The presence in the audience of Commissioner Lee Wische was noted. AGENDA APPROVAL Under "8. Other C.", Mr. Cannon wished to add discussion on Consistency Review for Residences in Commercial Zoning Districts." Mr. Richter moved to approve the Agenda as amended. Mr. Blanchette seconded the motion which carried 7-0. MINUTES Mr. Richter noted a correction should be made to material in the October 10, 1989 Minutes on page 13, in the sixth paragraph which currently read: "Discussion took place and all Board members agreed applications denied by either the CRA or Planning and Zoning Board should be able to appeal to the Commission." Mr. Richter clarified that this has to do with the TRB's review of changes of minor significance, in which case, the appeal should come to the Planning & Zoning Board or the CRA. Chairman Walshak agreed and noted that appeals that are outside of the CBD would come to the Planning & Zoning Board. Appeals inside the CBD would go to the CRA. If either of those boards were to deny the appeal, there could be further appeal to the City Commission. In connection with material on page 8, under the heading "Request for Comme~nts on Community Improvement Proposed Standard Housing Guidelines," Johnnetta Broomfield had advised Chairman Walshak that the opening sentence should be MINUTES - PLANNING & ZONING BOARD BOYbITON BEACH, FLORIDA NOVEMBER 14, 1989 corrected to read: "Ms. Broomfield addressed the Board and stated the Guidelines were submitted to the Board for review and for information." Later, in the same paragraph~ reference to the "Clean Up/Fix Up" Program should be corrected to "Paint Up/Fix Up" Program. Near the end of page 8, Ms. Broomfield had noted the sen- tence should be corrected to read, "These Guidelines are not to take the place of any responsibilities of the other departments or boards." Mr. Blanchette moved to approve the Minutes as corrected. Mr. Collins seconded the motion Which carried 7-0. COMMUNICATIONS AND ANNOUNCEMENTS Mr. Cannon reported the Comprehensive Plan was adopted on November 7, 1989 by the City Commission. The adopted Plan will be sent to the Dept. of Community Affairs (DCA). The DCA will have 45 days to review the Plan and determine if it complies with Florida Law. The Board will be provided with a copy of the adopted Plan prior to the next regular meeting. OLD BUSINESS None. NEW BUSINESS A.

Copp's Addition to Boynton, as recorded in Plat Book 7, Page 56, of the Public Records of Palm Beach County, Florida. Request for a variance to Sections 5-142(i)(1) "Standards" and Secbion 5--142(i)(2) "Maneuvering Area" of Article X-Parking Lots. Chairman Walshak noted the Board would consolidate discussion on the conditional use and site plan approval and the request for a parking lot variance. Ms. Heyden distri- buted photographs of the site for the Board to view. She outlined the contents of her memorandum to the Board dated November 6, 1989, a copy of which is labeled "Addendum A" and is attached to the original copy of these Minutes in the Office of the City Clerk. Overlays of the site and surrounding parcels were viewed on the overhead projector. Ms. Heyden explained the zoning classifications of the surrounding parcels. Ms. Heyden remarked that the subject parcel with its size constraints and the proposed site plan do not satisfactorily provide for necessary parking spaces and drop-off area, landscaping (screening), sanitation service and emergency access without jeopardizing the health, safety and welfare of the public. The situation is further compounded by the additional traffic and traffic hazards and precedent that would result if the site plan, inclnding the parking lot variances, are approved. The Planning Department recommends that the request for conditional use approval be denied. With regard to the two parking lot variances to allow for "stacking" and backing out vehicles into a public right-of- way, the TRB recommended denial of both variances. Ms. ~eyden requested the Board vote on the variances first, as the conditional use hinged on the parking lot variances. In connection with the conditional use application, the following written comments were made by various departments: MINUTES PLANNING & ZONING BOARD BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA NOVEMBER 14, 1989 Building Department See "Addendum B" attached to the original copy of these Minutes in the Office of the City Clerk. Engineering Department See "Addendum C" attached to the original copy of these Minutes in the Office of the City Clerk. Utilities Department "1.

