REVIEW COMMENTS NON EAR-BASED SITE SPECIFIC AMENDMENTS TO CITY OF BOYNTON BEACH FUTURE LAND USE PLAN AND ACCOMPANYING TEXT AMENDMENT <. DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT MEMORANDUM NO. 99-302 TO: Chairman and Members Planning and Development Board FROM: Michael W. Rumpf Planning and Zoning Director DATE: December 30, 1999 SUBJECT: Villa del Sol (LUAR # 99-005, CPTA # 99-002) Amendment to Comprehensive PlanText and Future Land Use Map and Rezoning PROJECT DESCRIPTION Project/Applicant: Villa del Sol/Grove Partners, L TD Agent: Bradley D. Miller, AICP Owner: Grove Partners, L TD Location: Northwest corner of the intersection of Federal Highway (US 1) and Old Dixie Highway; the subject property is located within the expanded CRA area (see Exhibit A). File No: Land Use Amendment/Rezoning (LUAR 99-005) Text Amendment (CPTA 99-002) Property Description: Vacant property consisting of 16 acres classified Local Retail Commercial (LRC) on the Future Land Use Map and zoned C-3 (Community Commercial) Proposed change/use: To amend the Future Land Use Map from LRC to Special High Density Residential (SH), and rezone from C-3 to R- 3, Multi-family Residential. The applicant, Grove Partners, L TD, is proposing these changes in order to develop the subject property as a residential rental project named Villa del Sol. The proposed land use change qualifies as a large scale amendment pursuant to Chapter 163 F.S. This proposed amendment is being reviewed for transmittal to the Florida Department of Community Affairs (DCA). 1 Proposed change/ text amendment: After transmittal and DCA review, the proposed amendment may be scheduled for adoption in Mayor June of2000. The Comprehensive Plan text amendment will apply to Planning Area l.p., as described in Section VIII, Land Use Problems and Opportunities of the Future Land Use Element Support Document (pages 89 and 90). Section VIII was adopted into the Plan by Policy 1.17.3 of the Future Land Use Element. The text currently reads as follows: "1.p. Parcels at Northwest Corner of U.S. I and Old Dixie Highway Due to the limited demand for commercial floor space along this segment of U.S. 1, the Coastal Management Element originally recommended that these parcels be taken out of the Local Retail Commercial land use category, and placed in the Special High Density Residential category. However, because a site plan and construction drawings for a shopping center on this site have been approved by the City, the City Commission decided to keep these parcels in the Local Retail Commercial land use category." The proposed text reads: "1.p. Parcels at Northwest Comer of U.S. 1 and Old Dixie Highway Due to the limited demand for commercial floor space along this segment of U.S. 1, an initial recommendation of the Comprehensive Plan adopted in 1989 was that these parcels be taken out of the Local Retail Commercial land use category, and placed in the Special High Density Residential category. This recommendation was not enacted because a site plan and construction drawings for a shopping center on this site have been approved by the City. The shopping center has not been developed and the site plan and construction plan approvals have expired. Therefore, these parcels should be taken out of the Local Retail Commercial land use category and placed in the Special High Density Residential category to encourage development and revitalization of this area of the City." 2 This text amendment and map amendment would allow for the conversion of the current LRC classification of the subject property to the SH classification. The SH classification, with the maximum density of 20 dwellings per acre, originated in the Coastal Management Element of the Comprehensive Plan to encourage infill development south of Woolbright Road; the application of this land use category is limited to the Coastal Area. In connection with this amendment, Table # 24 - Site Specific Future Land Use and Design Considerations - within the Coastal Management Support Document is to be amended to show the 16 acre increase of the SH classification (Map Area # 16). Table # 24 was adopted into the Plan by Policy 7.9.6, and in part, describes the size of the area to which the SH classification and design recommendations apply (see reference. map and Table #24 within Exhibit B). These specific design recommendations are intended to mitigate any potential impacts generated by development at this higher density. The design considerations include expanded setbacks, which increase with building height (e.g. 3- story -75 feet, and 4- story - 100 feet). Logically, if the SH area is expanded to include the subject property, the corresponding design recommendations should apply to the new area, and Table #24 should be revised to accurately describe the property within map Area # 16.

