Commissioner Aguila recommended discussing Item IX-B.1, "Merging of Children & Youth Advisory Board and Education Advisory Board" prior to making Board appointments. Motion Commissioner Aguila moved to move up Item IX-B.1. the motion, which carried unanimously. IX. NEW BUSINESS: Vice Mayor Matson seconded B. Items for discussion requested by Mayor Pro Tem Matt Bradley 1. Merging of Children & Youth Advisory Board and Education Advisory Board Mayor Pro Tem Bradley said he has met with both Boards regarding his proPosal. At first, the Advisory Board on Children and Youth was opposed; however, the members have had a change of heart and are in favor of the merger. Mayor Pro -2- HZNUTE$ - REGULAR CZTY COHHI$$ION HEETZNG BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA HAY 3, 1994 Tem Bradley is an advocate for education; however, because of a lack of Talent Bank forms, this merger is timely. He requested that a combined Board include all current members of both Boards. Mayor Harmening pointed out that the City has many Boards and such a merger would result in a decrease in that number. In Commissioner Katz' opinion, since the high school issue has been resolved, COBWRA members have lost interest in the Education Advisory Board. Commissioner Katz supports the merger of the two Boards. Commissioner Aguila opposes the merger because the Education Advisory Board lost its momentum. The Education Advisory Board was dedicated to concentrating on education, the School Board and specific schools. If the Boards are combined, he feels their effectiveness will be diluted because they will be involved in too many other issues. It is Commissioner Aguila's opinion that Boynton Beach was very effective in its dealings on the Poinciana School and new high school issues because of the continual efforts of the Education Advisory Board. Vice Mayor Matson is also opposed to the merger as are some Education Advisory Board members. A suggestion was made to her that the Education Advisory Board should be an "on call" Board. Vice Mayor Matson feels the Advisory Board on Children and Youth is very active and she does not want to overload them with too many tasks. Vice Mayor Matson feels the members who requested seats on the Education Advisory Board should remain on that Board, and those with a calling for the Advisory Board on Children and Youth should remain on that Board. She feels the two Boards should remain separate. Further, she opposes the appoint- ment of COBWRA members to the Advisory Board on Children and Youth. Commissioner Katz felt valid remarks were made by Vice Mayor Matson and Commis- sioner Aguila. Therefore, he changed his opinion about the merger. He sug- gested removing the COBWRA appointments from City Boards. Vice Mayor Matson agreed since there is no reciprocity. Mayor Harmening pointed out that COBWRA usually sends a representative to all of the City's meetings to keep abreast of what is happening in the City. Ho~:l on Commissioner Aguila moved that we not follow the recommendation to join the two Boards, and added that we should work with them to help them get back their momentum. Vice Mayor Matson seconded the motion. Mayor Pro Tem Bradley said he is a strong advocate for both Boards and momentum is a key issue. He is very pleased with the Commission's support for both Boards and is anxious to get both Boards moving in the right direction. The motion carried 5-0. City Attorney Cherof was directed to draft an Ordinance eliminating the COBWRA members. Commissioner Aguila requested information from the City Manager on the pros and cons of this move. Mayor Pro Tem Bradley tabled his Alternate appointment to the Education Advisory Board. -3- HINUTES - REGULAR CITY COMMISSION HEETING BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA MAY 3, 1994 Commissioner Aguila tabled his Regular appointment to the Community Redevelop- ment Advisory Board. He asked Ann Ford, Downtown Coordinator, to assist him in finding a member for this Board.

Mayor Pro Tem Bradley seconded the motion, which carried unanimously. Commissioner Aguila advised that he reviewed the new Task Order and Services Proposal by CH2M Hill, and met with Messrs. Guidry and Law of the Utilities Department. The proposal is much more reasonable. He added stipulations that it is CH2M Hill's responsibility to be available for questions or clarification of their documents without any additional charge, and they are to be available to review shop drawings that normally come with the project. With regard to shop drawings, Tom NcCormlck of CH2M Hill said the City will do the first cut on the shop drawings. If there are any questions, CH2M Hill will answer those questions at no additional fee. Notion Commissioner Aguila moved to approve Task Order #23 and Task Order #23A with the amendment to review the shop drawings as set forth at this meeting. Vice Mayor Matson seconded the motion, which carried unanimously. D. Authorization to purchase Computerized Fleet Nanagement Package for Public Works - Vehicle Maintenance Division City Manager Miller advised that in reviewing Public Works Memorandum #94-127, the second paragraph discusses what cannot be done by the current CAMEO system. The last two paragraphs advise what can be done with the FASTER System. Commissioner Aguila feels this proposal is in the right direction. However, he is concerned that there may be a sacrifice of long-term savings with immediate cost effectiveness. He has learned that one of our neighboring cities is reviewing a bar code sytem which has been used by a number of municipalities with good results. He suggested Mr. Carel Fisher attend a demonstration of that system prior to approval of this system. If the results of that demonstration prove that the FASTER System is better, Commissioner Aguila will support it. Mr. Fisher advised that the bar code system has drawbacks. In a shop floor environment, the drawbacks involve dirt and grease. West Palm Beach has effec- tively used the system proposed for nine years. Coral Gables swears by this system and it is used by the South Florida Water Management District without complaint. This system has an additional addendum that will use bar codes for parts inventory. In warehouse environments, the bar code system is excellent. Mr. Fisher stated that he will attend a demonstration if so directed, but will approach it with prejudice because of the costs involved. The bar code system will cost $50,000+ for the hardware and software as opposed to $16,000. Notion Vice Mayor Matson moved to accept staff's recommendation. Mayor Pro Tem Bradley seconded the motion. -5- H~NUTES - REGULAR CITY COHHISSION HEETING BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA I~Y 3, 1994 Commissioner Aguila questioned the cost of $1,455 for annual support services. Mr. Fisher advised that the additional training is optional and there will be an ongoing maintenance fee as in all software programs. If it is necessary to have the additional training, Mr. Fisher will bring that request back to the City Commission for approval. City Manager Miller advised that the additional train- ing will probably not be necessary since West Palm Beach has offered to assist US, The motion carried 5-0. III. CONSENT AGENDA: A. Nlnutes: 1. Regular City Commission Meeting Hlnutes of Apr11 19, 1994 Mayor Harmening referred to Page 4, third paragraph from the bottom, and corrected the typographical error in the word experience. B. Bids - Recommend Approval - All expenditures are approved In the 1993194 Adopted Budget 1. Replacement of Rldlng Lawn Hower - Parks Department As outlined in Recreation & Park Memorandum #94-156 dated April 18, 1994, the Parks Division recommends the purchase of a Cushman Riding Mower, Model 898804 at a cost of $6,727 through State Contract. Although bids were received on this item, the City will realize a net savings of $2,000 by using the State Contract. 