Dixscn Brian Pfeifler Mayor Commissioner Vice Mayor Commissioner Commissioner William Mayer, Planning Board Chairman, John Randolph, Town Attorney, William Gwynn, Town Manager, Barbara Gwynn, Town Clerk, Cynthia Harms, Secretary. The meeting was called to order at 9:00 A.M. by Mayor Koch, and Roll Call was taken. Since there was not a quorum present, they did not have the power to vote on any matters or take any action, and therefore, there would just be discussion. The Financial Report was presented and Mayor Koch questioned certain items relating to the Police Department, which were explained. Mr. Mayer, Chairman, Planning Board presented the variance request from the Gulf Stream Bath and Tennis Club, 925 North Ocean Boulevard, for a shed. The letters from the neighbors, which had been requested, have been received, and other requirements have been ret. Approval will be deferred until Special Meeting to be held. Also, he presented variance request of Anthony Pugliese, 1511 North Ocean Boulevard, and explained that the Attorney has requested a letter of approval from the mortgage holders. Therefore, the Planning Board has not approved the variance pending receipt of said letter. However, it was felt that this should not be the basis for any decision. Mr. Marvin Sanders, Architect, appeared and explained improvements to be made. The matter was deferred until Comrnission has a quorum. Mr. Mayer informed the Commission regarding filling the two vacancies now existing on the Planning Board. No action could be taken at this time. Chief Greer presented the Police Report for the month of July, 1983. Approval was deferred. Mayor Koch then spoke about the budget, and stated that the Conmission has approved a tentative budget, and a letter will be sent out shortly summarizing the two budget meetings and giving the proposed budget to the citizens of the Town. September 8, 1983, at 5:01 P.M. will be the final meeting to approve the budget, and requested that all interested persons be present at said meeting. Commission Meeting August 12, 1983 Page 2. Mayor Koch spoke about the proposed bond issue and items that would be included in same, i.e. Phipps property, paving of roads, and water main connections. Commissioner Armour reported regarding the dredging project and stated that he had talked with Arthur Strock, Engineer, and the permitting should be completed in approximately six weeks. He explained about Department of Environmental Regulations procedures. He explained about the ten canals, seven of which are owned by the Town. He went into detail about the charge for the entire dredging project and assessing the cost of each canal. There was discussion about Ordinance 83 -2, Emergency Medical Service charge. It was decided that August 24, 1983 at 9:00 A.M. will be the next meeting of the Commission, when action will be taken on the two matters for the Planning Board that had previously been advertised, and Planning Board's request for approval of appointments. There being no further business to come before the Commission, the meeting was adjourned at 9:50 A.M. c � Barbara Gwynn Town Clerk August 5, 1963 Gulf Stream Town Commission Town of Gulf Stream 246 Sea Road Gulf Stream, Florida 33444 Gentlemen: 9i EC'ON0 rLOOR 114L.

As President, however, I do not participate in either the preliminary discussions with the owners or architects or in the final approval or disapproval of the plans. All preliminary discusssions or meetings are conducted by our director of Plan Approval who is currently Ruth Clements. She assists the owners and architects in meeting the requirements of our restrictive covenants and presents to our Board of Directors the final proposed plans for a vote by the Board as to approval or disapproval. Although I conduct the meetings of the Board of Directors, I do not participate in any voting by the Directors. I hope that this explanation is sufficient for you to find that no conflict of interest would result if I were to be appointed to serve on the Planning and Zoning Board. Again, I appreciate you considering me for this position and hope that you will provide me with the opportunity to serve on the Board. Sincerely, i THOMAS E.

Additional space is needed in the pantry area to increase kitchen efficiency. In order to facilitate this, the two hot water heaters are to be moved to a structure on the exterior of the current building. In addition, the boiler for the base board heating requires replacment. The new unit will be more energy efficient. To accomplish this it will be necessary to erect an ancillary structure extending four feet, four inches into the easement for a distance of ten feet, eight inches. Every effort will be made to blend this new work into the existing exterior wall. At your request, I have shown the plans to Mike Clark of the Delray ' Planning Department and he sees no code problems from the Delray side of the line. Thank you for giving this matter your consideration and adding it to the next town council meeting agenda. Ver ruly Youms.

Koch Town of Gulfstream Gulfstream, FL 33444 Dear Mayor Koch: The purpose of this letter is to formally submit my application as a candidate for appointment to the Planning and Zoning Board of the Town of Gulfstream. My family and I live at 520 Middle Road and have been residents of the town since June of last year. My aunt, Nancy Mudge, has lived in Gulfstream for the last twenty five years. I would like the opportunity to serve on the Planning and Zoning Board because I am interested in helping monitor the development of the town and specifically, I l am concerned with the preservation of the quality of life in the town. I am, by occupation, an attorney, however, my practice is confined to matters of taxation. I there- fore, do not represent clients in real estate matters unless it is with respect to a tax issue. However, I do have general legal training in that area of the law. I would be most happy to make myself available at any time (within the limits of the Government in the Sunshine statute) to speak with any of the members of the Town Council or Planning and Zoning Board if an interview is appropriate.

