That cost is included in the $87,900. If the agreements are approved, all of the properties would be turned over to the School Board. In the future, we will move forward with appraisals on the properties delineated with dotted marks on the map around NW 11 th Avenue and on NW 1 Street to determine how much money is needed to acquire them. The City wants to acquire Property #8 within the next three to four months. To date, the School Board and City have spent $429,303 on acquisitions. This is not a final cost. We anticipate another $50,000 or $100,000 to be added to that figure. The final cost to date should be around $500,000, which cost will be split between the City and the School Board. When the agreement was first signed, the City set aside $600,000 for this project. We should have enough money left to continue with the majority of property acquisitions. At Commissioner Bradley's request, Mr. Hawkins explained that the Poinciana site is smaller than what the School Board likes to build on. This property is now approximately 12 acres, and that is after acquisition of approximately 4 acres, The properties along NW 11th Avenue would all be used to expand the site, and possibly be used the area for additional parking. The way the site is presently configured, there will be limited parking. The property at the end of NW 11th Avenue (Property #8) would open up NW 11th Avenue to NW 1 st Street to allow for better vehicular circulation around the school. It would also be used for pickup, parking and better circulation between Seacrest and NW 1 st Street. All of the property acquisitions are necessary to accumulate enough land to bring the site to the standards the School Board would find acceptable. Vice Mayor Jaskiewicz inquired if the School Board is demolishing the old school. Mr. Hawkins responded affirmatively. Commissioner Tillman questioned the relationship between Wilson Center and the proposed drainage pond. Mr. Hawkins explained that there is a strip of right-of-way that the City owns a portion of and South Florida Water Management District owns a portion of, There will be on-site drainage, but the additional drainage will be on the City's right-of- way, This will be a fenced retention area, It is not anticipated that this area will hold water a lot of the time, but it will exist to allow for excess water. Commissioner Tillman feels these areas cause the growth of mosquito larvae. Mr. Hawkins explained that when the area is cleaned out, it is landscaped with grass which is sprayed. Commissioner Tillman questioned whether or not there was a way to get a clear drain out to the C-16 canal. Mr. Hawkins does not believe the Water Management District would 25 MINUTES REGULAR CITY COMMISSION BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA APRIL 16, 1996 allow that. Commissioner Bradley said there have been incredible meetings with the School Board over this issue. They have storm scenarios. and the storm water run-off rules are very tight. Commissioner Bradley envisions the properties near the Wilson Center being acquired one day so that we can enter into a joint use type of situation. He sees a benefit for the Wilson Center, the school and the neighborhood sharing these facilities. Commissioner Tillman feels there might be mitigating circumstances in terms of mosquito larva if water is allowed to percolate or sit. This area might be hazardous to children. City Manager Parker advised that this strip is not scheduled to hold any standing water. The standing water pond is where the existing library is currently on the site. Commissioner Tillman is concerned about a pond full of mosquito larva being on a school site. City Manager Parker said the School Board must maintain the pond so that this does not happen. That would be a health hazard. The health department, PTA, or principal will not stand for that situation. If the School Board is not cleaning the pond, we will hear about it. In response to Commissioner Bradley's question, Mr. Hawkins said the Maintenance Department and Facilities Management Department, which takes care of large issues, would handle this responsibility. Commissioner Bradley commended staff for working out all of the points of this agreement. Motion Vice Mayor Jaskiewicz moved to approve, Commissioner Bradley seconded the motion which carried unanimously. D. Other 1, Code Enforcement Lien Reduction for Louise and Sharon Denson. 229 NW 3rd Avenue Scott Blasie, Code Enforcement Administrator, made the presentation. This process started as a result of the Wrice marches. There were Code violations and car repairs being done at the address. The Code Enforcement Board reduced the fine to $480.15. This was based on the testimony that the Denson's were not aware that overgrown grass on the east side of the property was their responsibility. The Board Order was split into two separate orders that evening. Some of the violations took time to comply; however, the overgrown grass, which accumulated the fine, had only ten days to comply. 26 7 .A. 2 POINCIANA ELEMENTARY SCHOOL PUBLIC HEARING ATTACHMENT "A" LOCATION MAP 1- ATTACHMENT "Au LOCATION MAP 5 x.

