8.c. The city Manager presented RESOLUTION NO. 3-72.

$2,000,000 GENERAL OBLIGATION BONDS OF SAID
CITY FOR BEACH IMPROVEMENTS.

At the Mayor's request, the city Clerk read the Resolution in full.
Mayor Scheifley pointed out that there would be other items on the
Ballot in addition to the Presidential Preference Primary and the City's
General Obligation Bond issue in the March 14th election.

and final reading, on motion by Mr. Weekes and seconded by ~Ir. Saunders.

to the beach erosion program and the general obligation bond issue.
(1) The City Manag-er said that Reynolds Securities, Inc., represented
by Mr. Stanley E. Ross, has been the City's Fiscal Agent for son]e time.
He then read a letter dated October 13, 1971 from ~r. Ross with a proposal
-5- 1-24-72
concerning duties and fees in regard to a proposed $5,000,000 water and
sewer Revenue Bond issue. He said he had discussed the $2,000,000 general
obligation, bond issue with Mr. Ross, and Mr. ~oss informed him it would be
agreeabl~ to him and his company to represent the City on this issue under
the same te~ns and conditions as set forth in the October 13th letter with
only one modification, that being where he quotes a fee of 3/10 of one per
cent for the first $5,000,000 of the principal amount of bonds issued and
sold, plus 1/10 of one per cent of the principal amount thereof in excess
of $5,000,000; provided, however, that the minimum fee for each sale shall
be not less than $7,500. The City Manager said that since this general
obligation bond issue would only be $2,000,000, the minimum fee would be
$7,500. He recommended that Mr. Stanley Ross of Reynolds Securities, Inc.,
be designated as the City's Fiscal Agent for the $2,000,000 general obliga-
tion bond issue, under the terms and conditions as proposed. It was so
moved by Mr. Youngblood, seconded by Mr. Saunders and unanimously carried.

vices in regard to the beach program, the City Manager said that members
of Council had been furnished copies of a proposed agreement between the
City and the firm of Arthur V. Strock & Associates, Inc., and that he
recommends approval of that agreement as submitted to them subject to the
three following modifications.
1. To paragraph 3.h., Page 1, the following words are to be
added. "..., including off-shore sand and magnetometer
surveys."
2. To Article 3, Paragraph 3, Page 2, the following words are
to be added. "(Fee to be prorated based on construction

3. Add a new Paragraph, 3.d., to Article 3, Page 2, to read
as follows:
"3.d. The City:
1. Shall pay for services referred to in paragraph
3h, page 1 and paragraphs 2 and 3c, page 2.

vices performed under paragraph 3, 3a and 3b,
page 2, such payment not to exceed $35,000 if
the agreement is terminated on March 15, 1972."
During general discussion by Council Members and explanation by the
City Manager of the modifications to the Strock Agreement and certain
functions covered in said agreement, Mayor Scheifley asked if the $69,000
proposed expenditures are authorized by Council could they eventually be
paid from the bond funds if the bond issue passes. He specifically re-
ferred to the $35,000 item for engineering services.
The City Manager said that the City Council has that option; further,
that the program officially approved by Council on January 10th makes pro-
vision for reimbursement of Item 5 Expenditures with bond issue funds, al-
so if money is obtained from the State or County, or both, for application
to Item 5 Expenditures, that money could be used and could be counted
against those agencies' total participation when that total participation
has been determined.
Mr. Saunders moved to authorize the proper City officials to execute
a contract with the Arthur V. Strock firm accord~.ng to the copies of the
contract received and to the modifications as outlined by the City Manager.

and Mrs. Martin was opposed. (Copy of said Engineering Agreement is attach-
ed to the official copy of these Ininutes.)
Mayor Scheifley asked ~nat form of motion is desired to authorize these
expenditures.
(3) %~e City Manager said he would like to discuss this last item which has
to do with Item 5 Expenditures, and would then like for the City Attorney
to give his advice'either now or later as to what cOurse should be followed
with respect to these approvals. He said he would like to have Council con-
sider approval of Item 5 Expenditures and authorize the proper City officials
to enter into the proper legal contractual arrangements on three items that
he proceeded to explain in detail, the items being: '
1. Aerial Photography and Mapping - estimated cost $4,000.
2. Baseline SurvEy - estimated cost $10,000.

