City Planner's Memorandum of 9/7/79
Motorola
Please take steps to respond to the request concerning the flow chart at
least by the end of the week of September 10, 1979.
It is important that we have a clear understanding ourselves of the steps
involved for this complicated DRI process and that we let the potential
applicant and other review agencies know how we see that the City fits
into the total review process.
Once this has been established for Motorola, I would hope that we could
establish it as a guide that we can give other developers, small or large,
to assist them in understanding the steps in our review process. I think
such a flow chart or picture would be of great assistance to both the
current developers in the City and new developers.

Sir:
I have reviewed the abo~mentioned flow chart and conclude that our
participation in the planning as outlined in the chart will be only
that of having a rep at the TRB meetings to provide for normal
service in such matters. There are no City Ordinances or State Stat-
utes that apply to our function at these meetings. To the best of
my knowledge we can advise when asked.
The dates of the meetings that should be attended are October 10th,
31st and November 28th.

OFF-SITE SEWER LINES
page 3
Under the present contracts for lift stations
and force mains presently being installed, there
is a contingency fund in the amount of $200,000.
Inarder to meet a deadline for Motorola to have
a sewage force main available along Congress Ave.,
it is possible, and probable if Council wishes to
pursue this, to get a GRANT INCREASE OFFER for
enough money to extend the 16" sewer line to a
point on Congress Avenue where that portion of it
could serve Motorola.
The other alternative is to go for the entire pres-
sure lines and pumping stations 316 and 319 and se-
cure a new grant when funds become available for
EPA to distribute sometime between Oct. 1, 1979
and June 15, 1980.
The following schedule is based on my assumption
that the City would want to secure a grant in-
crease offer to get sewer pressure lines up to
Motorola in time to meet their schedule.
Sept. 18, 1979
Council Meeting
1. Council authorizes engineer to prepare an applica-
tion for a grant increase offer for submission to
EPA-DER at the earliest possible moment, possibly
as early as Sept. 28, 1979, if the engineers can
prepare the necessary documentation in that short
time.
2. Engineering Department and City Attorney directed
to work in coordination with the engineers and
utility Department to acquire two (2) pump station
sites and easement and/or ROW permits for pressure
lines for the two pumping stations.
Sept. 28, 1979

and DER, so that the City is eligible for the
necessary grant offer starting Oct. I, 1979.

(1) INTENT AND PURPOSE
A Planned Industrial Development District (PID) is established.
The purpose of this district is to provide a zoning classification for
light industrial development that will better satisfy current demands
for light industrial zoned lands by encouraging development which will
reflect changes in the technology of land development and relate the
development of land to the specific site and to conserve natural
amenities.
Regulations for the PID are intended to accomplish a more desirab]
environment for industrial development in relation to existing and/or
future city development, permit economies in providing public services,
allow for economies of scale in industrial development, and to promote
the public health, safety, convenience, welfare and good government of
the City of Boynton Beach.
~
(2) DEFINITION
A "planned industrial development"

