COtM'IISSIONER
VICE MAYOR
Also Attending: Town Manager William Gwynn, Town Clerk Barbara Gwynn, Police
Chief James Greer, Lieutenant Mahoney, Assistant Town Clerk
Nancy Adams.
The meeting was called to order by Mayor Koch at 5:00 p.m. announcing that this
was a special meeting called in accordance with the State regulations with re-
gard to setting the millage and had been duly advertised with proof of publica-
tion with the Town Clerk and it is to deal with the one subject which is the
Resolutions to establish the millage and the Budget.
The Comrnissioners observed the revised budget which was shown the same as the
September 10, 1982 budget. However, Mayor Koch said there is an addition to
the salaries for the three departments, an increase which reflects roughly 10%
without any change in the total budget.
Town Manager Gwynn read a letter from Commissioner Hunter which has been made a
part of the minutes.
Mayor Koch said he felt the merit system has merit and should be studied. He
said he felt this year the irony should be given to the Department heads and
let them disburse it as they feel they should. Mayor Koch said he felt the
Commission should ask the Town Manager to make a study and consider this with
the Police Chief and any other communities and then next year when discussing
the budget, a full frank discussion could be held to see if the merit system
is the way to go.
Commissioner Dixson stated there were several statements in Commissioner Hunter's
letter with which he took serious issue. He said he did not want to extend or
prolong the debate which he thought was clearly resolved through unanimous agree-
ment at the September 10, 1982 meeting. He also said he would reserve his com-
ments except to observe that the statements made in the letter, in large measure,
are after the decision and after the fact and represent the feelings of one
member of the Council and not necessarily reflect the unanimous thinking of the
Council.
Mayor Koch said it was his understanding that there would be the 7'% and the re-
maining would go to the department heads to do what they want and that it re-
quires a lot of study for the future.
Cann9.ssioner Pfeifler agreed with Mayor Koch but felt it should be done on a
merit system and not across the Board.

Commissioner Armour said he would like to adhere to Commissioner Pfeifler and
Mayor Koch and said he had been contacting various conmvnities throughout the
country and found it to be done on a merit and tenure type of program. He
felt strongly that 10% across the Board this year was wrong without a study as
incentive was an important consideration but felt a study was mandatory.
Mayor Koch said that when the budget is approached next year there will have
been time for a full study.
Commissioner Dixson said he believed the Town Manager and the Police Chief will
be prepared at an early date to deal with the problem of the wisdom, particality
and the viability of a so- called merit system of compensation in a Police force
made up of only nine people. He pointed out Mr. O'Brien's last statement in
his review of the Civic Association Minutes in which he made it very clear that
he expressed to the Council and the Police Department that the Ccnmission was
going to develope a high class, competent police Department with adequate com-
pensation and he wished to remind the Commissioners that the adjustments that
A re envisioned in the 10% increase are only one step in elevating the level of
the compensation of the Police Department to that which it should be to achieve
the kind of compensation that will insure the Commission and the citizens of
the Town the kind of a competent Department that the Town needs and desires.
Commissioner Armour asked Town Manager Gwynn, in "toto ", how notch money did the
budget increase mean to the budget and Mr. Gwynn answered $7,100.00.
Chief Greer said he and Roger Willey, Palm Beach Shores Police Department made
C the motion and seconded it for a resolution that the Chiefs of Police Assoc-
iations of Palm Beach County do a survey and do it completely which will be
prepared before next year. Chief Greer guaranteed the Council that the level
of services that they have received in the past will continue at the present
time and scope.
Town Manager Gwynn then read Resolution #82 -8 adopting the Budget. Commissioner
Armour mmade the motion to adopt this Resolution, Commissioner Dixson seconded
and the motion was passed.

1981 -82 5.7123 63,581,541 363.247
1982 -83 4.2473 -25.6% 101,124,057 +59.1% 429,506 +18.2
The rolled -back rate for the 1982 -83 year is 3.6071 mills. We propose to levy a tax
that is 17.75% greater than this rolled -back rate.
This budget reflects a 7'% salary increase for all departments. The 73-2% is to apply
to the Police Chief and Town Manager specifically as set by the Town Commission. The
other specific increases are to be set by the Chief of Police for the employees in
his department and the Town Manager will determine the specific amounts to the other
Town employees.
No revenue is anticipated from the County Road and Bridge Fund or the new sales tax
allocations to municipalities.

Re: One -Half Cent Sales Tax Distribution
Dear Members of the Council:
The City of Daytona Beach Shores has determined that the dis-
tribution formula contained in House Bill No. 2 -D, ch. 82 -154,
Laws of Florida (new Sales Tax Law), is extremely inequitable
for certain types of communities, including yours, and espe-
cially those cities that are tourist oriented.
Although the primary purpose of the 1/2 cent sales tax col-
lected in each county was to reduce ad valorem taxes within the
county and it's municipalities, the formula for distribution
within the county was made on a per capita basis and ignored
the ad valorem tax base for distribution. To compound the
problem, the sales tax legislation also imposed a millage cap.
Therefore, if you have a large ad valorem tax base but have a
small number of permanent residents, you receive a dispropor-
tionately small share of the increased sales tax revenue. (See
attached Schedule A of (79) cities that have at least a 258 or
more inequitable distribution.)
For instance, under the current formula, your City will receive
$13,876. However, if the distribution had been computed on
your ad valorem tax base, you would receive $74,000.
This inequity coupled with the ad valorem millage cap places
cities such as ours in an untenable position, which will per-
sist each year unless the law is changed.
011r City Council has attempted to have the formula revised both
before and since passage of the bill. In order to persuade the
Legislature to cure this injustice, it is essential that cities
similarly effected become united and organized. We strongly
urge you to persuade your legislative delegation to propose a
remedy to this situation.
Page Two
Our attorneys are researching the feasibility of a lawsuit to
invalidate this inequitable distribution. Preliminary research
indicates that a class action may exist. Although we would
prefer not to file a suit against the state, we are concerned
that the Legislature may not act speedily. We intend to con-
tinue to work through the Florida League of Cities and with our
legislative delegation. However, in order to bring this matter
to the attention of the governing body of our state, we feel it
is important to consider a suit at this time.
Because of the importance of the litigation and the strong
opposition it will generate,*the cost to litigate this matter
will be high. We have estimated the cost to be approximately
$30,000.00 to litigate at the Circuit Court level. If the (79)
communities effected band together to pursue this litigation,
the relative cost will be low.
We believe that it is in your city's best interest in joining
us in a class action suit, and ask that you immediately con-
sider a budget commitment of $1,000.00 to initiate this litiga-
tion. It is important that we move quickly because the sales
tax dollars will soon be distributed.
When we determine that a law suit is feasible or that the
Legislature does not intend to act, we shall ask you for your
contribution and proceed to file suit.
It is important to show the Legislature that we are united and
committed to cure this inequity.
Please respond by September 10, 1982 advising us of your city's
position.

