CITY MANAGER' S REPORT
Developmen_~t=& Highway Planning in South County
Mr. Cheney reported there was a County 'Commission sponsored
meeting concerning development and highway planning in the
South County which brought the three cities and the County
commission together. We were represented by Councilmen
Zimmerman and Warnke and four County Commissioners were pre-
sent. The issue was about highway development and highway
programs keeping up with development. He told about exam-
ples given showing how we are unable to meet our road needs.
The County Commission has become aware as they make planning
and zoning decisions west of Delray Beach and Boca Raton,
they have an impact on the cities to the east with people
working and shopping there.
Construction of the Post Office
Mr. Cheney told about a meeting held with postal officials
and explained how much was not accomplished in reference to
their agreeing to Widen the street behind Publix and extend
the sidewalk to the south. They also indicated they have the
right to go ahead demanding use of the street and water sys-
tems. They indicated they might be able to do the sidewalk,
but not the ~additional footage. The real problem is mowing
the building ten feet to the west and they asked if we would
be willing to pay for that and he suggested our reply would
be negative. The building is under construction and he was
surprised they awarded the contract when they were aware there
were problems. He told about other officials talking to them
in our behalf, but not being able to obtain cooperation.
Mayor Cassandra referred to water and sewer service and Mr.
Cheney replied it is our-position they don't get water and
sewer until annexing and they cannot annex until meeting our
Conditions. Their position is they can demand the service.
It may end up in court.
Councilman 'Zimmerman asked if the matter of criss-cross
traffic on the site came up and Mr. Cheney replied affirma-
tively and he requested they take a look at it.
Councilman Warnke stated he thinks Mr. Cheney's efforts are
commendable on this with upholding our city codes. He moves
to give the City Manager a vote of confidence from the City
Council backing his efforts. Councilman Zimmerman seconded
the motion and it carried 5-0.

Boynton Beach BoUlevard Task Force
Mr. Cheney reported the items on the priority list of the
Boynton Beach Boulevard Task Force have been pretty well
achieved. They have been successful in"keeping issues be-
fore the County Commission. Three priority items have been
added: Old Boynton Road being improved and extended to
Military Trail, N. W. 22nd Avenue being extended to Military
Trail and the completion of Woolbright Road between Congress
Avenue and Military Trail.
Boynton Commerce Center
Mr. Cheney referred to problems at the Boynton Commerce Center
being discussed several meetings ago relative to dying trees,
dumpster locations, etc. and advised he received a memo from
Dorothy Moore and Kevin Hallahan, who have been Working with
them. The dead trees and landscaping will be replaced and the
dumpsters relocated within thirty days.
PUBLIC AUDIENCE
Parking of Cars on S..W. 6th Street
Ms. Marguerite C. Tolpo, 2839 S.W. 6th Street, told about
cars being parked on the street in front of 2818 S.W. 6th
Street and explained how it was a hazard for her to get out
of her driveway as well as being an eyesore to look at. She
told about contacting the police and how one officer said it
was not allowed, but the-second officer said it was all right.
She explained how it was hazardous with cars being parked in
this narrow street and showed some pictures.
Mr. Cheney informed her that~ the first officer, unfortunately,
was probably wrong because if there is an absence of no park-
ing signs on the street, then parking is allowed on 'the street.
There is no limit of how many cars people can have at their
home. There are many places in the city where people have
more cars than they can park in their driveway. No parking
signs apply to everybody and sometimes become a.nuisance for
those wanting company or guests. The issue of limited parking
for a period such as two hours is an enforcement problem.
Ms. Tolpo referred to one way traffic and Mr. Cheney informed
her if there is a multi-family area with a lot of traffic, a
one way street would be considered, but this obviously is not
wanted on 6th Street. He will take a look at it and report
back to the City Council.

There was some discussion regarding the exact relationship of
the parked cars to Ms. Tolpo's driveway with explanations
being given. Mayor Cassandra suggested having.the City Mana-
ger in conjunction with the Poli,ce Department contacting Ms.
Tolpo to see if there can be some amicable solution.
Councilman Warnke suggested that she talk to .the neighbors
about the cars and Ms, Tolpo'replied-there is no place for
them to move their cars to. Mr. Cheney agreed there is a
problem, but he will look into it.

