Mayor Zack asked if anyone wished to speak in favor of this
ordinance.
Mr. David Roberts appeared before the Council spe~ng in
favor of Ordinance No. 77-3.~ He referred to it being

gave
rescinded a year ago and also/quotations in the paper in re-
ference to the central file. He cannot understand why any
honest person would object to this ordinance. He referred
to this falling Back on Chapter 119 of the Florida StatUtes.
Mr. Roberts, who was Mayor in 1975, then read one paragraph
of Chapter 119 which wa~ omitted by Mayor Zack during discus-
sion on first reading of Ordinance 77-3 designating a custo-
dia~ of the records. He asked who is the custodian of the
City Council and City Manager's mail.* Mayor Zack replie~
that there was no questiom about this as it is the City Clerk.
Mr. Roberts clarified that the City Clerk will be responsible
for all mail that comes in and Mr. Kohl agreed.
Mr~ Roberts continued, referring to the public record~ Being
open to the citimens. He has come acros~ some evidence, which
he proposes to present to this Council, so possibly they may
see it his way and without hesitation pass this ordinance be-
cause he thinks they will agree that any mail that comes in
should be delivered to the presiding Mayer no matter wha~
Mayor's name is on it. He referred to a letter from the
Attorney General in 1973 referring to public records. He
told how some records had been withheld and referred to the
Florida criminal code.
Mr. Roberts then referred to 1974 and told about the former
~yor withholding records and holding a meeting with no min-
utes. In 1975 as Vice Mayor, he had an office set up in the
personnel office, had a secretary and conducted City business.
No records were turned in at the end of his term as Vice Mayor.
Last month he completed his term as Mayor and no records were
turned in. In fact, he instructed his secretary not to turn
them in. Mr. Roberts said he came in to pay a bill and dis-
covered the records that had just been turned in. However,
records were recov.ered as many were aware of his previous ac-
tivities. He then showed the Council members the file turned
in £rom 1975. He referred to a letter in the file dated Dec-
ember from an attorney with an offer to work at a certa~u
salary with a contract and this was received before the previ-
ous. City Attorney had been dismissed. In addition, there are
letters going to various departments in regards to the Christ-
mas parade complimenting the City .Manager mhd then an investi-
gation was requested for the same thing recently. These parti-
cular records were hidden and this is contrary to law. He
thinks, continued Mr. Roberts, it is incumbent upon the present
Council to review these things. He requests the Council to ask
the City Attorney to look at them and form an opinion to see if
an investigation should be requested. There is mail addressed
to different departments and he doesn't know how former Mayor
DeLong got ahold of them. There were complaints registered.
He used a particular section of personnel with m secretary and
also conducted personal business. He is in favor of this
ordinance so things like this won't happen again. He camnot
u~derstand why it was voted down. They should have this ordi-
nance in case they get another character in there with the same

Mr. Galdwell stressed the importance of everyone ~i~g to the
polls to vote and also to bring their neighbors wmth them.
If a letter of this type alienates them, they have nobody to
blame but themselves. They have the power to control the
people they elect. Time:and again, year iafter year, it seems
like people tend to elect someone and find out too late, he
is not the mas theythought he would be. If this is the type
of correspondence~ the2 are prou~ of having in the records
of Boymton Beach, they should vote for this type of individual
again. Everyone should get involved and vote independently.

~. Moore referred to the Rimker suit attempting to transfer
eir location and advised that the Appellate Cour, t had j~st
recently reversed the decision of the ~rial Court. He re
ceived a letter from the attorney for Rinker this afternoon
and he will review it and submit a report to the Council.
Mr. Moore informed~k~m that the~ Case was settled and was
handled by Mr. Simon regarding the sewer problem.
Mr. Moore informed them there was a small claims court matter
an~ we collected money for a water hill. ~There was a suit
inv olving a police car and a citizen, which has been resolved
and dismissed. There was another claim ia County Court for
a $200 water bill and he believes it was made.
Mr. Moore informed them that the Normam Michaels case was
set for February 25 and he told about discussing this with
the City Plamner. He plans to have further discussion with
the City Planner so they can produce evidence showing there
is no discretion.
Mr. Moore added that he wo~ld also discuss the Rinker matter
with the City Planner, as it is very complicated. If there
is over $~,O00,000 in damages, Rinker will probably be awarded
b~ the State Road Department if their case is annituilated.
They were entitled to business interuptiom when the highway
went through the plant and if they are totally phased out,
there would be damages for total destruction and profits
over the years. The $1,000,000 would be additional compen-
sation paid by the State of Florida. This will mot be deter-
mined until they fdhd out if they cam move across the tracks.

Water Treatment Plant No. 7 Well
On January 10, 1977 due to loss of flow, No. 7 pump was re=
moved and found to have worn out shaft, column pipe, pump and
bearings. This is a Layne and Bowler pump. Replacement.parts
are available from Layne Bowler or Go~lds, ~ut Deming will not
fit without changing the discharge head and piping.
Price quotations are as follows, and I recommend replacement
with Goulds' pa~ts:

Goulds
$2,483.00 (3 to 4'weeks)
Request permisbion to order the Goulds pump.

Director of utilities p~p (Go. ids)
Attached is a copy of a memorandum from Melvin Colgin requesting
approval to order one (I) Goulds pump to replace a worn out pump
on Well ~o. 7.
Money is available under account 030-810-34 and we are asking that
you secure approval frem the City Council for this expenditure of
$2,483.00.
This is not an emergency at this time; but, I do not want ~ny un-
due delays. By the time we receive this and install it, we will
be getting into the high flow season and may need this well.

~Golfv±ew~arbor
Section 2
You may or may not know that a p. ortion of the sewerage collection
system in Golfview PI~rbor. Section 2, was never installed. As a
result, there are 42 lots which are unable to connect into the
City sewage system.
Of these 42 lots. 13 already have homes built upon them and ha~e
septic tar~s. It would seem to me that some way or other under
City ordinance, we should be able to install the sewer lines and
assist these 42 lots on a front-foot basis, so that this area is
sewered and we don't continue to add septic tanks in the City.
The attached is not an engineering drawing, but does have all the
basics showing ~he lots which can be served and those which have
homes on ~hemand also shows an estimated cost of approximately
$33,000 to install this system.
I feel that it would be adviseable at some early date to get
together with you and Tom clark and discuss the possibilities
of executing this project.
