ment, and in connection with that retirement he will be paid a lump sum
of $90,000. If Chief Kilgore were to work through the end of 1991,
which he has talked about doing previously, the City would pay out
$103,000 in salary and benefits $103,000.

and Remediation Project.

circumstances of that mistake and it is the City's recommendation that
the City Commission award the contract and ask the low bidder to sign
the contract for the amount that they bid.

3. Interlocal Agreement between the City and Palm Beach County
Refining the distribution of the proposed one-half percent "Local
Government Infrastructure Surtax".
With regard to the Interlocal Agreement, Dr. Alperin stated he
hoped the concern has been resolved. He addressed the South County
Council of Governments Meeting where he expressed the same concerns over
the wording of the Interlocal Agreement to assure the voters that the
monies collected by the surtax will go directly to the projects ind-
icated by the bond. The South County of Governments assured him that
they will present, in the very near future, an amended Interlocal
Agreement for the City. That amendment would indicate that these
projects are specifically the courthouse, the jail, and the joint
division of the additional funds for the jailhouses and court facil-
ities.
The City Attorney advised the the County has already issued non
ad valorem bonds for the courts and the jails, in the Interlocal
Agreement it has been stated that it would be one-half cent sales tax
for the next five (5) years and that money would be used for courts and
jails. A letter addressed to Mayor Lynch, signed by the Chairman of the
County Commission states the monies collected from the one-half cent
sales tax would be used to defease or fund the revenue bonds to build a
court and jail.' There is an attachment from the bond statement clearly
defining the project, the square footage of the judicial center,-the
number of bids in the main jail and the number of bids in the Belle
Glade addition. The agenda item presented to the County Commission on
July 31st states the Board unanimously approved the reallocation of the
money presently budgeted for debt service.
Dr. Alperin moved approval subject to the City Attorney's
approval of either this letter or an addendum that both the County and
the City Attorney agree to, seconded by Mr. Andrews. Upon roll call the
Commission voted as follows: Mr. Randolph - Yes; Mayor Lynch - Yes; Ms.
-2 9/5/90
McCarty - Yes; Dr. Alperin - Yes'; Mr. Andrews - Yes. Said motion passed
~with a 5 to 0 vote.
The City Attorney stated it is very important to have this
support from Delray Beach. It is nothing that would be difficult for
the County to state clearly that all the proceeds that we collect would
be used to retire the bonds that were already issued to support the
project.
Mayor Lynch declared the meeting adjourned at 6:20 P.M.
