A.1. Habitat for Humanity (ZNCV 10-008), Zoning Code Variance - Request for
relief from the City of Boynton Beach Land Development Regulations, Chapter 2,
Zoning, Section 5.F.2.a., requiring a minimum side yard setback of 10 feet, to
allow a variance of 5 feet and a side (east side) yard setback of 5 feet; and,
Request for relief from the City of Boynton Beach Land Development
Regulations, Chapter 2, Zoning, Section 5.F.2.a., requiring a minimum rear yard
setback of 25 feet, to allow a variance of 5 feet and a rear yard setback of 20
feet, for a proposed two-family dwelling (duplex) within the R-2 Duplex
Residential zoning district. Applicant: Michael Campbell/Habitat for Humanity
Kathleen Zeitler, Planner, located the property on NE 11th Avenue within the Heart of
Boynton Community Redevelopment Area. A half-acre lot was proposed to include a
small residential subdivision for low income families. It is zoned R-2 permitting single
family or duplex residential with a 10-foot side setback and 25-foot rear yard setback.
The site plan shows the proposed duplex was shifted east to comply with the 10-foot
side setback on the west property line. The change would lessen the number of
variances required and the impact of a reduced setback on the east side would be
minimal. The lot to the east will remain undeveloped due to size and configuration. A
variance of five feet would be required from the rear yard setback from the north
property line.
The floor plan includes one unit with 1,796 square feet and the second unit with 1,754
square feet having three bedrooms, two bathrooms and a one-car garage. The
2
Minutes
Planning and Development Board
Boynton Beach, FL

applicant did not meet all the criteria for a variance and the hardship was created by the
applicant proposing two units on the lot. The duplex could be redesigned, reducing the
size of the duplex or building single family residences to avoid the need for variances.
The applicant rejected those options. Staff recommended the request be denied.
However, staff did support residential redevelopment and associated improvements and
previous variances have been approved under similar circumstances, placing greater
emphasis on economic potential, minor home improvements, characteristics of or
impact on surrounding properties.
Granting the variance would be in harmony with the general intent of the ordinance
without any negative impact on the area. The adjacent single-family residences will not
be impacted and the eastern lot will remain vacant and create a greater setback. There
is also a history of variance in the neighborhood and non-conforming conditions. The
proposed project would have the appearance of conformity with the surrounding homes.
The site is in the Heart of Boynton Community Redevelopment Area and revitalizes a
vacant, unused parcel. It provides new housing with home ownership. A duplex would
provide low income housing for an additional family in need and have a greater
economic impact for the City. No letters or phone calls were received in opposition to
the variance. No conditions of approval were necessary.
Mike Campbell, 181 SE 5th Avenue, Delray Beach, advised Habitat for Humanity had
bought the property in January 2008 and through January 2010 devised a plan to
maximize the property for a community known as Boynton Beach Gardens. It was
anticipated to be in a land trust with a 99-year lease to each homeowner. There would
be a community garden established for the homes in the area. It would be governed by
a homeowners association and have a lawn maintenance program rather than the
individual homeowners. There would be a water system for the residences for irrigation
without a cost to the homeowners. The adjoining vacant lot was not affordable for
acquisition by Habitat for Humanity.
Ms. Grcevic inquired if there had been any interest generated and Mr. Campbell
responded four families had inquired and two families were working through the
process. The build time would be approximately six months.
Mr. Saberson opened the issue for public hearing.
Karen Potts, 409 NE 11th Avenue, lived adjacent to the project, and voiced concern
over the park that would be located behind her property. She did not want a garden and
people hanging out in the lot. She would have not bought her house if she had known a
park was a being planned. Ms. Potts liked the development coming to the area, but she
strongly opposed a park behind her home.
Mr. Barnes confirmed that the park was not a part of the application before the Board.
He explained to Ms. Potts her concerns should be addressed to Habitat for Humanity or
City staff. Ms. Potts reiterated her understanding Mr. Campbell indicated a garden
3
Minutes
Planning and Development Board
Boynton Beach, FL

