INDIVIDUAL SPEAKERS WILL BE LIMITED TO 3 MINUTE PRESENTATIONS (at the discretion of the Chair, this 3 minute allowance may need to be adjusted depending on the level of business coming before the City Commission) Leon Jenkins, 16049 Rio Del Sol in Delray Beach, wanted to discuss the demolition of a property he owned at 132 NW Martin Luther King Boulevard. It is a financial crisis for Mr, Jenkins. He distributed three photos of the property in question. Mr. Jenkins admitted he had missed the January 12 deadline to come into compliance. He disagreed with the assessment and the inappropriate deadline due to extenuating circumstances. Mr. Jenkins had filed an appeal to the Building Board of Adjustments and Appeal and was given until January 12 . The permits were issued on December N MEETING MINUTES REGULAR CITY COMMISSION BOYNTON BEACH, FL January 20, 2015 19 and Mr. Jenkins and his contractors pursued the work diligently. He had less than three weeks to complete the work with the holidays. During that time the City was moving forward with demolition plans. The building does have a lien that is with the same lender Mr. Jenkins has for his home, that could be problematic. Mr. Jenkins requested more time to complete the work. Harry Woodworth, 685 NE 15 Place, the newly elected president of the Inlet Cove Association (INCA) gave an overview of the community and association. It is a voluntary association chartered for over 20 years and represents over 9 waterfront communities east of Federal Highway and north of Boynton Beach Boulevard with approximately 500 households. Their goal is to encourage the residents to participate in their community, engage in activities and proactively work with the City and its functions. The issues currently being monitored were the progress along North Federal Highway including Yachtsman Cove Plaza, the double rows of poles existing in the area, trash at the bus stops and the ongoing drainage issues. Mr. Woodworth introduced the officers of the association who were present and thanked the Commission for their support. Commissioner McCray reported Yachtsman's Cove Plaza had been sold and the tenants given a time period to vacate. Betty Pierce -Roe, 637 Oak Street, was a current member of the Recreation and Parks Board and announced the 3rd Annual Barrier Free 5K charity walk and run on Saturday, February 14 commencing at 7:30 a.m. The proceeds would go toward the expansion of the park. Various walking levels would be competing. Ms. Pierce -Roe also offered the assistance of - the Recreation and Parks Board on the Lake Ida Park property. Vice Mayor Casello had participated in the event last year and hoped there would be increased participation this year. Cheryl Black, 321 SW 1 st Avenue, noted 11 trees were removed from her property after it was made clear to the contractor that the property owner had not given permission for the removal. The sidewalk area that was pushed up had no stress cracks. The sidewalk was removed after the pipes were installed and the tree roots were never cut. The trees had been there for 50 years and were trimmed 10 feet from - the sidewalk and were maintained. The trees were 127 feet from her home and created no hazard to her or the neighborhood. Many trees in the area are against Code and have not been removed from private property. Ms. Black asserted her home and her trees were targeted and she wasted 15 years of her life because the City destroyed her oasis. Other homeowners have the same issues and the City worked around their trees. A decision has not been made on the replacement trees or landscaping to restore her property. Ms. Black wanted mature trees and her sound /sight dirt barrier and shade. There was a driveway apron installed in her front yard by the City. 4 MEETING MINUTES REGULAR CITY COMMISSION BOYNTON BEACH, FL January 20, 2015 Vice Mayor Casello understood there were issues and he hoped a remedy could be found. Suzanne Ross, Schoolhouse Children's Museum, gave an update showing December was a strong month. Over the previous year there was an overall increase in visitation of 12.7%, admission income increased 8.3% and there are 489 member families enjoying the facility and programs, being a 20% increase in membership. There were new partnership opportunities for 2015 including the Legal Aid Society and JCC of Boynton Beach, both hosting events at the museum. February 28 would be the Schoolhouse Reunion bash. Former students and supporters would gather for both day and evening events beginning at 10 am. Vice Mayor Casello expressed appreciation for Ms. Ross's efforts. Minister Bernard Wright, 713 NW 2nd Street, thanked the Commission for their support and suggested preparation for Martin Luther King Day festivities be done earlier for a bigger and better event. Mr. Wright supported Mr. Jenkins' efforts to retain his property and rehab the building that is 90% completed. Demolition would be a financial burden on the owners and the CRA would purchase the property for less. He was pleading with the Commission to stop the demolition and resolve the issue for the benefit of the citizens. Doug Brueggernann, 713 SE 4 th Street, shared his gratitude from the Seacrest Estates neighborhood for installing a new grill. The Forest Park Association thanked Commissioner Fitzpatrick for participating in the neighborhood meetings. He thanked Jeff Katz for allowing Officer Swan to attend the meetings and Liz Roschek from animal control who takes care of the problems in the area. He reminded the Commission to train for the Barrier Free Walk. Albert Williams, 136 NE 12 Avenue, property manager and maintenance for Leon Jenkins, knew Mr. Jenkins had been working hard to preserve the properties. It is unfair he was only given 30 days to complete a project and then delay the licenses and permits. Mr. Williams offered that Mr. Jenkins was trying to complete the project in a professional manner. Gail Jenkins, 16049 Rio Del Sol in Delray Beach, advised her husband was given permission to remodel the property on November 6 th through January 12 There was a delay in approval of plans due to revisions and delay in inspections. The repairs were 90% completed and she asked for time to complete the work. The inspections were not conducted timely and it was out of their control. She estimated completion would take less than a week. Daniel Spotts, 805 N. Federal Highway, a small business owner in the downtown, attended the CRA meeting. In the past two weeks two more businesses have closed or moved out of the downtown raising the total to 21 businesses having left the area since 61 MEETING MINUTES REGULAR CITY COMMISSION BOYNTON BEACH, FL January 20, 2015 All Aboard Florida made their announcement to proceed. Mr. Spotts again asked the Commission to take seriously the threat the project poses to the City. The new