BIDS
Demolition and clearing of unoccupied, substandard
buildinq structures in the community redevelopment area
Scott Miller described the bids for this demolition.
The Commission was given a bid tabulation sheet to
review. Nine are adversarial demolitions. The County
Housing and Community Development will not demolish
structures unless approval is obtained from the property
owners. Many of the owners involved in the adversarial
2

demolitions do not wish to give permission to have the
structures demolished and the lots cleared. These are
vacant, substandard structures. They have been before
the Board of Adjustment and Appeals and the owners have
been given their due rights. Some of these structures
have been vacant for many years and the City must take
positive action to clean up these areas.
Mr. Miller proposed that the City award the bids as pre-
sented and if the County razes the structures, the City
will not have to pay to have them razed. There are nine
structures on the list which the City does not have the
property owner approval to raze. These are the ones we
would like to raze and clear the lots at this time. The
cost will be assessed to the property owner. If the
owner decides not to pay, a lien will be filed. If the
lien is not paid, the City can then foreclose which
would provide the lots to the City for its In-Fill
Housing Program
Commissioner Artis questioned the cost to the homeowner.
Mr. Miller advised that the cost is between $1,800 and
$3,000. One listing on the sheet appears as $7,775
because it is actually two structures. These figures
include the demolition, clearing and hauling away.
Mr. Miller advised that the owners can set up a payment
plan. The costs need not be paid all at one time.
Commissioner Matson mentioned the problem between the
County and EPA regarding asbestos. Mr. Miller stated
that when these are awarded, the City will have to go
through the asbestos abatement on each one.
Vice Mayor Harmening suggested that if there are four or
more units, an asbestos survey is not necessary.
After a question from Commissioner Aguila, Mr. Miller
clarified that the price covers a group contract.
Commissioner Aguila wanted to know whether it would cost
the City additional dollars if the City must do the
other six structures. There will be no additional cost
and the contract is good for one year for these struc-
tures.
Mr. Don Jaeger clarified that four of the structures
would be under the asbestos abatement program. The
remainder are exempt because they are single-family.

PUBLIC HEARING
None
PUBLIC AUDIENCE
Mr. Dan Boyar, 712 SW 3rd Avenue, spoke about the problem of
nighttime lighting in the City; specifically, the lighting
on Congress Avenue. Mr. Boyar is a member of the
International Dark Sky Association. He read from an infor-
mation sheet titled, "We All Need Good Outdoor Nighttime
Lighting". This article suggested ways to save money and
energy through proper lighting.
Mr. Boyar stated that the light from the street lights is
misdirected throughout the City of Boynton Beach. It produ-
ces glare which decreases nighttime vision. It is a safety
haizard and a waste of energy. He requested the City to con-
tact FPL to adjust or shield the light downward onto the
ground.
Mayor Weiner asked Scott Miller to contact FPL to see if the
lights can be redirected. Commissioner Aguila suggested
that Mr. Boyar also contact FPL to make his case.
Mr. Ed Deutsch, of Quantum Corporate Park, informed the
Commission that most of his team was present in the audience
and could be questioned if necessary. He also complimented
the staff for their cooperation and background work and
completeness of all factors.
Mr. Thomas F. Corcoran, of 215 SW 3rd Street, had questions
regarding the CDD proposal. He is concerne~ with turning
over 143 acres to a developer where the taxes would not go
to the City any longer. He questioned what input the com-
munity would have. He wanted to know if the CDD could
expand without the approval of the City. He stated that he
would like for them to succeed, but he wants safeguards.
Mr. Bob Taylor, Vice President of Finance for Bethesda
Memorial Hospital and Bethesda Health Care Corporation
located at 2815 South Seacrest Boulevard, spoke in favor of
the proposed CDD. He expressed the strong support of
Bethesda Memorial and Bethesda Health Care Corporation for
the CDD and the passage of the Ordinance.
Commissioner Matson asked the Assistant City Manager, Carrie
Parker, to respond to Mr. Corcoran's questions. Regarding
4
MINUTES - REGULAR CITY COMMISSION MEETING
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA
JULY 2, 1991
the issue of taxes on the CDD, a correction is necessary in
the memor a ndum. The ta xes shown a re for the ent i re
City/County School Board. The City taxes are approximately
$1,800. The School Boa rd and the County will lose their
portions. With regard to whether or not the CDD can expand,
the outer boundaries are set, but the CDD can purchase addi-
tional properties within the boundaries. With regard to the
governing body which will be appointed by the owners, she
clarified that this will be set up much like the City's, so
that the property owners within the District would elect the
governing body of the CDD.
Attorney Cherof expanded on Ms. Parker's answer. The
Statute provides that the District can expand or contract in
size, but this is the same procedure being used except that
the petitioner becomes the District Board itself as opposed
to the developer. This is still processed by the City.
Ms. Doris Pastl, who owns a business at 639 E. Ocean Avenue,
represented the Boynton Beach Chamber of Commerce. The
Chamber strongly supports Quantum Corporate Park and the
CDD.
Mr. Harry Marcus, of 650 Horizons East, Boynton Beach,
called to the Commission's attention the fact that the
amount of money involved in this project begins with a $60
million debt which is owed by Quantum to Chase Manhattan
Bank for which they have a mortgage. If the CDD is
approved, they propose to float a revenue bond in excess of
$45 million. Based on this, they would not get the full
amount of $45 million because of expenses. They probably
would also offer some discounts. They may receive approxi-
mately $40 million. Approximately $10 million would come
off this amount as a~ reserve for the payment of interest and
principal for a period of two years for this issue. The
balance would then probably go to Chase Manhattan Bank in
the amount of approximately $32 million. The liability of
Quantum, or whoever the property owners are, would be
approximately $30 million. They will owe to the District,
in the nature of future assessments, $45 million. The debt
will be increased from $60 million to $75 million. This
factor should be considered with respect to liability.
Commissioner Matson asked a representative of Quantum
COrporate Park to respond to Mr. Marcus.
Mr. Hank Fishkind, of 122424 Research Parkway, Orlando,
Florida, responded on behalf of Quantum. He said that Mr.
Marcus is essentially correct. The total aggregate debt
would go up. That is, the design is to spread out the debt
service payments to be able to reduce the capital cost of
the land. The way to do this is to take out the tax exempt

BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA

bonds, pay down .the mortgage and stretch out the payments
over twenty years. This is what allows Quantum to have a
reduction in the price of the land which is the ultimate
goal. They want to make Quantum Corporate Park competitive
in its corporate market. This is the purpose of this exer-
cise and in his opinion, they will succeed in doing this at
approximately $2.50 per square foot to those who buy in.
WITH NO FURTHER QUESTIONS OR STATEMENTS, THE PUBLIC AUDIENCE
WAS CLOSED.
DEVELOPMENT PLANS
ao
Site plan time extension - Long Warehouse and Light
Industrial Complex (Northwest corner of Congress Avenue
and SW 30th Avenue)
Mr. Chris Cutro explained that Mr. Douglas F. Long is
requesting the City Commission to grant a six-month
extension to this site plan. The request was received
prior to the expiration date. There are no concurrency
issues involved. The Planning Department has no objec-
tion to a six-month extension.
Scott Miller pointed out that there are legal areas
that need to be explained. The Code does not provide
for an extension of site plans. This has been done
previously; however, the Code specifically states that
if the building permit has been issued and construction
not commenced within one year from the date of approval
by the City Commission, the approval of the site plan
by the Commission shall terminate and become null and
void.
Mot i on
Vice Mayor Harmening moved to deny the extension.
Discussion ensued regarding whether a motion was necessary.
Commissioner Aguila asked whether Mr. Long has made any
progress on the site. Mr. Don Jaeger responded that no
plans have been filed for a building permit and the plans
have not as yet been rectified through the site plan process.
Commissioner Artis seconded the motion which carried 5-0.

A. Ordinances - 2nd Reading - PUBLIC HEARING
Proposed Ordinance No. 091-40 RE: Rezone
Planning Area 1.a from R-1AA (Single Family
Residential) to R-lA (Single Family Residential)
6
MINUTES - REGULAR CITY COMMISSION MEETING
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA
JULY 2, 1991
(Lots in the Lakeside Gardens Subdivision, south
and east of Dimick Road)
Attorney Cherof read Proposed Ordinance No. 091-40 by
title only:
"AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA, REZONING A CERTAIN PARCEL OF
LAND WITHIN THE CITY OF BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA FROM
R-1AA (SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL) TO R-lA,
(SINGLE-FAMILY RESIDENTIAL); PROVIDING FOR APPROPRIATE
NOTATIONS ON THE OFFICIAL ZONING MAP; PROVIDING A
CONFLICTS CLAUSE, A SEVERABILITY CLAUSE, AUTHORITY TO
CODIFY, AND AN EFFECTIVE DATE."
Mr. Cutro explained the staff report. There was discussion
at the Planning and Zoning Board Meeting regarding the R-1AA
and the R-lA zoning. This information was provided to the
Commission. The properties involved will not be substan-
tially affected by the change of zone. Most of them will
meet the R-1AA or the R-lA; however, some will not meet
either of these categories. The Planning and Zoning Board
recommends denial of this rezoning and recommended a text
change be initiated by the City Commission.
Mr. Mike Mrotek, of 2624 Lake Drive North, Lakeside Gardens,
appeared before the Planning and Zoning Board Meeting to
discuss this rezoning. They found the argument satisfactory
and denied the proposal. He explained that the lots on the
north side of Dimick Road are not in the proposed rezoning
proposal. Also the rezoning from R-1AA to R-lA is a ploy.
The land being rezoned is built up with the exception of two
50' wide pieces of property. Even reducing this to R-lA
does not put those lots within the structure of the land
usage permitted.
Mr. Mrotek presented a letter and a petition which included
the people present in the audience and those unable to
attend the meeting, showing their opposition to the
rezoning. Mr. Mrotek requested the Commission to deny the
proposal to rezone.
Mayor Weiner asked Mr. Cutro about the land north of Dimick.
Mr. Cutro stated that this land is not part of this request.
He further stated that there are a series of recommendations
that say land usage should be construed as if certain pro-
posals are made. This is the first time he has ever seen a
plan laid out like this. The Planning Department will be
dealing with these individually in the future asking for
authority to go ahead and remove some or change them into
policies within the Plan. He is quite uncomfortable with
them. Separate notifications will be sent on each of them.
7
MINUTES - REGULAR CITY COMMISSION MEETING
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA
JULY 2, 1991
A woman in the audience stated that most of the community
had not received notices of the Planning and Zoning Meeting
or the City Commission Meeting and wanted to know why. As
far as the Planning Department was concerned, everyone had
been notified. There could be gaps in the tax records. He
suggested Mr. Mrotek get together with him and all of the
records for the community will be reviewed and updated. He
apologized for any oversights.
According to Mr. Cutro, when the Comprehensive Plan was ori-
ginally done, notifications were not sent out. A newspaper
notification was used. Commissioner Aguila said that when
the Comprehensive Plan was adjusted, a series of things were
dealt with by notification through the newspaper. This is
what the law required at the time. The City was affected as
a whole and it was cost prohibitive to notify each homeowner
by certified mail. Mr. Cutro will use the petition sub-
mitted to adjust records.

