At this point, the Commission moved to Comments and Inquiries on Agenda and Non-Agenda Items from the City Manager and the Public Immediately Following Presentations. 6.A. City Manager's response to prior public comments and inquiries. With regard to a question raised by Dr. Victor Kirson regarding the commercial development at Linton Boulevard and Federal Highway, the Interim City Manager stated there are some issues regarding the parking; eleven percent (11%) reduction in the parking and there are some things that must be done and the developer will be required alleviate these issues through a number of different mechanisms depending on how significantly the parking is affected at the site. The Interim City Manager stated there were numerous people who spoke at the last meeting about the Artists Alley and staff was asked to take a look at this and determine if there is a way that the city can become involved in helping to ensure whatever way that the Artists Alley will continue to thrive. The Interim City Manager stated a meeting is scheduled that will include Mayor Glickstein, himself, and the Planning and Zoning Director to discuss this. The Interim City Manager stated the sale of the property has been postponed until February 23, 2015. With regard to an individual who spoke about crime in the city and his concern about the number of shootings and homicides, the Interim City Manager stated every city has unique policing challenges and to compare one city to the next based on size and population alone is not always the best indicator especially for a community like Delray where there are so many people coming in from the outside. The City's true population based upon the census is never reflected in how many the city actually has here. The Interim City Manager stated the City has an excellent crime clearance rate and the City's crime rate is dropping according to the UCR numbers provided by the FBI. He stated the Police Department has undertaken some initiatives with the appointment of Police Chief Goldman that are reaching out to the community and becoming more community centric and more community active. 2 11/04/14 I The Interim City Manager stated staff met with OIG today and they are incredibly encouraged about the positive way the city is working together with them. Jack Warner, Chief Financial Officer, stated there are 15 "prior approval" items on the Agenda being sponsored by Purchasing and all relate to City Code Section 36.03(B) which is any acquisitions during the fiscal year with a single vendor greater than $25,000 requires prior authorization by the City Commission. Mr. Warner stated staff has been developing the information systems that give the City the ability to predict these purchases and take the proper action before they occur; sometimes the proper action is a bid or simply to recognize that the situation is going to occur. Mayor Glickstein stated the Agenda items which state "prior approvals" should read "advanced approvals" and this is an example of how Mr. Warner is being proactive on dealing with this issue. Mr. Warner stated staff will be discussing all of the changes that have I been made and are continuing to make at Purchasing including the new Chief Purchasing Officer joins and begins work on Monday,November 10, 2014. j 6.B. From the Public. i i 6.B.1. Virginia Snyder, 200 South Swinton Avenue, Delray Beach, FL 33444, urged the City Commission to look into the attempted murder of Melissa Bean. 6.B.2. Alice Finst, 707 Place Tavant, Delray Beach, FL 33445, read a brief statement into the record regarding Shelly Weil's life and commented about his obituary. Ms. Finst stated also this week in obituaries was Delray Beach resident Virgil Norris, the first African-American surgeon in Palm Beach County and the first black doctor to serve at Bethesda Memorial Hospital. In addition, Ms. Finst stated also this week in obituaries was Randall Cooper who was a coach at Seacrest High School from 1955 through the 70's until the mid-1980's. A memorial service will be held on Sunday, November 30, 2014 at 2:00 p.m. in the end zone of the football field at the old Atlantic High School. Ms. Finst also stated that Betty Matthews worked to preserve the beach and the barrier island through her activities through the BPOA and Phyllis Plume participated in the founding of the Child Care Center and the Housing Authority. Ms. Finst asked that space be found in City Hall for a picture and a brief bio to recognize those living currently and deceased who brought Delray Beach to where it is today. She requested that this item be placed on an upcoming Agenda. 