The City Attorney stated he had determined that taxicabs are required to have an occupational license under State Law and under the ordinances of the City. 4.b. Mr. Gent wished the City Attorney a happy birthday. 4.c. Mr. Gent referred to Section 14-a(9) of tke Trash Ordinance which states "persons, firms or corporations engaged in commercial landscaping or lawn maintenance" should haul away trash.

Mr. Gent referred to the 1975 Conference on Sign Legislation to be held at the Diplomat Hotel in Hollywood, Florida, on Friday, October 10, 1975 and suggested someone from the City should attend. The City Manager stated he would have the administration represented. 4.e. Mr. Sanson explained he had been questioned by a citizen as to why he did not have an occupational license to work in the City. He explained he worked for an insuranc~ agency and it was not his agency. He read a letter from Mr. H. K. Jones, Director of Taxes, Penn Mutual, as follows: "Gentlemen: The Attorney General of the State of Florida in Opinion 074-209 dated July 19, 1974, concluded that the State has preempted the licensing of insurors and neither counties nor municipalities may impose an occupational license tax on insurors. Therefore, no license tax is due your City. The proper license fee has been paid to the Stat~ for our agents writing business in Florida. Any further questions you may have on this matter should be referred to the State Attorney General's office." 4.f. Mr. Sanson referred to the expenses incurred for legal fees required to implement the Mini-PERC for the City. He stated the letter from the Alley, Alley and Blue firm dated August 27th reads that as of July 31, 1975, the total cost to the City of Delray Beach in connection with the local option has been $6,408.25.

Mayor Scheifley announce~ a Special Meeting of City Council would be held on Thursday, September 11, 1975, at 7:00 P.M., to take action on Ordinance No. 33-75. 158 4..h.. The City Manager stated he had discussed County participation in a swimming pool. on the beach with Commissioner Medlen and suggested the item be placed on a workshop meeting to be held on Thursday prior to the special council meeting. 5.a. Mr. Ted Bollinger, Ft. Lauderdale, President of the Kibitzers Club, Inc.,. spoke concerning the applications pending for bingo permits. He listed the Community Action Council, the Gospel Association for the Blind, the Ascension Catholic Church, the Con~ittee to Reform the Courts, and the Hopewell Baptist Church as the applicants. He stated the Supreme Court of the State of Florida has ruled that bingo is legal provided it is for a charitable purpose. He asked what the position of Council is on this matter. Mayor Scheifley stated the matter has been turned over to the City Attorney to research and Council would not render a decision until the City Attorney offers an opinion on the matter. The City Attorney reported he had discussed this with the Attorney General's office and they have not rendered an opinion on the definition of what constitutes a full-time lease under the Statute, or to what extent the organization might benefit from the proceeds. He said he felt the opinior: that would be forthcoming is that a full-time organization would be construed to be only an organization that leases premises full-time, 365 days a year, exclusively, and that an organization that benefits from the proceeds must benefit to the extent of 100% of each game. The City Attorney further stated because of the administrative burden caused by the need to investigate the applicants that he would, prefer to see the State Attorney General's office handle the issuance of permits. He suggested the matter be discussed at a workshop meeting sometime within the next several weeks. Council indicated they had a lot of questions concerning thiS matter. Mr. Bollinger stated the Kibitzers Club has been discussing the possibility of filing a Declaratory Judgment action against the City to determine whether or not there is any leqal standing for the City in this matter. The City AttOrney replied ~e :~ity Ordi- nance requires an applicant to comply with the State Statute. dr. Bol- linger explained the Committee to Reform the Courts was composed of · accountants and attorneys. Mr. Gent stated he felt the money from bingo should go to charities that service Delray Beach. He said he would like .to see Council amend the ordinances to not allow bingo games that would benefit anyone outside of the City of Delray Beach. 