ADDITIONS, DELETIONS, SUBSTITUTIONS County Administrator Weisman noted the Agenda changes as follows: PAGE ITEM 27 3AA-1 REVISED MOTION & TITLE: Staff
recommends a motion to 29 4F ADD-ON: Proclamation declaring the week of June 7- 13, 1999 as "National Homeownership Week". (Sponsored by Commissioner Lee) 32 6B-3 REVISED SUMMARY: The Board of County
Commissioners has budgeted $500,000 for acquisition of art to be displayed in the Palm
Beach County Courthouse and its satellites. This resolution establishes the County
Committee for Courthouse Art (Committee), which will be responsible for advising the Board
as to the selection, acquisition, and placement of works of art in and immediately outside
the courthouses. The Committee will consist of 33 6C-2 REVISED SUMMARY: The County costs for
providing Land Development Division related services to the public have increased
significantly over the last several years while the service has deceased. In order
to bring the user fees into conformance with present day work activity costs and provide a
Over $200,000 in additional fees is expected from these increases. This revision will upgrade the existing user fees to meet all current day objectives. We believe that we have industry support for these actions. Countywide (ME) (Eng) 35 6D-4 TIME CERTAIN 2:15 P.M. & REVISED TITLE & SUMMARY: Staff recommends motion to approve: the following for the proposed Convention Center Project: A) The Interlocal Agreement with Staff's proposed changes for resubmittal to the City for its approval contingent upon CityPlace's approval of the revised CityPlace Agreement. B) That the design continues and provides for a Convention Center at the now estimated total cost of $72,355,144 (hard construction cost - $54,195,307 - project soft cost - $11,055,676 - project contingency - $7,104,161). The cost of the Convention Center includes a 100,000 square foot exhibition hall, a 25,000 square foot ballroom and 12 meeting rooms with a total of 16,570 square feet. Attached is the breakdown of space and square footage regarding that space. C) The projected general schedule for the design and construction of the Convention Center. D) The separate CityPlace agreement regarding the hotel property with proposed changes for resubmittal to CityPlace for approval contingent upon the City's approval of the revised Interlocal Agreement. E) The amended Site Plan with County's Tract 7 modifications. SUMMARY: The City has forwarded to the Board an Amended Site Plan and Interlocal Agreement wherein the City has offered to convey to the County a site for a Convention Center consisting of a total of 19.32 acres. The Amendment to the Site Plan was due to a clarification regarding the townhouse buffer at new M Street and Florida Avenue depicted as Tract 7 on the site plan. The County staff agreed to the configuration of Tract 7, however the City retained control of this tract. This tract is insignificant to the townhouse buffer but significant to the entrance of the Convention Center. This tract should be County owned subject to the agreed upon restrictions. Regarding pending litigation and other Interlocal Agreement issues, a review has been prepared by the County Attorney's Office and is attached to this item. County staff is concerned that the title insurance is inadequate at a $5M coverage especially in light of the Property Appraiser's value of the property at $11M and title insurance law which requires the insurance to equal the fair market value of the property. Though a claim against the property seems remote, the possibility still exists. County staff had originally agreed to a Special Warranty Deed with Right of Reverter and Restrictive Covenant and Easement. Staff is recommending the Board require a General Warranty Deed as well as other revisions to protect the County's interest. Countywide (GPS) (FD&O) 36 6D-5 TIME CERTAIN 2:15 P.M.: A) Amendment No. 5, in the amount of $1,700,000 to Contract with STH Architectural Group, Inc., and Thompson, Ventulett, Stainback & Associates, Inc., Architects (STH/TVS) for continuing design services for the Convention Center Program; and B) Budget Transfer of $2,405,293 from TDC 4th Cent Reserves to fund the Amendment. (FD&O) PAGE ITEM 36 6D-6 TIME CERTAIN 2:15 P.M.: Amendment No. 1, to the Contract with O'Brien Kreitzberg, Inc. (R98-194D) in the amount of $705,293 for program management services through the completion of the design phase in conjunction with the Convention Center Project. (FD&O) 41 6L-1 ADD-ON: Staff seeks direction regarding implementation of a Special Master system, in lieu of the present Code Enforcement Board. SUMMARY: Code violations are currently presented to the County's 7-member Code Enforcement Board.

