The subject PUD is currently under construction. The purpose of this proposal is to ensure installation of a 6 foot high buffer wall along the northern property line, as requested by the City Commission as a condition of rezoning approval and required perimeter landscaping, see Exhibit "B" - Site Plan. On November 19 of 1996, the City Commission approved a rezoning request to change the zoning on 5.05 acres of property located on the east side of N.E. 4th Street, approximately 300 feet south of N.E. 22nd Avenue, from R-3 (Multiple Family Dwelling District) to Planned Unit Development with a Land Use Intensity of 7 (PUD w/LUI=7). The proposed East Ridge PUD provides for the construction of 33 single family, detached homes with a gross density of 6.5 units per acre. Subsequently, a plat of the development was submitted to the City and is being processed. Since there are no common areas proposed for this development, no site plan application is necessary. However, in order to meet the City Commission conditions of approval of the master plan, specifically the installation of a 6 foot buffer wall between the northern property line of East Ridge and the southern lot lines of adjacent businesses and offices to the north, a site plan application was requested and received. Also, the site plan application contains code required perimeter landscaping to screen the vehicular use areas. Traffic Traffic concurrency was addressed at the time of the approval of the rezoning master plan. Drainage - Drainage concurrency was addressed at the time of the approval of the rezoning master plan and will be finally approved as a part of the platting process. The driveways were addressed at the time of the approval of the rezoning master plan. The on-site parking was addressed at the time of the approval of the rezoning master plan. The landscaping will fully meet the code requirements when staff comments are incorporated into the drawings submitted for permit. Zoning code site regulations were addressed at the time of the approval of the rezoning master plan. ~ Page 3 Memorandum # 97- 532 East Ridge PUD - buffer wall and landscaping NWSP 97-020 Signage/Community Design Plan: The applicant elected not to apply for signage approval at this time and understands that any future sign age requires Board and Commission review at a later date. RECOMMENDATION: The Planning and Zoning Division recommends approval of this site plan request, subject to the comments included in Exhibit "C" - Conditions of Approval. The Technical Review Committee (TRC) recommends that the deficiencies identified in this exhibit be corrected prior to the plans being submitted for building permit.

Vice Mayor Jaskiewicz clarified that she was voting in support of the Resolution with the exception of Section 4 which will be subject to discussion at the time the new City Manager is appointed. (Commissioners Bradley and Tillman dissented.) VI. PUBLIC HEARING: Attorney Cherof advised that there are some amended rules from the Legisture with respect to quasi-judicial issues. The applicants or their representatives (other than the attorney) must be sworn. Staff also must be sworn. The public and the City Commissioners do not have to be sworn. He administered the oath to the applicants and staff. A. Project: East Ridge PUD POSTPONED AT OCTOBER 15, 1996 CITY COMMISSION MEETING Agent: W. Keith Grant, John A. Grant, Jr., Inc. Owner: Gary DeGraf,lnc. Location: East side of the intersection of NE 4 Street and NE 20 Avenue Description: REZONING: Request for master plan approval for 33 single- family units in connection with a rezoning of 5.01 acres from R- 3 to PUD (Planned Unit Development) with a Land Use Intensity of 7.00. David Holzman. PE with the firm of John A. Grant. Jr. Inc" represented Gary DeGraf. The Planning and Development Board unanimously approved this project with a large number of conditions. Of the 25 comments, the applicant objects to only one (Comment #16) which requires providing guest parking. This issue was raised last week. The applicant has researched the Code which deals with the required number of parking spaces for a single-family development. (The research is attached to the original set of these minutes on file in the City Clerk's Office.) The standard for a PUD requires no less than two spaces per dwelling. The applicant has provided two spaces per dwelling. There is nothing in the Code that 13 - - MINUTES REGULAR CITY COMMISSION BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA NOVEMBER 19, 1996 requires more than two parking spaces per dwelling unit. Mr. Holtzman also pointed out that other similar developments in the City were not required to provide guest spaces except where there are recreation facilities. No recreation facilities are provided in this development. The applicant has paid the full recreation fee. Therefore, the applicant requested that this item be deleted. The applicant has no objection to any of the remaining comments. Tambri Heyden, Director of Planning and Zoning, advised that this is a rezoning from R-3 to PUD. The surrounding properties are R-3 to the north and south, C-2 to the northeast, and R-1-A to the northwest. There is a mixture of multi-family, commercial and single- family zoning. Staff supports the rezoning. The rezoning was recommended for approval by the Planning and Development Board with a 7-0 vote. They recommended approval of all staff comments with the rewording of Comment #21 to provide clarification of the hedge height in the buffer along the railroad tracks. This rezoning is recommended for approval because the density proposed is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and there is no change in the land use. This project is somewhat unique because while the unit and the land under the unit will be conveyed fee simple, the property around the unit is owned in common by a property owners' association. Those documents have been submitted. All of the property will be maintained by one entity. With respect to the guest parking spaces, staff does not dispute that the parking provided meets zoning requirements: However, the Building Department recommends guest spaces because these are small lots with narrow roads and shallow driveways. Because most people have two cars, one car winds up parked on the street which makes it difficult for service and emergency vehicles to use the road. The condition relative to guest parking spaces is a recommendation. In response to Commissioner Bradley's question, Ms. Heyden advised that the streets are private and part of the master common area. The pavement meets Code. Brenda Williams. 