BACKGROUND The subject property, Fidelity Federal Bank, is located on the southwest corner of Woolbright Road and Corporate Drive, see Exhibit "A" - Location Map. The property is zoned C-1, Office and Professional Commercial District. The subject site contains a bank. There is an existing sign on the property advertising the Fidelity Federal bank. The location of this sign is along the northern frontage facing Woolbright Road, approximately 85 feet west of the western line of the Corporate Drive right-of-way, see Exhibit "B" - Survey, The setback of the sign is 5 feet. The sign was constructed on the northern embankment of a drainage swale. The swale extends from the western driveway to the property to the decorative entry walls located at the northeast corner of the property, see Exhibit "C" - Site Plan. The existing drainage swale does not allow the sign to be located 10 feet from the northern property line, as per the issued permit. The sign was adjusted in the field without the city's approval in a non-conforming location with a setback of approximately 5 feet. Subsequently, the property owner was cited by the City. Therefore, the property owner filed a sign variance application was filed with the City, see Exhibit "0" - Application. I / I i Page 2 Memorandum No. 97-502 Fidelity Federal - sign variance Case No. 240 -staff report The following is a description of the zoning districts and land uses of the properties that surround the subject property: North - Right-of-way of Woolbright Road and farther north is a Racetrac gas station in the Shoppes of Woolbright peD. East - Right-of-way of Corporate Drive and farther east is undeveloped land, zoned C-3. West - Palm Beach Leisureville residential development, zoned R-1AA and undeveloped land zoned C-1. South - Boynton Commerce Park PID. ANAL YSIS The City of Boynton Beach Land Development Regulations, Chapter 21 - Signs, Section 5, Article III, sets out the following requirements for signs setbacks: "All signs must meet a minimum ten (10) foot setback measured from the property line to the closest surface of the sign. " Article II, Section 1,A of Chapter 21 states that the Board may grant sign variances to: " Allow a setback less than that required under the chapter. " The existing drainage swale, located just south of the monument sign prevents the sign to be located with a required setback of 10 feet from the northern property line. Since the swale extends along the entire frontage of Woolbright Road between the northern driveway and the southern corner of the property, and contains landscaping and entry walls, no alternative location for the sign conforming to setback requirements can be found. These circumstances, according to the petitioner, present a hardship that is further elaborated in Exhibit "E" - Statement of Special Conditions. The code states that zoning code variances cannot be approved unless the board finds the following: a. That special conditions and circumstances exist which are peculiar to the land, structure, or building involved and which are not applicable to other lands, structures or buildings in the same zoning district. :j '~ Page 3 Memorandum No. 97-502 Fidelity Federal - sign variance Case No, 240 -staff report b, That the special conditions and circumstances do not result from the actions of the applicant. c. That granting the variance requested will not confer on the applicant any special privilege that is denied by this ordinance to other lands, buildings, or structures in the same zoning district, d. That literal interpretation of the provisions of this ordinance would deprive the applicant of rights commonly enjoyed by other properties in the same zoning district under the terms of the ordinance and would work unnecessary and undue hardship on the applicant. e. That the variance granted is the minimum variance that will make possible the reasonable use of the land, building, or structure. f. That the grant of the variance will be in harmony with the general intent and purpose of this chapter [ordinance] and that such variance will not be injurious to the area involved or otherwise detrimental to the public welfare. Unlike other development applications, the code does not require staff to make a recommendation regarding whether an applicant meets the above criteria warranting a variance to the city's ordinance, If the Planning and Development Board and City Commission will impose conditions of approval, they will be included in Exhibit "F" - Conditions of Approvals. xc: Central File \\CH\MAIN\SHRDA T A \Planning\SHARED\WP\PROJECTS\Fidelity Federal Bank\staff rep-240-fid-fed.doc :~ -,-/ EXHIBIT IIAI.

