Request to amend the Future Land Use
Element of the Comprehensive Plan
from "Moderate Density Residential"
to "Local Retail Commercial" and to
rezone from R-1AA/PUD (Single-Family
Residential) to C-3 (Community
Commercial) to permit a farmer's
market and a drive-through dairy
barn.
(APPLICANT REQUESTS THIS BE CONTINUED
UNTIL DECEMBER 4, 1990.)
Vice Mayor Wische remarked he had been flooded with letters
and phone calls on this topic. At the July 17, 1990 City
Commission meeting the applicant had requested continuance
until the August 21, 1990 meeting. Now the applicant was
requesting a further postponement until December 4, 1990.
Vice Mayor Wische was opposed to further postponement and he
made comments about anxiety this is causing the citizens in
that area. He intended to make a motion that the Commission
vote on the rezoning issue at this meeting. Me thought the
applicant should pull this off the Agenda and forget about
it.
Vice Mayor Wische moved to deny the applicant's request for
another 3} month continuance. Commissioner Weiner seconded
the motion which carried 5-0.
Mayor Moore asked if there was any input from the public on
this item. He noted Vice Mayor Wische intended to make a
motion to deny the application and dispose of the matter.
Naomi Peter, 1102 Ocean Ave., Boynton Beach thought strict
attention should be given to the unbiased decision of the
Planning & Zoning Board not to rezone this property. In her
opinion it would be suicidal to build an exit, entrance or
~stablishment on the boulevard approximately 110 yards from
10th Court, due to the high speed Of vehicles in that area.

Commercial dumpsters on the subject property would bring
insects and rodents. She referred to drainage problems near
the site. She stated the residents are against the rezoning
of the property for commercial use and they want it to
remain single family.
Michael Morton, the applicant, stated they had decided to
withdraw the farmer's market and dairy barn from con-
sideration at this time. They would like to meet with the
community adjacent to the property and determine alternative
uses that would be agreeable to the residents and the deve-
loper.
Commissioner Olenik asked if it was still Mr. Morton's
intent to provide for a rezoning from residential to local
retail commercial. Mr. Morton thought based on the fact
that the adjacent property to the east is commercial and the
whole strip is commercial, the appropriate future use of the
property should be commercial. If the dairy barn and far-
mer's market were a problem to the residents, they were
willing to withdraw that. He still wished to keep the
application alive for a Comprehensive Plan change to commer-
cial. He wished to meet with the neighbors and come up with
a compatible use.
Commissioner Olenik didn't think the residents' opposition
was necessarily to the farmer's market/dairy barn concept as
much as it was to the property being rezoned commercial,
period.
Mr. Morton indicated there were uses taking place in that
community other than residential at the present time. He
referred to a heavy equipment repair business which is
located adjacent to his property. He made comments about
the "complexion" of that neighborhood changing over the
years and he thought the realistic use was commercial. He
asked that the application remain alive while he works with
~he community. If the community and developer cannot agree,
he stated they would leave it as it is and find a way to
develop it as 7 units per acre residential.
Mayor Moore stated the way he interpreted the motion was
that there was a request to lay this matter on the table
with the proviso that there will be attempts to negotiate
some type of amicable settlement between the property owners
and the developer and with the proviso that if this matter
is brought up again by the developer, there will be a secon-
dary public notice given to all people and a secondary
public hearing held.
Gary Lehnertz, 619 S.W. 2nd Ave., Boynton Beach spoke on
behalf of the Lake Boynton Estate Homeowners Assoc. He
3

indicated there had been a large number of people in his
Association and in Leisureville who had spoken to him in
opposition to this. He urged the Commission not to table
this, but to deny the matter and let the applicant bring
back a brand new petition, as opposed to continuing this.
Mr. Morton referred to the City, the developer and Lake
Boynton Estates having been "at odds" over the past five
years over the "pluses and minuses" of the Woolbright pro-
ject. He thought Mr. Lehnertz' objections would probably
continue no matter where he intended to build in the City.
Mr. Morton indicated he would be happy to meet with Lake
Boynton Estates as well. He made comments about the possi-
bility of putting in a park on a portion of this acreage in
lieu of parks that were in the Woolbright Place PUD. Mr.
Morton had agreed they would consolidate some smaller park
locations to make meaningful park acreage. The six acres
had now become 3½ acres of park. One half acre would go to
another civic use. The Planning & Zoning Board had recom-
mended the balance of 2 acres be considered for commercial.
Mr. Morton further explained.
Vice Mayor Wische explained to Mr. Morton that in a rezoning
and change to the Comprehensive Plan, a super-majority vote
of 4 affirmative votes out of 5 would be needed. He noted
Mr. Morton had the option of "bowing out" and establishing
good "PR" with the neighbors for the future. If the
Commission voted on it, the Vice Mayor thought Mr. Morton
would lose.
As there was no further input from the audience, THE PUBLIC
HEARING WAS CLOSED.
Motion
Vice Mayor Wische repeated his motion to deny the request
for rezoning of the Boynton Beach Blvd. farmer's market and
dairy barn from R-1AA/PUD to C-3. He noted this request was
for rezoning of the entire property, not just a specific
item. Commissioner Weiner seconded the motion which carried
5-0.
The Mayor asked what was involved if the developer wished to
reapply. Jim Golden, Acting Planning Director referred to
requirements in Appendix A - Zoning where the application
must be substantially different for him to reapply within
the one year time frame. There is a list of criteria in the
Ordinance.

