Item IV-C.3 - Proposed Resolution No. R99- Re: Approving Work
Authorization #10 with Camp Dresser & McKee, Inc. in the amount of $Z98,591
for the design, permitting and bidding services for Industrial Avenue Corridor and
Costa Belle Subdivision Stormwater Improvements
Vice Mayor Tillman requested that additional methods be determined to deal with
stormwater and irrigation in the area of Hester Park. He suggested implementing a pilot
project with reuse-type options.
M!r. 5ugerman advised that staff has been discussing this and looking at using Rolling
Gbeen Municipal Complex as the central area for collection and redistribution of the
ir¢igation water. Staff will be meeting with the design engineers tomorrow to discuss
laiJnching this program. Mr. 5ugerman reminded the Commissioners that staff is not
wbrking with a budget at the present time.
M~. 5ugerman explained that this particular agenda item deals with the formal design of
tl~e Industrial Avenue and Costa Belle projects. With respect to Costa Belle, the firm
wquld design a collection and lift station. If the design were more expensive than the
vc~lue of the two homes, a decision would be required relative to acquisition.
Cdmmissioner benahan felt it was foolish for the City to spend any money since only two
houses were involved. In her opinion, the City should consider purchasing the houses. Mr.
5Ugerman explained that most of what would be designed under this work authorization
wquld involve Industrial Avenue. However, approximately 20% of the dollar amount
in~olves Costa Belle.
Cojmmissioner benahan requested that the Commissioners be provided with information
pr!or to the meeting on the value of the Costa Belle component.
M~. 5ugerman ad'vised that the Costa Belle neighborhood has poor drainage. This design
w~Uld help with the poor drainage and would eliminate the flooding of the two houses. The
two houses that experience flooding are at the lowest point and were the first two houses

ere was a consensus to remove this from this agenda. Mr. 5ugerman will prepare two
!orate agenda items for the ,Tanuary 4th meeting; one of the items would deal with
Justrial Avenue and the second would deal with Costa Belle. The design engineer will be
sent at the meeting to respond to questions.

AAr. Hawkins requested that Mr. 5ugerman's agenda memo be very specific so that
everyone will be aware that this would only be a "very premature" discussion of Costa Bella.
Attorney Cherof recommended that the Commission be provided with the option of
creating a special assessment project to improve an area like Costa Bella. The cost of the
improvements would be passed onto the property owners. AAr. 5ugerman said that the
Industrial Avenue improvements would probably require a special assessment. Attorney
Cherof pointed out that the property owners that obtain the special benefit pay for that
benefit over a period of time.
· Item VII-A - Project: The Learning Depot PreSchool
A postponement has been requested until after the December 28th Planning & Development
Board meeting. Therefore, this item will appear on the ,Tanuary 4*h City Commission

Item XI-C.3 - Proposed Resolution No. R99- Re: Approving and authorizing
execution of an agreement for professional services between the City of Boynton
Beach and Smith, Ballard & Logan, P.A.
Vice Mayor Tillman requested that this item be removed from the agenda so that others
could have an opportunity to perform this service. He pointed out that the "ball dropped"
on some things in the past and he would like to go out for bids on the State level and
nationally.
Mr. Hawkins advised that the item would be removed from the agenda and pointed out that
we could do an RFC~. 5taft will provide information relative to the firms that are providing
these services to cities in the surrounding areas.
