Ms. Ross questioned if the noise complaint from the marina renovation involved the
Noise Ordinance. Ms. Bright explained the CRA had embarked on redoing the
submerged portion of the marina with the $2 million received from the County's
Waterway Bond Grant. It was being done on private land and all City Codes and
Ordinances would have to be followed. Ms. Bright confirmed with the Code Compliance
Administrator and the Police that there was compliance with all the regulations. The
pilings were all destroyed during the hurricanes of 2004/2005 and they had to be
repaired before moving forward with the next phase. County Commissioner Abrams had
been consulted. Boynton Beach would have the first marina village along the
intracoastal waterway opened for economic development.
C. CRA Media
D. Habitat for Humanity of South Palm Beach County Thank You Letter for
$500 Donation to Collegiate Challenge 2010
Ms. Bright reported the volume of calls relating to the economic development program
had increased dramatically. The rent subsidy, tenant improvement and signage had
resulted in an average of 30 calls a week attempting to take advantage of the program.
It was tested as a pilot and demand may require further funding to support the need. It
was a way for the CRA to partner with private developers and make small business
ownership a reality.
Mr. Weiland added an economic development package would not have been necessary
a couple years ago. The CRA should be the economic spark plug to assist retaining
businesses and attracting new businesses. Hopefully in the future the need would not
be so great.
Vice Chair Hay commented it was a win-win for everyone and he was happy it was
succeeding.
Mr. Weiland discussed Item D and explained the funds were earmarked to help feed
college kids who volunteer their spring break to build homes. The donation will help
both the students and the organization to assist in building a home or two.
Vice Chair Hay suggested visiting 3rd Street and NW 6th Avenue for a first hand look at
the progress being made. It was a team effort and very inspiring.
Ms. Ross commended Margee Walsh, the Marketing and Communications Director, on
the two articles; one featured in the South Florida Business Journal and the other in the
Boynton Forum. One press release outlined the three small business programs.
Ms. Bright announced a portrait of Buck Buchanan would be pUblished in an article in
Florida Trends that will feature Boynton Beach as a place to live and grow in Palm
Beach County.

IX. Public Comments: (Note: comments are limited to 3 minutes in duration)
Nancy Chandler, 914 NE ih Street, pointed out the official record contains an illegible
map of the brownfield areas and it was not marked Exhibit A. She suggested it should
be investigated if the map could be reproduced in color. Attorney Cherof responded the
original document and exhibit on record with the Clerk's office has a large format that
could easily be read.
No one else coming forward. the public comments were closed.
X. Old Business:
A. Consideration of Supporting Ongoing Maintenance of Landscape for SE
4th Street.
Vivian Brooks, Assistant Director, reported the City had asked if the CRA would
consider ongoing maintenance of trees ~'anted in the median on SE 4th between Ocean
Avenue and SE 12th as part of the 4 Street Avenue utility project. The City was
seeking a grant to plant 60 to 70 drought tolerant sabal palms. The maintenance items
would be fertilization. mulching, trimming and litter control. There would be reclaimed
water for irrigation. Originally the CRA was to pay for all above ground improvements
such as street lights, landscaping and sidewalks to enhance the roadway with an
estimated cost of $5.7 million. The bids came in at $2.7 million. The current agreement
calls for the eRA to pay $973,000 of the project costs. There was an award from Mary
McCarty's monies of $300,000 for a total cost of $1.4 million. The City was awarded a
grant from South Florida Water Management in the amount of $995,600. Ms. Brooks
pointed out the CRA was carrying the bulk of the cost of the utility project. The
projected annual cost of maintenance is $9,600. Staff did not recommend approval.
Mr. Weiland realized it was originally a utility project funded by the City and the CRA
subsequently agreed to pay a big part of the cost and carry 83% of the total expense.
The City was unable to fund the Sister City program, the Holiday Extravaganza and this
project was being passed to the CRA. He urged the Board to not support the
maintenance expense and he would not vote to approve the expense. It should be the
City's responsibility.
Ms. Ross agreed with staff's recommendation to not approve the request as did Vice
Chair Hay.

Meeting Minutes
Community Redevelopment Agency Board
Boynton Beach, FL
February 9, 2010
Motion
Ms. Ross moved to not recommend approval of this request. Mr. Weiland seconded the
motion. The motion passed unanimously.
B. Discussion and Direction on the Roberts Purchase.
Attorney Cherof explained there was a contract to purchase property from the Roberts
that is currently encumbered by an IRS tax lien. The lien has not been cleared for the
scheduled closing that was extended until February 17, 2010. The request of the
Roberts was not timely filed with the IRS to have the lien released. The
recommendation was to go forward with the closing and hold the proceeds in escrow
until the IRS lien was paid. Any remaining proceeds would then go to the Roberts. It
was likely that the Roberts would agree to the proposed arrangement. Staff
recommended there be an agreement to close in escrow on February 17, 2010.
Motion
Ms. Ross moved to approve to close in escrow per the City Attorney's description. Mr.
Weiland seconded the motion. The motion passed unanimously.
XI. New Business:
A. Consideration of Funding The Florida Fishing Academy for children
between the ages of 8-12 living within the CRA district.
Ms. Bright recalled, upon receipt of the Juvenile Justice Grant, the City had created the
Youth Violence Prevention Program. The Florida Fishing Academy had been
consistently funded for the ages 8-12. Captain Borchu of the Academy had requested
permission from the City to rent the bait shop. Ms. Bright understood the City had
decided it was not a suitable location. Last year the CRA was approached for funding
an additional program for the age group 8-12 who are at a higher risk for gang
participation. It was not approved in the budget. A presentation of the program had
been given to the Community Committee. Additionally, the City had to cut funding for
after-care programs at the Carolyn Sims Center. Mr. Rodriguez had asked for
reconsideration of the request. Staff was recommending approval. It meets with the
adopted Downtown Master Plan and the Heart of Boynton Plan for youth activities. The
cost is $11,856 and there is money in the Heart of Boynton Implementation Strategy
budget that could cover the cost.
Mr. Weiland questioned if the brochure included in the CRA packet was inappropriate
as it appeared to be an advertisement for this business. Ms. Bright stressed that
Captain Borchu does try to offset the cost of the program. The trips are every Saturday
for the duration of the school year.

Meeting Minutes

February 9,2010
Ms. Ross was impressed with Captain Borchu and his program. It was unfortunate it
did not work out at Boat Club Park. The idea of "hooked on fishing, not drugs" is a
worthy cause for everyone to champion. She supported the program.
Vice Mayor Hay was willing to help the kids, but was concerned about the drain on the
HOB budget that was dwindling. Ms. Bright reported there was approximately $500,000
in the HOB funds. The funds are being used as almost a fac;ade or residential
improvement grant. Ms. Ross stressed the program did target children in the Heart of
Boynton area.
Mr. Weiland agreed with Vice Chair Hay's concern because the money was earmarked
to obtain properties for redevelopment. Any future revenues for the fund were doubtful.
The amount being only $11,000, Mr. Weiland supported the expense to help younger
children and lead them in the proper direction.
Vice Chair Hay supported the program, but cautioned the Board and staff about
diminishing the HOB budget funds. Mr. Weiland agreed and reiterated his remarks
regarding the Fire Department raising money for various sport programs. It was
important to give kids an organized activity rather than standing on a comer with a milk
jug trying to raise the funds.
Motion
Ms Ross moved to approve Item A., consideration of funding for the Florida Fishing
Academy for children between the ages of 8-12. Mr. Weiland seconded the motion.
The motion passed unanimously.
B. Consideration of entering into an agreement with Deborah and Leonard
Marucci to design public art for the Se8crest Streetscape Project in the
amount of $6,500.
Ms. Brooks indicated the art was part of the Seacrest redesign and was being paid for
by $1.9 million of stimulus funding. The ARRA monies would cover the art but not the
design of the art or the streetscape. There was a piece of art previously purchased for
the comer of MLK and Seacrest by the same artist. The new design would for be four
pieces to compliment the piece already purchased that would be placed on each corner
of MLK and Sea crest to create an Iconic intersection. Staff recommended the CRA pay
for the design and work with the community to create the design concept. A share of
the $1.9 million will pay for the construction of the art and the Installation.
Mr. Weiland clarified there would be four large pieces of art to be placed at each corner
of Seacrest and MLK. Ms. Brooks speculated the pieces would be made of brushed
aluminum with laser cut-outs to compliment the Butterfly Mandella piece already
purchased.

Vice Chair Hay did not want a repeat of the disagreement over the mural at the tennis
courts. There were people in the community that thought portions of the mural were
unacceptable. He had researched graffrti art and spoke with the artist to learn more
about the type of art. He stressed the CRA and the artists should have as much input
from the community as possible to avoid any problems. Ms. Bright added Ms. Coles-
Dobay, Public Arts Administrator, would be holding the meetings and making flyers to
be distributed noticing the meetings and their purpose. She was provided with the total
contact list for the Community Committee who selected the Butterfly Mandella piece.
Motion
Mr. Weiland moved to approve consideration of entering into an agreement with
Deborah and Leonard Marucci to design art for the corner Seacrest Streetscape
Project, in the amount of $6,500. Ms. Ross seconded the motion. The motion passed
unanimously.
C. Consideration of entering into a Direct Incentive Funding Agreement with
Wal-Mart Stores South, LLC
Ms. Brooks remarked the agreement was the result of two years of work between eRA
staff, property owners, police, the City and Wal-Mart Stores. There is a gap in the
project because the property was purchaSed at the height of the market and approved
for a mixed-use project. The market dictated otherwise. The land use and zoning had
been changed back to commercial. The store is 95,000 square feet. The agreement is
in essence, TIF funding, payable upon completion of the project and upon receipt of the
property appraiser's documentation for the project. It is tied to the creation of jobs. The
store will provide the equivalent of 150 full time jobs. It is a ten-year term with it being
front loaded to help offset the project gap. Wal-Mart will receive 75% of the TIF
generated in years one through six and 25% of the TIF funds in years six through ten.
The remaining amounts will be retained with the CRA. The total estimated subsidy
under the terms of the agreement, is $406,000 or $2,700 a job. The jobs would be a
good match for the residents, the majority of which only have a high school diploma or
GED. The store will also provide goods and services that are not easy to obtain on the
east side of the City.
The site plan and elevations have been upgraded above the standard Wal-Mart with
articulated elevations. The site has been a source of problems for the City of Boynton
Beach and the Town of Gulfstream with the night clubs and blight. The project would
bring in revenue to support CRA programs over time, and the project is located on the
most used Palm Tran route in the County. Staff recommended approval of the
agreement.

Ms. Bright added the CRA had been working for three years to assist in the removal of
the blight. The direct incentive funding was based on the lack of employment in
America. The national average of unemployment is 9.7% and the State of Florida Is
11.8%. She affirmed the project meets not only the redevelopment plan for Federal
Highway, it also meets the Economic Development Plan adopted by the Board and
speaks to the heart of the housing needs assessment. The base starting salary of a
Wal-Mart job is $8.75. The jobs are not minimum wage and range up to management
level. The CRA tried to meet the needs of the development plan and the needs of Wal-
Mart to close the gap.
Vice Chair Hay noted with the current job market he would support anything that added
jobs and he welcomed the project. He inquired if there was a traffic study completed of
the Intersection. Ms. Brooks replied it had been completed. There would be no addition
to the traffic volume.
Mr. Weiland inte~ected the intersection at Woolbright and Federal Highway was rated a
"D" intersection and the new development on the comer did not change the rating or
add any lanes. The two intersections and traffic should be comparable.
Mike Rumpf, Planning and Zoning Director, introduced Chris Hagan with Kimley-Horn
Associates, a traffic engineer, who advised on a daily or peak-hour basis, the project
would not generate more traffic than the previously existing shopping center and
outparcel night club that previously occupied the lot.
Based on the Comprehensive Plan, Federal Highway Corridor Plan and the current
economic crisis, it was important that the project be considered, according to Ms. Ross.
Vice Chair Hay opened the issue for public comment.
Susan Motley, representing Wal-Mart along with Michele Blair of Government
Relations with Wal-Mart and Bob Godding, Regional Marketing Manager were present.
She indicated the project was exciting for both the City of Boynton Beach and Wal-Mart.
Ms. Motley stressed that anyone in Wal-Mart can rise up to be an executive with Wal-
Mart. The beginning wages with Wal-Mart were not minimum wage positions. It was
also a leader in environmental building incorporating many green standards.
Ms. Motley described the store as a full-service Wal-Mart with a full service grocery
store component, as well as general merchandise. The Super Centers are over 200,000
square feet, but Wal-Mart has been able to present all the products in a smaller footprint
to integrate Into more urban areas. She displayed a slide presentation locating the
building, parking, loading docks and ingress and egress points. The location would
include a huge amount of landscaping and a right turn lane into the main entrance on
Gulfstream Boulevard. The access on Old Dixie Highway would be the truck delivery
entrance and the exit would be south onto Federal Highway. The truck bays allow the

Community Redevelopment Agency Board
Boynton Beach, FL
February 9,2010
trucks to back into the building decreasing the noise of the loading and unloading. The
architectural design would include more windows than other store fronts with upgraded
designs on the exterior and more landscaping.
The TIF monies would be paid out of taxes paid by the development itself. It should
energize the area and Boynton Beach will be in the forefront of an urban, smaller, but
full-service Walmart.
Ms. Ross disclosed she had met with Ms. Motley and one of the representatives. Mr.
Weiland disclosed they had asked to meet with him and he was unable to do so.
Michele Blair, indicated Wal-Mart had been operating in the State of Florida for over 25
years with 300 properties with the base operation offices in South Florida. Rob Godding
would be overseeing the store. Last year the corporation donated $14.2 million to local
communities and each store has approximately $1 million for donations. The Boynton
Beach facility donated approximately $32,000 to $35,000 to local community groups last
year. Each store can give grants ranging from $500 to $1.000 each. The recipients
vary from schools to other charities in the local areas.
Mr. Weiland suggested being more creative in the approach to deal with shoplifting and
enhance awareness that shoplifting will not be accepted and will be prosecuted. There
is a high volume of calls for shoplifting at the Super Walmart. Ms. Blair assured Wal-
Mart would be more than willing to collaborate in an effort to curb shoplifting because it
impacted the business as well as the associates. She added the average hourly
associate in the State of Florida receives $11.74 per hour. They can also receive
bonuses based on the overall store's performance.
Rob Godding, a 23-year employee of Wal-Mart, had started working putting bicycles
together for $3.35 an hour and is now a district manager. He is an example of the
incentive to new employees to make each store a success. Mr. Weiland had a neighbor
who had retired from Wal-Mart after 25 years.
Ms. Motley advised there would be an art feature to the project at the entrance. Ms.
Bright added the art feature was a requirement in exchange for purchasing the strip
club.
Barbara Ready, 329 SW 13th Avenue, established the truck route could take large
trucks through a historic area. Mr. Weiland indicated it was a small unincorporated
pocket that was more of an eyesore. Ms. Ready advised one of the dwellings was listed
on the Palm Beach County directory of historic homes. She was sure the residents
would not be happy with semi-trucks traversing their neighborhood. Ms. Bright noted
the trucks may arrive from the south on Gulfstream Boulevard or from the north on Dixie
Highway. Ms. Motley concurred the trucks could come from either direction onto
Dixie Highway so the trucks would not cross the parking lot.

Meeting Minutes

Boynton Beach, FL
February 9,2010
Mr. Weiland expressed his concern that two board members were not present and the
possibility of a reconsideration request. Attorney Cherof advised a quorum was present
that can take action on any item on the agenda. A Board Member can make a request
for reconsideration in the future. The custom at the Board level and Commission level
has been that a member who does not vote has the ability to make a motion for
reconsideration.
Brian Edwards, 620 NE 9th Avenue, felt strongly it was a positive project for the City.
He was concerned the surrounding property owners and developments had not
received adequate notice and were given the opportunity for input. He commended the
CRA and staff for the perfect solution to an otherwise blighted area.
Mr. Weiland echoed Mr. Edwards remarks that the south end of Boynton Beach had
suffered for many years with an undesirable location and activities. It would be a huge
benefit to Boynton Beach and Delray Beach for Federal Highway to rebound.
Motion
Ms. Ross moved to approve Item C under New Business to enter into a Direct Incentive
Funding Agreement with Wal-Mart Store South. Mr. Weiland seconded the motion. The
motion passed unanimously,
D. Consideration of Application to HUD for funding in the amount of $294,000
to be used for repairs to the Schoolhouse Children's Museum
Ms. Brooks advised the matter was brought by City staff. Representative Klein had
earmarked these funds to build a fire and police training center. There was confusion
when the money came to the CRA and the money was not used for some time. Debbie
Majors, Grants Coordinator, managed to get HUD to agree to re-program the monies for
education purposes at the Children's Schoolhouse Museum for repairs at the facility.
The CRA would be the fiscal agent for the federal funding. Presently the application is
before the Board for approval. There is an administrative fee negotiated with the City as
5%. The monies would be used to replace windows and make necessary repairs.
Mr. Weiland had researched with other municipalities and the average administrative
fee was 20%. He felt the CRA was settling for less and the fee should be 10% to 12%.
Vice Chair Hay agreed the fee should be higher. Ms. Brooks noted it is a good project
in the town square area. There would be extra work, especially with federal funding
which had more intensive requirements. There would be a high degree of responsibility
on the Agency and possible repercussions if the paperwork is not completed accurately
and timely.
Debbie Majors, Grant Coordinator, advised the funding was a much shorter time period
than with other federal funding. It would not be a long project with only a couple
11
Meeting Minutes
Community Redevelopment Agency Board
Boynton Beach, FL
February 9, 2010
invoices. The City would bid the work, award the bid and pay the contractor. It would
be responsible as a sub-grantee to abide by every compliance regulation. Ms. Majors
pointed out the estimated cost of the windows may be higher than the grant award. For
several years funding had been sought for the building and it was not available due to
the lack of matching funds. There are 50 to 60 openings involved.
Kurt Bressner, City Manager, opined that 10% was too high and even 5% could be high.
He suggested the CRA staff document their actual time and the City cover the cost
rather than a flat percentage rate. The City would be doing all the certifications and not
the CRA staff. A direct cost reimbursement may be a better approach with an upset
figure of the 10%.
Susan Harris, CRA Financial Director, was not comfortable with the proposal. The
responsibility for audit purposes would remain with the CRA. She would not accept
anything less than 10% due to the compliance issues involved.
Motion
Mr. Weiland moved to approve 0 under New Business, application to HUD for funding
in the amount for $294,000 to repair the Children's Schoolhouse Museum to approve a
10% administrative cost to file the proper paperwork. Ms. Ross seconded the motion.
The motion passed unanimously.
CLOSE OF COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY MEETING

XII. Future Agenda Items
XIII. Comments by Executive Director
Ms. Bright announced that due to the election, the CRA Board meeting for March would
be held on Monday, March 15,2010.
Ms. Bright also announced there was an editorial in the Sun-Sentinel that reported on
the Boynton Beach CRA working to create affordable housing. In the article, Ms. Bright
affirmed the CRA's dedication to providing affordable housing in Boynton Beach.
Currently the median housing price in Palm Beach County is $238,000 and the median
household income is $46,209 with the price range for affordable housing of $145,674.
There is still a need for affordable housing, the core business of the CRA. The Palm
Beach Post also had a story on the same topic that affordable housing was still not
available. There are no houses in the $150,000 to $200,000 range.
Ms. Bright commended Ms. Brooks for contacting Auburn Development who agreed to
partner with the CRA on a multi-family project on the east side of Seacrest. Ms. Brooks
further explained the Florida Housing Financial Corporation issues tax credits and multi-
family bonds to finance affordable housing. There Is a small application due February
23, 2010 allocating up to $5 million. The target is a four-acre parcel on the east side of
Seacrest. She was also meeting with the Palm Beach County Housing Authority for an
allocation to put the subsidy layers together. There would be 4% tax credits with the
sale of a multi-family bond. The Agency is moving forward and looking for various ways
to get the project done. Less money is becoming available each year and the cap was
being removed from the SHIP funds. Funding opportunities are still being sought. If
13

possible, a purchase agreement would have to be brought before the Board as soon as
possible.
Ms. Bright noted it was Mr. Weiland who gave the olive branch to Mr. Hinners at Auburn
Group and she appreciated his assistance. Collaboration is the key because affordable
housing is a regional issue and not unique just to Boynton Beach. She stressed the
CRA is aggressively seeking solutions for the Heart of Boynton.
Mr. Weiland commented he had contacted Ms. Brooks about attracting a new developer
for the west side of Sea crest. He suggested attempting to get Mr. Hinners and the
Auburn Group back for a much easier project to complete. A process is starting and he
hoped something positive would develop.
Vice Mayor Hay was hopeful, but questioned why Auburn was selected. Ms. Brooks
explained the draft funding application just appeared on Florida Housing Financing
website and the due date is the February 23. There would be no time to do an RFP.
Public notices would have to appear on the land and proposals would be accepted. It
would be the same process when dealing with Habitat for Humanity or the CDC. When
dealing with affordable housing, the legal notice process can be utilized. The purchase
agreement would be for this particular funding source and sunset if not awarded.
Auburn also has the expertise on funding sources for housing. It would be an elderly
rental similar to Boynton Bay with one and two bedroom units.
Vice Chair Hay surmised due to the time factor, Auburn becomes a sole source
provider. Ms. Brooks explained a legal notice would be advertised for the disposal of
the property and proposals could be accepted or rejected by the Board.