Alteration of Burdine's Landscape Plan at Boynton Beach Mall
Councilman Zimmerman referred to the landscape plan for
Burdine's being altered at the Community Appearance Board
meeting last night and moved to correct the agenda to dis-
cuss this matter. Councilman Hester seconded and the motion
carried 5-0.
Mr. Cheney stated when Burdine's came in, they made a major
presentation originally on the quality of landscaping. They
were going to have a lot of vines on the walls contoured into
sculptured shapes. They came in last night to amend their
landscaping plan before the Community Appearance Board. What
they are going to do now is traditionatwith what the mall is
doing and is'not that special kind of .thing they sold us on.
Their reason was they could not get anyone to bid on that high
quality landscaping. This is a case where the code allows
amending the landscaping from something which was Very nice.
Councilman Warnke referred to attending the Community Appear-
ance Board meeting and stated in.place of the landscaping.
Burdine's planned to have originally, they are going to have
concrete sculpture on the side of the wall. They went before
the Community Appearance Board to vary their original plan to
a great extent. The Community Appearance Board granted the
request. He would like a legal opinion whether the Community
Appearance Board has the right to approve large changes in
landscape plans already approved by the City Council and staff.
Mr. Doney replied that he would have to look into this.
Mayor Cassandra asked if Burdine,s could be told to stop what
they are doing because of a question of legality. This is why
he suggested spending 'time on the code book. This is a ques-
tion whether the Community Appearance Board has the right to
make policy and the code book has to be addressed. Councilman
Warnke agreed that possibly Burdine's should be asked to hold
off until a legal opinion is received. Mayor Cassandra sug-
gested requesting the City Manager and'Planning Director con-
tacting Burdine's to advise the City Council is concerned
about what they are doing and there 'is a question of legality
in reference to their new landscaping. Also, maybe we should
expedite the new landscaping code.

a possible problem of cars parking in the swale area and asked
if there was any possibility of posting no parking signs in the

swale area in frOnt of his property. Mr. Cheney replied that
he would have the Police Department look at it. There should
be enough on-site parking. There is really no need to park in
the street and there will be a lot of truck traffic. He
thinks it is a good idea. The swale will make that industrial
area look nice. He thinks, we may want to address areas like
that and not allow, parking. We will do all we can to move in
that direction.
Mayor Cassandra questioned what kind of warehouse this would
be and Mr. Grimes replied that it will be rental warehouses
with bays. Mayor Cassandra asked if the environmental laws
would be enforced and Mr. Annunziato replied affirmatively.
Councilman Warnke moved to approve with the staff comments,

Mr. Cheney stated it is his understanding if this was dedicated
some time in the past and we give up our interest in the right-
of-way, it is abandoned to the owners on both sides of the
right-of,way since we did not buy it in.the first place. Mr.
Doney added it would depend upon the language on the plat and
whether easements were reserved in it.
Further discussion ensued regarding the use, value of property,
utility easements, etc.
Mayor Cassandra asked if the abandonment would result in giving
the applicant ~an additional ~t and Mr. Pagliarulo informed him
it would be subdiVided to add to properties on each side to
create another buildable lot, which at this time would require
variances. Mr. Cheney clarified that he would not get any more
lots, but would have the opportunity.to subdivide existing lots
to meet today's standards. Vice Mayor Ferreli also pointed out
that this street could only be extended two blocks and does no~
appear to serve any practical purpose.
Mayor Cassandra asked if anyone wished to speak in favor or
against this request and received no response.
Vice Mayor Ferrell made a motion to approve the abandonment of
the 50 ft. right-of-way, but not the 15 ft. service street.
Mr. Annunziato suggested that it~be subject to Mr. Clark's
memo and Vice Mayor Ferrell agreed. Councilman Hester seconded
the motion. Under discussion, Councilman Warnke stated he still
has a problem with title to the original plat and wording of
that and questions if we are operating legally according to the
background. Mr. Doney informed him that he think, s it can
legally be abandoned, but selling would be questionable. The
real finding would be whether there is fo~seeable public use.
Councilman Zimmerman asked if this was not abandoned, would
the developer be required to improve that street and Mr.
Annunziato replied that'our Position has been the developer
has been responsible for improving the street when the staff
and COuncil felt it was necessary. Vice Mayor. Ferrell asked
if in this situation, where the street would only go two
blocks, would he foresee that recommendation and Mr. Annunziato
replied that he concurs with Mr. Clark's comments. Mr. Cheney
remarked he thinks we would have a hard time in this case,
with all the lots facing on east/west streets, to get this
paved since it does not go anywhere. Councilman Zimmerman
referred to the north end of this right~of-way remaining and
Mr. Cheney stated a similar request wiI1~ probably be submitted
in the future. Councilman Warnke stated he was still taking
into consideration the unanimous denial by the Planning &

