II. ADHINISTRATIVE
Commissioner Matson broached the subject of City employees serving on City
Boards. She referred to the organizational chart showing the City Boards
directly under the Mayor and the City Commission. Since these boards are advi-
sory boards to politicians, she assumed these advisory boards are political in
nature. She also pointed out that the Civil Service Regulations indicate that
employees cannot be political.
City Attorney Cherof stated that the boards themselves should not be political
in nature. They are either advisory boards or quasi judicial boards that make
decisions on behalf of the City Administration. Therefore, they and their mem-
bership should not be construed as being political.

E, Creation of a Public Information Officer position (civilian) In the
Police OepartJnent
In response to Vice Mayor Aguila, Police Chief Thomas Dettman advised that the
pay range of the public information specialists in the civilian sector
throughout the law enforcement agencies in South Florida is $26,000 to $48,000.
A pay grade of 32 was arrived at by comparing this position to a police
sergeant, who would be called to the field under similar circumstances. Also in
response to Vice Mayor Aguila, Chief Dettman advised that the duration of twelve
months was in preparation for the upcoming budget.
In light of the economy, Vice Mayor Aguila wondered if a Public Information
Officer would be kept busy enough to warrant the expense, especially since this
work is now being performed by other members in the Department.
In response to Commissioner Matson, City Manager Miller advised that the funding
for this position would come out of the money set aside to implement the recom-
mendations contained in the Murphy/Mayo report. There is a balance of approxi-
mately $40,000 in that contingency account. City Manager Miller stated that one
of the prime objectives of this position is to enhance and increase the image of
the Police Department by going out in the field and communicating with civic
organizations, condominium associations, etc.
Commissioner Matson voiced concern regarding furnishing public information to
the media without first going through the City Attorney's Office. City Attorney
Cherof assured her that the Police Department follows explicit criteria prior to
releasing documentation, and that in any questionable area, they first process
requests through his office for review.
Chief Dettman stated that Patrick Murphy was surprised that a Department and
City this size was not represented by a Public Information Officer.

NAY 4, 1993
Mayor Harmening asked City Manager Miller where the money for this positiOn will
come from next year. City Manager Miller advised that the money would have to
come out of the Police Department funds.
Commissioner Matson would like to see the projections for next year.
Motion
Commissioner Matson moved to table this matter until the July budget hearings.
Vice Mayor Aguila seconded the motion.
Commissioner Walshak pointed out that Patrick Murphy informed the City
Commission of the importance of this City having a Public Information Officer.
In addition, in 1988, the Justice Department indicated a person of this nature
was necessary. Both Mr. Murphy and the Justice Department felt this would solve
many of the problems throughout the community. Commissioner Walshak pointed out
that the Public Information Officer would be on probation for twelve months,
which gives the City time to determine if this position is of benefit to the
City. He felt a Public Information Officer would be of benefit the community.
Commissioner Katz pointed out that the City Commission asked Chief Dettman to
improve the image of the Police Department, which he is trying to do by hiring
a Public Information Officer.
The motion carried 3-2. Commissioners Walshak and Katz cast the dissenting
votes.

