REVIEW COMMENTS PLANNING AND ZONING DEPARTMENT MEMORANDUM NO. 96 -363 TO: Tambri J. Heyden Planning and~zoninl~ector FROM: Michael E. H ag Current Planning rdinator DATE: July 3, 1996 SUBJECT: Riverwalk - comments for parking lot variances File No. PKLV 96-002 Please be advised of the following comments relative to the review of the above-referenced request: 1. It is recommended that the existing middle driveway located on US No. 1 be closed and a new ingress/egress driveway be constructed approximately 85 feet north of the existing driveway. The new driveway could align with the proposed access aisle that is located in front of the Winn-Dixie tenant space. It is further recommended that the location of the new driveway and the signalized pedestrian cross walk across US No. 1 be coordinated. 2. If the commission approves the variance request submitted by the applicant regarding the location and shape of the driveway and access aisle of the west driveway located on Woolbright Road, it is recommended that a triangular shaped raised concrete median (shaped and positioned in the driveway to divert traffic in an easterly direction), right turn only sign and a maximum 12 foot wide exit lane be installed on-site at the driveway. These improvements will direct the vehicles in an easterly direction to minimize the left turn movement. The left turn movement crosses over east bound traffic and a stacking lane for west bound traffic turning left (south) onto US No.1. It is further recommended that the stripping proposed for the ingress side (west) of the existing driveway be omitted and replaced with a raised curb landscaped island with lawn grass. The landscape island shall extend eastward to within 12 feet of the triangular shaped concrete median which is shaped and positioned to allow east bound ingress traffic only. The shape of the island shall also be extended southward to a point that would create a 12 foot wide access aisle opening to allow vehicles to enter the outparcel bank site. These improvements will stop west bound traffic from entering the site at this distance from US No. 1 and lengthening the distance to the access to the bank will minimize the stacking of vehicles onto US No. 1 because of vehicles making a hairpin turn into bank site with the existing conditions. 3. If the commission approves the variance request submitted by the applicant regarding the length of the access aisle located on the south side of the existing middle driveway on US No.1, it is recommended that the eleven (11) parking spaces located adjacent to the access aisle be omitted and replaced with a maximum 12 foot wide one-way south bound access aisle. It is also recommended that the unused paved area following removal of the parking spaces and reducing the width of the access aisle be turned into a raised curbed landscaped area that includes trees or palms, shrubs and ground cover. 4. If the commission approves the variance request submitted by the applicant regarding the drainage, it is recommended that in addition to the proposed new exfiltration system pollution control devices be installed at the two (2) storm water outfalls into the Intracoastal Waterway and a management plan for maintenance of the pollution control devices be approved Page 2 Planning and Zoning Department Memorandum No. 96-363 Riverwalk - PKLV 96-002 by the Director of Development and the Director of Planning and Zoning. The pollution control devices would help control the quality of water discharged into the Intracoastal. The recommended pollution control devices and maintenance plan was a condition of approval of the drainage variance approved by the Planning and Zoning Board in December of 1988.

Article II: . Section F - Drainage, Request by Applicant: To reduce the required 2.5 inches on-site containment of storm water to.5 inches of containment. My Comment: The applicant should have a written permit from the appropriate environmental regulatory agency (s) fur storm water drainage into the Intracoastal Waterway, The agency (s) may not allow the reduction in on-site containment of storm water or may require certain types of drainage filtering structures to be installed for the proj ect. The applicant has also requested credit fur the existing hedge/fence structure along the south property line abutting the McDonald's Restaurant facility. The existing buffer is acceptable except for an existing space in the hedge of 6-8' in width, The applicant should fill in this space with a matching size of Ficus benjamina hedge plants to complete the existing hedgeline.

