P R O C L A M A T I O N
The Citizens of Boynton Beach stand firmly committed to quality afterschool programs and
opportunities because they provide safe, challenging, engaging and fun learning experiences to help
children and youth develop social, emotional, physical, cultural and academic skills. The programs
support working families by ensuring their children are safe and productive after the regular school day
ends. It builds strong communities by involving students, parents, business leaders and adult volunteers
in the lives of young people, thereby promoting positive relationships among children, youth, families
and adults; engage families, schools and diverse community partners in advancing the welfare of our
children.
In support of its mission as an intermediary to ensure that afterschool programs are of high quality in
th
terms of delivery, practice and standards, Prime Time Palm Beach County, Inc. will celebrate its 6
Annual Lights on Afterschool Palm Beach County event on October 21, 2010. A national celebration of
afterschool programs, Lights On Afterschool promotes the critical importance of quality afterschool
programs in the lives of children, their families and their communities.
More than 28 million children in the U.S. have parents who work outside the home, and over 15 million
children have no place to go after school. Many afterschool programs across the country are facing
funding shortfalls so severe that they are being forced to close their doors and turn off their lights.
Now, therefore, I, Jose Rodriguez, by virtue of the authority vested in me as Mayor of the City of
Boynton Beach, Florida, hereby proclaim October 21, 2010, as
Lights On Afterschool Day
and urge all citizens to support innovative afterschool programs and activities that ensure that our
children are engaged in positive and productive activities.
In witness whereof, I have hereunto set my hand and caused the Seal of the City of Boynton Beach,
Florida, to be affixed at Boynton Beach, Florida, the 19th day of October, Two Thousand and Ten.

restated Three-Year Lease Agreement for City Library Café.
ER:
On September 14, 2009, the City Commission approved
XPLANATION OF EQUEST
Resolution R09-136 granting a Three Year Lease to Ellie’s Catering, Inc., (now B&J Catering,
Inc.) for the concession operation at the City Library Café since they were the only respondent
to the City’s Request for Qualifications. Actual operation of the café did not commence until
late February, 2010. Since then, the tenant is experiencing low traffic at the café and the
anticipated revenue is significantly below what was anticipated when the concession was
awarded. As a result, monthly lease payments are late and unable to be paid in full.
Staff met with the tenant and both parties agree that new payment terms of the Lease are
needed to provide an opportunity for the tenant to build the business and be successful in this
location. The tenant requests modification of the Lease to reduce the monthly rent as reflected
in the Restated “Three-Year Lease Agreement Concession Operations at Boynton Beach City
Library Café” attached hereto.
The Restated Lease provides for reduced monthly lease payments over the three (3) year
initial term of the Lease that commenced in April 2010 as noted in the following comparison.

Without a rent adjustment, it is likely that

the tenant will not be able to successfully perform the concession services and that service
would be discontinued until an alternate concessionaire is awarded use of the facility.

LTERNATIVES
1. Terminate the Lease in its entirety and re-evaluate the viability of operating a Library
Café.
2. Deny the request for lease modification and hold the tenant to the express terms and
conditions of the Lease.
3. Approve a lease modification, but with financial terms different than proposed.

the City's application and participation in the Employed Worker's Training (EWT) program, a Subsidized
Training Program funded by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA), through an
agreement with Workforce Alliance, Inc.
ER:
Workforce Alliance, Inc. received stimulus funding via a pass-
XPLANATION OF EQUEST
through award from the Florida Workforce Innovation. The grant program provides 90%
reimbursement of eligible training costs. This grant program, unlike past training grant awards
from the Workforce Alliance, Inc., has many new requirements, limiting the opportunities for
participation. These are detailed in the attached Employed Worker Training Vendor
Agreement. Fortunately, the Recreation & Parks Department Child Care Director’s Certification
training meets the eligibility criteria.
H?
The Recreation & Parks Department
OW WILL THIS AFFECT CITY PROGRAMS OR SERVICES
operates two licensed afterschool programs for youth ages 5 – 12 years old. These programs
and sites are licensed Child Care facilities. The Department of Children & Families (DCF)
requires staff to obtain and maintain certifications to remain in compliance with the City’s Child
Care license. In September, the individual with the Child Care Director’s certificate resigned
from the City, leaving the afterschool programs without a Certified Director. At the risk of losing
their license and closing the afterschool programs leaving over 140 families without care, the
Recreation & Parks Department is requiring all related staff to obtain his/her Child Care
Director’s Certification.
There are seven individuals who require training to obtain a certification essential to his/her job
functions. The $5,000 training was not budgeted for, as the resignation of the employees was
unforeseen. This additional, unanticipated expense is a hardship on the department’s budget.
62 of 342
FI:
To be awarded EWT funding, the total employer contribution must be at least

50% of the total training cost. The cash match of $1,030.00 for the training will be taken from
the Recreation and Parks Department Revenue Account Other Contractual Services #172-

