contributed to its satisfactory conclusion.
The City Commission appointed members of the Tennis Committee,

Also it is with real pleasure that I report to ~you action
of the Board of County Commissioners in .session july 13,

the spoil bank on the subJe~ property, we have provided
for drainage of the surrounding areas and it is hoped
that the condition of this property is satisfactory to the
City of Delray Beach."
Mr. Talbot moved that the City Manager be directed to survey

mously carried.

.Your cooperation in alerting your city forces and the
public information you gave not only prevented loss of
life and property, but showed your citizens of the need
for a capable, efficient Civil Defense organization.
As County Director I was ready with all County resources

5. 9 City Clerk read an invitation from the City of
Beach t9 attend their "I AM AN AMSRICAN DAY" saturday, Oct~r 3,
1964, at the Boynton Beach Casino and Beach.
5. ~$~y Clerk Worthing read the following letter from .~h.e. Delray
Beach Recreation Club, Inc., signed by C. w. Rice, President:, and
dated September 11th, 1964~
"Mayor Avery upon two Previous occasions has been an
honored guest at winter~ functions of-' the Shuffleboard Club
and he has previously briefly discussed with the writer
some practical possible improvements in the city park
recreational facilities. With your kind indulgence I
woui~ like to support Mayor Avery's ideas and to briefly
mention some additional expressions that Winter residents
have mentioned to the writer. There exists a large volume
of thought that the Delray shuffleboard games area has
c~me archaic. This particular play spot had it's beginnings
about the year 1925 and thusly does not now rate with the
more modern. Our courts are' plagued with drift and a worn
surface not conducive to accurate play. As a result we
have co~laints and players are citing the fact that
neighboring towns of B~ynton, Boca, Deerfield and Pompano,
either have or are in the process of modernizing their
facilities. Many believe the city of Delray Beach should
consider sUch
In no wise does the writer presume to speak for the Bowling
on the Green and' Senior Citizens groups, who have frequently
expressed along with members of the Shuffleboard Club, that
a central recreation' building in the park would ~e highly
desirable for the use of these three organizations. The
bowlers have no present protection~ the Senior Citizens
meet at the Youth Center, which does ~not make for best
harmony; the Shuffleboard membership has ~ompletely out,
grown the modest' little frame building adjacent to the
new pump house.
You may be interested in the following facts and figures.
An excess of 26,000 games will have been played on our courts
in this oalendar year by a total of 670 different participants
of which 600 are Winter visitors, who' spend here in our
community more than a milIion dollars each season. Nine of
our members have p~rchased new homes in the past year. We
belong to the Palm Beach County Inter City League, composed
of Boynton, Briny Breezes, Kokomo, Pine Grove and Cuttle.
This league ~lays both a Winter and Summer schedule and
thusly brings many players and spectators to our courts.
In all of FlOrida there are 202 shuffleboard clubs maintain-
ing 2360 ~ourtS with 45,840' members. The ga~ has become
an important recreational pastime.

"Briefly summihg up the whole'm~tter. It would make a
large group of adu!t"Winter visitors extremely happy if
there were'constructed a suitableand ample facility to
take care of their entertainment and recreational re
quirements.
Should you be inclinedto further pursue this matter,.
the writer.would be glad to pass on many person~l obser-
vations and views which have bean directed my'way."
Mayor Avery said he felt it would be proper at this time to
instruct the City Manager to start instituting some thinking along
the lines of .the constructive suggestions set forth bY Mr. Rice. It
was so moved by Mr. Croft, seconded by Mr. Talbot and unanimously
carried.
$,a. Mr. Barrow asked about-.the regulations concerning hours of
buildingconstruction within the City, and was informed this would
be discussed under item 9.b. tonight.
5.a. Mr. Sa~nders asked the City Manager the status of the blinker
light attN. Swinton Avenue and 22nd Street and a light in the
vicinity°f the Delray Elementary School.
