made in the zoning ordinance for suoh and as a rest-
aurant or business was prohibited in that distriot,

al of the Counoil. After disoussion, it was moved

oation until another meeting of the Council. ~. Miller

the Kiwanis Committee and ~rrange the desired meeting.
A oommunioation from Dan W. Smith was
read in whioh he complained that the original open
ditoh along the North side of Atlantio Avenue had
been filled by the City, thus olosing off all drainage
from his property in Seabreeze Park, with the result
that his plaoe had been under water for several days
during reoent heavy rains. He requested that the
Counoil provide some method of drainage, stating that
unless such aotion was taken by the City it would be
necessary for him to bring legal aotion for damages.

COUNCIL CHAMBER - November 14, 1938
After some discussion, Mr. Hall said the whole thing
simply resolved itself into an engineering Question
as to whether the lot is aotually above or below high
tide in the oanal, and that if it was below high water
level, no normal drain would run the water off. It
was finally moved, seconded and oarried that the City
Engineer investigate the situation and run a level
to determine the aotual height of the ground as
oompared with canal high water level, making a report
and recommendation to the Council as to how the
situation might be remedied.
Petitions were reoeived from H.T. Yardley
and the Gracey Realty Company asking that a six inoh
lateral sewer be oonstruoted in the easement lying
East of Seabreeze Avenue in Ooean Breeze Estates,
the oost of same, not to exoeed $260.00, to be
assumed by said petitioners upon oompletion of the
work. It was pointed out that in oonformity with a
previous deoision of the Counoil, payment should be
asked in advanoe for suoh oonstruotion and it was
aooordingly moved by Mr. Wodisohek that the requested
sewer line be built, and the pro-rata oost of oonstruot-
ion be paid in advanoe by property owners benefited
thereby. Mr. Miller seoonded the motion whioh on
roll oall, oarried unanimously.
A oommunioation from the Florida Power &
Light Company was read offering a 20% disoount on the
City's net eleotric bills, whioh offer was made with
oertain reservations and sUbjeot to oanoellation
upon sixty days' notioe to the City. It was shown
that this would result in a saving of approximately
$700.00 over a l2-month period, and the members stated
it would enable the City to add needed lights. It
was moved by Mr. Hall that the City Clerk be instruoted
to write Mr. Senior expressing the Counoil's appreo-
iation for the spirit of oooperation shown by the
Florida Power & Light Company and advising him that the
City will be glad to avail itself of the disoount

COUNCIL CHAMBER - November l4th,1938
reasonable fee but oould not afford $5.00 a day as
stipulated in the City's lioense ordinanoe. The
Counoil was unwilling to grant any suoh privilege and
took no further qotion in the matter. Upon enquiry by
the applioant as to erecting a sign on Rio Del Rey
property, just North of the Germantown Road, adjaoent
to the Federal Highway, he was advised to see the
Building Inspeotor about required sign permit. Mr.
Geo. Riley raised objeotion to signs being permitted
inside the City limits, stating there was a move on
foot allover the oountry to eliminate suoh eyesores
and that he oonsidered them most objeotionable along

dookage fee of half a oent per foot for all boats
stopping at the City dooks for a period of three days
or over; the oost of water to be additional. In the
matter of the yaoht basin and the oonstruotion of
suitable dooks, it was moved by Mr. Hall that Howard
Cromer be authorized to go ahead with this work eB
Jriginally planned.
I 0
Counoilman Wo~isohek reported that C.N.
MaoLaren had three large palm trees in front of his
house that he wanted to dispose of, and Mr. Cromer
stated Mike Blank would move same for $20.00 per tree.
It was finally moved by Mr. Wodisohek that the City
Engineer be authorized to have said trees moved to the
Ooean Boulevard and that he endeavor to get the work
done for at least t50.00, the quoted prioe of $20.00
per tree being deemed rather high. Mr. Hall seoonded

COUNCIL CHAMBER - November l4th,1938
It was moved by Mr. Hall that the matter be referred
to the Parks Committee for investigation and report.
Mr. Gwynn oontended it was a matter for the City
Attorney's attention.
The Mayor reported having been served with
~n alternative writ of mandamus direoting the City to
levy an amount sufficient to pay past due interest
on bonds held by the New Kent Seourities Corporation.
The City Attorney asked advioe and the
Counoil's authority in regard to claims made by the
Good Samaritan Hosuital and Dr. Stone in oonneotion
with Emry Piokren's aooident whioh oooured January
17, 1937 during his employment by the City as motor-
oyole polioeman. No aotion was taken by the Counoil,
until further IJheok oould be made as to the status of
the oase, and lisbility )f the City in the matter.
The City Attorney adviSed that The Vermont
Investment Company would take nothing less than a 19-
mill levy this year, said oreditor having stated he
believed suoh a demand would tend to foroe the City
into a refund, whioh he oonsidered desirable. The
only other possibility of obtaining a workable bond
millage for this year, Mr. Nowlin said, was by going
into Court and asking for a spread millage, and even
this would be exhorbitant should the Bondholders
Co~mittee demand levy for both interest and prinoipal,
as others are doing. He said Mr. Kearley had agreed
to advise him further as to the Committee's demands,
on the following Wednesday.
The City Attorney reoommended that the
Counoil prooeed to pass m~et resolutions, setting
the millage in Ward 1 as already tentatively agreed
upon, Whereupon it was moved by Mr. Wodisohek,
seoonded by Mr. Gwynn, and on roll oall, unanimously
oarried that the following resolutions be adopted.

