VII. Applications for Development Approval - PUBLIC HEARING.
A. David Rhoten II, as agent for Eva Hart, 1535 N. Ocean Blvd.
Gulf Stream, Florida 33483.
Mayor Koch passed the gavel to Vice Mayor Armour stating that inasmuch as
his firm is participating in the sale of the Hart property, he is declaring
a conflict of interest.
1. SUBDIVISION & REPLAT- Request to divide the present 200.12'
parcel at the above address into two 100.06' lots.
Attorney Bannister explained that his client is the prospective buyer of
this property and the sale is contingent upon the approval to divide the
parcel into two lots. He further stated that the closing is scheduled for
this afternoon, July 8, 1994, and that the neighbor on each side had been
contacted and neither had an objection to the subdivision.
Regular Meeting and Public Hearing
Town Commission -July 8, 1994 page 2
Mr. Bannister, having been sworn in prior to any discussion of this matter,
stated it would not be possible to divide the property unless the
structure was demolished as it is constructed across what would be the
dividing property line.
Commissioner Wallace advised that the structure was designed by Marion
C S. Wyeth, one of the most recognized architects in the area, and she
questioned if the new owner would object having the Historical Society
possibly remove a portion or portions of the structure to another location.
Mr. Bannister stated he could not speak for his client on this matter
but he could see no reason why this would not be possible as long as it
would not increase the cost of the demolition. He stated he would speak
to his client in this regard.
Commissioner Cross moved to approve the subdivision and replat as shown on
the plan subject to the applicant first obtaining demolition approval and
site plan approval within one year from this date, July 8, 1994. The
motion was seconded by Commissioner True. Roll Call: Comm. Wallace; AYE,
Comm. Cross; AYE, Comm. True; AYE, and Vice Mayor Armour; AYE.
2. DEMOLITION PERMIT -To approve the demolition of the existing
single family structure at the above address.
Commissioner True moved and Commissioner Cross seconded the motion to
approve the demolition permit of all structures indicated on the survey,
with the exception of the seawall, subject to the applicant first obtaining
a site plan approval within one year of this date, July 8, 1994, and that
demolition not take place until the site plan approval is granted; and,
should construction on the new house not begin within three (3) months
of the completion of the demolition, the property must be landscaped and
maintained in the interim. Roll Call: Comm. Wallace; AYE, Comm. Cross;
AYE, Comm. True; AYE, and Vice Mayor Armour; AYE.
3. AlA VEGETATIVE DISTURBANCE PERMIT -To remove the existing
gatehouse and small narrow wall located within 5' of
State Road AlA at the above stated address.
Commissioner True moved, with the motion being seconded by Commissioner
Wallace, that the AlA Vegetative Distrubance Permit be approved as requested
with the same conditions that apply for the demolition permit. Roll Call:
Comm. Wallace; AYE, Comm. Cross; AYE, Comm. True; AYE, and Vice Mayor
Armour; AYE.
Vice Mayor Armour returned the gavel to Mayor Koch.
G` B. Samuel Ogren, Jr., as agent for R. Stewart Scott, 2910 Gulf
Stream Road, Gulf Stream, Florida 33483.
1. SITE PLAN REVIEW -To permit the enclosure of an existing
porch area to add additional living area at the address
stated above.
Town Manager Harrington advised that Mr. Ogren is not present and that he
would explain the request. He stated that the applicant is asking to be
permitted to enclose an existing porch to add additional living area. He
further explained that the structure as it exists exceeds the FAR but that
the area that is to be enclosed is already roofed and counted in the FAR.
Thus, the enclosure does not add to the nonconformity and does not require
a variance.
Regular Meeting and Public Hearing
Town Commission -July 8, 1994 page 3
Joan Orthwein, Chairman of the ARPB, reported that the Architectural
Review and Planning Board recommended that the site plan be approved as
submitted.

site plan be approved as submitted. Roll Call: Comm. Wallace; AYE, Comm.
Cross; AYE, Comm. Armour; AYE, Comm. True; AYE, and Mayor Koch; AYE.

1. SITE PLAN REVIEW -To permit the replacement of an existing
porch with a family room and add an additional 373.5
square feet with additions to various areas of the existing
single family structure at the address stated above.
Once again Mr. Harrington advised that he would explain the request in the
absence of Mr. Ogren and the applicant. He explained that there are
actually five areas to which small additions are planned. 1) Closet
space on the southeast corner of the house. 2) Family room near the north-
west corner of the house, partially replacing an existing covered patio
which will be removed. 3) Guest bedroom on the north side of the house.
4) Two -car garage on northeast corner of the house with a portion of
same converted from existing living area and garage areas. 5) Vestibule
on east side of house.