CONDITIONAL USE: Request for condi-
tional use approval to construct a
day care center for 150 children.
Jim Golden, Acting Planning Director explained the recommen-
dation from both staff and the Planning & Zoning Board was
for approval, subject to staff comments. Staff recommended
a buffering mechanism between the center and the mobile home
residents. The Planning & Zoning Board specified exactly
what they wanted to see in terms of that buffer, namely,
slats through the chain link fence and a 6' Ficus hedge.
City Manager Miller pointed out the CAB unanimously recom-
mended approval of the conditional use with the stipulation
that the Strangler Fig tree be relocated to the north
playground area. The Vice Mayor noted the CAB basically
agreed with staff comments. Representatives for the deve-
loper were present in the audience and indicated they agreed
with these remarks.
Mayor Moore asked if there was anyone present in the
audience that wished to comment. As there was no response
from the audience, THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS CLOSED.
Commissioner Weiner moved that the conditional use to
construct the day care center for 150 children be approved,
subject to staff and CAB comments. Commissioner Artis
seconded the motion which carried 5-0.

Mayor Moore presented Service Awards to two retiring K-9
Police Dogs, "Dingo" and "Caesar." The dogs were rewarded
with 25-1b bags of "Gravy Train" dog food.
PUBLIC AUDIENCE
Ms. Maritha Madais, 418 N.W. 4th Ave., Boynton Beach
referred to the housing project on Seacrest, north of
Boynton Beach Blvd. The County had promised a
resident/manager to see that the property is kept up. She
referred to an insufficiency of trash dumpsters and trash
which accumulates resulting in a blighted area. She wanted
the Commission to make the County do something about their
promise. Ms. Madais felt there was a need for a Haitian
interpreter in this City as Police cannot understand the
Haitians. She felt there was a need to revitalize the
5

BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA

Police/community workshops to iron out problems. She stated
complaints continue to surface by minorities of physical
abuse by the Police and she elaborated. Mayor Moore asked
the City Manager to check out the items Ms. Madais had
referred to, particularly the point on the Housing Authority
failing to maintain the project.
Margaret Newton, 701 N.W. 4th Street, Boynton Beach referred
to trash pickup in the northwest section of the City.
Lately the area had been experiencing problems with trash
pickup at the appropriate times. She requested a more pre-
cise schedule for trash pickup in her area. In the northern
area of the City where density is greater, she thought trash
pickup should be picked up twice a week rather than once a
week. Also suggested was a general trash pickup for the
entire City once every six months to pick up cars, refri-
gerators, junk, etc. Mrs. Newton was also concerned about
community/police relations in the City. She was pleased
with the walking police patrols but expressed dismay over
other complaints that had surfaced. She didn't want to see
problems such as those experienced two years ago and thought
this was the time to nip the problem in the bud.
Commissioner Artis had tried to set up a Police/Community
activity group with the Police Chief but this had not
materialized and she wondered why. The City Manager was
asked to get back with Mrs. Newton on the points raised.
Lottie Pierce, 203 N.E. llth Ave., Boynton Beach made
remarks about noise problems on Martin Luther King Blvd.
Discussion had taken place with the City Manager and Police
Chief and yet Mrs. Pierce felt the problem persists.
Commissioner Artis explained what is done for one district
must be done for all districts. It was requested, however,
that trash problems in the area bordered by 1-95 to the west
and running east to the railroad and north from Boynton
Beach Blvd. to 22nd Ave. be given priority status in the
City-wide cleanup effort.
Commissioner Artis indicated there was a dire need for a
~layground area at 801Seacrest, the low income housing pro-
]ect. This project is probably the only project in the City
with so many children and no playground area. The citizens
would also like some sod, shade trees and lighting. Some
residents felt the reason these things had been destroyed
by kids was because there was no play area. On-site manage-
ment was desired.
Commissioner Artis stated the citizens group had asked that
the Police Sensitivity workshops be resumed as soon as
possible. She also hoped something could be done about
6

