Presentation by Home Builders and Contractors Association of Palm Beach County: Offering of Graduate Developer and Builder Certification Course - Requested by Mrs. DeLong Mrs. DeLong took this course, and she had asked Randy Nielsen, Governmental Affairs Director from the Home Builders and Contractors Association of Palm Beach County to speak to the Members about a pilot course. Mr. Nielsen thought it was an opportunity for them to work with the City to enhance the process of well managed growth in Boynton Beach. One program they offer is their graduate developer and builders institute. The institute provides those involved in the home building industry with the opportunity for professional growth and development. Mr. Nielsen said the course Includes an overview of the process, zoning, land use, land acquisition, market research, product development, budgeting and profit margins, land development, construction techniques, architectural planning, and sales agents' responsibilities. Mr. Nielsen felt they could put the program on in four sessions of about two hours each. He thought it might give the Board Members a better understanding of what is involved on the part of Builders and what some of the obstacles members of their Association are faced with when they attempt to build and develop parcels. Mr. Nielsen also thought it may give them insight they can pass on to their members so they can better work with Boards like this. Mr. Nielsen contemplated starting the project in May and thought it could be used with the National Home Builders. In the last 18 months, the City and his Association have been able to work out a lot of misunderstandings that were in the community before. Mr. Nielsen elaborated. Mr. Richter liked the idea. He questioned whether depart- ment heads within the City would be included to give their - 3 MINUTES - PLANNING & ZONING BOARD BOTfl~TON BEACH, FLORIDA APRIL 11, 1990 viewpoints and also explain the concerns they have when a project is brought to the City. Mr. Richter thought they should be guest speakers because they deal with this every day. Discussion ensued as to when the program would start. Mr. Nielsen informed Chairman Rosenstock that the Associa- tion has a number of members who teach various segments of the course, based on their specialties. Mr. Howard thought the City Commission Should be included. Mrs. DeLong felt the Board of Adjustment should also be included. She also included concurrency and traffic performance standards in the course. Mr. Nielsen told why he thought the Members should get involved in this. Mr. Richte~ commented about the Palm Beach County Planning Council, projects that should be coordinated, roads, and new terminology coming out that people should be aware of. Mrs. DeLong checked with City Manager Miller, and he said the facilities at City Hall would be available for the course. Chairman Rosenstock thought what was proposed was excellent. He suggested they set specific dates and start putting it together. Mrs. Greenhouse thanked Mrs. DeLong and the Association for their efforts. It was her under- standing the course was not without charge, but it was being offered to the Board Members without a charge. OLD BUSINESS A.

NEW SITE PLANS Project Name: Agent: Owner: Location: Legal Description: Description: Hampshire Gardens Thomas Avalle, President Hampshire Gardens, Inc. East side of South Federal Highway~ south of S. E. 23rd Avenue See "Legal Description" above Request for site plan approval to con- struct a 644 square foot clubhouse addition Jim Golden, Senior Planner, congratulated the new Board Members and the new Chairman and Vice Chairman. He showed on an overlay that the addition would be located on the left side of the building. The City's parking lot regulations require that if a parking lot is enlarged, the entire parking lot must be modified where necessary to meet the current requirements. Since the project was built in the early 1960s and the Parking Lot ordinance was not adopted until the early 1980s, substantial improvements will be required, including tearing out the parking lot to install drainage. Other things would include landscaping, lighting, etc. - 5 - MINUTES - PLAN~ING & ZONING BOARD BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA APRIL 11, 1990 If the variance would be approved, Mr. Golden said the applicant would not be required to reconstruct the existing parking lot or any portion thereof. The recommendation of t~e Technical Review Board (TRB) was that the request for variance be approved as submitted. This was based on the minor nature of the change requested, which was to relocate restroomsf provide handicapped access and additional office and storage space° It was the consensus of the TRB that there are no existing safety problems with respect to the existing layout and design. However, it was difficult for the TRB to arrive at this conclusion because the plans sub- mitted did not show the existing layout. Chairman Rosenstock asked if it was a habit of the TRB to approve plans without an existing plan. He understood the clubhouse was quite old. Chairman Rosenstock was concerned that the TRB might approve something without anything on the record verifying exactly what will happen and what is in place at the present time. Mrs. Greenhouse saw the parking lot and had no problems with it. Her concern was giving the applicant relief from the "Scope" of the entire Parking Lot Ordinance. She did not notice whether there were any stop signs. In reviewing the Parking Lot Code, one item contained in it was required maintenance. If the Board grants relief from the "Scope", Mrs. Greenhouse asked whether that would mean they would never have to comply with the maintenance again. She under- stood this community did not have an existing set of plans and could not afford to draw up a new set of plans. Mrs. Greenhouse wondered if the Planning Department could work with the applicant and help them identify the specific areas of relief they need rather than giving them relief from the "Scope". Discussion ensued. Mrs. Greenhouse asked if it could be a problem to enforce that Section of the Code if the Board would give the applicant a variance. Attorney Cherof answered "Yes." Mrs. Greeenhouse wondered if they should identify specifically what the applicant