6.a.1. The City Manager reported on the litigation involving the
Ci%'y o'f Delray Beach and the Congress Avenue Baptist Church. Mr. Bruce
Daniels, Attorney representing the City of Delray Beach, has requested
permission from the City to file a petition for rehearing in this case.
The City Attorney reported the two primary issues in the case were:
1 - there was an expansion of a non-conforming use without authorization
from the City; and 2 - there were violations of the City Building Codes,
Electrical Codes, etc. The Court found as a fact in the case that there
were no violations, and Mr. Daniels does not feel the evidence reflected
this finding. City Attorney Saberson stated the City has three options:
1 - file a petition for rehearing; 2 - appeal the case; or 3 - abide by
the judgment. He suggested filing a petition for rehearing. It was
pointed out the State Fire Marshall had listed several pages of viola-
tions. Mrs. Krivos moved that Attorney Bruce Daniels submit a petition
for rehearing on this suit, seconded by Mr. Gent, said motion passing
unanimously.
6.a.2. The City Manager stated several vacancies exist on the Board
of Adjustment and since there are some petitions pending for the April
24th meeting of the Board, it is necessary that appointments be made
prior to that time. The Board requires five regular members and five
alternate members; at present, there are two regular members and three
alternate members. The regular members are Mrs. Eleanor Gringle and Mr.
Charles Toth; the alternate members are the Rev. Semmie Taylor, Mr. J.
J. Singer and Mr. R. P. Price. Mr. Glenn R. Campbell has offered to
serve, but there is a question as to his legal residency in the City of
Delray Beach. The Board of Adjustment specifically requires that fox
a person to be eligible to.serve on the Board, he or she must be a resi-
dent of the City. Mayor Scheifley reported Mr. Campbell had filed home-
stead exemption outside of the City for the last two years. The four
persons willing to serve as alternate members are Messrs. Kenneth Grant,
John M. Ghent, Robert Kinkead and Mrs. William Matthews. Discussion
ensued among Council members resulting in a motion by Mr. Sanson to
table the item until a special meeting could be held on Monday, April
21st at 6:45 P.M. prior to workshop meeting, seconded by ~. Gent, said
motion passing unanimously.
6.a.3. The City Manager reported the City is in receipt of a request

way south of Atlantic Avenue, being Lots 6 and 7, Block 126. Mr. James
L. Bowen, the applicant, is requesting.a 15 foot easement across the
City property to provide access to his property. It is r.ecommended tD.e
request be approved. Mrs. Krivos moved to grant the 15 foot easement
across the City property westward of Marine Way to James L. Bowen to
provide ingress and egress to his property, Lots 6 and 7, Block 126,
seconded by b~r. Gent, said motion passing unanimously.
6.a.4. ~. Sanson requested that Item 9.b. be moved up on the agenda
due to the number of people attending the meeting from Tropic Palms
interested in this item. Mr. Sanson moved that Item No. 9.b. on the
agenda be rescheduled to Item 6.g., seconded by Mrs. Krivos, said motion
passing unanimously with Mr. Sanson abstaining.
6.a.5. Mrs. Krivos t~hanked the Council for taping the laSt workshop
meeting held on Wednesday afternoon. She asked if additional workshops
would be held during the day in the future. Discussion evolved con-
cerning possible alternatives.
6.b. The City Manager stated it is recommended that Council author-
ize a survey of the rock pit land at a cost of $800 with money to come
from the Professional Services Account in the Engineering Budget. Mr.
Sanson moved to authorize the survey of the rock pit land at a cost
of $800, seconded by Mr. Gent, said motion passing unanimously.
6.c. The City Manager recommended that Council authorize the exe-
CUtion of agreements with Palm Beach County with regard to traffi~
signals to be located at the intersection of West Atlantic Avenue and
8th and 10th Avenues. The agreements cover the installation and main-
tenance of the traffic signals. Mr. Randolph moved to authorize the
execution of the agreements, seconded by Mrs. Krivos, said motion
passing unanimously.
6.d. The City Attorney recommended that the Council pass a motion
~-i-~cting the City Attorney to file a motion with the State PERC

