A regular meeting of the City Council of De]may Beach was held
in the Council Chambers at 8:00 P.M., with Mayor George V. Warren in
the Chair, City Manager Louis J. Smitzes, City Attorney John Ross
Adams and Councilmen A1C. Avery, Dugal G. Campbell, Glenn B. ~undy
and John A. Thayer being present.
1. An opening prayer was delivered by the Reverend Paul Smith.
2. On motion b2 M~. Sundy and seconded by H~. Thayer the minutes
of the November 6th Council meeting were unanimously approved.
3. Mr. Owen Bancroft and Mr. LeRoy OtBryan objected to two small
single family dwellings being built in an R-2 Zoning District on a
single lot at N. E. ?th Avenue and 7th Street.
Mayor Warren asked'the City Manager and City Attorney to give
a report as to the legality of the building permit that has been
issued for same.
City Attorney Adams informed the Council that he has not had
sufficient time tO study in order to give an answer and asked that
there be more time granted in order that a decision may be reached.
Following discussion, Mr. Sundy moved that the City Attorney
· be given the rest of the evening to make a decision, the motion being
seconded by Mr. Thayer. Following further discussion the motion and
second were withdrawn and Mr. Sundy moved that after the other busi-
ness had been taken care of that the Council' recess for whatever time
it takes for the City Attorney to render a decision on this question.
The motion was seconded by Mr. Thayer and carried unanimously.
4. Mayor Warren read the following letter, signed by himself, and
stated that it had been written in cooperation with most of the
Council.
"A situation has developed in Delmay Beach whereby it is apparent
that many are opposed to the position taken by the Council on the
matter of sanitary sewers.
"Some of those opposed have indicated they favor a plan that would
cover the city as a whole .and further would build an'ocean outfali.
This is most decidedly what the Council favors and hopes to see
brought to completion. The only difference is that we, the Council,
do not believe that the overall system should be built, or could be
built, at this time. However, we favor building this first step now
and follow through on the next phase when it is indicated that we can
do so without pledging our entire credit.
"It should be remembered that we favor the outfall as now being ap-
praised by the State Boar~ of Health, but it must also be remembered
that this, when built, must be built large enough' in one step to per-
mit the last hook-up that will be made in the city. It canno.~ be
added to, as it will lay on the ocean bottom, not in a street.
Attention is directed to this important fact, that the plant is re-
commended be built now becomes a lift station in the overall outfall
system, and this without any loss of capital investment when the
changeover is made.
"We will continue to grow, and the areas within the present city
limits will fill in, the areas within the extremes of the present
lines will also fill in, and as each additional connection is made
we will come that much nearer to being able to go for the 22 section
overall plan with the outfall included.
"We must build this part of the plant and continue to build, using
the Special Assessment Bonds, not General Obligation Bonds, for many
sound reasons .' '
1. One large section of our city, Tropic Isle, has a contract
whereby they will build a special, separate plant. Therefore, they
would certainly object to General Obligation Bonds.
2. Many outlying sections such as Sherwood Park will not be
sewered for some years and the owners certainly would have the right
to seriously object.
· 11-13-61
NOVEMBER 13, 1961.
"3. "Other areas are not built up and owners of vacant proper-
ties in.h-these areas - as well as others - would shame the cost with-
out benefit of the service, and that is not the American way of doing
thing~.
4. Our credit would be stretched to its limit, and facing a
world situation such as we are, it does not seem wise to undertake
the overall plan, definitely so when it is so apparent that this
first step can be taken now without risk and at a cost to those bene-
fited actually below, what the cost to the same people would be if the
overall plan was put into effect at this time.
"It must be remembered that the State Health Department insists on
the clean-up of the Inland Waterway. They will not permit continued
pollution of these waters and we should certainly agree with them
that this must not be continued.
"The Council is not against a referendum, but does question the ad-
visability of one at this time. Suppose one was taken and the vote
showed the overall plan was favored. How would it be financed? This
is the question that we, the Council, must keep before us at all
times, Further, if it was ,voted, and by chance we were able to start,
what would happen if we found ourselves in a hot war, with supplies
cut off not only to complete ou~ plant but also in such a manner that
prohibited further home building? The payments on principal and in-
terest have to be met, and this could well fall on a limited number.
