BIDS One (1) new curbside recycling materials collection vehicle City Manager Miller reported that eight bids were received for this item. Southland Equipment Company is being recommended as the best and responsible bidder which meets the City's needs for recycling. Carel Fisher, Assistant Director of Public Works, explained that no bidder met the specifications which were sent out. However, Southland Equipment Company enhanced and exceeded the specifica- tions. They have offered a vehicle which will better serve our - 2 - MINU?ES - RE Um CI?Y COMMISSI MEETiN BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA MARCH 17, 1992 recycling needs. The vehicle they offered was not originally specified because it was believed that this piece of equipment was beyond the budget guidelines. Public Works currently has a piece of equipment in the fleet with this same body. It has been in operation for two years and has provided excellent service. Mr. Fisher explained some of the problems encountered with the bids and the fact that some of the bidders provided a projected delivery date of six months. Because of these problems, Public Works is already two and one-half months late in having the equipment on line. Mr. Fisher stated that staff recommends the acceptance of the Southland Equipment Company bid in the amount of $77,300 with a projected delivery date of twenty (20) days. Motion Commissioner Aguila moved to award the bid to Southland Equip- ment Company of Bartow, Florida in the amount of $77,300 for a 1992 Mack, Midliner, Model MS-250P equipped with a Rogers Recycling Body per Memorandum #92-029 from Carel Fisher to City Manager J. Scott Miller. Commissioner Artis seconded the motion. Commissioner Matson expressed her uneasiness in awarding this bid to a contractor who does not meet the specifications. She also pointed out the price. Mr. Fisher explained that there are currently two trucks in service. One is similar to the recom- mended vehicle. The other truck has had service problems. Design modifications have been made which are still not accep- table. This truck was purchased on low bid. Bob Eichorst, Director of Public Works, explained his disappoint- ment with the last low bid vehicle. He receives many promises from the contractor which they do not live up to. After deli- very, it was discovered that the vehicle is too long to make the turns in Boynton Lakes, Leisureville and Cedar Wood Villas. The motion carried 4-0. PUBLIC HEARING None PUBLIC AUDIENCE: Eddie Mitchell of 329 NE 12th Avenue, congratulated Charles Frederick and his staff for the work they are doing in trying to find the best-qualified personnel for the new community center at Ezell Hester Park. He pointed out that Mr. Hester would be very proud of what is happening at that park. Mr. Mitchell also congratulated the Police Department for their work in decreasing the crime rate in Boynton Beach. This will encourage people to want to live here. - 3 - MINUTES - REGULAR CITY COMMISSION ~ETING BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA MARCH 17, 1992 Mr. Mitchell stated there are 119 sworn Police Officers in Boynton Beach. Of those 119, there are three (3)African Americans. This is a ridiculous situation. He further stated that Commissioner Artis is dissatisfied with these numbers. There are African American citizens of Boynton Beach in other Police Departments in neighboring communities. Delray Beach has approximately the same number of sworn Officers on the force, but they have eighteen (18) African American Officers. The City of Boynton Beach should discuss this situation with other cities in an attempt to learn how they are able to recruit African Americans. .Boynton Beach's Police Department is most likely the second highest paid Police Department of the thirty-seven (37) municipalities and we are still unable to recruit African American Police Officers. Commissioner Matson reported that she has contacted Verna Cook in Delray who will be providing information on recruitment of black Officers. However, City Manager Miller confirmed that no funds are available for recruitment. Mr. Mitchell stated he will be ~ooking forward to receiving whatever information can be obtained %o help in this situation. Shirley Stevens of 28~2 SE 5th Circle, Apt. 4B, spoke as Chair of the Boynton Beach Citizens Coalition. She complimented the Police Department on the decrease of the crime rate in Boynton Beach. The Coalition will be sending the Department a letter of praise. Wllda Searc¥ of 402 NE lSth Avenue, stated there are problems with the County and the School Board. A meeting was held at City Hall today but there was confusion and some people were told the meeting was to be at Poinciana School. She waited at Poinciana School until 11:00 a.m. and then left. At home, she viewed a news report regarding this meeting. Everyone is upset over the