Ward, Henry Lilienthal, Roy Cowart, Henry Pope and Kathleen Kirton. Mayor Koch called the meeting to order. Mr. Iglehart moved that the minutes of the meeting held on May 10, 1968 be approved as written and the reading of these minutes be waived. Mr. Hoyle seconded the motion. Motion passed. It was noted that there was no meeting held in June due to the lack of a quorum of commissioners. Mr. Iglehart moved that the Financial Reports for May and June be approved as written and all expenses included in the reports be approved. Mr. Hoyle seconded the motion. Motion passed. A letter from the Coastal Volunteer Fire Department expressing appreciation for the Town's cooperation and extension of the fire contract was read. A letter from the State Comptroller granting the extension of time for filing the Town Tax Roll was read. Police reports for May and June were read. Mayor Koch reported on Police meetings of area departments and directed Chief Cowart to attend or have a member of the department attend these meetings. The Town Clerk reported that a new driver has been hired for the trash truck and is to start on July 15. Also arrangements were made for additional help to remove the heavy accumulation of trash in the Town. The Town Clerk asked for permission to look for a replacement for the trash helper, Paul Bradwell, who is 66 years old and has poor vision. The Commission approved the request and agreed that Brad - well would be given one month's pay in recognition of his lengthy service to the Town at such time as a replacement is obtained. With regard to drainage in the area of Old School Road and Polo Drive it was pointed out that response has been slow from the property owners involved. The Commissioners felt that they had done all they could at this time and it remained up to the prop- erty owners as to what they desired to do concerning the drainage. Resolution No. 3 -68, electing not to be included in the program of the Community Action Agency, was read. Mr. Iglehart moved that this Resolution be passed and adopted, approving verbal action of June 14, 1968. Mr. Hoyle seconded the motion. Motion passed.

Mr. Iglehart seconded the motion. Motion passed. Commission Meeting, July 12, 1968 Page 2 Letters regarding mutual aid agreements for Police Departments in the County were read. No action was taken as it was agreed that the departments in this area were already cooperative with each other. Further, the Town Attorney pointed out the possibility of liability on the part of the Town in case of injury to an officer under such an agreement. The proposed budget for 1968 -69 was briefly discussed. Mayor Koch stated that $1000.00 should be included in the budget to start a Town Library. Mr. Iglehart stated that he was definitely opposed to any increase in the millage rate. The Town Clerk was instructed to obtain prices on leasing Police cars and a budget session was scheduled for July 16, 1968 at 9:00 a.m. The Par Three Golf Course requested a water connection across from the Town Hall to service their irrigation control system. Mr. Iglehart moved that a meter be.approved on a temporary basis sub- ject to approval of the Gulf Stream Golf Club. Mr. Hoyle seconded the motion. Motion passed. Since there will not be a quorum of Commissioners there will be no Commission meeting in August. The next Commission Meeting will be on September 13, 1968. There being no further business to come before the Commission, the meeting was adjourned.

SEYMOUR TELEPHONE: 732.2595 On behalf of the Coastal Volunteers, I wish to thank you for your vote of confidence by continuing the fire contract again this year. Last year we were indeed fortunate in having only two small grass fires and one car fire with very little loss_ My inspection of all the fire hydrants found only one hydrant in need of repair and one obstruction interfering with the operation of the second hydrant. This was removed. The average pressure was 50 PSI and the average flow was 750 GPM on all hydrants with one exception. The hydrant at the Club house has only a 250 GPM water flow and Mr. Ward agreed to notify the management of this condition. Several hazards have been corrected at the school, such as doors to swimg outward, electrical defects, lack of extinguishers, fire alarm and required fire drills which have been overlooked in the past. The cooperation of the school master, Mr. Miller, is to be commended. Additional hazards such as replacement of bad fire hose, lack of nozzle and need of extinguishers at the Westminster, exit obstruc- tions, poor roof access and extinguishers at the Ville Desta have all been processed and the cooperation throughout has been excellent. The only exception being the refusal of the Gulf Stream Shores Apartments to follow our recommendations regarding standpipes as per the copy of our letter which you have on file. I would also like to mention that our department has just completed negotiations for a tweny -five unit radio alerting system which, in addi- tion to our present siren, will assure a direct and immediate response to future alarms.

BOX 48 I received your letter of May twenty -first with en- closures about which I have talked to you over the phone. If it is the desire of the members of the Town Commis- sion not to come under the Community Action Program of OEO, and I understand it is, the resolution which is enclosed, with copies, should be adopted on June fourteenth and a certified copy mailed to the Palm Beach County Community Action Council which has an office at Palm Beach International Airport, West Palm Beach. With respect to the agreement requested by the Palm Beach County Association of Chiefs of Police, Inc., I am of the opinion that the Town of Gulf Stream may possibly render itself liable for workmen's compensation or liability to outside police officers who may be called in to the Town of Gulf Stream by virtue of the provisions of paragraph 4 (a). In an emergency I feel certain that the Sheriff's department, and possibly police officers from the municipalities adjoining Gulf Stream, will respond without the necessity of a written agreement and unless all of the municipalities in the county are executing the agreement, I recommend that the Town do not execute it. I return herewith the literature which you sent me.