would be planted. There were many parks in the area and she did not understand why
a park was needed for the small project.
Ms. Zeitler clarified that Ms. Potts' lot was west of lot one and the variance was for lot
two. Ms. Grcevic explained the Board was only considering lot two and not the lot for
the garden/park.
Mr. Myott inquired if the garden issue would be brought before the Board. Mr. Rumpf
replied community gardens would not be site planned. Parks and signage would get
site planned. It depended on the characteristics that had not been disclosed. Mr. Myott
noted the community gardens are generally fenced with no light. They appear to only
be used during daylight hours and limited to a small number of people.
Mr. Campbell explained there was not a park function planned. It is an interior area that
will ultimately be open green space for all homes that is not accessible to the
community at large, but all the project homes would open to the area. The space is
relatively small and passive.
Mr. Myott commented the idea was ground-breaking ideas Habitat for Humanity would
not generally be able to do a multi-family type project. Several site plans have been
proposed and failed. Even though the plan was contrary to the Code, he supported the
project and design for housing at a reasonable cost.
Mr. Barnes echoed Mr. Myott's comment and offered that non-profit home builders
should be afforded incentives such as smaller setbacks. Many of the current lots were
non-conforming and inappropriate widths. He favored the proposal.
Mr. Saberson also supported the request because the variances were non-impacting
and it was a worthwhile project.
Motion
Mr. Myott moved to approve the Habitat for Humanity zoning Code variance request for
relief from the City of Boynton Beach Land Development Regulations, Chapter 2
Zoning, Section 5.f.2.a requiring a minimum side yard setback of 10 feet to allow a
variance of 5 feet on the east side and an east side yard set back of 5 feet. Mr. Barnes
seconded the motion. The motion carried.

B.1. Gateway Hotel (NWSP 09-003), New Site Plan - Request for New Site Plan
approval for construction of a four (4) story, 77,744 square foot, 108 room hotel
on Lot 2, Quantum Park, in the Planned Industrial Development (PID) Zoning
District. Applicant: John Vaughan, Art & Architecture, Inc.
Ed Breese, Principal Planner, reviewed the request of North Boynton Beach Hospitality
for a new site plan approval. It would be adjacent to the Hampton Inn & Suites in
Quantum Park. The applicant owns Hampton Inn & Suites and has been negotiating
with hotel chains to locate on the site. The main point of ingress and egress would be
Quantum Boulevard and a secondary point through the Regions Bank site on an
existing easement. The parking requirements have been met including five handicap
spaces. There was a waiver granted by the Engineering Department for the size of the
parking spaces to coordinate with the previous parking sizes for the existing properties.
Landscape proposed was reviewed. Staff recommended the placement of taller shrubs
along the east side of the hotel, with substantial plant materials between the hedge and
tree heights. The smaller areas of sod onsite should be planted with native plantings to
reduce the irrigation requirements.
The roof height would be 41 feet with an average parapet of 45 feet or 50 feet and
below in compliance with the Planned Industrial District (PID) maximum height
regulations. The architectural designs follow the Hampton Inn as well as Renaissance
Commons structures and paint colors. The signage would be on Quantum Boulevard
and individual channel wall signage.
The Architectural Review Committee for Quantum Park reviewed and approved the
plans. Staff recommended approval subject to the conditions listed.
Mr. Barnes questioned if the larger sod areas could be eliminated for environmental
purposes. Mr. Breese would support that change; however, noting green areas are
sometimes available for play space
John Vaughan, Art & Architecture, Inc, 1055 SW 15th Avenue, Delray Beach, was
willing to investigate landscape changes as suggested. The new hotel would enhance
the area and be a positive image for the City. Mr. Saberson confirmed the applicant
was in agreement with the Conditions of Approval. Mr. Vaughan concurred.
Mr. Barnes requested clarification that the easement to the south was available, since a
dumpster was there. Mr. Vaughan explained it had been moved to the location
temporarily and remained for some time. It was a dedicated easement.
Mr. Myott inquired if there were any green initiatives or LEED applications. Mr.
Vaughan indicated interior items would lend it to sustainability. It would not be listed as
a LEEDs, but items were being pursued to conserve water and waste. Mr. Myott further
5
Minutes