2. Extension of annual contract for Safety ClothlnglEqulpment for one (1) year As outlined in Purchasing Agent Lana Koester's memorandum to J. Scott Miller dated April 26, 1994, the Purchasing Department is requesting approval of a one (1) year extension for the bid "Annual Contract For Safety Clothing/Equipment". At the Commission meeting of April 20, 1993, this bid was awarded in two (2) parts to Ritz Safety Company of Pompano Beach, Florida, and Allied Safety, Inc. of Orlando, Florida. Both companies have provided the City with various safety clothing and equip- ment throughout the year in a satisfactory manner. The bid expired as of April 20th, but the City has an option to renew the bid since both companies have agreed to those conditions. C. Resolutions: Proposed Resolution No. R94-76 Re: Surety Release - Platina Loop Road and Village I Water and Sewer Systems {west of Military Trail and north of Boynton Beach Boulevard) 0 Proposed Resolution No, R94-77 Re: Full surety release for Stanford Park PUD and roadway known as Newport Place {south of Hypoluxo Road, immediately west of High Ridge Road} -6- M~NUTES - REGULAR CITY COMMISSION MEETING BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA HAY 3, 1994 e Proposed Resolution No, R94-78 Re: Authorize execution of transportation agreement between the City of Boynton Beach and the Palm Beach County School Board reference bus service for summer day camp e Proposed Resolution No, R94-79 Re: Authorize execution of three special warranty deeds conveying City-owned property to Elouise Prince Jones, Coretta D. Newton and Brenda Peterson for new home construction as participants in the City of Boynton Beach In-Fill Housing Program Attorney Cherof advised that there is a typographical error in the deed. Mayor Harmening questioned whether or not the three individuals involved currently live in the City. Wilfred Hawkins, Assistant to the City Manager, advised that only one of the three individuals is a City resident. Mayor Harmening said that in the past, he has supported this program, but felt it should be only for those who live in the City. He will vote against the two out-of-town people and in the future, he will campaign against giving lots to outsiders. Mr. Hawkins advised that on a County-wide basis, there have been discussions about the ability to find people who can qualify for these programs. When the program began, Boynton Beach residents were sought; however, after going through hundreds of individuals, it became obvious that it was extremely difficult to get credit approvals and bank financing. In order to move the program forward, it was necessary to allow outside participation. Mayor Harmening reiterated that he is not in favor of subsidizing anyone from outside the City to come live in this City. He asked that Proposed Resolution No. R94-79 be pulled from the Consent Agenda to be handled separately. City Manager Miller recommended that the Commission make a motion to eliminate the two out-of-City residents and approve the one City resident. He further recommended that a policy decision be made by the Commission with regard to this program. In response to Commissioner Katz' question, Mr. Hawkins advised that of the remaining two people, one lives out of town but works in the City, and the other either lives in West Palm Beach or Delray Beach. Commissioner Katz felt that, in principle, the Mayor was correct in his opinion; however, the bottom line is to build the house and get the property to produce taxes for the City. Mr. Hawkins also pointed out that by cutting these people off at this point, the City will be facing a serious public relations problem because they have been waiting for years. Mayor Harmening agreed to support this Resolution at this time. Commissioner Aguila feels the important factor is to get the lots occupied so that they can provide tax revenue. This program should make every effort to encourage occupation by current City residents, but he is not supportive of denying a potential candidate and losing tax revenue. -7 - #~NUTES - REGULAR CITY COMMISSION MEETING BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA HAY 3, 1994 Mayor Harmening agreed to leave this Resolution on the Consent Agenda. A consensus to limit this program to Boynton Beach residents only could not be achieved. D. Approval of Bllls A copy of these bills is attached to the original set of minutes on file in the City Clerk's Office. Commissioner Aguila questioned whether Bill #27 and Bill #39 from Ritz Safety Equipment are one and the same. City Manager Miller will check on it for dupli- cation. If it is a duplicate, the error will be extracted. E. Approve dlsposal of records - Clt~ Clerk's Offlce As outlined in City Clerk Sue Kruse's Memorandum No. 94-53, the State has approved Records Destruction Request #271. Hotlon Commissioner Aguila moved to accept the Consent Agenda. Mayor Pro Tem Bradley seconded the motion, which carried unanimously. IV. ANNOUNCEMENTS & PRESENTATIONS: A. Announcements: 1.

Presentation to Rescue Fund of the Ftre Department by I~urlce Rosenstock of Hunters Run #aurlce Rosenstock, member of the Board and past president of Hunters Run, pre- sented the Fire Department with a check in the amount of $1,500 on behalf of Hunters Run. Hr. Rosenstock explained that Hunters Run established a fund to make contributions to the community.

Ne urged other condo associations and organizations to recognize the various departments in the City. Mr. Rosenstock introduced Mr. Sid Rosen, Co-chair of the Board at Hunters Run, and a member of the Advisory Board on Children and Youth. Chief Jordan thanked the members of Hunters Run for their continued support. also recognized Wackenhut Corporation for having the foresight to train their employees to handle emergency situations. He Jim Ness, Deputy Fire Chief, advised that the Fire Department began a program of getting citizens involved in the "Chain of Survival".

He thanked Mr. Smart for his efforts. Mayor Harmening thanked the residents of Hunters Run for the donation to the Fire Department. C. Comments by CemmtsslonerAgulla Commissioner Aguila thanked everyone for the cards, telephone calls and visits he received during his recent hospital stay. Commissioner Aguila reported that three hours after arriving home from the hospital, he received a phone call advising him that his presence was necessary at the S.C.R.W.T.D. Board meeting in order for the City to have a quorum. The City Commissioners act as the Board of Directors of that Board. This Board meets only four times a year. On this particular occasion, Vice Mayor Matson was ill and Commissioner Katz did not attend. He pointed out that since Commissioner Katz has been on the City Commission, he has missed six of the eight meetings which have been held. Although he may have good reasons for those absences, Commissioner Aguila feels a pattern is forming. Vice Mayor Matson apologized for her absence. She pointed out that over the past two years, had it not been for Mayor Harmening, Commissioner Aguila and herself, there would have been no meetings because three Commissioners are required for a quorum. Mayor Harmening said he is weary of having to apologize for not being able to establish a quorum from Boynton Beach. V. BIDS: None -9- MZNUTE$ - REGULAR CITY COMMISSION MEETING BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA HAY 3, 1994 VI. PUBLIC HEARING: None VII. PUBLIC AUDIENCE: Henrietta Solomon~ 230 NE 26th Avenue, advised that a committee of concerned citizens is being formed to study term limits and to find a change in the term limits.

She requested input from all citizens. Ms. Solomon asked for support from the Commission in publicizing these efforts. Christian Fran¢lose, 115 S, Federal Highway, inquired about the renovations of U.S. #1. Mayor Harmening advised that this Commission is unanimously opposed to the renovations and will be addressing a Resolution on this subject tonight. Maurlce Rosenstock~ ~ V!11a Lane~ thanked City Manager Miller for his help and cooperation with the citizens of Boynton Beach. He congratulated Mr. Miller for his efforts and wished him well in the future. Hike Smollon, Boynton Beach Firefighter, said the Union feels a great loss since Captain Bell decided to take a demotion to Lieutenant. The decision was made as a result of frustration.