These criteria are required to be part of a staff analysis when the proposed change includes an amendment to the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map. a. Whether the proposed rezoning would be consistent with applicable comprehensive plan policies including but not limited to, a prohibition against any increase in dwelling unit density exceeding 50 in the hurricane evacuation zone without written approval of tlte Palm Beaclt County Emergency Planning Division and the City's risk manager. Tlte planning department shall also recommend limitations or requirements, wlticJt would have to be imposed on subsequent development of the property, in order to comply witlt policies contained in tlte comprehensive plan. With regard to the aforementioned written approvals of the Palm Beach County Emergency Planning Division and the City's risk manager, there is an inconsistency between the criteria specified in the Land Development Regulations and the Comprehensive Plan. Pursuant to the Comprehensive Plan Policy 1.12.1, such written approvals are required if the proposed density increase results in the increase of 50 or more dwelling units. Since the proposed density increase for the subject property will result in a potential increase of 148 dwelling units, the application will be forwarded to the Palm Beach County Emergency Planning Division for review. The proposed rezoning is generally consistent with Comprehensive Plan objectives and policies regarding compatibility of the proposed land use classification with adjacent land uses, the availability of service capacity, and the Comprehensive Plan's projected surplus of commercial land. In particular, the proposed amendment Irezoning must comply with the following policies: 1. Policies requiring the consistency with the Coastal Management Element and encouraging infill development compatible with the Community Redevelopment Plan: Policy 1.9.1 (Future Land Use Element) - "Implement the land use and redevelopment policies contained within the Coastal Management Element" Policy 1.13.3(Future Land Use Element) - "Encourage infill development and redevelopment by adopting and implementing the Community Redevelopment Plans} and the policies contained in the Coastal Management Element". 4 The subject property is located within the Coastal Area as described within the Coastal Management Element Support Documents. The SH classification was established in the Plan to encourage development and redevelopment in the Coastal Management Area (see Exhibit C - except from Future Land Use Support Document). The subject property, as indicated in the Comprehensive Plan text, was originally recommended for the proposed SH designation. 2. Policies calling for monitoring of commercial land uses for consistency with demand for such uses: Policy 1.19.6 (Future Land Use ElemenO - "...do not allow commercial acreage lvhich is flreater than the demand ll.-'hich has been pro;ected... " Policy 1.19.7 (Future Land Use Element) - "In areas where the demand for commercial uses will not increase, particularly in the Coastal Area, subsequent to Plan adootion chanfle the land use and zoninfl to oermit only residential or other non-commercial uses ". The replacement of this commercial use with a residential classification is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan, as the analysis of data in the Coastal Management Support Document does not project an increase of demand for commercial uses in that area. The Plan recommends, where appropriate, the replacement of commercial uses with residential uses. The results of the analysis - a suggested surplus of commercial land- are consistent with the history of the subject property: it was never developed within its current Local Retail Commercial designation, in spite of the previous site plan approval for a shopping center. Staff has not evaluated the current demand for commercial uses; however, the Commercial Needs Assessment report, completed by the Palm Beach County Planning Division in August of 1999, provides future (2015) projections of need for commercial space and compares the need to the existing and potential supply. According to the study, the subject area shows a surplus of both retail and office space. 3. The following additional objectives and policies addressed below are either typically referenced by the Florida Department of Community Affairs (DCA), or required by them to be analyzed in the review of proposed amendments: Ob;ective 1.2 (Future Land Use Element - "Coordinate future land uses with soil conditions so that urban land uses are prohibited in locations where it is not economical to remove or treat unsuitable soils... "; and Policy 1. 2. 2 (Future Land Use Element - "...prohibit development of urban land uses where the removal or treatment of unsuitable soils would be uneconomical, provide that unstable soils shall be removed in all construction and land development sites where soils would affect the performance of infrastructure, drainage... " 5 No extreme soil conditions are kno\VTI to be characteristic of this property. Furthermore, policies such as those above will ensure the use of proper development techniques. Ob;ective 4.4(Conservation Element) - "The City shall, .....protect all remaining areas of substantive native upland and wetland vegetation and eliminate undesirable exotic tree species. "; Policy 4.5.1 (Conservation Element) - "In the event that a site survey indicates the existence of a representative plant of animal species designated as endangered or threatened on Federal, State or Florida Committee on Rare and Endangered Plants and Animal lists, the developer shall prepare a plan in consultation with the Florida Game and Freshwater Fish Commission and the Us. Fish and Wildlife Services for protecting the resident population. Preservation should be provided to the satisfaction of the City Planning Staff in consultation with the Federal and State agencies. " Policy 1.11.14 (Future Land Use Element) - "... provide for open space preservation by requiring the preservation of 25% of all "A ", "E ", and "C" rated sites... ". Except for the trees shown on the survey, the site has been predominately cleared of vegetation. The site is not listed as a natural resource area (an "A", "B" or "C" site) in the Conservation Element of the Comprehensive Plan and there are no wetlands or known wildlife on the property. However, actions indicated in policy 4.5.1. will be undertaken should a subsequent site survey prove otherwise. Ob;ective 1.11 (Future Land Use Element) - "... future land uses shall include provisions for the protection of ...archeological resources and historic buildings... " There are no archeological amenities knO\vn to exist on the subject property. b. Wltetlter tlte proposed rezoning would be contrary to tlte establislted land use pattern, or would create an isolated district unrelated to adjacent and nearby districts, or would constitute a grant of special privilege to an individual property owner as contrasted with tlte protection of the public welfare. The proposed rezoning is reasonably consistent with the established land use patterns. The adjacent properties are predominantly zoned residential, except for the two C-3- zoned parcels to the north-and southeast of the subject property. However, the first of the two properties is developed as the Homing Inn - a use equivalent to high density residential. Although the proposed amendment represents a rather extreme contrast in intensity compared to the adjacent single family homes, enhanced setbacks and buffering would minimize direct impacts, and traffic impacts should be minimal as the adjacent neighborhoods are isolated without through streets, and project traffic will predominantly follow a direct route to US-I. 6 c. Whether changed or changing conditions make the proposed rezoning desirable. After the attempt to develop a shopping center on the subject property failed, it has remained vacant for over 10 years. Based on this history and the request to rezone the subject property, its commercial value may be declining. The proposed zoning is also desirable in view of the increasingly active efforts to redirect development from areas next to the Everglades towards Southeast Florida's existing urban core. The Eastward Ho! initiative, which focuses on such efforts, was recommended by the Governor's Commission for a Sustainable South Florida in its October 1995 Initial Report (see Exhibit D). Given the high population gro\V1h projected for the next decade, one of the program's main objectives is for the eastern urban restoration and redevelopment to capture a greatest possible percentage of that projected growth. Accordingly, Palm Beach County proposes increased concentrations of residential uses within this area. Moreover, higher density residential uses are also more efficient, particularly in terms of infrastructure, which makes the proposed reclassification and rezoning consistent with the Eastward Ho! goal of advancing the efficient use of land. Higher densities and increased populations (particular of a diverse age and income class) in eastern areas will provide support for economic revitalization and downtown redevelopment. d. Whetlter the proposed rezoning would be compatible witlt utility systems, roadways, and other public facilities. Florida Administrative Code, Chapter 9J-11 requires that the availability of public facilities be analyzed in connection with the proposed amendment to a comprehensive plan, and that the maximum potential demand upon public facilities be determined. The following Comprehensive Plan policies specify general requirements concerning the availability of services, in particular with regard to infill development as in the case of the subject property: Policy 1.3.3. (Future Land Use Element) - "...limit the type, intensity, extent and location of land uses to those which the traffic generated by same can be accommodated... without exceeding the levels of service set forth... " Policy 1.4.4. (Future Land Use Element) - "...limit the type, intensity, extent and location of land uses to those which the traffic generated by same can be accommodated by the potable water system... " Policy 1.4.5. (Future Land Use Element) - " residential densities shall not be increased above those which were assumed in projecting water demand in the Potable Water Sub-Element unless it can be demonstrated that capacity will be obtained by reducing the land use density or intensity elsewhere... " 7 Policy 1.5.4. (Future Land Use Element) - "...limit the type, intensity, extent and location of land uses to those which the traffic generated by same can be accommodated by the sanitary sewer system... " Policy 1.5.5. (Future Land Use Element) - " residential densities shall not be increased above those which were assumed in projecting sewer flows in the Potable Water Sub-Element unless it can be demonstrated that capacity will be obtained by reducing the land use density or intensity elsewhere... " Policy 3.A.5.1. (Sanitary Sewer Sub-Element) - "Infill development and redevelopment will be encouraged only in areas presently served adequately by sanitary sewer facilities". Policy 3.C5.1. (Potable Water Sub-Element) - "Infill development and redevelopment will be encouraged only in areas presently served adequately by potable water facilities ". Policy 1.5.5. has been determined to be unrealistic and overly restrictive as it would prevent any intensification of land use changes despite the magnitude of change or facility capacity. The EAR recommended that this policy be deleted and that the intent be addressed by the modification of Policy 1.5.4. to include "density" as a development characteristic tied to capacity. The following facilities were analyzed in order to ensure that capacity is available: 1) Roads: The traffic statement has been submitted and indicates that the proposed amendment will represent a reduction of 6,412 average daily trips and therefore lower demand on the immediate roadway network (see Exhibit H). Moreover, the location and the proposed zoning qualify the subject property for Coastal Residential Exception under the Palm Beach County Traffic Performance Standards Ordinance (Section 15. (1) L). The Coastal Residential exception to the level of service requirements as defined by the subject ordinance is a policy tool intended to promote urban infill and redevelopment, and deter urban sprawl. It allows residential projects located in the area delineated by the ordinance to receive a Site Specific Development Order notwithstanding the standards set by the said ordinance. Consequently, the submitted traffic statement will be submitted to the County for informational purposes only. 2) Water/Sewer: The City's Utility Department reviewed the proposed amendment and indicated that water and sewer capacities are available to serve the maximum demands to be generated on this site (see Exhibit E). 3) Solid Waste: The Solid Waste Authority issues an annual notice relative to operating capacity. Ample capacity currently exist to serve the future solid waste collection and disposal needs generated on this site. This limited, non-quantitative review by the Solid Waste Authority is provided through a standard letter that they request be used 8 for availability of facility analysis until subsequent notice is received from them (see Exhibit F). 4) Drainage: An analysis of drainage facilities from the Lake Worth Drainage District is pending. Development of this site must comply with both the City's drainage requirements and those imposed by the Lake Worth Drainage District; and 5) Recreation: The reclassification to SH represents an increase of 147 dwelling units above that considered for residential development within the current designation and zoning. This increase equates to an estimated 243 persons (147 units multiplied by 1.65 persons per unit, an average number of persons per household in this Census tract as estimated by Palm Beach County). a) NEIGHBORHOOD PARKS - The 1989 Comprehensive Plan designated 20 different geographic areas for evaluating level of service for neighborhood parks. The proposed amendment site is located in area #18. Neighborhood park levels of service will likely be met on site. As with nearly all comparable coastal area developments, on site recreation facilities will likely include open space, gym, swimming pool and possibly tennis courts. Furthermore, a recreation impact fee will be collected at the site plan review stage which will contribute to the construction/improvement of recreation resources which serve the area. b) D IS TRI CT PARKS - The needs analysis for district parks was updated as part of the EAR. Using the adopted level of service standard of 2.5 acres per 1,000 persons, the City, in 1996, experienced a surplus of 10 acres of district parks. The proposed amendment will not have a negative impact on adopted LOS standards. c) RECREATION FACILITIES - The 1989 Comprehensive Plan adopted LOS standards for 18 recreation facilities. The EAR updated the needs analysis for these facilities and found them to meet or exceed the adopted LOS standards. The proposed amendment will provide recreation amenities on site. The adopted LOS will not be adversely impacted. 6) Schools - Palm Beach County School Board has been notified and review is pending. e. Whether the proposed rezoning would be compatible with current and future use of adjacent and nearby properties, or would affect property values of adjacent properties. Changing the land use and zoning for this site represents a slight deintensification of the property compared to the current permitted commercial use, as traffic generation is projected to decrease. The proposed residential use is generally consistent with the abutting residential properties except for the existing commercial development to the south and the contrast in densities. As for compatibility with adjacent uses regarding the 9 south and the contrast in densities. As for compatibility with adjacent uses regarding the proposed SH classification, the special design considerations will be applied to this classification to offset the potential impacts of the higher density upon adjacent properties. It should be noted that the actual densities vary greatly along the City's coastal area, ranging between 18.8 dwellings units per acre to 45.7 dwellings per acre (including a number of residential developments south of Woolbright Road) as documented in the Comprehensive Plan (see Exhibit G). According to the Plan, the Colonial Club condominiums east of the subject property have a legal, non-conforming density of 21 dwelling units per acre. f. whether the property is physically and economically developable under the existing zoning. Since a shopping center has previously been approved for the site, it is not likely that any unique physical constraints would limit development. However, under the current Local Retail Commercial land used designation, the subject property has been vacant for over 10 years. This indicates that even though it is physically developable, its development, either as a commercial property, or a residential development at a conventional High Density Residential classification with a density of 10.8 units per acre, has not been economically feasible. g. whether the proposed rezoning is of a scale which is reasonably related to the needs of the neighborhood and the city as a whole. Criteria for evaluating the relationship between the proposed amendments and development related to the needs of the neighborhood and the City include service demands, density, use, value and accomplishment of, and consistency with, Comprehensive Plan policies. As indicated above, ample capacity exists to serve the maximum potential service needs generated by this proposed project, and the maximum density is midway between the densities existing throughout the City's coastal area. The amendment request would comply with the initial intent of the Comprehensive Plan through the residential development of this area. The adjacent property values would be enhanced through application of the more stringent design standards for the proposed project. Also, as indicated in the Palm Beach County Commercial Needs Assessment Report of August 1999, a surplus of commercial space exists in the area and extends north to Boynton Beach Boulvard, west to 1- 95 and south well beyond the City's limits (to the Palm Beach County border). The total surplus of the retail and office space for this area has been estimated to be 1,927,830 square feet, based on comparison of the 2015 estimates of need and the existing and potential supply. h. Whether there are adequate sites elsewhere in the city for the proposed use, in districts where such use is already allowed. No vacant parcels of equal or similar size with designations allowing densities over 10.8 dwelling units per acre and with a similar location - close to U.S. 1 and the Intracoastal Waterway - are currently available in either of these locations. The multiple parcels 10 currently classified SH (e.g. Gentleman Jim's/Merkel's), has recently been assembled and is anticipated to soon be the subject of a site plan application by a different party. RECOMMENDATION The Planning and Zoning Division recommends that the applications submitted by Grove Partners, L TD for Special High Density Residential land use and R-3 (High Density Residential) zoning be approved, based on the following: 1. The proposed amendments and zoning would be consistent with Comprehensive Plan objectives and policies; 2. The proposed amendments would not be contrary to the established land use pattern, nor would they create an isolated district unrelated to adjacent and nearby districts, and nor would it constitute a grant of special privileges to an individual property; 3. The proposed land use and zoning would be compatible with capacities of utility systems, roadways, and other public facilities; 4. The proposed land use and zoning would be compatible with the current and future use of adjacent and nearby properties, and would not affect negatively the property values of adjacent or nearby properties; 5. The proposed land use and zoning relates in a reasonable way to the needs of the neighborhood and the City as a whole; 6. The proposed land use and zoning is consistent with the goals and policies of the Eastward Ho! movement, which seeks to revitalize urban areas, contain urban sprawl and promote infill and redevelopment. 7. The value of the proposed residential rental project, which would target higher income households, will significantly increase the CRA area tax base. This recommendation is subject to the conditions of approval listed in Exhibit "I", which require that the text amendment includes corresponding site specific design considerations within Table 24 intended to reduce the appearance of density from adjacent rights-of-way and adjacent properties. Such design requirements include the following: 1. Variable north and south setbacks based on project height (e.g. north side adjacent to residential district only; 1 story - 40 feet; 2 stories - 45 feet; 3 stories - 60 feet; and 4 story - 100 feet. South side adjacent to residential district, only; 1 story- 40 feet; 2 stories - 50 feet; 3 stories - 75 feet; 4 stories - 100 feet). 11 2. Perimeter landscaping on the north and south sides shall be both visually pleasing and shall include at minimum, a hedge, 1 canopy tree spaced no greater than 20 feet, and additional landscaping of varying height placed between rights-of-way shall include a small serpentine berm varying in height. The landscaping should include a combination of palm and deciduous/canopy trees densely spaced with a diversity of plant materials from ground covers at varying height placed within the buffer. 3. Signage shall be compatible (in scale) with adjacent residential properties and be designed in conjunction with materials to be repeated along the perimeter such as posts, fence elements, small monument features, etc. J:\SHRDA TA\PLA;o;;o;ING'.5HARED\WP\PROJECTS\VILLA DEL SOL CPT A & Lt;AR\VILLADELSOLSTAFFREPORT.DOC 12 , , EXHIBIT A LOCATION MAP Woolbright Road Golf Road/SE 23rd Ave. ., "Of ~: 0: ..!::: .-. to: IX! wf w: &L.! >..

The segment of U.s. 1 near the southern Cit: limit currently contains a significant number of vacant parcels, obsoletr buildings, and marginal commercial uses. In order to upgrade the properties fronting on U.S.~l, the coastal Management Element recommend~ that the existing Local Ret~il land use category be maintained, rather than permitting heavy commercial uses. Heavy commercial uses would be limited to the parcels which front on Old Dixie Highway. In order to absorb some of the commercial acreage along U.s. 1, the Coastal Management Element recommends that new car sales be allowed on the C-3 zoned property south of Old Dixie Highway, on parcels that have a minimurr area of 2 acres. There are several parcels and areas where increased residential densities are recommended, in order to encourage infill development. There are two small parcels, of 1.6 acres and 1.2 acres, located on the north side of Dimmick Road and at the end of Las palmas Avenue, where it is recommended that the land use category be changed from Low Density (4.84 dwellings per acre) to High Density Residential (lO~ dwellings per acre). These density increases are contingent on limiting development to two-story townhouses. * In order to encourage infill development south of Woolbright Road, the Coastal Management Element recommends that the density be increased on the largest remaining vacant multiple-family parcels. Currently, the maximum residential density in the City is 10.8 dwellings per acre. The Coastal Management Element recommends that a Special High Density land use category be created, with a maximum density of 20 dwellings per acre. The application of this land use category would be limited to the Coast?l Area, however. The parcel in question is located along the Intracoastc Waterway and is partly occupied by mangroves. Although the mangroves ar~ protected by law, it would be possible for this density to be transferred to the upland portions of this property. It is also recommended, in this e ement, that residential densities of up to 40 dwellings per acre be permitted in the CBD zoning district, and that this density be applied in addition to the commercial intensity which is permitted in the CBD zoning district. Many of the existing multi-family projects in the coastal Area exceed the maximum density which is shown on the Future Land Use Plan. The High Density Residential category of the land use plan allows for densities up to 10.8 dwellings per acre, whereas existing multi-family projects have densities which range from 17 to 46 dwellings per acre. It is recommended in the Coastal Management Element as well as in this element that the perpetuation of these projects at their existing densities be permitted, for two reasons: First, because public facilities in the coastal Area are sufficient to serve these densities; and second, because classifying these densities as non-conforming makes it difficult for potential buyers of these units to obtain mortgages, which creates a hardship for the existing owners, who are often elderly persons with moderate incomes. It is not desirable, however, for the City to create higher-density land use categories to accommodate the eXisting density cf these projects, since it would then be possible for property owners in other areas of the City to request the same density_ Also, the large 49 l<l treOlure cOOJ:t regional planniQg . council EXHIBIT D December 7, 1999 ~ :"";,, ~ 1~ ut 8~ ~. :It!". .;. ...!,.. .~.:.. .!;'!'. :;-J "". :it ~. ~chaelFluD1pf Planning and Zoning Director City of Boynton Beach P.Q, Box 310 Boynton Beach, Florida 33425-0310 (----. --. :.1:'4' ~ ~. .'

