BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA
AUGUST 7, 1979
~. Keith Dennis, 1165 S.W. 27th Place, a clergyman, spoke. He
has been living there for 12 months, ms a homeowner. He was
unaware in the beginning that he was hooked up to a septic tank,
and not to the City sewer. Then in October or September of last
year, they were informed by the City they should hook up to the
City's sewer at a cost of $250 or $260. The septic tank has
overflowed three times and at the present time is overflowing,
making it impossible to do any laundry or bathe.
Mr. Dennis took the matter to the City Manager, whose investigation
is not complete as yet, but Mr. Cheney Suggested Mr. Dennis put
the situation before the Council at this meeting.
Mr. Sullivan stated that Mr. Cheney is studying the situation.
Mr. Sullivan believes approximately 100 or 120 houses are affected
in this way.
It was brouqht out that a moratorium had been mn effect when some
of these houses were built and some others were connected to septic
tanks because a lift station was not built at that time.
Mrs. Riscoe queried the possibility of grandfathering in on the
old payment schedule.
Mr. Roberts stated he felt that a time limit should be imposed.
Mr. Trauger suggested the matter be deferred pending receipt of
a full report from the City Manager and Mr. Dennis should be informed
of the date when the matter will be considered by Council.
Mayor Harmening stated he felt that people not connected up who have
been living there for some period of time would not be charged the
new connection charge. He suggested Mr. Dennis request the hookup
from the Building Official pending determination of what the charge
should be.
Mr. Vance suggested the $250 required under the old schedule be
charged and Mr. Dennis be informed that the matter is still under
consideration and he might or might not be charged an additional
amount.
Mr. Simon Ryder, 2379 S.W. 13th Avenue, spoke about the action
regarding the City Attorney which took place at the meeting of
July 17th. He stated that, in view of the heavy workload re:
greatly diversified matters and litigation, even with the mncrease
requested by Mr. Vance, it would be to our advantage to continue
his services. He questions whether a change would result mn pos-
itive savings and urged Council to reconsider its previous action
and request his continuance for the balance of the year. (Applause)

BIDS
Installation of One (1) Trash Scow Body
Mr. Sullivan, Purchasing Agent,stated the Tabulation Committee
recommends acceptance of low bid from Advanced Fabricators, ad-iv.
~f Service Equipment Co., Inc., West Palm Beach, for the sum
of $3,603.00.
Mrs. Riscoe moved to accept the low bid of Advanced Fabricators
in the amount of $3,603.00. Motion seconded by Mr. Trauger. In
v!ew of the $~i~O difference between this bid and the next
highest bid, Mr. Strnad queried Mr. Sullivan as to whether this
bid covered the same type of truck. Mr. ~Sullivan stated it
covers the body only with the same construction, based on the
same specifications.
Mayor Harmening called for the vote. Motion carried 5-0.
Demolition Work (554 N.E. 22nd Ave., Royal Palm Clubhouse)
Mr. Sullivan reported that the Tabulation Committee recommends
acceptance of low bid from Cuyahoga Wrecking Corp. for the sum
of $2,440.00. This bid was based on Council action of May 1,
1979.
Mayor Harmening stated a strong suggestion was also made at that
time that the clubhouse should be immediately replaced and
questioned what had been done on this?
Mr. Sullivan pointed out that a proposed plan had been passed
out to Council just prior to meeting time this evening.
Mr. Trauger moved approval of the Cuyahoga Wrecking Corp. for
the demolition of the N.E. 22nd Avenue Clubhouse in the amount
of $2~440.00. Motion seconded by Mr. Strnad.
Mr. Roberts questioned why Cuyahoga did not submit an affidavit,
as is customary.
Mr. Sullivan said he would obtain the affidavit.
Mayor Harmening called for the vote. Motion carried 5-0.
Mayor Harmening stated perhaps it would be a good plan to hold
up on demolition until plans for construction are a little further
along.
During discussion probable cost figures of $55,000 to $65,000' was
mentioned for the replacement of the building as proposed~ which
includes parking lot but does not include central air. Venti-
lation and cooling system is proposed to be by overhead ceiling
fans. The building measures approximately 35' by 60' (about
$30 per square foot).

