F Meeting Minutes City Commission Meeting Boynton Beach, Florida Januaw 2,2001 TZ. PUBLTC AUDTENCE: TNDMDUAL SPEAKERS WTLL BE LTMTTED TO 3-MTNUTE PRESENTATIONS Harold Kelman, 54 Sausalito Drive, Boynton Beach urged the Commission to give positive attention to the Sausalito Place agreement when it appeared on the January 16, 2001 agenda. He spoke on behalf of the residents when he stated that they had been waiting for ~vo and a half years for the homes, roadways, and landscaping to be completed. Mr. Bressner stated that he supported Mr. Kelman and that he was pushing to get it completed before the next meeting. Lori Brinson, 611-8 N.E. 12 Terrace, Mariners Village, Boynton Beach, spoke of a collapsed north-south seawall that was being maintained by the City of Boynton Beach. Mariners Village owns the east-west seawall, and Manatee Bay owns an east- west seawall on their side. Their seawall collapsed in April of 1999 and they have had seawall problems since the autumn of 2000. She asked if anything was being done about the seawall or about the drainage problem on N.E. 12 Avenue? They had not begun to fix their seawall because the City's north-south seawall had not been fixed. Mayor Broening stated that the City would give Ms. Brinson an answer to this issue in writing. Mr. Bressner asked Mr. Sugerman, who had been working on the problem, to give Ms. Brinson a verbal update during the meeting. Warren Timm, 130 N.E. 26th Avenue, Village Royale on the Green, Boynton Beach, stated that he wanted dollar amounts on some Consent Agenda items whose dollar amounts were not listed. He discovered that Consent items were not discussed in public audience. He reminded the Commissioners that the people of Boynton Beach elected them and that it was their duty to answer questions when people asked them. Mayor Broening said the agenda was published well in advance and if questions arose, anyone was free to approach their Commissioner, the Mayor, or the City, to ask those questions. He offered to take calls at home and stated that his number was published. He said that items were often pulled from the Consent Agenda for discussion and he believed that some would be pulled at this meeting. He said their procedure was a well- known one that mirrored similar procedures in municipalities, counties, states, and the federal government. Mayor Broening closed the public audience. III.

(Utilities Account 401-2821-536-31-90) Meeting Minutes City Commission Meeting Boynton Beach, Florida Januaw 2,2001 Motion Commissioner Black made a motion to approve the Consent Agenda, as amended. Commissioner Fisher seconded the motion that carried 4-0. Consent Agenda Ttern C (1) Commissioner Black asked if the "before and after" pictures had been done for this item? Michael Rumpf, Planning Director, stated that they had not but that they would be included in future projects. Commissioner Black also questioned the accuracy of the hourly rate of $16.80 quoted in the overall cost of project administration, believing that it was too Iow and not representative of the salaries of the persons working on the project. Mr. Bressner agreed, saying that in the interest of accuracy on future projects, the actual projected hours by job classification should be used as the basis for this figure. Motion Commissioner Ferguson made a motion to approve Consent Ttem C (1). Commissioner Black seconded the motion that carried 4-0. Consent Ttem D (1), Gayhart Variance, Lot 376 Block 3 Commissioner Black stated that the Code on the City's books said that the lot had to be sixty feet, and wondered how the City Commission or the Planning and Development Board could say "yes" to the variance if the lot were not up to the proper standard and approve it if, later on, the applicant were able to work out an agreement to purchase an additional ten feet? He did not believe that it met the hardship criteria, ft was his understanding that when there were older, non-conforming lots such as this, the 75% rule would apply. :If government changed it over the years from 50 to 60 feet, as in this case, there would be grounds for leniency in the matter, but that this was not in the City's Code at present. Commissioner Black asked to hear from the public and also staff's reasoning in supporting the variance. Mayor Broening stated that the Ordinance did allow the applicant to purchase additional land to meet the Code criteria. He expressed concerns that centered on the lack of citywide overlay zoning that could correct this type of problem and allow property owners to develop in those areas. Mr. Bressner stated, also, that the provision of the applicant's negotiating purchase of sufficient property to bring the property up to conforming size was in the current Code and had been the basis for the approval by the Planning and Development Board. Mr. Bressner asked staff to take a look at the Zoning Code and to consider adopting a provision in the Zoning Code that would reflect the 75% rule which provided a "safety net" for those who owned property on which the government had enacted zoning changes which negatively impacted their ability to develop their property. Meeting Minutes City Commission Meeting Boynton Beach. Florida January 2, 2001 Lee Wische, 1302 S.W. 8th Street, Boynton Beach, spoke as