Forester/Horiculturist ~'1. The trees selected must be 50% native species and hedge must be 30% native. 2. The applicant cannot use potable water for landscape irrigation system." Kim Dellastatious, 39 East Road, Delray Beach, produced a number of photographs of homes which are adjacent to this parcel and felt the Day Care Center would prove to be In harmony with this particular neighborhood. Relative to the question of noise, she noted the ABC Body Shop operates behind this site and produces noise associated with the operation of the business. The neighborhood itself is not really a quiet neighborhood and usually has quite a bit of outdoor activity going on. In connection with the dumpster, Miss Lewis had been in contact with Tank Moody of the Public Works Dept. an~ he had indicated garbage cans would be acceptable. She didn't think the Center Would generate suf- ficient refuse for a dumpster. Miss Deltastatious commented that Miss Lewis had contacted neighbors in the area and had determined that the Center when it opens will probably be half filled by children of neighbors in the immediate vacinity. She did not feel tbs traffic impact would be a problem because of the fact that half of the children would be able to walk to and from school. With regard to emergency vehicles pulling up in the street and thereby blocking cars in the driveway, Miss Dellastatious noted that situation is consistent with what is going on on the rest of that street. In connection with the fire hydrant issue, if the Board felt the Center needed a hydrant closer than 200' from the pro- perty, they would be willing to address this need. A street light exists on the property at the corner and pro- duces, in Miss Dellastatious' opinion, more than enough light for the parking lot. If need be, they would be willing to mount a light on the street light pole and point it toward the parking lot. The street light was not shown on the architectural drawing, so the TRB probably was not aware of it. Relative to the FPL service wires at the rear of the building, Miss Dellastatious noted if they had to they could investigate having underground service to the house. 5 MINUTES PLANNING & ZONING BOARD BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA NOVEMBER 14, 1989 A list of about 80 signatures was produced of neighbors within walking distance that support the need for quality day care at this location. Sheets with additional signa- tures did not make it to the meeting. Comments were made relative to the fact that this will be a business operating during daylight hours and will serve about 27 to 33 preschoolers. Two of the three employees at the Center live within walking distance. Only one employee intends to park daily at the site. Gwen Lewis, 207 N.E. 6th Avenue, Boynton Beach explained to the Board that she is a registered nurse, currently employed at Bethesda Hospital. She has a strong background in the child care field and she explained. She addressed the need for day care centers in the City and noted most existing schools in the area are filled to capacity. Parents in Boynton Beach are taking their children to schools in other cities because there are no openings locally. Miss Lewis had been in contact with HRS and they felt there was a need for a facility in this area. Chairman Walshak explained to Miss Lewis that this site is located within the expanded Community Redevelopment Area. Comments were made about other sites/homes that are for sale in this neighborhood. Discussiun took place regarding the configuration of the back yard. It was noted there is a street of some sort shown on the survey, which almost comes to the back of the property. Ms. Dellastatious stated she thought it used to be an alley. When you are in the back yard you cannot see it, but it does show on the survey. She wondered if it was abandoned. Chairman Walshak asked if there was anyone present who wished to speak in opposition to the application. There was no response from the audience. The following people wished to speak in support of the application: Ms. Fannie Green, 424 N.E. 2nd Street, Boynton Beach stated she lives two doors down from the proposed center and would love to see it approved as she currently has to drive to Delray Beach for care of her four children. Ms. Green indi- cated Miss Lewis has a fine reputation in the neighborhood and the center would be an asset to the area. Commissioner Lee Wische stated he wished to comment not as a Commissioner, but as a taxpayer and citizen. He noted the traffic situation could be alleviated easily. Most of the children will be walking to the center. He felt a system could be set up to stagger the people who drive to the center. 6 MINUTES PLANNING & ZONING BOARD BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA NOVEMBER 14, 1989 MS. Janey Hunter of Delray Beach stated she would like to see the application approved. She feels it is important for parents to have assistance in training their children. Knowing Miss Lewis' lifestyle, Ms. Hunter felt she would help mold these youngsters and thereby benefit the entire community. Ms. Irla Bell, 219 N.E. 6th Avenue, Boynton Beach stated she is Miss Lewis' next door neighbor and she would like to see the center approved as she would like to send her two grandchildren to the center. Mr. Johnny Ward, 1635 N.E. 3rd Street, Boynton Beach, noted the City is growing and in households where both parents work, assistance is needed for child care. He referred to difficulties he and his wife had experienced getting their children into a center because most centers are full. Ms. Mary Smith, 437 N.E. 14th Avenue, Boynton Beach stated that in these times you cannot trust your children to everyone. She felt Miss Lewis is trustworthy and is excellent with children. She made comments addressing the noise issue and parking. Ms. Smith would like to send her 3-year old to the center, if it is approved. As there was no one else who wished to speak in the audience, THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS CLOSED. Several Board members expressed their feelings in support of the project. Mr. Richter thought the parking lot variances could be overcome if we work with the CRA to acquire addi- tional parking close by. He expressed some concern with cars backing out into the street and safety. Mr. Zimmerman noted time will produce changes and over the years, as the Center's personnel chanaes and the school con- tinues, there will be a need for more parking. Mr. Lehnertz made comments regarding the parking in incle- ment weather when more people would be driving. He felt children generate quite a bit of refuse and a dumpster should be mandatory. He understood this was a legal non- conforming lot and single family house at the present time. He had reservations about taking an area this small and con- verting it into something that would accommodate up to 33 children. Mr. Howard wanted to see improvements made to the parking situation, the FPL power line situation straightened out and something worked out with regard to the fire hydrant. Other than that, he saw a great need for the day care center. MINUTES - PLANNING & ZONING BOARD BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA NOVEMBER 14, 1989 Chairman Walshak felt the community needs the center and it is up to the Board to make tough decisions on whether or not to grant these variances. He felt the benefit far out- weighed the variances the Board would be making. Motions Mr. Blanchette moved for the approval of the parking lot variances. Mr. Collins seconded the motion which carried 7-0. Mr. Collins moved that the Board approve the request for the conditional use and site plan approval to convert the resi- dence ~into a Day Care Center. Mr. Collins wished to omit staff comments. Mr. Richter seconded the motion. Mr. Lehnertz asked if that meant anything in the staff com- ments could be ignored. Mr. Collins amended his motion and stated in reference to staff comments, that the owner should get with the City to try and work out an agreement regarding the FPL overhead lines and the fire hydrant. It was noted the issue concerning the dumpster could obviously not be accommodated. Lighting of the drop-off area also cannot be accommodated. Mr. Richter seconded the amended motion. Mr. Blanchette commented there are some other things that will prove very difficult for this lot to comply with. When this is brought before the TRB he hoped they would analyze this very closely and "give in" where they have to. ~e felt that was the consensus of the Board. Otherwise, he felt they would never get a permit. Chairman Walshak called for a vote on the motion. The motion carried 5-2. Mr. Lehnertz and Mr. Zimmerman voted against the motion. Chairman Walshak suggested that Miss Lewis speak to Johnnetta Broomfield, Director of Community Improvement about the project.

