9.C. PROPOSED AGRICULTURAL USE OF PROPERTY AT 2750 SEACREST
BOULEVARD: Provide direction on a request for agricultural tax
exemption for the Eckler Grove property located at 2750 Seacrest
Boulevard.
After discussion, it was the consensus of the City
Commission to have the Planning and Zoning Department and the
City Attorney work with the applicant to see if the situation can
be worked out to everyone's satisfaction. One possibility might
be looking at an amendment to the RR (Rural Residential) zoning
category, while another possibility might be to grandfather the
agricultural use under the existing R-1AA zoning district.
9.D. RECOMMENDATION ON COUNTY LAND USE AMENDMENT 99-99 COM1
(LAKE IDA ROAD AND JOg ROAD): Consider forwarding a recommenda-
tion to the Board of County Commissioners strongly objecting to a
proposed amendment to the County Future Land Use Atlas to change
the future land use designation for a 25.9 acre parcel from
Medium Residential 5 (MR-5) to Commercial Low with an underlying
5 units per acre (CL/5) on 17.78 acres, and Commercial Low Office
with an underlying 5 units per acre (CL-O/5) on 8.12 acres. The
site is located on the northeast corner of Jog Road and Lake Ida
Road.
Diane Dominguez, Director of Planning and Zoning,
stated that while the proposed land use amendment does not result
in increased residential densities, it does involve increased
intensities and consequently an increase in traffic which would
impact traffic volumes both on Lake Ida Road and surrounding
roadways within the City of Delray Beach. In July, 1998, when
the City Commission adopted Resolution No. 42-98 in support of
the widening of Lake Ida Road from Congress Avenue to Military
Trail, it was with the understanding that such four-laning would
not lead to approvals of increased densities in areas immediately
-8- 6/01/99
west of the City. The Planning and Zoning Board considered the
land use amendment on May 17, 1999, and voted unanimously to
recommend that a recommendation strongly objecting to County Land
Use Amendment 99-99 COM-1.
It was the consensus of the City Commission to accept
the Planning and Zoning Board's recommendation, with direction
that a strongly worded letter expressing the Commission's dis-
pleasure with the land use amendment be sent to the County.
9.E. SPECIAL EVENT REQUEST/ART & JAZZ ON THE AVENUE:
Consider a request from the Joint Venture for special event
approval for the July 1, 1999, Art & Jazz, including temporary
use permits for street closures, staff support, use of City
equipment, and specified overtime costs.
Mr. Schmidt moved to approve the special event request
for the July 1, 1999 Art & Jazz on the Avenue subject to the
staff recommendation. The motion was seconded by Mrs. Archer.
Upon roll call the Commission voted as follows: Mrs. Archer -
Yes; Mr. Wright - Yes; Mr. Randolph - Yes; Mayor Alperin - Yes;
Mr. Schmidt - Yes. Said motion passed with a 5 to 0 vote.
9.F. GRANT AWARDS FOR HOUSING REHABILITATION CONTRACTS:
Consider approval of the following contracts: $17,775.98 to
Dakota Construction for 302 S.W. 2nd Street, $15,576.75 to Frank
Bouman Construction for 240 S.W. 14th Avenue, $19834.50 to
Craftsman Plus, Inc. for 707 S.W. 6th Street, and $25,341.75 to
Abisset Corporation for 216 S.W. 8th Court, with funding in the
amount of $60,753.00 from 118-1924-554-49.19 (SHIP Housing Rehab)
and $17,775.98 from 118-1923-554-49.19 (HOME Housing Rehab), for
a total amount of $78,528.98.
Mr. Wright moved to approve the grant awards for
housing rehabilitation contracts, seconded by Mr. Randolph. Upon
roll call the Commission voted as follows: Mr. Wright - Yes; Mr.
Randolph Yes; Mayor Alperin - Yes; Mr. Schmidt - Yes; Mrs.
Archer - Yes. Said motion passed with a 5 to 0 vote.
9.G. RETIREMENT BENEFIT ENHANCEMENTS FOR RETIREES: Consider
the recommendations and provide direction on appropriate benefit
enhancements for retirees.
The City Manager made the following recommendations:
(1) Increase retirement benefits for retirees who retired prior
to September 30, 1993 by 5%, up to a maximum of $100.00 per
month. Those receiving over $2,000 per month would get a $100.00
9 6/01/99
per month increase. Those receiving $2,000 per month or less
would get a 5% increase. (2) Increase the minimum benefit for
employees with over ten years of service to $500.00 per month.
The City has some recent retirees receiving less than $500 per
month because their service with the City was fairly short. The
City Manager did not think it would be fair to increase their
benefits to equal those with longer tenure with the City.
The City Manager further noted that the proposal would
be to fund these additional benefits from the overfunded balance
of each pension fund to there would be no added annual cost to
the City.
It was the consensus of the City Commission to accept
the City Manager's recommendation, with direction to proceed with
preparation of the necessary ordinances and actuarial
evaluations.

Mr. Randolph. Upon roll call the Commission voted as follows:
