MARCH 24~ 1981
A regular meeting of the City Council of the City of Delray
Beach, Florida, was held in the Council Chambers at 7:00 P.M., Tuesday,
March 24, 1981, with Vice-Mayor Malcolm T. Bird, presiding and City
Manager J. Eldon Mariott, City Attorney Roger Saberson, and Council
members Charlotte G. Durante, James H. Scheifley, and Willard V. Young,
present. Mayor Weekes was absent due to the death of his father.
1. The opening prayer was delivered by Reverend John Hadlock,
~hurch of the Nazarene.
2. The Pledge of Allegiance to the flag of the United States of
America was given.
Mr. Young moved for approval of the minutes of the regular
~eeting of March 10, 1981 and the special meetings of March 3, 1981 and
~arch 5, 1981, seconded by Mrs. Durante. Said motion passed unani-
mously.
Mr. Bird stated that the reason Mayor Weekes is not here
tonight is because his father passed away 1% days ago. The viewing is
tonight at Scobee-Ireland-Potter; the funeral is tomorrow at 2:00 P.M.
Members of Council share in his grief.
4.a.1. Mr. Scheifley moved to table and refer to workshop, items
6.c. and 6.e., seconded by Mrs. Durante. Upon roll call Council voted
as follows: Mrs. Durante - Yes; Mr. Scheifley - Yes; Mr. Young - Yes;
Vice-Mayor Bird - No. Said motion passed with a 3 to 1 vote.
4.b.1. Mr. Young presented a petition signed by people who are
complaining about the condition of Seasage Drive and also a photograph
of that street.
4.c.1. Mr. Bird stated that he voted no on the motion to table
items 6(c) and 6(e) to workshop because they have already spent a great
deal of time discussing the garbage issue. He questions what is to be
gained from workshopping it one more time.
4.c.2. Mr. Bird stated that at the next workshop meeting, he would
like to have added to the agenda discussion of the siting of the Barwick
Fire Station. They are all in favor of getting emergency medical care
out there as quickly as possible, but as he looks at a map and tries to
ascertain by what logic they established that particular place as a
location for a fire station, he keeps coming up short. He would like a
discussion of it by the administration including the rationale for why
they should spend ¼ million dollars to site a facility out there rather
than putting a temporary facility there to meet the immediate needs and
more properly siting a facility for a full fledged fire station in some
other location.
5.a. Mr. Frank Carey discussed the issue of water. He questions
,hether or not there is sufficient water to supply the needs of the
,rojected population in ten years from now. He thinks that this com-
%unity continues to gamble with its future by offering water service to
~sers lying beyond the reserve area and by providing water to those
~sers whose use of the land is in direct violation of the City's adopted
Comprehensive Plan and its land use element. Some time ago Mr. Martin
informed this Council that the capacity of the enlarged filtration plant
was based on the adopted land use element of the plan and the needs it
would generate; he now says otherwise. He strongly recommends that this
Council adhere to the Land Use Plan and, from this time forward, refuse
water service to any applicant whose use of the land is not consistent
with the Plan. He added that the present surcharge for water to non-
residents of the City is totally insufficient.
Mr. Bird requested that this item be put on a workshop
agenda and that the Administration come, at that time, prepared with
figures that relate not only to current use but also the projected
buildout figures as actualities, define the limits and the City Attor-
ney, at that meeting, can provide them with any legal impediments as to
why they could not change the surcharge.
Upoa question by Mr. Bird, the City Manager replied that
they will schedale that for the second workshop meeting in April.
5.b. Mrs. Betty Matthews, 1024 White Drive, stated that a number
of people who live near the ocean have asked her to bring this problem
to the attention of Council. It relates to a Haitian boat which has
washed ashore on the south end of the beach. Initially, it was filled
with filthy clothing and, in these people's opinion, it was a distinct
health hazard. The City told them it was a County problem and the
County told them it was a City problem. Meanwhile the ocean washed away
the filthy clothing but the boat remains. It's large, it's in very bad
shape and it is starting to fill with sand. Children play there and it
is hazardous. She requested that the City determine whose responsi-
bility it is so that it can be removed.
