DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT
Project Name/No Quantum Townhomes East & West (Lots 7-11 and 23-31) / NWSP 02-002
Property Owner' Quantum Limited Partners, L.L.C
Applicant/Agent: Continental Homes (Contract Purchaser) / Julian Bl)8n, Julian Bryan & Associates
Location Lots 7-11 and 23-31 Quantum Park
Land Use/Zoning Industrial/Planned Industrial Development (PID)
Quantum Park DRI Land Use is Mxed Use - MU
Type of Use Residential Multi-family Townhomes
Project size Site Area 31 5 acres (Includes water tracts and road right-of-way)
Dwelling Units 271
Adjacent Uses (see Exhibit "A" - Location rvlap)
North - Quantum Park Tract 92 currently vacant and designated for a City Park;
South - Quantum Park Tract 22, Masonic Lodge, designated Office (0) and Tract 6,
Stanton Magnetics, designated industrial (I),
East Quantum Park Water Management Tract and designated Wetland area, and
West - The Lake Worth Drainage District (LWDD) E-4Canal and farther west, Dos
Lagos residential development zoned PUD
Site Characteristics The subject vacant parcels within the Quantum Park PID contain various trees and
undergrowth characteristic of disturbed scrub habitat. According to the environmental report
submitted by the applicant, the vegetation is dominated by weedy species due to past
clearing of the site Tree species include Brazilian pepper, earleaf acacia, Australian pine
and cabbage palm A few cocoplum and seagrape shrubs exist on site During the field
survey conducted on April 9, 2002 several gopher tortoise burrows were located It is
estimated that the site may contain four (4) or five- (5) gopher tortoise The relocation of the
gopher tortoise will require a special on-site permit from the Florida Game and Fresh Water
Fish Commission (FGFWFC)
Proposal
The developer proposes to construct 271 fee simple town home units on 23.27 developable
acres The units will be built on either side of Quantum Boulevard in the northwest corner of
the Quantum Park PID Lots 23-31 (west) will contain 169 units and lots 7-11 (east) will
contain 102 units These will be two and three-story, town homes attached in clusters of four
to seven units The three story units located on the east side of Quantum Boulevard will all
have three bedrooms, two and one-half baths and two car garages The two-story units on
the west side of Quantum Boulevard will all have three bedrooms, two and one-half baths
and one car garages (see Exhibit "B" - Proposed Site Plan) The development will include a
1 500 square foot clubhouse swimming pool tot lot, volleyball court and large grassed play
area for use by all residents
On November 6 2001 the City Commission approved Quantum Park DRI Development
Order Amendment #12 changing the land use designations for lots 7-11 and 23 - 31 to allow
"Mixed Use" (MU) development. In addition, the total number of residential dwelling units
Page 2
Quantum Townhomes East & West Site Plan Review Staff Report
Memorandum No PZ 02-072
permitted in Quantum Park VIaS increased from 500 to 1000
On April 16, 2002 the City Commission approved Ordinance No. 02-017amending the
"pod" definition to include all parcels designated for "Mixed Use" in a PID, thereby
allowing consolidated parcels designated for "Mixed Use" to be used solely for
residential development. Prior to this amendment, the definition of a "pod" required
that consolidated lands designated "Mixed Use" contain a combination of office,
commercial and residential uses.
Concurrency'
a. Traffic-
A traffic statement for this project was submitted and approved by the Palm Beach
County Traffic Division
b. Drainage-
Conceptual drainage information was provided for the City's review The Engineering
Division is recommending that the review of specific drainage solutions be deferred
until time of permit review
Driveways
The major entrances for the project will be located on Quantum Boulevard The entrance
location for the east and west side of the development are aligned and separated by a traffic
circle proposed for the middle of Quantum Boulevard Each entrance provides two ingress
drive aisles separated by a four (4) foot median and one egress drive aisle The ingress and
egress lanes are separated by a minimum 16-foot heavily landscaped median The traffic
circle configuration permits right-turn in and right-turn out access only onto Quantum
Boulevard Electronic entry gates are located at the north and south entrances of the interior
circulation drive on both east and \Alest sides of the proposed development.
A significant feature of this project is the applicant's proposal to reduce the right-of way for
Quantum Boulevard from four lanes divided by a median to two lanes with a traffic circle
This right-of-way reduction affects the portion of Quantum Boulevard that bisects the east
and west portions of the project. Reducing the right-of-way in this area together with the
traffic circle provides traffic calming measures that help to slow traffic and create a more
cohesive development.
Parking Facility
The parking requirement for the proposed development is based on the PUD standard of
