Commissioner PUBLIC AUDTENCE: TNDZVI'DUAL SPEAKERS PRESENTATZONS W~rLL BE LIMZ'rED TO 3-M'rNUTE Meeting Minutes Regular City Commission Boynton Beach,. Florida 3une 4, 2002 Dom Desiderio, 2755 S. Federal Highwayf spoke of the Preliminary Fire Assessment Resolution scheduled for the City Commission meeting of .~uly 2, 2002 and the Public Hearing to adopt Annual Fire Assessment Resolution scheduled for September 12, 2002. He suggested that these items were both scheduled for holiday weeks and asked if they could be heard at another time to allow citizen participation. Mr. Desiderio noted that one requirement for a fire assessment is that it has to be a benefit to the properly being assessed. Tn 2000, there were only 50 rites, resulting in properLy loss of $272,922. He asked if $3.4M should be spent to protect propert~ worth $272,922. He believed that this did not represent a benefit to the property as required by law. He had no problem with the assessment of $3,090 on his business but did not understand how his paying the assessment would benefit his property. He asked that this qUestion be answered in writing. Mayor Broening noted that the meeting schedule was largely driven by the requirements of the State Statute process, but that Mr. Desiderio's concerns would be taken into consideration. Alice Otis, 203 S.W. 13th Street, inquired about the status of having individual water meters for multi-family dwellings. She recalled Mr. Sugerman's comment that when people know they are paying for water,, they tend to use considerably less of it. She also inquired why the City was not using the Woman's Club for its parties and other functions. She mentioned a large retirement party held at the Woman's Club a few years ago where the catered food was excellent and parking was not a problem. Brian Edwards~ 629 N.E. 9th Avenue, gave a status report on the PATCH (Planned Approach to Community Health) organization. Led by Ms. Angela Girtman since inception, PATCH has been able to accomplish a number of things for the community including: ,/ providing immunizations v' participating in a Child and Youth Health Fair v' sponsoring a United We Stand Hope and Healing event v' facilitating insurance for parents with Iow an moderate incomes v~ participating in providing mammograms Herb Suss, a citizen of Boynton Beach, commended the City Commission and the Mayor for the Citizens Academy hosted by the City. He enrolled in the program and hoped that it would be offered, even if the enrollment fell short of the City's expectations.' Mr. Suss asked for more feedback from the City in general and specifically about the status of Visions 20-20. He expressed hope that the City would give hurricane preparedness information to its citizens and suggested that televising the City Commission proceedings would be an excellent way to extend communication with the residents. III. OTHER: A. Informational Ttems by Members of the City Commission 2 Meeting Minutes Regular City Commission Boynton Beach~ Florida June ~ 2002 Commissioner Fisher mentioned a program where $100 rewards are given to those who report drunk drivers. He inquired whether the Boynton Beach Police were participants. Marshall Gage, Chief of Police, reported that this is a statewide initiative called Plob///ze sponsored by Mothers Against Drunk Drivers (MADD) in which all law enforcement agencies, including the Boynton Beach Police, actively participate. Upon observing a car that is swerving around the road, for example, the individual calls the local police or the Florida Highway Patrol at *347 and advises the dispatcher of the circumstances. The dispatcher notifies a patrol car in the vicinity. If the incident results in a DU! arrest, the dispatcher records the information and sends it to the Traffic Division, who forwards the form and a copy of the arrest report to MADD. MADD gives the caller a check for $100 with their thanks. Commissioner Fisher reminded everyone that the third annual school supply drive would begin soon. The amount of supplies collected each year has grown and last year, the elementary schools each got $300 to purchase supplies. Commissioner Fisher spoke about economic indicators, stating that while Motorola had moved out (while retaining some 200K square feet), at least two other businesses were moving in to Boynton Beach and that this was a measure of the rising economic health of the community. Commissioner McCray noted that his church, St. John Missionary Baptist Church, had a new minister, Reverend Lance Cheney, who will address the church at the 11:00 a.m. service on Sunday, June 9, and Commissioner McCray invited all interested parties to attend. IV. ADMINISTRATIVE: A. Accept resignation of Wilbur J. Lynch, Regular Member, Employees' Pension Board It was with great regret that Mayor Broening advised of the resignation of Wilbur Lynch, a long-time member of the Employees' Pension Board.

