ANNOUNCEMENTS
1. Proclamation - Pornography Awareness Week -
October 28 - November 4, 1990
City Attorney Cherof read this Proclamation in its entirety.
The Mayor indicated the Proclamation would be signed and
forwarded to the appropriate parties. Mrs. Royce, who was
interested in this Proclamation, had indicated to
Commissioner Weiner that white ribbons would be worn during
Pornography Awareness Week to increase awareness.
2. The Mayor announced that the first meeting in November
will be held on Wednesday, November 7, 1990, due to Election
Day.
3. Comments on Recent Gunshot Victim
Mayor Moore commented on a recent tragedy involving the
shooting of a young man in the community. The victim, Larry
Jackson, appeared to be a fine young man. The Mayor and
several Commissioners expressed concern for the family but
felt vigilante actions were not to be condoned.
4. Enlarged Photograph of Ezell Hester, Jr.
Wilda Searcy, 402 N.E. 13th Ave., unveiled an enlarged
portrait of former Mayor Ezell Hester, Jr. which will be
mounted in the Boynton Beach Public Library. Ms. Searcy
felt Mr. Hester was a fine role model for young people.
The City Manager was asked to see that the portrait of King
Tut was also framed for the Library. It was noted that
Mayor Moore had personally paid $134.94 to have the portrait
enlarged. The Commission was agreeable to his being reim-
bursed.
PRESENTATION
1. Neighborhood Housing Service
Calvin Cearley, Prime Bank
Mr. Cearley, who had served on the Board of Directors of the
Neighborhood Housing Service in West Palm Beach for three
years, explained the rehabilitation of homes that had taken
place in that City. Mr. Cearley hoped it would be possible
to start a Neighborhood ~ousing Service in Boynton Beach.
The program would provide for a revolving loan fund from
which low-interest loans and sometimes no-interest loans are
2

BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA
OCTOBER 16, 1990
made to people to buy homes in areas that are declining so
that there will be rehabilitation and revitalization of the
neighborhoods. The program also provides for rehabilitation
of businesses in declining neighborhoods.
It was explained that the Neighborhood Housing Service would
have a 15 member Board of Directors. Eight of those persons
would live in the target area. Five would be business
leaders and two would be City officials. The program would
require the City to make a $75,000 commitment to the
operating budget for the first year. NRC in Washington
would add $35,000 to that for the first year's budget. The
program also required that the City sponsoring the program,
provide for a $300,000 revolving loan fund. This wouldn't
have to be put up the first year. The revolving loan fund
would provide for home improvement loans and for home
purchases to people that would not normally qualify for con-
ventional loans. Mr. Cearley further explained the speci-
fics of the program.
Mr. Cearley stated several community leaders had expressed
interest in the program but did not want it to interfere
with programs currently offered through the City's Community
Improvement Dept. None of the funds allocated for Ms.
Broomfield's programs should be steered toward this program.
The areas the Neighborhood Housing Service would operate in
would~be areas the City does not operate in.
The City Manager indicated if the City participated in this
program, it would have to take money away from other
programs. Further discussion took place about funds needed
to organize and operate the program and how long it would
take to get the program "up and running." Mr. Cearley made
remarks about NHS, Federal, State and United Way grants that
are available for programs like this.
The Mayor asked the City Manager to provide a feasibility
report and recommendation for the Commission. Commissioner
Weiner commended Mr. Cearley for efforts he has made to
improve Boynton Beach.
2. Fire Prevention Month Presentation
Commissioner Olenik reported one of the City's Fire
Prevention Officers, Chris Wandell, had been involved in
putting together a "rap video" for school children on fire
safety. The video was viewed by the audience.
II. BIDS
None.

BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA
OCTOBER 16, 1990
After some discussion with Mayor O'Connell, Mayor Moore
called for a vote of all those in favor of the motion. The
motion failed 2-3. Mayor Moore, Commissioner Artis and
Commissioner Olenik voted against the motion.
IV. PUBLIC AUDIENCE
Bob Fauser, 125 S.E. 6th Ave. commented on a recent incident
involving a Paramedic for Delray Beach. A newspaper article
on October 13, 1990 indicated that on at least five
occasions the Paramedic had provided drugs to dancers at the
Showtime Lounge in exchange for sexual favors. Mr. Fauser
thought a problem with criminal activity exists at this
Lounge and he explained. He wanted to know how many arrests
had been made at Showtime for prostitution or drug dealing.
The Mayor asked if Mr. Fauser had ever witnessed criminal
activity. The Mayor thought this could amount to hearsay
based on a newspaper article. Discussion ensued.
Police Chief Hillery was asked to provide the Commission
with a report on the question raised by Mr. Fauser. Mr.
Fauser commented on the "Florida RICO Statute" which says
if there is a continued pattern of racketeering activity at
an establishment, you can proceed on the racketeering
statutes into such areas as civil forfeiture of a business.
Mr. Fauser indicated he was commenting based on what the
newspaper reports said.
Former Mayor Ralph Marchese, 1901 Roma Way commended the
Police Dept. for their speedy response when someone tried to
break into his home on the evening of October 3, 1990. The
quick and professional response provided a positive impact
on his neighborhood and made residents feel more secure.

III. PUBLIC HEARING
None.
McDonald's request for variance from City's Code to permit
continuance of flying McDonald's corporate flag
This item was moved up on the Agenda. Mayor Moore indicated
a representative was present from McDonald's to request a
waiver which would allow McDonald's to fly the McDonald's
corporate flag under the American flag. Brief discussion
took place regarding the Commission's intent when it said
"no banners." One Commissioner remarked this would be
covered in the new Sign Ordinance.
Commissioner Olenik moved to grant this variance. Vice
Mayor Wische seconded the motion which carried 5-0.
Oceanfront Park Beach Decals -
Town of Ocean Ridge - Reconsideration
Mr. Daniel O'Connell, Mayor of Ocean Ridge explained Ocean
Ridge policed the public beach and answered 378 calls last
year. Ocean Ridge clears the beach, and locks the restrooms
every evening. Several times during the night, officers
check the buildings for break-ins. A four wheel vehicle had
been loaned to Boynton Beach lifeguards for two months.
Each evening Boynton Beach lifeguards bring their portable
phones into the Ocean Ridge Police Dept. for recharging,
etc.
Mayor O'Connell reported on numerous elderly and infirm
Ocean Ridge residents who would like to be able to purchase
the parking stickers. Probably 50 to 100 decals would be
needed. He asked the Commission to reconsider its former
decision.
Commissioner Weiner moved to grant Oceanfront Decals to the
Town of Ocean Ridge at the same price that Boynton Beach
residents pay. Vice Mayor Wische seconded the motion.
Discussion took place on the services provided Boynton Beach
by Ocean Ridge at no cost. Some Commissioners felt if
Boynton Beach "opened the door" to Ocean Ridge, they would
have to open it up to residents west of Congress Ave. as
well. Other remarks were made about the bridge situation,
the need for the cities to work in harmony and the Utilities
Service Tax which Ocean Ridge wants to charge Ocean Ridge
residents for water provided by Boynton Beach. One
Commissioner pointed out that Ocean Ridge residents were
free to use the beach, even if they were unable to park in
Boynton Beach's parking lot.