two (2) spaces per unit plus 12 spaces for recreation facilities and the leasing office The
east side of the development with 102 units provides 204 garage spaces and 34 guest
spaces for a total of 238 spaces The 34 guest spaces are located throughout the site as
parallel parking along the interior roadVlaYs.
The west side of the development with 169 units provides 169 garage spaces and 338
driveway spaces for a total of 507 spaces This equates to three (3) spaces per unit. Also
provided are 14 spaces for the recreation area This includes one handicap space
Parking space dimensions will conform to code requirements except for those spaces
provided in front of an enclosed garage space These spaces are three (3) feet less than
the required 12-foot width as required by code This code deviation specifically affects the
site plan for the west side of the project.
A code waiver is requested to allow a reduction in required parkinQ for parkina space width
for the first space not Iftithin an enclosed QaraQe as required bv Chapter 2. Section 11. H. 2.
Landscaping
The landscaping proposed for the site will meet or exceed the code Extensive foundation
Page 3
Quantum Townhomes East & West Site Plan Review Staff Report
Memorandum No PZ 02-072
plantings are proposed for all of the townhouse buildings as well as the clubhouse and
recreation area The project entrance landscape designs mirror one another and include
Coconut Palms, clusters of Sabal Palms, and Yellow Tababuia Staff recommends the
addition of signature trees at the two entrances to the development (see Conditions of
Approval - Exhibit "0") The center of the traffic circle on Quantum Boulevard contains
Sabal Palms, Viburnam Odoratissimum and Wax Jasmine shrubs
A 20 foot landscaped buffer is proposed along both sides of Quantum Lakes Drive Along
the east side of Quantum Lakes Drive the buffer will be heavily landscaped with Mahogany
and Live Oak trees, Sabal palms and a variety of shrubs and ground cover The existing
sidewalk will remain The west side of Quantum Boulevard will be lined with oak trees
spaced 30 feet on center as required by code
In accordance with code requirements the project will be properly buffered from the adjacent
land uses to the north and south The parcel to the south of tract 7 (east side) is
designated "Industrial" on the Quantum Park Master Plan and developed for Stanton
Magnetics The parcel to the south of tract 23 (west side) is designated Office on the
Quantum Park Master Plan is developed or the Masonic Lodge Along the south property
line of tracts 7 and 23 a five foot chain link fence and Cocoplum hedge will be provided It
will also include Live Oak or Dahoon Holly trees planted every 30 feet. To the north of tract
31, the project will be buffered from the city park site by a six-(6) foot chain link fence and
Cocoplum hedge It will also include Live Oak trees planted 30 feet on center
A 40 foot buffer is required along the LWDD E-4 Canal per the Quantum Park Peripheral
Landscape Buffer Plan A 20 foot portion of the required buffer is canal right-of-way The
remaining 20 feet will be planted with Dahoon Holly trees 30 feet on center and a Cocoplum
hedge Tracts 7 -11 are located adjacent to a lake tract br Quantum Park. The buffer varies
from five (5) feet to seven (7) feet along this area depending on the location of parallel
parking spaces Landscaping in this buffer include, Live Oak and Mahagony trees, Sabal
Palm clusters and Wax Jasmine shrubs A six-(6) foot asphalt pedestrian pathway will be
provided along the lake bank.
Building and Site This application is considered a "technical site plan" as defined in Chapter 2, Section 7 P of
the Land Development Regulations A total of three (3) waivers are requested in conjunction
with this submittal In addition to the parking space size waiver discussed above, the
applicant is requesting waivers for side yard setback and building separation requirements
A list of the requested waivers is located on the site plan as required by the waiver
procedures and the required justification statement is located in Exhibit "C" of this report. All
other building and site regulations will be met when staff comments are incorporated into
the permit drawings
Code waivers are also requested for a reduced side yard setback and reduced buildina
separation requirements as required bv PIO district reaulations.
Community Design The project consists of 271 two and three-story fee simple townhomes The buildings are
designed with stucco fac;:ades and terra cotta s-barrel tile root Other fac;:ade enhancements
include covered porches, shuttered windows and textured banding Garage doors will not
face Quantum Boulevard A complimentary palette of fac;:ade colors will be used with two
color schemes proposed Exterior wall colors will vary from a light cream to beige Shutters
will be "Midnight Blue" Sidewalks are provided throughout the development as well as lush
landscaping around the buildings, the recreation facilities and common areas The building
materials are similar in character to those used for the Villas at Quantum Lake rental