noise problems in the area, some of which are caused by cars
with the volume turned up to an excessive level.
Commissioner Weiner thought the plans of the County housing
project under discussion were among the worst she had ever
seen. She agreed they needed constant maintenance and a
play area. She thought there must be a way that the County
Commission could be coerced into supplying what should have
been supplied in the first place. Perhaps it could be done
by Resolution or by appearing at upcoming County Commission
meetings until they listen. The City Manager suggested it
be handled by staff first.
Shirley Stevens, 2832 S.E. 5th Circle, Los Mangos, Boynton
Beach addressed the Commission on behalf of the Boynton
Coalition of Homeowners. She pointed out the citizens'
Coalition is non-partisan and non-political. They are not a
pact and are incorporated as a non-profit corporation. Ms.
Stevens stated the Coalition was very concerned about the
proclivity of the Commission for calling special City
Commission meetings with such short notice that citizens are
unaware. It was suggested that special meetings only be
called when an item requiring urgent action must be
discussed and reasonable notice should be given the citi-
zens. To do otherwise could possibly give rise to the sup-
position that the Commission wished to discuss a subject
without citizens' input.
Ms. Stevens reminded the Commission that if any member of
the Commission would derive directly or indirectly financial
benefit from the raising of the height restriction on
buildings in any of the suggested areas, then that member
must not offer motions, debate or vote on any motion con-
cerning this issue. A member would need to declare a
conflict of interest and step down while the matter is con-
sidered by the Commission. As an example, Ms. Stevens
stated if any of the Commissioners own property in the
Central Business District, then the raising of the height
restriction would make the property more valuable and the
Commissioner should therefore not participate.
Ms. Stevens referred to a special workshop held recently
with the Chamber of Commerce to discuss when and how to
place on the ballot the raising of the height restrictions.
She noted the Chamber and representatives of Quantum Park
made input. Although numerous representatives of local
homeowners associations and condominium groups were present,
their opinions were not requested. None of the speakers
were held to a three minute limit. Ms. Stevens stated the
Coalition objected to favoritism being shown to any group in
the City.

DEVELOPMENT PLANS
The two projects listed on the Agenda under DEVELOPMENT
PLANS - CONSENT AGENDA (Topper's BBQ and Shoppes of
Woolbright) were both moved to DEVELOPMENT PLANS -
NON-CONSENT AGENDA, which follows.
NON-CONSENT AGENDA - NOT UNANIMOUSLY
APPROVED BY PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD
1. Consider request for approval of extended
site plan - The Grove Shopping Center
Jim Golden, Acting Planning Director stated staff recom-
mended approval of this extension. The applicant had
applied for a building permit. They are in the process of
making some changes and will have to submit for a site plan
modification.
Commissioner Olenik moved to approve the one year extension
to the site plan. Commissioner Weiner seconded the motion
which carried 5-0.
2. Consider request for approval of extended
site plan - Coastal Corner Service Station
Mr. Golden explained this related to Fred & Joe's Fina on
Boynton Beach Blvd. The applicant was working towards reno-
vation of the site to a coastal village theme. They are
requesting a third consecutive six month extension of' the
development order from August 16, 1990 to February 16, 1991.
Staff had no objections to the extension. In view of the
fact that this is the third extension, Commissioner Olenik
was hopeful that progress would now be made. The City
Manager interjected the applicant had a good site plan deve-
loped and had been trying to get funding.
Vice Mayor Wische moved to approve the six month extension.
Commissioner Olenik seconded the motion which carried 5-0.
3. Consider request for approval of site plan modification
- Lighthouse Square Marina (f/k/a Waters Edge Marina)
Mr. Golden noted the staff report before the Commission
basically itemized the changes the applicant was requesting.
The City Manager noted the changes were viewed to be not
substantial and under $100,000 in cost.
City Attorney Cherof stated the memorandum that had been
written applied to preliminary consideration at the staff
ievel or by the boards themselves.~ ~e did not think it

applied to subject matter such as what was being considered.
Those items could pass through and not have to clear the
many hurdles as it had already been before those boards. It
could come directly to the Commission for consideration.
Commissioner Weiner asked what would happen if the applicant
returned in a month or two with more changes that would add
to the $51,000. Attorney Cherof responded you could look at
that and consider the cumulative effect it would have at
some point in the future and then determine of your own
volition that the threshhold had been met by the cumulative
effect.
Commissioner Olenik asked if there was a variance procedure
for height exceptions because of mechanical equipment. Mr.
Golden responded it was basically an administrative approval
at the discretion of the City Commission. It didn't have to
be an advertised Public Hearing. Attorney Cherof indicated
the Commission could grant the height exception because of
the mechanical equipment or non-inhabitable space at this
meeting.
Gary Lehnertz, 619 S.W. 2nd Avenue, Boynton Beach felt this
request should be turned down. He stated this was an
increase in a boat storage area which many residents felt
should not be the centerpiece of the downtown area. He
thought to increase the height of the lighthouse from 45' to
65' without people really knowing what was going on was
despicable on the part of the developer. Overall, with the
exception of the boat storage area, Mr. Lehnertz thought
~his was a very good project which he hoped would move for-
ward.
Commissioner Weiner remarked her objection to this project
was always the boat storage. Eventually, she went along
with it because she thought the project as a whole was good
for the City. But to see the boat storage getting larger
and the restaurant (which was no longer Busch's Restaurant)
getting smaller, was not pleasing. She hoped the new "Site
Plan Rider" would help end things like this.
Maurice Rosenstock, 1 Villa Lane, Boynton Beach remarked Mr.
Livingston and the developer were the first to voluntarily
come forward and indicate they were willing to sign such an
agreement (the Site Plan Rider). He was amazed this had now
changed.
Vice Mayor Wische commented that signing the Site Plan Rider
did not mean the developer couldn't come back at a later
date to request a change. The Rider states that the City
would be held harmless if it denies that change.

