attention in the last 48 hours under item C. Mr. Richter
added "Current Criticism of P&Z Board", which was the same

OTHER
A. Set workshop date for review of proposed Chapter 19
City Manager Miller had talked to Mr. Cannon and Chairman
Rosenstock relative to a workshop meeting of the P&Z Board,
as he thought it would take several hours to review Chapter
19. It was decided the meeting would be held Wednesday,
June 27, 1990 at 7:00 P. M. in Commission Chambers. City
Manager Miller informed Mr. Collins a copy of Chapter 19
would be furnished to the Members one week prior to the
meeting.

Agreements between City and Developers to Guarantee
Completion of Projects as Approved by City Requested
by Chairman Maurice Rosenstock
Chairman Rosensock asked what the status of this was. City
Manager Miller replied that City Attorney Cheroff needs to
develop a. standard type of agreement this information would
be added to. Because projects are forthcoming and being
apl~rove<~, Chairman Rosenstock felt time was of the essence.
Mr. Richter thought the City Commission had addressed this,
and he thought it would be pun in the Community Design Plan.
Chairman Rosenstock objected to that because he did not know
~nen the Community Design Plan would be promulgated, ge
referred to.Water's Edge voluntarily agreeing to sign an
agreement than the project will be completed as specified.
Chairman Rosenstock thought the City needed something in
writing to be sure developers perform as they say they will.
City Manager Miller responded it is on record and tape. If
a contractor/developer makes assurances to the P&Z Board
than is what will be developed, he thought the Board could
hold "his or her feet to the fire°" At the last Commisszon
meeting, Mrs. Greenhouse said she specifically asked
Attorney Cherof whether or not amy representations the
connractors/deve%opers may have made orally could have
constituted a contra~t the City could rely upon. ~ttorney
Cherof had answered, "No," and said they had to get it in
writing. Further comments wer~ made about getting agreements
for pending projects. C~airman Rosenstock i~formed
Mr. Richter the contractors/developers do nat have
performance bon~. It w~s decided Attorney Elk would relay
this discussion ~o Attorney Cherof.
Criticism of P&Z Board
add Daniel Richter
Requested by Chairman Rosenstock
It had coate to Chairman Rosenstock's attentio~ that Mayor
Gen~ Moore is in the process of writing or had written a
memo requesting that the City Commission consider doing away
with the P&Z Board, and he wished to hear comments from all
of the Members. Chalrman Rosenstock had nothin~ to say, as
his statement was made in the newspaper.
Mrs. DeL0n~ did not care to make any comment with reference
to the newspaper article because she had not seen any
evidence o£ t~e zemo. Chairman Rosenstock asked Vice Mayor
Wische if he h~dlreceived a memorandum. To date, Vice Mayor
Wische had not. Since there was no documentation that made
this official, Mr. Richter did not care to comment. As some
criticism was made to the newspaper, he stated he would make
a presentation.

MINUTES - PLANNING & ZONING BOARD
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA JUNE 12, 1990
Chairman Rosenstock was concerned because there will not be
a P&Z meeting prior to the next meeting of the City
Commission, and it will be illegal for the Members to discuss
this outside of the meeting. Be wondered whether they
should call a special meeting of the Board. If this matter
does come up, Mr. Richter advised there will be a hearing,
discussion, and probably a referendum because it is in the
City Charter that the P&Z Board is the Land Plannning
Agency. If the C~ty Commission decides next Tuesday to
become the Land Planning Agency, Chairman Rosenstock stated
the Board will no longer exist.
Vice Chairman Lehnertz understood this topic will be on the
agenda for the Commission meeting on June 19, 1990. He felt
the Board had done very important and useful work. A lot had
been done by the Board in trying to distill issues for the
City Commission. If the Mayor feels this Board should not
exist, Mr. Lehnertz hoped the rest of the City Commission
would look at what the Board has been doing and not agree
with the Mayor. Chairman Rosenstock stated this is one of
the few Boards where the only way a Member can be removed is
if there is a cause.
Mrs. Greenhouse asked if the Board would have to be "wiped
out" by a referendum or could the City Commission disband
them. Attorney Elk preferred to look at the Charter before
rendering an opinion. Mrs. Greenhouse inquired whether
Debra Wallace, Sun Sentinel, was quoting the Mayor. She
read, "Moore said on Monday he is writing a memo to the City
Commissioners, suggesting they streamline the operation of
government by eliminating the bureaucratic red tape and the
Planning Board." Mrs. Greenhouse asked whether Mayor Moore
said that. Ms. Wallace was sitting in the audience and
answered affirmatively. After making other remarks, Mrs.
Greenhouse commented she was not going to take it seriously.
She further remarked about the amount of work the P&Z Board
Members do and felt the resn of the Commission and the
citizens of the City appreciate what the Board does.
Mr. Howard agreed the Board has worked hard. The Board has
been in existence for years, and this was the first time
this ever came up. It looked like a game of politics to
Mr. Howard, and he thought it was a very negative thing.
Mr. Howard hoped it would not happen.
If it comes
Mr. Collins
the Board°
up for a vote on the Commission's agenda,
thought the overall Commission would maintain

MINUTES - PLkNNING & ZONING BOARD
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA JUNE 12, 1990
Mr. Richter told of how the Board has listened to the
problems of the citizens and offered relief by writing i~to
the Comprehensive Plan and suggesting new Ordinances to be
written by the City Commission. He referred to the P&Z
Board solving the problem Colonial Club Apartments and
the residential occupants of 86 other structures had
(because they were consIdered as non-conforming density uses)
by writing the following into the Comprehensive Plan:
"Ail attached single family, condomznzum, and cooperative
dwelings which exist at the time of the adoption of this
Comprehensive Plan shall be construed to be in conformance
with the densities shown on the Future Land Use plan, re-
gardless of the existing density, with respect to the
continuance, repair, and reconstruction of same, unless the
entire site occupied by such dwellings is cleared and re-
developed,
When the residents of Coastal Towers came to the Board with
a similar problem of height non-conforming use, the Board
asked the City Commission to create an Ordinance (No. 89-51).
Mr. Richter said because of non-conformity, Village Royale
on the Green needs assistance. If their buildings are
destroyed by fire or an act of God beyond 70% of their
appraised value, they could not be reconstructed because
they now do non conform to the parking space requirements of
City Code, even though they were constructed prior to this
Code.
Motion
Mr. Richter moved that before codifying "General Rules for
all Land Use Categories" in the new Comprehensive Plan, a
paragraph be added to the City's Zoning Regulations that
will include non-conforming use status because of parking
lot restrictions, and this paragraph would read that all
single family, condominium and cooperative dwellings which
exist at the time of adoption of the Comprehensive Plan,
and prior to codifying, be permitted to continue regardless
of the parking lot requirements with respect to the
continuance, repair and reconstruction of same.
Mr. Howard seconded the motion, and the motion carried 7-0.
MINUTES OF MAY 8, 1990
Vice Chairman Lehnertz drew attention to page 23 of the
minutes and said he did not make the motion regarding the

seconded by Vice Chairman Lehnertz. Motion carried 7-0.
COMMUNICATIONS AND ANNOUNCEMENTS
A. Overview of Sunshine Law and Voting Conflicts
(requested by City Attorney)
Attorney Elk apprised the Members the Sunshine Law was estab-
lished pursuant to Chapter 286 of the Florida Statutes. He
stated the Sunshine Law is applicable to any meeting of two
or more persons of any Board or Commission° It applies also
where a non-Board Member is acting as the liaison between
any other two Board Members even if the two Board Members
are not communicating directly but doing so through the
liasion, who does no~ have to be a Board Member. It does
not apply to Members of differen~ Boards unless there is a
delegation of authority 5o the Board Member with respect to
any act to be taken. It applies to any official act to be
considered or taken before the Board and Commission.
Attorney Elk continued by saying the Sunshine Law equally
applies to lawsuits, settteme~ts~ any negotiations, and
discipline in personnel. Any actions taken by the Board
must be taken in a public meeting. The public meeting
requires reasonable notice which is defined as enabling the
press and other interested parties to attend. The notice
has to contain the time and place and agenda, if available,
Ks to be prominently displayed.
With respect to rules, Attorney Elk said a Board at a public
meeting can impose reasonable rules during the conduct of
the meeting. The meeting must be open for public access.
There should be adequate public input allowed, subject to
certain rules, such as orderly conduct.
Attorney Elk stated there can be no secret votes. Ail votes
must be open to the public and be recorded. All Members on
a Board or Commission must vote unless they have a conflict
of interest. "Conflict of interest" is defined where a
matter ~o be heard or considered before the Board can inure
to the special private gain or that of the Board Member, any
principal o~her than a public agency, or any par~y which the
Board may ha.ye been retained by or represent, or any family
member of t~e Board. It must show special, private gains of
that Board ~ember as to himself or to the other parties.
- 5 -
MINUTES - PLANNING & ZONING BOARD
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA JUNE 12, 1990
With respect to a Member abstaining due to a conflict,
Attorney Elk advised that Member may still be counted, but
he must abstain from the vote and file a disclosure, stating
the nature of his interest and why he is abstaining from the
vote. At any public meeting, written minutes must be kept.
They can be taken through recordings which can la~er be
transcribed.
With respect to penalties for the violation of the Sunshine
Law, Attorney Elk stated it is a second degree misdemeanor
which involves imprisonment not to exceed 60 days and/or a
fine of $500. There can also be civil penalties imposed up
to $500. If found guilty, a Board Member or Commission
Member may be removed.
If there was any question in the minds of any of the
Members that there may be a violation, Attorney Elk
advised the Member or Members should abstain from that
action in all instances.
Vice Chairman Lehnertz asked Attorney Elk to explain a
conflic~ of interest with a special private gain. Attorney
Elk thought most o~ the law read that if anyone can gain in
any way by the vote (gain in income, interest, or anY
person the person represents or family member ~n gain
through that) in any way whatsoever, it is a sp-e~ial private
gain to the person~ In his circumstances, Vice Chairman
Lehnertz said he has actions he is trying to intervent into
because he can see in one course of those actions being a
loss to him and his neighborhood. If a different course was
£ollowed, there would not be a gain to him or his neighbor-
hood. There would be a status quo. Vice Chairman Lehnertz
inquired wkether that was a conflict. If he was speaking of
something such as an income by gain in value of housing in
the community, it wou~d be a gain. The housing would become
more valuable by the nature of that vote. I~ it would
decrease th~ value, i~ would definitely inur~ ~o the person's
gain or loss.
Mr. Cannon asked abou~ maintaining it, as he felt that came
up more often. He gave as an example someone living in a
neighborhood, and some rezoning or site plan is near that
person's neighborhood:. Vice Chairman Lehnertz clarified it
is a situation where if the status quo is maintained, the
value of the neighborhood will be maintained° The percep-
tion is that i~ the s,~atus quo is not maintained~ the value
of the neighborhood ~ill go down, at which point it would be
a conflict of interes~t because of a special gain to him to
- 6 u
MINUTES - PLANNING & ZONING BOARD
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA JUNE 12, 1990
vote, where if he would vote against a particular .applicant
and for the status quo, that vote would maintain the status
quo. It would maintain his neighborhood property. Attorney
Elk thought there was a liberal enough interpretation where
it could potentially be a gain to Vice Chairman Lehnertz.
Chairman Rosenstock thought there would have to be a direct
proven gain or loss. For example, many people are sitting on
the Board and 20 blocks away from where they live, there
will be adult entertainment. That is not a gain. Chairman
Rosenstock thought it was a matter of a judgment call, which
would be difficult to call. Attorney Elk replied there is
some discretion. If it raises a question in a Board
Member's mind, he thought the prudent thing was for that
Member to abstain.
ANNOUNCEMENTS
Mr. Cannon announced that the City Manager, the Consultant
who is preparing land development regulations for the City,
and he have scheduled a joint workshop meeting involving the
City Commission, P&Z Board, and the Community Appearance
Board (CAB] for ~uesday, June 26, 1990 at 6:00 P. M. in
Commission Chambers. The land development regulations being
prepared by the Consultant concern incentives for affordable
housing, native habitat preservation, regulations for group
homes, preservation of historic buildings, and environmental
regulations. Mr. Cannon said there are probably half a
dozen different land development regulations that have to be
adopted p~rsuant to the City's Comprehensive Plan.
As it was not 7:30 P. M. (when the public hearings were to
be considered), Mr. Golden suggested the Board move to "SITE

recreation facilities on 36.11 acres in
connection with a previously approved
planned unit development (PUD)
Tom McMurrian, 2010 Lindeil Boulevard, Delray Beach, FL
33444, apologized for not being at last month's meeting and
thanked the Board for postponing this request. He gave the
history of the project and stated they took it from a three
s~ory apartment complex to a two story apartment complex.
Mr. McMurrian showed the elevations. Discussion ensued
about the garages.
Chairman Rosenstock alluded to the fine reputation of the
company Mr. McMurrian represents. He referred to the
Catalina Center and the Holiday Inn, which have a Spanish
type look. Chairman Rosenstock wondered why the entire
atmosphere was changed. Mr. Howard called attention to the
roofs. Mr. McMurrian explained the type of roof and said it
looks very much like a shingle type roof. He stated that
particular tile is as expensive as the "Z" tile or "S" tile
bazrelled roof, so it was not a quality issue. Mr. McMurrian
thought you could have too much of one thing, and he
explained. He added their site plan will show more of a
suzeet scape and residential community versus a big apartment
complex.
Chairman Rosenstock commented eight tennis courts did not
make it much of a ~ennls complex. Hunters Run has 21
tennis courus. Mr. McMurrian replied there is a four acre
vacant piece of land between the hotel and this complex.
When they originally came through, that was uo be the health
club and the other tennis courus.
Mrs. Greenhouse did not think there had to be barrel tile
roofs everywhere. She noted Mr. McMurrian was making a
representation to the Board that the roofs he presented
wo~ld be aesthetically more pleasing. Chairman Rosenstock
was concerned because it was to be a tennis complex.
Mr. McMurrian reminded him they had prior site plan approval.

They could have done that if they wanted to, but they
thought this would be a better project.
There was discussion about the construction of the project
and other projects. Mr. Richter commented that over the
years, Mr. McMurrian's projects have proven to be very
quality oriented. He agreed with Mrs. Greenhouse there
should not be barrel tile roofs throughout the City.
Mrs. Greenhouse understood Mr, McMurrian put a great burden
on himself by allowing the mobile home park to have drainage
on this property. Mr. McMurrian clarified they had to put
in a drainage system to accommodate the water flow from the
mobile home park's site onto their site and into the canal.
Chairman Rosenstock inquired whether the type of landscaping
depicted on the elevation would be put in. Mr. McMurrian
answered affirmatively and added that they made a lot of
adjustments to the landscaping. They had no objections to
the staff comments.
The Technical Review Board (TRB) recommended approval of the
request, subject to the staff comments attached to the
original copy OE these minutes in the Office of the City
Clerk as Addenda A through C inclusive and uo the following

Mr. Golden read his memorandum No. 90-147 dated May 17, 1990,
which was addressed to J. Scott Miller, City Manager. (See
Addendum D attached to the original copy of these minutes in
the office of the City Clerk.) On June 5, 1990, the City
Commission accepted the recommendation from the TRB that
this request did ~o~ constitute a substantial change to the
approved master plan.
Bruce Mandigo, Acting Director of Engineering, Bethesda
Memorial Hospital, showed the location of the two houses
that will be demolished. He informed Chairman Rosenstock
approximately 100 children will be taken care of in the day
care center. Mr. Collins asked how many employees there
will be. Mr. Mandigo replied there will be four. He
stated they were not changing much as far as impervious
conditions. They were actually coming up with a little bit
less.
Comments were made abou5 the entrances to the center. Mr.
Mandigo told the Members they were no longer considering the
office building, and he said it should be deleted.
Mr. Collins moved, seconded by Mr. Howard, to approve the

C. CONSISTENCY REVIEW (Pursuant to Chapter 163.3194 F.S.)
1. Review of Proposed Concurrency Management Ordinance
for consistency with Comprehensive Plan
Mr. Cannon stated he could best describe concurrency manage-
ment as an accounting system. You have a finite number of
facilities or a finite capacity in those facilities, and you
have to divide existing projects, projects that have been
approved but have no~ been approved yet, and future projects
as far as who get what share of those public facilities.
Mr. Cannon named the following public facilities: potable
water, sanitary sewer, drainage, solid waste, parks and
recreation. If a project is exempt from these regulations,
that project consumes so much capacity in a public facility.
If a project comes on line, is approved and concurrency is
certified, that much capacity in the public facility is
reserved. The heart and soul of this Ordinance are the
exemption criteria. ~ne types of projects for each con-
currency can be certified for each public facility.
Mr. Cannon apprised the Members the rules are different for
different public facilities. He explained how they could
certify concurrency and exempt entire PUDs as far as road
capacity, drainage, and parks. Mr. Cannon said basically,
any PUD that was approved prior to June 1, 1990 or submitted
and subsequently approved prior to June 1, 1990 is exempt as
far as those three public facilities.
Mr. Richter questioned whether that would also apply to
Planned Industrial Developments (PIDs) and Planned Commercial
Developments (PCDs). Mr. Cannon replied for public facili-
ties where the Level of Service (LOS) is expressed on a per
capita basis, the Ordinance does not apply to commercial and
industrial projects. The only other alternative would be to
try and express retail square footage or industrial acreage
in terms of some corresponding population figure, which
would be cumbersome for both the City and a developer. A
commercial or industrial project would have to demonstrate
they need the LOS for traffic.
Mr. Richter noted this was the underlying document that
governs everything in traffic, especially in the commercial
and industrial areas. He thought potable water, waste
managemensf and things like that would also enter into this,
and he wondered how the State handles it. As far as potable
water, sanitary sewer, and solid waste, Mr. Cannon answered
they express those levels of service in terms of capacity
- 11
MINUTES - PLANNING & ZONING BOARD
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA JUNE 12, 1990
per capita. The Department of Community Affairs (DCA) found
the LOS to be acceptable° The theory the City is proceeding
under is the demand for commercial and industrial uses is a
function of population with the exception of Developments of
Regional Impact (DRIs). There is a special provision for
DRIs. If it is industrial and not a brand new DRI, they
only have to meet the traffic LOS and the drainage LOS.
Previously approved DRIs are exempt from the Ordinance.
Mr. Cannon continued by saying sanitary sewer, potable
water, solid waste, recreation facilities, and district parks
are facilities where the capacity is usually provided on
some city wide basis. Consequently, the City's thinking was
it is better to exempt only projects that actually have
construction plans (site plan or plat). After explaining,
Mr. Cannon said the Ordinance is pro-development. He
elaborated. There was discussion. Mr. Richter commented it
is preferred by City Planners because it can be done in
increments. Therefore, it has to meet levels of service as
they come along. Mr. Cannon added there are repeal revi-
sions, if someone thinks he has a hardship. He explained.
Chairman Rosenstock noted this became effective as of
June 1, 1990, and the County's became effective February
1st. He asked whether there would be a conflict. Mr.
Cannon replied there are ~wo areas where the County and City
overlap. First is the Traffic Performance Standard
Ordinance. This Ordinance incorporates that Ordinance by
reference and says if it is repealed for some reason, the
last Palm Beach County Ordinance is in effect in the City
with the City's levels of service. At this point, the
County's Ordinance supersedes the City's Ordinance.
Mr. Cannon said the other two facilities where there is an
overlap between the County and City's jurisdictions is in
the area of water and service. So far, it has not been a
problem. Palm Beach County has been requesting certification
of concurrency from the City's Utilities Department. Mr.
Cannon assumed it would not be a problem in the future.
Mr. Richter commented that sometimes there is interjuris-
dictional incompatibility. ~nese things are worked out by
the Countywide Planning Council.
Mr. Blanchette asked how this would affect the issuance of
building permits. HA felt it would affect people in the
City, sub-contractors, contractors, and developers as it has
in the County. If a project was platted prior to the effec-
tive date or if a preliminary plat and Health Department
- 12 -
MINUTES - PLANNING & ZONING BOARD
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA
JUNE 12, 1990
permits were submitted prior to June 1, 1990, Mr. Cannon
said that projec5 would be exempt. The City is not shutting
down subdivisions that are in process.
When the City annexes properties, Mr. Blanchette said the
properties will have to go through concurrency review.
Mr. Cannon replied there is a provision that if a project
was approved in Palm Beach County, the developer has the
option of requesting that his project be subject only to the
City's Concurrency Management Ordinance. He also has the
option, by default, of allowing the County's concurrency
rules to apply for a period of up to five years. After five
years, the project automatically becomes subject to the
City's rules. Mr. Cannon did not anticipate it would be a
problem.
Mr. Cannon told Mr. Collins they are working projects that
require certification of concurrency into the existing
system, and he explained. Mr. Cannon said the City hopes
site plan approval will continue the way it is. No new
paperwork for the applicants will be involved.
Mr. Richter moved ~o recommend that the Concurrency Manage-
ment Ordinance shows consistency with the City's Comprehen-
sive Plan. Vice Chairman Lehnertz seconded the motion, and
the motion carried 7-0.

