Home My Public Portal About07/11/1969Present: COMMISSION MEETING July 11, 1969 Mayor Vice -Mayor Commissioner William F. Koch, Jr. Stewart B. Iglehart J. Phil Hoyle Also attending: Richard F. Ward, Henry Lilienthal, Roy Cowart, John Ray (Manager, Florida Power & Light Co.), Henry Pope, Allen House, Kathleen Kirton and Paul Price (Palm Beach Post -Times reporter). Mayor Koch called the meeting to order. Mr. Iglehart moved that the minutes of the meeting held on June 13, 1969 be approved as written and the reading of these minutes be waived. Mr. Hoyle seconded the motion. Motion passed. Mr. Iglehart moved that the Financial Report for June, 1969 be approved as written and all expenses included in the report be approved. Mr. Hoyle seconded the motion. Motion passed. A letter from Mr. George W. Hamilton was read concerning the removal of the stables on Gulf Stream Road. Since the stables are on the property as a non - conforming use and said use has not ceased, it was the opinion of the Commission that the Town has no authority to enter the situation at this time. The complaint was passed on to Mr. CPope as the property owner for any action he might care to take. Police reports for June were read. Regarding the boat situation on the Intracoastal Waterway as carried over from the last meeting, the Town Clerk reported that the Delray Beach boat patrol was not in operation now. It operates only from December through May and Delray Beach officials seemed reluctant to extend the patrol beyond their city limits. The Town Clerk reported that County Commissioner George Warren has advised that the county will place a sign at either end of the Town along the waterway regulating boat traffic. The Town may have its own signs on four feet by six feet plywood for $30.00 per sign. Mr. Iglehart moved that the Town order three such signs. Mr. Hoyle seconded the motion. Motion passed. Mr. House offered the services of himself and his boat to police the waterway in the Town. Since the Town has no ordinances con- trolling boat traffic at this time, the Commission thanked Mr. House for his offer and tabled it for the time being. The Town Clerk reported that a breakdown of the costs given at the last meeting for paving and drainage work on Banyan and Polo Roads is as follows: Banyan Road, $2715.00 of which $950.00 is for pav- ing and Polo Drive, $3425.00 of which $1335.00 is for paving. After discussion on the matter it was decided that the Town maintain its position that drainage work be done by the property owners involved and not at the expense of the Town. The Town Clerk was instructed to pass this information along to the property owners and give them a breakdown of the costs on a front foot basis. COMMISSION MEETING, July 11, 1969 Page 2 Mr. Ray reported that a higher than anticipated cost had delayed the Florida Power & Light Company work on the new pole line along AlA but they expect to start work on the project about the second week in August. The budget report for the third quarter was received by the Commission. The Town Clerk reported that budget preparations are underway and that in checking with the County Tax Assessor it has been learned that the tax roll will be some $578,000.00 lower than last year. Mayor Koch asked Mr. Lilienthal whether the Town could increase the millage more than ten per cent under recent legislation. Mr. Lil- ienthal stated that he felt the Town could raise the millage to meet budgetary requirements but that he had written the Attorney General and requested an opinion from him concerning this matter. The Town Clerk reported that at present all the Town's banking is done at the First National Bank of Delray Beach. Since the Boynton Beach First National Bank has been handling the purchase of Treasury Bills for the Town at no charge, it was requested that the General Fund account be transferred to the Boynton Beach First National Bank. The Commission was in general agreement to this and Mayor Koch suggested it be done with the beginning of the new fiscal year in October. Mayor Koch reported on meetings concerning the fire contract and C asked the feelings of the other commissioners. After discussion, it was agreed that Mr. Iglehart attend the next meeting on the fire contract along with Mayor Koch. Concerning the State Road Department's plans for four - laning AlA, Mr. Iglehart moved that Mr. Lilienthal prepare a Resolution opposing the proposed four - laning and that copies of the Resolution be sent to the State Road Department and the Palm Beach County Commission. Mr. Hoyle seconded the motion. Motion passed. There being no further business to come before the Commission, the meeting was adjourned.
