2. PUBLIC COMMENTS AND REOUESTS:
Dennis Dowd, 3420 S. Ocean Blvd. read into the record his letter to the Commission regarding a water
leak at the Coronado Condominium, and the exorbitant water bill they have incurred due to this
problem attached as Exhibit "A". As a member of the Board of Directors of the Coronado, he is
asking for relief in the form of some type of compensation or refund from the amount charged due to
this leak. Also, when there is such a spike in the water usage, the condominium or homeowner be
made aware of it, so they could remedy the situation. Hopefully the Town could come up with some
type of red flag when something like this occurs.

Paul Resnick, 4740 S. Ocean Blvd. — I noticed a floating dock approximately 40 feet long and 15 feet
wide located behind a home in Grand Cay, which is part of the Boca Highlands complex. It is
unsightly and contains jet skis, kayaks, a large inner tube and an 18 foot inboard/outboard boat. This
affects approximately 80 homeowners who look out over the marina and see it. When I complained to
the Building Department, I found out that there are no ordinances or regulations concerning floating
docks in Highland Beach. At this time, I am asking the Commission to pass some form of regulations
for floating docks. I also noticed a boatlift being constructed without a permit. Building Official Mike
Desorcy stopped the job until a permit was issued. We are living in a boating community, but there
has to be some control over the number of boatlifts and floating docks allowed to be put in on private
properties.
Vice Mayor Weitz — The issue is not about the Commission controlling these floating docks and
boatlifts, but that they are controlled under the by-laws and documents of the condominium
associations. There are some associations that have rules and regulations with respect to floating
docks.
Don Gill, 4740 S. Ocean Blvd. — I am confirming Paul Resnick's statement regarding the floating
dock. I am also one of the condominium owners affected by this floating dock. My other complaint is
the fact that this homeowner has four dogs who bark constantly all day long. They should not be
allowed to be outside when there is a good deal of activity on the water.

7. NEW BUSINESS:
A) Discussion Regarding Generic Statements in the Personnel Job Descriptions
Vice Mayor Weitz — I asked for items to be placed under New Business. To refresh, at the last
workshop meeting, we reviewed three or four position descriptions in one of our areas in the
Town. They were well done, and very thorough with regard to the duties and responsibilities and
the criteria for the positions, etc. However, at the end of the descriptions was a generic statement
having to do with the fact that, if the person had the necessary training experience, it would
suffice and override any of the other criteria. It was my recommendation then and is now, when
we can vote on it, that the statement be eliminated from all job descriptions in Highland Beach
for the following reasons: The Town Manager and the various departments put a lot of time and
energy into identifying the education and training experience needed for the various positions.
We live in a time where technology, education and sophistication in jobs is increasing, not
decreasing. The fact of the matter is experience, and prior training is also included within those
areas of consideration. It is not eliminated. We just don't look at education. Other factors are
relevant as well, including training and experience. However, to put in a statement at the end
which disqualifies potentially all the prior criteria and allows a hire without any of the major
education components, I think in this time, date and age is unnecessary, and I would ask that
particular sentence in all the job descriptions in Highland Beach be removed. That is my belief.
There was also an issue with regard to criteria for various job performance. In jobs that don't
have it, I would also ask that the last item be "and other duties as assigned". In other words,
there are a lot of duties that are specified. They are a lot of good duties. There are some that
indicate there are other duties assigned or required. I would recommend that statement be
included in all job descriptions so that the supervisors have the ability to control their employees,
have the ability to assign tasks, and don't have to run into a situation where an employee says it
is not my job. Those are the two recommendations I would make at this time, and would like to
open it up for discussion.
Commission Discussion:
Commissioner Feldman — It brings up an interesting point. The first thing is, if you totally
eliminate that paragraph, and you have an employee who has been working for the Town for 10
to 15 years, has the experience, training and knowledge but does not have the education
"background", that could eliminate that person from the position. It could hurt the Town. I feel
in a new hire you could use that, but if it is somebody already working for the Town and has the
experience of the job, I don't think you should suddenly eliminate that person from applying
because of the fact that he doesn't have an education certificate of sorts, such as a college degree.
