DEVELOPMENT BOARD BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA APRIL 13, 1999 Mr, Rumpf added that the landscaping depicted on the plans was identical to the landscaping already provided in the area.

There is a required 25'-30' perimeter buffer required in this PID, On the south side of the plan, Waxed Myrtles and Eugenias will be planted. When Mr. Myott questioned whether or not the Planning & Development Board had seen this plan in the past, Mr. Rumpf explained that this is a long narrow parcel with warehouse buildings.

Mr. Rumpf reported that no one is currently working on that project. Mr, Rosenstock said this was a project that was workshopped and discussed on multiple occasions. He requested that the City Commission report back to the Planning & Development Board that assignments have been made to continue the progress of developing a new Sign Code for the City of Boynton Beach. Mr. Myott said he was at a meeting of the AIA Board of Directors at the County a few months ago when a discussion took place about sign age being almost more important than the appearance of the exteriors of buildings. Bad signage will ruin a neighborhood faster than any other aesthetic item. Therefore, Mr, Myott is in favor of moving forward with the revised Sign Code with quality in mind. 8
