These obligations include, but are not limited to: a. Taking reasonable measures to protect and secure data in electronic form containing personal information; and b. Providing notice to the City in the event of a breach of security of the SUBRECIPIENT’s system as expeditiously as practicable, but no later than ten (10) calendar days following the determination of the breach of security or reason to believe the breach occurred. 58 Community Development Block Grant Subaward Agreement City of Boynton Beach and Pathways to Prosperity, Inc.

Article 21: Remedies for Noncompliance A. Remedies for Noncompliance. Pursuant to 2 CFR § 200.339 (“Remedies for Noncompliance”), if the SUBRECIPIENT fails to comply with the U.S. Constitution, federal statutes, regulations, or the terms and conditions of a Federal Award or any additional conditions that the Federal Awarding Agency or City may impose, and the Federal Awarding Agency or City determine that such noncompliance cannot be remedied by imposing additional conditions, the Federal Awarding Agency or City may take one or more of the following actions, as appropriate in the circumstances: 1. Temporarily withhold cash payments pending correction of the deficiency by the SUBRECIPIENT or more severe enforcement action by the Federal Awarding Agency or City; 2.

As such, the City may terminate this Agreement for convenience by providing a written thirty (30) calendar day notice to the SUBRECIPIENT. B. Termination by the SUBRECIPIENT. Pursuant to 2 CFR § 200.340(a)(4), the SUBRECIPIENT may terminate this Agreement upon sending the City written notification setting forth the reasons for such termination, the effective date, and, in the case of partial termination, the portion to be terminated. However, in the case of partial termination, if the City determines that the reduced or modified portion of the Subaward will not accomplish the purposes for which the Subaward was made, the City may terminate the Subaward in its entirety. Additionally, a SUBRECIPIENT’s failure to complete performance on a Subaward in the manner initially agreed upon may compromise the SUBRECIPIENT’s ability to receive subawards, other grants, or any other contract opportunities from the City in the future. 59 Community Development Block Grant Subaward Agreement City of Boynton Beach and Pathways to Prosperity, Inc. Page 23 of 30 C. Termination for Cause. 1. Immediate Termination. a.

Opportunity to Cure. Without creating an obligation to provide an opportunity to cure or accept the SUBRECIPIENT’s proposed cure if such an opportunity is provided, the City reserves the right to provide the SUBRECIPIENT the opportunity to cure any stated breach. Such opportunity to cure can be used in tandem with, or in lieu of, a Letter of Findings issued in accordance with Article 15 (“Monitoring Requirements”) of this Agreement. If the City provides such opportunity to cure, shall: a. Provide the opportunity to cure as a part of the City’s breach of contract and termination notice; and b.

Page 24 of 30 4. In the Event of Wrongful Termination for Cause. If a court of competent jurisdiction determines that this Agreement was wrongfully terminated for cause, then the SUBRECIPIENT’s damages for such termination, if any, shall be the same as if the City terminated this Agreement for convenience. D. Reporting to Federal Awarding Agency. If the City determines that termination of this Agreement was due to the SUBRECIPIENT’s material failure to comply with the Subaward’s terms and conditions, the City reserves the right to report the SUBRECIPIENT to the Federal Awarding Agency so that it may report the termination to the OMB-designated integrity and performance system accessible through the federal System of Award Management (“SAM”).

No other damages, fees, or costs may be assessed against the City for its termination of the Agreement. G. Force Majeure. 1. The SUBRECIPIENT shall not be held responsible for any delay or failure in performance of any part of this Agreement to the extent such delay or failure is caused by explosion, war, embargo, government requirement, civil or military authority, pandemic, act of God, or other similar causes beyond the SUBRECIPIENT’s control so long as the SUBRECIPIENT’s delay 61 Community Development Block Grant Subaward Agreement City of Boynton Beach and Pathways to Prosperity, Inc. Page 25 of 30 is not caused by the SUBRECIPIENT’s own fault or negligence. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the SUBRECIPIENT cannot claim Force Majeure under this provision for any emergency, exigency, or “Act of God” that is specifically contemplated within the “Scope of Services” of this Agreement, or which in any way existed at the time this Agreement was executed. 2. The above notwithstanding, in order to claim delay pursuant to this provision, the SUBRECIPIENT shall notify the City in writing within seven (7) business days after the beginning of any such cause that would affect its performance under this Agreement.

CIRCLES Boynton Beach Program Overview: Circles Palm Beach County is based on a model that empowers people in poverty to build intentional relationships across income and class lines. Circles is a nationwide, proven anti-poverty strategy recognizing a family’s upward mobility is inextricably linked to the economic & social capital of their personal and professional “circles”. Circles’ unique, comprehensive curriculum identifies and addresses barriers keeping people in poverty. Circles is a highly effective program: within our most recent cohort of graduates, 33% experienced increased income within the first 6 months of program participation. 41% of Boynton Beach Circles’ participants increased their savings in the last year, with an average savings increase of $4,111. Circles PBC will serve 21 Circle Leaders from Boynton Beach and their families, for a total of 50 individuals from Boynton Beach served. Participants will receive family stabilization support and financial literacy, dinner, childcare, and support with transportation for Circles-related meetings, plus case management and wrap- around support. Scope of Services: Circles matches people living in poverty, or “Circle Leaders”, with middle- to upper-income volunteers, called “Allies”, to establish relationships across class lines and create multidimensional support systems. Circles staff, or “Coaches”, provide financial literacy, transitional services, guide goal-setting and match Circle Leaders with a volunteer Ally. Allies support them in reaching their goals: increasing savings or skills, getting a job or a better one, making sound financial and other life decisions. The Circles Case Manager provides wrap-around support such as obtaining government IDs, safe/stable housing, food security, healthcare access, emergency financial support when needed, parenting and childcare resources, and more. Circle Leader training is conducted in cohorts of 15 to 20 individuals for 15 to 18 weeks, culminating in a graduation celebration. Participants assess their current relationships, resources and reason or purpose for making the necessary changes to escape from poverty permanently. During this time Allies also attend training sessions that increase awareness of poverty issues within the families they will be matched with as well as issues that affect the community as a whole. After graduating from Circle Leader training, participants are matched with an Ally for a minimum of 18 months, where the real work begins. They work towards reaching their SMART goals in 3 key areas: financial, educational, and social. Moving forward, weekly Community Meetings gather Circle Leaders, Allies, Coaches, and other interested community members to provide support and networking opportunities, with topics such as how to start a business (with speakers from CRA) and first time homebuying (with local real estate professionals). Big View Meetings are held once per month, and feature a far-ranging discussion of the causes of poverty in the community and how to address them for the long term, in the process removing systemic barriers. A 12-person Guiding Coalition, spearheaded by Circle Leader graduates, helps determine programmatic direction and meets once per month. We also host monthly Circle Leader and Ally mixers, where everyone breaks bread together while discussing challenges and sharing successes. Dinner, childcare, and support with transportation for all Circles-related meetings is provided. Children of Circle Leaders and Allies are introduced to financial literacy education through our Circles for Youth program, where they, too, create Dream Boards, set SMART goals, open bank accounts, and participate in savings challenges much 77 Exhibit B Scope of Services Community Development Block Grant Subaward Agreement City of Boynton Beach and Pathways to Prosperity, Inc. like the adult participants. $35,000 of CDBG funds will be used to support our Chief Operating Officer, who provides oversight of the Circles program and the Circles Director, ensuring deliverables are met, verifying, gathering and disseminating outcomes to funders and other stakeholders.

The SUBRECIPIENT shall not be held responsible for any delay or failure in performance of any part of this Agreement to the extent such delay or failure is caused by explosion, war, embargo, government requirement, civil or military authority, pandemic, act of God, or other similar causes beyond the SUBRECIPIENT’s control so long as the SUBRECIPIENT’s delay 105 Community Development Block Grant Subaward Agreement City of Boynton Beach and Boynton Beach Faith Based Community Development Corporation, Inc. Page 25 of 30 is not caused by the SUBRECIPIENT’s own fault or negligence. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the SUBRECIPIENT cannot claim Force Majeure under this provision for any emergency, exigency, or “Act of God” that is specifically contemplated within the “Scope of Services” of this Agreement, or which in any way existed at the time this Agreement was executed. 2.

