Eaves and miscellaneous structure setbacks
Attached is a revised copy of my March 28th memorandum (Planning
and Zoning Department Memorandum No. 96-168) regarding eaves and
miscellaneous structure setbacks which has been revised as Planning
and Zoning Department Memorandum No. 96-181 to reflect the
arbor/trellis (#7 of memorandum) comments I made at the April 2,
1996 Commission meeting. Since the Commission agreed to forward
with an ordinance, this memorandum can be easily transformed now
into an ordinance for first reading April 16, 1996.

MEMORANDUM NO. 96-181
TO: Jim Cherof
City Attorney
FROM: Tambri J. Heyden
Planning and Zoning Director
DATE: April 3, 1996
SUBJECT: Proposed ordinance to clarify overhangs and eaves allowed
to encroach setbacks
I would like to take advantage of this opportunity when revising
the code regarding the above, to also include other miscellaneous
structures that the Planning and Zoning Department, as well as the
Building Division, has encountered. These structures are either
not addressed in our code, or are unclear, and need to be included
as they are in other jurisdictions' codes. I have read Mr.
Hukill's suggestion to address the house eaves, and although option
3 will suffice, it would assist us all if we took the following
approach:
Under City of Boynton Beach Code of Ordinances, Part III - Land
Development Regulations, Chapter 2 - Zoning, Section 4.J. OTHER
STRUCTURES, add the new subsections 7 through 26 below -
7. Arbors and trellises, provided that there shall be maintained
a minimum three (3) foot setback from property line. In
addition there shall be a maximum height of 10 feet.
8. Permanent or retractable awnings, canopies, marquees or
covered walkways projecting from a building wall over a
required yard setback not more than two and one-half (2~)
feet, and having no supports other than provided by the wall
or its integral part.
9. Chimneys projecting not more than three (3) feet into the
required yard setback.
10. Fire escapes or unenclosed staircases, the riser of which
shall be at least fifty (50) percent open, provided that the
vertical projection downward onto a required yard setback
shall not project more than five (5) feet into, and shall not
exceed ten (10) percent of, the area of the required yard
setback.
11. Flagpoles having only one structural ground member.
12. Fountains; provided that non-portable fountains shall not
exceed nine (9) feet in height, shall be setback three (3)
feet from side and rear property lines and shall occupy no
more than 100 square feet.
13. Heating, ventilation and air conditioning units (including
compressors and condensers) for s~ngle-family or duplex
dwellings, provided the exhaust a1.r from such units is
directed vertically or away from the adjacent property line.
Heating, ventilation and air conditioning units and intake and
exhaust fans for non-residential uses shall be setback a
minimum of five (5) feet from property line.
14. Mailboxes.
-2-
15. Open terraces, including walkways, unenclosed decks and slabs
and natural plant landscaping.
16. Open, uncovered stoops, steps and platforms for the principal
building, but not to exceed three (3) feet in height.
17. Recreational equipment (of the type not requiring a permit) in
the rear yard setback in residential districts.
18. Sculpture or other similar objects of art, provided they meet
the same requirements above for fountains.
19. Signs, subject to the provisions of the sign code.
20. Trees, shrubbery or other objects of natural growth.
21. Wells.
22. Utility, cable and telephone transmission lines and associated
structures, such as poles.
23. Basketball goals, provided there is a minimum three (3) feet
setback from the rear and side interior property lines and a
minimum fifteen (15) feet setback from front and side street
property lines.
24. Light poles having only one (1) structural ground member.
25. Barbecue pits not to exceed six (6) feet by six (6) feet and
provided they are set back three (3) feet from side and rear
property liI1es.
26. Raised planters, provided they are set back three (3) feet
from side and rear property lines and shall have a maximum
height of six (6) feet.
Lastly, add to existing subsection 3 the underlined words and
delete the struck through words:
3. HouDe Eaves, cornices. qutters. facia boards. copinqs.
soffits. downspouts. belt courses. window sills. widow and/or
door trim. applied finish materials. roof and/or eauipment
vents. sillcocks. fire hose connections. meters. liqht
fixtures. hardware. shutters. bay windows. and ornamental
architectural features shall not overhang or exceed the
setback lines for more than t..,TO (2) three (3) feet.

