Mayor Taylor commented that the City has worked very hard to see this project come to
fruition. There were many stumbling blocks even up to the last three or four months. When it
appeared that nothing else could be done to bring this project to Boynton Beach, the City
Manager and City Attorney took over. Without those efforts, we might not have seen this
project move forward. Mayor Taylor commended them for the outstanding job they did.
Vice Mayor ]askiewicz remarked that it is much easier to begin a project with a new
development than to redevelop one. This was a challenge that was met.

Vice Mayor Jaskiewicz is in support of this award, but questioned whether this equipment would
repair a leak as well as identify it. John Guidry, Utilities Director, responded affirmatively and
explained that it is a two-step process.
Motion
Commissioner Titcomb moved to approve Item B.2. Commissioner Denahan seconded the
motion that carried unanimously.
Commissioner Titcomb requested an opportunity to remark on Item IV-C.3, "Barista Way". He
reported that several years ago, the City of Delray Beach used the naming of alleys as a fund
raiser for the City. All of the alleyways and back streets were put on the auction block. The
highest bidder was permitted to select the name. Commissioner Titcomb suggested that the
City of Boynton Beach consider this same type of proposal in our downtown.
D.2. Habitat for Humanity (3ohn Shelly) - (NW Sth Avenue) -
Request for a variance to allow a 4.7 foot reduction from
the required 2S foot front yard setback to 20.3 feet and a
9.8 foot reduction from the required 2S foot rear yard

reduction from the rear setback from 25 feet to 20 feet on
a second adjacent lot for the purpose of constructing two

Commissioner Titcomb advised that he attended the groundbreaking for the Habitat for
Humanity on NW 5th Avenue and 1-95. In his experience with the T.E.D. Center, their work has
had a tremendous positive impact on the surrounding neighborhood. This groundbreaking
followed the dedication of Palmetto Greens Park and the groundbreaking for the marina project.
Motion
Commissioner Titcomb moved approval. Commissioner Denahan seconded the motion.
Mayor Taylor acknowledged the presence of John Shelly of Habitat for Humanity, in the
audience. Two new homes will be constructed on those lots. In addition, there is another item
on the agenda to approve the purchase of additional vacant lots that would result in the

The motion carried unanimously.

