MINUTES OF THE COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY WORKSHOP MEETING ON PUBLIC RECORDS AND SUNSHINE LAWS HELD IN COMMISSION CHAMBERS, CITY HALL, ON TUESDAY, APRIL 13, 2004 AT 6:00 P.M. Present: Jeanne Heavilin, Chair Henderson Tillman, Vice Chair James Barretta Alexander DeMarco Don Fenton Larry Finkelstein Charlie Fisher Douglas Hutchinson, CRA Director Lindsey Payne, Board Attorney I. CALL TO ORDER Chair Heavilin called the meeting to order at 6:00 p.m. II. ROLL CALL The Recording Secretary called the roll and declared that a quorum was present. OPENING REMARKS Chair Heavilin stated that the purpose of the workshop was to review the Sunshine and Public Record laws. V. PUBLIC RECORDS & SUNSHINE LAW Board Attorney Payne distributed a notebook containing information about the Sunshine Law, the Public Records Laws, how the CRA works, how it was created, State law pertaining to CRAs, and all the local City ordinances pertaining to the CRA. She reviewed this information for the Board. In regard to the Public Records Law, Chapter :119 of the Florida Statutes, Board Attorney Payne stated that any document that is created for CRA purposes is public record and must be kept and produced on request. In response to a question of who was responsible for saving it, Board Attorney Payne responded that this was done in the administrative office of the CRA. Hr. HutchinsOn stated that he maintains a catalog in his office of all memorandums sent "For Your Information" to the Board members. 5118 the Meeting Minutes CRA Workshop on Sunshine and Public Records Laws Boynton Beach, Florida April 13, 2004 He also responds to City requests to archive his E-mail and this is done without any editing, across the board. Board Attorney Payne stated that for example, it would be acceptable if Mr. Hutchinson sent an E-mail to a Board member and copied the rest of the Board; however, if one of the Board members responded to all the other Board members, that would be a problem. The same would be true if one of the Board members contacted the Director to discuss an issue via E-mail and copied the other Board members. Board Attorney Payne stated that it was important not to select "Reply All." Mr. DeMarco mentioned that there were two CRA members on the Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs and Economic Development Committees. He asked whether the City or the State had any issue with this involvement because CRA and City government topics were sometimes discussed. Chair Heavilin stated that the Board had asked this question years ago and the legal opinion at that time was that as long as one of the two participants recused him or herself, it would be acceptable to participate. Board Attorney Payne stated that while one of the Board members could participate, technically, there could still be a conflict if the Chamber were engaged in developing a position about a CRA issue that could come before the Board. Hr. DeMarco inquired whether he should leave the room if such a discussion took place. Board Attorney Payne said he should definitely not participate if the discussion was about something that would be coming before the CRA. However, recording the meeting, or the portion that dealt with CRA issues, could be done to provide a public record and allow the Board members to voice their opinion. Also, as an additional precautionary measure, if two or more CRA Board members regularly attend a meeting, the Chamber should post it and note that two or more CRA .Board members might be present. Board Attorney Payne noted that Board members could discuss CRA business with the Director or with the Board Attorney, but that any two Board members should not discuss a pending CRA topic with each other outside the regular scheduled public meeting. She pointed out that this did not .preclude the Board members from engaging in normal or casual conversation about non-CRA related matters. During discussion, the topic of "calendaring" came up, where the Board members try to determine a mutually agreeable date to hold a meeting. Board Attorney Payne stated that contact between the Board members that was aimed at establishing a date would be acceptable, but a discussion of the agenda would not. Mr. DeMarco asked to have the minutes of this meeting checked by someone involved with State law to determine if there is anything contained in them that they may 51i9 2 Heeting Minutes CRA Workshop on Sunshine and Public Records Laws Boynton Beach, Florida April 13, 2004 question. Board Attorney Payne asked Mr. DeHarco to expand on what he meant by this. He stated that while the Board might be comfortable that they were doing the right thing, having the minutes checked by the State Attorney's office would assure them that they were on the right track. Board Attorney Payne offered to ask them if they would do this. Several Board members commented that the Board employed Board Attorney Payne for the purpose of legal advice. Board Attorney Payne stated that when she has a question about any law, she consults the Attorney General's Office. Board Attorney Payne ended the review with the Ethics Law l:L2 of the Florida Statutes that deals with voting conflicts, the gift laws, and items of this nature. The Board thanked Board Attorney Payne for her informative presentation and for compiling such a useful document. VI.

V, PUBLIC AUDZENCE Chair Heavilin asked if anyone in the audience wished to speak about any item that was not on the agenda. Hearing none, she closed the Public Audience. Vt'. PUBL'rC HEARTNG Old Business Board Attorney Payne administered an oath to all/'ndividuals who planned to speak on any of the Public Hearing items. A. Code Review Project: Agent: Description: Mixed Use Code Review (CDRV 04-002) (Tabled) City-initiated Request for approval of proposed amendments to Chapter 2, Zoning, Section 6.F. Mixed Use Zoning District Dick Hudson, Senior Planner, distributed an updated Exhibit A to the Board members. He stated that the item was tabled at the Board's March 9 meeting at the suggestion of staff. Staff received a letter from the Executive Director dated February 10 and one from the Inlet Cove Association dated March 26 with several suggestions to consider for inclusion in the Code. Staff considered these requests and tried to incorporate them in the Code. 5122 2 Meeting Minutes Community Redevelopment Agency Regular Meeting Boynton Beach, Florida April :[3, 2004 Buck Buchanon, 807 Ocean Inlet Drive~ Boynton Beach, president of the Inlet Cove Association also known as INCA, came to the podium. He felt that INCA's concerns had been at least partially addressed by Mr. Hudson's presentation. INCA had asked that Single-Family Residence be retained as a permitted use in Table 6F-1 instead of changing it to a conditional use. He believed that the ratio of lot frontage to depth had been addressed. One of INCA's fears was that someone could assemble property, go back deep and wide and end up surrounding single-family homes. He was not sure this was completely addressed and if not, INCA would like it to be considered. INCA wants to have the INCA residential areas excluded from the Mixed Use category. Although he realized that it was not germane to the issue at hand, he wanted INCA's request to be on record when the LDRs and other documents and procedures were adopted. He stated that their request was not without precedent and that another residential area just behind U.S. #1 on the east side of Federal Highway had been excluded. He thanked staff for all of its good, hard work on this Code Review. Mr. Hudson stated that considering the size of frontages along Federal Highway, the distance any development could go back was limited. If they tried to limit it too much, redevelopment opportunities to the south would be hindered. Mr. Hudson noted that it was strictly for properties rezoning from single-family to mixed use and that there would be another opportunity for concerned citizens to speak when it goes before the City Commission next week. Mr. Fisher asked how this related to the Commission's decision two years ago to exclude INCA from the rezoning. Mr. Hudson said that the intent had been to classify everyone in the area as Mixed Use-High or Mixed Use Low and after considerable opposition was expressed to this idea, the Commission decided not to rezone anyone. Any rezoning would only be done by request. Nothing was being rezoned at this time. Chair Heavilin stated that she had received a call from Mr. David Zimet, Executive Director of the Boynton Beach Faith-Based CDC, asking how the Code Review would affect the Heart of Boynton. Mr. Hudson stated that there was an adopted Redevelopment Plan in that area that specifies multi-family residential on MLK with two commercial nodes at either end. They need to go back in and amend the Plan to show where the Mixed Use would go in that area. Chair Heavilin asked if that would become an extension of this Mixed Use Policy or a separate Plan. Mr. Hudson said that a MAP amendment needed to be made to the Heart of Boynton Plan on the proposed Redevelopment Plan. I~lotion 5 ! 23 Mr. Finkelstein moved to recommend approval to the City Commission of the City's request for approval of proposed amendments to Chapter 2, Zoning, Section 6.F. Mixed Use Zoning District, with the following requested additions by the Board: 1) Hake Meeting Minutes Community Redevelopment Agency Regular Meeting Boynton Beach, Florida April 13, 2004 "Performing Arts Theater" a conditional use in the MU-L district as it is now in the MU-H district; 2) Add "Fine Arts Auction House" as a permitted use in the MU-H district;. 3) Reduce the minimum parcel size for a Hotel from 3 acres to ! acre; 4) Reduce the average size of minimum living area for "All other Residential" from 1,000 square feet to 850 square feet. Staff will draft standards and a definition for "Fine Arts Auction House." Hr. DeMarco seconded the motion that passed 7-0. B. Zoning Code Variance Project: Agent: Owner: Location: Description: Mariners Way (ZNCV 04-O0:L) (Tabled) K. P. Hislop Mariners Way Homeowners Association 800 Mariners Way Request relief from Chapter 2, Zoning, Section 5.C.2.A., Requiring a minimum front yard setback of forth (40) feet, to allow for a variance of thirty (30) feet, and a front yard setback of ten (:LO) feet for a structure within a R-3 zoning district. Motion Hr. Fisher moved to remove the Mariners Way zoning variance from the table. Barretta seconded the motion that passed 7-0. Mr, Maxime Ducost~-Am~dAe, Planner, presented this item. Staff recommended denial of this request because: :L) There is a lack of traditional hardship. Relief is not necessary to make possible the reasonable use of the land; 2) The special conditions and circumstances are a result of actions taken by the applicant (e.g. design and layout of the proposed improvement); and 3) The proposed bathroom addition could be alternatively placed so as to maximize the setback and therefore minimize the magnitude of, or need for, a setback variance. The basis of the variance request was a tiki hut that encroaches into the setback. As a sub-request, the homeowners are asking that a bathroom be built adjacent to the pool area. This item was heard by the Board and tabled at the March 9, 2004 meeting, to give the parties time to find an alternative location for the bathroom and/or the tiki hut. Mr. Ducost~-Am~d~e stated that staff still recommended denial for the reasons previously stated. Staff had met with the applicant and they had not been able to arrive at a mutually agreeable location for the bathroom. He displayed a picture showing the portion of the site in question for the benefit of the public. Chair Heavilin invited comments from the public on this item. 5124 4 Meeting Minutes Community Redevelopment Agency Regular Meeting Boynton Beach, Florida April 13, 2004 Steve Black, President of Mariners Way Homeowners Association, distributed photographs to the Board of the area in question. The first picture showed where Mariners Way wants to put the bathroom. The second picture showed where staff suggested the bathroom could be located. Mariners Way did not think the ten feet of grassy area around the site proposed by staff could accommodate a person in a wheel chair going between the bathroom and the pool area. They still think their proposal is the best place for the bathroom. Mr. Black stated that no one had objected to the placement of the bathroom, only to the tiki hut. Regarding the tiki hut, he thought that Mariners Way and Mr. Barry Hurwit could come to an agreement on the height of the tiki hut before the City Commission meeting, thereby eliminating any objection to any aspect of the project they wished to undertake. Barry Hurwit, 1038 Sandalwood Lane, Weston, explained that he had spent about a half hour after the March 9 CRA meeting with Mariners Way representatives. He was anxious to seek a mutually satisfactory agreement with them regarding the height of the tiki hut. He asked Mariners Way to contact him to discuss this further but no one did so. He contacted them on the day before the meeting and Mariners Way talked about lowering the height of the. tiki hut by one foot. Although he thought this might work, he would have to see it first in order to know. He had no objection to the location of the proposed bathroom. Staff was asked whether the issues could be separated and staff responded that the request was for setbacks. If the bathroom setback were to be approved, the setback for the tiki hut would automatically be approved as well. Mr. Rumpf, Planning & Zoning Director, stated that if there were another postponement, additional advertising in the form of a legal ad would have to be done for a change in the variance. Mr. Fenton asked if Mr. Hurwit would accept a ten-foot height limitation on the tiki hut. Mr. Hurwit responded that he would have to see how that would look. There are 20 feet between his property line and the water and when he was under contract to buy the property, he asked the City if anyone could construct anything back there. He was told that this could absolutely not be done, and that if so, it would have to be 40 feet from his property, placing it in the middle of the canal. Mr. Barretta said that during the initial review, he did not feel that the petitioner had explored all of the possible options. There were at least half a dozen options about where either structure could be placed without violating any City ordinances or setbacks. He had drawn up a sketch that detailed one option. If the cul-de-sac were to be cut in half, allowing single vehicles to get in and back out, the entire east half of the cul-de-sac could contain four tiki huts and six bathrooms. Mr. Hurwit suggested the same thing to Mariners Way the day before. He was told that people with boats and trailers and po~ssibly the garbage trucks could not navigate in an 5 Meeting Minutes Community Redevelopment Agency Regular Meeting Boynton Beach, Florida April 13, 2004 area that small. Mariners Way spoke of having a very limited parking area and Mr. Barretta told them that if they did not put a circle in the parking lot, parking could be there and a bathroom and a tiki hut could be put where the bottom of the circle is now, and the pool deck could be enlarged. David Hemingway, a Mariners Way resident who lives at the far western end of the community, stated that the site of the proposed bathroom was about one quarter of a mile away from his home. He stated that even a construction site requires a restroom. To put the restroom where they wished would not affect the view of anything. A fire truck could not get around the parking lot if there were only half a circle. There was no more room and their request was not unreasonable. Robert Narducci, 658 Mariners Way, Boynton Beach~ asked Mr. Rumpf if a municipality had to protect a homeowner's view, under Florida Statutes. He then commented that Mr. Hurwit had been allowed a variance to go to within ten feet of that property line, the same property line that was in question. What hardship did Mr. Hurwit demonstrate in order to have his variance request granted? There were 32 Boynton Beach residents that believed there was a hardship involved in not having shade or a bathroom at their pool. Mr. Rumpf said that in looking back into the records of the Planning & Zoning Division, unless a strict hardship is proven, staff has consistently recommended denial of variances. He stated that Mr. Narducci would have to ask the City Commission why Mr. Hurwit's variance was granted because staff recommended denial of that variance. Aoila Waldon, 844 East Drive, Boynton Beach, stated that she did not live adjacent to this property and was not concerned about the view but was concerned about the noise factor from the tiki hut. When the tiki hut was up in its normal state, a party was held and the noise from the party held there was outrageous, because it is so close to the property line. She was against the tiki hut on these grounds. Ken Hislop, Vice President of Mariners Way Homeowners Association, agent, asked if there had been any citations from the Police Department due to any parties they had held there. Chair Heavilin stated that he would have to determine this with the Police Department. Chair Heavilin closed the Public Hearing when no one else came forward to speak. Mr. Fisher asked the Board if it would be willing to separate the tiki hut and bathroom issues or do a motion with only one item in it. Board Attorney Payne stated that if they wished, they could make a motion with only one item in it and possibly another person would make another motion. 5126 Meeting Minutes Community Redevelopment Agency Regular Meeting Boynton Beach, Florida April 13, 2004 Mr. Fisher recalled that logistically, because of the pipe, it was easier to put the bathroom where Mariners Way wanted to put it. He asked if there were a financial hardship involved in moving it to the place that staff had suggested. Mr. Black said that the biggest problem was that the neighbors to the south did not want the bathroom in the place that staff suggested. That location was in the middle and on the edge of the water. Mr. Barretta responded to Mr. Black saying that although they believed there would be more objections, it would be within the Code and would not require a variance. Chair Heavilin was disappointed that no agreement had been reached between now and the meeting in March. She felt that as long as there was a place to put the bathroom that was within Code, there was no hardship. I~lotion Mr. Barretta moved that the request for relief from Chapter 2, Zoning, Section 5.C.2.A, requiring a minimum front yard setback of forty (40) feet, to allow for a variance of thirty (30) feet, and a front yard setback of ten (10) feet for a structure within a R-3 zoning district be denied. Mr. Finkelstein seconded the motion. Mr. Fisher preferred to separate the tiki hut issue from the bathroom issue since it appeared that a compromise could be reached between the neighbor and Mariners Way regarding the tiki hut. Mr. Barretta stated that his motion was to deny both. He did not feel that all the alternatives had been explored and preferred that Mariners Way find alternate locations that would be in compliance with the City's Codes. The motion passed 6-:[, Mr. Fisher dissenting. flew Business A. Code Review Project: Owner: Description: Vehicles for Hire (Code Amendment) (Tabled) City-initiated Request to amend the Land Development Regulations, Part II. Chapter 24, "Taxicabs," to rename it "Vehicles'for Hire," and add needed definitions and provisions for other modes of transportation consistent with downtown redevelopment efforts. 5127 7 Meeting Minutes Community Redevelopment Agency Regular Meeting Boynton Beach, Florida April 13, 2004 Motion Vice Chair Tillman moved to remove Vehicles for Hire from the table. Mr. Finkelstein seconded the motion that passed 7-0. Mr. Rumpf explained that broader regulations would allow for alternative modes of transportation, including trolleys and non-motorized vehicles that would be appropriate for the downtown redevelopment purposes. The principal changes include: 1) omitting requirement and provisions for Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity, which includes City Commission approval; 2) exemptions added and stated; 3) removing annual safety inspections by the City Public Works staff and replacing it with overseeing the process to insure that vehicles are properly maintained per Florida Statutes through the County system; 4) removing requirements regarding such service operation hours; 5) excluding non-taxi advertising; 6) providing documentation on the license process and requirements; and 7) consolidating and expanding the Dos and Don'ts section. Staff recommends approval of this request. Chair Heavilin asked for comment from the public on this item, and hearing none, closed the Public Hearing. Vice Chair Tillman asked whether this change would affect the method by which people would have to be licensed. Mr. Rumpf said that it would not affect the license process, but would just remove the extra step of going through the City Commission approval process. Motion Mr. Finkelstein moved to approve the request to amend the Land Development Regulations, Part Ii. Chapter 24, "Taxicabs," to rename it "Vehicles for Hire," and add needed definitions and provisions for other modes of transportation consistent with downtown redevelopment efforts. Vice Chair Tillman seconded the motion that passed 7-0. B. Conditional Use Project: Agent: Owner: Location: Description: Dunkin Donuts (COUS 04-001) Ronald L. Uphoff Roderick H. Cushman 1317 South Federal Highway Request for Conditional Use approval for a 2,474 square feet drive-through restaurant on a 0.43-acre parcel in a C-3 zoning district. 5128 8 Meeting Minutes Community Redevelopment Agency Regular Meeting Boynton Beach, Florida April 13, 2004 Eric Johnson, Planner, reported that staff recommended approval of this request for conditional use, subject to satisfaction of 29 conditions of approval. Staff recommended that a period of one year be allowed to initiate the project. Ronald L. Uphoff, Agent, came to the podium to answer any questions from the Board or the public. Vice Chair Tillman asked Mr. Uphoff if his client was in agreement with all 29 conditions of approval, and the response was affirmative. Mr. Barretta sought and received assurance from Mr. Uphoff that no rooftop equipment would be visible above the parapet. Mr. Uphoff also confirmed that the lighting would not be offensive to the neighbors, although there were a few accent lights to illuminate the walkway that were directed downwards. Mr. Barretta asked staff if the coolers in the back were permissible under the Codes. Mr. 3ohnson stated that he believed they were going to be concealed. Mr. Uphoff stated that the coolers would be contained within a pre-fabricated structure that would be painted and finished in the colors of the building. :[t would only be accessible to the people working in the facility. Mr. Barretta complimented Mr. Uphoff on the design of the project. Chair Heavilin invited.comments from the public and hearing none, closed the Public Hearing. I~lotion Mr. Fenton moved to approve the request by Dunkin Donuts for Conditional Use approval for a 2,474 square foot drive-thru restaurant on a 0.43-acre parcel in a C-3 zoning district, subject to all staff recommendations and conditions of approval.

