Officers Eric Reynolds and Christopher Munro On June 12, 2012, Officer Eric Reynolds spotted a vehicle matching the description of a car used to flee an armed bank robbery in Delray Beach. Officer Reynolds attempted to stop the vehicle by activating his emergency equipment to conduct an investigative stop, but the vehicle refused to yield and continued its attempt to elude police. Officer Christopher Munro joined the pursuit as the suspect vehicle continued at a high rate of speed, hitting several citizens’ vehicles before crashing into an elderly woman’s car. The suspect reached out from the partially opened driver’s door and fired at officers. Officer Reynolds and Officer Munro returned fire, striking the suspect several times. Officer Reynolds was struck by the suspect’s gunfire in left foot. The suspect died at the scene. For their heroic actions, both officers received the Boynton Police Department’s Combat Cross Medal. Officer Reynolds received the department’s Wound Medal. Reynolds and Munro were chosen as the February 2013 Officers of the Month by the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund. 14 of 115 Detective Brian Anderson From receiving a grand jury indictment against the suspect in a double homicide to making an airtight case against three dangerous criminals who terrorized people at a Dunkin’ Donuts, Brian Anderson proved in 2012 that he is a sharp detective with unquestionable judgment and outstanding integrity. His stellar year began on Dec. 30, 2011 when he was assigned lead detective for a double homicide on Old Boynton Road. He worked tirelessly with federal, state, and local agencies sifting through phone records and physical evidence throughout the spring of 2012. His persistence paid off and he received a grand jury indictment in the case. In March 2012, Anderson established probable cause to arrest the documented gang member who intentionally shot another man. In May 2012, his investigative work led to the arrest of three criminals who terrorized the employees and patrons of a local Dunkin’ Donuts. In August 2012, Anderson connected suspects in a bank robbery to the brutal knife assault and robbery of a cab driver. And at year’s end, he connected video from an armed robbery where shots were fired to a traffic stop with the suspect. This ultimately led to a confession and arrest. “He is a skilled and proficient interrogator, and when assigned an investigation, there is no doubt it will be worked tirelessly and effectively,” his supervisor, Detective First Grade Christopher Crawford, said. Barbara Scott There is one thing you can be sure of when you enter the administrative wing of the Boynton Beach Police Department – Barbara Scott will be there to assist you. Barbara has been a staple in the administrative wing of the police department since her hiring in 1999. As an administrative associate, she is responsible for maintaining all employee files, preparing correspondences, answering calls from the community for command staff, and so much more. She sits on the Boynton Beach Safety Advisory Committee and is responsible for getting our payroll submitted to finance on time. Most importantly, she is always there to lend a helping hand. “If I had to describe her in one word, I’d say reliable,” Major Frank Briganti said. “Her efforts and dedication far surpass any single task or accomplishment.” H?

They are what draws people to the City and what are savored in memory. With its Art in Public Places program, the City of Boynton Beach recognized that by nurturing its arts and culture in choosing its future, the City could reach its full potential as an artistic and cultural center in the region, the nation and the world. Prior to her becoming the City’s Art in Public Places Administrator, following enactment of the Art in Public Places Ordinance in 2005, Debby Coles-Dobay had devoted two years of volunteer time to guiding the program’s implementation. Serving as liaison to the Arts Commission, City and Community Redevelopment Agency staff, developers, planners, architects, artists, design professionals and the general public, Debby facilitated nine development and 11 City/CRA projects, as well as the annual Avenue of the Arts program. She also coordinates a series of rotating exhibits in City facilities and developed the Swing Space program, which places artwork on exhibit in vacant store fronts of shopping plazas. One of Debby’s greatest achievements was the 2013 Kinetic Art Exhibition and Symposium held in Boynton Beach February 8-10, which attracted more than 2,000 people to the City, including artists not in the exhibit, who traveled on their own to Boynton Beach to learn more about kinetic art and speak to the kinetic artists in the exhibit. Using a Skype video feed, students a half-a- world away in Nicosia, Cyprus, had the opportunity to view some of the 16 outdoor sculptures and 60 indoor exhibits on display. Not only did the event focus worldwide attention on Boynton Beach, but it also provided economic benefit for the City’s business community. It is fitting and appropriate, therefore, that the City of Boynton Beach recognizes with this Citation Debby Coles-Dobay for her many contributions that have enabled the City to serve the ennobling needs of its citizens by inspiring the quality of their lives. In Witness Whereof , I have hereunto set my hand and have caused the Official Seal of the City th of Boynton Beach to be affixed the 5 day of March 2013. _____________________________ Woodrow L.

