CASE NO. & ADDRESS:
#137 & 138
404 & 403 N.W. 12th Avenue
MEETING DATE:
November 13, 1989
CURRENT ZONING:
R-2
DESCRIPTION OF LOT:
CHERRY HILLS, Lots 414 & 417
OWNED BY:
Palm Beach County Housing Authority
VARIANCE REQUESTED:
Lot area, lot frontage, setbacks (front,
rear & sides) & living area
FACTS:
1. These sites are presently zoned R-2 and were formerly zoned
R-2.
2. Each structure was built to be used as a two-unit apartment
building in 1958.
3. The owner was issued a permit to convert them to maintenance
and office buildings (permit #82-0062 and #82-0061 issued
1/14/82).
4. Both sites and structures are non-conforming due to sizes
and setbacks (see copy of attachment).
5. A variance on all accounts would be required to convert
these structures to a single family use.
6. The R-2 site regulations were met at the time the permit in
1958 was issued; however, they changed in.1975 and the
1982 permits were issued per a master plan approved in
1981, #81-1495.
7. We have no record on file of any past variances and a change
in use of a ,non-conforming structure would require one, per
Appendix A, Section 11.1.D,E,F and G of the Zoning Code.

City of Boynton Beach
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;
The Palm Beach County Housing Authority has forty six (46)
units in the Cherry Hill section of the City of Boynton Beach.
All 13' x 70' buildings on 25' x 100' lots were refurbished.
All units use common sidewalks due to the lack of space between
the buildings. At the time of the major refurbishing in 1980,
two (2) buildings were attached together to develop duplexes.
The unit for which we are requesting the variance was a single
end structure, and for two (2) years was used as a
maintenance/manager/community services building. As a result of
the many break-ins and the vandalism in the unit, the Palm
Beach County Housing Authority boarded up the buildings and
requested funding from HUD to convert the buildings into a
single family, two (2) bedroom home. All parking, street
access, and utilities presently exist. The requested funding to
refurbish the building was approved by HUD.
b. That the special conditions and circumstances do not result
from the actions of the applicant;
Only the
building
the Palm
time has
interior of this building will be converted, and the
will not be enlarged in any manner. No action taken by
Beach County Housing Authority in 1980 and since that
caused the present conditions and circumstances.

No other land is available to increase the lot size. Adjoining
lots are the same approximate size and have buildings on them.
f. That the granting of the variance will be in harmony with the
general intent and purpose of this chapter and that such
variance will not be 1nJurious to the area involved or
otherwise detrimental to the public welfare;
It will also eliminate another vacant building from being used
for drug related activities. Other property owners (including
402 N.W. 12th Avenue) have refurbished their buildings to
improve the quality of living and to protect their investments.
This building is the last empty structure on that side of the
block.