Surely you remember what happened in 1942, and how quickly materials
went off the market. It could, and would, happen again.
"We hope the above will be given your consideration, and donft accept
as a fact that we want to dictate, or that we are afraid of the re-
sults of a referendum beyond that fear given above. We have lived
with this problem for a long time and have spent hours in study, and
we strongly advise that this first step in the overall outfall plan
be taken now and that we wait for the completion until such time as
conditions warrant."
Mayor Warren then read the following letter written to the Board
of Directors of the 'First Baptist Church by Ralph H. Baker, Jr. Di-
rector of Division of Waste Water of the Florida State Board of Health
dated November 10, 1961.
"This is to acknowledge receipt of youm telegram dated November 9,
1961 addressed to Mr. Lee, with reference to the proposed new sewage
treatment plant to be constructed at Delray Beach. '- .. ..
"Please be advised that this treatment plant will be a conventional
activated sludge type sewage treatment plant. This is to be the
first step in a program for this City, with the ultimate method of
disposal either being by an ocean outfall or a plant enlargement of
this first submission.
"The activated sludge process is one of the highest degrees of treat-
ment given sewage in this country. It is a plant similar to that now
in existence at the City of Coral Gables, Florida. Due to the use of
induced air in the aeration tanks, the event of objectionable odors,
if the plant is operated properly, is minimized.
"~Pe also note that the location of the plant from your property is
away from the prevailing winds. We are sorry to inform you that we
cannot refuse to approve this plant due to its type. The problem of
location is a matter for you to take up with local zoning. We are
told that the property that this plant is to be placed upon is owned
by the City and is on property adjacent to the existing water treat-
ment plant."
Mr. Avery read the following letter from himself.
"I understand that since the maJori.ty of the council has voted on
this issue to install this small plant, they have the right to say,
'We, the council., However I must retain m~ right as councilman to
speak up on what I think is right, and what I think is wrong.
-2- 11-13-61
NOVEMBER 13, 1961.
"I do believe that the overall system should be built, and could be
buir~ at this time.
"I do not think that we, nor those who will pick up the reins after
we leav-~this council can afford to sit back and refuse to face the
responsibility of what will mean savings of thousands of dollars to
us and future tax payers.
"The fact that certain members of this council are ~ favoring the
out-fall means of disposal is 'most gratifying. I can remember only
nine months ago when Vice-mayor Oampbell, and the city's financial
advisor were strongly against the out-fall proposal.
"Suddenly N~r. Campbell, and apparently the rest of the council are
for out-fall.
"Since the first recommendation of the engineers and the State Health
Department about the method of disposal is now accepted, why don~t
they accept the first recommendation,~ the-, only[recommendation by which
the entire city will benefit, and that is to ~.build the city-wide pro-
J eot now?
"This business of expansion of the ocean out-fall not bein6 expandable
is plain nonsense, since the engineers report of March, 1960, states
emphatically that the out-fall plant will serve for a fifty year de-
sign period merely by increasing the capacity and head of the pumps
which can be done at a nominal cost whereas the sewage treatment plant
will serve only the fifteen year population and will require major ex~
penditures for expansion.
"I have been told by the engineers, and they'll b~ck'it up, that in
their estimation, the city's utility tax will not have to be pledged.
"~here the issue came over the General Obligation Bonds is a real
puzzler. Before tonight I haven.t heard General Obligation Bonds re-
ferred to by any official of the council, any of the engineers or the
fiscal agents.
"The rest of the council may want to fight political gestures by one
of those running for their seat, but I have never, and would never,
attempt to pledge our General Fund Revenues.
"TO the question of Tropic Isle, they will pay nothing except wh'at
they are paying for their own system now.
"The only charge that would be made to any land owner or property
owner with un-improved property, would be the assessment of laying
laterals in front of the property. According to the best standards
such property would increase in value_at_least the cost of the sewer,-
age line.
