Attendance:
Council Auditor Kyle Billy to discuss
Report:
#778A – Jacksonville Aviation Authority
(JAA) Payroll Audit Follow-up
Mr. Billy reported that 9 of the 10 identified issues from
the original audit (3 internal control weaknesses, 5 findings, 2 opportunities
for improvement) had been cleared and one internal control weakness remained. The
authority still needs to enact a standard operating procedure for the periodic review
of computer access rights. The authority responded to the follow-up that it has
since enacted such a policy and will review access rights twice a year. The JAA
had changed its payroll system since the time the original audit was done so
the follow-up checked on the operation of the new system.
Chairman Anderson announced that the Police and Fire Pension
Fund annual actuarial report will be presented by PFPF Executive Director Tim
Johnson at the next Finance meeting. The committee will also hear from the Kids
Hope Alliance on Ordinance 2019-23 and on the agency’s mini-grant program at
the next meeting.

Summary TEU: Amend/Approve Phillip Peterson of the Council Auditor’s Office reviewed
the changes from the existing to the proposed contribution agreement and a
list of advantages and disadvantages to the City and JEA relating to the new
agreement. Mr. Peterson noted a listing of 8 technical/scrivener amendments
on page 12 of the agenda. In response to a question from Council Member
Gulliford about prioritization of septic tank phase-out areas, Council Member
Boyer described the evaluation and prioritization matrix adopted by the
Council several years ago. In response to a question from Council Member
Boyer about the potential for utilizing new or innovative technologies for
septic tank phase-outs, JEA CEO Aaron Zahn said that decentralization of
treatment facilities is a growing trend in the utility industry because of
the power of computing and control systems that make small package plants
more feasible than they once were. JEA will commission a study of the latest
innovative technologies that could help the JEA and the City to attack a more
than $2 billion, 50-year-old problem with septic tanks. The study will start
with no preconceptions and will explore all possible alternatives to solve a
huge problem. Council Member Boyer said that the new governor and the Duval
Legislative Delegation have talked about addressing the problem of septic
tanks, so the time is right for JEA and the City to seek financial assistance
to attack this problem. In response to a question from Ms. Boyer, Jody Brooks, the
JEA’s attorney, said that a draft ordinance was begun several years ago that
would amend the Ordinance Code to create a mechanism for interested
neighborhoods to agree to a special assessment mechanism to fund septic tank
phase-outs. In response to a question from Council Member Gaffney about
future JEA contributions to septic tank phase-outs above the $30 million
already allocated, Mr. Zahn said that the JEA recognizes the City’s septic
tank, water quality and electric utility undergrounding issues and is
considering what it can do in those areas within the limitations of its
resources. In response to a question from Council Member Gulliford, Mr. Zahn
said that the City is paying the connection costs for properties that phase
out septic tanks. Mr. Gulliford felt it would be worth investigating a
mechanism for the City to recoup its investment when the property is sold
since the property owner is reaping a benefit from increased property value
due to the City’s investment. Council Member Boyer cautioned that the
City-financed sewer tap-in methodology was chosen because placing liens on
properties to recoup the investment in the future tends to discourage
citizens from wanting to participate in the process and is therefore
counterproductive. Mr. Zahn invited the City Council to the JEA Board’s February
meeting at which a briefing on water supply and wastewater disposal issues
will be given. AMEND/APPROVE

his excellent service to the Opioid Epidemic Task Force. Council Member Boyer
asked for an explanation from the Council Auditor’s Office about the concern
noted on the agenda regarding appropriation of funds not yet received. Kim
Taylor said that her office always notates on agendas when a bill proposes to
appropriate funds that have not yet been received from a private entity;
grants from the federal and state government are less problematic because the
funding is more assured. Chief Castleman reported that the department has
received a notice of award from the grantor and will receive the funding as a
reimbursement as long as the equipment is purchased by June 1st. AMEND/APPROVE

The committee’s next meeting will be held on Wednesday, February
20th due to the Presidents Day holiday
Peggy Sidman said the Chair of the LUZ Committee has asked
for legislation to move the committee’s meeting of March 19 to the following
day to avoid conflicts with Election Day activities. She asked if the Finance
Committee wanted to change its March 19th meeting date or not; the
committee decided to move the meeting to the following day as well and
authorized Ms. Sidman to include the date change for Finance in the bill being
prepared for the LUZ Committee.

Other Notable
Information
The City has not spent any of the $15,000,000 JEA
contributed pursuant to the 2016 agreement, however,
engineering for two neighborhoods is underway. Since approval of the framework
for the septic tank phase out program (Bill 2016-490-E) in August of 2016, two
neighborhoods, Biltmore and Beverly Hills, have reached the 70% threshold
required to move the projects forward. The current schedule reflects
engineering for Biltmore will conclude in early 2019 with construction bids due
in late April 2019 and construction commencing June 2019. Engineering for
Beverly Hills began in November 2018.
