Horace B. Murray, Sr. came to the Boynton settlement on January 6, 1896 from Bailey,
Michigan. Murray and his wife Mary raised 10 children in Boynton with a canvas tent in the
scrub serving as their first home. Murray, a building contractor, served as Major Nathan S.
Boynton’s construction supervisor on Boynton’s oceanfront hotel. Murray built many of the
early frame homes in Boynton, and the first bridge across the Intracoastal canal, a wooden swing
bridge at the present day Ocean Avenue.
On December 10, 1897, Mary Murray purchased two lots for $25 each from Byrd Spilman
Dewey in the original Town of Boynton plat, making the Murray family Boynton’s first family.
The Murray home, built partially from lumber of the 1909 Coquimbo shipwreck cargo, still
stands today on SE 3rd Street, a fine example of frame vernacular construction. Mr. Murray
served the public in many roles, including serving on the County Board of Public Instruction
from 1910-1916. In 1921, Horace B. Murray, Sr. served as the first elected mayor of the
incorporated Town of Boynton, beating Harry Benson. The vote was 47 to 31.
th
On October 24th and 25, 2014, descendants of Horace B. Murray, Sr. are convening in Boynton
Beach, Florida to celebrate their family’s history in the town.
Now, therefore
, I, Jerry Taylor, by virtue of the authority vested in me as Mayor of the City of
Boynton Beach, Florida, proclaim October 24, 2014 as
Horace B. Murray, Sr. Day
in honor of Boynton’s first family.
In witness whereof

Dow NF90-400 in the 1 stage and Dow NF270-400 in the 2 stage, and have been in
operation for over 10 years. The City wishes to evaluate when the elements should be
replaced and if an alternate NF element should be considered for water quality, energy
and fouling/life characteristics. As such, MWH is being assigned task order U-2A-01 to
prepare a Technical Memorandum for the City detailing their recommendations on the
aforementioned basis.
MWH’s professional services were approved under RFQ 017-2821-14/DJL by

In 2010 the City and the Schoolhouse Museum entered into

a management agreement to formally define the operation and maintenance of the
Schoolhouse Museum. This year the City increased its contribution to the Museum by
$148,589 for a total of $336,444 for FY 14/15. Staff recommends that the Museum
provide a quarterly report on operations to the Commission. The revised agreement
states such and the report will be placed on the City Commission agenda for review by
the City Commission. Additionally, the old agreement specifically identified what the
City’s appropriation was to be used for, i.e. personnel costs. The increased
appropriation by the City will not be specifically for personnel. It is intended to assist
with overall operational expenses. The amended agreement reflects this change.
Further, the revised agreement states the City’s distribution of funds will be on a
quarterly basis by letter of request from the Museum management.

PROPOSED ORDINANCE NO. 14-013 -
EQUESTED CTION BY ITY OMMISSION
SECOND READING - PUBLIC HEARING - Approve High Ridge Landing PUD rezoning (REZN
14-002) from a PUD (Planned Unit Development) with the Master Plan for 110 single-family
homes, to a PUD to be combined with adjacent property to the north, establishing a Master Plan
consisting of 184 apartments, the Imagine Charter School and athletic fields, located at the NW
corner of High Ridge Road and Miner Road. Applicant: Ron Roan, High Ridge Housing, LLC.
(TABLED TO 11/5/14)
PROPOSED ORDINANCE NO. 14-014 - SECOND READING - PUBLIC HEARING - Approve
High Ridge Landing PUD rezoning (REZN 14-002) from R-2 (Single and Two-Family Residential
District) to a PUD to be combined with adjacent property to the south establishing a new Master
Plan consisting of 184 apartments, the Imagine Charter School and athletic fields, located at the
NW corner of High Ridge Road and Minor Road. Applicant: Ron Roan, High Ridge Housing,
LLC. (TABLED TO 11/5/14)
ER:
The proposed rezoning would recreate a PUD (Planned Unit
XPLANATION OF EQUEST
Development) zoning originally placed on the subject property in 2005, after it was
annexed to the City. The PUD was initially approved for 174 units (48 single family
homes and 126 townhomes), then modified in 2007 to include 110 single-family homes.
However, the prolonged economic downturn thwarted project construction.
In 2009, the subject property was split in two after the owner sold a 4.22-acre parcel at
the northern portion of the site for development of a charter school. The school’s part of
the property was rezoned from PUD to R-2 (Single-and Two Family Residential District),
since schools were not allowed in PUD until 2012, when the LDR regulations were
655 of 714
amended. In 2013, the owner sold another 5.31 acre part of the property for a future
school recreational area. The request, if approved, would reunite the three properties
under the PUD zoning with a new master plan which would include a multifamily
residential component with 184 apartments and the existing school with the soon-to-be
developed athletic field.