MINUTES - REGULAR CITY COMMISSION MEETING
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA
AUGUST 21, 1990
Mayor Moore thought the Commissioners should keep in mind
that developers are sometimes faced with economic con-
ditions. The developer has the right, under the City's
Ordinances, to come back and if he can convince the
Commission that certain conditions do exist, the Commission
has the authority to either approve or deny it. The Mayor
noted the enlargement of the boat storage area was infinite-
simal. Craig Livingston, who was present at the meeting,
indicated the increase in the boat storage was from 35,775
sq. ft. to 36,450 sq. ft., or 640 sq. ft. (2% increase in
floor area). The building will be 5 ft. longer, but will
accommodate the same number of boats.
Mr. Golden pointed out the staff comments were not complete
and the applicant had not completed his TRB review. It
should be understood that the applicant needed to complete
the application before they can obtain the permit. City
Manager Miller indicated he would not be coming back through
the whole "loop" again. He needs to meet the technical spe-
cifications as outlined by each of the departments. He does
not have to go through the conceptual process.
Vice Mayor Wische moved to approve the site plan modifica-
tion, subject to all staff comments. Commissioner Olenik
seconded the motion which carried 5-0.
At Commissioner Artis' request, Mr. Livingston explained the
results of research conducted relative to the heights of
other lighthouses in the United States and how the proposed
lighthouse will compare. Commissioner Artis did not want
Boynton Beach's lighthouse to be a "farce" and simply be lit
by a "candle." Mr. Livingston pointed out this lighthouse
will be small when compared to neighboring lighthouses, but
will have a good enough height to be a focal point.

SIGN APPROVAL: Request for approval
of a flat sign
Commissioner Weiner noted this restaurant had been cited by
Code Enforcement because of banner signs which are up. Don
Jaeger, Building Official noted the banners had been cited,
however, the existing Sign Code allows 30 days to comply,
prior to when the City can bring them before the Code
Enforcement Board. Vice Mayor Wische remarked the applicant
was before the Commission in connection with the flat sign
and not in connection with a code enforcement violation.

Mr. Chuck Capella, representative for the owner, noted his
company was not responsible for the banners. Once Mr.
Capelta has the permit;he estimated the sign could probably
be fabricated and installed in about three weeks. Scott
Blasie, Administrator of Code Enforcement stated the 30 day
clock on the violation had started about two weeks ago, so
they were looking at another two weeks. The restaurant
would be brought before the Code Enforcement Board during
%he third week in September.
Mr. Jaeger explained the Sign Code does allow temporary
signage once they submit for a permit. They could be issued
a temporary sign permit to allow the banners. The Mayor
thought businesses should be advised of that fact rather
than finding out from Code Enforcement. Mr. Jaeger indi-
cated they have told them that, however, they have to go
through the site plan approval process first before they
can submit for the permit. Once they submit for the permit,
they can submit for the temporary signage.
It was noted the Community Appearance Board and Planning &
Zoning Board had approved the sign. Johnnetta Broomfield,
Director of Community Improvement indicated the sign
complied with the downtown sign guidelines.
Vice Mayor Wische moved to approve the sign. Commissioner
Olenik seconded the motion for discussion purposes.
Cynthia Greenhouse, 618 N.E. 20th Lane, Boynton Beach stated
banner signs are presently prohibited. She made remarks
about the three draped banner signs and stated the
~estaurant was requesting approval of a sign when they were
~n violation. Mrs. Greenhouse thought the restaurant had
'!thumbed its nose" at the City since being cited and she
explained.
~iscussion took place regarding banner signs that some
tenants at the Winn Dixie shopping center had put up during
~ecent renovation and the fact that they had also been cited
bY Code Enforcement. Mr. Blasie indicated all but one
tenant had removed the banners voluntarily. The remaining
Ease had been cited.
~ayor Moore called for a vote on the motion. The motion
Carried 4-1. Commissioner Weiner voted against the motion.

