relative to annexing a 1.34-acre parcel, subject to RM-10 (Multiple
Family Zoning) District, located on the east side of A1A between Brooks
Lane and Lewis Cove, if these streets were extended eastward, is before
Council for consideration on Second and FINAL Reading. It is zoned RM
(Multiple Family Residential District, Medium Density) in the County and
designated MF-15 (Multiple Family-15 units/acre) on the City's Land Use
Plan. The Planning and Zoning Board recommend approval, subject to RM
District with a maximum of six dwelling units on site; Planning Depart-
ment recommends approval subject to the RM (Medium to Medium High
Density Dwelling) District with a maximum of eight dwelling units on
site. Prior to consideration of passage of this ordinance on Second and
FINAL Reading, a public hearing has been scheduled to be held at this
time.
The City Manager presented Ordinance No. 71-86:
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF DELRAY
BEACH, FLORIDA, ANNEXING TO THE CITY OF DELRAY BEACH A
PARCEL OF LAND LOCATED IN SECTION 21, TOWNSHIP 46 SOUTH,
RANGE 43 EAST, WHICH LAND IS CONTIGUOUS TO EXISTING
MUNICIPAL LIMITS OF SAID CITY, SAID LAND IS LOCATED ON
THE EAST SIDE OF STATE ROAD A1A, BETWEEN BROOKS LANE AND
LEWIS COVE, IF THESE STREETS ARE EXTENDED EASTWARD;
REDEFINING THE BOUNDARIES OF SAID CITY TO INCLUDE SAID
LAND; PROVIDING FOR THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF SAID
LAND; PROVIDING FOR THE ZONING THEREOF; PROVIDING AN
EFFECTIVE DATE.
(Copy of Ordinance No. 71-86 is on file in the official Ordi-
nance Book)
The City Attorney read the caption of the ordinance. A public
hearing was held having been legally advertised in compliance with the
laws of the State of Florida and the Charter of the City of Delray
Beach, Florida.
Alan Ciklin, representing the petitioner, stated that several
months ago his client appeared before the Planning Board and City
Council asking for 12 units per acre and four stories. It was decided
at that time that 12 units was too intense. Since then a recalculation
has been done and they are now making a request for eight units, the
bottom level of which would be parking with two living stories above.
He presented a graphic, prepared by Mr. Currie's office, showing the
transitional nature of the structures in the area. He felt the Aus-
trailian Pines separating the site would act as a buffer. He also
presented pictures showing the geographic area of the surrounding
buildings, indicating these particular eight units are compatible to the
neighborhood. Mr. Ciklin stated he felt the eight units would have
little impact as far as traffic, water and sewer use, police protection,
etc.
Elizabeth Matthews, 1024 White Drive, requested Council hold to
only six units for this site as recommended unanimously by the Planning
and Zoning Board.
Betty Sellers, Lewis Cove, stated that she would like for the
City to maintain a single family semblance to that particular area.
Mr. Noe, 1105 S. Ocean Blvd., who lives two houses north of the
property under discussion, urged Council to consider what the Planning
and Zoning Commission stated as its final decision.
Mr. Ciklin stated at this time the parcel of ground is the last
piece not in the City in this particular area. The density is less than
6 units per acre on this site. The City has designated this as RM-15,
which on the ocean is totally compatible, but they have reduced their
request considerably, to eight.
Pauline Noe, 1105 S. Ocean Blvd. expressed concern about access
to and from the property especially during the season when traffic on
A1A increases.
The public hearing was closed.
Mrs. Horenburger moved for the adoption of Ordinance No. 71-86
on Second and FINAL Reading, subject to RM District with a maximum of 6
dwelling units on site, seconded by Mr. Weatherspoon. Upon roll call
Council voted as follows: Mr. Bird - No; Mr. Dougherty - Yes; Mrs.
Horenburger - Yes; Mr. Weatherspoon - No; Mayor Campbell - Yes. Said
motion passed with a 3 to 2 vote.
Before roll call the following discussion was had:
Mr. Weatherspoon asked how many stories were allowed in the RM
District. Mayor Campbell replied the height was irrelevant because
three stories are allowed regardless of the number of units. That would
be reviewed at site plan.
Robert Currie stated there was an inconsistency. An RM 6
zoning only allows a 2 story building; residential R-1AAA allows three
stories.
The City Attorney clarified that the motion on the floor is to
approve Ordinance No. 71-86, except that Section 4 be modified to read
RM with a maximum of 6 units.
Mr. Weatherspoon stated that would not allow them to go three
stories.
-2- 11/25/86
Mr.· Bird stated if it were zoned RM-10, the height would then
become a site plan issue both as to height and density.
Mayor Campbell stated the only reservation he might have is
that this property could be sold tomorrow; if it is zoned RM-10, they
have to be very definite as to the number of units.
Mr. Dougherty asked exactly how many acres are involved or what
portion of the land is really buildable. His understanding is that 1.3
acres include a substantial portion of beach area, which is not build-
able.
Mrs. Horenburger replied there is a coastal construction
setback line and construction can be right to this line.
Mr. Ciklin assured them the site plan presented earlier did
indeed comply with all the construction line setbacks.
Upon request from Mr. Bird, the City Attorney read the portion
of the current ordinance in Section 4. He stated they would be changing
it from RM-10 to RM and designating the Planning and Zoning Board's
recommendation of 6 units. Under the flexible zoning they would specify
the number of units in the ordinance on second reading.
