SUBJECT: Road CrossinQ Aareements with FEC for SE 1st and NE 1st Streets
Florida East Coast Railway has forwarded agreements to the City for the road
crossings located at SE 1st and NE 1st Streets. FEC has requested that the City
execute these revised agreements prior to FEC reconstructing the road crossings
on these streets to allow for the conversion from the one way pairs. When we
received these agreements from FEC we made comments on quite a few of the
provisions in the agreements and forwarded those to FEC. FEC responded by
agreeing to make a couple of minor changes. The main issue regarding these
agreements is that FEC wants the City to indemnify and defend FEC for all claims
or lawsuits that may be brought against FEC as a result of the crossing, even
including such claims and lawsuits that result from the negligence of FEC.
A recent Florida Supreme Court case hel that if a municipality agrees to
indemnify another party, in a contract, then so ereign immunity limits do not apply.
Please place this item on the April 11, 2006 ity Commission Workshop agenda.
Please call if you have any questions.

Comments
Dear Leslie:
I forwarded the above two agreements you sent me to our City Attorney for review and
comment. Please address each of the fallowing comments:
Par 2: Why is the City responsible for vegetation management with no limitations? Why
not just limit the City's responsibilify to the road rights-of-way?
Par 3: If the crossing will have four quadrant grates there is no need to maintain
vegetation for 325 feet north and south of crossing.
Par 6: The City should be given notice and the right to correct.
Par 7: City will grant appropriate permits when application is made and City
requirements are mel
9 We can not do this.
Par 9: Provide current annual cost of maintenance.
Par 11 :There should be some basis for FEC to make any changes at the crossing and
any change should be agreed upon by the City prior to implementation of
change.
Par 13: Need to be more specific, the req uirements of the City and Florida Department of
Transportation, for example are not the same. City does not maintain FOOT
lighting standards on City streets.
Par 14:Need a limitation on the liability of FEC on this. City should not be required to
obtain FEC approval to construct improvements not in FEe rights-of-way.

DELRAY BEACH: CROSSING MATTERS
LICENSE AGREEMENT REVISIONS
Mr. Randal L. Krejcarek, P.E.
City Engineer
City of Delray Beach
434 South Swinton Avenue
Delray Beach, Florida 33444
," ".
Dear Mr. Krejcarek:
We are in receipt of your letter dated October 13,2005, and offer the following comments regarding
the agreement language:
Par 2. We will add language to reference the vegetation requirements in paragraph 3. Paragraph 2
will read "RAIL WAY reserves the right to perform all work required on RAIL WAY'S
property including construction, drainage, lighting and vegetation as set forth in paragraph 3
hereof."
Par 3. We do not have four quadrant gates on our Railway at this time, however this requirement
would stiU be necessary to maintain a clear site distance in the event the gates did not work.
Par 6. Will revise to read "in the event the CITY shall fail to comply with any of the covenants and
conditions and fails to correct such non-compliance within 30 days after notice thereofby
RAIL WAY. then at the option of the RAIL WAY ~
Par 7. Currently the RAIL WAY is not required to obtain permits from the City as we are under
Federal jurisdiction. This paragraph is only in place in the event this changes in the future.
Par 8. This is standard verbiage for all crossing agreements.
Par 9. See Exhibit "c" included with the agreement. This cost is regulated by the FDOT and is
revised every 5 years. This crossing is a Class IiI installation as referenced in paragraph 9,
therefore the ann~l maintenance cost is $2,820.00.
Par 11 This is standard pracvce for all crossings. The Railway as the owner of the property can
make necessary changes to our track or right-of-way.
Par 13 We will revise to read" Lighting facilities adequate to comply with the requirements of
applicable local and/or state laws and regulations covering illumination of road crossings
shall be installed, maintained and replaced at or near the CROSSING SITE by and at the
sole cost of the City."

Mr. Randall Krejcarek
Par 14 We will add language to read "Facilities at or near the CROSSING SITE and on the
RAIL WAY'S right-of-way that are not specifically covered. by this Agreement, including
but not limited to pedestrian walkways, may not be constructed by CITY at or near the
CROSSING SITE and on the RAIL WAY'S right-of-way, without prior written approval"
Par 15 This paragraph covers the situation where the Railway is performing work that the City is
required to do but the Railway is doing at ~e City's request. In that circwnstance, the City
should be responsible for the entire risk. ';
Par 16 Same as above.
Par 17 This is standard practice for all crossings. The cost will be actual cost of removal based. on
construction prices at that time.
Par 18 The improvements mentioned in this paragraph would be in place due to the existence ofllie
crossing therefore the City would be responsible.
Par 20 The Railway does not benefit from the existence of the crossing. The crossing escalates the
Railway's liability and creates a maintenance problem. This paragraph must remain as is.
Should you need to further discuss this matter, I can be reached at (904) 826-2383.
Sincerely,
<::j -r- ;i p

