in are effort to square off the City's boundaries. Soma of the proposed

requested the City Council give him authorization to file the necessary
documents to proceed with these annexations. The City Manager stated a
third annexation would be for the "Garden of Woodberry" development which
has requested to be annexed into the City.
Councilman Alored expressed his dissatisfaction with annexing land on the
east side of the Intracoastal, and would have trouble annexing lands north
E
CITY COUVCIL REGULAR MEETING, 1213187 PAGE 3
of Donald Rors Road; however, felt since Frenchmen's Creek was one entity,
unC it od annexing that portion north of Donald Ross Road. Vice Mayor
Martino suggested the City Manager proceed with the annexation ads as they
stand, however, take out what the Council does not agree to at a later
date. Councilman wiselewskl suggested that soon after these ads were
,published the City meet with the Town of Jupiter and Juno to satisfy any
concerns. City Attorney Bill Brant confirmed that the Council can proceed
with the advertisements as written, how =ver, before the annexations go
before the voters, sections can be taken out should the Council decide to
VV .SU.
Mayor Feeney read a letter received from the Town Manager of Jupiter
requesting the City postpone any consideration of annexation north of
Donald Ross Road until discussions can be held by the Jupiter City Council
as well as the County Commissioners.
Ms. Gail Nelson, City Clerk of Junc Beach, presented she Council with a
map showing Juno's reserve annexation arl,a, which was the property east of
the Intracoastal Waterway. The Mayor requested Ms. Nelson convey to the
City Council of Juno that the Palm Beach Gardens Council expressed concern
re: annexing property east of the Intracoastal Waterway.
Councilman Aldred stated he would vote for the procedure, understanding
that 'e cannot 7pprove of annexing land east of the Intracoastal Waterway
:!nd encroach an property that he views as Juno Beach's. If the Ordinance
includes this property, he would have to vote against it. Councilman
Aldred felt the City needed to have a meeting with Jupiter to determine if
a solution was available to satisfy both parties re: Frenchmen's Creek
area. Councilman Aldred believed that communities that wished to be
CITY COLNCIL REGULAR MEETING, 1213187 PAGE 4
annexed into the City have the right, and should be -,-.,corded the oppo.-
. tunity, to vote on the issue; and essentially believed they had the right
to s.lt- determination. Councilman Kiselewski expressed the saute thoughts
as Councilman Aldred. Councilwoman Monroe questioned whether the City had
coordinated with the surrounding municipalities, as per the City's
Comprehensive Plan, in the planning effort. Councilwoman Monroe stated on
June 4th, vice Mayor Martino stated he would like to talk to the r,lajor
local landowner re: annexation; on June 18th, there was a reference to a
letter from Vice Mayor Martino to the major local landowner stating the
City would like to move forward with annexation of properties; however,
the only concensus of the Council was there be a workshoo with the major
landowners to participate, to discuss possible annexations. Councilwoman
Monroe felt the Council should have had more time to review these proposed
annexations before the decision tonight to have it advertised. Vice Mayor
® Martino stated this annexation is not motivated by oclitics, however,
viewed it as a step the north County needed. Vice Mayor Martino stated
that the City of Palm Beach Gardens, as well as the surrounding municipa-
lities, should annex those areas mapped out as their reserve annexation
areas, in order to avoid the same problems that are now being faced by the
south County.
Per a vote of 4 ayes to 1 nay, with Councilwoman Monroe casting the nay
vote, the Council authorized the City Manager to proceed with the proposed
annexation procedure. Councilwoman Monroe voted nay since she felt there
was not enough time to review the proposed annexation.
The City Council requested the City Manager set up a meetinq with the
County, Jueiter and Juno Beach to discuss the proposed annexations.
