Paid circulation leader Winner of 21 state and national awards for journalism excellence this year THF BAKER COUNTY PRESS 13840 YONGE -'SRARY FLA. HISTORY PO BOX; 117007 UNIV. FLA. GAiNESVSILLE, FL 32611 County's impact fee plan isn't ours: Glen Town wants expert to study options BY MICHAEL RINKER Press Staff The mayor of Glen St. Mary is refusing to sign an interlocal agreement that would allow the county to collect impact fees for the town. The Baker County Commission approved the agreement at its meeting last week, but Mayor Juanice Padgett said Glen officials are poised to study and perhaps enact an impact fee of their own. Until then, they're reluctant to commit to any related agreements. The county has already passed an ordinance setting its impact fee -and Glen's at $1500. "They didn't ask me about it," "the mayor said. "They're not speaking for Glen vet." Some toin officials are skepti- cal about whether Glen should even have an impact fee. Ms. Padgett said she'll ask the town's attorney, Phyllis Rosier, to check on the implications of the county's ordinance. Alex Robinson. chairman of the county commission, said it's likely Ms. Rosier and county attorney Terry Brown will have to work out the details. Mr. Brown said, "They can't change our la%, biqt if the\ don't want us to collect the fee, it would be difficult to make them." Mayor Padgett said she will ask the town's engineer Tim Norman if his company, Mittauer & Asso- ciates, can do an impact fee study. If not, town officials will hire somebody to do it "in the near fu- ture." A study is required to determine whether a fee is justified and what amount can be assessed. Consultant Frank Darabi, who did an impact fee study, said his research show ed that Glen, the city of Macclenny, and the county could each charge $2777. Mayor Padgett. however, said Mr. Darabi did not present any recommendation to town officials. She said she tried to hire his firm to do a" study, but gave up when Mr. Darabi would not tell her how much it wouldicost. County commissioners went lower than his recommendation, while Macclenn. officials have 'tentatively approved a slightly higher fee of $3000. The school board's consultant said the district could justify a fee of up to $5068, but the preliminary ordinance calls for $1500 the first year and $1500 the second. Eacl year after that, it will increase 20 percent, although it cannot exceed the $5068 unless a future study shows that a higher amount is jus- tified. While the cit 's impact fee will be apportioned .among transporta- tion, law enforcement, emergency services, fire services and recre- ation, the county's $1500 fee is all' for transportation, and the school board's would be for education, such as new schools and buses. . Impact fees, levied on new con- struction, are intended to help pay for the additional roads, schools, police and fire services needed to accommodate, growth. The fee will be assessed when the building permit is pulled, or in the case of mobile homes, the move-on permit.

BY MICHAEL RINKER Press Staff A coalition of downtown Mac- clenny.business owners is moving ahead with plans to address parking problems, as well as the safety and aesthetics of buildings in the city's core area. When those plaji, are complete, including cost estimate;, Macclen- ny 'viticials would Iha't to agree to fund fr h impr'i:men,. . At a meeting Monday with city manager Gerald Dopso', the group briefly discussed the possibility of a half-cent sales. tax to raise money, There was no (ppor'iii',ii to the idea, although Mr. Dopson noted that iniplLemciiing the tax would re- ,quire a voters' referendum. Several of the business owners are in the process or have complet- ed refurbishing their buildings, which they contend is their finan- cial commitment to improving the area. The group agreed to submit a icuslution to the city conmmissiun outlining its plans. It expe-crts to have it done in time for the board's next ineeting. "It puts us on record during the city to address these concerns," s;id Press publisher Jim Mc(t-lulcy, who is acting as chairman of the group. About a dozen people attended Monday's meeting, including Mr. Dopson and Ginger Barber, execu- ti\e director of the Chamber of Commerce. Mr. NlcGauley. Pete Osgard, owner of Calendar's Deli, and car dealer Danny Lamb began informal discussions \ ith Mr. Dopson earlier this year, which led to an October meeting and Mionda-y's. The area of concern is between Sixth Street and Fourth Street. from US 90 south to the railroad tracks. The group hopes to ha'e a de- tailed plan for improvements by the beginning of 2006 or sooner. It will meet December 5 with Marvin Hill, a planning consultant, to begin designing 'the downtown. The meeting and all others on the issue are open to the public. On everyone's wNish list is pav- ing, lighting and landscaping of parking areas on both