2. The CROSSING SITE includes any railroad crossing warning signs, crossing
surfaces and automatic crossing warning devices which are, or might be, located within or
adjacent to the above-described location, provided that, the construction ofthe CROSSING SITE
shall be done by RAIL WAY as provided in this License Agreement ("Agreement") and further
provided that, notwithstanding rights to the CITY granted herein, RAIL WAY reserves the right
to perform all work required on RAIL WAY'S property including construction, drainage, lighting
and vegetation management, in which event CITY shall pay the RAIL WAY the entire cost and
expense of labor, materials and equipment furnished by RAILWAY in performing such work.
The status of the CITY is that of a licensee and not lessee, granting the CITY the right to use the
CROSSING SITE as specified herein.
3. The CROSSING SITE shall be used for public at-grade road crossing purposes only
and no utility, including telecommunications facilities, pipes, wires, cables; or other line or
structure shall be placed in, on or over the CROSSING SITE without the previous consent in
writing of the RAILWAY. CITY further agrees that it will at all times keep the CROSSING
SITE, together with the additional portions of the RAIL WAY'S right-of-way within 325 feet of
the northerly and southerly limits or boundaries of the CROSSING SITE clear of any vegetation
or other growth greater than two (2) feet in height on each side of the tracks at the sole expense
of the CITY and without cost to RAILWAY or lien upon RAILWAY'S property.
4. This Agreement is for an initial term of one (I) year and shall continue in effect
thereafter from year to year, subject to termination by the RAIL WAY or CITY upon sixty (60)
days prior written notice.
5. CITY shall pay an annual license fee in advance to RAILWAY of $4,500.00 (Four
Thousand Five Hundred Dollars), for use of the Crossing. The license fee shall be increased
XFrm0499
Page 2
each year on the anniversary date of this Agreement, commencing on the anniversary date of the
second year of this Agreement, by the product of the annual license fee in effect for the
preceding year multiplied by one hundred percent (100%) of the percentage increase, if any, in
the Consumer Price Index, (1967=100), issued by the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the U.S.
Department of Labor ("Cpr'), or 3%, whichever is greater. The base CPI will be the CPI for the
month of the year preceding the applicable anniversary date of this Agreement by ninety (90)
days. No adjustment will be made for decreases in the CPI.
6. The provisions and stipulations of this Agreement are a part of the consideration ofthe
licensing of the CROSSING SITE, and in the event the CITY shall fail to comply with any of the
covenants and conditions, then, at the option of the RAILWAY, this Agreement shall be
terminated with full legal rights and remedies retained by the RAIL WAY, including but not
limited to the right to reenter, repossess, and remove the crossing if it shall elect to do so.
7. The CITY shall grant forthwith to the RAILWAY necessary permits for the
installation, construction, erection, repair and maintenance of any of the RAILWAY -owned or
maintained facilities described in this Agreement. If the CITY fails to promptly grant the
RAILWAY necessary permits, CITY shall bear all additional expense incurred by the
RAIL WAY attributable to such failure, including costs due to slow ordering of trains. CITY
shall promptly pay such amounts upon billing by the RAIL WAY.
8. Unless otherwise specified, the cost of and liability for installation, construction,
maintenance, replacement and removal of all facilities at the CROSSING SITE, including but
not limited to the crossing structure, railroad and highway devices, and grade crossing surfaces,
whether performed by the CITY or RAIL WAY, shall be the sole responsibility of the CITY.
XFrm0499
Page 3
9. The RAIL WAY shall install the warning devices, including the fixed signs, flashing
lights, bells and gates (collectively the "WARNING DEVICES"), at the CROSSING SITE at the
sole cost of the CITY. The WARNING DEVICES are a Type III Class III installation as defined
in the Florida Department of Transportation Schedule of Signal Installations by Type and Class
attached hereto as Exhibit C. Installation costs are estimated to be $194,920.00 as shown on the
estimates for signal installation attached hereto as Exhibit B and incorporated by reference.
In addition, CITY shall pay unto RAILWAY annually the annual cost of maintenance of
said WARNING DEVICES as provided in the Florida Department of Transportation's
SCHEDULE OF ANNUAL COST OF AUTOMATIC HIGHWAY GRADE CROSSING
TRAFFIC CONTROL DEVICES, as may in the future be revised or amended, a copy of which
is attached hereto as Exhibit C and incorporated herein by reference.
The WARNING DEVICES will be owned by the RAILWAY and shall remain at the
CROSSING SITE until the RAILWAY decides that they are no longer needed or should be
replaced, or until other legal requirements are imposed which shall eliminate or substantially
change their operations.
10. The RAILWAY shall replace the existing 64' wide Type T-modified grade crossing
structure with a 56.9' wide Omni concrete grade crossing surface (the "SURFACE') along with
other improvements as shown on the drawing, attached hereto as part of Exhibit A, in accordance
with Florida Department of Transportation Standard Specifications for Road and Bridge
Construction, Index No. 560, as may be amended, at the sole cost of CITY. Installation costs are
estimated to be $93,808.00 as shown on the estimates for crossing installation attached hereto as
Exhibit B and incorporated by reference. When the RAILWAY determines that the replacement
of the new SURFACE is more economical than its continued maintenance, the RAILWAY shall
XFrm0499
Page 4
have the exclusive option to replace the SURF ACE with a comparable or improved structure.
The replacement costs of the new SURFACE shall be the sole responsibility of the CITY. The
CITY shall, at its sole expense, maintain and replace the remainder of the road inside the
RAILWAY'S right-of-way, plus any paving which may be located between the ends of the ties.
If such work is required due to replacement of the SURFACE, the CITY shall perform such
work in accordance with the time and operational requirements of RAIL WAY. The CITY will
give prior notice to RAILWAY of all work to be performed by it at or near the CROSSING SITE
and no such work shall be performed by CITY without the prior approval of RAILWAY. All
work performed by the CITY shall be conducted at such times and in such manner as to not
interfere or impeded the operations of RAIL WAY. The RAILWAY shall provide a construction
watchman at said CROSSING SITE while work is being performed by the CITY under the
provisions of this Agreement, at the sole expense of the CITY.
11. The CITY agrees, acknowledges and understands that the RAIL WAY reserves the
right to make any changes at any future time in its existing tracks or other facilities, including the
installation, maintenance and operation of any additional track or tracks or other facilities on its
right-of-way at the CROSSING SITE. The CITY agrees to bear the total expense of any changes
or additions to the pavement and traffic signal devices, the SURF ACE, the WARNING
DEVICES or other railroad signalization equipment or new structure at the CROSSING SITE,
whether these changes or additions are required by law or order of any public or judicial
authority, done voluntarily by the RAIL WAY, or requested by the CITY.
12. The CITY agrees that it will install, maintain and replace all necessary drainage
facilities to prevent the accumulation of surface water due to the existence of the CROSSING
SITE. Such facilities must first be approved by the RAIL WAY and any governing bodies having
XFrm0499
Page 5
jurisdiction thereof and operation of the facilities shall also be subject at all time to their
approval. An additional license agreement may be required by the RAILWAY, depending upon
the location of such drainage facilities and type, size, depth and other specifications of the
proposed facilities, as submitted to the RAILWAY.
13. Lighting facilities adequate to comply with the requirements of the laws of the State
of Florida covering illumination of road crossing shall be installed, maintained and replaced at or
near this CROSSING SITE by and at the sole cost of CITY.
14. Facilities at or near the CROSSING SITE that are not specifically covered by this
Agreement, including but not limited to pedestrian walkways, may not be constructed by CITY
at or near the CROSSING SITE without the prior written approval of RAILWAY, which
approval is in RAIL WAY'S sole discretion. The cost and liability for such facilities, including
but not limited to claims for personal injury or death or damage to property of any person or
persons whomsoever, shall be the sole responsibility of City.
15. If at any time RAILWAY, at CITY'S request, performs work required to be
performed by CITY hereunder, the cost and liability for such work, including but not limited to
claims for personal injury or death or damage to property of any person of persons whomsoever,
shall be the sole responsibility of CITY.
16. The CITY further covenants to pay the RAILWAY, within thirty (30) days after
presentation of the same, all bills submitted by Railway including maintenance bills as set forth
in Paragraph 9 above and all bills for electricity for the lighting and illumination of the
CROSSING SITE if same are provided by Railway.
17. At the termination of this Agreement for any cause, or upon termination of the
CITY'S use of the CROSSING SITE as herein described, all rights of the CITY shall terminate
XFrm0499
Page 6
and the CITY shall remove, under the RAILWAY'S supervision and direction, at CITY'S entire
cost and expense, said road and all non-RAILWAY-owned improvements placed upon the
RAILWAY'S right-of-way and restore the ground to its original condition.
18. The CITY shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless RAILWAY for assessments or
other charges of any kind whatsoever against the RAILWAY at any time for any portion of
public improvements installed on or within two hundred (200) feet of the CROSSING SITE
arising out of the existence of the CROSSING SITE.
19. The CITY shall not in any way, or at any time, interfere with or obstruct
RAILWAY'S right-of-way, the movement of RAILWAY'S trains and other railroad operations,
or interfere with the RAILWAY'S use thereof, or the use thereof by RAILWAY'S assIgns,
invitees, lessees or licensees.
20. The CITY shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless RAILWAY it's affiliates,
officers, directors and employees from any and all suits, claims, liability, losses, damages,
expenses and costs (including reasonable attorneys fees) incurred by or asserted against
RAILWAY whether for personal injury or death or damage to property of any person or persons
whomsoever, relating to, resulting from or arising out of the construction, installation,
maintenance or replacement of the CROSSING SITE by RAILWAY, the performance of work
by RAIL WAY required to be performed by CITY hereunder, or the use of the CROSSING SITE
or CITY facilities, including but not limited to pedestrian walkways, at or near the CROSSING
SITE and regardless of whether such injury or damage is caused or alleged to be caused, in
whole or in part, by the negligence of RAIL WAY. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the CITY
shall have no indemnification obligation for the intentional, wrongful acts of RAILWAY.
XFrm0499
Page 7
The CITY will include in any contract which it may let for the whole or part of any
work to be performed hereunder by or for the CITY, each and every one of the terms and
conditions included on the document entitled "INDEMNITY OF FLORIDA EAST COAST
RAILWAY, L.L.c. AND INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS" attached hereto and made a part
hereof as Exhibit D.
21. ( a) CITY, at its own cost and expense, when performing any work in connection with
the CROSSING SITE shall request RAILWAY to furnish any necessary construction watchmen
for the protection of RAIL WAY'S employees, property and train operations. RAIL WAY shall
be notified at least one (1) week in advance of the performance of any work in connection with
the CROSSING SITE.
(b) In addition to, but not in limitation of any of the foregoing provisions, if at any
time RAILWAY should deem it necessary to place construction watchmen for the protection of
any person or property, during the construction, maintenance, repair, alteration, renewal, or
removal at the CROSSING SITE, RAILWAY shall have the right to place such construction
watchmen, or other persons at the sole cost and expense of the CITY. Upon receipt of a bill
from RAILWAY, CITY shall promptly pay RAILWAY the full cost and expense of such
construction watchmen. The furnishing or failure to furnish construction watchmen, or other
persons by the RAILWAY under this paragraph, however, shall not release CITY from any and
all other liabilities assumed by CITY under the terms of this Agreement, including its obligations
under Paragraph 20 hereof. The CITY shall give the RAILWAY one (1) week's advance written
notice when it or its contractor or anyone claiming under this Agreement proposes to enter upon
the CROSSING SITE to perform work under this Agreement in order that proper warning may
be provided for trains. In emergency situations CITY shall give the RAIL WAY telephonic
XFrm0499
Page 8
notice. The CITY further agrees that at all times its personnel or agents are on the property of
the RAILWAY, they will be accompanied by a RAILWAY representative and any cost involved
will be borne by the CITY.
22. After the SURFACE and WARNING DEVICES have been installed and all other
work to be performed by the RAILWAY under this Agreement has been completed and found to
be in satisfactory working order by the RAIL WAY, the RAILWAY shall furnish to the CITY an
invoice showing the final total cost of material, labor and equipment furnished by the
RAILWAY, in accordance with the estimate of said cost to the CITY to be $288,728.00 set forth
in Exhibit B and CITY shall pay such invoice no later than thirty (30) days from the date thereof.
23. Installation, maintenance and replacement of any and all railroad advance warning
signs and pavement markings on any road approaching the CROSSING SITE shall be the sole
responsibility and cost of the CITY, and at its sole expense.
24. The CITY shall promptly pay RAILWAY all charges for replacement, repair or
otherwise of the CROSSING SURFACE and RAILROAD DEVICES within thirty (30) days of
the date of invoice. Failure to promptly pay to RAILWAY amounts billed as due under this