It is very easy to get a degree from a lot of colleges, on line, etc., etc. Someone could be here
with any type of degree. So, we do have to keep in something about training experience, etc. on
longevity on the job, because we could eliminate some very qualified people in the Town taking
the position.
Town Commission Regular Meeting Minutes
Tuesda`,Mav 3, 2016 Page 5 of 11
Commissioner Zelniker — I agree with the Vice Mayor on this. As an example, there is a job
opening for Town Clerk right now. I happen to know somebody who would like that position,
but I do believe that you have to have certain certification for the job. It is someone that doesn't
work in the Town who would like that position. She said it is a clerical position and has a lot of
experience in other things. I think we do have to have a certain set of qualifications and
standards. The way the world is today, it is important to have certification. I believe there is a
certain amount of training in becoming an Assistant Town Clerk that is required. I honestly
believe, even though somebody has been working here and they know- the job, why then should
the Town Clerk require certification. If a certain job requires a certain amount of education, that
should count for something.
Commissioner Stern—I am split right down the middle here because I believe in both. Our recent
Assistant Town Clerk had both the education and the training, and how did that work out? It is a
gamble, and you do not know. Part of me says you should have the education, and I agree with
that. The other part of me says that experience sometimes outweighs as Comm. Feldman has
said, you can get a degree on line, and that really doesn't do you much good either. I think you
have to keep them both in, and you have to read between the lines as to who you are hiring; the
education and the ability to do the job. If we have to take a vote on this, I am agreeable to the
majority.
Commissioner Feldman— We have had experience in this Town with hiring high ranking people
who have had all the qualifications, degrees, etc., and I hate to say this, but some horrible
mistakes were made. I still stick to my thoughts of experience, certification and knowledge. If it
is somebody coming in, maybe we could require some other things, but we also have to take into
consideration somebody who is working here diligently for a number of years.
Vice Mayor Weitz—While I understand Comm. Feldman's and Comm. Stern's statements, many
of the arguments are fallacious. Number one is I said education is a critical component of a
criteria to apply. That doesn't guarantee you are going to get a perfect person, or the best person,
or a good person. Hiring is a very delicate procedure, and luckily we have a very adept, skillful,
capable, sensitive Town Manager to do the best she can in that process. The Commission
doesn't hire, the Town Manager does. The idea that we have made some mistakes, that there
have been some people hired and it didn't turn out well, and they happen to have an education, I
could make the same statement in the other alternative, but I choose not to at this time.
Secondly, the bottom line is that I am not suggesting that experience and longevity are relevant
factors. They are legitimate factors in the hiring process. All of us look at people to hire, look at
experience, look at training and longevity, but for many positions it requires a minimal
education. I don't know anybody in this room that is going to a physician or a medical person
without an MD or a DO. I don't know anybody that goes to a legitimate Psychologist and they
are not certified by the State, licensed by the State and have to have education criteria. The
reality is, if I go into a medical office and there has been a clerk there for 20 years and a
physician there 20 years, and the physician leaves, I am not hiring the clerk because they have
been there 20 years and have experience. The bottom line is these jobs require a level of
sophistication, education, and we all know about the diploma mills, thank you very much. I will
add that I want the hiring education to specify from an approved accredited university. We can
indicate a legitimate university. Clearly there are diploma mills, but that doesn't mean the
education is bad. It means the person did not get their degree from an accredited university. By
the way, it happens in Psychology. There are plenty of diploma mills in Psychology. The
Town Commission Regular Meeting Minutes
Tuesday, flay 3, 2016 Page 6 of 11
Boards rule that out, go through it, we have an expert here and they don't accept that as part of
the criteria. The fact is because they are a diploma mill; the fact is because we can hire the
wrong person; the fact is because we have hired some people that didn't work out, does not mean
the criteria is wrong. It means we just have to be more careful. In terms of financial managers,
CPA's and people who do taxes, if we just say you are in the office long enough, you can do it. I
don't buy that. I am sorry, and I am not trying to hurt anyone. The bottom line is that we have a
range of jobs in this Town, and the fact that somebody could do one job well does not mean that
thev should be allowed to become a supervisor or head of a department without the appropriate
credentials. That is my position, and I stand by it.
