SEPTEMBER 26TH~ 1950.
Regular meeting of the City Council of The City of
Delray Beach was held in the Council Chambers at 7:30 p.m.
with Mayor John N.Kabler in the Chair~ and City Attorney
John Moore, City Manager Charles E. Black, and the following
Councilmen present: R.J.Holland, W.A.Jacobs, Walter A. Roth,
and J.L.Saunders, a quorum being present.
The minutes of the meetings of the Council held
September 12th and 18th were approved as written.
City Manager Black advised the Council of a request
by property owners for the paving of S.W.~th St. from Swinton
Avenue west. He stated that the street is in a very bad condition,
but the owner of the property on the south has not dedicated his
portion of the right-of-way. He recommended that the street be
paved on the present right-of- way of 25' to a width of 15' or
20' instead of 22', from Swinton Ave. to SoW.$th Ave.
Upon motion of Councilman Roth, seconded by Council-
man Holland. and unanimously carried, the City Manager was
authorized to try to contact the owner of the property on the
south with reference to obtaining this additional right-of-way~
and also to prepare an estimate of the cost of paving the street
to a width of 18' on the present right-of-way of 2%'.
A letter from the Chamber of Commerce regarding the
organization of a Community Chest in this City, was read as follows:
September 22, 1950.
Honorable Mayor and City Councilmen
City of Delray Beach,
Delray Beach, Florida.
Gentlemen:
The Chamber of Commerce has been investigating
the feasibility of organizing a Community Chest for
Delray Beach~ since the question has been raised
year after year~
Mr. Vaden, Chairman of the Chamber's Community
Chest Committee, contacted various groups and organ-
izations recently to get their reaction. These groups
were in favor of the proposal, providing the Chest was
well organized and properly managed. However, to be
successful~ a Community Chest must have the support of
a large portion of the citizens.
9/26/~0
Therefore~ the Board of Directors of the Delray
Beach Chamber of Commerce respectfully request
that the Community Chest question be brought
before the voters and be included on the November
ballot.
Your careful consideration of this matter will
be appreciated.
Respectfully submitted,
DELRAY BEACH CHAMBER OF COM~RCE
CHARLES SENIOR
Charles Senior, President
No action was taken on the suggestion of the Chamber
of Commerce~ as a majority of the Council did not favor a
Community Chest at this time.
George W. McKay~ representing the colored citizens~
addressed the Council with reference to the continuation
of the paving of N.W. lst St. from 8th Avenue to the
Seaboard Railroad, as originally requested.
It was explained that the City Council had tried to
serve the most thickly populated area, and as funds are
limited, only a portion can be paved at a time. At a later
date streets will be paved or extended where needed.
City M~nager Black also stated that S.W.~th Ave. from
Atlantic Ave. south to ~rd Street has been requested~ and
later N.W.10th Ave. from Atlantic Avenue north to 2nd Street
both of which will be placed on the priority list as funds
become available.
Mr. McKay also complained that motorist disregard
the traffic light at the corner of West Atlantic Ave.
and 5th Ave.~ making it dangerous for school children
crossing at that corner. He asked that a Patrolman be
stationed there, or a school patrol be organized to
caution motorists.
He was instructed to work with the City Manager and
the Chief of Police in correcting this condition~ the
Council suggesting that either a "School" sign be placed
on that corner~ or that traffic be allowed to move on a
green light only~ instead of making a right hand turn on
a red light.
9126150
With reference to a bathing beach for colored citizens
it was suggested that the County be asked to help in providing
a location, or there was a possibility of making a lease
with an owner of a long stretch of oce~u front property south
of the City Limits.
Upon Motion of Councilman Holland. seconded by Council-
man Jacobs, and unanimously carried, the following building
permits, for new construction or alterations on the Federal
Highway, were approved, subject to final approval of the
Building Inspector as to compliance with Building Code and
Zoning requirements:
1. A Service Station for the Gulf 0il Co., on the
northwest corner of the N. Federal Highway and
~th St. Application filed by C.& R.Enterprises.
2. Application for permit to remodel canopy over
gas pumps, at the Cities Service Station, on the
southwest corner of the S. Federal Highway and
~th St.
3. Application for permit to build an addition to
the Sunoco Service Station on the N.Federal
Highway and ~th St., filed by Doherty & Snyder
Motors, Inc.
$. An addition to the Faircloth Buick Co. building
at 213 N. Federal Highway, to extend to the alley
in the rear.
With reference to the appointment of an Auditor to
audit the City books for the fiscal year ending September 30th,
1950, City Manager Black recommended that Mr. Frederick Dunn-
Rankin, who has audited our books for several years, be reapp-
ointed, as he felt he had always made a very thorough audit.
