Industrial (I) land use, zoned Light Industrial (LI); and
West: Right-of-way for Congress Avenue, then farther west is developed residential
property (Hunter's Run), with a Low Density Residential (lDR) land use, zoned
Planned Unit Development (PUD).
BACKGROUND
Proposal:
In April of 2002, Mr. Kieran Kilday of Kilday and Associates submitted a request to
rezone (LUAR 02-002) the property from Industrial (I) to Planned Unit
Development (PUD) in order to construct 340 apartment units. The City
Commission approved Mr. Kilday's request with a density of 10.5 dwelling units per
acre. On January 21, 2003, the City Commission approved Ordinance 02-060,
which was the second reading of the corresponding land use / rezoning application.
In September of 2002, Mr. Jamie Gentile, then representing Kilday and Associates,
submitted a concurrent request for new site plan (NWSP 02-017) approval for the
340 apartment units. The City Commission approved Mr. Gentile's request on
December 3,2002. However, Mr. Gentile, now with Calvin, Giordano & Associates,
has requested a major site plan modification (MSPM 03-013) in order to construct
300 fee-simple townhouse units at a density of 9.32 dwelling units for acre. This
would represent a reduction in the number of dwelling units. Townhouses are
permitted uses in the PUD zoning district. The project would be a gated
community. The applicant has submitted no project phasing. Site plan approval is
valid for one (1) year after a development order has been issued.
It should be noted that Mr. Kieran Kilday is simultaneously requesting a one (1)
year time extension for the site plan (NWSP 02-017) that was approved in
December of 2002 (see staff report for SPTE 03-006).
Site Characteristic: The subject property is comprised of two (2) vacant lots totaling 32.16 acres. The
larger irregularly-shaped parcel contains a mixture of vegetation. The existing
trees and vegetation consists generally consists of exotic, invasive, non-native
species. The primary tree species are Florida Holly, Melaleuca, and Australina Pine.
There is a portion of the property, approximately 6.5 acres, which has been
determined by the South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD) to be a
conservation easement within the site. This area also contains exotic, invasive,
non-native trees / vegetation. Although not part of the City's permitting processes,
it is likely that it would be reconstructed into a native wetland species ecosystem.
There are several existing native Cabbage Palm trees and two small native Live Oak
trees. These trees would be relocated to the east or south perimeter of the site. A
clearing / grubbing permit would be required from the Building Division to clear and
remove these exotic plants and to relocate the Cabbage palm and Live Oak trees.
There are several Pond Apple trees within the existing canal right-of-way along the
south perimeter of the site. These trees are under jurisdiction of the LWDD. The
Staff Report - Westbrooke at Boynton (MSPM 03-013))

entire smaller lot has been dedicated as a 110-foot wide FP&L easement. Also, it is
physically separated from the main parcel by an 80-foot wide right-of-way for the
lWDD. Since this parcel would remain vacant and would not and could not be
developed for townhouses, staff would like to continue discussing with the property
owner, the possibility of including this parcel into the City of Boynton Beach's
Greenways and Bikeways Plan (see Exhibit "C" - Conditions of Approval). In any
event, the survey shows a small indent into the smaller parcel. This indent is
private property, not owned by the applicant, and is currently the site of an existing
billboard. The applicant has no control over this small property and the billboard
would not be removed as a result of this development. It is unclear how the
billboard site is accessed.
ANALYSIS
Concurrency:
Traffic: A traffic statement for this project was submitted and sent to the Palm Beach
County Traffic Division for their review and approval. The Palm Beach County
Traffic Division determined that the project meets the Traffic Performance
Standards of Palm Beach County for 315 multi-family residential apartments. The
Division also had the following comment: "It is suggested that the City implement
proper measures, through signing and striping, to enhance safety at the project
access driveway, with emphasis on the southbound Congress Avenue traffic,
turning left onto the site. No building permits are to be issued by the town, after
the build-out date speCified above. The County traffic concurrency approval is
subject to the Project Aggregation Rules set forth in the Traffic Performance
Standards Ordinance". The Engineering Division has reviewed the plan and
determined that the County's suggestion can be accomplished during the time of
permitting (see Exhibit "C" - Conditions of Approval).