DOE updated this guidance from the version issued in 2011 (EECBG Program Notice 10-021) to reflect the changes Congress made to EISA when it signed IJJA into law. This updated version provides guidance to EECBG Program grantees regarding the types of eligible activities that are considered allowable use of funds under one or more of the 14 eligible activity categories for the EECBG Program.4 Recipients of EECBG Program grants (including entities receiving sub-grants) or vouchers can use this guidance to determine eligible activities that support EECBG Program goals and implementation strategies. The 1 42 U.S.C. 17151 et seq. 2 42 U.S.C. 17152(b). 3 42 U.S.C. 17154 4 This guidance only addresses categories 1-14 outlined in Section 544 of EISA. Category 15 is defined in law as “any other appropriate activity, as determined by the Secretary, in consultation with the Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency, the Secretary of Transportation, and the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development.” 242 Page | 3 guidance also identifies activities that are prohibited or where limitations on use of funds exist, as established by the EECBG statute or determined by DOE. This guidance is not intended to be exhaustive. If an eligible entity has a question regarding the eligibility of a specific activity, the eligible entity should contact the EECBG Program at eecbg@hq.doe.gov or their Project Officer. In general, the overall objective of each eligible activity should be the attainment of, or the plan to attain, increased energy efficiency and conservation, or fossil fuel reduction. These activities should bear in mind an equitable distribution of community investment and projects serving disadvantaged communities, in line with the Justice40 Initiative. Projects related to regular maintenance or repairs are not eligible. Eligible entities may apply their funds to one or more projects, as long as each project falls within one of the 14 categories of eligible uses of funds. Equity and Environmental Justice Per President Biden’s Executive Order 14008, the Federal Government has established the goal that 40 percent of the overall benefits of certain Federal investments flow to disadvantaged communities 5 (“DACs”).6 This government-wide effort is called the Justice40 Initiative. The EECBG Program is a Justice40-covered program and thus contributes to the goal that 40 percent of the overall benefits of federal investments in clean energy and climate solutions flow to DACs. DOE has released General Guidance on Justice40 Implementation designed to help eligible entities and other interested parties incorporate Justice40 Initiative goals into DOE-funded projects.7 DOE has identified the following benefits that can flow to DACs as a result of EECBG Program funding. Specifically, benefits include, but are not limited to measurable direct or indirect or positive project outcomes that achieve or contribute to the following in DACs: 1) a decrease in energy burden; 2) a decrease in environmental exposure and burdens; 3) an increase in access to low-cost capital; 4) an increase in job creation, the clean energy job pipeline, and job training for individuals; 5) increases in clean energy enterprise creation and contracting (e.g., minority-owned or disadvantaged business enterprises); 6) increases in energy democracy, including community ownership; 7) increased parity in clean energy technology access and adoption; and 8) an increase in energy resilience. 5 Also referred to as underserved, overburdened, and frontline communities. 6 Pursuant to Executive Order (EO) 14008, “Tackling the Climate Crisis at Home and Abroad,” January 27, 2021, and the Office of Management and Budget’s Interim Justice40 Implementation Guidance M-21-28, DOE recognizes DACs as defined and identified by the White House Council of Environmental Quality’s Climate and Economic Justice Screening Tool (CEJST), which can be located at https://screeningtool.geoplatform.gov/. 7 Final DOE Justice40 General Guidance 072522.pdf (energy.gov) 243 Page | 4 Further, the EECBG Program encourages eligible entities to include the participation of underserved communities8 and underrepresented groups in the activities they undertake with EECBG Program funds. EECBG Program eligible entities are highly encouraged to include contractors and sub-contractors from historically underrepresented groups9,10 in their project scoping. Further, Minority Serving Institutions,11 Minority Business Enterprises, Minority Owned Businesses, Woman Owned Businesses, Veteran Owned Businesses, or entities located in an underserved community that meet EECBG Program eligibility requirements are encouraged to be considered as sub-recipients for proposed EECBG Program-funded projects. Blueprints and Technical Assistance DOE has developed or identified resources to assist EECBG Program recipients with development of their energy efficiency and conservation strategies and project implementation plans, including Blueprints and Technical Assistance available from the EECBG Program and other DOE programs. These resources are intended to supplement the award funding received through either a formula or competitive award from DOE. Blueprints are step-by-step roadmaps of energy project and programs that guide EECBG Program entities to success. While not an exclusive list, the blueprints highlight a select number high-impact projects and programs based on proven practices that entities can choose to follow. Though entities may use their EECBG Program funds for a wide array of energy-related activities, those that choose to spend their EECBG Program funds exclusively on “key activities” listed in the blueprints should expect a streamlined and expedited application review because these key activities fall within eligible uses of EECBG Program funds, and most of the blueprint activities are covered by NEPA Statements of Work. 8 The Office of Management and Budget Interim Implementation Guidance for Justice40 defines a disadvantaged community as either: (1) a group of individuals living in geographic proximity (such as census tract), or (2) a geographically dispersed set of individuals (such as migrant workers or Native Americans), where either type of group experiences common conditions. 9 According to the National Science Foundation’s 2019 report titled, “Women, Minorities and Persons with Disabilities in Science and Engineering”, women, persons with disabilities, and underrepresented minority groups— blacks or African Americans, Hispanics or Latinos, and American Indians or Alaska Natives—are vastly underrepresented in the STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) fields that drive the energy sector. For example, in the U.S., Hispanics, African Americans and American Indians or Alaska Natives make up 24 percent of the overall workforce, yet only account for 9 percent of the country’s science and engineering workforce. DOE seeks to inspire underrepresented Americans to pursue careers in energy and support their advancement into leadership positions. https://www.energy.gov/articles/introducing-minorities-energy-initiative 10 Note that Congress recognized in section 305 of the American Innovation and Competitiveness Act of 2017, Public Law 114-329: “[I]t is critical to our Nation’s economic leadership and global competitiveness that the United States educate, train, and retain more scientists, engineers, and computer scientists; (2) there is currently a disconnect between the availability of and growing demand for STEM-skilled workers; (3) historically, underrepresented populations are the largest untapped STEM talent pools in the United States; and (4) given the shifting demographic landscape, the United States should encourage full participation of individuals from underrepresented populations in STEM fields.” 11 Minority Serving Institutions (MSIs), including Historically Black Colleges and Universities/Other Minority Institutions as educational entities recognized by the Office of Civil Rights (OCR), U.S. Department of Education, and identified on the OCR's Department of Education U.S. accredited postsecondary minorities’ institution list. 244 Page | 5 The blueprints span a wide variety of topic areas: energy planning, energy efficiency, renewable energy, transportation infrastructure, workforce development, and financing.

DOE must also consider the effects on historic properties, pursuant to Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA). Additionally, DOE must consider the impacts to floodplains and wetlands, pursuant to 10 CFR Part 1022—Compliance with Floodplain and Wetland Environmental Review Requirements. To streamline these required reviews, DOE carries out each of these reviews under the umbrella of its NEPA review. Grantees should review and follow the NEPA determination (the form that DOE uses to document NEPA reviews) in their award documents for restrictions, and the list of activities that have been categorically excluded from further NEPA review. NEPA Statements of Work (SOW) have been created and placed on the EECBG Program Formula Application Hub webpage to provide expedited reviews of blueprints and other activities. The NEPA SOWs apply to different applicants and include either ground disturbing activities or nonground disturbing activities. Applicants should review the SOWs to ensure the correct one is selected, if applicable. SOWs with ground disturbing activities require quarterly reporting for all activities. DOE staff will require submission of an Environmental Questionnaire (EQ1) for a NEPA review through the Project Management Center (PMC) if a NEPA SOW is not utilized. 12 This list shows proposed Blueprints by topic area as of April 2023. Blueprint topic areas may be added or revised, based on grantee and stakeholder interests, and effectiveness in achieving program goals.

ITEMS TO CONSIDER • The replacement of a lighting fixture, an arm, a pole, or any part of a light is an eligible use of funds if the more efficient lighting technology necessitates such a replacement. However, regular maintenance is an ineligible cost. For example, EECBG Program funds cannot be used to replace a rotten pole due to insufficient maintenance. LED lights should be procured with strong 23 A “street light” is an outdoor source of light that is raised and that is intended to provide functional illumination to the area below the light. 266 Page | 27 warranty terms and meet certifications (e.g., ENERGY STAR or otherwise) to ensure energy performance, longevity and lighting quality over time. • When considering which locations to make street light improvements, consider incorporating approaches to ensure equitable access to street light improvements, such as scoring criteria that consider equity, safety, and access. 267 Page | 28 Category (13) On-site Renewable Energy On or In a Government Building STATUTORY LANGUAGE Development, implementation, and installation on or in any government building of the eligible entity of onsite renewable energy technology that generates electricity from renewable resources, including— A. Solar energy; B. Wind energy; C. Fuel cells; and D. Biomass. PROGRAM GUIDANCE • The activity must be for the development, implementation, and installation of onsite renewable energy technology (e.g., solar energy, wind energy, fuel cells, or biomass); • The installation of the renewable energy technology must be on, in or under a government building 24 of the eligible entity (the renewable technology is considered installed on a government building if it is installed on a government-owned site and connected to the government building behind the meter); and • The renewable energy technology must be for the generation of electricity, or result in more efficient heating/cooling. The renewable energy source need not provide a building’s entire electricity usage and not all of the electricity needs to physically go into the government building. • The installation of renewable energy technologies on commercial buildings, or other non- government buildings or sites, is not an eligible use of funds under Category 13. Renewable energy technologies, however, are eligible for installation on non-governmental buildings under Category 14, as part of programs for financing and installing energy efficiency, renewable energy, and zero emissions transportation systems, including financing programs, grants, incentives or rebates.25 EXAMPLE ELIGIBLE ACTIVITIES • Financing mechanisms that enable this activity such as power purchase agreements for solar PV installations on multiple government buildings 24 For the purpose of eligible under the EECBG Program, “government building of the eligible entity” generally means a building built by or for the use of the government that is the grantee/recipient of award funds. This includes buildings owned or leased by the eligible entity. This does NOT include state, Federal, or other government buildings that are not government buildings of the eligible entity. In the case of tribal governments, exclusions from the definition of tribal government buildings are privately owned tribal housing and commercial buildings; facilities owned by 501(c) (3) entities (unless the organization was chartered and delegated by the Tribe to act on its behalf); and those owned by a Federal Agency (e.g., U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Indian Affairs, etc.) 25 Entities proposing to purchase and install renewable energy technologies on government buildings may include the proposed activities under either Category 13 or 14. 268 Page | 29 • Installation of renewable energy technologies (e.g., solar energy, wind energy, fuel cells, or biomass) at or on government property TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE OPPORTUNITY • Blueprint 4A: Solar + Storage - Power Purchase Agreements and Direct Ownership • Blueprint 4D: Renewable Resource Planning • National Renewable Energy Lab provide technical assistance to Local Governments around Waste-to-Energy • Additional technical assistance around specific technology areas, including solar, may be available through various DOE offices and national laboratories. For the latest, visit the EECBG Technical Assistance webpage. ITEMS TO CONSIDER • In addition to locational and structural characteristics (such as roof conditions, shading, orientation, etc.), considering the projects’ proximity to electrical infrastructure is critical for solar and wind projects (behind-the-meter projects exempted). • Leveraging eligible energy efficiency and conservation activities can reduce the cost of on-site renewable energy investments by meeting a government building’s energy requirements with less on-site generation capacity. • Activities under this category should align with the local policy context, including siting limitations; utility-specific requirements for interconnections; state policies and programs such as renewable energy credits, rebates, and net metering; and available federal incentives, including tax credits.26 • Prioritize sites that directly serve the community and that provide one or more infrastructure and services to the community. For example, consider community centers, water and wastewater treatment facilities, police and fire stations, schools, libraries, and other facilities that could benefit from on-site renewable energy systems by lowering energy costs, and enhancing community resilience, such as providing backup power or emergency shelter in the event of a natural disaster or extended power outage (including when combined with energy storage systems, as described in Category 9). 26 Consider exploring siting resources provided by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory, such as the Clean Energy to Communities Program. 269 Page | 30 Category (14) Programs for Financing, Purchasing, and Installing Energy Efficiency, Renewable Energy, and Zero-emission Transportation (and associated infrastructure) Measures and Capital Investments, Projects, and Programs for Leveraging Public and Private Sector Funds STATUTORY LANGUAGE Programs for financing energy efficiency, renewable energy, and zero-emission transportation (and associated infrastructure), capital investments, projects, and programs, which may include loan programs and performance contracting programs, for leveraging of additional public and private sector funds, and programs that allow rebates, grants, or other incentives for the purchase and installation of energy efficiency, renewable energy, and zero-emission transportation (and associated infrastructure) measures PROGRAM GUIDANCE • This category may include the purchase and deployment of energy efficiency, renewable energy, and zero emissions technologies.

