SPECIAL MEETING
A special joint meeting of the City Council and the Electrical
Board of Examiners was held in the City Administration Building on
Tuesday, August 27, 1963.
The meeting was called to order at 7:30 P. M.by Council Chairman
Clarence Bishop. All Council members were present with the exception
of Councilman York. City Attorney Morse, Mayor Bon Jorn and City
Clerk Albert Johnson were also present, as well as Electrical Board
members Forrest Colegrove, Seldon Hanks and Mervin Lee. A representa-
tive of the local press was present.
Chairman Bishop stated that the joint meeting had been called for
the purpose of considering the request made by James H. Flournoy that
his company be issued a temporary permit for the electrical wiring
of the Pub1ix Super Market, now under construction in this city.
City Attorney Morse reported that Mr. Axel Ornberg, of Curry
Electric COlnpany of Orlando, Mr. James Albert, a member of the Orlando
Electrical Board and Mr. Howard L. Palmer, a member of the Winter Park
Electrical Board had reviewed the questions contained in the examination
which was given to James H. Flournoy and R. C. Wooten, Jr and that
they were unanimuus in their opinion that the questions were reason-
able; that the examination was not unduly difficult and that any
Master Electrician should be able to pass the examination without
difficulty.
Foll~wing a discussion of the matter, motion was made by Counciiliman
Hutchingson, seconded by Councilman Turvi1le, and unanimously carried
that Flournoy Electric Company be advised that the City Council has
made a thorough investigation of the questions contained in the Master
Electrical Examination given to James H. Flournoy and R. C. Wooten, Jr.
and that they find the test, or examination, to be fair and reasonable
and that, therefore, the request for a temporary permit for the elec-
trical wiring of the Pub1ix Market now under construction in Clermont,
is denied.
City Attorney Morse advised the Council that application made by
Joe Howell for permission to hold religious meetings for a period of two
weeks in a tent to be located at the intersection of Highways 50
and 27 should not be granted, as both the Fire District code and
the Sanitation Code would be violated. Clerk Johnson was requested to
so advise Mi'. Howell.
Meeting adjourned.
