Mr. Parker VILLAGE COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES June 11, 1998 PAGE 10 requested three waivers, including a 3, wide landscape strip and two canopy trees and three palm trees in lieu of seven canopy trees; and 11% minimum gross parking area landscaped in lieu of 15t. Use of the land was discussed. Mr. Ladd explained that the property could still be used for a restaurant but only one that had no more than 88 seats because parking had been reduced with the non-renewal of a leased parking area from the Darner Trust. Mr. Ladd reported Ms. Fagan had tried to purchase land from the Darner Trust, which had not happened, and the landscaping was being suhmitted for approval not knowing the future use of the property.

E) Consideration of Proposed Landscape Plan for Country Club Drive. Gary Preston and Steve Parker, Parker-Yanette Design Group, Landscape Architect. VILLAGE COUNCIL- MEETING MINUTES June 11, 1998 PAGE 11 Public Works and Recreation Director Gary Preston provided an overview of the landscape plan, which would be phased over three years, and explained that trees could be planted very close to the roadway and still meet DOT standards, that in the future the trees would create a nice canopy effect, and that a total of 270 live oaks would be planted in this project. The project would start at the county line and move towards Tequesta Circle because ENCON already had their sewer lines in at that location. Steve parker, Landscape Architect, reviewed color graphics of the project, beginning with four Royal Poinciana trees to be placed at the intersection of Tequesta Drive and Country Club Drive to tie into those at the north end of the streetscape, and continuing along Country Club with live oaks and adding palms to those existing to make groupings of palms. At the north end of the project, oaks would stop at the median where there were existing oaks and cabbage palms. Plant material would be added to tie the beds together and groundcover would be added. Mr. Parker explained that the. Public Works Committee had commented that the project did not meet native plant requirements in Ordinance 377, and Mr. Parker had now substituted shrub plant materials using Simpson Stopper, Sword Fern, and Ilex Vomitoria to bring the native count to '60% to meet the Ordinance 377 requirements. Mt. Parker explained the prices shown for plants were estimates, since firm prices could not be obtained for a 3-year period. Vice Mayor Hansen commented the new landscaping would improve the appearance of the roadway and it was hoped it would slow traffic and improve property values in the area. Councilmember Cameron questioned the impact to the swale program on this project. Mr. Preston VILLAGE COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES June 11, 1998 PAGE 12 • explained that the streetscape and swale work would be bid together as one project. Village Manager Bradford questioned the landscaping around the ENCON lift station, which Mr. Parker explained was only along one side and the intent was not to screen the lift station but to screen the shell rock road. Village Manager Bradford pointed out on the plan two areas where landscaping appeared to be on private property for which permission would be . needed. from Turtle Creek. Motion was made by vice Mayor.. Hansen to approve the Scapa ]Plan for Country club Drive as presented.. Notion was seconded by Councilmember Cameron. The vote on the motion. was: Elizabeth A. Schauer - for _Carl C. Hansen - for Alexander W. Cameron - for The motion was therefore passed and adopted. Councilmember Cameron commented there were live oaks at Tequesta Gardens which were, spaced 35' apart the same as in this plan, if anyone cared to see how the future streetscape would look. Peggy Verhoeven, Point Drive, expressed concern that prices would escalate over three years. Village Manager Bradford explained that if the price should exceed the budget, either materials would be cut back or the Village Council would be asked for more money from other places if the money existed. II. NEN BUSINESS A) Resolution No. 27-97/98 - Awarding a Sid to Foster Maxine VILLAGE COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES June 11, 1998 PAo 13 Contractors, Inc., of Pompano Beach, Florida, in the Amount of $548,022 for the RO Reject Main, with Funding Provided by the Water Enterprise Fund, Bond Construction Account, Raving an estimated Budget: Amount of . $600,000 and Authorising the Village Manager to Execute the Contract. (Staff Recommends Approval) • village Manager Bradford explained. the reject main was a • disposal sewer line which would run on the east side of Old Dixie Highway to Bridge Road and proceed up to. U.S. Highway One to approximately the U.S. Highway One bridge, crossing under U.S. Highway One, then down to the marine science center and the pipe would extend out into the center of the rhdnm 1. This main was for the purpose of disposing of the reject from the reverse osmosis process, which would be salty water and the discharge would be underwater. water Department Manager Tom Hall explained there were two options regarding piping materials, PVC or HDPE, and three alternates for road crossings. The bid. award was based on PVC pipe and PVC directional bore as . the method for placing the pipe under the road. Mr. Hall described the drilling process, stated construction would begin in approximately one month, and explained the only difference in the . piping materials was cost. Engineer Tom Jenson explained that ENCON was using black HDPE pipe for IQ golf course water and there was no difference in that pipe's performance and PVC pipe. Mr. Jensen explained the HDPE pipe wag cheaper, however{ in this case the bid using that pipe wait deemed invalid for lack of proper signature. Mr. Jenson commented that a lot of utilities were now using this type of pipe. It was pointed out because there was no abrasive material in the reverse osmosis system, there would be no abrasive material in the discharge.

(Staff Recommends Approval) Village Manager Bradford explained this proposal was for engineering services to monitor construction in. accordance with the plans. The Village Manager questioned what steps Tom Hall, water Manager, took to verify the reasonableness of the request for these dollar amounts from the engineers, to which Mr. Hall responded' he had reviewed previous contracts for this type of work and made comparisons with other projects, and this project was in line with industry standards. The project manager for this project was Tom Jenson. It was clarified that fees were . limited by the cost of the contract. Attorney Randolph read Resolution No. 28-97/98 by title only.

(Staff Recommtends Approval) 1) Single-Family None: $146.28 2) KUlti-Family Bane: $113.16 Village Manager Bradford explained the process involved VILLAGE COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES June 11, 1998 PAGE 16 letting the Solid Waste Authority and the tax collector know the rate before the first budget meeting in September when the assessment roll would be adopted. Village Manager Bradford explained under the current contract the CPI rate would need to be estimated ahead of . the actual established rate; and it was estimated the Village's CPI applicable to the contract with Nichols Sanitation would not exceed 1.4% for the year ending May 1998, and under normal circumstances the village Council would be asked to raise the rate 1.4%. At this time the Council was not being asked to raise the rate, but to leave it as it was, because of recent Palm Beach County actions allowing cities to piggyback Solid Waste Authority contracts, which would be a major impact to Tequesta which had always had a higher rate based on volume, and now their volume base would be higher. Tequesta had also required high quality service. Village Manager Bradford explained that the Village would now be able to get a high quality service provider at a much lower rate. BFI, the new provider in unincorporated areas of Tequesta, would start October 1, and could be monitored by the Village to see if they were delivering quality service at the lower rate. Also, the Village had a $27, 000 fund balance in Refuse and Recycling Fund where assessments were collected and used to pay Nichols Sanitation. . A .1.4% increase would translate to $4,600, and it was recommended the increase be taken from the fund balance rather than increasing rates to the. residents. In September, 1998, a plan for a future contract for Solid Waste Collection would be presented to the Public Works Committee. Mayor Schauer questioned whether in contract negotiations with a service provider the Village could get help for the business owners in the form of reduced rates. Village Manager Bradford commented the BFI rates were lower for business owners. It was pointed out the BFI was a nationwide company based in Houston, Texas, and .that Nichols Sanitation was now owned by a nationwide company also based in Houston.