SIGN VARIANCE AND SITE PLAN: Request
for approval of an amended site plan
to allow for project signage
Jim Golden explained the TRB recommended approval of this
request with the exception of the sign variance request
which had to be addressed by the Commission. When this
request went to the Planning & Zoning Board, the Board
recommended approval and at that time the developer offered
to move the 50' high free-standing sign from the southeast
corner of the building to the northeast and reduce the
height from 50' to 40'.
Vice Mayor Wische reported on the CAB's recommendations.
City Manager Miller stated there were two pylon signs, one
on the east and one on the west. Staff recommended the east
pylon sign, referred to as the "B" sign, (next to 1-95) be
eliminated. Mr. Miller stated it was recommended that sign
"A" be centrally located somewhere in that vicinity, but
kept within the height limitation of 30'. Relative to the
other two wall signs, it was recommended that the 720 sq.
ft. for the maximum wall signage be allowed and the 150 sq.
ft. of signage, with the owner given the discretion of
choosing the advertising matter.
Michael Morton, Tradewinds Group, Boca Raton stated they
were eliminating the 50' pylon sign in its entirety. They
were going along with the recommendations of the CAB, TRB,
Planning & Zoning Board and Building Dept. and were
requesting the rest of the sign variance be approved. He
noted everything else they had presented was approved with
the exception of three items.
Mr. Miller indicated a 30' pylon sign remained which would
need a variance in connection with the square footage which
would be 150 sq. ft. In this district, 80 sq. ft. is the
maximum.
In connection with the Home Depot wall signs on the front
and side of the store, a variance was needed to set the
maximum sq. ft. at 720 sq. ft. The Ordinance allows 64 sq.
ft. Mr. Jaeger noted this is in a PCD and the Ordinance
doesn't really address what happens when you have a building
of this magnitude. All it allows per tenant is 64 sq. ft.
He thought it was really meant to address strip shopping
centers, however, in a normal commercial zone they would be
allowed 10% of the face of the building which would be 1,300
sq. ft.
A variance request was also needed in connection with the
multi-use on the remaining free-standing sign. Staff recom-
mended approval of this aspect.
12
MINUTES - REGULAR CITY COMMISSION MEETING
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA
AUGUST 21, 1990
In connection with the remaining pylon sign, Mr. Morton
explained the 150 sq. ft. would consist of 72 sq. ft. for
the Home Depot portion, 38 sq. ft. for the Shoppes of
Woolbright portion and 30 additional sq. ft. for two addi-
tional tenants to go on in the future. Mr. Morton calcu-
lated even with the two additional tenants listed, there
would still be 9'6" of clearance from the bottom of the sign
to the ground. Discussion took place regarding the ren-
dering which was before the Commission and Commissioner
Olenik noted the rendering didn't reflect what Mr. Morton
was proposing. Mr. Morton indicated that the rendering was
not up-to-the-minute as some of the decisions were made
after the CAB meeting which was held the prior evening.
Mr. Morton responded the sign configuration to be used would
be a compromise between the 50' sign and the 30' sign. You
would have The Home Depot, Shoppes of Woolbright and space
for additional tenants below it. There would be one sign
instead of two signs. Lengthy discussion ensued. It was
clarified that the wall sign on the west and south
elevations combined would total the 720 sq. ft. of signage.

In connection with the sign variances, Vice Mayor Wische
moved to approve the recommendations. Commissioner Artis
seconded the motion which carried 5-0.

Shirley Stevens, 2832 S.E. 5th Circle, Los Mangos, Boynton

Relative to Police and Fire protection, water and sewer ser-
vice, etc., she asked if a professionally conducted study
had been performed, with appropriate cost projections to
determine what additional personnel will be required to ser-
vice these tall buildings. She wondered if a traffic survey
had been conducted to determine road improvements that may
be needed. She asked who would pay for these costs. She
asked if consideration had been given to the State's con-
currency requirements. She stated it appeared every time
the tax base was "expanded" taxes go up. It was recommended
that citizens vote against this proposal to protect the
quality of life in Boynton Beach.
~ormer Mayor Nick Cassandra, 2554 S.W. 10th Court, Boynton
Beach requested the City have the City Manager and Public
~nformation Officer represent the Commission and do some
public relations work in the City, answering questions.
Questions he personally had been asked and was now passing
on were as follows:
~f the CBD is a tax increment finance area and we talk about
~ax base increase, there is no money going to the general
~evenue other than 5% of what is built out of town. If that
is the case, all capital equipment, infrastructure and ser-
vices required will come out of general revenue and that
Will therefore mean a tax increase. Mr. Cassandra stated
~he same question was raised as to Quantum Park and he ela-
borated. Mr. Cassandra thought the citizens deserved
answers to pertinent questions raised at this meeting.

MINUTES - REGULAR CITY coMMISSION MEETING
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA
AUGUST 21, 1990
Commission Olenik made remarks about the City's respon-
sibility to provide the facts to the public. It had to be
done without taking sides on the issue. Several
Commissioners agreed some type of information program was
needed. One Commissioner suggested using the City's
Newsletter. The City Manager recommended a special infor-
mational flyer setting forth the facts on this topic only,
which could be sent to every residential house. The
Commission was agreeable and the City Manager was instructed
to allow them to view the material prior to mailing.
Other remarks were made about the City Manager possibly
making presentations before condominium groups and others
to provide the facts, without taking sides one way or the
other. Mayor Moore personally thought the proponents or
opponents should request and arrange for such meetings.
As there was no further input from the public, THE PUBLIC
HEARING WAS CLOSED.
Commissioner Olenik moved for the adoption of proposed
Ordinance No. 90-17 on second and final reading. The motion
includes the amendment stated by City Attorney Cherof. Vice
Mayor Wische seconded the motion. A roll call vote was
taken by Sue Kruse, City Clerk as follows:

Re: Occupational Licenses
City Attorney Cherof read proposed Ordinance No. 90-29 by

"AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA, AMENDING CHAPTER 13, OCCUPATIONAL
LICENSES; PROVIDING FOR APPLICABILITY; PROVIDING FOR
REGISTRATION AND REGULATORY FEES; PROVIDING FOR
APPLICATION FEES; PROVIDING FOR REINSPECTION FEES;

