boardwalks. The roofs on the buildings are also coming

Water Expansion
Mr. Cheney reported that today, we submitted to the South
Florida Water Management District our request for modifica-

for utility funds, he would like to ask the Council to have
a special City Council meeting on Wednesday, May 9, at 5:30

revised special resolution for approval and acceptance of a
negotiable sale of bonds. This is a procedural meeting
which is necessary.
Golf Course
The City Manager referred to questions being asked about the

have a fairly precise schedule of what the last steps are
and quite possibly a date for the scheduled opening. Lots
of things are coming together now.
PUBLIC AUDIENCE

speak on what is on their mind at this time. He added if
anyone wishes to speak on something on the agenda to please
fill out a slip with the City Clerk and they will be called

North Boynton Beach Task Force Report
Mrs. Dee Zibelli, 440 Ocean Parkway, stated she would like
to give the City Council an update of the North Boynton
Beach Task Force since its inception one year ago and what
is planned for the future. She told about the meetings held
by this group once a month and the steps they have taken to
- 3 -
REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA
MAY 1, 1984
pursue the widening of Seacrest Boulevard with the result
being that it will be in the County's 1983/84 budget. She
then told about members being designated with a different
zone in the city and how violations were reported. Also,
she told about their efforts speaking to homeowners
informing them about code violations and getting cooperation
to cleanup the North Boynton Beach area. She stressed that
the members of this Task Force are hard working individuals.
A committee is now in the process of comparing the codes of
neighboring cities regarding trash, abandoned cars, etc., so
suggestions can be offered to improve our codes. At their
last meeting, Commissioner Koehler informed them the design
is in the works and the 22nd Avenue stop light will be let
out for bids. They are now asking the City Council, Chamber
of Commerce and any other organizations to send resolutions
to the Board of County Commissioners to keep the widening of
Seacrest Boulevard alive. On behalf of the Task Force, she
then thanked the City Council, Mrs. Boroni's office, the
Police Department, Mr. Walke's department and especially
Mrs. Moore, who has never missed one of their meetings.
Councilman Wright referred to organizing this group and
stated they have had some exciting meetings. Councilman
Warnke has supported them with asking for the budgeting of
an additional Codes Enforcement Officer. Progress is being
made. He thanked the Council and city staff for their sup-
port. Mr. Cheney advised that we now have two Code
Enforcement Officers to work with Mrs. Moore.
Mayor Zimmerman referred to the mention of another resolu-
tion in regards to continuing construction funding for
Seacrest Boulevard and Councilman Wright replied that he has
added this to the agenda as a separate item.
Compensation for Board Members
Mrs. Henrietta Solomon, 230 N. E. 26th Avenue, stated she
read in the newspaper that Councilman Warnke suggested
paying city board members $10 for every meeting they attend.
She referred to board appointments being political payoffs
and read previous newspaper articles criticizing board
appointments. She stated most people who serve on boards
enjoy the satisfaction of being a volunteer and helping the
city. Political payoffs should not be on the back of tax-
payers. This would amount to thousands of dollars yearly.
She hopes the other councilmen would not be a party to this
payoff.
Councilman Warnke clarified that he was merely putting
suggestions forth for the budget.

