GENERAL RULES & PROCEDURES FOR PUBLIC PARTICIPATION AT
CITY OF BOYNTON BEACH COMMISSION MEETINGS
THE AGENDA:
There is an official agenda for every meeting of the City Commissioners, which
determines the order of business conducted at the meeting. The City Commission will
not take action upon any matter, proposal, or item of business, which is not listed upon
the official agenda, unless a majority of the Commission has first consented to the
presentation for consideration and action.
Consent Agenda Items:
These are items which the Commission does not need to
discuss individually and which are voted on as a group.
Regular Agenda Items:
These are items which the Commission will discuss individually
in the order listed on the agenda.

PROPOSED RESOLUTION NO. R13-119 -
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, 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 loses 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 with their current lender to a 22 year, FHA streamline mortgage for
$104,452, at 4.75%. In doing so, they will reduce their monthly payments by $70.90.
The Hannigans were granted a subordination request in August of this year, but did not
follow through with the refinancing of their property; even though they were offered a
good rate and term, there were excessive fees associated with the previous refinance.
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.

position on a mortgage, of new charges, claims or mortgages on a given property. In
subordination the original lender loses its first, or priority, position on the property and
becomes subordinate to the new charge, claim or mortgage. In this case, the Williams
rehabilitated their home through the City’s Home Improvement Program in 2011; their current
mortgage was financed in August 10, 2006, with Midfirst Bank for $100,000 at 6.75%, maturing
in September of 2021. The Williams want to refinance their home with the Home Affordable
Refinance Program (HARP) to a current 30 year, conventional mortgage for $72,475 at 5.25%. In
doing so, they will reduce their monthly payments by $518.73.
There is no affect to city programs or

XPLANATION OF EQUEST
Sodium chloride (salt) is combined with water to produce a brine solution which is used
by the East Water Treatment Plant on site chlorine generators (OSG) to generate
sodium hypochlorite (liquid chlorine) via electrolysis; the West Water Treatment Plant
OSG will be operational this year. This process requires the procurement of sodium
chloride in large quantities. By piggy-backing the Palm Beach County Bid, the City
receives the lower pricing based on the much larger quantities used by the County. A
copy of the Palm Beach County Award Letter to Morton Salt, Inc. is attached. Palm
Beach County has complied with public competitive bid requirements that equal or exceed the
City of Boynton Beach bid requirements.
Recent fiscal expenditures are:
FY 2011/2012 - $36,950.

FY 2012/2013 - $32,155.

Water quality is of utmost importance to the water treatment plants. Little or no chlorine
usage would pose great risks to public health and would prevent the water treatment
plants from meeting state and regulatory water quality standards.

"Purchase of Sodium Hydroxide Bulk Tank" to Harrington Industrial Plastics of Fort Lauderdale,
FL, for the purchase of a replacement sodium hydroxide bulk tank. The total cost for this
purchase is $49,962.12.
ER:
The Finance Department advertised and received four (4)
XPLANATION OF EQUEST
bids for Bid No. 005-2821-14/DJL “Purchase of Sodium Hydroxide Bulk Tank”; bid
opening was October 2, 2013. The four (4) bids were reviewed by staff in the Utilities
Department. Harrington Industries Plastics was the lowest most responsive,
responsible bidder.
The sodium hydroxide (NaOH) bulk tank at the West Water Treatment Plant (West
WTP) has developed several leaks in recent years which, though repaired, are an
indication of structural deterioration. Due to the corrosive nature of NaOH, these leaks
pose risks to personnel safety and regulatory compliance. Thus, the tank needs to be
replaced.
H?
NaOH is used at the West WTP to

adjust pH, thereby preventing the scaling of pipelines. It is also used to neutralize
hydrogen sulfide which is released to the atmosphere as a by-product of the treatment
process. Any interruption in NaOH supply will negatively impact water quality as well as
encourage the release of noxious odors to the atmosphere.