Orchard Landing (M. 3effrey Semko) - (East of US #1
approximately 185' south of Golf Road) - Request for
variance approval to allow a 75' reduction from the
required 100' minimum lot frontage requirement; a
reduction to 25; in preparation for construction of 20
condominium units on an irregularly-shaped parcel
Vice Mayor .laskiewicz requested a presentation of this item.
Howard Nelson~ Attorney with Bilzin Sumberq Dunn Price & Axelrod reported that this
request went before the Planning & Development Board as a variance from Section 5.G.2. The
Code requires a 100' frontage on a public or private road for any residential development. The
property in question is known as a "flagpole" or "lollipop" lot. The lot begins at Federal
Highway with a 25' frontage. ]:t proceeds approximately 340' back along a 25' wide space to
the entirety of the property that is 184'. The property was subdivided in the mid-1970s prior to
the frontage requirements. At the time of subdivision, it met the City's requirements. This is a
simple variance. A site plan is processing through the system and will come before the City
within the next several months pending resolution of this issue.
This request falls under the six criteria for variances in the City. ]:t is the minimum variance that
could be requested to comply with Code. Without the variance, there is no residential use that
could be put on this property. ]:t is too small for a PUD that would release the frontage
requirements. There originally was a plan for three single-family houses. That fell through.
that project had gone forward to the board, it still would have needed a variance.
At the Planning & Development Board meeting, IVlr. Nelson advised Hr. Lichtman of an old case
dating back to 1962 from Coral Gables. :It is good law and it is very close to this case where the
3rd District Court of Appeals said the variance is grantable on these types of parcels. The
reason for that decision was that the failure to grant the variance removed any use from the
property.
The applicant requested to rest on the strength of staff's recommendations and the issues of
the nature of hardship brought forward. Mr. Nelson requested an opportunity to rebut any
comments and answer any questions.
Vice Mayor .laskiewicz reminded the Commissioners that this came before the Commission a
number of years ago with a proposal to put high density (20 units per acre) on the parcel. She
inquired as to the size of the property. Mr. Nelson advised that the property is 2 (plus or
minus) acres. He reminded the Commissioners that there was an assemblage proposal.
However, it failed under four or five potential assemblages because some of the six parcels
needed did not want to participate.
MEETING MINUTES
REGULAR CITY COMMISSION*
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA
SEPTEMBER 15, 1998
In response to Vice Mayor .laskiewicz, Mr. Nelson confirmed that there is no other potential
access to the property available other than the 25' strip.
Attorney Cherof advised that the configuration of this property is the type of configuration that
gives rise to the hardship element under existing case law.
Mayor Taylor questioned whether or not the Streb's property is for sale. Mr. Nelson said the
frontage of the Streb's parcel is the only part of the property that is potentially developable.
The rear parcel is the most undevelopable parcel remaining in the City because it contains
White Mangrove trees and a mangrove nursery area.
Mayor Taylor expressed concern over the fact that the City is trying to upgrade housing stock in
the City and reducing this frontage requirement by three-quarters is not what the City is trying
to do.
Mr. Nelson explained that the frontage is 25'. Without the variance, the property cannot be
developed. The applicant believes he will be able to produce a site plan that will please the
residents of the City.
Commissioner litcomb pointed out that the Commission was being asked to review a variance
request paying no attention to the implied usage of the land. He questioned whether or not
usage should be considered in conjunction with applying the variance. Attorney Cherof
explained that the Commission could consider all types of factors because it has the authority to
impose conditions upon the granting of a variance. Attorney Cherof also explained that the
Commission could carry this matter over for a more detailed public hearing with appropriate
notice to the adjacent property owners.
Maurice Rosenstock, One Villa Lane, member of the Planning & Development Board,
said the Planning & Development Board unanimously denied this request because it did not
comply with all of the criteria. He feels there is a higher and better use for this property on the
Intracoastal Waterway. The board does not want to see that property "polluted" with compact
developments. The board members would like the Code changed with regard to what can be
built on the Tntracoastal. He questioned why houses must be developed on this parcel. He
suggested developing a park or something that will benefit the City. He urged the
Commissioners to be very careful about what they allow to be built on prime property, He feels
the property owner knew of the property's restrictions when he purchased the parcel. Mr.
Rosenstock recommended that the developer purchase additional properties to fit our rules,
Mr. Nelson expressed concern about Mr. Rosenstock's suggestion to use the land for a park. He
requested that the record reflect that the request before the board is a simple variance request
for any use on the property. The site plan is not before the Commission. There is no zoning in
progress nor is there any planning in progress to prevent development of this property. Action
to deny the variance eliminates all development rights from the property. There was no
evidence produced at the board meeting that the applicant knew of the regulations or knew he
had a non-conforming frontage.

Titcomb seconded the motion.
Attorney Cherof recommended that the Commission table the proposed Development Order
which has been removed from the Consent Agenda to a date certain to ensure that proper
notice and opportunity to be heard is provided to the applicant, the public and any other
interested parties.
Vice Mayor .]askiewicz rescinded her previous motion.
Motion
Vice Mayor .]askiewicz moved that the Commission table the proposed Development Order to
the October 20th City Commission meeting. Commissioner Titcomb seconded the motion.
Mr. Nelson requested that this item be continued to the first meeting in November since he will

Vice Mayor .]askiewicz agreed to amend her motion to table this Development Order to the