6.0 FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS
We have performed a Phase I Environmental Property Assessment in limited accordance with the scope and
limitations of ASTM Practice E-1527 of the above referenced site, the property. Any additions, exceptions to, or
deletions from, this practice are described in Section 2.0 of this report. This assessment has revealed no evidence of
recognized environmental conditions in connection with the property except for the following:
Based on a review of the information collected in this investigation, it is NEF's understanding the East Parcel of the
subject property was historically developed prior to 1922 with a residential building. An auto repair building was
constructed on the East Parcel by 1924. The residential building and auto repair building were demolished prior to
1949 and a building used for vulcanizing was constructed on the subject site. According to historical city directories
dated 1959, Colony Cleaners and Laundry was located on the East Parcel. A tire servicelbuffing building and a tire
storage building (Pierce Tire Co.) were constructed on the East Parcel prior to 1963. An additional building was
constructed on the East Parcel in the mid 1960's. The subject site remained relatively the same until Loomis Brake &
Front End was located on the East Parcel in the early 1990's. The buildings on the East Parcel were demolished and
the East Parcel was developed with an asphalt paved parking lot in 1995. The East Parcel has remained relatively the
same from 1995 to the present date.
Based on a review of the information collected in this investigation, it is NEF's understanding the West Parcel of the
subject property was historically developed prior to 1922 with a small building. Delray Lumber Co. occupied the
subject site prior to 1924. The site consisted of a Lumber Shed, Sash, Door & Blinds building, automotive garage
building, a store building and two lumber storage areas. The lumber shed and storage area in the northeast portion of
the West Parcel was expanded and a cement warehouse, paint building and oil house were constructed on the West
Parcel prior to 1949. Renuart Bailey, Cheely Lumber and Supply Co. was located on the West Parcel of the subject
site prior to 1963 until 1966 when Sarber Lumber Co. was located on the West Parcel. Additional lumber sheds were
constructed and the oil house was demolished prior to 1963. An Upholstery Shop was located on the West Parcel in
1968. A Goodwill Auto Parts store was located on the west parcel in 1970. A Goodwill store was located on the
subject site prior to 1973 until 1984. A beauty salon was located on the West Parcel between 1985 and 1989. The
southeast lumber shed was demolished prior to 1989. The buildings on the north portion of the West Parcel were
demolished prior to 1993. An appliance repair shop, alterations shop and telecommunications shop were located on
the West Parcel between 1991 and 1994. The southwest buildings were demolished and the West Parcel was
developed with an asphalt paved parking lot in the late 1990's. The West Parcel has remained relatively the same
from the late 1990's to the present date.
Historical Uses on the Subject Site
A building labeled "Vulcanizing" was mapped on the East Parcel in the 1949 Sanborn Fire Insurance Map.
Vulcanization is the process of curing natural rubber by adding sulfur or other additives under the influence of heat and
pressure. In addition, the subject property has historically been occupied by automotive repair facilities.
The subject site was historically occupied by lumber companies from the early 1920's until the early 1960's. The
following three chemicals have commonly been used historically in wood preservation: pentachlorophenol (PCP) and
creosote (both oil-borne organics), in addition to arsenicals (water-borne in organics) consisting primarily of copper
chromium arsenate (CCA). Most wood preservation processes involve pressure treatment or impregnating wood with
chemicals that protect the wood from biological deterioration and against insect and fungal attack. Some wood species
can be treated by non-pressure processes such as thermal treatment. However, this process can only be used with
oil-borne preservatives.
In the first half of the twentieth century, creosote, a by-product of coal-tar pitch was the dominant preservative used for
railroad and bridge ties and utilitY poles. The primary pollutants of concern from creosote are polycyclic aromatic
hydrocarbons. By 1970, PCP which is manufactured from two basic commodity chemicals, phenols and chlorine was
used to treat approximately 50% of utility poles.

. NUTTING
E ~~~!5~NMENTAL

In the 1960s CCA began competing with other wood preservatives. By 1995, CCA use accounted for approximately
80% of wood preservation use. CCA is composed of the oxides or salts of chromium, copper and arsenic. The copper
in the wood serves as the fungicide whereas the arsenic protects the wood against insects. The chromium fixes the
copper and arsenic to the wood. CCA is primarily used to treat lumber, timber, posts and plywood.
It is possible that releases of wood preserving compounds to the soil and potentially groundwater occurred at the site
over the approximate 40 year period that these facilities occupied the subject site. These releases may have occurred
through potential vessels containing preservative solution, storage and/or transfer of the preservative liquids, leaching
from stockpiled preserved lumber and other related sources.
Given the historical use of the site and the variety of contaminants that have been stored and/or used on the subject
property, it is NEF's opinion there is a low to moderate likelihood soil and/or groundwater on the subject property may
have been impacted by these facilities. NEF recommends that background soil and groundwater quality be evaluated
via the performance of soil borings and the installation of shallow water table monitoring wells. Soil quality should be
evaluated for volatile organic compounds during drilling operations via the collection of soil samples at vertical 2'
intervals for field headspace screening using a portable flame ionization detector. Should elevated OVA readings be
observed, NEF would recommend the collection of a soil sample for laboratory analysis per volatile organics by EPA
Method 8260, semivolatile organics by EPA Method 8270, TRPH using the FL-PRO Method, 13 Priority Pollutant
metals and dioxin scan from the soil sample that exhibits OVA results in excess of 10 ppm.
The groundwater monitoring well should be purged and sampled for analysis for volatile organics by EPA Method
8260, and semivolatile organics by EPA Method 8270, TRPH using the FL-PRO Method, 13 Priority Pollutant metals
and dioxin scan.
Given the above and the long term ~istorical use of the subject property for automotive and light industrial uses, the
potential exists for undocumented, abandoned USTs to be present on the subject site. In many cases undocumented
underground tanks were improperly abandoned (Le., left in place). NEF recommends that a Geophysical Survey be
performed to attempt to locate additional potential underground structures (Le, USTs, septic tanks, and oiVwater
separators, etc.) that may be present on the subject property. NEF may make additional recommendations based on
the Geophysical Survey findings.

