STAFF IW'RITER
Twelve veais after St. Johns
County voters decided to go
from a-seven-member County
Commission to a five-member
board, they'll have a chance to
switch back to seven commis-
sioners this fall.
The St. Johns County
Commission voted unani-
mously last week to place a ref-
erendum on the November bal-
lot to let voters decide whether
to change county government
back to the way it was for 10
years, until 2000.
That was when the former
seven-member commission
was completely changed to a
five-member board, each elect-
ed by all county voters, which
was OK'd by voters in 1994..
If approved, this year's meas-
ure would return the structure
to the way it was in the 1990s:
instead being chosen county-
wide, five would be chosen by
district, and two would be
elected by all county voters.
"That's a decision that the
people can make,"
Commissioner Ben Rich, who
presented the referendum pro-
posal at the March 21 County
Commission meeting, said last
week.
From 194-5 to 1990, the St.
Johns County Commission
consisted of five members,

PV utility


FROM STAFF
One month after purchasing
the Ponte Vedra utility St.
Johns Service Co., St. Johns
County has notified customers
that the utility has violated
state water monitoring rules.
Thousands of the county's
new water and sewer cus-
tomers in Ponte Vedra Beach
received letters in the past few
days explaining the violation ,
which "occurred prior to St.
Johns County's purchase of
this utility," according to the
notice.
The violation, a failure to
monitor for certain pollutants
in the fourth quarter of 2005,
"is not an immediate risk,"
according to the notice dated
March 20.
The required monitoring, for
disinfection byproducts con-
sisting of trihalomethanes and
haloacetic acids, took place
before and after the violation,
when the byproducts were
found to be "super low, said
Barry Stewart. with the county
utility department.
Drinking water with certain
levels of the "byproducts over
some years may experience
problems with their liver, kid-
neys or central nervous system
arid may have ari increased risk

Stephen Ames, a native of Trinidad now living in Canada, raises the Waterford crystal Sunday fol-

of cancer, according to the
notice.
Steward said the violation
was due to "operator over-
sight" and did not come to
light until after the county
closed on the purchase in late
February, when the county
received a letter from the state
Department of Environmental
Protection.
Before the closing, several
citizen groups as well as the
Ponte Vedia Beach Chamber of
Commerce told commissioners
that the $26.8 million price tag
for the utility was too high.
There also were concerns
about backup problems experi-
enced by some homeowners in
Marsh Landing and Dolphin
Cove.
"The county utility depart-
ment should have caught these
violations when they were sur-
veying the company," Dan
MacDonald, a resident of
Marsh Landing, said this week.
"It's poor oversight on their
part."
MacDonald said the viola-
tion also is indicative of the
company's "contempt for both
county and state regulations."
"And it's the same contempt
that they showed for the Marsh
Landing and Dolphin Cove
injured parties," he said.

switch to charter


PV woman's fondness for trivia


parlayed to spot on Jeopardy!


by KATHY HARTMAN
EDITOR
When Ponte Vedra resident
Christine Hoffman watches
herself as a contestant on tele-
vision's "Jeopardy!" Friday, it'll
be like she's living the experi-
ence for the first time.
"It's just so fast," Hoffman,
28, said about her 15 minutes
of fame fielding answers from
Alex Trebek, host of the
answer-and-question game
show that premiered in 1984.
Hoffman said she plans to
watch the show, which airs at
7:30 p.m. on NBC, at Fionn
MacCool's Irish Pub &
Restaurant in Jacksonville
Beach, where she is a regular
for; Monday night trivia.
"I know a little bit about a
lot of things, and I'm a good
guesser," Hoffman said this
week in a telephone interview
from her office in Jacksonville
Beach, where she is Beaches
area unit executive director for
the American Cancer Society.
However, she added, "I did-
n't guess very well on the actu-
al show."
Contestants are required to
stay mum about their success
until after their show has aired.
The self-described "Navy
kid" said she has long been a
favorite of board games in gen-
eral and "Jeopardy!" in particu-
lar.
"I have always watched it.
Ever since I was a kid, my fam-
ily has always played Trivial

Pursuit for fun," said Hoffman,
who attended Neptune Beach
Elementary School and gradu-
ated from Fletcher High and
the University of Florida.
Hoffman said she filled out
an application to be a
"Jeopardy!" contestant in
October.
"I just got a bug last year to
start doing those things I just
always wanted to do," she said.


When she went to St.
Petersburg, Fla., for an audi-
tion, she said, she did so with-
out telling friends and with no
expectations.
"I reallU didn't want people
asking me a lot of questions. .
and I didn't want people mak-
ing me nervous.
"I had met people who had
auditioned for it before, so I
didn't have any expectations


of actually passing" the audi-
tion, she said.
At the audition, an audience
of about 100 seated applicants
gave written responses to
"Jeopardy!"-like answers
shown on a screen. She was
one of six applicants chosen
for a mock game, she said.