Mr. Bird made a substitute motion that Ordinance No. 71-86 be
approved as read with a stipulation from the petitioner that he would
limit the number of the units on the sight to eight by a deed restric-
tion, or some other legal device which would put all subsequent purchas-
ers on notice that they may not exceed that density. Said motion died
for lack of a second.
At this point the roll was called to the original motion.
Mrs. Horenburger left the Council Chambers at this time.

The public hearing was closed.

- Yes; Mrs. Horenburger - Yes; Mr. Weatherspoon - Yes; Mayor Campbell -
Yes. Said motion passed with a 5 to 0 vote.
Before roll call the following discussion was had:
Mayor Campbell questioned the legality of adopting an ordinance
with conditions. The City Attorney stated he feels that conditions
should not be attached to rezonings if they deal with the site and
development plan or conditional uses that may go on a particular site
based on its zoning. Whether Council wishes to do so is a policy issue,
but he does not feel it is appropriate. Mayor Campbell questioned if it
was appropriate to do so at the time of site plan approval; the City
Attorney advised that it would be.
Mr. Handler expressed confusion because the City Attorney's
recommendation at the First Reading was to include the conditions as set
forth in the Planning Department's memorandum of July 3, 1986.
-5- 11/25/86
Mrs. Horenburger stated she feels both the City Attorney and
Mr. Handler are correct; while it may be technically inappropriate, she
did not feel it was inappropriate to this rezoning to include those
assurances to the public, as they will be included in the site plan
review. She does, however, have a problem with the rezoning and what is
proposed and also the time frame of the development with regard to
getting the 1-95 Interchange between Linton and Yamato.
At this point the roll was called to the motion.

Mayor Campbell returned to the Council Chambers at this time.
William Boos, representing the applicant, stated they perused
the recommendations of the Planning Staff, pursuant to their memorandum
to the Council dated November 6, 1986, in which they recommended 9
specific conditions of approval. Those have been incorporated in the
recommendations for the site plan and will appear on the Agenda as Item
No. 39. They are in agreement with all the conditions, plus the ones
that have been added to the list for the site plan approval. The
project has been reviewed at the Community Appearance Board level and
Planning and Zoning Board level; all the requirements and requests for
revisions and changes have been made and they are asking for Council's
approval.
Phyllis Plume, Planning and Zoning Board Member, stated that
the majority of the Planning and Zoning Board feel there is no reason
why this property cannot be developed R-1AA or possibly RM-6, given the
choice between residential and commercial. The current residents of the
area feel their drainage problems will be solved by going through this
site plan and rezoning process. They would like the area to remain
low-keyed and tranquil in character. The Land Use Policy Guide states
that over commercialization of intersections of arterial roads should be
avoided, and that Land Use Plan changes and rezonings from residential
should be discouraged unless a market study shows a compelling benefit.
This has not been proven. Every time they create another retail shop-
ping center, they weaken the downtown city area, to which we are all
-8- 11/25/86
dedicated to revitalizing. They have not seen sufficient evidence to
justify the need for this rezoning.
The public hearing was closed.

(Copy of Ordinance No. 85-86 is on file in the official Ordi-
nance Book)
The City Attorney read the caption of the ordinance. A public
hearing was held having been legally advertised in compliance with the
laws of the State of Florida and the Charter of the City of Delray
Beach, Florida.
Helen Coopersmith, 1222 So. Drive Way, asked for the definition
of a Community Facility. She was told that it included jails.
Sheryl Stolzenberg, Planning Department, stated that the
permitted and conditional uses that will be allowed under this district
are listed and no other uses would be permitted; a jail is not one of
those uses.
The public hearing was closed.
Mr. Weatherspoon moved for the adoption of Ordinance No. 85-86
on Second and FINAL Reading, seconded by Mr. Bird.
Mr. Bird stated he has a problem concerning giving blanket
waivers of height. The procedure in the City permits them to grant
waivers on height where a hardship or an unusual need is demonstrated;
he can find no reason why any category should be exempted from that
requirement.
Mr. Bird suggested that paragraph I be struck and that they
reinsert language in the ordinance which would require following the
same height policy that exists for all other zoning districts.
Mr. Bird stated they have had an application from a County
Commissioner saying that the rules should be modified, specifically for
the Courthouse. When he asked about specific data including site plan,
size of the building, etc., it showed a building having some 75,000
square feet of space. That exceeds every courthouse study he has seen
for the South County area. He feels that if they need that additional
space, they should to be able to justify it to the Board of Adjustment.
Mr. Bird made a substitute motion to approve the Ordinance on
Second and FINAL reading, amending that paragraph to show the height for
all buildings be 48 feet, but application for Board of Adjustment may be
made for a greater height.
The City Attorney asked if Mr. Bird wanted the standard lan-
guage, which would be no building or structure would be constructed to
four floors or 48 feet.
Mayor Campbell stated the way it stands now the ordinance
allows for 60 feet for the Courthouse and Mr. Bird suggested going back
to 48 feet. Upon question by Mrs. Horenburger, Mr. Bird felt that
government should follow its own rules and we need no specific exemp-
tion.
-10- 11/25/86
Mrs. Horenburger explained that Council has done that for
numerous people who were concerned about ceiling height and she could
see no problem with a government entity asking for the same considera-
tion when we have given it to private developers on occasion and she has
no problem with the way it is written.
