Owing to the importance of tonight, if the Board was desirous to dispense with the presentations, he suggested perhaps they could move on by ask- ing the applicants if they were aware of the staff comments. In all instances, the applicants should be aware of the comments, and the Board could move on the basis of the agenda packages the Members had.

Kiviniemi, of Simmons & White, Inc., Engineers, Planners, and Consultants, 4623 Forest Hill Boulevard, Suite 112, West Palm Beach, Florida 33415, agreed with the staff comments from the Fire and Engineering Departments but questioned item 5 in the Memorandum from Tom Clark, City Engineer. -4- MINUTES - PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA OCTOBER 8, 1985 Mr. Annunziato explained that there are two problems with the street n~ames. They are flower names and some are difficult to pronounce. The real problem is that some of them are duplicated in other areas of the City and County. It was Mr. Kiviniemi's understanding, that these names were previously approved. A representative of Boynton West Corporation entered the room, and Mr. Kiviniemi said the question should be referred to him. Mr. Kiviniemi stated that they want to keep the flower names. Mr. Annunziato suggested that they keep the flower names and change the names of those that are difficult to pronounce and those which are duplicates of existing streets. The man from Boynton West Corporation indicated that was all right. Mr. deLong moved, seconded by Mr. Pagliarulo, to approve the preliminary7-0. plat, subject to staff comments. Motion carried C. SITE PLANS Project Name: Agent: Owner: Location: Description: Humana MedFirst Randy B. Oakes, Project Manager Robert Q. and Doris E. Wyckoff Clarence H. and Airane S. Lansford South side of Boynton Beach Boulevard east of N. W. 7th Street ' Request for site plan approval to construct a 3,125 square foot medical clinic on .58 acres Mr. Annunziato advised that staff recommended this item be tabled in order for the applicant to provide a traffic analysis with respect to entry and exit from the site. He drew attention to his Memorandum of October 2, 1985 and said the applicant concurred with the recommendation. Chairman Ryder said there was concern here about access on Boynton Beach Boulevard. Apparently, the recommendation was for one way going eastward. It appeared to him to. be so close to the on ramp going south on 1-95 that it would pose a problem. Mr'~Annunziato agreed that it was part of the problem. The second problem is westward bound traffic. There are only two lanes of through traffic ~there, and. there is~ a median cut which he believed served 7th Street. It did not look like there was an opportunity for a left turn lane west- bound. Mr. Annunziato said the Department of Transportation is preparing to make some median modifications in this area in the future, so he suggested that the applicant have his traffic expert take a look at what DOT is planning and the turning move- ments in the area to arrive at some conclusions that will allow for a safer, site. - 5 - MINUTES - PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA OCTOBER 8, 1985 Mrs. Huckle moved to table this matter, seconded by Mr Winter Motion carried 7-0. - .

Mr. Steiner confirmed Chairman Ryder's statement that the present parking lot remains. There was discussion about the tworatio stories, of the building to the parking. The building will have Mr. Wandelt moved to approve the site plan, subject to staff comments. Mr. Winter seconded the motion, and the motion carried 7-0.

Mr. Annunziato said they have not signed up any banks for any leases a~ apparentl~ do not intend to so the area where the drive-thru'was supposed to be is now to be just a parking lot. Mr. Annunziato talked to the applicant this afternoon and asked if he had any concerns about the project. The applicant told him he was aware of the staff comments and was going to accept them. Mr. deLong moved that the site plan modification be approved, subject to staff comments from the Planning Department. Mr. Winter seconded the motion, and the motion carried 7-0. 5. Project Name: Woolbright Professional Plaza Agent: John F. Wheeler, P.E. Owner: J. Ronald Simmons, Trustee Location: South side of Woolbright Road east of Congress Avenue ' Description: Request for approval of an amended site plan to allow for the addition of an access driveway to Congress Avenue Mr. Annunziato told the Members the applicant is proposing to construct an access road from the southwest corner of his property westward to Congress Avenue. This would be south of Lindsley Lumber, adjacen~ to Cedarwood Villas recommended that this be a~ro~7~ ~.~ .... ' The. staff Bulldin , En in ' ~ _v~, ou~3~o comments from the g g eerlng, and Planning Departments. Mr. deLong asked how many feet it would be from the intersection. Mr. Annunziato estimated it would be about 300 feet. John F. Wheeler, Engineer, Caulfield & Wheeler, Inc., 2290 N. W. 2nd Avenue, Suite 3, Boca Raton, Florida 33431, appeared as Agent and explained to Chairman Ryder that this was an ease- ment that was granted when the property was purchased by his client. There was discussion about the construction. Mr. Wheeler agreed with all of the staff comments but with reference to the comment from the Planning Department asking that they dedicate an additional ten feet of right-of-way for Congress Avenue, he said they do not actually own the property. Unfortunately, this was the first time he saw this in the comments, and they had not addressed that. He did not know what the owners would do. Mr. Annunziato suggested that they arrive at a conclusion between now and next Tuesday, October 15, and