Frustrated by what they say
is lack of responsiveness by
county commissioners, a com-
mittee told members of the
Ponte Vedra Beaches Coalition
this week that a switch to char-
ter government could help.
Coalition member Tina
MNcGough and Jerry Cameron,
legislative aide to County
Commissioner Ben Rich.
explained a charter govern-
ment proposal at Monday's
Coalition meeting at the Ponte
Vedra Beach Branch Library.
One of the provisions of
charter government allows an
elected official to be recalled
from office by a vote of the
people.
McGough and Cameron
stressed that over the next year,
the notion of charter govern-
ment could be presented to
other civic groups as propo-
nents refine the charter docu-
ment with input from resi-
dents.
They are aiming to have a
charter referendum on the
November 2008 ballot.
"We want to know if we're
on target or not," McGough
told fellow Coalition members
Monday.
Under the proposed charter
government, elected county
officials would be limited to
two, four-year terms and the
current $500 limit on cam-
paign contributions would be
lowered.
Also, campaign contribu-
tions would have to be filed
electronically, which would
allow the public to view the
contributions online and ana-
lyze them easily.,
The proposal also includes a
provision requiring candidates
to live in the district they are
running for before an election


- as opposed to moving into
the district no later than sLx
months after being elected, as
is currently required.
Among those giving feed-
back Monday was George
Taylor, a veteran and a member
of a committee that looked at
moving to a charter govern-
ment in the early' 1990s.
The charter proposal didn't
pass when it went before voters
in November 1994, but Taylor
said he thinks the new charter
initiative may have better luck.
Taylor said he think the
group behind the current char-
ter proposal has learned from
the shortcomings of the earlier
group.
He said one of the mistakes
his committee made was not
informing the public early in
the process of drafting the
charter, which generated a lot
of skepticism.
Taylor also said he thinks the
county is more ready for
change than it was 12 years
ago.
Another problem with the
previous charter proposal was a
lack of support from the coun-
ty's constitutional officers -
the sheriff, the clerk of the
court, the tax collector, the
property appraiser and the
supervisor of elections.
The previous charter propos-
al took away some of the finan-
cial powers from the clerk of
the court and changed other
responsibilities of the officers.
But Cameron said the new
proposal leaves the constitu-
tional offices "exactly as they
are."
"1I can't see how it [the char-
ter] would do anything but
improve their situation,"
Cameron said.
He said the officers 'merely
want to see the draft of the

Jeopardy! Airing Friday at 7:30 p.m.


Continued from A-1
Then in early January came a
telephone call inviting'
Hoffman to Los Angeles for a
taping scheduled March 7.
One week's worth of shows is
taped in one day, she said.
"It runs like clockwork. I was
amazed."
Although her recollection is
blurred about much of her on-
air experience, her roommate
- who went with her to L.A.
- was impressed that she sup-
plied the answer "The
Medicis," Hoffman said.
She knows that the Medici
Family was a force in 12th- and


13th-century Florence, Italy,
she said, adding, "That's pretty
much all I know" about the
Medicis.
In the category "allitera-
tion," Hoffman pulled from
her father's lessons about the
constellations.
The answer was "Pleiades,"
and the question was "What is
the Seven Sisters."
"I had to take a couple wild
guesses," she said. "What else
are you going to do? Stand
there? And I wasn't going to do
that."
Hoffman said she had a "fan-
tastic" experience as a


"Jeopardy!" contestant.
"I'm very glad that I went,"
she said. "I'm glad I can check
it off of my list of life's things
to do."
She just wishes her instruc-
tions on the pronunciation of
"Ponte Vedra" had been heed-
ed, she said.
"My roommate tells me they
said 'Ponte Vedra' wrong, and I
went over and over it with
them."

St. Johns OK's 'pink' river bridge


by LAURA FOWLER
STAFF WRITER
The St. Johns Board of
County Commissioners adopt-
ed a resolution Tuesday to sup-
port a southerly location near
the Shands Bridge for the new,
St. Johns River bridge.
Of four proposed routes for
the'bridge named the pur-
ple, black, brown and pink cor-
ridors the pink route falls
most in line with the commis-
sioners' resolution..
From Clay County, the route


would start at the intersection
of Branan Field-Chaffee Road
and Blanding Boulevard and
would head in a southeasterly
direction toward State Road 16
and the Shands Bridge.
The route would join 16 at
the west end of the Shands
Bridge and would follow the
existing alignment of the
bridge until entering St. Johns
County.
Then the route would take a
northeastern, turn and finally
intersect with 1-95 about 3.5


miles south of the County
Road 210 interchange.
, Last week, the Clay County
Commission voted to support
the pink route.
* At Tuesday's commission
meeting, several St. Johns
County and Clay County resi-
dents -- many wearing pink
shirts to make a statement -
spoke in favor of the pink cor-
ridor.