Chair Heavilin invited comments from the public and hearing none, closed the Public Hearing. Mr. Fisher asked if there were any development incentives in this project, and was advised that there were not. Motion Vice Chair Tillman moved to approve Coastal Bay Colony's request for a one-year time extension of the site plan approval granted on February 18, 2003, from February 18, 2004 to February 18, 2005. Mr. Fisher seconded the motion that passed 7-0. Chair Heavilin gave special thanks to the Planning Department for the streamlined manner in which their reports were presented. VII.

Mr. Fisher seconded the motion that passed 7-0. 5130 10 Meeting Minutes Community Redevelopment Agency Regular Meeting _Boynton Beach, Florida April 13, 2004 TX. New Business Consideration of Burkhardt Construction Work Order Number Six for the Boynton Beach Boulevard Design/Build Contract Mr. Hutchinson stated that the water and sewer utilities for the Marina Village Project extensions would be fully reimbursed by The Related Group to the CRA as a pass- through, at an amount of $266,990. This figure is larger than the $225,097.00 shown in the agenda report due to last-minute additions by staff. Mr. Hutchinson stated that the real decision was to choose between the two options in Work Order #6 for the FPL electric utilities along Boynton Beach Boulevard and the Promenade area - underground or overhead. The underground option cost is $952K, and would cover the entire area from the tie-in location on the west side of Federal Highway to the Intracoastal. The above ground option replaces the substandard overhead poles with decorative units, keeps the lines overhead, and costs $150K. Mr. Finkelstein commented that it had been understood that The Related Group had offered to pay for the cost of putting the electrical utilities underground on the portion of their project that abuts the Promenade, but had now decided not to do it and to have overhead utilities instead. It seemed to some Board members that the CRA was being asked to share The Related Group's share of the cost for the underground utility option. Mr. Hutchinson responded that The Related Group's portion of the cost for "their part" of this would have been $:L55K on the high side and as Iow as $78K on the Iow side. Mr. Hutchinson also referred to future projects coming forward in the area, stating that Marina Village was not the only project that would be served or improved by this effort. If the CRA chose to place the utilities underground and The Related Group did not do so on Marina Village, there would be a mixture of the types of utility configurations. In general, the Board did not believe that having this .mixture would be aesthetically appealing in the CRA's premier project. The proposal options represent doing the electrical utilities along the entire length of the Boynton Beach Boulevard Extension/Promenade, including the portion that abuts Marina Village, in an underground or overhead manner. The total cost of Work Order #6 including the water and sewer utilities and the underground option is $1,150,097.00 and $375,097.00 for the overhead option. Mr. Hutchinson also asked that the Board authorize Larry Finkelstein to sign the water and sewer agreement between The Related Group and the CRA. Mr. FinkelStein asked for and received confirmation from the Board Attorney that it would be legal for him to sign the water and sewer agreement. 5131 11 Meeting Minutes Community Redevelopment Agency Regular Meeting Boynton Beach, Florida April ::[3, 2004 The general tone of the comments from the Board was that if the CRA expected developers to produce a first-rate product, the CRA would have to set an example in this project. The feeling was that this project would be around for a long time and that it should be done right the first time. Mr. Hutchinson spoke of the TTF revenue that would be generated by this project and how that would pay dividends to the entire City for a long time to come. Mr. Fenton inquired if The Related Group would be getting incentives on their project. Mr. Finkelstein said that the CRA had bought some parking spaces for the public, at a cost of $1,050,000. Mr. Finkelstein continued, saying that the parking spaces had been for the Promenade. Dale Sugerman, Assistant City Manager, noted that The Related Group has enjoyed about $145K worth of incentives that were paid by the City on behalf of the previous owners, so money went into the project and into the ground, which was then transferred and sold to The Related Group. While they did not get a direct incentive, there was some incentive money paid into the project, which they now enjoy. 14otion Hr. Fisher moved to approve the pass through contract with all utilities going underground. Mr. Barretta seconded the motion that passed 6-1, Mr. Fenton dissenting. Motion Mr. Fisher moved to give authorization for Mr. Finkelstein, the CRA Director, and Board Attorney Payne to conclude the contract and for Mr. Finkelstein to sign the contract with The Related Group for reimbursement to the CRA regarding the pass through. Mr. Barretta seconded the motion. Mr. Finkelstein noted that he was leaving the country on May 7. Mr. Fisher amended his motion to reflect that if Mr. Finkelstein were not available, that Chair Heavilin would be the signatory for the CRA on the subject contract. Mr. Barretta seconded the amendment. The motion passed 7-0. Consideration of The Urban Group Task Authorization No. CRA 03-02 Proposed Scope of Work, Relocation Services for Phase I MLK Property Acquisition Mr. Hutchinson stated that this Task Authorization concerned the Heart of Boynton and the Uniform Relocation Act task on which the Board had previously decided to go forward. The Task Authorization relates the fees from The Urban Group for the work necessary to accomplish the relocation aspects of the Housing & Urban Development (HUD) act, the Uniform Relocation Act. Staff is also requesting approval of a total of 5132 12 Meeting Minutes Community Redevelopment Agency Regular Meeting Boynton Beach, Florida April 13, 2004 $36,500 for the initial appraisals on the 30 parcels in question. Staff also asks that the Board approve the contract so that the acquisition of the 30 parcels can move forward. Lastly, the Board is asked to write a letter of request that a Resolution of Need be passed by the City Commission in support of this project to begin the HUD process. Board Attorney Payne added to the latter statement that this was so the City Commission could take whatever legal steps were necessary to acquire the property. Mr. Sugerman introduced Mr. Howard Steinholz, the President and C.E.O. of The Urban Group, who answered questions about this effort. Mr. Fisher asked for more detail on the $221K cost of relocation services and wanted to know why it was necessary. He thought that with a willing seller, it would not apply. Mr. Sugerman said even though the individual might be willing to sell, they still had to be put on notice of their rights and offered all of the benefits and entitlements under the Act. Hr. Fenton believed that the City was supposed to pay for the relocation costs. Chair Heavlin asked if the Uniform Relocation Act related to commercial as well as residential properties. Mr. Steinholz said there were four categories: Residential Relocation, Business Relocation, Sign/Personal Property Displacement, and Landlord Businesses. Landlord Businesses would be people who had tenants in their properties and were claiming a Business category. Chair Heavilin asked if this were a HUD requirement and Mr. Steinholz responded that it was part of the requirements of the Uniform Relocation Act. Mr. Sugerman stated that The Urban Group's proposal was to do a Needs Assessment Survey and Cost Estimate as a first step in this project for a cost of $9,631.94. They would complete that and make available to the Board a full and complete report of what they estimate total costs of notice, relocation, and anything else to which the CRA would be exposed in terms of costs. Mr. Fisher thought the cost was estimated to be $221K and Mr. Sugerman stated that this amount was actually The Urban Group's fee for doing the Uniform Relocation Act guideline administration. ]:t did not include relocation costs. The actual costs associated with relocation.would be in addition to this, but the Board would have a better idea of what those costs would be at the completion of the first phase (the $9,63:t.94 Needs Assessment and Cost Estimate.) Mr. Sugerman explained that The Urban Group had to literally go and knock on doors and find out how many people were living inside a particular unit, because the guidelines have different thresholds of relocation expenses, depending on what is inside that unit. The Types of Displacements and the costs associated with administering the 5133 ~.3 Meeting Minutes Community Redevelopment Agency Regular Meeting Boynton Beach, Florida April 13, 2004 Uniform Relocation Act guidelines are listed in the Scope of Work underneath the Needs Assessment Survey and Cost Estimate. Hr. Finkelstein asked how Needs Assessment Survey. for a typical unknown type they arrived at a relocation services fee without doing the Mr. Steinholz stated that they had estimated the work effort of relocation. Mr. Sugerman addressed Mr. Finkelstein's concern, saying that The Urban Group contracts were based on milestones. If they incur an expense they will bill for that expense and if they do not incur an expense, they do not bill. The $230.9K is an upside limit, and it will come in less if a particular milestone is not triggered. He said the $221.3K relocation services cost represented the worst case, totally exposed scenario. Mr. Finkelstein asked Hr. Steinholz if he agreed that this was the worst-case scenario, and Mr. Steinholz responded that it was. Vice Chair Tillman wanted to see some examples from other relocations in which The Urban Group had participated. He asked Mr. Steinholz to explain the types of things that he would do to generate expenses of $22~.3K. Mr. Steinholz explained what The Urban Group would do in depth. He also commented that in The Urban Group's quote was a Scope of Work that outlined this. Vice Chair Tillman still wanted to see the results of a relocation effort that The Urban Group had done. He was having a hard time understanding spending this much money to tell eight people that they had to move. He asked that The Urban Group bring back examples so the Board could understand this item. Mr. Steinholz stated that he could provide the Board with the administrative costs from a project they had just completed on Southern Boulevard in West Palm Beach where there were 232 persons displaced from residential and mixed-use environments. A lengthy discussion ensued about the various issues that arise during relocations and examples of costs that might be incurred. During this discussion, Mr. Finkelstein asked Mr. Steinholz again if he would be willing to stand by the $22Z.3K estimate for administrative relocation services. Mr. Steinholz said he was not willing to state that that was the only dollar amount that it could be. Mr. Fisher asked if everyone on the list was eligible for these benefits. Mr. Steinholz said that not everybody would be entitled. One eligibility requirement was ninety-day tenancy, for example. They have to have lived in the location at least 90 days prior to the notice that is provided to them. They also have to demonstrate and prove income and the fact that they have lived at that location. There was a whole process involved with establishing eligibility. Chair Heavilin confirmed that there would be no relocation costs on vacant land. 5134 14 Meeting Minutes Community Redevelopment Agency Regular Meeting Boynton Beach, Florida April 13, 2004 Chair Heavilin asked if a person already had his or her property up for sale and wanted to retire and go to New York, whether the CRA would offer a relocation package for them. Mr. Steinholz said if they wanted to move to New York or Chicago, the only calculation The Urban Group would provide them was movement within the local housing market. Mr. Fisher said that it did not seem that an individual owning seven parcels and living in one, and not at the poverty level, would qualify. Mr. Steinholz said if they were an owner, The Urban Group would calculate replacement housing for them, based on the one home that he or she lived in. Mr. Sugerman said that the landlord's tenants might have rights, though. Mr. Steinholz reiterated that the landlord may have rights as a Landlord Business, but they may not have rights for all the houses that they own, as an owner, but their tenants might. Hr. Finkelstein confirmed that if an owner had a "For Sale" sign, they would still have the ability to request a relocation package. Mr. Sugerman said that they did, but they could waive it after they had been given proper notice. They were entitled to notice and were entitled to know what their rights are. if a willing seller is pushed to sell and is willing to waive their rights, they may do so. An example of someone who might do this would be someone who did not plan to stay in the area. Mr. Steinholz stated that The Urban Group would also request that people donate properties to the CRA. Mr. DeMarco asked to hear from Mr. Quintus Greene on this topic. Quintus Greene, Development Director, came to the podium. He realized that the Board was having difficulty with the amount of work and cost involved in this process. He shared his experience as a Development Administrator for another agency. The agency had 300 people working in it and approximately 50 to 70 of them worked in real estate acquisition and disposition, it involved the acquisition of property, the relocation of residents, and the disposition of property. From this personal experience, he knew that there was a lot of staff time involved in this kind of effort. A number of other communities have gone through urban redevelopment projects before but this was the first time for Boynton Beach. He assured the Board that what The Urban Group was requesting for their services was not unusual and was actually quite reasonable. Mr. Finkelstein was concerned about the bottom line and the fact that the cost could be many, many times higher than the $221.3K'quoted. He thought that Mr. Steinholz had said that it could be double or triple that, and Mr. Steinholz stated that he had not said this. Mr. Finkelstein thought that he could support the Needs Assessment Survey and Cost Estimate work so that they could get a better idea of what the total cost could be. Chair Heavilin commented that of the 30 vacant properties. 5135 properties under consideration, 14 were Meeting Minutes Community Redevelopment Agency Regular Meeting Boynton Beach, Florida April 13, 2004 Mr. Fisher asked Mr. Steinholz if he would be willing to do the relocation work for the price quoted on a not-to-exceed basis. Mr. Steinholz said if the Board agreed -to the unit price that they estimated, they could live with the unit price. They would not agree to a fixed fee now without knowing what the work would be. He would agree to a unit fee per type of relocation, but that would not give Mr. Fisher a not-to-exceed fee. Mr. Sugerman stated that Mr. Steinholz had already agreed to the unit fee because that was in the contract. He said the hourly rates were from the contract that had already been negotiated, and it was a matter of how many hours would be involved. Board Attorney Payne did not think this was what was said - she stated that Mr. Steinholz had mentioned a fee per type of relocation, as listed in their quote, "Hourly Basis for Unit Rates." Mr. Steinholz said they arrived at the unit fees based on the rates in the contract. Board Attorney Payne asked Mr. Steinholz if he were talking about an hourly rate or a rate per type of relocation, like a flat dollar amount. Mr. Steinholz said he would agree to the fees stated in the Hourly Basis for Unit Rates quote, under the various categories of Displacement because that was a fair rate per parcel. Vice Chair Tillman interjected that he was a little taken aback by the relocation circumstance. Over the previous three years the Board had asked for a reasonable Scope of Work for properties they were going to purchase in the MLK Corridor~ Now, they were talking about paying somebody fees for relocating people and not one piece of property had been purchased. He wanted to know if properties were available where they would not have to go through the relocation process. He was frustrated over the delays, the additional fees, and the fact that no property had been purchased. How did HUD get involved? Who was responsible for that? Mr. Sugerman stated that they had known from the beginning that there were some willing sellers. Working with CRA legal counsel, they drafted up a simple purchase and sale agreement where they could have gone to a front door, knocked on it, and had the party sign it. The one error that they made was that they did not make the link that the redevelopment project, not the acquisition, would be using Federal grant monies, which dictates that from the beginning of the project, when the first door is knocked on, that special language has to be included in the agreement. Vice Chair Tillman asked if the CRA would be using Federal grant monies for this project? Mr. Sugerman asked for clarification, and Vice Chair Tillman stated that he meant for making the purchases. Mr. Sugerman did not believe that the CRA would be using any Federal dollars for making the CRA purchases. Mr. Sugerman said the next question would be, "Are there going to be any federal HUD funds used anywhere in this project, and the answer was yes, at the back end of the project. Once the parcels were bundled, there would be HUD funds that would be used for the removal of slum and blight in whatever the new project was going to be. 5136 16 Meeting Minutes Community Redevelopment Agency Regular Meeting Boynton Beach, Florida April :[3, 2004 Therefore, HUD's rules say that if you are going to use their money, even at the end, you have to start right from the beginning using their rules and regulations, which include the concept of the Uniform Relocation Act. It is the law. If we fail to do so and spend HUD funds, all the HUD money has to be paid back with penalties and interest, and jail time is not out of the question. Mr. Greene interjected that the City of Boynton Beach gets approximately $650K a year in Community Development Block Grant Funds. Boynton Beach'is a HUD entitlement community. Mr. Fenton asked why. Mr. Greene responded that the Heart of Boynton area, the target area, in terms of demographics and income, is considered an area that is eligible for CDBG funding. Mr. Sugerman said we choose to accept those grant funds. Mr. Greene said the City was spending $650K, primarily in the Heart of Boynton area. On top of that, the City has an application in to HUD for $2.5M, a Section 108 loan, that is payable over a period of 20 years from the proceeds of the $650K a year we get from HUD. in effect, the City uses HUD's money to pay HUD back, but it is a loan that it is getting in advance on its Block Grant. The point was that there was HUD money involved in making the Heart of Boynton project go forward. Although the CRA was not using HUD money per se, the project was using HUD money. Given the fact that the project is using HUD money and the City made an inquiry as to whether they could make a distinction between the CRA and the City, the response was no, because the project was using HUD money. When using its money, the HUD insists that its rules be followed. So, the rules have to be determined. One of them is the use of the Uniform Relocation Act. The City of Boynton Beach does not have a real estate administration department and has never had one. For this reason, someone was hired as the Real Estate Administrator to do the property acquisition, disposition, relocation, and all of those things that a Real Estate Development Department would otherwise do. The Urban Group is, in effect, that department. For that privilege, it costs $230.9K on this project. Vice Chair Tillman understood Mr. Greene's comments, but thought that there were certain areas where the CRA could do work where the HUD guidelines would not have to apply. Mr. Finkelstein clarified this, saying that a link was made that the CRA was part of the City. Therefore, since the City was doing other projects in the area, like the Cherry Hills project, where they were using HUD monies, the City and the CRA were "in the same boat." Mr. Sugerman agreed. Mr. Fent;on asked if a distinction could be made between what the CRA was trying to do and what the City was trying to do so the CRA did not have to go through this. Mr. Sugerman said that staff had gone through this scenario also. They thought that 5137 17 Meeting Minutes Community Redevelopment Agency Regular Meeting Boynton Beach, Florida April 13, 2004 perhaps they could just do streetscapes, curb and gutter, water and sewer lines, plantings, and so forth - everything but the actual acquisition of the buildings. The thinking was that if the buildings were not acquired, there would be no one to relocate. But, HUD says that: If ANY kind of improvement is done in a project area where HUD funds are going to be used for ANY act/v/ties, even if properties are not be/ng acquired from people who live in them, the Uniform Relocation Act is st~Il triggered. Mr. Fenton thought they could go back to not having land banking by the CRA and let a private developer go in there and buy the properties. Then there would be no relocations and there would be no relocation cost. Mr. Sugerman said that this could be done but he thought this decision was made last September. He recalled asking the question, "either you are going to buy the 30 parcels and bundle them or you are not - it is an all or nothing kind of deal." Mr. Fenton said that the CRA could change its mind. Mr. Fisher said the question was that when staff was directed to purchase land, it was thought that a house could be bought for $50K. Essentially, it would now cost $100K because relocation and other costs would have to be paid. Mr. Fisher commented that a large number of the homes in the subject area were not paying any ad valorem property taxes. A year ago, the question arose as to whether the CRA was going to initiate redevelopment in the area or wait and hope that a developer came in and did it. Mr. Finkelstein said it went back three years and the CRA did mandate that it would contribute to that area and purchase real estate. They directed people to do that and none of it had come to fruition, so he would not say that this discussion was new. Chair Heavilin said that the CRA had approved going forward with the HUD guidelines. Board Attorney Payne stated that this decision had not been based on legal grounds. Using the Uniform Relocation Act was approved because staff said it did not want to have two different sets of rules for property owners, not because it was legally required. Once this was approved, they had to bring this task back for those relocation services to be provided. She stated that she had never gotten an answer from HUD, and when the CRA approved it regardless, she no longer pursued the answer. Mr. Hutchinson stated that they were very concerned that a definitive answer from HUD may not be obtainable and that it was taking a very long time. Board Attorney Payne worked on it for four weeks and did not get anywhere. The Board had been emphatic with staff to get the properties bought. In conferring with the Board Attorney, City staff, and the consultants, everyone said it could be months and the same answer could come back. Meanwhile, properties are changing hands and values are going up. Mr. Fisher said that the Return on Znvestment had also changed. Znstead of having a 5- year ROT, they were looking at an 8-year ROI on a lot of the parcels. Still, he asked if the Board felt that it would take the CRA to initiate change in that part of town. He 5138 18 Meeting Minutes Community Redevelopment Agency Regular Meeting Boynton Beach, Florida April 13, 2004 believed that it would take this Board to do it, because nobody else had stepped up to do it on their own. Chair Heavilin said they had been advocating it for the last three years and it was time to move. Mr. Finkelstein said they were just trying to understand the costs of the program. Mr. Fenton wanted to approve the Needs Assessment Survey and Cost Estimate before going ahead with the relocation services fee. That would give the Board a better picture of the dollars involved. Mr. Sugerman suggested that the Board authorize the Needs Assessment Survey & Cost Estimate; authorize the appraisals because contracts could not be offered without them; and authorize a recommendation to the City Commission to go forward with a Resolution of Necessity. Those three actions would get the project underway to enable them to begin getting properties under contract. Mr. Fisher said they could approve it tonight and if it got too astronomical in price, say no at that time. Mr. Sugerman agreed. Mr. Finkelstein said that going ahead with offers to purchase was not listed in the Scope of Work and he wanted to make sure that this would get into the motion. Mr. Sugerman said that this was in his base contract. :In the original contract, where The Urban Group was directed to go out and buy 30 parcels, the cost was $134K to get the parcels. This one tonight is the add-on for the relocation services. They already have instructions and the CRA has approved a contract for them to go knock on doors. They just did not have the right contract in hand to knock on doors. The attorney has finished the contract with the right language. Some of the appraisals will be in within a week or two and the contracts will be taken to the willing sellers who are ready to sign. Mr. Sugerman told Mr. Steinholz that the Board was asking him to be a little bit at risk with notification under the Uniform Relocation Act, because they were not giving The Urban Group approval for notification. Mr. Steinholz said the CRA had approved the use of the Uniform Relocation Act, so when they make an offer, the offer would be accompanied by the notice that would identify the owner's rights under it. Mr. Sugerman said The Urban Group would not be getting paid for providing that notice because that was in the bottom half of the Relocation Services quote. Mr. Steinholz said they would submit this as part of the contract requirement, but they had to have that notice and the appraisal in hand when going to the seller. Mr. Fisher said as part of the contract requirement he would include it in there so when he gets Parcel A, it would have a bottom line total. The Board can decide to pay or not 5139 19 Meeting Minutes Community Redevelopment Agency Regular Meeting Boynton Beach, Florida April 13, 2004 pay for it. It has to come before the Board and the services will be itemized. If the service is too much, we say no. Mr. Steinholz said that unless the Board approved the relocation services, they would not do any of the calculations or make a presentation of the benefits of selling. All they would do was make an offer, and include the necessary notice to owner, and that would be part of the presentation of the contract. They would not go any further than that unless the Board approved going ahead with relocation services. Mr. Hutchinson said that to clarify, the appraisal task must be authorized for $36K. Also, an additional appraisal, called an independent review appraisal, is required as part of the relocation process. Part of the notice to the owner is that they are entitled to two appraisals, an initial appraisal and an independent review appraisal, for which the CRA pays. A quote is not yet available for the Board on the cost associated with the review appraisals. Mr. Steinholz took some bids and they came in higher than he thought was appropriate so he is negotiating better rates on the review appraisals. A quote is expected by the next meeting. Chair Heavilin said she had some issues with the contract and did not want to belabor them. She asked the Board if it would be acceptable if she just relayed them to Legal Counsel. The Board and the Director agreed that this would be acceptable. Mr. Hutchinson asked if the Board had to officially approve the contract as well, and Board Attorney Payne said they did not. Motion Mr. Fisher moved to approve the initial appraisal cost for a total of $36,500. Mr. DeMarco seconded the motion. Mr. Sugerman suggested adding to the motion that this was for appraisal work that would be done by the Florida Coastal Appraisal Services Company of Fort Lauderdale, Florida for thirty parcels. Mr. Sugerman wanted it made clear that it was not The Urban Group that was doing the appraisals. Board Attorney Payne stated that they did not have to include it in the motion because the CRA would be paying The Urban Group, per terms of the contract. Mr. Fisher said that the motion was intended to include all 30 parcels, and Mr. DeMarco agreed to add this to the motion. The motion carried 7-0. 5140 20 Meeting Minutes Community Redevelopment Agency Regular Meeting Boynton Beach, Florida April 13, 2004 Motion Mr. Fisher moved to approve the Needs Assessment Survey & Cost Estimate by The Urban Group in the amount of $9,631.94. Mr. DeMarco seconded the motion. Mr. Finkelstein wanted to make sure it was for the same 30 parcels. Mr. Fisher added this to his motion and Mr. DeMarco agreed. Mr. Steinholz clarified that this was not for the vacant land. They would not be doing a Needs Assessment on the vacant land. There was no one to relocate. He suggested adding, "if required." Mr. Fisher stated that the motion should be for 30 parcels, as required. Mr. DeMarco agreed. The motion passed 7-0. Motion Mr. Fisher moved that the CRA request that the City Commission proceed with the Resolution of Necessity for property acquisition. Mr. DeMarco seconded the motion. The motion passed 7-0. Chair Heavilin recognized the presence in the audience of Mayor Taylor and his wife, and welcomed them to the meeting. C. Consideration of Youth Community Improvement Grant Program Mr Hutchinson asked that the Consideration of the Contract for a Central Bus/ness District I~ass/ng hCodel be heard before this/tern. The Board concurred. Consideration of Contract for Central Business District (CBD) Massing Model (heard out of order) Mr. Hutchinson stated that he was very pleased with the response received from the CRA's Request for Proposal. He thought that having an actual, physical model of the CBD would help people visualize what heights and massing would do on proposed developments. The area covered will be from the Intracoastal to Seacrest Boulevard, which will include Boynton Beach Boulevard, Town Square, and the Central Business District, and will show how those buildings will relate to one another. For the price quoted, the CRA is able to obtain a digital model in addition to the Plexiglas model, so when the Website is up and running, the CRA will have a digital model. 5141 21 Meeting Minutes Community Redevelopment Agency Regular Meeting Boynton Beach, Florida April 13, 2004 Mr. Fisher confirmed that the data input software would be compatible with the City's G.I.S. system. Rafael Tapanes, President of Reelization, ]:nc., 100 Madeira Avenue, Suite 2, Coral Gables, Florida, came to the podium. Mr. Fisher asked who would own the digital modeling software once the unit was built. Mr. Tapanes confirmed that the actual model would belong to the CRA. He also said that they had 3-D modeling software licensed by Discreet and when they provide their rendering images, there are TIF files that can be incorporated into a Powerpoint presentation or printed in large format, and he will furnish the disc with the final rendered images to the CRA. Mr. Fisher asked if in a few years the City wished to maintain the system themselves, rather than having a perpetual renewal contract, would the CRA own the data? Mr. Tapanes said the CRA would own the data but not the license for the software. Mr. Tapanes would provide the software manufacturer and the price, when necessary. Mr. Tapanes said all that Reelization asks is that they have the right to use the images created and the pictures taken of the model for their own marketing purposes. Everything else would belong to the CRA. Mr. Fisher said if they decided they wanted to market it, they would not have to pay royalties to Reelization, and Mr. Tapanes concurred. Mr. Finkelstein stated that there was only one approved new project and he wondered why a massing model of the existing buildings was necessary when it would have to be changed as new projects came in. Mr. Hutchinson said that they were doing it to show existing relationships to single-family and other projects, so that when they come in, it would be obvious how an individual project would impact the neighboring properties. It could be left in there or replaced. As projects come in, the CRA would ask the applicant to explain or add to the CRA modeling so the Board could see the impact of their project. He said Mr. Finkelstein was correct in that a lot of the base model would be replaced. Also, with the digital model, there could be forecasting on the corridor plans. Much of this would be plug-ins that would replace old sections as new projects were put in. Chair Heavilin commented the model would be very helpful to the Board, the developers, and the public. Mr. Finkelstein suggested doing more work on the drawdown schedule, relating the fee more to individual tasks and not a lump sum. After discussion, the parties mutually agreed to relate the drawdowns to the tasks delineated in Exhibit A, F, Summary, page 11 of the RFP. 5142 22 Meeting Minutes Community Redevelopment Agency Regular Meeting Boynton Beach, Florida April 13, .2004 Motion Mr. Fisher moved to approve the Massing Model of the Central Business District, an area extending west to Seacrest Boulevard, with the base, standard Plexiglas cover, and the digital model for a total of $17,345. The drawdowns will be according to the accomplishments in Exhibit A, with 10% of each remaining and paid upon completion. Mr. Finkelstein seconded the motion with the clarification that Exhibit A is identified as Exhibit A of the booklet entitled CRA RFP #2004-1 issued .lanuary 13, 2004. Mr. Fisher accepted the amendment. The motion passed 7-0. Consideration of Youth Community Improvement Grant Program (heard out of order) Annette Gray, CRA Administrative Assistant, presented this program. It was initiated through a request from Board Member Charlie Fisher, and is targeted towards the Youth of Boynton Beach. It encourages the young people of the community to get involved in the revitalization of their neighborhoods and the projects created would assist in the refurbishing of areas that are physically and visually challenged. The program would operate only within the CRA boundaries and would be available to non- profit organizations having 5 or more Youth participants. Youth is defined as under the age of 18. Each grant has a funding limit of $2,000. Grants for $1,000 or less would be funded up front, while grants for the maximum of $2,000 would require matching funds. Mr. Fisher stated that he had worked on a lot of community projects with the Youth while he was on other Boards and it was a case of the Youth providing sweat equity. He expressed the belief that when the Youth feel a sense of ownership in a place, they do not destroy it. He pointed to the garden at the corner of Seacrest Boulevard and N.E. 10th Avenue as a prime example of this philosophy. The garden had been in place for a long time and it had not been damaged in any way. Vice Chair Tillman was in favor of the idea but wanted to see more definition by way of examples of projects. He thought there should be a list of some 10 or more potential projects that could be undertaken because children need to have some kind of idea about what they might be able to do. He also wanted to see information on how it would be managed. He asked for and received assurance that the grants would be reviewed and not just given to everyone who applied. Mr. Hutchinson stated that the Board would review each application. Vice Chair Tillman thought that this would put a lot of pressure on the Board, favoring instead including a scope designed by the CRA, and not by the applicant. Mr. Fenton believed that it exceeded the mandate of the CRA. He also believed it would violate the tenets of volunteerism. He was under the impression that the children would 5143 23 Meeting Minutes Community Redevelopment Agency Regular Meeting Boynton Beach, Florida April 13, 2004 be paid to donate their time. Tt was explained that the grant was meant to be used for supplies only, and not to pay anyone for their labor. Mr. Finkelstein noted that the package stated, "immediately upon approval, grant program documents will be prepared in the CRA Attorney's omce." He hoped that some pre-prepared documents could be devised that would not have to be sent to the Board Attorney. He also commented on Program Guideline (2) on page 5094 of the agenda package, which says, "Eligible exterior improvements for this program include: Any property or project site that has high public visibility." He understood this to be anything that was outside that the public could see the benefit of and within the CRA boundaries. Ms. Gray agreed. Mr. Finkelstein was not having an issue with it, but agreed with Vice Chair Tillman that it would be helpful to have some examples, to avoid being deluged with an avalanche of applications from people who did not understand what the program was about. Some overall, global view of the program should be in the Scope of Service. There are still activities and funding available through the Advisory Board on Children & Youth, the Commissioners' discretionary funds, and other programs. Some examples that were discussed were murals, community gardens, painting an elderly person's house, and Paint Your Heart Out. Chair Heavilin did not want it to be so restrictive that it would negate a really creative idea that had not been considered. Chair Heavilin did not want to interfere with the City's CDBG grant program under the management of Ms. Octavia Sherrod. Mr. Fisher said it would assist that function. Chair Heavilin liked this idea but was concerned that it was only available to Youth and favored opening it up to neighborhood organizations and other small organizations that did not have the funds to pay for this type of thing. College students or senior citizens should participate also, for example. Mr. Fisher said that a lot of the problems occurring in the CRA area were due to Youth. He wanted this program to give them opportunities to participate, for the reasons he stated previously. Chair Heavilin responded that there might be portions of the CRA where Youth were not creating a problem. The other Board members wanted to proceed with the program for the Youth and take another look at it later when they had more experience with it. They could always come up with a more general one later. Mr. Fenton asked if the Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, and YMCA would qualify for these grants, and was told that they would. Motion 5144 Mr. Fisher moved to approve the Youth Involvement Grant Program with the addition of providing six examples, directing it to not include any salaries or administrative costs, 24 Meeting Minutes Community Redevelopment Agency Regular Meeting Boynton Beach, Florida April 13, 2004 and a not-to-exceed $:[2K for this budget year. Vice Chair Tillman seconded the motion that carried 6-:[, Mr. Fenton dissenting. VIZ. Director's Report ('heard out of order) Town Square Task Force Mr. Hutchinson reported that the City Commission was forming a Town Square Task Force and staff is looking for a volunteer to be appointed to the task force from the CRA Board. Mr. Fenton volunteered and the Board concurred. Tours of Boynton Beach Historical Sites on May 13-15, 2004 The Florida Trust for Historic Preservation's 26th Annual Conference is being held in Delray Beach on May 13-15, 2004 with tours planned to Boynton Beach (Woman's Club and the Old High School) and Lake Worth. The organization has asked each city to be a Silver Sponsor in the amount of $1000. The City has asked the CRA to contribute one half of the sponsorship, which is $500. Motion Mr. DeMarco moved to approve an expenditure of funds to be split with the City in the amount of $500 towards Silver Sponsorship of the Florida Trust for Historic Preservation's 26th Annual Conference being held in Delray Beach on May 13-15, 2004, which includes a visit to the Old High School and the Woman's Club. Mr. Fisher seconded the motion that carried 7-0. Police Car and Uniform Logo Mr. Hutchinson asked the Board members to review and comment on the proposed logo for Police cars and uniforms, which would be included in the contract for patrol officers in the CRA area. CRA Office Renovation Mr. Hutchinson advised that staff had gathered quotes 'to put up some walls, the design for which was in the agenda packets. The quotes range from $6 - 10K. He commented that the CRA office was too small; however, he asked for another month to explore acquiring office space. Some property is left over from the Relax Inn, and he hoped that when a project came into the Bank of America block, a trade for office space could be negotiated in the new project. He noted that as matters stood at present, when the model for the CBD was delivered, they would not be able to keep it at the CRA office, but would have to loan it to the Library or to City Hall. Mr. Finkelstein suggested that 5145 25 Meeting Minutes Community Redevelopment Agency Regular Meeting Boynton Beach, Florida April 13, 2004 Mr. Hutchinson look at acquisition but also at leasing if a larger space could be located. Hr. Hutchinson said they were in 1,200 square feet now and hoped to find something with 1,700 to 2,000 feet.