Drainage: Conceptual drainage information was provided for the City's review. The City's
concurrency ordinance requires drainage certification at time of site plan approval.
The Engineering Division is recommending that the review of specific drainage
solutions be deferred until time of permit review, when more complete engineering
documents are required. The on-site drainage system shall be accomplished via a
combination of green swales, exfiltration trenches, and dry retention. The drainage
design shall conform to the requirements of the City of Boynton Beach and the
Lake Worth Drainage District (LWDD).
School: The School District of Palm Beach County approved the original apartment project
for school concurrency when the property was rezoned from Industrial to PUD.
However, the School District of Palm Beach County is currently reviewing the
project for school concurrency purposes for the townhouse project. As of today's
date, no equivalency determination has been received from the District. Therefore,
no building permits shall be issued unit the District approves the project (see
Exhibit "C" - Conditions of Approval).
Driveways: The master plan (sheet G100) shows that the development's main driveway is
proposed on Congress Avenue. This point of access would allow for both vehicular
Staff Report - Westbrooke at Boynton (MSPM 03-013))
Memorandum No PZ 04-041)
Page 4
and pedestrian ingress I egress. It would align with a signalized median opening
on Congress Avenue and would allow for both right and left turns from the site.
This would be the main point of vehicular access to the site. The site plan (sheet
G401) shows that both the ingress and egress lanes would be 24 feet in width. It
would be separated by a 15 foot wide landscaped median. An unmanned,
electronically operated, security gate would restrict entrance to the development.
The gate would be located almost due west of the clubhouse, approximately 180
feet east of the property line along Congress Avenue. The Engineering Division
reviewed its location in conjunction with the escape cut in the median and
determined that both would provide for safe vehicular queuing distances from the
arterial roadway. When the apartment project (NWSP 02-017) was first approved,
the plans did not provide for a secondary means of access to the development.
Staff strongly recommend the construction of an emergency entrance I exit at the
southwest corner of the property. The developer heeded staff's recommendation
with this major site plan modification and a subordinate driveway opening is now
proposed at the southwest corner of the property. The enlarged site plan (sheet
G403) shows that this subordinate entrance would be 18 feet in width and set aside
for fire I emergency vehicle access only. Its surface would be made of turf block
paver system. Garbage trucks and other service vehicles would not use this
entrance. It would remain as a fenced portion of the property but equipped with a
Knox Box so that in case of emergency, vehicles could enter or exit the site without
complication (see Exhibit "C" - Conditions of Approval).
Parking Facility: Two and three bedroom townhouse units would require two (2) parking spaces for
each unit. The recreation area would require five (5) parking spaces. Based on the
above-referenced methodologies, 605 parking spaces would be required for the
proposed project. The site data table and details (sheet G500) shows that 658
parking spaces or an excess of 53 spaces would be provided. All parking spaces
would be provided via either parallel or gO-degree parking stalls. The detail of the
parking spaces (as shown on sheet G502) indicates that the gO-degree parking
stalls would be dimensioned nine (g) feet - six (6) inches in width by 18 feet - six
(6) inches in length. The gO-degree handicap space would be 12 feet in width with
five (5) feet of striping by 18 feet - six (6) inches in length. The dimensions of the
proposed parallel parking spaces would be nine (g) feet - six (6) inches in width by
25 feet in length. No detail of the typical outdoor freestanding lighting structure
was provided, however, a note on the master plan (sheet Gl00) indicates that they
would be made of 18-foot tall concrete poles (see Exhibit "C" - Conditions of
Approval).
Landscaping: The proposed pervious area of the parcel equals 11.86 acres or 36.8% of the total
site. The overall landscaping data table (sheet L501) indicates the plan would
provide a total of 783 shade trees, 1,175 palm trees, and over 20,000 shrub and
groundcover plants. The tabulations show that 467 or 60% of the shade trees and
643 or 55% of the palm trees are native. Over 7,500 or 54% of the shrubs would
be native. All would comply with the City's 50% native plants requirement.
