adequate time to review it or not. Mayor Harmening requested
the feeling of the Council and Mr. Wright replied that he
believes Councilman deLong was concerned, but he finds it
self-explanatory.
Mr. deLong stated that he doesn't appreciate the method
used to eliminate certain ordinances. He knows the staff
has done a splendid job in weeding out obsolete ordinances,
but it is the authority of the City CounCil to say what is
to be eliminated. What was to be eliminated should have

been brought before' the City Council for our review. He is
not going to spend the rest of his life trying to decipher
what is going to be eliminated. Mr. Vance informed him that
the sections which were removed are those sections made obso-
lete by State Statute; there was no intent to remove sections
of the City Code that were not obsolete. Mr. deLong stated
that he did not contend that, but his contention is that it
would have been easier to tell us what was taken out instead
of what was left in.
Mr. deLong referred to needing an instrument to work with and
stated as we go along, we will find out what is missing. He
is just explaining that it would have been much easier to ex-
plain what they wanted to delete instead of doing it this way.
He is not going to spend time comparing the new with the old.
Mayor Harmening referred to this having been going on for
over 1½ years and Mr. deLong replied that we have never gotten
a presentation of what was going to be eliminated. Mayor
Harmening explained that ~he codification people do the. revi-
sion and did not eliminate anything which was not eliminated
by ordinance or State Statute.
Mr. deLong stated that we did not have the opportunity to
check it over. He is not going to raise any contention.
If he votes for it, it will be based on needing an instru-
ment to proceed, but not approving the way it was worked out.
Mayor Harmening stated the original copy from the codifica-
tion people was submitted to various departments and some
commen'ts were received. Mr_ Cheney explained that the codi-
fication people met with~11 the departments, the City Clerk
and City Attorney. They digested all the ordinances which

Mr. deLong stated the thing which concerns him is that all
the time spent on this new one, it should have been sub-
mitted exactly as it was taken out. Mr. Cheney stated this
was done and Mr. deLong replied that he wanted the items.
Mr. Cheney stated possibly the code company could supply
this.
Mr. Wright referred to a workshop meeting being scheduled
in the near future and asked if this could be covered at
that time?
Mr. Trauger referred to the possibility of adopting the code
as now prepared and questioned what happens later when some-
thing occurs which was formerly in the code and has been eli-
minated and Mr. Vance informed him that if we find something
was left out, we would have to re-adopt that particular ordi-
nance. Mr. Trauger referred to a violation and Mr. Vance
replied that he doesn't believe anything of significance has
been left out. This has been through a detailed review with
his office. It has been through two reviews of each depart-
ment going over its section of the code. Their best effort
was made to do it correctly and that is about all that can
be done.
Mrs. Woolley stated 'she would like to go ahead with this as
something is needed to work with. Mr. deLong remarked that
the old one is in effect. Mrs. Woolley continued that if
anything comes up, it can be worked out from there. Mr.
Wright added that with taking more than two years, he would
think it is in perfect form.
Mr. Trauger moved to take this from the table, seconded by
Mr. deLong. Motion carried 5-0.

by Mr. Trauger. Under discussion, Mayor Harmening referred
to it saying we believe our commitment will comply with the
appropriate state and local laws, rules and regulations for
the administration of this program, etc. and questioned what
are some of the regulations and Mr. Annunziato replied that
he is not sure as it is not specifically outlined at this
stage in the application. This is a preliminary application
procedure to get on line. If the application is acceptable,
it doesn't require us to go forward. Mayor Harmening ques-
tioned the percentage of matching funds and Mr. Annunziato
informed him it would be 2,/3 from the state and 1/3 local.
Mr. deLong asked if we have provisions for matching funds
and Mr. Cheney replied that we have not budgeted for them,
but hopefully some of our energy costs programmed in the
future will serve as the matching share. Mr. deLong re-
ferred to it being quite a sum and Mr. Chgney replied that
he doubts it as he doesn't believe much 701 money will be
coming in this direCtion. Mayor Harmening added that he
believes it will be awhile before getting to the actual
expenditures; however, the brochure looked like it might
be worthwhile. Mr. Wright asked if this is some of the
money appropriated by the State Legislature and Mr. Cheney
informed him these are federal funds. Mr. Wright asked if
they are administered by the state and Mr. Cheney replied
affirmatively. Mr. Wright stated this is supposed to be the
Department of Veteran and Community Affairs and Mr. Annunziato

