project since construction of the marina is anticipated and resurfacing will be
done after that construction. Further, Sutton Drive, in the southeast quadrant,
is not a resurfacing, but a resealing which has become necessary as a result of
cuts in the road made by the Utilities Department.
Commissioner Harmening inquired as to when this project will be done. Ms.
Parker stated that the City is recommending piggybacking the Palm Beach County
bid!in order to get this accomplished quickly.
Hot~o,n
Co~issioner Harmening moved to approve. Commissioner Walshak seconded the
motion.
In response to Vice Mayor Matson's question regarding a two-part motion, it was
determined that a budget transfer could be handled separately. Ms. Parker said
theicosts listed are only estimates and because bids could come back lower,
there may be enough money in the Local Option Gas Tax budget to do the entire
project. If that is not possible, staff will return with a budget transfer at a
later date.
Theimotion carried 4-0.
Consider offering a reward of $100 for information leading to the
arrest and conviction of those persons responsible for vandalism and

commissioner Harmening moved to have the City offer a $1,000 reward for infor-
mat)ion leading to the arrest and conviction of those parties who are guilty of
vandalizing the Golf Course. Commissioner Walshak seconded the motion.
Commissioner Harmening urged the press to print this offering in the newspapers
to ~ncourage people with information to come forward.
Thei motion carried 4-0.

*MINUTES - REGULAR CITY CO~ISSION MEETING
BOYNTOM BEACH, FLORIDA
DECEMBER 15, 1992
Descri pt i on: ANNEXATION/LAND USE ELEMENT AMENOMENTIREZONING/
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN TEXT AMENDMENT: Request to annex
land and show as Local Retail Commercial, to rezone
from CC (Community Commercial) in Palm Beach County
i to C-3 (Community Commercial) and to amend the text
i of the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Element -
~ Planning Area 6.c.
Mr.i Cutro made the presentation. In 1989, when the Comprehensive Plan was
being prepared, this property was shown outside the City as residential. The
Palm Beach County Planning Department attempted to change the unincorporated
plah to show it as residential, but the property owner asked the City to send a
letter to the County showing the land as commercial land use and zoning. It was
lef~ that way. The City's Plan was not changed from residential to commercial
and a discrepancy now exists between the County Plan and the City Plan.
Thelowner has signed a Water Service Agreement, received concurrency and site
plan review for the site from the County. This is effective until April of
1993.
Thei only problem the City has encountered with the site plan is that the owner
has! been asked to install a buffer wall on the east side as well as on the
sou~h. The applicant has stipulated to do that. At its meeting of December
8th, the Planning and Development Board reviewed this proposal and forwarded it
with a recommendation for approval
.
vice Mayor Matson requested clarification on why Messrs. Lehnertz and Davis
objected to this proposal. Mr. Cutro explained that they felt there might still
be a possibility of using this property as residential. Mr. Cutro pointed out
that conflicting policies exist. Corner properties are supposed to be used for
co~ercial and attempts should be made to try to put commercial near intersec-
tioi~s of larger arterials. However, at the same time, this property is being
shown as residential.
Thei applicant was not present.
THERE WAS NO ONE PRESENT TO SPEAK ON PUBLIC HEARING.
It Was determined that no action was required by the Commission until the
reading of the Ordinances later in the meeting.
B. Text Amendment reference Day Care Centers In R1-AA Zonlng Dlstrlct
Mr. Cutro made the presentation and reminded the Commission that they authorized
staff to go forward with a text change to allow, as a conditional use, day care
ceni~ers in the R1-AA Zoning District when they are accessory to churches. An
Ord)nance to accomplish this appears on tonight's agenda for first reading.
~ Houston.) 600 NW loth Court) is a homeowner in Sky Lake. He opposes this
change because th'e ~-~urch of God has a parcel of land on which they wish to
build a day care center. That parcel of land abuts his property as well as
others. The owners are concerned with the possible increase in noise levels,
-9-
NINUTE$ - REGULAR CITY COt414I$$ION HEETING