When describing the project's proposed landscape buffers, it should be noted that
staff is referring to the pervious area outside the limits of the fee-simple lot. The
Staff Report - Westbrooke at Boynton (MSPM 03-013))
Memorandum No PZ 04-041 )
Page 5
width of the west (front) landscape buffer along Congress Avenue varies but would
be at minimum, 10 feet in width. This lO-foot width landscape buffer would only
occur in areas where dumpster enclosures are proposed. It should be emphasized
that the vast majority of the western landscape buffer (along Congress Avenue)
would be 30 feet in width as shown on sheet G400. This buffer would contain a
variety of trees and shrubs. They would include the following: Floriday Royal palm,
Cabbage palm, Dahoon Holly, Queen Crape Myrtle, Wax Privet, Purple Glory,
Thyrallis, Redtip Cocoplum, and Blue Daze. The Cross-Section Detail of the
proposed earthen berm on sheet L 400 illustrates what this buffer would look like.
The detail shows that a three (3) to five (5) foot high earthen berm in conjunction
with the proposed landscape material and perimeter wall would buffer the Congress
Avenue roadway from the townhouses to the east.
The enlarged landscape plan (sheet L 403) shows that the south (side) landscape
buffer would be nearly 30 feet wide, much to the benefit of the residents. The
width of the landscape buffer is measured from the south property line to the edge
of the fee-simple lot. The plans propose a variety of trees and shrubs within this
buffer, outside the fee-simple lot. The proposed plants include but are not limited
to the following: Wax Privet, Golden Shower, Dahoon Holly, and a row of Walter's
Viburnum hedge.
As previously mentioned, much of the northern portion of the subject property
would be dedicated as conservation lands. However, a substantial portion of
another north (side) property line (N89058'02'W - 891.77 feet) was previously
approved in the apartment project (NWSP 02-017) with a 15-foot wide landscape
buffer. This north (side) property line directly abuts industrial property. This
townhouse project proposes to reduce the width of this landscape buffer by 10 feet.
As currently proposed, the buffer would only be five (5) feet in width (outside the
fee-simple property line). The master plan (sheet Ll00) shows that a five (5) foot
high chain link fence with landscaping (Redtip Cocoplum and Paurotis palm trees) is
proposed within this buffer. This buffer is important because it separates the
residential from the industrial property. Therefore, in order to maintain consistency
with the previous apartment project (NWSP 02-017) and to minimize substantial
changes to this project, staff recommends reducing the allowable depth of the
outdoor patios to five (5) feet (for those patios proposed in the rear yards of the
three (3) buildings that abut this landscape buffer). This recommendation would in
effect, preserve the is-foot wide landscape strip between the edge of the patios
and the northern extent of the aforementioned property line (N89058'02'W - 891.77
feet). As a consequence however, these units would only be allowed to have a five
(5) foot wide patio instead of a 10-foot wide patio like the others. Also, only in this
instance would the landscape buffer occur both inside and outside the fee-simple
area (see Exhibit "C" - Conditions of Approval).
The east (rear) landscape buffer (sheet l407) is nearly 35 feet wide. Like the other
buffers, it would contain a variety of plant material including but not limited to the
following: Cabbage palm, Dahoon Holly, Royal Poinciana, Pink Trumpet, and
Walter's Viburnum hedges. The foundation landscaping details (sheets L 408
through l412) illustrate that landscape material would be provided for along the
Staff Report - Westbrooke at Boynton (MSPM 03-013))
Memorandum No PZ 04-041 )
Page 6
front and sides of each building. The landscape material include Glossy Privet,
Alexander palm, Carpentaria palm, Montgomery palm, Travelers palm, Xanadu
philodendron, Awabuki Viburnum, Schefflera, Nora Grant Ixora, lirope, and Macho
Fern.
