08-13-79 AUGUST 13, 1979
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., Monday,
August 13, 1979, with Mayor Leon M. Weekes, presiding and City Manager
J. Eldon Mariott, Assistant City Attorney Clifford Shandy and Council
members Malcolm T. Bird, Charlotte G. Durante, James H. Scheifley, and
Willard V. Young, present.
1. The opening prayer was delivered by Mayor Weekes.
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 July 23, 1979, seconded by Mrs. Durante. Said motion passed
unanimous ly.
4. Mayor Weekes stated that last week Dr. Eschenburg gave him a
booklet commemorating the 25th anniversary of the founding of Delray's
Sister City, Miyazu, Japan. Dr. Eschenburg and others associated with
the Friends of Morikami and the Sister City Committee are going to
Louisville at the end of this week to participate in the Sister City
Program. The Sister City tie with Miyazu is strong and growing thanks
to the work of people like Dr. Eschenburg and others.
5.a. Mr. Willie Sharpe, 13 S.W. 14th Avenue, stated that there
are three houses behind him between an alley and the alley hasn't been
cleaned since 1-95 was put through. These three houses are filthy;
there is garbage thrown in the alley. He hopes that the City will do
something about it. On the corner of 1st Street and 13th Avenue, a man
keeps three trucks parked; you can't even manage to get around the
corner. He hopes the City will do something about that situation also.
The City Manager stated that he spoke to Mr. Sharpe this
morning. His complaints were put on a complaint request form and he was
told that it would be taken care of. The Building Inspection Department
reported back this afternoon stating that it had been investigated and
arrangements had been made to clean it up.
6.a. There were no items submitted through the City Manager.
6.b. Mayor Weekes presented a City Service Award to Mr. John L.
Pitts, III, for his service as a member of the Civil Service Board. He
stated that it always gives him a lot of pleasure to award one of these
tokens of appreciation to a citizen who has devoted a lot of time and
energy to the betterment of the City.
Mr. Pitts accepted the award and thanked Council. He
recommended that Council seriously consider two-year appointments in-
stead of four-year appointments to the Civil Service Board as the
duration of terms on the Board.
Mayor Weekes asked the City Manager to schedule Mr. Pitts'
suggestion for discussion at a future workshop meeting.
6.c. The City Manager reported that Thomas J. and Patricia
Woolley are the owners of Lot 341, 3rd Section, Tropic Isle Subdivision
and it has been determined by the City Engineering Department that the
property is in violation of the City's Seawall Ordinance. Notification
has been given to Mr. Woolley to install a seawall and he has declined
to do so. This item was on the agenda of the last regular City Council
meeting at which time Council set a public hearing to be held at
tonight's meeting. Council should, at tonight's hearing or within a
reasonable time thereafter, render its decision in the form of a reso-
lution either affirming, modifying or reversing the determination of the
Administration that a nuisance exists on the subject property.
Mr. Church, City Engineer, reported that the City passed an
ordinance concerning erosion control and a public nuisance in terms of
waterfront property. Their tradition was that as they received com-
plaints, they would investigate the situations. To date they have
received nearly twenty; they have investigated them and notified the
?28
property owners. They have received compliance with the exception of
one property. By compliance, he means that the property owners, after
being notified, have obtained a building permit or installed a seawall,
essentially in order to relieve the erosion control problem. Their
position in the Engineering Department was that they would respond to
where they received a complaint. They had gotten a complaint from a
property owner several properties to the east of Mr. Woolley and after
that they received a complaint about Mr. Woolley's property. They
investigated and found that there was erosion occuring on the adjacent
property as a result of Mr. Woolley's property not having adequate
erosion prevention and as a result they notified him.
Mr. Thomas J. Woolley, 917 Sunset Road, Boynton Beach,
stated that he owns Lot 341, Tropic Isles. The complaint was not made
by the City originally; it was made by a property owner who does not own
a house there, who lives in Canada and made a complaint through a lawyer
in Canada. His lot does not have a seawall and he does not intend to
build one. There is no seawall next door to him. The Statute they're
dealing with, 15-4.1, mentions construction of a seawall if, in fact,
the situation threatens or endangers the public health, safety or wel-
fare, or impedes the navigability of any canal. They're talking about a
dead-end canal; there are no other boats further west of him, they're
not impeding any traffic or hurting the public safety or welfare. The
real problem that was made a complaint was that the lawyer for the
people next door mentioned that maybe some fill may be going around
their seawall and going into the water. If the fellow loses any fill,
he'll be glad to get it back up on his property and sand bag the sides;
there's no problem about that. He doesn't think that this is a situa-
tion that he needs to put up a big seawall just to please somebody who
is up north in Canada who's not going to build there anyway for some
time.
