MINUTES Regular City Council Meeting Minutes of January 15, 1985 Vice Mayor Ferrell made a motion to approve the minutes, seconded by Councilman Wright. Motion carried 5-0. CITY MANAGER'S REPORT Completion of Landscapin9 in relation to C/O Issuance Mr. Cheney referred to the recent cold weather conditions causing leaves and branches to fall all over the ground and told about the problems developers and builders are encoun- tering with completing the landscape portion of their plans. He advised we have a temporary process now to allow - 1 - REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA FEBRUARY 5, 1985 buildings to be occupied without landscaping as long as they provide a bond or some kind of agreement agreeing the site plan will be completed within a few months as soon as trees can be transplanted again. It seems that is a reasonable way to proceed under the circumstances. Councilman Cassandra asked when this temporary measure would expire and Mr. Cheney replied that we don't know how long it will be before planters will have stock which can be transplanted. Councilman Cassandra asked what happens if there is not enough money in the bond and Mr. Cheney infOrmed him we are requiring the developer to submit a copy of his contract with the nurseryman guaranteeing the prices of material. Alarm System at Water Plant Mr. Cheney referred to having a chlorine leak at the water plant four to five years ago and told about changes made in the process of handling chlorine. He reported about two weeks ago, we had a chlorine tank with a bad nozzle which came off and the alarm system did work, plus emergency equipment was available in a room nearby. He told about the men being trained now to handle such a situation. He com- mented that sometimes we spend money to resolve problems and now, we know this was worthwhile. Purchase of Liquid Chlorine Mr. Cheney referred to the joint bid for liquid chlorine being listed on the Consent Agenda and stated this is another example where we have joined with other cities in the south county area to save money. In this particular case, we will be saving about $1,100 for the rest of this budget year on this joint bid. We are trying to do more and more of this. Purchase of Rice Lime Mr. Cheney referred to this also being listed on the Consent Agenda and told about the recent approval for modification of the lime room in the water plant to change the kind of lime we are using from pebble to rice. He advised with that and changing the kind of lime, we may save up to $12,000 for the remainder of this year. In September, we will be bidding rice lime with other cities and anticipate savings with the joint bidding. - 2 - REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA FEBRUARY 5, 1985 G.A.L.A. Mr. Cheney announced the next special event the city is having is G.A.L.A. which will be held the first weekend in March. PUBLIC AUDIENCE Industrial Occupancy of Building Mr. Lazarus Salamon, 2620 N.E. 1st Court, Apartment 9201, told about renting one of his commercial bays on Railroad Avenue to a man in the printing business. He told about a certificate of occupancy being held up because Mr. Annunziato said the ink would result in contamination, but the Fire Department apprOved. Mr. Annunziato confronted him with other issues and then he was told there was not enough parking. The building next door was given approval with less parking. He stressed that he does have adequate parking for his tenants and explained. Councilman Warnke interrupted with stating this seems to be a staff problem and asked if he was looking for a variance and Mr. Salamon replied that he doesn't want to go through this harassment every time he rents a bay. He wants to know if this is a personal vendetta or a policy of the city. Mr. Cheney stated Mr. Salamon was kind enough, at his request, to put his concerns in writing. He gave a copy of this letter together with Mr. Annunziato's response to the Council. He suggests that possibly Mr. Salamon should meet with him next week and respond to Mr. Annunziato's letter. He stressed that the city codes are being followed. Sidewalk Condition on Woolbright Road at S.W. 18th St. Mr. Leo Feinstein, 1390 S.W. 17th Avenue, expressed his appreciation and thanks for the sidewalk condition being taken care of at Woolbright Road and S.W. 18th Street in response to his request less than two weeks ago. Contractor Scams Mr. Leo Feinstein also expressed appreciation for Rocky Asphalt Company being stopped from perpetrating scams on Leisureville residents. Mr. Cheney warned everyone not to let anybody do anything until seeing their city occupational license. - 3 - REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA FEBRUARY 5, 1985 Community Development Meeting Mrs. Wilda Searcy, 402 N.E. 13th Avenue, congratulated the Council members for getting Community Development here last week. She then asked everyone to write their senators, congressmen and everybody asking them not to cut the budget for Boynton Beach in housing and community development and to get a lunch and work program for the summer for Boynton Beach. Also, when the Council members go to Tallahassee this week, they should get a lobbyist for Boynton Beach, so we can get funds that we need for Boynton Beach. This is the richest county in Florida, but it does not look like it in her community. Boynton Mobile Park Operations Ms. Helen Schwartzenberg, representing the Federation of Mobile Homeowners, stated there has been a specific problem at Boynton Mobile Park. She told