Based upon what he had to go through, he requested that the lien be reduced to $250.00,
which equals the administrative costs.
Mayor Taylor asked if the original problem was that the buildings were brought in prior to
being permitted on that property. Pastor Sanderson said his plans had been submitted for
cursory review. The buildings were brought in because Pratt Whitney could not store them.
Motion
Mayor Taylor passed the gavel and moved to satisfy the lien with an additional $50.00, for
a total of $250.00. Commissioner Tillman second the motion, which carried 5-0.
3. lllnor SIte Pf8n ModIfIcation for Clear Copy
City Attorney Cherof stated that in September of 1995, the Commission approved a site
plan submitted by Clear Copy. An adjacent property owner, Dr. Mark Roberts, appealed
the Commission's approval of the site plan and raised a number of technical issues with
respect to compliance with the Code. That matter is still pending. A few weeks ago, Clear
Copy indicated that they wished to submit a modified site plan. There is a specific
procedure set forth in Chapler 4 of the Land Development Regulations (Section 9) that
deals with how the City evaluates a request for modification of a site plan. It either makes
a determination that it is a minor modification, which is handled administratively, or it
makes a determination that it is a major modification, in which case it is treated as an
original site plan. Under the terms of our Code, the determination of whether it is minor or
major modification is left to the discretion of the Planning and Zoning Director. In the
backup, there is an analysis made by the Planning and Zoning Director, and the conclusion
that this is a minor modification of the site plan and it is to proceed administratively.
The reason this is before the Commission is because the matter is pending in the Courts
on appeal, and the adjacent property owner, through his attorney, made a request that if
there was to be a determination of a minor versus major modification, that they have the
opportunity to come before the Commission in a public fashion and state their opinion and
have the opportunity to express their opinion to the Commission, perhaps to persuade the
Commission that staff had made the wrong determination in that regard.
Additionally, there was an issue with respect to interpretation of the Code, which is usually
not a matter left to the disaetion of the Commission. Rather, the interpretation of the
Zoning Code is left to the Planning and Zoning Director. That involves an interpretation of
31
MINUTES
REGULAR CITY COMMISSION MEETING
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA
MARCH 19, 1996
Chapter 2, Section 4, Subsection J of the Code, which provides with respect to structures
that house eaves shaH not overhang or exceed the setback lines for more than two feet.
The beginning part of that section indicates that they are talking about structures in all
zoning districts, not speciically residential. Therefore, we construe the words "house
eaves" to mean structure eaves. In fact, Tambri Heyden or William Hukill will explain that
that interpretation has been consistently applied, or at least applied to some degree, by the
Building and Zoning Departments from time to time to include all structures, not simply
residential or house structures.
City Attorney Cherof stated that this matter should be treated as a quasi-judicial
proceeding. At the conclusion of the presentation, all that the Commission is asked to do
is to acknowledge and ratify or endorse the interpretation by Tambri Heyden, or if the
Commission does not agree that the interpretation is correct, to direct her to reconsider it.
Additionally, with regard to the interpretation of the section of the Code that City Attomey
Cherof described regarding the eaves overhanging the setback lines, if the Commission
does not agree with his interpretation, he should be directed to provide an amendment to
the Code to clarify that. At this time, all those who intended to testify this evening were
s~C?rn by City Attorney Cherot.
Ms. Heyden stated that she has been a municipal planner for over ten years. Prior to
coming to the City of Boynton Beach in 1987, she was a planner for the City of
Williamsburg, Virginia. She reviewed Section 9 of the City Site Plan Review Ordinance.
She said there are seven criteria that are spelled out in the Code that are used as
guidelines in making that determination. Using the overhead projector, she displayed an
overlay of the site plan that was approved in September of 1995. She reviewed each
criterion and compared the two site plans to show how she came up with this
determination.
In making a minor/major modification determination, the planning and zoning director shall
consider the following:
1 . Does the modification increase the buildable square footage of the
development by more than 5 percent?
Ms. Heyden displayed the approved site plan and stated that there are two driveways that
were proposed (one an ingress only and one an egress only). The egress only was on 7th
Street. She pointed out the location of the building. It faces Boynton Beach Boulevard.

REGULAR CITY COMMISSION MEETING
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA
MARCH 19, 1996
The square footage of the building has not changed. The parking that is provided is
exactly what is required by Code. There are no surplus parking spaces.
2. Does the modification reduce the provided number of parking spaces below
the required number of parking spaces?
Ms. Heyden advised that there are no changes in the number of parking spaces; just the
location of the parking spaces.
3. Does the modification cause the development to be below the development
standards for the zoning district in which it is located, or other applicable
standards in the Land Development Regulations?
Ms. Heyden stated that this modification does not change, and continues to meet, the C-3
zoning regulations (the building and site regulations). She provided the staff comments
that have been generated on this request, and she used the Technical Review Committee
form to generate these comments, which is unusual. However, in light of the pending
litigation, this was the quickest and most effective way of obtaining those comments for the
Commission this evening. Once compliance with those staff comments has occurred, this
will ensure that all safety and technical concerns, as well as the Code requirements, have
been met.
4. Does the modification have an adverse effect on adjacent or nearby property,
or reduce required physical buffers such as fences, trees, or hedges?
Ms. Heyden stated that the modifications include replacement of the N.W. 1 st Avenue
ingress only driveway for a N. W. 7th Street ingress only driveway. Instead of one driveway
onto 7th Street and one driveway onto 1 st Street, there is an ingress only driveway onto
7th Street and an egress only driveway onto 7th Street. Therefore, both driveways are now
on 7th Street. (There was a change in the driveway locations.)
There has also been a flip-flop of the location of the row of parking spaces with the access
aisle to the spaces. The access aisle was on the east side, and the parking spaces were
on the west side. They have now been reversed.
There has also been a switch of the handicap space location, and window sills have been
added to the building exterior. Regular parking spaces have been switched as well.

BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA
MARCH 19, 1996
The driveway change meets the 10cationaJ requirements of the Code, and does not
negatively affect adjacent properties. The changes to the parking lot and handicap space
are internal to the development and have no affect at all on the adjacent properties.
With regard to reduction of physical buffers, this is consistent with the September approval
wherein the City Commission determined that the existing landscape buffer between
Dr. Roberts' property and the Clear Copy property was acceptable.
5. Does the modification adversely affect the elevation design of the structure
below the standards stated in the Community Design Plan?
Ms. Heyden advised that the windowsills are consistent with the Community Design Plan.
In fact, she felt they enhance the elevation design.
6. Does the modified development meet the concurrency requirements of the
Boynton Beach Comprehensive Plan?
Ms. Heyden advised that the modifications have no impact at all on the previously granted
concurrency certification.
7. Does the modification alter the site layout so that the modified site plan does
not resemble the approved site plan?
Ms. Heyden said this reaJly boils down to assessing magnitude of change, and the
Department has consistently applied this criterion, as evidenced through its quarterly
reporting to the Commission.
Ms. Heyden stated that when you compare the original site plan with the modified site plan,
you will notice the following:
· There has been no change in the building location.
· The same building to parking relationship occurs. (The building is still in the
front, and the parking is still in the rear.)
· There has been one change in the number of driveways or type of driveways
(two-way versus one-way and ingress versus egress).
· The service areas are in the same general location and the method of refuse
collection has also not changed. We are continuing to allow curbside pickup
for the trash as well as the recyclables.

. The degree. quality, quantity, and location of landscaping has not been
changed.
. The type of parking spaces (90 degree, angle, parallel) has not been
changed.
. The location of impervious areas (parking lot, sidewalks, structures) has
virtually not changed.
. The building height, style, type, and use have not changed.
. The utility service modification is to the extent that it has no effect on other
site improvements.
In addition to ratification of her determination of minor modification, she sought a
determination from the Commission regarding the legislative intent when the house eave
section of the Zoning Code was adopted. She asked if it was the intent to allow this
section to apply to commercial buildings. Historically, overhangs on commercial buildings,
if they are detected at the inspection stage, have been allowed and have ranged between
one inch and four inches. They have included such things as the stucco on the buildings
that adds a little volume or depth to the exterior, windowsills, and cornices.
The Clear Copy building's windowsills, cornices, and stucco extend beyond the setback
lines on the north, which is the front, and also the side property line on the east. Her report
indicated three inches, one and a quarter inches, and ten inches, respectively. However,
the applicant has submitted a package to the City Commission this evening. This package
shows some photographs and drawings of the overhang. There is a little confusion about
what the maximum encroadlment or overhang is, ten inches or six inches. On the permit
plans, the section drawing was labeled a ten inch overhang. When we scaled it, it showed
six inches. She believes Mr. Feldman is going to tell the Commission tonight that it is
approximately four inches.
Ms. Heyden requested ratification of the minor modification determination, and a
determination of the Commission's legislative intent on the house overhang application.
Vice Mayor Jaskiewicz asked if there are any other buildings in the area that have a similar
overhang. Ms. Heyden advised that the adjacent building has a similar overhang situation
for gutters.
It seemed to Bob Feldman, the co-owner of Clear Copy, that Dr. Roberts brings up minute
things and makes them major. He reiterated that the original agreement showed a ten inch
overhang. He measured the overhang, and it is six inches. With regard to the parking lot,

MARCH 19, 1996
the handicap spot was too much of a slope at that point. For safety purposes, it was flip-
flopped back to make it a little more accessible. With regard to the color of the building,
Mr. Feldman stated that a tangerine color was approved by the City Commission.
However, after the building was painted, it looked a little more pink than tangerine. He is
currently trying to get that toned down a little. With regard to the color of the windows,
they were painted bronze because the windows on Dr. Roberts' property, Wendy's, etc.,
were bronze. He later found out that they are supposed to be white. He has a choice to
paint them white, which he feels will peel off in six months because the windows are metal.
He has bent over backwards since day one to meet City Code. Even though staff
determined this to be a minor modification which could be handled administratively. it is
before the Commission because of Dr. Roberts. He has been here 21 years. The City has
been excellent to him, but because of litigation involving Dr. Roberts, we are going back
and forth on every little item. Mr. Feldman said he will do whatever the City wants him to
do. He said he originally wanted a flat roof. There would have been no overhang at all.
However, the City required an S-tile roof. Therefore, it has to hang over a little.
Reginald Stambaugh of Miller and Woods, the attorney representing Dr. Mark Roberts,
advised that Dr. Roberts asked him and his mother, Commissioner Carol Roberts, to speak
on,his behalf. He said Dr. Roberts could not attend this meeting because he was only
notified of this minor modification on Friday and aJready scheduled an appointment out of
State. Mr. Stambaugh said practically everything that could be changed was changed,
except the building itself. He said this is a major modification. He did not think there was
good enough notice for him to be prepared to address everything as it has been presented.
He said all we are trying to do is follow the Land Development Regulations. He introduced
Commissioner Roberts.
Mayor Taylor welcomed County Commissioner Roberts to Boynton Beach. Commissioner
Roberts read a letter, dated March 19, 1996, from Mark E. Roberts, D.D.S. to Mayor Taytor
and Commissioners. In this letter, Dr. Roberts states that he believes this is a major site
plan modification. A copy of this letter is attached to these minutes.
Mr. Stambaugh focused on the key points in this letter which he believes would persuade
the Commission to ask staff to reconsider its determination of a minor modification.
Mr. Stambaugh said proper procedure is not being followed in this case. He said if we are
not going to follow the Land Development Regulations, then we should not have them.
The purpose of the Land Development Regulations is to deal effectively with future
problems which may occur as a result of the use and devek>pment of land. In the instant
36

