CORRESPONDENCE /' PLANNING AND ZONING MEMORANDUM TO: David N. To1ces, Assistant City Attorney Ed Breese, Principal Planner ~ FROM: DATE: December 27,2005 SUBJECT: A.A.M. Builders Per your request, I have reviewed the letter from David W. Schmidt regarding the City's interpretation on the above-mentioned variance application. I have also reviewed our files regarding the subject, and submit the following: 1. There does not appear to be a permit on file for the existing location of the diesel fuel tank (outside of the building, along the RR tracks). 2. On October 19, 2004, A.A.M Industries, Inc. applied for a Minor Site Plan Modification for two (2) gas tank enclosures, including a survey and photographs. These documents indicate the existence of a diesel fuel tank and enclosure inside a fenced area along the RR tracks. They also depict a proposed location next to the diesel fuel tank for a gas fuel tank and enclosure. 3. On October 28,2004, staff addressed a letter to A.A.M. Industries, Inc. indicating that the Minor Modification could not be approved due to the fact that the proposed improvements, according to their survey, were not on their property and did not meet setbacks. 4. On June 13, 2005, A.A.M. Industries submitted a Variance Application to construct a fuel tank near their front property line along SE 5th Avenue. In the justification statement, the applicant indicates that the new fuel tank (approximately twice the size of the existing diesel fuel tank) will hold both gas and diesel fuel. 5. During staffs review, it was determined that A.A.M. Builders is an industrial use in a residential zoning district. On August 19, 2005, in a conversation with the Legal Department, it was determined that the request from the applicant was an expansion of a nonconforming use per Code Section l1.1.B. 2. & 3., which state: 2. No such nonconforming use shall be moved in whole or in part to any other portion of the lot or parcel occupied by such use on the effective date of the adoption or amendment to these regulations, nor shall such nonconforming use be moved to any other parcel or located in any district within which said use is not permitted. 3. No additional structures or buildings shall be erected in connection with such nonconforming use of land. As indicated in Mr. Schmidt's letter of December 12, 2005 to your attention, a gas fuel tank was approved inside the building. No record of any permits for a diesel fuel tank located outside the building on RR property can be found. As we previously discussed, it would appear that the relocation and expansion of the fuel tank would trigger the nonconforming language discussed above. Should you require anything further, please do not hesitate to ask.

Builders, Inc My File No. 7309 Dear David: Thank you agreeing to take another look at this variance application. -As we discussed, it appears that a gas tank was approved in 1993 to be located in the building. However, it was eventually located outside, and my client later discovered that it was located in the FEe right-of-way and not on his property. He now wishes to re-Iocate the tank. He needs a variance because he cannot meet the distance requirement from the front of the building. Rick Lee in the building department has reviewed the location with the Fire Marshall and they are okay with it. . Enclosed are copies of some documents from when my client initially sought approval to move into the building. Should you require anything further, please contact me.

Schmidt 100 NE Fifth Avenue, Suite A-I Delray Beach, Florida 33483 Re: A.A.M. Industries Dear Mr. Schmidt: As a follow-up to our previous phone conversation, please be advised that the City of Boynton Beach Planning & Zoning Division is returning your application for variance on behalf of A.A.M. Industries. Again, as noted in our previous discussion, the City Attorney's office has determined the project contemplated in your application to be an expansion of a legal non-conforming use, therefore not eligible for a variance. Do not hesitate to contact me with any questions or if there is anything I can do to assist you. Sincerely, Ed Breese Principal Planner CC: Mike Rumpf, P&Z Director David To1ces, Assistant City Attorney Scott Blasie, Code Compliance Administrator