about telling Mr. Cheney about a commercial situation going on, but was advised it was grandfathered in by a previous owner. However, there have been two owners since 1980. This is residential zoning for a mobile home park with private streets and the owner is operating a commerciaI parking buSiness. She told about trucks, boats, and recreational vehicles parking there and paying a monthly fee to the owner. She wouldilike to know what this property is actually zoned for. Councilman Warnke asked what the Code Enforcement Department said and Ms. Schwartzenberg stated their response was the owner was licensed and it was grandfathered in by the pre- vious owner. She told about the business the previous owner had and explained how the situation had ~hanged and should not be granted with a mobile home license. She would like more information and an investigation made. Councilman Cassandra suggested it would be appropriate to ask the City Manager to give the City Council a report on the concerns ra'[sed as he was not aware of this until now. Mr. Cheney stated that mobile home parks are not authorized in any zone in the city. They are all non-conforming uses. If these are private streets, we have limited control. We do not have any indication there was not commercial storage of non-mobile home vehicles on this land prior to this issue. We are pretty sure non-lived-in mobile homes were stored here in the past. Whether it was limited to only recreational vehicles and boats owned by people in the park, we do not have any proof. If someone could prove there has been an extension of that kind of storage, we may have something to go on. We are not able to just freely go in - 4 - REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA FEBRUARY 5, 1985 and take property rights away from an owner without proof that he has gone beyond the law. Mayor Zimmerman asked if the property changes hands, does the grandfathering situation cease and Mr. Cheney replied negatively, not as long as it was within six months and for the same use. As far as we can see, this has been mobile homes and storage. Ms. Schwartzenberg stated the residents can verify it has changed and Mr. Cheney replied that up until this moment, we have not seen proof of change in the nature of storage. Mayor Zimmerman asked if this proof could be supplied now and Ms. Schwartzenberg replied that she has pictures taken in 1979-80 when the residents parked vehicles there, but now residents are coming from all over the area to park their vehicles. Councilman Cassandra requested these pictures to be submitted and a report to be given by the next meeting. Ms. Schwartzenberg stated she would meet with Mr. Cheney next week with the pictures, plus a group of residents are willing to testify. Further discussion ensued regarding the actual businesses in operation at this location over the years. Ms. Dori Bonnemeade, representing the owner, Mr. Corrigan, stated there has been storage on this property since 1972-73 and she has the records to verify that. Flooding Problem on N.E. 10th Avenue Mr. H. B. Barcalow told about many lots being under water in the area of 10th Avenue by the Intracoastal Waterway and thanked Councilman Cassandra for what has been done. Development Along Canal in Mariner Village Area Mr. Barcalow told about being concerned about the mangroves on the canal on the north side of Mariner Village as he has heard a permit may be issued soon to a developer. Councilman Warnke advised the D.E.R. should be contacted when anyone disturbs mangroves. Mr. Barcalow clarified that he was speaking about a proposal to put slips in on the north side. He agrees the land should be used, but the mangroves should be left alone. Mr. Cheney stated there was a site plan for Mariner Way about two years ago and he suspects it will come before the Council again within the next few months. - 5 - REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA FEBRUARY 5, 1985 Location of F.O.P. Shooting Range Mr. Morton Goldstein, 130 N.E. 26th Avenue, told about hearing rumors of the F.O.P. area at 22nd Avenue and High Ridge Road being traded for another piece of property. He would like to go on record that he is absolutely opposed to either a trade or sale of that piece of property. In the north section of this city, there is no other piece of land which could be used for a park, recreation facility, etc. Whether the F.O.P. stays there or not, they only use 1.3 acres of land, which leaves 12 to 13 acres of land which the city could use in the future. Prior to any decision by the City Council, he would like to see this put to referendum of the people whether to sell or trade or keep this for the use of the residents. Vice Mayor Ferrell stated there is some discussion taking plaCe. It is a matter of swapping for like or a larger piece of land. As far as a referendum, he would oppose that as we were elected to make those decisions. Councilman Warnke added that land is used by the city for recreational purposes with the approval of the county. If we ever revert that land to anything else, it reverts back with the county. It is inevitable that land will be over- run by the interchange. He agrees the police need a shooting range. He thinks it might be premature to guess what is coming in the future as we do not have any plans. Mr. Goldstein questioned the interchange taking 15 acres of land and Mr. Cheney replied there has been public discussion about a land swap. He explained how the location of a pistol range was not ideal at an 1-95 