City Manager Holland. informed the council the light on N. E.
22nd street would be installed as soon as the power company could
place a.pole. ~urther, the lightnear the Elementary School had
been ordered and would be installed &s~soon as possible, but that
it takes time for the request to be ~rocessed.
5.a. Mr. Talbot requested that the City Manager present to Council
at the next meeting a detailed report on the survey of sewer con-
nections and Charges, and on the number of applications for sewer
connections'.
6.a. Concerning a proposed exchange of City Real property for
private property, City Clerk Worthing explained as follows~ "For
improvement of the City Nursery grounds by acquisition of lands
adjacent thereto, 'as well as a building thereon and owned by Mr.
Hasten Johnson, but, by virtue of a previous agreement, is removable
therefrom by its owner, authorization is r~quested for entering into
an exchange agreement with Mr. Johnson whereby the City will acquire
Lots 55' and 56, Sundy and Tenbrook Additionl,'together with the
dwelling now locatedon Lot 49, Sundy and Tenbrook. Addition, in
exchange for City owned Lot 2.2, Block 40, Subject to proration of
City and County property taxes as of date of closing and $5,350.00.
Subject to Council providing such authorization, terms of the pro-
posed exchange will be advertised anala resolution submitted to
Council at its next regular meeting to provide, for such authorized
exchange."
Mr. Saunders moved that authorization for said exchange of
properties with Mr. Johnson be gra~d, the motion being seconded by
Mr. Barrow and unanimously carried'~~'
6.b. Concerning termination of alease affecting the City Nursery
property, City Clerk Worthing informed the council as follows:
"The City entered into a lease agreement with Milton J.
Boone,. dated April 12,1955, amended bY modification on
September 15, 1961, pertaining to the use of certain~lots
in Sundy-Tenbrook Subdivision, comprising what is now the
City's Nursery Grounds. The grounds have been vacated, and
acquisition by the City of the improvements thereon, as well
as certain parcels of land contained therein, is now in the
process through an exchange agreement with Mr. Hasten J.

"J~hnson. Therefore, Council authorization is requested,
~$~ecting the proper City officials to execute a '~0~-
~911ation of Lease' affecting the lease agreements d~ed
~pNil 12, 1955 and September 15, 1961, referred to ~e~e-
M~, Croft moved that the proper City officials be a~thorized
to execute the cancellation of said lease with Mr. Boone. The motion
was sec~4ed by Mr. Saunders and carried unanimously.
6.c. Concerning an offer to purchase a small parcel of City owned
land, the City Clerk commented as follows:
!'~Mr, Jesse B. Davis, 408 S. W. 3rd Avenue, desires to
p~=hase the Bast 21 feet of Lots 45, 46 and 47 in S~d~
a~ Tenbrook Addition, which constitutes part of the ~ity
Ngrsery grounds on S. W. 4th ~treet, and otherwise ~djacent
to the rear propertyline of Lots 52, 53 and 54 (the home-
steaded lands of Mr. Davis). The necessar~ deposit of
three-fourths of the assessed valuation of said 21 foot
strip has been made by Mr. Davis.
In compliance with Section 7 of the City Charter, Council
may decline consideration of this offer or direct the City
Clerk to proceed with processing same in accordance with
procedure set forth in .the Charter and following required
legal advertisement thereof, hold a public auction of
said land."
Mr. Croft asked the assessed valuation of said 21 foot strip
of land, to which Mr. worthing answered that it was approximately
$150.00, and that Mr. Davis had deposited $112.50 with the City with
his offer to purchase.
Mr. Saunders moved that the City :Clerk be directed to move
in a legal manner to dispose of said property, the motion being
seconded by Mr. Barrow and unanimously carried.
6.d. An application for extension of water service to Lot 140
Second Addition to High Acres, was presented from Mr. and Mrs.
Clinton w. Sheafer, owners of said property.