Council direct the City Attorney to immediately withdraw the applica-
tion for the mini-PERC ordinance, seconded by Mrs. Krivos, said motion
passing unanimously.
6.e. The City Manager recommended that council authorize the
execution of an agreement with Florida East Coast Railway Company with
regard to installation of existing traffic signalization at South Swinton
Avenue. The estimated cost to install flashing lights, bell and gates
is $46,127 with the City paying 10% or $4,613, and the rest of the funds
will come from the Department of Transportation and Federal Grant funds.
The City Manager reported this was only for the angle crossing. The
City's funds will come from unused signalization funds presently in the
budget and will not require additional budget appropriation. Mr. Ran-
dolph moved that the City authorize the execution of the agreement for
traffic signalization for South Swinton Avenue with the City paying
10% of the total cost amounting to $4,613, seconded by Mrs. Krivos,
said motion passing unanimously..
6.f. City Manager Mariott reported the following three quotations
have been received by the City for selling the City a boat for use Dy
the Police Department:
Bidder Bid
Galligan's Lakeside Marina, Inc. $3,033.00
Hypoluxo, Florida
D & D Marine Supply, Inc. 3,175.00
West Palm Beach, Florida
Delray Boats, Inc. 3,491.50
Delray Beach, Florida
It is recommended that the purchase be ma~e from the low
with the purchase money to come from funds provided in the current
budget for installation of closed circuit TV. The advisability of pro-
viding funds for closed circuit TV installation will be considered at
a future time. The reason for purchasing the boat is the increase of
burglaries along the Intracoastal Waterway in Delray Beach. The City
Manager stated existing personnel would be utilized for operation of a
boat patrol. Mr. Gent moved that Council approve the purchase of a boat
for the Police Department from Galligan's Lakeside Marina, Inc. in the
amount of $3,033, seconded by Mr. Randolph, said motion passing unani-
mously.
6.g. (9.b.) City Manager Mariott reported the Planning and Zoning Board
at a meeting held on March 18, 1975, recommended by unanimous vote that
the zoning on the property in Tropic Palms Subdivision, Section 29-46-43,
bounded on the north by Audubon Boulevard, on the east by the Hungerford
Canal, on the south by the LWDD C-15 Canal and on the west by the 1-95
right-of-way be changed as follows:
Lots 679-700 from RM-15 (Multiple Family) Dwelling to
RM-6 (Multiple Family) Dwelling.
Lots 637-678 from RM-15 (Multiple Family) Dwelling to
R-1AA (Single Family) Dwelling.
Lots 701-811 from RM-15 (Multiple Family) Dwelling to

A sketch was shown depicting the property in question. Mrs.
Kr~vos moved to deny the recommendation of the Planning and Zoning Board.
The motion failed for lack of a second. Mr. Sanson moved to sustain
the recommendation of the Planning and Zoning Board, seconded by Mr.
Gent.
Mr. G. William Anderson, representing First Federal Savings
and Loan Association of Miami, the owner of the property, stated the
recommendation of the Planning and Zoning Board was punitive and
-3-
4-14-75.
discriminatory. He reiterated the past agreements with the City and
requested that a compromise be considered to enable the property to be
developed at a marketable figure.
Mr. Frank Ellis, 553 Jaeger Drive, Tropic Palms, stated he
felt there should not be any change in the reco~aendation of the Plan-
ning and Zoning Board.
Mr. Henry C. Smith, 642 Lindell Boulevard, Tropic Palms,
Vice-President of the Tropic Palms Homeowners' Association, stated the
Association endorsed strongly the decision of the Planning and Zoning
Board. He stated the Association is in receipt of a memorandum from
the Public Utilities Director of the City stating if all the develop-
ments presently approved for this area were built, the utilities in
the area would be overloaded.
Mr. William Andrews, 100 N.E. 5th Avenue, Delray Beach, stated
he felt further study regarding development in the area would be neces-
sary to provide a valid solution to the question.
Mrs. Kay Larche, 5190 Garfield Road, Delray Beach, spoke of
the extensive land study performed by the City and reiterated that as
a result of the study, the recon~endation was made that this land be
designated as R-1AA.
Mr. Clay Olson, Delray Beach, stated the land value of the
area has more than doubled recently and he felt the bank had recouped
any possible loss from lowering the density.
Upon roll call, Council voted as follows: Mr. Gent - Yes;
Mrs. Krivos - No; Mr. Randolph - Yes; Mr. Sanson - Yes; Mayor Scheifley -
Yes. The motion passed with a 4 to 1 vote.