The proposed master plan represents relatively little change from the first master plan
approved for the property (184 units as compared to 174 units). The property’s future
land use classification is Medium Density Residential, which allows for the requested
number of units. The type of units—rental apartments—reflects a strong market
demand. Moreover, given the proximity of the school, many alternative uses for the
property (particularly the previously proposed industrial use) could create compatibility
issues.
The proposed rezoning is compatible with the current and future use of adjacent and
nearby properties: there is a considerable diversity of land uses in proximity of the
subject property, from residential uses of various types and densities to institutional and
industrial uses. In addition to proximity of the school, and industrial and commercial
uses as employment centers, the project is located within ½ mile from the regional
transit network of Tri-Rail, giving future residents convenient access to the three-county
labor market.
The Planning and Development Board recommended denial of the subject request on
July 22, 2014.
H?
No impact on City programs or
OW WILL THIS AFFECT CITY PROGRAMS OR SERVICES
services.
FI:
The project would generate approximately $160,000 of annual
ISCAL MPACT
revenues in ad valorem taxes and fire assessment. The estimate of total annual fees for
water, sewer, and stormwater is $58,800. The necessary services can be provided
within the existing capacity of the respective city departments: no additional capital
outlays or increased staffing would be required.
The park impact fee will be $109,480.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Property Owner: High Ridge Housing, LLC and WDDW Resources LLC
Applicant: Ron Roan/High Ridge Housing, LLC
Northwest corner of High Ridge Road and Miner Road (Exhibit “A”)
Location:
Existing Land Use/
Zoning: Medium Density Residential (MeDR)/ PUD (Planned Unit
Development) with a Master Plan for 110 single-family homes
and; R-2 (Single and Two-Family Residential District)
Proposed Land Use/
Zoning: Medium Density Residential (MeDR)/ PUD (Planned Unit
Development) with a Master Plan for 184 apartments, the school
and accessory athletic fields
Acreage: +/- 18.44 acres
Adjacent Uses:
665 of 714
North: Single family homes in unincorporated Palm Beach County, classified LR-2 Low
Density Residential (2 du/acre) and zoned RS Single Family Residential.
South: The right-of-way of Miner Road, then developed property (High Ridge Commerce
Center) classified Industrial (I) and zoned M-1 Industrial; to the southwest,
undeveloped property within unincorporated Palm Beach County classified
Industrial (IND) and zoned Single Family Residential (RS).
East: The right-of-way of High Ridge Road, then, to the northeast, Cedar Ridge
Estates with single family homes and townhomes (townhomes built at 8.04
du/acre), classified Low Density Residential (LDR) and zoned Planned Unit
Development (PUD). To the southeast, Cedar Ridge and High Ridge Commerce
Park, developed properties classified Industrial (I) and zoned Planned Industrial
Development (PID).
West: To the west, undeveloped property (High Ridge Country Club) designated Low
Density Residential (LDR) and zoned R1AA Single Family Residential.
BACKGROUND
The subject property was annexed into the City in May 2005 and approved for Medium Density
Residential (MeDR) land use, allowing a maximum density of 9.68 dwelling units per acre. As per the
concurrently approved master plan and the site plan approved in September 2005, the project included
48 single family homes and 126 townhomes. However, infrastructure issues delayed construction and,
faced with a deteriorating housing market, the developer requested a modification, which cut the number
December 2007, but by
of units by 64 and eliminated townhomes. The modification was approved in
then the “Great Recession” took hold and it became clear that the modified project
remained financially unfeasible.
In October 2008 the developer applied for a land use amendment and rezoning of the site to change the
land use and zoning from residential to industrial. The amendment underwent the state review but the
developer chose not to pursue the final adoption and the requests were effectively dropped. In 2009, he
sold a 4.22-acre parcel at the northern portion of the property, subsequently developed as Imagine
Charter School, and, in 2013, another 5.31 acre part of the property for a future school recreational area.
Please note that the development order for the modified master plan approved in 2007 remains valid as
per extensions granted by state law in 2012. However, given that the portions of the property sold for the
school site were a part of the subject master plan, any development plans would require either master
plan modification or a new master plan. In this case, the owner of property occupied by Imagine Charter
School (currently zoned R-2) and the new owner of the remaining parcel (currently zoned PUD) jointly
request rezoning of the entire property to PUD with a new master plan which would include a residential
component and the existing school with the soon-to-be developed athletic field.