Jim Golden explained this was a resubmittal of a previous request which came before the Board and which was denied in connection with the conditional use application. The con- ditional use was subsequently approved by the City Commission and the restaurant is under construction. The applicant has requested to be permitted to construct a 24 wide driveway onto Boynton Beach Blvd., approximately 158' from the intersecting right-of-way lines. Mr. Golden explained the material containedlin Mr. Annunziato's October 20, i989 memorandum to the Board. This memorandum is labeled "Addendum E" and is attached to the original copy of these Minutes in the Office of thee City Clerk. The TRB essentially reevaluated this request on the basis of the restaurant having been approved and on the basis of mitigating some potential problems that could result, par- ticu~arly on 1st Street. The TRB recommended the variance be approved subject to a "No Left Turn" sign being placed at the egress onto Boynton Beach Blvd. Mr. James Storms 2222 N. Federal Hwy., Delray Beach, was present to represent Jua~ Gavilan. Mr. Storms noted there are two curb cuts on the south property line. They proposed to close off the one closest to the intersection and modify the curb cut on the west property line. He distributed a letter from Walt Lashley, Traffic Engineer for the D.O.T. which indicated that by using the existing curb cut on Boynton Beach Blvd., it would create better internal cir- culation within theparking lot and would eliminate any problems with the existing car wash on the east side of N.E. 1st Street. The D.O.T. recommended a right turn only onto Boynton Beach Blvd. Plans for the curb cut have been sub- mitted to the D.O.T. Because of the size of the property, being only 206' long~ and with the parking requirements that they have for the site, it is physically Impossible to have a driveway that meets the~requirements of 180' from the intersecting right- of-way lines. Chairman Walshak asked if there was anyone present in the audience who wished to speak in oposition to or in support of the application. As there was no response from the audience, THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS CLOSED. 9 MINUTES - PLANNING & ZONING BOARD BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA NOVEMBER 14, 1989 Motion Mr. Blanchette moved that the request for the variance be approved, subject to the right turn only comment. Mr. Collins seconded the motion which carried 6-1. Mr. Lehnertz voted against the motion. 4.

Woolbright Road at S.W. 8th Street extended, northeast corner See "Addendum F" attached to the original copy of these Minutes in the Office of the City Clerk. Request for Site Plan approval to construct a 102,250 square foot build~ng materials store on a 10.526 acre parcel at the Shoppes of Woolbright Planned Commercial Development. Jim Golden explained this project consists of two parts: a Master Plan modification and S~te Plan. In connection with the Master Plan modification, Mr. Golden outlined the con- tents of his November 7, 1989 memorandum to the Board. This memorandum is labeled "Addendum G" and is attached to the original copy of these Minutes in the Office of the City Clerk. The TRB recommended that this request be approved as sub- mitted. This recommendation was based on findings made by the TRB that the addition of the proposed use would not result in a negative impact on infrastructure delivery systems or the surrounding area in general. Chairman Walshak asked Mr. Golden what impacts are there other than the economic impacts of traffic, water and sewer. Mr. Golden responded if there were residential properties located next door you would possibly get into aesthetics, noise, odors, glare and things of that nature. In this case we are talking about a PCD. Chairman Walshak felt the language should be cleared up in this regard in the Code itself. On one hand it says the Planning & Zoning Board has the right if it's under 10% to hear it and finalize it. It seemed to him that traffic, water and sewage impact were basically all the impacts. The 10% measurable impact seemed to be superfluous language when the Board did not have a 11 ? ................... MINUTES PLANNING & ZONING BOARD BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA NOVEMBER 14, 1989 right to finalize it. Either this should be taken out or the Board should consider for final approval anything under 10%. Chairman Walshak asked Mr. Cannon to put this topic on the Agenda for discussion at the next Planning & Zoning Board meeting. In connection with the Site Plan, Mr. Golden explained Home Depot proposes to construct a 102,250 sq. ft. building materials store on a 10.526 acre parcel at the Shoppes of Woolbright. This parcel is located at the south end of the shopping center site. Between this parcel and S.W. 8th St. extende~ is a proposed out parcel site, which is not part of this request. The remaining shopping center site north of Home Depot is to be sold and is not part of this request. It is proposed to connect the main shopping center with the ~orth end of the Home Depot site and continue it north and then a~ound to the west. Overlays of the conceptual site plan ware viewed on the overhead projector. Access will be provided by way of S.W. 8th St., the main driveway to the shopping center. The primary parking area will be located in front of the building. There will be additional parking located in the rear. On the north side there will be an outdoor Garden Center with loading and ser- vice areas. Colored elevations were viewed. A parapet will be provided to screen the satellite dish and mechanical equipment on top of the building. The recommendation ~rom the TRB is for approval, subject to the following staff comments: Building Department See "Addendum H" attached to the original copy of these Minutes in the Office of the City Clerk.

