Section 1. D - signs allowed, to allow the height of a monument
sign to be increased from the maximum of 6' to 8' 1"
D.3. Via Lugano - Melear PUD - Variance from the City of Boynton
Beach Land Development Regulations, Chapter 2 - Section 4.J.1,
to allow for construction of 5' high decorative fence and column
sections within the 40' front yard setback at a setback of 23' 11"
0.5. Via Lugano - Melear PUD - Site plan approval to construct 13
apartment buildings containing 364 dwelling units, clubhouse,
office, recreation facilities, and associated parking for 767 spaces
on 12.58 acres of land
Commissioner Bradley expressed concern about the variance the Planning & Development
Board granted to allow the maximum height of the monument sign for Via Lugano to be
increased from 6' to 8' 1" when that Board is only permitted to grant a valiance for 25% over the
amount allowed. He is fearful we are not following the protocol in our Land Development
Regulations.
Tambri Heyden, Planning & Zoning Director, explained that there was a great deal of discussion
during the board meeting about this project and these variances, and the developer made many
comments in response. Some of the units in this project are two stories, and others are three
stories high. The developer feels it is necessary to have higher scale appurtenances and
amenities to compliment this higher scale project. The developer also feels this higher scale
translates to a higher dollar value he can command for his apartments.
The Planning & Development Board members' comments somewhat mirror Commissioner
Bradley's remarks. Some of the board members did not feel the height of the sign would offer
more success in renting these units.
