Mr. Aguila moved to approve the minutes of the October 8, 1996 meeting. Vice Chairman
Golden seconded the motion, which carried 7-0.
5. COMMUNICATIONS AND ANNOUNCEMENTS
A. Report from the Planning and Zoning Department
1. Final Disposition of Last Meeting's Agenda It~!11s
Ms. Heyden reported the following:
· Boynton Festive Center Landscape Appeal - Approved by the City Commission
subject to all staff comments.
· Boynton Commons PCD Site Plan Approval - The Planning and Development Board
recommended that several comments be removed or reworded and a couple be
added regarding additional landscaping and screening. Prior to the City
Commission meeting, the Fire Department reexamined their comments and deleted
the one regarding the access to the rear of the Sports of Authority. With regard to
the turning radius behind Bed, Bath and Beyond and the other tenants in that area.
there was a typographical error in their memo. It was supposed to say, "diameter",
not "radius". Therefore, the plans were acceptable as drawn. However, they still
felt they needed rear access to that area. Therefore, the applicant agreed to locate
the standpipes at the corner and screen them with shrubs.
· Burger King Site Plan Approval - The City Commission approved this subject to all
staff comments and recommendations, in addition to the following:
· The design elements of the building will be the model for future outparcels
in that shopping center. The City Commission wants the mansard extended
all the way around the flat roof building. Therefore, we will expect that of
Discount Auto Parts and the outparcel to the north of it, which was supposed
to be Wal-Mart. Wal-Mart has backed out, so we do not know who that
tenant will be.
· Boynton Common PCD Parking Lot Variance - Postponed. The variance may not
be needed. We are working out some one-way issues on how to get access.

SITE PLAN - Request for site plan approval to construct a 213,650
square foot retail center including five (5) leased outparcel buildings
on 22.885 acres.
Joe Lelanlc of Land Deslon South advised that all of the issues were ironed out with the Planning
and Development Board, and he agrees with all of the revised conditions contained in the staff
report.
He brought forth the following two conditions for information purposes only:
1. One of the conditions that were modified at the last hearing regarded the Walgreen's
building on the north side of the site. The condition was to increase the amount of glass
area on the north side of the building to come up to the standards of the 25%.
Mr. Lelanic displayed an illustration which showed how the applicant redesigned the plan to meet
that condition.
2. The applicant originally had a clock tower in the middle of the site. In an effort to respond
to comments that have been made at past meetings, the developer has started to work in
some concepts on an outparcel (Video Avenue) to try to inClude a clock tower feature. It is
somewhat scaled down compared to what was in the middle of the site, but it provides a
visual focus.
Ms. Heyden advised that, based on discussions with the Public Works Director and the Fire
Department since the Planning and Development Board meeting, she is recommending that the
Commission approve all the staff comments and Planning and Development Board
recommendations with the exception of Comment #66. This comment relates to the redesign of the
dumpsters. The reason for the recommendation to exclude Comment #66 from the approval is the
fact that the parking lot variance is one of the items that was postponed this evening. The staff
recommendation for the parking lot variance conflicts with Comment #66. It is premature to delete
that comment until staff has an opportunity to see the parking lot variance which may impact the
circulation in the area. The Commission will have another opportunity to see this again in the future.
Mayor Taylor recalled a problem wittl-the standpipes. Ms. Heyden advised that Comments #7 and
#8 became issues at the Planning and Development Board. Comment #7 deals with the turning
radius. After speaking with the Fire Department, they have agreed to delete this comment. With
regard to Comment #8, the Fire Department has reevaluated the site plan and determined that only