explained that as a result of the modification of the shared
parking analysis, they would have a surplus of 147 parking
spaces. Mr. Livingston agreed with staff comments with the
exception of one condition which was to provide a drainage
swale to the center of the existing parking lot. The appli-
cant didn't want to modify the existing parking lot and a
satisfactory alternative had been agreed upon with Vincent
Finizio, Administrative Coordinator of Engineering. Plans
were viewed.
Commissioner Olenik moved to approve both of these Consent
Agenda items. Vice Mayor Wische seconded the motion which
carried 5-0.

Motion failed 2-3.
Discussion took place among the Commissioners about the vote
that had just taken place and whether the Commissioners
clearly understood what was involved. By the vote just
taken, fire inspection fees would still exist, but they had
eliminated the cap. The Mayor wanted to have the original
Ordinance setting forth the Fire Inspection Fees (approved
two months ago) brought up at the next meeting for recon-
sideration. City Manager Miller explained that the
Ordinance before the Commission would place a maximum cap on
Category 3, namely, assembly/business/warehouse type facili-
ties. Without this amendment there is no maximum. Remarks
were made about being able to justify the cost of fire pre-
vention services.
In view of the fact that some of the Commissioners had
misunderstood, Vice Mayor Wische moved to reconsider this
proposed Ordinance. Commissioner Weiner seconded the motion
which carried 5-0.

carried 5-0.
The Commissioners opposed the County "sticking its nose"
into the City's business in this particular area.
Numbering System of Resolutions and Ordinances
Remarks were made about the need to change the system for
numbering Resolutions and Ordinances. The Mayor felt the
system for Resolutions was becoming cumbersome. He
suggested Resolutions simply be recorded numerically. The
first Resolution in 1990 could have been numbered R-90-1,
the second, R-90-2, etc. The City Manager indicated he
would bring back a recommendation in this regard. The other
Commissioners were agreeable.