HeYden,~)il Planning and Zoning Director FROM: Michael W. Rumpf Senior Planner DATE: November 7, 1995 SUBJECT: poinciana Elementary School (LUAR 95-001) Request for Land Use Amendment/Rezoning INTRODUCTION Jan C. Hansen, agent for The School Board of Palm Beach County, requests to change 1.5 acres of property which are adjacent to, and being added to, the existing approximate 8.6 acre Poinciana Elementary School campus located on the west side of Seacrest Boulevard, between N.W. 11th Avenue and N.W. 13th Avenue (see attached location map), Specifically, the subject property consists of multiple parcels located at the northeast corner of the project along N.W. 13th Avenue, and at the southeast and southwest corners of the site which front on the pending abandonment of N.W. 12th Avenue. All subject parcels are currently classified Medium Density Residential, and zoned either R-1-A (Single-family residential district) or R-2 (Single and Two-family dwelling district). The applicant requests that the land use of the subject property be reclassified and it be rezoned consistent with the exIsting school campus, which is Public & Private Governmental/Institutional (PPGI) and Public Usage (PU), respectively. During the past 12 months, The School Board of Palm Beach County has acquired the subject parcels, removed existing structures on those newly acquired parcels, has submitted abandonment applications for the adjacent rights-of-way of N,W. 12th Avenue and Washington Avenue, and begun construction of a new Poinciana Elementary School, With respect to current school use, the existing school facilities will continue to be utilized during construction of the new building, This school redevelopment project will enable consolidation and better utilization of the campus (in part by abandoning NW 12th Avenue which has always separated the school from their larger recreation area), and the replacement of multiple antiquated facilities with a single and larger modern elementary school, This school expansion project received official support from the City of Boynton Beach in 1992 when the City processed Resolution R92-209, which in part, conveyed the community's desire for the continued operation of this school. Furthermore, to facilitate the coordination of certain joint City-School Board activities such as land acquisition, the two entities entered into an interlocal agreement in 1993 (this agreement will be amended to also allow city-owned property to be used for project drainage in order to meet both SFWMD and city drainage requirements) . PROCEDURE As this amendment to the Comprehensive Plan represents a small-scale amendment pursuant to state law, the proposed amendment will not be reviewed by the Florida Department of Community Affairs (DCA) but will become effective 31 days following adoption of the ordinance. While documentation on the small-scale amendment is required to be sent to the DCA, no review for compliance is conducted. ADJACENT LAND USE AND ZONING Since the subject parcels are rather isolated within the existing schoo~ campus, few other properties are i~mediately adjacent to the affected properties. As indicated on the location map, the subject parcels front on ~~ 13th Avenue, Seacrest Boulevard, and on the abandoned NW 12th Avenue. The only exception to this statement regarding limited adjacent / Memorandum No. 95-602 -2- November 7, 1995 properties is at the southwest corner of the campus where an area to be rezoned directly abuts a single family home within the R-1-A (Single- family Residential) zoning district. Lastly, those properties separated from the subject parcels by NW 13th Avenue are predominantly single family homes zoned R-2 (Single- and Two-family dwelling district) . Pursuant to the Land Development Regulations, Chapter 2, Section 8 (Administration and Enforcement), when a rezoning request requires an amendment to the Future Land Use Map, staff shall evaluate such applications with respect to -the follmling crit8ri.: ~/ (-e... <', 0- t <- (...... 7 ~ CONSISTENCY WITH APPLICABLE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN POLICIES . <? The Comprehensive Plan does not contain policies which' specifically address expansion of the Poinci.ana Elementary School campus. However, the Plan does include an objective and general policy that require the City to assist Palm Beach County with "maintaining or improving" school quality. Objective 8.22 and Policy 8.22.2 read as follows: Objective 8.22 - "The City shall increase the mechanisms for intergovernmental coordination with the Palm Beach County School Board in order to assist the School Board in maintaining or improving the quality of the County's school system and to ensure consistency with the plans and policies of the school board.