LICENSES AND FEES THEREFORE; PROVIDING FOR INCREASED FEES
FOR CERTAIN EXISTING CATEGORIES OF OCCUPATIONAL LICENSES;
PROVIDING A SEVERABILITY CLAUSE; PROVIDING AUTHORITY TO
CODIFY; PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE."
Mayor Moore asked if there was any input from the public.
Mr. Phil Martin, who was sitting in the audience, asked who
determines the fee schedule. City Manager Miller responded
it was based on the recommendation of the Building Dept.
The Building Dept. had studied what neighboring cities
charge and the proposed fees are in line with what other
cities are charging.
Relative to Section 13-2 (a) of the proposed Ordinance,
"Registration and Regulation," Mr. Cherof stated research
had concluded enforceability of a registration fee as
outlined there would be suspect. He asked the Commission to
delete that provision and simply reserve a section.
Remarks were made about the category for adult entertainment
and licensing. By including that category it simply gives
~he City authority. If the City ever chose to opt-out of
the County, it would be covered. Mr. Cherof remarked we
would need an Ordinance to opt-out of the County.
The Mayor explained to Joanne McClure, owner of Morey's
Lounge, the significance of the Ordinance.
Vice Mayor Wische thought the Commission had previously
discussed whether they wanted to opt-out of the County and
17
MINUTES - REGULAR CITY COMMISSION MEETING
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA
AUGUST 21, 1990
he believed they had given the City Attorney instructions to
draw up something in that regard. The Commission would then
decide what the charge would be, taking into consideration
costs for Police and Fire protection. City Attorney Cherof
understood the first step was to arrive at the dollar
amount. City Manager Miller interjected they had developed
that scenario. Wilfred Hawkins, Assistant to the City
Manager reported the City could charge each establishment a
bottom line total of $1,550 which would cover Police and
Fire protection costs. There Were comments about increasing
personnel costs which might push that amount up to the
$2,000 figure. Other remarks were made about the $2,000
currently charged by the County and the fraction of that
which the City receives.
The question was raised again on whether the City wants to
opt-out or not. The Mayor stated the City would have the
vehicle to opt-out once this Ordinance is adopted. Mr.
Cherof indicated at the next meeting he would bring forth an
Ordinance for first reading.
Remarks were made about the amount of time spent providing
Police related services to a regular lounge as opposed to an
adult entertainment establishment. Lengthy discussion took
place.
As there was no further input from the public, THE PUBLIC
HEARING WAS CLOSED.
Commissioner Olenik moved for the adoption of proposed
Ordinance No. 90-29, subject to the City Attorney's amend-
Gent, on second and final reading. Vice Mayor Wische
~econded the motion. A roll call vote was taken by Sue
Kruse, City Clerk as follows:
Commissioner Artis - Aye
Commissioner Olenik - Aye
Commissioner Weiner - Aye
Mayor Moore - Aye
Vice Mayor Wische - Aye
Motion carried 5-0.
Further discussion took place about the possibility of
opting-out. Commissioner Olenik remarked that being under
the County provides another layer of liability. In the case
of a lawsuit, it would be the County that would be sued. If
the City opts-out, the City would be exposing itself to
something that he didn't think it really needed to. The
Mayor thought the City was already involved in the "loop" to
an extent because if someone applies to operate an adult

entertainment establishmen~ they have to get County appro-
val, subject to City approval on the zoning.
Vice Mayor Wische referred to the three adult entertainment
establishments in the City. He asked if the City could
charge them a higher figure for the license (such as perhaps
$5,000) if all three wanted to opt-out and came forward
themselves and paid a higher figure. City Attorney Cherof
r~esponded the city should not do that. The City could only
charge such a high fee if it happened to be, in fact, a
rleasonable license fee based upon our research of what the
costs are and the regulatory aspects from our perspective.
The Mayor noted two of the three had already indicated they
were willing to pay $7,500. Commissioner Olenik wondered
why the businesses wanted to pay more and opt out of the
County.
The Commission requested a written memorandum from the City
Attorney in this regard, setting forth the criteria and pro-
riding an explanation of how the County licensing operates
currently.

City Manager Miller remarked he did have concerns about this
~hange. The Fire Dept.'s percentage is at 50%. General
employees are at 60%. The Police are asking to move from
~5% to 50%. The City Manager couldn't really support the
50% or the 60%, however, he was willing to withdraw his
bbjection.

1. Hampton Enterprises, Inc. Lawsuit
City Attorney Cherof reported the City had been joined in a
quiet title action by the plaintiff, Hampton Enterprises,
Inc. This involved a Code Enforcement lien and the City
moving against the New Christian Life ~hurch. The property
was acquired by the plaintiff in the lawsuit at a tax sale
for ad valorem taxes. The City's lien was subordinate to
that and was laid down by the conveyance of the tax deeds.
Rather than spend any time on behalf of the City defending
the action, City Attorney Cherof requested authority either
to do nothing and have a default entered against the City or
to authorize execution of a release of our lien.

