Strong market demand for residential mixed use discourages suburban spr:Jwl by creating compact urban areas within the City and its utility service area The preferred form of development which would result is the creation of a new village As a mixed use project. innovative methods of regulating land development can be used to customize the master plan based on the surrounding land uses. Adjacent land uses currently include residential, City park land a water management tract, office, Industrial, commercial and a hotel A new high school is now within walking distance of the proposed rrllxed use The mixed use area is immediately adjacent to a footbridge across the lake to existing employment opportunrties The pedestrian and bicycle systems within the park will connect thIS mixed use area to other developments throughout Qu~ntum Park, as well as Ct:mnections to a regional TriRail facility encouraging alternate methods of transportation A PARTNERSHIP OF PROFESSIONAL ASSOCIATIONS 712 1I S.

PUBLIC WORKS (General) - Comment: None PUBLIC WORKS (Traffic) - Comment: see attached Memorandum dated. January 16, 2001 (Exhibit "A") Response As stated, Quantum Park is "vested" with a certain numtler of trips The required analysis, as such, should only revolve around whether the proposal will exceed such trips As such, the suggested request is not warranted and should be deleted SeE! also additional comments in the attached letter dated January 22,2001 from Kahart Pinder UTiliTIES - 2.1 Comment: On the surface, the request to change the zoning on Lots" through 11 and Lots 23 through 31 (a total of 14 lots) from Office & Industrial to Mixed Use, seems simple enough Response See response in Exhibit A attached hereto A PARTNERSHIP OF PROFESSIONAL ASSOCIATIONS 712 U. s.

Response The issue of the recreation dedication requirement has been previously discussed and dealt with by the City Commission with respect to the Grotto Bay site plan approval for Quantum Park & Village, LLC Based upon the discussions and determinations at that time, our response to this comment is in several parts as follows A. At least 272 units (the number of units in the Grotto Bay project) were determined to be exempt from this requirement by the City Commission- Therefore, at the most, the units in this comment should be reduced to 728 B The discussion and expression of intent by the City Commission was th~lt Quantum Park in general should be exempt from the recreation dedication credit. The discussion by the Commission was that Quantum Park had provided more in the form of recreation and other benefits to the City to satisfy any potential recreation dedication requirement and therefore, no further requirement should be requested with respect thereto. C Even if the recreation dedication applies, Quantum Park should be entitled to the credit for the natural resource preservation as provided for in the Code, which credit, based upon the natural resources provided in Quantum Park would totally exceed any requirement as discussed in this comment, as such credit would be calculated as one quarter of the acres qualifying in Quantum Park in general- 11 Comment: If the property is not required to be platted, the recreation dedication fee will be due prior to the building permit being issued Response We would make the same arguments as set forth in #10 above. In addition, the Code clearly provides that any recreation dedication fee is to be paid at the time of platting and does not provide for any other time frame Based upon that clear provision, if the requirement remains at all, it should only be reqUired to be paid at the time any plat is recorded 12 Comment: Provide to the Parks Division at the close of the construction contract as-built plans showing locations of irrigation lines in the rights-of-ways and medians. Response We cannot find any basis in the Code or otherwise to justify any such requirement. A PARTNERSHIP OF PROFESSIONAL ASSOCIATIONS 712 U S. HIGHWAY ONE. SUITE 400. P.O BOX 1314&.

Absent such a reqUirement being contained in the Code or in the Florida Statutes, the requirement is inappropriate In addition, see responses In Exhibit A and in letter from Winston Lee 21 Comment: Indicate the target market for the residential units Response: See response in Exhibit A attached hereto 22 Comment: In accordance with Chapter 2, Section 7, a Master Site Plan will be required for this mixed use pod A mixed use pod, when complete, will have all following uses a) Multi-family residential b) Commercial/retail c) Office/professional Response' See response in letter from Winston Lee dated January 2~~, 2001 23 Comment: Staff recommends that the NOpe/Master Plan approval include a condition which requires a minimum of 20 acres of land designated as mixed use be developed with the full mix of commercial/retail/and office before the additional 500 units of residential may be constructed. Response We would make the same responses set forth in paragraph #20 above In addition, I find no basis for any municipality being able to dictate the timing of the particular development of a project. Such a requirement would be unprecedented and without justification. As it has been clearly stated to City staff and the City Commission, the development of this project and Quantum Park in general is and will continue to be dictated by the market. To reqUire anything else would essentially jeopardize the continued and successful development of Quantum Park. I do not believe the City Commission has expressed any desire to get involved in such management or ownership decision making 24 Comment: Approval of the Master Plan is contingent upon the applicant filing for and receiving approval for a text amendment to the Comprehensive Plan to permit residential use in the Industnalland use category Response.

