REGULAR AGENDA: 9.A.A. BID PROTEST/WESTWAY TOWING INC.: Consider a bid protest filed by Westway Towing Inc. regarding wrecker/towing services for the Police Department; Request for Proposal (RFP) No. 2009-06. (Quasi-Judicial Hearing) The City Attorney stated this item should be conducted as aQuasi-Judicial Hearing. Mayor Ellis read the City of Delray Beach procedures for aQuasi-Judicial Hearing into the record for this item and all subsequent Quasi-Judicial items. Chevelle D. Nubin, City Clerk, swore in those individuals who wished to give testimony on this item. Mayor Ellis asked the Commission to disclose their ex parte communications. Mr. McDuffie stated he has met with Attorney Michael Weiner and the owner of Westway and had a package delivered to his home from Weiner, Aronson & Mankoff, P.A., and received a telephone call from Attorney David Schmidt. Mr. Bernard and Mayor Ellis both stated that they too met with Attorney Michael Weiner and the owner of Westway and had a package delivered to their homes and received a telephone call from Attorney David Schmidt. Mr. Eliopoulos stated he too met with Attorney Michael Weiner and the owner of Westway and had a package delivered to his home from Weiner, Aronson & Mankoff, P.A. Mr. Eliopoulos stated approximately one month ago he also received a telephone call from David Schmidt. Mr. Fetzer stated he also met with Attorney Michael Weiner regarding Westway Towing. Brian Shutt, Assistant City Attorney, entered the Agenda backup into the record and stated this is a bid protest that was filed by Westway Towing in regards to the Police Towing service bid. Mr. Shutt stated in accordance with the City's bid protest procedures the City received the protest and filed a response to the protest. He stated the protest is a requirement in the City's bid specifications that required a bidder to meet certain minimum requirements and one of those minimum requirements was that they were conducting a towing business in Palm Beach County during the previous two years. -6- 02/17/09 Mr. Shutt stated when the bids were collected the Selection Committee looked at that and determined that they had not been conducting a towing business for a minimum of two years in Palm Beach County and City staff concurs with that recommendation as well as Officer Finley with the Police Department and Patsy Nadal, Acting Purchasing Manager. Michael Weiner, Attorney with Weiner, Aronson & Mankoff, P.A., 10 S.E. lgt Avenue, Delray Beach, stated there are a number of matters that are in contention. Mr. Weiner stated the first matter has to do with the experience requirement under the RFP (Request for Proposal) and noted that this has been changed four times in two business days and noted that a geographic requirement has been added. Mr. Weiner stated the last change in the experience requirement was taken from one simple benchmark to a complicated set of benchmarks. He stated it is actually a two prong test; the first one is "Are you regularly engaged in the towing business?" and the second is "Whether you have supplied similar services". Mr. Weiner stated the explanation from the Purchasing Department is that this would actually increase the number of bids; however, they find no information whatsoever as to how they determined that atwo- prong test with this complexity would actually increase bids. He stated it begs any level of credibility that this change was an improvement to the RFP (Request for Proposal) when you consider that five companies made a bid and only two qualified. Mr. Weiner stated they gave an unfair competitive advantage to Beck's Towing which was one of only two bidders that ultimately qualified. He stated Westway was doing this through the open responders program and Westway has been and continues to take calls on the Florida Turnpike in Palm Beach County so it is giving similar services. Mr. Weiner referenced towing tickets for Westway Towing vehicles hired by the City of Delray Beach and noted that it appears the present contractor was unable to tow the large vehicles and therefore Westway was asked to be the towing company for these larger vehicles in the City. He referenced the scoring sheets and stated Westway would not charge for road calls. Mr. Weiner stated the estimated savings is in excess of $25,000.00 and that makes Westway bid $172,500.00 which is more than the Beck's bid. He stated this is mentioned on the scoring sheets; however, Westway was never given credit for this and noted that this is unfair advantage #2. Mr. Weiner stated the documented response times for Westway Towing equal or exceed Beck's. Mr. Weiner made reference to the tow vehicle inspection forms from Palm Beach County verifying that there were eight vehicles that were qualified in Palm Beach County not four. He stated to score based upon the fact that there were fewer vehicles available was incorrect and is an unfair competitive advantage to score otherwise. Mr. Weiner stated the last place where there was an unfair competitive advantage concerns Mr. Goldstein's driver's license and incorrectly there was an assumption that his license was revoked. Mr. Weiner stated he does not think there is one set of rules for one bidder and another set of rules for another bidder. Mr. Weiner stated that the bid process is giving an unfair competitive advantage to the present bid holder and urged the City Commission to address the situation and award the bid to Westway. Mayor Ellis stated if anyone from the public would like to speak in favor or in opposition of the bid protest, to please come forward at this time. -7- 02/17/09 David Floering, owner of Eastern Towing, stated he did not participate in this project because he knew that it was geared toward Beck's Towing. He stated the whole process is flawed and both companies Beck's and Westway employ an ambulance chaser type business model where when the company gets the call for the tow their intent is try and get the job for the body shop. Mr. Floering stated this is how they make the money to pay the franchise fee not from the towing. Mr. Floering entered a Court document into the record of an incident that happened at Westway's tow yard three months ago and suggested that the City reject the entire process because it is flawed. He stated everything is designed for Beck's Towing and suggested that the City use a rotational system which is fair and honest. He stated the City will lose its franchise fee but it is a fair way to do business. Pauline Moody, 609 S.W. 8t'' Avenue, Delray Beach, expressed concern over the tow bid and suggested that the City do away with both bids in all fairness. Ms. Moody stated when someone gets into an accident people have the right to select the towing company they want. David Schmidt, Attorney reuresentin~ Beck's Towing, stated Westway submitted documentation to show that it had an interest in Open Road Responders, LLC which has the towing contract for the turnpike. Mr. Schmidt stated under Florida law Open Road Responders, LLC is recognized as a separate entity from Westway Towing and the fact that Westway may have an interest in that company does not prove that it is doing towing in Palm Beach County. Mr. Schmidt stated Mr. Weiner is trying to manipulate the bid after the bids were submitted and noted that the bid documents clearly define what the franchise fee is and how the points are going to be scored. He stated the franchise fee is the payment to the City and is not forgiveness of some charge or not charging something else. Mr. Schmidt stated if Westway wanted to include that in its bid then they should have and urged the Commission to follow staff's recommendation and deny the bid protest. There being no one else who wished to address the Commission regarding the bid protest, the public hearing was closed. There was no cross-examination. Mr. Shutt gave the following rebuttal: Mr. Shutt asked Patsy Nadal, Acting Purchasing Manager, if Beck's Towing met all the requirements as far as an original and a copy when they submitted their bid. Ms. Nadal stated Beck's Towing submitted one binder that contained two bids in it. She stated at the bid openings staff usually takes out the first copy and reads it because staff only needs one copy to read. Staff reads the bid and goes back to their office to make sure everything is in order. -8- 02/17/09 Officer Jim Finley stated response times were submitted by each vendor that submitted a bid packet. He referenced Section 3 of Westway's towing packet which states "our response time because of our ability to keep trucks in the City of Delray should be 25 minutes." and noted that this is what staff had to go by. Officer Finley stated on January 7, 2009, when staff did the actual inspections of the companies, Mr. Goldstein presented him with a second package that had certificates and other response times which this information was supposed to be submitted at the original date of bid openings on December 15, 2008. Officer Finley expressed concern over the "no charge for road calls" and it was not until January 7, 2009 (day of inspection) did Mr. Goldstein present a letter stating that he would tow City vehicles for free which is already in the bid packets. He stated as a committee they could not consider the things that were submitted a month later because it would have been unfair to the other companies who submitted all of their information on time. Mr. Weiner gave the following rebuttal: Mr. Weiner stated the Commission has the right to award the purchase in the best interest of the City. As to the exact time that the "free" services were given they were on the scoring sheet and were never counted. He stated the City has all rights to reject all bids or to work with bidders. Mr. Weiner stated an "LLC" is apass-through type of company and there are no trucks owned by Open Road Responders and is something they have to do for the Florida turnpike and noted that Westway was the company that was on the seen and they were doing towing services for the City for those years. Mr. Weiner stated there are other unfair competitive advantages and if some of them exist then that is enough to reconsider the bids tonight. Mr. Weiner urged the Commission to reconsider this process and rule in favor of Westway or alternatively consider another proposal such as a rotational system. Mr. Bernard asked why the City chose the two-year requisite for having to tow in Palm Beach County for two years. Mr. Shutt stated it is his understanding that if you look at some of the bid documents in the past the City started out in the 2004 documents with approximately a five year experience requirement and in an addendum to that bid the City then modified it to a three year experience requirement because the City wanted to make sure that they did not unfairly exclude any bidders. Mr. Shutt stated when the City came to bid this go around in the 2008 bid which is the first go around of this 2009 bid, staff had language in the bid where you have to be towing in Palm Beach County for two years with a one year requirement that you be towing in the storage area. This requirement was removed because staff felt it would be too restrictive and therefore stayed with the two years. Mr. Shutt stated staff felt that two years would give adequate amount of time to review a company's history and to make sure that a company had a history of towing especially in Palm Beach County. Mr. Bernard asked who made the decision. Mr. Shutt stated the City Attorney's office along with the Police Department. Mr. Bernard asked if staff could take a look at how the person performed in Broward County. Mr. Shutt stated if there were records there then staff probably could have done this. -9- 02/17/09 Mr. Bernard inquired about Beck's response time for the City of Delray Beach. Officer Finley stated the reported response time to accidents in the City of Delray Beach is 11 minutes. Mr. Bernard stated in Mr. Finley's email dated January 20, 2009 he did a check on Mr. Goldstein's driver's license but if he did not want to consider anything else in regards to the documents that he provided, why was it necessary to know if his license was suspended or not. In response, Officer Finley stated whenever the Police Department is dealing with a new contractor there is a background check that is performed and noted that there was a background check performed on all the owners for all bids. Mr. McDuffie stated the City does four major contracts a year (beach, waste, and towing) and the beach contract and the towing contract have drawn criticism and contention. He expressed concern over this along with some of the things that Commissioner Mackenson has expressed. Mr. McDuffie stated if the City is going to background check someone it would seem that it would be part of the bid package so that everyone realizes when they submit a bid into our municipality that they are going to get a background check. Mr. McDuffie stated the Commission had previously discussed that a big package like this should be on a Workshop Meeting before it is released so that the Commission understood what was in the bid before the bid hit the street to help avoid situations that they are now in tonight. Mr. McDuffie expressed concern that the City is releasing documents in which we do not particularly stipulate every requirement that is going to be analyzed in that document. Mr. Eliopoulos briefly discussed the two-year requirement and stated this was to find out how somebody worked within the County but also them being familiar with the City's roads and he assumes that when you are familiar with the roads you are going to get a quicker response time as opposed to someone who is out of the area. Mr. Shutt stated this was the logic behind the two-year requirement. With regard to Mr. Weiner's comments about "free services" that have a value to it, Mr. Eliopoulos stated if this is a requirement for everybody wouldn't Beck's number go up. Mr. Shutt stated the bid is pretty specific because you put a number in and you have to tow the City's vehicles for free. Mr. Eliopoulos asked why the other two bids were thrown out. Ms. Nadal stated Purchasing does not allow being on their selection committee. Officer Finley stated Gardens towing did not have a Class "B" tow truck which is part of the City's requirements and they are located in Lake Worth which is north of Hypoluxo Road. He stated they bought a building in Boynton and he has a letter from the City of Boynton that the building is not fit to be moved into yet. Officer Finley stated the other company did not have the facility to store the cars the Police Department requires them to store and they did not have two of the two trucks that were required. Mr. Eliopoulos inquired about the rotation system and asked why the City feels that this is the better way to go. Officer Finley stated about 18 years ago they did have a rotation wrecker and there were 5 or 6 rotation wreckers and noted it was acut-throat business. He stated they would race each other to accident scenes and see who could get the most expensive car involved in that crash and it was a nightmare for dispatch to keep track of. -10- 02/17/09 Brief discussion continued between the Commission and staff. Mayor Ellis asked Mr. Shutt if he feels the way we have done this bid and how it has been handled and processed that has got us to the point that the City is at right now was the best that we could do. Mr. Shutt stated with each bid you can always do better because you always learn something from every time you go out to bid. Mayor Ellis asked Mr. Shutt if he thinks there is anything that would have improved the processing of this particular bid there is a fundamental difference between bidders who want a rotation system and the Police Department that does not want a rotation system. Mayor Ellis asked how long Officer Finley has been dealing with the towing company Beck's. Officer Finley stated he has been dealing with the towing company for the last four years. Brief discussion followed between Officer Finley and Mayor Ellis. Mr. Fetzer commented about how the Commission talked about discussion of these major bids at a Workshop Meeting particularly on the more controversial bids to get some common understanding between the staff and the Commission about what the Commission's overall goals are. Mr. Fetzer stated he met one-on-one with Officer Finley, the City Attorney, and Patsy Nadal from Purchasing and talked in depth about the pros and cons of the rotation system versus not rotating. Mr. Fetzer stated he was comfortable at that point that they had put together a plan to bid this where it was not going generate all this controversy. He stated we have a responsibility to keep this whole process as fair and precise as we possibly can. Mr. Fetzer asked if the City followed the legal process with the bid properly. Mr. Shutt stated that the City followed the proper legal process and noted that the disqualification of Westway Towing was based on the fact that they were not an operating business in Palm Beach County for two previous years and was not based on anything else. The City Attorney briefly reviewed the Board Order with the Commission who made findings according to their consensus (attached hereto is a copy and made an official part of the minutes). Mr. Fetzer moved to adopt the Board Order as presented (denying the bid protest), seconded by Mr. Eliopoulos. Upon roll call the Commission voted as follows: Mr. Fetzer -Yes; Mr. McDuffie - No; Mr. Bernard - No; Mayor Ellis -Yes; Mr. Eliopoulos -Yes. Said motion DENYING the bid protest was passed with a 3 to 2 vote, Commissioner McDuffie and Commissioner Bernard dissenting. 9.E.1. Contract award to Beck's Towing & Recovery, Inc. with annual franchise fees to be uaid to the City in the amount of $162,400.00 for wrecker/towing services for the Police Deuartment. (Addendum) -11- 02/17/09 Mr. Fetzer moved to approve the Contract Award to Beck's Towing & Recovery, Inc., seconded by Mr. Eliopoulos. Upon roll call the Commission voted as follows: Mr. McDuffie -Yes; Mr. Bernard - No; Mayor Ellis -Yes; Mr. Eliopoulos - Yes; Mr. Fetzer -Yes. Said motion passed with a 4 to 1 vote, Commissioner Bernard dissenting. At this point, the time being 7:40 p.m., the Commission moved to the duly advertised Public Hearings portion of the Agenda. 10. PUBLIC HEARINGS: 10.A. ORDINANCE NO. 06-09 (FIRST READING/FIRST PUBLIC HEARING): Consider an ordinance providing for the reclassification of twenty (20) properties in the Marina Historic District. If passed, a second public hearing will be held on March 3, 2009. The caption of Ordinance No. 06-09 (Version 1) is as follows: ORDINANCE NO. 06-09 (Version 1) AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF DELRAY BEACH, FLORIDA, PROVIDING FOR THE RECLASSIFICATION OF 20 PROPERTIES IN THE MARINA HISTORIC DISTRICT, PROVIDING A GENERAL REPEALER CLAUSE, A SAVING CLAUSE, AND AN EFFECTNE DATE. The caption of Ordinance No. 06-09 (Version 2) is as follows: ORDINANCE NO. 06-09 (Version 2) office.) AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF DELRAY BEACH, FLORIDA, PROVIDING FOR THE RECLASSIFICATION OF 19 PROPERTIES IN THE MARINA HISTORIC DISTRICT, PROVIDING A GENERAL REPEALER CLAUSE, A SAVING CLAUSE, AND AN EFFECTNE DATE. (The official copy of Ordinance No. 06-09 is on file in the City Clerk's For the record, Mr. Eliopoulos stated with regard to Version 1 and Version 2, Version 2 talks about a house that he was the architect of; however, he does not have contact with that client anymore. He stated he did the carriage house in the front but there is no continuing relationship there. -12- 02/17/09 The City Attorney read the captions of both ordinances. A public hearing was held having been legally advertised in compliance with the laws of the State of Florida and the Charter of the City of Delray Beach, Florida. Mr. Eliopoulos stated this house is a historic Fontaine Fox house (238 S.E. 7~ Avenue). He stated the district came in approximately 1986 and in 1998 the house was renovated (an addition was put on). Mr. Eliopoulos stated that the exterior windows and doors are still within the house. Ron Hoggard, AICP, Principal Planner, stated the City hired GAI Consultants, Inc. to conduct a survey from April-June 2008 and accepted the final survey report from them by resolution on December 9, 2008. Mr. Hoggard stated the difference in these two ordinances is the one property 238 S.E. 7~ Avenue. He stated the survey report and what the Commission accepted in the resolution was to do designate 19 properties from non-contributing to contributing and designate one property from contributing to non-contributing. Mr. Hoggard stated the survey report stated that the property should be reclassified because it was no longer contributing due to inappropriate new construction on the property and that the new construction book dominated and completely obscured the original one-story historic structure. At its meeting of February 10, 2009, the Historic Preservation Board (HPB) reviewed Ordinance No. 06-09 and recommended approval of Version #2 which is to retain the 238 S.E. 7~ Avenue building as contributing. The Downtown Development Authority (DDA) recommended approval of Version #1 but in actuality the property in question is not in the DDA district. Mr. Hoggard stated he presented this to the Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) and he did not review individual versions because the property is not in the CRA district. Staff recommends accepting Version #1 which follows the survey report that the City had the consultant accomplish and the resolution that the Commission passed in December 2008. Mr. Hoggard stated the reason for this is that we are increasing the period of significance for historic structures that ended in 1943-1960 to add post-war construction and that is what is adding the additional structures that make them contributing. Mayor Ellis declared the public hearing open. Joann Peart, 107 N.W. 9t'' Street, Delray Beach, stated she believes the original Fontaine Fox cottage is still there but is partially covered up in the front by an addition. She stated if you took the 1990's additions off you would still have the Fontaine Fox cottage. Mrs. Peart stated the whole inside of the cottage is still the same and all the exterior windows are still there and the reason the owner built the addition separate from the house was to leave what was left of the Fontaine Fox cottage visible and in tact. The owner came before HPB because they were in a historic district and applied for the historic abatement relief and was granted that by the Board. In her opinion, Mrs. Peart stated this is not a good precedent to set to tell someone that they have to build the addition separate from the building that is there because what is there is historic and then the owner comes back in and applies for the historic tax relief credit and -13- 02/17/09 then later they are told they are no longer in the district and the tax relief credit that was granted is no longer correct anymore. She noted that the Fontaine Fox House is very historic and if you took the 1990's addition off it you would still have the whole cottage there. Mrs. Peart stated HPB was completely in agreement with everything else and they were all in agreement with this point as well. She stated she believes the people who live there want to staff and keep their tax relief too. Joe Snider, 1010 N.E. 8t'' Avenue, Delray Beach (Architect with a Masters Degree in Historic Preservation), commended the City for continuing to re- evaluate and revisit the historic districts and to revisit the periods of significance to keep incorporating and understand the historic progression of the City. Mr. Snider reiterated Mrs. Peart's point that putting an addition onto a structure does not necessarily destroy its significance but it is when you start knocking things down in the existing structure. There being no one else from the public who wished to address the Commission regarding Ordinance No. 06-09, the public hearing was closed. Prior to the vote, Mr. Fetzer asked Mr. Hoggard to identify where the property is located. Mr. Fetzer stated if we pass Version #2 would this cause any complications from staff's perspective. Mr. Hoggard stated staff is trying to follow the recommendations of the survey report per the consultant. Mr. McDuffie asked if the occupant of 238 S.E. 7~ Avenue maintains a historic exemption on the home. Mr. Hoggard stated the occupant has a tax payment. Mr. Eliopoulos moved to approve Ordinance No. 06-09 (Version #2) on First Reading/First Public Hearing, seconded by Mr. Bernard. Upon roll call the Commission voted as follows: Mr. McDuffie -Yes; Mr. Bernard -Yes; Mayor Ellis - Yes; Mr. Eliopoulos -Yes; Mr. Fetzer -Yes. Said motion passed with a 5 to 0 vote. 10.B. ORDINANCE NO. 07-09 (FIRST READING/FIRST PUBLIC HEARING): A city initiated amendment to the Land Development Regulations (LDR) Section 4.4.9 (G), "Supplemental District Regulations", and Section 4.4.13 (G) (1), "Central Core and Beach Area Supplemental Regulations", to change the parking requirements for business and professional offices within certain portions of these zoning districts. If passed, a second public hearing will beheld on March 3, 2009. The caption of Ordinance No. 07-09 is as follows: AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF DELRAY BEACH, FLORIDA, AMENDING THE LAND DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS OF THE CODE OF ORDINANCES, BY AMENDING SECTION 4.4.9, "GENERAL COMMERCIAL (GC) DISTRICT", SUBSECTION (G) "SUPPLEMENTAL DISTRICT REGULATIONS", AND -14- 02/17/09 SECTION 4.4.13, "CENTRAL BUSINESS (CBD) DISTRICT", SUBSECTION (G) "SUPPLEMENTAL DISTRICT REGULATIONS", SUB-SUBSECTION (1) CENTRAL CORE AND BEACH AREA SUPPLEMENTAL REGULATIONS", TO CHANGE THE PARKING REQUIREMENTS FOR BUSINESS AND PROFESSIONAL OFFICES WHITHIN CERTAIN PORTIONS OF THESE ZONING DISTRICTS; PROVIDING A SAVING CLAUSE, A GENERAL REPEALER CLAUSE, AND AN EFFECTNE DATE. office.) (The official copy of Ordinance No. 07-09 is on file in the City Clerk's The City Attorney read the caption of the ordinance. A public hearing was held having been legally advertised in compliance with the laws of the State of Florida and the Charter of the City of Delray Beach, Florida. Ron Hoggard, AICP, Principal Planner, stated staff received a memo from the Chamber of Commerce Economic Development Committee outlining some proposals to change the City's parking requirements for office development in Delray Beach. Mr. Hoggard stated several of the recommendations were included in an LDR text amendment adopted by the City Commission on January 20, 2009. Another proposal of that Committee was to expand the area on the Federal Highway corridor between 5~ and 6~ Avenues where the parking requirement for offices would be reduced to 1 space per 300 square feet of net floor area instead of the requirement that it is now. He stated the impact of this reduces the parking requirement for office development and has more of an impact on smaller buildings than it does on larger buildings because the requirement for parking changes (4 spaces per 1,000 square feet of net floor area up to 3,000 square feet and then 3.5 spaces per 1,000 square feet). Mr. Hoggard stated the parking requirement of a 10,000 square foot office building will be reduced by 4 spaces (from 37 parking spaces to 33 parking spaces) and when you get buildings that are much larger there is very little change in the parking requirement. Staff feels this will have a big impact on allowing additions to smaller office buildings in the downtown area with minimal impact on the parking requirement. At its meeting of January 26, 2009, the Planning and Zoning Board recommended approval with a 5 to 0 vote (Miller absent and Pike stepped down). The Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) and the Downtown Development Authority (DDA) recommended approval of the proposed text amendment. The Parking Management Advisory Board (PMAB) will not meet until February 24, 2009 and staff will report their recommendation to the Commission a second reading. Staff recommends approval on First Reading. Mayor Ellis declared the public hearing open. -15- 02/17/09 Joe Snider, 1010 N.E. 8t'' Avenue, Delray Beach (Architect with a Masters Degree in Historic Preservation), stated one of the things the Commission wanted to do was to go green and reduce parking requirements. He stated in green buildings they try to put in less parking because paving and parking creates more stormwater runoff and it creates more incentive for people to find alternative means of transportation. Mr. Snider supports this ordinance and feels this would be a good thing. There being no one from the public who wished to address the Commission regarding Ordinance No. 07-09, the public hearing was closed. Mr. Fetzer moved to approve Ordinance No. 07-09 on First Reading/First Public Hearing, seconded by Mr. McDuffie.

