Re: Lawrence Grove P.U.D./Extension of Bedford Blvd.
Dear Mr. Rea:
As you know, one of the requirements of approval of the Lawrence
Grove P.U.D. was that the developer acquire a 628 foot segment of
property and construct on it a road to connect Bedford Blvd. with
Meadows Blvd. In this regard, I met with patricia Franklin,
Manager of the Right-of-Way Acquisition Department with Palm Beach
County Engineering Department, to discuss the possibility of their
helping out in this matter.
Ms. Franklin advised me that this would be possible and all that
she would need from the city is a letter indicating this is a
requirement of our approval. At that point, we would enter into
a Developers Agreement with Palm Beach County. The County would
then have an appraiser do an appraisal of the property and then
make an offer to the owner requesting a decision within thirty
(30) days - thereafter. If the owner fai 1 s to accept the offer,
then the'm~tter is sent to the Palm Beach County Attorney's Office
for the institution of condemnation proceedings.
I have enclosed herewith a copy of the form Developer's Agreement
which the County uses. As you can see, the agreement is very
comprehensive and requires the developer to advance to the County
the cash necessary for the acquisi tion of the right-of-way plus
twenty five percent (25%) of that total for staff charges and the
appraiser's fee. As a result, it would appear reasonable that the
City of Boynton Beach only require the developer to post a bond in
the amount of the actual costs of the road construction
improvements plus ten percent (10%). As I understand it, this
~~ECFr"'\,r'" .~~
""'-'..... ~ ~_.......
MAY ~5 198~
PLANhle~U lJ~[ I:
amount is already included in the overall performance bond
required by the city.
I would appreciate you or Mr. Annunciato forwarding a' letter to
Ms. Franklin indicating that the acquisition of the property is a
requirement of the city's approval so that we may proceed
accordingly.
If you have any questions or comments, please advise.

Re: Project: Citrus Glen/Lawrence Groves
Clarification of staff Comments
. .
Dear Mr. Annunziato:
In accordance of our meeting on June 26, held in preparation of the
publ ic hearing held before the City Commission on June 21, 1987, I
respectfully submit proposed language clarifying the comments issued
by Staf'f which have been imposed as conditions for any approval of the
applications pending on the projects referred to above.
With reference to the Lawrence Grove application, I wish to confirm
that modifications to the proposed site plan establish a three-foot
landscape buffer along the collector road where double-frontage lots
exist, and that this modification was found acceptable to the Planning
Department and otherwise adequately responded to Mr. Jaeger's comment
in his memorandum dated June 16, 1987.
Comments issued in furtherance of the Lawrence Grove application by
John A. Guidry, Director of Utilities, called for approval of the
project being conditioned upon the developer providing the funds to
pay all expenses associated with acquisition of a future right-of-way
between MeadowsT~act and Lawrence Groves. It also "recommended- that
construction of the project not commence until acquisition of the
right-of-way has been finalized.
During our meeting on June 26, I attempted to clarify the intent of
your Department and the developer with regard to such conditions, and
propose the following language incorporated into the staff's comments
for the purpose of clarification:
July 10, 1987
Page 2
"Approval should be conditioned upon developer providing
funding for the acquisition of right-of-way between the
"Meadows Tract" and "Lawrence Groves" by the City of Boynton
Beach. Developer may satisfy this condition of approval by
posting cash bond, letter of credit, or equivalent"in an
amount equal to funding for acquisition and miscellaneous
related costs. The amount of funds required shall be based
on the appraised value of property which is subject to the
right-of-way taking."
"Developer may commence construction of the project,
notwithstanding acquisition by the city of the right-Of-way
has not been finalized, providing the developer complete
utilities connections in aocordance with the present site
plan and engineering plans submitted in furtherance of his
original application. Developer shall be obligated to
reconnect utility hook-ups to water lines established 'along
the subject right-Of-way, upon notice by the City within
three (3) years from the date of the City's approval of
developer's application. The developer shall be entitled to
credits for the costs relative to acquisition and installation
of water lines to be constructed in such right-of-way.-
The final comment pertains to Staff's memo indicating that tree
management plans (for both projects) have not been submitted. I wish
to confirm that such plans have been revised and resubmitted (prior to
the Planning Commission hearing) in response to Mr. Hallahan's comments.
I resp~ctfully request that, upon your review of the proposed
modifications set forth above, you contact the undersigned to provide
your comments. and permit their finalization and incorporation into
Staff comments for further action.
I thank you for your cooperation.
Very truly yours,

,John A. Guidry, Director of Utiliti~
June 4, 1987
FrOM:
Date:
Subject:
PreliMinary Master Plan (Revised) - Lawrence Groves
The subject plan indicates two interconnections with the existing 16"
water Main along Lawrence Road. In that the 16" water Main is currently
fed only frOM the south, the dual interconnect serves only to enhance
reliability of water supply in the event of an internal failure within
the subdivision. Any probleMs with the 16" water Main between the
future ground storage tank in Miner Road and this site would leave this
entire subdivision, plus a few others, without dOMestic water or fire
protection.
A SiMple reMedy to this dileMMa would be to interconnect the Lawrence
Groves water systeM with the existing Meadows systeM approxiMately 600'
to the east. This action would effect an additional interconnect with
the 16" water Main along Congress Avenue and greatly enhance reliability
to Lawrence Groves and all other custOMers along Lawrence Road and north
of, Miner Road.
We r'ealiz~ that the City May have to condeMn the future right-of-way
be'!:i.leen the MeadolJ5 tract and Lawrence Groves 50 as to facilitate said
int1rco~n~ct and also enhance access by fire and police. Cognizant of
this, we reCOMMend that approval of this project be conditional upon the
developer providing the funds to pay all expense associated with
acquisition of said right-of-way. We also reCOMMend that construction
of the project not COMMence until acquisition of the right-of-way has
been finalized in order to insure full protection to the future
residents of this subdivision.