The existing double-faced monument sign, which is the subject of the variance request, was installed within the minimum 10- foot street setback in order to avoid interfering with the existing drainage swale that extends east-west along the roadway buffer. Placing the monument sign outside the 10-foot setback would have resulted in the sign being located deeper wi thin the slope of the existing swale. B. The monument sign was not installed to the design specifications of the property owner. A decision in the field was made by the sign contractor to locate the sign outside of the existing drainage swale, thus causing an encroachment of 3 feet into the required 10-foot setback. C. Approval of the requested variance will not confer on the applicant any special privilege. The monument sign could be physically relocated outside the 10-foot required setback, but doing so would interfere with the existing drainage swale and constitute a finacial hardship on the applicant. D. The city zoning code permits the type and size of the existing monument sign on the subject property. In addition, commercial centers within the city commonly enjoy the same usage of monument signs along their property lines. The 10-foot setback requirement, if strictly enforced in this instance, would result in an unnecessary and undue hardship on the applicant by requiring the relocation of a sign that otherwise conforms to standards established by the city zoning code. E. The requested variance of 5 feet is the minimum variance that will make possible the reasonable use of the structure. F. Granting of the variance will not adversely affect the general health, safety and welfare of the public nor be injurious to the area. Furthermore, the requested variance is deemed consistent wi th the general intent and purpose of the city I s zoning code and is in harmony with the commercial character of the area. , ./' / -'-, EXHIBIT "F" //; DEVELOPMENT ORDER CITY OF BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA PROJECT NAME: Fidelity Federal Bank APPLICANT: Kevin McGinley APPLICANT'S AGENT: Kevin McGinley APPLICANT'S ADDRESS: 1300 N.

Trester that the Board's next meeting would be on October 25. Mr. Howell asked if Mr. Trester would have to come back if they determined the lot faced on 2nd street and Chairman Aranow replied that ~~. Howell could inform the Board of this and the application could be with- drawn. Parcel ~1 - Lots 1 thru 21 and Lots 38 thru 41 Block 3, Boynton Heights Rev. Plat Recorded in Plat Book 10, Page 64 Palm Beach County Records Req~est - Relief from 40 ft. setback requirement on Seacrest Blvd. to 23 ft. 7 in. setback to conform to existing building line Improvement - Addition to existing building Applicant - First United ~ethodist Church Address - 101 N. Seacrest Blvd. Mr. Gordon read the above application and advised it was re- quested to ma.ke an addition to the present building to make it more functional without going beyond the building line which is non-conforming by the latest zoning requirements. ~T. Robert Alan Black stated his na~e and his address as 115 N. Federal Highway and advised that he was the architect re- presenting First United Methodist Church. He presented an engineering survey to the Board. Mr. Black then ex~lained a colored plan and pointed out that the 23 ft. 7 in. setback referred to the northeast corner of the building. Chairman Aranow questioned the actual distance and Mr. Black replied that from the closest point, it would be 25 ft. Chairman Aranow questioned plans to widen Seacrest Blvd. and Mr. Howell informed him that according to the County engineer- ing drawings, when Seacrest is widened, it will encroach 7 ft. on this property. Mr. Black continued and advised that this building has been here for over 30 years and they are asking to comply with the line which exists. All the parking is in the rear. It is a historic building. They only want to mal:e it functional. It will match the character of the existing bUilding. ~~. Bailey asked if he could get the permit if the corner was 25 ft. from the road and ~~. Black replied that it must be 40 ft. He added that the setback was changed to 40 ft. in 1975. They are not going to infringe upon it any more than already. If the County was going to take the bUilding, they would not even consider this. MINUTES BOARD OF ADJUSTj{SNT S~FT~~ffiER 27, 1976 :;:AGE SIX Mr. Rutter as~:ed wh3.t tne wi.dth Df Seacrest would eventually be and Mr. Howell replied: 30 ft. >Ir. Rutter questioned if it would be hazardous and >T. Howell referred to them not extending and eXflained how he did not thinJc tnere Vlould be a vision problem.

