ANNOUNCEMENTS, COMMUNITY & SPECIAL EVENTS & PRESENTATIONS A. Presentation of Certificates of Appreciation to Park Vista High School Band Members, the Town of Ocean Ridge and City of Boynton Beach Employees who have donated their time and service to support our adopted military unit, the Delta Demons of the 101st Airborne Division. With Special Thanks to the SandSifters, Ms. Latham's 2nd grade class at Poinciana Elementary, the Boynton Beach Republican Club and the AfterSchool Students at the Art Center. Mayor Rodriguez read the names of those receiving certificates for their participation and assistance with the Delta Demons program. Ken Kaleel, Mayor of Ocean Ridge, 2 Meeting Minutes Regular City Commission Boynton Beach, FL February 15, 2011 commented the Town was proud to have helped in the endeavor and is very grateful to the men and women of the Armed Forces. All recipients were congratulated. B. General Election Proclamation - March 8, 2011 - presented by Mayor Jose Rodriguez Mayor Rodriguez read the Proclamation relating to the March 8, 2011 General Election and noted two incumbents were candidates in two districts. 4. PUBLIC AUDIENCE INDIVIDUAL SPEAKERS WILL BE LIMITED TO 3 MINUTE PRESENTATIONS (at the discretion of the Chair, this 3-minute allowance may need to be adjusted depending on the level of business coming before the City Commission) Buck Buchanan, 807 Ocean Inlet Drive, requested all those candidates for the independent CRA Board be notified and understand their presence is needed at the joint workshop with the Commission and CRA. Mr. Buchanan understood Commissioner Holzman's position on not wanting to listen to the presentation. Since it will occur, Mr. Buchanan contended Commissioner Holzman's knowledge and input would be appreciated. Arthur Deruve, 105 Live Oak Lane, appeared after being asked to sign a petition to rescind the permission to build strip clubs in the City. He could not understand why four of the Commissioners approved the establishment of strip clubs in District 4. Generally, a City could not restrict clubs from anywhere in the City. He would vote against the measure even if legal counsel had to be hired to dispute the law requiring cities to allow the clubs. Mr. Deruve applauded the Mayor for voting against the measure. Lisa Bright, 501 NE 53rd Street, Boca Raton, FI, placed a letter into public record a copy of which is available in the City Clerk's office. She read the letter from the State Attorney General's office addressed to Chief Matthew Immler regarding the investigation of Boynton Beach CRA Director, Lisa Bright. "Dear Chief Immler: The Public Integrity Unit has completed the investigation of the above referenced matter. After a thorough investigation, we have not found credible evidence that Mrs. Bright benefited financially as CRA Director from her relationship with Joseph Ferrer. Based on this investigation, we will be closing this matter without further action." Ms. Bright contended the letter represented irrefutable evidence that Boynton Beach City officials conspired with the Palm Beach Post to orchestrate false allegations against her to defame her character and slander her reputation. The claims were based on hearsay, conjecture and innuendo and no evidence to support wrongdoing. There were only personal opinions of impropriety resulting in nine articles in 62 days published by the Palm Beach Post resulting in the loss of her job. A search of Ms. Bright on the 3 Meeting Minutes Regular City Commission Boynton Beach, FL February 15, 2011 internet would yield the negative articles first. The allegations cost the City of Boynton Beach, Palm Beach County and the State of Florida in excess of $100,000. Buying out her contract would have cost less than $50,000. Ms. Bright claimed she, her family and friends were followed to various locations in an attempt to humiliate and intimidate. Monies were paid to confiscate her personal garbage on two occasions to be analyzed, catalogued and photographed at considerable expense. A list of the contents was provided to the newspaper. Ms. Bright thanked Commissioner Hay for being the voice of reason during a disgraceful period for the City of Boynton Beach. Chelsea Collins and another student from Boynton Beach High were present to announce a fundraising activity that the sophomore class council had initiated for the Academic Incentive Program. They sought assistance to motivate the students to pass the FCA T tests and be productive citizens in the work place or attend college. The class had teamed with Applebee's to benefit the students and the consumers. A pancake breakfast would be held on February 