Reverend Lance Chaney, having led the St. John Missionary Baptist Church as Pastor, for over
10 years, was a pillar within the City of Boynton Beach and will be missed by the community he
served.
At St. John Missionary Baptist Church, Reverend Chaney brought a ministry of extraordinary
blessings, phenomenal growth and a light to Boynton Beach. He not only blessed the St. John
Missionary Baptist Church with his presence, but that of his lovely wife Marilane and three
beautiful children Alex, Ashley and Allison, who have also brought the community much joy.
Reverend Chaney’s leadership and love of people was exemplified through the growth and
strong bonds of unity that today exist in the St. John Missionary Baptist Church family.
Reverend Chaney attended the University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff, where he served as
President of Student Government and was a member of the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity and the
NAACP. He also earned a degree in Business Administration, and a Leadership Certificate,
from Harvard School of Divinity and Masters of Divinity at Knox Theological Seminary.
The City of Boynton Beach reaped the benefits and fruits of his labor. His ability to touch lives
extended beyond the Boynton Beach Community into several Palm Beach County
organizations, such as the Roots Cultural Festival, MLK Community Celebration, Social Security
Administration, Forums on Affordable Housing and Education, Correction Task Force for the
Criminal Justice Commission of Palm Beach County, State Attorney Advisory Board, Haiti Relief
Efforts and many more.
Reverend Chaney had an extremely positive impact on the City of Boynton Beach Community
and we were blessed to have partnered with him.
Now, therefore
, I, Jerry Taylor, by virtue of the authority vested in me as Mayor of the City of
Boynton Beach, Florida, recognize with this Tribute
REVEREND LANCE CHANEY
for his commitment and leadership in uniting many communities, including the City of Boynton
Beach.
In witness whereof
, I have hereunto set my hand and caused the Seal of the City of Boynton
Beach, Florida, to be affixed at Boynton Beach, Florida, the 6th day of August, Two Thousand
and Thirteen.

Excess (Deficit)$ -$ 6,913$ -$ 6,095
Revenues & Transfers (Exhibit A) – Budgeted Funding Sources:
Property taxes
and other revenues provide funding sources of $52.2 M or 75% of our total $68.8 M
General Fund budget estimate for FY 2012-13. 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 an 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 ninth month in FY 2012-13,
revenues and transfers realized are approximately $58.6 M of the budget estimate
compared to $54.9 M realized to date in FY 2011-12.
Ad Valorem Taxes, net of discounts and TIF taxes to the CRA
, received to date was
$22.7 M as compared to $21.6 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 $3.1 M or 69% actual collected compared to $3.2 M or
71% in FY 2011-12.
Business Taxes
2. are due at the beginning of the fiscal year. For FY 2012-13, $1.3 M
or 96% has been collected which is almost equivalent to the FY 2011-12 amount of
$1.34 M or 90%.
State Shared revenues
3. of $5.0 M or 76% have been collected in FY2012-13 as
compared to $4.8 M or 75% received in FY 2011-12.
Public Safety revenues
4. at this point is on track with the budgeted amount; $3.3 M or
72 of 520
88% was received compared to $3.2 M or 82% 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 budget increase was due to increased pension and health care
costs.
Actual Expenditures –
General Fund expenditures for the ninth month period ending
June 30 (75% of the fiscal year) are $51.7 M that is 75% of the $68.8 M expenditure
appropriation for FY 2012-13.
The table at the top of Exhibit B displays actual expenditures of $51.7 M or 75% of the
FY 2012-13 budget. At this point in the fiscal year, we are at the same spending levels
compared to the $48.8 M or 75% actual spending levels in FY 2011-12 for this same
period.
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.