Original Pancake House (Hendrik DeMello) - (Northside of
Gateway Boulevard, immediately east of the Hampton
Tnn) - Request for variance approval to reduce the
required side setback from 20' to :L6' to allow sufficient
space for a proposed restaurant and required parking
Hendrik DeMello, Architect for the Original Pancake House, explained that the request
for a variance was to reduce the side setback from 20' to 16'. The applicant attempted to work
with different schemes; however, that resulted in problems with the parking spaces. They
could manage the site differently, but it would create site circulation that is not ideal. The ideal
design and site circulation dictates that cars should be moved away from the entrance on
Gateway Boulevard. The applicant feels the layout they propose still complies with the
landscape requirements and impervious area calculations. The applicant now proposes to
include more landscaping in the area to make up for the 4' variance. Mr. DeMello stated that all
of the parking would be along the eastside of the property. The building is situated so that the
setbacks will not be a problem visually. Mr. DeMello agreed to add more trees and shrubs in
the strip. Staff has required the addition of a hedge along the building.
Mr. DeMello explained that the Original Pancake House would not be sharing parking with the
Hampton :Inn. They can each support their own parking; however, they have a cross-access
agreement.

Vice Mayor .laskiewicz requested that the applicant continue the landscaping in an effort to
separate the parking between the Original Pancake House and the Hampton Tnn. Mr. DeMello
agreed to this request.
Commissioner Denahan requested the addition of larger trees, closer together.
Commissioner Titcomb questioned whether a setback was required between the parking spaces
for the Hampton Inn and those of the Original Pancake House. Mr. DeMello said there is a 5'
setback on the Hampton ]:nn side of the parcel.
Steve Kamelhair, owner, explained that he would not have a problem extending the landscaping
if the Hampton Tnn agrees to allow them to do that. Mr. Kamelhair does not anticipate a
problem because he is purchasing the property from the Hampton Tnn and the sale of the
property is contingent upon the Commission's approval of the variance request.
Maurice Rosenstock explained that the Planning & Development Board denied this request
because of the lack of landscaping. The board requested that the applicant plant a Ficus hedge
and some trees close together to soften the project. He was pleased that the applicant had
agreed to comply with those requests.
Lee Wische, 1302 SW 18th Street, was the only Planning & Development Board member
who voted in favor of this project because he felt these details could be worked out. He
believes the Planning & Development Board would vote in favor of this request as a result of
this presentation.
Mike Friedland, 330 NE 26th Avenue, member of the Planning & Development Board, urged
the Commission to vote in favor of this request.
Commissioner Denahan asked Mr. Rumpf to explain the requirements for size of trees and
space between trees. Mr. Rumpf explained that there is no requirement for trees to be placed
in the location in question. Trees along the frontage of the property need to be one tree per
Commissioner Denahan feels the parking lot needs shade. The entire landscaping plan would
be improved if trees were planted among the hedges. She recommended the use of native
trees. Mr. DeMello explained that the roots of the trees would damage the asphalt. Mr.
Rosenstock suggested that the applicant plant Queen Palm trees along with the hedge.
3im Reed, 2458 Cranbrook Drive, member of the Planning & Development Board,
pointed out that the fact that trees would damage the asphalt in such a small area is a good
reason for not granting the variance. He said there are six criteria to be met for granting a
variance. Mr. Reed feels the developer could change the size of the building, decrease the
amount of parking, or decrease the amount of greenspace. The developer chose not to
decrease the size of the building or the amount of parking. Mr. Reed feels the City has too
stringent a parking requirement for restaurants. He recommended increasing the greenspace
and having a cross-parking agreement with the Hampton Tnn. Mr. Reed further explained that
MEETING MINUTES
REGULAR CITY COMMISSION
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA
SEPTEMBER 15, :L998
there were a couple of criteria that the applicant did not meet in order for the board to grant
the variance. The variance is not the only way the applicant can make use of the property.
Mayor Taylor feels the applicant can "beef up" the landscaping to more than the Code requires
and put a hedge on property owned by the Hampton Inn. Mayor Taylor will support this
request.
Commissioner Titcomb advised that he believed there was a solution in the developer trying to
increase the landscaping above and beyond the minimum requirements to make up for the
small strip that will be lost. This is a quality project in an appropriate place.
Commissioner Denahan said she would support this request if she could see the landscaping
plan. She requested the definition of "beef it up". Mayor Taylor advised that the applicant
would add the entire border between the Hampton Tnn and the Original Pancake House.
Commissioner Denahan said she would like to see the trees closer together on the entire site.
Mr. DeMello advised that the applicant has increased the number of trees along the east
property line and along Gateway Boulevard. The existing approved perimeter landscaping will
be increased with the Original Pancake House plan.
Commissioner Titcomb requested the addition of Palm trees in the 5' strip to break up the
space. He does not feel the hedge alone will provide a sense of greenspace. Mr. Kamelhair
agreed to plant four (4) Palm trees in this 5' strip mixed in with a Cocoplum hedge.
Motion
Commissioner Titcomb moved to approve this project with that stipulation of adding a minimum
of four (4) Palm trees along the 5' strip north of the building and any enhancement above and
beyond minimum in the 16' strip along the eastside of the building. Vice Mayor _laskiewicz
seconded the motion with all the conditions of approval as set forth in Exhibit "D". The motion
carried 4-0.

