~.ng Engineering Services for.a proposed Sewage Treatment and Collec-
tion System, and further advised that during the past two weeks he
has prepared a chronological history of 'Agreements' with, and work
furnished by, Smith & Gillespie.

Smith & Gillespie, claims existence of a continuing contract with the
City of Delray Beach for supplying engineering services, which, how-
.eve.r, may.be terminated by either party thereto if both parties find
it ~mposs~ble to agree on prooedure.

practically every Council s~nce 19445 has talked of, and consxdered
s.urveys for, Sewage and Disposal Systems, w.hich the Commissioner be-
lieved to be premature and moved that the C~ty of Delray Beach, thru
the City Manager, prepare Plans and Specifications for a complete
Sewage a.nd Disposal System. Motion seconded by Commissioner Croft
and unanimously passed.

and Specifications' have been established, proposals for providing en-
gineering services in connection with a Sewage and Disposal System
from Eng~neerxng fxrms, qualified for supplyxng such serwces, loca
ted in this general area and to include Smith & Gillespie.

pinion, concerning interpretation of the C~ty's Code requirements as

City Manager Lawson also submitted the "Request" of N~. C. W.
Garner, to tear down a 'Shed' on the Delray Lumber property, N. E. 1st

moved, every future use of such premises shall be in conformity with

. Commissioner McNeece, citing the q.uestion of what apparently com-
prises a "Lot of Record" and more par{~cularly as concerns the above
mentioned property, m.oved that this 'Request', of Mr. Orlemann's be
referred to the Planning-Zoning Beard for said Board to conduct a pub-
lic hearing relative to said 'ReqUest'. Motion seconded by Commis-
sioner Croft and unanimously approved.
City Manager Lawson read the following letter: . Dated May 26th
"Lake Ida Shores Subdivision, which as you may know is our proper-
y, can be reached economically only by turning west on N.W. Ninth ·
treet and due to the fact that the street entrance on Swinton Ave.,
is narrowed to no more than about fifteen feet, it is almost impossi-
ble for a stranger who is looking for our Subdivision, to find it.
Our predesso.rs, The Ridg.e Construction Company, had a small sign
of 18 x 36 on sa~d corner wh.~ch at the request of.you.r bu.ilding de-
partment had to be removed s~nce as I understand ~t, ~t d~d not con-
form with you.r regulations. We need a directional sign on this cor-
ner of N.W. Nxnth Street and Swinton Avenue which will point an arrow
towards Lake Ida and the copy of the sign would read:
LAKE IDA SHORES
(an arrow)
1/2 Mile .
I respectfully request permission to place this sign on said cor-
ner in order to be able to guide visitors who are interested in our
homes and in our lots which at the present time is almost impossible
to find.
Trusting that such permission will be promptly granted, I am"
/S/ HUGH W. VOGL,
Se c r e tary-Tr ea sure r.
Co~_mm~issioner McNeece moved that inasmuch as such a 'Sign' would be
in violation of Delray Beach "Sign" Ordinance No. G-293, this request
be denied. Motion was se'conded by Commissioner' Harbison and upon Call
of Roll- Commissio.ners McNeece, Harbison and Croft together with
Mayor Talbot voted ~n favor thereof, C.ommissioner Warren abstaining
and c~ting existence of a comparable s~gn, being that of Chevy Chase
at Sw~nton Avenue and Lake Terrace.
City Mana.ger Lawson then read a letter received from Mr. Carleton
C. Walters, Vxce-President of PIK QUIK, INC., dated May $1st, 1989,
as follows:
JUNE 8th, 1959
"As you know ou~ Company has purchase~ a ~arcel of the Betsy Bond
property on Seacr~st Blvd., adjacent to P~ner~dse Ro~d, for the pu~-
pose of con, trucking and operating one o~ o.u~. P~k Quik Food Markets
andV~ash Qu~k co~n operated laundry, c?~nat~on~.
Due to the fact that Delray utilities are ~moortant to us, nar-
ticularly water service, we would like to express-our desire and'wil-
lingness to have our property annexed to the City. V~e find that
Betsy Bond, the owner of the adjacent property, ~as gone to. Europe
and apparently has left no forwardxng address. It was our xntention
to also haveher express her willingness to come.into the City.
If the City could in anyway see fit to give us temporary relief,
by allowing us to have water at this time, we will guarantee that we
will bend every effort to assist in having these properties annexed
to the City.
Thanking you for your consideration and assuring you of our
sire to co-operate in every way, I am
/s/Qun(, INC.
By CARLETON C. VlALTERS
Vice-President
Nr. Jury, of Pik Quik, Inc., stated that, when acquiring the .
property for intended use, outlined above, was not aware of any C~ty
policy of not extending water facilities and now is handicapped by
not heine able ? obtain such service, even though willing to provide
for the PIK-QUIK property to be annexed.
Nayor Talbot advis?d¥~. Jury of Resolution No..lidO, adopted on
Ney l~th, 1989, prohibiting extension °fV~ater Serwce outside the ·
City limits. However, in view of the willingness of PIK-QUIK, INC.,
~o h~ve their land annexed to the City, the Nayor requested an opin-
ion from the City Attorney.as to possible procedure whichmight per-
mit extension of water service to this property of PIK-QUIK, INC.,
and was advised by Att'y. Newett that such provision .might be made
possible on the basis of PIK QUIK, INC. executing an ~rrevocable a-
greement providing for annexation, of its property to the City of Del-
ray Beach. at such time as annexation thereof may be effected in com-
pliance w~th. Charter requirements, and recommended recording of such
'Agreement' upon execution thereof by PIK-QUIK, INC.
Commissioner NcNeece moved that the City Nanager prepare for the
necessary steps of annexation procedure affecting the PIK-QUIK, INC.
p~op~r~y and the property abutting thereto which lies between said
P~k-Qu~k, Inc. land and the present City limits. Notion was seconded
by Commissioner Croft and unanimously approved.
Col. Andrew Fabens suggested that annexation of the PIK-QUIK, INC.
propertymight be found to be possible if procedure followed that ex-
ercised in the annexation of Tropic Isles.
.City~nage~ Lawson then read the following 'Request' from the
Arwda Corporation, dated June 4th, 1959:
"Attached is a copy of an assignment of lease between Arvida
Realty Co:, and J. C. Smith & Son Farms, Inc., covering the City
Yacht Basin.
Under the temns of our lease with the City of Delray Beach, we
must secure written permission for any assignment.
~Vill you please submit t~is matter to t~e City Council and re-
quest a.letter from them stat~n$ that they w~ll grant permission for
the assignment when presented ~th a properly executed assignment. We

"The Council must find the street to be necessaryin the~ public-

would appear to be beneficial to the railroad property as well as

sessed its pro-rata share of the costs of such xmprovements xf the
Council determines they are necessary."
