MEMORANDUM
TO: David T. Harden, City Manager
FROM: ØR0bert A. Barcinski, Assistant City Manager/
Administrative Services
SUBJECT: STATUS SPADY PROJECT
DATE: August 14, 1992
Joe Safford, Lula Butler, Jeff Kurtz and I met to review the
status of the Spady project to determine what actions need to be
taken, and to assign responsibility.
FINANCIAL
QD funds need to be deposited with the Clerk of the Court for
property acquisition .equa I to $685,5l5. We have already
deposited $121,500. Jeff has estimated that we need to reserve
an· additional 20% of the acquisition costs for attorney fees and
possible increase in award by the jury, or approximately
$125,000. The balance in the Decade of Excellence Bond account
for this project is $68,558.48. Funds have been spent or
encumbered to date for design, attorney fees, surveying,
construction, and, part of the acquisition costs. Additional
funding will be needed for demolition costs and possibly
relocation costs.
~ It is our understanding that additional City funds needeg for
this project would come from the Storm Water Utility Fund.
However, no official CommissIon action was taken on this. Joe
Safford is preparing an ?genda request to handle this matter.
The County School Board is required to pay the City 50% of the
acquisition costs, up to $400,000, within vesting of title.
Title will be vested when we deposit the funds on 8/21/92. Jeff
is going to write a letter to Bill Hukill requesting 50% of
$685,515 and will let them know that this may not be the final
amount. He will also test the waters to see if they are going
to share in the demolition and relocation costs.

DEMOLITION/RELOCATION
Technically, our agreement with the School Board does not
require the City to pay for demolition and relocation costs on
the property we give to the School Board. It is our opinion,
however, that practically we may have to undertake these
activities ourselves, if we wish to get it done in a timely
manner.
Lula is going to get demolition estimates and will be making
contact with the owners to encourage them to vacate their
properties and to try to determine what our relocation
responsibilities and costs might be. Relocation would be
governed by our own in-house policies, not by Federal
Regulations.
A decision will have to be made to determine if we will assume
all demolition and relocation costs, if the School Board does
not, in order to clear the property in a timely manner.

SALE OF 5.5' CITY PROPERTY
DATE: August 14, 1992
ACTION
City Commission is asked to consider a request to purchase the
north 5.5' of the Cason Cottage property.
BACKGROUND
A request has been received from Kathi Sumrall on behalf of the
property owner at 119 N. Swinton Avenue to purchase the north
5.5' of the Cason Cottage lot. The length of the lot is 131' .
Total square footage would be 720.5 square feet. The purpose of
the request is to make the lot at 119 North Swinton a standard
50' lot and to cure an encroachment of the driveway and hedge.
Staff has reviewed this request in conjunction with the parking
expansion project for the Cason Cottage site and have determined
the sale can be accommodated without serious impact to the
parking plan. Two landscape waivers will need to be granted.
Based on current land values for property in the area (per the
tax record), we would suggest an asking price of $2,000.00.
If Commission agrees to the sale and a starting price, staff
will complete all the legal requirements.

Delray Beach, Florida 33444
Dear David:
We are in the process of sell ing a house located at ll9 North
Swinton Avenue. This house is the first house immediately to the
north of the Cason Cottage "reserve parking area". It is the white
frame house with a detached one car garage to the rear. This
property has been owned by the Armentrout (Schwartz) family for a
very long time. The legal description of the property is as
follows:
The north 44.5 feet of Lot 5, Block 67, Town of Delray
This makes the Armentrout lot "substandard". If you take a look at
the property, the hedge and part of the driveway are on the city
property. We believe that if the city would sell 5 . 5 ' to the
prospective purchaser, this would then make her lot a standard SO'
width and cure the encroachment of the driveway and hedge.
Would you please have one of your staff check to see if this would
be possible and if so, how much would the city charge the
prospective purchaser? This would be a direct dea 1 . . . no realtor
commission involved.
Thanks David for your help in this matter.
Kathi Sumrall