Vice Mayor .laskiewicz moved to remove Items G, H and I from the table. Commissioner
Titcomb seconded the motion that carried 4-0.
Commissioner Denahan noted that this was the first time Code Compliance Board ratifications
appeared on the Consent Agenda. She reminded the Commissioners that they refused to
reduce a lien last month in the case of an absentee landlord. In these cases, the violator is a
major developer. In addition, she requested clarification of the abatement costs with respect to
Item IV-I.
Scott Blasie, Code Compliance Administrator, advised that this was the first time the Code
Compliance Board issued an Order to abate a nuisance as part of the lien reduction package.
Staff recommends that the Commission include the $1,033.69 as part of the reduction in
addition to $730.15. The applicant agreed that this would not present a problem.
Mayor Taylor advised that he considers each case individuallyi In reviewing the back-up
information, he was willing to accept staff's recommendation so that the property can be turned
into something positive for the community.
In response to Vice Mayor .laskiewicz', Mr. Blasie reported that these are not foreclosed
properties. The present developer is economically unable to complete the project. There is a
buyer for the project. The Code Compliance Board feels this is a way to satisfy the 80 to 100
homeowners in this project. Mr. Blasie reminded the Commissioners that each case must be
judged on its own merit.
Commissioner Titcomb feels this recommendation will solve a problem rather than having the
properties sit stagnant. He will support staff's recommendation.
Motion
Commissioner Titcomb moved approval of the Code Compliance Board's actions on Items G, H
and I. Vice Mayor .laskiewicz seconded the motion that carried 3-1. (Commissioner Denahan

Delegation will be present. Mayor Clarence Anthony is scheduled to make a presentation.
Vi'. PUBL'rC AUDTENCE:
Dee Zibelli, 440 Ocean Parkway, expressed her opinion that all of the taxpayers of the City
should have been invited to the groundbreaking for the marina project. She stated that Mr.
Garcia invited her to join in the ceremony.
Terry Trebbi, 41 t4isty Meadow, advised that she and two other ladies who approached the
podium were members of the Boynton Beach Police Wives Association. She said the police
have been working for seven years without a pay plan. They have been treated badly by the
City and want more money. She said they cannot raise and send their children to college on
their husband's salaries.
City Manager Willis confirmed for Mayor Taylor that the City currently has an agreement with
the Police.
Nicole Migelski said the agreement currently in effect allows the Police to choose between
Plan A and Plan B, neither of which are any good. The Police Officers are downtrodden
because of unfair treatment by the City. Although there is an agreement, it isn't any good.
Even though the Union negotiates for the Police Officers, it doesn't mean they are being treated
fairly. She vowed to "fix" this situation.
David Fellows, 638 NE 9th Avenue, is a member of the Education Advisory Board. He
presented the Commissioners with a packet of information that included an Executive Study
published by the National Coalition of Advocates for Students called "A Gathering Storm". He
invited the Commissioners to attend a meeting sponsored by the Education Advisory Board on
Saturday, at 10:00 a.m., at St. John's Missionary Baptist Church. Mr. Fellows requested that
this meeting be advertised on the City's marquee outside City Hall.
Mr. Fellows referred to Section 2-131 of the Code that discusses qualification for membership
on the Education Advisory Board. He requested that the Commission reconsider this section