Mr. Weatherspoon agreed with Mrs. Horenburger; when talking
about Community Facilities, he did not feel they should have to go
through the bureaucracy just to get the additional requirement.
Mayor Campbell explained that they still have to go through
site plan process and Council has the final authority on what that site
plan will be and they can do a lot of controlling to the site plan and
it is not necessary to make the County go through another hoop of our
bureaucracy. As a courtesy to the County, in trying to expedite the
process to get it moving, he felt we should not put a road barrier just
to show we can. If it is changed to where it can be waived by the City
Council in approving the site plan on the Courthouse, then there should
be a consensus.
Mr. Bird then amended his substitute motion to approve
Ordinance No. 85-86 on Second and FINAL Reading amending the language to
reflect a height above 48 feet must be approved by this Council speci-
fically at time of site plan approval upon a demonstration of need for
all CF Districts, seconded by Mr. Dougherty. Upon roll call Council
voted as follows: Mr. Bird - Yes; Mr. Dougherty - No; Mrs. Horenburger
- Yes; Mr. Weatherspoon - Yes; Mayor Campbell - Yes. Said motion passed
with a 4 to 1 vote.
Before roll call the following discussion was had:
When asked by the City Attorney if there was to be a maximum
cap, Mr. Bird replied, "Sixty feet".
Mr. Dougherty reminded Council of the numerous meetings con-
cerning the Courthouse, and since then there have been repeated changes.
He could see no stopping place if this were allowed.
Mayor Campbell suggested that since many of the representations
were made by the County Commissioners, particularly Dorothy Wilkin, they
need to reiterate to the Commissioners their promises and why they
needed this.
Sam Schwimer, Pines of Delray, remarked that nearly five years
ago a group of citizens got over 4,000 signatures on a petition request-
ing City Council to limit the height on buildings to 48 feet. They have
allowed Atlantic Plaza to have a building with 58 feet. If Council
continues this, eventually it will get to the point where anyone will
get what they want, regardless of height.
Helen Coopersmith, representative of PROD, stated they feel
Council should let the County know there is a definite height limit of
48 feet.
At this point the roll was called to the motion.
20. Ordinance No. 88-86 - Amendinq Code - Industrial Waste and
Pretreatment. Ordinance No. 88-86, amending Chapter 29 "Water and
Sewers" of the Code of Ordinances to provide for regulation for indus-
trial waste and pre-treatment, is before Council for consideration on
Second and FINAL Reading. Prior to consideration of passage of this
ordinance on Second and FINAL Reading, a public hearing has been sched-
uled to be held at this time.

laws of the State of Florida and the Charter of the City of Delray
Beach, Florida. The public hearing was closed.
Mrs. Horenburger moved for the adoption of Ordinance No.88-86

voted as follows: Mr. Bird - Yes; Mr. Dougherty - Yes; Mrs. Horenburger

21. Ordinance No. 90-86 - Changing the City's Land Use Plan Desig-
nation (Lehman). Ordinance No. 90-86 relative to changing the City's
Land Use Plan Designation in the Comprehensive Plan for a 2.317-acre
parcel from MF-10 (Multiple Family), 10 units/acre to C (Commercial),
located on the south side of Lindell Boulevard, between U.S. Highway 1
and Dixie Highway, is before Council for consideration on First Reading
and First Public Hearing. Prior to consideration of passage of this
ordinance on First Reading, a public hearing has been scheduled to be
held at this time.
The City Manager presented Ordinance No. 90-86:
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF DELRAY
BEACH, FLORIDA, CHANGING THE CITY'S LAND USE PLAN DESIG-
NATION IN THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN FOR A PORTION OF THE
PLAT OF TROPIC PALMS NO. 1, AS RECORDED IN PLAT BOOK 25,
PAGE 99 OF THE PUBLIC RECORDS OF PALM BEACH COUNTY,
FLORIDA, TOGETHER WITH A PORTION OF BLOCK 7 OF DEL RATON
PARK, ACCORDING TO THE PLAT THEREOF AS RECORDED IN PLAT
BOOK 14, PAGES 9 AND 10 OF THE PUBLIC RECORDS OF PALM
BEACH COUNTY, FLORIDA, FROM MF-10 (MULTIPLE FAMILY) TO
C-COMMERCIAL. THE SUBJECT PROPERTY IS LOCATED ON THE
SOUTH SIDE OF LINDELL BOULEVARD, BETWEEN U.S. HIGHWAY NO
1 AND DIXIE HIGHWAY; AMENDING THE LAND USE PLAN; PROVID-
ING AN EFFECTIVE DATE.
The City Attorney read the caption of the ordinance. A public
hearing was held having been legally advertised in compliance with the
laws of the State of Florida and the Charter of the City of Delray
Beach, Florida.
Donald Hassler, 644 Jaeger Drive, stated he objects to the
rezoning of the parcel due to the fact they understand the applicant
wants to use it as an automobile dealership and it is an entrance to
Tropic Palms.
-12- 11/25/86
Frank Ellis, 649 Jaeger Drive, stated he feels the traffic is
heavy enough without adding anything commercial which would possibly
increase it.
Maxwell Miner, 635 Jaeger Drive, objected to the possibility of
another automobile dealership on the parcel.
The City Attorney reminded Council that the Ordinance before
them at this time is for a Land Use Designation to C-Commercial, not the
rezoning or a conditional use approval.