Requested Action: Staff recommends approval of Proposed Resolution No. R24-213. Explanation of Request: Section 162.09(3), Florida Statutes, provides that code compliance liens run in favor of the local governing body, and the local governing body may agree to satisfy or release code compliance liens. When a property owner remits payment for a code enforcement lien in full or pays City- established administrative fees for a partial release of lien, a release of lien is required to clear title to the real property encumbered by the lien. The Attorney General has concluded that a local governing body, such as the City Commission, may delegate its authority to execute satisfactions or releases of code enforcement liens so long as such delegation does not result in a complete divestiture of such liens by the City Commission to a private party. This resolution authorizes the Mayor to execute full and partial releases of code enforcement liens when the applicable fines or fees have been paid to the City. How will this affect city programs or services? The release of code enforcement liens is important as these liens can involve properties that are often subject to real estate transactions.

City of Boynton Beach, EEOC Charge No. 510-2024 and related claims. Requested Action: Staff recommends approval of proposed Resolution No. R24-216. Explanation of Request: Kathryn Matos has served as the City’s Assistant City Manager since 2019. Ms. Matos filed an EEOC charge against the City of Boynton Beach, alleging violations of the Americans with Disabilities Act and the Florida Civil Rights Act, and related damages. Ms. Matos’ charge is based on the alleged unauthorized disclosure of Ms. Matos’ private health information to the Mayor and the media by the City’s former Director of Human Resources, Tennille DeCoste. The Settlement Agreement provides for payment of $100,000 for the settlement and release of Ms. Matos’ EEOC claim against the City, including all attorney’s fees and costs. Concurrently with the Settlement Agreement, Ms. Matos will also execute a Separation Agreement, resigning her employment with the City and releasing the City from any and all claims related to her employment. Ms. Matos will receive payment of her severance and any accrued time off (vacation and sick leave) per City policies. Ms. Matos reserves the right to pursue legal action against Ms. DeCoste in her personal capacity. The City Code provides that the settlement of all claims over $50,000 requires approval from the City Commission. How will this affect city programs or services? The City does not admit liability in this matter by approving the settlement. If the Commission chooses not to approve the settlement, the litigation between the parties will continue resulting in further fees and costs to the City. Fiscal Impact: Approval will result in payment of a $100,000 settlement plus Ms. Matos' severance and accruals. Upon approval, Ms. Matos' position will be eliminated, resulting in savings to the City and the reduction of 1 FTE.

Releasor agrees as follows: In consideration of the payment described above and mutual promises set forth in this Release and except as provided herein, Releasor, on behalf of Releasor, her spouse, issue, heirs, successors, current and former agents, representatives, assigns, executors, beneficiaries, and administrators, hereby releases and forever discharges the Releasees, and its employees, Commissioners, insurers, insureds, successors, privies, assigns, agents, attorneys or representatives, including all current and former members of the foregoing groups (collectively, the “Releasees”), from any and all charges, grievances, complaints, claims, obligations, promises, agreements, controversies, damages, actions, causes of action, suits, rights, demands, and, whether accrued or unaccrued, liabilities, obligations, costs, losses, debts and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and costs actually incurred) of any nature whatsoever, whether in law or in equity, whether known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, which Releasor ever had, has or may claim to have against the Releasees including but not limited to any claims related in any way to Releasor’s employment with or separation from employment with the Releasees, any claims for unpaid wages, back pay, overtime, commissions, bonuses, incentive pay, vacation pay, unpaid leave, legal fees, royalties, severance or other compensation, or any claims arising under any contracts, express or implied, or any tort, including, without limitation, intentional infliction of emotional distress, harassment, discrimination, including any claim under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, retaliation, interference, defamation, fraud and breach of duty, or any legal restrictions on the Releasees’ right to terminate Releasor, and any federal, state or other governmental common law, statute, regulation or ordinance, through the date Releasor signs this Agreement. Notwithstanding this full and complete general release of all claims and damages, nothing herein is intended to waive any rights or claims to vested benefits in any City-sponsored retirement and/or deferred compensation plan. Nor is this release intended to waive Releasor’s insurance coverage and/or payment for medical claims for medical services submitted through the Releasees’ health insurance plans prior to Releasor’s execution of this Agreement or her right to continuation of health insurance coverage as allowed by law or Releasor’s rights to any rights to indemnification under the Releasees’ policies and procedures if anyone pursues a claim against Releasor in her official capacity as an employee, representative or agent of the City. Should any Releasee bring a claim against Releasor, Releasor’s release as to that specific individual is null and void and Employee may pursue any such claims against that individual 327 Page 2 of 3 KM in their individual capacity. In consideration of the promises made by Releasor in this Agreement, the City, and its employees, Commissioners, insurers, insureds, successors, privies, assigns, agents, attorneys or representatives, including all current and former members of the foregoing groups, in their official capacity as to each, (“City Releasors”) knowingly and voluntarily release and forever discharge Releasor of and from any and all claims, known and unknown, anticipated and unanticipated, asserted and unasserted, which City Releasors have or may have against Releasor as of the date of execution of this Agreement, including, but not limited to, any alleged violation of any federal, state or local law, rule, regulation or ordinance; any public policy, contract, tort, or common law; or any basis for recovering costs, fees, or other expenses including attorneys’ fees incurred in this matter. It is understood and agreed that this settlement is the compromise of a doubtful and disputed claim and that the payment made is not to be construed as an admission of liability on the part of the Releasees, and that said Releasees deny liability and, therefore, intend merely to avoid unnecessary and costly litigation. The Releasor and City Releasors freely and voluntarily execute this Release after being apprised of all relevant information and data furnished by their agents, contractors, consultants, and/or attorneys. In executing this Release, the Releasor does not rely on any inducements, promises, or representations made by the Releasees or any of the Releasees’ representatives. Furthermore, no promise, inducement, or agreement not herein set forth has been made to the Releasor, and this Release contains the entire agreement between the parties hereto, and the terms of this Release are contractual and not merely a recital. Further, that the Releasor has or will discharge or indemnify, defend, and save harmless the Releasees from any and every damage claim, right, action, demand, lien, known or unknown, to either party hereto of every kind or character which may ever be asserted by reason of or in relation to the instant claim. Any person who knowingly and with intent to injure, defraud, or deceive any insurer files a statement of claim or an application containing any false, incomplete, or misleading information is guilty of a felony of the third degree, which carries a maximum prison sentence of five years. Such actions may lead to criminal prosecution, the invalidation of this agreement, and the full refund of any and all payments received through this settlement. This Release, the Conditional Settlement Agreement between Employee and Employer, and the Separation Agreement and Release contain the entire understanding and agreement between the Parties and shall not be modified or superseded, except upon express written consent of the Parties to this Agreement. This Release shall become effective on the next business day following the City Commission’s approval of this Conditional Settlement Agreement and the General Release, and the eighth day after Employee signs this agreement, unless Employee revokes it (“Effective Date”). 328 Page 3 of 3 KM RELEASOR HAS READ THE FOREGOING RELEASE AND FULLY UNDERSTANDS IT.