Consider request for an a.mendment to the Future Land Use
Element of the Comprehensive. Plan-from High Density Resi-
dential to Local Retail and for a rezoning 'from R-3 Multi-
Family Residential to C-3 Community Commercial for a
possible future addition to the Sunshine Square Shopping
Center located at S.E. 18th-Avenue. This request was
submitted by Joseph Pollock (The Building.-Company) for
Robert J. Rose and Robert J. Rose, Jr.
Mr. Annunziato explained the location. He informed the Council
the Planning & Zoning Board, after conducting a public hearing,
did recommend this request be approved by a vote of 5-2. The
dissent was based on the Planning Department's recommendation
to approve in part and deny in part. The basis of the Planning
Department's recommendation concerned-the future addition of
S.E. 3rd Street and land uses. S.E. 3rd Street exists in part
on paper and in part built and was added to the comprehensive
plan to enhance circulation in the area north/south to the
~shopping area from 23rd Avenue. The issue raised was where
do you draw the line and what impact does it have on. future
land uses. As proposed, the commercial line would be some-
what south of S.E. 18th Avenue and would have a negative
impact to develop residential on the other side of 3rd Street.
Once you begin to project commercial zoning south of 18th
Avenue with west of 3rd Street into a commercial category,
we are talking about lands marginally useful for commercial
zoning and could be creating a strip along the F.E.C. Rail-
road. C-3 uses are oriented to a highway with large traffic
volumes. The result would be having it used for purposes
less commercial. The property owner would be left with a
parcel o'f land not developable if the Property is split.
The Planning & Zoning Board did recommend that the appli-
cant's request be approved as submitted.
Councilman Warnke asked if the right-of.-way for future S.E.
3rd Street is dedicated and Mr. Annunziato replied that it
exists in part~ Councilman Warnke asked if the one bisect-
ing the property is dedicated and Mr. Annunziato replied
negatively, but it would be our recommendation that the
applicant convey one-half right-of-way to the public for
3rd Street.
COuncilman Warnke questioned if the property would be used
for building or parking for the shopping center and Mr.
Annunziato replied that he thinks it is their intention
to provide additional parking in that area with primary uses
being on parcels to the east.
After further comments about division of the property and
actual uses, Mayor Cassandra asked if the applicant was
present.

DEVELOPMENT PLANS
Consider request submitted by Robert C. Wade, agent for
the Catania Development Corporation, for a modification
to the previously approved 'master plan for the Quail Lake
West Planned Unit Development.
Mr. Annunziato explained the location and advised the proposal
is to change the type of units, but not the count. They feel
it is more appropriate not to have three story units in that
area. The Technical Review Board did review the plans and
found no changes in impact and recommend a finding of no sub-
stantial change.
Mr. Robert Wade showed a colored site plan indicating what was
proposed. He advised the plan which had been approved called
for a three story building over parking and they felt that
product would be a little too intensive for the site. They
did a market analysis and are recommending reducing the height
of the building with two story garage homes. They feel a low
profile would be more in keeping with the heighborhood.
Vice Mayor Ferrell made a motion to approve this request with
a finding of no substantial change, seconded by Councilman
Zimmerman. No discussion. Motion carried 5-0.

