AREA BOUNDED ON THE NORTH BY S. W. 7TH STREET, ON

cations of the Comprehensive Land Use Plan by changing to LI an area

Mr. Ralph G. Wilcke, 80 N.Eo 4th Avenue, Delray Beach, spoke
from the floor concerning the total area being changed to LI Light
Industrial. He questioned whether or not the City would be cutting
themselves off from the County by rezoning this area. Mayor Scheifley
explained the City is attempting to see that the County observes the
City's Master Land Use Plan within the reserve area and if the coopera-
tion from the County is forthcoming, they will not allow some of the
more liberal uses in the COunty zone such as additional cement plants,
etc. Mr. Tore Wallin stated the Planning and Zoning Board is attempt-
ing to make the LI zoning as 'attractive as possible and for this reason,
the Board has determined all activity shall be in closed buildings.
There being no further objections, the Public Hearing was closed.
Mrs. Krivos moved for passage of Resolution No. 26-74, seconded by Mr.
Randolph. Mr. Weekes stated that passage of this Resolution would
allow a good deal of acreage devoted to Light Industrial use, and by
adding this rezoning to the existing Light Industrial, there would be
an over-preponderance of LI zoning. Mr. Weekes stated he would vote
for the Resolution, but felt some thought should be given to the area
involved. Council agreed with Mr. Weekes.
Mayor Scheifley questioned the location of warehouses in the
area and ascertained Florida Power and Light Co. has a plant in the
southern area. Mr. Wallin agreed that this is a large area for LI,
but the Planning and Zoning Board took into consideration the growth
to the west creating a demand for more facilities. The alternative
would be RM-10 or RM-i5 and since the area already has light indus-
trial businesses, it is doubtful anyone would build multiple family
in the area.
Upon roll call, Council voted as follows: Mrs. Krivos - Yes;
Mr. Randolph - Yes;_ Hr. Saunders - Yes; ~.~r ~ . Weekes - Yes; Mayor
Scheifley - Yes.

trict concerning water wells and the withdrawal of water from under-

10.b.4o City Manager Mariott reported consideration should be given
to the issuance of a contract for the construction of a concession
stand and restrooms at Teen Town Center. Four bids were received by
the City, with the low bid being submitted by Campbell Construction
Company in the amount of $63,603.00.

It is recommended the contract be awarded to the low bidder,
Campbell Construction Company in the amount of $63,603.00. In the
initial allocation of the Federal ~evenue Sharing Funds, $35,000.00
was allocated for this purpose with an additional $23,500.00 being
provided in the budget for the last fiscal year; said funds were not
used and were encumbered. T~.e shortage of $5,103.00 should also come
from the Federal Revenue Sharing Funds' although this decision could
be made at a later date. The City Manager stated the building would
be 58' x 26' in size, located between the present ball field and the
projected ball field. The building will provide restroom facilities,
a concession stand and a small office. Determination will be made at

medical costs which are mounting. Council agreed to hear Mrs. Durante
at a workshop meeting.
10.b.6. Mr. Saunders suggested passing a Resolution recognizing Mr.
Douglas Hopkins who passed away recently. It was agreed by Council
that Mr. Hopkins had made many contributions to the community and
the City Attorney was requested to prepare an appropriate commendation.
10.b.7. Mr. Saunders stated the old Delray Beach Railroad Station is
for sale at the present time. He stated Mr. Woolbright, President of
the Historical Society, had discussed the possibility of purchasing tha
Station, but the Society could not locate a piece of property on which
to place it. Mr. Saunders asked whether or not the City could lease
the Society a piece of property for 99 years if ~he Society could
raise the money to have the building moved. At present, the Station
is on a farm west of town and must be moved intact since it cannot be
dismantled because of the construction. Discussion resulted concern-
ing acquiring the blocks to the east of the present City Hall for a
municipal complex to accomodate just such projects.
!0.b.8. ~.~ro Saunders questioned the hole nea£ ~he pumping station in
back of the Delray Bowling Lanes. The City Manager stated he would
handle the problem.
10.b.9o Mr. Weekes asked the status of placing the landscaping of the

would be the Council decision. All recommendations have been received

satisfactory, two more wells will he'sunk.