DECEHBER 15, 1992
increased traffic on Old Boynton Road and the effect on property values. Mr.
HouSton does not feel these day care centers should be allowed to be built in
the~back yards of an existing residential community. He will return on January
5thito again voice his opposition to this change.
~Rasmussen~ $08 NW 10th Court! is President of the Sky Lake Homeowners
AssOciation. She suppOrted Mr. Houston's position of opposition. She requested
more information on how this change will affect the community and who she could
contact in the City to discuss this change. Mr. Cutro provided his business
ca rd ·
MayOr Weiner advised that the homeowners' concerns will be handled at the time a
site plan is submitted to the City by the Church of God. She explained that
this Ordinance will allow churches to have the ability to have day care centers
as a use; however, it does not focus on one particular piece of property.
Ms.iRasmussen was advised that mos~ of the churches throughout the City have an
R1-A or R1-AA zoning. When allowing this use in the R1-AA district, the text
cha~ge would automatically allow the use in lower rated districts.

nissioner Walshak confirmed that a simple majority of the Commission was
aired to change the text. He inquired what this would do to the church's tax
3t status. Mr. Cutro did not believe the status would be changed at all.
3ointed out that if the church were to sublet a piece of land for a day care
ter, then the Property Appraiser would have to be consulted. In response to
nissioner Walshak's question, Mr. Cutro stated the comprehensive text of this
does not consider day care as a commercial business.
Corr~nissioner Walshak wondered if a complete text change was necessary for indi-
vidual churches to come in to seek permission for day care during the site plan
pro~ess. Mr. Cutro said the text change would allow any church in the R1-AA,
R1-A or any other district below that to come in for a conditional use to allow
the day care center. The conditional use would require them to provide the City
wit a site plan, ingress and egress plan, and a traffic study.
Comnissioner Walshak pointed out that once the conditional use is added and the
app icant meets that conditional use, it is difficult to turn down the request.
Mr. Cutro agreed. Commissioner Walshak is not in favor of this Ordinance.
C. Text Amendment reference 14arlne Canvas uses in the C-3 Zoning District
Mr. Cutro reported that this is another item which the Commission directed staff
to i~o forward on. This is a public hearing since the change would affect more
thai 25% Of the land area in the City.
THE~E WAS NO ONE PRESENT TO SPEAK ON PUBLIC HEARING.
VII PUBLIC AUDIENCE:
Wll. JaSearcy, 402 NE 13th Avenue~ congratulated the City for the meeting which
w-'~-~'~eld at Poinciana School with Mr. Frederick regarding Canal 16. She was
pleased with the proposal and hopes it will be submitted to Community Improve-
ment by January 8th. She further stated that she previously presented a request

for~a supermarket in the downtown area· She pointed out the great need for such
a facility and urged 'the Commission to get a supermarket for this area.
NQrman Strell, 3100 $, Congress Avenue, addressed the Commission with a problem
he is having at his place of business· He said some of the Sign Ordinances need
to be addressed. The Sign Ordinance prevents him from parking his delivery
vehlcle in front of h~s place of business. Although the City Manager s Office
and)Code Enforcement have been very helpful, the problem continues. He has been
told to park his vehicle behind his building, but when he did, it was broken
intO· He has two businesses in Boynton Beach, and the vehicle has been broken
intO at both locations when he parked in the rear. After discussions with the
city Manager's Office, he decided to park the vehicle in front of his building.
He has been doing that since March and there have been no break ins. However,
someone complained last week and Code Enforcement visited him. There is nothing
Code Enforcement can do to change the situation. He asked for consideration
from the Commission.
city Attorney Cherof will look at that provision of the Code to see if there is
an amendment which can deal with the Situation while keeping the elements of the
Sigp Code intact. Mr. Strell will contact Attorney Cherof tomorrow·
EliZabeth ~enkln$.., 711NW 15t $treet~ pointed out that Wilson Center is being.
neg)ected. It is in need of repairs. It needs painting, the eaves are rotting
andithe ground has large holes which makes walking very dangerous.
Maybr weiner explained that Wilson Center is an important part of the new con-
figpration of Poinciana School· It will become part of the total campus· The
SchOol Board has decided to save Poinciana School and the City is moving forward
on enlarging the property· All attention will turn toward the renovation of
Wilbon center. Next year's budget will include Wilson Center.
vice Mayor Matson is concerned about the condition of the grounds and asked the
City Manager's Office to send the Risk Manager to the property to investigate·
Theye might be a danger to the senior citizens who rely on that center and the
City will be held accountable for liability. She would like a report on what
can)be done immediately to improve the situation·

