County Road Improvements /Acceptance of Ownership Town Manager Thrasher explained that Palm Beach County is proposing to ✓f do improvements to County Road, provided the Town agrees to accept responsibility for all future maintenance. He then introduced Mr. Ray Boyne, Construction Project Specialist in the Road Section with Palm Beach County Engineering. Mr. Boyne explained that County Road, at the intersection with AlA, is 6" lower than AlA and 4" lower than the swale along AlA, which results in standing water on County Road. He further explained that the proposed project would include lowering that swale 3 ", causing the runoff to flow south, and milling the existing pavement before adding the new surface so that the existing driveways along County Road would Town Commission - Regular Meeting September 14, 2001 Page 2 meet the road at the same elevation. He noted that several properties have curbs or swales along the property line, which would not be disturbed in this project. Mayor Koch stated that the majority in unincorporated Palm Beach County future maintenance responsibilities redevelopment along County Road. He increased usage with no tax money a �J future maintenance. of the property along County Road is and he would be unwilling to accept due to the probability of pointed out that the road would have )ming to the Town to offset the The other members of the Commission were in agreement with the Mayor, pointing out that the Town has recently spent a considerable amount on drainage improvements and it is not feasible to assume additional responsibilities in this area. Commissioner Orthwein moved and Commissioner Lynch seconded that the Town respectfully decline the offer from Palm Beach County and a letter be sent to confirm the action. Roll Call: Comm. Orthwein; AYE, Comm. Devitt; AYE, Comm. Lynch; AYE, Comm. Hopkins; AYE, and Mayor Koch; AYE. The Commission thanked Mr. Boyne for all of his valuable assistance to the Town in the past. 2. Project Updates a. 2950 Polo Drive Outfall Mr. Thrasher reported that this project commenced on July 5 and was completed on August 31, 2001. He advised that it had been expected that it would be completed in 2 to 3 weeks, but rock was encountered in a very confined area of the project that made it difficult to bring in the proper type of equipment to break up the rock. The Town Manager added that both he and the engineer had followed and inspected the project, and found the work to be very satisfactory. He pointed out that there and been no discussion regarding the overrun until the project had been completed and inspected. (1) Contractors Request for Cost Overrun Town Manager Thrasher reviewed the bids as follows: Harvel Utility Construction, $49,700; Chaz Equipment, $74,850; Man -Con, $77,713. Mr. Thrasher advised that Mr. Harvel is asking for an additional $11,316.81, bringing the total to $61,000 or $14,000 under the next bid. He added that the engineers estimate of the project was $59,762, $1,000 less that the total requested by Harvel Utility Construction. J Mayor Koch believed the engineer should have provided information in the bid documents regarding the rock. Mr. Thrasher advised that two previous projects had recently been completed in this area and no rock had been encountered. With this history, everyone felt comfortable with moving ahead without the additional borings. Commissioner Devitt questioned if Mr. Thrasher had carefully reviewed the invoice since there was not much information. Mr. Thrasher replied that he had spent considerable time on this, and the basis for his recommendation is that he knew the contractor was there a certain number Town Commission - Regular Meeting September 14, 2001 Page 3 of days. In reviewing the project with the engineer, it was felt the work would be completed in 3 weeks when actually it was nearly 8 weeks. He pointed that that the original bid was based on an anticipated 3 weeks of work plus materials and equipment. The additional amount requested is approximately 25% of the original bid for an additional 5 weeks work. Mr. Thrasher felt comfortable that the additional amount requested is out of pocket expense only. CMayor Koch commented that he would have been more comfortable with an invoice that had more detail such as the amount for equipment rental and the amount for labor, etc. Commissioner Hopkins stated that while there could have been a better invoice, he had no problem with paying this. He felt Harvel to be a valuable supplier for the Town. He went on to mention that he had voted not to accept County Road because he agreed with Commissioner Orthwein in that considerable funds have been expended for drainage and he felt that we must be very careful with expenditures from hereon. Commissioner Orthwein questioned if it is known what the margin of profit was on the original bid price and Mr. Thrasher advised that Mr. Harvel had stated that it was 20 %. He further advised that he had spent a considerable of time in discussion with Mr. Harvel over $1,000 so he believed the margin of profit to be very close to the 20 %. Commissioner Lynch moved that the invoice be paid in the amount of $11,316.81 and Commissioner Hopkins seconded the motion. Mayor Koch went on record that he was not pleased with the invoice that was presented and he felt the justification to be very thin. Roll Call: Comm. Orthwein; AYE, Comm. Devitt; AYE, Comm. Lynch; AYE, Comm. Hopkins; AYE, and Mayor Koch; AYE. The Commission directed that there must be better billings in the future. b. Old School Road & Polo Drive Town Manager Thrasher reported that there are still a few materials that have not been delivered but that a construction meeting is scheduled for September 17, 2001 at 2:30 P.M. with the engineer and general contractor. From this point the real work begins with digging in the street. c. Electric on Middle Road Mr. Thrasher advised that this past week an agreement has been reached with F.P. &L. on the cost for installation of underground service. He advised that the Town spent $35,000 to bury the cable, place the pad and i` blow string through so all they had to do was hook on and pull their lines through, and they only gave a $3,000 credit, much less than what had been discussed prior to the project. Mr. Thrasher explained that he had argued this at length and finally had only resolved it by finally negotiating at a higher level, resulting in a credit in line with the original discussions. He advised that a check has been mailed to them and it is anticipated that work will commence within a few weeks. 