the north side of major #5 (Bed, Bath & Beyond) is not acceptable. They are requiring that the
applicant work with them to relocate the ,standpipes. The Fire Department would agree to allow
hedges in front of the standpipes to screen them.
With regard to Comment #66, Mr. Lelanic advised that one of the reasons the applicant tried to
resolve this issue at the last public hearing was to try to keep the dumpster opening from facing Old
Boynton Road, and to allow the access of that to the south. On the plans, Mr. Lelanic showed the
area which is to the west of Walgreen's. The site plan shows a one-way access off Old Boynton
Road into the property. One of the changes Ms. Heyden proposed was postponing the variance to
provide a one-way in and one-way out of the site to allow for better traffic flow in and around the site.
Accessing this dumpster from the south is for aesthetic reasons. The applicant feels there will be
a better look to the site if the dumpster is accessed from the south. In addition, flow around the site
will be improved. Mr. Lelanic requested that the change recommended by the Planning and
Development Board remain in effect.
With regard to Comment #68, the applicant realizes there will be some issues which will have to be
resolved with the Fire Department with regard to the standpipe locations. The applicant's concern
is to keep the aesthetics as clean and neat as possible. Standpipes are not attractive in front of the
building. The applicant will attempt to move them to the sides of the building or as close to the
corners as possible. The applicant will work with the Fire Department.
In response to Commissioner Bradley's request, Ms. Heyden indicated the dumpster area on the
site plan and explained that the Planning and Development Board is recommending moving the
dumpster enclosure farther north and shifting the angle to the satisfaction of the Public Works
Department to increase the back-up distance.
Mr. Lelanic explained that Comment #1 from Public Works requires the dumpster location to be
repositioned to allow the approach from the north rather than from the south. In addition, they
requested that the enclosure be moved as far to the south as possible. It was the applicant's
intention not to negate the stacking distance. The applicant intended to move the dumpster location
slightly to the north to allow it to be rotated further. This would allow more stacking distance.
Commissioner Bradley questioned how the dumpster opening will be facing Old Boynton Road if
it is located on the west side of the building. Mr. Lelanic explained that it is 450 off center. If the
applicant responds to Comment #1, that opening would be 450 altered to the north. That dumpster
opening could then be viewed from the road when travelling east on Old Boynton Road. Mr. Lelanic
feels the wall and landscaping are better than concrete and gate enclosure.
Ms. Heyden advised that if the dumpster enclosure and gates are visible from Old Boynton Road
because of its location for this building, there will be very little distance where one will actually see
the dumpster from Old Boynton Road.
Mr. Lelanic is not opposed to dealing with this issue at the time of the variance; however, he
requested that the applicant not be tied into Comment #1 at this point.
In response to Vice Mayor Jaskiewicz' question, Mr. Lelanic advised that the applicant will submit
for permit drawings as soon as these proceedings are completed. He anticipates that this will occur
in the next two to three weeks. As soon as that process is completed, construction will commence.

leased to the two restaurants. In addition, the current owner of the overall shopping center
will remain the underlying owner of the two retail parcels which are currently leased. So
technically there is no change other than a 99 year lessee will become an owner. They are
doing this purely for business and tax reasons. There is a very detailed operation and
easement agreement of approximately 80 pages which has been recorded in the public
records. The City Attorney has reviewed it and it will be part of the record as part of the
subdivision.
Mr. Haag asked if the 18 inch hedge will be installed on both sides of the access way.
Ms. Jarkesy said. "No." The condition reads, "on either side". She has not analyzed it with
the landscape architect yet. Therefore, it has not been determined which side would be
the better side yet. She had some concerns with line of sight. In order to address safety
issues, a hedge may not be appropriate the entire width of the landscape barriers.
Therefore, this will have to be looked at closely.
Mr. Haag informed the board that he has not yet received confirmation from the City
Attorney that the 80 page document referred to by Ms. Jarkesy has been accepted.
Motion
Mr. Wische moved to approve the request for a landscape appeal to omit a 2.5 foot wide
landscape strip between a vehicle use area and a proposed abutting property line in
connection with subdividing the shopping center for Boynton Festive Center, subject to
staff comments. Mr. Elsner seconded the motion.
Chairman Dube asked if anyone in the audience wished to speak for or against this issue;
however, no one did.
The motion carried 6-0.
Mr. Aguila pointed out that Ms. Jarkesy made a valid point. If you hedge the entire length,
there will be some visibility problems. Therefore, some latitude needs to be afforded.
Mr. Haag stated that we will apply the standard line of sight regulations.

