Anna Cottrell, 319 Clematis Street, Suite 804, West Palm Beach, is a planner and the agent representing Mobil Oil. The intent of this application is to contemporize the station to take it from service and retail sales of gasoline to a modern convenience store with gas sales and a car wash. Ms, Cottrell thanked staff for the work they have done with the applicant on the conditions. Ms. Cottrell said there are only two conditions (lighting and building appearance) at issue. Condition #31 - "In order to avoid excessive illumination and glare to passing motorists caused by lights under the pump island canopy, raise the elevation of the undercanopy by two feet. The fascia board height and elevation shall remain as proposed. Also, the photometries plan submitted shows illumination points ranging from 88 foot candles down to 3.9 foot candles, whereas the convenience store security ordinance only requires a minimum of two foot candles. Reduce the lighting levels so that no point exceeds 10 foot candles." During the Planning & Development Board meeting, there was discussion relative to the levels of illumination recommended by staff. The applicant did not have an expert present during that meeting. Ms. Cottrell said the recommendation has an absolute maximum on levels of illumination measured in foot candles. She requested that this item be deleted in its entirety. If that is not acceptable, she recommends that it be reworded to indicate that the site lighting shall meet the standards identified in the Land Development Regulations, Chapter 2, Section 4.N. Ms. Cottrell feels it is appropriate to either eliminate this recommendation entirely or make it more general because the factors involved in determining site illumination are more complex than just picking a number for maximum foot candles. The amount of illumination will be determined in part by the number of light fixtures, height of light fixtures, the type of fixture, and its location. In this case, Mobil understands there was a concern with the amount of lighting that was being used at the Amoco station across the street. Tests were done last week to determine the lighting levels at the Amoco station and the Mobil station at Congress and Hypoluxo. There have been no complaints about the lighting at the Mobil station on Congress Avenue and Hypoluxo Road. The requirements of Condition #31 will create an unsafe situation and the site will appear dark. Although there is a reference that there is a minimum of two foot candles recommended by the W:\NFO\COMM MIN.NFO State for convenience stores, this would only provide as much lighting as a full moon. This will not provide enough lighting on the site to conduct business outside. If the Commission were not comfortable eliminating the condition in its entirety, the applicant would be agreeable to indicating that the lighting shall be at those levels required to comply with Code. These are performance standards that require no spill-over and no glare. In response to Mayor Taylor's question regarding the results of the tests at Amoco, Mr. Chris East said the readings averaged 60 to 65 taken at 12 different points under the canopy. As an industry standard, lighting has taken a very big turn. The industry standard now is between 75 and 130 foot candles underneath the canopy. To promote 10 foot candle maximum on a site would be impossible, The site would appear to be closed and it would create a security problem. Mayor Taylor feels the Amoco station is brightly lit at 60 to 65. Mr. East agreed with Mayor Taylor that the Amoco station is adequately lit. Ms. Heyden advised that we have our own convenience store security ordinance that overrides this chapter of the LDRs. When the ratio is applied to the minimum, there is a maximum of 10 foot candles. Staff identified the problem to be the blinding light at the pump islands that is visible from the thoroughfare. For this reason the Planning & Development Board settled on the language which included baffling the light fixtures so that the illumination is directed downward rather than outward. Ms. Heyden consulted with Gee & Jensen and they advised that 10 foot candles are very light. She feels the applicant's request is excessive. The spread does not meet our Code. Commissioner Bradley questioned whether the applicant would have to apply for a variance. Ms. Heyden was not certain a variance was applicable in this case. Attorney Cherof advised that there is no variance procedure set forth in this section of the Code. Mayor Taylor is of the opinion that you cannot relate the lighting of a convenience store to the lighting of a gas station. The concern should be with the amount of lighting at the pump islands because people are conducting business at those islands. Ms. Heyden clarified that the Code refers to the parking lot outside the convenience store. The Code requires a maximum of 10 foot candles. Ms. Cottrell pointed out that if the maximum is 10 foot candles, there is not a convenience store or gas station within the City that complies with the Code. There are ways to meet the objectives of not excessively lighting the site so as to create glare or spillover. In the performance standard, there is no number associated with levels of illumination. Ms. Cottrell is not familiar with the section of the Code mentioned this evening. Ms. Cottrell is willing to work with the City to achieve the objectives the City wants. Vice Mayor Titcomb agrees that perhaps 10 foot candles are not adequate, but feels it might be necessary to set some limits. He suggested that the lighting expert and staff take lighting levels W:\NFO\COMM MIN.NFO ~[-L__UliJfC_ nIJUlllllDUlrtl.~. at a site the community is comfortable with (Amoco or Mobil at Congress and Hypoluxo) in order for us to craft parameters for this site. He is not comfortable leaving this open ended. Commissioner Jaskiewicz does not feel this Commission can deviate from what is existing on an opposite corner, and Mayor Taylor does not believe RaceTrac conforms to this Code. In response to a question about this Code from Commissioner Bradley, Attorney Cherof advised that this Code was adopted in November of 1990. Ms. Cottrell agreed that Mobil is amenable to a condition that the lights either be recessed or baffled so that there is no excessive glare. Ms. Heyden advised that staff has a light meter. They can take light readings at different locations throughout the City and come up with a standard. Ms. Cottrell is agreeable to working with staff to try to arrive at a level of lighting the City will be comfortable with. She said Mr. East and his company could offer their expertise. Commissioner Bradley feels a standard is necessary to ensure safety and to define glare. He is anxious to have the applicant and staff work together to arrive at some figures. Ms. Heyden advised that the other issue to be addressed deals with the building appearance. The conditions involved are: Condition #18 - Eliminate the bright yellow, translucent back-lit fascia (LDR, Chapter 3, Section 10.F.5); and Condition #19 -It is recommended that the eggshell stucco fascia proposed for the car wash be utilized on fascias of the proposed buildings and structures in order to achieve a more unified site as is required by Chapter 9 - Community Design Plan; Section 11.C. Ms. Cottrell explained that what was proposed was a building design that included a translucent back-lit fascia board 36" in height and yellow in color. At the Planning & Development Board meeting, a good rendering was not available. The applicant is now proposing that the building for the convenience store include a band of yellow. They are willing to eliminate the request for back-lit panels and do it on stucco. Mobil feels this is an important issue. There have been many modifications to the plan to meet the standards for Boynton Beach. Some of those modifications include the roof treatment in Spanish tiles on all three elements including the canopy. The amount of signage is also being reduced. From the market research, Mobil knows the customer needs to see a distinction between the goods they buy at the convenience store and the gasoline station. This is a mini-mart type of convenience store which offers a wider range of goods than a convenience store. This is not corporate architecture, and it is not intrusive or objectionable. Ms, Cottrell displayed a new elevation depicting a truer shade of yellow. She also displayed the color chip. W:\NFO\COMM MIN.NFO Regular City Commission Meeting 05/02/00 Commissioner Jaskiewicz questioned whether Mobil would consider reducing the size of the color band, However, Commissioner Bradley feels the band needs to be 36", but noted that the color chip, which is the true shade of yellow, is brighter than what was displayed on the elevation. He requested that the shade of yellow be toned down one or two shades to more closely match the shade of yellow displayed on the elevation. Ms. Cottrell was agreeable to working with the manufacturer to tone down the shade of yellow. MAYOR TAYLOR ANNOUNCED THE PUBLIC HEARING. THERE WAS NO ONE PRESENT WHO WISHED TO SPEAK ON THIS ITEM. .._.L!__ Regular City Commission Meeting 05/02/00 Commissioner Jaskiewicz questioned whether Mobil would consider reducing the size of the color band.

