there is something on the agenda they may wish to speak about
it and if so, should give their name to the City Clerk at this

to speak.
Mr. Harold Werger, 1306 N.W. 7th Street, thanked the members of

few people have deposited more trash and the hot rodding is still
going on. He suggests that bumps be put in the center of the
strip periodically to eliminate the hot rodding. Mr. Cheney
informed him this is not permissable, but radar will be there
more often.
CONSENT AGENDA
A. Bids
Two (2) Peabody Floway Standard Deepwell Turbine Pumps -
Utilities
The Tabulation Committee recommends awarding the bid to J.
Williams Pump in the amount of $5,118, which is the best
acceptable bid being the alternate low bid with a porcelain
bowl in lieu of the base bid which called for a Heresite
bowl.
Thirty (30) Folding Steel Tables (Globe Institutional Table
Model ~TAG243 or Equal) - Recreation
The Tabulation Committee recommends awarding the bid to ATD
in the amount of $1,223.70, which is the low bidder and
meets all specifications.
Anhydrous Ammonia - Utilities
The Purchasing Agent recommends extending the contract with
Bower for one more year, not only because of the price, but
the service is excellent. The approximate cost of ammonia
over a twelve month period will be $4,500.
Sole Source Purchase of Stem-Lite - Fire Department
The Purchasing Agent recommends purchasing this directly
from Super Vacuum Manufacturing Company, Inc., since other
companies contacted did send brochures for similar equip-
ment, but none meet specifications required by the Fire
Department.
Sole Source Purchase of Lime for Water Plant - Utilities
The Utility Director and Purchasing Agent recommend
bypassing the bidding process and extending our contract
with S. I. Lime for the reasons noted in their memo of
March 23, 1984.

the Council members did not have any questions for the appli-
cant. He then asked if anyone in the audience wanted to speak
in favor of this particular item and received no response. He
asked if anyone wanted to speak against this application and
received no response.
Councilman Warnke moved to approve this request for abandonment
subject to staff comments, seconded by Vice Mayor Ferrell. No
discussion. Motion carried 5-0.
NEW BUSINESS
Report from Screening Committee on Industrial Revenue Bonds -
Boynton Commerce Center
Mr. Cheney informed the Council this ties in with the new
program which was authorized after the workshop on Industrial
Revenue Bonds was held with some interested developers in the
city, Chamber of Commerce, state industrial representatives,
etc. After the workshop, a report was adopted to go ahead with
this program. He explained how this had followed the procedure
adopted and a recommendation has now been submitted from the
Industrial Revenue Bond Screening Committee. The recommen-
dation is that the Mayor and City Council approve in principle
the request for Industrial Revenue Bonds for Boynton Commerce
Center and ask the Bond Attorney to prepare the necessary reso-
lutions for Letter of Inducement for future action by the City
Council. The rest of the report is structured to give a sum-
mary of what this particular project is all about.
Attorney Steve Daniels came forward representing Boynton
Commerce Center. They request the Council to authorize a reso-
lution authorizing a letter of inducement so they can begin
this project as soon as possible.
Councilman Warnke referred to guidelines not having been deve-
loped for specific uses to be approved by the city, but stated
he expects any uses would be subject to Planning & Zoning Board
approval and Mr. Cheney informed him this Ks zoned P.I.D.,
which is very specific. Any changes from the site plan would
have to come back through the planning process and City
Council. What was meant in the report is the Screening
Committee thought we should identify some high priorities and
maybe some not allowed. He explained how the committee felt
this particular use with P.I.D. restrictions is appropriate for
industrial revenue bonds, but possibly something like retail
development should not be encouraged.
Councilman Wright asked if persons from Boynton Beach would be
employed and Mr. Wayne Gerl replied that they will be supplying
- 7 -
REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA
APRIL 17, 1984
warehouse space and he is sure those tenants will be employing
people from this community. Further discussion ensued
regarding placing emphasis on hiring residents of Boynton
Beach. Mr. Cheney clarified that Mr. Gerl is a developer and
is building buildings to sell or lease, but will not be
directly employing. There is also an economic advantage to the
city with the tax base being developed.
Councilman Warnke moved to approve the granting of this
industrial revenue bond application and refer to the city's
bond counsel for the next step. Vice Mayor Ferrell seconded
and the motion carried 5-0.
Attorney Davis advised they would like to get a letter of indu-
cement as soon as possible to begin this project and asked if
there was a resolution to enter into a letter of inducement.
Mayor Zimmerman informed him that the bond attorney would be
notified. Mr. Cheney explained that the bond counsel has been
notified and he will call him in New York to make sure the pro-
cess is moving along.
DEVELOPMENT PLANS
Approve Boynton Lakes PUD/Master Plan Modification
Mr. Annunziato referred to the Council previously reviewing a
request to install cable television facilities near the
recreation area and agreed it was a substantial change and
advised that fell by the wayside. This request is to install
the cable television facility in the southeast corner of the
PUD adjacent to the E-4 canal, north of canal 20 and consists
of one 6.1 meter dish antenna, two 5 meter dish antennaes, one
free-standing 60' receiving tower and a free-standing 286 sq.
ft. building. This is a two-fold process, first involving a
determination by the City Council and if found to be non-
substantial to be forwarded to the Planning & Zoning Board.
The Technical Review Board met and discussed this request and
recommend to the City Council that a finding of no substantial
change be made because of the location by the canal. However,
there are some clarifications which should be put on record.
This will be a municipally franchised cable television operator
and not the homeowners or equipment. The City Attorney said
this is within the limits in the ordinance regulations.
However, from a zoning point of view, sale of these signals
beyond the limits of the PUD would constitute infraction of
zoning regulations. This operator will be limited to selling
cable television signals only to the Boynton Lakes PUD
development.

