the Fire and EMT staff, especially noting the training and education they are required to

Commissioner Ferguson read some recent articles in the newspapers regarding the
Mayors of Boca Raton and Delray Beach providing their support for the Mecca Farms
site to be the location for the Scripps Research facilities. He also would like this
Commission to add their support by Resolution of the Mecca Farms site.
Mayor Taylor, as well as most of the South County Mayors, were present to endorse
and recommend to the Palm Beach County Commission that the Mecca site be selected
as the Scripps location. Commissioner Ferguson requested that this Board unanimously
support the Resolution. Commissioner Ensler felt Scripps was very important for the
future of the County.
Vice Mayor McCray wanted to make certain that the County Commissioners had all the
necessary information to make the site selection before endorsing a particular site.
However, if the Commission wanted to support the Scripps site, he was prepared to do
so. Commissioner McKoy also felt Scripps was important for the County, as well as the
State, noting that there was a great deal of controversy concerning the site of the
project. However, he was prepared to endorse a Resolution to support the Mecca site.
Mayor Taylor reported that the County Commission met today to discuss the Scripps
site. On February 22nd, the Commission will select an alternate site in the event Mecca
is not available. The public will be able to provide input at that time.
Vice Mayor McCray noted that he spoke at length with Mr. Bressner on February 7th

NEW Congress Middle School presentation of the School Board of
Palm Beach County by Angela Usher, Planner and Helen Lavalley,
Planner
Ms. Angela Usher from the School District reported that construction of the new
Congress Middle School would begin in 2005 with a completion date for August 2007.
Ms. Usher introduced Ms. Lavalley, the Planning Manager of the project, and other
members of her party.
Ms. Lavalley presented a brief background of the comprehensive modernization of
Congress Middle School. This equates to replacement of the facility on site. The original
school was built in 1976 and sits on approximately 30 acres. The building and grounds
will be updated to current standards. Congress Middle School is a magnate school for
pre-med and engineering. The equipment for these students will be state-of-the-art.
School capacity is 1,300 students with no proposed increase.
Ms. Lavalley noted that the project has two constraints. The first one is that there are
existing uses on site and the second constraint is that the students would remain on site
during construction. Ms. Lavalley commended Commissioner Ensler for his assistance
and input and the City staff for their help as well. Ms. Lavalley introduced the architects
for the project that presented a PowerPoint presentation of the New Congress Middle
School.
Some of the salient points of the project were:
· Uses on site will be the school, maintenance yard and lTV.
· The new school will be located in the rear portion of the site that will include a
scenic retention lake, and a long entry drive to the new school.
· The School will consist of two separate buildings. One building would be for
academics and the second would be an assembly building.
· Amenities include basketball courts, tennis courts, and track.
· The maintenance yard has been compressed and will be shielded with more
landscaping.
· A new collector road will be added at the south end of the site.
· The access road will have its own signal to facilitate access.
· There will be a new landscape buffer around the front of the school with park-
type fencing.
· The tower has been relocated.
· The basketball courts have been relocated.
· The building will be phased and the maintenance yard will be cleaned up.
· It will take approximately 18 months to build the new school.
· The old building will be torn down and replaced with the field amenities.
· Security and safety features would be built into the school.

· The assembly building will be located across the courtyard. Included in this
building are the locker rooms and gymnasium.
· The architecture is Mediterranean with barrel tile detailing.
Vice Mayor McCray inquired about the trailers located on Congress Avenue. The
architect stated that they have all been sold and there will be no more trailers.
Mayor Taylor asked about the portables on site and was informed that those would be
removed as well. Mayor Taylor noted he was Mayor when the School Board requested
the City to allow them to put up the antenna on the pole and in exchange for this, the
School Board stated that they would completely hide the yard and trailers. However,
none of the promises made by the School Board were kept. Mayor Taylor asked what
the status of the maintenance yard would be.
Commissioner Ensler responded that the maintenance site would be totally removed to
another site. David Swan, Senior Project Administrator for the School District, stated
that the property has already been cleaned. They are looking for another location to
relocate the maintenance yard. Until such time, a portion of a permanent building will
remain until this property can be located. Mr. Swan also noted landscaping would shield
the maintenance yard and staff is assisting them in locating a site for the maintenance
yard.
Commissioner Ensler commended the School District and City staff in working together
to bring this project to fruition. He personally thanked Mr. Swan, who was instrumental
in bringing such a high caliber school to the City. Commissioner Ensler pointed out that
the project also included two ball fields, track, basketball courts, and tennis courts that
will be available to the City. Discussions are taking place if a soccer field could also be
introduced.
IV. PUBLIC AUDIENCE:
INDIVIDUAL SPEAKERS WILL BE LIMITED TO 3-MINUTE PRESENTATIONS
(at the discretion of the Chair, this 3-minute allowance may need to be
adjusted depending on the level of business coming before the City
Commission)
Herb Suss, 1711 Wood Fern Drive, asked if the Planning and Development Board
would be involved with the design of the school and Commissioner Ensler stated that
the Planning and Zoning staff were involved.
Mr. Suss asked about the date for the Advisory Board Dinner and was informed that the
dinner is scheduled for a date in April.
Mr. Suss reported that a Valentine Day celebration took place yesterday at the City's
Golf Course that was attended by 36 couples. Everyone had a great time and Mr. Suss
complimented Ms. DeFosse for her efforts in putting together this event.