Location: The southwest corner of Old Boynton Road and

Description: Request for site plan approval to construct a 213,650
square foot retail center including five (5) leased out
parcel buildings on 22.885 acres.
Joe Lelonek with Land Design South requested a 30 day postponement on the parking lot
variance so that he can clear up some issues and revise the entrance.
With regard to the site plan, he addressed the conditions that he did not agree with.
Comment 1,' Reposition the dumpster located on the west side of Walgreens to allow the approach from
the north rather than from the south side. Move the dumpster enclosure to the south. as far
as possible, to allow a longer stacking area behind the sanitation vehicle servicing the
dumpster from the north. (This comment was made by Public Works.)
Mr. Lelonek said the proposed tenants are all national tenants, and all of them have certain
ways of arranging their sites and function on the site. Walgreens has a clearly defined way
that they arrange their dumpsters and how they operate them. If we move it, then we start
getting away from how they operate their stores. It seems like an insignificant item on
paper, but when you get down to the actual operation of the store, etc., those changes and
directions mean an awful lot. He requested that this comment be deleted.
Mr. Aguila asked from which direction the loading zone will be accessed and how the truck
will exit it. Mr. Lelonek advised that it will be accessed from the north, and the truck will pull
directly out of the area.
It seemed to Chairman Dube that if the dumpster is moved, it will be in the way.
Mr. Lelonek spoke to Mark Weiner, the architect for this project, who said it might be
possible to flip the location of the entry so that the truck can access it from the north,
However, to move it farther to the south is impossible.
Mr. Weiner said aside from Walgreens' concerns of easy access to the doors of the trash
area, the orientation takes the opening of the doors away from the entrance off of Old
Boynton Road. Aesthetically, it makes more sense to face it in that direction. He said he
could try to talk Walgreens into turning the doors in the other direction; however, he cannot
move it because it would interfere with the loading.

Mr, Aguila felt aesthetics were more important. He pointed out that the truck can enter
from the south and drive around the building. He did not want to see the dumpster gates
from Old Boynton Road. He had no objections to the way the applicant has oriented it.
Mr. Haag advised that it may require some modification in the angle. Mr. Weiner was
willing to look at the angle, but he believes there is 60 feet behind it. Mr. Aguila asked if
there is room to move the dumpster a little north and turn it a little more counterclockwise.
Mr. Weiner had no problem moving it north.
Comment 7: Turn around in the service court is inadequate. a radius of 90' to 110' is required and a drive
through will be necessary. (This comment was made by Bill Cavanaugh of the Fire
Department.)
Mr. lelonek said typically in a right-of-way in a residential subdivision, cul-de-sacs are
anywhere from a 45' radius to a 50' radius. He felt this request is excessive. There is an
80' radius, which gives you about 160 feet of pavement. He felt that is more than
adequate. He suggested reducing it to a 45' to 50' radius, and felt this comment should
be deleted. (See further discussion in the second paragraph under comment 8.)
Comment 8: The west building side of major number six and the north building side of major number five
is not accessible. Fire hydrants shall be located so that no part of the building is over two
hundred feet away. (This comment was made by Bill Cavanaugh of the Fire Department.)
Mr. lelonek advised that Major #6 is the Sports Authority. The reason we do not have
access, pavement, or a driving lane around the west side of this building is because we are
trying to provide landscaping. There is a truck well, so you can get all the way back to the
mid point of the Sports Authority building. We also have the compactor, so you can get
back just about to the mid point or the corner of that building. We feel that the area of
landscaping between the back of that building and Winchester Parkway is going to be
more beneficial to the City than more asphalt back there. If there is a problem, the road
could still be accessed. You could get to the truck well on both sides. Staff also wanted
access behind the Bed, Bath & Beyond building. However, we feel that closing the access
off behind Bed, Bath & Beyond and just leaving the truck well there gives a better look
along Old Boynton Road. He felt this comment should be deleted.
With regard to comment 7, Mr. Haag advised that Mr. Cavanaugh informed him that a drive
through will not be necessary and that a turnaround in the service court is inadequate.
However, he still is firm about the radius of 90' and the 180' diameter. With regard to Major
#6 and Major #5, the Fire Chief said that if all of the standpipe connections to the front of
the building are removed, then that would be acceptable as a solution to the first part of
comment 8.