Mr. Warnke asked if a 60 ft. antenna is within the height regu-
lations and Mr. Annunziato replied affirmatively.
Councilman Warnke moved that this does constitute a substantial
change and they should come back with a new application. A
representative came forward and Mr. Warnke withdrew his motion.
Mr. James Thiele, representing Lennar Corporation, stated they
submitted a request in February, but the staff had a problem
with the site. Subsequently, they resubmitted plans and the
staff feels at this point, it does not constitute a substantial
change and agrees with the site. They have met all the
requirements and agree with the further stipulation of limiting
the service area to the Boynton Lakes PUD. Prior to submitting
this site, they met with the homeowners and they are anxious to
receive cable TV service. They feel going through a revised
PUD master plan would be an unnecessary exercise at this point
since everyone is in agreement with the site and the staff does
not think it constitutes a substantial change. A petition was
submitted by 100% of the property owners with the application
stating they want the service. Public interest would not be
served in declaring this is a substantial change requiring
plans to be resubmitted, etc.
Vice Mayor Ferrell clarified that approval is recommended with
comments which means no substantial change and Mr. Annunziato
agreed this is correct as long as it is limited to Boynton
Lakes PUD. Mr. Thiele agreed this was understood. Mayor
Zimmerman asked if all three questions in the recommendation
were answered and Mr. Annunziato replied affirmatively with
some being answered by the applicant and some by the legal
staff.
Mr. Thiele pointed out the proposed location on the map and
explained what the equipment would consist of. He continued
that the area will be landscaped to buffer residential lots.
The 60 ft. antenna is needed to pick up Miami signals. They
still must go before the Planning & Zoning Board and Community
Appearance Board with detailed development plans. Mr.
Annunziato added that the site plan procedure will be followed
if approved.
Mr. Ferrell made a motion to approve as no substantial change,
seconded by Mr. Wright. No discussion. Motion carried 5-0.
Approve request for a variance to the temporary redevelopment
area moratorium and site plan approval to construct a two-story
rectory/office and parking lot improvements on a site of 19.23
acres submitted by Richard SanGiovanni for St. Mark's Catholic
Church located at 733 N.E. 4th Avenue