6.B.3. Kevin Warner, 148 Venetian Drive, Delray Beach_FL 33483, briefly spoke about his tax bill increasing and encouraged the Commission that when they meet to discuss goals that they lower the tax rate or diversify the City's tax revenue sources. I i 3 11/04/14 Secondly, Mr. Warner referenced a summary of the citizens' request on page 1 of the Downtown Delray Beach Master Plan: "encourage development fronting along the Avenue with three stories as the ideal height and four stories being the maximum desired height." Mr. Warner stated this is what the residents want and urged the Commission to get the proposed LDRs codified, passed, endorsed and put into play. 6.B.4. _Carol Anderson, 1441 East Bexley Park Drive, Delray Beach, FL 33445 (speaking on behalf of S.A.F.E.), distributed a handout to the City Commission and briefly spoke about the sidewalk cafes and the new proposed LDRs. Ms. Anderson stated the City needs to make sure that the existing sidewalk cafes know that as of their next renewal they are going to have to comply with the new provisions. Mayor Glickstein informed Ms. Anderson that her comments were forwarded to Treasure Coast and the Planning and Zoning Director for their consideration. 6.B.5. Ron Nobili, 159 Marine Way, Boat Slip 415,Delray Beach, FL 33444, expressed concern over the parking at the historical district. Mr.Nobili stated he spoke at the last meeting and noted the response was something that was communicated at the last meeting but it was not cast in stone. However, Mr. Nobili stated it is a compromise that he can live with and other people would have one (1) single vehicle and would give people the opportunity to use two (2) parking spots. Mr. Nobili stated the boaters need more than one guest pass because they are not all there at the same time, they do not have driveways or other places to be able to park a vehicle, and sometimes someone may be coming from Jupiter and someone coining from Boca to offload and go on a cruise for a day. Mr. Nobili reiterated that the boaters have no other place to park but in front of the boats. Mr. Nobili stated five (5) years ago there was not a problem with regard to parking at all and the boaters were able to utilize both sides of the street on Marine Way except when there are carnivals held on Atlantic Avenue. 6.B.6. Bob Victorin, 120 South Ocean Boulevard, Apt. #2-A, Delray Beach, FL 33483 (President of the BPOA), commended the Commission for reaching a huge step to preserve a major accent of Delray Beach and that is 11/4 municipal beach and A-1- A walk. Mr. Victorin thanked the Commission and the City Manager for their vision by supporting the Beach Area Master Plan. In addition, Mr. Victorin specifically thanked Mayor Glickstein for challenging the City Manager to research and present a plan to implement and fund the Beach Area Master Plan. He stated Suzanne Davis, Parks and Recreation Director has drafted a Beach Master Plan timeline for improvements with immediate and long-term items. The Environmental Services Department has appraised the draft and Ms. Davis has scheduled a date to meet with the BPOA to review the plan prior to it coming before the Commission. Mr. Victorin stated the BPOA has re- evaluated the original plan and would like to suggest a shift in some of the elements and priorities. i 4 11/04/14 1 Secondly, Mr. Victorin recommended that the Commission establish a Beach Management Advisory Board to include City staff members and City residents similar to other advisory boards. He stated the Beach Management Advisory Board's mission would be to monitor the beachfront presence, design improvements, create and implement funding to maintain the beachfront in a first class condition to benefit all residents, visitors and tourists. Mr. Victorin stated previously a Beach Area Master Plan Committee was formed but has not been effective since it has had no formal relationship with the City Commission. He stated other communities have boards of this nature in place (i.e. Fort Lauderdale has a formal Beach Redevelopment Advisory Board) and they are now considering a full scale redevelopment of the beach area surrounding Las Olas Boulevard and A-1-A and will cost in excess of$72 million including major construction. 6.B.7. Bob Currie, 72 South Ocean Boulevard, Delray Beach, FL 33483, stated the BPOA designed and paid for the new pavilion sign. Secondly, Mr. Currie stated they are in for a building permit for the two gazebos (one at the north end of the beach and one at the south end of the beach) and are going to reflect the same character as the pavilion. He stated they would like to start construction March 1, 2015. Mr. Currie presented the Commission with a check from the Lattner Family Foundation in the amount of$40,000. 6.B.8. James Quillian, 925 S.E. 2nd Avenue, Delray Beach, FL 33483, stated Delray Beach is losing Police Officers to cities directly to the north or south. He stated these Police Officers know all the problems that are specific to Osceola Park and other areas of the city. Mr. Quillian stated he is hoping that in the near future something can be worked out so that the city does not have the attrition rate that we are experiencing in Delray Beach with the Police Officers. 6.B.9. Gary Wulf, 831 S.E. 4th Avenue, Delray Beach, FL 33483, commented about the condition of the Osceola Park neighborhood and urged the Commission to go to 4th Street where he owns property. Mr. Wulf stated there is a carpet of litter (i.e. beer bottles, etc.) and he suggested to the Planning and Zoning Board that before moving forward with anything that the City clean up Osceola Park. Mr. Wulf stated his property is surrounded by rehab facilities and he has a non-stop 7 days a week parade of drug rehabbers surrounding his property who walk down 4 and 9d' and in the back of his house. He expressed concern over City taxes and stated the City is sending out water bills for$500, $600 and $700 for houses with two people. 