32. Renaming the City's Golf Course. Resolution No. 76-82,
renaming the City's golf course as the Delray Beach Municipal Golf
Course, is before Council for consideration.
The caption of Resolution No. 76-82 is as follows:
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF DELRAY
BEACH, FLORIDA, RENAMING THE CITY'S GOLF COURSE AS THE
"DELRAY BEACH MUNICIPAL GOLF COURSE".
Mr. Jackel moved for adoption of Resolution No. 76-82. SAID
MOTION DIED FOR LACK OF SECOND.
5.a.1. Mr. Leonard Syrop, High Point Way, commented on Council's
policy of bringing an item to the beginning of the agenda because a
large group of citizens have shown up for a particular item. He feels
that these items and comments from citizens should be put to the end of
the agenda; let the citizens sit through the entire evening and realize
where their particular item stands in priority order with the rest of
the business that the City has to conduct.
5.a.2. Mr. Raymond Potter, representing Scobee Ireland Potter
Funeral Home, stated that Delray Beach Cemetery is one of the worst kept
cemeteries in South Palm Beach County. The general appearance is very
poor, the grave markers have been run over by cemetery equipment, there
are no sections or areas designated for the locations of cemetery plots
and Delray Beach is the only cemetery that does not have its own equip-
ment for funeral set-ups. He feels that Council, in the future, should
arrange a Cemetery Board that includes a funeral director and members of
the public.
5.a.3. Mr. Norman Otto, 111 Periwinkle Lane, stated that he is here
tonight to request that the City authorize the placement of signs along
N.W. llth Street to warn drivers of the numerous children playing in
that area. He has collected funds from the concerned parents amounting
to $200, which he was advised would be approximately the cost of six
signs, and requests that Council authorize the placement of the signs.
Mr. Blair moved to instruct the Administration to erect
signs, the $200 to be accepted in part or total payment with any addi-
tional funds to come from the General Contingency Fund, seconded by Mr.
Perry. Said motion passed unanimously.
5.a.4. Mr. Thomas Hanlon, 124 Marine Way, stated that at the last
regular meeting discussion was had regarding two elderly women who had
been issued violation notices for having vending machines on their
property. They have had these machines for five and twelve years and it
was only recently when the Clean Community System became stricter in
enforcing the code that they realized they were breaking the law. He
feels that Council should consider a variance to the City's code for
these women, allow them to keep the machines on their porches and con-
tlnue to make a living.
Mr. Blair stated, for the record, that the Clean Community
System has nothing to do with code enforcement or issuing violation
notices.
Vice-Mayor Bird stated that he would like to know if it is
the neighborhood or legal standard that has been violated. He suggested
that a possible way of ascertaining this would be to waive the fee, put
this before the Board of Adjustment and have them provide a public forum
for input from the other neighbors. He would not like to deprive anyone
from supplementing their income but he feels that people in certain
zoning classifications should be protected.
Mr. Blair moved that this item be sent to the Board of
Adjustment, waive the fee and let them handle the matter, seconded by
Mr. Perry.
Before roll call the following discussion was had:
Mr. Perry stated that the day after the meeting he visited
the Building Department and found out that this matter is more of a
problem than it is thought to be. If they allow this as a use in a R-lA
district, how would similar requests be handled.
Mr. Blair stated that he would like the City to furnish
Council with a complete written statement on where they stand and dis-
cuss this at the next workshop meeting.
Mr. Blair withdrew his motion and Mr. Perry withdrew his
second.
Vice-Mayor Bird stated that although they are going to
discuss this item at a workshop meeting there are still two people who
are in violation and he asked what Council's decision is regarding them.
He stated that as next Tuesday is not a meeting date and the following
Tuesday will be a budget workshop it will be difficult to agenda this
· tem. He would like to have some citizen input from the surrounding
neighborhood as to whether or not they have an objection to these ma-
chines and have this item prior to the budget workshop on Thursday at
4:00 P.M., so that Council will have some idea what action they need to
take.
5.b.1. Mr. Blair commented on an article which recently appeared in
a newspaper and stated, for the record, that he has never been in-
fluenced by any member of the public on what decisions to make, how to
make them or when to make them.
- 2 - 8/24/82
5.b.2. Mr. Jackel stated that he is disappointed with the decision
made regarding the Delray Beach Golf Course. However, if the name of
the golf course is not going to be changed he would like to see the
listings in the telephone directory made clear and have the golf course
listed under "Municipal Golf Courses".
5.c. There were no Non-Agenda items by the City Attorney.
5.d. The City Manager stated that item 9 should read sewer ser-
vice instead of water service and that the effective date mentioned
under item 36 is relative to item 34. He also requested that item 12 be
removed from the consent agenda and placed on the regular agenda and
items 21, 22 and 30 be deleted from the agenda.
6. Mr. Jackel moved to approve the agenda, with the deletion of
items 21, 22 and 30 and item 12 to be moved to the regular agenda from
the consent agenda, seconded by Mr. Blair. Said motion passed unan-
imously.

REGULAR AGENDA
9. Developers Utility Service Agreement - Gulfstream 300 Part-
nershlp Ltd. Council is to consider an agreement between the City and
Gulfstream 300 Partnership Ltd. for sewer service to 1171 North Ocean
Boulevard, Gulfstream. $1,500 ($62.50 x 24 units) will be paid to the
City at a time spelled out in the agreement. Approval is recommended.
Mr. Perry moved to approve and authorize execution of an
agreement between the City and Gulfstream 300 Partnership Ltd. for sewer
service, seconded by Mr. Blair. Said motion passed unanimously.
12. Conditional Use, Site and Development Plan Approval Exten-
sion-Old Harbour. Council is to consider approving a conditional use,
site and development plan extension for Old Harbour, located at the
northwest corner of Linton Boulevard and the Intracoastal Waterway for
one year until March 22, 1984. The present approval expires March 22,
1983.
Mr. Richard Siemens stated the reason he had asked for this
item to be pulled is that he had appeared before the Planning and Zoning
Board and asked for an extension of two years for this site plan ap-
proval. He feels that a lengthy extension is needed because of the
current economic conditions and the size of the job. The Planning and
Zoning Board decided that it would be appropriate to grant a one year
extension. Since that meeting he has done some research on the history
of extensions and they are generally the same length of time as the
original approval. In his particular case it was eighteen months and he
is requesting that Council consider an eighteen month extension rather
than the one year extension granted by the Planning and Zoning Board.
Mr. Blair moved to approve an extension of eighteen months,
seconded by Mr. Jackel. Said motion passed unanimously.
25. Beach Area Protection. Resolution No. 89-82, authorizing
the submittal of an application to the State of Florida Department of
Natural Resources requesting funds relative to protecting the beach and
dune area, is before Council for consideration.
The caption of Resolution No. 89-82 is as follows:
- 8 - 8/24/82
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF DELRAY
BEACH, FLORIDA, AUTHORIZING THE SUBMITTAL OF AN APPLICA-
TION TO THE STATE OF FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RE-
SOURCES REQUESTING AND SETTING FORTH THE NEED FOR FUNDS
IN REGARD TO: A MAINTENANCE NOURISHMENT PROJECT, MON-
ITORING THE MAINTENANCE NOURISHMENT PROJECT, AND TO
IMPROVING AND PROTECTING THE BEACH AREA AND DUNE, WITH
DUNE OVERWALKS AND OTHER NECESSARY ACTIVITIES, ALL AS
MORE FULLY SET FORTH IN THE APPLICATION.
(Copy of Resolution No. 89-82 is on file in the official
Resolution Book)
Mr. Perry stated that although the City needs the funds and
renourlshment he would like to see some guarantee for the future so that
they have a freer hand and not have to go through this situation in
another ten years.