REVIEW BASED ON CRITERIA
The criteria used to review Comprehensive Plan amendments and rezonings are listed
in the Land Development Regulations, Chapter 2, Article II, Section 2.B and Section
2.D.3. These criteria are required to be part of a staff analysis when the proposed
change includes an amendment to the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map
(FLUM) or a rezoning.
a. Demonstration of Need. A demonstration of need may be based upon changing
conditions that represent a demand for the proposed land use classification and
zoning district. Appropriate data and analysis that adequately substantiates the
666 of 714
need for the proposed land use amendment and rezoning must be provided within
the application.
In terms of overall density, the new Master Plan represents relatively little change
from the first Master Plan approved for the property (184 units as compared to 174
units). The property’s current future land use classification is Medium Density
Residential, which allows for the requested number of units. The type of units—
rental apartments—reflects a strong market demand, fueled by victims of
foreclosures and others prevented from getting a mortgage by restrictive
underwriting criteria, as well as rising home prices and stagnant wages. Moreover,
given the proximity of the school, many alternative uses for the property (particularly
the previously proposed industral use) would create compatibility issues.
b. Consistency. Whether the proposed Future Land Use Map amendment (FLUM)
and rezoning would be consistent with the purpose and intent of, and promote, the
applicable Comprehensive Plan policies, Redevelopment Plans, and Land
Development Regulations.
The proposed rezoning with a new Master Plan is consistent with all applicable policies
of the Comprehensive Plan and Land Development Regulations (see also response to
{a}). In particular, the Comprehensive Plan explicitely supports proximity of schools to
residential areas (Policy 10 B.1.5).
c. Land Use Pattern. Whether the proposed Future Land Use Map amendment
(FLUM) and rezoning would be contrary to the established land use pattern, or
would create an isolated zoning district or an isolated land use classification
unrelated to adjacent and nearby classifications, or would constitute a grant of
special privilege to an individual property owner as contrasted with the protection of
the public welfare. This factor is not intended to exclude FLUM reclassifications and
rezonings that would result in more desirable and sustainable growth for the
community.
The proposed rezoning will not be contrary to the established land use pattern, will not create
an isolated district, nor will it constitute a grant of special privilege to the owner. The property
is already classified Medium Density Residential, which allows density of 10 dwelling units per
acre. (See also response to “a”.) Moreover, the property is surrounded by diverse land uses,
including industrial uses.
d. Sustainability. Whether the proposed Future Land Use Map amendment (FLUM)
and rezoning would support the integration of a mix of land uses consistent with the
Smart Growth or sustainability initiatives, with an emphasis on 1) complementary
land uses; 2) access to alternative modes of transportation; and 3) interconnectivity
within the project and between adjacent properties.
The subject rezoning would support the integration of the two complementary uses, residential
apartments and a school with its athletic field area. Pedestrian access gate will provide
interconnectivity between the residential part of the project and the athletic field area, while
interconnectivity with adjacent properties will be maintained through sidewalks along High Ridge
Road and Minor Road.
667 of 714
In addition to proximity of the school, and industrial and commercial uses as employment
centers, the project is located within ½ mile from the regional transit network of Tri-Rail, giving
future residents convenient access to the three-county labor market.
e. Availability of Public Services / Infrastructure. All requests for Future Land Use
Map amendments shall be reviewed for long-term capacity availability at the
maximum intensity permitted under the requested land use classification.
This request is for rezoning only. Long-term capacity availability for potable water, sewer and
solid waste was reviewed as a part of annexation of the property in 2005. The Palm Beach
County Solid Waste Authority determined that sufficient disposal capacity will be available at the
existing landfill through approximately the year 2046.
Traffic and school concurrency will be reviewed as part of the site plan.
Drainage will be reviewed in detail as part of the site plan, land development, and building
permit review processes.
f. Compatibility. The application shall consider the following factors to determine
compatibility:
(1) Whether the proposed Future Land Use Map amendment (FLUM) and rezoning
would be compatible with the current and future use of adjacent and nearby
properties, or would negatively affect the property values of adjacent and nearby
properties; and
(2) Whether the proposed Future Land Use Map amendment (FLUM) and rezoning
is of a scale which is reasonably related to the needs of the neighborhood and the
City as a whole.
(1) The proposed rezoning is compatible with the current and future use of adjacent
and nearby properties: there is a considerable diversity of land uses in proximity
of the subject property, from residential uses of various types and densities to
institutional and industrial uses. For example, Cedar Ridge Estates, east of the
property, are developed with both townhomes and single family homes; the
townhome section of the Estates has the density of 8.09 du/acre (as compared
with the 10 du/acre for the proposed project).
