the rear when they leave and added there are posters which
they can place in their condominium clubhouses.
Ms. Hayes gave a slide presentation illustrating some energy
options and resources available. She explained the costs and
facilities shown in New Mexico, Arizona, Utah and Colorado and
told about the natural resources available in these areas.
She then showed slides of Davis, California, and explained how
this city was striving to save energy.
Mr. Grabeel introduced Mr. Bill Wohlleb of the Chamber of
Commerce Industrial Development Committee. He explained how
the Chamber was trying to accomplish their goals in attract-
ing clean light industry to locate in Boynton Beach.
MINUTES - PLANNING & ZONING BOARD
NOVEMBER 27, 1979
Mr. Wohlleb then introduced Mr. John Howell and he referred to
the population growth and how employment is needed for a large
percentage of the population to survive. He told about indus-
tries we can live with here and now and explained how it was
important to attract a cross section of different types of in-
dustries.
Mr. Dick Klinger, Chairman of the Industrial Development Com-
mittee, explained the three primary benefits of industry:
provides new and challenging jobs for the local residents and
youth, diversification of the economic base, and additional tax
revenues to the City. Mr. Howell further explained how with
having job opportunities provided in the community, it improves
the quality of life.
Mr. Grabeel thanked the speakers for their presentations and
announced at the December 11 meeting, the City Planner will
give a presentation on the development of regional impact.

Mr. Annunziato referred to the Board having previously recom-
mended approval of the site plans for this development and
advised this covers the technical aspects of filing the sub-
division plat and associated technical plans. The site plan
has been super-imposed overfue proposed plat. He explained
the services for sewer, water, utilities and roads.
Mr. Annunziato referred to the staff comments and read the
Fire Marshal's note that fire hydrant installation shall con-
form with Subdivision Regulations #77-36. Data was provided
concerning the water table and soil conditions. He has
written to Mr.Johnson of School Plant Planning regarding the
impact of this development on the school system, but has not
received a reply. The staff comment is this pre-application
be approved subject to staff comments and providing an ease-
ment for a road on the west side of the development which is
not on the site. The Recreation Director noted the parks and
recreation shall be according to the Subdivision Regulation.
The physical submission is the same for the pre-application and
the master plan, but should be reviewed individually by the
Board with separate recommendations.

Mr. Tim Greene came before the Board to answer questions. Mr.
Annunziato asked in what form the easement would be dedicated
and Mr. Greene replied he was under the impression it would be
submitted with the plat and would be in the same form as the
road easements.
Mr. Hester moved to accept the subdivision regulation pre-appli-
cation for The 1700 Development Corp. subject to staff comments
and the easement be provided. Mrs. Bond seconded the motion.
No discussion. Motion carried 6-0.

Mr. Annunziato clarified this application was actually submitted
as a master plan which exceeds the requirements of the pre-appli-
cation but the Subdivision Regulations require the pre-applica-
tion step. Most of the physical aspects of the site plan have
been worked out and now the technical aspects are being worked
out. The master plan has two similar comments: the need for
fire hydrants and the recreation dedication to be per the ordi-
nance. The staff recommendation is to approve subject to staff
comments.
Mr. Ryder moved to approve this master plan for The 1700 Develop-
ment Corporation, which encompasses 66 condominium units, subject
to staff comments, called Via Lago. Mrs. Bond seconded the
motion. No discussion. Motion carried 6-0.
Mr. Annunziato suggested that possibly some consideration be
given in the future that if a PUD or site plan has been approved,
the applicant can commence at the master plan stage. Mr.
Ryder referred to these last two approvals not being forwarded
to the City Council and Mr. Annunziato agreed and stated it
would not be introduced to the Council again until the prelimi-
nary plat level. He explained how our procedure was actually
a duplication with requiring the pre-application and master
plan when the site plan covers most of the information.