plans to be processed through the Building Department, which
will take at least six weeks. Concurrently, they can go
through the process with the Downtown Review Board. They
will agree to all staff comments and to al/ requirements of
the Downtown Review Board.
Mr. Cheney stated when'.this variance was first approved,
there was great concern that we were going to see at this
prime location a one story building.' He thOught it was too
bad they were not intensifying the land with a four story
office building, but the plans were for a shopping center
with some character. Probably, two stories is a pluS to
create intensity in the downtown area. However, his con-
cern was they would nOt have to go through the other parts
of the review process, but now they are willing to go to the
Downtown Review Board and will agree with their requirements.
With this commitment on their part, he thinks we can arrive
at what we want.
Mayor Cassandra clarified that the City Manager is recommend-
ing to the City Council to approve this request to go ahead
with submitting building plans and they will follow the
procedure required ~by the new CBD ordinance. Councilman
Warnke so moved, seconded by Vice Mayor Ferrell. No discus-
sion. Motion carried 5-0.
Consider review of proposed amendment to Zoning Regula-
tions to allow automobile rental as a conditional use in
the C-3 Community Commercial Zoning DiStrict.
Mr. Annunziato gave the background of this request and advised
the recommendation was automobile rental could be allowed as
a conditional use in the C-3 zoning district, without ad-
versely impacting other C-3 uses, with adoption of the follow-
ing language: "Rental of new ~passenger automobiles (as a
conditional use), limited to 10 vehicles, and limited to an
accessory use to a lawful principal use.. Rental shall not
be construed to include any leasing or sale of vehicles."
Mr. Cheney questioned the definition of "new vehicle" and Mr.
Annunziato suggested "current year model".
Vice Mayor Ferrell referred to the limitation of ten vehicles
and Mr. Annunziato clarified this would mean no more than ten
would be parked on the lot at one time and the conditional
use issue would address where the cars would be parked.
Vice Mayor Ferrell asked if limiting to accessory use meant
that Hertz could have cars parked as an accessory to their
office in West Palm Beach and Mr. Annunziato replied nega-
tively.

MAY 21, 1985
Mayor Cassandra stated this is the first travel agent he has
seen using rental cars as an accessory use. He explained how
normally the travel agents arrange for cars at the airport of
your destination. He is not in favor of this for travel agents.
Mayor Cassandra referred to having discussed conditional uses
and stated we should correct our codes before adding more con-
ditional uses.
Mayor Cassandra then referred to not addressing the return of
vehicles and stated these usually come back after hours and
will be parked any place. He is not in favor of changing
the use of C-3 to rental cars in this particular area at the
present moment. He does not believe this is a necessary
accessory use for ~a travel agent.
Mr. Annunziato responded that they did not research whether
this was an accessory use for a travel agency, but considered
the definition for conditional use. If a request was sub-
mitted, 'they would probably call 50 travel agencies and check
usage. Mayor CaSsandra suggested that possibly this should be
checked out before making .the zoning change.
After further discussion, Councilman Hester made a motion to
instruct the attorney to prepare an ordinance to allow auto-
mobile rental as a conditional use in the C~3 Community Com-
mercial Zoning District, seconded by Councilman Warnke.
Under discussion, Councilman Zimme~man added that through this
ordinance process, we will have time to do more research.
Motion carried 4-1 with Mayor Cassandra dissenting.
Consider request fOr a determination of consistency with
the adopted Comprehensive Plan for the proposed Planned
Commercial Distric_~t_Regulations.
Mr. Annunziato outlined the background in the preparation of
these PCD regulations and advised the Planning & Zoning Board
recommended unanimously to approve these regulations. The
one issue receiving the most discussion concerned the minimum
acreage for the PCD zone and the agreement Has reached to
require five contiguous acres. Taken into consideration was
what we would control and regulate and this gives the City
Council and Planning & Zoning Board great latitude to review
plans and impose conditions. He explained how there are also
benefits to the applicant. Also, we did have this set of reg-
ulations~reviewed by private and public sector planners and
incorporated their comments. He read pages 10 and 11 and
explained the consideration of substantial change.

In reference to substantial change, Councilman Warnke stated
he didn't have any problem w~th the Planning & Zoning Board
approving if less than 10%, but questions if it should be
subject to ratification by the City Council. Mayor Cassandra
added that his concern is the thin line of policy making ver-
sus a variance type request; policy making is the function
of this Council. Mr. Annunz~ato stated the zoning decision
is the policy decision. Thi~ is a deviation and~the sugges-
tion is maybe 10% is that line. Vice Mayor Ferrell responded
that 10% sounds fine, but the question is where it goes from
that point. Councilman Warnke suggested if the Planning &
Zoning Board determines less than 10% of measurable impact
in their opinion, then it could be ratified by the City Coun-
cil under.the Consent Agenda+ Mayor CaSsandra questioned
ow 10~ would be'defined and Mr. Annunzlato explained how
it was in terms of measurable impacts 'After further com-
e, ts, it was agreed if the impact considering water, sewer
~nd traffic is under 10%, itlcould come to the City Council
~or ratification under the Consent Agenda.
Councilman Warnke referred to.the time limit being 18 months
on page 9 and suggested that it be 12 months'to b~ consistent
with other sections of the code. Mr. Cheney explained that
this is different with having more specifics and he doesn't
think 18 months is too long.. Mr. Annunziato added that 18
months is the same figure inlthe other two planned districts.
After further discussion abo~

