SUBJECT: Bowers Park subdivision, Blocks 10, 11 and 12 (15 foot wide alley
abandonment)
File No. ABAN 97-001
NA TURE OF REQUEST
The City of Boynton Beach is requesting abandonment of an unimproved 15 foot wide
city alley located within blocks 10, 11 and 12 of the Bowers Park subdivision. The city
alley is located between S.E. 5th Avenue and S.E. 6th Avenue, on both sides of Seacrest
Boulevard and west of the FEC Railway (see attached Exhibit "A" - a location map,
Exhibit "B" - copy of tax map delineating the subject alley and Exhibit "C" - legal
descriptions of the proposed abandonment).
BACKGROUND
The need to abandon the alley emerged when adjacent property owners were cited for
not properly maintaining city right-of-way abutting their property. Chapter 10 - Garbage,
Trash and Offensive Conditions, Article 1, Section 10-2 and Chapter 15 - Offenses-
Miscellaneous, Article IX, Section 15-120 (a) and (b) of the City's code, describes the
method used to enforce land owners' responsibility to maintain unimproved city rights-
of-way that abut their property. The following language is from Chapter 10 - Garbage,
Trash and Offensive Conditions, Article 1, Section 10-2: "owner(s) of lands within the
city shall keep the same and one-half of and abutting street, alley or easement free
from any accumulation of trash or filth, broken tree limbs or branches, uncontained
garbage or refuse, any containers or materials which could hold or conceal pools of
water, and heavy dense or dank growth of weeds, grass underbrush, palmettos, Florida
holly trees, or other uncultivated vegetaticn, or other dead or living plant life, which
might constitute a fire hazard, serve as a breeding place. etc." This alley was discussed
at the April 1, 1997 City Commission meeting. At that meeting it was stated that this
alley has caused the area to be a haven for vagrants which could lead to crime in the
area. The.. consensus of the City Commission at the April 1, 1997 meeting was to direct
staff to make application in the City's name to initiate the abandonment of the alley.
ANAL YSIS
The applicant's reasons for filing this abandonment and the grounds that support the
request are included in the attached Exhibit "0" - Application. The city departments
involved in the review of the request for abandonment and the utility companies notified
of the request are identified below. Public notice was given to the property owners that

SUBJECT: Bowers Park subdivision, Blocks 10, 11 and 12 (15 foot wide alley
abandonment)
File No. ABAN 97-001
NATURE OF REQUEST
The City of Boynton Beach is requesting abandonment of an unimproved 15 foot wide
city alley located within blocks 10, 11 and 12 of the Bowers Park subdivision. The city
alley is located between S.E. 5th Avenue and S.E. 6th Avenue, on both sides of Seacrest
Boulevard and west of the FEC Railway (see attached Exhibit "A" - a location map,
Exhibit "B" - copy of tax map delineating the subject alley and Exhibit "C" - legal
descriptions of the proposed abandonment).
BACKGROUND
The need to abandon the alley emerged when adjacent property owners were cited for
not properly maintaining city right-of-way abutting their property. Chapter 10 - Garbage,
Trash and Offensive Conditions, Article 1, Section 10-2 and Chapter 15 - Offenses-
Miscellaneous, Article IX, Section 15-120 (a) and (b) of the City's code, describes the
method used to enforce land owners' responsibility to maintain unimproved city rights-
of-way that abut their property. The following language is from Chapter 10 - Garbage,
Trash and Offensive Conditions, Article 1, Section 10-2: "owner(s) of lands within the
city shall keep the same and one-half of and abutting street, alley or easement free
from any accumulation of trash or filth, broken tree limbs or branches, uncontained
garbage or refuse, any containers or materials which could hold or conceal pools of
water, and heavy dense or dank growth of weeds, grass underbrush, palmettos, Florida
holly trees, or other uncultivated vegetation, or other dead or living plant life, which
might constitute a fire hazard, serve as a breeding place, etc." This alley was discussed
at the April 1, 1997 City Commission meeting. At that meeting it was stated that this
alley has caused the area to be a haven for vagrants which could lead to crime in the
area. The consensus of the City Commission at the April 1, 1997 meeting was to direct
staff to make application in the City's name to initiate the abandonment of the alley.
ANALYSIS
The applicant's reasons for filing this abandonment and the grounds that support the
request are included in the attached Exhibit "D" - Application. The city departments
involved in the review of the request for abandonment and the utility companies notified
of the request are identified below. Public notice was given to the property owners that
abut the subject alley and notice has been advertised in the newspaper. The utility
companies and the city departments' responses to the abandonment request are as
follows:

PLANNING AND ZONING DEPARTMENT
MEMORANDUM NO. 97- 203
TO:
Chairman and Members
Planning and Development Board
FROM:
Tambri J. Heyden, AICP
Planning and Zoning Director
DA TE:
May 8, 1997
SUBJECT: City alley abandonment - Bowers Park subdivision (15 foot wide alley
blocks10, 11 and 12)
File No. ABAN 97-001
NATURE OF REQUEST
AI Newbold, acting Director of Development, agent for the City of Boynton Beach, is
requesting abandonment of an undeveloped 15 foot wide city alley located within
blocks10, 11 and 12 of the Bowers Park subdivision. The city alley is located between
S.E. 5th Avenue and S.E. 6lh Avenue on both sides of Seacrest Boulevard, west of the
FEe Railway (see attached Exhibit "A" - a location map, Exhibit "B" - copy of tax map
delineating the subject alley and Exhibit "c" - legal descriptions of the proposed
abandonment).
BACKGROUND
The need to abandon the existing undeveloped alley emerged from adjacent property
owners not properly maintaining city right-of-way that abuts their property. The city
code of ordinances Chapter 10 - Garbage, Trash and Offensive Conditions, Article 1,
Section 10-2 and Chapter 15 - Offenses-Miscellaneous, Article IX, Section 15-120 (a)
and (b) describes the method enforced regarding land owners responsibility in
maintaining city rights-of-way that abut their. The following passage is from Chapter 10
- Garbage, Trash and Offensive Conditions, Article 1, Section 10-2; owner(s) of lands
within the city shall keep the same and one-half of and abutting street, alley or
easement free from any accumulation of trash or filth, broken tree limbs or branches,
uncontained garbage or refuse, any containers or materials which could hold or conceal
pools of water, and heavy dense or dank growth of weeds, grass underbrush,
palmettos, Florida holly trees, or other uncultivated vegetation, or other dead or living
plant life, which might constitute a fire hazard, serve as a breeding place, etc.
However, as stated at the April 1, 1997 City Commission meeting, this area of the
undeveloped city alley, has caused the area to be a haven for vagrants which could
lead to crime in the area. The consensus of the City Commission at the April 1, 1997
commission meeting was that staff be directed to make application in the City's name to
initiate the abandonment of the subject alley.
The Engineering Division of the Development Department and the Legal Department
where engaged in a city wide comprehensive abandonment project for which the
subject request is a prime target to be part of that project considering the alley is
undeveloped.
ANALYSIS
The applicant's reasons for filing this abandonment and the grounds that support the
request are included in the attached Exhibit "0" - Application. The city departments
involved in the review of the request for abandonment and the utility companies notified
of the request are identified below. Public notice was given to the property owners that

Planning and Development Board action is not required, in cases where review by the
Board will not lengthen the approval process (such as this request), the Commission is
desirous of receiving the Board's recommendation.