The City Attorney stated that this particular application
contains within it certain stipulations which state that, by accepting
those funds, the City will obligate itself to provide permanent public
access to the beach and provide access equally to all members of the
public.
Vice-Mayor Bird stated that passage of this resolution is an
applIcation for funds and if the contract comes through Council can then
decide whether or not to accept it. He feels there is an opportunity
of addressing the issue by going back, submitting a modification and
seeing if it is accepted. Council can always say no but he does not
feel it is appropriate to say no at this time as there is a large amount
of money involved.
Mr. Perry moved for adoption of Resolution No. 89-82, sec-
onded by Mr. Jackel. Upon roll call Council voted as follows: Mr.
Blair - Yes; Mr. Jackel - Yes; Mr. Perry - Yes; Vice-Mayor Bird - Yes.
Said motion passed with a 4 to 0 vote.
27. Refuse Collection Contracting. Vice-Mayor Bird stated he
had asked that this item be put on the agenda because he felt that,
after some research, there are methods of obtaining adequate garbage
collection and agencies who will do back-door and front-yard pick up at
a price less than the City currently charges. He would like to see the
City in a position to enter into contract by the end of the year.
The City Manager stated he believes they can prepare spec-
iflcations acceptable to Council and the public providing for various
service levels. He feels it would be rushing Council to look for a
letting of the bid by the end of the year. However, they can be looking
at an acceptance of the specifications and an authorization to bid.
Mr. Perry stated that Council has already committed itself
to a test of the containerized service. He feels that it should be
given a chance to get underway and done, then they can look back over it
to find out if it gives the hopeful results. If full preparations are
made for a contracted service, he does not see how the containerized
service can be given a chance.
Mr. Blair stated that he would like to see this item moving
ahead. He feels the containerized service is fine and there are prob-
ably areas that are going to want it. As they bid out, he would like
the other types of service added into the specifications to find out
what prices they would charge for different types of service.
Mrs. Nettie Durante, 2750 Ponce de Leon Boulevard, stated
she has heard that the City is going to insist that people put their
garbage out to the front of their homes. She lives alone and cannot see
how she will be able to carry her garbage out to the front yard.
- 9 - 8/24/82
Vice-Mayor Bird stated that in his opinion there are dif-
ferent areas in the City who will want the best possible basic service
at the lowest price and others who will want their garbage picked up for
them. The City has entered into contractural relationships with outside
collectors for High Point and Country Manors. That may be the solution
Council comes to or they may decide to hire a single contractor to do
the entire City, but to offer different levels of service in various
segments.

31. Exchange of Property between the City and Arvilla Corpora-
tlon. Council is to consider reaffirming the agreement to authorize the
exchange of real property between the City and Arvilla Corporation for
portions of Lots 17 and 18, Block 1, Ocean Park.
The City Attorney reported that Resolution No. 94-79 au-
thorized the exchange of this property. However, the exchange never
took place as the piece of property the City was to acquire had on it
certain incumberances which were unacceptable to the City Attorney's
office. They are apparently now in the process of clearing those incum-
berances. However, he was not willing to go through with the transaction
until Council gave further assurance that this was still acceptable. In
addition all the real property matters had to be updated at the expense
of Arvilla Corporation. They have agreed to pay the expenses and based
on that he would recommend that Council ratify the prior action of
approving Resolution No. 94-79.
Mr. Perry moved to ratify the prior action of approving
Resolution No. 94-79, seconded by Mr. Blair. Said motion passed unan-
Imously.
33. Rezoning Request - West of Military Trail between the L-32

Resolution No. 81-82, requesting permission from the Palm Beach County
Board of Commissioners to rezone land to be annexed from CG (General
Commercial) (County) to R-1AA (Single Family Dwelling) District (City),
is before Council for consideration.
