CONSENT AGENDA

b.
(1) As discussed at the workshop meeting on December 9th,
Council is to consider authorizing execution of Change
Order No. 1 between the City and Arthur V. Strock &
Associates, Inc. to provide full engineering inspection
services for the construction of the Island Drive Bridge.
Originally it was planned to have the Engineering Depart-
ment perform this work, however, due to a reduction in
staff and an increase in workload, execution of this
change order is made advisable.
The engineering inspection will be paid for on an hourly
basis and the amount will not exceed $3,920, with funds
to come from the General Fund Contingency Account.
(2) As discussed at the December 9th workshop meeting, Council
is to consider authorizing execution of a quit claim deed
from the City to Bredin Realty Company of a 10-foot strip
of land at Tahiti Cove, west of Venetian Drive on the
eastern edge of the Intracoastal Waterway.
(3) As discussed at the workshop meeting on December 9th,
Council is to consider at the meeting Tuesday night the
appointment of Virginia Cady as an alternate member of the
Civil Service Board to the unexpired term of Joel Smith
ending July 1, 1983. Mr. Smith was previously elevated
to regular member status.
(4) The City is in receipt of an application from Gulfstream
Lodge, Inc. for City water service to serve 2713 North
Federal Highway, two blocks south of Gulfstream Boulevard,
which is outside the City. The property is presently being
used as a restaurant, gasoline filling station and motel
and the proposed use is for the same.
It is recommended that Council approve execution of the
City's standard water service/annexation agreement, which
will permit the City to provide the requested water service
to the applicant.
(5) Resolution No. 102-80 to ratify and confirm prior contract
negotiations and to award a contract to Palm Beach County
in the amount of $4,762.35 for the purchase of a traffic
controller preemptor providing a red signal for N. E. 8th
Street traffic upon the approach of a train has been pre-
pared for Council consideration at the meeting Tuesday
night.
Florida East Coast Railroad advised that there was no pre-
emption for trains going through the N. E. 8th Street
crossing and the City could be held at fault in the event
of an accident. The equipment will be installed by the
Department of Transportation when the Federal Highway
signals are upgraded. In the interim, it was felt that
a temporary preemptor should be placed to warn motorists.
It does not meet the traffic manual standards but on an
interim basis it will provide the service we need.
This was referred to workshop from the regular meeting on
October 28th and discussed at workshop meetings on
November 4th, November 18th and December 9th.
(6) Resolution No. 116-80 requesting permission from the Palm
Beach County Board of Commissioners to rezone land to be
annexed from AG (Agricultural) (County) to R-lAA (Single
Family Dwelling) District (City), located at the southwest
6. b.

prepared for Council consideration at the meeting Tuesday
night.
Council directed the City Attorney to prepare the reso-
lution at the December 2nd workshop meeting.