closing of Poinciana School and stated the people will not allow it. Ms. Searcy stated Ken Montgomery will get monies into Boynton Beach to provide jobs for children from ages 14 through 21. Maurice Rosenstock of 1 Villa Lane stated that all of the citi- zens of Boynton Beach give a deposit for the use of water. The total amount of money being held on behalf of the citizens amounts to $1,425,457. This money is held by the City and bears no interest to the taxpayers. FPL requires a deposit, but that deposit bears interest. He further pointed out that the total amount of uncollectibles in the Water Department for 1990 was $65,861. In 1991, that figure was $93,124. He suggested the City Commission revisit the amount of money being held by the City. The citizens will never have this money returned unless they sell their homes or die. He suggested some of these funds be returned to the citizens. - 4 - MINUTES - REGULAR CITY COMMISSION MEETING BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA MARCH 17, 1992 DEVELOPMENT PLANS: A. Atrium Place Parkinq Lot Variance ADDeal Chris Cutro, Planning Director, explained this request is an appeal of a determination made by the Planning and Zoning Board regarding a driveway entrance to Atrium Place. The driveway distance requested is less than the required 180'. Mr. Desiderio, the owner, asked for a full driveway. When the TRC and Planning and Zoning Board reviewed the request, it was deter- mined that the driveway be one-way in only. For purposes of ana- lysis, more information would be required. Because of the lack of additional information, the original recommendation is not being changed. vice Mayor Harmening suggested a full-scale traffic study be done before the Commission considers Mr. Desiderio's request. Commissioner Matson questioned whether or not DOT was contacted. Mr. Desiderio stated he contacted DOT; however, Vice Mayor Harmening said they were contacted only with regard to the U- turn. According to Mr. Cutro, it must first be decided whether or not the City wants the driveway in that location. Then this is forwarded to DOT. Vice Mayor' Harmening pointed out that there are certain times of the day when the traffic is heavy in this area. However, he feels that during 80% of the daylight hours there would not be a problem. Commissioner Aguila tries not to overturn the decisions of the advisory boards, but feels a full-scale traffic study is unne- cessary. It is his opinion that if the Planning and Zoning Board has permitted a one-way drive in, someone will drive out. If the driveway is permitted, then it should be an in and out driveway. Commissioners Artis and Matson agreed with Commissioner Aguila. Motion Commissioner Aguila moved that the two-way driveway should be permitted. Commissioner Matson seconded the motion. Vice Mayor Harmening stated he is opposed to making this a two- way driveway. The motion carried 3-1. dissenting vote.)

TABLED This item will remain on the table until the next City Commission meeting. There will be a workshop on Thursday, March 19 at 4:00 p.m. to discuss this item. Proposed Ordinance No. 092-8 Re: Amending Chapter 2, Article III, by creating a new Section 2-46 of the Code of Ordinances to be entitled, "vacancy in Candidacy" to provide for certain procedures to fill vacancies in can- didacy caused by death, withdrawal, or removal from the ballot of qualified candidates Attorney Cherof read Proposed Ordinance No. 092-8 by title only: AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA, AMENDING CHAPTER 2, ARTICLE III, BY CREATING A NEW SECTION 2-46 OF THE CODE OF ORDINANCES OF THE CITY OF BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA, TO BE ENTITLED, "VACANCY IN CANDIDACY" TO PROVIDE FOR CERTAIN PROCEDURES TO FILL VACANCIES IN CANDIDACY CAUSED BY DEATH, WITHDRAWAL, OR REMOVAL FROM THE BALLOT OF QUALIFIED CANDIDATES; PROVIDING FOR SEVERABILITY; PROVIDING FOR CONFLICTS; AND PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE. Commissioner Aguila questioned the difference between 2.46(a) and 2.46(b)1. Attorney Cherof explained that 2.46(a) deals with withdrawal of the qualified candidate and the 2.46(b)1 deals with death or removal. After discussion, it was determined there was no difference in the two areas and Commissioner Aguila requested 2.46(b)1 be eliminated. Section 2.46(a) will be changed to read "...withdrawal or removal..." Commissioner Aguila also questioned Page 3, Paragraph C, Line 15 and stated he is in favor of the person serving until the next general election rather than for the entire term. The Commis- sion was in agreement on this point. Motion Commissioner Aguila moved the approval of Proposed Ordinance No. 092-8 on first reading with changes. City Clerk Sue Kruse polled the vote which carried 4-0. - 6 - MINUTES - REGULAR CITY COMMISSION MEETING BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA MARCH 17, 1992 Proposed Ordinance No, 092-9 Re: Amendments to Budget Appropriations Ordinance (FY 91-92) Attorney Cherof read Proposed Ordinance No. 092-9 by title only: AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA, AMENDING ORDINANCE NO. O91-68 BY AMENDING THE SUM APPROPRIATED TO THE GENERAL FUND; PROVIDING THAT EACH AND EVERY OTHER TERM AND PROVISION OF ORDINANCE NO. 091-68 SHALL REMAIN IN FULL FORCE AND EFFECT AS PREVIOUSLY ENACTED; PROVIDING FOR CONFLICTS, SEVERABILITY, CODIFICATION AND AN EFFECTIVE DATE. City Manager Miller stated that an analysis of the revenue stream will be lower than previously anticipated in the amount of approximately $500,000. If budget adjustments are not made soon, funds will be expended without money coming in and the City will be operating in the red. The City will be losing money on sales ~ax. After five months, it is apparent the City will be at last year's level and anticipated growth, factored in by the State Will not materialize. We are anticipating a shortfall of approximately $140,000 to $150,000 in the sales tax. Mr. Miller does not expect the sales tax to grow within the coming months. There will also be shortfalls in the building permit fees. For the first five months, collections averaged approximately $33,700 per month. Although $70,000 was collected in March, there is no guarantee that will continue. With respect to plan reviews, the situation is similar. Collections in this area were averaged at $14,000 per month over a five-month period. The loss of revenue in these two areas could amount to over $200,000. Several areas have been reviewed with regard to cuts. It is pre- ferred to save the programs until October because Mr. Miller feels a downward trend will continue in the budgetary process. It is possible that property appraisals will be decreased 5% next year. That could result in a loss of up to $400,000. Much of the City's revenue comes from the tax. The reduction in the ad valorem tax of approximately $10,000 to $15,000 will be caused by the decrease in the assessed valuation. Non-payment of taxes by individuals also needs to be factored in. In 1991, 2.5% was uncollectible which amounted to $388,000. This revenue will be lost. The easiest way to cut is to freeze all vacant positions. They will be reviewed during the budgetary process. Laying off of full-time employees is also a means to cut expenses. Three posi- tions in Building, one in Police and the Director of Community Improvement have been proposed for layoffs. Reducing the costs for materials and supplies amounts to $60,000. The City's budget is approximately 80% personnel oriented. - 7 - MINUTES - REGULAR CITY COMMISSION MEETING BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA MARCH 17, 1992 It was confirmed by Commissioner Aguila that the department heads are in agreement with Mr. Miller's recommendations in most cases. Commissioner Aguila expressed concern with regard to the position of Director of Community Improvement. He wondered what work would be eliminated. Mr. Miller pointed out that the housing programs and the downtown development area will be continued. The Planning Department has been performing the duties associated with the downtown area and Wilfred Hawkins has taken over the housing programs. The program was instituted because of funds which were appropriated in past years. There will be no appropriation from the General Fund next year. It is no longer feasible to keep a Community Improvement staff of five people. Approximately 30% to 40% of Community Improvement's budget is for administration. Commissioner Matson complimented Wilfred Hawkins and Octavia Sherrod for their exceptional work. It was pointed out to the Commissioners that even though the position of Director of Community Improvement has been vacant for approximately eight (8) months, the program has continued on track with current staff. Commissioner Artis wondered if the Director of Community improvement, who is currently on disability, had used up all of the disability benefits. Bill Sullivan, Personnel Director, stated that a person is eligible for Disability until age 65 or until the doctor returns that person to work. Mr. Miller pointed out that the City was forced to reorganize those responsibilities and the programs have continued to move forward. Mr. Sullivan informed all present that the disability benefits will continue even if the person is laid off. He further stated that person will be put on the reemployment list for a period of two years. If a position becomes available, that person could be rehired. Eddie Mitchell wondered how the City has gotten into such a mess. Vice Mayor Harmening explained that since 1985, the General Fund has been bleeding to death. We have used money from other sour- ces to replenish the General Fund. The situation with Tradewinds has caused