Boynton Beach, FL. 33435
RE: REQUEST FOR WAIVERS _ QUANTUM VILLAGE AT QUANTUM
PARK (RESIDENTIAL PORTIONS OF LOTS MU 83-88, ALL OF LOT 89B)
Dear Mr. Rumpf:
Pursuant to the City of Boynton Beach Code of ordinances _ Part III - Land Development
Regulations - Chapter 2- Zoning, Section 7- Planned Industrial Development District, and
Chapter 2, Section 11 - Supplemental Rcgulatibm, waivers are hereby requested for
Quantum Village at Quantum Park. The waivers will pertain to lots MU 83 through MU 88,
located north of Gateway Boulevard, west of High Ridge Road;
89B, located north of Gateway Boulevard, and Office/Indnstrial Parcel
east of High Ridge Road. A Notice of Proposed
Change aud Master Plan Amendment have been filed simultaneously with the City to COnvert '
Parcel 89B from office to mixed use.
BACKGROUND/HISTORiCAL PETITION INFORMATION:
Q~mnn,~m Park is a Development of Rt~onal Impact approved in 1984. The Development
Order granted for the park has been amended since its original a~topfion. The amendment that
allows residential land uses within the Park is Amendment No. I0 that "simultaneously
increased the commercial intensifies and decreased thc office and industrial intensities. The
~- ,~,q-,~.,~ m~t nor. aolv ov not; ...... .~ . o addfaonal
Annual - - ~,--~-~mg me total traffic generated" (Quantum Park
Status Report - March 2002).
Parcels MU 83 through MU 88 have Master Plan approval that will al/ow development of the
proposed COmmercial and residential land uses. The commercial land uses will face Gateway
Boulevard and the balance of the property will be developed az towuhomes. The action
required by City Council to accomplish this request is granting of the waivers outlined later in
this letter.
A master plan amendment and Notice of Proposed Change have been submitted for Parcel
89B that need to be approved prior to the ga-anting of waivers to allow the townhomes
proposed for the parcel.
WAIVERS A,~D SUPPORTING JUSIFICATION:
Below is a list of the waivers and supporting justification from the City of Boynt0n Beach'
Code of Ordinances Part III - Land Development Regulations Chapter 2 - Zoning, Section 7
- Planned Industrial Development District and Section 11 - Supplemental Design Standards.
Mr. Michael Rumpf, Director
City of Boynto. Be~ch

Part III - Ch. 2, Section 7 - II. Design Criteria: 15. Distance between buildings: Waiver of 5 feet to
allow a reduction in the minimum distance fi.om 25 feet to 20 feet. This waiver applies only to Parcel MU
87.
Justification: This is a residential pod that would typically be subjeot to the regulations contained in the
R-3 Multitaraily Zoning Distriot, which requires only a twenty-foot minimum building separation. The
twenty five foot building separation required in the PIDD applies to industrial or commercial buildings
that are allowed by Code a greater Floor Area R~io and building height that what is contemplated with
this two story town home development. It is also importam to note that the City's code contemplated the
'separation would apply to buildin~ being on the "same lot or parcel of land" whereas the town homes
will be fee simple ownership. The town house design presented based upon the twenty-foot separation is
typical for a residential project, and in some jurisdictions, less building separation is actually required.
Part III - Ch. 2, Section 7 H. Design Criteria: 16. District setbacks:
Waiver of 10 feet to allow a reduction in the rear yard setback fi.om 30 feet to 20 feet. This waiver applies
only to Parcel 89B.
Justification: This waiver will apply to fourteen town homes located along thc north property lin~ Of
Parcel 89B. The rcduotion in width is located on thc rear p~vl~erty linc in a remote area of the overall
project. This reduction is therefore the least disruptive to the design of the overall project, which provides
for greater open space and building separation in other axeas of thc parcel. The adjacent land uses already
exist, and screening of the town homes from those adjacent uses has been addressed in the landscape plan
by the provision Ora wall and landscape material.
Part HI - Ch. 2, Section 7 H. Design Criteria: 17: Peripheral greenbelt:
Waiver often feet to allow a reduction in the peripheral buffer where adjacent to residemial fi.om 40 feet
to 30 feet (Lots MU 83, 87 & 88); waiver of 5 feet to allow a reduction in the peripheral buffer fi.om 25
feet to 20 feet (Lot 89B).
Justification: Lots MU 83, 87 and 88 are adjacent to an area that carries a non-conforming residential
zoning disWiet although thc underlying Comprehensive Plan land usc desi?ation is Industrial. The
purpose of the 40-foot buffer was to shield the residential land uses located on the west property line of
the Park fi.om future residential development. The antieipatad development p~n~m for thc Park was non-
residential; however, changes made to the DR/Master Plan now allow residential land uses within the
park reducing the potential for land use conflicts along the perimeter of the park that the forty foot buffer
requirement was supposed to addr~s. Although the future land use d~L~.adca of the garcci adjacent to
MU 83, 87 and 88 is industrial, it is questionable tithe property will actually develop ns such based upon
the amount of land area that rexlminn within Quantllm Park that is more readily available.
The north property linc of Parcel 89B would normally require a 25 foot buffer. Thc reduction of thc
buffer width reduce~ the potential for other waivers within thc parcel, such as building setbacks or parcel
setbacks. The uses adjacent to the park in this area have already been established and the town homes can
be adequately screened as depicted on the landscape plan.
EXHIBIT "C"
Part III Chapter 2, Section 11 - Supplemental Regulations, H. Provision of off-street parking
spaces - No. 2
Waiver of 3 feet to allow a reduction in thc minimum 12-foot width required for thc first parking space
(applies to MU 83 through MU 88 and Parcel 89B)
J'ustificat~on: This regulation requires thc first required parking spaces that arc not within a ga.age to be a
minimum of twelve feet m width. It is quesnonable ffthis provision should apply. Th~ regulation states
that "for all r~uired residential district partc/ng spaces not withill all ellclosed gBl~lg~, [he ~ park:illg
space shall be a minimum of twelve feet". All of[he town home units have a single car garage. Therefore,
the. parking space outside of[he garage is technically [he second space. Notwithstanding this variation, a
wmver ~s requested that reduces the "first space" to 9 feet m width for units that have a single car
driveway m front of the 8arage. The three-foot reduction allows for more open space and landscaping in
thc front yard, enhancing [he overall appearance of thc community. The single car driveway provides
sufficient maneuvering area because the length of the space is meaty feet, which is two feet longer than
required by code. This allows the vehicle to be simat,vl fully within [he driveway, and prevents any
overhang of the vehicle into [he sidewalk. Since these are privato driveways, there is not turnover of
vehicles using the space.
foot wide drive aisle It should_also be noted that a portion of[he units have been designed with a 19
and therefore the waiver will not pertain to all of the spaces.

48. The underlying land use is "mixed use". Staff strongly endorses
incorporating a mixture of residential and commercial uses within the

49. Staff recommends that the residential component be designed more
architecturally compatible with the character of "Building "E" (i.e. with
the addition of towers and more diverse roof articulation, similar window X