Chairman of the Planning and Development Board, stating that when he became aware that the two parties involved in the issue had not come to any agreement as to the purchase of the additional land, he advised the applicant to let the issue be tabled, try to purchase the land, and come back before the Board at that time. He and another member of the Board voted "nay" on the project but were out-voted. Commissioner Fisher asked if the parties had reached an agreement since the Planning and Development Board meeting and the recent updates? Mr. Rumpf said he had received notification, in writing, that they could not come to terms on the sale. Mr. Rumpf stated that the variance was granted if they were unable to obtain the ten feet. Commissioner Fisher asked Mr. Rumpf why this was considered a hardship case? Mr. Rumpf replied that this was an original lot and that the hardship was based on the Code itself and the five or six different criteria that had to be met. Their research into the original minutes that were recorded when the Code amendments were put in place, including the non-conforming criteria, indicated the Commission at that time recognized the fact that too stringent a standard would make those lots undevelopable and would be a hardship. Non-conforming criteria went into place to create the situation in which they would still be developable. Commissioner Fisher and Mayor Broening both asked if the current property owners had purchased the land after 1987, knowing that it was undevelopable without asking for a variance? Mr. Rumpf said the matter was discussed with the builder who had acquired the property. Commissioner Fisher said that the hardship was with the original owner, not the new owner who knew coming into it that a variance would have to be sought. Mr. Rumpf agreed and said that there would not be a variance requirement if it were the original property owner. Mayor Broening asked Susan Gay, the applicant for the variance, to come forward and speak, if present. Susan 6ayhart, 106 Lisa Lane, Lake Worth, stated that prior to purchasing the lot in question, she came to the City and was given a document in writing which showed that even though the lot was non-conforming, one lot would be developable at its current size, but not several. She stated that she wanted to purchase a lot there to build a home with a value of over $100,000. She made her decision based on the fact that the house next door was able to build on a fifty-foot lot and because of the statements made by the Planning and Zoning Department. Mayor Broening asked Ms. Gayhart if Planning and Zoning told her it would be o.k. to build on the lot or that she would need to apply for a variance? She did not recall exactly what the Planning and Zoning Department said, only that they had said she could get a variance on one lot for 50 feet, but not several lots. She was only asking for the variance on one lot. After considerable discussion, the Commission had several concerns about the issue and believed the item should be tabled. Meeting Minutes City Commission Meeting Boynton Beach, Florida Januaw 2,2001 Motion Commissioner Black made a motion to table Consent Agenda Ttem D (1). Commissioner Fisher seconded the motion with discussion for the sake of anyone who had come specifically to speak on the subject. Mayor Broening indicated that if anyone had a compelling reason to speak to come forward but if not, to hold his or her comments until the issue came up again on a later agenda. He stated that people could write to the City with further information as well. Ms. Dina L. Castellano explained her reason for speaking and Mayor Broening allowed it. Dina L. Castellano, 715 N.E.9th Avenue, Boynton Beach, stated that on March 27, she drove by and saw four empty lots next to St. Marks, where she wanted her daughter to attend school. She entered into a contract on Lot 37. When Ms. Castellano saw it was not being developed, she switched to Lot 38, since she wanted the first available home. Ms. Gayhart knew that she had a 50-foot lot. She knew she would get the only variance that was allowed and it was under Fairway Tsles. She stated that Fairway Tsles sold the lot to her as a private owner so she could get the variance under the old Code. She did not know until tonight that her lot was 50 feet because she was told it was the same as the one next door which was 60 feet. She said this was her error. She believed that Ms. Gayhart was going to turn around and sell the property. She was against this lot being built and wanted to go on record that she would buy the lot because now the lot she purchased was out of conformance. The motion to table carried 4-0. Consent Agenda Ttem D (2), Boynton Terrace Apartments Commissioner Black stated that the true ownership of the property had been a subject of interest for some time. Meetings with people in the development surfaced a need for on-site daycare, a sign identifying who they were, and a request for the owner(s) to help them form a neighborhood association so they would have a voice within their community and within the City of Boynton Beach as a whole. Their questions and requests fell on deaf ears. He stated that the backup mentioned a security gate being put in but no guard. He wondered if it would be a key