CORRESPONDENCE n GEE & JENSON Engi neer s-Architects- Planners,lnc. November 21, 1991 Mr. Christopher cutro, A.I.C.P. Planning Director City of Boynton Beach P.o. Box 310 Boynton Beach, FL 33425-0310 Re: Shoppes of Boynton parking Lot variance Dear Chris: On May 21, 1991, the City commission of Boynton Beach approved a request for a variance for a driveway cut for the Shoppes of Boynton. This variance was for an interior access aisle, having direct access to a major egress driveway at less than the 100' minimum as required by the City of Boynton Beach Code. One of the conditions of this approval was for a site visit to be held after six months (during peak tourist season) to ascertain if the ,driveway variance is functioning or causing a back up onto Northwest 22nd Avenue. Our site visit on Tuesday November 19, 1991 between 5:00 and 5:30PM was during peak use. There was no indication of any backup. Traffic moved smoothly, even though the parking lot was extremely full from the Boynton Ale House patrons. I recommend that you notify the Manager and City commission that a site inspection was held and that it is the Engineering Depart- ments recommendation that the variance be made permanent as no traffic problems are apparent.

Boynton Beach Boulevard P.O. Box 310 Boynton Beach, FL 33425-0310 Re: Shoppes of Boynton Pedestrian crossings & Driveways Dear Vinnie: At the city commission meeting of April 16, 1991, the subject of modifying the existing parking lot standards to incorporate thermo-plastic pedestrian striping in lieu of continuous concrete sidewalks for ingress/egress driveway approaches was considered by the City commission. Engineering department Memorandum 91056 as well as a letter from the VDM Group requesting the modification and a draft of the modified parking lot specifications indicating how this information would be incorporated into the parking standards (should it be approved) was available for the city commission. By unanimous 5-0 vote this proposed amendment to the existing parking lot standards was denied. We must therefore continue to' enforce the existing parking lot specifications for continuous concrete sidewalks for ingress/egress driveway approaches. By copy of this letter I am requesting the city Manager notify the VDM Group or so indicate if he wishes the engineering department to correspond directly with VDM. If you have any questions regarding this matter, we would be pleased to review them with you at your convenience. Very truly yours, ~/~~~ W. Richard Staud~nger, P.E.