Mr. Church responded that, basically, the Engineering De-
partment is looking for Mr. Woolley to prevent erosion across his
property and washing out the neighbor's property where a seawall has
been constructed. His response is that instead of putting up a seawall,
he'll make arrangements to have the fill replaced. That may or may not
be an adequate solution.
Mayor Weekes suggested that they take this under advisement
and, in the meantime, they'll get an opinion from the City Attorney as
to what their alternatives are and they will have an opportunity to go
down and look at it.
Mr. Bird moved that they table consideration of this item
until a subsequent formal Council meeting, seconded by Mr. Young. Said
motion passed unanimously.
Mr. Nelson Lopez, 935 Hyacinth Drive, stated that he owns
property near Mr. Woolley's and he is in favor of a seawall being built
on Mr. Woolley's property because it would stop the erosion and the
water overflow.
6.d. The City Manager reported that on July 26, 1979, the City
conducted a public auction for the sale of surplus City items bringing a
total of $4891.50. It is recommended that Council approve the action
taken and the sale of the items.
Mr. Bird moved that the surplus property auction be rati-
fied, seconded by Mr. Young. Said motion passed unanimously.
6.e. The City Manager reported that Council should consider
authorizing execution of an amendment to the Water and Sewer Service
Agreement dated October 6, 1978, between the City of Delray Beach and
D.G.C. Associates. This was discussed at the August 6, 1979, workshop
meeting and Council approval is recommended. This adds 28 acres to the
present development.
Mrs. Durante moved for the approval of the agreement between
the City of Delray Beach and D.G.C. Associates, seconded by Mr. Bird.
Said motion passed unanimously.
- 2 - 8/13/79
6.f. The City Manager reported that it was decided by Council at
workshop on August 6th to initiate action at tonight's meeting leading
to the floating of a General Obligation Bond Issue for financing acqui-
sition of public facilities and equipment. The City Attorney's office
was requested to research the subject and to give an opinion at tonight's
meeting as to whether the City would be required to follow the Competi-
tive Negotiations Act with respect to retaining an architect for a fire
station to be included in the issue, inasmuch as Mr. Richard Hanna was
to design two stations several years ago, while only one was designed
and built because of a shortage of funds.
Mayor Weekes stated that he has a letter from the City
Attorney in which he states that unless the plans which were done under
the original contract can be used, the City would have to go to the
Competitive Negotiations Act for the new fire station.
The City Manager added that the way he interprets the City
Attorney's opinion is that they would.have to go the full route under
the Competitive Negotiations Act. He checked the minutes from August of
1970 when Council gave authorization to retain Richard Hanna for the
design of two fire stations; one in the southwest area which was de-
signed and built and the other on the beach. They do not have plans
that could be used without modification for that site; they would need
new plans.
The City Manager recommended that Council pass a motion
authorizing the Administration and the City Attorney's office to take
whatever steps are necessary for the initiation of a General Obligation
Bond Issue, amount and details to be filled in later, and also to initi-
ate whatever actions are necessary under the Competitive Negotiations
Act leading to the obtaining of an architect for the design of a fire
station.
Mr. Scheifley m6ved that Council authorize the City Admini-
stration and the City Attorney's office to take whatever steps are
necessary to arrange for a General Obligation Bond Issue to finance
public facilities and equipment and also to undertake the retention of
an architect under the Competitive Negotiations Act, seconded by Mrs.
Durante.
Before roll call the following discussion was had: Mayor
Weekes stated that the last time they went through the Competitive
Negotiations procedure, it was made clear that in no way did this
Council intend to go through the same kind of thing that they went
through then. He knoWs that there are different methods for handling
the final selection of an architect or engineer and he doesn't want to
delay this matter but he would like for Council to give direction to the
Administration as to how they wish to proceed with the selection of an
architect in compliance with the Act. One way is that the Administra-
tion can select three architects in order of preference and present
those to Council for consideration. Last time the Council chose to hear
a presentation by each one of the persons so selected and then select
one of the three; the problem with that is that these are all pro-
fessionals and they all have expertise in their field. It was a very
embarrassing situation. Those who were on the Council at that time
decided they weren't going to go through that again.
Mrs. Durante stated that she would like to have the Admini-
stration select three and then present those three recommendations to
Council. The last time they went through this, Council kept saying that
they prefer to choose an architect from Delray Beach. If that's what
they are going to do, they should put that in the advertisement from the
very beginning so that people from out of town won't bother to apply.
The City Manager stated that Council should indicate whether
preference or restricted to Delray Beach; there's a big difference.
The consensus of Council was preference.
In response to Mr. Young, the City Manager stated that
included in his recommendation for a motion was that the amount of bond
issue and the items to be included would be determined by Council at
some future date.
- 3 - 8/13/79
Mr. Scheifley amended his motion to include the wording as
stated, seconded by Mr. Bird. Said amended motion passed unanimously.