'J - , ~ \' ~ Department of Development, Engineering Division Memo No, 96-210 Re: Riverwalk - Second Site Plan Review June 18, 1996 Page #2 Recommendations: A. Reduce the width of the three east/west aisles west of the proposed Winn Dixie store from 30' to 27', Reduce the width of the aisle in front ofWalgreens from 30' to 24'. Use the surplus width to create two or three pedestrian paths between the wheel stops for a safe access path from the parking lot to the Winn Dixie store. D, Provide engineer's certification that the seawall is structurally sound and needs no repalf, E. Consider "Right Turn Only" markings on the Woolbright outer lane from U.S,#I to the first driveway subject to County approval. F, Consider removing the three parking stalls next to the striped pedestrian path from the "M~or 3" building to Winn Dixie and align the path with the existing sidewalk. \~ ~ '\'" Our major concerns remain as follows; I. Project is not in compliance with Chapter 23, Parking Lots, and specifically Section 2, Scope, page 23-1, which requires compliance ''under any of the following conditions: A. When a parking lot serves an existing building(s) where said building is proposed to be enlarged or when an additional building is proposed to be constructed; " Both conditions apply, as the building is proposed for expansion, lIIld an additional building is shown. Therefore drainage requirements must be satisfied. The access point on Woolbright Road nearest Federal Highway is not only too close to Federal, but its' geometty does not provide required throat clearance, A much better result would occur if a single entryway were provided on Woolbright. The access point on Federal Highway in front of the Drug Store does not provide adequate clearance into the Drug Store parking lot and drive thru, To provide required throat clearance, the parking lot access to the drive thru should be completely closed or (preferred) the driveway to Federal itself should be relocated farther north. II. III. WVH/ck C:RIVERWK2 Police Department PKLV 1. It is recommended that both existing driveways located on Woolbright Road be closed and a new ingress/egress be constructed approximately centrally located between both existing driveways. The single new driveway would allow safer ingress/egress for east bound, west bound traffic on Woolbright Road. 5 2. It is recommended that the exlting middle driveway on US No.1 be closed and a new ingress/egress be constructed north of the US No.1 pedestrian traffic signal crossing. This new ingress/egress would not conflict with the pedestrian crossing and avoid stacking of vehicles into US No.1. caus I r i S rUom''''(;;')'O'~0 r> 1. ?Change the traffic flow on the access aisle located west of the Walgreens tenant space to one-way south bound and change the parking layout from 900 to diagonal, This design would alleviate traffic waving to cross in front of .on-coming traffic entering the drive-through lanes. fl~/'VV ~p Jf.;..~b" J)f>,(,IJ~~ p" ~ ,riJ .j){fn!(yvlJ I} ;r rtJ/JimC: 19~1fr 6x,,-i,1U6 '>vv 'P-l / , 15 ((cC-O"N/UVIJ{;<:J(r.

FROM: SUBJECT: RIVERW ALl( SHOPPING CENTER -2nd REVIEW - CONDITIONAL USE - MEMO #0241 SGT. MARLON HARRIS ..~REFERENCES: POLICE DEPARTMENT /WI' ENCLOSURES: In reviewing the submitted plans and requested variances for this project, I find several concerns and traffic related issues that have not been dealt with since this plaza was first established; approximately thirty years ago. Since that time, population/traffic growth and frequency bas increased and so has the amount of vehicle and pedestrian crashes in this area. Since the parking lot and traffic flow are being completely modified, I feel the time is appropriate to correct some problems that exist outside, but directly related, to this shopping center. E, Woolbright Road - There are currently two (2) driveways that access this roadway, Currently they are both for ingress/egress traffic. This creates several problems. First, the east driveway is at the base of the intracoastal watelWay bridge. This causes traffic to stack on the bridge incline when making a left into the center. Traffic exiting the center, making a left turn, must do so in front of traffic increasing in speed (decline of bridge). This driveway is approximately 100 feet of the second driveway, which further complicates vision and congestion for vehicles making a left turn. The west driveway, is less than 180 feet from State Road 5 (S. Federal Highway). This driveway causes frequent driver confusion, and disregard for current traffic control sign age and roadway striping on E. Woolbright Road. Traffic exiting the center, making a left turn, frequently block eastbound traffic when attempting to enter the westbound left turn lane or westbound travel lane. The plans call for a reduction of this driveway, and allowance of right turn in and right turn out only. I would maintain that this would not completely remedy