She did not believe that the Historical Society was capable of the project and suggested it be submitted for request for proposals. Another extension allowed for more deterioration and greater repair expenses. Commissioner Masilotti requested the Board receive updates on the Historical Society's progress.

PUBLIC COMMENT: Stella Rossi, representative for the board of the Coalition for Wilderness Islands, stated concern with Sections 501 and 505 of the resolution. She asked how long would it take for development of a master plan before any offers on land could be made. The Board of County Commissioners needed to assure there would be acquisition of environmentally sensitive lands from the $150 Million Land Acquisition for Conservation Purposes bond, she said. Environmental Resources Management Director Richard Walesky commented that:
County Administrator Weisman said Section 504 would be changed to Section D. AMENDED MOTION to change Section 504 to Section D and to renumber Sections 505-508 accordingly. The maker and seconder agreed. Joanne Davis submitted and reviewed information regarding potential matching funds for the Conservation Land Acquisition Program. Commissioner Masilotti recommended staff submit at the next regular meeting, a resolution requesting support from the Legislative Delegation for potential matching funds as suggested by Ms. Davis. He asked if the bond referendum contained language that the money would be spent specifically for environmentally sensitive lands. Mr. Walesky stated the bond language stipulated that the $150 million could be spent for a variety of things. It had been discussed at great length by the Board to use $50 million for sensitive lands and $100 million for the Agricultural Reserve. There was a decision not to make that language a part of the legal document, he said. The Board informally agreed to a guarantee for the use of $50 million for sensitive lands and $100 million for the Agricultural Reserve. UPON CALL FOR A VOTE, the motion carried 7-0. 6.F.

Assistant County Administrator Vince Bonvento said staff had been working through a transitional period with Intelitran, a nationally recognized paratransit management firm that had been working for the County approximately 30 days. Staff had been working closely with the agencies and Intelitran to resolve scheduling problems. Part of the problem seemed to be with the software of their scheduling program that had not worked as effectively for the County as it had for others nationwide. Commissioner Aaronson reported of numerous complaints he has received. He asked staff to ensure that Ambulette of the Palm Beaches and Palm Beach Transportation worked together without one trying to sabotage the other. Mr. Bonvento replied that staff had been working very closely with both companies. UPON CALL FOR A VOTE, the motion carried 7-0. 6.I.2. a.

APPROVED 6-8-99 MOTION to approve on preliminary reading and advertise for public hearing on July 27, 1999, at 9:30 a.m. Motion by Commissioner McCarty and seconded by Commissioner Marcus. Commissioner Masilotti questioned the dispersal of gasoline tax funds. Staff commented that impact fee revenues collected must be expended in the same zones from which they were collected and for approved growth-related projects. County Administrator Weisman advised that a budget workshop would be the proper forum to address Commissioner Masilotti's concern. Commissioner McCarty noted there had been prior discussion about the possibility of changing impact fee zones. Staff stated it was currently conducting a biannual review of the impact fee system and would include recommendations for restructuring of the benefit zones. The review was expected to be completed sometime in the year 2000. Commissioner Roberts suggested the zones of influence be changed to better facilitate the uses, particularly in the western and northern areas. She noted that 50 percent of the gasoline tax was dedicated to roads and the remainder to transit. County Administrator Weisman suggested for a future budget workshop, the Board consider taking $7 million out of the gas tax. The Board could discuss how the funds would be dispersed at that time or make that determination at a later date. Commissioner Marcus said that $7 million had been identified this year from a road project postponed for one year. There was previous discussion on the increase and shifting around of impact fees and gas tax dollars. The Board had considered spending $1 million per district for beautification. It was her understanding the dispersal of those funds would be discussed on July 6. County Engineer Webb stated an exact date for discussion of the dispersal of the funds had not been determined. Staff would supply options and a modified Five-Year Road Program reflecting the impact fee increases and the consequences for consideration on July 6. Commissioner McCarty asked that staff's recommendations for the spending of the $7 million be patterned after the Pathway Program, whose projects are done according to necessity. UPON CALL FOR A VOTE, the motion carried 7-0. 