Lawson Turner, 517 Heron Drive, objected also to a car dealer-
ship, stating that they would end up with a building surrounded by a
fence with barbed wire that is located at the entrance to their develop-
ment. The rear end of these buildings usually house all the cars that
are to be repaired and looks like a junk yard.
Roger Saberson, representating the applicant, stated that the
remainder of this property is already Commercial. The City has been
studying the appropriate location for automobile dealerships, and one of
the recommendations is that these uses be located on Federal Highway
south of Linton Blvd.
The public hearing was closed.
Mr. Dougherty moved for denial of Ordinance No. 90-86 on First
Reading. Said motion died for lack of a second.
Mr. Bird moved for the adoption of Ordinance No. 90-86 on First
Reading, seconded by Mr. Weatherspoon. Upon roll call Council voted as
follows: Mr. Bird - Yes; Mr. Dougherty - No; Mr. Weatherspoon - Yes;
Mayor Campbell - Yes. Said motion passed with a 3 to 1 vote.
PROCEDURAL ITEMS
Mrs. Horenburger returned to the Council Chambers at this time.
22. Mr. Bird moved for approval of the minutes of the Regular
Meeting of October 28, 1986, and the Special Meetings of November 4,
1986 and November 6, 1986, seconded by Mr. Weatherspoon. Upon roll call
Council voted as follows: Mr. Bird - Yes; Mr. Dougherty - Yes; Mrs.
Horenburger - Yes; Mr. Weatherspoon - Yes; Mayor Campbell - Yes. Said
motion passed with a 5 to 0 vote.
23.a.1. Mrs. Hornburger moved that Charles F. Hill be reappointed to
the Police and Fire Board of Trustees for a three-year term ending June
30, 1989, and John Trantor be appointed to fill the unexpired term of
John Howell ending April 22, 1988, seconded by Mr. Bird. Upon roll call
Council voted as follows: Mr. Bird - Yes; Mr. Dougherty - Yes; Mrs.
Horenburger - Yes; Mr. Weatherspoon - Yes; Mayor Campbell - Yes. Said
motion passed with a 5 to 0 vote.
Before roll call the following discussion was had:
Mr. Bird asked if there had not been a change during the last
legislative session affecting the membership and composition. The City
Attorney stated they have officially taken the position that the Board
composition, as it currently exists, may remain, and that the Police and
Firefighter Bills that went through do not require them to make any
changes.
23.a.2. Mrs. Horenburger stated it has come to her attention that there
have been numerous parking tickets issued just south of the curve on
A1A. The City Manager advised he has been alerted about the situation
and it has been taken care of.
23.a.3. Mrs. Horenburger stated at the Treasure Coast Regional Planning
Meeting in Stuart, on Friday, they approved some County Land Use amend-
ments; one of them was the Commercial Designation for Lots 17-19, Block
35, Del Raton Park. The City took the position that the logical bound-
ary for commercial development was Frederick Boulevard. She feels they
-13- 11/25/86
need to communicate with the County to let them know that Council does
not want to allow commercial uses to access onto Florida Boulevard.
Mayor Campbell assured Council he would see that a letter was
sent to the County.
23.a.4. Mr. Dougherty asked for a clarification as to whether or not
the Georgia Town Tavern was a Bottle Club.
The City Attorney replied that it is not a bottle club, it is a
Package Store; a Bottle Club does not sell the liquor, you bring the
bottle to the site. He feels that to allow persons to consume alcohol
on the premises violates their liquor license; however, the ATF disagree
and they are in control.
Mr. Bird asked if there was any reason why they could not have
an ordinance which prohibits the consumption of packaged goods on or
about the premises on which they are sold. The City Attorney informed
him that he would probably have that for First Reading next Tuesday or
on December 16, 1986, at the latest.
23.a.5. Mr. Dougherty asked if the beautification consultant had been
selected as yet. The City Manager advised that the beautification review
committee had selected one, and had planned to make a recommendation to
Council on December 2, 1986. However, since there are only going to be
three members present, and a very busy agenda, he is recommending that
it be taken to the Special Meeting on December 9, 1986. Upon question
by Mr. Dougherty as to why it had taken so long, the City Manager
responded that there were 13 responses to the RFP and all had to be
reviewed.
Mayor Campbell left the Council Chambers at this time.
23.a.6. Mr. Dougherty asked about the status of the Sunshine Fund. The
City Manager advised that Tallahassee and Gainesville have gotten out of
the mode of issuing small amounts. They are now approaching local banks
about borrowing with them under a similar program with very gcod inter-
est rates. It is his anticipation to have a recommendation to City
Council on the 9th of December. Mr. Huddleston, Finance Director, the
City's financial advisors and himself believe the Sunshine Fund is too
big and the City will be better off to borrow locally. The question is
how the City is going to finance its capital improvement program,
whether it be through the Sunshine Pool or through borrowing from local
banks. He does not want the City to get into a situation where it will
have to take a back seat to Tallahassee or Gainesville.
Mayor Campbell returned to the Council Chambers.
23.a.7. Mr. Dougherty stated that Council recently approved the Human
Relations Committee Ordinance revision and each Council Member has an
opportunity to appoint a member.
Mr. Dougherty moved to appoint Jeanette Slaven to the Human
Relations Committee, seconded by Mrs. Horenburger. Upon roll call
Council voted as follows: Mr. Bird - Yes; Mr. Dougherty - Yes; Mrs.