Mr, Lelonek stated that it has been important to keep the aesthetic look of this as clean and
neat as possible to create something that the City is going to enjoy. Moving the standpipe
to the front of these buildings would be an eyesore. From an aesthetic standpoint, and
with the amount of access being providing, this is not an agreeable solution to him,
With regard to the 90' radius, he felt that the 160' is well in excess of the cul-de-sac radius
that is currently being used in the City. He did not feel this is going to be a hindrance to
the Fire Department and he asked that this comment should be deleted.
Chairman Dube asked why the Fire Department needs a 90' radius. Mr. Haag assumed
that the new aerial truck requires a larger radius than the other trucks. Mr. Aguila pointed
out that the truck can make a three point turnaround and get out of there in a 65' radius.
Mr. Wische did not agree with staff comments 7 and 8. He doubted that an aerial ladder
is needed for a one-story building. Mr. Weiner will contact Mr. Cavanaugh and try to
resolve the location of the standpipes.
Comment 32: Typical lake section shall indicate a 20' maintenance berm. (This comment was made by the
Department of Development.)
Mr. Lelonek advised that the Engineering Department requested a 20' maintenance berm
all the way around the lake. We are trying to provide a landscaping wall/lake arrangement
to buffer the buildings from the back corner and allow view of the lake from the intersection
as much as possible. If we have to provide a 20' maintenance berm all the way around this
site, we are going to have to get rid of the wall or move the wall out to the right-of-way line
so that we can provide access through the parking lot, etc. We have access through the
landscape along Winchester Park Boulevard. We can provide areas every 50 or 100 feet.
We also have access all the way along the south side of the lake and up to the start of the
wall. He would like this condition deleted and he would like to work out some type of
alternative with the Engineering Department so that he can keep the landscaping.
Mr. Aguila asked who is maintaining the lake. Mr. Lelonek advised that the property
owners will maintain it.
Comment 46: Modify the north elevation of the Walgreens building to comply with the community design
plan regulations regarding percent of window openings for building facades that have a drive-
up window. If the subject project is approved, the Walgreens out-parcel building will not
receive a building permit until either the north building facade complies with the code or an
appeal to the code is granted by the City Commission. The deadline for applications for
appeals to the Community Design Plan is 15 working days prior to a Planning and
Development Board meeting.

Mr. Lelonek advised that comments 46 and 47 deal with architectural renderings and
presentations on the site.
Mr. Weiner displayed the north elevation that is in question. He stated that the ordinance
requires a certain percentage of fenestration on all walls that face the public right-ot-way
and/or are associated with the drive-thru teller. He assumed this ordinance was intended
tor bank situations. Walgreens, as most of these national tenants, has fixtures all along
their outside wall. We are providing the windows; however, they are not real windows. He
was not sure they were exactly 10 percent, but they make sense tor the elevation.
Mr. Aguila telt the elevation was appropriate, is to the proper scale, and balances well. He
did not know if adding more fenestration, whether real or artificial, is going to make the
elevation any better. In tact, it may make it busier and less attractive.
Mr. Weiner thinks this comment was made because it is not transparent glass. Mr. Haag
advised that it does not meet the percentage, which requires an appeal. You have to have
25 percent of the wall area in glass (store front). Then you are allowed a percentage of
that to be simulated. The applicant has not met the 25 percent. Mr. Weiner said he
probably could solve the 25 percent issue, but not the percentage of opaque glass. He
said he could put transparent glass in, but you would see the back of a fixture. Mr. Haag
recommended that Mr. Weiner meet the 25 percent requirement and work with staff on the
other percentages. Ms. Heyden does not want 100 percent simulated glass. She would
like to know the percentages.
Mr. Aguila felt this regulation does not make sense for a store that has displays against all
four walls. Mr. Weiner stated that even if we used real glass, Walgreens would probably
put some sort of security device on them because they do not want any more openings
than necessary. Mr. Aguila said we are trying to avoid having ugly, unornamented
elevations. Mr. Weiner felt there are ways of dealing with that without putting in windows.
Comment 47: Change the design of the below listed building facades to be as attractive (with increased
articulation and/or fenestration) as the front of the building:
i. north, south and west sides of the Sports Authority outbuilding;
ii. east and south sides of the Bed. Bath & Beyond tenant space;
iii. west side of major tenant #4 and
iv, add roof tile to the Video Ave out-parcel building similar to the sloped roof entrance
to the Old Navy tenant space