schedule of activities as prepared on 2/23/81. Mr. deLong
seconded the motion and requested the City Manager to answer
the question he asked whether there is any possible chance
to move this along more rapidly. Mr. Cheney replied that he
doesn't think it is possible. That is one reason why he put
as much detail in the schedule to incorporate the issues of
financing, design and clubhouse building to show how they fit
together. We cannot proceed with a project as complicated
as this without a target date. Mr. deLong asked if the members
of the Golf Committee have all received a copy of this schedule
and Mr. Cheney replied affirmatively and added that he is
meeting with them on Monday night. Mr. Cheney continued that
they have gone over this in a lot of detail and think it is a
realistic schedule. Also, the idea of opening on July 4th is

Authorize One Year Renewal of Urban Forestry Contrac~
Mr. Cheney referred to this being budgeted this year and
being approved with the budget and advised it is a continu-
ing agreement with the State as to the activities on this
program which was started one year ago.
Mr. deLong moved to authorize a one year renewal of the Urban
Forestry Contract, seconded by Mr. Trauger. Under discussion~
Mr. Wright requested an explanation of this program. Mr.
Cheney stated that basically the State has agreed to provide
an Urban Forester to the City. We pay the State $3,000. They
provide a Forester totally at their cost to us to use as we
see fit. He knows Mr. Hallahan has been involved advising
citizens and we are involved in a program of landscaping the
Water Plant, have started a nursery at the Water Plant with
plans to expand, and Mr. Hallahan has been participating in
the technical review process. Mr. Trauger commented in
watching the Technical Review Board's process and through
the beautification of the City, he thinks the City has got-
ten their monies' worth. As the other tree and landscape
ordinances get developed, we will be fortunate to have some-
one of this caliber on board. MOtion carried 5-0.
Discuss Girl Scout Park - Requested by Councilmember Patricia
Woolley
Mrs. Woolley stated that she understands the City has been
receiving memos from the County as to the status of Girl
Scout Park located at the end of Sunset Road in Chapel Hill.

MINUTES - REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA
~RCH 3, 1981
Mrs. Woolley referred to speaking on behalf of the home-
owners and stated they would like to see this park barri-
caded off to any vehicular traffic. They have had numer-
ous problems on Sunset Road and Chapel Hill Boulevard.
The Boynton Beach Police have done a good job in keeping
up with the complaints. However, last week, one of the
neighbors was walking his dog and two cars came flying by
from the park and ended up in a front yard. The car came
so close that it knocked this gentleman and his dog off
the road and he was terrified. The Police were called
and the neighbors barricaded the entranceway. However,
when the Police went into investigate, the cars were gone
since they evidently have access out of the back of the
park towards 23rd Avenue. This is one incident where
someone could have been killed. There are cars zipping
up and down this street and they are not the people who
live there. Obscenities are yelled out of car windows.
High school kids come there on their lunch break and a man
does come from Atlantic High School to route the kids out
of this dead end area. It is a lovers' lane area and who
knows what is going on back there. It really creates a
hazard as far as traffic. She thinks the County should be
demanded to block it off. It doesn't serve any useful
purpose. The Girl SCout hut isn't there and it is not used
by any group. It is not maintained. Kids are there all
night long and they have drag races on the grass area.
She understands the people who have lived along this street
have been complaining about it, but have not gotten anywhere.
This is an appeal to have the County do something about this
hazard.
Mr. deLong stated he thinks it would be appropriate and moves
to have a resolution drafted to the County authorities to see
if they can barricade this or have some control. Since it is
the will of the neighborhood to eliminate this nuisance, we
should accommodate them. Mayor Harmening suggested having
Mr. Cheney send a letter to Mr. John Dance and Commissioner
Gregory setting forth a few of the statements made instead of
a resolution. Mr. Wright suggested sending a copy to the
County administration and Mayor Harmening disagreed. Mr.
deLong stated that he believes a letter should be sent to
Commissioner Gregory with a'copy to Mr. Dance. Mayor
Harmen±ng suggested incorporating in the letter that we
would like to have the County Park Police visit this place
around noon, 2:00 P. M. and at dark to investigate the con-
ditions, Mrs. Woolley added there was a sign saying the
park closes at sunset, but it has been taken down. Also,
at one time, there was a fence, but it was torn down with
the cars over a period of time.