Kathryn Matos (Jun 18, 2024 13:37 EDT)06/18/2024 331 CP Enclosure with EEOC Form 5 (11/09) PRIVACY ACT STATEMENT: Under the Privacy Act of 1974, Pub. Law 93-579, authority to request personal data and its uses are: 1. FORM NUMBER/TITLE/DATE. EEOC Form 5, Charge of Discrimination (11/09). 2. AUTHORITY. 42 U.S.C. 2000e-5(b), 29 U.S.C. 211, 29 U.S.C. 626, 42 U.S.C. 12117, 42 U.S.C. 2000ff-6. 3. PRINCIPAL PURPOSES. The purposes of a charge, taken on this form or otherwise reduced to writing (whether later recorded on this form or not) are, as applicable under the EEOC anti- discrimination statutes (EEOC statutes), to preserve private suit rights under the EEOC statutes, to invoke the EEOC's jurisdiction and, where dual-filing or referral arrangements exist, to begin state or local proceedings. 4. ROUTINE USES. This form is used to provide facts that may establish the existence of matters covered by the EEOC statutes (and as applicable, other federal, state or local laws). Information given will be used by staff to guide its mediation and investigation efforts and, as applicable, to determine, conciliate and litigate claims of unlawful discrimination. This form may be presented to or disclosed to other federal, state or local agencies as appropriate or necessary in carrying out EEOC's functions. A copy of this charge will ordinarily be sent to the respondent organization against which the charge is made. 5. WHETHER DISCLOSURE IS MANDATORY; EFFECT OF NOT GIVING INFORMATION. Charges must be reduced to writing and should identify the charging and responding parties and the actions or policies complained of. Without a written charge, EEOC will ordinarily not act on the complaint. Charges under Title VII, the ADA or GINA must be sworn to or affirmed (either by using this form or by presenting a notarized statement or unsworn declaration under penalty of perjury); charges under the ADEA should ordinarily be signed. Charges may be clarified or amplified later by amendment. It is not mandatory that this form be used to make a charge. NOTICE OF RIGHT TO REQUEST SUBSTANTIAL WEIGHT REVIEW Charges filed at a state or local Fair Employment Practices Agency (FEPA) that dual-files charges with EEOC will ordinarily be handled first by the FEPA. Some charges filed at EEOC may also be first handled by a FEPA under worksharing agreements. You will be told which agency will handle your charge. When the FEPA is the first to handle the charge, it will notify you of its final resolution of the matter. Then, if you wish EEOC to give Substantial Weight Review to the FEPA's final findings, you must ask us in writing to do so within 15 days of your receipt of its findings. Otherwise, we will ordinarily adopt the FEPA's finding and close our file on the charge. NOTICE OF NON-RETALIATION REQUIREMENTS Please notify EEOC or the state or local agency where you filed your charge if retaliation is taken against you or others who oppose discrimination or cooperate in any investigation or lawsuit concerning this charge. Under Section 704(a) of Title VII, Section 4(d) of the ADEA, Section 503(a) of the ADA and Section 207(f) of GINA, it is unlawful for an employer to discriminate against present or former employees or job applicants, for an employment agency to discriminate against anyone, or for a union to discriminate against its members or membership applicants, because they have opposed any practice made unlawful by the statutes, or because they have made a charge, testified, assisted, or participated in any manner in an investigation, proceeding, or hearing under the laws. The Equal Pay Act has similar provisions and Section 503(b) of the ADA prohibits coercion, intimidation, threats or interference with anyone for exercising or enjoying, or aiding or encouraging others in their exercise or enjoyment of, rights under the Act. 332 Kathryn Matos Mutual Separation Agreement Page 1 of 9 SEPARATION AGREEMENT AND RELEASE THIS AGREEMENT is entered into by and between CITY OF BOYNTON BEACH (hereinafter referred to as “Employer”) and KATHRYN MATOS (hereinafter “Employee”) (collectively referred to as the “Parties”). In exchange for the consideration set forth below, Employer and Employee agree to the following: 1. Employer agrees to accept Employee’s resignation of employment. Employer’s personnel records will reflect that Employee resigned in good standing. Because Employee’s resignation is voluntary, she shall not be entitled to unemployment compensation. In that event, Employee must deliver a letter of resignation contemporaneously with this signed Agreement that states: “I hereby resign my employment effective [Separation Date].” No other language may be included in the resignation letter except the date of the letter and the employee’s name below her signature. Employee shall receive all pay and benefits through the Separation Date. Employee’s resignation shall be effective as of the Effective Date (“Separation Date”). If the City Commission does not approve the Conditional Settlement Agreement between the parties, Employee’s resignation shall be null and void and Employee shall be returned to the status quo ante, with no break in service in Employee’s employment record. Further, Employer agrees to remove any disciplinary or investigative documents or allegations of discipline that may have been raised against Employee as of July 15, 2024 from Employee’s personnel file, and placed in a separate Human Resources file marked void. 2. In consideration of the promises and benefits provided by Employee herein, and if Employee executes and does not revoke this Agreement, Employer will make payment of the full premiums for Employee plus family COBRA continuation coverage for Employer’s group health 333 Kathryn Matos Mutual Separation Agreement Page 2 of 9 plan in which Employee was participating on the termination date for a period of twelve (12) weeks, beginning on October 1, 2024, the date the Employee would otherwise lose coverage under such plan(s) as a result of the termination of employment (provided that the participant otherwise remains eligible for COBRA coverage during such period). The subsidy described above will not be paid directly to the Employee but rather to the City of Boynton Beach Group Health Plan. After the twelve (12) week period ends, Employee shall be fully responsible for all COBRA premiums, if Employee continues to require COBRA continuation coverage. 3. In consideration of the payment described above and mutual promises set forth in this Agreement and except as provided herein, Employee, on behalf of Employee, her spouse, issue, heirs, successors, current and former agents, representatives, assigns, executors, beneficiaries, and administrators, hereby releases and forever discharges the Employer, and its employees, Commissioners, insurers, insureds, successors, privies, assigns, agents, attorneys or representatives, including all current and former members of the foregoing groups (collectively, the “Releasees”), from any and all charges, grievances, complaints, claims, obligations, promises, agreements, controversies, damages, actions, causes of action, suits, rights, demands, and, whether accrued or unaccrued, liabilities, obligations, costs, losses, debts and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and costs actually incurred) of any nature whatsoever, whether in law or in equity, whether known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, which Employee ever had, has or may claim to have against the Releasees including but not limited to any claims related in any way to Employee’s employment with or separation from employment with the Employer, EEOC Charge (Charge No. 510-2024-08512), any claims for unpaid wages, back pay, overtime, commissions, bonuses, incentive pay, vacation pay, unpaid leave, legal fees, royalties, severance or other compensation, or any claims arising under any contracts, express or implied, or any tort, including, 334 Kathryn Matos Mutual Separation Agreement Page 3 of 9 without limitation, intentional infliction of emotional distress, harassment, discrimination, including any claim under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, retaliation, interference, defamation, fraud and breach of duty, or any legal restrictions on the Employer’s right to terminate employees, and any federal, state or other governmental common law, statute, regulation or ordinance, through the date Employee signs this Agreement. Notwithstanding this full and complete general release of all claims and damages, nothing herein is intended to waive any rights or claims to vested benefits in any Employer-sponsored retirement and/or deferred compensation plan. Nor is this release intended to waive Employee’s insurance coverage and/or payment for medical claims for medical services submitted through the Employer’s health insurance plans prior to Employee’s execution of this Agreement or her right to continuation of health insurance coverage as allowed by law or Employee’s rights to any rights to indemnification under the City’s policies and procedures if anyone pursues a claim against her in her official capacity as an employee, representative or agent of the City. Should any Releasee bring a claim against Employee, Employee’s release as to that specific individual is null and void and Employee may pursue any such claims against that individual in their individual capacity. In consideration of the promises made by Employee in this Agreement, the Employer, and its employees, Commissioners, insurers, insureds, successors, privies, assigns, agents, attorneys or representatives, including all current and former members of the foregoing groups, in their official capacity as to each, (“Employer Releasors”) knowingly and voluntarily release and forever discharge Employee of and from any and all claims, known and unknown, anticipated and unanticipated, asserted and unasserted, which Employer Releasors have or may have against Employee as of the date of execution of this Agreement, including, but not limited to, any alleged violation of any federal, state or local law, rule, regulation or ordinance; any public policy, 335 Kathryn Matos Mutual Separation Agreement Page 4 of 9 contract, tort, or common law; or any basis for recovering costs, fees, or other expenses including attorneys’ fees incurred in this matter. 4. Employee recognizes and acknowledges that the additional payments made by Employer hereunder are in excess of what Employer normally provides to employees who cease employment with Employer and that, as such, it constitutes additional consideration for the execution of the release set forth above. 5. Employee agrees that, in exchange for the payment and other additional benefits received, Employee will not institute any claims, demands, actions, or liabilities of any kind against Releasees, including, but not limited to, those related to Employee’s employment with Employer, or the separation of that employment, or otherwise. This Agreement covers both claims that Employee knows about and those that Employee may not know about that have accrued by the time of execution of this Agreement. 6. Employee recognizes that as a result of Employee’s employment with Employer, Employee has had access to Confidential Information as defined below, which is a valuable asset of the Employer and which, if disclosed or used without authorization, could cause irreparable harm to the Employer. Therefore, Employee agrees that, except as required by a lawful order of a court of competent jurisdiction or to the extent that Employee has written authorization from Employer, Employee will not, at any time or in any manner whatsoever, either directly or indirectly, reveal, divulge, disclose, or communicate to any person, firm, or corporation, or use for Employee’s benefit or the benefit of others any Confidential Information. For purposes of this Agreement, “Confidential Information” shall include any information that is confidential or exempt under Florida public records law. 336 Kathryn Matos Mutual Separation Agreement Page 5 of 9 7. Employee agrees that all property of the Employer, including, without limitation, all equipment, records, files, plans, documents, software, badges, keys, reports, research, policies, or phones in the Employee’s possession shall be and shall remain the sole property of the Employer and shall be returned to the Employer immediately, but no later than upon execution of this Agreement. Employee agrees that, after Employee separates employment from the Employer, Employee shall not, directly or indirectly, for Employee or any other person or entity, use, access, copy, or retrieve, or attempt to use, access, copy, or retrieve, any of Employer’s electronic equipment or any information on Employer’s electronic equipment. Employer and Employee will make arrangements for Employee to obtain her personal belongings. 8. Employee may be eligible for early retirement under the Employer’s pension plan. Any such early retirement benefits shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable plan documents and are not hereby waived by this Agreement. 9. Employee agrees that Employee will not reapply for employment with Employer and that in the event Employee does, Employer shall have no obligation to consider Employee’s application and, further, that this Agreement shall serve as a legitimate, non-discriminatory, non- retaliatory reason for not considering such application. Further, Employee also represents that Employee has not suffered any workplace injury that has not already been reported. 10. If contacted by a prospective or new employer of Employee, Employer will only confirm dates of employment, positions held, date of separation and that Employee left in good standing, and will provide no negative information. In response to press inquiries, Employer agrees to state Employee left in good standing and that she left to pursue other opportunities and will provide no negative information regarding her (except as may be required to comply with the 337 Kathryn Matos Mutual Separation Agreement Page 6 of 9 public records law or in any legal or administrative proceedings, including, but not limited to EEOC, OIG, and/or Commission on Ethics). 11. The Parties agree not to disparage one another. For purposes of this section, disparaging statements are those that are defamatory and maliciously untrue, such that they are made with knowledge of their falsity or with reckless disregard for their truth or falsity. Employee shall not take any action or make any disparaging comments about matters regarding Employee’s employment, or the Employer, its present, former, and future board members, employees, agents, legal representatives, attorneys, successors, and assigns, or its business operations, practices, or services, except as required by law or pursuant to lawful subpoena. Employer shall not take any action or make any disparaging comments about matters regarding Employee’s employment, or Employee, except as required by law or pursuant to lawful subpoena. However, it is not a violation of this Agreement for Employee to make statements about or concerning the City of Boynton Beach as a private individual on matters of public concern. 12. In addition to all other consideration set forth herein, the parties acknowledge that Employee will receive all disbursements of vacation leave, sick leave, and severance pay described in the termination without cause by unilateral action of the City Manager section of Employee’s Employment Letter, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit A. The payout of Employee’s vacation, sick leave and severance pay shall be paid pursuant to payroll with lawful deductions and direct deposited within 15 calendar days of the Effective Date. Employer agrees to provide Employee with a paystub or accounting of deductions contemporaneously with this payment. 13. If any provision of the Agreement is invalidated by a court or agency of competent jurisdiction, then all of the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall continue unabated and in full force and effect. This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Florida. Venue 338 Kathryn Matos Mutual Separation Agreement Page 7 of 9 in any action to enforce this Agreement shall lie in the State Courts situated exclusively in Palm Beach County, Florida, and any proceeding instituted under this Agreement shall be tried before a judge without a jury. In the event an action is instituted relating to or arising from this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, including an award of reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs through all appeals. 14. Employee acknowledges and agrees that pursuant to the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act, Employee has been given at least twenty-one (21) days to review and consider this Agreement. Employee may use as much of this twenty-one (21) day period as Employee wishes prior to signing this Agreement. Should Employee wish to waive this twenty-one (21) day review period, Employee may do so by initialing here: ________ or by signing and dating this Agreement in the signature block provided below. Employee and Employer agree that any material or non- material changes that may be made in this Agreement after the Agreement is initially provided to Employee shall not restart the running of this twenty-one (21) day period. Employee understands that Employee may sign this Agreement prior to the end of the twenty-one (21) day period. If Employee does so, Employee agrees that her signature was done knowingly and voluntarily, without any improper inducement by Employer. a. Employee also acknowledges and agrees that Employee has seven (7) days from the date Employee executes this Agreement within which to rescind this Agreement by providing notice in writing and delivered via hand delivery or certified mail, return receipt requested, to Shawna G. Lamb, City Attorney, 100 East Ocean Avenue, Boynton Beach, FL 33435. Employee further acknowledges that this Agreement and the release contained herein satisfy all the requirements for an effective release by Employee of all claims under the Age Discrimination in 339 Kathryn Matos Mutual Separation Agreement Page 8 of 9 Employment Act. Additionally, the Parties agree that the severance payment identified above shall not be made until the seven (7) day revocation period has expired. b. Employee further acknowledges that Employee has been advised to consult with an attorney concerning this waiver and that Employee has been given ample opportunity to do so. 15. This Agreement, the Conditional Settlement Agreement between Employee and Employer, and the General Release contain the entire understanding and agreement between the Parties and shall not be modified or superseded, except upon express written consent of the Parties to this Agreement; provided, however, Employee agrees to continue to be bound by any restrictive covenants contained in any contracts or agreements that would otherwise bind the Employee after the termination of employment with Employer. 16. The Parties may execute this Agreement in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be one and the same original and shall be binding on all of the Parties. An electronic signature shall be deemed an original signature. 17. Employee will be responsible for providing express written notice of any change in address to Employer. 18. This Agreement shall become effective on the next business day following the City Commission's approval of this Conditional Settlement Agreement and the General Release, and on the eighth day after Employee signs this Agreement, unless Employee revokes it ("Effective Date"). 19. Employee certifies that, during Employee’s review and execution of this Agreement, Employee is of sound mind and body and legally capable of entering into contracts. Employee acknowledges that Employee has entered into this Agreement of her own free will and that Employee’s signature was not procured by coercion, fraud, or intimidation. 340 Kathryn Matos Mutual Separation Agreement Page 9 of 9 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties have caused this Agreement to be executed by their duly authorized agents in accordance with all of the formalities required by law on the day and year respectively set forth below.