Excess (Deficit)$ -$ 803$ -$ 4,419
For the ninth month period in FY 2012-13,
Revenues realized are $28.2 M (77%) of the annual budget estimate.
Expenditures incurred are $27.4 M (75%) of the annual appropriated budget.
This results in revenues in excess of expenditures yielding approximately $ 803 K.
The following provides brief comments on revenues and expenditures to date.
Revenues (Exhibit C) -
The $28.2 M in FY 2012-13 actual revenues and fund balance
increase are on target with the $27.8 M to date in FY 2011-12, because of two factors:
Water Sales - $14.0 M equivalent to 78% of the annual estimate, compared to
$13.3 M or 72% at this point in FY 2011-12.
73 of 520
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 $27.4 M
or 75% of the annual appropriation compared to expenditures of $23.3 M or 63% for the
prior fiscal year. The increase is due to a budgeted transfer to the Utility
Renewal/Replacement capital fund that is in the FY 2012-13 budget.

EQUESTED CTION BY ITY OMMISSION
Accept the offer of $6,000 as settlement of the City's Second Mortgage that exists on this
property as a result of the proposed short sale for Diane Dolphin of 318 Glen Arbor Terrace,
Boynton Beach, Florida, 33426, in the amount of $50,000, and Waive the Right of First Refusal
for this same property.
ER:
Ms. Dolphin purchased her home for $183,000 in January of
XPLANATION OF EQUEST
2007 with assistance from the City of Boynton Beach’s first time homebuyer program.
The City’s second mortgage, in the amount of $75,190, is a zero interest (0%) lien that
runs concurrent with the first mortgage. Ms. Dolphin has suffered a substantial loss of
income in recent years, and is about to be foreclosed upon. She was able to secure a
buyer for the property, and her bank agreed to a short sale in the amount of $50,000; an
appraisal of the property substantiates this information.
This is in accordance with the short sale policy previously approved by the Commission.
H?
As most foreclosures are
OW WILL THIS AFFECT CITY PROGRAMS OR SERVICES
inevitable once Lis Pendens has been filed, it is in the City’s best interest to allow the
property to be transferred to a new homeowner, which will help keep the neighborhood
stabilized, and receive some form of monetary recoupment though small.
FI:
Should the property go into foreclosure, the City has virtually no
ISCAL MPACT
hope of regaining any funding, and there is no indication as to how the long the property
would stay vacant in the neighborhood. Allowing the short sale and bank’s offer of
$6,000 will allow the City to regain dollars to subsidize its current housing assistance

EQUESTED CTION BY ITY OMMISSION
Approve Subordination Agreement allowing for a subordination of the City's Mortgage for James
th
and Karen Hannigan of 2389 S.W. 13 Way, Boynton Beach, Florida, 33426 and authorizing the
City Manager to execute the Subordination Agreement.
EXPLANATION OF REQUEST:
Subordination is the acceptance of new charges,
claims or mortgages on a given property by a lender in first position on a mortgage. 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. & Mrs.
Hannigan purchased their home through the City’s First Time Homebuyer Program in
2008. Their current mortgage was financed on July 8, 2008, with Freedom Mortgage for
$109,620 at 6.75% maturing August 1, 2038. The Hannigans want to refinance their
home through Residential Finance Corporation to a current 25 year, FHA streamline
mortgage for $103,426, at 4.50%. In doing so, they will reduce their monthly payments
by $188.64.
HOW WILL THIS AFFECT CITY PROGRAMS OR SERVICES:
There is no affect to
city programs or services; the Hannigans are merely taking advantage of the current
lower interest rates and looking for financial relief.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no fiscal impact, as the City would still maintain its initial
investment in the project of $29,000.00.
ALTERNATIVES:
Not to subordinate the mortgage.

beginning of June 2013 (R13-043). At the time of pre-construction, the only item
discussed was the construction; it was later discovered that the furniture to outfit the
rooms was needed as well. Currently, the furniture at Fire Station #3 is inadequate for
an individual room due to the dimensions of the rooms and built-ins as part of the
construction. Each room will contain one bed and three lockers to be shared by three
different firefighters (one person per shift per room). The anticipated date of completion
of the construction project is the beginning of October 2013 and the lead time for the