FROM: DAVID J. KOVACS, DIRECTOR
DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING AND ZONING
SUBJECT: SPECIAL MEETING OF AUGUST 18, 1992
REQUEST FOR EXTENSION OF MARINA CAY SAD
ACTION REQUESTED OF THE COMMISSION:
The action requested of the City Commission is that of
direction as to how to proceed with a request for an
extension of the Marina Cay SAD. Under current
regulations, an extension cannot be granted.
Marina Cay is a proposed mixed use development with retail,
residential, restaurant, and marina components. It is to
be located on eleven acres of land between Federal Highway
and the Intracoastal Waterway, south the Flea Market.
This item has been placed before the City Commission at the
direction of the Mayor.
BACKGROUND:
Attached is correspondence from Lois Kelly, General Partner,
requesting an extension; and from David Kovacs setting forth the
reasons why an extension cannot be granted.
Under current regulations, the manner in which Marina Cay would
proceed is through a new zoning petition accompanied by
appropriate fees and up-dated submittal information (including
an up-dated traffic study) ; it is not permissible to grant an
extension.
In order to consider an extension, it would first be necessary
to amend our development regulations. An amendment to the SAD
regulations (treating an extension to a SAD as a special case,
apart from extensions from pre-LDR site plans and Conditional
Use items), would have implications for previously approved, but
currently expired SAD approvals for Isles of Delray and the 8th
Street Marina. Also, such an approach would have implications
for pre-LDR site plan and Conditional Use approvals.
SPq-
"
"
, .
.
city Commission Documentation
Request for Extension of Marina Cay SAD
Page 2
With expiration of the SAD, the project "disappears" and the
property has a special zoning designation (SAD) without a site
(development) plan. Thus, in order to put any use on the
property it is necessary to first go through a rezoning process.
Also, with expiration, reservations of capacity in the sewer,
water, and traffic systems which is currently allocated for the
Marina Cay project loses its priority i.e. if necessary that
capacity would be allocated to other projects which come on
line.
Thus, the directions which the City Commission may pursue
include:
1- That the property owner follow the procedures laid out in
the regulations and proceed through the rezoning process; or,
2. Direct the Administration to come back with an ordinance
which will accommodate the petitioners request.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Commission's discretion.

Re: Request for Extension, Marina Cay SAD
Dear Lois:
Your letter request of July 9, 1992, has been referred to this
office for analysis and a reply. For various reasons, as
identified below, your request cannot be accommodated. In order
to seek a new approval for establishment of use, a new rezoning
petition with attendant submittal materials must be filed.
Among the reasons that we cannot accommodate your request are:
* the request was not received at least forty-five (45) days
prior to the expiration date [2.4.4(F)(l)(a)];
* as with your previous request for extension, the original
approval was pre-LDR; accordingly, the LDR provision which
prohibits the extension of a development order previous to
October 1, 1990, applies. The extension which you received
in March, 1991, did not give you an approval but only
modified the previous termination date;
* with the code revisions of March, 1991, it is clear that
the expiration date of a Large Scale Mixed Use SAD is to be
per a date stated in the enacting ordinance. Ordinance No.
32-91 established that date as being August 22, 1992;
* the "special relief" provisions under which your previous
request was considered are no longer valid. They expired
on May 1, 1992.

Besides going through the rezoning process, as directed pursuant
to Section 2.2.25(C)(3), the only other avenue of relief is
through a direct appeal to the City Commission or the Planning
and Zoning Board who may initiate an amendment to our Land Use
Development Regulations.

City Manager advised that with respect to the City Marina, staff
is recommending that we increase the dockage fees at the marina
by ten percent (10%); that would be from the current $.30/foot
per day to $.33/foot per day. Asked for reaction from the
Commission. Also advised that the increase should bring us in
about another $8,000 or so in revenue. Consensus of the
Commission was that they would be in favor of such an increase.