DEVELOPMENT PLANS: Project Name: Agent: Location: Description: Boston Chicken TABLED Anna Cottrell 1755 N. Congress Avenue - Catalina Centre MAJOR SITE PLAN NODiFICATION: Request for approval of an amended site plan to convert an existing bank building into a restaurant, including changes to site layout and design. Commissioner Aguila congratulated Ms. Heyden on her appointment as planning Director. Ms. Heyden made the presentation. The modification includes demoliton of the drive-thru lanes and minor site plan changes. The most significant change pro- posed is the building color. In addition, the existing colored canopies in the center are teal. The colors proposed for the canopies at this restaurant are black, white and red. - 10- H~NUTE$ - REGULAR CITY COHHI$$ION HEETING BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA HAY 3, 1994 This request also involves approval to modify the approved shared parking study which applies to the shopping center and its outparcels. In 1988, a site plan was approved for the vacant parcel for a combination health club/office building. That site plan has now expired. It includes ninety-three parking spaces which are not there. When the shared parking study was modified, it included the assumption that the parcel and parking spaces will be developed. The parking study was last revised in 1989. Staff has accepted the fact that the assumption was made and continues to be acceptable based on the fact that: 1. the bank conversion includes no new parking spaces to be added; and 2. since there is a change in use from a bank to a restaurant, no new parking spaces are required. The Planning and Development Board unanimously recommended approval of the request subject to staff comments. There was a great deal of discussion about the building color and the awning as well as the circulation. At that meeting, the architect agreed to reduce the width of the one-way access aisle and provide proper signing. Since the Planning and Development Board meeting, Boston Chicken has reconsidered the awning, and will present their proposed changes. Commissioner Aguila confirmed that the awning colors of the Flagler Federal Bank were different from other awnings in the center. In answer to a question posed by Commissioner Aguila, Ms. Heyden advised that when staff reviews the applica- tions and elevations, it is not their intent to have all of the outparcels match the center. Staff seeks compatibility. Anna Cottrell~ agent for the applicant, said the modifications are very minor. The modifications include the elimination of the drive-thru teller windows, the narrowing of one driveway and the addition of three parking spaces. When Boston Chicken looked at the site, their intent was to demolish the building and construct the standard building. She showed photos of the standard building. It was then decided to use the existing structure, changing the color and adding the awnings. The County's Traffic Performance Standards will not allow the addition of drive-thru lanes because this center accesses Gateway Boulevard which is already overcapacitated. The traffic from the restaurant without the drive-thru is equivalent to the traffic generated by the bank. The Planning and Development Board discussed the color of the building and the awning. They felt their approval, which was consistent with the staff recom- mendation, would direct the applicant to make modifications. Boston Chicken had already made a significant compromise in the corporate architecture by dropping the drive-thru; however, they seriously considered additional modifications so that they can maintain some of their corporate identity and come closer to the existing colors. There is a 200' space separation between this building and any other in the center. The existing building is currently a shade of pink. Boston Chicken has proposed a shade of gray which is harmonious with the existing buildings. The applicant has come up with a much softer shade of gray which should be con- sidered a variation of the existing colors. Ms. Cottrell pointed out that Catalina Centre is not all one color. There are modulations and variations in the shades of biege and pink. This gray color is another variation. She displayed a colored elevation. - 11- ~ HINUTE$ - REGULAR CITY COHHI$SION HEETING BOYNTOH BEACH, FLORIDA HAY 3, 1994 The corporate architecture is important for new companies because it allows for identification by the customer. This site is obscured from the road by vegeta- tion. Signage is limited. The applicant has asked for one directional sign and will be limited to signage on the wall faces of the building. The Planning and Development Board also requested that the applicant review the awning for possible modifications. The standard awning is black, red and white stripes. There is a color banding around the building which matches the red in the awning. In reviewing the possibility of modifications, the manufacturer of the awning proposed that the red color be softened to a shade of rose. It is not possible to modify the black; however, that color is softened with the introduction of the rose color. The color banding around the building will be adjusted to match the rose color in the awning. The applicant has made significant changes which are in keeping with the recom- mendations made by the Planning and Development Board and staff. Ms. Cottrell stated that the awning is Boston Chicken's signature and the modifications to the colors are a significant compromise by them. Commissioner Aguila agreed that the rose color was more preferable than the red band around the building. Ms. Cottrell advised that the applicant is requesting two items with this appro- val. They are: 1. Approval of a modification to the parking allocation; and a waiver of the requirement to provide an exclusive loading zone. They are agreeable to a condition which limits loading activity to those hours prior to the store opening. In response to Mayor Harmening's question about a restaurant in Boca Raton, Mr. Ken Carlson, Architect, advised that that particular restaurant has the cor- porate colors. The canopied entrance has the black, white and scarlet red awning. The building also contains signage with the corporate colors. Commissioner Aguila advised that when he requests outparcels to be harmonious with the main center, he does not feel they must be identical. He does feel they should be compatible and have a sense of place. He is not opposed to the gray color and is pleased it has been lightened. He also supports the rose color on the building and awning. He expressed some concern about the black coloring in the awning. He suggested changing the shade to a gray color. Ms. Cottrell advised that the manufacturer cannot use a charcoal color because it cannot be created on canvas. She felt the black was softened a great deal with the addition of the rose. Commissioner Aguila agreed with her remarks about the softening of the black color and pointed out that there is a great deal of landscaping which obscures this building. He will support this project. Mayor Pro Tem Bradley asked for staff's input with regard to the loading zone. Ms. Heyden advised that loading zones are a Code requirement and, therefore, the applicant should go to the Board of Adjustment for a waiver if they do not want to incorporate a loading zone. Ms. Cottrell stated this Commission has approved loading zone waivers as part of other Development Orders in the past. Checkers - 12- f MZHUTE$ - REGULAR CITY COMMI$$:]'ON MEET]'HG BOYHTON BEACH, FLOR[DA HAY 3, 1994 was afforded such a waiver by the City Commission. Commissioner Aguila would support a waiver. Ms. Cottrell again pointed out that the applicant will accept a condition regarding loading. Norton Commissioner Aguila moved to approve the presentation made this evening on the lighter gray color, the lighter rose on the band, support staff's recommendation on the shared parking and waive the requirement of the loading zone contingent upon loading and unloading happening off hours from the business activity. Commissioner Katz seconded the motion, which carried unanimously. MAYOR HARMENING DECLARED A SHORT RECESS. Mayor Harmening announced that he had received a request to move up Item IX.E. E. Conslder funding request submitted by Project Graduation Committee from Atlantlc Conmunl~ High $chool In response to Commissioner Aguila's question, City Manager Miller stated there is money available for this donation. Motion Commissioner Katz moved to approve. Commissioner Aguila seconded the motion. Vice Mayor Matson