NOTE:  The next regular meeting will be held Wednesday, August 17, 2016.

 

Council Auditor Kirk Sherman made brief reports on several audits released by his office since the last Finance Committee meeting. Audit #781 – Animal Care and Protective Services Division – identified several instances of carelessness and poor or non-existent adherence to City cash handling procedures in the deposit of cash and credit card payments received by ACPS, and a significant amount of revenue is currently unaccounted for. The employee primarily responsible for depositing the revenues resigned from employment during the course of the audit. Clearly tighter controls and adherence to the City’s cash handling policies are needed. Chief Administrative Officer Sam Mousa said that a nationally-recognized expert in animal control has been hired as interim division chief on a contract basis while a search for a permanent chief is ongoing. The City has found it very difficult to find an acceptable candidate for this position.

 

Audit #782 – Follow-up on previously issued reports: this report followed-up on the process of implementing recommendations made in 12 previously issued audits. In five instances the Auditor’s Office determined that all recommendations had been implemented and the audits were considered closed. Regarding the audits remaining open, the report recommended: that the Ordinance Code be updated to allow the Tax Collector to charge the returned-check fee currently authorized by state law; that the City re-draft and execute a franchise agreement with a natural gas supplier currently paying the franchise fee but for which ne executed agreement can be located; that the personnel operating the scale house at the Trail Ridge Landfill be urged to transfer all cash deposits to the Tax Collector’s Office on a daily basis as required in the cash management policy; that the Accounts Receivable Division improve its reporting of overdue bills to the collection agency and consider issuing an RFP for a new collection agency; and that the administration and Shands Jacksonville medical center continue efforts to find a way to document oversight of the county residency requirement and income limitations required by the indigent care funding contract without running afoul of the federal HIPA restrictions on patient medical information confidentiality.

 

Council Member Gulliford urged Mr. Mousa Sherman to develop a list of the biggest financial  issues facing the Administration and Finance Department City that need Council action and present it to the Finance Committee as a special meeting topic after the budget is completed. He suggested that the Council should play a bigger role in procurement, at least with regard to long-term contracts and very expensive purchases. He believes that is a typical role for city councils in other jurisdictions, and that Jacksonville is unique in not having any role for the council in the process.

Bill Summary            NCIS: Approve

 

Assistant Council Auditor Kyle Billy explained the proposed amendments on the Auditor’s marked agenda. Bill Prescott, Interim Executive Director of Friends of Hemming Park, distributed a list of functions on which future City funds will be expended, which excludes events, programming, and food and beverages. Council Member Gulliford recommended an amendment to prohibit expenditures on meals or entertainment for marketing purposes within that listed category. CAO Sam Mousa opposed any allocation of City funding for any work done to date on the development of a restaurant in the park. Council Member Crescimbeni asked for a detailed report on the $2,000 per month shown for office supplies and computer software. Members agreed to defer the bill today and hold a noticed meeting tomorrow to further discuss this appropriation and the underlying contract with FOHP. Council President Boyer urged a reduction of the appropriation from $150,000 to $75,000, with FOHP reimbursing Southwest Airlines in the amount of $75,000 for the grant FOHP received for capital purposes that was spent on operations. In response to a question from Council Member Schellenberg about FOHP’s absolute “drop dead” date to run out of money, Mr. Prescott said three weeks. Council Member Gulliford said that no progress is being made in curbing the objectionable behavior of some park users, and it may be necessary to shut the park down entirely for a time to break bad habits and re-set expectations of what sorts of behavior will and will not be tolerated in the park.

In response to a question from Council Member Brosche about whether any of the intended funding recipients currently have any compliance issues with the City, Dayatra Coles of the Housing and Community Development Division indicated that there are two outstanding issues. One agency owes the city a completed audit, the other has not fully completed some houses on land provided to it by the City. Council Member Gulliford felt there should be an ordinance (not just a policy) prohibiting any additional funding to agencies that are not in compliance on any City program or grant. Deputy General Counsel Peggy Sidman said that the assistance ban for non-compliance is not reciprocal for this program as it is for some other types of assistance.

 

Public comment: Therese Mixon of Fairways Oaks said that Habijax had built faulty homes in her neighborhood in 2005 and, following a series of complaints, has only repaired one of those homes. The homes are sinking and foundations cracking because they were built on a former landfill site. Habijax is uncommunicative with the homeowners. Council Member Gulliford said that some of the property owners have retained Jacksonville Area Legal Aid to push their case, and once lawyers get involved the parties all become reluctant to talk and be cooperative. He believes mediation would be better than hiring lawyers and filing suit. Cal Ridenour of Fairways Oaks said that homes are sinking and cracking and the residents are suffering from health issues. The repairs that have been made don’t last because the underlying cause is not being remedied. A permanent solution is needed, not patches. CAO Sam Mousa said that he and Mayor Curry have been to Fairways Oaks and seen the problems first-hand. They commit to giving the Florida Department of Environmental protection all of the available records and studies so that FDEP can determine once and for all if there is contamination present in the ground. They will also facilitate a meeting among Habijax, Jacksonville Area Legal Aid, area residents and the City’s General Counsel’s Office to explore a resolution to this issue. He said that no lawsuit has been filed yet by JALA on behalf of the Fairways Oaks residents, and he hopes that mediation can be tried again (previous mediations have been unsuccessful at reaching a resolution). He stated that both the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the Florida DEP have previously said they don’t see or know of any contamination at the site, but FDEP will look again at all the relevant evidence and render another finding. Mary O’Rourke, Executive Director of Habijax, said that the organization wants to solve the problems in a reasonable manner.