At this point, the Commission moved to Item 11, Comments and Inquires on Non-Agenda Items from the City Manager and the Public. 11.A. City Manager's resuonse to urior uublic comments and inquiries. The City Manager stated in January 2009 Ms. Moody had registered a complaint about street lighting in the vicinity of the cemetery and complained that some of the lighting was not working and the area was dark. He stated staff has checked the aerial lighting on S.W. 8th Avenue near the cemetery and at the time staff checked, all the existing lighting was working and met City standards for lumens and spacing. The City Manager stated by City policy a lumen level in a residential area can be increased if the City receives a petition to do so from a majority of the property owners in the area affected and staff has notified Ms. Moody of that. Secondly, in January 2009, the City Manager stated Mrs. Finst had raised some questions about the CVS Pharmacy Office/Depot property and a proposal sometime in the past for a review committee regarding the North Federal Highway area. The Planning and Zoning staff does not have any recollection of a discussion for a committee to be formed to review that area again. The City Manager stated the City has also received plans this afternoon for review for official certification for the CVS and the architectural elevations as well as the site plan were already approved by SPRAB (Site Plan Review and Appearance Board) so any future committee that might look at this will not impact this current project providing it either becomes vested or is granted an extension. 11. From the Public. -18- 02/17/09 11.B.1. Ken MacNamee, 1049 Del Haven Drive, Delray Beach, stated he sent the City Commission a five page report regarding the garbage issue. He stated he received an email today telling him that the Commission has not had enough time to review it. Mr. MacNamee referenced his first recommendation on page 4 of the report and stated he would like an answer from the City Commission. 11.B.2. Robert Kuhn, 531 N.W. 13th Street, Delray Beach, current Commander of Veterans of Foreign Wars at Post 4141 chartered in this city on June 21, 1945 and a resident of the City of Delray Beach since 1979, expressed concern over the parking problems due to the construction of Worthing Place, the remodeling of the former Atlantic Avenue Eye Care Center and the former City Limits property. He stated since the construction has begun they have lost the use of five handicapped parking spaces within a 250 foot radius of their property and are faced with dilemma of hazard and unhealthy conditions being created by this progress. Mr. Kuhn pleaded with the Commission to help them through this difficult time with respect to parking and health issues that are and will be prevalent for quite some time to come. 11.B.3. Alice Finst. 707 Place Tavant. Delray Beach, renresentin~ the Atlantic High School Advisory Council (SAC), stated on March 21, 2009 crossing guards and police patrol will be eliminated for the students coming out of Atlantic High School and entering Atlantic High School. Mrs. Finst stated this is a serious safety issue and asked that this matter be looked into. Secondly, Mrs. Finst stated she attends the SPRAB meetings and they have been very quick because there are only 1-2 items on the Agenda and the meeting for this week is cancelled. She made reference to a magazine that talks about building permit fees going from $1,700,000.00 to $2,000,000.00 and asked where the money is coming from if nothing is going through SPRAB for this proposal. She stated the proposed numbers do not match with the reality of where we are today. 11.B.4. Glenn Goss, resident of the City of Delray Beach, briefly discussed a recent article in Forbes Magazine where his name is associated with a story about public pension plans in the most negative way. Mr. Goss stated because the article seems to have become a fervent topic for discussion amongst various homeowners associations, the political arena and many forums in between, he believes it is incumbent for him to comment on the matter at this time. He provided a detailed written response for the Commission and the public. 11.B.5. Mike McCleary. Delray Beach Firef~hters (District Vice President of the Local Union), stated Jim Tabeek will be taking his place at the beginning of March. Mr. McCleary stated there has been a very troubled relationship between the Fire-Rescue Department Union and the City Commission. Mr. McCleary addressed the alleged comments made by Mr. Harden in the newspaper. 12. FIRST READINGS: None -19- 02/17/09 At this point, the time being 8:22 p.m., the Commission moved to Item 9.A.A.A.A. of the Regular Agenda. 9.A.A.A.A. REVIEW OF APPEALABLE LAND DEVELOPMENT BOARD ACTIONS (HISTORIC PRESERVATION BOARD, ITEM #2): Accept the actions and decisions made by the Land Development Boards for the period February 2, 2009 through February 13, 2009. Commissioner Eliopoulos declared that he was originally the architect for one of the properties. Mr. Bernard moved to receive and file the report as to Item 8.L. (HPB #2), seconded by Mr. Eliopoulos. Upon roll call the Commission voted as follows: Mr. Fetzer -Yes; Mr. McDuffie -Yes; Mr. Bernard -Yes; Mayor Ellis -Yes; Mr. Eliopoulos -Yes. Said motion passed with a 5 to 0 vote. 9.A. WAIVER REQUESTS/TASTE RESTATURANT: Consider two (2) waiver requests, one to Land Development Regulation (LDR) Section 4.6.16(H)(3)(J), "New Multiple Family, Commercial, and Industrial Development", which requires a five (5) foot wide landscape island at the end of a ten (10) space parking row, and the other to Land Development Regulation (LDR) Section 4.6.14(A)(1), "Visibility at Intersections", which requires that a 20' sight triangle is provided at the intersection of the handicap parking space and the east alley driveway in association with the Taste Restaurant located at 169-171 N.E. 2nd Avenue. (Quasi-Judicial Hearing) Chevelle D. Nubin, City Clerk, swore in those individuals who wished to give testimony on this item. Mayor Ellis asked the Commission to disclose their ex parte communications. The Commission had no ex parte communications to disclose. Ron Hoggard, AICP, Principal Planner, entered the Planning and Zoning Department project file #2009-037 into the record. Mr. Hoggard stated this is for the City Commission to approve two waivers associated with Taste Restaurant which was approved by the Site Plan Review and Appearance (SPRAB) on January 14, 2009 and the Board also recommended approval of both waivers. One waiver is to LDR Section 4.6.16(H)(3)(i) which requires a five (5) foot wide landscape island at the end of a 10 space parking row. The development proposal does not comply with either of these requirements, and thus, the applicant ahs requested the waivers. Mr. Hoggard stated pursuant to LDR Section 2.4.7(B)(5) prior to granting a waiver the approving body must make a finding that granting the waiver (1) shall not adversely affect the neighborhood area, (2) shall not significantly diminish the provision of public facilities, (3) shall not create an unsafe situation, and (4) does not result in the grant of a special privilege. This overall project is supported by SPRAB, the CRA, DDA as well as Pineapple Grove Main Street. -20- 02/17/09 The second waiver involves the site visibility triangle to LDR Section 4.6.14(A)(1) which requires that a 20 foot sight triangle is provided at the intersection of the handicap parking space and the east alley driveway. The findings for this waiver are the same as the other waiver and the City has supported waivers of this type for other projects in the CBD district. Mr. Hoggard stated this was reviewed by SPRAB, the CRA, DDA, and Pineapple Grove Main Street and they all recommended approval. Staff recommends approval of the waiver to the landscape strips going from five feet to four feet for the southern portion of the handicap parking space and zero (0) feet on the northern portion of the handicap parking space and the visibility triangle from 20 feet to 2 feet. For the record, Mr. Hoggard noted a correction to the LDR Section and stated it should read LDR Section 4.6.16(H)(3)(J) not LDR Section 4.6.16(H)(3)(i). Bob Currie, 134 N.E. 1st Avenue, Delray Beach (Architect for the ro'ect ,stated the 2 foot diameter concrete pole is actually two feet into the alley and all the more reason that nobody is going to be zooming out of there. He stated he feels this will be safe. Mayor Ellis stated if anyone from the public would like to speak in favor or in opposition of the waiver requests, to please come forward at this time. There being no one from the public who wished to address the Commission regarding the waiver requests, the public hearing was closed. There was no cross-examination or rebuttal. The City Attorney briefly reviewed the Board Order with the Commission who made findings according to their consensus (attached hereto is a copy and made an official part of the minutes). Mr. Bernard asked why there was a change to the landscape island on the north side from two (2) feet to zero (0) feet. In response, Mr. Hoggard stated SRAB the report was considering this area here as the landscape strip but that is not how it is measured because it has to be parallel with the parking space. Mr. Hoggard stated the Planning Director caught this error and corrected it. Mr. Bernard moved to adopt the Board Order as presented, seconded by Mr. McDuffie. Upon roll call the Commission voted as follows: Mr. McDuffie -Yes; Mr. Bernard -Yes; Mayor Ellis -Yes; Mr. Eliopoulos -Yes; Mr. Fetzer -Yes. Said motion passed with a 5 to 0 vote. 9.B. THIS ITEM HAS BEEN WITHDRAWN FROM THE AGENDA. 9.C. WAIVER REQUEST/SAVOR THE AVENUE: Consider a waiver request to Land Development Regulations (LDR) Section 4.6.7(F)(3)(f), "Special Event Non-Roadway Banner Signing", to allow banners to be hung more than fourteen (14) days prior to Savor the Avenue being held March 26, 2009. (Quasi-Judicial Hearing) -21 - 02/17/09 Chevelle D. Nubin, City Clerk, swore in those individuals who wished to give testimony on this item. Mayor Ellis asked the Commission to disclose their ex parte communications. The Commission had no ex parte communications to disclose. Robert A. Barcinski, Assistant City Manager, stated staff received a request from the Downtown Marketing Cooperative to waive the requirement and allow banners to be hung more than fourteen (14) days prior to Savor the Avenue event being held on March 26, 2009. Marjorie Ferrer, Executive Director of the Downtown Marketing Cooperative, 1420 N. Swinton Avenue, Delray Beach (Applicant), stated she is present for any questions the Commission may have. Mayor Ellis stated if anyone from the public would like to speak in favor or in opposition of the waiver request, to please come forward at this time. There being no one from the public who wished to address the Commission regarding the waiver request, the public hearing was closed. There was no cross-examination or rebuttal. The City Attorney briefly reviewed the Board Order with the Commission who made findings according to their consensus (attached hereto is a copy and made an official part of the minutes). Mr. Eliopoulos moved to approve the Board Order as presented, seconded by Mr. McDuffie. Upon roll call the Commission voted as follows: Mr. Bernard -Yes; Mayor Ellis -Yes; Mr. Eliopoulos -Yes; Mr. Fetzer -Yes; Mr. McDuffie -Yes. Said motion passed with a 5 to 0 vote. 9.D. ATLANTIC PLAZA II/ABANDONMENT AND RELOCATION OF N.E.7TH AVENUE AND ABANDONMENT OF ALLEYWAYS: Consider approval of the attached agreements and easements regarding the abandonments and relocation of N.E. 7~ Avenue between N.E. lst Street and East Atlantic Avenue and the east-west and north-south alleyways lying east of N.E. 6~ Avenue and north of East Atlantic Avenue. (Quasi-Judicial Hearing) The City Attorney stated this will conducted as one Quasi-Judicial Hearing with separate votes. Chevelle D. Nubin, City Clerk, swore in those individuals who wished to give testimony on this item. Mayor Ellis asked the Commission to disclose their ex parte communications. -22- 02/17/09 Mr. McDuffie stated he had a number of meetings with the applicant, the applicant's agent Attorney Michael Weiner, several meetings with the Beach Property Owners Association and their Board. Mr. Bernard stated he had a number of meetings with the applicant, the applicant's agent Attorney Michael Weiner, several meetings with the Beach Property Owners Association and their Board. Mayor Ellis stated she had a number of meeting with the applicant, the applicant's agent Attorney Michael Weiner, several meetings with the Beach Property Owners Association and their Board. Mayor Ellis stated they also had a review of the plans on a couple of different occasions which included the agents for the owner Architect Derek Vander Ploeg. Mr. Eliopoulos stated he met five times with the applicant Derek Vander Ploeg and Attorney Michael Weiner and the developer Carl DeSantis and there have been a dozen emails that have come from the general public. Mr. Fetzer stated he has had the same contacts as Commissioner Eliopoulos. Ron Hoggard, AICP, Principal Planner, entered the Planning and Zoning project file #2008-209 into the record. Mr. Hoggard stated this is for the abandonment of rights-of--way and a waiver request associated with Atlantic Plaza II project. The request is to abandon a section of N.E. 7~ Avenue between Atlantic Avenue and lst. When N.E. 7~ Avenue is relocated the city will have an easement over it for the use by the City and the public. Mr. Hoggard stated there are utilities within these roadways and within the north south alleyway that will be relocated. He stated easements will be retained that will be relocated and easements will be retained under the existing alleyway and 7~ until the replacement easements are in place and the utilities are relocated. The waiver request is for the offset on 7~ and the requirement for an offset is a minimum of 125 feet and the offset here is 85 feet so this is a 40 foot reduction in the offset. Mr. Hoggard briefly reviewed the required findings. He stated the Fire-Rescue Department has reviewed this proposal and has no objections to this; the Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) and the Downtown Development Authority (DDA) reviewed this and approved it. At its meeting of January 26, 2009, the Planning and Zoning Board reviewed this and recommended approval of the waiver and the abandonments. Staff recommends that the Commission approve the waiver to LDR Section 6.1.2(C)(2)(d) to accommodate the reduction of the minimum offset on the north side from 125 feet to 85 feet and to approve the abandonment of the roadways with the replacement location of 7~ and abandonment of the alleyway with conditions as outlined in the staff report. Brian Shutt, Assistant City Attorney, stated the agreements address the abandonment and relocation of 7~ Avenue as well as the abandonment of the alleyways and the City's reserved rights in those abandonments or the re-conveyance rights for 7~ Avenue. He stated the abandonments for the relocation of N.E. 7~ Avenue the Master Agreement encompasses the Financial Guarantee Agreement, the Declaration of Reserved Rights Agreement, the Easement Agreement for vacated 7~ Avenue which is the current 7~ Avenue, the Easement Agreement for the Relocated 7~ Avenue, a Traffic Enforcement Agreement which is the City's standard enforcement agreement to allow us to enforce our traffic laws on the relocated 7~ Avenue and an Escrow Agreement. - 23 - 02/17/09 Mr. Shutt stated the agreement is to provide the City with the same rights over relocated 7~ Avenue as we would have if the Commission approves the resolution over vacated 7~ Avenue. There are certain timeframes that are listed in these agreements and they have to provide the City an environmental audit within 180 days and obtain SPRAB approval by December 1st. If they obtain SPRAB approval then they have approximately 1 ~/z years to obtain site plan certification and if that is obtained then they would have approximately 3 years to get to what staff has termed in the agreements to be like a no-turn back date. Mr. Shutt stated if they miss any of those dates staff has the right to request a re- conveyance of the 7~ Avenue as it currently exists. Once the no turn-back date is hit which is the completion of the underground tunnel where relocated 7~ Avenue and vacated 7~ Avenue comes together from that point on we can only look to relocated 7~ Avenue. The developer or owner will have approximately two years to get to substantial completion after that no-turn back date is reached. If the developer fails to make it to that date, staff has a letter of credit to accommodate the work that would need to be done to get the City to final completion on relocated 7~ Avenue. Mr. Shutt stated the alleys retain the same re-conveyance rights as there are with 7~ Avenue except on the alleys the City will receive back from the developer an easement for utilities and an easement for ingress/egress. The easement that the City will be receiving over relocated 7~ Avenue will be an exclusive easement for the public's access and the top part of the road for that use. Mr. Shutt stated for underneath the road the developer is giving the City a non- exclusive utility easement in case we need to put certain utilities in the road. For the alleyway, once the developer relocates or connects the utilities from the alleys (exterior portion of the project) then the City will release the utility easement over the alleyways. Mr. Shutt stated the access easement that we have over the alleyways will be released when we have received documentation from the developer. Mr. Shutt stated in the northwest corner of the project Carole Financial Plaza is the only entity that the City would have an issue with them using a parking lot where they go across the public alley. Once the developer provides the City with documents showing that they are providing the easement for those people to continue to use that parking lot, at that point in time staff can terminate the access easement. However, the City will still maintain the re- conveyance of both of those alleys until all the conditions are satisfied and until that no turn-back date is reached. The City will also be receiving from the developer prior to commencement of construction concerning the alleyways a letter of credit that provides if there is damage on those alleys the City can make a claim on the letter of credit in order to repair the alleyways to put them in the condition that they were prior to abandonment. Mr. Shutt stated there are also provisions concerning the sidewalks along 7~ Avenue will be public and the public will have all the rights that we currently have in our public sidewalks. He stated on the agreement for the abandonment of the alleyways the master agreement also incorporates the easement agreements for the abandoned alleyways, the utilities and the access, the Financial Guarantee & Agreement, the Declaration of Reserved Rights and a Traffic Enforcement Agreement as well. Michael Weiner, Attorney with Weiner, Aronson & Mankoff, P.A., 10 S.E. 1St Avenue, Delray Beach (reuresentin~ CDS Holdings, Inc.), thanked City staff and Mr. DeSantis for the hours of work they put in and the system they came up to be certain that the City would be assured that 7~ Avenue would be built. -24- 02/17/09 Mr. Weiner stated they have met the burden of proof with respect to substantial competent evidence and briefly reviewed the project. The project is immediately west of Veteran's Park surrounded on Atlantic Avenue to the south N.E. 6t~ on the west N.E. 1st on the north. He stated they are requesting the abandonment of an alley and the abandonment and relocation of N.E. 7t~. Mr. Weiner stated after speaking with members of the Beach Property Owners Association, Barr Terrace, Seagate Towers, and FDOT among others they have decided that the best approach to 7t~ Avenue is a slight curve and what this does is give the same ingress and egress point on Atlantic Avenue. The only difference is that the street jogs to the east allowing for a better public presentation of this particular project. Mr. Weiner stated they have three advantages (1) they are shifting the intensities toward Federal Highway, (2) buffering the Palm Trail community, and (3) giving the improvement of Atlantic Court and a way around the intersection of Atlantic and Federal Highway. He stated they received approval from the Planning and Zoning Board, had favorable votes from the Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA), the Downtown Development Authority (DDA) as well the Treasure Coast Regional Planning Council reviewed the Plan. Mr. Weiner stated they also have support from the Florida Department of Transportation as well as the positive staff report with respect to both the abandonment and the roadway. Mr. Weiner urged the Commission to support the abandonment and relocation of N.E. 7t~ Avenue and abandonment of alleyways. Mayor Ellis stated if anyone from the public would like to speak in favor or in opposition of this item, to please come forward at this time. Brett Forman, 411 N.E. 8th Avenue, Delray Beach (works within the redeveloument area of Carole Financial Plaza), stated as a resident and as a business owner and employer he expressed concern over the safety of his children and employees. Mr. Forman stated the 7t~ Avenue corridor is like a racetrack and supports the development as a whole and the new traffic pattern. Andy Katz, 220 South Ocean Boulevard, Delray Beach, reuresentin~ the Beach Prouerty Owners Association (BPOA), stated two weeks ago when this was before the Planning and Zoning Board they had a first draft as a document that did not protect the public. Mr. Katz stated is very happy to see that this new document is indeed day and night different from before and it does protect the public rights to a public street which is an easement now on a private piece of property. He thanked Brian Shutt, Assistant City Attorney, for providing the BPOA with the documentation. Bob Victorin, 120 South Ocean Boulevard, Delray Beach (Beach Prouerty Owners Association), expressed concern over traffic and public safety as a result of the realignment of streets and traffic in relation to the development of the Atlantic Plaza II. Mr. Victorin stated their main interest deals with traffic and the surrounding corridors of the proposed Atlantic II development (Atlantic Avenue and N.E. 7t~ Avenue). He stated there are unusual traffic conditions in this location compared to other areas in Delray Beach. Mr. Victorin stated the BPOA is requesting the following three conditions for approval in future traffic plans: (1) the City Commission must make certain that they clearly state that the City Engineer needs to press FDOT not to reduce - 25 - 02/17/09 any Atlantic Avenue traffic lanes and maintain all current left-turn dedicated lanes going east or west, (2) that the proposed new parallel parking spots just west of the bridge on the north side of Atlantic Avenue not be added, (3) the BPOA feels that the proposed exit from Veteran's Park poses a dangerous situation since the visibility to westbound traffic approaching over the bridge is very limited and essentially blocked by the palm trees between the exit and the bridge. Mr. Victorin suggested that a common forum be held open to all interested parties. Joe Snider, 1010 N.E. 8t'' Avenue, #35, Delray Beach (Architect), stated this is being requested to provide an adequate building depth along N.E. 6 Avenue. Mr. Snider stated every block to the north, south, and west of this is the same depth or less and therefore other people are able to build within that depth requirement. He inquired as to what the city is actually trying to achieve and what are we getting out of it. Mr. Snider stated the biggest thing he has heard is people are getting traffic calming on 7~ Avenue and asked where the data is showing the complaints and other issues showing the traffic problem there. He suggested that the City try some other less invasive traffic calming measures and pointed out that there is not even a stop sign at the N.E. lst intersection. Mr. Snider inquired why the City has to give up 7~ Avenue and why does it have to have a curve in it to achieve that because he feels this can be achieved by keeping 7~ Avenue straight. Mr. Snider stated he is on the Green Task Force for Delray Beach and for Palm Beach County and many cities are pursuing incentives to get green in their city. He stated building incentives are a no cost way to get the private sector to build green and urged the City to explore that. Mr. Snider stated he does not understand why staff does not feel that giving this up would create problems with other applicants coming forward and creating a dangerous precedent. Christina Betters, 931 Palm Trail, Delray Beach, stated she has lived in town for many years and those blocks have been underutilized. She stated the project is incredible and will be a great benefit to the city. Ms. Betters stated there is a traffic problem on 7~ Avenue and it needs to be slowed down; however, she supports the change. Jason Bre~man, 3320 Delray Bay Drive, Aut. #316, Delray Beach (Planner & Designer and has lived here for over 4 years), stated he feels people are very supportive of the project with the idea of growth for the City of new things coming in; however, he reiterated comments of Mr. Snider that something is being requested of the City and is something that we do not have to give and it is something that can be used to leverage other positive benefits for the City. Mr. Bregman stated he would like to see some real numbers for investment in Veteran's Park and some serious commitment to making some green and strong moves towards better and stronger environmental buildings. He stated the Planning and Zoning Board indicated that even though the Board had to approve this because they felt it was accomplishing positive things, they said the architecture was "graceless" and "boca'ish". He stated the Commission can consider what is being done as a whole because as the Commission approves each of these changes and each and every of these waivers, he feels the City should consider asking back from a large development like this. -26- 02/17/09 Michael Singer, lives in the Palm Trail neighborhood area, stated he will be shocked if this is turned down. Mr. Singer stated he drives 7 Avenue everyday and noted this is not a speedway. He stated if it is considered a speedway and as it has been said for the last several months and had police here agreeing with the people putting this forward that we have to do traffic calming, why we have not seen stop signs on that road. Mr. Singer stated the City is being asked to completely change the nature of a street in the City for what public good and commented that he only sees this as the highest and biggest use not for the public but for the developer. He stated the efficiency of the intersections is increased and the jogging of 7~ Avenue has nothing to do with the cutting off of the egress/ingress. Mr. Singer stated that is accomplished by the developments other possibilities. Courtney Salomon, 1010 N.E. 8t'' Avenue, Delray Beach, stated she is very excited about the project and being a local business owner downtown she feels it will contribute great things. However, she does feel that when a City makes an exception for a private developer then it does set a precedent for future things. Todd L'Herrou, 830 Kokomo Key Lane, Delray Beach (resident and business owner), stated this project is very important for the downtown and noted that during Jazz on the Avenue this section is always dead. He stated the City needs something in this area to bring people there day and night year after year and feels this is the project to do that. Mr. L'Herrou stated there are some compromises to be made with but feels that this project is critical to the development of this town. He stated in return the City is getting taxes on something that used to not be taxable and we are also getting economical development that we need in times that are tough. Mr. L'Herrou urged the Commission to move forward with this project. Alice Finst, 707 Place Tavant, Delray Beach, expressed concern over the abandonment of the alleyway and stated the City is giving the developer this big strip of land if this proposal goes through and asked what the City is getting in return. Mrs. Finst stated eliminating the alley is a huge mistake and she hopes when it comes to voting for that particular alleyway the City will keep it. Bill Wood, 3777 N.W. 8t'' Street, Delray Beach, stated this project is clearly one of the last large economic development projects that may occur in the downtown. Mr. Wood stated the developer has comprised a huge parcel of land and as recommending a project that will benefit us in terms of new jobs and new businesses and all of the things that make a community sustainable and able to support itself from within. He feels in terms of the layout and what the developer is proposing it is a great project. Vincent Dole, 245 N.E. 8t'' Avenue, Delray Beach, supports the project specifically in support of shifting 7~ Avenue as proposed. Mr. Dole stated he believes 7~ Avenue is an alternative to Federal Highway and is used largely by people outside the neighborhood. He stated there are no traffic lights and very few stop signs so it is a clear alternative. Mr. Dole stated it is a great benefit to their neighborhood in which there are many young children to have this diversion which he believes will cut down dramatically -27- 02/17/09 on the traffic that passes through a neighborhood and was never meant to be used as it is currently being used. Mr. Dole stated he feels there are substantial benefits to the neighborhood as well as other substantial benefits to the City for the overall project and urged the Commission to support it. Bob Gamer, resident of Gulf Stream, feels this project should be approved as requested. Mr. Granger stated the appearance of the project is where the tough decisions are going to have to be made but feels that the overall concept is sound. He urged the Commission to work with the developer over the next several months to work with the developer to assure themselves that the legacy they leave and this project is something that everyone will be proud o£ Mr. Ganger urged the Commission to support this project and approve this abandonment. There was no cross-examination from staff or Mr. Weiner. The following individual had a brief rebuttal: Mr. Hoggard commented about the benefits of the traffic calming affects of shifting this road to the east. He suggested also considering not just the traffic that is there now going on 7th but to also consider the traffic that will be generated by the activity of this project. Mr. Hoggard stated comments were made about the affects of putting limitations on what can happen on Atlantic Avenue in terms of the turn lanes and the parking on the north side and commented that those things are going to be issues regardless if this road is shifted or not and are issues that will be dealt with in the Site Plan Review and Appearance Board phase. With regard to Mrs. Finst's comments about the north south alleyway, Mr. Hoggard stated if the City were not redeveloping this project and aggregating the property on both sides of the alley into one building then he would agree with her. However, since the proposal is to aggregate the property the alleyway has no benefit. Michael Weiner, Attorney with Weiner, Aronson, and Mankoff, P.A., 10 S.E. lgt Avenue, Delray Beach, stated nothing the Commission does tonight has anything to do with what it is that will be done in Atlantic Avenue inside that right-of- way and it is before the FDOT. Mr. Weiner stated the City is the applicant and they wish to work with the City as they work their way through the Florida Department of Transportation. He stated Veteran's Park is an out only so he does not feel that there is any traffic situation with respect to leaving Veteran's Park onto Atlantic Avenue. Mr. Weiner stated with respect to green and sustainability, they are eliminating the gasoline station. He stated this it is obvious that considering the fact that this location was so close to downtown that this kind of traffic pattern impinges upon and makes it difficult to have the superior quality development that this project demands. - 28 - 02/17/09 Mr. Weiner stated they have met all the requirements with respect to an abandonment, all of the requirements with respect to a waiver, they have heard from other professionals that are not on this development team including City staff, they have heard from more than three Boards that consists of 20 different opinion makers, they had Charrettes in which they were told to make sure Palm Trail is not a speedway and they have met substantial competent evidence. Mr. Eliopoulos asked what the City is doing with FDOT right now. In response, Mr. Krejcarek stated FDOT tabled and asked the City to come back and talk about is the discussion about the number of lanes on East Atlantic Avenue eastbound between 6~ Avenue (northbound Federal Highway) and 7~ Avenue. Mr. Krejcarek stated the existing 7~ Avenue intersection currently has two lanes eastbound and two lanes westbound. He stated when the applicant showed FDOT the same configuration going westbound but only one lane going eastbound with the median on Atlantic Avenue which could serve as refuge for pedestrians crossing Atlantic Avenue. Mr. Krejcarek stated they also had a second plan that showed two lanes eastbound in that same block on Atlantic Avenue. He stated FDOT told staff to go back to the City and have the City tell us what they want to see on Atlantic Avenue. Mr. Eliopoulos asked if a round-a-bout was ever looked at for the existing intersection at the north side. Mr. Krejcarek stated staff had several meetings about that intersection (N.E. 7~ Avenue & N.E. lst Street intersection) and asked the developer to look at what other options are available. He stated they told us that they had looked at options but staff has not personally seen any that they came forward with showing what those options were but they had talked about other options as to how to handle that intersection. Mr. Eliopoulos stated this road that the public is going to be using how the speed limits are going to be controlled there and asked if this is controlled by the City or the developer. The City Manager stated the City may have to enter into an agreement like we do a lot of other private streets but the City would control it. Mr. Eliopoulos stated suppose there is an issue with the construction of that road and asked how numbers are established with regards to the City having to take over to finish the construction of something like this. Mr. Krejcarek stated there were certain timeframes that were agreed upon and the numbers that are in the Letter of Credit are numbers that is an amount that allows us to go in and finish 7~ Avenue and also take out the tunnel that would go underneath 7~ because if the City is going to take back that road after the "no turn back date" we do not want the tunnel underneath there. Mr. Eliopoulos stated this developer has tried to have open communication with everybody. Mr. Eliopoulos stated the previous project that came before upset a lot of people and he was on the Planning and Zoning Board at the time and voted against the project. He stated at that time many spoke about a big traffic problem on 7~ Avenue and cars were racing through the neighborhood. Mr. Eliopoulos feels there is going to be increased traffic because it is a large project. Mr. Eliopoulos commented about the street pattern and stated if you look at Federal Highway there have not been successful buildings there and stated one of things that we have talked about before is having a Class "A" office space but we do not have those types of footprints. He stated he agrees with Joe Snider and this is a great opportunity and encourage green opportunities. -29- 02/17/09 Mr. Eliopoulos stated although the architecture is not an issue tonight but he does feels that we need to keep up with the architecture in making sure that it fits within Delray Beach. He expressed concern over Atlantic and the bridge and the exit coming out of Veteran's Park because there are issues with congestion there. Mr. Eliopoulos stated this has been a process for over two years where it has constantly been developing and this is how you try to get a good project approved in Delray that is going to last a long time and be successful. Mr. McDuffie thanked everyone who spoke this evening. He stated Mr. Eliopoulos is correct and noted that the Commission has been meeting with the builder, Mr. Weiner, Mr. Vander Ploeg, with the residents in the neighborhood and there were multiple Charrettes held at the site. Mr. McDuffie stated every time that he has had the opportunity to speak to the architects and the builders they have listened. Mr. McDuffie stated the builder and owner heard what the residents were saying and wanted to be able to get together with City staff and guarantee in perpetuity that the rights of the citizens to the access of 7~ Avenue would remain the same that they are today for now and evermore. Mr. McDuffie commended the architect, builder and owner of this project in that they have listened every time that he has had the opportunity to speak to them. Mr. Bernard inquired about the history of the City receiving these alleyways. Mr. Shutt explained that in most cases the City gets alleyways through public dedication so there is not a cost to the City because it is a building requirement or a development requirement. Mr. Bernard stated there was a comment about the City not getting anything by giving the alleyways and asked if this is the case with this. Mr. Shutt stated he has not gone back to see if the City has paid for the alleyways but believes this was through a public dedication. Mr. Shutt stated the City is not going to be incurring and further maintenance cost on relocated 7~ Avenue which we would if we still had 7~ Avenue. Mr. Shutt stated it is up to the developer or the owner now to maintain 7~ Avenue. The City Manager stated these alleys are still part of the original plat of Delray Beach (Town of Linton at the time). Mr. Bernard stated this project will provide the economic development that this area needs and we need to make sure that the project is sustainable and take a look at making sure that the project is as green as possible. Mr. Fetzer stated the easiest thing we could do is sit back and not change the right-of--ways. However, he stated the Commission is trying to work as a City with this developer to get something in our downtown area. Mr. Fetzer stated the City needs the economic development and needs a project that is compatible with the downtown. He stated he too was disappointed with the first design of Atlantic Plaza but the City has now been given something that is totally different (underground parking, lower density, economic engine for the downtown). Mr. Fetzer stated the current building is an old suburban style shopping center that has never down well and urged everyone to work with the developer to get something in there that we can all be proud of and something that will be great for the future of our downtown. He stated he supports this project and continuing to work through the SPRAB process to get the type of quality there that the City needs. -30- 02/17/09 9.D.1.

Doug Smith, Assistant City Manager, presented a list of proposed legislative priorities at the State level for consideration on what they have drafted for suggested City positions and also some items that staff would track through the legislative process. Mr. Smith stated there will be numerous other bills that the Commission will receive updates on from the League of Cities. He stated staff has categorized under legislative issues with some of the important issues that they have emphasized in the past such as unfunded mandates, growth issues, tax revenue issues, education, transportation, environmental issues, voting and public information issues, and also appropriation items. Mr. Smith stated staff's plan is to prepare a brochure format like last year with summary on many of the key items that the Commission can hand out to different Legislators. -32- 02/17/09 Mayor Ellis stated she and Rich Reade will be seeing Senator Klein tomorrow. was great. Commission. Mr. Fetzer stated he feels the brochure summary that staff did last year Mr. Smith stated staff will put the brochure together again this year for the 9.G. HOFFERT v.

City of Delray Beach for court costs and final resolution of the case upon the conditions of dismissal of the appeal and the receipt of appropriate releases. The City Attorney stated this case stems from incidents that happened quite a while ago with a psychic in town. Staff stated the City went to trial on this case and the jury came back with $23,400.00 as the City's cost. The City Attorney stated the City issued a check in that amount but because they are the prevailing party at trial the City is responsible for costs. Since that time they have also filed an appeal. The City Attorney stated this approval would be to pay $15,000.00 for their costs on the conditions that they would enter into a satisfaction of final judgment, file a release of any and all claims including costs and a filing notice of voluntary dismissal in the 4~ District Court of Appeals case. Staff recommends approval. Mr. Fetzer moved to approve the payment by the City in the amount of $15,000.00 in Hoffert v.

Upon roll call the Commission voted as follows: Mr. Bernard -Yes; Mayor Ellis -Yes; Mr. Eliopoulos -Yes; Mr. Fetzer -Yes; Mr. McDuffie -Yes. Said motion passed with a 5 to 0 vote. 9.H. PROPOSAL FOR SETTLEMENT IN HEATHER LEITCH v. CITY OF DELRAY BEACH: Consider a Proposal for Settlement in the amount of $35,000.00 in Heather Leitch v. City of Delray Beach. Staff recommends denial of the proposal for settlement. The City Attorney stated this stems from a stray gun shot that she was impacted by at the First Night 2006 celebration. There has been an offer of settlement in the amount of $35,000.00 and noted her medical expenses are $43,183.00. Staff recommends denial of this settlement offer because staff believes that they have sovereign immunity. Mr. Eliopoulos moved to approve the Proposal for Settlement in Heather Leitch v. City of Delray Beach, seconded by Mr. Bernard. Upon roll call the Commission voted as follows: Mayor Ellis - No; Mr. Eliopoulos - No; Mr. Fetzer - No; Mr. McDuffie - No; Mr. Bernard - No. Said motion was DENIED with a 5 to 0 vote. - 33 - 02/17/09 9.I. NOTICE OF CLAIM FILED/DORIS NYDELL v. CITY OF DELRAY BEACH: Consider a Notice of Claim in the amount of $50,000.00 filed by Doris Nydell v. City of Delray Beach and Florida East Coast Railway (FEC); and authorize the City to work with Florida East Coast Railway (FEC) to install sidewalks on N.E. 2nd Avenue and Atlantic Avenue. Staff recommends denial of claim. The City Attorney stated this is in the claim stage but staff has had quite a few contacts from FEC (Florida East Coast Railway) and they want the City to also contribute in this case. This is a trip and fall on the railroad crossing area on N.E. 2nd Avenue and Atlantic Avenue. The City Attorney stated this trip and fall occurred on the FEC right-of--way not City right-of--way so the City has resisted this claim. However, the City Attorney stated now they have come back with an offer and they are very insistent. She stated because the City is not in litigation they have an open door session about this not closed. Staff recommends denial because his incident did not happen on the City right-of--way. The City Attorney stated that the City Commission may want to authorize staff to pursue looking into some kind of partnership with the FEC regarding discussions on sidewalks and signalization. She stated this does not have to be part of the motion, however, suggested that the Commission think about this as an item to think about. Prior to the vote, Mr. Eliopoulos stated with regard to the City Attorney's comments he feels the City should encourage more communication and if there are things that the City needs to do to down the road with regard to signage or proper crossings at the railroad crossing then he suggests that the City pursue it.

Commissioner Eliopoulos declared a conflict of interest and stepped down from the dais. Randal Krej carek, City Engineer, stated this is a sidewalk deferral for the property located at 200 Marine Way and noted that this is the property at the very south end of Marine Way which is the intersection S.E. 2nd Street and Marine Way.

Mr. Bernard stated he would like to postpone his appointment to the Regular Meeting of March 3, 2009. At this point, the time being 10:24 p.m., the Commission moved to Item 13, Comments and Inquiries on Non-Agenda Items. 13. COMMENTS AND INQUIRIES ON NON-AGENDA ITEMS. 13.A. City Manager With regard to the replacement of the windows at Old School Square, the City Manager stated there was apre-bid meeting on January 9, 2009 and pre-bid meeting questions were asked about the wind load calculations. After investigating these questions, it was determined that due to the age of the building and the lack of as-built drawings, it would be helpful to all bidders if a window per building was removed to provide more information on existing conditions. The City Manager stated the City also told bidders that we would provide them with necessary connection details. - 35 - 02/17/09 As these details were being developed, it was realized that the original FEMA application called for the windows to be rated for 155 mph (this was the wind speed FEMA told the City to use) when in fact the maximum rating in Palm Beach County is 140 mph. After contacting the State to see if we could use 140 mph versus 150 mph we received preliminary notification that this probably can be accomplished but the agreement may need to be modified to reflect the new wind speed. The City is waiting on the final response from the State before finalizing the connection details. Secondly, the City Manager stated Mr. Fetzer had asked about the voluntary contributions for cultural facilities and the direction from the Commission was to solicit voluntary contributions on a quarterly basis utilizing a separate flyer that would be mailed out with the water bills. This was selected because our HTE software would not permit a separate check box on the water bill itself. The City Manager stated the Commission also agreed that any funds collected would go to the Creative City Collaborative to distribute under a grant program and the City will ask for assistance in developing the flyer. The City met with Creative City Collaborative in October and they were skeptical about that method but they did assign asub-committee to work with Mr. Barcinski on the design. The City Manager stated Mr. Barcinski met with a sub- committee to talk about the flyer design as well as criteria for a grant program. Various ideas were discussed but we did not come up with a design. Staff was to meet again in early December but due to vacations, holidays, illnesses, and other work priorities, they were unable to meet. Mr. Barcinski's intention now is to work with the City's PIO staff and the Finance Department to develop a draft and take it back to the sub-committee. Staff's intent is to try and get something approved by the end of February that can go out with the March billings. Mr. Fetzer asked if this is something that staff can transmit to Joe Gillie. The City Manager stated that staff can do this. The City Manager commented on Glenn Goss's letter and also agrees that the Forbes magazine article is misleading when it talks about full medical benefits; however, by State law the City is required to allow all of its retired employees to remain as part of our group. The City Manager stated the Governmental Accounting Standards Board has a new requirement where the City is going to have to calculate an unfunded liability for other post employment benefits because they say keeping retirees' in our group increases our total costs and we have to estimate that and account for it and show it as a liability on the City's financial statements. The City Manager stated the City's retirees' pay for their coverage but they pay at the group rate. He stated there are a lot of local governments around that provide it at the cost of the local government. However, the City of Delray Beach requires the retirees' to pay for their own coverage. The City Manager stated he is technically correct when he says that our Police and Fire Retirees' benefits are not indexed to inflation; however, beginning the 25~ year after their hire date they get a retirement benefit enhancement (1%-4% each year after retirement) and therefore an increase in their retirement benefit. The amount is determined by the Police and Fire Pension Board. From 1994 until the middle of 2002 the Police and Fire Pension Board gave 4% every year; the CPI (Consumer Price Index) in those years was 2.7%, 2.5%, 3.3%, 1.7%, 1.6%, 2.7%, 3.4%, and 1.6%. -36- 02/17/09 The City Manager stated part of 2002 was at 2% and part of the year was at 2%, 2~/z% because there is a dispute with the State about the use of some of that money. He stated some of that money is being escrowed now until that dispute is resolved and that has been done since 2002 and the Pension Board started giving 2~/z% and the CPI in 2002 was 2.4%, 2003 was 1.9%, 2004 was 3.3%, 2005 3.4%. The City Manager stated he does not have the last three years. He stated over the last 11 years the average was more than the CPI pursuant to the 1993 agreement. The City Manager stated he would like to get back and talk with Mike McCleary and noted that he has the greatest respect for what firefighters do when it comes to the service they provide and they are totally selfless and often assume various risks. The City Manager stated he did not intend to say anything discouraging about that but when you sit down at the bargaining table the union exists to get the best benefits and pay they can for their members. The City Manager stated there is nothing wrong with that and that is the way the system works. The City Manager stated at the bargaining table they are out for their interests and not necessarily the public that they serve. He stated he wanted to clear this up because he feels the Fire-Rescue Department does a fantastic job and noted that their service is superior to anyone else in the County. 13.B. City Attorney The City Attorney commended Brian Shutt, Assistant City Attorney for working so diligently on the documents for Atlantic Plaza as well as the crew from the other side. 13.C. City Commission 13.C.1. Mr. Fetzer Mr. Fetzer stated he would like to give the Commission a brief update on his discussion with Larry Brown who is performing the investigation for the City. He stated he has 17,000 pages of documentation to go through and the next step is to identify who he will be interviewing at the City. Mr. Fetzer stated Mr. Brown hopes to finish the document review this week and by next week begin to move into the interview process over the next two weeks. Mr. Fetzer stated Mr. Brown has been in touch with Mary McCarty's attorney and she has agreed to interview with Mr. Brown with her attorney present. 13.C.2. Mr. Eliououlos Mr. Eliopoulos stated he believes there was also an amount that the City received for replacement of the windows for Old School Square and most likely that number is not going to work because that is an old number. He stated going into the building and restructuring things is probably not being taken into consideration. Mr. Eliopoulos stated staff needs to be aware of the cost. -37- 02/17/09 Secondly, he stated with regard to Mrs. Finst's comments with regard to Federal Highway and the CVS Pharmacy, he does not believe that when the City changed the zoning to CBD (Central Business District) that it was what we were looking for. Mr. Eliopoulos suggested that we look at North Federal Highway through the Economic Development Committee. 13.C.3. Mr. Bernard Mr. Bernard stated he is glad he has won the Election automatically. Secondly, with regards to the school crossing guards at Atlantic High School, Mr. Bernard stated he has seen a lot of accidents there. He said some of these kids are driving for the first time and with the construction that is going there it would be detrimental to lose the crossing guards at this location. The City Manager stated the Police Department went through all of the cities crossing guards and determined which ones were least needed and there is no requirement to have crossing guards for high school students but it is a requirement for elementary school. The City Manager stated the school crossing guards cost $200,000.00 and the budget was cut to $50,000.00 and then staff took it back up to $150,000.00; however, $50,000.00 needs to be cut from the budget. 13.C.4. Mr. McDuffie Mr. McDuffie asked if all the things that he needs to convey to the MPO (Metropolitan Planning Organization) are in the excel spreadsheet he received today.

Mr. McDuffie stated they do site searches for business relocations and these are the type of people the City of Delray Beach would like to meet with and attract to this area. Mr. McDuffie thanked Mr. Eliopoulos for his email and stated he presented the information regarding the MROC, transient oriented development, shuttle systems, the rezoning of four corners, the new height on Congress Avenue, the City's expediting permitting process, etc. to these people. Mr. McDuffie thanked the Commission for everything they provided to him because it really helped. Mr. McDuffie stated Kelly Smallridge mentioned the things that they were relocating and the things that they were placing. -38- 02/17/09 One was alternate energy but he said those are being placed in states were electricity is expensive and it is cheap in Florida. The second is Aerospace but normally you need a lot of acreage and space to do that. However, there is one that was mentioned that may be a fit for Florida and they are returning to the United States and that is call centers and help desk centers. Mr. McDuffie stated it was very interesting and he learned some things that the City might be able to leverage. 13.C.5.

He stated lot width is required to be 75 feet and the lot width is actually 63.37 feet and the frontage is actually 24 feet. Mr. Dorling stated although this form of subdivision design is not normally encouraged, in this situation it is being done to accommodate the creation of a new single family lot which provides economic viability to save and renovate the existing home which is going to be located on Lot 1. He stated that home is currently non-contributing but is recommended for contributing status in the resurvey of the Marina District. Staff recommends approval of the two waivers. Mr. Dorling stated the plat and the associated waivers also went to the Historic Preservation Board (HPB) and were recommended for approval on October 15, 2008. David P.

SELECTION OF CONSULTANT FOR THE GREEN TASK FORCE ONLINE MEETING BULLETIN BOARD: Consider two (2) proposals received for computer software development and select one to implement the Green Task Force online bulletin board meetings. Terrill Pyburn, Assistant City Attorney, stated in May 2008 the City Commission requested that City staff and specifically the City Attorney's office to do some research regarding whether or not the City's Green Task Force Board could hold on-line Board Meetings. In June, the Commission directed the City Attorney's office to obtain an opinion from the Attorney General's office as to that matter. In December, the Attorney General responded and said that we could pursue holding on-line Workshop Board Meetings for the Green Task Force and after that the City's Purchasing Department requested proposals which they are allowed to do under ordinance Section 36.02 which provides that items under $15,000.00 you can request proposals from at least three vendors. Ms. Pyburn stated they sought to do that and they received two proposals back in response; one from ComputerWorx which submitted a proposal in amount of $1,600.00 and one from Wright Communications & Technology, Co. which submitted a proposal in the amount of $9,150.00 for the On-line Bulletin Board Committee met in February and recommended that ComputerWorx be selected by the Commission and they determined that additional work may be required as this is a new concept that has not really been tested yet. Therefore, staff has drafted a proposed agreement that the contractor the Commission selects tonight will have to enter into to with the City of Delray Beach which provides that they would provide the framework to hold the meetings based on their proposed amount but also that any additional work would have to be agreed to by the City and they would have to submit a proposal for any additional work for maintenance or repair before it would be agreed to. Ms. Pyburn stated that per the agreement the consultant would have to provide the City with all software source codes so that the City of Delray Beach would have the ability to advertise, sell, distribute and use the software as we see fit in the future without paying any royalties to the consultant. Dan Sloan, 106 S.E. 7th Avenue, Delray Beach, stated this was an idea that the Green Task Force had because they had a lot of volume of technical material they wanted to discuss on an interim basis. He stated this bulletin board software where you can have on-line meetings fully transparent where any citizen anywhere in the world can check read this if they are traveling, it can be archived, searchable for public records purposes, and could be utilized for things such as a Budget Task Force in the future that has a lot of data. Mr. Sloan stated this would have wide applicability. Mr. McDuffie asked who the design team is. Mr. Sloan stated this is actually a free software package that the Green Task Force is going to customize to meet the City's requirements for data security, archiving, and adapt it for the particular requirements to comply with the sunshine law. Mr. McDuffie asked Mr. Sloan if he feels this can be accomplished with $1,600.00. Mr. Sloan stated he is convinced that this can be accomplished for $1,600.00. -8- 03/03/09 Mr. McDuffie asked what this software is written in. Ed DelPortillo, Project Manager, stated open source BB bulletin Board (PHP). For the record, Mr. DelPortillo stated this could possibly cost a little more than $1,600.00 although staff does not anticipate it to be an exorbitant amount. He stated the only other cost there would be is to secure it on the server side. Mr. McDuffie asked if there is a data base involved. In response, Mr. DelPortillo stated "my sequel" which will be hosted in the IT's environment and protected in IT's environment. Mr. DelPortillo stated it will be in the control of IT and the source code is IT's. Mr. Fetzer stated he understands that this is the first application of this sort in the State. Ms. Pyburn stated it appears that other cities, counties, and other agencies have requested permission from the Attorney General's office in the past to do something similar but they never quite got it off the ground because either the Attorney General responded that they could not meet the requirements or they thought that it would be too costly at that time to meet the requirements. However, at this time, Ms. Pyburn stated the technology is much better and much easier to apply. Ms. Pyburn emphasized that this is only for Workshop Meetings so it cannot be applied to any meetings where there would be a vote taken and for that it is still required that you must have a physical presence of at least a quorum of the board members. Mr. Fetzer asked if Ms. Pyburn sees applications for other cities to do a similar type of thing. Ms. Pyburn stated the City is hoping to sell it at some point in the future. Mr. Eliopoulos stated he thinks this is great and would be a great thing to implement for the Budget Task Force. Mayor Ellis stated she appreciates Mr. Sloan's efforts. Prior to the vote, The City Attorney stated she too would like to thank Mr. Sloan for his efforts. At this point, Mr. Clifford Wright, owner of the company who submitted the other proposal (Wright Communications & Technology, Co.) came forward. Mr. Wright stated his company is the one who initially turned in the proposal for $100,000.00 and they knew exactly what they were doing. Mr. Wright stated they later came back because they were asked to do another proposal with additional software. He stated they took a very analytical approach to what they were doing and did not just do this to just turn a bid in. Mr. Fetzer moved approval of the contract and award to ComputerWorx in the amount of $1,600.00 and incidentals, seconded by Mr. Eliopoulos. Upon roll call the Commission voted as follows: Mayor Ellis -Yes; Mr. Eliopoulos -Yes; Mr. Fetzer - Yes; Mr. McDuffie -Yes. Said motion passed with a 4 to 0 vote. The City Attorney stated she too would like to thank Mr. Sloan for his efforts. -9- 03/03/09 At this point, Mr. Clifford Wright, owner of the company who submitted the other proposal (Wright Communications & Technology, Co.) came forward. Mr. Wright stated his company is the one who initially turned in the proposal for $100,000.00 and they knew exactly what they were doing and have been in this business almost 50 years. Mr. Wright stated they later came back because they were asked to do another proposal with additional software. He stated they took a very analytical approach to what they were doing and did not just do this to just turn a bid in. 9.E. AQUIFER STORAGE AND RECOVERY WELL: Approve and authorize the discharge of contaminated water from the Aquifer Storage and Recovery (ASR) Well to the City's sanitary sewer system for approximately four (4) months at an estimated cost of $165,000.00 for treatment, required materials and equipment. Funding is available from 441-5142-536-34.80 (Water and Sewer Fund/Share Wastewater Treatment) and 442-5178-536-46.90 (Water and Sewer RenewaUOther Repair & Maintenance Costs). Richard Hasko, Director of Environmental Services, stated this item is a request for approval of an expenditure amount not to exceed $165,000.00 to reactivate the viable nature of the Aquifer Storage and Recovery (ASR) Well located just north of the City Attorney's office. Mr. Hasko stated the ASR was constructed years ago as a cost effective alternative to proposed ground water storage and pumping stations in the northeast area. Mr. Hasko stated there was a long period of testing because it was relatively new technology for the City. Staff just obtained an operational permit on it and started having problems with the pumping equipment and every time a pump would burn out it was 250 feet into the well so a contractor would have to come in with a big crane and the well is under artesian pressure so the City had to keep a salt plug in it to keep the water down there and noted it was very costly every time the pump burnt out. He stated the well has remained static for some period of time while the City was redesigning the pump equipment, etc. to overcome those issues which staff has done. Mr. Hasko stated staff found out that because of the length of time that the treated product sat in the chloride environment we had the arsenic problem crop up that many of the ASR's around the State for the same reason are trying to deal with it at this point. Mr. Hasko stated staff had one of the consultants look at alternative methods for arsenic removal so that the City could start operating the well. He stated these cost approximately $4-$13 million at the wellhead. Mr. Hasko stated the City worked with the Palm Beach County Health Department and did some testing of the water at the Water Treatment Plant sending samples of the product from the ASR through the plant process. Staff determined that the flow of that through the plant process was well below the allowable limits in drinking water. The Health Department took a conservative approach and they insisted on some sort of wellhead treatment. Mr. Hasko stated staff has received approval through the Health Department and FDEP (Florida Department of Environmental Protection) as well having been being accepted by the South Central Regional Wastewater Plant is to do a controlled withdrawn and discharge to the City's wastewater system. He stated it would go out to the plant through the City's normal sewer system and it would get processed through the plant and the dilution factor would bring the arsenic levels well below the maximum levels that are controlled in wastewater flows per the City's ordinance. Staff is -10- 03/03/09 confident that they will be able to get the arsenic water out of there at such point in time that the sampling and testing protocol shows the City that the arsenic is gone. Mr. Hasko stated then the City can re-implement and re-permit the ASR Well itself and begin to use it as it was originally intended to be used. He stated less than $20,000.00 is for equipment that is needed and in sending the flow to the plant we are going to add to the flow going to the meter so we are going to get charged for that. Staff estimates approximately $145,000.00-$145,500.00 that operating costs for treatment at the plant will increase. Mr. McDuffie asked if this is a common occurrence. Mr. Hasko stated it is the City's experience and is a similar experience that a number of utilities are having with ASR's around the State and there is a time limit how long you can leave the treated water in the well and creates the arsenic. Mr. Hasko stated staff is flushing the contaminated what used to be treated water so that it is not contaminated with arsenic at a controlled rate as to not to exceed the industrial pretreatment limits at the Wastewater Treatment Plant and over time staff will be sampling and testing that on a regular basis and over time that arsenic level will decrease until the contaminated product is out of there. He stated then at that point staff can start recharging the well and recycle testing and get aiming towards re-permitting it for operation. followed. Brief discussion between Mr. Hasko and Commissioner McDuffie Mr. McDuffie moved to approve expenditures not to exceed $165,000.00 related to the removal of arsenic contamination from the Aquifer Storage and Recovery Well (ASR), seconded by Mr. Eliopoulos. Upon roll call the Commission voted as follows: Mr. Fetzer -Yes; Mr. McDuffie -Yes; Mayor Ellis -Yes; Mr. Eliopoulos - Yes. Said motion passed with 4 to 0 vote. 9.F. REQUEST FOR DIRECTION REGARDING THE BEACH EQUIPMENT RENTAL BID: Provide direction concerning questions raised during the pre-bid meeting held on February 11, 2009 regarding the Beach Equipment Rental Invitation to Bid. Brian Shutt, Assistant City Attorney, stated on February 11, 2009, there was apre-bid meeting regarding the Beach Equipment Rental Invitation to Bid. Mr. Shutt stated in his memo there are some clarifications that were requested and staff has also addressed some of the clarifications. He stated one of the other issues that came from that meeting was a request to change the point system in order to do that the City would have to go out for re-bid. Mr. Shutt stated one of the other issues that he did not make a clarification on is under the "additional amenities". He stated Bob Taylor, Ocean Rescue Superintendent, checked with the Delray Beach Marriott to see what they were looking for and they wanted the ability to have their hotel guests to be able to charge the cabanas to the room. Mr. Shutt stated the proposed clarifications are in the addendum. -11- 03/03/09 Brief discussion between Linda Karch, Director of Parks and Recreation, and the City Commission followed. Ms. Karch stated the current vendor rates list shows whole day, by the hour, by the type of chair, seasonal memberships, yearly memberships and multi-day rate. Mr. Eliopoulos moved to approve the addendum and add the list of rate categories with the caveat that it can modified for the proposer to list other categories and rates, seconded by Mr. Fetzer. Upon roll call the Commission voted as follows: Mr. McDuffie -Yes; Mayor Ellis -Yes; Mr. Eliopoulos -Yes; Mr. Fetzer -Yes. Said motion passed with a 4 to 0 vote. At this point, the time being 7:03 p.m., the Commission moved to the duly advertised Public Hearings portion of the Agenda. 10. PUBLIC HEARINGS: 10.A. ORDINANCE NO. 06-09 (SECOND READING/SECOND PUBLIC HEARING): Consider an ordinance providing for the reclassification of nineteen (19) properties from non-contributing to contributing in the Marina Historic District. The caption of Ordinance No. 06-09 is as follows: office.) AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF DELRAY BEACH, FLORIDA, AMENDING THE LAND DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS OF THE CODE OF ORDINANCES, BY AMENDING SECTION 4.4.9, "GENERAL COMMERCIAL (GC) DISTRICT", SUBSECTION (G), "SUPPLEMENTAL DISTRICT REGULATIONS", AND SECTION 4.4.13, "CENTRAL BUSINESS (CBD) DISTRICT", SUBSECTION (G), "SUPPLEMENTAL DISTRICT REGULATIONS", SUB-SUBSECTION (1) "CENTRAL CORE AND BEACH AREA SUPPLEMENTAL REGULATIONS", TO CHANGE THE PARKING REQUIREMENTS FOR BUSINESS AND PROFESSIONAL OFFICES WITHIN CERTAIN PORTIONS OF THESE ZONING DISTRICTS; PROVIDING A SAVING CLAUSE, A GENERAL REPEALER CLAUSE, AND AN EFFECTNE DATE. (The official copy of Ordinance No. 06-09 is on file in the City Clerk's The City Attorney read the caption of the ordinance. A public hearing was held having been legally advertised in compliance with the laws of the State of Florida and the Charter of the City of Delray Beach, Florida. -12- 03/03/09 Paul Dorling, Director of Planning and Zoning, stated this ordinance reclassifies 19 properties from non-contributing to contributing in the Marina Historic District and corresponds with the report and the survey that recommended extending the period of significance. Mr. Dorling stated these 19 properties are now eligible for this reclassification. At its meeting of February 17, 2009, the Historic Preservation Board (HPB) was presented with two versions of the ordinance and actually considered 21 properties. Mr. Dorling stated on the Agenda this evening there is a request to reconfigure this district and eliminate those properties so staff felt it was prudent at this time to not classify them as contributing and then take them out of the district in the next action. Therefore, this includes the 19 properties versus the 21 properties. Mr. Dorling stated if for some reason the Commission would not support the reconfiguration of that boundary, then staff would add those two properties at a later date. Staff recommends approval as did the Historic Preservation Board at their meeting of February 17, 2009. Mayor Ellis declared the public hearing open. There being no one from the public who wished to address the Commission regarding Ordinance No. 06-09, the public hearing was closed. Mr. Eliopoulos moved to adopt Ordinance No. 06-09 on Second and FINAL Reading, seconded by Mr. McDuffie. Upon roll call the Commission voted as follows: Mayor Ellis -Yes; Mr. Eliopoulos -Yes; Mr. Fetzer -Yes; Mr. McDuffie - Yes. Said motion passed with a 4 to 0 vote. 10.B. ORDINANCE NO. 07-09 (SECOND READING/SECOND PUBLIC HEARING): A city initiated amendment to the Land Development Regulations (LDR) Section 4.4.9(G), "Supplemental District Regulations", and Section 4.4.13(G)(1), "Central Core and Beach Area Supplemental Regulations", to change the parking requirements for business and professional offices within certain portions of these zoning districts. The caption of Ordinance No. 07-09 is as follows: AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF DELRAY BEACH, FLORIDA, AMENDING THE LAND DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS OF THE CODE OF ORDINANCES, BY AMENDING SECTION 4.4.9, "GENERAL COMMERCIAL (GC) DISTRICT", SUBSECTION (G), "SUPPLEMENTAL DISTRICT REGULATIONS", AND SECTION 4.4.13, "CENTRAL BUSINESS (CBD) DISTRICT", SUBSECTION (G), "SUPPLEMENTAL DISTRICT REGULATIONS", SUB-SUBSECTION (1) "CENTRAL CORE AND BEACH AREA SUPPLEMENTAL REGULATIONS", TO CHANGE THE PARKING REQUIREMENTS FOR BUSINESS -13- 03/03/09 AND PROFESSIONAL OFFICES WITHIN CERTAIN PORTIONS OF THESE ZONING DISTRICTS; PROVIDING A SAVING CLAUSE, A GENERAL REPEALER CLAUSE, AND AN EFFECTNE DATE. (The official copy of Ordinance No. 07-09 is on file in the City Clerk's office.) The City Attorney read the caption of the ordinance. A public hearing was held having been legally advertised in compliance with the laws of the State of Florida and the Charter of the City of Delray Beach, Florida. Paul Dorling, Director of Planning and Zoning, stated this is second reading on an amendment to both the GC (General Commercial) and the CBD (Central Business District) sections of the LDRs. Mr. Dorling stated this modifies the parking requirements for the areas shown on the overhead and allows a reduced parking rate similar to the reduced parking rate which the CBD two blocks north and south of Atlantic Avenue enjoys. He stated this is one of the recommendations of the Chamber of Commerce Economic Development Committee with the goal of promoting Class A office in town. Mr. Dorling stated the parking reduction would go from the required 3.5 and 4 spaces per 1,000 to 1 per 300. That would be further reduced by the amendment the Commission approved previously that talks about assessing net versus gross area in office buildings so that you do not have to provide parking for lobbies and bathrooms. At its meeting of February 24, 2009, the Parking Management Advisory Board (PMAB) considered this ordinance and recommended approval of this modification. Mayor Ellis declared the public hearing open. There being no one from the public who wished to address the Commission regarding Ordinance No. 07-09, the public hearing was closed. Mr. Eliopoulos moved to adopt Ordinance No. 07-09 on Second and FINAL Reading, seconded by Mr. Fetzer. Upon roll call the Commission voted as follows: Mr. Eliopoulos -Yes; Mr. Fetzer -Yes; Mr. McDuffie -Yes; Mayor Ellis - Yes. Said motion passed with a 4 to 0 vote. At this point, the time being 7:03 p.m., the Commission moved to Item 11, Comments and Inquiries on Non-Agenda Items from the City Manager and the Public. 11.A. City Manager's resuonse to urior uublic comments and inquiries. The City Manager stated at the last two meetings Mr. MacNamee raised questions about the garbage franchise and the service given in the beach area and provided the City Commission with an extensive report. The City Manager stated he responded to Mr. MacNamee's concerns via a letter with exhibits. -14- 03/03/09 Mr. Eliopoulos suggested that this be a Workshop item and that the Beach Property Owners (BPOA) be invited to the meeting. He stated it would be informative for the new Commission to understand what has been done. Mr. Eliopoulos stated there were a lot of items that were brought up and believes staff has responded to them but he does think that there is some additional information that needs to be available. Mr. Fetzer asked if staff has heard from Mr. MacNamee after the City Manager sent him the latest response. The City Manager stated Mr. MacNamee asked for and received a register of all the customers on the barrier island and the beach area and he has been contacting those customers trying to verify whether or not everything in the register was accurate. The City Manager stated Mr. MacNamee contacted a couple different staff members saying that he had found some inaccuracies but did not disclose any details. Mr. McDuffie asked if there is a fuel index in there as well. The City Manager stated there is a fuel index and the pricing will change next fiscal year based on fuel costs. Mr. McDuffie stated what we should see is a decline because fuel was nearly twice as much when the contract was negotiated. The City Manager reminded the Commission that the fuel is diesel so it has not gone down as much as gasoline has. It was the consensus of the Commission to have the City Manager to move forward with this. The City Manager stated this will be scheduled for the April Workshop Meeting once the new Commission is seated. Secondly, with regard to a concern expressed by Mr. Kuhn over the loss of parking around the VFW, the City Manager stated the dumpster that was on the east side of 2nd Avenue is gone. There are four available parallel parking spaces on the east side of 2nd Avenue in front of the VFW and two parallel parking spaces on the west side. The City Manager stated none of these are designated as handicapped spaces. The two spaces on the west side are reserved for the valet after 5:00 p.m. per the valet agreement. The parking that was in Worthing Park was replaced by what is in the Federspiel Garage with the intent of providing more space to the public. He stated that does have four handicapped spaces on the first floor but it is a block away from the VFW. The City Manager stated Mrs. Finst had raised questions about some of the City's revenue projections that were in the Annual Report. He stated general building permits may be down but the overall permit revenue is at 25% at the end of the first quarter. The City Manager stated the City still expects to make its year-end estimate for overall permit revenue based on projects in the pipeline. He stated this is one of the things that Mrs. Butler looks at in developing revenue estimates. The City knows what projects are being planned and when they think they will be coming in for permits. The City Manager stated things like plumbing and air conditioning are well above 25% and noted that they are in the 35-40% range so far. With regard to parking revenue, the City Manager stated that the meter charges were increased from seventy-five cents to $1.00 per hour (one-third increase) and also last year's revenue was artificially depressed due to construction on A-1-A and the process of acquiring and installing new parking meters. -15- 03/03/09 Staff believes that they will meet their projections on parking revenue. With regard to fines and forfeitures, the City Manager stated the City has reinstituted parking enforcement on the weekends and that will bring in some additional fines. Also, the City Manager stated the City received some revenue from the County this year that we really should have received last year. He stated the County is still working to try to sort out what we are supposed to get versus what we have actually gotten. The City Manager stated the City continues to work with the County to determine why our fine revenue has declined and believes that we will receive additional payments from them. He stated if we do not, the City could get as much as a $200,000.00 shortfall in that category. With regard to franchise fees, the City Manager reiterated that the City is at 25% at the end of the first quarter. However, the City Manager stated the City could have a shortfall of as much as $100,000.00 in this category because when staff does the budget estimates Florida Power & Light (FPL) was projecting a 15% rate increase but they will only be increasing rates by 8%. The City Manager stated at this point staff is projecting a $1,000,000.00 shortfall overall in the budget and the City is taking steps to be sure to close this gap. 11. From the Public. 11.B.1. Commander Robert Kuhn, 531 N.W. 13th Street, Delray Beach, current Commander of Veterans of Foreign Wars at Post 4141 chartered in this city on June 21, 1945 and a resident of the City of Delray Beach since 1979, VFW Post in Delray Beach, asked for clarification regarding the City Manager's comments about the parking and inquired if they are going to see any relief with the handicapped spaces. The City Manager stated the closest handicapped parking space is about one block away which is not what the VFW needs for handicapped parking. Mr. Kuhn stated the VFW is looking for some temporary help because of what is going on in the vicinity right now. The City Manager stated he will have the City Engineer get in touch with Mr. Kuhn and staff will work something out. 11.B.2. David Hawke, 121 Heather Lane, Delray Beach (Code Enforcement Chair stated the Code Enforcement Board has a number of code cases that have become before the Board where the homeowners have hardships (i.e. unemployment and single parents) and the properties have accumulated liens in excess of $10,000-$12,000 and have sat in bad condition for a number of months. Mr. Hawke asked for recommendations from City staff or the Commission on where the Code Enforcement Board can advise these people to go to for help. He stated there is a Workshop Meeting in April and noted that if Doug Smith, Assistant City Manager, or Jennifer Costello, Neighborhood Planner would like to attend then he will have this on the Agenda as a discussion item. Mr. McDuffie suggested that Mr. Hawke contact Mrs. Butler and noted that Jennifer Costello, Neighborhood Planner may also be able to help. -16- 03/03/09 Mr. Eliopoulos stated there are a lot of issues with properties that Code Enforcement is going to be dealing with and the City is going to have to look at and see how we want to deal with it and how these properties should be up kept because he does not feel this is going away anytime soon. Mayor Ellis asked if Mr. Hawke is talking about one individual Mr. Hawke stated this is a massing of more cases, larger fines, more times where we are months and years without any action. He stated in some cases it is sometimes just a simple coat of paint, some cases it is commercial properties that have not started construction, and a variety of economic things. Mr. Hawke stated the Code Enforcement Board is trying to address the single family houses so that they can keep the neighborhoods more stable. Mayor Ellis asked what the Board has done in the past. Mr. Hawke stated the Code Enforcement Board has tried to direct them to Community Relations or Boot Strap or Paint up Delray. Mayor Ellis stated she noticed that Mr. MacNamee came in and was sitting next to Mr. Hawke and she informed Mr. MacNamee that his item came up for discussion before he arrived to the meeting. Mayor Ellis informed Mr. MacNamee that the Commission did discuss this and felt it would be best to pursue a Workshop Meeting (Tuesday, April 14, 2009) and review the garbage rates and how the City got to where it is now and what other options we may want to pursue. At this point, the time being 7:32 p.m., the Commission moved to Item 12, First Readings. 12. FIRST READINGS: 12.A. ORDINANCE NO. 10-09: Consider an ordinance which modifies the Marina Historic District boundaries to remove twelve (12) properties as recommended by the Marina Historic District resurvey.