interchange. It has been discussed with Riteco that maybe it made sense to give that land to them and they would give us some of their 550 acres. The assumption is we would get more land because of it not being as valuable as at an interchange. Also, we cannot make a swap unless the county agrees. Mr. Goldstein asked if the land would be in the same area and Mr. Cheney replied affirmatively. Councilman Cassandra clarified that nothing can be done without Council approval. Housing Authority Office Mrs. Lottie Pierce, 203 N.E. llth Avenue, stated in October, the Housing Authority was given an office on N.W. 12th Avenue. They were given a key and house, but nothing else. They do not have a desk, chairs, telephone, sign or nothing. - 6 - REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA FEBRUARY 5, 1985 Last Monday night, the Chairman of the Housing Authority decided to dissolve the Housing Authority because they can- not do anything. If the office was furnished, she explained how they could work and help people. Councilman Wright suggested writing to Mr. Barry Seaman and giving support for this office. If our members are willing to sit there and help the residents of our community, he thinks the county can furnish the office and supply a telephone. Councilman Wright moved to write to Mr. Barry Seaman and ask him to furnish furniture and supply a telephone for use by the Boynton Beach Housing Authority, seconded by Councilman Warnke. Under discussion, Councilman Cassandra referred to a 2-2 vote being taken at the last meeting of the Housing Authority to abolish it and stated he gathered from Mrs. Pierce's presentation, she does not want it abolished. Mrs. Pierce agreed. Motion carried 5-0. Mr. Cheney added the building they are using is owned by the County Housing Authority which Mr. Seaman has made available to the Boynton Beach Housing Authority. He will write to Mr. Seaman as requested. Disturbances on N.E. 10th Avenue Mrs. Lottie Pierce continued that she would like to know what'can be done about all the shooting on 10th Avenue every night. She would like some peace and believes the City Council and police have forgotten 10th Avenue. Mrs. Pierce added that garbage is being piled in huge piles. She stressed that containers should be required and garbage not just thrown out. Mr. Cheney informed the Council that a report would be pro- vided within two weeks regarding the shooting. Mr. Cheney stated in reference to garbage piles, people must decide to put garbage in the proper place and not on the ground. Property owners are responsible and should have containers. We try to enforce that, but it is a continual problem all over the city. Request for Approval for Church Carnival Mr. Eroyn Girtman stated he is here to ask the Council to consider a carnival they wish to have on the property of St. Paul's A.M.E. Church. They have complied with all require- ments. It was approved by the Police Department. He requests the Council to consider approval tonight. - 7 - REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA FEBRUARY 5, 1985 Chief Hillery advised they have conducted a study and the only problem would be parking. There is no problem with the actual location of the carnival. They are looking at possible alternatives to solve the parking. Mr. Cheney stated that he assumes if the staff and Police Department are satisfied, the Council would approve it. Mr. Girtman replied that they need this approval by February 20. Mr. Cheney referred to the concern about parking and Mr. Girtman replied that he will check into using parking at the youth center and there is parking on 9th Avenue at the public works complex. Councilman Wright suggested that he speak to Rev. Lee about utilizing parking facilities at St. John's. Vice Mayor Ferr~ll made a motion to approve based on the staff approving the parking and all other requirements. Councilman Wright seconded. Under discussion, Mr. Cheney clarified that they are aware of the parking problem and he suspects it can be worked out. Chief Hillery added if the church can come up with a viable parking solution, we would be glad to go along with it. Mr. Girtman asked if the city would give approval for parking by the public works complex and Mr. Cheney replied affirmatively, as long as it is out- side the fence. Motion carried 5-0. Development Along Canal in Mariner Village Area Mr. Jeffrey Scott King, resident of Mariner Village stated he is unhappy about the situation across the canal. It seems an applicant wants to construct a 32 slip marina with a seawall. This is a residential area and this looks like it will be a semi-commercial operation. He told about the wildlife and vegetation in the area. Councilman Warnke replied that he thinks Mr. King is coming to the wrong place at this point. He should go to the Corps of Engineers and Department of Environmental Regulation, as we have no jurisdiction over this until they approve it. Mr. Cheney added that he thinks the same kind of development is being planned as Mariner Village. It will be coming to the City Council for site plan approval. It also must go to the Corps of Engineers and D.E.R. He suspects they will not go ahead with the residential develoPment unless getting approval for the waterway area. Mr. King further stated he did not want to see this area abused, but kept in the natural state, the same as Mariner Village. - 8 - REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING' BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA FEBRUARY 5, 1985 CONSENT AGENDA A.

He also concurs with the proposal to use Edwards Electric as the company to replace these circuit breakers since they have been the city's contractor for major electrical problems and improvements for sometime.

He explained the portions of the rights-of-way covered and stated with being located in the city, it will give us more control. Vice Mayor Ferrell made a motion to adopt this ordinance on first reading, seconded by Councilman Cassandra. Under - 15 - REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA FEBRUARY 5, 1985 discussion, Mayor Zimmerman referred to having to improve the roadway at our expense now when the post office is constructed and Mr. Cheney replied that anybody improves the road to their property and Mr. Vance added because it is within the city, it will not affect the requirement for the post office to improve it. Councilman Warnke questioned the portion of West Boynton Beach Boulevard being annexed and Mr. Cheney informed him this goes out to Plaza West. Councilman Warnke referred to that being ~ state road and Mr. Cheney replied that state and county roads are within the city. Councilman Cassandra referred to the post office not taking over the right-of-way for their use and Mr. ~ Cheney clarified that they do not want the right-of-way, but our position will be we control access to that road and it must be built to our requirements or they cannot use it. Mayor Zimmerman referred to the county having authority to get the post office to improve that right-of-way and Mr. Cheney informed him that the county does not care'about that road.

Under discussion, Councilman Cassandra expressed concern about the landscaping problem at this center and asked if we could imply to square away the problem. Mr. Cheney stated that certificates of occupancy have been given for the first two shells and each building shell has to get its own c/o. They did a lot of landscaping work before the freeze. We do have control over them.~ This particular approval addresses refinancing of the whole project. Mr. Vance added that he will also validate this issue in circuit court. Mr. Cheney clarified that the city, in no way, is not pledging anything to these industrial revenue bonds; we get income from them. Councilman Warnke referred to the last legislature limiting the amount of industrial revenue bonds throughout the state on an allocation basis and asked if this would use up our allocation and Mr. Cheney informed him these are exempt because these were started last June. Motion carried 5-0. Other Ratification of Police Union Contract Mr. Cheney reported that the Police Union met in January and ratified the union contract with the understanding the wage adjustment for the current year would be effective Thursday, December 27, 1984. This calls for a 4% cost of living adjustment as of December and 2% as of June. These adjust- ments are similar to the ones granted to the Fire Department and regular city employees, but just a couple months later. He told about some minor improvements made. He recommends voting to ratify this contract. Councilman Cassandra moved to ratify this contract as recom- mended in the memo dated February 5, 1985, from City Manager Cheney. Vice Mayor Ferrell seconded the motion. No discussion. Motion carried 5-0. OLD BUSINESS Response to Previous City Council Reguests for Information Occupational License Requirements for Contractors Mr. Cheney stated at the last meeting, it was requested that the contractors present their concerns in writing, but they did not. He did talk to a couple on the phone. He stated a report was submitted indicating what other cities are doing and identifying the different licenses. He feels there is a lack of understanding what they are paying for. - 18 - REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA FEBRUARY 5, 1985 Councilman Cassandra requested that a copy of this report be mailed to Mr. Bob Johnson, so he can see there was an effort of research done. Councilman Wright added that he would also like Mr. Bob Morrow to get a copy. Councilman Warnke added that it should be available for anyone desiring a copy. Mr. Cheney replied that he will put copies in the license office and send to those who spoke at the meeting. Councilman Wright moved to accept the report, seconded by Councilman Cassandra. No discussion. Motion carried 5-0. City Support of Day Care Reconstruction Mr. Cheney referred to a lot of progress being made in a meeting held with a number of representatives of the Boynton Beach Child Care Center Board of Directors and stated a couple things came out of this meeting. One was the feeling that possibly the city could assist in funding improvements in the existing day care facility similar to what was pro- posed for improvements to the Rainbow Grocery building. The Day Care Center has not raised a significant amount of money so far. It was agreed that he and Bud Howell would visit the Gaines Park facility and he told about how impressed they were with this facility. We have met with the contrac- tor selected by the Day Care