Motion Commissioner Jaskiewicz moved to approve the request for conditional use approval to raze an existing service station and construct a 3,084 square foot service station with a convenience store and a car wash on .879 acres of land subject to staff comments taking into consideration they are going to reduce the bright yellow and with regard to Condition #31, they will meet with staff to determine the lighting level, and delete Condition #34. Attorney Cherof requested more definition regarding the motion. Ms. Cottrell suggested eliminating Condition #18, and change Condition #19 to read that the fascia is to be yellow, consistent with the color in the elevation that is submitted for the record. Commissioner Jaskiewicz was agreeable with Ms. Cottrell's suggestion. Ms, Cottrell confirmed that the Commission was accepting the staff recommendations as amended by the Planning & Development Board. Mayor Taylor clarified that Condition #18 was being eliminated, Condition #19 is being amended to reflect the color as presented in the elevation, and with regard to Condition #31, the site illumination levels are subject to specific approval by the City Commission following staff recommendation. No building permit shall be issued until the entry of a supplementary Development Order addressing this issue. Attorney Cherof advised Ms. Cottrell that it would be necessary to come back before the City Commission for approval of an Order that addresses the lighting. Ms. Cottrell said the applicant must come back for signage. Vice Mayor Titcomb seconded the motion which carried 4-0. G Approve Zoning Code Variance request for Mobil Service Station to Chapter 2 - Zoning, Section 11.L.3.d(1) of the W:\NFO\COMM MIN.NFO Boynton Beach Land Development Regulations to allow an access driveway located 65' rather than the required 110' from the intersecting right-of-way lines of Woolbright Road and Congress Avenue Motion Vice Mayor Titcomb moved approval of the Zoning Code variance request for Mobil Station requesting the distance change on the access driveway. Commissioner Bradley seconded the motion, A gentleman from the audience expressed concern about the customers who will no longer have a place to take their cars for service. With the elimination of the bays, no service will be performed at this location. He said this is a good service station and the customers have been well pleased. Mayor Taylor explained that the Commission cannot dictate how a parcel of property is developed. The motion carried 4-0.

