(The official copy of Resolution No. 79-04 is on file in the City Clerk's office. ) The City Attorney stated this resolution authorizes the expenditure of funds for education purposes as to the ballot issue on annexation. She stated the City had a motion for temporary injunction that was denied by the Court on Friday. The City Attorney stated she does not feel it is a good idea to appeal at this time on the temporary injunction; however, we can go forward with the ongoing lawsuit. The City of West Palm Beach has intervened and the City of Delray hopes that other cities will also intervene. The City Attorney stated this resolution entails the authorization to spend money for the education on this ballot issue. Mr. Levinson stated he had a conversation with Jamie Titcomb who suggested that the City of Del ray Beach authorize up to $25,000 and let the City Manager work with the PAC to identify what the City's fair share would be. The City Attorney stated having some money budgeted for education is not necessarily for the sole purpose of giving money to the PAC but to do some other items outside of the PAC. Mr. Levinson moved to approve to authorize up to $25,000 for educational purposes for informing voters as it relates to the annexation referendum and - 8 - 10/19/04 give the City Manager discretion to work with the League of Cities Board to identify a final amount which would be appropriate for our size City; and, approve Resolution No. 79-04, seconded by Mrs. Archer.

He stated as a host city the City of Delray Beach will be speaking at 2:00-2:03 p.m. and has to present their "wish list". Mr. Levinson suggested that the Commission create a "legislative agenda" similar to what has been done in the past. Ms. McCarthy stated she would like to make sure this information is passed along to EPOCH, Roots and any other organization that may not be represented this evening. Mr. Levinson suggested that a letter be sent to the Cultural Alliance. It was the consensus of the Commission to bring forth issues to be discussed at the November 9,2004 Workshop meeting. At this point, the Commission moved to Item 12, First Readings. 12. FIRST READINGS: 12.A. ORDINANCE NO. 60-04: An ordinance rezoning from CF (Community Facilities) and R-I-A (Single Family Residential) to RM (Medium Density Residential) for an 8.96 acre parcel of land for The Cottages at Banyan Village, located at the southwest corner of Swinton Avenue and S.W. 10th Street. If passed, a public hearing will be scheduled for November 2,2004. The caption of Ordinance No. 60-04 is as follows: AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF DELRAY BEACH, FLORIDA, REZONING AND PLACING LAND PRESENTL Y ZONED R-I-A (SINGLE F AMIL Y RESIDENTIAL) DISTRICT AND CF (COMMUNITY FACILITIES) DISTRICT TO RM (MEDIUM DENSITY RESIDENTIAL) DISTRICT; SAID LAND BEING A PARCEL OF LAND LOCATED AT THE SOUTHWEST CORNER OF SW 10TH STREET AND SOUTH SWINTON AVENUE, AS MORE PARTICULARLY - 9 - 10/19/04 DESCRIBED HEREIN; AMENDING "ZONING MAP OF DELRAY BEACH, FLORIDA, JULY 2004"; PROVIDING A GENERAL REPEALER CLAUSE, A SAVING CLAUSE, AND AN EFFECTIVE DATE. (The official copy of Ordinance No. 60-04 is on file in the City Clerk's office. ) The City Attorney read the caption of the ordinance and stated staff needs to work on the ordinance prior to dealing with the workforce housing issue in a restrictive covenant fashion. The City Attorney stated staff is not having a quasi-judicial hearing now; however, this is to inform the Commission of what the Planning and Zoning Board discussed. Paul Dorling, Director of Planning and Zoning, stated the Planning and Zoning Board considered this revision last night at their meeting and after significant discussion relating to the workforce housing that is being proposed as part of this petition they unanimously recommended approval of this request. At its meeting of June 8, 2004, the City Commission approved the FLUM amendment and rezoning. The approval was to facilitate transmittal of the amendment to the Department of Community Affairs (DCA) with direction that the applicant address concerns related to the density and affordable housing with staff before the amendment returned from the State. The applicant has been working with staff to meet the requirements of the Southwest Area