nissioner Walshak said he has spent more time in this area during the last
r than most Commissioners spent there in the last fifteen {15) years. He
nt countless hours at the Old Sewage Treatment Plant. He further advised
t a meeting is scheduled for 10:30 a.m. tomorrow at Wilson Center with some
the community leaders. Commissioner Walshak said he rides the streets of the
nunity approximately four to five times a week.

A. Otane Drive and 1-95 rtght-of-~.y clearln9
Commissioner Harmening advised that residents of Diane Drive were present to
address this situation. There are problems in that area which were not created
by the City, and he is not sure the City can do anything about the problem;
however, he will make a suggestion after the public has had an opportunity to
be heard.
Suzanne Malone, 3415 Diane Drive, reported that DOT has begun clearing the trees
and!shrubbery behind her house. The residents of the area want the trin~ning
stopped. They would also like a wall installed, but DOT keeps putting the resi-
dents off. The noise and pollution has increased since the trimming began. The
City took readings on the sound level which proved to be very high. A represen-
tative from DOT has visited the area as did Carol Hanson. Still, there is no
promise from anyone to stop the trimming. The value of the homes has been
affected as well as the health and safety of the children. DOT stated they are
trimming because of liability in the event a car goes off the road into the
bushes. The residents have a deadline of December 23rd to try to stop the
trimming. Ms. Malone requested the support of the Commission.
David Showalter, 3705 Diane Drive, said the noise exists and it is a problem.
He pointed out th~-EEh~as an accident behind his home about two years ago.
If those bushes had not been there, the chain link fence could not possibly have
stopped the car. The residents are experiencing problems with oil which is
polluting their pools and can be found on their windows. The residents are con-
cerned with the health and safety of their children. He urged help from the
County.
TediMc Lelland 3715 Diane Drive, lives in the area where the clearing has
~e~-~y begun'.' Three or four people requiring assistance have crossed the fence
fro~ 1-95. That buffer provided safety for the community. The tractor left at
the) site by DOT was vandalized. Mr. Mc Lelland also observed someone in his
pool area late one evening. He asked for help from the Commission.
~ Lewis, 3735 South Lake Drive, said her street is two blocks from where the
cmeQ[.cle ring is ta-'~i-~g~e~---Tti"T~--~ow possible to look straight throu..hg to the
traffic on 1-95. She is uncomfortable using her back porch at this time. There
areilncreased fumes and noise. There is no protection from any one crossing
from 1-95.
Commissioner Harmening agreed with everything said by the speakers. The noise
levlels averaged approximately 72.9 decibels. The shubbery acted as a barrier.
The~e have been reports of intruders on 9th Street since this clearing began.
The~City should support these residentswith a very strongly-worded Resolution
to DOT, all State and House Representatives, our two State Senators and U.S.
Houi~e Representatives, the Cabinet and the Governor. The Resolution should
inci)ude an option. If, in order to comply with the U. S. Department of
Trahsportation's guidelines for interstate highways, they can't provide the
reslidents with privacy and noise reduction, then the City should demand the wall
be built immediately following the cutting of the trees and revegetation of the
area the DOT contractor indiscriminately destroyed.

In order to expedite this, Commissioner Harmening asked the Commission to

the normal form.
Vice Mayor Matson will support the Resolution.
Commissioner Walshak will also support the Resolution and questioned what would
pre~ent the Commission from demanding the wall. Commissioner Harmening stated
theiCity can demand the wall in the Resolution. Commissioner Walshak feels the
Resolution should be as strong as possible.
The~e was a consensus of the Commission that Attorney Cherof draw up a Resolu-
tion to be signed by Mayor Weiner, attested by the City Clerk, in the strongest
possible terms to demand that the wall be built. Copies should be sent to our
Leg
tiv
May
in
the
Che
islative delegation, the two Florida Senators, the Congressional Representa-
the Governor and his Cabinet, DOT and the County Commission.
~r Weiner further suggested the City Manager write a letter to DOT demanding,
the strongest possible terms, that the wall be started immediately to give
residents some protection. A copy of this letter should be sent to Rick
sser.
Mr.iCutro reported that when Boca allowed the new interchange to be installed,
they demanded and got a wall put in prior to the construction of the inter-
cha~ge. In anticipation of the fact that 1-95 will be widened in the future, we
should demand the wall.
May~r Weiner reminded Attorney Cherof of the December 23rd deadline.

