There were also a number of shrubs within the proposed worI, area which appeared to be, 1n general j 1.n a stressed condition.

I am pleased to advise you that our client has authorized us to modify our plans to provide the proposed landscape improvements listed above IN ADDITION TO the increased landscape improvements summarized below: 1. Relocate 8 Sabal Palm trees within the limits of the proposed work area: the relocated trees shall be placed in groupings of four trees at the extreme north and south ends of the project.

Relocate any existing/viable shrubs within the work area to the landscape area along the south Parcel 3-F (southern most development area at Commerce Center). proposed side of Boynton For your information and convenience we have enclosed line plans which we have revised to reflect the landscaping improvements described above. four blue additional With the proposed changes we will now be providing for a total of 40 trees Hnd a continuous Cocoplum hedge along the eastern boundary of the site as compared to 17 trees and no hedges as shown on the original City approved plans for Boynton Commerce Center.

Based upon a field condition which we discovered last week (water meter vault within the limits of the propose parking lot improvements) we have adjusted parking along the extreme south side of the site. Originally we had proposed 10 spaces in a row but have now modified our plans to provide for 6 and 4 spaces separated by a 15' island for the existing water meter vault. Please note that the changes which we have made to the plan do not increase the overall number of parking spaces, do nol create any adverse traffic, drainage, or environmental impacts, and do not otherwise alter the objective or intent of the proposed parking lot improvements. For your information and convenience we have also enclosed two copies of a revised plan reflectIng the changes in the parking lot configuration described above. We trust that the information included in this letter and on the enclosed plans will allow you and the City Planning Department to offer full support of our proposals at the PDB meeting. However, if you have any questions or concerns, or require any additional changes to our plans or information for your records please do not hesitate to call. Thank you again for your continuing interest and cooperation 1n this project. We look forward to working with you and the City of Boynton Beach in implementing this project at the earliest possible date.