(The official copy of Ordinance No. 10-09 is on file in the City Clerk's office.) The City Attorney read the caption of the ordinance. For the record, Commissioner Eliopoulos stated in the past he has always stepped down on this item because there was a house in that section that he was the architect for; however, the project has been dissolved and he received a letter in January 2009 to stop this project. Paul Dorling, Director of Planning and Zoning, stated this ordinance modifies the Marina Historic district boundaries resulting of the removal of 12 properties. The recommendation is to modify the legal description in he LDR's to remove these 12 properties. This was a result of a survey which was conducted by GAI Consultants of the Marina District and that report included a recommendation that the district boundaries be amended because this area had been adversely affected by the scale of new construction along the Intracoastal. At its meeting of February 18, 2009, the Historic Preservation Board (HPB) considered this item and the Board voted 5 to 0 to recommend approval. At its meeting of February 23, 2009, the Planning and Zoning Board considered this item and the Board voted 7 to 0 for the re-describing of this district for removing these properties. Staff recommends approval. Mr. Fetzer moved to approve Ordinance No. 10-09 on FIRST Reading, seconded by Mr. McDuffie.

Upon roll call the Commission voted as follows: Mr. McDuffie -Yes; Mayor Ellis -Yes; Mr. Eliopoulos -Yes; Mr. Fetzer -Yes. Said motion passed with a 4 to 0 vote.

The City Manager stated the City has used Langton Associates, Inc. for numerous years for grant writing services and did not renew the contract with them this year because of budget constraints, etc. He stated the City is now in a different situation where we have the stimulus bill with numerous programs to which might apply. The City Manager stated there is a very tight timeframe to get applications in and he does not believe that City staff can get all the applications done that we would have the opportunity to submit within those timeframes.

The -20- 03/03/09 City Manager stated the Palm Beach County School Board will consider the lease agreement at their Board meeting of March 18, 2009 and that it be before the City Commission at their first meeting in April. 13.B. City Attorney The City Attorney had no comments or inquiries on non-agenda items. 13.C. City Commission 13.C.1. Mr. Fetzer Mr. Eliopoulos stated this afternoon he met with Usher Brown the Attorney who is doing the Bond investigation and he has been through the 17,000 pages of documentation and is now in the process of interviewing various people. Mr. Fetzer stated Mr. Brown interviewed City staff today and will be doing interviews tomorrow as well. He is going to be talking to our financial advisor and also our bond attorney. Mr. Fetzer stated he and Mr. Brown talked about trying to schedule a special meeting to get his feedback. Mr. Fetzer stated he has asked for a complete written report on his findings and recommendations and also for him to give the Commission a verbal overview of the report and give the Commission the opportunity to ask questions. Mr. Fetzer stated he has also requested that Mr. Brown provide a written report approximately 3-4 days before the Commission meets with him. It was the consensus of the Commission to hold a Special Meeting on Monday, March 23, 2009 at 5:00 p.m. with Mr. Usher Brown for feedback. Mr. Fetzer stated he will ask Mr. Brown to provide the written material to the Commission as soon as he can. Mr. Fetzer stated if everything is not settled on March 23, 2009 then there is a possibility that the Commission may have to meet on Wednesday, March 25, 2009 as well. Secondly, Mr. Fetzer stated he had a meeting with the Beach Property Owners Association (BPOA) with Chief James and Chief Stravino to talk about the staffing of Fire Station #2. He stated he met earlier in the week with both of them and went over the staffing plan on Fire Station #2 and they are recommending a modified approach to the way that this is being handled. Mr. Fetzer stated after going through this proposal with them and based on our current financial situation he feels it make sense. Mr. Fetzer stated this is a temporary proposal because ultimately we want to staff that station like the other stations. He stated this gives the City an ability to solve some of the safety issues related to this and do that on a temporary basis. Mr. Fetzer stated there is an education process that the City will have to go through particularly with the BPOA and the people who are within Fire Station #2 and make them understand what the City is proposing. Mr. Fetzer stated he does not see a significant impact on service to residents of that area and he does see a big improvement in the safety issues. Mr. Fetzer stated the BPOA has a membership meeting on March 19, 2009 and Chief James will be there to explain and communicate to as many people as possible specifically what they are -21 - 03/03/09 proposing on the staffing. The City Manager stated this would need to come back to the Commission because it has financial implications to the City and it also has a lot of implications on perceptions of service to our residents particularly the beach area. Mr. Fetzer stated the tennis event was great this weekend and the event promotes the downtown area very well. 13.C.2. Mr. Eliououlos Mr. Eliopoulos commented about an email from David Clowney N (Jets player) and stated he wants to have a development program at Seacrest. The City Manager stated Linda Karch responded to Mr. Clowney's email today. Mr. Eliopoulos stated it could be a real great program and hopes that the City will look into it. He stated he is not sure if there are any costs associated with this or if he is actually bringing in NFL players to help out and work on one of the City's fields. Secondly, he asked about the towing contract. The City Manager stated Brian Shutt, Assistant City Attorney, gave a very comprehensive response to that via email. The City Manager stated it is a different corporate entity and what they are hauling is construction equipment (i.e. tract vehicles that are not defined as vehicles under the towing contract) and explains the definition of a vehicle. 13.C.3. Mr. McDuflie Mr. McDuffie stated he attended the African Diaspora at the Convention Center and noted that it was incredible, very well done, and the crowd size was enormous. He stated one of the dance groups (Diamonds & Pearls) from Delray Beach received one of the awards. Secondly, he stated he too received some early information on the towing issue and suggested that the Commission review this and see if there is some substance there that may need to be researched. Mr. McDuffie commented about Earth Hour 2009 and explained that this is an hour around the globe on March 28, 2009 from 8:30 a.m. - 9:30 p.m. where everyone turns off the lights.

ITEM BEFORE COMMISSION Service Authorization #07-08.2 to Mathews Consulting, Inc. in the amount of $12,843.00 for professional engineering services in the design of Area 11A Reclaimed Water System project, P/N 2008-048. BACKGROUND In September 2008, City Commission approved services by Mathews Consulting, Inc. for providing final engineering design, surveying, geotechnical services, field verifications of existing utilities, permitting, and bidding services required in preparing bid packages for the Area 11A Reclaimed Water Transmission and Distribution system and for the Reclaimed Water Booster Pump Station projects. Total cost for the services was $249,831.00. To meet the project completion deadline for grant reimbursement, the transmission system portion of the project also needed to be subdivided. In January 2009, the City Manager approved Amendment #1 (Service Authorization 8.1) in the amount of $11,115 for reformatting the Reclaimed Water Transmission/Distribution system contract into two separate construction documents; one for the transmission system from the Booster Station to the west side of the Intracoastal (Contract 2) and another for the transmission system from the east side of the Intracoastal to Beach Drive (Contract 3). Under Contract 3, after the pipe line alignment was finalized by the design team, numerous underground conflict locations were identified along the pipe route. These locations needed to be pot- holed to confirm horizontal and vertical locations of the utility conflicts. The consultant estimated 20 pot-hole locations in their original proposal, however, analysis of the final pipe route revealed 39 additional locations requiring digs. The consultant was informed of the City's process in authorizing this expense prior to proceeding with this work. To maintain the project on schedule, the consultant elected to have this work performed at the risk of not being approved. These soft-digs were required to complete the design and to keep the project on fast-track to bidding (advertised March 8~'). The cost for the 39 additional soft digs is in the amount of $12,843.00. With this authorization, total cost of services is at $273,789.00. FUNDING SOURCE Funding is available from account #441-5181-536-65.96, Water & Sewer Fund/Reclaimed Water Transmission.

BACKGROUND The Area 11A Reclaimed Water Transmission and Distribution System project was divided into two separate construction documents to meet the project completion deadline for grant reimbursement. One contract was established for the transmission system from the Booster Station to the west side of the Intracoastal (Contract 2) and another for the transmission and distribution system on the east side of the Intracoastal to Beach Drive (Contract 3). The Booster Pump Station Conversion is Contract 1. Contract 2 will involve substantial directional drill activities (60% of work) crossing the Federal Highways to the Intracoastal. Contract 3 on the Barrier Island will be a physically difficult construction environment due to the high water table and undesirable soil conditions (soil borings indicate significant amount of muck). These conditions require specialty inspections and design engineer certifications. This authorization (Service Authorization No. 07-10) is for construction management services during the construction of the transmission and distribution piping system. The scope of services includes attending monthly progress meetings, review of shop drawings, limited field observation and inspections verifying pipe installations, providing clarifications on construction documents, providing closeout certifications to outside agencies, and review of final as-built drawings and daily logs.

I£OPELDI3SOS SECRETARY February 18, 2009 Mr. David T. Harden City of Delray Beach, Manager 100 Northwest 1st Avenue Delray Beach, FL 33444 Dear Mr. David T. Harden: RECEIV'~D~ FEB 2 4 2009 C17Y MANAG~I~ SUBJECT: Invitation to become a Participating Agency on Phase 2 of the South Florida East Coast Corridor Transit Analysis (SFECCTA) The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) has initiated Phase 2 of the SFECCTA study. FDOT is continuing the study using the early scoping National Environmental Protection Act (NEPA) process. Phase 2 will produce a detailed environmental screening report addressing the short list of alternatives that evolved from the Phase 1 screening, and will identify one or more proposed actions in the 85-mile study corridor. Phase 3 of the study will then prepare one or more draft environmental impact statements depending on the number of proposed actions defined in Phase 2. We wish to invite your agency to participate in a cooperating agency role for this phase of the study. The SFECCTA was initiated by FDOT to provide improved passenger transportation service to southeast Florida. The study area extends approximately 85 miles along the Florida East Coast (FEC) Railway corridor from Miami's Central Business District in Miami-Dade County to the Town of Jupiter in Palm Beach County. The proposed project would be designed to provide an interface with other mass transit systems in the area and enhance the existing transportation network. During Phase 1 of the study a broad range of conceptual alternatives were considered, which included various transit technologies, corridor alignments, and station locations. The preliminary screening of these conceptual alternatives during Phase 1 did not identify a complete Locally Preferred Alternative {LPA). However, the study did identify a single generalised alignment (FEC Railway corridor) and five viable technology alternatives including regional rail, rapid rail, light rail, bus rapid transit, and regional bus to be carried into the detailed screening phase to be conducted in Fhase 2 of the study. A discussion of the alternatives analysis may be found in the Conceptual Alternatives Analysis/Environmental Screening Report (AAIESR) an the project website at http alwww. sfeccstudy.com/. ~n~ww. dot. state.fl .u s Mr. David T. Harden February 1 S, 2009 Page 2 Phase 2 of the SFECCTA will build upon the Phase 1 study to identify one or more LPA(s) within the project corridor. The study will examine modal technologies; bicycle/pedestrian trails (i.e., greenways); station locations and types; grade crossing issues; maintenance facility locations; interconnecting passenger services between the existing South Florida Rail Comdor (that is served by Tri-Rail Commuter Services and the FEC Railway corridor); costs; funding; ridership; economic development; land use; engineering feasibility; and environmental factors. To satisfy FTA'S New Starts (49 USC 5309) requirements, FDOT will also evaluate options for transportation improvements in the study area that do not involve significant capital investment including Transportation System Management (TSM) improvements and the implications of taking no action (i.e., the "no build" alternative). The environmental screening and AA conducted during Phase 2 will be documented in various technical memorandums and a Detailed AA/ESR. The FDOT has been identified your agency as an agency that may have an interest in the above- mentioned project. As such, FDOT is extending your agency an invitation to become a participating agency in the SFECCTA study. Pursuant to Section 6002 of Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act - A Legacy for Users (SAFETEA-LU), participating agencies are responsible for identifying, as early as practicable, any issues of concern regarding the project's potential environmental or socioeconomic impacts that could substantially delay or prevent an agency from granting a permit or other approval that is needed for the project. The following list outlines the minimum responsibilities of a participating agency as defined by SAFETEA-LU: • Provide meaningful and early input an refining the purpose and need, determining the range of alternatives to be considered, and the methodologies and level of detail required in the AA. • Participate in coordination meetings, conference calls, and joint field reviews as appropriate. • Timely review and comment on the pre-draft or pre-final environmental documents to reflect the views and concerns of your agency on the adequacy of the document, altematives considered, and the anticipated impacts and mitigation. Phase 2 of the SFECCTA will continue to follow the FDOT ETDM process and your agency is encouraged to engage in the ETDM system in an effort to improve decision-making and reduce the time, effort, and cost of project development, permitting, and design. The ETDM project number for the SFECCTA is 7519.

PROJECT SCHEDULE B. LIST OF COOPERATING AND PARTICIPATING AGENCIES C. AGENCY OUTREACH FLOWCHART D. COORDINATION ITEMS 1.Q PURPOSE OF THE GOORDINATION PLAN This Coordination Plan {CP) has been prepared as part of the environmental review process far Phase 2 of the Sauth Florida East Coast Corridor Transit Analysis (SFECCTA) as defined in Section 6002 of the Safe, Accountable, Flexible, EfFcient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users (P.L. 109-059} (SAFETEA-LU), codified as Section 139 of amended Chapter 1 of Title 23, United States Code {23 U.S.C. 139). The CP will identify the process by which the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) will solicit comments from and communicate information to cooperating' and participating agencies, the public and other interested governmental agencies. In addition, the CP clarifies participating agency roles and responsibilities, establishes time limits on review and comment periods for agencies and the public, and provides an avenue to identify and resolve issues of concern as early as is practicable during the environmental review process. Approximately 140 federal, state, and local agencies have been invited to participate in the environmental review process as participating or cooperating agencies. The CP for this project will be supplemented by a separate Public Involvement Plan (PIP). A current project schedule is included in Appendix A that provides an estimated timeline for coordination points (project milestones) including meetings, documents and review periods, timeframes for input, and identifies the organizations ar agencies to be involved at each coordination point. The schedule may be modified by the lead agency as the project progresses. Cooperating and participating agencies will typically be given 30 days from receipt of materials and documents to review and provide comments; a written reminder will be sent to reviewing agencies seven days prior to the end of the review period. An exception to this review period will be made for the draft Detailed Alternatives AnalysislEnvironmental Screening Report {AAIESR) which will have a 45-day review period. Review periods for materials and documents may be extended by 15 days for goad cause. Participating agencies requesting a time extension must do so in writing to FDOT no later than five days prior to the 30-day review period deadline. Documents distributed for review may be mailed to participating agencies via the postal service or submitted electronically. Each document, regardless of delivery method, will have a transmittal letter attached describing the review period and what input may be expected from the agency. The FDOT will assume support from those agencies from whom no response has been received at the end of the 30-day period. The most current version of the CP and all documentationlmaterials referenced in this CP will be maintained on the project website (http:/lwww.sfeccstudy.com}. However, the CP is intended to be a dynamic document that will be upda#ed periodically to reflect changes to the project schedule, feedback from agencies or the public, andlor any other relevant items that may change over the course of the project. ~ Because cooperating agencies are by definition participating agencies, but with a higher degree of responsibility and involvement in the environmental review process, references below to participating agencies include cooperating agencies unless otherwise noted. SFECCTA Coordination Plan 1 Notification of any changes or modifications to the CP andlor schedule will be made available to the public and participating agencies by means of the above referenced project website and through the FDOT Efficient Transportation Decision Making (ETDM) system, an interactive web-based interagency tool. All referenced documents, including the CP, will be made available to any interested stakeholders upon request. The following list identifies documents and events that will serve as coordination items ar "opportunities for involvement" during Phase 2 of the SFECCTA: Documents: • Early Scoping Notice publication in Federal Register and Florida Administrative Weekly • Alternatives Analysis Early Scoping Notice • Refinement of purpose and need (P&N) and goals and objectives {from Phase 1) • Environmental Screening Methodology Technical Memorandum • Identification and refinement of the range of alternatives (from Phase 1) • Detailed Alternatives AnalysislEnvironmental Screening Report Events: • Phase 2 Kick-off Meetings • Public Workshop • Public Hearing • Sectional Public Workshops 2.0 PROJECT BACKGROUND AND DESCRIPTION 2.1 Background The FDOT initiated the SFECCTA recognizing that the Florida East Coast (FEC) Railway is a unique transportation asset that should be evaluated and developed in the context of regional transportation issues, priorities and needs. The study area extends approximately $5 miles along the FEC Railway corridor from Miami's Central Business District (CBD) in Miami-Dade County to the Tawn of Jupiter in Palm Beach County. Due to the relatively large scale of the project, its inherent complexities, and the potential for early right-of-way acquisition and pra3ect development, a tiered Environmental Impact Statement process was initially began in July _2005. A Tier 1 Draft Programmatic Environmental Impact Statement (PETS) was prepared to evaluate a broad range of conceptual alternatives in the context of FDOTs ETDM process and the National Environmenta! Policy Act {NEPA) tiering process. In processing the Tier 7 Fina! PEIS, the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) and FDOT agreed that the form, substance, and eventual outcome of the process followed during Tier 1 were consistent with another recognized NEPA process -early scaping. Early scaping is a NEPA process that is particularly useful in situations where, as here, proposed action(s) or locally preferred alternative(s) (LPA) have not been identified and multiple transportation alternatives are under consideration in a broad corridor. As a result, the next step or phase of the study will proceed under the early Scoping -ETDM process. Si=~'GCTA Coordination Plan 2 .~ /~ • Preliminary analyses eliminated those modes that were clearly inferior in meeting the corridor transportation needs andlor had significant adverse environmental impacts. Examples of the eliminated modes included High Speed Rail, High Speed Ferry, Monorail, City Bus and Streetcar. Of the 20 modal technologies considered, nine were determined to be viable candidates for further consideration in Phase 2. The nine viable modal technologies may be grouped into five general categories: Bus Rapid Transit (BRT), Light Rail Transit (LRT}, Rapid Rail Transit {RRT) Regional Rail (RGR), and Regional Bus (RG8). 2.2.2 Phase 2 of the Study Phase 2 of the study proposes to evaluate modal technologies, transit station locations and alignments through areas characterized by heavily congested roadways and transit-dependent populations. The environmental screening and AA conducted during Phase 2 will be documented in various technical memoranda and culminate in a Detailed AA/ESR. At the conclusion of Phase 2, one or more LPAs will be recommended that may then be submitted to FTA for federal assistance in the form of New Starts funding as described in SAFETEA-LU. To satisfy the FTA New Starts requirements {49 USC 5309), FDOT will also evaluate options far transportation improvements in the study area that do not involve significant capital investment including Transportation System Management (TSM) improvements and the implications of taking no action {i.e., the "no build" alternative). i=figure 2 below summarizes the New Starts planning and development process. 2.2.3 Phase 3 of the Study Phase 3 of the study will refine the results of the Phase 2 corridor analysis and develop one or more detailed sub-corridor sectional LPAs and associated Draft Environmental Impact Statements (DEIS). Sub-dividing the corridor would allow individual sections to be advanced independently based vn local commitments to funding andlor a different level of "transit readiness" within the corridor. At this stage, the #echnical analysis and publiclagency involvement would be advanced to a level necessary to assist decision makers in reaching consensus regarding independent LPAs. The transportation potential of each section will also be investigated and evaluated independently, as well as in context with the longer range, regional 2035 corridor vision. 3.0 LEAD, COOPERATING AND PARTICIPATING AGENCIES 3.1 Lead Agency The Federal Transit Administration wil! continue to serve as the lead agency for the environmental review process of the SFECCTA. The lead agency is responsible for taking actions to facilitate the expeditious resolution of the environmental review process of all NEPA and ancillary documents. 3.2 Project Sponsor as Joint Lead Agency The Florida Department of Transportation, District IV is the local governmental agency acting as project sponsor and joint lead agency managing the SFECCTA study and the preparation of appropriate environmental documents consistent with FTA, NEPA, ETDM and FDOT project development processes. SFECCTA Coordination Plan 4 ~ ` • Assume, on request of the lead agency, responsibility for developing information and preparing environmental analyses including portions of the Detailed AAIESR for which the cooperating agency has special expertise. • Make available staff support at the lead agency's request to enhance the tatter's interdisciplinary capability. • Normally use awn funds. The lead agency shall, to the extent available funding permits, fund those major activities or analyses it requests from cooperating agencies. Potential lead agencies shall include such funding requirements in their budget requests. • Provide meaningful and early input on defining the P&N, determining the range of alternatives to be considered, and the methodologies and level of detail required in the AA. The U.S. Goast Guard and the Federal Railroad Administration served as cooperating agencies during Phase 1 of the SFECCTA. These agencies will receive letters confirming their role and responsibilities as Cooperating Agencies for the project at the commencement of Phase 2. The FDOT has identified four other federal agencies to invite to participate in the environmental review process as cooperating agencies during Phase 2 of the SFECCTA. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Federal Highway Administration, and Amtrak will receive letters of invitation to became cooperating agencies at the commencement of Phase 2. Table 1 in Appendix B lists agencies invited to become cooperating and participating agencies. 3.4 Participating Agency Participating agency is a new category of agencies created by SAFETEA-LU {Section 6002) to participate in the environmental review process for EISs. These agencies may be federal and non-federal governmental agencies and tribal governments that may have an interest in the project because of their jurisdictional authority, special expertise andlor statewide interest. Environmental Technical Advisory Team (ETAT) members, as defined in the FDOT ETDM Manual, generally meet the criteria for participating agencies as defined by SAFETEA-LU. As such, ETAT members from FDOT Districts IV and VI will be considered participating agencies and will receive a letter confirming their roles and responsibilities as participating agencies on the SFECCTA. In addition, county managers, city managers, and mayors within the study area will be invited to become participating agencies. Table 1 in Appendix B lists agencies invited to become cooperating and par#icipating agencies. The roles and responsibilities of participating agencies include, but may not be limited to the following: Participating in the NEPA process at the earliest possible time, particularly with regard to the development of the P8~N statement, range of alternatives, methodologies and the level of detail required in the analysis of alternatives, and the selection of the preferred alternative. SFECCTA Coordination Plan 6 • Identifying, as early as practicable, any issues of concern regarding the project's potentia! environmental or socioeconomic impacts. Participating agencies are allowed to participate in the issue resolution process. • Providing meaningful and timely input regarding unresolved issues. • Participating in the scoping process. • Reviewing and providing comment on the preliminary draft of the Detailed AAIESR. During the project, if new information indicates that an agency not previously requested to become a participating agency shows an interest in the project and has the appropriate authority, jurisdiction, and expertise, FDOT may extend an invitation to that agency to become a participating agency. 4.0 PHASE 2 PROJECT COORDINATION POINTSlMILESTONES 4.1 Alternatives Analysis Early Scoping Notice An AA Early Scoping Notice wil! be distributed by FDOT to federal, state, and local agencies, and other interested parties as a means to inform them of the proposed action to be taken during Phase 2. The AA Scoping Notice affords federal, state, and local agencies, as well as tribal representatives the opportunity to become involved early in the continuation of the Early Scoping - ETDM process (Phase 2 of the SFECCTA} and provide further inputlcomments to FDOT regarding the proposed action and the geographic area potentially impacted by the project. The AA Scoping Notice package, generally, provides an overview of the proposed project, environmental screening approach, and potential environmental issues. Comments on the AA Scoping Notice may be submitted to FDOT in writing or electronically through the project website. 4.2 Early Scoping Notice The FDOT Early Scoping notice, as required by the Council on Environmental Quality (CEQ) regulations 40 CFR 1501.7, was published in the Federal Register on January 13, 2009 and in the Florida Administrative Weekly on January 16, 2009. The FDOT issued this notice to advise governmental agencies, the public and other interested stakeholders of FDOTs intent to continue the early scoping and planning-level NEPA/ETDM process previously initiated for the SFECCTA study. 4.3 Refinement of the Purpose and Need Statement and Identification of a Locally Preferred Alternative{s) Upon initiation of Phase 2 of the study, the project's P&N statement and goals and objectives will be refned by FDOT. The updated P8~N statement will include a listing of the transportation challenges in the corridor along with the corresponding goals and objectives. Participating agencies and the public will be afforded the opportunity to review and comment on the P&N statement as well as the project's goal and objectives (see Appendix D). SFECCTA Coordination Plan 7 A range of preliminary alternatives, from which a corridor system LPA will be recommended, will also be made available to all participating agencies and the public for their input (see Appendix D). Phase 2 of the study will focus on a regional alignment (including north end extension and east-west connectionslalignments), modal technologies, passenger station and maintenance facility areas, initial transitway-highway grade crossing treatments, conceptual transitway-waterway crossing structures, and a conceptual stormwater management system for the corridor. Involvement opportunities for the refinement of the P&N and the selection of the Phase 2 LPA will be concurrent. Consideration will be given to public and agency input prior to incorporating the P8~N statement into the Detailed AAIESR. Specific feedbacklinput that will be sought from the participating agencies include the following issues: • Refinement of the P&N statement • Refinement of the project goals and objectives • Refinements to the range of alternatives • Evaluation process and criteria for AA • Specific resource issues • Additional conceptual solutions that should be considered • Modifications to proposed conceptual solutions • The project study area or termini • Any additional key information (i.e., environmental resources and issues of concern) Once a decision has been reached on the P&.N statement, goals and objectives, and range of alternatives, FDOT will document and share this information with participating agencies and the public. in addition, FDOT will detail the considerations taken in arriving at those decisions to ensure that any disputes are identified as early in the process as possible. 4.4 Environmental Screening Analysis Methodology and level of Detail In collaboration with participating agencies, FDOT will determine the appropriate methodology to be applied and the level of detail required to perform the Phase 2 environmental screening and alternatives analysis. Project methodologies to assess environmental impacts associated with the proposed project will be described in an Environments! Screening Analysis Methodology Technical Memorandum. A draft of the methodology memorandum will be provided to participating agencies for their input. The FDOT will consider the views of participating agencies with relevant interests before making a decision on a particular methodology andlor the level of detail applied in the analysis. Participating agencies suggesting modifications to the proposed methodology should describe the alternate methodology that it prefers and skate the reasons}far the suggested modifications. The initial methodology will be developed during the scoping and P8~N development, and further refined as agency collaboration continues, and after an initial impact analysis has been performed- Should FDOT revise a methodology for reasons other than to respond to the concerns of a participating agency, #hen the collaboration process will be reestablished with interested agencies prior to any revisions. SFECC7"A Coardinafivn Pian g The FDOTs decisions on methodologies and the level of detail and their considerations in making those decisions will be documented and shared with participating agencies, in writing, to ensure that any disputes are identified as early in the process as possible. 4.5 Environmental Resources Technical Memoranda The following technical memoranda will be prepared throughout Phase 2 of the study to address specific resource analysis. • Conceptual Relocation Analysis Technical Memorandum • Cultural Resources Reconnaissance Survey • Programmatic Memorandum of Agreement • Noise and Vibration Genera! Assessment Technical Memorandum These analyses will only achieve the level of detail necessary to guide decisions at a regional level. The approach to these technical memoranda will have been detailed in the Environmental Screening Analysis Methodology Technical Memorandum described in the previous section. The results of these documents will serve as the regional environmental analyses for direct, as well as for indirect and cumulative effects (ICE), as applicable, and will be included by reference in the Detailed AAIESR. Participating agencies wishing to review any or all of the technical memoranda may do so upon request or on the project website. 4.6 Draft Detailed Alternative Analysisll=nvironmental Screening Report Phase 2 of the study will conclude with the preparation of the Detailed AAiESR. This document will be structured similarly to an environmental impact statement and it will contain the results of the various technical memorandums prepared during the course of Phase 2, as well as all other resource analysis conducted during the regional phase of the project. The Phase 2 environmental analysis process will focus primarily on the following four areas: • East-West {FEC Railway-South Florida Rail Corridor) connection alternatives, • North-end extension alignments, • Mode-specific regional alternatives, • Operations and maintenance (O&M) facilities and station locationsltypes. These environmental analyses will later be incorporated into the sectional documents during Phase 3 of the study. The Detailed AAIESR will be circulated to all participating agencies for their input and will be made available for public review a minimum of 21 days in advance of the public hearing, at the public hearing, and for a minimum of 10 days following the public hearing and for no less than 45-days total. SFECCTA Coordination Plan 9 The input for this coordination point/mifestone should include: comments on the adequacy of the document; and whether additional information would be needed to fulfill other applicable environmental reviews or consultation requirements. 5.0 ISSUES RESOLUTION PROCESS Issues resolution will be carried out in accordance with 23 USC Section 139(h). The FDOT and participating agencies shall work cooperatively in accordance with this section to identify and resolve issues that could delay completion of the environmental review process or could result in denial of any approvals required for the project under applicable laws. In addition, the ETAT Dispute Resolution Process for all ETAT members will also be followed. The ETAT Informal and Formal Dispute Resolution Processes are described in Chapter 5 of the ETDM Planning and Programming Manual {http.llwww.dot.state,fl.us/emalpubs/etdm/etdmmanual shtm). The FDOT and participating agencies shall identify, as early as practicable, any issues of concern regarding the project's potential environmental or socioeconomic impacts. Issues of concern include any issues that could substantially delay or prevent the granting of a permit or other approval that is needed for the project. The following issues resolution process will be followed by non-ETAT members: • Meetings will be held as needed during the course of the NEPA process to discuss and resolve issues. • if issues are not being resolved in a timely manner: 1. An ofFcial issues resolution meeting will be scheduled. 2.