the traffic problem on E. Woolbright Road. Mr. Dan Weisberg, Palm Beach County Traffic Engineering, has reviewed this section of roadway and has supported the following suggestion: Allow only one major ingress/egress for E. Woolbright Road. This is to be accomplished somewhere between the two existing driveways. This would alleviate the problems that surround both existing driveways. Also, Palm Beach County is planning a curb extension on the southeast section of the intersection (Federal Highway & Woolbright Road) to assist in traffic flow for eastbound traffic on E. Woolbright Road, Currently, traffic ignores the "Right Turn Only" signage prior to Federal Highway, and continue to travel east, over Federal Highway, and make a right turn into the shopping center, The curb extension would prohibit this from occurring, and only one lane of travel would be allowed to !:Xist east of Federal Highway. This would also allow for a longer right turn lane on Woolbright Road to enter the shopping center. Access to the bank property can also be accomplished without a drastic turn from Woolbright Road. State Road 5 (S. Federal Highway) - It is proposed to close the furthest north driveway. It is also proposed to construct a "drive-through" for Walgreen's Drugs on the west side of the building. Both of theses proposals complicate traffic problems that already exist. First, closing the furthest north driveway creates more traffic flow on property that does not belong to the center. The bank that is currently there has one-way traffic flow that is counter-clock wise. Currently there are ''NO ENTRY" signs that are posted on the access drive from the bank to the center. Should the center wish to use the bank's driveway, I would believe that an access agreement would have to be presented. This would bring an increased amount of traffic flow on the bank . ~j1.-Dp € eny for traffic entering and exiting the center. This would congest the bank s current traffic flow to their o Q. ',1fc-UP tcller window's and A TM machine. The middle (main) driveway on Federal Highway is proposed to (Lemain as is. This creates traffic flow and code violation problems. The driveway does not allow for a 100 foot right-of-way line (or throat) on the property. This is to be complicated with the proposed "drive-through" at Walgreen's Drug Store. Vehicular turning cannot be accomplished safely when entering from Federal Highway. This driveway is a concern, in regards to the pedestrian crossing light. The driveway is currently located to the south of the crossing. When the crossing light is activated to cross pedestrians, traffic exiting the center continue to make right turns out of the center, interfering with pedestrian traveL My suggestion for this area is to construct a new ingress/egress that would be located north of the pedestrian traffic signaVcrossing. This would alleviate interference with that signalization and pedestrian traveL This would also allow for the 100 foot right-of-way onto the property; in accordance to current code. This would also allow for easier accessibility to the drive-through of Walgreen's Drugs, This would discourage the use of the bank's driveway to access the center's property. My suggestion for the parking area on the west side of Walgreen's Drugs would be for "one-way" traffic only. This would be southbound travel only and create slanted parking spaces to encourage this. This would alleviate traffic having to cross in front of on-coming traffic when entering the drive-through. O;IWP\TRC\R\TRCll24J.WP.o ,.,J INTER-OFFICE MEMORANDUM f9 \I ~ E 0 W rn,~ ) Jlt' 1.

SFWMD has on record sufficient examples of permitting the continued use of systems such as this one. The new modified plan for Riverwalk has several advantages and improves the quality of the storm water runoff. Currently the outdoor lawn and garden chemical storagc is immediately adjacent to a catch basin allowing chemicals to enter the drainage system. The proposed plan eliminates the outdoor storage of chemicals. The current tenant performs auto service work. This work allows amounts of oil and service fluids to enter the storm drainage system. Currently no catch hasins are located in grassy areas. Ibis allows unfiltered storm water to enter thc system. Currently almost no impervious area exists on the site. The proposed plan includes the striping of a large amount of impervious paved area. Ibis paving will be replaced with pervious areas and landscaping. Every individual item concerning drainage has been improved. Despite the improvement of these conditions complete compliance is impossible. A variance has been requested for the existing outfull. Precedent exists for the granting of this request 19. Effort has been made to comply except as indicated in application for variance 20. Effort has been made to comply except as indicated in application for variance 21. One cwb cut onto US Highway 1 has been closed.

