County Engineering Department (PBCED), Palm Beach County Department of Environmental
Resource Management (PBCDERM) and any others, shall be included with the permit request.
14 All comments requiring changes and/or corrections to the plans shall be reflected on all appropriate
sheets
15 Please note that changes or revisions to these plans may generate additional comments
Acceptance of these plans during the TRC process does not ensure that additional comments may
not be generated by the Commission and at permit review
16 Specify use of the FDOT Standard Specifications for Road & Bridge Construction, and Standard
Index, 2000 Edition, as the construction standard
17 The lighting design shall provide a minimum average light level of one foot-candle The average
lighting levels proposed for the Publix parking lot are well in excess of that value Lighting shall not
be used as a form of advertising in a manner that draws more attention to the building or grounds at
night than in the day (LOR, Chapter 9, Section 10 F 5) Lighting shall be directed away from any

cross-visibility at a level between 2.5' and 8' above the pavement (LDR, Chapter 75, Article II,
Section 5 H )
21 Provide an engineer's certification on the Drainage Plan as specified in LDR, Chapter 4, Section
7 F 2.
22. Full drainage plans, including drainage calculations, in accordance with the LDR, Chapter 6, Article
IV, Section 5 will be required at the time of permitting
23 Indicate by note that catch basin and manhole covers shall be bicycle proof (LDR, Chapter 6, Article
IV, Section 5.A.2.g)
24 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
25 Paving, Drainage and Site details will not be reviewed for construction acceptability at this time All
engineering construction details shall be in accordance with the applicable City of Boynton Beach
Standard Drawings and the "Engineering Design Handbook and Construction Standards" and
will be reviewed at the time of construction permit application.
UTILITIES
26 All utility easements shall be shown on the rectified site plan (as well as the Water and Sewer Plan
Sheet and landscape drawings) so that we may determine which appurtenances, trees or shrubbery
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 75,
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 Proposed easements are shown on the
utilities plan and landscape plan, which will assist greatly in this review process.
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
CODE Sec. 26-33(a)
As an example, the existing wastewater easement traversing the project (adjacent to proposed
Building "F" in a southerly direction is not adequately addressed as to its realignment, reconstruction,
etc. This existing wastewater line is some 13 to 14 feet deep, which requires at least a 30-foot wide
utility easement, which is not reflected on the proposed plans
As a rule of thumb provide a minimum easement equal to two times the depth of the sanitary sewer
and centered on the sanitary sewer line For combined easements the overall width will be equal to
the depth of the sanitary line plus 10ft. for water/sanitary sewer main separation plus an additional 6
ft. past the water line Thus for the combined easement north of Building "E" provide a minimum 30
ft. easement.
Department of Development, Engineering Division Memo No 03-226
Re. Quantum Park & Village North (Commercial), New Site Plan 1st Review
November 24, 2003
Page 4
Changes in easement widths may require changes in utility alignments to resolve conflicts with
buildings or other structures
27 Palm Beach County Health Department permits will be required for the water and sewer systems
serving this project (CODE, Section 26-12)
28 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 (CODE, Section 26-16(b)) The removal of a 6-inch water main
loop connection to create a "dead-end" condition will not meet this requirement. The spur 6-inch
water main will be required to re-connect to the 10-inch water main located along the south side of
S W 19th Avenue via the entrance/exit driveway
29 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
30 Comprehensive Plan Policy 3 C 34 requires the conservation of potable water As other sources
are readily available City water shall not be allowed for irrigation
31 This office will not require surety for installation of the water and sewer utilities, on condition that the
systems be fully completed, and given 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
32. The LDR, Chapter 6, Article IV, Section 16 requires that all points on each building be within 200 feet
of an existing or proposed fire hydrant. Please demonstrate that the plan meets this condition by
showing all hydrants This requirement is not satisfied for the northeast corner of Building "F", the
middle of Building "B", or most of the Publix Supermarket.
33 PVC material not permitted on the City's water system. All lines shall be DIP
34 Appropriate backflow preventer(s) will be required on all commercial water service to the buildings,
and the fire sprinkler line if there are any, in accordance with CODE Sec. 26-207
35 Why is the existing sanitary sewer run from Canterbury at Quantum Village being realigned? It will
be less costly both in terms of money and time to retain the existing alignment. Additionally no
interruption of service would be required to make the proposed change. Please don't tell me
landscaping is the reason for the proposed change
36 Provide rim and invert elevations for all structures within the subject parcel
37 Eliminate the dead-end fire hydrant run at the northeast corner of the property That hydrant may be
tapped/teed into the water main in High Ridge Road
38 Eliminate the dead-end fire hydrant run from the northwest corner of Building "A" to the northwest
corner of Publix. Relocate hydrant to north of the aisle between Building "B" and Publix.