Staff foresees no negative impact on property values.
(2) The rezoning, increasing the housing choices, is related to the needs of both.
(See also a response to {a}).
g. Direct Economic Development Benefits. For rezoning/FLUM amendments
involving rezoning to a planned zoning district, the review shall consider the
668 of 714
economic benefits of the proposed amendment, specifically, whether the proposal
would:
(1) Further implementation of the Economic Development (ED) Program;
(2) Contribute to the enhancement and diversification of the City’s tax base;
(3) Respond to the current market demand or community needs or provide services
or retail choices not locally available;
(4) Create new employment opportunities for the residents, with pay at or above the
county average hourly wage;
(5) Represent innovative methods/technologies, especially those promoting
sustainability;
(6) Be complementary to existing uses, thus fostering synergy effects; and
(7) Alleviate blight/economic obsolescence of the subject area.
As already noted in this report, the proposed rezoning does not involve a change in
a land use classification of subject property, nor does it represent a significant
change in density from the first Master Plan approved on the property. The project
certainly complies with criteria #2, #3 (see response to “a”), and also #6, the latter
through complementarity between the school and the residential component of the
PUD.
h. Commercial and Industrial Land Supply. The review shall consider whether the
proposed rezoning/FLUM amendment would reduce the amount of land available for
commercial/industrial development. If such determination is made, the approval can
be recommended under the following conditions:
(1) The size, shape, and/or location of the property makes it unsuitable for
commercial/industrial development; or
(2) The proposed rezoning/FLUM amendment provides substantiated evidence of
satisfying at least four of the Direct Economic Development Benefits listed in
subparagraph “g” above; and
(3) The proposed rezoning/FLUM amendment would result in comparable or higher
employment numbers, building size and valuation than the potential of existing land
use designation and/or rezoning.
The proposed rezoning does not change the type of land use allowed on the
property.
i. Alternative Sites. Whether there are adequate sites elsewhere in the City for the
proposed use in zoning districts where such use is already allowed.
N/A. The use is already allowed.
j. Master Plan and Site Plan Compliance with Land Development Regulations.
When master plan and site plan review are required pursuant to Section 2.D.1.e
above, both shall comply with the requirements of the respective zoning district
regulations of Chapter 3, Article III and the site development standards of Chapter 4.
669 of 714
The concurrent master plan and site plan shall comply with said requirements.
RECOMMENDATION
As indicated herein, staff has reviewed the proposed land use amendment and rezoning
and determined that it is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan objectives and
contributes to economic development. Therefore, staff recommends that the subject
request be approved.

EQUESTED CTION BY ITY OMMISSION
002) to allow construction of 184 multi-family rental units (High Ridge Landing) consisting of eight
(8) two- and three-story apartment buildings, amenity area, and related site improvements at the
northwest corner of High Ridge Road and Miner Road, on 8.44 acres within a PUD (Planned
Unit Development) zoning district. Applicant: Ron Roan of High Ridge Housing, LLC. (TABLED
TO 11/5/14)
ER:
The applicant is requesting a major site plan modification for
XPLANATION OF EQUEST
High Ridge Landing PUD to modify the approved Master Plan and Site Plan by revising
the total number of units (184 is the maximum allowed at 10 dwelling units per acre),
changing the type of housing proposed, and revising related site improvements. The
owner of property occupied by Imagine Charter School (currently zoned R-2) and the
new owner of the remaining parcel (currently zoned PUD) are jointly requesting a
concurrent rezoning of the entire 18.44 acres to PUD with a new master plan that would
integrate the proposed residential component with the existing school and soon-to-be
developed athletic field (see REZN 14-002).
According to the site plan, a total of 325 parking spaces are provided, which is a
deficiency of 55 spaces and an equivalent of 1.7 parking spaces per unit. The applicant
has noted that 1.7 parking spaces per unit is an accepted industry standard that has
been utilized in other “New Urban” style developments that offer a range of on-site
amenities, and are located in close proximity to off-site amenities and uses that will
serve the neighborhood. Staff has researched this and is proposing a code revision to
the parking regulations (CDRV 14-002) concurrent with this request that will facilitate a
reduction in required parking spaces while promoting and recognizing developments
671 of 714
that propose sustainable design or operation. Based on the proposed code revision
(CDRV 14-002), parking ratios of 1.33 spaces per each one (1)-bedroom apartment
(reduction of .17/unit) and 1.66 spaces per each two (2) or more bedroom apartment (a
reduction of .34/unit), the 325 parking spaces proposed would comply with the minimum
off-street parking requirements.
