PUBLIC AUDIENCE, cont ~d~
Eddie Mitchell~ 529 N. E. !2th Ave. ~ asked for a progress report on !0th
Avenue. Mr. Jones stated that he has been absent from his office since
the CouncilTs last meeting. The County was going to give us an aerial
photograph~ but we have not yet received it. There has been no pro,tess
since the last meeting~ but that it was one of the highest priority items
as far as he was concerned.
R. B. Vastine wished to speak on Item D Old Business.
Mr. Vastine expressed the appreciation of many people to Mayor Wallace
for the service he has rendered to Boynton Beach in a very honest manner.
Also to Firs. Jackson for what she has been able to accomplish. He eon-
gratulated Mr. Jones for the job he has done as City Manager: his dediea-
tion~ integrity and honesty.
He stated also that he had heard by rumor: a possibility of hiring a new
City Manager~ this is very distressing news. To hear the name of any one
else for the position would mean that some collusion has taken place
prior to this meeting this eveninG~ trusts that no action taken here this
evening will point to collusion.
Mr. Beyrer then asked to speak on Item B Legal, Items D and E~ Old Busi-
ness.
Y~.. Beyrer also expressed: h~s views on the Rules of Order. He stated
that as long as he has studied Roberts Rules of Order, the only time a
person could discuss an item was after a motion was made and seconded.
Mr. Beyrer then urged Council to take definite court action against the
high rise court suit. He and his organization feel there should be no
high rises in Boynton Beach. Take definite court action and make no
compromises. He offered the backing of his organization if needed.
Mr. O. T. McLean read a letter he had sent to Mr. Effron~ dated December
24, 1971: referring to conflict of interest: asking him to disclose a
list of his clients.

Request of Jr. Women's Club

place a truck in the City Hall parking lot on the third weeker~ of Decem-
ber for the purpose of collecting newspapers. Now they want to do this
on the third weekend of every month. Mr. Jones recommended this for at
least 3 or 4 months on a trial basis.
Mrs. Jackson moved to accept the City Manager's recommendation, seconded
by Mr. Effron. Motion carried 5-0.
Drexel Properties Annexation Request - Mr. Archie
Mr. Arehie explained that this was to come up at the January 18th meet-
ing, but since there was some interest expressed in this he felt it
should be brought up tonight. He stated that he was originally in favor
of total annexation. Since then he has heard remarks opposing the
annexation because of having to give services to this area. It looks
like there is going to be objections. He can see the assets of bringing
in a large tract such as this, but more important is the safety ~actor.
Mr. Vastine ~ead from Boynton Beach Charter the procedure to be followed
when annexing new territory, so that the citizens would be aware of it.
He again urged Council to t~e a good hard look at this. Everyone
knows what happened in I~isurevi!la, we don't want it to happen again.
Robert Beyrer stated that he moved into Boynton because it was a nice
residential community. There is not enough water ~or the citizens of
Boynton Beach. This is something most of this town is opposed to. He
fe~ls this matter should be placed before the people by referendum.
Mr. Archie moved to deny the request of Drexel Properties for annexation
and also to deny the services of sewer and water to the area, and in-
struct the City Manager to write a letter informing them of the decision,
seconded byMrs. Jackson.
Discussion followed and Mayor Wallace stated they would come into the
area one way or another.
Motion carried 5-0.

Reconsideration of Comprehensive Plan - Mr. Archie
Mr. Archie brought this up at this time because he had talked to Dr. Ra-
born about Federal 9~ants, and since then he has checked it out himself,
and finds there are too many strings attached by the Federal government.
M~. A~chie moved to ~eeonsider acceptance of the Federal ~rant: seconded
by Fir. Ef~ron. Motion carried 5-2. M~s. Jaokson and Fir. Wallace voted
~;no~ .
~. Archie moved that the City not sign the Federal g~ant for Planning,
seconded by Mr. Effron.
Mr. Jones asked what it is in the agreement ~hat is being objected to.
Mr. Archie stated that it seems that the Federal government would tell
the City how to do things, and who to put on the boards.
Mr. Largent stated he did not know where Dr. Raborn got his ir~ormation
but ~ has been a planner for 20 yea~s, and has never had the government
tie ~uny strings to him. The Federal govemnment never tells you how to
do it~ or asks any questions after it is done.
Since the Council would be interviewin~ five firms Tuesday afternoon it
was suggested that this be brought up at that time.
Mr. Archie moved to table this until the Workshop meeting~ seconded by

n~nt. He is a fine man: whom he lilies as an individual. In hiring other