Neighborhood Redevelopment Plan (provision of affordable housing) and has modified their rezoning application from RM-I0 to RM - a change in the proposed maximum allowable density from ten (10) dwelling units per acre to twelve (12) dwelling units per acre. Mr. Dorling stated if someone receives an RM designation you are guaranteed six (6) units to the acre and one can achieve up to twelve (12) based upon the degree that the performance standards are met that are identified in the LDR's. If there is a suffix placed on it (i.e. RM-I0) means that you have a range between 6 and 10 also based upon meeting the performance standards but you could not go above ten dwelling units per acre. The City Attorney stated with regard to the perfonnance standards as they currently exist, they do not address workforce housing as one of the criteria for density assessments. Furthermore, the City Attorney because of that and because staff has been working on this ordinance idea, suggested that staff postpone this so that staff can develop this ordinance. Michael Weiner, Attorney with Weiner & Aronson, P.A. (102 S. Swinton Avenue), Delray Beach, entered into the record an article from the October 17, 2004 Palm Beach Post. Mr. Weiner stated their deadline is December ih which would give them 30 days for publication of the ordinance, sufficient time for a Planning and Zoning meeting on the November 22nd, and two hearings (one on November 23rd and one on December ih). Mr. Weiner stated if the deadline of December ih cannot be met then - 10 - 10/19/04 they cannot move forward with the project. Ms. McCarthy declared a conflict of interest and stepped down from the dais. Mr. Costin moved to table Ordinance No. 60-04 on FIRST Reading with direction to proceed with haste, seconded by Mrs. Archer. Upon roll call the Commission voted as follows: Mr. Levinson - Yes; Mayor Perlman - Yes; Mr. Costin - Yes; Mrs. Archer - Yes. Said motion passed with a 4 to 0 vote. At this point, the time being 7:00 p.m. the City Commission moved to the duly advertised Public Hearings portion of the Agenda. 10. PUBLIC HEARINGS: 10.A. ORDINANCE NO. 48-04: Future Land Use Map Amendments (FLUM) for two separate parcels that are part of land swap activity associated with the establishment of the Intracoastal Park site. The first parcel is a small-scale (FLUM) Amendment from TRN (Transitional) to MD (Medium Density Residential 5-12 dwelling units per acre) and rezoning from POD (Professional and Office District) to RM (Medium Density Residential) for a 0.13 acre parcel that is currently owned by the Delray Harbor Club. The second parcel is a small-scale FLUM Amendment from TRN (Transitional), MD (Medium Density Residential 5-12 dwelling units per acre), and OS-C (Open Space-Conservation) to OS-C (Open Space-Conservation) and rezoning from POD (Professional and Office District), RM (Medium Density Residential), and CD (Conservation District) to OS (Open Space) which consists of 4.47 acres, generally located on the east side of South Federal Highway between S.E. 10th Street and Linton Boulevard. Prior to consideration of passage of this ordinance on Second and FINAL Reading, a public hearing has been scheduled to be held at this time. (Quasi-Judicial Hearing) The caption of Ordinance No. 48-04 is as follows: AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF DELRAY BEACH, FLORIDA, AMENDING THE FUTURE LAND USE MAP DESIGNATION AS CONTAINED IN THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN FROM TRN (TRANSITIONAL) IN PART, RM (MEDIUM DENSITY RESIDENTIAL 5-12 DU/AC) IN PART AND OS-C (OPEN SPACE, CONSERVATION) IN PART TO OS-C (OPEN SPACE, CONSERVATION), AND FROM TRN (TRANSITIONAL) TO MD (MEDIUM DENSITY RESIDENTIAL 5-12 DU/AC; ELECTING TO PROCEED UNDER THE SINGLE HEARING ADOPTION PROCESS FOR SMALL SCALE LAND USE PLAN - 11 - 10/19/04 AMENDMENTS; REZONING AND PLACING LAND PRESENTLY ZONED POD (PROFESSIONAL AND OFFICE DISTRICT) DISTRICT IN PART, RM (MEDIUM DENSITY RESIDENTIAL) DISTRICT IN PART AND CD (CONSERVATION) DISTRICT IN P ART TO OS (OPEN SPACE) DISTRICT, AND FROM POD (PROFESSIONAL AND OFFICE DISTRICT) TO RM (MEDIUM DENSITY RESIDENTIAL); SAID LAND BEING GENERALLY LOCATED ON THE EAST SIDE OF US HIGHWAY NO.1, BETWEEN SE 10TH STREET AND LINTON BOULEVARD, AS MORE P ARTICULARL Y DESCRIBED