A regular meeting of the City Council of the City of Delray
Beach, Florida, was called to order by Mayor Doak S. Campbell in the
Council Chambers at City Hall at 7:08 P.M., Tuesday, November 12, 1985.
1. Roll call shewed:
Present - Council Member Malcolm T. Bird
Council Member Marie Horenburger
Council Member Arthur Jackel
Council Member Jimmy Weatherspoon
Mayor Doak S. Campbell
Absent - None
Also present were - City Manager James L. Penni~is'ton and
City Attorney Herbert W.A. Thiele.
2. The opening prayer was delivered by Council Member Jimmy
Weatherspoon.
3. The Pledge of Allegiance to the flag of the United States of
America was given.
4. Mrs. Horenburger moved for approval of the minutes of the
Regular Meeting of October 22, 1985 and Special Meetings of October 15,
1985 and October 28, 1985, seconded by Mr. Bird. Upon roll call Council
voted as follows: Mr. Bird - Yes; Mrs. Horenburger - Yes; Mr. Jackel -
Yes; Mr. Weatherspoon - Yes; Mayor Campbell - Yes. Said motion passed
with a 5 to 0 vote.
5.a.1. Mrs. Carol Burns, representing Sunshine Place II Day Care
Center, stated that she was approved by the Planning and Zoning Board in
July, by City Council in August and by the Community Appearance Board
two weeks ago. Still, she has been unable to pull her building permit
and she just learned she is scheduled to appear before the CAB again
tomorrow night. It was her understanding she had received final approv-
al at the last CAB meeting. Upon question by Mayor Campbell, she
advised that the building is nearly finished.
The City Manager advised that the problem began when Mrs. Burns
started construction of a day care facility without any permits. At
that time the Building Department issued a cease and desist order.
Mr. Jim Johnson, Chief Building Official, advised that they
have been waiting for all of Mrs. Burns' submissions; it was only a week
ago when they had finally received all the documents required. Now it
is scheduled for CAB. Her last appearance before CAB was for fence
approval only. The appearance before that was part of the conditional
use procedure. In response to Mrs. Burns, he explained that it is
normal procedure for people involved in construction to periodically
check with the Building Department to see how their plans are doing and
to find out when they are scheduled for CAB. Upon question by Mayor
Campbell, Mr. Johnson advised that Mrs. Burns will be able to get her
permit after the CAB Meeting tomorrow night.
Mrs. Horenburger stated it seems to her they were doing Mrs.
Burns a favor by having her before CAB twice, letting her go forward
with the fence and landscaping while they waited for the information
needed for building approval. This seems like a case of misunderstand-
ing on Mrs. Burns' part. Mr. Jackel agreed and suggested that Mr.
Johnson contact Mrs. Burns and explain once more what she has to do.
Upon question, the City Manager explained that the minutes of that last
CAB meeting talk specifically about the fence.
5.a.2. Mr. O'Connor, representing PROD, expressed concern over the
crime problem in Pines of Delray, Rainberry Lakes and Villas of Rain-
berry Lakes. There were 43 break-ins within the last 3 months. They
are asking Council to do what it can to alleviate this condition.
5.a.3. Mr. O'Connor stated that PROD is anxious to see the City
beautified in its e~tiret~. It is their understanding that $2,000 was
raised by Hamlet with the intent of beautification contiguous to Hamlet.
They feel it would be unfair to expend that money in any other place.
The City Manager advised that the money has been set aside in a
fund specifically for beautifying that section; it has not been co-
mingled with any other funds.
5.a.4. Mr. Lester Rosenbloom, Villas of Rainberry Lakes, discussed the
crime in his area and the trauma of being victimized by a burglar.
Mr. Bird advised that every uniformed individual asked for in
this year's budget was approved. He recommended that these communities
being burglarized commit to setting up crimewatch programs. Mayor
Campbell asked the City Manager to meet with the Police Chief to confirm
the number of break-ins and to determine whether it might need a special
investigation. The City Manager advised that they have done that and
Sergeant St~fano has been making sure the crimewatch programs are
operating. Further, they are trying to put their manpower into the
proper time frame and people will be assigned to surveillance for a
certain period of time.
Ms. Cathy Hauser, head of Crimewatch at Villas of Rainberry
Lake, asked Council to assess the number of policemen to the population
growth they have.
Mr. Joel Port, Villas of Rainberry Lake, noted that they have
not only had 43 break-ins, but they have had continuous vandalism as
well. On several occasions they have called the police and the police
have done nothing but chase the vandals away. They would like them to
take names so they can prosecute.
Mayor Campbell suggested that if there is a specific incident
like that that they contact him personally. He will undertake a correc-
tion if there is a problem in the Police Department.
Mrs. Shirley Loenberg, Rainberry Bay Security Director, stated
that they have Crimewatch and 24 hour security but they still have
crime. She feels the Police Department is not doing all it could do.