wants relief from. Mr. Golden said the Board could have the application go back to the City Staff and have the City Staff recommend the Sections the applicant should comply with and have them come back to the Board. There was discussion as to whether the applicant should come back to the Board. Attorney Cherof advised there are guidelines the Board should follow, as set forth in that Section of the Code. - 6 - MINUTES PLANNING & ZONING BOARD BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA APRIL 11, 1990 The variance to be granted was mandated to be the minimum variance that would accomplish the purpose the applicant was seeking. They were right in saying if they grant a variance from the "Scope" Section of the Code, they would be giving a variance which is much broader. Thomas Avalle, President, Hampshire Gardens, Inc., 2500 South Federal Highway, Boynton Beach, FL 33435, told the Members the applicant was looking for relief from the requirements of the Parking Code. Hampshire Gardens is 25 years old, and they have no problems with their parking spaces. They have 275 spaces available and 236 apartments. Three buildings are outside of the 500 foot radius the "Scope" calls for. The three buildings have 36 apartments. The "Scope" also requires that they have two spaces for the pool area and two spaces for the shuffleboard area. Thirteen spaces are required by "Scope". Mr. Avalle said they have 37 unalloeated spaces, 15 spaces within 200 yards of the clubhouse, and 17 more spaces w~thin 200 feet. There is a total of 27 spaces within ~00 feet of the clubhouse. The request does not involve additional people or cars. People walk to the clubhouse. Mrs. Greenhouse asked Mr. Avalle if it would present a hardship if the Board h~ard this again next month. Mr. Richter thought it would be ridiculous to have them come back. The City Staff had already recommended approval. All the applicant was looking for was relief for their clubhouse. The applicant was not adding any parking spaces and was not takin~ any away. As long as the applicant complies with the City'~ s Ordinances, Mr. Richter thought the Board should give them he variance.' Once you give somebody ~elief from the entire scope of the Ordinance, Chairman Rosenstock said they have relief to do anything they want i~ the future. He stated he would be happy to vote in favor of the applicant as long as it would not give the applicant complete relief from the Ordinance in perpetuity. Attorney Cherof advised that the Board should have the Planning Department identify what the applicant should have done to comply with the Code provision. The Members should determine specifically what the applicant is seeking relief ~rom and then they could exempt some things from the list. Mr. Avalle said they were specifically looking to use their present unallocated parking spaces to bring them up to - 7 - MINUTES - PLANNING & ZONING BOARD BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA APRIL 11, 1990 scope. Some of their plans are so old, they would have to survey the whole property to come up with the plans. If they have to go through the procedure of surveying the property and bring all of the plans up to Code, it would be an added expense for the small addition they have. They have already spent considerable money. If this gets too difficult, Mr. Avalle said they will not be able to proceed with the expansion. Mr. Avalle added their time is short. Most of their people will be leaving for the north soon, and the people involved in the variance will not be here. To determine what the issues are, Mr. Golden said someone would have to evaluate the whole parking lot. He stated he could give an approximate list of things, but he would not feel confident that he was covering everything. Mr. Golden mentioned some of the requirements. Mr. Cannon apprised everyone that the applicant would have to submit a survey, and he thought the applicant wanted to avoid that. He elaborated on what should be done. The Parking Lot Regulations allow the P&Z Board to grant a variance from any Section of the Parking Lot Regulations. Mr. Cannon thought the application was taking advantage of that at the fullest. The Section they were asking a variance from was the "Scope" Section. Mrs. Greenhouse questioned whether they could give the applicant relief from the "Scope" with the exception of maintenance. Attorney Cherof replied they would be estab- lishing a procedure that may be a precedent, so the next person that comes in for a varzance will ask the Board not to apply the requirements of the City's specific Code but to create this new procedure for granting a variance. He again drew the attention of the Members to the criteria for granting a varzance, and he stressed it is a four step procedure they must evaluate. It includes granting the minimum variances necessary to keep it in harmony. The justification is to implement the Code Section, not to abrogate it. The Board might be trying to take a short cut but, procedurally, Attorney Cherof thought it was zmproper. In the past, when the Board granted a variance, Mr. Howard stated they were to agree to the comments of the TRB, and that took care of everything. That was what the Board had done for the last couple of years. Discussion ensued about the proper wording for a motion and the requirements. - 8 - MINUTES - PLANNING & ZONING BOkRD BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA APRIL 11, 1990 Mr. Cannon informed Mrs. Greenhouse that the applicant would have to meet the handicapped requirements because it is a State law. Mr. Golden apprised the Members that generally, the burden for showing what they can comply with is placed on the applicant. Usually applicants will attempt to comply as much as possible, and they will only ask a variance for what they cannot obtain. That was not the situation in this case. Vincent Finizio, Acting Assistant to the City Engineer, stated if the plans were unclear as to what the specific design requirements were, the Board was obligated to deny the application until more specific information could be provided. Mr. Richter asked whether there was any way the applicant could be given relief. Mr. Finizio answered that a variance should never be applied to the "Scope", only specific requirements cited as Sections. The City Staff was