HEREIN; AMENDING "ZONING MAP OF DELRA Y BEACH, FLORIDA, mL Y 2004"; PROVIDING A GENERAL REPEALER CLAUSE, A SAVING CLAUSE, AND AN EFFECTIVE DATE. (The official copy of Ordinance No. 48-04 is on file in the City Clerk's office. ) The City Attorney read the caption of the ordinance. A public hearing and quasi-judicial hearing was held having been legally advertised in compliance with the laws of the State of Florida and the Charter of the City of Del ray Beach, Florida. Mayor Perlman read into the record the City of Delray Beach procedures for a quasi-judicial hearing for this item and all subsequent Quasi-Judicial items. Chevelle D. Nubin, Acting City Clerk, swore in those individuals who wished to give testimony on this item. Mayor Perlman asked the Commission to disclose any ex parte communications. No ex parte communications were disclosed. Paul Dorling, Director of Planning and Zoning, briefly reviewed the changes and stated POD (Professional and Office District) to RM (Medium Density Residential) and the largest tract is proposed to go from RM (Medium Density Residential), POD (Professional and Office District), and CD (Conservation District) to open space. Mr. Dorling stated this proposal relates to two different portions of properties that include the land conveyed to the Delray Harbor Club immediately to the north to accommodate additional parking and the remainder to contain a passive conservation area, additional boat ramps, and associated parking for the Intracoastal Park. Over the past year the City has been negotiating with FIND (Florida Inland Navigation District) to obtain a 30 year lease on MSA Tract 650. This lease would allow the City to utilize the property for the construction of additional boat ramps. A Real Property Exchange Agreement has been executed which involved land swaps between the parties. With this exchange completed, future land use and zoning changes are necessary to reflect the appropriate designations to accommodate the future uses. At its meeting of September 7, 2004, the City Commission initiated the small-scale Future Land Use Map - 12 - 10/19/04 amendments and zoning changes for both portions. At its meeting of September 27, 2004, the Planning and Zoning Board held a public hearing in conjunction with the Rezoning and FLUM amendment requests. Several members of the public representing the residential development (Harbourside) were in attendance. One person from the public spoke and did not see the need for additional boat ramps and suggested that development be limited to additional parking to overflow from Knowles Park. After reviewing the staff report and discussing the proposal, the Board unanimously voted 4-0 (Morris, Borchardt, Walker absent) to recommend that the requests be approved by adopting the findings of fact and law contained in the staff report, and finding that the request and approval thereof is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and meets the criteria set forth in Section 2.4.5(D)(5), 3.1.1 and 3.2.2 of the LDR's. Mayor Perlman declared the public hearing open. Stanley Shaw, 1 Harbourside Drive (#3405), Delray Beach, suggested that prior to moving forward with this ordinance the Commission take into consideration three key points: (1) sufficient parking, (2) consultation with Palm Tran about what will happen to the bus stop if it is to be moved, and (3) the swale (immediately at the approach to this particular property and what will be the entrance to this park). There being no one else from the public who wished to speak in favor or in opposition of Ordinance No. 48-04, the public hearing was closed. Prior to the vote, Mayor Perlman stated Mr. Shaw's concerns will be addressed during the site plan process and suggested that a fourth concern to buffer the facility be taken into consideration as well. Mayor Perlman noted that the Site Plan Review and Appearance (SPRAB) Board meeting will be held on Wednesday, November 10, 2004 at 6:00 p.m. in the City Commission Chambers. Mr. Costin moved to adopt Ordinance No. 48-04 on Second and FINAL Reading, seconded by Ms. McCarthy. Upon roll call the Commission voted as follows: Ms. McCarthy - Yes; Mayor Perlman - Yes; Mr. Costin - Yes; Mrs. Archer - Yes; Mr. Levinson - Yes. Said motion passed with a 5 to 0 vote. 10.B.