apartment project. The terra cotta s-barrel tile roofs are compatible with the Dos Lagos
residential development across the LWOO E-4 canal to the oost.
Signage
No signage was submitted with this application Project signage will be submitted separately
for review/approval by the Planning and Development Board
RECOMMENDATION.
Staff has reviewed the waiver requests and has no objection The following is a brief assessment of the three (3)
waiver requests
Parkinq Space Width - Staff concurs with the applicant's justification
Reduced Buildinq Separation - Staff concurs with the applicant's justification For review purposes, this
townhome development resembles a PUO development. The existing PUO regulations allow flexibility for
setbacks, as they should for this type of development.
Reduced Side Yard Setbacks - Staff concurs with the applicant's justification This waiver affects one area of
the site plan in the northeast corner oftract 11
Staff recommends that this site plan request, including waivers, be approved subject to the comments included in
Exhibit "0" - Conditions of Approval The Technical Review Committee (TRC) recommends that the deficiencies
identified in this exhibit be corrected on the set of plans submitted for building permit.

The Parks Department has reviewed the revised Site Plans and developer responses The following
comments are submitted
1 For comments #83 -89, the developer has responded "Developer will pay fee in lieu of land per
Quantum Park agreement" This would assume that the City Commission approves a generalized
fee for all of Quantum Park. If it does not then the existing Parks Department comments would
remain in effect.
2. Comment #90, a chain link fence and hedges will be sufficient as long as there is written
provision that the property owners association is responsible for maintaining the hedges on all sides
It is acceptable for POA workers to come on City Park Property in order to maintain the hedge

1 City Ordinance (CODE, Chapter 10) requires that arrangements be made with the Public
Works Department for any waste disposal associated with this site plan Per General Note
#6 on Sheet(s) SP-1 (both projects) "Solid waste collection will be by curbside pick-up" One
or more 90 gallon roll-out cans should be specified at the Clubhouse
ENGINEERING
Code Requirements
1 Add a general note to the Site Plan that all plans submitted for specific permits shall meet
the City's Code requirements at time of application These permits include, but are not
limited to, the following paving, drainage, curbing, site lighting, landscaping and irrigation
Permits required from other permitting agencies such as Florida Department of
Transportation (FDOT), South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD), Lake Worth
Drainage District (LWDD), Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP), Palm
Beach County Health Department (PBCHD), Palm Beach County Engineering Department

2 A Land Development permit will be required prior to commencement of construction of
required improvements The Land Development permit will be issued by the Director of
Development in conjunction with, approval of, and agreement for construction of required
improvements, and after formal approval of the final plat by the City Commission (LOR,
Chapter 5, Section 7)
3 This development will require re-platting to identify the individual fee simple units The
Homeowner's Association documents will require review and approval prior to recordation
4 Re-platting will also be required to properly "enclose" the roundabout within the roadway
right-of-way
5 Show all existing utilities on Site Characteristics Map (Survey) and Site Development plan
(LOR, Chapter 4, Section A.3)
6 Provide a separate scaled Drainage Plan (LOR, Chapter 4, Section 7 F and 7 G) Provide
engineer's certification and Rider to the Site Plan Applications Specify storm sewer
diameters, inlets types, etc. on drainage plan Indicate grate, rim and invert elevations for all
structures Indicate grade of storm sewer segments Indicate material specifications for
storm sewer
7 Show on the Site and Preliminary Site Engineering plans the proposed site lighting (LOR,
Chapter 4, Section 7 B 4 )
8 A Lighting Plan including photometrics, pole wind loading, and pole details in conformance
with the LOR, Chapter 6, Article IV, Section 11, Chapter 23, Article I, Section 5 B 7 and
Chapter 23, Article II, Section A will be required at the time of permitting On the Lighting
Plan, specify that the light poles shall withstand a 110 MPH wind load Add a note that the
fixtures shall be operated by photo-electrical control and to remain on until 2 00 a m (LOR,
Chapter 23, Article II) Add a note that the lighting design shall provide a minimum average
of one foot-candle lumen at ground level Artificial lighting used to illuminate any property
shall be directed away from all residential districts Lighting shall not be used as a form of
advertising (LOR, Chapter 2, Section 4 N 7 & Chapter 9, Section 10 F 5) A Lighting Plan
should be provided at this time since both street and site lighting need to be evaluated It is
much easier to identify and correct any deficiencies now than while you are waiting on a
permit!
9 It may be necessary to replace or relocate large canopy trees adjacent to light fixtures to
eliminate future shadowing on the parking surface (LOR, Chapter 23, Article II, Section
A.1 b) No site lighting shown on the plans