sen countrywide.
The switch: back. to five
members, but with each elect-
ed by all county voters, was
OK'd by voters in 1994 and
phased in beginning in 1996,
Rich said while he was cam-
paigning for his current posi-
tion, several residents asked if
he would support placing a ref-
erendum for a seven-member
board on the ballot, and he
said he would.
Rich said last week that he
was keeping that promise by
proposing the ballot measure.
If, the., efexendumr, passes,
Rich said he believes cam-
paigning will become less cost-
ly because candidates will tar-
get only voters in their district
rather than countywide.
He said contributions from
issue groups such as developers


wouldn't be needed as much.
"Those [district] seats can
basically be taken the Way I
took this one: going door to
door. You can do it on shoe.
leather," Rich said.
"The developers would have
a difficult time controlling
those five district seats."
Commissioner Cyndi
Stevenson said she agrees that
the people should decide how
many representatives they
want on the commission.
She said she is concerned,
however, about making such a
change before the next census,
in 2010.
Stevenson said if the referen-
dum passes, the "heavily popu-
lated and rapidly growing
areas," such as Ponte Vedra and
northwestern St. Johns
County, may be underrepre-
sented.
Adding two commission
seats, she said, may increase
the difficulty of finding good
candidates to run.,
"A lot of really great people
aren't willing to do it [run for
-office] because'of the intense.
scrutiny and frankly the mud-
slinging that happens,"
Stevenson said.
Commissioner Karen Stern


agreed and said the criticism
that sometimes comes with the
job can deter future candi-
dates.
On the other hand, Stem
and Stevenson said, potential
candidates may be attracted to
districtwide, rather than coun-
tywide, campaigning.
Commissioner Bruce
MNaguire of Ponte Vedra who,
lost in his district, District 4, in
the Sept. 10, 2002, Republican
primary but won countrywide
- said Monday that he cam-
paigned four years ago to bring
back the seven-member board.
Although there may be
advantages, and disadvantages
in having seven members,
Maguire said, he thinks "the
pro's slightly outweigh the
cons." ,
"It could create a longer
commission meeting schedule,
but at the same time it might
create a healthier debate, too,"
said Maguire, who is running
forreelection this year.
Both Stern and Stevenson
said they would not encourage
voters to vote for or against the
referendum. They said they are
merely going to encourage
people to vote.

Charter: Failed in earlier attempt


Continued from A-1

charter before they agree to
support it.
McGough and Cameron said
the charter referendum can be
placed on the ballot in one of
three ways.
The Board of County
Commissioners can appoint a
charter commission to research
the subject and propose a draft.
The citizens can petition the
commissioners for a charter
commission.
Or the state legislature can
approve putting the measure
to a vote in St. Johns County.
Cameron said his. group is
going straight to the top to ask
the legislature to OK the ballot
item for St. Johns County.
He4 said the charter group
will ask county commissioners
for their support, but he said
there's no need to organize a
charter commission since the
research and drafting has
already been done by the cur-
rent committee.
McGough said the process of
,refining the draft of the charter
through feedback could take


anywhere from six months to a
year.
She said while all comments
are welcome, the group is not
open to making major changes
to the charter only small
adjustments.


She said the group fears that
any major changes td the char-
ter draft would compromise its
integrity in making govern-
ment officials more account-
able for their actions.

Letters to the editor:

Wal-Mart is not needed in NB


To. the editor:
A new Wal-Mart at the
Beaches is a bad idea and
here's why:
1. Traffic. The traffic is bad
enough now but wait till all
the new condos fill up and and
a new Wal-Mart is permitted to
come in!
2. The other stores. A new
Wal-Mart would probably put
out of business the entire K-
Mart Plaza (which only recent-
ly has come back to life),


Winn-Dixie and possibly even
Publix. This would give
Beaches residents fewer choic-
es in where they could shop
and would probably. leave
another plaza empty. Where is
the gain?
My choice would be to
encourage a diversity of small-
er shops to fill up the vacant
plaza.

To the editor:
Recently you may have seen
my name in the media as an
advocate for soccer fields at the
beach. Just last weekend the
group of girls known as
Cyclone Soccer entered and
played in the State cup tourna-
ment in Sanford, Florida.
No, they didn't win, howev-
er this group of 19 girls ages 12
thru 16 played 3 games in 23
hours and were very competi-
tive. Despite going to the tour-
nament minus 3 starters and
lack of quality practice fields
they persevered.
Soccer is one of the top
sports, at the Beach yet quality
fields are only given lip service.
To those parents, coaches and
sponsors, thank you for your
support and belief in the
Principles of Cyclone Soccer.


To the girls, you are truly a
class group. Opposing coaches
could not believe that we
weren't a club team. The refer-
ees commented to the coaches
that we were the best represen-
'tatives to come out of north
Florida in a long time.
To those ,who for whatever
reason chose to say one thing
and door not do anything to,
assist with quality fields; I ask
only that you remember that
our youth listened, and saw
what was said and what was
delivered.
If they become cynical and
do not respond to statements
from' our adult leadership wee
must remember that our words
and actions are the tools they
used to format their actions.