Fire Department "A meeting was held prior to TRB with the appropriate repre- sentatives. No further comments are in order." In connection with the Master Plan modification, Mr. Lehnertz noted it appeared as if the size of the origi- nal store had been increased. Mr. Cannon responded the City Commission had taken action to expand the retail square footage to approximately 320,000 sq. ft. as part of an "enhancement deal." The entire Site Plan for this parcel will look drastically different from what the Board was viewing. The square footage will be substantially increased from what was on this Site Plan. Mr. Lehnertz wondered why the Board was being asked to approve this at this point. Mr. Cannon responded this was the first phase. This store was anticipated prior to the Commission taking action to add the additional square footage. The square footage will be added to the north and will not substan- tially affect the south end of the center. Mr. Zimmerman requested more information regarding the out parcel. Mr. Golden responded there were some conditions in that regard on the Site Plan, for possibly a sit down restaurant or financial institution. Mr. Golden recalled that this had been approved as part of the overall settle- ment and the approval of the Master Plan. David Flinchum of Stanley Consultants, 2000 Lombard Street, West Palm Beach was present at the meeting and stated they were in agreement with staff comments. Some staff comments had been incorporated in the resubmittal and the remaining ones will be incorporated into the engineering drawings. 13 MINUTES PLANNING & ZONING BOARD BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA NOVEMBER 14, 1989 Motion Mr. Richter moved to approve the amended Master Plan modifi- cation to allow for the addition of the building materials store. Mr. Howard seconded the motion which carried 6-1. Mr. Lehnertz voted against the motion. Mr. Blanchette moved to approve the request for site plan approval to construct the building materials store, subject to staff comments. Mr. Collins seconded the motion which carried 6-1. Mr. Lehnertz voted against the motion. A brie~ recess was called at 9:05 P.M. The meeting resumed at 9:15 P.M. Vacancy on the Planning & Zoning Board Chairman Walshak remarked that the Board now had a vacancy due to Mrs. Huckle's fourth absence from a regular meeting. He asked that this information be passed along so that a new member can b~appointed. 2. Project Name: Lawson Group Industrial Building Agent: David E.

Request for site plan approval to construct a 28,086 sq. ft. church on 4.77 acres. Mr. Golden explained the height of the proposed church exceeds the 25' height allowed in the R-lA zoning district by 16'. The Board of Adjustment approved a variance to the height limit at the November 13, 1989 meeting. Although staff had determined at the pre-variance meeting that a height exception, not a variance, would be more appropriate in this instance, the Building Official took this matter to the City Attorney~ who ruled.the height exception did not apply to this request. On that basis, comment 91 on the Planning Dept. memorandum dated November 8, 1989 requiring the height exception, should be deleted. Access to the site is provided adjacent to the Boynton Canal right-of-way at the south property line. The main parking lot driveway continues east, adjacent to the Canal right-of- way. A drop-off area is provided on the south side of the building. There is some parking provided in front of the building, however, most of the parki.ng is provided in the rear.

Mr. Abdallah indicated they were in agreement with staff comments. Chairman Walshak noted color elevations had not been received. He recommended that they be made available when this matter comes before the Commission. Mr. Abdallah was agreeable. Motion Mr. Collins moved to approve the request for site plan approval to construct the church, subject to staff comments. Mr. Lehnertz seconded the motion which carried 7-0. 8. OTHER A. Chapter 19 - Final review and recommendations prior to fOrwarding to City Commission Chairman Walshak requested the Planning Department correct any remaining areas that needed to be corrected in Chapter 17 MINUTES - PLANNING & ZONING BOARD BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA NOVEMBER 14, 1989 19, taking out all portions struck through etc. so it will be suitable for presentation to the City Commission. Also, all references to City Planner and City Council should be changed to Planning Director and City Commission in the final version. Mr. Golden acknowledged there was an omission in the material and they would take care of it. The consensus was to TABLE the Chapter 19 discussion until the next meeting on December 12, 1989. Mr. Cannon asked if all seven items under General Comments should be incorporated into the text. Chairman Walshak responded if they pertain to something that should be in there or should be changed, those changes should be made in the final draft. Section 19-22 needed to have something added to Mr. Gokden referred to the comment about the CRA and the Downtown Review Board being disbanded. Chairman Walshak stated all references to the Downtown Review Board could be removed because that is what the Board had suggested. He explained the CRA process now is from technical review directly to the CRA. Mr. Golden noted it would still need to be indicated in some type of cover memo that the Board is recommending that be moved to Chapter 2 and provided for in that area. Chairman Walshak agreed and noted they may have a comment or two with reference to other sections. Chairman Walshak asked that this be taken care of in time for the next meeting. Business Workshop Seminar at Catalina Center chairman Walshak noted on Friday, November 17, 1989 at 9:00 A.M. a Workshop Seminar was to be held at the Holiday Inn, Catalina Center which is being sponsored by Ocean Properties and other companies. Chairman Walshak had been asked to come and review Chapter 19 with them. An invitation has been extended to the City Commission, members of the Board and the press. Mr. Cannon and Mr. Jaeger indicated they were planning on attending. B. Proposed Ordinance change for Home Occupation Licenses Don Jaeger, Building Official, explained that with this pro- posed Ordinance, people will be able to have, with certain reservations, businesses in their homes. He felt businesses operating from homes are a growing trend. Also, there are a lot of home occupations that exist, which the City doesn't 18 MINUTES PLANNING & ZONING BOARD BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA NOVEMBER 14, 1989 know about and is therefore losing revenue on, as they are not being licensed properly. He noted they were constantly getting requests to allow this type of use. Essentially, the restrictions are that the residential character of the neighborhood not be compromised by these uses. Discussion took