Mr. Thrasher said the Overhead Utility Undergrounding Project is
proceeding on schedule and the next phase is to gather survey
Regular Meeting and Public Hearing
Town Commission - July 9, 2010 Page 2
information. He said the Commission has already appropriated a
sufficient amount of money for the scope of work and the cost, but
because consultants will be in Town surveying, he wanted the Commission
to be aware in the event they received phone calls from inquiring
residents. Mr. Thrasher said if the Commission chooses to not proceed
with the project, they could shut it down now, but he recommends going
forward with the surveying and there is no need for an additional
O appropriation of funds at this time. There was no direction from the
Commission to shut down the project.

Clerk Taylor confirmed that the Architectural Review & Planning Board
will be meeting on July 22nd. Commissioner Wheeler asked if applications
were still slow. Clerk Taylor said there were two applications for the
July meeting, one remodel and one new home.
Mayor Koch mentioned the need for an alternate member on the
Architectural Review & Planning Board. Clerk Taylor said it is on this
agenda under "Items for Commission Action." Mayor Koch stated that Bill
Coleman, who lives in Gulf Stream, has expressed interest and asked if
anyone knew of him. Vice -Mayor Orthwein said Mr. Coleman was in real
estate and is retired. Mayor Koch asked the Commissioners if they
wanted to appoint Mr. Coleman or someone else at this time or wait until
the next meeting. Commissioner Anderson asked about his letter of
interest and Mayor Koch said Mr. Coleman mailed the letter to the Town.
Mayor Koch said it will be on the agenda for the next meeting.
C. Finance Director
1. Financial Report for June 2010
Mr. Thrasher asked that the Financial Report for June 2010 be approved
as submitted. commissioner Anderson moved and Commissioner Wheeler
seconded to approve the Financial Report for June 2010. There was no
discussion. All voted AYE.
D. Police Chief
1. Activity for June 2010
Chief Ward said there had been a residential burglary in the core area
and they matched fingerprints lifted from the scene to the subject. A
warrant was issued for his arrest and he was arrested by the Lauderhill
Police Department. Chief Ward said the subject had a history of eight
prior burglaries. Commissioner Anderson mentioned the violation of a
dog. Chief Ward said it has always been a problem because most of such
violations fall under a Town Ordinance violation and were not properly
identified. He said these violations show up now because they changed
the designation for them. There were no further questions and the
Activity Report for June 2010 was accepted as submitted.

VIII. Items for Commission Action.
A. Ordinance No. 010 -2; AN ORDINANCE OF THE TOWN COMMISSION OF
THE TOWN OF GULF STREAM, PALM BEACH COUNTY, FLORIDA, AMENDING
THE TOWN'S CODE OF ORDINANCES, AT SECTION 70 -187, TO PROVIDE
FOR THE REQUIRED SCREENING OF FENCES FROM PUBLIC AND PRIVATE
ROADWAYS AND TO PROHIBIT SPECIFIC TYPES OF FENCING; AMENDING,
AT SECTION 71 -4, SITE DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS FOR THE GULF
STREAM DESIGN MANUAL FOR RM WEST AND RM EAST MULTIPLE- FAMILY
RESIDENTIAL DISTRICTS, TO INCLUDE NEW LOT COVERAGE AND
BUILDING SEPARATION REQUIREMENTS; AMENDING, AT SECTION 71 -7,
MULTIPLE- FAMILY RESIDENTIAL DESIGN GUIDELINES, TO INCLUDE
REQUIREMENTS FOR FENCES; PROVIDING FOR SEVERABILITY;
PROVIDING FOR REPEAL OF ORDINANCES IN CONFLICT; PROVIDING FOR
CODIFICATION; PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE. (1st reading)
Clerk Taylor read the Ordinance in title, stating that this Ordinance is
being presented for 1st reading this 9th day of July, 2010. She said
that multi - family separation and lot coverage are housekeeping matters,
explaining that when the Multi - Family Code was revised, lot coverage
maximums and building separation requirements were not included. This
Ordinance moves forward the 30% lot coverage maximums and 15 -foot
building separation requirements which existed in the old Multi - Family
Code.
Commissioner Wheeler asked if there are current structures that violate
this. Clerk Taylor said there are none that were not completed before.