Request to amend the Future Land Use
Element of the Comprehensive Plan from
"R~creational'~ to "Moderate Density
Residential'~ pursuant to Stipulation
and Settlement Agreement
Mr. Cannon showed the location of the park site on the over-
lay and said it was dedicated to the City when Lake Boynton
was platted. Since Woolbright Place will be developed for
apartments, it is no longer a practical location for a
public park. As part of the master plan, the developer
agreed to dedicate 3½ acres to the City and to provide one
acre's worth of cash or public improvements. Mr. Cannon
pointed out that the City will gain a neighborhood park that
could be used for recreational purposes. ~e elaborated.
Vice Chairman Lehnertz understood this was a request to
amend the Future Land Use Element of the Comprehensive Plan.
He called attention to page 5 of the Stipulation Agreement
and read: "Further, if Poinciana Park is relocated then the
space it currently occupies shall be conveyed to TRADEWINDS
- 15
MINUTES - PLANNING & ZONING BOARD
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA JUNE 12, 1990
without consideration and may be used for multi-family resi-
dential purposes." Vice Chairman Lehnertz' interpretation
was that until Poinciana Park is relocated~ the space is
not to be conveyed to Tradewinds. As the Stipulation was
part of the settlemenmt, City Attorney Elk wanted to review
it further with respect to compliance with DCA. Mr. Cannon
confirmed Mr. Collins' statement that it would not affect
the request tonight.
Mr. Cannon thought it would be a good idea for the City to
get title to the land Tradewinds intends to dedicate prior
to or at the same time the City deeds the property to Trade-
winds.
What Vice Chairman Lehner~z saw conceivably happening was
by approving the request, which would essentially convey
that property to Tradewinds to be used for multi-family
purposest their requirement to provide Poinciana Park could
be ignored, amd the City would have no stand to require
that. As he read it, if Poinciana Park is retoca%ed, then
rezoning should take place.
For Poinciana Park to be construed to be relocated, Mr.
Cannon said the City would have to simultaneously gain title
to the land Tradewinds intends to dedicate. If there was
a simultaneous transaction, Chairman Rosenstock remarked
there would be no problem. Mr. Cannon said he would be
opposed to the City giving them Poinciana Park prior to them
dedicating the land they meed to dedicate. Vice Chairman
Lehnertz commented about Tradewinds.
Chairman Rosenstock inquired whether the City Attorney could
be sure the land would not be transferred until there is a
simultaneous trsnsaction. City Attorney Elk replied the
City Attorney's Office could abide by that.
No one in the audience wished to speak in favor of or in
opposition to the request. THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS CLOSED.
Motion
Mr. Collins moved to approve the request to amend the Future
Land Use Element of the Comprehensive Plan from
"Recreational" to "Moderate Density Residential" pursuant to
Stipulation and Settlement Agreement. Mrs. Greenhouse

Lehnertz abstained from voting. (See Memorandum of Voting

Request for rezoning of a 5.1871 acre
parcel from Planned Unit Development
(PUD w/LUI=5) to Planned Commercial
Development (PCD) pursuant to
Stipulation and Settlement Agreement
Mr. Cannon informed the Board this rezoning was necessary
~o accommodate the enhancements that were given as par~ of
the settlement for the Woolbright PCD and PUD. The rezoning
consisted of 5.1871 acres in a strip along the northern
boundary of the PCD. As part o~ the enhancements, the PCD
square footage was allowed to be increased from approximately
173,000 square feet of retail and some 30,000 square feet of
ofiice to 320,000 square feet of retail. In order to
accommodate all of the retail square footage, it was
necessary to add 5.1871 acres to the PCD. The addition of
the 5.1871 acres was contemplated in the Comprehensive Plan.
A~ this time, Mr. Cannon said they were amending the Land
Use Plan to be consistent with the Settlement Stipulation
and the Future Land Use Map that was adopted in November of
1989. The Future Land Use Map showed the additional 5.1871
acres as Commercial.

Vice Chairman Lehnertz read paragraph 3 on page 2 o~ the
Stipulation and Settlement Agreement, where it referred to
"the 1986 Stipulation and Settlement Agreement. It was his
understanding the Stipulation and Settlement Agreement was
signed in 1989. Mr. Cannon explained they were referring to
the original Settlemnt Agreement, which was executed in
1986. W~at the Members saw in the agenda package was the
final Settlement Agreement, which included the enhancements.
As no one in the audience wished to speak for or against the
request, THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS CLOSED.
Vice Chairman Lehnertz drew attention to page 8 of the
Stipulation and Settlement Agreement and read paragraph 20.
He inquired how the 1989 Comprehensive Plan was amended.
Mr. Cannon answered that it was not amended per se. He
believed the Court O~der referred to in paragraph 20.amended
thE-Land Use Plan retroactively to the 1986 Plan. Wl%en the
City sen= the Plan to DCA after addressing its object~ons
and recommendations, the City included this addition~
5.1871 acres.
It was Vice Chairman Lehnertz' understanding, according to
Florida Statutes, that any amendment to the Comprehensive
Plan had to go through a stated process, including public
hearings and public acceptance by the City Commission. He
understood none of this was done by this particular amend-
men=. After commen=s by Chairman Rosenstock and Mr. Cannon
about the Comprehensive Plan, Mr. Cannon said only a Judge
could answer the question posed by Vice Chairman Lehnertz.
Vice Chairman Lehnertz wanted it reflected in the public
record and wanted the audience to know there are certain
State rules and requirements included in the Florida
Statutes that say how the Comprehensive Plan should be
changed. That process was not followed. It was Vice
Chairman Lehnertz' personal feeling that the Stipulation and
Settlement Agreement was null and void because those rules
and requirements were no= followed. Therefore, he felt none
of this should be approved by the Board. Due =o his other
involvements in this issue, Vice Chairman Lehnertz was
abstaining from voting, but he thought this should be
brought up as a public issue.
Mr. Richter moved, seconded by Mr. Collins, =o approve the
reques=. Motion carried 6-0. Vice Chairman Lehnertz
abstained from voting. See Memorandum of Voting Conflict

Mr. Golden made a joint presentation on the uwo above
requests. (See Addenda H and I att~ached to the original
copy of these min.utes in the Office of the City Clerk.)
He noted the County Planning Department is aware of these
requests, and they will be forwarding correspondence.
Mr. Golden said the Palm Beach County Traffic Engineer was

forwarded a copy of the developer's traffic impact~m~lysis.
The County's comments are attached to the original co~py~o~
these minutes in the Office of the City Clerk as Addendum J.
Mr. Golden noted the County Ordinance leaves the determina-
tion up to the Cities as to what is exempt from the Ordi-
nance. The conclusion regarding traffic was that approval
of these projects would consume road capacity needed for
other parcels currently designated for commercial land use
under the City's Comprehensive Plan.
The Planning Department recommended the requests be denied

still will not meet City or County standards as far as
levels of service. Discussion ensued between Mr. Richter
and Mr. Golden about traffic. Mr. Richter recalled the
history of the proper%y.
Kieran J. Kilday, Kilday & Associates, Landscape Architects/

explained. He passed out a package outlining his responses

water and sewer use, which was a concern of the Staff.
(See Addenda N through Q inclusive, attached to the original
copy of these minutes in the Office of the City Clerk.)
Mr. Kilday stated he was representing Mr. Bill Winchester
and Mr. Michael Schroeder.
With reference to the Boynton Beach Boulevard PCD,
Mr. Kilday informed the Members Mr. Schroeder is purchasing
this property from the University of Florida Trust. He
told the Members Mr. Winchester has owned the Knuth Road PCD
land fo~ the last 15 years, The City always indicated it
wanted.~these parcels annexed into the City but, as indicated
by the staff reports, there are issues with regard to what
should be the best land use. Mr. Kilday stated they are
also proceeding with a Development of Regional Impact (DRI)
on the balance of the property south of the Mall, which the
Board wili see coming forward shortly to be annexed into the
City.
Mr. Kilday stated Knuth Road has become a real issue. It is
on the City's Comprehensive Plan and has been designated to
be a connecting road to Woolbright Road. It has been
approved by the City to be rebuilt on an alignment that will
give it direct access to the Mall. Chairman Rosenstock
asked who will rebuild it. Mr. Kilday answered it will be
rebuilt by a developer such as him.
Chairman Rosenstock asked whether Mr. Kilday was going to
extend bridges across both canals. Mr. Kilday answered
affirmatively. Prior uo tonight, Chairman Rosenstock under-
stood Mr. Kilday did not propose to extend bridges across
both of the canals. Mr. Kilday replied that Tara O~ks PUD
had an obligation to build the road in front of them. He
thought there was some dispute as to whether they had the
obligation to build the bridges. Between the three projects,
(Boynton Beach Boulevard PCD, Knuth Road PCD, and Tara Oaks
PUD), Mr. Kilday stated they were prepared to build Knuth
Road all the way down to the Woolbright connection, includ-
ing two canal crossings. He confirmed Chairman Rosenstock's
statement that there will be a complete right-of-way and
highway connecting West Boynton Beach Boulevard and
Woolbright Road.
Mr. Kilday pointed out some people do not like Knuth Road.
He informed everyone it is on the City plan. It is not
resulting as the effect of any of these three projects. He
called attention to the fact that Banyan Creek is directly
affected by other projects. Mr. Kilday stated they
21
MINUTES - PLANNING & ZONING BOARD
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA JUNE 12, 1990
recognized the ultimate utilization of the proper%ies,
(whether high density or Commercial) would affect these
people.
Mr. Kilday stated they had meetings with the Associations
and asked what they could do to make things work out with
the people. After a meeting in the City Commission Chambers
on Friday evening, June 8, 1990 and a meeting at the club-
house on Monday, June 11, 1990, where the agreement attached
to the original copy of these minutes in the office of the
City Clerk as Addendum R was presented, they came to the
general agreement that the majority of Association Members
are supporting the projects, subject to the terms in the
agreement. The Members of the Association said fine tuning
needs to be done to the agreement. Mr. Kilday went on
record as saying he had no objection to that. He stated
tkere may be additional conditions that are not in the
Agreemen~ (Addendum R), but everything contained in the
Agreement is contained as a commitment of what his clients
will provide ~o the Association.
Currently, Mr. Kilday said Stonehaven Drive is a short cut.
Chairman Rosenstock was concerned about the residents in
Banyan Creek having to tolerate the flow of traffic. By
building Knuth Road to Woolbright Road, Mr~ Kilday stated
they will eliminate the desirability of cutting through
Banyan Creek. In the past, the residents of Banyan Creek
have approached the City and said they would like to keep
every street in the community as a private street and make
their community a private community. They were told because
of fire safety reasons, that could not be done. Mr. Kilday
said they have agreed ~o partic~ipa~e in applying for the
abandonment of that road and have it dedicated back to the
Association. He believed these~ ~ommunities were no diffrent
than communities like Quail R~d~e and Hunters Run, where
they have private roads, p~ovided it is not a danger to
health, public safety, and welfare.
~nairman Rosenstock asked when the plans were filed. Mr.
Kilday answered they were filed January 30, 1990. Chairman
Rosenstock understood there may be a question because of a
conflict between the County and City as to whether the
applicant substantially complied prior to the February 1st
deadline° In their opinion, Mr. Kilday replied they did
have substantial completion, kfter explaining, Mr. Kilday
said the City Staf~ determined these were completed appli-
cations. (See Addendum S attached to the original copy of
these minutes in the Office of the City Clerk°)

Mrs. Greenhouse questioned whether the main problem was the
fact the master plan showed no improvements recommsmded for
either of the two links. Mr. Kilday answered affirmatively
and said there was one ma~or issue on traffic, which he
would get into later.
Boynton Beach Boulevard PCD
Mr. Kilday said a majority of the site is covered in a
combination of Melaleuca, Australian Pine, and Brazilian
Pepper. There is muck on the site, and the site is
disgraceful. He read "Applicant's Response" to the Staff's
comments. (See Addendum N attached to the original copy of
these minutes in the Office of the City Clerk.)
With reference to paragraph B on page 2 of the Response,
Mr. Kitday said they felt through adequate buffering, they
would be able to take care of service and loading. He read
what would be provided, as outlined in the Agreemen%
(Addendum R). Mr. Kilday said the landscape plan and all of
the drawings he had shown the Board would be part of the
record. The additional berm coverage will be there.
Mr. Richter asked what the distance is from the closest
dwelling in the development to the back of the closes~
building in the shopping center. Mr. Kilday answered, "165
feet." He informed Mrs. DeLong they will finish the entire
360 degrees in back of the building in the same finish as
the front of the building, so any kind of roof line above
the wall will have the same frontage as it does on the part
people see from the street.
Mr. Kilday stated all of the requirements they stipulated to
will be done simultaneous with the initial land improvement
prior to any building permits being issued on the property.
Chairman Rosenstock asked whether Mr. Kilday was familiar
with the proposal that will be implemented very soon with
regard to an agreement by a developer to fulfill all of the
promises, plans and specifications specified to the Planning
Department, this Board, and other departments of the City.
Mr. Kilday answered affirmatively. Chairman Rosenstock
asked whether Mr. Kilday would be willing to sign such an
agreement. Mr. Kilday replied that he would. He offered
that every term contained in the agreement shall become a
par~ of any zoning Resolution and agreed to the addition of
"including all of the elevations", which Mrs. Greenhouse
suggested.

After'reading item D on page 3 of the "Applicant's Response",
(Addendum N), Mr. Kilday said the County is now rewriting
the Municipal Implementation Ordinance for an August 1st
deadline. They are making significant changes to reflect
the fact that a use like this is not open at peak hours.
K. S. Rogers, Consulting Engineer for the applicant, just
received the report from Walter Keller, Traffic Engineer for
the City~ and Mr. Rogers just finished his response. The
only outstanding issue with r~gard to the road links was
Boynton Beach Boulevard from Old Boynton Road to 1-95. It
is to be widened. At ~he time it is widened, it will be
under capacity. The problem is there has been a 15% per
year increase on the road. Both Traffic Engineers do not
believe the 15% increase will be a trend.
Discussion ensued about traffic. Mr. Cannon asked whether
Mr. Rogers' report included the additional traffic from the
turnpike interchange. Mr. Kilday could not answer. Mr.
Cannon responded the City would have to find that out. He
asked if Mr. Rogers took into consideration the extension of
Woolbright Road. Mr. Kilday answered affirmatively. There
was fUrther discussion about traffic. Mr. Kilday referred
to the nraffic studies, and said everyone a~greed the remain-
lng links of Boynton Beach Boulevard through the foreseeable
future will operate properly, so no issue has been created
out west because of the ~urnpike opening, up.
Chairman Rosenstock asked if there were any engineering
facts. Vincent Finizio, Administrator of Engineering, said
when Mr. Kilday specified that staff had written the County
and said the applicant was hot under the jurisdiction of the
Performance Standards, he meant one Staff Member oun of ten.
After explaining, he stated his position was that both of
the projects would fall under the jurisdictio~ of the
Ordinances adopted by the City. Further comments were made
by both Mr. Richter and Mr. Finizio.
Mr. Finizio added that today, the applicant agreed to a few
conditions he thought would protect the interests of the City
relative to roadway improvements. The applicant agreed to
comply with all staff comments by no later than Friday,
June 15, 1990 at approximately 1:00 P. M. The applicant
requested that the P&Z Board approve the projects conditioned
upon the applicants' compliance with the staff comments. If
the P&Z Board deemed this action appropriate, the P&Z Board
Chairman could withhold his required signature from the
master plan documents until such time as the City Staff
notifies the Chairman that full compliance has been gained.

The applicant agreed to abide by the determination of the
County Engineer regarding the jurisdiction and applicability
of the Palm Beach County Traffic Performance Standards and
Municipal Ordinances relative to their pro3ects, as speci-
fied in the staff comments. The applicant reserved the right
to appeal any County determination.
Mr. Richter felt the Board had to be flexible in some cases
uo see the highest and best use for the City is achieved.
Mr. Finizio tried to be flexible with the sites, and he said
it could be accomplished by them providing a statement on
the master plan that says the projects are subject to Palm
Beach County Traffic Performance S~andards and Municipal
Ordinances, If these properties are not subject to the
Ordinances, it can be handled administratively in a matter
of minutes. Mrs. Greenhouse asked if the applicant had
agreed to that. Mr. Kilday had no problem with that. He
said the County Ordinance de,scribes the.completion criteria
for an application, and that was what they had been writing
back and forth abouu. If the County Traffic Engineer says
the applicant is governed by the C0u~ty Ordinances, Mr.
Finizio stated the Ciuy will not be losing any major road-
ways that should be built as a result of the~rojects in_its
communities. Mr. Kilday wanted the lahguage GO be very clear
as uo what he was agreeing to.
~uairman Rosenstock asked whether Mr. Kilday would agree to
table the applications until the next meeting so the
language would be clear before the Members voted.
Mr. Kilday answered, "No." There were furthe,r comments by
Mr. Kilday and Boar~ Members.
Chairman Rosenstock thought this matter went a lot further
than just the traffic. He was concerned as to whether they
were abiding by the Comprehensive Plan. Chairman Rosenstock
referred to the memorandum from the Planning Department
(.Addendum H) and read from the third paragraph on page 7:
the proposed rezoning would be contrary to the
established land use pattern and would constitute a
grant of special privilege to an individual property owner
as contrasted with protection of the public welfare."
Mr. Kilday thought they could agree on the language. In the
future, Mrs. Greenhouse thought everyone should make sure
everything is complete before it is brought to the Board, so
the Members are not put in this position. Mr. Cannon asked
if Mr. Kilday would have language drafted prior to the City
Commission on Tuesday, June 19, 1990. He requested the
- 25
MINUTES - PLANNING & ZONING BOARD
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA JUNE 12, 1990
information by Thursday, June 14, 1990, so he could include
it with the Commission's agenda. Mr. Kilday had no problem
with that and said he would put the language on the plan.
Mr. Finizio stated he provided a certain set of comments
relative to the site. The Engineering Department will not
allow Mr. Kilday %o generate an agreement to put on the
master plan for them to determine it is in compliance. The
Engineering Department wants Mr. Kilday to say the pro3ect
is governed by those Ordinances, and he can appeal it at
the Engineer's level at that time. Chairman Rosenstock
stated whether the Board approved or rejected this, he would
not put his name on a set of plans when he did not know what
the language would be. Mr. Kilday also wanted to see a copy
of the language they were talking about. What they were
talking about had a significant legal! effect on how the
property would be viewed. All he wanted was for the
language to be proper, and he deferre~d to the City Attorney
to see that it would be.
In Mrs. Greenhouse's opinion, the City Staff had the experts.
She asked if, "The Boynton Beach Boulevard PCD shall comply
with the requirements set forth within the Palm Beach County
Traffic Performance Standards" would be the exact language
that should be on the master plan. Mr. Finizio confirmed
that was right. Mrs. Greenhouse was concerned because
Mr. Finizio said the plans were incomplete. Therefore, she
was of the opinion this should not move forward unless they
could come %o some determination as to whether that language
should be there. Further comments were made about what
Ordinances they were talking about.
Mr. Kiiday voiced objections, saying this was sprung on him
today, at the last minute. He wanted to move ahead because
he filed the application three months ago. Now one Staff
Member was getting up, making a change, and Mr. Kilday
stated he could not help if there was an in-house problem.
He was saying the language, as written, was fine, but he
could not have Mr. Finizio throwing in one more clause.
Mr. Kilday emphasized he would meet the staff commen~s.
Mr. Cannon thought the problem was that when the TRB signed
of~ on the plans, Mr. Finizio forgot to put "subject to his
memorandum" on there. Mr. Finizio's memorandum was an
addition to the agenda.
Chairman Rosenstock inquired whether Mr. Kilday's clients
would agree they will comply with the Traffic Performance
- 26
MINUTES - PLANNING & ZONING BOARD
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA JUNE 12, 1990
Standards as promulgated by the amended concurrency plan of
the County and the City, as amended by August 1st, 1990.
As Mr. Kilday did not know what the Standards would be, he
could not agree.
There seemed to be a question between the County and the
City as to whether there was a substantial completion of the
filing of the plans, Chairman Rosenstock did not want the
Board to be caught in a Catch 22 between the County and the
City. He wanted the issue resolved before the Board had to
vote on it. Mr~ Kitday advised the Ordinance makes the City
responsible for making the determination of completeness.
Mr. Cannon makes that final determination, and that was what
was contained in Mr. Cannon's letter (Addendum S).
Mr. Kilday's mind, the issue was resolved. Chairman
Rosenstock stated Alan Ennis, Palm Beach County Engineering
Department, did not agree with Mr. Cannon, and he wanted the
issue resolved. Mr. Cannon thought the City Commission
should resolve that question.
Mr. Richter personally felt Mr. Kilday and his clients ~were
trying to resolve every issue, and he felt the City was ~ry-
ing ~o do the same thing. He felt the Members sh~uld~ote,
subject to the conditions. Mr. Collins added that was the
way the Board normally did it. Mr. Kilday complained he had
been given directions by about three people who had
something different he should comply with. Mr. Cannon
thought the Commission, as part of its review and adoption
of the Concurrency Management Ordinance, would have to
accept this as part of the Ordinance. The Ordinance
includes exemption criteria witk respect ~o the County's
Traffic Performance Standard Ordinance. The City Staff will
then draw up a list of projects that will be exempt for each
of the public facilities. Mr. Cannon thought they should
defer this to the City Commission.
Chairman Rosenstock wanted to hear what the audience had to
say, and he asked people to limit their comments to three
minutes.
James Driscoll, 1796 Banyan Creek Circle North, thought the
developer was attempting to be fair with his community. He
was relying on the P&Z Board and the City Commission to make
sure the commitments made to their community would be carried
out.
Christopher B. Beaton, 1809 Stonehaven Drive, Boynton Beach,
FL 33436, believed he spoke on behalf of most of the people