The existing and proposed highway capacity network within the SFECCTA corridor will not be able to accommodate the travel demand market evident and projected in this north-south corridor. Due to highway capacity constraints, commuting times in the region are expected to triple over the year 2000 levels by the year 2020. Therefore, regional, premium, "fixed guideway" transit system improvements are needed along the 5FECCTA corridor, generally defined by the alignment of the FEC Railway, to improve mobility and reduce delay between the CBDs, major economic centers, transportation hubs and residential communities. The SFECCTA study and Transit Feasibility/AA will identify alternate modes of transportation focused on providing increased capacity for passenger mobility as well as addressing the anticipated increase in travel demand along this highly urbanized, traffic congested eastern portion of Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach Counties, Florida." The purpose of the proposed action is to develop a reliable, predictable and integrated system of passenger transit service to link the region's CBDs, airports, seaports, and major travel generators such as regional hospitals, entertainment districts, employment centers, and colleges/universities. Such a system would enhance the area's transit network by interfacing with existing mass transit services within the tri-county area. The need for the proposed action is as follows; Meet the demand for transportation services and mobility • The highest level of highway congestion in the tri- county area is concentrated east of 1-95 along the study corridor. Interstate-95 and US-1 are the only two continuous north-south roadways in the corridor and both experience severe congestion throughout the day. A reliable transit alternative is needed in the area to relieve north-south travel congestion. the major north-south highways, particularly during the peak hours where 70% of the roadways in the study area are operating at LOS D, E or F and 31% are at LOS F. Increasing highway capacity to alleviate congestion is impractical due to high infrastructure cost, limited availability of right-of--way, community and environmental impacts. The FEC Railway corridor is the last remaining transportation corridor in the area with underutilized capacity. Additionally, the FEC Railway corridor is most likely to fulfill the transportation needs in the area with less impact to the surrounding communities and environment compared to roadway corridors. • The area's highest concentration of highway trip producers and attractors are along, and frequently within walking distance of, the FEC Railway corridor. For example, an Origin/Destination bus survey of 19 north-south routes indicated that 2D% of the riders, on 1 D of the routes, had an origin and destination within 1/z mile of the FEC Railway and over 50% of the riders on 15 of the routes had an origin or destination within '/z miles of the FEC Railway. A similar survey of auto users along 1-95 revealed that over 33% of surveyed auto users had an origin or destination within'/z mile of the FEC Railway_ • The greatest existing and forecast {2030} employment and population densities in the region are currently located within the study corridor. Approximately 20% of the tri-county area's population is located within the study area and approximately 27% is employed within the study area. Transit service in this study area is needed to service bath the population and employment growth in the region. Meet system linkage needs Tri-Rail currently does not provide a direct link to major employment and population centers, therefore access to these centers requires a transfer to another transit mode. The average north-south trip length within the SFECCTA study area is approximately 20 miles. • The existing Level of Service (LOS) is poor along ~~~~~~. A need exists for passenger service along the FEC Railway to link employment centers and expand t he existing transit service network by providing multiple service opportunities for differing trip lengths. • The proposed FEC Railway improvements could link passenger transit service to the SFRC/CSXT Railway. It is anticipated that freight service will continue to operate as it currently does. Meet the social demands and economic development opportunities in South Florida • The study area, most notably within Miami-Dade and Broward Counties, has a Large transit- dependent population. The existing transportation system is limited in offering these individuals convenient access to employment, medical, educational and other social/cultural centers due to a discontinuous transit network. • Community Redevelopment Areas, Enterprise Zones, and Empowerment Zones are programs; created by governments, designed to encourage development/redevelopment and investment opportunities in economically depressed communities suffering from blighted conditions, low productivity, as well as limited business and employment opportunities. The proposed project would support these efforts and further encourage development near transit stations within the study area consistent with these program goals. • New premium transit service would provide a safer mode of travel within the study area compared to highway or automobile travel. PROJECT GOALS & OBJECTIVES (see next page) CONCEPTUAL ALTERNATIVES Due to increasing highway capacity constraints throughout South Florida other mobility options, such as premium transit, must be considered. Examples of premium transit services are those such as Tri-Rail, Miami-Dade's Metrorail, light rail transit, and bus rapid transit. The FEC Railway corridor presents a unique opportunity to develop and implement a regional passenger transportation service within an existing right-of--way. San Diego, Saint Louis, Washington, D.C., Houston, Baltimore, and Salt Lake City are among the cities across the nation that have examined the use of exist- ing rail corridors and parallel streets for developing new premium transit service corridors. This concept has already been applied in South Florida with the acquisition of portions of the former CSX Railroad, now the South Florida Rail Corridor (SFRC) used by Tri-Rail. For Phase 2 of the study, alternatives will generally be made up of various components or elements. These include: service plans; north/south alignment {including east/west connections); modal technology; transit stations, and grade crossings. The decision on the type of technology may be based on the varying characteristics of each technology, including capac- ity, the desires of the community; and the available alignments. Additional criteria to consider when choosing a technology are capital cost, operating costs, service distance, station spacing, service fre- quency, power source, speeds, right-of--way require- ments, vehicle life, accessibility, maneuverability, integration with other transportation modes, and flexibility. In addition, methods of avoiding or mini- mizing environmental and community impacts will be incorporated into the alternatives evaluation proc- ess. The decision relating to the location of the ser- vice depends on right-of--way availability, adjacent land uses, future freight demand and capacity for pas- senger service, and others. Service Pian Service Planning is the process by which transit de- mand is matched with supply in the form of routes, vehicles, capacity, frequencies, speed and span of ser- vice. The four main tasks of service planning for the SFECCTA study are: • Establish routes that match people's desired travel patterns. • Consider interconnectivity between the FEC corri- dor and Tri-Rail for optimal use of existing infra- structure. Create an operating plan including express and local service to balance travel time and accessibility to ad- jacent communities. • Determine a modal technology that best meets pro- jected demand (see Modal Technology discussion for alternatives being considered}. ~ ~,_, ,Page 2 PROJECT GOALS AND OBJECTIVES + Expand transit options to accommodate future travel demand in the corridor and serve major transportation hubs, employment, medical, retail, educational, and entertainment centers, and residents in the region. • Provide regional transit options that improve travel time reliability for people and goods and results in travel time savings, Integrate the proposed transit options with existing and planned transit in the region. • Integrate the proposed transit options with existing and planned freight transport and potentially intercity passenger transport located within or traversing the study area. • Provide for seamless connections to ail modes of transportation including bicycle and pedestrian facilities. • Provide regional access and mobility improvements for minority, transportation disadvantaged and low income groups. • Support goods movement in the corridorwith higher capacity and connectivity. • Invest in infrastructure, facilities and services that improve connectivity, transfer and circulation in the region. • Coordinate and integrate with other regional rail, mass transit, and roadway projects. • Maintain working relationships with transportation partners, including the FTA, FDOT, Regional Transportation Authority, MPOs, Counties, Cities, Regional Planning Councils, Business Groups, Rorida East Coast Industries, and other stakeholders. • Avoid or minimize duplication of premium transportation services, • Coordinate with other transportation and land use planning efforts that are supportive of transit options. • Accommodate a proposed greenway along the corridor. • Locate transit stations where higher density development exists or can readily be accommodated and near activity centers. • Complement and support economic development/redevelopment and potential joint development activities that include a mix of uses and afford- able housing, within the study area. • Establish a transit improvement that will contribute, guide and support the urban, transit-0riented scale envisioned for the various dowmtovms, commercial corridors and abutting residential areas. • Facilitate creation oftransit-supportive and context sensitive development guidelines, zoning and policies. • Provide transit that complements the scale and character of neighborhoods, housing, and business developments. • Minimize or mitigate adverse Local traffic, parking and safety impacts. + Minimize ar mitigate adverse noise and vibration impacts. • Avoid or minimize adverse impacts to minority and low income communities. • Minimize adverse right-of--way and physical impacts to established communi#ies and businesses. • Optimize the use of existing infrastructure and transportation corridors for expansion of transit. •. ~ ~ • Minimize or mitigate adverse impacts to existing environmental reseurces. + Preserve historical and cultural resources. • Provide transit options that reduce traffic congestion and energy consumption, • Protect environmentally sensitive areas. • Improve regional air quality by promoting alternative transportation modes and reducing auto emissions. ~ Provide new transit service that is financially feasible with existing and new revenue sources. • Meet FTA goals as they relate to cost effectiveness. • Ensure that the investment strategy for the corridor will be eligible to receive Federal funding. • Optimize transportation funding resources and obtain local financial support. + Explore lower technology cost solutions, where applicable, that can be upgraded aver time to a higher transit technology solution based on changing needs. • Plan transit stations consistent with applicable FRA and FTA safety guidelines. • Plan safe and effective corridor crossing Locations for vehicles and pedestrians. • Plan rail freight improvements wnsistent with applicable FRA regulations. • Minimize overall modal conflicts. Initially alternatives will be mode-neutral, which means vehicle type will not be a factor in projecting ridership. Subsequently, modal technology will be determined based on the above elements and detailed alternatives will be developed that will define mode, potential connections with Tri-Rail, frequency, and stopping patterns {express/local service), Por example, the FEC Railway corridor contains mixed-use, walkable communities that desire access to premium transit via a local station. However, fre- quent stopping will slow down service so that longer trips will not be time-competitive with the automo- bile. In order to balance the desire For local access with competitive travel times, patterns of express and local services will be explored along the corridor. Express trains will allow longer. distance travelers to get to their destinations faster, and local service will provide access to a greater number of small communi- ties. Key stations will be established where both ex- press and local service stop, allowing riders to trans- fer from one service to the other. Alignment AI#er•natives to be Considered For Phase 2 of the SFECCTA study the following general alignments will be considered: • FEC Railway corridor • I-95 (in northern Palrn Beach County only) EastlWest Connections to be Considered East/west connections between the FEC Railway alignment and the SFRC will be explored in order to interface the proposed transit improvements with ex- isting passenger transit services such asTri-Rail, Connecting to existing transit services will serve to enhance South Florida's transportation network Cur- rently, east/west connections to be explored include a north-end connection to extend Tri-Rail service beyond West Palm Beach, a Pompano connection in Broward County, a Little River connection in Miami- Dade Count<~, and possibly other cannections. fects on adjacent communities and environmental im- pacts. During Phase 2 of the study the following five modes will be considered: 1) Light Rail Transit (LRT) is a flexible transporta- tion mode which consists of a system of lightweight passenger rail cars operating singly or in short, two- or three-car trains on fixed rails, This mode can oper- ate in a dedicated right-of way or in street traffic on tracks embedded in the street much like a streetcar. However, LRT cannot share tracks with freight or Tri-Rail. Trains may be electrically powered or run on diesel engines. They may attain speeds up to 65 MPH and carry as many as 6U to lt)0 passengers per car. 2) Regional Rail (RGR) trains can carry from two to I2 cars and typically use diesel engines but may also be electrically propelled. These trains comply with Federal Railroad Administration {FRA) regulations and therefore may share tracks with freight and Tri- Rail. RGR can operate at speeds of 60 - 80 MPH and Carry as many as 12U seated passengers per car, A regional example of RGR is Tri-Rail. Modal TechnologylTransitSeryices Alternatives to be Considered Determining what mode(s) will be selected for the SFECCTA will be a major decision far this phase of the project. The study may determine that a single technology may be used along the entire corridor or a combination of modal technologies may be more ap- propriate. Issues that will aid in this decision include the predicted number of passengers {ridership), af- -. ,u_~.~ Page 4 3} Rail Rapid Transit (RRT) employs trains that are self-propelled on a dedicated right-of-way separate from freight and Tri-Rail. These trains are electri- cally propelled, on elevated tracks and may carry 200 passengers per car (seated and standing}. RRT trains may be four, six or eight cars long. They are charac- terized by rapidly accelerating passenger rail cars ca- pable of obtaining speeds of 65 MPH. A regional ex- ample of RRT is Metrorail in Miami-Dade County. 4) Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) is a bus service that usually operates within a service corridor, or dedi- cated right-of--way, with a reduced number of stops through traffic signal management favoring the buses. However, BRT may also operate in HOV lanes, ex- pressways, or ordinary streets. These buses operate on diesel but some may use advanced hybrid electric technology. One regional example of BRT is the South Dade Busway. 5} Regional Bus (RGB) is a longer distance, limited stop bus service operating in street traffic. These buses are typically diesel powered and may carry as many as 60 seated passengers. Station Types and Locations to be Considered A preliminary list of station locations has been identi- fied based on numerous meetings with Regional Plan- ning Councils, the three counties and the 28 munici- palities along the FEC corridor to identify all possi- bilities for station locations. As of September 2008, 97 potential locations have been identified. Eighty- seven are along the FEC corridor between Jupiter and downtown Miarni and ten are on potential connec- tions between the FEC and CSX (Tri-Rail) corridors. A technical analysis will be performed during Phase 2 of the study to determine which of these locations function best based on a number of factors including: • Transik-oriented develop- • Land availability for station ment potential and parking • Environmental factors • Projected ridership • Economic development Intermodal connectivity potential • Community preference • Accessibility Initial screening, is expected to reduce the number of potential locations to approximately 60 sites. In addi- tion to identifying a comprehensive list of possible locations, a Station Typology Technical Memoran- dum had been developed that defines eight different station types. The various station types include: • City Center Stations . Local Park & Ride Stations • Town Center Stations • Regional Park & Ride • Neighborhood Stations Stations • Employment Center • AirportlSeaport Stations Stations • Special Event Venue Station Each station type is intended to serve a difTerent func- tion and fit into a different type of community, rang- ing from low-investment neighborhood stations to large park-and-ride stations. L_ ~. The Station Typology memorandum and site location maps may be viewed on the project website at the fol- lowing links: httpJ/www.sfeccstud..com/statiol~ areas.html http_//www.sfeccstudy.c°n~/dacuments.html The station evaluation will frst identify "anchor sta- tions", defined as fixed, high-ridership hubs of the system. The primary anchor stations will be the City Center Stations and Airport/Seaport Stations. A sec- ondary group of "key stations" will then be identified, which will include Town Center Stations and Re- gional Park-and-Ride Stations. These stations will likely have high ridership and will serve as secondary hubs of the system. Once the anchor stations and key stations are identified, intermediate stations will be considered, which includes Employment Centers, Lo- cal Park-Rides, Neighborhood Stations and Special Event Venue Stations. Using the eight primary fac- tors, 18 evaluation elements have been identified. These 18 elements will help to flesh out the primary factors. Each station type has required characteristics based on the 18 elements. For instance, City Center Stations should have high population and employment density, and zoning that supports mixed-use high- density development. An evaluation form listing the 18 evaluation elements may be viewed an the project at the following link: htt a/www.sfeccstud .com/documents.html Grade Crossings There are aver 200 at-grade crossings along the FEC Railway within the study area. The primary issues surrounding the grade crossings include traffic delay, train horn noise, and increased risk of accidents. Traffic delays may increase as passenger trains are introduced along the FEC Railway corridor. Potential solutions to traffic delays include grade separation and/or closing certain crossings. However, closures will likely shift the congestion to other roadways. Passenger trains operating along the FEC Railway corridor will be required to sound their horns at each crassing thus increasing the frequency of horns being sounded within the study area. Possible solutions could be to separate and/or close grade crossings or improve existing crossings to qualify for quiet zones. Such improvements will not only create a quiet zone but will also improve safety features at the crassing. The addition of passenger trains may also increase the potential for at-grade transit crossing collision with q,_ n n ;', -. vehicles and pedestrians if improvements are not im- plemented. Again, separating or closing at-grade crossings or improving grade crossing protection could eliminate these risks. Maps and images of the various types of crossings may be found on the pro- ject website at the following link: httpa/ www.sfeccshtd .com/documents.html Transportation System Management & Na Build Alternatives Ta satisfy the FTA New Starts {49 USC 5309) alter- natives analysis requirement, FDOT will also evaluate options for transportation improvements in the study area that do not involve significant capital investment including Transportation System Management (TSM) improvements and the implications of taking no ac- tion (i.e., the "no build" alternative}. The TSM option to be explored would include enhancements to exist- ing transit, such as Tri-Rail and Metrorail, as well as introducing new bus services on roadways parallel to but not within the FEC right-of--way.

The City remains the agent and this office monitors all work performed by the contractor, ensuring compliance according to specifications and program guidelines. Pay request forms require both contractor and homeowner's signatures. Grant recipients have met all eligibility requirements as specified in the approved Policies and Procedures. The rehabilitation activities will bring the homes to minimum code requirements by repairing the roof, electric and plumbing systems and correcting other incipient code violations. The Neighborhood Services Division is responsible for ensuring that the housing rehabilitation contracts are awarded to the lowest responsive bidder, as a result of a formal bid process. Therefore, an in-house policy was created to limit awards to the lowest responsive bidder as it relates to the Division's professional in-house estimate. This serves to disqualify unreasonably low bids and therefore protect against the resulting change order requests. This policy further assists the Division with its goals of completing each rehabilitation activity utilizing the estimated amount of funding required. In addition, the in-house policy allows the City to award rehabilitation contracts to another responsive bidder in the event that the lowest responsive bidder's performance on a current job is proceeding unsatisfactorily and/or the contractor has more than three (3) open projects at any given time. FUNDING SOURCE Community Development Block Grant 118-1963-554-49.19 RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends awarding the bid for one (1) Housing Rehabilitation project to the verified responsible low bidder, Jemstone Construction Group, Inc. for a total award of $24,564.75.

The Lease was amended three times and eventually assumed by Oxford Business Corporation (Oxford). Thereafter on June 29, 2007, the Lease was assigned to the City when Block 77 conveyed to the City the Robert Federspiel Parking Garage. Since that time, the parties have desired to clarify the tenant share of expenses and insurance provisions. This Amendment No. 4 clarifies the provisions. The Fourth Amendment to the Lease provides that the Tenant, Oxford, shall pay monthly to the City, one-twelfth of the estimated operating expenses prorated to the parking that Oxford leases and allows for increases or decreases depending on actual costs. It includes expenses incurred by the City for its own personnel and equipment. The insurance provision provides that Tenant will provide general liability insurance with the City named as an additional insured, as well as other insurance as required by law. The City may elect to purchase insurance at its sole discretion, but the Tenant has no right to be named an additional insured. If the City elects to have insurance, the cost will be part of the Operating Expenses charged to Tenant. The City may elect to set aside a reserve to pay costs in the event of a loss and if so, Tenant will pay its share as part of the Operating Expenses. If the City establishes a reserve and then elects to obtain insurance, the City will apply the reserve, including Oxford's contributions, to pay for insurance premiums.

ITEM BEFORE COMMISSION The Delray Beach Police Department (DBPD) requests approval for the purchase of ammunition from Florida Bullet in the amount of $18,300 for use by the S.W.A.T. team. This purchase request is itemized as follows: *Speer #53375 40 Frangible, 1,000/case x 28 cases= $10,276 *Federal # XM193AF 223 900/case x 20 cases= $5,920 *Force On Force #FF9B1 9 mm, 500/case x 4 cases= $1,052 *Force On Force #FF9R1 9 mm, 500/case x 2 cases= $526 *Force On Force #FF9Y1 9 mm, 500/case x 2 cases= $526 BACKGROUND Pricing is based on the Florida State Bid # 680-050-09-1 (Quote and Bid cover sheet attached). The SWAT Commander provided the following descriptions of this purchase: #53375- Speer:The SWAT Team has 18 Officers/Sergeants and training is every 2 weeks (26 times per year). In order to maintain current standards and levels of proficient shooting, the SWAT Commander is requesting 28,000 rounds for the entire team for the remainder of the year. This ammunition request represents the bare minimum of what is needed. Since the Glock handgun is a primary weapon for some members, it is paramount that they be given the opportunity to train and fire repetitive courses for proficiency and accuracy. In addition, the team sends officers to related SWAT schools. These schools require the students to provide for their own ammunition. #XM193AF- Federal .223: For SWAT purposes, this ammunition is used for the Rock River M-4 (AR-15) weapons. Twelve members currently use this as their primary weapon and need to train and qualify quarterly. Members also attend schools where they must supply their own ammunition. #FF9B1/FF9R1/FF9Y1- Force on Force: Simunitions are designed to be used in the same manner as live fire. However, the projectiles are non-lethal and designed to be fired at live subjects. They are used in Warrant service and SWAT operation trainings. This provides the officers with the ability to safely engage a live target without injury during these trainings. The Simunition rounds can be used in MP-5 sub guns or the designated Glock 9mm weapons. This ammunition provides for a different type of training as they can be used indoors. Typically, the 18 members on average will shoot 50-100 rounds per training. Simunition training occurs at least 4 times per year, as supplies permit. FUNDING SOURCE Funding is available in account number 001-2115-521-52.19 (General Fund/Operating Supplies/SWAT Expenditures) RECOMMENDATION The Police Department recommends approval. a. '~n. ~=.~ ~~ MEMORANDUM TO: Mayor and City Commissioners FROM: Scott Aronson, Parking Management Specialist Richard C. Hasko, P.E., Director of Environmental Services THROUGH: David T. Harden, City Manager DATE: March 6, 2009 SUBJECT: AGENDA ITEM 9.A. -REGULAR COMMISSION MEETING OF MARCH 17, 2009 PARKING LICENSE AGREEMENT/CUT 432 ITEM BEFORE COMMISSION The item before the City Commission is that of approving a request from Cut 432 to establish a valet parking queue on the west side of SE 4th Avenue and entering into the associated Valet Parking License Agreement. BACKGROUND At the Parking Management Advisory Board (PMAB) Meeting of December 16, 2008, Cut 432 had requested to establish a valet queue on the south side of the 400 block of East Atlantic Avenue. Staff had not supported the request as there is currently a queue on the north side of the street, directly across the street from the proposed queue. There is also issue with vehicles exiting the queue in the direction of the heavily traveled Federal Highway, along with a concern with the further elimination of prime spaces from Atlantic Avenue. During deliberations, it was suggested that modification of the request relocating the queue to the southwest corner of SE 4d' Avenue may garner better support as it would be off Atlantic Avenue thus mitigating concerns related to the queue being on Atlantic Avenue. Staff recalls initial difficulties with the 110 East Atlantic queue on SE 2nd Avenue due to traffic backing up on Atlantic Avenue as cars attempting to enter the queue stopped in mid turn upon finding the queue full, affecting traffic in all directions as they got caught in the intersection waiting for the valet. The Police Department agreed that this situation was detrimental to traffic flow on Atlantic Avenue during evenings when the valet was in operation. This issue has since been resolved by proper staffing levels being maintained at all times. While a similar concern is arises at the proposed location, Staff is cognizant of the need to assist local businesses, especially in these extraordinary economic times. Staff recommends approval of the queue on SE 4d' Avenue with the caveat that the area will be closely monitored to assure the smooth transition of traffic through the intersection. If similar challenges arise as occurred at the 110 East Atlantic Avenue queue, the Parking Valet License Agreement may be terminated by the City Manager or his designee. Staff will give ample opportunity for the situation to be corrected prior to canceling the agreement. If approved, the queue will be an added convenience to visitors east of the FEC tracks at the times that the queue on the north side of Atlantic is full as they will no longer need to cross the tracks and reverse direction to park with a valet. A simple left turn at the corner of SE 4th Avenue will be all that is required. Additionally, Staff has been contacted by two property owners who have expressed an interest in leasing parking lots to the valet to facilitate the parking license agreement. One is located on the same block as the proposed queue, which should help in keeping traffic in the queue moving quickly, avoiding any backup. The other is in the 100 Block of SE 5th Avenue. In consideration of the above facts, staff is recommending approval of the applicant's request. REVIEW BY OTHERS The Parking Management Advisory Board and Downtown Development Authority at their respective meetings of February 24, and March 9, 2009 recommended approval of the applicant's request. This item was presented to the Community Redevelopment Agency at its meeting of March 12, 2009. The findings of those deliberations will be discussed at the meeting. RECOMMENDATION Recommend approval of the request from Cut 432 to establish a valet parking queue on the west sideof SE 4th Avenue south of Atlantic and to enter into the associated Parking License Agreement with the understanding said agreement may be canceled with no further action if traffic problems due to the queue are not corrected following notice. PARKING LICENSE AGREEMENT THIS AGREEMENT ("The Agreement") is made this 1st day of April, 2009, by and between the CITY OF DELRAY BEACH, a Florida Municipal Corporation (the "CITY"), and CUT 432 a Florida corporation ("LICENSEE"). WITNESSETH: WHEREAS, LICENSEE has requested permission to use a certain number of public parking spaces along Atlantic Avenue and certain side streets for valet parking queues; and WHEREAS, in order to use the parking spaces, the CITY requires that LICENSEE enter into this non-exclusive License Agreement. NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the sum of Ten Dollars ($10.00), the mutual covenants and conditions contained in this Agreement, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereby agree as follows: L Incorporation of Recitals. The parties hereby represent and warrant that the above recitals are accurate and correct and hereby incorporate them in this Agreement. 2. Parking Queues. The CITY agrees to allow LICENSEE the non-exclusive use of THREE (3) parking spaces located on SE 4r'' Avenue at the southwest corner of SE 4t'' Avenue and Atlantic Avenue for valet parking queues. The parking spaces are to be used for valet parking queues daily between the hours of 5:00 p.m. to 2:00 a.m. on Sunday through Monday (7 days per week).

BACKGROUND In June of 2007, the City Commission declared a necessity for the improvement of SW 8~' Avenue, between SW 10~' Street and SW ll~ Street, by paving the road. The SW 8~' Avenue Special Assessment District was established through the adoption of Resolution 46-07 on August 21, 2007, in order to defray a portion of the costs of the paving of SW 8~' Avenue. The total estimated cost of the street paving that the adjacent property owners would be responsible for was $49,200.00. The paving of the street has been completed and a final accounting of the costs has been made. The original estimated amount for road construction was $206,000.00. The actual cost of the road construction came in at $99,013.77, a 52% reduction. A letter was sent to the property owners, see attached, that stated "if the total actual construction costs are less than the amount budgeted for this project, then your assessment amount would be reduced from the amount stated above in proportion to the amount saved." On that basis, the City Attorney's office would recommend that the amount the adjacent property owners are responsible for be reduced by 52% from the $49,200.00 original amount to $23,647.95. In accordance with the requirements of state law and the City's Land Development Regulations, a final assessment roll has been prepared and will be considered for adoption at a public hearing scheduled for May 5, 2009. The City Clerk will be mailing notices to the individual property owners regarding the hearing date and the final assessment amount.

Hasko, P.E. Environmental Services Director THROUGH: David T. Harden, City Manager DATE: March 9, 2009 SUBJECT: AGENDA ITEM 9.L. -REGULAR COMMISSION MEETING OF MARCH 17, 2009 CONTRACT AWARD/FLORIDA HIGHWAY PRODUCTS, INC. ITEM BEFORE COMMISSION Requesting Commission approval/authorization for Mayor to execute the contract with Florida Highway Products Inc. for microsurface paving of existing City streets. The scope of this work generally consists of crack filling, leveling course, asphalt like overlay and pavement markings. Total cost of this contract is $196,292.85. BACKGROUND This project is the annual street resurfacing contract. This year a new process, called microsurfacing, will provide a resurfaced street that is as durable as typical asphaltic resurfacing but at a more economical price. Microsurfacing has a life of 10 to 12 years while asphaltic resurfacing has a life of 14 to 16 years. Microsurfacing costs $3.59 per square yard while typical resurfacing costs $6.35 per square yard. Microsurfacing provides a minimum disturbance to traffic during application, in fact traffic can resume on the street as soon as the microsurface is applied. This work will be accomplished by utilizing an existing contract that the City of West Palm Beach has with Florida Highway Products, Inc. for the microsurfacing of streets in the City of West Palm Beach. Attached is the proposal from Florida Highway Products, Inc., and the Standard Form Agreement between City of Delray Beach and Contractor. The contract that the City of West Palm Beach has with Florida Highway Products, Inc., is also attached. The location maps show the streets we propose to resurface. Atlantic Avenue between Swinton and Federal Highway is being included primarily for cosmetic reasons since the rest of Atlantic from AlA to I-95 is being resurfaced as part of the current DOT project. Our portion of Atlantic could be deleted and the funds used elsewhere, or we can keep it as currently proposed. FUNDING SOURCE Funding is available from: 334-3162-541-61.17 after budget transfer. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends approval subject to the vendor executing the City's payment and performance bond and providing insurance acceptable to the City's Risk Manager. sTAN®ARD ~®RM of AGREEMENT BETWEEN CITY AND CONTRACTOF~.

James, Fire Chief THROUGH: David T. Harden, City Manager DATE: March 13, 2009 SUBJECT: AGENDA ITEM 9.M. -REGULAR COMMISSION MEETING OF MARCH 17, 2009 FIRE STATION NO.2/TEMPORARY STAFFING ITEM BEFORE COMMISSION The Commission is requested to authorize the redeployment of personnel assigned to Fire Station 2. BACKGROUND The ability to provide the same level of service throughout the community by increasing the minimum daily staffing at Fire Station 2 to five personnel continues to be deferred due to fiscal constraints. Given the current state of the economy and the budget shortfalls cities, counties and the state face, permanent funding may not be likely in the near future. Organizationally, the fire-rescue department must continue services at a level that provides for the safety of our personnel, the public and operational effectiveness. Under Engine 2's current staffing level of two (2) personnel, we have documented incidents of this unit arriving first on the scene of a working fire with inadequate staff to perform safely. Our continued exposure dictates an immediate modification to our deployment strategy before a tragedy occurs. The department proposes to redeploy the two personnel currently assigned from Rescue 2 to Engine 2, which will provide staffing of four for Engine 2. As part of this deployment, Engine 2's capability will be upgraded to Advanced Life Support (ALS). This configuration will provide the same number of in-service ALS units as are currently deployed in the City. RECOMMENDATION The Fire-Rescue Department recommends that Rescue 2 personnel be reassigned to Engine 2. MEMORANDUM TO: Mayor and City Commissioners FROM: David T.