place and it was noted home occupations are allowed currently in R-1A~ R-l, R-2 and R-3. This will expand it into R-1AA, R-1AAA, R-1AAAB and PUDs. Comments were made about f~es for tha licenses. Chairman Walshak wondered if consideration should be given to a specific licensing category entitled, "Office" because some people run small businesses that may consist of only a desk, telephone and file cabinet. Mr. Jaeger commented that revamping the licensing code is not really the respon- sibility of this Board. When this g,ets to the Commission, if the Commission wishes to i~itiate that, it will be their prerogative. Mr. Jaeger was satisfied with the way the pro- pOsed Ordinance was drafted. Mr. Zimmerman noted that in some PUDs there are deed restrictions that do not permit the use of a single family home in any type of occupational enterprise. He thought we might be making it more difficult for some PUDs to enforce their restrictions. Mr. Jaeger responded that would not be an issue that the City would get involved in at all. Our Ordinances do not relate to deed restrictions which would be a contractual agreement between the owner of the parcel and the.ir association. Mr. Zimmerman added it is unfortunate that people do not understand this. In connection with the proposed Ordinance, Mr. Cannon could find no problem with it as far as consistency with the Comprehensive Plan, since home occupations are allowed in residential Land Use categories. Motion Mr. Blanchette moved that the Board had found this proposed Ordinance change to be consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and requested the City Commission approve this Ordinance. Mr. Richter seconded the motion which carried 7-0. C. Consistency Review for Residences in Commercial Zoning Districts Mr. Cannon explained that right now in any Commercial Zoning District, the Zoning Code allows a single family dwelling unit when "incidental and necessary to the main use." This has been interpreted to mean that you could have a dwelling 19 MINUTES - PL~-NNING & ZONING BOARD BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA NOVEMBER 14, 1989 above or next to your place of business, or on the same lot, if there is some dire need for you to occupy the dwelling at that location. This could be in an emergency type situation. The Mayor had inquired why a shop owner could not do the same thing and asked the City Attorney to draw up some language that would allow that type of use. In reading the proposed Ordinance, Mr. Cannon thought the City Attorney had gone a little too far. ~Vir. Cannon thought perhaps the City Attorney should have changed single family occupancy in the Ordinance to "a dwelling unit" and struck out "necessary." What happens is you are allowing apartment buildings and rooming and boarding houses to be placed in C-1 and C-2 zoning districts, where they currently are not allowed. The way the proposed Ordinance ~s writmen is that any use permitted within the R-3 Multiple-Family Dwelling District would be allowed within C-l, and also consequently, the C-2, C-3 and C-4 zoning di,stricts, because of pyra- miding. Comments were made ab~out situations where busi- nesses such as mini-warehouses like to have a small residence on site where a security guard can live and moni- tor security. Mr. Cannon remarked that the problem as far as consistency with the Comprehensive Plan is that multiple-family dwellings are not in the list of uses which we now have for the Office/Commercial category and the Industrial category. Technical discussion took place between Chairman Walshak and Mr. Cannon on how the language could be worded. Mr. Cannon noted the City Attorney had taken his instruc- tions from the City Commission. Mr. Cannon was at that meetin~ and thought the City Attorney had gone beyond what the Com~ission wanted to see. Chairman Walshak clarified that the Board can only find that the Ordinance is or isn't consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. The Board can recommend approval or denial. That is the Board's function. Other comments were made about the Mixed Use District and possibly asking the Commission to send the proposed Ordinance back to the City Attorney for correcting. Chairman Walshak would like to see the R-3 stricken because we are talking about single family residen- ces. Instead of R-3 he would like to see R-1. He felt that would solve the problem and it would then be consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. He noted it is not the Board's decision to make but is the Commission's decision. Mr. Cannon suggested use of the language, "any residential use allowed in the R-1 District which is an accessory use to a Commercial Use." 20 MINUTES PLANNING & ZONING BOARD BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA NOVEMBER 14, 1989 Lengthy discussion took place about apartments being "necessary" to the operation of a business. Mr. Lehnertz remarked that an apartment above a gas station is not necessary to run the gas station. However, if the owner of the gas station lives in the apartment, it is an incidental use and he felt the idea of the Commission was to make these allowable incidental uses even if they're not necessary. It was noted that this is not what the proposed Ordinance currently says. Mr. J~eger remarked he spoke to Mr. Rea, as he was also con- cerned about this proposed Ordinance. Mr. Rea felt this was what the Commission wanted. This topic is on the Agenda for the Special Commission meeting on November 15, 1989. Mr. Jaeger recollected that this issue came up in connection with the Safe Keeping Mini Wamehouses where you had an apartment in the main building, above the office. He felt this should go for M-1 as well as the Commercial. It should be "a dwelling unit which is incidental to the main use." Mr. Cannon noted the way the Ordinance is written right now is not consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. Mr. Cannon didn't think it would be consistent if it were simply changed to R-1 either, as the Plan does not allow a dwelling unit in and by itself within the C-1 zoning district. Mr. Cannon repeated it is better to say "a dwelling unit which is incidental to a commercial use." Mr. Richter agreed that language would make it consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. Mr. Richter moved to TABLE this topic until the December 12 meeting and in the meantime, Mr. Cannon will find out exactly what the City Commission and the City Attorney want in this regard. Mr. Lehnertz seconded the motion which carried 7-0. Discussion on Absences from Board Meetings Discussion took place regarding the fact that there are twelve regular Planning & Zoning Board meetings during the year. There are many more special meetings and workshop meetings. Comments were made about possibly recommending that the Commission address the Planning & Zoning Board on absences and perhaps change the policy for this Board so that it would include regular, special and workshop meeting absences. Mr. Golden remarked that he understood Marilyn Huckle had submitted her resIgnation from the'Board to the Mayor. Chairman Walshak noted that basically the Board has had an unoccupied seat for several months, during which time there have been many meetings. 