Declaring Mother's Day &, Father's Day as two-day events within the City of Boynton Beach Mayor Broening read the Proclamation declaring that Mother's Day and Father's Day would be celebrated as two-day events within the City of Boynton Beach. The 4 Meeting Minutes Regular City Commission Boynton Beachf. Florida 3une 4f 200? Proclamation stated, "The role of parent is a unique blessing and a profound responsibility, which forms the foundation of our country's families and communities." Mayor Broening presented the Proclamation to Commissioner Fisher, who conceived the idea. 2. Presentation by Ben Bryant, MAD DADS Mayor Broening introduced Ben Bryant, president of the local chapter of MAD DADS. Mr, Bryant stated that MAD DADS was an acronym for Men Against . Destruction~Defending Against Drugs and Social Disorder. They present themselves as positive role models and concerned parents who are a visible presence in their neighborhoods against violence and drugs. Mr, Bryant indicated that the MAD DADS organization was now formally established in the City of Boynton Beach. MAD DADS feel that the City's children need more activities because of a lack of parental care, particularly of men caring about their families. He thanked the City for allowing them to take their community back through the Heart of Boynton initiative. They have established a Youth Choir and an Academic Learning Camp at Congress Middle School starting -lune 17 and ending August 1. They hope this will help the children who currently have to repeat grades at school. Mr. Bryant introduced Dr. C. Lloyd Newton, who had written most of the materials for this program. Mayor Broening stated that this was a remarkable program and he thanked Mr. Bryant for the presentation. Presentation of donation to .lean Wicken, Executive Director of the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation, on behalf of The Links at Boynton Beach, the Ladies & Men's Golf Associations, and the players .loe Sciortino~ Golf Director at The Links, publicly thanked the Commission and the City Manager for continuing to encourage all City departments to do whatever they can to get involved with the community in an effort to improve the quality of life. Mr. Sciortino reported that last year's program raised $6,425.:[5. This year, a team of 1:[9 lady golfers raised $7,674.:[:[ for The Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation and Mayor Broening and Mr. Sciortino presented the check to the representatives of the Foundation. Mr. Sciortino invited Ms..lean Wicken, Executive Director of The Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation, to the podium. She thanked the staff at the Links and Carol Corenthal, former president of the Ladies Golf Association. Ms. Wicken introduced the president of The Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation affiliate, Ms. Debbie Price, who stated that their organization was based almost entirely on volunteer support. Ms. Wicken distributed small pink teddy bears with the breast cancer logo to the members of the City Commission as a token of their appreciation. 4. Presentation of sculpture, entitled the Liberty Statue, to City Commission by Kristina Kramer 5 Meeting Minutes Regular City Commission Boynton Beach~ Florida 3une 4, 2002 Mayor Broening invited Kristina Kramer, 14 years of age, to the podium. Ms. Kramer spoke of the events of September 11 and what a terrible time it had been for the country. She decided to make something to encourage people to get beyond the worst of their hard feelings and look towards making the country better than ever. The wall sculpture she donated looked like the Statue of Liberty because she wanted those who see it to remember what our country stands for. A banner on the statue contains words from Abraham Lincoln's Gettysburg Address: "...that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the/ast fu/I measure of devotion. That here we h/gh/y reso/ve that these dead sha// not have d/ed in va/n, that th/s nat/on, under God, sha// have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the peop/e, by the peop/e, for the peop/e, shou/d not perish from this earth." Mayor Broening announced that the sculpture would be put in the lobby of City Hall and other public places so as many people could see it as possible. XII. LEGAL (Heard out of Agenda Order) C. Resolutions: Proposed Resolution No. R02-092 Re: Authorizing Mayor to execute Partial Release of Lien for 1000 W. Tndustrial Avenue, Boynton Beach Industrial Park North, Lots 5-8 Vice Mayor Weiland invited Scott Blasie, Code Compliance Administrator, to explain the case. Mr. Blasie indicated that the property had been a problem for quite some time and involved some illegal fill operations going back to 1996. The request before the Commission was for a partial release of lien on Lots 5 through 8. The City of Boynton Beach still retains liens on Lots 3 and 4 and staff believed that this would be sufficient to secure the City's financial interests. Mr. Blasie was aware of the concerns about the heavy equipment and debris that remain on Lots 3 and 4. Staff is recommending approval because the respondent has been extremely cooperative with all that the City had asked them to do. There is no reason to doubt that they will finish the job. Chuck t4illar~ Development Planner from Moyle, Flanigan, Katz~ Raymond & Sheehan, P.A., stated that they had a contract to purchase Lots 5-8. The contract purchaser plans to construct a 14,000 square foot building with parking and a maintenance yard for construction equipment. The contract purchaser made several large trenching ditches north and south along Lots 5-8 in order to determine what was buried there. Mr. Millar's firm represents the property owner, not the tenant