26th from 8 a.m. to 10 a.m. Tickets would be $8. Victor Norfus, 261 N. Palm Drive, spoke on behalf of the Heart of Boynton Community Association and congratulated all those who volunteered with the Delta Demons and asked everyone to support the veterans. The Heritage Celebration would be held February 18th with the Night of Joy from 6 to 9 p.m. at the Ezell Hester Center. On Saturday from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. a celebration would be held at the Carolyn Sims Center with speakers and entertainment. The mission is to improve the social, physical and economic health in the Heart of Boynton community by sharing information, facilitating training and education, providing resources and encouraging communication and participation among neighborhoods; government, education institutions and other participants. Mr. Norfus also announced the Community Relations Board held meetings the 2nd Wednesday of each month and they would listen to any concerns. No one else coming forward, Mayor Rodriguez closed the public audience. 5. ADMINISTRATIVE A. Appoint eligible members of the community to serve in vacant positions on City advisory boards Motion Commissioner Orlove moved to appoint Terry Lonergan as a regular member of the Financial Advisory Committee. Vice Mayor Ross seconded the motion. The motion passed. 4 Meeting Minutes Regular City Commission Boynton Beach, FL February 15, 2011 6. CONSENT AGENDA Matters in this section of the Agenda are proposed and recommended by the City Manager for "Consent Agenda" approval of the action indicated in each item, with all of the accompanying material to become a part of the Public Record and subject to staff comments. A. Approve the Minutes from the City Commission meeting held on February 1, 2011. B. PROPOSED RESOLUTION NO. R11-015 - Approve an Agreement with SageView Advisory Group, Inc. to provide a review of the Nationwide and ICMA 457(b) deferred compensation plans that the City offers to employees for their personal retirement savings plans at no cost to the City of Boynton Beach. C. PROPOSED RESOLUTION NO. R11-027 - Approve an Agreement for Water Service Outside of the City Limits with OK Seahorse LLLP, for the property located at 4001 N. Ocean Blvd., Delray Beach, FL 33483 Commissioner Holzman had pulled Item 6.C for discussion. A letter had been received approximately a year ago, from the Town of Gulfstream, requesting to annex the same property. Mr. Bressner understood the matter was on a referendum to be considered on March 8, 2011. The existing Interlocal Agreement with the Town of Gulfstream includes the parcel, but the agreement would become moot if it were to be annexed. Motion Commissioner Holzman moved to approve. Commissioner Hay seconded the motion. The motion passed. D. PROPOSED RESOLUTION NO. R11-028 - Approve the Second Amendment to the Interlocal Agreement (ILA) between the City and the Board of County Commissioners that authorized the City to receive funding as a partner in the continued planning and implementation of the Youth Violence Prevention Program (YVPP) through December 31,2010, extending the term to March 31, 2011 E. PROPOSED RESOLUTION NO. R11-029 - Adopt the City of Boynton Beach's Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Substantial Plan Amendment to facilitate acceptance of NSP-3 Funding. Commissioner Orlove had pulled Item 6.E to get an update on the Block Grant Program. Octavia Sherrod, Community Development Manager, reported 15 properties had been purchased with 12 under contract or being rehabilitated. Three properties are complete 5 Meeting Minutes Regular City Commission Boynton Beach, FL February 15, 2011 and there are five under contract for purchase through the NSP-1 program. This is a continuation of the funding. Commissioner Holzman requested clarification on the boundaries of the expanded area where the monies could be spent. Ms. Sherrod gave a general description as the two tracks being south of City Hall beginning on Ocean Avenue to SE 23rd Avenue bordered on the west by 1-95 and to the east by FEC tracks. Housing and Urban Development (HUD) has to approve the application. The $200,000 would be used for the single family homes at the old Boynton Terrace location. It is a financing mechanism for the purchasers. The CRA had requested funding to buy down the cost of the housing as needed. Vivian Brooks, Interim CRA Director, advised a down payment assistance program for the buyers had been discussed. Mayor Rodriguez recognized the program was to refurbish foreclosed homes. Ms. Sherrod acknowledged that was one of the eligible uses. The down payment assistance would also be an