let his office know. If there is a problem, it can be addressed before the Council meeting. If it is impossible, and their lawyers and the City lawyers think it canno~ occur, maybe it cannot be addressed before the Council meeting. - 7 - MINUTES - PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA OCTOBER 8, 1985 If it is something that can happen, Mr. Annunziato said it should happen, because C°ngress'Avenuewill.berecons~cted in this area within a year._ Mr. Annunziato showed Mrs. Huckle that the additional 10 feet will be where the driveway intersects with Congress Avenue and said the westerly ten feet of it will be right-of-way for Congress Avenue. He explained that they have an easement right to the property, and the applicant was saying he did not have fee title but an easement right. If the applicant can work out the easement agreements with Lindsley Lumber between now and next Tuesday, October 15, they can dedicate the right-of-way. Mr. Arthur C. Caruana, 2400 S. W. 19th Avenue, Cedarwood Villas, stated he is a resident immediately adjacent to where the road will be built. The rear of his home and seven others face this. Mr. Caruana informed Chairman Ryder it is 40 feet away from his house.and is immediately on the lot line. Mr. Caruana was speaking for himself but told Mr. deLong he had conversations about this particular problem with the seven other homeowners. He wanted it to be made a matter of public record that the group, as a whole, .is very suspicious of this builder who started construction on the road before any permits were issued. The builder basically created a nuisance in the area with heavy machinery, dirt that was created and trees that were torn down. , Mr. Caruana was here to determine what the purpose of the road would be now and in the future and the construction sequence of the road. He understood a. six foot high masonry wall would be constructed. Mr. Caruana asked if the road would be used temporarily for construction purposes to bring construction material, trucks, etc. into the property. Chairman Ryder asked if you could clear a site without a per- mit as long as you do not fill it. Both Mr. Annunziato and Mr. Wheeler answered, "No." Mr. Whseler said the contractor had cleared it without approval, was ultimately red tagged, and contacted them to try and make it legal. Apparently, the contractor had assumed the access road had been approved previously. Mr. Annunziato said there is a real desire on the part of the neighbors to have the wall in place as a means to protect them before the road construction commences. Mr. Caruana concurred that this was one of their desires. Mr. Annunziato advised that it was in the purview of the Board to make that recommenda- tion to the City Council and said it would offer some protection to the property owners to the south. Mr. deLong could see the wisdom of doing that but said he certainly would not require that it be finished until they are through with the road construction. Mr. Annunziato agreed. - 8 - MINUTES - PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA OCTOBER 8, 1985 Mr. Caruana said they were interested in seeing that the road is not used for construction purposes. When they originally started clearing the site, trucks were going back and forth through the road. If the Board gives them permission to put the road through, Mr. Caruana said they will start using it immediately as an access to the construction site to bring equipment, trucks, and materials through there. He did not think they would have any argument about the road being used for the new building, parking purposes, etc. but d~d not want their site to face on the construction of the building. Mr. Wheeler informed the Members that they have started the footings for the wall on the east side of the property along the canal, so he assumed they would just keep going with the wall all the way to Congress. As everything would be coming from Woolbright now, Chairman Ryder though~ apparently, there would be no problem. Mr. Wheeler imagined they would come in off of Woolbright. He imagined the parking lot and road would be done at one time. Mr. Annunziato suggested that the applicant be required to use the Woolbright Road entrance for his construction equipment except in the instance of the construction of the road itself, which would have construction equipment on it. He thought the Board could also recommend that to the Council. Mr. Wandelt complained that heavy equipment is parked in front of the Sun Bank and sometimes interferes with the customers. Other than that, they are getting along fine and he said he understands. , Mr. Wheeler was worried about saying no construction traffic can use Congress Avenue and was not sure that some sub- contractor might have to come in that way. Mr. Caruana did not want to open the door to having construction traffic come through that road before it is finished for the purpose of putting up the building because everybody will try to use it. They have already experienced damaged floors and tile from throughvibrations there, in the houses as a result of heavy equipment going Mr. Caruana noted that the site plan sho~ed the wall would be located two feet inside of the applicant s wondered who would be responsible for maint~r° e Members ~t~He m, of the Board answered that the applicant would maintain it. Mr. Caruana wondered if that meant their maintenance would have to come on his side to cut the grass. Mr. Annunziato answered that they would come out of their side and have two feet to cut their grass on their property. Mr. Caruana asked if it would be possible for Cedarwood Villas to maintain it rather than having an outside party come