undecided and divided as to the intent of this variance. Traffic and maintenance were the only things Mrs. Greenhouse was concerned about, and she inquired whether the Board could give the applicant relief from everything but that. Mr. Cannon replied that the Board could do that. A question arose as to how this could be done. Mr. Avalle informed the Members the project's streets are private streets, and they have traffic control signs. Discussion ensued about Police and Fire inspections and the parking lot. Mr. Avalle stated they have no problems with drainage, and they are installing street lights for the protection Of their people. There was further ~iscussion about the requirements. At the TRB meeting, Mr. Golden said there was a lot of discussion and confusion over the "Scope" issue. The Members felt the nature of the addition was very minor. Not one person voted against it. Mrs. Greenhouse questioned why the applicant would need a sur~ey to get relief from the "Scope". Mr. Golden answered that the only way the appli- cant can tell whether it will comply is to do a survey of how the parking lot was originally built and compare it with the Ordinance. Even if the Board recommended that the applicant could go ahead with the comments of the TRB, Mr. Howard did not think there was enough information for the applicant to get a building permit. Mr. Golden answered the recommendation from the TRB for the site plan was for approval, subject to staff comments. Mr. Cannon advised the applicant just needs a building permit for the building expansion, not the parking lot. MINUTES - PLANNING & ZONING BOARD BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA APRIL 11, 1990 Mr. Finizio thought he could probably help the applicant. He Offered to go to the property and said he could have an evaluation within 24 hoUrs. Mrs. Greenhouse moved to TABLE the matter. The motion died for lack of a second. Mr. Richter moved to approve the request for a variance to Sec. 5-138 with the exception of Mr. Finizio's inspection and evaluation and further staff comments for the compliance to stay within the "Scope" of Article X-Parking Lots Code. Vice Chairman Lehnertz seconded the motion. Mr. Howard asked whether it would be subject to the Board's inspection for approval. Mr. Richter answered affirmatively. Attorney Cherof did not think it was a proper motion. Mrs. Greenhouse thought they should table the request until the next meeting, and she explained. Vice Chairman Lehnertz disagreed. As time is money, he did not feel the Board should make the applicant wait another month for something this small. Mr. Richter withdrew his motion, and Vice Chairman Lehnertz withdrew his second. Motion re Variance Request Mrs. Greenhouse moved to CONTINUE the public hearing regard- ing Hampshire Gardens' request for a variance until the next regularly scheduled P&Z Board meeting, with the understand- ing the City Engineering Staff will assist the applicant in making a determination as to what design requirements they are seeking relief from. Mr. Howard seconded the motion. The Recording Secretary repeated the motion. A roll call vote was taken on ~he motion, and the motion carried 4-2. Mr. Richter and Vice Chairman Lehnertz voted against the motion. Motion re Site Plan Vice Chairman Lehnertz moved to CONTINUE Hampshire Gardens' request for site plan approval until the next regularly scheduled meeting of the Board. Mrs. Greenhouse seconded the motion, and the motion carried 6-0. 10 - MINUTES - PLANNING & ZONING BOARD BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA /~PRIL 11, 1990 B. SUBDIVISIONS MA~TER PLAN MODIFICATION Project Name: Agent: Owner: Location: Legal Description: Description: Citrus Glen Delfin F. Menendez Citrus Glen Limited Partnership Lawrence Road at Miner Road extended, southeast corner A parcel of land in Sec. 18, Twp. 45 North, Range 43 East, Palm Beach County, Florida Request for approval of an amended master plan to allow for an increase in lot size along Citrus Avenue and a reduction in front and rear setbacks in other areas of the Citrus Trail plat Mr. Golden made the presentation and said there were actually two requests in one, as outlined in the Planning Department's Memo No. 90-056 attached to the original copy o~ these minutes in the Office o~ the City Clerk as Addendum A. The recommendation from the TRB was that the request to reduce the front and rear setbacks in other areas of the Citrus Trail plat was a substantial change and the request to increase the lot sizes along Citrus Avenue did not constitute a substantial change. The recommendation from the Commission was that nezther request was substantial. If the P&Z Board chose to approve the request, it was recom- mended by the TRB that it be approved subject to the staff comments attached to the original co~y of these minutes in the Office of the City Clerk as Addenda A through C, and to the following comment: Building Department Identify on plans minimum buildable area front setback dimension. Chairman Rosenstock was concerned that if someone parked his car in the driveway, the car would extend into the side- walk. Mr. Golden confirmed that the rear of a larger car would be obstructing the sidewalk. In response to a question from Mrs. Greenhouse, Mr. Golden explained the standards established for Planned Unit Developments (PUDS). Mrs. Greenhouse noted one of the concerns o~ the TRB was that a reduction such as this would constitute a Precedent° If this is approved, Mr. Golden thought developers would come in to ask for lesser setbacks. - 11 - MINUTES - PLA~N-NING & ZONING BOARD BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA APRIL i1, 1990 Mrs. DeLong noticed several driveways in the development were more shallow. Mr. Golden replied they should have a minimum of 20 feet. Another issue concerned the type of model constructed on the lot. Mrs. DeLong also noticed some of the driveways were closer to the street. Felix Granados, Jr., Developer, criticized the way projects are presented. He stated it is confusing and not accurate. He emphasized that they are not building larger homes. The square footage is smaller in some of the buildings he is now building. The houses are sort of flat across the front. There is not a lot of motion in them. Mr. Granados expounded on how he is