REVIEW COMMENTS 7.A.2 PACKAGING CONCEPTS - DRIVEWAY SEPARATION ZONING CODE VARIANCE DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT Memorandum No. PZ 01-051 Staff Report Planning and Development Board and City Commission Date March 19,2001 File No ZNCV 01-002 (dnveways dIstance separatIOn) Location 4925 Park RIdge Road, Boynton Beach Agent: Winston Lee, ASLA, AICP, of Winston Lee & AssocIates Project: Packagmg Concepts Request Request for two (2) vanances from the CIty of Boynton Beach Land Development RegulatIOns, Chapter 2-Zonmg, SectIOn 7-Planned Industnal Development (Pill), H.3, to reduce the mmImum separatIOn between dnveways 1) from 150 feet as reqUIred by code to 107 feet to allow a forty three (43) foot reductIon, and 2) from 150 feet as reqUIred by code to 145 feet to allow a five (5) foot reductIOn. BACKGROUND Winston Lee, ASLA, AICP, of Winston Lee & AssocIates, agent for Packagmg Concepts IS requestmg to reduce the mmImum reqUIred dIstance between dnveways from 150 feet to 107 feet, and from 150 feet to 145 feet, both on Beta Dnve, along the east sIde of the 3 65-acre Packagmg Concepts property, on lots 47- B, 47-C, and 47-D, Quantum Industnal Park, Pill Packagmg Concepts was ongmally approved m September of 1995 as a 25,838 square-foot office/warehouse bUIldmg. The developer proposes to construct a one-story 28,000 square-foot office/warehouse addItIon to the eXIstmg faCIlIty for a total bUIldmg area of 53,838 square feet (see ExhibIt "A" -locatIOn map) Currently, the SIte contams access VIa one (1) eXIstmg dnveway connectIOn to Park RIdge Boulevard to the north, and one (1) connectIOn to Beta Dnve to the east, both consIstent WIth the Quantum Park Master Plan. The proposed SIte plan for the bUIldmg addItIon shows two (2) addItIonal connectIOns to Beta Dnve onto the cul-de-sac, both twenty-seven (27) foot wIde (see ExhibIt "B" - SIte plan) The Pill zomng dIstnct lImIts a project to a maXImum of two (2) dnveways per developable parcel. The two (2) proposed dnveways are consIstent WIth thIS regulatIOn, however, due to SIte lImItatIOns caused mamly to the presence of the adjacent cul-de-sac, the proposed locatIOn will place them closer than the mmImum reqUIred separatIOn dIstance of 150 feet. The SIte IS proposed to be modIfied WIth the common goal of separatmg vehicular traffic from truck traffic, and separatmg vIsitor traffic from operatIOnal traffic However, thIS SItuatIon, typIcal of mdustnal projects, will tend to generate the need for the maXImum the number of dnveways and wIder then normal dnveways. In part due to the fact that the southern end of the project IS accessed by a cul-de-sac, the vanance has been warranted. The followmg IS a descnptIon of the zonmg dIstncts and land uses of the propertIes that surround Packagmg Concepts Page 2 Packagmg Concepts FIle No ZNCV 01-002 North - Park RIdge Boulevard and farther north IS the PublIx DIstributIOn Center South Boynton Canal C-16 nght-of-way East - Beta Dnve and farther east IS undeveloped lot 48 m Quantum Park, zoned Pill \Vest Flowers DIstributIOn and Safety Kleen busmesses m Quantum Park, zoned Pill The code states that zonmg code vanances cannot be approved unless the board finds the followmg' a. That specIal condItIOns and CIrcumstances eXIst whIch are peculIar to the land, structure, or bUIldmg mvolved and WhICh are not applIcable to other lands, structures or bUIldmgs m the same zomng dIstnct. b That the specIal condItIons and CIrcumstances do not result from the actIOns of the applIcant. c. That grantmg the vanance requested WIll not confer on the applIcant any specIal pnvIlege that IS demed by thIS ordmance to other lands, bUIldmgs, or structures m the same zonmg dIstnct. d. That lIteral mterpretatIon of the provIsIOns of thIS ordmance would depnve the applIcant of nghts commonly enjoyed by other propertIes m the same zonmg dIstnct under the terms of the ordmance and would work unnecessary and undue hardshIp on the applIcant. e That the vanance granted IS the mmImum vanance that WIll make possible the reasonable use of the land, bUIldmg, or structure f That the grant of the vanance WIll be m harmony wIth the general mtent and purpose of thIS chapter [ordmance] and that such vanance wIll not be mJunous to the area mvolved or otherwIse detnmental to the publIc welfare. ANALYSIS In revIewmg vanance requests for mmImum dnveway separatIOn, staff revIewed several cntena to determme JustIficatIon for allowmg a vanance at thIS SIte ThIS analysIs focused on the tradItIOnal cntena for hardshIp, specifically on Items "e" and "f' above whIch reqUIre that the request WIll make possible the reasonable use of the land and the structure, and at the same tIme grantmg the vanance WIll be m harmony with the mtent of the code and not detnmental nor mJunous to the area and publIc welfare. Also, thIS analysIs focused on the followmg Issues Page 3 Packagmg Concepts FIle No ZNCV 01-002 1) Lot configuratIOn relatIve to the