townhouse units on 3 996 acres The types of townhouses on this lot will be the same as
proposed on Quantum Lots 83 through 88 (a k.a. Quantum Park & Village North) The
subject Quantum Park lot currently has a Master Plan land use option of Office / Industrial
(01) Residential units are not permitted under the current use category Therefore, the
approval of this Master Plan is contingent upon approval of the request for Notice of
Proposed Change NOPC #13, to change the use option on the Master Plan from (01) to
Mixed Use (MU) (see Exhibit "0" - Conditions of Approval)
A Master Site Plan was submitted in accordance with Chapter 2, Section 7, P and
constitutes this review (see Exhibit "B") The Master Site Plan is conceptual, establishing
the general development parameters for the project. According to the overall site plan, no
phase lines are indicated Should NOPC #13 and this Master Plan be approved, a more
detailed Technical Site Plan will be required at a later time The Technical Site Plans will
only be reviewed by the TRC and receive a Development Order from the Development
Director Only at that time will the applicant will be able to apply for building permits
Neither the Planning & Development Board nor the City Commission will review or approve
the Technical Site Plans
Concurrency.
a. Traffic - A revised traffic statement for this project was submitted and sent to the Palm Beach
County Traffic Division for approval The County has not issued an approval letter for
the project. The project must meet the Palm Beach County Traffic Performance
Standards prior to receiving a building permit (see Exhibit "0" - Conditions of
Approval)
b. Drainage - Conceptual drainage information was provided for the City's review According to
the drainage certification, the subject property has legal positive outfall to the LWDD
E-4 Canal The City of Boynton Beach Engineering Division is recommending that
the review of specific drainage solutions be deferred until time of Technical Site Plan
submittal
Driveways. This development will have one (1) point of vehicular ingress / egress to High Ridge Road
It will have two (2) lanes of ingress and one (1) lane of egress and be divided by a
landscaped median The landscape median will be approximately 16 feet in width The
ingress lanes will be a total of 22 feet in width (11 feet for each lane) and the egress lane
will be 12 feet in width This would be a gated access drive All entrances would have
adequate pavement markings and appropriate signage for safety purposes
Parking Facility. The required parking for the residential portion of the project (39 townhouse units) is based
upon the formula of two (2) spaces per each townhouse for a total 78 parking spaces. The
site plan (sheet "SP-1) shows that each townhouse unit will have a one-car garage The
plan also shows that 29 townhouse units will have driveways that will accommodate one (1)
parked vehicle and 1 0 driveways that will accommodate two (2) parked vehicles (see Exhibit
"0" - Conditions of Approval) The space provided in front of the enclosed garages
however, will be three (3) feet narrower than the required 12 feet of width required for these
types of spaces This waiver was approved with the site plan for the Villas at Quantum Lake
/ Quantum Park and Village South and proposed in the Master Site Plan for Quantum Park
and Village North Staff supports this waiver request in connection with the justification
accepted for similar projects, provided that the area immediately adjacent to this area is
clear of obstruction and flush with the driveway to allow for free and safe movement around
Page 3

Memorandum No PZ 02-192
vehicles In all, the development will have a total of 91 parking spaces, or an excess of 13
spaces The dimensions of the standard 90-degree guest parking spaces will be nine (9)
feet in width by 18 feet in length, except for the handicap spaces, which will be 12 feet in
width (with 5 feet of striping) by 18 feet in length
Landscaping
The landscaping proposed for the site is conceptual Detailed landscape plans will be
required with the submittal of a Technical Site Plan for each phase (see Exhibit "0" -
Conditions of Approval) The conceptual landscape plan does include a list of plant material
that may be used on site
According to the landscape plan, the subject lot will have 13 different categories of
landscape material The landscape material proposed on the subject lot will be the same
material used on the Quantum Park and Village North (SBMP 02-002) project, directly to the
west of High Ridge Road The 13 categories are as follows Mahogany tree, Royal palm,
East Lake Palatka Holly, Live Oak, Silver Buttonwood, Royal Poinciana, Pigeon Plum tree,
Japanese Fern tree, Saba I Palm tree, Alexander Palm (triple and double), Carpentaria Palm
(double), and Coconut Palms.
The applicant is requesting two (2) waivers related to the north landscape buffer The
requests for buffer waivers are summarized in the Recommendation paragraph Staff is
recommending denial of the waivers. According to Chapter 7.5, Article II, Section 4 P, at
least 50% of the landscape material must be native species The landscape plan tabular
data must indicate the number of native plants (see Exhibit "0" - Conditions of Approval)
Building and Site: The City Commission adopted Ordinance No 00-52 amending the Land Development
Regulations Chapter 2, Section 7, Planned Industrial Developments to allow mixed use
pods in a PID The ordinance outlines special submission requirements, procedures for
review, and for waivers from standard development regulations This application is
considered a "Master Site Plan" as defined by the ordinance A total of four (4) waivers are
requested in conjunction with this submittal The list of proposed waivers is located on site
plan sheet "SP-1" Justification for all waivers was submitted as required (see Exhibit "C")
All other building and site regulations will be met when staff comments are incorporated into
the permit drawings
Community Design The project is proposing 39 units to be dispersed throughout five (5) different buildings. As
proposed, each building will have a mixture of the number of units, although the standard
will consist of two (2) different types of models According to the residential site plan (sheet
"SP-1"), there are two models (Model "A" and Model "B") and their reverse The net density
will be 9 76 units per acre The code requires that there be a 25-foot separation between
the buildings The applicant is requesting a waiver to reduce the building separation from
25 feet to 20 feet. However, at this time, no buildings are proposed closer than 25 feet from
each other The configuration and distance of between each building may be subject to
change during Technical Site Plan review process, requiring the buildings to be closer than
25 feet from each other Staff would support this waiver request should it be necessary
because the intent of the 25-foot building separation requirement was for industrial buildings
in the PID zoning district.
The two (2) story townhouses will be nearly 28 feet in height. According to the residential
elevation (sheet "A-3"), the exterior of the buildings will have a stucco finish and "Spanish-
Tile" roofing The colors will range from Sherman Williams' white, tan, and gold
(Restoration Ivy SW #6413, Roycroft Suede SW #2842, Rookwood Antique Gold SW
#2814, and Rockwood Terra Cotta SW #2803) To maximize design compatibility, the