Present: Jeanne Heavilin, Chairperson James Barretta Larry Finkelstein Don Fenton Douglas Hutchinson, CRA Director Absent: Henderson Tillman, Vice Chair Alexander DeMarco Charlie Fisher I. Call to Order Chairperson Heavilin called the workshop meeting to order at 6:33 p.m. The Recording Secretary called the roll and declared a quorum was present. II. Workshop A. Cash Flows, Budgets and Financial Projections for Board Direction Opening Remarks Mr. Hutchinson explained that this was is not a budget workshop, but actually a workshop to provide staff with direction on what the Board would like to include in the budget and the level of spending that the Board wants to see. First reviewed were the TIF projections on the projects that were included in the original agenda packet. For the upcoming year (2004/2005) the following figures have been projected: · Merano Bay--the projection is conservative at $6.6 million, which is 60% of what the units sold for. Tuscany for the current year (2003/2004) came in at $24 million. They have converted to condominiums and even with the homestead exemptions, the unit prices are substantially higher. The projections for 2004/2005 are $6 million. Chairperson Heavilin inquired if the projections showed the property being taxed as commercial versus residential units and Mr. Hutchinson stated that some of this shows in the projections by going up $6 million. He pointed out that there is another major building that was not occupied, and he feels that $6 million is conservative. 5148 Meeting Minutes Community Redevelopment Agency Workshop Boynton Beach, Florida April 15, 2004 Villa Del Sol - The $2 million in the projections is from the Tax Appraiser's Office. There were two buildings not on the tax rolls yet, but will be included in this coming year (2004/2005). · Industrial/Commercial - Last year there was almost $4 million and projections for next year are at $2 million. A valuation increase of 8% has also been projected for next year. Originally it was forecasted at 11%, but the increase last year was actually 14%. Mr. Hutchinson used a conservative 8%. The Tax Appraiser has the increase between 11% to 12%. Mr. Hutchinson anticipates that the TIF should be reliable based upon last year's figures. He did not anticipate as great an increase as last year. The following are the projections for year 2 (2005~2006): · Southern Builders Coastal Project--a portion of the project will be coming on line during that period and should be at $2.5 million. The Harbors - Mr. Hutchinson included this project in year two to be conservative. He used a conservative figure of $12 million, compared to their sales figures. Kensington Place - Even though this may be done in year one, Mr. Hutchinson only included it in year two. The project is going up and landscaping is being put in. A conservative figure is $2 million. The following are projections for year 3 (2006/2007): · Southern Builders come in at $10 million. · The remainder of the Coastal Bay Project is projected at $2.5 million. · The Marina Project shows up for the first time partially at $10 million. · Industrial/Commercial is projected at $2 million The following are projections for year 4 (2007/2008): · The remainder of the Marina Village should be on line. The project sold out for the residential only at $98 million. Factoring in discounts and homestead exemptions, Mr. Hutchinson projected this to be at $75 million. This does not include any retail or restaurants. He feels that this figure is very conservative. 5149 · Coastline Office Building is four years away. $2.5 million is projected. Meeting Minutes Community Redevelopment Agency Workshop Boynton Beach, Florida April 15, 2004 Blue Lagoon has closed on the property and is also four years away. The partial completion is projected at $10 million. Mr. Hutchinson thinks that this could set a record and become a $110 million to $120 million project. In the 5th year, he projected the project at an additional $65 million. The developer will be at the CRA Board meeting for site plan approval in June if everything goes according to plan. They are anticipating groundbreaking around this time next year. MLK Village - $5 million. The area is being assembled and there should be development around the 4th and 5th year. · $2 million for Industrial/Commercial. Projections for year five are as follows: · The Arches (or whatever project comes to this area) is projected at $10 million. · Coastline Office Building first phase should be completed and is projected to produce an additional $7.5 million. · Heart of Boynton has an additional $5 million projected for a total investment of $10 million. Mr. Hutchinson feels that this is a very conservative figure. · Industrial/Commercial- $1 million. None of the big projects have been pushed up and it is anticipated that they will come on line slowly. With regard to the TIF projects, for years two, three, four and five, Mr. Hutchinson projected 4%, even though the Tax Assessor's Office is two to three times this figure. He pointed out that this year they came within 1% of the projections and did receive more money than anticipated. Chairperson Heavilin questioned why Mr. Hutchinson used 4% when the Tax Assessor is using around 11% per year. He was not sure that there would be double- digit appreciation within the CRA every year. It is possible, but he felt that they could sustain at least a 4% increase each year to keep up with inflation. He pointed out that the bonding that they do will be based upon this year's income and he wanted to make sure that the figures were not overly inflated. The figures can always be adjusted if necessary. Tax rates should remain pretty stable. Chairperson Heavilin noted that the amount of the current TIF increment stated $115,738,078 and asked if this was correct. Mr. Hutchinson stated that this was a mistake and will be corrected. 5150 Meeting Minutes Community Redevelopment Agency Workshop Boynton Beach, Florida April 15, 2004 Mr. Hutchinson reported that if the CRA decides to go with short term borrowing, they could borrow between $6.1 million and $7.1 million with a five-year term. Mr. Fenton inquired if this was for obtaining a line of credit with a bank and was informed it was. Mr. Finkelstein asked what the rate of interest was based upon and Ms. Turner stated it was at 3.8% with a five-year term. Mr. Hutchinson noted that if they borrow with a credit enhancement from the City they could borrow $6.975 million, which is actually 41% of the CRA's bonding capacity. This figure is based upon 20 years amortization. If they had to borrow without the credit enhancement of the City, they are at 78% of what they could borrow. These are examples and Mr. Hutchinson pointed out that they have a greater capacity to obtain credit enhancement and to do long term bonds. Mr. Fenton assumed that the bonds would be rated AAA because of the City's endorsement at a 1%% spread. Mr. Finkelstein pointed out that if the CRA went with the 1%% spread, this increases the debt service by over $600,000. Mr. Hutchinson said that it would be higher and these figures need to be clarified. He stated that Ms. Turner would be reviewing this during her presentation. Mr. Fenton did not think it was feasible to establish a variable line of credit now because interest rates have gone up over 20 to 30 basis points in the last two weeks. He would like to see the figures at 15 years instead of 20 years because they would be paying less interest. Within five years, one-third of the debt would be paid off and they could refinance and obtain more money. Mr. Finkelstein pointed out that they need to make certain that they do not fall into a prepayment penalty that happened previously. He also thought that they could go with a fixed rate over a 15-year period. Mr. Hutchinson explained that the costs for the CRA projects could be adjusted and are not actually known. He next reviewed how he arrived at the estimates for capital projects as follows: Boynton Beach Boulevard Extension is through the phasing that has been approved. This includes permitting and design of the Promenade and Riverwalk and the underground and construction of Boynton Beach Boulevard Extension. The total costs could be $5.698 million $1,000,000 for the Old High School. Renovation costs will be between $3.8 million and $5 million. They need to have 20% to 25% to match grant underwriting in order to finish the project. MLK- The assessed value is $1.28 million and the properties are selling at 2 % to 3 times assessed value. If that were the case, it would make this project go to $3.2 million. Mr. Hutchinson estimates costs for this project at $800,000; $300,000 plus in fees, in addition to relocation costs. He estimates the total cost for this project could be $4 million. 5151 4 Meeting Minutes Community Redevelopment Agency Workshop Boynton Beach, Florida April 15, 2004 Parking includes the parking lot at Federal Highway and Ocean Avenue and Boynton Beach Boulevard. Projected costs of this project are $1.75 million. These funds will be used to secure up to 145 public spaces, depending upon the design and to reserve the right for 400 spaces in a parking garage. The $1.75 million is $1 million less than merely acquiring the property that the church is on. This would be a finished surface lot with the right to go up for additional spaces as needed. Mr. Hutchinson pointed out that he only projected out to three years for the known projects. He did not speculate on the costs for the Museum and Boynton Beach Boulevard extension. He needed direction on how the Board wanted to proceed on spending money. He pointed out that after three years the CRA would have additional bonding capacity of $17 million for other projects. If the CRA did not receive credit enhancement, this figure would drop to approximately $11 million. The figures presented show the Board how the picture looks with known factors. Mr. Finkelstein asked if the CRA wanted to keep $1 million in year 3 available for the direct incentive loan for the Arches. Mr. Hutchinson noted that this was carried forward in year 3 and 4. Mr. Hutchinson stated that the signed incentive contract would still be in effect at that time and that is why he included it. Presentation by Julie Turner - Capital Funding Options Mr. Hutchinson introduced Ms. Julie A. Turner, Principal of RBC Dain Rauscher to present a PowerPoint presentation on Capital Funding Options for the CRA. Ms. Turner stated that her presentation was based upon 20 years amortization. A copy of the presentation is on file in the City Clerk's Office. Mr. Hutchinson added that the short-term borrowing was at 5 years. Ms. Turner stated that the short term could be stretched to 7 years for more flexibility. Salient points of the presentation were - Short Term Financing: v' Provides the lowest interest costs, but would also result in lower interest earnings on the cash because the cash is being spent immediately. v' Less cash on hand and less cash flow flexibility. v' Less capacity for additional projects in a 5-year period. ,;" Future interest rate risk and may need to borrow long term for future projects when rates are higher. Long Term Financing: Higher cumulative interest costs with higher interest earnings on cash. More cash on hand and greater cash flow flexibility. 5152 5 Meeting Minutes Community Redevelopment Agency Workshop Boynton Beach, Florida April 15, 2004 v' Larger capacity for additional projects than in a 5-year period. ,/ Current Iow interest rates would be locked in. Cash could be saved for future additional projects. Mr. Hutchinson pointed out that he looked at three years of projects and he is short on funding for some. He felt it was important to get the right amount of money to get the projects done. Four financing options were looked at: Cash only Short-term financing through bank line of credit. Long-term AAA-rated, insured debt financing in FY 2004/2004 (with City pledge). Long-term non-rated debt financing in FY 2004/2005 (without City pledge). This option would have the highest cost. The proposal assumed that the CRA wanted to assume a target fund balance of 20% of prior year TIF revenues. Chairperson Heavilin thought that at one time they set an amount for the reserves. Mr. Finkelstein thought that they agreed that they needed to have a reserve, but no amount was ever set. He asked Ms. Turner if 20% was the norm for a CRA. Ms. Turner noted that most municipal governments maintain at least 10%, but those municipalities have a greater variety of revenues, which are considered more stable than tax increment revenues. Ms. Turner noted that the CRA revenues have fluctuated dramatically and were negative 22% in two years. Mr. Hutchinson explained that the figures were negative because the County pulled tax entities out of the TIF. However, there are no more tax entitles that would be pulled out of the TIF. He will discuss this at length with Ms. Turner and noted that this occurrence would not repeat. Ms. Turner stated that lending markets are extremely conservative and tax increment revenues are considered volatile and less creditworthy revenues compared to sales or gas taxes, property taxes, etc. Mr. Finkelstein said that they needed to look at the interest expense if they went with bonds as opposed to remaining with cash. Ms. Turner pointed out that annual debt service varies and the CRA could end up paying back $2 million a year. Mr. Hutchinson noted that if they went short term, the CRA would have no funds to put back, but if they went with bonds, they could take on larger projects because they would have the money in hand. Mr. Finkelstein said that these are factors that they need to look at. As noted, the cash projections in year 5 will have $3 million. Mr. Hutchinson pointed out that these are merely scenarios, but they do provide direction on how to proceed. Ms. Turner also presented short-term financing using a bank line of credit as a funding mechanism. If the CRA determined to go back to Bank of America, the CRA 5153 Meeting Minutes Community Redevelopment Agency Workshop Boynton Beach, Florida April 15, 2004 should inform the Bank that they want to refinance the current loan, but would also like to borrow an additional amount of money. The CRA should ask the Bank to do away with the pre-payment penalty and ask for today's interest rate. Mr. Hutchinson noted that they have to maintain their reserve funding, but the CRA does not have any additional surplus until the 5th year. Mr. Finkelstein inquired if the line titled "reserve fund balance" was the actual fund balance and was informed that it was. He would like to see a better spreading out of the projects because he thinks they are going to need more money to complete what they promised to accomplish. If the City agreed to bacl~ up the pledge for the CRA, this would reduce the interest rate for both short and long term financing. Ms. Turner explained that the projections she presented did not show the quarterly fluctuations and the funds indicated for that year may not always be available for a particular quarter. Mr. Hutchinson pointed out that the reserve funds are high and the true surplus is unencumbered funds. With regard to 20-year financing, this could be shortened or lengthened. At the end of the third year, they would have gotten over the quarterly fluctuations and accumulated enough revenue growth to provide additional financing capacity for $15.4 million in projects. Ms. Turner pointed out that if the CRA went with non-rated financing, the interest costs would be much higher. Chairperson Heavilin inquired why the CRA would consider this. Mr. Hutchinson responded that he has spoken to the City and the City appears to be agreeable to provide credit enhancement, but if they do not, they need to have other options. Ms. Turner stated that this would be the worst-case scenario. Mr. Finkelstein noted that there is a lot of cash remaining when this kind of money is borrowed over long term. Chairperson Heavilin suggested doing some type of combination financing. Mr. Finkelstein asked Ms. Turner if she could prepare a chart that would show the diminishing returns of the higher interest rates, the borrowing costs and net cash. He felt that this would help them decide which way to proceed. Ms. Turner stated that she could provide this. Ms. Turner concluded her presentation. III. Other Items Comments on Budget Projections Mr. Finkelstein had the following comments: (1) he would like to see the costs of the entire projects included in the figures all the way across so they could know how much they need to borrow; and (2) the projections for the Heart of Boynton should be moved up one year, because in this current year, they have not spent any money. 5154 Meeting Minutes Community Redevelopment Agency Workshop Boynton Beach, Florida April 15, 2004 Mr. Hutchinson recommended leaving $250,000. Mr. Finkglstein suggested leaving the $250,000 in the current year and to put $2 million in 2004/2005 and the balance in 2005/2006. Mr. Hutchinson recommended moving $2 million into those periods. Mr. Hutchinson will follow through on this. Chairperson Heavilin asked what the street improvements represented, and Mr. Hutchinson stated that there were none. She questioned why this was a line item. Mr. Hutchinson noted that staff needs to know how much they need to underwrite. All of the $4 million for the Heart of Boynton is going out with nothing being recovered. Mr. Finkelstein felt that the Board needed more details on the $1.75 million for the CBD Parking Site. He pointed out that there has been no analysis done to determine if these spaces are actually needed and it still needs to be determined if the parking spaces should be spread throughout various areas within the CRA. He also felt that this figure was too high and all they would be doing is purchasing rights to parking spaces, as opposed to actually buying parking spaces. Mr. Hutchinson requested direction on this, but noted that they still want to keep this on the tax rolls. Mr. Finkelstein pointed out that the Board previously discussed that they did not want to build a parking garage and Mr. Hutchinson was not clear that this had actually been decided. Mr. Hutchinson noted that a parking study had been previously done, but it is now obsolete and needs to be updated. Mr. Fenton felt that they should leave the $1.75 million in the budget until it can be determined how they should proceed with the parking. Mr. Barretta inquired how the general public would know that a project includes public parking spaces. Mr. Finkelstein responded that the public parking would be clearly marked with signage. Mr. Finkelstein questioned why $1 million has been allocated to the Old High School since they do not know what the School is going to be used for. He was under the impression that the costs for the Old High School were included in the City's bond and that the City would be rehabilitating the building. Mr. Finkelstein offered as an alternative considering contributing $50,000 a year towards the debt service of the City's bonds to do the renovations. Mr. Fenton pointed out that it has not been determined who would be in charge of operations of the School. Mr. Hutchinson said that if they went with Mr. Finkelstein's suggestion, the $50,000 would be allocated to the line item "Programs and Projects." Mr. Barretta felt that this Board should provide some direction to the City on how the building could be best used. Mr. Finkelstein thought that the City would be handling this. Chairperson Heavilin pointed out that the City did ask the CRA to provide input and a committee was formed for this purpose. Mr. Finkelstein noted that the CRA is already funding many public projects and their money is tight. Mr. Hutchinson was requested to remove the $1 million for the High School from the projections. 5155 Meeting Minutes Community Redevelopment Agency Workshop Boynton Beach, Florida April 15, 2004 Mr. Hutchinson asked how the Board wanted to handle the Boynton Beach Boulevard Extension. Mr. Finkelstein recommended that Mr. Hutchinson speak with Dennis Haynes to determine what a realistic time schedule would be for the three phases. Mr. Hutchinson felt that this could be completed within three years. Chairperson Heavilin pointed out that at the last Board meeting, the Board wanted to do the entire project. Mr. Fenton inquired if it would be beneficial to move the money immediately to SBA. Mr. Finkelstein felt that they first needed to determine if this was the place for their money. Mr. Hutchinson pointed out that this is something Ms. Turner would look at. Mr. Finkelstein would like to have a market analysis done to see where the best place would be for their money. He thought that this was being done on a quarterly basis. Ms. Turner pointed out that 90% of the governments in Florida have their money in the SBA because it is paying the highest return; however, this is subject to change. Mr. Hutchinson asked if the Board wanted to consider allocating between $500,000 to $600,000 to acquire a building and renovate it for offices. The property that staff has looked at would cost up to $500,000 and this would leave the remainder for renovations. Chairperson Heavilin felt that Mr. Hutchinson's estimates were somewhat high. Mr. Finkelstein asked if the CRA staff would consider renting larger office space. Mr. Finkelstein also recommended waiting until Ms. Turner comes back with some figures on borrowing. Ms. Turner recommended that the CRA's Controller make some phone calls in the interim to local banks to determine what the interest rates are. Mr. Finkelstein reiterated that this should be done on a quarterly basis. IV.