EQUESTED CTION BY ITY OMMISSION
Lake Worth, Florida as final payment on Blanket Purchase order #130494 for a total purchase
order amount of $32,877.50 for plan review and inspection tasks on an "as-needed basis." Hy-
Byrd, Inc. was selected from written quotes in connection with this blanket purchase order.
Accordingly, purchase orders exceeding $25,000 requires the City Commission approval.
ER:
The Building Department requested a blanket purchase
XPLANATION OF EQUEST
order #130494 to Hy-Byrd, Inc. based on written quotes for plan review and inspection
tasks on an “as-needed basis” in December 2012. According to the City’s purchasing
policy purchase orders under $25,000 require three (3) written quotes, which was
provided.
The purpose of utilizing this vendor was to supplement the Building Department’s work
force to assist in plan review and inspections services when the demand increases or
when City staff is unavailable in order to provide appropriate processing time for these
requests and customer service.
Once it was determined that this method was effective, the City prepared and
advertised an RFP in April 2013 for these services. On June 18, 2013 the Commission
awarded a contract to a primary and secondary vendor as a result of this RFP process.
The Blanket Purchase Order #130494 was to provide the procurement method for
paying for these services until the RFP was advertised and awarded. Unfortunately the
Department experienced a sudden retirement of a Building Field Inspector the first of
June. This created an additional need for the services from Hy-Byrd under the blanket
241 of 520
purchase order until the RFP was awarded on June 18, 2013. The additional services
thru June 17, 2013 has caused the blanket purchase order #130494 to total $32,877.50,
which requires the approval of the City Commission.
Attached is a memo from the Building Department detailing the circumstance
surrounding this purchase.

This will provide the needed

Purchase Order #130494
Invoice #3427
Please accept this memorandum as background information regarding the above referenced
invoice and purchase order.
As part of the Building Divisions current operating procedures we utilize Hy-Byrd, Inc. on an as
needed basis to supplement our work force to complete plan review and inspection tasks. In the
past these services were paid on a 121 because of the as needed nature and the total amount of
the costs involved.
In November of 2012 per our discussion it was determined that a request for proposals (RFP)
was required to obtain a contract for plan review and inspection services to supplement our work
force in the Building Division.
th
On November 30, 2012 the Building Division solicited three (3) proposals from vendors to
obtain a purchase order to allow the Building and Procurement Divisions enough time to
properly prepare the RFP.

On December 4, 2013 a blanket purchase order #130494 was issued to Hy-Byrd, Inc. in an
amount not to exceed $25,000 dollars. The purchase order amount was projected based on
historical costs and would allow for enough time to complete the RFP process.
th
On April 26, 2013 the RFP was completed and a notice was advertised in the Palm Beach Post.

On June 4, 2013 Glen Steg, Building Field Inspector while on approved sick leave submitted
his formal notice to retire. This was a sudden and unexpected retirement and has required the
Building Division to utilize the inspection services of Hy-Byrd, Inc. for a fulltime field inspector
during the month of June 2013 and ongoing until the position can be filled.
During the transition time between the close out of purchase order #130494 and the issuance of
the contract from the RFP the Building Division will need to exceed the authorized $25,000
dollar amount of purchase order #130494 in the amount of $6,395.00.
As you can see from the above information and timeline this was an unforeseen event.
If it was not for the unanticipated retirement of our Building Field Inspector we would have been
able to close out purchase order #130494 as planned and transition to the new contract with Hy-
Byrd, Inc. from the RFP.
At your earliest convenience please prepare an agenda item to the City Commission to authorize
the additional cost above the $25,000 dollars for the final invoice from Hy-Byrd, Inc. which will
close out PO#130494.
If you have any questions or need any further information please contact me in the Building
Division at 561.742.6366. Thank you for your cooperation in this matter.

