(561) 737-7733 July 25, 2002 Resident Name Address City, State Zip Re: Bethesda Hospital Proposed Physician Parking Expansion Our File No.: 352.18 Dear On behalf of the administration and staff at Bethesda Hospital, I am inviting you to attend a presentation and workshop regarding the proposed Physician Parking Expansion at Bethesda Hospital. As I indicated at the recent Planning and Development Board meeting, the Hospital had previously held two (2) meetings, including the most affected property owners on Southeast 4th Street. As the attendance at the Planning and Development Board indicated, interest in this project extends well beyond the immediate properties on Southeast 4th Street. For those residents in attendance at the Planning and Development Board meeting, it was their first opportunity to hear a full presentation in a less than ideal setting, For that reason, I have been authorized to postpone the August 6, 2002 public hearing at the City Commission to August 20, 2002 in order to hold another presentation at the Hospital. At that meeting, we will present the plans which were shown to the Planning and Development Board the other night. Additionally, we will take input from the residents as to what, if any, changes could be made to make this project more acceptable to the neighborhood, At the Planning and Development Board, a suggestion was made that the land area along Southeast 4th Street be developed as a pedestrian linear park with amenities such as lighting, seating and fountains, We will be prepared at the upcoming meeting to discuss some of these design alternatives. The meeting will be held at the Clayton Conference Center beginning at 6:30 PM on August 8, 2002. The best way to get to the auditorium is by entering the hospital at the Ambulatory Surgery Center located along Seacrest Boulevard.

Community Redevelopment May 20, 2002 Mr. Chris Kerr Kilday & Associates, Inc. 1551 Forum Place, Suite 100A West Palm Beach, FL 33401 Re: Bethesda Memorial Hospital Land Use Amendment and Rezoning Applications Dear Chris; Staff has conducted a preliminary review of your application submittals on behalf of Bethesda Memorial Hospital. There are several issues relating to the applications: . Even though a single applicant is making the applications, there are two separate and distinct properties, Area "A" and Area "B". There should be two separate applications submitted, . Area "A" is 1.43 acres and can be processed as a small-scale land use amendment; however, Area "B" is 10.37 acres and must be processed as a large-scale amendment. The application deadline for the next large-scale amendment cycle is October I, 2002, If your client wants the two amendment requests to be processed simultaneously, you should resubmit the applications closer to the October I date, If the client wishes the small-scale amendment request to go forward at this time, the application should be resubmitted for that property only. . Staff continues to oppose the subject request for Area, "A", due to its impact on the adjacent neighborhood, and continues to recommend that alternatives be considered to address current parking needs, . Finally, staff understands the importance of Bethesda Memorial Hospital as an asset to both the City of Boynton Beach and Palm Beach County and further understands that the hospital's facilities must be expanded from time to time. For that reason, staff has requested that the hospital share its long-range development plans with the City so that we may strive together to achieve mutual objectives in an orderly manner. We again repeat that request.