Vice -Mayor Orthwein inquired about screening chain -link fence with
plantings and asked if chain -link fencing along the Intracoastal
Waterway must be screened. Mr. Thrasher said they must be screened from
view. He said the Town is not always aware of the work being done
behind a property and if a contractor does not apply for a permit for
the work the Town cannot inform them of the requirements. He explained
that when an application for a permit is submitted which triggers this
requirement, the application is stamped indicating that the chain -link
fence must be screened from view. Mr. Thrasher said once that is done
and a permit is issued, the Town is able to administer the Code as
written. Vice -Mayor Orthwein said it seems some contractors do not want
to apply for permits which can be a problem. Mr. Thrasher said they
need to be permitted and the Police Department is very helpful in these
matters.
Vice -Mayor Orthwein moved

and Commissioner Anderson seconded to adopt
reading. There was no further discussion.
Mr. Thrasher asked the Mayor to consider declaring a Zoning in Progress
with this Ordinance and Mayor Koch agreed. Vice -Mayor Orthwein moved
and Commissioner Anderson seconded to declare a Zoning in Progress.
There was no further discussion. All voted AYE.
B. Appointment of 1 ARPB Member.
Clerk Taylor asked Commissioner Anderson if she spoke with ARPB
Alternate Member, Malcolm Murphy, about moving up to a Regular Member.
Commissioner Anderson said she did speak with Mr. Murphy and he agreed
Regular Meeting and Public Hearing
Town Commission - July 9, 2010 Page 4
to serve as a Regular Member. Commissioner Anderson moved and
Commissioner Wheeler seconded to move Alternate Member, Malcolm Murphy,
to Regular Member status on the Architectural Review & Planning Board.
There was no further discussion. All voted AYE. Clerk Taylor said she
would include the appointment of an Alternate Member on the next ARPB
meeting agenda.
C. Presentation of Proposed Budget for Fiscal Year 2010 -2011
C, 1. Budget Consideration
Mr. Thrasher said that pursuant to the new TRIM requirements, staff will
ask for specific motions concerning the proposed budget for FY 2010-
2011. He highlighted some of the basics that are incorporated into the
proposed budget, stating that the millage rate is the same as the last
two years, which is 2.8655, and the rollback rate for this year is
3.0374. He said this budget includes a 1.7% adjustment in salaries,
which is not a cost of living or CPI increase. Mr. Thrasher said this
year's CPI is 3.2 %, making up the difference from last year's budget
wherein the CPI was a negative 1.5% with no deduction in salaries. He
said this year's Fire Contract with the City of Delray Beach has
increased by $14,350, which is a 5% increase over last year's Fire
contact.
Mr. Thrasher said the new State Revenue Sharing figures are not yet
available, but those numbers are estimated in this budget. He explained
that State legislators did away with the department responsible for
providing this information and it has become the responsibility of the
Florida Department of Revenue (FDOR). Mr. Thrasher said another large
component that is yet to be determined is insurance costs, but estimates
have been included in the proposed budget.
Mr. Thrasher said the Town is required to determine the millage rate for
presentation to the Tax Collector on Form DR -420. He said the figure we
present should be the maximum amount of millage that will be considered
and, once established, it can be decreased, but not increased. He said
Form DR -420 attached to the proposed budget indicates the current rolled
back rate is 3.0374 and the proposed millage rate is 3.0374, but he will
recommend submitting a proposed millage rate of 2.8655, which is the
millage rate for the current year.
Mayor Koch questioned part -time and overtime salaries totaling $40,000
for the Police Department and asked how the Department uses a part -time
officer. Mr. Thrasher said David Ginsberg, who is our Code Enforcement
Officer, works
part -time, he is paid an hourly rate and the Town is very
lucky to have him. He said Officer Ginsberg retired from another post,
does not want to work full time and is able to cover the functions of a
Code Enforcement Officer on a part -time basis. Chief Ward said the
part -time officer is also utilized to cover patrol for officers on
vacation or sick leave at a much lower rate of pay than a full -time
officer. Mr. Thrasher said that Overtime is another line item.
Mr. Thrasher said it is not the intent of the proposed budget to
increase the millage rate. He recommends the Town submit a 2.8655
millage rate. Mr. Thrasher explained that the rate we submit will be
Regular Meeting and Public Hearing
Town Commission - July 9, 2010 Page 5
advertised, the numbers will be calculated based on that millage rate
and that is what will be sent out to the residents. He said we budgeted
for a deficit spending for the current year, taking money out of the
fund balance, which was a planned event; however, last year the affect
of fund balance was a positive amount of approximately $150,000. He
said in the current year we see utility service taxes coming in which
were not budgeted for and should be a surplus, but it is included in the
proposed budget. Mr. Thrasher said the counter effect to that are the
costs incurred for the consultants in the undergrounding project, which
is ongoing, and he believes the plusses and minuses of the current year
will bring us to zero and right on target. He said this budget shows a
certain deficit spending of $75,000 and it will be the first year we
will have to take money out of the fund balance. Mr. Thrasher said the
fund balance is at a very healthy number based on all of the activities
over the last two years, including the water main repair which was paid
for out of the General Fund.
