Meeting Minutes

Boynton Beach, FL
January 4, 2011
Commissioner Holzman asserted the federal monies were not being wisely spent in
comparison to the cost savings for a good return on investment. There had to be a
better way to utilize federal funds. He opined it did not relate to the Climate Action Plan
and did not make a difference in the community. It is a 42-year return on investment.
No jobs have been created. In the future the funds should be used to better the
community and create jobs.
Mayor Rodriguez reiterated the funding has to be related back to the Climate Action
Plan. He questioned if the criteria is being met that should have been set by the
Climate Action Plan. Mr. Bressner responded the lighting was one of the improvements
listed in the Climate Action Plan. The largest contributor is the utility operations and the
technology needed may not be readily available. The availability of funding as it reflects
federal policy is critical. The lights were near the end of their serviceable life. Most
approved spending dollars are for quick wins and readily seen improvements.
There was consensus that all activities should be tied to the Climate Action Plan so for
each single item the Commission knows the connection to the Climate Action Plan,
available options, return on investment and best use of dollars.
Motion
Vice Chair Ross moved to approve. Commissioner Orlove seconded the motion. The
motion passed.

The motion passed.

$35,000, to be paid to the City, for damage to a sewer force main along 1-95
Vice Mayor Ross expressed concern with the impact on the environment. Mr. Bressner

the spill was abated before it reached surface waters. It went into a drainage ditch and

could be easily eradicated and the area restored. Mr. Bressner viewed the incident as a
unique situation that would hopefully not be revisited.
Motion
Commissioner Holzman moved to approve. Commissioner Orlove seconded the
motion. The motion passed.
9. PUBLIC HEARING
7 P.M. OR AS SOON THEREAFTER AS THE AGENDA PERMITS
The City Commission will conduct these public hearings in its dual capacity
as Local Planning Agency and City Commission.
A. PROPOSED ORDINANCE NO. 11-001 - FIRST READING - Approve the
abandonment of a Utility Easement for The Peninsula at Boynton Beach project
at 2660 North Federal Highway on 3.51 acres in the Infill Planned Unit
Development (IPUD) zoning district. Applicant: Manuel Martinez, The Altman
Companies, Inc.
Attorney Cherof read Proposed Ordinance No. 11-001 by title only on first reading.
Kathleen Zeitler, Planner, reviewed the request and located the property. The IPUD was
approved for 30 townhomes and 40 condos. The utility easement was platted to the
City for public purpose use, being 10 feet wide and was a lift station. It has no public
utilities and serves no public purpose. All public notification requirements were
completed and no objections were received. Staff and the Planning and Development
Board recommended approval with no conditions.
Motion
Commissioner Hay moved to approve. Commissioner Orlove seconded the motion.
Vote

Meeting Minutes
Regular City Commission
Boynton Beach, FL
January 4, 2011
submitted that totaled over $1.7 million. There were 14 grants awarded totaling $2.8
million. Due to the approval process there is a three-year window to completion. Staff
is currently managing 29 grants over $10 million. In 2008-09 the stimulus funding
began and 19 grants were sought and awarded. It varies year to year.
Motion
Vice Mayor Ross moved to approve. Commissioner Hay seconded the motion. The
motion passed.
B. Update on the water main break on Seacrest. (Added to the agenda)
Commissioner Hay inquired if the City was fully responsible for the cost. Mr. Mazzella
advised fault could not be laid on the fiber optic workers. It appeared the pipe failed due
to fatigue. It was a 50-year old cast iron pipe servicing only a few homes with little flow
and could have been leaking prior to the break. Mr. Bressner indicated the pipe was
taken out of service and water was re-routed. Commissioner Hay asked if there were
long-range plans to replace pipes in a similar condition. Mr. Mazzella advised there
were assessments made and replacement planned. A small section remains that will
be abandoned in the near future and new pipe laid.
Mr. Bressner commented the road had run over the property for 30 years. The water
main was on public property. The pavement of the road on 9th has historically been
encroaching on the property for years. It is not uncommon. Commissioner Hay
expressed his concern that any future breaks could endanger people as well as
property.
11. UNFINISHED BUSINESS
None
12. NEW BUSINESS
A. Discussion on City Charter (Added to the agenda)
Commissioner Holzman reported the Charter had not been reviewed since 2001. Many
cities around the country review their Charters on a regular basis. A committee should
be appointed to assure the Charter meets the needs of the City now and in the future.
Mr. Bressner recalled the Commission had reviewed the Charter on its own and made
some changes. There was a public hearing. Mr. Holzman felt it was important to
involve the citizens in the review so it reflects the citizens input. Vice Mayor Ross and
Commissioner Hay agreed.
12
Meeting Minutes
Regular City Commission
Boynton Beach, FL
January 4, 2011
Commissioner Orlove ascertained the intent was to have the Commission appoint a
committee. He questioned if a timeframe had been suggested. Mr. Bressner advised it
had to be done in an appropriate time to prepare for an election. The Commission
districts would have to be reviewed based on the latest census figures. It could also be
reviewed by the committee. It is integral to the Charter. Commissioner Holzman's
suggestion was to have staff recommend a committee selection process. Mayor
Rodriguez declared there was consensus to establish a Charter Review Committee and
outline their duties and responsibilities.
B. Sims Center Lighting (Added to the agenda)
Commissioner Hay had received information that the lighting at Sims Center was not
sufficient. He requested Mr. Majors investigate the situation at night.