P.A.C.T.
Mrs. Eleanor Olinger, Old Ocean Boulevard, Ocean Ridge, stated
she represents a group called P.A.C.T., People Against Crime
Together. She told about the formation of this group in
response to the brutal rape and murder of Karen Slattery in
Delray Beach. She stressed the importance of doing
something about this and how results are obtained based on
the number of people involved. The philosophy of their
group is to have the existing laws enforced to the maximum.
She referred to the United States being a free society, but
explained how we are actually prisoners in our homes. She
quoted the numerical statistics for various crimes. This
group wants to disallow plea bargaining in courts. They
want to take away the country club atmosphere in the prison
system. They want to make the prisoners work about 16 hours
per day and pay back the victims and survivors of victims.
They want to press for swift and expedient justice. The
guilty should serve the complete sentence. Also, they would
like to see people who have been victimized by violent crimes
sit on the parole boards all across the country. They want
to put out notice they are going after the judicial system
of the country and going to make them accountable.
Councilman Cassandra referred to his family being acquainted
with the Slattery family and stated he feels something
should be done by the cities of Palm Beach County in helping
citizens who are afraid to walk the streets. He feels Mrs.
Olinger is trying to get the citizens from Boynton Beach to
raise their voices and let the judicial system know we care.
Councilman Cassandra moved for the City Attorney to prepare
a resolution to the Palm Beach County Judicial System
telling them the Boynton Beach City Council is concerned
about citizens and people around here and is not in favor of
plea bargaining, persons getting shorter sentences, legal
technicalities, etc. The resolution should be aimed towards
the judicial system saying enough is enough and let's start
worrying about the lives of individuals. Councilman Warnke
seconded the motion. Under discussion, Councilman Wright
stated he thinks the motion is timely, but thinks a more
comprehensive study should be made and act on the recommen-
dations from P.A.C.T. He thinks some of these things will
take legislation which should be sent to the governor,
congressmen and representatives as well as Palm Beach
County. Precise recommendations should be submitted by the
next Council meeting. Mr. Vance requested if P.A.C.T. has
their position in writing, they could forward it to the city
and he will be glad to utilize that. Councilman Cassandra

requested this to be forwarded to the City Manager. Motion
carried 5-0.
Closing of Road in Mariner Village Area
Mr. Allan Wilson, 658 Manor Drive, and Mr. R. Kubes, 660
Manor Drive, came before the Council. Mr. Kubes informed
the Council that on Monday, Manor Drive was closed. He pre-
viously contacted Mr. Tom Clark and was assured the proper
procedure had to be followed to close the road. Mariner
Village has taken it upon themselves to deny use of this
road for emergency purposes. He asked the City Engineer's
office yesterday why this fence was being built and it was
determined that no permit was issued. The road was closed
and he could not get in. They did have an illegal permit
because it did not include all the legal information and the
city ordered them to stop building the fence. They con-
tinued building the fence until 9:00 P. M. last night. He
talked to the City Manager this morning and was told the
situation was being looked into. His concern is Manor Drive
is a situation where access to their homes and lives is in
danger because emergency vehicles will have a difficult time
getting to fire hydrants. His concern is to have the fence
taken down since it was not legally put up. The safety of
the residents on Manor Drive should be restored until this
can be settled legally and through the proper channels. He
thinks the safety of the residents should be considered and
this road has been in existence for 30 years.
Mr. Cheney advised that the folks from Mariner Village did
talk to Mr. Clark and were told they would need a revision
to the subdivision plat. They came into the Building
Department and the document they presented for a permit
showed the property line with a fence, but did not indicate
it would close off the street. A permit was issued. By
Friday afternoon, we were aware the permit should not have
been given because of the street. A stop'order was issued.
Sometime on Monday, they began work on the fence, but were
stopped again Monday night. This morning, the work had con-
tinued with pipes put up in the street, which is a public
street and it must be settled. The contractor acknowledged
that Mr. Keehr told him not to put up the fence, but he did
because the property owners wanted it put up. It was made
clear to the contractor that no more work was to be done
until the legality of the situation could be investigated.
Mr. Cheney advised that he discussed the situation with the
attorney from Mariner Village. The street has been used
for 30 years and the plat of Mariner Village would have to
- 6 -
REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA
MAY 1, 1984
be amended. The site plan would be violated because two
accesses were shown and with a fence, there would only be
one. Mr. Doney and Mr. Woolley plan to check it tomorrow
morning. He suggests since Mariner Village's attorney is
the last person he spoke to, that the city should have con-
versations only with Mr. Woolley with regard to Mariner
Village. If the people present from Mariner Village feel
the situation has not been properly presented, he thinks it
is best their attorney present those issues to the Council
in the future. Since their attorney has approached the
city, he thinks it is best to work through him. At the
moment, we understand there is a problem and understand
there may be a legal argument in regards to access.
Councilman Cassandra clarified that at the present moment,
we have a closed road and Mr. Cheney agreed this is correct
and he hesitates until the attorneys have a chance to look
at it to have the contractor take out the pipes or take them
out ourselves.
Mr. Vance stated his office was contacted this afternoon and
they will review the entire matter tomorrow. He concurs
with Mr. Cheney it will probably simplify the matter if
Mariner Village talks to their attorney and has him convey
to us his reference to this matter.
Councilman Wright agreed we should hear from their attorney,
but asked if they are doing this without a permit, could we
have the fence removed and Mr. Vance replied that they have
a permit, but it must be decided whether it is correct.
Councilman Cassandra clarified that this should be resolved
by tomorrow and Mr. Vance agreed a conclusion should be
reached by tomorrow afternoon.
Mrs. Wahl stated she was not familiar that the City
Engineers had checked the job site. Construction of the
fence was begun because they had secured a building permit.
They have spent time, money and effort and secured a permit
following the procedure. The road which is being closed off
is a hazard. It is a one way street and people use it the
wrong way. It is impossible for a fire truck to make that
corner. The reason Mariner Village is fencing that property
is because they have had terrible problems with break-ins
and want some security. They have also had people coming in
and using their pool facilities.