Proposed Resolution No. 90-AAAAAAA
Re: Agreement between the City and Tradewinds Development
Corporation regarding 3.5 acre park site
City Attorney Cherof read proposed Resolution No. 90-AAAAAAA
by caption only:
"A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA, AUTHORIZING AND DIRECTING THE
MAYOR AND CITY CLERK TO EXECUTE A CERTAIN AGREEMENT
BETWEEN THE CITY OF BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA AND
TRADEWINDS DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION REGARDING THE
DEVELOPMENT OF 3.5 ACRE PARK SITE; A COPY OF SAID
AGREEMENT IS ATTACHED HERETO AS EXHIBIT "A": AND
PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE."
The City Manager indicated staff recommended approval. City
Attorney Cherof explained the Preliminary Plat for this pro-
perty was approved subject to and conditioned upon this
Agreement which dealt with the off-site improvements with
respect to recreation and park facilities. It also dealt
with the treatment of recreation and park facilities within
the parameters of the Preliminary Plat. The Agreement pro-
vided that the City and Tradewinds set the fair market value
of one acre within the boundaries at $75,000. It also pro-
vided that Tradewinds convey to the City, by special
Warranty Deed, an additional 3.5 acres not on that site.
That would satisfy the requirements for certain park dedica-
tions within the PUD. Additionally, the parties agreed that
Tradewinds would pay to the City the fair market value of
11
MINUTES - REGULAR CITY COMMISSION
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA
OCTOBER 16, 1990
one acre of land which would be done in the form of improve-
ments to a proposed park located on the 3.5 acres. That
park was not yet planned, but was the subject matter of
future plans. The City would provide specific elements of
design plan to Tradewinds and designate specific items on
that plan for Tradewinds to fulfill for the agreed value of
$75,000. In the event the City failed to generate park
development plans within three years, Tradewinds was to pay
the City $60,000 in full satisfaction of that requirement in
lieu of the land dedication.
There were a number of procedural points that still needed
to be accomplished. These included the responsibility of
Tradewinds to establish the existence of the criteria for
50% credit for open space. That was to be followed by an
action of the Commission adopting those findings that would
entitle Tradewinds to that particular credit. It also
required that in the event Tradewinds should fail to
establish that, Tradewinds would be required to provide from
the bond money, the equivalent of 4.5 acres of property
which constituted 50% of the credit. Tradewinds would also
provide the City surety performance funds as provided for in
Appendix C, Article VIII, Section 7 of the Code of
Ordinances. The bond would initially include the fair
market value of the property and all costs for improvements
as shown on the Preliminary Plat, but would not initially
include the estimated value of the five basic park elements.
At the time those were established, the surety bond would be
adjusted accordingly to reflect the value. None of the
bonds or sureties posted could be released or reduced
without prior written consent of the City. It also provided
that there be a determination by staff that the 3.5 acres
was suitable for future park development without the
necessity of expenditures for site development. Some of
that determination, but not all of it, had already been
made. There would be a specific date set by the City
Commission for commencement of development of park and
recreational facilities.
With respect to the balance of the 6 acres, the City and
developer would agree to and submit a Stipulation to the
previous Stipulation and Settlement Order reflecting a
transfer of zoning density of 45 units to the Woolbright
Place PUD or to the remaining balance of the six acre par-
cel.
Discussion took place over this feature. Some Commissioners
had trouble with the concept of 45 units on 2.5 acres.
Michael Morton commented that in the parcel of land along
the railroad tracks, Tradewinds had agreed to limit the
height of those units to one story. Therefore, only 16
12
MINUTES - REGULAR CITY COMMISSION
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA
OCTOBER 16, 1990
duplex units would fit on that parcel. The Agreement now
provided latitude for Tradewinds to take density units and
increase the PUD, (which was still not anywhere near its
maximum), by those additional units or Tradewinds could do
what was allowable on the remaining 2.5 acres in the form of
multi-family or whatever would fit into two story con-
figuration. Mr. Morton stated if at a later date, the deve-
loper, City Commission and the members of the adjoining
Leisureville community didn't agree on what should go on
those two acres, they would have the opportunity of putting
in the residential units that the property now called for.
The excess densities were being incorporated into the PUD.
Commissioner Olenik asked staff what the current zoning was
for that 2.5 acres off Boynton Beach Blvd. Tambri Heyden,
Interim Planning Director was not really familiar with the
issue that was being addressed. Commissioner Olenik
expressed concern that the Interim Planning Director had not
been included in meetings where these arrangements were
arrived at. Commissioner Olenik thought the Commission had
indicated it wanted an Agreement that only dealt with the
park dedication issue. He thought this "smelled of spot
zoning." Commissioner Olenik didn't think it was right to
change this by means of an Agreement and without going
through the normal channels.
Mr. Morton responded to Commissioner Olenik's comments and
stated the Parks Dept. and Planning Dept. had asked for this
arrangement. Tradewinds did not request it. If the City
wanted Tradewinds to go back to the old Master Plan that had
been approved, he stated he would be happy to do so.
City Manager Miller remarked there had been discussions on
previous occasions, involving Charles Frederick, Tim Cannon
and Jim Golden. What the City was initially concerned with
was taking the five parcels throughout the Woolbright PUD
which really wouldn't prove useful scattered about. Staff
felt that would simply result in maintenance of properties
by the City. Staff requested the possibility of using the
parcel off of Boynton Beach Blvd. Mr. Miller stated ini-
tially the 3.5 acres was discussed. Mr. Morton had planned
to work out something with the Dick Webber Center on ½ acre.
The two acres on Boynton Beach Blvd. would have been commer-
cial. The City Manager recalled Mr. Morton had mentioned
(if the commercial didn't get through) density type zoning.
However, Mr. Miller pointed out you would have to go through
the normal process to do that.
Mr. Morton felt this was holding things up. Mr. Miller
stated the Preliminary Plat was approved conditioned upon an
Agreement on the parks which had not taken place yet. Mr.
13
MINUTES - REGULAR CITY COMMISSION
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA
OCTOBER 16, 1990
Miller questioned whether or not legally, the Agreement
could contain a provision relative to conditional type
zoning.
Mayor Moore suggested going back to the idea of five smaller
scattered park parcels instead, rather than hold this up.
If something could be changed in the future, fine.
Further complex discussion took place on the sequence of
events, density, zoning, the park land and the significance
of the $75,000. Mr. Morton referred to the Administrative
Coordinator of Engineering not feeling 3.5 acres was enough
but that it would call for 4.5 acres. Even though Mr.
Morton differed with Mr. Finizio, rather than continue to
"go through these battles on a weekly basis~' Tradewinds
agreed to pay the $75,000 in cash with $75,000 worth of cer-
tifiable improvements to the park. If the City couldn't
come up with a use for the park within three years,
Tradewinds would pay $60,000 cash in lieu of the work. Mr.
Morton further commented on the proposed transfer of density
credits into either the PUD or the 2 acres.
Mr. Morton stated they were not asking to put 22 units on
any parcel of land. They were protecting the total amount in
density that the 6 acre parcel allows, to be used in either
the PUD or on the remaining 2 acres. If they were to end up
building units on the 2 acres, they could probably build 16
units on the two acres and no more. The balance of those
units would be incorporated into the PUD. Mr. Morton
realized they couldn't build more than what's allowable on
the plan without coming back to the Commission and asking
for it. It was not Tradewinds intent to build 45 units on 2
acres.
Discussion took place on why it was to be included in the
Agreement. Commissioner Olenik didn't think the Commission
could legally change the zoning by means of this Agreement.
City Attorney Cherof stated that was why this provision was
not in one of the "you shall do it today provisions" but was
something that would occur in the future. Commissioner
Olenik didn't think the present Commission should "tie the
hands" of future City Commissions by rezoning the land in
this Agreement. City Attorney Cherof stated it required the
Commission specifically to seek an amendment to the
Settlement and Stipulation Agreement. That would be the
only vehicle for doing it. Mr. Cherof remarked the intent
of the provision was to go back and to treat this subject
matter as though it had been on the table at the time the
Stipulation and Settlement Agreement were entered in Circuit
Court. Mr. Cherof stated this was something that possibly
should have been contemplated at that time but was not.

Further remarks were made by Mr. Morton about the City
wanting a park that could be utilized by the Lake Boynton
Estates area.
Technical discussion took place on possibly amending the
proposed Agreement and various density figures per acre were
considered. Units per acre in the PUD as addressed in the
Stipulation and Settlement Agreement, were taken into con-
sideration. If they went back to the original plan, Mr.
Morton noted they would have to move S.W. 8th Street back
into Mrs. Robert's backyard. The discussion became more
complicated. City Attorney Cherof stated he could come up
with alternate language for Section G of the Agreement. Mr.
Cherof suggested language with respect to the zoning density
of 45 units, stating it shall be allocated with a maximum of
16 units on the balance of the six acre parcel from which
the 3.5 acres is being conveyed. The remaining 29 units
would be contained within the boundaries of the Woolbright
Place PUD. Mr. Cherof pointed out the latter part would
require an amendment through the Court to the Settlement
Stipulation.
Mr. Morton stated he would reduce the density of the overall
PUD, if it would help. In the "tail" along the railroad
track, he would agree to only 16 one story units. The total
amount in th~ PUD would be 640. It would therefore be a
total of 656. Mr. Morton would agree to only put 14 units
on the 2~ acres on Boynton Beach Blvd., in the event that
the City doesn't allow any other zoning commensurate with
the adjoining property owners' wishes. Mr. Cherof
interjected the Agreement could be amended and this would go
under Section 4.C. Section 5.G. would be deleted. Mr.
Morton stated he was agreeable to this amendment.
The proposal was evaluated and various opinions were
expressed. Some Commissioners found the issue had not only
become complicated but confusing as well. Commissioner
Olenik remarked that this Agreement had grown from an
Agreement on the park to include changes that dealt with
zoning. He asked why the Planning Dept. had not been
involved in this review. Lengthy discussion took place.
Mr. Morton stated if the City was not comfortable with the
park improvements being done, then Tradewinds would pay the
City the $75,000 cash. The City could then build its own
park.
Commissioner Weiner remarked that the Commission did not
wish to hold this up. They wanted to handle this expedi-
tiously as ordered by the Court. In order to clarify the
complex issues, she requested a workshop meeting the next
day.