Mayor Weekes stated that he is most anxious to proceed with
this because the projects that are proposed under it are much needed by
the City. Mr. Scheifley asked if it could be put on the next workshop
agenda.
The City Manager replied that if it's possible, it will be
put on the next workshop agenda.
Mrs. Durante asked at what point will they decide when
they're going to have the referendum. The City Manager replied that
they can't discuss dates yet because they have to find out the time
schedule on several of the steps before they can determine a date for
the referendum.
The Assistant City Attorney stated that he spoke to Mr.
Breen today to get some idea of the time frame and they will need two
weeks after they get the information before they prepare the resolution;
then they'll need thirty days after the resolution is passed before they
can have the election. Early December is feasible.
6.g. The Cit~ Manager reported that pursuant to discussion at the
August 6th workshop meeting, reappointments or new appointments for the
following Community Appearance Board members whose terms expire on
August 25, 1979, should be considered by Council: Robert Currie, Donald
Goodrum and John E. Gomery, Jr., regular members, and Mrs. Vince Canning,
alternate member. All appointments are for a two-year term.
Mayor Weekes stated that one suggestion that has been brought
forward is that they have another landscape architect on the Board and
Mr. Jerry Turner was mentioned; Mr. Turner has lived in Delray Beach for
about 30 years.
Mrs. Durante suggested that they go ahead and fill the
regular slots on the CAB as they discussed at workshop, leave that one
vacancy in the alternate slot and wait to hear from Mr. Jerry Turner as
to whether Or not he would be willing to serve.
Mr. Bird stated that Mrs. Durante suggested several weeks
ago and he agrees with her that perhaps someone in the sign business
should be added to the Board. He recommended Shelly Greathouse or Don
McLaren.
Mayor Weekes suggested that one alternative would be to
advance Mr. Rubsamen to a regular member of the Board to take Mr.
Currie's Place, to advance Mrs. Canning to a regular member of the Board
and they would then have a Board composed of Simon, Canning, Armas,
Goodrum and Rubsamen. Then they would need two alternates; one to fill
Mr. Gomery's spot and one to fill Mrs. Canning's spot.
Mr. Bird moved that Mrs..Canning and Mr. Rubsamen be ele-
vated from alternate to regular members of the Board; Mrs. Canning would
replace Mr. Gomery and Mr. Rubsamen would replace Mr. Currie, and that
would leave two vacancies as alternate members, seconded by Mr. Scheifley
Said motion passed unanimously.
Mayor Weekes stated the ordinance says that one of the
alternates shall be an architect if it's possible. So they need to
determine whether or not there is an architect willing to serve. If
not, then they will go another way with it. He will contact Mr. Turner
and Mr. Bird has already contacted Ms. Greathouse and Mr. McLaren. Next
Monday at workshop, they will come back with whatever input they have.
Mrs. Durante stated that since the ordinance says that one
of the alternates should be an architect and Mr. Currie is willing to
stay on the Board until they find a replacement, perhaps he can stay on
as an alternate to fill that architect slot until they find a replace-
ment.
- 4 - 8/13/79
Mr. Bird moved that Mr. Currie be asked to serve as an
alternate member until a replacement can be found, seconded by Mrs.
Durante. Said motion passed unanimously.
6.h. The City Manager reported that Council should designate, by
motion, the City's voting representative for the Florida League of
Cities Convention to be held in Kissimmee, October 25, 26 and 27, 1979.
Mr. Scheifley moved that Mayor Weekes be designated as the
official voting delegate for the Delray Beach City Council, seconded by
Mrs. Durante. Said motion passed unanimously.
The City Manager reported that they have not yet received
the official application blank announcement in regard to the conference
so today he had the portion in the Florida Municipal Record copied. He
passed out copies to Council.
6.i. The City Manager reported that Dadme Development Corporation
has requested City water and sewer service to serve a planned 8.8-acre
shopping center at the southwest corner of the intersection of West
Atlantic Avenue and Military Trail. This property is located outside
the City. If approval for water service is given, it is recommended
that the service not begin until such time as either the water plant is
expanded and in operation or until the City receives a 3 million gallon
per day increase approval from the DER and the Health Department.
In response to Mr. Scheifley, the City Manager stated that,
at the City Attorney's ~uggestion, it does no harm to have the annex-
ation provision in as an option for Council rather than precluding
Council from being able to annex should they desire to do so.
Mr. Bird stated that, as he recalls, the City Attorney had
some reservation about a developer, at some point in time, being able to
force annexation based on having this provision in the agreement.
Mr. Bird moved for approval subject to the change in the
agreement to eliminate the requirement for annexation and make it simply
a utilities agreement.
Upon the advice of the City Manager, Mr. Bird made a sub-
stitute motion.
Mr. Bird moved that Council approve the standard developers
agreement for the providing of water and sewer service without any
reference at all to annexation and with the service to be provided when
the City has the increment added or the plant expanded, seconded by Mr.