Mr. Cutro stated that the Planning Department and the
Planning and Zoning Board recommends approval of this
Ordinance. However, he wanted the Commission to know that
he feels in some cases, care must be used in eliminating the
depth of the Commercial on Federal Highway. There are non-
conforming buildings there and if the City expects them to
conform, they have to be given some land which they can con-
vert either into parking or additional building.

Mr. Cutro explained the request for rezoning. The Planning
and Zoning Board recommends denial and suggested that the
City initiate a land use amendment back to Local Retail
Commercial and a text amendment to delete the recommen-
dation. It is important to keep the C-3 zoning on this par-
cel because Bernard's is planning to expand. Also, the
owner of Via Lago has indicated that he will not need that
piece of property. This now will allow a buffer.
Warren Beyer, Attorney for Mr. & Mrs. Perron, of 2000 Glades
Road, Boca Raton, appeared to speak against the Ordinance.
The property in question provides a buffer along Federal
Highway and the residential areas behind it. He urged the
Commissioners to reject this Ordinance.

OF LAND WITHIN THE CITY OF BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA

PROVIDING A CONFLICTS CLAUSE, A SEVERABILITY
CLAUSE, AUTHORITY TO CODIFY; AND AN EFFECTIVE DATE."
Mr. Cutro explained that this property is on the south side
of Benvenuto's Restaurant and includes the Seaview Trailer
Park. The Planning and Zoning Board unanimously recommended
denial of this proposal. The recommendation was based on
the assumption that there would be an assembly of land.
These parcels are split up and there are legal complica-
tions. Most likely, this land will never be assembled. The
trailer park is in an irrevocable trust and switching it to
R-3 gives the owner no advantage. The R-3 is up against a
single-family neighborhood to the south. Allowing this R-3
even at only 2-story, could affect the land value on the
single-family side. For all of these reasons, the Planning
and Zoning Board recommended denial. Staff agrees. He
requested authorization to initiate a land use amendment
back to Local Retail Commercial and Low-Density Residential
and a text amendment.
Mr. Cutro asked for direction from the City Commission to
design a trailer district. Commissioner Aguila would like
to tackle that at another time.

On the top of Page 2, Paragraph 3, three lines
down, change to read, "inter-related community".
e
On Page 3, Section 3, two lines down, the word
"general" should be deleted and the citation
following Florida Statutes should read 190.011 and
190. 012. ( Only Attorney Cher of ' s copy read
incorrectly. )
e
On Page 1, in the fourth "WI~EREAS" clause, the
second line should read, "...Section 109.005(1)(e),
Florida Statutes, and the comments and reports pre-
sented at public hearing...".
Commissioner Aguila discussed with the Commission the fact
that the people at Quantum would not be opposed to the City
appointing two of the five individuals who will sit on the
Board of Supervisors. He would like the Commission to study
this possibility.
Mayor Weiner questioned the length of the service period on
this Board. After some discussion, a time period of ninety
days was proven to be the number. Mr. Deutsch addressed the
Commission stating that Quantum agrees that whenever the
Board changes, two members would be appointed by the City.
Mayor Weiner stated that Mr. Deutsch could not make such a
guarantee because when all parcels are sold, Quantum will no
longer have control. He stated that he would have to check
the legality of such a guarantee. Attorney Cherof did not
think it was possible for Mr. Deutsch to make such a pro-
mise.

