$~ That because of the deplorable street condition in the Colored
section, the effectiveness of the Police Department, Fire Depart-
ment and the Sanitation Department is hampered tremendously.
A. T. hat there are many streets that are OPen, sandy, and completely
~mpassable; that there are numerous streets that are unopened,
yet there a~e many homes located thereon; that there are a few streets
that are either paved or rocked.
5. That the immediate improvement of said streets is warran~ted, in
that public necessity and convenience will be served by said tm-
provements.
8.That to refrai.n from making said improvements would in effect
cause the contxnuance of undue hardship and would do substantial'
injustice to those imm.ediately affected as well as the City at large.
WHEREFORE t.he undersigned requests the Honorable Council to direct
t.hat t. he fgllowxng imp.rovements be made ~n the Colored section of our
C~ty !mmedxately, to w~t:
1. To open, rock and pave all streets which are presently unopen.
2. To rock and pave all streets which are presently open but are sandy
3. To pave all streets which are presently rocked.
A.To grant such further relief in reference to street improvement
as circumstances may dictate from time to time.

STUDY OF STREETS
F 1Z~DINGS:
In the Southwest section of colored town there are 81 blocks
of dirt re.ad. By and large, these dirt roads are passable only after
a heavy rainfall. Even then larse trucks and farm buses using these
dirt roads, churn the said dirt xn such a fashion that cars cannot go
through without r.unning the risk of getting stuck. It was discovered
that on one occasion the fire department could not reach a house fire
because of the condition of said dirt roads.
There are l? blocks of unopened streets, Residents living
in affected areas, are forced to leave their vehicles blocks away and
walk to their homes.
There are 8 blocks of shell rocked roads.
There are 18 blocks of paved streets.
In the Northwest section there are Z3 blocks of dirt roads.
V~at is said of the dirt roads in the Southwest section, also applies
to the dirt roads in the Northwest section.
There are l0 blocks of shell rock roads.
There are 12 blocks of unopened streets.
There are S$ blocks of paved streets exclusive of Atlantic
Avenue ·
In both the Northwest and Southwest sections, a majority of
the abutting owners favor the immediate improvement of the streets.
Because of the rapid development of our section of the City,
both N'west and S'west, there is a paramount need for the improvement
of our streets. With the construction of the new high school on S.W.
lSth Ave, in conjunction with churches located in close proximity
thereby, the need for street improvement in that area has become even
more acute. That abutting owners are willing to assume their equitable
share of the cost of said improvement.
APRIL 28, 1958. 73
Commissioner Campbell co~ented that a matter of this magnitude
and importance could not be disposed of at a regular meeting and mo~red
that the City Manager be requested to contact o2flcers of the "League"
and ~rrange a date and time for discussion of such improvements with
the ity Council as may be determined possible. Motion was seconded
by Commissioner McNeece and unanimously agreed. ·
President Smith, of the Delray Beach Civic League, stated that a
joint meeting, as proposed by Commissioner Campbell! would be greatly'
appreciated and hoped that same misht be scheduled in the near future.
The Commissioner suggested that, prior to such meeting, Mr. Smith
and other officers of the League could aid sUch a discussion by first
contacting the many prgperty owners whose property Ss abutting on
streets desired to be zmproved and determine, definitely, their wil-
lingness to absorb their proportionate share of such expense.
Replying to Mr. Pompey's inquiry, the City Manager advised the
present street improvement cost sharing basis, namely;
City's Share - - - Primary Streets (Including Business 70%
Secondary
Residential 20%
Dead End 10%
City Manager Lawson read the following letter which was in reply
to an earlier inquiry of t~e Manager to the Supt. of Public Schools -
~r. Howell Watkins concerning the plans of the Board of Public Instruc-
tion ~elative to p~oviding a paved street from Atlantic Avenue to the
new Carver School in the southwest section of the City.
?~. WILLIAM E. LAWSON, JR., March 28th, 1988.
City Nanager,
City of Delray Beach,-Fla.
I wrote you before, the School Board had not built any streets
for the purpose of reaching school property. I also told you that the
~ttcrney General had ruled that the School Board could not build side-
~.lks~ except on school grounds.
I presented your letter to the Board, however, and our attorney
confirmed what I had previously written to you.
Sincerely yours,
/S/ HOWELL L. WATKINS
County Supt of Pub-
lic Lustruction.
Commissioner Talbot moved that the City Nanager confer with Mr.
VJ~tkins and Chief of Police R. C. Croft to determine the best street~
fo~ egress and ingress to this new school with no definite conclusion
being reached until such time as the present school improvement is
completed. Notion seconded by Commissioner Campbell and unanimously
approved.
The City Manager then read the following letter from Att'y. J.
Clinton Scott;
April 22nd, 1958,
MR. ~ILLIAM E. LAWSON
City Manager
City of Delray Beach, Flao
Please be advised that I represent R. H. Craige, Gertrude F. ~ick,
Helen d'Auburt Hall, A. George, Rose Ricklefs, and?. J. Seymour, who
are property Owners on N.~. ?th Street, between N.~. 1st Avenue and
N.~. 8rd Avenue. They have asked that I represent them in requesting
the City 9ommission to rsfund all assessments and ~nterest and proper-
ty liens mn connection w~th the covering and patching of N.~, ?th Str
du~ing 1982 and 198S, for the reason that similar or identical cover-
ing or patching is now being applied to other streets of the area with
no assessment to property owners
.
I call your attention to Ordinance No. G-182, and page 80 of 1982,
Book 2, of the proceedings before the City Commission; these records
APRIL 28, 1958.
are for the most part self-explanatory of the unequitable treatment
of my clients.
I should like to appear before the City Commission at the regularly
scheduled Commission meeting next Nonday in order to further present
this matter.
/S/ J. CLINTON SCOTT
Att'y. Scott, accompanied by Mr. Charles J. V~ick II, informed the
Council that, in his opinion, an injustice was effected in assessing
property owners, referred to in his letter, for the N.W. 7th Street
improvement in late 1952, whereas, at present, the City is in the pro-
cess of making similar street improvements at no cost to abutting pro-
perty owners.
Tha Nayor stated that he doubted the feasibility of considering
refund~of levies for street improvements imposed by prior Councils in
as much as the policy at such time was to assess benefited lands for
street, sidewalk or drainage improvements.
Commissioner EcNeece stated that, in his opinion, this Council can
not go back and alter the policies of prior Councils and Administra-
tions. The present rehabilitation of streets, to a limited extent, is'
a pclicy of the current Council, expenses for which have been provided°
$omm~,ssioner Campbell stated that he felt every city is in accord
that money is .thrown away in covering and patching of rights-of-way,
and this Council decided to do some good and lasting street improve-
ments and consequently provided for the present street rehabilitation
program for the benefit of all. The Commissioner then moved that this
request of Att'y. J. Clinton Scott, on behalf of parties referred to
in the Attorney's letter apb, earing hereinabove, be denied. Eotion was
seconded by ~ommissioner Nc~eece and upon Call of Roll - Commissioners
Campbell, EcNeece and Talbot together with'Mayor Croft voted in favor
thereof, Commissioner Warren being opposed.