eligible use. Commissioner Holzman agreed with the Mayor that the money should be spent to refurbish foreclosed homes rather than assist with new homes. Commissioner Orlove inquired about the timeline to use the money. Ms. Sherrod replied 50% had to be spent within two years and the remainder used within three years. Ms. Brooks added the CRA had issued an RFP and responses could be 60 days and the permit for site development is a 90 day process. The amount for the assistance would be minimal to assist with closing cost. A 3% down payment would be required. Commissioner Orlove was in total agreement with moving forward with homes that are blighted and if money remains toward the end of the cycle it could be used for down payment assistance. He thought the monies should be earmarked for the Heart of Boynton. Mayor Rodriguez noted all the funds were being expended in the northeast and northwest sections of the City. Ms. Sherrod clarified HUD had directed the funds be concentrated where the biggest gain can be made. Commissioner Hay recalled the project had been ongoing for some time. He felt the CRA and Community Development Department had devised a plan to use the funds efficiently and would satisfy the need to see some development in the area. Commissioner Holzman indicated the funds are now available for the Forest Park area and would be a significant improvement to a blighted area with many foreclosures. The program should now grow to other neighborhoods that deserve the attention of the Commission. The current funds should be focused on other parts of the City. The Ocean Breeze West project status is still tentative at best. Commissioner Orlove understood his District would not be getting any of the monies. If the money were concentrated in the areas mentioned by Commissioner Holzman and 6 Meeting Minutes Regular City Commission Boynton Beach, FL February 15, 2011 as things progressed there could flexibility to continue to expand the program. Vice Mayor Ross added several homes in District 4 received funding too. Quintus Greene, Development Director, clarified HUD has criteria that has to be applied to the expenditure of the funds. The criteria had been reviewed and two census tracts, south of Ocean Avenue meet HUD's criteria. There is an understanding with the CRA regarding eligibility of funds to provide assistance to home owners. The objective was to spend the money within the required timeframe. Mayor Rodriguez summarized the $1 million plus originally awarded for the Neighborhood Stabilization Program primarily intended for municipalities to buy foreclosed houses, renovate and sell them. Houses were bought in Districts 4 and 2. There are other tracts available in District 3. Commissioner Orlove advised there were no houses in District 1 that met HUD standards. Mayor Rodriguez felt the funding should support another neighborhood. There are many foreclosures in the Forest Park neighborhood and towards the Bethesda Hospital area. Vice Mayor Ross clarified any decision would have no impact on the Ocean Breeze funding. Commissioner Hay looked forward to not seeing the blighted area within the City. At this time it was obvious where monies needed to be spent and it was in District 2 that is suffering the most. Continuing in the same direction would be the best use of the funds rather than the monies going elsewhere. Commissioner Orlove pointed out there was indecision on what was to be included in the Ocean Breeze project and concentrating on District 3. Near the end of the three- year timeframe, spending more money for the Ocean Breese project with more community input could be possible. Commissioner Hay applauded Commissioner Orlove's thinking, but he could not support the proposal. A heated discussion ensued on the use of the monies already expended and the fact it was all in one area. Mr. Greene suggested the financing of units for the Ocean Breeze project be considered and the $200,000 be devoted to the three census tracts that have been determined to be eligible. Two are south of Ocean Avenue. It would give staff the opportunity to work in all three of the census tracts. Motion Commissioner Holzman moved to spend the $1.168 million in the new tracts and hold out $200,000 for a period of one year to assess the Ocean Breeze project progress. Commissioner Orlove seconded the motion. Commissioner Hay inquired if staff had comments regarding the proposed plan. Ms. Sherrod responded a plan had to be submitted and it would have to be amended at a later time. 7 Meeting Minutes Regular City Commission Boynton Beach, FL February 15, 2011 The motion passed 4-1 (Commissioner Hay dissenting). The changed directive would be for no activity in tract 6100. Mayor Rodriguez indicated the activity would be in tract 6201 or 6203 being south of Ocean Avenue. The $200,000 would stay in the plan and be submitted to HUD to be used in year two of the program. Mr. Greene cautioned the decision remained with HUD. Mr. Bressner noted a status report on the funding would be presented after the response from HUD would be received. F. Accept the written report to the Commission for purchases over $10,000 for the month of January 2011. 