The City Attorney read the caption of the ordinance. A public hearing was held having been legally advertised in compliance with the laws of the State of Florida and the Charter of the City of Del ray Beach, Florida. Ms. McCarthy declared a conflict of interest and stepped down from the dais. Ron Hoggard, Senior Planner (redevelopment) stated Comprehensive Plan Amendment 2004-02 was approved on first reading in June 2004 and transmitted to the Florida Department of Community Affairs (DCA). The Plan includes twenty-eight text amendments and two land use plan amendments (one City initiated and one privately initiated). Mr. Hoggard stated there have been two changes since the DCA review. The first one is related to the ten year water supply facilities work plan and DCA has asked the City to withdraw that from the Comprehensive Plan since they extended the date for the requirements for adoption of the plan and local elements and in order to give the regional water management districts more time to complete their updated regional supply plans. Staff left the policy related to the Plan as part of the text amendments that call for adopting the Plan and how it integrates into the overall Comprehensive Plan. With regard to the second change, originally staff was amending the City's Five Year Capital Improvement Program and that was to provide for integrating the grant for the Parks Bond. The City has since adopted its revised Capital Improvements Program (CIP) this year and now the latest CIP is included in the Plan. One FLUM amendment is for the - 16 - 10/19/04 West Atlantic Overlay area from GC (General Commercial) to CBD (Central Business District) to support the Downtown Master Plan calling for one CBD District from 1-95 to A-I-A. The second FLUM amendment is for The Cottages at Banyan Village. This was sent to the State and gives the applicant a chance to work with staff on the affordability Issues. Mayor Perlman declared the public hearing open. Brenda Edwards, 702 S.W. 1st Street, Delray Beach (mother's home), stated the property has been placed in Trust and she is speaking on behalf of the Trust, asked how this transition will take place, what's the timeline for this transition, and what specifically will the homeowners' in the community be required to relinquish at some point in the future to support this change. There being no one else from the public who wished to address the Commission regarding Ordinance No. 29-04, the public hearing was closed. Mr. Hoggard stated a rezoning is not being done at 702 S.W. 1st Street. All that is being done is the City is adding additional potential to the property there within the existing RM (Medium Density Residential) District to make it go from 12 units per acre to 24 units per acre with affordability components. Mr. Hoggard stated the City is not going to be taking any property and explained there is no transition in the rezoning because it is not being rezoned. Mayor Perlman stated these amendments are in support of the Southwest Neighborhood Plan which was a resident driven plan that was being done over a period of a year or two. Mr. Hoggard stated the Plan called for higher density in this area in order to create more affordability options. Ms. McCarthy asked if an act of God were to happen and a house burned down, would the people who own those single-family homes today be able to rebuild a single family home. Mr. Hoggard stated single-family homes are allowable in the district. Mr. Costin moved to adopt Ordinance No. 29-04 on Second and FINAL Reading, seconded by Mr. Levinson.

Therefore, the City Attorney stated this ordinance applies to all general employees with the exception of those general employees represented by the NCF &0. Mayor Perlman declared the public hearing open. Carolyn Killings, Business Agent for Local 1227 representing the NCF&O for the City of Del ray Beach, asked for clarification regarding the ordinance. Gertrude Green, S.W. 4th Avenue, Delray Beach, stated she was born in Delray Beach on S.W. 4th Avenue and has recently moved a few years ago on Lake Ida Road.

