Ms. Joan Williams of the Garden Club introduced Mr. Dan Sydner who gave a slide show presentation on the Community House. The slides showed that the eaves were rotten because there is not a gutter to protect the wood; code violations on electrical and handicapped access; also the concrete steps in the front are in violation of the codes. Sydner showed the metal ceiling and said that there were lots of unknowns in the building. O'Brien said that she does not see the costs for the repairs and renovations. Sydner said that it is on the last page. Monaghan asked where the funds would come from? The City, the Historical Society, and/or grants? Pearce stated that there are grants that can be applied for through the DCA. Cullen Chambers said that he has volunteered his services to write grants to help pay Sydner. Pearce said that $250,000 is a fair chunk of money and are you asking for seed money or the entire amount. O'Brien asked if there was a cost attached to bringing the building up to code. Sydner said that once you start with the electrical that the entire building should be done. Ms. Williams said that Mr. Sydner did all this work at no charge to the Garden Club. Mr. Todd Lanier requested a revocable license in order to build a dune crossover at the end of 18th Place. Sessions asked Lanier if he understood the process? Lanier answered yes. Revocable license from City, then the DNR permit and then building permit from the City. Jean McDowell, Chairman of the Greenspace and Ecotourism Committee, requested that Council approve the committee as a Council committee, to adopt the work - plan (copy attached) and allocate $5,000. to hire a consultant to get Tybee on the GIS map and for the City Attorney to work on two ordinances. Bob Braddo said that the City needs to identify sources. Braddo said that there is a statewide movement of a master plan titled Tourism 2010. The Savannah River trail and the March to the Sea from Atlanta to Tybee are being looked at in the Masterplan. Youmans said that Council did not appoint this committee. Pearce said that Bill Farmer did the appointments. Pearce said that Jean is asking that Council make this a Council appointed committee. Parker said that they have done an excellent job. Tiffany Dennis, Tybee Island Director of the YMCA gave an update on all the events that have been going on and of those that are starting up now or in the near future. Dennis said that the skate park was turned in last year as a multi use park. Dennis said that the teen center is going great and that on Saturday nights they show movies and eat pizza that is donated by Pizza on Wheels. Swimming lesson will be held in the pool at the Ocean Plaza starting in May. Water aerobics are held Monday, Wednesday and 1 1 1 Fridays at the Savannah Beach and Racquet Club pool. There will be a summer daily camp for the children on the island plus there will be participation with the Marine Science Center in there summer program. Dennis said that through fund raising that the Y now has $13,000 and the children have raise over $1,000 towards the skate park. Dennis stated that she is in the process of taking bids on the repair of the tennis courts behind City Hall. So far the bids are between $63,000 to $5,000. Monaghan congratulated Dennis on a fine job. Dennis said that the skate park will accommodate skateboards, roller blades and anything else on skates. There will be removable ramp so that a lot of functions can have use of the park. Session asked how many children are signed up. Dennis said no numbers so far. Mr. Robert Wells petitioned Council for use of a couple of classrooms and the cafeteria at the old school for starting the National Maritime Law Enforcement Academy. Wells said that he is willing to work with the YMCA on space sharing. Wells said that this academy would be held in the off season months and bring about 200 people to the beach. Wells introduced Major Dennis King, Legal Advisor for the Chatham County Sheriffs Department, John Right of the Sheriffs Reserves Unit and Harry Spirides who served in the Coast Guard with him. Parker said that there is one classroom that will be available when the dredging people move out. Monaghan stated that the cafeteria is used for many functions and activities. Ms. Libby Bacon read a letter (copy attached and becomes a part of these minutes) from her husband concerning the off street parking on Venetian and Chatham. Parker said that the City Manager, the City Marshall and the Chief of Police will look into this issue and come up with a solution. Ken Wade made a response to the parking issue stating that the no parking signs are from the City of Tybee Island and that an illegal business is being run out of Bacon's home. Parker announced that April is proclaimed as National Fair Housing Month. Tom Nash stated that the adjacent lots on 18th Place and 18th Terrace have been filled in 3 foot higher, this