Mr. Carl Harmel, representing Board of Directors of Rainberry
Lake, commended the Police Department for the exceptionally good re-
sponse they have received to calls in their area. Members of their
Board met with members of the Police Department today and on November
25th they are starting their Crimewatch program.
A young woman from the audience stated that the last two
break-ins in her area were made in the bedroom where her daughter
sleeps.
5.a.5. Mr. Tom Haenlon, 613 N.E. 4th Street, stated he learned that
the Winn Dixie store on N.E. 1st Street will be closing in January. He
is concerned that the people who shop and cash checks there will have to
go to the Publix on N.E. 4th Street. He feels it is incumbent on the
Administration, Council and the Chamber to do everything possible to
keep that Winn Dixie store open.
5.a.6. Mr. Haenlon stated that this past Saturday there was some
paving done at the Atlantic Plaza. There was a strong wind that day and
the machine they were using created a dust that raised as high as the
telephone poles and extended all the way down to Federal Highway. The
sidewalk is in now and he feels they should be told to get their grass
in as quickly as possible and get it looking presentable.
5.a.7. Mr. Haenlon stated he attended the County Commission meeting
where the City made its plea for the Courthouse project on Atlantic
Avenue. He complimented the members of the Administration who spoke and
particularly complimented Mr. Bird for being so positive and erudite in
his remarks and in his responses. He left that meeting feeling that
they will get the Courthouse on Atlantic Avenue.
- 2 - 11-12-85
5.a.4. Upon question by Mr. Weatherspoon, the City Manager advised
that there is a regular patrol unit in that area. Mayor Campbell stated
this is the first he has heard of the extreme problem in that area. He
recommends scheduling it for workshop as this is not the time to get
into it in depth.
It was the consensus of Council to put this on a workshop
agenda for consideration.
The City Manager advised that he received the information only
yesterday from the Police Department and had a briefing on it this
morning. He and Council need information. If people cannot reach him,
he has an Assistant and three secretaries who will take down informa-
tion.
Mayor Campbell stated that there is no area of the City that
does not have their utmost consideration. They are going to do every-
thing within their power and will look into increasing their police
force, changing their schedules and whatever else is necessary to make
their citizens feel safe in their community.
Mayor Campbell declared a recess at 7:52 P.M. The meeting
reconvened at 7:58 P.M.
5.a.8. Mr. Mike Botos, 919 N.W. 2nd Avenue, stated that he has two
annexation petitions, one filed in March and one in June, which were
supposed to be on tonight's agenda and which are known as the Garfield
annexations. These petitions have been bantered back and forth between
the Clerk's office, his office, and Planning and he would like a commit-
ment from Council that it will not be passed over again.
The City Manager suggested that they consider it on First
Reading at a Special Meeting prior to next Tuesday's workshop meeting.
Council concurred.
Mr. Bird asked if this will allow them to complete the 30 day
advertising process in order to pass the ordinances on final reading by
the 2nd regular meeting in December. The City Clerk advised there will
be enough time.
5.b.1. Mr. Weatherspoon stated that Council authorized lighting at
Merritt Park a few months ago and asked for an update on it. The City
Manager advised that it has been bid and is scheduled to be completed by
January 1st.
5.b.2. Mr. Weatherspoon stated that he mentioned several weeks ago
'about an 8.3 acres owned by the County that needs mowing. Nothing has
happened and he questioned this. The City Manager advised he has a
meeting with the County on Thursday with regard to all County land in
Delray Beach.
5.b.3. Mrs. Horenburger moved to appoint Elaine Roberts, alternate, as
a regular member of the Communit~ Appearance Board, seconded by Mr.
Weatherspoon. Upon roll call Council voted as follows: Mr. Bird - Yes;
Mrs. Horenburger - Yes; Mr. Jackel - Yes; Mr. Weatherspoon - Yes; Mayor
Campbell - Yes. Said motion passed with a 5 to 0 vote.
5.b.4. Mrs. Horenburger advised that they have received information on
various Youth Councils which have been successful and she will be
discussing this with their new Parks & Recreation Director on Thursday
and with the Human Relations Committee next Tuesday for input. Hope-
fully, they will have a recommendation at the next regular meeting.
5.b.5. Mr. Bird stated he has a concern over a stipulation in the
Zoning Ordinances which permits in multi family jurisdictions the
building of a duplex on any platted lot. The effect of that in many
areas, because the lots are very small, is to have a dramatic increase in
the net density. They all recognize the housing need; however, this
situation should at least be reviewed by the Planning and Zoning Board.
That did not take place with the four duplexes across the street and the
net effect of that in an RM-6 area is to build RM-14. He feels those
- 3 - 11-12-85
kinds of uses need to be reviewed to make sure they do not have a
negative impact. He recommended, in the short term, they direct staff
that in the case of a duplex that would exceed the authorized zoning
that it be reviewed by Planning and Zoning.
