(P.O.P. 636912) ADOPTED 12-21-99 MOTION to adopt the resolution. Motion by Commissioner Masilotti and seconded by Commissioner Marcus. PUBLIC COMMENT: Joe S. Lewis III questioned the fairness of using the front footage method in determining costs to homeowners because it resulted in homeowners on half-acre lots being assessed the same amount as homeowners with one-acre lots. Steve McGrew from the Water Utilities Engineering Division explained that the front footage method was the usual method of doing special assessments. He added that the street was a standard one with no curves or culs-de-sac, and while the lots varied in depth, they were all suitable for construction.

(AMENDS ORDINANCE 88-8) (P.O.P. 638218) ADOPTED 12-21-99 MOTION to adopt the ordinance. Motion by Commissioner Masilotti and seconded by Commissioner Aaronson. Commissioner Roberts commented that residents of several gated communities had communicated their concerns to her regarding excluding their communities from the ordinance. She noted that although some of the more affluent communities could afford to hire trained security personnel, many of the less prosperous neighborhoods were forced to hire untrained personnel to simply monitor the gates. Ms. Roberts asked that any reference to excluding gated communities be taken out of the ordinance. Commissioner Masilotti questioned staff regarding dual zone verification. Staff assured him that the Sheriff's Office would respond to first alerts. Commissioner Roberts stated that the alarm companies were apparently telling their customers that their fees were going up as a result of this ordinance and that the level of care offered by the Sheriff's Office would decline. She said it had been her understanding that unless the alarm companies were to have an excess of false alarms, there would be no need to raise fees because the companies would not be charged a fine. Sheriff's Office Director of Administration Billy Riggs assured her that her understanding was correct. PUBLIC COMMENT: Acreage resident George Bartolome, Bernie Fox, Vice-President of Master Security Don Freund, William Gustafson, representative of Quality Security Protection System Joe Holfelner, Bob Leone, General Manager of Brinks Home Security Paul Lubin, legal counsel for Alarm Association of Florida Mark Neuberger, President of Alarm Association of Florida Roy Pollack, Robert Worthy, and Mellon Security President Bill Zeller all spoke in opposition to the ordinance. Their points follow: Imposing payment of yearly renewal fees, even if no responses were made during the year, would be unfair. The ordinance would drive alarm companies out of business. The reduced level of competition would cause monitoring rates to rise. Levying fines would cause many customers to drop their security services. Industry was allowed little input into the mechanical work-up and compilation procedures of the ordinance. Allowing customers one false alarm without charge while penalizing the alarm companies for all false alarms would be unfair. The no dispatch after six false alarms rule would create a burglar-friendly environment. Customers who had worked to reduce their false alarm rate should not be penalized for those who had not. (CLERK'S NOTE: Commissioner Marcus left the meeting.) Commissioner Newell inquired whether the major concern of industry was that the alarm companies would become the billing source of fees generated by the ordinance. He suggested that either the County Attorney's office or the Sheriff's Office provide a written explanation of the ordinance to be given to alarm companies for use in mailings to their customers. Commissioner Aaronson pointed out that the ordinance would relieve 400 sheriff's deputies to respond to true emergencies. He asserted that the burden was on the Sheriff's Office to ensure that the plan worked. Commissioner Masilotti asked why the penalties for false alarms could not be raised as a deterrent to alarm companies with excessive false alarm rates instead of implementing the rule of no dispatch after six false alarms. Staff disclosed that many alarm companies can afford to pay fines and actually budget for them, so the fines did not provide an economic incentive as hoped. Mr. Masilotti maintained that the words "no response" should be taken out of the ordinance. Staff offered to change the terminology to read that after six false alarms, the Sheriff's Office would provide "limited response" to panic and hold-up alarms only.
Commissioner Roberts expressed concern about the policy of limiting response after six false alarms, and she asked that customers be notified in writing in advance of the rule's being applied. Staff was in agreement and volunteered that users would be provided with written notice on every invoice. Criminal Justice Commission Chairman Roy Davidson commented that there were private sector alternatives, particularly for commercial enterprises, for no-response situations including hiring a private response company and using the 911 response option. He reported that in numerous communities across the country local law enforcement agencies were getting out of the response business altogether, and that the alarm companies were being told not to look to the public sector to subsidize their business operations. UPON CALL FOR A VOTE, the motion carried 6-0. Commissioner Marcus absent.
Commissioner Masilotti recommended an automatic review of the ordinance in six months to allow industry representatives to provide input. (CLERK'S NOTE: Commissioner McCarty left the meeting.) MOTION to have an automatic review in six months with specific details brought forward by industry in regard to enhancing the ordinance to protect the residents. Motion by Commissioner Masilotti and seconded by Commissioner Roberts. Commissioner Roberts pointed out that allowing input does not necessarily mean that the offered suggestions and ideas would be adopted or brought forward, but rather that the input would be considered and discussed. Commissioner Masilotti said he wanted industry's suggestions in writing. UPON CALL FOR A VOTE, the motion carried 5-0. Commissioners McCarty and Marcus absent. 5.J. CRIMINAL JUSTICE COMMISSION TIME CERTAIN - 10:30 A.M. 5.J.2. RECEIVE AND FILE THE 1999 ANNUAL REPORT OF THE CRIMINAL JUSTICE COMMISSION.

RESOLUTION R-99-2404 RESOLUTION DECLARING THE NEED FOR ADDITIONAL STATE AND FEDERAL ASSISTANCE TO SUPPORT AGRICULTURAL AND HORTICULTURAL PLANT NURSERY INDUSTRIES IN THE AFTERMATH OF HURRICANE IRENE. ADOPTED 12-21-99 MOTION to adopt the resolution. Motion by Commissioner Masilotti and seconded by Commissioner Roberts. Staff commented that the resolution would be taken before the Congressional Delegation in an effort to initiate a change and gain assistance for the nursery industries through the 2000 program because the insurance program as presently structured was not providing a proper safety net for them. Commissioner Roberts said that Hurricane Irene occurred in the 2000 funding year and emergency funds should be made available now when they were needed most. Commissioner Newell agreed and said that some businesses may fail for lack of timely assistance. Commissioner Aaronson added that the issue should be one of the Board's top priorities when meeting with the Legislative Delegation. UPON CALL FOR A VOTE the motion carried 5-0. Commissioners McCarty and Marcus absent. 4.G.

Prior to certification of the rezoning application by the DRC (Development Review Committee), the applicant shall submit, with the Palm Beach County Health Department, a phase I and II environmental audit of the property, signed and sealed by a Professional Engineer or Professional Geologist registered in Florida. MOTION to adopt an ordinance with condition amending the 1989 Comprehensive Plan by amending the Future Land Use Atlas for the Hooker Highway parcel. Motion by Commissioner Masilotti and seconded by Commissioner Roberts. SECOND WITHDRAWN Commissioner Aaronson seconded the motion. Commissioner Masilotti inquired whether anything could be built on the property before an environmental audit was done. Planning Director Frank M. Duke explained that before construction could commence, rezoning would have to be requested which would trigger the Environmental Protection Agency's audit. Commissioner Roberts asked what type of request for rezoning would trigger the audit. Mr. Duke explained that it would be a condition of the adopting ordinance that any proposal for development would activate the audit. Ms. Roberts said she was still uncomfortable with the ordinance and would vote against the motion. PUBLIC COMMENT: None UPON CALL FOR A VOTE, the motion carried 3-2.