Mr. Weiland admitted he had spoken to the CRA staff and David Perry from MSCW
involved in the engineering of the marina project phase one. He examined phase two,
which would be incredible when completed. It will create a destination area in Palm
Beach County and could help to spur the sale of condos in the area. He had requested
that a PowerPoint presentation be presented at the next City Commission meeting
because the Build America bonds would need to be used. Basically 35% of the interest

paid on the bonds would return to the City, but the deal has to close by December 31,
2010. It would be very positive for the community and the downtown area.
He also inquired about the number of general contractors that are utilized by the CRA
and their specialties. Ms. Bright recalled in 2007, after an RFQ was issued, three firms
were selected based on their expertise. Those selected were Hendrich Brothers
specializing in mid to large size projects, Burkhart Construction who built Boynton
Beach Boulevard extension, and Kaufman Lind who has expertise in large municipal
facilities. Also, Kimley-Horn is the engineering professional services contractor. Mr.
Weiland Inquired if it would be possible for the City to piggyback on Kaufman Lind's
contract with the CRA for the police facility. Attorney Cherof advised piggybacking on a
general assignment contract was not allowed. The piggyback had to be on something
more specific, such as a company who has done a police department or publiC works
facility. A recent contract with a government agency for like services would be needed.
Ms. Ross thanked Ms. Bright for sending the Board Members the information on
Practical Strategies for Florida CRAs to address the foreclosure crisis. She asked that
the highlights of the publication be presented to the Board at the next meeting. Ms.
Bright would get an update on the Neighborhood Stabilization Program and bring it
before the Board.
She also read the following sentence from the recent editorial. "We remain committed to
a policy that homes, subsidized with taxpayer funding, should be long lasting and
sustainable and have included improvements such as a 50-year standing seam metal
roofs and impact resistant windows."
Vice Chair Hay commented there were properties within the City owned by the CRA and
the City that are not coming together as a plan. He inquired if the City had contacted
the CRA to develop a strategy. Ms. Bright indicated there had been no contact. Vice
Chair Hay directed staff to take the initiative with the City staff and develop a land swap
strategy and come back to the CRA Board and then the City Commission. A plan would
then be in place for both entities to move forward. Ms. Bright agreed to get something
drafted to start the discussion.
Mr. Weiland admitted it has been frustrating and continuity of the plans was needed for
the City to move forward. It was the reason he wanted to promote phase two of the
marina and the west side of Seacrest to be a positive movement toward working
together rather than talking. Ms. Ross agreed completely. Vice Chair Hay declared
there was consensus. Ms. Bright clarified that the Board was directing staff to
implement phase one transfer of land.

an RFP and evaluating It. Vice Chair Hay could consider moving ahead with the RFP but
requested hearing from the other speakers.

Community Redevelopment Agency wants to pay. R.esldents find out the going rate and hold
out. He agrMd staff should land bank, but did not want to rush things since the Master Plan
was not agf'Md to. He thought the land COUfd support a business Incubator and ad~ed the
resident. wan~ to lee something. The community was lMtIus beceUM nothing MI$ being
constructed. He reiterated there are start-up businesses that could benefit from 8 aueeMsful
Incubator, but advised not to construct a bunch of Habitat homes. He thought some retail should
be constructed.
Mr. Rodriguez left the dais at 7:39 p.m.
Mr. Norfus Indicated staff may have to pay more or walt longer, but staff should give hope and
Inspiration.

corri<Jors have hJgh vacancy r.s and a migration from older ,1'$&$ to newer areas, such as
Congress Avenue, occurs. 0eIray Beach "tltuted this program and experienced II high rate of
success. The program encouraged new or exiating business to occupy pr$vIously vacated
spae&. and they would us.i$t tM business to become and>llshed over the next 12 to 18 months
by paying a portion of the rent to the landlotd for a Hmfted amount of 8me.

FLAMINGO PLAZA
407 S Federal Highway
Boynton Beach, FL 33435.
FACADE RENOVATION PROJECT
February 11, 2010
It is our miSSion and purpose to design and execute an exterior renovation project at
Flamingo Plaza in Boynton Beach, FL that will achieve the following results:
. Enhance the curb appeal of this unique shopping center.
. Update the building, signage and landscaping to reflect current trends in architecture
and design.
. Maintain the esthetic and historical beauty of the Boynton Beach corridor of Federal
Highway.
. Improve business through increased walk-in traffic for the tenants who occupy the
center.
Such improvements will be implemented as per the attached diagram and will be managed
by Keystone Construction per the plans created by Bali Design and submitted and approved
for permit by the City of Boynton Beach.
A detail listing of the project plan is as follows:
1. The existing structural columns supporting the existing flat roof at the covered walkway
shall be framed out and brought forward to create wider decorative columns which
then extend up past the existing covered walkway.
2. Above the flat roof over the covered walkway we are adding pitched roof trusses in
between the new extended walls with metal roofing above.
3. On the left side of the building there is an existing wall which extends above the
existing flat roof on which we will add a pitched roof to give the effect of a tower.
4. On the new tower, lighted signage for 'Flamingo Plaza' will be added
5. On the lower level to the right of the extended wall there is an existing window that will
be framed out 6" inches.
6. At the top of the columns and parapets we will add a foam molding with stucco finish
to increase the depth of the building and minimize the view of the flat roof.
7. The shopping center will then have a new layout of smooth stucco applied to the
designated areas as denoted on the attached diagram and plans.
10f2
8. New channel lettered signs with complimentary colors will be installed for each tenant
on the building, and a new road sign will be installed at the road
9. The tree at the front of the south end of the building will be trimmed to increase the
visibility of the new tower.
10. New flowering plants with colors that compliment the new look of the building will be
added along the road at the front of the parking area and around the road sign.
To facilitate a clear representation of the renovations planned, the following are included as
supporting documentation:
1. Photos of the existing shopping center - front/road view
2. Photos of the existing shopping center - north view
3. A pictorial diagram of the proposed build out of the shopping center - front view
4. A graphic depicting the colors to be used for exterior painting
5. A copy of the diagrams and plans submitted and approved by the City of Boynton
Beach for permit
6. A copy of the letter submitted to the City of Boynton Beach to describe the proposed
new signage.
The renovation project is to be completed in accordance with the permitted plans for an
estimated contract price of $79,840.00. A copy of the selected constructor's bid is attached.
Construction start date was January 26, 2010 with an estimated timeline of 60 days to
complete construction, painting, signage and landscaping, as well as associated inspections.

SUBJECT: Approval of Lease Renewal with Jesus House of Worship, 1000 N. Seacrest
Boulevard
SUMMARY: In March 2007, the CRA negotiated a settlement to purchase the property located at
1000 N. Seacrest Boulevard from the Jesus House of Worship, Inc. At the time of mediation, the
building was utilized as a church. The settlement agreement authorized Jesus House of Worship to
remain in the building as tenant with a one year lease at a rate of $10 annually and with any future lease
renewals at the sole discretion of the CRA Board. At their April 8, 2008, and again at the April 14, 2009
meeting, the CRA Board approved an additional year's lease renewal for Jesus House of Worship at the
existing rate of$10.00.
CRA staff reviewed various redevelopment scenarios and does not recommend terminating the lease or a
rental increase which would increase the property tax liability to the CRA similar to the significant
increase assessed at the old Relax Inn site with Boynton Waterways for their construction trailers. The
lease agreement requires the tenant to be responsible for any and all maintenance/repairs as well as their
continued occupancy of the building provides the community with eyes and ears for neighborhood crime
watch initiatives.
FISCAL IMPACT: None.
CRA PLAN, PROGRAM or PROJECT: Heart of Boynton Redevelopment Plan
RECOMMENDATIONS: Approval of the Lease Renewal with Jesus House of Worship for the
property located at 1000 N. Seacrest Boulevard.

WATER TAXI CAPITAL FACILITIES
GRANT APPLICATION
PROJECT NAME AND LOCATION:
Boynton Beach Community Redevelopment Agency's
Boynton Harbor Marina
735 Casa Loma Boulevard
Boynton Beach, Florida 33435
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
The Boynton Beach CRA purchased a portion of a privately owned and operated
local commercial fishing and diving marina in March 2006, formerly known as the
Two Georges Marina. In order to establish a new name and identity for the
marina, the CRA held a contest to solicit title suggestions from the public and
"The Boynton Harbor Marina" was selected.
The Boynton Harbor Marina has existed under different ownership since the
1940s and was purchased by the CRA in an attempt to preserve the local
commercial fishing and diving businesses while preserving continued public
access to the waterfront. The mixed use area surrounding the CRA's marina
slips consists of two newly constructed fifteen story mixed use residential towers,
two long established waterfront restaurants and various commercial businesses.
The marina is located adjacent to East Ocean Avenue and Boynton Beach
Boulevard which is identified as Boynton Beach's downtown core and Main
Street where future redevelopment is destined to occur.
The City's Downtown Master Plan has identified East Ocean Avenue and the
FEC railroad as an ideal location for the creation of a Transit Oriented
Development (TOO) site which is approximately two blocks away from the
Boynton Harbor Marina. The addition of a water taxi slip provides the opportunity
to expand the CRA's efforts to provide alternative modes of transportation
between neighboring cities and business communities.
The marina slips are currently occupied by 80% commercial vessels and 20%
non-commercial vessels. It is the intention of the CRA to continue with a
predominance of commercially operated vessels in this ratio of higher.
Since the acquisition of the marina, the CRA has been performing ongoing
maintenance and minor repairs while formalizing a Boynton Harbor Marina Area
Master Redevelopment Plan for the entire marina district and surrounding
waterfront, mixed use area. Currently, existing finger piers are weak and
undersized, dock pilings are irregularly spaced and damaged, access to vessels
is limited, difficult and non-ADA accessible under current codes, electrical and
water systems antiquated and the overall appearance and functionality of the
dock structure is less than desirable. The slip renovation project will provide for
new dockage, commercial visibility, and safer vessel access for patrons, dock
lighting and easier vessel navigation within the basin and their slips.
The slip renovation project is the first phase in the CRA's overall Boynton Harbor
Marina Area Master Redevelopment Plan which is will provide new public
restroom facilities, dock master building, pedestrian walkways and public spaces
as well as stimulate new economic and redevelopment opportunities. The
Boynton Harbor Marina Slip Renovation Project will provide the local boating
community with enhanced dockage, commercial visibility and safety. The CRA's
marina slips, as well as the adjacent privately owned slips, have been utilized by
the local boating industry for more than 50 years. The Boynton Harbor Marina
facility is targeted to be one of four "marina villages" within Palm Beach County's
Overall Economic Development Plan for the 21st Century. These "marina
villages" will connect waterfront communities together from Rivera Beach to Boca
Raton.
IDENTIFICATION OF NEED:
Existina and Proiected Water Taxi RidershiD
Within the Boynton Harbor Marina service area, two water taxi operators
currently exist. Delray Yacht Cruises operate sightseeing tours out of Veteran
Park in Delray Beach. Delray Yacht Cruises have expressed interest in
expanding their current business to include a smaller version of a "riverboat style"
water taxi vessel operating between the area of Lantana and Boca Raton. The
second company, Liquid Launch Water Taxi Service, operates on an on-demand
or charter basis focusing between on the area between Boynton Beach and
Deerfield Beach waterfront restaurants.
Throughout the larger county waterfront area, there are four main water taxi
companies currently operating in Palm Beach County, i.e., the Palm Beach
Water Taxi, Water Taxi of the Palm Beaches, Peanut Island Water Taxi, and the
Seafare Water Taxi. While none of these companies currently operate within the
Boynton Beach area, it is anticipated that as future economic growth continues
along with exposure of the newest water taxi sites.
The Palm Beach Water Taxi operates out of the Sailfish Marina located at 98
Lake Drive, Palm Beach Shores and provides a variety of tours as well as service
to Clematis Street in downtown West Palm Beach. It operates five boats with
carrying capacities ranging from 20 to 49 passengers.
The Water Taxi of the Palm Beaches operates out of Panama Hatties on Ellison
Wilson Road in North Palm Beach. It operates four boats on a daily basis; each
boat has a carrying capacity of 27 people.
The Peanut Island Water Taxi operates out of the Riviera Beach Marina at 200
East 13th Street in Riviera Beach. It operates a single taxi with a carrying capacity
of 40 people, which runs between the marina and Peanut Island.
The Seafare Water Taxi operates out of Riviera Beach Marina at 200 East 13th
Street in Riviera Beach and two vessels run between the marina and Peanut
Island. The Sea Farer has a carrying capacity of 45 passengers and the Island
Queen has a carrying capacity of 49 passengers.
Proiect Trio Purooses and Tyoes of Riders
It is anticipated that the typical water taxi rider will be visiting the marina area for
restaurant or business purposes. They would be able to utilize the water taxi
service either before or after dinning and take a cruise to Delray or Lantana for
shopping or sight-seeing. Ideally, riders would be able to board the taxis at
various locations in each waterfront city's downtown destination or one of the
county park facilities along the route. Riders could leave their vehicles within the
Boynton Harbor Marina area parking garage's 126 public parking spaces and
return after a day of water travel between several cities.
Linkaaes to Existina Transoortation Services
The Boynton Beach Community Redevelopment Agency currently funds a
Downtown Trolley service free to riders (ADA accessible) serving a large area of
the city's downtown core, western shopping centers as well as the Tri-Rail stop at
Gateway Boulevard. At present, there is a Trolley stop at the entrance to the
marina making it possible to access the water taxi via the Tri-Rail system thereby
expanding the potential area of ridership.
Linkaaes to Bikeways and Pedestrian Walkways
The marina is located three blocks east of the City of Boynton Beach's
Oceanfront Park as well as two Palm Beach County parks; Ocean Inlet Park and
Ocean Ridge Hammock Beach Park via a pedestrian sidewalk running along
North Ocean Avenue. Two established waterfront restaurants are located
adjacent to the Boynton Harbor Marina which is centered within downtown
Boynton Beach with existing paver brick pedestrian walkways leading to retail
shopping, dinning, the Boynton Beach Public library, Children's School House
Museum, Civic Center, City Hall and police station.
LOCATION DETAILS
Condition of Site
The water taxi landing site is located within the CRA owned Boynton Harbor
Marina in slip #3 under the design of the newly constructed slip configuration.
The existing dock structures are antiquated and vessel slip space underutilized.
The CRA is proposing to build 19 new boat slips via an aluminum fixed frame
dock structure complete with installation of new wood and concrete pilings, Ipe
decking and utility pedestals. The new marina facility will be constructed to meet
current building codes and ADA design requirements.
Jurisdiction
The Boynton Harbor Marina is located within the city limits of Boynton Beach and
subject to the City's land use and zoning codes.
OwnershiD
The Boynton Harbor Marina is owned by the Boynton Beach Community
Redevelopment Agency (CRA), a public agency created pursuant to Chapter
163, Part III, of the Florida Statutes. Management and operation of the marina
facility will be performed by CRA staff or approved marina management vendor.
Current usaae conditions
The Boynton Harbor Marina currently leases slips to nine commercial marine
industry vessels. These businesses have been in existence within the marina for
many years and draw from a nation wide repeat client base. In addition to the
marina, the CRA owns 126 public parking spaces within an adjacent mixed use
building providing ample parking for the marina area uses. Next door to the
marina are two well established waterfront restaurants; the Two Georges and the
Banana Boat. These restaurants operate year-round and both have been in
business over 25 years creating the downtown commercial core area's eastern
anchor destination.
Americans with Disabilities Act Accommodations
The new Boynton Harbor Marina docks, finger piers, walkways and water taxi
landing site have been designed to be ADA compliant. The project design and
construction specifications have been permit approved by the City of Boynton
Beach Building Department.
Environmental Issues
The Boynton Harbor Marina is located within and existing man-made basin.
There are no environmental or wildlife species adversely impacted by the
reconstruction of the existing marine facility consisting of the water taxi landing
site or the 18 dock slips.
WORK PLAN
Time Frame for ComDletion
The CRA submitted designs and obtained permits from the City of Boynton
Beach Building Department, Army Corps of Engineers and the Florida
Department of Environmental Protection prior to the release a "Request for
Proposals (RFP)" to solicit contractors and project cost proposals on June 5,
2009. As a result of the RFP, Shoreline Foundation, Inc. was selected by the
CRA Board of Directors and a contract for construction executed on October 5,
2009. The marina reconstruction project is currently underway and is scheduled
to be completed in April 2010.
Entity doina desian/construction/overseeina work
The CRA contracted with MSCW, Inc. and Sea Diversified, Inc. for the design,
engineering and permitting of the Boynton Harbor Marina Slip Reconstruction
Project. In July 2009, the CRA issued a "Request for Proposal (RFP)" for the
solicitation of construction bid proposals and Shoreline Foundation, Inc. was
selected as the marine contractor for the slip reconstruction project by the CRA
Board at their meeting held on September 8,2009. The CRA, in conjunction with
Waypoint Marine, Inc., will supervise the project with construction oversight and
administrative services provided by MSCW, Inc. and Sea Diversified, Inc.
OPERA liONS/MANAGEMENT
The Boynton Harbor Marina facility daily operations and maintenance are
currently being managed by Waypoint Marine, Inc., and CRA's Development
Director. Since the CRA's acquisition in March 2006, the marina has been in
operation as a commercial marina and will continue as such after the completion
of the reconstruction project.
FINANCIAL PLAN
The Boynton Harbor Marina Slip Reconstruction Project includes the construction
of 18 new boat slips, water taxi landing slip, mooring piles, enhanced pedestrian
and ADA accessibility, new utilities and signage. The design and permitting for
the slip project were performed by Sea Diversified, Inc. and MSCW, Inc. at a cost
of $25,600.00. Additionally, project related construction administrative services
provided by MSCW, Inc., and Sea Diversified, Inc. total $33,520.00. The marina
slip reconstruction project cost as per Shoreline Foundation, Inc.'s approved
contract is $638,519.54, bringing the total project cost for design and
construction to $697,639.54. Based on the total marina slip reconstruction
project cost, the value associated to the water taxi slip is $36,717.87.
Funding for the slip reconstruction project is in place within the CRA's budget
through a Palm beach County 2006 Waterfront Preservation Easement Grant
award in the amount of $2,000,000.00. To date, the CRA has released
approximately $130,657.00 in funding for expenses associated with the slip

