cheer um I guess uh competition as well. So uh we're going to have a bunch of kids and um cheerleaders in the in the audience on the 20th um in the beginning of the meeting. So, uh, I would ask staff to kind of, uh, allow for se seats for the for the, uh, Bulldogs and their
players and the families so, so we can celebrate them. Um, looking forward to this. It's, it's been a great season. I was actually there the day they won the Super Bowls. It was pretty impressive and pretty proud of what they've accomplished this year. Um item 3B, um
uh the economic development department, GI and Michael Keller's team are going to be providing us an update on the strategic plan as well as a present a presentation uh and kind of talk about where we are now and where we're heading with the strategic plan. Um
let's see. I go on to 5A and I'm going to let um Candace go over 5A through D. everybody. Um, 5A is to ratify the selection of Robin Kurtzmann as chair and Margaret Roberts as vice chair for
the art advisory board. Um, 5B is to ratify the selection of Miss Lysa Roundtree as the community redevelopment advisory board vice chair. Uh, the crab board voted during their November 19th meeting to appoint her to that position.
Um 5A, we do have two waiverss that are being sought for our board for board appointments. One is Miss Regina Fay and she's seeking a waiver for a residency requirement for the senior advisory board as well as Michaela Lewis is
seeking a waiver for the education youth advisory board for the residency requirement. Uh moving to 5D is our advisory board appointment. So I'm going to go ahead and pull those up. We do we do not have any uh openings for advisory board, the art advisory board
or the building uh board adjustments. I mean uh applicants. We do have two applicants for the education and youth advisory board. Um Commissioner Cruz has the regular uh appointment for the vacancy. Um Commissioner Turkin and Kelly have student vacancies, but the
two applicants are for the regular appointment. um neither one of them are students and once again Michaela Lewis is asking for a waiver on residency. Um moving to the historic res resources preservation board uh we we do not have
any applicants for that nor for the library advisory board um for recreation and parks board. Commissioner Cruz also has that regular vacancy for um and the applicant is Matthew Wajes Showski.
And for the FENA advisory board, Regina Fay once again is seeking the waiver for residency and Trisha Cruz also has that regular vacancy appointment. >> Thank you, Candace. And then item 5E
any questions? No. >> Okay. Um 5e um the planning staff um has put this item on for us to um coordinate um updates for the comprehensive plan. Um Gabe, are you on? Do you want to talk
a little bit about this? But we're asking for an hour for the fe February 3rd and February 17th meeting. Um and do you want to go over any Yeah, go ahead. >> Going on. How you doing, Keith? You're
on. I know it's supposed to be for you. Gabe, >> this is Gabe. I think Kevin was able to log back on and if he wanted to speak for it, but if he can't have audio, then I can speak to it. >> Okay. Can you go ahead and speak to it on this item, the comprehensive plan? I
know. Is this a requirement for us to have these two meetings and then um do they have to be on >> Excuse me. For the workshops, we do have requirements um to be able to lead up to it. Um the dates may be um able to
switch around if they're not agreed upon um from the commission. Um but they we do need to have them. Um so that can be definitely up for discussion if the the dates aren't working out. >> Okay. All right. So that'll be our discussion at the meeting is kind of try to coordinate that with the commission
on deciding whether you want to do them in front of the commission or whether we need to have a special meeting or however you want to handle that. Um those are things that we can talk about the day of the meeting as well. Any questions? All right, Candace, I'll let you take 8F
talk about the >> meeting. >> Sure. So, uh, the National League of Cities 2026 Congressional City Conference is going to be held March 16th to the 18th with pre-activities the 14th to the 15th. So, we could have potential potentially not have a quorum
on the 17th depending on commission travel. So, this needed to be brought up for discussion um to see if we need to move the meeting. Um, likewise, district 2 and four, they ran on opposed. It's supposed to be their swearing in. staff is suggesting March 23rd to 26 for a new
meeting date and there's a calendar on there so we can review um and that's just in case we're not going to have quum. >> What about the 19th that Thursday? >> I may was there any issue with that date? Um
if you could pull up the um the calendar. >> Uhuh. >> So it looks like the 19th just be the >> it'll just be the day you're returning back from it. >> Yeah. Usually that's a travel day because the 18th is the last day of the um the conference.