northwest corner of Building "F" and tie into the water main on the north side of Building "F"
40 Provide a minimum of one swab insertion point for the project.
41 Provide a permanent sampling station adjacent to the northeast corner of Building "F" or in the
landscape island north of that area
42. Relocate water meter and fire line connection at the rear of Publix to avoid conflict with the proposed
compactor
43 Sheet 4 of 8 is incorrectly titled "Paving & Drainage Plan" Correct to read "Water & Wastewater

UTILITIES
Comments.
24 All utilIty easements shall be shown on the rectified SIte plan (as well as the
Water and Sewer Plan Sheet and landscape drawings) so that we may
determme whIch appurtenances, trees or shrubbery may mterfere WIth
utilIties. In general, palm trees Will be the only tree speCIes allowed wIthm
utilIty easements. Canopy trees may be planted outsIde of the easement so
that roots and branches will not Impact those utilIties WIthm the easement m
the foreseeable future. The LDR, Chapter 7.5, ArtIcle I, SectIOn 18 1 gIVes
public utIhtIes the authonty to remove any trees that mterfere with utihty
semces, eIther m utihty easements or pubhc nghts-of-way Proposed
easements are shown on the utihtIes plan and landscape plan, WhICh will
aSSIst greatly m thIS reVIew process.
Water and sewer lInes to be owned and operated by the City shall be
included WIthin utihty easements. Please show all proposed easements on
the engmeenng drawmgs, usmg a mimmum WIdth of 12 feet. The easements
shall be dedIcated Via separate mstrument to the CIty as stated in CODE Sec
26-33(a)
As an example, the eXIstmg wastewater easement traversing the project
(adjacent to proposed BuIlding "F" m a southerly dIrection is not adequately
addressed as to ItS realIgnment, reconstructIOn, etc. ThIS eXIsting
wastewater hne is some 13 to 14 feet deep, WhICh reqUIres at least a 30-foot
WIde utihty easement, whIch IS not reflected on the proposed plans.
As a rule of thumb provide a mmImum easement equal to two times the
depth of the samtary sewer and centered on the samtary sewer hne. For
combmed easements the overall WIdth will be equal to the depth of the
sanItary line plus 10 feet for water/samtary sewer mam separation plus an
addItional 6 feet past the water hne Thus for the combined easement north
of Building "E" proVIde a minimum 30 foot easement.
Changes in easement Widths may reqUIre changes m utility alignments to
resolve conflIcts with buildmgs or other structures.

31 The LDR, Chapter 6, Article IV, Section 16 reqUIres that all pomts on each

UTILITIES
Comments.
24 All utility easements shall be shown on the rectified site plan (as well as the
Water and Sewer Plan Sheet and landscape drawings) so that we may
determine which appurtenances, trees or shrubbery 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 m
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 nghts-of-way Proposed
easements are shown on the utilItIes plan and landscape plan, whICh will
assist greatly in thIS review process.
Water and sewer lInes to be owned and operated by the City shall be
included withm utility easements. Please show all proposed easements on
the engmeering drawings, usmg a minimum width of 12 feet. The easements
shall be dedicated VIa separate instrument to the CIty as stated in CODE Sec.
26-33(a).
As an example, the existing wastewater easement traversmg the project
(adjacent to proposed Buildmg "F" m a southerly direction is not adequately
addressed as to its realignment, reconstruction, etc. This existing
wastewater line IS some 13 to 14 feet deep, WhICh requires at least a 30-foot
wide utility easement, which IS not reflected on the proposed plans.
As a rule of thumb provide a minimum easement equal to two times the
depth of the sanitary sewer and centered on the sanItary sewer line. For
combined easements the overall WIdth will be equal to the depth of the
sanitary line plus 10 feet for water/sanitary sewer mam separation plus an
additional 6 feet past the water line. Thus for the combmed easement north
of Building "E" provide a minimum 30 foot easement.
Changes in easement widths may reqUIre changes m utility alIgnments to
resolve conflicts WIth buildillj~s or other structures.

