ed.

AN EFFECTIVE DATE.
The City Attorney read the caption of the ordinance.
The City Attorney was informed by the Planning Director that it
is nine (9) parcels, not ten (10) parcels.
Mr. Kovacs explained the reason there are comments with regard
to the scrivener's error on the D.B.O. Acres parcel zoning petition, was
that he thought it could be submitted to D.C.A.; however, this could not
be done as it had to be in the first batch that went to the D.C.A. The
official changes made are those which relate to showing consistency with
the Comprehensive Plan and those responding to the O.R.C. report.
Mark Krall, attorney representing Linton Center Partners, Ltd.,
stated this original project is Old Harbor Centre on the Southeast
corner of Linton and Federal, on which the new owners of the property
are objecting to changing the designation from Commercial to Transition-
al. This property was originally zoned Limited Commercial which doesn't
exist anymore. At a certain point in time, this property was rezoned
POC which does not allow any form of retail or commercial activity.
The current Land Use Map shows a designation of Commercial, but the
Planning and Zoning Board was unanimous in approving a zoning called
Transitional which would be consistent with the current zoning of POC.
The request before the Commission tonight is to allow the applicant time
to prepare and present a plan which will be acceptable to all parties
concerned before the final decision for this property is made.
Mr. Kovacs explained this project began as an SAD and, during
changes in zoning on the north side, it was changed to LC Zoning. There
are a number of concerned people in the neighborhood with regard to this
property. If no more time is given, then two (2) things will happen.
One of the questions will be how LC came about in the first place as
there was no notice given; secondly, if the plan was left in Commercial
there may be a presentation of a rezoning application to General Commer-
cial. While this may be beneficial to the applicant, it has it's
downsides. Mr. Kovacs recommended leaving this item as proposed.
Jean Beer, 945 Tropic Boulevard, stated she concurs with
everything Mr. Kovacs has said.
-16- 9/24/91
Dr. Alperin stated he doesn't want to eliminate this possibil-
ity without seeing what the potential is, but he does not want to see
more commercial businesses generated outside of the downtown area.
Mr. Mouw stated the applicant should have time for a viable
plan in order to make this project work.
Mayor Lynch stated there has to be flexibility given the
economy and the times.
The City Manager advised that if this item is going to be
changed it should be done at this time.
Mr. Mouw moved to table this item until later in the meeting,
seconded by Dr. Alperin. Upon roll call the Commission voted as fol-
lows: Mr. Andrews - No; Mr. Randolph - Yes; Mayor Lynch - Yes; Mr. Mouw
- Yes; Dr. Alperin - Yes. Said motion passed with a 4 to 1 vote.

12.F. Ordinance No. 73-91. Ordinance No. 73-91, rezoning property
located on the southeast corner of Linton Boulevard and S.W. 4th Avenue
(D.B.O. Acres Plat) from PC (Planned Commercial) zone district to GC
(General Commercial) zone district, in part, and AC (Automotive Commer-
cial) zone district, in part, is before the Commission for consideration
on First Reading. If passed, Public Hearing will be held October 8,
1991. Planning and Zoning Board recommends denial (5-2 vote).
The City Manager presented Ordinance No. 73-91:
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF
DELRAY BEACH, FLORIDA, REZONING AND PLACING LAND
PRESENTLY ZONED PC (PLANNED COMMERCIAL) DISTRICT IN GC
(GENERAL COMMERCIAL) DISTRICT, IN PART; AND AC (AUTO
RELATED COMMERCIAL) DISTRICT, IN PART; SAID LAND BEING
LOTS 1, 2, 3 AND TRACT "B", DB0 ACRES, ACCORDING TO
THE PLAT THEREOF RECORDED IN PLAT BOOK 63, PAGE 13 OF
THE PUBLIC RECORDS OF PALM BEACH COUNTY, FLORIDA; AND
AMENDING "ZONING DISTRICT MAP, DELRAY BEACH, FLORIDA,
1990"; PROVIDING A GENERAL REPEALER CLAUSE; PROVIDING
A SAVING CLAUSE; PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE.
The City Attorney read the caption of the ordinance.
Kiernan Kilday, architect representing Dan Burns Oldsmobile,
stated the property currently has a PC zoned designation. Kentucky
Fried Chicken and the Exxon Station are non-conforming uses. They were
originally GC, but one year ago the entire property was made PC.
In reply to Mayor Lynch, Mr. Kovacs stated prior to October 1,
1990 the entire area was all General Commercial. When this designation
was affixed to the parcel it was noted that the proposed Exxon (Lot 1)
and Kentucky Fried Chicken (Lot 2) would be non-conforming with respect
to the required minimum building size. The PC designation was given to
the entire parcel to ensure the balance of the site would be a unified
-19- 9/24/91
development with large buildings, common access and internal circulation
patterns. The proposed zoning change to GC would remove restrictions on
minimum lot sizes and minimum building sizes thereby allowing develop-
ment of several small individual lots with smaller buildings. This
development potential would lead to the creation of strip commercial
uses.
Mr. Mouw stated he was concerned with traffic flow and the
report from the City Traffic Engineer.
Mr. Randolph stated the best usage would be to go to AC zoning
to accommodate the tire store and the portion in between to be PC to
prevent strip commercial usage.
Mr. Andrews stated the site plan on the automotive is back-
wards.
Dr. Alperin stated this is an issue of what the community and
the City wants to see planned for the zoning.
Mr. Kilday stated there is no issue on this request with regard
to the Comprehensive Plan. This came in as GC, was built in conformity
with the City's request and everything requested by the City has been
done, even to the point of compromising the original request and leaving
some of the property as PC zoning. The only issue between the GC and PC
zoning is the size of the buildings.
Mayor Lynch stated the best use for the land along the railroad
track is GC or AC as long as the congestion can be worked out.
The City Attorney stated if the Commission is agreeable to the
accepted change to the ordinance then the PC zoning district would go to
GC, PC and AC. This can be done on October 8, 1991 and the caption can
be reread tonight. The item can then be deferred for Second Reading on
October 29, 1991 so that Planning and Zoning can have a chance to review
this issue. It will not have to be read on the October 8th agenda.
The City Attorney reread Ordinance No. 73-91:
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF
DELRAY BEACH, FLORIDA, REZONING AND PLACING LAND