Mayor Featherman — I would say, if you do have a valued employee, you should consider
grandfathering them in, only if they are capable. However, on new employees, if they don't
meet the qualifications and we put it in the ad, I have to agree with you Vice Mayor Weitz. I
really feel it is important we have specifications. It will eliminate some people, but it will also
bring people to light who can do a good job.
Comm. Feldman—Mayor, I agree 100 percent with you. We not only have to look at but protect
our existing employees. If there is a chance for advancement, advance them first. Regardless,
they are doing a great job, we have somebody here. Hiring new employees could be part of the
qualifications and the requirements. As far as that one section in there, maybe it could be redone
for new and existing employees, rather than just make it across the board.
MOTION: Vice Mayor Weitz moved to eliminate the generic paragraph that says in spite of all
the criteria and all the documentation and requirements of the position, being around a long time
and having experience basically will override that. Motion was seconded by Commissioner
Zelniker.
Commission Discussion:
Comm. Feldman — Is there any way we can adopt something for existing employees for
advancement in that same paragraph. I will be quite frank with what we have now. We have a
Town Manager who does not have the education but she has the experience and the knowledge,
and we really have a winner here. Under that assumption, we wouldn't have the Town Manager
we have now, and I think that is wrong. I really think we have to consider ruling out certain
certifications and qualifications. If we can add something while we take something out, I will be
for it.
Vice Mayor Weitz —I would be willing to amend my motion to say for future hires.
Comm. Stern — I want to check with the Town Attorney. Does that cover it? Town Attorney
Torcivia — Yes, my understanding is for new hires the language that says a comparable amount
of training, education or experience may be substituted for the minimum qualifications will be
deleted for new hires only. Does not apply to existing employees. Comm. Feldman — What
about if a person is already employed in the Town. Town Attorney Torcivia—My understanding
is that it only applies for anybody hired after this date. Comm. Feldman — What happens if they
are hired from within the Town. If they are promoted. Town Attorney Torcivia — We may need
clarification because I am not sure what the intent was. In other words, if I am an employee of
the Town and I want to get promoted, does that paragraph apply to me or not. Maybe we can get
Town Commission Regular Meeting Minutes
Tuesday,lN1av 3, 2016 Pape 7 of 11
a consensus on what the intent was by the maker of the motion. Vice Mayor Weitz — The intent
is that when the Town Manager has a position that is vacant, she makes the decision as to what
the terms of the position require based on the job description and what the criteria are. I am
saying that the bottom line is that I want the generic statement removed because it is way too
broad, and it eliminates critical minimal factors. However, I would say that given the statements
of some of my fellow Commissioners that I respect, it would apply to new hires, and it would not
apply to existing employees. That would not take away the responsibility of the Town Manager
for ensuring that anybody that she was thinking of promoting, which she has the right to do,
would be able to perform adequately in the positions that are required. I differ a hire from
promotion, and she has the capability of promoting, which is within her powers.
The Commissioners all agreed that clarification was needed. Town Attorney Torcivia — Do you
want me to restate it the way I understood it? What I understood is, if you are a new hire, that
language is gone. If you are an existing employee that language stays, and if you are an existing
employee going for that promotion, that language stays.
Mayor Featherman — We have a motion and a second on that? Comm. Zelniker — I will second
the motion the way you have it read as long as somebody who is applying for the job can't say
that is discrimination. In other words, if you work here, you have an advantage because you
work here. My understanding is, and I have to use the judgement of the Town Manager which I
trust, there are certain jobs such as the Assistant Town Clerk that requires you have a certain
certification. So, if somebody is working here and would like to take that job, you don't need the
certification. That is what I am hearing.
Vice Mayor Weitz — There are two issues. One has to do with education, training and
experience. The other has to do with if the State of Florida requires a license or certification in
order to do a job, which still remains. It is not a Highland Beach determination. It is the State of
Florida, and if people don't come with the proper certifications, license or what is required to
practice whatever the profession is, that should be upheld by the Town Manager. Town Manager
Brown — Our hiring procedure is that we give a test to all the applicants who we feel meet the
qualifications, and then they are interviewed by a panel of three or four people. We try to bring
someone in from outside Highland Beach. Then this group of panelist make a recommendation,
number one and number two. You keep bringing up certification. I believe it says that you have
to be able to get certification within so many years. You don't have to be certified to come in.
j You have to be able to get certified within three years because that is how long the course takes.
