Tambri J HeYden'7fjiL Planning and Zoning Director DATE. June 5, 1996 SUBJECT Quantum Park - USAP 96-002 Use Approval (Used car dealership) NATURE OF REQUEST James G Willard of Shutts & Bowen, agent for Quantum Associates, property owners of Quantum Park, a planned industrial development (pm), is requesting use approval for a used car dealership to be added to the list of permitted uses for Quantum Park. Quantum Corporate Park is a 539.9 acre development of regional impact (DR!) that is generally located west of the intersection of High Ridge Road and Gateway Boulevard (see Exhibit "A" - location map and master plan) Specifically, the applicant is seeking to amend the list of permitted uses at the Quantum Park pm to allow used car sales on only certain lots; lots 76, 77, 78, 79 and 80 (see Exhibit "B" - letter of request and a proposed conceptual site plan) BACKGROUND The future land use map designation of Quantum Park is Industrial. The current master plan indicates lots 76, 77, 78 and 79 are approved for industrial uses and lot 80 is located in the abutting 13.93 acre property, known as the PCD Center, zoned Planned Commercial Development (PCD) A rezoning of the PCD Center, that encompasses lot 80, to PID to join it with the Quantum Park DRI and master plan is also being processed simultaneously In addition, a separate application is also being processed to amend the Quantum Park DR! and master plan to relocate commercially designated lots within Quantum Park and designate numerous industrial lots with an option for commercial use. This separate master plan modification includes changing the use designation for the subject lots (76, 77, 78 and 79) from industrial to commercial/industrial. The rezoning of the PCD Center, which includes lot 80, proposes commerciallindustrialland use, rather than the current office classification. The applicant has provided a description of the operation of the proposed use, see attached Exhibit "C" - The CarMax Story Pursuant to Chapter 2 - Zoning, Section 7.E , of the Land Development Regulations, in a pm, a building and its customary ancillary structures and land uses may be erected, altered and occupied for any office, professional, business (wholesale and retail), educational institution or adult entertainment use in accordance with Section II.M. of the zoning code or industrial use, provided that such use or uses is/ are approved by the Planning and Development Board. To approve such a use, the Planning and Development Board must make findings that the proposed use will not be in conflict with the performance standards listed in Section 4.N of the zoning regulations, and that the use proposed is consistent with the intent and purpose of the planned industrial development district. ANALYSIS The intent and purpose of the planned industrial development, as specified in Chapter 2 - Zoning, Section 7.A, is as follows. INTENT AND PURPOSE. "A planned industrial development district (PID) is established. The purpose of this district is to provide a zoning classification for light industrial development that will better satisfy current demands for light industrial zoned lands by encouraging development which will reflect changes in the technology of land development and relate the development of land to the specific site and to I Page 2 Memorandum No 96-309 Quantum Park - USAP 96-002 conserve natural amenities. Regulations for the PID are intended to accomplish a more desirable environment for industrial development in relation to existing andlor future city development, permit economies in providing public services, allow for economies of scale in industrial development, and to promote the public health, safety, convenience, welfare and good government of the City of Boynton Beach." All uses located within the city shall conform to the performance standards set forth, and shall be constructed, maintained and operated so as not to be a nuisance or hazard to persons, animals, vegetation or property located on adjacent or nearby properties or right- of-way; or to interfere with the reasonable use or enjoyment of adjacent or nearby property by reason of noise, vibration, smoke, dust, or other particulate matter; toxic or noxious matter; odor, glare, heat or humidity; radiation, electromagnetic interference, fire or explosive hazard, liquid waste discharge, or solid waste accumulation. Furthermore, no use shall be carried out so as to create any nuisance or hazard which is in violation of any applicable federal, state, county or city law or permit, and all such laws and permits are adopted as performance standards in these zoning regulations. To evaluate the Chapter 2, Section 4.N , Performance Standards of the Land Development Regulations, the applicant has prepared a response that addresses each of the eleven standards. The responses are found in Exhibit "D" - CarMax/Performance Standards. An analysis of the applicant's responses indicates that the project will demonstrate compliance with the performance standards. However, regarding handling and storing of hazardous materials (reference the underground fuel storage tank) and generation of hazardous waste (reference car service, detailing and changing vehicle fluids, such as motor oil, antifreeze, brake and transmission fluids), environmental review is recommended. Regarding noise, the applicant indicates that no loud speakers or paging systems would