Additional sidewalk construction is necessary due to a field adjustment of

PROPERTY OWNER NOTIFICATION
Owners of properties within 400 feet of the subject site plan were mailed a notice of this
request and its respective hearing dates. The applicant has certified that signage is posted
and notices mailed in accordance with Ordinance No. 04-007.
BACKGROUND
Site Features:
The subject property consists of 4.59 acres with approximately 325 feet of
frontage on South Congress Avenue to the east, approximately 564 feet of
frontage on Charter Drive North to the south, and approximately 325 feet
of frontage on Palmland Drive to the west. The subject property is
comprised of Tract B, a portion of the plat of Manor Care (Plat Book 54,
Pages 106-107). All existing structures on site from the previous nursing
home use have been demolished.
Proposal:
Mr. Steven Bugay, agent for the property owner, is seeking new site plan
approval to construct a private school consisting of approximately 50,000 square
feet of building area on 4.59 acres in the C-3 zoning district. According to their
website, the Slomin Family Center will be a nationally recognized campus that
promotes full participation in school, home, and community for individuals with
Autism Spectrum Disorder and their families in an environment crafted to invite
exploration and social experiences.
The proposed campus will house The Sandra C. Slomin Family Center for
Autism and Related Disabilities that will provide a full array of medical,
therapeutic, personal services, and social programming for the students who
attend the school. The center will serve as a coordination point for the County,
with a task force of local organizations helping to mobilize around the needs of
those experiencing autism and related disabilities.
The Slomin Family Center will provide educational and family services to the
community for both children with autism spectrum disorders and their siblings.
The Center includes a daycare facility of 5,616 square feet, a clinic, and a private
school facility for grades elementary through high school (K-12) of 17,379 square
feet, ultimately serving a total of 500 students. Phase one, totaling approximately
30,000 square feet would include children from daycare through elementary
school with an outdoor pool, a gymnasium, cafeteria, and various clinical offices.
A small salon and a 4-seat dental clinic are also proposed. Phase two, totaling
approximately 20,000 square feet would include additional elementary
classrooms, middle and high school classrooms, as well as science rooms and
an additional cafeteria. The proposed construction timeline indicates a
groundbreaking in January, 2011 with the campus opening with therapeutic and
community and family-centered services in January, 2013 and the private school
opening later in 2013. Project build-out is planned for 2015.
207 of 342
All construction will be in conformance with the Florida Building Code, the State
of Florida requirements for Educational Facilities, and the Florida Safe School
Design Guidelines. The proposed project will include many sustainable
development LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) features
with the goal of obtaining Silver level certification (see details under Building and
Site in Analysis section below).
ANALYSIS
Concurrency:
Traffic:
A traffic impact statement for the project was sent to the Palm Beach County
Traffic Division for concurrency review in order to ensure an adequate level of
service. The traffic analysis for the proposed school indicates the project would
generate a total of 795 net trips per day, 352 net A.M. peak hour trips and 58 net
P.M. peak hour trips at project build-out in 2015. The required traffic concurrency
for this project was approved by the Palm Beach County Traffic Division on
September 15, 2010 with a build-out year of 2015.
School:
School concurrency is not required for this type of project.
Utilities:
The City’s water capacity, as increased through the purchase of up to five
(5) million gallons of potable water per day from Palm Beach County
Utilities, would meet the projected potable water for this project. Sufficient
sanitary sewer and wastewater treatment capacity is also currently
available to serve the project.
Police/Fire:
Police has reviewed the site plan and all comments have been addressed.
Fire Rescue expects to be able to provide an adequate level of service for
this project with current or expected infrastructure and/or staffing levels.
Further plan review by Police and Fire will occur during the building permit
process.
Drainage:
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.
Access:
The subject property is located at the northwest corner of South Congress
Avenue and Charter Drive North.Vehicular ingress/egress is proposed
from a two (2)-way access drive on Charter Drive North that connects to
the off-street parking lot in front of the proposed school. The proposed
general traffic flow for the subject school will be ingress from the
easternmost driveway on Charter Drive North with counter-clockwise
movement around the parking lot to the main building entrance where
there would be a drop-off and pick-up area for the students.
According to the traffic impact analysis submitted, the proposed site
configuration will allow approximately 49 cars to queue on site. To
minimize traffic conflicts during peak times, employees would help
facilitate traffic flow on-site and at the main access drive. In addition, the
hours of the school will be staggered for each program.
208 of 342
The easternmost median in Charter Drive North will be modified to allow
an improved turning radius. For improved traffic control during peak
times, access from the existing shared driveway north of the subject
property will be temporarily blocked with cones and used for emergency
access only. A separate bus stacking area is proposed on the south side
of the school to minimize any potential conflict between autos and buses.
The westernmost driveway on Charter Drive North will be used exclusively
for bus ingress into a two (2)-lane drive that includes a bypass lane on the
south side of the school, with bus egress from the main driveway.
Parking:
The project proposes a total of 53,292 square feet of enclosed gross
building area, including mezzanines.The site plan depicts parking spaces
located east of the school fronting South Congress Avenue. Current
parking requirements for elementary and middle schools require one (1)
parking space per 500 square feet of classroom floor area, and high
school and vocational school require one (1) parking space per 100
square feet of classroom floor area. The proposed revisions to the school
parking requirements of the Land Development Regulations are more
restrictive, being based on gross floor area rather than classroom floor
area. The site plan indicates a total of 106 parking spaces are required
and 118 parking spaces are provided, including five (5) handicap
accessible spaces, based on the more restrictive gross floor area
provision. In addition, approximately 28 parking spaces with stabilized
sod along the east perimeter of the parking lot would serve as overflow
parking for special events.
According to the Traffic Impact Statement submitted, sufficient
vehicle stacking is provided on site and vehicular circulation is designed
so that cars dropping off students can wrap around the parking lot, and not
interfere with traffic flow on the adjacent roadway. The Engineering
Division is recommending conditions of approval requiring a future traffic
study and possible traffic improvements to the intersection of South
Congress Avenue and Charter Drive North (see Exhibit “C” – Conditions of
Approval) if warranted by the study or based on observed deficiencies.
The 90-degree parking stalls, excluding the handicap space, would be
dimensioned nine and one-half (9 ½) feet in width and 18 and one-half (18
½) feet in length and include continuous curbing. All proposed parking
stalls, including the size and location of the handicap space, were
reviewed and approved by both the Engineering Division and Building
Division. In addition, all necessary traffic control signage and permanent
markings will be provided to clearly delineate areas on site and direction of
circulation.
Landscaping:
The site plan indicates that 26% of the site would be pervious consisting of
landscaped and open space areas. The site and landscape plans show
the planted landscape strip on a berm along the east property line
adjacent to South Congress Avenue. Along the west property line
adjacent to Palmland Drive and residential uses existing palms will remain
and be included within a landscape buffer that includes an existing six (6)
209 of 342
foot masonry buffer wall. Landscape buffers along the north and south
property lines would screen vehicular use areas, including the bus loop.
Several existing trees will be removed and mitigated. The proposed
landscaping provides a complimentary mix of large existing trees to
remain such as Green Buttonwood and Washingtonia Palms, along with
proposed canopy trees such as Gumbo Limbo, Green Buttonwood,
Japanese Privet, and Yellow Elder, along with a variety of palms and
native shrubs.The landscape plan provides 16 extra trees on site and
exceeds the minimum landscape requirements. The landscape code
requires that 50% or more of the plant material be native species. The
plant chart (sheet L-1) indicates the landscape plan complies with this
requirement by providing 78% native trees, 98% native palms, and 53%
native shrubs. Irrigation will use non-potable water only.
Building and Site:
The proposed buildings are linear from east to west on the subject
property and oriented to face south. The main building entrance faces
east toward the parking lot adjacent to South Congress Avenue and
consists of a handicap accessible entry. Another handicap-accessible
entry is located on the south side of the building adjacent to the bus lane.
Pedestrian circulation is proposed by sidewalks along all adjacent rights-
of-way, with covered pedestrian corridors throughout the development. To
encourage alternative transportation, the school will provide bike racks for
26 bicycles at the northeast corner of the buildings and preferred parking
spaces for hybrid and electric vehicles.
The proposed project is designed with one (1)-story buildings devoted
primarily to classrooms and offices.The project includes covered
pedestrian corridors, courtyards, open space and recreation areas such as
a pool, a tree grove consisting of Laurel Oaks, play field, vegetable
garden, and café patio.
Some of the sustainable features being considered to obtain LEED
certification for the project include: use of low maintenance vegetation
and non-potable water for irrigation; use of pervious pavers for parking
spaces; use of stabilized sod for overflow parking; encouraging alternative
transportation through bike racks and preferred parking for hybrid and
electric vehicles; use of high-albedo roofs to reduce heat absorption;
construction waste recycling during construction; light pollution reduction
through day lighting strategies; water-conserving fixtures; and low to non-
toxic paints, low-emitting carpet, and non-solvent based adhesives.
Building Height:
The one-story building elevations (sheets A10 – A11) indicate the top of
metal deck roofs would be 22 feet – six (6)-inches and the highest
elevation (gymnasium) would be 28 feet – six (6)-inches. The proposed
building height is well below the maximum height of 45 feet allowed in the
C-3 zoning district.
Building Design:
As depicted on the Building Elevations (sheet A-10), the proposed
buildings have modern exterior design elements that include walls of
either white metal panel or fiber cement board over tilt-up construction;
210 of 342
large north facing clerestory windows; and metal roofs.According to the
elevations and materials board, the main base color of the buildings would
be a soft white with some building trim in soft blue and green colors.The
810 square foot accessory pool equipment and storage building would
match the colors and materials of the principal buildings. Decorative metal
art screens and continuous walls with “green” screens consisting of
vegetation would be used throughout the development to provide texture
and visual interest.
Site Lighting:
The photometric plan (sheet L-8) proposes a total of 13 freestanding
single light fixtures and six (6) freestanding double light fixtures
throughout the site. The photometric plan proposes a height of 25 feet for
the freestanding pole fixtures. Staff is recommending as a condition of
approval that freestanding pole fixtures be limited to a maximum of 18 feet
in height. Additionally, site lighting will be recessed and shielded on all
sides to direct light down and away from adjacent properties and rights-of-
way to prevent glare and light spillage onto adjacent properties.
Site Signage:
No monument sign or wall signage on the building is proposed.
However, the building elevations indicate the name of the school on the
glass doors at the east entrance. The site address is also required to be
identified on the building.
Public Art:
An open space for public art exhibition is reserved on site to be visible
from Congress Avenue. The artwork proposed is a large format art piece
that will be integrated into the architecture of the east building entrance.
This artwork would complement the architecture of the proposed building
and enhance the ambiance of the proposed development. Ultimate review
and approval of the artist and sculpture is still pending by the Arts
Commission.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff has reviewed this request for New Site Plan and recommends approval of the plans
presented, subject to satisfying all comments indicated in Exhibit“C” – Conditions of Approval.
Any additional conditions recommended by the Board or City Commission shall be
documented accordingly in the Conditions of Approval.