expressed her wish that the parents will become more involved in this effort next year and start earlier to raise the necessary funds for this event. She reminded those present that the City Commission just recently donated $2,000 to the Eaglettes. Mayor Harmening also advised that money may not be available next year. Vice Mayor Matson offered to work with the parents to raise funds next year. The motion carried unanimously, B. Excavation &Flll Permit - Residential Lot - Lakeside Harbour Drive, east end - Glen & Paulette Torclvla Vince Finizio, Deputy City Engineer, made the presentation. This parcel of land is vacant and the subsurface soils are comprised of muck which the applicants would like to remove and replace to build a future home. Mr. & Mrs. Torcivia have hired the engineering firm of Post, Buckley, Schuh & Jernigan, Inc. to act as agents. Mrs. Torcivia has fully complied with Code and the Engineering Department recommends approval based upon the City Commissions directive regarding blowing sand. Mrs. Torcivia has posted a $2,500 performance bond, and agreed to seed and mulch the properties within sixty days after completion of the operation. The surety has also been posted to guarantee any repairs to any of the private roadways or infrastructure. As a condition of approval, Mrs. Torcivia should meet with the Police Traffic Safety Unit and the Engineering Department to determine a safe hauling route to and from the lot. They have agreed to clean and sweep the road and maintain the site with screening and fencing to eliminate the possibility of children entering the construction site. - 13- ~ NZNUTE$ - REGULAR CITY COHHI,~$ION HEETING BOYNTOH BEACH, FLORIDA I~Y 3, 1994 Mayor Harmening questioned whether or not the property is titled jointly since only Mrs. Torcivia signed the letter. He felt this is a small defect. Mr. Finizio was not aware how the property is titled. #orlon Commissioner Aguila moved approval of staff's recommendation. Vice Mayor Matson seconded the motion, which carried unanimously. C. Revlew of plans of the East Ocean Avenue (500 Block) beautlflcatlonl l~rov~nent project City Manager Miller advised that when the street markings were done by the contractor, the City began receiving calls regarding where the landscape bulbs and changes in the streetscape would be taking place. Concerns were expressed by the business operators in the area. Ann Ford has met with them to receive their input. A meeting was held in the City Manager's Office with the contrac- tor to explain the concerns. At this time, a decision is needed on whether or not to go forth with the original plan or modify it to decrease some of the amenities or eliminate them entirely. Commissioner Aguila expressed concern over the fact that this job is not pro- ceeding as planned. He has serious problems with the fact that some of the issues raised are in violation of our regulations. Commissioner Aguila feels very strongly about the landscaping improvements, but agrees that they might protrude too much. He prepared an overlay of the existing plans. He mimicked the south landscape island and made it so that they are similar on both sides of the intersection with 28' between them. That will provide ample access. He also recommends eliminating the angled back-up parking and creating parallel parking on both sides of the street. In looking at the middle islands which created a center block connection, he reduced the one on the north side to 30'. He proposed no changes on U.S. 1. This wilt reduce the number of pavers and landscaping and delete two lights. Commissioner Aguila also proposes relocation of the trash cans, and benches. Instead of two bike racks, there will be one eleven (11) bike rack. Commissioner Aguila feels this plan can be done and will satisfy the merchants. No parking spaces will be lost. This is his recommendation as opposed to elimi- nating the entire mid-block crossover. Commissioner Katz stated that after reviewing the plans which were presented by Ann Ford, he was prepared to go along with only two changes which included the reduction of the center island to allow for 24', and the reduction to allow for proper alignment of the street. Commissioner Katz feels the City paid money to have these plans prepared and he does not want to see them become part of the City's "plans museum". This project was to begin on April 1st. "We've sent men to the moon; people have held free elections in South Africa, and the City of Boynton Beach can't seem to get a block in downtown done." He feels it is time to move forward on this project. Commissioner Aguila agreed with Commissioner Katz' remarks. Vice Mayor Matson stated she has a problem with the contractor. She recalled asking him months ago if he was ready to move forward with this project and his - 14 - N~NUTE$ - REGULAR CITY COMMISSION NEETING BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA NAY 3, 1994 response was "absolutely". Vice Mayor Matson knows he has done nothing about his permits and has submitted many changes before he has even begun. She will not deal with this contractor's change orders at every Commission meeting. She wants the contractor to understand her feelings. Mayor Harmening does not like this contractor's method of doing business. Commissioner Aguila said he is not happy with the fact that this project has not moved forward. He feels the City has lost its credibility. Mayor Pro Tem Bradley agrees that this project must move forward. He is con- cerned about safety issues related to the crosswalk and about traffic flow off U. S. #1 in terms of stacking. The City Attorney advised that there is no problem with engineering standards. Ann Ford, Downtown District Coordinators is frustrated by the delay of this pro- ject. The contractor did not apply for permits until a week after his meeting with the City on April 7th. She feels the delay might have turned out for the best because the street markings have caused many concerns. The street width became an important factor with regard to elderly citizens negotiating the street. The additional landscape bulbs add more negotiation when they are parking. The small bulbs will create a serious problem for the merchants because there is only one block of parking for those merchants. Ms. Ford believes this plan would work well on another street, but not on this street. She does not believe a pedestrian walkway in the middle of the block is a smart move on this street for safety reasons. Commissioner Aguila pointed out that people currently cross at all points on this street. Creation of a safe pedestrian walkway will encourage the people to cross in one location rather than at other locations on the street. He agrees that the original plan was too large. He feels the crosswalk will work well here. With regard to traffic stacking on Federal Highway, Commissioner Katz stated he has never seen that situation; however, if the marina project goes forward, within one year we will have two parking garages. After so many hours of meetings on this project, Commissioner Katz feels we should move forward with this project with the two corrections noted by Commissioner Aguila. Ms. Ford feels the reduced bulb suggested by Commissioner Aguila at 4th and Ocean is an excellent entry point. The amenities are excellent features. However, the City can save approximately half the cost by eliminating bulb outs which will create a future parking problem. She does not feel this is an appropriate location for a crosswalk. She further pointed out that it is against DOT regulations to incorporate middle-of-the-block crossings. Mayor Harmening pointed out that the opposite side of U.S. #1 is a State road. They would never permit this plan with a mid-block crosswalk. Commissioner Aguila said Delray Beach was allowed to do this because they took over the road. James Pitts, owner of Nfs, Hllda'$ Antlque$~ said everyone is disgusted about the delays, but fee~ this is the time to make the corrections which will eliminate hazards in the future. He reviewed a rough draft of Commissioner Aguila's revisions and felt the reduction of the landscape bulbs was great. However, the center landscape bulbs should be eliminated to create more open space. He also is concerned with the flow of water. - 15 - ' H]:NUTE$ - REGULAR CITY COHHZ$SION HEETING BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA HAY 3, 1994 Commissioner Aguila does not believe a drainage problem would be created and advised that additional drains are being installed. Mr. Pitts feels the elimination of the center aisle would be best. He