Mr. Bird moved that those plans be directed for Planning and
Zoning for review; if they have no problem with them they will send them
back to the Building Department; if there is a problem they should go
through the process, seconded by Mr. Jackel. Upon roll call Council
voted as follows: Mr. Bird - Yes; Mrs. Horenburger - Yes; Mr. Jackel -
Yes; Mr. Weatherspoon - Yes; Mayor Campbell - Yes. Said motion passed
with a 5 to 0 vote.
5.b.6. Mr. Bird suggested they make a formal expression of their
commitment with regard to the Courthouse. He recommends sending a
letter to the County from the Mayor stating that Delray Beach will
ensure that adequate land and parking is made available not only to the
Courthouse in its 1st phase but will continue to make sure that in its
subsequent growth adequate provisions are made.
Mr. Bird moved that such a letter be written and sent, seconded
by Mr. Weatherspoon. Upon roll call Council voted as follows: Mr. Bird
- Yes; Mrs. Horenburger - Yes; Mr. Jackel - Yes; Mr. Weatherspoon - Yes;
Mayor Campbell - Yes. Said motion passed with a 5 to 0 vote.
5.b.7. Mr. Bird stated that when they approved the Camino Real Hotel
they authorized only a hotel and a restaurant and did not approve any
ancillary uses. So an ice cream shop, sundry store, reservation desk,
car rental service, etc. within the hotel would not be approved uses.
He suggests an amendment be made to allow those kinds of uses which
routinely are found in hotels as ancillary uses. Discussion was had on
how to accomplish this. The City Attorney recommended modifying the
definition of hotel to allow those uses. Council concurred and directed
the City Attorney's office to prepare the change and bring it back to
Council.
Upon question by Mr. Bird, the City Attorney advised that the
Administration will not be prosecuting anyone there for lack of an
occupational license pending this change.
5.b.8. Mr. Jackel moved to appoint Mr. Thaddeus Cohen, architect, and
Judge Irving Kendall, layperson, as alternate members of the Code
Enforcement Board, seconded by Mr. Weatherspoon. Upon roll call Council
voted as follows: Mr. Bird - Yes; Mrs. Horenburger - Yes; Mr. Jackel -
Yes; Mr. Weatherspoon - Yes; Mayor Campbell - Yes. Said motion passed
with a 5 to 0 vote.
5.b.9. Mr. Jackel moved to appoint Mr. Joel Port, engineer, as a
regular member of the Code Enforcement Board, seconded by Mr.
Weatherspoon.
Mayor Campbell stated that he has committed to nominating the
appointment of Mr. David Cohen who is presently an alternate member as a
regular member when an opening occurred on this board. Mr. Jackel
stated that Mr. Cohen is not an engineer. Mr. Bird wanted an opportuni-
ty to talk with Mr. Port regarding the subject of Code Enforcement.
The motion and second were withdrawn.
5.b.10. Mr. Jackel moved to appoint Mrs. Lillian Feldman as an alter-
nate member of the Community Appearance Board. Said motion died for
lack of a second.
Mayor Campbell noted that they were also given Harvey Brown's
resume for this opening. Mrs. Horenburger stated she has told Mr.
Brown that she would be in favor of his appointment. Mr. Jackel felt
Mr. Brown would serve well on another Board but not on CAB.
5.b.ll Mr. Jackel stated that the City is trying to eliminate crime
along West Atlantic Avenue; however, they have crime all over the City.
He hopes the Mayor expands this effort City-wide.
- 4 - 11-12-85
With regard to the beautification of West Atlantic Avenue
between Homewood Boulevard and Military Trail, Mr. Jackel would like to
see this area given top priority. This area has been neglected for many
years. Mayor Campbell stated that he asked several people working on
that beautification to contact Mrs. Davila regarding weeds in the
median. He added that while West Atlantic Avenue is extremely impor-
tant, it is no more or less important than any other part of the City.
Hopefully, the Committee studying beautification will come up with a
plan that will allow them to proceed with all of those areas at the same
time, similar to what they are doing in Boca Raton.
5.b.12 Mayor Campbell advised he had requested a plan to try to
eliminate some of the loitering on West Atlantic Avenue. He felt that
if they could get cooperation from the owners of vacant properties where
these vehicles park, they might be able to control the situation. The
City. Attorney has drawn up an authorization form to be submitted to
those property owners designating that the City's Police Department is
authorized to keep people off their property.
The City Attorney added that this program has not been tested
but they feel that it is certainly worth a try. What it amounts to is a
bulk use of the Trespass Statutes. By entering into agreements and
providing the property owners with necessary signage, they will be able
to take steps when problems arise.
Council discussion was had regarding the sign. Mr. Sam Portnay
suggested they consider posting tow-away zone signs for the same result.
Mr. Bird felt metal signs would be an expensive proposition and for the
pilot program recommended that they start out with paper signs.
Mr. Bird moved to authorize the City Manager to send the
letters, seconded by Mr. Weatherspoon. Upon roll call Council voted as
follows: Mr. Bird - Yes; Mrs. Horenburger - Yes; Mr. Jackel - Yes; Mr.
Weatherspoon - Yes; Mayor Campbell - Yes. Said motion passed with a 5
to 0 vote.
