XPLANATION OF EQUEST
TUESDAY NIGHT’S MEETING. WE ARE CURRENTLY IN DISCUSSIONS WITH ATS.
The City entered into an Agreement with ATS on August 3, 2009 to implement a red light
camera enforcement program in the City pursuant to City Ordinance 08-034. On September 16,
2010, the City and ATS amended the Agreement (the “First Amendment”).
On December 18, 2012 the City and ATS amended the Agreement (the “Second Amendment”)
to place cameras at five (5) additional approaches.
On June 18, 2013 the City Commission adopted Ordinance No. 13-019 establishing the City’s
local hearing process for Red Light Camera citations. This is a result of the Governor signing
Florida House Bill 7125 (“HB 7125”) which became effective July 1, 2013. The new legislation
requires the City to conduct hearings at the Notice of Violation (NOV) stage, which requires the
original Agreement between the City and ATS be amended in writing and duly executed by the
parties. The third amendment (attached) will incorporate the services that the City will require of
ATS to comply with the new legislation.
This amendment provides for the vendor

local hearings that are a result of the passage of HB 7125.

to be incurred by the vendor which in turn will be paid for by the City but has been accounted for
in the development of the City’s administrative fine of $85 that the Commission as previously
approved. The administrative fine is allowed under the HB7125 to recover the costs of the local
municipality holding the hearings.
The City Commission can elect not to enter into the Third Amendment.

Approve the second amendment to the Interlocal
EQUESTED CTION BY ITY OMMISSION
Agreement between Palm Beach County and the City of Boynton Beach for the purchase and
sale of Bulk Potable water.
ER:
The first amendment of the existing bulk water interlocal
XPLANATION OF EQUEST
agreement between the City and the County expires on December 31, 2013. The
second amendment, which replaces the first, will allow the City to maintain a permanent
capacity of 1 million gallons per day (MGD) of the County’s potable water system.
In December 2004 the City entered into a bulk water sale agreement with the County.
The initial term was for 5 years during which period the City could purchase a minimum
2 MGD, and a maximum 5 MGD, of potable water from the County. Due to its temporary
nature, no impact fee payment was required in that original agreement. In 2007 the
agreement was amended to reflect impact fee charges. The amendment (First
Amendment) required the City to maintain 2 MGD bulk capacity impact fee charges.
The charges comprised a one-time fee for permanent capacity of 1 MGD, and an
annual charge for 1 MGD temporary capacity. On December 31, 2013, the terms of the
first amendment are slated to terminate, with the only exception of the 1 MGD
permanent capacity agreement.
This second amendment will continue the permanent 1 MGD bulk potable water
agreement with the County, beyond the December 31, 2013 expiration date. It will also
establish a new emergency interconnect installation between the County and the City.

FI:
The City will accrue savings in bulk water purchase. The City will be

required to purchase only the water it needs, and up to the 1 MGD permanent bulk
capacity it already owns. Furthermore, since the City has already paid for the one-time
impact fees, the County will assess only the commodity fees.

for emergency purchase order #130863 to Intercounty Engineering, Inc. for repairs to the wet

ER:
On Thursday May 30, 2013 the terminal gravity line feeding
XPLANATION OF EQUEST
Lift Station 309 failed catastrophically. This Lift Station is the master pumping station
handling all of the wastewater in an area north of the Boynton Canal and east of I95.
Failure to keep the station operational would severely impact every property within that
area. Utility crews responded to the area and implemented an emergency by-pass while
evaluation of possible repair methods was underway. Three companies specializing in
this work were approached for quotes and Intercounty Engineering was the lowest,
most responsive bidder. The original purchase order #130863 for $88,700 was
approved by the City Manager on an emergency basis and based on the quotes the
department received. Because of the nature and the resulting impact of the failure, it
was determined to issue the purchase order on an emergency basis versus advertising
a bid and delaying the needed repair.
Intercounty Engineering mobilized immediately and started work on the repair.
Subsequently it was discovered that the original by-pass plan needed to gain access to
the terminal manhole was not practical and a small revision to the work plan approved.
Later once the defective line was exposed a further problem was identified whereby the
failed pipe had been encapsulated in concrete at one end. The contractor had to spend
additional time removing this concrete before the repair could be completed. These two
issues caused an additional $46,410.59 worth of expense for unforeseen issues with
this emergency repair.
132 of 219
In order to address the failure of Lift Station 309 in a responsible manner the
Department requested and the City Manager approved this repair be done as an
emergency purchase.
This revised cost is still considerably below the next highest of the original quotes.
The pipe has now been replaced and the station back in full operation.