Mr. Suss announced on Saturday at the Rolling Green Municipal Complex on 14th
Street a CERT drill would take place at 9:00 a.m. Everyone was invited to attend and
noted that a new class will begin in March.
Mr. Suss asked about the status of the FP&L light towers and inquired about the police
investigation that he read about in the newspaper. Lastly, Mr. Suss reported that he
received a telephone call on Sunday from Mr. Bressner who informed him that he is
doing well.
Mayor Taylor informed Mr. Suss they cannot respond to the Police investigation since
this is an ongoing investigation. Regarding FP&L, Mayor Taylor met with
representatives two weeks ago regarding the City's concerns. Mayor Taylor received
positive information and anticipated that the public will be pleased with the results.
Barry Volkman is the music director of a newly formed Boynton Regional Symphony
Omhestra. The first rehearsal was held Thursday night at Boynton Beach Community
High School and 20 people of all ages attended the rehearsal. He would like to have
more players as well as people to sit on their Board of Directors to become more
established in the community. Mr. Volkman thanked Commissioner Ensler, Mr.
Bressner and Mr. Majors for their assistance in securing the band room at the Boynton
Beach High School for their rehearsals. Anyone who wanted to participate in the
symphony or to help in anyway should contact Mr. Volkman at 304-3937.
Gertrude Sullivan, 201 NE 6th Avenue, Boynton Beach, commended Vice Mayor
McCray for stating he wanted to get back together in order to stop the controversy
taking place in the City. Ms. Sullivan was concerned about the property in her
neighborhood being sold to developers and asked where the families being displaced
could find new homes. Lastly, Ms. Sullivan asked if Wilson Center was still on course.
Mayor Taylor informed Ms. Sullivan that the Wilson Center is still on course. With regard
to people being displaced, he pointed out the City has many programs to assist in this
area.
Sherri Johnson, Community Caring Center, 145 NE 4th Avenue, Boynton Beach,
serves on the Palm Beach County United Way Long Term Recovery Committee being
organized to assist hurricane victims. They will be making a presentation to the County
at the end of March regarding grant funds that will be available for homeowners to make
repairs to their homes. In order to determine those families that need assistance, the
Lutheran Disaster Services Needs Assessment Form must be completed. Ms. Johnson
recommended that people complete this form in advance so when the funds are
available, they would be considered first.
Ms. Johnson announced that a nutrition education program at the Treasure Chest
Learning Center is starting up. On Thursday morning at the Community Garden the
children would be participating in their first project, which is planting. They will also be
going on a field trip to learn about farming and produce.

Steve Homrich, 690 NE 15th Place, a member of INCA, reported on action that took
place at their monthly meeting last night. INCA is in favor of preserving the Old High
School. They are looking at ways to find a process for better compatibility for future
developments. Dan DeCarlo, the City's Neighborhood Specialist, was their guest
speaker, and two issues were discussed. INCA is looking to link their Web site to the
City's Web site. They would like to work with the City in getting Federal Highway
cleaned up and to address the poor condition of the CVS Pharmacy benches.
The public audience was closed.
Vice Mayor McCray inquired about the trailer located at the Civic Center. Mr. Majors
stated that this trailer belonged to the construction company that would be doing the