3. Tree Replacement at Police Headquarters The Town Manager reported that he had obtained a proposed landscape plan that takes into consideration the removal of the ficus tree. However, due to the estimate of the cost, the project is on hold. He further Town Commission - Regular Meeting September 14, 2001 Page 4 reported that Commissioner Orthwein has suggested that the Civic Association may be willing to participate in the project but most of the officers of that group are out of town at this time. 4. Code Provisions regulating installation of generators Mr. Thrasher advised that he is bringing this matter forward only for discussion, thought and direction at this time. He reported that the installation of generators is on the rise and this may be a problem. He further reported that under the present code, these are considered Qmechanical equipment and are classified as a minor accessory. As such, their placement is regulated by the accessory setback line established for each zoning district. On the side, this varies from 12' to 15' feet. There have been complaints from adjacent neighbors, and even beyond. As an example, the Town Manager advised that the ground actually quivers at Pelican Lane from one that is legally installed on the north edge of Driftwood. He further advised that these larger ones, while being intended to serve during power outages, are on an automatic timer that periodically turns them on as a maintenance feature. Mr. Thrasher reported that he had checked with other towns and only found one that actually addresses the noise associated with generators with an ordinance. He pointed out that enforcement of this would require noise - measuring equipment and certified personnel to operate it. He asked that the Commissioners think about this and decide if the current setback provision is adequate, or if it should be changed, or if a noise ordinance of some type should be considered. Mayor Koch pointed out that a final decision on this should be in place at the time there is a review of the Code as it is too expensive to make zoning changes piecemeal. 5. Feral Cats - Update Mr. Thrasher reminded that the Town had implemented a program to remove feral cats approximately 6 months previous, which has cost $2,900.00. He pointed out that funds were not budgeted for this, and since a new fiscal year is near, he asked for direction as to whether the Commission wanted to continue with the program. He advised that 25 had been trapped in the past 6 weeks and approximately 60 over the past 6 months. Attorney Randolph offered that this is a small price to pay, as he knows of a similar problem in another town that is completely out of control. Commissioner Hopkins agreed with the Counselor and felt the program should continue at this time. The Commissioners unanimously agreed to continue the program. 6. Code Violation @ 1314 N. Ocean Blvd.- Update Town Manager Thrasher advised that this violation has been corrected and that he has a letter from the contractor that the finger pier has been removed and that the dolphin pilings were removed and relocated to the place where they had been originally. Mr. Thrasher assured that he had made an inspection to make certain the work had been completed. The Commission congratulated the Town Manager on a job well done. Mayor Koch called a recess at 5 P.M. in order that the Public Hearing scheduled for 5:01 P.M. to consider the Tentative Budget for Fiscal Year 2001 -2002 could be held. Mayor Koch reconvened the meeting at 5:15 P.M. Town Commission - Regular Meeting September 14, 2001 Page 5 7. AlA Australian pine tree trimming - Florida Power & Light The Town Manager advised that FP &L had met with him and requested to be permitted to have their contractor clear the tree limbs from around the electric lines on AlA, which is expected to take about 10 days. He reminded that FP &L had not been permitted to do this for several years and a fallen limb caused a lengthy power outage recently. Mr. Thrasher reminded that this contractor is called in on an emergency status when there is a power outage and at that time they do a very radical trimming G that is unnecessary. He then advised he arranged a meeting between Way Hoyt, the Arborist who cares for the pines, and the FP &L representative to discuss how this trimming could be properly done so as to not damage the tree. A procedure was worked out to the satisfaction of both parties and Mr. Hoyt has agreed to supervise the work for $220 per day, which would guarantee from one to three hours of supervision daily. Mr. Thrasher asked for direction as to whether to have Mr. Hoyt do this, let the work be done without supervision or refuse to let any trimming be done. In answer to a question from the Commission as to why Mr. Hoyt does not trim around the wires when he does the rest of the trimming, the Town Manager advised that Mr. Hoyt is not certified to trim around electrical wires, and not many are. Commissioner Orthwein moved and Commissioner Lynch seconded that the Town Manager be authorized to engage Mr. Hoyt to perform the supervision with the funds to be taken from the funds provided for maintenance of the palm trees. Roll Call: Comm. Orthwein; AYE, Comm. Devitt; AYE, Comm. Lynch; AYE, Comm. Hopkins; NAY, explaining that he is concerned about the finances and felt this project has not be properly justified, and Mayor Koch; AYE. B. Architectural Review & Planning Board 1. Meeting Dates a.

Financial Report for August 2001 There were no questions regarding the Financial Report and Commissioner Orthwein moved it be approved as circulated and Commissioner Devitt seconded the motion. All voted AYE at Roll Call. Mr. Thrasher advised he has an augmented report addressing the budget status of the Town as of September 13, 2001, if the Commission would like to have it presented. Mayor Koch directed the Town Manager to continue with it. The Town Manager reported that as of September 14, 2001 the Town has $97,000 of revenues over expenditures, including the budgeted contingency. He stated that the Town has expended $352,000 on various projects that were not budgeted for and there is still $97,000 left in Town Commission - Regular Meeting September 14, 2001 Page 6 the revenues. He enumerated several more expenditures to be made from this budget but felt it may not be necessary to use any of the Fund Balance, which he thought was very good, and Commissioners Hopkins and Orthwein agreed.
