MEMORANDUM
Date: February 27, 1990
To: City Commisê,ion
From: Herbert W. A. Thip-le, City Attorney
Subject: Submission of Resignation as City Attorne~r
It is with a great deal of sadness that I am hereby submitting to you my
resignation as City Attorney for the City of Delray Beach, to be effective at
5:00 p.m. on April 27, 1990.
As you are aware, the Board of County Commissioners of IJeon County,
Florida has offered me and I have accepted the position of County Attorney
for Leon County (with the ability to institute their new in-house County
Attorney's---s.ffice), effective April 30, 1990. Not only does this present to me
a professional opportunity, but it would also allow me to meet a lon~er-term
goal of my family to relocate to the northern part of Florida.
My decision to accept the position has certainly not been made lig-htly, and
comes only after many hours of serious thought and discussions with my
family and friends concerning this opportunity. While I look forward in g-reat
anticipation to the challenges of the new position, r am saddened by the
number of opportunities and close friends who I will leave behind here in
Delray Beach.
Despite rumors and articles to the contrary, it is not now nor has it ever
been any form of political pressure or the circumstances of City politics or
elections that ca.used me to make the decision to accept the position. Rather,
the multi-faceted political atmosphere in Delray Beach has always represented
a legal and personal challenge to me which, hopefully, I have been ahlp- to
accept and meet in the past nine years.
You should also be aware that the Leon County Board of County ComMis-
sioners, and each of the Commissioners therein, are obviously dedicated and,
collectively, one of the best County Commissions that I have p-ver had the
plea,sure to meet. However, on the municipal level, there has never been an
occasion in which I have been sorry to have worked for the individual City
Council/City Commission members who have made up the City CoundJ/City
Commission of the City of Delray Beach over the last nine years and who
Memo to City Commission
February 27, 1990
Page 2
have shown genuine interest in the best for the City. In their own way,
each of the past City Commissioners with whom I have worked has brought me
both legal challenges, as well as personal satisfaction, and I have no doubt
that this trend will continue in the years ahead for my successor.
While there are certainly very many more projects still to be completed, it is
with some degree of satisfaction that we have reached this pinnacle which
allows me the opportunity to leave for the new position. What with the new
comprehensive plan now being in place, the establishment at many new
procedures and administrative boards seeking to meet your objectives, the
smooth-running self-insurance program, the implementation of many new
procedures and cost-saving devices in the City Attorney's Office, 8.S well as
the successful completion of many important and potentially costly litigation
matters, 8.11 provide me with some degree of satisfaction that my years here
have resulted in 8 benefit to the City and its taxpayers.
Additionally, with regard to the City Man8,ger's Office, it should be said that
although the circumstances of the changes in that office (there being at least
11 permanent and interim City Managers since I have taken the City Attorney
position) have resulted in some instability within the City government, it has
presented me with an opportunity to work closely with many of the top
administrative/managerial employees of the City during those difficult times.
Each of t~ persons have served the City well during these times and it
has only been with their, and the current department heads', help that we
have been able to fulfill the goals and objectives set by the City Commission.
With regard to filling the vacancy which will be created, it has always been
my position, and I recommend to you, that the City Commission look to within
the City Attorney's Office for promotion to the position rather than the costly
and sometimes inefficient process of looking throughout the nation for a new
City Attorney.
Finally, to each of the current City Commissioners, let me extend to you my
warmest personal thanks and appreci8,tion for aU of your support and
cooperation over these past years. It is because of your support of our
office and me personally that this decision has been so difficult to make.
Once again, thank you for letting me have the opportunity to serve you, the
City, and the taxpayers of the City as an Assistant City A ttorney from 1979
to 1981 and as your City Attorney since 1981, and I wish each and everyone
of you much success in our upcoming "Decade of Excellence" . The
Memo to City Commission

TO: MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSIONERS
FROM: CITY MANAGER
SUBJECT: AGENDA REPORT - MEETING OF FEBRUARY 27, 1990
DATE: February 23, 1990
PUBLIC HEARINGS
Item No. 8 (Ordinance No. 3-90) This is a Second Reading of an
Ordinance amending the Code of Ordinances by enacting a new subchapter
"Sidewalk Cafes" which provides the criteria for application,
permitting procedures and fees for sidewalk cafes in the Central
Business District ( CBD) . The application fee for a sidewalk cafe
permit will be $50 with an annual charge thereafter of $50 per
renewal. Provisions of the application require a valid occupational
license¡ site plan of the area between the store front and vehicular
traffic surfaces¡ proof of insurance¡ and execution of a Hold Harmless
Agreement in a form acceptable to the City Attorney.
Other provisions provide for denial, revocation, or suspension of
permit for loss of business or health permit¡ insufficient insurance
coverage¡ changing conditions relating to pedestrian or vehicular
movement¡ and failure to correct violations.
This ordinance has been amended to reflect action taken at your joint
workshop meeting of February 20th with the Downtown Development
Authority.
Recommend approval of Ordinance No. 3-90.
Item No. 9 (Ordinance No. 4-90) This is a Second Reading of an
Ordinance prohibiting the consumption of alcoholic beverages in public
places.
One of the provisions contained in Ordinance No. 3-90 provides for the
consumption of alcoholic beverages at permitted sidewalk cafes. This
activity is currently prohibited by Code. This Ordinance provides for
exceptions to that policy. In addition, the revised ordinance will
also eliminate the threat of arrest from golfers at the municipal golf
course and allows a mechanism by which the City Manager could waive
the application of the ordinance for special events, such as Old
School Square grand, opening, Delray Affair, and the like.
Recommend approval of Ordinance 4-90.
Item No. 10 (Ordinance No. 5-90) This is a Second Reading of an
Ordinance correcting the Zoning Map to show appropriate zoning of GC
(General Commercial) District instead of RM-10 (Multiple Family
Dwelling) District, for property commonly known as the 8th Street
Market located at the northeast corner of N.E. 8th Avenue and N.E.
8th Street. This property was zoned as C-2 upon annexation in 1971.
Since that time, the zoning map has shown three different designations
(RM-15, GC, and RM-10) and one map showed no designation even though
there have been no site specific rezonings of the property. The
Future Land Use Map designates the property as Commercial¡ thus, the
original zoning of Commercial is still appropriate. In similar
circumstances, when it was apparent an error had been made of the
official zoning map, a corrective ordinance was prepared.
Recommend approval of Ordinance No. 5-90.
Item No. 11 (Ordinance No. 6-90) This is a Second Reading of an
Ordinance which expands the scope of equity investments that the
Police and Firefighters Pension Board can make. Based upon a request
AGENDA REPORT .
Meeting of 2/27/90
made by the Police and Firefighter Pension Board of Trustees, the City
Attorney's Office, performed research regarding the modification of
the ordinance governing the financing and fund management of the
Police and Fire Pension Fund. It was the Trustees belief that returns
on our investments could be enhanced by modification or elimination of
certain restrictions on the pension fund investments contained in our
ordinances.
The City Attorney's Office has determined that the most restrictive
provision found in our Code of Ordinances is Section 33.66, subsection
33.66(E)(2), which provides restrictions on pension fund investment in
corporate stocks and bonds. Those restrictions in our Code of
Ordinances are:
1. Corporations listed on any one or more of the recognized
national stock exchanges, and holding a rating in one of the
three highest classifications.
2 . Corporations which have paid cash dividends for a period of
seven fiscal years preceding the date of acquisition.
3. Those corporation which have after-tax earnings in an average
amount equal to at least two times the amount of yearly interest
charges on their bonds, and an amount at least equal to two times
the amount of interest charges in each of three fiscal years
immediately preceding purchase¡ where those corporations which
over the seven fiscal years immediately preceding purchase have
after-tax earnings in an average amount equal to at least six
percent of the par value of their bonds in each of the three
fiscal years immediately preceding purchase.
4 . Those corporations which are not in default or which have not
been in default within the immediately preceding five year
period.
S. The Pension Board is prohibited from investing more than five
percent of Pension Fund assets in the stock of anyone issuing
company, or from acquiring more than three percent of the
outstanding stock of anyone company.
6. The Pension Board is prohibited for investing more than fifty
percent of fund assets and stocks.
Language similar to that in Item 1 above exists in State Statutes,
however, there are no provision established in the statutes for Items
2, 3, 4. With reference to Item 5 J the Statutes establish an
investment limit of five percent of outstanding stock. Likewise on
Item 6, an investment limit of 30% on stock (equity) investments
exists.
The Statute specifically states that municipalities with "local law"
pension plans may modify investment procedures contained in the
statutes through a municipal ordinance. While Section 33.66 could be
repealed in its entirety, it is recommended that it be amended to
modify or delete only those investment provisions which are more
restrictive than those in Florida Statutes. A detailed staff report
is attached as background material for this item.
Re~ommend approval of Ordinance No. 6-90.
REGULAR AGENDA
Item No. 13 Landscape Plan for North Federal Highway. In December
1989, the Commission was apprised that the FDOT would not permit
installation of landscaping designed by H. Kurt Kettlehut and
Associates without the reconstruction of all of the median curbing.
- 2 -
.
AGENDA REPORT
Meeting of 2/27/90
.
The cost for constructing nonmountable curbing was estimated at
$160,000. By consensus, the Commission directed staff to redesign the
landscape plan with "non impacting" plant materials which would be
acceptable to FDOT without changing existing curbing.
The basic restriction imposed by FDOT was that the plant material
should not have a trunk diameter greater than four inches at maturity
unless a 10 foot offset from the face of the curb and visibility
between a height of 30 inches and 6 feet could be maintained.
This project includes the medians between N.E. 8th Street and
Gulfstream Boulevard, along with the utility strips located along the
sides of the road. The medians will be irrigated, the sides of the
road will not. This plan includes the following:
A. The median just north of Plasteridge Insurance will be
developed with Royal Palms and substantial shade trees. The
existing seagrape will be saved, the Sabal Palm will be
relocated, and shrub massing will be used to create focal points
within the median.
B. Median Two has three existing Black Olives which DOT has
"grandfathered in". This median will therefore be atypical.
C. Medians 3 through 13 currently have Paurotis Palms, Silver
Buttonwood, Cattley Guavas, Indian Hawthorne and Liriope. The
Buttonwood will be replaced with Myrsine; the Cattley Guavas
with Silver Buttonwood; the Liriope with Yellow Lantana; and
the Indian Hawthorne with Ilex vomitoria.
D. The original plan did not include any sod. The medians will
have a minimum of five feet of sod along the length and 100 feet
from the ends of the medians.
E. The utility strips along the side of the road will have
existing weeds removed and have drought tolerant Bahia planted
flush with the curb. Carrotwood Trees will be planted
approximately every 60 feet. Carrotwoods are very drought
tolerant, do well in poor soil conditions, and mature to an
average of 25 feet.
The estimated cost for completion of this project is $140,000.
Funding is available in 1987 Utility Tax Federal Highway- Linton to
North End (Account No. 333-4141-572-61.27).
Recommend consideration of proposed landscape plan for North Federal
Item No. 14 Change Order No. 1 Linton/ I-95 Landscaping. This
Change Order increases the contract amount by $11,219.50 to replace
Black Olive trees which died in the freeze and for additional sod
covering. Those items which required replacement due to freeze damage
were five 12 foot Black Olive Trees ($675) and five bags of mulch
($11.25).
Other additions to the contract were necessary because the consultant
who originally prepared the design did not include enough sod to
create a finished appearance on the project. He also failed to
include the utility strips into the plan. Those additions include
68,000 square feet of Bahia sod for the interchange cloverleaf
($13,600); 10,975 square foot grading and excavation in utility
strips ($1,646.25); additional grading at interchange areas ($1,500);
4,500 square fe~t St. Augustine Sod in medians at interchange ($900);
and 4,500 square feet grading medians at interchanges ($675) .
Reductions in the contract include deletion of 28,440 square feet of
St. Augustine sod for interchanges (-$5,688) and reduction in the