apply and receive approval of an appeal to the Community Design Plan for the following code
section: LOR. Chapter 9 - Community Design Plan. Section 11.1.
To comply with this comment. it is recommended that the elevations of the buildings be
changed to show additional detail such as the sloped tile roof that is shown on the fronts of
the buildings.
Mr, Lelonek stated that on the north side along Old Boynton Road, we are providing a
continuous wall all the way around the loading, parking, and access areas, and all the way
around the lake to the other side. We are also providing landscaping, berms, and a lot of
vegetation there to try to block the views of the back of the building; from ground height up
to 14 or 15 feet. A six foot high screened wall with landscaping with be installed in the
back. There is going to be a substantial amount of vegetation. He felt this will help in
terms of the architectural elevations.
Mr. Lelonek said staff wants additional articulation and fenestration on the remainder of the
building. He pointed out the amount of landscaping and buffering that we are dealing with.
He said the south side of the other parcels back up to similar buffers and there are
additional parcels between them and Boynton Beach Boulevard. Therefore, he did not
believe this is an issue.
Mr. Weiner said the elevations that are in question are along the east and north sides of
Bed, Bath & Beyond. He referred to the east elevation and said we tried to articulate as
much as we can on the 200 foot long blank wall. We tried to leave a fair amount of space
between the curb line and the building so we could put a significant amount of landscaping
there. There is a feature and articulation on the wall treatments. He can add more trim
and do some more things with the wall treatments; however, the same situation exists as
with Walgreens. They cannot put windows there. Some fake ones can be put there, but
he did not think that is a requirement.
On the north side, there is a truck well and loading doors. Our solution to that was the
increased buffer area, the wall at the lower levels, so the only thing that you are seeing
from the street is from 12 or 14 feet up. At that point, we are providing treatment on the
wall. The same thing holds true for Sports Authority. We could probably deal with Major
#4, although it faces an adjacent parcel, not the street. We are revising the elevations on
Video Ave and will pick up the slope roof with tile. We are also introducing a clock tower
element on that building.
Chairman Dube asked if it is true that the wall will block most of it. Mr. Haag said his
concern is not so much this portion of the building because that is back past the 180'
10
\lI~TTES
PL\N:\I:SG AND DEVELOP\tENT BOARD

diameter turnaround. However, this portion is very close to Old Boynton Road. Mr. Weiner
said he is concerned about it also, and that is why there is approximately 40 to 45 feet of
landscape buffer with the wall. He had no problem trying to come up with some sort of
additional treatment on the upper levels.
Mr. Lelonek felt one of the possible solutions is to buffer it further by introducing more trees
into that area; perhaps a double row of trees so that when it is installed, we have more of
an instantaneous buffer which hides the lower portion where the loading doors, etc., are.
Mr. Haag pointed out that our minimum height for trees is 8 feet. The height of the building
is 24 feet. Mr. Lelanek said something a little more substantial (perhaps 12 feet in height)
and perhaps a heartier visual buffer can be installed in specific locations, such as the areas
behind Bed, Bath & Beyond.
Comment 56: To enhance the appearance of this planned commercial development (peD). it is
recommended that there be decorative pedestrian lights added to the front of each outbuilding
and multi-tenant building. It is further recommended that the major east/west and north/south
access aisle have decorative site lighting poles lines each side of the access aisle. These
poles shall match the design of the pedestrian poles recommended for the fronts of the
buildings,
Mr. Lelonek stated that one of the problems with this comment is that we are trying to meet
minimum lighting standards for a lot of these tenants. Their standards are more restrictive
than a lot of the City Codes. To do that, we have to provide larger light features, etc. If we
provide smaller decorative lighting, we are not going to have the amount of illumination that
we need on this site. Although, there are some areas on the fronts of the buildings where
we can do this, he would like to delete this condition because of the amount of light that
has to be provided on this site. He advised that there are hefty landscape conditions, and
to throw the accurate light, the taller lights are needed.
Comment 59: To unify the design of the wall signage on Bed, Bath & Beyond and Sports Authority, it is
recommended that the sign on the east side of the Bed, Bath & Beyond tenant space be
modified in shape and configuration to resemble the sign located on the east side of the
Sports Authority outbuilding.
Mr. Lelonek pointed out that we are dealing with national tenants on this property. Each
national tenant has their own requirements for signage. We are working up signage plans
for the site and will try to come up with a complete package so that at a future time, we will
be able to look at each one of those signs before it goes in for a permit. He requested that
this comment be deleted and addressed as part of the signage program.

Mr. Haag advised that staff is against this sign. However, if it is allowed, it should have
some configuration. Mr. Weiner also wants to see uniformity and compatibility among all
these buildings as much as Mr, Haag does. However, he did not think you necessarily
have to do that by making them all look exactly the same. He felt it was a question of
compatible details.
Comment 60: It is recommended that the Bed & Bath signage on the east facade of the tenant space be
omitted.
Mr. Lelonek stated that the Bed, Bath & Beyond signage on the east facade is some of
their primary frontage on the property. It is an icon for their store. The signage is not your
typical strip center sign. It is almost a logo in itself and a nice feature to have on the
element. He requested that this comment be deleted.
Chairman Dube asked Ms. Heyden if she wanted comments 59 and 60 handled now or
when the sign package comes in. Ms. Heyden stated that it probably makes sense to have
it done as part of the sign package. If deleted now, she reserved the right to add the
comments back in when the sign program comes in. Mr. Rosenstock suggested facing the
issue now so that the applicant knows the position of this board and the City Commission
before he proceeds.
Mr. Lelonek stated that the sign age for each one of the national tenants is one of the last
things provided to the architect. He said staff requested that we provide installation
documents for those signs; however, those documents will not be ready until we have the
final permits. Mr. Rosenstock was concerned about the unanimity of signage. Mr. Weiner
advised that sign designers have been hired to do a complete package on all the signage,
including pylon signs and all the major tenant signs. Mr. Rosenstock pointed out that all
the national franchises have their individual logos, colors, and designs. Mr. Weiner said
we are going to unify the sign package as much as we can and present it at a future date.
He did not want it to be part of the general site approval at this time. Mr. Aguila asked the
applicant if, at whatever risk, he is willing to address all signage issues at a later date.
Mr. Weiner answered affirmatively.
Mr. Aguila asked Mr. Haag what the specific problem with comment 60 is. Mr. Haag did
not know if the calculations have been completed to see if there is enough room for all the
signage that is shown. Mr. Weiner said most of the signs shown are smaller. Ms. Frazier
asked for clarification of this comment. Mr. Aguila explained that staff felt there should be
no text in the signage area. The architect said he is within compliance of the allowable
percentage of wall space and signage, so he would like to keep it.