Mr. Annunziato explained the lengthy review necessary for mora-
torium variances. He explained the location and advised this
is a 28 ft. platted street which was never developed. The rec-
tory will be placed on the little houses site. The church had
plans to construct a rectory in the southeast corner origi-
nally, but purchased this land to construct the rectory. This
is consistent with the redevelopment plan. The rectory is two
stories with garages to the north. The applicant is redeve-
loping the existing parking lot to meet current codes as well
as landscaping. There was a request from the applicant to be
exempted from constructing sidewalks on 4th Avenue, the alley,
and the 60' right-of-way of N.E. 6th Avenue and the Technical
Review Board waived the sidewalks on the two streets, but it is
to be constructed on N.E. 6th Avenue. The Planning & Zoning
Board conducted a public hearing and forwarded a resolution
finding this plan is consistent with the redevelopment plan.
This comes with a positive recommendation subject to staff com-
ments. The Planning Department's comment on the abandonment con-
cerned adding an additional 8' right-of-way.
Mayor Zimmerman requested the applicant to come forward and Mr.
Richard SanGiovanni stated he would be glad to answer any
questions.
Councilman Warnke moved to approve this request subject to
staff comments, seconded by Councilman Cassandra. Under
discussion, Councilman Wright referred to receiving any
conflicting reports from the Community Redevelopment Agency and
Mayor Zimmerman informed him that all three were approved in
this area. Motion carried 5-0.
Approve request for a variance to temporary redevelopment area
moratorium and site plan approval to paint building, remove a
section of walkway roof to allow parking to abut the front of
the building, construct a new roof and roof flashing and
reseal, patch, save and stripe the existing parking lot. This
request was submitted by Eugene Skeen for Flamingo Plaza
located at 415 South Federal Highway
Mr. Annunziato explained how this applicant wanted to bring the
site into conformance with current codes. This comes to the
City Council with a positive recommendation on the part of all
agencies. 'The staff comments are included as part of the plan.
Mayor Zimmerman asked if a representative from Flamingo Plaza
would come forward and Mr. Eugene Skeen stated he would answer
any questions.
Councilman Warnke moved to approve this request for this
variance subject to staff comments, seconded by Councilman

Cassandra. Under discussion, Councilman Wright commented that
contrary to what was said in the last year or two regarding
merchants in the downtown, it seems some of the entrepreneurs
are working dilligently to improve their buildings. This is a
nice plaza and these improvements being made are appreciated.
Hopefully this momentum will continue in redevelopment of the
downtown area. Motion carried 5-0.
Approve request for a variance to the temporary redevelopment
area moratorium and site plan approval to construct a one-story
office supply and furniture store on 26,043 square feet, sub-
mitted by William Brainard for Halsey & Griffith located on the
southwest corner of S.E. 2nd Avenue and S.E. 4th Street
Mr. Annunziato informed the Council the applicants have been
understanding and willing to comply with the dictates of the
redevelopment plan. This went through the review and comes to
the City Council with a positive recommendation from all review
agencies. The staff comments are attached to the plan. He
explained how the public right-of-way would also be upgraded as
an additional concept of this plan~
Mayor Zimmerman asked if the applicant was present and Mr. Bill
Brainard came forward to answer any questions.
Councilman Cassandra moved to approve the unanimous recommen-
dation of the Community Redevelopment Agency and Planning &
Zoning Board for the Halsey & Griffith site plan with staff
comments. Councilman Wright seconded the motion. No
discussion. Motion carried 5-0.
Approve request for preliminary plat approval of Meadows 300,
Plat III submitted by Jim Thiele for C & H Properties which
provides for the defining of the remaining tracts of the
Meadows 300 PUD as boundary plat only, and the completion of
Meadows Blvd. The location of this plat is Congress Avenue and
Meadows Blvd.
Mr.' Annunziato informed the Council this is a request to plat
the remainder of the Meadows PUD. This 'is the same development
concept employed by Hunter's Run with a spine road with major
utilities. This request was reviewed by the Technical Review
Board and went to the Planning & Zoning Board with a positive
recommendation subject to staff comments from the engineering
and utility departments. The Planning & Zoning Board unani-
mously recommended approval. The Planning & Zoning Board did
discUss paving the two streets dead ending into the non-platted
areas and this is a subdivision requirement and if the roads
are to be made public, they must be bonded.