gate or just a chain link fence going up around 90% of the property? The whole idea was to prevent access and drive- through by non-owners. Commissioner Black asked to speak to the applicant, if he or she was present. Michael McPhilips, Heritage Companies, 5507 N. Atlantic Avenue, Cocoa Beach, Florida, assumed the podium to answer Commissioner Black's questions. Commissioner Black said that the backup stated 60 percent of the residents used public transportation and the other 40 percent had only one car with a small number of two- car families. He said that when staff conducted the survey of cars in the parking lot, it was in the middle of the afternoon at 2:00 p.m. Tf someone did live there and did have a vehicle, chances are good that they were at work. Mr. McPhilips stated that they had Meeting Minutes City Commission Meeting Boynton Beach, Florida January 2,2001 studied the parking and did not believe the reduction would stress the property. There were other places where additional parking could be built. In reference to the wall around the property, Mr. McPhilips stated that their plan did not spell out the wall but in previous conversations with Mr. Hawkins, the subject had come up and it was their intent to do this. They were not talking about chain link but would do whatever the Code allowed such as a five-foot stucco wall or wrought iron. They were open to ideas. The entranceways to the project would be card-access, controlled gated areas. He was not saying the new project would not have a guard, but it was not in his authority to guarantee that on the part of the new ownership. He would be the contractor and the developer if the project were approved and if they were successful in obtaining State funding. He could commit to certain aspects such as alt new cabinets, new carpeting, and new roofs. Commissioner Black asked if the sale of Boynton Terrace were contingent on this deal going through? Mr. IvlcPhilips said they would be the contractor and developer and had been approached to be part owners but they had not negotiated this yet. The present ownership had a ! percent general partner interest in a 99 percent limited partnership. The 99 percent would change hands and the current owners were really tax people looking for tax benefits. Mr. IvlcPhilips stated he was not part of the present ownership and never had been. The present owners hired them to try to come up with a plan to totally rehabilitate Boynton Terrace. He said an absentee partnership from California owned the property as a tax benefit. Tf the proposed plan went through, there would be 99 percent new ownership. Commissioner Black asked IVlr. McPhilips to provide the names of the people that owned Boynton Terrace and he said he would do so. Commissioner Black asked if their group had met with the people who lived in Boynton Terrace to ask what they would like on the property? IVlr. ivlcPhilips said they had not gone door to door there, but had asked the current management group to speak to the residents and ask questions. Mr. McPhilips spoke of the plans they had for the area including a new clubhouse, fifteen computers for the resident's use and so forth. Commissioner Black said this particular demographic may have preferred daycare to computers. He would like to believe that either the absentee owners, his company, or the new company would come in and ask the residents what they wanted to make them stay. The current message was that they wanted to leave. Mr. McPhilips spoke of the many streetlights that were out and that it needed to be made safe and sanitary. He thought daycare was an excellent idea but the program they were applying to for money did not have criteria for that. Commissioner Fisher said putting $4 million into the property would probably result in the rents being raised. IVlr. McPhilips said the rents would not change and that one of the sources for funding was the Iow income tax credit program. Tf they were successful in obtaining the tax credits, they would be sold and syndicated and the equity raised from that would be used to rehabilitate Boynton Terrace. Meeting Minutes City Commission Meeting Boynton Beach, Florida January 2, 2001 Commissioner Ferguson was concerned that having a reduction in the parking spaces from :1.73 down to 90 would be one parking place per unit owner. He did not see how this was possible. As a condo administrator, he knew how important parking spaces were to people and that this plan left no room for guest parking. He suggested a compromise. Tn the documentation it said that there were :t.4- cars per household in the City of Boynton Beach. Tf these 1.4 parking places were applied to the 90 dwelling units, there would be 126 parking spaces, and this would allow a reduction of about 50 spaces. Commissioner Ferguson was also concerned about setting a precedent On parking space reductions. Mr. McPhilips said the State wanted to see the local community make a contribution of 10 percent towards the total project cost. :If this were a $5M project they would be looking for $500,000 of contributions from the City. They would prefer cash but recognized that not all communities could afford such a cash contribution and accepted other types of contributions. Tn revitalization areas the State allows the