Council Minutes August 9, 2001 Councilmember Walker asked to speak to Phase II of the Encon project in the Tequesta Club under "Any Other Matters." MOTION: Councilmember Walker moved to approve the agenda as amended, Councilmember Dalack seconded. Motion carried 4-0. IV. UNFINISHED BUSINESS None. V. PRESENTATIONS A. Acting Mayor Capretta presented Mr. Buckwalter, stating he is retiring from the Jupiter Courier, and those of you who attend meetings regularly know he has been a regular attendee. Acting Mayor Capretta stated Roger has written many editorials over the last 28 years, what his recommendations have been, some we agree with and some we don't always, and he is also a citizen of the Village, and he grew up in Florida. He probably has helped form a lot of opinions we have in the Village. Acting Mayor Capretta handed Mr. Buckwalter a gift. Roger Buckwalter thanked Acting Mayor Capretta.. He said he has been a resident of Tequesta since 1979, and he has enjoyed it very much. He believes the Village has a strong since of democracy. He stated major decisions are coming up around the Village, and the decisions we are going to be making are going to have along-lasting impact. He thinks the quality of the city depends on the quality of its people-intelligent, diverse, and of many backgrounds. He is particularly impressed with the people on the Charter Review Board. He served on a Charter Review and knows what it takes. He feels Tequesta will develop as a place of scenic beauty and civic pride, and hopes to be a part of it. He is going to stay right here, and as Johnny Carson said, he has been one of the lucky people in the world. He thanked the Village for the opportunity to do that, and for all the good work they have been doing. Councilmember Walker stated when Mr. Buckwalker and I first met, it was only a couple of years ago, and we were on such opposite sides of the Page 3 . Council Minutes August 9, 2001 fence, it was not a pretty scene. The professionalism which Mr. Buckwalter has always shown me has always impressed me as phenomenally outstanding, and I think a very rare quality. B. Assistant Police Chief Garlo presented Stacy Hillman, a special young lady who is an example to young people that with the right desire any thing can be accomplished. At the age of 10, she came to the realization the police dogs in her hometown were doing an honorable job but were not protected by the same body armor that the rest of the law enforcement officers were. Stacy formed Pennies to Protect Police Dogs and has since raised over $65,000 and providing over 120 vests to over 3 dozen law enforcement agencies. She has received the Governors Point of Light Award from Governor Bush, and tonight she is here to present the Tequesta Police Department and Hasso with her gift of protection. Stacy Hillman introduced herself as the President of her nonprofit charity, Pennies to Protect Police dogs. Since she started her charity in March 2000, she has bought 120 vests from Miami to Pensacola. Her goal is to provide all the police dogs in Florida a bulletproof vest, and then all of the police dogs in the United States. The donation she received from the Fraternal Order of Police, which was $720.00 helped her buy K-9 Hasso a bulletproof vest. Last year two dogs were shot and killed in the line of duty. I rely on the community to help me get these vests, and I thank you. Ron Kelly and Hasso were introduced, and it was explained that the dog made his first apprehension on an individual who stole a car in Martin County. The individual was concealing himself in the bushes, but on the sight of Hasso he gave himself up. C. Chairman Edward Resnik stated he was there this evening to update us on the Charter Review Board. The Village Charter Review Board formed by Resolution 46-00/O1. The Resolution stated the specific purpose to serve as an advisory board to the Village Council on matters relating to the review and amendment of the Village charter to make recommendations to the Village Council relating to said review, and as to any proposed amendments. You appointed five members with various backgrounds. These members are Rich Berube, Robert Cook, Jim Humpage, Vi Laamanen, and me. The Board has been ably assisted by Betty, Skip, and Page 4 Council Minutes August 9, 2001 Manager. All have served with dedication and vigor. The Board recognized that a charter is the single most important law of local government, and are in need of update from time to time to keep it a viable document. We have recognized that our charter is a sturdy, 30 year old document that has done us well in the past, as well as for providing the most effective administration. In compliance with the purpose of the Charter Review Board, the Board initially established that each paragraph would be reviewed in detail, and appropriate recommendations for amendment needed to update, improve and modernize the charter would be proposed to the Village Council. To date, the Board has had one administrative meeting, and three detail meetin~s. Additional meetings are scheduled on the 14`t' of August and the 29 All Board meetings have been duly noticed and open to the public. They have been formally conducted. Each councilmember has been provided copies of the minutes of the meetings, the interim revised charter, and amendments. As you have seen the interim revised charter is presented in standard line-in, line- out format. At your September 13t1i Council Meeting, we are planning to provide a revised charter in line-in, line-out format with the addition of a Board reason for the change following each change. Acting Mayor Capretta stated one of our former Councilmen, Earl Collings, passed away a few days ago. He had been the Council for seven years, and one of the driving forces behind the reverse osmosis plant. His funeral is coming up on Monday, and those who want details can get them. VI.