>> Got it. Got it. >> There's no there's no major meetings on the following week, the 23rd to the 26th. and we have that extra week in between um for the commission meeting. So >> um because the commission meeting wouldn't
fall until um February or April 7th. So we have like that extra week in between. That's why I put in that suggestion for the 23rd to the 26th. >> Okay. All right. >> Yeah, I'm good with the 23rd. >> Okay. >> I am still
okay. So, when we get to the commission meeting, we'll finalize that with the rest of the commission and and we'll get that date changed. Um, just to let everyone know, I did get a request just now through email. Um, Allison sent me Commissioner Cruz, we got your request for the all-in learning proclamation. We we'll work with staff on seeing getting
that onto the agenda for Tuesday. Commissioner Cruz asked if we could add a proclamation for um early learning day. >> Okay. If I can have the information sent to me and who's going to receive it, I can create it. >> All right, no problem.
Actually, you're on that email me. >> All right, 6A. Uh, simply we're asking to uh use some of the opiate settlement funds to do training for the police department. Um, I think that's a pretty win-win there, using those funds to
cover that training. Um B and C. Um we're just awarding grants through the economic development department. Our small business marketing grant and then also our small business support grants. Um the the business marketing grants are 2500 a piece is nine awardees and then
we have 11 for the support grants and they vary in amounts. Uh any questions on those that you wanted to look into or I have Michael Kelner on if you have any questions. All right. 6D.
I'm catching an echo. Somebody mute their turn down their volume. Please still hear an echo. All right, good. Uh 6D lost here. Okay. Um we're this is uh related to some of the public hearing
items. Um this is a consent item to release unity title on uh the land. Uh there's two parcels that are conjoined with a unity title. In order for our site plans to be approved, uh this unity title needs to be approved. Um planning staff can talk a little bit deeper into
this if there's any questions and we'll also get into the site plan approval this later on coming up in public hearings. 6E approving the authorized city manager sign amendment between the city and de
the D. Um this is a a grant that we have to rehab and replace the uh the uh lift station up at the the oceanfront park. Uh we're just reallocating funds and and extending they're giving us an extension on the timeline. Uh they're reallocating
funds that were in one category for design or planning to the construction cost. There's really no more money, just utilizing the full amount of the grant. Uh 6F is we're ratifying the previous mayor, Steven Grant, um requested to
utilize the amphitheater um to hold a manora lighting um and we obliged to do that and we had um unfortunately we under the facility use agreements um this has to come back the commission to approve. So um we are asking to approve
it. the events already happened. It was a very small event, just a little small event that they had in the amphitheater. Um, so in going forward, we'll try to get that done. It was a last minute request to get that done. So we, the city manager did authorize that and we're just bring it back to the commission to ratify his actions to
allow that to happen. 6G, can you open that one up? Um, uh, Candace, I wanted to show them the, um, the actual restricted covenant. So, this is related to our acquisition of 670 Oak Street. Um we came to agreement with the
sellers. They would like to impose a few restrictions on the land to ensure that it's compatible with what their vision or at least what they you know that they want to see uh go down a little bit more to the restrictions.
Um so most of the restrictions are pretty are okay. Um the height restriction gives us 36 ft uh two habitable stories there as well as we can use the roof or if it was a beer garden or something to that effect. Also structured parking or dry stack marina.