6.B.10. Mitzi Kaitz, 331 N.E. 8tb Avenue, Delray Beach, FL 33483, briefly spoke about two historic houses that through their raising fell apart and stated through the Hudson Holding project seven (7) historic houses are supposed to be moved and hopes that it does not become convenient that those house fall apart. Secondly, Ms. Kaitz commented about the consultant services for the Solid Waste and Recycling Collection Services agreement and she expressed concern that $20,000 is a lot of money the City is spending to get this project done. 5 11/04/14 f Mr. Jacquet stated he appreciates Mr. Wulf s concern about the Osceola Park neighborhood and wanting to help join the fight in cleaning up the neighborhoods. Mr. Jacquet suggested that Mr. Wulf speak to James Quillian and Gail-Lee McDermott who live in that community as well as he does and stated this neighborhood is not accessible the way Mr. Wulf has portrayed it. Mr. Jacquet stated it is the most vibrant neighborhoods and the Police have been able to clean up very well. 7. AGENDA APPROVAL.

REGULAR AGENDA: 9.A. _WAIVER REQUEST/SPODAK DENTAL GROUP: Consider approval of a waiver request to Land Development Regulations (LDR) Section 4.6.7(E)(7), "Design Standard Matrix", to allow the installation of a monument sign to be placed in the bio swale area for Spodak Dental Group located at 3 911 West Atlantic Avenue. (Quasi-Judicial Hearing) Mayor Glickstein read the City of Delray Beach Quasi-Judicial rules into the record for this item and all subsequent Quasi-Judicial items. Chevelle D. Nubin, City Clerk, swore in those individuals who wished to give testimony on this item. Mayor Glickstein asked the City Commission to disclose their ex parte communications. Mr. Frankel stated he is a patient of Dr. Spodak and heard about this project. Deputy Vice Mayor stated she too is a patient of Dr. Spodak and previously sat on the Planning and Zoning Board with him, and she also heard about this project. Mayor Glickstein stated he spoke with Dr. Spodak. Vice Mayor Petrolia stated she has not spoken to Dr. Spodak about this. Mr. Jacquet stated he is also a patient of Dr. Spodak's and briefly spoke to him about this issue. Lula Butler, Director of Community Improvement, stated this item is consideration of approval by the City Commission to allow the installation of a monument sign to be placed in the bio Swale area for Spodak Dental Group located at 3911 West Atlantic Avenue. Ms. Butler stated this case was before the City Commission in October 2013 after having gone to SPRAB in September 2013. The City Commission awarded five (5) waivers to this project based on the investment that this company has made into being a LEED certified buildings. Ms. Butler stated the applicant represented at the time that he was not going to be able to put a monument sign in the bio swale area. She stated when heading west on West Atlantic Avenue because of the linear foot of the building and the way you approach it you cannot see it until you get right up close on it. Ms. Butler stated in the applicant's opinion it has created some dangerous situations because people stop real quick trying to turn in. She stated the monument sign could have been approved administratively because it is eligible under 4.6.7(E)(7); however, because of policy implications staff felt it was more appropriate for the Commission to affirm staff recommendation before taking final action and because the Commission was the approving body that granted the waiver to accept the justifications from the applicant. Staff recommends approval of the installation of the monument sign. 10 11/04/14 Dr. Spodak,Anplicant, 904 N.E. 2nd Avenue, Delray Beach, FL 33444, stated he did not anticipate the size of the vegetation and how fast it would grow but as you approach from the west to the east the building comes up upon you very quickly; it is a larger building but a smaller frontage. Dr. Spodak stated they have received numerous complaints from patients that they are having trouble finding the building and when they do find the building, it comes up on them so quickly that they have to merge over and there is no dedicated turn so it creates a hazardous situation. Dr. Spodak stated they are able now to rearrange their bio-swale now that they have received their LEED gold certification. There was no rebuttal or cross-examination Mayor Glickstein asked if anyone from the public would like to speak in favor or in opposition of the waiver request, to come forward at this time. There being no one from the public who wished to address the Commission, the public comment was closed. Deputy Vice Mayor Jarjura supports this and stated this is a project that we should encourage other developers to emulate; she stated this is a phenomenally designed and a great investment in the city by a local business and local community