Motion carried -1-0. VII. COMMUNICATIONS FROM CITIZENS Leslie Cook gave her condolences regarding Earl Collings. She stated she has lived her for 28 years, and she just recently attended a Community Appearance Board meeting with regard to the Public Safety Building. She noticed on the size the overall square footage is too high. There are more rooms than people who work there. Facing the new building you see 50 ft. of nothing. Windows and embellishments are over-done. She is concerned that it is being designed independently without the thought that Village Hall could be on that property- concerned the fire department is the main focus on that building. She feels this is probably the most important issue of our Village. Dana Anderson wants to know who he needs to talk to regarding the road in front of his house, because the road is low, the driveway is falling apart, there are miscellaneous problems. Who do I need to talk to? This is Phase I, not Phase II, • and has been a process over the last five months. I don't know what is going on. Acting Mayor Capretta stated he could talk to Tom Jensen and Mr. Couzzo. He stated he has issues himself as to where we stand on the sewers, roads, stormwater sewers, streetlights, and swales. Phase I should be over by the end of this month. What they are going through now is the checklist and audit of where we stand on all of these things. We should give that input to Mr. Jensen or Mr. Couzzo. We want to clean up all of the details. We tore the Country Club up, and we need to have a list of what needs to be done. Mr. Anderson stated if Tom or Mike would like to contact Neil Vanderwaal, their president, or himself about any other things to try and get a list and all, we would be more than happy. Acting Mayor Capretta stated he had them brief him on Phase II, and had them take a map of all the streets, and lay out color coding. Lay it out so you can actually see the schedule of where we are actually going. We changed Phase II because we were afraid they had a plan to leave Country Club until Christmas. There is a map that Neil Vander Waal might want to review with Mr. Jensen, and discuss it at one of your homeowners meetings. I think we are ready to have such a meeting. • Page 6 . Council Minutes August 9, 2001 Councilmember Walker stated this is what I wanted to touch on under "Any Other Matters." There are a lot of unanswered questions with regard to Phase I. People don't know where they stand, where the Village stands. Phase II is phenomenal. Water mains are breaking daily, geysers are going 30 feet into the air, and manholes have now been grated over. There is no source of information or one source to ask questions. Schedules are provided that are never lived up to. I really think that even though the majority of the problems in Phase II deal with Encon, it is the responsibility of Council, let alone this Village, to provide these people with straightforward answers. I was going to ask if we can schedule a workshop or a presentation where the Village, and more importantly, Encon would be present to answer these questions. I think the sooner the better. I think it is imperative that we answer people's questions in an honest manner. I would request that Council direct administration to put on such a presentation as soon as possible, and that everyone be hand notified. Pert Towne, 364 Fairway North, stated she hopes they are going to pave Fairway North and Golfview prior to tearing up Country Club Drive, because if we don't, we will have nothing but ruts, cars are getting ruined. I could not get out of my . home for 17 days, and it got back to me that Encon and the workmen were calling me the Saint. They were happy that what they ran into was in front of my house because I was so congenial and nice about it. What I did to entertain myself, I stayed in my kitchen and baked cookies for the workmen. But our driveways have been totally destroyed, my concrete driveway was not made far these vehicles. My main concern is get Golview, Fairway North and River Drive paved prior to tearing up Country Club Drive. You are going to have more traffic through the Country Club. We have nothing but ruts. But the damage is quite extensive, if it goes too much longer, I think we are going to have "sewer rage." Village Manager Couzzo stated we have been meeting regularly on this issue, and the contractor has requested that he be permitted to do work on Saturdays- our concern was at least not let the residents be inconvenienced on the weekend. If that is something you want to consider, we will have them work on Saturdays. We discussed this evening he work until 7:00 at night and the possibility of going on Saturday. It was our intent to have a communication out to everyone 10 days ago. We are still waiting to finish the asphalt. Couneilmember Walker stated it is very frustrating to the residents, the machinery is sitting there at the entrance to the south gate, and you wouldn't believe the number of calls I get. Page 7 • Council Minutes August 9, 2001 Village Manager Couzzo responded we are pressing the contractor, there is some difficulty and we are going to continue to work on it. The schedule indicated that Country Club Drive would be under construction beginning mid- November. We have changed that this afternoon to September. They have been given firm instructions. C'ouncilmember Walker questioned what has been put off to accommodate that change, what streets will now be delayed. Village Manager Couzzo stated we are going to finish up on River Drive and Golf. Tom Jensen indicated to me he is coordinating a meeting next week to discuss