05-10-83 MAY 10, 1983
A regular meeting of the City Council of the City of Delray
Beach, Florida, was called to order by Mayor Willard V. Young in the
Council Chambers at City Hall at 7:05 P.M., Tuesday, May 10, 1983.
1. Roll call showed:
Present - Council Member Malcolm T. Bird
Council Member Doak S. Campbell
Council Member Arthur Jackel
Council Member Edward L. Perry
Mayor Willard V. Young
Absent - None
Also present were - City Manager Gordon D. Tiffany, and
City Attorney Herbert W.A. Thiele.
2. The opening prayer was delivered by Reverend Donald Mackay,
Cason United Methodist Church.
3. The Pledge of Allegiance to the flag of the United States of
America was given.
4. Mr. Jackel moved for approval of the minutes of the regular
meeting of April 26, 1983 and the special meeting of April 20, 1983,
seconded by Mr. Bird. Said motion passed unanimously.
5.a.1. Robert French, 131 Mockingbird Lane, complimented Council on
a decision they made several months ago to allow, within the City of
Delray Beach, a home for boys between the ages of 10 and 14, which is
now under the guidance of an agency known as the Center for New Direc-
tion.
5.a.2. Elizabeth Matthews, 1024 White Drive, stated that she has
been instructed by the Board of Trustees of her Civic Association to ask
the Administration for an explanation of the circumstances which affect
them relative to the paramedic service. There are four fire stations
within the City of Delray Beach and three paramedic units. They are at
all fire stations except the beach station and they would like to know
by what criteria the Administration decided the beach would not be
provided with paramedic service.
The City Manager stated he feels it would be appropriate if
they spent some time bringing the facts and figures together on response
times and frequency of calls from various areas. They should be able to
reply promptly to the Civic Association's request.
5.a.3. Ralph Dye, 2000 South Ocean Boulevard, questioned whether
the City of Delray is providing free paramedic service to the City of
Gulfstream, and if so, why.
Mayor Young stated that it is his understanding that pre-
sently they are providing Gulfstream with free service. However, nego-
tiations are being proceeded into but as yet have no bearing on what
they are going to do relative to what Gulfstream should pay.
5.a.4. Kathi Sumrall, member of the Clean Community System, thanked
the Administration, employees of the City, Matt Gracey, Jr., Ken Ellings-
worth and Councilman and Mrs. Jackel for their support and full coopera-
tion in a pilot program, devised by the NSA and CCS, to help clean up
the store fronts of Atlantic Avenue.
5.b.1. Mr. Jackel thanked everyone who was involved in the beau-
tification of East Atlantic Avenue. He feels it was a wonderful project
and he would expect to see a great deal more public participation which
will result in a cleaner and more beautiful City.
5.b.2. Mr. Bird stated that, although they have spent a lot of time
this year getting more familiar with the various City departments, he
feels they have neglected to give the Administration a budget policy for
the formulation of this year's budget. He suggested that they should
schedule a meeting, probably within the next two weeks.
The City Manager stated that Council should al so keep in
mind that they will apparently have to reschedule their regular Council
meeting so that all Council members will be present to consider awarding
the garbage and trash contract.
5.b.3. Mayor Young presented and read a proclamation proclaiming
the week of May 21 - 28, 1983, as "Missing Children Week".
5.b.4. Mayor Young presented and read a proclamation proclaiming
the month of May, 1983, as "Senior Citizen Month".
5.c. The City Attorney requested that Ordinance No. 37-83, which
was inadvertently left off the agenda, be considered by Council tonight,
on First Reading, as item 37.
5.d.1 The City Manager requested that item 20. be removed from the
regular agenda and become the first item of business after the Public
Hearing.
6. Mr. Bird moved for agenda approval with the addition of item
37. to be Ordinance No. 37-83 and the repositioning of item 20. to
become the next order of business after item 10., seconded by Mr. Perry.
Said motion passed unanimously.
7. Mayor Young presented City Service Awards to the following:

PUBLIC HEARING
8. Garbage and Trash Service. PUBLIC HEARING for determining
the type of garbage and trash service to be provided to the various
areas of the City.
The City Manager explained that several months ago Council
instructed the Administration to advertise a map for the purpose of
conducting a public hearing to determine the type of garbage and trash
service to be extended to various areas of the City. After considerable
public input they prepared a map and adopted the map which was placed in
the back of the garbage contract they have subsequently bid. At that
public hearing it was determined that the public ought to have one more
chance to study the map before any firm and binding decision was made by
Council. They now have a better idea of the relative prices of the
various types of service; however, this public hearing is not on the
garbage contract, it is simply on the type of service to be provided.
He stated that they have not published the estimated costs, only the
estimated percentage differentials. The rates would be established by
ordinance and there will be a seperate public hearing on that ordinance.
- 2 - 5/10/83
Hu~h Delfs, President of High Point Section 1, stated that
they have been enjoying County Sanitation and have a good rate with
them. One of the types of service which the City is proposing under the
new contract will provide them with the same type of service they are
now receiving. They are not concerned if the City renews the County
Sanitation contract or whether they give it to another contractor;
however, they are concerned that they receive the same kind of service
and rates.
Sam Schwimer, Pines of Delray, stated that when this item
was first discussed they asked for the right to go to the same type of
contract which High Point and Country Manors have. They were told they
did not meet the specifications required. Now they are interested in
cooperating with the City and having a contract through the City pro-
viding they can have the same type of service at no higher prices.
Alfred Reber, 941 Tropic Boulevard, stated he feels that
some provision should be made to have a major size pickup, perhaps once
a month, for trash which does not conveniently fit into plastic bags.
Richard Townsend, 14 S.E. 1st Street, stated he feels that
the City should go to one class of service for everyone. Dividing the
City up into different service levels does not make sense and is not
economical.
Dave Randolph, 105 N.~. llth Avenue, stated that he is
interested in knowing whether his garbage and trash bill will increase
when they go to private contract. He has not seen any stated figures
and he feels before they do anything the citizens need to know what
their bills will be.
Mr. Campbell stated that he felt there would be more people
this evening who wanted to address the map and what type of service they
will be receiving; once the map is in place that is the type of service
they will be receiving and no further discussion will be held on the
matter.
Susan Cohen, 800 N.W. 6th Avenue, stated that she lives in
one of the areas scheduled to receive backdoor/sidedoor pickup. When
the roll-out cart pilot program was started she received one of the
carts and enjoyed using it. She questioned why the entire City cannot
receive roll-out carts.
Nadine Hart, spoke in opposition of the carts stating that
in her neighborhood most of the carts are left by the curbside all day
and are very unsightly.
Mr. Bird moved that the service level map which is attached
to the contract be approved again at this meeting, seconded by Mr.
Jackel. Said motion passed unanimously.
Mayor Young declared a recess the time being 8:00 P.M.
The meeting was reconvened the time being 8:05 P.M.
9. Ordinance No. 24-83 - Homewood and Atlantic Rezoning.
Ordinance No. 24-83, relative to rezoning to RM-6 (Multiple Family
Dwelling) District approval, is before Council for consideration on
Second and FINAL Reading. The property is located at the southeast
corner of Atlantic Avenue and the recently realigned Homewood Boulevard.
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.