price of Black Olive Trees (-$2,100). Funding is available in 1987
Utility Tax Beautification Surplus Fund (Account No.
119-0000-301-19.00).
Recommend approval of Chanqe Order No. 1 in the amount of $11,219.50
with funding from the 1987 Utility Tax Beautification Surplus Fund
(Account No. 119-000-301-19.00).
Item No. 15 Change Order No. 2- West Atlantic Avenue/I-95
Interchange. This Change Order increases the contract amount by
$16,925 and includes the cost for the replacement and change out of
freeze damaged plant materials. Replacement materials include: 18
Nerium Oleander Standards ($1,620)¡ 33 Black Olive Trees ($4,290)¡
1,105 Myrsine guianensis ($8,840)¡ five Pink Tabebuia ($675); and
two Jacaranda Trees ($300).
Recommend approval of Chanqe Order No. 2 in the amount of $16,925 with
funding from 1987 Utility Tax Federal Hiqhway Linton to North End
(Account No. 333-4141-572-61.27).
Item No. 16 Renewal of the City's Group Health Plan. The City's
Group Health Plan is due for renewal on March 1st. The Plan is
primarily one of self-insurance in which the City pays for its own
claims up to $60,000 per individual. In order to increase the cost
efficiency of the program it is recommended that we increase the self
insured maximum from $60,000 to $75,000. Under this plan we pay for
three categories of charges:
A. Administrative Fee- claims handling, recording, commission,
etc. which will be increased from $9.92 to $12.48.
B. Pooling Fee- the insured specific loss portion over the self
insured maximum per claim which will be increased remain constant
at $7.96 because of the increase in the self insurance retention.
C. Utilization Review/PPO Fee- a cost control service through
review, certification, claims management and provider fee
negotiation which will also remain the same at $2.45.
The costs reflected above are per unit which is the equivalent of
every employee, retiree, and former employees covered under C.O.B.R.A.
The claims portion of the insurance will also undergo some changes.
Those changes include:
A. Co-insurance- claims are currently paid at 90% for P.P.O.
providers, this will be reduced to 80%. This will result in a
projected savings of 4.6%.
B. Out-patient surgery and pre-admission testing- claims are
currently paid at 100%. An additional $200 deductible and
appropriate co-insurance 80% P.P.O/70% non P.P.O. would be
applied. This will result in a projected savings of 2.4%.
C. Hospital confinement- An additional $200 deductible for non-
P.P.O. confinements would be instituted. This will result in a
projected savings of 1.9%.
D. Maximum out-of-pocket expense- these costs will be increased
from $1,000 (plus deductible) to $2,000 (plus deductible) for
P.P.O providers, and from $2,000 (plus $200 deductible) to $3,000
(plus deductible) for non P.P.O. Providers.
Additionally, in order to sustain the claims projected for the future
policy period a rate increase is necessary. The rates will increase

from $74.60 per each employee to $181.20 and from $130 for a dependent
unit to $171. 40 . '~
Recommend approval of renewal of City's Group Health Plan.
Item No. 17 Extension of Contract. David and Shelia Turner are
requesting an extension until March 30, 1990 for closing on the Adult
Bookstore property. The Turner's are experiencing some difficulty
obtaining financing, however, are continuing to actively pursue
funding for the purchase of this property.
Recommend approval of extension until March 30, 1990 for closing on
the Adult Bookstore property for David and Shelia Turner.
Item No. 18 Selection of Bond Counsel for Public Utilities Revenue
Bond Issue. At your January 30th meeting, the Commission, by
consensus, directed staff to contact those firms who expressed an
interest in serving as bond counsel. The City Attorney's office .
issued letters on February 2nd to various firms throughout the South .
Florida area. We received proposals from:
Feaman, Adams, Harris, Fernandez and Deutch
Greenburg, Traurig, Hoffman, Lipoff, Rosen and Quentel
Holland and Knight/Gunster, Yoakley and Stewart
Moyle, Flanigan, Katz, Fitzgerald and Sheehan
Mudge, Rose, Guthrie, Alexander and Ferdon
Hodgson, Russ, Andrews, Woods and Goodyear
Livermore, Klein and Lott
As the Commission had not previously provided any criteria upon which
to analyze the proposals, the City Attorney's office is unable to
provide a recommendation. However, Moyle, Flanigan, Katz, Fitzgerald
and Sheehan is the firm that is currently representing some of the
defendants in the Aero Dri litigation, therefore, caution is
recommended.
Copies of the proposals are available for review in the City Manager's
office.
Recommend consideration of selectinq bond counsel for the Public
Utilities Revenue Bond Issue from proposals received.
Item No. 19 Request for Waiver of Section 173.001 "Definition of
Family" of the Code of Ordinances. Ordinance 91-88 describes the
definition of family as, "one or more persons lineally related by
blood, marriage, or adoption and/or a family which includes one other
person who is related in some other manner by blood or marriage,
... .". That Ordinance also provides the mechanism by which those in
violation of this definition may request a waiver on the basis of
undue hardship from the City Commission.
The Ordinance does not establish standards or criteria for what
constitutes a hardship and staff has no basis for recommendation on
these requests. The Commission should consider each case individually
and make a determination based upon the facts and merits presented
recognizing that the intent of the definition of family ordinance was
to prevent overcrowding of individual residential units.
Case 1: The current occupancy is in violation by one person, who
is reported to be the property owner's sister. She is residing
in the house because both parents are out of the area. She is a
student at Atlantic High School.
Case 2: The current occupancy is in violation by three persons,
two are reported to be the property owner's brothers and the
third is an unrelated adult female. The owner has indicated that

the above parties are temporarily residing with him due to
financial hardships.
Recommend Commission consideration of two requests to waiver Section
173.001 "Definition of Family",
Item No. 20 Request from Community Redevelopment Agency to Hire
Planner. The CRA is requesting that the City consider hiring a
planner to revise the current Community Redevelopment Plan (CRP). In
exchange the CRA will pay for salary and compensation costs.
Staff has reviewed this request and made the following determination:
A. If the City were to hire a planner as proposed by the CRA the
person hired would be subject to all City personnel policies and
procedures. These include hiring, firing and disciplinary
procedures including Civil Service Rules. Accordingly we would
also be required to provide all fringe benefits given to other
employees to incl\..i.de health, life, disability, retirement,
workers compensation benefits, all vacation, sick leave, pay
raises and performance increases. The City would also be
financially responsible for any awards of unemployment
compensation which might arise from this employment arrangement.
B. As proposed, the employee would be under the policy direction
of the CRA, thus we would have all the responsibilities without
authority over the work element. These responsibilities would
also include any liability issues that might arise from the
employee's actions.
I would think that the 5% to 10% benefit that might be derived by the
City could be better put to use by the CRA in the planning process for
redevelopment projects.
Recommend that the CRA hire the planner directly to revise the
Community Redevelopment Plan with the CRA paying for salary and
compensation costs.
Item No. 21 Naming of Mini Park. At your February 13th meeting the
Commission, approved the placement of historic markers, accepted an
easement for maintenance and agreed in concept to the development of a
mini park to be located on the Mount Olive Missionary Baptist Church
property located at the corner of N.W. 5th Avenue and N.W. 1st
Street. This item is before you for the naming of that mini park as
requested by representatives of the Community Churches of Delray Beach
United. That organization is recommending the park be named "B.F.
James and Francis J. Bright Park" in honor of the first two teachers
at School No. 4, Delray Colored.
Commission should consider that no formal policy exists regarding the
naming of facilities. In this case, the facility is not an official
City Park, rather the site of a historic marker. Having the concept
of the site being a "mini-park" by naming is a "park" may be
misleading. An alternate name for the site, "The Five Sites Historic
Marker" dedicated to B.F. James and Francis J. Bright, has also been
recommended.
Recommend consideration of naming the mini park at the corner of N.W.
5th Avenue and N.W. 1st Street.
Item No. 22 Denial of Settlement Offer. Mr. McCracken has filed
litigation against the City resulting from dog bites he received as
part of a Police investigation into a complaint of a prowler. He has
submitted a settlement offer in the amount of $15,000. The City
Attorney's office and our outside counsel recommend denial of

1990 LEGISLATIVE AGENDA
1. STATE FUNDING (Budget Requests)
1. BEACH RENOURISHMENT (Maintenance)
AMOUNT: $2,007,236
FROM: Department of Natural Resources
Beach Renourishment Projects
We are presently in our sixteenth year of beach
renourishment and must continue the maintenance
program in order to save the public beach. , ~
During this past year, the Governor and Cabinet
created a special "Beach Task Force," with Mayor '.
Doak Campbell as one of it's members. This Task
Force was formed to find a dedicated funding
source which would be used solely for Florida's
beach projects. The Task force recommended an
increase in the Documentary Stamp Tax which
would raise approximately $70 million - $35 million
for beach acquisition and $35 million for beach
renourishment. Although this concept is good, it
is not expected to be approved during this
Legislative Session.
Funding breakdown for the present beach project:
Federal share: $3,442,734
State share: $2,007,236
Local share; $ 901,599
TOTAL.......$6,351,569
Total 1990 State Beach Request..........$2,007,236

portation improvements.
c. Support the reform of the occupational
license tax to better serve the individual
local authority.
d. Support the Local Option Interim Proprietary
and General Services Fee Act,(HB 261 by Rep. Arnold).
This Act authorizes local governments to levy
a fee applicable to property improvements from
the time a Certificate of Occupancy is issued
until October 1 when the property is subject
to Ad Valorum taxation. This fee is to defray
the cost of providing services to the property
during that period.
3. Criminal Justice
a. Support and monitor HB 293 by Rep. Kelly, which
would include Code Enforcement Officers as re-
lating to criminal penalties. It provides for

storm drainage, paving streets, alleys and gutters,
installing lights, street signs and directional
signs, beautifying pedestrian malls, walkways,
or other public areas, e tc. . .
III. Support, in concept, the 1990 Legislative platform
of the Florida League of Cities.

. .
MUNICIPAL PINANCB , TAXATION
Priority
The Florida League of cities will support legislation granting
. cities additional revenue flexibility to meet the needs determined
by responsible growth management and to fund other local
obligations. Effective growth management planning requires cities
and counties to set levels of service and determine infrastructure
needs and requires the state to end unfunded mandates.
Plexible Pinanoing
200 Florida shares less dollars with its cities than any of
the other 10 largest states. Every tax source available
to a municipality in Florida is either capped or frozen
by the state constitution or the Legislature. Growth is
causing tremendous funding needs. Cities must have some
flexibility in the types of taxes they are able to levy
and the amount of money generated from those taxes.
Without the ability to expand boundaries and to finance
badly needed services in a fair way, it is difficult for
cities to properly plan for the future.
The Florida League of Cities will: ¡
200.1 Support the repeal of section 166.231 (1) (b) of the
Florida Statutes which exempts the "fuel adjustment
charge" from the Public Service Tax.
200.2 Support legislation that allows a municipality to receive
revenues via "partial year assessments" or "interim
service fees" on new construction upon issuance of a
certificate of occupancy.
~200.3 Support a one-cent local option sales tax if approved by
a majority vote of the county commission without the
necessity of a referendum.
200.4 Support increased authority for local option gas taxes
so that local governments can further address current and
future municipal transportation needs.
200.5 Support legislation which recognizes non-resident
population in both existing revenue sharing formulas as
well as new local option revenues identified to address
non-resident population service requirements.
200.6 Support the reform of the occupational license taxing
authority to allow local discretion to address equity
considerations and to provide increased revenues.