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

an Invitation to Bid for the Raw Water Main - Section B project, Bid No. 041-2821-13/DJL.
Bid proposals were received and publicly opened on April 24, 2013. Twelve (12) bids
were received, and Ric-Man Construction Florida, Inc. (Ric-Man Construction) was
identified as the apparent low bidder. The Engineer of Record for the project, Erdman
Anthony, conducted reference checks for the three (3) lowest bidders. While reviewing
the bid submittals, it was found that the low bidder, Ric-Man Construction, had a past
litigation with the City. After confirming with the City Attorney that the prior issues had
been settled it was decided that a pre-award meeting with the vendor would be in the
best interest of the City.
Subsequently, a pre-award meeting was scheduled to ensure that Ric-Man Construction
and the City had a thorough understanding of their roles and responsibilities in
connection with this contract in an effort to avoid issues similar to those in the past. The
pre-award meeting was held on July 10, 2013 with representatives of Ric-Man
Construction, Erdman Anthony, and City staff. At the conclusion of the meeting,
Erdman Anthony, Procurement/Finance, and the Utilities Department recommended
awarding the contract to Ric-Man Construction as the lowest responsive, responsible
303 of 520
bidder. Attached are the Procurement/Finance memorandum, Erdman Anthony’s
recommendation letter, and the detailed bid tally sheet for all bidders.
The scope of work for this project includes approximately 9,500 linear feet of 36-inch raw
water main with all fittings, valves, and connections along the Woolbright Road corridor
from the intersection of Woolbright Road and Military Trail to the intersection of Woolbright
Road and Congress Avenue, a portion of which is within the Lake Worth Drainage District
right-of-way.

corporation authorized to do business in the State of Florida, hereinafter referred to as the
“CONTRACTOR”.
WHEREAS, the CITY has awarded to the CONTRACTOR the work of performing certain
construction services.
WHEREAS, at its meeting of August, 6, 2013, by Resolution No.:________, the CITY
Commission authorized the proper CITY officials to execute this Contract hereinafter referred to as
Contract No.:041-2821-13/DJL, and;
NOW, THEREFORE, CITY and CONTRACTOR, in consideration of the mutual covenants

completion of the WORK in accordance with the Contract Documents.
Article 3. CONTRACT TIME; LIQUIDATED DAMAGES.
3.1 The WORK will be substantially completed within 270 calendar days from the date when the
Contract Time commences to run as provided in paragraph 2.3 of the General Conditions, and

Conditions within 30 calendar days from the date of Substantial Completion.
3.2 Liquidated Damages. The CITY and CONTRACTOR recognize and acknowledge that time is
of the essence of this Contract and that the CITY will suffer financial loss if the WORK is not
completed within the times specified in paragraph 3.1 above, plus any extensions thereof
allowed in accordance with Article 12 of the General Conditions. Each of the parties
acknowledges that it has attempted to quantify the damages which would be suffered by the
CITY in the event of the failure of CONTRACTOR to perform in a timely manner, but neither
one has been capable of ascertaining such damages with a certainty. CITY and
CONTRACTOR also recognize and acknowledge the delays, expense and difficulties involved
in proving in a legal proceeding the actual loss suffered by the CITY if the WORK is not
completed on time. Accordingly, instead of requiring any such proof, the CITY and
CONTRACTOR agree that as liquidated damages for delay (but not as a penalty)

that expires after the time specified in paragraphs 3.1 for substantial completion until the

neglect, refuse or fail to complete the remaining WORK within the Contract Time or any proper
extension thereof granted by the CITY, CONTRACTOR shall pay CITY Two Thousand and

retained by the CITY until Final Completion and acceptance by CITY.

