Mrs. Butler stated they are mainly working with kitchens, bathrooms, painting and some repairing to flooring. Mrs. Butler stated staff has bid projects prior to this one (five units) and they carne in within 10% of the in -house estimates and because staff has been limited to three contractors under the RFP participating, the bids have gone higher. She stated staff believes if they can re- advertise and add additional contractors to participate they can sustain a competitive bid process and bring these within reason. 8 09/07/10 Mr. Eliopoulos moved to approve Item 9.A.A.

(Quasi - Judicial Hearing) Mayor McDuffie read the City of Delray Beach procedures for a Quasi - Judicial Hearing into the record for this item. Mayor McDuffie asked the Commission to disclose their ex parte communications. The Commission had no ex parte communications to disclose. Chevelle D. Nubin, City Clerk, swore in those individuals who wished to give testimony on this item. Paul Dorling, AICP, Director of Planning and Zoning, entered the Planning and Zoning Department project file #2010 -134 into the record. Mr. Dorling stated this item is approval for relief of four sections of the LDRs related to a single- family residence to be constructed at 150 N.E. 1st Avenue within the Old School Square Historic District. Mr. Dorling stated three of those waivers relate to a compromise between perimeter landscaping and pavement width for a parking lot which is to be provided along the south side of this single- family residence. He stated this was in conjunction with the Ocean Club restaurant that was approved on Atlantic Avenue and the parking lot was an off-site parking lot which was to provide parking for the single - family residence but for some of those employees of that restaurant as part of an in -lieu request that the Commission previously looked at. Mr. Dorling stated one of the waivers is to the landscape strip and it is required to be five feet (5') and they want to WN 09/07/10 reduce it down to two feet seven inches. The required back up area is required to be six feet and they want to reduce that to four feet in conjunction with providing a little bit more landscaping and there is a proposed reduction of the driveway width from twenty - four (24') feet to twenty -two feet (22'). Mr. Dorling stated all of these waivers were recommended by the Historic Preservation Board when this project came before it and noted the original plan showed no landscaping. The Board felt that if staff reduced a couple of dimensions and provided a little bit of landscaping that would be a better all around project. Mr. Darling stated the last item relates to the site visibility triangle along N. E. 1St Avenue from the required forty feet (40') visibility triangle to thirty -five (35'). Mr. Dorling stated this was considered at the Historic Preservation Board meeting at which time all of these waivers were recommended for approval and were suggested as a compromise going forward. Staff recommends approval of all four items.

Paul Dorling, AICP, Director of Planning and Zoning, stated this is a tax exemption request for improvements for property at 702 S.E. 2nd Street. Mr. Dorling stated this was approval that was given by the Historic Preservation Board on September 17, 2010 and involved a relocation of a structure that was on the site and they moved the structure to the north closer to 2"d Street and included the demolition of an original one - story portion located at the rear of that structure and included one and two story additions including a two -car garage as well as the installation of a new swimming pool and additional site improvements and landscaping.

Doug Smith, Assistant City Manager, stated previously staff has discussed a number of General Fund fee changes and a number of those have already had actions that have been taken and are in the process of being changed or will come back to the Commission. Mr. Smith stated several that staff wanted to bring back for working towards a final determination had to do with the parks and recreation fees. Staff recommends the facility fee changes and there has been some previous discussion at previous meetings regarding whether to make this change on the room rentals to have the base charge for three hours versus two hours. Mr. Smith briefly discussed the field rental fees and a small charge recommended to be implemented for field lining. He stated staff previously discussed the $100.00 per team tournament fee for non -city sports providers with non - profits being able to have a 50% charge. Mr. Smith commented about the potential participant fee for sports organizations and stated part of the discussion at the last meeting included resident versus non - resident charges. Linda Karch, Director of Parks and Recreation, stated staff broke it down into recreational fees and travel/competitive fees with estimated revenues going from $0- $10.00 for the recreational and $10.00-$15.00 for the travel. Mrs. Karch stated the recreational fees for the travel /competitive category is $10.00- $15.00 for residents and $15.00 - $20.00 for non - residents.

Mr. Eliopoulos stated he does not support this chart.