use of parking density reductions as a contribution. He stated they were committing that Boynton Terrace would stay affordable in nature on a fifteen-year basis and he thought that would satisfy their need. ff they compromised, the project costs would have to be lowered considerably and they would be unable to do many of the things they now plan to do. IVlr. Bressner referred to the site plan shown him by staff for this project. He asked if the total square footage of the paved 84 space parking reduction would be converted back into green space and a clubhouse? Ts that a square foot to square foot match? Ts it that tight of a site plan? Mr. McPhilips said he did not believe so. Mr. Bressner stated that the idea of providing some amenities and landscaping was a good one and that the tax credit program would require them to hold the property available for income eligible persons, probably using the HUD rent schedule for this particular metropolitan area for a certain period of time. Also, he said, while it was probable that a number of residents did not have cars, the City did not know that for sure. They did not know for a fact that there would not be a parking problem. He did not have a high comfort level with one parking space per unit based on those uncertainties. He believed an analysis of the bedroom units needed to be done along with a survey of the actual ownership of cars in the development to make sure a parking problem was not going to be created. Tt may be that the formula could be in a range from 1.4 to :t.6. This could be balanced by allowing credit on building permits, inspection fees, and other types of "soft" costs that could allow the developer the opportunity to show a "cash type contribution" so the developer and the City could achieve their aims. He wanted to make sure that a project that upgraded the area did not cause problems to the adjoining property owners. He believed they had applied the formula too drastically in bringing it down to one space per unit on the supposition that there were not many people who had access to cars. Mr. Bressner said it was a great project and needed to be looked at. He.asked the Commission to allow Wilfred Hawkins, himself, and Quintus Greene to come up with an alternate formula that would be available to meet the developer's timeline on the grant application and come back to the Commission in two weeks with some answers. He mentioned that the adjoining property owners had some legitimate concerns about l0 Meeting Minutes City Commission Meeting Boynton Beach, Florida Januaw 2,2001 parking on their properties as well. He hoped that the City could come up with an alternate formula that would meet the needs of the people, the developer, and the City. Mr. McPhilips said they had to submit their application no later than February 12, 2001. Mayor Broening had similar expectations and concerns and felt more time was needed to arrive at an equitable conclusion. He liked the project and said it fitted the model of the public/private venture that would move the City forward in the future. Motion Commissioner Ferguson moved to table Consent Agenda :Item D (2) until the next Commission meeting. Commissioner Fisher seconded the motion with discussion. He said that considering what the project could do for the community, he would be willing to go a little below the 1.4 formula if necessary. He thought it was a great project. Mayor Broening suggested that persons wishing to speak defer their comments until the next meeting, but that he would allow anyone having an overriding reason to speak to do so. The motion carried 4-0. Margaret Newton, 701 N.W. 4th Street, stated that she heard the entire conversation and that she was very concerned about density. She wanted to know what would be going in when the parking spaces were removed? She heard the question about green space and she heard an answer that was not an answer. Other cities were moving away from huge areas with large conglomerations of people, and for the City to move towards that under the guise of getting State money to rehabilitate the area was fallacious, she said. She asked the City to be very careful about the density and what was going to happen when the parking spaces disappeared. Mr. Bressner said there would not be any additional dwelling units constructed. Ms. Newton said she wanted to see it in written form, not just as an understanding. Mayor Broening asked the other persons who had submitted cards if they wished to speak. Terry Pereira, Boynton Beach, said that as a homeowner in the area and speaking for some of the older residents who lived there, one of the most important problems at Boynton Terrace was the crime. Concerning the parking spaces, he stated that most of the parking spaces were not used by the residents. He said a card-access gate was needed on the property and that less room to park would tend to keep out the people who did not need to be there. He said the traffic needed to be cut down and that the parking would not be a problem, even with one space per unit. He stated it was a Iow- income place and that the residents did not usually have even one car. The major problem was drugs and if this variance would alleviate that or reduce it significantly, it would be worth the trouble. VT.