case, we are finding that there are problems being created. We are not following the
purpose in this instance.
Mr. Stambaugh reread the portion of Dr. Roberts' letter which lists the ways in which the
new site plan alters the approved site plan so that it does not resemble the approved site
plan. He stated that the new plans show the need for a land dedication to the City. He
asked if the City staff, by mere determination of a minor. modification site approval, is
approving the City's acceptance of a land dedication. He asked if the City Commission
allows this. He said this is a major modification. He stated that two other points have not
been remedied with this new modification. They are as follows:
1. The fire truck cannot legally access the property. LOR requires safe and
efficient access to be provided for emergency and service vehicles to this
property. This standard has been required of all commercial developments
in the past.
2. City ordinances governing garbage pickup require containerized garbage
pickup. There is a requirement for containerized receptacles for commercial
properties. Section 10-25 states as follows: .Containerized refuse service
shall be carried out by the city at commercial or multifamily residential
establishments in the promotion of improved sanitary conditions...."
Mr. Stambaugh said there is no more containerized commercial collection.
Mr. Stambaugh stated that there has not been an environmental review. Section 11.3 of
the Code states as follows: .... in all cases approval of the environmental review permit
shall precede approval ot the site plan."
Mr. Stambaugh advised that the new plan has not submitted the required irrigation plan.
He was in possession of a report from Gee & Jensen stating that Chapter 481.321 of the
Florida Statutes requires that a licensed landscape architect prepare and sign all
landscape plans unless for a single-family home. The landscape plan was submitted by
an architect and this is contrary to State law. Therefore, the required landscape design is
incomplete. In Gee & Jensen's March 14, 1996 letter to Ms. Heyden, it states as follows:
· There is no landscape buffer proposed at the east side of the parking lot
requiring a variance.
· The dimensions of the parking lot are inconsistent between the site plan and
the construction drawing. In either case, a variance would be required.
37

REGULAR CITY COMMISSION MEETING
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA
MARCH 19, 1996
· These changes are indicative of major plan changes.
Mr. Stambaugh read Dr. Roberts' March 19, 1996 letter addressed to Mayor Taylor and the
Commissioners regarding determination of the legislative intent of the zoning code. A copy
of this letter is attached to these minutes. Mr. Stambaugh advised that Dr. Roberts wants
City staff to take a close look at the Code and comply.
Mr. Stambaugh focused on the following three criteria when determining if a modification
is minor or major:
1 . Does the modification cause the development to be below the development
standards for the zoning district in which it is located, or other applicable
standards in the Land Development Regulations?
Mr. Stambaugh stated that we already have gone over some of the below standard
requirements. It does not meet the Code sections.
2. Does the modification have an adverse effect on adjacent or nearby property
or reduce required physical buffers, such as fences, trees, or hedges?
Mr. Stambaugh stated that there is no buffer. Therefore, a problem exists.
3. Does the modification alter the site layout so that the modified site plan does
not resemble the approved site plan?
Mr. Stambaugh referred toile changes in the parking and access, and the land dedication
to the City without Commission approval. He requested that the Commission deem this
to be a major modification.
Ms. Heyden advised that many of the changes that Mr. Stambaugh mentioned this evening
were necessary to meet the staff conditions of the original approval. Nine times out of ten,
when you approve a site plan, the site plan that gets submitted as part of permitting,
approved subject to staff comments, does not look like the approved site plan. That in and
of itself does not constitute a minor site plan modification. The site plan was approved
subject to staff comments, which included the change in the dumpster to can pickup. Light
pole changes oftentimes mange between site plan approval and permit review because
the photo cell illumination Jians are not required until time of permitting. Oftentimes that
38

BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA
MARCH 19, 1996
requires some adjustment in the light pole locations. The buffer between
Dr. Roberts' property and this property continues to be the same buffer design that was
approved as part of the original approvaJ. which was knowing that the width of the
landscape strip was less than two and a haJf feet. The loading zone was barely shifted in
an east/west direction, but is basically in the same location. This is a very insignificant
change. The driveway has changed from 15 feet to 12 feet This still meets Code and is
a very insignificant change. Cans are considered containerized pickup. An environmental
review has been approved, subject to certain conditions. The conditions and the permit
are not issued until just prior to an occupational license being issued. Irrigation plans are
not required as part of a site plan. They are required as part of the permit review. In
conclusion, Ms. Heyden said the Legal Department informed her that they had notified
Dr. Roberts' personally via a telephone call on March 5th that this was considered a minor
modification and that it would be going before the City Commission on March 19th.
Commissioner Bradley inquired about the land dedication and the fire trucks. William
Hukill, Director of Development, pointed out the land dedication. Sometime in the.past,
because of the vehicular traffic on 7th coming from the fence company on the other side
of the tracks, the radius was made larger. As a result, there is a 21" triangular piece of
land where the sidewalks come together. This has to either be dedicated to the City to
make the sidewalk fit on City property, or an easement or waiver has to be granted.
With regard to access, Ms. Heyden said the Fire Department feels they have adequate
ability to access this property for fire protection.
With regard to accepting a piece of property of any size on behalf of the C'ity Commission
and City, Mr. Stambaugh asked Ms. Heyden if she takes this lightly. Ms. Heyden stated
that that method of resolving that issue was not reviewed by her department. She felt it
would be appropriate to address this question to the Building Department. Mr. Stambaugh
asked the same question of Mr. Hukill. Mr. Hukill indicated that he does not take this
lightly. Mr. Stambaugh felt the City Commission should make the decision regarding the
donation of land, no matter what the size of the property.
Mr. Stambaugh asked for the Code Section that deals with trash cans/containers.
Ms. Heyden did not have a Code book in front of her. She stated that the City allows can
pickup as well as dumpsters for trash collection. Mr. Stambaugh felt you need to take extra
care with commercial properties. He said the Code spells out what a container is, and he
left it to City Commission to make that determination. Section 10-25 states as follows:
"Containerized refuse service shall be carried out by the city at commercial or multifamily
39

REGULAR CITY COMMISSION MEETING
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA
MARCH 19, 19%
residential establishments...." Mr. Stambaugh said there is a contrast between 10-25 and
10-24 (residential noncontainerized collection), which appears to be regular garbage
collection.
With regard to the buffer zone, Mr. Stambaugh said just because the Code was not in
compliance the first time. does not mean that it should not be in compliance the second
time under an application for modification. Mr. Stambaugh requested the Commission to
follow the Code and consider this a major modification.
Ms. Heyden said the Commission has previously approved. in special cases, under certain
circumstances, can pickup for commercial properties. Also, we have followed the Code,
and by allowing this minor site plan modification in no way jeopardizes anything in the Land
Development Regulations. Over the past five years, we have been very consistent in
applying what is a minor modification and what is a major modification. This is nothing
more than we have done in the past.
Mr. Stambaugh stated that the Land Development Regulations spell out everything. City
staff was supplied with Gee & Jenson's reports. If the City Commission does not feel that
th~y have done any wrong, we are going to have to let the Courts decide this matter.
City Attorney Cherof stated that Mr. Stambaugh has invited the Commission to substitute
its opinion for the opinion of the Planning and Zoning Director, and to make a
determination that this is a major site plan modification. That would be in violation of the
Code. One of the provisions of the Code gives the Planning and Zoning Director the
discretion to interpret the Code. There is recourse to Dr. Roberts through the Code as
well. There is a provision in the Code that states that if any aggrieved party does not like
the interpretation of the Planning and Zoning Director on any issue, that they have
recourse to the Board of Zoning Appeals. The aggrieved party may obtain a reversal from
the Board of Zoning Appeafs of the interpretation of the Code by the Planning and Zoning
Director. The Code does not always address each and every issue specifically on point.
That is why the Planning and Zoning Director has the power to make interpretation. The
Commission does not have the power to override the opinion of the Planning and Zoning
Director in interpreting the Code. The matter is before the Commission to listen to all of
this and suggest to the Planning and Zoning Director that she may want to reconsider it,
but the Commission cannot require her to do that and cannot override her.
With respect to the other issue regarding the interpretation of the overhang issue, City
Attorney Cherof said that is an interpretation that staff has made. The same recourse is
40
MINUTES
REGULAR CITY COMMISSION MEETING
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA
MARCH 19, 1996
available to Dr. Roberts if he does not agree that that is the proper interpretation of the
Code by the paid professional administrators of the Code. Dr. Roberts has recourse to
the Board of Zoning Appeals. City Attorney Cherot stated that they are wrong with respect
to telling you that their recourse is to the court. There is an administrative remedy available
to them. It is built into the Code to specifically avoid putting people in the position where
they have to go to court to make their points of interpretation known to the advisory boards
then to the Commission. He suggested that if the Commission believes the Planning and
Zoning Director has made the proper interpretation, or wishes not to interfere with that
interpretation be it correct or incorrect, the Commission needs do nothing. The
Commission can simply ratify her interpretation.
With respect to the overhang issue, City Attorney Cherof stated that the only reason that
is before the Commission is if the Commission does not believe that staff has been
properly interpreting that in applying it to commercial properties, the Commission needs
to tell him so that he can cJarity that provision of the Code.
Commissioner Bradley asked it the ratification is accomplished through silence or through
a motion. City Attorney Cheraf said it could be by either. Mr. Stambaugh had a difference
of legal opinion on the interpretation of that clause. He believes a ratification constitutes
an action by the City Commission which would essentially override any of the actions which
the administration or City staff would be making. He said if this process is going to go
through as a minor modification, then it should be treated as a minor modification. City
Attorney Cherof took it from this comment that Mr. Stambaugh is asking the Commission
not to take any action. Mr. Stambaugh said we have had an opportunity to speak on this
issue, and we are requesting that the City Commission take the action of deeming this a
major modification. City Attorney Cherof advised the City Commission that it does not
have the power to do that.
George Wasser, a practicing architect for 33 years, State Threshold Inspector, and
Licensed General Contractor in the State of Florida, has been a resident here and in
operation here for about 23 years. He stated that he was called in some time ago as a
consultant for Clear Copy, to review some of the comments, look at the property, and see
if there was anything of merit in these complaints. He checked the property and made a
few recommendations. Later, he found out that the City had already made those
comments. Mr. Wasser found the items that Mr. Stambaugh brought up to be the same
kind of rhetoric that he read in Gee & Jenson's report. He said it ignores a lot of things.
There is simple, logical reasoning behind all of the City comments and approvals. In his
experience as a professional, he totally agreed with the Building Department and the

