5. Communications and Announcements
Mr. Rumpf received an email from REG Architects, who were the architects and project
manager for the Old High School rehabilitation project. Tomorrow is the deadline for an
award application they want to submit. He shared the template for a letter of support
with Chair Ready. They were seeking awards for a 2021 Florida Preservation Award for
an adaptive reuse turning the building into a cultural arts hub for the City. It gave the
history of the building, which is on the Boynton Beach Registry of Historic Places. The

inside was adaptively reused and the exterior remained original. The building was on
the State's endangered list for several years. The Board had no objection to signing the
support letter.
Mr. Rumpf also advised the City was asked to partner with Harvey Oyer, III's efforts to
install a Charlie Pierce History Trail. A brochure was included detailing Mr. Oyer's
fundraising efforts for the improvements he would like to see. It would be similar to the
Downtown Trail and have trailhead kiosks and markers. The Historic Preservation
website would be updated for the Downtown Trail system referencing the Charlie Pierce
History Trail. There are current discussions about labeling the train in the brochure
tying it to the original train they had in the area and tying it to a replica scaled down
version of Charlie Pierce's home that he had in the area that would be placed at the
termination point of the trail, which was near the amphitheater. There was a possible
additional art component of items regarding water lands, upland scrub or wetland bird
species. The elements are taken from Harvey Oyer's, III children's book, "The Barefoot
Mailman and Charlie Pierce." Chair Ready believed the information is taught in the
fourth-grade student curriculums. She asked if there was a map and how long the trail
was. Mr. Rumpf explained all is just conceptual. It was a history trail not a walking trail.
He will apprise the Board about the effort as he learned about the effort recently. He
was asked to see if the former Historic Preservation Planner could assist with the matter
and he has not said no and he has helped Mr. Rumpf gain better access to him. When
they discuss strategizing, they would use Mr. Lowe's suggestion and look to see what
kind of intern resource they could use.
6. Old Business:
A. Historic plaques for designated properties (Informational Item) — Staff will
provide an update on the status of acquiring plaques for historic properties.
Mr. Rumpf advised they were working on a couple of plaques and he received a proof of
one of them. The Board had approved the proof so they will have something in hand by
the next meeting. The year 1925 is one of the more common dates of the most valuable
homes in the survey. A former Board member may be willing to purchase the plaque,
which was a little over$200. He requested Chair Ready approach the Historical Society
to see if they would make a partial or three-way payment. Mr. Rumpf will provide an
update and take pictures on posting the plaque on the first house in the City to the City
Commission. The plaque was a smaller plaque intended to be placed on homes. Ms.
Sexton had voiced support for the smaller 8 x 15 plaque. The A.5 plaque, which the
company recommended so the letters would not be so pressed was 10 x 20, and Mr.
Rumpf was curious to see how it would look. He thought the larger and more visible,
the better as long as it was to scale with the house. There was a mock up for the high
school plaque. Mr. Rumpf already started working with the same company and the
Board will need to approve the layout.

B. Rosenwald Schools (Informational Item)— Staff will provide the Board with
informational material on the Rosenwald Schools awareness program and status
of coordinating with former City Historian/Archivist Janet Devries Naughton and a
representative from the Jewish American Society for Historic Preservation in
obtaining and displaying a historic plaque near Poinciana Elementary School.
At the last meeting, there was a discussion about the placement of a Rosenwald
School plaque, a suggestion to feature more information and the Rosenwald School
program. He encouraged the members to read about Mr. Rosenwald and how he got
into the Sears company. The document was written by Janet DeVries. Board Member
Wright was also heading an effort to have a plaque recognizing the efforts of his
ancestors at Poinciana the school.
Mr. Rumpf explained the other plaque being presented is the Rosenwald School
Plaque. Mr. Rumpf explained a representative of the Jewish Society for history
preservation has been doing this throughout the State and they can get a State issued
plaque. They have been looking at this option, but there is a time delay as they review
them on a scheduled basis. They missed the first deadline for this option, but staff will
re-approach. He thought a local registry should be sufficient. There is more versatility
for the Rosenwald School. The meeting materials showed Rosenwald one side of it has
a map, and they would like to use that plaque for focus on the overall program in
addition to it focusing on the Poinciana area. Mr. Rumpf was not looking to the Board
as they have no funds. He spoke to the Public Works Director who may be able to
assist. He hoped it would have some similarities between the plaques. The members
talked about the layout. Staff tracked down the elementary school national designation
plaque in storage and will get installed soon.
Mr. Ramiccio asked when would be a good time to present a proposal to the City
Commission for the plaques and perhaps a couple thousand dollars. The City has a
Historic Resource Preservation Board and Ordinance and the Commission should find
value in investing in the plaques. He noted the plaques were on the agenda this year
and all of last year. Mr. Rumpf explained the City began the FY 21/22 budget process
about a month ago and he would be requesting funds. Mr. Ramiccio also commented
the City will need a survey, as some developments are turning over 50. He thought
amendments to the Code were needed so a demolition would come before a review
board, otherwise developers could come in and buy up the land. There should be a
cursory look by a Board and it can even be on the Consent Agenda.
Dr. Lowe commented they need to find out how much the City is getting from the Cares
Act as it would be a significant amount, and they need to be able to write the project into
the budget. This is an opportune time to hire another Historic Preservation Planner. He
noted Mr. Rumpf is wearing multiple hats. The Board meets every other month and
they need a driving force and push to get something in the budget. The Cares Act
funds do not have to be used until mid-2023.