The Planning & Development Board at their July 22, 2014 meeting voted to deny the
major site plan modification request.
H?
N/A
OW WILL THIS AFFECT CITY PROGRAMS OR SERVICES

BACKGROUND
Agent Brian Cheguis with Cotleur & Hearing Inc., on behalf of applicant Ron Roan, Vice-
President of High Ridge Housing LLC, is requesting a major site plan modification for High
Ridge Landing PUD to modify the approved Master Plan and Site Plan by revising the total
number of units, changing the type of housing proposed, and revising related site improvements
(see Exhibit “B” – Site Plan). The owner of property occupied by Imagine Charter School
(currently zoned R-2) and the new owner of the remaining parcel (currently zoned PUD) are
jointly requesting a concurrent rezoning of the entire 18.44 acres to PUD with a new master plan
that would integrate the proposed residential component with the existing school and soon-to-be
developed athletic field (see REZN 14-002). Pedestrian walking paths with gate access and a
shared driveway access from Miner Road will provide interconnectivity between the residential
part of the PUD and the school and athletic field, while interconnectivity with adjacent properties
will be maintained through sidewalks along High Ridge Road and Miner Road.
The maximum density allowed by the MeDR (Medium Density Residential) land use
classification is 10 dwelling units per acre (at time of previous site plan approval MeDR was
9.68 du/ac), which would provide the developer a maximum of 184 units. The previous approval
in 2007 (MSPM 07-010) for High Ridge PUD was for 110 single-family detached units on 18.44
5.96 dwelling units per acre (du/ac), a net reduction of 64 units from the
acres at a density of
previously approved 2005 site plan. The original site plan in 2005 (NWSP 05-016) was
approved for
48 single-family detached units and 126 fee-simple townhouse units at a density of
9.43 du/ac. Due to the modified design from single-family lots and interior streets, a revised plat
674 of 714
is required to be submitted to the Engineering Division for their review and approval prior to the
issuance of a building permit for the project (see Exhibit “C” – Conditions of Approval).
To date, the High Ridge PUD project has been approved for the following: an annexation
(ANEX 05-001); a future land use map amendment (LUAR 05-002) from PBC MDR (Medium
Density Residential) with a density of 5 dwelling units per acre, and PBC LR-2 (Low Density
Residential) with a density of 2 dwelling units per acre to the City’s MeDR (Medium Density
Residential) classification with a density of 9.68 dwelling units per acre; a rezoning (LUAR 05-
002) from PBC RS (Single-Family Residential) to PUD (Planned Unit Development); a new site
plan (NWSP 05-016); a minor site plan modification (MMSP 06-051); and a site plan time
extension (SPTE 06-013), which extended site plan approval to September 20, 2007; a major
site plan modification (MSPM 07-010) and a site plan time extension granted by state law in
2012.
ANALYSIS
Concurrency:
Traffic:
A traffic impact analysis for the proposed project prepared by Kimley-Horn and
Associates, Inc. was sent to the Palm Beach County Traffic Division for
concurrency review in order to ensure an adequate level of service. Based on
the traffic impact analysis, all significantly impacted links (using Level of Service
D and E service volumes) would operate acceptably through build-out of the
project in 2019. A traffic concurrency approval letter was received from Palm
Beach County indicating that 94 AM peak hour trips and 114 PM peak hour trips
would be generated as a result of this project, and that no permits are to be
issued after the build-out date of 2019.
In 2007, land was dedicated from the previous owner of the subject property to
Palm Beach County for future High Ridge Road right-of-way. Per the submitted
traffic impact analysis, a review was conducted of the Five Year Plans of Palm
Beach County and FDOT, as well as those improvements committed to by the
developers of projects in the area. Based on the review, no roadway
improvements are projected to be within the project’s impact radius. Also the
projected turning movement volumes for the project did not exceed the specified
volume thresholds, therefore no additional turn lanes were recommended.
School:
The School District of Palm Beach County has reviewed the application for a
concurrency determination on the proposed project of 184 apartment units and
found it complies with the adopted Level of Service (LOS) for Schools. Adequate
capacity exists in area public schools to accommodate the projected resident
population.
The City’s water capacity, as increased through the purchase of up to 5 million
Utilities:
gallons of potable water per day from Palm Beach County Utilities, would meet
the projected potable water needs for this project. Sufficient sanitary sewer and
wastewater treatment capacity is also currently available to serve this project.
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. All South Florida Water Management District permits and
other drainage related permits must be submitted at time of building permit.