5.b. Mrs. Delores Smith, member of AARP ~and the National Association of Teachers, requested permission to charter a bus to pick up and dis- charge persons at the Adult Community Center. The purpose, would be to have a central location for the members of the groups to congregate for chartered trips. The City Attorney stated he would check on the matter. 5.c. Mrs. Elsie Hauth, 3520 Lowson Blvd., Delray Beach, asked if a City ordinance exists that prohibits trucks, trailers, campers and boats from parking in driveways. Mayor Scheifley suggested Mrs. Hauth call Mr. Roy Reid to determine if a violation of .ordinances exists. 5.d. Mr. Nathaniel Moody, 17 N.W. 4th Avenue, Delray Beach, spoke ~equesting that a light be placed on a telephone pole behind the Georgia Town Tavern and the Westside Liquor Store because of robbery and a high crime rate in the area. The City Manager stated he would check into the matter. 5.e. Mr. Irwin W. Kresser, 234 N.W. 17th Street, Delray Beach, asked that a traffic light be installed at N.E. 5th Avenue and N.E. 1st , Street. The City Manager stated the County had conducted a survey at that location and had determined a light was not warranted. Mayor Scheifley stated this would be checked again. 6.a. There were no additional items to be placed on the agenda. 6.b. The City Manager reported Mr. Ken Ellingsworth of the Chamber of Commerce, on behalf of the City's Bicentennial Committee, had checked with the Federal Government and with tile State of Florida with regard to new legislation that permits the filing of an application for grant funds by those places that have been recognized as a bicentennial -2- 9-8-75. 159 community. Delray Beach falls in this category and Mr. Ellingsworth recommended that the City file such an application; it is necessary that the application be in Washington by today. Therefore, the appli- cation has been prepared and filed in 'the amount of $250,000 with the realization that some or no money could materialize from the request. The application is to the United States Department of Commerce and is under the auspices of the American Revolution Bicentennial Administra- tion. Mr. Gent moved that the application for $250,000 for Federal Grant money to be used for development cost for the Southwest 4th Ave- nue Recreational Complex be approved, seconded by Mr. Randolph. The motion passed unanimously. 6.c. The City Manager reported the City has received a number of complaints regarding an ordinance-violation on property located at approximately 50 N.W. 18th Avenue. Many truck loads of junk are stored on the subject premises. A letter was sent by the Building Inspection Department on July 28, 1975 to Mr. Joseph Rolle, the owner, notifying him of the ordinance violation and directing him to remove the viola- tion. Mr. Rolle is in Raiford Prison on other charges and the ordinance violation has not been corrected. Under the circumstances, the City Attorney has advised the best action to be taken is for Council to auth- orize, by motion, the City Attorney's office to take appropriate legal action to abate or remove the nuisance. The City Attorney stated this could not be handled under normal procedures to abate nuisances since the junk has salvage value and the City should procure a court declara- tion that it constitutes a nuisance in order to protect the City from a later damage action. Mr. Randolph moved that the City take every action possible to have the ordinance violation taken care of as soon as possible, seconded by Mr. Gent. Council asked if this action were taken if Mr. Rolle could be required to bear the legal costs. The City Attorney suggested the motion be amended to state Mr. Rolle would bear the costs, if possible. Mr. Randolph accepted the amendment and Mr. Gent seconded. The motion passed unanimously. 6.d. The City Manager reported the following quotations have been received for selling the City a flat-bed dump body to be installed on an International truck chassis: Bidder Bid Service Equipment Company $2,020 West Palm Beach Callahan Motor Company, Inc. 2,195 Dania It is recommended that the purchase be made from the low bidder, Service Equipment Company, in the amount of $2,020. Sufficient funds are provided in the 1975-76 budget for this purchase. Mr. Sanson moved for the bid to install a flat bed dump body on an International truck chassis be awarded to Service Equipment Company in West Palm 'Beach in the amount of $2,020, funds to be provided from the 1975-76 budget, seconded by Mr. Randolph, said motion passing unanimously. 