on Stonehaven Drive and in Banyan Creek in support or.the
builder and the project. He thought privatization would
lead to an immediate rise in their property values and
stated anyone could ask him about guard gates, because he
knows how they work. Mr. Beaton s~ressed emergency vehicles
would have no problem with access and egress through guard
gates.
Mrs. DeLong asked whether Mr. Beaton had been trying t~
privatize the community for the past two years. Mr. Beaton
replied he met with Mayor Moore on April 7, 1990 regarding
what he felt to be intolerable traffic on Stonehaven Drive.
He thought the City Commission should privatize Stonehaven
Drive and said he started the privatization project in
October, 1989.
Sean Kearney, 1713 Banyan Creek Court, said they were trying
to weigh what this developer was offering them and ensure
they will ge~ wha~ is being offered to them. The issue was
not yet resolved, but they were working in that direction as
they thought they could ge5 that through the developer.
Joseph P. Cervone, 1747 Banyan Creek Court, stated the Tara
Oaks PUD would affect Banyan Creek. As the project is being
devloped on paper, he wondered whether the Board would
entertain petitions from the residents of Banyan Creek. Mr.
Cervone questioned whether the City could take positions,
based on the abutters' requests.
Mr. Cervone was not aware of the traffic situation as planned
for entrances to Knuth Road. Based on the fact that Knuth
Road can only be a two lane road on a sixty foot width, he
saw a high impac~ on Knuth Road, which is the primary
entrance to their development and the primary entrance for
bus traffic for Banyon Creek's children.
Early in the deliberations, Mr. Cervone noted they were
talking about a public access park or recreation land be-
ween the commercial and residential developments. He heard
no talk of that this evening. Mr. Cervone questioned
whether that was merely hearsay. Mr. Cannon answered that
the City had no~ heard anything and had not seen anything on
the plans to indicate a recreation area would be provided.
Mr. Cervone was led 5o believe there would be a park abutting
the southern end of the Knuth Road commercial property.
Mrs. DeLong asked whether there is a park consideration in
the Tara Oaks PUD. Mr. Cannon answered affirmatively.

Mr. Cervone commented three projects affect Banyan Creek,
and they had only heard two. He favored tabling this'issue
until all language on the two projects could be cleared.
Mr. Cervone inquired whether the developer was willing to
give chronology on the commercial property. He explained
to Chairman Rosenstock that was very important to Banyan
Creek because the purchase of three plats could leave the
two front commercial properties open as the last two to be
developed. They may not be developed and sold after the
rezoning. There was discussion about a rezoned property
that may not be developed, buffers, and what the developer
agreed to.
Mr. Cannon stased under the Concurrency Management Ordinance
being proposed for any planned zoning district, that zoning
is good for 18 months. If they do not plat the property
within 18 months, the applicant will lose his exemption and
certification. Under that Ordinance, it is very difficult
to get an extension.
Roger Bennett, 1718 Banyan Creek Court, President of
Stonehaven PUD, presented a petition with 109 signatures out
of 166 homes that stated they will support the builder, per
their agreement with the community. He thought they had a
workable solution and said they will have a formal agreement
at the Commission meeting for the final approval of this.
Mr. Bennett saw no problem with this. He informed Mrs°
DeLong this was a community matter, not an Association
matter because it was not contained within Stonehaven's
plat. Mr. Bennett read the petition in support of Boynton
Beach Boulevard PCD, Knuth Road PCD, and Tara Oaks PUD.
(The petition is in the applicant's file in the Office of
the City Clerk.)
Malcolm Sullivan, 3628 Royal Tern Circle, President of Quail
Ridge Property Owners' Association, a community of 947 resi-
dences, stated they abut the subject proper~y for the full
back exposure of it on its west and south sides. He
· objected to looking at the back side of a mall with noise,
confusion, dumps~ers, traffic, and odors, and he was
distressed about Knuth Road. He stated a commercial pocket
will be created, and there seemed no necessity for it. Mr.
Sullivan asked Mr. Kilday last week about buffering.
Although Mr. Kilday had done a lot of work with regard to
Tara Oaks PUD, all Mr. Sullivan had a~ that time was an
assurance it will be buffered.
When Mr. Sullivan asked Mr. Kilday who the tenants will be,
he found not a single tenant has been signed up. ~e stated

they were looking at 220,000 square feet of property which
he hoped is not destined to stay vacant. Mr. Sullivan asked
Mr. Kilday for a uraffic projection, which Mr. Kilday had
promised to deliver on Saturday. Quail Ridge would have
liked to see it.
Mr. Sullivan emphasized there were a number of questions
hanging on this property. The City Staff identified twelve,
which he named. Mr. Sullivan hoped the petition for
annexation and the shopping center would be denied.
Phil Leslie, President~ COBWRA (Coalition of Boynton West
Residential Association), informed the Commission COBWRA has
34 members and a population of probably 20,000 to 25,000
people. He passed out a newspaper clipping and said the
City Staff covered many reasons why the petition should be
denied. Mr. Leslie stated this plan does not confor~ with
the City or County's Comprehensive Plans, and it does not
comply with COBWR~'s Growth Control Plan. He explained and
elaborated on why the project is not needed by re~er~ing to
the mall and other shopping centers.
Mr. Leslie said there is no commercial development on the
south side of Boynton Beach Boulevard from the Carteret Bank
at Military Trail all the way to this project. COBWRA
believed that should continue. There are strip shopping
centers on the north side, which are adequate for shopping.
Mr. Leslie reminded the Members that al/ Comprehensive Plans
indicate shopping centers should be at major intersections.
Knuth Road is not a major intersection, and it may never be.
This is the western gateway to the City of Boynton Beach.
Mr. Leslie recalled when Tim Cannon testified against Jiffy
Lube on the north side of Boynton Beach Boulevard at the
intersection of Oakwood Drive because the area might be
annexed into the City and he felt it would be inappropriate
at that location. He stated this is inappropriate at this
location.
Mr. Leslie elaborated about empty office spaces, empty
stores, blight, zoning, and the Comprehensive Plan. He under-
stood the traffic study was incomplete. Mr. Leslie explained
that COBWRA's concerns are Boynton Beach Boulevard, the turn-
pike interchange, and the Intracoastal bridge. They have
contributed and supported all phases of Boynnon Beach
Boulevard's development. Quail Ridge, a member of COBWRA,
abuts this property. Mr. Leslie stated they want this gate-
way to the City to retain its attractiveness. Most of the

BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA JUNE 12, 1990
neighbors and COBWRA do not want the projec=, and he urged
the Commission to deny it.
Patrick Booth, 1812 Edg~water Drive, opposed the applica-
tions for Boynton Beach Boulevard PCD, Knuth Road PCD, and
Tara Oaks PUD. There is no way the projects will conform
with what is presently there. Mr. Booth was against any
type of development other than what it was platted for (78
single family homes).
Geraldine Delibero, 132 Tara Lakes Drive, West, could not
comprehend how the City could go from 78 single family homes
in Tara Oaks to 192. She hoped the Board would deny the
request.
Russell T. Brinson, 1824 Edgewater Drive, opposed all three
sites, mainly Tara Oaks. He referred to the access from
Knuth Road and said there ~s only a maximum of 75 feet-from
the pavement to the fence at Quail Ridge. Mr. Brinson
questioned how much of a road could be put in between there.
Andrew Luchkowec, 1715 Banyan Creek Court, asked whether
the City will abandon Stonehaven Boulevard upon the comple-
tion of Knuth Road. Chairman Roslenstock answered that would
be up to the City Commission. Mr. Luchkowec wondered if his
community could achieve that. It was one of the items on
the agreement they were endorsing the project under, and it
must be approved. Mr. Luchkowec asked how they should pro-
ceed. If the City Commission is in favor of the project,
Mr. Cannon thought they would give Mr. Luchkowec a good
indication next week of whether they are in favor of the
abandonment.
Robert Groelle, 53 Peachtree Place, Lakes of Tara, lives
north of the proposed shopping center and directly east of
Tara Oaks. He stated they were not offered any inducements
to want the shopping center or high density residential in
their back yards. It was apparent the inducements caused
residents to endorse the development of this area despite
the County and City's decisions they were not appropriate
areas for this type of development. If the Board was in
Board was in favor of what Mr. Kilday was saying, Mr.
Groelle felt it would be because Knuth Road will be built
through to Woolbright Road at the developer's expense.
It sounded to Mr. Groelle as if the developer planned to
build all three projects in conjunction with one another.
By doing that, 192 units will be directly west of Tara Lakes
- 31
MINUTES PLANNING & ZONING BOARD
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA JUNE 12, 1990
and Clipper Cove. He called attention to the traffic that
will be generated. Mr. Groelle heard no numbers about this
and nothing to supporu the references. It seemed the under-
lying theme was whether or not this would have a good
appearance to the people in Stonehaven or the Boynton Beach
Boulevard entrance and whether or not Knuth Road will be
built. Mr. Groelle thought those considerations should be
taken into account by the Board. Allowing development of
this will drop the property values of Stonehaven and the
ones further north.
Mr. Richter asked why Mr. Groelle felt the property values
would drop. Mr. Groelle answered Clipper Cove is just south
of his development. If these developments are approved,
Tara Oaks will have rental apartments and will completely
block off Tara Lakes' westbound exit. There will be an
island of single family homes sitting in the middle of
rental apartments. Further comments were made abouu uses,
Knuth Road, and the surrounding community.
Tom Marshall, President, Tara Lakes Homeowners' Association,
17 Tara Lakes Drive East, state~ Lakes of Tara,is a community
of approximately 145 single fam%ly homes, which abuts the
east edge of the Tara Oaks property. The residents~'~Q~.Lakes
of Tara are opposed to the proposed increase in density to
support 192 units that will most likely result in rental
property. Mr. Marshall further commented about low property
values, decreased resalability, increased crime, noise, dis-
respect for personal property, and the safety and welfare of
the children in Lakes of Tara.
Lakes of Tara was also opposed to the extension of S. W.
Congress Boulevard to join the proposed extension of Knuth
Road due to the increased traffic it will create as a short
cut to Congress Avenue. Mr, Marshall said Lakes of Tara
concurred with the developer's proposal uo terminate S. W.
Congress Boulevard with a cul-de-sac.
In the evenu the rezoning of Tara Oaks would be grgnted,
Lakes of Tara asked that the following stipulations be met:
(1) S. W. Congress Boulevard be terminated with a cul-de-
sac. (2) No dwelling units will be constructed south of the
north edge of S. W. Congress Boulevard. (3) Lakes of Tara
be allowed to provide input and improve the landscaping
plans immediately adjacent to Lakes of Tara.
Kenneth Roper, 1814 Edgewater Drive, was opposed to all
three of the proposed developments, specifically Tara Oaks.

BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA JUNE 12, 1990
With the proposed Land Use Element, he will be faced with~
looking out his front door au two story apartment complexes,
which will be occupied by renters with no financial invest-
ment in the property. He felt his property would be
adversely affected. Mr. Roper thought a lot of people who
were in support of this were lured by the promise of
privatization.
Lois West, 109 Azalea Circle, representing a row of people
present at the meeting, opposed the rezoning due to traffic.
She did not ~nink the cul-de-sac was a good idea either and
thought the projects should be tabled. Ms. West stated the
residents were told by a realtor the value of their homes
would go down if tke projects were approved.
Stella Rossi, 625 Whispering Pines Road, speaking on behalf
of the Coalition for Wilderness Islands, was speaking
particularly of Tara Oaks. Her organization wished to point
out a population of gopher tortoises, a protected species,
exists on this site. Mrs. Rossi further mentioned endangered
and rare status plants. She believed the U. S. Wildlife and
Florida Freshwater and Game Commission would attest to the
fact that relocation sites are virtually nonexistent in Palm
Beach County.
May Colby, 1810 Edgewater Drive, was against all three
projects. She wanted single family communities.
Peggy L. Field, 1826 Edgewater Drive, said the majority of
people who signed the petition agreeing to the rezonlng live
in the center of Banyan Creek. They do not live along Edge-
water Drive and will not have to listen to trucks behind the
shopping center. The apartments to the south maintain 70%
non-occupancy. She was not in favor of any of the projects.
Mike McCoy, 1822 Edgewater Drive, did not think all 109
people who signed the agreement received the letter that
went out. He supported Quail Ridge, COBWRA, and the
Coalition for Wilderness Islands. He noted the majority of
objections were coming from Edgewater Drive, which will face
the brunt of Knuth Road and Tara Oaks. The residents of
Edgewater Drive do not want Knuth Road and would like to
pursue having it abandoned. Mr. McCoy also spoke about
traffic, noise, Miami, drug use, Tara Oaks, Quail Ridge, and
the quietness of his neighborhood, a four lane or six lane
highway, and the two commercial properties. He stated he
and almost all of his neighbors were told Knuth Road would
never go through.

Mr. McCoy emphasized this will ruin property values because
he is in a PUD community. He stated the developer refused
to put money into escrow and talked uo just one development
about privatization. Mr. McCoy wanted everything to remain
status quo.
Kevin Clair, 1815 Stonehaven Drive, Past President of the
Homeowners' Association of Stomehaven, stated he has had
professional dealings with Kilday & Associates, and he held
Mr. Kilday and his people in the highest regard. He thought
they represented the best opportunity for Stonehaven Home-
owners' Association to improve its property values,
security, and safety through privatizationo Mr. Clair felt
tabling the matters would only result in harm to the owner.
He knew this would have to go to the Department of Community
Affairs (DCA) in Tallahassee. If thro~'n out of that
sequence~ it is unlikely this will be developed before next
year. Mr. Clair referred to Stonehaven's budget and s~id
the projects would be economically feasible.
Jackie Brady. 1781 Banyan Creek Circle North, felt the
projects Should be denied. She stated there was no guaran-
tee the wall would protect them. Ms. Brady told the Members
some of the 109 who signed the petition wish they had that
piece of paper back. She felt the requests should be tabled
so people who signed the petition au the meeting on Friday,
June 8, 1990 could change their minds.
As no one else wished to speak in favor of or in opposition
to the requests, THE PUBLIC HEARINGS WERE CLOSED.
Mr. Richter informed everyone Knuth Road only has room for
~wo lanes. There will not be four or six lanes.
Mr. Kilday reported that he and Mr. Finizio reached an
agreemenu on the Language. On each of the applications, it
will read: "~natever the name of the PCD, it shall comply
with the applicable requirements set forth within the Palm
Beach County Traffic Performance Standards."
THE BOARD TOOK A RECESS AT 10:30 P. M.
at 10:45 P. M.
The meeting resumed
Although he only spoke about one of the projects, Mr. K~lday
noticed all three were referred to by the people. He stated
the people who agreed to the projects had the benefit Of all
of the information, and he explained. One issue Mr. Kilday
heard consistently was concern over Knuth Road. That was
- 34
MINUTES - PLANNING & ZONING BOARD
BOYNTON BEACE, FLORIDA
JUNE 12, 1990
non being made to happen because the right-of-way for Knuth
Road had already been dedicated to the City. For some
reason, the City had never required the developer to
eonsnruct the entire length of it.
Boynton Beach Boulevard PCD
With regard to the Boynton Beach Boulevard PCD, ~he thing
that bothered Mr. Kilday the most was the following sentence
in the staff's report: "The proposed rezoning would be
contrary to the established land use pattern and would
arguably constitute a grant ~f special privilege to an indi-
vidual property owner as contrasted with protection of the
public welfare." He had an aerial showing the property is
located at a major intersection, next to a public facility
and industrial property. Mr. Kilday believed the property
was not a special privilege to the owner but was consistent.
Ee thought the curren~ language in the plan which says C-4
zoning should be allowed on the property it abuts to the
east left this property out. Ee thought that was because of
an absentee owner, who was unaware of what decisions were
made. M~. Kilday asked the Members to vote in favor of the
Boynton ~each Boulevard PCD.
Vice Chairman Lehnertz did not feel the rezoning was
consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and Future Land Use
Element. Ee pointed out than the Board, City Commission,
and Citizens spent many hours going over the Comprehensive
Plan. To have someone from outside the City say they want
to rewrite the text of the Comprehensive Plan did not do
justice to the Board, the City Commission, or the citizens
who gave their input. Vice Chairman Lehnertz referred to
the residential development~ and school directly to the
south and said the school goes more with residential zoning
znstead of commercial zoning. The only place with a negative
impact in terms of residenb~al was along the eastern border,
which has the storage facility and tk$ post.office. Vice
Chairman Lehnertz thou~kt they should look at the
Comprehensive Plan. Chairman R~senst~e~ was in agreement
that the Comprehensive Pi~ s!hould be strictly adhered to.
It seemed to Mr. Richter that something better had come
along than what the Members had recommended in the
Comprehensive Plan, and he explained. If they build high
density apartments there, he wondered who would rent them.
Mr. Richter felt this was the highest and best use. He also
felt Mr. Kilday showed concern for the surrounding neighbor-
hood. Mr. Richter was in favor of the project.

Mr. Collins was concerned about taxes and looked at the
figures in the agenda packets the Members had. He also
felt there would be more jobs. Those were things he looks
at when making recommendations. Mr. Collins thought some-
times you have to change and be flexible. Be was in favor
of the project.
Mr. Howard agreed with what Vice Chairman Lehnertz said.
He did not think it would be right to change the Compre-
hensive Plano Mr~ Howard was against it.
Motion re Boynton Beach Boulevard PCD
Mr. Richter moved to approve the request, subject to staff
comments and continued negotiations with the neighborhood~
according to the agreement that was presented. Mr. Collins
seconded the motion.
Mrs. Greenhouse commented the citizens could get something
far worse in the future. That was something she was taking
into consideration in making her determination.
A vo~e was taken on the motion, and the motion carried 4-3.
Chairman Rosenstoek, Vice Chairman Lehnertz, and Mr. Howard
voted against the motion.
Knuth Road PCD
Mr. Kilday informed Vice Chairman Lehnertz that in this
case, the owner is not an out of town resident.
Mr° Winchester has owned the properny for many years.
Mr. Kilday read from the Applicant's Response. (See Addendum
O.) With regard no Quail Ridge, he stated they will provide
the same landscape treatment as indicated on the earlier
project with one difference. In this case, they do not want
to provide walls around the site. Mr. Kiernan showed where
Quail Ridge ends and said there is an old platted 30 foot
right-of-way, and he did not know whether it would remain
there. They will be providing 25 feet of landscaped area
around there. To the south, a six foot chain link fence is
around the entire property. Mr. Kilday stated Quail Ridge
will non be negatively affected by this project.
Mr. Kilday believed if Knuth Road is not built by them, it
will be built by someone because it is in the City's plans.
He stated a wall should be provided. The wall will take
care of whatever impact this project will have and also
whatever impact all the other cars that will use Knuth

Road from Woolbright Road will have. This should have been
done by the original developer because everyone knows Knuth
Road was in a plat. In the construction of Knuth Road, Mr.
Kilda~ stated they included in the plans a six foot wall.
He showed where the wall will be and said they provided for
the wall in the agreement on this project. Mr. Kilday said
none of the Edgewater people abut the project, but they abut
Knuth Road.
Mr. Kilday stated the Comprehensive Plan says commercial
development should be promoted at intersections and strip
cen~ers should be removed. He thought they were meeting the
Plan's intent. Mr. Kilday stated signalization is needed,
and they agreed to that requirement.
In response to a question asked by Mr. Howard, Mr. Kilday
said the Association wanted barbwire on top of the wall in
the other project. Mr. Cannon advised barbwire is not
allowed in the City. Mrs. Greenhouse asked whose res~oni-
bility it is to maintain the wall. Mr. Kilday answered they
will provide the wall, but they will not provide the main-
nenance because it would be off of their property.
Mr. Cannon inquired whether there is a common area abutting
Knuth Road that the Homeowners' Association maintains.~
On the north side of the entrance, Mr. Kilday said there is
common area maintained by the Association. On the south
side is a private parking tract also owned by the Associa-
tion. Mrs. DeLong asked how far away Edgewater Drive is.
Mr. Kilday explained, and said it would be 75 feet off Knuth
Road. He stated the Association would have to address the
maintenance issue. Mr. Roger Bennett responded it was
agreed the Homeowners' Association would maintain that wall
because it would be on their property. They did not address
the rest of the wall. Mr. Kilday had no problem agreeing
that the applicant will maintain the wall for a certazn
period of time into the future. The Association should take
it over following that time. Mr. Bennett thought that could
be worked ouT°
Mr. Cannon advised the wall abutting Quail Ridge would be a
Code requirement, and the applicant would have to get a
variance from the Board of Adjustment. Mro Kilday had no
problem with that. He stated they would do it by Code
unless they could get a variance on it.