23 For those townhomes with two outside spaces, widen the driveway width from 18 feet (2-9
foot spaces) to 21 feet (one 12 foot space and 1 9 foot space) in accordance with the LOR,
Section 11 H 2
24 Provide a typical detail for the "Grouped Mail Boxes" and their proposed locations
25 It is the opinion of Staff that the revision of Quantum Boulevard from a four-lane, divided
roadway to a two-lane, undivided roadway is more appropriately handled as a Master Site
Plan Modification Staff recognizes that this is not part of our normal evaluation and we
therefore defer final disposition of the roadway cross-section, as it relates to the Master Plan,
to the Planning & Zoning Staff
26 Should the Planning & Zoning Staff opine that a two-lane roadway section on Quantum
Boulevard is reasonable then the Engineering Staff offers the following comments as related
to the proposed design submittal
o The Developer shall conduct a current Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) at the intersections of
Quantum Blvd & Congress Ave and Quantum Blvd & Gateway Blvd to determine if traffic
signals will be warranted, given the additional traffic generated by the proposed townhomes
(271 units) The TIA shall be performed in accordance with the current Palm Beach County
Traffic Performance Standards
o Should signals be warranted the Developer shall be required to post a letter of credit in the
amount of 110% of the estimated cost of installation of traffic signals prior to issuance of any
building permit(s)
o The responsibility for the cost of the traffic signals shall rest with Quantum Townhomes This
is consistent with the previously stated opinion of Quantum Limited Partners that all traffic
related improvements shall be borne by all developers of vacant parcel (rather than by
Quantum Limited Partners)
o Roadway design shall be in accordance with the current editions of the AASHTO Policy on
the Geometric DesiQn of Streets & Hiqhways (Green Book) and Manual on Uniform Traffic
Control Devices (MUTCD) using a semi-tractor/trailer (18-wheeler) as the design vehicle
Turning movements, radii and transitions at the roundabout and transitions at the site limits
need to be verified against the stated standards
o Existing roadway lighting was not shown on these plans These will need to be identified on
the site and civil plan sheets and a design prepared for street lighting relocation and
replacement to accommodate the proposed roadway configuration change(s)
o Staff would prefer that water and sewer, on Quantum Blvd , be placed within the roadway
right-of-way rather than an easement, the concern being future accessibility

5 Recommend providing a minimum of 10 foot clearance between oaks and other large
canopy trees and the property line to allow adequate room for pruning, etc
6 Because of the number of species shown in the Landscaping Plant List it would be helpful if
a graphic representation of plantings was also shown on the Plant List legend

UTILITIES
Code Requirements - Quantum Townhomes East
1 As previously stated on this project (MPMD 01-003/DRIA 01-001), the proposed land use
revision to "Mixed Use (MU)" to include Office, Commercial and Residential uses could tax
the existing utility support facilities to their limits A proviso was added to the Quantum Park
NOPC Amendment #12 (approved on November 6, 2001) that requires for each group of lot
approvals (nka Quantum Park Townhomes East & West), the design-engineering consultant
is required to demonstrate that sufficient utility system(s) capacity is available to support the
proposed use, or that they (the applicant) will provide the necessary upgrade(s) for the
proposed use Failure to do so could result in insufficient utility capacity to support this park,
affecting other current (existing) users To date, no support calculations or documentation
has been presented to refute the Utilities Department's statement.

2 All utility easements shall be shown on the rectified site plan and landscaping drawings so
that we may determine which trees may interfere with utilities In general, palm trees will be
the only tree species allowed within utility easements Canopy trees may 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 It appears that only storm drainage could be affected by landscape
confl icts
3 Palm Beach County Health Department permits will be required for the water and sewer
systems serving this project (CODE, Section 26-12)
4 Fire flow calculations will be required demonstrating the City Code requirement of 1,500
g P m as stated in the LDR, Chapter 6, Article IV, Section 16, or the requirement imposed by
insurance underwriters, whichever is greater (see CODE, Section 26-16(a))
5 The 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
6 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
7 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)
8 Appropriate backflow preventers will be required on the domestic water service to the
building and/or units, and the fire sprinkler line if there is one, in accordance with the CODE,
Section 26-207