6.e. The City Manager stated it is recommended that Council approve a right-of-way map which reflects an increased width of right-of-way on Old Dixie Highway both north and south of Linton Boulevard as re- quested by the County. The County is in the process of acquiring additional right-of-way to provide turning lanes on Old Dixie Highway. The City would not have any financial obligation, but since the property is in the City, the County is asking for the City's consent for the right-of-way widening at this location. The proper~y is owned by pri- vate parties. Mr. Randolph moved for the approval of a right-of-way map to be provided the County for increased width of right-of-way on Old Dixie Highway in the vicinity of Linton Boulevard as requested by the County, seconded by Mr. Gent, said motion passing unanimously. 7.a. The City Manager stated the Aronimink Corporation has re- quested approval of extension of its site plan from September 10, 1975 to March 10, 1976, a period of six months. The City Manager recommended -3- 9-8-75. 160 the request be referred to the Planning and Zoning Board for study and recommendation. Mrs. Krivos moved the request for approval of site plan extension by Aronimink be submitted to the Planning and Zoning Board for study and recommendation, seconded by Mr. Randolph. Mr. Joseph Martin, representing Aronimink Condominium Corporation, 660 Dover Street, Boca Raton, stated the Episcopal Church is negotiating with Aronimink Corporation to continue to develop the Canterbury Life Care Community Residence. Mr. Gent stated he understood from the Episcopal group involved that Mr. Martin's statement is not true; the Episcopal Church is in negotiation with Lago Del Rey at a much lower price per acre. He said he believed this is a method for Aronimink to sell the property to someone else. Mr. Sanson concurred with Mr. Gent. The motion passed unanimously. Mr. Sanson stated the approval or denial of pending site plans has been dragging on for approximately four months since the ordinance was passed for extension of site plans. He requested the remaining 11 or 12 developments be considered by Council. He stated those developments that have not taken the time to request an extension should be denied. Mayor Scheifley requested the City Manager to bring the remaining developments up for action as soon as possible. 8..a. The City Manager presented Resolution No. 42-75. A RESOLUTION MAKING APPROPRIATIONS OF SUMS OF MONEY FOR ALL NECESSARY EXPENDITURES OF THE CITY OF DELRAY BEACH, FLORIDA, FOR THE PERIOD FROM THE 1ST DAY OF OCTOBER, 1975, to the 30TH DAY OF SEPTEMBER, 1976; TO PRESCRIBE THE TERMS, CONDITIONS AND PROVISIONS WITH RESPECT TO THE ITEMS OF APPROPRIATIONS AND THEIR PAYMENT; AND TO REPEAL ALL RESOLUTIONS WHOLLY IN CON- FLICT WITH THIS RESOLUTION, AND ALL RESOLUTIONS INCON- SISTENT WITH THIS RESOLUTION TO THE EXTENT OF SUCH INCONSISTENCY. (Copy of Resolution No. 42-75 is attached to the official copy of these minutes.) The City Manager stated several items must be handled regarding the budget. One'is holding the public hearing on the budget itself; following the closing of the public hearing, ~Council should consider adoption of the Resolution adopting the budget for the 1975-76 fiscal year; then a public hearing should be held on the establishment of the tax rate for the 1975-76 year with action on adoption of the tax rate not to be taken until the next regular meeting of Council on September 22, 1975. The proposed budget has been revised to take into account all changes determined informally by Council at workshop, which changes are reflected in Resolution No. 42-75. The budget is predicated on a total tax rate of 9.1 mills, t~e same total tax rate as for the current fiscal year. A Public Hearing is required on the establishment of the tax rate because of the State law requirement that any time a tax is to be levied in excess of that proposed by the County Tax Appraiser for operating purposes, a public hearing must be held and it must be adver-. _ tised. The proposed operating millage has been increased, but the debt service millage has been decreased. The current year's operating millage is 7.57; the current debt service