Commissioner Wheeler said he expects staff to keep track of the
consultant fees for the undergrounding project and when there is a
mechanism in place to pay for the project, either by special assessment,
taxes, etc., those costs will be recovered in those payments. He
commended Mr. Thrasher for recommending the same millage rate as the
previous year, but said the analysis shows a potential use of about
$75,000 of our funds next year which could result in a deficit.
Commissioner Wheeler asked Mr. Thrasher to give the Commission some
ideas to find $75,000 worth of line item savings in the budget so we do
not run in a deficit, and he asked him to explain the impact it would
have on services in our community if we choose to make some cuts.
Commissioner Wheeler said that other than the potential for a $75,000
deficit, he is pleased with the proposed budget and the fact that Mr.
Thrasher netted the CPI over two years.
Mr. Thrasher said he does not look at just one year and he will be
looking at decreased taxable values over the next two years, which is
going to create a bigger challenge and it appears that we would not
maintain the same millage rate, but rather increase the millage rate by
a simple majority vote. He said things are changing, but until taxable
values stabilize over the next two years, and Gulf Stream may change
before other municipalities, the budget discussion may not be as
pleasant next year. Commissioner Wheeler said he was led to believe
there were signs of stability, particularly in prices in Gulf Stream,
suggesting Gulf Stream would not continue to see decreases in value.
Vice -Mayor Orthwein said she feels Gulf Stream has always been stable,
meaning that homes are not going into foreclosure, but there are some
really good deals around if you have the money. Mayor Koch commented
that there is a lot of property for sale in Gulf Stream. Commissioner
Wheeler asked if the prices were down another 10% this year over last
year. Mr. Thrasher said it is only a portion of the composite of things
that affect the Property Appraiser's calculations. Commissioner Wheeler
asked if there are any signs of having bottomed out in Gulf Stream. Mr.
Thrasher said no.

Town Commission - July 9, 2010 Page 6
2. 2009 -2010 Millage Rate
Mr. Thrasher restated last year's millage rate was 2.8655 and requested
a motion to confirm the millage rate for FY 2009 -2010 was actually
2.8655. Vice -Mayor Orthwein moved and Commissioner Wheeler seconded the
motion to confirm that 2.8655 was the millage rate for FY 2009 -2010.
There was no further discussion. All voted AYE.
3. Proposed Millage for Fiscal Year 2010 -2011
Mr. Thrasher requested a motion that the proposed millage rate for FY
2010 -2011 is 2.8655, which will be presented to the Tax Collector on
Form DR -420. Vice -Mayor Orthwein moved and Commissioner Anderson
seconded the motion that the proposed millage rate for FY 2010 -2011 is
2.8655. There was no further discussion. All voted AYE.
4. Certification of Rolled Back Millage Rate
Mr. Thrasher requested a motion to certify that the Rolled Back Millage
Rate for FY 2010 -2011 is 3.0374. Vice -Mayor Orthwein moved and
Commissioner Anderson seconded the motion certifying the FY 2010 -2011
Rolled Back Millage Rate is 3.0374. There was no further discussion.
All voted AYE.
Clerk Taylor said the Commission needs to establish the dates of the two
public hearings which are mandatory in September for the adoption of the
FY 2010/2011 Budget. She said she eliminated the dates chosen by Palm
Beach County and the School Board and there are two tentative dates for
the Town to consider. Clerk Taylor said the Commission could hold the
1st public hearing on September 10th which is the regular Commission
Meeting date, changing the regular meeting time to 4:00 P.M. and follow
with a Tentative Budget Hearing at 5:01 P.M. She said the 2nd public
hearing could be scheduled for either Tuesday, September 21st or
Wednesday, September 22nd at 5:01 P.M. It was the consensus of the
Commissioners that Tuesday, September 21st was the preferred date.
