Boynton Beach Boulevard Boynton Beach, FL 33435 Dear Historic Preservation Ad Hoc Committee Members, Your support for the protection of the historic TradeWinds Estate West from incursion of traffic due to the 24-hour Walmart being constructed on Gulfstream Boulevard (and bordering Federal Highway and North Old Dixie Highway) would be greatly appreciated. Enclosed is a Sun-Sentinel article dated Sunday, February 14,2010, concerning Walmart's proposal of our segment of North Old Dixie Highway as a delivery route. Fortunately, Walmart representatives have agreed to reconsider this decision. However, traffic problems will prevail due to drivers of smaller trucks and customer vehicles using this road as a shortcut. The reasons that protection is required are the following: *the absence of a median strip to designate the lanes; *pull-in parking in front of virtually all the residences, thus requiring subsequent backing up onto the roadway; *the absence of sidewalks; *a route used by residents in nearby condominiums and houses to the bus on Federal Highway and its use for a leisurely stroll; *the absence of street lights; *a fairly recent fatality at a dangerous curve in the road and a near fatality close to the curve; *the challenge to policing due to the involvement of two different jurisdictions (Palm Beach County, Unincorporated, and Boynton Beach); *the use by waste management trucks four days a week (Mondays and Thursdays for Palm Beach County-and Tuesdays and Fridays for Boynton Beach); *continual traffic noise and disruption due to Walmart's 24 hours of operation; and *possible damage to the roadway due to heavy and incessant use. In short, the historic character of the neighborhood would be ruined by the incursion of heavy traffic. Furthermore, the community members would be placed at risk due to traffic and crime. Not only would property values plummet, but also the residents' quality of life would suffer. Suggestions that Trade Winds Estate residents would make to the appropriate authorities include the following: *"Local Traffic Only" signs; *speed bumps; *circles; and *dead end just beyond Miller Road. We would welcome a letter of support from you that, we are certain, would carry some weight with the the transportation agencies. Thank you for your consideration of this matter. Yours truly, ~~ Linda Stabile LLSTABILE@GMAIL.COM 3811 Wall Street Delray Beach, FL 33483 561-665-0341 , J~ ~ I M ~ ~' ~ ~ ..;: .. e "'{l ~ :e ;: ~ t ~ ~ ~ ~ :~ I I I I ~.

' ; . . < '"# f ~ I I I The 13oynton Beach City Commission recognizes the importance of preserving historic resources and on October 13, 2009 established an ad hoc Committee for Historic Preservation to formulate a recommendation for I creating a historic preservation ordinance to assist in this effort. The ad hoc Committee has adopted the Mission StatJment, "Boynton Beach will foster an atmosphere that preserves and promotes reverence for the I architectural and cultural history of our community". . : Thl Benefits for the City to pursue historic preservation include: I { Historic resources allow the education of present and future generations of their place in time in the I human experience and society. The purpose of historic preservation is not to halt growth or change, because it is generally recognized that both are needed to keep a community strong and viable. The purpose of historic preservation is to integrate the past with the present and future. . I Maintaining a sense of time and place, that is important to citizens of all ages. Promoting the unique history of the City-of Boynton Beach through the remaining built environment, could help establish a basis of tradition for the future of the City. I 1 I I I i . I I Establishment of landmarks create a focus for civic pride and an anchor to stabilize aging neighborhoods. Old housing styles and traditions are restored, providing a sense of community and feeling of importance. Improving livability and capitalizing on community traditions. Maintaining historic structures and developing plans for restoration and adaptive reuse help make a neighborhood more livable, while continuing to build on traditions. of a community. . I I 1 Increasing property values and tax base. Contrary to some thought, preservation is not anti-development. Tax law does allow some benefit for rehabilitation of eligible structures. Increasing tourisI!1 and business vitality. Historic sites hold special appeal for out of town visitors. Historic Assets: Many people view historic preservation as a method to preserve the character and livability of neighborhoods and strengthen civic pride. Historic resources are the non-renewable, visible remains of the past. Once they are lost they can never be replaced. It has been said, "The greenest building, is an existing building". The City had a survey of historical resources conducted in 1996. The survey revealed four major architectural styles of historic homes: Frame Vernacular, Mission Style, Mediterranean Revival and Masonry Vernacular. Wood Frame Vernacular houses are typically built on stone or masonry piers and generally have a raised front porch. These tend to be the oldest structures and comprise approximately 46% of the historic structures documented in the survey. Mission Style, inspired by Spanish architecture, was the second most prevalent structure type, at 28%, and is generally characterized by flat roofs, wood or block walls covered with smooth or rough stucco, and arched openings. Mediterranean Revival was the third most common style at 10%, and has influences from Spanish, Italian, North African and Moorish design. It is commonly adorned with applied ornamentation, carved decorations, twisted columns, decorative tiles and terra cotta tile roofs of either hip or gable design. Lastly, Masonry Vernacular comprised 3% of the surveyed structures, and were typically constructed of concrete block, hollow clay tile or oolitic limestone, with composition shingle hip or gable roofs. How to get involved: You may live in one of these structures, or next door to one of those listed in the historic survey. Would you like to know more about the structures, how to preserve a part of history, or what you can do to get involved? The Historic Preservation ad hoc Committee meets monthly to discuss the necessary steps to a preservation ordinance, including the benefits and necessary regulations. These meetings are open to the public and advertised on the City's web site, BBTV, City News Blog, Twitter and postings at City Hall. Interested in learning more? Consider attending these meetings to share your opinions and get your questions answered. However, if you are unable to attend, send your questions to the Planning and Zoning Division of the Development Department in writing or via e-mail and they will be forwarded to the Committee.