on Lots 3 and 4, Phoenix Wrecking. Mr. Millar investigated the trenches and determined that most of the buried material was concrete and rebar from some demolished bridges. Mr. Millar's client had just received a Final Judgment on Lots 3 and 4 and had posted a Writ of Possession. They gave Phoenix Wrecking until last Friday to move as much of the equipment as they could but there are still four cranes and some LP tanks. They have gotten bids from contractors in excess of $35K to remove the remaining material. None 6 Meeting Minutes Regular City Commission Boynton Beach, Florida 3une 4, 2009 of the equipment on Lots 3 and 4 will be relocated to any other lot in the area, Mr. Millar thanked Mr. Blasie and Mr. Livergood for their assistance in the matter, Commissioner Fisher asked about the time required for total compliance. Mr, Millar indicated that they would work as diligently as possible to do the work in the next 45 days. Vice Mayor Weiland asked how much equipment had been removed since the Commission released the lien on Lot 9 in February. Mr. Nlillar stated that the tenant had not removed anything from the property until about ten days ago. Motion Commissioner Fisher moved that the lien be released on Lots 5-8 with the stipulation that the remaining properties are to be brought up to Code within 90 days. Vice Mayor Weiland seconded the motion. Attorney Cherof asked if the intent of the motion was that the partial release of lien be held for that 90-day period, contingent upon cleaning up the property. Vice Mayor Weiland stated that this would delay their closing and Mr. Millar agreed that it would. Attorney Cherof suggested that the $18,250 lien funds be held in escrow for that 90-day time period with the contingency that they be released to the City if there is no clean up. Commissioner Fisher amended the motion accordingly. Vice Mayor Weiland agreed. The motion carried 5.0 D. Other: Authorize the City Attorney's office to initiate foreclosure action against the property located at 1102 North Federal Highway Scott Blasie, Code Compliance Administrator, advised that this was a vacant commercial building at the corner of Martin L. King Boulevard and North Federal Highway. Currently, the Code Compliance Division has a fine on the property for $17K plus. They had never been able to contact the property owner. Mr. Blasie believed that there were several years of unpaid taxes on the property. Also, it appears that the property has suffered extensive water damage and some ceilings are coming down. Mr. Blasie brought the case forward in the hope that the City, the CRA, or some other interested party might be interested in pursuing the property so that it could become an asset to the City. MOtion Commissioner Fisher moved to authorize the City Attorney to institute foreclosure proceedings against the property located at 1102 North Federal Highway. Commissioner Ferguson seconded the motion that carried unanimously. VT. PUBL]:C HEARTNG: 6:30 P,M.

Ratification of Planning & Development Board Action' The Watershed Act :[I, ]:nc., Quantum Park PTD (Lots 48A, B & C) - Request Use Approval for a rehabilitative hospital within the Quantum Park P]:D on lots with a master plan designation of Office/Tndustrial (OT) Commissioner PlcCray pul/ed Agenda Item D. 1 for discussion, Consent Item VII.A. 2 - Minutes'-Regular City Commission Meeting of May 21, 2002 Dom Desiderio, 2755 So. Federal Highway, stated that he wanted some clarification. When the Core Grants were discussed on pages 20 and 21 of the subject minutes, Mr. Bressner had stated, "We have $637K in the Utility Fund for these grants." Mr. DesideriO asked why Mr. Bressner's statement was not in the minutes. Mr. Desiderio also commented on his question to Attorney Cherof at the same meeting about using the utility funds, in relation to the assessment against his building. Mayor Broening advised Mr. Desiderio that this was not a correction to the minutes and that the City would look into the voice recording of the meeting and amend the minutes. 9 Meeting Minutes Regular City Commission Boynton Beach, Florida .lune 4, 2007 Mr. Desiderio had a second correction for the minutes on page 16 in the discussion of water and wastewater rate options when Mr. Sugerman was speaking. He had asked a specific question and it was not in the minutes. "]:f ]: have 150 square feet of retail space, ]: am required by Code to have one parking space; yet, on the ERUs, ]: am penalized on that Code because ]: have to pay ERUs on that one parking space." Mayor Broening asked if he wanted that language put in the minutes. Mr. Desiderio stated that he did and that he wanted clarification on this point. Mayor Broening advised that in the future, this kind of matter could be handled more - efficiently by approaching One of the members of the City Commission or the City Clerk. Motion Commissioner Ferguson moved to approve the Consent Agenda except ]:rem D.1. Commissioner McCray seconded the motion that carried unanimously. Consent :Item V:I:I:. D.! -- Ratification of Planning & Development Board Action, The Watershed Act ]:]:, ]:nc., Quantum Park PTD (Lots 48A, B & C) - Request Use Approval for a rehabilitative hospital within the Quantum Park P]:D on lots with a master plan designation of Office/]:ndustrial (O]:) Attorney Cherof adminiStered the oath to all who would be speaking. Mayor Broening asked that the applicant make a brief presentation about the project first. Peter Sachs of Sachs, Sax & Klein, P.A., representative of the applicant, reviewed some of the comments from the recent Planning & Development Board meeting. The site being considered at Quantum Park was chosen after a very meticulous search because 1) the area is essentially industrial, 2) it is on a cul-de-sac, 