be used. The total acreage of the five lots requested for this use is approximately 17 11 acres. The five (5) lots are located south of Gateway Boulevard, east of Park Ridge Boulevard and west of the CSZT railroad and 1-95 (see Exhibit "A" - location map) Generally when a use is requested for use approval within a planned district it is applicable to all lots within the district, or depending on the master plan, all lots with a specific land use designation with the planned district. However, the applicant, in this case is only requesting one such use within the PID For this reason and to illustrate the magnitude of the use, a summary of the characteristics of the use on the five lots proposed for this use is provided below. i. A separate ingresslegress on Park Ridge Boulevard for loading and unloading used vehicles, ii. a main building of approximately 33,300 square feet, with a detached service/detailing building approximately 9,200 square feet, iii. a 214 vehicle parking lot with direct ingress/egress to Park Ridge Boulevard for employee and visitor parking, iv a vehicle use area for storage of 472 vehicles being processed and/or being serviced and v a 434 parking space lot for display of vehicles for sale. For purposes of comparison of this use in other zoning districts, it is noted that used car sales are only allowed, subject to conditional use approval, within the General Commercial (C-4) conventional zoning district. As illustrated on the attached Exhibit "E" - location map of all C-4 zoning districts, there are four (4), C-4 zoning districts within the city One of the four has frontage on an arterial road. It is located on both sides of US#1 between the north boundary of the Central Business District and the L WDD Canal C-16. The other C-4 districts are located near the FEC railway; two north of Boynton Beach Boulevard, one small section on the east side and, the other on the west side of the FEC Railway The remaining C-4 zoning district is located on the east side of Old Dixie Highway, north of Gulfstream Boulevard. With the exception of the latter, C-4 zoned area, these C-4 zoned areas are too small to locate this use of this magnitude. Regarding the C-4 zoned area on Old Dixie Highway, the Comprehensive Plan, Future Land Use Element, Section VIII. Land Use Problems and Opportunities, Section 1 q of the plan recommends that the city ~ Page 3 Memorandum No. 96-309 Quantum Park - USAP 96-002 encourage new automobile dealerships for the parcels which front on Old Dixie Highway within Planning Area 1 q (see Exhibit "F" - excerpts comprehensive plan) Even though the plan discusses acquisition and development of properties on Old Dixie Highway with the C-3 zoned parcels on the west side of Federal Highway, because of the magnitude of this "super store", it would not be feasible, and most likely not possible to assemble the acreage needed to satisfy the somewhat unusual characterics of this use. As stated earlier, the purpose of the pm is to satisfy current demands which reflect changes in the technology of land development and relate the development of land to the specific site. RECOMMENDATION The Planning and Zoning Department recommends that the list of permitted uses for the Quantum Corporate Park PID be amended to include used car dealership, subject to the following conditions. i. rezoning of the PCD Center to PID, ii. approval of the pending DRI amendment and Quantum Park master plan that would change the land use designation on lots 77, 78 and 79 from industrial to industrial/commercial and change the land use designation of lot 80 from office to industrial/commercial, iii. compliance with the Quantum Park DR! development order, iv environmental review, v limiting the use to lots 77, 78, 79 and 80, vi. that the loadinglunloading area and the servicelstaging area designated on the preliminary site plan be identified as storage area and limited to fifteen (15) percent of the site as limited by the PID regulations (section 7.E.1) Further, it is recommended that these areas be screened from view to the public by enclosing them on all sides, except for ingress/egress with a solid six foot tall concrete or masonry wall that includes a 10 foot wide dense vegetation buffer on the outside of the wall (buffer to include upper, mid and low level landscape material) rather than fencing the areas. The recommended 10 foot wide landscape buffer may be included within the width of the required peripheral greenbelt. vii. submittal of a master plan modification, pursuant to a previous approval condition, for the required peripheral pm greenbelts - this site is a peripheral pm site and it is recommended that prior to site plan submittal for this use that such a master plan modification be approved to include dense vegetation comprised of upper, mid and low level landscape material along the 1-95 frontage of the site including the area west of the existing Quantum Corporate Park freestanding sign, and viii. prohibition of exterior loud speakers or exterior paging systems installed on site. These conditions and recommendations are offered, in light of the conditional use approval that would normally be required for this use located in the C-4 zoning district. With these conditions and recommendations, staff finds the proposed use will conform with the City's zoning code performance standards, and the intent and purpose of the pm district.