Motion re Knuth Road PCD
Mr. Collins moved to approve the request, subject to staff
comments. Mr. Richter seconded tbs motion.
Vice Chairman Lehnertz had very severe reservations about
the application. At build out, they will have 45 to 105
excess acres of commercially zoned property within the City.
Vice Chairman Lehnertz emphasized that the City does not
need another 120,000 square foot shopping center. The
Comprehensive Plan says the City should not allow acreage
which is greater than the demand pro~ected unless they
demonstrate a particular proper~y is unsuitable for any
other use. If they would revisit the Comprehensive Plan and
consider the actions of the Board on a previous action, the
Comprehensive Plan could reasonably be changed to say this
entire area should be Moderate ~ensity/Resident~al as
opposed to partially Commercial and partially Moderate
Density/Residential considering the fact that Boynton Beach
Boulevard PCD was not supposed ~o be Commercial at all.
From what the City Staff said~ Vice Chairman Lehnertz stated
approval of an additional retail development in the City may
limit and compete with prospects fo~ the redevelopment of
the Central Business District (CBD), U. S. 1, and Boynton
Beach Boulevard east of 1-95. The applicant himself said in
his responses to the City the only other place this could go
would be in the CBD. Vice Chairman Lehnertz expounded about
the CBD and emphasized there was not sufficient justification
to approve this.
Mr. Richter stated the CBD had not been figured into this
plan as far as build out. ~ne projection for build oun is
everybody's educated guess. Mr. Richter felt said any way
you look at it. this is a commercial piece of property. He
questioned who would want to build homes on a six or eight
lane road, and he referred to the surrounding commercial
property. Chairman Rosenstock asked how he felt about the
Comprehensive Plan. Mr. Richter thought that was the best
guess at the time the Comprehensive Plan was put together.
Vice Chairman Lehnertz referred to CaZa Btanca, which looks
like a very successful residential area. Mrs. DeLong called
attention to the number of rental apartments in the area.

For the record, Chairman Rosenstock stated the public hear-
ing they held prior to these discussions encompassed all
three items (Boynton Beach Boulevard PCD, Knuth Road PCD,
and Tara Oaks PUD). ~e wanted everyone to understand THE
PUBLIC HEARING WAS CLOSED.
Discussion ensued about the intensity of land use. The
"Applicants Response" to issues raised by the City Staff is
attached to the original copy of these minutes in the Office
of the City Clerk as "Addendum BB.
Mr. Kilday stated the water usage was significantly reduced
by the incorporation of the three projects. In response to
Mrs. Greenhouse's question as to whether he could accommo-
date Moderate Density, Mr. Kilday said the project was
approved for 78 units with a condition that Knuth Road
along the entire frontage of the property should be
constructed. ~e stated the project could not be built and
support that. Other lots would end up with their back yards
against Knuth Road. In this case, the back yards will be
on the lake and the driveways will be on Knuth Road.
M~. Kilday e~plained how they cut costs down so they could
build Knuth 'Road.
Mr. Cannon asked whether Mr. Kilday was willing to let the
City write that the basic arrangement of the land use is in
the plan itself and also that the maximum building height is
two stories, as indicated on the plan. Mr. Kilday answered,
"Yes, we are." With those conditions, Mr. Cannon said the
main question would be the density created as far as planning
for the water and sewer area. If they limit it to two
stories and the uses on the south 1/3rd to recreational,
institutional, open space, and water retentions it would
take care of most of the land use conflict problems.
Vice Chairman Lehnertz recalled Mrs. Rossi mentioned there
is a significant populations of gopher tortoises along with
associated food, and he asked her to indicate the locations
on the overlay. Mrs. Rossi apprised the Members the gopher
tortoises and assocLated food are located wes~ of the
racque~ ball court and in Clipper Cove. She told Mrs.
Greenhouse it would be better for them to be located on the
site rather than off the site, and she informed Mr. Richter
scrub habitat cannot be moved very successfully. Mrs. Rossi
40

BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA JUNE 12, 1990
explained. Mr. Kilday indicated where the scrub area
occurs. He guessed the main feeding area for the tortoises
was on the south side of the property.
Mrs. Greenhouse wondered how the Board could make sure, if
this is approved, that the Lakes of Tara people would be
looking at a church and a lake as opposed to being subjected
to a higher density. Mr. Cannon replied that was why he
suggested to Mr. Kilday that they write into the plan the
parameters of the development property as far as the build-
ing height and the uses of the southern 1/3rd of the PUD.
Mr. Kilday again said he had no objection to that.
A woman in the audience alluded to the northern end.
Mr. Kilday stated that one gentleman (Mr. Groelle) had
misrepresented virtually everything he said in the meet-
ings. As ro the two homes to the north, he stated they will
maintain a minimum 40 foot setback off our north property
line. (See Addendum R attached to the original copy of these
minutes.)
Mr. Cannon asked Mr. Kilday whether he would be willing to
let the City write the buffer requirements on the north end
of the Comprehensive Plan also. Mr. Kilday answered that
was fine with him. Mr. Cannon explained that way, if they
want to make an amendment, they will have to go back to the
permitted procedure, which is not an easy process.
Vice Chairman Lehnertz inquired whether something could be
worked into the language to edge the developer toward pre-
serving the gopher tortoises on the site. By State law,
Mr. Cannon said the gopher tortoises have to be relocated.
Vice Chairman Lehnertz called attention to the fact it would
be preferable to keep them on the site. Mr. Kilday had no
problem with the condition that they try to preserve them on
site as much as possible, subject to the limitations and
restrictions of the Florida Game and Fresh Water Pish
Commission.

following comments:
Police Department
"1. Comply with Building Security Code (5-8G). 2. South exit also be made two-way in and out.

Adolfo J. Cotilla, Jr., AIA, 4300 North University Drive,
Suite B-I04, Fort Lauderdale, FL 33351, agreed to most of
the staff comments. He informed the Members that a new site
plan was submitted, and the comments were just made avail-
able to the applicant today. The applicant had a problem
with the sidewalk requirements. A sidewalk had been shown
on the original plan, which was an oversight, so it was
deleted. Mro Cotilla objected to putting in a sidewalk
because a combination sidewalk and bicycle path is across
the street.
Michael J. Toil, Development Manager, Quantum Corporate

PID had provided, through the site plan approval process, a

pedestrian access plan. In conjunction with the completion
of all of the infrastructure work, they provided all
pedestrian access, which was mostly bicycle paths and side-
walks along N. W. 22nd Avenue. Mr. Cannon advised this was
an issue which went back to the Development of Regional
Impact (DRI), which was approved subject to them providing a
combination of a pedestrian/bike path system. It did not
specify that it had to be along both sides of every road.
The DRI conditions supersede the City's Code requirements.
Mrs. Greenhouse called attention to comment 5 from the
Planning Department (Addendum ~H), which said the sidewalk
on the west side of Park Ridge Boulevard should be added to
the site plan. Mr. Cannon advised that comment should be
deleted.
Mr. Cotilla pointed out there were other comments that had
been addressed before, one other comment he wished t~ bring
to the Board's attention was the establishmen~ of a typical
greenbelt. (See comment 4 from the Building Department in
Addendum EE.) The applicant did not agree with the comment
where they have to submit a typical greenbelt for all like
peripheral lots. Mr. Cotiila stated they already made the
changes on the plans to make sure there is a greenbelt.
Since this was an issue that applied to the entire park as
far as the construction of the peripheral greenbelts,
Mr. Cannon thought the Board should make a recommendation to
the City Commission as to whether they think the developer
should provide the greenbelts for the entire property as
required by the Code. and let the City Commission decide
whether they are going to make Quantum provide greenbelts in
their entirety a~ this tim~ or~ whether they can be
constructed on a lot by lot basis. Mr. Richter thought
Quantum Park had
~a~ exceeded ~he greenbelt requirements,
based on their DRI. A ter discussion, Mr. C~nnon advised
Chairman Rosenstock there is a Code requireme,nt that they
p~ovide a peripheral greenbelt, but the Code is unclear as
to who has to build ~hem a~d when. The issuei has to be
resolved.
There was further discussion about the greenbelt.
Mr. Aguila suggested the Board approve the request, subject
no staff comments, and request the City Commission to
address the greenbelt as a separate issue. Mr. Finizio
interjected that had already been agreed upon. At every
staff meeting, each site plan that comes through is to pro-
vide a greenbelt. Chairman Rosenstock asked i~ he was
specifically referring to Quantum Park. Mr. Finizio
- 45 -
MINUTES PLANNING & ZONING BOARD
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA JUNE 12, 1990
confirmed that was correct. Mr. Cotilla replied that was
exactly what they were doing. They were providing a green-
belt for each site plan that comes in.
Mr. Cannon asked whether it was on record anywhere that the
City Commission ever took action that that's their policy for
the entire park. Mr. Finizio answered it was evident it was
the City Commission's policy. They've been responsible for
putting the greenbelts in from Day One. M_r~ Cannon
reiterated they should have formal action from the City
Commission that this is their desire., so the Board does not
have to go through this for every lot.
Motion
Mr. Richter moved that the Board recommend to the City
Commission that Quantum Park develop on a lot by lot basis
the greenbelt that is required and already stipulated to be
implemented by the developer. Mr. ~oward seconded the
motion, and the motion carried 7-0.
Vice Chairman Lehnertz understood Quantum either did not
have a particular buyer for this, or they had someone they
could no~ disclose to the Board. Mr. Cotilla confirmed that
was correct. Uice Chairman Lehnertz drew attention to
comment 96 from the Planning Department (Addendum EH). He
had a serious concern because electronics research and manu-
facturing in particular happen to be violators of releasing
carbon tetrachloride. Vi~e Chairman Lehnertz wondered
whether that would be covered by the Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA). After further discussion, Mr.
Cannon informed him under the City's Code, electronics
manufacturing goes through e~vironmental review. There

would allow cars to back out into the access aisle. At that
point, there is limited visibility.
Mr. Glidden stated he reviewed the staff comments. With
regard to the 12 parking spaces at the north entry, Mr.
Glidden said one reason this center has had such difficulty
in becoming vital had to do with its proximity of parking
to the retail spaces in the center. His client wanted to
get some parking spaces to serve the retail on the north end
of the building. Mr. Glidden thought the comment from the
City Staff was partly geared around a zoning Ordinance that
requires a 100 foot stacking when you are coming off a dedi-
cated right-of-way. The north mall's entrance is a private
driveway and not a dedica%ed right-of-way.
As a reasonable compromise, Mr. Glidden suggested taking the
northernmost 80 feet of that entrance drive and eliminating
eight parking spaces, leaving those to be access on the bank
side of the parking area. After they get past 80 ~eet in
the stacking distance, Mr. Glidden asked that they be
allowed to have four or five car spaces for the retail.
Mr. Finizlo interjected it should stay exactly the way it is
for safety reasons. Chairman Rosenetock asked about the
comment Ms. Heyden just made about Visibility when you are
backing out. Mr. Glidden called attention to the last
project and said there were five points of access to that
site. Everyone had cars backing out onto the entrance
driveway. He thought if they looked at every project the
City has, depending on traffic level~s, they would find having
80 ~eet into the p~oject should not be an issue. Mr.
Glidden said they could use the 80 f~et to observe every-
thing that is going on inside the property line. He stressed
their need to get parking service to the building and drew
attention to their inability to turn left into the rear of
the building. Mr. Glidden was also ~rying to.get parking in
front of the retail.
Mark Fuller, Graphic Designer for the project, proposed a
free standing flag ribbon. Their only identification for
the project occurs on Congress Avenue at the center of the
project. Mr. Fuller said they were showing four signs and
he indicated their locations. After discussion about the
s~gns, Mr. Cannon advised if the signa~e did not meet the
Code, only the City Commission could grant a variance.
Mr. Cannon asked whether the TRB said these would be major
driveways. He wondered what the basis was for the 100 foot

Mike Swenson, Landscape Architect, wanted to clarify that
this was a rehabilitation of existing landscape. He was not
sure whether the irrigation was on City water or not but
wanted that investigated before they go to the City
Commission. Mr. Swenson wanted to keep the irrigation on
the system it is now on. There was discussion.
Mr. Glidden did not want to revamp the irrigation system.
They are changing driveway areas and landscape materials.
It would not be economically feasible to change the
irrigation system at this time. Mr. Cannon said they would
find out wha~ it is on now, and it will be resolved at the
City Commission meeting.
If the irrigation is currently on the City water system,
Chairman Rosenstock asked the applicant to investigate the
feasibility of removing it from the City water system and
putting it on a well system. Mr. Swenson replied they will
do that and make that recommendation to the client.

SUBJECT: Bethesda Memorial Hospital - Master Plan Modification
File No. 492
Charles B. Koval, Esquire, agent for Bethesda Memorial Hospital.
Inc., has requested a modification to the previously approved
mas~er plan for the Bethesda Memorial Hospital Planned Unit
Development. The modification requested is to eliminate a
proposed 25,000 square foot office building and to raze two
former residences to allow for the construction of a new day care
center, as outlined in the attached correspondence in Exhibit
"A". The approved list of permitted uses for the Bethesda
Memorial Hospital Planned Unit Development includes a day care
center limited to children of hospital employees.
The procedure for approving master plan modifications in planned
uni~ developments is twofold. First, the City Commission must
make a determination as to whether or not the changes requested
are substantial in nature. A determination of substantial change
on the part of the City Commission, which has sole discretion in
this matter, would require a new application for PUD. On the
other hand, a determination of no substantial change allows the
forwarding of the request to the Planning and Zoning Board. The
Planning and Zoning Board then may approve the request. This
procedure appears in Appendix B, Section 12 of the Code of
Ordinances.
With respect to the change requested by Mr. Koval, the Technical
Review Board (TRB) met on Thursday, May 17, 1990, to review the
plans and documents submitted, and they offer for your considera-
tion, a recommendation that the City Commission make a finding of
no substantial change for the requested modification, and that
the Planning and Zoning Board approve this request as submitted.

File No. 453
Section 5-145(c)(4) of the Code of Ordinances requires that when
a variance to Section 5, Article X, Parking Lots is requested,
the Technical Review Board must forward to the Planning and
Zoning Board s recommendation, and that the recommendation
forwarded is to be made part of the public hearing proceedings.
To that end, this memo is forwarded, consistent with 5-145(c)(4).
Dale Construction Corporation, agent for Shirley Matthews,
property owner, has requested a variance to Sections 5-142(h}(1)
"Driveways" and 5-142(i)(1) "Dimensional Requirements" of Article
X-Parking Lots. Section 5~142(h)(1) requires that "parking lot
driveway§ shall be designed to provide a minimum width of twelve
(12) feet for one-way drives and twenty (20) feet for two-way
drives at the right-of-way line". The applicant is req~lesting
relief from the requirement to provide a 12 foot wide driveway on
the east side of the building and is proposing that a driveway
with a width of 10 feet, 8 inches be provided. Section
5-142(i)(1) requires that "parking lots shall be designed to meet
or exceed the dimensional requirements for stalls, driveways and
access aisles as provided for in City standards". These
standards were adopted in resolution form by the City Commission.
The standard that the applicant is requesting relief from is the
requirement to provide a 27 foot wide access aisle for ninety
degree parking. Specifically, the applicant is requesting to be
allowed to Provide a 24.5 foot wide access aisle at the rear of
the building, a 16.5 foot wide access aisle on the west side of
the building, and a 19.6 foot wide access aisle on the east side
of the building. The existing office building is located on the
south side of S.E. 23rd AvenUe, between South Seacrest Boulevard
and S.E. 1st Street. For an explanation of the code requirement,
the nature of the variance requested and the variance
justification, please refer to the attached Notice of Public
Hearing and application.
On Tuesday, June 5, 1990, the Technical Review Board (TRB) met to
review the plans and documents submitted and to formulate a
recommendation with regard tq the variance requested.. After
review and discussion, the TRB recommended that the variance
requests be approved as submitted. The basis for this
recommendation is as follows:
There is currently no parking lot to serve this
building and vehicles park in a haphazard manner in
front of the building and along S.E. 23rd Avenue. The
proposed parking lot will significantly reduce the site
hazards and unsightliness associated with the existing
parking situation.
Due to the existing constraints imposed by the small
lot size, the shape of the existing building footprint,
and the right-of-way dedication (15 feet) required for

S.E. 23rd Avenue, the subject variances are necessary
for a parking lot to be constructed on the site Which
meets the overall intent of the ordinance.
Owing to the special conditions peculiar to the site
(see above), the applicant would experience an
unnecessary hardship if deprived of the right to

Requests for Annexation, Future Land Use Element
Amendment, Rezcning and Comprehensive Plan Text
Amendment Submitted by Kilday & ~ssociates for
Michael A. $chroeder, Trustee
(Boynton Beach Boulevard PCD) - File No. 493
Sun~nary~ Kieran J. Kilday, agent for Michael A-~ Sohroeder,
Trustee, is requesting that a 14.76 acre parcel be annexed into
the City, rezoned from AR (Aqrioultural Residential) in Palm
Beach County to a PCD (Planned Cor~mereial Development) and that
the Future Land Use Plan designation for this parcel be amended
from "Residential 8 (units per acre)" in Palm Beach County to
"Local Retail commercial" in the City. In addition, the
applicant has submitted an application for' a Text A~end~ent to
Area 7.k. of the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Element
Suppor~ Documents, which currently reads as follows:
7.k. Unincorporated Parcels on South Side of
Boynton Beach Blvd.
These parcels constitute an unincorporated
pocket which should be annexed. The first
row of lots lying to the west of the present
city limits, having an east-west dimension
of approximately 300 feet should be placed
in the General Commercial land use category
and C-4 zoning district. These parcels
should be req~/ired to dedicate right-of-way
and construct the adjacent street consistent
with the requirements that were placed on the
U.S. Post Office. The commercial parcels
should be developed so as to be compatible
with the future residential use of the
property which lies to the west. Those
parcels which lie further west should be
placed in the High Density Residential land
use category. Commercial development on
this parcel should not be permitted since
a single-family ~ubdivision lies immediately
to the west and adequate commercial property
exists elsewhere in the vicinity. Furthermore,
building heights on this parcel should be
limited to 2 stories (25 feet] within 150 feet
and 3 stories within 400 feet of these single-
family lots.
The amendment to Area 7.k. would be necessary to allow for the
issuance of a Development Order, pursuant to Chapter 163 of the
Florida Statutes, s~nce the proposed development is not
- consistent wi~h this section of the adopted Comprehensive Plan.
The subject parcel occupies 656 feet of frontage on West Boynton
Beach Boulevard, between the U.S. Post Office and the Stonehaven
PUD, a/k/a Banyan Creek (see attached location map in Exhibit
"A"). Currently, the property is heavily vegetated and is

occupied by substantial muck deposits. The property is also
occupied by an existing single-family residenee. The proposed
use of this property, if rezoned, would be to develop it for a

8. Boynton Beach Ordinance a89-38:1989 Comprehensive Plan.
These regulations have been listed for informational purposes.
Paraphrasing, these regulations require newspaper advertisements,
public hearings before the Planning and Zoning Board and City
Commission, review by the Department of Community Affairs, and
Commission adoption of ordinances to annex, amend the
Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Element/Text, and rezone.
These procedures take approximately 8 to 9 months to complete.
Planned Commercial Development Standards: There are three
standards listed in the PCD regulations which affect the location
and ability to serve from a planning perspective. These three
standards are:
Relation to Major Transportation F~l~tie~
Standard number one ~uggests that PCDs should be located
where access to major roadways is afforded and where traffic
levels generated in residential areas will be acceptable.
The proposed PCD does in fact meet this criteria,
Roadway Improvements and Utility Extensions
Standard number two suggests that the applicant shall be
responsible for constructing and dedicating all
infrastructure necessary to serve the site, including the
dedication of additional rights-of-way and the maintenance
of roadway capacity when applicable. It can be assumed that
the applicant will construct all necessary water and sewer
mains which are needed to serve the site. In addition, the
applicant is proposing to construct separate left, through,
and right turn lanes for the driveway at the intersection of
West Boynton Beach Boulevard and Winchester
Page 4 of ADDENDUMH
PLANNING DEPT.