Chairman Orthwein advised that the ARPB recommends approval of the request
as submitted, adding that all were in agreement that the proposed renovations
will make a vast improvement in the appearance of the structure. Commis-
sioner Armour moved and Commissioner Wallace seconded that the site plan
be approved as submitted. Roll Call: Comm. Wallace; AYE, Comm. Cross;
AYE, Comm. Armour; AYE, Comm. True; AYE, and Mayor Koch; AYE.
D. Malcolm & Amy Butler, 4225 County Road, Gulf Stream, Florida.
1. VARIANCE -To permit the addition of a garage that would
encroach 5' into the north side yard setback and addition
of a second story that will exceed the maximum floor area
ratio by 4 percent.
Amy Butler was recognized and explained that her lot is one of the smallest
in the Town and pointed out that when comparing her dwelling to others
along County Road, it is much smaller than the average. She stated that
the improvements that are proposed are intended to bring her property more
into conformity with others in the area. She added that the additions are
the minimum possible to be functional and architecturally pleasing.
Mayor Koch called attention to a letter from Brooke Lee, an adjacent
neighbor, who is opposed to the proposed improvements. Mrs. Butler advised
she had spoken to Mrs. Lee and sent her copies of the plans. Following
that, Mrs. Lee had told her that she had no objection and that she regret-
ted having sent the letter. Commissioner Armour questioned if the existing
landscape buffer next to Mrs. Lee would remain. Mrs. Butler stated that
the planting is on the Lee property and they would not be removing it.
Mrs, Orthwein, Chairman of the ARPB, reported that the Board recommended
that both variance requestes be granted as submitted. Mr. Harrington
Regular Meeting and Pulbic Hearing
Town Commission -July 8, 1994

stated that the structures on each side of the Butlers are approximately
the same size as the existing Butler structure and that they would be
able to add on if they so desire without exceeding the FAR.

A. Town Manager
1. Bi- monthly Water Use.
Mr. Harrington called attention to the bar graph comparing
water consumption by fiscal years. He pointed out that the period of
June and July is critical in that in the year 1992 -1993, water consumption
had exceeded the previous three years for the same period. He stated
that he expects to address the matter of water conservation in the
rate study that is soon to be commenced.
2. September Ordinance Adoption.
The Town Manager reminded that the Commission directed that
three ordinances be prepared for the September, 1994 agenda addressing
1) Home occupations; 2) Parking on front lawns; 3) Deleting ARPB
meetings during the month of August. He questioned if perhaps the Commis-
sion would want to de]ayaction on these and include them with the new
ordinances that will be needed in regard to the zoning changes that may
result from the study that is now underway, thus reducing the cost of ad-
vertising. The Commission directed that they be prepared for at least
a preliminary review in September.
B. Town Attorney.
There was no report from the Town Attorney.
C. Architectural Review and Planning Board
1. Regular Meeting & Public Hearing July 27, 1994 at 9 A.M.
Chairman Orthwein announced the above.
D. Finance Director
1. Financial Report for June, 1994.
Mr. Gwynn presented a partial report, advising that due to the early date
of the meeting following the close of the month and the preparation of the
proposed budget, he had been unable to complete the comparision portion of
the report. He called attention to three items of revenue, Fines,
County Gas Tax and Half Cent Sales Tax which cover a two month period. He
further pointed out that the balance in the Invested Funds for the General
Fund is higher than last year at this time by $23,000.00.
There was no motion to approve the report in that it was not complete.
Regular Meeting and Public Hearing
Town Commission -July 8, 1994 page 5
E. Police Report for June, 1994
Chief Schultz reported that he attended the Palm Beach County E.O.C.
Hurricane Drill on June 15, 1994 at the Delray Beach Fire Department main
station. He further reported that 1h hrs. after the start of the exercise
it became apparent that the County was unable to fulfill requested assist-
ance from municipalities. Chief Schultz closed by stating that the
conclusion from this is that the municipalities are on their own when it
comes to a countywide emergency.
F. Construction in Progress.
1. In May, 1994
The report revealed there to be $6,397,560 worth of construction in
progress in May, 1994.
2. In June, 1994
There was $6,481,895 worth of construction in progress in June, 1994.
IX. Items for Commission Action.
A. Proposal for Trimming Australian Pines.
Mr. Harrington reported that the one day trial, trimming the trees, went
very well. As a result Mr. Hoyt has presented a proposal to complete the
trimming with two options. To complete Phase I at this time and Phase II
at a later time, the total cost would be $46,034. To complete both Phase
I and Phase II at the same time, the cost would be $37,148. In view of the
large savings, Commissioner True moved that Phase I and Phase II be complet-
ed as soon as possible at a cost of $37,148. The motion was seconded by
Commissioner Wallace. Roll Call: Comm. Wallace; AYE, Comm. Cross; AYE,
Comm. Armour; AYE, Comm. True; AYE, and Mayor Koch; AYE.
