COMMISSIONER FLETCHER FURTHER EXPLAINED THAT NO ONE WOULD <br />ACTUALLY LOSE THEIR EXEMPTION. THE EXEMPTIONS WOULD JUST BE DIS- <br />REGARDED BY TAXING ON A PER PARCEL BASIS SO THAT EVERYONE WOULD SHARE <br />IN PAYING FOR THE LIGHTS. HE FELT THAT A DOLLAR A MONTH WOULD BE <br />A HIGH FIGURE PER PARCEL OWNER, AND AS THE TAX BASE INCREASES IT WOULD <br />BE REDUCED. COMMISSIONER FLETCHER NOTED THAT THERE ARE OTHER TAXING <br />DISTRICTS IN THE COUNTY, I.E., ROCKRIDGE AND LAURELWOOD STREET LIGHTING <br />DISTRICTS. <br />A LADY FROM 31ST AVENUE, GIFFORD, INFORMED THE BOARD THAT <br />SHE IS IN THE LIGHTING AREA SERVED BY THE CITY OF SERO BEACH AND <br />EVERYBODY IN HER PARTICULAR LOCATION SIGNED UP AND PAYS $5.00 A MONTH <br />FOR THEIR LIGHTS. SHE NOTED THAT SHE HAD A LIGHT PUT UP IN HER YARD <br />JUST RECENTLY AND PAYS FOR IT BY THE YEAR. <br />ATTORNEY JENNINGS EXPLAINED THAT THE COMMITTEE WHICH WAS <br />SET UP TO STUDY THIS HAVE PLANNED WHERE THE PROPOSED LIGHTS WILL BE <br />AND TRIED TO BALANCE THEM TO HAVE THE WHOLE STREET WELL LIGHTED; SO <br />THAT HOPEFULLY, ALL THOSE PEOPLE NOW PAYING FOR LIGHTS INDIVIDUALLY <br />WOULD NOT FIND IT NECESSARY TO PAY FOR INDIVIDUAL LIGHTS IN THE FUTURE. <br />COMMISSIONER BIRD POINTED OUT THAT IF AN INDIVIDUAL WISHED <br />A PARTICULAR LIGHT TO REMAIN THERE, THEY COULD CONTINUE PAYING FOR IT. <br />MR. HUNTER OF 38TH AVENUE STATED THAT HE HAS A LIGHT AND <br />HAS BEEN PAYING FO -R IT HIMSELF SINCE 1974 AND HE DID NOT WANT IT MOVED. <br />ATTORNEY JENNINGS NOTED THAT THEY DO HAVE A PLAN FOR 39TH <br />AVENUE AND FEEL THAT IT WILL BE LIGHTED RATHER WELL. <br />VICTOR HART WISHED IT EMPHASIZED TO THE PEOPLE PRESENT WHO <br />ALREADY HAVE THEIR OWN LIGHTS, THAT THIS DOES NOT EXEMPT THEM FROM <br />PAYING THE ADDITIONAL TAX. <br />ATTORNEY JENNINGS AGAIN EXPLAINED THAT THE INTENT OF THE <br />PROPOSED DISTRICT IS TO IMPOSE A TAX FOR STREET LIGHTS IN GIFFORD AND <br />TO HAVE EVERYONE PAY FOR THEM. THERE ARE LIGHTS NOW EXISTING THAT <br />INDIVIDUALS ARE PAYING FOR THEMSELVES. IN THE TAXING DISTRICT, IT <br />IS PROPOSED TO DO AWAY WITH ALL THOSE LIGHTS.
