Mayor Penserga requested to hear from staff.
Luis Benscome, Principal Planner, stated that staff does not have much to add, and
mentioned that it a small alley and that it does not have a public purpose. He noted that
staff recommends approval.
Commissioner Cruz stated that the residents asked if this will increase the density of the
site.
Amanda Radigan, Planning and Development Director, stated that the abandonment will
not affect the project, unless the entire project was brought forth to the City Commission
to rezone the parcel. She confirmed that it would not affect the density.
Commissioner Cruz stated that the concerns of the residents have been the moving of
the Andrews House and getting funding in exchange for this piece of property. She
mentioned that she has had conversations with all parties and asked about expanding
the art fee to move historic structures, because the 1% can be significant. She asked if
there is consensus to open that avenue.
Ms. Miskel clarified the point about the law, that her developer refrained from exercising
his right to demolish the Andrews House. She said that this is a great suggestion, but he
has no legal obligation to keep the structure or pay for moving it, but he is willing to help
the City.
Ms. Radigan spoke about expanding the art fee and some of the things they could use
the funds for. She said that the developer is now interested in moving the property and
using it for a public purpose. She mentioned that there are many possible options, and
that what it suggested would require a code amendment.
Commissioner Cruz asked if they can have a code amendment to allow for the use of the
art fee to move the Andrews House.
Ms. Radigan stated that it does not have a historic designation, so she does not want to
tie up the funds on historic purposes if it is not going to be able to be used for this.
Commissioner Turkin stated that he is glad to hear about the expansion of the art fee. He
asked for clarification on the timeline of why this is just now being requested.
Ms. Radigan spoke about the site plan and the abandonment history, and the benefits to
the City for this.
Commissioner Turkin asked if this is City initiated.
Ms. Radigan said that the City did not initiate it, but it came out of the conversation of
cleaning up the plat.
Minutes
City Commission Meeting
Boynton Beach, FL February 4, 2025
Commissioner Turkin asked if we could legally ask for something in return.
City Attorney Lamb spoke about the quasi-judicial capacity and being strict about what is
approved and not approved. She explained what they could and could not ask for.
Ms. Miskel clarified that there are other partners in the deal, so these are two separate
developers.
City Attorney Lamb continued clarifying what is prohibited and not being able to use
conditions to approve this.
Commissioner Turkin spoke about a deed restriction and appraised values of our
properties. He thanked the client for preserving the house and said that he would like to
have the Andrews House Board at the table, so there is communication. He said that the
meeting would be next Saturday morning. He asked for a point of contact from the City
for weekly check-ins on this property.
Mayor Penserga opened to public comment.
Susan Oyer stated that this easement has value to it, and it belongs to the City, and we
should not just give it to someone. She spoke about the funding options for the movement
of the Andrews House.

first reading. He said that as Bonnie pointed out, there are a lot of smart people in the
room, and he is optimistic that it will work out.

the county, and we should go with their recommendation. He spoke about the developer
budgeting the demolition of the house and apply it to the move of the house.

owned by the same developers, and she understands not being able to make a deal for
this parcel. She said that we are going to have another bite of the apple and that she
appreciates everyone not giving up on this.
Mayor Penserga closed public comment.
City Attorney Lamb stated that the LDRs and current code does not allow for the appraisal
and assessing the value of the abandonment.
Ms. Miskel spoke about the surplusing provision in the state law, where the appraisal can
be done.
Ms. Radigan clarified that should the applicant do a Live Local Project, the site plan would
not come to Commission. She said that there will be other applications that are required
11
that will have to come before the Commission and they could negotiate then.
Commissioner Cruz asked for an update on the study she requested last time, to move
the Andrews House.
Deputy City Manager Mack stated that they are waiting on direction from the CRA
Director. He mentioned that there is missing information, and a written agreement.

collected out of the City and only $2 million came back to the City.
Mr. Paul spoke about the disparity of the City paying the most and getting the least back.
Mayor Penserga said that he supports this mobility fee because we need to invest the
money back into our own transportation needs. He said that we have been neglected in
the process, by the County.
Vice Mayor Kelley stated that we have several County and FDOT roads, and asked how
do we set aside money for us to have funds to do the City's projects.
Mr. Paul said that we could offer to the County that we use the funds to make
improvements on the roadway, with their permission.
Vice Mayor Kelley asked Mr. Paul if he is seeing cooperation with the County and State
when it comes to roads, when we have the funding mechanism. She mentioned that we
run into hiccups because our major roads do not belong to us.
Mr. Paul responded that it has been very successful to advance and leverage projects.
He said that PBC has been difficult, but Palm Beach Gardens has gone fully into this. He
mentioned other municipalities that have moved forward with this, such as Palm Springs.
He said that his hope is that there will be a greater level of cooperation.
Ms. Radigan mentioned that she does not believe we will be in a worse position, because
we will have more funding coming into the City and can negotiate.
Vice Mayor Kelley said that this is a long time coming and she is excited to see this moving
forward.
Commissioner Hay spoke about going with a mobility fee vs the impact fee, and asked
what measures are in place to ensure that low-income communities are not
disproportionally paying fees.
Mr. Paul spoke about establishing a program to waive fees for affordable housing, which
13
is allowed by Florida Statutes.
Commissioner Hay asked about development being charged a flat rate or by square
footage.
Mr. Paul spoke about the difference.
Ms. Radigan stated that this decision was discussed and spoke about the decision that
they went with. She mentioned that underserved areas, they want to make sure that
mobility is in those areas.
Commissioner Hay asked about the long-term mobility and sustainability plan.
Ms. Radigan explained the history of what has been done, and what will happen if this is
adopted.
Deputy City Manager Mack asked if housing fund dollars could be used to offset the
mobility fees.
Ms. Radigan spoke about the credits that could be used on existing fees, and the different
options that they could go with.
Commissioner Turkin asked if we still have time to play around with what those fees look
like.
Mr. Paul confirmed that they are scheduled for the 18th, but they could push this back.
Commissioner Turkin spoke about incentivizing the residents regarding these fees. He
asked if there is a minimum of the size of the units, because he does not want
developers to build smaller units to avoid the fee.
Ms. Radigan explained that they could do per unit instead of per square foot.
Vice Mayor Turkin reiterated incentivizing residents that build single family homes.
Motion:
Commissioner Cruz moved to approve Ordinance No 25-002, on first reading.