sides of the railroad tracks Contributing to the problem are employees who park in the streets, and leave their cars there for the en- tire day. forcing customers to drive farther away to find parking. There have been discussions with city of- ficials on enforcing parking limits in the area. . Two other parking options are on the table using property recently purchased by the city behind the Council on Aging building, and us- ing the parking lot adjacent to the tax. collector/property appraiser's offices, In addition to parking issues, the business group is targeting property owners who let their buildings fall into disrepair. They want buildings not only brought up to code, but taken care (Page two please) Manager cell phone running ten times average BY MICHAEL RINKER Press Staff County Manager Jason Griffis rang up $695 in charges on his county-issued cell phone in Octo- ber, prompting a public, yet an- onymous rebuke by County,Com- missioner Alex Robinson. Although the commissioner didn't specifically name Mr. Griffis when he bemoaned high phone bills at last week's commission meeting, it's apparent who he was referring to. He declined Tuesday morning to confirm it was Mr. .Griffis. According to the county's check register, two payments $418.31 and $276.51 were made to Nextel Communications for Mr. Griffis on November 1. That total is two-and-a-half times the combined totals of the four other government officials whose Nextel bills are included in the register. The others were Projects Man- ager Bob Hancock. whose total was $76.48; Fire Chief Richard Dolan, $76.50; Nick Giles of infor- mation services, $58.18; and Rick Clark, of emergency services, .$58.08. SCommissioner Robinson said: the basic monthly rate should range from $49 to $69 depending on whether it's a regular cell phone or one that can be used as a walkie- talkie. According to county records, Mr. Griffis' phone bill fell within that range in each of the past 11 months. "I've been spending a lot of time in the field the last couple of months," Mr. Griffis said Tuesday evening. The result is, the calls he usually gets in his office, he's been taking on-his cell phone. "M) job is 24/7," he added. He said he's been working with county departments to standardize personnel policies. "After the last budget workshop, the commissioners said we needed a structure... job descriptions, pay scales, scheduled evaluations, merit pay," he said. "They told me to spend a lot of time with the depart- ments to get an idea of where we're at." SMr. Griffis also said he inherited an undesirable cell phone plan from his predecessor Josie Davis, and that he has changed plans. He said he was disappointed that Commissioner Robinson didn't ap- proach him to talk about the issue. At the commissioner's urging, a memo was sent November 22 to all department heads, asking them to keep a close eye on phone bills. The memo, written by Mr. Griff- is, said that if a phone bill exceeds the number of minutes, the employ- ee must pay the difference. If it happens a second time, cell phone privileges will be revoked. Commissioner Robinson said it's important to him that taxpayer money is not'wasted by county em- ployees. "If they get mad at me, well, I guess that means they'll think about me next time," said Robin- son, who was elected chainTm.n of the Board of County Commission- ers at last week's meeting. Fred Raulerson was chosen vice-chair- man. In other business at the meeting, the commission granted a two- month extension to Leonard Lewis, who wants to purchase the county- owned Head Start building in Sanderson.

"City leaders allowed blighted areas to slowly evolve," said Mr. Lamb, who said there's "not enough backbone for an) thing progres- i to happen." He cited the building that hous- es the Baker County Standard as one of the blights, noting that it's the first thing people see of the downtown when they comein on CR 228/Fifth Street. He also said it's a fire hazard that poses a potential threat to sur- rounding businesses. Mr. Osgard said, "The owners Fund is set up for ailing liver patient Emery O. (Otis) McDaniel of Macclenny is awaiting word from the Mayo Clinic on whether he is a candidate for a liver trans- plant, and a find has been set up at Vystar to help with expenses since he has no in- surance. Mr. McDaniel, who for most of his 54 years has been a meat cutter, learned in mid-November that he has an inoperable tumor on his liver and it will have to be replaced for him to survive long-term. His doctors at St. Vincent's Medical Center have referred his case to the renowned Mayo transplant unit, which is now reviewing the case.

Mr. Dopson said he doesn't ex- pect the business owners to en- force city statutes, but that they can "put' additional pressure on those not complying." Mr. Lamb said, "I'm doing my part, I'd like to see the city catch up to what I'm doing."

