B. Authorize reimbursement of $825 to Scully's Market due to the successful completion of the store's fa~de improvements and consideration of additional submittal Oty Manager Willis reported that this item was placed on the agenda under Oty Manager's Report for consideration of additional reimbursement for improvements that Mr. Scully is not entitled to under Phase I of the Fa~ade Grant Program. He is seeking reimbursement under Phase n. Vice Mayor Jaskiewicz confirmed with City Manager Willis that the City's reimbursement is limited to exterior improvements under the Fa~ade Grant Program. Vice Mayor Jaskiewicz noted that many of the improvements were not related to exterior improvements. 5 MEmNG MINUTES _ REGULAR CITY COMMISS~ ~ BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA JANUARY S, 1999 Mayor Taylor realized that some of the improvements predated the program. Therefore, he was not in favor of setting a precedent by authorizing reimbursement for those improvements. He confirmed that he would support the $825 reimbursement recommended by staff. City Manager Willis advised that the date of Mr. Scully's award letter was January 28, 1998. Phase II of the Fat;ade Improvement Program began on December 1, 1998. Commissioner 'Titcomb questioned whether Mr. Scully was making improvements concurrently with discussions of Phase II being implemented and perhaps it was his assumption that his expenses would be recoverable. Oty Manager Willis said she was unable to speculate on that. Vice Mayor Jaskiewicz reported that there is another business in the downtown area that would also like reimbursement for improvements if Mr. Scully's request were granted. Mayor Taylor reiterated that this would set a precedent that he is opposed to. Motion Vice Mayor Jaskiewicz moved to approve the reimbursement. of $825. Mayor Pro Tern lillman seconded the motion that eamed unanimously. VI. PUBUC AUDIENCE: Herb Suss expressed his desire for the Oty to provide the Police Officers with a pay plan. He feels too many qualified Police Officers have left the Oty and more Officers are planning to leave this month. He does not want the safety of the dtizens compromised. He further recommended that the firefighters' salaries be brought in line and suggested a tax increase if necessary to accomplish this. Mayor Taylor feels the Police Department is aware of the fact that the Oty Commission shares Mr. Suss' sentiments. He explained that the Oty must work within the law to negotiate with the Police Department and to compensate them for the job they do. He reported that a tentative agreement has been reached with the Police Department relative to the pay scale. Dee Zibelll. 440 Ocean Parkway. attended the Ocean Ridge Town meeting last evening when they passed a beach Ordinance that requires the Oty of Boynton Beach to apply for a permit for events held at our beach. This Ordinance also requires a $1,000 security bond for each event and insurance coverage of no less than $500,000. Ms. Zibelll questioned how the Town of Ocean Ridge could demand these requirements on property that belongs to the City of Boynton Beach. She further questioned why the residents of Ocean Ridge are paying only $10 for a beach decal. She recommended that the Oty of Boynton Beach charge the Town of Ocean Ridge for use of our land next to their Town Hall. Mayor Taylor advised that he learned of this Ordinance this morning when he read about it in the newspaper. He intended to discuss this issue later in the meeting. However, he directed the City Attorney to investigate the legality of the Town of Ocean Ridge passing an Ordinance 6 MEmNG MINUTES _ REGULAR cnv COMMISS ~ BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA JANUARY S, 1999 that controls activity on our property. Mayor Taylor is opposed to this Ordinance and believes it is ridiculous. Sunnv Garcia reminded the Oty Commissioners of his previous recommendation to construct a track around the football field at Hester Park. He stated that four lanes would fit in that location. He suggested that the City build the track so that the children would not have to travel to Congress Middle School for this activity. John Wildner, Parks Superintendent, advised that he and Wally Majors investigated the possibility of constructing this track as recommended by Mr. Garcia and determined that there is inadequate space around the football field for the track. Although four lanes would fit, there is not enough space beyond the four Janes to meet requirements. Messrs. Wildner and Majors have been in contact with track coaches who are looking forward to the new high school in Quantum Park since it will have a track available. George Brown. 213 NE gtlt Avenue. explained that he bought this property in February of 1997 and has been working on improvements since that time. No water has ever been used on the property since he purchased it; however, he has received a bill in excess of $800. He advised that prior to purchasing the property, he made sure there were no liens or outstanding bills owed on the property. Although he has spoken with Robin Butler in August, the Oty Manager's Office and others, only a minor adjustment has been and he continues to receive this high bill. He requested assistance from the Oty Commission. Mayor Taylor advised that the Oty Manager would investigate this situation to find out how the bill got to $800. He explained to Mr. Brown that even when water is not used, the customer would receive a minor bill. Mr. Brown was aware of this fact and willing to pay a minor bill. At Mayor Taylor's request, Mr. Brown provided the following phone numbers: Home (305) 621- 8009 - Work (305) 949-3425 - Beeper (305) 732-3913. VII. PUBUC HEARING: A.