6.K.2. a. ACCEPT RECOMMENDATIONS OF THE OCCUPATIONAL LICENSE TAX RATE REVIEW COMMITTEE RELATING TO AMENDMENTS TO THE OCCUPATIONAL LICENSE TAX ORDINANCE. APPROVED 6-8-99 b. PRELIMINARY READING AND ADVERTISE FOR PUBLIC HEARING ON JULY 13, 1999, AT 9:30 A.M., AN ORDINANCE AMENDING ORDINANCE 72-7, AS AMENDED, THE OCCUPATIONAL LICENSING ORDINANCE, AMENDING SECTION 17-25, PENALTY FOR LATE PAYMENT; SECTION 17-44, FARM, GROVE, HORTICULTURAL, FLORICULTURAL, TROPICAL PISCICULTURAL, AND TROPICAL FISH FARM PRODUCTS; SECTION 17-63, HOTELS, APARTMENT HOUSE, MOTELS, ETC.; SECTION 17-91, VENDING MACHINES; SECTION 17-66, TRAVELING MEDICINE SHOWS; AND SECTION 17-69, DANCE HALLS, VARIETY EXHIBITIONS. APPROVED 6-8-99 MOTION to approve the recommendations and approve on preliminary reading and advertise for public hearing on July 13, 1999, at 9:30 a.m. Motion by Commissioner McCarty and seconded by Commissioner Newell. Commissioner Newell asked that two items be added: (1) Any false information supplied would be grounds for revocation of an occupational license. (2) Monies collected would be used for the Code Enforcement Division to ensure appropriate issuance of occupational licenses and inspection of businesses. Staff commented that $70,000 in additional revenue would be generated. It was not appropriate to state within the ordinance what the monies would be spent for. Code Enforcement Director Terry Verner clarified that Code Enforcement was not the principal enforcement entity for occupational licenses. The Tax Collector's Occupational License Department handled that. A Code Enforcement representative, while at a location for reasons under its jurisdiction, would note any occupational license discrepancies and report them to the Tax Collector's Occupational License Department. Commissioner Roberts asked how could the County ensure its requirements were met when the Occupational License Department checked to see if a business had a license, but not whether the business operated accordingly. Occupational License Manager Pat Post commented his office ensured that a license applied for was appropriate for the business to be conducted. In some instances businesses required a state license as well as County. Until they obtained a state license, the Tax Collector was precluded from issuing a license. Mr. Verner said his office would work more closely with the Occupational License Department to address the Board's concerns. The Occupational License Department would notify the Code Enforcement Division if there were questions as to a business operating inappropriately. The Code Enforcement Division would notify the Occupational License Department if a business was operating without a license. Commissioner Roberts asked who checked on a business after it had been issued a license to ensure it operated accordingly. Sherry Lenox, representative for Occupational License Department, explained that when a license was issued, her office did not immediately go to the business location to verify the business operated accordingly. Mr. Verner added that his office operated on a complaint basis. If the Board desired, staff would consider initiation of a follow-up inspection program. Staff, however, could not guarantee an annual inspection. The Occupational License Department would notify the Code Enforcement Division of a license issued in a certain category. Three or four months later, the Code Enforcement Division would verify if the business was operating accordingly. Commissioner Aaronson noted that during previous discussion, it had been determined there would be approximately $99,000 in application fees that would be turned over to the Code Enforcement Division for an additional person to address the occupational license enforcement issues. That currently was not the case, he said. (CLERK'S NOTE: Commissioner Aaronson left the meeting.) Mr. Post said that the Occupational License Department regularly visited businesses to verify if they were complying with occupational license requirements. There were approximately 70,000 licenses issued Countywide. UPON CALL FOR A VOTE, the motion carried 6-0. Commissioner Aaronson absent. 6.L. PLANNING, ZONING AND BUILDING 6.L.1. See Pages 50-52. 6.J.