The City Manager stated that the boat is not within the City
limits of Delray Beach; it is in the unincorporated area of the County.
The City Police Department and the County Sheriff's Department are now
addressing that question to attempt to get it resolved. They would like
to get it out of there.
Mr. Bird asked for an equivalent street address. Mrs.
Matthews replied that it's less than one block north of the Delray Beach
Club. Mr. Bird asked if they would be trampling someone's rights by
removing the boat. The City Manager replied that they are doing all
they can do legally to get it removed. Upon question by Mr. Bird, the
City Manager replied that he does not know when it will be removed. Mr.
Bird asked the City Manager to call him tomorrow to discuss this.
5.c. Mr. Sam Schwimer asked about the status on the shifting of
Homewood Boulevard at Atlantic Avenue.
Mr. Bird stated that the acceptance of the franchise agree-
ment with FP&L should be the funding source to complete that. Until
they have the funds in hand, it cannot be done.
The City Attorney stated that the FP&L franchise will be
accepted at the end of March and the payments commence 90 days after
that. Mr. Bird added that the commencement of work should begin within
the next three or four months.
6.a.1. The City Manager stated that the Delray Beach Little League
is about to begin its 1981 season. The League has asked him to invite
members of City Council to the opening ceremonies which will be held at
the American Legion Field on March 30th at 6:00 P.M.
6.b. CONSENT AGENDA
The City Manager reported on the following items which are
to be considered by Council as the Consent Agenda:
(1) It is recommended that Council authorize Arthur V.
Strock & Associates, Inc., the City's beach consulting engineers, to
provide beach engineering services under the terms of the recently
approved City/Strock contract for sand fence, access improvements,
vegetation, landscaping, preparation of funding applications and other
miscellaneous engineering services germane to maintenance of the City's
beach and coastal area.
(2) The study for beach maintenance nourishment is required
on a continuing basis to determine erosion losses. The work involves
topographic and hydrographic surveys to evaluate the effectiveness of
beach nourishment. It is recommended that Arthur V. Strock & Associ-
ates, Inc., consulting engineers, be authorized to perform this work
under the terms of the City/Strock contract recently approved by Coun-
cil.
(3) Council at the February 24th meeting, appointed Robert
Slager as a regular member of PERC to the unexpired term of Robert
Fellows ending March 13, 1984. Since that time, it has been determined
that Mr. Slager is employed by the State of Florida, thus making him
ineligible to serve on PERC. The Chairman of PERC has recommended that
William Schwartz be appointed to the unexpired term of Robert Fellows
ending March 13, 1984. Mr. Schwartz is willing to serve if appointed.
Approval is recommended.

(4) It is recommended that Council authorize the execution
of a 25-foot easement deed at Miller Park on City owned land. The City
is expanding Miller Park and additional power facilities have to be

requires an easement.
(5) A Developers Utility Service Agreement has been re-
ceived from Felner Development Corporation for the providing of water
and sewer service to Pine Trail South, south of the L-32 Canal, east of
Military Trail. A check in the amount of $4,000 has been deposited in
the Development Fund to cover 40 units at $100 per unit ($62.50 for
sewer and $37.50 for water). Council approved providing water service
to this property in 1976. It is recommended that Council approve exe-
cution of the agreement.
(6) As discussed at the March 17th workshop meeting, Coun-
cil is to consider the request of Plumosa School that the City make
~vailable $9,000 to install a recreational facility play unit at the
~chool. It is recommended that $9,000 be transferred from the General
Fund Contingency Account to Parks & Recreation for this purpose.
(7) It is recommended that Council accept an easement deed
from Holland Builders, Inc. for a 10-foot easement in Shadywoods, Phase
Two, extending from Lakeview Golf Course to Linton Boulevard. The
acquisition of this easement is necessary for storm drain and drainage.
(8) It is recommended that Council accept a 15-foot utility
easement along U.S. No. 1, extending from S.E. 10th Street, south ap-
prOximately 300 feet from Rose C. Mahoney for the placement of water and
sewer piping to the recently annexed Acquilano property.
(9) Council, at the February 24th meeting, approved payment
of $4,000 for the operation of the Community School Program in Delray

from the General Fund Contingency Account for this purpose.