UTILITIES
Comments:
24 All utility easements shall be shown on the rectified site plan (as well as the
Water and Sewer Plan Sheet and landscape drawings) so that we may
determine which appurtenances, trees or shrubbery 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 utihties the authonty to remove any trees that interfere with utility
services, either in utility easements or public nghts-of-way Proposed
easements are shown on the utilities plan and landscape plan, which will
assist greatly In this review process.
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 CODE Sec.
26-33(a).
As an example, the existing wastewater easement traversing the project
(adjacent to proposed Building "F" in a southerly direction is not adequately
addressed as to its realignment, reconstructIOn, etc. This existIng
wastewater hne is some 13 to 14 feet deep, which requires at least a 30-foot
wide utility easement, which is not reflected on the proposed plans.
As a rule of thumb prOVIde a minimum easement equal to two tImes the
depth of the sanitary sewer and centered on the sanitary sewer hne. For
combined easements the overall width will be equal to the depth of the
sanitary line plus 10 feet for water/sanitary sewer main separation plus an
additional 6 feet past the water line. Thus for the combIned easement north
of Building "E" provide a minimum 30 foot easement.
Changes in easement WIdths may require changes in utility alignments to
resolve conflicts with buildin2s or other structures.

UTILITIES
Comments:
24 All utility easements shall be shown on the rectified site plan (as well as the i......
Water and Sewer Plan Sheet and landscape drawings) so that we may 3'UI0:l-
determine which appurtenances, trees or shrubbery may interfere wi
utilitIes. In general, palm trees will be the only tree species allowed wi~~
utihty easements. Canopy trees may be planted outside of the easement J~~
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 utihty
services, either in utihty easements or pubhc rights-of-way Proposed
easements are shown on the utilities plan and landscape plan, which will
assist greatly m this reVIew process.
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 mstrument to the City as stated in CODE Sec.
26-33(a).
As an example, the existing wastewater easement traversmg the project
(adjacent to proposed Building "F" in a southerly direction is not adequately
addressed as to its reahgnment, reconstruction, etc. This existmg
wastewater line is some 13 to 14 feet deep, which requires at least a 30-foot
wide utility easement, which IS not reflected on the proposed plans.
As a rule of thumb provide a minimum easement equal to two times the
depth of the sanItary sewer and centered on the sanitary sewer line. For
combmed easements the overall WIdth will be equal to the depth of the
sanitary line plus 10 feet for water/sanItary sewer mam separation plus an
additional 6 feet past the water line. Thus for the combined easement north
of Building "E" provide a minimum 30 foot easement.
Changes in easement widths may requITe changes in utility alignments to
resolve conflIcts with buildings or other structures.

Comments.
24 All utility easements shall be shown on the rectified site plan (as well as the
Water and Sewer Plan Sheet and landscape drawings) so that we may
deternnne which appurtenances, trees or shrubbery may interfere with
utilities. In general, palm trees will be the only tree species allowed withm /'
utihty 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 utihties the authonty to remove any trees that mterfere with utility
semces, eIther in utihty easements or public nghts-of-way Proposed
easements are shown on the utihtIes plan and landscape plan, which will
assist greatly in thIS reView process.
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 CODE Sec.
26-33(a).
As an example, the existing wastewater easement traversing the project
(adjacent to proposed Building "P" m a southerly direction is not adequately
addressed as to its realignment, reconstructIon, etc. This existing
wastewater hne is some 13 to 14 feet deep, which requires at least a 30-foot
wide utility easement, which IS not reflected on the proposed plans.
As a rule of thumb provide a mmimum easement equal to two times the
depth of the sanitary sewer and centered on the sanitary sewer lme. For
combined easements the overall Width will be equal to the depth of the
sanitary line plus 10 feet for water/sanitary sewer main separatIOn plus an
additIOnal 6 feet past the water hne. Thus for the combined easement north
of Building "E" provide a nunimum 30 foot easement.
Changes in easement Widths may require changes in utility alignments to
resolve conflicts with buildings or other structures.