EXHIBIT E MEMORANDUM UTILITIES DEPT. NO. 99 - 331 , TO: Michael Rumpf, Planning and Zoning Director FROM: John A. Guidry, Utilities Director DATE: December 9, 1999 SUBJECT: Property located and the northwest corner of the intersection of Federal Highway and Old Dixie Highway Analysis on availability of utilities relative to Request for Rezoning In response to your memo no. PZ 99-267 we offer the following analysis: 1. The rezoning of this parcel would allow an increase of 244 residents over and above that which is allowed by current zoning. Based upon this population figure, the incremental increase for potable water demand is expected to be 48,800 gallons per day; the incremental increase for sanitary sewer demand is expected to be 21,960 gallons per day. Both of these values are based upon the City's adopted levels of service. 2. At this time, the City's water and sewage treatment facilities have sufficient reserve capacity to service this incremental increase. 3. The adequacy of water distribution and sewage collection systems proximate to the site will be evaluated as part of the site planning process. Any improvements required will be the responsibility of the site developer. I trust this response meets your needs.

This letter also constitutes notification of sufficient capacity for concurrency management and comprehensive planning purposes, Capacity is available for both the coming year, and the five and ten year planning periods specified in 9J-5.005(4). As of September 30, 1998, the Authority's North County Landfills had an estimated 35,425,321 cubic yards of landfill capacity remaining, Based upon the existing Palm Beach County population, the most recently available population growth rates published by the University of Florida Bureau of Economic and Business and Research (BEBR), and projected rates of solid waste generation. waste reduction and recycling, the Solid Waste Authority forecasts that capacity will be available at the existing landfill through approximately the year 2023, assuming the depletion of the Class I and Class In landfills is balanced. The Authority continues to pursue options to increase the life of its existing facilities and to provide for all the County's current and future disposal and recycling needs. As part of its responsibility, the Authority will provide an annual statement of disposal capacity, using the most current BEBR projections available.

Keller lr., Inc. Note: Asterisk.ed sites are subject to potential land use modification per the following Table 24. Redevelopment Potential As stated in the previous discussion, much of the coastal management study area is characterized by established and stable land uses. Based on a historical observation of more built-out communities funher to the south, coastal area redevelopment will probably occur on a scattered basis, and only after the regional supply of vacant land suitable for new fIrst stage development has been effectively diminished. Considering the available vacant land in both the study area and in the area west of 1-95, the potential for extensive areawide redevelopment is considered low within the ten-year planning horizon. In terms of residential activity. existing mobile home parks and a few underdeveloped multifamily shoreline properties have the greatest potential for redevelopment. This potential is highest in Planning Area 1 due to the proximity of these sites to Lake Worth and the Boynton Inlet.

EXHIBITS A. Location Map B. Legal Description C. Aerial Photograph D. Survey APPLICATION FORMS APPLICATION SUMMARY This application proposes a change to the Future Land Use (FLU) designation of a 16 aae property from Local Retail Commercial to Special High Density Residential 20 units per aae. The property is located at the northwest corner of the intersection of Federal Highway (US 1) and Old Dixie Highway near the southern limits of the City of Boynton Beach. The property is currently vacant and is bound by existing development to the north and south, Federal Highway to the east and the FEC Railroad to the west. This property was a matter of specific discussion when the City's Comprehensive Plan was adopted in 1989. In fact, the Comprehensive Plan Support Documents assign a particular section to this property. That section indicates that recommendations were made to designate this property as Special High Density Residential. However, due to an approved site plan and construction drawings for a commercial shopping center, the Local Retail Commercial remained as the land use designation. The site plan and construction drawings were not used. The commercial development proposed for this property has not been constructed. The property remains vacant. This application simply brings the land use designation back to what was originally recommended in 1989 - Special High Density Residential. Development of this property as a residential project will be consistent with the Eastward Ho movement that has been encouraged and supported by the Department of Community Affairs. It will provide the opportunity of a use that will utilize the existing public facilities without creating additional impacts. It will encourage and revitalize an area of the City with a well planned project with architectural and landscaping enhancements that exceed the current surrounding conditions and offer a secured community with internal recreational facilities and amenities. The approval of this application will allow for the development of the Villa del Sol project that will be a benefit to the City as a whole. Villa Del Sol - LUA Application City of Boynton Beach Rev.

Section 1.p. of the Comprehensive Plan confirms this basis and in fact indicates that if it were not for these approvals, the property would have been given the Special High Density Residential designation that is proposed by this application. These approvals were not used for construction of a shopping center and are expired. B. DATA REQUIREMENTS 1. Flood zone: The eastern third of the subject property is located within Flood Zone B and the remainder of the site is in Flood Zone A, according to Flood Insurance Rate Map Panel 120196 003 C. 2. Census Tract data: The subject property is located with Census Tract 63. 3. Effects on the Number of Dwelling Units/Population: a) Current FLU designation: I n addition to the typical commercial uses, the Local Retail Commercial designation also allows for residential development at a density of 10.8 units per gross aae. Accordingly, the 16 acre property could be developed with a maximum of 172 dwelling units. 16 ac x 10.8 ufa = 172 du b) Proposed FLU designation: This application proposes the Special High Density Residential land use designation at 20 units per gross acre. This density would permit the development of 320 dwelling units on the 16 acre property as indicated below. 16 ac x 20 dujac = 320 duo Villa Del Sol - LUA Apprication City of Boynton Beach Rev.

Proposed FLU - Current FLU = Net Change 320 172 = 148 du d) Effects on the Population: Based on the additional 148 dwelling units at 2.39 persons per unit, (average number of persons per household as established by Palm Beach County), the population would increase by approximately 244 persons. 148 du x 1.65 per /du = 244.2 or 244 persons 4. Non-Residential Development Potential/Changes: a) Current FLU designation: The current Local Retail Commercial land use designation permits the development of non-residential square footage at a maximum floor area ratio of .35. The 16 acre property under the current Local Retail Future Land Use designation would support a maximum of 243,936 square feet of non-residential development. 16 ac x 43,560 sf/ac x .35 = 243,936 sf b) Proposed FLU designation: The proposed Special High Density Residential land use designation of the subject property does not allow for commercial uses. Therefore, no commercial development would be permitted with the proposed future land use designation. c) Change in Non-Residential Square Footage: The non-residential building area would be decreased by 243,946 squcre feet with the approval of the proposed change of the future land use designation.

JUSTIFICATION STATEMENT 1. Project Summary This application is proposing the Special High Density Residential land use designation that was originally intended for this property. Section l.p (page 89) of the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Element Support Documents specifically addresses this property indicating the following: . There is limited demand for commercial floor space along this segment of Federal Highway. . The Coastal Management Element of the Comprehensive Plan originally recommended this property for the Special High Density Residential land use designation. . Based on an approved site plan and construction drawings for a shopping center, the site remained designated as Local Retail Commercial. Based on the shopping center not being built, the original recommendation was accurate. There is a resurgence and encouragement for new developments within the eastern areas of the City and all of Palm Beach County. This revitalization of eastern development is consistent with the Eastward Ho movement supported and encouraged by the Florida Department of Community Affairs. Many municipalities, including Boynton Beach, have taken advantage of this movement and have been quite successful in bringing a focus back to the eastern areas of Palm Beach County. The Villa del Sol project will contribute to that resurgence by providing a new well planned residential project with the intentions of attracting younger professionals and families that will add to the population base for activity and revitalization of the eastern areas of the City. 2. CONSISTENCY WITH COMPREHENSIVE PLAN This application is consistent with several goals, objectives and policies of the City's Comprehensive Plan some of which are indicated below. Objective 1.13/Policy 1.13.3 - Encourage infifl development and redevelopment by adopting and implementing the Community Villa Del Sol - LUA Application City of Boynton Beach Re\'. December 8, 1999 C '!~~ L!=' C\.C'ROJ~CTS''.'-:~:2 C~' 3~! (Bcjt;::on ISY(i.,;a"i2C8.'s;:>d 8 Redevelopment Plans, and the policies contained in the Coastal Management Element. Policy 3.A.5. 1. - Infill development and redevelopment will be encouraged only in areas presently served adequately by sanitary sewer facilities. Policy 3.C.5.1. -Infill development and redevelopment will be encouraged only in areas presently served adequately by potable water facilities. The subject property is located within the Coastal Area as described within the Coastal Management Element Support Documents of the Comprehensive Plan. Considering that all properties surrounding this site are developed, it could also be classified as an infill property. As mentioned previously, this particular property was originally recommended for the proposed Special High Density Residential designation. In addition, this property is located in area where public facilities such as roads, water and sewer service are available with capacities to support the proposed project. This application is consistent with the intent of this policy for infill development of a property to be used for residential purposes. Objective 1.171Policy 1.17.1 - Discourage additional commercial and industrial uses beyond those which are currently shown on the Future Land Use Map, except where access is greatest and impacts on residential land uses are least. As indicated previously, this property was originally recommended for the Special High Density Residential land use designation. However, due to approvals for commercial development, it remained designated Local Retail Commercial. This application is consistent with this objective and policy by bringing the site back to its intended residential designation. The residential designation will be less of a nuisance and have less impacts to the residential communities that surround this property. Objective 1. 191Policy 1.19.7 - In areas where the demand for commercial uses will not increase, particularly in the Coastal Area, subsequent to Plan adoption change the land use and zoning to permit only residential or other non-commercial uses. The subject property is located within the Coastal Area as described within the Coastal Management Element Support Documents of the ViHa Del Sol - LUA App:ication City of Boynton Beach 9 Rev. December 8, 1999 C:U L P C\PROJECTS\V:lla del Sol (8cI';'1ton 15)\!ua~2:;8.wpd Comprehensive Plan. The Coastal Management Element Support Documents indicate that the Coastal Area has an excess of commercial property and recommends changing those properties for residential use. The demand for commercial uses has moved west into areas including and surrounding the Boynton Beach Mall. This has decreased the need for commercial uses in the eastern areas of the City. Rather than this property being developed under its current Local Retail Commercial designation, the proposed Special High Density Residential designation will allow for a more desirable use being the apartment community proposed as Villa del Sol. 3. DEMONSTRATED NEED Although the City's Comprehensive Plan indicates that there is a need for additional housing units, the applicant has retained the services of a professional market analyst to prepare a market analysis specific for this property. The market analysis will be provided upon completion. 4. CONSISTENCY WITH THE URBAN SPRAWL RULE Florida's Department of Community Affairs evaluates local land use amendments for consistency with Administrative Rule 9 J-5, which sets out criteria for determining when a proposed plan amendment contributes to urban sprawl, in order to comply with the mandates of Sections 163.3177 Florida Statutes, and the State Comprehensive Plan, Section 187.201, Florida Statutes. This application does not contribute to urban sprawl. This property is an isolated infill parcel surrounded by existing development in an urban area where existing public services can support the proposed development. Urban sprawl can become an issue in more remote areas than the subject property where perhaps public facilities are not available or the proposed development is not consistent with growth patterns of the area. The subject property and the proposed development does not have any of those characteristics. Villa Del Sol - LUA Application City of Boynton Beac:, Rev. December 8, 1999 c:':~~ L?

LAND USE COMPATIBILITY ANALYSIS. Compatibility means land uses that are congruous, similar and in harmony with one another because they do not create or foster undesirable health, safety or aesthetic effects arising from direct association of dissimilar, contradictory, incongruous, or discordant activities, including the impacts of intensity of use, traffic, hours of operation, aesthetics, noise, vibration, smoke, hazardous odors, radiation, function and other land use conditions. Considering that this is an infill property with existing development on all sides, compatibility will need to be addressed as part of the development planning. The proposed residential use is certainly compatible with the existing residential uses to the southwest, northwest and east. The higher density of the proposed project and the building heights will be addressed by providing buffering and setbacks that exceed code requirements. These development regulations will be evaluated and Villa Del Sol - LUA Application City of Boynton Beach Rev. December 8, 1999 C:\'" L P C\PROJECT3\'v~!~2 de!

The property is separated from the gas station by the Old Dixie Highway right-of-way in addition to the additional buffers and setbacks. The proposed project will not create or foster undesirable health, safety or aesthetic effects. The project is being planned with buildings that are constructed with a stucco finish, tile roofs, and upgraded architectural fenestration. It will be secured with a perimeter buffer consisting of a wall, fence, hedge or combination thereof along with trees and other ground cover that will buffer adjacent properties and provide an aesthetic benefit to the project and area. The residents of the project will be offered common amenities consisting of a club house and pool area, tennis courts, optional covered garages and open space with a common lake for passive recreation. is being planned to be constructed architecturally The intensity of use will be similar to the many multi-family residential developments that exist within the City along Federal Highway. The change of use from commercial to residential will be a change toward a less intensive use than what is currently approved for the property today. The proposed project traffic will be far less than the traffic that could be generated by a commercial allowed under the current land use and zoning designations. Any concerns of noise, vibration, smoke, hazardous odors, radiation, etc. are also reduced if not eliminated with the change from commercial to residential. As indicated, the proposed amendment is compatible with surrounding properties. '/1::2 DE.: So! - ~i":.':" ;.~;:<c.s.rc~ C~i~r' cf Scy:~~c;~ =i~2G:~ Rev.

NO. 99 - 331 , TO: Michael Rumpf, Planning and Zoning Director FROM: John A. Guidry, Utilities Director DATE: December 9, 1999 SUBJECT: Property located and the northwest corner of the intersection of Federal Highway and Old Dixie Highway Analysis on availability of utilities relative to Request for Rezoning In response to your memo no. PZ 99-267 we offer the following analysis: 1. The rezoning of this parcel would allow an increase of 244 residents over and above that which is allowed by current zoning. Based upon this population figure, the incremental increase for potable water demand is expected to be 48,800 gallons per day; the incremental increase for sanitary sewer demand is expected to be 21,960 gallons per day. Both of these values are based upon the City's adopted levels of service. 2. At this time, the City's water and sewage treatment facilities have sufficient reserve capacity to service this incremental increase. 3. The adequacy of water distribution and sewage collection systems proximate to the site will be evaluated as part of the site planning process. Any improvements required will be the responsibility of the site developer. I trust this response meets your needs. Please refer any additional questions on this matter to Peter Mazzella of this office. Attachment JAG/PVM Xc: File 'If" .?\L , ? r:-" rc; :nJ R " I' f D) I ~ :~! ~ U~l - . ~ : ~ I ~~ .

This letter also constitutes notification of sufficient capacity for concurrency management and comprehensive planning purposes. Capacity is available for both the coming year, and the five and ten year planning periods specified in 9J-5.005(4). As of September 30, 1998, the Authority's North County Landfills had an estimated 35,425,321 cubic yards of landfill capacity remaining. Based upon the existing Palm Beach County population, the most recently available population growth rates published by the University of Florida Bureau of Economic and Business and Research (BEBR), and projected rates of solid waste generation, waste reduction and recycling, the Solid Waste Authority forecasts that capacity will be available at the existing landfill through approximately the year 2023, assuming the depletion of the Class I and Class III landfills is balanced. The Authority continues to pursue options to increase the life of its existing facilities and to provide for all the County's current and future disposal and recycling needs. As part of its responsibility, the Authority will provide an annual statement of disposal capacity, using the most current BEBR projections available. Please provide copies of this letter to your plan review and concurrency management staff. If you have any questions or I can be of further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Redevelopment Potential As stated in the previous discussion, much of the coastal management study area is characterized by established and stable land uses. Based on a historical observation of more built-out communities funher to the south, coastal area redevelopment will probably occur on a scattered basis, and only after the regional supply of vacant land suitable for new fIrst stage development has been effectively diminished. Considering the available vacant land in both the study area and in the area west of 1-95, the potential for extensive areawide redevelopment is considered low within the ten-year planning horizon. In terms of residential activity, existing mobile home parks and a few underdeveloped multifamily shoreline properties have the greatest potential for redevelopment. This potential is highest in Planning Area 1 due to the proximity of these sites to Lake Worth and the Boynton Inlet.