MAY 1, 1984
Mr. Henry Beiderbecke, Mariner Village, added that accom-
panying the request for a building permit was a letter
stating why the road should be closed off for the reasons as
stated by Mrs. Wahl.
Mr. Allan Wilson stressed their concern was losing an access
road. They are just homeowners on a street and now two
attorneys are going to make a determination and how are they
going to know what is happening? Mr. Cheney requested that
they contact his office tomorrow afternoon and he will let
them know where it stands.
Mrs. Gray, 653 Manor Drive, told about rushing home because
her husband was ill today and not being able to get through
because of the closed road. An additional five minutes was
required for her to get home because of going back across
Federal Highway. Mariner Village should have had the common
courtesy to notify the residents the road was going to be
closed.
Mayor Zimmerman summarized that this boils down to a legal
question and he is sure the attorneys will take care of it.

penalty clause letter from Chapman Security for the purpose
of possible central monitoring being done by the city at a
later date.
Councilman Cassandra moved that the Consent Agenda, Items A
through O, be approved, seconded by Vice Mayor Ferrell.
Under discussion, Mr. Warnke questioned a bill for insurance
on a Mako boat and Mr. Cheney explained that we have
acquired this boat through drug activity and until we know
we own it, we want to protect our value in it. The money
comes out of confiscated drug money.
Councilman Cassandra referred to Item A-3 and the concern of
application being important and questioned the affect this
would have on our water. Mr. Cessna informed him there
would be more polyphosphates in the water, but no health
effect.
Mr. Cassandra referred to being in favor of bidding concepts
and stated he is turned off when not going to bid on a lot
of items. He thinks in the future, anything that is being
recommended not to go to bid should not be on the Consent
Agenda. On the tennis courts resurfacing, there was a sti-
pulation, but he doesn't know if Hardrives agreed to that
and Mr. Cheney replied that they have. Mr. Cheney clarified
that the stipulation is included and if approved by the
Council with that stipulation, it must be met.
Mra Cassandra asked if we were paying for the performance
bond for the contractor for the two lift stations under Item
A and Mr. Cheney informed him that project was bid inadver-
tently without including a performance bond in the specifi-
cations. He explained that we will have to pay the premium,
but it is normally included in the bid price. After further
discussion, Mr. Cassandra clarified that we are paying for a
performance bond to guarantee they do a good job. He added
that he is not happy with this, but will accept it.
Mr. Cassandra referred to Resolution No. 84-KK implying that
the City Attorney approves and Mr. Vance agreed.
Councilman Cassandra stated he was bothered we were not
securing bids for the air conditioning units covered by Item
G. This recommendation is based on the present units not
being expected to last more than three° or four weeks and the
bidding process would take longer. Mr. Sullivan advised
that one unit has already broken.

