VIII. Reports.
A. Town Manager
1. Bi- monthly water consumption
Regular Meeting -Town Commission
September 5, 1995 page 2
Town Manager Harrington advised that the June /July, 1995 period reflects the
lowest bimonthly water consumption in seven years. He further advised that
if the trend continues, this year will reflect the lowest annual consumption
in seven years.
2. Update on State of Florida Coastal Construction Control Line.
Mr. Harrington advised that he and Mayor Koch had met with the Mayor of
C Highland Beach, who is involved in a coalition of coastal property owners
that is contesting the re- establishment of the Control Line. He reminded
that the Department of Environmental Protection is under a legislative
mandate to report to the Governor and Cabinet by the end of the year with
regard to the re- establishment of the line. Mr. Harrington said that Dr.
Dean had been hired to restudy this matter,as the model that had been
used to determine the proposed relocation of the Control Line was outdated.
He further stated that a peer review committee had also been appointed
to review the findings in the new study. After months of study, Dr. Dean
concluded that the original proposed relocation was the proper one.
However, the peer review committee did not believe this to be accurate
as the same outdated model was used. Mr. Harrington advised that the
members of the coalition believed that the Department of Environmental
Protection was sick of the entire matter and would go to the Cabinet with
Dr. Dean's findings. The Town Manager pointed out that 22 other Counties
have had the Coastal Construction Control Line relocated thru the use of
this same model and he believed that DEP is concerned about a challenge
of that action if a different model is used for Palm Beach County. Mr.
Harrington advised that the members of the coalition had determined that
the proper course of action at this time would be to seek support from
the legislative delegation to delegate the responsibility of locating
the Control Line from the DEP to the Palm Beach County Commission.
Mayor Koch favored the plan to have the State of Florida delegate this
authority to Palm Beach County.
Commissioner McCarty arrived at this point and advised that the County
Commission is asking the legislative delegation to support this delegation
of authority. She further advised that support of this would be requested
from the municipalities in the form of resolutions.
Mayor Koch welcomed Commissioner McCarty and asked that she step to the
podium for her presetnation.
Commissioner McCarty began by advising that for the seventh straight year
the County Commission is proposing no ad valorem tax increase and in fact
are proposing a 3/10 reduction from last year's rate. She further advised
that the per capita cost has been reduced 17% since 1990, resulting in
Palm Beach County being the sixth lowest in the state. Commissioner
McCarty then stated that County employees have been reduced by 14% since
1990 and that in spite of no tax increases, libraries, parks and additional
road miles have been added during this period.
With regard to the matter of redistributing the Tourist Development Council
Tax Revenues, Commissioner McCarty explained that by diverting $200,000
from beach renourishment to Film & Television and Special Projects, it
is expected that sports competitions and major events will be attracted
which will bring in more tourist revenue to be divided. In addition, she
stated that $600,000 had been placed as a line item in the budget for
beach restoration which results in a net increase of $400,000 for beach
renourshiment.
Regular Meeting -Town Commission
September 5, 1995 page 3
When asked if she favored extending the south jetty at the Boynton Inlet
she replied that the County did not believe that this is necessary to
prevent sand from washing into the Inlet after the beach is renourished
but that the South Lake Worth Inlet Commission did feel this would happen.
Commissioner McCarty stated the County Commission will not oppose the
extension in order to keep the Inlet Commission from opposing the beach
Crestoration that is so badly needed.
Commissioner McCarty then turned to the matter of the proposed referendum
for the establishment of a sales tax to fund new school construction.
She advised that the school board is seeking approval from the County
Commission to place the matter on a special referendum ballot that would
be before the voters on November 7, 1995. She stated that during
their presentation before the Commission, many questions were asked that
they were unable to answer and they were directed to return at a later
date with answers. Commissioner McCarty stated that she is opposed to
holding an off -year election for this one issue as it is not fair to the
voters. She further felt that the school board should have a master
plan to cover all aspects of their program including the quality of
education that could be expected with the expenditure of sales tax money
before any referendum is authorized. Commissioner McCarty believed there
are other options for the school board to explore to solve some of their
problems before resorting to a sales tax referendum. Town Manager Harrington
added that before a referendum could be held, it would also be necessary
for municipalities representing 518 of the population of Palm Beach County
to approve the special election on the referendum.
Referring to the matter of the Agriculture Reserve, Commissioner McCarty
stated that she had been in favor of purchasing, with tax revenues,
development rights from property owners of 20,000 acres west of Delray
Beach and Boynton _Beach, etc.to assure the land would stay agricultural
and not be developed.. She pointed out that the current zoning permits 1
unit per 5 acres. The Commissioner advised that there is a settlement
being considered that would require that 608 of the parcel be kept as
agricultural with 408 permitted for development. She closed the issue
by advising that she is opposed to holding any special election to decide
this matter, but was in favor of the voters deciding it in a regular election.
Commissioner McCarty closed her presentation by advising that she has the
support of the other County Commissioners, and it appears some of the
State Legislators, to pursue legislative action to reduce the tolls on
Florida's Turnpike for trucks in order to encourage trucks to use the
toll road and get off I -95. She pointed to the increase of accidents
involving large trucks on I -95 since the tolls were increased on the
Turnpike.
Mayor Koch stated he would favor resolutions from Gulf Stream supporting
the effort to move truck traffic back to the toll road and opposing a
special election for the Agriculture Reserve issue. The Mayor and members
of the Commission congratulated Commissioner McCarty on her performance
on the County Commission and thanked her for sharing her position on
the current issues before the County Commission.
B. Town Attorney
1. Discussion of property maintenance regulations & alternatives.
Attorney John Randolph advised that Town Manager Harrington has been
Regular Meeting -Town Commission
September 5, 1995 page 4
considering provisions in a property maintenance ordinance but recognizes
there will be a problem of enforcement of an ordinance of this type.
Mr. Randolph advised there are 4 alternatives of enforcement as follows:
1) A fine system -A citation would be issued by a police officer for a
violation of the ordinance and the property owner would appear before a
judge., Should the judge find the property to be in violation, he
would assess a fine as he deemed proper. This does not get the
property cleaned up or repaired. The Town could do the work and lien
the property. This method is now in place in the code.
2) Code Enforcement Board -This board would be made up of town residents
in front of whom would appear the property owner who was found by the
Code Enforcement Officer to be in violation of the ordinance. In most
cases the property owner will correct the violations rather than
appear before his neighbors. However, if an owner is determined not to
comply, the Board may levy a fine for each day the violation continues.
If the owner does not pay these fines and does not correct his violations
the Town can foreclose, unless the property is homesteaded, but that
is an expensive process and any mortgages on the property would be
satisfied before the Town.
3) Special Master -This method is like the Code Enforcement Board except
a special master takes the action rather than the Board. The result
is the same as that of the Code Enforcement Board.
4) Civil Action -The Commission would file a civil action in which the
Judge would be asked to order the violation corrected. This is an
expensive procedure and could take a considerable amount of time.
He closed by advising that an ordinance would be necessary to create the
positions for a Code Enforcement Board or a Special Master. The other
actions could take place under the current codes.
Following considerable discussion, it was unimously agreed that none of
the alternatives would correct the current problem and therefore, there
is no need to make any code changes at this time.
C. Finance Director
1. Financial Report for August, 1995
Due to the early date of this meeting, there was not time to prepare a
financial report,Mr. Gwynn said. He added that it would be available
for the September 20, 1995 public hearing for budget adoption.