7. BIDS AND PURCHASES OVER $100,000 A. PROPOSED RESOLUTION NO. R11-030 - Approve the piggy-back of the Sheriff's Contract for the purchase of new and replacement vehicles as approved in the FY 2010/11 Budget in the amount of $536,630 from various vendors Commissioner Holzman inquired if the vehicles being replaced were included in the plan to extend the life cycles. Jeff Livergood, Director of Public Works and Engineering, replied the vehicles were in the revised plan. The new plan eliminates some of the fleet, reduces the size of the vehicles and reduces the life of the vehicles. The oldest cars are ten and eleven years old, non-police vehicles. Some heavy equipment may last longer. The newest cars are 2009. Mr. Bressner noted it varies with the use of the vehicles. There had been a full-blown cost analysis on the maintenance schedule. Mr. Livergood noted the analysis was done every year with fleet budgeting. There will be salvage value Motion Commissioner Holzman moved to approve. Vice Mayor Ross seconded the motion. The motion passed. B. PROPOSED RESOLUTION NO. R11-031 - Accept a FEMA Fire Act Grant award in the amount of $138,880.00 for grant #EMW-2010-FO-06789 with a required city match of $34,720.00 and authorizing the expenditure of the entire program amount of $173,600.00 for the purchase of Firefighter Safety and Survival Equipment (RIT Packs) and the purchase and installation of "Direct Capture" diesel filtering equipment for 18 diesel powered apparatus in the current fire department fleet as described in the grant application and award notification. Commissioner Holzman asked how the fire assessments funds could be utilized. Deputy Chief Carter noted the grant required a 20% match and part of the monies 8 Meeting Minutes Regular City Commission Boynton Beach, FL February 15, 2011 would come from the fire assessment. The approved expenditure is for fire fighting equipment. Mr. Bressner commented no funds from the assessment are used for fire suppression activities. Commissioner Holzman noted $22,500 would be needed annually to maintain the equipment. Deputy Chief Carter explained the life span of the diesel filters is only two to three years depending on use. Newer vehicles will have filters that last the entire life of the vehicle. The current vehicles have no filters and the grant would be utilized to clean the diesel exhaust. Commissioner Holzman expressed concern that spending had to be tightened to meet the new budget constraints. Commissioner Orlove confirmed that FEMA would be paying 80% of the cost while the City would pay 20%. Motion Commissioner Orlove moved to approve. Vice Mayor Ross seconded the motion. The motion passed. 8. CODE COMPLIANCE & LEGAL SETTLEMENTS None 9. PUBLIC HEARING 7 P.M. OR AS SOON THEREAFTER AS THE AGENDA PERMITS The City Commission will conduct these public hearings in its dual capacity as Local Planning Agency and City Commission. A. PROPOSED ORDINANCE NO. 11-002 - FIRST READING - Approve the establishment of a zoning overlay (CDRV 11-001) for the general vicinity of Ocean Avenue, between the F.E.C. Railroad and Seacrest Boulevard, modifying the Land Development Regulations by establishing revised development standards and uses consistent with, and implementing the vision contained within the Downtown Master Plan. Applicant: City initiated Attorney Cherof read Proposed Ordinance No. 11-002 by title only on first reading. Ed Breese, Principal Planner, reported staff had been working to change the regulations to assist in implementing the Downtown Master Plan as well as four CRA initiatives. The concept would be to create a public art and cultural corridor between the Marina and go west along Ocean Avenue. There would be adaptive reuse of existing buildings and relocation of historic structure onto vacant parcels along Ocean Avenue. A sense of place would be created with small shops and restaurants for a pedestrian-friendly area. The current zoning was not adequate to implement the perceived changes for the area. The long-range plan would not accommodate the small lots along Ocean Avenue, 9 Meeting Minutes Regular City Commission