Consider approval of agreement for Water Service Outside
the City Limits - Wilmer Bauer
Mr. Cheney informed the Council this request is for one lot
on Hypoluxo Road where the water line goes in front of it and
it is within our utility service area. They will pay all ex-
penses to hook into the line.
Councilman Zimmerman referred to this being west of Lawrence
Road and questioned why the annexation clause was included in
the agreement and Mr. Cheney replied that supports the consis-
tency of the agreement. Councilman Zimmerman referred to this
disturbing people living west of Lawrence Road and Mr. Cheney
replied that he is aware of that, but explained how there was
very little probability of this ever being annexed. He thinks
if we want to be consistent in trying to square out the boun-
dary, we should continue the policy of the condition for water
is to annex when contiguous if we will take them.
Mayor Cassandra referred-to the possibility of this five acres
being developed for more than one house and'Councilman Warnke
replied that a larger line would be required and it would have
to come before us again if the amount of'wa~er had to be in-
creased. Mr. Cheney added if they are i~volved with rezoning
in the county, a letter will be required from~the city stating
whether there is adequate water supply. Councilman Warnke
pointed out this is just one house and they don't have any
water to drink.
Councilman Warnke moved to approve this water service agree-
ment with Mr. Wilmer Bauer', seconded by Councilman Zimmerman.
Motion carried 5-0.
Consider approval of Royalty Agreement~- Data Processing/

Mr. Cheney read his memo dated May 21, 1985, giving a full

doing it.
Councilman Warnke asked if the proceeds go to the Police Dept.
and Mr. Cheney informed him. they are put into a separate fund
and some improvements to Data Processing have been made.
Mayor Cassandra questioned why the maximum total was $50,000
and not just continue with 15% and Mr. Cheney replied that is
where the negOtiations ended and we will get all changes they
put in.

Mayor Cassandra asked if there would be any legal problems and
Mr. Doney replied that he agrees with the agreement, but won-
ders if the language in "Transfer of System" covers the city
getting any changes to the system. Possibly "additional
changes and improvements provided to the city at no cost"
should be added. Councilman Warnke agreed to add this to his
motion.
Mr. Doney continued that he has a couple other comments.
Under No. 2, there is reference ~to marketing the system to
other governmental or law enforcement agencies and he would
suggest that this say to anyone. Under No. 5, he had a
question of this possiblY conflicting with the public records
law and suggests adding a proviso. Under No. 9, they suggest
if there is any litigation, it should take place in Orange
County, whiCh is not in the city's best intereSt.
Mayor Cassandra clarified that the motion has been amended
to include the legal recommended changes by the City Attorney to
be addressed with H.T.E. and agreement to such. This is subject
to the City Attorney approving the legal terminology. Motion
carried 5-0.
Authorize land acquisition for expansion of Wastewater
Treatment Plant
Mr. Cheney informed the Council that Resolution No. 85-DD
authorizes the city to employ the services of James Vance
to carry out eminent domain proceedings with Delray Beach.
This is in agreemen~ with what was discussed at the last
meeting of the South Central Regional Wastewater Treatment &
Disposal. Board. This does not in any way eliminate the oppor-
tunity for Mr. Federspiel to continue to negotiate land ac-
quisition with Shell Oil Company.
Mayor Cassandra clarified this is three acres at the south
end entranceway and Mr. Cheney added it is the frontage
from the canal south for three acres. '
Vice Mayor Ferrell moved to approve Resolution No. 85-DD,
seconded by Councilman Warnke. Motion carried 5-0.