5.b.13. Mayor Campbell stated that he has a request from the Beautifi-
cation Committee for the appointment of Mr. Louis Currier.
Mr. Jackel moved for the appointment of Mr. Louis Currier to
the Beautification Committee, seconded by Mr. Bird. Upon roll call
Council voted as follows: Mr. Bird - Yes; Mrs. Horenburger - Yes; Mr.
Jackel - Yes; Mr. Weatherspoon - Yes; Mayor Campbell - Yes. Said motion
passed with a 5 to 0 vote.
5.b.14. Mayor Campbell presented a proclamation proclaiming November
14, 1985 as "Career Day". Barbara Smith accepted the proclamation on
behalf of the Chamber of Commerce.
5.b.15. Mayor Campbell presented a proclamation inviting citizens to
light porchlights, candles or other lights from dusk to dawn on November
19 and 20, 1985, to openly display their desire for world peace.
5~c.1. The City Attorney requested that Ordinance No. 124-85 relative
to garbage and trash, be added to tonight's agenda as Item 35.
5.c.2. The City Attorney stated that with the recent Charter change,
people running for office will have to designate which Council seat they
are running for in the March 1986 election. He suggested Mr. Jackel's
seat be #2, Mr. Weatherspoon's #4, Mr. Bird's #1 and Mrs. Horenburger's
#3. Upon question he advised that even seats are for even years and odd
seats for odd years and added that these will be the permanent seat
numbers.
Mrs. Horenburger moved to designate seat numbers as outlined by
the City Attorney, seconded by Mr. Jackel. Upon roll call Council voted
as follows: Mr. Bird - Yes; Mrs. Horenburger - Yes; Mr. Jackel - Yes;
Mr. Weatherspoon - Yes; Mayor Campbell - Yes. Said motion passed with a
5 to 0 vote.
Before roll call, the City Attorney explained that prospective
Council petitioners will have to now pick up new petitions that have the
- 5 - 11-12-85
Council Seat numbers on them and a separate petition form for the
Mayor's seat. To clarify, he added that a petitioner cannot have more
than one outstanding at one time, i.e., it's one or the other. If a
petitioner decides to change seats, he would need separate complete
nominating petitions.
At this point the roll was called to the motion.
5.b.16. Mayor Campbell asked the City Attorney if it is necessary to
call roll on every motion they make; can they have a voice vote on some
motions. The City Attorney advised that they must have a roll call on
all ordinances; on other motions, some require a roll call. Mayor
Campbell asked the City Attorney to look into it and get back to him.
5.d.1. The City Manager asked Mr. Pontek, Public Utilities Director,
to speak on the project at 1325 S. Ocean Boulevard which involves an
increase in water consumption.
Mr. Robert Pontek, Public Utilities Director, stated that they
have a 1.3 acre parcel at that location. There is an existing water
main tap that services the existing single family unit. The request
before them is to increase and add an additional tap for which they do
not have a water service agreement. The secondary request is to con-
tinue to use the existing water tap and to use a water surge tank to
collect the water on-site and redistribute it to the applicant's proposed
development of 9 condominium type units. They need direction from
Council on whether or not they must have the water service agreement for
an increase in use.
Mr. Greg Vonberg, representing the developers, stated that they
did try to annex into the City. His plan fit within all Code require-
ments of the City which allows up to twelve units in RM-15 zoning;
however, the Planning and Zoning Board at a workshop meeting felt that
six units would be more appropriate. That is the reason they chose to
stay in the County. They have submitted a plan for a holding tank which
is acceptable. He is not asking for an increased line; they want the
one inch water lateral to continue in use on the property. What he
needs is a letter from Council stating either yes, he can continue to
have the one inch water lateral or, no, he cannot.
Council discussion was had at this time. Mayor Campbell stated
that if the Planning and Zoning Board felt that was an appropriate
density for that site, he would have to back them up. He has no problem
allowing continued use of the line as it exists now but with no surge
tank. The City Attorney advised that in order to provide service to the
additional units, the City would require him to enter into the water
service agreement. He would then have to construct his project in
accordance with City Codes. If he does not want to enter into the
agreement, water service will no longer be provided and he will have to
go to the County.
Mr. Bird moved that in order to provide service to the addi-
tional units, the developer would be required to enter into the water
service agreement and would then have to construct his project in
accordance with City Codes; if the developer chooses not to enter into
the agreement water service will no longer be provided, seconded by Mrs.
Horenburger. Upon roll call Council voted as follows: Mr. Bird - Yes;
Mrs. Horenburger - Yes; Mr. Jackel - Yes; Mr. Weatherspoon - Yes; Mayor
Campbell - Yes. Said motion passed with a 5 to 0 vote.
Upon question by Mr. Vonberg, Mayor Campbell stated that he
will be provided with a letter to that effect. The City Manager stated
he will have the letter prepared tomorrow.