/_1 Koch called the meeting to order at 5:25 P.M

Zora Eaton, a town resident, was recognized by Mayor Koch. She
called attention to the fact that some lawn maintenance persons were
blowing leaves and twiggs into the streets rather than raking them up
and removing them. She noted that in so doing, the debris was being
scattered on other properties by the cars running thru the accumulation
on the roads. The Town Manager was directed to investigate this matter
and take appropriate action.
Town Manager Harrington advised that he had been advised that the Olympic
Torch would pass through this area and questioned if the Commission would
prefer to have it carried on AlA or U.S. 1. The Commission agreed that
U.S. 1 would be the preferred route.

IV. Presentation of the proposed Budget and Proposed Milla a Rate for
Fiscal Year 1995 -1996.
A. Discussion from Commission and Public
Town Manager Harrington presented the proposed budget with amendments which
reduced the proposed millage to the rolled back rate of 3.2568 mills. He
explained that he had received additional information since the last budget
hearing with regard to the ad valorem tax revenue, the interest income,
and the half cent sales tax revenues. He further advised that a final
figure had been made available for the health insurance which made it
necessary to amend the expenditure figure in each of the departments
dealing with employee benefits. In making these adjustments, increasing
the transfer from the water fund to $55,520, and increasing the carry -over
from previous years to $93,600, it had been possible to meet the rolled
back millage rate. Mr. Harrington pointed out that the administrative
salary figure has been increased due to the fact he is asking to hire
a full time employee as Finance Director who would also assume some of
the responsibilities that he has been handling. Mr. Harrington said that
with the additional zoning provisions and more code enforcement to be
done, additional help is need but not a full time person. He beleived
that by changing the finance responsibilities from a contractual arrangement
to a salaried employee, there would be time for the employee to perform
all tasks related to finance and assist with other areas of responsibility.
Mr. Harrington praised the work that William Gwynn and his office staff have
performed,and went on record as stating that this recommended change is in
no way a reflection on Mr. Gwynn or his work.

V. Adoption of Tentative Millage Rate for Fiscal Year 1995 -1996.
A. General Fund

1995 -1996 for the General Fund be established at 3.2568 mills per $1,000
of appraised value. Commissioner Orthwein seconded the motion. Roll Call:
Comm. Orthwein; AYE, Comm. Armour; AYE, Comm. True; AYE, and Mayor Koch;
AYE.
B. Debt Service Fund
Commissioner Armour moved and Commissioner True seconded that the Tentative
Millage Rate for Fiscal Year 1995 -1996 for the General Fund be established
at .7275 mills per each $1,000 of appraised value. Roll Call: Comm.
Orthwein; AYE, Comm. Armour; AYE, Comm. True; AYE, and Mayor Koch; AYE.
Commissioner Armour asked if this would be the last full year of the debt
to which Mr. Gwynn replied that it would be the last full year but there
would be a portion to pay in the 1996 -1997 fiscal year.
VI. Adoption of Tentative Budget for Fiscal Year 1995 -1996.
A. General Fund
Commissioner Orthwein. moved and Commissioner Armour seconded that a Tent-
ative Budget for the General Fund for Fiscal Year 1995 -1996 be adopted in
the amount of $1,285,130. Roll Call: Comm. Orthwein; AYE, Comm. Armour;
AYE, Comm. True; AYE, and Mayor Koch; AYE.
B. Enterprise Fund (Water)
Town Manager Harrington explained that this Tentative Budget in the amount
of $492,180.00 reflects an increase in the base service charge to customers
in the amount of $2.00 per billing period (2 months) which was made neces-
sary due to lower water sales and a 5% increase in the price of water to
be purchased from the City of Delray Beach. He went on to explain that
the lower amount of water sales is due to the conservation efforts, one
of which was the new water rate system that was extablished at the beginning
of the last fiscal year, undertaken by the Town. He added that some of
the commercial customers have down -sized their water meters during the
past year as their charges are influenced by the size meter they have. This
has also resulted in a loss of revenue.
Commissioner Orthwein moved and Commissioner True
adopt a Tentative Budget for the Enterprise Fund
in the amount of $492,180.00. Roll Call: Comm.