causes the flooding to property. Nash said that the City needs to investigate, enforce the 99 storm water ordinance, and take appropriate action. Pearce asked Hughes if he would follow through on this issue. Hughes said that there are enforcement problems with the storm water ordinance, but he will look into the matter. Kathryn Williams announced that Beach Sweep was this weekend at 10 a.m. at the Pier. Williams said that a multi -use skatepark is not feasible, we need a quality park at this time and then in the future have a hockey rink. Williams said that the time line of this project was approved and funded last year. Williams stated that Tim Malins has volunteered to oversee the project. Pearce asked if this was for skates only. Williams answered skateboards and in line skates. Youmans said that Council approved the idea of a skate park but not the funding. Mayor Parker opened the following public hearings, asked for comments, and then closed each hearing according to the rules and laws of the State of Georgia and Tybee Municipal Codes. Attorney Thomas Mahoney, Jr. presented Council with a petition from Penn Myrick for a minor subdivision on 18t Place PIN 4 -9 -6 -031. Mahoney said that the only thing before Council tonight is the request for the minor subdivision. Mahoney stated that the standards have been met and the ordinances have been followed. Mahoney said that there is not a new street, the lots meet and exceed the square footage requirements. 1 1 1 Mahoney said that Hussey, Gay, Bell and DeYoung needed more time to study the drainage plan. Mahoney stated that a drainage plan was submitted even though it was not required. Mahoney asked Council to treat this petition the same way they have done others in the past. Mahoney also stated that any building will and shall meet DNR requirements. Mahoney said that failure to approve subdivision would destroy the property value and violate rights. Pearce asked about the jurisdiction line for the dunes. Mahoney answered that issue is not before Council tonight. Sessions asked about the drainage plan. Mahoney answered that it was not a requirement but that they had anticipated that issue would come up so they had one done. Sessions asked if the drainage plan was complete. Mahoney answered yes it is, but it is not back to Byers from H.G.B. & DeY. O'Brien said that according to Section 5-4 -8 Storm Water Management the City Council does not have to request a drainage plan it is a requirement. O'Brien also noted that it was the City's obligation to minimize flood damage per section 5 -150. Hughes said that the ordinance Section 5-4 -8 Storm Water Management does require a drainage plan. Mahoney said that the City must have violated their ordinance because drainage plans were not submitted on other projects. Chris Kline said that Myrick knew where the property line and the DNR line was before he purchase the land. Kline said that a plat from 1996 shows the dune line. Kline stated that this property was subdivided into 3 lots and now Myrick has petitioned to divide one of those lots into 2 lots. Kline said that Myrick is getting exactly what he bought. Dr. Stuart Stevens, Director of DNR, said that there is some confusion concerning the jurisdiction law, it does not mean a no build zone but does required that the building be built to certain standards. Parker asked if the building was in the dunes. Stevens replied no, not in dunes. Sam Adams said that the Shore Protection Act clearly states that DNR should be the law. The dunes protect everything on Tybee and this will create an opportunity for disaster. Adams said that a breach anywhere effects all on the south end of the island Adams said that he opposes this request and that Council must choose between the safety of lives and property or the demands of a developer. Edward Damarjian, Susan Dulany, Todd Lanier, Josephine Doyle, Curtis Lewis, Sandra Luxenburg all spoke in opposition of the subdivision. Henry Levy, Chair of the Planning Commission, said the vote was 5 to 1 in favor of approval contingent upon no construction seaward of the dune juridiction line. Levy said that a mound of sand 5 to 7 feet high has been bulled dozed. Youmans said that Levy should state only the recommendations from Planning Commission. Mahoney said that Levy is going beyond his duties as Chair of the Planning Commission and the Council should look at the fact, the minor subdivision is the only request before you tonight. Pearce questioned the building plans submitted to the DNR that shows the structure over 35 feet in height. Mahoney said that he did not submit those plans and any variances would have to come back before Council. Parker thanked Dwayne Harris and Dr. Stuart Stevens for being present tonight in order to answer any questions. Attorney Thomas Mahoney presented Council with a Petition from Magnolia Investments for a minor subdivision at 117 Lewis Avenue PIN 4- 3 -5 -5. Mahoney said that the zoning is R -2 and that there are no variances being requested, no trees to be removed and the 20 foot easement is in place in order to get to Lot 28B. Mahoney said all requirements have been met. Levy said that Planning Commission voted 3 to 2 in favor of denial with one member abstaining because she is not comfortable with Section 5- 140(F). 