Center to see if he was willing to work with the city on a redesigned selection. We have met with the architect and discussed his willingness to par- ticipate. It was agreed sometime later this week, some of our city people, the contractor and architect will visit the original facility and view what we have there. He told about plans to expand the present facility if possible. He recommends we go back to where we were when first talking about the day care facility and consider putting $110,000 out of the utility service tax program with $15,000 from the Day Care Center and redesign it and do it right if the existing building allows. He thinks this is the time to do it right and have a good facility. If the Council agrees in general with this concept, he will move in that direction and give a report. Vice Mayor Ferrell made a motion to go ahead with the reports on the progress, seconded by Councilman Wright. Under discussion, Councilman Cassandra added the Day Care Center people should be aware of what we are doing and Mr. Cheney agreed and stated a copy of this report will be sent ko them. They will also be included in the discussions. Motion carried 5-0. Approve Lease Agreement with Boynton Beach Child Care ~enter, Inc. (Tabled) Mayor Zimmerman announced this would be left on the table. - 19 - REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA FEBRUARY 5, 1985 Request for Approval to Proceed with Phase II of Landfill Closure Project Mr. Cheney referred to submitting a report updating the sta- tus of this project and stated the first phase has been accomplished at a lower cost than set aside. There are no unmanageable or unusual problems at the landfill. He propo- ses to go on with Phase II with the funds available and see where we stand. Councilman Cassandra referred to checking surrounding neighbors' wells and Mr. Cheney replied that would be out of the second study, but D.E.R. has said it is not necessary as they can find out what they need to know by examining wells on the site. Councilman Cassandra referred to checking for contamination and Mr. Cheney replied they will do whatever is necessary to meet requirements. Councilman Warnke moved to approve this request to proceed with Phase II of the landfill closure project subject to comments, seconded by Councilman Wright. Under discussion, Mayor Zimmerman read from the report that the implication is clear that during Phase II, the need to identify additional revenues will become necessary, most likely through the sanitation rate structure. Motion carried 5-0. Review of Activity Concerning Implementation of Capital Improvement Program Mr. Cheney told about printing the voters' information booklet and stated interviews at the staff level have been completed through the consultant negotiating process. He ~ould like the Council to set up a time when they could interview the three final architects. He suggested Monday, February 25, or Tuesday, February 26. Councilman Wright replied that Tuesday would be better. Mr. Cheney stated he will check with the three firms and will try for February 26 with interviewing beginning at 7:00 P.M. 4r. Cheney stated there have also been some organizations ~sking if someone could speak to their groups in reference ~o the capital improvement program. He advised the Mayor ~nd Council would be glad to do this. The Art League would like someone on February 9 and only Councilman Cassandra ;ill be here then. The Chamber is having a program on ?ebruary 22. He suggests that the Council be available, so ~he citizens will know what it is all about. He will work - 20 - REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA FEBRUARY 5, 1985 on citizen information meetings. Mr. Charles Frederick added that the booklets will be distributed to all the schools in Boynton Beach. Mr. Cheney added if the bond issues are not passed, our commitment to the Day Care Facility may not be a legitimate commitment. NEW BUSINESS Approval of Entrance Sign at The Meadows Vice Mayor Ferrell made a motion to approve the entrance sign as recommended by the City Manager subject to staff recommendations, seconded by Councilman Warnke. Under discussion, Councilman Cassandra questioned the five year period and Mr. Cheney replied he thinks they should be assured the sign during the development stage of the pro- ject. Councilman Cassandra referred to the possibility of Congress Avenue expanding and needing this area and Mr. Cheney replied this Ks located beyond the six lanes. Motion carried 5-0° ADMINISTRATIVE Accept Charles Mucciolo's, Alternate Member, Resignation from the Community Appearance Board Councilman Wright moved to accept and send a letter of appreciation to Mr. Charles Mucciolo. Vice Mayor Ferrell seconded. No discussion. Motion carried 5-0. Consider Replacement to Fill Above Position - Vice Mayor Robert Ferrell Vice Mayor Ferrell moved to table, seconded by Councilman Wright. Motion carried 5-0. Accept Wilda Searcy's resignation from Boynton Beach Housing Authority Councilman Wright moved to accept and send a letter of thanks, seconded