Conditional Use Approval for Stealth Rooftop Antennas
INTRODUCTION
Brian Plewinski of Civil Solutions Inc., representing Clear Wireless LLC, and as Agent for property
owner Monteverde Condominium Association Inc., is requesting Conditional Use approval to allow
stealth rooftop antennas and related telecommunications equipment on top of an existing residential
building (Monteverde Condominiums) in Renaissance Commons. The subject property is located at
1605 Renaissance Commons Boulevard South (see Exhibit “A” – Site Location Map) and lies within the
Suburban Mixed Use (SMU) zoning district. The Monteverde condominiums were approved as Phase
V of Renaissance Commons and consist of a total of 447 units within two (2) separate six (6)-story
buildings at a maximum approved building height of 75 feet. The southern building was first
constructed and is the subject building for the proposed Clear Wireless facilities, and the northern
building is currently under construction.
PROPOSAL
The City’s Land Development Regulations (LDR) require that wireless telecommunication facilities, when located
in the SMU zoning district, are a conditional use and must be a stealth (camouflage) design. The
applicant, Clear Wireless, is a broadband internet service provider of high-speed 4G WIMAX. The
applicant has submitted a propagation map that graphically represents radio frequency (RF)
engineering data indicating a significant void in service coverage in the area of Gateway Boulevard and
Congress Avenue. Clear Wireless is proposing a total of four (4) rooftop locations for stealth
telecommunication antennas or related equipment on Building 2 of the southernmost Monteverde
condominium within Phase V of Renaissance Commons. The proposed locations are as follows: (1)
stealth antennas on the northwest corner of the building rooftop enclosed within the existing rooftop
tower feature; (2) stealth antennas on the southwest portion of the building rooftop enclosed within
the existing rooftop tower feature; (3) replacement of an existing light pole at the southwest corner of
the parking garage rooftop with a stealth light pole of the same height; and (4) a wall mounted
equipment cabinet located toward the center of the southwest roof area screened from view by
existing roof tower features (see Exhibit “B” – Site Plan). Each proposed stealth facility would be
architecturally integrated into the building, with the same building colors and architectural elements.
The subject six (6)-story building was approved to be a maximum height of 75 feet, and no height
exceptions or variances are allowed to this requirement per the SMU district regulations. The proposed
stealth facilities would not exceed the maximum building height of 75 feet.