Boynton Beach, FL February 15, 2011 but rather the assembling of lots for large projects. Tenants for two CRA owned lots were being sought for the adaptive reuse of residential structures. The overlay district was designed with the FEC corridor as the east boundary, Seacrest Boulevard as the west boundary and SE 1st Avenue as the south boundary and NE 1st Avenue with the exception of an alley north of NE 1st Avenue. No existing building or structures would be non-conforming. The regulations are sensitive to the historic properties in the zone currently or in the future. Staff recommended approval of the Ocean Avenue overlay zone. Vice Mayor Ross asked what CRA staff members had been involved. responded it was Vivian Brooks and Michael Simons. Mr. Breese Motion Vice Mayor Ross moved to approve. Commissioner Hay seconded the motion. Vote City Clerk Prainito called the roll. The vote was 5-0. B. PROPOSED ORDINANCE NO. 11-008 - FIRST READING - Approve the abandonment of 18.2-foot wide unimproved alley located between West Ocean Avenue and SW 1 st Avenue, extending to Seacrest Boulevard from SW 2nd Street. Applicant: City initiated. STAFF RECOMMENDS ITEM BE TABLED TO THE MARCH 15TH MEETING to allow time to further discuss and resolve issues raised at the Board hearing and/or recently identified involving alternative access, access easements, property maintenance and liability. Date certain tabling will ensure that the required legal ads/public notices are preserved. 10. CITY MANAGER'S REPORT None 11. UNFINISHED BUSINESS None 12. NEW BUSINESS None 10 Meeting Minutes Regular City Commission Boynton Beach, FL February 15, 2011 13. LEGAL A. PROPOSED ORDINANCE NO. 11-003 - SECOND READING - Approve revision of Chapter 15-8 titled "Noise Control" (Exhibit "A") Attorney Cherof read Proposed Ordinance No. 11-003 by title only on second reading. Scott Blasie, Code Compliance Administrator, corrected the data that the plainly audible levels and decibel levels had been set back one hour. It is joint project involving CRA staff members, Planning and Zoning and Development staff members also. It is separate from the live entertainment permit provisions. Both items had been initiated by staff. The changes to the Noise Ordinance involved changing the definition of weekend from Saturday Sunday to Friday Saturday. The decibel levels are consistent with other cities. The hours for decibel level compliance were extended one hour to benefit the businesses. The plainly audible standard is 100 feet away, if you can hear the music, it would be a violation of the Code if it was not within the time parameters. The level has to be significantly higher than the ambient noise level. Citations can be issued by police officers for violations. The first visit would include a request to turn the noise down. If it becomes repetitive, a citation would be issued. There was discussion relating to businesses having to cease their entertainment at 10 p.m. on weekdays. They can continue if they keep the decibel level under the threshold. Mayor Rodriguez inquired about the data used to select the hour of 11 p.m. Mr. Blasie responded it was a consensus of staff. The data relating to other municipalities had been reviewed. Commissioner Holzman inquired if consideration was given to setting Thursday, Friday and Saturday as the weekend. Mr. Blasie replied business owners and residents agreed that Friday and Saturday should be considered the weekend. Input was garnered from many business owners and neighboring residents. Mayor Rodriguez had received concerns that the 11 p.m. time limit on week days seemed to be late and suggested 10 p.m. may be more appropriate. Commissioner Holzman and Vice Mayor Ross wanted to include Thursday in the definition of weekend. Mr. Blasie added holidays were added to the regulations for holiday hours. Motion Commissioner Holzman moved to approve the Ordinance changing the time period from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. and changing the definition of weekday to Sunday thru Wednesday. Commissioner Orlove offered a substitute motion that Sunday through Thursday be 10 p.m. and Friday and Saturday and holidays would be midnight. Commissioner Hay seconded the motion. Mayor Rodriguez opened the issue for public hearing. 