(LIQUID CAUSTIC SODA), Bid #014-2821-05/CJD, to ALLIED
UNIVERSAL CORPORATION of Miami, Florida, with an annual
estimated expenditure of $166,000 for the Utilities Department
Commissioner Ensler noted there were three bids, one of which was a minority firm.
Commissioner Ensler would like the City to award more bids to minority firms and
11
Meeting Minutes
Regular City Commission Meeting
Boynton Beach, Florida
February15, 2005
questioned if the bid could be split between the two firms that bid the lowest, or in the
alternative to go out for new bids.
Nem Gomez, Interim Utility Director, was prepared to revisit this item if the Commission
wanted to do so. He was not involved in the details of the selection. Commissioner
Ensler inquired if it was important that this bid be approved tonight. Mr. Gomez would
have to check with staff on this.
Vice Mayor McCray inquired if it was the City's practice to split bids. Mr. Mummert
responded that it has not been the City's practice to split bids, but he did not think
splitting bids was prohibited. Mr. Mummert pointed out that this particular bid has always
been awarded in the aggregate to the firm with the lowest aggregate total. Mayor
Taylor did not think this type of bid could be split, which Mr. Gomez confirmed was
correct.
Mayor Taylor acknowledged the issues brought up by Commissioner Ensler and now
that staff is aware of how they would like the bids selected, he felt they should approve
the bid.
Commissioner Ensler inquired if the bids could be worded that would give the City an
option to award a bid separately. Attorney Cherof stated that this could be done, but the
Commission should keep in mind that this could affect the amount of the bids.
Commissioner Ensler would encourage all departments to award more minority bids.
Mr. Mummed spoke to the Purchasing staff and conveyed the Commission's wishes.
Commissioner McKoy felt that the City needed to be more aggressive in awarding
minority bids and recalled that these same discussions have taken place many times.
He also requested that staff be more cognizant to awarding more bids to minorities.
Motion
Commissioner Ensler moved for approval. Motion seconded by Commissioner
Ferguson and unanimously carried.
Award the "CLASSIFICATION & COMPENSATION STUDY", RFP
#015-1610-05/CJD to MGT OF AMERICA of Tallahassee, Florida,
with an estimated expenditure of $66,000 (PROPOSED
RESOLUTION NO. R05-020)
Vice Mayor McCray pulled this item at the request of a citizen who wanted to address
this item.
Brian Edwards 629 NE 9th Avenue, Boynton Beach was in favor of awarding the RFP
and felt this would be a good time to move forward with this item and the firm being
recommended appeared qualified to do the work. Mr. Edwards noted that the study
appeared to be extensive and he questioned if it could be completed between now and
June. He also thought the cost was quite high considering the amount of work that was
12
Meeting Minutes
Regular City Commission Meeting
Boynton Beach, Florida
February 15, 2005
to be performed. It also appeared at the end of the study, the City would have the option
to purchase a maintenance plan for the job evaluation tool software. The backup also
noted that MGT of America has the ability to provide staff with a four-year
implementation plan. Mr. Edwards felt this type of wording meant that the City would
have to bear additional unknown costs at the end of the study for the purchase of the
software beyond the original costs of $66,000. Mr. Edwards also inquired how this
would benefit the City's hiring process.
Amy Brown, from MGT of America, explained that the maintenance plan for the job
evaluation tool is very easy to use once staff is trained and merely provides basic
assistance and maintenance of the tool. The cost for this is much less than the contract
itself. Also Ms. Brown pointed out that it is at the City's discretion whether they want to
purchase the maintenance tool or not.
Motion
Vice Mayor McCray moved to award the contract. Motion seconded by Commissioner
McKoy and unanimously carried.
Proposed Resolution No. R05-012 Re: Approving
and adopting grant funding policies (TABLED TO FEBRUARY 15,
2005)
Motion
Vice Mayor McCray moved to remove the item from the table. Motion seconded by
Commissioner Ferguson and unanimously carried.
Vice Mayor McCray pulled this item at the request of a citizen.
Sherri Johnson, of the Community Caring Center, had several questions regarding
the City's grant funding process and provided the Clerk with her comments, which are
on file in the City Clerk's Office. Ms. Johnson did not think the Resolution was clear as
to whether this applied only to the CDBG funding or if the City gave out other kinds of
grants. However, she pointed out, that the comments she provided were made as if the
Resolution only applied to CDBG funding.
Ms. Johnson recommended adding language to "Access to Funding" under "General
Policies" to be tied to the City's priorities contained in the Comprehensive Plan. She
also felt the priorities should be rated, high, medium or Iow to address the needs in the
City.
Secondly, Ms. Johnson recommended that the application be in other languages
besides English, but when the actual grants are submitted they would be in English.
Before scoring the applications, they should be reviewed for completeness and scoring
of the applications should be done on completeness. She did not think that additional
time should be given applicants that provide missing documentation.

Meeting Minutes
Regular City Commission Meeting
Boynton Beach, Florida
February 15, 2005
Ms. Johnson recommended the City establish an advisory board to assist with
evaluating grant applications. Ms. Johnson brought forth many other recommendations
regarding the grant process.
Mayor Taylor suggested that staff review Ms. Johnson's recommendations, but he
would like to move the item forward. After staff reviews Ms. Johnson's
recommendations, if they feel there is a need for additional amendments to the
Resolution, they could bring them back to the Commission.
Vice Mayor McCray had concerns about the Resolution and the issues Ms. Johnson
raised. He also had some of his own questions and felt that the Resolution needed
clarification on several points. He questioned if this only applied to the CDBG program
or were there other grant programs in the City. Vice Mayor McCray inquired what the
difference was between a 'facilitator" and "gatekeeper" on page 4. He also noted that
the Resolution was not clear on whether the policies applied to all grants or specifically
to the CDBG program. Vice Mayor McCray had other comments. Mayor Taylor
recommended tabling the item to allow staff to re-work the Resolution and bring it back.
Motion
Vice Mayor McCray moved to re-table. Motion seconded by Commissioner Ferguson
and unanimously carried.
Mayor Taylor recommended setting up a Commission workshop with the committee and
then bringing it back to the Commission.
Proposed Resolution No. R05-022 Re: Authorizing
the execution of a Task Order with Kimley-Horn and Associates,
Inc. for final design and construction services for the Wilson Center
Building, pool and park project in the not-to-exceed amount of
$519,400
Commissioner Ensler inquired what the costs would be for a spray pool and asked Mr.
Majors to address this.
Wally Majors, Recreation and Parks Directors, reported that he contacted the County
and did some further research. As a result, he has determined that a spray ground
would cost between $300,000 to $350,000. The costs for an interactive splash pool
would cost $1.1 million.
Commissioner Ensler noted the funds for a spray ground have not been budgeted, but if
possible, when Kimley-Horn does the final design, he would like the infrastructure for
this facility included that would include, water, drainage, electricity, etc.