Planning Department. He also agreed with City Attorney Cherof that there is a discretion
involved in everything, and not everything is definable. That is why we have staff to
interpret and enforce the intent of the Code. He believes that has been done here.
Ciro Gomez, President of Giro Gomez Inc., is a general contractor. He had the opportunity
to build Dr. Roberts' building, and found the City to be very cooperative. He said he was
sure that if he was to go back and review Dr. Roberts' building and found that one of the
setbacks was 15 feet, that he would have to shave off all the stucco because at the time
when the surveys were done to determine setback requirements, only cement block is up,
not stucco, bands, or any other exterior applications to enhance the building. He also said
that an eave to him, as a builder and professional, is a projection from a building that will
protect you from sun or rain, or could possibly be enclosed and enlarge the area of the
building without getting a building permit. He said what we have here is something that
was done within the original scale dimension by City staff and it was reduced by 40 percent
and still accommodates a requirement of cross ventilation for this particular building. He
has the task of building this building, but needs some direction. The eave was built. His
trusses and overhangs were inspected and passed. It was not until an objection was
raised in regard to the eaves that he was given a red tag. The projection from the stucco
b(\lnd out is only two inches to accommodate this particular screen venting. We are not
looking at rain protection. He cannot see them later trying to enclose underneath that
eave. With regard to the color of the windows, the intent was to maintain a more
traditional, conservative, Mediterranean look. Bronzed window frames would enhance the
building much more than white window frames.
Vice Mayor Jaskiewicz stated that the word "house" in Section 4 seems to be causing a
problem. She suggested changing that word to "building- to avoid any misinterpretation
in the future.
Mayor Taylor said this is about the third time he has been through this matter in detail, and
he did not hear much that he had not heard previously. He said he has considered every
single one of these comments over and over again. He felt the Commission addressed
them adequately. He did not think anybody ever took it trivial. He felt staff were
perfectionists. He respected Dr. Roberts' opinion. He felt that staff has addressed many
of the items that Dr. Roberts had brought up. He felt a lot has been done to address some
of Dr. Roberts' concerns. He said Dr. Roberts' made it clear the very first time he appeared
before the Commission that he did not want this building to go up under any
circumstances. Mayor Taylor was comfortable with staWs recommendation. He felt we are
doing this within our Codes and in many cases, exceeding the Code.