Mr. Cassandra referred to the golf course cart paths needing
additional explanations. The original bid was approved on
April 3, 1984, with the bidder meeting all specifications.
Then, change order #1 was submitted for the additional
amount of $945 and now a second change order to increase it
another $5,000. Mr. Cheney informed him that the $945 was
to cover the performance bond, which we did not include in
the specifications. This change is for additional work
around the clubhouse itself. We took bids, but not for the
concrete around the building. Mr. Cassandra asked if we do
have money in the golf course and Mr. Cheney replied affir-
matively. Motion carried 5-0.

DEVELOPMENT PLANS
Approve Master Plan Modification - Motorola PID
Mr. Annunziato explained that MotOrola is requesting their
master plan be modified to show the location for a tower to
carry five antennae to allow them to conduct field tests of
their products. The height of this proposed antenna would
be 100 feet. If approved, they would have to come back
through site plan approval with a request for a height
exception.
Councilman Cassandra referred to being concerned about the
60 ft. height and questioned why the code has a numerical
number if it must come before the City Council and Mr.
Annunziato explained how this height was determined based on
study of CB antennaes. However, this is different with
being a structure.
Mr. Cassandra referred to this exceeding previous recommen-
dations and stated he thinks this is a major change. Also,
this tower talkS about a frequency range which falls into
the television range, which could cause interference to
other people.
Mr. Bill Kuznicki, Manager of Engineering Services,
Motorola, Inc., explained that the tower will be used for
transmitting from their plant site to persons around Boynton

Beach. Mr. Cassandra asked if it would cause interference
with television reception and Mr. Kuznicki explained that
they will have specific channels to use set aside by the
F.C.C. They do not expect any interference.
Mr. Cassandra referred to this going back to the Planning &
Zoning Board and Mr. Annunziato clarified that if the
Council determines this is a substantial change, it would
require an application for zoning. If it is found to be
non-substantial, then it goes to the Planning & Zoning
Board.
Councilman Warnke moved to determine this is not a substan-
tial change on the development plan of the Motorola PID.
Councilman Wright seconded the motion. Under discussion,
Councilman Cassandra referred to this meaning that the
Council approves the 100 ft. height and Mr. Warnke
disagreed. Mr. Cassandra asked if it could be knocked down.
and Mr. Warnke replied affirmatively. Mayor Zimmerman added
that he is not particularly in favor of 100 feet, but is
interested in having the Technical Review Board and Planning
& Zoning Board review this and submit recommendations.
Mr. Cheney requested Mr. Annunziato to clarify the action to
be taken if this motion is passed and Mr. Annunziato stated
it would go to the Planning & Zoning Board to approve,
approve with modifications or deny. If approved, the appli-
cant would have to come back with detailed site plans to the
Planning & Zoning Board for approval of the site plan modi-
fication and then come back to the City Council.
Motion carried 4-1 with Councilman Cassandra dissenting.
Approve Master Plan Modification - Crossings PUD
Mr. Annunziato informed the Council this is a simple request
for a change in the recreation package. The applicant has
requested this modification to install a heart exercise
system in one area. The bike path has been joined on N.E.
4th Street and looped on N.E. 22nd Avenue. He read the com-
ments noted by the Engineering Department and Parks &
Recreation Department. The Technical Review Board recom-
mends that it is not a substantial change.
Councilman Wright asked if this revision would enhance what
they have submitted previously and Mr. Annunziato commented
that it is just as good or better. Mr. Wright referred to
the homeowners not knowing anything about this and Mr.
Annunziato informed him that a petition was submitted.