leader. Deputy Vice Mayor Jadura stated she agrees with Dr. Spodak that it is easy to miss the turn and people cross over three lanes to do the immediate U-turn. Vice Mayor Petrolia asked if any of waivers previously given to the other signage as a result of this. Ms. Butler stated the fact that Dr. Spodak could not at the time put his free standing sign there is one of the justifications; however, Ms. Butler stated there were a number of things as it relates to the way the building is structured and the visibility(to be able to see it before you get to it). Mr. Jacquet stated he is in support of the waiver request. The City Attorney briefly reviewed the Board Order with the Commission who made findings according to their consensus (attached hereto is a copy and made an official part of the minutes). Mr. Frankel moved to approve the Board Order, seconded by Mr. Jacquet. Upon roll call the Commission voted as follows: Mr. Frankel —Yes; Deputy Vice Mayor Jarjura — Yes; Mayor Glickstein — Yes; Vice Mayor Petrolia — Yes; Mr. Jacquet Yes.

The City Attorney stated the RFP was published October 6, 2014 and vendor questions were required by October 22, 2014. The City received questions from the following six (6) vendors: (1) Progressive Waste Solutions, (2) Waste Pro of Florida, Inc., (3) Advanced Disposal Services Solid Waste Southeast, Inc., (4) Southern Waste System. (SWS), (5) Republic Service of Palm Beach, and (6) Waste Management of Florida, Inc. The City Attorney stated all submitted questions and detailed responses were provided by the end of last week and posted on the web. The City Attorney stated some of the questions raised legitimate issues and the City issued a third addendum that made some minor changes to both the RFP and Franchise Agreement in response to some of the vendor questions. The City Attorney stated the proposals are due Friday, November 7, 2014 and at that date the Cone of Silence will go into effect. The City Attorney stated the City Manager and the City Attorney's office would like to continue to have available Mr. Dee as we go through vendor selection and in the event there are any unforeseen issues. The City Attorney stated it is important that Mr. Dee be available as we go to vendor selection and as staff goes through a complex RFP and an important vendor selection. The City Attorney stated whatever additional fess Mr. Dee would incur would be substantially less than what he is requesting. Mr. Frankel asked how much Mr. Dee has been paid to date. The City Attorney stated $25,000. Mr. Frankel asked how much the other group was paid. The City Attorney stated Bill Redman had a similar budget and does not believe he has reached his budget cap and he is doing very little if any services from this point. Deputy Vice Mayor Jarjura asked if this is one of the City's largest contracts. The Interim City Manager stated this is one of the City's largest contracts for multi-years and it is the expenditure of tens of millions of dollars on the part of the citizens of the city. Deputy Vice Mayor Jarjura stated normally she would concur with Commissioner Frankel's concerns and the residents' concerns that the city should have the capabilities to handle this in-house given the magnitude of this contract, the issues that the city had previously and the fact that we just now getting the Purchasing Officer started, she feels it is a very specific field and it is important to have an expert on board. Deputy Vice Mayor stated she hopes that the city does not reach the $20,000.00 but having Mr. Dee here as a consultant to guide everyone but not to be relying on him in terms of major work product. Deputy Vice Mayor Jarjura asked if Mr. Dee will be involved in any bid protest or will the city handle in-house. 13 11/04/14 The City Attorney stated he believes the city has the capacity to handle most of the protest work in house. The City Attorney stated his expectation would be unless it overwhelms the resources in his office he would expect to handle it. The Interim City Manager stated the idea is to have the expertise to do as much upfront to avoid having bid protests; it does not mean it keeps it from happening but it levels the playing field more in the city's favor. Deputy Vice Mayor Jarjura moved to approve the Consultant Services Agreement with Mr. David Dee in the amount not to exceed $20,000, seconded by Mr. Frankel. Upon roll call the Commission voted as follows: Mayor Glickstein—Yes; Vice Mayor Petrolia—Yes; Mr. Jacquet Yes; Mr. Frankel—Yes; Deputy Vice Mayor Jazjura —Yes. Said motion passed with a 5 to 0 vote. At this point,the time being 7:08 p.m., the Commission moved to the duly advertised Public Hearings portion of the Agenda. 10. PUBLIC HEARINGS: 10.A. AMENDED AND RESTATED DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT REGARDING ATLANTIC CROSSING AND RELEASE HOLD HARMLESS AND INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT: Consider approval of an Amended and Restated Development Agreement ("Amended Agreement") consistent with the January 2014 site plan approved by the City Commission and the Atlantic Crossing Conditional Use and Class V Site Plan Approval Staff Letter dated February 12, 2014. (At the direction of the City Commission this item has been deferred for further review. Since this matter was previously advertised for action on November 4, 2014, this courtesy notice is included in the agenda.) 10.B. ORDINANCE NO. 33-14 (FIRST READING/FIRST PUBLIC HEARING): Imposing a temporary moratorium on the operation of medical marijuana treatment centers and dispensing organizations within the city for a period of one (1) year. If passed, a second public hearing will be held on November 18, 2014. The caption of Ordinance No. 33-14 is as follows: AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF DELRAY BEACH, FLORIDA, IMPOSING A TEMPORARY MORATORIUM ON THE OPERATION OF MEDICAL MARIJUANA TREATMENT CENTERS AND DISPENSING ORGANIZATIONS WITHIN THE CITY FOR A PERIOD OF ONE (1) YEAR; PROVIDING FOR SEVERABILITY; PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE. i 14 11/04/14 (The official copy of Ordinance No. 33-14 is on file in the City Clerk's j office.) The City Attorney read the caption of the ordinance. A public hearing was held having been legally advertised in compliance with the laws of the State of Florida and the Charter of the City of Delray Beach, Florida. i The City Attorney stated this ordinance imposes a moratorium with respect to Amendment Two which is on today's ballot and also with respect to the compassionate medical marijuana which was passed in the 2014 legislative session. The City Attorney stated the basis for the moratorium is that the legal sale of marijuana would permit land to be used in a way that has historically been prohibited by law. He stated this ordinance would propose a one year moratorium to allow the city to review and determine the proper zoning and land development regulations for this potential new use. The City Attorney stated if Amendment Two passes tonight on the ballot he would anticipate that rules with respect to its sale and cultivation would likely be adopted by the legislature during the 2015 session and typically there is an effective date of July 1St. The City Attorney stated because the City Commission is going to deal with the subject matter of medical sales of marijuana he included the compassionate marijuana laws so they could address the subject matter as a single matter. The City Attorney stated if the referendum were not to pass this evening, then he would not recommend at second hearing that the City Commission consider enacting a moratorium. Mayor Glickstein declared the public hearing open. There being no one from the public who wished to address the Commission regarding Ordinance No. 33-14, the public hearing was closed. The City Attorney stated when he first considered this he did not know whether or not to do a moratorium or to get with Dana Little to discuss with him the appropriate zoning districts and the land development regulations with respect to someone who chooses to cultivate, dispense, and offer this for sale. The City Attorney stated if the Commission chooses to allow it what zoning districts is it appropriate to allow for cultivation and sale versus what zoning districts and what land development regulations are appropriate to prohibit its use. The City Attorney stated this moratorium is not at all to encroach should it pass tonight the ability to enact laws to allow for it to legally be dispensed for medical reasons. Mr. Jacquet stated should this ordinance pass tonight and people across the state within a year have the right to do whatever that business is that the amendment allows would they have that same right in the City of Delray. The City Attorney stated they would have the right but like any other business they would have to satisfy the applicable land development regulations and zoning regulations. The City Attorney stated during the pendency of this moratorium it could not be done notwithstanding the moratorium the earliest anyone could do this would be July 1, 2015. 15 11/04/14 The City Attorney stated if this were to pass tonight well before next July there would be conversation between the City Attorney's Office and Mr. Little to come up with a set of recommendations for the City Commission as to what might be the appropriate response. Brief discussion continued between the City Attorney and Mr. Jacquet. Mr. Jacquet stated he understands why the city needs to look into this moratorium because of safety, health issues, and regulation reasons within the city. However, Mr. Jacquet expressed concern over the process. Mr. Jacquet stated tonight is a huge election across the state and this is a huge ballot issue on the ballot and the City Commission Chambers is empty. The City Attorney stated the reason he prefers to have this done as soon as possible is so that there are not placeholder businesses in anticipation of the outcome. Vice Mayor Petrolia moved to approve Ordinance No. 33-14 on First Reading/First Public Hearing, seconded by Deputy Vice Mayor Jarjura. Upon roll call the Commission voted as follows: Vice Mayor Petrolia — Yes; Mr. Jacquet — No; Mr. Frankel —No; Deputy Vice Mayor Joura— Yes; Mayor Glickstein— Yes.