Project Name: Agent: Owner: Location: Legal Description: DECEMBER 13, 1988 Causeway Square Shopping Center Michael Timmons/John Maguire E&H Properties, Inc. Boynton Beach Associates, Inc. South Federal Highway at Woolbright Road, southeast corner See Addendum "B" attached to the original copy of these minutes in the Office of the City Clerk Request for a variance to Section 5-142(h)(3) and Section 5-142 (h)(7) "Driveways" of the Parking Lot Regulations. Miss Heyden discussed the three requests from Causeway Square Shopping Center at this time as they were all related. She stated that the old Grand Union grocery store was to be convered into a location for the Ben Franklin store. Parking would be upgraded and three variances were being requested. The first request involves the three driveways which currently exist on South Federal Highway. Description: The second request is necessary as the northern-most drive- way is within 180 feet of the intersection rights-of-way lines of South Federal Highway and Woolbright Road. One of the two existing driveways onto Woolbright Road (the western-most) is within 180 feet of the same intersection. The TRB recommended approval of this request as submitted. The applicant has agreed to make one of the three existing driveways onto Federal Highway (the southern-most) a one- way, exit only drive. The driveway onto Woolbright Road whiah is within 180 feet of the interesetion is used to access the platted outparcel at the southeast corner of the interesection (Carteret Bank). A cross access agreement exists between the shopping center and the bank. The history of traffic accidents in the vicinity does not indi- cate that the current driveway design at the shopping center has significantly contributed to accidents. The applicant is also requesting that the existing storm- water discharge into the Intracoastal Waterway be allowed to continue. The TRB recommended this request be subject to - 14 - MINUTES - PLANNING & ZONING BOARD BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA DECEMBER 13, 1988 the construction of pollution control devices at the two storm water outfalls into the Intracoastal Waterway and submittal of a management plan for maintenance of the pollu- tion control devices to the City Engineer. Miss Heyden noted that maintenance is very important if the pollution device is to work properly. It would be a hardship to require that retention areas be installed as the parking lot paving would have to be removed at considerable cost. The applicant will add landscaped islands in the parking lot. The third request is site plan approval to allow for eleva- tion change to the vacant supermarket and change in parking lot layout and design for the Ben Franklin store. The TRB recommended approval of this request subject to staff com- ments. Brenda Arnold, Kilday & Associates, 1551 Forum Place, Suite 100A, West Palm Beach, was present to represent" the appli- cant. She stated that this shopping center is 20 years old and there were many problems they had tried to rectify. The parking lot is paved from property line to property line. The markings were to be upgraded as well as the handicapped parking spaces. The dumpsters would be screened with a 6' wall and landscaping would be added. Presently there is no landscaping or green space. The site would not allow them to make all the changes they would like to make, and they would not be able to bring all up to Code. They were having a problem providing enough parking, but with careful planning had come up with just enough to meet code. She felt that once the Ben Franklin is finished more people will be coming into the center to shop and the rest of the center will probably have a better occupancy rate. The TRB has approved the variances requested subject to staff comments. Mr. Richter asked if Ms. Arnold had any problem with the staff comments, and she replied that she was in agreement with the staff comments. They were working on the signage situation and it was their understanding that they have three years to bring this up to the new code. Mr. Richter as~ed if they were repairing the seawall, and Ms. Arnold replied that they were as this was to their advantage as well. The parking lot was being undermined and it was necessary to make the seawall repairs. Chairman Walshak asked how the polution devices would work. Rick Rossi, Rossi and Malavasi, stated that his firm had done the enigneering for the pollution abatement process. They had used a system which has been used throughout the South Florida Flood Control District. He explained that the system