since the board's chairperson recently relocated to Lake Worth and her daughter is a student at
Atlantic High School which is not within the geographical boundaries of the City. According to
this Ordinance, Ms. Lewis will have to submit her resignation.
Herb Suss thanked the Commission for approving the purchase of cars for the COPS program.
He praised the efforts of the City Commission and vowed to work to eliminate term limits in this
City. He is happy with the job the Commissioners are doing and urged people to vote to have
their voices heard. He urged everyone to attend the meeting on Saturday that will address "A
Gathering Storm".
Mayor Taylor addressed the issue of the groundbreaking for the marina project. He reported
that Mr. Garcia asked him to invite supporters of the project to the ceremony and he would
provide the food and beverages. Mayor Taylor decided to do this by invitation. Dee Zibelli,
David Katz and some others showed up to turn this positive event into a negative political
event. These "political hyenas" appeared in T-shirts with banners circling this positive event,
trying to tear things down. Ms. Zibelli said this group was invited to join the ceremony. Mayor
Taylor advised that he spoke with Mr. Garcia and told him we would keep this positive and not
stoop to no-class type of behavior. Mri Garcia then asked Msi Zibelli why she was present since
she had fought the project while she was a Commissioner. Ms. Zibelli told Mr. Garcia she was
confused. Mayor Taylor also pointed out that Ms. Zibelli mentioned taxpayers' money. He
suggested that she return some of the $10,000 she sued the taxpayers for when she was in a
leadership role in this City. Mayor Taylor was offended by Ms. Zibelli's negativity and believes
these people will only have seats on the Commission in the future if term limits remain in effect.