Chairman & Members, Planning &
June 7, 199.0
Page 5
3. The Physical Character of the Site
Standard number three is concerned with the environmental
aspects of the site. The geotechnical report submitted by
the applicant indicates that there is a s~bstantial quantity
of peat and muck on the property, with a depth of up to 16
inches, which must be removed and replac~d with compact
fill. Concerning vegetation, the site is primarily occupied
by dense exotics and open grass area. HoWever, t~ere is an
area in the northwest corner of the site which contains some
Royal Palms, Queen P~tms, Citrus, Avocado and Orchid Trees,
which must be preserve~, relocated, or replaced, in
conformance with the requirements of the Tree Preservation
Code. Taking into account the above, it can be reported
that the site is appropriate for the suggested development
from an environmental point of view.
Economic Standards: In connection with the Planned Commercial
District Regulations, two types of economic analyses are
required: A market s~udy and employment projections. The market
study concludes that the proposed development is economically
feasibl~ {see Exhibit "C")% The employment projectionsindicate
that approximately 290 employees will be needed for.the proposed
shopping center.
Issues/Discussion: Section 9.c.7 of Appendix A, Zoning, of the
Code o~ Ordinances, requires the evaluation of plan
amendment/re~oning requests against criteria related to the
impacts which would result from the approval of such requests.
These criteria and an evaluation of the impacts which would
result from the proposed development are as follows:
a. Whether the proposed rezoning would be consistent with
applicable Comprehensive Plan policies. The Planning
Department shall also recommend limitations or require-
ments Which would have to be imposed on subsequent
development of the property, in order to comply with
policies contained in the Comprehensive Plan.
The proposed land use amendment/rezoning would not be consistent
with Area 7.k. of the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Element
Support Documents. However, the applicant has submitted an
application for a Comprehensive Plan Text Amendment to Area 7.k.
to amend the existing language to accommodate the proposed
development, as outlined in a previous section of this memorandum
entitled "Comprehensive Plan - Future Land Use Map and Text".
The Discussion of Supply and Demand for Commercial Land in the
Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Element Support Documents
(Volume No. 1) indicates that there may be up to 198 acres of
excess commercial land at build-out. However~ this figure may be
reduced to a surplus of only 30 acres when certain adjustments
are taken into consideration. Thus, it was concluded that the
supply of commercial land in the Boynton Beach market area will
match the demand. In addition, this section of the Plan also
states the following:
"The Future Land Use Plan which is proposed for the City and
areas to be annexed by the city will acco~odate all of
anticipated demand for commercial land through build-out.
Therefore, the City should not change the land use to

Policy 1.19.6 of the Comprehensive Plan stat~s: to
Plan adoption, do not allow commercial ~ ~re~ ~ ~ greater
than th~ demand which has been projected, unles~ = can be
demonstrated that a particular property is unsuitable for other
uses, ora geographic need exists which cannot be fulfilled by
existing commercially-zoned property, or no other suitable
property for a commercial use exists for which a need can be
demonstrated, and the commercial use would comply with all other
applicable comprehensive plan policies". The proposed rezoning
would notbe consistent with this policy.
Concerning the location ~f commercial land, thisseotion of the
Plan states the following:
"Commercial land uses west of Interstate 95 are dominated by
-th? regional mall, and its satellite stores and offices.
Neighborhood shopping centers and office buildings are
located in the vicinity of most major intersections. The
City should continue its policy of encouraging commercial
uses to be located at intersections, and discouraging strip
commercial development, due to the aesthetic and traffic
safety problems that strip development creates. Further-
more, allowing additional commercial land use in the
vic~inity of the Boynton Beach Mall would be likely to cause
traffic levels on roads in the vicinity to fall below
established levels of service. Commercial development
beyond that which is shown on the proposed',?~and use plan
shOUld be permitted only if the City, or the applicant for
development applies for a lower level of service, by seeking
to have properties in the vicinity approved as a regional
activity center and an Areawide
Impact." (pp. 40-41)
In addition to the above, there will be a further discussion
concerning consistency with applicable Comprehensive Plan
policies in subsequent sections of this memorandum. At the
end of this memorandum, in the section entitled, "Project
Approval", the Planning Department shall recommend limitations
and requirements which should be imposed on subsequent develop-
ment of the property, if this request is approved, in order to
comply with policies contained in the Comprehensive Plan~
Concerning consistency with the County's Comprehensive Plan, the
Palm Beach County Planning Division has been notified of the
proposed annexation. However, comments have not been received as
of this date.
b. Whether the proposed rezoning would be contrary to the
established land use pattern, or would create an
isolated district unrelated to adjacent and nearby
distnicts, or would constitute a grant of special
privilege to an individual property owner as contrasted
with protection of the public welfare.

AS outlined in Area 7.k.t of the Comprehensive Land
Use Element Support Documents, "Commercial this
parcel should not be permitted, since a
lies immediately to the west and property
exists elsewhere in the vicinity". In addition, the section of
the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Ele~.ent Support Documents
that discusses, the location of commercial land states the
following with respect to further commercial in the
vicinity of the Boynton Beach Mall:
"The City should continue its policy of encouraging
commercial uses to
be located at intersections,1 and
discouraging strip commercial development,' due to the
aesthetic and traffic safety problems that strip development
creates. Furthermore, allowing additional commercial land
use in the vicinity of the Boynton Beach Mall would be
likely to cause traffic levels on roads in the vicinity to
fall below established levels of service. Commercial
development beyond that which is shown on the proposed land
use plan should be permitted only if the City, or the
applicant for development applies for a lower level of
seryice, by seeking to have properties in the vicinity
approved as a regional activity center and an Areawide
Development of Regional Impact". (pp 40-41)
With respect to the above, the proposed rezoning would be
contrary to the established land use pattern and would arguably
constitute a grant of special privilege to an individual property
owner as contrasted with protection of the public welfare.
c. Whether changed or changing conditions make the
proposed rezoning desirable.
There has been no significant change in conditions in the
vicinity of this property since the adoption of the Comprehensive
Plan which would make the proposed rezoning desirable.
d. Whether the proposed rezoning would be compatible with
utility systems, roadways, and other public facilities.
The proposed rezoning would be compatible with water and sewer
systems. Pursuant to the Traffic Impact Review prepared by
Walter H. Keller, Jr., Inc., dated May 29, 1990, a revised
traffic impact analysis should be submit=ed which includes a
revised analysis based on,all assured construction projects, an
appropriate assignment to Lawrence Road and Military Trail; an
analysis of Mall Road (Winchester Park Boulevard) and revised
peak hour turning movements on Figure 5. The applicant's
analysis should also address the finding by the Palm Beach County
Engineering Department (see letter dated June 5, 1990) that
Boynton Beach Boulevard from Military Trail to E1 Clair Ranch
Road would be over capacity. With regard to the County
Engineer's comment that the link of Boynton Beach Boulevard from
Old Boynton Road to 1-95 will be over capacity, it should be
noted that this link will be improved by Palm Beach Coun=y,
however, this link will still be over capacity according to the
findings in Mr. Keller's report. In addition, the proposed
rezoning will consume road capacity that will be needed to allow
for commercial development of other parcels in this area of the
City which are designated for commercial land use on the Future
Land Use Element of the Comprehensive Plan, as outlined in the
attached supplement dated June 6, 1990, from Walter Keller in
Exhibit "D".

Consistent with various policies contained withfn~the Traffic
Circulation Element of the Comprehensive Plan, a 'copy of the
developer's traffic impact analysis was submitted to Palm
Beach County for courtesy review and comment. Among other
issues, the County does not consider this applica~on to have
been complete prior =o Februar~ 1, 1990, the adoptio~ date of the
Municipal Implementation Ordinance (see copy of
correspondence dated June 5, 1990 from th
Engineer in Exhibit "D"), the County
e. ~ether the proposed rezoning would be compat/ble with
the current and future use of ad3acent and nearby
properties, or would affect the property values of
adjacent and nearby properties.
As outlined in Policy 1.17.1 of the Comprehensive Plan, th~
language for Area 7.k., and the discussion coD~erning supply,
demand and location of con%mercial property in the Future Land Use
Element Support Documents, the proposed rezoning would not be
compatible with the current and future use of adjacent and nearby
properties. Since the proposed development would hav~ a negative
impact on property values in the Stoneha~en PUD (a/k/a Banyan
Creed), .due to the activities that take place at the rear of a
shopping center. Typical characteristics of shopping centers
that would be incompatible with nearby residential uses include
noise from trucks, noise from loading and unloading activities,
noise due to unloading of dumpsters and removal of compac=ors,
noise from mechanical equipment, odors from dumpsters (which can
be detected up =o 200 feet away), glare from parking lot
lighting, trash and litter accumulation, and the unpleasa/%t
aesthetics that are typical for the rear of a shopping center.
f. Whether the property is physically and economically
developable under the existing zoning.
Under the existing Agricultural-Residential Zoning in Palm Beach
County, the property could he utilized for a variety of
agricultural or conservation purposes. Single-family dwellings
are permitted on a minimum lot area of 5 acres.
If annexed and developed as a multi-family residential
subdivisIon or planned unit development, consistent with the
current "High Density Residential" land use designation in the
City, the property could be developed for a maximu~ cf 159
dwelling units.
Concerning whether the property ~s economically developable Under
the City's "High Density Residential,, land use designation, the
applicant has not submitted any documentation that indicates that
the property could not be developed economically for 159
multi-family dwelling units. Therefore, it is assumed that the
residentialPr°perty coulddevelopment.be economically developed for a multi-family
g. Whether the proposed rezoning is of a scale which is
reasonably related to the needs of the neighborhood and
the City as a whole.
Based on the discussion in item "a" concerning Area 7.k. and the
analysis of Supply, demand, and location of commercial land uses
in the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Element Su or
Documents, it i.s arguable that the proposedrezoning is not P~
scale which 1s reasonably related to the needs of the
neighborhood and the City as a whole. Furthermore, approval of
additional retail development in this area of the City may limit
and compete with redevelopment in the Central Business District
along U.S. 1, and along Boynton Beach Boulevard east of 1-95.

h. Whether there are adequate
for the proposed use, in dis
already allowed.
As outlined in the discussion of supply
land in the Future Land Use Element the
Comprehensive Plan, "the Future Land
for the City and areas to be annexed by the City
all of t~e anticipated demand for commercial~ through
build-out". This paragraph of the Plan further "the
City ~hould not change the land use to
beyond that which is shown on the proposed Land Use Plan,
except for minor boundary adjustments, small i or
commercial uses of a highly specialized have
special locationat or site requirements, and ~ cannot be
easily accommodated on already designated areas".
This discussion is formalized in Policy .6 of the
Comprehensive Plan. A further detailed analysis of the supply
and demand of commercial land is Contained within th~ Future Land
Use Eiement Support DocUments (Volume No. 1) of the ~mprehensive
Co~olusions/Recommendations: The Planning Department: ~e¢ommends
that'the requests for Future Land Use Element Amen.dmen~, Rezoning

recommendation is based on the following summary~ Of~ findings
contained within the staff report: ' ~"
1. The proposed land use element amendment/rezoning-would not
be consistent with the policy for Area 7.k.' of the
Comprehensive Plan Future Land
DocUments;
2. The Discussion of Supply and Demand for commercial Land in
the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Element Support
Documents indicates that there may be anywhere from 30 to
198 acres of excess commercial land at build-out. Thus, the
supply is expected to match the demand. This section of the
Plan and Policy 1.t9.6 also state that the F~ture Land Use
Plan for the City and areas to be annexed by the City will
accommodate all of the anticipated demand for commercial
land through build-out and, therefore, the City should not
further change the land use to commercial categories, except
for minor boundary adjustments;
3. The discussion for the Location of Commeroiat'Land in the
Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Element Support DocUmen=s
states that further strip commercial development should not
be allowed in this area of the City due to the aesthetic and
traffic safety problems that are created and that traffic
levels on roads in the vicinity would likely fall below
established levels of service. This section of the Plan
further states that commercial development beyond that which
is shown on the proposed land use plan should be permitted
only if the City, or the applicant for development applies
for a lower level of service, by seeking ~o have properties
in the vicinity approved as a regional activity center and
an Areawide Development of Regional Impact;
4. The proposed rezoning would be contrary to the established

Requests for Annexation, Future Land Use Element
Amendment, Rezoning, and Comprehensive Plan text
Amendment Submitted by Kilday & Associates for
Elsie A. Winchester, Trustee
(Knutb Road PCD) - File No. 494
summary: Kieran J. Kilday, agent for Elsie A. Winchester,
Trustee, is requesting that a 13.87 acre parcel be annexed into
the City, rezoned from AR (Agricultural Residential) in Palm
Beach County to a PCD (Planned Commercial Developmen=), and that
the Future Land Use Plan designation for this parcel be amended
from "Commercial 3" in Palm Beach County to "Local Retail
Cormmercial," in the city. In addition, '~the applicant has
submitted an application for a Text Amendmen~ ~o Area 7.j, of the
comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Element supporu Documents,
which currently reads as follows:
7.j. Parcel at Southwest Corner of Boynton Beach Boulevard
and Knuth Road
This is a 14 acre parcel which is currently approved
in the unincorporated County as a golf and tennis facility.
If developed as such, a Recreational Land Use and Zoning
designation would be appropriate. It is likely, however,
that the property will be developed for more intensive uses.
Regardless of how the properuy is developed, the owner or
developer should be required to submit an application for
annexation. The City should permit Local Retail Commercial
on the northern 225 feet of this property, in accordance
with the adopted Boynton Beach Boulevard plan. The
remainder of the property should be placed in the Moderate
Density Residential Land Use category. Building heights on
this proeprty should be limited, howeves, to 2 st~ories (25)
feet, since 1 and 2 story residences lie in close proximity
~o the south and southeast.
The amendment to Area 7.j. would be necessary ~o allow for the
issuance of a Development Order, pursuanu to Chapter 163 of the
Florida Statutes, s~nce the proposed developmen~ is not
consistent with this section of the adopted Comprehensive Plan.
The subject parcel occupies 613 feet of frontage on West Boynuon
Beach Boulevard and 985 feet of frontage on Knuth Road. (see
attached location map in E~hibit "A"). The property is currently
vacant and is occupied by exotics and several stands of slash
pines. The proposed use ef this properuy, if rezoned, would be
to develop it for a 120,000 sq~/are foot shopping center,
including two outparcels [see attached masuer plan in Exhibit
"B").
Surrounding Land Use and Zoning (see attached location map
Exhibit "A"}: Abutting th~ subject parcel ~o uhe nortk, is a 106
foot wide right-of-way for West Boyn=on Beach Boulevard.
Abutting the subject parcel to the east is the existing 60 foot
wide right-of-way for Knuth Road. Further ~o the east, across
Knuth Road, are the Plaz~ West and Knuth Road office buildings
zoned C-1 (Office Professional), and the Stonehaven Planned Unit

Development zoned PUE, which consists of single-family zero lot
line units (a/k/a Banyan Creek). Abutting the subject parcel
to the south and west is the Quail Ridge golf course, zoned AR
(Agricultural Residential] in Palm Beach County.
Proposed Rezoning (see master plan in Exhibit '~"): According ~o
Section 6-F.L Df Appendix A, Zoning, the purpose of the PCD
zoning district "is to provide a zoning classification for
commercial developments that wilt better satisfy current demands
for commercially zoned lands by encouraging development which
will reflect chan~es in the concepts ~nd ~echnology of land
development and relate the development of land to th~ specific
site, to co~serve natural amenities and to allow for the
mitigation of negative impacts which result frem land
development.
The proposed development ih a 120,000 square foot reuail shopping
center which includes two ou~parcels: a financial institution and
a restaurant. A ten foot wide greenbelt is provided along the
northern boundary, and along a portion of the eastern property
boun~ry~-where the subject pareel abuts nqn-residential zoning
categories. A twenty-five foot wide greenbelt is provided along
portlo~s of the east, south, and west property boundaries where
the subject parcel abuts residential-zoned parcels in Bo!rnton
Beach (Stonehaven) PUD and Palm Beach County (Quail Ridge North).
The proposed perimeter greenbelt conforms to the requirements of
the PCD zoning district regulations. Access is provided by a
driveway onto West Boynton Beach Boulevard and ~wo driveways on~o
Knuth Road.
Comprehensive Plan - Future Land Use Map and Text: The propert~
in question is currently shown on the Future Land Use ~lement for
the R~serve Annexation Area as a combination' of ' Moderate Densit~
Residential" and "Local Retail commercial", so an amendment to
the ~ut~re Land Use Element to "Local Retail Commercial , as
requested by the applicant, would be necessary. Im addition,
Area 7. j. of the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Element
Support Documents contains the following language:
7.j. Parcel ~ Southwest Corner o~ Boynton Beach Boulevard
and Knuth Road
This is a 14 a~re parcel which ~s currently approved
in the unincorporated County as a golf and tennis facility.
If developed as such, a Recreational Land Use and Zoning
designation would be appropriate. It is likely, however,
that the property will be de~eloped for more intensive uses.
Regardless of how the property is developed, the owner or
developer should be required to submit an application for
annexation. The City should permit Local Retail Commercial
on the northern 225 feet of this property, in accordance
with the adopted Boyn~on Beach Boulevard plan. The
remainder of the property should be placed in the Moderate
Densit~ Residential Land Use category. Building heights on
this proper~y should be limited, however, to 2 stories (25
feet), since 1 and 2 story residences lie in close proximity
to the south and southeast.
The applicant has submitted an application for a Comprehensive
Plan Text Amendment to Area 7.j. above. The proposed amendment
reads as follows:

since i and 2 s=ory residences lie in close'proximity ~o the
south and southeas=.
An amendment to Area ?.j. would be necessary, given the proposed
nature cf the development.
Procedure: These applications for annexation, amendment to the
~ ~and U~e Element of the Comprehensive Plan, tex~
amendment, and rezoning are being processed consistent with State
Statutes and Bolrnton Beach Codes, Ordinances and Resolutions as
follows:
F.S. 163.3161: Local Government Comprehensive
Planning and Land Developmen= Regulation Act.
F.S. 166.041: Procedures for Adoption of
Ordinances and Resolutions~
3. F.S. 171.011: Municipal Annexation and
Contraction Act.
4. Bo!rnton Beach Code of Ordinances, Appendix A,
Section 3A5(e): Boundary and Zoning.
5. Boynton Beach Ordinance ~79-24.
6. Boynton Beach Resolution =76-X: Procedures
for Annexation.
Boynto~ Beach Code of Ordinances, Appendix A,
Section 9.C:' Comprehensive Plan Amendments/
Rezonings.
These regulations have been listed for informational purposes.
Briefly, these regulations require sewspaper advertisements,
public hearings before the Planning and Zoning Board and City
Commission, review by the Department of Community Affairs, and
Commission adoption of ordinances ~o annex, amend the
Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Element/Text, and rezone.
These procedures take approximately 8 =o 9 months to complete.
Planned Commercial Development Standards: There are three
standards listed in the PCD regulations which affect the location
and ability ~o serve from a planning perspective. These three
standards are:
Page 3 of ADDENDUM I
PLANNING DEPT. MEMORANDUM NO. 90-161
TO:
Chairman & Members, Planning & Zoning Board
June 8, 1990
Page 4
1. Relation to Major Transportation Facilities
Standard number one suggests that PCD's should be located
where access to ma~or roadways is afforded, and where
t~affic levels g~nerated in resideRtial areas will be
acceptable, The project meets the ma~or road access portion
of this standard. ~owever, with respect to traffic levels
generated in residential areas, the proposed shopping center
will likely increase the volume of commercial traffic on
Stenehav~n Drive, which links Knuth Road to Congress Avenue,
and ~erves as a bypass for the traffic signal at North
Congress Avenue and West Boynton Beach Boulevard.
2. Roadway Improvements and Utility Extensions
Standard nbu~ber two suggests that the applicant shall be
~esp~nsible for constructing and dedicating all
nfrastruot~re necessary to serve the site, including the
d~dication Of additional rights-of-way and the maintenance
of roadway capacity when al~licable. I~ can be assumed that
the applicant ,will consrruc~ all necessary water ~nd sewer
mains which ~are needed to serve the site. In addition, the
applicant is proposing the following road%ray improvements a~
the intersection of West Boynton Beach' Boulevard and Knuth
Road:
Lengthen the existing left turn lane
on Knuth Road, south approach, ~o
aoco~odate additional left turning
vehicles.
Signalize the intersection, when
warranted, as determined by the County
Engineer. Because of the close proximity
to the intersection with Mall Road
(winchester Park Boulevard), these ~wo
signals should be inter-connected.
3. The Physical Character of the Site
Standard number three is concerned with the environmental
aspects cf the site. The geotechnical data submitted by the
applicant indicates that the surficial soils are the
Basinqer Series which consist of nearly level, sandy soils
with rapid permeability. There are no significant organic
deposits on the site. Concerning vegetation, the site is
primarly occupied by open grassy areas wit~ several stands
of slash pines' existing on-site. The slash pines must be
preserved, relocated or replaced in conformace with the
requirements of the tree preservation code. Taking into
account the above, it can be reported that the site is
appropriate for the suggested development from an
environmental point of v~ew.
Economic Standards: In connection with the Planned Commercial
District Regulations, two types of economic analyses are
required: A market study and emplo!a~ent projections. The market
study concludes that the proposed development is economically
feasible (see Exhib:it '~"). The employment projections indicate
that approximately 320 mployees will be needed for the proposed
shopping center.

