CORRESPONDENCE (i . f- .. From: Bressner, Kurt Sent: Monday, August 14, 2006 6:14 PM To: Taylor, Jerry; McKoy, Carl; Ferguson, Mike; McCray, Mack; 'EnslerB@aol.com' Cc: Cherof, James; Livergood, Jeffrey; Greene, Quintus Subject: Quantum NOPC #16 Follow-up Items Issue #1 Traffic Signals at Quantum Blvd/Gateway and Quantum Blvd/Congress At the last meeting, it was suggested that I review the NOPC #12 file to obtain information on traffic signal warrants and requirements for Quantum. If you will recall at the meeting, Mr. Gerlica suggested that I review the file. I did. NOPC #12 was approved by the City Commission on October 16, 2001. The NOPC was a major change from office and industrial land uses on the Quantum pro to 'mixed use" that would allow the construction of residential. The previous cap of 500 dwelling units of 500 units was raised to 1,000 units. The traffic signal issue in 2001 was called out under condition #1 _ When warranted the developer and the existing occupants of Quantum Park will be responsible for the cost of construction of traffic-actuated signals and the intersections of Quantum Boulevard with Gateway and Congress Avenue. See attached memo from Jeff Livergood, Public Works Director, dated August 29, 2001/revised October 4, 2001 located in Exhibit G." The recommendation from page 3 of the October 4, 2001 memo from Jeff Livergood was as follows: Recommendation It is very clear that traffic signals are either currently warranted, or will be warranted in the future at both Gateway Boulevard and Congress Avenue. These signals will be necessary entirely because of development in Quantum Park. Thus staff believes that the cost of constructing these signals should be borne by future builders as well as by those tenants of the industrial park that are presently generating traffic. It would not be appropriate to have the City of Boynton Beach pay for the traffic signals when other capital improvements are either more important or have been delayed in prior years awaiting funding. If the City does not obtain surety for the installation of a traffic signal at this time, it will be virtually impossible to assess the requirement for traffic signal construction to each individual that may purchase mixed use lots from Quantum then subsequently develop them. The burden of traffic signal construction should fall upon the developer of the whole rather than the individuals that choose to acquire and develop lots in the future. Quantum could easily distribute the cost equally to future buyers whereas the City could not. Likewise Quantum has significant control over the property owners association and has the ability to initiate a special assessment of existing properties for their share of the traffic signal construction. Staff recommends that the developer and the existing occupants of Quantum Park be held responsible for the cost of construction of traffic actuated signals at the intersections of Boulevard with Gateway and Congress. m r ~ [; ~ n Vi ./.r..)\,:-: I il'! I' 'AlJG , :; ;! ! i' ! : ~_. I I DEPARTMENT OJ: DE V[ I ;If"" Based on the above, I recommend that the City Commission include the following basic condition for NOPC #16 for traffic signals per my earlier memo dated July 31, 2006 to the City Commission: I was pleased to see that the Planning and Development Board took note of the traffic signal situation at Quantum Boulevard/Gateway and Quantum Boulevard/Congress. I recommend that if the City Commission is going to favorably consider the application for the additional 800 dwelling units on the Quantum parcels that MFT Development, Inc. be responsible for posting a letter of credit in the amount of $440, 000 for a five-year period in a form approved by the City. This translates into $220,000 for each signal. In the event that traffic warrants are not met in the five year period (tested annually), the letter of credit can be released. If the warrants are met, the traffic signals should be installed and paid by MFT Development, Inc. If they wish to assign this obligation to successors in interest, this can be accommodated if the transfer of the financial obligation is approved by the City Commission. I believe the City Commission should include the requirement for a letter of credit posted by MFT Development, Inc. as outlined above as a surety for the two traffic signals. Staff observed this In 2001, and the situation has not changed. Issue #2 -Inclusion of the Transit Oriented Development Housing In NOPC #16 The developer has requested 800 additional dwelling units to the Quantum area. The developer indicated at the last City Commission meeting that they would "allocate" or otherwise identify 400 units to the Tri-Rail parcel for a future Transit Oriented Oevelopment there. The petitioner, MFT Oevelopment, Inc. does not own property at the Tri-Rail station. They must negotiate the development with Tri-Rail and the RTA. What MFT does effectively control is the process by which amendments to the Quantum PIO would be handled. In the past, these have been in the form of NOPC's or notices of proposed changes. We are now up to #16. Because the legal notice for NOPC #16 did not include the Tri-Rail parcel there must be a subsequent request. The placement of 400 units potentially at the Tri-Rail site by the NOPC #16 allows MFT to be the developer of choice as they have the units accounted for by