Mr. Julian Bryan came forward representing the applicant.
Mayor Zimmerman referred to the road situation. Mr. Bryan
stated in this particular case, he believes the distinction is
not whether the road should be built, but when it should be
built and whether it is the responsibility of this developer.
In the original PUD, the roads were added as an after-thought.
The two roads to the west were added as a reservation. They do
not have any problem with extending the water and sewer system
to the perimeter of the property, but providing public access
would seem inappropriate and a problem with policing because
the road will go nowhere and be a vandalism and maintenance
problem. If it is felt to be a requirement of the subdivision
regulation, he requests that it be considered at a later date.
They do not think it is in the best interest of the city right
now.
Mayor Zimmerman referred to it being constructed for emergency
services to the west of this area and Mr. Bryan agreed, but
explained this would dead end into undeveloped property and
would serve no purpose.
Vice Mayor Ferrell referred to possibly delaying the construc-
tion and Mr. Annunziato explained that roads are constructed to
connect different parts of the city. The ordinance states
where property abuts unplatted areas or acreage, it is the
owner's responsibility to provide access to that site. He
realizes it may be years before the road is used, but there is
the technical issue of posting the bond. The suggested life
expectancy of a bond for public improvements is 21 months and
this could be left until the end. If the construction is not
appropriate at that time, they could seek a variance to remove
the requirement of constructing those two fingers. Vice Mayor
Ferrell asked if he felt the bond for 21 months is acceptable
and Mr. Annunziato replied affirmativlely and added that
construction could be delayed and the applicant could request a
variance through a different procedure. Mr. Bryan referred to
there possibly being some inequity in the ordinance, but if at
the end of 21 months there is no demonstrated need for develop-
ment to the west, they will request a variance.
Vice Mayor Ferrell made a motion to approve this request sub-
ject to staff comments with particular reference to the bond
and the 21 month period. Councilman Cassandra seconded the
motion. No discussion. Motion carried 5-0.
Approve request for preliminary plat approval of Boynton
Lakes, Plat III, submitted by Rick Rossi for Lennar Homes,
Inc. This plat is located on the east side of Congress
Avenue south of Hypoluxo Road and provides for infrastruc-
ture improvements to a previously approved phase of this PUD

Mr. Annunziato informed the Council this is the northeast
one-third of Boynton Lakes. This is a request to plat pro-
perty previously approved with zero lot lines. The Planning
& Zoning Board unanimously recommended approval subject to
staff comments. The applicant has agreed to comply with the
staff comments.
Mayor Zimmerman asked if the applicant was present and
received no response. He commented that many Council mem-
bers were present at the Planning & Zoning Board and
Community Appearance Board meetings when these plans were
reviewed.
Councilman Cassandra moved to accept the unanimous recommen-
dation of the Planning & Zoning Board on Boynton Lakes Plat
III, subject to staff comments. Councilman Warnke seconded
the motion. No discussion. Motion carried 5-0.
Approve request for after-the-fact approval of the construc-
tion and erection of a 4~ foot sign showing entrance to the
developments of Chanteclair Villas/Palmland Villas submitted
by Bernard Seligson for Chanteclair Villas Recreation
Association. The sign is located on Charter Drive west of
S. Congress Avenue (City of Boynton Beach right-of-way)
Mr. Annunziato informed the Council this is an entrance sign
to Chanteclair Villas/Palmland Villas as a result of a
request from the homeowners. There is a positive and unani-
mous recommendation from all the reviewing agencies to
approve this sign. There was some discussion regarding the
location with respect to the future widening of Congress
Avenue. The staff recommended the sign be moved back 75
feet west of the future center line of Congress Avenue when
reconstructed. The applicant requested he be allowed to
leave the sign in the current location and move it back 75
feet upon the commencing of construction of Congress Avenue.
Councilman Warnke made a motion to approve this request sub-
ject to staff comments, seconded by Vice Mayor Ferrell.
Under discussion, Councilman Cassandra stated these people
were exposed to a sign maker who disappeared from Boynton
Beach, who was supposed to get a permit for this sign and
never paid money for the permit. At the last meeting, we
recommended waiving the fee against Chanteclair Villas and
Palmland, but the attorney recommended against this because
of the possibility of finding Rainbow Signs. Possibly now
we should consider removing the responsibility of the fee
from Chanteclair Villas and Palmland and clear this off the
books.