"Purchase of Clearwell Transfer Pump" to Hudson Pump and Equipment of Lakeland, FL, for the
purchase of a replacement clearwell transfer pump. The total cost for this purchase is $37,100.
ER:
The Finance department advertised and received three (3)
XPLANATION OF EQUEST
bids in response to this solicitation. The Bids were publicly opened on October 9, 2013
and staff from the Utilities Department reviewed the bids.
The clearwell transfer pumps at the West Water Treatment Plant (West WTP) transfer
treated water from the clearwell to the onsite three million gallon ground storage tank for
subsequent distribution to consumers. These pumps are the original pumps installed
when the West WTP was built in 1993, and generally have a useful life of 10 years.
Recently, maintenance has increased on these pumps requiring the need to consider a
replacement schedule. As such, performance specs and drawings for a replacement
pump were distributed for bid submittals, of which, Hudson Pump and Equipment were
the lowest cost, most responsive bidder.
H?
Faulty clearwell transfer pumps
OW WILL THIS AFFECT CITY PROGRAMS OR SERVICES
require a modification to the treatment process to maintain plant operation. This is
achieved by bypassing the clearwell. However, this also results in reduced plant
throughput capacity, deficiencies in water quality and regulatory compliance, and
increased chemical usage leading to increased operational costs.

same by written Change Order has been obtained from the City Manager
or the City Commission of Boynton Beach, if necessary, which

materials, supplies, equipment and directly related services
supplied by him. Among the items considered as general overhead
are bonds, insurance, incidental job burdens, supervision and
general office expenses.
8.4.3.6In no case shall the CONTRACTOR’S cost for administering
subcontracts exceed five (5) percent of the subcontractors’ cost not

XPLANATION OF EQUEST
The City’s existing five-year lease with Pitney Bowes for mail processing equipment
expires February 27, 2014. The City currently pays $689.79 per month with State of
Florida contract pricing for the mail processing equipment. Pitney Bowes has provided
a revised pricing proposal, a copy of which is attached.

Educational Consumables. The State of Florida complied with public competitive bid
requirements that equaled or exceeded the City of Boynton Beach bid requirements.
The contract term was October 18, 2010 through October 17, 2013. The State of

PROPOSED ORDINANCE NO. 13-029 - FIRST
EQUESTED CTION BY ITY OMMISSION
READING - Amending the Land Development Regulations updating the Zoning Use Matrix to
include Showroom/Warehouses as a new principal use and provide definition and regulations.
Applicant: City-initiated - (TABLED ON OCTOBER 15, 2013)
ER:
Currently, the Land Development Regulations do not
XPLANATION OF EQUEST
recognize Showroom/Warehouse as a use within the Zoning Use Matrix, and such
businesses are either treated as a retail business or a warehouse operation, depending
upon the business characteristics. As a result, this type of business is often categorized
with uses which are more intensive with respect to parking demand and traffic
characteristics. Business attraction and retention are important to the health of the City;
therefore, staff is proposing to create this new principal use to address market trends
and more accurately classify and regulate it.
Understanding that Showroom-type establishments have different operational
characteristics than department stores and home improvement big box stores relative to
the number of customers on the premises at any given point in time and thus the
amount of parking required, the proposed amendment recommends the creation of a
new principal use in the Use Matrix to recognize and regulate the use differently.
Warehouse, Showroom (limited product line) would be defined as a showroom-type
establishment in which the principal use consists of a showroom for large, space
intensive items such as furniture, major appliances, flooring, mattresses, recreational
vehicles or the like. These establishments generally have a single product line, which
differentiates them from department stores, electronics stores, home improvement
379 of 521
stores and warehouse clubs in that they do not sell a wide range and mix of
merchandise.
Overall, staff believes this amendment would encourage and promote business and
economic development, thereby furthering the City’s Economic Development initiatives.