approval of the City. They can do so because the vested traffic counts for the development have been met. Unless Tri-Rail or the County grant's a traffic concurrency exception area for the Tri-Rail site, the vested traffic counts attributed to Quantum have value. At present, there is no official statement by Tri-Rail, Treasure Coast Regional Planning or the County as to whether they will be considering extending a traffic currency exemption area to transit oriented development (TOO) sites. If they do, the Quantum vested traffic counts won't be of value to them. However, the main issue is the process by which future NOPC's are processed. I believe that MFT Oevelopment Inc. effectively controls any future NOPC applications for the Tri-Rail parcel even though they don't own it. For the, City's part, any consideration for a TOO at this location should include a guarantee of a supply of affordable housing in a manner that preserves these units in the future and shields them from real estate speculation. So, the answer this question is that the TOO is officially not part of the NOPC #16. MFT, I believe, effectively controls the future process for another NOPC/ORI amendment specifically for the Tri-Rail site. The 400 non-Quantum new units proposed are available for the TOO but cannot be specifically assigned to the TOO until there is a valid petition to convert the Tri-Rai/ site to a TOO. Commission will need to condition approval of the NOpe to a maximum of 400 new units on the balance of Quantum and understand that the other 400 units are effectively not allocated at this time. The second set of 400 units is essentially unallocated units with nowhere to go unless a TOO is approved at the Tri-Rail site later. I believe Section 3 8 of the draft ordinance effectively handles this by the following language: "Of the 800 additional units approved pursuant to this Ordinance, 400 units shall be placed on Lots 17, 52, 58, 102 and 103.

The reason the item is on the agenda for August 1 st is the need to have the documents transmitted to the Florida Department of Community Affairs (DCA) by mid-August. Otherwise, our customary application review period would have been deployed. We have a situation where the P&D Board did not concur with a staff recommendation to deny the applicant's petition. In essence, staff felt the conversion of non-residential land to residential land an 800 additional dwelling units in the 553 acre Quantum Development was not appropriate. The developer has pointed out, without specifics, that their intent is to make a portion of these units "affordable." In my opinion, this needs to be specified as part of any City approval of any additional conversion of land to residential. This should include the number of units to be designated affordable and the price point of the units. Here is a summary breakdown of the land use changes proposed by NOPC 16. (see next page) Quantum DRI/NOPC #16 Land Use Acreage Compararison Current Proposed Change Addl Dwelling Land Use NOPC16 Residential Unitsl Acres Acres Acres Units Acre Commercial 13.53 13.53 0.00 Industrial 97.18 97.18 0.00 Governmental and Institutional 65.29 65.29 0.00 Office 12.96 12.96 0.00 Office and Industrial 68.97 64.04 -4.93 Office, Industrial and Commercial 13.55 13.55 0.00 Office, Industrial and Hotel 3.78 3.78 0.00 Office, Industrial and Industrial w/Retail S~ 10.85 3.05 -7.80 Mixed Use 94.86 113.44 18.58 800 43.06 Wetlands 6.00 6.00 0.00 Roads 37.38 32.64 -4.74 Sand Pine Preserve 40.00 40.00 0.00 Open Space 88.78 87.67 -1.11 Total 553.13 553.13 0.00 At this point, the proposal of a "Transit Oriented Development" for up to 500 residential units is in the planning stages. MFT Development Inc., the applicant in this petition has approached the RT A and Tri-Rail to see if there is interest in partnering on a development using the air rights over the Tri- Rail property. If there is progress on this proposal, it would take the form of another NOPC in the future. As I understand it, MFT Development has vested development rights for related to traffic concurrency, which would make them developer of choice should an agreement between MFT and Tri-Rail and the RT A be negotiated. MFT could then either develop the units or transfer that right to another developer. The main issue I see is the construction of a supply of affordable housing at this location. In concept, it is a great idea that I support, however this proposal has nothing to do with the current petition. I was pleased to see that the Planning and Development Board took note of the traffic signal situation at Quantum Boulevard/Gateway and Quantum Boulevard/Congress. I recommend that if the City Commission is going to favorably consider the application for the additional 800 dwelling units on the Quantum parcels that MFT Development, Inc. be responsible for posting a letter of credit in the amount of $440,000 for a five-year period in a form approved by the City. This translates into $220,000 for each signal. In the event that traffic warrants are not met in the five year period (tested annually), the letter of credit can be released. If the warrants are met, the traffic signals should be installed and paid by MFT Development, Inc. If they wish to assign this obligation to successors in interest, this can be accommodated if the transfer of the fmancial obligation is approved by the City Commission.