Proposed Resolution No. 84-MM - Re: Hand Gun Control
Mr. Vance read proposed Resolution No. 84-MM by title:
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF BOYNTON
BEACH, FLORIDA, URGING THE PALM BEACH COUNTY COMMISSION
TO ENACT AN ORDINANCE TO PROVIDE FOR A 10 DAY "COOLING
OFF" PERIOD IN THE PURCHASES OF HANDGUNS; PROVIDING FOR
AN EFFECTIVE DATE; AND FOR OTHER PURPOSES.
Councilman Warnke commented that many other cities have
passed this resolution and he doesn't see any harm in it.
There is House Bill 64 being considered by the state, but
this puts support behind the county.
Councilman Warnke moved to pass Resolution No. 84-MM and
pass onto the County Commission, seconded by Vice Mayor
Ferrell. Under discussion, Councilman Wright stated he
would like to see a longer cooling off period. Mayor
Zimmerman commented that he feels this is a step in the
right direction. Councilman Cassandra asked the Police
Chief if ten days was enough time to check on someone and
Chief Hamilton responded that he thinks the problem is this
must be statewide and ten d~ay:s~would be sufficient time.
Mr. Cassandra continued that he would like to see a
fingerprint system set up for anyone wanting to buy a gun,
as he dooesn't think this is strong enough. Mayor Zimmerman
clarified that this is proposing ten days to the County
Commission and further action can be taken later. Mr.
Warnke stated this would be up to the state, but until then,
this shows our concern. Motion carried 5-0.
Councilman Cassandra referred again to requiring a
fingerprint check and Mr. Cheney informed him that we can
check a person any way we want. Mr. Vance explained that a
large geographic area must be consistent or a person would
just go across a city line to make the purchase. Mr. Cheney
suggested that the County Commission could be requested to
make it stronger.
Proposed Resolution No. 84-NN - Re: Grant Application for
Aquatic Weed Control Through Department of Natural Resources
Mr. Vance read proposed Resolution No. 84-NN by title:
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF BOYNTON
BEACH, FLORIDA, REGARDING GRANT APPLICATION FOR AQUATIC
WEED CONTROL THROUGH THE DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL
RESOURCES; PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE DATE; AND FOR
OTHER PURPOSES.
Councilman Wright moved the adoption of proposed Resolution
No. 84-NN, seconded by Councilman Warnke. No discussion.
Motion carried 5-0.

REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA
MAY 1, 1984
Councilman Cassandra asked if this area falls under the
impact zoning area where we collect monies from developers
and questioned if that money could be used to pay this spe-
cial assessment? Mr. Cheney replied that he would have to
check to see whether that is limited. He suspects that
money is not for subdivision type streets, but for major
thoroughfares and collector roads.
Mr. Cheney continued that if we are going to protest this,
there is a public hearing. He does not recommend protesting
it, but agrees we should pay the amount assessed. If we can
use the money suggested by Councilman Cassandra, we will or
use the 2~ gas tax or revenue sharing money. He thinks we
should go ahead as a good neighbor and property owner.
Councilman Cassandra moved to accept this special
assessment, seconded by Councilman Wright. No discussion.
Motion carried 5-0.
Consider Approval of Revocable One Year Permit to Use Public
Property - Darrell Hinson
Mr. Cheney referred to submitting a memo and added that we
have done this on a few occasions. This is a one year revo-
cable license giving the property owner the chance to
cleanup, use and improve the land. He knows we can reclaim
it if we want to put a road in. He recommends it be
approved.
Councilman Wright moved to approve, seconded by Councilman
Cassandra. No discussion. Motion carried 5-0.
Extend Wrecker Contract
Councilman Cassandra stated he feels the recommendation of
the Purchasing Agent is a good one when there is no
challenge to extend the contract, but it seems there is a
challenge by someone Wanting to be permitted to bid. Based
on this, he thinks it should go back to the bidding concept.
Since Mr. Drew Zuccala has verbally stated he wishes to bid
on this particular contract, he thinks it should go to the
bidding process.
Mr. Cheney clarified that the recommendation was not made
not to bid, but the question was raised of which way the
Council wanted to go.
Mr. Drew Zuccala, 633 East Industrial Avenue, referred to
being in the wrecker service for seven years and stated he