ORDINANCE NO. 31-04 (SECOND READING/SECOND PUBLIC HEARING): An ordinance rezoning from GC (General Commercial) to CBD (Central Business District) for 41.53 acres ofland for properties generally located on the north and south sides of West Atlantic Avenue, between NW/SW 1st Avenue (100 Block) and NW/SW lih Avenue (1200 Block) within the West Atlantic Avenue Overlay District. Prior to consideration of passage of this ordinance on Second Reading/Second Public Hearing, a public hearing has been scheduled to be held at this time. (Quasi-Judicial Hearing) The caption of Ordinance No. 31-04 is as follows: AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF DELRAY BEACH, FLORIDA, REZONING AND PLACING LAND PRESENTL Y ZONED GC (GENERAL COMMERCIAL) DISTRICT TO CBD (CENTRAL BUSINESS DISTRICT) DISTRICT; SAID LAND BEING PARCELS OF LAND LOCATED ON THE NORTH AND SOUTH SIDES OF WEST ATLANTIC AVENUE, BETWEEN NW/SW 1ST AVENUE AND NW/SW 12TH AVENUE, AS MORE P ARTICULARL Y DESCRIBED HEREIN; AMENDING "ZONING MAP OF DELRA Y BEACH, FLORIDA, mL Y 2004"; PROVIDING A GENERAL REPEALER CLAUSE, A SAVING CLAUSE, AND AN EFFECTIVE DATE. (The official copy of Ordinance No. 31-04 is on file in the City Clerk's office. ) The City Attorney read the caption of the ordinance. A public hearing and quasi-judicial hearing was held having been legally advertised in compliance with the laws of the State of Florida and the Charter of the City of Del ray Beach, Florida. Chevelle D. Nubin, Acting City Clerk, swore in those individuals who wished to give testimony on this item. Mayor Perlman asked the Commission to disclose any ex parte communications. No ex parte communications were disclosed. Paul Dorling, Director of Planning and Zoning, stated this is the related rezoning associated with the actions the Commission took in the Comprehensive Plan. The Downtown Master Plan talked about creating a single zoning district that being CBD (Central Business District) to the ocean. Currently, this area is zoned CBD and this will change the commercial area from GC (General Commercial) to CBD (Central Business District) and will correspond with the Downtown Plan; it will be the CBD West Atlantic area, a CBD core area and then there is a CBD beach area. The CBD regulations would apply across the entire district. - 19 - 10/19/04 At its meeting of May 17, 2004, the Planning and Zoning Board held a public hearing on this item in conjunction with Comprehensive Plan Amendment 2004- 02. There was public testimony in opposition to the request that primarily related to concerns with displacing residences and property owners being forced to sell their properties for redevelopment. It was further explained that the rezoning of the existing commercially zoned properties to CBD was to apply one zoning designation for the downtown area and that it was not associated with any specific development proposal. The Board voted 4-0 (Pike, Sowards & Walker absent) to recommend approval of the proposed rezoning. Ms. McCarthy asked with this type of zoning are there any things that become non-conforming uses? Mr. Dorling stated financial institutions are a permitted use in the GC and now become a conditional use in the CBD; movie theatres become a conditional use in the CBD. The City Attorney stated if they are established they do not have to go through the process because they are automatically an approved conditional use. Mr. Dorling stated if they exist today then they would be considered to have conditional use approval upon adoption. Ms. McCarthy inquired about the businesses currently on West Atlantic A venue and asked if there are things that become non- conforming uses. Ms. McCarthy inquired about a vehicle care business that is already in place. Mr. Dorling stated the business could continue if it is a legal non-conforming use. The City Attorney stated a legal non-conforming use would apply and because it was established before in a sense it is grandfathered in and is acceptable. Ms. McCarthy inquired about what happens if a business sells before this ordinance is voted on. Mr. Dorling stated ownership does not make a difference because it would still be considered legal non-conforming. Mr. Dorling stated if the business is legally established as a non- conforming use and they do not cease operating for six months then the business can continue operating. Mayor Perlman opened the public hearing and stated if anyone from the public would like to speak in favor or in opposition of the ordinance, to come forward at this time. Mrs. Angela Randolph, 2525 N. Swinton Avenue, Delray Beach, asked how the rezoning will affect the people in the community regarding taxation. Mayor Perlman stated if someone has a private residence and is homesteaded the most the taxes could go up is 3% on an annual basis. Mrs. Randolph inquired about rental property in the overlay district. Mr. Levinson stated if the value of the property because their adjacent uses, both businesses would be valued for that highest and best use; however, for a single-family residence or a multi-family residence, the value of the property (in a commercial multi-family) is based upon the value of the rental mcome. Mr. Levinson stated the change from GC to CBD will have little impact by itself. There being no one else from the public who wished to address the Commission regarding Ordinance No. 31-04, the public hearing was closed. - 20- 10/19/04 Ms. McCarthy stated even under the GC zoning because of the market the taxes are going to continue to go up each year even if the zoning is kept the way that it is. Ms. McCarthy moved to adopt Ordinance No. 31-04 on Second Reading/Second Public Hearing, seconded by Mr. Costin. Upon roll call the Commission voted as follows: Mrs. Archer - Yes; Mr. Levinson - Yes; Ms. McCarthy - Yes; Mayor Perlman - Yes; Mr. Costin - Yes. Said motion passed with a 5 to 0 vote. 10.E.