As we discussed, we have had several meetings with the City staff over the last half year, and we have expressed our desire to resolve this issue as quickly as possible so that Mobil can proceed with permitting for this facility. We understand that your response to Mobil's proposal is that the station lighting meet "industry standards". This response, regrettably, fails to resolve anything on this matter. Our lighting experts at LSI Industries have confirmed that the "industry standards" presented in your fax have been taken from "The Lighting System Design Considerations" within the IES Lighting Handbook. LSI research indicates that the lighting levels included in this text were formulated in the 1960's, and are wholly inadequate for a contemporary service station design. In his June 1, 1998 letter, a copy of which is attached, LSI's Scott Ready writes: "... the greatest motivation that major oil companies have had for increasing their investment in lighting at their sites has not been to add to merchandising power as much as it has been"! reaction t.) t]1e liability pressures and security concerns that have begun to dominate the convenience, retail fulling, and quick service food industries".

Image Group June 1,1998 Daniel Grimm Himes Associates Ltd. c/o Mobil Oil Corporation 2255 Glades Road Suite 444W Boca Raton, Florida 33413 Dear Daniel, In response to your request for information on industry lighting trends and standards, and issues relating to the need for adequate light levels in today's service station environment. I would like to take a few moments to share with you what we see in today's market. For the most part, the major oil companies selling through retail facilities across the country have set some very similar goals with regard to lighting. Exxon, Shell, BP, Texaco, Mobil and Sun have been increasing the level of light on their facilities gradually for the last 5-7 years. Area lighting has become a more important element as it has expanded its role from simple approach identification to a tool for overall site illumination used in conjunction with the canopy fixtures. Minimum levels for site lighting have been rising steadily for the last few years to a minimum of 3 to 5 footcandles in most cases. Canopy fixture levels have been traditionally anywhere from 75 to 130 footcandles for new installations depending upon the location. To understand what levels are appropriate or adequate, you need to look at the motivations for change from the levels of the past as well as the operating differences in the environment. Contrary to popular belief among some regulating zoning bodies, the greatest motivation that major oil companies have had for increasing their investment in lighting at their sites has not been to add to merchandising power as much as it has been a reaction to the liability pressures and security concerns that have begun to dominate the convenience, retail fueling, and quick service food industries. The security of employees and of local customers has become a major motivation to increase lighting in an industry which has seen a magnified effect of this country's crime increase. 10000 Alliance Road + Cincinnati, Ohio 45242 + (513) 793-3200 + FAX (513) 984,1335 ~._,_ "..~.~~~ I SI Automotive + LSI Petroleum I Convenience Store + SGllntegrated Graphic Syster Daniel Grimm Mobil Oil Corporation June 1, 1998 Page -2- The State of Florida has led the way with regulations mandating minimum levels of light on all locations in which non-family employees work. This was done to protect both the employee and the local citizen customer. The quick service restaurant industry, increasingly sensitive to customer injury liability has put forth a major push to increase light levels at all their facilities. While some communities feel that they are trying to protect their constituents by limiting the allowed light levels at facilities, they may in fact be responsible for setting in place the environment which will attract more of the crime element that they normally try to discourage. Today it is not uncommon for a major oil company to have to answer in a court of law to a complainant who claims to have been injured or assaulted as the result of negligent conditions such as poor lighting. Who will answer if that poor lighting was the result of local restrictions? Recent studies and publications available from OSHA illustrate how services stations have become categorized near the top of the list in terms of high risk establishments. These same studies show that lighting is a major factor in crime prevention. (See attached) OSHA's recommendations seem to promote the concept of raising light levels over those commonly found in the industry. This is in direct contradiction to recent proposals from some communities to reduce levels of lighting for new locations below those levels of existing locations in the same area. The Illuminating Engineering Society's (IES) manual that deals with lighting levels at retail petroleum sites is often quoted as the "source" of lighting recommendations for some zoning boards. Please find attached a copy of page 2-16. These levels have not changed since the mid-sixties. During the sixties, all petroleum sites were full-service with an employee of the owner being responsible for handling the fueling process. This was his full time job and he was trained to operate the equipment. Most facilities closed at earlier hours as the closing time matched the travel and buying habits of the population. Crime, self-service, and today's more hectic schedules are all factors which were not taken into effect when the manual was last edited. We are now seeing the IES manual under review with respect to the quick service restaurant industry and hope to see the petroleum section updated shortly after.