Consider Request for Exemption from City's Telephone Tax -
Non-profit Organization (Tabled)
Mr. Wright moved to remove this from the table, seconded by
Mr. Cassandra. Motion carried 5-0.
Mr. Vance stated that a memo was submitted by Mr. Doney
dated April 24, 1984, advising there did not appear to be a
legal basis for granting this request for an exemption from
Channel 42 and Stereo 91. Mr. Ferrell made a motion to deny
this request based on the information provided, seconded by
Mr. Warnke. Under discussion, Mr. Wright questioned what
kind of money was involved and Mr. Vance replied that he
thinks it is minimal. Motion carried 5-0.
Consider Request for Exemption from Public Service Tax -
Florida Bar
Mr. Vance referred to a memo dated April 25, 1984, being
submitted and advised they had to arrive at the opposite
conclusion for this request because the Florida Bar has a
case which has determined this is part of the judicial
system, which is one of the three co-equal departments of
state government. Therefore, they are exempt.
Councilman Cassandra made a motion, based upon this legal
recommendation, to accept the City Attorney's recommen-
dation, seconded by Councilman Wright. No discussion.
Motion carried 5-0.
County Imposed Special Assessment for Road Paving Adjacent
to City Owned Land (Nickles Blvd.)
Mr. Cheney informed the Council this involves a piece of
land which the city owns in the county between Old Boynton
Road and Boynton Canal, west of Nickles Boulevard, which we
have owned for sometime. The county is in the process of
paving the roads in that area through a special assessment
project. We have received a notice noting our special
assessment will be $15,535.42. He read an opinion submitted
by the City Attorney that it appears the county may
lawfully specially assess this city owned property and the
city is subject to thisbe'special assessment. This is pro-
perty which has a restriction clause that it will always
remain for public purposes. This may be the only cost we
will have for that land as it came to us at no cost.

expressed interest as he would like to get involved. Mayor
Zimmerman asked if he has suitable equipment and Mr. Zuccala
replied affirmatively. Councilman Cassandra added that the
specifications must be met.
Mr. Cassandra moved to put this through the bidding process,
seconded by Mr. Wright. Under discussion, Mr. Cheney
advised if we are going to rebid, we will review the terms
of the current contract and may change some of the proce-
dures. Motion carried 5-0.
Approve Utility Service Agreement - Sea Ridge Condominium
Mr. Cheney referred to submitting a memo and advised this is
an existing condominium and there is a health problem. The
Health Department asked us to address this. We do serve
them water and sewage is needed. Mr. Cassandra asked if
there would be any cost to the city and Mr. Cheney replied
that the condominium must pay all costs.
Councilman Wright moved to approve, seconded by Councilman
Cassandra. No discussion. Motion carried 5-0.
Request for Resolution (Councilman Wright)
Councilman Wright referred to Mrs. Zibelli giving a report
and stated he would like to request approval of the City
Council to authorize the City Attorney for the next Council
meeting to finalize a resolution requesting the County
Commission to budget funds in their 1984/85 budget to
include funding of the Seacrest Boulevard project. It is
important to make this request now because several of the
County Commissioners will be retiring. We need to move
expeditiously to get their support prior to leaving and this
will be their last budget process.
Mayor Zimmerman commented that it would be helpful to have
the Metropolitan Planning Organization behind us on this
project and Councilman Wright agreed we could send a copy of
the resolution to the M.P.O. if appropriate.
Councilman Wright moved to request such a resolution,
seconded by Councilman Cassandra. Under discussion, Vice
Mayor Ferrell asked if it would be helpful to deliver this
resolution to the County Commission and Mr. Vance replied
affirmatively.~ Mr. Ferrell volunteered to go and Mayor
Zimmerman remarked that he was sure members of the North
Boynton Beach Task Force would accompany him. Motion
carried 5-0.

