RE: Security Gates and Emergency Access
To Whom It May Concern:
Boynton Beach Fire Rescue continues to maintain the position that security gates are
potentially detrimental to fire and rescue operations. The proliferation of security gated
communities has resulted in many problems for responding emergency apparatus trying to gain
entry.
The minimum performance for all security gates shall be as follows:
1, All security/entrance gates must have an electronic key number pad,
2. The keypad will allow entrance by the simple act of pushing four (4) or five (5) buttons,
3, All gates must have a security entry code approved in advance by the Fire Marshal.
4. Gates may be operable by telephone from our dispatch office. A phone call from our
dispatchers will open the gate and a second call will be required to close the gate.
5. In case of power failure, the gate shall open automatically and remain open,
6. An exception will be where a 24-hour security guard is stationed at the gate.
7. A back-up device such as an authorized security box or key switch is required to operate the
gate in the event the number pad entry does not work,
8. A key box shall be installed for such areas or buildings when the Fire Marshal determines
that access is necessary for all life-saving or fire-fighting purposes: The type and location of
the key box shall be approved by the Fire Marshal and shall contain:
· Keys to locked points of egress, whether in common areas or on the interior or exterior
of such buildings;
· Keys to locked mechanical equipment rooms;
· Keys to locked electrical rooms;
· Keys to elevator controls.
9. No other code numbers, operating methods, or key systems will be kept on file by the Fire
Rescue Department.
10. In the event that our units are unable to gain rapid entry with the above methods, it will
require the use of rapid forcible entry methods to gain entry. The City of Boynton Beach
and/or the Fire Rescue Department shall not be responsible for, or incur any costs as a
result of gaining access to a specific area.
11. Information on where authorized key security boxes can be purchased is available from
Boynton Beach Fire Rescue, Fire and Life Safety Division by calling (561) 742-6600 during
normal business hours.
Failure to comply will result in the violation of Boynton Beach Code of Ordinances Section 9-3F
and Section 9-15. The liability of delayed Fire Rescue response to an emergency in your
community should be a serious concern.

Request for site plan approval to
construct a 28,086 sq. ft. church on
4.77 acres.
Description:
..-
Mr. Golden explained the height of the proposed church
exceeds the 25' height allowed in the R-IA 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 #1 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 parking is provided in the
rear. Color elevations have not been received and materials
and colors are not indicated on the blueprint drawings.
The TRB recommends approval, subject to the following staff
comments:

(From revised memorandum dated November 14, 1989 - Comment

include light poles, trees, and catch basins. The plans
should be corrected, where necessary, to eliminate these
conflicts. II
~
Forester/Horticulturist
"1. The hedge plants along Seacrest Blvd. must be 36" in
height at time of planting.
2. The position of some of the trees in the landscape
islands are in conflict with proposed light poles."
David Banks, 8115 Ambach Way, Hypoluxo and Malek Abdallah of
Malek & Associates, 100 E. Linton Blvd., Delray Beach, were
both present at the meeting. Mr. Abdallah indicated they
were in agreement with staff comments.

agreeable.