675 of 714
Police/Fire:
The Police Department has reviewed the site plan and all review comments have
been acknowledged by the applicant and will be addressed at the time of
permitting. Police staff has determined that current staffing levels would be
sufficient to meet the expected demand for services. The Fire Department
expects to be able to maintain an adequate level of service for the subject project
with current or expected infrastructure and/or staffing levels. Further plan review
by Police and Fire, including infrastructure requirements such as fire hydrants,
would be addressed during the permitting process.
Access:
The proposed development of rental apartments would be gated for privacy.
One (1) main point of ingress/egress via a driveway connection to High Ridge
Road is proposed (see Exhibit “B” – Site Plan). The access would be located
approximately 400 feet from the intersection of High Ridge Road and Miner Road
and align with Commerce Road located on the east side of High Ridge Road.
The site plan shows that there are two (2) lanes for ingress into the subject
property, and one (1) egress lane to exit, separated by a landscaped median 12
feet wide and approximately 115 feet long. All ingress and egress lanes are 12
feet wide. The left ingress lane includes a call box for visitors to gain entry
through the gates, and the right ingress lane serves as a bypass lane for
residents. A queuing area 105 feet in length is provided from the access at High
Ridge Road to the call box, allowing for the stacking of several vehicles on-site.
Past the median is a proposed 2-way drive aisle flanked on the north and south
by an access gate that would allow residents entry into the development. The 24
foot wide drive aisle would also serve as a vehicular turn-around area for drivers
that cannot enter through the security gates.
A secondary point of ingress/egress is from the existing full access drive on
Miner Road located approximately 450 feet from the intersection of Miner Road
and High Ridge Road. A two-way gated access point for resident access only is
located off the existing Miner Road driveway. All gates would have lock boxes
for Fire Department access. The driveway openings allow for sufficient ingress
and egress of emergency and service vehicles. The plans also show a 20-foot
wide emergency access point from High Ridge Road near the northeast corner of
the site. This stabilized sod access route would be gated and used for
emergency purposes only if the main entrance is obstructed.
Vehicular circulation within the development is provided through private drive
aisles. Each two (2)-way drive aisle would have 12.5 foot wide travel lanes,
which would conform to current engineering standards. Some residents would
access their garage space via these drive aisles, while other residents without a
garage space would access parking spaces near their residential building.
The sidewalks are proposed separately from the vehicular use areas, and
provide pedestrian connectivity throughout the site. Sidewalks ranging from four
(4) to seven (7) feet wide throughout the development and provide pedestrian
access to amenities such as the recreation building, pool, and poolside gazebo,
and lake.
Parking:
Both garage and surface parking spaces are proposed for the development. The
current parking regulations require one and one-half (1.5) parking space per one
(1)-bedroom apartment. Two (2) and three (3)-bedroom apartments require two
(2) parking spaces per unit. The project proposes 48 one (1)-bedroom units, and
136 two (2)-bedroom and three (3)-bedroom units. The recreational amenity
676 of 714
area requires 0.15 per unit for guest parking plus one (1) space per 300 square
feet of area within the recreation building that is devoted to leasing and offices.
Based on the above current parking regulations, a minimum of 380 spaces are
required for the 184 proposed units and recreational amenity area (equivalent to
2.06 parking spaces per unit).
According to the site plan, a total of 325 parking spaces are provided,
which is a deficiency of 55 spaces and an equivalent of 1.7 parking spaces per
unit. The applicant has noted that 1.7 parking spaces per unit is an accepted
industry standard that has been utilized in other “New Urban” style developments
that offer a range of on-site amenities, and are located in close proximity to off-
site amenities and uses that will serve the neighborhood. Staff has researched
this and is proposing a code revision to the parking regulations (CDRV 14-002)
concurrent with this request that will facilitate a reduction in required parking
spaces while promoting and recognizing developments that propose sustainable
design or operation. Based on the proposed code revision parking ratios of 1.33
spaces per each one (1)-bedroom apartment (reduction of .17/unit) and 1.66
spaces per each two (2) or more bedroom apartment (a reduction of .34/unit), the
325 parking spaces proposed would comply with the minimum off-street parking
requirements, should the code revision (CDRV 14-002) be adopted as proposed.