337 NE 24 Avenue. said this project will be in her neighborhood. She feels this project will impact traffic and cause congestion. She also feels that these homes are too close together. Dannv O'Brien. representina the VFW Post 5335. said the VFW property is adjacent to, and north of the subject property. Their property is 184'. They carry on a quasi- commercial operation at this location. The VFW is approximately 20' from the north property line of the proposed project. On the south property line, the VFW has a parking lot, a dumpster, a barbeque pit, and a storage shed. On the south side of the building, 14 MINUTES REGULAR CITY COMMISSION BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA NOVEMBER 19, 1996 there is a kitchen utensil washing area which is outside the building. There are security lights around the property. The VFW would like the Commission to address the screening between the two properties because the VFW has functions every Sunday morning, every Wednesday evening, on bingo nights and on meeting nights (two to four meetings a month). The VFW anticipates problems in the future when the residents settle in because they will want the security lights turned off, the dumpster moved, and the outdoor activities eliminated. Mr. O'Brien confirmed for Mayor Taylor that he is a trustee at the VFW and was asked to represent the VFW at this meeting. Ms. Heyden advised that the applicant is proposing a 2W wide landscape strip which will contain a hedge that will be 36" high at the time of planting. Our Code allows the hedge to grow only to 6'. Commissioner Tillman questioned whether this buffer will include a hedge and a wall, or only a hedge. Ms. Heyden advised that only a hedge is included. At this point, Attorney Cherof advised that the proposed LDRs talk about hedges that are adjacent to railroad tracks being allowed to grow to 8'. City Manager Parker Hill arrived for the meeting and replaced Mr. Sugerman at the dais. Mr. Holtzman advised that the applicant would not have a problem stipulating that the hedge be maintained at 6'. Mayor Taylor explained that he shares the concerns mentioned by Mr. O'Brien. The people who buy these homes will be looking out their back windows at the activities on the VFW property. Mayor Taylor was of the opinion that a very thick 6' hedge might provide the proper buffering, but suggested the addition of fencing. Commissioner Tillman suggested the construction of a wall to protect the residents from the sights and sounds on the VFW property. Vice Mayor Jaskiewicz reminded the Commissioners that walls promote graffiti whereas "living" walls do not. In response to Commissioner Bradley's question, Mr. O'Brien said the dumpster is located in the southwest corner of the VFW property. It is east of the shed and 8' to 10' north of the south property line. Mayor Taylor said the VFW has frequent cookouts at their facility. There will be complaints from these residents about the smoke. He does not feel a hedge will adequately buffer these homes. 15 - - MINUTES REGULAR CITY COMMISSION BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA NOVEMBER 19, 1996 After looking at the plan, Mr. Holtzman advised that a 6' high chain link fence is proposed. Mayor Taylor said he could support a 6' high slatted fence with a hedge. Vice Mayor Jaskiewicz advised that there are now precast cement walls available which are probably not more cost prohibitive than a slatted chain link fence. This type of wall was used at SW 23rd Avenue. She requested that the applicant consider this type of wall rather than a fence. Mr. Holtzman expressed concern about the cost, and said he would investigate. Mr. Holtzman felt that the residents who purchase the homes near the VFW might be willing to contribute to the cost of slatting the fence. Garv DuGraf. reDresentina the develooer, said this is the type of situation that evolves when residential abuts commercial property. Vice Mayor Jaskiewicz feels a thick Ficus hedge would be the most attractive concept. Mr. Holtzman asked if the developer could agree to a slatted fence with a 6' high Ficus hedge as a minimum. They will investigate to see if they can come up with something better or equal. Mayor Taylor advised that this issue will be resolved by the Commission making the decision and adding it as a condition. The suggestion made by Vice Mayor Jaskiewicz is something worth investigating. That type of wall was inexpensive and it looks like a concrete wall. ( Terrv Gallaaher, 500 Federal Hiahwav. is concerned about traffic and asked the Commissioners to address that issue. Ms. Heyden advised that this project submitted a traffic impact statement, and it meets our levels of service. Mr. Holtzman advised that this parcel is designed to accommodate an even heavier level of development and more vehicles. With regard to traffic, Mayor Taylor advised that the roadway project on Gateway Boulevard should get underway by the early part of the new year. The money has been allocated and a decision is being made about who will oversee the project. There will be a turning lane provided in the middle of the road, and there will be sidewalks on both sides of the road and landscaping. With respect to guest parking, Mr. Holtzman said