Florida Joint Legislative Management Committee, June 23, 1982.
The purpose of this statement is to inform Our taxpayers and
residents of Gulf Stream, concerning some aspects of the activities
of the Police Department during the past budget year, and their
rightful entitlement to a 10% salary increase. At the same time,
because of its competence and proven accomplishments, and my confidence
that such services will continue for the future, at the same rate of
efficiency, I appeal to the Town Council for reconsideration of its'
decision to limit salary increases
7.� instead of 10% as requested.
for the comming budget year to a
This proposed, tentative increase,
I believe, to be inadequate, unrealistic, and unjust, and is, in fact,
an insufficient reward for the protection that this community has recei�
during the past year, and will continue to receive.
When our budgets were in the preparation stage, the Council was
advised by me that I was recommending this 10% increase, therefore, the
Council was well aware of this request. I informed Police Chief Greer,
and other members of the Department, that I would support, and
Cwas confident, that the Council, in its' sense of obligation and
fairness to the Police Depart ,nt would approve such an increase.
At the budget preparation sessions, the council refused to approve
a 10% salary increase, despite my recommendation, and provisionally
approved only 7� %. I consider this unfair, and a failure on the
part of the Council to recognize the recommendations of the Police
Commissioner, who is responsible for the Police Department and its'
functions. It is my considered judgement that the record of
accomplishment of our Police Department is proven, self evident and
persuasive in support of a 10% increase, in base salary, for the
following reasons:
1. The Department is now fully staffed with an able, and
experienced Chief, and nine professionally qualified Police Officers,
one of whom sometimes functions as a Detective and another as a
Lieutenant, making in all, as I have indicated, a total force of
ten men. They are professional in every respect, and enjoy-an
C�
enviable reputation throughout the Police Agencies of the State, and
Ohave produced for the Town of Gulf Stream, and it's people, a record
of security and protection, for which our citizens can be proud and
I believe, will share the same satisfactions, which I, as a Police
Commissioner and property owner do.
Let's review the record running from the period, January 1981
to January 1982 and through to September, 1982. During this period,
t/ ii.-Y
there have been a total ofAsix serious crimes committed. These
range from Forcible Rape, Burglary, Larceny, Sexual Assault,
Disorderly Intoxication, Possession of Marijuana, and Driving
While Intoxicated. Traffic citations approximate 900. In addition
to the foregoing, numerous arrests, (45 to be exact) have been
made within the jurisdiction of the Town of Gulf Stream for crimes
committed in other communities. The degree of cooperation between the
Police Force of our Town and the Law Enforcement authorities of other
jurisdictions, including the FBI, is functioning at an efficient and
productive level. All crimes committed in Gulf Stream, the details of
which I can supply, have been solved, excepting one Burglary where the
alleged defendant has not yet been apprehended. However, there are
fairly clear suspicions as to who the individual involved may be, but
he has not yet surfaced.
From the foregoing, one must con Jude that the Town of Gulf Stream
is and should continue to be a'safer place to reside, to own property
to rear a family and to otherwise enjoy the benefits, and comfort of
security of person and property. As I have indicated, I asked the
Town Council to approve a 10% salary increase for the Police Officers,
including the Chief and this was declined. The Council tentatively
approving, as I mentioned only 72-%. Let's examine a few facts to
determine just what we are talking about in total dollars and cents
for the Community. It is proposed that the average base salary of a
tenured Police Officer be increased from $16,800.00 per year to
$18,480.00, or, in other words an increase of $1,680.00. The Council
has approved only $1,260.00, the latter representing the equivalent of
7z%, or annually $18,060.00 base salary. The difference of $420.00 is
a lot of money, when one is living at this income level. The take hum
base salary pay of the average Police Officer, after deducting Social
Security, Witholding Tax, Pension Contribution, Group insurance for
family coverage, amounts to approximately $13,500.00. While if the
10% increase were granted, the average take home pay, after similar
deductions would amount to approximately $13,80.00. I have not incluc
overtime pay and State mandated payments, attributed to educational ach
eivement credits because they vary, so widely, man by man, that an
average cannot be fairly computed. Even at 10 %, I consider, and
I am sure most people will agree that considering today's values, and
economic need, prices, rent, indeed the necessities of life, $13,850 a
year is nothing more than a very marginal or modest level of spendable
compensation. If we were to put Police Officers take home pay
compensation on an hourly basis, it would amount to approximately
$8.00 per hour or about the same amount that the average resident is
paying, or perhaps even more, for a gardener or a maid, or even the
cost of a lunch at a modest restaurant. Another important and indeed
very important consideration, which relates to the police officers
function is the constant exposure of the officer to physical harm or
threats to physical harm. Of course it is difficult to put a value
factor on this exposure for the purposes of estimating salaries, and
the reasonableness, thereof. However, one must be realistic and
recognize that a. potentially serious exposure continues to exist every
hour the Police Officer is on the-job. We have had, in this community
thirteen serious threats or actual attacks on our Police officers by
various types of criminals, during the past 18 months. I will
C
describe, briefly, some of these:
Officer Walsh - While on a traffic stop, assaulted with a knife.
Suspect arrested.
Officer Hood - Involved in a high speed chase involving two autos.
One auto lost control, placing Officer Hoods life in jeopardy. Suspect
arrested.
Officer Hatton - While investigating a burglary, a suspect threw a
knife and Officer Hatton fired a shot. Subject not apprehended.
Officer Hatton escaped with minor injury.
Officer Rodriguez - Involved in high speed chases on two seperate occasions,
where suspects' attempted to cause bodily harm to the Officer.
Officer Buchan - Assisted Highland Beach Police DeparLment in saving, Lhe
life of a male Haitian, rescued from the high seas, and recovered other
Haitian bodies from the Beach area.
Officer Bunner - On a traffic stop observed a firearm concealed under the
front seat of a stopped vehicle. He removed the weapon before it could be
utilized by the suspect. Suspect arrested and convicted.
Officer Lundy - Apprehended an armed robbery suspect wanted by the City
of Boynton Beach.
Officer Druien - Apprehended two suspects that were fleeing Delray Beach
Police Department by boat. Both subjects were arrested and the boat was
confiscated, as it approached Gulf Stream at the 8th Street bridge. He
confiscated 20 bails of Marijuana.
I am sure the residents of our Town will be very much interested in a
few of the functions in which the Police Department has added to their
various job assignments, ie:
1. Activated beach patrol with a 4ex4ag vehicles.
2. Purchasing and enforcement of Breathalyzer equipment.
3. Purchasing and enforcement of Radar equipment.
4. Establishment of a reliable record system.
5. Enactment of a workable Crime Watch Program.
6. Utilization of the numerous, ongoing educational and training
programs available to Police Officers and personel.
After due consideration has been given to the proposal for a
10% increase, let's look-at the difference in total cost to the Town
of Gulf Stream. Can you believe what we are talking about? $4,884.00 for
one complete year, added to the total Town budget and if we add adjustments
for other members of the Town staff, sanitation and administrative, the
total cost is $6,346.00, and that, when divided across the community
has a nominal effect upon the millage - that is, 1 /10 of a mill or
lets say $10.00 for a house assessed at $100,000.00. The total difference
between the Police Department compensation budget for the year 1981 -82
Cconverted into millage is .20, in other words 1 /5th of a mill.
Another way of viewing the 10% base salary increase proposed and
comparing it with 7Z% and the impact on residential units, assuming
there are 500 units in the Community, the unit cost on an average
basis would be $533.00 at 7z% and 548.00 at 10 %. A difference of
$15.00 per year or $1.25 per month.
As we recollect the conditions that prevailed in this community and
aI? In, It
the conditions of our Police protection prior to January, 1981 and the
r�
Communities concern and worry about Police affairs and problems, and
make a comparison with what prevails today, one must accept the fact
that not only has progress been made, but the accomplishments are
outstanding, the Town is a better place to live, the security of
people and property is in the hands of competent and professionally
skilled officers, and for this result, I believe the reward of a
10% increase must be recognized as being just, fair, and necessary.
Accordingly, I will ask the Council to reconsider their former decision
and change the increase tentatively provided for 7'k% to 10 %. It is my
personal belief, based on discussions with many of our citizens, that
they are more than happy to pay for this slight adjustment and that our
taxpayers and residents support such an increase. I should also
mention, incidently, that I proposed that our group insurance for family
coverage amounting on an annual basis to $2,426.00 has also been denied,
and furthermore, our request that a pension plan be placed on a non-
contributory basis has also been denied.
I should like to say, with all due respect, for my colleagues,
for whom I have high regard, that I believe the Council has been short
C
sighted, unrealistic, and has done the Department an injustice. The
Department must have the support of the Council and the Community. This
is a small reward for a fine accomplishment.