NOTIFICATION
Owners of properties within 400 feet of the subject site plan were mailed a notice of this request and its
respective hearing dates. The applicant has certified that signage is posted and notices mailed in
accordance with Ordinance No. 04-007.
BACKGROUND
The City’s tower regulations are intended to minimize the visual effects of telecommunication towers
and antennas through careful location siting, site design, landscape screening, and innovative
camouflaging techniques. The regulations also encourage, as an alternative to additional towers, the
use of accessory rooftop antennas when necessary for proper service coverage in an area. When
properly sited and screened, rooftop wireless communication facilities have minimal impacts.
The proposed rooftop antennas would be located at Monteverde Condominiums in Phase V of
Renaissance Commons, zoned Suburban Mixed-Use (SMU). The SMU Zoning District regulations of
Chapter 2, Section 6.H. of the LDR allow telecommunication towers or antennas as a Conditional Use
and require a stealth design, or alternatively stated, integration into the architecture and/or structural
composition of the project. A stealth facility is defined by code as: “any telecommunications facility
which is designed to blend into the surrounding environment and which is incorporated into and is
compatible with uses otherwise permissible on site”. Examples of stealth facilities include, but are not
limited to, architecturally screened roof-mounted antennas, antennas integrated into architectural
elements, and telecommunication and/or personal wireless services towers designed to look like light
poles, power poles, clock towers, or trees.
The proposed stealth rooftop antennas would be an accessory use at the Monteverde Condominiums. The
proposed stealth design includes the placement of antennas and related equipment within two (2)
existing rooftop tower features that would be modified with radio frequency (RF) compliant material
painted to match the building. An existing light pole on the parking garage rooftop would be replaced
with antennas inside a stealth light pole of the same height and color. In addition, a proposed wall
mounted equipment cabinet would be located near the center of the southwest roof area within a
seven (7) foot by seven (7) foot lease area. The wall mounted equipment would be painted to match
the building color, and would be screened from view by proposed screen walls around the cabinet as
well as existing roof tower features.
224 of 342
Chapter 10. Section 5.B.1. of the LDR states that building rooftop stealth antennas shall only be permitted on
buildings which are at least 45 feet tall, and must be stealth or architecturally screened.
By locating stealth facilities on an existing building rooftop, the project will result in minimal disruption of the
aesthetic character of the area. Although stealth facilities contained within structural or architectural
features, such as clock towers, are preferred, a freestanding stealth tower, such as a monopole
designed as a tree, could be erected at a maximum height of 150 feet in the SMU district, and cause a
greater impact to the surrounding area. By locating on an existing building, the project would be the
least visually intrusive alternative to a freestanding stealth tower, for the project and the surrounding
area.
STANDARDS FOR EVALUATING CONDITIONAL USES
The City’s Land Development Regulations (LDR) require that wireless telecommunication facilities,
when located in the SMU zoning district, are a conditional use and must be a stealth (camouflage)
design. Section 11.2.D of the Zoning Code contains the following standards applicable to conditional
uses. Following each of these standards is Planning and Zoning staff’s evaluation of the application as
it is measured against the standards. The applicant has submitted a Justification Statement that
addresses these conditional use standards as well as the regulations for rooftop antennas and SMU
zoning district requirements for stealth wireless communications facilities (see Exhibit “C”). The
Planning and Development Board and City Commission shall consider only such conditional uses as
are authorized under the terms of these zoning regulations and, in connection therewith, may grant
conditional uses absolutely or conditioned upon the conditions including, but not limited to, the
dedication of property for streets, alleys, recreation space and sidewalks, as shall be determined
necessary for the protection of the surrounding area and the citizens' general welfare, or deny
conditional uses when not in harmony with the intent and purpose of this section. In evaluating an
application for conditional use, the Board and Commission shall consider the effect of the proposed use
on the general health, safety and welfare of the community and make written findings certifying that
satisfactory provision has been made concerning the following standards, where applicable:
1. Ingress and egress to the subject property and proposed structures thereon, with particular
reference to automobile and pedestrian safety and convenience, traffic flow and control, and access
in case of fire or catastrophe.
Ingress and egress to the site will remain unchanged. Access would be at the existing curb cuts for
the property utilizing existing parking and circulation patterns. However, the type of proposed use
and its rooftop location does not create unusual pedestrian or vehicle traffic patterns or volumes, as
this project generates no vehicular or pedestrian traffic. Access to the rooftop equipment would
occur infrequently for maintenance, thereby eliminating impact to adjacent properties. The
proposed rooftop antenna facilities are an accessory use that would not be accessible to the
general public.
2. Off-street parking and loading areas where required, with particular attention to the items in
subsection D.1. above, and the economic, glare, noise, and odor effects the conditional use will
have on adjacent and nearby properties, and the city as a whole.
The Land Development Regulations do not require any parking spaces for the proposed accessory
use. Technicians performing occasional maintenance on the rooftop antennas and equipment
would typically drive a single vehicle that could utilize a standard space in the existing parking
garage on site.
3. Refuse and service areas, with particular reference to the items in Subsection D.1. and D.2. above.
The rooftop antennas on site will generate no solid waste, therefore, no waste facilities or
receptacles are provided or are being required solely for this proposed project. Only authorized
225 of 342
personnel will be able to enter the roof area for servicing the proposed facilities, using existing site
access and parking.
4. Utilities, with reference to locations, availability, and compatibility.
Utility locations, availability, and compatibility would remain per the previously approved site plans.
The proposed project will not require the use of public services such as water or sewer, but will
require electric power. Existing utility services are adequate for the proposed project and are
designed in a manner that will not have an adverse impact on adjacent land uses or resources.
5. Screening, buffering and landscaping with reference to type, dimensions, and character.
The proposed equipment would be screened from view using stealth concealment of the antennas.
The proposed antennas at the northwest corner and southwest area of the building rooftop would
be enclosed within the existing rooftop tower features. The existing stucco material would be
replaced with a RF-friendly material that would have the same texture and color, giving the
appearance of unchanged rooftop tower features. The existing light pole on the southwest corner
of the parking garage would be replaced with a stealth light pole of the same height. Antennas
would be located within the stealth light pole, which would be constructed using RF-friendly
materials. The antennas would not be visible and would be fully screened. The wall mounted
equipment cabinet would be located near the center of the southwest roof area and would be
screened from view by proposed screen wall around the cabinet as well as existing roof tower
features, as evidenced by the line of sight analysis, photo simulations, and plans submitted.
6. Signs, and proposed exterior lighting, with reference to glare, traffic safety, economic effect, and
compatibility and harmony with adjacent and nearby properties.
Glare, traffic safety, economic effect, and compatibility with adjacent and nearby properties would
remain unchanged from the previously approved site plan. Signs and exterior lighting will remain
the same as the existing approved site plan. This conditional use request does not propose the
addition of new signage or lighting. The use of any portion of a wireless telecommunications facility
for signs or advertising purposes, including company name, banners, streamers, and the like, is
strictly prohibited by the Land Development Regulations. The existing light pole located on the
southwest corner of the parking garage would be replaced with a stealth light pole of the same
height. The existing light fixture would be re-used, so the photometrics will remain unchanged.
7. Required setbacks and other open spaces.
The LDR does not require setbacks for rooftop antennas. The proposed equipment is located
wholly on the rooftop, and does not impact setbacks or other open spaces. Existing building
setbacks and other open spaces would remain unchanged from the previously approved site plan.
8. General compatibility with adjacent properties, and other property in the zoning district.
In general, the proposed project is compatible with the immediate mixed uses in the area because it
is fully screened and concealed from view. The stealth facilities would be located within existing
architectural features and painted to match the building. Persons living or working on adjacent
properties would be largely unaware that the stealth facilities are located on the building.
9. Height of buildings and structures, with reference to compatibility and harmony to adjacent and
nearby properties, and the city as a whole.
The tower regulations state that stealth rooftop antennas may not exceed 20 feet above the
roofline, and may not exceed 10 feet above the maximum height of the zoning district. The SMU
district allows a maximum height of 55 feet. However, buildings between 55 feet and up to 75 feet
226 of 342
to the peak of the structure or any architectural details may be allowed only for interior buildings
(those buildings separated from property line by another project building or use), if approved as a
conditional use. Separation requirements from residential do not apply to building mounted or
rooftop antennas.
The subject building is part of Phase V of Renaissance Commons, and was approved as a
conditional use (limited to a maximum height of 75 feet). The proposed equipment installation will
not affect the existing approved height of any structures. Proposed antennas would be located
within existing rooftop features, and the existing light pole replaced with a stealth light pole of the
same height. The proposal is consistent with the design, siting, and review guidelines for
commercial antenna installation in that this project will be architecturally and visually integrated into
the existing building and painted to match the building color.
10. Economic effects on adjacent and nearby properties, and the city as a whole.
The proposed stealth rooftop antennas are not anticipated to have any negative economic effects
upon adjacent and nearby properties or the City as a whole. All proposed equipment would be
concealed or screened from view. The subject building would have rooftop equipment that would
provide improved wireless services to those living, working, and shopping in an underserved area in
terms of consistency and quality of internet data transmissions.
11. Conformance to the standards and requirements which apply to site plans, as set forth in Chapter 4
of the City of Boynton Beach Land Development Regulations.
Compliance of permit drawings with attached staff comments will provide conformance to the
above-referenced requirements. Clear Wireless will comply with all FCC rules governing
construction requirements, technical standards, interference protection, power and height
limitations, and radio frequency standards. In addition, Clear Wireless will comply with all FAA rules
on site location and operation.
12. Compliance with, and abatement of nuisances and hazards in accordance with the Performance
Standards in Section 4.N of Chapter 2; also, conformance to the City of Boynton Beach Noise
Control Ordinance, Chapter 15, Section 15.8 of the Boynton Beach Code of Ordinances.
The proposed equipment installation and operation would comply with the performance standards
of Section 4.N of Chapter 2 and the City’s Noise Control Ordinance. The equipment is required to
comply with FCC guidelines and would not create objectionable electromagnetic interference. It is
not anticipated that the proposed antennas would have any negative impacts upon the immediate
vicinity.
RECOMMENDATION
Based on the information contained herein, compliance with development regulations and conditional
use standards, as well as conformity with the intent of the tower regulations to minimize impacts on
adjacent properties, staff recommends APPROVAL of this request for Conditional Use, subject to
satisfying all conditions of approval recommended by staff as contained in Exhibit “D” – Conditions of

