Ratification of South Central Regional Wastewater Treatment & Disposal Board - Executive Director Employment Aqreement Mr. Cheney informed the Council at the South Central Regional Wastewater Treatment & Disposal Board meeting on June 27, 1983, an employment agreement between the Board and David Sloan was unanimously approved and it is necessary for the City Council to ratify this action. This is what we have been looking for for several years. This will employ an administrative director, who will be responsible to the Board for all the employees and all the employees will be responsible to him. He thinks it is a sensible and logical arrangement. Councilman deLong referred to having scrutinized this agreement and moved to ratify this employment agreement for an executive director of the South Central Regional Wastewater Treatment & Disposal Plant and also, that memo No. 1 from the City Manager referring to the agenda for this Special City Council M.eeting dated June 29, 1983, become a part of the public record. Councilman Cassandra seconded the motion. No discussion. ~4otion carried 3-0. Approval of Interlocal Agreement - Local Option Gas Tax Distribution ~. Cheney informed the Council this is a resolution and if adopted, it will approve~ the proposed Interlocal Agreement between Palm Beach County and the municipalities if the tax is passed by the Board of County Commissioners. This provides for two-thirds of the money staying with the County and one- thi~dgoing to the municipalities. This provides for distri- bution between the 34 municipalities based on 70% for lane miles and 30% for population. It provides when the County SPECIAL CITY COUNCIL 5~ETING BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA JUNE 29, 1983 spends their share, they must spend it on roads which have been approved by the Metropolitan Planning Organization's Year 2000 Plan. If the County changes the funding program after the first year, they must get comments fro~ the Metropolitan Planning Organization. A couple cities have suggested that the Metropoli- tan Planning Organization should have the final say on these funds, but he thinks it makes it clearer where to place t~e responsibility if we let the Board of County Commissioners make the decision. It does provide for input from the munici- palities. It does allow the municipalities to spend money on roads we decide upon. He recommends this resolution be adopted and the Mayor be authorized to sign the Interlocal Agreement, and then we will see what the Cohnty Commission does. As requested, Mr. Cheney then read proposed Resolution No. 83-PP by title: A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA, APPROVING THE INTERLOCAL AGREEMENT FOR LOCAL OPTION GASOLINE T~ DISTRIBUTION.