';Agenda Memorandum for
March 19, 1996 City Commission Meeting
TO: Carrie Parker
City Manager
FROM: Tambri J. Heyden
Planning and Zoning Director
DATE: March 15, 1996
SUBJECT: Clear Copy, Inc. - MMSP #96-03-003
(Minor site plan modification for parking lot and
building design changes and request for overhang
determination)
Please place under Legal - Other, on the March 19, 1996 City
Commission agenda, discussion of 1) a minor site plan modification
that has been submitted for Clear Copy and 2) Commission
legislative intent for commercial building overhangs as it relates
to the pending RHS Corporation v. City of Boynton Beach case.
INTRODUCTION
On September 19, 1995, the City Commission approved, subject to
comments, the site plan request for Clear Copy; a new print shop to
be located at the southeast corner of Boynton Beach Boulevard and
N.W. 7th Street (660 W. Boynton Beach Boulevard) - see attached
Planning and Zoning Department Memorandum No. 96-142 - Exhibit A
for location map. RHS Corporation subsequently filed a Notice of
Administrative Appeal to appeal through the circuit court system
the City's decision to approve Clear Copy's site plan. RHS owns
and occupies the abutting property immediately east of Clear Copy's
parcel. There is a medical/dental office building located on this
abutting property. Since the September approval, the applicant has
moved forward with construction permits and the building is
currently under construction and nearing completion.
On February 27, 1996, I received from the city engineer, William
Hukill, a memorandum notifying the department that the applicant
for Clear Copy had submitted, through permitting and in response to
Mr. Hukill's request for a code compliance certification, a site
plan drawing showing several modifications to the permit that had
been previously approved for Clear Copy's site improvements. For
expediency and simplification, all applicants are allowed to submit
modifications directly through the permitting application process
for determination of minor vs. major change or may submit
modifications directly to the Planning and Zoning Department, with
a letter describing the changes (although we have also allowed
modification plans to be evaluated for determination by meeting
with Planning and Zoning Department staff).
Since the development is the subject of pending litigation, city
policy requires staff to notify the legal department of any actions
related to pending litigation. Such notification occurred and on
March 4, 1996, the legal department advised staff of the following:
a) that the City Commission be apprised, expeditiously (at their
next available meeting), of the minor site plan modification
that has been submitted;
b) that the City Commission ratify staff's determination and
c) that the RHS Corporation be notified that the modified site
plan will be presented to the Commission at this meeting.
As previously discussed with you, on March 8, 1996, the legal
department filed a Motion for Extension of Time with the circuit
court regarding the subject case. Reference in the motion was made
TO: Carrie Parker
-2-
March IS, 1996
indicating that the modified site plan would come before the City
Commission at their March 19, 1996 meeting. On or about March 5,
1996, the legal department notified the RHS Corporation that the
minor site plan modification would be discussed at the March 19th
Commission meeting. In addition, copies of this memorandum will be
provided to the RHS Corporation, specifically Dr. Mark E. Roberts,
today, after transmittal of this memorandum to you.
It is the Planning and Zoning Department's responsibility to
determine which departments review minor site plan modifications
and to inform the applicant of the completeness of his submittal.
After receipt of engineering plans to accompany the modified site
plan received, staff distributed the submittal to the Technical
Review Committee (TRC) for comments and placed the request on the
agenda of the next available TRC meeting (March 12, 1996). It is
noted that the standard method for obtaining comments from
designated TRC members for minor site plan modifications is by
telephone request to review plans held in the Building Division.
However, the TRC meeting forum was used in this case due to the
pending litigation and to more quickly and effectively assemble the
attached materials for the March 19th Commission meeting.
The modifications are described in the attached Planning and Zoning
Department Memorandum #96-142 and are illustrated in the attached
copy of the modified site plan (Planning and Zoning Department
Memorandum #96-142 Exhibit B). After comparison with the
September 1995 approved site plan (copy provided in attached
Planning and Zoning Department Memorandum #96-142 - Exhibit B),
these modifications have been determined to be minor in nature and
can, therefore, be approved administratively through the permit
process. For clearer Commission understanding of the modifications
requested, the original site plan staff report has been attached
and revised to reflect the changes. Also attached in Planning and
Zoning Department Memorandum No. 96-142 - Exhibit C is a list of
all administrative comments that condition this minor site plan
modification approval. For reference purposes, the applicable
sections of the Boynton Beach Land Development Regulations (Part
III of the Boynton Beach Code of Ordinances) used to determine the
processing of a modification to an approved site plan are provided
below. Following each criterion, staff's conclusion is included
and appears in brackets:
"Section 9. Modification of approved site plan.
C. In making a minor/major modification determination, the
planning and zoning director shall consider the
following:
1. Does the modification increase the buildable square
footage of the development by more than five (5)
percent." [No change in the size of the building
is requested.]
2. "Does the modification reduce the provided number
of parking spaces below the required number of
parking spaces." [No change in the number of
parking spaces is requested.]
3. "Does the modification cause the development to be
below the development standards for the zoning
district in which it is located or other applicable
standards in the Land Development Regulations."
[The modification does not change, and continues to
meet, the C-3 zoning district development standards
(building and site regulations). In addition,
compliance with the attached staff comments will
ensure that all safety and technical concerns, as
well as code requirements, have been addressed.]
TO: Carrie Parker
-3-
March 15, 1996
4. "Does the modification have an adverse effect on
adjacent or nearby property or reduce required
physical buffers, such as fences, trees, or
hedges." [The modifications include replacement of
the N. W. 1st Avenue ingress only driveway for a
N.W. 7th Street ingress only driveway, a flip-flop
of the location of the row of parking spaces with
the access aisle to the parking spaces, switching
of the handicapped space location, addition of
window sills to the building exterior. The
building exterior modification does not lessen the
appearance of the building. In fact, the change
lends a more finished look to the building, making
it more compatible with the exterior appearance of
adjacent buildings. The driveway change meets code
locational requirements and does not negatively
affect adjacent properties. The parking lot "flip-
flop" and handicapped space change are internal to
the development and have no negative impact
(virtually no impact at all) on adjacent
properties; nor do they diminish the function of
the parking lot.
With regard to reduction of physical buffers, the
modifications do not diminish the degree of
buffering afforded by the September 1995 approved
site plan. No change in the landscaping proposed
as part of the original site plan approval for the
area between the Clear Copy parking lot and Dr.
Roberts' parking lot is requested, consistent with
the September 19, 1995 city determination that this
landscape buffer is acceptable.]
5. "Does the modification adversely affect the
elevation design of the structure below the
standards stated in the community design plan."
[The modification to the elevation design of the
structure. meets the community design plan and as
stated in criterion 4 above, the building exterior
modification does not lessen the appearance of the
building. In fact, the change lends a more
finished look to the building, making it even more
compatible with the exterior appearance of adj acent
buildings. ]
6. "Does the modified development meet the concurrency
requirements of the Boynton Beach Comprehensive
Plan." [The modifications have no impact on the
previously granted concurrency certification.]
7. "Does the modification alter the site layout so
that the modified site plan does not resemble the
approved site plan." [This criterion grants a
certain degree of staff authority and requires
application of judgement and common sense to assess
the magnitude of change. Consistent application of
this criterion is apparent through the quarterly
reporting to the Commission of site plan waivers
and minor modifications processed by the
department. When magnitude of change and
similarity, or lack thereof, is evaluated between
the approved site plan and the modification, the
following comparisons are noted:
a) no change in building location;
TO: Carrie Parker
-4-
March 15, 1996
b) same building to parking relationship -
building in front, parking in rear;
c) no change in number of driveways or type
of driveways (two-way vs. one-way and
ingress vs. egress);
d) service areas are in same general
location and method of refuse collection
(curbside pick-up for trash and
recyclables) is unchanged;
e) degree, quality, quantity and location of
landscaping is unchanged;
f) type of parking spaces is unchanged;
g)
location of impervious
lot, sidewalks and
virtually unchanged.
areas (parking
structures) is
h) building height, style, type and use are
unchanged; and
i) utility service modifications are to the
extent that they have no effect on other
site improvements.
Therefore, based on the above evaluation, staff concluded that the
changes requested constitute a minor site plan modification and
meet the following definition of minor modification: "a non-
impacting modification which will have no adverse effect on the
approved site and development plan and no impact upon adjacent and
nearby properties, and no adverse aesthetic impact when viewed from
a public right-of-way as determined by the planning and zoning
director" .
In addition to ratification of staff's action on the modified site
plan, the legal department advised that staff seek from the
Commission a determination of their legislative intent when
adopting the following section of the city's zoning code:
Section 4. General Provisions.
J. Other Structures. The following structures shall
be permitted in front, rear or side setbacks as
provided in this ordinance, in any zone, except
where so noted; taking into consideration existing
easements:
3. House eaves shall not overhang or exceed
the setback lines for more than two (2)
feet.
Specifically the question is whether commercial buildings are
allowed to overhang into setbacks, so long as the overhang does not
exceed two feet. The Development Department states that
historically overhangs of commercial buildings have been allowed,
at time of inspection, to exceed the setback lines. These
overhangs, which include building surface treatments, as well as
window sills and cornices, have been reported to range from one
inch to six inches.
This determination is necessary because the tie-in survey submitted
for the Clear Copy building indicates a 10 inch overhang into the
front (north) and east side setbacks. Clear Copy's window sills,
plaster, raised stucco bands and the cornice extend beyond the
TO: Carrie Parker
-5-
March IS, 1996
setback by three inches, 1 1/4 inches and 10 inches respectively.
The window sills were not part of the original approval and the
cornice was extended a greater distance than originally planned in
order to add roof ventilation; a design detail that is not
considered until the construction drawing stage - after time of
site plan approval.
CONCLUSION
In conclusion, two actions are requested by the Commission as
follows:
a) ratification of staff's action to process the submitted
modifications as a minor site plan modification and
b) a determination as to whether the Commission's action
when approving the zoning code included various
commercial building features to be treated as house
eaves, thereby permitting such features on commercial
buildings to extend into the setback by no more than two
feet.