(10) A communication has been received from the Area Plan-
ning Board dated March 17th requesting A-95 Clearinghouse review and
comment relative to Metropolitan Planning Organization Unified Planning
Work Program. This program defines tasks and estimated funding require-
ments for transportation planning so there will be no duplication of
effort. This project will not result in any adverse effects to the
local natural, social or economic environment and there is no dupli-
cation of ongoing projects or programs. Approval is recommended.
(11) It is recommended that the water main loop installed in

(13) An application has been receiv.~d from Clare W. Miller
to annex a 1.7-acre parcel of land, subject to RM-15 (Multiple Family
Dwelling) District. The subject property is in Section 28-46-43 and is
located south of Linton Boulevard if extended east, between A1A and the
Ocean. The Planning & Zoning Board at a meeting held on March 16th,
recommended by unanimous vote that the property be annexed as RM-15
since this is in conformance with the City's Land Use Plan. It is
recommended that the City Attorney be instructed to draft an ordinance
annexing the property.
(14) The Planning & Zoning Board at a meeting held on March
16th, recommended by unanimous vote that the conditional use approval
for South Palm Professional Plaza, located on the east side of U.S. No.
1 between Avenue "H" and Avenue "J" be extended for one year to April
28, 1982. Approval is recommended.
(15) The Planning & Zoning Board at a meeting held on March
16th, recommended by unanimous vote that the final plat approval for XYZ
Subdivision, located south of the L-32 Canal, between Congress Avenue
and the E-4 Canal be approved, subject to the Director of Public Utili-
ties' memorandum of March 2nd. Approval is recommended.
Mr. Scheifley moved for approval of the Consent Agenda,
including items 6.b.(1) through 6.b.(15), seconded by Mrs. Durante.
Upon roll call Council voted as follows: Mrs. Durante - Yes; Mr.
Scheifley - Yes; Mr. Young - No; Vice-Mayor Bird - No. Said motion
failed with a 2 to 2 vote.
Before roll call the following discussion was had: Mr. Bird
stated that one of the things that he finds consistently difficult to
deal with is Consent Agenda items for which there is no backup. Items
b(1) and b(2) have no amounts.
The City Attorney advised that the contract that was negoti-
ated is in the framework of an umbrella contract that provides that in
the event the City gives them a specific authorization for a specific
project, then certain terms and conditions will apply, one of which is a
set of hourly rates. He does not have those rates with him. It is a
continuing contract until terminated by either party; either party can
terminate on 30 days notice.
Mr. Bird stated that it seems to him it would be of interest
to the people of the City of Delray Beach to know how much they are
contemplating for how long a period. He inquired about the cost for the
study for beach maintenance nourishment (item 6.b.(2)). Mr Bird sug-
gested that items 6.b.(1) and 6.b.(2) be pulled from the Consent Agenda
for a separate vote. The City Manager stated that if Council is not
prepared to leave these two items on the Consent Agenda, he requests
that a motion be passed referring these items to workshop.
At this point the roll was called to the motion.
Mr. Scheifley moved to remove items (1) and (2) from the
Consent Agenda and refer them to workshop, seconded by Mrs. Durante.
Said motion passed unanimously.
Mr. Scheifley moved for approval of the Consent Agenda items
(3) through (15) inclusive, seconded by Mrs. Durante. Said motion
passed unanimously.
REGULAR AGENDA
6.d. The City Manager reported that a request has been received
for amended final plat approval for Faircrest Heights Subdivision, which
consists of 66 single family lots on 28.11 acres. The amendment con-
sists of removing certain ambiguous and contradictory language regarding
the ownership operation and maintenance of the water management areas
from the dedication section of the cover sheet. The original final plat
was approved by Council on August 27, 1979. The Planning & Zoning
Board, at their meeting held on March 23rd, recommended approval by a
unanimous vote.
- 5 - 03/24/81
Mrs. Durante moved to sust~.in the recommendation of the
Planning & Zoning Board, seconded by Mr. Scheifley. Said motion passed
unanimously.
7.a. The City Manager reported that as discussed at the March
17th workshop meeting, Council is to consider the request from Irving E.