Memorandum No PZ 02 192
town homes of this project should also be enhanced and modified to be consistent with
Building "E" of the Quantum Park and Village North project (see Exhibit "0" - Conditions of
Approval) Sidewalks are provided throughout the development as well as lush landscaping
around the buildings, the recreation facilities (located off-site) and common areas Staff
understands that the pool and recreation area on Quantum Park Lot 86 is intended to serve
the residents of this community
Signage.
No additional project signage is proposed with this submittal Signage for this project will be
submitted separately for approval (see Exhibit "0" - Conditions of Approval)
RECOMMENDATION.
Quantum Park Lot 89B has the DRI Master Plan use classification of Office / Industrial Staff does not support
converting the land use from (01) to Mixed Use (MU) Staff's justification for denial of this request is explained in
more detail in the NOPC #13 staff report. Staff also recommends that this site plan request be denied due to
remaining outstanding issues itemized in Exhibit "0" - Conditions of Approval
Should the NOPC #13 be approved, however, the applicant is requesting four (4) waivers from the Land
Development Code with this Master Site Plan approval Staff would support approval of all waivers, except for the
waivers related to the buffer width The buffer waivers that staff objects are listed below'
. Land Development Regulations Chapter 2, Section 7 H 16 - Requesting Waiver of 10 feet to allow a
reduction in the rear yard setback from 30 feet to 20 feet; and
. Land Development Regulations Chapter 2, Section 7 H 17 - Requesting Waiver of 20 feet to allow a
reduction in the peripheral buffer from 25 feet to 5 feet along the northern property line
Staff recommends denial of this waiver request due to the abutting incompatible land uses. As proposed,
the northern perimeter buffer would be reduced in the areas where the proposed residential townhouses
would directly abut industrially zoned property The Boynton Beach Distribution Center directly abuts the
subject property to the north Ed Carey Design, Inc , a manufacturing business, is directly to the west. The
two aforementioned industrial buildings would be too close to the proposed townhouses should the
townhouses encroach into the required buffers Furthermore, the required rear setback for the industrially
zoned property (M-1) is only 20 feet. The Land Development Regulations do not address situations where
industrial zoned properties abut other industrially zoned properties that contain residential land uses such
as in this case The town homes would be 20 feet from the north property line and the extent of their rear
yard would only be 5 feet from the north property line If Quantum Park Lot 89B is developed for residential
use, it must meet the buffer requirements of the Quantum Park Peripheral Landscape Buffer Plan and the
PID buffer requirements in the Land Development Regulations No waivers for buffer width should be
allowed
If the Master Site Plan is approved, the Technical Review Committee (TRC) recommends that the deficiencies
identified in Exhibit "0" be corrected on the set of plans submitted for Technical Site Plan approval and building
permit.

RE. REQUEST FOR WAIVERS - QUANTUM VILLAGE AT QUANTUM
PARK (RESIDENTIAL PORTIONS OF LOTS MU 83-88, ALL OF LOT 89B)
Dear Mr Rumpf:
Pursuant to the CIty of Boynton Beach Code of Ordmances - Part ill - Land Development
RegulatiOns - Chapter 2- Zonmg, Section 7- Planned Industnal Development Distnct, and
Chapter 2, Section 11 - Supplemental RegulatiOns, W3J.vers are hereby requested for
Quantum. Village at Quantum Park. The W3J.vers will pertaIn to lots MU 83 through MU 88,
located north of Gateway Boulevard, west of High RIdge Road, and Office/Industnal Parcel
89B, located north of Gateway Boulevard, east of High RIdge Road. A Notice of Proposed
Change and Master Plan Amendment have been filed simultaneously WIth the City to convert
Parcel 89B from office to mixed use
BACKGROUNDIHISTORICAL PETITION INFORMATION
Quantum Park IS a Development of RegiOnal Impact approved m 1984 The Development
Order granted for the park has been amended smce Its ongmal adoption. The amendment that
allows residential land uses wIthm the Park IS Amendment No 10 that '"snnultaneously
mcreased the commercial mtensltIes and decreased the office and mduStnal mtensltles. The
simultaneous mcreasmg and decreasmg of the land use mtensitles resulted m no additional
regional nnpact most notably by not mcreasmg the total traffic generated" (Quantum Park
Annual Status Report - March 2002)
Parcels MU 83 through MU 88 have Master Plan approval that will allow development of the
proposed commercial and residential land uses. The commercial land uses will face Gateway
Boulevard and the balance of the property will be developed as townhomes. The actIon
reqUIred by City CouncIl to accomplIsh thiS request IS grantmg of the waivers outhned later m
thIs letter
A master plan amendment and Notice of Proposed Change have been submItted for Parcel
89B that need to be approved pnor to the grantmg of W3J.vers to allow the townhomes
proposed for the parcel.

Part III - Ch. 2, Section 7 - H. Design Criteria. 15. Distance between buildings Waiver of 5 feet to
allow a reductIon 10 the mInImUm dIstance from 25 feet to 20 feet. TIns Waiver apphes only to Parcel MU

JustIficatIon. TIns IS a resIdentIal pod that would typICally be subject to the regulatIons contaIned 10 the
R-3 MultIfamily Zonmg DIstrIct, winch reqUIres only a twenty-foot m10unum building separatIon. The
twenty five foot build10g separatIon reqUIred 10 the ProD apphes to 10dustrIal or commerctal buildIngs
that are allowed by Code a greater Floor Area RatIo and build10g heIght that what IS contemplated WIth
tlus two story town home development. It IS also Important to note that the CIty'S code contemplated the
separatIon would apply to build10gs be10g on the "same lot or parcel of land" whereas the town homes
will be fee SImple ownershIp The town house deSIgn presented based upon the twenty-foot separatIon IS
typICal for a reSIdentIal project, and 10 some junsdictIons, less build10g separatIon IS actually reqUIred.
Part 111- Ch. 2, Section 7 H. Design Criteria: 16. District setbacks:
Waiver of 10 feet to allow a reductIon 10 the rear yard setback from 30 feet to 20 feet. TIns Waiver applIes
only to Parcel 89B
JustIficatIon. TIns WaIver will apply to fourteen town homes located along the north property hne of
Parcel 89B The reductIon 10 WIdth IS located on the rear property hne In a remote area of the overall
proJect. ThIs reductIon IS therefore the least dIsruptIve to the deSIgn of the overall proJect, wluch proVIdes
for greater open space and build10g separatIon 10 other areas of the parcel. The adjacent land uses already
eXIst and screenmg of the town homes from those adjacent uses has been addressed 10 the landscape plan