Buildings and Site: The proposed buildings and site design would generally meet code requirements
when staff comments are incorporated into the permit drawings. According to the
enlarged site plan (sheet G400), a six (6) foot high precast concrete wall would be
erected along the west property line. The Precast Wall detail (sheet G500), shows
that the wall would be six (6) feet in height with decorative caps placed on top of
each supporting column. The wall would have a textured concrete finish and
painted the same color to match the buildings (Sherwin Williams #2340 - Buff). A
five (5) foot high green chain link fence with landscaping is proposed along the
other property lines.
The 300 dwelling units are proposed within 30 separate buildings. The building
sizes range from 7 units to 14 units. The project would contain two (2) "seven-
unit" buildings, seven (7) "eight-unit" buildings, four (4) "nine-unit" buildings,
eleven (11) "ten-unit" buildings, and six (6) "fourteen-unit" buildings. The
proposed density is 9.32 units per acre, which would comply with the maximum
allowed density of 10.8 dwelling units per acre of the High Density Residential
(HDR) future land use designation. All buildings combined would account for
23.85% lot coverage and are proposed as two (2) story structures. The buildings
would be 27 feet - seven (7) inches in height. The units would have either two (2)
or three (3) bedrooms.
The master site plan (sheet GlOO) shows that 10 dumpster enclosures are
proposed. All dumpster enclosures are located and angled in such a way as to
facilitate the efficient removal of trash. The Fire Department and the Engineering
Division of Public Works reviewed the entire site and determined the vehicular
circulation and location of fire hydrants would be adequate. One (1) mail kiosk is
proposed just west of the recreation facility at the project entrance. This mail
kiosk would serve the entire community. Staff met with personnel from the United
States Postal Service and determined that two (2) mail kiosk locations would be
acceptable. Therefore, staff recommends that another mailbox location be
established on the rectified site plan at the time of permitting (see Exhibit "c" -
Conditions of Approval).
Design:
The development in the surrounding area does not have a common architectural
character. There are two (2) residential developments in the immediate area of the
subject property. Hunter's Run to the west has a mixture of housing styles but
they are predominately concrete block construction with a variety of roof materials
and color accent features. The single-family homes at Isles of Hunter's Run,
located to the northwest have a neo-Mediterranean design. likewise, the proposed
buildings in the subject property would have the same Spanish Mediterranean
flavor. Some of the project's predominant architectural features include S-tile roof,
stucco facades, and metal balcony railings. The selected paint color palette for
these townhouses would differ slightly from the apartment complex approved in
Staff Report - Westbrooke at Boynton (MSPM 03-013))
Memorandum No PZ 04-041 )
Page 7
2002. Then, the apartment buildings would have been predominately light yellow
with pastel accent color tones of gold, peach, and apricot. Now, the applicant is
proposing three (3) color themes, primarily of earth tones. Scheme #1 would be
dark green (SW #6158 - Sawdust) and gray (SW #6156 - Ramie). Scheme #2
would consist of dark green (SW #6132 - Relic Bronze) and dark yellow (SW
#6129 - Restrained Gold). Scheme #3 would consist of terracotta (SW #6349 -
Pennywise) and mustard (SW #6116 - Tatami Tan).
Signage:
The elevations show that no building wall signs are proposed. An "entry wall" sign
is proposed on each side of the project's main entrance at Congress Avenue.
According to the sign elevation (sheet G500), the sign letters would read "Congress
Boynton Beach". The sign would be nearly seven (7) square feet in area, which
would comply with Chapter 21, Article IV, Section l.D of the land Development
Regulations. The structure would be setback 10 feet from the west property line.
RECOMMENDATION:
The Technical Review Committee (TRC) has reviewed this request for major site plan modification
approval. Staff recommends approval, contingent upon successfully satisfying all comments indicated in
Exhibit "C" - Conditions of Approval. Any additional conditions recommended by the Board or City
Commission shall be documented accordingly in the Conditions of Approval.