-9-

more responsive to the citizens of the various towns and cities. He advised
that felony cases are currently randomly assigned to judges by computer. With
his program, case assignments would be predetermined. He explained that there
are seven felony divisions of the Court. With his program, the County would be
divided into seven geographic districts. The three lawyers assigned to each
felony division would be assigned to a geographic district. In order to
equalize the crime rate among the seven districts, the major cities would be
combined with the smaller towns to ensure that each of the seven divisions of
the Court have an equal number of cases. The benefits of this program are as
follows:
(1)
(2)
(3)
Law enforcement would know who their attorneys are;
The lawyers in the State Attorney's Office would work with the same law
enforcement department. Hence, they will get to know their standard
operating procedures, the law enforcement officers, the geographic area,
the troubled spots, the gang leaders, the problems, and the concerns law
enforcement has with regard to that particular city; and
Once a month, at least one of the three lawyers, will meet at the City Hall
of their geographic district with law enforcement, the City leaders, and
the City residents to find out what areas they are most concerned about and
to formulate a plan to be responsive to those needs.
State Attorney Krischer stated that this program will make his office more
responsive to law enforcement, and law enforcement and his office more respon-
sive to the City and the residents. This program has been endorsed by the
Criminal Justice Commission, the Police Chiefs' Association, Sheriff Willie, and
the Municipal League.
State Attorney Krischer stated that in order to put this program into place, the
Administrative Order which currently provides that cases be assigned by the
Sheriff's computer on a random basis, must be changed to provide that cases be
assigned on a geographic basis. At a panel hearing in two or three months,
State Attorney Krischer will have the opportunity to present this program. He
asked the City Commission for support, either in the form of a resolution or a
letter from the Mayor, to present at this hearing.
State Attorney Krischer added that this program is going to make everybody aware
of what their judges are doing.
It was the consensus of the City Commission to have a resolution drafted in sup-
port of State Attorney Krischer's program.
At this point, Item XI.E was moved up on the agenda.

C, Resolutions
Proposed Resolution No, R93-73 Re: A resolution authorizing the
issuance of not exceeding $25,000,000 aggregate principal amount
of public service tax refunding revenue bonds of the City of
Boynton Beach (Series 1986 and 1990)
Attorney Cherof read Proposed Resolution No. R93-73 by title only:
A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE ISSUANCE OF NOT EXCEEDING $25,000,000
AGGREGATE PRINCIPAL AMOUNT OF PUBLIC SERVICE TAX REFUNDING REVENUE BONDS
OF THE CITY OF BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA, FOR THE PURPOSE OF PROVIDING FUNDS
TO ADVANCE-REFUND THE CITY'S PUBLIC SERVICE TAX REVENUE BONDS, SERIES
1986 AND SERIES 1990 AND TO PAY THE COST OF CERTAIN CAPITAL EXPENDITURES;
PROVIDING FOR THE PAYMENT OF SUCH BONDS AND OF ANY ADDITIONAL BONDS AND
THE INTEREST THEREON FROM CERTAIN DESIGNATED REVENUES, PARTICULARLY
PUBLIC SERVICE TAX REVENUES; DESCRIBING THE TERMS, SECURITY AND OTHER
PROVISIONS OF SUCH BONDS; SETTING FORTH THE RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OF THE
OWNERS OF SUCH BONDS; PROVIDING SEVERABILITY; AND PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE
DATE.
Michael Hole of Smith Barney advised that no action is required on the resolu-
tions at this time, since he has not entered the market yet because it has not
been as good as he would have liked it to be. He hoped it would be good
tomorrow.
Mr. Hole stated that at the last meeting, the Commission decided to liquidate
half of the debt service reserve and the savings from the refunding to provide
- 15-
MINUTES - REGULAR CITY COMMISSION MEETING
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA
KAY 4, 1993
additional proceeds up front for several projects. The amount of money set as a
target was $3 million, which came from the following three components: savings,
the release of half of the reserve, and filling in the window that existed when
the current debt service has about a $2 million payment from now until 2006.
The Commission's direction was to restructure the new issue and have the new
payment being roughly $2 million all the way out to 2010. The extra amortizing
back between 2006 and 2010 produced another $1.7 million. Therefore, these
three components added up to roughly $400,000 of savings up front, $1 million
for the reserve, and another $1.6 or $1.7 from the amortizing in the back win-
dow.
Mayor Harmening said the last he heard the savings up front was a little more
then $400,000, as of today. Mr. Hole pointed out that the savings moves all
over the place. Today he priced the portfolio and the bonds and was able to get
approximately $450,000 cash up front as far as savings. Putting the total
package together based on half the reserve and amortizing totaled about $3.1
million. Mayor Harmening pointed out that Mr. Hole's two scenarios showed a
considerbly greater savings than that. Mr. Hole pointed out that the $450,000
is only the cash up front and that $50,000 to $60,000 would accrue over time,
for a total of approximately $505,000 in savings today. Mr. Hole added that the
debt service is actually being reduced slightly compared to the existing debt
service because of the rounding amounts.
Mayor Harmening inquired about Smith Barney's projection for the market.
Mr. Hole advised that the market is clearly falling. Theoretically, the munici-
pal market interest rates should fall as well. However, Smith Barney doubts
that the rates will go back down in the near future, to where they were on March
8th. They think there is a possibility that the market will be very strong in
the summertime because some people are of the belief that the Clinton economic
plan is failing and that the Fed is going to have to lower interest rates even
further.
Mayor Harmening believed $3 million is considerably more than the City needs.
He felt that if the City took the savings, plus half the reserve, there will be
more than adequate money for its purposes.
Mayor Harmening thought the Commission discussed a minimum cash out savings of
$500,000 at the previous meeting. Mr. Hole stated that he could do the bond
issue tomorrow if the market stays where it was today and produce $500,000 of
net present value savings, which is down from where the peak was, but is within
the range discussed. That would be about $450,000 cash up front and $50,000
accrued over time.
Mr. Hole said he could get close to the $3 million target that was set at the
last meeting and save nothing by cashing in the reserve. If he does not touch
the reserve or fill in the window in the back end with additional bonds, he can
produce $500,000 of savings, keeping the debt service exactly the way it is now.