JustIficatIon. Lots MU 83, 87 and 88 are adjacent to an area that carnes a non-confonmng reSIdentIal
zon1Og dtstrIct although the underlymg ComprehenSIve Plan land use desIgnatIOn IS IndustrIal The
purpose of the 40-foot buffer was to slneld the resIdentIal land uses located on the west property lIne of
the Park from future reSIdentIal development. The antICIpated development pattern for the Park was non-
residentIal, however, changes made to the DR! Master Plan now allow TeSldentIalland uses WItInn the
park reduc10g the potentIal for land use COnflIcts along the penmeter of the park that the forty foot buffer
reqUIrement was supposed to address. Although the future land use desIgnatIon of the parcel adjacent to
MU 83, 87 and 88 IS IndustrIal, It IS questIonable If the property will actually develop as such based upon
the amount of land area that remams WIth10 Quantum Park that IS more readily available.
The north property l10e of Parcel 89B would normally requrre a 25 foot buffer The reductIOn of the
buffer Width reduces the potentIal for other Waivers WltInn the parcel, such as building setbacks or parcel
setbacks. The uses adjacent to the park 10 tlus area have already been estabhshed and the town homes can
be adequately screened as depIcted on the landscape plan.

WaIver of 3 feet to allow a reductIOn m the rmnimum 12-foot WIdth requrred for the first parkIng space
(applIes to MU 83 through MU 88 and Parcel 89B)
JustIficatIon. nus regulatIon requIfes the first requIred parkIng spaces that are not WIthIn a garage to be a
rmmmum of twelve feet m WIdth. It IS questIOnable IT thts prOVISIon should apply The regulatIon states
that "for all requrred resIdentIal distnct parlang spaces not WIthm an enclosed garage, the first parlang
space shall be a rmmmum of twelve feet" All of the town home umts have a smgle car garage. Therefore,
the parkIng space outsIde of the garage IS technIcally the second space. NotWIthstandmg thts vanatIon, a
WaIver IS requested that reduces the "first space" to 9 feet m WIdth for umts that have a smgle car
dnveway in front of the garage. The three-foot reduction allows for more open space and landscaping m
the front yard, enhanclOg the overall appearance of the commumty The smgle car dnveway provIdes
sufficIent maneuvenng area because the length of the space IS twenty feet, wluch IS two feet longer than
requrred by code Tlus allows the velucle to be SItuated fully WIthIn the dnveway, and prevents any
overhang of the velucle mto the SIdewalk. SlOce these are pnvate dnveways, there IS not turnover of
velucles usmg the space. It should also be noted that a portIon of the umts have been deSIgned WIth a 19
foot WIde dnve aisle and therefore the WaIver will not pertaIn to all of the spaces.
If you have any questIons regarding thIS request for WaIvers, please call me.

Hi Laurinda,
While typing up the staff report for the Quantum North project, I noticed the backup distance for the guest parking in
the residential portion of the project is only 22 feet. Is this okay with you? They didn't request a backup distance
waiver for the residential portion only the commercial portion where the backup distance will be 25 feet instead of the
27 feet as required by code Whatcha think?

Lusia,
The residential portion of the Quantum Park and Village North project has 90 degree parking stalls for the
recreation area. The backup distance for these spaces will be provided by the street way The streets are 22 feet
wide. What do we think about this? They've only requested a waiver for the commercial backup area but not the
residential. We had this as a first review comment.

PUBLIC WORKS - General
Comments.
1 City Ordinance (CODE, Chapter 10) requires that arrangements be made with the
Public Works Department for waste disposal and site access associated with this site
plan.
Response: Solid waste collection will occur at curbside. Each residential unit has a
garage with sufficient depth to allow a trash can and recycling bin to be stored in
front of a vehicle. On the regularly scheduled trash collection day, this material will
be brought to the curb for collection from each individual unit. Therefore, no
central collection point is required. Sufficient maneuvering room exists for the
City's garbage coUection vehicle to access the neighborhood. Note No.6 on the site
plan states that solid waste collection will be by curbside pick up. Based on this
information, the applicant requests deletion of the comment.
2. Add a general note on the site and civil plans that all signing, striping, and
pavement markings shall conform to City Standard Drawing B-9800l.Please delete
this comment. The reauested note hils been added to the Site Pion Sheet SP-l.
PUBLIC WORKS - Traffic
Comments.
3 Prior to issuance of any building permits the Developer shall evaluate the impact of
traffic (turning movements) on High Ridge Road, particularly at the entrance to the
Tri-Rail Station (unmanned road) at Gateway Boulevard and at the proposed
entrances into the residential portions of the project (east and west from High Ridge
Road), based upon full build-out of the residential and commercial properties for
traffic signals. If signals are found to be warranted, the Developer shall post a Letter
of Credit in the amount of 110% of the estimated cost of signal installation against
future construction of the signal. If signals are not warranted the Developer shall post
a Letter of Credit in the amount of 50% of the estimated cost of signal installation
against future construction of the signal based upon future development and full-
build-out of the properties along the west side of High Ridge Road north and south of
this proposed project. Posting of the Letters of Credit shall be required prior to
issuance of any building permits. The Letter of Credit shall expire three (3) years
from its date of issue if the other off-site improvements/developments do not proceed
as anticipated.
Response: Signals were determined not to be warranted. Please refer to the
attached traffic report. This comment. therefore, no lonKer applies.
4 As is being done with the Quantum Park and Villages South, the City will help
facilitate a "Recapture" agreement. The City will instigate new traffic studies as
development continues on the north side of Gateway Blvd. and work to have the
developers reimbursed based on the percent benefit each acquires from signalization.
Response: SigTUlls were determined not to be warranted. Please refer to the attachet
report. This comment, therefore, no longer applies.