Mayor Moore thought a disclaimer would be better than taking
default. The Mayor asked if Mr. Cherof had looked into this
from the standpoint that there may or may not have been a
defect in our proceeding, where we went after the lessee and
did not include the owner in the loop. Mr. Cherof responded
we probably would have difficulty enforcing the claim of
lien in any regard. The Mayor asked Mr. Cherof to discuss
this with Code Enforcement personnel so they don't have
Problems with this in the future. Mr. Cherof indicated he
would.
Commissioner Weiner moved to authorize the City Attorney to
file a disclaimer in this action. Vice Mayor Wische
seconded the motion which carried 5-0.
OLD BUSINESS
A. Utility Rates for Water/Wastewater
(Previously Tabled)
Commissioner Olenik moved to remove this topic from the
table. Vice Mayor Wische seconded the motion which carried
5-0.
City Manager Miller stated several inverted rates had been
devised which were being referred to as C-3, C-4 and C-5.
The rates are outlined in Exhibits attached to John Guidry,
Director of Utilities' Memorandum No. 90-491 to the City
Manager. Mr. Miller intended to address C-4 and C-5. Under
~he inverted rate we would still keep the base rate of $5.00
~or zero to 3,000 gallons. This covers fixed costs. The
base monthly rate must still be collected even if no water
is used. Mr. Miller explained the price increase as the
user moves up each of the nine useage rate categories in
C-4. He outlined how C-5 goes up a little steeper and uses
a 2¢ difference between categories as opposed to the 1¢ in
%he C-4 inverted rate.
C-4 appeared to be the minimum rate that would meet the
1.200 additional bond test that the City needs to meet.
Commission could go with C-5 if they chose.
The
Based on the recommendation of staff, Vice Mayor Wische
~oved to approve the Utility Rate Structure set forth, spe-
cifically, C-4. Commissioner Weiner seconded the motion.
Remarks were made by Commissioner Olenik who didn't think
the C-4 really provided a conservation incentive. He
~hought C-5 was preferable. Discussion ensued among the
Commissioners. The City Manager provided further comparison
between c-4 and C-5 and pointed out C-5 provides for a

greater invert. The more that is utilized, the more the
user will have to pay. It was noted that the City's resi-
dents had not seen an increase since 1983 on the utilities
side. Mr. Miller thought C-5, even though it brings in
additional revenue, might be pushing it. He thought if the
City could get by with C-4, that would be good. With the
new rate structure for next year we could look at varying
the difference between categories.
Mayor Moore called for a vote of all those in favor of the
motion. The motion carried 4-1. Commissioner Olenik voted
against the motion.
Commissioner Weiner suggested the City Manager send a letter
to City water users explaining the new rates. Mr. Miller
believed the City should do the rate structure by Ordinance
and not by Resolution. When such an Ordinance is brought
before the Commission, Mr. Miller stated he would need
Commission authorization to send out advisory notices to all
customers.
The City Manager and City Attorney were instructed this rate
structure had been approved, subject to being incorporated
into an Ordinance. Mr. Miller stated the Ordinance would be
brought before the Commission at the September 5, 1990
meeting for first reading.
B. Consideration of new format for City of
Boynton Beach Letterhead (Previously Tabled)
This item was left on the table.
C. Purchase of Color Film Processor
Commissioner Olenik moved to remove this topic from the
table. Commissioner Weiner seconded the motion which
carried 5-0.
Commissioner Olenik remarked that the justifications of
staff had clarified his questions.
Mayor Moore didn't think enough research had gone into this.
He referred to another brand smaller machine that he thought
was superior to the Hope model and was cheaper. He didn't
believe the model recommended by the Police Dept. was a sole
purchase item. The Mayor was concerned with the City
getting into this business rather than handling it on a
contract basis. He referred to maintenance on the machine
and EPA threshholds on chemicals used. The Mayor remarked
that very large quantities of film had to be processed in
order for this to be cost effective. The Mayor suggested
going out to bid on this.

BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA

Police Chief Hillery explained the reasons this piece of
equipment was desired. This machine would enable the
department to handle its current function plus enable them
to take photographs of persons arrested in color. Remarks
were made about the Police Dept. serving as the unofficial
photographers for the City and the large number of pho-
tographs taken throughout the City's departments and the
cost for processing. The Chief thought with this machine,
the department could provide the service, City-wide more
economically.
Discussion took place between the Mayor and Chief Hillery.
Commissioner Olenik moved to place this topic back on the
table. Vice Mayor Wische seconded the motion which carried
5-0.
The Mayor indicated he had received printed information on
this topic from people in that business. He would send the
material to the City Manager. Mr. Miller could deal with
Chief Hillery and Purchasing to determine which way to go.
D. Advertisement for interested persons
to fill vacant Commission seat
A newspaper ad had been prepared to advertise for persons
interested in the City Commission seat Commissioner Olenik
would be vacating on November 20, 1990. The Commissioners
thought the ad looked fine.
E. Kelly Tires - George's Texaco
Commissioner Olenik was interested in the status of the
Kelly Tire situation. He noted the State's Dept. of
Agriculture had indicated the gas tanks were not operating.
ge asked if it was the Commission's intent in the downtown
area, to move away from these types of uses so they could
develop a "coastal walking theme." Commissioner Olenik
~eferred to changing uses in the City's zoning. He hoped
this business had not gotten around what the City was
hoping to eliminate.
City Manager Miller stated the matter was more of a legal
Sssue as far as what the City could do. He referred to a
~tipulated agreement which was in the works as a result of
the last Code Enforcement Board hearing. City Attorney
Cherof noted the City was waiting for the agreement to come
back from the other attorney. The settlement was between
~he administration of the City and the property owner at the
inception of the Code Enforcement Board meeting. This alle-
9iated the requirement to go forward with the Board hearing
that evening. Attorney Cherof noted a Court Reporter was
28
MINUTES - REGULAR CITY COMMISSION MEETING