Comments were offered by Charles Frederick, Director of
Recreation & Parks. Mr. Frederick stated the City origi-
nallY had wanted one contiguous 4½ acre site on the PUD to
service both Tradewinds and Lake Boynton Estates. Instead
when the Settlement Agreement finally came about, Tradewinds
went back to the concept of either numerous small parcels of
park land or 3½ acres off-site. Mr. Frederick felt that of
the two choices, the 3½ acres was the only choice. There
had been the ability to buy additional adjacent property to
expand it to 4½ acres. At least that way, there would be a
useable neighborhood park that could be developed. Mr.
Frederick stated he didn't have any thing to do with the
density.
Motion
Vice Mayor Wische moved to delete "G" completely and insert
"4.C." whereby the City will permit 14 units in the 2½ acres
of the 6 acre parcel and 16 units in the "tail" along the
railroad tracks in the PUD. It is the City's option to
either get $75,000 in cash or in building.
Commissioner Olenik asked if the 2½ acre parcel is now at
the density level that is currently zoned, why include it in
the Agreement. Mr. Morton replied it could be taken out of
the Agreement. Commissioner Olenik stated he didn't even
want to deal with the other parcel in this Agreement. The
City could deal with that rezoning normally later on. Mr.
Morton said that was fine.
Mr. Morton reiterated the "tail" would only contain 16
units. The PUD would contain 640 units. This would result
in a total of 656. The remaining 3½ acres would not be
addressed in the Agreement. It would have to comply with
zoning that can be obtained.
Of the six acres, Mr. Morton said 3.5 acres would be park.
One-half acre would be for the Dick Webber Child Abuse
Center and two acres would be for future use.
Discussion took place on whether there would be an
infrastructure impact by placing the 40 additional units
into the main part of the PUD. Mr. Morton stated it
wouldn't have any impact. Tambri Heyden remarked the
revised Master Plan allowed 640 units. If the numbers are
increased, she felt there would be an impact on water, sewer
and traffic. Mr. Morton stated they were basically trading
density and impacts from one parcel to the other. Other
remarks were made.

Amendment to Motion
Vice Mayor Wische indicated he wished to amend his motion to
the effect that the City would only accept $75,000 cash.
Mr. Morton was agreeable but if Tradewinds built the Child
Abuse Center and the addition for Parks Dept. use,
Tradewinds would like to get credit for that against the
cash. Mr. Frederick stated when the proposal for the Child
Abuse Center was brought forward by Mr. Morton, they did not
discuss credits in terms of whether the Recreation & Parks
Dept. would be using the space or not. If Mr. Frederick was
being asked if the City should give Tradewinds credit for
expanding the building for the Recreation Dept's use, he was
not prepared to immediately respond. Mr. Morton stated he
would leave it to the City's option.
Mr. Miller stated he would rather see cash. If the City
wanted to make an option, he was sure Mr. Morton was willing
to discuss it.
Secondary Motion
Commissioner Weiner repeated she would like to see the
Agreement in proper order. She moved to hold a special
meeting to clarify the issues. The Mayor agreed the issues
had become confused. He didn't feel this was any way to
conduct negotiations. The Mayor passed the gavel and
seconded Commissioner Weiner's motion.
Clarification and Vote on First Motion
Vice Mayor Wische pointed out he already had a motion on the
floor. Commissioner Olenik seconded Vice Mayor Wische's
previous motion. Vice Mayor Wische stated they should have
a ten minute break during which the City Attorney could for-
mulate the verbiage for the two Agreement sections that are
being changed. Vice Mayor Wische stated the 2½ acres would
comply with whatever zoning there would be. There would be
16 units in the "tail," and 640 in the PUD resulting in a
total of 656. There would be $75,000 in cash or at the
City's option, building construction. Mayor Moore called
for a vote on Vice Mayor Wische's motion. The motion failed
2-3. Mayor Moore, Commissioner Weiner and Commissioner
Olenik voted against the motion.
Mr. Morton remarked that at the last Commission meeting the
Preliminary Plat for the PUD had been approved. Under the
Code, Tradewinds could not get their letter of technical
compliance until the surety was established. Tradewinds had
agreed to wait until this meeting to receive the surety
amounts. Mr. Morton felt a certain amount of urgency
existed.
17

City Attorney Cherof remarked the proper motion would be
to direct the City Attorney to incorporate the changes into
the body of the Agreement and bring it back to the City
Commission as soon as possible. The Mayor agreed and added
he would call a special meeting, if necessary.
The City Manager remarked he would like to hear what was
missing on the surety issue. Mr. Finizio stated if
Tradewinds wanted to move their Preliminary Plat forward (it
had been conditionally approved) to the Final Plat stage,
then they needed to "nix all these orbiting mini agreements"
that they were trying to reach and get down to the basics so
he could move the Plat forward. Mr. Finizio stated if the
City was going to give Mr. Morton $320,000 worth of half
credit on land for five amenities that Mr. Morton was not
indicating he would provide at a future date on the site
plan, then Mr. Finizio thought Mr. Morton should provide
$320,000 worth of surety to equal the credit he would get,
until he provides the plans in conjunction with the
recreation. Mr. Finizio remarked that is what the Code
says. Technical discussion ensued. Mr. Morton thought this
issue had been settled already.
City Manager Miller remarked the language was already in the
Agreement relative to the five park elements. Mr. Finizio
responded he was talking about the half credits. If Mr.
Morton didn't provide five park elements, he would have to
give the City many more acres of land, worth $75,000 an acre
each. bit. Finizio felt the City was giving Mr. Morton
"credit for nothing" right now. Mr. Morton said they were
providing the park elements in the site plan to be sub-
mitted. Mr. Miller pointed out the City didn't presently
know what the five elements would be. The City Manager
explained by this Agreement, the value of the improvements
would be established as a condition of the site plan appro-
val. At that time, the actual park and recreation improve-
ments are determined. A final value for the improvements
shall be made and the bonds adjusted. Mr. Finizio didn't
think that was what the Subdivision and Platting Regulations
provided for. Discussion ensued.
Mr. Morton stated that at a meeting the previous month, the
Commission had voted not to bond those five elements. Mr.
Morton thought Mr. Finizio was "beating a dead horse." Mr.
Morton stated the five elements would be bonded when
Tradewinds submits the site plan for the PUD. They had
agreed to bond the $75,000 at 110% which would come to
$82,000. In order to receive technical compliance, Mr.
Morton stated Tradewinds only had to post the sureties for
Final Plat approval. He felt all the sureties had been pro-
vided and Tradewinds was looking for their letter of tech-
nical compliance. If the Commission approved the pa~k
Agreement at this meeting, Mr. Morton felt Mr. Fin~zlo was
18

bound to issue Tradewinds a letter of technical compliance.
Mr. Finizio responded that was not accurate. Mr. Finizio
indicated Tradewinds needed to conform with the Code of
Ordinances and the Subdivision and Platting Regulations
state all required improvements shall be bonded with surety.
Mr. Finizio stated Tradewinds could provide surety in the
amount of the credit the City was giving. When Tradewinds
finally provided the site plans, the City could return the
remainder of the monies.
The Mayor declared a ten minute recess at 8:25 P.M. so that
the attorneys could talk. When the meeting resumed at 8:35
P.M., the Mayor chose to proceed with the Agenda so the
attorneys would have a few more minutes to work.