5 If a signal is not found to be required at this time, re-evaluate stopping sight
distances for the southbound lanes of High Ridge Road approaching the north
commercial entrance. It will be necessary to eliminate landscaping, concrete walls
and provide additional signage to provide adequate advance notice for traffic
approaching this driveway
Response: This comment actuaUy applies to Quantum Village West but is also
evaluated and included in the attached Traffic Report. Please delete this comment
from the review of Parcel 89B.
6. A permit to Construct within the Public Right-of-Way, issued by the Engineering
Division of Public Works, will be required for work on Gateway Boulevard. Permits
may also be required from Palm Beach County and the Quantum Park POA for work
on the High Ridge Road and Gateway Boulevard.
Response: This comment is acknowledged without objection for inclusion of the
comment as a condition of approval
7 Relocate the "transition" (three to two-lane northbound) on High Ridge Road
(adjacent to Lot 89B) north, so that the three-lane section extends to the north
property line of Lot 89B This is to prevent turning movement and stacking conflicts
for traffic entering the east and west residential developments. Show proposed off-site
roadway improvements (signing, striping, curb. curb & gutter pavement. etc.) for
High Ridge Road and Gateway Boulevard,
Response: This comment actuaUy pertains to Parcel 89B. The minor northbound
through traffic volume currently using High Ridge Road can be adequately
accommodated with one (1) through lane. Whether or not a right turn lane is
required into Parcel 89B is addressed in the response to the City's comments for
that parcel
8. Extend the medians on High Ridge Road and. as necessary. on Gateway
Boulevard. in accordance with FOOT specifications to guide traffic into the proposed
ingress lanes.
Response: No extension of the median on High Ridge Road is required to guide
traffic into the ingress lane. There is an existing left turn lane on High Ridge Road
for access into the residential portion of Parcels MU83-88. The available storage
provided for the exclusive northbound left turn lane into the project entrance. It is
not necessary to extend the median on High Ridge Road to guide traffic into the
ingress lane.
UTILITIES
Comments.
9 Show all utility easements on the site and landscape drawings so that we may
determine which trees may interfere with utilities (either existing or proposed). In
general. palm trees will be the only tree species allowed within utility easements.
Canopy trees will be planted outside of the easement so that roots and branches will
not impact those utilities within the easement in the foreseeable future. The LDR
Chapter 7.5. Article I. Section 18.1 gives public utilities the authority to remove any
trees that interfere with utility services. either in utility easements or public rights-of-
way
Response: Please delete this comment; it is inappropriate at this time. The Master
Site Plan application is not required to provide proposed utility easement or
proposed utility locations and the landscape plans are only conceptual. Conceptual
engineering drawings showing existing and proposed utility easements for
drainage, water and wastewater systems are required for the subsequent Technical
Site Plan Aoolication(s).

PLANNING AND ZONING
Comments.
55 Staff recommends that the commercial and residential design be consistent with
"new urbanism" principles. Since the residential and commercial uses are not really
"mixed" but rather are proposed on two separate, isolated, typical suburban districts,
there are subtle design elements that can be incorporated into the overall plan to
achieve neo-traditional developmenL The intent is to achieve a less dependence on
the automobile, better connectivity between the Tri-RaiVcommerciaVresidential uses,
and higher overall quality of life for the residents and shoppers. For example, the
design of the residential development should incorporate the following concepts:
Relocate the garage doors to the rear of the building (Abacoa, Celebration, Haily
Village, Town of Tioga, and Seaside), better pedestrian friendly street design, and
alleys. The buildings should be located close to the street. There should be more
emphasis on the front fa~ade by locating the porches to the front. Consider on-street
parking and narrow, slow speed streets (subject to Engineering approval). More
emphasis should be placed on the neighborhood focal points/vistas (gazebos, statuary
pedestrian spine, and water features), and neighborhood amenities such as centrally
located mail kiosks, dog-walking areas, and child playground areas.)
Response: Per staff direction, design elements have been incorporated into the
overall plan to achieve pedestrion links that are less dependant upon the automobile.
Based upon staff comments, the pedestrion connection between the commercial and
residential development has been relocated to provide an axis with the main spine
road of the residential development. This resulted in a redesign of the commercial
project. Further defining amenities, such as landscape features, hardscape elements,
etc., can be addressed as part of the Technical Site Plan Review
The developer did consider a conceptual layout that located garages to the rear of
the units. However, this approach resulted in the creation of a street and an alley,
consuming much of the overaU land area and reducing the number of units. This is
a small parcel in comparison to the examples provided by staff so it is not fi1UJncially
feasible to redesign the product and loose units to accommodate the garage in the
rear

77 It is anticipated that there will be higher pedestrian traffic as a result of this
prt>j~t (residential development on both sides of High Ridge Road), in part.. due to its
close proximity with the Tri-Rail station. This higher pedestrian traffic is encouraged.
However truck and other vehicular traffic on High Ridge Road could compromise
pedestrian connectivity and safety between the two (2) residential lots located on each
side of the roadway Staff recommends incorporating aesthetically pleasing traffic-
calming devices (subject to Engineering approval) on/near High Ridge Road that will
help to reduce vehicular speeds while protecting pedestrians traversing the roadway
Traffic lights and lower speed limits alone will not accomplish this objective.

Response to August 13th Comments from Public Works Department - Traffic
CGA Project No.. 02-2544
Dear Mr Rumpf'
The following addresses the August 13th comments regarding the proposed development
of Quantum Village at Quantum Park Lot 89B recently received from the City's PublIc
Works Department regarding outstanding traffic issues.
In an effort to clarify these ISSUes, Calvin, Giordano & ASSOCIates will address each of the
traffic engineering comments individually under this separate cover'letter This method
should provide you with the necessary infonnation requested in a clear and concise
manner
The August 13, 2002 comments are restated below in bold, with our response italICIzed.
3. Prior to issuance of any building permits the Developer shall evaluate the
impact of traffic (turning movements) on High Ridge Road, particularly at
the entrance to the Tri-Rail Station (unnamed road), at Gateway Boulevard
and at the proposed entrances into the residential portions of the project
(east and west from High Ridge Road), based on full build-out of the
residential and commercial properties for traffic signals. If signals are found
to be warranted, the Developer shall post a Letter of Credit in the amount of
110% of the estimated cost of signal installation against construction of the
signal. If signals are not warranted the Developer shall post a Letter of
Credit in the amount of 50% of the estimated cost of signal installation
against future construction of the signal based upon future development and
full build-out of the properties along the west side of High Ridge Road north
and south of this proposed project. Posting of the Letters of Credit shall be
required prior to issuance of any building permits. The Letter of Credit
shall expire three (3) years from its date of issue if the other off-site
improvements/developments do not proceed as anticipated.