millage is 1.53 for a total millage of 9.1. The Tax Appraiser would approve for the coming year an operating millage of 7.803 mills. The City proposes an operating millage of 8.37 mills with a debt service of .73 for a total of 9.1. The total proposed budget, including all City funds that are incorporated in the budget, is $10,722,005. A Public Hearing wns held, having been legally advertised in compliance with the laws of the State of Florida and the Charter of the City of Delray Beach. Mayor Scheifley declared the Public Hearing open on adopting the budget as presented in Resolution No. 42-75. Mr. William Albaugh, 1112 N.W. 4th Avenue, Delray Beach, complained that the budget had been printed incorrectly in the newspaper and that the City Manager was making $55,000 or more. The procedures used in print- ing the budget were explained and it was also explained the City Manager's budget represented his entire office staff, not just his personal salary. Mr. J. W. Dunbar, 50 East Road, Delray Beach, asked how '--4-- 9-8-75. much of the $930,000 the City received from the Federal Government went into the debt reduction. The City Manager replied $131,350. There being no further objections or discussion, the Public Hearing was closed. Mr. Gent moved for the adoption of Resolution No. 42-75, seconded by Mr. Randolph. Upon roll call, Council voted as follows: Mr. Gent - Yes; Mrs. Krivos - Yes, with the exception of the increase in the Council- members' salaries; Mr. Randolph - Yes; Mr. Sanson - Yes, with the state- ment that he was opposed to the entire concept upon which the budget has been formed in the sense Council is using a substantial amount of Federal Revenue Sharing Funds to pay operating expenses; since there is no alter- native, he would support the budget as it is; Mayor Scheifley - Yes. The motion passed with a vote of 5 to 0. The City Attorney advised Council to hold a Public"Hearing on Resolution No. 43-75, and if Council adopts that resolution, then hold a Public Hearing on the millage and set the future date at which it will be adopted which would be September 22, 1975. 8.b.

It was explained that the $800,000 plus amount shown in the Florida League of Cities' publication r~presented~the State Revenue Sharing Funds. ~rs. Krivos asked why BoyntOn Beach re- ceived a larger portion than Delray Beach. The City Manager replied it is based on population and poverty count.

S. HIGHWAY NO. 1, NORTH OF MCCLEARY STREET, AND WEST OF INTRACOASTAL WATERWAY 'IN "RM-15 ~ND RM-6 MULTIPLE FAMILY DWELLING DISTRICT", AND "R-1AA SINGLE FAMILY DWELLING DISTRICT" AND AMENDING "ZONING MAP OF DELRAY BEACH, FLORIDA, 1972" . (Copy of Ordinance No. 41-75 is attached to the official copy of these minutes.) The City Manager explained the City initiated the rezoning and there are several property owners involved. The Planning and Zoning Board at a meeting held on July 15th recommended by unanimous vote the approv'al of the rezonings because (1) the RM-20 zoning is too intense a use adjacent to the R-1AA-B, (2) traffic generated by the RM-20 zoning would be detrimental to the promotion of the general welfare and public safety of the City, (3) the building heights allowed under the RM-20 zoning would have an adverse effect on adjacent properties by reducing light and air, and (4) RM-20 zoning is out of scale with the needs of the area and the City. A sketch was shown depicting the location of the property, lying in Sections 21-46-43 and .28-46-43. (.Map of the property --6-- 9-8-75. 163 under consideration is attached to the official copy of these minutes.) There are three different zoning changes involved. The City Manager read the caption of the ordinance. The City Attorney asked that the following appear in the official minutes: 1 - the court reporter did not start taking notes until Mr. Mariott began his description of the pro- perty being rezoned; and 2 - the City Clerk changed the tape of the minutes of the meeting while Mr. Mariott was reading the caption of the ordinance which was read in full. The City Attorney explained the history of this rezoning ordinance. In March, 1975, the Planning and Zoning Board was considering rezoning this property; at a hearing held in late March, Mr. Hoffmann appeared at the hearing requesting the Planning and Zoning Board to give him an opportunity to prepare a plan and come to the Planning and Zoning Board with his analysis of what he