EXECUTE SUMMARY Staff recommends approval of the requested land use amendment and rezoning for the following reasons: The request is consistent with the objectives of the City's annexation program, relevant policies in the Comprehensive Plan, and the adopted ~edera/H/ghway Corr/dor Community Redeve/oprnent P/an. 2. The requested land use amendment and rezoning will allow the development of a project that will be a benefit to the city, both fiscally and esthetically. 3. The proposed development meets the standards expected when a project is developed in the ]:PUD zoning district. 4. There is a long-standing lack of demand for retail commercial land in the vicinity and a high proven demand for residential land use in the Federal Highway corridor. BACKGROUND When the Comprehensive Plan was adopted in 1989, it was envisioned that the properties along the Federal Highway Corridor south of the intersection of Old Dixie Highway would eventually be annexed into the City and form a retail-oriented corridor, consistent with the land use designations and zoning categories assigned by both the City and Palm Beach County and in effect at that time. For example, the "Problems and Opportunities" section of the support documents suggested that an appropriate use in this area would be new car dealerships. Page 3 File Number: LUAR 04-001-ANEX 04-001 Bayfront Over the past several years, the City has seen a shift from the perpetuation of small commercial uses along the corddor to residential uses, particularly those with densities greater than 10.8 units per acre. Higher density development was facilitated by the City's Comprehensive Plan through the establishment of the Special High Density Residential classification, intended to support redevelopment in the coastal area. This type of development furthered the pattern that existed in the corridor, south of Woolbright Road, before the adoption of the current Comprehensive Plan. At the time of its adoption, there were already 4 developments that exceeded 10.8 du/ac with densities ranging from 21 du/ac (Colonial Club) to 32.2 du/ac (Seagate). The shift has served to replace marginal and sub-standard commercial uses with residential projects that have enhanced the esthetics of the corridor, as well as the City's tax base. The remaining viable neighborhood-serving commercial uses are being concentrated into nodes located at major intersections along Federal Highway--Woolbright Road, Gulfstream Boulevard, and Old Dixie Highway. The request for a land use amendment and rezoning for the subject property continues this trend. PRO3ECT ANALYSZS The parcels, which are the subject of this land use amendment, total 2.~6 acres. Because of the size of the property under consideration, the Florida Department of Community Affairs classifies this amendment as a "small scale" amendment. A "small-scale" amendment is adopted prior to forwarding to the Florida Department of Community Affairs and is not reviewed for compliance with the state, regional and local comprehensive plans prior to adoption. State annexation law allows the annexation of enclaves that are less than 10 acres without the consent of property owners; however, in this instance, the annexation is at the request of the property owner. Currently, objectives .of the annexation program include annexing all enclaves less than 10 acres in all areas of the City that meet adopted level-of-services Standards, and incrementally annexing enclave prope~es with the intent to reduce them below the lO-acre threshold. Pursuant to Section 9.C.2(2) of the Land Development Regulations, staff is not required to review the petition against the eight (8) cdteda by which land use amendments and rezonings are to be reviewed as indicated in Seddon 9.C.7. where the proposed zoning is consistent with zoning or land use recommendations contained in the Comprehensive Plan. Usually in those instances, staff analysis relates only to consistency with other relevant portions of the Comprehensive Plan, the city's annexation program and service capability. In this instance, however, the analysis serves to strengthen the case for requesting a land use different from that of abutting properties. Whether the proposed rezoning wou/d be cons/stent with applicable comprehensive p/an poi/c/es/nc/ud/ng but not//m/ted to, a prohibition against any increase in dwe///ng unit dens/b/exceeding 50 in the hurricane evacuation zone without written approva/ of the Pa/m Beach County Emergency P/arming D/v/s/on and the C/b/'s manager. The p/ann/rig department sha// a/so recommend I/m/rah'ohs or requirements, which wou/d have to be imposed on subsequent deve/opment of the property, in order to comp/y with poi/c/es contained in the comprehensive p/an. Page 4 File Number: LUAR 04-001-ANEX 04-001 Bayfront Over the past several years, the City has seen a shift from the perpetuation of small commercial uses along the corridor to residenUal uses, particularly those with densities greater than 10.8 units per acre. Higher density development was fadlitated by the City's Comprehensive Plan through the establishment of the Special High Density Residential classificaUon, intended to support redevelopment in the coastal area. Land use amendments and rezonings, which change designaUons from commercial use to residential use are particularly consistent with two policies in the Comprehensive Plan: "Policy 1,17.1 The City shall continue to discourage add/bona/commercial and/ndustn'al uses beyond those which are currently shown on the Future Land Use Nap, except where access/s greatest and impacts on res/denb'a/ /and uses are /east';' and "Policy 1. ~ 9. ? The City shall continue to change the land use and zoning to permit only res/denb'a/ or other non-commercial uses/n areas where the demand for commercial uses will not increase, parb'cu/aHy /n the Coastal Area." The subject property is located in Planning Area V (Entrances to the City) in the Federal hl/_qhway Corridor Community Redeve/ooment P/an, which was adopted by the City on May 16, 2001. The plan's recommendaUons for this planning area include the following: "Encourage a variety of housing. Develop intensity standards that allow for a variety of housing styles and types at intensiUes that will assist in supporting the downtown area and general economic expansion." (p. 80); and "Require a transition to the adjacent gateway neighborhoods. Create development standards in the city entrance communities that establish a logical transition to the gateway communities. Building scale, massing and placement should be less intense than that of the adjacent planning areas, but substantial enough to announce an arrival in the City." (p. 8:[) In concert with the recommendations cited, the residential density of the proposed development will help to support the downtown commercial core, as well as the recognized commercial nodes in the corridor. [n addition, it is proposed at a scale and massing that will provide a transition into the downtown area, where development standards allow greater densities and more intense.massing of buildings. b. Whether the proposed rezon/ng would be contrary to the established land use pattern, or would create an isolated d/strict unrelated to adjacent and nearby districts, or would consb'tute a grant of spec/al privilege to an individual property owner as contrasted w/th the protect/on of the pub/lc we/fare. The changing development pattern in the Federal Highway corridor has seen an increase in the number of residenUal developments with densities greater than :[0.8 du/ac. This type of development furthers the pattern that existed in the corridor, south of Woolbright Road, before the adoption of the current Comprehensive Plan. At the time of its adoption, there were already 4 developments that exceeded 10.8 du/ac with densiUes ranging from 2:[ du/ac (Colonial Club) to 32.2 du/ac (Seagate). The shift in the development pattern has served to replace marginal and sub-standard commercial uses with residential projects that have been an Page 5 File Number: LUAR 04-001-ANEX 04-001 Bayfront enhancement to the esthetics of the corridor, as well as the City's tax base, supporting exisUng commercial nodes and the downtown core. The requested map amendment and rezoning would serve to increase the range of housing opportunities available in the redevelopment area. At the same time, they will increase allowed residential density adjacent to existing single family homes. c. Whether changed or chang/ng cond/b'ons make the proposed rezon/ng des~tab~e. The request for conversion of parcels designated for commercial uses to multi-family residential for condominium and townhouse development has become more prevalent in the Federal Highway corridor in the last four years. While not the case in this instance, otten the conversion serves to remove marginal, and sometimes undesirable, commercial uses. Additionally, adoption of the ]:PUD regulations in tune 2002, provided an attractive incentive for redevelopment and infill projects on smaller parcels in the Federal Highway corridor. These two changes in conditions serve to make the proposed rezoning desirable. d. Whether the proposed use would be compab'b/e w/th ub'/ity systems, roadways, and other pub//c £ac///b'e$. The applicant has provided a traffic analysis that indicates that if the property were redeveloped as a commercial use, it would generate 3,247 average daily trips compared to 439 average daily trips generated by the proposed multi-family development, or 2,808 fewer trips per day. According to link analysis, preformed by Kimley-Horn and Associates during the TCEA application process, the Federal Highway roadway from 23~ Avenue to George Bush Boulevard has a daily capacity of 29,300 trips at LOS "D'; with Average Annual Daily Trips (AADT) for the year 2003 at 22,772. Based on the City's adopted Levels of service (LOS) for potable water (200 gallons per capita per day [GPCD]) and sewer service (90 GPCD) the projected demands are expected to be 20,640 gallons for water and 9,288 GPCD sewer service. The City's utility plants currently have unreserved capacity to serve the projected demands of the proposed project. With respect to solid waste, the Palm Beach County Solid Waste Authority has stated that adequate capacity exists to accommodate the county's municipalities throughout the :LO-year planning period. The School District of Palm Beach County has reviewed the application and has issued a statement that the project complies with the adopted Level of Service (LOS) for school concurrency. The concurrency determination is valid for one year from March 24, 2004, the date of issuance. Lastly, drainage will also be reviewed in detail as part of the site plan approval process, and must satisfy all requirements of the city and local drainage permitting authorities. Page 6 File Number: LUAR 04-O01-ANEX 04-001 Bayfront Whether the proposed rezoning would be compaq'hie with the current and future use of adjacent and nearby properties, or would affect the property values of adjacent or nearby properties. The proposed rezoning will be compatible with adjacent and nearby properties, and will only serve to increase the value of these properties. Whether the property is physically and economically developable under the existing zoning. The property is currently vacant and most probably could be developed; however, with annexation into the City, the Palm Beach County zoning must be changed to a city zoning district. C-3 Community Commercial would most nearly correspond with Palm Beach County's Commercial General zoning district, and the property could be developed under C-3 Commercial zoning. g. Whether the proposed rezoning /s ora scale which/s reasonably related to the needs of the neighborhood and the c/b/ as a whole. The requested land use amendment and rezoning present the opportunity for redevelopment in a highly visible entrance corddor to the City and will also support the current trend toward greater residential uses in this area, economic revitalization, and downtown redevelopment. h. Whether there are adequate s/tes elsewhere/n the dty for the proposed use, in districts where such use/s a/ready a/lowed. Residential densities of 20 du/ac are permitted in the Federal Highway corridor to encourage infill development and redevelopment. There are a limited number of sites elsewhere in the city where residenUal development could occur at a density of ;L0.8 du/ac; however, those sites do not offer the opportunity for redevelopment and infill development that this location affords. Nor would development of those available sites serve to promote the goals of the Community Redevelopment Agency and the Federal Highway Corridor Community Redevelopment Plan. 14ASTER/SI'rE PLAN ANALYS]:S The IPUD regulations are intended to be used in situations where new development or redevelopment is proposed within an already developed area or neighborhood located in the "Federa/Highway Corridor Community Redevelopment Plan"Study Areas ]: and V. (The site for Bayfront is in Area V.) A mixture of uses, including residential, retail commercial and office, may be allowed to the extent that no land use conflicts will result and the basic intent of the Zoning Code and the Comprehensive Plan will be followed. ]:t is a basic expectation that anyone requesting the use of the :]:PUD district will develop to standards that exceed the City's basic development standards in terms of site design, building architecture and construction materials, amenities and landscape design. To that end, all applications for rezoning to an ]:PUD must be accompanied by a detailed master plan or site plan. Tn this instance, an application for site plan approval has been submitted and is being reviewed concurrent with this request. Page 7 File Number: LUAR 04-001-ANEX 04-001 Bayfront The site plan shows forty-eight (48) multi-family units in 5 structures, each containing three stories, Designs shown for the buildings are a derivative of Mediterranean architecture with stucco walls, S-tile roofs and decorative moldings, appliques columns and balconies; all representative of a relatively high quality architectural design and materials The maximum density allowed by the Special High Density Residential land use classification is 20 du/ac, the applicant proposes a density of 19.5 du/ac. The proposed units are a mix of single-story and two-story condominiums ranging between two (2) and three (3) bedrooms. Each of the five (5) buildings would contain a variety of unit types. According to the floor plans the smallest unit would be 1,260 square feet in area and the largest unit would be 1,640 square feet. Building setbacks are as follows: Front: 10 feet Side 5 feet Rear 10 feet A recreation area of approximately 0.11 acre will be located near the center of the development. The proposed recreation area would include a pool area, and a clubhouse of approximately 1,800 sq. ft. that includes a clubroom with kitchenette and bathrooms.