Issues/Discussion:
Secuion 9.c.7 of Appendix A, Zoning, of the Code of Ordinances,
requires the evaluation of plan amendment/rezoning requests
againsu criteria related ~o the impacts which would result from
the approval of such requests. These criteria and an evaluation
of the impacts which would result from the proposed development
are as follows:
a, Whether the proposed rezoning would be con-
sister~ with applicable Comprehensive Plan
Policies. The Planning Department shall
also recommend limitations or requirements
which would have to be imposed on subs~quenr
development of the property, in order ~o
comply with policies contained in the
Comprehensive Plan.
The proposed land use amendment/rezoning would not be consistent
with Area 7.j. of the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Element
Support Documents. However, the applicant has submitted an
application for a Comprehensive Plan Text Amendment tc Area 7.j.
uo amend the existing language to accommodate the proposed
devglopment, as outlined in a previous section of this memorandum
entitled "Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map and Text".
The Discussion of Supply and Demand for Commercial Land in the
Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Element Support Documents
(Volume NO. 1) indicates that there may be up uo 198 acres of
excess commercial land ar build-out. However, this figure may be
reduced uo a surplus of only 30 acres when certain adjustments
are taken into consideration. Thus, it was concluded that the
supply of commercial l~nd in the Boynton Beach market area will
match the demand. In addition, this section of the Plan also
states the follc~ing:
"The Future Land Use Plan which is proposed for the City and
areas to be annexed by the City will accommodate all of
anticipated demand for commercial land through build-out.
Therefore, the City should not change the land use to
commercial categories, beyond that which is shown on the
proposed Future Land Use Plan, except for minor boundary
adjustments, small infill parcels, or commercial uses of a
highly specialized nature, which have special locational or
site requirements, and therefore cannot be easily
accor~odated on already designated commercial area".
(page 40)
Policy 1.19.6 of ~the Comprehensive Plan states-. "Subsequent
Plan adoption, do not allow commerczal acreage which is greater
than the demand which has been projected, unless it can be
demonstrated that a particular property is unsuitable for other
uses, oz a geographic need exists which cannot be fulfilled by
existing commercially-zoned, property, or no other suitable
properuy for a commercial u~e exists for which a need can be
demonstrated, and the commercial use would comply with all other
applicable comprehensive plan policies." The proposed rezoning
would not be consistent with this policy.
Concerning the location of commercial land, this section of the
Plan states the following:
"Commercial land uses west of Interstate 95 are dominated by
the regional ~all, and its satellite stores and offices.
Neighborhood shopping centers and office
located in the vicinity of mos= major intersections. The
Page 5 of ADDENDUM
PLANNING DEPT. MEMORANDUM NO. 90-161
TO:
Chairman & Members, Planning & Zoning Board
June 8, 1990
Page 6
City should continue its policy of encouraging commercial
uses to be located at in=ersections~ and discouraging strip
commerelal development, due to the aesthetic and traffic
safety problems that strip developmen= creates.
Furthermore, allowing additional commercial land use in the
vicinity of the Bolrnton Beach Mall would be likely to cause
traffic levels on roads in the vicinity to fall below
established levels of service. Commercial development
.beyond that which is shown on the proposed land use plan
should be permitted only if the City, or the applicant for
development applies for a lower level of service, by seeking
to have properties in the vicinity approved as a regional
act%vity center and an Areawide Development of Regional
Impact". (pp 40-41) .
In addition no the above, there will be a further discussion
concerning consistency with applicable Comprehensive Plan
policies in subsequen= sections of this memorandum. At the end
of this memorandum, in the section entitled "Project Apnrova~"
t = '
he Planning Department shall recommend limitations and
requirements which should be imposed on subsequent development of
the property, if this request is approved, in order to comply
with policies contained in the Comprehensive Plan. '
Concerning consistency with the County's Comprehensive Plan, the
Palm Beach County Planning Division has been notified of the
proposed annexation. However, comments have not been received as
of this date.
Whether She proposed rezoning would be contrary
to the established land use pattern, or would
create an isolated district unrelated to adjacenr
and nearby districts, or would constitute a grant
of special privilege to an individual property
owner as contrasted with protection of the public
welfare.
As outlined in Area 7.j. of the Comprehensive Plan Future Land
Use Element Support Documenus, "the City should permit Local
Retail Commercial on the northern 225 feet of this property and
the remainder of the proper=y should be placed in the Moderate
Density Residential Land Use Category". In addition, the section
of the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Element Support
Documents that discusses the location of commercial land states
the following with respec= to further commercial development in
the vicinity of the Boynton Beach Mall:
The City should continue its policy of encouraging
commercial uses to be located a~ intersections, and
discouraging strip commercial development, due to the
aesthetic and traffic safety problems that strip development
creaues. Furthermore, allowing additional commercial land
use in the vicinity of the Boynton Beach Mall would be
likely to cause traffic levels on roads in the vicinity to
fall below established levels of service. Commercial
development beyond that which is shown on the proposed land
use plan shouid be permitted only ii the City, or the
applicant for development applies for a lower level of
service by seeking to have properties in the vicinity
approved as a regional activity center and an Areawide
Developmen= of Regional Impact".

With respect to the above, the proposed rezoning would be
contrary to the sstablished land use pattern and would arguably
constitute a grant of specialprivilege to an individual property
owner as contrasted with proteetion of the public welfare.
c. Whether changed or changing conditions make
the proposed rezoning desirable.
There has been no significant change in conditions zn the
vicinity of this property, since the adoption of the
Comprehensive Plan which wmuld make the proposed rezoning
desirable.
~rnether the proposed rezoning would be
compatible with utility systems, roadways,
and other public facilities.
The proposed rezoning would be compatible with water
and sewer systems, Concerning roadways, The Traffic
Impact Review prepared by Walter H.- Keller, Jr., Inc.
indicates that the applicant's analysis of impacted
roadways is incomplete and should be revised. A copy
of Mr. Keller's report can be found in Exhibit "D" of
this memorandum. The proposed rezoning will also consume road
capacity that will be needed to allow for commercial development
of other parcels in this area of the City which are designated
for co~uercial land use on the Future Land Use Element of the
Comprehensive Plan, as outlined ~n the attached supplement dated
June 6, 1990 from Walter Keller in Exhibit "D".
Consistent with various policies contained within the Traffic
Circulation Element of the Comprehensive Plan, a copy of the
developer's traffic impact analysis was submitted to Palm Beach
Counuy for review and comment. Among other issues, the County
does not consider this application to have been complete prior to
February 1, 1990, the adoption date of the Municipal
Implementation Ordinance (see attached copy of correspondence
dated June 5, 1990, from the Office of the County Engineer in
Exhibit D).
e. Whether the proposed rezoning would be compatible
with the current and future use of adjacent and
nearby properties, or would affect the property
values of adjacent and nearby properties.
The proposed rezoning would be incompatible with and would likely
have a negative impact on property values~ in the Stonehaven PUD,
due to the additional traffic that would be generated through
this neighborhood. In addition, the proposed development would
likely have an adverse impact on those single-family residences
that are located immediately south of the Knuth Road office
building site and across Knuth Road from the southeast corner of
the proposed shopping center site. Typical characteristics of
shopping centers that would be incompatible with nearby
residential uses ~nclude noise from trucks, noise from loading
and unloading activities, noise due to unloading of dumps=ers and
removal of compactors, odors from dumpsters (which can be
~etec=ed up to 200 feet away), trash and litter accumulation and
he unpleasant aesthetics that are tlrpical for the rear of a
shopping center. Policy 1.17.1 of the Comprehensive Plan
provides the basis for the above comments. It ia not anticipated
Page 7 of ADDENDUM I
PLANNING DEPT. MEMORANDUM NO;. 90-161
Chairman & Members, Planning & Zoning Board
June 8, 1990
Page 8
that the proposed shopping cen=er would have an adverse impact on
the single-fancily residences in Quail Ridge, as the closest units
are separated from 'the shopping center site by a 300 foot wide
expanse of 'golf course, and a 6 foot high buffer wall and a 25
foot wide greenbelt are required at the rear of the shopping
center. ·
Whether the property is physically and
economically developable under the exist-
ing zoning.
Under the existing Agricultural Residential Zoning in Palm Beach
County, the property could be utilized for a varle=y of
agricultural or conservation purposes~ Single-family dwellings
are permitted on a minimum lot area of 5 acres.
If annexed and developed consistent with the policy for Area 7.j.
of the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Element Support
Documents, the property could be developed for a maximum of 77
dwelling units u~der t~e Moderate Density 'Residential Land Use
category, and a PUD zoning category and a maximum of 55,170
square feet of retail floor space under the Local Retail
Commercial Land Use category and the C-2 or C-3 Zoning category.
Based on the above, and lacking any documentation to the
con=rary, it is arguable fha= the property could be developed
economically under the existing zoning.
g. Whetherlthe proposed rezoning is of a scale
which i~ rea~6nably related to the' needs of
the neighborhood and the City as a whole,
Based on the discussion in item "a" concerning Area 7,j. and the
analysis of supp!~, demand and location of commercial land uses
in the Comprehehsive Plan Future Land Use Element Supporu
Documents, it is erquable that the proposed rezon~ng is not of a
scale which is reasonably related to the needs of the
neighborhood and the City as a whole. Furthermore, approval of
additional retail~ development in this area of the City may limit
and compete with ~ed~velopment in the Central Business District,
along U.S.1, and ~lonq Bo~on Beach Boulevard east of 1-95.
h. Whether there are adequate sites elsewhere
in the City for the proposed use, in districts
where such use is already allowed.
As outlined in th9 discussion of supply and demand for commercial
land in the Future Land Use Element Support Documents of the
Comprehensive Plan, "the Future Land Use Plan which is proposed
for the City and areas to be annexed by the City will accommodate
all of the anticipated demand for commercial land through
build-out". %~nis paragraph of the Plan further s~aues that "the
City should not change the land use =o commercial categories,
beyond that which is shown on the proposed Future Land Use Plan,
except for minor boundary adjustments, small infill parcels, or
commercial uses of a highly specialized nature, which have
special locational or site requirements~ and therefore cannot be
easily accommodated on already designated commercial are~"
This discussion is formalized in Policy 1.19.6 of -~h~
Comprehensive Plan. A further detailed analysis of the supply
and demand of commercial l~nd is contained within the Future Land
~n~lement Support Documents (Volume No. 1) of the Comprehensive
Page 8 of ADDENDUM I

Page 9
Conclusions/Recommendations: The Planning Deparument recommends
that the requesns for Future Land Use Element Amendment, Rezoning
and Comprehensive Plan Text Amendment submitted by Kieran J.
Kilday for Elsie A. Winchester, Trustee, be denied. This
recommendation is based on the following summary of findings
contained within the staff report:
The proposed shopping center will likely zncrease the volume
of commercial traffic on Stonehaven Drive, which links Knuth
Road to Congress Avenue and serves as a bypass for the
traffic signal at North Cohgress Avenue and West Boynuon
Beach Boulevard;
The proposed la~d use element amendment/rezoning would not be
consistent with thepolicy for Area 7.j. of the Comprehensive
Plan Future Land Use Element Suppor= Documen=s;
The Discussion of Supply and Demand for Commercial Land in
the Cmmp~ehensive Plan Future Land Use Element Support
Documents indicates 'that there maybe anywhere from 30 To 198
acresof excess' commercial land at build-out. Thus, the
supply is expected to m~tch the demand. This section of the
Plan and PQlicy 1.1926 also state that the Future Land Use
Plan for the City and areas to be annexed by the City will
accQmmodate all of the anticipated demand for commercial land
through ~uild-out and, therefore, the City should not further
change the lan~ use to commercial categories, except for
minor boundary adjustments;
The discussion for the Location of Commercial Land in the
Comprehensive P~an F~tute Land Use Element Support Documents
states that fur~-her strip commercial development should not
be allowed in t~is area of the City due to the aesthetic and
traffic sa~ety~robl~ms that are crea~ed and that traffic
levels on roads in the vicinity would likely fall below
established levels of service. This section of the Plan
further states that commercial developmen= beyond that which
is ~hown on the, proposed la~d use plan should :be permitted
only if the City, or the applicant for development applies
for a lower level of service, by seeking to have properties
in thevicinity approved as a regiohat activity center and an
Areawide Development Of Regional Impact.
5. The proposed rezoning would be contrary to the established
land use patter~ and would arguably constitute a grant of
special privile~ to an individual property owner as
contrasted wi~h~ protection of the public welfare;
There has been no significant change in conditions in the
vicinity of this propercy since the ~doption of the
Comprehensive P~an, that would make the proposed rezoning
desirable;
The applicant's analysis of impacted roadways ~s incomplete
and should be revised. It should also be noted that the
proposed rezoning will consume road capacity that will be
needed to allow~ for commercial developmen~ of other parcels
in this area of the City which are designated for commercial
land use on the Future Land Use Element of the Comprehensive
Plan.

June 8, 1990
Page 10
The proposed rezoning would not be compatible with the
current and future use of adjacent and nearby propertie~ due
to,the additional traffic that would be generated along
Stoneh&ven Drive and the proximity of the shopping center to
the homes in Banyan Creek, as provided for in Policy 1.17.1
of the Comprehensive Plan.
The property is physically developable under the City's
current Moderate Density Residential and Local Retail
Commercial land use designations for 77~dwelting units and
55,170 square feet of retail floor space respectively, and it
ia arguable that the property could be developed economically
under the existing zoning.
10.
It is arguable that the proposed rezoning is not of a scale
which is reasonably related to the needs of the neighborhood
and the city as a whole;
11. Approval of additional retail development in this area of the
City may limit and compete with prospects for redevelopment
in the Central Business District, U.S. 1, and Boynton Beach
Boulevard east of 1-95; and,
12. As outlined in the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Element
Support Documents, and f6rmalized in Policy 1.19.6 of the
Comprehensive Plan, there are adequate sites elsewhere in the
City for the proposed use, as well as in the City's Reserve
Annexation Area.
PROJECT APPROVAL
If it is the desire of the Planning and Zoning Board to recommend
approval or the City Commission to approve these requests, it zs
recommended that approval be contingen~ upon the following:
1. Approval of the Comprehensive Plan Text Amendment uo Area
7.j. as modified below:
7.j. Parcel at Southwest Corner of Boynuon Beach
Boulevard and Knuth Road
This is a 14 acre parcel which is currently approved
in the unincorporated County as a golf and tennis facility.
If developed as such, a Recreational land use and zoning
designation would be appropriate. It is likely, however,
that the property will be developed for more intensive uses.
regardless ~f how the property is developed, the owner
should be required to submit an application for annexation.
If the land use is changed to Local Retail Commercial, the
property should be developed as a Planned Commercial District
(PCD). In addition, the following restrictions should be placed
on the development of the property if rezoned for commercial land
use to mlnimzze adverse impacts on adjacent residential
communities:
Building heights should be limited to one story
(maximum 25 feet).
Pole-mounted lighting should be provided instead
of building-mounted lighting and lighting fixuures
should be properly shielded and directed so as =o
minimize glare on nearby residences.

Screening and noise mitigation should be provided
for all exterior mechanical equipment, and all
such equipment be roof-mounted.
d. The architectural treatment at the rear of the
shopping oenter is to match the front of the
shopping center.
Trees planted in the perimeter greenbelt are to be
placed 20 feet on centerwith canopies above the 6
foo~ hiqh Concrete block wall that is required
adjacent to residential zoning.

Dear Hr. ~olden:
A~ requested by your letter of April 3, 19gO, the Palm Beach County Trafftu
Division has reviewed the traffic reports for the tWO proposed shopping canters
entitled Boynton 8each Boul~wrd POD and Knuth Road PCD. Tho following comments
~re submitted for your consideration:
l)
Based Hpon copies of correspondence from your office to the applicant's
a~ent (Kilday & Associates, Inc.) dated ~ebruary 13, lggO, ~e do not
~on~l~er th~ ~E~catlons foE thesagrpJec~s to have been complete pr~6~

Implementation Ordinance (County Ordinance 90-~). To comply with these
County Ordinlnces, new traffic reports need to be submitted by the
applicant to your office as well as our office for review.
z)
If t~. o~pac~e~ on each of the shop~ing center site plan~ will be

B)
Under. Test #1 of the new Countywide Traffic Standard (which te comparable
to the previous unincorporated are~ standard . County Ordinance B7-18),
significant project tra??i~ would oocu~ on two link~ of Boynton Beach
Boulevard that are projected 'to exceed thel~ ex(sting an~ committed
capacities. No imp.ro~ments are recommended ?o~ either o~ those two links
(Military Trail ta E1 Claire Ranch Ro~d and Old BaYnten Road to Int~r~tate

APPLICANTS RESPONSE
A. Whether the proposed rezoning would be consistent with
applicable Comprehensive Plan policies. The Planning
Department shall also recommend limitations or requirements
which would have to be imposed on subsequent development of
the property, in order to comply With policies contained in
the Comprehensive Plan.
Simultaneous with the epplication for rezoning, the applicant
requested an amendment to the existing Land Usa designation
and text for Area 7.k. of the Future Land Use Element Support
Document. If these amendments are approved, the subsequent
rezoning will be censistent with the amended text.
Page 40 of the Plan specifically allows additional commercial
designations "for minor boundary adjustments, small infill
parcels, or commercial uses of a highly specialized nature,
which have special locational or site requirements, and
therefore cannot-be easily accommodated on already designated
commercial areas." The applicant contends that this site
meets these requirements. Much of the commercial inventory
referenced by staff is located in other areas of the City
where lack of demand and/or dimensions make the future
prospect ofdevelopment unlikely. Modern shopping facilities
include larger anchor stores than even several years ago.
Much of the available c~mmercial inventory is along U.S. 1
and is of insufficient depth to accommodate~ these uses.
Additionally, the new uses wish to locate in an area where
the population can support the uses. Again much of the vacant
commercial land is in the wron~ place. Lastly, the location
of the mail in this area has d~signated this ~eogr~phic
area as a prime commercial location attractin~ users ~o
where people are already golng.
The applicant feels that this property is alse an infill
situation. All of the land surrounding it is already
developed. The text for Area 7.k. specifically recommends
C-4 zoning and the existing post office as leqitimate
and desirable uses. These uses abut the site° The applicant
believes a properly designed Planned Commercial Development
allows for appropriate infill and transition Detween these
more intensive uses and the residential prope~y to the west.
Page 1 of ADDENDUM N
Boynton Beach Blvd. PCD
Applicant's Response
Page 2 of 4
Furtkermore Policy 1.19.6 of the Plan states t!iat commercial
designations can be allowed when "it can be deI~onstrated that
a particular property is unsuitable for other uses." The
parcel of property is located at tke intersectzon of
Winchester Boulevard and Boynton Beach Boulevard directly
adjacent to the post office and County zoned Industrial
properties. The current designation of high density
mu~tifamily fronting on Boynton Beach Bou!evar~ is not in the
best inferest of the city. Because of the intensity of the
apartments at buildout. This application eliminates 159 of
those units.
The Plan'also indicates that "the City should continue its
policy ef encouraging commercial uses to be located at
intersections, and discouraging strip commercial
deVelopm~nt~" This application, located at the intersection
of Winchester Boulevard and Boynton Beach Boulevard, meets
this criteria. The intersection is already signalized and
the applicant has offered to allow access to t~le intersection
from the adjacent post office.
B. Whether the proposed rezoning would be contrary to the
established land use pattern, or would create an isolated
district unrelated to adjacent or nearby distrkcts, or would
constitute a grant of special privilege to an ±ndividual
property owner as contrasted with the protection of the
public welfare.
As previously indicated, the property to the north, east, and
south of the petition is currently being utilized for
Commercial or I~stitutional purposes. The Planned Commercial
Development is designed to mitigate any impact with the
residential property to the west and southwest. Furthermore,
the design allows access to the post office at a signalized
intersection (Boynton Beach Boulevard and Winc~ester
Boulevard) providing a benefit to the Boynton citizens in
both the incorporated and unincorporated area.
C. Whether changed or changing conditions make the proposed
rezoning desirable.
The proposed use has probably been the best use for the
property for some time. Because the property was owned by
absentee owners (University o~ Florida Trust) uhe question of
its ultimate use has never previously been discussed in
detail. The current designation was assigned by staff with no
input from the property owner.
Page 2 of ADDENDUM N
Boynton Beach Blvd. PCD
Applicant's Response
Page 3 oi 4
D. Whether the proposed rezoning would be compatible with
utility systems, roadways, and other public f~cilities.
The proposed use constitutes a significant decrease in the
amount of water and sewer connections required under the High
Density designation. Mr. K.S. Rogers has addressed the issues
raised in Mr. Keller's letter. Because this algplication was
submitted to Boynton Beach prio~ to February l, 1990 it is
not Subject to the Municipal Implimentation Ordinance. (See
letter of Mr. Cannon.)
E. Whether the proposed rezoning would be co~apatible with
the current and future use of adjacent and nearby properties,
or woul~ affect the property values of adjacent or nearby
properties.
The proposed use is entirely consistent with the existing and
future land uses to the north, east, and south, as previously
stated. The applicant has designed the Planned Commercial
Development to minimize any impact on adjacent neighbors. To
that end, the applicanthas met with the adjacent neighbors
several times, and offered a separate agreement guaranteeing
certain buffering conditions between Stonehav~n PUD. and the
applicant.
F. Whether the property is physically and economically
developable under the existing zoning.
The applicant contends that the property is not developable
under existing zoning for the following reasons:
The location of the property at a major intersection
with surrounding intensive and industrial type uses
makes any residential use unfeasible.
The property has considerable muck deposits. Ail
building pads will have to be demucked at a
considerable expense. The total building coverage of
the Planned Commercial Development is much less and
more compact than a High Density residential
development. The applicant does not believe a
residential project can absorb the cost of this
process.
G. Whether the proposed rezoning is of a scale which is
reasonably related to the needs of the neighkorhood and the
City as a whole.