002) to construct a public parking lot on a 0.65-acre parcel located at 201 NE 1st Street in the
Multi-Family Residential (R-3) zoning district to support businesses and redevelopment efforts in
the immediate vicinity. Applicant: Vivian Brooks with Boynton Beach Community
Redevelopment Agency
ER:
Vivian Brooks, Executive Director of the Boynton Beach CRA is
XPLANATION OF EQUEST
seeking major site plan modification approval to construct a public off-street parking lot that
would accommodate 58 vehicles. According to Part III (LDR), Chapter 3, Article IV Use
Regulations, an off-street parking area (owned by the CRA) is considered “Government,
Municipal Office/Emergency/Civic Facilities” and is listed as a permitted use in the R-3 zoning
district.
The 0.645 acre rectangular-shaped site is located within the Ocean Avenue Overlay Zone and
the Ocean District Community Redevelopment Area. According to the survey, it is comprised of
four (4) lots with frontage on the west and south property lines (Northeast 1st Street and
Northeast 1st Avenue, respectively). The east property line abuts right-of-way for Northeast 2nd
Street; however, that portion of the roadway is only partially improved and is currently being
utilized as the vehicular back-up area for the (non-conforming) parking spaces of Millicent
Condominium. With respect to the north property line, the western 90 feet abuts commercially-
zoned property while the eastern one-half abuts an alley. This alley once extended from
Northeast 1st Street to Northeast 2nd Street, but the western 90 feet was abandoned in 1988
pursuant to Ordinance 88-BB.
The easternmost parcel (at the corner of Northeast 1st Street and Northeast 1st Avenue) was
once home to the historic Ruth Jones cottage. However, in 2011, the 1940s-era house was
151 of 219
moved from the subject property to its current location at 480 East Ocean Avenue to be used as
a restaurant (The Little House).
Unique conditions associated with individual sites may justify the review and approval of
alternate landscape designs that do not specifically comply with the landscaping requirements
of Part III (LDR), Chapter 4, Article II. A different design proposal may offer superior results or
maximum achievement of the City’s objectives that can only be accommodated through the
provision and requirements of alternate compliance. The proposed site design would deviate
from three (3) landscape code standards, which are listed as follows:
Section 4.B.2. Landscape Strip Abutting Rights-of-Way
In certain areas of the landscape strip along Northeast 1st Avenue, the tree spacing is
wider than the minimum required 20-25 feet.
Section 4.B.3 Perimeter Landscape Buffers
The entire length of the north landscape buffer would be less than the minimum five (5)
feet that is required.
The landscape plan lacks plant material within a small portion of the north landscape
buffer, due to the required pavement needed for the vehicular turn around area within
the parking area of the lot to the north.
Because of the requested deviations from the landscape standards, the applicant submitted an
alternate landscape plan (ALP) in accordance with Part III (LDR), Chapter 4, Article II, Section
5, and staff determined the ALP meets the purpose and intent of the regulations. Staff
determined the project would offer an alternate design that successfully mitigates the
deficiencies, while providing landscaping in a manner that is equal to or exceeds the minimum
required by code.
Staff has reviewed this request for Major Site Plan Modification and recommends approval of
the plans presented in the attachments, subject to satisfying all comments indicated in
Conditions of Approval - Exhibit “C.” The Planning & Development Board reviewed the subject
rd
request on July 23 and forwards it with a recommendation of approval, with the additional
comments that require 2 additional handicapped parking spaces be added to the plan, and that
no overnight parking be allowed.

Presented to City Commission on August 20, 2013
On behalf of the Economic Development Division of the City of Boynton Beach, please accept
this quarterly report providing updates on the Economic Development Initiatives and
Implementation Plan (EDIIP) for the period April 1, 2013 through June 30, 2013. This is the fifth
quarterly report that has been compiled for the Commission on progress made on the
implementation of the EDIIP since its approval in the fall of 2011.
To date, approximately 75% of the items within the EDIIP have been completed. A list of
completed initiatives is located under the green “Completed” section beginning on the next
page. Active items accomplished or underway during the reporting period are located in the
yellow “In Progress” section. “Pending” items are located in the blue section. The integrity of the
original numbering system from the approved EDIIP has been maintained to assist in
associating the various initiatives with Commission Agenda item references. Any new activity
reported for this period is also underlined to assist in identifying progress in specific categories
for this past quarter.
Highlights of this quarter’s activities include:
With financial assistance from Boynton Beach and Palm Beach County, Flipstone
Technology Group, Inc., a high tech software development company, purchased a
building in the High Ridge Industrial Park and is currently performing renovations.
Flipstone has also established a not-for-profit organization that will provide high-tech
software programs and robotics to students. This innovative endeavor will expand the
City of Boynton Beach’s technology-based workforce and encourage its youth to explore
high-tech local job opportunities.
Mathnasium of Boynton Beach, Inc. was approved for a grant under the Commercial
Rent Subsidy program. The company offers tutoring assistance for children from grades
2-12 in Boynton Beach.
Changes to land development regulations were approved by the Commission resulting in
the creation of a transit oriented development designation and minimum standards within
the mixed-use zoning district.
A more user-friendly fee structure was approved for capital facility and connection
charges. The changes will go into effect September 1, 2013.
A new Economic Development Manager was hired in mid-May.
The formation of new public/private partnerships was initiated with several entities,
including Enterprise Florida, the State of Florida’s main economic development
organization and Workforce Alliance, Inc.
A new economic development website for Boynton Beach is nearing completion to help
market Boynton Beach and to provide the latest economic development news to
residents and businesses.