The proposed development is located within close proximity to job centers,
institutional uses, public recreational natural lands, and public transportation
systems (within 0.5 mile of the Boynton Beach Tri-Rail station and Palm Tran bus
stop). The applicant is encouraging a range of sustainable initiatives as part of
the built and operational programming of the site by incentivizing the use of
alternative modes of transportation. Proposed is a sustainable living
environment that accommodates bikes, low-powered mopeds and scooters,
motorcycles, compact vehicles, and electric vehicles, and provides integrated
pedestrian facilities within the community. Operational rules shall be proposed
regarding the maximum number of vehicles per unit, especially lesser used
vehicles such as recreational, work, or utility vehicles and equipment. Incentives
shall be proposed for single vehicle households or those regularly using or
dependent on public transportation, while one (1)-bedroom units with more than
one (1) car, and two (2)-bedroom units with more than two (2) cars may pay
more rent each month.
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 pavement
markings will be provided to clearly delineate areas on site and direction of
circulation.
Landscape:
Site plan tabular data indicates the pervious area (open space, buffer, recreation
area, and lake) would total 29% of the entire site. A total of 1.74 acres of the
subject property would be landscaped open space and buffers. This pervious
surface would account for 21% of the total site. The landscape plan provides a
complimentary mix of canopy trees and palms exceeding the City’s minimum
landscape requirements, and proposes buffers around the perimeter of the entire
development; landscape islands throughout the off-street parking areas; and
foundation plantings around all building elevations.
Proposed plant material is limited by the landscape code to native and
drought tolerant species with low to medium water needs (waterwise Florida-
677 of 714
friendly plants). Tree species would include the following:Black Olive, Gumbo
Limbo, Sweet Mahogany, Brazilian Beautyleaf, Cassia, Royal Poinciana, Slash
Pine, Live Oak, Silver Buttonwood, and East Palatka Holly. Palm species would
include the Green Malayan Coconut, European Fan, Sabal, Montgomery,
Alexander, Christmas, Pygmy Date, Royal, and Bismarck palms.
The landscape plans indicate compliance with the required minimum
buffers around the perimeter of the site. Landscape buffers along the rights-of-
way of High Ridge Road and Miner Road would be 15 feet wide and contain
alternating Live Oak and East Palatka Holly canopy trees planted every 30 feet
and a continuous hedge three (3) feet in height of Red-tip Cocoplum. A
decorative five (5) foot high aluminum rail fence with brick columns would be
located on the outside edge of the Cocoplum hedge and have clustered
Viburnum shrubs around each brick column. Outside the fence would be a
continuous hedge of variegated Pittosporum two (2) feet in height and Green
Island Ficus groundcover to the property lines. Similar landscaping is proposed
along the east side of the Miner Road access drive. The landscape buffer along
the west property line is existing and is located adjacent to a buffer for High
Ridge Country Club.
A total of eight (8) Florida Royal palm trees 22 feet in height are proposed
along main entrance leading to the recreational amenity area. Bismarck Palms
are proposed within the main entrance median. The pool and cabana area would
be heavily landscaped with a variety of plant material. Lake planting will include
upland transitional plants such as Bald Cypress and Dahoon Holly. Littoral
plantings within the lake would include Canna Lily, Spike Rush, Pickerel Weed,
Duck Potato, and Water Lily.
The code limits the use of sod to larger open spaces for passive or active
recreation purposes, as well as swales, water detention and retention areas, in
an effort to reduce water consumption. The applicant has reduced the amount of
sodded areas from the original submittal, limiting placement to the rear yard play
area. If the areas labeled Active Rec/Sod Areas to the rear of Buildings 1, 2, 4,
and 6 remain sodded, staff proposes a condition of approval that the plans be
revised to indicate relocation of landscaping to provide pedestrian accessibility to
these areas for all residents of the development for recreational purposes, and
include continuous walking paths and signage as dog walk areas (see Exhibit “C”
– Conditions of Approval).
Burford Holly at four (4) feet in height is proposed to screen the trash
compactor. All above-ground mechanical equipment such as exterior utility
boxes, meters, transformers, and back-flow preventers would be visually
screened with three (3)-foot high Viburnum hedges. Each building would have
landscape material proposed along all four (4) building sides. Select trees would
be installed at half the building height.
Buildings:
The 184 units are proposed within 8 separate three (3)-story buildings consisting
of Type 1, Type II, and Type III buildings. The site plan indicates the 184
proposed units would include the following mix: 48 one (1)-bedroom, one (1)-
bath units; 112 two-(2) bedroom, two (2)-bath units; and 24 three (3)-bedroom,
two (2)-bath units.
Each Type I building would contain a total of 20 two (2) bedrooms units. The
Type I building is arranged with eight (8) units on the first and second floor and
678 of 714
four (4) units on the third floor. Each unit would be a total of 1000 square feet.
The Type 1 buildings proposed are Building #4 and Building #6 located adjacent
to High Ridge Road.