Keep the fun in the beach


To the editor:
I am so sick of the beach
mentality regarding outdoor
dining in Jacksonville Beach,
Neptune Beach and Atlantic
Beach. This is Florida people
like to dine outside to relax,
people watch and listen to
good music. Every "hip" beach
o (Cmmunity I have ever visited
S.welcomes the outdoor experi-
ence. It's what draws people
together socially. First Street
Grille had it all but that's his-
tory, unfortunately.
Now Neptune Beach is going


to make a big deal about let-
ting Wal-Mart in and being too
close to Atlantic Boulevard.
Has Mayor Brown driven down
Atlantic Boulevard lately? I can
think of about five businesses
that are only 50 feet from the
boulevard.
What are these good 'ol boys
Brown' and Sharp thinking?
Life- is-a beach. Too bad these
people are trying to take the
fun out of it.

What happened to height limits?


To the editor
I thought we voted for a 35
foot height limit for all new
buildings in Jacksonville Beach
that had not been permitted
prior to the vote? ,
On 1st Street between 9th
Avenue and 10th Avenue, there
is a new duplex being built.
Today the building is covered
with particle board exterior,
which comes in 4 foot by 8 foot,
sheets.. I can easily see 32 ft on
top of an 8 ft 'garage!. This adds.
up to 40 feet last time I checked.
The parcel sold last summer so


there was no predispositioned
court case and there is 10no legal,
reasoning the city council
and/or the board of adjustments
could make this legal.
It isn't the most popular thing
to cry foul, but FOUL!
Who ever allowed this should
be fired, retired, tarred and
feathered and asked to leave
town! ,

TPC moV


nn 2007 The Players
Championship is moving
to early May. This time,
next year we won't be talking
about who just won, but who
is going to win. Actually,
with the exception of the TPC
planning committee, most of
us will be be speculating on
who'll take the Masters! Let's
admit it!
Moving TPC's date i bril-

is on Augusta and not Ponte'

In response to Mayor
Wolfson's recent letter, it is
not surprising that he and
certain members of the Atlantic
Beach city commission are try-
ing to minimize the political
fallout on what has so far been
proposed and/or discussed
regarding changes to the city's
building code. However, what
remains at the center of this
controversy are the commis-
sion's actions to date.
In spite of what side one
might take in this' ongoing
"McMansion" debate, the com-
mission arbitrarily denied a
property owner's request to sub-
divide a lot, even though the
city's attorney and the planning
and zoning director both said
they had no basis for this
action. It took a 'lawsuit
brought by the property owner
to get the city to grant the
owner what they were legally
entitled to in the first place,
after the city spent over $20,000
in taxpayer dollars to hire an
outside attorney who also
advised them they were wrong,
and would lose in court. In
response, the commission has
now put a moratorium on any
lot divisions for an unspecified
period of time.
The city has recently drafted
legislation proposing the forma-
tion of a Large Lot, Single
Family district in Atlantic Beach
that, if passed, would virtually
preclude any subdivision of lots
going forward. It is yet to be
determined; but this proposed'
legislation could cost certain
Atlantic Beach property owners
$10 million to $15 million in
lost property value.
The city has drafted proposed
legislation (Ordinance 90-06,
amending Section 24-172 of the
city code) which, as Mayor
Wolfson recently wrote, has yet
to be adopted. However, this
legislation establishes a more
stringent level of restrictions for
new home construction and
remodeling. Ironically the first
two pages of .the ordinance
would lead the reader to believe
that its purpose is to promote
health, peace and safety in our
community and that it is not
meant to infringe on property
rights or "restrain individual
preferences in residential archi-
tecture." But the next 12 pages


STEVE

GUEST COLUMNIST

do exactly that. In my opinion
the way this is being presented,
saving one thing and doing the
opposite, is a little disingenu-
ous.
The current commission now
commonly defends its actions
by proclaiming that nothing
has been decided regarding
these new regulations, and that
all this is just a continuation of'
a "community character study,"
started several years ago by the
previous commission. In addi-
tion to the $58,000 paid in
2005, the current commission,
recently authorized another
$53,000 of taxpayer dollars to
be paid to the Colorado land
planning frm to further study.
and formulate these guidelines
and regulations. On the front
page of the study it says these
guidelines are "to serve as a
guide to assist property owners,
builders, designers and archi-
tects in interpreting the new
requirements" which are clearly
aimed at Limiting the size of
houses, limiting the, buildable
area jon each lot, 'limiting cer-
tain architectural styles, etc. But
if the commission is saying they
don't intend to adopt many of
these recommended changes to
the building code, why keep
spending considerable tax payer
dollars to have, the land planner
come back and explain them to
us?
Most important in this
process, the city commission
has had discussions as .to
whether any Atlantic Beach res-
ident could rebuild a house just
as it was, if the house were
unfortunately destroyed (hurri-
cane, fire, etc.). Conversely,
would our homes have to be re-