Grant Recipient Name: Palm Beach Metropolitan Planning Organization
Project Description:
The proposed ferry system is a private/public joint venture to utilize the Palm Beach
County waterway system to promote tourism, increase mobility and create jobs.
Palm Beach County, Florida has more than 40 miles of the Intracoastal Waterway that is
greatly underutilized as a transportation alternative. All of the major eastern cities,
including Boca Rato~ Boynton Beach, Delray Beach, Lake Worth, West Palm Beach,
Palm Beach, Riviera Beach, Palm Beach Gardens and Jupiter, have a portion of the
Intracoastal Waterway within their municipal boUndaries. This proposal would be the
first phase of a Countywide system to link these cities via an integrated water taxi transit
system. The proposal includes linking attractions along the watelWay near the Downtown
West Palm Beach Central Business District and becoming an integrated connection to the
entire Palm Tran system. The service also parallels a major portion of the recent transit
study of U.S. 1 for Palm Tran which ineludes increased transit service and improved bus
stops with shelters and access improvements.
The system would include construction of docks and access facilities at:
J
U.S. 1 Bridge, Jupiter ~urt Reynolds Park, Jupiter
Bert Winters Park, Juno Beach PGA Blvd Bridge,.Palm Beach Gdns
Phil Foster Park, Riviera Beach Light Harbor Park, Riviera Beach
Flagler Memorial Bridge, Palm Beach Flagler Museum, Palm Beach *
Downtown West Palm Beach .Royal Park Bridge, Palm Beach *
Southern Bou,levard Bridge, West Palm Beach
* Note: Discussions may result in relocation of these sites.
The use of bridge areas and parks reduces the costs of implementation since these lands
are already in public ownership and require little, if any, right-of-way purchases. The
attached map indicates the sites for the proposed docks and facilities.
Within this area, there are an appropriate mix of attractions and destinations to make this
a successful transit alternative. There are currently 10,200 residents and 23,000
employees that would be within walking distance of the proposed stops. These figures are
./
anticipated to grow to 13,000 residents and 35,000 employees. In addition the proposal
would have pedestrian connections to Palm Tran routes 1,2, 31, 40, 41, 42, 43, 46 and
the downtown trolley. Note that the downtown trolley has only been operating for about a
year and has surpassed 70,000 riders a month on several occasions. The downtown
trolley would also connect the waterbus to the Tri-Rail multimodal station providing
access to all of South Florida through Tri Rail, Amtrak and Greyhound.
ELIGffiILITY:
Link on a public road or "the ferry facility is providing passenger service
only"
The proposal is for passenger service only.
The ferry and/or ferry terminal to be constructed or improved is either
publicly owned, publicly operated, or a public authority has majority
ownership interest where it is demonstrated that the ferry operation provides
substantial public benefits.
The boats, docking facilities and signage purchased with the funds from this
proposal will all be publicly owned by Palm Beach County. These facilities
would provide access to the current two private providers of water taxi services
and be available to any additional providers should more services become
available. The result will be an expanded interconnected ferry transit system.
Does not operate in international waters.
The services will operate entirely within Palm Beach County, Florida, USA
SUBMISSION REQUIREMENTS:
1. State - Florida
2. Counties - Palm Beach County, Florida.
3. V.S. Con2ressional District No.(s):
The Districts will be affected are as {ollows:
- FL-16
- FL-22
- FL-23
4. V.S. Con2ressional Members by District:
FL-16 - Congressman Mark Foley
FL-22 - Congressman E. Clay Shaw
FL-23 - Congressman Alcee L. Hastings
, '
U.S. Senators: Bob Graham
Bill Nelson
5. Facility or Project Name - Palm Beach County Water Taxi Facilities
6. Service Termini and Ports - Service will focus on the northeastern Palm Beach
County area to Downtown West Palm Beach Area with potential expansion along the
entire Intracoastal Waterway System the length of Palm Beach County. See Project
Description. This application proposes to meet transportation demands by further
diversifying the County transit system by providing scheduled ferry transit service along
the most densely populated and developed waterways
7. Ownership and Operation. - The proposal is a public/private partnership. All
terminals are publicly owned. The fixed-route service will be privately owned and
operated. There is existing water taxi service in the proposed area and there is a waterbus
operator currently working in Broward County, Florida It is anticipated that these
operators would utilize these facilities to serve the travel demand. Partnerships can also
be developed at docking locations where employers and tourist attractions would
participate in operating costs of the docking facilities.
.8. Current and Future Traffic: It is anticipated the water taxi service would operate
consistent with the Palm Tran system and the Downtown Trolley syste~. Service would
be provided for a minimum of 15 hours per day from 7:00 am to 10:00 pm with Saturday
and Sunday service. Service will be provided year round due to the warm climate.
9. Proposed Work - The project will begin immediately upon notification of Ferry Boat
Grant approval. If this application is successful in October 2002, funds should be
available by January 2003. Negotiations wo~ld be completed with FOOT, Palm Beach
County, and the local municipalities for access and use of the public lands proposed in the
application. Construction would follow on the landing sites and signage programs.
10, 11. Leveraging of private or other public funding - A fixed schedule ferry service
would not be viable without a public/private partnership. The.proposa1leverages private
capital ~here the existing private operators have established a base ridership and support
from the hotel, com,mercial, entertainment and tourist attraction industries. The
partnership will allow for the ability to reshape the existing on-call, tourist oriented
service to include a fixed-schedule, commuter service. A cost estimate for each proposed
location has been prepared using information from marine construction rums and current
operators. Each proposed dock would cost $20,000. A small shelter to be located at the
majority of the stops would include benches and access at a cost of $50,000 each. A
large shelter would incorporate bathroom facilities and an attendant area for a cost of
$150,000. The proposed parking lot at Southern Boulevard would cost $200,000. The
total estimated cost is $1,020,000. A cost summary for each location follows.

Total Project 51,020,000
Operating and maintenance costs will be funded by the private sector through hotel and
business docking fees, and passenger revenues.
12. Previous FBD Funding - Palm Beach County has not previously received any ferry
boat funds.
13. Future Funding Needs - All future funding for Phase I will be met through local
sources. Future funding needs will include annual operating costs which will be provided
by the operators and new docks and access facilities which will be met by local
government or through joint development with Palm Tran.
14. Project Purpose and Benefit - The partnership will greatly benefit the citizens of
Palm Beach County and tourists by providing an efficiently linked water based transit
system to the local fixed route bus system and pedestrian network. Future phases will
include service extensions to the south. Studies of increased transit service needs and
extension of the water taxi services will be conducted within two years.

Summaries
& Contacts
The Ferry Boat Discretionary (FBD) Program, which provides a special funding category
for the construction of ferry boats and ferry tennlnal facilities, was created by Section 1064
of the Intennodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act of 1991 (19911 STEA, Public Law
102-240). Section 1207 of the Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century (TISA-21 ,
Public Law 105-178) reauthorized the FBD funding category through FY 2003. I~ was
continued through the Surface Transportation Extension Acts. Section 1801 of the Safe,
Accountable, FleXible, Efficient Transportatfon Equity Act A Legacy for Users (SAFETEA-
LU) added the program in Section 147 of 23 U.S.C.

Obligation Limitation:
The FBD discretionary funds are subject to obligation limitation; however, 100 percent
obligation authority Is provided with the allocation of funds for the selected projects. The
obligation limitation reduces the available funding for the program under the provisions of
SAFETEA.lU Section 1102(f) discussed above.
Eligibility:
As specified in 23 U.S.C 147(a), this program Is for the construction of ferryboats and ferry
terminal facilities in accordance with 23 U.S.C. 129(c). FBD funds are available for
construction/improvement to ferry boats or ferry boat terminals where;
. It Is not feasible to build a bridge, tunnel, combination thereof, or other normal
highway structure in lieu of the use of such ferry.
. The operation of the ferry shall be on a route classified as a public road within the
State and which has not been designated as a route on the Interstate System.
Projects under this subsection may be eligible for both 'ferryboats carrying cars and
passengers and ferryboats carrying passengers only.
. Such ferry boat or ferry terminal facility shall be publicly owned or operated or
majority publicly owned if the Secretary determines with respect to a majority
publicly owned ferry or ferry terminal faCility that such ferry boat or ferry terminal
facility provides substantial public benefits.
. The Ferry does not operate in international water except for: Hawaii, Alaska, any
territory of the United States, and between a State and Canada.
The ,set-aside discretionary funds for marine highway systems for use by the States of
Alaska-, New Jersey'and Washington-are-avallable for the construction or refurbishing of
ferry boats and ferry terminal facilities and approaches to such facilities within marine
highway systems that are part of the NHS as set forth in 23 U.S.C. 147(d).
Solicitation Procedure:
Each year, a memorandum is sent from the FHWA Headquarters Office of Program
Administration to the FHWA Division Offices, requesting the submission of candidate
projects
for the following fiscal year's funding. This solicitation is also posted on FHWA's website at
httD:/Iwww.fhwa.dot.gov/discretionary (due to Congress designating all of the FY 2006
FBD funding for specific projects, no discretionary funding remains. Accordingly, FHWA is
soliciting applications for only those projects for FY 2006). The Division Offices provide this

SUbjectl Walmart Proposal Federal Highway South Boynton
Dear Mayor, City Manager and City Commissioners,
I attended the City CommIssion meeting on Feb. 16th, 2010. I was struck by Walmart's
Attorney's tone when stating emphatically what Watmart won't agree to. I only wish Boynton
Beach could stand up to them, or chose to stand up to them, in stating what they won't
agree to as a Commission.
Every single citizen that spoke at the Public Hearing stated that they were opposed to a
24 hr. operation and that there was no need for such in our area. I can't emphasize enough
that whether they were for a Walmart Of opposed to the Walmart, they stated that the 24 hr.
stipulation needed to be dropped. Walman's response was that they wanted fair
competition. Fair competition is that there isn't a single estabHshment anywhere near the
2/18/2010
Page 2 0 f 2
location within miles and maybe cities that is open 24 hrs. other than possibly pharmacies.
They're simply wrong.
I wish Boynton Beach would have the backbone to tell them "NolI to this condition as
every single citizen that spoke said "NO.II We're desperately concerned about the crime,
traffic and noise that would go on all night long in our back yards.
Yes, we're happy that the strip joint, bar and trailer park are out of the area. I can't
understand why you are adamant to bring a low end retail chain in their place. You've
ignored the crime statistics, the traffic statistics, the environmental statistics, and the
peoples' concerns. We're told that most of the conditions have been met and that no one
can understand why we're not jumping up and down to get a Walmart in our back yard.
I hope that today you review the record and pay close attention to the speakers on the
public's behalf last night. In my opinion, they were excellent and deserve to be reviewed for
their merit and followed up on where beneficial to the "win, win concept."
I would think the last thing Boynton Beach would be remembered for would be rushing
a midnight approval of a project that ends up being another "I told you SO," when the exact
problems surface that the public warned of at the February 16th,2010 Commission meeting
that lasted past midnight. Please stand up to Walmart now as when they're in their
new location they'll use every single legal means to make Boynton bend to them.
Thank you for your time,
Kim Lindsay

JEFF,
WE KNOW THAT YOU HAVE BEEN TRYING YOUR BEST FOR YEARS AT

PART ADDIE GREEN WAS NEVER CONCERNED AT All ABOUT THE
AREA SOUTH OF BOYNTON BEACH BLVD. WE HAD INVITED HER MANY
TIMES TO MEET WITH US AT THE FOREST PARK ASSOClAnON AND
ALWAYS BACK OUT LITERALLY AN HOUR BEFORE THE MEEnNGS. WE
WERE TOLD FLAT OUT WHEN SHE LEFT THE FUNDS LEFT. THE NEW
COMMISSIONER SAME WAY. IF WE LOOSE THE GRANT THIS TIME,
THEM I GUESS WE AS AN ASSOCIATION WILL HAVE TO MARCH IT UP
TO THE COUNTY COMMISSION HEARING S AND CAll OUT THE TV
STATIONS AND MAKE SURE THAT OUR POINT IS OUT THERE.
I WAS ALSO TOLD FROM THE LAST MEETING THAT YOU ARE DOING
YOUR BEST AS TO THE TRAFFIC CONCERNS IN THE AREA. IT TOO IS

VERY FRUSTRATING FOR US HERE IN THE AREA, ESPECIALLY AFTER

THAT I AND OTHERS HAVE DONE IS CALL THE SCHOOL BOARD
CONCERNING THE RATE OF SPEED THAT THE SCHOOL BUSSES HAUL
IT UP ON 8TH AND 9TH AVENUE'S. THAT TOO HAS FALLEN ON VERY
DEAF EARS FROM THE SCHOOL BOARD. WE PLAN ON TAPPING INTO
THE PRESS IF THAT IS NOT STRAIGHTENED OUT SOON. IT HAS BEEN
THIS WAY FOR YEARS AND THEY PAY ZERO ATTENTION TO THE SPEED
SIGNS. WE HAVE ALSO BROUGHT UP WITH THE POLICE AND THEY

SUbjeCt: RE: seACR!ST BlVD
Mr. Murray,
You are correct In a number of your observations. There have been failed attempts in the past but we are
moving forward,
First, Seacrest is a County maintained highway. As such, the County is responsible for all infrastructure on this
street. This would include pavement, curbing, sidewalks, etc. The City, however, can choose to upgrade things
like landscaping with County permission. Any upgrades would require a funding source.
Last year, Commissioner Rodriguez had identified a County funding source from a County Commissioner to
place palm trees along Seacrest, south of Ocean. We were pleased and ready to move forward with planting.
The County was going to purchase the trees and the City would then plant and maintain them. Frustratingly,
that funding source ultimately did not materialize. As a result, City staff researched other grant alternatives
because we did not have funds budgeted for this purpose. We found a 50% match program and this past
Tuesday, the City Commission authorized staff to apply for a grant to plant 91 palms on Seacrest from Ocean to
Woolbright. We will know In the next four to five months whether or not we will receive this grant. We are all
hoping to get the grant because we too want to enhance the area.
If you need additional Information, I would be pleased to help.

Dear Mr. Murray.
The Forest Park Community is adjacent to Sea crest Boulevard, but only four block are encompassed within the
CRA District. The four blocks would be incorporated into a larger Capital Improvement Roadway Project with
the County or the City not driven by the eRA
I have copied Jeff Livergood, Director of Public Works. on this email so he would be able to advise you of any
planning activities in the City's Capital Improvement Budget for southern portion of Seacrest Boulevard south of
Ocean. There was a public discussion in October 2008 about this portion and I do not have any current
information.
Additionally, County Commissioner Steve Abrams has been very responsive to many of our needs here in
Boynton Beach. So I suggest you contact Gall at 355-2204 to set a meeting with him in his Delray Office to
personally your concerns.
In the meantime, if you need any additional information contact me so I can track it down for you

Subject: Walmart East and eRA funds
Dear Lisa,
I have major concerns after leerrnng that you (and the CRA board) are giving CRA funds coltected from local
bUSineSSes to Walmart to help fund the
Eastside Walmart store. As a local (downtown) business owner, I find that it is sad and ironic that you are taking
from the poor to give to the rich!
I made a recommendation to the CRA Board's approved Federal Highway Corridor Plan (commercial)
Downtown Master Plan (Brownfield Designation) and Economic Development (see attached)
I am not sure what you mean about eRA funds collected from local businesses, but my guess is your fees YO\I
pay to the City and/or property taxes for your particular site. Since your site is nol redeveloped but an original
site, the CRA receives no revenue from your property unless it is redeveloped Any business tax fees. permH
fees, etc. are a direct revenue to the City not CRA
Walmart recently reported 4Q earnIngs up 22%, while most other rstalfers were flat or down. So not only are
you taxing me to support Walmert
(owned by some of the richest people In the country), but you are also proudly bringing in a company which will
be a direct oompetttor to me and
many other local downtown businesses. This is not progress towards a revitalized downtown, instead it is just
another nail In the coffin.
Again the CRA is not taxing any tocal business for Walmart to come into an existing commercial shopping
Center. Lowe's and Home Depot are equidistant to your store and city funds were not collected from local
businesses to give to these commercial retailers whiCh would have directly affected your business
If you really befieve that we need another Walmart, please allow them to experience the true cost of expansion,
including paying their own way
without aft of the proposed CRA incentives, waivers, and special treatment. Why not utilize those funds to support
the other smaler businesses which
Walmart wilfbe competing agelnst. The end result would be a stronger downtown small business base and, I am
sure, we will sUlI get the e8stside Wahnart because they do not really need the money to fund their expansion.
Per Flo:t-ida State Statute 288.107 the Brownfield Oeeignati0l1 provides lncentivp~, ,t,
create jobs. The proposed Walmart ston' at Gulfstl'eam and S. Federal Highway ; r"
expected to create 225 new lobEl of which \t;C ',Jill hp F'1'E Thp Ci.t.y '"ill match SC;!l1
2/19/2010
Page 2 of2
for each FTE job to the Office of Tourism, Trade and Economic Development job
incentive tax credit of $2,500 per full-time job. The estimated match will be
approximately $75,000 or $15,000 per year from the CRA Budget over a five-year
period. Our unemployment rate is 11.8% which is 2.1% higher than the national
average of 9.7\
AS a final note, we have newly small business programs that provide the following
financial support:
1.) Rent Subsidy for new or expanding businesses
2.) Tenant Improvement for interior renovations
3.) Signage Program
We also have the Commercial Fa9ade Grant which covers exterior improvements such as
landscaping, paving, building architectural changes.
I will place your email on the CRA complaint Log and the next CRA Board meeting is
March 15, 2010 at 6:30 p.m. in City Hall.

