A torney, t e ommission, �y agreement. deferred action on an ordinance amending deposits on new water service and 4c water and sewer service accounts until the meeting of June 17, 1968. Action Deferred - Proposed Garbage Ordinance City ttorney a en presente to the commission a proposed Garbage Ordinance. He said, in his opinion, the city could not properly charge ' . a dollar a can for garbage pick-up, but that if there was a charge to be made it possibly could be done on a three months' basis where the people pay a fee for a sticker to be put on their garbage cans. He further said another problem was whether it was the wish of the city to furnish garbage service and pick-up service for the multi-family apartments as the R-Apart- ment Zoning Ordinance adopted June 10, 1968, provided that the apartment owner would furnish the garbage containers . He said, that obviously the city had in mind that the multi-family apartment unit would furnish their own garbage service and the city would not furnish the garbage service for the large apartments that would be in town;. that there was a conflict in the thinking of the Commissioners because it had previously been stated by Commissioner Thornton that every apartment unit would have city garbage pick-up service, and that this matter must be resolved by the Commission. After further discussion on the various points and classifications of the proposed garbage ordinance, Commissioner Marant moved that the garbage ordinance be tabled for five days, until June 17, 1968. Commissioner Houston seconded the motion with the proviso that the city get some publicity on the ordinance prior to June 17, 1968. There being no further discussion, the Commissioners voted as follows: Houston Yes Marant Yes Waiters Yes Kelly Yes Motion passed .

Police Department City anager Goldberg submitted for discussion police policies and on recommendation of City Attorney Walden, the City Commission requested that the Chief of Police confer with the Police _Committee relative to mutual emergency police aid matters as well as other police matters concerning such areas as the Fort-Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport, if and when trouble occurs there, prior to a full and open discussion at a City Commis- sion meeting. City Manager's Report - Water - Water Meter Service Deposits ity anager o dberg�ciscusse a water service o the Robert E. Derecktor & Company property, and the question was just how far is the city going to provide water and where does Derecktor take over? He said the plans indicate a water line going from Taylor Road westward for approxi- mately 5501 , and then going south for approximately another 500' He said this would be an 8" line, probably one in the vicinity of $10,000.00 for the entire line. He said the Commission now had a dedication of the north 501 . Commissioner Houston said the city was not going to run the water line on their property at all, that the city only runs up to a property line. d Mayor Kelly said the matter under discussion would take in the new road at Taylor Road and that would be considered their property line, and that he felt the city should run it that far; that there was 400' to 500' back of Powell's property that the line had to go. Mayor Kelly questioned the fact that Derecktor gave the city the easement. Commissioner Houston said that was all right, that is where their property runs to and it was their ;® obligation to run the line there and obligated to put the water and streets in on their own property. They dedicated the streets, but they have to run the water. Commissioner Marant asked Commissioner Houston if he meant that the city would only run the water line to the Derecktor easement in view of the easement given, and Commissioner Houston reiterated that Derecktor was obligated to put in the water and streets on their property. Mr. Goldberg then asked Commissioner Houston if it would be his recom- mentation to put the water meter on the west side of Taylor Road. Commis- sioner Houston said the meter was not going to be put at Taylor Road. He said that when the line was in the city puts the meter at whatever location the city wants to on Derecktor's property. City Manager Goldberg then asked if the Commission meant that Derecktor would have to put the lines in first. He said Derecktor showed on their plans a meter being down on .their property about 500' south of N. E. 9th Street, and asked if there were any objections to that. After further discussion, the Commission agreed that the intent was for Robert E . Derecktor & Company to have their water line from the west side of Taylor Road to wherever their plans indicated. City Manager Goldberg requested the City Attorney to advise him, if the new proposed water meter service deposits were effective at this time, since the First Reading of the new ordinance on June 10, 1968. City Attorney Walden advised that the new rates were not effective until the Second, Third • and Final Reading of the ordinance.