"NO O~E - I repeat - NO ONE - would pay a monthly charge, or would pay
anything toward the city-wide system that was not connected to the
system and was being provided service.
"About this war business - I believe we all are old enough to remember
what transpired during World War II....anything that pertained to the
health and welfare of a city was given a priority. And besides that,
when has concrete been rationed? i~hat is mainly what the system con-
sists of - concrete pipe. The home-building is a nebulus thing -
with the right fiscal agents to finance the progressive city-wide
plant the population and what home-building would be done would be
surf ic ient.
"I repeat that the engineers have stated that the large system can be
financed with pledging the water revenue surplus and the assessments
for lateral lines, and the sewage revenue.
"They have also said that after 22 years the city-wide system will be
a revenue making - profit making program for the city. What does the
system have to offer that this council proposes - nothing after 30
years except to furnish 1,750 connections, while the rest of the city
suffers with septic tanks.
-3- 11-13-61
"As a councilman, I',ve done'Just about all I can do to stop this big
mistake....it,s up to the citizens now to see that they get a fair
shake in this matter - to see that they get to vote on whether they
want serviCe or servitude." "
Mr. Avery asked that his letter be given to the press and, in
it,s entirety, be made a part of the mifiutes of this meeting.
Mr. Campbell: "Mr. Mayor, I~ll try to cut it short but there
are ~a few things I think should be said. I'm sure that A1 has many
many times said publicly that he reserved the right to change his-mind.
If he reserves that right to himself Itm also sure that he would give
the same right to me. A1 has also taken to himself, and rightly so,
the right to go into the papers with numbers of statements, almost to
the point of advising the public that they ought to bring suit, etc.,
and that is their privilege and his, but I dontt think he wants to say
to ~us that we haven,t the same privilege and I suggest, so that there
will be no misunderstanding, if this letter that you,ve read is to be
signed by yourself as Mayor~ so there can be no misunderstanding, Al,
and you won't be accused'of going over, that we three that believe in
it sign it and then there can,t be any possible misunderstanding.
Now as to the outfall, you sat in on many a meeting and I think
you will agree that never has anyone, City Engineer or the Consulting
Engineers, ever said that the outfall can be built in any. manner but
into a size that will take care, Just as the letter states, the last
hookup that will be made years from now within the city limits. We
certainly are not going out and drop down another thirty six or seventy
two inches,or whatever it may be, along side of the first one. I think
we are right when we are saying that the outfall, when built, will have
to be built to that last hookup and I don~t think you challenge that.
The monthly charge that you refer to that no one will pay except
those that are hooked up, that,s right, but those whose frontage is on
the lines or on the lines that are extended will pay and they will
also pay to carry the line into the house and when that is done they
will start paying for the service' You know that and we all know it.
You said the Engineers say that we can get by without the utili-
ties tax. I~m sure that Mr. Smitzes will agree with this statement
that I'm making, and making with a great deal of desire to give it Just
exactly 'as it was given to us. tThat if it was"possible for us to step
out from under a present contract with the Fiscal Agentsthat it~might
be possible, in fact they thought it would be possible, to build with-
out the utility, in other words, pledge all of our water and all of the
sewer.' We do happen to have a couple of things in between we and that.
We have a contract that has been accepted and was accepted long before
the discussion of this $~50,000. to $500,000. sewer. If the building
within the lines measures up to expectations and wetve had Mr. Simons,
our consultant on Planning and Zoning, tell us in his opinion I think
he quoted 30,000 within the city limits but he pushed the city limits
out to the Military Trail. I~m sure that you want to give your side
of it and give it as close to the facts as possible but I do think
that you travel a little bit away once in a while Al."
}~. Avery: "Since he has rebutted I will ask for a little
counter rebuttal here. If I am accused of hitting the papers with
statements it's because I think the public should know what is going
on. I have always been for an open press and if you allow the presS
to be at all the meetings, the press will agree and have agreed with
the things I've said, at least they were said.
As to the outfa!l, I refer again to my statement that the
Engineers report of 1960 stated that the design of the outfall as pre-
sented with the fifty year design which would require not the charge
of outfAll which is naturally on the ocean bottom but could be modified
at a n~minal cost with exchange of pumps and the head on the pumps and
increase its capacity."