MINUTES - PLANNING & ZONING BOARD
NOVEMBER 27, 1979
Mr. Annunziato referred to the staff having reviewed this appli-
cation and stated he also reviewed the record concerning the
stipulations imposed on the property at the time of rezoning.
Several memos were submitted which cover the technical aspects
of this plan prior to filing of the final plat. The master
plan was approved with the recommendation of two additional
fire hydrants and these are not shown, so the recommendation
is repeated. The City Engineer submitted a two page memo
covering corrections to the plat and development plans. These
deal with technical aspects which should have been provided on
the plat. He has provided a copy of this memo to the developer
and does not anticipate any problem.
Mr. Annunziato then read his attached memo dated November 19
addressed to Mr. Clark and stated it deals with some of the
rezoning requirements and language aspects of the plat itself.
He then read the memo from the Recreation & Park Director
recommending the developer submit an existing and proposed
landscaping plan for all of Tract A prior to construction of
any improvements. He added this tract should remain in a
natural and greenbelt state. The recommendation is to approve
subject to staff comments.
Mr. Bob Hamilton came before the Board. Chairman Thompson
asked if he was familiar with all the recommendations made by
Mr. Annunziato and did he receive copies of the memos and Mr.
Hamilton replied affirmatively. He added that some parts are
not totally clarified, but he has discussed this with Mr.
Annunziato.
Mr. Hamilton referred to the greenbelt area and stated his
interpretation of natural state does not mean a sprinkler
system and the planting of additional landscape materials.
He does not intend to encumber this project with sprinkler
systems and sod in an area interpretted as natural state.
Mr. Ryder asked if Mr. Frederick was in agreement with this
and Mr. Annunziato replied this was addressed by the staff
and it must be maintained in its natural state or better.
It was specified in the rezoning approval that Tract A is to
remain in its natural state and be utilized for drainage.
They are concerned about the physical form of the drainage
facility and the impact it will have on the remainder of the
landscaping in Tract A. Possibly additional materials may
have to be planted to provide the landscape barrier to protect
the residential areas to the west. Mr. Hamilton stated this
is not clear to him at this time; therefore, before any final
approval by the Council, he would like it to go on record the
exact obligation he has for that area. Natural state means
not to touch it at all, but that doesn't seem to be the inter-
pretation of the staff. He wants the material and his respon-
sibility defined.

MINUTES - PLANNING & ZONING BOARD
NOVEMBER 27, 1979
Mr. Ryder asked if there would be any facilities necessary on
this land and Mr. Annunziato replied there will be in the
future. He continued that if wells are drilled, the City will
be required to improve the land. The staff did discuss differ-
ent responsibilities. He clarified the developer is totally
responsible for the west 40' of Tract A which is the greenbelt
area and the remainder will be the responsibility of the City
staff because there will be drainage facilities located on it.
The west 40' will have to be improved in order to complete the
essence of the landscaped buffer which was alluded to at the
time of rezoning. The staff will be able to make an evaluation
of the effectiveness of the landscape buffer on the west side
of the property after the drainage facilities are constructed.
Mr. Hamilton stated he understands what is trying to be accom-
plished regarding the buffer to the residential area and he
approves of it. However, he does not want to encumber this
development with any type of landscaping that requires habitual
maintenance. He will recreate the buffer of anything they
take down to bring back the intent of buffering the residential
zone with natural vegetation to live in a natural manner. Mr.
Annunziato replied that he believes this is consistent with the
requirements.
Mr. Ryder asked if the survey indicates the location of the
major vegetation and Mr. Hamilton informed him this will be
shown in the next stage. He stressed further his desire to
have natural vegetation on the site.
Mr. Annunziato stated the intent when approved was there would
be no visual openings in the forested buffer. Reforestation
which completes the physical buffer would be satisfactory.
Mr. Hamilton agreed that a reforestation program would be
fine.
Mr. Hamilton referred to wells being drilled on this property
and explained when the City drills these wells, obviously they
will create a wound in the greenbelt areas and when this is
done, the City would be responsible for rehabilitation in that
area on a landscape basis. There has to be protection of wells
with fences, etc. and he would expect that would be treated
with a landscape program. He wants this done with natural
material which does not require constant watering and will
grow normally and make the well areas conducive of the landscape
area. He does not think the number will be extensive, but
insists when the wells are drilled, the City landscape as they
go along. He thinks the City should give him a landscape plan
as to how those areas will look without regard to economics
but aesthetics using natural vegetation.