The City Clerk reported that the Superintendent of the Water
Department advises of there being a sufficient supply of water in
that area, and approval of the application is recommended; further,
an ordinance covering the annexation of Lot 14, Second Addition to
High Acres, to the City would be presented for Council consideration
later this evening.
The application foe water service to LOt 14, Second Addition
to High Acres, was~unanimouslygranted on motion by Mr. Talbot and
seconded by Mr. Barrow.
6.e. City Clerk WOrthing read the following letter to the Sewer
Adjustment Advisory Board, from R. H. Crego, Plumbing Inspector,
dated August 17th=
"The plumbers in Delray Beach are finding that there are
omissions of laterals to the property line, laterals not
deep. enough that have to be lowered .to meet the required
fa~l from the buildings; also, where:there was tunneling
under sidewalks to install laterals to the property line,
the earth is settling allowing the sidewalks to drop or
break.
The Plumbing Board and plumbers of Delray Beach would..like
to know if they should go ahead and lower ~the laterals,
-5- 9/14/64 96
~5t6
,install laterals not .brought into the-property line,
and do any work in the rights-of-way, or should they
report same to the City in order that the City may take
care of any work in the rights-of-way."
The City Clerkthen read the following letter to City Manager
Holland from D. R. Neff, Project Manager for Russell & Axon, dated
August 21, :1964:
"Res Sewer Laterals
1. Reference is made to memo from R. H. Crego, dated
August 19, 1964, on the above subject.
2. This is an important matter of policy which must
be properly settled at this time.
3. The facts are that the contractor, under the supervision
of the engineer, places the house services at a 'reasonable'
elevation and location, adjacent to the property line. The
joints of pipe come in five foot lengths and they are gen-
erally capped off at a pipe Joint.
4. It is not pract'ical to determine in advance exactly
how the owner will run hie ~onnect~on, how far he will
have to run, and .at what elevation he Will reach his
Property line.
5. As a consequence, it is accepted practice, and really
the only practical solution, for the installing plumber to
make the final adjustment of the house servlcesto his
grades and lines, by adding or removing a section of the
house service. All of the plumbers have done thiswithout
question. They have worked:CloSely with.this office, in
exchanging information andadvice,
6. Sometimes a section of the Vitrified clay pipe house
' services is broken. There is no way of determining who
or what broke it. The odds are, however, that it was
broken by the plumber in probing for the pipe with an
iron rod.
7;In any. event, there are over 3,000 house connections
placed as near as possible to the final location. The
City cannot and should not get into the matter of final
adjustment of each individual house service, as this is
a matter for the owner and the plumber 'to work out. The
City and the contractor havemettheir obligation by
placing the house service at a 'reasonablee location.
8. In cOnnection with the word 'reasonable' above, I
wish to invite your'attention to the fact that in many
cases the location and elevation of the house service
is dictated by storm sewers, water mains, telephone con-
. duits, power cables, and other .underground obstructions.
9, One other point, as a matter of equity, it is custo-
mary for the City to purchase, with sewer funds, and stock
about 100 lengths each of 6 inch and 4 inch V.C.P. for
house services. In this way, when a..serviue has to be
raised a bit or a broken pipe is discovered, the plumber
can pick up a length of pipe at the City yard. The plumb-
ers do not normally stock V.C.P. and in this way the cost
is..equitably shared with the owner..
517
"10. In view of the above facts, it. iS recommended ~hat
f~al adjustment of the. house-service connection ~ the
responsibility of the plumbing, contractor, under
9~ervision of the Plumbing Inspector."
Mr. Talbot asked if the omission of certain laterals had been
taken cafe of and was informed by City Engineer Fleming tha~ such
omissio~s had been taken care of by the contractor under '~h~ direc-
tion of R~ssell & Axon.