LDR Rewrite Project – Summary and Update of Changes
RE:
INTRODUCTION
In April of 2007, staff presented the Planning and Development Board and City Commission with a
progress report and proposed work schedule of the LDR Rewrite project, breaking the project down into
eight (8) different groups. Each group was approved in its draft format. Because of the length of time to
complete this process, staff has made numerous updates and changes to the proposed code subsequent to
its review by the Board and Commission. This staff report will generally summarize, by each group, the
more important changes that are proposed.
SUMMARY OF CHANGES
GROUP 1
Chapter 1, Article II (DEFINITIONS) – The article is proposed to be modified through the addition,
deletion, and revision of various terms and definitions.
1. Grouped all definitions pertaining to Wireless Communication Facilities (WCF) under
one (1) main heading. Definitions were updated to be consistent with the final version of the
corresponding standards in Chapter 3, Article V.
2. Deleted “Bolt Throw,” “Louvers,” “Multiple Point Lock,” “Opening,” “Single-Keyed
Dead Bolt,” and “Strike Plate;” these terms were removed from Part III LDR and relocated to
Part II Property Maintenance Requirements.
3. Retained “Changeable Copy Sign” because the code will regulate them more stringently.
4. Modified “Conventional Zoning District” by itemizing all the planned districts.
5. Retained “Day Spa” to support the definition of the use “personal care (beauty, hair,
nails),” which includes a reference to day spa.
6. Modified “Density,” tailoring it to the intent of the workforce housing program of
Chapter 1, Article V.
7. Modified the “Driveway” definitions by describing all the different driveway
classifications (i.e., minor, intermediate, major) that correspond with site development standards
applicable to each type.
8. Modified “Dwelling” definitions to differentiate between all unit types (e.g., Multi-
family, Two-family (duplex), townhouse, etc.).
234 of 342
9. Modified “Fortune Teller, Palm Reader, or Physic” to more clearly describe it by
including the following activities: astrology, numerology, card, tea reading, clairvoyance, and
crystal gazing.
10. Created a definition for “Greenway” to support the recommendations of the Greenways
and Bikeways Master Plan and other documents and publications.
11. Created a definition for “Industrial Zoning District,” which is a general term used in
certain land development regulations when describing, in part, the subject of an applicable site
development or separation standard. This definition will clarify that when the code refers to an
“Industrial Zoning District,” it pertains to both the M-1 and PID districts.
12. Modified “Janitorial and General Cleaning” to include a cross-reference to retail sales of
cleaning supplies to differentiate from “Cleaning Supply Stores.”
13. Created definition for “Manufactured Home” by referencing that such dwellings must
comply with the Manufactured Home Construction and Safety Standards of the U.S. Department
of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).
14. Created definition for “Miscellaneous Zoning District” by referencing the PU and REC
districts.
15. Created definition for “Mixed Use Zoning Districts” by referencing the SMU, MU-L1,
L2, L3, and MU-H districts.
16. Moved all definitions associated with “Mobile Vending Unit (MVU)” from the
supplemental zoning regulations to this section of code.
17. Redefined “Out-Patient, Mental Health, & Substance Abuse” to be represented by either
“Group Homes” or “Medical & Dental Office.”
18. Created definition for “Pervious Pavement” in conjunction with new provisions for storm
water management.
19. Modified “Planned Zoning District” to include the SMU, MU-L1, L2, L3, and MU-H
districts.
20. Modified “Residential Zoning District” to include the IPUD, PUD, and MHPD.
21. Created definition for “Erect” as it relates to signs and sign standards.
22. Renamed “Identification Sign” to “Read Door Identification Plaque” to better describe
the type of sign allowed under the respective provisions of the sign code.
23. Modified “Off-Premises Sign” to include signage located within rights-of-way.
24. Created definition for “Permanent Sign” to differentiate between it and a temporary sign.
Temporary signs are regulated less stringently than their permanent counterparts.
25. Deleted “Temporary Construction Sign” to eliminate redundancy with the respective
provisions in the sign code (Chapter 1, Article IV).
26. Created “Transit Sign.”
27. Deleted “Sign Area” because it would be described in the sign standards within Chapter
4, Article IV.
28. Modified “Sign Height” to expand the ways in which a freestanding sign would be
measured, depending upon zoning district and site characteristics.
29. Retained the definition of “Specimen Tree” and its corresponding provisions because
they are an integral part of the final tree preservation requirements of Chapter 1, Article II.
30. Created “Streestscape” to support applications within landscape code standards of
Chapter 4, Article II.
31. Created “Windmill, Aeration” consistent with the contents of interim ordinance No. 10-
010.
GROUP 2
Chapter 3, Articles I though IV
Article I (OVERVIEW)
235 of 342
1. Eliminated the reference to the zoning code amendment process because this type of
application has since been eliminated from the code (to prevent the misunderstanding that this is
a publically-initiated application process).
Article II (GENERAL PROVISIONS)
1. Enhanced the article by clarifying the on-site locations where safe-sight and visibility
standards are to be applied, such as near driveways of single-family and duplex homes as
determined by the City Engineer.
Article III (ZONING DISTRICTS AND OVERLAY ZONES)
1. Enhanced the article by expanding upon the purpose and intent descriptions for each
zoning district.
2. Created within Chapter 1, Article III (Relationship to Comprehensive Plan), a new matrix
identifying every future land use classification and corresponding zoning district.
3. Updated the Residential and Site Regulations tables of the entire article to reflect the
most current information and requirements.
4. Enhanced the entire article by including additional cross references regarding required
parking, landscaping, and applicable approval processes.
Article IV (USE REGULATIONS
1. Enhanced the general rules by indicating that “all business shall be conducted within a
fully enclosed building, unless otherwise specified” (to ensure the orderly and aesthetic use of
property in accordance with the land development regulations).
2. Enhanced the legend by explaining the existence of a Permitted Use list for each PID,
which would contain allowable uses specific to each PID independent of the Use Matrix.
3. Changed the demarcation of prohibited uses by using a blank cell rather than an “X”, per
recommendation of the Board.
4. Enhanced the Residential and Lodging category by creating a use named “Accessory
Dwelling Unit”, and specifying that it is allowed in the C-1 and C-2 districts, in accordance with
current code.
5. Enhanced the Residential and Lodging category by creating a use named “Live-Work
Unit” and specifying that they are allowed in the mixed use districts, in accordance with current
code.
6. Enhanced the Residential and Lodging category by creating the use “Townhouse,” and
regulating them in the same manner as other multi-family dwellings.
7. Enhanced the Commercial (Retail Sales) category by creating the use “Cleaning Supply
Store (Swimming Pool, Janitorial)” and specifying the districts where they are allowed.
8. Enhanced the Commercial (Retail Sales) category by modifying the following uses so
that they would be regulated in the MU-L1 district, similar to the other mixed use districts: 1)
Cleaning Supply Store (Swimming Pool, Janitorial); 2) Novelty, Gift, Souvenir, &
Miscellaneous; 3) Office Supplies & Stationery; 4) Specialty Food Store; 5) Pharmacy & Drug
Store; and 6) Pet Store & Supplies. With exception of cleaning supply stores, all the
aforementioned uses would be regulated more stringently in the MU-H district with respect to
their maximum allowable size.
9. Enhanced the Commercial (Services) category by modifying “Bar and Nightclub” so that
it would be regulated more stringently in the MU-H district with respect to maximum allowable
size.
236 of 342
10. Enhanced the Commercial (Services) category by modifying “Dry Cleaners” to allow on-
site cleaning and laundering activities in the mixed use districts, in accordance with the recent
code amendment.
11. Enhanced the Commercial (Services) category by creating the use “Fortune Teller, Palm
Reader, or Psychic” and specifying the corresponding zoning district.
12. Enhanced the Commercial (Services) category by creating the use “Mobile Vending Unit
(MVU)” and specifying the districts where they are allowed. In accordance with current code.
13. Enhanced the Commercial (Services) category so that in the MU-L1 district, “Personal
Care (Beauty, Hair, Nails),” “Travel Agency,” “Tuxedo, Formal Wear, Costume Rental,” and
“Videos, Games & DVD Rental” uses would be regulated similar to other mixed use districts,
and more stringently in the MU-H district with respect to their maximum allowable size.
14. Enhanced the Commercial (Services) category by making the use “Pet Care (Boarding
and Daycare)” a permitted use in the M-1 district rather than a conditional use. The notes for
this use were also updated in accordance with the recently approved code amendment.
15. Enhanced the Commercial (Services) category so that in the MU-L1 district, “Pet Care
(Grooming),” “Pet Care (Veterinary Services),” “Photography Studio,” and “Repair /
Maintenance, Personal and Household Goods” uses would be regulated similar as if located in
the other mixed use districts. The Pet Care uses would have special restrictions with respect to
kenneling, location, and required separation.
16. Enhanced the Commercial (Services) category by modifying the uses “Restaurant” and
“Take Out Restaurant” by allowing them in the M-1 district as a permitted use but with special
limitations on size and location consistent with current code.
17. Enhanced the Office and Health Care category by modifying the following uses so that
they would be regulated similarly throughout all the mixed use districts, but more stringently in
the MU-H district with respect to maximum allowable size: 1) Bank and Financial Office; 2)
Business or Professional Office; 3) Copying, Printing, and Sign Design; 4) Counseling; 5) Diet /
Nutrition Center; 6) Investigative Service; 7) Temporary Employment Agency; 8) Medical or
Dental Office; 9) Real Estate Business; and 10) Medical or Dental Imaging / Testing. In
addition, Medical or Dental Imaging / Testing uses would be permitted in the mixed use districts
rather than conditional as previously approved to expedite the approval process.
18. Enhanced the Public and Civic category by modifying the use called “Cemetery” so it
would be allowed in commercial districts as an accessory use to a funeral home on properties
that are 10 acres or larger.
19. Enhanced the Educational category by allowing the use “Daycare” in the M-1 district to
provide extra convenience to the employees who work in industrial areas as well as for the
residents of the neighboring areas.
20. Modified the restrictions of “Convenience Store” to include location requirements and
size limitations in the M-1 district consistent with the current M-1 corridor standards.