Horenburger - Yes; Mr. Weatherspoon - Yes; Mayor Campbell - Yes. Said
motion passed with a 5 to 0 vote.
23.a.8. Mayor Campbell stated that Council has received a report on the
golf course. There are two items which need Council's consensus, so
that the City Manager can talk with Mr. Simon about revising his plan.
(1) He does not believe they intended to put a swimming pool out there
when we have a public swimming pool at Atlantic, and (2) it was never
the intent in relocating the tennis center at the golf course to have
to go out and buy property. If Council is in agreement, they need to
tell the Manager to get with Mr. Simon as soon as possible to revise his
report accordingly. The City Manager advised that the plan has been
revised.
23.b.1 The City Attorney congratulated Assistant City Attorney Kurtz
on the arrival of his new son, Michael Jeffrey.
-14- 11/25/86
Mr. Bird left the Council chambers at this time.
23.b.2. The City Attorney advised that Council has been furnished a
copy of the agreement with regard to Carver Middle School Recreation
area. This item was presented to Council some meetings ago and was ap-
proved with the understanding that should the School Board site be
sold, the School Board would reimburse the City and if the City is the
purchaser the City would reimburse the School Board. Award of the
contract will come before Council next Tuesday or the following Tuesday.
Mr. Weatherspoon moved to authorize execution of the agreement,
seconded by Mrs. Horenburger. Upon roll call Council voted as follows:
Mr. Dougherty - Yes; Mrs. Horenburger - Yes; Mr. Weatherspoon - Yes;
Mayor Campbell - Yes. Said motion passed with a 4 to 0 vote.
Mr. Bird returned to the Council Chambers at this time.
23.a.9 Mayor Campbell stated he met with Dr. Christiansen, whose
family had done a lot on NE 8th Street in developing that property, and
he would like to donate to the City a small plaque and memorial to his
father to be placed along NE 8th Street. As it is in the right-of-way
it is not subject to CAB approval.
23.c.1. The City Manager stated Council has been furnished a copy of
the notice of the Palm Beach County Municipal League 17th Annual Meeting
to be held in Belle Glade on Friday, December 12, 1986 at 12:00 Noon.
23.c.2. The City Manager advised that Mayor Campbell received news from
the State of Florida Department of Community Affairs relative to the
Enterprize Zone Act. Our ranking is now sixth on the list within our
population category, and he hopes that the City will be designated.
23.d. There were no Non-Agenda Items by Citizens.

REGULAR AGENDA
34. Atlantic Plaza Off-Site Parking Agreement. Council is to
consider approval of execution of contract between the City and Atlantic
Plaza, Ltd. which was a condition to the approval for conditional use
and site plan. The property is located at 777 East Atlantic Avenue.
Mrs. Horenburger requested that two minor changes be made on
Page 3, Item No. 3 to read as follows:
(1) when the CITY no longer requires off-site parking on
Parcel B for Parcel A; not the PLAZA; and (2) ATLANTIC PLAZA provides
alternative, lawful off-site parking for Parcel A;
Mrs. Horenburger moved to approve the contract, as amended,
seconded by Mr. Dougherty. Upon roll call Council voted as follows:
Mr. Bird - Yes; Mr. Dougherty - Yes; Mrs. Horenburger - Yes; Mr.
Weatherspoon - Yes; Mayor Campbell - Yes. Said motion passed with a 5
to 0 vote.
35. Mary Chesnick Settlement. Council is to consider settlement of
the City of Delray Beach vs. Mary Chesnick Workers' Compensation Claim
in the amount of $150,000.
The City Attorney stated that he was informed that the City has
not been able to get the final approval necessary from the participating
insurance companies so it would be appropriate to pass this item and it
will be rescheduled.
Mr. Dougherty questioned why they cannot approve or disapprove
it subject to getting the concurrence from the insurance company.
The City Attorney stated that they are only going to pay,
potentially, about $20,000 of the total amount. If Council wants to
approve it as delineated here, they could do so; however he does not
have their approval for that form of participation.
Mr. Dougherty suggested they approve it subject to the net cost
of t~e City being between $17,000 and $25,000. The City Attorney
advised that would be acceptable.
The City Attorney clarified that the motion is to approve
authorizing settlement provided the City's participation does not exceed
$25,000.
Mrs. Horenburger moved for approval, seconded by Mr.
Weatherspoon. Upon roll call Council voted as follows: Mr. Bird - Yes;
Mr. Dougherty - Yes; Mrs. Horenburger - Yes; Mr. Weatherspoon - Yes;
Mayor Campbell - Yes. Said motion passed with a 5 to 0 vote.

-17- 11/25/86
Delray Beach and Boynton Beach, setting forth the terms and conditions
upon which the Cities may discharge wastewater effluent to the POTW's
Regional Treatment facilities.
The City Attorney explained that this was part of the agreement
between the City, the SCRWTD Board and the City of Boynton Beach to
implement the industrial waste pretreatment standards. The ordinance
that Council adopted earlier imposes those requirements on our users.
Since we are a contractor-participant with the Board now those regula-
tions are being imposed on the City as a user to the Board in the same
fashion.