Your astute political pundit and investigative journalist has been combing the airwaves in search of all those hot button issues our diligent politicians are trying to solve. My finger is on the pulse of American politics, gamely search- ing for a pulse or some sign of life to little avail. Here are some of the things I have discovered. The president spoke to the na- tion the other night about immigra- tion. He was worried there were so many illegal immigrants pouring across the US border that they would take so many jobs from Americans that we would run out of jobs to outsource to India. No. That wasn't it. He worried there would be so many immi- grants pouring across the border that they would take all those high-. paying ditch digging, landscaping and sewer cleaning jobs Americans currently hold. No. That wasn't it, either. Okay. I remember now. It was something called the Guest Worker Program. Basically, w hat the guest worker program means is that we would "invite" workers from Mexico and other countries ,o come across our borders for six years and work at jobs no American wants to do. I'm not talking about being the head of FEMA, although that too is a job nobody wants. I'm talking about those high-paying ditch dig- ging, landscaping, and sewer clean- ing jobs I mentioned earlier. At the end of their six years rin America, these guest workers would no longer be guest workers. They would be unwanted guests who had to go home. In short, they would be illegal immigrants. That's gonna work, fight? Right. At the end of their six years of watching cable TV and eating Big Macs, these immigrants will happily pack up and trudge back across. the border to the lives they led beforethey came to Am- erica.. Of course they will. Wouldn't you? In one fell swoop we have solved the problem of illegal immi- gration by renaming it. There are no longer.any illegal immigrants there are guest workers. The fact That they will all turn into illegal immigrants six years down the road doesn't matter because there will, be another administration inthe White House by then and it will be' their problem. Hey! I like this. We could solve a lot of other problemS by renam- ing them. Bird flu is a problem that scares. many people and for good reason. If this awful disease spreads to,peo- ple, it could kill more humans than the Black Plague in the Middle Ages. The government is callinigit a possible global pandemic. I don't like that name. It's ioo scary. It calls to mind people push- ing around carts loaded with dead bodies and yelling, "Bring out your dead." Let's apply the guest worker strategy to bird flu. Hmmm. There has to be some; way to make this, more palatable. Let's see. We need a familiar figure that doesn't fill us with loathing or terror. I've got it! Big Bird Flu. We can show scenes from Sesame Street where Big Bird comes down with a bad case of the sniffles and tells everyone to wash their hands and cover their mouths when they sneeze. Bert and Ernie will be lining up 'for flu shots and Elmo will lecture Oscar the Grouch about how bad it is for him to hoard Tami-flu when the rest of Sesame Street needs it. .It will work. Who would be scared of those cuddly Sesame Street characters? If it works for illegal immigra- tion and the global pandemic of bird flu, it's bound to work for the war'in Iraq. I don't see why not. The war in Iraq is a continuing problem with those pesky insur- gents killing US troops and Iraqis .day and night. The president's ap- proval rating has plummeted to around 40% so with the 2006 Con- gressional elections coming up it is very important that we find a way to make the war in Iraq seem less frightening. Iraq...Iraq. If Sesame Street worked for the bird flu ... Wait! I've got it. Arabian Nights! We'll use a Disney theme. From now on, whenever the president or any of his advisors discuss the war in ... oops, I mean Arabian Nights, we'll have songs from Aladdin playing in the background. We'll characterize the president as Aladdin and the first lady as Jas- mine and Donald Rumsfeld will start dressing all in blue like that roly-poly genie played by Robin Williams. The president,can assure the Iraq people that "...You ain't never had a friend like me." But what about the bad guys? How do we characterize those evil insurgents and their insidious lead- ers? Osama bin Laden bears a strik- ing resemblance to the evil Jaffar, and Saddam looks a lot like his an- noying parrot lago. It's a stretch, but it's certainly worth a try. Noth,- ing else seems to be working and everybody loves Disney. A Disney war would be much less frighten- ing than the real thing. Your opinion counts... Send us a letter -and sign it Dear Editor: There is a re-zoning applica- tion currently before the Board of County Commissioners that should concern all Baker County residents. For some reason, this re-zon- ing proposal never seems to jump out and say what it.actually is. Let's call it the Greystone PUD (Planned Unit Development). Baker County residents should be aware that this development will be located directly across from Baker County High School. As many as 240 houses will be built along Madison St. and Westside Loop. Four houses will be on one acre of land, with five-foot side yards, 25-foot front and 20-foot back yards. The builder will most likely need to clear-cut the 60 acres of trees on the property now in order to build houses that close to each other. Gone are the visons of stately oaks or dignified homes sur- rounded by schools. Gone is the opportunity to con- struct additional school buildings in the same location.. Gone will be the