11 Meeting Minutes Regular City Commission Boynton Beach, FL February 15, 2011 Ginny and Bob Foot, 760 East Ocean Avenue, Coastal Towers, had worked with staff since 1983 on the definitions in the ordinances. Businesses were consulted, yet condos owners had to wait until second readying of the ordinance to make comments. Modifying the ordinance may have value. The underlying complaint is flaunting the existing ordinances by the Banana Boat and the prospect of limited enforcement of any noise law. They asked for police action on 140 situations over the years and many after a cease and desist order had been issued in 2006. The violations have been both minor and extreme. Mr. Foot suggested the limits be extended for certain holidays to 1 a.m. for New Years Eve. He did not understand the need for 13 holidays in addition to every Friday and Saturday. He presented signatures from many residents protesting the lack enforcement of the current code and loosening of the law. Mr. Foot asked that the time be maintained at 10 p.m. on week days and urged the Commission to give the police the ability to enforce the law that is approved. Steve Skaggs, 728 Casa Loma Boulevard, with Two George's Restaurant and a business owner in Boynton Beach for 14 years felt he did try to cooperate with the neighbors. A reasonable noise ordinance is necessary for both the business owners and the residents. However, business owners do need to provide the customers with entertainment when possible. Boynton Beach is a seasonal town with many visitors that do not maintain the same schedule as the year-around residents. Mr. Skaggs requested the noise ordinance be extended to 11 p.m. during the week to generate business and encourage visitors and residents to the area. Being business friendly would assist in generating extra tax dollars. He suggested only a few residents were making many calls to complain. The police have visited the site on many occasions and generally a request to turn the music down solves the problem. Mr. Skaggs requested the hours be until 11 o'clock Sunday through Thursday and midnight Friday and Saturday. Peter Armour, at Marina Village, 700 E. Boynton Beach Blvd., spoke on behalf of a woman in Marina Village who had to wear ear plugs on weekends when her door is open due to the outside noise. He was also speaking for the Delta pilot who gets up at 4:30 a.m. without a good night's sleep. Even with his hurricane impact doors and windows closed, the music is still audible from the Banana Boat especially on Sunday nights. Two George's have been good neighbors. Mr. Armour did not advocate for less music on the weekends. Mike Minia, lived at Marina Village, echoed the concerns of other residents. The music was loud and did go longer than allowed. There are nights when the noise goes on until one or two a.m. in the parking lot. The music has continued until 11 p.m. on many occasions. Phil Kayco, Marina Village resident, commended Two Georges, but indicated the noise level at Banana Boat is beyond reason and very loud. He asked the ordinance be enforced, especially the decibelleve!. There is loitering occurring after hours. 12 Meeting Minutes Regular City Commission Boynton Beach, FL February 15, 2011 Charles Alt, 1625 Renaissance Commons Boulevard, indicated the area is very noisy with amplified entertainment and loud crowds. When buying the property, the promise of upscale restaurants did not envision outdoor bars and entertainers. The crowds linger after the music stops. The noise is very audible and should be controlled. Mr. Alt did not feel Boynton Beach should become another West Palm Beach with its associated crime and party atmosphere. Victor Norfus, 261 N. Palm Drive, contended the noise ordinance should be on a 3/4 week and adjust the hours accordingly. The acoustics could contribute to the noise level for certain areas. The placement of speakers should also be regulated to reduce the sound impact. He thoughtThursday should be included in the weekend definition. Luke Therien with Banana Boat, 739 E. Ocean Avenue, advised it was a family-owned business since 1978 and worked with the Police Department to be within the law and regulations. The two restaurants had worked to build the tourist industry downtown along with the fishing village. It is an attractive area. He favored the proposed Code rules. The business is located in the business district and an area of tourism. Both establishments were built before the condos. Live music has been the same for the past five or six years with one saxophone player or other solo performers. A management team tries to strictly enforce rules and shuts down at 10 p.m. Most of the complaints filed have not been valid and involved only one person complaining. The issue should be if the complaint is real and should be addressed. On Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights the music is all outside. Any complaints are dealt with an immediate response to shut down the noise. The Banana Boat does have music an hour later