City Attorney Cherof reiterated there was an apparent incon-
sistency between the permitted uses of this property under

MINUTES - REGULAR CITY COMa~ISSION

OCTOBER 16, 1990
the current Comprehensive Plan and under a Final Judgement
entered in May, 1973. Mr. Cherof had researched this and
been in contact with the Dept. of Community Affairs and the
Florida League of Cities to see if their staff lawyers had
any experience with situations like this where there is a
conflict between a Court Order and a Comprehensive Plan.
It appeared there was no precedent in this regard. Mr.
Cherof had reviewed Florida case law with respect to the
enforcability of the Final Judgement and could find no case
that would hold that our Comprehensive Plan acts to vacate
the Final Judgement or to render it unenforcable. Mr.
Cherof's review of the documents indicated it was con-
templated that there would be changes in the City as time
went on, but it did not deal specifically with the
Comprehensive Plan or with zoning changes in that regard.
Mr. Cherof had reviewed an opinion by previous City Attorney
Rea with respect to the rights of the City and the rights of
the property owner and Mr. Cherof did not know the basis for
that opinion and did not agree with it.
Mr. Cherof's four-part suggestion for resolving this matter
follows verbatim:
Cherof:
"I think that the City should take action
to acknowledge the existence of an
apparently enforcable Final Judgement dated
May 10, 1973. I think the City Commission
should take no further action to rezone the
property to conform with the Comp. Plan. I
think that the Comp. Plan should be amended
at the next available opportunity, to
acknowledge the existence of the Final
Judgement and to treat the property con-
sistent therewith. And I think that this
subject matter about the conflict between
Comp. Plans and Court Orders is something
that is not only of interest to us, but to
many other municipalities. I would request
your authorization to seek a, legal opinion
from the Attorney General, seeking guidance
with respect to that type of conflict. And
I also would like to ask for the assistance
of the Florida League of Cities in joining
with that request."
Mr. Cherof later stated:
"As between the City and this particular
developer, I think his rights are fixed
20

under the Final Judgement. And between the
City and the balance of the public that
looks to the Comp. Plan for guidance, I
think he would have a correction."
Attorney Ron Kolins, representing some of the properties
involved, stated he only took issue with Mr. Cherof's point
~3 which dealt with amending the Comprehensive Plan at the
next normal opportunity. Attorney Kolins felt this amounted
to an administrative error. By the City Commission
acknowleding that an error was made, he believed all that
needed to be done was for the Commission to vote to instruct
staff to reflect in the Comprehensive Plan the correct
designation for the property. He pointed out that the
public relies on the Comprehensive Plan to tell them the
development potential on various properties. If this error
were to continue, people could be misled. Should his client
wish to develop the property, it might appear to some per-
sons that its development might be "facially" inconsistent
with the Comprehensive Plan.
Mr. Cherof explained that the DCA would require the City to
"jump through" all of the ordinary hoops to correct this.
Attorney Kolins was agreeable to Mr. Cherof's recommended
solution but he asked that City staff be instructed to put
in the Comprehensive Plan and in the Land Use Map, a note
concerning this property, to the effect that the
Comprehensive Plan was erroneously amended and that another
amendment will be undertaken to correct it. Mr. Cherof was
agreeable to Mr. Kolins' suggestion.
Tambri Heyden, Interim Planning Director pointed out the
next date to amend the Comprehensive Plan would be April 1,
1991. Mr. Cherof had been advised by the DCA that they
recommend going through the ordinary process of amendment
which is at one of two times each year.
Legal discussion ensued between the attorneys. The Mayor
pointed out an opinion from the Attorney General was not
really binding. The Mayor felt there were certain similari-
ties between this situation and the Tradewinds situation.
Mr. Cherof stated the City would be looking to the Attorney
General to address the subject of a Final Judgement issued
many years ago vs. the evolving Comprehensive Plans of
cities in general. Discussion took place regarding the fact
that attorneys, including the Attorney General, frequently
differ in their legal opinions.
Attorney Howard Osterman, a resident of Hunters Run stated
he and others were not willing to accept the premise that
the Final Judgement of the Court in 1973 was absolutely
21
MINUTES - REGULAR CITY COMMISSION
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA
OCTOBER 16, 1990
binding on considerations of the Comprehensive Plan.
Changes in development circumstances and views take place in
an 18 year period. Mr. Osterman thought the issues either
needed to be resolved by going back through the
Comprehensive Plan procedure or by taking a declaratory
action of some sort to find out the answer as to which is
supreme over the other. Other remarks were made by Mr.
Osterman about allowing the public opportunity to have input
into the decision making process if that decision, once
made, is to be reversed. Mr. Osterman did not assume an
error had been made in the Comprehensive Plan.
Mayor Moore did not think it was the recommendation of the
City Attorney to open up the whole Comprehensive Plan public
hearing process again. The Mayor again drew similarities to
the Tradewinds situation and indicated he didn't want to see
the City led down the same path a second time.
Mr. Kolins responded to the remarks made by Mr. Osterman.
Mr. Kolins didn't think it was up to the public to determine
what happens here. It was a legal question of what the law
required. Mr. Kolins remarked on the impact this has on the
property and the fact that no one will buy the property if
there appears to be a conflict between the zoning and the
Comprehensive Plan designation. This made it impossible to
finance anything on the property because no bank would lend
money where there was a "cloud" of inconsistency. Mr.
Kolins thought this destroyed the value of the property and
was basically "a lawsuit waiting to happen."
The following verbatim remarks were made:
Kolins:
I suggest the following plan of action for
you to consider. It is largely consistent
with Mr. Cherof. one, his first point, and
I agree with it. Have the City acknowledge
the Court Order. Secondly, his point
again, take no action to rezone this pro-
perty. Third, amend the Comprehensive Plan
as Mr. Cherof favors. But, four, please
note immediately in the Comprehensive Plan
and the Land Use Map that you are doing
that so there is no confusion or cloud on
the property. Finally, as to the Attorney
General's opinion. Whether you do or you
do not seek that opinion is entirely up to
yourselves, but it must be recognized, if
you decide to do it, that that is an act
independent of this particular issue before
you. It is simply a request for an opinion
on a general question that you have deve-
loped some interest in because of what has