Each Type II building would contain a total of 24 units consisting of 12 units that
are two (2)-bedroom, and 12 units that are three (3)-bedroom. The Type II
building is arranged with a mix of four (4) two (2)-bedroom units and four (4)
three (3)-bedroom units on each of the three (3) floors. Each two (2)-bedroom
unit would be a total of 1000 square feet, and each three (3)-bedroom unit would
be 1,200 square feet. The Type II buildings proposed are Building #1 located
near the intersection of High Ridge Road and Miner Road, and Building #5
located south of the lake.
Each Type III building would contain a total of 24 units consisting of 12 units that
are one (1)-bedroom, and 12 units that are two (2)-bedroom.The Type III
building is arranged with a mix of four (4) one (1)-bedroom units and four (4) two
(2)-bedroom units on each of the three (3) floors. Each one (1)-bedroom unit
would be a total of 800 square, and each two (2)-bedroom unit would be 1,000
square feet. The Type III buildings proposed are Buildings #2 and #3 located
near the Miner Road access drive, and Buildings #7, and #8 located near the
lake.
Height:
The maximum building height allowed in the PUD zoning district is 45 feet, not to
exceed four (4) stories. All of the residential buildings will comply with the
maximum height requirement for the PUD zoning district. Each of the proposed
buildings is three (3) stories with a total mean building height of 34 feet nine-
inches (34’-9”), measured at the mid-point of the highest pitched roof.
Setbacks:
The minimum required perimeter building setbacks of a PUD are flexible,
however, the required perimeter building setbacks of the PUD must resemble the
setbacks of the adjacent development where a PUD is adjacent to single-family
residential zoning. The largest setback required within single-family residential
zoning districts is 25 feet. All proposed buildings would have a minimum
setback of 25 feet from perimeter property lines in compliance with PUD setback
requirements.
Amenities: Residents and their guests will have access to recreational amenities through
landscaped pedestrian walkways throughout the development. The proposed
amenity area is centrally located and includes a one (1)-story recreation building
of 4,000 square feet with the same architectural elements as the residential
buildings. The recreation building will offer a large clubroom for meetings and
social events, a large fitness room, an internet café, a kid’s playroom, restrooms,
covered front and rear porches, and a mail kiosk. A portion of the recreation
building will also house the apartment leasing, management, and maintenance
offices, including golf cart storage. A swimming pool (approximately 800 square
feet), spa, and poolside gazebo are proposed to the rear of the recreation
building. Pedestrian amenities throughout the development would include
benches, covered bike racks, and trash receptacles.
Design:
The proposed buildings have a Florida Vernacular architectural style that
includes a textured stucco finish, shaped horizontal banding to break up the
mass of the facades, and flat clay tile roofs. Horizontal and vertical articulation is
maximized by varying roof lines and building off-sets. Decorative features will
include mullioned windows, Bahama shutters, coach lights, balconies with
679 of 714
decorative aluminum railings, cast stone pilasters, French doors, and screened
patios. A pastel color palette includes a separate building color for each building
type. The design, as proposed, would provide for a sense of separation between
units and lessen the perceived density typical of multi-family developments.
Lighting:
The photometric plan (sheet A5.01 PH) proposes 40 freestanding pole light
fixtures throughout the development. The plan demonstrates that lighting levels
would be adequate and not “spill” over onto adjacent properties. Per the
photometric plan, all proposed lights will be shielded to direct light down and
away from adjacent properties and rights-of-way as required.
Signage:
The site plan depicts a two-sided monument entry sign proposed 10 feet from the
east property line within the development’s driveway median. The proposed sign
will identify the name of the development and include the property address. The
sign itself is limited to five (5) feet in height and the maximum sign face allowed is
16 square feet, and shall be externally illuminated. Typically, sign details are
provided as part of the site plan review and approval, however no sign details
were included on the plans. Staff recommends as a condition of approval that
the plans be revised at time of permitting to include all proposed signage. The
architecture, building materials, finish, and colors are required to be incorporated
into the signage to match the buildings.
Public Art:
The proposed project is subject to the Art in Public Places Ordinance which
requires the developer to either place public art on site or pay the art fee in lieu of
on-site art. The developer of this project has indicated that payment will be made
at time of permitting into the Public Art fund, rather than placing public art on site.
RECOMMENDATION:
The Development Application Review Team (DART) has reviewed this request for major
site plan modification and recommends approval contingent upon approval of the
concurrent request for rezoning (REZN 14-002) ) including a new master plan, and the
concurrent code revisions for parking (CDRV 14-002), and upon 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.