Republican Congress has announced a delay in positive train control regulations for quiet zones. There is no agreement if the regulations do not move forward. He was deeply concerned about the safety of the crossings and encouraged the Commission to address the issue more thoroughly. No one else coming forward, Vice Mayor Casello closed Public Audience. Commissioner McCray asked Attorney Cherof to enlighten the Commission about the Jenkins demolition. Attorney Cherof responded the Building Official had issued a stop work order and order of demolition several months ago. The demolition order was appealed to the Building Board of Adjustment and Appeals and an order was issued. The order related it was found to be an unsafe structure, not suitable for habitation and the demolition order of the Building Official would stand. It was abated until January 12 2015. The Board heard all - the testimony of Mr. and Mrs. Jenkins who were represented by counsel. There was a discussion to set an earlier compliance date, but it was not in the best interest of the parties. The order indicates, "In the event the applicants fail to remedy the unsafe condition of the building by January 12, the Building Official is authorized to proceed with the demolition of the structure." The determination was made there was not timely compliance, the building is unsafe and the demolition process is proceeding. Commissioner McCray understood the date of application was November 7, 2014 and it was issued December 19, 2014. There appears to be sufficient time allotted. Attorney Cherof did not believe the City made any errors in the process. It is common for submitted plans to be returned for lack of details. The Building Board of Adjustment and Appeals was aware of the application for permit and allowed sufficient time for compliance. Attorney Cherof believed there had been sufficient time, but it is left to the Building Official to decide. The City's obligation is to honor the order of the Building Board of Adjustments and Appeals entered back in November. Commissioner McCray inquired if Mr. Jenkins would receive any compensation if the demolition is done. Attorney Cherof did not know. No one else coming forward, Vice Mayor Casello closed Public Audience. 5. ADMINISTRATIVE A. Appoint eligible members of the community to serve in vacant positions on City advisory boards.

CONSENT AGENDA January 20, 2015 Matters in this section of the Agenda are proposed and recommended by the City Manager for "Consent Agenda" approval of the action indicated in each item, with all of the accompanying material to become a part of the Public Record and subject to staff comments A. PROPOSED RESOLUTION NO. R15 -003 - Approve removal of one Red Light Camera Magistrate. B. PROPOSED RESOLUTION NO. R15 -004 - Approve Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funding in the amount of $100,000 for Copper Top Brewery LLC for the purpose of purchasing equipment for the business which will result in local job creation; and authorize the Mayor to sign the Agreement. Vice Mayor Casello had pulled Item 6.13 for discussion. He inquired what - the return on investment would be for the City. Octavia Sherrod, Community Development Manager, replied the business would produce above minimum wage jobs and employ members of the community. Matthew Cox, owner and Brew Master of Copper Top Brewery, a resident of Boynton for 15 years and Alfred Lettera, 528 Squire Drive in Wellington were present. A forecast of the types of positions was submitted. The brew house would include full time labor with five people employed in year one. The tasting room would have about eight people and then administrative staff of two. Year two could have eight full time people in the brew house supporting the manufacturing with educated professionals. It is estimated to have 10 in the tasting room that would result in four administrative staff. The third MEETING MINUTES REGULAR CITY COMMISSION BOYNTON BEACH, FL January 20, 2015 year would involve10 employees in the brew house, 12 in the tasting room and six office staff. The calculations have been substantiated with the community to illustrate how the manufacturing will add to the additional jobs. Local distributors were consulted to determine potential capacity in the market and sold the estimates to the investors supporting the business. Vice Mayor Casello was concerned that $100,000 out of the total funds of $185,000 was significant for only one company. Ms. Sherrod explained, by Housing and Urban Development standards, more jobs were being created for the dollars spent than mandated. A minimum requirement, according to the federal guidelines, would be three or four jobs. Local non - profits that train low- income people would be consulted to bring productive people back into society. Nancy Byrne, Development Director, pointed out it is a very scientific approach to brewing beer. It is a lengthy, convoluted process to obtain the funding and be on a continuing reporting basis back to City staff about job production. All of the equipment had to be made in the USA. It is not easy to qualify for the funding. Commissioner McCray questioned what the recourse would be if the business did not survive. Ms. Byrne explained the equipment is the leverage for the loan. Vice Mayor Casello supported the brewery business. Ms. Byrne interjected the monies had been allocated for three years without an applicant. Commissioner McCray asked if the equipment could be used for production of drinks other than beer. Mr. Altera interjected the boiler was sourced from California and cost $30,000 and the chiller was from Oregon for $35,000. Their business plan also included contingency plans for contract manufacturing for other breweries that do not have the capacity needed. It could be used to make root beer or seltzer water. The business plan had been well thought out. David Katz, 67 Midwood Lane, advised he was not against the project, but was concerned about the monies being used from - the CDBG Grant based on prior experience. In relation to the job estimations, anticipation is a "gray" word, but he hoped the jobs created would be more substantial than minimum wage. He understood the applicant was not required to hire residents of Boynton Beach. He noted there is a requirement for quarterly reporting to the Commission and he hoped that would be mandatory. Ms. Sherrod agreed there were checks and balances. She clarified the prior poor experience referred to was not funding from Boynton Beach CDBG funds. January 20, 2015 Motion Commissioner McCray moved to approve the request. Commissioner Fitzpatrick seconded the motion. The motion passed unanimously. C. Approve addition of the following classifications to the Pay Plan: Crime Scene Investigator 1, Crime Scene Investigator 11, and Crime Scene Investigator Ill. D.