Motion
Commissioner Ensler moved for approval. Motion seconded by Commissioner
Ferguson and unanimously carried.
Proposed Resolution No. R05-023 Re: Approving
concept plans for the Intracoastal Park Clubhouse as prepared by
CH2MhilI, providing direction to staff regarding the desired location
of the clubhouse on the site and authorizing Task Order No. 05-05-
01 to CH2Mhill in the lump sum, and not-to-exceed amount of
$181,255 for final architectural design and construction oversight
services for the Intracoastal Park Clubhouse
Vice Mayor McCray noted that the Commission must approve the location for the new
clubhouse. Mayor Taylor stated that two options were provided; one was to place the
clubhouse along Federal Highway and the second option was to place it along the
Intracoastal. Vice Mayor McCray felt it was important to locate the clubhouse along the
water.
Mr. Majors also felt the water was the best location for the clubhouse and pointed out
how it would provide a unique attraction for the City.
Motion
Vice Mayor McCray moved for approval with the location of the clubhouse along the
water. Motion seconded by Commissioner Ferguson.
Commissioner McKoy pointed out the western portion of the Park along Federal
Highway is used for parking. He felt that putting the clubhouse at the Intracoastal would
be advantageous in order to keep the current parking area.

Seaview Park Club (NWSP 04-014) - 1620 North Federal Highway (east
side of North Federal Highway, approximately 1,000 feet north of the
Boynton C-16 Canal - Request for new site plan approval for the
construction of 69 condominium units on 3.756-acres in the IPUD zoning
district (RETURNED TO COMMISSION FOR RECONSlDERATION)
Attorney Cherof pointed out that the Commission at their last meeting heard these items
and they are now being returned to the Commission for reconsideration as the result of
a motion to do so. The Commission is being asked to approve additional conditions to
the site plan approval process. Commissioner Ferguson inquired if a motion for
reconsideration was necessary, and Attorney Cherof stated a motion was not
necessary. Attorney Cherof recommended the three items be heard separately.
Attorney Morell noted on January 25, 2005 they submitted a letter requesting a revised
amendment to condition #48 and three additional conditions. The letter was considered
a motion for reconsideration at the February 1, 2005 meeting and the Commission
voted to reconsider. The parties continued to meet and on February 11, 2005, Attorney
Morell forwarded a letter to Mike Rumpf, the Planning and Zoning Director, reporting
progress in the talks. His clients reviewed Mr. Weiner's letter and are in complete
agreement with that letter. Therefore, based upon this, they are now withdrawing their
request for three new additional conditions, provided that the revisions to condition #48
and other principles set out in Mr. Weiner's letter be included.
As a result, City staff drafted additional conditions that were E-mailed to him today and
they are acceptable. Attorney Morell requested that staff present those
recommendations. If the Commission, along with the applicant agreed to those
recommendations, they would consider the matter resolved.
Attorney Michael Weiner, for the applicant, acknowledged that they received staff's
recommendations and agreed to the additional conditions proposed by staff. Mr.
Hudson distributed the additional conditions referred to by Attorney Morell, a copy of
which is on file in the Office of the City Clerk.

Meeting Minutes
Regular City Commission Meeting
Boynton Beach, Florida
February15, 2005
Mike Rumpf, Planning and Zoning Director, stated the conditions being presented are a
consolidation of comments generated by all parties and have been reviewed thoroughly
by staff, especially the comments regarding buffer landscaping changes. Mr. Rumpf
reviewed the additional conditions as follows:
· Comment #56 is comment #48 that limits the project to three stories and includes
what would or would not be allowed on the roofs.
· Comment #57 is the elimination of comment #49 dealing with the rooftop patio
area and that comment is no longer necessary.
· Comment #58 deals with the conversion of tree species from Laurel Oaks to Live
Oaks.
· Comment #59 is an amendment to comment #52 and includes other tree options.
· Comment #60 is the elimination of comment #53. This comment originally
required that the trees not be "hurricane cut."
· Comment #61 is an amendment to comment #54 that would allow the south
buffer to be designed as agreed upon by all parties and a greater range in tree
height. This is included in the conditions as Drawing #L7.
· Comment #62 is new and deals with the changes in the elevations of the
buildings. In addition, the comment requires notification to INCA and a
representative for the homeowners.
· Comment #63 addresses the dock facilities.
· Comment $#64 addresses lighting.
· Drawing Pla is a photometric plan.
Steve Homrich, 690 NE 15th Place, representing INCA, reported they are in agreement
with all the conditions, but requested clarification on Condition #56 dealing with the
height. When this was originally discussed, the intent was the height would be no higher
than Manatee Bay to the north and does this still apply to the mid-point of the roof or is
Manatee Bay 38' to the top of the building? Mr. Rumpf was not certain on this, but
thought it was to the peak. If this was the case, Mr. Homrich inquired if the project could
go higher and Mr. Rumpf stated that it would depend upon the final design of the roof,
and it could be a little bit higher.
Commissioner Ferguson pointed out the Commission was just furnished with this
information and he has repeatedly requested that information be provided in a timely
manner.
Motion
Commissioner Ferguson moved for approval. Motion seconded by Commissioner
McKoy.
For clarification, Attorney Cherof noted that this motion approved the site plan with the
conditions of approval that have been handed out as Exhibit C.