PALM BEACH POST ARTICLE
Boynton Beach eRA putting short videos of downtown
businesses online
By LONA O'CONNOR, Palm Besch Post Staff Writer
Saturday, July 04, 2009
BOYNTON BEACH - Nowhere on Lisa Bright's job description does It say "cue card
girl." But someone called In sick, so Bright. director of the city's community
redevelopment agency, jumped In on short notice for the job, which amounted to
holding up a manila file folder on which someone had hand-lettered, "My name IsM and a
few other cues.
This low-bupget Indle film will probably
not show up at Sundance. Itis more of a
viral video, or at least that's what Bright
and CRA marketing director Margee
Walsh are hoping.
The idea Is to make short, Inviting
videos of downtown businesses and put
them up on an Internet site that will lure
customers downtown.
If beautification and renovation Is the
hardware of downtown redevelopment,
then projects like this video marketing
campaign are the software. Call It CRA
2.0.

Hurricane Alley restaurant, help wIth her IIn.. via cue
cards while filming an online video.
In fact. the building at 531 E. Ocean
Ave. that houses the Hurricane Alley restaurant has already received physical
Improvements, thanks to grants from the CRA, Including awnings and a wider sidewalk
allowing for outside tables In pleasant weather.
Situated within sight of the Intracoastal Waterway bridge, Hurricane Alley Is In an area
at the east end of the city that boosters hope will be a mini-version of Delray Beach's
Atlantic Avenue. At this point, however, the key for any business is to stay economically
healthy until the economy revives. And a low-cost marketing Idea Is just the ticket.
Hurricane Alley is busy selVlng fish dishes to its regular lunchtime crowd. But owner
Kim Kelly, the video's star and narrator, hopes the video of her restaurant will add new
customers.

"Hey, get the cue cards right this time," Kelly teases Bright.
The video Is free to the 500 or so businesses In the eRA dlstrfcti which Includes the
east side of the city, from George Bush Boulevard north to Gateway Boulevard.
Once edited, each video wlfl be linked, along with photos and other Information, to a
special Web site called the "eRA Business District Goog1& Map." Bright plans to present
the project to the CRA board at Its July 14 meeting and roil out the first nine videos on
the site In August.
The cost to the eRA was about $1 ,COO, IncludIng a vldeocam, editing software and
training for CRA marketing and events assistant April Majoy, the vldeoQrapher.
Once business owners started noticing the video crew working downtown, they began
calling Bright for appoitltments.
Kim Kelly, restaurateur, star and narrator, studies her lines nervously. On Majoy's
command, "Take One," she Introduces herself and the restaurant. She makes a similar
video for Eye of the Storm, her ice cream parlor next door to the restaurant.
She stammers, stops, giggles, restarts, then nails her short speech.
"Kim, you're doing great, really," said Bright. "You're a naturaL"

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
February 4, 2010
Seacrest Revitalization Kicks Off Heart of Boynton
Redevelopment
Construction for roadway improvements to major Boynton corridor starts April 2010
Boynton Beach, FL - Seacrest Boulevard, from Ocean Avenue to the C-16 Canal in
Boynton Beach, is about to get a new look.
Construction will begin this April on the Sea crest Boulevard Streetscape Improvement
project, a major component of the Heart of Boynton Redevelopment Plan, according to
Lisa Bright CRA executive director.
City of Boynton engineer Andrew P. Mack, P.E., LEED AP, said that federal stimulus
dollars are supporting the more than $1.9 million Seacrest Boulevard Streetscape
Improvement project. The year-long beautification project is one of seven major roadway
projects being funded through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 in
Palm Beach County.
The project will include:
. installation of raised medians with landscaping, irrigation, and stamped concrete
. milling and resurfacing of the existing roadway
. signing and pavement markings
. decorative street lighting
. a reclaimed water line
. public art
. and the installation of a pedestrian plaza at the intersection of Sea crest Boulevard
and MLK Boulevard
"This project will enhance one of the City's major north - south corridors within the
northern portion of the CRA District known as the Heart of Boynton. It will increase safety
in the community, with the creation of raised medians including landscaping and the
closure of side streets at the intersection of NW 5th and NW 9th Court and Sea crest
Boulevard," he said. "A unique aspect of the project is that the City's engineering staff will
be performing the construction, engineering, and inspection duties, which are typically
outsourced to private consulting firms. By keeping these responsibilities in-house, the
City will be able to maximize the use of funds available for the project."
Cont'd
Page two, Sea crest Blvd. cont'd
The federal stimulus dollars also allow for public art elements. Debbie Coles-Dobay, the
City's Public Arts Administrator, will conduct public meetings with residents to select an
artist to create and design a public art components at all four corners of Seacrest
Boulevard and Martin Luther King intersection.
"The Sea crest Boulevard Streets cape Improvement will a provide a much needed boost
to Palm Beach County's construction industry and a great opportunity to employ local
residents," Bright said. "Seacrest Boulevard's revitalization is the beginning of something
very exciting for the community. The CRA is underway with the design phase for the
second part of this project: the MLK streetscape."
The Boynton Beach eRA is committed to serving the community by guiding
redevelopment activities and stimulating economic growth within its 1,650 acre district.
The agency focuses on creating a vibrant downtown core, providing affordable housing,
and revitalizing neighborhoods.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
February 12, 2010
Boynton's CRA Board Gives Thumbs Up for Funding
Agreement between CRA, Wal-Mart
New Wal-Mart planned for Federal Hwy. to create 150 full-time jobs
Boynton Beach, FL -Boynton Beach Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) came
one step closer to securing what could be the biggest boost in years to the CRA district's
economy. Last Tuesday, the CRA Board of Commissioners gave the approval to enter
into a direct incentive funding agreement (DIFA) with Wal-Mart Stores East LP for
$406,026.00.
"The CRA staff has worked for nearly three years on this deal with the developer 3600
Holdings and, ultimately Wal-Mart, to build an urban design, full-service Wal-Mart store,"
stated Lisa Bright, CRA executive director. "Our board's decision last week, is a pivotal
component of CRA's Federal Highway Corridor Community Redevelopment Plan."
The Wal-Mart store, planned for 3629-3675 S. Federal Highway, will be about half the
size of retailer's traditional Supercenters, at 93,755 square feet. The Eastern Store is
less than ~ the size of the Wal-Mart located at 3200 Old Boynton Rd. It will feature not
only a custom contemporary, urban building fayade, but also the retailer's emphasis on
"green" design. Energy-efficient technology and environmentally friendly features will
reduce energy use, water consumption and minimize waste.
The DIFA will provide funding for the creation of 150 full-time jobs, a much needed boost
in a community suffering from double-digit unemployment, according to Bright. The CRA
Board's approval in 2008 of the Economic Development Plan was part of the effort to
recruit businesses which would provide additional employment opportunities to the CRA
District. The local population within the CRA District shows 88.9% of the residents with a
high school diploma or equivalent, and 23.1 % have a bachelor's degree or higher.
The store will also help to stimulate the local economy by offering competitively priced
goods (including groceries) and services to area residents, as well as contribute annually
to local charities and schools. The retailer donates more than $18 million annually in
Florida, alone.
"Working with the CRA staff over these last few years, through every step of the
process-from the removal of the strip club, to the rezoning of the land and, ultimately, to
the collaboration with Wal-Mart-made this public-private partnership a success," Jim
Knight, a broker with 3600 Holdings.
-cont'd-
"This particular site, which borders on the southern gateway to the CRA District and City
of Boynton Beach, has been home to a strip club and an eye-sore and for so many years.
This project will breathe new life into what is the most used Palm Tran route and a
heavily traveled thoroughfare in our city," Bright said.
The project will result in long-term revenue to support CRA economic development
programs, generating $20,301 of new revenue each year to the CRA in the first five years
and $60,904 each year, in years five through 10. For perpetuity, the CRA will receive
approximately $81,206, which represents the annual tax increment created from
redevelopment of the site.
The Boynton Beach City Commission will vote to approve the Wal-Mart site plan at the
next meeting, Tuesday, Feb. 16.
The Boynton Beach eRA is committed to serving the community by guiding
redevelopment activities and stimulating economic growth within its 1,650 acre district.

Residents near proposed Boynton Beach Walmart fear more
. .
nOIse, cars, crIme
By LONA O'CONNOR
Palm Beach Post Staff Writer
Updated: 12:06 a.m. Wednesday, Feb. 17,2010
Posted: 9:44 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 13,2010
BOYNTON BEACH - With little fanfare, a 93,000-square-foot Walmart has been quietly making its way through
the city's permitting system. And it's the quietness of the process that bothers the store's neighbors.
The 24-hour Walmart is to be built on 9 acres at the northwest corner of Federal Highway and Gulfstream
Boulevard. Walmart representatives filed their application to build on Nov. 4, and city commissioners will hear the
Walmart proposal on Tuesday.
Across Federal Highway from the proposed store, Gulf Stream residents are worrying about an uptick in traffic,
crime and noise. And residents of unincorporated Palm Beach County just west of the Walmart property have
questions about the safety and quality of life of residents near the back of the property.
There has already been one fatal accident in that area, said resident Linda Stabile, whose husband was injured by
a car on Old Dixie. There are children, pets and pedestrians in the area behind the Walmart, she said. Stabile said
she and other neighbors were not notified of the planning and development board meeting because they do not
live close enough to the project to be affected by it.
Stabile contends that she and others are affected, even if they live outside the arbitrary notification area.
Gulf Stream residents raised the specter of a national study on Walmart-related crime. The study, produced for
Wake Up Walmart, a group that opposes new Walmart stores, suggests that Walmarts have more crime than
similar stores and need more security.
Boynton Beach records of police calls from the nearly 220,000-square-foot, 24-hour Walmart at 3200 Old Boynton
Road show 597 calls for service during 2004, the same periOd studied by the national Walmart report. Most of the
incidents were for vandalism and shoplifting, but there was also an attempted ca~acking.
County officials are completing a traffic analysis of the area, estimating that new Walmart-related traffic would be
about 157 cars during the morning peak hours and 432 cars during the afternoon peak hours.
Stabile said a county official told her that noise and quality-of-life issues are not part of the county's analysis, which
limits itself to traffic issues.
Boynton Beach Planning and Development Board Chairman Shirley Jaskiewicz was upbeat about the planned
Walmart.
She said she was confident that the store would be designed well, and certainly would be an improvement over the
topless bar it is replacing.
"The city has gone to serious lengths to rid itself of nuisances like the topless bar, with the prostitution complaints
and so on," Jaskiewicz said. "I felt terribly sorry for the people in that area, and I would expect them to welcome
(Walmart)."
City planners are in discussions with Walmart officials about the outward appearance of the new store, said to be a
new "urban" design for Walmart.
As for the highly publicized killing effect of Walmart stores on mom-and-pop businesses, community
redevelopment agency Assistant Director Vivian Brooks pointed out that if the Walmart threatened any businesses,
it might be the nearby Winn-Dixie or Publix grocery stores.

URBAN LAND INSTITUTE SELECTS BOYNTON BEACH CRA
AS SUSTAINABLE COMMUNITY PILOT PROJECT AREA
Boynton Beach, FL. - The grass, and now possibly the city of Boynton Beach, may be a
little greener, since the Boynton Beach Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) was
chosen among other municipalities by the Urban Land Institute (ULI) Southeastern
Florida/Caribbean region to serve as the ULI's Sustainable Community Pilot Study Area.
This is in line with the CRA's emphasis, since 2008-with the creation of a Green
Taskforce-to oversee the process of improving and sustaining the environmental needs
of Boynton Beach, according to Boynton Beach CRA director Lisa Bright.
"It's a wonderful thing to be recognized for the City's commitment within the CRA District
to work with Urban Land Institute to develop a sustainable green program at the
predevelopment stage," Bright said. "We believe this is going to produce a
'GreenCentive' program that could be a model for other cities."
ULI's mission is to provide leadership in the responsible use of land and in creating and
sustaining thriving communities worldwide, according to James R. Williams, AlA, LEED-
AP, president of JMWA Architects and member of the ULI Sustainability Committee.
"The purpose of the Sustainability Pilot Project is to utilize a 'real world' study zone as a
basis for advising and implementing best practices in sustainability that will serve as a
model for other Southeast Florida communities," Williams said. "The Boynton Beach CRA
was selected by the ULI Sustainability Committee because of their commitment to and
understanding of sustainability I their having the political will to make something positive
happen and because of their engagement of all of the stakeholders in the process."
CRA projects slated for 2010 and into 2011, including plans for the new WalMart on
Federal Hwy., will become best practices of sustainability, incorporating the CRA's
GreenCentive draft program. The GreenCentive program is an incentive program
featuring a palette of proven green development strategies that add value to projects,
minimize impact on city infrastructures and conserve energy and water.
John Szerdi, AlA, LEED-AP, founder Living Designs Group, Lake Worth and chairman of
the U.S. Green Building Council, Treasure Coast/Palm Beach branch, said the ULI
designation will benefit the Boynton Beach community-not just the owners of the
impacted properties.
-cont'd-
"In the green movement, it is more than hanging a plaque and claiming to be
environmentally aware; it is an entire movement-a way of building and a way of Iife-
that affects environmentally-sensitive behavior and awareness," Szerdi said.
The Boynton Beach CRA is committed to serving the community by guiding
redevelopment activities and stimulating economic growth within its 1,650 acre district.
The agency focuses on creating a vibrant downtown core, providing affordable housing,
and revitalizing neighborhoods.

FREE PROGRAM AIMS TO TEACH BOYNTON'S YOUTH
ABOUT "ENVIRONMENTAllY-AWARE" ANGLING
Boynton Beach eRA approves funding to offer an educational fishing program to local 8
to 12-year-olds
Boynton Beach, FL. - What happens to a child from ages 8 to 12 often helps to shape
that child's future. A new program, free to at-risk youth in Boynton Beach promises to not
only arm local children with a life-long skill, but also environmental appreciation and
awareness.
The Boynton Beach Community Redevelopment Association (CRA) board has approved
$11,856 to fund an educational opportunity for Boynton Beach children ages 8 to 12,
offered by Florida Fishing Academy's Captain Richard "Rich" Brochu. Starting Feb. 27,
2010, and held every Saturday (except holiday weekends) from about 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.,
Captain Rich will teach local children the basics of fishing, fishing rules and regulations,
fishing biology and how to handle fish. The program also includes several fishing trips, to
help put their new-found knowledge to practice. The program is funded through
September 2010.
"Our message is 'environmental.' We want to raise a group of ethical anglers, and,
hopefully, future biologists and conservationists," Captain Rich said. "Studies have shown
that targeting kids at these ages with positive opportunities can have a profound impact
on their lives."
Captain Rich is no stranger to helping at-risk youth. He has received funding from the
CRA in the past for the city's Youth Violence Program, for children ages 12 to 19.
"This new program builds on the years of success we've witnessed with a similar
program teaching the city's older at-risk youth about the fishing trade," said CRA
Executive Director Lisa Bright. "This meets with the mission of the CRA, directly
impacting youth living within the CRA District, and we're excited that Captain Rich will be
able to teach our pre-teens a skill that they will enjoy and, possibly, turn into a profession
later in their lives."
For more information on the fishing academy, contact Richard Brochu at 561-740-7227 or

Choosing a Legal Structure
Your legal structure will determine what kind of
taxes you'll pay and who's liable financially.
f) .sole Proprietorship
Sole proprietorships are easy to set up
and easy to disband. Profits are taxed at
the owner's individual federal tax rate,
with the amount reported on Schedule
C or Schedule CZ. Sole proprietorship
owners have unlimited personal liability
for any debts the business incurs. In
Florida, that liability is limited by the
state's homestead laws.
Corporations and pay $35 to designate a
registered agent and $965 in filing fees for
new partnerships; $500 annually.
f) Limited Liability Company
Limited liability companies, or LLCs
as they are lmown, are a hybrid form of
business that combines elements of part-
nerships and corporations. In Florida,
LLCs may elect whether to be taxed as
partnerships or corporations. On the fed-
erallevel, LLCs with only one member are
considered to be sole proprietors unless
they elect to be classified as a cOIl1ora-
tion. LLCs with more than one member
file a federal partnership return unless
they elect to be classified as a corporation.
LLCs must file with the Florida Depart-
ment of State, Division of Corporations
($125 for new LLCs; $138.75 annually).
f) Partnership
Partnerships can be formed as
easily as sole proprietorships. These
unincorporated businesses allow two or
more people to share liability and provide
capital. Business income is reported
on partners' individual tax returns.
Limited partnerships must file with the
Florida Department of Stare, Division of

Vice Chair Rodriguez requested in the future that the City be engaged in the items so
they would get information from both sides,
B. Consideration of Adopting Economic Development Plan for
eRA/City
Chair Taylor explained this was an item recommended by the American Assembly. If
they were to approve it, the item would be adopted but they would not move forward
with hiring anyone to implement the plan. It would be a discussion item with the CRA.
the City and the Chamber of Commerce.
Ms. Ross thought the plan was an excellent idea. She pointed out Ms. Brightl as the
Executive Director of the CRA, was appointed to the Board of Palm Beach County
Overall Economic Program Committee and was appointed by the Palm Beach County
Commission. The appointment occurred in May.
Ms. Bright explained the plan was beneficial to the eRA, specifically for all the Marina
Villages as well as it being another tier of the Business Development Board. She
explained Scott Kline did an excellent job working through the Chamber and working
with Mark Karageorge and his committee from the Boynton Assembly. Staff also
worked with City staff,
Vice Chair Rodriguez inquired about Item 2 regarding the liquor license
Scott Kline was present and explained when he was putting together the plan, he was
not aware of the time to utilize the liquor license by June of next year. That was the only
change.
Vice Chair Rodriguez wanted more time to review the document and he offered a
motion to table the item.
Ms. Bright explained they met with the Assistant City Manager and Hanna Matras,
Economic Development Planner. about who would do this. They wanted to issue
quarterly reports. This was a temporary measure until the budget, when a decision
could be made who would fund a full time position.
Mr. Kline explained there were ways to measure progress which were being developed,