She explained that she would not like to move forward with this because it contradicts the changes to the charter. She read Section 10 of the charter for the record. City Manager Dugger said that he has enough to sign on a daily basis, and this is something that was brought up while he was away. He said that they are looking for a 376 City Commission Meeting Minutes Boynton Beach, FL August 20, 2024 single point of contingency, an alternative, if the Mayor cannot sign off on something. He stated that they can make it the Vice Mayor, and there will be more discussion at second reading.

She said that this is why they brought a City Attorney in-house, to find these discrepancies, and fix it. She stated that this is not a charter amendment, this is simply an ordinance. She noted that the Charters’ Section 10 primarily concerns deeds, bonds, and situations where the City is a party, and that specific section outlines that the Mayor has to sign those documents. She stated that although she appreciates the City Manager suggesting he forego signing, the City Commission is only here part-time, and she wants to make sure that they are being good stewards for the community. She emphasized that she does not like to see the City be less efficient. She stated that most of these do not have monetary involvement, and she does not want to touch anything that has to do with HR documents. Attorney Lamb clarified that this was not brought about because the Mayor was not here or available to sign things. She said that this is basic day to day items that need to be done and have no expenditures or would create a liability for the City. She mentioned that they do not know who the future Mayor might be, and it might be harder to sign off on documents. She commented that we need clear lines on who can do what. Commissioner Turkin asked for clarification if what is necessary for us to go to referendum. Attorney Weinger stated their opinion, as the Attorneys, including Article 10, is that they do not see this as a charter conflict, or anything that has to go to referendum. Commissioner Cruz read Section 10 of the charter. She said that it is relevant in this conversation. Attorney Lamb spoke about their legal opinion, and said she does not believe this violates the charter. She mentioned that reading that section as a blanket, there would be many ordinances that would come back and need to be repealed. There was further discussion regarding what the charter allows and does not allow. Attorney Lamb recommended tabling the item. She said that she could have someone come into the workshop that specializes in this and to further discuss. She stated that the workshop would be open to the public but there would be no public comment.

E.Proposed Resolution No. R24-192-Adopting the final fire assessment fee for fiscal year 2024-2025. Chief Hugh Bruder stated that he had reviewed the presentation in July. He discussed continued efforts to educate residents about the Fire Assessment and noted that the information was available on the City's website, including the PowerPoint presentation. Mayor Penserga requested a short recess at 8:14 P.M. The City Commission reconvened at 8:22 P.M. Chief Bruder presented on the following: the need for a Fire Assessment; projected capital improvements using the proposed fire assessment increase; the proposed $25 increase; Fire Assessment Fee comparison by municipality, municipal service taxable items; and funding additional resources through mutual aid during training. Commissioner Hay commented that West Palm Beach, the largest City in Palm Beach County, has the lowest fire assessment rate. Chief Bruder responded that West Palm Beach's millage rate is 9%. Commissioner Cruz stated that after speaking with residents, there was confusion regarding the proposed increase, with some believing it would be an additional $145 on top of the current $120 assessment. She also mentioned that residents were asking what previous Fire Assessment revenue had been used for. Chief Bruder explained that the original concept behind the Fire Assessment was to eventually sunset it, but he emphasized that it should be a permanent fee, as it cannot simply go away. He provided details on what the current fee is used for, according to statutory requirements, and mentioned that the additional $25 would cover future projects. Commissioner Cruz sought to clarify the proposed $25 increase and suggested a smaller $20 increase instead, given that there had not been an increase in many years. Chief Bruder emphasized that they are asking for what is needed, not more. Mayor Penserga asked a resident to leave due to interruptions. City Attorney Lamb stated that the resident could be allowed back during the public comment period if desired. Mayor Penserga remarked that there had been multiple interruptions throughout the night, 388 City Commission Meeting Boynton Beach, FL September 3, 2024 and order needed to be maintained. Chief Bruder continued, stating that while there are projects that need to be completed, they will have to be covered at some point. He said it was up to the Board to make a decision. Commissioner Turkin stated that he wanted to make his position clear. He mentioned that he had heard from his constituents, who do not support the increase, and he would not go against their wishes. Mayor Penserga opened public comments. David Merker expressed that it was common sense to vote in favor of the increase, as the safety of the people was more important than a small amount of money. Debbie Matchia mentioned that volunteer Firefighters often engage in fundraising to purchase expensive equipment. She suggested asking for donations to cover the extra funds being requested. Christy Bellmont shared that she is on a fixed budget and supported the idea of fundraising to meet the City's needs. She commented that residents do not have the same wealth as those living in other parts of Palm Beach County. Cindy Falco De Corrado discussed the Coast Guard’s responsibility for water safety. She added that she had only seen special fire vehicles during City events and expressed that residents should not have to pay for what she referred to as "extra toys" for the Fire Station. Susan Oyer stated that she supports the proposal, but has some questions. She asked if the Harvey Oyer building is where the internal affairs department is located or if it is housed elsewhere. She pointed out that various buildings are being used for other purposes, such as children’s art classes, and inquired about the location of the Firefighter equipment for water rescues. She also mentioned that a fire assessment waiver is available for those unable to pay. Schneider expressed concern that many people are unable to afford additional expenses and urged the Board to be mindful of those struggling financially. Trinetta echoed Mr. Schneider’s concerns, noting that while the assessments may seem small, every little bit adds up. She emphasized that many are still recovering from the effects of COVID-19 and are doing their best to make ends meet. There were no virtual comments. Mayor Penserga closed public comments. Vice Mayor Kelley reminded everyone that there is an exemption form available for those who cannot pay the fee, and it is accessible on the City’s website. She explained that the exemption renews annually and can be reevaluated each year. She also mentioned that Fire Station 3 is located in District 4, and its residents and firefighters deserve a new 389 City Commission Meeting Boynton Beach, FL September 3, 2024 station instead of constant temporary fixes. Commissioner Cruz shared that she is conflicted because many residents have expressed opposition to the increase, but she also understands and supports the need for a new Fire Station. She reiterated that she would support no more than a $20 increase and suggested that staff should attend meetings to help residents apply for the waiver, if possible. Commissioner Hay highlighted that safety has always been a top priority and stressed the importance of timely responses to fires, noting that every second counts. He stated that reducing response times by even one minute is worth the $2 per month increase. He added that many of his constituents believe the return on this investment is well worth it, and he supports the $25 assessment due to its clear benefits. Mayor Penserga stated that he will never compromise on safety. He reiterated that exemption forms are available for those unable to pay. He expressed discomfort with the fact that Firefighters are staying in a dilapidated firehouse and emphasized that ensuring the City’s fire services are up to standard is crucial, especially in emergencies. Motion: Commissioner Hay moved to approve Resolution No. R24-192. Vice Mayor Kelley seconded the motion. The motion passed 3-2, with Commissioner Turkin and Commissioner Cruz dissenting. 3.Announcements, Community and Special Events and Presentations Item 3A was heard following item 2A.