TABLED ON 01/18/05
Attorney Cherof read Proposed Ordinance No. 04-045 by title only.
Mayor Taylor opened the public hearing.
Kathy Cook, 1074 NW 11th Street, would like to know why this project is good for the
residents of the City. Ms. Cook invited the Commission to come live in her
neighborhood to see what it is like. She pointed out the trees from the first project at
Gateway have already been cut down. As a result, the noise from the traffic and heavy
construction equipment has intensified and it is very noisy. With the new zoning, they
are going to lose all the wildlife that live in the fields. Ms. Cook also had concerns about
flooding when the site is developed.
Ms. Cook noted there is so much traffic now on Old Boynton Road that it takes her
several minutes to exit from her community onto that Road. As a result of this long wait,
motorists exit the street too fast. She is afraid that when the street is widened that
vehicles would have to wait even longer to exit and that could result in crashes into the
homes across the street.
Ms. Cook has an office on Gateway Boulevard and her house is only one mile from her
office, yet it takes her 18 minutes to get home in the evening. While the City may be
increasing revenues, they are decreasing the quality of human lives. Ms. Cook pointed
out that they have been residents of the City for many years and have paid their taxes
and deserve some consideration. The area is being increased to such a degree that no
one can live in the homes anymore.
Since no one else wished to speak, the public hearing was closed.
Dick Hudson, Senior Planner, noted since the first reading of the Ordinance several
months ago, there have been some minor changes to the acreage. The project was
22
Meeting Minutes
Regular City Commission Meeting
Boynton Beach, Florida
Februan/15, 2005
originally 81.81 acres and has now increased to 82.08 acres. When the staff report was
prepared, they had not heard from County Engineering. However, the County has
provided their comments and stated that the project does meet the traffic performance
standards ordinance with the improvements outlined in the staff report.
DCA had an objection to the amendment and the one for Boynton Town Center. DCA
stated that it was difficult to determine the exact amount cf types of uses that would be
on the property. Therefore, DCA has requested a note be included on the Future Land
Use Map for both parcels that would state:
"This property is restricted to a maximum of 1,120 high-density residential
units, 10,000 square feet of office/commercial use and 149,000 square
feet of local, retail commercial use."
This note will be added to the bottom of the Future Land Use Map.
Commissioner Ensler referred to staff's comment regarding the negative aspect of the
proposed master plan that lacks private and public park space that could take
advantage of the lake area. Staff opined, "A passive area located between the spine
road and the lake could become a special focal point and gathering place for a great
number of people and a true asset to the development. This would also fulfill the SMU
requirements." Commissioner Ensler requested the applicant address staff's comments.
Jim Comparato, Compson Associates, responded that the location of the parkland
was discussed at length with staff. They would have liked to have more parkland around
the lake, but in trying to keep with the overall feeling regarding the size of the lake and
access for the public from a public street, they moved the park access to Old Boynton
Road.
Commissioner Ensler noted there were two kinds of parkland. The first one was
dedicated parkland and the other is open space as required by the SMU Ordinance. Mr.
Comparato stated 1.5 acres of land would be dedicated to the City as parkland, and
there is an additional 3~,~ acres of parkland directly adjacent to the 1.5 acres that would
make the park 5 acres in total.
Mr. Hudson added the requirement for 15Y2 acres of useable open space still must be
addressed. Mr. Hudson pointed out it did not have to be in parkland, but could be open
plazas and gathering spaces. The applicant is providing a 40' wide greenway along the
canal that would count towards the useable open space.
Motion
Commissioner Ferguson moved to approve Proposed Ordinance No. 04-045. Motion
seconded by Mr. Ensler. City Clerk Prainito called the roll and the motion carried 5-0.