SCott Miller had comments relative to the CDD. He feels
policy decisions need to be made. The policy decisions are:
1) being the creation of another governmental entity within
the corporate limits of the City; and 2) providing access to
taxes and finances to assist private development. These two
issues are administrative policy decisions. The
Commissioners will have to make these decisions. Mr.
Miller reviewed all of the material. He is satisfied that
the CDD concept will not harm the City. He stated that
there would be no control of future Commissions. A new
Commission could decide to take this over. W~en he looks at
the facts and figures at this time, he does not believe the
15
MINUTES - REGULAR CITY COMMISSION MEETING
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA
JULY 2, 1991
creation of the CDD and implementation of the financing
vehicle proposed will accomplish the objective that Quantum
Corporate Park wants. He doesn't believe this can happen.
Mayor Weiner pointed out to the Commission that she doesn't
see the point of "keeping this alive". Quantum has had a
public hearing, a public workshop and a public audience.
They have submitted a mound of reports that have been read
and reviewed by staff. "Keeping this alive" may just be
leading the developer on. This is unfair to all parties
involved. This should be voted on up or down, not for the
purpose of keeping it alive.
Commissioner Aguila clarified that he does not want to lead
the developer on. He is trying to find a way of making this
work. The economy of Boynton Beach needs a boost. He is
hopeful that he can be convinced within the next two weeks.
If he had to vote tonight for the final time, he would vote
against the Ordinance. He is not convinced today that this
can work. He is hopeful that this is the kind of creative
boost that is necessary to get this project going. He wants
to be sure this is the right thing to do. This is the
reason for the motion he made.
Vice Mayor Harmening stated that in the securities business,
there is a smell test, and this does not pass the smell
test.
Mayor Weiner stated that the Commission was given a petition
with six articles which the City must approve. First of
all, all statements contained within the petition are true
and correct. As regards the actual construction costs of
the infrastructure and the soft costs related thereto, staff
reports that the actual copies of invoices were submitted
for some of the costs, although not for all. This is just
the beginning of what we can verify is true.
She continued stating that the petition sets forth a con-
cern, "whether Quantum CDD will be a financially viable
entity and will it have sufficient revenues for operating
and maintaining its infrastructure." The current tax rolls
show the owner of all the property within the proposed
District to be Deutsch, Ireland, Melvin Simon and Associates
partnership. Because the partnership is the only property
owner in the proposed District, they will be responsible for
the annual debt service payment of the District and will
provide the sole source of revenue for the District until
various parcels are sold to various businesses. The finan-
cial strength of the partnership is a vital concern
regarding the ability to pay debt service in the financial
design of the District. Therefore, a request was made to
16
MINUTES - REGULAR CITY COMMISSION MEETING
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA
JULY 2, 1991
review the financial statements of the partnership and
Quantum Associates. The petitioners were very cooperative
with City Staff in providing the City's external Auditor,
Ernst and Young, along with City staff, various financial
documents to review. Melvin Simon and Associates provided a
complied financial statement as of 12/31/90. Mr. Ireland's
statement was dated 3/01/90 and Edward Deutsch's financial
statement was dated as of 6/30/90. Mr. Ireland's and
Quantum's statement were individually prepared by the par-
ties themselves and two of the statements had no outside
verification, but an independent Certified Public Account
had attached his compilation report. Due to the unaudited
nature of the statements, no verification as to the accuracy
of their financial statements could be provided to the City
Commission other than the bank documentation.
Mayor Weiner stated that Ernst and Young looked over the
information that was provided by Quantum. She met with Paul
Bremer, the Accountant. He did not do a certified audit of
the books and records of this Association. He did only a
cursory examination. Mayor Weiner asked him if he could
make a recommendation based on the examination he did. He
could not make a statement to the Commission as to the truth
and accuracy of the statements. Mayor Weiner cannot say
that all the statements are true and accurate.
The staff report says, "in summary, the petitioners have
financial resources. However, there are no financial
guarantees that can be provided to the City Commission by
staff regarding the success or failure of this project."
It is Mayor Weiner's feeling that if staff cannot guarantee
it with all of their information, she would not guarantee it
either.
She stated that the City is also supposed to attest that the
land area in the proposed District is of sufficient size,
sufficiently compact, and sufficiently contiguous to be
developable as one functional related community. She stated
that size, compact and contiguous are easy. Sufficiently is
a word that lawyers put in to make more work for other
lawyers. There is no way the City Commission can determine
whether the land in Quantum Park which is left is suf-
ficiently contiguous. The word sufficiently will have to be
ruled upon by a higher authority than this Commission.
However, it will not get to a higher authority unless this
Commission signs off on this petition. She is not willing
to sign off on this petition because the Commission can sign
off, the State can deny the petition and the City will
remain with a CDD with no funding ability.
17

BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA
JULY 2, 1991
Mayor Weiner continued with Section 4 wherein it states that
the creation of the District is the best alternative
available for delivering the community development services
and facilities to the Quantum Corporate Park. In her opi-
nion, the property owners association now delivers every
service to the Park. However, it cannot issue bonds.
Mayor Weiner also stated that the petition sets forth
various costs and benefits in establishing the CDD to enti-
ties involved based on various assumptions. One cost that
was not listed under the City section is the impact of
transferring the property to district ownership. The
District is proposing to acquire approximately 163 acres or
approximately 28% of the total land area of 54 acres to be
covered by the District. Since the District will be a
governmental entity, the property under District would be
exempt from City ad valorem taxes. The number included in
the staff report for ad valorem taxes is $6,618 which has
been changed to $1,800. Mayor Weiner feels that giving up
advalorem taxes is a very dangerous precedent. She stated
that she was not elected to give up advalorem taxes on land
within the City limits. She will not sign off on this.
The petitioner submitted two economic reports stating the
impact of the sales and provided two absorption schedules
utilizing various assumptions including reduced land prices.
The two reports used different absorption rates and assump-
tions to reach the same conclusion: that is, that reduced
land prices will accelerate the sale of property within the
proposed District. No staff comment was offered as these
are projections which may or may not occur depending on the
overall economic conditions and the validity of the various
assumptions. Mayor Weiner agrees with remarks by staff.
Quantum Park is subject to the same economic conditions as
the rest of us. When times change and the economy picks up,
so will Quantum Park. She is not convinced that Quantum is
helping by reducing the land cost up front. She is also not
convinced that anyone who comes in to purchase property in
the Park doesn't know that whatever comes off up front, will
not be tacked on behind. If a purchaser will get $2.50 off
per square foot up front, he must understand that he will be
assessed for the amount of the bond issue plus interest.
Someone will have to pay it off and those somebodies are the
purchasers in the Park.
Regarding policy decisions this Commission must make, Mayor
Weiner stated that she is philosophically adverse to the
Commission establishing a governmental entity within the
City over which the City would have no control. The CDD
would have the power to tax, assess and borrow without any
limits placed on it. She also does not approve of providing
18
MINUTES - REGULAR CITY COMMISSION MEETING
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA
JULY 2, 1991
access to tax exempt financing to assist private develop-
ment. In the future, other developers will look to the City
to provide the same access to public funds that are proposed
for Quantum Park. If a future Commission was to take over
this CDD, the City would have to provide all the money and
maintenance necessary for this takeover.
For all of the reasons stated, Mayor Weiner will vote
against this project. Mayor Weiner repeated that a motion
had been made and seconded. A vote was polled:
Commissioner Aguila - Aye
Commissioner Artis - Aye
Commissioner Matson - Aye
Mayor Weiner - Nay
Vice Mayor Harmening - Nay
The motion carried 3-2. (Mayor Weiner and Vice Mayor