1 Mark Curry presented Council with the petition for a site plan review for Ronnie Navon for the Waves at 705 First Street PIN 4- 3 -5 -13. Levy said that the Planning Commission voted 5 to 1 in favor of tabling because of no provisions for space on 2 °d floor storage/office. Hughes stated that Youmans has a conflict of interest in the rezoning of Lewis Avenue and would like Youmans remove himself from the room. Youmans said that he would not leave the room during the discussion and knows he can not vote on the issue when it comes before Council for a vote. Levy said the Planning Commission voted 5 to 1 in favor of rezoning from R -2 to R -1 -B beginning with house numbers 107 through 175. A petition was handed in with about 30 names opposing the rezoning. A lady from the audience stated that a lot of people on the first petition turned in at the March meeting did not understand what they were signing so their names are on this petition also. Kenn Wade presented Council with a petition for the rezoning of his family property located at 106 and 108 on the northeast side of Lewis Avenue from R -2 to C -2 Bergman PIN 4 -3 -6 -2 & 2B. Pearce asked what was planned for the lots. Wade said there are no plans to do anything. Wade asked that Council look at this as one parcel of land. Youmans said that if the entire requested is granted then you will have about 300 feet of Commercial —2 zoning on Lewis Avenue. Parker asked if C -2 cuts through one lot. Wade answered yes. Wade said that there is an existing structure on 106. Levy said the Planning Commission voted 4 to 2 for approval of rezoning. Levy said that zoning should follow the lot line. Keith Gay presented Council with a request for site plan review, a variance, and rezoning for Coral Investment Group at 1213 Highway 80 PIN 4- 26 -2 -7. Gay said that the variance is for 10 feet on front in order to place 2 Kiosks. The hardship is that trees would have to be removed otherwise in order to place all 7 kiosks. Gay stated that the property is now '/2 C -2 and'h R -1 -B, there are 3 buildings on the land. O'Brien questioned parking. Gay answered that the parking issue has been addressed. Levy said that the Planning Commission voted 8 to 0 in favor of the site plan approval because this would upgrade Tybee. Burke asked about the drainage plan. Byers said yes but no decision from H. G. B. & DeY. Byers said that Gay is working on drainage with Crawford. Hughes gave the history of the Hosti/Crawford drainage plan being worked on at this time. Levy said that the Planning Commission voted 8 to 0 in favor of the rezoning to C -2; and 4 to 3 in favor of the variance request. Ron Jacobs requested a minor subdivision at 203 Butler Avenue PIN 4- 4 -8 -2. O'Brien questioned the drainage plan. Jacobs answered that it will be addressed. Burke asked about the house already being torn down. Jacobs said that he got a demolition permit. Burke said that the house was over 50 years old, what about the Historic Review Board. Bargeron said that the house did not have anything of value left in it, it was falling down. Sessions asked if Cullen Chambers was notified. Bargeron answered no, but when we do know it will be of interest to him we do notify him. Richard Kautzman said he is favor but is concerned about the drainage. Levy said that Planning Commission voted 6 to 0 in favor of the minor subdivision. Denny McNeely asked about drainage and storm water. O'Brien said that Jacobs might not have been aware of the regulation since the ordinance was not checked off on the permit application. Mahoney presented Council with a petition for a minor subdivision for Frank Koncul at 102 Butler Avenue PIN 4- 4 -3 -1. Mahoney said that all requirements have 1 1 been met. The land is zoned R -T with elevation of 16 to 18 feet. Pearce asked about the drainage plan. Mahoney answered that he does not see where one was required or requested — natural drainage. Byers said that the drainage plan was approved with the site plan review. Planning Commission voted 6 to 0 in favor of the request. Byers presented the zoning text amendment for Section 8 -2 -010 Definitions — Peopleport stating that the Planning commission recommended to table for further study and discussion. Parker said that Council can not act on it since the Planning Commission recommended to table. Youmans stated yes we can. Byers said that the same recommendation was made for Section 8 -3 -300 Decks, Patios & Carports. Parker opened the meeting for business legally presented to council.