the Fund to "hemorrhage". He believes the cuts need to be deeper in order to avoid problems later in the year. In 1986-87, the City hired 112 people and we have continued to hire employees since then. We. grew faster than what our budget will permit. Mr. Miller pointed out that we do not have a reserve fund to fall back on. Mr. Mitchell asked if services will be provided to the citizens at the same level when employees are laid off. Mr. Miller con- firmed that services will be provided. Mr. Mitchell pointed out that there are fifty (50) employees in upper management posi- tions. Four of those individuals are African Americans. He stated that when layoffs are considered, it seems to be an African American who is laid off. He fears that if this posi- - 8 - MINUTES - REGULAR CITY COMMISSION MEETING BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA MARCH 17, 1992 tion is reinstituted, it will not be filled with an African American. He further stated that if the department is to be eli- minated, make sure no one tries to do that. Mr. Miller responded that when a person is laid off, his/her name is put on a rehire list for two years. Any similar job available would be offered to that person. Mr. Mitchell stated'that when consideration is given to the budget for fiscal year 92-93, he hopes no thought is given to cutting the positions of Assistant to the City Manager, the Assistant Personnel Director or the Deputy Building Official since they are the only African Americans left in upper manage- ment positions. Mr. Miller pointed out that color and sex are not considerations when position eliminations are considered. During the last budgetary process the Management Services Director position was eliminated. A white male held that posi- tion. Prior to that, an Assistant to the City Manager position was eliminated which had been occupied by a white lady. That position was eliminated when she retired. Ed Leamon, President of the Firefighters' Union, spoke about the %-~o vacant positions in the Fire Department that will not be filled. When Fire Station #3 was opened, it was determined that twenty-five (25) men were needed to man the station and its apparatus. The aerial platform is located at that station. When the previous budget cuts were made, staff was reduced to sixteen (16). They are operating with a skeleton crew. Two firefighters were offered and accepted jobs with other fire departments. Station #3 is now operating below a skeleton crew. Mr. Leamon pointed out that the firefighters, prior to negotiations, offered not to take a cost-of-living raise or a merit raise. A new uni- form system was offered at a monetary savings to the City. The Fire Department also offered not to sell back sick time which benefits the City. He stated that the aerial platform is sent out undermanned. Vice Mayor Harmening feels $500,000 was wasted when that piece of equipment was purchased because there is no need for the aerial platform. If the height limit remains at 45', the City will never require this equipment. Mr. Leamon disagreed with Vice Mayor Harmening and pointed out the situation with the man hanging from the Water Tower as an example of the need for this equipment. Mr. Leamon stated that manning of this equipment is of the utmost importance because a disaster will eventually occur. Alternative methods of cutting must be investigated. vice Mayor Harmening disagreed with everything said by Mr. Leamon. Mr. Leamon stated that the people setting the minimal standards have been in the business a very long time. - 9 - MINUTES - REGULAR CITY COMMISSI°N MEETING BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA MARCH 17, 1992 In response to Commissioner Aguila's question regarding alter- native suggestions for cutbacks, Mr. Leamon suggested using alternative revenue sources. He stated the City is giving away alternative revenue sources every year. Equipment and trained personnel are sent out on EMS calls. We offer the best EMS system, but we put our equipment and personnel in private company ambulances and transport them at hundreds of dollars per trans- port fee. This occurs daily. If the assignment fees from Medicare and Medicaid for ACLS transports were accepted, enough money could be generated to offset more than the two needed fire- fighters. There is a $210 assignment for an ACLS transport by Medicare and Medicaid. Vice Mayor Harmening stated that this was not successful when tried by Palm Beach County in 1976. The collection rate was approximately 10%. Mr. Leamon pointed out that Medicare and Medicaid pay the assignment fee. Many communi- ties in Palm Beach County are doing this with positive results. Commissioner Artis clarified that Mr. Leamon's suggestion was for the City to do its own transporting. Vice Mayor Harmening pointed out that the Fire Department will be back at budget time to request additional