5.d.2. The City Manager recommended holding a groundbreaking ceremony
for the Public Safety Building on December 3, 1985 at 9:00 A.M. Council
concurred.
5.d.3. The City Manager advised that this is the second year the
City's Finance Department has won the "Certificate of Conformance in
Financial Reporting" Award. He explained that this award is the highest
form of recognition in governmental accounting and he is very, very
- 6 - 11-12-85
proud of their Finance Department and Mr. Huddleston. He presented the
Certificate and the Plaque.
6. Mr. Bird moved for agenda approval with the addition of Item 35
'to be Ordinance No. 124-85, seconded by Mr. Jackel. Upon roll call
Council voted as follows: Mr. Bird - Yes; Mrs. Horenburger - Yes; Mr.
Jackel - Yes; Mr. Weatherspoon - Yes; Mayor Campbell - Yes. Said motion
passed with a 5 to 0 vote.
7. Presentation relative to establishment of Consumer Affairs
Board (Alfred Straghn). Mr. Straghn, Chairman of the Human Relations
Board, discussed the possibility and need for a City Consumer Affairs
Board. He outlined the problems the County Consumer Affairs is having
with backlog of work and a low budget. They had to take the two workers
they had in the South County and put them back in West Palm Beach; so
the South County Board is closed. They feel a need to help protect
their citizens; he cited used car salesmen preying on their female
citizens, as an example. If Council decides not to have a City Consumer
Affairs Board, they will ask Council to use its influence to reopen the
South County office.
Mr. Bird stated that that function goes beyond the borders of
any given community. Also, a City Consumer Affairs Board would be
ineffective because many businesses would not fall within their juris-
diction. Since the South County complex will soon be dramatically
expanded, he suggests that Council exert its effort to reinitiate the
County's facility which would be available to the entire South County
community. Mayor Campbell suggested they draft a resolution to the
County to reopen the South County Consumer Affairs and send a copy of
that resolution to other civic and political organizations in the South
County.
Mr. Jackel noted that one of the problems the County Consumer
Affairs has is lack of funding. An expanded courthouse will not solve
that problem. He will go along with the suggestion made and added they
should give the County a reasonable period of time to comply with the
request. Then, if the County does not, he suggests consideration be
given to using volunteers.
Mrs. Elaine Roberts, 312 N. Swinton Avenue, stated that Mr. Bob
Ferrell, the new Chairman of the South County Council of Governments has
just entered the meeting. Perhaps at their request, he would try to put
it on the next agenda.
It was the consensus of Council to prepare the resolution as
suggested by Mayor Campbell. Mayor Campbell thanked Mr. Straghn.
8. Report on the progress of the Chamber Sign Committee (Ken
Rohan). Mr. Ken Rohan, Service to Business Committee Chairman, spoke
with regard to the grandfathering-in provisions of the sign ordinance
which ends December 17, 1985. Through Jim Johnson's office they were
able to get information on the 240 violators and categorize them. They
were surprised to find that many fell into categories such as under the
canopy signs, setback problems, roof signs, too large, too small, etc.
They felt they should look at the intent of the sign ordinance which was
adopted ten years ago to see if all of those things are still objection-
able today. They are recommending several changes to the sign ordinance
which they have submitted to Council. They ask that Council not enforce
the violations while considering these changes.
Mr. Rohan stated tha~ c~nce the sign ordinance is properly
written, staff may be able to approve or deny many signs and lighten the
workload of the Community Appearance Board.
Mr. Bird stated that he does not believe it was the intention
of the Sign Ordinance Committee in 1976 not to have any signs on Atlan-
tic Avenue; however, the way the ordinance currently reads is that no
sign is permitted in the setback. All buildings along Atlantic Avenue
are in the setback therefore the signs on them would be in violation.
The intent is to put that kind of enforcement in abeyance pending a
completed review of the sign ordinance and the recommendations from the
- 7 - 11-12-85
Committee. This will give them the opportunity to reduce the 240
violations down to a reasonable number.
Mr. Bird moved that these changes be adopted by staff for the
purpose of identification of signs that will be in violation on December
18, 1985 and they will be guided by these provisions until such time as
a rewritten ordinance is available, seconded by Mrs. Horenburger. Upon
roll call Council voted as follows: Mr. Bird - Yes; Mrs. Horenburger -
Yes; Mr. Jackel - Yes; Mr. Weatherspoon - Yes; Mayor Campbell - Yes.
Said motion passed with a 5 to 0 vote.
Before roll call, upon question by Mr. Jackel, Mr. Bird stated
that the intent is to do a lot of clarification to the sign ordinance
and he expects it will probably not be completed until the 1st of the
year.
At this point the roll was called to the motion.
Mr. Bird thanked the Committee for its contribution to this
effort.

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.
Ms. Teresa Bildt, CRJ Investments, felt that the new fee
schedule is extremely high. She noted that it reads $10.00 for each
value of $1,000 worth of construction. She presently has a project
going on in the City of Delray Beach. Based on the current fee schedule
it would cost her $21,000 in permit fees; based on the proposed ordi-
nance it would cost her $150,000 in permit fees. She further noted that
the $100,000 fee went up from $440 per $100,000 value to $1010 per
$100,000 value; over $100,000 went up from $1.50 per thousand to $10.00
per thousand.