Mr. deLong stated in order to comply with disposition of this

Mr. John Dance. Mr. Trauger seconded the motion. No discus-
sion. Motion carried 5-0.
NEW BUSINESS
Equipment in the Fire Department
Mr. deLong moved that the City Manager be instructed to submit
to the City Council a detailed report if there is any lack of
equipment in the Fire Department and the condition of the
equipment which exists. Some people are apprehensive about
the equipment we have. There is supposed to be some equip-
ment missing, etc. Included in the motion, he would also
like to have some input from the City Manager insofar as the
communication received from the Public Safety Department of
Ocean Ridge last November relative to a mutual agreement
between their department and our department including the
use of new equipment. He would like to have some informa-
tion on that to see where we are going. He thinks the City
Council should be apprised of all these types of communica-
tions because the lives of peoPle in this City depend upon
the Department of Public Safety. If we are shorthanded, we
should know befor~ giving priority to other items, Mr.
Trauger seconded the motion. No discussion. Motion carried
5-0.
Plaques on Buildings Constructed by the City
Mr. deLong referred to there being a set policy in the past
to put a plaque on every new building constructed in the
City and asked if this practice had been discontinued?
Mayor Harmening replied that to his knowledge, it had not.
The only change, which wasn't City Council policy, was that
the S.C.R.W.T.D. Board voted to dedicate a plaque without
any names. Mr. deLong referred to plaques being put on the
dog pound, library, etc. and stated in the past, every time
a bid was sent out, a plaque was included in the specifica-
tions for the contractor to supply and he thinks we should
revert back to that old system. Mr, Trauger commented that
one will be needed for the Royal Palm Clubhouse and Mr.
deLong agreed and added this is what brought it to his mind.
Mr. Trauger suggested instructing the City Manager to go
ahead and get the appropriate plaque and Mr. deLong agreed,
as long as the policy has not been abandoned.
Mr. deLong moved to continue with the previous policy of
placing plaques on all COnstructed public buildings in
Boynton Beach, seconded by Mr. Trauger, Mr. Cheney asked
if they wanted to catch up on old ones and Mr. deLong re-
plied affirmatively as he believes the people in office
deserve recognition. Motion carried 5-0.