adjacent road and cul-de-sac, 2) Traffic flow and safety With respect to lot dImensIOns and configuratIOn, the subject parcel contams approxImately 200 feet of frontage along Beta Dnve, whIch IS suffiCIent to enable the locatIOn of one dnveway Accordmg to the applIcant's response to the above cntena contamed m ExhibIt "C", the need for a second dnveway on the same road at such a short dIstance IS JustIfied by the need to prOVIde vISItors, employees and others WIth safe access to the parkmg area separate from truck traffic The applIcant feels that by denymg thIS request the maneuverabIlIty of publIc fire and samtatIOn vehIcles, and the commerCIal trucks as well, wIll generate an unnecessary and undue hardshIp, therefore, jeOpardIzmg both safety and traffic flow It should be noted that the SIte plan depIcts the dumpster locatIOn at the southeast corner of the SIte. It IS the opmIOn of staff that by denymg thIS request the applIcant would be forced to redeSIgn the project m order to meet the separatIOn reqUIrements, WhICh would likely reqUIre some traffic to be combmed, and/or the reductIOn of the project SIze m order to mternahze traffic flow RECOMMENDATION Based on the above analysIs, staff finds that thIS vanance request IS JustIfied for the followmg reasons a. SpecIal condItIOns and CIrcumstances eXIst whIch are peculIar to the subject property (the eXIstence of the cul-de-sac whIch reduces property frontage), b The vanance represents the mImmum vanance needed to utIhze the SIte m the most reasonable way (based on the current proposed SIte layout and bUIldmg sIze/configuratIOn), and c That grantmg the vanance would be m harmony WIth the general mtent of the regulatIOn to promote safe and logIcal traffic CIrculatIOn wIthm the Planned Industnal Park (onsIte traffic flow WIll be optImal, and bemg located at the end of a cul-de-sac, traffic hazards WIll not be generated gIven traffic speeds and volume m thIS area) Therefore, staff recommends that thIS request by Packagmg Concepts for a vanance from the CIty of Boynton Beach Land Development RegulatIOns, Chapter 2 - Zonmg, SectIOn 7 - Planned Umt Development, H.3, to reduce the mmImum dnveway separatIOn dIstance m a Pill, Planned Industnal DIstnct, from 150 feet to 107 feet, and from 150 feet to 145 feet, be granted.

That special conditions and circumstances exist which are peculiar to the land, structure or building Involved and which are not applicable to other lands, structures or bUildings In the same zoning district. Response The proposed access driveway is located between an existing facility driveway and the reduced frontage of a cul-de-sac on the newly purchased lot. An existing easement for overhead powerlines further encumbers the area where one of the proposed driveways could be shIfted to maximize the driveway spacing The phYSical amount of ROW frontage available IS not mathematically sufficIent to accommodate the PIO spacing requirement. B That the special conditions and circumstances do not result from the actions of the applicant Response The conditions exist due to the lot configuration at the cul-de-sac and the phYSical conditIon afthe existing facility The cul-de-sac lot was purchased after the eXisting faCility was constructed C That granting the variance requested will not confer on the applicant any special privilege that is denied by this Ordinance to other lands, buildings or structures in the same zoning district Response The conditions of thiS request are unique to thiS eXisting facilIty and the configuration of the lot being added o That literal interpretation of the provisions of this chapter would deprive the applicant of rights commonly enjoyed by other properties in the same zoning district under the terms of the Ordinance and would work unnecessary and undue hardship on the applicant, Res~o~se Tn' ~ II'.~~~I ;n.~~pr~.~~'o~ v'v~ul"J ~~s' 'I'. on unnec~s~ar;'y crQ~t'lng a short 1-'11 10 lOIQllllOI OleH111 U UIOUllI I 0;:' II ~Q .1, dead-end parking lot whose sole access could be restricted by truck traffic Packaging Concepts Variance Request January 9, 2001 Page 2 E That the variance granted is the minimum variance that will make possible the reasonable use of the land, buildIng or structure, Response The variance request is the minimum necessary to allow reasonable use of the site and allow for a through traffic visitor parking area. F That the granting of the variance will be in harmony with the general intent and purpose of this chapter and that such variance will not be injurious to the area involved or otherwise detrimental to the public welfare Response The granting of the variance allows for a harmonious site by providing through traffic to the visitors parking area and allowing for separation of various traffic types (loading, visitors, employees) Furthermore, this request for driveway separation is at the end of a cul-de-sac off the end of Park Ridge Blvd which dead ends at the end of Quantum Park.