This facility was listed in the following databases: UST
Based on a review of information on file with the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP), this facility
formerly maintained one 1,000-gallon underground storage tank (UST) system containing leaded gasoline. No
installation date has been reported for this UST. This UST was reportedly removed in March 1989. According to a
letter on file with ERM dated May 11, 1989, soil contamination was discovered during tank removal activities. A
temporary monitoring well was installed in the tank excavation and sampled for EPA Method 602. Laboratory analysis
of groundwater samples from the temporary monitoring well were reported below groundwater cleanup target levels
(GCTLs). The ERM letter stated that "upon receipt of the sample analyses, proper documentation of soil removal, and
a completed copy of the DER Storage Tank Notification Form, this Department will require no further action relative to
this matter." No additional information regarding this UST was available for review.
In addition, a Sanborn Maps dated between 1922 and 1963 indicated a lumber company was located approximately
100 feet east of the subject property. It is possible that releases of wood preserving compounds to the soil and
potentially groundwater occurred at this facility during the time of operation of the lumber yard. These releases may
have occurred through potential vessels containing preservative solution, storage and/or transfer of the preservative
liquids, leaching from stockpiled preserved lumber and other related soils.
NEF recommends this concern be addressed as part of the above listed scope of work.

transmission antenna.
This Emergency Advisory Radio System is provided by the same vendor currently used by the
City of Boca Raton and the City of Boynton Beadl and both cities are satisfied with the service
and equipment installation by 155. ISS is considered a sole source due to the lack of alternate
vendors offering this type of technology.
ISS tumkey installation includes the transmitter site preparation and the electronics installation.

Subject: Purchase of Low Wattage AM Radio Station
Date: March 24, 2006
We have concluded our research for the purchase of a low wattage radio station for the City of
Delray Beach for use during emergencies and for other administrative purposes, The attached
price quote of $29,490 represents the cost for a "turnkey" primary installation which should be
accomplished before June 1, 2006. A pricing option in the amount of $1,295, is provided for
remote capability to use this system to broadcast the meetings of the City Commission. If the
option is included, the total cost would be $30,785.
The radio station is provided by the same vendor used by the City of Boca Raton and the City
of Boynton Beach. Effectively, this is a sole source product situation due to lack of alternate
vendors which offer this type of technology. The adjacent communities find the technology
satisfactory for similar uses and applications, The hardware configuration contemplates the base
station being installed at Fire-Rescue Headquarters where the primary transmission antenna
would also be installed. The equipment package includes a dismountable antenna, as well as a
spare which would be kept at the Emergency Operations Center for redundancy purposes.
The remote option for broadcast of City Commission meetings also requires the installation
and/or use of a phone line between City Hall and Fire-Rescue Headquarters. We will investigate
the possibility of usage of the fiber link between the two facilities for this purpose as well.
We recommend that this purchase be placed on the City Commission Consent Agenda for
April 4, 2006.

To Whom It Might Concern:
Information Station Specialists, Inc., (ISS) is the sole provider in the United States of the
exclusive ALERT AM@ Emergency Advisory Radio System. Other AM advisory radio systems
being offered are designed for the traffic industry and cannot perform any of the following
important functions:
A Only ALERT AM can change to new message patterns, when the National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Association (NOAA) Weather Radio System or Emergency Alert System (EAS)
sends warnings.
B Only the ALERT AM uses an AM transmitter with a modern synthesized frequency system,
so that should a frequency change ever be necessary, it can be easily done without
component changes or board-level work. This transmitter, the TR.6000, utilizes an efficient
Class D amplifier, comprised of only two driver devices for highest reliability. The TR.6000
Transmitter is the only such unit manufactured and type-accepted for Travelers Information
Station (TIS) applications in the United States.
C Only ALERT AM features a NOAA EAS/weather receiver that is field programmable and
upgradeable, to keep up with changes in NOAA EAS/weather hazards. Only ALERT AM
captures the most recent warning activation for replay by system operators.
D Only ALERT AM allows special broadcast messages to be aired automatically in conjunction
with outdoor warning system activations or Emergency Operations Center control panel
switches.
E Only the ALERT AM system synchronizes "repeater" stations (to create larger coverage
areas) without relying on vulnerable dialed-up telephone links to distribute audio in times of
emergency.
F Only ALERT AM offers flexible installation styles to allow antennas to be located on building
roofs.
G Only ALERT AM's antennas are black in color to discourage ice build-up and are finished
with a special UV-resistant, architectural-anodization process to prevent color fading.
H If installed in adjacent building yards, ALERT AM requires only that a support pole be set.
Not required are large, buried, copper-wire groundplane installation or chemical-emitting
ground-pipe (hollow rods) burial.
Only ALERT AM works in conjunction with solar-powered flashing advisory signs via
communities' UHFNHF Radio Systems to turn on/off beacons remotely. These signs are the
key to notification of the community that an emergency message is being broadcast.
J Only ALERT AM offers a battery backup system capable of keeping the
station on the air for a full 4 days.

ALERT AM@
ElEAGENCY ADVISORY RADIO SYSTEM
Hundreds of communities as well as universities,
airports and government agencies across America
now operate their own "Emergency Advisory Radio
Stations" specifically to tell citizens what to do
during industrial accidents, terror threats, school
incidents, earthquakes, hurricanes, tornados,
flooding and other critical situations. Over
conventional AM radio channels, emergency
managers themselves give listeners repeated, up-
to-the-minute reports, alerts and relevant
instructions, directly - eliminating the need to rely
on mass media.
The ALERT AM Emergency Advisory Radio System
provides emergency managers the ability to
record libraries of messages and quickly create
broadcasts to match anticipated emergency
scenarios. For new situations, via user-friendly
telephone or computer workstation interface, they
can efficiently drop in newly recorded messages.
The ALERT AM System also offers" live" broadcast
capability.
Each fixed ALERT AM station covers a 3-5 mile
radius or about 28-78 square miles. Optional
synchronized repeaters may be added to expand
coverage with audio linked via a wireless network.
ISS can locate and help test available frequencies
as well as assist in acquiring from the Federal
Communication Commission the station's operating
license. The FCC allows noncommercial, public-
safety broadcasting on AM channels 530- 1700
kHz and provides a 9.3-mile protection zone inside
which no other community may operate on the
same frequency.
ALERT AM antennas are generally installed in
association with a host building - either on its
roof or in an adjacent yard. However, IS5