To: City Commission
From: Jeffrey S. Kurtz, City Attorney
Subject: Robert Rollinson v. City of De
Our File No. 05-91. 020
The Risk Manager and I attended a mediation in the above-
referenced lawsuit on August 12, 1992. The matter is currently
set on a docket beginning September 8, 1992. The Risk Manager
and I are recommending a settlement in the amount of $9,000 in
this case. This expense would be less than the cost of
concluding expert discovery and paying for our own expert fees
and court reporter fees through trial. While the Risk Manager
I and I CQncur that no liability should be assigned to the City
in this càse, we are recommending settlement. The reason for
that recommendation is that it will cost us more than that
amount to go to trial and the exposure is extremely high in
this case.
On December 28, 1989, Robert Rollinson was jogging along the
east side of Dover Road approximately one-quarter mile north of
Linton Boulevard. A speeding vehicle traveling southbound on
Dover Road crossed over its lane and onto the shoulder of the
road to strike Mr. Rollinson in the back. Mr. Rollinson nearly
died as a result of the accident and has thus far incurred over
$500,000 in medical expenses. While his recovery has been
amazing, there remains permanent injuries to his body and it is
anticipated that further surgeries will be required. The
vehicle that struck Mr. Rollinson was never found, as there
were no witnesses to the accident and the car kept on going
after it had struck Mr. Rollinson. I would anticipate that
damages in this case, if a jury were to find liabii.ity, wouJ..d
be in the several millions of dollars.
The plaintiffs are alleging that the City failed to maintain
the roadway and shoulder in a proper condition. The City has
found no evidence of any defects on the roadway or in the
maintenance of that roadway and I would be confident of success
at trial. Nonetheless, one has to acknowledge that Mr.
t;pCo
,.

Rollinson makes a sympathetic plaintiff and the damages in this
case are extremely high. Furthermore, there are no guarantees
possible when one is going to trial, and therefore, our office
would recommend the settlement for the $9,000. It is expressly
contemplated that $7,500 of the monies be used for Robert
Rollinson's continued education. He is preparing to enter
Florida Atlantic University to study accounting, as he has
completed his course work at Palm Beach Junior College. A rate
of $1,500 will be paid to experts that his attorney has engaged
and no monies will be paid to his attorney as attorney's fees.
It should also be noted that the plaintiff's costs in expert
fees exceed $1,500 at this time.
Should the commissioners have any questions concerning this
matter, please do not hesitate to contact our office.

Subject: 10th Street Southwest/Southeast Proposed Improvements,
City of Delray Beach (Our Ref. No. 92·151.00)
Dear Mr. Greenwood:
As you requested, we have reviewed the estimated storm drainage costs
for the proposed lOth Street project.
The estimated costs, as shown on Exhibit A of our original submittal,
indicate a total storm drainage cost of $2,014,500. This cost provides for
the construction of a major outfall along 10th Street, serving areas north and
south of 10th Street, as part of the Stormwater Master Plan.
We reviewed two possible methods of allocating a portion of that total
cost to the 10th Street project as follows:
Method No. 1 - Allocation of costs as a percentage of the total drainage
area:
Natural drainage now flowing to 10th Street amounts to approximately
11.7 percent of the total area to be drained by the Master Drainage Plan
outfall for 10th Street. Based upon this calculation, the allocation to lOth
Street would be approximately $236,000.
Method No. 2 - Estimated costs of a storm drainage system to serve lOth
Street only:
If a project were designed to serve only that drainage which now drains
directly to 10th Street, it is estimated that the construction cost would be
approximately $580,000.
If you would like to discuss this in more detail, please let me know.
Very truly yours,
RJW:nc