Strock, Engineer) Note: 2 of the 10 canals are private & cannot be included in assessment nor bond issue, nor contract the Town will award. B. Estimated Time Once dredging contract has been awarded it will take approx ten(10) weeks to complete project. II. Method of Assessing Cost A. Common cost of set up fee ($25000) to be equally divided be- tween each canal to be dredged. If eight canals are dredged cost per canal would be $3125 /canal. The per canal cost would then be equally divided by the number of lots which have seawalls abutting the canal. This cost would be added to the dredging cost. B.

B. If the two private canals wish to be dredged the common cost of $25000 should be shared with them. C. Shalloway's report indicated less fill to be dredged than AVS & Assoc.

The Department Heads, along with recommendations from several Commissioners, presented a proposed budget of $1,121,000.00, which would have required an increase in Town taxes of approximately 127% over the 1982 taxes. The majority of the Commission felt this was excessive, therefore, during the July 18th hearing, the Commissioners reduced the proposed budget by $284,400.00. This was achieved by reducing some of the proposed capital improvements expenditures, such as reworking the water main connections on A -1 -A at the north end of the system with Boynton Beach, and on the south end with Delray Beach. Also, we deleted from the capital projects section several improvements to the "Phipps" property, recently purchased by the Town. We vetoed the proposal to purchase a police boat and to add an extra policeman to patrol the waterway on the weekends. The Commission also denied a motion to include a 20% pay in- crease for the Police Department. Some of these worthwhile capital im- provements will be included in the bond issue which will be voted on this winter. On July 21, 1983, we held our second meeting, and further reduced the proposed budget by an additional $103,000.00. This was partially achieved by reducing capital expenditures for consulting engineering fees and re- ducing all employee salary increases from a proposed 10% to 8 %. Even with the 8% increase, our patrolman's starting salary will be above the present county mean average of $19,651 per police salary survey 1983, ( see en- closed fact sheet ). The tentative budget now stands at $733,310.00, which would require a tax millage of 5.4076. This would be an increase of 25.9% over last year's millage. To: The Taxpayers of Gulf Stream August 16, 1983 Page -2- For your information, please note the comparison of our present administrative salaries with Manalapan and Ocean Ridge, communities that I feel are similar to Gulf Stream in area and population. Administrative Salaries 1983 Gulf Stream $39,110 Manalapan $92,180 Ocean Ridge $62,214 Both of these meetings were well attended by the public and their comments and suggestions were a big help to the Commission in dealing with this issue. By now, you should have received a notice from the Palm Beach County Property Appraiser's office advising you of the tentative millage rate and the dates and place of the first public hearing on this budget. This meeting will be held Thursday, September 8, 1983, at 5:01 P.M., at the Town Hall, 246 Sea Road, Gulf Stream, Florida. We urge you to attend. I personally feel that we can further cut the budget at that time and still maintain the high quality of service that we have had in the past. Enclosed is a copy of the proposed budget for the year 1983 -84, as compared with the 1982 -83 budget. Also enclosed is a fact sheet that relates to certain items for the budget. Should you have any questions, please call the Town Hall. The number is 276 -5116. 4��" I-," William F. , Jr. Mayor WFR:bg TOWN OF GULF STREAM Police Salary Survey 7/83 Comparison of Selected municipalities: Population Patrolman Gulf Stream 481 18,480 Manalapan 335 18,258* Ocean Ridge 1390 17,794* * Serve as Fire & Policemen Chief 30,800 27,582 25,059 1983 - 1984 POLICE: PRESENT 1983 % PROPOSED 1984 Chief $30,800 8 $33,264 Patrolman 18,480 8 19,958 Sgt. 19,500 8 21,060 Secretary 12,540 0 12,540 ADMMSTRATION: Town Manager,Town Clerk & Librarian 26,510 8 28,630 Assistant Town Clerk 7,800 0 7,800 Assistant to Town Manager 0 New 12,000 Bookkeeping & Billing 4,800 0 4,800 SANITATION: Superviser 17,854 11 19,786 Helper 12,898 4 13,414 TOWN OF GULF STREAM WORKSHEET ADMINISTRATIVE AND GENERAL Manager & Clerk's Salary BUDGET PROPOSED Postage, Printing & Stationary 1982 1983- Office Supplies & Expenses 1983 1984 GENERAL FUND 2,400 5,000 REVENUE: 2,200 2,200 Taxes 429,506 587,633 Fines 9,000 8,000 Permits 3,000 3,000 Licenses 10,000 10,000 Alcoholic Beverages 228 456 Trash Collection 40,000 41,000 Franchise Fla.