BACKGROUND Winston Lee, ASLA, AICP, of Winston Lee & AssocIates, agent for Packagmg Concepts IS requestmg to reduce the mImmum reqUIred dIstance between dnveways from 150 feet to 107 feet, and from 150 feet to 145 feet, both on Beta Dnve, along the east sIde of the 3 65-acre Packagmg Concepts property, on lots 47- B, 47-C, and 47-D, Quantum Industnal Park, Pill Packagmg Concepts was ongmally approved m September of 1995 as a 25,838 square-foot office/warehouse bUIldmg. The developer proposes to construct a one-story 28,000 square-foot office/warehouse addItIOn to the eXIstmg facIlIty for a total bUIldmg area of53,838 square feet (see ExhibIt "A" -locatIOn map) Currently, the SIte contams access VIa one (1) eXIstmg dnveway connectIOn to Park RIdge Boulevard to the north, and one (1) connectIOn to Beta Dnve to the east, both consIstent WIth the Quantum Park Master Plan. The proposed SIte plan for the bUIldmg addItIOn shows two (2) addItIonal connectIons to Beta Dnve onto the cul-de-sac, both twenty-seven (27) foot wIde (see ExhibIt "B" - SIte plan) The Pill zonmg dIstnct lImIts a project to a maxImum of two (2) dnveways per developable parcel. The two (2) proposed dnveways are consIstent WIth thIS regulatIOn, however, due to SIte lImItatIOns caused mamly to the presence of the adjacent cul-de-sac, the proposed locatIOn WIll place them closer than the mmImum reqUIred separatIon dIstance of 150 feet. The SIte IS proposed to be modIfied wIth the common goal of separatmg vehIcular traffic from truck traffic, and separatmg VIsItor traffic from operatIonal traffic However, thIS SItuatIon, typIcal of mdustnal proJects, WIll tend to generate the need for the maXImum the number of dnveways and WIder then normal dnveways. In part due to the fact that the southern end of the project IS accessed by a cul-de-sac, the vanance has been warranted. The followmg IS a descnptIOn of the zomng dIstncts and land uses of the propertIes that surround Packagmg Concepts Page 2 Packagmg Concepts FIle No ZNCV 01-002 North - Park RIdge Boulevard and farther north IS the PublIx DIstributIOn Center South - Boynton Canal C-16 nght-of-way East - Beta Dnve and farther east IS undeveloped lot 48 m Quantum Park, zoned Pill West - Flowers DIstributIOn and Safety Kleen busmesses m Quantum Park, zoned Pill The code states that zomng code vanances cannot be approved unless the board finds the followmg: a.