works much like a grease trap. The oils and sediment - 15 - MINUTES - PLANNING & ZONING BOARD BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA DECEMBER 13, 1988 are separated and contained and can then be removed by access from the top of the box. Mrs. Huckle asked if Ms. Arnold represented the project at the TRB meetings, and Ms. Arnold stated that she was. Mrs. HucKle questioned the use.of the southerly Highway curb cut to remain as long as it was a one-way exit. Ms. Arnold agreed and stated this was decided because of the trucking flow. The trucks exit I-95, come in off Woolbright, go into the center and exit out onto Woolbright Road and to I-95. Mrs. Huckle had looked at this as being an entrance to pre- vent some of the jamming up at the next entrance. She had not thought about the truck situation. Mrs. Huckle stated that on most of the shopping centers approved recently. the Board has felt that it works well for the exists out of shopping centers to contain a double exit - one for right and one for left turn. She referred to the Sunshine Square publix store and Oakwood Square. She noted this had worked very well. She had looked at the Causeway Square and saw a couple of areas where this would not work. She did feel the one coming out of K-Mart and turning right toward the bridge would work well with the two lanes. Mr. Aguila stated that this does not appear to have 27' of space and to make another lane would cause them to have to give up the landscaped island. Ms. Arnold noted that they have a very critical parking problem. At present they have a buffer of only two spaces. Since this is an exising center she felt these were needed to maintain the parking required. If they do have excess, they will be glad to put in the additional turn lane. Ms. Arnold also stated that another problem they have is the existing agreement with Carteret. Mr. Annunziato stated that the problem is that they are at or near the number of required parking spaces. To add a left turn lane at that eastern most entrance may require eliminating one parking space and put them into a Code problem. He recommended that if they remain above the mini- mum requirements, that they install a turn lane. He did not want to throw them into a Code violation. Mr. Aguila asked if all the islands ,indicated would be landscaped and have raised curbs. Ms. Arnold stated that all but a couple would be, but they were trying to leaving the existing light fixtures to avoid any additional costs. Shade trees would be placed in all the interior parking islands and would be fully irrigated. Ms. Arnold felt that by working with staff to get the building remodeled for Ben Franklin an improvement in the site would result. She acknowledged that for her as a site planner. the plans were - 16 - MINUTES - PLANNING & ZONING BOARD BOYNTON BEACH. FLORIDA DECEMBER 13, 1988 less than desirable, but this center is 20 years old. The plans would certainly be an improvement. Mr. Richter agreed this would be quite an improvement as far as the looks are concerned. Mr. Annunziato spoke on behalf of staff recommendations. He felt that the City would be getting a tremendous upgrade for a substandard shopping center which would probably not occur if the variances were not approved. He referred to the pollution abatement system and noted that this came about as a result of a recommendation he had made. Mr. Annunziato referred to a time when Colonel Trauger was Mayor. At that time he required the property owners to "wash their face, and comb their hair." He felt the improvements to Sunshine Square, although modest, were somewhat responsive to the plea from Colonel Trauger. Mrs. Huckle asked if the Ben Franklin was going to be a large one. and Ms. Arnold stated that it would not occupy all of the Grand Union space. She was not aware of any other tenants at this time. Mr. Richter felt that it was commendable that common sense was used on everyone's part to put this project together. As no one wished to speak for or against the requests, THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS CLOSED. Motion on Request for Variance to Section 5-142(h)(3) and Section 5-142(h) (7) "Driveways" of the Parking Lot Regulations Mrs. Huckle aoved to approve the requested variance to Section 5-142(h)(3) and Section 5-142(h)(7) "Driveways" of the Parking Lot Regulations for Causeway Square Shopping Center located on South Federal Highway at Woolbright Road, southeast corner subject to all staff comments (attached as Addendum "C-l - C-2" to the original copy of these minutes in the Office of the City Clerk).