AUGUST 7, 1979
Mr. Howell clarified the estimate of $55,000 to $65,000 is
basedon restu&~ant type of construction, per their Evaluation
Sheet, and accordingly the Bacon Act would have a lot to do
with this. Mr. ~owel! expressed his thoughts that this adds
a great amount of paperwork for the contractor to do; so it
would be to the City's advantage if the City could fund the
project to do so without going through that Act.
Mr. Harmenlng suggested putting it on the Agenda for the next
Council meeting.
Discussion ensued asto the possibility of holding up the award
of t~e bid until construction plans were firm. Mr. Strnad
wants to discuss the air-conditioning in the new building when
appropriate.
Mr. Gene Moore, in the audience, suggested they searck the title
of this particular piece of property before spending tax payers
money. ~e thinks they will find it is dedicated road right-of-
way.
Mayo~ Harmening queried if Mr. Vance had checked the City's
title to the subject property?
Mr. Vance stated that he ~ad checked the City's title to the
22nd Avenue property. He didn't recall the results but they
did check it out.
Mr. Sullivan read a memo dated June 21st which states "I have
reviewed the plat and the building permit issued for the con-
struction of this clubhouse and. fi~d~that %he ~trueture~was
~imprope~l~ ~a~e~l~.u~on pu~ticl~ dedicated road right-ofiway.

to demolish this structure." Same was under signature of
Attorney Vance.

Mr. Vance stated it was publicly dedicated land.

16"J Request was made by developer at that time that, since that
would not directly benefit the developer that %he City bear that
portion of the oversizing and he believes, Mr. Annunziato stated
that under the new ordinance that would probably be the handling
of the matter .... the developer would go ahead and put it in and
get credit against the capital facilities cha~ge.
With respect to the Recreation Impact Type Fee, they agreed to
the amount set forth by the Recreation Director but requested
they be allowed to pay that at the time of drawing the building

Council instruct Mr. Sullivan to suggest to Mr. Cheney, City
Manager, to pursue all avenues on this subject with respect to
revenues, overhead protection from the weather etc. and report
back as promptly as possible. Mr. Sullivan stated the report
would be made at the next meeting. Mrs% Riscoe moved to table
this, seconded by Mr. Trauger. Motion carried 5-0.
Road Impact Fee
blt. Sullivan reported no report had been received from the County
Attorney who assured him the letter would be forth coming that
would hold the City of Boynton Beach harmless if any suit came
up as a~result of this action. It was brought out that this
matter will be discussed at a meeting scheduled for late August
between County officials and the Palm Beach County Municipal
League. Therefore, it was moved to table this until after

seconded by Mrs. Riscoe. Motion carried 5-0.
Reconsideration of Rollyson Aluminum, Inc. Site Development Plans.
Request of Councilman Strnad
Mr. Strnad commended the Boards on their recommendations on this
subject and stated he is not in favor of a road to this indus-
trial property being installed at the expense of the City's tax-
payers. He feels that at the time of the previous vote he did
not give this matter proper consideration because a person can-
not be denied use of his property if they conform to requirements
for which that property is to be used. He would like to recon-
sider it in the same form as it was presented to Council origi-
nally, and not with any changes. He requested discussion be
held with a view to reconsideration.
Mr. Bill Kearns agreed with Mr. Strnad re: denying use of prop-
erty to property owners. Stated they see the problem as being
that when the City annexed the property in the early 70's the
only access was through a residential unincorporated area in the
County. They ask the City and the developer to find some other
way to serve this area and to protect them from commercial traffic
along High Ridge Road.
The Mayor stated that he felt the southerly extension would be
built but he didn't know when.
Mr. Trauger moved to reconsider the action of the Council at the
previous meeting regarding the site development plan for
Rollyson Aluminum, Inc. Motion seconded by Mr. Strnad. Mayor
Harmening reviewed the differences in the thinking of the two
attornies for Rollyson Aluminum and stated that Mr. Reed had
agreed to everything except the development of High Ridge Road
south and now Mr. Moore does not agree with the requirement to
pave the private right-of-way.
MINUTES - REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA
AUGUST 7, 1979
Mr. Moore advised the Council that his client was not a
developer, not a sub-divider; simply a property owner endeav-
oring to put his property to its' highest and best use. Water
and sewer service is not available at this time. They are
perfectly willing to tie in when service is available°and pay
whatever is due at that time. They are meeting all requirements
of the Fire Marshall. To be required to pave a portion of High
Ridge Road is considered to be totally unreasonable. He has
no control over the private road and has no right to pave that.
Mr. Moore requested the building permit be issued.
Mr. Hess, resident of High Ridge Road, spoke against approval
of this project.
Mr. Strnad questioned the change in the plans since the last
meeting. Mr. Vance reiterated that this was not a subdivision
and he felt the water and sewer problem would be taken care of
under our existing Ordinances.