Meeting Minutes
Community Redevelopment Agency Board
Boynton Beach, Florida
October 14, 2008
Ms. Brooks explained they met with City staff about funds for these projects. Both
projects have requested funds from the CRA and the City. The City has a number of
funding sources for housing such as the Community Development Block Grant program,
the State Housing Initiative Partnership program. and more recently the Neighborhood
Stabilization Funds. They met with City staff and there were issues raised by City staff
regarding whether they could use the funds to acquire properties that were not
foreclosed. The Housing and Urban Development Program Division confirmed the funds
did not have to be used for down payment assistance and land acquisition. They were
forwarding the requests to make a recommendation to the City Commission to allocate
a certain portion of the funds to the projects.
Ms. Bright explained the City Manager has a working group for this and a plan needed
to be created.
Mr. Bressner explained the goal was to have a plan available at the second meeting in
November. The Housing and Urban Development Division required that in order to
obtain the funds, Boynton Beach, as an entitlement community, must have its
Community Development Block Grant program modified and reviewed. The public
notification and other requirements to amend the Community Development Block Grant
program were in place. It was also indicated that any entitlement community that
received funding must submit its preliminary application to the Housing and Urban
Development Division by December 1, 2008. Technically, they have until February 9,
2009 to finalize it. A public information hearing was set for October 27, 2008, and they
needed public input about how they would like to see the funds used. The team felt the
funds should be used not only in the MLK area, but in other areas that are dealing with
foreclosure issues. Staff was determining where in the community the clusters exist
and what opportunities were available to them. The foreclosed properties would be
rehabilitated and resold to income-qualified individuals as a home ownership
opportunity. It could also provide a revenue stream to the City. More information would
be known later in the week about foreclosures.
There was consensus this item would be brought back.
D. Consideration of Approval to Offer a Marine Fuel Discount Rate to
Commercial Tenants, Neighboring Vessels Occupying Slips and
Police Marine Units
Mike Simon explained the CRA had purchased the marina and it was brought to their
attention by the Fire Marshall that fueling vessels from a mobile truck was not allowed.
They added that language to the lease the Board approved in September. which
eliminated the ability of the tenants to purchase gas from a truck. The lease and
developing some type of discounted fuel rate was discussed. The City Police
Department wanted a discounted rate for some time now. It was at the Board's
discretion to determine how to proceed. Three options were given and a determination
was needed regarding to whom to extend the discounts. The Boynton Harbor Marina

MEMORANDUM
To:
Vivian Brooks, Assistant Director
Community Redevelopment Agency
From:
Quintus Greene, Development Director
Date:
October 31, 2008
Re:
Request for allocation from NSP Funds for Ocean Breese West
Pursuant to your memorandum of October 24, 2008 it has been determined that
downpayment assistance is an allowable use of funds under the Neighborhood
stabilization Program (NSP). Accordingly, staff will be recommending, per your
request, that $400,000 of the anticipated $2.9 million the City of Boynton Beach
expects to receive should be allocated for this purpose.
Please be advised that the low and moderate income related provisions of the
Housing and Economic Recovery Act (HERA) is applicable to the Neighborhood
Stabilization Program. These provisions state that: "not less than 25 percent of
the funds appropriated or otherwise made available under this section shall be
used for the purchase and redevelopment of abandoned or foreclosed homes or
residential properties that will be used to house individuals or families whose
incomes do not exceed 50 percent of area median income."
As a sub-recipient, the CRA will be expected to ensure that a minimum of 25
percent of the funds requested will be used to meet this required threshold. The
CRA will also need to present a narrative describing how the use of NSP funds
for this use will meet the requirements of Section 2301 (c)(2) of the HERA.
As you know, the administration of the NSP funds will follow the guidelines and
reporting requirements established for the Community Development Block Grant
(CDBG) program. Therefore, the following additional information will also be
required by the eRA to ensure that it is reimbursed:
1. A statement of how the eRA will ensure continued affordability of
units?
2. The number of units proposed for each income level:
(i.e., 50% and below, 51% to 80%, and 81% to 120% of area
median income)
Page 2
"
3. The expected start date of the activity
4. Description of the general terms under which the assistance will be
provided:
. Range of interest Rate
. Duration of term of assistance
. Tenure
Please contact Octavia Sherrod should you have any questions or require any
additional information.

refurbished and then made available to an income eligible family to purchase the home. The
proceeds would be available for other activities.
Attorney Cherof advised that each purchase and each sale should be ratified by the City
Commission.
Vice Mayor Rodriguez suggested all of the monies should be spent for foreclosures, the primary
purpose for the money. The Community Redevelopment Agency has Its own budget and
homebuyer program. The funds should not be scattered, but totally used to assist more
foreclosures throughout the entire City.
Commission Weiland agreed and Indicated he understood that American Realty had already
received significant assistance from the Community Redevelopment Agency. Commissioner
Ross inquired If a majority of home foreclosures would receive assistance. Mr. Bressner
indicated a maximum of 18 homes would be helped. Commissioner Ross noted her district has
65 homes In foreclosure.
Commissioner Hay cautioned the Neighborhood Stabilization Program funds are spread around
and the City has to qualify to receive the funds or the money goes back to the State. Mr.
Bressner contended all four areas recommended are eligIble and fall within the four corners of
the legislature policy decision.
Mayor Taylor indicated the $400,000 for the Ocean Breeze project would help a blighted area.
If the funds were not provided, the project would not move forward. Commissioner Weiland
reiterated the developer had received assistance from the City and was suppose to look to the
County and State for further funding. Mr. Bressner understood discussions the eRA staff had
with the County was a 50/50 match was needed to leverage $1 million and the City or
Community Redevelopment Agency would need to contribute approximately $500,000 more.

Vice Mayor Rodriguez pointed out the proposed options utilized more of the monies in District 2
while the highest number of foreclosures are In District 4. The only option he would support
would be focusing on foreclosures. Commissioner Ross asked for clarification on how the funds
would be distributed. Mayor Taylor indicated the eligible homes would already be foreclosed
and in the hands of the banks. Preventive measures were not addressed by the legislature.
Mayor Taylor cautioned if the monies were not allocated to the Ocean Breeze project, the entire
development would be jeopardized. Vice Mayor Rodriguez pointed out the funding is to assist
home purchases and had nothing to do with projects. Commissioner Weiland noted the
Ordinance Indicated the program was to assist in redevelopment of abandoned and foreclosed
properties and provide benefits to individuals and families whose incomes do not exceed 120%
of the median income. At least 25% had to be used to purchase foreclosed properties.
Vice Mayor Rodriguez advised he would rather put a family in a home that is refurbished then
to start a new project and leave those homes behind. Commissioner Hay contended it was a

Mr. Bressner advised the City would be eligible for an allocation of $2.9 million from the Federal
Housing and Urban Development Department (HUD) for a program called the Neighborhood
Stabilization Program as an adjunct to the Community Development Block Grant program. The
funding was available because Boynton Beach is an entitlement community. The formula for
distribution of funds was based on the foreclosure rate. Four areas for the funding would be
suggested and if approved, the grant applications would be submitted, HUD would review the
material and a final decision would be made In February, 2009. The funds would be returned to
the State if the City did not want to proceed with the program. The four areas for funding are
as follows:
· ~~:=~~~a~~
. Scattered site acquisition for deteriorated structures in the Heart of Boynton area
for an amount of $400/000
. Foreclosed purchase and rehabilitation City wide of $1.8 million. There were 153
known foreclosed properties within the City limits as of last week
. 10% allocated for administrative costs; the first and second options would not be
as labor intensive as the third option
Mayor Taylor questioned if the Commission would have final approval of where the money
would be spent. Commissioner Weiland questioned if a property was bought and rehabilitated
what would the City/s role be in selling the house.
Mr. Bressner explained there would be a revenue stream that would come back to the fund for
additional purchases. The homes would not be given away; rather bought from a bank,

real opportunity to move the Ocean Breeze project ahead and cause things to happen In the
community. It still made no sense to Vice Mayor Rodriguez to start a new project and leave
foreclosed homes abandoned throughout the City. The remaining funds would only assist
approximately 20 homes.
Mayor Taylor felt It was an opportunity to finally see some progress and get the Ocean Breeze
project underway. Commissioner Ross asked the status of all the foreclosed homes In her
District If assistance was not provided. Vice Mayor Rodriguez indicated the homes would just sit
empty. Mayor Taylor stressed all the remaining funds would go to foreclosed homes.
Commissioner Ross suggested if all remaIning funds were used for foreclosed homes It would
be a good compromise.
Mr. Bressner again explained the basis for staff's recommendations of the four options and
reiterated the suggestion that another $400,000 be used to purchase homes In the Cherry Hill
area. The remaining dollars could be spread throughout the other districts: however, Mr.
Bressner took Issue with discussing allocations by districts. Vice Mayor Rodriguez asserted his
concern was the entire City Is suffering and should be recognized and not just the Heart of
Boynton Beach.
Commissioner Weiland noted in light of past efforts to get Ocean Breeze off the ground, If
$400,000 was awarded, the developer would not seek further funding from the County or the
State. Mayor Taylor Indicated the $400,000 would go towards a match for County funding.
Vice Mayor Rodriguez alleged the discussion should have been brought before the Community
Redevelopment Agency Board first to inform the Board of the status of the Ocean Breeze
project.
Mayor Taylor summarized If $400,000 went to the Ocean Breeze project and $300,000 for
administrative costs, $1.2 m/lllon would remain for foreclosures. Vice Mayor Rodriguez offered
the suggestion that the $400,000 be allocated and then no other funds be used within District
2. Commissioner Hay strongly opposed separating the City and funding by districts. Mayor
Taylor added each new acquisition would have to be approved individually by the Commission.
Keturah Joseph, Boynton Beach CDC Executive Director, asserted the County would require a
SO/50 match If any funds were awarded by the County. She also felt the matching funds would
be leverage for the State to award funding. She suggested the monies be expended only If the
developer seeks further funding from the County and State. If the developer fails to seek
additional funding, the monies could revert back to foreclosed homes.
There was consensus that $400,000 would be given to the Ocean Breeze project and the
remaining funds would be dedicated to foreclosures Clty~wide. If additional funding sources
were not sought by the developer, or the matching funding not received, the $400,000 would
revert back to the foreclosed home program.
Commissioner Weiland asserted if the properties in Cherry Hili were residences, he did not feel
relocation expenses should be claimed. Mr. Bressner agreed that any occupied properties
should be avoided.

Mark Karageorge, 240A Main Boulevard, commented the Ocean Breeze project would house
32 single families arid would address blight In the area. The contribution would also help with
County and State funding and ultimately assist 40 to 50 families. The combined efforts would
greatly enhance the area and the City in eliminating blight.
Brian Miller, Chair of the Community Relations Board, strongly supported the idea that the
Seacrest area was a blighted area. He urged the Commission to use the funds to eliminate
blight by working as a team.
Mayor Taylor agreed with Vice Mayor Rodriguez that the City as a whole needs to be addressed
and the entire City needed to be included to balance the allocation of funds. The best buys also
need to be considered. Mr. Bressner reminded the Commission there needed to be funding for
administrative costs included in the allocation.
Mr. Bressner recapped that $400,000 would go to the Ocean Breeze Project contingent upon
receipt of matching funds from the County within six months, $2,273,311 to foreclosures and
$290,000 for administrative costs. Staff would come back to the Commission with targeted
areas and properties for final approval.

Commissioner Hay moved of the $2.9 million, $400{OOO would go to the Ocean Breeze Project,
$290,000 for administrative costs and the remaIning balance for foreclosures Clty-wlde{
contingent upon the matching funds from the County being received within six months or the

SUBJECT: eonsideration of Action on Ocean Breeze Site
SUMMARY: At the November 5, 2008 City Commission meeting, the Commission voted to allocate
$400,000 of the eity's $2.9M Neighborhood Stabilization Funds to the Ocean Breeze west project to
develop 32 single-family homes. The funding is contingent upon the developer receiving an equal
allocation from the eounty. According to County Housing and eommunity Development Department
staff, there are no funds remaining in their 08/09 budget that could be allocated to this project.
Due to the contingencies set by the Commission on the City NSP funds, the project is not fmanciaUy
feasible unqer the current Purchase Agreement with American Realty.
\
FISCAL IMP ACT: The project will continue to remain vacant and off the tax rolls and will
produce no revenue to the eRA.
CRA PLAN, PROGRAM OR PROJECT: Heart of Boynton Plan
RECOMMENDATIONS: The Board may wish to consider the following options:
1. Send notice of default to American Realty per the purchase agreement between American Realty
and the eRA and land bank the property until property values increase such that the eRA can
recoup its investment by selling the property.
2. Terminate the contract with American Realty and sell the property to the highest bidder to raise
revenue for the MLK corridor project.
3. Terminate the contract with American Realty and go out for a THIRD RFP on the property.

CRA Board Meeting, Boynton Beach, FL 12/9/08
(Start of Item C, '7:34 p.m.)
MR. CHAIRMAN:
Okay, Item C 1S
consideration of action on the Ocean
Breeze site.
MS. BROOKS:
At the November 5th
city commission meeting, there was the
vote to allocate a percentage of the
city's NSP funds, neighborhood
stabilization funds, to the Ocean Breeze
project, 400 thousand of the 2.9 million.
CRA staff was unaware of the caveat that
was added at the meeting that we receive
a matching amount from the county within
six months. There are no current we
cannot utilize county NSP funds because
we're an entitlement city. The county
does not have they have allocated
their funds, their developer funds, for
the year. They will not have an opening
again and they have an opening in June
for a new allocation for developer
assistance for single-family homes. So
the lpSO facto effect of putting a SlX
month time line on getting a match from
CourtReporterN et.com (800) 960-1861
3
1 CRA Board Meeting, Boynton Beach, FL 12/9/08
2 the county basically renders the 400
3 thousand from the NSP unusable to the
4 project. And I'm asking for board
5 direction, what they want to do.
6 The money that was requested was for
7 down payment assistance. So the need to
8 have the match for the money within six
9 months is not quite logical because
10 you're not using that money until the end
11 of the project when you close on the
12 housing. So I'm not sure where that came
13 from, but so, the money is necessary.
14 It's the gap money to make the housing --
15 just like you heard from Jeff Wooster on
16 those units. It's
17 MR. CHAIRMAN: Yup. I personally
18 think this is a much needed project in
19 the heart of Boynton. We're talking how
20 many homes? Eight
21 MR. RODRIGUEZ: Thirty-two.
22 MS. BROOKS: Thirty-two homes. A
23 very much needed project and, well, I
24 realize the county is saying right now
25 that they don't have any money in their

fund, currently, and we're talking at
3
we're talking, though, at staff level
4
people.
I am meeting tomorrow with the
5
CRA executive director with one of the
6
county commissioners, and I hope to
7
pursue some other possibilities of
8
funding from the county.
So I would like
9
to have some extra time to keep pursuing
10
this.
I think this is so important that
11
we get these thirty-two homes built in
12
the heart of Boynton.
And the reason
13
we're talking six months is because this
14
board, when this first came to us, we
15
said well, if we don't get the money from
16
the county In six months, let's put the
17
money back to the city and let them
18
incorporate into the other, I think it
19
was two point some million we got,
20
something like that.
But that's all
21
right, I might be off a little bit
22
MR. SPEAKER:
(Indiscernible)
23
MR. CHAIRMAN:
Oh, okay.
So, but I
24
think they allowed us eighteen months to
25
make that happen.
Is that correct?

city has eighteen months to make it come
to reality. So I don't know why we would
want to restrict ourselves to six months
when we have, really, eighteen months to
play with here, and like I say, as Vivian
just said, we have until the end of that,
really, to spend that money.
MR. HAY: That six months was not a
federal compulsory
MR. CHAIRMAN:
No, we came up with
that.
That was ours.
MR. HAY: We came up with that.
MR. CHAIRMAN: We came up and said
oh, let's make sure we get it in six
months.
MR. CHEROF: We came up with that
because they'd been in default for at
least six months already. We gave them
another six months. They'd been in
default.
MR. HAY: We're shooting ourselves
in the foot. Let me hear from the city
manager.
MR. CHAIRMAN:
Yes.

is HUD
BRESSNER: Well, the good news
we sent the application, the
entire packet to HUD, and we made it bv
the deadline. And as far as this
activity, HUD has preliminarily said it's
okay to use the funds, sc you passed that
first hurdle. The only comment we got
back from HUD on the application itself
was that the dollars that were to be used
for the purchase of the homes, of the
homes was to it needs to be In areas
where there was a stronger or a higher
concentration of foreclosed homes, which
would be mainly in the northwest quadrant
and In the northeast, which we kind of
thought was going to be the case.
When we submitted the application,
initially, we put the entire community.
They said no, you have to concentrate.
That's not to say that we won't be able
to get some funding from some other parts
of the community, but they're going to be
looking mainly at the northeast and
northwest. But the 400 thousand dollar

defeats that purpose.

That is where that money from the NFP
came from.