To date, no support calculations or documentation has been presented to refute the Utilities
Department's statement.
2 All utility easements shall be shown on the rectified site plan and landscaping drawings so
that we may determine which trees may interfere with utilities In general, palm trees will be
the only tree species allowed within utility easements Canopy trees may 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 It appears that only storm drainage could be affected by landscape
conflicts
3 Palm Beach County Health Department permits will be required for the water and sewer
systems serving this project (CODE, Section 26-12)
4 Fire flow calculations will be required demonstrating the City Code requirement of 1,500
g P m at stated in the LDR, Chapter 6, Article IV, Section 16, or the requirement imposed by
insurance underwriters, whichever is greater (see CODE, Section 26-16(a))
5 The 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
6 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
7 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)

8 Appropriate backflow preventers will be required on the domestic water service to the
building and/or units, and the fire sprinkler line if there is one, in accordance with the CODE,
Section 26-207
Recommendations/Corrections
1 Staff would prefer that water and sewer, on Quantum Blvd, be placed within the roadway
right-of-way rather than an easement, the concern being future accessibility

Site Plans - Quantum Park Townhomes West & Quantum Park
Townhomes East
Date
March 12, 2002
The Parks Department has reviewed the site plans submitted for the Quantum
Park Townhomes West and the Quantum Park Townhomes East. The following
comments are submitted
1 As a condition of issuance of a land development order for a residential
planned unit development the developer shall dedicate land, pay a fee in lieu
thereof or both, at the option of the city, for park or recreational purposes and
according to the standards and formula in Chapter 1, Article V in the land
Development Code
2 Plans indicate that Quantum Park Townhomes West contains 169 multifamily
dwelling units and Quantum Park Townhomes East contains 102 multifamily
dwelling
Based on the total 271 multifamily dwelling units the dedication requirement is
computed as follows
271 multifamily dwelling units x 015 acres each = 4 065 acres
3 The developer has the option of applying for % credit for private recreation
provided In order to qualify for % credit, the developer needs to provide a
minimum of 5 of the local park basic requirements listed below, or a
combination of such, and other recreational improvements that will meet the
recreation needs of future residents of the area
a Children's play apparatus area
b Landscape park-like &quiet areas
c. Family picnic areas
d Turf playfield
e Swimming pool & lawn areas
f Recreation center building
The developer is applying for % credit for private recreation provided Below are
the recreation elements listed on the plans
a Children's play apparatus area
b Sand volleyball court
c. Swimming pool
d Recreation center building
e Landscape park-like quite areas
f Family picnic area/barbeque
g Turf playfield
-In order to qualify for % credit the developer must provide details demonstrating
that the children's play apparatus is of sufficient size and quality to meet the
needs of the project.
-Developer must also provide details demonstrating that the barbeque area is of
sufficient size and quality to meet the needs of the project. It must be moved to
an area that allows for a sufficient size turf playfield to be provided
-Details must be provided to support the designation of a landscape and quiet
area.
4 If % credit for recreation is granted the dedication requirement is computed as
follows
4065 acres divided by 2 = 2 f0325 acres
5 Assuming the above listed criteria is met, % credit for private recreation is
recommended Parks Department staff is available to meet with the
developer to discuss criteria in order to qualify for % credit.
6 The developer may also apply for ~ credit for natural resources The TRC
shall make a recommendation of natural resource credit on any site subject
to development which contains natural resource areas of native plant
vegetation The TRC shall make a recommendation for natural resource
credit based on the following factors
a Pu blic access
b Management and maintenance plan
c Existing condition of the natural habitat
d Proposed restoration methods
e The proportionate size of the habitat to the
entire development
f The existence of protected species within the
habitat.
Assuming that the developer meets the above listed criteria and 'X natural
resources credit is recommended, it would be computed in the following manner
4065 acres divided by 4 = 1 01625 acres
6 If both credit for private recreation and natural resources is recommended the
total recreation dedication requirement would be computed in the following
manner
Full recreation dedication requirement = 4 06500
- % credit for private recreation = 2 03250
- 'X credit for natural resources = 1.01625
Recreation requirement less credits = 1 01625 acres
This department recommends fee in lieu of land
7 It is strongly recommended that the developer provide a masonry wall in order
to buffer the residents from the future park site to the north and east of the
project.
8 Provide to the city, at the close of construction, as-built plans showing the
locations of irrigation lines in city rights-of -way
