AUGUST 26, 1980
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,
August 26, 1980, with Mayor Leon M. Weekes, presiding and City Manager
J. Eldon Mariott, City Attorney Roger Saberson, and Council members
Malcolm T. Bird, Charlotte G. Durante, James H. Scheifley, and Willard
V. Young, present.
1. The opening prayer was delivered by Reverend Donald Mackay,
~ason United Methodist Church.
2. The Pledge of Allegiance to the flag of the United States of
America was given.
3. Mr. Bird moved for approval of the minutes of the regular
meeting of August 12, 1980 and the special meeting of August 5, 1980,
seconded by Mrs. Durante. Said motion passed unanimously.
4.a.1. Mr. Bird moved that a formal budget meeting be held on
September 30, 1980 to commence work on the 1981-82 budget, seconded by
Mrs. Durante. Said motion passed unanimously..
4.a.2. Mr. Bird moved that the purchase o'f ~vehicles authorized in
the 1980-81 budget be held in abeyance until such time as a pool and
vehicular study of the needs of the City be completed, with the excep-
tion that the budget items for police vehicles be allowed to bev pur-
chased at such time as deemed appropriate, seconded by Mr. Young. Said
motion passed unanimously.
Mrs. Durante added that Council can discuss this in more
detail at the September 30th meeting.
4.b.1. Mrs. Durante stated that she regrets to have to bring up
this item at this time. At a Civil Service Board meeting last week, a
comment which was made by one of the members caused a considerable
amount of concern in the community because of the manner in which the
comment was made. A word was used in its derogatory and disrespectful
form about a race of people. She has sent a letter to Council members
stating her feelings about it and what she feels Council should do. The
Mayor did say that he was going to ask for the resignation of that Civil
Service Board member; that resignation was requested% There are some
people in the audience who are here specifically to find out what has
taken place.
Mayor Weekes stated that the lette~ he received in response,
dated. August 25, 1980, is not a resignation. The letter also says "I
advised you in our telephone conversation this morning, a full statement
from me is shortly forthcoming." The Mayor added that he did not have
any conversation with this gentleman on August. 25th; all of his tele-
phone lines were out all day. He has asked, the City Attorney's office
to advise him as to what steps are necessary to have a person removed
from the Civil Service Board. If the resignation is not forthcoming as
requested, he will certainly bring before Council the proposition of
removing the gentlema~n from the Civil Service Board. His continued
service on the Board is inappropriate, in spite of his apology. To
continue to have him on the Board would have a great detriment to the
credibility of the Civil Service Board.
Mr. Bird suggested that they be prepared to immediately
instate a new alternate member to that Board.
Mr. Anthony Newbold, Roots Festival, Inc., asked that Council
take some action to eliminate this type of prejudicial statement or
persons responsible from the City Government, whether it be an elected
or appointed City body.
4.c.1. Mr. Scheifley discussed a billboard that was constructed on
Federal Highway about 3 years ago when he was Mayor; it was in a County
pocket and the City had no jurisdiction of it. In April of 1978, Mayor
Weekes took over and successfully had the billboard eliminated. A large
billboard was recently constructed at the entrance to Miller Park; it's
in a County pocket. The trustee is John H. Payne, 1028 N.E. 45 St.,
Fort Lauderdale; the sign company is the Beal Company. The billboard is
not ~yet rented and he feels action should be taken immediately.
Mr. Scheifley moved that any action taken by any City offi-
cial or the Mayor be at the direction and with the approval of the City
Council in their official capacity. The motion died for lack of a
second.
Further discussion was had by Council and the City Attorney
in regard to the wording of the motion. The City Manager stated that,
as he understands it, Mr. Scheifley would like to get a motion passed by
Council that would prevent a personal lawsuit being filed against indi-
viduals of the City.
Mr. Bird moved that Council direct the Mayor to communicate
to the owner of the billboard, located on the east side of the access
road to Miller Park, the City Council's and the citizens' displeasure
with billboards in the City and see if the owner would be amenable to
removing it, seconded by Mrs. Durante. Said motion passed unanimously.
Mr. Bird moved that Council prepare a resolution to be for-
warded to the County Commission requesting that they amend their ordi-
nance so as not to allow billboards within the general described limits
of the City of Delray Beach in the future, seconded by Mrs. Durante.
Said motion passed unanimously.
5. There were no public requests from the floor.
6.a.1. The City Manager stated that this item concerns the proposed
development at the Seacrest Hotel site at A1A and East Atlantic Avenue.
Last week Council requested the Administration to secure proposals from
consulting firms that would assist Council in deciding upon the approval
of the Seacrest development. The Administration did the best it could,
in the time available, in securing quotations; they did secure proposals
from five consulting firms: (1) Wallace, Roberts & Todd, $6,000 -
12,000; (2) Moss, Fleming & Epple, no figure quoted; (3) Gee & Jensen,
'$10,000; (4) Mid South Engineering Co., under $2,000;.and (5) Kimley,
Horn & Associates, no figure quoted. He has no recommendation to make
to Council at this time because the information is insufficient. What
they want the firm to do is probably not defined specifically enough in
order for them to all be quoting on the same basis. He has two sugges-
tions; for Council to further define what they want and then let him
come back to Council with a recommendation if the figure quoted comes
within the allowable limit under the Competitive Negotiations Act; or
have some dialogue with representatives of the firms that are here
tonight.
It was the consensus of Council to discuss this item at the
workshop meeting next Tuesday night.
The City Manager added that he feels that at the workshop
meeting, the City should determine what type of study they want and what
they want included. Then they can go back to the consultants and get
meaningful proposals. Mayor Weekes suggested that they limit any future
consi, deration to the firms which have already shown an interest.
6.b. The City Manager reported that Representative Jim Watt cou]
not be here this evening. He will make his presentation at the next
regular Council meeting.
6.c. Mayor Weekes reported that he has two City Service Awards to
present. Dr. Warren Nubern has moved from the area and is not here this
evening. He will present the Award to him at half-time in conjunction
with a program being prepared by Atlantic High School on September 12th.
Mayor Weekes stated that Mr. Jake Pullum has been a member of the Board
of Adustment from August 1979 to June 1980 in addition to which Mr.
Pul lum has been a very concerned and interested citizen of the City.
Mr. Pullum came forward to accept the City Service Award.
Mayor Weekes reported that the Chamber of Commerce and
Atlantic High School wanted to do something to recognize Dr. Nubern's
service to the high school, to the Chamber and to the City. They asked
if the Cities of Delray Beach and Boynton Beach would participate in
such recognition. Boynton Beach will have a resolution prepared. He
asks that this Council pass Resolution No. 73-80.