Approve a one-year extension to the Provider Agreement for "GROUP BENEFITS MEDICAL
CLAIMS ADMINISTRATION (TPA) SERVICES AND/OR FULLY INSURED PLAN" with CIGNA
Healthcare for the plan year October 1, 2013 through September 30, 2014 as provided under the
Terms of the contract with CIGNA and the City of Boynton Beach.
PROVIDERAGREEMENTPERIOD:OCTOBER1,2013THROUGHSEPTEMBER30,2014
ER:
A Request for Proposal (RFP) 046-1610-10/CJD was issued
XPLANATION OF EQUEST
for Group Benefits Medical Claims Administration (TPA) Services - a Fully Insured
Medical Plan by Procurement Services. The Proposals were opened on June 2, 2010
with five healthcare companies responding to this RFP. The City’s Human Resources
staff (Review Committee) ranked the proposals based on criteria stated in the RFP.
CIGNA received the highest ranking with a score of 95 out of a possible 100 points.
The City’s Insurance Committee, a cross functional team with representation from the
Unions and general employees met to review the proposals. The Insurance Committee
and the Review Committee recommended awarding the medical insurance agreement
for the period October 1, 2010 through September 30, 2011 to CIGNA Healthcare as
the most responsive, beneficial healthcare plan. On July 20, 2010, Commission
approved Resolution No. R10-094 authorizing the City Manager and City Clerk to
execute the Provider Agreement with CIGNA Healthcare.
Under the Term of the Provider Agreement, the City has the option to extend for three
additional one-year periods. On July 5, 2011 the City Commission approved Resolution
No. R11-072 that approved a one-year extension period from October 1, 2011 through
402 of 520
September 30, 2012. On September 4, 2012 the City Commission approved Resolution
No. R12-093 that approved a one-year extension period for the period October 1, 2012
through September 30, 2013.
The City’s benefit consultant, The Gehring Group, requested a quote from CIGNA, the
current health insurance carrier, for extension period of October 1, 2013 through
September 30, 2014.
CIGNA Healthcare has provided a renewal quote that keeps the plan benefit the same
but increases the monthly premium by approximately 10.86%. (Attached Proposal
#1120031)
The impact on the monthly rates would be:
Current Renewal Increase
Employee $660.85 $732.62 10.86%
Employee + Spouse $1,282.05 $1,421.28 10.86%
Employee + Children $1,189.54 $1,318.72 10.86%
Employee + Family $1,473.70 $1,683.74 10.86%
This offer was a result of discussions with The Gehring Group (the City’s Benefits
Consultants) and reviewing the City’s claims experience and various factors that are
utilized to determine a plan’s rate structure. After reviewing the City’s claims experience
and CIGNA’s renewal offer, it was the opinion of Gehring that it would be to the City’s
benefit to accept CIGNA’s renewal quote to continue with the fully insured plan for the
plan year October 1, 2013 thru September 30, 2014.
The annual expenses for the Health Insurance Plan for the current and previous fiscal
years are as follows:
FY 2010/2011 $5,290,202.68
FY 2011/2012 $4,904,166.08
FY 2012/2013(to date) $4,652,778.20

XPLANATION OF EQUEST
opened six proposals in response to the RFP for a Two Year Contract for a Fully
Insured Vision Plan. The Evaluation Committee included the City’s HR Director and the

recommends awarding this agreement to Vision Service Plan Insurance Co. as the most
responsive, responsible proposal meeting all Procurement requirements.

vendor acceptance, satisfactory performance and determination that renewal and
pricing will be in the best interest of the City.

The monthly premiums would change as follows:
Current VSP-Choice Plan Effective 10/1/13
Employee $ 3.84 $ 3.50

a 35% decrease in the family monthly premium.
The annual expenses for the Vision Plan for the current and previous fiscal years are as
follow:
FY 2010/2011 $ 35,983.49

a benefit to full time employees of the City. The vision insurance covers annual eye
exams for the employee and a portion of the lens and frame costs for eyeglasses and
contact lenses. Employees have the option of paying the cost to add their families to
the vision plan. The recommended vision provider, VSP, has proposed reduced rates
that will save the City premiums on the employees, but the larger savings are passed on
to the employee with a more dramatic reduction of premiums.