3) it is a quiet area, and 4) it is not in or near any residential areas. They hope to create many jobs in the medical and medical service area. The Watershed is a for-profit corporation and if permitted this use, will add to the tax base of the City. The Watershed does not treat any criminals or persons that are ordered to go into rehabilitation by the Court, State, or Federal government. The only patients at Watershed are volunteers who want to be there. They are either private-pay or have insurance subsidies. All the patients are adults, 18 years of age or over. They have a medical problem - a chemical dependency. The Watershed provides a service that allows many of these individuals to return as productive members of society. Comments were made at the Planning & Development Board meeting about the potential for aggression, violence, sale of drugs, or other criminal activity if the use were to be permitted. Their law firm undertook an investigation of the activities of The Watershed in Boca Raton. The inquiry involved the Boca Raton Police Department, the Police Department at FlOrida Atlantic University, and the School Board with reference to Boca Raton Middle and High Schools. ]:n three and a half years, there were no cases where a patient of The Watershed did anything to any of its neighbors of an aggressive, criminal, or harassing nature. There were several 911 calls initiated by the patients, who l0 Meeting Minutes Regular City Commission Boynton Beach~ Florida 3une 4, 2002 did not want to complete the program. They do not have the patience for the procedure and medical intervention involved when a patient declares his or her decision to leave. Many of the comments at the Planning & Development Board meeting had to do with safety and containment issues, primarily due to the proximity of the high school. Mr. Sachs believed that many of the issues impinging on safety and containment would be more properly addressed in a site plan review. His client will cooperate with staff, the high school, and concerned parents. They do not want one incident to occur in Boynton Beach. Tf the use is approved, they will work diligently with staff to create a safe, aesthetically pleasing environment for their patients and for their neighbors. Bill Russell, Chief Operations Officer, The Watershed, asked the Commission to adopt the recommendation of staff and ratify the Planning lA Development Board's unanimous 7-0 vote of approval for this use. They intend to cooperate fully with the City and with their neighbors in Quantum Park. They are licenSed by the State of Florida and the Department of Children IA Families and in an April audit, were found to be in full compliance with their standards, with no corrective actions required. They have received accreditation by the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Health Care Organizations. Mr. Russell displayed some artist's renderings of the proposed facility. They plan to create a campus-like facility that will provide a setting of safety and privacy for their patients. Mr. Russell reiterated that their neighbors in Boca Raton hardly know they are there. That is what they want for Boynton Beach. Mr. Russell spoke of the voluntary nature of the patients who go to them for treatment. Even though participation 'is voluntary, when a patient expresses a desire to leave, staff intervenes to see that their affairs are in order and that they have transportation to their destination. :In rare cases a patient might decide to walk out without completing the process that occurs when people ask to leave the program. Tn the last three years he found three instances of people who left during this medical intervention process. They contacted The Watershed after leaving and were encouraged to return to the facility, but declined. ' Mr. Russell expressed his desire to be a good neighbor. Mayor Broening asked if the patients had cars of their own. Mr. Russell stated that when a patient is admitted to their facility, the staff puts any money, credit cards, identification, or car keys into safekeeping. Patients are not permitted to drive their cars while they are in treatment. Commissioner McCray asked whether The Watershed had provided transportation away from the facility for the three patients who had walked out. Mr. Russell stated that The Watershed offered transportation to the patients as part of the medical intervention program, but the patients chose not to complete the process and did walk out the door. Commissioner Fisher stated that they did not walk out without anyone's knowledge or escape and Mr. Russell agreed. 11 Meeting Minutes Regular City Commission Boynton Beach, Florida 3une 4, 200:~ Commissioner McCray stated that everyone was concerned about the children in Boynton Beach as wel as the new Boynton Beach High School. Commissioner McCray read a letter from the School Board on this subject into the record. Dr. Debra Robinson of the School Boarc~ asked Commissioner McCray to read the letter from Tom Lynch, Chairman of the School Board. Dr. Robinson expressed regret that she would not be able to attend the meeting. The letter advised that the proposecJ use must be consistent with the intent and purposes of the PID and asked that any use approval be consistent with other existing uses. The letter also asked that the use approval not pose a detriment to the safety, health, and welfare of the school students and school community. The letter is attached to the original minutes on file in the City Clerk's office. Commissioner Fisher asked that a representative of the School Board be present during site plan approval if the use was approved. The suggestion was made that they could participate during the Public Hearing. Mr. Bressner stated that the information could be made available to them, as a matter of courtesy and information, as the process moves forward. Eileen Schlechting, 230 N.E. 26th Avenue, was concerned about the proximity of the facility to the children at the Boynton Beach High School and the fact that the patients could leave the facility. She believed the property was originally for commercial and residential use and that this would diminish the value of residential property. She wanted to know why they wanted to come to Boynton Beach when they had a facility in Boca Raton. She asked the Commission to deny this use and not let tax dollars cloud their judgment over the future of their children. Beverly Agee, 832 S.W, 33rd Place, spoke as an individual and not as a member of any organization connected with Boynton Beach. She asked the Commissioners to review the project on its merits. She had been concerned throughout her life about the phenomenon known as "NTMBYT~SM", "Not in My Back Yard." Drugs are a serious problem in our society. The number one way to effectuate change is treatment. This organization is no different than the Betty Ford Clinic. Whether individuals or organizations pay makes no difference. They are organized for profit and they want to be successful. Their number one priority will be the safety of our children because they know that this is our concern also. She was as concerned about high school students as anyone but her concern recognizes that high school students are not na'ive any longer. They are street smart and know about drugs and alcohol. Working with this organization is an effective way to help our high school students and not reject an organization that will help so many other people. Brian Miller~ 2515 N,E, 2nd Court~ Apt, 112, spoke as a pharmacist and a former inspector in New Jersey of drug and alcohol facilities and a retired police commissioner. The people that live in the north end of Boynton live in a very high drug use and traffic area. As an inspector for the New Jersey State Department of Health, he witnessed much drug traffic around most of the drug and alcohol facilities that he personally inspected over a period of five years. While a facility like The Watershed has a strong and useful purpose, locating it just 1200 feet from the new high school and in a newly- 12 Meeting Minutes Regular City Commission Boynton Beach, Florida .lune 4,, 2002 developed residential/retail complex is not in the best interest of the new and current residents of Boynton Beach. Allen Stepner, 2600 N.E. Ist Lane, Building 5, indicated that the distance from the schools to the facility in its Boca Raton location was considerably greater than the distance from the new high school to the proposed facility. He had seen what drugs and alcohol could do to individuals and he was pleased to learn of facilities that help people who have problems. He was also concerned about the proximity of the facility to the new residential complex in Quantum Park. He asked the Commission to consider the School Board comments and put safety over profit. Alice Otis, 203 S.W. 13th Street, spoke to a School Board member last Saturday who had spoken to personnel at the new high school, and indicated that the high school did not have any problem with this facility. She was a new member/alternate of the Planning & Development Board and if she had voted, would have voted with the rest of the Board for the facility. A chain link fence surrounds the high school and she believed that the fencing at the new facility would also be adequate. Ms. Otis believed that the people that would be patients at the facility would be like people one would meet every day and not even know that they had a chemical dependency problem. Edward Tedtmann, 869 N.W. 8th Avenue, had no problem with having this facility in the proposed area. He came here to discuss the visual impact of the property, since it abuts his property, but then realized tha;c it was a "use" decision only. He had heard no comments from his neighbors about the proposed facility. Mike Friedland, 330 N.E. 26th Avenue, stated that he had been listening to people talk about drug rehabilitation treatment facilities as if they were all the same. He disagreed, saying there were good ones and bad ones. He spoke of personal family experience with someone who was treated at the Hanley-Hazelden facility in West Palm Beach and that it was an excellent place. Mr. Friedland also spoke of his years as an educator and expressed his love for children and his desire to see them cared for. He did not think anything would happen to the children and the Board that voted in favor of this facility did not either, all seven of them. Mr. Friedland gave the website address and suggested that skeptical people go there and learn something about the facilitymwww.thewatershed.com. .lim Wade, 9878 Sun Pointe Drive, was concerned about he facility being so close to the high school. He was concerned that they did not find out about it until it came out in the newspaper the other day, He wondered why they could not find a better site than one that is right next to a high school. Henrietta Solomon, 230 N.E. 26th Avenue, was told that she should not worry because the clients would be executives and others of that ilk. A rich addict is no less of a threat than a poor one. Ms. Solomon lives in a high crime area and she did not gain any feeling of security after hearing the applicant's presentation. Ms. Henrietta stated that Village Royale was more interested in safety than in improving the tax base. Since 13 Meeting Minutes Regular City Commission Boynton Beach, Florida 3une 4, 2002 they live in a high-crime area already, she did not understand how the Commission could even consider putting this extra burden on them. Mike