He is planning to provide the study at Congress and Quantum Boulevard by the end of this year. The study at Quantum Boulevard and Gateway is the topic of ongoing discussion as part of NOPC 16 as you will see below. The issue I have is that Quantum Ltd Partners is willing to study this but makes no commitment to act on the results of the study. It is their opinion that they are merely acting as the declarent and not the developer. I found it interesting that Eugene is going to have the Quantum Park Property Owners Association fund the traffic study at Congress and Quantum that the FOOT is requesting as part of the ORI modifications. What role does the POA have with ORI administration? I have advised Eugene that I am unable to meet with him until Wednesday afternoon. Jeff Jeffrey R. Livergood, P.E.

Gerlica, P.E. 772-971-9491 From: Livergood, Jeffrey [mailto:LivergoodJ@cLboynton-beach.fl.us] Sent: Friday, July 14, 20063:56 PM To: Eugene; Logan, Laurinda Cc: Breese, Ed; Rebecca Mulcahy; David Norris; Fior Bresolin; Eugene Gerlica PE; Dan Weisberg (E-mail); Cherof, James Subject: RE: Quantum NOPC 16 Conditions of Approval Eugene, Thank you for your suggested modification to our Condition of Approval relating to traffic. As I discussed at our meeting this morning, I am certainly open to any modification of this condition that is acceptable to you and meets our City goals. As I noted, I believe that it is entirely appropriate to evaluate any changes to access conditions onto Gateway Boulevard, a City public street, as part of NOPC 16. This NOPC contemplates the removal of Quantum Lakes Drive from the street network in the master development. Therefore, we must address modified traffic access conditions onto Gateway Boulevard from the perspective of capacity and safety. If the request to delete Quantum Lakes Drive, or any other platted roadway, from the master plan and substitute same with mixed use development is withdrawn, and conditions remain as currently platted, then our traffic concerns have no correlation to NOPC 16 and the referenced condition of approval would be deleted. I am willing to alter our Condition of Approval if you agree to provide a traffic study of the intersection of Gateway Boulevard and Quantum Boulevard. This study should consider the existing traffic volumes plus the potential traffic volumes that could be generated from all vacant parcels that are the subject of your current application plus you should take into consideration the revised traffic patterns from those parcels that are already improved. As part of this study, you will provide a signal warrant analysis for the intersection of Gateway Boulevard and Quantum Boulevard. As you are aware, the City has requested that the County conduct a warrant analysis at this intersection to determine whether or not a Letter of Credit (LOC) held by the City on behalf of DR Horton to ensure construction of a traffic signal at this location should be drawn upon or returned. You have the option of waiting for this analysis to be completed by the County or contracting for this work on your own, depending upon when you desire approval of NOPC 16. Should the County analysis find that a traffic signal is currently warranted at the intersection of Gateway Boulevard and Quantum Boulevard, then you would not be required by the City to further consider traffic signalization at this intersection as a condition of approval of NOPC 16. The City will cause the signal to be constructed using the surety posted by DR Horton. However, because your proposed deletion of Quantum Lakes Drive would place more demand on the eastbound to southbound right turn movement on Gateway Boulevard at Quantum Boulevard, I would ask that you evaluate the need for an eastbound right turn lane on Gateway Boulevard at Quantum Boulevard, assuming that the existing right turn lane will become a future third through lane. If this turn lane is warranted, then I would like for you to comment on how you would intend to comply with this requirement. Should the County traffic analysis determine that current conditions do not require the installation of a traffic signal at the intersection of Gateway Boulevard and Quantum Drive, then the City must return the LOC to DR Horton and the requirement for DR Horton to 7/17/2006 Page 3 of 4 construct the signal is