built in compliance with any
newly-passed, more stringent
building guidelines, if and when
'these proposed guidelines are
adopted? This is a pretty sim
ple, straightforward yes or no
question. Can we build our
homes back, just like they are, if
destroyed for whatever reason?
The commission needs to
answer this question sooner
rather than later, irregardless of
what it does with all the other
proposed building code
changes. If we can't build our
homes back just like they were,
wouldn't this in fact dramatical-
ly change the character of
Atlantic Beach going forward?
Finally, at the most recent
meeting, the commission
passed a first reading of an ordi-
nance to designate swimming
pools as a 40 percent impervi-
ous surface, instead of the for-
mer 100 percent pervious desig-
nation. The St. Johns River
Water Mgt. District considers.
pools as 100 percent pervious
surface. The result is fewer
and/or smaller pools or a small-
er house on your lot. The hard-
est hit will be those homeown-.
ers with smaller lots.
The magnitude of all these
new legislative proposals has
recently caught the attention of
a large number of Atlantic
Beach property owners, particu-
larly as they learn more and
more about what is being dis-
cussed, and, how it could impact
them. Through grass roots pub-.
lic awareness, a group of citizens
has now come forward ques-
tioning the wisdom of these
proposed building code revi-
sions. And some homeowners
are getting a little nervous as to
where this is all heading.
Yes the citizens have been
allowed to provide some level of.
input at public meetings, but it
is still unclear whether anyone
is really. listening. However,
now that citizen awareness and'
interest has grown exponential-
ly, there will be more scrutiny
from the Atlantic Beach citizens.
going forward. In support of'
Mayor Wolfson's recent com-
ments, -I too would encourage
everyone to get involved.

S he's been gone nearly 10
years, but she was all
over the house. She Was
in every drawer we cleaned
out; she was remembered in
every pot and pan and plate
pulled out and placed on
tables; she was in every cup-
board, every closet, every cor-
ner..
Fannie Lee Miller, the per-
son, left her house; and this
Earth on Nov. 29,.1996, but
she failed to take her person-
ality and personal effects with
her. She left plenty of both.
If my mother-in-law ever
threw away a get-well card
over her years of various ail-
ments all of which she beat
except the last one.- it was a
mistake. You could date her
illnesses by the bundles of
cards. One of them was
marked the summer of 1995.
Its twine held 68 cards I
counted them sent to her
after she broke her hip in a
fall inside the Wright Brothers
Museum in Kitty Hawk, N.C.,
and underwent surgery in
Elizabeth City.
Another bundle .c3ntai.ned a
brief lettF from: a former gov.-
ernor, sending his regrets after
hearing that Henry Miller,
Fannie's husband, had suf-
fered a heart attack. But it was
she who had the heart attack.
Oh, well, she may have
thought, wrong name but a
nice letter. I'll keep it.
Mrs. Miller kept clippings of
columns and stories of mine
that I barely 'remember writ-
ing and others that I tried to
forget. When Jimmy Carter
was inaugurated president,
she kept the whole paper; she
kept clippings announcing
expansions and grand open-
ings; she kept clippings about
friends who had done good
things. Getting engaged,' to
her, was a good thing. I'd
been looking for weeks for a
special edition remembering
the 1936 tornado that leveled
Gainesville, Ga. I could have
saved time by checking Mrs.
Miller's chest of drawers.
My mother-in-law moved
and talked so fast, you some-
times thought she wasn't pay-.
ing attention. But she noticed
everything, and she made
notes.
Our older daughter found a
1928 book of devotionals that
belonged to Mrs. Miller's
mother, Ethel Small. Next to
the devotional for Nov. 14,
Mrs. Miller had written
"1967" and this reminder:
"The last time Mama read in
her Bible." Her mother died at
Thanksgiving in 1967.
My father-in-law and his
sister, Mable, along with a
caregiver, kept the Miller
house going until last sum-
mer. They died a month apart,
he in June at 94, she in July at
98. So here we were, eight
months later, cleaning out the
home, making room for a
young couple who want to
rent the place while their
house is being built.
This was the second house-
clearing for my wife and me.
The first came after my moth-
'r, needing around-the-clock
care, moved to a nursing
home.
Now all" of our parents are
.gone, ,but not completely. We
have tangible memories from
each of them. Their personali-
ties remain.
It's too bad somebody in
the family didn't keep those
get-well cards Mrs. Miller
saved. Maybe it's not too bad.
Somebody behind us would
have to go through them one
more time.