Notlon
Vice Mayor Aguila moved to direct the underwriter to produce a minimum of
$500,000 in savings and to cash out half of the reserve, leaving the 1986
maturities as is. Commissioner Matson seconded the motion.
Mr. Hole advised that he will be at the Thursday meeting if he hits the $500,000
tomorrow. If not, he will contact the City and wait.
Commissioner Walshak suggested accepting any kind of savings at this point in
time. Mark Raymond with Moyle Flanigan, stated that in 1986, Congress decided
that you can only advance refund taxes and bonds one time. Therefore, if this
deal was done for $1.00 in savings tomorrow, that would be it for at least ten
years because of the call protection on the bonds. The City would be stuck with
that if interest rates fell to 1 per cent. This is why it becomes critical not
to refund.early.
The motion carried 3-2. Commissioners Walshak and Katz cast the dissenting
votes.
Mr. Hole pointed out that $400,000 or $450,000 in cash would only yield the City
about $1.4 million.

Vice Mayor Aguila moved to table this item. Commissioner Matson seconded the
motion, which carried 5-0.
2, Settlement Offer - Case of Flnlzlo vs City of Boynton Beach
Vice Mayor Aguila could not understand why it is so complicated to compute the
amount of compensation owed Mr. Finizio. City Manager Miller explained that the
City and Mr. Finizio and his attorney, Cynthia Greenhouse, have different compu-
tations. Mayor Harmening pointed out that Mr. Finizio is also seeking compen-
sation for attorney fees, and that there is no reason to believe he is entitled
to them.
Vice Mayor Aguila inquired if both parties have reviewed each other's method of
computation and discussed the fallacies in each other's approach. City Manager
Miller said he heard Ms. Greenhouse give a briefing on how her figures were com-
puted; however, he has not seen any report. The City's computations have been
provided to Ms. Greenhouse and Mr. Finizio. Since the City is not in receipt of
any document showing the plaintiff's computations, Vice Mayor Aguila was in
favor of having the Court decide this matter.
Ms. Greenhouse, 980 North Federal Highway, Suite 206, Boca Raton, Florida,
explained that basically both parties used the same formula in their computa-
tions. However, instead of bringing their figure forward on a percentage basis
according to raises and merit raises, etc., in carrying that figure forward, the
City selected only raises that were given to all employees in the entire City,
as opposed to following the actual raises that were received by Mr. Finizio.
City Manager Miller disagreed with this statement.
Vice Mayor Aguila asked what Ms. Greenhouse's problem is with providing the City
with her computations. Ms. Greenhouse said she does not have any problems what-
soever. She said there was never a problem with providing them; however, she
did not feel it was a wise legal decision for her to provide them to a party who
has been nothing but adversary without any good faith attempts to resolve this
matter.
Vice Mayor Aguila was not ready to settle this matter without the City having
the opportunity to review and discuss Ms. Greenhouse's computations.
Ms. Greenhouse said the City Commission will receive that information under any
circumstances after the deposition of her accountant. City Attorney Cherof
asked Ms. Greenhouse to provide the numbers to.the City Commission or the City
Manager in advance of the deposition. Ms. Greenhouse said she would be happy to
provide them. She said the numbers were not in any type of final form and that
the figures are updated almost on a daily basis. She asked if the City wanted
them to be in some type of informal format or not. Mayor Harmening advised her
that it did not matter, just as long as they are legible. In response to
Ms. Greenhouse, Mayor Harmening directed her to provide her numbers to the City
Manager. Ms. Greenhouse will try to provide this information prior to Thursday
in order to save the City the expense of deposing her accountant.

