CDT, Thursday, October 16, 1969, and the City Hall Council Chamber as the place. This special meeting was called to discuss a resolution authorizing execution of license agreement a with A. G. Anderson pertaining to the location of a traffic signal controller." Manager explained that the request had come through attorney Fred Estergren on behalf of A. G. Anderson who owned the property on which the control box was located. He said the request was for the City to accept a permit from A. G. Anderson to operate the controller on his property at the intersection of Hollywood and Beal. The survey prepared I by the purchaser Gulf Oil had shown the controller to be located on Anderson' s property. Manager said the urgency was that Anderson had an option to sell the property and the pros- pective buyer didn' t want it with any encroach- ment. City Attorney said he had mentioned two alternatives; one you could ask the State to relocate assuming that there is an encroach- 20G ment and other would be for City to go on with agreement and if ever has to be moved then it must come back into the ROW: and could ask the SRD to move it. Mr. Palmer commented that State moved any pole that had to be moved. Attorney said he thought they would assume the responsi- bility. City Manager asked if City assumed title when assumed maintenance. Attorney said no. Mr. Long asked if it was definite that there was an encroachment. It was suggested that the permit might be changed to read that permit was being granted if in fact that the traffic controller has been found to be on Anderson' s property by surveyor. Mr. Long moved that Council approve the permit. City Attorney read resolution 69- 38. 69- 38 - A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER ON BEHALF OF THE CITY OF FORT WALTON BEACH TO EXECUTE A LICENSE AGREEMENT WITH A. G. ANDERSON AND WIFE PERTAINING TO THE LOCATION OF A TRAFFIC SIGNAL CONTROLLER THAT IS INSTALLED ON THEIR PROPERTY, PROVIDING THE EFFECTIVE DATE HEREOF. He suggested qualifying the agreement adding words " this agreement on the fact if the controller is located on Anderson' s property." Mr. Long moved that the resolution be adopted with the suggested amendment to the agreement - provided however, that this acceptance is predicated on the signal controller in actuality being located on the property of the licensor." Motion seconded by Mr. Guidry and carried unanimously. Adjournment Meeting adjourned at 5: 05 p. m.