ADMINISTRATIVE
Report on Firing Range
(Tabled)
Mr. Cheney stated he can give a repOrt on the status and
direction in which we are going. Mr. Trauger moved to take
this from the table, seconded by Mr. Wright. Motion carried
5-0.
Mr. Cheney stated the last time we discussed this, it was
the results of communications back and forth between us and
the F.O~P. and the response of the F.O.P. at that time was
they would like to consider the solution to the firing range
would be for them to get out of it entirely and possibly the
answer would be for .us to bUy out what was already there and
buy out their lease. We would then go in as a City and have
a firing ranqe run by the City Police Department for the pub-
lic and not rely on the voluntary F.O.P. to do it. That is
still the position of the F.O.P. and their new officers. He
has met with the president. In the meantime, he has written
a letter to the City Attorney asking him to give a summary as
precise as possible as to what the various lease hold inter-
ests are on that piece of property. Once the City Attorney
does that, he will sit down with the F.O.P. and reach an
agreement what their lease hold interest is and what ours
is. At that point', if we still want to proceed, we may
agree on a price to buy them out but may need an appraisal.
At least, the appraisal will be based on what we agree on
they have. The next step is when we hear from the City
Attorney, we will meet with them again and proceed along the
way and hopefully will work out something reasonable.
Mr. deLong asked how-much of a lease do they have and Mr.
Cheney replied, that he thinks it is about fifteen years left
for about one acre. It used to be twelve acres, but was re-
duced to a little over one acre. Mr. deLong referred to them
paying nothing for the lease and Mr, Cheney clarified that
they want us to buy out the building they put there and the
lease hold interest of 15 years for that one acre of land.
He wants that defined what that is. Mayor Harmenin9 agreed
there should be something more definitive and Mr. Cheney
agreed and stated we cannot negotiate or talk about anything
until the property interests of both sides are defined.
Mr. deLong referred to being in a rough bind in dealing with
the taxpayers if we are going to have to pay to abrogate the
lease when they were granted this free and clear. Mr.
Cheney agreed this is part of the question as if they were
given something free and clear, they have less value than if
they had to buy something originally, but they have 15 years
-17-
MINUTES - REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA
MARCH 3, 1981
of using that free and clear which has some value. They have
a building which they built, the clubhouse part, and have the
use of the building which the City paid for, the concrete
shell. Obviously, they have 15 years use of that concrete
shell, but there is nothing in it. All those things affect
the value up and down. We want this identified by the City
Attorney.
Mr. deLong stated he would like to know just exactly how much
they are looking for in return from the City.
Mr. Trauger asked how much land in that area does the City
own and Mr. Cheney replied that he thinks it is about 12+
acres. Mr. Cheney added at one time, the F.O.P. leased all
12 acres and then we reduced the amount of land down to about
one acre and agreed to build the shell in the back which was
supposed to be a pistol range that they were going to help
with.
Mr. Trauger referred to possibly the American Legion getting
crowded by the Day Care Center and stated possibly they could
locate in this area.
Mr. deLong stated at one time, we did promise we would put up
an appropriate building for them and the money was available,
but somewhere along the line the administration in the past
washed it out. We were concerned about the building the
F.O.P. has in Delray Beach and we wanted to meet that stan-
dard so the members of the F.O.P. could hold their installa-
tions, etc. here, but it never came to pass. Along the line,
somebody scuttled the program. It would have been cheaper to
have done it at that time because we had the money.
Mr. Trauger moved to have the City Manager continue with
negotiations with the F.O.P. regarding the firing range
and building. Mr. deLong seconded the motion. No discus-
sion. Motion carried 5-0.
City Manager Report on MICA Studies (Tabled)
Mayor Harmening stated this will be left on the table until
the workshop meeting is held. Mr. Cheney suggested having
the workshop meeting on Thursday, March 19, at 7:00 P. M.
when all the members of the City Council will supposedly be
here and the members expressed agreement.
Consideration of City Hall Roofing Proposal & City Hall HVAC Study
!
Mr, cheney referred to money being budgeted fOr roofing and
advise~ when preparing the bids, the question came up about
what to do with the air conditioning units on the roof.
-18-
MINUTES - REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA
MARCH 3, 1981
Mr. Cheney continued that the initial thought was to put the