It is my understanding that you have been appointed, by
the Council as the Chairman of a Projects Planning Committee,
which has, for its' broad objective, the upgrading of facilities
and improvement of various situations and conditions, which
exist in the Town of Gulf Stream.
Since suggestions of Council Members have been requested,
the following projects should receive careful consideration:
1. Acquisition of suitable land for the building of
adequate facilities for the Town Headquarters and Town Hall,
preferably the Phipps land across Sea Road from Town Hall.
The needs are evident to house Town Clerk and records, Police
Department and records, Library, Meeting Hall and a future
Fire Department and its' equipment, including covered areas
for storage and maintenance of vehicles and equipment.
2. The planning and implementation of such a plan is
required now.
3. A solution to the drainage problem, which exists in
many areas of the Town, frequently threatening the security of
improved properties.
4. The development of a plan for establishing, at an early
date, a Paramedical service, East of the Waterway, including
Manalapan, Ocean Ridge, Gulf Stream, and the County pockets, Health
and lives in these areas are in jeopardy because of the unavail-
ability of an adequate and competent service.
Z.
5. A comprehensive street grading and paving program, which
would be activated on a phased basis, but with strict adherence to
the time requirements of such a program once established.
6. Arrangements should be made for placing all telephone and
Florida Power and Light Services underground.
7. A program for more adequate protection of both the Ocean
front and Intracoastal Waterway properties and persons.
8. The Town Charter and Town Ordinances, aside from the zoning
and planning projects, should be updated and redesigned, consistent with
recent court decisions and legislative acts.
9. The traffic conditions on AlA, resulting from intense building
in the area of 8th Street and AlA will precipitate traffic flow and
control problems. We must plan to handle these problems as they will
be observed, during the coming fall, winter and spring season by our
Police Department.
These are but a few of the many matters requiring Council attention.
The action and planning, or lack thereof, of the Council is not keeping
pace with the progress of the Town. As represented by the character
of its' population, its' attitude and its' desires for a better place
within which to live, the status quo is no longer acceptable.
I sincerely hope your Committee will act with all due haste and
the Council, in sum, will activate through adoption,of what I hope
will prove to be a realistic plan, providing for the needs of the
community.
Sincerely