Historic Preservation Chapter of the City of Delray Beach Land Development Regulations, which was adopted March 10, 1987, combined with Delray Beach's status as a Certified Local Government (CLG), mandates the City to periodically conduct an inventory of historic architectural resources. The Historic Preservation Chapter calls for identification of all districts, archaeological sites, buildings, structures, improvements and appurtenances within the city. As outlined in the Request for Proposals, this task is projected to be completed no later than June 15, 2008. The Resurvey of the Marina Historic District is intended to provide a detailed report on the development and architecture of the district, and recommendations as to the designation of the district both on the Local and National Registers of Historic Places. The resurvey is to include all contributing and non-contributing buildings and structures within the district boundary and Florida Master Site File (FMSF) forms will be submitted for all buildings and structures over 35 years of age. 1.2 Project Location The Marina Historic District Resurvey area is located within the corporate limits of the City of Delray Beach, in Palm Beach County, Florida (Figure 1). The City of Delray Beach is located on the Atlantic Coast of Florida, south of West Palm Beach, and north of Boca Raton. Palm Beach County is bounded on the west by Glades County and Hendry County, on the north by Martin County, on the east by the Atlantic Ocean, and on the south by Broward County. The Marina Historic District Resurvey Area, which is located south of the downtown area, consists of city blocks that typically follow a rectilinear grid within the corporate limits of the City of Delray Beach. The survey area is bounded on the north by East Atlantic Avenue; on the west by the north/south alley between SE 7th Avenue and Federal Highway from SE 4th Street to SE 1St Street where it veers to the east and then continues north to East Atlantic Avenue alon~ the center line of SE 7th Avenue; on the east by the Intracoastal Waterway; and on the south by SE 4 Street (Figure 2). Note: the multi-family properties at 35 and 45 SE 7th Avenue are not included in the district. 1.3 Project Purpose The City of Delray Beach Planning and Zoning Department initiated this project to ensure that the City's ongoing preservation planning efforts effectively respond to the City's current historic resources. The purpose of this survey project is to augment and update previous survey work conducted, and provide information on pre-1973 resources not previously surveyed. The collected information will assist the City in the factual understanding of its historic resources and allow for the appropriate future planning of the Marina Historic District and its immediate surroundings.

The survey consisted of four phases: 1) meetings, 2) background research, 3) field survey and data entry, and 4) evaluation of resources within the study area for their eligibility for local and national landmark status. 2.1 Meetings Several meetings were held in connection with this project. Akick-off meeting with the City of Delray Beach Planning and Zoning Department was held on April 15, 2008 at the City offices in Delray Beach. This meeting covered the project background, schedule, purpose and goals, and recommended research sources and local contacts. On May 19, 2008, Warren Adams held a meeting with Amy Alvarez at the City of Delray Beach Planning and Zoning Department to give an overview of the survey process and survey findings and to discuss the Draft Report. On May 21, 2008, the progress of the survey and report was discussed with Amy Alvarez (City of Delray Beach Preservation Planner), Paul Dorling (City of Delray Beach Director of Planning and Zoning), and Susan Ruby (City of Delray Beach City Attorney). On the same day, a progress report was also presented to the City's Historic Preservation Board (HPB) at their regular meeting as a Discussion Item. 2.2 Background Research GAI conducted a search of the Florida Master Site File (FMSF) database for previously surveyed historic resources and previous cultural resource management reports. Presently there are 45 resources with FMSF numbers located in the study area. The previous surveys in the City of Delray Beach are described more fully in Section 3 of this report. GAI Senior Architectural Historian Warren Adams conducted additional research on the general history and development of the Marina District and the City of Delray Beach to augment the information provided in the FMSF forms. This included a review of information on previously surveyed buildings and structures, published histories of the City of Delray Beach, and Sanborn maps depicting the project area. Further research was also undertaken in the City of Delray Beach Planning and Zoning Department, where building record cards and HPB reports by City Staff were consulted to check for any alterations to structures within the project area. 2.3 Field Survey and Data Entry The existing boundary of the Marina Historic District study area (see Figure 2) was established by the original designation of the district in 1988. The boundary was established to include resources that represent the best architectural examples which fall within the period of significance and that convey the historic architectural character and the historical spatial development of the neighborhood. GAI Senior Architectural Historian Warren Adams conducted the field survey phase of this project between May 10 and May 16, 2008, systematically walking street-by-street to update the existing information and to identify newly contributing architectural resources within the historic district. The field survey phase involved the documentation of architectural resources in the survey area. The architectural resources were photographed and recorded on FMSF Forms and entered into the SmartForm 11 database program. The architectural styles, features, and settings of these resources were recorded, and any major changes or alterations to the resources were noted. All copies of the photographs for use by the City were prints processed from digital images taken during the field survey phase. Photographs submitted to the FMSF were digital images on a compact disc, as well as prints on plain paper. Original FMSF forms and supporting materials were submitted to the City of Delray Beach Planning and Zoning Department and to the FMSF in Tallahassee. GAI expected to identify a large number of resources that had been previously recorded in the FMSF, based on the completion of the original designation. This expectation was verified in the field. Since the original survey, the Marina Historic District has experienced a significant level of inappropriate development both within and adjacent to the district boundary and has lost some contributing resources as a result of demolition and alterations. These factors led GAI to expect a number of negative impacts to the district as a whole, which could potentially result in a proposed amendment to the existing district boundary. 4 Final Report June 13, 2008 2.4 Evaluation Resurvey of the Marina Historic District There were three principal goals of the resurvey of the Marina Historic District: 1) evaluate the historic properties in the Marina Historic District survey area for their status as contributors or non-contributors within the district; 2) evaluate the historic resources for eligibility in the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP), either individually, or as part of a historic district; and 3) evaluate the existing district boundary to determine if it should be amended. The evaluations were based on the information collected during the fieldwork and background research phases of the survey, the NRHP Criteria (Appendix A), National Register Bulletin 15-How to Apply the National Register Criteria for Evaluation, National Register Bulletin 21-Defining Boundaries for National Register Properties, and the City of Delray Beach Land Development Regulations Section 4.5.1(B) Criteria for Designation of Historic Sites or Districts. 5 Final Report Resurvey of the Marina Historic District June 13, 2008 3.0 Previous Surveys in the Marina Historic District Survey Area GAI conducted a search of previous historic architectural surveys conducted within the Marina Historic District. Three previous cultural resource surveys have been identified that included all or part of the project area. The identified architectural and historical surveys, which have been conducted since 1988, are summarized below. 3.1 Previous Cultural Resources Surveys in the Survey Area The first survey of the Marina Historic District was undertaken in 1988 for the creation of the historic district. This initial survey consisted of an overview of all resources within the existing district boundary and identified 51 contributing buildings and 45 non-contributing buildings. The contributing buildings were built between 1922 and 1943, with the predominant architectural styles being Mediterranean Revival and Minimal Traditional. Other architectural styles included Art Moderne, Colonial Revival, Bungalow, Vernacular, Monterey, and Mission. The report also noted the most significant structures within the district, which included: The Presidential (700 East Atlantic Avenue); The Boyd Building (840 East Atlantic Avenue); The Christian Science Church (200 SE 7th Avenue); The Anchorage (66 Marine Way); Marine Villas (110 Marine Way); The Fontaine Fox Cottages (238, 232, 228, and 222 SE 7th Avenue); and the early Mission style townhouses at 46-48 Marine Way. Following the original survey, no other comprehensive district-specific surveys have been undertaken. However, in 1999, Janus Research updated the previously available information on contributing structures as part of their citywide survey, and in 2006, REG Architects included a general overview of the district in the amended Historic Preservation Design Guidelines. The amended guidelines list 44 structures as contributing to the district and, with concern, note the level of new development, particularly in the southern portion of the district. 3.2 National Register-Listed Resources in the Marina Historic District The City of Delray Beach currently has five properties listed on the National Register; however, none are located within the Marina Historic District. 3.3 Marina Historic District Historic Landmarks In 1987, The City of Delray Beach enacted its first historic preservation ordinance, which resulted in the creation of the Historic Preservation Board (HPB). The HPB's duties, according to the ordinance, include recommending historic sites and districts to the City Commission. The City currently has 30 individually designated historic sites; however, none are located within the Marina Historic District. 6 Final Report Resurvey of the Marina Historic District June 13, 2008 4.0 Survey Findings 4.1 Architectural Styles in the Marina Historic District Survey Area Vernacular Vernacular buildings were typically designed and constructed by lay builders who utilized traditional building techniques. When America transformed from an agrarian to an industrial nation in the late nineteenth century, mass production was more widely practiced, leading to the standardization of building elements. Decorative features often were derived from other historical styles that may result in a classification of Vernacular with elements that are tied to a specific architectural style. For example, residential buildings in Delray Beach are frequently a vernacular type, but have recognizable features associated with Mediterranean Revival, Mission, or Classical styles. Frame Vernacular Frame Vernacular houses were built in the Marina Historic District beginning in the mid-1920s and continued in popularity into the 1940s, although there are also a small number of more recent examples including the resource at 24-26 Marine Way that contains some classical detailing. Features of this building type typically include hipped or gable roofs, a gable-end facade, open or screened front porches with a hipped or gable roof, and a central entrance. Other architectural details can include exposed rafter tails, gable-end vents, shutters, simple porch columns, and chimneys. Frame vernacular houses are usually sided with weatherboard or novelty siding, and are sometimes trimmed with contrasting cornerboards. Almost all of the houses of this style in the Marina Historic District are one story. A good example of the Frame Vernacular style in the survey area is illustrated by: Photograph 1-118 SE 7th Avenue (P810286) Masonry Vernacular buildings share many of the characteristics as those constructed in the Frame Vernacular style. They tend to be simple, largely unornamented, and constructed from readily available building materials. Masonry Vernacular houses were built within the Marina Historic District from 1928- 1957. They are a mixture of one- and two-story single family residences and one- and two-story multiple family units. Houses built in this style within the district are typically finished with smooth stucco and have hipped, gable, or flat roofs. Features of this building type include exposed rafter tails, gable vents, shutters, brick veneer and detailing, decorative metal trellises, and chimneys. Window types include double hung sash, jalousie, and awning. A good example of Masonry Vernacular architecture in the survey area is shown in Photograph 2: Photograph 2-50 Palm Square (P800299) 7 Masonry Vernacular Final Report June 13, 2008 Minimal Traditional Resurvey of the Marina Historic District The term Minimal Traditional describes the transition that occurred in residential design from the period just before World War II through the 1950s. As housing became affordable and new building technologies allowed for prefabrication and mass production, homes became simpler. The Minimal Traditional style developed as a compromise style, reflecting traditional forms while utilizing a minimum of decorative details. The roofs of this style are typically low or intermediate, with close eaves and rake. Typically, but not always, these houses have large chimneys and afront-facing gable, reflecting the popularity of the Tudor style cottages that were so popular in the 1920s and 1930s. These houses, which are usually clad in wood or stucco and sometimes with a partial facing of stone, rock or brick, are relatively small, one-story, modest residences. A number of Minimal Traditional-style houses are present in the survey area, including: Photograph 3-29 Palm Square (P800298) Ranch This style, which originated in California in the 1930s, continued in popularity through the 1970s. Features of this style include a maximized facade width, which is increased by built-in garages, a nearly standard amenity on these houses; a low-pitched roof, usually extending on the front to shelter a porch or stoop; an asymmetrical design; and ribbon or large picture windows with decorative shutters. A small number of Ranch style houses are located within the Marina Historic District. A good example is illustrated by: Photograph 4-123 SE 7th Avenue This style was popular in Florida from the 1920s through the 1940s. Features of this style include frame construction with weatherboard or novelty siding; slow-pitched roof, usually extending on the front to shelter a porch; wide overhanging eaves; exposed rafter tails; multi-pane upper sash; and an off-center entrance. They are typically one to one-and-a-half stories in height. A well-preserved example of the Bungalow style in the survey area is illustrated by: Photograph r9 SE 7th Avenue (P810297) 8 Craftsman-style Bungalows Final Report June 13, 2008 Resurvey of the Marina Historic District Mission Style The Mission style can be traced back to the Mission style California mission churches established by Father Junipero Serra during the 1700s. Built throughout Delray Beach, the Mission style was particularly popular during the Florida Land Boom period. This style features cone- or two- story height, smooth- or rough-textured stuccoed walls, a flat roof obscured by a parapet which may be shaped, clay the shed roofs over windows and doors, Craftsman-style windows, exposed drain spouts, and arched openings. A well-preserved example of the Mission Style in the survey area is shown in Photograph 6: Photograph 6-106 SE 7t`' Avenue (P810287) This style first was developed in the Palm Beach area of Florida in the early 1920s and was popularized by Florida architect Addison Mizner, who constructed elaborate and scrupulously detailed Mediterranean Revival style mansions for his wealthy clients. Built in the survey area from the mid 1920s to the late 1930s, Mediterranean Revival style houses typically feature a one- or two-story height, frame or clay the construction with stuccoed (smooth or textured) exterior, a shaped parapet, clay the roof(s), arched window heads, decorative iron grillwork, stucco and brick steps, and decorative drain spouts. There are a number of examples of the Mediterranean Revival Style in the survey area, as illustrated by: Photograph 7-60 Palm Square (P800300) be derived from the Philadelphia Centennial Exposition of 1876, where many Colonial-inspired buildings were interpreted. Twentieth century Colonial Revival buildings are usually free interpretations of the original; therefore, elements of Georgian, Federal, or Adam styles often are combined. Typically, details include a symmetrical plan shape, wood siding exterior, sash windows, and classically-inspired details such as columns and dentils. The only Colonial Revival example in the survey area is: Photograph 8-200 SE 7th Avenue (P810275) 9 Mediterranean Revival Style Colonial Revival Style The early origin of this style can Final Report June 13, 2008 Monterey Art Moderne Resurvey of the Marina Historic District This residential type is named for the colonial capital of California during the Spanish occupation. The Monterey style was popular in Florida from the 1930s through the 1950s. The principal feature of the Monterey style is a second story porch that cantilevers over the first floor and is covered by the principal roof. Details include frame or masonry construction with wood or stucco exterior, double-hung sash or casement windows, and the or shingle roof coverings. There is only one example of the Monterey style in the survey area: Photograph 9-The Anchorage, 60 Marine Way (P810290) Art Moderne is considered a product of the modern movement in architecture. Art Moderne reflects the early twentieth century excitement over technological advancements, high speed transportation, and innovative new construction techniques. During the 1930s and 1940s, the Art Moderne style was one of the most popular styles found throughout Florida. Characteristic features include smooth wall surfaces, flat roofs, asymmetrical plans, and a horizontal emphasis. Other features include grooves, bands, and balustrades that contribute to the horizontality of the buildings and common materials include glass block, mirrored or stainless steel panels and aluminum doors and window trim. A fine example of an Art Moderne commercial building is: Photograph 10-816-840 East Atlantic Avenue (P800245) 4.2 Architectural Types in the Marina Historic District Survey Area The Marina Historic District survey area contains a limited range of architectural types, reflective of its history as a primarily residential area of the city. Single-family residences with uniform setbacks from the 1920s to 1960 are set on a grid street plan and make up the overwhelming majority of the building stock in the survey area. Lot sizes vary with the largest residential lots being situated on the Intracoastal Waterway. The most common architectural styles are Masonry and Frame Vernacular, Minimal Traditional, and Mediterranean Revival, with isolated examples of Mission, Monterey, Colonial Revival, Craftsman Bungalow, Ranch, and Art Moderne. Buildings in the southern section of the survey area range from small traditional residences to large, recently-built single family homes. Multiple-family residences within the survey area date from 1937 through 1996 and are a mixture of one- and two-story structures. The majority of these structures are Masonry Vernacular in style although there is also one example of the Monterey style. 10 Final Report Resurvey of the Marina Historic District June 13, 2008 Commercial buildings in the northern section of the survey area are concentrated along East Atlantic Avenue. The five commercial structures were built between 1931 and 1996 and are a mixture of architectural styles consisting of Art Moderne, Mission, Masonry Vernacular, and a modern interpretation of the Mediterranean Revival style. The structures range from one to three stories in height with glass storefronts facing the street. Isolated examples of other building types and property uses found in the survey area include a church, parking lots, and a marina and park on Marine Way. 4.3 Surveyed Resources in the Marina Historic District Survey Area GAI surveyed 87 resources in the Marina Historic District project area in May 2008. This number includes survey updates for 45 previously surveyed resources, 16 newly identified contributing resources, and 28 non-contributing resources (listed in Appendices B, C, and D respectively). Each entry in Table 1 (below) includes the FMSF number, date of construction (either documented or estimated), name (where applicable), address, and its architectural style. Resources highlighted in bold are listed as contributing structures within the Marina Historic District. The National Register- and locally-eligible resources also are listed in Section 6.

Instead, it provides a historic context or framework for the evaluation of the surveyed buildings and structures in the Marina Historic District survey area for possible national/local historic designation, both individually and as contributors to the historic district. This historic overview is organized around important milestones in the history of Delray Beach, and also highlights important historical themes, such as settlement. The concluding section of this chapter ties together the important historical themes in the 2008 Marina Historic District resurvey area as illustrated by examples of local architecture. 5.2 Early History of Delray Beach Development in the vicinity of Delray Beach began in 1876, with the construction of the Orange Grove House of Refuge No. 3 by the United States Life Saving Corps. This building was built on the shores of the Atlantic Ocean in what is now Delray Beach, and was named for the nearby sour orange grove. This building was one of nine houses of refuge constructed on the east coast of Florida, from New Smyrna to Biscayne Bay. These buildings were constructed to serve as life saving stations for shipwrecked sailors or for travelers passing from the northern point of Jupiter south to Miami. The Zion Post Office was constructed near present-day Delray Beach in 1885, and it served as a stop for the Barefoot Mailman, who would make an overnight stop on his route between Juno Beach and Lemon City, located just north of Miami (Janus Research 2002: 10). Photograph 12-Orange Grove House of Refuge, Built in 1876 In 1894, William S. Linton, a postmaster from Saginaw, Michigan, traveled to south Florida with his friend and bookstore owner David Swinton. While in West Palm Beach, they became aware of a land sale being held near the House of Refuge and traveled down the East Coast Canal by barge to see the land. Ultimately, Linton and Swinton purchased 160 acres of land from Captain George Gleason of Jacksonville, who originally purchased the land in 1868 under the provisions of the Homestead Exemption Act (Farrar 1974: 12). Linton, in turn, platted a town in his name on this land. He returned to Michigan and began an advertising campaign to promote his investment and to draw settlers to his new town. The 1895 Plat for the Town of Linton laid out a central business district, residential lots, a school lot, and a race track. Photograph 13-1895 Plat of Town of Linton In 1896, with the arrival of Henry Morrison Flagler's Florida East Coast (FEC) Railway, subdivisions were platted and the Town of Linton was officially recorded, in a partnership between Linton and Flagler's Model Land Company. Many of the new local residents went to work for Flagler, clearing and grading the railroad route and laying rails (Nielander 1995: 7). Black families from northern Florida also began to arrive and settled west of and near the Town of Linton, in an area known as the Sands, which got 15 Final Report June 13, 2008 Resurvey of the Marina Historic District its name from its sandy soil. This area is known today as the West Settler's Historic District. Many of these new families found the area suitable for settlement and opportunity, and in turn, they encouraged relatives and friends to relocate to the area (Janus Research 2003:2). The new settlers to Linton, however, would quickly find themselves tested by several adverse events, including a freeze that destroyed many of the crops and a hurricane that brought devastation to their property. As a result, many of the settlers, including William S. Linton, found themselves financially ruined from the losses of crops and personal property. Many of the town's residents traveled back to Michigan or south to Miami. The news of Linton's financial demise spread to Michigan; subsequently, fewer people were willing to risk settlement in the new town. Because the name Linton had become associated with these catastrophic events, those citizens who remained decided to change the name of the town, both to attract new residents and to minimize the failure associated with William Linton. The name Delray was chosen, as it was also the name of the Detroit suburb where resident Warren W. Blackmer originally lived (Farrar 1974: 27). At the turn of the 20th century, the railroad spurred growth in the town, and the population expanded. Regular freight and passenger services were offered, and construction began to increase, including completion of two schools, a general store and commissary, and multiple churches (Janus Research 2002: 12). Flagler's Model Land Company also brought a number of Japanese immigrants to the area during this period. These immigrants settled just south Delray, forming a colony called Yamato. Flagler encouraged the Japanese settlers to establish farming communities, and pineapples became their principal crop. Colony founder Jo Sakai recruited young men from his native village of Miyazu, as well as other surrounding towns, to emigrate to Florida. Yamato Colony settlers frequented Delray, often participating in social events, educational activities, and trade. However, the Yamato settlement never reached more than 100 people, and a combination of a downturn in the pineapple market as well as competition from Cuban pineapple growers resulted in the near disappearance of the colony by 1920 (Janus Research 2003: 2). The early 20th century witnessed steady growth in Delray. During the first decade of the 1900s, the town continued its transformation from a small farming community to a destination favored by new residents and winter visitors. Atlantic Avenue grew as the commercial center of the town, and construction of hotels and commercial buildings occurred along this improved road, which was covered in stones from Swinton Avenue to the East Coast Canal. Communications in Delray were also improved at this time, as the West Palm Beach Telephone Company provided telephone service to the town (Janus Research 2002: 12). In 1909, Palm Beach County was created when it was carved out of the northern portion of Dade County. The town continued its evolution during the second decade of the 1900s, as the growing population allowed for increased investments and improvements. In 1911, the Town of Delray was incorporated, and John Shaw Sundy was elected the first mayor (Sundy's house still stands in the Old School Square Historic Arts District). The incorporated Town of Delray consisted of land located west of the East Coast Canal. Photograph 14-John Shaw Sundy Residence, Which Still Stands on South Swinton Avenue 16 Final Report June 13, 2008 Resurvey of the Marina Historic District Photograph 15-4th of July Parade 1914, on Atlantic Avenue Delray continued to progress in the 1910s, through improvements such as construction of the first bridge across the East Coast Canal at Atlantic Avenue, organization of the first bank, inception of the first newspaper, and construction of the first electric plant, in 1914 (Bundy 1963: 2). Entertainment and recreation was also important to the residents of Delray, as a movie theater, The Bijou, was constructed in 1917. By 1920, the population census noted 1,051 residents living in Delray (Janus Research 2002: 13). Photograph 16-Original Bridge Crossing East Coast Canal, Circa 1910 5.3 Florida Land Boom (and Bust) in Delray Beach Following the end of World War I, which did not have a pronounced effect on Delray due to its relative isolation, a period of prosperity began in the area and throughout Florida. Many people were drawn to Florida's mild climate, and the proliferation of automobiles and road improvements teamed to bring many settlers to the Delray area. Known as the "Ocean City," the prime location and wealth of available land made Delray a top attraction for new residents (Janus Research 2003: 3). Land auctions were held daily in a tent on Atlantic Avenue, and commercial and residential buildings sprang up throughout the town. A number of new subdivisions were also developed throughout Delray, allowing middle-income families an opportunity to purchase homes. By 1923, the increased settlement prompted incorporation of the Town of Delray Beach, located between the East Coast Canal and the Atlantic Ocean. Shortly thereafter, in response to the housing shortage and to fill subdivisions in the town, the Delray Realty Board initiated a "Build-a-Home" program in 1925. Moderately-priced homes were constructed throughout the town to accommodate the increased demand for housing, and many of these homes were built in the popular styles of the time, including Spanish-influenced Mediterranean Revival and Mission styles, fashionable in the Palm Beach area during the 1920s, and the Frame Vernacular (borrowing many Bungalow influences) styles. By 1927, the Towns of Delray and Delray Beach merged, and were incorporated as the City of Delray Beach (Janus Research 2002: 18). 17 Final Report June 13, 2008 Resurvey of the Marina Historic District Photograph 17-The Colony Hotel on East Atlantic Avenue, Built in 1926 Although development was growing at an exponential rate, and the numbers of full- time and seasonal residents continued to increase, the land boom came to a jarring halt. By the end of 1925, many real estate investors began to cancel transactions, as they became panicked by the news of bogus Florida real estate ventures. Prices and demand for Florida real estate had become so exaggerated that there was little basis for the inflated market. By August of 1926, the FEC Railroad stopped shipment of construction materials, severely hampering construction (Curl 1987: 94). The downfall was further exacerbated by two devastating hurricanes which passed through Palm Beach County in 1926 and 1928. The 1928 hurricane was particularly damaging to Delray Beach, as more than 227 houses were destroyed in the storm (Farrar 1974: 66). By the end of the 1920s, along with the crash of the stock market, Florida's real estate was rendered virtually worthless. 5.4 The Great Depression and World War II Despite the economic ravages of the Great Depression, Delray Beach maintained its status as a resort community during the 1930s. The city became a popular destination for cartoonists and writers during this period, as many maintained offices or studios in the Arcade Building on Atlantic Avenue (Britt 1984: 159). Construction projects on Ocean Boulevard and the Intracoastal Waterway also began to increase during this period, and subdivisions such as Ocean Breeze Estates and Seabreeze Park were platted and developed. Local architects began to design homes in lighter and simpler forms, providing a more stylish and practical response to those homes constructed during the Land Boom period (Groover 1998: 70). By the end of the 1930s, daily life in south Florida was being shaped by the looming threat of war. Florida was to become one of the military's major training grounds, and new training facilities were located on Yamato land. Families were evicted from their homes, and Delray Beach became a refuge for Japanese families escaping forced interment. Tourism, which had long been the state's major industry, was curtailed as hotels were converted for use as military housing. The influx of servicemen and their families necessitated an increase in industrial and agricultural production. Delray Beach was at the center of military involvement in Florida, as local men enlisted in the armed forces while women ran businesses and participated in war-related volunteer activities. Blackouts were common during evening hours, as German submarines patrolled off the east coast of Florida (Curl 1987: 109). The proximity of Delray Beach to a number of military installations in the area resulted in many military personnel and their families living in the city during the war. These families were taken by the atmosphere and climate of the area, and many decided to remain after the war (Janus Research 2003: 4). 5.5 Aftermath of World War II to Present Following World War II, communities in Florida began to grow at a rapid rate. Many of the World War II veterans who were stationed in Florida returned to establish permanent or seasonal residency. Since these new residents were faced with a housing shortage, many homes, including prefabricated homes, were quickly and efficiently constructed using the latest in building technology. In addition to the rapid growth of permanent and seasonal residents, the tourist population increased dramatically, reaching prewar levels (Janus Research 2002: 20). By the 1950s, architects began designing homes in Delray Beach that capitalized on ease of construction and suitability to the local climate. Many homes in the Palm Trail and Chevy Chase neighborhoods were constructed with 2-car garages, metal frame jalousie or awning windows, and low-pitched roofs. These architects also used a U-shaped plan to include a rear patio space, which was a good response to 18 Final Report Resurvey of the Marina Historic District June 13, 2008 indoor/outdoor living in a temperate climate and which promoted natural air circulation (Janus Research 2002: 21). Another wave of settlement in Delray Beach occurred in the 1960s and 1970s, in response to the relocation of large corporations such as IBM and Motorola to the area. Along with construction of offices and manufacturing facilities in the surrounding areas, suburban developments were built near Delray Beach, and many of the new residents found these suburbs much more attractive than neighborhoods near downtown (Curl 1987: 124). As a result of suburban development, shopping areas and amenities were built outside of the downtown area, and the resulting shift toward suburbanization had a negative effect on Delray Beach. In the 1980s, Delray Beach initiated efforts to revitalize the heart of downtown, by emphasizing the benefits of historic preservation and improving the infrastructure along the principal business thoroughfares. This effort continued through the 1990s and into the 2000s, as Delray Beach has sought to maintain its historic character and preserve its built environment by placing a renewed emphasis on the benefits of living and conducting business in and around the downtown area. 5.6 History and Development of the Marina Historic District The Marina Historic District is unique to the City of Delray Beach because of its proximity to East Atlantic Avenue and the Intracoastal Waterway. The district is laid out on a grid pattern and the majority of streets are lined with large shade trees. There is an area of city-owned parkland on the east side of Marine Way adjacent to the marina. Photograph 18 -City-owned Parkland and Marina -Marine Way The historic architectural fabric in the Marina Historic District dates from 1922 to 1960. Frame and Masonry Vernacular, Minimal Traditional, and Mediterranean Revival style buildings represent common stylistic preferences in the survey area from this period. Buildings in these styles are found throughout the Marina Historic District, along with examples of Monterey, Mission, Art Moderne, Ranch, Colonial Revival, and Craftsman Bungalow. While the predominant use within the district is residential, there is one church located at 200 SE 7tn Avenue and several commercial properties on East Atlantic Avenue. Photograph 19-Art Moderne commercial property - 700-708 East Atlantic Avenue (P800244) There has been a significant amount of new development which negatively impacts the southern end of the historic district within the 300 block of SE 7tn Avenue. This new development consists of large, out of scale homes along the Intracoastal Waterway which are not compatible with the historic character of the district. Understandably, these large, waterfront lots are extremely desirable; however, the scale and style of the 19 Final Report June 13, 2008 Resurvey of the Marina Historic District The properties on the west side of the 300 block of SE 7tn Avenue are also negatively impacted by the new four-story townhomes built to their rear. The townhomes are outside the historic district and are subject to different zoning regulations; however, they dominate the small, one-story homes within the district. Photograph 20 -Out-of--Scale New Construction - 325 SE 7th Avenue Photograph 21 -New Townhomes on the West District Boundary The Marina Historic District is home to a number of individually significant structures and showcases some of the area's most accomplished architects. Built in 1939 and designed by Gustav Maas, the "Boyd Building" at 840 East Atlantic Avenue is a fine example of a commercial building in the Art Moderne style. The "Marine Villas" at 110 Marine Way were designed by Sam Ogren, Sr. in the Mediterranean Revival style. The four individual cottages have been extremely well maintained and each has a different the design around its door. Ogren also built the Monterey style "Anchorage" at 60 Marine Way and designed and executed the facade renovation of the First Church of Christ Scientist. The church, which served as a chapel to the US Army Air Force Base in Boca Raton, was originally constructed in 1942 and relocated to 200 SE 7tn Avenue in 1949. Other Ogren works include the structures at 200 Marine Way and 203 SE 7tn Avenue. The cottage located at 707 SE 1St Street and relocated from Boca Raton in the 1930s was designed by renowned architect Addison Mizner. Photograph 22 -Marine Villas - 110 Marine Way (P800267) Other historically significant properties include the "Fontaine Fox Cottages" at 218, 222, and 228 SE 7tn Avenue. Fox, a famous cartoonist and creator of "Toonerville Trolley", was a notable winter resident of Delray Beach. The west side of the 300 block of SE 7tn Avenue contained the "Blank Nurseries". The John 20 new structures is inappropriate for the district. Final Report June 13, 2008 Resurvey of the Marina Historic District Rudolph Blank family came to Delray in 1903 from Bay City, Michigan, which makes them part of the early "Michigan Connection" as the settlers from the Saginaw area were called. They founded the first tropical plant nursery in the area, left a legacy of shade trees throughout the area and lived in several structures on the 300 block.