equipment and personnel because that equipment is enroute to the hospital or returning to the station and not available when needed. Commissioner Matson explained that she was previously opposed to cutting the Fire Inspector positions because of health and safety issues involving the citizens and she is now against cutting the firefighter positions. Mr. Ness is doing a feasibility study at the present time. The City is not licensed to provide Advanced Life Support transpor- tation at this time. The license comes up for renewal in September or October of this year. At that time, the City will apply for the necessary transport certificate. Chief Ed Allen stated a study is being made to determine how this can be done without affecting the service to the citizens. Mr. Ness will provide some figures within a month. Margot Copeland, of the Buildtnq Department, discussed the image of the Building Department. The Building Department now has a good image with the public. If positions are eliminated, that image will be destroyed. She stated the Building Department has finally won over the contractors. Cutting the position of Inspection Clerk will not be enough money for the City to over- come the loss to the image of the Department. She asked that other alternatives be considered. Commissioner Matson would like the position to remain intact, but realizes that the projected revenue is not being generated. She questioned how many departments throughout the City have two Administrative Assistants. Mr. Sullivan stated that the Building Department is the only one with two Administrative~ Assistants. - 10 - MINUTES - REGULAR CITY COMMISSIO}{ ~ETIN~ BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA MARCH 17, 1992 Commissioner Matson has a problem with this and feels there is not enough work being generated to warrant these two positions. Vice Mayor Harmening feels the entire department is overstaffed compared to Delray Beach and Boca Raton. He favors cutting the clerical positions and any additional deeper cuts. In response to Commissioner Aguila's question, City Manager Miller stated that cutting one Administrative Assistant would not be enough to offset the firefighters. Mr. Miller further stated that if cuts other than those being proposed are requested, he would prefer an opportunity to speak with the department heads. Vice Mayor Harmening stated that if the Commission wishes to hire two firefighters rather than sell the aerial platform, two Fire Inspectors should be eliminated. Chief Allen explained that no equipment goes out which is not properly manned. The Fire Department never intended to have .enough manpower to equip all of the equipment when Fire Station #3 was opened. He repeated that no equipment goes out under- manned. Vice Mayor Harmening suggested manning is an issue for collective bargaining. Mr. Leamon stated that the safety of the fire- fighters should be a concern of the Commission. Vice Mayor Harmening agreed that their safety is a concern, but manning is not. Commissioner Matson is concerned that we are below the minimal manning standards. Commissioner Aguila would prefer to give City Manager Miller an opportunity to return with further suggestions on cuts in the Building Department or erase the perception that they are under- worked. Commissioner Artis would like to see the figures from the firefighters. City Manager Miller does not think the figures will be available for the next meeting and cuts need to be made soon. Motion Commissioner Aguila moved the approval of the recommendations of the City Manager and asked for further study on additional cuts in the Building Department before second reading. Commissioner Artis seconded the motion. At Attorney Cherof's suggestion, the motion was amended to incor- porate, "...amending the sum appropriated to the General Fund and to the Community Redevelopment Agency Community Improvement Fund..." into the Ordinance. The amendment was accepted by Commissioner Aguila and seconded by Commissioner Artis. City Clerk Sue Kruse polled the vote. The motion carried 3-1 with Commissioner Matson casting the dissenting vote. - 11 - MINUTES - REGULAR CITY COMMISSION MEETING BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA MARCH 17, 1992 Resolutions: Proposed Resolution No, R92-38 Re: Authorize the execu- tion of an agreement for maintenance and repair of four computers in the Personnel and Recreation Departments between the City of Boynton Beach and CompuAdd Attorney Cherof read Proposed Resolution No. R92-38 by title only: A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA, AUTHORIZING THE MAYOR AND CITY CLERK TO EXECUTE A SERVICE AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY OF BOYNTON BEACH AND COMPUADD CORPORATION; A COPY OF SAID AGREEMENT IS ATTACHED HERETO AS EXHIBIT "A"; AND PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE.