Motion
Vice Mayor Aguila moved not to settle the suit at this time. Commissioner

Commissioner Walshak would like to see, not only the computations from the
plaintiff, but the City's computations. City Manager Miller advised him that he
will have the City's computations tomorrow morning.
The motion carried 5-0.
City Attorney Cherof pointed out that if the computations are received, the City
COmmission can add this item to the agenda at the Special City Commission
Meeting sceduled for Thursday.
3, Citrus Glen Limited Partnership vs City of Boynton Beach (Miner
Road).
W. Richard Staudinger, City Engineer, referred to Planning and Zoning Department
Memorandum 93-089. He stated that the City has an offer relative to the
construction of the missing link for Miner Road. One portion of the project
concerns the portion of Miner Road adjacent to Lawrence Road in the Citrus Glen
Development. Citrus Glen was supposed to build this road as part of their
development approval. They have not completed that construction. The original
bond was for $276,741. Citrus Glen estimated and offered $100,000 to complete
this portion of the road. This figure has not yet been verified by staff or
Mr. Staudinger's office.
The other piece of the puzzle is the missing link between Sandalwood Drive on
the east side and Congress Avenue where Fire Station #3 is, and Citrus Glen on
the west side. There is an existing bond for $54,000 from Gene B. Glick for
that development. There is also a development requirement that Knollwood Groves
contribute towards the construction of this road. Knollwood Groves and Gene B.
Glick offered to put up the remaining portion of the money to build this road.
Mr. Staudinger agreed in principle with the proposals. He asked for authoriza-
tion to meet with the parties and draft two separate agreements {one between the
City and Citrus Glen and a three party agreement between Gene B. Glick,
Knollwood Groves, and the City}, and then to bring these agreements back to the
Commission for their concurrence before anything is signed.
Mayor Harmening requested additional information regarding Executive Estates and
Citrus Trail Flats and the stop light. Mr. Staudinger recommended keeping the
bond for that light because it will be needed in the future.
In response to Commissioner Katz, Mr. Staudinger stated that Citrus Glen indi-
cated to him that they have installed all of the drainage system and a good por-
tion of the base. There is just a little bit of paving and some other things
left to be done. He recommended that the contract be worded keyed to the
remaining construction, which would include an inspection by the City and an
estimate. Also in response to Commissioner. Katz regarding the missing link,
Mr. Staudinger advised that not enough bond was posted years ago.

NAY 4, 1993
Commissioner Walshak would like to make sure the $283,515 is a cost that can be
attained. In addition, he hoped that because of the $54,000 bond issue, that
time limits be set on these projects. He asked if the County would want to
build Miner Road if they are going to vest. Mr. Staudinger would rather keep
this under the City's control.
Consensus
It was the consenus of the City Commission to proceed as expeditiously as
possible while still preserving the City's rights.
4, Flreflghter Step Arbitration
City Attorney Cherof advised that the Fire Union has initiated a grievance and
an arbitration with respect to merit increases that they claim should have been
implemented into their pay checks effective October 1, 1992. City Attorney
Cherof did not feel that the grievance is the proper subject matter of an
arbitration and requested the City Commission's authorization to challenge the
arbitration by {1) filing a petition with PERC in Tallahassee and attempt to get
an advisory ruling from them; {2} filing~a local Court action and submitting the
contract to the Court to determine that there is no arbitration available; or
{3} having an arbitrator decide arbitrability. City Attorney Cherof did not
recommend the latter choice because of substantial expense to the City. He
asked for broad authorization from the City Commission to approach this matter
in several different ways. He would simply ask the Union to agree that it is
not arbitrable and to submit that single issue to a third party to decide.
Absent that, he would like to take it to Court.
Motion
Vice Mayor Aguila moved to direct the City Attorney to oppose arbitration.
Commissioner Matson seconded the motion, which carried 3-2. Commissioners
Walshak and Katz cast the dissenting votes.