Kathy Silverio, 10 Velaire Drive, Boynton Beach, lives across the street from the
proposed project. Ms. Silverio was not opposed to the project, but she was concerned
about the zoning change to C-3 on the corner of the property. She pointed there already
was a Wal-Mart only two blocks west of the proposed project, which has greatly
increased traffic in this area. She felt it was very unsafe to try to cross Congress Avenue
and Old Boynton Road and referred to the many accidents that have occurred at this
intersection.
Ms. Silverio inquired if a Super Target was, in fact, slated for this property. If this were
the case, she felt that all you would see in Boynton Beach is a sea of asphalt and
parking lots. Ms. Silverio would like to see more greenery introduced on the site and
questioned if the City could support two Super Targets, since there is one being built at
Hagen Ranch and State Road #441. Lastly, Ms Silverio felt the new Muvico locating to
the Boynton Beach Mall would add to the traffic problem.
24
Meeting Minutes
Regular City Commission Meeting
Boynton Beach, Florida
February ~.5, 2005
Herb Suss, 1711 Wood Fern questioned the feasibility of placing a Super Target at this
site if one was being built out west. He also noted if this were the case, the current
Target Store at Gateway would shut down. Ms. Suss felt the City would be turning into
an "asphalt jungle" and noted all the developments going up in this area would only
increase traffic.
Alice Warren, 1719 Wood Fern Drive, was looking forward to having a smaller version
of Mizner Park at this site. If the City allowed the project, she felt the City owed its
citizens some kind of aesthetics such as fountains, landscaping and colors.
Rod Silverio, 10 Velaire Drive, reported the exit out of Wal-Mart onto Old Boynton
Road is a right turn only, yet people continue to make left turns, making it a very
dangerous situation. Only two weeks ago, there was a horrible accident at this site. Mr.
Silverio requested that the City take a good look at the traffic flow in this area since a
new Muvico would only add to the traffic situation. He requested the exit from Wal- Mart
be changed.
Jim Comparato stated they are also concerned about the traffic and have spent
countless hours with the County and staff to come up with a suitable solution. They are
cognizant of the traffic problems people have raised and are doing everything they can
to mitigate the traffic concerns of the community.
Since no one else wished to speak, Mayor Taylor closed the public hearing.
Commissioner Ensler pointed out that originally this site was to be a SMU and in
accordance with SMU zoning there are all types of previsions dealing with landscaping,
walkways and fountains that would have made the project very nice looking. Because
the SMU limits a building to 120,000 square feet, this was not acceptable to the
applicant. By allowing the applicant to change the zoning to C-3, this eliminates all the
requirements of the SMU. Commissioner Ensler asked the applicant how they could
give the citizens a project they would be proud of, instead of a concrete block.
Mr. Comparato responded that they submitted a plan as part of the SMU that included a
site plan for the balance of the property. The site plan showed the elevations and they
tried to match the two projects to compliment one another. They intend to keep the
same kind of theme between the SMU pamel and the C-3 parcel. Mr. Comparato was
willing to go on record to state they would keep with what they submitted for the site
plan and the elevations as being part of the approval process. Commissioner Ensler has
not seen the site plan. Mr. Comparato stated the plans called for mitigating the asphalt
and to make the project aesthetically pleasing.
Commissioner Ensier noted since this was not a site plan approval, was there anything
that could be done to insure that any subsequent owner of the property would adhere to
Mr. Comparator's site plan recommendations?
Attorney Cherof stated it was difficult to attach conditions of rezoning that would actually
apply to the site plan. It is possible during the discussions that led to this public hearing,
25
Meeting Minutes
Regular City Commission Meeting
Boynton Beach, Florida
February 15~ 2005
for the applicant and staff to work out some land use restrictions that would be recorded
with the property. This would bind any future purchaser to these conditions. Attorney
Cherof did not think the applicant and his attorney have engaged in these types of
discussions with staff at this point. Therefore, the Commission would have to rely on
representations made by the applicant publicly. Attorney Cherof did point out these
kinds of representations could be difficult to enforce.
Mr. Hudson noted that there is an additional condition that restricts the maximum
square footage for local/retail/commercial to 250,000 square feet.
Quintus Green Development Director, noted that the Commission had to make a
decision on how the parcel gets rezoned. Staff's initial feeling was that the entire parcel
should be SMU, which would require the applicable SMU standards. He noted the
developer felt that 120,000 square feet was too restrictive for a "big box" and wanted to
build something twice that size. This would be allowed under SMU if the building were
two stories. However, the applicant was opposed to this. The developer was informed
they could rezone to C~3 and have chosen to do so.
Commissioner Ensler asked the applicant if they would meet the SMU standards for the
project, except for the size of the building. Mr. Comparato would not commit to this and
felt that the statement was too broad, since he was not familiar with all the SMU
standards. Mr. Comparato did state that they would try to include amenities that would
compliment the SMU zoning requirements.
Vice Mayor Ferguson inquired if two detached buildings with the same name would be
allowed and Mr. Greene stated this could be done.

Attorney Cherof read Proposed Ordinance No. 05-013 by title only. Attorney Cherof
noted there were two corrections to the Ordinance. Page 2, the third Whereas Clause
from the bottom of page, in the last line, reads, "proposed changes would not create

north. The existing landscape material of the abutting property to the north
would have to be such that it meets the intent of the aforementioned code.
Any trees proposed within the subject property's three (3) foot wide
landscape buffer would have to adhere to Florida Power and Light (FP&L)
Right Tree - Right Place publication.
47. At the time of permitting, on the landscape plan, ensure that the plant X
quantities match between the tabular data and the graphic illustration.
48. Staff recommends limiting the maximum building height of Buildings Two, X
Three, and Four to 38 feet in order to maximize compatibility between the

52. Staff recommends installing tall, slender palm trees (such as Carpentaria or X
Solitaire) within each vacant interior parking island on both the north and
south sides of the building. The intent is to further break up the building
faqades with additional plant material. These trees should be installed at the
same height as the other native canopy trees planted along the buildings and
meet the clear trunk requirements of the landscape code. The type of palm
tree will be overseen by the City Forester at the time of permitting.
53. Staff recommends installing the Cabbage palm trees (proposed along the X
south property line) without the typical "hurricane cut". This would help to
provide immediate screening upon tree installation.
54. Staff recommends that the plant material proposed within the south landscape X
buffer be installed in such a way as to provide immediate buffering. This can
be accomplished by utilizing the following tactics: install all proposed trees
at their maximum height (within their specified range of heights) without
jeopardizing the visual buffering of lower-to-mid-level screening above the
wall, replace the stretch (series) of palm trees with canopy trees consistent
with the remainder of the buffer, and insert additional palm trees within the
south landscape buffer in areas where tip-to-tip spacing is not entirely
accomplished.