Boynton Beach, FL

asked, if by design, the building would meet the needs of other hotel chains. Mr.
Vaughan replied both Hilton products and Marriott products would be compatible with
brand. The question of possible conflict or competition for survival between the two
hotels was addressed by Mr. Myott. It was asserted that the new adventure would lend
itself to slightly longer stays and would eliminate any possible conflict. The
management would remain separate.
Ms. Grcevic commented the small kitchenettes were a positive for those coming to the
area wanting to stay for a longer period without a monthly commitment. Renaissance
Commons across the street would be an asset also for shopping.
Chair Saberson opened the issue for public hearing. No one came forward.
Motion
Mr. Barnes moved to approve the request for new site plan approval for construction of
a four (4) story, 77,744 square foot, 108 room hotel on Lot 2, Quantum Park, in the
Planned Industrial Development (PID) Zoning District subject to all conditions. Ms.
Grcevic seconded the motion. The motion carried.
C.1. South Florida MasterCraft (aka JR Watersports) (COUS 10-003),
Conditional Use - Request to amend two (2) conditions of approval associated
with the previously granted conditional use approval for a 7,419 square foot new
boat dealership to extend the timeframe to complete all site improvements by six
(6) months and to allow one (1) watercraft to be displayed forward of the front
building line in the General Commercial (C-4) zoning district. Applicant: Mike
Wood, South Florida Master Craft.
Mr. Myott disclosed he had to excuse himself on this item as the architect for the
renovation of the building.
Mr. Breese reviewed the request to amend two conditions of approval relating to the
conditional use approval for a boat dealership on Federal Highway. Approval was
received in 2009 and the building had been renovated and opened for business. There
was a request to add one boat to be displayed in front of the building, during the hours
of operation, which was previously precluded. A blue rock area had been included to
give the illusion of the boat being in water. The second request was for an additional six
months to complete the site improvements. It would be easier to complete the changes
during the off season and be the least disruptive to operation. Additional revenue could
continue to accumulate pending the completion.
The improvements to be completed include installation of a decorative chain-link fence,
additional landscaping and a drainage system. Staff recommended approval of the
requested changes. The applicant had made a good faith effort to complete the site
improvements. The justification for the six-month extension was determined to be valid
6

Planning and Development Board
Boynton Beach, FL
July 27,2010
and the display of one watercraft, forward of the building line, during the hours of
operation was supported. The extension would be to January 21, 2011.
Mike Wood, 803 NW 11th Street, was present to respond to any questions.
Ms. Grcevic commented there had been resistance when the project was first proposed.
Her view of the property was that it had been greatly improved and does have a positive
impact on the area.
Mr. Barnes agreed the property looked great and the boat in front during business hours
was not an issue. He was in favor of the project.
Ms. Killian drove by the property regularly and agreed it was a major improvement
Chair Saberson opened the issue for public hearing.
Daniel Spotts, had a retail store immediately north of the proposed site. He expressed
concern with the ultimate plan for the zone. When he originally brought his business to
the City of Boynton Beach he was encouraged to come to the industrial zone because it
was being developed and there were exciting plans. Many of the businesses have been
torn down and the area improved, particularly the project site. He had questioned the
planned project because it was similar in nature to the previous operation and contrary
to the plans for the area that had been explained to him originally. His primary objection
was the slow creep of the site back to its original use and the ultimate plan for the entire
area. The proposed trees in the front would block the view of his business and he did
not trust the City of Boynton Beach to stand by their plan in the future.
Chair Saberson encouraged Mr. Spotts to meet with staff and review the information.
The two issues before the Board for consideration were reviewed. Mr. Spotts reiterated
he specifically objected to the boats in the front of the business which had not been
agreed to in the beginning.
Mr. Barnes stressed it was only one boat in the front and the fencing would be more
decorative in nature than screening. The change is incremental and involves a sub-
standard lot. Mr. Breese clarified the zoning was C-4, intense commercial, and did
allow some industrial characteristics. It is a retail store for boats. The location of the
display boat is in a corner.
Chair Saberson advised Mr. Spotts he was asking for something the Board could not
legally do. The Board cannot guarantee that Conditions of Approval would not be
changed. Mr. Spotts argued he had been told the plan was to change the area and it
was now creeping back to the same type of culture as existed.
Ms. Grcevic emphasized boat maintenance would not be undertaken along Federal
Highway. The request was to showcase one boat and not a storage location. She
7
Minutes
Planning and Development Board
Boynton Beach, FL