Bressner commented that staff had presented a report that requested the date be 'changed from 2002 to 2003 and this was not included in the Ordinance as presented. ,He assumed that the Ordinance would reflect the 2002 date. There were other recommendations made concerning non-substantive but clarifying language changes that were in the December 14, 2000 memo. He asked that between now and the second reading of the Ordinance, legal staff review those and determine whether they 'should be included in the second reading of the Ordinance. ~Commissioner Fisher asked why staff needed an extra year? IVlr. Rumpf stated that the work was substantial in scope and that they had just started on the first project on an :area that was not originally envisioned as having an overlay. There could be up to five or six different areas and separate studies to be conducted. When they first started drafting this language, they put a timeline out to 2005 and when it was presented, 14 Meeting Minutes City Commission Meeting Boynton Beach, Florida Januaw 2,2001 everyone agreed it was too much time. A completion date of 2003 would allow two solid years to complete all the projects and studies, and implement the regulations.

Motion Commissioner Black made a motion to approve Proposed Ordinance No. 01-08. Commissioner Fisher seconded the motion. Mayor Broening noted that there was a straight line on the organization chart that went from the Advisory Boards to the City Manager. He said that it should be under the Commission rather than the City Manager and he proposed this as an amendment to Proposed Ordinance No. 01-08. Commissioner Fisher commented that the liaisons reported to the City Manager and the City Manager forwarded things on to the City Commission. Mayor Broening said that may be so as a practical, administrative matter, but he was speaking of the matter of control which he believed should remain with the Commission. Mayor Broening stated he believed it was the duty of the Commission, via the Charter, to have appointment and oversight responsibility regarding the Advisory Boards. Commissioner Black amended his motion to include putting the Advisory Boards under the Commission. Commissioner Ferguson seconded the amended motion. City Clerk Sue Kruse polled the vote.

The Mayor thanked Commissioner Ferguson and said his remarks were refreshing. Xl'V.

We promote an equal opportunity environment. ReCruitment and Selection. To ensure that we provide the very best talent to the City, we ;onsistently use all available media, newspapers, brochures, job lines, community distribution etc. to recruit and select our employees, many of whom are from right here in the City of Boynton Beach. Personnel Records and Maintenance, All personnel data, including payroll, and per=~onnel information must be maintained in a manner that meets legal, state, and fed{;ral standard, and is easily retrievable.

This information is available to the employee at any time on a business day. i ClaSsification and compensation. Human Resources analyzes the pay classifications thr°~Ughout~ the City continuously. The City maintains parity and equity internally and externally with the labor market. Using market surveys, we compile job specifications and deslgn pay plans that are competitive with other Florida cities. Bedefits Administration: There are over 20 benefit programs, including health options, Iinsurance, retirement, and financial planning which are administered and maintained for the benefit of our employees. Lab~or Relations: The City has 6 labor unions, each of which is subject to a unique set of poli~ies and procedures. Human Resources plays a major role in the collective bargaining team process and is responsible for the administrati°n of contract agreements. Professional DeVelopment's cutting edge program provides employees with an opportunity to increase their skills and knowledge, to achieve appreciable self development, and to pursue their career aspirations. Employees are encouraged to establish qualifications through the acquisition of Certification and Degree programs throUgh higher education institutions.

Candidates will be able to complete all necessary forms over the internet from the comfort of their homes at any hour of the day or night, or to use the many computers throughout the City, in the library and within City Hall, to submit their completed applications for career opportunities. Job Fair The Human Resource department will form a coalition with other organizations to sponsor an annual job fair where citizens can spend the day getting acquainted with the career opportunities available in the city. They will be able to complete job applications on the spot, and have all their questions answered by experts in their field.