52. The project's required perimeter setbacks are as follows: Front - 40 feet;
Rear - 40 feet rear; and Side - 20 feet. On the site plan data table (sheet
0500), indicate the required and proposed building setbacks to ensure
compliance with this requirement (Chapter 2.5, Section 9.B.).
53. The project must obtain approval from the School District of Palm Beach
County regarding school concurrency prior to the issuance of a building
oennit.
54. The elevations must indicate the paint manufacturer's name and color code
(Chapter 4, Section 7.0.). On the elevation plans, include and label all major
exterior finishes. Staff recommends using a color schedule to indicate the
proposed building colors. Staff also recommends matching the project's
building color! s) to the ones that are shown on the colored renderinl!.
55. On the enlarged landscape plans, ensure that the plant quantities match
between the tabular data and the graphic illustration. Also, ensure that
cumulatively, the plant quantities on all enlarged landscaped plans equal the
overalllandscaoe plan. This can be accomplished at the time of pennitting.
56. On the plant list of the enlarged landscape plan for the 7-unit building (sheet

60. Any proposed walls, fences, enclosures and similar incidental site structures
shall resemble, with respect to color and materials, the design of the principal
buildings and shall be integrated with other site elements (Chapter 9, Section
10.E.3.).
61. Above ground mechanical equipment such as exterior meters, utility boxes
and transformers shall be visually screened (Chapter 9, Section IO.CA.).
Equipment placed on the walls of the building shall be painted to match the

time of permitting, the detail of the typical light pole should resemble this
note. If not, then submit a new detail and revise the note on sheet G I 00 to
match the materials and dimensions indicated on the detail.
64. According to the Palm Beach County Traffic Division, it is suggested that the
City implement proper measures, through signing and striping, to enhance
safety at the project access driveway, with emphasis on the southbound
Congress Avenue traffic, turning left onto the site. No building permits are to
be issued by the town, after the build-out date specified above (which is
2006). The County traffic concurrency approval is subject to the Project
Aggregation Rules set forth in the Traffic Performance Standards Ordinance".
The Engineering Division has reviewed the plan and determined that the
County's suggestion can be accomnlished during the time of permitting.
65. In order to maintain consistency with the previous apartment project (NWSP
02-017) and to minimize substantial changes to this project, staff recommends
reducing the allowable depth of the outdoor patios to five (5) feet (for those
patios proposed in the rear yards of the three (3) buildings that abut the north-
side landscane buffer alonl! nronertv line N89058'02"W).
66. Staff understands that the smaller lot (of the two parcels) of the subject
property cannot be developed with townhouses. Therefore, staff would like
to continue discussing with the property owner, the possibility of including
the vacant lot into the City of Boynton Beach's future Greenways and
Bikewavs Plan.
67. Staff has met with the United States Post Office personnel and determined
that the project would be eligible for two (2) mail kiosk locations. Staff
recommends incorporating two (2) mailbox locations into the design of the
project at the time of permitting when a rectified site plan is required, The
locations of the kiosks would be determined at that time,

Laurinda,
The applicant, Jamie Gentile, submitted a revised set of plans last week for the Westbrooke project on South
Congress Avenue, You had a condition of approval regarding off-site improvements. Do you need to see the revised
plans and reject the COA or are we going to forward this project to the Board with your COA? The comment was the
following:
Show all proposed off-site improvements including:
. Provide additional signal heads and modify the existing signals as necessary for traffic utilizing the
proposed development entrance onto Congress A venue. Construction of the traffic signal will be
required prior to full build-out of the project;
. Provide complete details for construction for a southbound left-turn lane,

the property is bordered on the south and east by Lake Worth Drainage
District Canals, it would seem that opportunities exist for the creation of ;v
Greenways and Bikeways by combining Landscape and buffering areas on

PARKS AND RECREATION
Comments:
75. Recreation and Parks Facilities Imoact Fee
The plans indicate 384 Single Family Attached Homes. Using the formula
outlined in the Land Development Regulations, Chapter I, Article 5, the Impact
Fee is calculated as follows:
384 SF attached units x $771 ea, ~ $296.064
Res
76,
ields $231,300.