Councilman Jacobs! however, felt that different firms
should be given an opportunity to bid on this work, although the
City Attorney advised it was not required under the City Charter~
and upon motion of Councilman Saunders, seconded by Councilman
Jacobs, and unanimously carried, the City Manager was instructed
to advertise for bids in one issue of the local newspaper.
City Manager Black explained that due to the grading
of the Street, water stands in low places on S.E.lst Street
between 5th Ave. and ~th Ave., where a storm drain was recent-
ly installed, and recommended that temporary catch basins be
installed to connect with the sewer line.
9/26/50
Mr. Black also recommended an extension of the storm
sewer line on Sth Ave., from the alley north to Atlantic
Ave., to drain the corner of East Atlantic Ave.
He estimated the cost would be approximately $215.00
at the corner of S.E.~th Ave. and 1st St., and approximately
$351.00 at East Atlantic Avenue and ~th Avenue.
After consideration, a motion was made by Councilman
Saunders that the City Manager be authorized to proceed with
this work as he recommended. The motion was seconded by
Councilman Jacobs, and upon call of roll carried Unanimously.
Attorney L.H.Brannon, representing Dr.W.S.Carper, addressed
the Council, with reference to a tract of land of approximately
15 acres, in Section 18, which the City believed they owned
and had leased to the Police Benevolent Association for a
Rifle Range and Club House, but which had later developed
to be owned by Dr. Carper.
Mr. Brannon, on behalf of his client, offered to exchange
this land for a five acre tract of City owned land Just south
of Atlantic Avenue, east of the Seaboard Railroad, with the
provision that the City would set a minimum valuation on the
property until he had developed it or disposed of it; or
follow the recommendation of the Zoning Board in changing the
zoning of Lot 35, Block 13, Del Ida Park, which Dr. Carper
owns, to a Business zone; or sell the property in Section 18
to the City for $3500.00.
Mr. Brannon contended that the City leased the land to
the Police Benevolent Association, who had spent their money
and labor on the property, and he felt the City was obligated
to live up to its lease. He also believed that the property was
near enough to the Golf Course to become valuable to the City
as highly restricted residential lots in the future.
After a discussion of each proposition, Mayor Kabler
advised Mr. Brannon that the Council disfavored the exchange
of land; that they would not change the zoning on Dr.Carper's
lot, and they felt that $3,500.00 was an excessive ~rice to
ask for the fifteen acre tract of land in Section l~.
City Attorney Moore advised the Council that if Dr. Carper
should bring a suit against the City to obtain possession
of the land, the City could bring betterment proceedings in
an alternate suit, whereby the Police Benevolent Association
would be compensated for the improvements they have made in
good f~ith on the property.
Councilman Jacobs suggested that an offer of $150.00
an acre be made to Df.Carper, or that the five acre tract
of land the City owns be given to the Police Benevolent
Association and this amount of money contributed to them
toward rebuilding.
After further consideration by the Council, a motion
was made by Councilman Holland, and seconded by Councilman
9~26~5o
Jacobs, that an offer of $2,250.00 be made to Dr. Carper for the
tract of land in Section 18, with all taxes paid to date of
transfer, and that he be given until October 15th to accept
or reject the offer. Upon call of roll the motion carried
unanimously.
The following Ordinance was then brought up for second
and final reading, and same was read in full:

(Signed) Ruth R, Smith City Clerk
Councilman Jacobs objected to the passage of this Ordinance.
He claimed that this problem should be handled by the National
Government; that many of these so-called Communists were American
citizens, and that we were attacking their rights as citizens.
He was opposed to pushing undesirables from one comm?~nity to
another, as the Ordinance provides, and to making a person's
innocent family suffer for his wrong thinking. He believed that
this group of people were fanatics, and that they were hysterical
at the present time, but he had no fear of their attempting
to overthrow the government of this Country.
Mayor Kabler then explained that Municipalities have some
local responsibility in taking care of this situation. He felt
that every community in the Country should pass such an Ordi-
nance, that it will provide excellent propoganda if the people
of every City in the United States are firm against Communism.
A motion was made by Councilman Roth, seconded by Council-
man Saunders, that the foregoing Ordinance No.G-109 be passed
and adopted on final reading. Upon call of roll the motion
carried, Councilmen Holland, Kabler, Roth and Saunders voting
in favor of the motion, and Councilman Jacobs voting against it.
City Attorney Moore was instructed by the Council to
prepare final Ordinances to complete the annexation of certain
land in Section 18, and a tract of City owned land in Section 21.

A letter from Mrs. Eileen McKinney, Acting Principal

9/26/50
Delray Beach School
Delray Beach, Florida
September 16, 1950
City Council of Delray Beach
c/o Mr. Charles Black, City Manager
Delray Beach~ Florida.