trying to improve the i~ooks of the model houses from the street. He assured Chairman Rosenstock that a Cadillac will fit in 18 feet and added that the TRB recom- mended 18 feet so cars would not stick out beyond the side- walk. Mr. Granados agreed with Mrs. DeLong's observation that some of the houses are only 20 feet from the street. When he bought the community, he could have built every house 20 feet from uhe street without any sidewalks. Sidewalks are now on every single interior street because he put them there° It was not a requirement of the City of Boynton Beach. Mr. Granados expounded on how he has improved the property and said he cu= back from 230 homes, which were originally approved, down to 195 and increased the cl~ubhouse. Mr. Granados asked that the sidewalk be dropped altogether, as it was not required, in which case he would still have 30 or so feet to the house. ~ne TRB proposed that he save the sidewalk and make it 18 feet. The TRB was in favor of that solution, and the City Commission voted unanimously in favor of it. Mr. Cannon informed Mrs. Greenhouse that the applicant had to have a pedestrian circulation system but in a PUD, the requirement for a sidewalk on both sides of every street can be relaxed. The applicant has a pedestrian circulation system, but they are not putting sidewalks on both sides of every street. The streets are private. After other comments about the plan, Vice Chairman Lehnertz thought they would be providing a precedent for any developer who comes into the City. ~e asked what will happen when later down the road, the home owners want covered screen porches. To do that, the setbacks would have to be reduced even more. Vice Chairman Lehnertz thought this was the place to stop it. 12 - MINUTES PLANNING & ZONING BOARD BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA APRIL 11, 1990 Mr. Granados argued that the right-of-ways are 34 feet as they stand today. He is 10 feet in excess of what is required today. Mr. Granados alluded to Citrus Park and further argued. Delfin Fo Menendez, Senior Architect, MSM Design Group, 630 South Dixie Highway, West Palm Beach, FL 33401-5835, told the Members the project was originally approved as 24 feet for right-of-ways. Be confirmed that Mr. Granados increased the right-of-ways to 34 feet and added the side- walks. When they discussed this with the TRB, Mr. Menendez said they found out the City's Parking Regulations allow a stall of 18 feet long and 10 feet wide. A limousine or truck wonld be the only vehicle that could not park in the driveway. Most cars today do not exceed 16 feet. Mr. Menendez wanted to keep the sidewalks. Discussion ensued, and prior statements were repeated. Mr. Richter interjected that the P&Z Board previously approved this project. He thought t~is developer had improved it, and he could not see wh~ the Board was nit- picking the plan and trying to penalize Mr. Granados. Mr. Richter elaborated. Vice Chairman Lehnertz noted they had a combined 35 foot setback between the front and the rear. The request was for a combined 30 foot setback betwee~ the front and the rear. He understood the developer di~ not want to build larger houses. The developer just wants to stagger them. Vice Chairman Lehnertz asked if there was a way for the Board to specify that the combination setback will remain 35 feet, but they can have their front and rear limits within that. Mr. Cannon answered tha~t the Board could attach that condition, and it would be reasonable. The concern Vice Chairman Lehnertz had was that even though they were told the houses will not be larger, it would still give them the possibility of building larger houses, which would give a crowded type of situation. Mr. Granados was willing to tie the variance to one specific model. Mr. Richter moved to approve the request for approval of an amended master plan to allow for an increase in lot size along Citrus Avenue and a reduction in front and rear set- backs in other areas of the Citrus Trail plat known as Citrus Glen, subject to staff comments, with the exception of those comments in conflict with the approval. - 13 MINUTES - PLANNING & ZONING BOARD BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA APRIL i1, 1990 Discussion ensued about the motion and the square footage in the front. *Should be Mrs. *Mrs. Greenhouse seconded the motion and repeated that her DeLcng seconded concern remained the same. She said the met result of the motion. Mrs approving this motion would mean they would reduce the mini- Greenhouse mum setbacks for zero lot lines. The next time someone repeated etc. comes in wanting the same consideration, the Board will have See. 5/8/90 to grant it, or they will be sued. Minutes The Recording Secretary repeated the motion. Mr. Granados had no problem with the staff comments. A roll call vote was taken on the motion. The vote was 2-4. Mr. Richter and Mrs. DeLong were the only ones who voted in favor of the motion. The motion failed. Mr. Golden confirmed Vice Chairman Lehnertz' understanding that the Planning Department recommended approval of the suggested 60 foot right-of-way and recommended a replat for those lots with frontage on the 34 foot right-of-way. He added that there were no problems with the request for the lots on Citrus Avenue. Five feet will be added to the lots through the previous abandonment of Citrus Avenue. Motion Vice Chairman Lehnertz moved to approve the amended master plan to allow for an increase in lot size along Citrus Avenue, subject to staff comments. He clarified that he wanted to recommend approval of only those lots along the 60 foot right-of-way. Pursuant to Mr. Golden's suggestion, Vice Chairman Lehnertz added that his motion was subject to staff comments, except those comments which would conflict with the motion. The motion was repeated by the Recording Secretary. Mr. Richter asked if reductions in the front and rear set- backs in other areas of the Citrus Trail plat were being eliminated. Vice Chairman Lehnertz answered that was right. The developer would have to do what was recommended by the TRB. Mr. Golden advised the Members they would be accepting the recommendation of the TRB and not the City Commission's recommendation. The Members agreed that was correct. Mr. Richter seconded the motion, and the motion carried 6-0. 2.