B. PRESENTATION OF PROPOSED BUDGET FOR 1994 -1995
Mr. Harrington presented the budget as proposed for 1994 -1995 and explained
that there is $5,500 less than last year in anticipated revenue. He advised
that the figures being used for estimates are taken one month earlier than
last year due to the early date selected for budget presentation and pre-
liminary figures from the Property Appraiser have been used for the same
reason. He advised he had cut the contingency by $5000 in order to balance.
He stated the budget reflects a tax increase of h of 1% and it would be
necessary to cut $4,400 from the expenditures to reach the rolled back rate.
He believed this presents three options. 1) Set the millage at h of 1% over
rolled back rate. 2) Go to the rolled back rate. 3) Put the $5,000 back into
contingency and set the proposed millage at 18 or more over rolled back rate.
He stated it was his intention to present a budget at the rolled back rate
but this could be achieved only by cutting the contingency.
Finance Director Gwynn stated that during the next three months they would
be looking at the figures in order to get a more accurate estimate of revenue
and expenditures by the time of actual budget adoption. Mr. Harrington
reminded that once the proposed millage is set, it cannot be increased later
but that it can be reduced. He stated he and Mr. Gwynn would work to reduce
the budget between now and September. Commissioner True and Commissioner
Wallace believed that the millage should be proposed at a greater than rol-
led back rate in order to give the manager some latitude in the event the
estimates proved to be unrealistic. Commissioner True noted that the rolled
back rate of 3.2897 mills increased by 1% would be 3.3226 mills per $1,000
of assessed value.
Mr. Armour called attention to a letter from the Place Au Soleil Homeowners
Association requesting that the Town include $5,500 in the budget to trim
certain trees in Place Au Soleil and maintain the entrance landscaping.
Regular Meeting and Public Hearing
Town Commission -July 8, 1994 page 6
Mr. Rob Dittman, Vice President of the Association stated that they are
requesting that the Town include $4,500 to cover maintenance of the
landscaping at the entrance to Place Au Soleil and $1,000 to cover the
cost of trimming or removing certain trees that are blocking the street
lights. He further stated that this cost is substantially less than
the proposed cost of the AlA Australian pine tree project. Commissioner
Wallace pointed out that the AlA project is a one time cost as the
remaining will be covered by donations while the maintenance in Place
C
Au Soleil.is continuing. Mr. Dittman advised that the Association has
been paying for this but it has been increasingly difficult to collect
the assessments in that there is no mandatory provision for doing so.
Commissioner True suggested that $2,000 be donated to the Association
to help defray the costs. Commissioner Armour was not in favor of the
Town participating in the tree trimming as there would be other residents
who would expect their trees to be trimmed if they overhung the right -
of -way. He was in favor of paying for the maintenance of the entrance.
Commissioner Wallace pointed out that the Town currently spends $1,200
per year to cover the cost of watering the entrance area. Town Manager
Harrington advised that he had reviewed the records and found that at the
time the entrance was changed, Place Au Soleil Association asked the
Town for funds and labor to landscape the area. The Association then
further stated that if the Town would help, the Association would be
responsible for maintaining it. He added that the Town does maintain
the guard house that was paid for by the Association and given to the
Town.
Commissioner True moved to increase the proposed budget by $2,000 to
be given to the Association for maintenance of the entrance. The motion
was seconded by Commissioner Wallace. Roll Call: Comm. Wallace; AYE,
Comm. Cross; AYE, Comm. Armour; AYE, Comm. True; AYE, and Mayor Koch; AYE.
2. Proposed Operating Millaqe Rate for 1994 -1995.
Commissioner True then moved and Commissioner Wallace seconded that the
proposed millage be established at 3.3226 per $1,000 of appraised value.
Following discussion, Commissioner Wallace withdrew her second and Commis-
sioner True withdrew his motion.
Commissioner True moved that the proposed operating millage be established
at 3.3298 mills per $1,000 of assessed value, which will generate approximate-
ly $917,360 in taxes and would be an increase of 1.22% over 1993 -1994. The
motion was seconded by Commissioner Wallace. Roll Call: Comm. Wallace; AYE,
Comm. Cross; AYE, Comm. Armour; AYE, Comm. True; AYE, and Mayor Koch; NAY.
Mayor Koch explained that he was not in favor of increasing the millage to
cover the $2,000 that was added to the budget for maintenance to the entrance
of Place Au Soleil. He believed that $2,000 should be cut from other
budgeted items to cover it.
Commissioner Wallace was excused from the meeting in order to keep a
previous appointment.
3. Proposed Debt Service Millage Rate for 1994 -1995.
Commissioner Armour moved and Commissioner True seconded that the proposed
millage be established at .7434 for the debt service. Roll Call: Comm.
Cross; AYE, Comm. Armour; AYE, Comm. True; AYE, and Mayor Koch; AYE.