ALERT AM stations pepper America.
.,.
packages accommodate other antenna setups
with indoor and outdoor electronics enclosures
designed and located to minimize site impact and
maximize site aesthetics.
When NOAA's Emergency Alert System issues
specified hazard warnings for counties, the ALERT
AM Emergency Advisory Radio System may be
pre-programmed to immediately broadcast the
alerts relevant to counties that emergency
managers have designated.
During non-emergency times, ALERT AM's ever-
present signal may inform motorists of upcoming
events, street repairs, public notices, daily
weather, city tours and visitor information (non-
commercial content). All the while, broadcasts
remind listeners to tune to the channel when
situations become critical.
Special street signs may be installed in conjunction
with ALERT AM Emergency Advisory Radio
Systems, triggered remotely to flash warning
beacons that tell motorists to tune in immediately.
When the beacons are not flashing, sign text
reminds citizens of the service and the channel.
In addition to Flashing ALERT Signs, the ALERT AM
System offers a variety of options. For example, a
..
-..-
battery backup system allows stations to remain on
the air up to four days during a power outage and
to notify service personnel automatically when
power goes out. Workstation Audio Control allows
convenient message management from a computer.
Due to ALERT AM's modularity and range of options,
agencies can choose to grow a complete system
configuration over time.
Many emergency managers publicize the stations on
their websites and, during initial operation, offer
news releases about the new stations to local media.
An ALERT AM Emergency Advisory Radio System is
an affordable communication service that a
community can control and call its own.
ISS turnkey packages include all hardware, software,
site preparation, installation, licensing and on-site
training, backed by 20+ years of commitment, a
nationwide support network and a promise of
technical support for the life of the product.
In addition to fixed ALERT AM stations, ISS offers
mobile emergency broadcast systems, such as
RoadRunnR and RESPONDER 1, that may be used
alone or in conjunction with ALERT AM stations to
reach remote trouble spots.

Planning Your Station
Much of ALERT AM's success is attributed to the ease
with which the system can be planned and installed.
Below are considerations for setting up an ALERT AM
Emergency Advisory RAdio System in your community.
ISS offers free planning assistance at 616.772.2300.
Step 1 - General Location
On a local map, find the approximate geographic
center of the area to be covered. The ALERT AM
signal will propogate to a radius of three to five miles
from this point in all directions. If this coverage area
will not encompass the desired listening area, consult
ISS about adding synchronized or portable
transmitters to your system.
Step 2, - National Weather Service Reception
Verify reception of a National Weather Service
channel (162.400 to 162.550 MHz) at the desired
location. You can see coverage areas online at the
NOAA weblink http://205.156.54.206/nwr /
usframes.html.
Step 3 - Specific Location
Select a specific building or property near the
geographic center for antenna installation. Building
height may not exceed two stories. Keep in mind there
must be no obstructions taller than the antenna in
close proximity. Consult IS5 on the proposed location,
before the decision is finalized. 15S offers three
antenna installation styles:
1. On any flat, steel-roof building.

.LI.:)
2. In the yard adjacent to a building.
3. At an isolated location with no building.
Steel-Roof Style - equipment in building with antenna
system on roof. Advantages: lowest cost, high security.
Building Requirements: not exceeding 2 stories, non-
office character, flat roof.
Yard Style - equipment in building with antenna
system in adjacent yard. Advantages: low cost, high
security. Installation requirements: an area within 50'
of the building; no underground obstacles or structures
taller than 25' in immediate vicinity.
Isolated Style - equipment and antenna are installed
on a pole. Advantage: high flexibility of location.
Installation requirements: no building required; 120
volts of AC power and telephone service must be
available at the site and that there is a 20'x20' area
of open ground for pole and groundplane installation.
Vertical-Profile Option (may be used with yard or
isolated styles) - antenna mounted in special pole
(provided) with groundplane part of the pole itself.
Advantages: best when antenna cannot be installed on
roof and space in the adjacent yard is at a premium;
minimal ground disturbance. Installation requirements:
pole placement commonly within 50' of a building
(may be greater if required) in grass, dirt or paved
areas; vehicles may park nearby; no objects taller
than 25' within 50'; coaxial cable may be buried or
strung overhead to the support pole; 6" diameter
pole is set in 6' post hole with good earth contact in

.'
the lowest 4' of the hole. (When used on AM
frequencies below 1000 kHz, a 20' solid groundrod is
driven beside the pole.) Concrete, asphalt or tamped
dirt may surround the pole to 2" below grade to
stabilize it.
Step 4 - Frequency
ISS will provide a menu of AM frequencies (that meet
FCC separation standards) from which you may make
your selection and will give you a seasoned
recommendation with suggestions/instructions on how
to test them. Make your choice, and ISS will prepare
and submit the application to the FCC on your behalf,
immediately.
Step 5 - Licensing
Request from ISS a fixed- or portable-station license
questionnaire. It will ask you to supply the antenna
operating area, frequency choice and contact
information. ISS will then formally submit your 10-
year, renewable license application to the FCC, which
typically takes 6 months or more to process. If you
wish to operate your station sooner, on the same
questionnaire, you may request a Special Temporary
Assignment, which ISS can also help you obtain from
the FCC. Please note: stations must be built within 1 2
months of grant of the 1 O-year license.
Step 6 - Options
The 1 4-Minute Recording Time option is best for most
ALERT AM Systems. A 4-Day-Battery-Backup option
keeps the station on the air during AC power loss. If
the station is in an unattended location, the Power
Loss Notification Module is useful. If you need more
coverage than a single station can provide (28-78
square miles), ask ISS about the RealTIME Audio
Synchronization option. If you want to notify motorists
that critical messages are being broadcast, consider
obtaining Flashing ALERT Signs. If you want to control
stations from a computer, yet retain the ability to
override via telephone, consider Workstation Audio
Control, which provides unlimited numbers of
messages and recording time.
Step 7 - Quotes
Request a formal quote from ISS. Provide your name,
agency, phone, fax, email, desired antenna style
(steel-roof, yard or isolated) and options from the
price page of this brochure. Indicate if you would like
turnkey installation or illustrated instructions for
preparing your own transmitter site.
Services
Site Visits
If there is an ALERT AM
representative in your area, there's
no cost for a preliminary visit to
determine the best available
antenna locations and assist with
frequency choice. Ask if this free
service is available in your area. If
not, ISS will help you plan your
station remotely. Call for details.
Licensing Services
Virtually all ALERT AM operators request that ISS
perform the licensing function (1 O-year renewable) -
which includes a frequency search, engineering study,
construction notification and submittal to the FCC -
for one low price. Often licensing is performed in
advance of the equipment contract. (See Step 5.)
Installation, Training and Ongoing Technical
Support
ISS offers "turnkey"
installation services or
illustrated instructions to
install your own station(s).
Training services come
with each purchase; and
ISS also offers guidelines
on how to plan and
organize emergency
broadcasts. If you require
after-sale technical
support, ISS offers email/
phone help for the life of the product at no extra
charge.
Communication Aids
Begin right away to develop communications that
publicize your station so listeners will be aware when
it becomes operational. Continue communicating about
the station at regular intervals to keep it present in
listeners' minds. ISS can provide on compact disk, at
no extra charge, examples and templates of these
types of communications.