AVAILABILITY OF ALTERNATIVE SITES ADEOUATE FOR PROPOSED USE With respect to alternative sites for this project, the existing site is the most logical location for this school given its proximity to residential neighborhoods and its location between the nearest two elementary schools (i. e. Galaxy Elementary School and Rolling Green Elementary School) , RECOMMENDATION The Planning and Zoning Department recommends that the application submitted by Jan C. Hansen for the School Board of Palm Beach County be approved, based on the following: 1. The proposed rezoning is consistent with all goals, objectives and policies of the Comprehensive Plan; 2. The proposed rezoning is consistent with the established land use pattern; 3. The proposed rezoning is compatible with adjacent land uses and will not negatively affect property values; 4. The scale of the proposed rezoning is relative to the needs of the immediate neighborhood as well as to the City as a whole; and 5. The proposed rezoning is consistent with Resolution #92-208 which encourages and supports maintaining the poinciana Elementary School at its current location, and is related to an interlocal agreement between the City and The School Board of Palm Beach County which facilitates the joint City-School Board effort to redevelop the existing school campus.

HeYden/~)tl Planning and Zoning Director FROM: Michael W. Rumpf Senior Planner DATE: November 7/ 1995 SUBJECT: poinciana Elementary School (LUAR 95-001) Request for Land Use Amendment/Rezoning INTRODUCTION Jan C. Hansen, agent for The School Board of Palm Beach County, requests to change 1.5 acres of property which are adjacent to, and being added to, the existing approximate 8.6 acre poinciana Elementary School campus located on the west side of Seacrest Boulevard, between N.W. 11th Avenue and N.W. 13th Avenue (see attached location map). Specifically, the subject property consists of multiple parcels located at the northeast corner of the project along N.W. 13th Avenue, and at the southeast and southwest corners of the site which front on the pending abandonment of N.W. 12th Avenue. All subject parcels are currently classified Medium Density Residential, and zoned either R-1-A (Single-family residential district) or R-2 (Single and Two-family dwelling district). The applicant requests that the land use of the subj ect property be reclassified and it be rezoned consistent with the existing school campus, which is Public & Private Governmental/Institutional (PPGI) and Public Usage (PU), respectively. During the past 12 months, The School Board of Palm Beach County has acquired the subject parcels, removed existing structures on those newly acquired parcels, has submitted abandonment applications for the adjacent rights-of-way of N.W. 12th Avenue and Washington Avenue, and begun construction of a new poinciana Elementary School, With respect to current school use, the existing school facilities will continue to be utilized during construction of the new building. This school redevelopment project will enable consolidation and better utilization of the campus (in part by abandoning NW 12th Avenue which has always separated the school from their larger recreation area), and the replacement of multiple antiquated facilities with a single and larger modern element~ry school. This school expansion project received official support from the City of Boynton Beach in 1992 when the City processed Resolution R92-209, which in part, conveyed the community/s desire for the continued operation of this school. Furthermore, to facilitate the coordination of certain joint City-School Board activities such as land acquisition, the two entities entered into an interlocal agreement in 1993 (this agreement will be amended to also allow city-owned property to be used for project drainage in order to meet both SFWMD and city drainage requirements) . PROCEDURE As this amendment to the Comprehensive Plan represents a small-scale amendment pursuant to state law, the proposed amendment will not be reviewed by the Florida Department of Community Affairs (DCA) but will become effective 31 days following adoption of the ordinance. While documentation on the small-scale amendment is required to be sent to the DCA, no review for compliance is conducted. ADJACENT LAND USE AND ZONING Since the subject parcels are rather isolated within the existing school campus, few other properties are immediately adjacent to the affected properties. As indicated on the location map, the subject parcels front on NW 13th Avenue, Seacrest Boulevard, and on the abandoned NW 12th Avenue. The only exception to this statement regarding limited adjacent I Memorandum No. 95-602 -2- November 7, 1995 properties is at the southwest corner of the campus where an area to be rezoned directly abuts a single family home within the R-1-A (Single- family Residential) zoning district. Lastly, those properties separated from the subject parcels by NW 13th Avenue are predominantly single family homes zoned R-2 (Single- and Two-family dwelling district) . Pursuant to the Land Development Regulations, Chapter 