Rowing Championships will be held on the Intracoastal from North Palm
Beach to Miami. The sponsors hope to use Delray Beach as a staging site
the second day of the race. He is here tonight to ask for Commission
approval to go ahead and work out an agreement where they can work with
the sponsors on staging this race on the Intracoastal. They are not
asking for any money; however, there may be some staff time involved.
The Commission concurred that they had no problem with Mr.
Weldon working out an agreement.
4.C. Discussion, .City .Manager's Performance Evaluation. Mayor
Campbell stated that they have received some criticisms as to the way
that this matter has finally come to them and he would like to apologize
to the public.
Ms. Brainerd stated that over the past few weeks it was brought
to her attention that there had been some spending irregularities within
the City. As an elected official, she was forced to look into the
situation and act upon what she saw. Yesterday, she had a meeting with
the City Attorney and the City Manager to pursue these irregularities.
Upon investigation, the City Manager agreed that some of the things he
did were not right and assured her that these mistakes will not happen
again. Therefore, it is her recommendation to the Commission that they
do two things: (1) establish fair, measurable performance criteria and a
job description for the City Manager and (2) work with him and measure
his performance against that criteria on a regular basis. By following
these guidelines, she feels they will avoid similar problems in the
future. Ms. Brainerd requested that Pat Bidol come forward and give
them an executive summary of the report she was directed to perform for
the Commission by Mercer Slavin.
235
Dr. Pat Bidol, 7959 Little Lane, Boca Raton, stated she would
like to give the assumptions and major findings of her report so that
the public can understand the dynamics which went into preparing it.
She stated she felt the Commission had legitimate concerns which, under
their statutory requirements, they were required to examine in greater
depth and she believes it would have been helpful if these had been
examined earlier in the Sunshine. She also feels that the staff has not
been able to effectively work under the current conditions up until now;
however, she believes there is hope that they can work in the future.
Dr. Bidol outlined her report further and stated that it is essential
that the top managers and the City Manager are able to trust and work
with each other. She believes that a strong City Manager and Commission
can come out of this situation.
Ms. Horenburger stated this has been a very difficult time for
the City of Delray Beach. They have found themselves in conflict
created by unmet expectations and errors of commission as well as
omission. As a believer in the infinite capabilities of human beings to
overcome their difficulties if they are willing to make a true commit-
ment to resolve the problems they face, she will support every effort
this Commission makes toward that resolution. They need to give the
City Manager a period of time and the opportunity to work with them. now
that there is a clear picture of what brought them to this point. ~ Her
concern is about what is right for the City, not who is right. ~ She
would support a 30, 60 or 90 day period in which they should establish
job description performance standards for the City Manager, further
evaluate the problems with professional assistance and see if they
cannot establish a balance.
Mr. Weatherspoon stated that he feels overall the City Manager
has done an excellent job; however, some of the concerns were far more
reaching than the reorganization problem. He is willing to give the
City Manager, staff and the Commission some time in order to sort things
out.
Ms. McCarty questioned Dr. Bidol on the methods and criteria
she used in preparing her report and Dr. Bidol responded that she
followed the protocol of what would be most fair and equitable. She
interviewed the City Manager and key staff, examined key documents and
received much information. She also did a content issues analysis of
all of the clippings which had been written about the situation.
Upon question by Ms. McCarty at what point the fee and Dr.
Bidol's services were discussed and voted upon, Mayor Campbell stated
they did discuss this at a meeting and he told the City Manager that Mr.
Mercer indicated that Dr. Bidol would be coming in. Ms. McCarty stated
the minutes from that meeting were very explicit and indicated that no
additional fees were to be paid. There was also no mention of a psy-
chologist or outside fees. Ms. McCarty read a prepared statement at
this time.
Ms. McCarty moved that the Commission go on record with a
formal apology and vote of confidence and allow the City Manager to get
on with what he does best. Said motion FAILED for lack of a second.
The City Manager stated when he was hired in December and
started working in January it was clear that the Commission wanted a
results-oriented person and someone who carried with them a strong
personality. He believes this is what he tried to do and in fulfilling
that role it appears that he has had the impact of being dehumanizing.
The necessary thing which has resulted is the need to establish identi-
fiable goals and objectives. He stated if mistakes have been made they
have been mistakes of enthusiasm. He urged that they do address the
issues about the Commission's expectations of his role so that they can
continue to have the good relationship they have had in the past.