by Vice Mayor Ferrell. No discussion. Motion carried 5-0. Consider Replacement to Fill Above Position - Councilman Sam Wright Councilman Warnke referred to the Housing Authority being in limbo at the present time with deciding whether to continue - 21- REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA FEBRUARY 5, 1985 and Councilman Wright agreed they need to decide on their function as a board. Mayor Zimmerman added he doesn't believe if we gave them the position acting as an indepen- dent authority to build housing that they would be more effective than the County Housing Authority. Also, the funds don't seem to be available. Councilman Wright added there are things possibly they could do, but they must work with the County Housing Authority. He continued that until that can be determined, it might be best to leave it as it is. Councilman Wright moved to move up Michael Staley from alternate to regular position, seconded by Vice Mayor Ferrell. No discussion. Motion carried 5-0. Councilman Warnke moved to table the alternate position, as he does not have an appointment, seconded by Councilman Cassandra. No discussion. Motion carried 5-0. Consider Replacement to Fill Vacancy on Community Relations Board Councilman Cassandra moved to move up Barbara Kruger, since she has attended most of the meetings as an alternate, seconded by Vice Mayor Ferrell. No discussion. Motion carried 5-0. Councilman Cassandra stated at least three talent bank forms have been received from people who want to serve on the Community Relations Board. He thinks it might be advan- tageous to put them on the board and increase the number. Councilman Wright disagreed with stating this may create a problem. Mayor Zimmerman stated he is not prepared to make an appointment. Councilman Warnke moved to table, seconded by Councilman Cassandra. No discussion. Motion carried 5-0. Consider Replacement to Fill Vacancy on Civil Service Board Councilman Cassandra suggested it might be advantageous to table this and make sure to have it filled by the next meeting, because they have a Civil Service Hearing on February 27 and 28 which would require a Chairman. Vice Mayor Ferrell added that they do have alternates. Vice Mayor Ferrell moved to table this selection until the next meeting, seconded by Councilman Wright. No discussion. Motion carried 5-0. - 22 - REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA FEBRUARY 5, 1985 Consider Council Guidelines for the Public - Requested by Councilman James R. Warnke Councilman Wright so moved with the possibility of the staff looking into this. Councilman Warnke requested discussion as he just submitted suggestions. Vice Mayor Ferrell referred to the handbook having an interesting chapter on paring down meetings and suggested possibly with the seating of the new Council, we could come up with new ideas. In reference to responses on information requests from an individual Councilman, he thinks it should just be provided to that individual Councilmember. If it is important, it could be brought up for discussion. He thinks the possibility of starting a half hour early should be given consideration so any member of the Council could get information for clarification. He still thinks the Public Audience period should be at the end of the meeting. This is a generally accepted viewpoint to insure the business is accomplished first before unscheduled business. Councilman Warnke replied that having the Public Audience period at the end puts an undue burden on the public having a valid comment. If they have gone through the complete city staff and it cannot be resolved, it should be brought before the Council. It should not be pushed off on the City Manager every time. Vice Mayor Ferrell responded that the other people on the agenda are the same public and they have regularly scheduled business. He requests that this suggestion be given thought. Councilman Wright commented that he thinks the suggestion of the Council coming earlier for questions of the staff is good. However, he does not like putting the Public Audience to the end. Councilman Warnke moved to put the guidelines submitted as a separate xerox sheet attached to the agenda and/or have it on the agenda sheet to give the public audience guidelines. He added that it can be condensed and the City Manager and his staff can adjust it. Vice Mayor Ferrell seconded. Motion carried 5-0. Vice Mayor Ferrell suggested trying comments on response to information requests during the half hour prior to the meeting. He added the meeting still would be at 7:30 P.M. with a study session before. Vice Mayor Ferrell made a motion that we delete from the agenda the responses to information requests by individual - 23- REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA FEBRUARY 5, 1985 Councilmembers and they should be made to the Councilmember individually. Councilman Wright seconded the motion. Under discussion, Councilman Cassandra stated he doesn't think any Councilmember can say what is important to another Councilmember. It may be something