These resources were also evaluated for their potential to be collective contributing elements in the historic district, eligible for listing in the NRHP and as contributing elements in the Marina Historic District. GAI utilized the criteria and standards relevant for each historic register, including National Register Bulletin 15-How to Apply the National Register Criteria and the criteria defined in Section 4.5.1 -Historic Preservation Sites and Districts, in the City of Delray Beach Land Development Regulations. 6.2 National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) The NRHP provides recognition for individual buildings and historic districts significant on the national, state, and local levels. One important function of the NRHP is to identify significant properties that federal, state, and local planners should carefully consider when developing projects. Specifically, any project involving federal or state funding, permitting, licensing, or assistance must avoid adverse impacts to the NRHP-listed or -eligible property. Listing in the NRHP, either individually or as part of an historic district, may make a property eligible for a Federal Income Tax Credit. The property must be income producing and may qualify for up to a 20% income tax credit. In Florida, counties and cities can grant ad valorem tax relief for owners of historic properties. NRHP-listed properties also may be eligible for some American with Disabilities Act (ADA) and building safety code adjustments. 6.3 Historic Significance and the NRHP Criteria The NRHP lists individual landmarks and historic districts that satisfy specific criteria for significance and standards for architectural integrity (Appendix A). The significance of an individual landmark or an historic district is assessed against the historic context established for the surrounding city, county, region, or state. The historic context written for the Marine Historic District architectural survey area established important historical themes and time periods against which the area's historic resources can be evaluated. GAI evaluated the integrity of individual resources in the survey area, as well as the integrity of the neighborhood within the survey area. The integrity of an individual historic resource or an historic district carries equal weight with its historic significance in assessing eligibility for listing in the NRHP. Alterations and additions to historic resources may affect the integrity of individual resources. Generally, buildings in the survey area have been altered or added to in some degree over the years and a number of new, large, and out-of-scale infill structures have been constructed to the south of the survey area that adversely affect the integrity of the district as a whole. 6.4 Applying the NRHP Criteria to the Marina Historic District Survey Area The three NRHP Criteria (Criteria A, B, and C) relating to historic structures were applied to individual historic resources and the Marina Historic District survey area. ® Criterion A relates to significance in the broad patterns of history on the national, state, or local level, as well as association with important historical events. The Marina Historic District is significant under Criterion A for its association with the development of early neighborhoods in Delray Beach. This collection of resources was one of the early neighborhoods platted in the city. The district also represents two periods of rapid settlement of the city, during the Land Boom of the 1920s and the post World War II growth from the 1940s through the 1950s. ® Criterion B relates to an individual resource's association with a person or persons significant on the local, state, or national level. A historic district may also be significant under Criterion B for buildings that are associated with significant individuals. Several buildings within the district are associated with important individuals in the city's history, such as those of the pioneering Blank family and the Fontaine Fox Cottages, associated with the famous cartoonist. 22 Final Report Resurvey of the Marina Historic District June 13, 2008 ® Criterion C relates to buildings or historic districts that embody one or more distinctive architectural styles or types, or can be attributed to known architects or master craftsmen. As shown above, the Marina Historic District contains a number of significant structures of varying architectural styles designed by prominent architects including Addison Mizner, Sam Ogren, Sr., John Volk, and Gustav Maas. 6.5 Historic Resources Eligible for Individual Listing in the NRHP As part of the Marina Historic District resurvey, GAI identified buildings in the survey area that are eligible for listing in the NRHP and/or as locally designated historic landmarks. As this was areconnaissance- level survey, these evaluations were based on exterior examinations only along with basic historical research. The City should undertake an intensive survey of the following resources involving a detailed exterior and interior examination, comprehensive historic research, and a historic boundary determination for each resource. This should be followed by property owner requests for formal nomination of the historic resources to the NRHP and/or as City of Delray Beach historic landmarks. Table 2 lists the recommended historic resources evaluated during the 2008 survey, along with their FMSF number, name (where applicable), address, and the applicable City of Delray Beach and/or NRHP eligibility.

A brief discussion of the historic district follows. Establishing a preliminary boundary for the historic district followed guidelines as outlined in National Register Bulletin 15 and took into consideration such factors as distribution of historic resources; natural boundaries such as waterways; man-made boundaries such as streets and roads; and most importantly, the ability of a district to convey the feeling of a coherent historic area, undiluted by the intrusion of significant numbers of modern buildings or features. The existing Marina Historic District is bounded on the north by East Atlantic Avenue; on the west by the alley between SE 7th Avenue and Federal Highway from SE 4th Street to SE 1St Street where it veers to the east and then continues north to East Atlantic Avenue along the center line of SE 7th Avenue; on the east by the Intracoastal Waterway; and on the south by SE 4th Street. (Note: the multi-family properties at 35 and 45 SE 7th Avenue are not included in the district). The district consists of a variety of contributing historic residential and commercial resources built between 1922 and 1960, consisting of primarily Frame and Masonry Vernacular, Minimal Traditional, and Mediterranean Revival style homes, but also including a handful of other representative styles from the period, including Monterey, Ranch, Colonial Revival, Mission, and Art Moderne. National Register Bulletin 15, How To Apply the National Register Criteria for Evaluation states: "A district must be a definable geographic area that can be distinguished from surrounding properties by changes such as density, scale, type, age, style of sites, buildings, structures, and objects, or by documented differences in patterns of historic development or associations." and `The boundaries must be based upon a shared relationship among the properties constituting the district'. With regard to discontiguous districts, the bulletin states: `A district is usually a single geographic area of contiguous historic properties; however, a district can also be composed of two or more definable significant areas separated by nonsignificant areas'. `It is not appropriate to use the discontiguous district format to include an isolated resource or small group of resources which were once connected to the district, but have since been separated either through demolition or new construction'. As stated previously, the character of the 300 block of SE 7th Avenue has been adversely affected by the scale of the new construction along the Intracoastal Waterway, along with the new construction of the four-story townhomes contiguous to the west district boundary. These changes are both significant and irreversible. Currently, there are two contributing structures in the 300 block as depicted on the map from the original designation report: 708 SE 3~d Street and 603 SE 4th Street. However, 603 SE 4th Street has been so significantly altered that its integrity has been compromised. The subject resurvey has identified five additional contributing structures located at 300, 303, 305, 330, and 340 SE 7th Avenue. The structures at 300, 303, and 305 SE 7th Avenue are contiguous to the Marina Historic District to the north and are in good condition, relatively unaltered, and associated with the Blank family. Therefore, it is recommended that these properties are classified as contributing and remain within the historic district. The structures at 330 and 340 SE 7th Avenue, however, are not contiguous with the historic district and, as stated above, it is not appropriate to use the discontiguous district format to include isolated resources or small groups of resources. It is recommended therefore that the Marina Historic District boundary is amended as shown in Figure 3 to include the resources at 708 SE 3~d Street and 300, 303, and 305 SE 7th Avenue, but that the remainder of the 300 block to the south of these resources is removed. It is acceptable to exclude part of a block from a historic district where a change in density, scale, type, age, style of sites, buildings, structures, and objects, or by documented differences in patterns of historic development or associations is evident. This was previously done during the original designation of the Marina Historic District in 1988 when the district boundary excluded the newer multi-family properties at 35 and 45 SE 7th Avenue. Consideration should be given to adding 330 and 340 SE 7th Avenue to the Local Register; however, it is noted that there is a pending demolition application for 340 SE 7th Avenue. It should be further noted that 24 SOURCE: DELRAY BEACH AERIAL MAPPING (2008) RECOMMENDED BOUNDARY OF MARINA HISTORIC DISTRICT (SHOWN IN RED) EXISTING BOUNDARY OF MARINA HISTORIC DISTRICT (SHOWN IN BLUE) FIGURE 3 RECOMMENDED BOUNDARY OF THE MARINA HISTORIC DISTRICT 25 Final Report June 13, 2008 Resurvey of the Marina Historic District the structure at 332 SE 7th Avenue may be eligible for Local Register listing in the future but at present falls outside the Period of Significance. It is unfortunate that the district should be reduced in size due to inappropriate development; however, this amendment to the boundary will increase the overall significance of the remaining district, increase the percentage of contributing structures, prevent future development applications from comparing the larger size and scale of new homes along the Intracoastal Waterway and potentially make the balance of the district eligible for inclusion on the National Register of Historic Places. The existing Period of Significance for the Marina Historic District spans from 1922 through 1943. It is recommended that a second Period of Significance be adopted which spans from 1947 through 1960. This period reflects the post-World War II development within the Marina Historic District and includes additional significant resources designed in the Frame and Masonry Vernacular, Minimal Traditional, Mediterranean Revival, Ranch, and Art Moderne styles. 26 Final Report Resurvey of the Marina Historic District June 13, 2008 Table 3 Contributing Resources in the Marina Historic District Survey Area East Atlantic PB00244 1940 The Presidential Building/Turner Property 700-708 Avenue Art Moderne East Atlantic PB10155 1931 812-814 Avenue Mission East Atlantic PB00245 1939 The Boyd Building 816-840 Avenue Art Moderne PB13901 1960 24-26 Marine Way Frame Vernacular PB00264 1925 30 Marine Way Mediterranean Revival PB13902 1926 46 Marine Way Mediterranean Revival PB00265 1925 48 Marine Way Mediterranean Revival PB00266 1940 54 Marine Way Minimal Traditional PB10290 1941 The Anchorage 60 Marine Way Monterey PB00267 1937 Marine Villas 110 Marine Way Mediterranean Revival PB00269 1940 160 Marine Way Minimal Traditional PB10276 1948 200 Marine Way Masonry Vernacular PB00298 1938 29 Palm Square Minimal Traditional PB10295 1938 33 Palm Square Minimal Traditional PB10296 1937 36 Palm Square Masonry Vernacular PB10294 1938 42 Palm Square Minimal Traditional PB10293 1940 49 Palm Square Minimal Traditional PB00299 1939 50 Palm Square Masonry Vernacular PB10292 1940 57 Palm Square Minimal Traditional PB00300 1928 60 Palm Square Mediterranean Revival PB10289 1940 65 Palm Square Minimal Traditional PB00374 1925 701 SE 1s' Street Frame Vernacular PB00375 1925 707 SE 1s' Street Frame Vernacular PB13903 1953 705-711 SE 2nd Street Masonry Vernacular PB10269 1925 708 SE 3~d Street Mission PB10297 1925 9 SE 7'h Avenue Craftsman Bungalow PB10288 1939 55 SE 7'h Avenue Ranch PB13904 1950 101 SE 7'h Avenue Masonry Vernacular PB00465 1937 The Mews at Sloan Hammock 102 SE 7'h Avenue Masonry Vernacular PB10287 1925 Sloan Hammok 106 SE 7'h Avenue Mission PB10286 1935 (East Building) 118 SE 7'h Avenue Frame Vernacular PB13906 1935 (West Building) 118'/2 SE 7'h Avenue Frame Vernacular 27 Final Report June 13, 2008 PB10285 1935 (East Building) Resurvey of the Marina Historic District 122 SE 7'" Avenue Frame Vernacular PB13907 1953 123 SE 7'h Avenue PB10283 1949 126 SE 7'h Avenue PB10284 1951 127 SE 7'h Avenue PB00466 1925 129 SE 7'h Avenue PB10281 1939 130 SE 7'h Avenue PB10282 1925 131 SE 7'h Avenue PB10279 1947 134 SE 7'h Avenue PB10277 1947 138 SE 7'h Avenue PB10278 1925 West (Front) Building 139 SE 7'h Avenue PB13908 1960 East (Rear) Building 139 SE 7'h Avenue PB13909 1928 East (Rear) Building 143 SE 7'h Avenue PB10275 1945 First Church of Christ Scientist 200 SE 7'h Avenue PB13911 1954 203 SE 7'h Avenue PB13912 1948 209 SE 7'h Avenue PB13913 1951 213 SE 7'h Avenue PB13914 1922 214 SE 7'h Avenue PB13915 1959 Fontaine Fox North Building 218 SE 7'h Avenue PB10273 1935 219 SE 7'h Avenue PB10274 1937 Fontaine Fox Middle Building 222 SE 7'h Avenue PB10272 1937 Fontaine Fox South Building 228 SE 7'h Avenue PB10271 1938 232 SE 7'h Avenue PB13918 1957 300 SE 7'h Avenue PB13919 1954 303 SE 7'h Avenue PB10268 1947 305 SE 7'h Avenue 28 Final Report Resurvey of the Marina Historic District June 13, 2008 7.0 Summary, Conclusions, and Recommendations 7.1 Summary and Conclusions Between May 10 and May 16, 2008, GAI Consultants (GAI) conducted the resurvey of the Marina Historic District within the corporate limits of the city for the City of Delray Beach Planning and Zoning Department. GAI's background research included a review of previous architectural surveys, published histories of the City of Delray Beach and Palm Beach County, informant interviews, and historic maps and photographs. The GAI survey resulted in the completion of FMSF forms and photographs for 18 newly surveyed properties 35 years and older, as well as 45 survey updates. The survey identified 19 new contributing structures within the existing historic district boundary; however, this number reduces to 17 new contributing structures if the boundary is amended as recommended. The survey resulted in an illustrated historic context for the Marina Historic District's architectural resources. GAI evaluated the surveyed properties for individual listing in the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) and for designation as City of Delray Beach historic landmarks. GAI also evaluated the surveyed properties as contributing resources to the historic district eligible for the NRHP and/or as the Marina Historic District. 7.2 Recommendations ® Integrate the FMSF forms and photographs of the Marina Historic District Resurvey with the files of previously surveyed historic resources at the City of Delray Beach Planning and Zoning Department and the Delray Beach Historical Society, where they should be made available for review and copying by the general public. ® Consider funding for National Register of Historic Places nominations for the aforementioned Marina Historic District. The City should be sure to involve property owners and local neighborhood preservation groups during the nomination process. This should include an educational component, as many individual property owners in the survey area are not aware of the benefits afforded to them if their property is NRHP listed. ® Consider amending the existing Marina Historic District boundary as recommended. ® Consider individual National Register and Local Register designation for the resources identified in Table 2. ® Promote the City of Delray Beach Historic Marker program to clearly identify the city's historic landmarks from the road. This will boost community pride in local historic properties and will encourage residents to preserve and maintain historic properties. ® As public education should be a continuing goal of historic preservation in the City of Delray Beach, this report and its recommendations should be made available for public inspection on-line from the City web site. Additional copies of the report should be distributed to public libraries in the City of Delray Beach. The website should also incorporate the results of GAI's GIS mapping, to assist property owners and researchers in identifying locations of surveyed resources. 29 Final Report June 13, 2008 8.0 References Cited Britt, Lora S.

Criterion B: Properties that are associated with the lives of persons significant in our past. Criterion C: Properties that embody the distinctive characteristics of a type, period, or method of construction or that represent a significant and distinguishable entity whose components may lack individual distinction. Criterion D: Properties that have yielded, or may be likely to yield, information important in prehistory or history. Criteria Considerations (Exceptions) Ordinarily cemeteries, birthplaces, or graves of historical figures, properties owned by religious institutions or used for religious purposes, structures that have been moved from their original locations, reconstructed historic buildings, properties primarily commemorative in nature, and properties that have achieved significance within the past 50 years shall not be considered eligible for the National Register. However, such properties will qualify if they are integral parts of districts that do meet the criteria or if they fall within the following categories: A. a religious property deriving primary significance from architectural or artistic distinction or historical importance; or B. a building or structure removed from its original location but which is significant primarily for architectural value, or which is the surviving structure most importantly associated with a historic person or event; or C. a birthplace or grave of a historical figure of outstanding importance if there is no other appropriate site or building directly associated with his or her productive life; or D. a cemetery which derives its primary significance from graves of persons of transcendent importance, from distinctive design features, or from association with historic events; or E. a reconstructed building when accurately executed in a suitable environment and presented in a dignified manner as part of

MEMORANDUM STAFF REPORT MEETING OF: FEBRUARY 18, 2009 ITEM: CONSIDERATION OF ORDINANCE 10-09 AMENDING THE LAND DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS OF THE CITY OF DELRAY BEACH, FLORIDA, BY AMENDING SECTION 4.5.1, "HISTORIC PRESERVATION SITES AND DISTRICTS", SUBSECTION (L), "DESIGNATION OF HISTORIC DISTRICTS", SUBSECTION (2), "MARINA", TO PROVIDE FOR THE REMOVAL OF 12 PROPERTIES WITHIN THE MARINA HISTORIC DISTRICT AND AMENDING THE MARINA HISTORIC DISTRICT BOUNDARIES. ITEM BEFORE THE BOARD The following actions are before the Board: That of making a recommendation to the Planning and Zoning Board regarding Ordinance 10-09, with respect to the LDR Amendment to Section 4.5.1(L)(2), Marina, pursuant to LDR Section 2.2.6(D)(5). • That of making a recommendation to the City Commission regarding Ordinance 10-09 to provide for the removal of 12 properties from within the Marina Historic District (MHD), pursuant to Land Development Regulations (LDR) Section 4.5.1(N), Criteria for Removal of Historic Designation and 4.5.1(0), Procedures for Removal of Historic Designation; and, BACKGROUND The City hired GAI Consultants, Inc. to conduct a survey from April -June 2008 of the MHD. The objective was to survey all properties developed at least thirty-five years ago within the MHD which contain both contributing and non-contributing buildings and structures. A historical overview of the area was provided in the final report. The final survey report recommends that the following 12 properties within the 300 block of SE 7tn Avenue be removed from the MHD: Property Address Date Style 310 SE 7th Avenue 1992 Modern Frame Vernacular 314-318 SE 7th Avenue 1977 Masonry Vernacular 315 SE 7th Avenue 2005 Modern Mediterranean Revival 319 SE 7th Avenue 2004 Modern Mediterranean Revival 321 SE 7th Avenue 1992 Modern Masonry Vernacular 325 SE 7th Avenue 2004 Modern Mediterranean Revival 330 SE 7th Avenue* 1956 Masonry Vernacular 332 SE 7th Avenue 1962 Minimal Traditional 335 SE 7th Avenue 1999 Modern Mediterranean Revival 340 SE 7th Avenue* 1953 Masonry Vernacular 345 SE 7th Avenue 1996 Modern Masonry Vernacular 350 SE 7th Avenue/603 SE 4th Street 1938 Minimal Traditional " Recommended to be reclassified to Contributing. The survey report justifies the removal of the area containing these properties as they "are not contiguous with the historic district,... and,... it is not appropriate to use the discontiguous district format to include isolated resources or small groups of resources" such as those identified at 330 and 340 SE 7tn Avenue. The attached Exhibit A illustrates the following: • Existing Marina Historic District Boundary • Proposed Marina Historic District Boundary • 330 and 340 SE 7th Avenue (recommended by GAI Consultants, Inc. to be reclassified as contributing) At its meeting of November 19, 2008, the Board considered Resolution 55-08, to accept the subject survey report and its recommendations. The Board's recommendation was to support the survey's findings as they relate to the removal of designation. The City Commission officially accepted the survey report and its findings on December 9, 2008 via Resolution 55-08 (see attachment). Ordinance 10-09 notes the Marina Historic District Resurvey Final Report as Attachment A, and refers to the list of properties to be removed as Attachment B. Consideration of the request for removal of designation is now before the Board. ANALYSIS Pursuant to LDR Section 2.2.6(A), a Historic Preservation Board for the City of Delray Beach is hereby created. The up rpose of this Board is to foster and promote the recognition, protection, enhancement and use of historic resources in the City of Delray Beach and to have a lay body which shall have authority to act on matters pertaining to historic preservation. Pursuant to LDR Section 2.2.6(D)(1), Duties, Powers, and Responsibilities, the Historic Preservation Board shall develop, maintain, and update a survey of archaeological sites, properties, buildings, structures, and districts of special historic, aesthetic, architectural, cultural, or social value or interest. The Board will endeavor to improve, expand, and make more accurate the survey as additional documents, information, oral histories, and other such materials may become available, and it will periodically reevaluate the survey. The Board will work with the City Historical Society, the State Bureau of Historic Preservation, and other appropriate public and nonprofit organizations in maintaining this survey. Pursuant to LDR Section 2.2.6(D)(2), Duties, Powers, and Responsibilities, the Historic Preservation Board shall nominate properties for designation, and regulate such properties, structures, buildings, sites, districts, and the like so designated as historic sites and/or historic districts. STAFF COMMENT: The LDRs specify that as part of the HPB duties, the Board shall protect historic resources, and update surveys of historic resources. The resurvey of the Marina Historic District complies with this requirement. LDR Section 4.5.1(N), Criteria for Change of Historic Designation (1) A survey of all historic districts may be conducted by the City every five (5) years. The survey report may recommend changes to the historic designation and/or classification of properties located within or immediately adjacent to a designated historic district. (a) Criteria for Removal from a Historic District: If a survey reveals that a part of a historic district that touches the edge of the boundary of the historic district as it existed at the time of original designation of that district or that was once part of a platted lot that touched the edge but has since been subdivided has had its historic integrity irreversibly compromised due to inappropriate development as determined by the survey consultant, then the offending part of the district may be removed and the boundary lines of the historic district revised to reflect the removal in accordance with LDR Section 4.5.1(0). STAFF COMMENT: The subject survey meets the criteria for change of historic designation as it recommends that a portion of the historic district be removed, all of which touch the district's boundary as it existed at the time of the original designation. Therefore, the subject removal of historic designation meets the criteria listed above. LDR Section 4.5.1(0), Procedures for Change of Historic Designation (1) Procedures for Removal from or Expansion of a Historic District: Applications shall be made to the Historic Preservation Board and maybe initiated by written request of.~ (c) Any owner(s) of a property to be removed or added based upon the recommendation of a City-initiated survey completed within twelve (12) months or less prior to application. Applications submitted by property owners shall include: 1. photographs and addresses of all properties that will be either removed from or added to the historic district and; "per the survey recommendations. 2. signatures of at least seventy-five percent (75%) of the property owners that are located in the area that will be removed from or added to the historic district. STAFF COMMENT: The subject application for removal of historic designation was submitted by two (2) property owners (designated as Authorized Agents) within 12 months of the survey's completion which was June 2008. The application included the required information noted above. Therefore, the subject application has been processed for HPB review. (3) The Planning and Zoning Director or his/her designee shall conduct a preliminary evaluation of the information provided on each application to determine if it generally conforms with criteria in LDR Section 4.5.1(N)(1). The Planning and Zoning Director or his/her designee shall then prepare a report which shall contain the following: (a) Change of Historic Designation: 1. Proposed revised legal boundaries of the historic district; 2. Analysis of the historic significance and character of the property(ies) to be removed from to the historic district; and 3. A staff recommendation as to whether or not the properties should be removed due to irreversible loss of historic integrity as a result of inappropriate development within a historic district or part of a district. STAFF COMMENT: The revised legal boundary noted in the attached Ordinance does not include those listed properties in Attachment B. There are two properties (330 and 340 SE 7th Avenue) within the area to be removed which were found to have significance within the district. These properties were not previously eligible for contributing classification. Those properties within the subject area to be removed which were previously classified as Contributing no longer exist as they were demolished and replaced with new construction. The other properties have either been recently constructed, are not eligible for contributing classification, or have not maintained their integrity. The Florida Master Site File Forms for 330 and 340 SE 7th Avenue note the following with respect to their significance: • 330 SE 7th Avenue - "This residence represents a style popular in the 1950s and illustrates the development history of the area. This resource could contribute to the Marina Historic District if the boundaries (were maintained) and the Period of Significance were extended." • 340 SE 7th Avenue -This residence represents a style popular in the 1960s and illustrates the development history of the area. This resource could contribute to the Marina Historic District if the boundaries (were maintained) and the Period of Significance were extended." While the above noted properties have maintained their integrity and are representative of their time periods, the report also justifies their removal as they "are not contiguous with the historic district,...and,...it is not appropriate to use the discontiguous district format to include isolated resources or small groups of resources." It is unfortunate that the area requested for removal has been so significantly altered from the district's designation only twenty years ago. The area originally contained smaller scaled homes original to the development of SE 7th Avenue. Nevertheless, the new development both along the east side of SE 7tn Avenue, and immediately adjacent to the district has greatly impacted the integrity of this area. Based on the analysis given in the GAI Consultants, Inc. final survey report and above, positive findings can be made with respect to LDR Section 4.5.1(N) and 4.5.1(0). First and Second Readings are anticipated at City Commission on Tuesday, March 3, 2009, and Tuesday, March 17, 2009, respectively. RECOMMENDATION By Separate Motions: Recommend approval to the Planning and Zoning Board regarding Ordinance 10-09, with respect to the LDR Amendment to Section 4.5.1(L)(2), Marina, pursuant to LDR Section 2.2.6(D)(5). Recommend approval to the City Commission of Ordinance 10-09 for the removal of historic designation of 12 properties from within the Marina Historic District. Prepared by: Amy E.

BACKGROUND The City hired RJ Heisenbottle Architects, Inc. to conduct a survey of the Del-Ida Park, Nassau Street, Old School Square, and West Settlers Historic Districts from July 2008 -January 2009. The objective was to survey all properties developed at least thirty-five years ago within each of the aforementioned districts and to identify those which contain both contributing and non-contributing buildings and structures. An historical overview of each area was provided in the final report. The City Commission reviewed the following recommendations of the final survey report for the Nassau Street Historic District at its workshop on February 10, 2009: That the Period of Significance (POS) be extended to 1964 (currently spans 1935 to 1943); That listing on the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) be sought for the entire district; and, That Ordinance 97-87 be amended to correct the name from Nassau Street Historic District to Nassau Park Historic District. Ordinance 13-09 provides for the POS extension to 1964, the reclassification of 5 properties, and the name change from Nassau Street Historic District to Nassau Park Historic District. Additional analysis is contained within the attached HPB Staff Report. Ordinance 13-09 also contains two attachments: Attachment A -Nassau Street Historic District Resurvey Report, and Attachment B -Nassau Street Historic District property list including dates of construction, architectural styles, and classifications. The recommendation for listing on NRHP will be explored in the coming months and, if supported, will be adopted by a separate Ordinance.