Affordable Housing. When we received the
notice from the city that there was the
restriction of the six months, there was
e-mail correspondence with Ms. LaRocque
and myself to determine if it made sense,
because we'd learned that the monies were
already pledged for the current year.
Her response was, I believe it's
important that you get this project in
the pipeline. Typically, projects fall
out, or you would definitely be in the
pipeline to be considered for next year.
As -- in our discussions with the
city manager and his staff, at the
neighborhood stabilization meeting, it
was requested that when we went back to
Commissioner Greene that we include city
staff. There's a whole posse of us going
down to meet Commissioner Addie Greene
tomorrow to let her know how excited we
are about this project, jointly, and to
see if there's any monies that she has
available, and seek her support that this

only a few experts in the business; we're
engaged with two of them. So I think
that that might make some community
issues is if a developer says they can do
it, we all really know what the real cost
of construction is today, and the cost of
affordable housing. I think this area's
won some national awards, local awards,
and some state recognition for our
program.
So I think it's important that the
public understands that we've been in
this cycle with this site since the land
was purchased in early 2007. So I
don't -- I'm not supportive of pushing an
agenda that would delay the project
further or to get those thirty-two
homes, single-family homes on the west
side, especially since Mr. Wooster just
indicated his demand is keeping pace with
the previously budgeted 400 thousand for
the other project the board pushed.

representing ARD. This 400 thousand
dollar contribution, which is going to
the first-time home buyers, is
effectively writing down the cost of the
house for the buyer. So, you know, if
you didn't give us the money to write
down the retail value of the home, those
homes are going to be sold for more
money. So, what effectively we're doing
is reducing the price of the home for the
end buyer. So this allows somebody who
makes a lot less money to qualify for
that house.
Otherwise, we've got to add

we can build those homes, and
sell those homes, for more
money. But we don't want to do that We
want to reduce the retail value of these
homes to the end user so that their
buyers so the buyers can actually
qualify for these homes. Because we're
talking about low and very low income AMI
buyers. And these folks, you know, need
to be given every opportunity. So, you

Boynton Beach,
is money that
1 2 '9 8
Fl
the money
was originally allocated for to buy
foreclosed homes to redevelop
neighborhoods. That's what that money
this is what that money's for. And we
said we want to do that as soon as
possible so that
at some point, this
market's going to turn back up. And as
soon as it turns back up, these homes are
going to get more expensive. And so we
talked about that at the city commission
meeting that we wanted to buy them as
soon as possible so we can get them at
the low price and refurbish them and
supply them back out to the market.
So if we're going to wait eighteen
months to use this money, by the time
eighteen months comes around, this
money's worth, you know, 250 thousand.
And we made that point at the commission
meeting.
MR. BRESSNER:
No, I don't think
that's what the mayor said or the
chair said. I think we've got eighteen
CourtReporterNet.com (800) 960-1861
29
1 eRA Board Meeting, Boynton Beach, FL 12/9/08
2 months to begin -- encumber the dollars
3 and spend it. So, you can start any
4 time, but we won't not get final approval
5 on the funding until February of 2009, at
6 the earliest. We only got a preliminary
7 okay with the -- as I indicated before
8 the stipulation that we reorient where
9 we're purchasing the foreclosed homes
10 when they did the initial review on our
11 grant application last week. So we
12 resubmitted it with that data, but we've
13 not gotten final approval yet on the
14 grant. But we will not receive final
15 approval much before February of 2009.
16 If you're going to be starting the clock
17 running, I would start it at least six
18 months from February, not six months from
19 November, at least.
20 But it sounds to me that your
21 conversation you may have tomorrow with
22 the county commission member and what

12 market conditions and financing
13 availability for first-time home buyers,
14 the subsidy, in and of itself, is a
15 crucial piece to these buyers getting
16 financing, because they don't have a
17 twenty percent down payment and they
18 don't always have the credit criteria
19 that needs to be utilized for Fannie Mae
20 financing.
21 So I just would like the board to

you know, idea for these buyers.
Because
12
if we take that out and we're leaving it
13
to just the developers to find financing

for these buyers, you aJso have an

Meeting Minutes
Community Redevelopment Agency Board
Boynton Beach, Florida
December 9, 2008
Ms. Brooks noted the item was on the agenda at the request of the Chief of Police in
order for the Board to gauge the effectiveness of the CRA policing efforts. There had
been a change in the reporting method. The old report consisted of an Excel
spreadsheet, while the new report consisted of an Excel spreadsheet and a narrative of
the activities performed by the team during the time period. A summarization was
included as to number and type of arrests made by police districts. Sgt. DeGiulio
provided a more in-depth narrative report from March through October 2008 which
included a year-to-date net gain or loss in criminal activities. Essentially 95% of the
CRA area was encompassed within the policing reporting areas. Ms. Bright pointed out
the CRA Policing Unit would not mark its one-year anniversary until March 17th and as
such, the benchmark was difficult to establish.
Bob Brown, 701 South Seacrest, requested meeting materials be provided at the front
desk. Chair Taylor suggested Mr. Brown stop by the CRA office, at which time he would
be provided with copies.
Ms. Brooks asked for a consensus as to whether the new reporting form was
acceptable. Attorney Cherof recommended the format be accepted by motion.
Motion
Mr. Hay moved to accept the format. Mr. Weiland seconded the motion that passed
unanimously.
B. Consideration of CRA Boundary Amendment Action
Ms. Brooks reported the issue had been resolved after two and a half years. Chair
Taylor, Attorney Cherof, Ms. Bright and Ms. Brooks met with Palm Beach County
Appraiser Gary Nikolits and his staff. Mr. Nikolits will be able to create the new CRA
districts in the year of annexation of the projects. As a result, the CRA would be
receiving the revenue for the improvements to the projects, and the five-year budget
projections were on target. Additionally, the Property Appraiser did not expect the
valuation drop to be as severe as anticipated, and would be closer to 5%. The City
Manager's projections were approximately 4.5% for the CRA.
Chair Taylor expressed his appreciation to Ms. Bright, Ms. Brooks and Attorney Cherof
for their efforts in resolving the issue to the benefit of the CRA. A tremendous amount
of work was involved in bringing the matter to fruition.
C. Consideration of Action on Ocean Breeze Site
Ms. Brooks advised action had been taken at the November 5, 2008 City Commission
meeting to allocate $400,000 of the City's $2.9M Neighborhood Stabilization Funds

(NSF) to the Ocean Breeze Project. CRA staff was unaware of the caveat added at the
meeting that the CRA receive matching funds from the County within six months. She
explained County Neighborhood Stabilization Funds (NSF) could not be utilized because
Boynton Beach was an entitlement City. The County had allocated their development
funds for the year and would not be able to allocate funds for developer assistance until
June. The six-month requirement to obtain matching funds from the County rendered
the $400,000 from Neighborhood Stabilization Funds (NSF) unusable to the project.
Additionally, the six-month caveat was illogical. The funding requested was for down-
payment assistance and the funds would not be utilized until the project had been
completed and closings occurred.
Chair Taylor believed Ocean Breeze was a much-needed project in the Heart of Boynton
which would provide homes for 32 single families. Chair Taylor would be meeting with
the CRA Executive Director and a County Commissioner in order to pursue other
funding opportunities from the County. He requested additional time to pursue this.
Regardless of the six-month proviso required by the City Commission, the City would
have 18 months within which to encumber the funds.
Kurt Bressner, City Manager, advised the application packet had been sent to the
Federal Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), and HUD noted its
preliminary approval of the City's use of the $400,000. The only comment received
from HUD was that the dollars that were to be used to purchase the homes were to be
utilized in areas having a higher concentration of foreclosed homes, mainly in the
northwest and northeast quadrants. That did not mean that funding would not be
available for other parts of the community.
Ms. Brooks advised the land was being subsidized. The project was not in default on
the west side, as the Board executed an amendment to the contract granting an
extension to American Realty.
Vice Chair Rodriguez advised he had received calls from developers who agreed to
develop the project at affordable prices if the land were subsidized. He believed this
should be explored.
Ms. Bright noted staff previously met with the developer, Assistant County Administrator
Shannon LaRocque, and Ed Lowery, who dealt with Community Development and
entitlement funds. While the County did not have funds available this year, Ms.
LaRocque believed it was important for the project to be in the "pipeline" to be
considered next year. Staff would be meeting with County Commissioner Addie Greene
in search of funding and support for the project. Ms. Bright did not believe the
community would be pleased if a third Request for Proposals (RFP) was sought. She
did not favor delaying the project further.

Frank Chirkinian, representing American Realty Development CARD), commented the
$400,000 contribution allowed American Realty Development (ARD) to write down the
retail value of the homes and reduce the cost to the buyers. He contended he could
build and sell the homes for more money, but he did not wish to do so.
Ms. Brooks noted there were two purchase agreements relating to the sale of two
parcels of land. The purchase agreement addressed at this meeting related to property
on the west side. The original the cost of the land was $1.2 million, but was written
down to $600,000. It was noted there had been no material changes in the cost to
develop housing other than a slight change in construction costs.
Chair Taylor requested the six month deadline originally imposed by the City
Commission on November 5, 2008 be lifted so that other funding opportunities could be
explored. Vice Chair Rodriguez felt that, although the funds were not required to be
encumbered for 18 months, they would be worth considerably less at that time.
Mr. Bressner explained that final approval of the funding would not be received until
February 2009, at the earliest. He suggested the six-month requirement begin running
from February rather than November, but believed the City Commission might wish to
amend its previous timeline. He felt the County might be able to provide funding for
,/ the next fiscal year.
Chair Taylor suggested that the Board make a motion requesting the City Commission
reconsider the six-month deadline on the project.
Motion
Ms. Ross moved to recommend that the City reconsider the six-month timeframe. Mr.
Hay seconded the motion.
Peggy Miller pointed out the funding provided to the buyers was not a gift and had to
be repaid. Based on current market conditions, the subsidy was crucial for buyers to
obtain financing.
Ms. Bright noted that at the August 12, 2008 Board meeting, there was consensus to
move ahead with the project by giving American Realty the land. Staff also supported
the request to develop the property on the west side. Ms. Brooks noted the contract
would have to be revised and the item brought back to the Board.
The motion passed unanimously.

RECOMMENDATION: Remove the contingency of receiving a match to the City's NSP funds within six months for the
Ocean Breeze West project.
EXPLANA nON: At the November 5, 2008 City COllunission meeting, the Commission voted to allocate $400,000 of the
City's $2.9M Neighborhood Stabilization Funds to the Ocean Breeze west project to develop 32 single-family homes to
provide down-payment assistance to low and moderate income purchasers. However. the allocation was made contingent
upon the developer receiving an equal allocation from the County within six months (fi'om what date is not clear from the
minutes).
According to County's Housing and Community Development Department staff, there are no funds remaining in their 08/09
budget that could be allocated to this project. One of the possible sources of down payment assistance is the State
Homeownership Pool Program (HOP) where funds are allocated to each buyer on a first-come, first serve basis. Therefore,
there is no way to allocate all $400,000 within a six-month period.
The requirement of a match within six months is onerous on the project since the funds being sought are for the purpose of
down payment assistance. and will not needed until the closing of each home. The NSP guidelines do not put such a timing
restriction Oil the funds. Additionally, the attached memo from Quintus Greene, Development Director, does not mention
such a restriction.

deal or redevelopment effort. Commissioner Hay seconded the motion. The motion passed 4-
1. (Mayor Taylor dissenting.)
Mayor Taylor maintained that the Old High School was not worth saving for $8 million and a
catalyst for the City could be built at the site for much less. Taxpayers are still subsidizing
restoration projects in other cities and they remain a drain on those communities. The Old High
School building is totally deteriorated inside and would have to be completely rebuilt inside with
only the outside shell remaining.
Vice Mayor Rodriguez reiterated the intent of his motion was to use the Old High School as an
incentive in return for the new project and incorporate the Old High School into any
development decisions being made.
Mayor Taylor stressed the discussion thus far involved the site of the current City Hall only. He
had suggested offering more land to make the deal even better. However, he would not
include the Old High School site based on the decision of the Commission.
Commissioner Weiland had supported saving the Old High School, but did not feel it would
come to fruition. He agreed with letting the voters decide on a referendum issue.
Herb Suss, 1711 Woodfern Drive, echoed Mr. Edward's remarks. A referendum vote would
allow the citizens to have a voice in the decision. If an alternative can be found in the interim,
the Old High School would have had two options for survival.

Stabilization Program (NSP) funds within six months for the Ocean Breeze West

Mayor Taylor reported he had a met with Lisa Bright, Community Redevelopment Executive
Director and Addie Green, County Commissioner, stressing the need for the matching funds to
commence the Ocean Breeze West project for construction of 38 single family homes. Ms.
Green was very positive, but could make no guarantees. Vice Mayor Rodriguez was
encouraged, but felt a time limit of eighteen months should be included.

MEMO
TO:
Quintus Greene, Development Director
FROM:
Vivian Brooks, Assistant Director
DATE:
January 6, 2009
RE:
Allocation of NSP and CRALS funds for Ocean Breeze
cc:
Lisa A. Bright, Executive Director
Kurt Bressner, City Manager
Lori La V erriere, Assistant City Manager
Octavia Sherrod, Community Improvement Manager
In response to your attached memo dated October 21, 2008, please see my answers to
your questions below:
1. It is my recommendation that the CRA have a soft second on each home;
similar to the one we use with the Agency's Homebuyer's Assistance Program
(HAP). This will prevent flipping of the units and ensure long-term
affordability.
2. The site plan is not complete, so the total number of units is not set. There will
be approximately 28 - 32 units in the development and 25% of those will be
sold to families with incomes 50% or below ofMHI. The remainder of the
units will be sold to families earning at or below 120% of MHI.
3. Project activity has begun. The developer is working on the site plan and civil
engineering. Based on a four month site plan and rezoning timeline,
groundbreaking should occur for a model no later than late summer 09.
4. NSP/CRALS funds will be used to reduce the cost of each home. The amount
ofNSP/CRALS funds per home will be based on the amount of subsidy needed
by the buyer. We foresee that the low-income buyers will have more subsidy
and therefore a larger second mortgage in favor of the CRA. The second
mortgage will be for a term of 30 years. No interest will be charged ifthe buyer
abides by the terms of the mortgage.
r have a number of technical questions regarding the allocation of eRA].:-; and N~P
funds for the Ocean Breeze project:
]. Now that the Commission has removed the six month matching fund~
requirement, what is the tirneline to expend the NSP funds?
2. Can the funds be drawn down now and passed to the buyer through a reduction
on the purchase price of the home? Does the City want a soft second on each
home? If so, what would that amount be; $500,000/number of homes? Would
the City entertain a joint mortgage with the eRA. that would cover both ~ubsidies
in the project rather than a second and third mortgage?
3. In your memo dated October 21, 2008 (attached) you state that the eRA is the sub
recipient of the NSP funds, Is that true of the eRA},S funds also?
4. What are the restrictions, if any, on the CRALS funds?
5. If the CRA is the sub recipient of both funds can tbe funds be paid to the CR,-\'
now and if so, should there be an ILA between the City and eRA that outlines the
CRA's obligations and deliverables referenced in your memo?
Please let me know how you want to proceed. Thanks

b. Adoption of Resolution Deeding Certain Portions of 222 N. Federal to the
City for Public Right-of-Way
Ms. Brooks explained in October 2002, when the Community Redevelopment Agency
purchased the property, it was much larger. The design of the Boynton Beach Boulevard
Extension took a portion of the property (the Relax Inn site). Through an interlocal agreement,
staff was to draft a deed giving that portion to the City for the public right-of-way; however, it
never occurred. Had it been drafted, it would have had a lower assessed value. This item was
to correct the oversight from the prior director.
Motion
Vice Chair Hay moved to approve the resolution and approve the execution of the Quit Claim
Deed transferring the property identified in Quit Claim Deed from the Community
Redevelopment Agency to the City. Mr. Weiland seconded the motion that unanimously
passed.
Ms. Brooks explained under the Direct Incentive from the TIF funds, the Agency was required to
file a Value Adjustment Board hearing request, which was done. The oversight was discovered
while staff was researching the issue. A new survey was obtained and they received a
reduction Of 26% of the assessed valuation of the property for 2009, or about a $5,700 refund
on the taxes for 2009.

a. Consideration of Issuing an RFP for Eight Single-Family Lots in HOB
Ms. Brooks explained when the item was discussed with the community regarding what they
wanted to have, and plans were floated to the community regarding the Martin Luther King
corridor. Over the years, the Community Redevelopment Agency acquired land both on the
corridor and on 9th and 11th in preparation for the massive redevelopment. The Treasure Coast
Regional Planning Council had studied how much retail the corridor could hold. It did not
exceed 40,000 square feet. The Heart of Boynton Plan had two small sections zoned C-2
Commercial at Seacrest and MLK and Federal Highway and MLK. They had eight lots that
were not commercial, nor were they recommended to be commercial in the plan. If the Board
desired, the lots could be developed as new single-family infill housing. Staff brought the item
forward for the Board's consideration.
The members discussed ownership of some of the nearby lots. When developing the area,
there had been discussion that three to five acres was needed for a phase I development. Vice
Chair Hay understood staff was land banking until such time as they could develop the strip
from 5eacrest and MLK to a portion of 9th on the east side of 5t. John Missionary Baptist
Church. With the land the Community Redevelopment Agency owned, plus the Roberts
property, the little church's property, the five lots, plus what the City owned, there would be a
large parcel. It was thought there would be development, but not single-family housing. Vice
Chair Hay thought the concept of land banking should be continued until the market tumed
around. He did not think it was prudent to give it up now. Larry Finkelstein had stopped the
development. The Board had declined to purchase two of the "King" properties in May at
$50,000 each. Mr. Finkelstein subsequently purchased the lots. Through the Community

Committee, the Community Redevelopment Agency staff was attempting to purchase the
Vilamarin property; however, the Committee did not want staff to purchase the property.
Ms. Bright explained one of the challenges was the community's frustration in that they did not
get the commercial development and they needed the depth of those Jots to accommodate
some serious type of development. Additionally, since Mr. Finkelstein paid $70,000 for the lots,
and they did not have the depth for the development needed, members of the community
expressed frustration nothing was happening. Additionally, the Community Redevelopment
Agency would now have to pay a minimum of $70,000 plus a profit for those two lots. Staffs
appraisal came in at $50,000 and the Board was not interested in purchasing those lots for
what was being asked. When staff doesn't purchas~ the land, it creates issues and in the
future, the Board would have to deal with Mr. Finkelstein.
Ms. Brooks noted they were obtaining a survey for the north side of MLK to 1 st and there was
an interested party looking to put retail there. The party was interested in about 20,000 square
feet of retail space. The Roberts and the Church properties could have small retail space that
could be used for incubator space. Staff could transition small operators from the Small
Business Development Program they are starting in January. The full amount of parking spa<;es
would not be required because MLK has a 50% parking reduction allowance. Part of the retail
would be a grocery store, which would assist staff in obtaining tax credits, and bolster the
Ocean Breeze East and West projects. It was noted that area was the only area to develop
commercial property in the Heart of Boynton.
Discussion followed whether the Board should wait to develop the area or take more immediate
action. It was noted one property owner, Ms. Bell, wanted $1 million firm for her property. Mr.
Barry was also not interested in selling. There was discussion at what point they should move
forward. Land banking meant waiting to acquire land and holding it. Staff .needed policy
direction.
Willie Aiken, 726 NE 1st Street, Boynton Beach, spoke about the north corner of Seacrest and
MLK Boulevard. At 11th, there were two parcels that needed to be purchased in order to locate
the retail there. He inquired what happened to the concept. Ms. Brooks explained they could
not get the owner to sell. Staff approached the developer with what they had to work with and
was advised they were obtaining a survey. It was possible the developer could still develop
there because the City abandoned the alley, which provided an additional 7.5 feet.
There was discussion about land swapping in the area. The Community Redevelopment
Agency owns five lots on 9th Avenue. Staff would need eight more lots; however, the owners of
those lots were unwilling to sell. Ms. Brooks had spoken with one owner there who was not
interested and three of the properties were homesteaded. The developer can squeeze in 20,000
square feet on the north side of MLK to the alley. It was noted there was no demand for retail
space on the south side. Ms. Brooks sent information to the literacy Coalition of Palm Beach
and showed them a vacant site which could accommodate a new 20,000 square foot
headquarters, and would create jobs. The Ocean Breeze East area was also an option since
they needed to be on a Palm Tran route.
Discussion followed about how to proceed. Chair Taylor advised he could go either way, and
acknowledged Vice Chair Hay's thoughts to land bank. Mr. Weiland thought the likelihood of a
large scale development occurring within the next five to ten years was untikely.