Shore for water and sewer service for a 15-acre parcel of land located
on the west side of Military Trail and one half mile north of Atlantic
Avenue.
Mrs. Durante moved for approval of the request for water and
sewer service by Irving E. Shore, seconded by Mr. Scheifley. Said
motion passed unanimously.
6.b.(6) Representatives for the Plumosa school project came forward
and showed Council a sketch of the park and a miniature of the proposed
play equipment. They gave a brief presentation.
7.b. The City Manager reported that as discussed at the workshop
meeting on March 17th, Council is to consider the request for water and
sewer service for the additional 4.6 acres to be added to Federal Plaza
Shopping Center, located at the northwest corner of Military Trail and
West Atlantic Avenue.
Mrs. Durante moved for approval of the request for water and
sewer service by Federal Plaza Shopping Center, seconded by Mr.
Scheifley. Said motion passed unanimously.
7.c. The City Manager reported that an application from Linton
Woods/Valdev Development Corporation for City water service to serve
four acres located west of Ella and Bessie Streets; north of Linton
Boulevard, between S.W. 10th Avenue and S.W. 8th Avenue, was discussed
at the January 13th Council meeting, at which time Council denied the
application and sent the matter back to the Planning & Zoning Board for
them to determine whether or not they wished to make a recommendation
that the Land Use Plan be changed for the area in which this site is
located. The Planning & Zoning Board at a meeting held on February
24th, recommended by unanimous vote that the Land Use Plan not be
changed. This was discussed at the workshop meeting on March 17th.
Mr. Young moved for the approval of that request, seconded
by Mrs. Durante. Upon roll call Council voted as follows: Mrs. Durante
- Yes; Mr. Scheifley - No; Mr. Young - Yes; Vice-Mayor Bird - Yes. Said
motion passed with a 3 to 1 vote.
Before roll call the following discussion was had: Upon
question by Mr. Scheifley, Mr. Carey stated that they are not in con-
formance with the Land Use Plan; this is multi-family and the land use
plan shows it as single family. Mr. Bird added that it is in conform-
ance with the County's Land Use Plan. Mr. Carey stated that he does not
think that just because the County decides they're going to go one way
that they have to follow in their footsteps. Mrs. Durante agreed that
the County is not always sensitive to Delray, but she feels that this
area is one in which they should look at some sensitive zoning to meet
the affordable housing need.
At this point the roll was called to the motion.
7.d. The City Manager reported that an application has been re-
ceived for transfer of ownership of Certificate of Public Convenience
and Necessity from Joseph Kovar under the name of Smokey, Inc. d/b/a
Greyhound Taxi, which is licensed to operate three taxicabs, to Raymond
Ciccone. In compliance with Section 28-19, Chapter 28 of the Code of
Ordinances, Council should fix a date for a public hearing to be held on
this application for transfer of ownership of Certificate of Public
Convenience and Necessity, notice of which shall be forwarded to all
operators of taxicabs. At such public hearing, and as a result thereof,
Council shall determine if further cab service, within the City, is
needed. It is recommended that Council authorize a public hearing on
the application to be held at the next regular Council meeting on April
14th.
Mr. Scheifley moved to authorize the public hearing on April
14th, seconded by Mrs. Durante. Said motion passed unanimously.

8.a. The City Manager repo~teC that Resolution No. 3-81 affirming
the administrative determination or Resolution No. 3-81 reversing the
administrative determination that a nuisance exists in regard to the
Fleming and Coury property in the vicinity of the northeast corner of
Barwick Road and Lake Ida Road is before Council for consideration.
Council, at the January 13th meeting, tabled a decision of this item
until the March 24th meeting.
The City Manager presented Resolution No. 3-81~affirming the
adminstrative decision that a nuisance exists:
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF DELRAY
BEACH, FLORIDA, AFFIRMING THE ADMINISTRATIVE DETERMI-
NATION THAT A NUISANCE EXISTS IN VIOLATION OF SECTION
13-15 OF THE CODE OF ORDINANCES IN REGARD TO THE FLEMING
AND COURY PROPERTY IN THE VICINITY OF THE NORTHEAST
CORNER OF BARWICK ROAD AND LAKE IDA ROAD; THE VIOLATION
BEING AN ACCUMULATION OF SAND, ROCKS AND OTHER DEBRIS TO
A HEIGHT EXCEEDING THREE (3) FEET ALONG THE SOUTHERN POR-
TION OF THE PROPERTY.