200.7 Support legislation to expand the tax base of the public
service tax to include cable television services and
wastewater services.
200.8 support reform of the State Municipal Revenue Sharing
Program to increase the bondable "guaranteed
entitlement", replace the cigarette tax with a revenue
that will keep pace with inflation, and eliminate Dade
County's automatic 7 percent increase.
200.9 support legislation requiring a fair share of the state
Infrastructure Trust Fund to be allocated to
municipalities.
200.10 support legislation that would allow cities to establish
special Service Benefit Units so that specific needs can
be met without having to use general fund revenues.
200.11 Support legislation to create an affordable housing trust
fund to be funded from interest earned on mortgage escrow
accounts.
Tax Equity í
201 Tax equity between the various levels of government is
an essential factor for establishing clear delineations
of responsibility between each government and its
citizens.
The Florida League of cities will:
201.1 Support review of the Truth in Millage (TRIM) process in
order to simplify it and make it more accurate. Allow for
property indexing for inflation and population growth
~ without the mandate to advertise it as a tax increase.
~~ ' 1 i . . l't' f
2'01,.2 Support leg1.s at on that exempts mun1.c1.pa 1. 1.es rom
paying the sales tax on contracted public works
construction materials.
201.3 Support legislation that will eliminate the double
taxation of municipal citizens from the taxation for
services rendered by the county from which the residents
of a municipality derive no direct benefit.
201.4 Support legislation that requires an allocation of
county-wide collected capital revenue, for transportation
purposes, that insures that the concurrency issues,
related to roads, for which the county is responsible,
within the cities are reasonably addressed.

201. 5 Support legislation requiring that the cost of state
service fees on municipal trust funds not exceed the
actual cost of collection and administration of those
funds.
201.6 Support legislation to eliminate the exemption of school
buildings from uniformly imposed impact fees for
infrastructure.
201.7 Support legislation to develop a constitutional amendment
to correct inequities caused by existing homestead
exemptions in the calculation of ad valorem taxes
relative to general obligation bond issues passed by
local government voters.
Transportation
202 The state has a responsibility to provide fundable state
transportation solutions which complement local
government efforts and integrates local and regional
growth management plans.
The Florida League of Cities will: í
\2-02, 1
Support increased authority for local option gas taxes
so that local governments can further address current and
, , future municipal transportation needs.
,
\202.2 Support legislation providing for a change in the
Department of Transportation's 20/80 matching grant
program to a funding formula more favorable to
municipalities.
202.3 support legislation to provide that the cost of
relocation of pUblicly-owned utilities shall be paid by
the appropriate constructing agency.
202.4 support legislation providing for shared funding of
traffic signalization and signage by participating
governmental jurisdictions.
Environmental Fundinq
203 For many years the state has been mandating new and more
strinqent environmental requirements on municipalities
in order to meet statewide objectives. The state should
either appropriate funds or provide municipalities with
a source of funding to pay for those objectives.
The Florida League of Cities will:

URBAN ADKINISTRÀTION COKMITTEB
PRIORITY
Support legislation that commits state resources toward ådeRUately
funding the construction of jail/prison facilities, toward
increased criminal and noncriminal penalties for those who use,
manufacture and sell drugs, and toward adequate drug preventative
and treatment programs.
ANNEXATION
300 Substantial population growth and urban sprawl have
occurred in recent years in areas adjacent to
municipalities. This has often created undesirable
situations: substandard commercial, residential and
utility development;contamination of soil, water and air;
and, in general, inadequate regulations and facilities
to protect and serve citizens in high density areas.
The League recognizes that reasonable annexation laws i
would often address these problems in a positive fashion. i
Expeditious annexation procedures, urban service areas
and the elimination of enclaves are but a few of the í
tools that would effectively control urban sprawl and the
undesirable impact haphazard growth has had on Florida's
resources.
The Florida League of Cities will:
300.1 Support legislation that provides reasonable procedures
to allow cities to eliminate enclaves and to
expeditiously annex highly developed areas adjacent to
their boundaries.
"'~300.2 Support legislation authorizing cities to optionally
waive "in-city elections" for annexations by referendum.
300.3 support legislation that utilizes urban service areas to
effectively manage orderly growth.
300.4 Support legislation that ensures municipalities are
authorized to tie annexation to the provision of
municipal utility services.
300.5 Support legislation requiring counties to observe
municipal land use plans when granting development
approvals for property located within unincorporated
enclaves.

300.6 Support legislation which allows municipalities to have
extraterritorial planning authority in areas which may
reasonably be expected to annex into the municipality in
. the foreseeable future.
300.7 Support legislation permitting municipalities to amend
their comprehensive plans and rezone property
simultaneously with the voluntary annexation of the
property.
HOKE ROLE
301 The Florida League of cities believes that the essence
of the concept of home rule is simple: the citizens of
a community have the constitutional right to manage their
own affairs at the grass-roots level with minimum
interference from the state, counties and other
governmental agencies. Home rule assumes that local
problems should be settled by locally elected officials,
that the state should concentrate on the pressing affairs
of state and that the unwarranted intrusion by state
officials into the affairs of local government should be
curtailed. As local conditions are often unique, í
rapidly-changing municipalities need the flexibility to
make organizational arrangements appropriate for local
conditions. Municipalities provide key governmental
services affecting the daily- lives of their citizens:
fire and police protection; traffic control; street
maintenance; zoning and land use; provision of water,
garbage and sewer services. Municipalities therefore
need to retain all options that will allow them to
perform these functions in the most economical and
efficient manner possible. Home rule leaves each
community free to exercise its responsibilities in a
manner best suited to the needs and conveniences of its
citizens. With full responsibility resting upon the
citizens, they have an opportunity to become better
educated in the principles and methods of municipal
government, and to develop common interests in community
affairs. Unhampered local control likewise permits
prompt action in dealing with fresh municipal problems
as they arise.
The Florida League of cities will:
" 301.1 Oppose legislation that intrudes on the ability of
municipalities to manage local affairs in accordance with
the wishes of their citizens.
-~~~01.2 support legislation that requires all governmental
agencies t~ comply with locally adopted codes.

301.3 Oppose any legislation mandating the statewide
certification of municipal employees.
301.4 Support the repeal of statutes and oppose legislation
that provides exemptions from local comprehensive plans
or that preempt local zoning and land use powers.
301.5 Support legislation that reestablishes local government's
home rule authority over the procurement of professional
services.
ï
'~ ~01.6 Support legislation that exempts municipal recreational
) facilities, activities and programs from state child care
licensing requirements.
301.7 Support legislation that ensures that all costs incurred
by local governments in administering state laws
governing lost or abandoned property can be offset by
the proceeds derived from the sale of such property or
that authorizes local governments to retain the proceeds
derived from the sale of such property.
301.8 Oppose legislation that limits municipal franchise fees i
or otherwise restricts a municipality's authority to
franchise utilities and other service providers operating
within its boundaries.
301. 9 Support the repeal of statutes and oppose legislation
that intrudes on the home rule authority of
municipalities to manage and fund enterprise activities
and services provided by municipalities.
301.10 Support the repeal of statutes and oppose legislation
that restricts the use of proceeds derived from the sale
of governmentally owned properties.
TORT LIABILITY
302 The Florida League of cities recognizes that, in the
areas of tort liability, certain governmental conduct
must remain immune from scrutiny by judge or jury because
to do so otherwise would significantly impair
government I s ability to govern. The threat of tort
liability can have a substantial impact on local
government's ability to provide for the general health,
safety and welfare of its citizens. Also, expenditures
of pUblic funds to satisfy tort judgments are a
taxpayer's expense. Governments provide certain unique
services to the general public and these services require
that traditional standards and notions of tort liability
should not necessarily apply to local governments.
The Florida League of Cities will:
7
~
,
I .
~
.. f
í
,
'-
302.1 support legislation that limits the exposure of local
governments to tort liability.
302.2 support legislation abolishing the doctrine of joint
and several liability. .
CRIMINAL JUSTICE AND JUDICIAL ADMINISTRATION
303 The Florida League of Cities recognizes the degree of
crime in a community has a direct impact on the quality
of life of its citizens and a community's well being is
dependent in part on the efficient and effective
administration of judicial affairs. The League believes
the paramount criminal justice problems presently
crippling Florida's communities are jail/prison
overcrowdedness and increased drug related activities.
The League further recognizes that an ,adequate state
criminal justice program balances retribution with
rehabilitation and education, and that this balance is
essential to an orderly and functional society. The t
League therefore believes the state should commit its
resources toward adequately funding the construction of ,
additional local jail and state correctional facilities,
toward increased criminal and noncriminal penalties for I t
those who use, manufacture and sell drugs, and toward "
adequate drug preventative, rehabilitative, treatment,
and testing programs. ~
The Florida League of Cities will:
303.1 Support legislation that provides adequate funding for
local jail and state correctional facilities.
303.2 support legislative programs designed to provide a more
expedited judicial process, including adequate funding
to hire more prosecutors, judges and public offenders so
that persons accused of crimes can be quickly brought to
trial and jail overcrowding alleviated.
303.3 Oppose legislation that eliminates the discretion of the
judiciary to incarcerate persons convicted of criminal
offenses unless such persons can be sentenced to
residential rehabilitative facilities where their
rehabilitation can be adequately monitored and
supervised.
303.4 Support legislation that places greater penalties on
those who use, manufacture and sell drugs, including
legislation that:

* Would decrease the amount of marijuana that would
subject a person convicted of trafficking in marijuana
to minimum mandatory sentences.
* Would provide for stricter criminal penzÜ ties for
persons convicted of using, selling, manufacturing or
trafficking drugs in the presence of minors.
* Would permit professional boards to discipline
licensees convicted of trafficking in or conspiring to
traffic in controlled substances.
* Would suspend state aid or benefits to persons
convicted of trafficking in or conspiring to traffic in
controlled substances unless the person participates in
an approved drug treatment and rehabilitation program.
* Would require drug testing and treatment as a
precondition for early release of persons sentenced for
drug related offenses.
* Would make it a separate criminal offense to use income
or profits derived from a violation of state drug laws ¡
to invest in, acquire, establish or operate lawful
business enterprises.
* Would establish a minimum mandatory sentence for
persons convicted of possessing a firearm while
trafficking in controlled substances.
* Would make it a separate criminal offense to conspire
to or use, promote, or encourage the use of foreign
nationals or illegal aliens in the commission of criminal
activities, particularly drug related activities.
303.5 Support legislative programs designed to educate the
public about drugs (such as "Just Say No") and to
otherwise prevent drug use, particularly among minors.
303.6 Support legislative programs designed to treat prisoners
with chemical dependencies, including legislation
directing the Department of Corrections to establ ish
special drug-treatment prisons designed to provide
substance abuse testing, counseling, and treatment
services for persons convicted and incarcerated for drug
use.
303.7 Support legislation that encourages rehabilitative
programs designed to provide for an orderly transition
of released criminal offenders into society, including
legislation directing the Department of Corrections to
develop and implement residential programs designed to
provide basic education classes and testing, social

for non-violent 1st time criminals incarcerated in the
state correctional system.
303.8 support legislative programs designed to provide s,tricter
penalties for habitual and repeat criminal offenders.
303.9 Support legislation that provides flexibility to local
governments in the enforcement of codes and ordinances
and that adds certainty to and streamlines local code
enforcement processes.
303.10 Support legislation that protects municipal revenues
received from violations of city ordinances and the
Uniform Traffic Control Law.
303.11 support the repeal of Florida's criminal Ceposi tion Rule.
303.12 support legislation that increases the efficiency and
funding of the Safe Neighborhoods Act.
MUNICIPAL BUILDING DEPARTMENTS
i
304 cities are not part of the building construction
industry; rather, they are instruments of the citizens'
police and regulatory powers. While the state requires
that each local government adopt and enforce a building
code, municipal governments should nonetheless continue
to have the flexibility to decide which code to adopt,
and the home rule authority to determine the mechanisms
used to enforce the code. The League encourages the
voluntary certification of building inspection personnel
and, in fact, many cities now participate in voluntary
certification programs to accomplish this goal. However,
decisions relating to the administration and operation
of municipal building departments properly belong to the
cities' citizens through their city charter provisions
and their city council.
The Florida League of Cities will:
304.1 Oppose any legislation that removes or restricts the
ability of municipal governments to manage, operate and
finance their building departments.
304.2 support the repeal of statutes restricting the amount
and use of building permit fees.
304.3 Oppose legislation that would require a statewide uniform
building code, that would authorize statewide binding
interpretations of building codes, or that would prohibit
or otherwise restrict local amendments to building codes.

304.4 Oppose legislation that restricts a municipality's
authority to register building contractors doing business
within the municipality.
. FIRE SAFETY'AND PREVENTION
305 Since the possibility of destruction of life and property
by fire is a matter of concern wherever people live, fire
is one of the foremost threats facing local governments.
At one time or another, it has caused great devastation
throughout Florida. The Florida League of Cities
recognizes that local government has been, and will
continue to be, the primary force in combating this
danger.
The Florida League of Cities will:
305.1 Support legislation that ensures that the adoption and
enforcement of fire safety standards are maintained at
the local level.
305.2 Support legislation that reenacts Florida' s fire and life
safety requirements for public lodging establishments in
their entirety. í
305.3 Oppose legislation that places a greater financial burden
on local government to, fund the operation of the state
Fire College.
305.4 support legislation that establishes flammability and
toxicity resistant standards for upholstered furniture.
EMINENT DOMAIN
306 Local governments often find it necessary to use their
power of eminent domain to acquire land for such public
purposes as roads, public buildings and facilities,
downtown redevelopment, and the preservation of natural
resources. However, local government's exercise of this
power is often frustrated by the prohibitive costs
associated with eminent domain actions.
The Florida League of cities will:
'" -
\306.1 support legislation that places reasonable restrictions
on the award of attorneys' fees and court costs.
306.2 Oppose legislation that would expand the concept of

INSTITUTE OF GOVERNMENT
307 The Florida League of cities recognizes that continuing
local government education for local officials will
enable them to improve their knowledge and skills and to
better serve the citizens of their community. The League
will support continued and increased funding for the
Institute of Government's training and research programs.
COMMUNITY AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT
308 Substantial outgrowth of commercial activities has
occurred in recent years from urban downtown areas. This
urban sprawl has, in some instances, created undesirable
situations in central city areas contributing to the
subsequent decline in the tax base.
~ The Florida League of Cities will:
308.1 Support technical and financial assistance to
municipalities in redeveloping and revitalizing downtowns
and existing urban areas.
308.2 Support legislation that provides incentives to t
voluntarily enhance the quality of life of Florida
citizens through fair, safe, sanitary and decent housing,
provided such enhancements are consistent with local
building, land use and zoning requirements.
308.3 Support the ability of municipalities to effectively
establish and operate community redevelopment agencies
and. to utilize tax increment financing as a tool for
community and economic development.

INTERGOVERNMENTAL RELATIONS
priority
The Florida League of cities will support legislation to prohibit
legislative or administrative statewide mandated programs without
sufficient appropriated state funding.
state Mandates
400 Existing state legislative or administrative mandated
programs without state funding seriously disrupt home
rule powers granted to cities by the constitution of this
state. If the state has a perceived need for
implementing pOlicies and programs of a "statewide"
interest, then they should be funded by the state
Legislature. Interjection of state governmental
priorities through a series of mandates and unfunded
programs forced upon local governments seriously disrupts
the ability of local officials to establish priorities
and resolve problems.
The Florida League of cities will: ¡
400.1 Support legislation to require state agencies to provide
a detailed economic impact statement to all affected
local governmental entities outlining and evaluating all
costs which affect that local government prior to rule
implementation and adoption.
400.2 Support legislation to prohibit unfunded administrative
agency mandates on local government.
400.3 Oppose legislation that will mandate local government to
subsidize private business operations such as financing
and maintaining railroad crossings and signalization
devices.
Multi-Jurisdictional Relationships
401 The Florida League of Cities recognizes that there is a
need for state and regional responses to meet the needs
of citizens that transcend local boundaries. However,
multi-jurisdictional governmental agencies should be
understanding of and responsible to problems of
individual cities.
13
~
.
I
~
.
,
,
.
The Florida League of cities will:
401.1 Support legislation providing for required and
proportionate representation of locally elected officials
on all new and existing regional and local districts,
councils, agencies or state-designated committees which
have an impact on municipalities to ensure a balanced
representation of local governments.
401.2 Support legislation to guarantee direct municipal
government participation in the determination of funding
formulas and methods of distribution of federal and state
funds administered by counties and the state for cities
and municipal programs.
401.3 Oppose legislation or rules that authorize the Governor
and the Cabinet to apply punitive sanctions against
cities or counties submitting untimely or non-compliant
local comprehensive plans without considering the
individual merits of each case.
401.4 Support legislation which ensures that the High Speed
Rail Program must comply with the comprehensive planning
and financing process of local government. i
Low-Income, Elderly and Disadvantaged citizens
402 Low-income, elderly and disadvantaged citizens create a
complex challenge for Florida cities and a particularly
strong intergovernmental cooperation is necessary.
The Florida League of Cities urges:
402.1 The appropriate state and federal agencies to make their
full resources available to ensure adequate funding,
efficiency and effectiveness of all community service
programs, including affordable housing, especially as it
relates to the low-income, elderly and disadvantaged
citizens.
Municipal Library punding
403 The Florida League of cities recognizes the contribution
made by municipal libraries to the quality of life for
Florida's citizenry.
The Florida League of cities will:
403.1 Support legislation that would provide state funding to
all municipal and regional libraries.

ENVIRONMENTAL QUA~ITY COMMITTEE
PRIORITY
The Florida League of Cities will support Legislation that would
provide incentives and require coordinated planning ef.fort to
direct growth into urban areas where public services may
efficiently be provided and in a manner which will protect
environmentally sensitive areas and/or as provided by local
comprehensive plans.
COMPREHENSIVE PLANNING AND URBAN SPRAWL
500 One of the major environmental concerns facing our state
is the proliferation of urban sprawl. Sprawl results in
destruction of environmentally sensitive lands;
unnecessary expenditure of public finances: inefficient
provision of public services which adversely affect the
quality of life of the citizens of Florida. The
curtailment of urban sprawl should be the primary goal
of our growth management laws. Effective implementation
of these laws should result in urban infill and
redevelopment rather than encouragement of unbridled
growth in rural areas. Sensible and strong enforcement
of the comprehensive planning requirements that public
facilities be "adequate" and "available" prior to
permi tting development is essential in protecting our
environment.
The Florida League of Cities will:
500.1 Support legislation which would promote urban infill by
distinguishing public facility and service provision
requirements in urban areas from those in rural areas.
500.2 Support legislation which would clarify the role of a
municipality to determine the adequacy of public facility
and service provision within its jurisdiction.
500.3 Support legislation which would clearly authorize the
state to enforce an urban sprawl curtailment policy.
500.4 Support legislation which would ease comprehensive
planning requirements for those substantially developed
municipalities which meet statutorily adopted criteria
when easing of the requirement would not result in a
detriment to state or regional interests.
500.5 Support legislation which would provide for waiver of
certain comprehensive planning provisions where
compliance is impractical or would not promote a
substantial state interest.
15

.
500.6 Support legislation which deletes requirements for
addressing mobile homes within the comprehensive plan.
500.7 Support legislation which would clarify that the actions
. of all state and regional agencies and districts shall
adhere to local comprehensive plans.
500.8 support authorization for municipalities to annex by
ordinance where the area to be annexed has been
determined to meet legislatively adopted criteria.
500.9 Support legislation which would allow municipalities to
have extraterritorial planning authority in areas which
meet legislatively adopted criteria.
500.10 Support a method which would provide for immediate
annexation of encircled enclaves into host
municipalities.
500.11 Support legislation which would allow municipalities
simultaneously to process comprehensive plan amendments
and annexation requests.
500.12 Support legislation or rules which would allow i
municipalities to enter into pre-annexation development
agreements with landowners seeking to annex into a
municipality.
500.13 Support legislation which would provide that any new
planning requirements, standards, or guidelines must be
financially feasible and differentiate the needs of urban
redevelopment and in-fill development activities from
rural development activities.
DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATION PERXXTS
501 Protection of our environment is a major concern of all
citizens of the state. The various environmental
permitting processes of the state are important to the
preservation of our natural resources. However, recent
and projected funding cutbacks at the state and federal
levels necessitate that the state permitting process be
streamlined, efficient and cost effective.
The Florida League of Cities will:
501.1 Support legislation which would provide adequate funding
to allow municipalities to meet state permitting
requirements.
16
~

.
,
,
..
501. 2 Support legislation which would allow for continued
discharge from a permitted facility which is operating
in accordance with permit conditions, absent proof that
said facility is causing or contributing to degradation
of water quality.
501.3 Support legislation delegating federal National Pollution
Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permitting to the
state with adequate procedural safeguards.
501. 4 Support legislation to allow delegation of state
permitting programs to municipal government where there
is a demonstration that the local program is equally
stringent or more stringent than the state program.
SOLID WASTE DISPOSAL AND COLLECTION
502 One of the major environmental concerns facing our state
is the proper collection and disposal of solid waste.
The collection and disposal of solid waste has become a
local government problem approaching crisis proportions.
Landfilling cannot continue to be the primary method of
solid waste disposal due to the state's highly permeable
soil and water tables. Developing and implementing ,
alternatives to the use of landfills are costly.
Feasible sol id waste recovery, recycl ing and disposal
systems should be encouraged and supported by state
incentives.
The Florida League of Cities will:
502.1 Support substantial state incentives and grants for the
development and implementation of feasible alternatives
to the continued use of landfills as the primary waste
disposal facility.
502.2 Support continued state incentives for intergovernmental
cooperation, interregional efforts and innovative
solutions to resource recovery programs.
502.3 Support incentives for the existing secondary materials
market to expand, as well as legislation to attract more
of this type of industry to Florida.
502.4 Support legislation which would recognize authority of
municipalities to continue to determine the appropriate
method of collection and disposal of solid waste
generated within their boundaries.

502.5 Support legislation which would place a refundable
deposit on beverage containers to ensure that these
reusable materials may be returned to the economic
mainstream by providing an incentive for collection and
reuse or recycling of such containers.
502.6 Support legislation which would require coordinated
issuance of required environmental permits for solid
waste disposal facilities.
502.7 Support legislation which would require the Department
of Environmental Regulation to issue permits for solid
waste disposal facilities based on best management
practices and to allow for continued use of the facility
absent a demonstration that the facility is causing
environmental harm.
502.8 Support legislation which would require surcharges on
the sale of non-recyclable waste products to fund solid
waste grants for local government.
502.9 Support legislation developing a state policy which
enables fair and equitable rates for the purchase of
electricity generated by city- or county-owned waste- ¡
to-energy plants and sold to privately-owned utilities.
STORKWATER
503 There has been recent recognition that stormwater runoff
contributes to surface water and/or groundwater
pollution. Such pollution is caused by both urban and
agricultural uses.
The Florida League of cities will:
503.1 Support legislation which would require existing urban
development to continue to meet existing stormwater
practices, absent a finding that such practices are
causing significant degradation to water quality and
absent adequate funding for retrofit.
503.2 Support legislation requiring that, where all new
stormwater systems are provided or major revisions are
made to existing facilities, such facilities must meet
current permitting requirements.
503.3 Encourage legislation which would require mitigation of
the harmful effects of agricultural runoff.
503.4 Support legislation which would require all levels of
government and agencies thereof to comply with stormwater
regulations and permits required by local governments for
facilities within their jurisdiction.
IA
~

503.5 Support legislation which provides for reasonable
areawide enforcement of stormwater regulations
(reflecting the concept of "equitable abatement") in
areas which have been significantly adversely affected
provided that enforcement and implementation· of such
regulation shall be economically feasible in urban areas.
503.6 Support legislation which would provide a continued state
funding source for "Stormwater Management."
DEVELOPMENTS OJ' REGIONAL IMPACT (DRI )
504 The DRI program is designed to monitor developments which
impact more than one county. The League recognizes the
need for a coordinated process for reviewing developments
which affect more than one jurisdiction. The concept of
Developments of Regional Impact preserves the concept of
local decision making, but offers an opportunity for a
challenge to a decision which may adversely affect the
citizens of another jurisdiction. While there are some
problems with the DRI process as it exists today, the
League believes that the process can be greatly improved
by making several changes. ,
I
The Florida League of cities will:
504.1 Support legislation providing for the use of the DRI
process which allows review of major developments that
impact across municipal or county boundaries and which
allows the affected adjacent governments to participate
in the appeal of a local government decision on the
development order.
504.2 Support legislation providing for required input into the
Binding Letter of Determination/Development of Regional
Impact process by regional planning councils (RPCs) and
adjoining affected local governments.
504.3 Support legislation providing for a requirement that
state agencies place a priority on the construction
and/or improvement of state facilities necessitated by
the approval of a DRI.
504.4 Support legislation prohibiting the Land and Water
Adj udicatory Commission from granting a development order
where a local government has previously denied the
development permi t or from deleting or altering any
permit condition imposed by the local government.

COASTAL ZONE MANAGEMENT .
The Florida League of cities will:
505.1 Support legislation providing for a goal of at least a
10 percent annual increase of publicly owned' coastal
land, with emphasis on hazard management, beach access
and shoreline recreation with continued support of the
Save Our Coast, CORAL, and other state and federal
funding programs.
505.2 Support legislation which provides for a statewide
dedicated funding source and a statewide planning program
for projects designed to enhance the beach area, such as
beach renourishment and vegetation proj ects, erosion
control, dune enhancement and relocation of seaside
development.
505.3 Support legislation providing for the reexamination of
beach access mandates.
I
505.4 support legislation requiring the state to review
comments from local government officials prior to final ,
decisions regarding permits or leases pertaining to
dumping, and discharge.
505.5 Support legislation which would protect the beach area
and prohibit off-shore oil and gas exploration within 30
miles of the Florida coast.
WATER QUALITY MANAGEMENT AND PLANNING
506 The quality and quantity of potable water are crucial.
Areas cannot be developed unless they have access to an
adequate water supply. The League believes that
considerably more research is needed in this area to
determine the impact of freshwater access to the various
parties.
The Florida League of cities will:
506.1 Support legislation to develop a state water resources
management policy to be implemented within the existing
comprehensive planning process and which deals
responsibly and equitably with issues of local government
administration.
506.2 support legislation providing for guarantees for future
municipal water supplies when the city has properly
reviewed, inventoried and planned for this supply. Areas
should not have the opportunity to consume valuable
. drinking water because of irresponsible planning and
growth management.
20

506.3 Support legislation providing for equitable distribution
of water resources, fair water quality regulations and
measures to encourage water conservation.
'506.4 Support legislation to provide for an immediate source
of state emergency funds to alleviate new discoveries of
potential contaminants in public water supplies.
506.5 Support legislation prohibiting water management
districts from constructing, operating and maintaining
water production and transmission facilities in
competition with municipal facilities.
506.6 Support legislation which will effectively implement the
High Water Recharge (Bluebelt) Amendment to the Florida
Constitution.
WASTEWATER TREATMENT AND REUSE
507 Once municipal water has been used, it is, in most
instances, properly treated and recycled back into the
environment. Although some additional efforts must be
made to improve municipal discharges, the process is í
being constantly improved and upgraded. On the other
hand, package plants and numerous septic tanks often do
not accomplish the level of treatment needed to protect
the ecosystem of the state.
The Florida League of Cities will:
507.1 Support legislation regulating the use of septic tanks
in new development.
507.2 Support a severe limitation on installation of new
package plants and increased regulation of existing
package plants, including strong measures to prevent
improper operations and/or abandonment.
507.3 support legislation providing for state support and
funding of technology and innovative programs that
dispose of wastewater and promote water reuse.
507.4 Support legislation providing for state recognition of
the importance of high water recharge areas to our
citizens and the protection of such.
WETLANDS
508 The state's wetlands are essential to the state's natural
ecosystem. These wetlands provide water filtration and
storage and serve as a natural habitat to fish and
wildlife. . Development in wetland areas should be
prevented.

HAZARDOUS AND TOXIC WASTE
509 The proper storage, disposal, treatment and
transportation of hazardous waste and infectious
materials and other materials for the protection of the
public health, safety and welfare are essential.
The Florida League of Cities will:
509.1 Support legislation providing for a continued revenue
source for the hazardous waste management fund and
encourage its use for reimbursement to local governments
for expenses incurred in abating potential dangers due
to hazardous waste.
509.2 Support legislation which would define infectious wastes
and establish procedures for disposal and transportation
of said waste.
509.3 Support legislation which would allow imposition of civil
penalties which meet or exceed the cost of legal disposal
of toxic materials against illegal dumpers of said
materials. i
509.4 Support legislation to more precisely define hazardous
and toxic waste.

ETHICS AND PERSONNEL
Priority
The Florida Leaque of Cities will support a constitutional
amendment which would equally apply open government and public
meetings laws to all public officials in Florida.
The Florida League of cities will support legislation which would
exempt the lawyer-client relationship from the provisions of the
Government in the Sunshine and Public Records laws.
Personnel Expenditures
600 Municipalities are major employers in Florida, with
more than 100,000 employees. Personnel-related
expenses account for between 60 and 80 percent of
municipal budget expenditures. Municipal officials
are held directly accountable to their citizens for
these fiscal and administrative personnel decisions,
and should therefore have final control over the cost
of providing pay and benefits for their employees.
Mandated increases in these areas place an inequitable i
burden on cities which design and are responsible for
employee benefit and salary plans.
The Florida League of Cities will:
600.1 Oppose any legislation that imposes mandatory
certification, payor fringe benefits for local public
employees and propose that any legislation requiring
mandatory certification, pay and fringe benefits be
extended to state employees, as well as local public
employees.
600.2 Oppose any legislation which would restrict cities'
ability to maintain drug and alcohol free workplaces,
under Home Rule, to include testing, disciplinary
procedures and employee assistance programs.
Local Public Officials
601 The Florida League of Cities recognizes that thousands
of Florida citizens are now serving in municipal
offices and that most serve in this public capacity
with little remuneration and great personal
expenditure of time, effort and talent. We are of the
firm belief that individuals in such public office
should not be subjected to undue or unreasonable
restrictions in order to serve their fellow citizens.
The Florida League of Cities will:
23

"
..
.
601.1 Support legislation which would remove municipal
employees' personal records, similar to those exempted
for law enforcement personnel, from coverage under
the pUblic records law.
601. 2 support legislation which excludes locally appointed
boards, other than those which are quasi-judicial,
from financial disclosure requirements.
601.3 Oppose any expansion of financial disclosure
requirements for elected officials of municipal government.
Employer/Employee aelations
602 Alternatives to collective bargaining, such as
strikes, binding arbitration and using the "end run"
to obtain pay and/or benefits, are unacceptable to
locally-elected representatives in Florida.
The Florida League of Cities will:
602.1 support existing constitutional provisions which
prohibit public employee strikes, in that they seriously
disrupt delivery of services to citizens. ¡
602.2 Oppose any efforts to establish compulsory binding
arbitration as a resolution to impasse under the
collective bargaining law. The injection of an
independent third party into the process of setting
community priorities and levying taxes is alien to a
representative form of government.
602.3 Support legislation which provides for uniform
application of the Chapter 447.203(4), F.S.
definition of "managerial" employee. Also support
legislation which recognizes the potential conflict
of interest between a "confidential" employee and a
collective bargaining agent.
602.4 Support legislation to allow cities and local elected
officials to opt out of the Florida Retirement system.
602.5 Support the preemption of retirement benefits from the
scope of collective bargaining.
602.6 Support legislative repeal of the presumption that
firefighter disabilities claimed from hypertension and
heart disease are accidental and suffered in the line
of duty, and oppose any expansion to include other
employee groups.
602.7 Support legislation which allows a public employer
to petition the Public Employees Relations Commission
for an election when the union lacks continued

602.8 support legislation that would prohibit representation
of law enforcement and correctional officers by unions
whose membership includes non-law enforcement
personnel.

Recall of Elected Officials
603 The Florida League of Cities supports
the rights of citizens to recall their
elected officials for unacceptable
actions, and will support legislation
which clarifies statutory authority to
nullify recall petitions which are based
upon frivolous charges.

F1:om: J e f f rey S. K\irt z , Ass i stant City At to rney ~/I
Subject: Ordinance on Prohibition of Consumption of Alcoholic
Beverages in Public Places
/
This ordinance was drafted as a companion ordinance to the í
ordinance allowing sidewalk cafes, as pursuant to Section
102.66 it is intended that alcoholic beverages may be consumed
at a sidewalk cafe. This ordinance, therefore, will elimin~te
the apparent conflict between the ordinances by specifically
exempting seated patrons at a sidewalk cafe from being subject
to arrest for consuming in public. In addition, the revised
ordinance will also eliminate the threat of arrest from golfers
at the municipal golf course and allows a mechanism by which
the city manager could waive the application of the ordinance
for special events, such as Old School Square grand opening,
Delray Affair and the like. It also provide for an appeal
process to the City Commission for an applicant who has been
denied the requested waiver. The ordinance also closes an
apparent loophole in the previous ordinance by including
streets and right-of-ways in the areas where there is a
prohibition on consumption
If this ordinance is acceptable to staff and City Commission,
it would be suggested that it be placed on an upcoming agenda
for Commission consideration at the time of the sidewalk cafe
ordinance so that there is no possibility of a conflict between
the ordinances.
Should you have any questions concerning this matter, please do
not hesitate to contact our office.

DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING AND ZONING
SUBJECT: MEETING OF FEBRUARY 13, 1990
CONSIDERATION OF A CORRECTING ORDINANCE AFFECTING
ZONING DESIGNATION FOR THE 8TH STREET MARKET
ACTION REQUESTED OF THE COMMISSION:
The action requested of the City Commission is that of
approval on first reading of an ordinance which corrects an
apparent error on the zoning map.
The property involved is commonly known as the 8th Street
Market. The zoning map shows RM-10; the appropriate zoning
appears to be GC.
BACKGROUND:
This property was zoned as C-2 upon annexation in 1971. Since
that time, the zoning map has shown three different designations
and one map showed no designation even though there have been no
site specific rezonings of the property.
Please see a staff memorandum and the request letter for more
detail.
The Future Land Use Map designates the property as Commercial;
thus, the original zoning of Commercial is still appropriate.
In similar circumstances, when it has been shown that an apparent
error has been made on the official zoning map, the situation has
been corrected by an ordinance.
PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD CONSIDERATION:
Since this is a clear case of correcting an apparent error,
Planning and Zoning Board review is not required.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
By motion, approval of this correcting ordinance on first
reading.

Dear Sam:
This letter is in response to your request of January 18, 1990,
regarding the zoning verification of the subject property
described above.
Pursuant to Ordinance No. 27-71, the subject property was annexed
to the City of Delray Beach on September 13, 1971, with a zoning
designation of C-2 (General Commercial). The City Clerk's
records do not indicate rezoning of the property since the date
of annexation.
The 1989 zoning map indicates the property as being zoned RM-10
(Multiple-Family Dwelling District). In order to change the
zoning map, a correcting ordinance must be drafted and approved
by the City Commission. The correcting ordinance requires a
. public hearing. We will initiate the appropriate actions to
correct this matter.
However, until such time as the zoning is officially changed, the
site is considered to be RM-10, as shown on The Official Zoning
Map.
Attached is a copy of Ordinance No. 27-71 for your records. If
you have any questions, please contact me at 243-7040.
Sincerely, ,.-

This is a wr-itten request for zoning restrictions for
the above described lot. We have operated this grocery store
for the last twenty years and this building was a grocery
store twenty years prior to that. We believe this lot was in
the county prior to sewer installation approximately 10 to 15
years ago, at which time it was annexed into the city. The
main structure was remodeled and enlarged around 1960 at
which time there were three additional bays built for various
tenants, two of which have been rented as food services and
one as a clothing store.
Our main concern is to determine the zQning restrictions
for these bays and allowable tenants. We WOllI d like to know
if and when the zoning wa.s changed. If it was changed, we
would like to know what the restrictions were before and
after the change, and why it was changed.
We do not understapd why this property would ever ha.ve
been zoned anythi ng bllt GC because to the best of our
knowledge it has a.lways been operated as a commercial
business. If it is not zoned this way, we also reqllest
information to change the zoning to GC. Thank You. RECE\VED

Subj er;t- ~ Response to InGuiry C0nc~rninq Pot~ntial Modification
of F1nancial Requirements for Pol.i.cp. and Firefighter
Pens~Qn System
I I
Some weeks ago, the Police 'Ánd Firefighter 'Pension Boa.rd of
Trustee.:; requested that the City Attorney's Office conduct
research on potential modifications to the ordinances governing
the financing and fund management, for the Police and Fire
Pension Fund. After exhaustive research and consultation
with our outside counsel, this memorandum is to set. forth some
of our findings and to provide you with a proposed ordinance
that we believe would be in accordance with your direction.
The premise upon which the City Attorney's Office proceeded was
that. the Police and Fir0.fight€:r Pension Board of Trustees
believed that, in par t , returns on our investments could be
enhanced by modifying or eliminating certain restrictions on
pension fund invcstments contained in the ordinances of the
city. It is our understanding thr:! t the Pension Board was
interested in amending or removing any investment restrictions
which were overly restrictive or which go beyond the
restrictions provided in Florida Statutes Chapters 175 and 185.
I n our opinion, the m05t rc.str ict, i ve investment provisions of
the Police and Firefighter Pension Ordinances are contained in
Section 33.66 of the Code of 01'<:3 .Lnanc(~s . In subsection
33.66(E) (2), the ordinanc~:)s pnwide restrictions on pension
fund investments in corporate st:ocks and bonds to be:
1- corporations listed on anyone or more of the recognized
national stock exchang~s, and holding a rating in one of
the three highest classifications by a major rating
service. This provision is essentially identical to
language set forth in Florida Statutes Sections
175.071(1)(b)4(a) and 185.06(1)(p)4(a).

2. Corporations which hëwe pai'J ~rìsh dividends for a period

There is no similar provision in either Chapters 175 01'
185, Florida Statutes.
I
3 . Those corporations \.¡hich have after-tax earnings in an
average amount equal t.O at least two times the amount of
yearly interest charges on their bonds, and. an amount at
least equal to two times the amount of interest charges in
each of the three fiscal years immediately preceding
purchase; where those corporations which over the seven
fiscal years immediately precedin.g purchase have
after-tax earnings in an average amount equal to at least
six percent of the par value of their bonds, and equal to
at least six percent of the par value of their bonds in
each of kfe three fiscal years immediately preceding
purchase.! Again there arc no similar provisions in
Florida Statutes Chapters 175 or 185.
4 . Those corporations which are not in default or which have
not been in default. wi thin tbe immediately preceding five
year period. There is no similar provision in the Florida
Statutes at Chapter 175 or 185.
5 . The Pension Board is prohibited from investing more than
five percent of Pension Fund assets in the stock of any
one issuing company, or from acquiring more than three
percent of the outstanding stock of any one company.
These restrictions are similar to those provided in
Florida Statute Sections 175.071 and 185.06, except that
the Florida Statutes prohibit an investment in any one
issuing company which exceeds five percent of the
outstanding stock of that company.
;
6 . The Pension Board is prohibited from investing more than
fifty percent of fund assets and stocks. Florida Statutes
Sections 175.071 and 185.06 contain a maximum thirty
percent limitation on stock (equi.ty) investments.
However, the sb1tutes specifically state that
municipalities with "l.ocal la"J" pension plans may modify
the investment pt'ocedures contained in the statutes
through a municipa.l ordinance. Although municipalities
with local law pension plans such as ours are not required
to comply with most of the pr.ovisions of the statute
concerning pension fund investments, we have, attached
hereto, submitted a proposal which we believe would
nonetheless accomplish your stated objectives.

While Section 33.66, Delray Beach Code of Ordinances, could be
repealed in its entirety and replaced with totally new language
governing pension fund finances i nvestrnents) we believe that
Section 33.66, Delray Beach Code of Ordinances, can be amended
to modify or delete only those investment provisions which are
more restr icti ve than those in Flat" ida Statutes Chapters 175
and 185.
In that regard, we have pr8parect ~ draft ordinance (attached)
whicb follows this approach of modifying or deleting the
investment provisions which arc more restrictive than the
Florida Statutes. The ordinance thus amends only those
provisions of Section 33.66, DE~lr-3.Y Beach Code of Ordinances
which place great,er restrictions on pension fund investments
then are current.ly contained in Flor ida Statutes Chapters 175
and 185, which/ihe provisions of the ordinances which are now
less restrictiP¿ than the statutes have been retained in their
current. form.
It would be appreciated if you could place this matter before
the next meeting of the Board of Trustees for further
discussion and direction to the City Attorney's Office. In the
interim, if you have any questions concerning the materials set
forth in this memorandum or the attached draft ordinance,
please contact the me personally at YOUl' earliest conveni,enca.

Re: NORTH FEDERAL HIGHWAY LANDSCAPE PLANS
Date: February 16, 1990
BACKGROUND
In December of 1989 the Commission was apprised of the fact that the
F.D.O.T. would not permit the installation of the landscaping designed by
H.Kurt Kettelhut & Associates without the reconstruction of all of the
median curbing. The construction of nonmountable curbing was estimated at
$160,000.00. It was the consensus of the Commission that the landscape plan
would be redesigned by staff with 'non-impacting' plant materials which
would be accepted by F.D.O.T. without changing the existing curbing.
DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED PLAN
- -
The basic restrictions on the design are that none of the plant materials
will be of a type that will have a trunk diameter greater than four inches
at maturity unless they can maintain a 10 foot off-set from the face of the
curb and that visability must be maintained between a height of 30 inches
and 6 feet.
This project includes the medians between N.E. 8th Street and Gulfstream
Boulevard and the utility strips along the sides of the road. The medians
will be irrigated, the sides of the road will not.
Beginning with the large median just north of Plastridge Insurance - this
median is wide enough that Royal Palms and substantial shade trees can be
used. This is the median in which one of the new City entrance signs will be
located. The existing Seagrape will be saved, the Sabal Palms will be
relocated, shrub massing will be used to create focal points within the
median.
Median II 2 has three existing Black Olives which the D.O.T. has said we
could leave, even though they do not meet the current requirements for set-
backs. This median will, therefore, be atypical, but will carry the plant
materials and theme of the rest of the medians as much as possible.
Medians # 3 through # 13 are using Paurotis Palms as the central theme. The
medians alternate the types of plants but maintain a similar design for
continuity. As an example, one median will have Silver Buttonwood
connecting the Paurotis Palms and Cattley Guavas in a curvilinear fashion.
1
.
I
I .
t-
.
I \~
,
~
The Buttonwood is faced with Ìndian Hawthorne and Liriope. In the following
median, Myrsine will be used in place of the Buttonwood, Silver Buttonwood
standards will be used in place of the Cattley Guava, Yellow Lantana will be
used in place of the Liriope and Ilex vomitoria will take the place of the
Indian Hawthorne.
Kettelhut's original plans did not include any sod. I have maintained a
minimum of 5 feet of sod along the length of the medians and typically 100
feet from the ends of the medians are sodded. The shrubs massings are
consolidated around the larger materials. This will allow a better contrast
between the shrubs and ground covers and will reduce maintenance with
respect to the amount of weeding that will have to be done within the
planting beds.
The utility strips along the sides of the road will have the existing weeds
removed and have drought tolerant Bahia planted flush with the curb. I have
selected Carrotwood Trees to be planted approximately every 60 feet, unless
there is a conflict with a light pole or existing vegetation. Carrotwoods
are very drought tolerant, do well in poor soil conditions, and will be able
to be maintained below the powerlines as they mature at about a 25 foot
height.
Plans are being sent to F.D.O.T. for permitting, upon their approval we can
go through the bid process and expect that the project could begin
construction in May with completion by July or August.
Slides of the proposed materials will be presented for your review at the
Commission meeting on February 27, 1990.

Re: FREEZE DAMAGE - ATLANTIC AVENUE/I-95 INTERCHANGE
Date: February 21, 1990
An inspection was made of the Interchnage at West Atlantic Avenue to
ascertain plant materials that were killed due to the December 24, 1989
freeze. The following materials were killed in the freeze:
33 Black Olive Trees @ $130.00 $ 4,290.00
1,105 Cocoplum shrubs @ $7.50 8,287.50
10 Royal Poinciana Trees @ $120.00 1,200.00
2 Jacaranda Trees @ $150.00 300.00
22 Pink Tabebuia @ $135.00 2,970.00
---------
$17,047.50
There are a few sections of the Cocoplum that are not entirely dead and that
could come back by summer. I would prefer to replace all the Cocoplum with a
more cold tolerant selection, such as the Myrsine, which I will have slides
of at the February 27, 1990 Commission meeting. Cocoplum is recommended for
planting in this area, but it is recognized that it is subject to cold
damage at temperatures sustained below 28 degreess for over 6 hours. Since
South Florida's '100 year' freezes seem to be happening about every three
years, I would rather use a more cold hardy material. The Myrsine will cost
an additional $.50 per plant or $552.50 extra.
The Pink Tabebuias have been practically wipped out from nurseries at any
decent size, and I am suggesting that we relocate the remaining Tabebuias to
maintain some sense of design. All but 3 Tabebuias are dead west of the
overpass. I would like to replace the Tabebuias on the west side with Nerium
Oleander Standards which will compliment the plantings in the median. The 3
remaining Tabs can be relocated to the east side, which would require
locating only 5 Pink Tabs, since only a total of 8 died on the east side.
Materials replacements that I am recommending are as follows:
18 Nerium Oleander Standards @ $90 $ 1,620.00
.33 Black Olives @ $135 4,290.00
1105 Myrsine guianensis @ $8.00 8,840.00
10 Royal Poinciana @ $120 1,200.00
5 Pink Tabebuia @ $135 675.00
2 Jacaranda Trees @ $150.00 300.00

TO: Malcolm T. Bird, Interim City Manager
FROM: Lee R. Graham, Risk Management Director
THRU: John W. Elliott, Jr., Asst. City Manage~
DATE: February 20, 1990
SUBJECT: Renewal of the Group Health Plan
The renewal of the City's Group Health Plan is March 1, 1990. The Plan is
primarily one of self-insurance in which the City pays for its OYTI claims.
Any individual claim which exceeds $60,000 in the policy year then triggers
full insurance for any excess of that amoun t . It will be cost efficient to
increase this self-insured maximum to $75,000 for the coming year.
The Plan is knoYTI as an A.S.O.+ (Administrative Services Only Plus) Contract.
The City, on a monthly basis, pays for three categories of charges:
l. Administrative Fee - Claims handling, recording, commission, etc.
2. Pooling Fee - The insured specific loss portion over the self-insured
maximum per claim.
3. Utilization Review/PPO Fee - A cost control service through review,
certification, claims management, and provider fee negotiation.
Charges for these three categories are factored times the number of "Units"
consisting of employees, retirees, and former employees covered under
C.O.B.R.A. , the federal law which mandates that the City must allow former
employees to remain covered on the group health plan for 18 months while
making their monthly payments to the City. The monthly charges per unit
currently and projected are:
1989-90 1990-91
l. Administrative Fee (Retention 591-34-64) $9.92 $12.48
2. Pooling Fee (Specific Loss 591-34-67) $7.96 $ 7.96*
3. Utilization Review/PPO (591-34-68) $2.45 $ 2.45
*(Pooling fee remains constant by increasing the self-insured retention from
$60,000 to $75,000.) Additionally, there is an annual aggregate premium of
$13,700 (591-34-66).

The projected rates were negotiated down from the original quote received
initially this renewal period. Dave Huddleston and I together met with
Steven Belcher, the Regional Group Manager for American General. We told him
the initial renewal quote was not acceptable and directed him to renegotiate
with underwriting to improve the service renewal prices. (See Exhibit I for
the initial quote.) The prices were then revisited and improved at a later
meeting (See Exhibit II. ) Still not satisfied, we pressed for further
improvement (See Exhibit III) and are now satisfied that the price increase
is minimal. (The Administrative fee now includes a new state premium tax of
$2.06 which was not included last year; therefore, the increase in the amount
of the Administrative rate is $0.50, an increase of only 5%. Exhibit IV is a
monthly rate worksheet.
Claims
Claims in the most recent past year have increased significantly over the
prior year in both number and severity, registering a 42.4% increase in cost.
With projections of an even higher cost for the coming year, it becomes
prudent to institute several cost-cutting changes.
1. Co-insurance. A change from the present 90%/70% P.P.D./Non-P.P.O. to
80%/70% would be a claims saving of approximately 4.6%.
2. Out-patient surgery and pre-admission testing is currently paid at 100%.
Applying a $200 deductible and applicable co-insurance would represent a
claims saving of 2.4%.
3. Hospital confinement. The application of a $200 deductible for
non-P.P.O. confinements would result in a claims saving of 1.9%.
4. Maximum out-of-pocket expense. Currently at a level of $1,000 P.P.O.
(plus $200 deductible), and $2,000 level non-P.P.D. (plus the $200
deductible). A suggestion was made to increase those maximums to $2,000
and $3,000 respectively.
The theory in each of these proposed changes is that it is desirable to keep
the health care user involved in the payment of claims, thus adding a degree
of control.
The health claims for the calendar year 1989 totalled $1,397,791 and the
projection for the next 12 month period is $1,822,733.
Rates
The monthly rates necessary to sustain the claims of the projected future
policy period should be:
Employee Dependents
$181.20 $171.40
Current rates are $74.60 for each employee and $130.00 for a dependent unit.

RE: Group No. 5414
Dear Lee,
Pursuant to our recent discussion and in accordance with the advanced 60 day
notice requirement under your policy, I am providing you with notification of
the proposed renewal action to be effective March 1, 1990. The new rates are
included in the attachments with this letter.
As you review the renewal information, you will note that both the Maximum
Annual Paid Claims Liability and the Run-Off Claim Cap have increased
substantially. During the first 9 months of this current policy year, paid claims
were running at approximately 89% of the maximum claims attachment point~
This is considerably higher than is desired given that the annual claims attachment
point resresents expected claims plus a 25% margin.
Of the paid claims during the last 12 months, only 1 claim exceeded the current
$60,000 specific stop-loss. Generally, the specific stop-loss coverage is established
at approximately 1096 of expected claims. Given that your paid claims for the
last 12 months have run at nearly 1.4 million dollars, you may want to consider
increasing the specific stop-loss which would afford considerable savings with
regards to the monthly fixed cost of your plan.
With regards to the claim deposit, it appears that your account has been operating
in a deficit position on a regular basis. Based on your past pattern of claim
deposits, the account needs to be funded for approximately 11 t days worth of
expected claims. Going forward into the next policy year, this would equate
to a required claim deposit of approximately $87,200. This is considerably higher
than past required deposits. Naturally, this required deposit can be lowered
given a more frequent reimbursement pattern.
Lee, in light of this anticipated increase, I requested the underwriter provide
some suggested plan alternatives which would both lower the needed increase
and also offset future claims costs for your group. These suggested changes
are outlined in Exhibit III attached to this letter.

De1ray Beach, F10rida 33444
RE: Group No. 5414
Dear Lee,
Pursuant to our last meeting, I asked the underwriting department to revisit ¡
our rate projections for your upcoming renewa1 on March 1, 1990. Attached
you will find our revised projections.
As you review the exhibits, you will note that our projections have been reduced
considerably. As we have discussed, the MaximumAMual Paid C1aims Liability
is simply a function of paid cIaims plus inf1a·tionary trends and margin. With
regards to this component, we have reduced our annualized trend from 2496 to
20%. Fifteen. months of trend is stUl utilized as we are basing our projections
off of c1aims trom 12/1/88 to 12/1/89. We will review the claims experience
tor the 12 month period 2/1/89 to 2/1/90 at the end of this month. It the 12
month c1aims figure for that time period proves to be more favorable we will
revise our Maximum Paid Claims Liability factor to reflect the improved
experience.
As I mentioned in our last meeting, the underwriter has agreed to offer a $75,000
Specific Pooling Arrangement at the existing rate of $'1.96, which is currently
being charged for a $60,000 pooling point. Should you elect to maintain the
existing $60,000 level, our fee hBs been reduced to $9.84 from the origina1
projection of $11.66.
As a result of the revised expected c1aims projection, the aggregate premium
has been reduced slightly to $14,100. The UM/PPO fee remains at $2.45 per
employee per month.
Finally, you will note that our administration fee has been reduced considerably.
Please note that of the $13.01 that is being requested, $2.06 represents
State/Federal premium taxes. For your information, Exhibit IV specifically
illustrates the components of our administration fee. Less the premium taxes,
the total increase represented by tIúø new fee is 1096 over 1ast year's fee. In
light ot the fact that total paid c1alma have increased by 42% over the last 12
months, and the actual number of claims paid has increased by 2596, this would
seem to be a reasonable projection.

RE: Gro~ No. 5414
Dear Lee,
As was requested in our last meeting, I asked my underwriter to take one last
look at the administration fee projection for your gro~'s upcoming renewal to
be effective March 1,1990.
,
I am pleased to inform you that the underwriter has agreed to further reduce
the administration fee to $12.48 per employee per month. You will recall in
my letter to you dated 1-16-90, the administration fee was quoted at $13.01
per employee per month. This further reduction is primarily related to a
re-evaluation of the expenses related to actual claims adjudication for your gro~.
Please note that this fee also includes $2.06 per employee per month for
State/Pederal premium taxes. As you know, due to American General's domestic
status in the state of Florida your group has been essentially insulated from state
premium taxes in the past. Unfortunately, this will not be the case in the future
and therefore state premium taxes do apply and have been incorporated into
the administration fee accordingly. At any rate, the actual increase in the
administration fee, excluding premium taxes, is equal to 5% over last year's
figure.
Lee, I hope that this revised fee proves to be an acceptable and satisfactory
offer. After many lengthy discussions with the \U'lderwriter, I am convinced
that we have obtained a reasonable fee and feel comfortable that this is the
best possible rate for your group. Please share this information with the
appropriate individuals and give me a call should you have any specific questions.
Very SIncerely Yours,
~Bd-'

RE: Group No. 5414
Dear Lee,
You will recall that in conjunction with the March 1st renewal of your group,
we agreed to review the claims through the month of January and adjust our
renewal projections, if the updated claims were favorable.
In fact, the 12 month period from 211/89 to 2/1/90 has proven to be more favorable
than the original 12 months which was utilized in our renewal projections. Below,
I have ouWned our revised figures on both a $60,000 Specific Stop-Loss and an
alternative $75,000 Specific stop-Loss. Please note that there is no change in
the utilization review fee, administration fee, and the specific stop loss rate.
Coverage $60,000 $75,000
Aggregate Cap $3,291. 83 $3,321.98
Run-off Cap $905.26 $913.55
Annual Aggregate Premium $13,700.00 -
Lee, after you have had an opportunity to review these figures please give me
a can should you have any specific questions. Thank you tor your attention in
this matter.

Very Sincerely Yours,

Mr. Malcolm T. Bird
City Manager
City of Delray Beach
lOa, N.W. lst. Avenue
Delray Beach, FL 334444
February 13th. 1990.
Dear Malcolm,
It has now been forty five days since the contract has
been signed. To bring you upto date with our progress in
obtaining financing, there appears to be some reluctance from
the local banks in making a quick decision. Due to not having
a commitment as of this date there has not been a formal
appraisal made from a banking institution. The first
application that was made prior to the fifteen day requirement
was submitted to choice funding in Boco Raton, as of this date
we have not had a loan acceptance from them.
Wi th time coming down the path we submitted two more
loan applications, one to NCNB Bank and the other to Sun Bank,
both instit~tions seem favorable after looking over our
application, but due to the recent flurry of publicity
regarding banks having so many bad loans, and it appears any
new business goes in with a strike against it, also as new
residence of Florida it is taking longer than anticipated in
securing a mortgage, if only the banks could get over this
hurdle quickley and realize that this is our third venture in
this business and understand we have been successful twice
before we would be approved immediately.
We hope to hear from them in the next seven days, at
this time we are requesting an extension of our proposed
closing date to March 30th. 1990. It is our firm belief we
will not require all of this time, but please be assured we
will keep intouch with our progress.
If you should have an alternative idea which would
bring us to~earlier closing we are open to discussion.