Richard Staudinger stated he received an additional letter from the Design
Eng)neer which did not address the problems other than an admission that the
pond was sodded.
After discussions with Mr. Guidry, it was learned that the City is in possession
of a 2,000 gallon a minute pump to remove water. It is a portable pump. Mr.
Sta~dinger suggested the approval of the Utility Department having the necessary
staff available and getting the pump tuned up so that it will be read when

commissioner Harmening was doubtful as to whether this is the appropriate time
to ~ncrease these fees. He pointed out that the recession is getting deeper and
thi§ may discourage development in the City. Not only does the developer have
to 3ay these fees, but he is also obliged to pay the County's impact fees and
the City's water and sewer impact fees. A tremendous amount of money is
invested before a permit can be secured, and then the cost of the permit can be
quite expensive.

Ms,Parker reported that there was a public hearing conducted by the County

Boynton Beach and the City of Greenacres. They tabled this issue until January
19th because there was a legal interpretation on a vote they had taken on
November 17th. What they believed applied only to the County may indeed apply
to ~he cities. The Commissioners unanimously rescinded their earlier motion of
November 17th to alleviate the situation and tabled it until January 19th. They
als~ approved a temporary Certificate of Need in the interim for Bethesda until
the end of January.

Comnissioner Harmening moved to table. Vice Mayor Matson seconded the motion

Comnissioner Harmening asked for an explanation on why Commissioner Walshak was
opposed to tabling this item.
Comnissioner Walshak explained that last month, the County Commission approved
ALS transport for Bethesda in Districts 5 and 7. One of the districts encom-
passes all of Boynton Beach. They did not know there was an exception pending
even though we followed the letter of the law in bringing it to the County
Comnission. They voted on it last month and gave the entire area to Bethesda.
Tod~y, after hearing the exception and being told by .their Counsel that Boynton
Beach and Greenacres were excepting, they rescinded the motion from last month.
Comnissioner Walshak believes the County Commission is leaning toward approving
ourlexception. They granted a temporary Certificate of Need to Bethesda
Ambplance to operate until this item reappears before the County Commission.