West: Developed residential property located in unincorporated Palm Beach County, designated Medium Residential 5 and zoned RlVl Multi-family Residential EXECU'DI'V'I~ SUMMARY Staff recommends approval of the requested land use amendment and rezoning for the following reasons: 1. The request is consistent with the intent of the Comprehensive Plan; 2. ]~t will not create additional impacts on infrastructure that have not been anticipated in the Comprehensive Plan and will be compaUble with adjacent land uses; 3. It will represent redevelopment and enhancement of the Federal Highway Corridor; and 4. Will contribute to the overall economic development of the City and will increase the range of housing opportunities for residents of Boynton Beach. BACKGROUND When the Comprehensive Plan was adopted in 1989, it was envisioned that the properties along the Federal Highway Corridor south of the intersection of Old Dixie Highway would eventually be annexed into the City and form a retail-oriented corridor, consistent with the land use designations and zoning categories assigned by both the City and Palm Beach County and in effect at that time. For example, the "Problems and Opportunities" section of the support documents suggested that an appropriate use in this area would be new car dealerships. Over the past several years, the City has seen a shift from the perpetuation of small commercial uses along the corridor to residential uses, particularly those with densities greater than 10.8 units per acre. Higher density development was facilitated by the City's Comprehensive Plan through the establishment of the Special High Density ResidenUal classification, intended to support redevelopment in the coastal area. This type of development furthered the pattern that existed in the corridor, south of Woolbright Road, before the adoption of the current Comprehensive Plan. At the time of its adoption, there were already 4 developments that exceeded 10.8 du/ac with densities ranging from 21 du/ac (Colonial Club) to 32.2 du/ac (Seagate). The shift has served to replace marginal and sub-standard commercial uses with residential projects that have enhanced the esthetics of the corridor, as well as the City's tax Page 3 File Number: LUAR 04-003 Oceanside base. The remaining viable neighborhood-serving commercial uses are being concentrated into nodes located at major intersections along Federal Highway--Woolbright Road, Gulfstream Boulevard, and Old Dixie Highway. The request for a land use amendment and rezoning for the subject property continues this trend. PRO3ECT ANALYSIS The parcels, which are the subject of this land use amendment, to~al 2.26 acres. Because of the size of the property under consideration, the Florida Department of Community Affairs classifies this amendment as a "small scale" amendment. A "small-scale" amendment is adopted prior to forwarding to the Florida Deparl~nent of Community Affairs and is not reviewed for compliance with the state, regional and local comprehensive plans prior to adopUon. Even though ~he requested density for the site is greater than 10 du/ac, ~he parcel is less than 10 acres in size, is located within the expanded Community Redevelopment Area, and would be considered an urban redevelopment project. The criteria used to review Comprehensive Plan amendments and rezonings are listed in the Land Development RegulaUons, Chapter 2, Section 9, Adm/n/strab'on and Enforcement, [tern C. Comprehensive P/an Amendments: Rezon/ngs. These criteria are required to be part of a staff analysis when the proposed change includes an amendment to the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map. Whether the proposed rezon/ng would be cons/stent w/th applicable comprehens/ve p/an po/ides including but not//m/ted to, a proh/b/b'on against any increase/n dwelling unit density exceeding 50 in the hurricane evacuab'on zone without written approval of the Palm Beach County Emergency Planning D/v/s/on and the City's r/s/~ manager. The planning department shaft a/so recommend/imitaEons or requirements, which would have to be imposed on subsequent development of the property,/n order to comply w/th po/lc/es contained in the comprehensive p/an. Over the past several years, the City has seen a shi~c from the perpetuation of small commercial uses along the corridor to residential uses, particularly those with densities greater than 10.8 units per acre. Higher density development was facilitated by the City's Comprehensive Plan through the establishment of the Special High Density Residential classification, intended to support redevelopment in the coastal area. Land use amendments and rezonings, which change designations from commercial use to residential use are particularly consistent with two policies in the Comprehensive Plan: "Policy 1.1Z 1 The City shall conb'nue to discourage add/bona/commercial and industn'al uses beyond those which are currently shown on the Future Land Use Map, except where access/s greatest and impacts on res/denb'a/ /and uses are /east';' and "Po/icy 1.19. 7 The City shall conb'nue to change the land use and zoning to permit only res/denb'a/ or other non-commercial uses/n areas where the demand for commercial uses will not increase, parb'cu/ar/y /n the Coasta/ Area. " Page 4 File Number: LUAR 04-003 Oceanside The subject properly is located in Planning Area V (Entrances to the City) in the Federal Hi_qhway Corridor Community Redevelo. oment Plan, which was adopted by the City on May 16, 2001. The plan's recommendations for this planning area include the following: 'Encourage a variety of housing, Develop intensity standards that allow for a variety of housing styles and types at intensities that will assist in supporting the downtown area and general economic expansion." (p. 80); and "Require a transition to the adjacent gateway neighborhoods. Create development standards in the city entrance communities that establish a logical transition to the gateway communities. Building scale, massing and placement should be less intense than that of the adjacent planning areas, but substanUal enough to announce an arrival in the City." (p. 81) In concert with the recommendations cited, the residential density of the proposed development will help to support the downtown commercial core, as well as the recognized commercial nodes in the corridor. In addition, it is proposed at a scale and massing that will provide a transition into the downtown area, where development standards allow greater densities and more intense massing of buildings. bm Whether the proposed rezon/ng would be contrary to the established land use pattern, or would create an isolated d/strict unrelated to adjacent and nearby districts, or would constYtute a grant of special privilege to. an individual property owner as contrasted with the protection of the public welfare. Parcels lying on west and southwest of the subject property are in unincorporated Palm Beach County and are designated for single-family residential with a density of 5 du/ac. Tn addition, property within the City having C-3 Community Commercial zoning may develop as multi-family residential at a density of 10.8 du/ac and in the County, property with CHH land use has the alternative of developing at 5 du/ac. The changing development pattern in the Federal Highway corridor has seen an increase in the number of residential developments with densities greater than 10,8 du/ac. This type of development furthers the pattern that existed in the corridor, south of Woolbdght Road, before the adoption of the current Comprehensive Plan. At the time of its adoption, there were already 4 developments that exceeded 10.8 du/ac with densities ranging from 21 du/ac (Colonial Club) to 32.2 du/ac (Seagate). The shift in the development pattern has served to replace marginal and sub-standard commercial uses with residential projects that have been an enhancement to the esthetics of the corridor, as well as the City's tax base, supporting existing commercial nodes and the downtown core. The requested map amendment and rezoning would serve to increase the range of housing opportunities available in the redevelopment area. At the same time, they will increase allowed residential density adjacent to existing single family homes. c. Whether changed or changing conditions make the proposed rezon/ng desirable. Page 5 File Number: LUAR 04-003 Oceanside The request for conversion of parcels designated for commercial uses to multi-family residential for condominium and townhouse development has become more prevalent in the Federal Highway corridor in the last four years. While not the case in this instance, oEen the conversion serves to remove marginal, and sometimes undesirable, commercial uses. Additionally, adoption of the [PUD regulations in 3une 2002, provided an attractive incentive for redevelopment and infill projects on smaller parcels in the Federal Highway corridor. These two changes in conditions serve to make the proposed rezoning desirable. d. Whether the proposed use would be compat/'b/e w/th uE//ty systems, roadways, and other pub/lc fac/l/t/es. The applicant has provided a traffic analysis that indicates that if the property were developed to its fully-allowed potential as a commercial use, it would generate 3,073 average daily trips compared to 42:t average daily trips generated by the proposed multi-family development, or 2,652 fewer trips per day. According to link analysis, preformed by Kimley-Horn and Assodates during the TCEA application process, the Federal Highway roadway from 2.3r~ Avenue to George Bush Boulevard has a daily capacity of 29,300 trips at LOS "D'; with Average Annual Daily Trips (AADT) for the year 2003 at 22,772. Based on the City's adopted Levels of Service (LOS) for potable water (200 gallons per capita per day [GPCD]) and sewer service (90 GPCD) the projects demands are expected to be Z9,350 gallons for water and 8,708 GPCD sewer service. The City's utility plants currently have unreserved capacity to serve the projected demands of the proposed project. With respect to solid waste, the Palm Beach County Solid Waste Authority has stated that adequate capacity exists to accommodate the county's municipalities throughout the 10-year planning period. The School Distric~ of Palm Beach County has reviewed the application and has issued a statement that the project complies with the adopted Level of Service (LOS) for school concurrency. The determination is valid for one year from March 24, 2004, the date of issuance. Lastly, drainage will also be reviewed in detail as part of the site plan approval process, and must satisfy all requirements of the city and local drainage permitting authorities. Whether the proposed rezoning would be compat/'ble with the current and future use of adjacent and nearby properb'es, or would affect the property values of adjacent or nearby properties. The proposed rezoning will be compatible with adjacent and nearby properties, and will only serve to increase the value of these properties. f. Whether the property/s physically and economically developable under the ex/st/nE zoning. The property is currently developed as a sales office for the rezoning applicant, Southern Homes, and is developable under current commercial zoning. Page 6 File Number: LUAR 04-003 Oceans/de Whether the proposed rezon/ng is ora sca/e which is reasonably re/ated to the needs of the ne/ghborhoed and the c/ty as a who/e. The requested land use amendment and rezoning present the opportunity for redevelopment in a highly visible entrance corridor to the City and will also support the current trend toward greater residential uses in this area, economic revitalization, and downtown redevelopment. h. Whether there are adequate s/tes e/sewhere /n the ¢/ty for the proposed use,/n distr/ct~ where such use is a/ready a/lowed. Residential densities of 20 du/ac are permitted in the Federal Highway corridor to encourage infill development and redevelopment. There are a limited number of sites elsewhere in the city where residential development could occur at a density of :10.8 du/ac; however, those sites do not offer the opportunitY for redevelopment and infill development that this location affords. Nor would development of those available sites serve to promote the goals of the Community Redevelopment Agency and the Federal Highway Corridor Community Redevelopment Plan. t4ASTER/STrE PLAN ANALYSTS The ]:PUD regulaUons are intended for use in situations where new development or redevelopment is proposed within an already developed area or neighborhood located in the "Federal Highway Cor/fdor Community Redevelopment Plan"Study Areas ! and V. (The site for Bayfront is in Area V.) A mixture of uses, including residential, retail commercial and office, may be allowed to the extent that no land use conflicts will result and the basic intent of the Zoning Code and the Comprehensive Plan will be followed. [t is a basic expectation that anyone requesting the use of the IPUD district will develop to standards that exceed the City's basic development standards in terms of site design, building architecture and construction materials, amenities and landscape design. To that end, all applications for rezoning to an ]:PUD ]:nfill Planned Unit Development must be accompanied by a detailed master plan or site plan. In this instance, an application for site plan approval has been submitted and is being reviewed concurrent with this request. The site plan shows forty-five (45) multi-family units in 5 structures, each containing three stories. Designs shown for the buildings are a derivative of Mediterranean architecture with stucco walls, S-tile roofs and decoraUve moldings, appliques columns and balconies; all represent a relatively high qualitY of architectural design and materials The maximum density allowed by the Special High Density Residential land use classification is 20 du/ac, the applicant proposes a density of 19.9 du/ac. The proposed units are a mix of single-story and two-story condominiums ranging between two (2) and three (3) bedrooms. Each of the five (5) buildings would contain a variety of unit types. According to the floor plans the smallest unit would be 1,260 square feet in area and the largest unit would be 1,640 square feet. Page 7 File Number: LUAR 04-003 Oceanside Building setbacks are as follows: Front: 10 feet Side 5 feet Rear 10 feet A recreation area of approximately 0.08 acre will be located along the north boundary of the development. The proposed recreation area would include a pool area, and a clubhouse of approximately 1,800 sq. ff. with clubroom, kitchenette and bathrooms. CONCLUSIONS/RECOMI~! ENDATIONS As indicated herein, this request is consistent with the intent of the Comprehensive Plan; will not create addiUonal impacts on infrastructure that have not been anticipated in the Comprehensive Plan and will be compatible with adjacent land uses. It will represent redevelopment and enhancement of the Federal Highway Corridor, will contribute to the overall economic development of the City and. will increase the range of housing opportuniUes for residents of Boynton Beach. Therefore, staff recommends that the subject request be approved. If the Planning and Development Board or the City Commission recommends conditions, they will be included within Exhibit "B'.