The vote was unanimous.
Proposed Ordinance No. O98-37 Re: Amending Section 13-20,
Special Events, by deleting section in its entirety and creating a new
section 13-20 entitled "Special Events'; providing for definition,
application process for special event permits, standards for issuance of
permits, conditions for permits, policy and procedures
At Attorney Cherof's request, this Ordinance was tabled to the October 6, 1998 City Commission
meeting.
3. Proposed Ordinance No. 098-38 Re: Licensing & inspection of
rentals regarding single-family homes
Attorney Cherof read Proposed Ordinance No. 098-38 by title only.
MAYOR TAYLOR ANNOUNCED THE PUBLIC HEARING.
Edward Tedman questioned whether or not the Ordinance speaks to the number of people
who will live in the homes and asked if there was anything in the Ordinance that would
eliminate illegal use of a single-family home as a multi-family property. Attorney Cherof
explained that this situation is not addressed in this Ordinance.
Vice Mayor ]askiewicz said the booklet that is being prepared addresses this issue. That was
the reason why she recommended the development of the booklet when the Ordinance came
before the Commission on first reading. Her objective for having this Ordinance was to allow
the City to investigate such complaints, Vice Mayor ]askiewicz pointed out that the booklet that
was secured from another municipality addresses this problem, Vice Mayor ]askiewicz'
17
MEET]:NG MTNUTES
REGULAR CITY COMMTSSTON
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORZDA
SEPTEMBER 15, 1998
intention was to provide this booklet to everyone seeking a license so that they adhere to the
rules and are subject to inspection.
Mr. Tedman inquired about the zoning limitations with respect to renting rooms in a single-
family home. Attorney Cherof advised that this Ordinance was drafted in the context of treating
single-family as a zoning classification. The ability of the City to collect a fee for rentals is
citywide and not limited to multi-family districts. Mr. Tedman questioned whether the City was
now allowing multi-family use in single-family residences. Attorney Cherof explained that this
Ordinance refers to the entire house being rented. :It is not intended to permit the rental of a
single room in a single-family structure.
Mr. Tedman pointed out that this Ordinance does not address the mounting problem of the
illegal rental of rooms in a single-family home. Attorney Cherof agreed and explained that this
is an Occupational License fee Ordinance. Tt establishes a fee for renting a single-family home.
Vice Mayor ~laskiewicz questioned how the City could address the concern of renting rooms in a
single-family home.
Scott Blasie, Code Compliance Administrator, said there are a few existing Ordinances that deal
with overcrowding. One of those Ordinances is in the Land Development Regulations
concerning housing. Occupancy is based on square footage. Most cities use this Ordinance in
accordance with the Standard Building Code based on life, health and safety. The booklet
referred to was secured from the City of Lake Worth. That booklet is being modified to fit the
City of Boynton Beach. The Lake Worth booklet states that up to three unrelated people may
occupy a single-family household. Our Zoning Code defines family as not allowing more than
two unrelated people in a household.
Vice Mayor .laskiewicz explained that this Ordinance would allow the City to inspect these
premises. Attorney Cherof confirmed that this Ordinance would trigger inspection,
Mr. Blasie explained that under this process, the City would license every rental. Code
Compliance will begin reviewing property records tomorrow to determine which properties are
homesteaded. The inspection process will then begin.
Mayor Taylor suggested that staff check with the City of Delray Beach since they were able to
define the term "family". Mr. Blasie said he is in possession of a copy of their Ordinance.
Mayor Taylor advised that we are trying to address this situation in the best way possible,
Herb Suss suggested tabling this matter until more input can be received.
Commissioner Titcomb did not support tabling this item because this Ordinance will provide the
City with access and information relative to the problems discussed. The issue of defining
"family" is a very difficult one for cities to deal with. There are other areas of the Code where
some of these other issues would fall.
Vice Mayor ,]askiewicz requested that area of the Code be defined by staff and brought back to
the Commission so that it can be refined.

Commissioner Denahan seconded the motion.
With respect to the cemetery, Vice Mayor .laskiewicz reported that there is a brick and stucco
wall that faces Seacrest Boulevard. She requested that consideration be given to continuing
that wall along the Wooibright Road side of the cemetery. She believes this will be a aesthetic
improvement, reduce maintenance and add to the total look of the cemetery. She is aware of
the fact that funds are available in the Cemetery Fund.
At Mayor Taylor's request, City Clerk Sue Kruse will bring this issue to the Cemetery Board for

The motion carried unanimously.
2. Moratorium on gas stations within the City of Boynton Beach
Vice Mayor .laskiewicz mentioned that Mr. Rosenstock suggested this item and she concurred
with it. She believes the City Commission should take the lead on this item.
Attorney Cherof said there are a lot of procedural safeguards to follow. He recommended that
staff prepare an analysis on the impact on the thoroughfares of the City, identify the locations
and establish the fact that we have in excess of the number needed to service the community.
The next step would be to adopt a formal Resolution establishing a moratorium for a specific
time period and defining the terms and conditions of that moratorium.
There was a consensus of the Commission to direct staff to move forward with the analysis and
return to the Commission.
Commissioner Denahan feels the moratorium needs to be in a specific area and not within the
entire limits of the City. She disagrees with the need for a moratorium on gas stations in the
City of Boynton Beach unless within a specified area. She feels there will be a need for a gas
station at 1~-95 and Gateway Boulevard. :In addition, we need to be very clear about what we
want to put on Federal Highway. This study should include gas stations and auto-related
businesses specifically on Federal Highway and Congress Avenue.