Exclusive Features
155 is the only company in the United ~tates offering the following exclusive features, which make ALERT
AM a particularly useful emergency management communication tool:
1. Only ALERT AM can change to new message
patterns, when the National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Association (NOAA) Weather Radio System or
Emergency Alert System (EAS) sends warnings.
2. Only ALERT AM features a NOAA EAS/weather
receiver that is field programmable and upgradable
to remain current with changes in NOAA EAS/weather
hazards. Only ALERT AM captures the most recent
warning activation for replay by system operators.
3. Only ALERT AM allows special broadcast
messages to be aired automatically in conjunction with
outdoor warning system activations or Emergency
Operations Center control panel switches.
4. Only ten prerecorded touchtone bursts and burst
sequences that can be programmed into broadcast
messages as required to gain attention for emergency
messages.
5. Only the ALERT AM system synchronizes
"repeater" stations (to create larger coverage areas)
without relying on vulnerable dialed-up telephone
links to distribute audio in times of emergency.
6. Optional ALERT AM wireless audio links make
synchronized audio connections for high reliability with
no monthly operating charges; i.e., do not rely on
tele/cell phone lines during emergencies, preventing
synchronized AM stations from becoming
disconnected, broadcasting the wrong messages and,
in doing so, interfering with synchronized stations
broadcasting the correct message. The secure wireless
audio links cannot be jammed by the public. Audio is
conveyed in digital form, so it cannot be scanned or
monitored. Range is up to 60 miles with pure line of
sight; yet the relatively low 900 MHz operating
frequency means the signal will accommodate some
terrain and foliage. There is excellent signal quality
with low noise. Wireless Audio Links operate on the
same battery backup system as ALERT AM, so when
power goes down, they stay up.
7. Only ALERT AM offers flexible installation styles
to allow antennas to be located on building roofs.
8. Only the ALERT AM's antenna is black in color to
discourage ice build-up and is finished with a special
UV-resistant architectural-anodization process to
prevent color fading.
9. If installed in adjacent building yards, ALERT AM
requires only that a support pole be set. Not required
are large, buried, copper-wire groundplane
installation or chemical-emitting ground-pipe (hollow
rods) burial.
10. Only ALERT AM works in conjunction with solar-
powered flashing advisory signs via communities'
UHF /VHF Radio Systems to turn on/off beacons
remotely. These signs are the key to notification of the
community that an emergency message is being
broadcast.
11. Only ALERT AM offers a battery backup system
capable of keeping the station on the air for a full 4
days.
12. Only ISS systems employ nonproprietary
designs. This means that, in the future, you may change
components as needed without the requirement to
return to ISS; i.e., simple wiring diagrams are
provided, so you can service equipment yourself, if
you choose, or have a third party assist - all with full
ISS support.
13. Only ISS transmitter frequencies are synthesized,
not crystal controlled, allowing simple frequency
changes in the future, if necessary.
14. Additionally, only Information Station Specialists
offers technical assistance for the life of the (ALERT
AM) product. ISS supports today radio stations that
first went on the air in the 1 980s. ISS' staff of
engineers has more than 60 years of combined
experience specifically in the kind of radio technology
under which ALERT AM operates (FCC Rules, Part
90.242).

Memo
To: Doug Smith, Assistant City Manager
From: Lula Butler, Director, Community Improvement
By: AI Berg, Assistant Director, Community Improvement
Date: April 7, 2006
Re: Code Enforcement - FY 05/06 Goals and Objectives
In order to improve the service level of the code enforcement
program for the City of Delray Beach, some changes are
proposed in our programs. Some of these changes will be made
possible because of additional programs that have been initiated
last year while other changes will be made possible because of a
change in philosophy.
The plan is to concentrate our efforts as follows:
. Remove all abandoned vehicles and illegal uses
within established timelines under current procedures.
. Ensure prompt removal of trash and debris from right-
of-ways by Waste Management through routine and
systematic field monitoring.
. Establish and implement a standardized procedure
with timelines for abatement of overgrowth and litter
on vacant lots in partnership with existing
homeowners' associations.
. Increase outreach and attendance at homeowners'
associations, civic meetings, and the Chamber of
Commerce to encourage, educate and engage citizen
1
involvement in the reporting and abatement of
declining conditions.
. Enhance staff training with individual training
opportunities.
. Encourage personal contact by code officers.
. Improve department web site to be easier to negotiate
with easier navigability.
. Utilize customer survey cards distributed from City
Hall.
GOAL # 1 - CLEAN CITY
Because we can't possibly expect to improve the housing
conditions until we improve the conditions of the living
environment in the community, we are embarking on a campaign
to remove conditions in the community which detract from our
neighborhoods. The plan is to concentrate our efforts to remove
abandoned vehicles, clean up trash and debris, and mowing
overgrown lots. To accomplish our mission, we will actively patrol
assigned areas and partner with neighborhood associations to
rectify properties that are declining in appearance. We realize
that we need to have a partner in this effort and that without the
neighborhood's help, we will not succeed.
The City will increase its' efforts to reach out to the community by
scheduling more outreach programs and attendance at
neighborhood association meetings. Homeowners' associations
will be encouraged to report declining conditions as they occur.
Code enforcement officers will post properties with red stickers
that will be the subject of lot clearing enforcement. Abandoned
vehicles on City swales and those on private property will be
removed in accordance with City ordinances. Stricter procedures
and shortened timeframes will be instituted to remove visual
blight from our neighborhoods.
. Page 2
Trash on City swales will be removed on a regular basis through
active patrols and in cooperation with our neighborhood
associations through Waste Management. Our Litter Prevention
Coordinator will augment our clean city program by attending
association meetings, distributing literature, organizing relevant
clean-up campaigns, and promoting adopt a street programs
throughout the City.
Because the clean city and the litter prevention programs are
City-wide sponsored programs, the results throughout the
community will become evident right away. While some
neighborhoods may not suffer from abandoned vehicles, property
maintenance standards would be enforced in those areas. Dirty
roofs, unpainted structure.s, outside storage, and deteriorated
buildings will be addressed. All these efforts will contribute to the
clean city efforts.
Greater awareness of the clean city programs will also be
communicated through our Neighborhood Rental Housing
program. This program is expected to have a large impact on the
quality of rental housing in the city. As the number of rental
housing gives way to condominium conversion, it is more
important than ever to keep our affordable, rentable housing
available to our residents. There is a need in our community to
keep housing available and our inspection programs help owners
as well as tenants with rental issues. The goals are to have
owners recognize the need to keep their properties well
maintained while having the tenants doing their part in helping to
keep the property maintained.
Vacant lots and the usage of lots, particularly in residential areas,
will also be the subject of increased scrutiny. Vacant lots being
scheduled for cleaning will be posted so residents will see that
code enforcement personnel are already aware of an overgrown
lot.
Dumpster monitoring will also be necessary to be sure that clean
and sanitary condition exist around restaurants as well near multi-
family and single family neighborhoods. Increased pick-ups or
larger dumpsters will be made to comply with City of Delray
. Page 3
Beach standards and not be overflowing. Where necessary,
dumpsters will be screened from public view.
GOAL #2 - CUSTOMER SERVICE
Customer service, how we are perceived by the public as it
relates to the service we provide, is something that we can
constantly strive to improve. One of the simplest methods is to
distribute a customer survey form at the front counter. Also, a
survey form can be done on line.
Another way we plan on improving our customer service is by
providing training to our staff. Classes on "Dealing With Angry
People", "Diffusing Hostile Situations", and "Winning With the
Public" are a few examples of ways in which we can improve our
customer service. All staff will be required to attend these
sessions as they all must be part of the team.
Improving customer relations is one of the goals that all
governments should strive for. While the City enjoys a very good
reputation in the community, we can always do more. Code
Enforcement personnel will be required to make more personal
contacts in the field by knocking on doors to speak with people
about cases. Higher visibility in the community will become the
norm.
A teamwork approach to solving problems will be utilized. Only
through cooperative efforts among neighborhood associations,
area residents, and City staff, can we expect to reach our goals.
An improved community with quality housing will be our guide.