proposed development and facilitate the permit review.
All comments and recommendations can be rectified on the plans at
time of permitting if the site plan request is approved. The
applicant must understand that additional comments may be generated
upon review of the documents and working drawings submitted to the

RE:
CLEAR COpy - MINOR SITE PLAN REVIEW
We have reviewed the February 16, 1996 site plan for subject location as shown on sheet ST-l (as
revised March 5, 1996) and feel that it is in substantial conformance with any reasonable
interpretation of the City's Land Development Regulations. We understand that the plan is to go
before the Commission next week and we recommend that the City Commission approve the
project as submitted and authorize execution ofthe site work including, but not limited to,
remaining deviations from the Land Development Regulations, if any, and satisfaction of the
following comments:
1. Certification by the applicant's Design Professional that the work, when completed,
will conform with all codes, ordinances, rules, regulations, and City Commission
approvals.
2. Elimination of dimensional variations between Davis drawings and Smith
drawings.
3. Restriping ofNW 7th Street as directed.
4. Dedication of property occupied by small portion of sidewalk infringing on
southwest comer of site.

DATE:
RE:
CI.EAR COpy - SITE PLAN REVIEW
Applicant Feldman has submitted a slightly modified site plan in response to a request for
compliance certification from this office. We have no objections to the suggested minor
modifications and recommend that you waive formal review-as allowed under LDR Chapter 4,
Section 2C with the following two conditions:
I. The submission by the applicant of certification from a Florida registered Architect
or Engineer that the work complies with all laws. ordinances. rules, regulations,
etc. and will be constructed in conformance therewith.
2. Submission of a permanent easement or other property transfer document
acceptable to the City Attorney for the piece of sidewalk at the SW property
corner containing sidewalk pavement.
With respect to the Haag comments regarding failure of the adjacent property owner to comply
with buffer requirements wherein his (the neighbor's) buffer is a few inches less than the required
width, please refer to the opinion of the City Attorney (presented orally to the City Commission in
public session) that this applicant is not responsible to correct his neighbor's error, and therefore
need not provide the missing narrow strip. Please also recall that the site plan was approved by
the City Commission subsequent to th.lt rendering of opinion, but without a buffer condition.
We will not allow sitework to proceed until our two conditions are met.