happened here. But that request should not
in any way be tied into.., nor should my
client's property's fate in anyway await
the outcome of that opinion. That is my
suggestion and I thank you very much for
listening to it.
Thank you. Is this Commission ready to act
on this thing and accept the recommen-
dation, I believe, of the City Attorney?
The only thing... I can't disagree with the
other element which is to make some nota-
tion on the Plan immediately.
You still feel it would be in the general
public interests to attempt to obtain an
opinion from the Attorney General that in
this instance where.., is the question
going to be predicated where an existing
Court Order says the land would be used in
accordance with the directions contained in
that Judgement? And then a City, through
its Comprehensive Plan amendment went in
contravention to the manner in which that
Court Order said which was going to take
precedence?
It's going to be a generic inquiry and my
understanding is that if we don't file for
that opinion, the League of Cities will.
Okay. But it doesn't in any way bind or
impose...
...that this man couldn't come in tomorrow
with a site plan or something to show the
development that he wanted to do in accor-
dance with the terms of the parameters of
the Court Order which is still in
existence.
The first four elements of the recommen-
dation are... (sounds like I'm happy with).
Okay. ~nat's the pleasure of the Council?
Does anybody want to make a motion to
accept the recommendation of the five point
recommendation of our City Attorney?

Weiner:
Well the first four elements are the same
as the ones that you recommended. It is
the fifth element.., right? That is the
one that you do not recommend, but that Mr.
Kolins does...
Cherof:
His fifth element was to acknowledge your
action tonight and to have a notation made
on the Comp. Plan and the Zoning Map. I
think that's a proper request and I would
include that in my recommendation.
Mayor:
If this Commission acknowledges that we are
bound by a Court Order and that it applies
to this property and that it be attached to
our existing Comp. Plan, even though it
contravenes the contents of the existing
Court Order and that we are in the process
of straightening that out.
The five point recommendation was evaluated. Mr. Kolins and
Mr. Cherof were in agreement on the five point recommen-
dation. Discussion took place regarding the response that
might be received from the Attorney General. Mr. Kolins
pointed out if the opinion said something contrary to what
they anticipated, it would not be binding. If the
Commission used that opinion to change the Comprehensive
Plan again, Mr. Kolins stated he would recommend his client
sue the City "in a heartbeat."
Motion
Commissioner Weiner moved that the Commission go along with
Mr. Cherof's five point recommendation. Vice Mayor Wische
seconded the motion. The Mayor pointed out this included
obtaining the advisory opinion from the Attorney General
which would not be binding except it could open up an avenue
to go back to Court to ask the Judge to change his opinio~
(if construction hadn't taken place in the meantime). The
Mayor called for a vote. The motion carried 5-0.

language for the amendment to the Agreement. The Commission
reviewed the written material and there was discussion on
how to handle the $75,000. The consensus was to allow the
City the option of choosing whether it wanted $75,000 cash
or $75,000 in construction. The City Manager remarked that
meant Section 2 on page 2 of 6 would have to be amended.
Vice Mayor Wische moved to pass Resolution No. 90-AAAAAAA as
amended in Section 4. C and with the deletion of G. The
language in 4.B. will be revised to incorporate the option.
The motion was seconded and carried 3-2. Commissioner
Weiner and Commissioner Olenik voted against the motion.
Mr. Morton asked whether Tradewinds would be issued a letter
of technical compliance the next day. The City Manager
responded affirmatively. Mr. Miller understood Mr.
Finizio's difference in opinion.
3. Interim Service Fees
The City Attorney had provided the Commission with a
memorandum on this topic dated October 11, 1990. Also
reviewed was a memorandum from the City Attorney to the City
Manager dated October 2, 1990. The Mayor commented on cases
where cities were legally challenged when Interim Service
Fees were implemented and substantial fees had to be
refunded. The Mayor was uncomfortable with this because he
thought it would be attacked regardless of what procedures
are followed. There was discussion. Mr. Cherof noted that
some cities had implemented Interim Service Fees and had not
been sued.
The City Manager remarked that if implemented, the City
would raise $300,000 in the next fiscal year. Mr. Miller
explained that in business and residential, on the day the
Certificate of Occupancy is received, they would have to pay
for direct municipal services until such time as they are
placed on the tax roll. The services they would be paying
for were Police, Fire, EMS, roads, Library and Recreation &
Parks. Administrative costs are exluded. Mr. Miller stated
the Interim Service Fee is not a tax but is a fee based on a
direct service. Mr. Miller indicated the study would
directly relate that fee to a service. The Commission had
already approved approximately $22,000 for the study. It
had been placed on hold, however, because of concerns of the
Mayor. The City Manager awaited further direction.
Commissioner Olenik moved that the City Manager move toward
getting the Interim Service Fee adopted. Vice Mayor Wische
seconded the motion which carried 4-1. The Mayor voted
against the motion.

Section 5-139 of the Code to determine if the Commission's
intent was properly expressed in the Ordinance. Mr. Cherof

and he requested permission to revisit this and bring back a
proposed amendment.
Commissioner Olenik moved to approve the recommendation.
Vice Mayor Wische seconded the motion which carried 5-0.
OLD BUSINESS
False Alarms/Security Systems - Registration fees
Relative to false alarms and security systems, Vice Mayor
Wische objected to the annual license fee of $30 and then
allowing for three free false alarms before the City starts
charging $25, $50 and $100 for consecutive false alarms.
Vice Mayor Wische moved to amend this so that the annual
license fee or registration would be a "one shot deal." This
applied to residential only. There was discussion.
Commissioner Olenik thought if the City was going to get the
commercial on the fire inspection fees, why couldn't this be
included with the fire inspection fees for the commercial.
City Manager Miller noted commercial and residential alarms
systems are covered. He commented that the public seems to
support the false alarm concept, however, they don't like
the $30 registration fee just to have a tag placed on their
front window. Mr. Miller wanted to make sure that for the
$30 registration fee, the alarm system was being installed
by a reputatable company. That information would be on
record as well as who to contact when the alarm goes off and
the owner is not present to shut it off. The City presently
had an Ordinance calling for annual registration. Mr.
Miller needed to amend that Ordinance to allow for one time
registration.
Commissioner Olenik seconded Vice Mayor Wische's motion
which carried 5-0.