The City Manager advised that this ordinance is based on the
Boynton Beach plan and it has been under research for a little over a
year. Mr. Bird stated that not so long ago they went to Court on the
question of a fee charged; at that time they could not adequately
demonstrate that the fee bore a relationship to the costs incurred so
they chose to settle. He would like to delay final passage of this
ordinance and in the meantime see if they can justify the fees. Upon
question by Mrs. Horenburger, Mr. Ferrell, Vice-Mayor of Boynton Beach,
stated that Boynton has had a few complaints but no problems over its
ordinance. The City Attorney stated it is his understanding that these
fees have been costed out by the Building Department.
The public hearing was closed.
Mr. Bird moved to defer this item to the Council meeting of
December 3, 1985, for final consideration by Council, seconded by Mr.
Jackel. Upon roll call Council voted as follows: Mr. Bird - Yes; Mrs.
Horenburger - No; Mr. Jackel - Yes; Mr. Weatherspoon - Yes; Mayor
Campbell - Yes. Said motion passed with a 4 to 1 vote.
Before roll call the following discussion was had: The City
Attorney suggested that although they are delaying the ordinance, that
they keep the effective date as November 22, 1985 for the increase in
fees. Mrs. Horenburger had a problem with postponing this.
At this point the roll was called to the motion.
lla. Automotive Uses in the SC Zoning District (Ordinance No.
115-85). Mr. Roger Saberson asked Council to clarify its intentions
with regard to the applicability of Ordinance No. 115-85, the moratorium
on automotive uses, which is the next agenda item. He represents the
owner of property on the Northwest corner of Lindell Boulevard and
Federal Highway. They had plans prepared in February, 1985, and the
project engineer has met will all necessary City staff and has revised
plans accordingly. They had not yet reached the point where a building
permit was issued and when Council's motion was adopted, they were
frozen in their process. Many times in the past, when adopting new
ordinances, Council has exempted people who were making good faith
efforts in the process to obtainapermit and whose efforts could be
documented.
The City Attorney explained that Council's direction to staff
was that the conditional use requirement is applicable to all properties
which were not utilizing automotive uses on May 28, 1985. Mr. Saberson
is requesting that Council expand that to be applicable to those prop-
erties which were either utilized on May 28, 1985, or had building
permits being processed with the City as of May 28, 1985.
No Council action was taken at this time.
Mayor Campbell and Mrs. Horenburger left the Council Chambers
at this time and Deputy Vice-Mayor Weatherspoon took the chair.

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. The public hearing was closed.
Mr. Jackel moved for the adoption of Ordinance No. 118-85 on
Second and FINAL Reading, seconded by Mr. Weatherspoon.
Mr. Bird asked that they amend the appropriate paragraph, where
it identifies the size of spaces, to reflect that lots currently in use
for this purpose would be permitted under the terms of this ordinance as
well. The City Attorney advised that would be a modification to Section
30-8.6(d) (2) to add the language "or if they are otherwise in being as
of November 12, 1985".
Mr. Bird made a substitute motion to adopt Ordinance No. 118-85

Council voted as follows: Mr. Bird - Yes; Mr. Jackel - Yes; Mr. Weather-
spoon - Yes; Vice-Mayor Horenburger - Yes. Said motion passed with a 4
to 0 vote.
Before roll call, Mr. Bird explained that the purpose of the
modification is because he is not sure they measured every lot out
there. He would not want somebody to put his mobile home on his lot and
suddenly find himself in violation. This way, if the lot is currently
in use for this purpose even if it's under the minimum size, it is
legal.

agenda, seconded by Mr. Bird. Upon roll call Council voted as follows:

REGULAR AGENDA
18. Automobile for City Manager. Council is to consider award of a
contract to the low bidder, Jeff Crippen, in the amount of $12,189.85
for a 1986 Oldsmobile Delta 88, with funds to come from the 1985/86
budget. Approval is recommended.
Upon question by Mr. Jackel as to why they are purchasing from
a non-local dealer, the City Manager explained that they received three
bids, Dan Burns, Jeff Crippen and Cooper. Dan Burns was the high bid
and Jeff Crippen was the low bid. Based on that, they could approve the
award as is or they could pass on these bids and go back out to bid,
confining it to local dealers.
Mr. Bird stated he would like to have seen the bid documents
for this item. Further, he feels that if an item is worthy of being on
their agenda then Council and interested persons deserve backup. Mr.
Bird suggested they identify the requirements of the vehicle and go back
out for bid from a dealer within the City of Delray Beach. Mr.
Weatherspoon questioned the legality of doing this. The City Attorney
stated there is some authority for giving preference to bidders who fall
into certain specialized characteristics such as minority business or
local business to a certain extent. He suggests that Council reject
these bids, revise the specs and bid it out.