Ordinances - 2nd Reading - PUBUC HEARING 1. Proposed Ordinance No. 099-01 commercial parking lots Re: Prohibiting ear repairs in Attorney Cherof read Proposed Ordinance No. 099-01 by title only. MAYOR TAYLOR ANNOUNCED THE PUBUC HEARING. A service station merchant stated that he understood what the Oty was trying to accomplish with this Ordinance, but questioned whether or not he would be in violation if he provided emergency road service on a vehicle that was broken down in the parking lot. Attorney Cherof explained that the Ordinance speaks to major and minor repair in parking or loading zone areas of commercial property and parking spaces in public parking lots. When the merchant stated his assumption that he would be exempt from the Ordinance in such a case, Attorney Cherof said it did not sound like the merchant would be in violation under such circumstances. He further added that a case-by-case determination of enforcement might be necessary . The same merchant questioned whether the definition of a commercial parking lot applied to his property. Attorney Cherof explained that repair work. could not be done in areas that are depicted as parking areas on a commerdally zoned piece of property with a site plan or master plan that was approved by the Oty. Repair work should take place within repair bays or designated areas - not on paved surfaces designated as parking spaces. Mike Brinkman, 518 Indusbial Avenue, questioned whether a person would be in violation for driving into a service station and opening the hood so that a repairman could check the engine or the oil. Attorney Cherof said the Ordinance does not speak to checking oil or making inspections. It talks about making minor or major repairs. Mr. Brinkman agreed with the intent of the Ordinance, but explained that he works on his boat in a parking space at his commercial parking lot because it does not fit anywhere else. Under this Ordinance, he would be in violation. Attorney Cherof agreed that Mr. Brinkman would be in violation if work were done in a parking space. These areas do not have the proper drainage to contain contaminants that endanger the environment. 8 MEmNG MINUTES REGULAR CITY cOMMISS~ .. BOYNTON BEACH, flORIDA JANUARY 5, 1999 The service station merchant approached the podium again and explained that his parking lot is EPA approved drainage. Therefore, he assumed he would not be in violation if he worked on a vehicle on his property. Attorney Cherot reiterated that the Ordinance prohibits major or minor repairs in designated parking and loading areas. Attorney Cherat recommended that the Building Department be contacted for assistance in determining where designated parking spaces are located on parcels of property. The repair work on the balance of the site would be acceptable. Mayor Taylor explained that the point of this Ordinance is to use common sense. A decision was made by the Commission to eliminate minor or major auto repairs in parking lots in front of auto parts stores, shopping centers or malls. Sal Bambino. owner of Exxon on Federal HiGhwav and Bovnton Beach Boulevard. questioned whether he would be in violation for checking under the hoods of vehicles on his property at the request of a customer. Attorney Cherof reiterated that the Ordinance does not exempt gas stations; however, major and minor- repairs are prohibited in designated parking and loading zones. Mr. Bambino understood the purpose of the Ordinance and explained that in the business owners in the strip malls should be required to clean up in front of their businesses within one to two hours of opening each day. This would eliminate Code violations. Mayor Taylor pointed out that services stations are where people should go for service on their vehicles. Vice Mayor Jaskiewicz added that the Commission's concern was with auto parts stores. The Commissioners do not want people working on their vehicles in parking lots. Mr. Brinkman asked for c1arifieation on who would be dted for a violation. Attorney Cherof explained that either the property owner or the vehicle owner could be cited. The businesses are required to post a notice so that the customer knows those types of repairs are prohibited. Rav Marcinkowski owns a heavy equipment company with a garage. Most of the vehicles do not fit in the building; therefore, work is done on the vehicles outside. The site does not have a marked parking lot. He questioned whether he would be in violation. Attorney Cherof recommended that he contact the Building Department for assistance in determining the designated parking spaces for the site. Motion Vice Mayor Jaskiewicz moved to approve Proposed Ordinance No. 099-01 on second and final reading. Mayor Pro Tem Tillman seconded the motion. Commissioner Oenahan requested that the language of the Ordinance be clarified to specifically pinpoint its original intent to avoid interpretation problems. Attorney Cheraf advised that such language could be added. However, he recommended that if the Ordinance were to be 9 MEmNG MINUTES REGULAR CITY COMMISS N BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA JANUARY 5, 1999 amended, it might be more beneficial to make reference to parking or storage areas as depicted on the site plan or master plan. Older properties may not have an approved site plan to reference and interpretation would then become more difficult. Attorney Cheraf feels the language covers the intent and any Ordinance that is drafted requires administrative interpretation and enforcement. Commissioner litcomb asked whether or not older properties that do not have a site plan would receive relief or technieal assistance prior to being dted. Attorney Cherof said the Oty would work with them administratively to help them identify a specific number of parking spaces required for that business. Mayor Taylor pointed out that Code Compliance is aware of what the Commission is trying to accomplish with this Ordinance. Oty Clerk Sue Kruse polled the vote. The vote was unanimous. B. Ordinances - 1st Reading 1. Proposed Ordinance No. 099-02 Re: Amending Chapter 2 Administration, Article 5, Section 2-91.