Commissioner Aguila is concerned about the level of direc-
tion we have given these people regarding their first phase.
How will they determine their fees? Commissioner Aguila
doesn't have a problem with the contract. Charlie~
Frederick responded to Commissioner Aguila's question. They
are doing only the master planning. The actual design and
construction drawings will not take place unless we
authorize it. They are aware that there is no guarantee
they will get that work. We are free to use another firm if
we so choose, commissioner Aguila asked Mr. Frederick what
we have told the design firms we would like to see.
Basically, Commissioner Aguila was concerned about the fees.
He had trouble understanding how they put together fees
without really knowing where they are going with this pro-
ject. Mr. Frederick explained that the fees are based on
the number of hours staff puts into the program. A great
deal of time is spent in communications between the
Architect and the City, and the citizens. He explained that
no preconceived ideas were given to them with regard to
th!ese sites. Commissioner Aguila was concerned with the
architectural firm coming back to the City at a later date
for additional fees. Mr. Frederick pointed out that the
number of sketches and concepts required by the City has
been delineated in the scope of the Master Plan.

City Attorney Cherof pointed out that there were several
changes negotiated. There were changes in language and
several paragraphs were deleted. Attorney Cherof has not
received back that version. He requested that approval be
subject to his review of the changes and his initialling of
them.
Commissioner Aguila referred to Johnnetta Broomfield's
memorandum dated June 27, 1991. He asked for clarification
of the section dealing with services and compensation. He
wanted to be certain that the construction documents are
enough to get a building permit from the City of Boynton
Beach. Also, regarding Site Observation/Visits,
Commissioner Aguila asked that the words "as requested by
the City", be added next to the $60/hr/visit. In Article
1.3.3, Commissioner Aguila asked that the words, "at no
additional cost", be added at the end.
Johnnetta Broomfield
Aguila's requests:
stated that
regarding Commissioner
1. the last item is at "no additional cost";
2. the $60 per hour is at the City's request; and
e
there will be construction drawings, approved by
the Building Department for construction.
However, he pointed out that it does not say it on paper.
Commissioner Aguila requested that four elevations be sub-
mitted. He wants to see all four sides of every building.
Vice Mayor Harmening pointed out that it says high effi-
ciency air conditioning. He wants a specific number.
Commissioner Aguila questioned the energy-efficient refri-
gerator. He wanted the size clarified. Ms. Broomfield said
this will be determined when they begin looking at the size
of the house on the construction drawings. Commissioner
Aguila advised her that this decision has nothing to do with
the size of the room. It should be the program's decision.
Regarding the automatic sprinkler system, Commissioner
Aguila requested that wells and well water be used, not City
water.
He again pointed out that many of these are assumptions and
he would like them clearly stated.

Attorney Cherof will incorporate all of these items. If
there are any problems, rather than approve them he will
bring them back to the next City Commission Meeting.
Vice Mayor Ha rmening pointed out that "broom-finished"
sidewalks, driveways, etc. lend themselves to a great deal
of mildew. He feels that if this is going to be broom
finished, it should be spelled out very meticulously as to
how the city would like it done. Vice Mayor Harmening would
prefer a trowel finish.

Main Street Program for the Downtown area (Community
Redevelopment District) of the City of Boynton Beach
Mr. Miller explained his memorandum. The application pro-
cess is quite lengthy and he feels we don't have the time
now to get this organized this year. However, the Main
Street Program is built on four concepts that have a proven
track record in cities throughout the United States, and if
we decide to go with this program, there are several recom-
mendations he will make.
Messrs. Cai Cearley and Craig Grabeel attended the Main
Street Program on the West Coast. Ca 1 Cearley,
President of Prime Bank and Craig Grabeel approached
the podium. They explained that the memorandum sub
mitted covers most of the program.
Commissioner Aguila sensed from the two facilitators from
the Main Street Program, that the City didn't stand much of
a chance getting any grant money from the Main Street
Program. He then asked if our money and energy would be
wasted if we couldn't get any grant money. Mr. Grabeel
responded that this is not a grant program. It is primarily
technical assistance. In conversations with the Main Street
Coordinator, they are very enthusiastic about the level of
interest that has been demonstrated. Until this year, the
focus was on historical preservation. They concede that we
don't have a lot of old buildings which is typical of
Main Street. However, this year, under the new coor-
dinator, Bob Prescott, they are attempting to expand the
focus to include economic revitalization. Mr. Prescott is
willing to support any city wanting to adopt the Main Street
Program regardless of whether or not they are accepted. The
city could draw on this resource. It is possible that only
two cities are applying and they will be looking for a
25

