has not yet been approved.
Mr. Aguila recalled that when the Pallo Tropical project first came to the City, they wanted
to install a very large round chicken on the side of the building as part of their logo. He
hopes they are not trying to put up that kind of sign this time. Mr. Haag believes the sign
only contains their name.
With regard to Clear Copy, Mr. Aguila recalled that the color of the building was to be more
in harmony with the surrounding buildings; however, the color seems more pink than the
surrounding structures. He questioned whether or not the building color changed, and
wondered why it changed.
Mr. Haag explained that there was a color chip included when the project went before the
City Commission. The Commission requested the color to be more orange. When it went
through the permitting process, staff worked with the applicant on color chips, and he
brought in a color which was more orange. Mr. Aguila does not like the color that is now
on the building.
Vice Chairman Golden inquired as to the construction next to Motorola. Ms. Heyden said
it is another addition which falls under the 5 percent threshold for minor site plan
modifications. It is an FPL substation.
Chairman Dube referred to the Piker Steel project which dates back to January. He
pointed out that this project will disappear from the next report; however, it is still not
approved. Mr. Haag explained that the report only shows the items for the quarter. He
agreed that the board will never see this project in the approved status because it will be
deleted from the report.
Chairman Dube also recalled the chain link fence which was approved to hold wood for
Bono's. He pointed out that Bono's is now gone from the center, and has been replaced
by "Big & Tall". He sees this as a place where the new tenants may begin to pile trash.
Ms. Heyden feels there may be something the City can do if "Big & Tall" submits any
changes.
Mr. Rosenstock expressed concem that in looking through the list, he noted that on minor
site plan modifications, some were approved the same day or within one or two days of
submittal. He asked for a clarification of what constitutes "minor".
Ms. Heyden explained that there is a list of criteria in the Site Plan Ordinance of the Land
Development Regulations. One of the criteria deals with the 5 percent additional square
footage. If the addition is less than 5 percent of the total existing square footage. the
submittal can be processed as a minor site plan modification.

For the benefit of the new members, Ms. Heyden explained that this quarterly report is
prepared to show the members the site plan waivers and minor site plan modifications that

Mr. Aguila questioned how Polio Tropical handled the sign. Mr. Haag advised that they
submitted a permit request for a freestanding sign. Polio Tropical is an Outparcel building
at the Shoppes of Boynton. Several years ago, a sign variance was approved to allow
additional signage on Congress Avenue for Cobb Theater. The sign was never installed,
and Polio Tropical is attempting to take advantage of the variance approval. Their request