Mr. Bird moved for approval, seconded by Mr. Dougherty. Upon
roll call Council voted as follows: Mr. Bird - Yes; Mr. Dougherty -
Yes; Mrs. Horenburger - Yes; Mr. Weatherspoon - Yes; Mayor Campbell -
Yes. Said motion passed with a 5 to 0 vote.
37. Conditional Use and Site Plan Approval - Sugar Plum Tree II.
Council is to consider a request for conditional use and site plan
approval for Sugar Plum Tree II, a proposed child care facility, located
east of N.E. 2nd Avenue, between Dixie Boulevard and Palm Court. The
Planning & Zoning Board and Planning Department recommend approval,
subject to the following conditions:
(1) The existing building cuts across lot lines. Submit a
Unity of Title for review and approval by the City
Attorney.
(2) The scaled dimensions and written dimensions for setbacks
do not correspond. Correct.
(3) Add a note to the site plan that all irrigation shall be
from a source other than City water.

(1) Designate and provide elevations for retention areas,
including cross sections.
(2) The owner/applicant and project engineer must contact
Carl Howard and Robert Pontek of Public Utilities to
discuss gravity sewer service and the realignment of Old
Germantown Road as the existing water main servicing the
area south of Linton Boulevard is involved.
(3) Provide fire hydrants beginning at the Linton Boulevard
entrance and at 500 feet road travel spacing within the
site, access drive and property perimeter. Show on site
plan and improvement plans.

(4) Replatting required prior to building permit.
(5) Princess Boulevard abandonment must be completed prior to

$10.00 per linear foot of frontage.
CAB Comments
(11) That the seven (7) parking spaces adjacent to the
parts/service building at the end of the entrance aisle
off of Germantown Road be removed and replaced with
landscaping.
Mayor Campbell questioned the screening of the bays. Mr. Digby
Bridges, architect, stated that they would not be able to see the bays
from the road. A portion of the parking is being reserved as an access
for Southern Bell and the equipment for their switching station. This is
the only way they would approve it.
The City Attorney stated the motion should be to approve the
application, as amended, and include the conditions as set forth in the
Planning Department's memorandum of November 19, 1986.
Mr. Bird moved for approval, as advised by the City Attorney,
seconded by Mr. Weatherspoon.
Mr. Dougherty stated that it was his understanding there would
be no ingress and egress from Linton Blvd.
Mr. Bill Wallace, applicant, stated the entryway was to provide
ingress and egress to Southern Bell, but he felt he should be able to
utilize it if necessary.
Mayor Campbell confirmed this would be only for persons going
from east to west and there is to be no turn around for people to go
east.
Mayor Campbell stated that the City could not prevent Southern
Bell from servicing the major sub-station which they have there. He
requested an additional amendment be included so that the boundary on
the east side of the property be landscaped sufficiently to create a
tree line barrier separating the properties.
Mr. Bird amended his motion to include that the boundary on the
east side of the property be landscaped sufficiently to create a tree
line barrier separating the properties. Mr. Weatherspoon amended his
second. Upon roll call Council voted as follows: Mr. Bird - Yes; Mr.
Dougherty - Yes; Mrs. Horenburger - No; Mr. Weatherspoon - Yes; Mayor
Campbell - Yes. Said motion passed with a 4 to 1 vote.
39. Site Plan Approval - Delray Town Center/Delray Town Center
Executive Plaza. Council is to consider a request for site plan approv-
al for Delray Town Center, a proposed 85,105-square foot, retail center
with a free-standing financial institution with drive-through facili-
ties, and for Delray Town Center Executive Plaza, a proposed 98,950-
square foot business and professional office development, located at the
northeast corner of Linton Boulevard and Military Trail. The Planning &
Zoning Board failed to make a recommendation due to a split vote (3-3).
The Planning Department recommends approval, subject to the following
conditions:
-19- 11/25/86
(1) Record a seventy-five (75) foot open space buffer ease-
ment as referenced in the June 10, 1986 letter to
Shadywoods, and show and reference on the site plan by
the Book and Page number. (The City cannot enforce deed
restrictions, so an easement is required.)
(2) That an attempt be made to preserve more than 160 of 564
existing trees as currently shown. That saved trees be
incorporated into the landscape plan. That the layout of
the lake be evaluated toward making minor changes in its
borders to save more trees. That a landscape plan
incorporating these changes be submitted within thirty
(30) days of City Council approval of this item.
(3) That additional right-of-way be dedicated as an easement
along Linton Boulevard and Military Trail to accommodate
an expended intersection of those roads in the future.
Such easement shall be in accordance with the standards
of the City and Palm Beach County. The required land-
scape strips along Linton Boulevard and Military Trail,
however, may include this easement area.
(4) Indicate vehicular stacking distance and traffic direc-
tion for drive-thru bank facility at Delray Town Center.
(5) That any other rights-of-way needed to accommodate the
requirements of the Thoroughfare Protection Plan or any
right turn lanes shown on the site plan be dedicated to
the public, in accordance with the standards of the City
and Palm Beach County.
(6) That a right turn lane be constructed westbound on Linton
Boulevard at Military Trail prior to receipt of the first
Certificate of Occupancy in accordance with the standards
of the City and Palm Beach County.
(7) That right and left turn lanes be constructed on Linton
Boulevard and Military Trail at such entrances as indi-
cated on the site plan concurrent with the construction
of the appropriate driveway, in accordance with the
standards of the City and Palm Beach County. The right
turn lane, into the northerly entrance, on Military Trail
shall be dedicated as an easement concurrent with the
first building permit for the Delray Town Center.