Police and Fire Pension Board Certification Pay Issue
To:
cc:
Date:
Re:
Last year the Police and Fire Pension Board decided they would no longer use the services
of the City's Finance Department to administer their pension plan. These services had been
provided to the plan for several decades at no cost to the plan. Instead, they decided to
retain the services of a commercial firm to do this work.
After retaining this private firm to administer the Police and Fire Pension, and prior to
receiving any actuarial cost information, the Board directed the firm to include certification pay
in the pension calculations for all members of the plan who worked between 1992 and 2004.
This issue was brought to the City Commission at your January 10, 2006 meeting. At that
meeting, the Commission directed staff to have our actuaries determine the cost of this
change which had been directed by the Pension Board. A copy of the actuarial report is
attached. In summary, if this change is allowed to be implemented our accrued liability will
increase by approximately $573,000 and the City's required annual contribution to the Police
and Fire Pension Plan will increase by approximately $37,000.
The issue of whether certification pay should be included in eamings for purposes of
calculating pension benefits has been raised periodically since 1991. A complete, detailed
chronology of the issue is included as part of the Finance Director's Notes on the issue,
which are attached. The Extra Benefits Agreement, negotiated in 1993 between the City, the
Pension Board and the PBA and IAFF, was supposed to have settled this issue. Since the
issue was raised again subsequent to the 1993 agreement, City staff believes that an
understanding was reached once more in 2004 that if the multiplier were increased from 3%
to 3.5%, the certification pay issues would be dropped. We believe that the Pension Board's
actions are contrary to the 1993 and 2004 agreements.
Recommendation: That the City Commission direct our attomeys to take appropriate
legal action to prevent the Police and Fire Pension Board and its third party administrator
from including certification pay in any determination of pension benefits.

Re: Cost Study for Delray Police and Firefighters' Retirement System
Dear Scott:
As requested, we have estimated the impact on the City of Delray Beach Police and Firefighters'
Retirement System if the pay in the disputed pay codes is included as pensionable earnings. This
estimation only covers the retired employees you provided to us, and does not include employees
who are currently active. We have summarized the impact below:
· Approximately $297,000 would have to be paid from plan assets to make up for pension
payments that were missed by current retirees. We have assumed no interest on the
missed payments as of March 31,2006.
· The retirees would owe the amount they would have contributed while employed if the
disputed pay amounts were included as pensionable earnings. The total amount the
employees would owe is $58,000. We have assumed the employees would pay back the
missed contributions with no interest. Please note that there are several employees who
will owe money due to missed contributions on the disputed pay, but will not receive an
increase in their pension benefit, since there was no additional pay within the period used
to calculate their final average earnings.
· The accrued liability would increase by approximately $573,000, which would cause the
required contribution to increase by $37,000 or 0.24% of the October 1, 2004 covered
payroll. We have assumed that the additional pension payments will be made as a 60%
joint and survivor annuity, the plan's normal form of payment for married participants.
· Commencing April 1, 2006, we have estimated that monthly benefits would increase by
approximately $4,000 per month.
In summary, if the disputed pay is treated as pensionable earnings, approximately $297,000
would be paid from plan assets to employees, and $58,000 would be paid from employees into
the plan assets, for a net effect of $239,000 paid out of plan assets. Additionally, the accrued
liability of the plan would increase causing the required contribution to increase by $37,000.
Please be aware that these calculations are approximations only, and if the board decides to
..
March 9, 2006
Mr. Scott Baur

implement this new definition of pensionable earnings to include the disputed pay amounts a
separate precise calculation for each retired employee will be required.
The above calculations are based on data provided by you and the assumptions, methods, and
provisions as detailed in our most recent actuarial valuation report. If you need any further
information, please let us know.

Notes on Certification Pay Issue for Firefi2hters
Possible References:
Definition of "Earninl!s"
City Code Section 33.60 (Police/Fire Pension Ordinance) defines "Earnings" as "Basic
wages paid to a member, excluding overtime, bonuses, and any other non-regular
payments."
Ordinance No. 17-04 (Clarification of "Earnings") dated March 11,2004 to read "Basic
wages paid to a member, including state education compensation, police basic education
and police and fire career education compensation, but excluding overtime, bonuses and
any other payments."
Division of Retirement correspondence dated January 19, 2001 provides a reference to
F.S. 175.032(3) and "states that compensation or salary means the fixed monthly
remuneration paid a firefighter. Since supplemental compensation is a part of the
firefighter's fixed monthly remuneration and therefore it appears that supplemental
compensation should be included as a minimum salary element for firefighters."
F.S 175.032(3) (a) Chapter 175 permits an alternative definition of compensation for
firefighters if the plan definition combined with the plan benefit formula produces a
pension benefit that equals or exceeds the benefit produced by the statutory definition and
statutory minimum benefit formula.
Pension Plan Chanl!es
Plan changes have to be approved and authorized by the municipality (F.S. 175.071(5)
and F.S. 185.06(4)
. City Commission addressed this issue on April 27, 1993 and decided that an
ordinance change was not necessary and that certification pay was not approved
. City Commission addressed this issue and issued Ordinance No. 17-04 dated
March 11, 2004 clarifying "earnings" to not include firefighter certification pay in
pension calculations
Plan changes require an actuarial costing prior to approval (F.S. 175.351(2) and F.S.
185.35(2))
. City Commission addressed this issue on January 10,2006 and requested costing
of certification pay
. GRS issued costing of certification pay on March 9, 2006. Accrued liability
would increase by $573,000. Required contribution would increase by $37,000 or
.24% of payroll. Employee contributions for past retirees would have to be
collected even though some retirees would not receive a benefit. $297,000 would
be due to previous retirees with $58,000 paid by employees and $239,000 from
the City.
1
Plan changes must be submitted to the State between first and second reading of an
ordinance (F.S. 175.261(2) (a) 1 and 185.35(2))
City Code Section 33.72 states that this ordinance is not intended in any way to change
the 1993 Agreement
1993 Agreement (Section 8) states "The Board, IAFF, and PBA hereby release, acquit,
satisfy and forever discharge the City, its agents, insurers, employees, successors and
assigns from any and all manner of legal action, causes of action, suits, grievances,
claims and demands of any kind..."
Possible Issues:
The Police/Fire Pension Board has interpreted the definition of "Earnings" in Section
33.60 of the pension ordinance to include firefighter certification pay. The opinion of the
Board Attorney is that the Pension Board alone has the right to interpret the meaning of
"earnings", not the City, and therefore firefighter certification pay should be approved for
pension calculation purposes.
F.S. 175.071(e)(5) and F.S. 185.06 (4) states "The sole and exclusive administration of,
and the responsibilities for, the proper operation of a firefighters' pension trust fund and
for making effective the provision of this chapter are vested in the board of trustees;
however, nothing herein shall empower a board of trustees to amend the provisions ofa
retirement plan with the approval of the municipality. .."
Pension Board accepts Ordinance 17-04 prospectively for the definition of earnings and
is only concerned with retirees from 1992 through 2004. If this indeed is the position of
the Board and a change was made to retirees prior to 2004 to include firefighter
certification pay in pension calculations, the City would be decreasing an existing benefit
in 2004 which would be in conflict with state statutes.
The City Attorney and the City Commission have repeatedly addressed this question and
have concluded that firefighter certification pay is a form of bonus that is not continuous
(must be maintained) and is therefore excluded from earnings subject to pension. Union
agreements clearly state that each of these certifications are paid as long as they are
maintained.
Inclusion of firefighter certification pay for pension calculations is a benefit increase and
would be therefore subject to union negotiations prior to the 1993 Agreement which
stated that it settled all prior claims. The issue of firefighter certification pay had been
claimed since 1991, well before the 1993 Agreement.
The definition of "earnings" was clarified in Ordinance 17-04 and was intended to
resolve the issue of certification pay in exchange for a 3.5% multiplier benefit change.
Inclusion of firefighter certification pay for pension calculation purposes would be a
benefit increase and thus would increase our minimum benefits provided and should be
2
therefore paid for out of premium tax funds. If accepted, this would cause the City to
violate the 1993 Agreement.