Dear City Council:
You have seen evidence of the improvement of public property
on our school grounds as a result of county-wide cooperation
in the project initiated by local citizens under the leader-
ship of the Exchange Club.
I realize that the city is not in a financial position to
contribute a large cash donation to this enterprise.
However, I would appreciate your considering the possibility
of furnishing water for the project only.
Would you be kind enough to consider the following plan:
Send to the Board of Public Instruction a bill for water based
on themonthly average of the past five years which would be a
fair estimate of the water necessary to maintain and operate the
school based on past records; allow the city to assume responsib-
ility for the extra water used during this school year only or
during the inception of the ground improvement project in order to
give the Exchange Club a fair op?ort~mity to get grass started.
You would be interested to know that the following organizations
have already, contributed
5 ~prinklers, 150 feet of hose, use of roller, tractor,
fertilizer spreader, 2 trucks~ daily labor, ~500 sq.ft.
sod, 100 sq. Yds. top soil;
while the County School Board has provided cash and the use of
tractor~ labor~ grass cutting machine for the whole
block every two weeks, 2000 lbs. fertilizer, labor
of school custodians~ personal time and attention of
the County Supervisor of Maintenance, a member of the
Board of Public Instruction~ and the Superintendent of
Public Instruction, as well as that of the faculty and
principal, all of whom ~re supplied at the expense of
the County Board~ which simply does not have enough
money in the bank to supply every school in the county
with enough equipment, labor~ and supplies to keep
school grounds in the shape members of the Board desire.
Since you are in the same position~ you can appreciate the fact
that the School Board cannot obligate itself to pay bills with
an appropriation act passed by the state legislature when the
state fails to send to the Board cash promised by such a legis-
lative act.
9/26/50 '
You are in the position to relieve this situation some-
what by
being aware of the fact that Florida counties
are not receiving lO0~ of the allotment
intended for them in the 19%7 school law,
encouraging the participation of local citizens
in the continuation of the improvement of public
property using their own money, time and effort,
making it possible for the School Board to
continue to support the project, as it has
been doing, to the limit of its financial
and physical capacity,
enticing winter visitors with children to remain
in Delray because they are satisfied with local
school's appearance upon first impressions.
This request for you to furnish only the extra amount of
water necessary for the continuation and success of the
ground improvement project comes to you from me personally~
who as principal is in a position to understand the limit-
ations under which you and the county are forced to operate.
The request does not originate in the Superintendent's
office or in a meeting of the School Board. However, I feel
that both groups will approve of my suggestion. The Super-
intendent and the School Board will hear of it for the
first time when they receive carbon copies of this letter
to be mailed at the same time as the original sent to you.
For your protection and that of the School Board~ I am
not in a position to make the contents of this letter
public.
I should like to express my appreciation to the City
Council for the very fine cooperation the school has
always enjoyed from the City. I have been informed thru
the PTA of the Plans for observance of National Children's
Day in our city and realize what a fine contribution you
are making toward the school's program of education good
citizens for desirable community living, a task which
requires cooperative effort on the part of all adults
whether they are employed to do so or not.
Since my request originates in my office, I shall offer
to guarantee that water for yard improvement is used
conservatively. This means that I shall personally in-
spect and supervise the placing of sprinklers~ the length
of time they run~ and shall turn off the water myself
when necessary after the custodians have left the grounds.
I shall make every effort to compromise between the de-
mands of the Garden Club and the Exchange Club for more
water and the city's and county's demands for less, at
the same time keeping the grass alive.
9/26/50
Thank you for understanding.
Yours very truly,
Mrs. Eileen S. McKinney,
Acting Principal, 1950-51
After discussion o£ the project undertaken by the school
and Civic organizations, and in consideration of the fact that
water is donated to Churches by the City, a motion was made
by Councilman Jacobs, that this request be granted for the
current school year. The motion was seconded by Councilman
Holland, and upon call of roll carried unanimously.
Upon motion of Councilman Roth, seconded by Councilman
Jacobs, and unanimously carried, license to sell beer at 519
W. Atlantic Ave. was approved, subject to verification of
distance from a church or school.
A letter and form of Resolution submitted by Attorney
Harry A. Johnston, County Attorney, pertaining to the cont-
rolling of traffic over a portion of State Road AiA, or
Ocean Boulevard, was referred to the Fact Finding Committee
for study and recommendation.
Upon motion of Councilman Holland, seconded by Council-
man Saunders, and unanimously carried, action was deferred
until the next regular meeting on several applications for
"gratis" licenses, filed by persons over 65 years of age,
submitted by the Tax Collector for the approval of the Council.
The Tax Collector was instructed to issue free licenses
to disabled Veterans who can furnish proof of disability.
The meeting then adjourned.