20. Conditional Use - West Park Baptist Church. Council is to
consider approving conditional use for West Park Baptist Church, located
east of Barwick Road, between Lake Ida Road and Boulevard Chatelaine.
This was approved by the Planning and Zoning Board by a 5-1 vote (Brown
dissenting), subject to the following conditions:
(1) Engineering Division's memorandum of April 11,
1983;
(2) City Horticulturist's memorandum of April 11,
1983;
(3) That the only conditional use permitted here-
under is as follows: Church or place of wor-
ship, and its attendant educational, child
care, recreational, and columbarium facilities;
(4) That this conditional use approval shall become
void at such time as frequent, regularly sched-
uled worship services cease to be conducted, or
at such time as the operation of this facility
as a church ceases to be the primary use;
(5) That seating be provided for no more than
seventy-four (74) people, or at such time as
the six proposed future parking spaces are
completed, that seating be provided for no more
than eighty-six (86) people;
(6) That development of the thirty-seven (37) space
parking lot with landscaping and the chain link
fence extending from either side of the main
structure to adjacent properites be completed
within ninety (90) days;
(7) That all proposed additions to the site be
eliminated with the exception of the 8' x 12' x
8' utility shed, the parking area, and the
chain link fence;
(8) That no further parking be approved;
(9) That no vehicle over 3/4 ton be parked on the
premises;
(10) That no buses be stored on the property;
(11) That the hours be limited to 6:00 A.M. to 10:00
P.M.;
(12) That the utility shed be properly landscaped;
(13) That there be no increase in outdoor lighting;
and
(14) That revised site plans reflecting the comments
enumerated above be submitted to the Planning
Department.
Mike McDaniel, Planning Director, explained that this peti-
tion is a request for conditional use approval to allow a church in an
existing structure. The Planning and Zoning Board recommended that all
proposed additions to the site, as shown on the plan, be eliminated with
the exception of the utility shed, parking area and the chain link
fence. Since the site plan which they submitted showed the additions
they had recommended be deleted, if Council ratifies their recommenda-
tion then a revised site plan will have to be submitted to the Planning
Department showing those deletions.
Ronald Sales, Attorney representing West Park Baptist
Church, stated that what was approved is a highly restricted use which
would allow only worship services; this church tries to help people more
than in just a religious context. They feel that if it were understood
by the neighbors that this is a facility to which all are welcome then
perhaps there would be no resistance.
Reverend J. Morgan Haynes, Pastor of West Baptist Church,
stated that prior to the church signing a contract for purchase of the
property they did some research to make sure that it would be adaptable
for the particular use they are seeking. At a meeting with the Admin-
istration they made it clear that the church would be purchasing pro-
perty on Carter Road and at some time in the future would be building a
new sanctuary. However, they felt there was a tremendous opportunity for
- 5 - 5/10/83
them to take an existing structure and use it for a family life center
where they could meet and have services. After the meeting they felt
comfortable that they could accomodate and use this property for their
intended use. The church's recreational facilities would be available to
everyone; it would not be a requirement to be a member of the church.
However, it would be necessary for them to realize that they will be
under the supervision and guidelines of the church and this way they can
provide an atmosphere that will be safe and secure. The Church Board
and the homeowners of Chatelaine had a meeting to try and determine what
was reasonable in the site plan and why they objected to certain items.
As they reviewed the site plan they realized that perhaps it was more
concentrated than what would be convenient and they eliminated certain
things. Reverend Haynes presented the original and revised site plans
and described the changes they have made.
Paul Zacks, 740 Place Chateau, stated that they have no
problem with the church being there as a church. %.~at they are con-
cerned about is allowing the church to erect permanent structures partic-
ularly when they will be erecting new facilities within the next few
years on Carter Road. Mr. Zacks quoted from a memorandum to the Plan-
ning Director from the City Attorney which stated he felt that "it would
appear that not only would the recreational facilities not be a lesser
use to the major use of the church but it appears that no church use is
to be made of the property within the immediate future. That being the
case it would appear that a conditional use approval for a church with
attendant, educational and recreational facilities at the subject pro-
perty is inappropriate". Mr. Zacks stated he feels Council should be
bound by the legal opinion of the City Attorney.