The following persons came forward and spoke in support of the
City Manager: Chris Wotten, Leonard Johnson, Paul Steele, Don Doornbos,
Alfred Straghn, Charles Smith, Clay Wideman, Angie Anderson, Mary Lou
Jamieson, Tom Haenlon, Bill Hazzard, David Tyson, Dan Burns and Richard
Barnes.
-2- .9/13/88
236
Mayor Campbell stated he would like to thank Dr. Bidol for her
report as it did hit to the very essence of the problem which the
Commissioners have been facing for weeks. He stated there was not one
thing done, at least by him, which was not done out of the most sincere
conviction. This is not the first or last time this is going to.happen.
He is going to pledge to work with the City Manager as he recognizes
some of the faults have been his and some have been the City Manager's.
The point now is not to dwell on the faults, but to look to the future.
When he placed this on the agenda tonight he did not expect that they
would go to any formal vote of indictment or vindication. He gathers
that Ms. McCarty's motion is intended to help the City Manager save face
and they are not supposed to do that. He would urge that she withdraw
her motion if it was her intent to make the Commissioners wrong for
trying to fulfill their constitutional rights.
Ms. McCarty stated she feels it is essential for the City
Manager in order to continue, that they show him that he has their
confidence. In order to go forward tonight, she will not withdraw her
motion.
Mayor Campbell declared a recess the time being 8:41 P.M. The
meeting was reconvened at 8:52 P.M.

PROCEDURAL ITEMS
7.a.1. Helen Coopersmith, Executive Director of the Progressive
Residents of Delray (PROD), stated that the Commission has been fur-
niShed a memorandum from PROD regarding the Limited Commercial zoning
district. She read the memorandum for the record. She stated they
would appreciate it if the Commission would provide a directive to the
Planning Department to rewrite the LC zoning with some input from the
citizenry. It has been proven that the scope of this zoning ordinance
is far too wide encompassing all commercial uses without limitation.
7.a.2. Francis Bourque stated' she would like to recommend that the
Commission send two representatives of the City to the National Trust in
Cincinnati in October; one staff member and one from the Preservation
Board.
7.b.1. Mr. Weatherspoon stated that in the City Manager's report he
inquired whether or not they were part of the South County Council of
Government. He advised that they are part of that organization and pay
an annual fee.
7.b.2. Mr. Weatherspoon stated, with regard to the request to raise
the fees at the Golf Course, that he feels it is fine to do this as long
as they put something in for the Capital Improvements.
The City Manager advised this will be on next week's workshop
agenda.
7.b.3. Mr. Weatherspoon stated that several times he has brought up
the lack of proper maintenance at the Carver Middle School field. He
would like staff to work something out with the School Board as they
have lost a lot of the good sod due to lack of maintenance.
7.b.4. Ms. Horenburger stated it has come to her attention that they
have a problem with the administrative fee structure presented to the
City by Florence Fuller. They need to take a closer look, ask for the
-4- 9/13/88
238
full budget and make sure they are paying for what they are getting.
She also feels the City should look at becoming their own provider and
establishing the same kind of thing in Delray Beach. She requested that
they get the information and workshop this.
7.b.5. Ms. Horenburger questioned if they have heard from DOT on the
beautification. The City Attorney advised they have not heard from them
yet.
7.b.6. Ms. Horenburger stated the scrub was approved today. She would
like to thank staff for their last minute letter stating that the City
had no history of environmental problems on the site. This was a major
factor in Palm Beach County's consideration.
7.b.7. Ms. McCarty stated they received a memo from'Patricia Healy,
Chairman of the Historic Preservation Board, regarding nostalgic signs
and the fact that they have deemed that this is not in their jurisdic-
tion. Alice Finst made the suggestion that perhaps the Commission
should appoint a short term task force to review all signage pre 1965.
Mayor Campbell suggested that Mrs. Finst get a few people
together as a defacto committee and make a recommendation to the Commis-
sion.
The City Manager stated that he will have the Development
Services staff contact the chairpersons of the Historic Preservation
Board, Community Appearance Board and a Commissioner to identify what
the issues and problems are. They can then come back with a workshop
recommendation.
7.b.8. Ms. McCarty stated, with regard to a memorandum from the City
Attorney's Office, that the City Attorney alluded to working with the
Risk Management Director regarding matters about outside events, how
they are contracted for and set up. She would like to add to the policy
statement which he is making that they add inside events, i.e., the
definition of a City event and what it is.
7.b.9. Ms. McCarty stated that also on the same memorandum the City
Attorney stated that he will be bringing another policy matter to the
Commission regarding individual Commissioners requiring work of staff.