Fitzpatrick, 101 S,W. 4th Avenue, spoke in favor of the project. He thought it was good that people were concerned about the well being and safety of the students of the Boynton Beach High School; however, at the Planning & Development Board meeting, and at this meeting tonight, those who are against it have not made a case as to how the 1/4 mile proximity to the high school threatens the students. Tf a patient left the facility, they would not go to the high school because there are no drugs or alcohol on campus. Patients know that. They also know about the Drug Free Zones around the school. If they somehow managed to find drugs and were caught, they know they would not be returning to the facility but to jail. He asked that people not "demonize" the future patients. Addiction is a disease, The clients are patients, not career criminals. Mr. FitzPatrick explained that they were relocating to Boynton Beach because there was no room for expansion in Boca Raton. Herb Suss, citizen of Boynton Beach, stated that he had been on the School Board in New York State in the past and he wished that there were even more facilities to help youngsters. He felt that if one human being were saved in that facility, it would be worth it. He commended and respected the Planning & Development Board and felt that they were looking out for the welfare of the City's residents. He felt that the applicant would cooperate in every way with the City. He suggested that people get NIMBY out of their minds. Maurice Rosenstock, I Villa Lane, stated that most of the people in the audience had not been around when Quantum had gotten started. The original conforming use in Quantum Park at the beginning was for research facilities. From that we have jumped to warehouses and various other uses. Times change and the need for facilities changes. Mr. Rosenstock noted that he had been a member of the Planning & Development Board for eleven years. He made some calls on his own to inquire about The Watershed. The final call was made to his daughter, Ellen Horehouse, the president of a very large, not- for-profit company, called The Students Assistance Corporation, one of the foremost organizations in the United States aiding students with drug abuse and alcoholism problems. He asked her what the histori.ca! record was on this type of facility in various states and what the relationship was between such facilities and their neighborhoods. Ms. rvlorehouse stated that there were two types of places. If it is a place where someone is going to be incarcerated or where they are mandated to be because of a Court Order, with fences and police patrols, they have escapes and they have problems. Facilities such as The Watershed, where people go voluntarily, do not have a police problem. She emphasized this because the same emotional discussion of possibilities takes place in every community where these places are going to be built. He believed that once the Commissioners had weighed all the factors at hand, they would find that most of the evidence would suggest approval of this use. 14 Meeting Hinutes Regular City Commission Boynton Beach~ Florida 3une 4, 2002 Commissioner Fisher asked Chief Gage to speak about the results of their research of The Watershed and where a person would be taken if picked up. Harshall Gage, Chief of Police, stated that if they picked somebody up they would take them to South County Hospital. They do not take people to facilities that do not accept committed patients. The facility in question only accepts volunteer patients and is not a facility the police would deal with in normal circumstances. A search by staff of the records of the Boca Raton Police Department in reference to this facility showed that there were 68 calls for service since .lanuary of last year, which equates to one call per week for service. There were no calls for service that indicated any concern for staff that this was a type of business that would create anything other than the type of calls a lot of businesses in this City already generate. There were no serious crimes reported in the report from Boca Raton that raised any flags that would cause him to recommend a second look at the facility. The specific Statute that governs these facilities requires the facility to provide security for their patients and security in the event that any of their patients need restraining. As long as they comply with these requirements, Chief Gage did not see any issues that would create an inordinate amount of calls for service by this organization and saw no indicators that would create "over-concern" with their proximity to the high school. Commissioner McCray inquired about how many males and females were in the patient population. Mr. Russell stated that there were usually 60% male and 40% female. Commissioner McCray asked if the patients that would be coming to their facility would be coming from Palm Beach County only. Mr. Russell stated that patients would be welcome to come to their facility from the local area or anywhere in the United States. Commissioner McCray asked if the Police Department would be notified if they saw someone walking out of the facility. Hr. Russell stated that in the rare event that this happened, the physician in charge would review the patient's record, if the physician felt that there was any possibility of harm coming to the patient, the police would be notified. They would also notify the family members and friends of the patient. Commissioner McCray believed that not all of the information had been discussed during the Planning & Development Board meeting, specifically the instances of the three individuals who had left the treatment program in the past. He felt this had misled the Planning & Development Board. vice