of the Regular Meeting /Public Hearing of March 9, 1990. Commissioner Stahl

Cross moved and Commissioner Armour seconded that the minutes be approved
as amended and all voted AYE.

VIII. PUBLIC HEARING
A. Variances
1. Action Deferred from March 9, 1990 Hearing.
a. Dr. William Chardack, 547 Golfview Dr. requesting a
variance to permit installation of a satellite dish
antenna which will encroach 11.5' into the required
22.5' side setback. The proposed installation would be
O at the address stated, the legal description of
which is Lot 26, Gulfstream Cove Subdivision.
A letter from Dr. Chardack was presented wherein it was stated that Dr.
Chardack was withdrawing the request.
b. James B. Orthwein, 330 Banyan Road, Gulf Stream, F1.
requesting a variance to permit construction of a
single family dwelling which will extend 13.5' into
the required 2B.25' side yard setback on the west side,
said construction to take place on the property located
on the northwest corner of Polo Dr. and Banyan Road.
Mr. William Mayer, Chairman of the Planning Board advised that subsequent
to the recommendation being made by the Planning Board with regard to Mr.
Orthwein's request, Mr. Orthwein had submitted a new site plan, moving
the structure farther to the east, thus eliminating the need for the
variance requested.
2. Curtis D. Meade, Agent for Sally Mills, 330 Old School Rd.
requesting a variance to permit alteration of a non- conform-
ing structure by addition of a bay window and closet
projection that would encroach 5.6' into the required 19.4'

porch which encroaches 10.3' into the required 19.5' rear
yard setback at the address aforementioned.

variance requested by Curtis D. Meade be granted as requested. No objections
were received. Commissioner Armour moved and Commissioner Cross seconded
that the variance be granted as requested and all voted AYE.

dwelling structure, to be constructed on a corner lot, to
face the side street. The location of the proposed
construction,on the northwest corner of Polo Dr. & Banyan Rd.
Mayor Koch passed the gavel to Vice Mayor Alan I. Armour and went on to
declare that he has a conflict in that his firm had been involved in the
sale of the property under development. Mr. Mayer stated that even tho the
original site plan had been altered, the garage doors would still be
facing a street since this is a corner lot which will require a variance.
Mr. Brandt, Code Enforcement officer, called attention to the fact that
in the new site plan, the width of the driveway has been reduced from 32'
to 16' which will permit additional landscaping to screen a greater portion
of the garage doors. Commissioner Cross moved the variance be granted as
requested based on the new site plan, seconded by Commissioner Wallace.
Roll Call: Commissioner Cross, AYE; Commissioner Stahl, AYE; Commissioner
Wallace, AYE; Vice Mayor Armour, AYE.
Vice Mayor Armour returned the gavel to Mayor Koch.
Town Commission Meeting Minutes of April 24, 1990 page -3-
Mr. Clark advised that the following subjects were already covered in the
existing codes: Traffic Flow, Landscape, Beach Protection.
He further advised that the following subjects could be covered by adopting
by reference, existing county wide ordinances: Protection of environmentally
sensitive lands, Impact Fees, and Protected Species. Mayor Koch stated
that after reviewing these, the Town may want to.:alter some provisions.
Mr. Clark assured that this would be possible.
Mr. Clark stated that some of the existing ordinances of the Town would
need revision to cover the following items:Revision to Site Plan /Subdivision
Requirements, Marina Development, and Intracoastal Water Way Dumping.
New ordinances would be needed to cover the following: Recreation, Shoreline
Stabilization and Historical Preservation.
The maximum cost for the above would be $10,350.00 which includes represent-
ation at one meeting. It was noted that it would still be necessary for
the Town Attorney to review each prior to adoption and make any necessary
revisions to the product. Mr. Clark advised that billing would be on
a monthly basis for the percentage of the contract completed and that
invoices are payable within 30 days of billing. He felt they could be
completed within three months. Mr. Clark, when ask if the fee would cover
the necessary advertising, replied that it would.
Mr. Clark added that the item of an ordinance to cover PUD, Mixed Development
and Planned Communities had not been included as it was felt that the
Comprehensive Plan should be amended to eliminate the need for an ordinance.
The written proposal submitted by Jones, Foster, Johnston & Stubbs was
reviewed. It was noted that all of the required items were covered in the
proposal and that the fee of $13,750.00 covered legal review and advertising
as well as the preparation, in ordinance form, the three draft regulations
already completed by Resource Engineering and Planning.
The Commissioners agreed that the fees on both proposals were comparable
and both firms have worked with the Town on the Planning Process. Commis-
sioner Armour commented that he favored the checks and balances that would
occur at having Resource Planning prepare the ordinances and having Jones,
Foster, Johnston & Stubbs do the legal review. Commissioner Cross favored
the suggestion and moved to contract with Resourse Engineering & Planning
for the work outlined in Mr. Clark's verbal proposal with legal review to
be done by Mr. Randolph's firm. The motion was seconded by Commissioner
Wallace. Roll Call: Commissioner Cross, AYE; Commissioner Armour, AYE;
Commissioner Stahl, AYE; Commissioner Wallace, AYE; Mayor Koch, NAY.