Gordon read this application heard on November 4, 1974. Chairman Aranow advised that a question had been raised about the parking and he read the minutes from this me8ting when ~1r. Healy made a statement with reference to the park- ing, but ~ointed out that the actual motion was to approve the application. He stated that as far as he is concerned, when this appeared before the Board of Adjustment on Novem- ber 4, 1974, the variance was granted without any conditions of any kind and a side remark by Mr. Healy did not impose any conditions. This is what he ascertains from reading the minutes. Yll'. Rutter questioned why it was before the Board of Adjust- ment now and Chairman Aranow informed him there had been a question raised regarding the parking and probably because of this statement. However, as far as he is concerned, it is not part of the motion. ~~. Howell added that he just wanted clarification. There was some discussion. Mr. Ampol moved to abide by the decision made in 1974 by the previous Board of Adjustment that a variance has been granted. ~r. Ward seconded the motion. ~ll's. Fruse took a roll call vote as follows: MINUTES BOArtD OF ADJUS T:<:r~I'T S~~F"::E>3~R 27, 1976 ?l~GE EIGIIT Mr. Boeltz - Aye ~1r. 5ailey - Aye ~tr. Ward - Aye ~~. Thomrson - Aye ~r.

Chairman Aranow clarifi8d that in case there was any ques- tion, they have taken into consideration what was discussed on the question of parYing and the variance was granted with- out any ter~s whatsoever. ~~. Howell referred to the dimen- sions given of the structure on the a~plication and asked if he could abide b.-.- that and Hr. Thompson replied that nothing had changed. Chairman Aranow then gave the plan to Mrs. Yruse to return to Mrs. Padgett. OTHER BUSINESS Chairman ~ranow referred to a letter dated September 21 from the City Attorney to >!r. rohl, City Manager, and ascertained that every me~ber had received a copy. He then stated he would like to discuss it. He asked if he was correct that according to this letter, the rule of the Josephson Case still remains the law insofar as the City of B~ynton Beach and the Soard of Adjustment and Mr. S~odish agreed this was their opinion. Mr. Bailey agreed that this letter answered his question and added that he believed the minutes were mis- construed and his motion was to have a ruling. Chairman Aranow asked if there were any questions regarding use variances and Mr. Thompson referred to the disturbing question in M~. Nutter's case being that he ap;lied to the Planning & Zoning Board the following night after the Board of Adjustment meeting. The Planning & Zoning Board then made this change as requested in a certain zone. He under- stands that the legal opinion is that they have the right to do this. This was discussed further. Chairman Aranow then referred to the procedure of submitting the plans to the Planning & Zoning Board and to the City Council for approval and questioned how someone got the authority to go back to the Planning & Zoning Board? The actual procedure was discussed further. Chairman Aranow referred to how this change actually down- graded the City by permitting manufacturing in the C-4 zone. ~~. Howell explained how the City was fairly limited in the M-1 zones and had an over-abundance of C-4 zones and the City Planner and Planning & Zoning Board were trying to change some uses to get a proper looking City. MINUTES BOARD OF ADJUS T:'SrT Sl::l-'TElm.:~R 27, 1976 PAGE ;.; Il~:C: Y'x. Boeltz referred to hov: Vi!'. Nutter v;e:J.t from 'Soard to Board and Mr. Howell exnlained that he was trying to exhaust all the Boards a~d he believes his aDDl~cation was made to the ?lanning & Zoning B02rd before coming to the Board of Adjustment. ?1r. 30eltz d".sagre:_d a~d referred to ':;r. Nutter me~tioningthat he had been turned down by the Flanning & Zoning :Soard a~d was referred to the Board of Adjust~ent and then went bac~: to the ?lanning g( Zoning Board. With reference to grantiilg use vari9.ilces, Hr. Howell referred to the Board of Adjustment being able to do this and read Page 4~i, Paragraph C. Chairman Aranow disagreed and stated that every exception was tal.:en out upon which the Board could pass. ~tr. Howell adced that these would not come before the Board any more based on the City Attorney's recent ruling. Mr. Smodish