21 MINUTES - PLANNING & ZONING BOARD BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA NOVEMBER 14, 1989 Chairman Walshak asked and it could be brought next meeting. the Board members to think about this up for further discussion at the ADJOURNMENT The meeting properly adjourned at Shannon Burk Record ing Secretary (Three Tapes) 10:12 P.M. TO: THRU: F~OM: RE: MEMORANDUM November 6, 1989 Chairman and Members Planning and Zoning Board Timothy P. Cannon ~ Interim Planning Director Tambri J. Heyden Assistant City Planner ~ Lewis Day Care center - C~nditional Use Application File No. 346 Summary: Kimberly Dellaetatious, agenu for Gwen Lewis, contract purchaser, is requesting conditional use approval to convert a single family home located at 510 N.E 2~d. Street int6.a 1500 square foot day care center (see Exhibit 'A' for the sUrvey_of the existing conditions of the site). The .18 acre parcel is on the east side of N.E. 2nd Street, approximately 730 feet north of the intersection of Boynton Beach Boulevard and N.E. 2nd~itreet. The property is in the R-2, Single and Two Family D~lli~g District. Day care centers ar'e permitted in the R-2 d~trict subject to conditional use approval. Currently, no parking lot exists on the 50 foot by 156 foo~J~lot. By-code, a parking lot meeting the parking lot regulation~must be constructed. Because of the size constraints of the lot~!this conditional use application is aecompanied by an addi~onal public hearing application for two parking lot variances ~nd a sidewalk exception. A description of these applications provided below. (1) 2 Parking Lot Variances The applicant zs requesting relief from Article X, Parking Lots, Section 5-142(i)(1) which requires that parking lots be designed to meet or exceed the dimen- sional requirements for stalls, driveways and access aisles as provided in the City standards. The appli- canu is also requesting relief from Section 5-142[i)(2) which states, among other things, that parking lots Shall not be designed to allo~ vehicles ~o back out into any public alley or road rights-of-way. (For a detailed explana6ion of the variances requested, please r~fer to the memorandum concerning approval of the parking lot variance request under separate cover}'item 7A2 on the November 14, 1989 Planning and Zoning Board Agenda.) (2) Sidewalk Exception The applicant is requesting relief fzom Chapter 22, Section 22-25(b) which requires that a sidewalk be constructed along the property adjacent to N.E. 2nd Street. Sidewalks may be waived administratively with approval by the Technical Review Board. It was the consensus of the Technical Review Board that sidewalks are needed in this residential neighborhood, however the parking lot layout proposed promotes a potentially hazardous situation of vehicles backing into the right- of-way (see attached copy of site plan). Installation of a sidewalk would exacerbate this situation. There- fore, it was the determination of the Technical Review Board that approval of the sidewalk exception be con- tingent upon City Commission approval of the site plan submitted with the conditional use application for the day care center use. 1 "ADDENDUM A" Surrounding Land Uses and Zoning: Abutting the subject parcel uo the north and soutk, zoned R-2, are single family homes in fair condition. Abutting the property to the west is a fifty (50) foot wide right-of-way for N.E. 2nd Street. Further west, zoned R-2, are duplexes in fair condition. Abutting the property to the northeast, zoned C-4, General Commercial, is a vacant parcel. The rear portion of this vacant parcel is fenced, enclosing vehicles and miscellaneous materials. East of the subject property is a triplex in fair condition. Further east are three parcels; two are occupied by single family homes and one is occupied by a single family home ,and accessory building that , have been converted into a roof painting contractor's office and storage building. Standards for Evaluating Conditional Uses: Section ll.2.D of ,the Zoning Regulations contains standards to which conditional uses are required to conform. These standards are listed below. Following each of these standards is the Planning Department's evaluation of the application as to whether it would comply with the particular standard. The Planning and Zoning Board and City Coramission shall consider only such conditional uses as are authorized under the terms %f these zoning regulations, and, in connection therewith, may grant conditional uses absolutely or conditioned upon the faithful adherence to and fulfillment of such restrictions and conditions including, but not limited to, the dedication of property for streets, alleys, and recreation space, and sidewalks, as shall be necessary for the protection of the surrounding area and the citizens' general welfare, or deny conditional uses when not in harmony With the intent and purpose of this section. In eval- uating an application for conditional use, the Board and Corm~is- sion shall consider the effect of the proposed use on the general health,' safety, and welfare of the community, and make written findings certifying that satisfactory provision has been made concerning the following standards, where applicable: 1. Ingress and egress to the subject property and proposed structures thereon, with particular reference to automobile and pedestrian safety and convenience, traffic flow and control, and access in case of fire or catastrophe. As shown on the attached copy of the site plan, no driveways or access aisles are provided for ,vehicular access to the subject property. The ingress and egress proposed, resulting from vehicles backing out into N.E. 2nd Street, a public right-of-way, 3eopardize both vehicular and pedestrian safety and prQmote haphazard traffic circulation. As previously mentioned, the applicant has submitted a parking lot variance 'application requesting ~o construct a parking lot without a driveway or access aisle due to size constraints of the subject property, as well as a parking lot variance application ~o construct a parking Lot designed to allow vehicles to back out into the road right-of-way. (The issues related to the parking lot variances are discussed in detail in the Planning Deparument memorandum concerning the Technical Review Board recommendation of the variances under separate cover.) With respect ~o traffic generated by the day care' center, typically day care cenuers exhibit increased traffic levels during the early morning (approximately 7:30-9:00 A.M.) and late afternoon (approximately 4:00-5:30 P.M.) hours. Therefore, this use will place additional traffic onto N.E. 2nd Street, a 50 foot local street designed to provide access to residences, impacting the surrounding neighborhood which also exhibits its greatest traffic levels in the early morning and early evening hours when families are going to and from work and school. With respect to emergency access, emergency vehicles would have to park in the right-of-way because no access aisles or driveways are provided. Not only is this a conflict with passing vehicles on N.E. 2nd Street, but emergency vehicles parked in ~the right-of-way would "park in" or block vehicles from leaving or entering the parking lot during an emergency. 