I called on 4-14-88 and
they never returned my call.
Additionally, I spoke to Cindy Lamb at the Citrus Commission 832-0463
She advised that they require 3 negative inspections at 30 day intervals
as well as a limited permit prior to movement of any trees. This may be the
reason that some of the individuals contacted balk at taking these trees.
If you have any questions, please feel free to call.

Re: Applicant:
Dear Mr. Gordon:
I am in receipt of your letter dated August 6, 1987, related
to the 'above project. In order for your client to comply with
the conditions to the approval received from the City Commission,
it is necessary that your client fund this City's eminent domain
action for the road right-of-way extension between the Meadows
Tract and the entranceway of the proposed subdivision (Lawrence
Groves) .
Because of this projects inter-relationship with the
Comprehensive Plan Amendment process, the City will not take
official action with regard to the annexation until the
Department of Community Affairs signs off on the amendments to
our Comprehensive Plan. We anticipate that this should be
sometime in late October or early November. At that time this
Ci ty will require that your client deposit an amount of money
sufficient to cover the cost associated with legal fees for the
condemnation as well as funds sufficient to cover the purchase
price of the road right-of-way. Those sums which are not
expended in this process would be returned to your client once
the condemnation process is completed in its entirety.
I would suggest that sometime in the near future yourself,
Carmen Annunziato and I get together for a meeting to reach
"

agreement as to the amount and time for deposit of the funds
necessary for this transaction.

Dear Mr. Rea:
Michael D. Gordon, Agent for GNM Associates
Boynton Grove (Lawrence Grove)
Subsequent to the City Commissioner's approval of the Application
referenced above, a meeting was held between Alan Miller (a principal
of the contract vendee) and Carmen Annunziato in order to review the
specifics of conditions for such approval.
One of the requirements called for the funding of all costs related to
the purchase of property to be dedicated for a road right-of-way
extending between the Meadows Tract and the entranceway of my client's
proposed subdivision (Lawrence' Grove), and joining with its collector
road. My client assured Carmen that sincere attempts have been made
to purchase the subject parcel, but the owner expressed no desire in
pursuing such a sale. The Planning Director has requested that I
formally notify you of the facts and circumstances surrounding this
matter and request that the City assist my client in taking such
action as you deem necessary in furthering the City's need fOr obtaining
the subject right-of-way extension.
I would request that, upon your receipt of this correspondence, you
contact Mr. Annunziato to confirm my understanding of the City's
position and to advise me of what steps to take in behalf of my client
to further comply with the conditions to the approval received from
the City Commission.
I thank you for your cooperation.
Very truly yours,
Michael D.

REVIEW OF TRAFFIC IMPACT ANALYSES
Dear Mr. Annunziato:
Palm Beach County Traffic Division staff has reviewed traffic impact
analyses which you sent to us for the subject developments. The following
comments are submitted for your consideration:
1) Dedication of right-of-way should be required in accordance with the
County's Thoroughfare Right-of-Way Protection Map. Lawrence Road
requires an 80' right-of-way and Miner Road a 108' right-of-way.
2) Turn lanes on the internal collecter roadways and all main development
accesses should be required in accordance with the traffic studies you
sent us.
3) Since Miner Road is required for site access and traffic distribution,
the segment of Miner Road adjacent to the site should be constructed
by the developer as a two lane cross section in accordance with. County
standards and over an alignment that will connect with the segment
committed to the east.
4) Payment of traffic impact fees should be required in accordance with
Palm Beach County Ordinance #85-10.
The opportunity to review these land development traffic impact analyses is
appreciated. Please do not hesitate to contact me or Mr. Allan Ennis of my
staff if you have any questions.
Sincerely,
OffI~ O~ THE COUNTY ENGINEER

Re: Hovnanian Companies Obligation to Construct Bedford Blvd.
Your Telephone Inquiry of November 17, 1993
Status Update
Dear Mr. Lopez:
Thank you for the time you afforded me during our most recent
telephone conversation regarding the above referenced subject
matter.
In response to your initial inquiry regarding the developer's
obligation to construct Bedford Blvd., please be advised that
both the City Commission and the City's Planning & Development
Board, during fiscal year 1989/90 and 1992/93, released the Developer
from the obligation to construct a roadway known as Bedford Blvd.,
comprised of 628.69 linear feet of roadway commencing at the eastern-
most properly line of Lawrence Grove, terminating at an existing
roadway situated within The Meadows 300. Additionally, the City
permitted the developer to reduce this area to a 12' utility easement.
For your review and consideration, please find copies of applicable
minutes from the Planning & Zoning Board, dated 2/13/90 & 11/10/92,
as well as minutes of the City Commission meetings for 2/6/90 &
10/20/92, highlighted for ease of your review.
Should you require any additional information or assistance, please
feel free to contact me at (407) 375-6282.
Very truly yours,