That grantmg the vanance requested wIll not confer on the applIcant any specIal pnvIlege that IS demed by thIS ordmance to other lands, buildmgs, or structures m the same zomng dIStnCt. d. That lIteral mterpretatIOn of the prOVIsIOns of thIS ordmance would depnve the applIcant of nghts commonly enjoyed by other propertIes m the same zonmg dIStnCt under the terms of the ordmance and would work unnecessary and undue hardshIp on the applIcant. e. That the vanance granted IS the mmImum vanance that wIll make possible the reasonable use of the land, bUIldmg, or structure. f That the grant of the vanance wIll be m harmony wIth the general mtent and purpose of thIS chapter [ordmance] and that such vanance wIll not be mJunous to the area mvolved or otherwIse detnmental to the publIc welfare. ANALYSIS In revIewmg vanance requests for mmImum dnveway separatIOn, staff revIewed several cntena to determme JustificatIOn for allowmg a vanance at thIS SIte. ThIS analysIs focused on the tradItional cntena for hardshIp, specIfically on Items "e" and "f' above whIch reqUIre that the request WIll make possible the reasonable use of the land and the structure, and at the same time grantmg the vanance wIll be m harmony WIth the mtent of the code and not detnmental nor mJunous to the area and publIc welfare. Also, thIS analysIs focused on the followmg Issues. Page 3 Packagmg Concepts FIle No ZNCV 01-002 1) Lot configuratIOn relatIve to the adjacent road and cul-de-sac, 2) Traffic flow and safety With respect to lot dImensIOns and configuratIOn, the subject parcel contams approxImately 200 feet of frontage along Beta Dnve, WhICh IS sufficIent to enable the locatIOn of one dnveway Accordmg to the apphcant's response to the above cntena contamed m ExhibIt "C", the need for a second dnveway on the same road at such a short dIstance IS JuStified by the need to provIde VIsItors, employees and others wIth safe access to the parkmg area separate from truck traffic The apphcant feels that by denymg thIS request the maneuverabIlIty of publIc fire and sanItatIOn vehIcles, and the commercIal trucks as well, will generate an unnecessary and undue hardshIp, therefore, JeopardIzmg both safety and traffic flow It should be noted that the SIte plan depIcts the dumpster locatIOn at the southeast comer of the SIte. It IS the opmIOn of staff that by denymg thIS request the applIcant would be forced to redeSIgn the proJ ect m order to meet the separatIOn reqUIrements, whIch would likely reqUIre some traffic to be combmed, and/or the reductIOn of the project SIze m order to mternalIze traffic flow RECOMMENDATION Based on the above analYSIS, staff finds that thIS vanance request IS Justified for the followmg reasons. a. SpeCIal condItions and CIrcumstances eXIst WhIch are peculIar to the subject property (the eXIstence of the cul-de-sac WhICh reduces property frontage), b The vanance represents the mmImum vanance needed to utIlIze the SIte m the most reasonable way (based on the current proposed SIte layout and bUIldmg sIze/configuration), and c. That grantmg the vanance would be m harmony WIth the general mtent of the regulation to promote safe and logIcal traffic CIrculatIOn wIthm the Planned Industnal Park (onsIte traffic flow WIll be optImal, and bemg located at the end of a cul-de-sac, traffic hazards WIll not be generated gIven traffic speeds and volume m thIS area) Therefore, staff recommends that thIS request by Packagmg Concepts for a vanance from the CIty of Boynton Beach Land Development RegulatIOns, Chapter 2 - Zonmg, SectIOn 7 - Planned Umt Development, H.3, to reduce the mmImum dnveway separatIon dIstance m a PID, Planned Industnal DIstnct, from 150 feet to 107 feet, and from 150 feet to 145 feet, be granted.

That special conditions and circumstances exist which are peculiar to the land, structure or building involved and which are not applicable to other lands, structures or buildings in the same zOning district. Response The proposed access driveway is located between an existing facility driveway and the reduced frontage of a cul-de-sac on the newly purchased lot. An existing easement for overhead powerlines further encumbers the area where one of the proposed driveways could be shifted to maximize the driveway spacing The physical amount of ROW frontage available IS not mathematically sufficient to accommodate the PIO spacing requirement. B That the special conditions and circumstances do not result from the actions of the applicant, Response The conditions exist due to the lot configuration at the cul-de-sac and the physical condition of the existing facility The cul-de-sac lot was purchased after the existing facility was constructed C That granting the variance requested wiil not confer on the applicant any special privilege that is denied by this Ordinance to other lands, buildings or structures in the same zoning district, Response The conditIons of thIS request are unique to this eXisting facility and the configuration of the lot being added o That literal interpretation of the provisions of this chapter would deprive the applicant of rights commonly enjoyed by other properties in the same zoning district under the terms of the Ordinance and 'Nould work unnecessary and undue hardship on the applicant; Response The literal interpretation would result in unnecessarily creating a short, dead-end parking lot whose sole access could be restricted by truck traffic Packaging Concepts Variance Request January 9, 2001 Page 2 E. That the variance granted is the minimum variance that will make possible the reasonable use of the land, building or structure, Response The variance request is the minimum necessary to allow reasonable use of the site and allow for a through traffic visitor parking area. F That the granting of the variance will be in harmony with the general intent and purpose of this chapter and that such variance will not be injurious to the area involved or otherwise detnmental to the public welfare Response The granting of the variance allows for a harmonious site by providing through traffic to the visitors parking area and allowing for separation of various traffic types (loading, visitors, employees) Furthermore, this request for driveway separation is at the end of a cul-de-sac off the end of Park Ridge Blvd which dead ends at the end of Quantum Park.