2, Section 8 (Administration and Enforcement), when a rezoning request requires an amendment to the Future Land Use Map, staff shall evaluate such applications with respect to the following criteria: CONSISTENCY WITH APPLICABLE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN POLICIES The Comprehensive Plan does not contain policies which specifically address expansion of the Poinciana Elementary School campus. However, the Plan does include an objective and general policy that require the City to assist Palm Beach County with "maintaining or improving" school quality. Objective 8.22 and Policy 8.22.2 read as follows: Objective 8.22 - "The City shall increase the mechanisms for intergovernmental coordination with the Palm Beach County School Board in order to assist the School Board in maintaining or improving the quality of the County's school system and to ensure consistency with the plans and policies of the school board." i and Policy 8.22.2 - "The City shall assist the school board in locating future school sites." CONSISTENCY OF REZONING WITH ESTABLISHED LAND USE PATTERN The subject request represents a small expansion to the PPGI land use classification and PU zoning district currently in place on the poinciana Elementary School. Therefore, the subject request is consistent with the established land use pattern, the request would not create an isolated district, and lastly, the approval of the subject request would not be a grant of special privilege. CHANGING CONDITIONS AND DESIRABILITY OF THE REZONING Although it is known that most schools in the County are overcrowded, the Palm Beach County Educational Concurrency and Task Force has reported that "the greatest need for student stations is at the elementary and middle school facilities". The combination of the demand for school space and the age of the poinciana Elementary School represent the principle justifications for school expansion and the subject rezoning request. COMPATIBILITY OF REZONING WITH PUBLIC FACILITIES The lots proposed to be rezoned and incorporated into the existing school campus will allow for the construction of a new school building which will replace the multiple buildings currently being used. With respect to impacts on public facilities, as the project is intended to only replace obsolete facilities, and in general, to unify the school into one building, the projected demand on principle facilities (i.e. roads and utilities) will be comparable to the demand currently being generated. COMPATIBILITY OF REZONING WITH NEARBY PROPERTIES AND IMPACT ON VALUES Schools have typically been recognized as attributes within residential areas, as it is felt important to have children attend school within their own neighborhood. Such facilities provide a local source of recreation and education resources and meeting facilities for both adults and children. The City of Boynton Beach has acknowledged the desire to have maintained at this location the Poinciana Elementary School, and documented this objective through the aforementioned resolution. d< Memorandum No. 95-602 -3- November 7, 1995 PHYSICAL AND ECONOMICAL DEVELOPABILITY OF SUBJECT PROPERTY There are no known unique physical characteristics which would limit further development or redevelopment of the subject parcels. SCALE OF REZONING RELATIVE TO NEEDS OF NEIGHBORHOOD AND CITY The combined area of the subject parcels are only approximately 1.50 acres, and the redevelopment project is merely a replacement of the existing multi-building campus with a single, modern school facility. Given the small size of the project, and that which was stated above regarding compatibility with nearby properties, the proposed zoning and school improvement project are relative to needs of both the immediate neighborhood and the City. AVAILABILITY OF ALTERNATIVE SITES ADEOUATE FOR PROPOSED USE With respect to alternative sites for this project, the existing site is the most logical location for this school given its proximity to residential neighborhoods and its location between the nearest two elementary schools (i. e. Galaxy Elementary School and Rolling Green Elementary School) RECOMMENDATION The Planning and Zoning Department recommends that the application submitted by Jan C. Hansen for the School Board of Palm Beach County be approved, based on the following: 1. The proposed rezoning is consistent with all goals, objectives and policies of the Comprehensive Plan; 2. The proposed rezoning is consistent with the established land use pattern; 3. The proposed rezoning is compatible with adjacent land uses and will not negatively affect property values; 4. The scale of the proposed rezoning is relative to the needs of the immediate neighborhood as well as to the City as a whole; and 5. The proposed rezoning is consistent with Resolution #92-208 which encourages and supports maintaining the Poinciana Elementary School at its current location, and is related to an interlocal agreement between the City and The School Board of Palm Beach County which facilitates the joint City-School Board effort to redevelop the existing school campus.