MOIt.ry T,.n, 2010, P.!m deeelt G.rdeM, Ronde 33410 RIVERW ALK SHOPPING CENTER BOYNTON BEACH, FL DRAINAGE VARIANCE April 1996 The proposed Riverwalk Shopping Center is the remodeling of an existing, fully developed project located on the southeast comer of U.S. Highway No.1 and S.E. 15th Ave (Woolbright Road). At the time of construction, nearly 30 years ago, the City's development ordinances had no requirements for storm water detention, Current City Ordinances require containment capacity of 2.5". Since the existing site is fully developed and has no appreciable facilities for storm water containment, it would prove to be an "exceptional difficulty" to provide the entire requirement of storm water containment and hence a variance is requested. The containment of the first 2.5" of runoff is to allow the removal of dirt, grit and any other surface materials prior to the storm water leaving the site. The proposed site has been designed to maximize the storm water containment. The designers have selected to utilize the proposed landscaping areas and construct underground exfiltration within any new drainage lines proposed. Approximately 17,000 square feet of landscaping areas have been added to the interior of the site which has resulted in .2" of storm water containment. Over three hundred feet of underground exfiltration can be accommodated in the proposed site plan. The proposed underground exfiltration will provide an additional .3" of storm water containment. The owner has also pledged to provide daily sweepings of the parking areas to reduce the amount of dirt which could enter the storm water system. This method reduces the need for storm water containment for dirt removal but presently, there is no quantitative credit given for this practice. The proposed plan will also eliminate two sources of environmental concern, The present site has the outdoor storage of lawn and garden chemicals and auto repairs are performed. Any spillage or leakage from either of these two activities goes directly into the Intercoastal Waterway. This variance request from the 2.5" of storm water containment to .5" of containment for the proposed plan on this existing site, will allow for the elimination of two potential sources of environmental concern and the upgrading of the existing storm water management system to provide for .5" of storm water containment where there is currently none. A preapplication meeting has been held with the South Florida Water Management District with Mr. Ken Talver and Mr, Carlos DeRojas. The District did not object to our proposal to provide .5" containment for this existing site. MEETING MINUTES PLANNING & DEVELOP_, IT BOARD BOYNTON BUCH, FLORIDA AUGUST 13,1996 C Ou;> 1b -00) . Comprehensive Plan Text Amendment for Public Storage - The applicant requested a postponement to the October City Commission meeting. However, the City Commission decided not to honor the applicant's request, and took action on the application. The application was denied. The applicant has submitted a request to the City Manager's Office for reconsideration. There is no information available relative to whether or not a reconsideration will be granted. . Conditional Use and Parking Lot Variance for Riverwalk Shopping Center - Both applications were approved subject to all Planning and Development Board recommendations and staff comments that were not in conflict with the board's recommendations. . Site Plan for Healing for the Nations Church - This application was approved subject to the board's recommendations. Ms. Heyden reminded the members that at the last meeting, mention was made about the landscaping at Tiffany's. Code Enforcement sent Tiffany's a courtesy violation on August 8 which puts them on notice that the site must be brought up to' the landscaping reflected on the most recent site plan. Mr. Aguila advised Ms, Heyden that all of the streetside landscaping is missing from the Atrium Shopping Center on Federal Highway. He reminded her that the applicant was mandated to install that landscaping when he came to the City to talk about building colors and opening the driveway on Federal Highway. Other than grass, the applicant has never installed a tree or hedge. Ms. Heyden will investigate this situation. Chairman Dubs pointed out that although the board is spending a great deal of time on these types of issues, it is time well spent because the present City Commission has been endorsing the board's recommendations relative to landscaping. Ms. Heyden advised that Blockbuster has requested a postponement until the next meeting on September 10. Chairman Dub8 questioned why this application was received without a plan submittal. Ms. Heyden advised that corporate identity means everything to Blockbuster. It is her opinion that prior to going into the site plan process, they want to find out if they will be able to get their lighted awning. Vice Chairman Golden suggested that this type of request be tied to the site plan approval process so that an applicant cannot come in with an incomplete package. Mr. Aguila did not have an objection to an applicant trying to "feel out" the board because if the community is adamant on some of these standards, the applicants can then find another location. We have dealt with many corporate identity applicants. Some of those applicants have changed to our way of thinking, and others have moved on to other communities. Ms. Heyden advised that she did not have a problem with the site plan submission not being included. However, she would like to have seen more details on the elevations. 2