Comment 65: It is recommended that the exterior colors of the walls and architectural features of the multi-
tenant buildings be the same color scheme (different shades acceptable) rather than being
a different color, as displayed on the colored elevation view drawings of the Bed Bath &
Beyond tenant space and the remainder of the building as well as the different colors
displayed on the south building. Considering the close proximity of Major #4 and the multi-
tenant building directly to the east, it is recommended that the entire south building square
footage be considered as one building for purposes of exterior color,
Mr. Lelonek advised that the applicant purposefully came up with some different color
schemes to add some zest to the large buildings so that the project does not look like a big
monolithic structure. He requested the flexibility of going back to what was originally
proposed.
Mr. Haag circulated the color pallet and said when he made this comment, he did not have
the color pallet, which does not show as much pink as shown on the building in the
elevation. Therefore, he withdrew this comment.
In light of the conversation about signage this evening, and as long as the applicant is
willing to postpone the issue of signage, she felt it would be best to withdraw the comments
about signage and have them reviewed and resubmitted with the sign program.
Mr. Aguila referred to site plan sheet SP-3 and the six foot screen wall that is on the west
side of Sports Authority. He asked if the applicant would consider moving that about 50
or 60 feet to the south and extending the hedge with it to screen off more of the drive.
Mr. Lelonek said he will try to work around it as best he can; however, the engineer for the
site told him that some storm drainage and gravity sewer lines may be running through
there. Therefore, to the extend possible, he will run it down into that area.
Mr. Aguila referred to the west side of Major #4 where there is sod, Palms, Oaks, etc., and
asked if the applicant would consider putting a continuous hedge along that wall.
Mr. Lelonek said that would not be a problem.
With regard to comment 1, Mr. Aguila felt comfortable that the applicant is going to adjust
the dumpster as needed for the truck. It may have to be shifted a little to the north. With
regard to comment 7, he felt 90 feet and 100 feet were outrageous. He preferred to cut
it back by another 20 feet and extend either more parking or the landscaped area. He
opposed the Fire Department's condition of 90 feet, and supported leaving it the way it is
on the site plan. With regard to comment 8 (relocating the fire hydrants), he felt that as
long as those standpipes are accessible to the truck, comments 7 and 8 can be deleted.
He stated that they are not going to approve the building permits unless they have access

to those standpipes. He felt putting them in front of the building was crazy. It is not
something he would want to see when he walks into an attractive building. He felt
comment 32 can be deleted. He pointed out that the applicant is responsible for the
maintenance and it is entirely up to the applicant whether he has 5 feet or 20 feet. With
regard to comment 46 (the elevation ot Walgreens), he saw no reason why any of the
glass has to be transparent. With regard to comment 47, he felt some articulation should
be added to the back of the buildings, it possible, but not too much because it can get too
busy, He suggested that the applicant add some more landscaping in the worse areas (the
areas closer to the right-ot-way) and do some staggered heights (8, 10, 12, and 14 feet)
at planting time. He did not want to drive down Old Boynton Road and look at the back of
the building above the wall and trees and see air handler units. With regard to comment
56. he agreed with the applicant. He stated that most of these tenants have demands on
lighting that are in excess of anything that we would want for decorative purposes, and to
install them both is a waste of money.
Ms. Frazier said tonight many questions were raised, and she felt the department heads
should attend these meetings to answer them. Chairman Dube realizes the department
heads cannot attend every meeting. He suggested that they be a little more specific about
why they make a particular comment.
Motion
Commissioner Aguila moved to approve the request for site plan approval to construct a
213.650 square foot retail center including five leased out parcel buildings on 22.885 acres,
Boynton Commons PCD located on the southwest corner of Old Boynton Road and
Congress Avenue, subject to all staff comments and the following clarifications:
· Comment 1 - to be resolved between the applicant and the Public Works
Department for access;
· Comment 7 - to be deleted (leave it as shown on the site plan);
· Comment 8 - ensure that the standpipe connections are accessible to the Fire
Department; other comment 8 is deleted;
· Comment 46 - ensure that they comply with the 25 percent minimum window
openings for the building elevations on Walgreens, and that can be done by false
glass;

Comment 47 - ensure that by adding additional landscaping that they provide ample
coverage. provide landscaping to buffer the rear elevations of the building, a
combination of landscaping and architectural articulation:
. Comments 56.59, and 60 - delete;
. As much as possible, extend the west decorative wall on the west side of Sports
Authority approximately 60 feet to the south where not in conflict with ground
structures, and extend the hedge along with it: and
. Add a continuous hedge on the west side of Major #4.
Mr. Elsner seconded the motion.
With regard to comment 32, Chairman Dubs stated that the Code was probably written on
the basis of the City maintaining the lake. However, the City is not maintaining the lake in
this case. Ms. Heyden stated that this requirement is in our planing regulations for all
lakes, whether they are maintained by the City or not. She felt if Mr. Lelonek might be able
to work out something with the City Engineer. Mr. Lelonek asked if it was possible to
delete this condition and deal with the code requirements and Engineering on this item.
Mr. Aguila suggested leaving this condition in and that the applicant comply with whatever
is worked out.
The motion carried 6-0.
