Town Clerk Taylor advised that the document had been approved
by Ocean Ridge subject to final review by their Attorney which would
be completed this date. The Ocean Ridge Town Manager, James Miceli had
advised that no substantial changes, if any at all, were expected, she
reported. Mrs. Taylor added that the Town of Briny Breezes had approved
the document and authorized execution. She advised that Attorney
Randolph had reviewed the document that was..last considered by the
Commission and recommended some revisions all of which were agreed to
by the other parties with the exception of one which is paragraph 2. e.
found on page 2 of the contract which relates to the Municipalities not
contracting with other providers of EMS services. The Town Clerk
stated that Bethesda Ambulance insisted that this remain and pointed out
that it is contained in the existing contract in the same form. She
said that in speaking to Attny. Randolph, he had advised that he preferred
to have it removed and wanted to go on record as making that recommendatior
but he would not insist. The Town Clerk closed by advising that the
document under consideration at this time reflects the agreed on amendment:
with paragraph 2.e. left in.
Commissioner Armour noted that if one of the Municipalites drops out,
the contract is no longer valid. He was concerned about a statement
made by Commissioner Dyer of Ocean Ridge that "The other towns should be
notified we're not happy with things and are looking at alternatives."
Mayor Koch stated he would not be entering into discussion on this matter
and passed the gavel to Vice Mayor Armour, declaring a conflict in that
he is a member of the Board of Directors of Bethesda Hospital.
Vice Mayor Armour asked if there was further discussion on the contract.
Commissioner Stahl moved that the Mayor and Town Clerk be authorized to
execute the contract provided there were no further changes recommended
by the Town Attorney and provided that the Town of Ocean Ridge and the
Town of Briny Breezes also executed the contract with Bethesda Ambulance
Service, Inc. The motion was seconded by Commissioner Wallace and the
Roll Call was: Commissioner Cross; AYE, Commissioner Stahl; AYE,
Commissioner Wallace; AYE, and Vice Mayor Armour; AYE.
Vice Mayor Armour returned the gavel to Mayor Koch.

to permit con
stat3.on system,- on Town Hall Property submitted by the Gulf
Stream Homeowners Improvement Association, Inc.
Mr. Charles Hallock, representing the Homeowners Association,
advised that the Gulf Stream School had choosen not to grant an easement
for the lift station and recalled that in July of 1989 the Town Commission
had given conceptual approval for placement of the lift station on Town
Hall Property in the northwest corner. He stated that document before
the Commission is an easement deed that the Homeowners are now requesting
the Commission to approve. He stated that the Town would be granted
the right to connect to the private system at no charge for the connection
He further explained that the Town would be responsible for the cost of
the materials from their septic tanks to the system and the labor to
install same, as well as the pass through charge that the City of Boynton
Beach will be charging. Mr. Hallock advised that if the easement is
granted, it will be necessary to remove three palm trees and they will
either cut them or if it is so desired, move them to another location.
He stated that upon completion of the installation, the area disturbed
would be landscaped.
The Town Clerk advised that she had furnished Attny. Randolph with a
copy of the document and he found it to be in order. She went on to
advise that she had pointed out to Mr. Randolph that the Association
had agreed to the landscaping and the free connection (which Mr. Randolph
was not aware of when he reviewed the document) and asked him if that
should be made a part of the deed. Mr. Randolph agreed these should be
included and directed that the reference to the "free hookup" clause
be inserted under "Witnesseth" following the mention of the $10.00 in
hand paid by the Grantee and that a new paragraph be inserted after
paragraph 3. Restoration of Property, to cover the landscaping provision.
Commissioner Armour moved that the Mayor and Town Clerk be authorized
to execute the Easement Deed as amended at the direction of Attny.
Randolph. The motion was seconded by Commissioner Cross. Roll Call:
Comm. Armour; AYE, Comm. Cross; AYE, Comm. Stahl; AYE, Comm. Wallace;
AYE, and Mayor Koch; AYE.
V. Reauest
con
for the sewer line installation.
The Town Clerk advised that the Contractor had requested that a
trailer for just the storage of materials be placed near the site of the
lift station and assured that it would be accessed thru the service
road on the property of the Little Club, not thru the Town Hall Driveway
System. He had stated that the job would move faster by having the
materials stored in the Town rather than having to move them each day
from a location outside the Town. He also stated that the materials
would be moved into the storage area each night which would keep the
Town much cleaner. Commissioner Armour moved that permission for the
placement of the construction trailer be granted provided it be removed
immediately upon completion of the project. The motion was seconded
by Commissioner Stahl and all voted AYE.