Signal Warrant AnalysiS for High Ridge Road at Gateway Boulevard
The intersection of High Ridge Road and Gateway Boulevard is currently signalized. Therefore,
a signal warrant analysis was not performed.
Signal Warrant AnalysiSfor High Ridge Road at Project's Driveway
Quantum Village East (Lot 89B) is proposed to include 39 multi-family dwelling units, while the
development to the West will include 136 multi-family dwelling units. Based upon trip
generation analysis for this intensity, as summarized in Table 1, a total of 89 AM peak hour trips
and 108 PM peak hour trips will be generated by both residential developments. The trips for
each development were then distributed based upon the proximity of Gateway Boulevard and 1-
95, assuming a significant majority of the trips generated by these residential developments will
be oriented towards Gateway Boulevard. Figure 1 graphically depicts the proposed peak hour
turning movement volumes for the two developments.
,
Comments from City staff have indicated the need to assess whether or not a traffic signal is
warranted at the intersection serving both Quantum East (Lot 89B) and'Quantum West on High
Ridge Road. Traffic signals must meet implementation "warrants" as outlined in the Manual on
Uniform Traffic Control Devices, Millennium Edition (MUTCD 2000), based upon minimum
vehicular volumes for the major street (High Ridge Road) and the minor street (driveway
connection to Quantum East and Quantum West).
Warrant #1 (Eight-hour vehicular Volume) provides minimum hourly thresholds over an eight-
hour period that must be met by both the major and minor street to implement a traffic signal.
Assuming that High Ridge Road includes two lanes in the northbound and southbound direction
while the minor street has only one lane, traffic volumes per hour on the higher-volume
approach for the minor street must exceed 100 vehicles for eight (8) hours during an average
day Based on the attached trip generation analysis, the approach serving Quantum West (136
dwelling units which represents the largest approach volume) will only generate 58 trips during
the AM peak hour This volume will decrease dramatically during off-peak hours. Thp.rpfnrp.
Warrant #1 will not hp. mpt hy hui/dnut rifthp. prn}p.ct
Warrant #3 (Peak Hour) is intended for intersections where the peak hour volume is sufficient to
cause significant traffic delays to the minor street for a minimum of one (1) hour during an
average day This warrant is based upon corresponding minimum vehicular volume thresholds
for both the minor and major street. For example, as the amount of hourly volume increases on
the major street, the amount of minor street volume necessary to meet the warrant is decreased.
Given the number of lanes provided on High Ridge Road and the minor street approach with the
highest hourly volume, a minimum threshold of 100 vehicles during anyone (1) hour of an
average day must be present on the minor street approach (assummg that a hourly volume on
High Ridge Road exceeds 1,700 vehicles per hour does not occur). Sincp. thp. mar.imum hnurly

Sigrud Wammt Arudysis for High Ridge Road at Tri-Rail Station Driveway
Pursuant to the Inventory of Land Uses and Vested trips for Quantum Park, the Tri-Rail Station,
which is served by a single access driveway that intersects with High Ridge Road, is estimated to
generate 633 daily trips. Located approximately 500 feet south of the driveway proposed to
serve the residential development of Quantum Village East and Quantum Village West, the
number of trips using the Tri-Rail Station driveway is approximately one-half that expected to
use the residential driveway Si",.p thp Tri-Rnil Statinn dnp.r; nntp gpnprntp mnrp ppalr. hnur tripr;

4. As is being done with the Quantum Park and Villages South, the City will help facilitate a
"Recapture" agreement. The City will instigate new traffic studies as development continues
on the north side of Gateway Blvd. and work to have the developers reimbursed based on the
percent benefit each acquires from signalization.
Noted.
5. If a signal is not found to be required at this time, re-evaluate stopping sight distances for the
southbound lanes of High Ridge Road approaching the north commerciai entrance. It will be
necessary to eliminate landscaping, concrete walls and provide additional signage to provide
adequate advance notice for traffic approaching this driveway.
Since the intersection of High Ridge Road and the North Commercial driveway .entrance does not
meet warrants for signalization, stopping sight distances were evaluated at this intersection to
determine the potential impact resulting from the development of the adjacent residential parcel
immediately to the north.
Based upon a design speed of 35 miles per hour (although the posted speed limit is 30 miles per
hour), approximately 360 feet of sight distance must be provided at the North Commercial
driveway connection to High Ridge Road, per Palm Beach County and City of Boynton Beach
design standards. A review of the proposed site plan indicates that sufficient sight distance will be
provided at the North Commercial driveway connection, provided landscaping and other visual
obstructions are eliminated from the line of sight.
Based upon design standards, vegetation located in the sight distance area immediately north of
the commercial driveway will hI' hplnw :W inrhP.r; in hpight (nr~fP.rnhly Pvpn Ipu) nr grP.atP.r thnn

6. A Permit to Construct within the Public Right-of-Way, issued by the Engineering Division of
Public Works, will be required for work on Gateway Boulevard. Permits may also be
required from Palm Beach County and the Quantum Park POA for work on High Ridge
Road and Gateway Boulevard.
Noted.
7 Relocate the "transition" (three to two-lane northbound) on High Ridge Road (adjacent to
Lot 89B) north, so that the three-lane section extends to the north property line of Lot 89B.
This is to prevent turning movement and stacking conflicts for traffic entering the east and
west residential developments. Show proposed off-site roadway improvements (signing,
striping, curb, curb & gutter, pavement, etc.) for High Ridge Road and Gateway Boulevard.
The "transition" section of High Ridge Road, where the northbound outside through lane is
merged with the northbound inside through lane, corresponds with the approximate location of the.
residential driveway that will serve Lot 89B. Instead of extending the merge section further to the
north, we propose to utilize the northbound outside through lane, which is being dropped, as a
northbound right-turn lane serving the residential community. This will better define the flow of
traffic in the vicinity of the site by removing the northbound trips .oriented to Lot 89B from the
northbound through movement, thereby reducing vehicular conflicts and weaving maneuvers.
Improved signing and pavement marking will also improve the traffic operation in the merge
section of nprthbound High Ridge Road by providing motorists with the requisite information to
align their vehicles in the proper lane.
No off-site roadway improvements are proposed for the intersection of High Ridge Road and
Gateway Boulevard.
8. Extend the medians on High Ridge Road and, as necessary, on Gateway Boulevard, in
accordance with FDOT specifications to guide traffic into the proposed ingress lanes.
To assess whether or not the amount of vehicular storage is adequate to accommodate the
northbound left-turn movement into the residential development of Quantum Village West, the
anticipated queue during the peak hour must be determined. Based upon Highway Capacity
Manual 2000 methodology and the projected northbound left-turn movement volumes and
opposing southbound through traffic on High Ridge Road, thP. numhp.r rif vp.hidp.,<; in qUp.uP.