these issues. Mr. Vander Waal stated our newsletter would go out in the next couple of weeks. If I could get an opportunity to meet with Mike the first of the week, maybe we could arrange some type of meeting we could publish in our newsletter. We could have Phase II people come in and have a discussion. The residents need a . better idea as to time frames, responsibilities, etc. Councilmember Walker when Phase I was going on, there were periodic newsletters going out, and notices put on doors. There has been none of that in Phase II, do you think even that would help, or is there something else the residents are looking for? Mr. Vander Waal mentioned Phase I had a much more semblance of organization. We need to find solutions and figure out how people can communicate. If we could have a meeting next week, we could get some clarification. Acting Mayor Capretta stated what he was trying to do was get a plan. For Phase II I want to get a good plan. As soon as I looked at the plan the other day, I immediately saw the plan they had was for Country Club to be messed up until next Thanksgiving. What resources the contractor was going to be on, what days are we going to let them work, what streets are going to be done, and then we can sit down with these people and give them a plan. I think what you need to do first is sit down with Mr. Couzzo and Tom Jensen. Everyone says the contractor is the nicest guy you ever saw. We don't have a belligerent contractor. The real issue is you have to have a reasonable job on a reasonable schedule. Then you can have it in the newsletter and have meetings. ;~ Page S Council Minutes August 9, 2001 Councilmember Walker commented that in the interim people also need to have someplace or someone to go to, to ask their questions where they will be answered in a truthful manner. I am concerned about people like Mrs. Towne on Fairway North, where every time it rains she has this huge gully in front of her house, and she doesn't know how deep it is. Who does she call? Dana Anderson stated I am aware of all this every day of the week. If you ever had anything done on your house, you understand delays. Some people do understand what the truth is today. What I tell you is the truth today as a contractor may not be the truth tomorrow. It is a very relative thing. I can only control the guys that I pay. Whoever these subcontractors are, all we can do is be diligent in our supervision making sure it happens. Maybe we need to have Tom Jensen out there more. We need to push for sooner. A little extra work on Saturdays, or whatever, the sooner it gets done, the better. Pert Towne remarked when you have work going on in so many areas, it makes it hard for Jim Farrell, the Supervisor to see what is going on there. We need more supervision. Joe Hall, 159 Country Club Drive, I hear a lot of complaints. I have been going • to a lot of Encon meetings, and the people that have been at those Encon meetings have been me and one other guy on River Drive talking to the Board. I think if you people want something done, you should go to the Encon meeting-go next Thursday, and make sure the Board and everyone knows there are problems and a lot of people are being affected.

Community Development Director Newell stated this is a consideration of a sketch plan for Yacht Club Point. The applicant is Mr. Burg is present, and has been through a DRC process. The issues I have listed for you in my memorandum have been addressed. At this point you will either approve or disapprove Mr. Byrd's sketch plot. Staff recommendation is to move forward with the approval and to grant permission to proceed with a preliminary final plat. Councilmember Walker stated when the project first came before us, the council did have some comments. I am assuming those comments and requests have been taken care of through the DRC? Mr. Newell responded in the DRC they addressed those issues. Councilmember Walker questioned proposed lot 4, and where the driveway was cut. Mr. Burg responded the driveway will enter offthe cul-de-sac, no driveways are shown. LJ Page 10 Council Minutes August 9, 2001 Councilmember Walker mentioned it appears the original entrance columns where you say block columns need to be moved. Are they going to be relocated to the street? Mr. Burg responded EMS has to be able to get their emergency vehicles in there, they are all going to be removed. Brian O'Brien, 16 Yacht Club Place, state it has just come to my attention today that they are replatting 16 yacht club place, I have some questions regarding the density of this project, what is the minimum lot size they would be allowed to have? Mr. Newell 12,000 sq. ft., which meets the minimum requirement of R- 1 A. Steve Gordon. l0 Yacht Club, commented he glanced at the plans and sees is #1 in affordable the property that the property and tax base of the property has become prohibited. The house on the property is a pair of brown shoes for a tuxedo, and out of architectural harmony with the rest of the Country Club. I have no objection whatsoever to roughly 8 million dollars of tax base coming in. It boosts our neighborhood pretty well. I am directly east of it, and I have no objection to it. Acting Mayor Capretta stated this has been through our review boards and wouldn't be here if it didn't meet all the requirements. Joe Grosso the road going through the middle of the property will be owned by a homeowners association to be formed. Betty Na~y remarked in 1972 in the Code of Ordinances there will be no private road in the Village-there cannot be any private streets in the Village, all streets have to be opened.