The applicant has submitted a market analysis indicating that
this project is supportable by existing and future
populations. The staff has accepted the findings of this
analysis. This use will have no effect on the Central
Business District as there are no properties ~.n that area of
similar configuration which would allow a development of-this
type.
H. Whether there are adequatesites elsewhere in the City
for the proposed use, in districts where such use is already
allowed.
The applicant has reviewed the City inventory of commercial
lands and has determined there'are no other sites of similar
size, s~ape, and location except for the companion petition,
Knuth Road, PCD. The value of this site is particularly
enhanced by its location at the intersection of Winchester
Boulevard and Boynton Beach Boulevard which is a major
accessway to Beynton Beach Mall.

APPLICANTS RESPONSE
A. Whether the proposed rezoning would bec6.nsistent with
applicable comprehensive Plan potici:es. The Planning
Department shall also recommend limitations cr requirements
which wOuld have to be imposed on subsequent development of
the property, in order to comply with policies contained in
the Comprehensive Plan.
Simultgdleous with the application for rezoniDg, the applicant
requested an amendment to the existing Land Use designation
and text for Area 7.j. of the Future Land Use Element Support
Document. If these amendments are approved, the subsequent
rezoning will be consistent with the amended text.
Page 40 of the plan specifically allows additional commercial
designations "for minor boundary adjustments, small infil!
parcels, or commercial uses of a highly specialized nature,
which h~ve ~special locati0nal or site requirements, and
therefore cannot be easily accommodated on already designated
commercial areas.'~ The applicant contends that this site
meets these requirements.
1. The property already has a Commercial Designation in Palm
Beach County. The County adopted Comprehensive Plan
designated the north 450 feet High Intensive Commercial and
the remainder as Commercial~ Recreation. There is an existing
approval allowing for the construction of a 9olf and tennis
center including driving range for this property. The City
pla~ also designates the North 250 feeu for Local Retail
Commercial. The issue is only one of whether the Local Retail
Commercial should be extended to include the entire site, a
"minor boundary adjustment."
2. Much of the commercial inventory referenced by staff is
located in other areas of the City where lack of demand
and/or dimensions make the future prospect of development
unlikely. Modern shopping facilities include larger anchor
stores than even several years ago. The existing
recommended depth of 250 feet cannot accommodate a modern
center and violates the City policy of "discouraging strip
commercial development." Much of the available commercial
inventory is along U.S. 1 and is of insufficienu depth to
accommodate these uses. Additionally, the new uses wish to
locate in an area Where the population can support the uses.
Page 1 of ADDENDUM 0
Knuth Road PCD
Applicant's Response
Page 2 of 4
Again.much of the vacant commercial land is in the wrong
place. Lastly, the location of the mall in this area has
designated this geographic area asa prime commercial
location attracting users to where people are already going.
3. The intersection of Knuth Road and Boyn~on Beach Boulevard
be routed to provide a major entrance to the ~oynton Beach
Mall to the North and the applicant has agreec to construct
Knuth Road to provide continuity to Woolbright ~oad to the
SOuth. Woolbright Road is sChedUled to be c0~suructed by the
County in fiscal year 1990-19~91.
3. The applicant feels uhat this property is also an infill
situation. All of the land surrounding it is already
developed. The textfor Area 7.j. specifically recommends
Local Retail Commercial for a portion of the site. As the
property is a single entity the applicant is requesting that
only this one land use be applied to the site. The applicant
believes a properly designe~ Planned Commercial Development
allows for appropriate infitl and transition between this
intersection and the Quail Ridge golf Course to the south and
west. Staff recognizes that the development should have no
adverse impact on Quail Ridge.
B. Whether the proposed rezoning would be conurary to the
established land use pattern,~or would creaue an isolated
district unrelated to adjacent or nearby districts, or would
constitute a grant of special privilege to an individual
property owner as contrasted with the protection of the
public welfare.
As previously indicated the property to the no~th ~nd east
the petition is currently being utilized for lommerciat
purposes. The existing Commercial depth of the property to
the east is significantly deeper that the 250' suggested by
staff. The applicant is not requesting that ~ new use be
applied to his site, only that the designated use of the
frontage be allowed sufficient depth to perm~u a modern
designed Planned Commercial Development. The Planned
Commercial Development is designed to mitigat~ any impact
with the residential property to the west, south and easu
through the use of landscape buffers and walls.
Furthermore, the applicant is required to signalize the
intersection thereby benefitting the residences who now must
negotiate this dangerous intersection without a light.

Knuth Road PCD
Applicant's Response
Page 3 of 4
C. Whether changed or changing conditions make the proposed
rezoning desirable.
The.proposed use has probably been the best use for the
property for some time. Because the property was already
designated Commercial in part the applican? a~sumed that t ~e
whole site could be utilized for Commercial purposes at. such
time that development was timely and proper. The application
for a Planned CommercialDe~elopment reflects the changing
times in shopping center developments where integrated plans
supercede old strip commercial development which would occur
if the site was built according to the existing plan.
The current designation was assigned by suaff with no input
from the property owner.
D. Whether the proposed rezoning would be ccmpatibte with
utility systems, roadways, and other public iacilities.
The proposed use constitutes a significant decrease in the
amount water and sewer connections required under the
Moderate and Local Retail designations..Mr. K.S. Rogers has
addressed the issues raised in.Mr. Keller's Letter. Because
this application was submitted to Boynton Beach prior to
February 1, 199.0 it is not subject to the Municipal
Implimentation Ordinance. ISee letter of Mr. Cannon.)
E. Whether the proposed rezQn~ng would be compatible with
the current and fuuure use of adjacent and nearby properties,
or would affect the property values of adjacent or nearby
properties.
The proposed use is entirely consistent with the existing and
future land uses to the north, and east. The applicant has
designed the Planned Commercial Development ~o minimize any
impact on adjacent neighbors. Staff has concluded that the
proposed use wo~ld have no negative effect on Quail Ridge due
to the existing buffers and separation of homes because of
the golf course design. The applicant has meu with the
adjacent neighbors in Stonehaven several timas, and offered a
separate agreement guaranteeing certain buffering conditions
between Stonehaven P.U.D. and the Applicant.
F. Whether the property is physically and economically
developable under the existing zoning.
The applicant conuends that the property is not developable
under existing zoning for the following reasons:
Page 3 of ADD~I~D~M 0
Knuth Road PCD
Applicant's Response
Page 4 of 4
1. The existing depth of the Local Retail Con~mercial
designation promotes strip commercial development which
not in the interest of good planning or marketable.
2. The small parcel of land remaining cannot be properly
developed into a residential community as it ~s uoo small for
developing a sense of community.
G. Whether the proposed rezoning is of a scale which is
reasonably related tothe needs of the neighborhood and the
City as a whole.
The applicant has submitted a market analysis indicating that
this ~roject is supportable by existing and future
populations. The staff has accepted the findings of this
analysis. This use will have not effect on the Central
Business District as there are no properties in that area of
similar configuration whichwoutd allow a development of this
type.
H. Whether there are adequate sites elsewhere in the City
for the proposed use, in districts where such use is already
allowed.
The applicant has reviewed the City inventory of commercial
lands and has determined there are no other~slt~s of ~lar
size, shape, and locatio~ except for the con,anion
Boynton Beach Boulevard PCD, The value of this site is
paruicularly enhanced by its location at the intersection of
Winchester Boulevard and Boynton Beach Boulevard which is a
ma]or accessway to Boynton Beach Mall.

Dear Mr. Ennis:
Please be advised that the City staff found the applications for
the Boynton Beach BoUlevard PCD and Knuth Road PCD tc be complete
as of the..submittai date of January 30, 1990. The City considers
anY application which is sufficiently complete to allow process-
ing through the staff and various city boards to be a complete
application. In the case of both of the above-mentioned
applications, the items listed in the letter to the applicant,
dated February 13, 1990, were minor in nature. The only
missing item which could b~ possibly considered substantial in
nature were the requirements for a subdivision master plan,
however, since these sites will each be developed as a single
shopping center, the lack of subdivision plans did not constitute
a major ommission. All of the improvements which would be
required for a subdivision were shown on the conceptual site
plans for the PCD's, or would be constructed as a part of the
shopping center site.
Since the City considers the two applications to have been
complete as of the submission date, the City will continue to
process these applications, subject tc the applicant demonstrating
that the roadway levels of service, as se% forth in the City's
Comprehensive Plan, would be maintained, as well as applicable
levels of service in the unincorporated area. The provisions
of the City's Plan and Code Ordinances which were in effect at

TARA OAKS PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT
LAND USE ELEMENT AMENDMENT\PJEZONING - FILE NO. 473
ENTRODUCTION:
Kieran Kilday, agent for Bill Winchester, contract purchaser, is
requesting To amend the Future Land Use Element of the
Comprehensive Plan for a 20.16 acre tract of land located between
the L.W.D.D, L-25 and L-26 canals, immediately west of the Lakes
of Tara Planned Unit Development (see Exhibit "A"- location map).
The current land use designation is "Low Density Residential",
allowing a maximum of 4.84 dwelling units per acre. The
application submitted by Kieran Kilday requests approval of a
"Medium Density Residential" land use designation, allowing a
maximum of 9.68 dwellings units per acre, and a change in zoning
from Planned Unit Developmen~ with a Land Use Intensity=4 (PUD
with LUI=4) to PlannedUnit Development with a Land Use
Intens±ty=5 (PUD with LUI=5).
Although the subjecu parcel is undeveloped with scattered oak and
scrub oak clusters existing on-site, a mas~er plan was approved
by Ciuy Commission on June 21, 1988, that currently would allow
78 single family, detached units to be built. The proposed use of
this property, if approved for a land use and zoning change,
would be to develop it as a Planned Unit Development consisting
of 192 multi-family units, a private recreation ar~a, and a
20,000 square foot church (see Exhibit "B" - proposed master
plan).
PROCEDURE:
These applications for amendmenu to the Future Land Use Element
of the Comprehensive Plan, and rezoning are being processed
consistent with Florida Statute and Boynton Beach codes,
ordinances and resolutions as follows:
1. F.S. 163.3161: Local Government Comprehensive Planning
and Land Development Regulation Act.
2. F.S. 166.041: Procedures for Adoption of Ordinances mnd
Resolutions.
3. Boynton Beach Ordinance ~79-24.
4. Boynton Beach Code of Ordinances, Appendix A, Section 9C:
Comprehensive Plan Amendments/Rezonings.
5. Boyn~on Beach Ordinance 89-38: 1989 Comprehensive Plan.
These regulations have been listed for informational purposes.
Paraphrasing, these regulations require newspaper advnr=isements,
public hearings before the Planning and Zoning Board and City
Commission, review by the Deparument of Community Affairs, and
Commissio~ adoption of ordinances ~o annex, amend the
Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Element and rezone. These
procedures take approximately 8 uo 9 months to complete.

SURROUNDING LAND USE AND ZONING (see Exhibit "A" - location map):
As previously discussed, the present zoning of the subject
parcel, allowing for the development of 78 single family,
detached homes, subject to platting is PUD with LUI=4 (see
Exhibit "C" for a copy of the approved master plan). The land
use and zoning surroundingthe subject parcel varies. Abutting
the subjec~ parcel to the north is an 85 foot wide right-of-way
for the Lake Worth Drainage District L-25 Canal. Further to the
north and northeast, across the ~he L.W.D.D. ~-25. Canal, are
single family detached homes in the Stonehaven Planned Unit
Development (Banyan Creek). These homes ar~ valued in ~be
$80,000 to $100,000 price range. Abutting the s%~bject parcel to
the east are three residential subdivisions, From north to south
they are: (1) The Villas of Banyan Creek within the Stonehaven
Planne~ Unit Development (2) Clibper Cove and (3) ~he Lakes of
Ta~a Pianned Unit Development. The V~l!as of B~nyan Creek and
Ctlpper Cove are rental apartment projects, while the Lakes of
Tara P%anned Unit Development consists of single family detached
zero lot line u~its valued in the $80,00'0 to $i00,000 price
range., Abutting the subject parcel to the south ia an 80 foot
wide right-of-way for the L.W.D.D. L-26 canal% Further to the
sguth, across the L.W.D.D. L-26 canal, is the future right-of-way
~or W6olbright Road. Abuttin~ Woolbright Road 'on the south side
is a narrow ~acant parcel which lies within the QuailLake West
PUD. The Quail Ridge Planned Unit Development, ~which lies within
Palm ~each CoUnty, is located to the southwest and west ~f the
s~bjec~parc~l. Quail P~dge is a large g0~f co~rse co,unity
aimilarto HUnters RU~ in Bo!alton Beach, wi~h'a mix of 'single and
multi-family units valued in ~he $150,000% price range.
FUTURE LAND USE:
The land use designation of the parcels north IStonehaven PUD -
Banyan Creek) and northeasu (Stonehaven PUD - Villas of Banyan
Creek a~d The Landings PUD - Clipper Cove) of the subject parcel
is "Moderate ~nsity Residential", allowing a maximum of 7.26
dwellings unius per acre. Theland use designation of the
parcels southeast (Lakes of Tara PUD) and south, across
Woolbright Road extended (Quail Lake PUD] is "Low Density
Residential~', allowing a maximum of 4.84 dwellings units per
acre. The parcel southwest and south [Quail Ridge) of the
subject parcel is in Palm Beach County and has a land use
designation of "Low Residential 3", allowing 1 ~o 3 dwellings
units per acre. Therefore, the land use category requested,
"MediumDen~ity Residential", allowing a maximum of 9.68
dWelling units per acre, is inconsistent with the land use of the
parcels in close proximity ~o the subject parcel.
PUD ZONING ~/qD MASTER PLAN Isee Exhibit "B" - proposed master
plan):
The applicant is proposing uo rezone from Planned Unit
Developmenu with Land Use Intensity=4 (PUD with LUI=4) to Planned
Unit Development with Land Use Intensity=5 (PUD with LUI=5). A

ACCESS AND INTERNAL TRAFFIC FLOW
TWO access points ~o the multi-family portion of the PUD are
proposed; both from Knuth Road. Entrance to the ohurch pod will
also be provided from Knuth Road via two driveways. No access ~o
the PUD is proposed from $.W. congress Boulevard. If these
applications ~or land use amendment and rezoning are approved,

RECREATION
Based on the number and type of units proposed, a total of 2.88
acres is required to be dedicated for parks and recreation
purposes. A 1.9 acre prlvaEe recreation area is proposed ~o
[-ecelve a 50% ~redit pursuanu to section 8~ Article IX, of
Appendix C. This private recreation area is divided between
locaulons a .4 acre area located within the residential pod and
~ 1.5 acre area located within pod 2, which is separated from the
~esidenulal pod by S.W Congress Boulevard The following five
~ecrea[ional amenities are proposed:
2. clubhouse

PaGe 4
With respect to the remaining 1.44 acres required foi parks and
recreation purposes, the Recreation DepartmenE recommends that a
fee be paid in lieu of land dedication (sea Exhibit "E" -
Recreation Department memorandum). Since the minimum size
required for a neighborhood park is 5 acres and due to the fact
that all of the property in the vicinity of the subject parcel is
developed or planned for developmeRu, there is no opportunity to
combine this ~emaining acreage with park dedic~ti6n-from adj~cen~
properties to meet the minimum size required for a neighborhood
park,
TOPOGRAPHY SOILS AND VEGETATION
The long, narrow, rectangular shape of the s~bject parcel is
slighty rolling with the higl~est point lground elevation 19.0
occurring towards the cenuer. The lowest polnt (ground elevation
15.0] occurs aE the southeas5 portion of the parcel; a net change
in elevation of 4.0 feet. The parcel contains predominantly two
uypes of soils, BasinGer fine sand and Okeelanta muck, Basinger
fine sand is ~ poorly drained, deep, sandy soil. Okeelanta muck
is similar to BasinGer fine sand in that it is poorly drained
soil. 0n-site vegetation consists primarily of exotics and
clus=ers of oaks and scrub oaks scattered throughout the south
half of the site. Based on available information there should
be no impediments to the development of the site owing ~o
environmental constraints. However, care should be taken to
preserve the oaks and scrub oaks as noted in the correspondence
in the Forester/Horticulturist's memorandum in Exhibit "E".
DRAINAGE
A schematic drainage and storm wauer retention plan has been
submitted, on-site ~etention will be diverted to a storm water
management tract (lake) located south of S.W. ConGress Boulevard
within pod 2, before flowing into the L.W.D.D. L-26 canal along
the-south property line of the site Water levels will be
controlled by an outfall control structure at the southeast
corner of the s~orm water management tract. Littoral zone
plantings are required to be installed around s minimum of 50% of
the Iakeshore area.
POTABLE WATER DISTRIBUTION
The site will be served with water by co~ecting to an existing
16 inch watei main located within the Knuth Road right-of-way,
north of the L.W.D.D. L-25 canal, and Eo an exlstlng 10 inch
waEer main withing the B.W. congress Boulevard right-of-way.
SEWAGE COLLECTION
The site will be served by conssruct~ng a lift station at the
southeast corner of the residential pod which will tie into an
existing Gravity sewer within the Lakes of Tara PUD.
TRAFFIC ANALYSIS
The traffic lmpacE analysis submitted by the developer was
reviewed Eo determine conslsEency with the Municipal
Implementation Ordinance of the Palm Beach County Traffic
Performance Standards Ordinance, as the application was submitted
subsequent ~o February 1, 1990, and the proposed rezoning
Generates ~n excess of 500 additional trips per day. A copy of
Walter Keller's report (the City's traffic consultantl can be
found ~n Exhibit "D" of this memorandum. Briefly, the results of
Mr. Keller's review indicate that the applicant meets City a~]d
Page a of ADDENDUM W
TO:
pLkNNING DEPT. MEMORANDUM NO- 90-177
Chairman & Members, Planning & Zoning Board