Motion Commissioner Oenahan moved to approve Proposed Ordinance No. 099-03 on first reading. Commissioner TItcomb seconded the motion. Mayor Taylor clarified that this Ordinance sets the absence policy for all board except the Planning & Development Board. If three meetings are missed, the member will be notified. On the fourth absence, the member will be replaced. For the Planning & Development Board, the member will be notified on the sixth absence that one additional absence will result in removal from that board. 10 . MEmNG MINUTES REGULAR cnv cOMMIS!. )N BOYNTON BEACH, flORIDA JANUARY 5, 1999 Vice Mayor Jaskiewicz expressed concern that absences are counted for workshop meeting and special meetings.

Proposed Resolution No. R99-04 Re: Authorizing execution of Stipulated Agreement for water and sewer service - Oty of Boynton Beach vs. Milton Geller & Florence Geller et al Attorney Cherof advised that this Resolution was not necessary since the Commission approved the settlement in May.

Therefore, the Commission may want to consider whether or not thic; would be appropriate. Vice Mayor Jaskiewicz re..;ommended establishing a priority method. Vice Mayor Jaskiewicz advised that one of the property owners who agreed to voluntarily participate in this improvement program was not aware of any grant funding, but was still happy to participate. The City promised this property owner sweat equity. Mr. Hallahan is working on the design and Public Works is cutting out macadam. Therefore, the success of this program will be aided by the funds, but it is not dependent on the funds. Commissioner litcomb pointed out that many property owners, especially the smaller property owners, would be happy to upgrade their properties if they could get the assistance that comes with high-paid consultants on larger jobs. Commissioner litcomb would support extending the term of the ad hoc committee so that they can meet on December 9th, but would not support extending it indefinitely. He also expressed concern about mixing committee members with staff operations internally. He would prefer creating a special project permit team on staff that would look at these projects. The ad hoc committee can later review this team's performance and make changes if necessary. Commissioner litcomb would also like feedback from the community beyond this committee because there are many properties that would benefit from this assistance. Vice Mayor Jaskiewicz advised that this program would be publicized in our next Visions, News and Views newsletter. She would like an entire page of the newsletter devoted to this program. Mayor Taylor said he would be more comfortable if these projects were sent directly to staff rather than a committee because some of the committee members might want to apply for assistance. He further recommended that if this is a separate program, establishment of a dollar limit that the City is willing to match per project is required. Consensus - . There was consensus of the Commission to bring this issue back at the next meeting. VI. PUBUC AUDIENCE: None VII. PUBUC HEARING: A.