Young. Upon roll call Council voted as follows: Mr. Bird - Yes; Mrs.
Durante - No; Mr. Scheifley - Yes; Mr. Young - Yes; Mayor Weekes - No.
Said motion passed with a 3 to 2 vote.
Before roll call the following discussion was had: Mayor
Weekes stated that he feels that the City should be left that option at
its discretion for the future. Mr. Scheifley stated that if they pass
this motion, what is to prevent some future City Council from annexing
this property. The Assistant City Attorney replied that a future
Council could annex it. Mr. Scheifley stated that, in that case, he
sees no problem.
At this point the roll was called to the motion.
6.j. The City Manager reported that Council should consider
authorizing transmittal of a letter drafted by Daniel Kotulla, Planning
Director, and endorsed by the Planning & Zoning Board, to the DER as the
City's response to DER's comments of June 7, 1979, concerning the City's
Proposed Comprehensive Plan.
Mrs. Durante moved that Council sustain the comments and the
responses from the Planning Director as unanimously adopted by the
Planning and Zoning Board, seconded by Mr. Bird. Said motion passed
unanimously.

7.a. Mayor Weekes acknowledged receipt of the minutes of the
Beautification Committee meeting held on July 5, 1979.
7.b. The City Manager reported that the City is in receipt of an
application from James A. Moushegian for City water service to serve Lot
3, Block 3, Kingsland Pines, 4552 Barrett Street, located outside the
City. There is a single family residence on this property. The appli-
cant having executed the City's standard agreement for the providing of
water service outside the City conditioned upon the applicant's property
being annexed into the City when such is eligible for annexation,
approval of the applicant's request for water service is recommended.
This property is not eligible for annexation at this time.
Mr. Scheifley moved that they sign the standard water ser-
vice agreement for James A. Moushegian with the standard annexation
agreement, seconded by Mrs. Durante. Said motion passed unanimously.
8.a. The City Manager reported that Resolution No. 59-79 relative
to establishing Public Procedures and to provide real property owners
with notice of all official actions which will regulate the use of their
property in regard to the City's adoption of its Comprehensive Plan,
pursuant to the provisions of the Local Government Comprehensive
Planning Act, is before Council for consideration. Council should
consider setting a date for a workshop session on the Comprehensive Plan
and Alternatives. it is recommended that it be considered at the work-
shop meeting on August 20th.
The City Manager presented Resolution No. 59-79:
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF DELRAY
BEACH, FLORIDA, UNDER THE "LOCAL GOVERNMENT COMPREHENSIVE

The City Manager presented Resolution No. 60-79:
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF DELRAY
BEACH, FLORIDA, AUTHORIZING AND DIRECTING THE MAYOR TO

ANCE FOR COMMUNITY SERVICES ACT; PROVIDING THAT THE CITY

8.c. The City Manager recommended that this item be skipped over;
they have determined today a few things that need to be done.
8.d. The City Manager reported that Resolution No. 62-79 awarding
a contract for Water and Sewer Improvements is before Council for con-
sideration. A new draft of this resolution was prepared today and
Council should have a copy of it. The change is in the date on page 2
from September 13, 1979 to November 1, 1979. It is recommended that the
resolution be adopted.
Mr. Herbert Thiele, representing the City Attorney's office,
stated that the changes involve making sure that the City has the money
behind the contract. The bid specifications stated that the City had to
execute the contract on or before September 13, 1979, as the resolution
was originally drafted. The bond validation proceeding, however, is
going to take them much longer than that. The date of the hearing is
now set for September 28, 1979; there is a 30 day appeal time and that
would take them to October 28, 1979 before they could finally close on
any sale of the bonds. The people at Intercounty who submitted the bid
have submitted a letter to the City through Russell & Axon saying that
they would be willing to keep their bid open until November 1, 1979.
That would allow sufficient time. The fiscal agent in Tallahassee as
well as Mudge Rose have said that the City will be able to, after the
September 28th hearing assuming all goes well, project an October 10th
sale time during the appeal period. The sale would be made subject to
the appeal with closing, the exchange to be done and the bonds delivered
on October 30th. That would give them two days before November 1st and
at that point in time they must either execute or the bidder may with-
draw his bid.
The City Manager presented Resolution No. 62-79:

(Copy of Resolution No. 63-79 is on file in the official
Resolution Book)
Mayor Weekes stated that he brought this up and it simply
adds whatever weight this resolution might have to the application by
Leadership Cablevision to FCC for approval of Channel 17. It gives
viewers a broader scope, particularly in the area of sports. Under the
terms of the FCC agreement, they're allowed to bring in one channel and
they have already done that. Therefore, they've appealed to FCC to give
them permission to have'one other "optional" channel which would be
Channel 17.