(Tabled from August 20, 2024). City Clerk De Jesús read the Ordinance into the record. City Attorney Lamb mentioned that Ms. Ryan was present. She confirmed that there were no changes. Commissioner Turkin asked if this allows the Mayor or anyone else to bypass the bidding process. City Attorney Lamb clarified the procurement code, stating that no one can make changes to City-owned property without City Commission approval. She further explained that none of the items in question involve monetary funds and discussed the maximum expenditure allowed without needing to go to the City Commission. Commissioner Turkin then inquired about an emergency grant. City Attorney Lamb mentioned that she was able to get the document signed. She discussed the grant process and clarified that this policy determines what the Manager can sign. Commissioner Turkin emphasized the importance of operational efficiency, stating that he does not mind who signs, as long as grant funding opportunities are not missed. Mayor Penserga expressed support for e-signatures but noted that this was his first time hearing about the emergency grant, and he had not been notified. City Attorney Lamb stated that everything now goes through her office, streamlining the process and improving efficiency. 394 City Commission Meeting Boynton Beach, FL September 3, 2024 Mayor Penserga requested to be notified when documents requiring his signature come through and reiterated that any renegotiated contracts must return to the City Commission. Commissioner Cruz mentioned that she had heard complaints about documents not being signed but stressed that it is not fair to blame someone for not being present. She suggested sending an email if something needs to be signed, and in the worst-case scenario, the Vice Mayor could sign. Commissioner Turkin reiterated the need to create a mechanism for signatures when someone is unavailable, emphasizing that city business should not be halted and calling for a balanced approach. Mayor Penserga acknowledged that some documents are time-sensitive but pointed out that others are not. He stated that agreements should be completed in advance, and there should be clarification on who signs, but it should not be limited to when the Mayor is unavailable. City Attorney Lamb clarified that the discussion is not about time-sensitive documents but rather establishing parameters on what the City Manager can and cannot sign. Mayor Penserga agreed with the clarification. Commissioner Hay stated that while they all signed documents, the current discussion is unnecessary. He suggested that if the Mayor is unavailable, other members of the City Commission should be able to sign. Commissioner Cruz raised a concern about a biased comment made earlier. She asked if an RFP under $50K for Harvey Oyer Park would fall within the City Manager’s signing authority. She emphasized that she was presenting facts, not opinions, and referenced the importance of checks and balances. Commissioner Turkin clarified that his comment was unrelated to hers. Commissioner Hay added that if an item exceeds a monetary threshold, it must return to the City Commission for approval. City Attorney Lamb clarified that the procurement policy allows the City Manager to sign off on amounts under a certain threshold. Commissioner Hay mentioned the importance of checks and balances. 395 City Commission Meeting Boynton Beach, FL September 3, 2024 Mayor Penserga commented that the only item under Human Resources is something beyond their control. Vice Mayor Kelley stated that there are items the City Commission do not need to review, such as an Adopt-a-Road application. She suggested that if there are specific items they do not want the City Manager to sign, they should highlight them. She explained that the recommendations were for routine, everyday items that do not cost the City any money and that the City Manager should have the authority to sign these. Vice Mayor Kelley added that if the procurement process were to be questioned, it would come back to the City Commission. If the procurement code needs amending, they could address that, but these items are typical daily matters. City Manager Dugger mentioned receiving legal advice from three separate Attorneys. Mayor Penserga clarified his stance on his availability. Commissioner Cruz reflected on the past 100 years and mentioned the advice of Attorneys. She suggested that the Attorney General's opinion would be the most reliable and that she could request one. Commissioner Cruz expressed concerns about procurement and commented on changing current practices. Mayor Penserga stated that there was room for compromise. City Attorney Lamb added that there would be separate ordinances, and certain items would be struck from the list. Motion: Vice Mayor Kelley moved to approve Proposed Ordinance No. 24-012. Commissioner Turkin seconded the motion. The motion failed 2-3, with Mayor Penserga, Commissioner Hay and Commissioner Cruz dissenting. Discussion continued regarding the changes they wanted to see.

City Clerk De Jesús read the Ordinance into the record. Candice Stone, Community Standards Director, presented the purpose of the ordinance amendment and provided updates on key highlights. Commissioner Hay asked about roofs. Ms. Stone explained how they measure roof discoloration. Commissioner Turkin spoke about the intent behind the ordinance and expressed disagreement with the proposed changes to grass height, preferring to keep it as it currently is. He agreed that measuring roof discoloration can be challenging. Ms. Stone mentioned that many complaints they receive relate to abandoned properties, and some of the concerns included in the ordinance stem from those complaints. Commissioner Turkin reiterated his preference for maintaining the grass height limit at 8 inches. City Attorney Lamb suggested a compromise, proposing that the grass height should not exceed 6 inches within two weeks. Commissioner Turkin agreed with this suggestion. Commissioner Hay inquired about carport storage regulations. Ms. Stone explained that they typically issue citations when people have excessive junk in a carport and park their cars outside of it.

City Clerk De Jesús read the Ordinance into the record. Dr. Kalkat introduced the ordinance and explained that they are proposing to change it from an ordinance to a resolution, as it would be easier to make adjustments in the future. She mentioned the annual CPI rate and the process of returning to the City Commission for approval. Mayor Penserga commented that there is no need to argue about rates increasing with the CPI. Commissioner Cruz clarified that the change involves approving the matter by Resolution rather than Ordinance. Motion: Vice Mayor Kelley moved to approve Proposed Ordinance No. 24-019. Commissioner Hay seconded the motion. The motion passed 4-1, with Commissioner Cruz dissenting.

Ms. Irwin explained that the goal was 3,000 trees per year, and mentioned a goal of 3,600 since 2020, noting that they were currently below expectations in certain areas.

She mentioned a robust program in another City and highlighted the essay contest and activities for students. She estimated that the cost per attendee would be approximately $1,700, including the need for chaperones. Commissioner Hay expressed that it has been a priority of his to see local youth participating in the NLC conference alongside other municipalities. He emphasized that it is an excellent opportunity for the City to invest in its youth and requested that the topic be revisited. Mayor Penserga voiced his support for the initiative. Ms. Walls reiterated that the estimated cost per person is $1,700 and mentioned available scholarship opportunities. Vice Mayor Kelley shared that she spoke with a municipality that runs a similar program and had the chance to interact with the students, noting the benefits of such programs.

H.Update on funds from the settlement with Town Square. Mr. Kajokas discussed the funds received from a settlement and explained where they had been deposited. Mayor Penserga asked if the funds had been spent or if they were still available. City Attorney Lamb clarified that all the litigation funds had been fully spent. She mentioned that they are still in the early stages of litigation, and additional fees would need to come from her budget, which was not originally planned for. She recommended finding a more economical option moving forward. City Manager Dugger added that other funds had not yet been spent and were awaiting a decision from the City Commission. I.Discussion regarding infrastructure, specifically paving in the City. Kevin Ramsey, Public Works Director, spoke about the following: planning tool-arcgis-15- year road restoration platform; road resurfacing and neighborhood project priorities (no utility conflicts); and road resurfacing and neighborhood project priorities (with utility conflicts). He also addressed an email received from a resident. Commissioner Hay asked if the proposed changes would negatively affect scheduling south of MLK. Deputy City Manager Mack explained that the current discussion was part of their "wish list" and that the items in question were already scheduled to happen. Commissioner Turkin thanked Mr. Mack for the update and suggested that ARPA (American Rescue Plan Act) funds should be used for road paving. City Manager Dugger discussed the use of revenue funds, emphasizing that they must be spent within a certain timeframe. He also talked about maintaining a healthy fund balance and identifying which funds could be used for specific projects. Commissioner Hay requested clarification on the ARPA funds.

Requested Action: Staff recommends approval of Proposed Resolution No. R24-219. Explanation of Request: The Communications Center was last updated in 2012 and currently has five radio consoles. While technology continues to evolve, the communications center requires updating to maintain 24/7 services to the City's fire department, police department, and the community we serve. Upgrade of the communications center will allow for two additional radio consoles and the replacement of ten workstations. Additionally, this will allow for future expansion within our communications center as our city continues to see positive growth. The Boynton Beach City Commission approved phase one of this project on July 16, 2024. Palm Beach County has agreed to provide 100% reimbursement for the second phase of the project which will allow for full completion of the renovations. How will this affect city programs or services? Upgrading the communications center will help leverage modern 911 technology and facilitate rapid and accurate call-taking and dispatching of emergency calls for service. This will enhance public safety services for the City's residents and visitors. Fiscal Impact: Palm Beach County has agreed to provide 100% reimbursement for the project therefore there will be no fiscal impact.

The City Commission will conduct these public hearings in its dual capacity as Local Planning Agency and City Commission. 09/23/2024 Meeting Date: 09/23/2024 Proposed Resolution No. R24-224- Ratifying Resolution No. R24-192 adopted on September 3rd, 2024 for the Fire Assessment Fee of $145 for fiscal year 2024-2025. Requested Action: Staff recommends the approval of Proposed Resolution No. R24-224. Explanation of Request: On July 11, 2024, the City Commission adopted Resolution No. R24-149 to continue the Fire Assessment Program for FY 2024-2025. On September 3, 2024, the City Commission adopted Resolution No. R24-192 to set the Fire Assessment rate at $145 (annually per dwelling unit) for residential property owners. The City Commission recognizes that the Assessment may create a hardship on certain residential property owners in the City. Therefore, the Final Rate Resolution allows property owners to request H.E.L.P. (Hardship Extension Loan Program) for a total or partial waiver through an application review process. A copy of the application and criteria is attached. Notice of the Hardship Extension Loan Program (H.E.L.P.) will also be available on the City's website. All property owners in the City received actual mailed notice of the proposed Assessment and the September 3rd public hearing; however, notice of the hearing was published late. To ensure that all members of the public receive adequate notice and an opportunity to be heard, the City is conducting an additional public hearing related to the adoption of the Assessment. This resolution ratifies the FY 24-25 Fire Assessment, Resolution 24-192, adopted at the September 3, 2024, City Commission meeting. How will this affect city programs or services? The Fire Assessment provides partial funding to the total Fire Department in order to maintain its excellent response time and capital improvement needs. It does not provide funding for EMS services. Only Fire Rescue services are allowed under Florida Statutes. Fiscal Impact: For Fiscal Year 2024-25, the estimated gross Fire Rescue Assessed cost is $10,162,248 reduced to a net realized assessment of $8,840,118 after excluding tax exempt properties. 861 Attachments: R24-224 Agenda_Item_2118-2023_Fire_Assessment_Resolution_Ratification.docx R24-192.pdf Fire Assessment Hardship Application 2024-2025.doc Proof of Publication.pdf Affidavit of Mailing.pdf 2024 DR408 Certificate for Non-Ad Valorem Assessment Roll.pdf 862 RESOLUTION NO.