Prior to consideration of passage of this ordinance on Second Reading/Second Public Hearing, a public hearing has been scheduled to be held at this time. The caption of Ordinance No. 58-04 is as follows: AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF DELRAY BEACH, FLORIDA, AMENDING THE CITY'S LAND DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS OF THE CODE OF ORDINANCES OF THE CITY OF DELRA Y BEACH, FLORIDA, BY AMENDING APPENDIX " A" TO PROVIDE A DEFINITION OF "ADULT GAMING CENTER", "COIN- OPERATED AMUSEMENT DEVICES" AND "SLOT MACHINES" , BY AMENDING ARTICLE 4.3, "DISTRICT REGULATIONS, GENERAL PROVISIONS" , SECTION 4.3.3 "SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS FOR SPECIFIC USES"; BY ENACTING A NEW SUBSECTION 4.3.3(AAA), "ADULT GAMING CENTERS", IN ORDER TO PROVIDE FOR REGULATION AND ZONING OF SUCH FACILITIES; AMENDING SECTION 4.4.9, "GENERAL COMMERCIAL (GC) DISTRICT", AND SECTION 4.4.12, "PLANNED COMMERCIAL (PC) DISTRICT" TO INCLUDE ADULT GAMING CENTERS AMONG THE CONDITIONAL USES ALLOWED IN BOTH THE GC AND PC ZONING DISTRICTS; ENACTING SECTION 113.03, "PROHIBITION OF CONSUMPTION, POSSESSION, OR SALE OF ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES", PROVIDING A SAVING CLAUSE, A GENERAL REPEALER CLAUSE, AND AN EFFECTIVE DATE. (The official copy of Ordinance No. 58-04 is on file in the City Clerk's office. ) The City Attorney read the caption of the ordinance. A public hearing was held having been legally advertised in compliance with the laws of the State of Florida and the Charter of the City of Del ray Beach, Florida. Paul Dorling, Director of Planning and Zoning, stated on January 6, 2004 the City Commission approved a conditional use for Spinners Arcade at Military Trail and Linton Boulevard. During the analysis the issue of whether this type of use would be considered gambling or not was discussed. At that time, similar operations in the State of - 22- 10/19/04 Florida, more notably in the County of Sarasota were being reviewed by the courts to determine whether they met the definition of Arcade Amusement Facility and are therefore exempt from Florida's prohibition on gambling. The Court system has come back with a finding that it does not meet the condition of gambling. In a concern that there would be an influx of these adult arcade establishments at its meeting of July 20, 2004, the City Commission approved an ordinance (Ordinance No. 37-04) extending the moratorium for 90 days (October 20, 2004) to complete the LDR amendments. Ordinance No. 58-04 allows the type of use as a conditional use in the GC (General Commercial) and the Planned Commercial (PC) and also establishes criteria to ensure reduction in any secondary effects that would have a negative impact on the general public as well as the area surrounding the use. The proposed amendment does not permit adult gaming centers within 1,000 feet of an existing adult gaming center and does not permit the use within a designated redevelopment area or in historic structures. At its meeting of September 27, 2004, the Planning and Zoning Board held a public hearing regarding the amendment. There was no public testimony regarding the proposed changes. After discussing the amendment, the Board voted 4-0 (Borchardt, Morris & Walker absent) to recommend approval of the proposed amendment, based upon positive findings with LDR Section 2.4.5(M). At first reading, there was a comment by the City Commission whether there were additional court cases still pending. Mr. Dorling stated there is a case pending before the 5th District Court of Appeals in V olusia County and if this DCA does in fact determine the use to be gambling then the differences between the two district courts would likely have to be certified by the Florida Supreme Court. Mayor Perlman declared the public hearing open. There being no one who wished to address the Commission regarding Ordinance No. 58-04, the public hearing was closed. Prior to the vote, Mayor Perlman stated he dislikes these things; however, he feels the City is being forced to have some regulations because of the way the current court system has gone. He stated on a conditional use this does give the City the ability to talk about compatibility issues, etc. Mr. Levinson moved to adopt Ordinance No. 58-04 on Second Reading/Second Public Hearing, seconded by Mr. Costin. Upon roll call the Commission voted as follows: Ms. McCarthy - Yes; Mayor Perlman - Yes; Mr. Costin - Yes; Mrs. Archer - Yes; Mr. Levinson - Yes. Said motion passed with a 5 to 0 vote. At this point, the Commission moved to Item 11, Comments and Inquiries on Non-Agenda Items from the Acting City Manager and the Public. 