Employees will be rated on the level of their performance and will be compensated accordingly. This incentive will inspire employees to go beyond the call of duty and to render superior service to internal and external customers. AGENDA ITEM V. D. 1. LOt 37 Block 3 (Lake Addition to Boynton Beach) FRONT FOOTAGE FOR HOMES ON NE 9th AVENUE BETWEEN FEDERAL HIGHWAY AND NE 7TM STREET South Side of Street North Side of Street 616 NE 9th Ave 65'* 615 NE 9th Ave 78' 620 NE 9th Ave 90'* 621 NE 9th Ave 75' 630 NE 9th Ave 100'* 629 NE 9th Ave 75' 638 NE 9th Ave 90'* 641 NE 9th Ave 175' Vacant Lot 60'* 647 NE 9th Ave 75' 704 NE 9th Ave !10'* 707 NE 9th Ave 100'* 710 NE 9th Ave 90'* 711 NE 9th Ave 50'* 714 NE 9th Ave 75'* 715 NE 9th Ave 50'* 722 NE 9th Ave 75'* 719 NE 9th Ave 62'* 728 NE 9th'Ave 90'* 723 NE 9th Ave 68'* 734 NE 9th Ave 60'* Vacant Lots 120'* Legal Descriptions and Front Footages Were Verified by Homestead Receipt, Property Tax Statement, Survey, or City Records The italicized addresses 711, 715, 719, and 723 NE 9th Avenue were all acquired at the same time for development. They include lots 37, 38, 39, 40, and the West 30' of lot 41 as indicated on the attached plat. Since individual lots measure 50 feet by 122.54 feet, this represents a total of 230 front feet. Residence 723 has a front footage of 68' (the West 30' of Lot 41 and the East 38' of Lot 40) as verified by their survey. That leaves 162 feet. Residence 719 was developed on a 62 foot lot to create the minimum acceptable lot size of 7,500 square feet (122.54 X 62 = 7,597.48 sq. ft.). That leaves 100 front feet out of which the developer chose to create two non-conforming lots. Address 711 NE 9th Ave., Lot 37, is the subject of this evening's agenda item. Since this lot was the first of these lots to be de-mucked, it is obvious what the developer'.s strategy was from the very beginning. From day one they fully intended to do exactly what they did - - build two homes on the smallest lots possible and then build the third as a developer's exception on a 50 ft. lot, not requiring any public notice or variance. That left the final 50 ft. lot, the first one they de-mucked, for which they are now requesting a variance. It is unfortunate that the developer and the City's Building Department did not work together, in the spirit of downtown redevelopment, to build homes on these lots that were, at the very least, consistent with our neighborhood. This developer could easily have divided these 230 front feet into three lots that would have been much more consistent with an average lot size of around 75' for this street, as indicated on the attached plat. Instead the ~ builder chose to develop these lots by building smaller houses on smaller ,lots so as to create the two non-conforming lots. Apparently there is more development profit to be made by creating non-conforming lots so you can build more houses on them. I sincerely hope that our City Commission will recognize this greed-based .strategy for what it is. Please allow this lot to remain unbuildable. Dina iL..Castellano, the owner of adjacent property 715 NE 9~ Ave. has indicated that she would welcome the opportunity to purchase this lot so that her own home will no longer be the one non-conforming lot on our street. Alternately, it might also be a nice location for one of Dan DeCarlo's . neighborhood gardens. Rather than overlooking the concerns of our neighborhood and rewarding the greed of this developer, I would ask that you seek whatever remedies, or ,penalties are spelled out in our City Ordinances for developers that i intentionally create non-conforming properties in order to line their own i pockets. There are still groups of undeveloped lots to the North and South l of our street. I believe that Susan Gayhart and Fairway Isles, Ltd. have an !ownership interest in some of these lots as well. I would also ask that you i review our City Ordinances so that greedy developers will not be able to i adversely impact these areas, or other neighborhoods the way that Susan ! Gayhart and Fairway Isles, Ltd. have impacted ours. Thank you for your consideration.