User Charge - Wastewater System Ordinance
Mayor Harmening referred to every member of Council having had the
opportunity to review the so called 50% draft version of the
proposed user charge and industrial cost recovery system Ordinance.
Once this proposed ordinance is approved in concept, it will be
forwarded to DER and EPA. Mr. Milt Hallman of Russell & Axon,
stated this was a concept of the basic outline of what the City

proposes to do an establishing the method which the City is
using. We are on the fixture unit basis and many Cities
have run into difficulties on this system but we hope this
concept will be satisfactory to them. Basically, you are
agreeing to keep separate accounts on the water and the sewer.
Secondly, you are establishing a user charge system for the
residential customers based on fixture unit basis and you are
agreeing to annually inspect and update your fixture unit count,
adjusting rates accordingly. The commercial, wholesale and
industrial will be based on metered water. Separate meters
will be available if deemed advisable.
Mr. Roberts asked if we had arrived at a final figure. Mr.
Hallman stated this was not necessary at this time. He requested
input from the men~ers of Council as time was of the essence in
submitting this proposal.
Mr. Trauger moved to accept the draft version of the User
Charge - Wastewater System Ordinance and forward to DER & EPA
Mr. Roberts seconded the motion. Motion carried 5-0.

Bill Sullivan read the following memorandum from Mro Cheney~
"In response to a request by the City Council, a plan for the
extension of b~keway facilities has been prepared and is
attached to this memorandum.
This plan addresses a 26-miie system that uses a variety of
types of facilities and includes a little over three miles of
construction to be funded~.fifty per.cent by the City and fifty
per cent by the County. In addition, the plan proposes the
purchase and installation of a finding system on the ~ntire ~
bikeway proposal, which is aimed at assisting citizens to unaer-
stand the routes of the bikeway!"-~after which Mr. Frederick, with
the assistance of Fir. Graybeel, reviewed the highlights of the

Extension of Water Services to Jamaica Bay.
Mr. Cheney suggested the following for Council consideration in
his Agenda memo:
That this project be served by extending a 20" water
line from the end of the current line on Military
Trail at Mirror Lakes to the northern property line
of Jamaica Bay. Since the ultimate potential number
of units in the Jamaica Bay development that may be
served by this line is 1,000 units, it is felt that
Js/uaica Bay's requirement should be for a 12" trans-
mission line, and that the difference in the cost
between the 12" line and the Master Plan required
20" line would be the overslzing. Jamaica BaY's
capital facility charge can go towards this over-
sized pipe and may cover all of that cost.
e
That the City Council authorize the City Manager to
enter into an agreement with Russell & Axon to design
a 20" line upon the receipt of the required 15% (of
estimated construction).
It is recommended that the Council agree that it will
authorize Jamaica Bay to proceed with the water connec-
tion without having a sewer connection, since Jamaica
Bay has an on site treatment plant that meets the
requirements of the County Health Department.
~. Joe Swan of Russell & Axon referred to the Feasibility Study
prepared for Jamaica Bay and shared with the City Manager and
staff. He pointed out that subject study was prepared prior
to adoption of the new Ordinance and it did not cover reference
to oversizing of pipes. He estimated the cost of extending a
20" line from Mirror Lakes northward to Jamaica Bay to be
about $135,000 including Engineering and contingencies; the
developers share would be about 70% ($95,000) and the City's
share about 30% ($40,000).
Mr. Roberts questioned the City's ability to service this area.
Mr. Swan stated that a loop' system is certainly preferred over
a dead-end line and this would come in due time. He mentioned
the possibility of an"In~line booster" if sa~e became necessary.
Mr. Trauger made a motion to approve the extension of water
service to Jamaica Bay in accordance with the memorandum of
August 7th. Motion seconded by 5~s. Riscoe and carried 5-0.