removed. However, in this scenario, you must still conduct a separate traffic analysis and consider the added traffic on Quantum Boulevard that will be generated/relocated as a result of the elimination of Quantum Lakes Drive and development of remaining parcels. This data should then be used to determine if a signal is warranted. If so warranted, then I would appreciate your comments on how you intend to guarantee to the City that the signal will be constructed. Furthermore, you must also consider the impact of the eastbound to southbound turning movement as referenced in the paragraph above. As an alternative.... I am willing to NOT require the above referenced items as a Condition of Approval of NOPC 16 if you would consider the following: 1. All traffic studies and comments referenced above will be incorporated, in some fashion, as text into the Conditions of Approval of NOPC 16. 2. City approval of NOPC 16 will not be conditioned upon completion of these text items at this time. 3. You, as applicant for NOPC 16, acknowledge as a Condition of Approval that these text items shall constitute the minimum actions and responsibility on your part, or the part of a future applicant, necessary to proceed with of any roadway abandonment(s) for Quantum Lakes Drive and/or Quantum Boulevard that may occur in the future as a result of City approval of NOPC 16. Should you desire to proceed with this alternative, or some other variation of this concept, then I will draft a Condition of Approval that incorporates these suggestions for your review. On a separate note, the City Manager has requested that I ensure that you address the issues raised to you in a letter dated June 26, 2006 from the Florida Department of Transportation. This letter noted that you must submit to the State the traffic signal warrant studies for the above referenced intersection and for the intersection of Quantum Boulevard and Congress Avenue. This is a State requirement as part of the annual report for the Quantum Park ORI that you must file. It appears that you have not complied with this requirement in the previous two annual reports. Separate from this NOPC request, I would like to know how you intend to address the State's requests in the referenced letter, particularly for the intersection of Congress Avenue and Quantum Boulevard. In summary, I am more than willing to modify our condition of approval to something that may be less onerous to you. However, to do so, I need your thoughts on the suggestions I have raised. I would be pleased to meet again if you so desire. Jeff Jeffrey R. Livergood, P.E.

Council_ reviewed the "Notification of a Proposed Change to a ~ously Approved Developmem of Regional Impact (DRI)" for the Quantum Park DRl dated May 17, 2006. The proposed changes include: 1) revising the master site development plan; 2) increasing residential units from 1,105 to 1,905, 3) designation ofland uses in loti 17. 52- 58, and 103 to Mixed Use; 4) revisions of notes 3 and 4 in the Master Site Development Plan; and 5) elimination of parts of Quantum Lakes Drive and Quantum Boulevard. Council has reviewed the information provided by the applicant and has detmmiDed the proposed changes will not create additional regional impacts on regional resources 81'J.d facilities in the area. At the same time, the City should be mindful of the trend of conversion of its industrial/workplace land use base to residential use. Over the last several years workplace land uses in the Southwest Congress Avenue corridor aad Quantum. Park have been converted to residential, c-.bangblg the character of this area aod reducing potential sites for workplace in the City At some point in the near future, perhaps during the review of the City's comprehensive plan as part of the required EAR process I the City should evaluate and come to some conclusion about its overall workplace land use needs for the future. As indicated above~ the proposed change would increase the number of residential units allowed by 800 or 72 percent. By itself this change would constitute a substantial deviation under Section 380.06(19)(b)9. F10rida Statutes. This finding would cause the ~lopment to be subject to further DR! review -Brira,i.g C01l'l.""ttll.itits Togttbtr" to Est 1176 ..01 E..l 0".... 8oulc:v..d Suit," 30ft StUIl.t 'Plo.ldlL 34..4 Pb.n.