In accordance with the Assessment Ordinance and Chapter 92-264, Laws of Florida, as amended by Chapter 2003-348, Laws of Florida (collectively, the "Special Act"), Mr. Davidson timely provided all necessary information for notification of the Fire Rescue Assessment to the Property Appraiser of Palm Beach County to be included as part of the notice of proposed property taxes under section 200.069, Florida Statutes, the truth-in-millage notification. The information provided to the Property Appraiser to be included on the truth-in-millage notification included the following: the Fire Rescue Assessment rate expressed in dollars and cents per billing unit, the associated Fire Rescue Assessment amount, and the purpose of the Fire Rescue Assessment. 3. Because the assessment was being levied against newly affected property owners for the first time for Fiscal Year 2024-25, additional notice by first class mail to the Owner of each newly affected parcel of Assessed Property was also required by the Assessment Ordinance and the Special Act. 875 4. Sandi Neubarth is the Director for Anser Advisory Consulting LLC, formerly known as Government Services Group, Inc. ("Anser"). Anser has caused the additional mailed notices required by Section 2.05 of the Assessment Ordinance to be prepared in conformance with the Preliminary Rate Resolution. An exemplary form of such notice is attached hereto. Anser has caused such individual notices for each affected property owner to be prepared and each notice included the following information: the purpose of the assessment; the total amount proposed to be levied against each parcel; the unit of measurement to be applied against each parcel to determine the assessment; the number of such units contained within each parcel; the total revenue the City expects to collect by the assessment; a statement that failure to pay the assessment will cause a tax certificate to be issued against the property which may result in a loss of title; a statement that all affected property owners have a right to appear at the hearing and to file written objections with the local governing board within 20 days of the notice; and the date, time, and place of the hearing. 5.

Ryan, Esq. CC: Shawna Lamb, City Attorney Re: Authority to Execute Documents on Behalf of the City Date: August 29, 2024 Background The Boynton Beach City Commission (“Commission”) was recently asked to consider an ordinance, defining in specific terms the types of documents the City Manager has authority to execute on behalf of the City. The discussion of the proposed ordinance raised questions about not only the City Manager’s authority but also the Mayor’s authority to execute documents on behalf of the City and how far that authority goes. After a robust discussion, the City Commission deferred voting on the ordinance, seeking more information. Issues I. Whether the City Charter requires the Mayor to execute all contracts and other legal instruments on behalf of the City? II. Whether the Commission has the authority to designate persons other than the Mayor with the power to execute agreements on behalf of the City? Short Answer I. No. The Charter does not require the Mayor to execute all contracts entered into on behalf of the City. The Charter authorizes but does not mandate that the Commission designate the Mayor to execute the documents. II. Yes. Section 7 of the Charter gives the Commission the authority to designate the City Manager or other department directors the power to execute contracts on behalf of the City, so long as that authorization is given through ordinances, resolutions, and policies approved by the Commission. Analysis I. Whether the City Charter requires the Mayor to execute all contracts and other legal instruments on behalf of the City? A municipal charter is the paramount law of a municipality, just as the state constitution is the charter for the state. Fla. Atty General Opinion 2002-7 (2002). Likewise, a local ordinance is like a Florida Statute 5944 Coral Ridge Drive, PM #201 Coral Springs, FL 33076 Office: 954-254-8054 1645 Palm Beach Lakes Blvd., Suite 200 West Palm Beach, FL 33401 Office: 561-207-2119 Ottinot Law P.A. 903 2 and “municipal ordinances are subject to the same rules of construction as are state statutes.” ABA Interior Inc. Owen Group Corp., 338 So.3d 264 (Fla. 4th DCA 2022). The relevant sections of the City Charter are as follows. Sec. 7. Authority to contract; execution; attestation and seal. The Commission shall have the power to enter into contracts on behalf of the City. All contracts shall be attested by the City Clerk with the seal of the City affixed thereto. Sec. 10. Duties, powers, privileges of Mayor. The Mayor shall preside at all meetings of the City Commission and perform such other duties consistent with his or her office as may be imposed by the City Commission, and he or she shall have a voice and a vote in the proceedings of the City Commission, but no veto power. He or she may use the title of Mayor when executing legal instruments of writing or when required by necessity, arising from the General Laws of the State, but this shall not be considered as conferring upon him or her the administrative or judicial functions of a Mayor under the General Laws of the State. He or she shall be considered as the official head of the City for ceremonial purposes, and shall be so recognized by the courts for the purpose of serving civil processes, and by the Government in the exercise of military law. In the absence or disqualification of the Mayor, the other members of the City Commission shall select one of their members to perform his or her duties. This selection shall be made in accordance with the provisions of this Charter with respect to the election of a Mayor. The Mayor shall sign all deeds, bonds or other instruments of writing to which the City is a party, when authorized so to do by the City Commission. (emphasis added). Generally, a constitutional provision should be “construed as a whole in order to ascertain the general purpose and meaning of each part; each subsection, sentence, and clause must be read in light of the others to form a congruous whole so as not to render any language superfluous.” Everglades Law Center, Inc. v. South Florida Water Management District, 290 So.3d 123 (Fla. 4th DCA 2019), citing Department of Envtl. Prot. v. Millender, 666 So. 2d 882, 886 (Fla. 1996). Likewise, constitutional and statutory provisions must be read in pari materia in a way to harmonize the provisions of each. Id. The same reasoning should be applied when construing charter or ordinance provisions. As such, sections 7 and 10 of the Charter should be read together, and each part given its due. Section 7 does not mention the Mayor and gives all power to enter into contracts to the Commission as a body. That language was reinforced when section 7 was readopted by referendum in 2013 with minor revisions. Section 10 ascribes to the Mayor the responsibility of signing documents of the City when authorized to do so by the Commission. The use of “shall” in the sentence requires the Mayor to sign certain documents,1 when authorized to do so by the Commission, even when the Mayor may personally disagree with the 1 It is interesting that the language in section 7 speaks of contracts, while the language in section 10 speaks of deeds, bonds or other instruments. It may have been intentional to use different words in an effort to convey a different meaning, but I did not find any information which would suggest that the writer was not using the terms “contracts,” and “other instruments” interchangeably. 904 3 directive of the Commission. At the same time, interpreting the section to mean that only the Mayor has the power to execute documents on behalf of the City would seem to run counter to the mandate of section 7 which confers to the Commission the general power to enter into contracts. Nevertheless, if the Commission wishes to grant the Mayor the power to sign all documents, it can do so by passing an ordinance giving that authorization because that is within the power of the Commission. Such a directive would be consistent with and in compliance with section 7 of the Charter. II. Whether the City Commission has the authority to designate persons other than the Mayor with the power to execute agreements on behalf of the City? Because section 7 of the Charter clearly states the “Commission shall have the power to enter into contracts on behalf of the City” and only adds the City Clerk as being the person to attest those contracts, it is this writer’s interpretation that the Commission can authorize anyone to execute a contract on its behalf so long as the City Clerk attests the same. This interpretation is consistent with directives found in the City’s code of ordinances. There are several instances in the code of ordinances where the Commission has given authority to the City Manager and other directors to execute agreements on behalf of the City. Below are a few of the instances. Article V. Deferred Compensation Plan for Unclassified Personnel • Sec. 18-196. Agreements with employees authorized. The city commission hereby authorized the city manager to execute all joinder agreements with said employees and other eligible officials and officers which are necessary for said person's participation in the plan. (Ord. No. 79-19, Art. I, § B, 12-5-79) Article IX. Early Retirement Incentive Program • Sec. 18-229. Execution of agreements. The City Commission authorizes the City Manager and City Clerk to execute Agreements for Participation in Early Retirement Incentive Program and Waiver of Rights forms with eligible employees. A copy of the Agreement for Participation is attached to Ordinance No. 00-66 as Exhibit "B." (Ord. No. 00-66, § 8, 11-21-00; Ord. No. 03-058, § 8, 11-5-03) Article I. In General • Sec. 26-8.2 Water Service/Annexation Agreements. The City Manager or Utilities Director is authorized to execute individual Owner Water Service/Annexation Agreements. The Release of a Water Service/Annexation Agreement requires City Commission approval. 905 4 (Ord. No. 17-006, § 2, 2-21-17) Article VIII. Reclaimed Water • Sec. 26-508. Fees, rates and charges. (a) Charges for reclaimed water use will be based on metered flows and will be billed on a monthly basis per one thousand (1,000) gallons in accordance with the approved rate schedule. (b) The monthly rates and charges for water and wastewater shall be reviewed annually by the Utilities Management and the rates set by the Commission during the annual budget setting process. Such rates shall become effective on October 1 of each year. (c) Meter installation charges and deposits, when applicable, shall be as listed in Chapter 26, Article 1 of the City Code of Ordinances. (d) The City Manager or Utilities Director is authorized to execute Large Reclaimed Water Service Agreements. (Ord. No. 09-022, § 2, 5-5-09; Ord. No. 18-020, § 3, 9-20-18; Ord. No. 19-008, § 2, 2-5- 19) In addition, the City Manager has been given authority to execute agreements and construction documents under the City’s Procurement Policy (adopted by the City Commission) up to a threshold amount. Based on the provisions found in various ordinances and policies, it is clear that the Commission intended to give, and did in fact give, the City Manager and other directors authority to execute documents on behalf of the City. The authority to do so was derived from the City’s Charter giving the City Commission power to enter into contracts. Nevertheless, staff is suggesting that the City Manager may not have been given explicit, written Commission authority to execute all contracts that have been executed over the years by city managers or other department directors. Staff seeks to remedy this by suggesting an ordinance that lays out in detail the types of contracts and other instruments the City Manager may execute. If it is not codified in the ordinance, then authorization to execute a contract would have to be specifically granted by the Commission in a resolution. Of course, the decision to codify such an ordinance is within the discretion of the Commission. Conclusion The City Charter authorizes but does not mandate that the Commission designate the Mayor to execute all documents (contracts, deeds, bonds or legal instruments) of the City, but when it does authorize the Mayor to do so, he or she shall execute. Moreover, per the Charter, the Commission may authorize someone other than the Mayor to execute documents, and the Commission has, in practice, authorized the City Manager and department directors alike through ordinances, policies and resolutions. Likewise, if the Commission wishes to designate that only the Mayor may sign all documents, it has the authority to make the decision, which would then necessitate changes in the code of ordinances and other policies. 906 City of Boynton Beach Agenda Item Request Form 8.D Public Hearing 6 P.M. or as soon thereafter as the agenda permits. The City Commission will conduct these public hearings in its dual capacity as Local Planning Agency and City Commission. 09/23/2024 Meeting Date: 09/23/2024 Proposed Ordinance No. 24-017- Second Reading- An Ordinance of the City Commission of the City of Boynton Beach, Florida, amending the City of Boynton Beach's Code of Ordinances; Chapter 15 "Offenses- Miscellaneous*," Article IX "Community Appearance and Maintenance," Section 15-120 "Minimum Standards for Appearance and Maintenance of Public Property and Private Property;" providing for conflicts, severability, codification; and providing for an effective date. Requested Action: Staff recommends approval of Proposed Ordinance No. 24-017, on second reading. Explanation of Request: The Commission requested that requirements for tree trimming near overhead power lines be added to the City Code, giving the City the authority to regulate tree maintenance near overhead power lines of single-family and duplex properties. This is the main reason for updating this section of the Ordinance. Trees and other vegetation coming into contact with overhead power lines is the primary cause of outages and flickers, according to FPL. Sparking and other dangerous tree situations can also result from trees and other vegetation touching powerlines. Additionally, staff decided to update several other sections of this Ordinance in addition to introducing this new regulation. The updates will clarify certain sections and raise property maintenance standards to help maintain or increase property values by ensuring neighborhoods remain well-kept and safe. How will this affect city programs or services? This will not affect City programs or services.

