BACKGROUND
On May 7, 2002, the City approved the site plan for the Quantum Park Townhomes East and West. The
developer proposed to construct 271 fee simple townhome 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 The original
Quantum Park lots 23-31 (west) will contain 169 units and lots 7-11 (east) will contain 102 units. The Plat of
Quantum Park at Boynton Beach provides that Quantum Boulevard (Tract B) is dedicated to various utilities.
The roadway known as Quantum Boulevard (Tract "B") was created as a 100-foot right-of-way via the plat of
QUANTUM PARK AT BOYNTON BEACH, P I D PLAT NO 2, approved by the City on June 16,1987, and
recorded in P B 59, Pages 184-185, Public Records of Palm Beach County on September 10,1989
D R. Horton, Inc., re-platted the area via the plat now known as QUANTUM PARK TOWNHOMES,
approved by the City on April 14, 2003, and recorded in P B 98, Pages 126-130, Public Records of Palm
Beach County on April 15, 2003 That portion of Tract liB" passing through this plat was reduced from a
1 OO-foot right-of-way to a 50-foot right-of-way as part of this re-platting process, reviewed, accepted and
approved by the City Commission
Although the applicant concurs that the 1 OO-foot right-of-way was reduced to a 50-foot right-of-way through the
re-platting process of April 2003, the applicant acknowledges that the abandonment process is necessary to
properly/completely abandon the public right-of-way through the public hearing process/protocol. Once this right-
of-way is vacated, it will coincide with the plat for Quantum Park Townhomes
ANALYSIS
Pursuant to Chapter 22, Article III, Section 4, public notice was given to the property owners that abut the
easement to be abandoned, all utility companies have been notified and the request has been advertised in the
newspaper A summary of the responses from the utility companies and city staff is as follows.

longer provides a public service Therefore, Staff recommends that this request to abandon a portion ofthe 100-
foot wide road right-of-way for Quantum Boulevard as described above, be approved, subject to the comments