Parker APR-07-2000 10:59 METRO PLANNING COMMISSION 912 651 1480 P.03.06 Recommendations to City Council from the City of Tybee Island Greenspace and Ecotourism Committee 1. Recommend approval of the Workplan as the beginnings of a planning document to be used as a guide for further planning and implementation of that planning related to greenspace preservation and ecotourism coordination and development. 2. Recommend that the City fund a portion of the tasks included in the Workplan in the amount of $5,000. This amount would be used to transfer the Areas of Critical Concern Report completed for the City by Rachael Perkins in 1995, to one or two GIS coverages. Update the coverage using the services of a consultant and the MPC graphics department. This will enable the coverage to be overlaid with other coverages including Chatham County Parcel data, NWI wetlands coverage, and stormwater drainage areas. Using GIS as a tool the City will be able to easily analyze its present inventory of permanently protected greenspace and identify the specific areas that the City want to protect. These two tasks, identifying present greenspace and identifying future greenspace, are the fist substantial steps towards developing a greenspace progam. A Tybee Island Greenspace Program in cooperation with Chatham County could allow some of the funds from the Georgia Greenspace Program recently established to be used for the City of Tybee Island. 3. Recommend Rachael Perkin's involvement in the first tasks as stated above. Because of her familiarity and expertise with the natural areas of Tybee, and her already complete report on Areas of Cntical Concern, it would be most efficient and least costly to hire Rachael to conduct the update and identification of future greenspace needs on Tybee. If not alone, Rachael's knowledge and skills should be utilized in cooperation with another consultant in completing the Tybee Island Greenspace and Ecotourism Plan and implementation. 4. Recommend that City Council request the City Attorney to develop an ordinance that protects the sand dunes of Tybee Island. 5. Recommend that City Council request the City Attorney to develop an ordinance that will protect an undisturbed 25 -foot vegetative buffer which protects our wetlands, other water resources, and our scenic views responsible for the existing ecotourism on Tybee. 1 1 APR -07 -2000 10:59 METRO PANNING COMMISSION 912 651 1480 P.04i06 Tybee Island Greerispace & Eco - Tourism Committee WOrkplan 1.

In Tybee Island there are two public hearings held for each zoning action or subdivision procedure. One before the Planning Commission and the other before the Mayor and Council. The Public Hearing before the Mayor and Council is by record the official public hearing. The purpose of each public hearing is to discuss information pertinent to the particular action or procedure.

Karp, CPA Dennis W. Ronning, CPA Steven M. Arkin, CPA Richard D. Tindol, CPA Bradley A. Lucas, CPA A.L. Karp (1925 -1969) We are pleased to confirm our understanding of the services we are to provide for the City of Tybee Island, Georgia. We will examine management's assertion regarding the effectiveness of the internal control over financial reporting. Our examination will be conducted in accordance with attestation standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants and, accordingly, will include obtaining an understanding of the internal control, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of the internal control, and performing such other procedures as we consider necessary to enable us to express an opinion about whether the entity has maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting based on the control criteria. If our opinion is other than unqualified, we will discuss the reasons with you in advance. It for any reason, we are unable to complete the examination, we will not issue a report as a result of this engagement. Because of inherent limitations in any internal control, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Also, projections of any evaluation of the internal control to future periods are subject to the risk that the internal control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the controls may deteriorate. However, during the examination, if we become aware of reportable conditions, which are significant deficiencies in the design or operation of the internal control, we will communicate them to you in a separate letter. We understand that you will present your assertion about the effectiveness of the internal control in a representation letter rather. In addition, at the conclusion of our examination, we will request certain other written representations from you about the effectiveness of the internal control and related matters. You are responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control, as well as evaluating the effectiveness of those controls. We may advise you about appropriate criteria or assist in the development of the assertion, but the responsibility for the assertion remains with you. We understand that you will provide us with the basic information required for our examination and that you are responsible for the accuracy and completeness of that information. We estimate that our fees for these services will be $5,500 and is based on anticipated cooperation from your personnel and the assumption that unexpected circumstances will not be encountered during the examination. If significant additional time is necessary, we will discuss it with you and arrive at a new fee estimate before we incur the additional costs. Our invoices for these fees will be rendered each month as work progresses and are payable on presentation. We appreciate the opportunity to be of service to you and believe this letter accurately summarizes the significant terms of our engagement. If you have any questions, please let us know. If you agree with the terms of our engagement as described in this letter, please sign the enclosed copy and return it to us. KARP, RONNING, ARKIN & TINDOL, P.C.