Mr. Joe Swan added that they have contacted a survey company
which has done a lot of work in that vicinity and their
figure is $7,000. Councilman Warnke questioned the funding
and Mr. Cheney informed him it will come from the reserve
from income for capital facilities charges (utility fund
balance).
After further discussion, Councilman Hester moved to approve,
seconded by Vice Mayor Ferrell. Motion carried 5-0.
Removal of One Alternate from Community Appearance Board
Mayor Cassandra stated this is the only board having three
alternates and he thinks it should be consistent and have two
alternates. Councilman Zimmerman commented that the Community
Appearance Board had a problem getting a quorum last night and
Vice Mayor Ferrell suggested changing the other boards to
three alternates. Mayor Cassandra suggested that it be con-
sidered as it requires an ordinance change and the code book
has both. CoUncilman Warnke suggested checking to see how
the ~ommunity Appearance Board 'feels.
Mayor Cassandra stated he would like to direct the City
Mana~er to request that Kevin Hallahan be on the Community
Appearance Board as a consultant instead of Bob Donovan.
Mr. Cheney informed him that Kevin Hallahan has attended the
meetings many times, but has found his attendance uncomfort-
able.
Councilman Zimmerman moved to table this, seconded by Vice

Discuss Possibility of Fulltime City Attorney
Mayor Cassandra referred to the way the city has grown and
stated he thinks a concerted effort should be made on re-
searching the need for a fulltime City Attorney. The cost
factor should be considered. The pros and cons should be
presented to the~Council for consideration. He would like
approval from the City Council for the City Manager to re-
search the cost factor and other pros and cons that he sees
fit.

MINUTES - REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA
MAY 21, 1985
Councilman Warnke responded that this has come up several
times. Right now, we do not have the space for a fulltime
City Attorney. The cost of setting up is considerable.
Delray Beach is paying $200,000 per year for fulltime legal
and we are paying $90,000. He does not think it is needed
at the present 'time. After the new city hall is built, he
feels it would be more appropriate.
Mayor Cassandra stated an interim area could ~be used, such
as the City Council area which has minimum use now. He
enumerated the approximate costs for a law library, secre-
tary, etc. and stated he feels the cost could be $50,000
plus benefits. He thinks it should be given research.
Vice Mayor Ferrelt agreed we could look into it, but he does
not favor doing it. He thinks the quality you get with hav-
ing fulltime on staff is just what you pay for. Also, an
assistant would be needed. Costwise, he has not seen one
city come out cheaper. Councilman Zimmerman agreed.
Mayor Cassandra suggested having the research done and then
expressing opinions. Councilman Warnke replied that he would
be in favor of havin9 the facts before making a decision.
Vice Mayor Ferrell Said if it doesn'~t cost anything, he would
be for it and Mr. Cheney advised that the manhour cost would
be involved. Mayor Cassandra ascertained the majority of
consensus is to proceed with research to give us more infor-
mation and requested the City Manager to submit a report in
1% months.
Request for Rope on Beach
Mayor Cassandra stated a petition was mailed.to him requesting
a rope at the south end of the beach. He thinks there should
be an investigation made and an answer given. Mr. Cheney
informed him this has been researched over and over ~ain with
the last research being done in October 1984. It was decided
there should not be any ropes. Mr. Charles Frederick added
that a rope has been installed in the north central section
where most of the guards are. He would not recommend a rope
at the far south end. Mr. Cheney stated that a response will
be sent with copies of the research material.
.Request for Median on Seacrest Boulevard
Mayor Cassandra stated he has received a request from Village
Royale on the Green in reference to a median strip on North
Seacrest Boulevard. Mr. Cheney stated this is another request
which has been researched over and over again. On August 21,
1984, in response to a request under Public Audience, it was

MINUTES - REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA
MAY 21, 1985
pointed out the original recommendation pursued by COuncilman
Joe deLong was for a median. The staff did a study and recom-
mended a median. There were several meetings and discussions
and it was concluded there c'ould not be a median because it was
not feasible. He explained how the necessary width could not
be obtained in the existing right-of-way, plus with the number
of driveways along North Seacrest Boulevard, u-turns would
create hazards. It does not meet any current standards for
road design. With great reluctance, we had to agree with the
county staff. It was also decided to put the sidewalk at the
edge of the curb in order to avoid having unmaintained grass
strips. We are in sympathy with the idea of having a median
and tried, but it cannot work.
Mr. Morton Goldstein stated the petition.presented represents
880 unit owners in Village Royale on the Green.- They are just
asking the city to develop a resolution to send to the county
again. Councilman Zimmerman replied that he thinks a median
would look nice, but we had trouble getting what we got and
explained how it would not be to our advantage to request a
change now, Councilman Warnke agreed with the hazards being
created by u-turns and stated we had to fight to get the road
constructed on the 2000 year plan.
Mayor Cassandra ascertained it was the consensus of the majority
to be to just get the road built now.