These proposed uses are consistent with the local comprehensive plan as described in Policy I 16. t> "Industnal" and '"Local Retail Commercial" 20 Preliminary site plans are not required at this stage. The proposed use designation change to ""mixed use" is for lots 23 through 39, which currently are use designated "office"" and for lots 7 through II, wluch are currently use designated as ....office or industrial" Therefore. the use design.a:tion request for lots 23 through 39 does not affect any industrial use. The use designati~n for lots 7 through 11 does not require any industrial usage. It is the owner's prerogative to select uses on the lots. Therefore, since industrial usage was not a requited use. nor the sole use allowed for Jots 7 through 11, these is no need 10 jXovi~ an updated land use distribution or need5 and supply dam from within the comprehensive plan. 22.

The following responds to the City Comments for the above referenced project. Comment 1 This comment requests detailed level of service analysis and traffic data for existing and future condition Response The purpose of the NOPC traffic analysis is to determine if the proposed change results in a substantial deviation Florida Statutes (F S ) Chapter 38006 Section (19)(b) 15 states that "A 15% increase in the number of external vehicle trips generated by the development above that which was projected during the original development-of-regional-impact review" constitutes a substantial deviation The data and analysis demonstrates that the proposed plan represents a decrease in Daily, AM peak hour and PM peak hour trip generation from the original development-of regional-impact review Therefore, the proposed change is not a substantial deviation and, intersection and roadway link analyses for existing and future conditions are not required Comment 18.a Office square footage is inconsistent between the Traffic Analysis and the Master Plan Response The square footage shown on the Master Plan is the maximum that cannot be exceeded The traffic analysis presents the proposed development plan Comment 18.b Total square footage is inconsistent between the traffic analysis and the Master Plan Response The square footages shown on the Master Plan are the maximums that cannot be exceeded The traffic analysis presents the proposed development plan In addition, the theater is shown as seats in the traffic analysis and not included in the total square footage on the Master Plan Letter Rumpf 00-204 1 22-01 Pi Mr Michael Rumpf Re: Quantum Park NOPC # 11 - #PTCOO-204 January 22, 2001 Page 2 Comment 18.c AM and PM peak hour trip generation rates are different between previous and current traffic analyses, Response The AM and PM peak hour trip generation rates have been changed to be consistent with those presented for NOPC #10 in tables dated 2/28/00 The revised tables dated 1/22/01 are attached The result is a greater differential between the peak hour of the approved and proposed uses than shown on tables dated 12118/00 for NOPC #11 In order to help in the review process we have included the Daily as well as AM peak hour and PM peak hour comparative trip generation tables.

