the County. It was explained that these are two separate

As part of the Annexation negotiations for putting in
water lines, the $500 assessment for the Town of Juno
Beach was waived if the lines were put in before the
annexation became effective. The lines were not
completed before the annexation occurred and the $500
assessment is in question. P&Z Director Kenney suggested
that the town staff is recommending that the fee be
waived if the residents hooked up into the water system
before December 31, 1995 and that it apply only to
property owners that owned prior to January 1, 1995.
Council member Burns stated that we did not tell the
kresidents there would be a time limit for waiving the
hookup fee and feels it is unfair to charge them because
the construction was not completed by no fault of theirs.
He stated that before voting on this the staff should
send letters to the property owners.
Property owners Robert Blomquist stated that he thought
the letters were a good idea.
Vi Walters stated that there was FEMA funds available for
the erosion problem which needed to be approved by the
council.
Nancy Anes, Juno By the Sea, thanked Charlie, Gail and
Frank for coming to the meeting this morning.
Carol Gibbons, Venus Drive, stated that the residents
should be careful about going to other agencies and them
passing the buck. She stated that Juno Beach has a hard
working council and staff.