OLD BUSINESS
Seacrest Boulevard Design Study
Councilman Wright stated when the design study for Seacrest
Boulevard was discussed last year, we were asked by the
county to match funds, $30,000, but the City Council did not
agree. The county did come up with $150,000. The county
was asked to consider a median strip for Seacrest Boulevard,
but in talking with tihe City Manager and county personnel,
it is felt it would be unfeasible to do that. He thinks we
should go on record if they cannot do it, to delete that
request, so they can move full speed ahead.
Mr. Cheney advised they are moving ahead. He has met with
them and they realize it cannot be done. We are still
discussing how to handle the area between the curb, sidewalk
and grass strip, but a median strip will not work as there
is not enough room. He can report this to the staff, so
they know we are not upset with this not being included.
NEW BUSINESS
Report from Committee Requesting N.E. 10th Avenue Be Named
Martin Luther King Blvd.
Councilman Wright told about meeting with a committee and
planning the dedication and advised that discussion of
street renaming ensued about rededicating this street to
Martin Luther King, Jr. He referred to a group of people
being present in support of this and asked the property
owners on 10th Avenue to stand. He also acknowledged the
members of the I0th Avenue Dedication Committee present. A
recommendation came forward to rename only the reconstructed
portion of 10th Avenue in order to do that area which is new
and revitalized. In the future, if we can get some monies
for N. W. 10th Avenue, we can get it extended.
Mro Wright referred to submitting a report and read the
following paragraph from this report:
"Committee members feel the life struggle of Dr. King
correlates with the long coming of 10th Avenue's revita-
lization. Too, much consideration was given to saving
Boynton's youth, realizing this renaming will enable
them to identify with a man who was a "LEGEND" during
his time and died for love, equality, justice, non-
violence and for every man to be afforded the oppor-
tunity to live in decency and dignity. With these
- 21 -
REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA
MAY 1, 1984
thoughts in mind, members feel strongly many residents
will perceive 10th Avenue to be a very different street,
whereby exhibiting more pride for the area and helping
to keep it beautiful."
Mr. Wright stated he thought it was important this item
included the feelings and sentiments of the group why they
want to see the renaming of 10th Avenue to Martin Luther
King, Jr. Boulevard.
Mayor Zimmerman referred to this street having another name
years ago and Councilman Wright replied that it was Central
Street or Wells Avenue.
Mrs. Emily C. Roker stated she has lived in Boynton Beach
since 1936 right on Wells Avenue, which was later changed to
10th Avenue. She would like each and every one in this
building to say they will change it from 10th Avenue to
Martin Luther King, Jr. Boulevard. The street now is
beautiful and should be kept decent and clean. The speed
limit is 25 mph, but cars speed through at 35-40 mph and
this should be checked. Mr. Cheney responded that the speed
will be checked.
Mrs. Margaret Collins referred to making rather extensive
investments in this area of Boynton Beach. She thinks in
this entire 20th century, there is not a single person who
measures up to Martin Luther King, Jr.; he changed the
world. We do not have a street in Palm Beach County to give
him. The county invested $400,000 on that street and her
establishment is also that type of investment. She would
also like to see better police surveillance. She told about
her business serving the entire community. She referred to
this request not being too much to ask and stated the
federal government saw fit to honor Martin Luther King, Jr.
not only with a stamp but declaring his birthday a holiday.
If it becomes a ghetto, it is because the city allows it as
they control the finances. Several people believe this name
change will not only benefit 10th Avenue, but Boynton Beach
as well. They pay taxes and want to feel they are getting a
fair share of the tax dollars. There isn't another man in
all history who has done as much as Martin Luther King, Jr.
She doesn't think it is too much to name these three little
blocks for this man.
Mr. Louis Skinner, 1901 N. E. 2nd Lane, stated he is
speaking for the concerned citizens of Boynton Beach. The
young people are enthused about this name. He asks for the
Council's support in changing this street to Martin Luther
King, Jr. Boulevard.

REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA
MAY 1, 1984
Mrs. Blanche Girtman stated as Chairman of the Community
Relations Board, they would like to see some kind of way our
city can help to keep 10th Avenue, preferably Martin Luther
King, Jr. Boulevard, beautiful. She is appealing to put
something out there like receptacles to keep it beautiful.
They must be given something to work with. She has lived
and worked in Boynton Beach since 1942. This name change is
needed to keep our young people. This area should be
cleaned up and the people kept from loitering in the alleys.
She requests that they be given Martin Luther King, Jr.
Boulevard.
Councilman Wright clarified that she is asking Chief
Hamilton to allow the patrolmen to give more support, but
the people must do what is necessary to clean it up.
Vice Mayor Ferrell made a motion to approve the change of
the name of that section of 10th Avenue to Martin Luther
King, Jr. Boulevard. Councilman Cassandra seconded the
motion. Under discussion, Mr. Cheney asked if the sign for
the street could be M. L. King, Jr. Boulevard and Mr. Wright
replied if the whole name could fit, he would like to see
it. Mr. Cheney clarified that they would like Martin Luther
King, Jr. Boulevard and several people responded affir-
matively. As requested, Mrs. Boroni then took a roll call
vote on the motion as follows:
Councilman Wright
Mayor Zimmerman
Vice Mayor Ferrell - Aye
Councilman Cassandra - Aye
Councilman Warnke - To preface his vote, he attended
a-meeting last night of the
dedication committee. He has
gone on record not being in
favor of this and would rather
see it something else. After
giving further thought last
night and today, he feels it
should be by unanimous approval
of the Council for community
relations. He votes aye.
- Aye
- Aye
Motion carried 5-0.
Councilman Wright concluded that he really appreciates the
Council's support and is glad the citizens have said what
they would like to see done. He has stressed continually
for the citizens of Boynton Beach to be involved in the