other developers have not been asked to construct those spaces. In addition, this developer has adhered to every aspect of the Code. Mr. DuGraf questions why the City cannot adhere to its own Code. Ms. Heyden explained that with age and the drying effects of the sun, plastic slatting becomes brittle and the fence becomes aesthetically unpleasing. In addition. the wind tends to topple the fence. Therefore, whenever possible, staff discourages slatting of 16 MINUTES REGULAR CITY COMMISSION BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA NOVEMBER 19, 1996 fencing. The applicant agreed to look into the construction of the prefab wall and plant a hedge that will be maintained at 6'. Commissioner Titcomb pointed out that if the Commission wants a wall added, it must add that as a condition of approval on this project in order to have the project move forward. Even the wall will not help entirely in this situation. Vice Mayor Jaskiewicz felt it might be possible to ask the adjacent property owner to cooperate by moving the dumpster as far away from this .project as possible and add screening. However, Commissioner Tillman had a problem with this suggestion. He feels that if a wall is desired, the Commission must make that a condition of approval tonight. Mayor Taylor agreed that it would not be appropriate to require the VFW to change anything at this point. The Commission needs to deal with the proposed project. City Manager Parker Hill pointed out that there are some maintenance problems with the prefab walls. Grass and vines are beginning to grow between the slats. Because of the location of the wall, it will be necessary to hand clip the growth between those slats. She recommended that the Commission require a regular wall if they desire a wall. Mr. DuGraff stated the developer would not have any problem with the VFW erecting a wall. He said the developer has no use for it. If the Commission requires it, the developer would have to build this wall several hundred feet long. It is his opinion that the VFW should build the wall since it is their activities which are injurious. Commissioner Tillman feels the developer should be attempting to protect the interests of the people he plans to sell these units to. A wall with a hedge would be more attractive and would eliminate the negative problems for the future. He feels the developer should be more amenable to doing something that would be favorable to the City. He supports the developer putting in the wall for the protection of future residents. Mr. Holtzman questioned the reasons why a 6' high fence with a thick Ficus hedge would not be sufficient buffering. Mr. DuGraf pointed out that the distance between the buildings is the minimum distance (15') required in R-1 zoning. Grea Blanchard. 160 Oranae Drive. said Ficus hedges cause cracks to the slabs and endanger piping. Motion Commissioner Titcomb moved to approve the East Ridge PUD project rezoning subject to all staff comments including Planning and Development Board conditions, and with the 17 -- -- MINUTES REGULAR CITY COMMISSION BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA NOVEMBER 19, 1996 additional condition that the developer construct a permanent wall along the north boundary to protect the property owners to the north. Commissioner Tillman seconded the motion. Attorney Cherof requested that the motion be more specific with regard to the dimensions of the wall. Ms. Heyden advised that 6' high is a standard wall height. In addition, Ms. Heyden requested clarification on whether the wall should be precast or CBS. Commissioner Titcomb did not know whether he had the expertise to specify the type of wall, and suggested that that be worked out with staff. He amended his motion to delete Comment #16 from staff comments. The wall will be constructed along the entire north property boundary. The motion carried unanimously. Ms. Heyden reminded the Commissioners that there is a 10' utility easement. There may be a small problem created by the footer for the wall. Staff will work with the applicant. B.

In response to Chairman Wische, Mr. Drummond advised that these are low-income houses and the price would range from $83,900 to $88,900. Mr. Aguila suggested that Bahia sod not be used in the swale for the easement near the retention area running north/south along the tracks because it will die from overwatering.

Project: Agent: OWner: Location: Description: Courtney Drummond. Registered Professional Engineer for John Grant Engineering, 333 North Federal Hlahwav. Boca Raton. Florida. was present on behalf of the applicant. Assistant City Attorney Pawelczyk administered the oath. Mr. Drummond reported that East Ridge is a 33-unit PUD. The applicant had no Objections to any of the comments raised by staff, and will make all necessary changes to reflect staffs comments. Mr. Aguila said he was not able to determine the species of hedge material intended for the area along the railroad tracks or on the perimeter. Mr. Drummond said it is Cocoplum and Red Cedar. Mr. Aguila explained that although the applicant may be in compliance with the Code relative to the tree line along the tracks. it would be aesthetically more pleasing and create a denser barrier that will deflect some of the noise from the train if the trees were staggered in a triangular shape. Mr. Drummond accepted this suggestion and agreed to make that change. He realized that he might have to add some additional trees. In response to Mr. Rosenstock, Ms. Heyden advised that a Red Cedar tree is very similar to a Juniper. Mr. Rosenstock thought there was a variety of Juniper that is brown for more than six months each year. It would be a mistake to plant this type of tree because they look dead most of the year. Ms. Heyden advised that the Red Cedar tree remains green all year. . ,. i \.-. .. '. : i Discussion ensued about the monotonous variety of trees selected for this development.