hoped it would attract those with boats to the Promenade or Marina Village and take
advantage of the waterway that exists.
Mr. Wood indicated the boat was valuable and it would not be appropriate to park it in
the front when the business was not in operation. It has to be stored within a building.
Mr. Wood advised he had surveyed his neighbors and had received no objections.
Ms. Killian understood Mr. Spotts' concerns based on the past owners; however, Mr.
Wood had made a good faith effort to improve the site and the City. Mr. Barnes did not
feel the establishment of retail boat sales would constitute a creep of industrial type
development.
Chair Saberson developed that the location of some of the trees had been moved to
accommodate the signage on Federal Highway. Mr. Breese cautioned the gradual
growth of the canopy trees may eventually obscure the visibility of the adjacent property
and signage. Mr. Wood had spoken with the adjacent property owner and had agreed
on what trees should be moved and where. He had no problem with altering the
location of the trees if necessary.
Motion
Mr. Barnes moved to approve the request of J.R. Watersports of South Florida to
amend two (2) conditions of approval associated with the previously granted conditional
use approval for a 7,419 square foot new boat dealership to extend the timeframe to
complete all site improvements by six (6) months and to allow one (1) watercraft to be
displayed forward of the front building line in the General Commercial (C-4) zoning
district with all conditions of approval. Ms. Foertsch seconded the motion. The motion
carried.
D.1. Dry Cleaners in Mixed Use (CDRV 10-006), Code Review - Request approval
for proposed amendments to the Land Development Regulations Part III LDR,
specifically to Chapter 1, Article II Definitions by adding a definition for dry
cleaners, and to modify Chapter 2. Zoning, Sections 6.F.4 Table 6F-1 and H.3
Table 6H-1 by allowing such establishments within all mixed use districts,
requiring conditional use approval if they clean or launder clothing on-premises.
Applicant: City-initiated.
Eric Johnson, Planner II, explained the proposed Code amendments. There would be
new definitions for dry cleaner and dry cleaning plant. The zoning changes would
change the matrix of permitted uses. The change was prompted by an operator of a dry
cleaner who wants to locate in the mixed use district and do laundering or cleaning type
of activities onsite. Currently dry cleaners encompass only onsite drop off with no
cleaning activities allowed. Dry cleaners are allowed in most commercial districts and
the mixed use districts. The current restrictions were based on untested and unproven
mixed use regulations and uncertainty as to the development pattern. There was also a
8
Minutes
Planning and Development Board
Boynton Beach, FL
July 27,2010
perception that dry cleaning activities could be disruptive to adjacent residents due to
machine noise and chemicals, plus a concern regarding the size and frequency of
delivery trucks. The dry cleaning process includes the use of PERC (perchloroethylene)
which is not environmentally friendly. The perspective vendor had indicated it would be
a green cleaner, doing wet and dry cleaning and using liquid silicone, which is more
environmentally friendly. Mr. Johnson cautioned that other dry cleaners would be
allowed to operate and could use PERC only. The zoning changes would be allowed as
a conditional use in the mixed use districts.
Staff recommended that any onsite cleaning or laundering would require conditional use
approval so interior or external alteration would have little or no adverse impact or
conflict with the existing buildings' architecture or quality. It would guarantee that the
use could co-exist and be compatible. There would be a maximum size of 2,000 square
feet to prevent the growth or conversion of each store to a more intense or unintended
use.
Mr. Myott inquired if the prospected location was in Renaissance Commons and Mr.
Johnson confirmed.
Chair Saberson declared there was no audience for public hearing comments.
Motion
Mr. Barnes moved to approve dry cleaners in mixed use with all staff conditions. Mr.
Myott seconded the motion. The motion carried.
E.1. LDR Re-write Group 8 continued (CDRV 07-004), Code Review - Request
approval of a portion of Group 8 deliverable, pursuant to the LDR Rewrite Work
Schedule, including: Chapter 1, Article VII Administrative and Decision Making
Bodies: Chapter 1, Article VIII Appeals; Chapter 1, Article IX Notice of Intent; and
all applications administered by the Planning and Zoning Division.
Mr. Johnson announced this was the final installment of the LDR (Land Development
Regulations) re-write process. It includes the administrative and decision making
bodies, language on appeals, notice of intent and new land development applications.
The wireless communication provisions are not completed at this time. The City Clerk
submitted comments regarding Article VII resulting in the appointees of the Planning
and Development Board shall be members until their term expires. The sentence
relating to alternate members having preference should be deleted and the annual
appointments would be in January of each year. Staff was seeking approval of the draft
version and forward to the City Commission.
There was speculation that the final ordinance would be presented to the Commission
in September or October for approval.