were subsequently created / eliminated by staff (e.g., certification of conformity, lot line
modification, excavation permit).
2. Relocated section pertaining to the pre-application conference to Chapter 2, Article II.
Article II (PLANNING AND ZONING DIVISION SERVICES)
1. Enhanced the article by indicating all the applications that are subject to the required pre-
application meeting with staff.
2. Eliminated the adequate public facilities review criterion from the annexation application
(this review is conducted in connection with other types of applications).
3. Eliminated the reversion clause from the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map
(FLUM) amendment process, recognizing the merit of the original approval, cost and time
associated with the amendment process; and the complexity and cost added to the amendment
process if Amendment #4 passes. Furthermore, the state does not recognize a “reversion” of a
FLUM amendment as a separate process and therefore requires the same thorough analyses as
any amendment. Finally, initial staff research indicates that few, if any municipalities include a
reversionary provision as part of their amendment process.
4. Enhanced the rezoning application to include the new review criterion “sustainability.”
5. Eliminated the revocation provision from the master plan process because it was deemed
to be unnecessary.
240 of 342
6. Modified the vacation and abandonment process to provide documentation on the
ultimate allocation of the affected land (e.g., equal split; unequal split; one-way allocation).
7. Eliminated the clearing and grubbing permit process consistent with its consolidation
under the land development permit, to be administered by the Engineering Division.
8. Formalized the zoning verification process with an application to facilitate and guide
public inquires on zoning-related matters and staff’s approval process.
Article III (ENGINEERING DIVISION SERVICES)
1. Enhanced the land development application by including clearing and grubbing activities
within its scope and review. This application would also require the submittal of a stormwater
pollution prevention plan (SPPP), Erosion and Sedimentation Control (ESC) plan, or Native
Florida Ecosystem Survey or Inventory, when applicable.
2. Updated the regulations pertaining to the land development permit to require the
landscape plan to illustrate trash receptacles, bicycle racks, and benches.
SUMMARY / RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends the Board and Commission approve the draft updates that were made to the entire
code. Any changes recommended by the Board and the Commission will be incorporated into the
document or schedule for ultimate consideration at time of adoption.

PROPOSED ORDINANCE NO. 10-026 - FIRST
EQUESTED CTION BY ITY OMMISSION
READING - Approve Pain Management Clinics (CDRV 10-007) code review to amend the Land
Development Regulations to include restrictions on the direct dispensing of certain pain medications and
references to new state laws applicable to the approval and operation of pain clinics, pain management
clinics and other uses that dispense pain medications. Applicant: City initiated.
PROPOSED ORDINANCE NO. 10-027 - FIRST READING - Approve Pain Management Clinics
(CDRV 10-007) code review to amend the Land Development Regulations to include a definition, and
operational requirements applicable to pharmacies and drug stores in connection with the warranted
control over the dispensing of certain pain medications by pain clinics, pain management clinics and
other uses that dispense pain medications. Applicant: City initiated.
ER:
The City Commission approved Resolution No. R10-020 on
XPLANATION OF EQUEST
February 2, 2010 thereby issuing a Notice of Intent (NOI) to consider the need for, and adopt
pending development regulations under a 180-day moratorium period applicable to pain
clinics, pain management clinics and other uses that dispense prescription pain medications.
Staff reviewed information from similar regulations previously adopted by other municipalities,
and monitored progress and direction of the ongoing efforts of task forces established in both
Palm Beach and Broward Counties. Contributing information was also obtained from a report
from the Broward County Grand Jury and newly adopted state law. After considering possible
alternatives, staff proposes regulations similar to those adopted in Delray Beach and by at
least one other municipality in the County. This similarity will allow the city to easily benefit
from the lessons learned from these other cities with respect to both changes in pain clinic
operations and necessary subsequent code amendments. As staff has previously indicated,
there currently is no perfect ordinance to address this problem. The problems represented by
244 of 342
the targeted pain clinics are dynamic, as represented by the fact that Delray Beach, one of the
first cities to adopt pain clinic regulations, has amended their respective regulations three times
since original adoption in late 2009. The City will continue to monitor pain clinic operations, will
stay involved or networked with county-wide efforts in Palm Beach and Broward Counties, and
monitor subsequent actions taken at the State level. Warranted amendments to City
regulations are anticipated and would be processed timely.
The proposed changes to existing Zoning Regulations are summarized as follows:
(Proposed Ordinance No. 10-026)
1. References added to effected zoning uses describing the corresponding supplemental
regulations;
2. Purpose and intent narratives for proper foundation and documentation;
3. The prohibition of directly dispensing controlled substances listed in Schedule II, III, or
IV of Florida Law, and exemptions to the prohibitions to avoid unintended affects on
legitimate medical care and treatment;
(Proposed Ordinance No. 10-027)
4. A definition of pharmacy & drug store (to emphasize them being retail stores rather than
just businesses that sell prescription pain medications, and to appropriately exempt
facilities such as hospitals); and
5. Operational standards for pharmacies including a maximum limit on proportion of pain
medications to be sold, in defense against this known strategy for circumventing pain
clinic regulations.
The Planning & Development Board reviewed the subject code amendments and forwards
them with a recommendation of approval.