" 8 MEETING MINUTES REGULAR CITY COMMISSION BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA NOVEMBER 17, 1998 VIII. BIDS: None IX. DEVELOPMENT PLANS: None x. NEW BUSINESS: A. Public/Private Partnership on Boynton Beach Boulevard Promenade Commissioner Titcomb advised that several members of the community approached him with the idea of a public/private partnership with regard to the Boynton Beach Boulevard Promenade. He reminded the Commissioners of the CRA's recent action to appropriate funds for redevelopment projects. One of those projects is the Boynton Beach Boulevard Promenade. During the last workshop meeting, there was discussion about staff creating design plans for various projects. From information received from the community, Commissioner litcomb began focusing on the intersection of Boynton Beach Boulevard and Federal Highway. The timing might be such that multiple properties in the area as well as plans for Boynton Beach Boulevard Promenade may be able to be married together through a public/private partnership due to the potential to implement the first quarter of the Boynton Beach Boulevard Promenade. This is the area of the promenade where the City will have the most involvement (the marina quadrant and - the drainage ponds). Commissioner Titcomb requested feedback from City Attorney Cherof regarding the possibility of looking at a public/private partnership to help seed, with the funds already appropriated, the start of the Boynton Beach Boulevard Promenade at the western end. This could create a statement for the downtown area. This could work in conjunction with private developers who would consider buying properties and helping renovate the area in turn for incentives. Attorney Cherof explained that there are a number of different models that would be appropriate. E..y'the next meeting, he will gather a list of public/private projects and determine the amount of publiC dollars involved. Commissioner litcomb darified that the area he is referring to would be the area that was discussed for a family fountain and a convertible street where Boynton Beach Boulevard crosses over Federal Highway and east for approximately one or two blocks. Mayor Pro Tem Tillman was agreeable, but felt the private sector should bring forth ideas for the City to review. He does not feel the City should layout any design or idea for a private firm to use for its profit or benefit. However, he does believe the Oty should investigate publicfprivate partnerships. 9 MINUTES OF THE PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT BOARD MEETING HELD IN COMMISSION CHAMBERS, CITY HALL, BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA, ON TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 10,1998 AT 7:00 P.M.

Contract Holder: Location: Chairman Wische requested the Acting Assistant City Attorney to administer the oath to all persons who would be testifying. 2 ME:TING MINUTES PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT BOARD BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA NOVEMBER 10, 1998 Ms. Donna West, of Carnahan-Proctor and Associates, Inc., agent for the applicant, took the podium. Chairman Wische informed Ms. West that there were 21 staff comments and asked if there are any comments to which they did not agree or wished to have clarified. Ms. West stated there were two items that they wished to discuss. The first item is Item 14 dealing with the fuel pumps. Ms. West said that the City Code requires fuel pumps must be located on corner lot properties which are situated on two four-lane roads. Lawrence Road is currently under contract with the County to widen the road and the applicant's attorney discussed this with the City. Ms. West was under the impression that the issue had been clarified to allow the applicant to install pumps once the contract to widen Lawrence Road was let. Ms. West informed members that she had spoken with staff and that staff had agreed, subject to the City Attorney's concurrence, to allow the pumps to be installed once the contract is let. Chairman Wische asked Mr. Rumpf if this assumption was correct and Mr. Rumpf stated it was. Mr. Rumpf stated it was an oversight of the City and that the applicant was relying upon the communication as being approval to have the pumps approved when the agreement was let, rather than being tied into completion of the construction. Mr. Rosenstock inquired if there was a copy of this communication. Mr. Rumpf stated there is a copy of the applicant's communication, but there is no written response from the City. Mr. Rumpf further stated that staffs comments were based upon strict interpretation of the zoning code and that is locationalcriteria. There are aspects of the City Code and regulations that allow certain improvements to be timed with commitments. This is a show of good faith. Mr. Friedland asked about the construction timeframe of the widening of Lawrence Road. Ms. West stated she had spoken with the County's Engineering Department recently and the County should be letting the contract in March, subject to a possible one or two month delay. Mr. Rosenstock stated that the plans did not show much landscaping. Ms. West stated that the landscaping meets the code requirements. Mr. Rosenstock agreed that the plans meet the code requirements, but were lacking and Ms. West inquired what Mr. Rosenstock was looking for with regard to landscaping. Ms. West stated that they would upgrade some of the landscaping if the Board had specific suggestions. Mr. Rosenstock asked Mr. Rumpf if the Planning Department adheres to the theme that this Board is trying to set with regard to enhanced landscaping on all projects. Mr. 3 MEETiNG MINUTES PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT BOARD BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA NOVEMBER 10, 1998 Rumpf 3tatea he tries to encourage these themes, but until they are written in