One point that should be addressed is Paragraph 4 in the Hold Harmless Agreement between the City and the County~ Attorney Bryant read paragraph 4 of the agreement which states: "No fire hydrants, hose, or other devices intended for the extinguishment of fires shall be attached or connected to water lines connected to the City main, except in the case of an emergency, and these two particular lines could be used for the extinguishment of fires". -' I T'] 'I 3898 "Although I don't think you will have a problem with the County or -~ the Industrial Development Authority, in that regard, but because of the tenants of the Industrial Park being from other areas, corporations, home offices in other areas, we may have a problem with someone if there was a fire which caused extensive damage, one of the tenants may try to bring the City into a law suit, having this Hold Harmless Agreement determined null and void because we have not been abiding by it. I spoke with Kyle VanLandingham, the County Attorney, asked him if he felt the County Commission would have any objection to amending the Hold Harmless Agreement to include in paragraph 4: except for the connection of two holding tanks for the purpose of holding water for the extinguishment of fires. Attorney VanLandingham stated that he had no problems with this particular addition to the Hold Harmless Agreement and he felt like the County Commission would have no problem with it. So it would be my recommendation to avoid that problem. Other than that, I see no other problem with the Hold Harmless Agreement as far as allowing the connection of the water lines to these tanks. The County Commissioners meet this Thursday, so it might be possible to put the Hold Harmless Agreement before the County Commission for their meeting for some action". Councilman Douglas made a motion to proceed with the amendment of the Hold Harmless Agreement as the Attorney has advised the Council and give the Industrial Development Authority the authority to proceed with the connection of the water mains at their cost as agreed, subject to the approval of the County Commissioners on the amendment. Councilmen Thomas and Rubin seconded the motion. Mayor Chapman asked if there was any more discussion. Director Fortner asked, "Just for a point of clarification, the City was going to install the line and the meter up to the property line and then the IDA was going to have a plumber or someone to connect it from that meter to their tanks so we would not be connected with that directly, but supplying a fitting there for them to start from. It will take about three to fours weeks to obtain a meter. Unless Council objects I can order that meter and have it so we can expedite it as soon as possible or wait until it is approved". --- Council agreed to wait until everything is approved before ordering the meters. Mayor Chapman asked for a vote on the motion. Thomas Collins Douglas Rubin None Motion carried Mr. Rennie Berry, IDA representative, expressed his appreciation to the Council on behalf of the Industrial Development Authority. - N N NW N H R FACILITATE DEVELOPMENT OF A STREET Councilman Thomas suggested the Council table the agenda item until a representative appeared before the Council.

Mayor Chapman asked for a vote on the motion. Thomas Collins Douglas Rubin --- None Motion carried 3899 86-36 AGENDA ITEM %XII - DISCUSSION AND ACTION, BY COUNCIL. ON A REOUEST TO PUT AN ANNEXATION PROPOSAL ON THE NEXT CITY ELECTION Mayor Chapman opened the floor for discussion. Councilman Rubin stated, "I don't quite understand this, is it City wide? Also annexation, the state has already gave us 50 plus 1, also there is a ~%11 pending right now which was defeated by a 6 to 3 vote last year. 'And I hear from the grape vine that it is definently going to be passed this year in Tallahassee. So you don't even have to have your footage. The public should be notified on a couple of public hearings, so I think we are coming a little too fast with this, the State law will go over it anyhow. We are going too fast with it. Mr. Davis and I went all the way to the lake on both sides getting way more than 50%. I think we should wait on it." Mr. Rucker Wilcox, Residential Contractor/majority owner of property to be annexed, addressed the Council indicating the roads and property involved in the annexation request. Councilman Rubin stated, "I'm not against annexation, Lord knows all of us have been fighting it ever since it started. Besides we would love to get what the City is trying to- do. I think we have a little litigation there if you would ask our attorney. We can't put this on the ballot and hope they vote for it. I think that if sOmeone who owns it gets 50% of those 6 owners there, you get 3 names you've got it made. I'm afraid to do this beyond that because you will be violating the state law. Isn't that right Mr. Attorney?" Attorney Bryant, "That's incorrect Mr. Rubin. I think you have a number of misconceptions about the laws of annexation. The first one is what was before the legislature and that has nothing to do with this situation right here. We have discussed this in a previous meeting. That bill was specifically for the purpose of allowing municipalities to annex properties that were bordered by waterways. That bill has nothing to do with this situation. The COuncil could put on a ballot a referendum for annexation of this property if the Council adopted an ordinance for that fact. After we have the necessary public hearing to adopt the ordinance, if it is adopted, it will be placed on the ballot." Following discussion by Council, Councilman Douglas made a motion for the attorney to draft the necessary ordinance placing the annexation issue on the ballot. Councilman Thomas seconded the motion. Mayor Chapman asked for a vote on the motion. Yeas Thomas Collins Douglas Rubin None Motion carried MEETING RECESSED AT 3:15 P.M.