APRIL 17, 1984
Councilman Warnke amended his motion to include this recom-
mendation, seconded by Vice Mayor Ferrell. Under
discussion, Mayor Zimmerman asked if the City Attorney was
aware of anything more which could be done to collect from
the contractor and Mr. Vance replied that it would be dif-
ficult since he cannot be found. Mr. Cheney commented that
if he tries to go into business again and needs an occupa-
tional license from the county or city, he will have more
problems than a fee. He told about trying to locate the
contractor and agrees the books should be closed on this as
these people will have the expense of relocating the sign.
Mayor Zimmerman clarified that the original motion now
includes the waiver of the fee. Motion carried 5-0.
Approve request for site plan approval for the construction
of entrance way walls and signs for Boynton Lakes submitted
by Donald E. Elliott for Lennar Homes, Inc. Boynton Lakes
is located at the corner of Boynton Lakes Blvd. and Congress
Avenue
Mr. Annunziato explained that this request was to build a
fancy wall similar to other recent developments on Congress
Avenue. This request was recommended for approval by the
Technical Review Board without comment and the Planning &
Zoning Board unanimously recommended approval. This was
also favorably approved by the Community Appearance Board.
Mr. Ferrell made a motion to approve this request, seconded
by Mr. Warnke. No discussion. Motion carried 5-0.
Approve request for site plan approval of the Boynton Beach
Distribution Center submitted by Jeffrey Sherman for Boynton
Beach Distribution Center Associates, a Florida General
Partnership, to provide for the construction of 99,121
square feet of industrial warehousing on the east side of
High Ridge Road south of Miner Road right-of-way
Mr. Annunziato showed the western half of the proposed site
plan. He advised this is a request to construct several
buildings with different types of architecture. He
explained the access to the site. He then showed the
eastern half of the site plan and pointed out the access.
This request went to the Planning & Zoning Board with a
positive recommendation from the city staff subject to tech-
nical comments, which were accepted by the applicant. The
Planning & Zoning Board and Community Appearance Board
recommend approval.

Mr. Richard Wensing, Architect, came forward and explained
there will be nine buildings on the site with eight dif-
ferent styles of architecture. It is an industrial park
rather than an industrial development.
Councilman Warnke questioned what primary industries would
be attracted and Mr. Wensing replied office warehousing.
Mr. Cassandra added that it would be support type warehouses
for the mall. Mr. Wensing advised there is a total of
approximately 21 acres and this is about 7 acres.
Mro Ferrell made a motion to approve this request with staff
comments, seconded by Mr. Cassandra. Motion carried 5-0.
Approve request for site plan approval for the
Strauss-Wassner Furniture Store submitted by Madelyn Strauss
and Linda Wassner, owners, which provides for the construc-
tion of a two story, 13,680 sq. ft. building on a 1.123 acre
site located on S. Congress Avenue, Lawson Industrial Park
Mr. Annunziato stated this is a direct result of the recent
modification of the M-1 zoning code wherein wholesale and
partial retail outlets are permitted. This is a furniture
store which will cater to the trade and not necessarily to
the general public. He explained the location, design of
the building and access to the site. This request went to
the Planning & Zoning Board with a positive recommendation
from the municipal staff subject to comments. The comments
were accepted and incorporated into the plan. The Planning
& Zoning Board and Community Appearance Board recommended
approval.
Councilman Wright moved to approve this request for site
plan approval for the Strauss-Wassner Furniture Store sub-
ject to staff comments, seconded by Councilman Cassandra.