Comments by the original developers of this property at the time of re-zone
indicated a willingness to provide additional greenspacce within the
development. Limited greenspace, at best. seems to appear in this plan. Since the
property is bordered on the south and east by Lake Worth Drainage District
Canals, it would seem that opportunities exist for the creation of Greenways and
Bikeways by combining Landscape and buffering areas on development property
with Drainage District R.O.W. These opportunities should be explored in a
manner that would allow for linkages with other properties to Caloosa Park and
other planned Greenway/Bikeways.
Response: Request has been noted. Developer will explore the connection
opportunities to Caloosa Park if permitted by LWDD & FPL.
77. Other Private Recreation
It appears that this project will be marketed, in part, to young families. Private
recreation facilities appear to be limited to a small recreation building, swimming
poll. and tot lot. Since back yard space is extremely small additional facilities
should be considered. to include open playfield areas spread out within the
development to provide for outdoor play
Response: Recreation area is consistent with previous development plan. It
should be noted that previous development plan did not include any back yard
s ace.
78. Existing Trees Management Plan-17 Live Oaks Sheets L401-L403
The Landscape Architect should show on these sheets the individual existing
Live Oak trees that will be preserved in place or the relocated location elsewhere
on the Site.

UTILITIES
33. All utility easements shall be shown on the Site plan and Landscape plans (as well as the Water and
Sewer Plans) 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 utilities the authority to remove any trees that interfere with utility services, either in utility
easements or public rights-of-way.
34. Provide an overall (single sheet) utility plan sheet at a scale of 1 in. = 50 ft. (like Sheet G1 00) to allow
review of the overall project utility system.
35. Palm Beach County Health Department permits will be required for the water and sewer systems
serving this project (CODE, Section 26-12).
36. 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)).
37. 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.
38. 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).
39. 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.
40. A building permit for this project shall not be issued until this Department has approved the plans for
the water and/or sewer improvements required to service this project, in accordance with the CODE,
Section 26-15.
41. The LDR, Chapter 3, Article IV, Section 3.0 requires Master Plans to show all utilities on or adjacent
to the tract. The plan must therefore show the point of service for water and sewer, and the
proposed off-site utilities construction needed in order to service this project. This includes utilities
within the right-of-way of Congress Avenue and the force main connection from the lift station site
(not identified on sheet C-201).
42. The LDR, Chapter 3, Article IV, Section 3.P requires a statement be included that (all other) utilities
are available and will be provided by the appropriate agencies. This statement is lacking on the
submitted plans.

Subject: Westbrook at Boynton
The Recreation and Parks Department has reviewed the New Site Plan for Westbrook @Boynton Beach. The
following cDmments are submitted:
Recreation_and Parks Facilities Impact Fee
The plans indicate 384 Single Family Attached Homes, Using the formuia outlined in the Land Development
Regulations, Chapter 1, Article 5, the Impact Fee is calculated as follows.
384 SF attached units x $771 ea. = $296,064
Fee is due at the time of the first applicable building permit
Greenways/Bik<lw?y
Comments by the original developers of this property at the time of re-zone indicated a willingness to provide
additionai greenspace within the development Limited greenspace, at best. seems to appear in this plan. Since
the property is bordered on the south and east by Lake Worth Drainage District Canals, it would seem that
opportunities exist for the creation of Greenways and Bikeways by combining Landscape and buffering areas on
development property with Drainage District R.O,W. These opportunities should be explored in a manner that
would allow for linkages with other properties to Caloosa Park and other planned Greenway/Bikeways.
O!h<lL.E'rivate Recceation
It appears that this project will be marketed, in part, to young families, Private recreation facilities appear to be
limited to a small recreation building, swimming pool, and tot lot Since back yard space is extremely small
additional facilities should be considered, to include open playfield areas spread out within the development to
provide for outdoor play.