Rumpf Planning and Zoning Director DATE: December 10, 1999 SUBJECT: Villa del Sol (LUAR # 99-005, CPTA # 99-002) Amendment to Comprehensive PlanText and Future Land Use Map and Rezoning PROJECT DESCRIPTION Project/Applicant: Villa del Sol/Grove Partners, L TD Agent: Bradley D. Miller, AICP Owner: Grove Partners, L TD Location: Northwest corner of the intersection ofPederal Highway (US 1) and Old Dixie Highway; the subject property is located within the expanded eRA area (see Exhibit A), File No: Land Use Amendment/Rezoning (LUAR 99-005) Text Amendment (CPT A 99-002) Property Description: Vacant property consisting of 16 acres classified Local Retail Commercial (LRC) on the Future Land Use Map and zoned C-3 (Community Commercial) Proposed change/use: To amend the Future Land Use Map from LRC to Special High Density Residential (SR), and rezone from C-3 to R- 3, Multi-family Residential. The applicant, Grove Partners, L TD, is proposing these changes in order to develop the subject property as a residential rental project named Villa del Sol. The proposed land use change qualifies as a large scale amendment pursuant to Chapter 163 F .S. This proposed amendment is being reviewed for transmittal to the Florida Department of Community Affairs (DCA). 1 Proposed change/ text amendment: After transmittal and DCA review, the proposed amendment may be scheduled for adoption in Mayor June of20tlO. , w The Comprehensive Plan text amendment will apply to Planning Area I.p., as described in Se"tion VIII, Land Use Problems and Opportunities of the Future Land Use Element Support Document (pages 89 and 90). Section VIII was adopted into the Plan by Policy 1.17.3 of the Future Land Use Element. The text currently reads as follows: "1.p. Parcels at Northwest Corner of U.S. 1 and Old Dixie Highway Due to the limited demand for commercial floor space along this segment of U.S. 1, the Coastal Management Element originally recommended that these parcels be taken out of the Local Retail Commercial land use category, and placed in the Special High Density Residential category. However, because a site plan and construction drawings for a shopping center on this site have been approved by the City, the City Commission decided to keep these parcels in the Local Retail Commercial land use category." The proposed text reads: "1.p. Parcels at Northwest Corner of U.S. 1 and Old Dixie Highway Due to the limited demand for commercial floor space along this segment of U.S. 1, an initial recommendation of the Comprehensive Plan adopted in 1989 was that these parcels be taken out of the Local Retail Commercial land use category, and placed in the Special High Density Residential category. This recommendation was not enacted because a site plan and construction drawings for a shopping center on this site have been approved by the City. The shopping center has not been developed and the site plan and construction plan approvals have expired. Therefore, these parcels should be taken out of the Local Retail Commercial land use category and placed in the Special High Density Residential category to encourage development and revitalization of this area of the City." 2 This text amendment and map amendment would allow for the conversion of the current LRC classification of the subject property to the SH classification. The SH classification, with the maximum density of 20 dwellings per acre, ociginated in the Coastal Management Element of the Comprehensive Plan to encourage infill development south of Woolbright Road; the application of this land use category is limited to the Coastal Area. In connection with this amendment, Table # 24 - Site Specific Future Land Use and Design Considerations - within the Coastal Management Support Document is to be amended to show the 16 acre increase of the SH classification (Map Area # 16). Table # 24 was adopted into the Plan by Policy 7.9.6, and in part, describes the size of the area to which the SH classification and design recommendations apply (see reference. map and Table #24 within Exhibit B). These specific design recommendations are intended to mitigate any potential impacts generated by development at this higher density. The design considerations include expanded setbacks, which increase with building height (e.g. 3- story -75 feet, and 4- story - 100 feet). Logically, if the SH area is expanded to include the subject property, the corresponding design recommendations should apply to the new area, and Table #24 should be revised to accurately describe the property within map Area # 16.