Therefore, it is not necessary to extend the median on High Ridge Road to guide traffic mto the
ingress lane.
Mr Michael Rumpf
August 28. 2002
Page 5 of6
However, the current median opening to be utilized by both residential developments is
approximately 115 feet wide, which is substantially wider tJuin the typical opening for this type of
development. Then:fore. to better thifine the tuming movement path~ within the intenectiorc, we
believe that both end nm~e.~ qf the medio.n ~hould be e:r:tended appmrimote~ 20 feet to IU1.1Tf)W
the openi1(g This would result in an opening approximately 75 feet wide, which would still
provide sufficient turning radiifor Single Unit truck design vehicles (identified as SU in AASHTO).
This improvement would also have the ancillary benefit of increasing the storage length available
for the northbound left turn.
It is not-necessary to modify any medians or turn lanes on Gateway Boulevard.
In addition to the comments receIVed from the Public Works department, the following comment provided
by the Planning and Zoning Department involves a component of traffic engineering and is addressed
herein.
77. It is anticipated that there will be Ingber pedestrian traffic as a result ..r this project
(residential development on both sides of High Ridge Road), in part, due to its close
proximity with the Tri-Rail Station. This higher pedestrian traffic is encouraged. However,
truck and other vehicular traffic on High Ridge Road could compromise pedestrian
connectivity and safety between the two (2) residential lots located on each side of the
roadway. StatTrecommends incorporating aesthetically pleasing traffic calming devices
(subject to Engineering approval) on/near High Ridge Road that will help reduce vehicular
speeds while protecting pedestrians traversing the roadway. Traffic lights and lower speed
limits alone will not.accomplish this objective.
We generally concur that pedestrian activity tolfrom the two residential developments from/to the
Tri-Rail Station should be encouraged in an effort to increase mass transit use. To that end, the
safe crossing of High Ridge Road for residents of the proposed community west of High Ridge
Road IS cntical.
An evaluation of available sight distance was performed at the proposed residential driveway
connection to High Ridge Road. It was determined that sufficient stopping sight distance is
provided for drivers traveling on High Ridge Road, given the landscaping within the median is
either below 30 inches in height (preferably even less) or greater than eight (8) feet in height
(preferably even more) to ensure that driver visibility is not obstructed. Therefore, pedestrians
may safely cross High Ridge Road and drivers travelmg on High Ridge Road will have ample
distance to safely stop if a pedestrian is in the travel path.
Recent research has Indicated that the presence of a raised median (or raised crossing island) to
provide a refuge for pedestrians was associated with a significantly lower crash rate at multi-lane
sites, given traffic conditions similar to that on High Ridge Road near the residential
developments. Since a raIsed median Island currently eXIsts, the inclusion of a marked crosswalk
Mr Michael Rumpf
August 28, 2002
Page 60f6
in combination with Pedestnan Crossing signs (Wll-2, MUTCD 2000) and Downward Arrow
signs (W16-7p, MUTCD 2(00) indicating the location of the crosswalk is proposed to delineate the
crossing area while providing a safe refuge for pedestrians. In addition, advanced warning signs
(Wll-2, MUTCD 2(00) would be placed further upstream on High Ridge Road to give mptorists
infonnation that a pedestrian crosswalk is ahead.
We believe that these proposed improvements would provide a pedestrian crossing that is safe,
provides connectivity between the two residential developments and the Tri-Rail Station, and if
designed properly, is aesthetically pleasing.

REQUEST FOR WAIVER OF PLATTING
QUANTUM PARK AT BOYNTON BEACH, PLAT NO 8
QUANTUM VILLAGE AT QUANTUM PARK- LOT 89B
Weare m receIpt of Ms. Sara Lockhart's letter dated July 17, 2002, dIrected to you requestmg a waIver of
plattmg for the reSIdentIal portIOns of Lots MU 83-88, and all of Lot 89B ThIS response addresses Lot
89B only
We have revIewed the survey as prepared by TImothy M. SmIth Land SurveYIng, Inc dated July 10,
2002, for the remamder of Lot 89B Upon reVIew of the records, prevIOusly a portIon of Lot 89B was
ahgned WIth Lot 89A to "square up" a pIece of land to create the former vehIcle mspectIOn statIOn SIte
The Issue WIth thIS request IS for the remamder of Lot 89B The proposed SIte plan for the remamder of
Lot 89B reflects a townhouse-type HOA project.
ThIS office has no ObjectIOn m supportmg a Waiver ofplattmg request pursuant to LDR, Chapter 5, ArtIcle
II, SectIOn 1.A. & 1.A.3., and SectIOn 1.B, !f thIS project IS an apartment rental-type development, where
the property WIll remam under one ownershIp
However, !f the mtentIOn of thIS townhouse-type HOA project IS for sale ofumts m the proposed four (4)
bUIldmgs, then a record plat WIll be reqUIred for IdentIficatIOn of the umts and lots assOCIated WIth each
bUIldmg, mcludmg new utIhty easements, common areas, recreatIonal areas, etc
I trust that response wIll meet your needs. If you have any questIOns, please adVIse me at x6488