Release of Lien - Homeless No More Attorney Cherof stated this is a request by an attorney on behalf of the not-for-profit organization which is in a position to obtain, as a gift, property on which the City holds a Code Enforcement lien in the amount of $250,000. The organization is requesting the City waive the bond and release the lien so they can acquire the property free and clear. A representative from Homeless No More explained that another shelter, already in operation, has enhanced the community in which it is located. There is no chance of the property reverting back to disrepair. Homeless No More is attempting to house people from the homes which are being demolished. City Attorney Cherof suggested contacting both parties to ask that the deed conveying the property to Homeless No More contain a covenant that in the event it is not maintained as that type of facility or if the property is not maintained, the title will revert to the City. Commissioner Aguila so moved which was Seconded by Commissioner Matson. The motion carried 4-0. OID BUSINESS: None NEW BUSINESS: Items for discussion requested by Commissioner Jose Aguil& City's Site Develogment Review Process Commissioner Aguila spoke about a process which is done by two staffs, and recorded by two Recording Secretaries who produce two sets of minutes. He proposed that a new board be developed which would encompass the responsibilities of both the Planning and Zoning Board and the Community Appearance Board. He further pro- posed that the members of both boards submit a talent bank form or a letter of interest so that the Commissioners can select mem- bers for this new board. By creating this new board, duplication of functions will not occur. The development process will move more quickly, one meeting will be eliminated as well as the need for the use of two Recording Secretaries. Some of the members of the current boards will not be able to be part of the new board since it will consist of seven (7) members and two (2) alternates. However, the City will save money and it will make the review process easier. Co~issioner Aguila - 15 - MINUTES - REGULAR CITY COMMISSION MEETING BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA MARCH 17, 1992 discussed situations Which arose when he was a member of the Planning and Zoning Board. These situations involved the fact that as a Planning & Zoning member, he was unable to comment on color or aesthetics. That responsibility is handled by the Community Appearance Board. Since these areas are so closely related, they should be handled by one board. Commissioner Matson reported this system works very well in Delray. Lake Worth has instituted a similar situation. She related similar situations as Commissioner Aguila when she was a member of the Community Appearance Board. Commissioner Matson thinks this will be cost effective and will streamline the pro- cess. She is in favor of one board. Commissioner Artis recognizes the overlapping of the processes which sometimes creates problems. She is in favor of this sug- gestion. Commissioner Matson stated that many spots on the boards are up for reassignment in April. These people can submit new talent bank forms and some of them will probably be selected for the new board. Vice Mayor Harmening feels this can work, but mentioned disadvan- tages. It will work well when the City is not too busy with development. There are times when both of these board meetings run very late because of certain development projects. If such a project comes before this new board, a heavy burden will be placed on the board members. If the board is required to meet more frequently than once a month, there will be no savings. If the right people sit on the board, this board could work out very well. Consensus There was a consensus of the Commission to have Attorney Cherof prepare an ordinance in draft form laying out the duties of the new board. After discussing this with the Planning Department, Attorney Cherof will bring this draft back to the Commission for review. Commissioner Aguila requested that a procedure be set up to track an applicant's plans as they go through the Planning and Building Departments. This form would be dated, initialled and the dispo- sition noted, by each plan reviewer. At the end of the process, the applicant gets the same form with a place for his comments. The forms should be numerically sequential so that there are no gaps in forms. The applicant will return the form to the City Manager. The City Manager can then determine whether or not adjustments are necessary in any area. Commissioner Aguila stated there is the impression that the review p~ocess takes too - 16 - MINUTES - REGULAR CITY COMMISSION MEETING BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA MARCH 17, 1992 long. He would like to try this to see what kind of comments are returned. Attorney Cherof pointed out that this form would become public record. Don Jaeger, Building Official, advised that a tracking sheet now follows each permit. There is also a separate comment form. Each reviewer logs in and out. The Building Department already uses the forms for comments by the developers. He has seen approximately forty (40) forms which have all been positive. The Planning Department also has similar forms. City Manager Miller will work with the Building