5. Date of First Public Hearing- Tentative Budget Adoption
Commissioner Wheeler moved and Vice -Mayor Orthwein seconded to hold the
first public hearing on September 10, 2010 which is the Regular Meeting
date, changing the time of the Regular Meeting to 4:00 P.M. and follow
with a tentative budget hearing at 5:01 P.M. There was no further
discussion. All voted AYE.
6. Date of Second Public Hearing -Final Budget Adoption
Commissioner Wheeler moved and Vice -Mayor Orthwein seconded to hold the
second public hearing for the adoption of the FY 2010/2011 Budget for
September 21, 2010 at 5:01 P.M. There was no further discussion. All
voted AYE.
D. Items by Mayor & Commissioners
Commissioner Wheeler asked if there was anything concerning annexation
that required Commission action at this time. Mayor Koch said there was
nothing at this time, but there has been progress and staff is gathering
information concerning the developer's plans and how Palm Beach County
is handling this. He said Robert Ganger of the Florida Coalition for
Preservation has been active in this matter.
Mr. Ganger requested to comment for the record. He said the developer
will have an opportunity to present his site plan to the Development
Review Officer at the July 14th Palm Beach County Planning & Zoning
Regular Meeting and Public Hearing
Town Commission - July 9, 2010 Page 7
Review Board meeting. There have been a number of concerns raised by
staff and the public on the plan as submitted and there are technical
errors and many corrections to be made. Mr. Ganger said that July 12th
is the deadline date to get on the meeting agenda, but the developer may
be considering further modifications which will delay his presentation
by another month. He said he hopes Gulf Stream, the Coalition and
residents living in the neighborhood will have an opportunity to review
any modifications. Mr. Ganger said that residents in the neighborhood
have seen plans previously rejected, but have not yet seen the most
recent plans.
Mr. Michael Gustafson, who a full time resident at Ballantrae and a
member of their Board, stated that the residents did have an opportunity
to see the most current Sea Horse plans. He said about three years ago,
the owner /developer of the Sea Horse property presented a plan for a 3-
story luxury version of what was previously there. The height was about
30 -40 feet with 32 units, which was okay, but because the structure was
U- shaped with the arms stretched east and west, it disrupted their ocean
view. The developer filed bankruptcy and Kolter Group took over.
Kolter presented a unique plan for a V- shaped structure with the open V
facing AlA. The structure maintained a pretty good view, but it was too
high. The original plan was for a 7 -story structure, but the final
version of the plan to date is for a 5 -story building on the AlA side
and a 6 -story building on the remainder of the V. Kolter Group has
stated that anything lower would require them to redesign the apartments
and make the building wider which would result in smaller setbacks than
already exist on the north and south sides. Mr. Gustafson said the
residents asked Kolter if they will be prepared to meet with the Palm
Beach County Planning & Zoning Board on July 14th and Kolter did not know
for sure; however, they appeared confident and he believes if Kolter
Group does meet with the County they will most likely be approved
because everything they have done is in accordance with the County's
codes, regulations and ordinances. He added that there only minor
errors that could easily be rectified as time progresses, even after
approval. He said not a single owner at Ballantrae has suggested
anything but annexation into Gulf Stream and they will stay involved and
work together with the Town. He understands that the proposed height of
the Sea Horse project may still be too high for Gulf Stream, which could
result in a negative attitude toward annexation, but time will tell.
Mayor Koch said there is considerable concern over the creation of high
Cj structures along the coastal areas as they are undesirable to our
residents and they present safety issues. He said both Gulf Stream and
the Coalition are concerned with the development of the Sea Horse and
annexation. Mr. Ganger said Mr. Gustafson has spent many hours keeping
current on the progress of the Sea Horse and keeping residents informed.
He said the original Sea Horse had 23 residential units and the current
plan calls for 34 units, but if they kept the same footprint and removed
one story, it would bring the number of units to 28, which will be more
luxurious than the original units. Mr. Ganger said he believes the
quality of the project in terms of the design, materials and location
could generate almost as much revenue as 34 units located in either the
County Pocket or Boynton Beach. Mayor Koch said Kolter owns property on
Regular Meeting and Public Hearing

the west side of A1A where they could add units and it would be in
keeping with the Gulf Stream design. Mr. Ganger said he believes Kolter
will go ahead and get the permit, but the Coalition will not give up and
they plan to attend the July 14th meeting; however, they are not
permitted to comment. He said he will report back to the Commission.
IX. Public. There were no public comments.
X. Adjournment. Commissioner Wheeler moved and vice -Mayor Orthwein