DATE: September 17, 2013
RE: Economic Development and Interim LDR Amendments Part IV
(CDRV 13-006) – Approve amendments to the LDR to update the
Zoning Use Matrix to include Showroom/Warehouses as a new
principal use and provide definition and regulations.
OVERVIEW
The rewrite of the City’s land development regulations (LDR) allowed staff to perform a
complete review and analysis of each standard, regulation, and process. As part of the post-
adoption process, staff anticipates the periodic need for, and is prepared to expeditiously process,
updates and amendments to the LDR for one or more of the following reasons or initiatives:
1. Business and economic development initiatives;
2. Sustainability initiatives;
3. Maintaining internal consistency;
4. Achieving regulatory compliance; and
5. Incorporating implementation feedback necessary to meet original or current
objectives and vision.
The proposed amendment would further items #1 business and economic development initiatives
and #5 by adjusting existing regulations to achieve original or current objectives.
ANALYSIS
This proposed amendment was part of a previous round of Economic Development and Interim
LDR Amendments (Part II), but were removed by staff prior to the Planning & Development
Board hearing on May 28, 2013, in order to provide the newly-hired Economic Development
Manager the time necessary to review all aspects of the proposed amendment and potentially
389 of 521
suggest changes. This review has been conducted and is forwarded in final format for review and
approval.
As noted in the previous staff report, the current code does not appropriately define this unique
business, and staff’s interpretation of the proposed business activities/operations inaccurately
categorizes this type of business with uses which are more intensive with respect to parking
demand and traffic characteristics. Business attraction and retention are important to the health
of the City; therefore, staff is proposing to create this new principal use to address market trends
and more accurately classify and regulate it.
Showroom/Warehouses
Staff, in an effort to increase business opportunities for larger scale retailers and assist in
facilitating the leasing of some of the vacant commercial and industrial spaces within the City, is
suggesting amendments to the Land Development Regulations (LDR) involving new definitions
that separates uses that were formerly grouped under major headings such as Merchandise, New
and Warehousing. Understanding that Showroom-type establishments have different operational
characteristics than department stores and home improvement big box stores relative to the
number of customers on the premises at any given point in time and thus the amount of parking
required, the proposed amendment recommends the creation of a new principal use in the Use
Matrix to recognize and regulate the use differently. Warehouse, Showroom (limited product
line) would be defined as a showroom-type establishment in which the principal use consists of a
showroom for large, space intensive items such as furniture, major appliances, flooring,
mattresses, recreational vehicles or the like. These establishments generally have a single
product line, which differentiates them from department stores, electronics stores, home
improvement stores and warehouse clubs in that they do not sell a wide range and mix of
merchandise. Parking for this particular use would be one (1) parking space per each 500 square
feet of gross floor area for the first 10,000 square feet and one (1) parking space for each 1,000
square feet thereafter, rather than being grouped in with typical retail uses at one (1) parking
space for each 200 square feet, again based upon the lower volume of customer traffic associated
with the limited product line.
CONCLUSION / RECOMENDATION
Staff is recommending approval of the proposed code amendment. Overall, this amendment
encourages and promotes business/economic development, thereby furthering the City’s
Economic Development initiatives.

