also, that the City of Delray Beach sponsor the concert to be held on
Friday, April 7, 1972, 7:00 P.M., at the City Park, with $200.00 to
come from the General Fund Contingency Account for such sponsorship.

sanitary sewer i -lities in Tropic Palms Subdivision. ~e three
parties to the a ~ ~ament were First Federal Savings and Loan
Association of ~i~i, Dr. Frank Cusumano and the City of Delray
Beach. The agreement w~s executed by both First Federal and the
City after Council approval, but it had not been executed by Dr.
Frank Cusumano and he did not deposit the funds with the City that
the agreement called for as his share of the construction cost of the
sanitary sewer facilities.
The City Manager recommended that Council approve a new
agreement containing the same terms and provisions for construction
of the sewer facilities as those contained in the agreement prev-
iously approved, with the exception that the names Edward Bogen and
Frank Todino be substituted for the name of Dr. Frank Cusumano. A
general discussion followed, with the City Manager naming the streets
and locations involved in this matter. Mr. Saunders made the motion,
seconded by Mrs. Martin, and unanimously carried, to approve the new
agreement entered into between First Federal Savings and Loan Assoc-
iation of Miami, the City of Delray Beach, Edward Bogen and Frank
Todino for the construction of sanitary sewer facilities in Tropic
Palms Subdivision. (Copy of this Agreement is attached to the
official copy of these minutes.)
6.b. The City Manager informed Council that the City presently
owns an American LaFrance 1928 model fire truck that is no longer
needed or used, and recommended that Council authorize the advertis-
ing of this piece of equipment for sale. Mrs. Martin moved that
City Council authorize the advertising for sale of the surplus
American LaFrance 1928 model fire truck, seconded by Mr. Saunders
and unanimously carried.
6.c. The City Manager presented a survey of lands in violation
of the City's nuisance laws. Mr. Youngblood moved that the City
Clerk be directed to comply with Chapter 15 of the City's Code of
Ordinances, as applicable to this survey, the motion being seconded
by Mr. Weekes and unanimously passed.
6.d. The City Manager presented the following bids that were
received for fencing in connection with the Tennis Court project:
Bidder Bid
Frank English $ 5,045.00
Clark A. Taylor & Son $11,500.00
He recommended that Council award the fence contract to the low
bidder, Frank English, in the amount of $5,045.00. A general dis-
cussion followed; and, upon motion made by Mr. Saunders, seconded by
Mr. Youngblood, and unanimously carried, it was moved to award the
tennis court fence contract to the low bidder, Frank English, in the
amount of $5,045.00.
Mayor Scheifley reported that he had recently attended a
meeting of the Lawn Bowling group that is going to compete in a
tournament next week at St. Petersburg. Members of the group ex-
pressed their appreciation of the City of Delray Beach to the Mayor
and were very grateful for such fine facilities made available to

7.a. The City Manager reported that a letter had been received
from Mr. Robert F. McSweeney requesting that the City provide water
service to Del-Raton Mobil Headquarters, located at 3008 South Federal
Highway, outside the City limits. Mr. McSweeney introduced himself
and then went into further details regarding the requested water
service for a travel trailer park.
During the general discussion that followed, it was
pointed out that if water is furnished, the property should be
annexed to the City.
Mayor Scheifley said that this would bring up a broader
problem that has to be considered and indicated that the City needs
some kind of chang'e in ordinances in order to annex trailer parks
on a conditional basis until they are phased out.
The City Manager said that in the interests of expediting
the request that was before Council at that time, and, realizing that
Council may not want to annex the property without a recommendation
from the Planning and Zoning Board, he suggested that the request for
water be referred to a workshop, and the matter of annexation and
ordinance change be referred to the Planning and Zoning Board.
In answer to a question by Mayor Scheifley, Mr. McSweeney
said that they would be happy to annex said property to the City,
and it was suggested that he make application the next day for
annexation of that property.
Upon motion by Mr. Saunders, seconded by Mr. Weekes, and
unanimously carried, it was moved to refer the Del-Raton Mobil
Headquarters' water service request to an early workshop.
Mr. Youngblood then moved to refer this item of annexation
to the Planning and Zoning Board for a specific recommendation, and
also that said Board make a general study regarding trailer parks and
mobile home parks being annexed to the City, with recommendations to
Council concerning same. The motion was seconded by Mr. Saunders and
unanimously carried.

During discussion it. was pointed out that this alley dead-
ended at the north end instead of opening into an improved street.
Mr. Weekes asked if it would be feasible to pave this alley through
to another street, and, if so, how far would it have to be extended.
The City Manager said that would have to be investigated
to determine if it would be feasible, and, if there are private
properties adjacent to it that would be involved, then a determination
could be made by submitting a petition to those parties to determine
whether or not they wanted to have it paved and be assessed for same.
He said that could be checked out and the feasibility determined.

condemnation proceedings that would lead to the opening of the
railroad crossing at this location. Mr. Mariott reported on the
present status of the situation, also the angle crossing at

ceedings. He suggested that it be referred to the Planning and
Zoning Board for approval of its report and additional supplement.

establish the need for the condemnation proceedings. Reports from
the Downtown Development Authority and the Planning and Zoning
Board are essential before any action is taken by the Council. A
general discussion followed. Mayor Scheifley referred this matter