PUBLIC WORKS - General Comment: None PUBLIC WORKS - Traffic 1 Comment: See attached memorandum dated January 16,2001 (ExhibIt A). UTILITIES 2.1 Comment: On the surface, theIr request to change the zomng on Lots 7 through 11, and Lots 23 through 31 (a total of 14 lots) from Office & Industnal to Mixed Use, seems sImple enough. Response: Comment Noted - Comment should be deleted 2.2 Comment: However, with the ongmal DR! for the total park desIgned for CommercIal, Industnal, Office, or a combmatIOn of Office and Industnal, and/or Office, IndustrIal and CommercIal, both the water and wastewater systems support these type of antiCIpated uses were deSIgned and constructed for those antiCIpated uses. Four (4) lIfe statIons were configured to handle the wastewater generatIon antiCIpated on the 550 acre park. Response: Comment Noted - Comment should be deleted. [2500 Quantum Lakes Drive, Suite 101 Boynton Beach, FL 33426 (561) 740-2447 . Fax: (561) 740-2429 e-mail: quantgrp@qgc.cc 23 Comment: Recently, the CIty allowed the converSIOn of three (3) lots (#59 through 61) from Office & Industnal to Mixed Use, whIch mcluded some 272 apartment umts, some 228 apartment umts awaIt mcorporatIon mto Lots 62 through 67 Now, With the antiCIpated addItion of approxImately 500 apartment umts on the 14 lots noted above, the existmg utilIty support faCIlIties could be taxed to theIr lImIts. Response: Comment Noted - Comment should be deleted. 2 4 Comment: A prOVisIon needs to be mcorporated mto each lot( s) approval process that the deSIgn engmeenng consultants shall demonstrate that suffiCIent utilIty system( s) capacIty IS available to support the proposed use, or they will proVIde the necessary upgrade(s) to allow for the proposed use. Failure to do so could result m msufficIent utilIty support to thIS park, affectmg other current (exIstmg) users. Response. This comment is unnecessary, we object to its' inclusion in the staff comments and request it be deleted The development is already conditioned to upgrade the lift station pumps and controls as development requires. The determination of the adequacy of the public infrastructure is a function of the design development and permitting of a specific project on any lot within Quantum Park, not just the lots that are the subject of this amendment. This application is for a land use change for particular lots within the development FIRE Comment: None POLICE Comment: None ENGINEERING DIVISION Comment: None BUILDING DIVISION 3 Comment: Add to the SIte plan draWing all eXIstmg easements that are shown on the survey Also, add all proposed easements. The locatIOn, type and SIze of the easements shall be shown and IdentIfied on the SIte plan Where appbcable, amend the plans so that structures do not encroach mto an easement. Response: This comment and the remaining building department comments appear to be directed to a different project. The subject of this NOPC is a master plan land use designation change on 14 lots. Submitted in support of the proposed change is a revised master plan, a site plan was not submitted A site plan is not proposed at this time and is not required to request or approve the proposed change.