Mr. Wilson suggested a survey as well. Old Boynton, Treasure Island, Venetian Isles,
and a few wood frame homes from the 1930s and 1940s. Chair Ready spoke with Mr.
Rumpf about using interns from the college for assistance updating the inventory. She
hoped that was something they could work out and requested the members make a list
of what a historic planner would do. There is a job description for a Historic Planner
position, but they need to justify it. It is beneficial to have a current survey and Mr.
Rumpf will also review the CLG requirements. Mr. Rumpf s focus with the limited
resources they have is the older homes, 1920's mission homes, some frame vernacular
and to renew public notification and update the public and new owners about the
program. Now that they have a plaque, they could send out a brochure or letter about
it. The City never had a plaque program. Mr. Rumpf could use an intern to update the
website. The framework of the existing program was poor. At the last meeting, the
members discussed the placement of the Rosenwald School Plaque near Poinciana
Elementary School, recognizing the historic action of getting the school built originally
as a colored school, and a debate followed. Additional information about the
Rosenwald School program was included in the meeting materials. He encouraged the
members to read the information to gain a better understanding of the program. Board
Member Wright was also in touch with the school officials about the efforts of his
ancestors regarding the school.
C. Historic Preservation Programming and the local Ordinance — Staff will
continue advancing the Board's awareness of the status of program
implementation, as well as prompt continued discussions on program direction by
featuring the prior attempt at establishing a historic district.
Mr. Rumpf wanted to bring up past efforts and listed the established registered
properties in the City and where they are mapped. He wanted to expand on this at the
next meeting expanding out the registered properties about other more notable City-
wide sites listed in the 1996 inventory. The idea behind a District is to place a boundary
and a set of rules in an area with a high concentration of homes. There was no notable
concentration, but one was initiated at the request of a property owner residing in the
area and the former Historic Preservation Planner attempted to establish that district,
which requires a vote of the property owners. Support materials for the prior effort was
reviewed.
They talked about strategizing where they wanted the program to go, funding, having a
dedicated staff person, a historic preservation planner and the use of interns. It will take
extra effort. The former City Historic Planner worked in concert with the FAU planning
program as students have to have internship hours. Dr. Lowe could find out how to get
involved. The person who did the last survey at the City, Dr. Sandra Norman, is still at
FAU and she is in charge of the intern program. She has done work in other
municipalities. She has classes that is individually run, but the interns and she works
with someone at the Historical Society or the City. She would work with Mr. Rumpf to
develop a program and she evaluates them based on reports and consultants with the
person overseeing the progress. The students in the program end up in public history

positions. When they are ready to move forward, she can address the Board or the City
Commission, or Dr. Lowe could be the conduit. It would have to work through a
semester system. The interns do not usually work during the summer. The interns do
not get paid, but a lot of them who do are offered paid internship or part-time positions
afterward. It may not be a bad idea if they ask for funding for internship support. They
could also use it for the materials to do the survey. Dr. Norman is a great person and
she works well with the point person for the agency. He noted FAU also hired a new
Public Historian who is reaching out to all the historical societies. She is interested in
African America History in Palm Beach County.
Mr. Ramiccio agreed a Historic Preservation Planner would be in charge of coordinating
interns. A dedicated planner to work daily on a survey would be beneficial. He
commented the education process before establishing historic districts was important.
He noted he has not seen any Certificates of Appropriateness while on the Board and
he thought many properties went away without a Board review. As to education, a good
education process is needed. It starts with a good story and the improvements they
could make are used as a carrot. It is comprehensive, and when it is put all together, the
program will offer property owners some improvements and investments and show
them the value they will get back. Staff would also have to implement the
recommendations about changes in doors and windows and it takes a lot of that takes a
lot of time. They need staff to manage the interns or the programs. He thought a
$100M budget could certainly fund a planner position for$100K to $200K. Dr. Lowe
agreed.
Chair Ready explained the Ordinance specifies they do not have the authority to stop a
historic demolition. Mr. Ramiccio understood, but he explained when a Board member
makes a comment, do not take it literally. Often people think if a Board Member is for
Historic Preservation, they are against development. There needs to be a mechanism in
place. He recalled the train station that was torn down 20 years ago. It was a signature
for what could have been a neat redevelopment. The Delray train station had a fire and
Delray said they are going to preserve it and the adaptive reuse is where the awards
come. Historic homes can blend in with new homes. He thought they needed to go in a
different direction. The agendas last year all pertained to the plaques. They can
implement a program. Taking pictures of a home before demolition is not Historic
Preservation. He could make recommendations and the Board could make
recommendation to the City Commission how the Ordinance could be amended. He
noted there were only nine properties. The program has to choose how to nominate the
homes. He wanted to change the nomination process so those who want to improve
properties can go to the website. He requested the members look at the definition of
historic in the Ordinance. The historic downtown is gone and only a few historic sights
remain. He thought there was a lot more history in the City. He repeated a survey
needs to be done on the west side of the community as there are a lot of little gems.
Mr. Ramiccio thought City staff needs to have a workshop to understand how the history
has evolved and what is good historic preservation. There was a disconnect between
5
Meeting Minutes