M~. oamPbell~ "Not the outfall? You don~t mean that?"
Mr ~ Avery: "The outfall."
Mr" Campbell: "Oh no. The use .of the outfall, you mean~'!
Mr. ~Avery~ "Referred to the outfall and its design and this is
the Engineers report of 1960. I refer you back to their report. As
to the monthly charge, the vacant property in any F.H.A. appraiser,
NO'~%i}9~ER 13, 1961.
"any qualified appraiser fo~ any finance house will tell you, but
particularly the F.H.A. ~d~ioh is the standard, and any F. H. A. ap-
praiser will tell you that where vacant property exists and a sewer
line is placed in f~ont of it the value of that property will increase
at least the amount of the cost of that line in front of it.
As to the Engineers and what they say, the utility tax, and it
might be possible, it is possible, and the financial agents contract
goes for that which is planned is prove~ by the fact that we Just
raised their fee ~or this particular little program to 1~%. So it
applies to that and that only. As to the ~ years that you referred
to, I have not yet and I have demanded, I have seen because I have
taken the trouble to dig into some of these things, a report from the
Engineers on the comparative cost, the overall comparative cost of the
two systems and ~hen the public sees this overall comparative cost I
assure you it will curl their hair."
Mr. Campbell: "Mr. Mayor, may I ask through you of Mr. Avery
what two systems he is referring to. Are you referring to the complete
system with the outfall or the complete system with a continued plant,
or what is it you are referring to?"
Mr. Avery: "The systems I am talking about a~e the system, and
you referred in your ad to the public the Engineers Report of March,
1960, but it was the Engineers report of 1960 for the overall system
which evidentially they give you the impression that it is going to be
now when at the public meeting in December of 1~60 it was set forth
that in the outlying areas that you would be given several 2ears
notice, you would know when the thing was comi~ to you.. I refer .to
that system which.was the Engineer,s report of March, 1960 and which
you referred to in your ad as opposed to the system which you are.
planning now."
Mr. Sundy: "Mr. Mayor, I move that Mr. Avery.~s and your letter
and the one from Mr. Baker of the Florida State Board of Health be
made a matter of public record and be given to the press." The motion
was seconded by Mr. Thayer.
Mr. Campbell: "Mr. Mayor, I think we all have the right of
discussion. I,m saying,and I want it to be made a matter of record,
that Mr. Avery is referring to as the two systems had to of necessity
be one that we, the majority of the Council, have discarded.. We
studied the overall system with a plant big enough to take care of it
and we studied the overall system with an outfall big enouglx~.to take
care of the overall, and that,s the second system that .he is .~referring
to. But it might be misunderstood by some of the people when .he-re
fers to two systems and says that one would cost so much more than the
other that he might be referring to the $450,000. which was not even "~
in the thinking of an2 of us at the time that you are referring to in
1960, A 1."
Mr. Avery: "May I Clarify something? The system that I am re-
ferring to that I asked to be compared is the system that this Council
is forcing on the public today as compared to the system that the City
Engineers Russell & Axon came up with. A result of the system backed
up with the engineering of Smith & Gelleapie and backed up by the wis-
dom of our City Engineer who himself is a registered engineer and
qualified to either be a member of one of these engineering firms or
have his own engineering fi~m, the result of these three competent
engineering fimu brains as compared to the one that you are comparing
today." .
Mayor Warren stated that the outfall system could become a
reality in a few years from now.
Upon call of roll the Council unanimously voted that the letters
which were read on this subject be made a matter of public record and
also be given to the press.
'~.a. City Manager Smitzes read the following letter from Quinton

~ion to erect an identification sign on the right-of-way
· .. for N. E. 19th Street, Just east of N. E. 2nd Avenue, im-
mediately adjacent to the school property on the north.
·his request is in accordance with the applicable, section
.of the Sign Omdinance of the City of Delray Beach, and is
made necessary by the fact that'the only property owned by

mously ca, tied that this item be tabled.