He thinks the City of Boynton Beach should be acknowledged
in Palm Beach County for this action taken tonight.
Consider Drainage Projects Fiscal Year 1983/84
Mr. Cheney referred to submitting this list for the
Council's perusal and suggested they not approve, but study
and give the people a chance to come in with some ideas. He
will put this back on the agenda for the next meeting.
Consider Projects to be Funded by City Two Cent Gas Tax
Receipts
Mr. Cheney referred to this being the same kind of list and
requested the Council to study it. He will try to come back
with cost estimates at the next meeting.
Request City Council Authorization of One Additional
Sergeant Position Relative to Change in Police Working
Schedule
Mr. Cheney referred to submitting a memo giving information
and Mr. Ferrell made a motion to add this additional posi-
tion, seconded by Mr. Cassandra. No discussion. Motion
carried 5-0.
Aquatic Weed Control Responsibilities
Mr. Cheney referred to his report showing that we have the
requirement to maintain many canals because of our accep-
tance of this responsibility and stated that somehow we
began to maintain a couple extra ones. He thinks we should
not maintain the extra ones. If we maintain some extra
ones, we should maintain them all. He thinks this should be
stopped, but suggested not stopping until the end of the
fiscal year and notifying the people. Mr. Frederick is pre-
sent to discuss in more detail if desired.
Councilman Cassandra questioned why this should wait until
October 1 and Mr. Cheney replied it would give the people a
chance to make other arrangements.
Councilman Cassandra moved to accept the City Manager's
recommendation on aquatic weed control responsibilities,
seconded by Mr. Ferrell. No discussion. Motion carried
5-0.

Council could recommend approval subject to receipt of the
requested information and meeting requirements.

Authority.
Appointment of Alternate Member to Building Board of

Leonard Mann, presently on the Codes Enforcement Board, and

Alternates for Community Relations Board (Requested by
Councilman Samuel L. Wright)
Councilman Wright stated he spoke with members of the
Community Relations Board and was informed they have had
members ill, etc. and could not conduct business because of
not having a quorum. Other boards have alternates and he
thought this board should have two alternates also.
There was discussion about Mrs. Skinner's attendance and Mr.
Ferrell asked if her status could be changed and Mr. Vance
replied that it could only with cause.
After further discussion, Councilman Wright moved to ask the
City Attorney to draw up the appropriate document regarding
two alternates on the Community Relations Board. Vice Mayor
Ferrell seconded the motion. No discussion. Motion carried
5-0.
Youth on Board
Councilman Cassandra referred to seeing talented youngsters
in operation on Youth in Government Day and stated we
received a talent bank form requesting that David Centola,
Jr., a youngster, be allowed to participate on a city board.
He requested being a member of the Parks & Recreation Board.
He asked if it would be appropriate to add an alternate to
the Parks & Recreation Board and Mr. Vance informed him an
ordinance would be required to change the membership of that
board. Mr. Cassandra asked if an ordinance would be
required to try this out for a year with him being a non-
voting member and Mr. Cheney replied that as an experiment,
it could be designated. Mr. Vance added that it could be
youth observation, but not a formal status. Mr. Cassandra
requested that it be put on the agenda for discussion at the
next meeting. Mr. Wright agreed that he would also like to
see two alternates on that board.