~4r, Talbot then moved that the policy as set forth in Russell
& Axon's communication of August 21, 1964, Re: Sewer Laterals, be
made effe~ive. The motion was seconded by Mr. Croft and carried
unanimously-~
6.f. ~Concerning relocation of the surfboarding area off the Munici-
pal Beach, City Clerk Worthing read the following memorandum from the
Safety Engineer to the City Manager, dated September 10, 1964:
"By using both the number one lifeguard stands (No. 1
North and No. 1 South) as the boundaries of the surfing
area, .we would have two structures which could be readily
seen from the water. These stands would represent guides
to the surfers, thereby enabling them to orientate them-
selves.
This feature would also create a two-guard control of the
surfers - one to the north and one to the south.
While the pavilion would not be located exactly in the
center-of this area, the difference would be minimal and
people watching the surfers from the pavilion would be able
to see the entire area.
Two signs would be required, both as a notice to surfers
and bathers. These signs should bear the information, as
well as the ordinance involved, constituting public notice.
They would be substantially constructed, firmly, embedded
in the sand, and located at eitherboundary of the surfing
area.
Two life lines would have to be relocated. These lines are
anchored to the bottom and the anchors would have to be
lifted or buoyed. If buoyed (a 'surface float attached),
this would possibly create a hazard to surfers and lia-
bility on the part of the City.
The installation of the area, as an area for surfers,
would not c=eate any hardship to the Beach Service as
the cabanas usually are not erected within this section
of the beach.
Upon investigation and inquiry, the action of the waves
at this location seems .the most advantageous for surfing.
If the area in front (east) of the Seacrest Hotel would
pose a possibility of tourists' apprehension from the
surfers, lifeguard stand No. l North could be relocated
south to a line projected easterly along the north right-
of-way line of East Atlantic Avenue. This would' then
make an area for surfers, of 317 feet along the beach to
thesouth.
The costs involved in this recommendation are: 2 signs
at approximately $20. to $25. per sign, made up of red
lettering on white background.
-7- 9-14-64

"The relocation of one life line would entail raising the
anchor in the ocean. ~is could possibly he accomplished
byattaChing a cable and pulling from the beach with one
of our tractors. To replace the anchor would require
floating the anchor out on a boat or barge and placing
said anchor on thebottom. The use of a floating barge,
etc. would probably cost in the vicinity of $25. per hour.
I would estimat· the time involved would be 4 hours."
During discussion, a survey report from the Police Department
concerning warnings issued for surfboard violations was mentioned.
Mr. Talbot moved that this item be tabled until the next
Council meeting, the motion being seconded by Mr. Barrow.
During discussion, the City Manager commented on the survey
report he had asked the Police Department to make, and it was reported
that most of the surfboarders were cooperative.
Upon call of roll to table this item, the motion carried unani-
mously.
6.g. Concerning Council request for a feasibility and cost study to
straighten'out the dog-leg on N. E. 3rd Avenue at 14th street, City
Manager Holland informed the COuncil this job could be done for a cost
of approximately $50.00 for materials, and the labor would be done by
the present City crews.
Mayor Avery asked the City Manager to explain what he planned
to do at that location, and City Manager Holland said he planned to
use about 34 feet of ground east of the present N. E. 3rd Avenue paved
strip south of 14th Street, which would allow two or three cars to pull
up side by side if they wanted to turn East on 14th Street. The City
manager explained there was sufficient rock from the tennis court area
to fill this area and the only'outlay of money would be for: asphalt;
further,.that he would recommend said improvement bemade.
Mr. Saunders moved that the'City Manager be instructed to pro-
ceed with plans, as outlined, for the improvement of N. E. 3rd Avenue
at 14th Street, the motion being'seconded by Mr. Croft and unanimously
carried.