Baker County we know today. Forever are the houses built closely together. Forever is the traffic this will add to the area. If you do not want this type of development at this location, there are several things you can do: v" Mark your calendars for De- cember 6 and appear at the com- mission meeting at 6:00 pm. It's in the commissioner's room at the Baker County Administration Building behind the county court- house. V Speak out against this devel- opment at that meeting. / Call your county commis- sioner and let him or her know you oppose the Greystone PUD. Don't think your voice doesn't count. The simplest thing you can do is go to the meeting and sup- port those who are speaking against it. Once this type of development is introduced to this area, others like it will be allowed. If the sur- rounding land use is already there, it won't be difficult to add more. It's no longer a matter of if, but when. Who's going to stand up for your interests when some big developer wants to put one in your back yard? You are! Start with this.one. JOAN TRAWICK Macclenny Lantana: it tuns out to be a good omen As a small child growing up in South Carolina, the first flower I remember noticing was Lantana. I was five years old and in the habit, of knocking on the back door of a neighbor's hduse, hoping for. an invitation to come in and sit at. the table for some cookies and a glass of milk, Lantana bushes grew on either side of the back steps and on the occasions when no one answered my knock at the door, I would lingei in the yard, studying the tiny blossoms on the bushes. So many colors on one flower! It was beauti- ful. We moved away when I was six and I didn't see Lantana again for decades. The image of the flower's multi-colored blossom faded from my memory. But not completely. Several years ago, I was in the Florida Keys for the Christmas Holiday and to my great surprise and joy, there they were again - Lantana bushes growing around. the door of my vacation cabin. I placed vases of the flowers around the cabin and patio area. I plucked blossoms and stuck them in my hair when Iwent shop-` ping or to a restaurant. It was my way of saying "I love Florida." And it was at that time I begart to realize how much I wanted to live here. I returned from vacation to the small town that is my home. All through the cold -winter the images of Florida stayed with me. "Why Florida?" the people in my town asked me repeatedly when they got the news of my new job with The Baker County Press. I1 couldn't give a specific answer,, be- cause there wasn't justpne. Maybe it was the warm wel-. come I received from the vendor at: the Indian River Fruit Stand on the 1-295 by-pass as I was approaching Jacksonville on my first visit to THE BACK PORCH Macclenny. Maybe it was the fact that Fifth Street xw here the newspa- per office is located reminds me so much of Lake City, South Carolina, the small rural community \ here my mother gre\\ up and \\here the train also zooms through the mid- dle of town. Maybe it's the wonderful memo- ries of visiting St. Augusine with my family when I was young. That's a place I'm looking forward to seeing again soon. SOr maybe it's the fact that when I pulled up in front of an apartment someone suggested I consider rent-. ing, the first thing I saw was a Lan- tana bush in full bloom growing in the front yard. I took that as a very good omen and rented the wonderful, little apartment immediately. It was as if there: was a sign out front that said. "Welcome To Macclenny." That same afternoon, I paid a :1.visit to Mulch and- More on High-, way 121 S. Ow ner Clyde Andrew% s, Jr. and his wife \\ere gracious and accommodating. When I told them I wanted a plant for the yard or pool deck, they directed me to - well, you guessed it a gorgeous Lantana bush. I had to laugh. I'm looking forward to moving here next week and beginning to learn more about the town and its citizens. I've already had the privi- lege of attending and photograph- ing the Festival of Trees. The cake auction at the festival's gala dinner was a hoot. There were fellas will- ing to get up on stage, hold up the cakes and dance a little to encour- age the bidding. There was a lot of laughing.and clapping. And the cakes, all baked by local ladies, ri- valed anything I've seen in South- ern Living magazine. I think I've landed in a very good place.

Larry (Buck) Hutchins also aimed the pistol at Homar Black- burn, 21, twice as the victim exited the residence with a baby that had been lying on the floor beside a: couch. The 11-month-old baby, accord- ing to deputy Sgt. Thomas Dyal, is the child of Mr. Blackburn and its mother was not involved in the incident. The report also notes that Mr. Hutchins several times stepped on the baby while striking Mr. Black- burn, who was lying on a couch watching television with several others at the residence. "The best we can tell, he (Mr. Hutchins) just didn't like the other man and didn't want him there," said Sgt. Dyal. The incident occurred just after noon on November 27 and late that evening the sheriff's depart- ment Special Response Unit went to Mr. Hutchins' residence off- Gilford Davis Road nearby with a search warrant and found a hand- gun. Several witnesses identified it as the weapon used in the beating. The accused denied owning a gun and both he and wife Phyllis told police it belongs to her. The pistol was confiscated as evidence. According to statements made .to police, Mr. Blackburn went to the residence of Tammy Waters late that morning to watch movies. Ms. Waters is the daughter of Mr. Hutchins, who owvns the residence.