make clear the types of pay that are not to be included. Mayor stated he did not feel this
was necessary. City Manager stated he felt that additional pay codes should be bargained

MEMORANDUM
SUBJECT: Discussion of ChanQes to Workforce HousinQ Ordinances
The Workforce Housing group met to discuss several potential changes to the
Workforce Housing Ordinances. Staff requests that the City Commission review
the proposed changes and give direction as to whether you desire to proceed with
any of the changes.
The first proposed ordinance revision would give the same density bonus for "for
sale" units to rental units.
Secondly, the current Workforce Housing Ordinance provides in Section 4.7.9,
"General Provisions", subsection 4.7.9.c.v. that if the development contains both
for sale and for rent units, the proportion of rental to for sale units be proportional
to market rate rental and for sale units. In some cases, units that receive funding
under the Florida Housing Finance Corporation's Housing Credit or SAIL
Programs may be adversely affected as it is currently drafted. Thus, new
language seeks to allow that those workforce units so financed will not need to be
proportioned as long as the workforce "for sale" units equal 20% of the "for sale
units".
The third item concerns whether the ordinance should include provisions so that
Community Land Trust (CL T) receives rights of first refusal on workforce housing
units developed on non-CL T owned lands. I am including an article and ordinance
from DeKalb Georgia that includes a right of first refusal.
By copy of this memorandum to David Harden, City Manager, I am requesting that
these matters be placed before the City Commission at their workshop meeting on
April 11, 2006.

The county finds that the housing shortage for persons of very-low to moderate incomes
is detrimental to the public health, safety and welfare, and further that it is a public purpose of
the county, and public policy of the state of Georgia, to make available an adequate supply of
housing for all segments of the community, while at the same time maintaining an economically
sound and healthy environment. Further, the county finds that there is insufficient federal and
state support for programs to assist the county in meeting its affordable housing needs. The
county finds that it is a public purpose of the county to seek assistance and cooperation from the
private sector in making available an adequate supply of housing for persons of all economic
segments of the community. The goal of the county is to achieve a balanced community with
housing available for persons of all income levels.
The purpose of this ordinance is to ensure that future residential development, within the
County, including mixed-use development, contributes to the attainment of the housing goals of
the county's Comprehensive Plan by increasing the production of units available to, and
affordable by, households of low to moderate incomes, in order to promote a balance of housing
for all economic segments of the community, and to meet the needs documented in the housing
element ofDeKalb's Comprehensive Plan. Specifically, the purposes of the ordinance are to:
(a) Promote the construction of housing within the county that is affordable to all
households with low to moderate incomes;

needs, and be given an opportunity to buy or rent an MPDU during the priority marketing
period in the order of that person's selection priority ranking.
(d) The priority-marketing period for new unit ends 90 days after the initial offering date
approved by the department or its designee. The priority-marketing period for
resold or re-rented units ends 60 days after the department or its designee notifies

Ordinance would open more doors to DeKalb workforce seeking
affordable housing
BY MARY SWINT
DeKalb residents who earn low to
moderate incomes from jobs inside
the county may find more affordable
housing if a proposed workforce
housing ordinance is adopted but
there would be strings attached.

The ordinance introduced at the Board of Commissioners meeting
on May 10 would require all new residential developments in
DeKalb with 30 or more dwelling units to designate 15 percent of
the units as moderately priced dwelling units (MDPU's). The law
would apply to detached and attached single-family homes,
apartments and condominiums.
The developers would be required to distribute the MDPU's
throughout the development with the exterior appearance of the
MDPU's substantially the same as the exteriors of market rate
units. The ordinance sets minimum sizes for the MDPU's, ranging
from 500 square feet if it has only one bedroom to 1100 square
feet if it has four bedrooms. In single-family subdivisions, the
MDPU would need at least 2 bedrooms under the proposed
ordinance.
Before any building permits are issued, the developer would have
to make an agreement with the county that the development
would have affordable units for at least 15 years if the project
received public subsidies, density bonuses or other concessions.
The buyer or renter must occupy the unit as his or her principle
residence for this control period.
The county would maintain a list of eligible persons of moderate
income and would notify them of the affordable units available for
sale or rent. The DeKalb CEO or his designee could establish a
buyer or renter selection system, which takes into consideration
"household size, county residency, employment in the county, and
length of time since the person was certified for the MPDU
program". The eligible person would be selected by lottery or
some other equitable method and would be given the opportunity
to buy or rent a MPDU during the 90-day priority marketing period
for new dwelling units and 60-day period for resold or re-rented
units.
Buyers of MDPU's would have to enter into a resale agreement
prior to closing, giving the county the right of first refusal to
purchase the unit and allowing the county to designate an eligible
purchaser. If the buyer later wants to sell the unit, the ordinance
says the resale price may include the fair market value of

improvements to the unit, a closing costs allowance, sales
commission if not sold in the priority marketing period and the
increase in cost of living.
In some cases the developer could pay "in-lieu fees" instead of
providing MDPU's. The fee would go to the county's Mixed
Income Housing Fund to subsidize affordable housing for low and
moderate income households.
The ordinance would not apply to residential dwellings for which
building permits were issued before the ordinance's effective date
or to existing dwellings that are "altered, improved, restored,
expanded or extended" as long as the number of units is not
increased.
The ordinance was sent to the Planning and Economic
Development Committee for further review. In February, that
committee heard a presentation by Planning Director Shari
Strickland on similar inclusionary zoning ordinances around the
country.
Commissioners Burrell Ellis, a sponsor of the ordinance, said the
county should help workers such as police officers, firefighters
and teachers afford housing in the areas they serve.
According to a recent report by the Atlanta Neighborhood
Development Partnership, Inc., over 60 percent of all jobs in the
Atlanta metro region pay less than $40,000 and one-third of
households earn $40,000 or less per year. In 2000, there was a
surplus of about 60,000 housing units for households earning
more than $50,000. However, the report said the shortage of
houses and apartments available for households with incomes
under $40,000 could range from about 185,000 to more than
305,000.
The report showed a surplus of housing for households with
annual incomes of $25,000 and $31,000 around the Decatur job
center but a shortage for those earning $20,000 or less. The
report also noted that 56 percent of the jobs in the Perimeter Mall

SUBJECT: WiFi RFP/lnvitation to Neaotiate
The Commission had previously given direction to City staff to solicit proposals
from companies interested in constructing a wifi umbrella over the downtown area.
City staff prepared a request for proposal document (attached hereto), with the
input of outside counsel.
This item is in front of you to seek input and direction regarding how you wish staff
to proceed in this request as it became apparent when preparing the RFP that we
could be limiting our responses in that the RFP contains language that may be too
restrictive. If the Commission wishes to solicit proposals, where it is left up to the
proposer to determine the means and methods of providing a wifi umbrella over
the downtown area, with the possibility of expansion, the Commission could
consider an Invitation to Negotiate (ITN) process. The ITN would allow a greater
range of ideas, regarding how to provide for wifi service, than our traditional RFP
process.
If the Commission wishes to proceed by using the ITN process, staff will proceed
with an ordinance change to provide for this process. The ordinance change may
occur simultaneously with the ITN process as it is anticipated to allow prospective
proposers a 60 day window in which to respond to the ITN. The second reading of
the ordinance will occur prior to award and if the ordinance does not pass there
will not be an award. Once staff received the responses then they will be ranked
and the recommendation will be brought to the Commission for approval.
Our office requests that this item be placed on the April 11, 2006 City Commission
agenda. Please call if you have any questions.