Mr. Bird stated that about three years ago the citizens of
Chatelaine requested that the parcel of land in question tonight be made
into a public park; the Council at that time did not approve their
request. He stated that everyone has the right to enjoy their property
in such a manner so as not to abuse their neighbors. He feels that they
could come to some reasonable use of the property. The property owner
has ownership rights some of which are uses he could make of the pro-
perty without the permission of Council at all.
Marie Horenburger, 510 North Swinton Avenue, stated that the
Planning and Zoning Board voted the way they did, with the conditions,
because a family life center is not a conditional use in this zoning
category; however, a church is. Once their sanctuary has been moved to
another location the conditional use of the facility as a church would
no longer be in existence.
Upon question by Mr. Campbell, the City Attorney stated it
is possible, three years from now when the church moves, that any ag-
grieved homeowner from Chatelaine has the ability to petition to Council
or through a court, to enforce the ordinance that the property is no
longer being utilized in accordance with the conditional use approval.
Mr. Perry stated that last Sunday he spent some time in
Chatelaine and spoke to about 14% of the people who are directly in-
volved in this matter. He received not one negative statement about the
church and was very encouraged with what he heard.
Mr. Zacks stated that Council is going to have to make a
decision either to plan three years in advance or be satisfied that in
three years, after the recreational facilities have been erected, the
homeowners can go to court to take them down.
Discussion was had relative to the definition' of "church",
and whether or not, in three years, West Park Baptist Church would still
be considered a conforming use if the only building used for services
was a chapel.
- 6 - 5/10/83
Arlene Martin, 3461 Place Valencay, stated that if this
request is not kept down to the limit of uses which the Planning and
Zoning Board agreed to they are going to see a lot of For Sale signs in
Chatelaine. If there are any more uses allowed on the conditional use it
is going to be very hard to rescind or correct the situation three years
from now.
Mr. Sales stated he would hope that Council will grant this
petition and accept only conditions 1, 2, 3, 5, and 6 as part of the
approval. He feels the other uses would interfere with the use of the
church as a place of workshop and its attendant educational, child care,
recreational and columbarium facilities.
Mr. Bird suggested that, given the residential character of
the neighborhood, conditions 9, 10 and 11 should also be added to the
approval. Following discussion, Mr. Bird stated that if condition 11 ~is
to be retained that hours be limited from 6:00 A.M. to 10:00 P.M. for
outside activities.
Mr. Bird moved to approve the conditional use approval for
West Park Baptist Church subject to the conditions shown on the Planning
Director's memorandum of April 21, 1983, to be shown as items 1, 2, 3,
5, 6, 9, 10 and item 11 with the additional verbage that hours be lim-
ited to 6:00 A.M. to 10:00 P.M. for outside activity and that those be
the only conditions to be imposed, seconded by Mr. Perry.
The City Attorney advised that the motion should also in-
clude that further the construction is in accordance with the site plan
dated January 1983, for West Park Baptist Church, prepared by Ralph
Denuzzio & Associates of Sunrise, Florida.
Mr. Bird amended his motion as advised by the City Attorney,
seconded by Mr. Perry. Upon roll call Council voted as follows: Mr.
Bird - Yes; Mr. Campbell - Yes; Mr. Jackel - No; Mr. Perry - Yes; Mayor
Young - Yes. Said motion passed with a 4 to 1 vote.
The City Attorney stated that before they go to the next
item on the agenda, for the record, applicant and other parties, pur-
suant to the zoning code and as a part of Council policy, no written
decision is rendered other than the certified minutes of the meeting at
which time this was discussed and the motion was carried by a 4 to 1
vote.
Mayor Young declared a recess the time being 9:50 P.M.
The meeting was reconvened the time being 9:53 P.M.
Mr. Bird moved to reconsider the motion on item 20., sec-
onded by Mr. Campbell. Upon roll call Council voted as follows: Mr.
Bird ,- Yes; Mr. Campbell - Yes; Mr. Jackel - No; Mr. Perry - Yes; Mayor
Young - Yes. Said motion passed with a 4 to 1 vote.
Mr. Bird stated that it was the agreement of the petitioner
that he would not park vehicles over 3/4 ton on the property and that no
buses be stored on the property over night. These items were inadvert-
ently included in his motion as being permitted. He would like to
clarify that they are excluded as uses.
The City Attorney advised that the intent is to accept, as
so modified and all the other conditions and statements that went with
the previous motion would remain the same.
Mr. Bird amended his motion as advised by the City Attorney,
seconded by Mr. Campbell. Said motion passed unanimously.
- 7 - 5/10/83