11.A. Actin2 City Mana2er's response to prior public comments and inQuiries. - 23 - 10/19/04 Robert A. Barcinski, Acting City Manager, had no response to prior public comments and inquiries. 11.B. From the Public. 11.B.1. Re2inald Butler. 4639 Franwood Drive. Delrav Beach. asked the Commission why they decided to move from a GC (General Commercial) district to a CBD (Central Business District). Mayor Perlman stated the rationale is the City of Delray Beach created a Downtown Master Plan to put the zoning in place to facilitate that Plan. It's basically looking for consistency and redefining the Plan to include everything from 1-95 to A-I-A. Ms. McCarthy stated there were meetings that were held for citizens who live in the areas and in the communities that abut it (anyone who wished to attend). These people came to conclusions of what they wanted to see in the downtown area on West Atlantic Avenue. Consequently, the Downtown Master Plan was developed along with the Southwest/Northwest Plan. In order to achieve the goals that were developed from the citizens' input, it required some zoning changes so the products they were looking for would be able to be incorporated and become a reality. All the input from the meetings has been put into a Master Plan and now the Plan is beginning to be implemented. In order to move forward with the Plan, some of the zoning has to be changed and modified to accommodate the suggestions that were made. Mr. Butler inquired about some of the pros and cons. Ms. McCarthy suggested that Mr. Butler get a copy of the Downtown Master Plan and review it. In addition, she would like to meet with Mr. Butler once he reviews the Plan. At this point, the Commission moved to Item 13, Comments and Inquiries on Non-Agenda Items. 13. COMMENTS AND INQUIRIES ON NON-AGENDA ITEMS. B.A. Actin2 City Mana2er Robert A. Barcinski, Acting City Manager, had no comments or inquiries on non-agenda items. 13.B. City Attornev The City Attorney had no comments or inquiries on non-agenda items. 13.C. City Commission 13.C.1. Mrs. Archer - 24- 10/19/04 Mrs. Archer stated this past weekend with the support of the Drug Task Force the South County Recovery Residents' Association had its second seminar. There were approximately 6-7 sober house operators in attendance and the purpose of the seminar was to set forth their operating requirements for facilities such as sober houses in an effort to upgrade the quality of maintenance of the owners of these dwellings and to make sure that new individuals who come into the area and want to try and operate such a sober house understand the requirements to do this as set forth by the City codes, the Police Department, and the Fire Department. She stated in attendance there was Police Chief Schroeder, Assistant Fire Chief Bill Adams, and Code Enforcement Supervisor Tom Meeteer giving information about the City of Delray Beach. It's been approximately eight months since their first seminar in February and since that time reports from the Police Chief and Code Enforcement indicated that there has been a 50- 60% drop in the number of complaints or calls associated with sober houses. Mrs. Archer stated the Drug Task Force is very pleased with the fact that they have supported this effort and that the operators have been most helpful and cooperative in an effort to try and assist in raising the level of operators in addition to eliminating the operators who have not been performing satisfactorily. She stated she sees this as huge success. Also, Mrs. Archer commented about some additional information that came up at the seminar and noted the Department of Children and Families (DCF) is now establishing criteria for sober houses based upon the State Supportive Based Initiatives which means they will have to set forth criteria for the State for registering sober houses in order to be able to provide support for them so that there will be some regulatory authority involved. 13.C.2. Mr. Costin Mr. Costin had no comments or inquiries on non-agenda items. 13.C.3. Ms. McCarthv Ms. McCarthy had no comments or inquiries on non-agenda items. 