Heisenbottle Architects, P.A. (RJHA) to resurvey four areas within the city previously listed on the Local Register of Historic Places as Historic Districts. The four areas to be studied are Del-Ida Park, Nassau Park, Old School Square, and West Settlers Historic Districts. RJHA's task will be to prepare individual Survey Reports for each of the four historic districts that wil(provide the following information: • Historical overview of the district • Review existing criteria for determining contributing and non-contributing structures + Recommendations on extending Periods of Significance, where appropriate, within the district • Update Florida Master Site File forms for previously recorded structures • Prepare new Florida Master Site File forms for previously unrecorded structures • Prepare maps and photographs for all sites within the district The survey will be conducted for all structures that are thirty-five (3S) years or older. Information will be provided in both digital and paper format. This Survey Re o~rt covers the Nassau Park Historic District, originally designated in 19$8, after one of the most historically and architecturally significant houses in the area ("Seawinds" located at 234 South Ocean Boulevard) was demolished. At the time of designation the 50 year threshold for considering structures as contributing barely covered the original development period for Nassau Park (1935-1941). This report will review and make recommendations whether there is justification for extending the current Period of Significance as a tool for determining historical signifcance. BOUNDARIES The Nassau Park Historic District is clearly defined by the original boundaries of the development, the first planned residential development south of Atlantic Avenue and east of the lntracoastal Waterway. The district extends for two blocks along Nassau Street, from Venetian Drive to the west, to South Ocean Boulevard to the east. It includes single family residences within three separate subdivisions-John B. Reid's Village, Wheatley's and Nassau Park, from west to east. The district boundaries have become even more clearly defined as the surrounding area's density continues to increase with the construction of higher density, multi-family structures. 2 ..,.aa ~ 4 k ~ .. _ ~~ - - - ~ - 1 1 ~~ i r i 1 ., ~a ~ a ~ ~ ~ ; ..,,. •~ :rt---_ ~- ~~~ . . '-~__ °~ r - ^ .~~~ CONTEXT The Nassau Park Historic District consists of two blocks located in Delray Beach east of the Intracoastal Waterway and three blocks south of Atlantic Avenue, lying between Venetian Drive and South Ocean Boulevard. Its close proximity to the beach and to the downtown area of Delray Beach has made this a highly desirable neighborhood since it was originally conceived in 1935 as the first planned residential development south of Atlantic Avenue. The increasing development pressure that surrounds the Nassau Park Historic District contributes to its present day desirability, steadily rising property values and sense of urgency to preserve this small residential community as one of the few remaining historic enclaves representative of the early days of life in Delray Beach. It is important to note that the Period of Significance identified in the Nassau Park Local Register Historic District Designation Report coincides with the date of construction of the original structures of the Nassau Park residential development (1935-1941). The Period of Signifcance was later extended to 1943, but only five houses were built after that date, one in 1949, three in the 1950s and one in 19b4. Although the Nassau Park Historic District Designation Report, prepared in 1988, lists these later houses as being without historic significance, it also paints out that they do not adversely affect the aesthetic profile of the street. One reason why the Designation Report identifies the later houses as being without historic significance is that they had not achieved the fifty year threshold generally required as one of the criteria for historic designation at the time when the report was prepared. One of the objectives of the Delray Beach "Resurvey of Four Local Register Historic District" project is to expand the Period of Significance so that structures that are thirty five (35) years or older may be recorded in the Florida Master Site File, thus providing a "cushion" for this data base to 6e up to date when considering structures' eligibility for listing as "contributing" within designated historic districts. After careful study of the buildings within the district boundary, it is our recommendation that the Period of Significance should be extended up to 1964, the date when the last of the single family residences in the Nassau Park Historic District was built. In observing the development patterns of Delray Beach and particularly of those areas surrounding the Nassau Park Historic District, it becomes evident that no substantial development changes took place from the Resort Era of the 30's and 40's decade until the latter part of the 1960s and early years of the 1970s. Whether along the commercial areas such as Atlantic Avenue or in the single family residential areas such as Nassau Street, buildings were predominantly of small scale, low rise construction. The Delray Summit Apartments, built at 1000 Lowry Street in 1965 and the Barrton Building, constructed along the Intracoastal Waterway in 1971, are among the first multi-family high rise structures in Delray Beach. Although it is true that these buildings paved the way for a new large scale development trend in the community, this trend had not quite started by the recommended 1964 cut-aff date for the Period of Significance and its impact on the Nassau Park neighborhood was nowhere to be found yet. 4 Just Iike the development trend in Nassau Park remained constant from the 1930s through the 1960s, albeit slower after the initial construction boom, so did the overall building typology. Although the few houses constructed between the 1950s and the 1960s may lean more towards the Ranch Style popular in those years or towards a simple masonry vernacular type, their use of scale, setback and materials still convey a cohesive architectural aesthetic within the district. The dramatic contrast of the larger scale development that currently surrounds the Nassau Park Historic District further reinforces that the architectural and contextual significance of this compact, single-family residential area, is the result of the "tout ensemble" of structures contained within the district's boundaries, including those of later construction date. Therefore, all the single family residential units built in the two block stretch of Nassau Street between 1930s and the 1960s are recommended to be considered as contributing structures to the Nassau Park Historic District. HISTORICAL SIGNIFICANCE The continuous period of settlement and development of Delray Beach traces back to 1894 when William S. Linton, U.S. Congressman from Saginaw, Michigan, purchased a half section of land in the area we know today as Delray Beach from the original homesteaders. Mr. Linton, encouraged by the development opportunities that Henry M. Flagler's extension of the Florida East Coast Railway brought to the South Florida area, started a settlement, recorded the town plat and named the town after himself. But soon after, when a hard freeze devastated the local crops, Mr. Linton fell on hard times and defaulted on his land payments. Some of the early settlers left, while W.W. Blackmer rallied those who remained and renamed the town Delray, after a section in his hometown of Detroit, Michigan. During the early years Delray developed as an agricultural and fishing community, aided by the railroad that facilitated transport of crops to points north. Pineapples and tomatoes were big contributors to the early local economy. Delray received many bloc ribbons at the Palm Beach County Fair for its produce, and in fact, during a Fourth of July parade in 1914, the town sported a float dressed up as a giant tomato. The lure of the warm climate and beautiful beaches soon began to attract visitors to the town of Delray. In 1902 the Chapman lnn opened as the first building dedicated to hotel use. In 1911, after the Bradshaw family relocated to Delray from their native Kentucky, they began renting rooms to fellow Kentuckians arriving to settle or to visit. Their house became known as the Kentucky House. By 1920 the Bradshaw family had expanded their operation to a full fledged hotel. But it was the real estate boom of the 1920s that had the most profound impact in turning Delray into a resort town. Eight new hotels, among them the Alterep, later renamed the Colony, the Seacrest, and the Casa Del Rey, became destination places for visitors from up north. While tourism was claiming an important role in the local economy, the town was also attracting a new breed of prominent seasonal residents, who made Delray their winter home. In 1927 the town of Delray and the town of Delray Beach merged and incorporated as the City of Delray Beach. The permanent population grew to about 2,000; a new high school was built, along with places of worship, theaters, golf and polo sports clubs, and commercial establishments. Delray Beach clearly left its imprint on the Florida map during the 20s decade. Although the Stock Market Crash and the Great Depression were felt in Delray Beach like elsewhere during the 1930s, the blow was lessened by the fact that the community had developed a strong colony of winter residents who kept coming back. These were not the very wealthy of Palm Beach who may have been hardest hit by the Depression, but rather a group of artists, writers, entertainers, sports figures and socialites who could afford, and looked forward to, a winter getaway from the hard realities of the times. This resulted in a surge in new construction of fairly modest residential and commercial buildings. While Delray Beach was ranked 50th in population in Florida during the 1930x, it was also ranked 10th in the state In neW COrlstrUCtlOn. One of the areas that flourished during the 1930s was Nassau Park. Originally platted as Asbury Park Heights, it was renamed Nassau Park in 1935 by developer R.C. McNeill, who commissioned architect Sam Ogren, Sr. to design the first house, located at 234 South Ocean Boulevard in 1935, now demolished. Sam Ogren Sr. was recognized as the mast prominent early architect in Delray Beach, for his designs of the 1925 High Schaal and Gymnasium at Old School Square, the Arcade Building on Atlantic Avenue and Marine Villas in the Marina Historic District. Ogren Sr. is referred to as the "Father of Delray Beach Architecture". Barn in 1899 in China, Ogren Sr. had no formal architectural training, yet he was a registered architect who went on to design over 200 local buildings, mostly in the Spanish and Mediterranean Revival style. Considered to be the first planned residential development south of Atlantic Avenue, Nassau Park's close proximity to the beautiful sandy beaches and the charming, simple yet stylish architecture of its small scale houses made this neighborhood highly desirable and successful from its inception. A newspaper article from the Delra Beach News dated February 1, 1935 for Ray-Del Realty Co. describes Nassau Park as "West Indian Charm Along Delray Shares". The ad further proclaims "We will build to suit your own needs, charming Nassau cottages, designed by our own architects, containing two and three bedrooms at costs amazingly moderate". Although it does not specifically name Samuel Ogren Sr. as the architect, since he was contracted to design the house at 234 South Ocean Boulevard which served as the model, it is possible that Ogren Sr. may have been involved in the design of the other houses in the original development. Eighteen houses were built between 1935 and 1941. Four additional houses were built after the initial planned development phase, two during the 1950s and two during the 1960s. The original houses were simple cottages and have been described in the "Nassau Park Historic District Designation Report" as inspired by the Colonial-Cape Cad Revival Style (See Architectural Significance Section). The Designation Report best describes Nassau Park as evoking "a memory of prosperity, pleasure, leisured relaxation and style which was the essence of 1930s life in Delray Beach". b ' r- - r ~~ ~; N.'-yam:. "SEAWINDS". 234 SOUTH OCEAN BOULEVARD. 1935 FIRST HOUSE IN NASSAU PARK The fve houses built in Nassau Park in subsequent years did not follow the same exact architectural style of their prcdccessars. Yet their scale, setbacks and materials allow them to blend into a harmonious whale, all of them pieces of the same fabric that distinguishes this neighborhood from the rest of its rapidly changing surroundings. The stability of the area is most notable, having escaped after over seventy years since its creation with hardly any of the original buildings being demolished or new intrusions being added. One of the original houses dating back to 1935, located at 234 South Ocean Boulevard, was demolished in 1988 to make room for a much larger multi-family residential structure. This action could have signaled the end of Nassau Park as a single family residential neighborhood by bringing about a domino effect of new development and construction. lnstead, that single demolition became the rallying cry that resulted in the designation of the Nassau Park Historic District. Today the area is flourishing and most of the small quaint cottages have undergone substantial rehabilitation by caring owners who appreciate the historic value of their properties. This in turn has resulted in a marked increase in property values for the neighborhood, which is still, or again, like in its heyday, one of the most desirable places to live in Delray Beach. 7 ~~ ones by combining a two story mass with a smaller one story wing or extension, thus breaking down the overall size of the structure. The five houses that were built subsequent to the original development for the most part digressed from the Cottage style in favor of a more generic 1950s Ranch-inspired vernacular. The house located at 1009 Nassau Street is an exception. It is the last house to be built within the district boundaries, yet its design is a fine example of the small scale cottage design that characterizes the original structures in the district. The residences located at 235 Venetian Drive and at 1010 Nassau Street, however, are fine representatives of the trend toward the Ranch style of construction, while maintaining the cohesive typology of the overall district. Similarly, the houses have undergone alterations and additions over the years without significantly detracting from the visual character and intent of the original development. The house located at 1109 Nassau Street is set back in the property, and a two story garage structure was built on the front portion of the lot. Although the appropriateness of this addition may be questionable due to its location on the site, it is still well integrated with the streetscape by the use of materials and details, including the use of a second story balcony with wooden railings that softens the overall appearance of the new structure. In spite of stylistic variations, alterations and additions, the single family residences that comprise the Nassau Park Historic .District maintain and contribute to the sense of place of the neighborhood by their cohesiveness of scale, setbacks, use of materials and overall character. It is that sense of place that makes the Nassau Park Historic District special. This series of cottages are clearly distinct from anywhere else in Delray Beach. Other historic districts provide glimpses of the city's past through the architecture within their boundaries. Thus one can encounter examples of pioneer era frame vernacular structures such as the Sundy House and the Clark House, the Bahamian style Cathcart House, or a 1920s bungalow all within a short distance of each other along Swinton Avenue. Or even in sharper contrast may be fine examples of the Mission style and the more ornate Mediterranean Revival style just around the corner. This variety of styles lends a richness and historical continuity to the city's fabric. But in the carnpact, two-block-long stretch of the Nassau Park Historic District one steps back to one specific point in place and time-1930s beachside residential resort living in Delray Beach at its finest. ' RECOMMENDATIONS It is recommended that the Period of Significance for the Nassau Park Historic District be extended to 1964, to include the five additional structures built during the 1950s and 1960s decades. When the district was originally designated in 1988 many of the structures had barely achieved the 50 year threshold to be considered as "Contributing" under generally accepted criteria for historic designation. Twenty years later, the district maintains its historical and architectural integrity. Only one of the original structures has been demolished and no new construction other than the multi-family development located at 1180-1190 Nassau Street that replaced the demolished house has gone into the designated area. Although the five structures subsequent to the original development are not exactly built in the same architectural style, they are nevertheless single-family residences, consistent and compatible in scale, setback and materials with the overall character and intent of the original development. The recent development trend towards multi- family residential structures that surrounds the Nassau Park Historic District reinforces by contrast the 9 cohesiveness of the district and justifies deeming all of the single-family residences within the district boundaries as "Contributing Structures". When the Nassau Park Historic District was officially designated through Ordinance #97-87, a scrivener's or typographical error listed it as "Nassau Street Historic District". The historically accurate Warne and original intent of the historic district designation was always for the name to be recorded as "Nassau Park Historic District". 1t is, therefore, recommended that the above-referenced ordinance be amended to show the official name of the designated district as "Nassau Park Historic District". 1t is our professional opinion that the locally designated Nassau Park Historic District is potentially eligible for listing as a National Register Historic District. 1t is recommended that the City of Delray Beach consider undertaking the preparation of a National Register Historic District Nomination Proposal for Nassau Park Historic District. The existing level of documentation on the Florida Master Site File forms and an the Local Register Designation Report will need to be reinforced far a National Register nomination proposal. Additional information on the developers, architects and original owners will be necessary to make the district eligible for National Register listing, but the district's unique, fairly intact qualities will only increase its significance both under local and national eligibility criteria with the passing of time.

ITEM BEFORE THE BOARD The item before the Board is that of making a recommendation to the City Commission regarding Ordinance 13-09 providing for the acceptance of the resurvey report of Nassau Street Historic District including extension of the Period of Significance (POS) to 1964, and reclassifying 5 properties from non-contributing to contributing, pursuant to Land Development Regulations (LDR) Section 4.5.1(N), Criteria for Change of Historic Classification and 4.5.1(0), Procedures for Change of Historic Classification. BACKGROUND The City hired RJ Heisenbottle Architects, Inc. to conduct a survey of the Del-Ida Park, Nassau Street, Old School Square, and West Settlers Historic Districts from July 2008 -January 2009. The objective was to survey all properties developed at least thirty-five years ago within each of the aforementioned districts and to identify those which contain both contributing and non- contributing buildings and structures. A historical overview of each area was provided in the final report. The City Commission reviewed the recommendations of the final survey report for the Nassau Street Historic District at its workshop on February 10, 2009. The final report to be adopted is for the Nassau Street Historic District. The recommendations are as follows: That the Period of Significance* (POS) be expanded to 1964, which would reclassify the following properties from non-contributing to contributing: Property Address Date Style 1009 Nassau Street 1964 Cottage 1010 Nassau Street 1956 Ranch 1026 Nassau Street 1956 Masonry Vernacular 229-231 Venetian Drive 1949 Masonry Vernacular 235 Venetian Drive 1950 Ranch "The current Period of Significance spans from 1935 to 1943 • That listing on the National Register of Historic Places be sought for the entire district. • That Ordinance 97-87 be amended to correct the name from Nassau Street Historic District to Nassau Park Historic District. Period of Significance The resurvey report notes that since its 1988 designation, the Nassau Street Historic District has maintained "its historical and architectural integrity." The recommendation to extend the Period of Significance to 1964 has been justified in that it includes the later (eligible) development within the district. The development trends remained constant from the 1930s through the 1960s, as did the overall building typology. Although the few houses constructed between the 1950s and the 1960s may lean more towards the Ranch style popular in those years, the new structure's use of scale, setback, and materials still conveyed a cohesive architectural aesthetic within the district throughout the new POS. The POS extension would change the classification of five properties currently deemed non-contributing, which were constructed from 1949-1964. In addition, the report notes that the "cohesiveness of the district" is reinforced by the contrasting multi-family residential structures that surround the district. National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) Listing on the NRHP would provide additional recognition for the district, and additional review criteria or restrictions would not be placed on those properties located within the boundaries. While City Staff may proceed with an application for listing on the NRHP, research and application preparation assistance will be needed by residents within the district, or other interested parties. The application for listing would be processed via recommendation of support by the HPB to the City Commission. The HPB review should include property owners within the district as a way of keeping them informed and involved, and should occur prior to completion and submittal of the application. Once the application is submitted to the State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) for review, a letter or newspaper advertising will be provided, at which time a property owner will have the opportunity to formally support or object to the listing. Name Correction Ordinance 97-87 refers to the Nassau Street Historic District while the designation report refers to the more widely recognized name of Nassau Park Historic District. The survey recommends it be referred to as only the Nassau Park Historic District. This correction is provided for in the attached Ordinance, with the correction being made to the LDRs. Ordinance 13-09 includes Attachment A, the Final Report for the Nassau Street Historic District, and Attachment B, which notes each property and its date of construction, historic classification, and architectural style. Consideration of Ordinance 13-09 is now before the Board for review and recommendation to the City Commission. ANALYSIS Pursuant to LDR Section 2.2.6(A), a Historic Preservation Board for the City of Delray Beach is hereby created. The up rpose of this Board is to foster and promote the recognition, protection, enhancement and use of historic resources in the City of Delray Beach and to have a lay body which shall have authority to act on matters pertaining to historic preservation. Pursuant to LDR Section 2.2.6(D)(1), Duties, Powers, and Responsibilities, the Historic Preservation Board shall develop, maintain, and update a survey of archaeological sites, properties, buildings, structures, and districts of special historic, aesthetic, architectural, cultural, or social value or interest. The Board will endeavor to improve, expand, and make more accurate the survey as additional documents, information, oral histories, and other such materials may become available, and it will periodically reevaluate the survey. The Board will work with the City Historical Society, the State Bureau of Historic Preservation, and other appropriate public and nonprofit organizations in maintaining this survey. Pursuant to LDR Section 2.2.6(D)(2), Duties, Powers, and Responsibilities, the Historic Preservation Board shall nominate properties for designation, and regulate such properties, structures, buildings, sites, districts, and the like so designated as historic sites and/or historic districts. STAFF COMMENT: The LDRs specify that as part of the HPB duties, the Board shall protect historic resources, and update surveys of historic resources. The resurvey of the Nassau Street Historic District complies with this requirement. LDR Section 4.5.1(N), Criteria for Change of Historic Classification (1) A survey of all historic districts maybe conducted by the City every five (5) years. The survey report may recommend changes to the historic designation and/or classification of properties located within or immediately adjacent to a designated historic district. (b) Criteria for Change of Historic Classification: If a City-initiated survey conducted within the last five (5) years reveals that a property within a historic district should be reclassified as either contributing or non-contributing, then the classification may be revised in accordance with LDR Section 4.5.1(0) and shall be determined as follows: 1. The survey recommends the inclusion of an additional "Period of Significance'; which would reclassify properties from non-contributing to contributing, or; 2. The survey recommends that a property or properties have been so significantly altered that the changes are irreversible and have compromised the structures historic integrity of the structure, which would reclassify the structure from contributing to non-contributing. STAFF COMMENT: The subject survey meets the criteria for change of historic classification as it was conducted within the last 5 years (complete January 2009), and the survey recommends that the Period of Significance be adopted which would reclassify 5 properties from non-contributing to contributing. Therefore, the reclassifications of the aforelisted properties may be reviewed. LDR Section 4.5.1(0), Procedures for Change of Historic Designation and/or Classification (2) Procedures for Change of Historic Classification: Applications to change the historic classification of a property or properties within a historic district shall be made to the Historic Preservation Board and maybe initiated by written request of.~ (a) The Historic Preservation Board based upon the recommendations of a City- initiated survey completed within five (5) years prior to the application; or (b) The City Commission based upon the recommendations of aCity-initiated survey completed within five (5) years prior to the application; or (3) The Planning and Zoning Director orhis/her designee shall conduct a preliminary evaluation of the information provided on each application to determine if it generally conforms with criteria in LDR Section 4.5.1(N) (1). The Planning and Zoning Director or his/her designee shall then prepare a report which shall contain the following: (b) Change of Historic Classification: 1. Analysis of the properties to be reclassified; and 2. A staff recommendation as to whether or not the properties should be reclassified due to either. a. loss of historic integrity as a result of irreversible alterations to a contributing property; or b. inclusion of an additional "Period of Significance" per the survey recommendations. STAFF COMMENT: It has been determined that the subject request conforms with Section 4.5.1(N)(1), and the recommendations have been justified within the report with respect to the expansion of the POS to 1964. The information has been provided and reviewed by Staff and deemed to be complete. The properties recommended for reclassification were developed between 1949 and 1964 and have become a part of the historic Nassau Street streetscape. While they differ from the architectural style of the original development, they are compatible and illustrate the development typology of their time. Staff recommends that the POS expansion be accepted. Staff also recommends that the City support the application of the Nassau Park Historic District (name modified per subject Ordinance) to the NRHP with application preparation assistance provided by residents and interested parties, as well as the name clarification/change from Nassau Street to Nassau Park. RECOMMENDATION Recommend approval to the City Commission of Ordinance 13-09 providing for the reclassification of 5 properties from non-contributing to contributing, preparation of an application for listing on the National Register of Historic Places, and change of the name from Nassau Street to Nassau Park Historic District.

BACKGROUND The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) requires that unused CDBG funds from prior years shall be considered as funds available for reallocation unless the appropriation under which the funds were provided to the Department has lapsed. The 07/08 Action Plan was approved by HUD on October 17, 2007 and included $596,076 for the third year of the City's 2005-2010 Five-Year Consolidated Plan. The Plan reflected the provision of housing rehabilitation funds in the amount of $266,956. A portion of these funds remained unspent. The proposed amendment will reallocate $100,000 of unused funds toward Public Facilities and Improvements located within the CDBG target area. This will include but not be limited to the construction or installation of infrastructure improvements such as streets, curbs, water/sewer lines and/or sidewalks. This activity remains consistent with the City's Consolidated Plan priorities. Infrastructure improvements meet the Low-Moderate Income (LMI) Benefit National Objective since the activity will benefit all residents of an area where at least 51% of the residents are LMI. An advertisement regarding the reallocation of funds was published in the February 15, 2009 edition of the Boca /Delray New followed by a 30-day period in which written comments could be submitted. To date, no comments have been submitted. The amendment can be found on page 13 of the 07/08 Action Plan. FUNDING SOURCE Community Development Block Grant 118-1963-554-49.19 (FY07-08 Rollover funds) RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends approval to amend FY2007-2008 Annual Action Plan to include $100,000 toward funding Public Facilities and Improvements located within the CDBG target area. ~~~~~.~~~Nfit3~~~~~ ~i ~~ ~ ~ ` ~- ~~ ~ Third Pro ram Year 9 ~~ ~ ~~~~~~~~~~~ Action Plan The CPMP Third Annual Action Plan includes the SF 424 and Narrative Responses to Action Plan questions that CDBG, HOME, HOPWA, and ESG grantees must respond to each year in order to be compliant with the Consolidated Planning Regulations.

Program Year 3 Action Plan Executive Summary; During the 2007-2008 program year, the City of Delray Beach will continue to implement its 2005-2010 Five-Year Consolidated Plan. CDBG program funds wilt be enhanced through leveraging State and Local resources as well as private mortgage funds. The City expects to receive $596,076 in CDBG funds for the 2007-2008 program year, $576,008 in State Housing Initiatives Partnership (SHIP) funds, $2,].43,000 in DRI Program Funds and $149,000 in funding via revenue received from the repayment of an Urban Development Action Grant {UDAG) investment in support of our local Neighborhood Housing Program. 2007-2008 CDBG funds have been categorized into the following initiatives: Owner Occupied Housing Rehabilitation, Public Facilities and Infrastructure Improvements, Public Service (including funds in support of various social service activities as well as Fair Housing initiatives), Economic Development and Program Administration. General Questions Describe the geographic areas of the jurisdiction (including areas of law income families and/or racial/minority concentration} in which assistance will be directed during the next year. Where appropriate, the jurisdiction should estimate the percentage of funds the jurisdiction plans to dedicate to target areas. 2. Describe the basis for allocating investments geographically within the jurisdiction (ar within the EMSA for HOPWA) (91.215(a)(1)) during the next year and the rationale far assigning the priorities. 3. Describe actions that will take place during the next year to address obstacles to meeting underserved needs. Third Program Year Action Plan 1 Version 2.0 City of Delray Beach d-. Identify the federal, state, and local resources expected to be made available to address the needs identifiied in the plan. Federal resources should include Section 8 funds made available to the jurisdiction, Low-Income Housing Tax Credits, and competitive McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act funds expected to be available to address priority needs and specific objectives identified in the strategic plan. Program Year 3 Action Plan General Questions response; Activities and programs funded in the 2007-2008 Annual Action Plan focus on the area identified as the City of Delray Beach's CDBG target area which encompasses the residential core of the City. The boundaries of the CDBG target area extend from Lake Ida Road {north) to Linton Blvd. (south} and from Interstate 95 (west) to U.S. 1 (east). This area includes the downtown business district and twenty-eight residential neighborhoods. The majority of the City's minority and low- to moderate- income population is concentrated within the 728 acres that make up this residential core. The area contains approximately 2,224 dwelling units, including single-family, duplex, and multi-family units. A variety of affordable housing units have come on line within the designated target area over the past 10 years including two nwner- occupied single family subdivisions, 175 new infill single family units, 20 workforce town homes and a small amount of affordable rental units. During khe next program year, the City will gain an additional 23 affordable rental units which are currently under construction. The LaFrance Apartments will consist of 14 one bedroom units and is designed to accommodate low- to moderate-income senior citizens. 133 NW 5th Avenue will comprise of 9one-bedroom units which will be made available to low- to moderate- income residents upon its completion projected to be December 2007. The activities that will be implemented in fiscal year 2007-2008 have been developed to address priority needs, strategies and objectives identified in the 2005-2010 Consolidated Plan. These priorities as stated in the five-year plan are to; 1 -Improve existing neighborhoods by constructing infill housing, renovate existing housing, and make infrastructure improvements; 2 -- Eliminate conditions detrimental to health, safety, and welfare of citizens within the City; and 3 - Encourage private investment and economic growth within target area neighborhoods. In 2007-2008, the City of Delray Beach will continue providing funding for a variety of housing and community development projects and programs designed to meet the diverse needs of its citizens.

InstEtutional Structure 1. Describe actions that will take place during the next year to develop institutional structure. Program Year 3 Action Plan Institutional Structure response: The Year 3 Action Plan is to be carried out through a network of public, private, and non-profit organizations, many of which participated in the public participation process. The City's Community Improvement Department has been working with these agencies to construct affordable housing, improve neighborhoods, aid establish services for all segments of the City's population. Measurable strengths of the delivery system of housing and community development programs include the number of lenders and financial institutions participating in the Community Land Trust/ Purchase Assistance Program, as well as the number of foundations and non- profit agencies in the community actively participating in a variety of activities benefiting the community. The City works very closely with the Delray Beach Housing Authority (DBHA} which currently manages the City's section-8 program. The DBHA is a public housing authority separately chartered under State law responsible to a Board of Directors. The City of Delray Beach City Commission appoints the seven-member Board of Directors for the DBHA. The DBHA Board hires its own executive director, who is responsible for hiring, contracting and procurement, provision of services, review of proposed development sites, and comprehensive planning of the public housing authority. The DBHA submits a Public Mousing Agency Plan which details the housing authority's plans for the next five years and their priorities (incorporated in this plan by reference). Over the years the City Commission has supported the DBHA by providing funds far infrastructure improvements within the DBHA complex and providing funds to assist with the acquisition of property adjacent to the DBHA property for future expansion, Third Program Year Action Plan S Version 2.0 City of Delray Beach Construction or demolition projects initiated by the DBHA are subject to the City's permitting and inspection process. One of the strengths of the DHBA is the longevity of its administrative personnel. The Executive Director (formerly the Community Development Administrator for the City} has held that position for more than 10 years. This provides program continuity and stability. The largest gap for the DHBA is the need for additional affordable housing due ko the loss of 198 units when the Housing Authority's only public housing facility was severely damaged by Hurricane Wilma on October 24, 2005. On October 27, 2005, the City of Delray Beach declared the units uninhabitable due to extreme structural damage caused by the hurricane. Consequently, the units remained vacant with issues of safety, community health and unsightliness blight upon the neighborhood. In order to address this pressing issue, The City applied on behalf of the DBHA for funds from the Department of Community Affairs, Disaster Recovery Initiative 2005. In doing so, the City secured $900,000 in funding to demolish the obsolete public housing complex known as Carver Estates. Plans are underway to build a diversity of housing choices for a mix of incomes, with a strong base of affordable housing units on a combined 50 acre site. The acres owned by the DBHA will consist of 264 attainable rental units under Florida Tax Credit Program. It is anticipated that the project will be built out by the end of 2008. A joint planning committee consisting of the Directors of the Community Improvement and Planning & Zoning Departments, the Executive Director of the Community Redevelopment Agency, the Executive Director and Economic Development Coordinator of the Delray Beach Housing Authority along with their contracted consultant and the selected developer, Auburn Group.

Describe the actions that will take place during the next year to remove barriers to affordable housing. Program Year 3 Action Plan Barriers to Affordable Housing response: Eliminating barriers to affordability has been the primary objective of the Community Land Trust program since its inception in 2006. In July of that year the City transitioned its First Time Homebuyer Program, which provided traditional down payment assistance, into aSub-recipient Partnership Program with the Community Land Trust (CLT) for the purpose of creating affordable homeownership opportunities. Under the Sub-recipient Housing Partnership Program, subsidy is awarded {based on occupants income eligibility) to the CLT to be applied towards the principal reduction of construction costs of CLT units. This strategy enhances each unit's affordability by keeping the subsidy joined to the unit as opposed to the occupant. Buying down the cost of each unit reduces the sales price for the occupant and enhances the unit's affordability in perpetuity. During the 07-08 program year SHIP funds will be utilized for this purpose. The City currently utilizes its Workforce Housing Ordinance in an effort to create additional affordable and workforce housing throughout the City. The ordinances relax some regulatory {zoning} restrictions in designated areas, allowing increased density in exchange for affordable housing units, The City expanded the program in 2007 to include additional RM zoned areas throughout the City.

Antipoverty Strategy 1. Describe the actions that will take place during the next year to reduce the number of poverty level families. Program Year 3 Action Plan Antipoverty Strategy response: The goals, objectives and ackians outlined in this 2005-2010 Consolidated Plan and in this 2007-2008 Action Plan are intended, in al! cases, to assist those currently living in poverty by providing them with resources to move out of poverty, or to assist those in danger of moving into poverty to remain out of poverty. The City's holistic approach to community development provides various programming efforts and initiatives aimed at reducing the number of poverty level families. Various partnerships with area social service and housing provider agencies greatly increase the effectiveness and efficiency of our commitment. The Florida Housing Finance Corporation approved the 2007-10 Local Housing Assistance Alan {CHAP) prepared by the City's Community Development Division, The CHAP includes local housing assistance strategies for utilizing SHIP funds, and local housing incentive strategies for affordable housing development. The City is unable to assess the extent to which its current housing policies and programs might assist in reducing the number of households with incomes below the poverty level. The Defray Beach Housing Authority's Family Self-Sufficiency (FSS) Program serves as an anti-poverty tool. The program provides a holistic approach to service delivery that includes homeownership, adult education, vocational training, social and economic counseling, employment counseling and placement, medical screenings, and transportation assistance. Afamily-centered approach is utilized as weft, so that the needs of each family are addressed. To date the program has assisted over 20 families in obtaining homeownership. In addition, the DBHA applies for Section 8 rental assistance whenever HUD makes funds available. Both the City_ and the DBHA follow HUD guidelines pertaining to Section 3, which require contractors working on projects funded with HUD dollars to be diligent in attempting to hire low-income persons.

ATTEST: City Clerk MAYOR First Reading Second Reading 4 ORD NO. 12-09 MEMORANDUM TO: Mayor and City Commissioners FROM: Terrill C. Pyburn, Assistant City Attorney THROUGH: Susan A. Ruby, City Attorney David T. Harden, City Manager DATE: February ll, 2009 SUBJECT: AGENDA ITEM 12.B. -REGULAR COMMISSION MEETING OF MARCH 3, 2009 ORDINANCE NO. 12-09 ITEM BEFORE COMMISSION Ordinance No. 12-09. BACKGROUND The attached Ordinance updates our alarm ordinance to provide for "Limited Response" for an alarm user's: . Failure to register his/her alarm within thirty (30) days of notice of same; . Failure to provide a written "Affidavit of Service/Repair" within thirty (30) days of false alarm; . Failure to pay response fees for false alarms, where such fees are overdue by more than one hundred twenty (120) days; or . Failure to appear within thirty (30) minutes of notice to respond, if such failure has occurred four (4) or more times within a registration period. Also, we have provided for enforcement via civil citation with appeals to be heard through the City's Hearing Officer. Some portions of our existing Alarm Ordinance have proven very difficult to enforce and numerous false alarm fees go uncollected. We believe that the proposed amendments, developed jointly by the Police Department, Code enforcement and the City Attorney's Office, will streamline enforcement and reduce the number of false alarms to which our Police Department responds. False responses currently waste large amounts of sworn officer's time. RECOMMENDATION That the proposed amendments to our Code be adopted. S L / '~` S T'Y Off' DEL EACH, Petitioner, espadent.