ORDINANCE NO. 10-____
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY
OF BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA, AMENDING THE LAND
DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS OF THE CITY OF
BOYNTON BEACH, BY AMENDING CHAPTER 2, ITEMS
6.A.1.G, 6.A.1.I, AND 6.A.1.J. BY ADDING REFERENCES TO
THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE NEW SUBSECTION 11.R;
AND BY AMENDING CHAPTER 2, SECTION 11,
“SUPPLEMENTAL REGULATIONS”, BY ADDING THE NEW
SUBSECTION “R”, “MEDICAL, PROFESSIONAL, BUSINESS
OFFICES AND CLINICS”; TO PROVIDE FOR
CLARIFICATION REGARDING THE APPLICABILITY OF
CERTAIN STATE STATUTES; PROVIDING A SAVING
CLAUSE, A GENERAL REPEALER CLAUSE, AND AN
EFFECTIVE DATE.
WHEREAS,
pursuant to Article VII, Section 2 of the Florida Constitution and Chapter 166 of
the Florida Statutes, the City Commission of the City of Boynton Beach (the “City Commission”) is
authorized and required to protect the public health, safety and welfare of its citizens; and
WHEREAS
, the City Commission has the power and authority to enact regulations pertaining to
land use and development within the City and for valid governmental purposes that are not inconsistent
with general or special law; and
WHEREAS,
at the Florida Board of Medicine (the “Board”) Meeting in December, 2008 at
Tampa, Florida, the Board cited the “rapid proliferation of pain clinics that may be contributing to
increased abuse of controlled substances,” and concluded “there may be a need to develop rules and
regulations for these clinics to provide oversight related to evaluation and follow up of these difficult
patients and help physicians identify persons not seeking care but just pill shopping for narcotics;” and
WHEREAS
,the Board further notes that “an average of 7 patients a day are reported as dying of
prescription drug overdose in Florida, a number that far exceeds the number dying from illegal drug
use”; and
WHEREAS
, the U. S. Department of Health and Human Services has released data showing
prescription drug deaths are now the fourth leading cause of death in the United States; and
WHEREAS
, the City Commission finds that the fraudulent sale, use, and delivery of controlled
substances is a threat to the health, safety and welfare of the residents of the City; and
WHEREAS,
the City Commission has recently been made aware by law enforcement and news
reports that a pattern of illegal drug use and distribution has been associated with pain management
clinics in neighboring municipalities, which dispense on-site narcotic drugs; and
WHEREAS
, the City Commission has also been made aware of numerous newspaper stories in
the recent past describing a “pipeline” of trafficking drugs from South Florida pain management clinics
to users in other states, such as Kentucky, West Virginia, and Ohio; and
246 of 342
WHEREAS
, the threat of increased crime associated with such clinics, is very significant and
could undermine the economic health of the City’s development and redevelopment efforts; and
WHEREAS
, the Florida Legislature has attempted to deter such drug use, distribution and
activities by the creation of a secure and privacy-protected, statewide electronic system of monitoring
prescription drug medication information, to encourage safer controlled substance prescription decisions
and to reduce the number of prescription drug overdoses, deaths and related crimes; and
WHEREAS
, it is the intent of this ordinance not to interfere with the legitimate medical use of
controlled substances, but rather to prohibit the location of dispensing of narcotic drugs on site at
medical offices, to the extent permitted by law; and
WHEREAS
, in the absence of regulations identifying where narcotic drugs may be dispensed,
the City’s residents, visitors and businesses are more vulnerable to criminal actions, despite the
provision of law enforcement services; and
WHEREAS,
the City staff is recommending amendments to the Land Development
Regulations that restrict the dispensing of narcotic drugs on sight at medical offices in the City of
Boynton Beach, to the extent permitted by law; and
WHEREAS,
the City Commission has considered staff’s recommendations and reports and
determines and finds that it would be appropriate to amend the Land Development Regulations to reflect
these amendments; and
WHEREAS
, the City Commission finds that the adoption of this Ordinance is in the best interest
of the health, safety and welfare of the citizens and residents of the City of Boynton Beach.

R. CERTAIN MEDICAL, PROFESSIONAL AND BUSINESS OFFICES AND
CLINICS:
1. Purpose and Intent. These regulations are in connection with the mass
effort to discourage the misuse and abuse of narcotics and other controlled substances
such as pain medications, and the impacts upon land uses that are associated with
businesses that would operate principally to dispense pain medications for chronic pain
but without the services of typical medical offices that provide thorough on-site
examinations, medical treatments or procedures, and continued medical oversight. Such
businesses have been determined to be associated with the excessive use of, addictions to,
and subsequent illegal sales/distribution of addictive controlled substances.
2. Applicability. This section applies to all medical, professional and
business offices and clinics. Such uses shall be subject to the following:
a. On-site dispensing of controlled substances that are identified in
Schedule II, III, or IV in Sections 893.03, 893.035 or 893.036, Florida Statutes, is
prohibited, unless otherwise expressly permitted by statutory or general law. The
following are exempt from this prohibition:
1. A health care practitioner when administering a controlled
substance directly to a patient if the amount of the controlled substance is
adequate only intended to treat the patient during that particular treatment
session.
2. A pharmacist or health care practitioner when
administering a controlled substance to a patient or resident receiving care
as a patient at a hospital, nursing home, ambulatory surgical center,
hospice, or intermediate care facility for the developmentally disabled
which is licensed in this state.
3. A health care practitioner when administering a controlled
substance in the emergency room of a licensed hospital.
4. A health care practitioner when administering or dispensing
a controlled substance to a person under the age of 16.
5. A health care practitioner when dispensing a one-time, 72-
hour emergency resupply of controlled substance to a patient.
3. Enforcement
a. Law enforcement officers shall, in connection with their duties
imposed by law, diligently enforce the provisions of this Section and may issue
citations, arrest and arrest with warrant persons acting in violation of this Section.
b. Law enforcement officers shall have the authority to seize,
confiscate and impound any substance, or other article which, upon probable
cause, they find to be used or possessed in violation of this Section.
c. The City may prosecute violations by issuance of Notices to
Appear for violation of a CITY Ordinance, in which case, the penalty for a
violation shall be as follows:
248 of 342
1.First violation - $100.00
2.Second violation within twelve (12) months of adjudication
of first violation - $500.00
3.Third violation within eighteen (18) months of adjudication
of first violation - $1000.00
Each calendar day on which a violation exists shall constitute a separate violation
for the purpose of determining the fine.
d. A violation of this Section may be prosecuted as a nuisance. The
City Attorney may bring suit on behalf of the City, or any affected citizen may
bring suit in his/her name against the person or persons causing or maintaining the
violation, or against the owner/agent of the building or property on which the
violation exists. Relief may be granted according to the terms and conditions of
Chapter 15, Article 8 of the City of Boynton Beach Code of Ordinances and/or
Chapter 60, Florida Statutes, entitled Abatement of Nuisances.
e. Any person convicted of violating any of the terms or provisions of
this article or any code, requirements, or standards adopted hereby shall be subject
to the penalties as provided in Chapter 1, Section 1-6 of the City of Boynton
Beach Code of Ordinances. In addition, the City may use any equitable or legal
remedy available at law to enforce any violation of the terms or provisions of this
Section.
Section 4. Each and every other provision of the Land Development Regulations not
specifically amended herein, shall remain in full force and effect as originally adopted.
Section 5. That should any section or provision of this ordinance or any portion thereof, any
paragraph, sentence, or word be declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, such
decision shall not affect the validity of the remainder of this ordinance as a whole or part thereof other
than the part declared to be invalid.
Section 6. That all ordinances or parts of ordinances in conflict herewith be, and the same
are hereby repealed.
Section 7. Authority is hereby given to codify this ordinance.
Section 8. That this ordinance shall become effective immediately upon its passage on
second and final reading.