6.h. Concerning parcels of land in violation of City nuisance laws,
.City Clerk Worthing reported to Council'as follows~
"In compliance with chapter 15 of:~the City's Code of .:
Ordinances, the,City Manager submits, sur.veY report dis-. :'
closing the following.:identified properties as'being in'
violation of Section 15:
w125' of N100' of Ocean Beach Lot $2 Lucie M. Robbins
Violation 15-3
Lot-9, Block 11, Seagate-Section "A" O. Clifford Grimshaw
Violation 15-3'& 15-4
Council may, should it so deslre~ seek further information
concerning such alleged nuisances from the ~ire Chief, whose
department provided the survey, and if Council determines
such violations exist, the City Clerk should be directed
to comply with the prescribed procedure, as set forth in
Chapter 15 of the Code of Ordinances, to assure abatement
of such nuisances."
It was so moved by Mr. Talbot, seconded by Mr. Barrow and
unanimously carried.
6.i. Concerning the West Side Recreation~Advisory Board, City Clerk
Worthing informed the Council that the following members had been
appointed on July 8, 1963, for a one year term:
-8- 9/14/64
519
Board Membership AA ApDointed July 8~ 1963
Mrs. Celestine Cartwright
Mrs. Gertrude Green
Otto Mitchell
Theron Nubin'
Charles Oxidine
Mrs. H; Ruth'Pompey
A. W. Risker
David Smith
Rev~ J. ,W. H. Thomas
Mr. Croft moved that these'~same members be reappointed as
members of said West Side Recreation Advisory Board for a period of
one yea~ ~om July 8, 1964. The motion was secOnded by Mr, Barrow
and carri~ unanimously,
Mayor Avery asked that letters of appointment be sent to each
of these Advisory Board members, also thanking them for their service
during this first year on said board.
7.a. Concerning a request-from' Burnup & Sims, Inc., for a -franchise
relative rca CommunityAntenna Televis'ion~ cable installation, City
Clerk Worthing read the following Charter provision:
"The City Council may, by ordinance, grant permission
to any individual, firm or corporation, to construct,
operate and maintain any public utility, in, upon, or
over the streets and public spaces of the city; BUT
no such grant shall be effective, without REFERENDUM.
to the people at an Election to be called and held in
accordance with the provisions of the Charter for the
holding of bond elections."
City Clerk worthing said that such franchise grant could then
be made only after such franchise had been approved by a majority of
votes cast at an election in which a majority of the freeholders who
are qualified electors had participated.
Mr. Thomas R. Pledger. of Burnup and Sims, Inc., West Palm
Beach, requested the Council to consider giving their Company a 30
year franchise to construct and operate a Community Antenna Tele-
vision System, and presented the City Manager with a copy of their
proposal.
During discussion, Mr. Pledger said the monthly service charge
and installation charge to the customers would have to be worked out
by their Company and the City, but it was estimated the service
charge would be approximately $5.00 per month and the installation
charge approximately $19.50. It was also stated that the .expense of
the City in placing this item before the freeholders would be paid by
the Company making the request. It was pointed out by the City
Attorney that a franchise granted by the City could not be an ex-
clusive franchiSe, and he' felt there was quite a bit of work to be
done on this proposal before it was presented to the freeholders on
a ballot. Mr. Pledger informed the Council that their Company
Attorney would work with the City Administration and City Attorney
in working out the details of this item before it was presented on a
ballot. Mr. Pledger also informed the Council that Fort Pierce, Vero
Beach, Naples, Perry, Live Oak, Sarasota, Key west and Tallahassee
had this type of antenna television system. Mr. Barrow said Delray
Beach was located in one. of the best television areas and he did not
feel that such a service had. much to offer Delray Beach. Mr. Pledger
said this installation would be good planning for the future. Mayor
Avery suggested this item be r~ferred to the .Planning Board for their
study and recommendation.
-9- 9/14/64

Following .lengthy discussion~~- Mr. Croft moved that this item
be referred to the City Manager for further investigation and study
and returned to Cotulcil at a later date, the motion being seconded
by Mr. Talbot and unanimously carried.