5.d. City Manager Smitzes presented the following bids that had been
received fcr fence enclosure around the air conditioning units at both
the City Hall and Community Center and stated that both bids were
based upon plans and specifications supplied by the City Engineer and
that it is recommended that the low bid be accepted. The City Manage~
further stated that there is an amount of $3%0.00 in the current budge-
et for this which requires $156.18 to be appropriated from the Con-
tingency Fund in order to make this purchase.
Florida Fence Co., Inc. $506.18
Edwin Wilson & Co. 9921.00
It was moved by Mr. Sundy, seconded by Mr. Thayer'and unani-
mously carried that the award be made to the Iow bidder and that the
amount of $156.18 be appropriated from the Contingency Fund for this
purpose.
6.a. Concerning the petition from Nowlin & Adams for permissive use
of lands on the east side of the Intracoastal Waterway to operate a
host dock rental as well as a social club membership.,' it was moved by
Mr. Campbell that this matter be referred to the Planning Board. The
motion was seconded by Mr. Avery and carried unanimously.
Mr. Campbell asked if the Planning Board takes into consider-
ation the possibility of deed restrictions, and Mr. Sundy asked about
granting retail sales in an R-3 Zone.
6.b. City Manager Smitzes presented the following letter from Charles
A. Crane, dated November llth. -~

8.a. City Manager Smitzes made the following report result'lng from a
request for same by the Council.
"In accordance with Council instructions at November 6th
.meeting, the charge for over-parking was revised and we
see no objection to changing same from 50~ to $1.00 as
an over-parking fine after the 1-hour free period.
Although the Police Department does have an adequate
number of parking tickets indicating a %0~ parking fine
amount, it will be no great chore to modify this to $1.00."
Mr. Avery stated that since the purpose of pa~king meters is-to
keep traffic moving and with the thiraking that the higher fine will
cause people to be a little more observant of it and keep the traffic
moving, moved that the parking violation fee be henceforth $1.00 and
that the recommendation be adopted. The motion was seconded by Mr.
Thayer and carried unanimously.
8.b. City Manager Smitzes gave the following report concerning a
request made by a-Councilman at the November 6th meeting.
"During the past three months of August, September and
October, only one arrest has been made by the Police
Department involving the improper operation of a bicycle,
that being at 12:01 A.M. on the night of August 12, '1961.
"In order to more strongly emphasize the importance of this
ordinance as a means of safeguarding bicyclists at night,
'the Police Department, either Monday or Tuesday, will send
-?- 11-13-61
NOVEMBER 13, 1961.
"a representative to all the'schools in-the ames to give
a shor. t talk on the improtance of maintaining lights on
'bicycles when they are used at night. The Police Depart-
ment will also give a release to the newspapers in order
to reach the parents in an endeavor to accomplish the in-
tended purpose of tl~ ordinance. Both the Police Depart-
ment and the City Manager feel that the Ordinance is a
good ordinance and that it should be enforced in a manner
which will develop results."
It was moved by Mr. Avery, seconded by Mr. Sundy and unani-
mously carried that the City Managerta report be accepted. _
It was suggested that a notice concerning same be posted at the
Community' Center also.
X. City Manager Smitzes brought to the attention of the Council the
time sequence of events for the sewer project and stated that it is
now time for' the Council to take action in deciding to accept and open
bids on the project, and to fit the pattern would be Wednesday at
2:00 P.M. December 13th, 1961.

X. City Clerk Worthing presented a Eu~vey ~Report cf alleged
nuisances existing' in violation of ChapteP 15 of the City,s Code of

Mr. Avery asked if the property on each side of South Federal
Highway was on a nuisance violation list and was informed by City
Clerk Worthing that it was.
3. The Council recessed from 9:05 P.M. until 10:10 P.M. after
which City Manager Smitzes stated that it was the ruling of the City
Attorney that the building permit in question was issued in violation
of the Zoning Ordinance now in effect and recommends that the builder
meet with the City Manager for a solution.
Mr. Campbell then moved that since it was the ruling of the
City Attorney that the building pex, mit was issued in violation of
the Zoning Ordinance now in effect, that the builder meet with the
