II. ADMINISTRATIVE:
AA. Creation of Mayor Pro Tern Position
When the Commissioners were sworn in at the last meeting, the nomination and election of
Vice Mayor took place. It has been the practice of the Commission to rotate that position to a
Commissioner with at least one year of experience. The Commissioners were sensitive to the
fact that Commissioner Tillman has a full-time job that would prevent him from fulfilling many
of the commitments that are required of the Mayor. For that reason only, the Commissioners
selected a fellow Commissioner who would be able to alter her schedule on short notice. The
Commissioners were not attempting to slight Commissioner Tillman in any way.
Mayor Taylor feels Commissioner 'l'illman must be recognized for his service, dedication and
contributions to the City. He requested that the position of Mayor Pro Tem be reinstated so
that Commissioner Tillman will be able to represent the Mayor when the Vice Mayor is unable to
take on that role.
,Motion
Vice Mayor .laskiewicz moved to instate the position of Mayor Pro Tem and nominate Henderson
Tillman for that position. Commissioner Titcomb seconded the motion that carried 5-0.

BOYNTON BEACH, FLOR.1;DA
MARCH 17, :!.998
Rob Wenners, Ernst & Young, explained that the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report for
1997 is a lengthy report that is divided into four sections. The first section is the [ntroductory
that includes the transmittal letter explaining the qualitative aspects of what has happened in
the City during the year and the Certificates of Achievement for Excellence in Financial
Reporting from the Government Financial Officers Association. The City has received this award
for a number of years, and it is anticipated the City will receive the award again. The
Certificate included in the 1997 report is for the year ending 1996.
The second section of the report includes Ernst & Young's report on the financial statements,
the financial statements themselves and the footnotes to the financial statements. The report
of the financial statements is unqualified which means that in Ernst & Young's opinion the
financial statements are fairly presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles. This year's report includes extra paragraphs to acknowledge the fact that the City
adopted a few new required accounting statements. The statements include combined
statements, fund statements, combining statements and individual statements. One new
financial statement was included this year that shows the pension funds as a separate
statement.
Section 3 is a statistical section including financial and non-financial information about the City,
The non-financial information includes demographics and millage rates. This is important
information but they are not financial statements.
The last section is on compliance with the Single Audit ACt and the Rules of the Auditor General
for the State of Florida. This section includes information on the grants received from the
federal government, the State and from the County. The reports are unqualified and contain no
significant issues. The Management Letter includes recommendations on improving internal
controls and efficiency.
Mr. Wenners thanked Diane Reese, Finance Director, and City staff for their cooperation during
this audit..
Mayor Taylor thanked Mr. Wenners for this task. He pointed out that this is a very important
job that is required by State Statute and which costs the City $70,000.

B. Authorize an Emergency Sewer Repair in the amount of $24,405
Dale Sugerman, Assistant City Manager, explained that this was an emergency situation that we
were not prepared for.
Mark Law, Deputy Utilities Director, reported that this repair is needed at the 2700 block of
North Seacrest Boulevard. It is a rear easement sewer that is vintage 1960. It is beyond the
equipment capabilities that we own. We will be using an existing Palm Beach County bid. The
sewer is currently working. However, there is a hole in the back yard of the residence. The
repair must be made.
In response to Mayor Pro Tem Tillman, Mr. Law explained that we were unable to run the video
camera through the line because of the amount of sand in the line. Once the line is repaired, it
will be cleaned to determine the condition of the pipe. If it is in need of additional help, it will
be insituformed.

Commissioner Titcomb moved to approve the emergency sewer repair as requested.

Hotion
Mayor Pro Tem Tillman moved to remove this item from the table. Commissioner Titcomb
seconded the motion that carried 5-0.
Tambri Heyden, Planning and Zoning Director, advised that this item was brought to the City
Commission at the last meeting when The Home Depot submitted a request for temporary
outdoor sale of merchandise. Staff denied the request because it did not fall within our Code.
In addition, there are inconsistencies between the zoning code and the Occupational License
Code. Staff felt this was a good time to bring the inconsistencies to the attention of the City
Commission so that policy direction could be established to prepare an Ordinance for adoption.
Staff is looking for direction with respect to the following items:
1. Does the Commission wish to limit the type of merchandise temporarily
sold outdoors (such a limitation could be seasonal merchandise used or
displayed in celebration of a federal holiday or religious holiday, arts and
craft, s, antiques and collector's items)?
2. Does the Commission wish to restrict who can sell outdoor merchandise
(i.e., not for profits, anyone With property owner approval or operator of
the business in the building located on the property)?
3. Does the Commission wish to require Commission approval for special
events or transfer this responsibility to staff?.