Rumpf~~' Director of Planning & Zoning Ed Breese Principal Planner April 30, 2004 Coastal Bay Colony - File No. MPMD 04-002 Master Plan Modification (Amending setbacks) PRO3ECT NAME: LOCAl'TON: APPLICANT: LAND USE/ZONING: Coastal Bay Colony - MPMD 04-002 2505 South Federal Highway Thomas Pagnotta, Director of Operations for Southern Homes Special High Density Residential (SHDR) / ]'nfill Planned Unit Development ([PUD) NATURE OF REQUEST Mr. Thomas Pagnotta, Director of Operations for Southern Homes, is requesting to modi~ the Master Plan for Coastal Bay Colony. This development is located on the west side of South 'Federal Highway, just south of Golf Road (see Exhibit "A"- Location Map). The specific request is to amend the side setbacks for Lots 3 and 59 from the previously approved ten (:~0) feet to five (5) feet, in order to improve and enhance the front entry and drive. BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS On February 18, 2003, the City Commission granted site plan approval for the Coastal Bay Colony project, a development consisting of 64 fee simple townhouse units in :[2 separate buildings on a 4.34-acre parcel (see Exhibit "B" - Site Plan). The plan also includes a recreation area with a clubhouse and pool. The number of units within each building varies from three (3) to eight (8) units. The buildings will be two (2) and three (3) stories high and include two (2) and three (3) bedroom units. The approval was subject to staff comments and included concurrency certification for all applicable levels of service. On April 20, 2004, the City Commission granted site plan time extension approval for this project, based upon staff and CRA recommendation, as Southern Homes had been diligently working to finalize all required paperwork and drawings. According to the applicant, the proposed amendment would improve the entrance to the site by providing, two ~es of stacking in front of the entry gates. One lane would accommOdate residents through an electronic .emote control within their vehicle. The other lane would allow visitors/guests to dial the individual homeowners for admittance through a keypad system. Additionally, the maneuvering area immediately in front of the gates has been expanded to improve the traffic circulation and turning movements of vehicles X Memorandum No. PZ 04-096 Coastal Bay Colony MPMD 04-002 Page entering and exiting through the gates. As a result of these proposed improvements, the side setbacks of townhouses on lots 3 and 59. are being reduced from ten (10) feet to five (5) feet. The original Master Plan proposed a six (6) foot high pre-cast concrete wall along the north and south property lines of the development, with lots 3 and 59 having ten (10) feet between the wall and the associated townhouse. As proposed with this Master Plan Modification, lot 3 would now have five (5) feet between the structure and the north buffer wall and lot 59 would have five (5) feet between the structure and the south buffer wall. A review of the adjacent properties revealed that the property to the north is a Sunoco Gas Station, zoned Community Commercial (C-3), which would allow a zero (0) side setback from this project. However, the portion of the Sunoco parcel immediately adjacent to the requested five (5) foot setback is an asphalt area used for parking and traffic circulation. The property to the south is a professional office plaza, zoned Community Commercial (C,-3), also requiring no side setback. The segment of the site immediately to the south and adjacent to the requested five (5) foot setback is a portion of the large parking lot for the plaza. Depending upon the ultimate use and site design if redeveloped, adjacent uses could negatively affect the subject units of this project. However, based upon the above information, it would appear as though the requested amendment to the Master Plan has little to no affect on the adjacent properties and improves the on-site operations and traffic circulation for Coastal Bay Colony. RECOMMENDA11:ON The Technical Review Committee (TRC) has reviewed this Master Plan Modification request, and recommends approval, based upon the attributes of the entire project, the compatibility of the proposed modification with both the intent of the IPUD zoning and the surrounding urban environment, and given the lack of negaUvf impacts upon adjacent properties. This staff recommendation is contingent upon the comments indicated i~. Exhibit "C" - Conditions of Approval. Any additional conditions recommended by the CRA or City Commission shall be documented accordingly in the Conditions of Approval.

Southern half - partially developed residential property located in unincorporated Palm Beach County with a Commercial High (CH/5) land use classificaUon, zoned Residential Multi-family (RM). Site Characteristic: According to the survey, the subject property is comprised of two .(2) lots and sparsely populated with palm trees and various groundcover plants. This undeveloped site also contains a six (6)-foot high fence located along its southem perimeter. The highest elevation is a point :t4. ! feet above sea level, located at the southwest corner of the site. No unity of title would be required for this project because all new legal descriptions (for each unit) would be addressed during the replat process (see Exhibit "C' - Conditions of Approval). BACKGROUND Proposal: rvlr. Carlos Ballbe, representative for Southern Homes of Palm Beach IV, LLC, is proposing a new site plan for 48 fee-simple townhouse units. Approval of this project is contingent upon the approval of the corresponding request to annex the subject property into the City Of Boynton Beach (see Exhibit "C'- CondiUons of Approval). The applicant would also be requesting to designate the subject property with the. ]:nflll Planned Unit Development (]:PUD) zoning district. Townhouses are permitted uses in the IPUD zoning district. The maximum density allowed by the Special High Density Residential (HDR) land use classification is 20 du/ac, which would allow the developer a maximum of 49 units. The project would be built in one (1) phase. ANALYSIS Concurrency: Traffic: A traffic statement was sent to the Palm Beach County Traffic Division for concurrency review in order to ensure an adequate level of service. The Palm Beach County Traffic Division has determined that the proposed residential project is located within the Coastal Residential Exception Areas of the county, and therefore meets the Traffic Performance Standards of Palm Beach County. No building permits are to be issued by the town, after the 2005 build-out date. The County traffic concurrency approval is subject to the Project Aggregation Rules set forth in the Traffic Performance Standards Ordinance. Drainage: Conceptual drainage information was provided for the City's review. The Engineering Division has found the conceptual information to be adequate and is Staff Report - Bayfront (NWSP 04-002) Memorandum No PZ 04-091 Page 3 School: Driveways: Parking Facility: Landscaping: recommending that the review of specific drainage soluUons be deferred until time of permit review. All South Florida Water Management District permits and other drainage related permits must be submitted at time of building permit (see Exhibit "C'- Conditions of Approval). The School District of Palm Beach County has reviewed the application and has determined that adequate capacity exists to accommodate the projected resident population. The project proposes one (1) point of ingress / egress to the subject site, located on Federal Highway. The ingress lane would be 13 feet in width and the egress lane would be 12 feet in width. Four (4) inch wide double lane striping would separate the entrance and exit lanes. According to the Typical Pavement Section shown on the site plan details (sheet SP2 of 2), the private rights-of-way, internal to the development would be 60 feet in width. Each side (or half) of this right-of-way would consist of 12 feet of asphalt and 18 foot long parking stalls for a total of 30 feet. Additionally, a four (4) foot wide pedestrian sidewalk would be placed in front of each dwelling unit for pedestrian circulation. Two (2) and three (3) bedroom dwelling units require two (2) parking spaces per unit. The project proposes 48 residential units in conjunction with a clubhouse / recreation areas and therefore, 96 parking spaces would be required (see Exhibit "C"- Conditions of Approval). The plans show that the development would have a total of :[08 parking spaces or an excess of 12 spaces. Five (5) of the spaces would be designated for handicap use. The parking spaces would be located throughout the project but each unit would have a row of parking spaces in close proximity to their front door. According to the Traffic Markings plan (sheet TM! Of :t), the 90- degree parking stalls would be dimensioned nine (9) feet in width by :[8-feet in length. The handicap parking spaces would be dimensioned :[2 feet in width (with an extra 5-feet of striping) and :[8 feet in length. According to the site plan tabular data (sheet SP2 of 2), the proposed pervious area would total 0.68 acres or 26.32% of the site. The Landscape Quantities table indicates that 59.5% of the trees and 52.6% of the shrubs would be native. However, at the time of permitting, the landscape plan shall provide 50% native plant materials for the following categories: shade trees, palm trees, and shrubs / groundcover (see Exhibit "C' - Conditions of Approval). The site plan (sheet SP1 of 2) shows that a landscape buffer seven (7) feet- three (3) inches is proposed along the west (N 08°:[3'3:['' E) property line. The landscape plan (sheet P-l) shows that a row of White Stopper hedges and Green Buttonwood trees are proposed within this landscape buffer. The south landscape buffer (along property line - S 89°40'16'' W) would be at least five (5) feet in width. This landscape buffer would contain a row of White Stopper hedges and a mix of Live Oak, Cabbage palm, and Wax Privet trees. The north lan-dscape buffer (along property line - N 89°40'16'' E) would be at least five (5) feet in width. This Staff Report - Bayfront (NWSP 04-002) Memorandum No PZ 04-091 Page 4 Building and Site: landscape buffer would contain the same plant material as the southern landscape buffer. However, it would also have 10 Pink Trumpet trees proposed within the rear yard of the townhouses. The east landscape buffer (along property line - S 17013'26'' W) would be at least 10 feet - two (2) inches wide. This buffer would contain more landscape material than the other buffers because it is adjacent to Federal Highway. This buffer would be planted with the following: seven (7) Wax Privet, seven (7) Cabbage palm, four (4.) Pink Trumpet, two (2)'l~bouchina, two (2) Hedjool Date palm, :[0 White Stopper, 10 Japanese Yew, 30 Dwarf Bougainvillea, and 61 Wax Leaf Jasmine. The front of each unit would have either Washingtonia palms or Live Oak trees and Wax Leaf Jasmine groundcover. All air conditioners would be located on the ground to the rear of each unit and screened with various hedge material. The clubhouse would be surrounded by a row of White Stopper hedges and Green Malayan Coconut palm trees. The applicant is requesting to rezone the property to the IPUD zoning district and build to a density of 11.9.5 dwelling units per acre. The maximum density allowed by IPUD zoning district (Special High Density Residential land use classification) is 20 dwelling units per acre. The IPUD zoning district allows buildings to reach a maximum height of 45 feet, however, a lesser height could be imposed if compatibility with adjacent properties becomes an issue. The proposed three (3)- story fee-simple townhouses would be 36 feet - nine (9) inches, measured at the mean roof height. The peak of the roof would be 4.3 feet - four (4.) inches in height. According to the site plan, a C.B.S. wall, six (6) feet in height would be placed around the entire property. Although not dimensioned, it appears that the new wall would be setback at least four (4) feet from the east property line (facing Federal Highway). The 48 dwelling units are proposed within five (5) separate buildings on the 2.46- acre site. The plan proposes a mix of two (2) and three (3) bedroom units. Each of the five (5) buildings would contain varying unit types as well (Unit A, Unit B, or Unit C). According to the floor plans (sheets ~.2 and 13), the smallest sized unit would be 1,260 square feet in area and the largest sized unit would be 1,64.0 square feet. The IPUD zoning district has no actual building setback requirements, however, the buildings are arranged in such a way that they would exceed the basic development standards. On the site plan tabular data, the minimum setbacks are shown as follows: front - 10 feet, rear- 10 feet, and side - 5 feet. However, the building labeled as"Building 3" is shown on the site plan to be setback 10 feet - six (6) inches from the south (side) property line, a difference of almost five (5) feet. This is because the developer wants to be able to have the flexibility to deviate from the minimum setback such as long as the buildings do not further encroach into the required setbacks. Staff concurs with this scenario and notes that the Setback table shown on sheet SP2 of 2 regulates the project's minimum required setbacks. Each unit owner would be allowed to have a 30 square foot concrete patio in the Staff Report - Bayfront (NWSP 04-002) Memorandum No PZ 04-091 Page 5 Design: Signage: rear yard. The concrete patios would be 10 feet In length by three (3) feet in depth, resulting in a. seven (7) to eight (8) foot distance between it and the south property line. "Building ! and 2" are proposed along the east property line. They would be setback 10 feet - two (2) inches from the east (front) properly line. No concrete patios are proposed for these units. The plan shows that "Building 5" would be setback at least 11 feet from the north (side) property line. The concrete patios would be setback eight (8) feet from the north property line. Finally, "Building 4"would be setback 10 feet- six (6) inches from the west (rear) property line. No screened or solid-roofed enclosures are proposed or permitted for any of the units. The pool / recreation area would be located near the center of the development. It would include a pool area and a clubhouse building. The elevation (sheet 1) shows that the building would have a mean roof height of 14 feet - 10 inches with the peak of the decorative cupola at 21 feet- six (6) inches. A six (6) foot high white aluminum fence would surround the enUre recreation area. The proposed buildings and clubhouse resemble a Neo-Mediterranean design with Spanish "S" '131e roof. The majority of exterior walls of the buildings will have a smooth stucco finish with multiple color options. The varieties of Sherwin Williams paints are proposed as follows: Torchlight SW 6374, Golden Oak SW 2824, and Ivory SW 6107. All buildings will be accentuated with faux balconies having aluminum railings, window shutters, stucco banding, and imitation keystone trim. All accent features such as entry doors, pre-cast concrete balustrades and caps, pre-cast columns, and all architectural enhancements such as raised trim and smooth stucco banding represents relatively high quality architectural design and materials. A covered entry canopy is proposed at the main entrance along Federal Highway. Although not dimensioned, when scaled, the entry canopy would have a clearance of approximately 18 feet-six (6) inches. The bottom of this arch would be 12 feet - six (6) inches in height. The main access drive leads directly to the recreation area. The recreation area would serve as a terminating vista from Federal Highway. The plans propose one (1) type of outdoor freestanding lighting fixture. The photometric plan detail (sheet PH1 of 1) shows that the light pole would be 20 feet in height. The material would be a square concrete pole. The color of the pole fixture is undetermined at this time. The conceptual entrance elevation shows that a "Bayfront" sign would be located on the entry walls located along Federal Highway. However, the detail does not indicate the signage area, materials, or color. Staff recommends that the lettering be made of PVC and bronze in color. The wall shall be painted the same or similar to the building colors. The signs would have to comply with Chapter 21, Article ZV, Section 1.D of the Land Development Regulations (see Exhibit "C"- Conditions of Approval). Staff Report - Bayfront (NWSP 04-002) Memorandum No PZ 04-091 Page 6 RECOMMENDATION: The Technical Review Committee ('I'RC) has reviewed this request for new site plan approval. Staff recommends approval of the site plan, contingent upon successful annexation and rezoning (ANEX 04- 001) and also subject to satisfying all comments indicated in Exhibit "C"- Conditions of Approval.

Developed residential properly located in unincorporated Palm Beach County with a Commercial High (CH/5) land use classification, zoned Residential Multi-family (RM). The subject property is shaped like a parallelogram and is comprised of two (2) lots totaling 2.26 acres. As indicated on the survey, the site fronts on Federal Highway, just south of Victoria's Closet storage use project (COUS 02-004). The subject site is nestled in a pocket of properties both inside and outside the city limits. Any neighboring properties not located within the city are under Palm Beach County jurisdiction. Two (2) years ago, Mr. Carlos Ballbe submitted a new site plan (NWSP 02-027) to construct a temporary, 3,200 square foot sales / construction trailer for Southern Homes of Palm Beach. The temporary sales / construcUon trailer is currently used as the "home base" for the applicant's multiple residential projects (i.e. Merano Bay, Coastal Bay Colony, Bayfront, and Oceanside) planned in the City of Boynton Beach. In addition to the sales trailer and related parking areas, the survey shows the site contains Cabbage Palm, slash pine, and some unidentified trees. The eastern portion of the site has been developed while the western portion remains undeveloped with native and exotic vegetation. The survey from the previous staff report (Memo No. 03-036) indicated that the highest elevation is 10 feet - five (5) inches, located towards the southern portion of the site near the center. No elevations are indicated on this site plan's survey. BACKGROUND Mr. Carlos Ballbe, representative for Southern Homes of Palm Beach IV, LLC, is proposing a new site plan for 45 fee-simple townhouse units. Approval of this project is contingent upon the approval of the corresponding request to rezone the property from C-3 to ]:PUD (see Exhibit"C"- Conditions of Approval). Townhouses are permitted uses in the IPUD zoning district. The maximum density allowed by the Special High Density Residential (HDR) land use classification .is 20 du/ac, which would allow the developer a maximum of 45 units. The project would be built in one (:[) phase. The staff report (Memo No. PZ03-036) for the sales trailer project Indicated that the use of the trailer would cease after two (2) years. It appears as though that estimation was accurate as evidenced by this new site plan request. A billboard is located at the southeast corner of the property. It would be removed in conjunction with the development of the townhomes (see Exhiblt"C"- Conditions of Approval). Staff Report - Oceanside (NWSP 04-004) Memorandum No PZ 04-093 Page 3 Concurrency: Traffic: Drainage: School: Driveways: Parking Facility: Landscaping: /~, NALYS*rS A traffic statement was sent to the Palm Beach County Traffic Division for concurrency review in order to ensure an adequate level of service, The Palm Beach County Traffic Division has determined that the proposed residential project is located within the Coastal ResldenUal ExcepUon Areas of the county, and therefore meets the Traffic Performance Standards of Palm Beach County, No building permits are to be Issued by the city, after the 2005 build-out date, The County traffic concurrency approval Is subject to the Project AggregaUon Rules set forth in the Traffic Performance Standards Ordinance, Conceptual drainage information was provided for the City's review. The Engineering Division has found the conceptual information to be adequate and is recommending that the review of specific drainage solutions be deferred until time of permit review. All South Florida Water Management District permits and other drainage related permits must be submitted at time of building permit (see Exhibit "C"- Conditions of Approval). The School District of Palm Beach County has reviewed the application and has determined that adequate capacity exists to accommodate the projected resident population, The project proposes one (1) point of ingress / egress to the subject site, located on Federal Highway. The site plan (sheet SP1 of 2) shows that this point of access would be 25 feet in width and allow for right-turn-only egress. Four (4) inch wide double striping would separate the entrance and exit lanes. According to the Typical Pavement Section shown on the site plan details (sheet SP2 of 2), the private rights-of-way, internal to the development would be 60 feet in width. Each side (or hal0 of this right-of-way would consist of 12 feet of asphalt and 18 foot long 90-degree parking stalls for a total of 30 feet. Additionally, a four (4) foot wide pedestrian sidewalk would be placed in front of each dwelling unit for pedestrian circulation. Two (2) and three (3) bedroom dwelling units require two (2) parking spaces per unit. The project proposes 45 residential units and therefore, 90 parking spaces woUld be required (See Exhibit"C"- Conditions of Approval). The plans show that the development would have a total of 92 parking spaces or two (2) excess parking spaces to be located in front of the clubhouse area. All parking spaces would be distributed throughout the project but each unit would have a row of parking spaces in close proximity to their front.door. According to the Traffic Markings plan (sheet TM1 Of 1), the 90-degree parking stalls would be dimensioned nine (9) feet in width by 18-feet in length. The handicap parking spaces would be dimensioned 12 feet in width (with an extra 5-feet of striping) and 18 feet in length. According to the site plan tabular data (sheet SP2 of 2), the proposed pervious Staff Report - Oceanside (NWSP 04-004) Memorandum No PZ 04-093 Page 4 Building and Site: area would total 0.73 acres or 32.3% of the site. The Landscape Quantities table indicates that 68.9% of the trees and 51.4% of the shrubs would be native. However, at the time of permitting, the landscape plan shall provide 50% native plant materials for the following categories: shade trees, palm trees, and shrubs / groundcover (see Exhibit "C" - Conditions of Approval). The site plan (sheet SP1 of 2) shows that a landscape buffer seven (7) feet - six (6) inches is proposed along the west (rear) property line. The landscape plan (sheet P-l) shows that a row of White Stopper hedges and Live Oak trees are proposed within this landscape buffer. The plans also show that three (3) Cabbage palm trees would be preserved within this buffer. The south (side) landscape buffer would be at least five (5) feet in width. This landscape buffer would contain a row of White Stopper hedges and a mix of Dahoon Holly, Live Oak, and Cabbage palm trees. The north (side) landscape buffer would be at least five (5) feet in width. This landscape buffer would contain Live Oak, and White Stopper hedges. The east landscape buffer would be at least 12 feet in width. This buffer would contain more landscape material than the other buffers because it is adjacent to Federal Highway. This buffer would contain the following: five (5) Wax Privet, two (2) Medjool Date palms, five (5) Pink Trumpet, six (6) Royal palms, two (2) Tibouchina, 99 Dwarf Bouganvillea, 10 Japanese Yew (installed as hedges), 15 Blue Plumbago, 188 Lantana, 31 Wax Leaf.Jasmine, and 119 Kings ManUe groundcover. The front of each unit would have Cabbage palms or Live Oak trees, White Stopper hedges, and Wax Leaf .]asmine groundcover. The air conditioners would be located on the ground to the rear of each unit and those units located on the sides would be screened with various hedge material. Live Oak trees would surround the clubhouse area. Staff recommends installing extra shrub material in front of the pool fence (see Exhibit "C"- Conditions of Approval). The applicant is requesting to rezone the property to the IPUD zoning district with a density of 19.9 dwelling units per acre. The maximum density allowed by IPUD zoning district (Special High Density ResidenUal land use classification) is 20 dwelling units per acre. The IPUD zoning district allows buildings to reach a maximum height of 45 feet, however, a lesser height could be imposed if compatibility with the adjacent properties would be jeopardy. The proposed three (3)-story fee-simple townhouses would be 36 feet - nine (9) inches, measured at the mean roof height. The peak of the roof would be 43 feet- four (4) inches in height. According to the landscape plan, a C.B.S. wall, six (6) feet In height would be placed around the entire property. Although not dimensioned, it appears that the new wall would be setback at least nine (9) feet from the east property line (facing Federal Highway). The 45 dwelling units are proposed within five (5) separate buildings on the 2.26- acre site. The plan proposes a mix of two (2) and three (3) bedroom units. Each of the five (5) buildings would contain varying unit types as well (Unit A, Unit B, or Unit C). According to the floor plans (sheets 12 and 13), the smallest unit would be 1,260 square feet in area and the largest unit would be 1,640 square feet. Staff Report - Oceanside (NWSP 04-004) Memorandum No PZ 04-093 Page 5 Design: The ]:PUD zoning district has no actual building setback requirements, however, the buildings are arranged In such a way that they would exceed the basic development standards. On the site plan tabular data, the minimum setbacks are shown as follows: front - 10 feet, rear - 10 feet, and side - five (5) feet. However, the building labeled "Building 3" is shown on the site plan with a side setback of 11, a difference of almost slx (6) feet. This is because the proposed setbacks are intended as minimum dimensions to be exceeded where possible. The buildings shall not encroach into the self-imposed minimum required setbacks. Staff concurs with this scenario and notes that the setback table shown on sheet SP2 of 2 regulates the project's minimum required setbacks. Each unit owner would be allowed to have a 30 square foot concrete patio in the rear yard. The concrete patios would be 10 feet in length by three (3) feet in depth, resulting In seven (7) to eight (8) foot distance between it and the south property line. The tabular data on sheet SP2 of 2 indicates that these rear patios would be setback eight (8) feet from the side .and rear property lines. "Building i and 2" are proposed along the front property line. The buildings would be setback 12 feet from this eastern property line. "Building 1" would be setback five (5) feet from the north property line. Similarly, "Building 2" would be setback five (5) feet from the south property line.