Mayor Weiland echoed the comments of Beverly Agee and applauded The Watershed for their efforts. He has four children of his own to be concerned about and does .care about children. In his business, he had provided service to two different rehabilitation facilities in the local area over the past twenty-two years. Although they may be in business to make a profit, he had personally found that the operators of such facilities are very compassionate and caring people. The facilities are normally placed in a very serene setting and he believed this might be why they chose Quantum Park. in reference to decreasing property values, he thought that Quantum Limited Partners would not have entered into a contract with The Watershed if they believed it would affect values in Quantum Park. Vice Mayor Weiland thought it was important to note that the people who become clients of The Watershed do so voluntarily and that the 15 Meeting Minutes Regular City Commission Boynton Beach, Florida 3une 4, 2002 people to worry about are the ones that do not check in to these facilities. Vice Mayor Weiland expressed the belief that this was a great opportunity to help our society and make Boynton Beach a better place in which to live. Commissioner Ferguson was disturbed by the stigma that still surrounds chemical dependency. He wondered whether a facility for treating disabled veterans would have generated the same concerns. He indicated that chemical dependency is a disease, just like any other medical problem. He was in favor of this project because there were no problems in Boca Raton. Also, seven people from different walks of life on the Planning & Development Board had considered the matter and voted in favor of it and he found this quite persuasive. Mayor Broening stated that he had some knowledge of chemical dependency from his own family circle and that there would have been no way to tell that this person was an addict with all of its ramifications and stigma. On November 7; 1975, he met a lady at Luke Air Force Base in Phoenix, Nevada, who made quite an impression on him because she was an addict. Nobody knew at that time that she was an addict. Her name was Betty Ford, First Lady of the United States. She was no threat to national security or to anyone. She was a charming and gracious lady who had a chemical dependency condition based upon prescription drugs. :[n Mayor Broening's former corporate life at Pratt & Whitney, there was a very close relationship with Hanley-Hazelden because they had 13,500 employees and in a group that large, many suffer from the disease of chemical dependency. They invested a lot of money in recovering many very valuable people. The recovery rate in the program is extraordinarily high. That is what this is. This is not a bunch of drug people like you see on television but respectable and useful people, once they are rehabilitated. :It is not wrong to makea profit on it because there are a lot of hospitals that make a profit and treat everything imaginable. Commissioner McCray stated that he was concerned with the safety of all citizens in Boynton Beach, including the children and the elderly. The high crime district mentioned earlier is his district. He was concerned about the elderly people who are at home with the drug addicts that are running around now during the days not locked up. Motion Commissioner Ferguson moved to approve the request for use approval for The Watershed Act :[:[, :[nc. for a rehabilitative hospital within the Quantum Park P:[D on lots with a master plan designation of Office/:[ndustrial (OI). Vice Mayor Weiland seconded the motion. The motion carried 4-1, Commissioner McCray dissenting. THE HEE7'ZNG RECESSED .4 T 8:45 AND RE¢ONVENED .4 T 9:00 P. hl. E.

Commissioner Fisher asked and received confirmation that an emergency meeting could be called to address a particular subject, with proper public notice, if necessary. 17 Meeting Minutes Regular City Commission Boynton Beach~ Florida 3une 4, 2002 Motion Commissioner Fisher moved to cancel the .July 16, 2002 City Commission meeting. Commissioner McCray seconded the motion that carried 4-1, Corem~ss~one/' ?ergu$on dissenting7. Discussion regarding City Commission expense allowance being revised each year on .luly I to reflect cost of living changes Herb Suss, citizen of Boynton Beach, spoke in favor of a cost of living increase for the Commissioners. Commissioner Ferguson stated that one aspect of the Commissioner's compensation was salary and this was scheduled for consideration at the .lune 18 meeting.' The other aspect was expenses, which range from $375 to $450 a month. He suggested that each year on .luly 1, a cost of living increase be granted, based on the Bureau of Labor Statistics and Consumer Price Index, and that it be incorporated in each year's budget at the beginning of the fiscal year. The last time that the expenses were changed was in 1991. Motion Commissioner Ferguson moved to have a ResOlution produced reflecting his statement relative to an annual cost of living inc_rease for Commissioners tied to the Bureau of Labor Statistics and Consumer Price Index.

Commissioner Fisher initiated a discussion on the topic of halfway houses in homes and condos and the use of their beds in an unregulated fashion. Boca Raton and Delray Beach had recently legislated them out and Commissioner Fisher was concerned that they might want to come to Boynton Beach. Attorney Cherof suggested that a stand-alone Ordinance be drafted to cover all zoning districts in the City and that it could be ready at the July 2, 2002 City Commission meeting. Mr. Bressner noted that the CRA and the Planning & Development Board would have to hear the matter first. Commissioner Fisher asked that staff expedite the process.