he feels he wants to do publicly. Vice Mayor Ferrell replied in that case, it can be put on the agenda by the Councilmember and he explained how the individual requests could be answered unless requested to be on the agenda for everyone's information. Mr. Cheney advised that most have been in response to issues which have come up under Public Audience and the alternative would be to respond to the citizens directly. Vice Mayor Ferrell clarified that if it is something brought up by the public, then it should be left on. Councilman Wright suggested possibly some could go on the Consent Agenda and dis6uss only if needed. He added that it seems to put a time limit on the staff in responding back to the Council on these matters. Vice Mayor Ferrell clarified that his motion is to delete individual requests by Councilmen and answers not placed as an agenda item. It could be handled by a memo from the staff to the Councilman. Councilman Wright seconded and added when applicable, it should be put under the Consent Agenda for discussion if needed. Motion carried 5-0. Vice Mayor Ferrell stated he would like to bring up again that we have prior to the start of the meeting a session with staff available to give any input. It would be public, but would be a study session. Councilman Warnke replied that this could be done any time during the week. Mr. Vance advised if the City Council desires to have the staff available for an additional half hour, it can be done. It would not be a meeting of the City Council. Mr. Cheney stated his problem with this is to know who to ask to be here at 7:00 P.M. He has thought about scheduling somewhere on a rotating basis a presentation by a department either before a City Council meeting, part of the meeting, or one Council meeting a month to give a summary of what that department is doing at that particular moment. He would hate to have it done at 7:00 if the entire Council was not present. He will work this out in the future. Councilman Warnke asked if this would turn into a platform in working toward the next budget and Mr. Cheney replied negatively as his idea is to point out where we stand. If the Council is going to address next year's budget, they will have some understanding of the activities of the department. - 24- REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA FEBRUARY 5, 1985 Councilman Warnke complimented the City Manager on the monthly reports forwarded to the Council. Councilman Wright suggested starting the next meeting at 7:15 P.M. Councilman Cassandra suggested giving it further thought and coming back with suggestions. Councilman Wright suggested having a trial run. Mayor Zimmerman suggested letting it stand as is and it can be placed on the agenda. Consider Summer Work Program - Requested by Councilman Nick Cassandra Councilman Cassandra referred to the memo dated February 5, 1985, from George Hunt summing it up, but added that he changed the idea from a city trash truck to getting dumpsters at appropriate locations to be picked up with regular pickups. The only thing he needs is if the Council would be acceptable for $10,000 outlay for the program. He is looking to see if it can be worked out. If they come back with a program, is there $10,000 available? Councilman Wright asked if it would be just for children from impoverished homes and Councilman Cassandra replied it would be for anyone approved by the Community Relations Board. CounCilman Wright questioned the number and Councilman Cassandra replied six. Councilman Wright com- mented that he thinks it is a good program. Councilman Warnke asked if youths who have been sentenced to community service work would be included and Councilman Cassandra replied affirmatively and added the original idea was to get Boynton Beach high school students. Councilman Warnke referred to getting into trespassing, insurance, etc. When going onto private property and Councilman Cassandra agreed this has to be investigated. Councilman Wright moved to accept this idea in concept and after definite plans are presented, we will make a final decision. The motion was seconded and carried 5-0. Acceptance of Gift Mr. Cheney stated a gentleman has offered to give us a mobile home. We would propose to accept it and use it as office space wherever there is the greatest need. The only cost would be to tow it here and put it somewhere. Councilman Cassandra asked if it could be a mobile library and Mr. Cheney replied that we do not have the money to staff a mobile library and he suggests using it for existing programs we have now. Councilman Wright questioned who would occupy it and Mr. Cheney replied that he was not sure, but possibly it may be used by the Recreation Department. - 25 - REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA FEBRUARY 5, 1985 Councilman Warnke moved to accept this gift, seconded by Councilman Wright. No discussion. Motion carried 5-0. ADJOURNMENT Councilman Wright moved to adjourn, seconded by Vice Mayor Ferrell. Motion carried 5-0 and the meeting was properly adjourned at 10:35 P. M.