As we discussed, we have had several meetings with the City staff over the last half year, and we have expressed our desire to resolve this issue as quickly as possible so that Mobil can proceed with permitting for this facility. We understand that your response to Mobil's proposal is that the station lighting meet "industry standards". This response, regrettably, fails to resolve anything on this matter. Our lighting experts at LSI Industries have confirmed that the "industry standards" presented in your fax have been taken from "The Lighting System Design Considerations" within the IES Lightina Handbook. LS1 research indicates that the lighting levels included in this text were formulated in the 1960's, and are wholly inadequate for a contemporalY service station design. In his June 1, 1998 letter, a copy of which is attached, LSI's Scott Ready \\Tites: "". the greatest motivation that major oil companies have had for increasing their investment in lighting at their sites has not been to add to merchandising power as much as it has been a reaction to the liability pressures and security concerns that have begun to dominate the convenience, retail fulling, and quick service food industries".

As you know Mobil has submitted applications for building permits for this site. A resolution of the issues related to the site lighting will allow Mobil to complete its construction permitting, so we are pleased to have apparently reached agreement with your office on appropriate and allowed lighting levels. The Conditional Use approval for the station required final approval by the City Commission of the specific condition related to the lighting levels for this site. Weare respectfully requesting that this matter be submitted to the City Commission for consideration at the earliest possible date. Please feel free to give me a call if you need anything in order to process this request. Thank you for your time and consideration in this matter.

Yeend, P,E" City Engineer ~ June 26, 1998 DATE: RE: MOBILE LIGHTING In accordance with your request, I reviewed the lighting material provided. Additionally, 1 reviewed the City and County Codes related to lighting, As a result of this review, 1 have the following comments or opinions: 1, The" Lighting System Design Considerations" (copy attached) are recommended minimum standards published by the Illumination Engineers Society (IES), This is probably the most comprehensive and widely accepted lighting standard used today, 2, The two page report by Lucas Ford Assoc. (copy attached) shows the results of their lighting survey performed on Oct. 28,1997, The survey consisted of measurements of lighting intensities in foot-candles (FC) at 7 local service stations, The measurements were taken under the fuel island canopies at grade and listed in foot-candles. The average was also listed and ranged from 30.3 FC to 77,8 FC with 4 of the stations having averages over 60 Fe. 3. The IES suggests a minimum under canopy lighting level of30 Fe. The existing 7 stations averaged 180 percent of the IES minimum value, 4. The proposed Mobil Station has submitted a lighting plan revised to reflect the use of shielded lights, This plan indicates the average under canopy lighting to be 68.2 FC without shields and 90.6 FC with shields. This is 26 and 68 percent respectively above the average of the 7 existing local stations, 5, The City of Boynton Beach does not have a code that regulates or limits the lighting intensity except to prohibit producing a glare on adjacent properties. [LDR Chapter 9, Section 1O.F.2,J 6, Palm Beach County regulates lighting through their code Chapter 7, Section 7,8.B, (copy attached). This code limits light spillover and prohibits certain lights. Should the City desire to amend their code, I recommend the County code as a guide, In conclusion, the proposed Mobile lighting in the vicinity of the pump islands is relatively consistent with other stations in the City, The proposed Mobile lighting appears to be allowed under the current City code, JSY/ck Attachments C:'1\ly Do.:ultlcnts\1\lohile I.ighting,do.: I ' r.gl.

As you know Mobil has submitted applications for building permits for this site. A resolution of the issues related to the site lighting will allow Mobil to complete its construction permitting, so we are pleaSed to have apparently reached agreement with your office on appropriate and allowed lighting levels, The Conditional Use approval for the station required final approval by the City Commission of the specific condition related to the lighting levels for this site. We are respectfully requesting that this matter be submitted to the City Commission for consideration at the earliest possible date. Please feel free to give me a call if you need anything in order to process this request. Thank you for your time and consideration in this matter.

Please note that in the latest version of the Development Order condition # 19 is still not worded correctly, i.e., that is it does not accurately reflect the action by the City Commission. I believe the minutes of the meeting properly reflect that the City Commission approved a yellow fascia on the convenience store building, the color to be consistent with that shown on the elevation submitted for the record at the City Commission meeting, I am respectfully requ~sting by this letter that the Development Order for the Mobil Station be revised to correctly reflect all conditions imposed by the City Commission, Please feel free to give me a call if you have any questions regarding this, Sincerely, ~ Anna Cottrell, AICP CC: Mike Campbell, Bovis Construction tJ1ie City of $oynton 13eac/i 100 'E.

The project is reported to replace the existing 4-pump gas station with a 6-pump gas station, replace the existing 2,415 square foot convenience store with a 2,436 square foot convenience store, and add a car wash. There are three calculation errors in the trip generation section of the report. They are: - The County methodology for adding gas pumps. - The calculation of pass-by traffic after internal traffic credit. - The tripgeneraticn rate for a car wash. The attached table shows the trip generation calculations. The project will generate 240 additional daily trips, The changes do not change the results of the traffic study.