third. He asked if they would approve an application that
might not meet the criteria. Mr. Prescott was not sure, but
pointed out that the a lot could hinge on the number of
applicants.
Mr. Cearley pointed out that the Workshop was very infor-
mative and wished the Commission and CRAB had been in atten-
dance. The nature of the program is quite detailed and the
people present were very enthusiastic. There were many suc-
cess stories. Some of the stories were from towns which are
landlocked. They don't have the water like Boynton has.
These landlocked towns were redeveloped.
Mr. Cearley stated that Boynton Beach already has a CRA, a
CRAB, TIF, design guidelines and a Downtown Business
Association. Everything is in place. We need to focus
and put someone in charge. They have all the materials to
put together a Main Street Program. The Main Street people
will help Boynton Beach regardless of whether or not we use
program.
Mr. Cearley and Mr. Grabeel recommended forming a 501(c)(3)
corporation, which is a tax-free corporation. Contributions
made to the corporation are tax deductible. They recommend
that the CRAB be appointed as the initial Board of Directors
of the Downtown Redevelopment Authority with the addition of
two or three business people from the private sector. The
TIF money is available. No money would have to come from
the budget. They would need to hire a Downtown Coordinator.
There is an experienced Coordinator available, known by
Scott Miller.
Mr. Cearley pointed out that this is not a quick-fix
program. It takes about three years before anything hap-
pens. He asked the City Commission for permission to go
forward.
Commissioner Aguila mentioned the 'fact that Mr. Cearley had
been thrown out of some of the businesses and so he
questioned Cal Cearley about his sense of the feeling in the
downtown community. He feels that these individuals down-
town are not aware of the process of Codes and why there are
certain requirements and procedures to follow. The people
are frustrated. Some of them want to make minor repairs and
suddenly there are many other Codes they need to follow.
They get angry with the City, the Chamber of Commerce or
anyone else who might want to help. In time, they could be
won over especially if we are successful with the guidelines
regarding urban versus suburban code revision. A most
important point brought out at the Workshop was that typi-
cally there will be 20% who will be in favor immediately,
26
MINUTES - REGULAR CITY COMMISSION MEETING
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA
JULY 2, 1991
20% against it immediately and 60% on the fence. It is our
responsibility to get them off the fence and onto our side.
Vice Mayor }{armening asked who the person is being proposed
as Director. Ca l Cearley did not know the name of the indi-
vidual. Mr. Miller brought up the name to Mr. Cearley, but
he has not spoken with the individual so that he did not
feel he was at liberty to mention the name. Mr. Miller said
there are other people throughout the State who could fill
this job.
The election process to pick a manager is complex. The
Board would have written guidelines required to interview
someone qualified for that particular job.
Vice Mayor Harmening is against this program because of a
previous program similar to this. $75,000 was granted and
no results came from it.
Scott Miller stated that the funds come from TIF. He feels
that the salary for the individual should be looked at and
hopes that spa ce could be dona ted through the tax exempt
corporation. You don't want to put someone under the City
Manager. You want the business community to feel that they
had a say about who the individual is. Unfortunately, right
now, there is a lot of disillusionment in the downtown area.
Mr. Miller would like to break that barrier and have a
working relationship with the business community. He feels
that if this individual is not a City employee, but is
employed by the downtown area, this individual would be more
acceptable.
Mr. Cearley feels we need to focus on what we have now and
go forward on this. Even if the City Commission elects not
to authorize this, he will keep coming back. He thinks the
City wants this and pledged to watch every dollar.
Commissioner Matson stated that she loves this City and the
Workshop shows that there are a lot of businesses interested
along with the private sector. There is a lot of energy.
It is her feeling that this is a wonderful opportunity and
the time for the program is now.
Mayor Weiner wanted clarification on the time period
involved in the contract. Cal Cearley stated that this is a
three-year commitment to develop a program to revitalize
downtown. She asked if this is a three-year commitment to
pay the salary of a person who is not under the control of
the City. Cal Cearley stated that it would be under the
control of the CRA and the CRAB along with two or three mem-
bers of the private sector, which would be the Board of
27

Directors of the Downtown Redevelopment Authority, a tax
exempt corporation.
Vice Mayor Harmening would like to see the City reimbursed
the $158,000 that went into such programs out of TIF before
the City goes any further.
Mr. Grabeel stated that in the budget, there are four areas
that may not be funded by in-kind pledges, but it does not
suggest that the City must provide those funds. They can be
provided by private donors or foundations by gifts to the
501(c)(3). It could be argued that the City has already
made a substantial fiscal commitment to the program. He
suggested that others go for the training to get a feel for
what the program can do.
Mayor Weiner wanted to know if we contract with the person
to be the project director, can the CRA still fire that per-
son. The answer to that question was yes and Mr. Cearley
explained that the Downtown Redevelopment Authority runs the
volunteer group. This does not mean that the Authority runs
the managers. She also questioned who would be in charge of
this person on a daily basis. The CRA would oversee this
person, but the Downtown Redevelopment Authority or the CRAB
could be charged with this responsibility
Mayor Weiner is in favor of going ahead with this program,
bUt wants to make sure that everything is clear to the mem-
bers of the community who sit as the CRA exactly what the
commitment will be, how long it will be for, and exactly
what the contract will say about hiring and firing and what
rights they will have.
Scott Miller stated that they wanted to get some direction
from the City Commission before a lot of the work was done.
These individuals gathered a great deal of information and
discussed it with Mr. Miller and need direction on which way
to proceed. The bottom line is funding and commitment.
Mayor Weiner pointed out that the Commission has not as yet
seen the budget and how much TIF money is available, if any.
Mr. Cearley sa id that they would like the Commission's
authorization to move forward and develop a program and come
back with all information in place and a budget set up.