1 st Review Planning
August 1, 2002
Staff recommends that the commercIal and residential design be consistent with "new urbanism"
pnnciples. Since the residential and commercIal uses are not really "mixed" but rather are
proposed on two separate, Isolated, tYPIcal suburban districts, there are subtle design elements
that can be incorporated mto the overall plan to achIeve neo-traditional development. The mtent
is to achieve less dependence on the automobile, better connectivity between the Tri-Rail /
commercial/residential uses, and higher overall quality of life for the resIdents and shoppers.
For example, the design of the residential development should incorporate the following
concepts. Relocate the garage doors to the rear of the bUIldmg (Abacoa, Celebration, Haily
Village, Town of Tioga, and Seaside), better pedestrian friendly street desIgn, and alleys. The
bUIldings should be located close to the street. There should be more emphaSIS on the front
fa~ade by locating the porches to the front. Consider on-street parkmg and narrow, slow speed
streets (subject to Engmeenng approval) More emphasis should be placed on neighborhood
focal pomts/vIstas (gazebos, statuary, pedestrian spine, and water features), and neighborhood
amenities such as centrally located mall kiosks, dog-walkmg areas, and child playground areas).
The approval of thIS master plan IS contmgent upon approval of the request to change NOPC #13
The project must obtam approval from the School District of Palm Beach County regardmg
school concurrency pnor to the Issuance of a bUIldmg permit.
Provide a phasing plan.
Provide a traffic impact study pnor to TechnIcal Review Committee (TRC)
On the SIte plan, indIcate the easement location and subIllit for a replat (subject to Engmeering
review).
Will each townhouse unit have a concrete patio in the rear? If so, the tabular data should reflect
the impervious / pervIOus percentages If each patIO was built-out.
The elevations and floor plans do not match the site plan.
On the SIte plan tabular data (sheet SP 1), indicate the proposed building height.
The floor plan data (SIze of units, number of units, number of required parkmg spaces) must
directly correspond wIth the tabular data of the site plan.
On the SIte plan tabular data, sheet SP 1, correct the land use to read 'Industnal wIth a Mixed Use
(MU) designation on the Quantum Park Master Plan" The proposed use can read
office/commercIal.
Final landscaping will be determined at the time of technical site plan approval for each phase.
Indicate the color schemes (by manufacturer name and number) to be used for this project.
No signage IS shown on the plans. Provide a SIgn program for all sIgnage. At this tIme, all
signage must be consistent with the master sign program from Quantum Park.
ProvIde a letter of approval from the Quantum Park Architectural Review Committee prior to the
Planmng & Development Board meetmg.
All proposed waivers must be approved WIth the Master Site plan. IndIcate all waivers on the SIte
plan sheet and provide justification for them. WaIvers must be advertIsed. Provide a lIst of
property owners withm 400 feet of the site boundarIes. Include envelopes, mailmg labels and
postage (Chapter 2, Section 7 P.3).
The parallel parkmg spaces must be 9 feet in width by 25 feet in length. Either revise the plans so
that the spaces comply or request a waIver from the Code.
The penmeter landscape buffer of the PID is 25 feet m WIdth. The drive aisles encroach into the
buffer Either revise the plans so that they do not encroach or request a waiver from the Code.
Incorporate a multi-purpose trail (jogging, bIcyclmg, rollerblading) into the deSIgn of the
resIdentIal portIOn of the project.
The survey should show existing natural features, such as lakes, trees, and other vegetation.
Place a note on the landscape plan indicating that mulch other than Cypress shall be used and
mamtamed for landscape purposes (Chapter 7.5, Article II, SectIOn 5 e.8.)
Fifty percent (50%) of site landscape materials must be natIve species. Indicate the amount of
native material m the plant lIst of the landscape plan (Chapter 7.5, ArtIcle II, Section 5.P)
It IS anticipated that there will be higher pedestrian traffic as a result of this project (residential
development on both sides of High Ridge Road), in part, due to its close proximity WIth the Tri-
Rail station. This hIgher pedestrIan traffic IS encouraged. However, truck and other vehIcular
traffic on High RIdge Road could compromise pedestrian connectIvity and safety between the
two (2) residential lots located on each SIde of the roadway Staff recommends mcorporatmg
aesthetically pleasing traffic-calming devices (subject to Engineering approval) on / near High
Ridge Road that will help to reduce vehicular speeds while protectmg pedestrians traversing the
roadway Traffic lights and lower speed lImits alone will not accomplIsh this objective.

DATE
RE
The above referenced Site Plans, received on July 24, 2002, were reviewed against the Master
Plan requirements (PID, Mixed Use Pod, Master Site Plan, LDR, Chapter 2, Section 7 P.2)
outlined in the City of Boynton Beach Code of Ordinances (available on-line at www.cLbovnton-
beach.fl.us) Following are the comments with the appropriate Code and Land Development
Regulations (LDR) referenced
PUBLIC WORKS - GENERAL
Code Requirements
1 City Ordinance (CODE, Chapter 10) requires that arrangements be made with the Public
Works Department for waste disposal and site access associated with this site plan
2 Add general note on the site and civil plans that all signing, striping, and pavement markings
shall conform to City Standard Drawing B-98001
PUBLIC WORKS - TRAFFIC
Code Requirements
1 Prior to issuance of any building permits the Developer shall evaluate the impact of traffic
(turning movements) on High Ridge Road, particularly at the entrance to the Tri-Rail Station
(unnamed road), at Gateway Boulevard and at the proposed entrances into the residential
portions of the project (east and west from High Ridge Road), based upon full build-out of
the residential and commercial properties for traffic signals If signals are found to be
warranted the Developer shall post a Letter of Credit in the amount of 110% of the estimated
cost of signal installation against construction of the signal If signals are not warranted the
Developer shall post a Letter of Credit in the amount of 50% of the estimated cost of signal
installation against future construction of the signal, based upon future development and full-
build-out of the properties along the west side of High Ridge Road north and south of this