Staff would not want to discourage car and art shows in parking lots that are sponsored by for-
profit organizations (shopping center promoters). However, we do not want retailers to use this
as a means of extending the sale of merchandise outside their buildings. Occupational License
fees are based on merchandise in inventory, and this can be used as a loophole. In addition,
there are aesthetic concerns associated with this type of activity.
Vice Mayor -laskiewicz agreed with Ms. Heyden's statement with respect to aesthetic concerns.
She is hopeful the Commission will only consider the not-for-profit organizations as was done in
the past. She does not want to extend this but does not wish to exclude the special events
because they are an asset to the City.
Commissioner Titcomb questioned whether Ms. Heyden reviewed what other neighboring cities
are doing in this regard. Ms. Heyden responded affirmatively. She contacted Boca Raton, West
Palm Beach, Palm Beach Gardens, and Delray Beach as well as unincorporated Palm Beach
County. None of the cities allow this. Unincorporated Palm Beach County does allow it.
With respect to Item #1, Ms. Heyden explained that for the past few years, the City has
allowed The Home Depot to sell Christmas trees. They are not a not-for-profit organization.
The problem with making a distinction between not-for-profit and for-profit is that there are
shopping center promoters. They charge a fee for grand openings or special events and set up
booths to sell merchandise. However, if we limit the type of merchandise to seasonal
merchandise, we will shut the door on general retail such as carpets, equipment and clothing.
Mayor Taylor expressed concern about the outdoor display of merchandise on Ocean Avenue in
front of the antique stores on weekends. He does not want this activity to take place.
Ms. Heyden advised that as part of the downtown marina district, we would want to encourage
vendor carts in the promenade area. Therefore, this Ordinance will be tailored to make sure
that type of activity is not excluded in the fUture.
Mayor Pro Tern Tillman questioned what would prevent him from going to the City Commission
for approval to sell a seasonal item in an open-air tent such as swimsuits. Attorney Cherof
advised that an Occupational License would be required or the request would have to be for a
special permit.
Mayor Pro Tem Tillman questioned how this Ordinance could be written so as not to
discriminate against anyone. Ms. Heyden explained that seasonal merchandise is an issue she
will work on with the legal department. She suggested that seasonal merchandise would be
something that is used or displayed in connection with celebrating a holiday (federal holiday or
religious holiday).
Commissioner .laskiewicz reported that she has received telephone calls from local florists who
vehemently object to the outdoor sale of plants and flowers for Mother's Day and Easter
because those sales impair their business. Ms. Heyden offered to address that issue.
MEETTNG M]'NUTES
REGULAR CTI'Y COMM'rSSI'ON
BOYNTON BEACH, FLOR[DA
MARCH 17, 1998
With respect to special events, the procedure has been that the requests come to the
Commission. There is a detailed list of criteria in the zoning code that is used by staff: to
evaluate these requests. Since the criteria is so specific, staff questions whether or not it is
necessary to continue bringing these requests to the Commission or whether they can be
handled administratively.
There was a consensus of the Commission to require Commission approval because this is a
hard line to draw. There are some items that should be presented to the Commission such as a
previous request for a tent revival. Mayor Taylor would not want staff to take responsibility for
making a decision on such a request.
Commissioner Titcomb feels it is necessary to look at each item as a special situation. He
explained that the reason people put merchandise outside on the sidewalk is because the area
does not have critical mass from a marketing standpoint. The intent of putting merchandise
outside is to bring people to the stores. That same need is not necessary in a well-marketed,
well-populated shopping center. He believes the City might have to establish special districts
such as the downtown business district.
Bulent Kastarlak, Director of Development, feels that in connection with special events, the
merchants licensed to sell their products or provide their services are also eligible to participate
in the special events. There is nothing to exclude them from having a booth or tent for that
purpose. Therefore, there is no bias involved. If a merchant is concerned about competition
on a special day, he can take his products out and compete under the same circumstances.
With respect to where discretion ends and :obligation begins, it is a very fine point. However,
Mr. Kastarlak requested an opportunity to develop simple criteria with respect to where to draw
the line so that it will simpli~ the Commission's tasks.
Mayor Taylor said he would be happy to review criteria developed by staff.
2. Executive Session - 9:00 p.m. or immediately following Commission
meeting to discuss Collective Bargaining
This session will be held immediately following this meeting.
XII. UNFINISHED BUSINESS:
A. COBWRA Meeting with Reference to Annexation
Vice Mayor 3askiewicz reported that she met for three hours with several members of COBWRA
for information gathering relative to the annexation program. The meeting was contentious at
commencement, but ended amicably. They would like to pursue further meetings. Vice Mayor
-]askiewicz requested that COBWRA submit agendas in the future so that she can gather the
necessary information in advance of the meeting. She further requested that staff (Ms.
Heyden) attend the meetings with her. Vi:ce Mayor -laskiewicz will keep the City Commission
updated as the meetings progress.