clarified that he was called on the day this Board met regarding their acting on a use variance and his statement was that the Board could act based on what the zoning ordinance book stated. However, since a question was raised, he has researched it and it is a ~atter of interpre- ta tion. ~,rr. Howell added that the book must be changed. Chairman Aranow questioned again where the authority came for an applicant to go back before the Planning & Zoning Board. He referred to buildings being built different than plans and gave Village Royale on the Green and some other houses as examples. There was further discussion and ~~. Howell advised that they must pr0ve the builder willfully violated the laws. He also explained the present plan check system and how they hoped to eliminate problems such as these. ~i!r. Ward then referred to the five cases talren away from the 'Soard over a year ago and permits were issued admini- stratively. Mr. Howell replied that he had researched these and these five people should not have come before this Board, as the Planning & Zoning Board changed the zoning regulations. He explained how they could not deny a man the right to build on his property as long as the original zoning allowed it and the present setbacks were met. Mr. Ward referred to the Dekker application and how the Board had turned down his application for a duplex, but he built a single family house after the zoning was changed. Mr. Howell replied that he was not familiar with this and clar- ified further how the law applied. Chairman Aranow requested Mr. Smodish to send him a photo- static copy of the case cited in his letter. Chairman Aranow clarified that it had been ruled that the Board of Adjustment does not have the right to change use. ~INUTES BOARD OF ADJUST!"1ENT s:~ 1. T-S~-J3ER 27, 1 976 PAGE TEN Mr. Ward asl-ed if they were operating fully und8r state Statute Chapter 1631 They discussed how they were operating under the City Ordinance and the State Statute. ;'1r. lj'lard referred to the statute stating that this 50ard will act with the Planning & Zonir..g Board on s.:.ecial exce;.tions a:_d ;.:r. Smodish replied that this was not ~n the code. There ~as further discussion reg~rding the o;eraticn per the code and Statute. Chairman Aranow then referred to pro~osed Ordinances 76-46 ar.d 76-47 and questioned how they applied to the Board of Adjust>ncnt? Mr. S;;lodish replied that there v:as not any reference to the Board -f Adjustment, but that t~ese ~er- tained only to the Planning & Zoning Soard and City Council regarding exceptions. Mr. Howell agreed they did not have anything to do with the Board of Adjust~ent and explained how the City Planner was trying to get so~e control of con- ditional uses in the C-4 zone. Chairman Aranow questioned whether these ordinances were trying to modify the Jose~hson Case and ~~. Howell explained how they were concerned with certain C-4 areas and trying to obtain some control. Chair- man Aranow replied that po~sibly the Board of Adjustment is not needed and >1r. 30well disagreed. Chairman Aranow then suggested changing the zoning law and refc:rred again to how he felt it was being downgraded. They discussed further the VeL ious zones and permi tted uses. Chairman Aranow then announced that he has been considering handing in his re~ignation as Chairman of the two ad-hoc committees. He referred to the Planning & Zoning Board not getting together with the Board of Adjustment and the Council's Ad-Hoc Committee not having any power. }1r. A~pol questioned the problem and Chairman Aranow explained how they had been fromised certain rights and powers. He further explained how they were not getting the cooperation they had been promised. Mr. Smodish then advised that Mr. Reed had asl-ed him to in- form the Board that he was in the process of revising the Board of Adjustment section and he would like input from the Board whether they want or should have the power to grant use v~1ances per the Clark Case. Chairman Aranow requested that he give a copy of this case to Mrs. Padgett and request that a copy be given to each member of the Board and Hr. Howell together with a cover letter from him and they will review it. Adjournment t~. Ampol moved to adjourn, seconded by Mr. Boeltz. Mr. Boeltz also thanked the attorney for being present.