There's no allowed on on 670 partial only. Uh and then on the third part of that is we're preserving the development rights there that currently exists with for residential development. So if we purchase this property and if um if things don't go ary, we still have those
rights under this to allow us to redevelop it or at least to sell it to another person to redevelop. Um the real crux of this uh agree or the restrictions relate to the allowable uses in the wreck zoning. They want us to only be able to put wreck zoning uses
on this property as well as a 25- ft setback which is code 25 setback. And then they want to put a restriction of 32,500 square feet for um for the maximum building foot square foot. So that that's the maximum building that
could be built on that site. Um current code requires a 0.5 F. This is actually a little bit over that. Um so we're looking for some flexibility to make sure that we could accomplish what our goals were with this park and this this project. Uh, I do think these are are
compatible with what we're doing, but I just want to make sure the commission is comfortable with that. Um, you could modify this if it became a problem in the future. Right now, we don't anticipate that, but it would take an unanimous um, approval from the commission to change or modify this
restricted covenant that would be run with the land. Guys, have any comments on this action? >> Is the uh, is the contract on contingent on getting this done? Andrew. >> Yes, sir. So, we can't close. Um, so we
are hard on our money with them other than this particular aspect because it had to go I couldn't speak for the commission. >> So, if you guys don't approve this, then we would terminate the contract on the next day. >> U, but I I don't anticipate this being a
problem. The square footage kind of made me a little bit nervous, but I do feel like it we can accomplish it because even by code right now only could put a 0.5 F on this which is is about 32,000 square feet. >> Got it. >> But not knowing and not having a site
plan, you know, an approved site plan knowing for sure. Typically, we would ask for if we're if it was me purchasing a property, typically I would ask for eight, you know, uh not to close until after we have site plan approval. That way there's certainty on this.
>> Um I do feel that this is fine. I think we do have we've covered it. Um I just wanted to make sure the commission is fully aware of what the implications are. If we close and there is a problem, we may have to bring this item back for discussion and or amendment >> and the city has the the city commission
has the authority to then you know make an amendment with via unanimous decision. All right. >> That's correct. Yes, sir. >> All right. Cool. It's just it's just something that we didn't we wanted to work out with them up front because you know obviously we don't want to put you guys in that position where you're having to kind of you know unwind
something. So I do feel like we're good and in the in this people that I've talked to about the project felt like this was a was an acceptable restriction. >> Okay. Awesome. Thank you. >> All right. Where we at? >> Any things with consent or bids or anything? >> So I don't know if the mayor has
anything. >> I don't either. >> Okay. >> We're at 6H. It's just the commission meeting minutes. >> Yeah. I mean, I don't need to I don't need to see those either. >> Yep. All right. Go down to 8A. I I'll go some of these I'll Kevin and Gabe, I'll handle the ones that are repeats and you can go over the first ones. Go down to
8A. Candace, >> you want me to skip seven? >> Yes. They asked us to skip it. Yes. >> Okay. >> So 8A is the second reading of the uh land use change. This is for the project over there on Highidge for Hyidge
Country Club. Um this is running along with that abandonment that's allowing them to use expand the golf course. That's AB and uh C are all related to the um the the abandonment of the rightway within their property and it's
reszoning it the land use and the zoning direct so that they can fully accomplish what they want to do because they have a I think they have a $40 million project coming to uh redo the whole entire golf course here in the next year or so I think I believe. Um, and this is second reading. You guys have already heard
that one. Uh, go down to 8 D. This is also on second reading. Uh, this was a cleanup of the, uh, infill IPUD, um, regulations and just clarifying that it's only for residential purposes.
You got any questions on that particular item? >> Okay. And then I'll let uh Gabe or or Kevin, you guys run with A, E, F, and G, please. >> All right. Um, are you able to hear me? >> Yes. >> Okay, good. I had to switch laptop. I
had to switch laptop. >> Um, even >> you're echoing really bad. >> Yay. Why don't you jump in? >> Is my audio better? >> Yes.