feels this is the time to make the project safe and economical. Mr. Pitts said there are citizens who are concerned about the project. They appreciate the recent planting of the Palms and know the City is working to get this project going. Due to the burial of her husband, Janet Hall was unable to attend this meeting, but asked Ms. Ford to express her wish to have all landscape bulbs removed with the exception of the one at the end of 4th and Ocean. Bob Knlckerbocker~ Early Attlc, said the business operators asked for the post- ponement during the season and hoped that these problems could have been worked out during that time. He feels it is a shame that Ms. Ford and the merchants had to figure out the errors in the project. Prior to this meeting, concerns were expressed to City Manager Miller. When the pavement was marked, the merchants realized there was a problem. He feels Ms. Ford's proposal is a workable proposal. Mr. Knickerbocker suggested holding a meeting with the merchants, property owners and the Engineering Department to work this out. He does not feel time is an element. Commissioner Aguila explained that the contract has been awarded and there may be stipulations regarding how long the City can hold him up. Questions were then raised regarding whether or not the City wants to hold the contractor to the contract. Commissioner Aguila said the contractor is already committed on certain expenses and the City will have to absorb them. Ms. Ford advised that by cutting back the bulb outs, the need for drainage is eliminated and the cost of the bulb outs is reduced; therefore, the cost of the entire project is reduced. In response to Mayor Pro Tem Bradley's question, City Manager Miller advised that it would probably cost the City between $5,000 and $10,000 to stop the project. Mayor Pro Tem Bradley felt that the City might be able to offset those costs by the newly-rendered plans. Mayor Harmening suggested that the City build the bulb out at 4th Street as a redesign and then do fill-in work on the balance of the sidewalks. In response to a question from Mayor Pro Tem Bradley regarding whether or not the City would be out any money with the contractor, Mayor Harmening said, normally a contract can only be increased or decreased about 25% unless both parties are willing. Attorney Cherof said he does not believe there is a fixed formula. Commissioner Aguila is of the opinion that the contractor underbid the contract. By changing the scope of the contract, he will have to change the numbers down- ward, but the downward slide won't really be what it reflects because he will try to pick up some of the figures. A detailed unit price deduct change order will be needed. Commissioner Aguila is not opposed to the elimination of some of these items. In the end, two parking spaces will be gained. The reduction of the bulb out on 4th Street provides a better site distance and better access to the road. The elimination of the crosswalk will require change to the design documents. - 16 - r M~NUTE$ - REGULAR CZTY COHMI$$ION MEETING BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA MAY 3, 1994 City Manager Miller advised that he received information late today from Lawson and Noble that the revisions to the Streetscape.plans would not exceed $1,200. Commissioner Aguila recommended eliminating the crossovers, adding two addition- al parking spaces, have Hank Skokowski do the redesign and have the contractor begin working on his deduct change order. City Manager Miller advised that Mr. Skokowski can have his work done within a week. Ms. Ford advised that Larry Parr will be doing the inspections. City Manager Miller confirmed that there is no additional charge for the inspections. Engineering will be able to handle the inspections once the plans are drawn. However, a certain number of reviews are covered in the contract and must be abided by. It is important to get unit prices so that his numbers can be verified. Ms. Ford asked for clarification on what the Commission was proposing. Commis- sioner Aguila said there will be bulb outs on all four corners of the block. The landscaping on U.S. #1 and Ocean is a must and is not a problem. He will agree to eliminating the landscape bulbs on the west of the two drives, north and south. He is also agreeable to eliminating the center block crossovers. Motion Commissioner Katz moved to do the four corners. Leave the bulb outs at Ocean and Federal Highway, reduce the ones at 4th and ~Ocean, but leave the landscaping there and let's move this forward. Commissioner Aguila seconded the motion. Mr. Finizio stated that the Engineering Department agrees with Commissioner Aguila that there should be a mid-block crossing. Florida has a pedestrian yield law. There are many areas in Florida with mid-block crossings which give jaywalkers a place to cross. The Engineering Department agrees with the 28' width because this is a collector road. The two 14' lanes and a crosswalk with the appropriate signage would not have a detrimental effect on the City or its citizens. The Engineering Department agrees that the bulb outs on 4th should be reduced in size, but has no problem with the bulb outs on Federal Highway. Attorney Cherof advised Mr. Finizio that the City needs to have a memorandum stating the Engineering Department's comments. Ms. Francios questioned the size of the bulb outs on U.S. #1. She was advised that they are approximately eight feet in width. There will be no visibility problem. The motion carried 4-1. (Vice Mayor Matson cast the dissenting vote.) D. Planning report on outparcel$ on commercial tracts Tambri Heyden, Planning and Zoning Director, made the presentation. She advised that at the February 15th City Commission meeting, staff was directed to prepare a study regarding whether or not outparcels should be permitted. Staff has been confronted with four types of lease and purchase arrangements. They are: leased outparcels where an outbuilding and sometimes land with boundary lines set forth in a lease agreement, are leased to a business, but ownership is retained by the owner of the shopping center; - 17 - ' HINUTES - REGULAR CITY COHHISSIOH HEETING BOYNTOH BEACH, FLORIDA HAY 3, 1994 subdivided outparcels where an outbuilding and land are subdivided, creating a separate lot of record, and is under different ownership in the shopping center; 3. outbuildings, without land, are sold to a business by the owner of the shopping center; and 4. floor space within the main commercial building is sold to a business by the owner of the shopping center, with or without land. It is staff's recommendation that outparcels not be prohibited based on discussions with professionals in the land development industry. There is no preferred way of developing shopping centers because it is important for the developer to be flexible. While young businesses prefer to lease rather than tie up capital in real estate, it is more attractive to more established busi- nesses to have land as part of their assets. If the City prohibits leased or subdivided outparcels, it limits the developer's potential market and limits businesses which might locate in the City. Ms. Heyden advised that staff has realized that the success of some businesses depends on capture or spinoff from other businesses which puts anchors in out- buildings in a secure position. Since outparcels appear to be a way of life and are here to stay, the next consideration would be control of those outparcels and the problems associated with them. Staff has identified some of the problems as being access, parking, drainage, utilities, architectural design, signage, visibility, setbacks, mini- mum lot size and street frontage. Staff surveyed a number of cities within Palm Beach County and found that the cities require their outparcets to stand alone. In two instances, it was discovered that parking was provided in the main shopping center through cross-parking agreements. All cities permit shopping centers as part of a planned zoning district. Boynton Beach has a planned com- mercial development district {PCD). Staff recommends that outparcels and outbuildings continue to be allowed. Staff also believes that the City's current regulations, Community Design Plan and Site Plan Review Ordinance dictate architectural design. Access, drainage and utilities should be allowed to be integrated through a unified design. Staff recommends changing the Sign Code because subdivided outparcels are allowed their own freestanding signs. Staff recommends that they have a sign, but it should be a lower sign, possibly a