than Two Georges' but it is not illegal. The Proposed Ordinance is fair, but strict and he stood ready to embrace the regulations. Craig Gurlac, 100 NE 6th Street in Marina Village, indicated noise is not a problem. He faced the restaurants directly and like all cities with high rise buildings, they attract a lot of noise. The business owners do turn the music down at a reasonable hour and move the outside entertainment indoors. Chief Immler reported from October 21,2010 to 8:30 p.m., February 15th, 98 calls for noise disturbances were received. Three were for noise at Banana Boat or Two George's and three for noise at Renaissance Commons. The remaining 92 calls were from private residences. There were no summons issued or arrests and no fines levied. Commissioner Holzman questioned the impact of the ordinance on the future development of downtown and Renaissance Commons and the ability to attract businesses to Boynton Beach. Mr. Greene thought the Ordinance as proposed was reasonable and recommended adoption. If attracting tourism is the goal, the City should adopt policy to encourage tourism. A key element is the comfort level of tourists to dine and be entertained. Banana Boat has been in existence for over 30 years and Renaissance Commons was developed as a mixed-use area. The Ordinance balances 13 Meeting Minutes Regular City Commission Boynton Beach, FL February 15, 2011 the various interests of the parties. Ms. Brooks agreed that attracting business and particularly restaurants is critical to attracting tourists and the businesses cannot be restricted to the point they cannot succeed. Several of the new businesses coming into the area have expressed the desire to have live music. An energized downtown has to have energized City regulations to entice visitors and residents to remain in the City. She felt the ordinance as written was fair. Any City has a level of ambient noise and it has to be accepted. It is a tool to attract businesses. Younger people eat out a lot and have the expendable income to do so. They do dine later in the evening. Mayor Rodriguez emphasized the ordinance does not close the businesses at 10 p.m. or 11 p.m., it simple turns the music or entertainment lower. Mayor Rodriguez sought input from Chief Immler on any enforcement issues. The Chief advised Code Enforcement has the trained personnel to measure the decibel levels and not the officers. The plainly audible standard is used by the officers for all noise complaints and it applies even to private residences. If it is a persistent issue, the matter would be referred to Mr. Blasie for the decibel measurements. Chief Immler advised the goal is to be equitable and it is not a problem for the Police Department. Mayor Rodriguez closed public comments. Motion Commissioner Orlove amended his motion to go with staffs recommendation on the time limits Sunday through Thursday 11 p.m. and midnight on Friday, Saturday and holidays. Commissioner Hay seconded the motion. Commissioner Orlove explained the City needed to be more helpful with its businesses and create an environment to attract businesses and respect the residents. Controlling the noise within a timeframe can be appreciated by everyone. In season the time should be expanded rather than restricted. Vice Mayor Ross recognized residents from District 4 were present and had met with her and she appreciated their concern for the noise levels. The business owners had also spoken with her and voiced their concerns. She hoped the owners of Banana Boat could attempt to monitor and control the noise in the parking lot after hours if possible. All restaurant owners should keep that in mind. Mayor Rodriguez proposed a compromise of 10:30 p.m. Sunday through Thursday. Vice Mayor Ross added the issue should be revisited in a year as plans and projects move forward. Commissioner Hay understood the concerns, but thought Mr. Greene's perspective was more appropriate to grow the area and agreed with staff's recommendation. There have not been that many complaints and it is a mixed-use project. 