Jean k. Taylor, City Clerk
TO: Members of the City Council of Cape Canaveral
FROM: R. A. Jamieson, Mayor
SUBJECT: Ordinance 3 -62
On 19 June 1962 in a letter addressed to you
and which was read publicly concerning the same ordi-
nance, I wrote, "Because of..the importance and the nec-
essity of this ordinance,I respectfully request the
council give additional consideration not only to the
occupational license tax ordinances of the surround-
ing citites of Brevard County, but also to the opin-
ions of the citizens of our community." Again on 5
July 1962 in another letter addressed to you and read
Publicly, I wrote, "I request that the council recon-
sider the occupational license ordinance and, after
careful study of like ordinances in the surrounding
area, write an ordinance covering. this need that will
prove to be equitable and fair to the existing as well
as prospective people residing or doing business with-
in our corporate. limits."
No one is more aware than I of our urgent
need for monies for our town which could be derived
from this ordinance. In spite of this need, I cannot
in good conscience, and as an elected official repre-
senting the people of this town, approve this ordinance
in its present status.
Firstly, I sincerely feel that too little time
has been devoted to its drafting. This becomes apparent
by examining like ordinances adopted by our neighboring towns.
Secondly, the inequities which existed in the
first ordinance which I vetoed are still present. It Is
intolerable, in my opinion, to give one group of our citi-
zens tax benefits not enjoyed by the remainder of our citi-
zens. I specifically refer to some crafts and professions
being charged a less amount because they are residents of
our town. If some are to be given benefits because they
are residents, then all trades, crafts, professions, etc.
should be given like benefits. This inequity could easily
be remedied by the insertion of a paragraph giving a flat
percentage reduced fees to residents.
Thirdly, a review of the minutes of the regular
council meeting held 31 July 1962 and of the special coun-
cil meeting held 2 August 1962 reveals that changes were
made to Ordinance 3- 62.after the first reading and that
the addition of another section was made to the ordinance
at the special meeting. The ordinance as it is now
written has not been read the required number of times.
In view of the above, I.have no recourse but
to veto this ordinance as presented.
Signed:
R.A. Jamieson 7 Aug 1962