Mr. Annunziato stated this was commented on at the time of
master plan approval and it is the City's policy when they con-
struct utilities to restore equal or better. He does not anti-
cipate any problems. It is the City's responsibility to make
the restoration.
Mr. Hamilton referred to the drilling of these wells taking
place years in the future and stated he will have to insist
on some type of letter being devised so he can have something
to submit to the owners. Mr. Annunziato stated that he knew
of no such instrument and suggested that Mr. Hamilton discuss
this with the City Council. Mr. Hamilton insisted the City
should agree to this in writing and asked if they did not,
does he have the prerogative to decline? Mr. Annunziato in-
formed him the applicant can always withdraw the application.
He added that with respect to reforestation, this only applies
to the west 40'.
Mr. Hamilton requested that the Board make a recommendation
to cover his request to the City Council and Mr. Annunziato
replied that he has some reservations about the Board making
such a recommendation because he would rather confer with the
Utility Director and City Manager and let them comment. The
City policy is anyone affected by a City function will be
restored equal or better. Mr. Hester added that if we make a
recommendation to the City Council, they do not have to accept
it and when the City comes into any area, it is their responsi-
bility to restore it to the original condition.
Mr. Hamilton referred to having to meet obligations for the
City and stated he thinks the City has the same legal obliga-
tion to him. There is no reason the City should~ on his pro-
perty and do anything without being required to have a plan,
the same as he was required to do. He referred to City employ-
ees and officials changing through the years and stated he
must have this assurance in writing for the owners. Mr.
Ryder clarified that this can only be resolved by the City
Council.
Mr. Annunziato clarified that the staff recommendation is
this preliminary plat be approved subject to staff comments.
Mr. DiSalle made a motion that the preliminary plat for Boynton
Central Park P.I.D. be approved subject to staff comments.
Mr. Hester seconded the motion. No discussion. Motion
carried 6-0.

Mr. Annunziato referred to the preliminary plat being approved
for replat of Housing Tract M and explained that before it was
forwarded to the City Council, the plat was withdrawn by the
applicant. The applicant decided they needed more room for
pools, patios, etc. and the solution was to expand that Tract M
by including some portions of Tract 14. He explained there were
some easement problems, but we are now satisfied with the ease-
ments for utilities and roadways. The preliminary plat has been
reviewed by the staff and no comments are forthcoming. The
recommendation is the replat of Tract 14 and Housing Tract M
be approved as submitted.
Mr. Johnson questioned the reason for enlarging this and the
representative explained the housing was re-arranged to have
more room for pools and patios in the rear of the houses.
Mr. Ryder moved to recommend approval of the preliminary ~lat
of Hunter's Run Golf & Racquet Club for replatting portions of

Lawson Industrial Park, Plat No. 1
(Mr. Malavasi, Agent)
S. W. 30th Avenue between South Technical
Education Center and Congress Avenue
Industrial Subdivision
Mr. Annunziato referred to the pre-application and master plan
being submitted for this in late spring and advised this is the
first preliminary plat involving five industrial lots. These
lots are to be served with City sewer and water and the means of
access is S. W. 30th Avenue. He added the drainage will be on-
site. He told about the traffic impact being considered and
stated the major point of interest to the staff was in what
form S. W. 30th Avenue would be at the time this preliminary
plat would be constructed and this was discussed at a meeting
this morning and the recommendation is that the developer will
complete S. W. 30th Avenue to a four lane section from Congress
Avenue easterly to the first intersecting road right-of-way
which intersects from the north. This will be a four lane
divided highway.