States, whereby the state wiII contribute toward the
cost of B program of acquisition of land and water
areas and related rights and interests within the
area proposed as the Federal Big Cypress National
Preserve, Florida. It is the intent of the Legislature
that the Governor and the cabinet begin immediate-
ly an acquisition program within the area proposed
as the Federal Big Cypress National Preserve, Flori-
da, on behalf of the state pending action by the Gov-
ernment of the United States in the Big Cypress
Area,
(b) The Governor and cabinet shall set aside from
the proceeds of the full faith and credit bonds au-
thorized by the Land Conservation Act of 1972, or
from other funds authorized, appropriated, or allo-
cated for the acquisition of environmentally endan-
gered lands, or from both sources, $40 million for
acquisition of the area proposed as the Federal Big
Cypress National Preserve, Florida, or portions
thereof.
(c) The Governor and cabinet are empowered to
acquire land and water areas within the Federal Big
Cypress National Preserve, Florida, created by Pub-
lic Law 93-440, in order to conserve and protect the
natural resources and scenic beauty therein and to
donate and convey title in land and water areas so
acquired or currently owned by the state to the Gov-
ernment of the United States or its agency upon the
expenditure by the United States of an amount of
federal funds at least equal to the acquisition cost of
the land and water areas donated by the state. The
intent of this condition for the donation ofland and
water areas by the state is to insure that the invest-
ment of federal funds in the acquisition of land and
water areas for the Big Cypress National Preserve
will be not less than the investment of state funds in
the land and water areas so donated. In making such
acquisitions, the Governor and cabinet shall give pri-
ority to those land and water areas within the area
proposed as the Federal Big Cypress National Pre-
serve, Florida, which are essential to the integrity of
the environment, the destruction of which would
cause irreparable damage to the Everglades Nation-
al Park, the estuarine fisheries of South Florida, or
the underlying freshwater aquifer.
(6) FUNCTION OF WATER MANAGEMENT
DISTRICT.-It is the finding of the Legislature that
the Big Cypress Area, as a water storage and re-
charge area, is an integral part of the water re,
sources of any water management district of which
the Big Cypress Area is or may be a part. It is the
legislative intent that there be close cooperation and
coordination of efforts between the water manage-
ment district and the Department of Natural Re-
sources in carrying out the intent and purposes of
this section. The Governor and cabinet as head of the
Department of Natural Resources are authorized to
delegate to the water management district, or to a
board therein, any power authorized in this section
to be exercised by the department, and the district or
basin is authorized to accept the powers delegated to
it and shall have the power and duty to carry out the
intent and purposes of this section to the fullest ex-
tent possible within its capabilities and resources.
(7) EMINENT DOMAIN WITHIN BIG CY-
PRESS AREA,-The Governor and cabinet as the
head of the Department of Natural Resources a
empowered and authorized to acquire by the eXE
ciBe of the power of eminent domain any land
water areas and related resources and property, ar
any and all rights, title and interest in such land I
water areas and related resources and other prope
ty, lying within the boundaries of the Big Cypre
Area, The Legislature finds that the exercise of tl
power of eminent domain within the Big Cyprel
Area to accomplish the purposes of this section
necessary and for a public purpose. '
(8) INDIAN RIGHTS.-Notwithstanding an
provision of this section to the contrary, members (
the Miccosukee Tribe ofIndians of Florida and men
bers of the Seminole Tribe of Florida may continu
their usual and customary use and occupancv 0
lands and waters within the Big Cypress Area, in
eluding hunting, fishing, and trapping on a subsist
ence basis and traditional tribal ceremonials. N'oth
ing in this section shall be construed to deny Or irn
p~r, or authorize the denial or impairment, of an)

sion regulations for the area in which the develop-
ment is proposed and, after 90 days have passed, no
zoning or subdivision regulations have been adopted
or designation of area of critical state concern issued.
(6) If the development of regional impact is to be
located within the jurisdiction ofa local government
that has adopted a zoning ordinance, the developer
shall file an application for development approval
with the appropriate local government having juris-

quirements imposed by the Department of Environ-
mental Regulation, the Department of Natural Re-
sources, or any water management district created
by s. 373.069, or any l[of) their successor agencies, or
any appropriate federal regulatory agency.
(i) Unless the presumptions set forth in para-
graph (h) are rebutted by clear and comtincing evi-
dence offered by the moving party, the development
shall not be subject to further development of region-
al impact review pursuant to this section, The appro-
priate local government shall afford a reasonable
opportunity for a developer or other substantially
affected party to present evidence to support or re-
but such presumptions,
(8) Within 50 days after receipt of the notice re-
quired in paragraph (7)(d), the regional plan .
agency, if one has been designated for the area~
eluding the local government, shall prepare and sub
mit to the local government a report and recommen
dations on the regional impact of the proposed devel
opment. The regional planning agency shall affon
the developer or any substantially affected partl
reasonable opportunity to present evidence to th;
agency head relating to the proposed regional agen
cy report and recommendations. In preparing its re
port and recommendations, the regional pl~
agency shall consider whether, and the extent t.c
which:
