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.

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.