Lack of

foresight

can be a

dangerous

thing to all

To the editor:
The Wal-Mart setback issue is
just one more example of town
government lack of, foresight
when. implementing zoning
and 'land use; changes to
"enhance character" or other
politically correct trends of the
times. Now, Wal-mart, must-
comply with a new. require-
ment in the city's Land
Development Regulations, and
now must seek a variance to
put the building toward the
rear of the property, where past
regulation allowed. This non-
sense 'is occurring due to the
transient nature of city govern-
ment, with various commis-
sioners and mayors, coming
and going, and in the process
implementing their own politi-
cally correct agendas without
regard to long and short term
effects on the community. This
issue must now be debated,
argued, analyzed and paralyzed
by commissioners, on top of
their already busy schedules.
The very same changes are
about to occur in Atlantic Beach,
with the "Community
Character Stud>y" conducted by
the Winter & Company, import-
ing and duplicating planning
studies from other towns such as
Durango, Aspen, Sacramento,
Carmel, and others, and by
manipulating community
involvement workshops to stir
up fear that the "Community
Character" is being replaced by
"McMansions" and other
"undesirable development". The
Community Character Study
addresses Atlantic Beach as a
resort area and does not address
the fact that Atlantic Beach has
evolved into a very popular and
highly desirable upscale suburb
of lacksonsille, based on its
eclectic individualism 'andl'ari-
ety ofa ttRilct. iYal diffrences.-
By implementing restrictive
concepts such as Floor Area
Ratio (primarily a commercial
concept), reducing building cov-
erage to 40 percent of lot size,
forcing garage doors to be less
than 30 percent of the front
facade, creating virtual (imagi-`
nariy floor area deficits, and
severely limiting wall plate'
height and wall lengths, all
described in the "Report on
Potential Changes to the
Residential Development
Standards" dated October 2005
which was removed from the
City of Atlantic Beach website at.
coab.us and now- just reported
under Community Character i,
the amended code will stifle cre-
ative design and individuality
by enforcing a "cookie cutter"
doctrine that will repeatedly be
appealed on a case by case sce-,
nario., requiring a large amount
of time and resources from the
City's administrative employees.
The study uses a premise of a 50
X 130 lot average, but a Duval
County Property Appraisers
Office report indicates that 33
percent of Atlantic Beath's lots
are less than .12 acres, or
approximately 5000O sq ft. This
means that future houses Uill be
significantly smaller than what,
are allowed under the current
code, and the "encouragement"
by the amended code putting
garages in the backward will
eliminate safe playspaces for
children of generations to come.
I suppose we can send them out
into the streets to play.
Before knee-jerk tampering
and rush-job implementation of
amended "copy-cat code" iruin
100 years of local code evolution
in Atlantic Beach, our cit' lead-
ers need to step back and realize
that this started out as a
"Community 'Character
STUDY"'. So let's study it. As a
community, we can gradually
reduce less desirable develop-
ment without a code overhaul
and without trampling on pri-
vate property rights. We can
respectfully allow our. perma-
nent administrative employees,
to do the jobs they were hired to
do, ahd not try to fire them or
micromanage them. Let the
Mayors and Commissioners
serve their temporary terms, and .
allow the unique and eclectic


town of Atlantic Beach to con-
tinue to evolve and remain one
of north Florida's most desirable
.places to live. Save Atlantic
Beach, It's Your Property, Stop
the Amendment.

sonable dialogue will best
determine what that means
for our city our entire city.
Our position is that, yes,
property values are very
important, butso are property,
rights -- such as the right of
one homeowner not losing
sunshine and breezes due to
another owner's new home
looming over theirs.
We recall that this whole
process was based, first and
foremost, on maintaining the
character of our community -.
not maximizing land values at
all cost. On that note, we,
share that our daughter was in
a serious skateboarding acci-
dent last weekend on an
Atlantic Beach street. \\'Within
seconds, neighbors were at
her side, called for emergency
medical attention, and locat-
ed our home phone number
off of her cell phone.
We can't help but wonder if
residents walled off behind
oversized homes with little
street-focused frontage could
have reacted similarly? Or
whether property "investors."
could have at all?
Woody IVinfree

Atlantic' Beach


To the editor
As a resident of Atlantic
Beach, and a business/commer-
cial property owner of Neptune
Beach, I am very .concerned
with large issues that face the
two communities. In Atlantic
Beach, we have a heated debate
over concerns for how, if at all,
to control development of resi-
dential properties. In Neptune
Beach, the modern-day jugger-
naut Wal-Mart is eying a long
dormant commercial property
for its own development. These
issues seem unrelated but both
evoke a similar, and self-serving,
response from many of our citi-
zens.
When. 'important matters
such as these are measured by
how they directly impact our
individual pocket books, we are
failing in our jobs as citizens,
neighbors, parents and public
officials \'hen we look only to
the immediate and short term
gain we believe we will enjoy
from unlimited personal proper-
ry rights iSave Atlantic Beach's
position, or from an increased
tax base \V'al-Marti, we are
ignoring the long term needs of
'our cities and the quality of life
that attracted us here in the first
place. We didn't move here to
maximize our property values,
or because there was a substan-
tial tax base. We chose our love-
ly beach communities for the
quality of life each affords us.
.-Arguing for unlimited tax rev-
enue in Neptune Beach, is irre-