She questioned how long this will take. The City Attorney stated it
should be within the next month.
7.b.10. Ms. McCarty stated she has received a few letters from citizens
who are concerned with the Swinton Avenue rewidening. They have re-
quested that the Commission reconsider its position and she questioned
if they could place this on a workshop so that members of the community
can talk to them.
It was the consensus of the Commission to place this on the
September 20th workshop.
7.b.ll. Ms. McCarty stated that in the City Manager's report there were
12 items which he intends to bring to a workshop. She would like to
know which ones are coming up and which ones are not.
7.b.12. Ms. Brainerd stated it was suggested to her that they consider
waiving their sign ordinances for the merchants on Atlantic Avenue who
are affected by the construction.
Mayor Campbell stated he feels it would be appropriate for them
to make some kind of adjustment. They should first ask staff if they
have some recommendations in equity which would solve this and they
could then come back to the Commission.
7.b.13. Ms. Brainerd questioned if the City Attorney has received a
response to the dossier of memos, the latest dated August 29th, from his
office to Martin O'Shea regarding the Matt Gracey lot matter. The City
Attorney advised he has not.
Martin O'Shea, Chief Building Official, advised he has an
appointment tomorrow to see Matt Gracey on this item.
-5- .9/13/88
239
7.b.14. Ms. Brainerd Stated, with regard to the News for Neighborhoods
newsletter, that they have a four page document and that is not what she
had in mind. She would like to see them reducing it somehow to get it
to a single page document, perhaps double-sided.
Ms. Horenburger and Ms. Brainerd left the Commission Chambers
at this time.
7.b.15. Mayor Campbell stated they are going to be having a Municipal
League Meeting and this Commission has already taken a stand regarding
the two proposed Charter amendments. It is his understanding that they
may be coming in a more amended form. The position taken was that they
would oppose the Charter amendments which merely transferred the power.
If he has the consensus of the Commission, they would still maintain
that position of any Charter amendment, except that if they move in the
direction of recognizing the necessity of utilizing impact fees in
meeting the County budgetary needs, that there would be an opportunity
to possibly vote for a compromise position. The Commission concurred.
7.c.1. The City Attorney stated he has received a request to move Item
25 as the representative has a plane to catch tonight.
7.d.1. The City Manager stated he has received a request from~ Pat
Healy from the Historic Preservation Board to attend a seminar in Tampa.
The cost will only be $300 or $400; however, he is not sure ofI the
Commission's direction regarding training and education for non-
employees. Mayor Campbell stated they have sent people in the past.
The Commission concurred they have no problem sending a Board member to
the meeting.
7.d.2. The City Manager stated, with regard to the engineering bids
they received for continuing engineering services, that one firm was an
hour late in their bid submittal and one was a day late. Since the City
has delayed this matter for so long, and will not be doing the inter-
views until Monday, he is recommending that the Commission waive that
technical defect in their bid.
Frank Spence, Interim Director of Development Services, stated
they are really letters of interest for professional services on ongoing
consulting engineering work.
The City Attorney advised this item will need to be added to
the agenda to formally vote on this.
7.d.3o The City Manager stated next week's workshop agenda will
include the CRA's plan for Atlantic Avenue, west of Swinton Avenue, the
recycling proposal, the golf course rates, the fluoridation of the
City's drinking water and water and sewer extension policy. They can
also do some staff work on the Swinton Avenue scenic area. Ms. McCarty
stated she would like to invite Randy Whitfield from the MPO to come
down and let the Commission know what they are planning for their
revision of the 2010 plan. The other items mentioned in his report have
no schedule as yet.
7.d.4. The City Manager advised they will be having an Executive
Session on Monday at 5:30 P.M., for union negotiations.
Ms. Horenburger and Ms. Brainerd returned to the Commission
Chambers at this time.
8. Mr. Weatherspoon requested that Items 36.J. & 36.L. be removed
from the Consent Agenda and placed on the Regular Agenda.
Mr. Weatherspoon moved to approve the agenda moving Item 25 to
prior to Item 10, consider an emergency resolution approving the pro-
posed resolution from Old School Square to be signed by the City, that
they waive the bid procedure as outlined by the City Manager, and moving
Items 36.J. & 36.L. to the beginning of the Regular Agenda, seconded by
Ms. Horenburger. Upon roll call the Commission voted as follows: Ms.
Brainerd - Yes; Ms. Horenburger - Yes; Ms. McCarty - Yes; Mr.
Weatherspoon - Yes; Mayor Campbell - Yes. Said motion passed with a 5
to 0 vote.