In regard to the drainage in our section we protest against any
assessment. We have a small home which is not rented property and we
feel we are more than assessed as it is.

(Mrs. AFC.)
CITY COUNCIL Feb. 14th,
Ny home is two blocks south of the west end of this street.
have lived here since 1948 and have no drainage problem to the best of
my knowledge.
I have no interest in the problem of the owners of property on
Casuarina Rd. They have income property and if drainage is a better-
ment for their interests I suggest the burden is placed where it be-
longs.
So I protest against any plan that involves me.

The "Letter" fromM rs. A. C. Henry and the "Letter" from Mr. Leon

The ~ityManager then submitted the following "Reports" from the
Planning/Zoning Board:
1. RE! Request for permissive use of
Lot 12, Sec."A", 'Plumosa Park
for preschool - Mrs. Emma
TO THE CITY COMMISSION: McMurray, Rt.1, Box 904. D.B.
On Friday, April 28th at 4 PM, in the City Hall, our Board heard
the ~bjections to granting permissive use in_Piumosa Park Section "A",
an R 2 zone, under the City Code, Section 29 7.8, Paragraph 1Sa.
Mrs. McMurray petitions for a "preschool" which is interpreted to
mean the same as "nursery school and kindergarten" as stated in the
City Code.
She has submitted with her petition several signed petitions sup-
porting it; one from 18 business people throughout the city, a~other
from l~ residents of Seacrest Park, and others from residents betwee~
N.E. 10th to N.E. 18th St. bounded on the east by the F.E.C.Ry and on'
the west by N.E. 2nd Ave from which there are more than S0 supporters~
At the hearing, of which $8 nearby property owners were notified,
22 of these objected in person or by letter as well as two or three
others.
An identical petition was heard by our board on July 19,
at which time only nine of fifty notified, objected~ 0u~~ board rec-
comended approyal, subject to certain traffic safe-guards. The
commission den~ed it~
Following the present hearing and after discussion, it was
moved and seconded that for the protection of the nearby prope~t~ ·
owners and in consideration of their high morale, that the petmt~on be
denied. For denial, Blake, Fabens, Lankton and Sinks, for permission
Jacobson, Knowles and Totterdale. Motion carried,
The majority of the Board recommends denial.