Page 5
county concurrency requirements, but additional information is
requi~ed to assess traffic impacts. The Palm Beach County Traffic
Engineering Department has not completed their review, but it is
anticipated that their comments will be received prior uo the
City Commission meeting. The required roadway improvements are
listed in the Planning Department memorandum in Exhibit "E".
iSSUES/DISCUSSION:
Section 9.c.7 of Appendix A - Zoning, of the Code of ordinances,
requires the evaluation of rezoning requests against criteria
related uo the impacts which would result from the approval of
such requests. These criteria and an evaluation of the impacts
which would resuit from the proposed development are as follows:
a. Whether the proposed rezoning would be consistent with
applicable Comprehensive Plan policies. The Planning
Depaztmen= shall also recommend limitations or requirements
which wouldhave to be imposed on subsequen~ development of
the praperty, in order uo comply with policies contained in
the Comprehensive Plan.
The proposed rezonlng is inconsistentwith Comprehensive Plan
Policy 1.4.5 which states, ,.Subsequent to Plan adoption, modify
the land development regulations to provide that residential
densities shall not be incremsed above those which were assumed
in projecting water demand in the Potable Water Sub-element,
unless it can be demonstrated that capacity will be obtained by
reducing the land use density or intensity elsewhere in the water
service area." The applicant has not provided documentation
which verifies that the increased water capacity to serve the
requested increase in density and intensity of 4.84 dwelling
units per acre ~o 9.68 dwelling units per acre (192 multi-family
units) would be offset elsewhere.
similarly, Policy 1.5,5 of the Comprehensive Plan states,
"subsequent to Plan adoption, modiiy the land development
regulations ~o provide that residential densities shall not be
increased above those which were assumed in projecting sewer
flows in the Sanitary Sewer Sub-element, unless it can be
demonstrated that capacity will be obtained by reducing the land
use density or intensity elsewhere in the sewer service area."
The applicant has not provided documentation to verify that the
increased deand for sewer capacity to serve the requested
increase in density and intensity would be offset elsewhere.
In addition to the above, the Planning Department memorandum in
Exhibit "E" recommends limitations and requirements which should
be imposed on subsequent development of the property, if this
request ~s approved, in order to comply with other policies
contained in the Comprehensive Plan.
b. Whether the proposed rezonlng would be contrary to the
esuablished land use pattern, or would create an isolated
district unrelated to adjacent and nearby districts, or would
constitute a grant of special privilege to an individual
property owner as contrasted with protection of the public
welfare.
As previously discussed on page 2, ,,Future Land Use", all of the
surrounding zoning districts are planned unit developmenus with
land use intensities equal ~o four or less. Densities of the
surrounding districts range from 3 dwellings units per acre to a
maximum of 7.26 dwelling units per acre and ~nits are a mixture
Df single family, detached homes and multi-family, rental units.
Therefore, approval of a ..Medi~nu Density Residential" land use
Page 5 of ADDENDUM W
PLANNING DEPT. MEMORANDUM NO. 90-177
TO:
Chairman & Members, Planning & Zoning Board
June 8~ 1990
Page 6
designation, allowing a maximu~ of 9.68 dwelling units pez acre,
and a zoning category of Planned Unit Development with a Land Use
Intensity=5, would constitute a grant of special privilege to the
properuy owner, would be contrary to the established land use
pattern and would create an isolated island of "Medium Density
Residential" land use surrounded by "Low" and "Moderate Density
Residential" lar~ use, Moderate Density Residential, at 7.26
dwellings per acre would be consistent, however, with the density
of projects which lie tc the east.
c. Wheuher changed or changing conditions make theproposed
rezoning desirable.
There has been no significant change in conditions in the
vicinity of this properuy, since the adoption of the
Comprehensive Plan, that would make the proposed rezonlng
desirable.
d. Whether the proposed rezoning would be compatible with
utility sysuems, roadways, and other public facilities.
Existing City wauer and sewer systems in the vicinity of the Tara
Oaks properuy are adequate to serve the proposed project.
However, as previously discussed in item "a", the applicant has
nou demonstrated thatthe increased water and sewer demand can be
offset elsewhere. Concernmng roadways, the proposed rezoning
must meet the requiren~nts of the Municipal Implementation
Ordinance of the Palm Beach County Traffic Performance Standards
Ordinance before development can proceed, as t_he rezoning
generates in excess of 500 new trips per day.
With respect to recreational facilities, the private recreation
area to be provided plus the recreation fee to be paid in the
amounu equivalent to the value of 1.44 acres for the construction
of public recreational facilities, will adequately meet the
recreation needs of the proposed project.
Whether the proposed rezoning would be compatible with the
current and future use of adjacent and nearby properties, or
would affect the properuy values of adjacent and nearby
properties.
As outlined under item "b", the density requested (9.68 dwelling
units per acre), would not be consIstent with the densities which
exist on surrounding properties ranging from 3 Eo 7.26 dwelling
unius per acre. However, it is nou anticipated that the proposed
rezoning would affect the properuy values of adjacent and nearby
properties, as the proposed multi-family units are to be limited
~o two stories and are to be located north of the extension of
S.W. Congress Boulevard, adjacen~ uo existing multi-family units
in Clipper Cove and the Stonehaven PUD (a.k.a. Banyan Creek).
Also, the church and passive recreauional amenities proposed
(picnic area, fishing dock and jogging trail) are located
adj ~cent ~o the single ~amily, zero lot tine units in the Lakes
of Tara PUD separated by a 15 foot buffer.
f. Whether the property is physically and economically
developable under the exisbing zoning.
Under the existing PUD with LUI=4 zoning, the proper~y could be
developed for-78 single family, detached, zero lot line units.
Based on the justification suauemenK submitted, it cannot be
ascertained whether the properuy is economically developable
under the existing zoning, since no economic analysis was
included with the application.
g. Whether the proposed rezoning is of a scale which is
reasonably related to the needs of the neighborhood and the
City as a whole.
Page 6 of ADDENDUM W
PLANNING DEPT. MEMORANDUM NO. 90-177
TO:
Chairman & Members, Planning & Zoning Board
June 8, 1990
Page 7
Based on the discussion under item "a", concerning Policy 1.4.5
and 1.5,5 of the Comprehensive Plan, the applicant's failure to
demonstrate that wauer and sewer capacity will be obtained by
reducing the land use intensity and density elsewhere in the
water and sewer service area and the discussion in item "b"
concerning the inconsistency of the proposed "Medium Density
Residential" land use withexistia%g "Low" and "Moderate Density
Residential" land uses in the vicinity, it is arguable that the
proposed rezoning ~n not of a scale which is reasonably related
to the needs of the neigb~borhood and the City as a whole.
Whether there are adequate siteselsewhere in the City for
the proposed use, in districts where such use is already
allowed.
The analysis of supply and demand for rental apartments in the
Future Land Use Element Support Documents (Volume 1), indicates
that there may be a surplus of up to 539 rental aparmment units
zn the City at build-out (pp. 29-30). Based on the above, it
is arguable that there are adequate sites elsewhere in the City
for multi-family housing in districts where such use is already
all~wed, however the additional number of rental apartments
proposed by the applicant would not create a~ excessive
oversupply of land for rental apartments.
CONCLUSIONS/RECOMMENDATIONS:
It is the Planning Deparument's recommendation that the requests
for Future Land Use Element amendment and rezonin9 submitted by
Kieran Kilday for Bill Winchester, contract purchaser, be denied
but ~hat a land use density of 7.26 du/acre {"Moderate Density
Residential") be approved, This recon~mendation is based on the
following findings contained withinthe preceding analysis:
The proposed land use amendment and rezonzng is contrary To
the established land use pa~uern and would create an isolated
island of "Medium Density Residential" land use surrounded by
"Low" and "Moderate Density Residential" land use, thereby
constituting a grant of special privilege to the property
owner. Moderate Density Residential (7.26 du/aore) would be
warranted, howe~er, sinc~ this is the density of the
apartmenu projects which lie to the east.
The applicant has not provided documentation which verifies
that the zncreased water and sewer demand to serve the
requested increase in density and intensity would be offseu
elsewhere. Therefore, the proposed requesus are
inconszsuent with Comprehensive Plan Policies 1.4.5 and
1.5.5~ An amendment to Moderate Density Residential
would creaue ~dditional wauer and sewer impacts equivalent
40 dwellings, which would not be excessive.
PROJECT APPROVAL
As previously stated, the curren~ land use designation of the Tara
Oaks properuy, "Low Density Residential", allows only a maximum of
4.84 dwelling units per acre, as compared with two of the
abutuing parcels having a '~Moderate Density Residential" land use
designatzon, allowing a maximum o~ 7.26 dwelling units per acre.
Unless the applicant can provide documentation which demonstrates
that wauer and sewer capacity can be obtained by reducing the
land use density and intensity elsewhere in the water and sewer
service area, consistent with Policy 1.4.5 and 1.5.5 of the
Comprehensive Plan, it is the Planning Department's
recommendation that a "Moderate Density Residential" land use
designation would be appropriate. This recommendation is based
on the compatibility of this land use with the established land
use pattern and the following aspects of the proposed master
plan:

Ail residential uses and the more active recreational
amenities (swimming pool and clubhouse) are clustered
within pod lon the master plan adjacent to existing
multi-family uses to the east (Clipper Cove and Villas
of Banyan Creek)
There is a distance of 350 feet between the existing
single family homes in Quail Ridge to the-west and the
proposed multi-familyunits.
Approval of a "Moderate Density Residential" land use designation
would allow a maximum of 7.26 dwelling units per acre or 146
units, a decrease of 46 units from the 192 units proposed by the
applicant.

Based on 192 multifamily dwelling units, the recreation
dedication requirement ms calculated to be 192 D.U.
multiplied by .0150 acres = 2.88 acres.
The developer has indicated that he wishes to apply for one
half credit towards the dedication requirement. In order to
qualify for this credit, the developer must show five
separate recreation elements as indicated in the
sub-division ordinance. 2.88 acres divided by 2- = 1.44
acres. Due to the small size of the requirement, we
recommend a fee be paid in lieu of land.
Prior to final plat, specifications must be shown
demonstrating institutional quality recreation equipment is
being installed.
The private recreation area is shown mn the far southern

APPLICANTS RESPONSE
A. Whether the proposed rezoning would be ccnsistent with
applicable Comprehensive Plan policies. The Planning
Department shall also recommend limitations er requirements
which would have to be imposed on subsequent development of
the property, in order to comply with policies contained in
the Comprehensive Plan.
The applicant contends that the proposed change in Land Use
Designation is consistent with the policies cf the Plan. The
attached water and sewer consumption calculalions indicate
that the net result of the proposed changes anticipated by
Tara Oaks PUD, Knuth Road PCD, and Boynton Beach Boulevard
PCD will result in a total decrease in the amount of water
and sewer required. Additionally, whereas the existing Plan
allows for a total of 314 units to be built, the combined
proposal results in a reduction of 122 units~ This reduction
is consistent with the plans assumption that there will be a
surplus of 539 units at buildout.
B. Whether the proposed rezoning would be c(~ntrary to the
established land use pattern, or would create an isolated
district unrelated to adjacent or nearby districts, or would
constitute a grant of special privilege to az~ individual
property owner as contrasted with the protection of the
public welfare.
The proposed masterplan undertakes to provide compatibility
between the new project and adjacent land uses. All units
have been located north of Congress Avenue. ~'he type and
style and placement of the units is similar 7-o the project
immediately to the eastr Clipper Cove. The ~]oper~y to the
south of Congress Avenue adjacent to Lakes o~ Tara is
designated for open space and a church, both passive land
uses.
Co Whether changed or changing conditions make the proposed
rezonmng desirable.
There is an existing zoning approval for thi~ property which
has never been built. The prime reasons for ~]ot building are
the shape of the property (very narrow due to right-of-way
for Knuth Road) and the cost of the construcuion of Knuth
Road which is prohibitive but a responsibility of whomever

develops this property The proposed density has been
ascertained utilizing the cost of this construction and
working backward to determine a reasonable impact on a per
unit basis.
D. Whether the proposed rezoning would be compatible with
utility systems, roadw~ys, and other public facilities.
As indicated by staff, this project meets all requirements of
all traffic performanc.~ standards, County and City. Water and
sewez consumption has been discussed previously.
E. Whether the proposed rezoning would be compatible with
the current and future use of adjacent and nearby properties,
or would affect the pr3perty values of adjacent or nearby
properties.
As indicated by staff, the design of
similar units abutting similar units
results in no negative effect on any
the master plan with
on adjacent property
surrounding areas.
F. Whether the proper~y is physically and economically
developable under the ~xisting zoning.
As previously discussel the current land use designation and
zoning approval is not economically developable due to the
cost of the constructiDn o~ Knuth Road.
G. Whether the proposed rezoning is of a scale which is
reasonably related to the needs of the neighborhood and the
City as a whole.
The scale of the project is identical to the project on
adjacent land to the east.
H. Whether there are adequate sites elsewhere in the City
for the proposed use, in districts where such use is already
allowed.
The proposed use allows for the consolidation of residential
dwellings away from Boynton Beach Boulevard. The two
companmon petitions currently allow for significant
residential development in areas which are not desirable.
The proposed plan allows for a reasonable use of this
property without any adverse impacts on surrounding
residences.

SUBJECT: Request for a Comprehensive Plan Text Amendment
submitted by Kilday & Associates for Bill R. Winchester
Sun, nary: Kilday and Associates, agent for Bill R. Winchester,
one of several affected property owners, are requesting an
amendment to the text for Area 7.f of the Comprehensive Plan
Future Land Use Element Support Documents, as outlined in the
attached legal advertisement in Exhibit "A". The nature of the
change r~quested is to allow parcels less than three (3) acres
size to be r~zoned to C-3 (community Commercial) instead of PCD
(Planned Con~nercial Development) if they meet the intent of
planned zoning district setbacks and greenbelt standards. The
application was submitted ih connection with three recent
applications for annexation, land use element amendment to "Local
Retail Commercial" and rezoning to C-3 within the boundaries of
Area 7.f. The three applications are Mall Corner, Inc., Retail
Oil-Lube and Service Station ISee attached map in Exhibit "B"}.
The Mall Corner, Inc, application was approved for transmittal to
the Florida Department of Community Affairs (DCA) in May, while
the Retail/Oil-Lube and Service Station applications have been
continued until the July 10, 1990 meeting, pending the outcome of
neootiations between the applicant and a contract purchaser who
intends 5o submit an application for a Development of Regional
Impact.
Issues/Discussion: There may be specific situations, such as
Mall Corner, Inc. and Retail. Oil-Lube where, owing to small
parcel size and where there is different ownership or control
from surrounding properties, it may be warranted to rezone 5o C-3
instead of PCD, if certain limitations are placed on the
development of the property. However, the text amendment
proposed by the applicant would allow larger properties to be
divided into parcels less than 3 acres s~ze and there would not
be a limit 5o the number of smaller parcels that could be created
and developed by differenr property owners, such as the proposed
Service Station application.
Recommendation: In ordez to address the concerns outlined under
"Issues/Discussion" above and to allow properties under 3 acres
size to be rezoned to C-3 where warranted, it is recommended that
Area 7.f be modified to read as follows:
7.f. Incorporated and Unincorporated Parcels Bounded by
Congress Avenue, Old Boynton Road~ Knuth Road, and L.W.D.D.
L-24 Canal
This area contains a number of parcels in an unincorporated
enciave~ all of which should be annexed. These parcels have
unique characteristics, since there are relatively few owners,
the area ms bounded by collector and arterial roads, and the area
is adjacent to a regional mall and two community shopping
centers~ Consequently, the City should encourage intensive
commercial development in this area. Particular requirements of
the City should be that these parcels be annexed prior to
development, the parcels be developed as planned zoning
districts, that the City approve any Developments of Regional
Impact (including areawide DRIs) for these parcels, and that
development not exceed the capacity of public facilities which
serve these parcels~
Page 1 of ADDENDUM CC
PLANNING DEPT. MEMORANDUM NO. 90-163
TO: Chairman & Members,

Page 2
Planning & Zoning Board
3JG:cp
It should also be recognized, however, that several parcels
exist which are smaller in size than the minimum acreage
required for rezoning to a planned zoning district. These
parcels are under separate ownership and control from
surrounding parcels and they could not be developed as
planned zoning districts unless they were included in a
Development of Regional Impact (DRI). Therefore, it is
recommended that any such parcels of less than 3 acres which
existed at the time of the adoption cf the Comprehensive
Plan be allowed to be rezoned as standard zoning districts,
consistent with the land use designation shown on the Future
Land Use Map. The commercial zoned parcels should also be
required to meet the PCD zoning district greenbelt standards
where there is frontage along a public right-cf-way.
In order to minimize land use conflicts with the residential
land uses which lie to the west, those parcels which abut
the east side of Knuth Road should be placed in the Office
Commercial land use category. The City should require that
commercial development of these properties include the
provision of adequate buffers to protect the residential
land uses which ~ie to the west.
High Density Residential or mixed-use residential and
commercial development should be considered to be an
alternative land use, if roadway capacity proves to be a
problem. Residential densities up to 10.8 dwelling units
per acre would be permitted in this case.
The rights-of-way for Congress Avenue, Knuth Road, Old
Boynton Road, abutting this area should also be annexed, as
well as any platted Palm Beach Farms roads within the area.
GOLDEN
NOTE:
Pursuant to Section 163.3174(4)(d), Florida Statutes,
the Planning and Zoning Board, as the Local Planning
Agency, is required no make a recommendation to the
City Commission with respect to these proposed
amendments with the Comprehensive Plan.

with respect to the above-referenced request for site plan and
use approval.
Submit a copy of the cross access agreemenn prior to "final
sign-off" for review by the City's legal department to
provide for the cross parking areas, access aisles and
driveways shown on the site plan. The alternative would be
to submit a unity of title for the two parcels. Chapter 19,
Article II, Section 19-17(K).
Phase II will require a future site plan modification.
Chapner 19, Article II, Section 19-17.
Parking for manufacturing uses within a Planned Industrial
District is based upon the maxzmum number of employees on
shift plus ample parking for visitors. The calculations on
the site plan and page 4 of the application need no be
amended to reflect maximum number of employees rather than
square footage. The provision of 126 parking spaces as
shown on the site plan would enable a maximum number of 168
employees at this facility. Appendix A, Section 7.B.2.
No signs are shown on the plans submitted. Site plan
aRproval will be required for all signs to include location,
elevations, and details such as size, materials, colors,
advertising and letter style, consistent with the previously
approved Quantum Park sign program. Section 21-14(M)2.
The sidewalk on the west side of Park Ridge Boulevard, shown
only on the landscape plan, should be added to the site plan
and paving and drainage plan consistent with Appendix C,
Article IX, Section II.
The applicant is seeking to amend the list of permitted uses
at the Quantum Park of Commerce P.I.D. as referenced in
their letter of request. Electronics research and
development and manufacturing is proposed on lots 41C and
42A, designated for "Industrial" use on the Quantu~ Park
master plan. This ~ype of use would be able to locate
elsewhere in the City in the M-1 (Light Industrial) zoning
district under Appendix A-Zoning, Section 8.A.l,a.(15),
electronics manufacturing and b.(12), research and
development laboratories; without environmental review.
Therefore, it is the Planning Department's reco~endation
that it would be appropriate to permit this use on those
parcels designated "Industrial" on the mas~er plan for
Quantum Park. Since the contract purchase~ has'not be~.n
disclosed, environmental review may be required prior to
receiving an occupational license if, consistent with
Appendix A, Section 7.E.2., it is determined that hazardous
materials are either used, handled, stored, generated or
displayed in connection with the proposed use as defined by
40 Code of Federal Regulations, Part 261. Appendix A,

The plans submitted for review do not reflect a 25 foot

site Plan Modification (renovation)
- File No. 506
Please be advised of the following Planning Department con~nents
with respect to the above-referenced request:
Provide a scale on the elevation sheet. Chapter 19, Article
II, Section 19~t7[i).
Provide elevations or details for the ribbon accent on the
lift station and dumps~er. Chapter 19, Article II, Section
19-17(1).

Site plan revlew la required for all freestanding signs such
as the Gl, Gl0, Gl1, Gl6 and Gl9 signs proposed, however the
Building Department must be contacted with respect to
compliance of these signs and the directory signs with the
Sign Code. Approval of the location of these signs is
contingent upon city Commission approval of a sign variance.
Chapter 21, Section 21-9 and Section 21-14(E)(3) and (8).
After researching plans on file in the Building Department
to compare the existing parking lot layout to what is
proposed, it appears that there is a net increase of 19
parking spaces. Since a survey or "as-built" site plan was
not submitted, the change in the number of parking spaces
should be verified. Appendix A, Section ll.A.1.
Label the sign details on pages 1 and 2 using the symbols
from the key on sheet A-1.
The elevations on sheet 3 are to be labeled.
The restaurant parking calculations on page 4 of the site
plan application should be revised ~o reflect Appendix
A-Zoning, Section ll.H.10,11 and 16.d.(2),(18) and (20).
At the June 5, 1990 Technical Review Board meeting, the
Technical Review Board unanimously reco~ended against the
modifications ~o the median within the north mall access
road. The change requested would result in conflicting turn
movements, via a "shared" turn lane. Westbound vehicles
making a left into the rear of the Boyn~on Beach Promenade
would oppose eastbound vehicles making a left into the First
American Plaza and T.G.I. Friday's parcels,
If the City Commission approves the median modification,
documentation shall be provided which verifies that the
owners of the Boynton Beach Mall will authorize this
construction within their access road. Section 19-21(a).

The Technical Review Board also unanimously recommended
against the requested changes to the parking spaces and
adjacent access aisle near the northern, main entrance to
the shoppin~ center. The existing design is preferred over
the proposed change because i~ does not permit vehicles to
back out into the access aisle/fire lane along the front of
the shopping center, vehicles pulling out of this parking
area have limited visibility of vehicles turning into the
shopping center. Section t9-21[a).