sponsible. I applaud
Councilman Weldon's strong
opposition to the prospect of a
development by Wal-Mart.
Make no mistake: Neptune
Beach and Atlantic Blvd will
never be the same once this
, giant moves into town. We
don't need more tax base nearly
as much as we need to retain the
character and ambience of
Neptune Beach.
Arguing for unlimited proper-
ty rights in Atlantic Beach is
similarly short-sighted and just
plain greedy. Our current code
clearly, needs some work so the
rights of neighbors are also a
consideration in residential
design and development. A
claim that some restiictions on
the allowable scale of construc-
tion will reduce resale values of
our properties points to the
wrong goal. Are we really living
in Atlantic Beach and building
our houses to further increase
the already inflated resale values
of our properties? Are we here
just so we can. cash out our
homes for personal gain? We
should be more interested in
protecting the character of our
overall community. In some
cases community rights must
'trump individual property
rights.
I encourage each of us to con-
sider the long terms needs and
goals of our communities.

Fold the foil over the top
and gather the two ends; but
leave two sides open so the
grill gasses can pass through.
The liquid in the bottom of
the pan will boil and the
"marinade steam" will con-
dense inside the top of the.
foil and drip back over the
bird, self-basting it.

Add wet hickory or sage
chips to the fire. Use either a
flat metal can that tuna
comes in and set it on the
lava rocks under the grill; or
use commercially available
iron containers which are set
on the grid next to the lava
rocks. Big chunks of hickory
work best.

Start the grill and when it
heats up, place the pan on
one side of the grill. Cook
over a hot fire. For two
burner grills, place the pan..
on one side and turn the
pan end for end after 25
minutes. Turn the burner
under the bird to low after 1
hour. Make sure that the
sides of the foil are open.

Allow the chicken to cook
two to two and a half hours,
depending on the size of. the'
bird. Make sure at least a
quarter inch of liquid is in
the bottom of the foil inside
the pan. Add water if it gets
dry. When the chicken is
done (test with a thermome-
ter or insert a knife which
should slide in almost by
itself) take the bird off the.
fire. Cover and let sit for 15
minutes.

Use a very sharp knife to'
carve the bird into large,
thin slices. Spoon the juice
from the bottom of the pan'
and pour over each slice on
the platter. The juice may
also be used for flavoring for
gravy as rice and gravy are:
almost a must with this
meal. Serve immediately. '

To make turkey: soak it
in brine made with 4 lb. of
rock salt, water, and 1 bottle
of honey. Soak for three
hours; remove and rinse.
Apply spices, etc. as above.

Golf's big guns mostly hied
blanks in the final round of The
Players Championship Sunday,
but unheralded Stephen Ames
breezed through the Stadium
Course firing a 5-under par 67
to secure the crystal trophy.

native, who now lives in
Canada, turned his one-stroke

Ames rebounded nicely with
birdies on two of the next three
holes and again built his lead to
five shots.
"Just a typical practice round
right here," Ames joked of
shooting a final round 67. "This
is big. This is characterized as
the fifth major. I beat the top
players in the world."
Runner-up Retief Goosen,
playing three groups ahead of
the leader, was pleased with

birdies at 16 and IS but said he
knew it was too little too late.
"[Ames]] played unbelievably
It w'as pretty close at one stage
but lie played awesome."
Goosen said. "He ran away with
it at the end."
The newly-crownted Players
champion briefly stunned
reporters by indicating he
might skip next month's
Masters to honor a vacation
commitment with his family. "I
have no plans to play at
Augusta," said Ames, whose
wife Jodi was
diagnosed
with cancer in
May of 2005
g. This is and had half a

to spend some

- ;hCn.i~ior, priorities have
always been

But by Monday Ames
reversed field and told a
Toronto radio station he will
indeed play in the Masters.
"It was something I had to
talk to my family about before I
made that decision," hlie said.
While the Tournament
Players Club flummoxed many\
of golf's veterans throughout
the weekend, at least one rookie
rose to the occasion. Flashy for-
mer University of Florida star
Camilo Villegas shot a final
round 71 to land in a tie for
third with Pat Perez, lim Furyk,
and Henrik Stenson. \illegas,
who began the week listed as
first alternate for the Players,
gained entry into the tourna-
ment when former Gator Chris
DeN Marco withdrew because of a
rib injury suffered while skiing.
The third place showing was
somewhat bittersweet for the
Columbian, however, because it
moved him up to No. 11 on the
money list, one slot shy of earn-
ing a spot in the Masters.
"I gave it my best and it looks
like it's not going to happen,"
said Villegas, masking his disap-
pointment. "Hopetully, there
will be plenty of Masters for me
in the future."