City of Delray Beaoh, Florida
Counoilman Hall submitted a oopy of Ft.
Lauderdale's traffio regulations, and recommended the
passage of a similar ordinanoe by Delray stating this
was the best code of traffio regulations he had ever
seen. It was acoordingly moved, seconded and oarried
that the following ordinance be pIa oed on its first
reading:
,ORDINANCE 252
BOOK 4
.
AN ORDINANCE REGULATING TRAFFIC UPON THE
PUBLIC STREETS OF THE CITY OF DELRAY BEACH,
FLORIDA, AND REPEALING ALL OTHER ORDINANCES
AND SECTIONS OF ORDINANCES IN CONFLICT HERE-
WITH, AND PROVIDING A PENALTY FOR THE
VIOLATION OF THE PROVISIONS THEREOF.
The ordinanoe having been read in full, it was moved
by Mr. Gwynn, seoonded by Mr. Y~ller and unanimously
oarried on roll oall, that same be passed on its first
reading. It was recommended by Mr. Gwynn that members
of the Counoil study said ordinanoe before passage
on its final reading.
A disoussion arose in regard to oon-
struotion of the new sidewalk from Canal to the Beaoh,
the City Engineer reporting that Dan Smith proposed
to raise his present walk and re-lay same instead
of having the work contraoted for. It was stated that
1065
COUNCIL CHAMBER - November 14th, 1938
this would not be permitted beoause it would not
oonform with the other walk either as to width or
oonstruotion. Beoause of the faot that Mr. Smith
had previously built and paid for his walk, the
Counoil authorized payment, by the City, of half the
oonstruotion oosts for his portion of the new sidewalk.
In disoussing beaoh improvements, the
Chairman of the Parks Committee urged that this work
be started immediately. He reoommended that the 8-foot
paved walk be oontinued North to oonneot with the
boardwalk. The boardwalk he proposed to reconstruot
in seotions whioh could be taken up and stored away
in time of storms. After disoussion Mr. Gwynn moved
that the oement walk be oontinued North as reoommended,
that the boardwalk be repaired as outlined, that the
pavilion East of the boulevard be painted, that
additional benohes with concrete ends be built, that
more shelters be provided up and down the beaoh,
that the present ones be repaired and that additional
playgr'ound e<;.uipment be provided. Mr. Miller
seoonded the motion whioh oarried unanimously. The
Chairman of the Parks Committee agreed to prepare
speoifioations so that bids could be oalled for on
the painting of the beaoh pavilion.
Mr, Hill, Chairman of the oommittee app-
ointed to oonsider bids submitted on a new water
pump, reported that his oommittee had been over the
oharts, speoifioations and classifioations and after
due oonsideration, reoommended purchase of the worth-
ington Pump, it being oonsidered the best for the jOb
it had to do. This was a Motor Driven Centrifugal
pump, of 750 GPM oapaoity, Total dynamio head 128',
Speed 3510 RPM, weight 1085 lbs, at a net prioe of
$508.00, plus an additional oost of $18.00 for
monel shaft specified by the Committee. It was
aooordingly moved by Counoilman Wodisohek that Mr.
Baker be authorized to purohase the reoommended
Worthington pump equipped vlith monel metal shaft.
Mr. Hallseoonded the motion and on roll oall the vote
was as follows: Mr. Gwynn yes, Mr. Hall yes, Mr.
Hill yes, Mr. Miller yes and Mr. Wodischek yes. The
motion aarried.
The Clerk reported that only one of the
assistants in the offioe was under bond and asked if
Y~s. Cremata should not be bonded, also. It was
regularly moved, seoonded and carried that $1000.00
bond be taken out on Mrs. Jane Cremate, Deputy-Clerk.

ordered that a notioe be published oalling a mass
meeting of ta~payers next Wednesday night, at the
Firemen's Hall for the purpose of discussing the
1938-1939 debt service levy in Ward 2. The members
stated they were unwilling to take the responsibility
of levying the high tax, that apparently was going
to be demanded, without having the voice of the
people in the matter.
It was moved by Mr. WOdisohek that bills
3546 to 3632, having been O.K'd by the Finanoe Committee,
be returned to the Counoil and ordered p~id.