UNF:[N:[SHED BUSZNESS: A. City Manager Employment Agreement Amendment 20 Meeting Minutes Regular City Commission Boynton Beach,. Florida 3une 4, 2002 Dom Desiderio, 2755 So. Federal Highway, stated that he was unable to find any backup information on this item when he picked up the agenda at the City Clerk's office. Mr. Bressner stated that Mayor Broening would report on this at the meeting. Commissioner Fisher offered Mr. Desiderio his copy to read. Herb Suss, citizen of Boynton Beach, said that he was more than satisfied with the work being done by the City Manager and thought he should be paid at the same level as other City Managers in other municipalities. He thought Mr. Bressner was grossly underpaid in comparison to other City Managers around the State. He praised Mr. Bressner as a tireless worker and someone that was always available to speak with the residents of the City. Dom Desiderio~ 2755 So. Federal Highway~ stated that he had no problem with anyone getting a raise based on what that person does for the community. He knew Mr. Bressner had done a lot for the community but stated that as a small businessperson, his cost of doing business had increased since Mr. Bressner had come to the City. He asked Mr. Bressner if there would be any way that he could work with him to alleviate some of the problems that had come to his small business on Federal Highway. ]:t was Mr. Desiderio's belief that the small businessman in the City was getting the brunt of all these increases and that something had to be done because it was not fair. He asked that the City do something for the little guy. Mayor Broening noted that the request before the Commission was a request by Mr. Bressner to increase his annual salary to $118,000 from his present salary of $105,000 and to adjust the City's contribution to his deferred compensation program to the lesser of ten per cent of salary, or $11,500, based on new [RS rules which allow for increased contributions. Commissioner Fisher addressed Mr. Desiderio, saying that Mr. Bressner presents options to the Commissioners and that the Commissioners can either approve or disapprove them. He recalled his experience in the City under other administrations and pointed to the financial improvements the City had experienced based on Mr. Bressner's ideas, including Mr. Bressner's success in reducing the storm water ERUs and in garnering more than $7M in grant money for the City. Commissioner Fisher noted the disparity between Mr. Bressner's salary request and the salary of the Delray Beach City Manager, which is $10K higher, in a city with one thousand fewer people. He thought the increase should be granted but wanted the Commissioners to consider the fact that Mr. Bressner could go to work in a neighboring city for more money and to remember this when the issue comes up the following year. Commissioner Ferguson stated he was going to vote in favor of the increase to show a unified vision to the community, but believed something in the vicinity of $114K would be more appropriate. Commissioner McCray noted that he had an opportunity to go to a conference lately and after listening to the problems other cities were having, came away with even more respect for the City Manager. Commissioner McCray was absolutely amazed to discover 21 Meeting Minutes Regular City Commission Boynton Beach,. Florida 3une 4~ 2002 how "on track" Boynton Beach was under Mr. Bressner's leadership. He was in favor of granting the request. Vice Mayor Weiland stated that the City Manager had reduced his salary request at the urging of indiVidual Commissioner(s) during their weekly one-to-one meetings with him. While Mr. Bressner's talents could command more mOney, Vice MaYor Weiland believed that Mr. Bressner's heart was in the job here in Boynton Beach and that he planned to stay in Boynton Beach. Mayor Broening did not believe that the salary being requested was competitive compared to the salaries of other city managers. He pointed to the extraordinary credibility and respect Mr. Bressner is given by his peers, throughout the country, not just in the cities in which he served. He has expertise in finance, public works, writing, and all aspects of government, and is as good as the best in his game. Mayor Broening believes in Mr. Bressner's loyalty but is keenly aware of the disparity in the salary he requested and the salaries paid to his peers in other cities with similar climates. A fundamental issue of fairness exists. While he planned to vote in favor of the increase, it was a personal concession to go along with anything less than a competitive salary. Motion Commissioner Fisher moved to approve an annual salary of $118,000 for City Manager Kurt Bressner and to adjust the Ciys contribution to his deferred compensation program to the lesser of ten per cent of salary, or $11,$00. Commissioner Ferguson seconded the motion. Mr. Bressner noted that a unanimous vote on this issue was as important to him as any money or benefits and that this was why he had made the suggestions that he had regarding the salary amount. He appreciated Commissioner Ferguson's comments and welcomed his public willingness to go along with the request. The motion carried 5-0. XIV.

Our camp is unique because we incorporate reading, writing and arithmetic with all the fun of summer camp. We work on academics in the mornings and socially enriched activities in the afternoon. Each camper receives an individual education program based on their needs. Needs are determined by their schools, parents and our staff. All programs are in small groups. Children have no homework, but work very hard on practicing the basics. We incorporate many different types of instructional strategies, including but not limited to, Multi-Sensory Reading techniques, phonics, and whole language based approaches. PHILOSOPHY The MAD DADS of Boynton Beach Academic/Learmng Camp program is based on the philosophy that every child needs to experience success in order to develop a positive self-image. For many children this success comes naturally in the day-to-day interactions with their peers, teachers and coaches. However, for a large population of middle school adolescents, a more structured and professionally supervised setting, is necessary to create an environment more conducive to success. Our camp provides a support system that allows adolescents to have successful experiences while participating in a variety of traditional camping activities. We feel that middle school adolescents, in general, function best in a noncompetitive environment in which they are provided with a great deal of instructional and social support. Activities are broken down into their most elementary skills and instructors do not assume that campers have mastered age appropriate skill levels. The campers are helped to pursue the mastery of a skill at a pace that is comfortable. Most critical to the success of MAD DADS of Boynton Beach's program is our emphasis on the development of age appropriate social skills.