thought a proper use of his property would be. The Planning and Zoning Board acquiesced in his request and gave him sixty days in which to prepare the plan. He returned with an extensive plan which was pre- sented by ~. Taft Bradshaw along with representatives of the Hoffmann Corporation, including Mr. Hoffmann's attorney. The Planning and Zoning Board listened to an extensive presentation and the Board then readver- tised another public hearing which was held on July 15, 1975. The applicant has had ample opportunity for analysis of his property. Mr. Slinkman, attorney for the Hoffmann Corporation, requested that he be notified when this matter would be considered by Council. The City Attorney called him personally on Tuesday of last week and notified him this matter would be considered at this meeting. He called him again on Friday and talked with his secretary. Under the Home Rule Act, which is Chapter 166 of the Florida Statutes, a Public Hearing is not required on first reading. The City Attorney stated he had told Mr. Slinkman's secretary 'that if Mr. Slinkman would like to make a few comments at this meeting, Council would be happy to hear them and hold a public hearing at a later meeting. Mr. Sanson objected, stating he did not wish to hear the presentation a second time. The City Attorney replied he would not hear it a second time; he simply wanted Mr. Slinkman to make a few brief comments to appraise Council of his position. Mr. Kendall Slinkman, of the Farish and Farish law firm in West Palm Beach, representing Oliver'Hoffmann Corporation, stated Mr. Saberson was kind enough to contact him and to offer him the opportunity to make a few comments at this meeting. He said the Oliver Hoffmann Corporation is not the applicant, but is opposed to the rezoning. Mayor Scheifley asked for the address of Mr. Hoffmann and the address of the corporation. Mr. Slinkman replied the name and address of the corpora- tion is the Oliver Hoffmann Corporation, 800 So. Ocean Boulevard, Deer- field Beach; the owners of the property are Paul Hoffmann and his wife, Camille Hoffmann, at the same address. Mr. Slinkman stated the corpora- tion had prepared and presented a plan in March. He asked Council to give some thought to their own definitions in the City's zoning code as to what is RM-15 and what is RM-20, and how this property fits into the definitions. He also asked Council to give some thought to his client's vested rights in this property. He stated his client purchased the property at a time when RM-20 was going into effect; they took an option and exercised that option based on certain representations to them. Mayor Scheifley stated this was the last piece of property in the City zoned RM-20 and the new ordinances of the City do not include any RM-20; RM-15 is and will be the maximum allowed in the City. He stated all items will be taken into consideration by the Council. The City Attorney asked if anyone else wished to speak. Mr. James V. Somers, 111 N.W. 8th Street, Boca Raton, stated he was a co-owner of property in Parcel C which was part of the Heilman Estate. This piece of property has been in· litigation since 1965. He said they had received a judgment against the City of Delray Beach which would be appealed. He stated he objects to the zoning of R-1AA; the property was multiple family when it was purchased and the owners have a vested interest in i~. The City Attorney stated the litigation of the Heilman Estate has not interfered with the use of the property involved. He said he would like to give everyone present notice that this matter will be considered on second reading on October 13, 1975. Mr. Gent moved for the adoption of Ordinance No. 41-75 on first reading, seconded by Mr. Sanson. Mr. Sanson asked the City Manager if the size of the parcel of land precluded it from having to follow all ordinances of the City; he said the property has not been 9-8-75. kept up and is an eyesore, i.e., high grass, billboards, etc. Mr. Gent stated the billboards are in the City, but are on County-owned property. The City Attorney stated he would check on it. Mrs. Krivos stated anyone who takes the time to attend a Council meeting should certainly be granted the courtesy of being heard. Upon roll call, Council voted as follows: Mr. Gent - Yes; Mrs. Krivos - Yes; Mr. Randolph - Yes; Mr. Sanson - Yes; Mayor Scheifley - Yes. The motion passed with a 5 to 0 vote. 8.f.