monument sign. Staff also recommends a change of the subdivision Ordinance to reduce the number of exceptions to platting and set forth criteria governing who must go through platting. Mayor Harmening complimented Ms. Heyden on the thoroughness of her report. Vice Mayor Matson felt the elimination of outparcels might create a situation where a developer will accuse the City of not allowing him to develop his land. Attorney Cherof agreed. Commissioner Aguila stated that Ms. Heyden's staff report was indicative of why he felt she was the right person for the position of Planning and Zoning Director. He stated that he originally wanted to eliminate outparcels, but his way of thinking has changed. Commissioner Aguila agreed with Ms. Heyden's recommendation to allow outparcels. He also agrees with her recommendation to - 18- HINUTES - REGULAR CITY COI4HISSION HEETING BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA HAY 3, 1994 revise the Sign Code, but would also like to limit the percentage of coverage that an outparcel can have on the center it is associated with. He asked her to provide some recommendations for leased and subdivided outparcels. IX. NEW BUSINESS: A. Items for discussion requested by Mayor Edward Harmenln9 1. Parkln9 requtrenmnts for autobody shops tn #-1 zones Mayor Harmening advised that an auto body shop has been trying to locate in this City for at least three months, but because of parking requirements, a problem has been experienced. This type of business does not need the amount of parking required. There was an attempt to use the inside for parking, but Chapters 6 and 7 state that a parking garage needs fire protection separation. However, this is not a parking garage. Mayor Harmening suggested making the necessary Ordinance change so that auto body shops in the M-1 Zoning District must have one parking space per employee and one space per bay. This will provide an abundance of parking. Commissioner Aguila pointed out the importance of not making zoning changes on a specific issue. He did, however, further point out that the issue brought this situation to the attention of the Commission. Mayor Harmening said this is not site specific because there are other auto body shops in the M-1 District. Consensus There was a consensus of the Commission to send this to the Planning and Development Board for review. Attorney Cherof will prepare an Ordinance to cover the recommended changes. AA. Items for discussion requested by Vtce N~or ~nne Natson 1. Outparcel at Boynton Lakes Plaza Vice Mayor Matson questioned whether or not the City Commission approved the color of Cuco's Restaurant. The entire shopping plaza is beige and teal with red signage. Cuco's building is an orange color. Ms. Heyden advised that they went through a Community Design Plan appeal which included roof, elements and colors. They originally proposed shades of mint green and Easter pink. The decision was left to the Planning Director to deter- mine the predominant color and that turned out to be the orange/pink instead of the brown which is on the columns. Haurlce Rosenstock said he remembered a City Ordinance which established a series of colors acceptable for certain areas. Commissioner Aguila advised that is the Community Design Plan which the applicant appealed. Mr. Rosenstock feels if a rule is established, the Commission should not be so liberal in allowing exceptions. Mayor Harmening agreed. Commissioner Aguila advised that he philosophically agreed with Mr. Rosenstock, and is opposed to the Community Design Plan. *should read, "Chapters 6 and 7 of the Standard Building Code". - t9 - M~NUTE$ - REGULAR CZTY CONMZ$SION MEETING BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA HAY 3, 1994 Vice Mayor Matson suggested researching the minutes to see what happened with this restaurant. Bo Items for discussion requested by Mayor Pro Tem I~tt Bradley 1. Me~Jn9 of Children & Youth Advisory Board and Education Advisory Board This item was discussed earlier in the meeting. C® Revlew of the proposed Occupational Llcense Report as prepared by the Occupational License Equity Study Cmlsslon and authorization to proceed with adoption of the rate structure City Manager Miller advised that Mr. Jaeger's memorandum provides the details of the Equity Study Commission process used to get to the goal of a 10% increase of the established base rate. He further advised that Palm Beach County is going forward with a similar exercise. At the conclusion of their study, it is their intention not to contribute the revenues generated to the cities any longer. The City will lose between $120,000 and $150,000. Don Jaeger, Building Official, advised that the County is now proceeding with their tax equity study commission. The effects of the contractors' licenses has been felt by the cities this year. We will probably end this year with $77,000 less revenue than we received last year. The $100,000 we are anticipating this year will probably be cut to $50,000 next year. One of the clauses of the legislation allows the Counties to retain a signifi- cant portion of what they collect in the unincorporated areas. At the present time, they distribute monies from both the incorporated and unincorporated areas based on a percentage of population. When the bylaws of the Equity Study Commission were brought forward to the City Commission, a decision was made to put in the maximum dollar value which could be collected under State law, which was $841,665. The Equity Study Commission achieved a figure of $841,200. The Equity Study Commission spent a great deal of time discussing what would be equitable. After two meetings, the members realized that the restrictions placed on the City through the State legislation would severely limit what equity was. There were formulas in State law which restricted the amount which any license could be raised. At that point, the Study Commission tried to establish equity through different professions and occupations in the City. There were certain considerations such as all professionals paying the same, all retail would pay based on inventory, all warehouses would pay based on square footage, and all manufacturing would pay based on number of employees. When the overall equity issues were determined, they reviewed each license to see which ones violated the provisions of the State Statutes. At that point, the computer printouts were prepared. In the proposed Resolution which will set the rate structures, there will be a lot of exceptions to the broad categories. The Study Commission basically stayed within the overall cap which was dictated to them by the bylaws, and attempted to achieve equity wherever possible. Every two years the City is allowed to raise license fees by 5%. It is hoped that everyone will eventually be equalized. - 20 - ' HINUTE$ - REGULAR CITY COI~II$$ION NEETING BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA NAY 3, 1994 As part of this process, the Occupational License Division brought every license into the Standard Industrial Classifications (SIC), This will permit nationwide across-the-board comparisons. With regard to the Proposed License Tax Rates, Vice Mayor Matson questioned whether units and rooms are considered the same thing. Mr. Jaeger explained that for computer purposes, unit was used for employees, seats and rooms. Vice Mayor Matson also noted that Coin Operated Laundries had a base rate plus a fee for each machine. She questioned whether or not the base amount was elimi- nated with the $3.75 per unit making up for that elimination. Mr. Jaeger responded negatively, and explained that the summary was prepared a while ago. All of this was handled in the Proposed Occupational License Rate Structure which is being recommended for approval by resolution. Vice Mayor Matson compared the current Chapter 13 to the new Chapter 13. She inquired whether or not transfers and penalties have always been included in the base fee. She does not feel penalties are taxes, and by adding penalties and transfers and the money from Palm Beach County, the revenue base is being inflated. Mr. Jaeger advised that including those items into the base rate was the recommendation from the City of Orlando who, with the League of Cities, went throughout the State providing seminars on this. Jim Parker served on the Statewide Tax Equity Study Commission and published a "how to" booklet. He based his decisions on what he learned in his dealings with that Commission. Normally, when reported, those figures are broken down. The $24,000 for Florida Alcohol and mobile homes is not