Approve i-year extension to annual contract for G.A.L.A. concessions to San Francisco Puffs & Stuff, Inc. (Proposed Resolution No. R97-175) Mayor Taylor recalled that he received inquiries or complaints last year about concessions that can and cannot participate in G.AL.A He questioned whether the City relinquishes the right to make that decision by giving the contract to San Francisco Puffs & Stuff, Inc. .' Charles Frederick, Recreation & Park Director, said the contract requires that San Francisco Puffs & Stuff, Inc. provide 10 to 15 professional vending operations and 5 to 10 nonprofit concession operations. The City has the final say as to what they provide in terms of the concession operation. Mayor Taylor questioned whether a private hot dog vendor would be allowed to participate. Mr. Frederick stated that San Francisco Puffs & Stuff has the right to determine the private vendors. The City approves the type of food sold, and we make sure there is no duplication of products. We submit a list of nonprofit groups that want to participate, and approve those groups. Mayor Taylor said another complaint he received dealt with serving Coca-Cola. Mr. Frederick said the Kiwanis Club has the exclusive rights to the sale of soda beverages. Other con"'cessionaires can sell iced tea, lemonade. coffee. etc. Mayor Taylor questioned whether there are more requests for concessions than room available. He pointed out that a food and beverage concession pays the' highest fee for participation in G.AL.A He wondered if that participation is limited to a certain number. 9 .. .._-,--------~_..---_._~_._.__._.._._- _..~ MEETING MINUTES REGULAR CITY COMMIS~..JN BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA OCTOBER 21, 1997 Mr. Frederick explained that we have not had an over-demand for nonprofit groups wanting to participate in the last few years. We would have been able to accept more requests. There is a limit to a certain degree because of the limited space available. We charge very minimal rates to non-profits. San Francisco Puffs & Stuff is the private operation. We receive 31% of the gross. We determine and approve the products they are selling. Mayor Taylor pointed out that in the City of Delray Beach, the more concessions they allow, the more money they make. However, Mr. Frederick explained that we net $10,000 to $1 ~,000 from the 31 % of gross we receive, In the past, we ran the concessions ourselves. It is a~;great deal more work, and the records will confirm that more money is generated by letting this through a private contractor. Commissioner Bradley questioned whether there were any complaints about unauthorized vendors. Mr. Frederick said this is a situation that sometimes arises, but the situation is dealt with by attempting to shut down the operation. Mayor Taylor thanked Mr. Frederick his work on this event. However, he feels this is an event that should be handled by the Chamber of Commerce. Motion Commissioner Jaskiewicz moved to approve Item IV-B.S. Commissioner Bradley seconded the motion that carried unanimously. CONSENT AGENDA ITEM IV.D.2 Ratification of Planning & Development Board Action: Zoning Code Variance for Fidelity Federal Bank Mayor Taylor reported this item was denied by the Planning & Development Board on a 6-1 vote. One of the bank officials requested this opportunity to present additional information. Kevin McGinley, representing Fidelity Federal, said one of the Planning & Development Board members felt allowing the existing monument sign to stay within 5 feet of a 1 a-foot setback would increase the City's liability with respect to any vehicular accident. Mr. McGinley said there are telephone poles closer to the property line than the monument sign. The applicant has met the burden of hardship on all of the special conditions required for a variance. He requested the Commission reconsider whether or not this is the basis for denial of a variance. Attorney Cherot was ot the opinion that the liability is not greater in this circumstance than it is in another other circumstance. However, he pointed out that he was unable to determine from the Planning & Development Board meeting minutes whether that was their reason for denial. Mayor Taylor asked for clarification on how this sign was originally placed in this location. " Mr. ~Ginley explained that there is a drainage swale on the south side of the sidewalk. There is a very steep slope. The original plan that was approved by the property owner was to set the . sign at 1 Q'. When the sign contractor went into the field, he noticed the steep swale and realized he did not have the equipment necessary or the authorlty to go inside the drainage swale. He put the sign on top of the berm. This sign has been in place for approximately one year. 10 - MEETING MINUTES REGULAR CITY COMM, ION BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA OCTOBER 21, 1997 Ms. Heyden confirmed that there is no room to move the sign because the catch basin is right up against the base of the monument sign. If the sign is moved back, it will block drainage to the swale. The only alte~native would be to remove the sign. Commissioner Jaskiewicz questioned whether this situation had been exacerbated because of the widening of Woolbright Road. Mr. McGinley explained that the widening of Woolbright Road took place prior to installation of the sign. However, the widening has affected this parcel because there was more property available. Motion Commissioner Bradley moved to rescind the diredion of the Planning & Development Board and reverse the decision in order to GRANT the variance. Commissioner Jaskiewicz seconded the motion. __ _ Commissioner Bradley asked Attorney Cherof whether we could get something from the property owner that would minimize the City's liability. Attorney Cherof responded negatively. The motion carried unanimously. CONSENT AGENDA ITEM IV.H. Consider petition by Sarah B.