Update from Building Department
Don Jaeger, Building Official had provided memorandum No.

Commissioner Olenik made remarks about privilege taxes and
justification of fees. He also commented on the difference
in fees for different occupations. If the City wasn't pro-
viding different services for different occupations, he won-
dered why there should be different fees. He thought this
was "food for thought" for next year. Explanatory remarks
were made by the Building Official.
Discussion took place regarding the significance of Mr.
Jaeger's concluding sentence in memorandum No. 90-460 which
read, "We feel that through our study, Ordinance 90-29 is

nue for the City of Boynton Beach."
B. Oceanfront Park Beach Decals
Town of Ocean Ridge - Reconsideration
This topic was discussed early in the meeting.
D. Sign Code Comparison
A 69 page comparison had been provided the Commission
earlier in the day. The Commission chose to table this
topic until the next meeting.
C. Creation of a Community Development District
for Quantum Park
Mr. Edward Deutsch and Mr. Steven Deutsch of Quantum Assoc.
were present at the m~eting. Edward Deutsch explained how a
Community Development District would help bring growth to
the City and relieve the burden on the residential taxpayer.
He commented these Districts are totally independent and
have no reliance on the City. It would not cost the City.
The City would not be responsible for any of its activities.
Quantum Assoc. was proposing the District include only pro-
perty within Quantum Corp. Park with some exceptions such as
properties already sold to Publix and others prior to this.
The only property that could be subjected to these
assessments would be Quantum's own properties. Mr. Deutsch
referred to difficulties in the financing world today and he
felt this would be an opportunity to help future industrial
office users to come into the City.
Discussion took place on whether this would affect the
City's bond credit rating, if it failed. Commissioner
Weiner felt if the City's name was on anything which failed,
it would not help the City's credit rating, whether the City
was directly responsible for it or not. If this did fail,
she asked who would be left to maintain the 143 acres.

MINUTES - REGULAR CITY COMMISSION
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA
OCTOBER 16, 1990
Mr. Gary Moyer of Gary Moyer & Assoc., a professional man-
agement company that manages many of these Special
Assessment Districts responded one of the nice things about
having a government agency being responsible for maintaining
the infrastructure is that they would have the ability to
assess the fees charged on tax bills as a non ad valorem
assessment. If payments are not made to the Tax Collector,
then they would be subject to the tax certificate sales pro-
cess. Mr. Moyer explained in technical terms why he felt
there was assurance these assessments would be paid.
Mr. Deutsch explained the lender on this overall project is
Chase Manhattan Bank. The Bank had agreed to subordinate
its debt to these bonds. If the project failed, Chase
Manhattan would step up to protect its investment.
It was clarified that the City would not be losing ad
valorem taxes on the 143 acres. This was not a "TIF."
Explanation took place regarding a Board of Supervisors
which would be established and which would consist initially'
of Quantum representatives. Later on it would consist of
landowners in the District. They would have the power to
float bonds on their own property. Mr. Deutsch remarked if
they were able to establish this District, Quantum would be
able to reduce the land price in the park at least $2 per
sq. ft. It would allow a buyer to finance a portion of the
purchase price with the use of these bonds for 20 years at a
low interest rate. It would allow the City to have growth
in the City, without any obligation by the City, at a time
when financing is virtually unattainable in this corporate
environment. This would all be public record.
Discussion took place regarding meetings of the Board of
Supervisors which could be held in Commission Chambers if
desired, but would need to be published in the newspaper in
advance.
Mr. Harry Marcus, 650 Horizons East, was interested in this
topic and had obtained information from the State on
Community Development Districts, bonding and the State
Statutes themselves. He noted that under the law, the City
has the right to accept the responsibility if it fails.
That had been left open in the event something went wrong.
Mr. Marcus indicated he would provide the City Manager with
copies of the written information he had obtained. In view
of the way this was to be handled, Mr. Marcus was interested
in how long it would be before the properties are developed.
Mr. Deutsch responded the City does have the legal right to
take on the responsibility, however, it was not being asked
to do so. The Statute was designed for the infrastructure

and the public purpose areas. The 143 acres under con-
sideration are public areas such as streets, lakes, public
preserve areas, etc. That is where all the infrastructure
is located. That is what the legislation was designed for.
Mr. Moyer explained that generally on new real estate
Districts such as this, the bonds are sold to sophisticated
investors who make their own analysis of the risks involved
rather than to "orphans and widows," or small investors. It
was noted the 143 acres had not actually been dedicated to
the public. It was owned by Quantum Park with easements for
the public. Nominal taxes are paid on it. The City Manager
interjected it included areas such as roads, public and pri-
vate, road right-of-ways, etc. One of the first steps this
District would take would be to float bonds and reimburse
Quantum or the developer for infrastructure outlayed~ The
Mayor commented he personally abhorred any elected body
advocating or attempting to convey or delegate its power to
tax on any property within its limits. The Mayor was also
concerned with creating a precedent in Boynton Beach.
Commissioner Olenik thought there was a need to look to the
future, attracting world class, clean industry to the City.
He thought this would be a vehicle to help attract northern
businesses. He commented on the need to lessen the tax bur-
den on the residential community.
Vice Mayor Wische moved to direct the City Attorney to draft
an Ordinance for the creation of this Community Development
District for Quantum Park. Commissioner Olenik seconded the
motion which carried 3-2. Mayor Moore and Commissioner
Weiner voted against the motion.
A verbatim transcript of the foregoing subject is on file in
the City Clerk's office.
NEW BUSINESS
A. Items for discussion requested by Mayor Gene Moore
1. Consider Waste Management Proposal to Handle City's
Residential and Commercial Waste Management Services
Mayor Moore indicated he would like to investigate the
possibility of the City going out for non-binding bids on
furnishing waste management services for the City. The
Commissioners were agreeable. Commissioner Weiner was
interested in conducting a study of the cities that had
done this or contemplated making the change and decided
against it. Commissioner Olenik believed the Florida League
of Cities had data in that regard. The City Manager was
asked to obtain statistics for the Commission.