the program and the City Commission. He did not understand how the City could have a
program with no funds. it Ready explained the Ordinance was created by an Ad
Hoc Committee.
Chair Ready explained the members' homework was to make a list of why we need a
historic planner. Mr. Ramiccio thought they need to educate the Commission out
historic preservation and how it fits in with development. They do not want two factions
fighting with each other. Dr. Lowe asked when was the last time they met with the
Commission and discussed the matter. There is a board liaison, but no member of the
Commission was assigned as a liaison to the Board. Dr. Lowe thought there needs to
be education and communication. He asked when was the last time a Commissioner
attended a Historic Preservation meeting. Mr. Rumpf explained none oft Advisory
Boards have a Commissioner liaison.
Chair Ready explained they cannot go before the City Commission unprepared. The
Board needs a list to justify why the program is good, why they need a planner, and why
the Certified Local Government status is good for the City. They need their ducks in a
row. Mr. Ramicclo explained they need a story. They need to be part of understanding
history and how it fits in with redevelopment. It can increase the tax base and have
downtown
Mr. Wilson asked what would be the best way to proceed. Mr. Ramiccio thought the
first meeting should be a PowerPoint presentation by a local historian with the story of
Boynton Beach. It improves property values and how itshould correlate it with the tax
base. It could correlate tot budget. They can tell little stories like Charlie Pierce that
could be woven into a larger fabric aft City. They could do more with the program,
especially with the changing of doors and windows and Certificate of Appropriateness.
With the new Cottage District, they presented a square box with a window and a door, if
nobody cares about the design of the home, this is what we get. A Cottage District
should reflect a Cottage District. He questioned whether the Board could conduct a
Certificate of Appropriateness fort project. There is a lot of work that can be done
and there is a lot of value in historic preservation. The City has evolved.
Mr. Rumpf advised the points made at the meeting have reinvigorated him and National
Preservation month is coming up. They could make some type of presentation. They
should put something together tot advantage of the moment. He was happy the
Cottage District will return tot CRA. Planning staff conducted a preliminary design
review and offered very good recommendations to prevent it from looking like regular
homes. One proposal had great looking models. They will try to assert some influence
on that. Dr. Lowe noted Dr. Norman and Jane Day conducted the 1996 survey and they
have their own consulting business.
Discussion followed about using interns. Dr. Lowe did not think interns would not be
working over the summer, sat first real use of interns would likely be August. Mr.
Rumpf thought he could reintroduce himself to Dr. Norman. Dr. Lowe explained he is

Boynton Beach, Florida March 8, 2021
the Chair of the department. He will provide the email address to Mr. Rumpf. He
thought she could team up with the Board and help craft a presentation. They need
advice and could use interns. It could create awareness, education and funding.
7. New Business:
A. None
Dr. Lowe was in the Old High School for the kinetic art event and they had tours of the
school. There are a lot of rooms and he thought they could recreate an old classroom
from when the high school was started. There is history in the old high school that they
tried architecturally to keep. The building is a centerpiece in the downtown, but there is
nothing historic in it. He thought they could put a sign in there that talks about the
historic nature. Mr. Rumpf explained they did that at the elementary school museum.
Chair Ready thought all the rooms were used except for a small room for a sandwich
shop or cafe. It would be nice to have a piece of history. They could put up posters or
have artifacts. Something more historical would be nice as an orientation to the history
of the City. In the future, if rooms are not being used, they could create a small
museum or recreate a classroom. Chair Ready thought the City Archivist may have
items on display in the Library they could use. She also thought the members should
attend the City Commission meeting on May 41h for the Historic Preservation Month
Proclamation.

I
In 1912,Tuskegee Institute founder Booker T.Washington invited Jewish-
American philanthropist Julius Rosenwald to serve on the Tuskegee board
of directors to help African-American education,where rural,segregated
southern schools suffered from inadequate facilities and books.
Rosenwald's 1917 school building fund encouraged local collaboration
between blacks and whites by providing seed money and requiring
€' communities to raise matching funds. Between 1917 and 1932, Rosenwald
funded 5,357 community schools and industrial shops in 15 southern
! states. 1
Palm Beach County's first Rosenwald-funded school was the Boynton
Colored School, constructed in 1925-26 and renamed Poinciana School in
1960.School Superintendent Joe Youngblood petitioned the Rosenwald
Fund for emergency monies after the devastating September 1928
hurricane that left the Boynton school intact but damaged or leveled most
other PBC schools. By 1931 Rosenwald schools and industrial trade shops
were operating in Jupiter, Boca Raton, Delray Beach (shop),West Palm
Beach (school,shop), Pahokee, Belle Glade,South Bay, Kelsey City, and
Canal Point (school, library). -