report was presented from the Pension Committee, dated September 9th,
1964:
"Re: Proposed Pension Program - Award Recommendation
Your Pension Committee would like to take this oppor-
tunity to formally advise you that. since the September
1st meeting held by you to discuss and review the wyatt
Company's analysis 'of bid proposals relative to method
of funding of the City employees' proposed ·pension ·pro-
gram, our committee has met and unanimously recommends
aocel~ting the wyatt Company's recommendation, that being
'that the City of Delray Beach fund the retirement plan
for its employees on a self-administered, fully trusteed
basis, utilizing the service of a bank as corporate trus-'
tee. ' '
We feel that funding this program through a bank trustee
would provide the City the greatest flexibility and po-

"tential rate of return on om: fund, Additionally0 we
anticipate the City administration providing the maximum
administrative services connected with this program, there-
by ~educing the cost to the City.
Purther, An view of the fact that only one local banking
institution submitted a proposal, we recommend the award
to the First National Bank of Delray Beach.
We wish to thank all of the bidders for their fine pro-
posals and interest in our program."
Mr, Saunders'moved to accept the recommendation of the Pension
Committee and that the City Administration and City Attorney proceed
to draw up thelegislation and agreements, robe presented to Council
at the next meeting. The motion wasseconded by Mr. Talbot and
carried unanimously.
City Attorney Adams said there may. not be enough time for the
drafting of all necessary instruments, an~ there may need to be some
policy decision, but he would endeavor tohavethe rough draft pre-
pared for consideration at the next Council meeting.
9.b. Concerning regulations pertaining!to limiting construction
hours within the city, Mayor Avery said there had been numerous, com-
plaints from year-around residents who felt they should be shown the
same consideration as the winter visitors,.in having construction
hours limited from 8~00 A. M. to-5:00 P,M., Monday through Saturday
for the entire year.
Building official Ralph Hughson was asked to read Section
9-6.5of the Code of Ordinances, which is as follows:
"Construction work causing vibrations, noise,etc. - Limited
to specified days and hours.
No construction orbuilding of any type causing vibrations,
noises, shaking or Jarring to be emitted therefrom shall
be Carried on orperformed within the City of'Delray Beach,
FloridaexcePt between the hours from eight o'.clock a.m.
to five o'clock p.m. on Monday through Saturday of each
week during theperiod from December I of each year to April
30 of the following year."
It was pointed out there had been an Ordinance considered and
placed on first reading November 12, 1962, which would place the
same hours of construction in effect forths entire year, but the
ordinance had been tabled and later, the action on said ordinance
had been rescinded.
Following lengthy discussion, Mr. Saunders moved that Ordi-
nance No. G-246 be amended to regulate the hours of construction
during the entire year. The motion was seconded by Mr. Barrow.
Mr. Talbot suggested an ordinance provision whereby on some
special occasion or an isolated location, permissionmay be given
for longer hours of constrUCtion.
During discussion, itwas pointed out that any emergency work
was covered in OrdinanCe No, G-246, which ordinance was passed and
adopted on February 2$th, 1957.
Upon call of roll on the motion to amend Ordinance No. G-246,
the motion carried unanimously.
10.x. City Attorney Adamscommented as follows~ "At a-recent meet-
ing, we heard from Beery & Brown, reporting on Russell & Axon's
insurance in their professional liability. The policy, as you will
recall, expires September. 24th and although Mr. Brown doesn't have
the final figures called for, we thought At was advisable to have it
-12- 9/14/64

"come to this meeting and at least provide for some period to cover
the lapsed period."
Mr. Harvey Brown of Beery and Brown Agency reminded~the
Council'they had deferred a decision on said insurance poli~ that
expires on September 24th pendingthe receipt of further !DfQrmation
and quotations on lesser amounts of insurance. Mr. Brown ~$d he
had immediately requested said quotations and had been advised by the
general agency in Atlanta that it would be necessary for them to
have a completed application before they could determine ~he rates,
both on the lesser amounts of insurance and the presently ~n~ured
amount. Further, that Finance Director Weber had received~Said
insurance application for transmittal to Russell & Axon, and at this
time, Russell & Axon had not returned same to the City.