Review for consistency with the Comprehensive Plan of a pro-
posed modification of the zoning regulations which, if
approved, would allow drive-through restaurants to be
constructed in the C-2 Neighborhood Commercial District
Mr. Annunziato informed the City Council this was recom-
mended by a 5-2 vote of the Planning & Zoning Board. This
was reviewed with regards to consistency with the comprehen-
sive plan. The proposed proposal is an ordinance amending
- 15 -
REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA
APRIL 17, 1984
the description of drive-in restaurants to allow drive-
through restaurants to be a separate category and not prohi-
bited in that classification. Following receipt of the
ordinance, the Planning Department prepared an extensive
analysis which was submitted. He explained how charac-
teristics of the present C-2 and C-3 zoning districts were
given full review and consideration. He then explained how
nuisances associated with drive-through restaurants were
given full consideration.
Mr. Annunziato advised that it was the planning staff's
recommendation to the Planning & Zoning Board that owing to
the lot depth in C-2, location by residential districts, and
the characteristics of drive-through restaurants that they
not be permitted in C-2 districts. It was felt drive-
through restaurants would be in conflict with the intent of
the C-2 district. The recommendation was to clearly define
both drive-in and drive-through restaurants and be prohi-
bited from locating in a C-2 zone. However, the Planning
& Zoning Board felt it was not appropriate to prohibit
drive-in or drive-through restaurants in the C-2 zone
completely. It was felt some C-2 zones were appropriate and
they should be addressed on a case by case basis. The
Planning & Zoning Board recommended drive-through and drive-
in restaurants be made conditional uses in C-2, C-3 and C-4
zones.
Mayor Zimmerman questioned how much of the Planning
Department's recommendation was reflected in the proposed
ordinance and Mr. Annunziato replied the definition prepared
by the attorney's office is good for drive-through
restaurant, but he is also recommending drive-in restaurant
be defined so it is clear. The definition proposed is par-
tially acceptable. Mayor Zimmerman clarified there would
have to be a further definition to compliment this and Mr.
Annunziato agreed this was correct.
Councilman Cassandra referred to the report being excellent
and the recommendation from the Planning & Zoning Board
being good, but stated it should be clarified. He
explained how drive-through restaurants are the same as
other restaurants as far as having odors, dumpsters,
parking, etc. He told about checking personally on the
extent of nuisance caused by the speakers and headlights.
He believes there is a requirement for a 6' wall and if the
speaker is at the window level, it would cut down on the
noise. Mr. Annunziato clarified that the argument for con-
ditional use was based on C-2 having different kinds of adja-
cent zoning and with a public hearing, the Planning & Zoning
- 16 -
REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA
APRIL 17, 1984
Board and City Council could explore the negative impacts
created by the particular site. When a site plan is
reviewed, it would answer a lot of the questions raised in
the report.
Vice Mayor Ferrell summarized that what is needed is an
ordinance dealing with drive-through window restrictions
without getting into legal problems. He explained how most
restaurants have the same characteristics with the exception
of the loud speaker for the drive-through window. The defi-
nition is what should be clarified. Mr. Annunziato replied
that the definition which exists leaves no question this is
not a permitted use. A restaurant can be in C-2, but fast
food restaurants will not locate in C-2 because they cannot
have a drive-through window. There are mostly neighborhood
type restaurants in C-2 zones.
Councilman Wright questioned what the impact would be to
approve the recommendation of the Planning & Zoning Board
and Mr. Annunziato replied the impact would be is the appli-
cant would have to secure a conditional use approval prior
to securing a building permit.
Mayor Zimmerman stated he feels this ordinance is rather
inadequate and from the discussionw we do not feel this
answers the entire question. Possibly this ordinance should
be discarded and more direct suggestions be given to the
City Attorney to complete an ordinance to answer the entire
question.
Councilman Warnke stated the establishment of drive-through
restaurants tend to degrade the adjacent residential areas
and this is in conflict with the comprehensive plan and also
in conflict with the C-2 district. Anybody who would want
to put one of these in a C-2 district should go through the
regular city procedures rather then draw up an ordinance for
one particular application.
Mayor Zimmerman requested the City Manager to comment. Mr.
Cheney stated there is no question that a Wendy's or
McDonald's cannot go into a C-2 zone. To attempt to obtain
a variance would be illegal because it would be a use
variance. The question comes to the Planning & Zoning Board
because it is a policy question of what is wanted in the C-2
zone. He referred to considering the approaches to the mall
and explained how there is the tendency for all these
restaurants to come together in the C-3 zone as evidenced
along U. S. 1. He explained how the issue was to decide
where these should be allowed.

REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA
APRIL 17, 1984
Councilman Cassandra asked if the area was spelled out in
C-2 with a definition for drive-through, would it be legal
to say they would not have to follow the building and site
requirements and Mr. Doney informed him the applicant still
must comply with the site requirements. Mr. Cassandra asked
if it would be secure with conditional use and Mr. Doney
replied affirmatively.
Vice Mayor Ferrell referred to there being a definite dif-
ference between drive-in and drive-through restaurants and
suggested that more research be done. He thinks it should
be restricted and defined correctly now. Possibly we should
approve in concept with more research given. Mr. Doney
advised they submitted what they thought the Council wanted,
but agrees better definitions are needed.
Mr. Ferrell made a motion to adopt the recommendation of the
Planning & Zoning Board subject to returning with a final
ordinance. Mr. Cassandra asked if the applicant could
proceed and Mr. Cheney replied negatively as an ordinance
must be prepared. Mr. Cassandra then seconded the motion.
Under discussion, Mr. Wright asked if it would be finalized
within a month and Mr. Cheney replied the ordinance will be
prepared next week and two readings are necessary. Mr.
Ferrell clarified that this is the concept, but it should be
more definitive. Mr. Annunziato clarified that drive-
through and drive-in should be defined with simple defini-
tions and C-2, C-3 and C-4 zones amended to accept these
kinds of restaurants under conditional use. Motion carried
4-1 with Mr. Warnke dissenting.