Mr. Rodriguez felt this was the best time to redevelop. He recommended moving forward with
an RFP and evaluating it. Vice Chair Hay could consider moving ahead with the RFP but
requested hearing from the other speakers.
Victor Norfus advised many individuals want to sell, but do not want to sell for the price the
Community Redevelopment Agency wants to pay. Residents find out the going rate and hold
out. He agreed staff should land bank, but did not want to rush things since the Master Plan
was not agreed to. He thought the land could support a business incubator and advised the
residents wanted to see something. The community was restless because nothing was being
constructed. He reiterated there are start-up businesses that could benefit from a successful
incubator, but advised not to construct a bunch of Habitat homes. He thought some retail should
be constructed.
Mr. Rodriguez/eft the dais at 7:39 p.rn.
Mr. Norfus indicated staff may have to pay more or wait longer, but staff should give hope and
inspiration.
Motion
Vice Chair Hay moved to direct staff to prepare an RFP for the January 2010 agenda with the
desired outcome included in the language of the RFP. Ms. Ross seconded the motion that
unanimously passed. (Mr. Rodriguez not presenf for the vote.)
b. Consideration of Reinstating Community Meeting Grant Program
Ms. Brooks explained this item was a recommendation from the Community Committee.
Although the Carolyn Sims Center was open, neighborhood associations had to pay for meeting
space, which was problematic. This item would reinstate a program the Board had last year,
which would allow the organization to come in and apply for assistance with paying a fee to the
City to meet at one of the City's facilities. The funding was reprogrammed from a District III
event to this program.
Mr. Rodriguez returned at 7:42 p.rn.
Ms. Bright felt that If the program was reinstated, the Board would be pleased. The organization
signs that they are liable for damages incurred to the facility.
Motion
Vice Chair Hay moved to approve the reinstating of the HOA Meeting Grant. Ms. Ross
seconded the motion.
Staff recommended covering the cost of the program. It was noted staff holds 21 events on
Ocean Avenue, and since the community wanted the program, this was the best way to fund it.
After discussion, it was agreed the funds should come from the contingency account, so an
event could be held on the south end of town. It was noted the Board had approved holding an
event on the south end of town during the Budget Hearings. The amount to cover the

X. Old Business:
A. Consideration of Issuing an RFP for 8 Lots in MLK Corridor
Ms. Brooks reviewed the Heart of Boynton plan was adopted in 2001, There had been
other plans by the' private development community for the area and there were some
misunderstandings about what the plan called for. Ms. Brooks explained the plan
evolved from community involvement. A PowerPoint presentation was viewed, which
entailed the community's likes and dislikes. It was noted several issues raised by the
community had already been addressed.
Ms. Bright explained they sent a letter to Joe Zalman, Executive Director for Palm
Beach County Housing Authority regarding staff's ongoing desire to obtain the Cherry
Hill properties. The Housing Authority Executive Board hired an independent consultant
from Nebraska, who surveyed various stakeholders in Palm Beach County with the goal
being to address what the problems were with the Authority. Ms. Bright did not
anticipate any response from the survey, but wanted the public to know they were
communicating with the Authority and trying to move forward with a plan. There were
26 vacant parcels. Staff was successful in having homes demolished there, but the
properties remained a nuisance. She also emphasized their goal is to have the property
developed either by staff or by assisting a private developer. The Board approved
funding for the master plan for Sara Sims Park and just ordered the survey. They were
working with REG to develop it. '
A proposed zoning map was shown. There had been much discussion on what to have
on MLK. The east and west area of MLK was proposed as commercial development.
The area was not very large. The other areas along MLK were low density residential.
Ms. Brooks believed some of the direction they were going in regarding its development
was driven by an overactive market. The conceptual plan had a small node of
commercial and she commented neighborhood services and small businesses were
needed. She anticipated in a good economy, the maximum amount of com1;l1ercial
space the area co~ld hold would be 20,000 to a maximum of 50,000 square feet.
There has been repeated outcry from the Community Committee for the Community
Redevelopment Agency to build on its land. Staff was still trying to put land together on
the north side of MLK for a grocery store and other retail. She noted they needed three
more lots. On the south side of MLK they were under contract for a parcel, cind the
Community Redevelopment Agency owned the church 'to the south. REG was under

Meeting Minutes
Community Redevelopment Agency
Boynton Beach, FL
January 12, 2010
The HOB plan had never been amended or updated, and in the current economy, the
plan was sensible. Ms. Brooks explained the Community Redevelopment Agency does
not own all of the land in the area; rather, most of it was owned by the City or was
privately held. Of jhe eight lots proposed for the RFP, St. John Missionary Baptist
Church approached them to build a day care center on lots 3, 4 and 5, which the Board
could consider. Lot 8 could accommodate a single-family home and on 9th Stre(3t, they
could build duplex or triplex dwellings. She noted there has been a lot of housing' lost in
the Heart of Boynton due to the demolition of Boynton Terrace and Cherry Hill. Ms.
Brooks advised the Board does not have to issue an RFP, but wanted to bring the
proposal forward since it was in response to discussions with" the community and
committee.
There was much discussion about partnering with the City to issue one RFP and have
the area developed at one time. Mr. Rodriguez proposed to table the item and work
with the City Commission and City Manager to see if they could create a greater impact
by developing the,whole strip with one RFP. The zoning was residential, which was a
challenge in selling the property to a developer. Commercial lots were easier to RFP.
They could construct multi-family housing if that was the intent. Most developers do not
want to go through the process to change the zoning.
Quintus Greene, Development Director, indicated there was a large parcel to the north
they secured from the County, which had a restriction for public use. The only W~y they
could redevelop the parcel was to swap the parcel with a parcel of the same size to
satisfy the public use restriction. The City was trying to assemble developable parcels,
which is a minimum of three to five acres. They were working with the CO/Tl!'l1unity
Redevelopment Agency to this end. It was noted some property owners did not want to
sell and other individuals purchased property speculating the City or Community
Redevelopment Agency would buy them out. Mr. Greene opined if an RFP could be
properly structured, the City might be receptive to the suggestion. .
Ms. Brooks cautioned the Board, as it pertained to when large development tracks are
offered for housing, that the funding for multi-family housing in a neighborhood with ~his
type of income no longer exists. The Florida Housing Trust Funds were depleted in
order to balance the State budget. For smaller type duplex developments there were
some funds. There were no SHIP or Low Income Housing Tax Credit funds available.
Ms. Bright commented that in light of the fact there were individuals interested in the
Roberts parcel for incubator space and a proposal from St. John Missionary Baptist
Church for an educational component of the church, that staff did not want to spend a
lot of money considering proposals or renovating the building if the Board and/or City
Commission would make some other type of decision. .

Meeting Minutes

Boynton Beach, FL
January 12, 2010
Motion
Mr. Rodriguez moved to table the item and the Community Redevelopment Agency staff
engaged in discussion with the City Staff in proposing potentially a combination RFP for
all the lots that are available. Ms. Ross seconded the motion that unanimously passed.
The correspondence received by Ms. Bright would be shared with City staff.
B. Consideration of Lien Release for Village Homemade fee Cream
Ms. Brooks explained originally they received a request from the grant recipient to waive
the lien; however, there was now a lis pendens on the property. If the lien were waived,
they could sell the property. It was noted there was no potential buyer.
The Community Redevelopment Agency was responsible to the County for $50,000,
The request was similar to the foreclosure for the Delray Boynton Academy who
received $50,000 from the Community Redevelopment Agency and $50,000 from the
County. The county program was no longer in existence. If the Board waived the lien,
the owner could give the property away through a deed in lieu of foreclosure. In two or
three years, the market could turn around and the Board could recapture some of the
monies. In the meanwhile, should they find a buyer, they could approach staff of such
and perhaps something could be negotiated. Palm Beach County subordinateq to the
Community Redevelopment Agency so staff was in charge of the entire $100,000
amount. The property did not appraise for the value of the mortgage. It was noted this
was the only grant they had of this nature.
Motion
Mr. Rodriguez moved to deny the release of the lien, Ms. Ross seconded the motion
that unanimously passed,
C. Consideration of Amendment to HAP Program
Mr. Simon explained the item was in response to a Board request to review options to
revise the program further and protect the HAP funds. He reported since 2006, the
Board assisted over 30 homebuyers and there were only two foreclosures over the rast
three years. Four options were received as follows:
./ Revise the maximum grant award for all income categories as noted in the
agenda item;
..r Revise the maximum percentage of public subsidy funding for all income
categories;

SUBJECT: Consideration ofIssuing an RFP for 8 Lots in MLK Corridor
SUMMARY: On November 10, 2009, the was discussion at the CRA Board meeting about spurring
development along Martin Luther King, Jr. Blvd. by issuing an Request for Proposals for certain parcels in the
MLK corridor owned by the CRA. The community has urged the Agency to building on its land.
The Heart of Boynton Community Redevelopment Plan calls for small nodes of commercial development at
MLK/Seacrest and MLKlFederal. The remainder of the MLK corridor is proposed as multi-family. SEE
ATTACHED PROPOSED LAND USE MAP AND MASTER PLAN CONTEXT FROM THE PLAN.
/'
The CRA owns eight lots within the MLK corridor. SEE ATTACHED MAP OF RFP LOTS. These lots are
located within the area proposed as multi-family by the HOB Redevelopment Plan. However, three of the lots
stand alone and therefore would be more appropriate for new single-family homes.
As directed, staffhas drafted a Request for Proposals for the eight lots. SEE ATTACHED RFP. Some key
points of the RFP are:
1. Respondents shall prove the financial feasibility of their proposal.
2. Proposals must be inclusive of all eight lots.
3. Design must be consistent with the HOB Plan and Schematics.
FISCAL IMPACT: N/A
CRA PLAN, PROGRAM OR PROJECT: Heart of Boynton Community Redevelopment Plan
RECOMMENDATION: Issue the RFP effective January 14,2010.

paid on the bonds would return to the City, but the deal has to close by December 31.,
2010. It would be very positive for the community and the downtown area.
He also inquired about the number of general contractors that are utilized by the CRA
and their specialties. Ms. Bright recalled in 2007, after an RFQ was issued, three firms
were selected based on their expertise. Those selected were Hendrich Brothers
specializing in mid to large size projects, Burkhart Construction who built Boynton
Beach Boulevard extension, and Kaufman Lind who has expertise in large municipal
facilities. Also, Kimley-Horn is the engineering professional services contractor. Mr.
Weiland inquired if it would be possible for the City to piggyback on Kaufman Lind's
contract with the CRA for the police facility. Attorney Cherof advised piggybacking on a
general assignment contract was not allowed. The piggyback had to be on something
more specific, such as a company who has done a police department or public works
facility. A recent contract with a government agency for like services would be needed.
Ms. Ross thanked Ms. Bright for sending the Board Members the information on
Practical Strategies for Florida CRAs to address the foreclosure crisis. She asked that
the highlights of the publication be presented to the Board at the next meeting. Ms.
Bright would get an update on the Neighborhood Stabilization Program and bring it
before the Board.
She also read the following sentence from the recent editorial. "We remain committed to
a policy that homes, subsidized with taxpayer funding, should be long lasting and
sustainable and have included improvements such as a 50-year standing seam metal
roofs and impact resistant windows."
Vice Chair Hay commented there were properties within the City owned by the CRA and
the City that are not coming together as a plan. He inquired if the City had contacted
the CRA to develop a strategy. Ms. Bright indicated there had been no contact. Vice
Chair Hay directed staff to take the init,iative with the City staff and develop a land swap
strategy and come back to the CRA Board and then the City Commission. A plan would
then be in place for both entities to move forward, Ms. Bright agreed to get something
drafted to start the discussion.
Mr. Weiland admitted it has been frustrating and continuity of the plans was needed for
the City to move forward. It was the reason he wanted to promote phase two of the
marina and the west side of Seacrest to be a positive movement toward working
together rather than talking. Ms. Ross agreed completely. Vice Chair Hay declared
there was consensus. Ms. Bright clarified that the Board was directing staff to
implement phase one transfer of land.

Lisa,
How about Tuesday afternoon, February 23 at 4pm if I can get City staff lined up? We may
need more than one meeting before the CRA meeting anyway.
Ocean Breeze/Auburn: I've asked Vivian for more specifics of the Auburn tax credit
proposal for Ocean Breeze. This was in a different email. I have to have my action to sign
the forms ratified by the City Commission on March 2nd. If they decline we will ask Auburn
to withdraw their application to the state.
We will come to the CRA for the meeting on Tuesday afternoon.

. Quintus Greene stated that the County deed restriction on the City owned property on the south side of
MLK Blvd. east of Seacrest had expired in 2005 and therefore was no longer a consideration in the
property exchange.
. The group agreed that the CRA would transfer its properties on the west side of Seacrest within the MLK
area and that the City would transfer its land on the east side of Seacrest to the CRA
. Subsequently, an RFP would be issued for a portion of east MLK Blvd. for multi-family residential
development and three single-family infilllots.
. Development of the property on the north side of MLK would be held off until a determination of its ultimate
use could be made.
Implementation Steps:
. City Commission and CRA Board approval of land transfers
. City and CRA staff to coordinate on RFP draft.
. CRA Board to issue RFP
. CRA and City staff to review responses and make a recommendation
Legal Clarification Needed:
1. Are appraisals required for intergovernmental land exchange?
2. Is Public Notice of Intent to Dispose needed upon Board/Commission decision to transfer the land?

SUBJECT: Consideration of Amendments to the CRA Commercial Fa<;ade Improvement Grant Program
Guidelines and Application for FY 2009-2010
SUMMARY: The CRA has been administering the Commercial Fa<;ade Improvement Grant
Program to eligible businesses since October 2005. The purpose of the program is to encourage
commercial property owners to upgrade the exterior appearance of their properties thereby improving the
overall appearance of the CRA district commercial corridors. Currently, maximum grant awards under
the Commercial Fa<;ade Improvement Grant Program are $15,000 to assist commercial property owners
with exterior fa<;ade projects such as painting, awnings, signage, exterior lighting, irrigation and
landscaping.
At their July 14, 2009, meeting, the CRA Board approved the FY 2009-2010 Commercial Fa<;ade
Improvement Program Guidelines & Application. Under the current guidelines, a "property" is limited
to one (1) fa<;ade grant every five (5) years. This language prohibits individual tenants of multi-unit
commercial properties such as Ocean Plaza or Las Ventanas from applying for eligible items under the
grant if the overall property owner had previously applied and received grant funding.
Since approving the FY 2009-2010 Guidelines, CRA staff has met with several applicants who are
tenants ofthe multi-bay buildings but the building owner will not sign-off on their application for fear of
limiting the property's ability to apply for a future grant. Similarly, we have also had existing tenants,
new tenants or new property owners approach CRA staff about applying to the program but the
"property" they occupy has already received a grant and is ineligible for several more years.
To further support the implementation of the Federal Highway Corridor Plan and the Downtown Master
Plan, CRA staffwould like to recommend the following option:
1. Change the program language under Section 7 to read "The Fa<;ade Grant program may be used
one time within any five year period for anyone CRA Board approved applicant".
2. Eliminate Section 6 thereby requiring Board approval of the project prior to any work beginning.
FISCAL IMPACT: None
CRA PLAN, PROGRAM OR PROJECT: Boynton Beach Redevelopment Plan, Heart of
Boynton Plan, Federal Highway Corridor Plan, Downtown Master Plan
RECOMMENDATIONS: Approval of the amendments to the FY 2009-10 Commercial
Improvement Grant Program Guidelines and Application as attached.

Chair Taylor expressed he had the same concern with this program as the prior one,
which was to approve the requests 8dministratively. He also questioned why the first
option was to increase the maximum grant award from $20,000 to $25,000.
Mr. Simon expjained in many rehabilitation projects, staff had to eliminate items needing
repair in order to keep project costs clown. The program was not a matching grant
program. Discussion foHowed there had been prior dialogue to obtain additional grants
tor the southern end of town; however, there was no money and by Increasing the
amount of the grants, less of the population would be served.
Mr. Simon explained the City rehabHitation limit was $50,000. Sentiments were also
expressed the homeowner should bear some responsibifity for maintaining the home.
The program was standard among Community Redevelopment Agencies because it was
less expensive to improve housing stock than to construct a home. Some of the
southern area was blighted. The program was an income-based program and the
reason most of the residents in the southern part of the City were not served was
because their income Ievefs were too high. Staff directed a mailing be made to the
residents and a door hangar program be Implemented. It was pointed out rental
properties were excluded from the program and the matching grant program. Staff was
encouraged to hold an open house to share information tor the south end. The
constituents served ranged from low to moderate Income individuals. There was
consensus to have the program amount remain at $20,000.
Vice Chair Hay felt there may be some instances where they may need to go higher than
$20,000. Mr. Simon noted they often referred applicants to the City if the resident
needed additionalassistBnce.
The second option provided tor replacing non-functioning or damaged windows with
impact-rated single-hung windows when it was deemed doing so was more cost
effective or appropriate than to provide hurricane shutters. There was discussion impact
windows could stili shatter; the object just may not go all the way through. If the
windows were non-operational, and ingress and egress from the room was hindered by
the broken window, putting shutters over the window would not make sense.
It was noted some of the homes the Community Redevelopment Agency constructing
used windows Instead of shutters. After much discussion, there was consensus staff
would decide whether to use a w;ndow or shutter.
After additional discussion, It was ascertained staff routinely requests the contractor
price out the cost of impact windows and hurricane shutters. The Board's decision on the
three options was to limit the amount to $20,000. The Board was in agreement with
Option 2 as presented and not In agreement with Option 3 which was to approve the
items administratively.

build-outs inside the units. In the past, one or two requests to do so had been made but
the requests were deemed ineligible and were denied. Mr. Simon noted this would be
helpful to new businesses and start-up businesses.
Ms. Brooks explained the Promenade and Las Ventanas have about 62,000 square feet
of retail space which has unimproved interior space, no bathrooms, walls or electrical
amenities. Discussion included developers often give incentives to tenants for those
improvements.
In the downtown Master Plan Update, from an economic development standpoint, other
Community Redevelopment Agencies allowed for interior improvements as their goal
was to retain business. Staff wanted to retain and offer another incentive to locate to the
downtown area. Chair Taylor was not in favor of allowing the interior renovations. Mr.
Weiland agreed. Mr. Rodriguez would rather allocate funds to help attract and assist
businesses, as opposed to having hurricane shutters, which was one of the
recommendations of staff to allow for decorative elements.
Discussion followed individuals owning two or three properties within the district could
only apply for one grant. Presently, the Fac;:ade Program allowed a landlord with two
separate properties to apply for one grant per year. The change would allow a property
owner with multiple properties to be limited to two grant awards per year. Staff was also
requesting the program application and grant approval be administrative. Further
discussion ensued the grant should be a one-time grant leaving the property owner to
maintain the fac;:ade. It was noted, however, if a business sold then a new set of
circumstances applied.
There was discussion staff would allow one business owner one grant every five years.
If the property owner had multiple properties, they could only apply for one grant. The
maximum amount of funding an applicant could receive was up to $15,000.
There was consensus one property grant could be obtained every five years. and one
owner with multiple properties could apply for only one grant for that property. Multiple
grants could not be given for multiple properties. The decision was clarified further as a
property owner with two properties could apply for a grant for one property. After five
years the property owner could apply for a grant for the second property, based on
ownership or tenant.
Staff was amenable to recommendations 1 and 2. Recommendation 3 was eliminated.
Recommendation 4 was agreed to as discussed, and Recommendation 5 was denied.
Motion
Vice Chair Hay moved to approve to change the fayade grant as discussed. Mr.
Rodriguez seconded the motion that unanimously passed.
There was a motion regarding Agenda Item B1 - Homebuyers Assistance Program.