(a) 3, What is the difference between a facilitator and a "gatekeeper"?
This seems to invoke negativity. Is it necessary'?
5. The tkird paragraph of the resolution indicates that the grant funding
policies are intended to be supplemental and subordinate to federal regulations
as they pertain to the CDBG program. Are these policies for ali grants, or
specifically for the CDBG program? (If'the answer to this is yes, the
following question should be asked)
# 5 pg. 4 indicates that staff should consider whether special efforts should be
made to ensure fair and equal access to information and funding ,across
geographical areas, for ethnic or racial minority groups, for groups from
different religious and cultural backgrounds,,,, Are CDBG funds used for all
geographical areas? Are they specifically for any particular group?
7 pg, 5 indicates that staff should maintain date on individuals who inquire of
landing opportunities available, and that we should follow up as a means of
measuring the success of the procedures. It is my feeling that the success of
the procedure should be measured by the services delivered.
*This is also repeated in section (B) Processing grant applications. Is it
necessary'?

What is the notion of a deadline'? Is it fair to applicants that do what is
requested? There is nothing wrong with asking pertinent questions of an
applicant in regards to the service that they are providing, but applications
should be complete upon submission.

Amended conditions of approval (as agreed upon by all parties)
Accompanying this memorandum is the revised set of conditions of approval for the above-referenced
project, as agreed upon by the applicant (Lennar), INCA, and the selected group of homeowners
within the Yachtmans Cove and Coquina Cove Subdivisions currently represented by Mr. Michael
Morell, Esquire.
Staff has reviewed and approved these changes, which I understand represents an acceptable
resolution to all concerns communicated to date regarding building/fa~:ade changes to conform with
the height restriction, buffer landscaping, pool lighting, and future docks. Except for the changes
proposed to comment #48 (now comment #56), staff understands that the subject changes were
specifically proposed by Lennar, and reviewed and approved by INCA and the selected group of
homeowners. Changes to comment #48 is as originally proposed by Mr. Morell in his letter dated
January 25, 2005. Although a final review of these revised comments (by the concerned parties) will
occur concurrent with the forwarding of them to you, staff will confirm consensus or identify any new
issues prior to the hearing this evening.
Please note that the revised site plan pages referenced in new conditions #61 and #64 (regarding
buffer landscaping and pool lighting) are attached hereto, and should be considered by the
Commission as part of the revised conditions of approval. The full-size drawings will also be available
for review tonight, if necessary. Staff was involved in the discussion leading to the revised south
buffer, and again, supports the proposed revisions, and has conducted a cursory review of the
lighting plan and finds no objections at this time. Staff will conduct a more detailed review within the
permit process.
Please have this information distributed to the Commission as soon as our system will allow, and
contact me should you have any questions or need clarification.

meet the clear trunk requirements of the landscape code. The type of palm
tree will be overseen by the City Forester at the time of permitting.
53. Staff recommends installing the Cabbage palm trees (proposed along the X
south property line) without the typical "hun-icane cut". This would help to
provide immediate screening upon tree installation.
54. Staffrecommends that the plant material proposed within the south landscape X
buffer be installed in such a way as to provide immediate buffering. This can
be accomplished by utilizing the following tactics: install all proposed trees
at their maximum height (within their specified range of heights) without
jeopardizing the visual buffering of lower-to-mid-level screening above the
wall, replace the stretch (series) of palm trees with canopy trees consistent
with the remainder of the buffer, and insert additional palm trees with'm the
south landscape buffer in areas where tip-to-tip spacing is not entirely
accomplished.

Morell Request For Additional Conditions of Approval
Please recall that Michael Morell, Esq. represents sixteen (16) residents who
oppose the above referenced project. The project returns to the Commission at the
February 1, 2005 Commission meeting for second reading and public hearing of
Ordinance 05-007, which if passed will effectuate rezoning of the property from R-3 and
C-3 to IPUD.
Ordinance 05-007 (rezoning) was reviewed by the Commission, along with
consideration of the site plan in the marathon quasi-judicial hearing conducted January
18, 2005. The Ordinance was approved without conditions. The site plan was approved
with 54 conditions. By letter dated Mr. Morell has suggested modification to one of the
conditions of approval (48), and the addition of three (3) new conditions.
Staffhas previously noted the inseparable nature of rezoning and site plan review
in planned unit developments. If the Commission wishes to revise conditions of approval
that were made to the site plan, or add additional conditions, it must do so by way of a
motion to reconsider the site plan.~ If the motion to reconsider passes, that matter will be
re-notice for the following Commission meeting (February 15th) when the Commission
can modify, add, or remove conditions of approval as appropriate.
The Commission can proceed with the adoption of Ordinance 05-007 on February
lst or it can table the Ordinance to February 15th SO that passage coincides with the site
plan reconsideration if a motion to reconsider is made and is passed.
t Motions to reconsider a decision made at a quasi-judicial proceeding may only be made at the meeting
when the action was first taken, or the next regular City Comrmssion meeting. Code Section 2-20.