14 Meeting Minutes Regular City Commission Boynton Beach, FL February 15, 2011 Commissioner Orlove suggested some type of signage may be helpful to inform the public. Mr. Bressner expressed concern that the reaction to such signage could be problematic. There would have to cooperation with the property owners to place the signs since most parking lots are not public right-of-ways. Vote City Clerk Prainito called the roll. The vote was 5-0. B. PROPOSED ORDINANCE NO. 11-004 - SECOND READING - Approve an Ordinance titled "Live Entertainment Permits" Attorney Cherof read Proposed Ordinance NO.11-004 by title only on second reading. Mr. Blasie mentioned staff would continue to work with the establishments and signage would be possible. Garbage collection schedules have been altered to accommodate residents and noise concerns. The Live Entertainment ordinance would give staff a chance to view the layouts and may alleviate some of the concerns of the residents. Motion Commissioner Holzman moved to approve Proposed Ordinance No. 11-004. Commissioner Hay seconded the motion. No one came forward for the public hearing. Vote City Clerk Prainito called the roll. The vote was 5-0. C. PROPOSED ORDINANCE NO. 11-006 - SECOND READING - Approve establishing a Historic Preservation Property Tax Exemption Program for the City of Boynton Beach Attorney Cherof read Proposed Ordinance NO.11-006 by title only on second reading. Commissioner Holzman asked how the tax abatement would be enforced and the determination of the increased value that would be exempt. Mike Rumpf, Director of Planning and Zoning, explained the exemption would be based on the appraisal system and comparables. It could be much less than the cost of the renovations. Commissioner Orlove understood the exemption would be based on 100% of the increase in assessed value based on renovations or rehabilitation. The property appraiser would make the determination of the historic preservation value and the owner would have the right to appeal. Commissioner Holzman confirmed the onus 15 Meeting Minutes Regular City Commission Boynton Beach, FL February 15, 2011 would be on the property owner. There would be an interlocal agreement between the City and the County. The City's portion of the ad valorem tax is approximately 50% of the total ad valorem tax bill.

Motion Commissioner Holzman moved to approve with Mr. Buchanan having a two-year term and Mr. Karageorge having a four-year term. Commissioner Orlove seconded the motion. Mayor Rodriguez pointed out Mr. Cairo was a candidate who had private development experience and had attended many of the meetings. It might be appropriate to add him to the Board to have the benefit of his expertise in the industry. Commissioner Orlove noted there was one other candidate that had a similar background and had been attending the meetings. There was a unanimous understanding to bring the two designated candidates to groom them to eventually have the Commission step out of the equation. Commissioner Orlove hoped Mr. Cairo and others would continue to be involved and be part of the independent board when the transition was finalized. Vice Mayor Ross agreed there were two other candidates she would have seriously considered, but there are only two positions at this time. Vote City Clerk Prainito called the roll.

After a thoroush investigation, we have not fDlmd credible evidence that Mrs. Brijht benefited financially u eRA director from her R11ationship with Joseph Ferrer. Based on this investigation, we will be closiDg this matter without further action. Sincerely, Bryan Poulton Assistant State Attorney Public Integrity Unit BP/meh What does ni9.!!!!.Pot music do for you?! Two years ago I found that the Boynton Beach ordinance intended to control noise allowed music to be heard off premises until midnight on Sunday nights and on all holidays. The ordinance says that music must be restricted on Friday nights after 10:00 PM as it is Monday through Thursday. You have probably been disturbed by music after 10:00 PM on Fridays despite the ordinance's limitation. If you have called the BB Police (732-8116) to ask for enforcement of the code, you, too, may have found that nothing effective is done and on inquiring you, also, might hear that noise control has a very low priority in the dispatch of officers. If you inquired of our Commissioner, Jose Rodriquez, as I did shortly after he was elected, you might have heard agreement on the question about the later limit on Sundays vs Fridays. In follow-up of the issue recently, I was sent a copy of a report on the tentative recommendation by a City based group. In addition to shifting the weekend night schedule from Sundays to Fridays, as I urged, they are suaaestina an extension of the limit for weekniahts to 11 :00 PM. I ask: If the City won't enforce the 10:00 PM limit-and, with available meters, do not regularly check the sound levels---what can we expect with an 11 :00 limit? Please join me in supporting the designation of New Year's Eve for a reasonable 1 :00 AM limit and Independence Day, and the nights before Labor Day, Thanksgiving, and Christmas for a midnight cutoff and continuation of the 10:00 PM limit for normal "weekdays," Sunday through Thursday.