July 27,2010
Mr. Barnes noted in the existing Code, the Board only had authority over existing mobile
vendor units and it did not appear in the proposed Code amendments. Mr. Johnson
agreed it should be included. Relating to the authority of the CRA it would be erroneous
to have the CRA indicated in the LDR with the same kind of authority of the Planning
and Development Board.
Mr. Barnes suggested final authority to approve variances should remain with the
Planning and Development Board. It would take the approval out of the political realm.
Mr. Johnson refined the suggestion that it should be any variance, not attached to a site
plan, should remain with the Planning and Development Board. Mr. Barnes contended
it would be cumbersome to split up the variance and new site plan. Attorney Alexander
agreed a variance and new site plan should travel together to the City Commission.
Mr. Myott inquired if some municipalities have Boards of Adjustment and Attorney
Alexander agreed there are Boards of Adjustment in other cities. Any change would be
a Code change. Currently the Planning and Development Board deals with variances
and makes a recommendation to the City Commission. Mr. Myott surmised the
variances do not make it to the Planning and Development Board unless they have a
good chance of approval. He speculated that the system was good for a developer
friendly community. Ms. Killian added the citizen should be able to face off with the City
Commission because they are voters and they have a right to expression. Mr. Barnes
understood that aspect, but added the Code of Ordinances would be upheld that should
not be subject to political whims.
Ms. Grcevic was in favor of the current system because the majority of the public with
concerns want to go to the Commission meeting. Mr. Johnson clarified a variance
request without a site plan attached would be decided at the Planning and Development
Board. The applicant could then file an appeal to the City Commission. Mr. Barnes
disagreed and countered that any appeal would go directly to the Courts rather than the
Commission. There would be additional fees. Ms. Killian reiterated the citizens have a
right to speak to their elected officials and have their concerns heard. It is a significant
event for a homeowner. Staff should interpret the rules and the Planning and
Development Board makes recommendations to the City Commission.
Mr. Rumpf added there had been review of the time and effort required for the process
and attempts to expedite the process. Very few variances get denied. With the
Planning and Development Board having final authority, it would reduce approximately
three weeks in the approval process.
Mr. Myott stressed it was imperative that the quality of the presentations and level of
detail should be high so that everyone has a very clear picture of the request. Mr.
Rumpf commented the issue had been recognized and more detail has been added
with the last few projects. It is best addressed in the Administrative Guidelines and
could be enhanced in the site plan submittal requirements. Chair Saberson and Ms.
Foertsch had no comments. Mr. Barnes was content to accept the remarks as

discussed.
Mr. Johnson requested direction if the mobile vendor approval should go directly to the
Commission or be reviewed by the Planning and Development Board and then to the
Commission. Mr. Myott and Mr. Barnes felt the request should go through the Planning
and Development Board. Mr. Myott added it influenced the quality of retail. Attorney
Alexander advised the last Ordinance was 07-024 that addressed the issue indicating
the approval would be with the Planning and Development Board or the Community
Redevelopment Agency (CRA) Board. Ms. Grcevic agreed the final decision should
remain with the Planning and Development Board. Mr. Barnes suggested for
consistency, the Mobile Vending Units approval process should be added.
Mr. Saberson questioned the advertising requirement for site plans as part of the
condition of approval. Mr. Johnson pointed out a site plan is not advertised with a legal
notice published in the newspaper.
Motion
Mr. Myott moved to recommend that this section of the LDR Re-write be forwarded to
the City Commission. Ms. Grcevic seconded the motion. The motion carried.
8. Other
None
9. Comments by members
Mr. Myott inquired about the status of the WalMart site plan at the Gulfstream Mall. The
fence has been taken down and it was an eyesore. He wanted an update on the South
Federal Corridor. Mr. Breese advised WalMart was completing the permit set to submit
for permit drawings. A minor modification had been submitted for the landscaping and
parking. It was continuing to progress to a permit set of drawings.
Mr. Breese reported there have been more pre-application meetings and more inquiries
on previously approved projects or other pieces of property. The Board was pleased to
have the new hotel being added.

There being nothing further business to come before the Board, Chair Saberson