Mr. William Koch, Mayor
Town of Gulf Stream, Florida
Dear Bill:
I regret that I will not be able to attend the meeting of the Gulf Stream Town
Commission scheduled for September 16th. A mix -up in travel plans is
responsible.
At the last meeting the discussion became somewhat heated on the question of
how much should be appropriated in the budget for increases in employees' pay,
7}$ or 10 %. The time devoted to this was disproportionate to its importance.
I would have agreed to either figure with little or no debate and did finally
go for the consensus of 10 %, although I originally thought 7J% was more appro-
priate. We were talking about a difference in the total annual budget of
roughly 1 %. No budget can be that precise.
It is important to bear in mind the debate and the resolution relate to the
total amount which the Commission considers to be required for fair compensa-
tion of its employees.
The resolution as adopted means the management is authorized to incur payroll
costs not to exceed a specified amount for all employees in each classifica-
tion. It does not mean that each employee will get an automatic increase in
pay of 108. It does mean that some employees may get 10 or 15% or even more,
while others may .get a smaller amount or even no increase at all, depending
on the considered judgement of his superior. A sound personnel policy re-
quires periodic performance reviews of each employee and appropriate salary
adjustments. This review is to be conducted by the Town Manager and /or the
Chief of Police. According to the Town Code neither the Mayor nor any other
Commissioner has any administrative duties or responsibilities. No commis-
sioner acting alone has any authority;: it is only the Commission as a whole
which constitutes the legislative branch of the Town Government.
In keeping with these principles it is desirable for the Town Manager axfd,the
Chief of Police to report on changes in personnel status periodically and I
hope this will be done.

costs not to axcced a specified amount for all ra;oloyeos in each classifica-
tion. It doers not wean that each employe* will gut sa automatic increase in
pay of 10;. It does =man that cow employees may gat 10 or 15% cr rven more.
whiles others may get a ^c:allar amount or cvon n� increase at all, depending
on the consiaerpd iudgeaant of his superior. A sound personnel policy re-
quires pariedic performance rv:i;zwa of each employac and appropriate salary
adjustments. This rnsvivw is to b<, conducted by the Town Manage= and /or the
Chief of Polies. According to the Town Coda neither the Mayor nor any other
Cor- nissioner has any adminietrative duties or responsibilities. ..C. commis-
sioner acting, alone has any authority, it is only the Commission as a whole
which constitutes this legislative branch of the Town Goveramaab.
In ks:_;ping with thaw principle.; it is desirable for the Town A'YnagLr and the,
Chief of Police to report on changes in personnel status psriodienlly and 1
hope this will bo done.

Mr. Pulliam Rooh, Mayor
Town of Gulf Stream, Florida
Lear Bill,
I regrat that I will not be able to attend the matting of the calf stroam Town
Commission ochadulad for September 16th. A mix -urn in traval plans is
rwsponsibls.
At the last mnoting the di9cuswion bacawa somewhat heated on the question of
how much should b:: ap.nropriased in the budget for increases in employees, pay,
71% or 101. The tima &tvoted to this was dispropertionatrA to its importance.
I would have agreed to eithor 2igare with little or no debate and did finally
go for the consonsus of 10%, although I originally thou9bb 7 }b was more appro-
priate. we wan.t talking about a differenco in the total annual budget of
roughly lb. M budgot can be that precise.
It is important to bear in mind the debate and that resolution relate to the
total amount which the commission considars to be required for fair compensa-
tion of its employees.
The resolution as adopted means the management is authorized to incur payroll
costs not to excesd a specified amount for all employees in each classifica-
tion. It does not mean that each employee will trot an automatic increase in
pay of 10%. It does mean that come employees may gat 10 or 15% er oven more,
while• others may get a smaller amou-st or even nc: increase at all, depending
on the considered judgement of his superior. A sound personnel policy re-
quires periodic performmnee reviLwa of ,each ouPloyee and appropriate salary
adjustments. This review is to ba conducted by the Town Manager and /or the
Chief of Police. According to the Town Codc neither the Mayor nor any other
Commissioner has any administrative duties or rce:onsibilities. t.o commis-
sioner acting alone has any authority; it is only the Comaismion as a whop
which constitutes the legislative branch of the Sown Governsoah.
In keeping with these principles it is desirable for the Sown Manager and tha
Chief of Police to report on changes in personnel status periodically and I
hope this will he done.
Yours truly,

Dear Brian,
As chairman of the committee for Long Range Planning for the Town
of Gulf Stream I would like to recommend that the following items
be considered in your committee's discussion:
1. A program of road and drainage improvement be established for our
streets which are in very bad conditon.
2. The purchase of land by the Town for future needs.
3. A plan to improve the appearance and possible expand the Town
Hall facilities.
4. A study of the water system is needed and should be accomplished,
if needed, prior to road resurfacing.
5. A plan for Better Fire Protection.
6. The erection of a storage shed for our present equipment and
other maintenance and police equipment which should be purchased
in the future.
I hope these suggestions are of help.
Best regards.