/S/ Andrew L. Fabens
Chairman
General discussion followed the reading of the Planning/Zoning
Board "Report" durin~which many objectors living in the immediate
area of the property upon which a preschool has been proposed entered
their protests for such permissive use being granted, some of whom,
namely, Mr. and Mrs. R, A. Rodrique, Mrs. E. D. Demauro, Mr. Fred L.
Dippery, Mr. Donald L. Spath, Mr. J. R. Coleman and Mrs. C. R. McConnell
who referred to the action of the Planning/Zoning Board following the
Public ttearing of April 2$th and the Board's disapproval of such per-
missive use on Lot 12 in Plumosa Park - Sec. "A", being granted and de-
manded that the 'Request' of Mrs. Emma NcMurray be denied,
Commissioner Campbell, commenting on the need for more schools of
this type in Delray Beach and expressing a hope that the interested
parties and the objectors might join hands and attempt to locate a
more suitable location, there being such an apparent objection to the
proposed sight, reminded those present that Permissive Use for
Churches, etc., may be granted by the City Council in any area of th~
City, and further, the education and welfare of the children of the
city must be considered~
Further discussion resulted in several complimentary remarks being
offered relative to the exceptional fine control and operation of Mrs~
McMurray's present School at the Presbyterian Church where she has con-
ducted a most satisfactory school activity for several years.
The Commission again sought to encourage representatives of
McNurray and the present objectors to cooperate in an effort to pro-
~vide another site, and failing in this, Commissioner Talbot moved that
the matter be tabled for two weeks hoping for the cooperation of all
toward effecting a suitable site. Motion was seconded by Commissioner
V~arren and following many protests, by the above mentioned objectors,
to the tabling of this issue Call of Roll resulted in Commissioners
Talbot and Yfarren voting in favor thereof, Commissioners Campbell,
Mc~eece and Mayor Croft being opposed. Notion did not carry.
Oontinued protests to the proposed school site on said Lot 12 wer~
offored by Mrs. NcConnell, Mr. Coleman and others, and Commissioner
~cNeece requested that discussion be closed inasmuch as apparently al!
have been given an opportunity to be heard and that the Council should
~on~i~er the remainder of the Agenda.
Commissioner ~farren then moved that the Request for Permissive
~onst~uction and operation of a private school for pre-school age
.~h~!dren on Lot 12, Plumosa Park, Sec. "A", be granted. Motion was
~conded by Commissioner NcNeece and unanimously approved.
City Manager Lawson then read the following "Report" of Apr 29th:
"Our letter °fApril 12th, which was referred back for clarifica-~..
rich, is amended by correction of the third pa ragraph, which should
read;
Our board voted five to one that the Petition of the Sea-R Hold-
ing Company for re-zoning Blocks 26 & 27, Homewood S/D in Section 19,
Twp 46S, Rge 45E, from R-1AA to R-S be denied, and further reco~aend
that golf courses be placed in permissive use in any zone.

tions should be taken simultaneously."

Commissioner Talbot moved that the City proceed with the Clearing
of those Lots specified in Resolutions No's. 1074 and 1079, which have
not been cleared by ~he own?s thereof, subject to said owners being
advised of the low bzd recezved by the city for such clearance and
that cost of such clearin$ will be assessed against the individual
property ?.wner whose lot is so cleared, as outlined in the Resolution,
copy of whzch has been furnished and acknowledged by each property
owner involved, and further subject to the City Attorney submitting
certification to the CStyEanager that ill legal steps in procedure
of Lot Clearing, relative to these speczfic Lots shown in said Reso-
lutions 1074 and 1079, have been properly executed. Motion seconded
by Commissioner~arren and unanimously passed.
On motion of Commissioner Talbot and seconded by Commissioner
McNeece, the Council unanimously approved reimbursement to James
Charlow of $15.00, which amount Mr. Charlow paid on April 16th, 1958,
for Occupational License FEE, due to Licensee being over 68 years of
age and therefore eligible for exemption from such FEE as provided in
Section 16-4, Article 1 of Chapter 16 - City Code of Ordinances.
Commissioner Campbell moved that Mr Robert Glass be granted per-
mit to move a frame house from outside ~he City to Lots 6 and 7,-in

plied wit~. Motion seconded by Commissioner Talbot and unanimously

extension of Causarina Rd which projects west from the west side of
the right-of-way of Seasage Drive.
Lot X is the north west corner of Sea Gate
in order to develop Lot X, with a suitable entranced it might be
appropriate for the city to lease or abandon this strip, provided
Carter-Jebb could acquire land to fill and widen it..
This is submitted for information rather than recommending any
action at present.

The City Manager then read the following letter:
April 28rd '~8~
"As a taxpayer and a resident of Delray Beach, I would like to make
one s~ggestion for the serious consideration of the members of the
Counczl of the City of Delray Beach, and I respectfully submit to you
this suggestion and hope that you will find time at the next meeting
to discuss with your fellow commissioners, the merits which I believe
the idea ~eserves.
I suggest that any habitable domicile, located within the city
limits of Delray Beach, regardless of its v~luation, carry a minim~
tax of $80.00. I am sure that the property owners who receive the
same police, fire and other city services could not possibly have a
worthy objection to paying part of the cost of such services. I think
t~at this levy should apply regardless of Homestead Exemption and I be-
lieve that it will have a very definite up-l~fting effec~ on the man-
ner in which the properties are taken care of and will ultimately add
to the beautification of our city. There are so many advantages to a
levy of this character and the possible ~ses to which the resulting
revenues could apply that both the small and the large taxpayers and
property owners would widely benefit.
There may be some legal obstacle to a flat levy of this character
if it is levied as a real estate tax, however, it seems to me that a
flat levy could be made against every habitable domicile as a City
service charge, similar to the Garbage Collection charge, and that
APRIL 28, 1958. 79
credit of $80.00 could be granted to any taxpayer paying an amount in
excess of $80.00 by virtue of assessed valuation. That is a matter
for your City Attorney to work out, if the suggestion is practicable.
/S/ I~YMOND R. BONNELL
On motion of Commissioner Talbot and seconded by Commissioner
Campbell the Council unanimously approved referral of this communica-
tion to.the City N~nager and City Attorney for recommendation.
City Manager Lawson then read the following letter:
DELRAY BEACH RECREATION CLUB
CITY COl{MISSION March 20, 1958.
At a meeting of the Board of Directors of the Delray Beach Recre-
ation Club held March 14, 1958, the following items of repairs and im-
provements to the Courts and Club House and lavatories were suggested
for completion before the next tourist season.
1. Repair or install a new walk apron along side of Shuffle Court
nearest Waterway or East side.
2. Replace score board on all cm~rts. Use uniform type for all
courts. Present boards are in very poor condition.
o°. Replace seats on all courts. Present wooden seats are deteriorat-
ing fast and need repairs each year. The Club spent $60.00 this
season for a paint job and we feel this was money wasted painting wood.
in poor condition. We suggest concrete seat supports with a 2" x lC"
wooden plank for a seat. This type would save costly repairs and
paint maintenance in the future.
4~ Paint inside of Club House. We suggest "Pale Green Color". It
has been a number of years since this has been done and a paint
job is sadly needed.
5. General repairs or overhaul of plumbing system in park comfort
building. This past season the toilet plumbing system was plugged
up several times thereby closing the building, one time for three
weeks. Also there is much unfavorable comments on the condition of
the wash bowls, etc.
This building is used by all who use the park and sanitary condi-
tions should be carefully watched as children playing in the park con-
tinually use the facilities of this building.
We suggest as many as possi,ble of these improvements be made dur-
ing the off season and before the tourist season opens next fall.
The board of directors and club members would like to thank the
City of Delray Beach, Commission Members, City Manager and Director o
of Parks for your past cooperation in the successful oper~.tion cf th~
Club.
We are looking forward for your future cooperation and a little
more sunshine next season.

DELRAY BEACH CHAMBER OF COMMERCE 4/24/58
"At a regular meeting of the Chamber of Commerce Highways Committee

all streets east of Swlnton Avenue and west from the canal between
Eighth St north and Tenth St south.