Parking is free at these parks, and they close at sunset.
Parking fees at Oceanfront Park
Annual Resident Parking Permit = $40
Non Resident Seasonal Parking Permit (valid May 1 – November 15) = $90
Daily parking fee November 16 – April 30 = $10
Daily parking fee May 1 – November 15 = $5
Fees are collected by parking attendants. Parking attendants at Oceanfront Park are assigned the
following schedule:
One is scheduled from 8 a.m. – 2 p.m.
One is scheduled form 10:30 a.m. – 4:30 p.m.
Parking fees are collected from 8 a.m. – 4 p.m.
The total annual budget for parking attendants at Oceanfront Park is $58,062.
The starting salary for a parking attendant is $11.36/hr.
EXTENDING PARKING FEE COLLECTION UNTIL 9 p.m.
This requires adding 5 hours daily to the parking attendant’s schedule. This equates to 1,825
hours annually x $11.36/hr = $20,732 for one parking attendant.
Although there are times during the day when only one parking attendant is on duty, there are
other staff at the park that can provide assistance if needed. Between 5 p.m. and 9 p.m. there will
be no other staff at the park. Consequently, it is strongly recommended that two parking
attendants be assigned this duty if it is decided to extend the schedule during which parking fees
are collected. This would double the expense to $41,464.
Based on anecdotal evidence, we estimate that on a daily basis, approximately 60 cars, on
average, park at Oceanfront Park after 4 p.m. For the basis of analysis, we estimate that 33%
have annual parking permits. Of the remaining 40, we anticipate that half will not be willing to
pay the parking fee. Consequently, we estimate that 20 cars will pay the daily parking fee.
Based on the current daily fee structure, we collect $10/day for 5.5 months, and $5/day for 6.5
months. Therefore, increasing the amount of time parking fees are collected by 5 hours daily, we
estimate that it will generate approximately $53,300 in revenue, calculated as follows:
398 of 521
Parking Fee Estimated of cars that will # of Revenue
pay the daily parking fee
days
$10/day 20 168 $33,600
(Nov. 16 – Apr. 30)
$5/day 20 197 $19,700
(May 1 – Nov. 15)
TOTAL PROJECTED REVENUE 365 *$53,300
*It is emphasized that the projected revenue is based on the assumption that 20 cars per evening
(between 5 p.m. and 9 p.m.) will pay the corresponding daily (i.e. $5 or $10).
Along with the discussion regarding parking fee collection, the Commission also requested
information regarding maintenance; specifically, what is needed to improve the appearance of
the park. The Public Works Department has identified the costs associated accomplishing this
goal.
Over the last several years, we have reduced total man hours allocated to parks and facilities
maintenance. This has been the result of significant staff reductions. Furthermore, the
construction of new amenities such as Congress Avenue Barrier Free Park and Jaycee Park have
increased the number of man hours required for maintenance City wide. However, since we have
reduced staff, we have had to allocate man hours from other standard maintenance elsewhere
(i.e. Oceanfront Park) to provide maintenance at the new parks.
The following costs are associated with maintenance levels over and above current appearance
standards at Oceanfront Park. These costs are associated with the types of aesthetic
improvements that will catch the eye of the typical park patron. In other words, there should be a
bit of a “wow” factor. It is noted that these proposed improvements are for the Boardwalk area
and the dune landscaping only. Essentially, we are proposing to enhance the appearance of the
park eastward from the upper parking lot where the vast majority of park patrons congregate.
The proposed costs do not include items such as parking lot maintenance, light replacement,
pavilion replacement and other general capital items that are addressed in the five year capital
plan nor do the costs include enhanced landscape maintenance throughout the remainder of the
park.
The total annual cost of the proposed maintenance upgrades is $73,600. It is assumed that an
hourly rate of $40 per hour for labor, which would account for either contractual costs or City
staff costs including salary, benefits and other incidentals such as equipment and fuel.
Costs as follow:
Maintenance Activity Frequency Cost
Pressure Washing / General Cleaning 1 times per month, 2 people = 48 Man $15,500
days/Year
Monthly Irrigation Check and Repair Additional 15 Man Days/year $4,800
Hand Weed 16 Man Days/year $5,100
Plant Replacement Materials Annual $5,000
Mulch Additional 6 Man Days/year ($3,000 material $4,900
cost)

Rust Touch Up (sails, benches, cans, etc) 16 Man Days/year ($300 material cost) $5,400
Dune Litter Collection 12 Man Days/year $3,800
Seagrape Vista Pruning 60 Additional Man Days/year $19,200
Seagrape Weed Control and Exotic Removal Professional Spray Contract - New $8,000