Piecemeal annexation of the developed Single-family subdivisions in the vicinity of Old Dixie Hiqhway, however, may not he practical Annexation of the Single-family subdivisions should be by referendum or other legal means for annexing the entire neighborhood In the interim, the City should request that Palm Beach Count~ limit the use of this area to Single-family dwellings Existing land uses along the U S. 1 frontage are predominantly retail, consequently, a Local Retail Commercial land use designation and C-3 Community Commercial zoning category are appropriate, both for lots which are presently in the City and those which will be annexed. These land use controls will improve the aesthetics along U S. 1 and create a retail-oriented corridor The lots along Old Dixie Highway, by contrast, are not as suitable for retail use, and therefore should be placed in a General Commercial land use category and C-4 zoning district An appropriate use for commercial property in this area would be new car dealerships The City should adopt site regulations for new car dealerShips, which would include a minimum lot area of 2 acres The City should encourage this type of land use at this location, and should encourage the acquisition and development of properties fronting on Old Dixie Highway, as a part of the development of lots which front on U S 1 The Single-family subdivisions in the vicinity of Old Dixie Highway, if annexed should be placed in the Medium Density Residential land use category and maintained primarily as a single-family neighborhood, with single-family and duplex zoning on the lots immediately abutting the FEC tracks There are two portions of the Killian's Park subdivision, along Miller Road, which should be construed to be in the Local Retail (lots 9-14 and 16-20) and General Commercial (lots 21-29) land use categories, if development of these properties complies with the conditions set forth in the coastal Management Element Commercial projects which are adjacent to the single-family neighborhood should be designed so as to minimize the impacts to this neighborhood, consistent with the recommendations contained in the Coastal Management Element 1 r Incorporated and Unincorporated Pro'Dertv at Southern End of Citv. between U.S. 1 and Intracoastal Waterway This area is subdivided and largely developed, and consists almost entirely of unincorporated property Palm Beach County zoning allows commercial development alonq U S 1 and residential development to the east of this commercial strip The city should proceed with the annexation of the commercial properties 66 JD EXHIBIT "G" Conditions of Approval Project name File number Quantum Park PID USAP 96-002 DEPARTMENTS INCLUDE I REJECT PUBLIC WORKS I Comments NONE UTILITIES Comments NONE FIRE Comments NONE POLICE I Comments NONE ENGINEERING DIVISION I Comments NONE BUILDING DIVISION I Comments NONE PARKS AND RECREATION I Comments NONE FORESTER/ENVIRONMENTALIST Comments NONE PLANNING AND ZONING Comments 1 Used car sales use approval is subject to approval of rezoning of PCD Center to PID 2 Used car sales use approval is subject to approval of the change in land use designation of lots 77, 78 and 79 from industrial to industrial/commercial and lot 80 from office to industrial/commercial 3 Used car sales use approval is subject to compliance with the Quantum Corporate Park DRI development order 4 Used car sales is subject to environmental review 5 Used car sales use approval is limited to lots 77, 78, 79 and 80 J./ Page 2 Use Approval Quantum Park P1D USAP 96-002 I DEPARTMENTS 6 The loading/ unloading area and the service/staging area designated on the preliminary site plan shall be identified as storage area and limited to fifteen (15) percent of the site as specified in the P1D regulations (Section 7 E 1) Further, it is recommended that these areas be screened from public view by enclosing them on all sides, except for ingress/egress, with a solid six foot tall concrete or masonry wall that includes a 10 foot wide dense vegetative buffer on the outside of the wall (buffer to include upper, mid and low level landscape material) rather than fencing the areas The recommended 10 foot wide landscape buffer may be included within the width of the required peripheral greenbelt 7 Prior to site plan submittal of the CarMax, submit a master plan modification, pursuant to a previous approval condition, for the required peripheral PID greenbelts to include dense vegetation comprised of upper, mid and low level landscape material along the 1-94 frontage of the site including the area west of the existing Quantum Park freestanding sign 9 Exterior loud speakers and exterior paging systems installed on site are prohibited ADDITIONAL PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT BOARD CONDITIONS 1 To be determined ADDITIONAL CITY COMMISSION CONDITIONS 1 To be determined TJH/dim a ComDept Qua ~~ I INCLUDE I REJECT I