2. Off street parking and loading areas where required, with particular attention to the items in subsection D.t. above, and the economic, glare, noise, and odor effects the condi- tional use would have on adjacent and nearby properties, and the City ,as a whole. The Department of Health and Rehabilitative Services (H.R.S.) regulates day care centers with respect to such things as the amount of indoor and outdoor play area required per child super- vised and the number of staff and bathroom facilities required per child supervised. The applicant anticipates providing day care to approximately 28-30 children ranging from infants to 5 years of ~ge. Taking this into Consideration with the H.R.S. staff requirement, (see Exhibit 'B" for the H.R.S. staff ratios reproduced from Chapter 10M=12.002 F.A.C. pertaining to child day care centers) as many as 3 of the 5 parking spaces required by code and shown on the site plan will be occupied by staff. ,of the 2 remaining spaces, one is required to be, a handicap space and the other is "stacked" or obstructed by a parking space making it usable only when the parking space obstructing it is vacant (one of the parking lot variance applications submitted includes a request to stack one of the five parking space~ required for this use). In addition to a shortage of "usable" parking spaces for parents and visitors dropping off and ~icking up children~ a functional drop-off area has not been provided as required by code. On May 16, 1989, the City Commission amended the parking space require- ments for day care centers based upon data compiled from day care centers in Palm Beach County. At this time the requirement was changed from 1 parking space for every 200 square feet of gross floor area to 1 parking space for every 300 square feet of gross floor area, plus adequate provision for a convenient drop-off area adjacent to the buildiag, having unobstructed ingress and egress. ~ The passenger drop-off area delineated on the site plan is located within the N.E. 2nd Street right-of-way. It is separated from the building by the parking spaces provided which back into the right-of-way. Therefore, the layout and design of the drop-off area does not meet the intent of the code as ingress and egress to the drop-area will be obstructed by vehicles pullihg'in and out of parking spaces. Due to size constraints ,of the lot, the drop-off area nor the =equired number of parking spaces, unless "stacked" as shown on the site plan, can be accommodated on the subject parcel to comply with code. With respect to noise, an outdoor play area is required to be provided by H.R.S. as previously mentioned. This will occupy the entire rear yard of the lot, a 50 foot by approximately 76 foot fenced area. However, because of the narrow width of this lot and adjacent lots, it is anticipated that noise from the play area may be a nuisance to residences to the north, south and east during the daytime hours of operation. Refuse and service areas, with particular reference to the items in subsection D.1 and D.2. above. The Public Works Department has indicated that garbage can pick up will not be sufficient to serve this use and that a dumpster will be needed. However, the size of the lot cannot accommodate a dumpster, with a pad and enclosure, that has safe and efficient access for sanitation trucks without obstruction from vehicles in the parking lot (see Public Works Department memo). 4. Utilities, with reference to locations, availability, and compatibility. Day care centers are classified as institutional uses with ~' respect to fire hydrant coverage, and.require that no point of such facilities may exceed 200 feet from a fire hydrant. The existing fire hydrants are approximately 250 feet and 300 feet from the remotest part of the existing building and the applicant has not provided for additional fire protection on the plans submitted. Por residential use of the,building, such as the existing single family home, the fire hydrant coverage that exists is sufficient. However, conversion of the home to a day care center will require installation~ofan additional hydrant as discussed in the attached Utilities Department memorandum, 5. Screening, buffering, and landscaping, with reference to t!ppe, dimension, and character. The proposed landscaping does not meet the landscape code in that the required landscaping adjacent te N.E. 2nd Street, between the right-of-way line and the parking area, cannot be pr6vided, again due to size constraints of the parcel. It is the intent of t~is requirement for a five foot wide strip of land, including a hedge or wall and trees 40 foot on center, =o visually screen parking areas from adjacent public rights-of-way. The applicant has submitted the appropriate application =o the Building Department to appeal this requirement through the Community Appearance Board. Ail other landscaping, screening and buffering require- ments of the landscape and zoning codes have been met with the exception of dumps~er screening as a dumpster was no= shown on the plans. 6. Signs, ~nd proposed exterior lighting,3 with reference to glare, traffic safety, and economic effect, and compatibil- ity and harmony with adjacent and nearby properties. No business identification or traffic control signs are shown on the plans submitted. As indicated in the Planning Department memorandum, future site plan approval will be requiredif a free- standing sign is desired. . ' With respec= to lighting, two building-mounted lights are proposed. Because patrolling police officers have experienced glare problems from lights mounted on buildings shining out into the right-of-way, only pole-mounted lights are permitted in the parking lot regulations. It is likely that glare from.~the parking lot light(s) will present a nuisance to the adjacent single family homes, again due to the narrow lot widths and close proximity of the homes in th~s area. At a minimum, parking lot lights should be directed away from the adjacent residences. 