The caption of Resolution No. 81-82 is as follows:
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF DELRAY
BEACH, FLORIDA, REQUESTING PERMISSION FROM THE BOARD OF
COUNTY COMMISSIONERS, PURSUANT TO FLORIDA STATUTES
171.062, TO REZONE LAND TO BE ANNEXED TO THE CITY OF
DELRAY BEACH FROM THE COUNTY ZONING CLASSIFICATION CG-
GENERAL COMMERCIAL TO THE CITY'S ZONING CLASSIFICATION
R-1AA (SINGLE FAMILY DWELLING) DISTRICT.
- 10 - 8/24/82
The City Attorney stated that Council policy adopted for-
mally quite some time ago was to the affect that they would not annex
any properties which were lying west of the centerline of Military
Trail. By passing this resolution they will be changing their policy.
Mr. Perry stated that this land seems to be an excellant
rateable. The City has already extended water service to them and he
cannot see what expenditure the City may have. He feels that as the
City has already set up an annexation reserve line west of Military
Trail, the time has come to look at this very positively.
Mr. Mike McDaniel, Planning Director, stated that before the
City starts annexing property west of Military Trail they have to find
out if they have the water capacity to service the area. If there is
enough water to service it, then he feels there is nothing to prohibit
the City from annexing to the extent of their reserve area. By annexing
this particular piece of property it does change policy and set prec-
edence.
Mrs. Alice Finst, 707 Place Tavant, stated that in the past
when any requests for annexation west of Military Trail have come before
Council their policy has been not to discuss it.
Vice-Mayor Bird stated that part of the concern, when that
policy was established, was that it made more sense to have a geograph-
ical boundary where you knew where the City of Delray Beach was going to
~ermlnate on the western boundary.
Mrs. Phyllis Plume, Planning and Zoning Board member, stated
that when this request came before the board it was one of a large
package of properties contiguous to the City which were receiving water
and could be annexed. At that time they did not realize that this
particular property was west of Military Trail.
Mr. Blair moved to adopt Resolution No. 81-82, seconded by
Mr. Perry. Upon roll call Council voted as follows: Mr. Blair - No;
Mr. Jackel - No; Mr. Perry - No; Vice-Mayor Bird - No. Said motion

43. Manhole Repairs - Country Manors. Change Order No. 1,
increasing the contract price by American Underground in the amount of
$3,500 for a total net contract price of $11,200, is before Council for
consideration. This change order is for replacement of a manhole orig-
inally planned for repairs. Approval is recommended.
Mr. Perry moved to approve Change Order No. 1, seconded by
Mr. Blair. Said motion passed unanimously.
Before roll call the following discussion was had:
Mr. Perry stated that this figure is almost 50% of the
original bid and he cannot understand why a manhole which was put in
less than ten years ago is having to be replaced.
Mr. Leonard Syrop, stated that there are a number of man-
holes in the City which are in very bad condition and feels that the
inspection department has been negligent. He asked whether they inspect
them after the developer covers them up or before.
Gates Castle, stated that from inspections today there is no
way you can tell, in some of the areas, what is going to happen within
the next few days if the subsurface conditions are bad. The City in-
spects them after they are put in place. There are engineers who are
contracted by the large developers to provide inspection on the site
during construction and the City is then called out, at which time
everything is supposedly acceptable.
Mr. Blair stated that he feels it may be wise for the City
Manager to instruct the City Engineer to look into this situation and
have inspections before the manholes are completed.
Vice-Mayor Bird suggested that the Administration make a
statistical study to find out if there is any particular engineer whose
work seems to be more susceptible to these problems than another engine-
erlng firm.
Gates Castle, stated that the Public Utilities department
has now set up a procedure so that when the engineer of record states
that a system is ready they go out and inspect it. The one year war-
ranty starts once it is accepted and the developer is responsible for
any maintenance on the system. At the end of the one year the Public
Utilities Department is notified by the Engineering Department that the
warranty is coming up and the bond will be released. They then go out
and inspect it again to make sure everything meets City standards.
At this point the roll was called to the motion.
Vice-Mayor Bird declared the meeting adjourned at 9:20 P.M.