The City Manager presented Resolution No. 3-81 reversing the
administrative determination that a nuisance exists:
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF DELRAY
BEACH, FLORIDA, REVERSING THE ADMINISTRATIVE DETERMI-
NATION THAT A NUISANCE EXISTS IN VIOLATION OF SECTION
13-15 OF THE CODE OF ORDINANCES IN REGARD TO THE FLEMING
AND COURY PROPERTY IN THE VICINITY OF THE NORTHEAST
CORNER OF BARWICK ROAD AND LAKE IDA ROAD; THE VIOLATION
BEING AN ACCUMULATION OF SAND, ROCKS AND OTHER DEBRIS TO
A HEIGHT EXCEEDING THREE (3) FEET ALONG THE SOUTHERN POR-
TION OF THE PROPERTY.
Mr. Scheifley moved for adoption of Resolution No. 3-81
affirming the decision of the administration, seconded by Mrs. Durante.
Upon question by Mrs. Durante, the City Attorney replied
that the person has not been belligerent or uncooperative. Mr. Bird
asked how many places in the City have berms above three feet. Mrs.
Durante stated that if the owner takes the berm down, he is going to
have the accumulation of a lot of trash on his property.
A representative for the owner stated that they do have a
provision that the buyer will do what is necessary with respect to the
berm to satisfy the City; however, that provision was added to the
contract when they thought he was going to buy the south parcel first.
He is now going to buy the parcel immediately north of L-31 first and,
perhaps, soon thereafter take the parcel south of the L-31.
Mr. Scheifley stated that a meeting hardly goes by when
someone complains about not enforcing ordinances. Mrs. Durante stated
that the man built this berm because of all the trash and garbage that
was being dumped on this lot. Until they can do something to keep the
trash off of West Atlantic Avenue, she feels that they should not worry
about a berm. The City Manager replied that that could take a long
time.
Mrs. Durante withdrew her second.
Mr. Bird stated that before they discuss this again, he
would like to know how many areas in the City have berms which exceed
three feet and how that three feet is measured. The City Manager stated
that they will not attempt to enforce the berm ordinance until a reso-
lution is made of it.
Mrs. Durante moved to table Resolution No. 3-81, seconded by
Mr. Scheifley. Upon roll call Council voted as follows: Mrs. Durante -
Yes; Mr. Scheifley - No; Mr. Young - Yes; Vice-Mayor Bird - Yes. Said
motion passed with a 3 to 1 vote.

Mr. Scheifley stated that he had some reservations about the
original ordinance giving the authority to the City Engineer. If the
information in the agenda preface is correct, he still has some reserva-
tions. The City Attorney stated that the ordinance provides that upon
the recommendation of the City Engineer, the City Council may authorize
a reduction. Mr. Scheifley noted that the agenda is incorrect.
The City Manager 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.
Mr. George Bockhold, Banyan Tree Condominiums, stated that
this is confusing and it should not be acted upon until the wording is
correct so the people know what is being done. He suggested that they
table it until the next meeting.
The City Attorney stated that the advertisement pertaining
to this ordinance that was published in the newspaper to give the public
notice of the public hearing contained all of the corrections.
Mr. Gregory Belli, 208 S. Swinton Avenue, stated that he has
some reservations as to the lack of specificity in the conditions under
which the City Engineer might make a recommendation.
Mr. Bird stated that this was to grant some relief so that
those parcels scattered in the developed sections of the City could be
developed at a reasonable cost by those wishing to do so. It would not
impose any undue burden on their neighbors because most of them are
dead-end streets of limited length.
The public hearing was closed.
Mrs. Durante moved for the adoption of Ordinance No. 12-81
on Second and FINAL Reading, seconded by Mr. Scheifley. Upon roll call
Council voted as follows: Mrs. Durante - Yes; Mr. Scheifley - Yes; Mr.
Young - Yes; Vice-Mayor Bird - Yes. Said motion passed with a 4 to 0
vote.