Thomas Rubin Collins None Motion carried ~ Councilman Rubin stated,"I hate to say the words that I am going to say now, but. I am forced to. Sometime in February an order was given to pave two streets by one of our Councilmen. Without it coming before this Council, without the bidding of the state of more than $3,500. Then there was trouble gallore and here I've got copies of letters, one is to Milton Davis, City of Okeechobee, notice that Jessie Joiner has a claim for amounts due. Well I don't know anything about paying this money. It did not come back to this Council. One check was made out for $20,800., 4-25-86. On 4-29-86 another check made out for $7,400. That comes to $28,200. I am against this so much and on tape, on tape, none of these Councilmen knew anything about it, of course they said that and under 3905 - · ..................... PlAY 0 6 1986 oath, except one. That was Mr. Collins, on tape he said he has the OK from ~wo attorneys that's good by him. On tape, Joiner was here, and he said that he took orders from Mr. Collins. I went down to the street sites and I was told there was already a contract. Yes we will pay him, the man did his work, but he was paved very shoddy. Also, it was taken out of the paving fund money, you've been jockeying around here for the last five months. The public is talking, phone calls, everything is being made over this whole thing. I've got no alternative right now, since Mr. Collins gave the order to do it on tape, but ask Mr. Collins to step down until this matter is settled, and it is not settled, I guarantee you it is in litigation. I make that in the form of a motion." Mayor Chapman stated, "You have heard the motion by Councilman Rubin'. Attorney Bryant stated the motion was out of order. The motion as stated was just a personal request. If the motion is to have Councilman Collins expelled from the Council for misconduct, that would be a different motion. Councilman Collins stated, 'May I say a few words, since I-am the one being accused. To start with I didn't say that I had the OK from two attorneys. I said I talked to one attorney and he called Mr. Bull which is a vast difference. Then he gave us what Mr. Bull had told him. And the second thing that Mr. Rubin that Sam said he was taking orders from me and it is on tape, Well, to start with - that is a lie. And anybody that says that I gave Sam the order to go to work on that road is telling a lie, whether it be Mr. Rubin or whoever. I could care less. Now I will have Mr. Joiner here at the next meeting and find out who he took his orders from, I will be happy to do that, But anybody that says I told Sam.to go to work or not to go to work is telling a lie. He was already working on that road when all of this came up and he went back over there and back to work. But I have not told him to work or not to work, to go home or not to go home or nothing else. The other deal that we talked about, I repeated and I asked Jerry what the situation was and Sam was with me at Jerry's office. Now previous to this, Mr. Rubin has said that I said that I talked to two attorneys, that is a lie. I didn't say that, I said that I talked to Jerry and Jerry called Mr. Bull. Now that is the truth. He also said that I had admitted that I carried Mr. Joiner and we went to my house and discussed it. That is a lie. We went to Mr. Bryant's office and discussed it. I would just like for people to know part of what did happen instead of just what Andy says happened." Councilman Rubin, "The tape says it." Councilman Collins, "No the tape does not say it, that is a lie". Mayor Chapman asked if there was any further discussion on the matter if not move on to the next item for discussion. n .~l Mavor Chapman asked the Council about the new sprinklers being stalle~ in the band stand park.