BACKGROUND Mr..lames W. Mahannah P.E. of Schnars Engineering Corporation and agent for 924 Venture L.L.C. is requesting a one (1)-year time extension, for the site plan approval (NWSP 02-024) originally granted on February 18, 2003. Traffic concurrency was also approved at this time, with a stated build-out date of 2003. The property, zoned Mixed-Use Low (MU-L), is currently a vacant, undeveloped parcel approximately Page 2 Memorandum No. PZ 04-097 0.52 acres in size. The intent of the project is to construct a three (3) story, 8,754 square foot office retail building (see Exhibit - "B'~. Tf this request for extension were approved, the expiration date of this site plan, including concurrency certification would be extended to February 18, 2005. On February 18, 2003, the City Commission granted site plan approval for the above-referenced project. This site plan approval was subject to 12 conditions of approval. All project conditions of approval pertaining to the site plan would still apply. According to Chapter 4, Section 5 of the Land Development Regulations, "the applicant shall have one (1) year to secure a building permit from the Development Department". It states further that the City Commission may extend the approval for one (1) year provided that the applicant has filed a request for a time extension prior to the expiraUon of the original approval. In this case, the applicant has met the requirement. The Planning & Zoning Division received the application for a site plan time extension on February 12, 200zt, prior to the expiration date. After Commission approval, the applicant submitted applications for building and for paving and drainage permits in May 2003, which were voided due to inactivity in November 2003 and .January 200~,, respectively. As stated in the request, the applicant has been delayed because of inability to locate suitable tenants required to secure financing. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends approval of this request for a one (1)-year time extension of the site plan approval (NWSP 02-02~,) with the condition that the applicant obtains traffic concurrency approval to extend the build-out date accordingly. This posiUve recommendation is based on the fact that no changes have been made to the Land Development Regulations that would impact this project since it was approved in February 2003. Approval of this request for site plan extension would extend the project's expiration date to February 18, 2005. All conditions of approval included in the Initial development order must still be saUsfactorily addressed during the building permit process; however, any conditions of approval recommended by the Board or required by the City Commission will be placed in Exhibit "C" - Conditions of Approval.

This is a one time set aside of funds for development. The CRA Grant application will be requesting funding for three vehicles over three years. The MPO Grant application identified six major areas, whiCh have to be addressed in the grant application: (1) Identification of Need of the Community, (2) Service Plan, (3) Implementation Plan, (4) Financial Plan, (5) Management Plan, and (6) Monitoring Plan. First, staff has to identify the need in the community and identify partners within the community who will participate, set up clearly defined goals and objectives for the trolley, summarize community demographics and business types, project ridership, number of trips, and the purpose of trolley. Second, staff has to define a service plan for the trolley. The CRA will be providing community circulators for the community, which is ADA accessible. We then have to define how we would provide the service, which staff recommends to be contracted out to a trolley company. Additionally, we have to define the style of vehicles as well as provide all of the specifications for each vehicle. We must develop the proposed route structure, days and hours of service, attractors along the proposed routes and the projected impact of these locations. 5209 Third, we have to decide on an implementation plan for the system with time frames and set up for the trolleys and routes as well as a system safety program plan for the program. Fourth, we have to develop a financial plan addressing cost per trip, cost per mile maintenance cost, and administrative cost. In addition, our plan must include an advertising plan. Fifth, we have to develop a management plan, assign responsibilities for daily, weekly, and monthly activities. We also have to develop the major components of the delivery of service, vehicle inspection plans, commendations and complaint forms as well as compliance for federal, state, and local agencies. Finally, we have to develop a monitoring plan defining responsibilities, complete with the forms necessary. Staff is finishing up the grant application, which is due May 25, 2004. This grant will in no way commit the CRA to the Trolley Program; however, the filing of the application does begin the process. If we are selected for funding, the CRA may choose to accept the grant or not. The grants are to be selected on July 27, 2004 by the MPC with implementation within one year. Staff will bring forth the complete Pilot Trolley Program in June. Note that if the CRA does not secure the Trolley System by either grant or on our own, the TCEA calls for a transit study to be completed by January 2005. Therefore, the CRA would need to start the study in lieu of the trolleys. The cost range of the study is projected by City Staff to be from $20,000 to 35,000. 5210 e4/30/2004 14:22 5616§91402 BURKHARDT BURKHARDT CONST.

Dated: 4/29/200¢ P~a ? el7 Event Wrap-Up Wheels Weekend 2004 April 2004 5218 Strategic Plan The Wheels Weekend 2004 was held as a two day event on April 3rd and 4th 2004. The event yielded an increase in the areas of vendor participation and sponsorship funding; however, attendance showed a decline. The event on the whole showed a small financial profit. Wheels Weekend 2004 was well received by the community and, with a few adjustments, this event should take its rightful place among the other annual signature events of the City. Wheels Weekend 2004 is an annual 2 day event, and this year was a partnership among the City, the Boynton Beach Chamber of Commerce and the CRA. The first day of the event, Saturday, April 3rd 2004 included a Big Truck Rally from 4:30 p.m. - 7:30 p.m on Ocean Avenue east of Seacrest Blvd, a 22 mile car and cycle cruise, skills contest at the Bethesda Health City parking lot and ended with a Fifties style dance for all ages at Federal Highway. and Ocean Avenue. Entertainment included 50's and 60's style classic Rock and Roll music and the attendees participated in a hula and dance contest and were awarded prizes for their participation. Children's entertainment elements included a bounce house and cartoon artist. Day two, April 4th 2004, was a Car Show complete with Classics, Hot Rods, Antiques, Mini Trucks, Sports & Specialty cars and a new section for Motorcycles. The Boynton Beach CRA, in conjunction with the City of Boynton Beach and the Boynton Beach Chamber of Commerce has made a commitment to creating events that will result in Boynton Beach becoming a destination location, promoting local businesses and increasing the social and cultural activity for local residences. The Specific goal was to continue to create, foster and grow events with multiple locations and multiple day scheduling, therefore encouraging repeat visits to the area and generate overnight stays, which has large economic impacts. In addition, the strategic alliance with the Chamber of Commerce was struck as a temporary solution to The Boynton Ocean District Association's inability to continue the partnership due to their status of reorganization. The Chamber's alliance was necessary to prevent interruption of the momentum of the now two year old event. Ramifications of BODA's late decision to focus on the realignment of their 5219 organization and not participate in the event were felt throughout the event; however, the event retained a strong foundation that can be built upon in future years. Steps taken to ensure success were similar to past years. Sponsorship funding was sought and a relationship with the internationally known Budweiser was created. Budweiser agreed to a stage sponsorship of $500. More notably for the event this is an opportunity to grow a stronger partnership with an intemational organization that has historically proven to be a significant partner to events worldwide. The Palm Beach Post was the print media partner for the event and provided in-kind services that had an equivalent dollar value of $10,000. The promotions campaign also included radio spots during the week of the event on Sunny 102.3, 10,000 inserts in Boynton Beach times to selected zip codes and ads in select auto industry magazines. The planning of the event took place jointly with the Chamber of Commerce and the City to ensure that logistically there were no conflicts. Volunteers were recruited and the final team was comprised of citizens, members of the Chamber and members of BODA. An invitation was mailed to our database of vendors that had participated in past events city wide. The invitation yielded a slight increase in the number of participants. It should be noted that the quality of vendors was an improvement over the past years and that approximately ten percent of the vendors had participated in previous years. By definition of improvement, the vendors that participated were industry professionals who work the event circuit. It could be considered a major factor that these vendors now see this event as an event that is worth a repeat visit. Finally, the entertainment was chosen based on a "one stop shop" approach. A production company was used to provide the entertainers, disk jockey and host. The packaging of the entertainment was very cost effective. The company also gave an additional discount for the opportunity to secure on-stage advertising. While demographically the live music appealed to the older crowd (Elvis & the Blues Brothers), the disk jockey played music and games that were geared to a younger audience. 522O Results The event attendance was estimated to be approximately one thousand, which was a fifty percent decrease from the previous year. The eady audience resulted partly from the migration of the crowds from the Big Truck Rally held at the opposite end of Ocean Avenue and the promotions campaign and was largely made up of families with one or more children. As the night advanced, the more mature audience arrived and this paralleled the arrival of the show cars. The participation of show cars, like the audience, showed a decrease from the previous year and can be contributed to the inclement weather, a decrease in the marketing to the car clubs and the late start of the promotions campaign. The event was a financial success in that it showed approximately a $1500 profit. The positive cash flow was a result of vendor fees, the Budweiser cash sponsorship and donations to the Cartoonist. Total expenses of $8,018 was leveraged by $9,510 cash in income which was a combination of the CRA's $7,500 donation, $500 Budweiser cash sponsorship, Scott Evans Production In-kind sponsorship, $360 in revenue from the bounce house, event t-shirts and the cartoonist. The event saw a ten percent increase in vendor participation. Despite the decline in attendance and the threat of bad weather, the vendors reported a successful evening and verbalized their willingness to support the event in the future. The vendors also communicated an opportunity for improvement. The multiple channels of communication for registration for the three events were somewhat unclear. While the event organizers felt it was better to keep the vendor registration for each event element separate, the vendors disagreed and felt the process should have been at the very least centralized. The level of sponsorship for this year's event was a significant improvement. to previous year's in-kind services and cash donations saw a 100% increase. Palm Beach Post continues to be a supporter of events city wide, the Corporation is a new relationship and one worth nurturing. Compared While the Budweiser 5221 Wheels Weekend 2004 was a success on all fronts. The committee was extremely pleased with the results and the group feels that the foremost goals of continuing the event's momentum and providing a source for economic viability were met resoundingly. The community has echoed the committee's feelings. The $7,500 invested by the CRA yielded over $100,000 in branding promotions via multimedia communication sources such as radio, multiple newspapers, community news and event web sites. A dollar value cannot be placed on the esteem of the community and the positive perception of the community that they have the support of the CRA. Staff Recommendations to the CRA Board VVhile the event continues to grow, the unstable elements that may curtail or limit the potential of the event is the quality of the entertainment the current budget allows and the attendance. VVhile the event committee is committed to the development of sponsorship relationships, additional funding for national recording acts is recommended. The quality of entertainment has been proven to be a direct driving force on the number of People who attend events. An increase in funding for better entertainment will increase the attendance which will result in a stronger possibility'for a revenue stream. That revenue stream could be a small gate fee which will assist in attaining the ultimate goal of the CRA which is to assist our partners to develop financially independent events. This event has proven to be a good partner for the CRA and continued partnership is recommended. Recommendations for Wheels Weekend 2005 · Streamline communication tools, · Designate a Centralized Information line (one Phone number to call for information), · Identify Partner earlier in the process, · Create a stronger marketing campaign geared toward the Car Clubs for day one activities, Start and end the event earlier. 5222 Event Wrap-Up HeritageFest February 2004' 5223 Strategic Plan 'Fhe Heri-tageFest 2004 was held as a month long celebration of .culture-during .the month of February. The event experienced significant growth in the areas of .attendance, vendor participation and sponsorship support. HedtageFest 2004 was well received by the community and with a few adjustments, this event should take its rightful place among the .other annual signature events of the City. The HeritageFest 2004 committee set some tangible goals and intangible goals for this year's event. Some tangible .goals were .in the areas of funds raised, the increase of sponsorship dollars, increase in the number of vendors and attendance. Some i-ntangible goals were the change in the image .of "Black event with Black supporters," the raising of the quality of the educational programs and the quality of the entertainment. The plan of action implemented to address the tangible goals was as follows: Step one was to identify partners such as the CRA, schools, .churches and the County and invite them to participate in the logistics of the event. The CRA contributed funds and staff to the event. The County provided .additional funding in the .form of-a reimbursable grant. The partnership with the schools provided a conduit for students to participate in the different educational elements and ticket sales. The Churches provided ¥olunteers but was also the site for public parking. In the partnership identification process, the relationship with the City was clarified. Each Commissioner .provided funding from their discretionary fund and in-kind services such as Police, EMT and staff from the necessary departments..Partnership funding .totaled $14,500 with over $10,000 in in- kind assistance. The contribution of $7,500 and staff time was maximized into significant branding for the agency as a sponsor the .CRA was mentioned approximately 30 times on two separate radio stations that has a reach from Martin County to Dade County. The visibility in the community was significant due to Staff's active role as co- designer and implementer of the event logistics. 5224 The second step in realizing the tangible goals was the identification of sponsors who served a .dual-purpose. The media organizations were .given .the opportunity to-be sponsors but to also be a partner/underwriter for the event. The Sun-Sentinel and Infinity Broadcasting answered the call with .resounding results. The Sun-Sentinel provided two cash scholarships totaling $2,000 and $29,000 in in-kind advertising. -Infinity Broadcasting .provided a total-of $70,.500-in in-kind -advertising. -Additional sponsors such as Viking Limousine and Holiday Inn Catalina provided in-kind assistance .that was critical in the implementation -of the transportation, .lodging and catering plans. The third and final step in actualizing the tangible goals was the increase in the number .of vendors and attendance. Over the-past few years, the requirements of insurance and more recently the home land secudty regulations has made being a food vendor extremely challenging. After .extensive discussions with the c[ty'.s .Risk .Management Officer, the committee decided to maximize and focus the marketing plan towards the .non food-vendors. For the first time in 21 years, an admittance fee was introduced; this was part of the strategy for funding _better entertainment which we hoped would result .in better attendance. VVhile the idea was met with some resistance, the final outcome was a positive one. Implementation of a strategic plan of action for the intangible goals was as usual more .difficult, however, the .committee dedicated themselves to first elevate the .quality of the educational elements of the event by attaching a scholarship and instituting more rigid criteria .for qualification and subsequently for .award of the previously mentioned scholarships. The second step in attaining these sets of goals was to change the image of the event from "Black event with Black Supporters." The committee embarked on this task by first inviting all the cultural organizations in the city to participate. The partnership with the 5225 School Distdct was crucial in ensuring that the students who participated in the Youth Recognition -Program, -the Art .and -Science Fair, and .the Coronation .represented a multitude of racial backgrounds and as a result, their families and fdends who came out to support -the students paralleled. The parade was -the biggest .indication -of the success of this. Participants of the parade ranged from the Police Department's Color Gu~ds .to -the -Dragon -Dancers -of .the Lee .Karate School. -Keeping -in mind -that Boynton Beach and its neighboring Cities are inhabited by a significantly large Caribbean population, the Counsel Generals-of .numerous Caribbean Islands were invited -to-meet their constituents. Finally, the events and entertainment chosen were chosen on their ability to cross over racial, age .and gender demographic lines. The Circus, the .carnival, the parade, Peaches and Herb, Tavares and International reggae recording artist Yellow Man were elements .that were successful in helping to achieve -the cultural-mix. 5226 Heritage Festival, Vision Statement: To develop a sense of community where children and adults of all ethnic backgrounds work, play and celebrate as one. Heritage Festival, Mission Statement: "To provide a celebration of Culture that motivates, empowers and informs the public of the ties that bind our community together through the enjoyment of the arts, education and pride in African-American accomplishments and heritage."

This represents a thirty percent increase-over .the past two years' attendance and it should also be noted that severe inclement weather on Friday, the 27th and Sunday, the 29th impeded the .attendance. The event was a financial success in that it showed a small profit margin. Total expenses $48,992.81 was leveraged by $59,683 in income which was a combination of residual funds from previous year's sponsorships and donations. The financial success was made possible by the in-kind .donations of City staff and by both the .print and media partners. Elements that contributed most to these financials was the sale of the books authored by Tommy Ford along with his appearance to autograph the book at the events, the Circus and the Carnival which came with no over head, vendor fees, the adult basketball competition and the entertainment. The event saw a 32 percent increase in vendor participation over the past 5 years. Vendors reported a tremendous amount of .pleasure .specifically with Saturday, the 28th where many reported selling out of all merchandise. The feedback was not all complimentary, however, the overwhelming response was the willingness to be.a part of the event in coming years. The Event was also successful as a result of the celebrity personalities who attended throughout the month.