2. Provisions of Section 14-7 of Code re: Blowing of Train
Whistles - FEC Request to blow whistles and horns
Mayor Moore thought trains should be allowed to resume
blowing of their whistles during the night to provide
warning to persons/vehicles near the tracks. The Mayor
thought it Was a public safety factor as opposed to a con-
venience factor. If one life was saved, the Mayor felt it
was worth the inconvenience. Discussion took place
regarding statistics gathered and other safeguards provided
such as the gates, lights, bells, etc.
The insurance liability aspects were considered. The City
Manager thought perhaps FEC was trying to transfer some of
the exposure. The Mayor agreed.
Commissioner Olenik pointed out where the bans have not been
imposed, nighttime accidents still increased 23%. Other
remarks were made. The consensus of the Commission was to
leave the Ordinance the way it is.
3. Palm Beach County referendum on Local Option Sales Tax
for courts and jails - consideration of stating City's
position
Discussion took place regarding the legality of a brochure
on the sales tax to fund courts and jail facilities. The
Commission had previously taken a position opposing the
sales tax. Some Commissioners didn't think both sides of
the issue were being presented in the brochure. The Mayor
thought it was misinformation to say the sales tax would
save $190,000,000. He pointed out a person could save a lot
if they paid a debt off ahead of time. Other opinions were
expressed. City Attorney Cherof thought the brochure was
basically promotional rather than instructional.
4. Nick Cassandra - Question on Eligibility for
Continued Service on Code Enforcement Board
City Attorney Cherof remarked the Ordinance clearly indi-
cated Mr. Cassandra would no longer be eligible to serve on
the Code Enforcement Board after moving out of the City's
corporate limits.
5. Use of Land Adjacent to Ocean Ridge City Hall
Mayor Moore pointed out Ocean Ridge had been using Boynton
Beach property adjacent to the Ocean Ridge City Hall for a
long time without compensating Boynton Beach. The City
Clerk had been unable to find anything formally giving Ocean
Ridge authority to utilize that land. The Mayor didn't
30
MINUTES - REGULAR CITY COMMISSION
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA
OCTOBER 16, 1990
think Ocean Ridge was dealing with Boynton Beach in good
faith. Boynton Beach had obtained an appraisal which had
been rejected by Ocean Ridge. The Mayor realized Ocean
Ridge needed the land. He thought the City Manager and City
Attorney should discuss this with Ocean Ridge. Mr. Miller
indicated he was looking into the possibility of selling the
land to Barnett Development Corp. The Mayor stated he
wouldn't accept a "nickel less than the appraised value."
ADMINISTRAtiVE
A. Consider appointing member to Community Redevelopment
Advisory Board for Central Business District - Term
expires 8/91 - Appointment to be made by Commissioner
Lillian Artis
This item remained tabled.
B. City Park Property (10 acre site on North Federal Hwy.)
- Request from Recreation & Park Board
Charles Frederick, Director of Recreation & Parks noted the
Recreation & Parks Board had brought this up at their last
meeting. The land was purchased for park development and
continues to lie dormant. The Board wanted to know if the
Commission wanted to begin to initiate planning of the site.
It was noted that no funds are designated for this in the
Operating Budget. Remarks were made about other funds that
could be designated for planning purposes.
Commissioner Weiner thought the City should finish projects
already underway such as the Hester Park and the Congress
Ave. Park. Mr. Frederick noted that even if the City
started planning now, we might not see development for
several years. Mr. Frederick didn't want to develop the
piece of property "hodge-podge." He wanted a Master Plan
and then they could look at phased development. Mr.
Frederick believed at least part of the property needed
parking, picnic, and marina/boat ramp type facilities. Mr.
Frederick recalled that when the bond issue was passed,
there were statements made to the effect that before the
City did anything officially, there would be public input
and public hearings on how the property should be used. The
Mayor thought the City should start with a general plan and
then allow for public input.
The Mayor asked for input from the Recreation & Parks Board
and the Commission could discuss it at the next meeting.

B. Discuss Bidding Threshold Ordinance Change
As outlined in Olivia McLean, Director of Administration &
Risk Management,s memorandum No. 90-228, it was recommended
that the bid threshhold on purchases or sales be increased
from $1,000 to $5,000. Exact procedures would be
established.
Commissioner Weiner moved to approve the recommendation.
The motion was seconded and carried 5-0.
ADMINISTRATIVE
C. Consider Date for Proposed Workshop Reference
Housing Programs and Downtown Area
City Manager Miller suggested a Workshop on October 30, 1990
at 6:00 P.M. to discuss housing programs and the downtown
area. About a month ago non-conforming uses in the downtown
area were discussed and Commissioner Olenik had requested a
workshop. The Community Redevelopment Advisory Board and
other interested parties would be invited. There was
agreement.
The City Manager commented on a special dinner closing which
was to be held on October 23, 1990, in connection with the
Series 1990 bonds.
D. McDonald's Request for Variance from City's Code to
Permit Continuance of Flying McDonald's Corporate Flaq
This topic was addressed early in the meeting.
F. Agreement with Delray Beach to Use Their Firing Range
Commissioner Olenik moved to approve the temporary Agreement
with Delray Beach to use their Firing Range. Vice Mayor
Wische seconded the motion which carried 5-0.
E. Ezell Hester Park Community Building -
Quote for Asbestos Removal
City Manager Miller had obtained a quote under the School
Board Contract for removal of asbestos in a building on the
site of the proposed park. The job will cost approximately
$13,500. Mr. Miller pointed out the asbestos has to be
removed under EPA and DER standards. The monies will
come from the Park Fund.
Vice Mayor Wische moved to approve this item. Commissioner
Olenik seconded the motion which carried 5-0.

Commissioner Olenik raised a question in connection with
item %3, a $17,850 payment to Bulldog Fence Co. for fencing
at the Woolbright/Seacrest Water Plant. He wondered why the
City would be involved in fencing this while construction is
underway. A representative for the department pointed out
33

present fencing is falling down and the City needs to keep
children and vagrants out.
Relative to item ~11, Mayor Moore wanted to make sure
someone was monitoring these payments to make sure the City
doesn't pay its attorneys on anything having to do with the
"Woolbright project." Everything having to do with that
project is to be paid by the developer. The City Manager
indicated that was correct and he was keeping an eye on
that.
Receive and file departmental monthly reports
Monthly Activity Reports from City Departments were made
available for Commission review by City Manager Miller.
Commissioner Olenik moved for the adoption of the Consent
Agenda. Commissioner Weiner seconded the motion which
