At one time the lagoons were open to the ocean and many species spent part of their life in the lagoons. It is the hope that this would occur again. Mr. Grant stated there would be a localized circle of sand movement, but nothing significant. Mr. Uilson added the reefs would be at a depth of 35 to 50 feet, and there would be no changes in the ocean area except for the enhancement of the fish. Ken Nilson, State Marine Biologist, continued the presenta$ion, stating the aerial photographs would be put on charts and this would indicate where existing reefs are and would help find areas suitable for the artifical reef according to the depth of the water.

Dan Hammer, 4015 Isle Drive, spoke in opposition to the proposed guidelines, stating they did not include any reference to business dealings or political contributions.

Council Member Pettine objected to the guidelines stating conflict of interest is governed by State law and none of these conditions touch on the subject of money, He stated the City should address the issue of money--have monies been received, have they worked or been employed by them or had a business relationship. Mayor Lewis stated the public has a right to be aware of the relationship existing between any member of a City body and anyone appearing before that body. He felt there should be guidelines in writing for the benefit of any person serving in a City capacity. Council Member Mamaux reiterated these were items of disclosure and did not necessarily involve conflict of interest * Council Member Pettine suggested a fifth condition to require full disclosure of monies received and prior business relationships on all items before the Commissions and Council.