13.CA. Mr. Levinson Mr. Levinson commented about the North Swinton Historic Area Proposal and stated he has been receiving emails and telephone calls from several people who were concerned over the timing because many people were not here at the time the notice of the first meeting was conducted. He asked if the City Attorney's office has a question and answer sheet and maybe some other things that might help mitigate some concerns about it. He stated one individual stated she was not going to be able to buy homeowner's insurance if her house was designated historic. Mr. Levinson suggested that the Commission be updated on the status and possibly interject some correspondence to some of the people in this neighborhood. Paul Dorling, Director of Planning and Zoning, stated has distributed correspondence (i.e. questions and answers). Mr. Dorling stated it is scheduled to come back to the Historic Preservation Board (HPB) on November 3, 2004 specifically to - 25 - 10/19/04 address the insurance issue. He stated it does not relate to whether someone is in a historic district or not but relates to the age of the structure. If this is approved by HPB on November 3, 2004, then it will be before the Commission on November 16, 2004. If HPB approves the Lake Ida District, this would be before the Commission for a first reading on November 2,2004 and a second reading on November 16, 2004. Mr. Costin stated he has been doing a lot of research on this issue because he too has received numerous calls and letters. He stated Mr. Dorling is correct that it does not have to do with the designation of a historic district or a historic structure; it's the age of the building. Mr. Costin stated he was informed by several insurance agents that some insurance companies are seriously considering a 25 year age limit on a policy before an individual updates wiring, plumbing, roofing, etc. Some companies have a 25, 35, 40, and 50 year policy termination unless you upgrade your residence. Mr. Levinson stated he just wants to make sure that we are getting the word out so that people are aware of it. He stated there is an email network through the Lake Ida Homeowners' Association and reiterated that if there is a document with questions and answers (most frequently asked questions) it may help to answer many of the concerns. Mr. Dorling stated staff has had a couple public hearing items, have attended association meetings in addition to distributing a brochure of the positives and negatives of being in a district and made presentations to them. 13.C.5. Mavor Perlman Mayor Perlman stated he received a telephone call from Office Depot and they are going to hold off on their move to Boca Raton pending the hiring of a new CEO (national search) which could take up to three months. Today, he was informed that the memo that went out to the employees was that Office Depot was going to sell the property that they had put under contract in Boca and reinvest in the Delray Beach site. Mayor Perlman stated this was a little different information than what was told to him yesterday. Mayor Perlman stated he would like to keep this Fortune 500 Company here and announced on November 19, 2004, the Commission will meet the Interim CEO. Secondly, Mayor Perlman stated he had a meeting yesterday with a group called the SHEF A Fund which is out of Philadelphia. He stated this is a Philanthropic group that is looking to raise $600,000 for mortgages and to assist homeownership. He stated they defined it as the Village Academy neighborhood (Southwest area) where they would like to concentrate their efforts. He stated this would help people to purchase homes and would be like a revolving loan pool and would be below interest rate market mortgages. Mayor Perlman asked that this item be placed on the November 9, 2004 Workshop agenda. He reported that before the hurricane, the Florida Redevelopment Association won a first place award for the marketing of the Downtown Master Plan. Mayor Perlman stated we continually run across people that have not heard about it or do not know the contents. He feels the marketing plan was good but noted there is a - 26- 10/19/04 - continued need to constantly work on public information and communication in a practical way. Lastly, Mayor Perlman stated the Residents' Academy began last week and he, Vice Mayor McCarthy, and Commissioner Archer were in attendance. He encouraged people from the public to sign up for the Residents' Academy. There being no further business, Mayor Perlman declared the meeting adjourned at 8:05 p.m. ~~~.~)\~~ Acting City Clerk ATTEST: ~l~ 1\ OR The undersigned is the Acting City Clerk of the City of Delray Beach, Florida, and the - information provided herein is the Minutes of the Regular City Commission Meeting held on October 19, 2004, which Minutes were formally approved and adopted by the City Commission on November 16, 2004 ~D.\J~ Acting City Clerk NOTE TO READER: If the Minutes you have received are not completed as indicated above, this means they are not the official Minutes of the City Commission.