Florida Statutes. The Council and the Florida Depert:meDt of Tmnsportation ba:ve not identified any Dew or additional regional impacts resulting from the change and have no objections. If the City concludes the same, it could cert.Cnly make a :finding under this section of the statute tba1 would allow the proposed change to proceed without further DRI review On another matter, Council has been working with the City, the County, the developer end the SFRT A on creating a Transit Oriented Development (TOD) opportunity by establishing the appropriate mix and quantity of land uses on the Tri-Rail station site. Approximately 500 residential units and a mix of Donresidential uses would be required fOT a successful TOO on this site. As part of this proposed change. the City is encouraged to provide for the uses that are needed for the TOO, 01' receive some assurances from the developer that he will support and authorize the City and SFRTA to make the necessary changes to the development order at some point in the near future. The Florida Dcparlment of Transportation has also made comments that should be addressed as a condition of the City authorizing tbe proposed change (see attached letter dated June 26, 2006).

Quantum Park Development of RegIOnal Impact NotIce of Proposed Change No 16 City of Boynton Beach, Palm Beach County Dear Mr Rumpf' In accordance WIth the reqUIrements of SectIOn 380 06(19), Flonda Statutes, CouncIl has revIewed the "NotIficatIOn of a Proposed Change to a PrevIOusly Approved Development of RegIOnal Impact (DRI)" for the Quantum Park DRI dated May 17 2006 The proposed changes mclude 1) revlSlng the master sIte development plan, 2) mcreasmg resIdentlal umts from 1 105 to 1,905, 3) deSIgnatIOn of land uses m lots 17 52, 58, and 103 to Mixed Use, 4) reVlSlons of notes 3 and 4 m the Master SIte Development Plan, and 5) ehmmatIOn of parts of Quantum Lakes Dnve and Quantum Boulevard. CouncIl has revIewed the mformatIOn provIded by the apphcant and has determmed the proposed changes WIll not create addItlonal regIOnal Impacts on regIOnal resources and facIhtIes m the area. At the same tlme, the CIty should be mmdful of the trend of converSIOn of ItS mdustnal/workplace land use base to resIdentlal use Over the last several years workplace land uses m the Southwest Congress Avenue comdor and Quantum Park have been converted to reSIdentIal, changmg the character of thIS area and reducmg potentIal SItes for workplace m the CIty At some pomt III the near future, perhaps dunng the reVIew of the CIty'S comprehensIve plan as part of the reqUIred EAR process, the CIty should evaluate and come to some conclUSIOn about its overall workplace land use needs for the future. As mdIcated above, the proposed change would mcrease the number of reSIdential umts allowed by 800 or 72 percent. By Itself thIS change would constItute a substantIal deViatIOn under SectIOn 380 06(19)(b)9, Flonda Statutes.

Pursuant to SectIOn 38006 (19)(b)(9), Flonda Statutes, an mcrease m the number of dwellmg umts by 5% or 50 dwellmg umts, whIchever IS greater, constItutes a substantlal deViatIOn, and shall cause the development to be subject to further development of regIOnal Impact reVIew without the neceSSIty for a findmg of a substantlal deVIatIOn by the local government. Pursuant to the relevant statutory provlSlons, the apphcant must proceed WIth further development of regIOnal Impact reVIew due to the fact that the addItIOn of the 800 dwellmg umts to the ongmally approved 1,105 dwellmg umts IS a substantlal devIatlon as proVIded m SectIOn 38006(19)(b)(9), Flonda Statutes. Our office would be wIllmg to reVIew any addItlonal mformatIOn that the apphcant deSIres to submIt m order to demonstrate that thIS proposed mcrease m resIdentlal dwelhng umts IS not a substantlal deVIatIOn. Based upon the mformatIOn submItted so far, however, the addItIonal dwellmg umts does result m a substantIal deVIatIOn and does reqUIre addItlonal development of regIOnal Impact reVIew without the CIty CommISSIon makmg such a findmg.