Items for discussion requested b~ Na~or Harmenln9
1, Creatlon of #a~vor Pro Tern
It seemed to Mayor Harmening that it might be timely to create the post of Mayor
Pro Tem to establish the line of succession. He stated that many cities have
this position.
Con~nissioner Katz inquired about the need for a Mayor Pro Tem. Mayor Harmening
advised that in case the Mayor and Vice Mayor are both unable to attend a
meeting, the Mayor Pro Tem would chair that meeting. Commissioner Walshak
stated that the Charter indicates that the Vice Mayor moves up and the City
Commission elects a new Vice Mayor.
Notion
Commissioner Matson moved to direct the City Attorney to prepare the appropriate
ordinance creating the position of Mayor Pro Tem. Vice Mayor Aguila seconded
the motion.
Commissioner Katz was assured by Mayor Harmening that no increase in salary is
associated with this Mayor Pro Tem position. Commissioner Walshak felt this was
a joke and that the Charter adequately covers this.
The motion carried 3-2. Commissioners Walshak and Katz cast the dissenting
votes.
C, Items for discussion requested b~ Commissioner Walshak

This item was deleted from the agenda.
Authorization for Clt~ Attorne~ to prepare an ordinance reference. No

Charles Frederick, Recreation and Parks Director, advised that there was a
request from a resident that the C-16 canal be looked at in terms of speed
problems, potential vessel conjestion and accident situations. He recommended
a No Wake Zone 200 feet on each side of the existing ramp.
Consensus
It was the consensus of the City Commission to authorize the City Attorney to
prepare an ordinance reference No Wake Zone (speed restriction on the C-16
canal) (Pioneer Park and other areas), limited to within 200 feet of each direc-
tion of the launch area.

XII. CITY NANAGER~S REPORT
A. Procedure to fill posttlon of Ftre Chlef upon retirement of Flre
Chief Ed Allen
City Manager Miller recommended that the City conduct a nationwide search for a
replacement Fire Chief, which will take approximately six months. He advised
that Chief Allen is looking towards retiring the first week or so in January of
1994. City Manager Miller would like to have somebody on board for several
months before Chief Allen leaves.
Commissioner Walshak preferred to promote from within because it breeds good
morale. He expressed concern that the City does not have a Deputy Fire Chief to
take over the job of the Fire Chief if something were to happen to him. City
Manager Miller advised that testing is currently being set up for such a posi-
tion. Pursuant to the Civil Service Rules and Regulations, three officers in
the Boynton Beach Fire Department currently qualify for Deputy Fire Chief.
Consensus
It was the consensus of the City Commission to authorize the City Manager to
conduct a nationwide search for Fire Chief.
B, Update - Local Transit System
City Manager Miller stated that at the last meeting, he reported that the tran-
sit study should be completed in October, 1993, and if the City were to piggy-
back off of Co-Tran for the capital equipment, it would take a good eight months
or so to acquire the vehicles through the Federal grant process. He asked the
City Commission for authorization to (1) request the acquisition of four buses
accessible to handicap-lift equipment through the Metropolitan Planning
Organization. The project would be funded through a Federal Transit
Administration Section 9 Grant; and (2) acknowledge that the City will provide
the entire local share of the capital costs up to a maximum of 20 per cent.
City Manager Miller advised that this needs to be made in a formal official
action and a letter sent to MPO as soon as possible.
Norton
Commissioner Walshak moved to approve the City Manager's request. Commissioner
Matson seconded the motion, which carried 5-0.
A resident of Boynton Bay who was in the audience thanked the Commission for
taking care of the needs of the senior citizens in the area.