in. Mr. Annunziato - 9 - MINUTES - PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA OCTOBER 8, 1985 advised that was something they would have to work out with the owner of the property, but the owner would probably love to have them maintain that two feet. Mr. deLong moved to approve the site plan modification, subject to staff comments~.and with the recommendations that the wall be in place prior to the road construction and that, when possible, construction equipment use Woolbright Road. Mr. Pagliarulo seconded the motion, and the motion carried 7-0. Several months ago, Mr. deLong was apprehensive about Boynton Beach becoming the "Wall City of Jerulsalem." He referred to all of the six foot walls going up and thought they should consider alternative methods like natural barriers for the aesthetic values. The only place where Mr. Annunziato knew the Code offered an alternative was in the C-1 cat~egory, which allows the substitution of a hedge for a wall. The Ordinance has been in effect since 1976 and was the desire of the City Council, although it may be something this Council may want to reconsider. Mr. Gregory asked what mechanism they could use to theget minutes." it to the City Council. Mr. Annunziato answered, "Through Chairman Ryder and Mr. Wandelt brought up the matter of natural barriers sometimes not being maintained. B. SUBDIVISIONS MASTER PLAN 2. Project Name: Catalina Club - Commercial Development Agent: Joe Torano, P.E. Owner: Walboyn, Inc. Location: West side of Congress Avenue, south of N. W. 22nd Avenue Description: Request for master plan approval for a commercial subdivision which includes a replat of the previously platted Phase I of Congress Lakes, to allow construction of a hotel and an office/ retail complex plus three '(3) out parcels Mr. Annunziato informed the Members that Staff recommended this be approved. Ira A. Martin, Project Engineer, R. Sheremeta Associates, Consulting Engineers, 101 S. E. 6th Avenue, Suite F, Delray Beach, Florida 33444, said Mr. Thomas McMurrian of Ocean Properties was to be here to represent Walboyn. Mr. Annunzia~o determined Mr. Martin was aware of the staff comments from the Engineering Department and called attention - 10 - MINUTES - PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA OCTOBER 8, 1985 to the third comment contained in the Memorandum from Tom Clark, City Engineer, dated September 30, 1985. The comment recommended only one connection to the private access road. Mr. Annunziato added that at the time, this was a matter of zoning. It was agreed uDon by the Council that there would be no more than five or eight connections, which was many more than what Mr. Clark was recommending. Mr. Annunziato did not know how Mr.. Clark's recommendation fitted into that scheme of things. Mr. Annunziato clarified for Mr. deLong that Mr. Clark was recommending that there be fewer connections than the applicant was requesting. At the time of zoning, Mr. Annunziato believed this was the subject of a variance, and he thought the applicant was given no more than eight connections, but it was substantially more than what Mr. Clark was recommending and more than the plan provided for. Given the fact that they had a Council policy in this matter, Mr. Annunziato was not sure What the Board could do with Mr. Clark's comment. Chairman Ryder recalled this was a matter of rezoning, and he recollected that the Planning and Zoning Board recommended denial of rezon±ng from residential to commercial. The Council subsequently approved it. Chairman Ryder still did not like it and thought it was a mistake. Because a Council policy was in place, Mr. Annunziato recommended that' the Board go with the Council policy unless told otherwise by the Council. He recommended that the Board approve it with the suggestion that the third comment of Mr. Clark's memo be deleted because it was not applicable in this instance. Mr. Annunziato was not downgrading the quality of Mr. Clark's comment because he thought Mr. Clark was right but, at this point, it was not an issue:. He informed Mr. deLong that the issue was that the number of connections to this accessway drive was determined by the Council at the time of zoning and it exceeded one. ' Mr. deLong pointed out that they have a major commercial project there with a convention center and a hotel, and he did not think they should "buck" the Council. His observation was contrary to Chairman Ryder's as he thought there was tremendous encourage- ment for residential in an area that was basically conducive for commercial development. Mr. Cannon informed Mr. Gregory that designated as commercial are about another four million square feet of retail space in the City and he believed about an equal amount of office space. Chairman Ryder's point was that whe~ you are considering rezoning residential to commercial, something is happening to the Comprehensive Land Use Plan, and he explained. - 11 - MINUTES - PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA OCTOBER 8, 1985 Mr. deLong arqued that this was the pattern they established on Congress Avenue, and the pattern has existed. It seemed to him the Council had made a commitment and he felt they should either make a commitment, stay with it, and solve the problem, or should not make a commitment to begin with. Mr. Gregory thought the area certainly needed what these people were ~lanning and thought the Council, in their wisdom, saw fit to allow more than one connection. Mr. Gregory moved that the master plan be approved, subject to staff comments, and with the third paragraph stricken from Mr. Clark's Memorandum of September 30, 1985. Mr. Pagliarulo seconded the motion, and the motion