12. Proposed Resolution No, R92-222 Re: Authorize execution of lease
agreement between the City of Boynton Beach and CYNWYD Investment
for HRS office space
Attorney Cherof read Proposed Resolution No. Rg2-222 by title only:
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA,
AUTHORIZING EXECUTION OF A SHORT-TERM LEASE AGREEMENT BETWEEN CYNWYD IN-
VESTMENTS AND THE CITY OF BOYNTON BEACH; AND PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE.
Commissioner Walshak questioned how the City got to this point with the leases.
Ms. Parker explained that the Advisory Board on Children and Youth attempted to
secure one HRS staff person for Boynton Beach. They have been meeting with the
Maylor and James Hart, the HRS Acting District Administrator. At the meeting,
HRSI informed the City that HRS was in the process of developing a large center
fori the City. On Monday, November 30th, HRS went out for bid on 7,980 square
feelt within City limits. The space must be within the boundaries of Gateway
Boullevard south to Ocean Avenue, and I-g5 east to U.S. #1. It will be a ten-
yealr lease with an anticipated occupancy date of November 1, 1993. It will be a
fulil-service office with a staff of between twenty (20) and thirty (30) people.
In idiscussions regarding this long-term lease, a suggestion arose with regard to
theI fact that HRS would like to begin offering some services on the short term.
In Iorder to accomplish this quickly, they can enter an intergovernmental lease.
Since the City has no space to lease them, the idea arose for the City to lease
space at the Winn-Dixie center. HRS would enter into an intergovernmental
shcrt-term lease with the City. It would be a pass-through lease agreement.
The bids would then be back and HRS would be in the process of moving into the
larger office. The City will not be involved in that lease. This short-term
lease is only a one-year lease with six month renewal option for 2,680 square
feet.
Vice Mayor Matson questioned the City's liability if HRS decides to walk away
after the City has leased the space. Attorney Cherof explained that there is
the potential for liability under those circumstances.
Ms, Parker reported that when HRS requested space on a short-term basis,
di cussions took place about trying to get space for them at Poinciana School in
th. Community Life Center. That was not possible. A suggestion was made to put
th. m in the old school, but it was not an option with the School Board since
2,000 square feet of space is not available there. Since the City has no space
available, this proposal was the next option discussed. The motion being
re uested is for the City Manager, City Attorney, HRS and CYNWYD to work
together to reach a satisfactory lease agreement for all parties.
Co~missioner Walshak is opposed to the City becoming involved in the real estate
business. He feels the State of Florida should be able to rent space without
putting the City in the middle of it. Further, he is opposed to an HRS center
HINUTE$ - REGULAR CITY COHMIS$ION HEETING
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA
DECEMBER 15, 1992
being placed in that particular shopping center. Mayor Weiner stated that is an
arrangement between the property owner and HRS. She said the ten-year lease
arrangement has nothing to do with the City Commission. This proposal involves
a s~ggestion by HRS to try to facilitate the provision of the services HRS pro-
vides before the property can be put in condition to be a full-service HRS
off~ce. Mayor Weiner pointed out that 4,000 residents receive services from HRS
but~must travel twenty miles round trip for those services. She feels the
number of residents will be even greater if a satellite office is placed in this
City.
Comlnissioner Walshak remained opposed to supporting the execution of a lease
agreement between the City of Boynton Beach and CYNWYD Investment for office
space. He further stated he will never vote to put the City of Boynton Beach in
a position of shoring up the State of Florida. He feels HRS is capable of
getting offices on their own.
Vice Mayor Matson was uncomfortable with the liability involved with the lease.
AttOrney Cherof stated the liability issue could be focused on during nego-
tiations in an attempt to negate that possibility. Attorney Cherof stated a
negptiation can be done now and a final lease can be brought back for approval
at ~he next meeting.
Maybr weiner suggested amending the agenda item so that the City Attorney could
proceed with negotiations and bring back a lease at the next meeting.
Commissioner Walshak was opposed to this suggestion. Attorney Cherof suggested
a motion to delete Section 2. That would leave the negotiation section which is
Section 1.
vice Mayor Matson still had questions about why the City is involved in the
negotiations since the developer and HRS have already come to an agreement.
Steven Young, kl~naoer of the Leasing Program for HR$~ Dlstrlct IX~ explained
that when HRS leases under 3,000 square feet, the procedure takes six months.
This service would not be available until June or July. At that point, the
owner would probably not want to lease to HRS because the lease term would only
amount to approximately four or five months. If HRS enters into an intergovern-
mental lease, the procedure is almost instant. At this point in time, Mr.
Young could not say that HRS will eventually go into the Winn-Dixie space when
the bid is awarded. Nine people attended the prebid proposal meeting and it is
not known who those people represented.
Motion
Comnissioner HarmeninG moved to instruct the City Attorney to draft a lease with
the owner of the shopping center for 2,600 square feet $o that in the event HRS
does not sublease from the City, our lease with the owner of the shopping center
immediately becomes nullified. Vice Mayor Matson seconded the motion.
Com~nissioner Walshak again brought up the specific wording of the Resolution and
questioned whether this Resolution must be voted up or down. Attorney Cherof
advised that the Resolution must be addressed. It need not be adopted as writ-
ten:; The Resolution can be amended or adopted. Again, he pointed out that
deleting Section 2 of the Resolution would accomplish this.