recommended. Mr. Randolph so moved, seconded by Mr. Sanson, said motion
passing unanimously.
7.d. The City Manager reported a communication has been received
~rom the Delray Beach American Little League requesting permission to
solicit funds on April 11 and 12, 1975. It is the recommendation of
the City Solicitations Committee that the request be granted. Mrs.
Krivos moved to approve the dates that have already passed of April 11
and 12, 1975, for the solicitation of the Delray Beach American Little
League, seconded by )~. Randolph, said motion passing unanimously.
7.e. City Manager Mariott reported the County.has provided the
~ity with a revised City-County Interlocal Agreement relative to the
Community Development Program which revision is made necessary by a
regulation of the Departmen~ of Housing and Urban Development. There
is a change in the approval period from the calendar year to the Federal
fiscal year and another major change concerns the City's power to veto
any development within the City; HUD is requesting the City's approval
-4-
4-14-75.
or disapproval to be made known to them prior to HUD's approval of the
County application rather than their granting a blanket approval to the
County. Mr. Randolph recommended the City enter into the revised Inter-
local Agreement between the City and the County, having studied the
agreement. Mr. Randolph moved that Council approve the revised Inter-
local Agreement relative to the Community Development Program, seconded
by Mr. Sanson for purposes of discussion. Mr. Sanson expressed reser- '-
vations concerning the inclusion of Delray Beach in the program. Mr.
Randolph explained the program and the participation of Delray Beach.
The City Manager stated he did not feel as confident now as he had con-
cerning the funding of all or a portion of the City's program during
the coming year; however, he felt there is no chance whatever that the
City of Delray Beach will receive any funding at all during the coming
year if the Interlocal Agreement is not signed. Discussion followed
resulting in the motion passing unanimously.
The City Manager stated the second portion of this item has
to do with the filing by the County of the County application with the
Department of Housing and Urban Development for Federal Grant Funds
totaling $1,050,000. It is recommended as provided by the guidelines
under this program that Council pass a motion that would approve the
County's filing of this application with the Federal Government and that
the City ask for an A-95 review of the program. Mr. Randolph moved for
the approval of the County's application submission for Community De-
velopment Block Grant Funds to HUD and approval of submission of the
A-95 report for review, seconded by Mr. Sanson, said motion passing
unanimously.

The following communication from the Beach Property Owners'
Association was received by Council members and a request was made that

"The Honorable James H. Scheifley
Mayor
City of Delray Beach, Florida
Dear Mayor Scheifley:
When Mr. Brinkley, attorney for Denny's Restaurants, appeared
before Council on Monday, March 28th, he gave a very con-
vincing presentation on the wisdom of having uniform hours
of operation for all businesses in Delray Beach. While
most local businesses, other than those serving intoxicating
beverages, can stay open 24 hours a day, it seems that this
privilege is not accorded establishments along the two strips
of Federal Highway and a portion of Atlantic Avenue. Mr.
Brinkley feels this policy is discriminatory and should be
repealed.
This latter approach to Council is, we believe, contrary to
Denny's first approach to Council. Three of our Trustees
remember attending a Council meeting in which the Denny
representative clearly asked for an exception to the present
ordinance.
The majority of the Trustees of this organization believe
that the most recent approach to Denny's proposed project is
the most reasonable. But these same Trustees also contend
that neither of the two alternatives is acceptable to the
vast majority of Delray's residents and taxpayers.
At a regularly scheduled meeting of the Board of Trustees
held Monday, April 7, 1975, and after long and intensive
discussion of the subject, the Board passed the following
resolution, and asked that it be distributed to all City
officials and to members of the press:
RESOLVED: 1. ~hat the Board of Trustees of the Beach
Property Owners' Association at its regular
meeting held Monday, April 7, 1975, calls
upon the Council of Delray Beach, Florida, to
deny the petition of Denny's Restaurant for a
24-hour-a-day operation, and further,
2. calls upon Council to negate all ordinances
now applicable to hours of operation of business
establishments, and to enact a new and enforceable
ordinance that prohibits any business from
operating 24 hours a day, and defines "open"
hours as from sunrise to not later than 2 A.M.
The only exceptions would be funeral homes,

come into Delray Beach. Considerable discussion ensued among Council
members and members of the audience concerning various aspects of having
Denny's Restaurant operate 24 hours a day. Mr. Michael Brinkley, attorney

25% of their business (on a nationwide average) is done between 11:00