X. Reports
A. Town Manager
1. Local Census
2. Water Usage
Town Manager advised he would cover items one and two together since they
are related. He stated that the local census conducted by the Gulf Stream
Police Department has determined that the current population is 930 persons.
He added that he is quite certain that the U.S. Census will not support
�1 this but the fact is that the 930 figure must be considered when computing
the per capita water consumption. Mr. Flannery stated that the amount of
water used in March exceeded that used in February by 10% and that a
comparision to a like period in 1989 indicated that the usage is down
by 2.4 %. There were several suggestions as to what might be done to to
reduce water usage some of which were to increase rates when usage exceeded
a certain level; providing each consumer with a comparison of what was
previously used with each billing; include certain pages from the stipula-
tion with DCA with the billings to impress on residents what the Town must
achieve; include letters to residents to caution about over watering while
they are not in residence. Mayor Koch pointed out that the Town Manager
will be establishing a program to reduce consumption along the guidelines
stipulated to and he suggested that nothing be done until that is prepared
and reviewed.

4. Town Manager absence in June

One of the Commissioners thought a conflict might also exist with some of
their plans. The Manager was directed to contact each Commissioner at
a later time when they have their personal calendars and attempt to arrive
at a mutually acceptable date.

cost comparisions with regard to trash pickup. He stated he had contacted

revenue is $17,000 over what was budgeted. He stated that the cash
projection indicates we are at the point we expected to be and that we
should have cash to carry thru October /November at which time the tax
revenues will start coming in. Commissioner Stahl noted that while all of
what Mr. Gwynn says is true, the Town is still $26,000 over the budgeted

D. Selection of date for Workshop RE: Landmark Preservation &
Architectural Review
Mrs. Krolik was asked by Mayor Koch what date was being requested. She
advised that if possible, May 9, 1990 at 9:00 A.M. She also suggested that
perhaps an alternate date should also be offered and suggested May 7, 1990
at 9:00 A.M. Mayor Koch directed the staff to contact the Commissioners
regarding this date at the same time they are arranging the June meeting
date. It was also noted that Commissioner Stahl would be unable to attend
the May 11th meeting and that perhaps that could also be rescheduled.
Town Manager Flannery stated that the staff would be contacting the Commis-
sioners to resolve the rescheduling for most of the summer.
E. Ordinance 90/1; An amendment to various sectionsof the zoning
code to establish regulations for lots of less than 20,000 sq.
ft., maximum lot coverage, minimum landscaped percentage, and
to provide that variances expire within 12 months from granting.
Content of the Ordinance was discussed and it was agreed that certain
definations be expanded, one of which was that of a flat roof. Commissioner
Armour noted that in the past it had been decided that during the process
of zoning code amendments, there should be included a provision to prevent
single family dwellings from being converted to duplex dwellings. Attorney
Randolph also remembered this and advised that this is usually handled by
prohibiting a second kitchen and prohibiting any kitchens in guest houses.
Commissioner Armour moved and Commissioner Stahl seconded that Ordinance 90/1
be placed on 1st reading with the amendments that had been addressed which
would include provisions to prohibit conversions to duplex dwellings. The
motion was seconded by Commissioner Stahl and all voted AYE. Attorney
Randolph advised that this ordinance will need 2 public hearings and 2
quarter page newspaper ads.

from the Town of Gulf Stream to the City of Boynton Beach stating that

responsible for maintenance of system etc. Mr. Charles Hallock, representing
the Homeowners Assn. stated that a document is being prepared that will
enable the Association to utilize rights -of -way for the installation.

that any damage caused by the installation would be taken care of by the
Association..

by May 1, 1990. After they have completed their construction, that of the
Homeowners will begin. He hopes to Begin July 1, 1990 and hopes to be
completed by October 1, 1990.

Homeowners Association and the City of Boynton Beach in the matter of
providing sewage facilities, the Town of Gulf Stream has considered same
