They encompass several lots and parcels which are located on the east and west sides of North Federal Highway, north of the Delray Swap Shop. Prior to first reading of these ordinances, it was anticipated that an Annexation Agreement for all but one of the parcels would be executed by the property o~er and incorporated into the appropriate ordinance. However, the agreements had not been finalized and were not ready for action at first reading. In order to 'not delay annexation, the ordinances were modified to delete any reference to an Annexation Agreement and were passed on first reading at the March 8th regular meeting. The Co~ission directed staff to work diligently with the affected property o~ers to finalize the agreements prior to second reading of the ordinances. The results of that effort are outlined in the accompanying memorandum from Lula Butler. One executed agreement has been received and is included on the agenda for action (O'Brien, Suiter & O'Brien/Ordinance No. 14-94). Five of the property o~ers have indicated they will not sign an agreement, as follows: ** J. and Lucille Compagno (Ordinance No. 8-94) ** V.C. and Christine Bland (Ordinance No. 10-94) ** Richard E.

Motion and Titlet Btar£ recommends motion to ezeoute= an Interlocal Agreement between Palm Beach County and the City of Delra¥ Beach providing for annexation of eight enclaves. B. Su~&ry: Chapter 171.046, F.S., allows annexation of enclaves of ten acres or less of developed land if the municipality (the City of Dalray Beach) and the County having jurisdiction over such enclaves enter into an Interlocal Agreement. This Interlocal Agreement addresses %he service provision needs of the residents, meets the requirements of Florida Statutes for annexation, and is consistent with the Co~nty and municipal Comprehensive Plans. Dlstric~ 4, C. Background end ~ustification: The City of Oelray Beach has · identified eight enclaves that ara eligible for annexation with an Interlocal Agreement. These eight enclaves create service delivery problems for both the County and the City. The City is requesting County assistance in annexing these enclaves. The City has written the owners of these enclaves to inform them of this proposed annexation. The Florida Legislature, My amending Chapter 171, Florida Statutes, has created a means for ~he City to annex these enclaves. Chapter 171, which pertains to municipal annex- ations, allows a municipality to annex enclaves of ten acres or less of developed land if the municipality enters into an Interlocal Agreement with the County. The Pals Beach County Planning Division supports these annex- ations. Objective 1 of the Palm Beach County Comprehensive Plan, Intergovernmental Element, encourages the annexation of enclaves "that result in inefficient service delivery". The attached Interlocal Agreement implements the requirements of Florida Statutes and is consistent with the Palm Beach County Comprehensive Plan. A per, ion of Enclave No. 8, known ae the Dmlra¥ Swap Shop properties, is proposed to b e annexed on a voluntary basis and is not paz~c of this Interlocal Agreement. The annexation of ~hese enclaves is b~ing opposed by some lan~ownere. Both written and oral colmunicatione have been received by the Planning Division regarding their concerns that the change in Jurisdiction would adversely impact their ability to conduct business. Planning staff has responded to their questions. However since most issues center around the perception that Delray's regulations are more stringent, the concerns are best addressed by Delray. The City held a meeting on Thursday, January 13, 1994 at 2:00 p.m. to discuss these annexations and answer questions. D. Attachments: 1.

Box 524 Boynton Beach, FL 33425 pd/dbe.doc - 2 - TO: Mary McCas~y Dick Morley This letter is a follow up to our phone conversation last week. My husband Richard and I own property at :2613 N. Federal Hwy. and have been Florida residents since 1970. We are quite concerned with your plan of forced annexation of our property by the City of Delray Beach. The property owners involved were never notified when the city planned to vote on this issue. The only party concerned with our plight seems to be the media. We sought out our property specifically because it was under county jurisdiction. We felt county regulations/ordinances/etc, were much more condudve to establishing a business by allowing more flexibility in usage to make the property productive. We had heard many complaints from city property owners of the hassles and costs involved in dealing with city authorities and wanted no part of that. Our property was purchased last spring and we are trying to establish a small business to bring customers back to this area. We can not absorb the added costs annexation would create. The property owners involved are very upset that county officials never chose to discuss with us the impact this transfer would have on us and how it would adversely affect us. We feel as though we have been "abandoned." The annexation was previously defeated through referendum and again through the "Enclave Act" granting an exemption. It is so unjust to disregard us. The county seems to be under the erroneous assumption that the city will grant us status quo.. Owners who have spoken with city officials have been granted nothing. Palm Beach County officials need to more fully assess the impact on affected property, and see that our best interests are also represented. It is unreasonable to expect us to step aside and be used as pawns! You are our Representation and we look to you for ~protection" and "fair treatment." Please address our concerns. Sincerely, Dorothy Catapane (407) 483-7078 (407) 278-34-14 cc: Kanm Marem Carol Roberu Warm~ New~ Bust Am'orison 94 354D Ca~ Hamon, State ~ta~ve .,ir~- Palm Beach County Commission March 22, 1994 You have granted us a one week extension from 3/15 to 3/22/94 so that Delray Beach officials could address the concerns of affected property owners. We do appreciate that extension. The dty has been trying to deal with all of the issues and costs, but the fact remains that there will still be significant costs involved which many of us just cannot afford. We feel we should decide if and when to annex and not be forcibly annexed. In fact, over half of these county properties in question do not meet the definition of an "enclave." The city is pursuing this under the new Elm's Act Law allowing cities that totally surround an enclave to claim it with the approval of the county. The property owner has no say whatsoever! The properties in question are cost effective. As you know the Elm's Act is receiving much criticism for being discriminating and unconstitutional. Citizens have become infuriated over its power to take away our rights. State legislatures are now trying to undo the tremendous mistake made when they approved the Elm's Act. Presently there are several pending bills (SB #484, #1526) coming up for vote that will restore the rights of property owners. You are all very well aware that in a matter of days the Elm's Law may not stand as now written. So why must you force a vote on this today? Two weeks ago, Palm Beach County Commissioners allowed citizens to be devoured by the City of Greenacres. Jupiter, on the other hand, decided to postpone indefinitely its annexation proceedings. Now you hold the fate of still more County Enclaves in your hands. The wise choice would be to proceed with caution now and not allow any more confiscation by cities until the state decides what the outcome of the Elm's Act amendments will be. How could you in "good conscience" vote to allow any more injustices to occur? Please stop this plunder immediately by voting for an indefinite postponement until pending legislation is finalized and scrutinized. Many of the people you represent in the county do no.t approve of forced annexation. They feel and fear for their neigh.bors whose way of life, livelihood, and financial security is put in jeopardy. I'm sure you all swore to uphold the Constitution. How can you now take away our fights to liberty, pursuits of happiness, and votes on an issue that directly and adversely affects us? Think about it. That's just what you will be doing if you give final approval today. The only fair and right decision today is to vote NO. 35 D