NEW BUSINESS
A. Items for discussion requested by Mayor Arline Weiner:
1. Sketches for Proposed Water Tower - Conrad Pickel
Mayor Weiner explained that Mr. Conrad Pickel approached her
with a suggestion to beautify the proposed water tower. We
already have some money committed in the project budget
toward the construction of a new water tower. When Mr.
Pickel approached Mayor Weiner, he was informed that the
first thing to be determined is whether or not it would be
legal to add private money to the public money that will be
used for the construction. Attorney Cherof is researching
this matter and will report back to the Commission.
Paul Pickel, son of Conrad, who resides at 7777 20th Street
in Vero Beach, accompanied his father to the meeting. He
appeared to present this idea. He explained that his father
wanted to try to convince the Commission to think in terms
of art when building the new water tower. In thinking about
art, the tower could be clad in glass or mosiac and could
become a landmark in this area.
Conrad Pickel, who resides in Leisureville, said that his
business is to beautify churches and such. He is a fanatic
about beauty. He feels that life without beauty is just an
existence. Boynton Beach is a very nice town in which to
relax , but there is no beauty. It would be worthwhile to
add beauty.
Commissioner Aguila asked if we are making any commitments
at this point. We are not. He wanted to be sure that we
can be proud of what winds up on the water tower and would
want to see exactly what is being proposed. He suggested
that this tower will be imposed on all of the citizens and
much care must be taken.
Commissioner Matson questioned whether or not City money
would be used to maintain the tower. Mayor Weiner said that
City money should not maintain it, but there should be an
on-going committee to raise the maintenance fees each year.
However, at this point, nothing can be done until a legal
ruling is determined by the City Attorney.
Mayor Weiner advised Mr. Pickel that our Attorney will
research the question of private funding and the Commission

2. Task Force on the Elderly
Mayor Weiner said that a large part of this City is made up
of elderly people. Their needs must be addressed by City
government. In order to look into the needs of the elderly,
Mayor Weiner asked that the Commission consider establishing
a Task Force on the Elderly along the same lines as the City
Task Force on Children and Youth, and report back to the
Commission. She suggested that it be unlimited in numbers
so that expert advice will be forthcoming and asked for
approval to have the City Attorney draft a resolution
setting up a Task Force on the Elderly.
Mot i on
Commissioner Aguila moved to direct the City Attorney to
draft a resolution setting up a Task Force on the Elderly.
Vice Mayor Harmening seconded the motion which carried 5-0.
Mr. Cherof will use the same structure which was used for
the Task Force on Children and Youth.
CITY MANAGER' S REPORT
Scott Miller pointed out the September 17th meeting of the
City Commission falls on the end of the Jewish holiday. He
checked back records for what was done. In the past, the
meeting was deferred until the next night and this is his
proposal for that meeting.
Mot i on
Vice Mayor Harmening moved to change the date of the meeting
from Tuesday, September 17th to Thursday, September 19,
1991. Commissioner Artis seconded the motion which carried
5-0.
Noise Abatement
Commissioner Artis requested information on the enforcement
of the noise abatement ordinance. She explained there was
excessive noise on the Poinciana School grounds. The group
said they had a permit from the City to use the property.
Scott Miller requested that Chief Ed Hillery respond. Chief
Hillery said that this was the first he has heard about the
incident. He explained that a decibel meter is available
for measuring the noise level. The Police will respond to a
noise complaint, but does not operate the decibel meter. If
the Police respond to a noise complaint, they will ask them
30

to curtail it. Commissioner Artis Stated that the complaint
was responded to by Police.
Scott Miller stated that the City does not give permits for
the use of County property. Chief Hillery said he would
have to look into the complaint, but it is possible that a
permit was issued by the Board of Education. Even in such a
case, the Police would ask the people to curtail the noise.
If such a situation occurs within the City of Boynton Beach,
it is enforceable.
Permit to Use County Property
Commissioner Artis stated that this subject was covered in
the response to her question on noise abatement.