present that evening and it was tape recorded. In his opi-
nion, it was effective as of the date it was entered into.
The stipulation provided that the property owner would con-
form its use to the same nature that it was conducting at
the business at the time it became grandfathered in, when
the CBD District was created.
Commissioner Weiner referred to the Florida Dept. of
Agriculture, Consumer Complaint Form dated July 23, 1990.
The inspection showed only two pumps at the site, both of
which were inactive, according to the Dept. of Agriculture.
Commissioner Weiner stated that was not according to the
stipulation at all. The Mayor remarked he thought the sti-
pulation said the business would meet whatever the require-
ment was. If he had to replace the tanks, the Mayor guessed
he would have to do so to meet the stipulation. Mr. Cherof
said that would be his interpretation, otherwise he would be
in violation of the stipulation. If the stipulation says
he's to be selling gas and he's not, and he's not repairing
the pumps to sell gas, then he had changed the use to bring
himself into a non-conforming use and he would be operating
illegally. The City could get an injunction to close him
down or proceed in a more slow fashion, through the Code
Enforcement Board.
Other comments were made. Mr. Miller indicated he needed
the stipulated agreement to see exactly what the items are.
Mr. Cherof referred to the stipulated agreement and remarked
the man stated publicly and for the record that he stipu-
lated to a certain number of things. It was enforceable, in
Mr. Cherof's opinion, as of that evening. It required no
written agreement, although a written agreement would be
convenient. Mr. Cherof stated they could also refer to the
Minutes of the Code Enforcement Board meeting.
Cynthia Greenhouse, 618 N.E. 20th Lane, Boynton Beach
believed the situation was becoming insidious. She thought
it was beginning to appear like selective code enforcement.
She remarked on the sequence of events in this case.
Reference was made to remarks by Attorney Bruce Kaleita
(attorney for George's Texaco) at the June 20, 1990 Code
Enforcement Board meeting. Mr. Kaleita, at the June
meeting, indicated the sale of gasoline "presently is" and
would continue to be the principal use. Based upon that
stipulation, Mr. Cherof and the Board accepted the stipula-
tion. Mrs. Greenhouse thought it was obvious that the pumps
were never being used and this was a blatant continuation of
an illegal use in the CBD. In view of time that had
elapsed, Mrs. Greenhouse had contacted the EPA. Ultimatel~
the Dept. of Agriculture visited the site. Mrs. Greenhouse
later remarked she had done this as a resident of the City
29
MINUTES - REGULAR CITY COMMISSION MEETING
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA
AUGUST 21, 1990
because the City had failed to do what it was supposed to
do.
W~nen Mrs. Greenhouse's three minutes to speak elapsed, the
Mayor asked her to draw to a conclusion. Several moments
later, as she continued to speak, the Mayor again reminded
her that her three minutes were up. Remarks were exchanged
and the Mayor declared her out of order. Commissioner
Weiner and Commissioner Olenik asked that Mrs. Greenhouse be
allowed to continue. The remaining three Commissioners
would not support her continuing.
Commissioner Olenik asked if anyone had visited the station
since the June 20, 1990 Code Enforcement Board meeting.
Scott Blasie, Administrator of Code Enforcement stated that
since that time he had seen them pumping gas. He had not
seen them pumping gas lately, however. He understood they
still had one operative tank. Mr. Blasie believed the busi-
ness was working on bringing the other tank up to Code. Mr.
Blasie stated they would go back and revisit it. If the
business is not pumping gas, it is definitely in violation
of the stipulation.
City Manager Miller asked what is defined legally as
"principal, primary use." Would that mean more than 50%, or
pumping one tank of gas a week? City ~ttorney Cherof
responded it wouldn't necessarily mean more than 50% because
you could have a half dozen uses at a property and the total
might be 100%, but the individual ones might not exceed 30%.
Mr. Cherof thought it was a fact question as to whether it's
the principal use and the facts would be based upon what
they used to be doing there. If the City could find the
witnesses to come forward and to testify what he was doing
before compared to what he is doing now, it would prove that
point.
Other remarks were made. Staff was instructed to go out and
Check the situation the next day. If the business had
Violated the stipulation, they would have to decide whether
to go the Code Enforcement route or whether to close them
down. Commissioner Olenik thought the Code Enforcement
Board route was probably complete.
~ayor Moore remarked if another governmental entity had
determined the business can't pump gas because of the status
0f the tanks, then that should be reported to the City
~anager. The Mayor then instructed the City Manager visit
the site himself the next morning. The City Manager wanted
to check the validity of the report obtained by Mrs.
Greenhouse. The City Manager was asked to bring this topic
back at the next meeting.