letter from John J. Green, Executive Director, Palm Beach County Depart-

Development Program for fiscal year 1981. It is recommended that Coun-
cil pass a motion indicating its desire to not be excluded from the
program but that we continue with the program as in the past since
inception of the Community Development Program.
Mrs. Durante moved that the City of Delray Beach continue
with the County in their Community Development Program for fiscal year
1981, seconded by Mr. Bird. Said motion passed unanimously.
7.a. Mayor Weekes acknowledged the minutes of the Beautification
Committee meeting of August 8, 1980 and noted that there is an item for
Council attention which relates to the injecting of the palm trees for
lethal yellowing and the cessation of that program by the Parks and
Recreation Department.
Mr. Scheifley moved that the City discontinue the injection
for the lethal yellowing because of the cost and because of their in-
evitable demise, seconded by Mr. Bird. Said motion passed unanimously.

The City Attorney stated that if they postpone, it would be
necessary to readvertise. He added that they do have a recorded annex-
ation agreement. Mr. O'Brien's clients closed about a month ago so they
would have notice if they searched the title. The City has received
permission from the County to bring it in at the R-1AA density; if it's
postponed it may be that the owner will want to go to the County and try
and have that approval revoked. Upon question by Mayor Weekes, the City
Attorney stated that it is an enforceable agreement.
Mr. O'Brien stated that his clients are not against the
annexation but they would like the chance to sit down and discuss the
options with the City Planner and City Attorney.
The City Attorney advised Council that if this property
owner now decides he doesn't want to come into the City, Council must
decide whether they want to go ahead and proceed with the agreement
despite that or whether they would rather release the agreement and not
provide water service.
The public hearing was closed.