(8) That the site plan data and application data pages be
amended to reflect these changes.
(9) In addition to road impact fees otherwise required, a
contribution shall be made to the City of Delray Beach to
assist in the construction of two additional lanes on
Linton Boulevard and Military Trail (i.e., to ultimately
widen the road from four lanes to six lanes) along the
frontages of the property. To ensure that adequate
roadway capacity is available to serve this development
in the future, such contributions shall be made in
accordance with the following fair share formula:
(a) # external trips X percent of trips assigned to
frontage = # assigned trips.
(b) At divided by capacity of 2 additional lanes (i.e.,
14,000 trips per day) = project percent of addition-
al necessary capacity.
(c) PP X cost of 2 additional lanes for 1 mile ($750,000
or other approved amount) X # miles of frontage =
fair share contribution.
The above contribution shall be calculated for the entire
property and allocated to each parcel and frontage on an
acreage basis, or a separate trip generation/assignment
calculated on each parcel, at the option of the appli-
cant. Such calculation must be approved by the City
prior to plat approval. The amounts so derived from each
parcel shall be paid at the time of the first Certificate
of Occupancy for that parcel. Provided, however, that at
such time as a contract is let for the construction of
the additional two lanes the balance of the total amount
due shall be payable to the City by the owner(s) of the
remaining undeveloped tracts, upon thirty (30) days
written notice by the City.
(10) That the developer shall contribute fifty cents per
square foot for all the office space to be paid to the
-20- 11/25/86
City of Delray Beach at the time of issuance of Certifi-
cate of Occupancy, in addition to any other
road impact fees otherwise required. The funds shall be
placed into a Roadway Trust Fund by the City, and trans-
mitted to Palm Beach County upon establishment by the
County of a special purpose impact fee for the creation
of additional interchange capacity for Interstate 95
within the project's area of impact. Should Palm Beach
County decide not to establish such an impact fee, the
funds shall be used by the City for roadway improvements
within the impact area.
(11) At the time of widening of Linton Boulevard and/or
Military Trail a contribution shall be made to the City
for beautification of the Boulevard and/or Trail. Such
contribution shall defray the cost of irrigating and
landscaping the median on both roadways in accordance
with plans developed by the City. Payment shall be made
upon thirty (30) days written notice by the City of its
intent to begin the project. Such payment shall not
exceed $10.00 per front foot and shall be applied in
accordance with an ordinance to be adopted by the City
which the applicant understands and agrees will be
applicable to this project.
(12) That the property be platted and that the plat be record-
ed prior to the receipt of building permits.
(13) That all improvements are to be completed in accordance
with the approved site plan.
(14) This approval will expire within eighteen (18) months
unless at least twenty-five (25) percent of the total
costs of all improvements to be used in developing the
site and development plan have been made by that time.
If the approval expires, a request for an extension must
be made in accordance with Section 30-22(E) of the Zoning
Code.
William Boos, representing the applicant, presented three
elevations for Council review.
Mayor Campbell stated that there are three conditions he would
like added; 1) that there be no pole signs on the property; 2) a
complimentary green barrier with sufficient trees to grow to a fairly
big size, and 3) to the north, he does not want the rear end of a
shopping center peeking over the wall at Duncan Center. He would like
them to have an impervious green line or do whatever they need to do
with their roof line in order that air-conditioning ducts, etc., will
not be allowed to show. Council concurred.
Mr. Bird moved for site plan approval, subject to the Mayor's
comments, and the Planning Department's October 30 memorandum as amended
by the November 19 memorandum, seconded by Mr. Dougherty. Upon roll
call Council voted as follows: Mr. Bird - Yes; Mr. Dougherty - Yes;
Mrs. Horenburger - Yes; Mr. Weatherspoon - Yes; Mayor Campbell - Yes.

40. Ford Pursuit Vehicles - Police Department. Council is to
consider the award of State contract to Don Reid Ford, Maitland, Florida
for 15 4-door LTD Crown Victoria (S) vehicles at a cost of $161,377.50
($10,086.09 each), with funds to come from the 1986/87 budget. Approval
is recommended.
Mrs. Horenburger moved to approve the contract, seconded by Mr.
Dougherty. Upon roll call Council voted as follows: Mr. Bird - Yes;
Mr. Dougherty - Yes; Mrs. Horenburger - Yes; Mr. Weatherspoon - Yes;
Mayor Campbell - Yes. Said motion passed with a 5 to 0 vote.
41. Recodification - Code of Ordinances. Council is to consider
authorizing execution of agreement between the City and American Legal
Publishing Company for recodification of Code of Ordinances.
The City Attorney stated this was on the agenda to approve the
agreement. In addition to doing so Council will be waiving further
bidding, because he understands there are only two viable entities in
-21- 11/25/86
the State. That is a policy issue. Council has a choice of a single
column, which is Exhibit A and the double column, which is Exhibit B.
The consensus was that Council preferred Exhibit A. Upon question, the
City Attorney reported the actual expenditure would be $27,625.00.
Mrs. Horenburger moved to approve the agreement, seconded by
Mr. Dougherty. Upon roll call Council voted as follows: Mr. Bird -
Yes; Mr. Dougherty - Yes; Mrs. Horenburger - Yes; Mr. Weatherspoon -
Yes; Mayor Campbell - Yes. Said motion passed with a 5 to 0 vote.