included and we anticipate receiving those revenues in the future. Vice Mayor Matson stated that she agrees with this in theory, but she wonders what the reaction will be when people receive a 200% increase. Mr. Jaeger advised that the Commission understood there would be substantial increases and all of these recommendations were supported by the Chamber of Commerce. Vice Mayor Matson feels she was remiss in not putting someone on the Study Commission who could represent the "little guy". Mayor Pro Tem Bradley attended one of the meetings of the Study Commission and realized they had a very difficult job. Although some of the increases are marginal, there are some which are more than marginal. Mr. Jaeger explained that they are marginal above the cap. There are nineteen (19) which do not comply with the strict standards. Mayor Pro Tem Bradley noted that his license will triple in cost. There are people who will have a problem with such an increase and he feels business people will have to be oriented to the fact that these increases will be taking place. Commissioner Katz felt the Chamber of Commerce endorsed this proposal since there is a recommendation included for a $25,000 to the Chamber of Commerce. Mr. Jaeger said the Study Commission added that donation at the last meeting so that some of the money collected from the business people is used to stimulate economic development. Commissioner Katz would like the fees lowered by $25,000 and not give the Chamber of Commerce any money. Vice Mayor Matson stated she would have a very hard time justifying a 200% increase and then giving the Chamber $25,000. Mayor Harmening stated he was never elected to give the Chamber of Commerce any money. Commissioner Aguila also stated that he will not support that recommendation. - 21 - MINUTES - REGULAR CITY COMMISSION MEETING BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA MAY 3, 1994 Mayor Harmening explained that there is a problem in that we will not be getting as much money from the County as in the past. Mayor Harmening also advised that a decision will be needed soon since a time frame is involved. He said this is a staff recommendation, but the City Commission does not have to accept staff's recommendation. Attorney Cherof said this is not a staff recommendation. It is the recommendation of a Commission which was formed under authority of the Statute. The Commission may have been guided by staff, but it is still a com- mittee report. In response to Commissioner Katz' question, Mr. Jaeger stated that if this recommendation is accepted, the City will be going above and beyond the expected loss. We would realize a net increase of approximately $120,000. Discussion ensued regarding increasing these fees 5% above the base rate rather than 10% above the base. Ms. Parker stated staff could calculate the percentage and apply it to each category so that each would be decreased proportionately. This can be brought back at the next meeting. Consensus There was a consensus of the Commission for staff to run a few scenarios at 2.5%, 5%, and 7.5%, and bring them back at the next meeting. Staff will summarize by categories. NOtion D. Consider request from Advlsory Board on the Elderly to change their name to Senior Advisory Board Vice Mayor Matson moved to approve. Commissioner Aguila seconded the motion, which carried unanimously. E. Consider funding request submitted by Project Graduation Committee from Atlantic Con~unlty High School This item was discussed earlier in the meeting. F. Narketlng Approaches Commissioner Aguila feels the City of Boynton Beach is allowing the media to do its marketing. In the time he has been on the City Commission, many good things have happened and he does not feel the City has made an effort to promote those things. He requested approval from the City Commission to meet with the City Manager and the Public Information Officer to discuss marketing strategies to polish the City's image. Commissioner Aguila is not seeking participation from the media. He feels it is important to share with the community the things to be proud of in this City. Mayor Harmening feels this suggestion is good, but also feels most of the people who live here are happy. Commissioner Aguila thinks many of them are misguided because they do not know what is being done. Mayor Pro Tem Bradley agreed with Commissioner Aguila's suggestion. He feels pride is generated from many areas. He suggested having quarterly meetings with the editorial staff of the newspapers. - 22 - ' M/NUTE$ - REGULAR CITY COMMISSION MEETING BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA HAY 3, 1994 Consensus There was a consensus of the Commission for Commissioner Aguila to meet with the Public Information Officer and bring back some suggestions or move forward if there is no financial impact.

Charter Amendment/Civil Service ..................... TABLED Commissioner Aguila moved to remove this from the table. Vice Mayor Matson seconded the motion, which carried unanimously, Attorney Cherof reminded the Commission that they began the process of putting the potential referendum question to the voters. Memorandum No. 94-38 sets forth the requirements for proceeding which requires the adoption of an Ordinance in accordance with Florida Statute 166.031. That memorandum included the submission deadlines for the upcoming elections. Attorney Cherof requested direction with regard to the election date for the referendum, and what posi- tions will be eliminated from classified service. Commissioner Aguila feels this referendum should be submitted for the November 8 General Election and the positions involved would be those of Grade 37 and above. Those positions include City Clerk, Finance Director, Deputy Finance Director, Director of Data Processing, Personnel Director, Planning & Zoning Director, Police Chief, the two Police Captains that alternate as Chief, Fire - 24 - ~INUTE$ - REGULAR CITY COMMISSION MEETING BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA MAY 3, 1994 Chief, Deputy Fire Chief, Building Official, Utility Director, Utility Engineer, the two Deputy Utility Directors, City Engineer, Deputy Engineer, Public Works Director, Deputy Director of Public Works, Library Director, Recreation & Parks Director and the Golf Director. This is a total of twenty-three (23) positions. Vice Mayor Matson pointed out that we have a Deputy Building Official and a Deputy City Clerk. She questioned why some Deputies will remain in classified service while others are eliminated from that service. Commissioner Aguila considered those positions where there is a direct relationship with the City Manager's Office. In response to Vice Mayor Matson's question regarding whether or not there will be a problem excluding some Deputies and not others, Attorney Cherof stated that he is not sure whether the intent is to make it reference by Grade or by title. Commissioner Aguila stated that he specifically listed the titles and everyone mentioned is Grade 37 or above. He feels his list encompasses the individuals having direct accountability to the City Manager. Commissioner Aguila said he is aware of the fact that many of these people fear for their jobs, but in his opinion, if the person is doing his/her job, there should be no worry about the discipline policy in the A.P.M. He does not feel this will turn into a mass exodus of employees by bad Commissioners and bad Managers. The discipline policy may need to be reviewed so that it is specific to the titles involved so that they understand the protection they will possess. Commissioner Aguila has a problem with personnel at this level having civil service protection. He further advised that anyone who is fired unjustly has an option of suing the City. Commissioner Katz reiterated his position that he is completely opposed to this recommendation. He feels these positions will be politicized. There is a mone- tary value in removing an employee from civil service. Without civil service protection, an employee could be fired on a whim. He considers taking the people who are currently on civil service off similar to the impairment of the obligation of a contract and feels the City will be in a deep hole. Other mu- nicipalities who have taken their department heads off civil service have at least grandfathered in those who had that protection. To arbitrarily remove these people from civil service is a crime. Commissioner Katz spoke highly of Sue Kruse, Charlie Frederick, Don Jaeger, Tambri Heyden and the Police Chief. These are people who have done an excellent job. It is