We do a written test and a verbal test. You really need to have the knowledge to get the job.
Vice Mayor Weitz — Is that true for areas where there is specialized knowledge or technical
knowledge that would be required. I am not just talking about clerical or administrative, but is it
also true for any of our technical positions. Town Manager Brown — We just hired a part time
j maintenance person who worked for us for a while, so we knew his ability. Vice Mayor Weitz —
Do we give veteran's preference when we hire? Town Manager Brown — Yes, it is in our
personnel policy.
Town Attornev Torcivia read the motion for clarification as follows: The motion is to delete the
words from job descriptions "a comparable amount of training, education, experience may be
substituted for the minimal qualifications" for new hires. That will not apply for existing
employees and will not apply for existing employees applying for promotion.

Vice Mavor Weitz — The second part of my discussion has to do with the addition, if it wasn't

the duties section of all job descriptions listed for employment in Highland Beach.
MOTION: Vice Mayor Weitz moved to include the statement "and all duties as assigned by the
Supervisor" in all job descriptions. Motion was seconded by Commissioner Stern.
Commission Discussion:
Comm. Feldman — Isn't that in there now? I thought if you take a position, and you are asked to
do something other than that position, you are expected to do it. Town Manager Brown — It is in
one section, but at the last meeting Vice Mayor Weitz wanted it included in specific job
description qualifications. It is in general now, but he also wants it included further.

8. MISCELLANEOUS ITEMS — LEFT OVER:
None.
9. REPORTS—TOWN COMMISSION:
A) Commissioner Zelniker — I am pleased that we are going forward with the drainage project and
want to thank PWD Ed Soper. In response to Dennis Dowd's comments regarding Coronado, I
would like to have this issue put on the nest workshop meeting for a discussion. However, your
manager and treasurer should have been the first people to spot this. We all have to take a little
bit of responsibility, and I know you have agreed to that. There have been numerous discussions
regarding boatlifts. These docks belong to private homes and have dock rights, none of which
belong to the Town of Highland Beach. This has to do with your Condominium Association
Town Commission Regular Meeting Minutes
Tuesdav,i�lay 3, 2016 Page 9 of 11
Documents. Also, there is no ordinance as to the amount of dogs one person could own. Again
this would have to fall under your Condominium Association Documents.
B) Commissioner Feldman — We have three meetings scheduled within the next two weeks to
discuss the fire contract; one with City of Delray Beach, one with Palm Beach County and one
with the barrier islands. I feel that by nest month we will definitely be close to a final decision.
There was a water report in the Highlander and many people did not understand it, including
myself. We should have a report from Ed Soper to help us with the report, and let us know- what
is going on with the water. I am not sure what we could do about the money charged for the large
usage of water. I do agree with Comm. Zelniker that it is your obligation to investigate if you see
your water bill escalating. You need to report it immediately. When PWD Soper gives us a
report on the water, he should also give us an update on the new water lines going in, when we
can expect them to go in, and what we should prepare for.
C) Commissioner Stern — I would like to congratulate Police Chief Hartmann and our Police
Department upon receiving their Accreditation Certificate. Regarding the water issue, I don't
think it is fair to put it on the agenda, since there is a water study going on now. We don't have
any answers _yet as to what the new rates are going to be. We have had one presentation, and we
need more presentations. We don't know how we can save the person who has the leak. I know it
could be very frustrating. I have discussed this with PWD Sope,r and he indicated that the new
equipment and software we just purchased is supposed to detect a leak, which it does. He pointed
out that with condominiums, water is always running. You will not know if it is a leak or water
being used. It is really your responsibility if you see your water bill jump so high. In addition,
when you talk about dogs, our association limits you to two dogs per unit. That is something you
have to have put into your documents. Same goes for boats and boatlifts. These are things the
Town cannot control. Also, in the Town of Highland Beach, no one is guaranteed a view. I have
an article that states the Boca Raton Airport Authority is working on an immigrations building,
and they are very much on target to have it ready this fall.