These criteria are required to be part of a staff analysis when the proposed change includes an amendment to the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map. a. Whether the proposed rezoning would be consistent with applicable comprehensive plan policies including but not limited to, a prohibition against any increase in dwelling unit density exceeding 50 in the hurricane evacuation zone without written approval of the Palm Beach County Emergency Planning Division and the City's risk manager. The planning department shall also recommend limitations or requirements, which would have to be imposed on subsequent development of the property, in order to comply with policies contained in the comprehensive plan. With regard to the aforementioned written approvals of the Palm Beach County Emergency Planning Division and the City's risk manager, there is an inconsistency between the criteria specified in the Land Development Regulations and the Comprehensive Plan. Pursuant to the Comprehensive Plan Policy 1.12.1, such written approvals are required if the proposed density increase results in the increase of 50 or more dwelling units. Since the proposed density increase for the subject property will result in a potential increase of 148 dwelling units, the application will be forwarded to the Palm Beach County Emergency Planning Division for review. The proposed rezoning is generally consistent with Comprehensive Plan objectives and policies regarding compatibility of the proposed land use classification with adjacent land uses, the availability of service capacity, and the Comprehensive Plan's projected surplus of commercial land. In particular, the proposed amendment /rezoning must comply with the following policies: 1. Policies requiring the consistency with the Coastal Management Element and encouraging infill development compatible with the Community Redevelopment Plan: Policy 1.9.1 (Future Land Use Element) - "Implement the land use and redevelopment policies contained within the Coastal Management Element" Policy 1.13.3(Future Land Use Element) - "Encourage infill development and redevelopment by adopting and implementing the Community Redevelopment Plans, and the policies contained in the Coastal Management Element". 4 The subject property is located within the Coastal Area as described ! within the Coastal Management Element Support Documents. The SH classification was established in the Plan to encourage development and redevelopment in the Coastal Management Area (see Exhibit C - except from Future Land Use Support Document). The subject property, as indicated in the Comprehensive Plan text, was originally recommended for the proposed SH designation. 2. Policies calling for monitoring of commercial land uses for consistency with demand for such uses: Policy 1.19.6 (Future Land Use Element) - "...do not allow commercial acreage which is qreater than the demand which has been proiected..." Policy 1,19.7 (Future Land Use Element) - "In areas where the demand for commercial uses will not increase, particularly in the Coastal Area, subsequent to Plan adoption change the land use and zoning to permit only residential or other non- commercial uses". The replacement of this commercial use with a residential classification is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan, as the analysis of data in the Coastal Management Support Document does not project an increase of demand for commercial uses in that area. The Plan recommends, where appropriate, the replacement of commercial uses with residential uses. The results of the analysis - a suggested surplus of commercial land- are consistent with the history of the subject property: it was never developed within its current Local Retail Commercial designation, in spite of the previous site plan approval for a shopping center. Staff has not evaluated the current demand for commercial uses: however, the Commercial Needs Assessment report, completed by the Palm Beach County Planning Division in August of 1999, provides future (2015) projections of need for commercial space and compares the need to the existing and potential supply. According to the study, the subject area shows a surplus of both retail and office space. 3. The following additional objectives and policies addressed below are either typically referenced by the Florida Department of Community Affairs (DCA), or required by them to be analyzed in the review of proposed amendments: 5 Obiective 1.2 (Future Land Use Element - "Coordinate future land uses with soil conditions so that urban land uses are prohibited in , locations where it is not 'economical to remove or treat unsuitable soils..."; and ~ Policy 1.2.2(Future Land Use Element- "...prohibit development of urban land uses where the removal or treatment of unsuitable soils would be uneconomical, provide that unstable soils shall be removed in all construction and land development sites where soils would affect the performance of infrastructure, drainage... " No extreme soil conditions are known to be characteristic of this property. Furthermore, policies such as those above will ensure the use of proper development techniques. Ob;ective 4.4(Conservation Element) - "The City shall, .....protect all remaining areas of substantive native upland and wetland vegetation and eliminate undesirable exotic tree species. "; Policy 4.5.1 (Conservation Element) - "In the event that a site survey indicates the existence of a representative plant of animal species designated as endangered or threatened on Federal, State or Florida Committee on Rare and Endangered Plants and Animal lists, the developer shall prepare a plan in consultation with the Florida Game and Freshwater Fish Commission and the Us. Fish and Wildlife Services for protecting the resident population. Preservation should be provided to the satisfaction of the City Planning Staff in consultation with the Federal and State agencies. " Policy 1.11.14 (Future Land Use Element) - "... providefor open space preservation by requiring the preservation of25% of all "A ", HE", and "C" rated sites... ". Except for the trees shown on the survey, the site has been predominately cleared of vegetation. The site is not listed as a natural resource area (an "A", "B" or "C" site) in the Conservation Element of the Comprehensive Plan and there are no wetlands or known wildlife on the property. However, actions indicated in policy 4.5.1. will be undertaken should a subsequent site survey prove otherwise. Obiective 1. 11 (Future Land Use Element) - "... future land uses shall include provisions for the protection of ...archeological resources and historic buildings..." There are no archeological amenities known to exist on the subject property. 6 b. Whether the proposed rezoning would be contrary to the established land use pattern, or would create an',isolated district unrelated to adjacent and nearby districts, or would constitute a grant of special privilege to an individual property owner as contrasted with the protection of the public welfare. The proposed rezoning is reasonably consistent with the established land use patterns. The adjacent properties are predominantly zoned residential, except for the two C-3-zoned parcels to the north-and southeast of the subject property. However, the first of the two properties is developed as the Homing Inn - a use equivalent to high density residential. Although the proposed amendment represents a rather extreme contrast in intensity compared to the adjacent single family homes, enhanced setbacks and buffering would minimize direct impacts, and traffic impacts should be minimal as the adjacent neighborhoods are isolated without through streets, and project traffic will predominantly follow a direct route to US-1 . c. Whether changed or changing conditions make the proposed rezoning desirable. After the attempt to develop a shopping center on the subject property failed, it has remained vacant for over 10 years. Based on this history and the request to rezone the subject property, its commercial value may be declining. The proposed zoning is also desirable in view of the increasingly active efforts to redirect development from areas next to the Everglades towards Southeast Florida's existing urban core. The Eastward Ho! initiative, which focuses on such efforts, was recommended by the Governor's Commission for a Sustainable South Florida in its October 1995 Initial Report (see Exhibit D). Given the high population growth projected for the next decade, one of the program's main objectives is for the eastern urban restoration and redevelopment to capture a greatest possible percentage of that projected growth. Accordingly, Palm Beach County proposes increased concentrations of residential uses within this area. Moreover, higher density residential uses are also more efficient, particularly in terms of infrastructure, which makes the proposed reclassification and rezoning consistent with the Eastward Hol goal of advancing the efficient use of land. Higher densities and increased populations (particular of a diverse age and income class) in eastern areas will provide support for economic revitalization and downtown redevelopment. d. Whether tI,e proposed rezoning would be compatible with utility systems, roadways, and other public facilities. 7 to a comprehensive plan, and that the maximum potential demand upon public facilities be determined. The following Comprehensive Plarl'policies specify general requirements concerning the availability of services, in particular with regard to infill development as in the case of the subject property: Policy 7.3.3. (Future Land Use Element} - ". ..limit the type, intensity, extent and location of land uses to those which the traffic generated by same can be accommodated ... without exceeding the levels of service set forth... " Policy 7.4.4. {Future Land Use Element} - "...limit the type, intensity, extent and location of land uses to those which the traffic generated by same can be accommodated by the potable water system..." Policy 1.4.5. (Future Land Use Element) - " residential densities shall not be increased above those which were assumed in projecting water demand in the Potable Water Sub-Element unless it can be demonstrated that capacity will be obtained by reducing the land use density or intensity elsewhere... " Policy 7,5.4. {Future Land Use Element} - ".. . limit the type, intensity, extent and location of land uses to those which the traffic generated by same can be accommodated by the sanitary sewer system... " Policy 1.5.5. {Future Land Use Element} -" residential densities shall not be increased above those which were assumed in projecting sewer flows in the Potable Water Sub-Element unless it can be demonstrated that capacity will be obtained by reducing the land use density or intensity elsewhere... " Policy 3.A.5. 7. (Sanitary Sewer Sub-Element) "In fill development and redevelopment will be encouraged only in areas presently served adequately by sanitary sewer facilities". Policy 3.e.5.1. (Potable Water Sub-Element) "In fill development and redevelopment will be encouraged only in areas presently served adequately by potable water facilities". Policy 1 .5.5. has been determined to be unrealistic and overly restrictive as it would prevent any intensification of land use changes despite the 8 magnitude of change or facility capacity. The EAR recommended that this policy be deleted and that the intent be addressed by the 1 modification of Policy 1.5.4: to include "density" as a development characteristic tied to capacity. The following facilities were analyzed in order to ensure that capacity is available: 1) Roads: The traffic statement has been submitted and indicates that the proposed amendment will represent a reduction of 6,412 average daily trips and therefore lower demand on the immediate roadway network (see Exhibit H). Moreover, the location and the proposed zoning qualify the subject property for Coastal Residential Exception under the Palm Beach County Traffic Performance Standards Ordinance (Section 15. (I) L). The Coastal Residential exception to the level of service requirements as defined by the subject ordinance is a policy tool intended to promote urban infill and redevelopment, and deter urban sprawl. It allows residential projects located in the area delineated by the ordinance to receive a Site Specific Development Order notwithstanding the standards set by the said ordinance. Consequently, the submitted traffic statement will be submitted to the County for informational purposes only. 2) Water/Sewer: The City's Utility Department reviewed the proposed amendment and indicated that water and sewer capacities are available to serve the maximum demands to be generated on this site (see Exhibit E). 3) Solid Waste: The Solid Waste Authority issues an annual notice relative to operating capacity. Ample capacity currently exist to serve the future solid waste collection and disposal needs generated on this site. This limited, non-quantitative review by the Solid Waste Authority is provided through a standard letter that they request be used for availability of facility analysis until subsequent notice is received from them (see Exhibit F). 4) Drainage: An analysis of drainage facilities from the Lake Worth Drainage District is pending. Development of this site must comply with both the City's drainage requirements and those imposed by the Lake Worth Drainage District: and 5) Recreation: The reclassification to SH represents an increase of 147 dwelling units above that considered for residential development 9 within the current designation and zoning. This increase equates to an estimated 243 persons (14? units multiplied by 1.65 persons per unit, an average number of persons per household in this Census tract as estimated by Palm Beach 'County). a) NEIGHBORHOOD PARKS - The 1989 Comprehensive Plan designated 20 different geographic areas for evaluating level of service for neighborhood parks. The proposed amendment site is located in area # 18. Neighborhood park levels of service will likely be met on site. As with nearly all comparable coastal area developments, on site recreation facilities will likely include open space, gym, swimming pool and possibly tennis courts. Furthermore, a recreation impact fee will be collected at the site plan review stage which will contribute to the construction/improvement of recreation resources which serve the area. b) DISTRICT PARKS - The needs analysis for district parks was updated as part of the EAR. Using the adopted level of service standard of 2.5 acres per 1,000 persons, the City, in 1996, experienced a surplus of 10 acres of district parks. The proposed amendment will not have a negative impact on adopted LOS standards. c) RECREATION FACILITIES - The 1989 Comprehensive Plan adopted LOS standards for 18 recreation facilities. The EAR updated the needs analysis for these facilities and found them to meet or exceed the adopted LOS standards. The proposed amendment will provide recreation amenities on site. The adopted LOS will not be adversely impacted. E) SCHOOLS - Palm Beach County School Board has been notified and review is pending. e. Whether the proposed rezoning would be compatible with current and future use of adjacent and nearby properties, or would affect property values of adjacent properties. Changing the land use and zoning for this site represents a slight deintensification of the property compared to the current permitted commercial use, as traffic generation is projected to decrease. The proposed residential use is generally consistent with the abutting residential properties except for the existing commercial development to 10 the south and the contrast in densities. As for compatibility with adjacent uses regarding the propo~ed SH classification, the special design considerations will be applied to this classification to offset the potential impacts of the higher densrty upon adjacent properties. It should be noted that the actual densities vary greatly along the City's coastal area, ranging between 18.8 dwellings units per acre to 45.7 dwellings per acre (including a number of residential developments south of Woolbright Road) as documented in the Comprehensive Plan (see Exhibit G). According to the Plan, the Colonial Club condominiums east of the subject property have a legal, non-conforming density of 21 dwelling units per acre. f. whether the property is physically and economically developable under the existing zoning. Since a shopping center has previously been approved for the site, it is not likely that any unique physical constraints would limit development. However, under the current Local Retail Commercial land used designation, the subject property has been vacant for over 10 years. This indicates that even though it is physically developable, its development, either as a commercial property, or a residential development at a conventional High Density Residential classification with a density of 10.8 units per acre. has not been economically feasible. g. whether the proposed rezoning is of a scale which is reasonably related to the needs of the neighborhood and the city as a whole. Criteria for evaluating the relationship between the proposed amendments and development related to the needs of the neighborhood and the City include service demands, density, use, value and accomplishment of, and consistency with, Comprehensive Plan policies. As indicated above, ample capacity exists to serve the maximum potential service needs generated by this proposed project, and the maximum density is midway between the densities existing throughout the City's coastal area. The amendment request would comply with the initial intent of the Comprehensive Plan through the residential development of this area. The adjacent property values would be enhanced through application of the more stringent design standards for the proposed project. Also, as indicated in the Palm Beach County Commercial Needs Assessment Report of August 1999, a surplus of commercial space exists in the area and extends north to Boynton Beach Boulvard, west to 1- 95 and south well beyond the City's limits (to the Palm Beach County border). The total surplus of the retail and office space for this area has been 11 estimated to be 1,927,830 square feet, based on comparison of the 2015 estimates of need and the existing and potential supply. , h. Whether there are adequate sites elsewhere in the city for the proposed use, in districts where such use is already allowed. No vacant parcels of equal or similar size with designations allowing densities over 10.8 dwelling units per acre and with a similar location - close to U.S. 1 and the Intracoastal Waterway - are currently available in either of these locations. The multiple parcels currently classified SH (e.g. Gentleman Jim's/Merkel's), has recently been assembled and is anticipated to soon be the subject of a site plan application by a different party. RECOMMENDATION The Planning and Zoning Division recommends that the applications submitted by Grove Partners, LTD for Special High Density Residential land use and R-3 (High Density Residential) zoning be approved, based on the following: 1. The proposed amendments and zoning would be consistent with Comprehensive Plan objectives and policies; 2. The proposed amendments would not be contrary to the established land use pattern, nor would they create an isolated district unrelated to adjacent and nearby districts, and nor would it constitute a grant of special privileges to an individual property; 3. The proposed land use and zoning would be compatible with capacities of utility systems, roadways, and other public facilities; 4. The proposed land use and zoning would be compatible with the current and future use of adjacent and nearby properties, and would not affect negatively the property values of adjacent or nearby properties; 5. The proposed land use and zoning relates in a reasonable way to the needs of the neighborhood and the City as a whole; 6. The proposed land use and zoning is consistent with the goals and policies of the Eastward Ho! movement, which seeks to revitalize 12 urban areas, contain urban sprawl and promote infill and redevelopment. I ? 7. The value of the propbsed residential rental project which would target higher income households, will significantly increase the eRA area tax base. This recommendation is subject to the conditions of approval listed in Exhibit "I", which require that the text amendment includes corresponding site specific design considerations within Table 24 intended to reduce the appearance of density from adjacent rights-of-way and adjacent properties. Such design requirements include the following: 1. Variable north and south setbacks based on project height (e.g. north side adjacent to residential district only; 1 story - 40 feet; 2 stories - 45 feet; 3 stories - 60 feet; and 4 story - 100 feet. South side adjacent to residential district, only; 1 story - 40 feet; 2 stories - 50 feet; 3 stories - 75 feet; 4 stories - 100 feet). 2. Perimeter landscaping on the north and south sides shall be both visually pleasing and shall include at minimum, a hedge, 1 canopy tree spaced no greater than 20 feet, and additional landscaping of varying height placed between rights-of-way shall include a small serpentine berm varying in height. The landscaping should include a combination of palm and deciduous/canopy trees densely spaced with a diversity of plant materials from ground covers at varying height placed within the buffer. 3. Signage shall be compatible (in scale) with adjacent residential properties and be designed in conjunction with materials to be repeated along the perimeter such as posts, fence elements, small monument features, etc. J:ISHRDATAIPLANNINGlSHAREDlWPIPROJECTSlVllLA DEL SOL CPTA & lUARIVllLADElSOlSTAFFREPORT.DOC 13 FUTU~E: LAND USE r..AP COMPREHENSIVE PLAN, CITY OF BOYNTON BEACH Present future land use map designations of subject property and abutting properties . j ~-7 t:J ~- , ~ I I {- .

