contract prices and to meet completion deadlines. Mr. Bressner added the contract did allow the City

verified he was prepared to commence work on November 28, 2006 as agreed.

Ann Valverde, 730 SW 3rd Avenue
Diane Wiser, 646 SW 1st Court
Bill Dier 700 SW 1st Avenue
The residents voiced their concerns for the safety of their children on the streets, the deterioration of
their quality of life, reduced property values, impact on resale values of the homes, noise and crime
increases, increased traffic on all streets, semi-truck traffic, ruination of Hibiscus Park and the safety
of all residents.
Herb Suss, Quail Run, questioned why a community should be destroy for the sake of a developer.
He agreed with the residents that alternative ingress and egress to the property should be
investigated.
Shirley Jaskiewicz, 1917 SW 13th Avenue, indicated the warehouse design would be an asset to
the community; however, an alternative route that would not impact the residential area should be
found.
Crockett Farnell, developer, thanked all the residents for their contribution and assured them his
intent was not to exclude anyone in the notification process. He simply followed the rules and
regulations. He stressed he would work with staff, the Commission and neighborhood to mitigate
any negative impact on the community. Mr. Farnell mentioned the prior business on the site did
. generate much more large truck traffic than the current design. He also noted the current vacant
buildings had resulted in an increase of criminal activity in the area. The demolition of the existing
buildings would curb those activities and greatly improve the property. Mr. Farnell advised he had
been willing to work with CSX for another railroad crossing to access the property; however, CSX
would not permit another crossing.
Mayor Taylor was in favor of bringing the matter back for reconsideration. He was not thoroughly
convinced that all possible alternative truck routes had been reviewed.
Commissioner Ensler pointed out a shortfall in the ordinance that required notification to only a
radius of 400 feet of the project. He emphasized that all property owners did have a right to build
on their property if it met the local rules and regulations. The posting of weight limit signs on all
streets not authorized as a truck route would also alleviate some of the problem. Commissioner
Ensler called for more clarification on the numbers and types of truck that would use the new facility.
Commissioner McCray urged the residents to form some type of homeowners association to assist
the residents in dealing with the developer and the City. He suggested a compromise be reached to
solve the issue.
Commissioner Rodriguez cautioned access to the property cannot be denied. He too suggested a
meeting between the developer and the community would be helpful He supported reconsideration
of the issue and thanked the public for coming forward with their complaints.

Meeting Minutes
Regular City Commission
Boynton Beach, FL
November 8, 2006
Vice Mayor McKoy noted the notice that was sent out did not mention anything about a proposed
truck route.
Mr. Bressner concurred that a meeting with the residents and developer would be advisable to
discuss the efforts of staff to minimize the impact on the residential area. He emphasized the
construction of the project did not lend itself to the use of any large tractor-trailer type trucks.
Mayor Taylor expressed concern over the daily traffic increase as a major impact on the
neighborhood. He realized the weight limit restrictions would be very difficult to enforce.
Attorney Cherof pointed out if the matter came back before the Commission a decision regarding
changes to the required notification rules would be needed. Mr. Bressner suggested a meeting be
scheduled and as much information as possible elating to the project be given to the residents to
address their concerns. Attorney Cherof advised that the interests of the property owner could not
be delayed indefinitely. Mr. Farnell agreed that a two week delay would not be unreasonable. It
was agreed the City Manager's office would facilitate a public meeting on the Ocean 95 Exchange
project.
XII.C3.
Proposed Ordinance No. 06-087 RE: Amending Ordinance 05-
060 to provide that the art fee does not apply to projects which had applications
pending on or before October 5, 2005 and providing that the art fee is payable as a
condition of issuance of the first Certificate of Occupancy.
(This item was taken out of order by previous motion.)
Attorney Cherof read Proposed Ordinance No. 06-087 by title only.
Mayor Taylor opened the issue for public hearing.
Suzette Urs, 611 NE 7th Avenue, Vice Chair of the Arts Commission, gave an overview of the
purpose of the Arts Commission. She emphasized that any change to the original Art in Public Places
Ordinance would have a crippling affect on the arts program.
Barbara Ready, 320 SW 13th Avenue, urged the Commission not to amend the original
Ordinance as it would decimate the arts budget.
Richard Beau Lieu, Chair of the Arts Commission, questioned if the Commission was
representing the citizens or the developers.
Christine Moeller, Diane Drive, expressed her surprise that the Ordinance was being changed
when it had only been in effect less than a year and was such an enhancement to the City of
Boynton Beach.
No one else coming forward, Mayor Taylor closed the public hearing.
Commissioner McCray was not in favor of changing the Ordinance.

November 8, 2006
Commissioner Ensler advised the Commission represented everybody and all the needs. He
suggested the fee should be paid at the time of the certificate of occupancy.
Debby Coles-Dobay, Public Arts Administrator, argued at least the 30% should be paid at time of
permitting. She stressed any change would drastically change the arts program and the budget.
Mayor Taylor stressed the market had drastically changed since the Ordinance was passed and
developers needed to be able to secure financing to even start projects or the issue of art would be
moot. There was agreement that the 30% should be collected at the time of permitting. Mr.
Bressner noted the Ordinance would need to be rewritten and brought back again for first reading.
A great deal of discussion continued on various suggestions of times and events that would require
the remaining 70% to be paid and then refunded. Commissioner McCray did not understand how
the issue became so complicated.
Motion
Commissioner Ensler moved that the ordinance does not apply to applications pending before the art
ordinance went into effect. Commissioner Rodriguez seconded the motion. The motion passed
unanimously.
Motion
Commissioner Ensler moved that 30% of the art fee should be paid at the time of permitting for only
the item being permitted. Vice Mayor McKoy seconded the motion. The motion passed
unanimously.
Motion
Commissioner Ensler moved that 70% of the fee be paid at the issuance of the certificate of
occupancy for the items in the certificate of occupancy. Commissioner Rodriguez seconded the
motion. (A vote on the motion was not taken)
Quintus Greene, Director of Development, discussed various scenarios that would complicate the
collection of the fee in a tiered or installment plan and the possibility that art would not appear
throughout a project.
Commissioner Ensler withdrew his motion involving the payment of the 70%.
Motion
Commissioner Rodriguez moved to table the entire matter until the issues could be straightened out.
Attorney Cherof suggested the entire matter be removed from the agenda since the ordinance would
have to be rewritten. There was consensus to remove the item and start over.