MOTION: Councilmember von Frank moved to accept; • Page 12 Council Minutes • August 9, 2001 Councilmember Walker asked if the Village has ever had to go to this extent before to collect. Chief Weinand stated the Village has not gone through this extent before, but it is common among transport services. I think we have billed out about a half million dollars in collections, and we have about a 70 percent collection rate. Attorney Randolph stated any approval of this will be subject to his review the agreement. Seconded by Councilmember Walker. Councilmember Dalack remarked he is against any collection. We are not going up against affluent people. I would not support this Councilmember Walker commented a while ago chief brought up an issue for us to approve or disapprove the amount we could charge under • Medicare. We began a discussion as to how we wanted this department to operate. I would like to request a workshop be scheduled on this topic. Colonel Resnik stated about two years ago this issue came up about the way individuals in Tequesta are charged for emergency services. I asked the Mayor at that time why is it that you budget for a certain portion of the pay of emergency services, and you charge for the rest of it, why don't you just add it to the budget and be done with it. It is just like an insurance policy for anybody. Councilmember Walker stated she would like to request postponement of this issue until we can schedule a workshop in which we can determine the philosophy and policy of our EMS service, as soon as possible. Consensus of the Council was to defer this issue. , E.

They were actually challenged by an applicant, because he felt if Council already approved, then he should not have to make any changes. Councilmember Walker stated when she sat on the Community Appearance Board, they were the first stop. We were concerned how the Council felt, and they asked us to change it. Town Manager Couzzo stated the Council is the ultimate body, and the approval of the Council should be the final approval. Attornev Randolph explained we can change this by ordinance. If Council votes for this tonight, it will be subject to his reviewing it. Consensus of the Council was to develop an ordinance for the switch. H.

Acting Mayor Capretta read the draft resolution by caption only. Councilmember Dalack suggested we do our best to have the referendum for the amendment of the charter held at the same time as the site selection, and also when the residents are here. Councilmember Walker remarked she would like to follow Mr. Dalack and request we do our best to determine when the majority of our seasonal residents are here so they can vote, so they are properly notified and informed, so they can receive absentee ballots and vote. With regards to the language, I have some concerns. We need to choose a name for the Center and stick with it. I have been talking with some people, and I say to them you need to know your vote is important and it seems to be, out of five people talking, four stated they feel Fire and Police need to be on the east side of the tracks. We need to pass information to let people know it is not Police and Fire. I have a concern the two addresses that are given are somewhat confusing. Acting Mayor Capretta stated Mr. Zucarelli's building is One Main Street- -357 Tequesta has always been known as the Village Hall. I am assuming that it will be the address of the Public Safety Building. A question we should ask is, do you favor the Village Hall being built at this time? There has been talk we have been spending an awful lot of money all at once. Councilmember von Frank asked where does it lead us as far as JMZ. Would it leave you in the same place if you didn't have that vote? Attorney Randolph stated you have a lot of policy issues and technical issues you have raised. As far as what you call it, as long as you are going through the education process, and as long as you and the public are on the same page...I will try to come up with more descriptive language. Councilmember Dalack stated there ought to be a place for "none of the above." • Page 17 • Council Minutes August 9, 2001 Acting Mayor Capretta stated 9 out of 10 wouldn't know what Main Street was. I assume when the election takes place, someone will have to put up a location and say where it is proposed. Attorney Randolph stated you need to tell me the best way to describe these properties in the ballot language. Councilmember Walker stated she is concerned we are offering an option that we don't own. Mrs. Song gave us lots of options to what this building could contain. I think we never determined what it will contain. If the electorate needs to vote on the location, I think it is important to us to know what to contain in the Village Hall. Joanne Man~aniello stated the Village Center is an approved master site plan for an envisioned four process development. I would suggest adjacent to 357 Tequesta Drive, • Attorney Randoph stated the easier they are listed the better. What would you rather see-would you prefer-please vote for one location only, 357 Tequesta Drive, Tequesta Plaza, put an x next to one. X. ANY OTHER MATTERS XI. ADJOURNMENT MOTION: Councilmember Dalack moved to adjourn; Councilmember von Frank seconded. Motion carried 4-0. Meeting was adjourned at 9: 36 p. m. C~