Transfers from other funds (non- revenues) provide $16.6 M or 25% of the total funding sources to balance our $68.8 M General Fund budgeted expenditures. These three major estimated funding sources are summarized as follows: 1. 35% - $ 23.6 M – Property taxes less Tax Increment Financing to the CRA 2. 40% - $ 28.6 M – All other revenues plus General Fund Balance 3._25% - $ 16.6 M – Transfers from other funds 100% - $ 68.8 M – Total funding sources The property tax rate for FY 2012-13 was increased from 7.1941 mills to 7.6000 mills; the net property taxes of $27.0 M in FY 2012-13 represent a 5.6% increase in property tax revenue or a increase of $.7 M from FY 2011-12. To balance the budget in FY 2012-13, it required transfers from other funds of $16.6 M representing 25% of all funding sources. Actual Funding Sources Realized: At the end of the fourth month in FY 2012-13, revenues and transfers realized are approximately $37.3 M or 54% of the budget estimate compared to $33.8 M or 52% realized to date in FY 2011-12. Ad Valorem Taxes, net of discounts and TIF taxes to the CRA , received to date was $19.1 M as compared to $18.4 M for FY 2011-12, as noted on Exhibit A. Other Revenues: The four major revenue sources other than property taxes: Franchise Fees 1. realized was $1.5 M or 34% actual collected compared to approximately $1.6 M or 35% in FY 2011-12. Business Taxes 2. are due at the beginning of the fiscal year. For FY 2012-13, $1.2 M or 92% has been collected which is almost equivalent to the FY 2011-12 amount. State Shared revenues 3. of $1.7 M have been collected in FY2012-13 as compared to $2.0 M received in FY 2011-12. Public Safety revenues 4. at this point is on track with the budgeted amount; $1.43 M 23 of 115 or 38% was received compared to a similar amount of $1.39 M or 35% for FY 2011-12. Transfers From Other Funds: Current practice is to transfer 1/12 of the budgeted transfers from other funds each month. This will result in 100% realization of this funding source for the year. Expenditures (Exhibit B) Budgeted Expenditures: Overall, appropriations increased approximately 5.7% from $65.1 M to $68.8 M. The increase impacted all departments due to increased pension and health care cost. Actual Expenditures – General Fund expenditures for the four month period ending January 31 (33% of the fiscal year) are $28.8 M that is 42% of the $68.8 M expenditure appropriation for FY 2012-13. The table at the top of Exhibit B displays actual expenditures of $ 28.8 M or 42% of the FY 2012-13 budget. At 42%, we are ahead of spending levels compared to the $26.6 M or 41% actual spending levels in FY 2011-12 for this same period. This is due to the increase in the City’s pension obligation for FY 2012-13. UTILITY FUND The FY 2012-13 annual expenditure budget of $36.7 M represents a $.7 M decrease from the FY 2011-12 budget of $37.4 M. The operational forecast may yield an estimated $2.2 M fund balance increase for the year based on the budget. For the four month period in FY 2012-13,  Revenues realized are $12.4 M (34%) of the annual budget estimate.  Expenditures incurred are $13.1 M (36%) of the annual appropriated budget. This results in a shortfall of expenditures over revenues of approximately $ 725 K.