The City Commission will conduct these public hearings in its dual capacity as Local Planning Agency and City Commission. 09/23/2024 Meeting Date: 09/23/2024 Proposed Ordinance No. 24-019- Second Reading - An Ordinance of the City Commission of the City of Boynton Beach, Florida, amending Part II of the Code of Ordinances, Chapter 26, "Water, Sewer, and City Utilities" to provide that all water, sewer, and City Utility fees, rates, and charges shall be set by the City Commission by resolution and authorizing an annual CPI adjustment, providing for conflicts, severability, codification, and an effective date. Requested Action: Staff recommends approval of Proposed Ordinance No. 24-019, on second reading. Explanation of Request: Currently, the City's fees are codified within the Code of Ordinances. This structure makes it challenging to adjust fees in response to changing economic conditions and service costs. By removing fees from the Code of Ordinances and adopting them by resolution, we can create a more flexible and responsive fee structure. The proposed changes will: Streamline the fee adjustment process, allowing for more timely updates. Implement an automatic annual CPI increase to maintain the real value of fees over time. Improve transparency by consolidating all fees into a single, easily accessible resolution. Staff recommends approval of the proposed ordinance to enhance the City's fee management system and ensure fees remain aligned with economic realities. How will this affect city programs or services? This will allow transparency, better efficiency and oversight for rate and fee schedule implementation. Fiscal Impact: 916 The immediate fiscal impact is expected to be neutral. However, the automatic CPI adjustment will help maintain the real value of fees over time, potentially increasing revenue in line with inflation.

Walkways are provided throughout the park and are directly connected to the existing sidewalk along Seacrest Boulevard and Northwest 17th Avenue. Parking: Additional parking is not required with the proposed airnasium as indicated on the attached Site Plan (Exhibit C). A total of 90 existing parking spaces are located on site. Building and Site: The site area totals 23.82-acres. The proposed airnasium is a pre-engineered steel structure, totaling approximately 17,500 square feet. The structure will cover over the existing basketball courts located in the southeast corner of the park near Seacrest Boulevard and Northwest 17th Avenue. The airnasium will be painted to match the community center building. As noted previously, parking is accommodated on site utilizing the existing surface parking lot, which is located to the west of the basketball courts and can be accessed via the ingress/egress point at Seacrest Boulevard. Additional parking is located on the north side of the park near the Ezell Hester Jr. Community Center Building and the Ezell Hester Jr. Athletic Field. Setbacks: The REC zoning district requires a front building setback of 25 feet, a rear setback of 25 feet, an interior side setback of 25 feet, and a corner side setback of 25 feet. The proposed building complies with all required setbacks. The setbacks for the proposed airnasium are as follows (Exhibit C): Building Setbacks Required Provided Front (Seacrest Blvd) 25’ 25’-6” Interior Side (north) 25’ 400’ Corner Side (south – NW 17th Ave) 25’ 185’ Rear (abutting I-95) 25’ 991’ Lighting: The Photometric Plan (Sheet PH-1.00) depicts light fixtures mounted underneath the airnasium that will provide adequate illumination levels for the basketball courts. These proposed light fixtures will allow for enhanced natural surveillance of the open-air structure to help mitigate security concerns. The lighting is designed to prevent spillage onto abutting properties in accordance, which is in compliance with the LDRs. 956 Hester Park Airnasium – Major Site Plan Modification (2024.06.52187) Memorandum No PZ 24-023 Page 4 S:\Planning\SHARED\WP\PROJECTS\Hester Park Airnasium (MSPM 2024.06.52187)\Staff Report_Hester Park Airnasium_FINAL.docx 4 RECOMMENDATION Based on the information contained herein and compliance with the applicable development regulations and review criteria, staff recommends APPROVAL of the proposed Major Site Plan Modification (MSPM-2023.10.63102) subject to satisfying any conditions of approval recommended by the City Commission.

A meeting with the local Pressure Washing vendors was held on August 28th, 2024, at 3:00 p.m. to review the bid requirements. The vendors were provided with the location of the sidewalks and square footage of the sidewalks included in the bid. The bid closed on 9/6/24 and the project is slated to begin Fall 2024. We are hoping to expand this project to include City buildings (exterior) as well. Pressure wash all sidewalks on the major corridors. Below is the total square footage of sidewalks inventoried: North and South Roads:Total Square feet of sidewalks on N/S Roads: 924,528 Square Feet East and West Roads: Total Square feet of sidewalks on E/W Roads: 479,952 Square Feet Spring 2025 Public Works Adopt a Road An Adopt a Road program was created and presented to the City Commission on July 16, 2024. We are now working set up the process of automating the application and payment for the website. Then we will work on uploading the web page to provide the link for the application and payment. Additionally, we will be working with Marketing on the promotion of the program. The go live date is scheduled for October 1,2024. Create an Adopt a Road program. The volunteer organization will enter into an agreement with the City, during which they agree to conduct litter removal at regularly scheduled intervals. Winter 2024 Public Works Street Sweeping The City maintains sidewalks, pavements, and street signs that are not private or part of a homeowner’s association. The City spends $160,036.92 annually on street sweeping. The street sweepers remove on average 12,332 lbs. of debris each month, which equates to 147,984 lbs. or 73.99 tons annually. The City has also established set routes that are completed on a weekly basis, totally approximately 130 miles per week. *Possible alternatives to expanding services and raising costs is to perform alternate sweeping locations for example: o 1st Week of the month perform normal Route as attached, o 2nd Week of the month Perform 130 miles of only Neighborhood Sweeping o 3rd Week of the month perform Normal Route as attached o 4th Week of month perform 130 Identify areas that have high volume of trash and compare to current frequency of street sweeping. Evaluate routes and adjust based on areas that are identified as experiencing high volumes of trash. Summer 2025 992 miles of only Neighborhood Sweeping Public Works New Division – Streets and Beautification Division The City plans to create a new Division (Streets and Beautification Division) under Public Works that will merge the Streets Division with a new beautification program. This new Division will be responsible for contract management for street sweeping, right of way landscape maintenance, repair and maintenance of citywide sidewalks and streets, public swale tree trimming, maintenance, coordination, and maintenance of our tree canopy with other Divisions (Sustainability, Parks, etc.). The Division Director and four Crew Worker positions will be posted in FY2025 (after budget approval). 1.)Post the requisition for thenew Division Director. Once hired,contracts and other duties will be transferred to this Division. Division Director will also establish schedule for litter pickups on major corridors. 2.) Once Division Director has been hired, create 2 to 4 Field Technician positions to begin scheduledlitter pickups. 1.)Fall 2024 2.) Summer 2025 coordination of litter,garbage,bulk trash and recycling inquiries and complaints, and maintenance and repair of irrigation systems along public right of ways. Community Standards, Legal Community Appearance and Property Maintenance Code Updates Part II of the City’s Code of Ordinances sets the requirements for code compliance. Chapters 10 and 15 have defined standards for cleanliness for properties and public spaces. Community Standards will work with the Legal Department to revise the existing Community Appearance and Property Maintenance ordinancesto ensure the City is taking appropriate measures for cleanliness and beautification. The following ordinances will be updated: Chapter 10, Sec 10-2, 10- 22,10-24, 10-56 Chapter 15, Sec 15-120 Fall 2025 Public Works Right of way appearance coordination with FDOT and Palm Beach County The Streets and Beautification Division will inspect sidewalks, street signage, ADA transition of sidewalks along FDOT and PBC roads. Following each inspection, a report detailing the findings will be submitted to FDOT and PBC to requesting repairs be made to the areas noted in the report. Begin conversations with FDOT and Palm Beach County to enhance maintenance in the non- City owned right of ways. The City will work with these organizations to assess current entryway features and appearances and strategize how we can clean up these entrances now before moving forward with enhancing architectural features. Fall 2025 993 Engineering and Arts and Culture Traffic Control Boxes The City does not currently have a program for wrapping traffic control boxes. Wrap traffic control boxes at almost every intersection within city limits. The City is currently working on obtaining required permits from FDOT and Palm Beach County since traffic control boxes are not on City property. Spring 2025 Economic Development Vacant Storefront Program The City allocated $25,000 towards the program, which is designed to enhance the visual appeal of empty street-level commercial properties in Boynton Beach. This Program applies to commercial tenant spaces with storefront windows located on the ground level that are visible and accessible from the public right-of-way. Program will be housed under Economic Development. When there is vacant commercial space, the City will be funding vinyl wraps to cover windows while stores are vacant. Funding is providedfor printing,installation, and deinstallation of the vinyl wraps. Program launched August 2024.