The developer requested several exemptions and credits from the City as outlined in the Planning Depart- ment's Memo No. 90-082, dated April 3, 1990, addressed to to the Board, and also in the letter from Mr. Felner, dated April 2, 1990.

Discussion ensued between Mr. Felner and Chairman Rosenstock. Mrs. Greenhouse noted the applicants, at their own expense, took about 20% of their entire parcel and devoted it into improvements they were not required to do. Those improvements were far in excess of $85,000, so they really were not taking away a park and not giving the City the money. Chairman Rosenstock agreed the amenities were commendable, but they would also increase the value of their property. He was worried that the de~eloper was denying the City $85,000, which the City could use. Chairman Rosenstock was not asking that the City get the money. He h~d asked, and he asked again, that the developer reduce the rents ~or the next five years in pro- portion %o the money they will save. Mr. Felner replied it would preclude them ~rom providing afforda~ble housing with- in the City of Boy,ton Beach with these types of amenities and living accommodatiions. Chairman Rosenstock ~sked the developer to provide a finanoial statement when the d~velopment is rented. Felner answered that Chairman Rosenstock could get that through the State. Mr. Richter read the comments from the Recreation Department, which said the 2.54 acres provided for private recreation should serve the development ade- quately as a neighborhood park. Mr. Felner emphasized that the applicant had a~lread~ bee~ financially burdened far and beyond anything they ever ~nticipated to remove the wooded area and replace it ~n accordance with the directions of the Department of Re~reat!ion~and Parks' directions. ~o do any- thing beyond that wou~ld be ~mpossible. Mr. Howard referredl to the last paragraph in Mr. Cannon's Memo Noo 90-082 (Addendum E), which said the developer's request was reasonable. He read, "However, if it is the decision of the C~tF Commission to approve this request, the Planning Department will need to amend the Recreation and Open Space and Capital Improvements Elements of the Comprehensive Plan %o remove the five acre public park which is proposed to be l~cated on this property." Mr. Howard questioned whether this would be changed throughout the whole City or just in this project. Since this was shown as a park site in theI Comprehensive ~lan scheduled for acquisi- tion after 1995, M~r. Cannon said ~f the applicant is going to develop it, it will not be available for the City to acquire. Therefore, the City will have to adjust its level of service for that neighborhood after 1995 as far as public neighborhood parks are concerned. - 17 MINUTES - PLANNING & ZONING BOARD BOYNTON BEACh{, FLORIDA APRIL 11, 1990 ,Mrs. Greenhouse called attention to the City's need for public housing.

Because of the low cost of this, Mr. Richter asked why it was presented to the Board. Mr. Golden answered that Chapter 19 of the Code of Ordinances states that commercial building projects under $100,000 can be approved by the TRB. Since this was residential, all of the residential have been placed on the full agenda. Lawrence Somach, Executive Vice President, Hampshire at Hunters Run, 3 Hampshire Lane, Boynton Beach, FL 33436, stated they are the only PUD without a medial divider in the entrance way. They have an immediate left roadway when you come inv and there have been near collisions. Mr. Somach explained.

Mrs. Greenhouse noted the Building Department recommended the driveways be a minimum of 20 feet. She did not notice that comment on a previous application. Mrs. Greenhouse questioned whether they were requesting a greater length requirement here. Mr. Jaeger advised it was simply a recommendation. At the TRB meeting, Mr. Golden said there was discussion that certain units in some areas may be getting close to private roads.. With the garage additions, they may be having bigger cars that would extend into the road. Mr. Howard moved to approve the request, seconded by Vice Chairman Lehnertz.

Mr. Richter thought they should make a motion to find The Hamlet consistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan. This item had just been approved by the Board. Mr. Cannon stated it was the Planning Department's opinion that the project, as proposed, would comply with the Comprehensive Plan. The Board did not have to make those determinations for individual projects. They only have to make that deter- mination with respect to land development regulations. Mr. Cannon confirmed Vice Chairman Lehnertz's statement that the Planning Department will present the Board with recommen- dations for amending the Comprehensive Plan in terms of parks and recreation. Although they probably would not have to do it un%il close to 1995, he added they will do that now. As an applicant was waiting for the Downtown Review Board begin its meeting, THE BOARD RECESSED AT 9:50 P. M. The meeting resumed at 10:27 P. M. to A. Consistency Review - Marine Canvas Sales and Fabrication (pursuant to Chapter 163.3194 F.S.) Mr. Cannon drew attention to requests from Don Jaeger, Building Official, addressed to both the City Manager and to Mr. Cannon proposing a zoning change. He also referred the Members to a letter dated February 13, 1990 from William W. Branch, Manager, Branch Management, P. O. Box 263, Jupiter, FL 33468-09263 recounting a phone conversation he had with the Building Official. Mr. Cannon determined that Mr. Branch wants to establish the cutting of canvas covers and other canvas fabrications on a custom basis for private pleasure craft in C-3 zoning. Mr. Cannon said this would require that the uses be amended. To do this, the Board must review it for consistency with the Comprehensive Plan. Mr. Cannon said the Comprehensive Plan allows similar uses. Marinas are allowed in this land use category