Revenues (Exhibit C) - The $12.4 M in FY 2012-13 actual revenues and fund balance increase are on target similarity to the $12.4 M to date in FY 2011-12, because of two factors: 24 of 115  Water Sales - $6.1 M equivalent to 34% of the annual estimate, compared to $5.9 M (32%) at this point in FY 2011-12.  In FY 2012-13, $ 2.2 M is being recognized as an added increase to fund balance, compared to an added increase of $ 1.7 M in FY 2011-12. These factors should provide for adequate bond debt service coverage. Expenditures (Exhibit D) – Utility Fund FY 2012-13 expenditures to date are $13.1 M or 36% of the annual appropriation compared to expenditures of $10.78 M or 29% for the prior fiscal year. The increase is due to a budgeted transfer to the Utility Renewal/Replacement capital fund and the increase in the City’s pension obligation that is attributable to the Utility Fund.

The City has already received large retroactive credits and ongoing reductions by:  Eliminating some phone lines,  Replacing expensive solutions with lower cost options, and  Reducing rates by implementing longer-term agreements in lieu of month-to- month bills The City has been using Windstream (formerly Paetec) for most of our long distance service. Their long distance circuit has proven to be less expensive than other carriers, and allows us to bundle the long distance service associated with other 1FB circuits (remote location’s fax, alarm, and elevator lines) into one consolidated monthly bill. After surveying several long distance carriers, we have estimated that this agreement with Windstream will afford us better prices than those of other carriers. The attached Windstream Service Agreement allows us to lock in a base rate of $392 per month (plus 30 of 115 taxes and usage fees). We are currently paying a base rate of $856 per month for the same circuit (not including taxes and usage fees). We expect to save approximately $8,000 annually by moving forward with this Windstream Service Agreement. H? Windstream’s dedicated phone- OW WILL THIS AFFECT CITY PROGRAMS OR SERVICES lines are already installed and connected to City phone switches. This agreement requires no new work; it will simply place us under a long-term agreement and lower our operating costs. FI: The City already has a blanket P.O. for FY 2012-2013 to pay ISCAL MPACT Windstream (Paetec) for both a dedicated trunk-line and long distance calls. This proposed Agreement will lock-in long distance rates for three years, and thereby lower the City’s long distance expenses by approximately $8,000 per year. Funding is provided in 001-1510-513-41-10. A: LTERNATIVES  Remain with Windstream’s month-to-month version of the current long distance calling plan. This will prevent us from qualifying for their discounted rate and cost us more in the long run for the same services.  Switch to another long distance carrier. However, this option would entail considerable installation and configuration work for both internal staff as well as both carriers. This too will likely involve an increase in operating costs. 31 of 115 RESOLUTION R13- A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA, APPROVING AND AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER AND CITY CLERK TO EXECUTE A THIRTY-SIX (36) MONTH SERVICE AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY OF BOYNTON BEACH AND PAETEC, A WINDSTREAM COMPANY FOR LONG DISTANCE TELEPHONE SERVICE USING GSA #GS-35F-0016T IN THE AMOUNT OF $4,704 PER YEAR; AND PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE.

R13-023 - EQUESTED CTION BY ITY OMMISSION Approve Subordination Agreement allowing for a subordinaton of the City's SHIP Mortgage for th Marty Duncan of 719 N.W. 7 Street, Boynton Beach, Florida, 33426 and authorizing the City Manager to execute the Subordination Agreement. EXPLANATION OF REQUEST: Subordination is, by definition, the acceptance by a lender in first position on a mortgage, of new charges, claims or mortgages on a given property. In subordination the original lender looses its first, or priority, position on the property and becomes subordinate to the new charge, claim or mortgage. In this case, Mr. Duncan purchased a home through the SHIP program in 2007; his current mortgage was financed in December 31, 2007, with National City Mortgage for 129,600 at 6.20% maturing January 1, 2038. Mr. Duncan wants to refinance his home with Home Affordable Refinance Program (HARP) to a current 30 year, conventional mortgage for $117,300, at 3.875%. In doing so, he will reduce his monthly payments by $242.20. HOW WILL THIS AFFECT CITY PROGRAMS OR SERVICES: There is no affect to city programs or services; Mr. Duncan is merely taking advantage of a federal program designed to assist responsible homeowners that have found themselves underwater in their current mortgage[s], and looking for financial relief. FISCAL IMPACT: There is no fiscal impact, as the City would still maintain its initial SHIP investment in the project of $33,200.00. ALTERNATIVES: Not to subordinate the mortgage. 45 of 115 46 of 115 RESOLUTION NO.