reread by the City Attorney, seconded by Mr. Mouw. Upon roll call the
Commission voted as follows: Dr. Alperin - No; Mr. Andrews - Yes; Mr.
Randolph - Yes; Mayor Lynch - Yes; Mr. Mouw - Yes. Said motion passed
with a 4 to 1 vote.
At this point the Commission returned to Item No. 12.A.
Mr. Kovacs stated if the maps remain as they are, and Mr.
Krall's request is honored, there would be an inconsistency. The POC
District is not listed under the Commercial Use Designations and there
would be an obligation to go to PC or GC on this property.
In reply to Mayor Lynch, Mr. Kovacs stated the applicant can
proceed faster if less than three (3) acres of land area, which is
subject to the zoning that he can petition himself, can be identified.
The applicant can pay the $2,000 application fee, the comprehensive plan
hearings can be combined with zoning hearings and a decision can be made
on how to proceed with that one item. It can then be sent to D.C.A.
It was the consensus of the Commission to table this item until
it can be reviewed further between Mr. Kovacs and the City Attorney.

ter landscape requirements relating to abutting properties, internal

property for Fire Station No. 5, seconded by Dr. Alperin. Upon roll

sion voted as follows: Mr. Mouw - Yes; Dr. Alperin - Yes; Mr. Andrews -

Agreement. The Commission is to consider approving an addendum to
Amendment No. 3 to the Mausoleum Sales and Development Agreement with
Prearrangements of Delray, Inc., increasing the loan amount from the
City by $4,800 to $52,800 for the construction of the mausoleum. City
Manager recommends approval.
The City Manager stated the major changes with Prearrangements
of Delray will be contracting with the contractor to build the mausole-
um. The contractor had not anticipated the need to provide a perfor-
mance bond because this will be built on City property and ultimately
becomes the City's mausoleum. The City will require performance bonds
of $3,000 out of the $4,800 for the provision for the performance bond.
Mr. Mouw moved approval of the addition of the contract for
$1,800 to cover the first three (3) items as listed on the proposal,
that the contract be awarded without the performance bond and that City
staff take whatever necessary precautions to protect the City, seconded
by Dr. Alperin. Upon roll call the Commission voted as follows: Dr.
Alperin - Yes; Mr. Andrews - Yes; Mr. Randolph - Yes; Mayor Lynch - Yes;
Mr. Mouw - Yes. Said motion passed with a 5 to 0 vote.

year, renewable, contract with Universal Beach Service, Corp. for beach
cleaning services in the amount of $62,000. Funding is available in

The City Manager stated there is no CPI adjustment for the
first three (3) years. If the Commission chooses at the end of three
years to extend the contract for an additional three years, it can be
extended under these terms or renegotiated with a 7% annual cap.
-22- 9/24/91
Mayor Lynch stated he would rather have an annual cap for the
CPI as opposed to a three year period.
Mr. Andrews moved for approval of the beach cleaning contract,
as amended by the Mayor, seconded by Mr. Randolph. Upon roll call the
Commission voted as follows: Mr. Andrews - Yes; Mr. Randolph - Yes;

Boxing Federation.
Leroy Andrews, resident, stated he was concerned whether or not
there would be enough room for both basketball and boxing.
Mary Randolph, 105 N.W. llth Avenue, stated the facility where
the boxing is to be held is too small.
It was the consensus of the Commission (4-1) to agree to the
concept of the boxing program; however, there is a need to find a
suitable location to have this boxing program.
9.K. Resolution No. 72-91. Resolution No. 72-91, requesting the

received from Ms. Mulholland with regard to Carver Middle and S.D. Spady
Schools. He would like to go on record stating that he opposes the
letter, and is angry that it was written as both schools .are fine
institutions. He stated he takes exception to the stigmatizing of the
entire black community as a high crime area.
Dr. Alperin stated despite what was contained in her letter,