BUDGET ESTIMATE FOR SOUTHWEST 10TH ST.
Project: The City of Delray desires to improve SW 10th St. from west of
Germantown Rd. to northbound r;'ederal Highway. Consideration is being
given to 3-lane, 4-lane, and 5-lane roadway improvements.
EXISTING CONDmONS
SW 10th St. exists as a 2-lane roadway with little or no formal stormwater
drainage system.
The existing right of way varies in width from 50 feet to 90 feet.
The adjacent land for the most part is occupied with residential structures
including fences, hedges, and other improvements.
There 'are existing underground and aboveground utilities within the right of way.
There is a highly sensitive fiber optics and defense cable crossing of SW 10th St. in the
vicinity of the FEC railroad.
CONSIDERATIONS
A 3-lane roadway can be constructed without additional right of way acquisition.
However, should the road be widened in the future beyond the 3-lane capacity it will be
necessary to remove concrete curb and sidewalk for the roadway expansion.
Any roadway construction beyond 3-lane capacity at this time will require right of
way acquisition which will require more extensive surveying, right of way maps, parcel
descriptions, appraisals, negotiations with property owners, and probable condemnation
of private property. The condemnation of land will involve court costs of both the city
personnel, staff, professional consultants and expert witnesses as well as the attorneys'
fees and expert witnesses of the private property owners.
The city presently has two other projects active in the vicinity of SW 10th St.
These projects are a master stormwater management plan and certain street
improvement projects. The proposed design of SW 10th St. should consider an ultimate
outfall for the drainage area related to the area including the proposed street
improvement projects.

It
"
--.-+", -. ~
CONCLUSION
The estimated construction cost and engineering fees are shown on "Exhibit A".
Exhibit A also has an estimated quantity for land acquisition for the 80 foot right
of way section. Without the benefit of a land survey, right of way map and appraisal, it
is difficult to estimate the cost of the taking. This matter was discussed with a real
estate appraiser and it was indicated that the land cost for residential property without
damage to the remainder could be $7 per sq. foot.

Re: PROPOSED LAKE IDA ROAD DESIGN
SWINTON TO CONGRESS AVENUE
LANDSCAPE MEDIAN CROSS-SECTION
Dear Mr. Webb:
As you are aware, the City of Delray Beach has an extensive roadway
beautification program. As a part of our overall program, landscape
improvements were targeted for Lake Ida Road and some funding has been
set aside for that purpose. The current cross-section for the
County's Phase I of the Lake Ida Road Improvement Project (Congress to
Swinton) does not accommodate our desire for a landscape median.
Further, the County's 5-Year Road Plan calls for construction of this
section in FY 92/93 with a tentative start date in early 1993.
t
While the roadway plans are near com~letion for the construction of a
5-lane section, we understand that there is still the ability to alter
the design without excessive delay in completing the project. Our
City Traffic Engineer has been working with the County Roadway
Production Division relative to a possible redesign. The parameters of
the work include the following:
1- Proposal: A cross-section in general conformance with a typical
section as referenced in a letter from Javier Lopez, P.E. , dated
June 1, 1992; and the subsequently submitted red-marked plans
showing median openings and turn lanes. In general, the proposal
involves:
A. obtaining about 5.5' of right-of-way from Sta 137+20 to
approximately Sta 158+80.
B. accommodation of seven ( 7 ) landscape medians (hardscape by
County, landscape separate by the City) between Congress
and N.W. 5th Avenue in lieu of the designed fifth lane.
C. accommodation of five (5) turn lanes in lieu of the designed
fifth lane.
D. accommodation of one ( 1) right turn lane to serve future
development.

r· Mr. George Webb, P.E.
, Proposed Lake Ida Road Design - Swinton Avenue to Congress
Avenue - Median Cross-section
Page 2
E. accommodation of turning movements onto an extension of N.W.
10th Avenue which is currently designed, permitted, and
under construction.
F. a wall which exists adjacent to nine ( 9 ) lots of the Lake
Ida Shores Addition will be demolished as a part of the
construction project (provided that it is located within the
to-be-deeded right-of-way). Any new wall will be designed
and constructed through arrangements between the City and
the affected property owners and homeowners association.
2. Conditions to Accommodating Redesign: Through discussion among
our staff, I understand the following accommodations are to be
met:
A. the cost of redesign, as it pertains to changes A through D,
above, are to be at the City's expense;
B. the City must provide, by deed, the additional right-of-way;
C. by pursuing redesign, the overall scheduling (in the 5-year
program) will not change; however, the start date may likely
be delayed until the end of FY 92/93.
3. Additional Conditions: In addition to the above, a property
owner (Isles of Delray) has required the following in order to
obtain the needed 5.5' of additional right-of-way from Sta 137+20
to Sta 146+40:
A. In that there is excessive right-of-way provided along Isles
of Delray property from Sta 126+60 to l37+20, he desires
that it be abandoned (8.5' after accommodating the 5.5' need
for the proposed section). The excess right-of-way was
dedicated by plat, in 1980, to the "City Council of Delray
Beachll. Given this situation, may the City consummate the
abandonment process, or must the County do so? If the
County must act, what time frame is involved and must such
an abandonment precede redesign efforts? Please note that
this abandonment will be compensation for his dedication of
right-of-way from Sta 137+20 to sta 146+40.
B. Accommodation of a westbound right turn lane, across from
Roosevelt - this turn lane would be needed to accommodate
access into the yet to be developed portion of Isles of
Delray. It seems appropriate to construct this feature
concurrently with the other road improvements; this is true
from both a convenience and ultimate cost savings
perspective.
Given all of the above, I am seeking the following confirmations,
directions, and commitments from your office:
1- That the above items constitute your Department's understandings
of the situation.
"
"
r .. .
Mr. George Webb, P.E.
Proposed Lake Ida Road Design - Swinton Avenue to Congress
Avenue - Median Cross-section
Page 3
2. That since the original dedication on the Isles of Delray plat
was to the City of Delray Beach, that the City Commission can
consummate the desired abandonment.
3. That the redesign costs to accommodate the landscape median would
be assessed to the City. Please provide an estimate of those
costs.
4. What time frame is required, of us, with respect to delivering
deeds for additional right-of-way and funds for redesign, in
order to retain project funding in FY 92/931 '
5. Since the accommodation of the landscape medians (curbing) and
concrete medians will occur in what was to have been a paved
fifth lane, it appears that there should not be any costs to the
City for such construction. Please confirm.
6. The westbound right turn, across from Roosevelt, does not
represent a significant cost and thus, it also, would be
accommodated without any additional cost to the City. Please
confirm.
I believe that the above brings together all of the facets associated
with this project. Your prompt attention to this request is desired

MEMORANDUM
Date: August 12, 1992 /

To: City Commission ¡/¡/
1//
From: Jeffrey S. Kurtz, City Attorney
Subject: Fillinq the Unexpired Term of Co~issioner Andrews
It is my understanding that Commissioner Andrews has resigned
effective November 1, 1992 leaving the Commission with the
responsibility to fill the remainder of his term, which expires
the last Thursday of March, 1993.
The process for filling a Commission vacancy is set forth in
Section 3.06(c) of the City Charter (copy attached).
The remttining members of the City Commission are to select a
person tò-fill the vacancy within two regular meetings of the
vacancy taking place. In this' case, that would be by November
24, 1992. In the event the Commission did not agree on a
selection by the close of the meeting on November 24, a special
election would have to be called and held wi thin 60 days to
fill the vacancy.
Therefore, it would be my suggestion that the appointment of a
successor be agendaed for November 10, or if the Commission
desires, a special meeting prior to that date. While not
explicitly, within the language of the Charter, I think it is
implicit that the selection not be made until after November 1.
My rationale for that opinion is that there is no vacancy prior
to that date, and the Charter does explicitly contemplate that
the remaining members of the Commission make the decision.
However, if the Commission desired, it would be appropriate to
have a workshop or regular meetif'g prior to the vacancy
occurring at which time potential candidates for the vacancy
would be interviewed by the Commission.
Should the Commission desire, it may advertise the opening and
ask for solicitations of interest to fill the position within a
specified time frame. I wish to reiterate, however, that
nothing other than the time for making the decision, that being
t.

between November 1st and the 24th, and that the remaining ~