Councilman Cassandra moved to approve Resolution No. 84-II,
seconded by Councilman Warnke. Under discussion, Mr.
Cassandra asked what the scrivner's errors were and Mr.
Cheney informed him that this came about after the descrip-
tion was sent to the County Appraiser's office, so this area
could be set aside as a separate taxing district. The
Property Appraiser's office noted some minor problems
relating to splitting a parcel owned by one person. After
receiving this report, Mr. Annunziato met with them and went
through it lot by lot. This is straightening it out, so it
can be properly handled for the proper tax base. Mr.
Annunziato added that in our attempt to simplify, some pro-
perties were split and he pointed these out on a map. This
would have resulted in the Property Appraiser having to pre-
pare two tax bills. The second was a scrivner's error on

Mro Doney stated he does not understand why South Florida
Public Telecommunications, Inc. feel they don't have to pay
the tax. Mr. Cheney advised that he understands they were
not paying tax as they thought they were exempt, but there
is nothing in the ordinance allowing this. Mr. Doney added
that there is a state statute and city ordinance, neither of
which seem to exempt this type of organization.
After discussion, Councilman Warnke moved to table, seconded
by Councilman Cassandra. Motion carried 5-0.
OLD BUSINESS
Wastewater Plant Overflow by Delra¥ Beach
Councilman Warnke referred to Delray Beach extensively using
the wastewater treatment plant and stated the City of
Boynton Beach will not have storage capacity over the next
two years before any addition to the plant is completed. He
feels we should convince Delray Beach not to use our allot-
ment. We have a responsibility to the citizens of our city
to provide sewage facilities. Our present input over the
next 2~ years would be adequate until the addition to the
plant is built; however, if Delray Beach increased over the
- 21 -
REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA
APRIL 17, 1984
next 2~ years, it will cut into our usage and possibly
result in a moratorium for both cities. He just brought
this up for consideration and to ask the City Attorney how
Boynton Beach can force the City of Delray Beach to stop any
more input into the plant.
Mr. Doney advised that the interlocal agreement does not
address precisely this situation, only if one exceeds, the
other may agree to allow them to borrow capacity and pay
150%. He suggests negotiating with Delray Beach and making
them aware of our concern and try to negotiate if they
exceed their 7.5 mgd, they will be bound to pay the penalty.
There is possibly a problem that Delray Beach may not want
to sign such an agreement. If that did happen, possibly the
City could seek legal action and get a declaration of the
cities' rights under this agreement. At some point, it must
end and Boynton Beach should be guaranteed their allotted
capacity. He recommends negotiations and if that fails,
then legal action.
Mayor Zimmerman stated that he believes the idea of talking
with Delray Beach will be profitable. He has heard remarks
that they are not too much opposed to it. They can make use
of our allotment to get them out of a moratorium. We can
get this allotment back when the plant is increased in size.
We will claim 12 mgd of the 24 mgd. He thinks we can get
their consent to the payment.
Councilman Warnke asked if we gave permission for them to
use our allotment at 150%, could they go as far as they want
to and Mr. Doney replied that the plant can only take so
much capacity. It could be limited and we do not have to
give the whole capacity. It could be a short term
agreement. If they get to an astronomical usage, the
agreement could be terminated. Mr. Warnke clarified that if
they go over a certain amount per month, they would be
charged or would have to stop and Mr. Doney agreed this
could be done, but Delray Beach must agree.
Councilman Wright suggested discussing this at the board
meeting and Councilman Warnke replied that it was discussed
at the last board meeting and the attorney said the indivi-
dual cities must work it out. Mr. Ferrell suggested that
the two City Attorneys negotiate with possibly Delray Beach
signing an agreement.
Councilman cassandra stated he would like to know what their
projection is. If Delray Beach repairs their problems, they
would be below their allocation. He would like to see the

Utility Directors and City Manager check this and submit a
report. Also, Boynton Beach does have a reserve with the
old plant. He doesn't think we should go with the City
Attorneys yet.
Mr. Warnke stated he is looking at the statistical facts
where in nine months, we will not have sewer and Mr.
Cassandra disagreed. Mr. Wright suggested having the
employees with expertise in this area give a recommendation
and then proceed.
Mayor Zimmerman referred to the rate actually not exceeding
when based on an average for' Delray Beach and Councilman
Warnke disagreed.
After further discussion, Councilman Warnke moved to post-
pone this until the next Council meeting on May 1 pending
the opinion of our Utilities Director, Mr. Cessna.
Councilman Cassandra seconded the motion. No discussion.
Motion carried 5-0.