and in the zoning district. It was his opinion any use typically found an a marina could also be located in the C-3 zoning district and still be consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. Discussion ensued between Mrs. Greenhouse and Mr. Cannon. Mr. Cannon advised the Board would be making a recommen- dation to the Commission that they made a finding of con- sistency. The Board can make a separate recommendation as to the desirability of the use in this particular zoning district. Mrs. Greenhouse referred to them being in busi- ness and was informed by Mr. Jaeger that they have been cited by Code Enforcement. She noted sail making is - 22 MINUTES - PLANNING & ZONING BOARD BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA APRIL 11, 1990 allowed in the C-4 zoning district. Mrs. Greenhouse was concerned because this is C-3 zoning, and it borders on a residential mrea~ She questioned what kind of sewing machines they would use and what type of noise the business could create. It was a great concern when they start to allow previously industrial uses to go into a C-3 zone. Mr. Richter felt it should be in the category of manufactur- zng awnings and that type of canvas work, which normally is C-4. He commented that people with campers and boats could be lining up and felt it could be allowed in a marina or maintenance type area. Mr. Richter did not feel it should be adjacent to a residential area. Chairman Rosenstook stressed this was manufacturing, and he explained. Vice Chairman Lehnertz moved that the Board find the pro- posed Ordinance amendment to allow marine canvas sales and fabrication is inconsistent with the Comprehensive Plan. Mrs. Greenhouse seconded the motion, and the motion carried 6-0. B. Timetable for Delivery of Agendas (Requested by Murray Howard) Mr. Howard complained that most of the time he gets the agendas on Fridays. He has the weekends, and then Tuesday is the Board meeting. Mr. Howard felt he needed more time to examine the sites and make a determination as to what his vote will be. Discussion ensued. Mr. Cannon suggested that the Board wait until the Concurrency Ordinance is adopted because with the require- ments under that Ordinance for concurrency determinations with the requirements to comply with the Palm Beach County Traffic Performance Standard Ordinance, he thought there would be drastic changes to %he whole timetable ~of project review. In the Palm Beach County Traffic Performance Standard Ordinance, the City has to allow the County Traffic Engineer 30 days to revzew traffic impact statements. The timetable for a new project that generates more than 500 trips per day is already set'back 30 days. Mr. Cannon said the Board would get a copy of the Concurrency Ordinance this month, and there will be a City Commission and Planning and Zoning Board Workshop the beginnIng of May. It was the consensus of the :Board to TABLE this matter. 23 - MINUTES - PLANNING & ZONING BOARD BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA APRIL 11, 1990 C.

Scott Miller, City Manager Timothy P. Cannon, Interim Planning Director ' ~ Tambri J, Heyden, Assistant City Planner March 12, 1990 Citrus Glen P.U.D. Citrus Trail plat) Master Plan Modification (setbacks and lot size) File No. 432 Delfin Menendez, agent for Citrus Glen Limited Partnership, has requested a modification to the previously approved master plan for the Citrus Glen P.U.D., as outlined in the attached correspondence in Exhibit "A". Exhibit "B" outlines a revised request that supersedes Exhibit "A". The modification requested is desired to allow more marketable, larger, zero lot line homes to be built on 70 of the 103 lots within the Citrus Trail plat (those lots shaded on the master plan in ~xhibit "C"). Larger homes cannot be accommodated on the 55 foot by 102.5 foot platted lots which have approved setbacks of 20 feet in the front, 15 feet in the rear and 15 feet on the non-zero lot line side. The 70 lots' where larger homes are desired have frontage on either a 60 foot right~of-way (Citrus Amenue) or a 34 foot right-of-way (Citrus Trail, Orange Drive or Temple Avenue). Eight of the 70 lots have frontage on a 60 foot right-of-way (Citrus Avenue) and 62 of the 70 lots hav~ frontage on a 34 foot right-of-way. The' applicant is requesting approval of the following changes ~or the two "frontage types": (Illustrations of the applicant's request are provided in Exhibit "D".} 1) For the 62 lots with frontage on a 34 foot right-of-way (Citrus Trail, Orange Drive, Temple Avenue)- Reduce the rear setback ~rom 15 feet to 12 feet and reduce the front setback from 20 feet to 18 feet. The previously approved sidewalks within the right-of-way would remain and would run along the front property li~e of these lots. (See diagram 1.b. in Exhibit "D".) 2) For the 8 lots with frontage on Citrus Avenue (a 60 foot right-of-way)- Replat Citrus Avenue reducing it from a 60 foot right-of-way to a 50 foot right-of-way. The 10 feet gained would be added to the lots on each side of the right-of-way To in- crease their depth by 5 feet. The previously approved side- walk and bike path would remain, but move 5 feet within the reduced right-of-way. (See diagram 1.c. in Exhibit "D".) The procedure for approving master plan modifications in planned unit developments is twofold. First, the City Commission must make a determination as to whether or no~ 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 ma==er, would require a new application for PUD. On the other hand, a determination of no substantial change allows the forwarding of the request ~o the Plan~ing and Zoning Board. This procedure appears in Appendix B, Section 12 of the Code of Ordinances. Page 1 of ADDS~DUM A TO: J. Sco5~ Miller Planning Dept. Memorandum No. 90-056,. Page 2 Mar. [2, 1990 C With respect to the change requested by Mr. Menendez, the Technical Review Board (TRB) met on March 6, 1990, to revzew the plans and documents submitted and they are recommending that the City Commission make a finding of substantial change for the request to modify the front and rear setbacks for those lots with frontage on a 34 foot right-of-way and that the applicant be required to submit a new application for PUD. However, with ~veSpect to the request to reduce the right-Of-way width of Citrus enue in order to increase the lot depth of those lots which front on Citrus Avenue, the Technical Review Board recommends that the City Commission make a finding of Do substantial change. It was the consensus of the Technical Review Board that the request to modify front and rear setbacks substantially alters the nature of the original master plan approval and creates the following problems: 1. The setbacks approved at the time of master plan approval of this project, 20 feet in the front. 