-6- 9/13/88

Mayor Campbell clarified that the Old School Square resolution
and the waiver of the bid procedure are to be placed on the Consent
Agenda.
9. Mr. Weatherspoon moved to approve the minutes of the Special
Meetings of August 16, 1988 and August. 18, 1988, seconded by Ms.
Horenburger. Upon roll call the Commission voted as follows: Ms.
Brainerd - Yes; Ms. Horenburger - Yes; Ms. McCarty - Yes; Mr.
Weatherspoon - Yes; Mayor Campbell - Yes. Said motion passed with a 5
to 0 vote.
REGULAR AGENDA
25. City of Delray Beach vs Booi Services. The CommiSsion is to
consider settlement discussions relative to Marina Delray.
The City Attorney stated the reason this is on the agenda is
that in fact it is not necessarily yet a settlement. They are still
pursuing the lawsuit they have against Booi Services and have a number
of pre-trial things going on. The foreclosure action, when it takes
place, will result in the property being foreclosed and a gentleman by
the name of David Graham will again become the title holder of~ the
property. Mr. Graham has entered into, preliminarily, a contract wi~h a
company for a potential new use to be made of the property which Mould
have to be reviewed by staff. Basically, they wanted to put this o~ the
agenda for direction and to provide some input to Mr. Graham as to the
acceptability of the Commission spending any more time on the subject.
If they feel it is something worth pursuing they can give staff direc-
tion to work on this. If agreed to, it could be a potential method of
settling the lawsuit; the hotel, restaurant and bar function would go
away and the new retirement use, called retirement/hotel use would take
over.
David Graham stated the property has outlived its usefulness;
not only does it conflict with the existing zoning, it has been a sore
point to the Commission. They have entered into an agreement which is
contingent upon the successful foreclosure, which w~ll happen sooner or
later.
Elizabeth Matthews, representing the Beach Property Owners'
Association, stated the people in this neighborhood welcome a compatible
use and, if the Commission feels it appropriate to put an ACLF there,
they will get a lot of blessings from the neighbors.
Mayor Campbell requested that in any actions being done, that
Mr. Graham makes the promise to work very diligently with the City in
addressing some of the past abuses with regard to the abandoned auto-
mobiles, weeds, noise, etc., to try and be a good neighbor.
Upon question by Ms. Horenburger, the City Attorney advised the
conditional use would have to be reviewed by staff. It cannot go
forward until Mr. Graham is able to get the foreclosure; however, that
does not mean the City cannot begin reviewing it in advance and working
it out so that it is ready to go.
ENCLAVE ORDINANCES - FIRST READING (NO PUBLIC HEARING)
10. Ordinance No. 111-88. Ordinance No. 111-88, annexing Enclave
No. 1 located immediately west of Seacrest Boulevard between Gulfstream
Boulevard on the north and N.E. 22nd Street .on the South, is before the
-Commission for consideration on First Reading. If passed, Public
Hearing will be held October llth.
The City Manager presented Ordinance No. 111-88:
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF DELRAY

TRICT; PROVIDING A GENERAL REPEALER CLAUSE; PROVIDING A
SAVING CLAUSE; PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE.
The City Attorney read the caption of the ordinance.
Insrid Eckler, 2750 Seacrest Boulevard, stated that the people
who are annexed are not liable for the bonded indebtedness of the City.
She asked that the Commission give consideration to this.
Charlie Hill, Bonnieview Road, stated he would like some
clarification of a statement in Mayor Campbell's letter of April 21,
1986, which stated that there would be a one time charge of $250 for
sewer hookup. This was supposed to be spread out over a five year
period, at a monthly cost of $4.16. He has a copy of a letter dated
September 1, 1988, which states that the City requires payment of
connection fees in full at the time of connection; there are no arrange-
ments for payment of these fees over time. He questioned which letter
is correct.
Mayor Campbell stated he believes just recently they conf~rmed
that there would be an amortization period for the cost of the hookups.
Linda Oxford, 148 Coconut Road, stated it is her understanding
that the sewer connection cost will increase October 1st from $250 to
$850. She contacted the sewer department to ascertain whether or not
she could pay the fee prior to October 1st and was told she could not as
sewer lines were not available to her property. In her opinion, this
does not seem fair and equitable. She personally, is not opposed to
annexation; however, she is opposed to the implementation the City has
taken. She would appreciate it if the Commission would reconsider the
increase of the fees until they have completed all the annexation
procedures and each individual has had ample time to connect to the
services.
