ing The Commission with the desired final Report concerning the

The Mayor, desiring to abstain from further participation in
this phase of the meeting, as he is involved in the Club's
possible sale of the tract referred to above, in the capaci-
ty of Real Estate Broker, turned the "Gavel and Chair" over
to Vice -Mayor John G. Hart who then opened the meeting for
discussion with those present.
General discussion followed and the existing "Water Agreement"
between the Club and the Town was reviewed, particularly Para-
graph 10 thereof, which is as follows:
"That the Club for and during the period covered
by this Contract, or any extension thereof, shall
not sell or dispose of 'its water plant or any in-
terest therein without first giving to the Town a
reasonable opportunity to purchase the same at the
same price and under the same conditions as to pay-
ment or otherwise."
Further discussion disclosed that the Club has received an offer
of $250,000. for a tract of land lying between State Road No. 5,
(U.S. NO. 1) and Dixie Highway, adjacent to and north of Gulf -
Stream Blvd. Within this tract of land are Wells Nos. 2 and 3
which furnish the entire Water Supply for the Town of Gulf Stream
through a 12" transmission line originating in the tract involved.
Mr. Hoyle requested that, prior to the Commission considering
the Town's decision on this ultimate issue, he would prefer hav-
ing the Town's legal counsel present and the Vice -Mayor directed
the Deputy Town Clerk to contact Att'y. Henry F. Lilienthal, the
Town's legal advisor requesting his presence at a continuation
of this discussion.

The Vice -Mayor then stated that this issue, pertaining to the Well
Field tract of land and its possible disposal by the Club, would be
continued at 9:00 A.M., tomorrow - Friday, February 26th, in the
Town Hall.
Vice -Mayor Hart then released the Gavel and Chair to the Mayor who
then resumed conduct of the meeting.
The Town Manager, reminding the Commission of its expressed determi-
nation at its last meeting to hold a Referendum Election on a pro-
posed Sewage Collection and Disposal System on Tuesday, April 6th,
1971, submitted and read Resolution No. 1 -71, being
A RESOLUTION ORDERING AND PROVIDING FOR THE HOLDING OF A
BOND ELECTION OF THE FREEHOLDER ELECTORS AND A BOND ELEC-
TION OF THE QUALIFIED ELECTORS IN THE TOWN OF GULF STREAM,
FLORIDA, ON THE QUESTION OF THE ISSUANCE OF NOT EXCEEDING

tive weeks, the first publication to be not less than 30 days prior
to the date of Election, in compliance with the laws of the State of
Florida.
On motion of Mr. Hoyle, duly seconded by Mr. Hart, the Commission ap-
proved and unanimously adopted, by consent, Resolution No. 1 -71 on

The 'Special Meeting' of February 25th re- convened at 9:00 A.M., Fri-
day, February 26th with all parties being present who were in attend-
ance at the adjourned meeting of the previous day - Feb. 25th.
Mayor Koch again abstained from participating in the discussions con-
cerning the Town's intent relative to effecting purchase of the Well
Field OR relinquishing its right to acquire same, due to his personal
connection in the capacity of Real Estate Estate Broker in the pending
sale of certain lands by the Club, and turned the Gavel and Chair over
to Vice -Mayor John G. Hart.
During further discussions relative to the immediate issue, a survey
was shown, indicating the location of Wells Nos. 2 and 3, which supply
the Town with Water, and which Wells are located within the tract of
land involved in a potential sale, description of which land follows:
That part of the South 1/2 of the S.W. 1/4 of the N.E. 1/4
of Section 4- 46 -43, Palm Beach County, Fla., lying east of
the east right -of -way line of Old Dixie Highway and west
of the west right -of -way line of State Road 5 (U.S. No. 1).
i
Mr. Paul Grady, Treasurer of the Gulf Stream Golf Club, cited the
fact that the "Club's, being wellaware of its responsibilities as
set forth and contained in the "Water Agreement ", dated January
13th, 1966, would maintain control of those particular Well Sites
in case of any land sale thereof, abandoning same ONLY at such time
as an alternate Water Supply, of satisfactory quality and quantity,
had been effected.
Commissioner William S. LaPorte then expressed deep appreciation to
the Gulf Stream Golf Club, and its highly esteemed Board of Governors,
for past and present co- operation in all of the transactions and deal-
ings between the Club and the Town, in view of which fact it has been
and is presently most gratifying for the Commission to consider issues
and problems with the Club and its governing Board who express such
mutual interest and joint co- operation in all undertakings.
Following further general discussion concerning various water supply
areas, the following Resolution No. 2 -71 was submitted and read:

The Secretary of Defense has asked me to reply to your letter of
January 20, 1971 in which you and the other members of the Florida
Congressional Delegation express opposition to relocation of the
Atlantic Undersea Testland Evaluation Center Headquarters at West
Palm Beach, Florida.
During recent months we have been obliged to closely review
all Navy activities with the intent of maximizing efficiency and re-
ducing costs. Any possible adverse economic impact on the communities
surrounding these bases will be carefully studied as will the comments
made by the Florida Congressional Delegation. However, no decisions
have been made other than those already announced. At such times as
decisions are made, notice will be given to interested Members of
Congress in accordance with established Department of Defense pro-
cedures.
I appreciate your interest in this Navy activity and hope that
this information may be of assistance to you. I have sent a similar
reply to the other members of the Florida Congressional Delegation.
Sincerely yours, 1.
John W. Warner
Under Secretary of the Navy