15 feet in the rear and 15 feet on the non-zero lot line side is the m~nimum standard for building setbacks lexcludes screened enclosures, porches and pools) for zero lot line homes for PUDs in the City. A reduction in building setbacks for this PUD would be a deviation from City standards and would set a precedent for future PUD mas~er plans. 2. The Zoning Code requires 2 parking spaces for every single family unit. Garages have been credited toward providing t of the parking spaces; driveways provide the other parking space as long as they mee~ the minimum dimension requirements for parking spaces, 9 feet by 18 feet. with a front setback of only 18 feet, a vehicle parked in a driveway more than likely would overhang into the sidewalk that runs ~long the front propert~ line unless the vehicle pulls up as close as possible to the building. This is usually not practical since room is desired to move around the vehicle. Sidewalks on one side of the local streets, the side of the street as the affected lots, were previously approved, and provide the only pedestrian the local streets. Therefore, system ~or lots on elimihating the sidewalk is not a solution to the potential overhang problem since they are required pursuant mo the Subdivision Regulations (unless other adequate pedestrian paths are provided). 3. Reducing the rear building setback to 12 feet would result in a 24 foot building s~paration between units that back up to one another zn the rear. Distance between buildings is always a concern to city ~ire- fighters since small building separations encourage spread of fire and prohibit access by certain fire apparatuses, thereby reducing response time and increasing property damage. 4. For those lots which back up to the collector road. the main road through the PUD, approval of the reduced rear building setback would allow units ~o be constructed 12 feet from the collector road right-of-way. 5. Several units are under construction having the previously approved building setbacks. Although tastefully staggered, building Eetbacks add interest to the layout and design of a pro3ect, haphazard stagger- · ng does not. A change in the front building setback Page 2 of ADDENDUM B J. Sco~ Miller Planning Dept. Memoranduf~ No. 90-056, Page 2 Mar. 12, 1990 au this point could potentially lend disorder no the layout of units yet ~o be constructed. 6. There is a 12 foot drainage and utility easement not shown on the master plan that exists within the fron~ 12 fee~ of the affected lots. As discussed in detail in the Utility Depar~men~ memorandum in Exhibit "D", a reduced front setback may result in having to relocate water meners and could make servicing utility lines with large equipment within this 12 foot easement precarious. 7. There are additional staff commen~s in Exhibit "E", which relate to the substantial nature of this request. If the City Commission forwards and the Planning and Zoning Board approves this request, in whole ox in parT, approval should be subj ec~ to the attached staff commen~s from the Building Depar~men= in Exhibit "E".

The justification for modifying this Master Plan is a .self-imposed issue, therefore, a) Alternates 1 & 2 of the 34' roadway areas are not acceptable. Alternate ~1 does not satisfy off-street parking requirements for parking area dimensions and vehicles overhanging sidewalks pose a nuisance and a hazard to pedestrians. Alternate ~2 for the 34' roadway areas, deletes sidewalks that are required by subdivision and Platting Regulations. A larger structure is not suitable justification for c~itting required sidewalks. Drainage swales would ke reduced by 50% in Alternate ~1. b) Alternate ~1 for the 60' R.O.W. 's is not acceptable dueto non-compliance with off-street parking requirements/dimensions. Alternate ~2 for the 60' R.O.W. is suitable and can he achieved through re-platting. · VAF/ck cc: Jim Golden, Senior City Planner Vincent A. Finizio (~ MEMORANDUM Utilities #90-156 TO: FROM: DATE: SUBJECT: Timothy Cannon Interim Planning Director John A. Guidry ~ Director of Utilities March 7, 1990 TRB Review - Citrus Glen Master Plan Modification In our opinion, the request to reduce front and/or rear setbacks from previously established minimums constitutes a substantial change in the Master Plan, and should require a public hearing so as to encourage public input on this matter. However, should the City Commission approve this change, we request that front setbacks be reduced to not less than 18' and rear setbacks to not less than 12', so as to prevent impacting existing fire hydrants, water services and sewer services. With an 18' front setback, the building would be within 6' of a utility easement. In the event future repairs are necessary on the water ~nd sewer utilities in the easement it is conceivable that backhoes and other heavy equipment would have to operate within 6' of someone's front door. We respectfully request that the Commission consider this fact when making their decision. dmt bc: Peter Mazzella ADDENDUM C PLANNING DEPT.