possible that these people may become accountable to three people who wish to get rid of them because they dislike them. Harry Marcus said he was mentioned by name in a lawsuit because his Constitutional rights were being abridged. He stated that he did not feel that way and has nothing to do with the lawsuit. Mr. Marcus said he is completely, morally and if possible, physically opposed to this suggestion to emasculate the civil service system. In 1959, the Commissioners fired everybody and hired those they wished to retain. That was the most politicized situation in the history of employee/government relations. Mr. Marcus feels Commissioner Aguila's experience in the management of people is nil. Experience with respect to employees is very important. This system has been in existence for thirty-five years. The twenty-three people involved will result in twenty-three lawsuits against the City which it will not win. He feels the City will never recover from this. - 25 - ~INUTES - REGULAR CITY COI~ISSION MEETING BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA MAY 3, 1994 Mayor Harmening pointed out that it is a long time before this item will be formally placed on the ballot. Mr. Marcus said there will be tremendous opposition to this recommendation and he feels it is unnecessary. Commissioner Aguila said he did not make this recommendation to get rid of employees. He feels that at that level of management, there must be accounta- bility without interference from a cumbersome manual. He also feels there should be a protection for the employees so that they feel comfortable with their jobs. Commissioner Katz added accolades for Personnel Director Bill Sullivan, Recreation & Parks Director Charlie Frederick, Director of Data Processing Mike Munro, and Chief Jordan of the Fire Department. He feels all of the department heads do a great job and there is no reason to remove them from Civil Service. Vice Mayor Matson said this is not a personality contest. People are politi- cizing something that should not be politicized. In looking at the union structure of the country, labor and management are not together in the system. Attorney Cherof will draft an Ordinance for first reading. 2. Settlement agreement for Tracey Howard Claim As outlined in Risk Management Memo #94-027, this involves a settlement in the amount of $9,250 for a bodily injury claim which resulted from an incident at a City park where a tabletop fell on Ms. Howard's foot. Motion Vice Mayor Matson moved to approve. Commissioner Aguila seconded the motion, which carried unanimously. 3. Chapter 13 Amendments Commissioner Aguila would like some back-up information to help him understand the rationale behind what was done, and why it was done. He also wants to know why these amendments are better or worse. Ms. Parker advised that the Building Department has been asked to provide that information. She recommended tabling this item at this time. Motion Commissioner Aguila moved to table this item. Vice Mayor Matson seconded the motion, which carried unanimously. XI. OLD BUSINESS; A.

Commissioner Aguila suggested the City Manager and City Attorney bring back a specific proposed schedule to show the task to be accomplished. Mayor Harmening feels this is not necessary. If something needs to be changed, it should be brought forward. Commissioner Aguila disagreed and felt there have been many things brought up by the City Attorney, City Manager and department heads that require change. The meetings have been scheduled for the first Monday of each month, from 6:00 p.m. until 8:00 p.m. Mayor Harmening stated he would not attend. Request authorization to proceed with actuarial study for early retirement Incentive per proposal dated September 2, 1993 from Gabriel, Roeder, ~mlth & Company City Manager Miller said this was referred back to staff for additional informa- tion. That information was gathered from cities which have implemented an early retirement program. The cities do anticipate savings over the short term, but the long term savings are questionable. The actuary indicated that he can determine the feasibility of an early retirement incentive program for the City at a cost of $5,000. Mayor Harmening said he is not interested in spending $5,000 to help some employees leave the City a little earlier with more money in their pockets. Vice Mayor Matson questioned how this study would be paid for. Mr. Frederick said discussions took place at the Pension Board meeting on this subject, and based on the Commission's decision, they would consider splitting the cost with the City. Bill Sullivan advised that he received a package from Ms. Standifer which con- tained information from Coral Springs with a projected ten-year savings. He stated that if the actuaries are given parameters, they can determine whether or not the parameters are realistic. Those parameters are based on age, population being considered, the fund balance, etc. Lake Worth did not anticipate or plan on any savings; however, the City of Hollywood has attempted to realize a savings. With regard to the City of Coral Springs, the first year cumulative savings is $252,000. Over ten years, it increases to $7 million. Mr. Sullivan advised that he is unaware of how that has been calculated. Mayor Harmening feels these numbers are the result of complete reorganization. Notion Commissioner Aguila moved to deny. Mayor Pro Tem Bradley seconded the motion, which carried 5-0. D. Update on Goal Settlng Workshop Mayor Pro Tem Bradley advised that the gentleman mentioned will interview each of the Commissioners for approximately one hour to learn about individual - 27 - MINUTES - REGULAR CITY COMHI$$IOH HEETING BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA MAY 3, 1994 visions and ideas for the City. He will then advise about what he can do with regard to a workshop. Vice Mayor Matson remembered agreeing to this type of workshop if there were no fees involved. Commissioner Katz agreed that the Commission did not want to pay for it. Ms. Parker advised that when this suggestion was made, she and City Manager Miller met with Motorola, who agreed to open up their training sessions; however, this type of workshop is not what they had in mind. With this gentle- man, it would specifically be a goal setting workshop. Commissioner Aguila said he is willing to meet with anyone who can help the Commission develop a unified direction, but if there is no unity in the Commission, it is a waste of time. Since he does not believe there is unity in the Commission, he does not feel the project should move forward. Mayor Harmening agreed that this should not move forward. Mayor Pro Tem Bradley said the purpose of the workshop was to determine what the Commissioners would like to see Boynton Beach be like a year from now. He is aware of the fact that there will be differences of opinion. Mayor Pro Tem Bradley feels this may not be the time to do this, but felt responsible to the citizens of the City to bring this forward. He feels it is important to con- tinue to create a vision. Motion Mayor Pro Tem Bradley moved to accept this facilitator coming to town for half a day to interview each of us and he will give a recommendation as to where we should go from there. Commissioner Aguila and Mayor Harmening feel this is a waste of money. As an alternative, Ms. Parker said she would like to meet with the department heads and put forth a list of issues that she sees facing the City in the next twelve months. When that list is ready, the Commission can go through a priority setting on those issues. Commissioner Katz realized that once the list is compiled, the Commission may find that they are in agreement on many issues. XII. CITY MANAGER'S REPORT: A. Update on City Commission #eetln9 Tracking Form There were no questions on this item. B. Delegation of Permitting Authority to Palm Beach County for Regulation of Seagrape Trimming and Landscaping Activities City Manager Miller advised that Mr. Frederick needs direction on this item prior to attending the meeting to be held next week. The County is looking at taking over delegation of permitting authority for seagrape trimming and landscaping activities. It is staff's feeling that DERM should not get more deeply involved than they are already. It is also staff's recommendation to leave the process as it is at the present time. - 28 - ' I~INUTE$ - REGULAR CITY COMMISSIOH MEETING J' BOYNTON BF.~CH, FLORIDA HAY 3, 1994 There was a consensus of the Commission that staff should attend the meeting and let them know we would like things left as is.