MINUTES - PLANNING & ZONING BOARD
NOVEMBER 27, 1979
Mr. Annunziato referred to Mr. Clark's memo and stated this
involves approximately two pages of corrections to the develop-
ment plans which are technical in nature. Mr. Cessna has noted
it is subject to running the gravity sewer across the canal and
stubbing north and south for future construction on Congress
Avenue. He explained this recommendation for future sewer con-
struction. The Police Department has noted a 50' radius at
State Road 7 must be provided. He has commented that it must
comply with the master plan requirements. He also recommended
that an additional 7' of right-of-way for Congress Avenue be
dedicated and he thinks they are preparing the deeds now.
This will coordinate with construction of Congress Avenue into
a four lane roadway. He then read the recommendations from the
Recreation & Park Director: recommend substituting an 8'
bike path for sidewalk (if required) on the north side of S.W.
30th Avenue and recommend developer submit a landscaping plan
for the road median. He has discussed this with Mr. Malavasi
and he feels it might not be possible to construct an 8' bike
path within the roadway owing to the location of the south two
lanes and the requirement for a median. The overall staff recom-
mendation is this preliminary plat for Lawson Industrial Park,
Plat No.1, be approved subject to staff comments.
Chairman Thompson questioned how far east the four way roadway
would be developed and Mr. Annunziato informed him it will ex-
tend easterly to the first intersecting roadway which intersects
from the north. Mr. Johnson questioned why this shouldn't be
developed the entire distance of S. W. 30th Avenue and Mr.
Annunziato replied that it was addressed owing to the traffic
counts; however, the traffic impact analysis which was submitted
did not conclusively address the impact of all the school traf-
fic. The staff recommendation was based on what was applicable
to the plat based on what we have now, but the Board can make
an appropriate recommendation.
Mr. Malavasi carne before the Board and explained the widening
was based on the traffic count and there was just not enough
to warrant it. Mr. Johnson asked why it would be four laned only
to the first intersection and Mr. Malavasi replied that a
stacking lane was needed at the intersection.
Mr. Johnson referred to the types of buildings to be located
in this development and Mr. Malavasi informed him the busi-
nesses would be light manufacturing and warehousing. Mr.
Johnson referred to the truck traffic generated by such com-
panies and stated he feels it should be four laned to the end
of the property considering this merging with the traffic from
the school. Mr. Malavasi stated this was not justified by the
numbers and Mr. Johnson replied that he is talking about the
safety factor.
-8-
MINUTES - PLANNING & ZONING BOARD
NOVEMBER 27, 1979
Mr. Malavasi clarified that as a compromise on the first plat,
he has agreed to four lane to the intersection and when the
next plat is submitted, he may extend the four lanes. Mr.
Johnson informed him that his theory would be to four lane it
all at this time. Mr. Malavasi stated the impact now for four
lots does not warrant four lanes. Mr. DiSalle agreed that he
does not think the traffic generated at this time will require
the additional four laning. Discussion ensued regarding the
effect on the traffic merging into two lanes.
Chairman Thompson asked if a traffic study had been made on the
park area being developed to the east and Mr. Annunziato replied
negatively. Mr. Malavasi clarified that the traffic impact
analysis submitted was based on the traffic this development
would be creating. Discussion ensued further whether the four
laning should be required at this time.
Mr. Malavasi stated that only a small percentage of traffic
will be generated from these warehouses and he does not think
this is a fair request. Chairman Thompson questioned who would
make the determination of when this will be four laned and Mr.
Malavasi replied that when the next plat is submitted, his
client will go ahead and complete the four laning of the road.
Mr. Malavasi again referred to the traffic count and where it
was being generated from and Mr. Ryder informed him that it is
not a matter of numbers, but the matter of safety. Chairman
Thompson added that he can see a problem of who is going to be
stuck with the development of this and he thinks the traffic
will overload it before the next plat is submitted with it
being generated by the park and school. Mr. Malavasi asked
if this application was postponed, would the County be required
to four lane this road and Mr. Annunziato informed him the main
access to the park is from the south. Mr. Malavasi stated he
submitted a traffic analysis as required and the experts recom-
mended a two lane road.
Chairman Thompson suggested that this be resolved with making a
recommendation to the City Council for their determination.
Mr. Ryder added that we will have to recommend what we see fit
and have Mr. Malavasi discuss it with the City Council. Mr.
Malavasi clarified they have agreed to four lane to the point
shown considering the school traffic. They will develop the
rest when the next plat is submitted.
Mr. Annunziato clarified that the staff recommendation is this
be approved subject to staff comments. Mr. Hester asked if the
staff requested the road to be four laned completely and Mr.
Annunziato replied negatively, but only easterly to the first
north/south intersection.