To: Malcolm T. Bird, Inter.im City (VIana~~r
Fr,Qm: .,' HerbertW. A:, Thiele, ,City- Attorney
Subject: Additions! Comments Regarding Bond Counsel Selection for
Water and Sewer Issue
This memorandum is being generated. in response to your inquiries concerning
some additional infQrmation and recommendations with re.gard to the proposed
selection of bond counsel that is on tl}e Citv: Commission's agenda for
February 27, 1990. Additionally., this mè.morandum is to give you some
further thoughts; given the situation occurring with regard to' my pendinp:
resignation. effective at tbe end of April, 1990 (in order to assume the
responsibilities of Leon 'CountY' Attorn~y, on April 30th).
.. In that~~t'.~y·' gre~te~t' co~ce~n, ~~h ~egal"d to the'sel~ctJon of bon~
'-
- counsel for the upcoming water and sewer issue (which Is to be set on an
accelerate pace). is the tact that I wiD probably not be ELvaUable after the
end of April to assist in any great measure with the bond documents. the
potentia] negotiations or discussions with a negotiated purchaser/competitive
bidder, . potential court validation. and the subsequent drafting of the closing
documents. While it has been my practice over the years to have at least two
of the three lawyers in the office fsmUiar with almost every subject matter
and file, unfortúnately in the past number of bond issues this has been an
area of law and practice which has generally been ac~omplisheð. only by
myself.
Given the scenør.io that neither Susan Ruby nor Jeff Kurtz will have very
much fsmiliarity with the subject of a' water and sewer bond issue on the
document drafting. and given the selection of a new bond counsel with
unknown procedures and methQdologies. it would seem to me to be the most
cost-effective and prudent course to continue to retain the firm of Mudge,
Rose, Guthrie, Alexandex- & Ferdon for this next water and sewer bond issue,
and then go through the process of formulating the requests for proposals for
bond counsel fol" futul"e issues if that is still desired. Please note that I had
previously transmitted to the City Commission a draft of an RFP for such
purposes, leaving the selection purpose of general bond counsel, counsel for
a specia1 issue, or a rotation basis for the City Commission to consider.

As to the other persons/firms who had submitted proposals~ since the City
Commission has not designated any specific criteria by which, to compare these
firms, a "rankingt' or comparison is very difllcult. However, let me say that
based upon my experience with some of the other firms on the list and
knowing their work product, it would appear to me that,. the proposals
submitted by Mudge, R.ose. the Greenberg, Traurig 'firm, and the joint
propC'lsaJ from Holland & Knight with the Gunster, Yoakley fIrm a11 evidence
the type of experience, background. expertise. and familiarity with the City
of Delrny Beach and its bond issues that would bring them to the top of the
selection group. It is mostly ba9~d upon my familiarity with the quality of
tyork lind my' concern with having ctintin1.1ity foUówmg "mý~ leaVúlg· the City
that I recommend to ~rou the further retention nt the Mudge,' Rose firm.
While 1 do not doubt that the other persons who submitted proposals in
response to our request, as well as the unsolicited proposals. are from firms
who could generally handle the City's public finance matters, I am personally
unfamiUar with any of their work on such issues8nd would be concerned
about recommending them,. to you without having reviewed same or without
having some criteria established by the. City Commission with which to Judge
:their proposals.
It you have ,any further questions ,nth regard to this matter, please
immediately contact me personally.

MEMORANDUM
Date: February 15, 1990
To: City Commission
Malcolm T. Bird, Interim City Manager ..........-
David M. Huddleston-, Director of Finance
From: Herbert W. A. Thiele, City Attorney
Subject: Heceipt of Proposals for Bond Counsel
In accordance with the City Commission's direction, the City Attorney's Office
issued letters on February 2, 1990 to various firms throughout the South
Florida area who had contacted the City Attorney's Office expressing an
interest in either becoming or being retained as the City's bond counsel,
either in general or for specific issues.
The letter sent to each of these firms which was copied to the City Commis-
sion indicàtè"d that any of these firms who wish to be considered needed to
submit proposals to the City Attorney's Office on or before 4:00 p.m. on
Wednesday, February 14, 1990. Since no requirements or standard qualifica-
tions were previously approved by the City Commission, we had only
indicated that proposals should be presented if these firms were interested,
and such proposals to contain the information and criteria which these firms
thought appropriate to be considered by the City. With the exception of the
firm of Caldwell 81 Pacetti, each of the firms whom we had sent letters
presented a proposal (although the firms of Holland & Knight and Gunster,
Yoakley, & Stewart presented a joint proposal) , as well as two firms
(Hodgson, RUBS, Andrews, Woods & Goodyear, as well as Livermore, Klein &
Lott, who did not receive such letters) submitted proposals.
Copies/Originals of each of the proposals are now avaiJable in the City
Manager's Office for your review. Since the City Commission has not
established any criteria or qualifications for review of these proposals, the
City Attorney's Office has not presented any analysis or recommendations on
the proposals which have been submitted. However, if ~70U would like the
City Attorney's Office to provide you with any recommendations, suggestions
or criteria, or any other information on the subject, please contact me
personally. We do have a serious concern with the proposed retention of the
Moyle, Flanigan , Katz, Fitzgerald & Sheehan firm in that they are currentJy
representing some of the defendants in our ongoing toxic waste litigation
involving Aero- Dri. We are requesting that this matter be placed upon the
City Commission's agenda for Tuesday, February 27, 1990 for your regular

TO: Malcolm Bird ,
Interim City Manager
FROM: 0) David M. Huddleston
Director of Finance
SUBJECT: Bond Counsel Selection Process
DATE: February 22, 1990
We had a discussion today with Tom Holly, a representative from Public
Financial Management, Inc. (PFM), our newly appointed Financial Advisory
Firm in regards to the upcoming General Obligation Bond Issue and the Water
and Sewer Revenue Bond Issue. I indicated that we were starting to
schedule meetings for the General Obligation Bond Issue and would schedule
a calendar for the Water and Sewer Revenue Bond Issue once the Bond Counsel
was selected. He advised that the Bond Counsel selection process could
have a very serious impact on the City and that PFM will be available to
establish criteria and assist in the selection process, if so desired. Mr.
Holly advised that the responsibility of Bond Counsel is to review the
conformity of legal requirements and to assist in the bond process to
ensure that bond covenants are in the best interest of the City.
He indicated that, aside from Bond Counsel's technical support, it is
highly advisable to have a nationally recognized Bond Buyer Red Book firm
with significant previous experience in municipal finance. He indicated it
would be inappropriate to not use a nationally recognized firm. In the
competitive bidding process, it is necessary to access as many buyers as
possible. He indicated that many potential buyers will not accept a
Non-Red-Book firm. In the marketing of bonds, it will be necessary to have
a well recognized firm so potential buyers will not have to ask "who is
this firm?" Potential buyers desire the highest comfort level (less
questions/less risk) and correspondingly a lower interest rate for the
City. The following table depicts possible costs to the City if the
interest rates varied by 0.05%, 0.10% or 0.15%:
Amount Borrowed: $15,000,000
Term: 20 Years
Additional Interest Average Annual Cost Lifetime Cost
0.05% $ 5,507 $110,140
0.10% $11,014 $220,280
0.15% $16,521 $330,420
Mr. Holly indicated that the City should also consider in the selection
process who it is assigned, the number of attorneys in the firm and the
availability of the primary attorney and each representative (in the event

the primary attorney is not available). He stated that the primary and
back-up representatives should be Red Book attorneys. He advised of the
advantages of having a national firm and that this becomes more apparent in
larger complex issues where Bond Counsel has access to similar issues
nationwide.

DATE: FEBRUARY 23, 1990
If the City were to hire a planner as proposed by the CRA the person.
hired would be subject to all City personnel policies and procedures.
These include hiring, firing and disciplinary procedures including
Civil Service Rules. The City would need to do the hiring. It would
also require that we provide all fringe benefits given to other
employees to include health, life, disability, retirement, workers
compensation benefits, all vacation, sick leave and other benefits.
The City would also be financially responsible for any awards of
unemployment compensation which might arise from this employment
arrangement. The employee would also be eligible for pay raises and
performance increases.
As proposed, the employee would be under the policy direction of the
CRA, thus we would have all the responsibilities without authority over
the work element. These responsibilities would also include any
liability issues that might arise from the employee's actions.
I would think that the 5% to 10% benefit that might be derived by the
City could be better put to use by the CRA in the planning process for
redevelopment projects.
Based on all of the above it would be my recommendation that the CRA
hire the planner directly.

~E OF THE CITY CLERK
~~~
FROM: DAVID J. OVAC, ~I~
DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING AND ZONING
SUBJECT: REGULAR MEETING OF FEBRUARY 27, 1990
NAMING OF "MINI-PARK" ASSOCIATED WITH "THE FIVE SITES"
HISTORIC MARKER
ACTION REQUESTED OF THE COMMISSION:
The action requested of the City commission is that of
officially naming the small (378 sq. ft. ) area at the
southwest corner of the Greater Mt. Olive Missionary Baptist
Church 5th Avenue parking lot.
The requested name is "B.F. James and Frances Jane Bright
Park".
BACKGROUND:
The naming is requested by representatives of The Community
Churches of Delray Beach United. The request has been reviewed
by the Historic Preservation Board and it has endorsed the
naming. The selected name represents the first two teachers of
School No. 4, Delray Colored.
The "mini-park" is actually on land owned by Mt. Olive Baptist
Church upon which the City has obtained an easement for the
purpose of erecting a historic marker. As a part of the easement
agreement, the City has agreed to provide perpetual maintenance of
landscaping improvements which are to be installed by others.
ISSUE:
The City Commission does not have a formal policy for the naming
of facilities. In this case, the facility is not an official
City park but is only the site of a historic marker. Having the
concept of the site being a "mini-park" by naming it as a "park"
may be misleading.
As an alternative to the requested action, it may be appropriate
to name the site as "The Five Sites Historic Marker" dedicated to
B.F. James and Frances Jane Bright.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Commission discretion.

RE: REQUEST TO ERECT TEMPORARY TENT/AMES DEPARTMENT STORE
FEBRUARY 28, 1990 THRU MARCH 19, 1990
BACKGROUND:
Ames Department Store, located at 14550 S. Military Trail is
requesting City Commission approval to erect a temporary tent in
the southwest corner of the store's parking lot. The purpose of
the tent is to accommodate customers for a proposed Promotion

According to Chapter 150.100 under our Code of Ordinances, the
approval to erect a temporary tent may be granted by the City

a tent for the sale of seasonal items which when protected from
the sun, provides for a less hazardous product for public use.
RECOMMENDATION:
The store manager has made application for permit to erect the
temporary tent in compliance with policies and procedures. The
tent size is estimated at 25' x 80'. Staff recommends approval
to erect the temporary tent for the designated time period.