Finance Director Weber informed the Council that he ~had talked
with Mr. Osteen of Russell & Axon last Thursday and he was forwarding
the application to their St. Louis office for it to be completed and
returned to the City.
Mr. Barrow asked what the City couid do to be protected until
the information was received. Mr. Brown said that interim ~overage
could be requested from the Insurance Company, although this type of
coverage is not generally extended on a binder. Further, it ~uld
only take a day to get a q~otation from the insurance company, as
that could be obtained' by telephone after the application had been
received from Russell & Axon. 'During discussion, it was agreed that
a special Council meeting would be called before the next regular
meeting to take action on this insurance matter.
10.x. The City Manager reminded Council of their permission to
advertise for a 3/4 ton pick-up t~.uck with ut£1itybody and lift

memorandum~
"Adams Chevrolet Co. $2~799.00 30

10.x. City Clerk Worthing read the following letter from Dorothea
E. Galvin, dated September 14th, 1964:
"DUe to extenuating personal circumstances it Will be
impossible for me'to accept the appointment as a member
of the Sewer AdjuStment Advisory Board for a term of
three years.
I thank you very much for the honor and I am sorry that
I cannot accept it."
Miss ~alvin~s resignation was unanimously accepted, with re-
gret, onmotion by Mr. Saundere and seconded by Mr. Talbot.
Mayor Avery said the Sewer Adjustment AdViSory Board had been
appointed with a representative .from each section of town, and Sug-
gested~that Mr. Ward Robinson be appointed as a member of said Board
to replace Miss Galvin.
-13- 9/14/64
Mr. Talbot moved t~g Mr. Ward Robinson be appointed as a
member of the Sewer AdJus~ment Advisory Board, subject to his ac-
ceptance~ as a replacement for Miss ~alvin, to act as temporary
Chairman unti~ a Chairman is selected by the Board. The motion was
seconded by M~. Saunders and carried unanimously.
10~x. Mr. O. W. Woodard, Jr., commented _as follows: "~entlemen, in
order that we can proceed with repairing our Community Center build-
ing next door, we have .been attempting since June, through diplomatic
correspondence, to obtain a twenty year bonded roof, as called for in
the specifications for COnstruction of that building. The City At-
torney and I have corresponded with all of the parties interested in
this building and it has reached the stage now where it is our opinion
that about the only action we can take is to send them a registered
letter, indicating that if they do not provide us with the twenty
year bonded roof as called for in the specifications, we will have to
take lega! action to obtain that. If that is your desire, ! would
like to put that in your hands now to see what your thinking is on
the matter."
Mr. Talbot moved that the recommendation of the City Adminis-
tration be approved, th~ motion being seconded by Mr. Saunders.
Mr. Barrow asked the opinion of the Architect in this matter,
and Mr. Woodard said the Architect was of the opinion that the City
did receive the twenty year bonded roof.
During discussion, .Mr. Woodard informed the Counci~ that the
Building Department had never accepted some phases of the building.
Mr. Woodard said he would ascertain if the Architect did approve the
building, and he would check back in the records and ascertain who
approved the final payment to the contractor and on what basis.
Ltpon call of =oll that the recommendation of the City Adminis-
tration be approved, the motion carried unanimously.
10.x. City Manager Holland informed the Council they had requested
him to obtain some cost figures and then read the following letter
from Mr. Kenneth Jacobson, dated September 14, 1964=
"COnfirming recent conversations withMr? Holland and
Mr. Woodard, this office proposes to do the following
work relative to the Tennis Courts and Buildingl
A. All the necessary working drawings, specifications,
detailS and supervision as de~cr~bed, in Palm Beach
Chapter A.I.A. pamphlet - 1961, - - for the Building -
for a fee of 6% of coostruction cost.
B. Coordinating Tennis court construction and super-
vising contracts of the construction of tennis courts
and sprinkler systems, -
for a fee of $300.00."