Motion
Ms. Ross moved to approve the changes as discussed. Vice Chair Hay seconded the
motion that unanimously passed.
C. Heart of Boynton Strategies Update
1. Alley Abandonment Status
Ms. Brooks explained the Community Committee requested the alleyways be
abandoned in an effort to reduce dumping. In working with Utilities, it was discovered
many of the alleys had manholes and there would be no benefit to the abandonment
because an access easement would still be needed.
Staff discussed using a fence to close the alleyways with the Utility Department. The
cost allocated for legal fees for the abandonments was about $85,000. Ms. Brooks
indicated some of the funds could be reallocated to another activity, and the program
could be implemented on an incremental basis. The gates would be locked and the
Utility Department would have the key, which would prevent access into the alley and
alleviate the dumping. Moving the manholes was not an option. There were 17
alleyways. The property owners would not own the property and consequently, they
could not plant anything on it. Staff was only preventing the illegal access and the City
would police the alleyways to ensure encroachment did not occur. The only change was
the alleyways would not be abandoned to the property owners. Staff would investigate
the cost of the fencing. The Board was amenable to the concept.
2. Consideration of Issuing RFP for Development of Small Business
Program
Ms. Brooks explained as an outcome of the Community Committee, staff was directed to
look for assistance for small businesses and offer training to help businesses start-up
and operate, or help small-based businesses grow. Staff was directed to look for free
services. After much research, it was ascertained there were free services that
individuals would have to attend either in Lake Worth at Palm Beach Community
College, SCORE in West Palm Beach, or SCORE in Boca Raton. The Chamber of
Commerce holds events at a cost. Some of the events were free to Chamber members,
but they were not comprehensive enough for individuals wanting to start a small
business or write a business plan.
Staff wanted something comprehensive with a deliverable at the end, that would provide
information about taxes, incorporation, different employment laws, lending practices,

RE: Boynton Beach Community Redevelopment Agency ("CRA") Land Swap in
Heart of Boynton
In reference to the proposed land swap transaction by and between the City of Boynton Beach (the
"City") and the CRA, involving the east side and west side of Sea crest in the Heart of Boynton area,
two questions were submitted to the CRA General Counsel's office, as follows:
1. Are appraisals reQuired for intergovemmentalland exchange?
No. An appraisal is not required for the land swap between the City and the CRA.
Section 166.045, Fla. Stat., requires a municipality that seeks to acquire real property by
purchase to obtain at least one appraisal for each purchase of not more than $500,000.00 and
two appraisals if the purchase is in excess of $500,000.00, in order to be exempt from the
provisionS of Section 119.07(1), Fla Stat. (public records). However, section 166.045 (3),
provides that a municipality may follow any procedure, not in conflict with the provisions of
Chapter 119 for the purchase of real property.
The Code of Ordinances of the City of Boynton Beach in section 2-56.1 (a) provides that the
purchase or sale of real property by the City from or to another governmental agency is
exempt from the competitive bidding requirements such as obtaining an appraisal and other
procedures established in section 2-56(c). Accordingly, the City is not required to obtain an
appraisal for the real property to be received from the CRA in the land swap transaction.
Relative to the CRA, section 163.370(2), Florida Statutes, gives the City and the CRA the
necessary powers to carry out the purposes of the community redevelopment plan, including
acquisition by purchase, gift, grant, bequest, devise, or other voluntary method of acquisition
of real property in the community redevelopment area. There is no appraisal requirement for
the acquisition of real property, as a result of the land swap between the CRA and the City.
However, section 163.380(2), Florida Statutes, requires that the real property be sold or
otherwise transferred, or retained by its fair value. This section further provides the elements
to take into account to establish the fair value of the property: .
[...] In detennining the value of real property as being in the public interest for uses in
accordance with the community redevelopment plan, the county, municipality, or community
redevelopment agency shall take into account and give consideration to the long-term benefits to
be achieved by the county, municipality, or community redevelopment agency resulting from
incurring short-term losses or costs in the disposal of such real property; the uses provided in such
plan; the restrictions upon, and the covenants, conditions, and obligations assumed by, the
purchaser or lessee or by the county, municipality, or community redevelopment agency retaining
the property; and the objectives of such plan for the prevention of the recurrence of slum or
blighted areas.
2. Is a public notice of intent to dispose real property required for intergovemmenta1land
exchange?
Yes. The CRA and the City are required to provide a thirty (30) day notice of the disposal of
real property in a community redevelopment area.
Section 163.380(3)(a), Florida Statutes, mandates that prior to the disposition of any real
property in a community redevelopment area, any municipality or community
redevelopment agency shall give public notice of such disposition by publication in a
newspaper, having a general circulation in the community, at least thirty (30) days prior to
the execution of any contract to sell, lease or otherwise transfer real property. Accordingly,
both the CRA and the City must publish a public notice of their intent to dispose of real
property located in the community redevelopment area as soon as possible.
Should you have any questions regarding this matter, please do not hesitate to contact us.

SUBJECT: Consideration of Options for CRA Office
SUMMARY: The CRA currently leases its offices at 915 S. Federal. The monthly rent is $3,300. The
square footage is 2,062. At the time the Agency leased the premises there was no other offices space available
within the CRA district with enough square footage. The CRA began leasing at this location in 2006. The lease
is up in May 2010. The owner has the property listed for $599,000 and has shown it several times.
The Board purchased 211 E. Ocean A venue in 2007 with the intent of converting it to the CRA offices. At that
time, the Board felt it was important for the CRA to be the catalyst to the Ocean Avenue redevelopment.
Additionally, the structure is on the City's Historic Inventory list. The building has been vacant since 2006.
The CRA has plans for the redevelopment ofthe site from a single-family home into an office building. The
fa9ade would be returned to its original look by adding a porch. There would be an addition of 1,723 sq. ft.
creating a 3,199 sq. ft. building. Additionally, the new building would house a small art gallery open during
regular CRA hours and accessible to the public from the Ocean Avenue entrance.
The as-built appraisal of the redevelopment proposal is $1,120,000. The cost of the construction is $850,000.
Staffhas obtained two separate cost estimates and they are within $50,000. The permanent mortgage payment
would be approximately $5,700.
Other options include staying in the current location or leasing larger space in another location within the CRA
district. The options and costs are outlined in the attached spreadsheet for the Board's consideration.
If the Board opts not to redevelop 211 East Ocean, a decision should be made to sell, lease or convert it to some
other public use.
FISCAL IMP ACT: See attached spreadsheet. The fiscal impact is dependent on the option the
Board chooses.
CRA PLAN, PROGRAM OR PROJECT: The Ocean District Community Redevelopment
Plan
RECOMMENDATIONS/OPTIONS: Direct staff to implement the redevelopment of211 East
Ocean for CRA offices.

Subject: 3,OOOsf at Flamingo Plaza
Vivian,
I received your voice mail last week, but did not get an email so I'm trying to reach out directly. I am also cc'ing Theresa
just in case my deductive skills fail me with your email address.
The open space in Flamingo is 3,OOOsf, mostly open, but with some office separation and a restroom in the back of the
unit. It was previously used as a mattress outlet. At this point, it has been completely cleaned (carpet, tile, walls,
bathroom, etc.) and has been repainted.
I can provide a lease if needed, but simply put, the financial details for the space are as follows:
5 yr lease
$3,600/mo NNN
3% annual increase
We would reimburse up to $20,000 for tenant fit-up
If you would like to take a look at the space before I return, please advise and I will arrange with the contractor to meet
you. Otherwise, if you have questions, please email me and I will get back to you asap. Also, Theresa has the artist's
rendition of the new look if you want to see it. We're very excited about the improvements!
r
Best,
Rita Ayers

Mr. Michael Simon
February 26, 2009
Once the new zoning and future land use are in place the property owner could request a
zoning change to MX Mixed Use. The subject would more likely be developed in accordance
with the Ocean District Community Redevelopment plan which slates the subject and the
surrounding neighborhood for development with Mixed Use Low which would allow a
maximum 45 foot building height and a maximum of 20 dwelling units per acre.
The purpose of this appraisal is to report our opinion of the market value of the fee simple
estate, as of February 20, 2009, as if all additions and renovations were complete.
As of the effective date of the appraisal, our estimate of the market value of the fee simple
interest is:
ONE MILLION ONE HUNDRED lWENlY THOUSAND DOLLARS
$1,120,000
The following presents an appraisal in a summary report format and our analysis of the data,
along with other materials on which the estimate of value was predicated. This letter must
remain attached to the report, which contains 71 pages plus related exhibits, in order for the
value opinion set forth to be considered valid. Your attention is directed to the Assumptions
and Limiting Conditions contained within this report.

Mr. Michael Simon
Development Manager
Boynton Beach CRA
915 South Federal Highway
Boynton Beach, Florida 33435
Dear Mr. Simon:
At your request, we have prepared an appraisal of 211 East Ocean Avenue, Boynton Beach The property is
currently improved with a two story, single family building. It is proposed that a portion of the existing
structure be renovated, an addition constructed and the building be converted to office use. The proposed
structure would have 3,199 square feet of enclosed space and 335 square feet of covered porches situated on
a 13,936 square foot site (0.32 acres). In completing this assignment we have utilized a hypothetical
condition that the renovation of the existing structure and the proposed addition are complete and the
zoning and future land use plan reflect a zoning of MX (Mixed Use) and a future land use of MU-Ll
(Mixed Use Low 1).
The existing improvements appear to be functional and reasonably well maintained. However, the
neighborhood is in a period of redevelopment and the existing improvements are approaching the end of
their economic life. The subject site at 13,936 square feet or 0.32 acres is somewhat small for independent
redevelopment. Due to the site size, it will likely be necessary to assemble the subject parcel with one or
more of the adjacent properties in order to develop the site to its maximum obtainable density. It would also
be feasible to retrofit the building for an office or retail use.
The subject property is located within a district of Boynton Beach which is currently zoned R-3 Multiple
Family with a future land use of LRC Local Retail Commercial. The subject is located in the Ocean
District Community Redevelopment area. According to Eric Johnson at the City of Boynton Beach
Planning Department, the area is in the process of having the zoning changed to MX Mixed Use and future
land use changed to MU-Ll Mixed Use Low 1, allowing up to 20 dwelling units per acre and a height up 45
feet. Based on our review of the Long Range Land Use plan and conversations with Eric Johnson at the
City of Boynton Beach Planning Department it is our opinion that the current future land use plan
designation for the subject is in error. The current zoning and future land use are in conflict and would not
allow retail or commercial development of the subject site.

SUBJECT: CRA's Boynton Harbor Marina Slip Reconstruction Project Progress Update
SUMMARY: At their meeting held on March 10,2009, the CRA Board approved issuing a Request
for Proposal (RFP) in order to solicit contractors and cost proposals for the Boynton Harbor Marina Slip
Reconstruction project. As a result of the RFP, the CRA Board approved Shoreline Foundation, Inc. as
the marina contractor for the project at a construction contract price of $702,372.00. Funding for the slip
reconstruction project came from a 2 million dollar Waterway Preservation Grant from Palm Beach
County. As of March 1, 2010, the CRA has expended $227,639.62 on the project.
The marina slip reconstruction project consists of demolition of the existing 24 slip dock structures and
utilities, maintenance dredging and the installation of a new aluminum fixed frame dock system
providing 19 new slips, lpe hardwood decking, concrete & wooden piles and utility pedestals and
service. The project by itself is fairly simple but because the marina is currently occupied by eleven
working commercial vessels and the site is bordered by two working marinas, the Two Georges and the
Sea Mist, as well as two successful restaurants, the barge mounted construction becomes more of an art
than a science. Shoreline Foundation, lnc.'s senior project manager, field supervisors, construction and
barge crews have been outstanding at overcoming the obstacles presented to them during this project.
Additionally, the experience of Brian Smith, president of Way point Marine, Inc., the CRA's dock master
and his crew has been invaluable to this project as they work with our slip tenants and the neighboring
property owners to ensure that all of the businesses stay in full operation during the term ofthis project.
As of March 8, 2010, the first phase of the project is complete and the second phase of dock construction
is well underway. Despite numerous construction interruptions to allow neighboring and tenant
businesses to operate within the narrow marina, we anticipate the project's substantial completion date
to be on schedule.

XIII. Comments by Executive Director
Ms. Bright announced that due to the election, the CRA Board meeting for March would
be held on Monday, March 15,2010.
Ms. Bright also announced there was an editorial in the Sun-Sentinel that reported on
the Boynton Beach CRA working to create affordable housing. In the article, Ms. Bright
affirmed the CRA's dedication to providing affordable housing in Boynton Beach.
Currently the median housing price in Palm Beach County is $238,000 and the median
household income is $46,209 with the price range for affordable housing of $145,674.
There is still a need for affordable housing, the core business of the CRA. The Palm
Beach Post also had a story on the same topic that affordable housing was still not
available. There are no houses in the $150,000 to $200,000 range.
Ms. Bright commended Ms. Brooks for contacting Auburn Development who agreed to
partner with the CRA on a multi-family project on the east side of Seacrest. Ms. Brooks
further explained the Florida Housing Financial Corporation issues tax credits and multi-
family bonds to finance affordable housing. There is a small application due February
23, 2010 allocating up to $5 million. The target is a four-acre parcel on the east side of
Seacrest. She was also meeting with the Palm Beach County Housing Authority for an
allocation to put the subsidy layers together. There would be 4% tax credits with the
sale of a multi-family bond. The Agency is moving forward and looking for various ways
to get the project done. Less money is becoming available each year and the cap was
being removed from the SHIP funds. Funding opportunities are still being sought. If

Hi Kathy, Thank you so much for taking the time to talk to me today. Myself and 11 Leadership Palm Beach class members have
taken on Commit 2B fit as our class project. We all feel that Commit 2B Fit's objective of battling obesity is critical in today's
environment. We are committed to help build the Commit 2B fit nonprofit organization by using business processes and
leadership skills.
We decided to build our model around Boynton Beach. The city is excited about this organization and has signed a proclamation
in November. Commit 2B fit is already training the cities after-school staff and 60 of their employees. Currently they have over
40 palm beach schools using the Commit 2B Fit agenda. Now that we have signed the city, 2 Boynton Beach schools, and 3
business partners (Bethesda, FPL and Macaroni Grill), we need a platform to touch the community.
I have spoken to Carisse Lejeune at the city regarding Earth Day. However, they have no budget for an event. She suggested I
talk to you about one of your planned events, such as movie night or concert night. We would be thrilled to be given the
opportunity to allow the community to learn about Commit 2B Fit. We would like to have the event before the summer.
Commit2B fit can give a brief overview of their program and hand out literature. We hope to have a representative from the
sponsor businesses and even the mayor.
Here is their website and the news release. httP:L1www.bo.{ntol1:l::l~ach_.m:gfne.wsdetaiI90.htmJ ;

FY 09/10 Boynton Beach eRA Budget Workshop
ProjectlProgram Options
211 E. Ocean Avenue
The CRA has owned 211 E. Ocean Avenue since February 2007. The purpose of the purchase
was threefold; to activate Ocean Avenue between Seacrest and Federal, to create an office for
the CRA and to preserve one of the oldest structures in the City. The change in Board
leadership and direction has put this project in limbo for the last two years.
Activating Ocean Avenue is a primary goal of the Downtown Master Plan. Therefore, the
Board may want to consider the following options for using 211 E. Ocean for that purpose:
1. Land bank the propelty for some future use.
2. Renovate for use as CRA offices as originally planned. Estimated cost is
$903,527. Options to finance are:
a. Full amount with a montWy payment of approximately $5,3959
b. Finance $600,000 to get a payment that is close to the coo'ent rent payment
of $3,300,
3. Lease out as a residential propelty. The estimated monthly net rent would be
approximately $1,200 per month or $14,400 alUlUally after taxes and insurance.
4. Create a public sculpture garden (See attached examples). The concept of a
public sculpture gardens is consistent with the City's Public Art program and
the Downtown Master Plan (See attached pages from the DMP). A sculpture
garden would complement the other cultural uses on Ocean Avenue such as the
Schoolhouse Children's Museum and the library creating a node of activity.
The Public Nis Program could also be run out of the building,
If the unused City easements are abandoned (as originally proposed), the total
amount of land is .40 acres. Approximately 30 pads can be installed throughout
the grounds to display art pieces.
Additionally, once the grounds are improved the propelty could be leased for
weddings, parties, etc. to create additional revenue for the Agency.
If the Board is interested in pursuing this concept, Staff can develop a more
detailed budget to implement the public sculpture gardens.

"It's a labor of love," said Juanita Purner, who
helped guide the project as Manhattan's cultural

arts manager. "When you finally get to the
completion, it's nice to be able to be a part of
that process."
The sculptures, mostly about 12 feet tall and
scattered downtown near City Hall, are the first
installations in what city leaders hope will be an
ongoing project with new pieces

rotated annually.
Perched atop poles rooted in large cement
planters. many of the whimsical designs -
ranging from fish to birds to a sea horse - reflect
the city's beach culture.
Crews used cranes and some good old-
fashioned mallets and hammers Monday to
install the pieces, including Amos Robinson's "My
Bike II" in Metlox Plaza, on 13th Street between
Valley and Morningside drives.

Manhattan Beach installs public sculpture garden - The Daily Breeze
"It shows off a lot of reflection, and it should
just dance there on the plaza," the San 01e90-
based artist said. "( think it's going to be
fantastic."
Once his plece was in place, Robinson climbed
down from a ladder and stepped back to admire
the sculpture.
"Oh, wow," he said, giggling and gazing up at
the sculpture. "It always looks different."
Already, passers-by were admiring the
sculptures Monday, said Candy Duncan, a
member of the city commission that oversaw the
project.
"So far, people have said it's cool," she said.
"They liked it a lot. We put the bicycle up here
because we knew the children would just love to
watch it while playing in the plaza,"
Work began on the sculpture garden about
seven years ago, but was sidetracked by several
other pressing public art projects,
including the 9-11 memorial located near the
corner of 15th and Valley Drive.

The City Council in April selected the pieces for
the garden's first installment, whose $50,000
price tag was covered by money coming from a
dedicated public art trust into which developers
pay 1 percent of the value of new buildings that
meet certain size and value criteria.
An official dedication ceremony is set for 5 p.m.