Review and discuss supplemental property tax impact
EQUESTED CTION BY ITY OMMISSION
study as prepared by City staff.
ER:
As a follow-up to a question from Commissioner Holzman at the
XPLANATION OF EQUEST
2010-2011 Budget Meeting, staff obtained comparative property tax value data from the Palm
Beach County Property Appraiser’s Office. There were two basic objectives of the study:
1. Determine how land uses affect taxable value – specifically how does commercial and
industrially used property contribute to the overall tax base of the City.
2. Compare how Boynton Beach’s tax base compares with other larger communities in
Palm Beach County in terms of overall taxable value and the allocation of taxable value
to specific land uses. The comparative communities were: Boca Raton, Delray Beach,
Lake Worth, Palm Beach Gardens, Riviera Beach and West Palm Beach. For example,
Boca Raton’s taxable value is almost five times Boynton Beach’s taxable value. Delray
Beach has almost twice the taxable value of Boynton Beach. Boynton Beach offers
many of the same services and programs as these other two cities. Citizen expectation
for these services is high but the tax base to support these services lags behind Boca
Raton and Delray Beach.
H?
Property tax revenue represents 32% of
OW WILL THIS AFFECT CITY PROGRAMS OR SERVICES
the General Fund revenues or $22.2M of $68.5M. Therefore the impact of taxable value is of
concern to the City. In 2009, the overall taxable value of the City was $4.88 B and in 2010, the
taxable value for the entire City dropped to $3.63 B, a reduction of 15.28%. Historically, the
City’s taxable value for the past six years is as follows:
256 of 342
2010 $3.63B
2009 $4.88B
2008 $5.5B
2007 $6.1B
2006 $5.5B
2005 $4.2B
The City’s taxable value peaked in 2006. Careful monitoring of taxable values, particularly for
commercial and industrial property is warranted. In addition, future land use decisions should
include tax impact analysis based on projected land use and anticipated cost of municipal
services.
FI:
The report has the following basic results:
ISCAL MPACT
COMMENTS ON TAX BASE SUMMARY TABLES
PER CAPITA TAXABLE VALUE
• The City’s Per Capita Taxable Value, at $53,838, is the second lowest among the
selected municipalities, with Lake Worth being the lowest at $30,425. It is also significantly
lower than the value for Palm Beach County as a whole. Per Capita Taxable Commercial
Value for the City is higher than the county’s number, but also lower than numbers for all other
municipalities with the exception of Lake Worth.
COMMERCIAL
• Boynton’s Average Taxable Value for improved commercial properties lags behind the
county average, but is the third highest among the selected municipalities, after Boca Raton
and Palm Beach Gardens, which both contain upscale regional shopping malls. Moreover, the
fact that the “average” rather than the “median” value is used distorts the total picture
(available data for other municipalities limits the options).
• The City has a lot of new commercial properties built since 2004, and these properties
are the ones most negatively affected in the current recession. Once the vacancy rates
decrease, the taxable values should increase significantly.
• The Boynton’s commercial properties account for only 3.8% of all parcels, but almost
1/3 of the total taxable value. This does reflect the high average value of a commercial
property in the City, but is also a result of the very high ratio of average commercial to
residential value in the City (the highest among the municipalities and more than twice the ratio
for the county as a whole).
RESIDENTIAL
• Boynton has a very low average residential taxable value, the second lowest after Lake
Worth (but, see the comment about “average”). The City has the highest percentage of parcels
in residential uses, but the third lowest share of residential in the total taxable value.
• In particular, the City has a large inventory of older, low-value condominiums. Again,
only Lake Worth Average Taxable Value per condo is lower.
257 of 342
• The taxable value of residential properties constitutes only 69% of the market value of
these properties. This reflects the high percentage of owner-occupied units and, consequently,
a large amount of value tied in the homesteaded properties.
General Comments:
In terms of net benefit for the City, the revenue generated by residential, commercial and other
uses (including revenues other than ad-valorem taxes) has to be compared with the cost of
service provision – expenses created by a particular use. It is generally perceived that
residential uses have negative fiscal impact as opposed to commercial uses; however, it
depends on the type and value of the property and, possibly, some other factors, such as
demographic profile of residents (for example, a 1999 study for Polk county, Florida, showed
that residential uses generated 50.5% of revenues, but accounted for 93.2% of expenses’.
Also, the economic impact of commercial properties; – job generation and improved access to
goods and services - needs to be considered.
A special thank you is extended to Hanna Matras, Senior Planner for her research work on this
project.

EQUESTED CTION BY ITY OMMISSION
with REG Architects, staff's #1 ranked firm as a result of RFQ 068-1210-10/TH for "Historic High School
Redevelopment Services".
ER:
At the July 13, 2010 Boynton Beach Community Redevelopment
XPLANATION OF EQUEST
Agency (CRA) meeting, the CRA Board approved a motion to encumber $52,000 of CRA
funds for consulting services for the redevelopment of the historic high school. The funds were
encumbered for a period of four months contingent on subsequent approval of a tri-party
agreement between the City, the CRA, and a to-be-named consultant.
At the August 3, 2010 City Commission meeting, the City Commission approved the issuance
of a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) for Historic High School Redevelopment Services.
Based on discussions of the Commission at this meeting, staff prepared an RFQ seeking a
consultant to be creative in offering solution(s) for a Historic High School Redevelopment. The
specific tasks the Commission desired to be included in the RFQ were:
1) Tie all previous structural evaluations of the building together with a summary
update of expected costs in 2010-2011 for basic renovation.
2) Through a public engagement process, identify a list of prospective uses including
private organizations, non-profit organizations civic uses.
3) Prepare an evaluation of funding mechanisms for the refurbishment and adaptive
reuse including the use of New Market Tax Credits, Historic Preservation Tax
credits, foundation or grant funding and conventional bonding or refurbishment
costs. The evaluation shall contain an estimate of fiscal impact, if any to the City
through evaluation of partnership opportunities. The analysis will also present a
268 of 342
recommended program to the City for uses, ownership vs. lease options, financing
and building management cost estimates.
4) Prepare an implementation time-line with critical project items and assignment of
responsible parties.
The RFQs were due back on September 7, 2010. The City received responses from six (6)
firms, all of which were deemed responsive to the RFQ. In addition, there were two (2) “No
Bid(s)” received. The Tabulation Sheet is attached.
A review committee of three (3) staff members reviewed the responses. Those committee
members were: Lori LaVerriere, Assistant City Manager; Quintus Greene, Director of
Development and Jeff Livergood, Director of Public Works. Each member evaluated the
proposals based on the evaluation criteria and possible points for each criterion that was
included in the RFQ package. The individual evaluations were then returned to Tim Howard,
Deputy Director of Finance, who compiled them to arrive at a summary evaluation and ranking.
The Evaluation Form Summary lists rankings and notes the top three ranked firms.
The review committee ranked REG as the top respondent. Although REG’s response included
more services than what was specifically indentified in the RFQ, staff evaluated the proposal
based only on the four items listed above. Negotiations will limited to those four tasks.
H?
The goal of this proposal is to develop a
OW WILL THIS AFFECT CITY PROGRAMS OR SERVICES
strategy and direction to advance the redevelopment of the historic high school site.
FI:
Assuming that a negotiated agreement for services does not exceed the
ISCAL MPACT
CRA’s allocation of $52,000, there will be no fiscal impact on the City. The negotiated
agreement will returned to the City Commission for review and will be based on the tasks as
approved by the City Commission on August 3, 2010.
A:
Not approve the negotiation of this contract.

approval to purchase five (5) properties located between S.W. 1and 2 Avenues, and S.W. 3 Street.
Only three (3) of the properties are contiguous. One lot not associated with these properties is
separating an additional lot, while a second corner parcel (0010) was recently purchase by Lamar
Realty Corporation. These lots, which have Code Enforcement liens and delinquent taxes which must
be paid, were, until October 5, 2010, owned by Peter Wolofsky. Mr. Wolofsky offered to convey title to
the City of Boynton Beach in lieu of payment of fines due to the City
H?
The subject properties are a little less than an

acre and all lots meet City of Boynton Beach land development regulations. The property is not located
within the Community Redevelopment Area.
The subject properties are currently a burden upon the City of Boynton Beach since Mr. Wolofsky has
not maintained these properties. This makes it burdensome to the Code Enforcement Division.
FI:
There is currently a total of $22,836.64 in delinquent taxes plus interest. In addition,
ISCAL MPACT
there are City of Boynton Beach Code Enforcement liens certified in 2007 in excess of $5,400.00, plus
municipal liens for mowing the property.
Pursuing the acquisition of this property at this time would be for the purpose of having it available for
the future development of affordable housing that would ultimately add positively to the tax roll.
However, it is uncertain as to how long this process would take given the current housing market.
It should be noted that 0n October 5, 2010 a tax deed on these properties was issued to Mia Real
Holdings LLC. However, it may still be possible for the City to acquire the property.