carried 6-1 with Chairman Ryder voting against the motion. B.' SUBDIVISIONS PRELIMINARY PLATS Project Name: Agent: Owner: Location: Description: Quail Lake West Jay G. Foy, P. E. Catania Development Corporation North of Golf Road, West of Congress Avenue Request for approval of construction plans and preliminary plat which provides for the construction of infrastructure improvements to serve fifty-eight (58) multi-family dwelling units (loop 1) and a private recreation area in connection with a previously approved Planned Unit Development (PUD). Applicant also requests approval for a replat of Phase I (relocation of drainage inlets) and Phase II (lowered road grades to accommo- date revised building type) Mr. Annunziato informed the Members that Mr. Foy was in his office yesterday (October 7, 1985) and had no problems with the staff commen~s. The Staff recommended approval, subject to staff comments. Mr. Winter moved to approve the preliminary plat, subject to staff comments. Mr. Wandelt seconded the motion and the motion carried 7-0. ' NEW BUSINESS A. PUBLIC HEARINGS 3. Project Name: Agent: J. C. Boynton Warehouses John Diehl, AIA - 12 - MINUTES - PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA OCTOBER 8, 1985 Owner: Location: Boynton Industrial Park Associates East side of West Industrial Avenue, north of Boynton Beach Boulevard Description: Request for relief from Section 5-141 (g) of Parking Lot Code The applicant was not present, and there were questions among the Members as to whether they could hold a public hear- ing without someone being present to represent the applicant. Mr. Wandelt asked if they could not go ahead and approve it, subject to staff comments. Mr. Annunziato thought they could. He knew the applicant was aware of the comments because he spoke to him about them on Friday, October 4, 1985, although he could not understand why he was not here tonight. It seemed to Chairman Ryder that they could do the internal treatment of the parking area internally. This discussion occurred at the Technical Review Board meeting, and Mr. Annunziato said it was his decision that the applicant could accomplish what the variance would provide on site by just having less building, but the Technical Review Board felt the circulation was enhanced with the three driveways. Since there was a problem, Chairman Ryder suggested this be thepostponed, staff comments. Mr. Winter asked why they could not go ahead with As it was a public hearing, Mr. Annunziato read the staff comments into the record and said the Technical Review Board recommended approval of the variance request, subject to the comments. Chairman Ryder asked if anyone wished to speak in favor or in opposition to the request, and there was no response. THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS CLOSED. Mr. Annunziato called attention to the site plan and told the Members they are long east/west oriented warehouses with doors on the north and south sides of each building. The distance between the street and the front of the buildings is the drainage easement. The drainage easement can be bridged for driveways, and the applicant desires to do this. Instead of having two driveways, which is the limit imposed by the park- ing regulations, the applicant is requesting three driveways, which would give some enhanced circulation to the center core. That and probablY the lack of traffic was probably enough for the TRB to recommend that it be approved They have 315 feet of frontage. - Chairman Ryder thought they could do without the center drive- way by internal movement. As they come in, they could provide for it. Mr. Annunziato asked if Chairman Ryder was suggesting (8) - 13 - MINUTES - PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA OCTOBER 8, 1985 that instead of having the westerly 30 or 35 feet of building, that they put a driveway there. Chairman Ryder was not suggesting anything, but it appeared to him that they ought to be able to manage with two driveways. Mr. Wandelt asked what would be involved if theyl moved the buildings. Chairman Ryder said they could do that or they could have the turning movements. If the Board desired not to approve the variance, Mr. AnnunZiato recommended that a north/south driveway be provided adjacent to the easterly side of the drainage easement to give circulation around all of the buildings and to connect all three drives. Mr. Cannon showed on, the overlay where the driveway would be. Chairman Ryder noted that they would have that access internally rather than having to use the street for that kind of movement. Mr. Gregory commented that it might not be cost feasible on the project, and the Members did not know what was involved. Considering where the site is located, Mrs. Huckle saw no problem with three drives. Chairman Ryder said if the Members wanted to give the applicant a chance to be heard, they cOuld still table the matter. Mr. Annunziato informed Mr. Wandelt that the distance of the drainage easement north and south is 315 feet. Mr. Wandelt meant the'~di~tance between the drives. Mr. Annunziato estimated it was about 200 feet, more or less. He told Mr. deLong he did not make that north/south road recommendation because there was no need for it in the recommendation to approve by the TRB. Mr. Pagliarulo moved to approve the parking lot variance, subject to staff recommendations. Mr. deLong seconded the motion~ ~ .... ~ Mr. Annunziato clarified that the motion was to approve the parking lot variance as requested, based on the. TRB recommendations. A vote was taken on the motion, and the motion carried 6-1. Chairman Ryder voted against the motion. SITE PLAN Project Name: Agent: Owner: J. C.