proposed project. Posting of the Letters of Credit shall be required prior to issuance of any
building permits The Letter of Credit shall expire in three (3) years from its date of issue if
the other off-site improvements/developments does not proceed as anticipated
As is being done with the Quantum Park and Villages South, the City will help facilitate a
"Recapture" agreement. The City will instigate new traffic studies as development continues
on the north side of Gateway Blvd and work to have the developers reimbursed based on
the percent benefit each acquires from signalization
2 If a signal is not found to be required at this time, re-evaluate stopping sight distances for the
southbound lanes of High Ridge Road approaching the north commercial entrance It will be
necessary to eliminate landscaping, concrete walls and provide additional signing to provide
adequate advance notice for traffic approaching this driveway
3 A Permit to Construct within the Public Right-of-Way, issued by the Engineering Division of
Public Works, will be required for work on Gateway Boulevard Permits may also be required
from Palm Beach County and the Quantum Park POA for work on High Ridge Road and
Gateway Boulevard
4 Relocate the "transition" (three to two-lane northbound) on High Ridge Road (adjacent to Lot
89B) north, so that the three-lane section extends to the north property line of Lot 89B This
is to prevent turning movement and stacking conflicts for traffic entering the east and west
residential developments Show proposed off-site roadway improvements (signing, striping,
curb, curb & gutter, pavement, etc ) for High Ridge Road and Gateway Boulevard
5 Extend the medians on High Ridge Road and, as necessary, on Gateway Boulevard, in
accordance with FOOT specifications to guide traffic into the proposed ingress lanes
ENGINEERING
Code Requirements
1 Provide a sealed survey, not older than six (6) months, showing existing natural features and
existing elevations as required in the LOR, Chapter 2, Section 7 P.2 a The listed items are
not found on the provided survey
2 The Master Site Plan does not provide the use, height(s), dimensions and setbacks for the
proposed buildings and structures (including lighting), does not show the proposed fences
and walls with locations, dimensions, and setbacks, and does not show the correct
dimensions and setbacks for the proposed parking, driveways and sidewalks (LOR, Chapter
2, Section 7 P 2 b)

3 Add a note to the Landscape plan that there shall be unobstructed, cross visibility between
30 inches and 6 feet above the pavement within the clear sight areas Indicate the clear sight
distance on the site and landscape plans using FOOT Standard Index 546 for all driveways
4 Add a note to the Landscape plan on the method of irrigation
5 All interior residential roadways and the two (2) egress lanes from the residential
development shall be widened to a minimum of 12 foot lanes (total two-way roadway width of
24 foot - minimum)
6 The parallel parking spaces (at the south end of the residential development) shall be 9' x
25' per City Standard 8-90013
7 Provide a minimum of one handicap accessible guest parking space
Additional Comments
1 Provide a list of all easements within the project(s), including legal descriptions, that will
require abandonment for review and approval
2 Re-evaluate the proposed location of the mailboxes for easy resident accessibility
3 Provide written and graphic scales for the architectural plans
4 Indicate to what standard the project will be constructed, if the FOOT Standard
Specifications for Road & Bridge Construction and Standard Index are to be used - the 2000
Specifications are recommended since they contain both English and Metric units.
5 All revisions to these plans shall be reflected on all appropriate sheets
6 Indicate whether Westbrooke Homes (Quantum Village East) will be included in the
Quantum Village North homeowners association or if they will have their own
UTILITIES
Code Requirements
1 All utility easements shall be shown on the site and landscape drawings so that we may
determine which trees may interfere with utilities (either existing or proposed) In general,
palm trees will be the only tree species allowed within utility easements Canopy trees will
be planted outside of the easement so that roots and branches will not impact those utilities
within the easement in the foreseeable future The LOR, Chapter 7 5, Article I, Section 18 1
gives public utilities the authority to remove any trees that interfere with utility services, either
in utility easements or public rights-of-way

2 Palm Beach County Health Department permits will be required for the water and sewer
systems serving this project (CODE, Section 26-12)
3 CODE Section 26-34(E) requires that a capacity reservation fee be paid for this project either
upon the request for the Department's signature on the Health Department application forms
or within 30 days of site plan approval, whichever occurs first. This fee will be determined
based upon final meter size, or expected demand
4 Comprehensive Plan Policy 3 C 3 4 requires the conservation of potable water City water
may not, therefore, be used for irrigation where other sources are readily available
5 Water and sewer lines to be owned and operated by the City shall be included within utility
easements Please show all proposed easements on the engineering drawings, using a
minimum width of 12 feet. The easements shall be dedicated via separate instrument to the
City as stated in the CODE, Section 26-33(a)
6 Surety will not be required for installation of the water and sewer utilities, on condition that
the system(s) be fully completed, and transferred to the City Utilities Department before the
first permanent meter is set. Note that setting of a permanent water meter is a prerequisite to
obtaining the Certificate of Occupancy

RE Security Gates and Emergency Access
To Whom It May Concern
Boynton Beach Fire Rescue continues to maintain the pOSition that secunty gates are
potentially detrimental to fire and rescue operations The proliferation of security gated
communities has resulted in many problems for responding emergency apparatus trying to gain
entry
The minimum performance for all security gates shall be as follows
All secunty/entrance gates must have an electronic key number pad
2 The keypad will allow entrance by the simple act of pushing four (4) or five (5) buttons
3 All gates must have a security entry code approved In advance by the Fire Marshal
4 Gates may be operable by telephone from our dispatch office A phone call from our
dispatchers will open the gate and a second call will be reqUired to close the gate
5 In case of power failure the gate shall open automatically and remain open
6 An exception will be where a 24-hour security guard is stationed at the gate
7 A back-up device such as an authorized security box or key switch is reqUired to operate the
gate in the event the number pad entry does not work
8 A key box shall be installed for such areas or bUildings when the Fire Marshal determines
that access is necessary for all life-saving or fire-fighting purposes The type and location of
the key box shall be approved by the Fire Marshal and shall contain
· Keys to locked points of egress whether in common areas or on the intenor or exterior
of such buildings
. Keys to locked mechanical equipment rooms
. Keys to locked electrical rooms,
. Keys to elevator controls
9 No other code numbers, operating methods or key systems will be kept on file by the Fire
Rescue Department.
10 In the event that our units are unable to gain rapid entry with the above methods It Will
require the use of rapid forcible entry methods to gain entry The City of Boynton Beach
and/or the Fire Rescue Department shall not be responsible for or incur any costs as a
result of gaining access to a specific area
11 Information on where authorized key security boxes can be purcllased is available from
Boynton Beach Fire Rescue, Fire and Life Safety Division by calling (561) 742-6600 during
normal business hours
Failure to comply will result in the violation of Boynton Beach Code of Ordinances Section 9-3F
and Section 9-15 The liability of delayed Fire Rescue response to an emergency III your
community should be a serious concern