Mr. Bird moved that all bids be refused, seconded by Mr.
Jackel. Upon roll call Council voted as follows: Mr. Bird - Yes; Mrs.
Horenburger - Yes; Mr. Jackel - Yes; Mr. Weatherspoon - No; Mayor
Campbell - Yes. Said motion passed with a 4 to 1 vote.
23. City Council Meeting - December 10, 1985. Council is to
consider changing the date for the second Regular Council Meeting in
December from December 10th to December 17th.
Mayor Campbell explained that the National League of Cities
Meeting is on December 7th through 12th and several members of Council
are attending.
Mrs. Horenburger moved to change the date for the second
Regular Council Meeting in December from December 10th to December 17,
1985, with no meeting of any kind to be scheduled on December 10, 1985,
seconded by Mr. Weatherspoon. Upon roll call Council voted as follows:
Mr. Bird - Yes; Mrs. Horenburger - Yes; Mr. Jackel - Yes; Mr.
Weatherspoon - Yes; Mayor Campbell - Yes. Said motion passed with a 5
to 0 vote.
24. Additional Parking - Atlantic Plaza, Ltd. Council is to
consider authorizing execution of an agreement between the City and
Atlantic Plaza, Ltd. relative to additional parking requirements for the
Atlantic Plaza Project.
The City Attorney explained that in the approval of this
project, there were a number of spaces required by the new parking code.
Mr. Simon's request is to approve an agreement that would put in abey-
ance his payment of the in lieu parking fees for those extra spaces
based upon his company having acquired the option on a parcel of proper-
ty on the northeast corner of N.E. 1st Street and N.E. 7th Avenue.
Mayor Campbell recalled their saying that Mr. Simon did not need to pave
those spaces until a future time determined by the City if he acquired
the lot. The City Attorney stated there are a number of areas in the
agreement that need to be resolved between his office and Mr. Simon; he
outlined several of them.
- 15 - 11-12-85
Mr. Jackel was in favor of the agreement. Mr. Bird stated his
only concern was With the time frame of two years. Upon question by
Mayor Campbell, the City Attorney advised that Mr. Simon needs approval
in concept and agreement that building permits may be issued pending
final execution of this document.
Upon the request of Mayor Campbell, Mr. Simon stated he would
be willing to wait until the Special Meeting next Tuesday.
Mrs. Horenburger had a concern over the conditional use re-
quirement. She does not see how they can have an agreement with Mr.
Simon stating that at some future time he can have parking on a piece of
property currently zoned residential. Mayor Campbell stated all they
are saying is that Mr. Simon would not need x number of spaces as
required by the Code if he bought this particular lot. Further, they
said it was their intent not to require Mr. Simon to pave those spaces
until a later time. Mrs. Horenburger was concerned that at a future
time there might be a different Council and Planning & Zoning Board who
felt differently about granting this conditional use. She would like
the City Attorney to consider this point in his discussions with Mr.
Simon and make a determination as to whether this needs to be made
conditional use now or whether it can hang.
Mr. Simon stated he is prepared to go to conditional use
application immediately if that is Council's desire.
It was the consensus of Council to direct the City Attorney to
proceed to negotiate with Mr. Simon and come back to Council next
Tuesday with an agreement.
25. Warranty Deed - Delray Beach Elementary School. Council is to
consider acceptance of a warranty deed from The School Board of Palm
Beach County for a portion of the Delray Beach Elementary School proper-
ty at the southeast corner of North Swinton Avenue and N.E. 1st Street.

burger. Upon roll call Council voted as follows: Mr. Bird - Yes; Mrs.
Horenburger - Yes; Mr. Jackel - Yes; Mr. Weatherspoon - Yes; Mayor
Campbell - Yes. Said motion passed with a 5 to 0 vote.

sive Plan. Council is to consider action relative to notifying the
State Department of Community Affairs that the City will submit the
required evaluation and appraisal report on its Comprehensive Plan when
it submits the updated plan.
Mrs. Horenburger moved to notify the State Department of
Community Affairs that the City will submit the required evaluation and
appraisal report on its Comprehensive Plan when it submits the updated
plan, seconded by Mr. Weatherspoon. Upon roll call Council voted as
follows: Mr. Bird - Yes; Mrs. Horenburger - Yes; Mr. Jackel - Yes; Mr.

award of a contract to the low bidder, Kenland Company, in the amount of
$1,310 per month for janitorial services for City Hall, with funds to
come from the 1985/86 budget.
Mrs. Horenburger moved to award the contract to Kenland Com-
pany, seconded by Mr. Weatherspoon. Upon roll call Council voted as
follows: Mrs. Horenburger - Yes; Mr. Jackel - Yes; Mr. Weatherspoon -
Yes; Mayor Campbell - Yes. Said motion passed with a 4 to 0 vote.
Before roll call, upon question by Mr. Jackel, the City Attor-
ney advised that the owner is Kenneth Durante. The City Manager added
that they are changing companies because they have not been pleased with
Sunshine. They have heard good reports on Kenland Company.
