sibly getting a Resolution asking for State or Federal aid.

garding application for Taxi Licenses by the Yellow Cab Company, at
which time there was discussion of the current taxi service being
proved and a December 1, 1970 date set for Council to investigate and

week to reactivate the Junk Car Removal Program, and it was set up to
begin the first of this week. Further, that he would check out other
junk in that area mentioned by Mr. YoUngblood.

ed Ordinance concerning control of 'taXis, and said that'theClty
Attorney will obtain copies of similar ordinances from the surrounding
~owns for Council consideration.
5. MayOr saunders announced that this 'isthe last officiai COuncil
meeting for Mr. R. D. Worthing and read RESOLUTION NO~ 36-70 COMMEND-
ING RETIRING CITY CLERK R. D. WoRTHiNG which ResolUtion was unanimous-
ly passed and adopted On this first and final'reading.
(Copy of ResOlution No. 36-70 is attachedto the official copy of
-these minutes.) See page ~8-A.
6.a. Concerning a survey of lands in violation of the City's nuisance
laws, presented by the City Manager, Mr. Youngblood moved that the
City Clerk be instructed.to proceed with the enforcement of Chapter 15
of the City's Code of Ordinances, the motion being seconded bY Mr.
Pitts and unanimously carried. (Copy of the Nuisance Survey is.at-
tached to the official copy of these minutes.) See page 98-B.
6.b, Concerning a request of Radio Station WDBF for permit to erect a
sign on its grounds on the southeast corner of West Atlantic Avenue and
Homewood Boulevard, City ManagerMariott informed Council that the
proposed sign is a two-faced sign of triangular design and would be
approximately 8 feet high and 32 feet in length. He referred to the
definitions of signs and billboards in Chapter 3, Sec. 3-1 (a), (b)
and (c) of the Code of Ordinances, which types of signs are Banner
signs, Outdoor advertising displaysigns and Commercial advertising
signs, and are prohibited except by special permit of the City Council.
He said this proposed sign would be under the ~ategory of the Outdoor
Advertising Display Sign; further, that the plans for sign, including
site plan, have been reviewed by the Building Inspection Department
and it has been determined that the sign construction and location
meet all City.Ordinance requirements. The City Manager further stated
that he is not in favor of permitting large signs of this type to be
located on vacant premises in the City, in general, advertising busi-
nesses elsewhere, but due to the peculiarity of this particular situa-
tion in that it would be on the premises of the Radio Station and
built in.a location where a building itself could be built, he felt
the best interest of the City would not be hurt by Council approval of
said installation, and this should not set a precedent concerning
future applications for similar signs.
Following general discussion, Mr. Pitts moved to approve the sign,
the motion was seconded by Mr. Youngblood and carried unanimously.
6.c. Regarding additional repairs to the revetment wall, the City
Manager informed Council it is recommended that the Contract with the
Murphy Construction Company be authorized, and that today the estimated
costs to the City for extending the Contract to reconstruct the approx-
imately 114 feet has been updated, and the total estimated cost is
$21,000, $18,500 of which will be to the Murphy Construction Company,
the other $2,500 cost to be incurred by the City for pouring of con-
crete blocks that need to be replaced.
The City Manager said the two basic reasons for the recommendation
that said work be done are for appearance sake, and to further attempt
to protect the existing revetment.
Following a question regarding funds to cover the cost of said
revetment wall reconstruction, Finance Director Weber informed Council
this would be a continuation of the other contract with funds coming
from the Disaster Trust Fund.
It was pointed out that Murphy Construction Company had agreed to
provide such repairs, in their letter dated December 16, 1969, and at
the original unit prices reflected therein; further, such agreement
was also set forth in Murphy Construction Company's letter of March
10, 1969, and that the terms and conditions for such repairs expires
on June 1, 1970.
Mr. Youngblood moved that this request for authorization for ad-
ditional repairs to the revetment wall be granted. The motion was
seconded by Mr. Scheifley.
Following general discussion, and upon call of roll, Mrs. Martin,
Mr. Scheifley, Mr. Youngblood and Mayor Saunders voted in favor of the
motion, and Mr. Pitts was opposed.
6.d. City Manager Mariott said it is recommended that Council provide
for the future appointment of a Housing Authority, the establishment
of a Housing Authority and the bringing into existence in Delray Beach
of Public Housing in order that the City of Delray Beach may not permit
an undue delay in establishing provision for public housing for those
persons who probably will be displaced as a result of construction of
-3- May 25, 1970
1-95 and for.other people in need of low-rent public housing in the
City.
Mr. Scheifley moved that th~ Administration be instructed to
dertake all the mechanical steps in the procedure neceSsarY Which will
lead up to a final decision by Council to establish a Delray Beach
Housing Authority. The motion was seconded by Mr. Pitts and carried
unanimously.
6.e. A proposed Contract for the construction and operation of an off-
shore breakwater composed of a linc'of "ERO JACKS" between the City of
Delray Beach and Caribe Scientific, Inc. Was presented to Council and
the City Manager reported that the "EROJACKS" would be installed with-
out cost to the City except for the cost of unloading of the JACKS up-
on delivery to the Beach, that ~stimated cost being from $250.00 to
$300.00. The City Manager said he didn't think ~he City had anything
to loose and maybe something to be gained and he thought it should be
tried.
Mr..Pitts moved to approve the installation of the "ERO JACKS" as
specified in said Contract. The motion was seconded by Mr. Youngblood
following assurance from the City Attorney that he approved of the
Contract. The motion carried unanimously. (CoPy of said Contract is
attached to the official copy of these minutes.)~x/p~ ~N-A-I.-
7.a. A request from the St. John's Primitive Baptist Church for Per-
missive Use to allow construction of a Church and associated buildings