Department and Planning Department forms to produce one form for use by both Departments. community Design Code in the Commercial/Business District Commissioner Aguita referred to the yellow and red building which has concerned many of the Commissioners. He would like a revi- Sion to the Code which will require business planning to change their colors to come through the Community Appearance Board to make sure the colors are harmonious. While these 10ud colors attract people, the colors are not harmonious to the neigh- borhood. Vice Mayor Harmening agrees but stated an Ordinance was recently passed allowing a variance in setbacks for enlargement for non- conforming uses. That was an attempt to stimulate development. To go back to more control will produce more work than the new board will be able to handle. David Katz, former Chairman of the Community Redevelopment Advisory Board, stated that although a palette of colors was used by the Community Redevelopment Advisory Board, each case was treated individually. The palette of colors was used only as a guideline. Chris Cutro said this subject has been dealt with on an admin- istrative basis, bringing only certain items before the City Commission. He suggested this be looked at as an appeal of an administrative determination. Chris Cutro and Attorney Cherof will work together to adjust cer- tain Code sections. Attorney Cherof referred back to Item #1 and requested clarifica- tion on the requirements for membership. It was determined the new board will have seven (7) regular members and two (2) alter- nates with some of the members holding certain required qualifi- cations as is a stipulation of the present Community Appearance Board. - 17 - MINUTES - REGULAR CITY COMMISSION MEETING BOYNTON BEACH' FLORIDA MARCH 17, 1992 Discuss a proposed amendment to the Interlocal Agreement between Palm Beach County and the City of Boynton Beach concerning responsibility for the payment on new traffic signals Vice Mayor Harmening felt the City Manager's recommendation was to the point and covers the matter. Motion Commissioner Aguila moved to authorize the City Manager to send his proposal on traffic control devices to the County Engineer. Commissioner Matson seconded the motion which carried 4-0. C, CountyRedistricting Commissioner Matson reported that on March 12 a letter was sent out stating that on March 24th the final hearing for the new districts will be held. This does not afford an opportunity to go to the South County Council of Governments to determine our stand nor does it allow the Municipal League time to decide a stand. This is another power play by the County Commissioners. She expressed her opposition at what they have done to Boynton Beach. We are represented by two Commissioners. They are now considering adding a third. This will interrupt our power base. Commissioner Matson pointed out that over the last year, she has not seen a County Commissioner present at any of the Commission meetings. If they represent us, they should be present to learn what is happening in the City. Commissioner Elmquist attends the COBWRA meetings. Commissioner Matson will attend the meeting on Tuesday to express opposition to the redistricting. She requested a consensus to voice strong opposition. There was no objection. Commissioner Matson will carry with her a letter from the City.

Consider the 1992 Fourth of July Activity/Program for the City of Boynton Beach Vice Mayor Harmening is aware that many of our citizens enjoy the fireworks display on the Fourth of July, but pointed out that it is important to drive home the seriousness of our budget crisis. Commissioner Aguila agreed that this display should not be done at this time since employees have been laid off. Commissioner Artis wondered if the City would consider donations, and what would happen to those donations if the $12,000 could not be raised. Vice Mayor Harmening stated that money would have to be returned to the donors. Consensus There was a consensus of the Commission that the fireworks display is out for this year unless someone can underwrite it. - 20 - MINUTES - REGULAR CITY COMMISSION MEETING BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA MARCH 17, 1992 Consider request from Flagler National Bank to hold Flagler Fun Day at Catalina Centre April 4, 1992 Commissioner Aguila questioned the problem with the 0ktoberfest in the parking lot on Congress Avenue. Commissioner Matson reminded the Commissioners that they wanted to serve alcohol out- doors. A~drea Dorfman, of Flagler National Bank stated this is being done to promote the bank here in Boynton Beach. They believe Fun Day will provide recognition for the bank. The bank will not permit the use of alcoholic beverages. Commissioner Artis favors approval of this request as long as no alcohol will be served. She feels events like this will help to keep businesses in Boynton. Commissioner Aguila wondered if the other businesses would balk at having the parking, lot used in this manner. It was clarified by Ms. Dorfman that the Flagler National Bank parking will be used for this event. Parking for those people attending the event will be located in the back portion of the lot. Motion Commissioner Matson moved the approval of the request from Flagler National Bank to hold Flagler Fund Day at Catalina Centre on April 4, 1992.