Review draft of the City of Boynton Beach Special
EQUESTED CTION BY ITY OMMISSION
Event Economic Development Incentive Program Guidelines, Application and Evaluation Forms
for discussion and approval.
ER:
Staff is proposing the creation of a separate incentive
XPLANATION OF EQUEST
program for special events that provide or have the potential to provide a high level of
economic benefit to the City, the Special Event Economic Development (SEED)
Incentive Program. A draft program description, application, evaluation and awarding of
City grants for the SEED Incentive Program are included for review and direction.
Summary of key areas staff is seeking City Commission direction:
1. In the Mission portion of the application, does the City Commission prefer that
- Funds are awarded on a first-come-first-serve basis, to be approved by
Commission at the next scheduled Commission meeting after application by
the agency. This would require a definitive amount of funding be budgeted
for the upcoming fiscal year (for example $20,000), and once the entire
budget has been allocated, the next opportunity for funding would be in the
next budget cycle, dependent on budget authorization.
- Or an application period can be established for applications to be submitted
during a specific period of time in the spring so that “qualified” applicants can
be chosen during the budget process for the upcoming fiscal year. The
budgeted amount for grant funding would be built into the budget based upon
the approved pool of requests and dependent on budget authorization.
182 of 219
However, any agency that misses the application period would have to wait
until the next budget cycle to apply for funding.
2. On page two (2) under Procedures, item number eight (8), City funding shall:
- Be made on a reimbursable basis only (must be supported by event receipts
for eligible expenses as outlined in the guidelines); or
- Made available up front as seed money for the event for things like marketing
to attract sponsorships (receipts would be required as part of the post-event
evaluation process).
3. On page two (2) under Procedures, item number nine (9):
- Does the Commission wish to cap the funding per event at a certain amount,
for example $5,000, based on the total amount approved in the budget cycle.
If the grant fund is $20,000 then a $5,000 cap would guarantee funding to at
least five (4) events per year, or more events if the funding request per event
is less than $5,000 (based on 25% of their overall budget); and
- Would the Commission want to limit the number of consecutive years that an
agency can apply for funding with the assumption that after three years (for
example) the event should be able to successfully acquire the needed
sponsorships to continue without City funding.
The Funding Request Criteria portion on page 3 lists event costs that may be funded
and costs that are prohibited, including disallowing funding for any event that conflicts
with a City or CRA event held within the corporate city limits.
Each awarded applicant must submit a completed Special Event Evaluation Form with a
Profit/Loss Statement and eligible event receipts within 30 days of the final date of the
event. Failure to comply with this requirement will result in withdrawal of the award
and/or denial of future funding requests.
H?
The purpose of creating a grants
OW WILL THIS AFFECT CITY PROGRAMS OR SERVICES
program to support special events that provide a high economic benefit to the City is to
guarantee transparency and a cost-benefit for the expenditure of public dollars. It is the
policy of the City Commission to serve a public purpose by increasing economic
development in the City through the support of special events that create a destination
location within the City of Boynton Beach.