Cannon Interim Planning Director March 12, 1990 citrus Glen - MPM (setbacks and lot size) File No. 432 In addition to those issues raised by the Technical Review Board and outlined in the staff report (Planning .Departmegt Memorandum No. 90-056), please be advised of the followlhg Planning Department staff comments with respect to the above-referenced request for a master plan modification: 1. Approval of an 18 foot front building setback and 12 foot rear building setback would be a deviation from the minimum standard for building setbacks within PUDs (20 foot front, 15 foot rear and 15 foot on zero lot line side) that has been the standard for PUD develop- ment in the City. 2. The following aesthetic concerns are raised for consideration when evaluating this request: a. The construction of such a large unit on the lots in this project will result in an almost 45% lot coverage, the maximum which has generally been allowed in PUDs. This will undoubtedly cause the project to appear congested and overbuilt. b. Market will control which unit size is constructed on these lots. Therefore, if a reduced front setback is approved, after units having the reviouslv approved 20 foot setback are under P ~ ~ staggered construction, no orderly arrangement of setbacks will result. 3. The Citrus Glen and Lawrence Grove PUDs have been a model for more recent PUD master plan approvals in City. It is felt that the requested modification.of the Citrus Glen master plan will erode the integrity of the ~roject. TIMOT~%~ p. ~ANNON pLANNING DEPARTMENT MEMO NO. 90-082 TO: FROM: DATE: SUBJECT: Chairman and Members Planning and zoning Board and Honorable Mayor and City Commissioners Timothy P, Cannon Interim planning Director April 3, 1990 The Hamlet of Boyn~on Beach As outlined in the attached correspondence from Jay Felner, dated April 2, 1990, the developer is requesting that the City Com~ssion consider reducing the 25% Ba~ive habitat preservation requirement to allow for the preservation of small scattered pockets of micro-preserve. Although policy 4.3.5 of the Comprehensive Plan is referenced, this policy concerns "A" rated sites. The site is ~ctually show~ as a "B" rated site in the Conservation Element of the city's Comprehensive Plan, Therefore, the correc~ policy pertaining co "B" rated sites is 4.4.1 which states that "micro-preserves may be required oriented to preservation of a minimum 25% of all native plant communities which occur on site". Policy 1.11.14 of the Future Land Use Element of the City's Comprehensive Plan also concerns preservation of 25% of native habitats. In addition, it should be noted that, because the site has been significantly disturbed, it is not subject to the County or City's environmentally sensitive lands .ordinances. The basis for this request is Policy 6.1.1 of the Housing Element, which is quoted on the second page of this memorandum. Concerning parks and recreation, the Recreation and Open Space Element support Documents of the City's Comprehensive Plan require that a five acre public park site be provided in the northeast corner of the site. Instead of dedicating the five acre public park site, the developer is propos!ng to construct an intensified private recreation facility in the cenner of the site which consists of seven items: 1. Recreation building 2. swimming pool 3. Tot lot (children's playground) 4. Picnic Area 5. Basketball courts (2) 6. Tennis court 7. Multi-purpose play field Policy 1.8.2 requires that a parks and recreation dedication fee be collected for pro]ec~s which are not sub3ec~ to the dedication requirement contained in the Subdivision Regulations {rental projects generally do no~ have ko be platted). Policy 5.5.5 of the Comprehensive Plan requires the paymen~ of a parks and recreation dedication fee in lieu of 4and dedication. The formula for payment of the impact fee is contained in Article IX, Section~8 of Appendix C-Subdivisions and Platting. If five private recreation items are provided which mee~ the criteria within the ordinance, a 50% credit can be granted toward the payment of the impac~ fee to th~ City. The developer has met Page 1 of ADD~NDUME these criteria. Therefore, based on a dedication requiremen~ of 1.8 ~cres and a contracted land value of $1,125,000, the payment to the City would be calculated as follows: $1,125,000 divided by 23.6 acres equals $47,669,49/acre which multiplied by 1.8 acres equals a payment of $85 S05.08 to the City. The developer is requesting that the City commission waive the $85,805.08 parks and recreation fee. The basis for the developer requesting the above exemptions and waiver is policy 6.1.1 of the Comprehensive Plan Housing Element which concerns provision of affordable housing: Subsequent to plan adoption, establish procedures to provide information, technical assistance, and explore possibTe incentives to the private sector to maintaina housing production capaciby sufficient to meet the Required production. These possible incentives could include assistance in land assembly, below-market rate financing, allowances to build on nonconforming lots, and density increases. With respect =o the above, the developer's request is reasonable. However, if it is the decision of the City Commission =o approve this request, the Planning Department will need to amend the Recreation and Open Space and Capital In~provements Elements of the Comprehensive Plan to remove the five acre public park which is proposed to be located on this property.

The recreation impact fee will be determined based on 3.6 acres divided by 2 = 1.8 acres. As the development site is fully developed and 1.8 acres for public parks dedication are not available, it is not recommended that an acreage dedication be required. The developer is requesting a waiver of the fees required for one-half credit. This is a policy issue which should be addressed by the City Commission. The development has provided privaue recreation facilities which exceed the requirements for one-half credit. The acreage provided for private recreation is 2.54 acres and should serve the' development adequately as a neighborhood park. The developer shall provide specifications on the recreation elements indicated to ensure commercial quality equipment is provided. This should be provided prior to final signoff of the projecu.