Applicant: Michael Owens, School District of Palm Beach County. NATURE OF REQUEST Michael Owens of the School District of Palm Beach County, is requesting to abandon a portion of Galaxy Way in conjunction with the modernization of Galaxy Elementary School. The subject property is classified PPGI (Public & Private Governmental/Institutional) land use and zoned PU (Public Usage). The school is located at the NE corner of Boynton Beach Boulevard and Interstate 95 (see Exhibit “A” – Location Map). The 35 foot wide portion of the street right-of-way to be abandoned runs in a north-south direction for a distance of approximately 430 feet, near the center of the school site. A sketch and legal description of the subject right-of-way is attached as Exhibit “B”. The applicant indicates that this portion of the street right-of-way is being vacated due to the modernization of the school which would place the building footprint in the right-of-way (see Exhibit “C” – New Galaxy Elementary School Site Plan). The site and building layouts were previously approved by the City, recognizing the need for the School District to subsequently make formal application for abandonment. The School District has received all utility authorizations for the requested abandonment and is now ready to complete the City’s process. The following is a description of the zoning districts and land uses of the properties that surround the subject request: North: To the NW is a City-owned park and to the NE are the single-family residential subdivisions of Ridgewood Manor and Ridgewood Hills; South: School property and farther south is right-of-way of Boynton Beach Boulevard; 107 of 115 East: School property and farther east is the single-family residential subdivision of Ridgewood Hills; and West: School property and farther west is right-of-way of Interstate 95. BACKGROUND Galaxy Way is a street that was deeded to the City through a quitclaim deed by the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) in 2010. The street was part of land acquired by the State for state highway purposes. FDOT determined the land was no longer required for such purposes and deeded the land to the City and its assigns for public purposes and to provide access to adjacent public properties. The portion of Galaxy Way requested to be abandoned is fully encompassed within the school property and serves only the school. The City entered into an interlocal agreement with the School District of Palm Beach County, in which the City agreed to process a request for abandonment of this segment of Galaxy Way to facilitate the modernization of Galaxy Elementary School, as it was understood the redesign of the site would place the school building directly over the street right-of-way. As such, the subject request is essentially a housekeeping matter to formalize and closeout the abandonment of that portion of the right-of-way needed for the school project, and which no longer serves a public purpose. ANALYSIS Owners of properties within 400 feet of the subject site were mailed a notice of this request and its respective hearing dates. The applicant has certified that they posted signage and mailed notices in accordance with Ordinance No. 04-007 and the abandonment request has been advertised in the newspaper. A summary of the responses is as follows: CITY DEPARTMENTS/DIVISIONS Engineering No objection Public Works/Utilities No objection Planning and Zoning No objection PUBLIC UTILITY COMPANIES Florida Power and Light No objection AT & T No objection Florida Public Utilities No objection Comcast No objection RECOMMENDATION Staff has determined that the abandonment of the subject portion of Galaxy Way is required to facilitate the approved modernization of Galaxy Elementary. Based on the above analysis and the fact that this portion of the right-of-way no longer serves a public purpose, staff recommends APPROVAL of the applicant’s requested abandonment. Any conditions required by the Planning and Development Board and the Commission will be placed in Exhibit “D” - Conditions of Approval.