Investment & Title Guaranty Company, (Judge Banzai F. A. Currie,
President), donated to the City of Delray Beach that. tract of land
known as CUP~IE Co~4MON, later identified as the Little League Baseball
Field, which land lies between S. E. 7th and 8th'Streets, adjacent to
the easterly right-of-way line of the F. E. C. Railway, and bound on
the east by S. E. 2nd AVenue, and presented the following letter from
the American Legion Milton-Myers Post No. 65, dated May 16, 1970,
signed by Allan A. Wells, Adjutant:
"Milton-Myers Post. 65, American Legion in conjunc-
tion with a number of local businessmen in 1951 started
the sponsorship of Little League Baseball in Delray Beach.
Construction was later started on the present Little
League Field at a site known ~as CURRIE COMMON on South-
east 7th Street.
With the cooperation of the City of Delray Beach, the
Palm Beach County Commissioners and many local businesses
we have been able to~build and~maintain an ex=~llent..field,
building and associated apparatus.
This baseball park is'on land deeded by the Currie
Investment Co. on 1954 to .the City of Delray Beach subject
to a 99-year lease held by Milton-Myers Post No. 65.
In view of the original generous donation to the City
of Delray Beach by the Currie Investment Co., members of
this post voted to request the City of Detray Beach to
designate this park as CURRIE PARK or CURRIE COMMON and
erect thereon an appropriate plaque commemorating the gift."
Mayor Saunders suggested approval of dedication of said property
to the Curries and determine from the American Legion if they have a
preference as to it being a PARK or COMMON.
Mr. Scheifley moved that the request for a Plaque for said par-
ticular area be approved, as either CURRIE PARK or CURRtE COMMON, de-
pending upon the choice of Milton-Myers Post No. 65, and that the City

A Public Hearing havingbeen legally'advertised in compliance
with the laws of the State of Florida and the Charter of the City of
Delray Beach was held, at which time Mr. Wm. H. Murtha, 1202 N. E. 9th
Avenue, objected to said annexation on the grounds that he did not
think the annexation of N. E. 9th Avenue by Ordinance adopted on April
27th, 1970, is legal, and does not make that land contiguous to the
City limits of Detray Beach.
City Attorney Fellows reported that the City has a right,~y
Charter, granted by the State Legislature, to annex street rights-of-
way, and City Manager Mariott reported that N. E. 9th Avenue right-
or-way is needed in the City in which to locate sanitary sewer collec-
tion facilities to serve properties within the City in that area.
Council was informed that the owner of Lot 20, First Addition to
Kenmont, and other property owners in that area requested annexation

The City Clerk reported that the Planning and Zoning Board, at
its regular meeting held on May 19th, unanimously recommends annex-
ation of this tract of land under R-1AA Classification rather than
the RM-1 classification requested by the petitioner; further, said
Board reported it feels that any other zoning classification should be
delayed until Barr, Dunlop & Associates has completed their stUdy and
recommendations of the Westward Expansion Area.
Mr. Robert Kinkead, representing the property owner, Mr. Eugene
Cabrini, informed Council this property had been presented for annex-
ation with a request for RM-1 zoning classification with the thought
in mind that the Planning and Zoning Board and Council had planned to
accept multiple type residential zoning on a highway such as Atlantic
A~enue. He said that construction of a duplex is already underway on
said land and it is the intention of the owner to build two more du-
plexeso Further, that two tracts of land lying within the City in that
immediate area are presently zoned RM-1 and RM-2 (Multiple Family
Dwelling Districts), and if Council doesn't see fit to approve annex-
ation of said property in the RM-1 zoning classification he would like
to withdraw the petition for annexation at this time and possibly pre-
sent it again at some later date.
During general discussion concerning zoning, annexation, extension
of sanitary sewer facilities to lands lying within the City in that
general area, etc., Mr. Kinkead said if Council tabled this item for
a short period of time he would come to a workshop meeting and discuss
plans the property owner has for other lands he owns in that area.
Following a question by Mr. Scheifley, City Manager Mariott rec-
ommended that said item be tabled which would gain some time, and pos-
sibly in two or three months more would be known in regard to the ul-
timate recommendation of the Planning Consultants.
A Public Hearing having been legally advertised in compliance
with the laws of the State of Florida and the Charter of the City of