Mr. Fetzer stated he is open to other options on this and is anxious to hear Mr. L'Herrou's proposal. Mrs. Gray stated she is not in favor of changing hours from 3 hours to 2 only because the City increased the fee last year and is now proposing to increase the fee this year. Mr. Frankel stated he is favor of all recommendations. Mr. Frankel stated in his opinion, he feels there is no problem charging a non - resident an additional fee than residents because this is done in other cities as well. Mr. Frankel stated taking care of the fields is not free and when you share the costs it is better for everyone. 13 09 /07 /10 Mrs. Gray asked what the money will go towards for the residents versus non - residents. The City Manager stated the money goes into the General Fund and these funds are not earmarked. Mr. Eliopoulos asked if Mayor McDuffie has heard from the different organizations. Mayor McDuffie stated he heard from the Delray Beach National Little League that the $10.00 is not going to break the bank; however, he stated in Little League Charters no child can be turned away for the inability to pay. Therefore, Mayor McDuffie stated the child will play in the program and usually the coaches and other people will pick those fees up. Mayor McDuffie stated he does not feel that an additional $10.00 per participant is onerous. Mayor McDuffie stated the Delray Beach National Little League's fees are approximately $100.00 - $150.00 per season; however, Delray Beach American Little League's fees are approximately $30.00 and if you add $10.00 to that it becomes a sizeable increase and they were not in favor of implementing that fee. It was the consensus of the Commission to hold off making a decision on these fees until staff hears Mr. Todd L'Herrou's proposal. At this point, the time being 7:07 p.m., the Commission moved to the duly advertised Public Hearings portion of the Agenda. 10. PUBLIC HEARINGS: 10.A.

(The official copy of Ordinance No. 24 -10 is on file in the City Clerk's The City Attorney read the caption of the ordinance. Paul Dorling, A1CP, Director of Planning and Zoning, stated this is a privately- initiated amendment from AC (Automotive Commercial) and RM (Multiple Family Residential — Medium Density) to GC (General Commercial) and OS (Open Space) for property located at the northeast corner of Federal Highway and Fladell's Way (2501 South Federal Highway). This is the former location of the Ralph Buick dealership. Mr. Dorling stated this totals 6.87 acres. Mr. Dorling stated this ordinance was before the City Commission previously on January 2, 2006, where they approved a rezoning of the Ralph Buick site from AC (Automotive Commercial) to GC (General Commercial) in conjunction with a development proposal for a mixed -used development, which was to be known as Royal Palm Club. Mr. Darling stated that property was never constructed and on April 15, 2008, the property was rezoned from GC back to AC. At its meeting of August 16, 2010, the Planning and Zoning Board held a public hearing in conjunction with the rezoning request and numerous people spoke in opposition to the rezoning and several people spoke in favor of the rezoning. The Board unanimously voted with a 6 to 0 vote (Pike stepping down) to recommend denial of the rezoning request. Mr. Dorling stated this denial was based on the concerns that the proposed zoning district would allow a myriad of uses which may be incompatible with adjacent residential uses. Staff recommends that the Commission pass this ordinance on first reading this evening so that this item can then proceed to a public hearing on September 21, 2010. Mr. Fetzer stated at last week's workshop he brought up some concerns about the way the process is going to work and he would like to make sure that all the residents understood what the Commission is doing this evening. He thanked City staff for getting the word out through some email blasts and the website. Mr. Fetzer stated under the State Statutes the City is required to go to a second reading and as a Commission they need to hear the testimony on both sides of this issue. Mr. Eliopoulos asked if they should be looking at zoning on its own and not a project. Mr. Dorling stated the Commission could appeal a decision based on that scenario. Mr. Eliopoulos stated in looking at the history of this, it was AC and got rezoned to GC, New Century Development group came in and it was submitted with an associated development of a mixed use project. Mr. Dorling stated there was significant discussion about a project that would be accommodated under that zoning classification. Mr. Eliopoulos asked if they should be looking at zoning on its own and not a project. Mr. Dorling stated the Commission could appeal a decision under that scenario based upon the fact the site plan that was proposed did not meet compatibility issues, etc. that may have been accomplished with the previous plan that was inadvertently tied to the zoning. Mr. Darling concurred that these are two distinct issues. Mr. Eliopoulos stated in 2008 at a Workshop meeting the Commission discussed the study for South Federal 20 09/07/10 Highway and asked if this been brought back to the Commission. Mr. Dorling stated Commission gave initial direction at that Workshop meeting and staff presented some land use scenarios on both sides of Federal Highway. The Plan has gone forward from that point and staff has done some preliminary land use analysis of the existing conditions out there and from staff's point of view the initial direction in 2008 was to go to a General Commercial (GC) type of land use on the cast side of the road with some mixed - use scenarios or straight commercial with significant buffers against the neighborhood. Mr. Dorling stated this has not come back before the City Commission. Mrs. Gray asked why the Planning and Zoning Board denied this project. Mr. Dorling stated the Board felt that GC (General Commercial) was too open ended and would allow any number of uses (i.e. Wal -Mart, etc.) that may be found incompatible with the adjacent residential uses. Mrs. Gray asked if the Commission agrees with staff's recommendation this evening, does that necessarily mean that they are approving or disapproving the project or does it mean that they are just moving it forward so that they can hear from the residents, Wal -Mart, and the attorneys. Mr. Dorling stated staff recommends that the Commission moved forward to the public hearing so that they can hear from all sides on the issue. Mayor McDuffie stated he would like to see this move forward so that every party receives due process. Mr. Eliopoulos moved to approve Ordinance No. 24 -10 on FIRST Reading, seconded by Mrs. Gray.