>> Okay. So this is uh for the Josie's uh restaurant along federal. Um the current it will be a new map amendment with a reszone and a site plan. >> Think I'm still echoing someone >> cuz we have there's two microphones I
think working >> right now. >> Is that better? >> Yeah. >> Uh so yeah, this is just for the Josie's restaurant. Um you saw on consent was the release of unity of title. Um it's to reszone for the commercial um and allow for that development before the
applicant will be there for their presentation. Um and staff will also have a presentation available if uh commission so chooses have to go forward. >> Any question? Do you guys want to see any of the plans or site plans bring up real quick or are you guys good or wait
to wait till the meeting? >> Okay. >> Sorry muted. Yeah, I'm fine until I see the presentation. I don't know. Uh >> yep. >> All right. And 10A is um we're we you know we've met with the
county um after our meeting. They are allowing us to move forward with Bamboo Lane being that it's an enclave. Um, we're not running it through the using the utility service agreements to do that, accomplish that. Um, we're working through them with an enclave annexation. This interlocal agreement does
accomplish that. Um, Gabe, am I am I missing anything? Is there anything else that >> Kevin better now? >> Yeah, there it goes. >> Yes. >> Okay. Okay, good. Um, yeah. So, I'll just add to that. Thank you, Andrew. Um so yes so both planning staff um the
city and county attorney's office and city administration county administration have been working together on this. Um in part Florida statute has a specific section that deals with enclaves. Um and in that section of Florida statute, the state
notes that it's actually policy of the state to eliminate such enclaves due to the problematic nature um for service delivery, whether that be fire, police or infrastructure. Um so so the county does agree um you know with the the
premise of this obviously meets the Florida statute definition of an enclave and has an has agreed to um the language in an interlocal agreement to allow for the annexation of the Bamboo Lane area through this method of annexation which
again is allowed per Florida statute. >> Is there any other items that will come after this or is this the last item to accomplish this? Uh Kevin >> um there will. So what what the uh chain of events will be uh should the city commission approve this on the 20th then
the county commission will schedule the interlocal for the county commission's approval and then once they approve that then the uh future land use and zoning changes for these properties will come back at a subsequent um public hearing
before the city commission. >> Excellent. Thank you Kevin. Uh, you want to go ahead and take 10 B and C as well while you're on? >> Sure. So, um, B and C are follow-up items to to previous board discussions. The first, I believe it was in early November at one of the city commission
meetings under public comment. There were a few members of the public that spoke about um having free um free little libraries and pantries on their property and the fact that the city code does not allow for those. So there was
direction given for staff to do some research, look at how other jurisdictions handle it or do not handle it. Um so what we'll be doing is coming to you with a presentation on various jurisdictions both locally as well as in
other states um and how they handle it. I I will note that most jurisdictions at least locally don't have provisions in the code that that would allow for it. However, there are some examples. I'll note uh the village of Lake Park in northern Palm Beach County. They do have
a section of their code specifically for little free libraries, but in order for a property owner to participate, they have to um do that via a program through their library. So it's it's in co
coordination with the library. Um so basically staff will be you know highlighting that findings and then seeking board direction if the board would like city staff to work on an ordinance to make any changes to allow for such uses or uses or to uh just
maintain the code which currently would not allow for these. >> Okay. >> You want to go on to 10? >> Sure. And then um this again is another follow-up item. This is a followup to
the joint CRA city commission workshop that was held in early November uh where direction was given to explore the development of a marina district overlay. So again this will be anformational presentation as well as seeking direction from the city
commission. So we will highlight um certain wouldn't say at this point recommendations but suggestions of you know what such an overlay could look like for the city of Boon Beach um some proposed geographical areas
um proposed uses and then again we'll be seeking some board direction on you know the specifics of what such an overlay would look like so then staff can go forward and u draft those applicable land development regulations.
updates to bring back an ordinance to the commission for adoption at a future meeting. >> Excellent. >> And I apologize for my voice. Uh this is my first day recovering from the flu, so I know I don't sound perfect. >> Thanks, Kevin. Appreciate it. All right,
that uh concludes our agenda. Uh is there any items that you need to discuss? U Mayor Shelton or Commissioner Turkin or staff, do you have any items that we need to discuss before we adjourn? I'm good. >> I'm good. I'm good to go >> for the meeting.
>> Well, hope you guys had a good time in Tales and we're glad to have you back and look forward to seeing everyone on Tuesday night. You guys have a good night and we'll see you Tuesday. >> Thanks, guys. >> Thank you. >> Thank you. >> Bye.