Locations: 1104 South Seacrest Blvd,, 405 SE 23rdAvenue, and 411
SE 23rd Avenue
Scott Blasie made the presentation and explained that these are three separate
cases for three separate pieces of property. The owner of all three pieces of
property is Jerry Hyman. They required an Occupational License for rental units
andiwere, referred to Code Enforcement by the Occupational Licensing Division in
March. The properties were cited on March 31st, and came into compliance on
OctOber 7th. A $50 per day fine ran from August 17th until October 7th on all
of the cases. Upon recommendation from the City Attorney, the Code Enforcement
Board combined all cases together and reduced the fine to a total of $500.
~ Hyman addressed the Commission and reiterated the circumstances of the
violation. He explained that he was contacted by Joan Mormelo who told him that
it Would be necessary to inspect the premises. She outlined the procedure and
Mr. Hyman told her he could not be present for the inspection because of his
work schedule. He then received a summons to appear before the Code Enforcement

Board. He pleaded his case and was given thirty (30) days, to which he agreed.
Theiinspections were made and it was found that there were items which needed to
be taken care of. Mr. Hyman claims he thought the thirty days was to have the
inspections done. He did not realize that he needed to comply with Code within
those thirty days. Because he did not Comply within the time limit set, he
received a notice of a $50 per day fine on the units. After phoning the City,
and being advised that he must comply, he did come into compliance. He again
appeared before the Code Enforcement Board and explained that he misunderstood
the Order. The Code Enforcement Board reduced his fine to a total of $500 for
all:of the units.

nissioner Harmening pointed out that proposing a referendum question when the
result is unknown does not provide a good feeling in people's minds.

ts for the proposed high school site. Commissioner Harmening seconded the
motion which carried 3-1. (Commissioner Walshak cast the dissenting vote.)
Thei$1.56 million will be rounded out when it is placed on the ballot.
Ms.iParker stated that the second issue for consideration was the park sites for
Quantum Park and the Intracoastal.
Maypr Weiner was opposed to such a referendum at this point. She feels it is
toommuch money and the people should have an opportunity to consider this issue.
She|would prefer this go on the November ballot.
vice Mayor Matson pointed out that there was a decision by the Commission not to
do ~nything about this for at least six months.

D. Presentation on Network Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD) $~stem Lease
Wilfred Hawkins explained that representatives from Bell South were present to
exp)ain this system. This would involve an upgrading of equipment. It would
bring in new equipment to the City which will provide the latest dispatching and
recbrdkeeping capabilities available.
Mr.i McCaffrey introduced Kevin Hegebarth of Bell South Technologies in Atlanta,
Georgia. He has been working with Systems Concepts to develop this new
computer-aided dispatch system. Mr. McCaffrey explained that this presentation
I~INUTES - REGULAR CITY C~ISSIO~ #EETING
80YNTON BEACH, FLORIDA
DECE#BER 15, 1992
was~being made for informational purposes and no decision was expected this
evening. Mr. McCaffrey will return during the second meeting in January if this
information meets with Commission approval. At that time, he will seek approval
to move forward.
Kev
and
cur
~n Hegebarth~ is a Project Development Manager responsible for Southern Bell
Bell South's emergency services products including 911 service. They are
rently working with Systems Concepts to develop a new type of computer-aided
dispatch system which will aid public safety. Bell South is currently seeking a
willing 911 User to act as a trial site to test these new capabilities. Mr.
Heg~barth has been discussing the possibility of the City of Boynton Beach being
a model for the past two years.
Mr.)McCaffrey feels this is a unique opportunity for the City and the advantage
of ~ Network CAD is that Bell South has the capital outlay. Bell South or
Southern Bell will have the computers in their offices. They will provide the
terninals at our site. We will use the terminals paying only a flat monthly fee
for the lease of that equipment into a seven-year period. There is no capital
outlay or any up-front costs. The up-front cost would be for one additional
staff member to update the maps and the database. The impact on this fiscal
year would be one half of a Grade 32 to develop the maps needed for the CAD
system. These maps would benefit other departments throughout the City. The
final advantage of this program is this is a platform for other technology.
Mayor Weiner confirmed that this item will appear on the January 19th agenda.
WilTred Hawkins pointed out that the back-up information contains all of the
infPrmation necessary to make a determination. The Cost summary page breaks
down the costs involved in the lease and the advantage of the technology. This
is ip move into the twenty-first century and is a step in the right direction.