Mr. Perry moved for the adoption of Resolution No. 45-83,
seconded by Mr. Jackel.
Mr. Jackel stated that the County Commission could not get a

will lose a great opportunity to maintain and further build the road
syst~.
- 9 - 5/10/83
Mr. Bird suggested that an additional whereas clause be
added, as the last clause, to read "WHEREAS, the Board of County Commis-

ances that this full amount would be levied to meet the specified needs
of the road system".

Jackel. Said motion passed unanimously.

(Police and Fire) to a term ending April 22, 1986.
Mr. Jackel moved to appoint Mr. Charles Hill Jr., as a
member of the Board of Trustees (Police and Fire) to a term ending April
22, 1986, seconded by Mr. Perry.
Mr. Bird stated that there is a great deal of money involved
in these funds and he is concerned at the propriety of putting a member
on the Board who is an active broker and whose primary decisions are of
a nature to select brokers and investment advisors. He would not be
concerned if he were retired and had no affiliation with a firm.
Mr. Jackel stated that if, at any meetings, there was any
suggestion of a conflict of interest he would presume Mr. Hill would
step down.
Mr. Bird moved to table this item until the next regular
meeting and reconsider it at that time, seconded by Mr. Perry. Said
motion passed unanimously.
25. Appointment - Internal Audit Committee. Council is to
consider appointing three members of the Internal Audit Committee to
terms ending April 27, 1985.
- 10 - 5/10/83
Mr. Perry moved to appoint Mr. William Peery, Mr. Ralph Dye
and Mr. William Nix to the Internal Audit Committee to terms ending
April 27, 1985, seconded by Mr. Jackel. Said motion passed unanimously.
26. Discussion of Landscape and Bike Path Restoration along Lake
Ida Road. Council directed that restoration was to be completed by 5
p.m., Tuesday, May 10th.
Mr. Robert Pontek, Director of Public Utilities, stated that
at 5 p.m. this afternoon the City Horticulturist, Clay Blanton and Don
Berryhill of Russell & Axon and Mr. Perry met and traversed the site of
the installation of the sod and looked over the certain deficiencies
with regard to spray headers. As directed by Council the sod has been
installed as per the contract specifications.
Upon question by Mr. Jackel, Mr. Clay Blanton stated that
there were some trees and shrubs which were temporarily removed and are
now replaced. The bike path has been patched where it was disturbed.
The City staff inspected the path and the only comment they had was that
the signs for the bike path needed to be replaced. The only areas they
have seen which are a problem are where someone ran over the bike path
after the contractor reinstalled it and some of the sprinkler heads are
broken but which the contractor will repair.
Roy Flack, Director of Rainberry Bay Homeowner's Associa-
tion, stated that the bulk of the sod work has been done. He personally
spoke to the people responsible for maintaining Rainberry Lake, Villas
of Rainberry Lake and Rainberry Bay to make sure the sprinklers are
working; there have been a few malfunctioning but they are being cor-
rected on a daily basis as they occur. However, he does not agree that
the work has been done 100%. There are certain areas where it is evident
the contractor has damaged the sod. He feels that even if it may not
have been part of the initial installation it was done by the contractor
and it would be appropriate to replace it. He requested that Council
make arrangements to have this minor amount of work done.
Francis Kalaman, 778 N.W. 23rd Lane, stated that he can only
reiterate Mr. Flack's comments; the area between the road and bike path
is in terrible condition. Council resolved that if the job was not
satisfactorily completed they would withhold the check and exercise
their right to have $100 fine per day against the contractor. He urged
Council to do this.
Mr. Perry stated that whatever work has to be done is so
minor he feels the contractor has worked in good faith trying to meet
Council's deadline. He is in favor of releasing the check at this time
and relying on the contractor to come back and take care of the small
patches of grass that need work.
Mr. Jackel moved to release the check due the contractor
with the exception of 10% retainage, advise him to complete the restora-
tion 100% along Lake Ida Road and have Russell & Axon tell the contrac-
tor and ask that he comply, seconded by Mr. Perry. Said motion passed
unanimously.
27. Swinton Circle Drainage. Council is to consider author-
izing payment for Swinton Circle drainage and designate source of fund-
ing.
Mr. Perry moved to authorize payment with funds to come from
the Florida Power & Light Account, seconded by Mr. Jackel. Said motion
passed unanimously.
Before roll call the following discussion was had:
Upon question by Mr. Jackel, the City Manager stated that
the funding is a carry over item from prior authorization and was iden-
tified as available funds.
- 11 - 5/10/83
The City Attorney advised that although this was not a
specific line item at the time the supplemental agreement was entered
into, the $239,382 was designated as being available in the FP & L Fund
and that monies were essentially in-house set aside for that purpose.
The $31,000 payment today will not exceed that amount so it is within
the contemplated budget figure which was discussed at the time.
At this point the roll was called to the motion.
28. Final Payment - Master Lift Station. Council is to con-
sider authorizing final payment for work completed on the Master Lift
Station in the amount of $18,141.08, with funds to come from the 1979
Bond Issue. Approval is recommended.
Mr. Bird moved to authorize final payment in the amount of
$18,141.08, with funds to come from the 1979 Bond Issue, seconded by Mr.
Jackel. Said motion passed unanimously.

Mr. Perry moved for the adoption of Ordinance No. 36-83 on
First Reading, seconded by Mr. Jackel.
Before roll call the following discussion was had:
Mr. Bird stated that one of the definitions of "Automobile
Graveyard" is motor vehicle parts. There is a vendor in town who just
became a junkyard and he sells used vehicle parts. The way the ordi-
nance is written gives it an entirely different meaning than what they
intended.
The City Attorney stated it is the motor vehicle parts from
such wrecked, scrapped, ruined or dismantled motor vehicles that the
ordinance is referring to. It is not the intent of the ordinance to
declare automotive graveyards to be any auto part stores. He ques-
tioned whether Council would like to add the phrase "in conjunction
therewith".
- 16 - 5/10/83
Following discussion it was the consensus of Council to add
an exclusion for certain businesses selling automotive parts.
Mr. Perry amended his motion to add an exclusion for auto
parts as advised by the City Attorney, seconded by Mr. Jackel. Upon

the area so they are apprised of it. Second hearing will not be held
until the first regular meeting in June so there would be approximately
a 30 day lag period. In addition to that they are also going to dis-
tribute copies to the Florida League and neighboring municipalities to
see if they wish to join Delray Beach in an effort of this nature.
At this point the roll was called to the motion.