7. Required setbacks and other open spaces. The existing 1,260 square foot single family home is a legal nonconforming structure with respec~ to side yards which are 6.45 feet: 10 foot side yards are required. Two small additions are proposed to the existing suruc~ure on the north (side) and east (rear) sides of the building, increasing the gross flo6r of the day care center by 240 square feet for a total of 1,500 square feet. The addition is permissible in that it does not increase the nonconformity of the structure. Although the City does no~ enforce the H.R.S. regulations for day care centers, the Community Improvement Director (see attached memorandum) has pointed out that there are low, overhead electrical wires running across the rear of the property which is to be used ~o meet the outside play area requirement. If these wires were to break or fall from the poles due to an accident, they would pose s ~azard to any children utilizing the play area at that time. 4 8. General compatibility with adjaeen~ properties, and other properties in the zoning district, It is questionable whether the proposed use is compatible with adjacent Properties a~d other properties in the zonin~ district. Although the City's zoning code allo~s day care centers in the R-2 and R-3 residential districts, all commercial districts sub- ject to conditional use approval, planned unit developments 'and planned commeroial developments ii shown on the master plan at time of rezoning and planned industrial developments if approved by the Planning and Zoning Board~ it is argued by some that day care centers are more appropr~atel~ located in residential districts where the need occurs and where the environment is safer for children and resembles a home environment. Also, the proposed additions to the existing structure will incorporate similar building style, materials and colors, enabling t~e new day care center use ~o retain a ~ingle family home appearance. Conversely, the requirement for a parking lot, the proximity of the outside play area to adjacent properties and the traffic conditions ass0oiated with a day care center use, due to factors cited in previous seOtions of this report and the memorandum concerning approval of the parking lot variance request, .support th~ argument t~at the proposed use is not compatible with the adjacent residential properties in this area. 9. Height of buildings and structures, with reference to compatibility and harmony, with adjacent and nearby properties, and the City as a whole. The existing building, as well as the addition, are one story and compatible with the surrounding neighborhood, 10. Economic effects on adjacen~ properties.and City as a whole. It cannot be concluded whether the proposed use would have a significant ~dverse effect upon the property values of the surrounding neighborhood. The traffic generated by the use and the daytime noise during hours of operation would have a negative impact, however the improved appearance of the parcel resulting from additional, required landscaping, sodding and irrigation and general building maintenance may result ~n increased proper~y values for surrounding properties that are in fair condition. Also, this residential neighb?rhood may benefit from a ~ew day care center in such close proximity to duplexes and single family homes. Comprehensive Plan Policies: The following 1986 Comprehensive Plan Evaluation and Appraisal Repor~ Policies are~ relevan~ to this conditional use application: "Provide a suitable living environment in all neighborhoods." (p. 6) "Provide a range of land use types ~o accommodate a f~ll range of services and activities." (p. 7) "Eliminate existing and potential land use conflicts." (p. 7) "Encourage th~ development of complementary land uses." (p. 7) "Encourage the development of commercial land uses where accessibility i~ the greatest and where impacts to residential uses are minimized." (p. 7) "Provide for efficient and safe movement within the City." (p. 7) Conclusion/Recommendation: The fact that day care centers are a conditional use in the R-2, R-3, CBD, C-I, C-2, C-3, and C-4 zoning districts implies that this type of use would be suitable at some locations (where satisfactory provisions can bemade concerning any negative impacts while protecting the health, safety and welfare of the community) and unsuitable at other locations. In this instance, it is reasonable to assume that a day care center located within a single family and two family neighborhood is suitable due to the close proximity of child'care to the hemes of many families with children. However, the subject parcel with its size constraints and the proposed site plan do no= satisfactorily provide for necessary parking,spaces~and drop-off area, landscaping (screening), sanitation service and emergency access without jeopardizing the health, safety and welfare of the public. This Situation is further compounded by the additional %raffic and traffic hazardsand precedent that would result if the site plan, including the parking lot variances, are approved. With respect to the above, the PlanKing Department recommends that this request for conditional use a~proval be denied. Should this conditional ~se be approved, it should be subject to those staff commen>cs a~tached whi6h would not be in conflict With an, approval. TJH:frb Tambri J.

ANNUNZIATO, PLANNING DIRECTOR RE: KENTUCKY FRIED CHICKEN PARKING LOT VARIANCE 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 a 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). Siteworks architects and Planners, Inc., agent for Juan Gavilan, property owner, is requesting a variance to Section 5-142(h)(3) "Driveways" of the Parking Lot Regulations which requires, among other things, that no driveways may be constructed closer than 180 feet to the intersection of the rights-of-way lines on streets of a higher classification (arterials/collectors). East Boynton Beach Boulevard is classified as a Minor Arterial according to the 1985 Functional Classification within the Traffic and Circulation Element of the 1986 Comprehensive Plan Evaluation and Appraisal Report. The property in question is located at the northwest corner of East Boynton Beach Boulevard and N.E. 1st Street. In this instance, the applicant is requesting to be permitted to construct a twenty-four (24) foot wide driveway onto East Boynton Beach Boulevard, approximately 158 feet from the intersecting right-of-way lines between East Boynton Beach Boulevard and N.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 Thursday, October 19, 1989 the Technical Review Board (TRB) met to review the plans and documents submitted and to formulate a recommendation with regard to the variance requested. After review and discussion, the TRB recommended that the variance "ADDENDUM E" request be approved, subject to a "no left turn" sign being placed at the egress onto Boyn~on Beach Boulevard. This recommendation was based on findings made by the Technical Review Board that the addition of this driveway would help to mitigate a potentially severe congestion problem on N.E. 1st Street when both the restaurant and the neighboring car wash are operating at times of peak use.