Mr. Talbot asked for an explanation of item B. of the letter.
City Manager Holland answered as follows: "We have an active
committee of four people who have helped us with the blueprints,
through our Engineering Department, to further this and get it into
operation - Mr. Jacobson, Mr. Speicher, Dr. Father and Dr. Shoaf.
They have taken Mr. Jacobson out of their four to act as a liaison
and more or less supervise, to see that this is done according to
Feise~s specifications that we drew up. The sprinkler system will be
installed under Feise*s supervision, but someone with the Tennis
Committee who has the knowledge.:will have to tell Mr. Womack where
~the sprinklers are to be placedi"
During discussion, Mayor Avery commented as follows: "Mr.
Jacobsonhas been on the Tennis Committee. He has given freely of
-14- 9/14/64
525 -
"hisadvice and helpon many occasions on things concerning
the.tennis courts. He knows more about the tennis situation
than any architect in town and it is agreed by the Tennis
~mmittee that he would,be anatural because ofh!'s know-
l~dge of our tennis situation. It is vital that the tennis
i~stallation be a most attractive place because i~ is a
selling point for this town. The 6%, as quoted, is in
line with any other architect in town.."
DuNing discussion, it was pointed out that there shQ~ld be a
ceiling0f approximately $15,000.00 placed on the cost of ;t~e new
tennisbuilding, and that money,was available for same.
. Pollowinglengthy discussion, Mr'. Barrow~moved to go ahead
with the plans to the extent'of $15,000.00, whichwould i~lude 6%
architect's fee, and if the bids exceed that, the archite~t will
bring the cost down within the $15,000.00 limit or it wili.not be
accepted and nothing will be-paid, and that, Mr. Jacobson be selected
as the architect; further, that this does~not coyer'item B, of the
proposai from Mr. Jacobson. The motion was seconded by MN~ Croft.
Mayor Avery commented as follows: "It has been moved and
seconded that Mr. Jacobson be the architect, at 6% with a limit of
$15,000.00 on.the building, including the 6% architect's fee, that
to be the limit and if it is not within that, it will be brought
within that, or no fee paid - Item A. in the proposal, and turning
down item B. in the proposal."
City Attorney Adams said he would prepare a contract and talk
it over with Mr. Jacobson, and at the next meeting the contract could
be ratified.
upon~'call, of roll, the motion carried unanimously.
Mr. Talbot moved that the City Manager be instructed to make
such arrangements with Mr. Feise 'as are necessary to guarantee that
he will be responsible for the installation of the sprinkling system
for the tennis courts.
City Manager Holland informed the Council that- the contra=t to
Mr. Feise for the tennis courts and the contract to Mr. Womack for
the sprinkling system had already been awarded, but he would see that
the system was installed according to specifications.
Mayor Avery said the City Manager should be directed to coor-
dinate the sprinkler system installation himself and it would be
taken care of satisfactorily. The motion was seconded by Mr. Barrow.
Mayor Avery explained: "It has been moved and seconded that
the City Manager be directed to coordinate the installation of the
sprinkler system, and supervision of the installation of the tennis
courts."
Upon call of ro11, the motion carried unanimously.
10.x. City Manager Holland presented the following memorandum from
Finance Director Weber: "Due to the appropriation for the workmen's
Compensation Insurance and the Liability Insurance being overdrawn,
it is necessary to ask the City CounCil for a transfer of funds from
the Contingency Account to the Insurance Account, as follows:
General Liability InsuranCe 910 852 452 $1,351.00
Workmen's Compensation Insurance
910 852 454 $4,617.00"
Finance.Director Weber explained that was a non-departmental
cost, and the account was overdrawn, as was made known to Council
last December, as the bids on that insurance coverage amounted to
more money than had been budgeted for same.
Mr. Croft moved that the money be transferred, as recommended
by the Director of Finance, the motion being seconded by. Mr.-Barrow
and unanimously carried.
-15- 9/i4/64