Change Order 923 for Fire Station 93 - Change in

BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA
JULY 2, 1991
Vice Mayor Harmening moved to approve Change Order 923,
which was seconded by Commissioner Aguila. The motion
carried 5-0.
Request authorization to formally bid the Aquifer
Storage & Recovery (ASR) Well Project
Mr. Miller advised that the City is ready to go out to bid
on the ASR. Mr. Guidry explained that this is significant
in the City's program. He stated that part of our consump-
tive use permit requires that we negotiate an inter-local
agreement with Lake Worth Drainage District. ASR is a
culmination of approximately three years of effort with
South Florida Water Management District and Lake Worth
Drainage District. It is a trade-off in that the City is
doing its part in real conservation further than just imple-
menting inverted rate structures. The City is proud of
this. Boynton Beach is the only utility in this area doing
this.
Vice Mayor Harmening moved to grant authorization which was
seconded by Commissioner Aguila. The motion carried 5-0.
Request authorization to acquire a vacant parcel
located on Mission Hill Road for a new sewage pump sta-
tion for the City's sewage collection system
Mr. Guidry explained that this is one of three lift stations
for replacement. They are designed, permitted and in
January received approval from the Commission to negotiate a
price at $32,000 with the owner. The value of the property
was appraised at $39,995. We had to negotiate up to a price
of $36,000. It is an ejector station. It is operating well
beyond its range. The existing station is in the right-of-
way.
Vice Mayor Harmening moved to authorize the acquisition of
the vacant parcel located on Mission Hill Road which was
seconded by Commissioner Aguila. The motion carried 5-0.
Fe
Authorization to utilize revenue generated from the
employee's vending machines for appropriation towards
an employee picnic
Mr. Miller explained that there are vending machines in City
buildings some of which are employee only and others are for
public use. He is requesting permission to use the proceeds
from the "employee only" vending machines for such things as
the holiday party and employee picnic. The employee picnic
is scheduled for July 27th. The use of these funds would be
very helpful for things such as this. This amounts to
approximately $1,500 which now goes in the General Fund.

G. Palm Beach County Municipal League Report
Mayor Weiner explained that the Municipal League has
requested that the thirty-seven cities in the League put a
item in their agendas for a report on the Municipal League's
doings for the month. The Countywide Planning Council and
the Municipal League have agreed on the proper role of the
Countywide Planning Council. A few items have been left
open. Commissioner Karen Marcus has decided rather than
have the fighting continue, she voted to have this moved
forward to the County Commission.
With regard to the motion that was passed, the word
"conceptually" was stricken from the motion before it was
passed.
The local option gas tax was taken up at that meeting and it
has passed. It will be 75/25 starting in 1996.
H. Report to the Commission on the We Care Health Fair
This Health Fair was held under the sponsorship of the City
and Bethesda Hospital. ~Laura Widmer did a great deal of
work on this Fair.
Ms. Widmer reported that the greatest crowd was there at
8:30 a.m. There was an estimated 500 to 700 people there
throughout the day. They screened 162 people for cho-
lesterol and 157 for diabetes. There were hearing and
vision screenings. There were approximately twenty-four
activities altogether. There was a great turnout. There
were so many people for the hearing testing that they had to
distribute tickets and people will be able to go back on
Monday. Both the 'City and Bethesda were extremely pleased
with the turnout. Bethesda handed out a marketing survey to
the people in attendance and found very positive results.
They look forward to doing this again in the future.
Mayor Weiner commended staff for the work and effort they
put into making the Health Fa ir a success. She hopes
Bethesda will continue this in the future and make it an
annual event. Mayor Weiner thanked Laura Widmer for the
publicity throughout the City. Mayor Weiner would like to
bring more programs like this to our citizens without any
cost to the City.
Scott Miller said that Laura did an outstanding job as did
Wilfred Hawkins and Melanie Green. Scott Miller said that
33

certificates of appreciation will be sent. Mayor Weiner
would like a letter to go to Mr. Hill, President of Bethesda
and asked Laura to suggest any other Vice Presidents. Scott
Miller feels that Bob Taylor and Linda Sharp should get let-
ters. Mayor Weiner also asked that certificates be awarded
to the members of Bethesda Hospital who gave their time to
work at the Fair. This could be done before a Commission
meeting.
Commissioner Matson thanked the Commission and Laura Widmer
on behalf of the children who participated in the Special
Olympics.

Bill ~25 - Scott Miller sent a letter and got no response.
Mr. Miller felt that $31,000 was more than enough and he
sent Oscar Vagi a letter saying he was not going to honor
this, but he was welcome to discuss the matter with Mr.
Miller. He will get only $31,000.
Commissioner Aguila moved to approve the Consent Agenda
which was seconded by Commissioner Matson. The motion
carried 5-0.
Mayor Weiner returned to the Municipal report. She stated
that the Municipal League is requesting a minimum of fifteen
members of the League to pledge a minimum of $1,000 each to
carry out a four-day RUDAT program in March, 1991. She is
opposed but asked for some direction from Commissioner
Aguila. It is his opinion that RUDAT is good, but he is
also opposed to financial involvement at this time.
Mot i on
Commissioner Aguila moved to not approve this request for
$1,000 which was seconded by Vice Mayor Harmening. The
motion carried 5-0.
OTHER
Commissioner Aguila asked that the members of the Commission
not rush to make motions before everyone has had an oppor-
tunity to discuss the subject. He said that there have been
times, even while still discussing, when someone rushes in
to make a motion because they feel strongly about the sub-
ject. He feels when you have reached the end of a
discussion, then it is appropriate to make a motion.
Vice Mayor Harmening stated that the motion generally prece-
des the discussion. Attorney Cherof stated that under
Robert's Rules, the motion should precede the discussion.
He explained that this is a rule of procedure and need not
apply all of the time, but the motion should be made before
the discussion. Mayor Weiner stated that she will be sure
that everyone has an opportunity to speak.