Revisions to this new drawing will be noted with triangles as the submitted plan is revised throughout the approval process for amendment number 11 16 Comment: Master Plan shows a new note whIch provIdes for the ResIdential dwellmg urnt converSIOn to IndustrIal use. The second such note refers to a converSIOn of one ResIdential umt to 725 square feet of Industnal. The NOPC mdIcates thIS as Office use not Industnal. ProvIde JustificatIOn for these conversIon formulas WhICh were not Included m the last NOPC Response: The Master Plan has been revised to correct the equivalency formulas relative to the residential generation. Refer to the supplemental traffic statements and calculations provide by Pinder Troutman, inc., dated January 22; 2001 17 Comment: Approval of the Master Plan IS contmgent upon a findmg of no substantial deViatIon by the City This IS based on the followmg sectIons of the Flonda Statues a) Chapter 380 06 (19(b) 9 An mcrease m the number of dwellmg umts by five (5) percent or 50 urnts~ wlu.chever IS greater b) Chapter 38006 (19)(e) 5 c Not WIthstandmg any provlSlon of paragraph (b) to the contrary, a proposed change consIstmg of SImultaneous mcreases and decreases of at least two of the uses WIthm an authonzed multi-use development of regIOnal Impact WhIch was ongmally approved With more than three uses specIfied m 3800651 (3)(c), (d), (f) and (g) and resIdential use Response: Comment Noted 17 1 Comment: The apphcatIOn as presented IS presumed to be a substantial deVIatIon by the CIty ThIS presumptIon may be rebutted by clear and convmcmg eVIdence. The apphcant must provide additIOnal mformatIOn before a determmatIon of no substantIal deVIation IS made. The addItIonal mformatIon mcludes. a) Provide a reVIsed traffic analysIs based on Items dISCUSsed In comments #1 and # 18 b) Demonstrate how the proposed project IS consIstent With the local comprehensIve plan. c) ProvIde an updated projectIOn of water and sewer demands. Response: Reference the Pinder Troutman letter, dated January 22, 2001 and Winston Lees & Associates letter dated January 22, 2001 Updated water and wastewater demands will be provided upon submittal of a residential site plan for the area subject to the proposed change in DRlland use. This area may still be developed as office or industrial uses consistent with the current master plan. 18 Comment: The traffic analysIs for NOPC #1 dated 12/18/00 IS flawed. The folloWing .1llconsIstencteS were found. a) Office square footage shown m the traffic analysIs 725,850 IS not consIstent WIth what is shown as a note on the Master Plan, 888,850 Please clarIfy b} The total square footage In the traffic analysts equals 3,323,718 square feet. The total generated from the amounts shown m the notes IS 3,514,618 Please clanfy c) A dIfferent A.M. and P.M. Peak Tnp GeneratIon Rate IS "bemg used for the Office and convemence store category than was used for Amendment #10 Refer to Pmder Troutman letters dated 2/17/00, 2/28/00 and 12/18/00 Please clanfy Response Reference the Pinder Troutman letter dated January 22,2001 19 Comment: Under the condItion of Amendment #8 to the Quantum Park Development Or.der and Chapter 3, ArtIcle N of the Land Development Regulations, a traffic analysIs IS reqUired and was submItted for thIS Master Plan Approval. ThIS traffic analYSIS will be revIewed by the Palm Beach County Traffic DIVISion. In beu of an mdependent traffic consultant, the City'S Public Works Department staff will reVIew the traffic study The cost of the reVIew fee is based on hourly salanes plus 35% for fnnge benefits. Response The requirement for the traffic analysis and the independent review for the project were satisfied by the city commission approval of Amendment Number 10 The comments and recommendations presented by the Public Works Director simply do not apply The traffic generated by this project is within the threshold established as part of the original and subsequent approvals.. The thresholds have been established according to the submittal of acceptable tr~ffic analysis based upon acceptable standards and reviews by various agencies. The traffic generated by the development intensities proposed as presented are within the -thresholds of subsequent approvals, either as approved originally, approved by amendment 10 (the addition of 500 residential units) or as demonstrated by the traffic analysis submitted in evidence with the proposed amendment. The public works department comments and recommendations relative to traffic issues are not the responsibility of the applicant at this time. The .analysis recommendations were the responsibility of the previous developer and as stated above were addressed and the development was approved The development is now vested jar the development intensities subsequently approved. The continued monitoring of existing traffic and the LOS categorization and remedy of d~ficiencies beyond the existing conditions of the development order are not the applicants'responsibility The eight recommendations are addressed as follows 1 Palm Beach County currently is performing this duty 2. Palm Beach County currently is performing this duty 3 This recommendation is not the applicants responsibility 4 The traffic analysis as submitted is exactly the traffic generation anticipated at the build out of Quantum Park. The focus of the analysis is to compare the proposed development intensities with the previously approved development intensities. The analysis demonstrates the proposed intensities do not exceed the previously approved intensities. 5. This recommendation is not the applican1S' responsibility. 6 This recommendation is beyond the scope q( the applicants' approvals and respons ib il ities. 7 We believe this is clearly shown in the analysis submitted with the application of the proposed change. 8. As the submitted analysis demonstrates the traffic generated by the proposed intensities does not it exceed the previous approvals the determination of onsite or offsite improvements is not the responsibility of the applicant. 21 Comment: IndIcate the target market for the reSIdentIal umts.

These specific changes have been described in detail in Section 5 of the NOPC Application The purpose of this traffic analysis is to provide data and analyses of the traffic impacts associated with the proposed change such that a determination of substantial deviation can be made The most recent modification to the DRI was the approval of the Master Site Development Plan on March 7, 2000 Prior to that date, the Master Site Development Plan was approved on May 20, 1997 that established thresholds of development (maximum square feet for each land use) that could not be exceeded, as well as a maximum daily trip threshold that could not be exceeded As noted on the Master Site Development Plan approved on May 20, 1997 and March 7, 2000, the project is vested for 63,752 daily trips. This then becomes the benchmark from which to compare the trip generation of the proposed land uses. Attachment 1 A provides a daily trip generation analysis of the proposed Quantum Park development program It should be noted that the land used categories shown on this exhibit are more refined than the broad categories shown on the approved Master Site Development Plan Land uses shown on Attachment 1A reflect the developer's knowledge of specific uses that will be or are currently constructed within Quantum Park. The proposed land uses at Quantum Park are estimated to generate 63,751 daily trips, the maximum for which the project is vested Attachments 1 Band 1C provide a trip generation comparison of the AM peak hour and PM peak hour respectively The proposed land use plan is projected to generate fewer trips than are currently vested for the site Therefore, the proposed amendment does not represent a substantial deviation Di #PTCOO-204 12/111/00 tripgen copm ADMNOPC11 00-204 12 18-00 Page 1 of3 Attachment 1 A Quantum Park NOPC #11 Daily Trip Generation Comparison.
