.Revised Repor,t
The County crane has been working on the beach filling
in for a 20' shoulder and should be completed this next
week.
It is possible no charg~ will be made by the
County for this service.
There is additional work to be done on the shoulders,
such as, seeding, planting salt water bermuda grass and haul-
ing in 2" of top soil. This salt water grass has been
donated by Mr. George White who is a representative of the
"John B. Reid Village". There?is sufficient grass in the
Village to complete the Job on the shoulders.
Approximately 1000 ft. of l~ and 2" water main
is yet to be installed and four additional showers,~
are needed.
Some discussion was given to a sprin~ler sys-
tem, but the Committee decided the cost was prohibitive
and it was agreed to wait until more money was avail-
able, every 100 ft. a plugged tee will be left for
future sprinkler connection.
New steps, walks and shower platforms are needed
in~,additio~i to repairing the ones that are now in
use.
ESTIMATED COSTS

and spreading top soil $ 400.00

City Manager Black stated that he estimated to additional
cost of cleaning the entire beach th year-round, would be app-
roximately $ 2,000.00. One Life Guard during the summer months, and
two during the winter m~nths, would be an additional expense
of $ 1,200.00, and twenty new benches of a durable type would
~ost about $ 400.00.
The Council was in favor of keeping a Life Guard on the
Beach at all times, but did not feel the expense of cleaning
the entire Beachthe year-round would be Justified.
Mr. Chas. Senior, President of the Chamber of Commerce,
addressed the Council, ststing that they felt that maintaining
the Beach was the most important community project. He asked the
Council to consider their proposals in its budget for the
coming year. Mr. Senior also iuvited the members of the Council
to attend their next Board meeting, which will be held at 8
o?clock on June 2Oth, at which time their plans for operation for
the coming year will be discussed.
A letter form King S. Cone, on behalf of the American
Legion, requesting permission to erect a monument in memory
of deceased Veterans, in the local Cemetery, preferably in the
Circle, was referred to the City Manager.
Mrs. Alice Mayer, owner of several properties in Block
125, again appeared before the Council with reference to
the increase in taxes on her properties during the last three
years, and the reduction in taxes on other properties in the same
block.
The City Manager was instructed to check the cubic
footage of these buildings, to verify the correctness of ass-
essments, and report at the next meeting.
Proofs of publication of Resolutions Nos. 789 and 760
calling hearings for objections to the confirmation of these
Resolutions ordering the rocking of alleys running through
Blocks lO1 and ll4, were spread upon the minutes as follows:

Attorney J. W. Nowlin, representing Niss Ella Harding, owner
of Lots ll and 12, Block ll4, protested the opening of the alley
through this block, stating that Niss Harding had built one
building on the rearof her lots and planned to build a larger
building on the fron~tof the property. By opening the alley
as a public thoroughfare, she felt it would be detr ~mental to
her property and she would not care to erect another building.
Nr. Nowlin also stated that it had been the policy of the City
in the past not to pave streets or alleys unless 81% of
the property owners affected requested it, and he asked the
Council to continue this policy, and not open this alley on the
request of bnly one person.
City;~Nanager Black explained that the alley was now rocked
a short distance from each end, which left only about 200' in the
center unpaved, and it seemed practical to pave the remaining
portion, as it would enable the City garbageand trash trucks
to make their collections through the alley, and it would be
possible to keep the alley e~ear and clean.
Letters of protest were also filed from Cecil S. Farrar,
and Arthur V. Williams, owners of property in Block ll4,
requesting that this improvement not be made.
Upon motion of Councilman Saunders, seconded by Councilman
Roth, and unanimously carried, the proposed paving of the alley
through this Block was abandoned.
Objections were then asked for pertaining to the rocking
of the alley through Block lO1, and as none were received , the
following Resolution was introduced:
Rw~0LUTION NO. 761 A

THE CITY OF DELRAY BEACH, FLORIDA,
AUTHORIZING THE CITY ENGINEER TO