The segment of u.s. 1 near the southern eit} limit currently contains a significant number of vacant parcels, obsolete buildings, and marginal commercial uses. In order to upgrade the properties fronting on U.S.~l, the Coastal Management Element recommend~ that the existing Local Ret?il land use category be maintained, rather than permitting heavy commercial uses. Heavy commercial uses would be limited to the parcels which front on Old Dixie Highway. In order to absorb some of the commercial acreage along u.s. 1, the coastal Management Element recommends that new car sales be allowed on the C-3 zoned property south of Old Dixie Highway, on parcels that have a minimum area of 2 acres. There are several parcels and areas where increased residential densities are recommended, in order to encourage infill development. There are two small parcels, of 1.6 acres and 1.2 acres, located on the north side of Dimmick Road and at the end of Las Palmas Avenue, where it is recommended that the land use category be changed from Low Density (4.84 dwellings per acre) to High Density Residential (lO~ dwellings per acre). These density increases are contingent on limiting development to two-story townhouses. ~ In order to encourage infill development south of Woolbright Road, the Coastal Management Element recommends that the density be increased on the largest remaining vacant multiple-family parcels. currently, the maximum residential density in the City is 10.8 dwellings per acre. The Coastal Management Element recommends that a Special High Density land use category be created, with a maximum density of 20 dwellings per acre. The application of this land use category would be limited to the Coast?' Area, however. The parcel in question is located along the Intracoastc Waterway and is partly occupied by mangroves. Although the mangroves ar~ protected by law, it would be possible for this density to be transferred to the upland portions of this property. It is also recommended, in this e ement, that residential densities of up to 40 dwellings per acre be permitted in the CBD zoning district, and that this density be applied 1n addition to the commercial intensity which is permitted in the CBO zoning district. Many of the existing multi-family projects in the Coastal Area exceed the maximum density which is shown on the Future Land Use Plan. The High Density Residential category of the land use plan allows for densities up to 10.8 dwellings per acre, whereas existing multi-family projects have densities which range from 17 to 46 dwellings per acre. It is recommended in the Coastal Management Element as well as in this element that the perpetuation of these projects at their existing densities be permitted, for two reasons: First, because public facilities in the Coastal Area are sufficient to serve these densities; and second, because classifying these densities as non-conforming makes it difficult for potential buyers of these units to obtain mortgages, which creates a hardship for the existing owners, who are often elderly persons with moderate incomes. It is not desirable, however, for the City to create higher-density land use categories to accommodate the existing density cf these projects, since it would then be possible for property owners in other areas of the City to request the same density.