- 16 - 11-12-85
At this point the roll was called to the motion.
28. Police Facility Project. Council is to consider award of a
contract to the low bidder, Milne & Nicholls, in the amount of
$3,157,600 for the Police Facility project, with funds to come from the
General Obligation Bond for Public Safety Facility.
Mr. Weatherspoon moved for award of the contract to Milne &
Nicholls in the amount of $3,157,600 for the Police Facility Project,
seconded by Mrs. Horenburger.
The City Attorney advised that, as part of Council's motion,
they need the authority to add an addition to the contract depending on
how the insurance specs come in on builders risk. If they can get it
for less, they will do it themselves; otherwise, they may have the
contractor add the builders risk insurance into the amount of the
contract.
Mr. Weatherspoon amended his motion to approve the contract as
presented with the exception that a change order would need to be
accomplished to add the cost of builders risk insurance if the City
requires the contractor to provide it, seconded by Mrs. Horenburger.
Upon roll call Council voted as follows: Mrs. Horenburger - Yes; Mr.
Jackel - Yes; Mr. Weatherspoon - Yes; Mayor Campbell - Yes. Said motion
passed with a 4 to 0 vote.
29. Appeal to Decision of Community Appearance Board - Mobil Mart.
Council is to consider an appeal of a CAB decision regarding signs at
the Mobil Mart, located at the corner of Linton Boulevard and Military
Trail.
The City Manager advised that they have been asked to remove
this item from the agenda as the attorneys were unable to be here.
Mr. Bird returned to the meeting at this time.
30. Forcemain 60 - Contract Revision. Council is to consider an
increase of $26,928 in the contract amount by Barile Excavating and
Pipeline Company, Inc., for a total contract price of $189,444. Force-
main 60 will be relocated to prevent damage to existing mature vegeta-
tion.
The City Manager advised if they followed the original plans,
they would be taking down a series of trees along Lowson Boulevard.
They have negotiated with Barile to relocate that line away from the
trees. They have not given notice to proceed on the project yet. When
the City first asked for the change, Barile gave them a figure of
$45,000. The engineers negotiated it down to $26,928. He definitely
recommends moving it away from the trees.
Mr. Jackel noted that at the time they awarded this contract to
Barile, he and the Public Utilities Director both stated that this was
not the best contractor to hire because of previous experience. Since
it is necessary to move the forcemain and since the work has not begun,
he suggested they go out to bid again. He sees only trouble ahead with
this contractor and feels they should get out of this contract while
they have the chance.
Mr. Pontek stated they went on site and made the determination
that that line should be relocated. They have purposely delayed the
asphalt restoration along Lowson to coincide with the project because
the relocated line would take about three feet of asphalt out and would
cause one way travel on that rOad for some time. He advised that on the
original scope of work the next lowest bidder was $23,000 higher than
this bidder.
Mr. Bird was concerned that if at some point in the future they
should four lane Lowson Boulevard, that forcemain would be under a
driving lane; that would make it very expensive to maintain. He felt
they should consider that and look into alternative locations. Further,
he does not feel he has enough information to make a decision now and
suggested this be put on the agenda for the November 19th meeting.

It was the consensus of Council to postpone further considera-
tion of this item until the meeting next Tuesday.
31. Drainage Project - Heron Drive at Albatross Road. Council is
to consider the purchase of a 10 foot drainage easement in the amount of
$4,000 from Lindell Boulevard to the C-15 Canal to provide outfall for a
drainage system to relieve flooding at the intersection of Heron Drive
and Albatross Road. Funds are to come from the 1985/86 budget.
Michael Marino, 501 Heron Drive, stated he has owned his home
since 1978 and it has been flooded twice, on April 24, 1979 and on
December 16, 1983, both caused by rising water due to rainfall and
causing him property damage and loss.
Mr. Church advised that the easement is across private property
between two homes at the end of Albatross at Lindell Boulevard. They
proposed that site because it is clear and there is 30 feet between the
two buildings which would enable them to construct the drainage pipe and
acquire that easement to the canal. The other alternative is to go
approximately 225 feet to the west where there is an existing 6 foot
drainage easement, which is where they originally had it proposed.
Because the buildings were only 20 feet apart, they would have needed to
put in sheet piling and they estimated that the project would cost
$40,000 more at that location. Upon question by Mayor Campbell, Mr.
Church advised they would be paying the $4,000 to a party named Mr.
Marsh; i.e., approximately $3.00 per square foot.
Mr. Bird moved to approve the plan as presented including the
acquisition of the right-of-way and acceptance of the appropriate
easement deed, seconded by Mrs. Horenburger. Upon roll call Council
voted as follows: Mr. Bird - Yes; Mrs. Horenburger - Yes; Mr. Jackel -
Yes; Mr. Weatherspoon - Yes; Mayor Campbell - Yes. Said motion passed
with a 5 to 0 vote.