D) Vice Mayor Weitz — I also want to congratulate Chief Hartmann and the Police Department
Staff. I thank Mr. Dowd for bringing the issue of the water leak to our attention. This is
obviously not the meeting to discuss the specifics but we will have a discussion in the future
regarding this, and hopefully we can find some way to remediate some of the charges incurred by
your condominium association. I agree with my fellow Commissioners that it is your
responsibility to address this when charges start dramatically rising. However, we do try to be
sensitive to our residents. We have a fantastic Italian American Club of Highland Beach with
certain members who are officers from the Town. They do tremendous things in terms of
scholarships, civic events and fundraising for a variety of causes. I want to acknowledge them for
their efforts. I also want to congratulate our Mayor for many productive years and continued
productive years of youthfulness. Happy Birthday to Mayor Featherman.
F.) Mayor Bernard Featherman — I also want to support the Italian American Club and the people
of Highland Beach. We are also concerned about the issues with the water. Hopefully we can
come to some solution to these problems.

10. REPORTS—TOWN ATTORNEY GLEN TORCIVIA:
No report. Happy Birthday to you, Mayor.
11. REPORTS —TOWN MANAGER BEVERLY BROWN:
Commissioner Stern requested that we look at the water rates, and what we could do to eliminate the
tier when somebody has a water leak that brings them up to a much higher paying tier. We are
working on this but are not prepared to come forward yet. We did the water rate study, and Florida
law requires us to have a public hearing. We will have to notify all the water rate people here in
Town. It will be coming up within the next two months. It was Florida Law Enforcement that
awarded our Police Department the accreditation. They are no longer listed as a small town Police
Department. We are very proud of them and the work they have done.
Happy Birthday Mayor. I would like to invite everyone into the main Town Hall for a piece of
birthday cake and sing Happy Birthday to the Mayor after the meeting is over.
12. PUBLIC COMMENTS AND REQUESTS RELATED TO AGENDA ITEMS DISCUSSED AT
MEETING ONLY:
Paul Resnick, 4740 S. Ocean Blvd. — I listened to and accept all that was said about the docks.
However, there is one issue that I need to point out. You need a permit to put in a boatlift and a dock.
You don't need a permit to put in a floating dock. Please do something about that. I believe it is in
your power to do so.
Dennis Dowd, 3400 S. Ocean Blvd. —Thank you for all your consideration. This is definitely a shared
responsibility. Going back to our leak, it was a very insidious progression going back to 2012. We
now have a newly elected Board and are getting into some of our issues. As a retired Police Chief
from New Jersey,'I know what the accreditation process is, and I want to congratulate them.
Dear Mr. Mayor and Commissioner, 5/3/2016
My name is Dennis P. Dowd and I am a member of the Board of Directors for the Coronado
Ocean Club. I come to you today seeking your assistance and hopefully an accommodation for a
problem we have been suffering for quite some time.
We have recently discovered and remediated a significant water leak that has been occurring
for a few years at a progressively escalating pace. Our usage since December 2013 thru
December of 2015 has increased a staggering 52%. Our most recent bills from the last two
billing periods, covering 4 months usage, have been $72,228.00 and $70,641.00 respectively for
a total of$142869.00.
In an unscientific comparison, using information from Highland Beach finance department, for
the same time periods Seagate Condominiums billing records show a total of$31,745.00 and
$30,836.00 for a total of$62,581.00. Ambassador Condominiums show usage $33,456.00 and
$32,891.00 for a total of$66,347.00. Clearly, we have more than double the usage of two
substantially similar complexes in all respects.
I ask that you make an exception to your current regulations and ordinances and allow for some
form of rebate or credit to give us some much needed financial relief.
If my immediate request is denied, I am aware that the commission is contemplating an
amendment to current law that would allow for just such relief on a "one time" basis. If this
change in the law comes to fruition then I ask we be grandfathered, based on my current
request and be an early beneficiary of this legal change.
I fully understand that Coronado may have been asleep at the switch but we have many other
bills and a nearly concluded enormous construction project, occupying our minds and time.
I would have hoped that the Town of Highland Beach would have some form of red flagging on
either it's metering or billing software that, in my opinion, should have prompted some type of
notification of the magnitude of our leakage and loss of such significant amounts of water.
I thank you all for your service to our community and consideration.
Sincerely,
Dennis P. Dowd
Vice President of the Board of Directors
Coronado Ocean Club Association