water tower on the ground and take the other compressor off
and do the roof and then put the compressor back. However,
when our people looked at this, there were some questions
about what we do have and how successful it is. It was
recognized that the old compressor is 25 years old and the
water tower is about 10 years old. Mr. Howell called in an
engineer in the HVAC system and asked what he thought. That
engineer has suggested the capacity of the air conditioning
is two to three times what we need if all is done right.
Probably the old duct work has fallen apart. It is produc-
ing more than needed. The question is what to do. The
recommendation is to employ this engineer to analyse the
whole system and patch the roof in the meantime and hope-
fully abandon the oldest air conditioning unit and move the
compressor off the roof probably between City Hall and the
Personnel Office. Possibly we could get rid of the two other
small units on the roof which have been added during the years
and hopefully save electricity. The option would be to take
the units off the roof, redo the roof and do some analysis
of energy and air conditioning in this building. Any tech-
nical questions, Mr. Howell can answer. This will delay a
project in which strong interest was indicated.
Mr. deLong referred to Mr. Howell's communication stating
that electrical invoices are approximately $1,000 to $2,000
per month in excess of what they should be and stated~ it
would appear an investment of $1,650 for an analysis would
be in order.
Mr. deLong moved to accept this recommendation to engage the
service of this engineer for an analysis and do temporary
repairing of the roof. Mr. Trauger seconded the motion.
Under discussion, Mayor Harmening referred to basically being
in accord and he thinks it would save money, but roofing
costs are related to energy costs. If energy is going up
this year as projected, it might be cheaper in the long run
as far as the roof to expedite this portion of the job and
get it done as soon as possible before the price of roofing
goes up. A flashing patch is only a temporary solution un-
til working out the details. Would it be possible to compress
the time estimated and get the roof replaced this year before
May 157 Mr. Howell informed him that the problem is there
are two huge units on the westerly portion of-the roof plus
there are some small units. He feels we can possibly delete
one of these units and get it off the roof and shade it for
more efficient operation. Also, there is probably some duct
work where the insulation has collapsed. At this time, we
don't know what we are talking about on the air conditioning
part.
-19-
MINUTES - REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA
MARCH 3, 1981
Mr. Cheney added when we do this, we may come out with addi-
tional capital costs. One of the other questions on this
roof is do we lower the ceiling, to save space and improve
the lighting, and put insulation on top of the ceiling or on
top of the roof? Mayor Harmening referred to having to change
the windows and Mr. Howell replied negatively as it could be
dropped 18 inches.
Mr. deLong reminded the Council that according to the commun-
ication, one-half of $1,650 could be appropriated from the
federal government and the consultant would file on behalf
of the City.
Mayor Harmening clarified that his concern is at the rate we
are going, we are going to be postponing the roof for a
consid~erable length of time and roofing costs are directly
proportionate to oil costs. If we postpone it too long,
roofing costs may go up considerably.
Mr. deLong referred to the recommendation to authorize an
expenditure of $777 for roof repairs and Mayor Harmening
agreed, but stated he would like to know if we could proceed
with this on a faster schedule than it appears from the
memo. Mr. Howell replied that in all fairness, it would
depend on getting the money for the air conditioning; this
needs to be considered first. Mayor Harmening agreed the
ultimate cost would have to be considered. Mr. Howell
added that he doesn't think the roofing costs will increase
that much as they are getting more into plastics every day
for roofing materials and getting away from oil and asphalt
base.
Mr. Wright asked if any quotes were received for the $42,000
and Mr. Cheney informed him this price was a product of
estimates with talking to roofing companies.
Mr. deLong included in his motion that the City Manager be
instructed to expedite the repair of the roof, seconded by
Mr. Trauger.
Mrs~. Woolley asked where the role of the Energy Coordinator
falls into this and Mr. Cheney informed her that this is a
highly technical engineering process to check this.
Mr. Wright asked if it is possible to burn fewer lights
-downstairs to cut down on utility costs and Mr. Cheney re-
plied the ceilings on the first floor could be lowered to
cut down lighting. A few years ago, the lighting on the
first floor was doubled as more lighting was needed for
office work. This resulted in more heat being created from
the lighting with more air conditioning needed.