The City Manager presented Ordinance No. 97-86:
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF DELRAY
BEACH, FLORIDA, AMENDING CHAPTER 30, "ZONING", SECTION
30-1 "DEFINITIONS", OF THE CODE OF ORDINANCES OF THE CITY
OF DELRAY BEACH, FLORIDA, BY AMENDING SUBSECTION (33)
"FAMILY"; TO PROVIDE THAT "FAMILY" SHALL MEAN ONE OR
MORE PERSONS, PROVIDED THAT, UNLESS RELATED BY BLOOD,
MARRIAGE, OR ADOPTION, NO SUCH FAMILY SHALL CONTAIN OVER
TWO PERSONS; PROVIDING FOR FOSTER CHILDREN IN FOSTER
-23- 11/25/86
HOMES; PROVIDING A GENERAL REPEALER CLAUSE, PROVIDING A
SAVINGS CLAUSE; AND PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE.
The City Attorney read the caption of the ordinance.
The City Attorney stated that Council had another option in
front of them that was distributed earlier. There is an alternate
ordinance which uses the same definition of family, but which has some
additional clarifiers in it. It was suggested that the other alterna-
tive ordinance may be more appropriate or to Council's liking. If they
change their minds later, he can reread it.
Mrs. Horenburger commented that she had problems with both.
The proposed one in the agenda packet read two persons, and they made a
limit on a total of 5 children, both natural and foster. She has not had
an opportunity to read the alternate ordinance.
The City Attorney explained that it had essentially the same
definition but it has inclusions and exclusions.
Mrs. Horenburger felt the alternate was addressing group care
type homes for adults over the age of nineteen, and anyone over nineteen
years of age would be an adult. She felt that when you talk about
foster children you are talking about minor children under eighteen, so
she suggested it should be done differently.
Mr. Dougherty stated that when it first appeared on the work-
shop agenda, Council was defining a family as one that contained three
persons; one of the options gives seven persons and the other gives you
eight persons. He felt they were headed in the wrong direction.
The City Attorney stated that it fits more in line with the
neighboring jurisdictions. Cities of Boynton Beach and Boca, for
example, use this format. He suggested this be postponed to the work-
shop of December 9 for further discussion and he will supply some
additional background.
Mr. Bird moved to postpone the approval until more discussion
has taken place at the workshop of December 9, 1986, seconded by Mrs.
Horenburger. Upon roll call Council voted as follows: Mr. Bird - Yes;
Mr. Dougherty - Yes; Mrs. Horenburger - Yes; Mr. Weatherspoon - Yes;
Mayor Campbell - Yes. Said motion passed with a 5 to 0 vote.
47. Emergency Ordinance No. 98-86 - Moratorium on Residential
Conversion. Ordinance No. 98-86, declaring an emergency and enacting a
moratorium on the issuance of any City approval or permits which approve
of or permit the conversion of properties from commercial uses to
residential uses located in SC, GC, CBD and LC zoning districts, is
before Council for consideration on First Reading. If passed, Public
Hearing will be held on December 16,1986.
The City Manager presented Ordinance No. 98-86:
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF DELRAY
BEACH, FLORIDA, DECLARING AN EMERGENCY AND ENACTING A
MORATORIUM ON THE ISSUANCE OF ANY CITY APPROVAL OR
PERMITS WHICH APPROVE OF OR PERMIT THE CONVERSION OF
PROPERTIES FROM COMMERCIAL USES TO RESIDENTIAL USES WHERE
SUCH PROPERTIES ARE LOCATED IN THE SC (SPECIALIZED
COMMERCIAL), GC (GENERAL COMMERCIAL), CBD (CENTRAL
BUSINESS DISTRICT), LC (LIMITED COM~4ERCIAL), ZONING
DISTRICTS OF THE CITY; PROVIDING THAT SUCH MORATORIUM
SHALL BE EFFECTIVE FOR NINETY (90) CALENDAR DAYS FROM
NOVEMBER 18, 1986 AND SHALL BE APPLICABLE TO ALL PROPER-
TIES NOT HAVING RECEIVED SUCH REQUIRED APPROVALS OR
PERMITS AS OF NOVEMBER 18, 1986.
The City Attorney read the caption of the ordinance.
Mrs. Horenburger moved for the adoption of Ordinance No. 98-86
on First Reading, seconded by Mr. Bird. Upon roll call Council voted as
follows: Mr. Bird - Yes; Mr. Dougherty - Yes; Mrs. Horenburger - Yes;
-24- 11/25/86
Mr. Weatherspoon - Yes; Mayor Campbell - Yes. Said motion passed with a
5 to 0 vote.
Before roll call the following discussion was had:
Upon question by Mr. Dougherty as to the legality of the action
taken by Council the week prior, the City Attorney advised that it was
legal, but needed to be followed up with an ordinance of this nature to
ratify that action. There is no court case in our jurisdiction;
however, we need to do a follow up, as a precautionary measure.
Mr. Dougherty questioned the emergency and Mayor Campbell
responded by explaining that the immediate concern is of people who are
transferring properties, be they residential or commercial, into board-
ing houses in an area of rapid deterioration that is having an adverse
effect on a month by month basis on all the properties around it.
At this point the roll was called to the motion.
Mayor Campbell declared the meeting adjourned at 10:15 P.M.