For the first time in quite some time, the event .has broken even instead of showing a loss. The CRA funding and staff support was instrumental in achieving this milestone. Staff believes that this event with the aforementioned recommendations will become a signature event for the area. Continued CRA support will be necessary for the event to continue to make positive strides. Support i.n the Heart of Boynton will assist in rebuilding the reputation of the area and shed a more positive light. Continuous events in the area will not only aid in economically rebuilding the area but help to put in perspective the perceptions about the area. It should be noted that while the area has a negative reputation, there have not been incidents of violence or disturbances during the 21 years of existence of this event. Staff recommends continuous support of the event and an increase in funding. The increase in funding will assist in the event obtaining nationally recognized entertainers which will increase attendance and subsequently a sustained revenue stream. 5231 Event Wrap. Up Multi-Cultural Winter Carnival December 2003 5232 Strategic Plan The Multi-cultural Winter Carnival was a partnership between the CRA and Boynton Ocean District Association. The event was held on December 6th, 2003, and despite unseasonably cold weather, was well attended. The event concept was first discussed at the June 3, 2003 meeting and subsequently each development was discussed at monthly BODA Meetings at which time attending members voted on the elements as they were brought forth. On August 5th 2003, committee assignments were completed. The event experienced significant growth in the areas of attendance, vendor participation, and sponsorship support. The Multi-Cultural Winter carnival was well received by the community and with a few changes, this event has the potential to become an annual signature event for the holiday season. The planning sessions that were held over several months yielded the following goals. First, create an event that was multi-cultural in nature. It was pointed out by several members of the planning group that the holidays were celebrated by all cultures and in many different ways. As a result of this discussion, the Hanukkah and the Kwanzaa elements were added. The addition of the two elements was a resounding success. For the first time, an event held in the downtown was attended by a crowd that was noticeably diverse. The addition of the carnival rides was a direct result of discussion surrounding the subject of raising funds for the event. The event plan called for a charity element which would become a signifier of the downtown businesses reaching out to the people of the community. In order to achieve this goal, a funding mechanism was necessary. The carnival ddes became the ideal funding mechanism. The rides were self supporting, did not increase the overhead of the event and paid a royalty to the event. The charity element that became the vehicle for the BODA was the Adopt a Family Program. Four schools within the CRA boundaries were chosen to participate. The principals of each school was contacted and asked to select the family that would become the recipient of the donated items. The Members of BODA and CRA Staff worked to get donations from each business within the downtown area. Some businesses gave true donations 5233 and others matched the dollars that were spent. Other funding mechanisms that were implemented were sponsorship dollars, an Ice skating rink and vendor participation fees. Upon completion of the design of the event's concepts, committee chairs from the BODA organization were assigned to various aspects of the plan to implement. On the day of the event, a team of approximately 50 volunteers carded out logistics. Groups that participated were Omega PSI PHI (local Fraternity), the United Way, BODA and various other individuals from the community. The combination of Staff and community volunteers worked well and the results yielded was an event that ran well. An additional benefit was that the volunteers helped to promote the event and the audience reflected in some degree the pool of volunteers. 5234 Event Concept: The Boynton Beach Multi-Cultural Winter Camival is a partnership between the CRA and Boynton Ocean District Association. This holiday themed carnival celebrates the diversity in culture that exists in Boynton Beach and the neighboring cities. The elements of the event, specifically the Intemational Market Place, Talent Show Case and the Snow Volleyball Tournament, have been designed to appeal to families who celebrate Kwanzaa, Christmas and Hanukkah and increase attendance by attracting families and friends to support the competitors. Date: December 6th, 2003 2:00 PM - 11:00 PM Location: Ocean Avenue to Federal Highway, Boynton Beach Projected Attendance A) Number 8,000 -10,000 B) Demographics: Families of Boynton Beach and Neighboring Cities Event Goal: Raise funds for The Adopt a Family Charity Raise funds for the BODA (Boynton Ocean District Association) Elements of the Event: Talent Show Case Kids Zone Entertainment Hanukah Kwanzaa Window Decorations Contest Snow Volleyball Competition Ice Rink Toy Drive Adopt a Family Carnival Rides 5235 Results · Forty percent increase in attendance, · Fifty percent increase in vendor participation, · Three thousand dollars profit margin, · Fifty percent increase in volunteer participation. The marketing and promotional plan was instrumental in the forty percent increase in attendance. The newspaper partnership with the Palm Beach Post yielded $10,000 in in-kind services and a $900 expenditure with Infinity Broadcasting translated into over $5,000 in value. Combined with word of mouth promotion of the volunteers and the BODA membership and the Battler of the Band competition, the event was successful in increasing the attendance over the previous year. The event experienced a fifty percent increase in vendor participation despite the addition of a participation fee. Vendors expressed their appreciation for an event that was well planned and easy to navigate. Even though the attendance was impeded by the cold weather, the vendors appreciated the weather was not in direct control of the palling staff was therefore very forgiving. Each element of the event' was negotiated according to the CRA Purchasing Policy. The Expenditures for the event totaled $12,797 and revenues totaled $15,899 yielding a profit of $3,102 for BODA to build its resources. The elements that contributed most to the financial success of the event were: sponsorship dollars, vendor participation fees and the carnival rides. The logistics of the event were carried through by approximately 50 community volunteers along with BODA Members and Staff. The increase in the number of participants combined with the diversity was a win-win situation for the event. 5236 Recommendations · Change the date of the event to circumvent the cold temperatures experienced over the past two years, · Add carnival rides to 4th street in order to eliminate the disconnect of the two events, · Eliminate the toy drive and focus on .the Adopt a Family Campaign. Comments from the community included: change date to earlier to avoid the cold weather, increase hours of operation for the carnival, and provide better linkage between the carnival rides and the entertainment on Ocean Avenue. There was a positive cash flow at the event. The carnival ddes, vendor fees and sponsorship dollars generated a small profit. This is significant in that this is the first event to accomplish this. This is a positive indication that we are well on our way to achieving the goals set forth in the strategic plan. The partnership with BODA is a work in progress; however, staff continues to take on an educational role. The future of this event is a bright one; while the elements cannot be compared apples for apples with the event held in December 2002, the partnership in combination with more planning time yielded an event' with an increased number of vendors, attendance and revenue streams. 5237 Staff Recommendations to CRA Board The Board has been consistent in its direction to ensure that Staff and financial support is not a never-ending process but instead that Staff and financial support is used to grow the event to independence within a 3 to 5 year period. Review of the events over the past year indicates strong progress towards the Board's wishes, but there is much more work needed. The current pace at which the event is growing is a slow one. This is a direct result of the amount of funding that has been dedicated to the event. The current budget does not allow for attracting national entertainment and as a result the attendance, remains unstable. It will be difficult to achieve the goal of financial independence if this trend continues. The element of the carnival is an excellent example of creating a revenue stream however; there are limitations due to the geography of land and the number of rides that the area is capable of sustaining. The current economic climate has curtailed the sponsorship commitment levels. Event partners are increasingly committing more in-kind service and reducing their Cash commitment. What this means to an event is high dollar expenditures such as entertainment has to be reduced. Staff, therefore recommends that the Board considers an increase in the funding amount in order to improve the quality of the entertainment. 5238 VIII.

The foregoing instrument was acknowledged before me this __ day of April, 2004, by Matthew Allen, as Vice President of TRG-BOYNTON BEACH, INC., a Florida corporation, the sole general parmer of TRG-BOYNTON BEACH, LTD., a Florida limited partnership, on behalf of the corporation and the limited partnership.

My commission expires: My commission number is: Notary Public Name of Notary Printed: (NOTARY SEAL) # 1865971_v2 5251 6 EXHIBIT Meeting Minutes Community Redevelopment Agency Boynton Beach, Florida November 20, 2003 Chairman Finkelstein asked for a copy of the draft of the Affordable Spaces Incentive and Mr. Hutchinson will follow through on this. VIII. Old Business None IX. New Business A. Consideration of the Marina Parking Agreement Chairman Finkelstein noted that he had requested a change in the last sentence of the first paragraph of Paragraph 9 (Page 4033 of the agenda) that currently reads, "Two Georges may release the 35 spaces to TRG or its successor, and the parties' obligations under Paragraph 10 below shall cease as to such spaces." Chairman Finkelstein requested that the wording be changed to "Two Georges shall release the 35 spaces to TRG or its successor, for unrestricted public release." He pointed out that all the parties agreed to this. Mr. Hutchinson explained that for the CRA's $1 million investment, the City would receive a $100 million project with an 85% return on investment per year. Over a 30- year period the City would receive more than $30 million in tax revenues in addition to the money spent by people living and shopping in the area. Mr. Fisher pointed out that the City has already given out $750,000 on this project to previous developers. He would like the developer to agree to receive payment after the initial 5% of construction instead of at the permitting stage. This protects the City from handing out any additional dollars before any construction begins, even though these problems existed with the previous developers and not the current one. Chairman Finkelstein did not think that the $750,000 was ever paid and that it was around $160,000 because the timeframes were never met. Mr. Fisher said that he did bring this up with the developer and would like their comments. Chairman Finkelstein pointed out that the current language states "receiving a building permit," whereas the other developers never even pulled a permit. Mr. Fisher was in favor of the agreement, but he would like to see something done before any more money is paid out. Jerry Knight, Attorney for TRG Related said. that a draw scheduled has been worked out with staff to reflect their payments and they have to pay $250,000 next week when they apply for a permit. When they receive the permit, they have to pay the contractor. They had anticipated getting the money from the CRA as previously outlined. Chairman Fisher did not feel comfortable with the permit only stage and would like to see some building going on. Mr. Hutchinson suggested that the payment could take place at "the commencement of construction." Chairman Finkelstein suggested payment on "filing 5252 4223 ' 5 Meeting Minutes Community Redevelopment Agency Boynton Beach, Florida November 20, 2003 notice of commencement." Mr. Knight said that they would be agreeable to payment upon "the commencement of construction." At that point, TRG would receive 15%. Mr. Knight noted that the way the agreement reads, they would receive 15% when they pull the permit, and they would not receive the next 15% until they finish 30% of the project. Mr. Knight said that they would agree with the new language. Therefore the language would be changed to read that "TRG receiving a building permit for the garage and commencement of construction." Vice Chair Heavilin inquired if this language pertained to the 70 spaces or the whole garage and was informed it was the whole garage. Vice Chair Heavilin pointed out some typographical errors as follows: In section 13, Page 4035 of the agenda, in the sixth line from the top, it reads "...shall execute, and have TRG shall have..."This needs clarification. Attorney Payne pointed out that this is the City's Agreement and Mr. Knight requested that Vice Chair Heavilin speak to him later about any additional errors. Mr. Fenton was against the incentive and did not think that the CRA should become involved in a lawsuit among the developer, the City and the Two Georges. He pointed out that the developer should have discovered these problems prior to their purchasing the project. He felt that the money could be spent better elsewhere. Chairman Finkelstein pointed out that the City approved the site plan and that it was not only the developer that missed this problem. He pointed out that Two Georges would only be receiving 35 spaces and the 35 spaces that the CRA is contributing will go to the public as free parking. He did not think it was the developer's fault for not discovering the problem earlier. Further, if Two Georges at some point no longer uses their spaces, they would revert back to the public. Mr. Tillman said that this is a good opportunity to finally bring this to a conclusion and he approved of the plan. He confirmed that the $750,000 was never paid out because the prior developer did not fulfill his obligations. He wanted to move forward as soon as possible. Vice Chair Heavilin commended all the parties who have worked many hours to get the Marina on line. Ms. Hoyland would like to see what the elevations would look like after the changes because she had previous problems with the elevations before. Mr. Knight responded that the only elevation changes would be the additional two stories on the garage to accommodate the 70 parking spaces. Ms. Hoyland felt that the building was in need of more landscaping and she would like to see this done as a courtesy to the Board, even if it was not possible to change the agreement now. Attorney Payne asked Ms. Hoyland if she wanted the plan to come back for viewing or approval. Ms. Hoyland would like to have it come back for approval if possible, because she has major problems with the west elevation. Mr. Knight said that they cannot change the agreement between the City and Two Georges and it would have to go back 5253 6 4224 Meeting Minutes Community Redevelopment Agency Boynton Beach, Florida November 20, 2003 to everyone to review it again. He pointed out that the two additional stories would not account for a major change. Chairman Finkelstein did not think it was necessary for the plan to come back to this Board since it has to go through administrative approval with staff. Chairman Finkelstein recommended that as soon as staff receives the plan for administrative approval, they could provide copies to the Board. Quintus Greene, Development Director, informed Mr. Knight that the City would provide the CRA with a copy when the plan is submitted for minor site plan modification. Chairman Finkelstein stated for clarification purposes that the CRA is not paying the funds to the developer, but in fact is purchasing 70 garage spaces, 35 for the public and 35 for Two Georges. Chairman Finkelstein pointed out that Exhibit B to the Mediation Agreement listed "70 CRA Parking Spaces" and requested that the "CRA" be removed and the word "additional" substituted in its place. He also pointed out that there is no requirement for trolley or police in the agreement. Mr. Fenton requested that the $70,000 for the fee-in-lieu-of be deducted from the incentive. Mr. Hutchinson pointed out that the City would receive those funds and Chairman Finkelstein felt that this needed to be discussed in another venue. Motion Mr. Tillman moved that the Board approve the Marina Parking Agreement, as amended. Motion seconded by Mr. Fisher. Motion carried 6-1 (Mr. Fenton dissenting). B. Consideration of CRA Participation in a Temporary Month-to-Month Parking Lot Rental with BODA. Agreement Cost for the Budget Year is $1,8oo Mr. Hutchinson pointed out that there is a need for additional parking and BODA has been working on obtaining a parking lot for employees and patrons at the First Financial Plaza. Ten business members of BODA will be underwriting the $1,500 per month for the parking spaces and the Banana Boat will be supplying the liability insurance and clean up of the lot. Staff is asking for the CRA to participate in the amount of $150 per month. Chairman Finkelstein recommended going with a three-month trial that is referred to in the Memorandum of Lease on page 4084 of the agenda packet. He would also want the CRA' to be named as an additional insured on the insurance policy. Chairman Finkelstein pointed out that the CRA had agreed to convert the Relax inn land into temporary parking. Mr. Hutchinson stated that they are going through the permit process on this. Vice Chair Heavilin inquired what would happen if any of these businesses failed and who would pick up the slack. Mr. Hutchinson noted that participants would have to pay first and last months' rent when they opt in. She also inquired about the extra security that would be furnished by the Banana Boat. Mr, Hutchinson responded that their employees would be walking and policing the area. Vice Chair Heavilin was concerned 5254 7 4225 ~ ~ EXHIB " , - ~- ~IT D" FUNDING AGR~E/VIENT This Funding Agreement ("Agreement") is made and entered into this'~j~day of _~,~a~__, 2003, by and between TRG BOYNTO1N BEACit, LTD., a Flor/da limited partnership ("TRG"), and the BOYNTON BEAC~ COM]VIUNITY REDEVELOP1VIE1NT AGENCY, a public agency created pursuant to Chapter 163, Part LII, Florida Statutes ("CRA").

Attorneys at Law Colonial Center 1200 S. Federal Highway · Suite 1-201 · Boynton Beach, Florida 33435 Telephone (561) 736-2888 Facsimile (561) 736-9612 PROJECT SUMMARY Colonial Center Inc. is a Commercial Condominium Association with its complex consisting of several buildings on the waterfront, near the intra-coastal waterway and located just north of Woolbright Road on Federal Highway. Our owners are a diverse group of local professionals and business people, including area doctors, lawyers, accountants, designers, etc. Our Center's facade has a beautiful colonial styled Carribean look to it with working shutters and much beautiful indigenous landscaping. However, the years have taken its toll on our decorative facade lighting, which no longer shows offthe beauty of our architecture and heritage. We have been planning a project which will cndighten our beautiful facade with seven new exterior lamps, including five (5) "shoebox" types and two (2) decorative "luminaires" in front. We invited bids from about a half-dozen local contractors with only three actually submitting bids. We voted unanimously to go with bids from Lectra Lighting, because not only was it the lowest bid but was also the most specific and detailed. Although we have the funds for the project now in our reserves, we are also in the process of specially assessing ourselves for an extra $30,000.00. We are seeking one-half of this cost from the C.KA.. If successful, we will have funds lef~ over to reallocate more for landscaping and other items relating to our exterior appearance. ALLEN WM.

As a condominium association in Boynton's commercial district, our association is comprised of numerous businesses and professional practices including; Doctors, Lawyers, Accountants, Dentists, P.~c~ologists, etc.,-employing-many cit~y--_r~-sidents. Many a~ owner, such as myself, also live in our city. As a commercial association we always strive to maintain a high standard of appearance. Now, our exterior lighting is in need of replacement and a new look. The lighting system our board chose with our members approval include a very beautiful aesthetic appearance for those units that are most visible. The less visible lighting units will provide excellent facade lighting to help show off our centers beautiful appearance at night, in addition to providing security for our business owners, employees and patrons. Our Declaration of Condominium is a matter of public records filed in the Official Records of Palm Beach County. Therefore, in the interest of preserving trees I have not made multiple copies of this massive document. Instead I have included one copy in our master application and will make other's available upon request. 5276 BOYNTON BEACH COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY March 11, 2004 Page: two As required in your project information guidelines, we are including the following documentation in each of the eight (8) packages of application and attachments; Written Specifications for each of the lighting units with pictures. 2. Site Plan. Third Party cost estimate/bids from three (3) different licensed electrical contractors. o Our estimated time line is six (6) months, or less, from time of Grant approval, optimally several months. o Evidence of our financial ability to pay for our project including: A copy of our Balance Sheet and Annual Budget demonstrating our fiscal integrity; our reserves and funds currently on deposit; our Resolution imposing a special assessment. Eleven (11) "before" photographs of public view of our commercial condominium. o Material specifications are included in our written specification, above listed as item #1. o Signage and color information is presumably inapplicable. Glass lights are of course transparent and translucent, and all metal will be painted black, or natural metal color. We hope the C.R.A. will be able to help our condominium association. If the grant is approved it would free up funds toward other outdoor projects, such as replanting our landscaping. Thank you for your anticipated cooperation. Yours ~,~ Allen Wm.

Price for site Lighting improvement as follows; 1) Provide and install (5) new direct burial fiberglass poles, 20' mounting height, with (5) 400w. metal halide vertical lamp fixtures. __ 2) Pro__vide and-install (2)-new direct burial decorative fiberglass poles at_entry, ~ mounting height, with (2) 175w. metal halide "AcZ--m" style period fixtures. 3) Provide and install (3) 100w. metal halide louvered bolla_rd fixtures at dock area. 4) Price includes trenching, conduit, and wire to connect new poles and bollards to existing lighting circuits. 5) Price includes wind load calculations. 6) Price includes freight. 7) Price includes "Point by Point" drawings. 8) Price does not include permit fees. 9) Price does not include demolition or repair of existing lighting system not directly associated with installation of new equipment. PRICE $ 23,784.21 Bill, I would like to provide an explanation of the above quotation regarding fixture clxoices and locations. The 400w. metal halide fixtures incorporate a vertical lamp design for improved light output along with a domed top / flat lens design which prevents the tip of the lamp from causing unwanted glare. This allows the l]xture to be rated as "Dark Sky Compliant". This, along with keeping the three poles on the north side of the property close to the buildings, will prevent complaints from the adjacent residential area. Keeping with the same idea, the bo[lards along the dock area will provide adequate security and walkway lighting without producing unwanted glare along the canal. The two decorative fixtures at the entrance will illuminate the driveway and also provide an attractive appearance. The pole heights were chosen to ensure that the fixtures would remain below (1) 5287 the canopy level of the trees. I visited the site to determine the extent of viable circuits at the required locations and found that although some of the conduit and c/rcuitry is useable, much of the wiring has fallen into a state of disrepair. Broken conduits, junction boxes, and receptacles can present a safety hazard if not repaired or removed. The ex/sting lighting seems to be non-functional and badly damaged. These issues should be addressed regardless of any improvements in site lighting. The price above is based on reusing the existing conduit and to a certain extent, the wiring within. The existing conduit, being PVC, should allow the replacement of the conductors, avoiding the need to cut pavement. Please call [fyou have any questions, or [fi can be of farther assistance.

April 30, 2004 Review Services Order for The Urban Group has received and forwarded to Staff four quotes ranging between $13,800 and $34,500. These quotes reflect "a not-to-exceed-fee" for the review of appraisals in MLK Phase I CRA Acquisition Task. This review process is part of HUD's Uniform Relocation Act requirement. While all of the property owners are entitled to an appraisal and an appraisal review under the Uniform Relocation Act, they also have the right to waive the process in which case the appraisal review fee would not be incurred by the CRA. Staff brings forth this item for Board consideration because the lowest bid is $13,800 and exceeds both the CRA Director's purchasing limit under the CRA Purchasing Policy and the amount granted by the CRA Board to Mr. Dale Sugerman (The City's coordinator for the CRA acquisitions). The task order has been attached for your review. This element must be in place to move forward with acquisitions. 53O6 April 27, 2004 Mr. Dale S.
