Box 2429 West Palm Bea h, FL 33402 Dear Herb: Several weeks ago, we discussed the issue of who has the responsibility for the cost f turn lanes in the public right-of-way on 22nd Avenue, on the north ide of Motorola's Boynton Beach site. As we discuss Treasure Coas which Palm Be Boynton Beach sector is spe turn lane imp impact which tax revenue g be expected t serve the sit funds on Moto were undertak d, these improvements were specifically referenced in the Regional Planning Council's DRI Assessment Report, into ch County Commissioners has substantial input, and in the DRI Development Order. In both documents, the public ified as having the responsibility for the cost of these ovements. Because of the tremendous positive economic otorola will bring to the community in terms of job creation, neration, etc., it was agreed that the firm should not bear the costs of the transportation improvements needed to The State Department of Commerce committed to provide ola's behalf to ensure that the necessary improvemnets n in a timely manner. Because of th above background, Motorola is assuming that you concur that the Coun y is responsible for the costs of these turn lanes, and that appropri te arrangements are being made to finalize the design and incorporate t e improvements into the Congress Avenue widening project now underway. Thank you for your assistance on this matter. Si ncerely, L \ (l,\L\ lklL-- Mary Lou L-afkey Manager, Facility Planning and Sourcing Receive Date "'e Paging Products DiViSi~ 8000 W.

Avenue. They are as follows: 1. The South entrance on Congress Avenue should be 24' of pavement (2 lanes) exiting, a 12' median and 30' pavement (2 lanes) entering. 2. The North entrance on Congress Avenue should be 24' of pavement (2 lanes) exiting, a 12' median and 24' of pavement entering (2 lanes). 3. Each entrance should use flush header curbs (detail attached) rather than 6" non-mountable curbs. 4. All site plans should indicate the ultimate right-of-way lines for Congress Avenue and N.W. 22nd. Avenue. Thank you for your continued cooperation in this matter. Sincerely yours, R"'i~d~. (;P;.~ Oate~ &' Time /a'i<- ~ r' '-.S OFFICE OF THE COUNTY ENGINEER G. Haney Frakes, Jr., P.E.

Clark: As discussed in our recent meeting concerning the I'.otorola, P.LD.,' I ar.J requesting a Haiver of a "metes and bounds" type description for the plat. I am doing so for the following reasons: State of Florida Statutes, Chapter 177.041 Title Certification. "Every plat of a subdivision submitted to the approving agency of the local governing body must be accompanied by a title opinion of an attorney-at-law licensed in Florida or a certification by an abstractor or a tit-Ie company shOl./ing that apparent record title to the land as described and shown. on the plat is in the name of the person, persons, or corporation executing the dedi- cation.... " City of Boynton Beach Subdivision Regulations nrticle VIII. Paragraph 13.f - Certification of Title "The title certificate _shall state: (1) that the lands as described and shown on the plat are in the name, and apparent record title is held by the person, persons or organizations executing the dedication...,.. " Since these statefTl2nts are basically the same and govE'rn the preparation of the plat, I think you can see the problem that would be created for the person certifying to orinion of title if vie changed the description used in the conveyance to I'\otorola (same is nOl'1 shown on our plat). To quote experts (8rol'ln and Eldridge, Evidcnce and Procedures fOI" Boundary Location) "Once a description is written and a conveyance is made using that de5cl-iption, no mattcr how [1oorly it was fi'.Jde, it is rarely advisable to cliang2 it except by agreero.cnt deed bet\leen the interested .adjoiners or by court order." Further, I see no ambi gui ty in either the State statutes or the Boynton Beach subdivision regulations concerning "description." Ileithpr set of guidplines specifically states that only a "metes and bounds" description may be shOlm on a plat. .. . 101.

IIp ri 1 16, 1 gill Page 2 I believe tlle problem is in the wording of the Boynton ordinance con- cerning description. In Article VIII, Section VI, Paragraph 0.3, the terminology is a "full and detailed boundarl description.... The proper designation is land description and thus 1'lOuld encompass the complete variety of descriptions \'Ihich occur in the deeds I~e must survey. Hhile J can see how Someone could interpret "boundary description" as being a recital of cow-ses and distances, J think it I/ould be ill-advised for the City of Boynton Beach to enforce such an inter- pretation. After all, the rectangular land system (sections, township, range) and the platting process \'Iere created to ease the problems of conveying land and descriptions derived from these systems are much preferable to course and distance type descriptions. In the end, changing a proper description goes against the best training of the surveying profession and is not in the best interests of the public. In addition to granting this waiver, J hope that the City of Boynton Beach will examine the l'lording and interpretation of it's subdivision regulations and further that it request opinions on this subject from lll2r;1bers of the Florida Land Title Association and the Florida Society of Professional Land Surveyors.

Mr. Mike Holleman Heery & Heery, Architects & Engineers, 880 West Peachtree Street, N. W. Atlanta, Georgia 30309 Dear Mr. Holleman: I am responding to some of the questions that we discussed at our meeting on Thursday, April 30, 1981. A. Letter from Nick Miller dated April 16, 1981. I have discussed this letter with Tom Clark, City Engineer, and can report that he is willing to accept a plat with the information on it as outlined by Nick Miller. B. Landscaping Requirements - When you prepare the site plan, you can include typical landscaping that you will be providing for the buildings as development takes place so that the Community Appearance Board can approve that as a concept and as a minimum. Those typical landscape plans can then be made more specific for each building when you get a building permit for that building. We can run those more specific. landscaping plans to the Community Appearance Board at that time. C. Indications of Road on the Plat - Normally at the time of preliminary plat review, construction plans for public improvements, including lift elevations, are also submitted and reviewed at the same time as the plat. Since, at the time you submit the plat, it may not be clear exactly which pieces of roadway or access lanes you are to build, if any, these things do not need to be noted on the plat. However, the plat as we discussed before will include an indication of the utility easements to be given to the City for lift station purposes. Greenbelts 'should be identified on the plat. Mr. Mike Holleman Heery & Heery, Architects & Engineers, Inc. 880 West Peachtree Street, N. W. Atlanta, Georgia 30309 Page 2 May 19, 1981 D. We have reviewed the DRI regulation and conclude that toe "land development permit" and the "development order" are really one and the same and not matters with which we really need to be concerned. The normal development review process and issuance of permits will respond to these DRI terms and procedures. I have not talked to Florida Power & Light Company yet concerning the street lights, but as soon as I do, I will indicate to you how we will deal with this matter.