Consideration of providing the Boynton Beach
EQUESTED CTION BY ITY OMMISSION
Community Redevelopment Agency Board the authority to act as a review and recommendation
body for major site plan applications for projects located within the CRA District boundaries.
EXPLANATION OF REQUEST: The Boynton Beach Community Redevelopment Agency
(CRA) Board is seeking approval to become a review and recommendation body for projects
requiring major site plan approval on properties that are located within the CRA district
boundaries. As the major site plan process exists today, project applications within the CRA
district boundaries appear before the Planning & Development Board for review and
recommendation then move forward to the City Commission for final site plan approval under
Public Hearing but do not appear before the CRA Board for review or recommendation.
Prior to 2007 and the City Commission becoming the CRA Board, the CRA Board served as the
Planning & Development Board for these projects presented by City staff at their regular
meetings. The projects would then be heard by the City Commission for final during Public
Hearing. At their regular meeting held on July 19, 2011, the Boynton Beach City Commission
denied a request by the Boynton Beach CRA to transfer review and approval of major site plan
application to their Board (see Attachment I).
The rationale for having the CRA Board review projects within its boundaries is twofold; first, CRA
Board members have a more intimate knowledge of the goals and objectives set forth in the
adopted CRA plans and therefore can determine if a proposed project meets the goals of those
plans; and two, if the CRA is negotiating economic or development incentives for the project, it
can tie the incentives to the site plan recommendations. These goals, objectives or incentives are
401 of 521
not known or act as an influencing factor when site plan applications within the CRA district are
reviewed by the Planning & Development Board and the City Commission.
The major site plan application process within the cities of Delray Beach, Lake Worth and West
Palm Beach provide their respective CRA Boards with project review and act as
recommendation bodies for projects falling within their CRA boundaries (see Attachment II). In
these cities, either City or CRA staff will present the site plan application and any
recommendation approved by the CRA Board is forwarded along with the application to the City
Commission for final approval.
HOW WILL THIS AFFECT CITY PROGRAMS OR SERVICES? If the CRA Board is given
authority to act a site plan review and recommending body, City staff could potentially have to
prepare for and attend an additional meeting per month unless CRA staff conducted the site plan
application presentation and provided City staff with any recommendations approved by the CRA
Board. These recommendations would then be incorporated into the list of conditions to be
presented to the City Commission during their review and approval process.

ALTERNATIVES: Deny the request made by the CRA Board.

PROPOSED ORDINANCE NO. 13-030 -
EQUESTED CTION BY ITY OMMISSION
SECOND READING - PUBLIC HEARING - Approve Ordinance providing for use of Special
Magistrate for Code Enforcement/Lien Reduction Matters
ER:
XPLANATION OF EQUEST
In order to sustain and promote the quality of life through the Code enforcement
process, staff recommends that a Special Magistrate program be implemented as a
supplemental enforcement method to the Code Enforcement Board. As provided by
Florida Statutes Section 162.03 and Part II, Article V, Section 2-82 of the City’s Code of
Ordinances, Special Magistrates designated by the Commission have the authority to
hold hearings and assess fines against violators of the City’s Code.
Since Special Magistrates are already authorized by the City’s Code, the Commission
must designate specific Magistrates to preside over Code Enforcement matters. The
use of a Special Magistrate could supplement the City’s existing Code Enforcement
Board process. It will enhance the City’s ability to promote, protect and improve the
health, safety and welfare of the citizens through the Code enforcement process.
Currently, the Code Enforcement Board members are residents of the City of Boynton
Beach. The Board members have a familiarity with the City and a historical knowledge
of Code violations. This knowledge allows the Board to act in the capacity of a "jury of
peers" for alleged Code violators. This approach is effective for neighborhood nuisances
and community-related Code violations such as animals running at large and lot
clearings.
418 of 521
The qualifications for a Special Magistrate as outlined in the proposed ordinance require
the individual to be a member in good standing with the Florida Bar who has a minimum
of five (5) years’ experience. As a legal professional, the Special Magistrate could
provide consistent rulings for violations of a technical or legal matter. Hearings before
the Special Magistrate will be scheduled at least once a month, with additional hearings
whenever necessary. Since a quorum is not necessary, hearings before the Special
Magistrate would be easier to schedule. A higher volume of cases could also be
handled in a shorter timeframe. In addition, the use of a Special Magistrate may reduce
City staff preparation time for the hearings.
The Special Magistrate will also help to facilitate the City’s initiatives to revitalize the
Heart of Boynton areas. For example, the City is currently examining Use and
Occupancy permits for commercial and rental property as an additional tool to assure
that property maintenance meets City standards. Where such standards are not met,
the cases will be brought before the Special Magistrate for expedient processing. This
process will allow the City to verify that life/safety issues, along with general property
aesthetics, are checked on an annual basis, which provides the community a consistent
quality of life expectation in all neighborhoods. A Special Magistrate will assist the City
in streamlining and expediting its goals to revitalize and develop the Heart of Boynton
areas and the City as a whole.
HC?
The use of a Special Magistrate
OW WILL THIS AFFECT ITY PROGRAMS OR SERVICES
will result in an overall improvement in the efficiency of the City’s Code Compliance
program. Since the Special Magistrate will allow the City to handle more cases in a
shorter period of time, compliance might also be achieved in a shorter period of time.
This would be particularly beneficial with cases in problem areas in the City. Because
the hearings would be streamlined, it could be possible to have 2 hearings per month,
which would enable the Code Compliance Department to process more cases a month.
Thus, there will be an overall improvement in the City’s appearance, which is a benefit
to both citizens and visitors.