Approve up to $5,000 in grant funds to the Florida
EQUESTED CTION BY ITY OMMISSION
Brewers Guild Association to offset costs of producing the South Florida Beer Festival at the
Boynton Beach Intracoastal Park. The requested grant funds would come from a proposed
grant program in FY 2014 aimed to increase the number of special events that bring economic
development benefits to the City of Boynton Beach.
ER:
On Saturday, November 2, 2013, the Florida Brewers Guild
XPLANATION OF EQUEST
Association is hosting the South Florida Beer festival at the Boynton Beach Intracoastal
Park from 12 pm – 5 pm. The event is expected to bring approximately 2,000 people to
the City. Up to $5,000 in matching grant funds is requested to help offset the costs of
the production of the event. The source of the grant funds will be from a new economic
development special event grant program being proposed for FY 2014. Due to timing
needs associated with planning special events, the item is being brought to City
th
Commission on August 6 for consideration. A contract will be brought back to the City
Commission prior to the event date for formal approval. Draft program guidelines
include, but are not limited to:
The event should promote the City of Boynton Beach as a place of destination in
line with the City’s economic development program.
The event should increase the number of people who would normally come into
the City at that time, thereby providing potential benefit to local businesses.
Events that bring in new money and result in people staying overnight in Boynton
Beach are highly desirable.
193 of 219
The City’s financial support should represent no more than 50% of the total event
budget. The maximum amount an applicant may request is $5,000 and will be on
a reimbursement basis. Volunteer hours may not be counted toward the total
event budget, but the value of in-kind goods and services may be counted.
The request for City support must include a list of other City entities or groups
and private sponsors from whom the applicant is seeking financial support.
The event need not always be free of charge, but should be accessible to the
community/public.
The Applicant must demonstrate the ability to produce and market a well-
planned, safe event.
The Applicant must demonstrate strong financial management and effective
management controls, including cost-effectiveness. Successful applicants must
agree to provide the event’s financial statements and allow the City to conduct its
own review, if desired.
If the event is charitable in nature, it should benefit a Boynton Beach charitable
organization.
The Applicant agrees to allow the City to cross-market other City-based activities,
programs, projects and special events.
A written post-event evaluation shall be provided to the City.
H?
In the past, the City has not closed
OW WILL THIS AFFECT CITY PROGRAMS OR SERVICES
its parks for private special events; however, special events that meet the guidelines
above are economic drivers and provide a public benefit to residents and businesses
within the City. Therefore, it is recommended the park only be open on that day to
those who purchase a ticket.
FI:
$50,000 for economic development related marketing efforts is being
ISCAL MPACT
proposed in the FY 2014 budget, the same amount as approved in the FY 2013 budget.
A special set-aside in the amount of $10,000 within the economic development
marketing budget is being proposed to fund the new special event grant program.
A:
Do not approve up to $5,000 in grant funding under the newly proposed
LTERNATIVES
program. Another alternative would be to direct staff to find the funds from another
source.

EQUESTED CTION BY ITY OMMISSION
Authorize the City Manager, or designee to apply for and execute agreements and documents
associated with the Florida Recreation Development Assistance Program (FRDAP) grant on
behalf of the City of Boynton Beach.
ER:
In a continuing effort to culminate the development of the
XPLANATION OF EQUEST
Congress Avenue Barrier-Free Park, staff is applying for this grant that will fund the
purchase and installation of the premier playground element of the park. This
playground piece will be accessible by wheelchair or walker and offer new opportunities
for children of all ages and abilities.
All the equipment and amenities currently at the park have been paid for through grants,
private donations and City CIP funds. The Greater Boynton Beach Foundation is also
actively fundraising for donation dollars to help complete the park, and there are still
numerous donation opportunities for equipment and amenities beyond the premier
playground element (see attachment). In the past several years, the FRDAP grant has
not been available, but now in this new funding cycle, staff has the opportunity to apply
for funding that will purchase and install a major play element that is still missing from
the master site plan.
H?
The FRDAP grant requires a 1:1
OW WILL THIS AFFECT CITY PROGRAMS OR SERVICES
match (cash or in-kind) from the applicant for a maximum of $200,000 grant. The grant
funded project must be complete within two years of the grant award. The larger the
project scope, the more competitive the grant application. Therefore, to submit a
195 of 219
competitive grant application we must consider all the existing and planned facilities at
the Barrier-Free Park and adjacent Tennis Center.
This will enable us to use funding associated with a proposed Fitness Zone at the Park
and capital improvement projects scheduled for FY2013/14 and FY2014/15 at the
Tennis Center as our in-kind match.
The proposed Fitness Zone will be made possible through a $50,000 Trust for Public
Lands grant, which if awarded, will be matched 1:1 with Park Impact Fees.

Total Project $400,000. Includes playground, tennis center restroom

XPLANATION OF EQUEST
Merker requested this item be placed on the agenda for discussion. Attached you will
find a copy of Ordinance 06-078 which outlines the process for naming/renaming parks
and city facilities.
A request for renaming a park may be initiated by the City Manager or by any member
of the City Commission through the City Manager. The Commission should then
appoint a five member advisory committee to consider the request. The advisory
committee shall forward their recommendation to the City Commission for a final
decision.
Historically, the City Commission has appointed 1-2 members from the Recreation &
Parks Board, the Community Relations Board and the Senior Advisory Board.
However, the Ordinance does not require the advisory committee members be current
advisory board members.