BOYNTON REGIONAL SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA
Barry M. Volkman, Music Director
561-304-3937
2005
Objectives
To form a regional community non-profit orchestra in central Palm Beach County based in
Boynton Beach but drawing on musicians from all areas surrounding that city. The
intentions are to develop an intergenerational classical symphony orchestra that will include
all qualifying musicians regardless of age and give them a place to showcase their talents
and just their joys of playing.
Venues
An appropriate rehearsal place must be found large enough to allow all the musicians to sit
comfortably and the sound to reverberate properly. Loci such as stages for performances
must be found to bring to fruition the work of the rehearsals.
Staffing
Musicians will be recruited to play in each orchestral section. A conductor, a concertmaster
(first violinist), librarian, and a set-up person are needed immediately to begin rehearsals of
the selected music. A board of directors must be found to create a set of by-laws, establish a
non-profit organization and perform the various duties that an orchestra requires: fund
raising, the purchasing of music and equipment, the hiring of soloists, the keeping of
financial records, publicity, ticket management, program layout and ad solicitation, ushering,
lighting, acoustical control, as well as other functions that may be needed.
Initial Goals
Our initial aims are to form the orchestra's sections, develop a performance schedule, aim
for a wide audience scope, perhaps to perform in more than one venue, seeking always to
increase the audience size and the orchestra quality, and to achieve nonprofit status and
develop an income system that will be ongoing.
Summary
It is the aim of the organizers of the Boynton Regional Symphony Orchestra to provide a
setting where musicians may play challenging and satisfying works, and that audiences may
derive pleasure, edification and entertainment. They believe that a performing orchestra at a
reasonable ticket cost makes for a cultural base that increases the desirability of the area as a
place to live.

Amended conditions of approval (as agreed upon by all parties)
Accompanying this memorandum is the revised set of conditions of approval for the above-referenced
project, as agreed upon by the applicant (Lennar), INCA, and the selected group of homeowners
within the Yachtmans Cove and Coquina Cove Subdivisions currently represented by Mr. Michael
Morell, Esquire.
Staff has reviewed and approved these changes, which I understand represents an acceptable
resolution to all concerns communicated to date regarding building/fa(~ade changes to conform with
the height restriction, buffer landscaping, pool lighting, and future docks. Except for the changes
proposed to comment ~48 (now comment #56), staff understands that the subject changes were
specifically proposed by Lennar, and reviewed and approved by INCA and the selected group of
homeowners. Changes to comment ~48 is as originally proposed by Mr. Morell in his letter dated
January 25, 2005. Although a final review of these revised comments (by the concerned parties) will
occur concurrent with the forwarding of them to you, staff will confirm consensus or identify any new
issues prior to the hearing this evening.
Please note that the revised site plan pages referenced in new conditions #61 and #64 (regarding
buffer landscaping and pool lighting) are attached hereto, and should be considered by the
Commission as part of the revised conditions of approval. The full-size drawings will also be available
for review tonight, if necessary. Staff was involved in the discussion leading to the revised south
buffer, and again, supports the proposed revisions, and has conducted a cursory review of the
lighting plan and finds no objections at this time. Staff will conduct a more detailed review within the
permit process.
Please have this information distributed to the Commission as soon as our system will allow, and
contact me should you have any questions or need clarification.

green space width shall be required for the abutting property in accordance
with Chapter 7.5, Article 1I, Section 5.D.E. of the Land Development
Regulations. At the time of permitting, the landscape plan would have to be
revised to show the existing landscape material of the abutting property to
north. The existing landscape material of the abutting property to the north
would have to be such that it meets the intent of the aforementioned code.
Any trees proposed within the subject property's three (3) foot wide
landscape buffer would have to adhere to Florida Power and Light (FP&L)
Right Tree - Right Place publication.
47. At the time of permitting, on the landscape plan, ensure that the plant X
quantities match between the tabular data and the graphic illustration.
48. Staff recommends limiting the maximum building height of Buildings Two, X
Three, and Four to 38 feet in order to maximize compatibility between the

52. Staff recommends installing tall, slender palm trees (such as Carpentaria or X
Solitaire) within each vacant interior parking island on both the north and
south sides of the building. The intent is to further break up the building
fagades with additional plant material. These trees should be installed at the
same height as the other native canopy trees planted along the buildings and
meet the clear trunk requirements of the landscape code. The type of palm
tree will be overseen by the City Forester at the time of permitting.
53. Staff recommends installing the Cabbage palm trees (proposed along the X
south property line) without the typical "hurricane cut". This would help to
provide immediate screening upon tree installation.
54. Staffrecommends that the plant material proposed within the south landscape X
buffer be installed in such a way as to provide immediate buffering. This can
be accomplished by utilizing the following tactics: install all proposed trees
at their maximum height (within their specified range of heights) without
jeopardizing the visual buffering of lower-to-mid-level screening above the
wall, replace the stretch (series) of palm trees with canopy trees consistent
with the remainder of the buffer, and insert additional palm trees within the
south landscape buffer in areas where tip-to-tip spacing is not entirely
accomplished.