Mr. Wright asked if the lights could be decreased in the
evenings and Mr. Cheney informed him that the lights left

put on time-clocks. They will not go on until 8:00 P. M.
and go off at 6:00 A. M.
Motion carried 5-0.
Review of Proposed Three Year Community Development Budget
for Neighborhood Strategy Area
Mr. Cheney stated as a product of the consultants' report
and all the Community Development questions, we have been
moving in the direCtion of identifying what projects should
be done and at what priorities. We have been working with
Community Development and others hoping the dollars will be
allocated somewhat in line with the needs identified. He
forwarded a report and distributed another report with
slight revisions. In moving into the various County advisory
committees making recommendations for funding, he wants to
be sure as a City we have input in the funding. The Day
Care Center has been listed as No. 1 plus other items listed
by the consultants. These have been divided into three years.
This is an increase in funding from the past. This attempts
to address expensive things like day care, rehabilitation and
the N. E. 10th Avenue project. There are two significant
meetings coming up, one on March 11, the Local Citizens
Input Advisory, and~ in April, there is a meeting in West Palm
Beach where the County-wide Community Development Advisory
Board makes recommendations for allocations in funding. Mr.
Green's department will put together a report based on that.
This goes onto the County Commission and proceeds onto
Atlanta. His recommendation is the Council either support
this funding proposal or make any amendments they see fit.
If the Council supports this, it would be helpful in the
funding process with the City Council taking a positive posi-
tion.
Mr. deLong asked if there is any particular rush on this and
Mr. Cheney replied it would be helpful if they would take
action before the March 11 meeting. Mr. deLong asked if
there was much difference between the two reports and Mr.
Cheney replied negatively, about $2,000 to $3,000 difference
with basically more money in code enforcement, since
basically we did not use the total cost of the code enforce-
ment person we have here from Community Development. Mr.
Trauger asked if it is still in the ballpark of $1,736,000
and Mr. Cheney replied affirmatively with $789,300 the first
year; $705,620 the second year; and $258,100 for the third
year.

Mr. Wright referred to the proposed budget for FY 1984 and
noted improvements to Wilson Park and stated at the last
City Council meeting, we gave the staff the go ahead to make
the necessary improvements at Wilson Park with $35,000 from
the CitY and $35,000 from the County. Mr. Cheney agreed
this was correct, but this is an addition in this report
and has nothing to do with the $70,000.
Mr. deLong stated if these are the only changes made and the
City Council feels they want to go along with this, he does
not see any necessity to table this. He moves to approve,
seconded by Mr. Wright. No discussion. Motion carried 5-0.
Comprehensive Annual Financial Report
Mr. Cheney informed the Council that according to State Law,
they must make a formal acceptance of the annual audit.
Mr. deLong stated the only comment he has about this is the
communication which was received from Ernst & Whinney states
on the second page that this report is intended solely for the
use of management of the City and the State Auditor General
and should not be used for any other purpose. This communi-
cation outlined certain suggestions and he would like to know
if these suggestions are going to be implemented? Mr.
Cheney replied affirmatively, as much as feasible. Mr.
deLong requested to be apprised of those not feasible. Mr.
Trauger explained that the statement Mr. deLong referred to
is an accounting term as it is not submitted for everybody
to take apart and this is the auditor's protection. Mr.
deLong replied that he understands, but questioned how it
was made specific in the communication.
Mr, Trauger referred to going through this report in great
detail and stated it is an exceptionally fine report and
particularly M~ Swann's operation did a g~ job putting
this together, He feels it has been worth the cost to pay
a b±g e±ght firm to prepare this, It will be good to enter
into competition for another award for o~tstanding fiscal
services,
Mr, Trauger moved that the City Council accept the Compre-
hensive Annual Financial Report dated Septen~ber 30, 1R80,
Mr. deLong seconded the motion. Under discussion, 'Mr,
deLong added that in the past, we have received a national
award and the s~stem is still in effect; however, ke is con-
cerned with the ±mplementation of the suggestions,
Wright added that he is concerned about them too and has