Jack Warner, Chief Financial Officer, stated this is the first of the four remaining Code Sections 36.03(B) items and these are on the regular agenda because when this agenda was put together the policy was to have all piggyback contracts on the regular agenda. Mr. Warner stated that policy has since been changed and therefore going forward the City Commission will see all of these items on the Consent Agenda. He stated these are a series of individual contracts and as each of the copier contracts comes up for renewal staff looks at the specifications of the machine and what is the best price. Mr. Warner stated it is not that there is a decision at the beginning of the year but rather than the cumulation of the individual decisions that are made over the course of the year add up to more than $25,000. 16 11/04/14 i Deputy Vice Mayor Jarjura moved to approve prior approval of fiscal year 2015 spending greater than $25,000 with Konica Minolta Business Solutions, seconded by Mr. Frankel.

Mr. Warner confirmed that it is. Deputy Vice Mayor Jarjura stated she would like to make sure that the City is ensuring proper oversight of the individual purchases at Office Depot, Home Depot, etc. Vice Mayor Petrolia asked if there is still the same number of credit cards. In response, Mr. Warner stated staff is part way through the review process and have not completed the final review. Mr. Warner stated he does not expect there to be a large change. The Interim City Manager stated every card that they have that has been dispensed staff has required each department for an updated justification for why a particular employee must have access to the card. The Interim City Manager stated staff will review the justification and make a determination as to whether or not it makes sense for certain employees to have a card.

ORDINANCE NO. 34-14: Consider an amendment to Chapter 32, "Departments, Boards and Commissions", of the Code of Ordinances; amending the rules for removal for members of City boards; amending Section 32.15, "Definitions", amending Section 32.17, "Grounds for Removal"; and by repealing Section 32.19, "Vote Necessary for Removal" in its entirety. If passed, a public hearing will be held on November 18, 2014.

The City Attorney read the caption of the ordinance and the City Commission directed staff to revise the ordinance with respect to the process for potential removal of board members. The City Attorney stated when this last came before the City Commission it had removal at the discretion of the board and they felt it was too broad. Therefore, the City Attorney stated in this ordinance he added a definition for "removal for conduct unbecoming." He stated this is a standard that is used by other governments and other employers. The City Attorney stated it has been defined to mean "any conduct by a board member which in the opinion of the City Commission is inappropriate or unsuitable and which has a tendency to adversely affect, lower, or destroy City Commission respect or confidence and the ability of the member to perform his or her duties as a member of the city board or conduct which brings disrepute or discredit to the board." The City Attorney stated he left in all the other standards that were in the prior ordinance; however, he added this language to capture other types of conduct. Deputy Vice Mayor Jarjura stated for abandonment of office it is failure to attend three (3) consecutive regular meetings of a city and a lot of other municipalities have three (3) consecutive regular meetings or accumulative of four (4) or five (5) meetings. She stated if someone is missing four (4) meetings out of a twelve (12) month period whether or not they are consecutive, then that individual should not be on that board anymore. The City Attorney suggested that the City Commission make a motion "to approve as amended" and he can include this language in the next draft. Brief discussion followed by the City Commission. After brief discussion, it was the consensus of the City Commission that failure of a City Board member to attend three (3) consecutive regular meetings or any j five(5)regular meetings over the course of a year are subject to automatic termination. 20 11/04/14 The City Attorney stated it would an automatic termination; however, nothing would prohibit the City Commission if they chose to reappoint that person if there were extenuating circumstances (i.e. health).