contracts to accomplish these three goals: Aerial Photography and Mapping
not to exceed $4,000; Baseline Survey not to exceed $10,000; and Off, Shore

of Transportation has told the Authority that with the completion.of 1-95
there would be no more parking on Atlantic Avenue. He further said that
there had been discussion with Mr. Corbett of the Florida East Coast Rail-
way in Mr. Mariott's office, and Mr. Corbett apparently is not interested
in the future of the downto~ area of Delray Beach. Mr. Merri~t said 'the
Authority had met with Council approximately two months ago concerning
this_ item. l~ere was also discussion of the proposed plans for the Rail-
road crossing at S. E~ 10th Street and. 'the angle crossing on Swinton Ave-
nue, also the crossing at ~he transfer station site..
Mr. S~unders said he believed the Council would', give t'he Authority
an affirmative vote on this itera, and asked if putting more discussion off
until the next Council meeting would endanager it. In the meantime, a
workshop meeting with the Authority will be held to discuss cost, alloca-
tion of money and other matters. This woul:~ give the City Manager a chance
to talk with Sou-~hern Sanitation, Inc., and a couple of weeks to attempt
to get some~zbing worked out with the Florida East Coast Railroad.
Mr. MerrJ. tt said ±~hat Mr. Corbett was no% opposed to opening 1st

extensions and improvements to tt~e municipal water and sewer system.
It is our understanding that your consulting engineers have prepared
recommendations to the City indicating a construction project which,
after deducting federal grants and other available funds, will require
issuance of apt~roximately $5,000,000 bf. revenue bonds.
We propose to be retained by the City as independent financial con-
sultant to provide advice witt~ respect to the financing which will
be developed in concurrance with data prepared by and recommendations
of your consulti.ng engineers, bond counsel, public accountants and
the staff of the City .an~t approved by the City Council.
Our services would include but would not be limited to conferences
· ' wi'th the City's officials 'and adv)sers in the development of plans of
;- financing the proposed ['mprovements; preparation of specifications
for bond counsel of financial provisions to be included in the bond
resolution; preparation of official statement and notice of sale for
.-_. apprqval and signature of appropriate city 6fficials and arrangeme.nts
· -~i for advertising the noti'ce in the Bond Buyer; recommendatiQn of date
?'- or dates of sale, ver'ification of bids at the publi~ sale and recom-
3' mendation to the City of the accept'ance or rejecti:on of the bid at the
"/' lowest net interest cost; and arrangements for bond printing, sigh'lng
at the Signature Company in New York and delivery of the bonds against
]~: payment.
-' As compensation fo.r our serv)ces and for out-of-pocket expenses incurred'
we would propose a fee of 3/10 of I% of the first $5,000,000 ~f the
principal amount of bonds issued and sold, plus 1/10 of I% of the prin-
cipal amoun'i- thereof in excess o~ $5,000,000; provided, however, that
the minimum ~ce for each sale shall be not less than $7,500. In
t4r. O. Eldon MarjoJ't .

addition 1-o the above payments, the City may authorize us to incur
reasonable and necessary expenses for such items as printing, adver-
tising.or other purposes in connection with the 'ssuance and sale of
the bonds and will reimburse us for such paymeM's. Fees and reim-
bursable expenses will be payable when, as and if bonds are sold and
delivered. In the event additional services of the financial consul-
~ant are required, such as issuance of bond anticipal-ion notes, a
schedule of fees for such serv'ces can be included by mutual agreement.
Services of the undersigned would be available 'i'o the City at all
reasonable times during the financing. If the above fs generally
in accord'ance wilh your expectations of the services to be performed
we will be pleased to enter into an agreement deiailing the terms

Re: Annexation of 353 Acres in Sections 13 and 24, Township 46 South, Range 42 East
Gentlemen:
This letter is to assure you that if our property is annexed to the City of
Delray Beach and placed in the RM-1A zoning classification, we will not build
to the density allowed of 28 units per acre. We have been working with the
Zoning Director and the Planning Board and at the present time, have submitted
a site plan approval for forty of the 353 acres. We have also submitted a
general land use plan for a residential golf community with a maximum of 2000
units on said tract which is less than six units per acre.
If this property is annexed and the site plan for the first phase approved, we
will not oppose a zoning change to a higher classification to be adopted in the
near future which will permit a maximum of 2000 units on the 353 acres.
We plan to develop a community with a maximum of 2000 residential units over a
period of approximately eight years. The eighteen-hole golf Course, clubhouse
and related facilities, and the first pha~e of 36.6 acres will be constructed
in 1971 and will contain 201 units.
Our petition is still subject to a satisfactory agreement for sanitary sewers
and the relocation of Forest Road which was suggested by the Planning Director.
However, we have been assured by the administration that this is not a problem.
It is our intention ul'ti~ately to have approximately sixty million dollars in-
Vested in this project and we wish to' assure you that we will construct our
units as a low-density development and at the same time, be assured that we will
be able to develop different phases up to a maximum of two thousand residential
units.
Yours very truly,