For a while it seemed the Waterford
Crystal might stay in Ponte Vedra Beach.
Area residents Vijay Singh, Jim Furyk
and 2005 champion Fred Funk were all in
the hunt as play began Sunday in the final
round of The Players Championship.
Singh, at 8-under, was just one shot
behind third round leader Stephen Ames.


Furyk, who led The Players after the first
and second rounds, had a bogey-plagued
75 on Saturday but was still just four
strokes off the lead. And Funk, at 3-under,
was still lurking on the leaderboard as play
began Sunday.
A disastrous front nine knocked Singh
from contention quickly. Three bogeys on
his fist five holes and double bogey on the
9th dropped the Fijian to 1-under. A pair
of birdies on the back nine was offset by
two bogeys and Singh finished 5-over for


Ponte Vedra Beach's Jim Furyk chips
toward the 18th green during the
opening round of The Players
Championship last Thursday. Furyk led
the event for the first two rounds but
finished in a four-way tie for third.

the day.
Furvk, meanwhile, rebounded to shoot
an even par 72 in the final round to finish
in a four-way tie for third. The 35-year-old
was pleased with his round and happy
things didn't spiral completely out of con-
trol Saturday, as they did in the second
round for playing partner Davis Love Ill.
Love and Furyk both had terrific open-
ing rounds Thursday amidst dreary, wet
conditions. Playing in the same group,
each carded a "-under 65 to share the lead.
On Friday, however, while Furyk main-
tained his steady pace and even stretched
his lead by a stroke to 8-under, Love was a
truly dreadful 17 shots worse than the pre-
-ious day. Love's round of 83 dropped him
99 places in the standings and the Georgia
native missed the cut.
A similar fate befell 2004 Players cham-
pion Adam Scott. The 25-year-old
Australian, who had climbed to within
one stroke of the lead at 7-under on Friday,
shot a woeful 82 in the third round to
plummet down the leaderboard..
On Saturday, it was Furvk who found
trouble all over the Stadium Course but
managed to avoid a Love-like implosion
with some nifty par saves and a stellar
short game.
"This golf course can be severe," the
Ponte Vedra resident said. "The greens
were playing as difficult as I've ever seen
them and the weather wasn't even that
bad. I think there were times in my round
Saturday that I could really have put up a
big number, but I didn't and managed to
keep it together even though I wasn't play-
ing well."
Like many before him Sunday, Funk
found the Stadium Course exceptionally
difficult to navigate. Five bogeys led to a 2-
over par 74 and a tie for 16th place. Still,
given the distractions, commitments and
media attention that goes with being the
defending Players champion, Funk's four
days weren't all that bad.
After handing the crystal trophy to this
year's champion Stephen Ames during a
greenside ceremony at the 18th, Funk said
the course took its toll on most of the
players.
"It just shows how tough it can be out
here. If you're even a little bit off, it's real-
ly difficult to score," he said. "The golf
course 'played extremely hard over the
weekend."

Hours before Ames claimed

early. It wasn't considered a :
big story that defending ,,
champion and Ponte Vedra
favorite son Fred Funk slipped
in his quest to repeat all the
way to a tie for seventh place
with two self-destructing.
.rounds of 74. That was no big
news. The curse of the TPC
Stadium Course had just
claimed another defending
champion.
SNor was thefailed effort of
another local fase, V'ijay


Singh, who killed his chances
Sunday with a 77 or yet
another local, Jim Furyk, who
might have had a chance to
derail Ames but for a jolting
75 on Saturday, considered
big news.
No, until Ames made his
amazing Sunday finish, the
big stories were Love's abrupt
departure from the scene and
the failed try by Tiger Woods,
who dropped down to a tie
for 22nd place. The strain of
his trip and an ill father
could account for Woods'
mental break, but other
favorites just had a time deal-
ing with the tough Stadium
Course even on a brilliant
day. .
"We can't complain about
the weather today," Goin said
Sunday. "This is' the kind of
day and conditions we hope
for when we go to May next
year. An. after last Thursday's
messy rain and last year's
weather,- today is just all we
could hope for."
'Ames deserved his victory.


In utter frustration he had
chased winner Craig Perks all
the way to the end four years
ago only to come up empty.
Since then. the Trinidad
native had found frustration
in almost every meet, having
only a seventh-place finish in
the Honda to show for his
year's work.
This time Ames and his "lit-
tle' brother, 33-year-old
,Robert, who does his caddy-
ing and usually second-guess-
ing, pushed the right buttons
and left the field with egg on
their foes' red faces. Stephen
rightfully gave his younger
(by eight years) sibling a bear
hug, not to mention a
healthy check, for his four
days work.
The old saying, "Whom the
gods favor they first seem to
'destroy," or words to that
effect, never fit any Players
champion as much as they
did the Ames brothers on
Sunday the last time this
tournament will be contested
in March. A fitting finish.

Southern hospitality was the