per day for a repeat violation and up to fifteen thousand dollars ($15000) per violation if
the Code Enforcement Board finds the violation to be irreparable or irreversible in nature
for each day the violation continues past the date set by the enforcement Board or Special
Magistrate for compliance or, in the case of a repeat violation for each day the repeat
violation continues beginning with the date the repeat violation is found to have occurred
by the Code inspector. In addition, if the violation is a violation described in section 2-

which the violation exists and upon any other real or personal property owned by the
violator. Upon petition to the circuit court, such order shall be enforceable in the same
manner as a court judgment by the sheriffs of this state, including execution and levy
against the personal property of the violator, but such order shall not be deemed to be a
court judgment except for enforcement purposes. A fine imposed pursuant to this part
shall continue to accrue until the violator comes into compliance or until judgment is
rendered in a suit to foreclose on a lien filed pursuant to this section, whichever occurs
first. After three (3) months from the filing of any such lien which remains unpaid, the
enforcement Board or Special Magistrate may authorize the City attorney to foreclose on
the lien. No lien created pursuant to the provisions of this part may be enforced on real
property which is a homestead under Section 4, Article X of the State Constitution.

community water systems to establish a backflow prevention program that will protect
the public’s drinking water system from cross-connection and backflow of contaminants
into the potable drinking water. The amendment clarifies the purpose of the backflow
prevention program and reflects changes to the State Administrative. Furthermore, it
incorporates the application and administration of backflow prevention devices on the
use of fire hydrants. This approach will strengthen the protection of public health by
requiring the installation of backflow prevention devices on all public uses of fire
hydrants.
The Florida Plumbing Code requires the implementation of an oil and grease
management program to prevent the discharge of oil, grease or other hazardous wastes
to the collection system. The amendment will provide improved guidance to current and
future wastewater producers.

by requiring backflow prevention devices on a metered hydrant either for construction,

Approve the one-year renewal to the Towing Franchise Agreement with Beck's Towing and

XPLANATION OF EQUEST
On September 21, 2010, City Commission approved Resolution R10-137 authorizing
the City Manager to enter into Franchise Agreements with the two top ranked
respondents to the RFP No. 055-2110-10/CJD issued after Commission approval on
April 20, 2010. The RFP was for a three (3) year term with the option to renew for two
(2) additional one (1) year periods. The City entered into a Three-Year Franchise
Agreement with Beck’s Towing and Recovery, Inc. for $104,500.00 per year, and
Zuccala Wrecker Service, Inc. for an annual franchise fee of $100,075.00. Effective
December 15, 2010.
The City requested from the vendors if they would like to renew the Franchise
Agreement for the first one year renewal period. Both vendors requested a reduction in
the annual franchise fee amount. After discussing this request with each of the vendors
and confirming with the City Attorney, staff is recommending reducing the annual
franchise fee to $95,000.00 for each vendor for the renewal period. The annual
th
franchise fee will be due in quarterly payments of $23,750.00 due December 15,

March 15, June 15 and September 15. Both vendors have signed renewal letters
agreeing to the reduced amount.

OW WILL THIS AFFECT CITY PROGRAMS OR SERVICES
The one-year extension would provide the annual revenue of $190,000.00. The Towing
Franchise Agreement has proven to be an agreeable solution to the previous method of
using six tow vendors on a rotation basis.
FI:
ISCAL MPACT
The adopted General Fund Budget for FY 13/14 has an anticipated revenue from
Towing Franchise in the amount of $204,575.00 this revised franchise amount is
$190,000.00 or a reduction of $14,575.00.

The City could issue a new RFP for a Towing Franchise, or return to the previous
practice of rotating towing vendors which produces no income for the City from towing
fees.