the Code, the revie'lIer may not be as familiar with those requirements. Mr. Rumpf stated if this Board has specific suggestions with regard to landscape enhancements, they should be specified in order for them to be placed into the record. Chairman Wische asked the applicant what other staff item she wished to address and she replied Item 19. This item deals with the height of the buildings. The plans currently show the building at 20' and the canopy at 25'. The design of the building shows that the canopy overlaps the roof of the main building to provide coverage to pedestrians. Ms. West stated this is a typical design prototype that 7 -Eleven uses. Ms. West stated that the applicant needs an 18' clearance because tanker trucks require this amount of clearance. Originally the canopy would have been lower, but the applicant was requested to provide barrel tile on top of the canopy, which increased the height. Also, Ms. West stated that if the canopy remains on the north side of the building, it would not be visible to the residents to the south. Mr. Rumpf stated this is the first commercial entity going into the area and will set a tone. Overall the design has some attractive features. Staff has tried to keep the project as toned down as possible by limiting the striping. Ms. Frazier inquired if the lighting would be the same type of lighting as in the Amoco gas station at Congress Avenue. Mr. Rumpf stated that the lighting will be the same as the station at the northwest corner of Congress and Woolbright and would be limited to the same maximum intensity. Also. Mr. Rumpf stated that the lighting fixtures had to be recessed or covered. Mr. Dube inquired what the expiration date was of the last extension. Mr. Rumpf stated there was oniy one time extension. Mr. Dube questioned whether the applicant was within the time limit of their time extension. Mr. Rumpf stated that after the time extension took place, it was followed up by platting, which vests the project. Mr. Dube also inquired if the School t30ard had been notified and if the City received any comment. Mr. Rumpf stated there has been no comments received. Mr. Dube noted that :he project was across the street from a high school. Vice Chair Reed stated that some of the existing landscaping would be moved and repositioned and these are mature trees. Vice Chair Reed stated that there is a good possibility that these trees will die. Vice Chair Reed inquired if the trees die, is there a provision that they be replaced. Mr. Rumpf stated there is a tree preservation plan that tries to match size or value. Mr. Rumpf is uncertain if the replaced tree would have to be of "com para ole , size and will check with the Forester. 4 MEETING MINUTES PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT BOARD BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA NOVEMBER 10, 1998 Mr. Rosenstock stated that the trees that had been removed can be replaced with trees of a much smaller size as long as the value of the tree is replaced, not the size of the tree. Mr. Rumpf stated that the Board could insert this comment and state that trees would have to be replaced with comparable size trees. Ms. West stated that some of the trees on the property had been trees from a nursery and the trees were not intended to remain on the site. The trees were not on the property naturally and were intended to be moved since they were nursery stock. Ms. West stated if the applicant meets the tree code, the applicant is trying to maintain what was originally nursery stock. Vice Chair Reed stated that the trees were part of the landscape plan. Ms. West did not think it would be possible to purchase mature size trees. Vice Chair Reed said it should be a condition that the expired trees need to be replaced to maintain the density of the landscaping. It was suggested that this be included in the motion. Mr. Dube stated that this would have to be included in the next motion, which is the Master Plan Modification. The first motion is the Conditional Use. Mr. Rumpf stated that both motions should be considered and that the Master Plan Modification should be voted upon first. Vice Chair Reed noted that the plans indicate that City water be used for irrigation. Mr. Rumpf stated that if any other source is available, the applicant is to avoid using City water for irrigation. Mr. Rumpf also stated that is determined by Utilities and City water should not be utilized for irrigation. Motion Mr. Rosenstock moved that the 7 -Eleven at Grove Plaza, located at the southeast corner of Hypoluxo Road and Lawrence Road, parcel A of the proposed Grove Plaza subdivision, request for conditional use to construct a 2,960 square foot service station with a convenience store on 1.18 acres of land be denied. Mr. Dube seconded the motion. Chairman Wische stated this is a public hearing and inquired if anyone in the audience wished to address the matter. Hearing none, Chairman Wische closed the public hearing. Chairman Wische asked if there were any other comments from the Board. 5 MEETING MINUTES PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT BOARD BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA NOVEMBER 10, 1998 Mr. Friedlanc expressed concerns that the school is close to the project and that magazines. cigarettes and beer are sold which is not an appropriate atmosphere for students to frequent. Also, Mr. Friedland questioned whether the distance from the school is legal. Chairman Wische requested that all Board members in favor of the denial signify by saying "aye". Denial carried 7-0. Mr. Rumpf restated with regard to Item 3 that City water may not be used to irrigate when other sources are readily available. B. SUBDIVISION Master Plan Modification 1.

Mr. Dube noted that once the road is constructed, it would no longer be a Conditional Use. Mr. Rumpf stated that Conditional Use Approval is required for the sale of gasoline.
