PROPERTY OWNER NOTIFICATION
Owners of properties within 400 feet of the subject conditional use were mailed a notice of this
request and its respective hearing dates. The applicant certifies that they posted signage and mailed
notices in accordance with Ordinance No. 04-007.
Site Characteristic: The Boynton Beach Mall is comprised of multiple leased parcels for a total of 116.3
acres. The Macy's leased parcel is 11.64 acres. The survey shows that the site is
currently developed with the Macy's store, its parking area, drive aisles, and
landscaping. The underground utilities would either remain in place or be re-
routed throughout the site. The site contains 75 shade trees and 84 palm trees
and most would be removed as a result of the redevelopment. The highest ground
elevation (16.27 feet) occurs where the Macy's store was built.
BACKGROUND
Proposal:
The Boynton Beach Mall was recently approved for an amendment (DRIA 05-002 /
MPMD 05-007) to the Development of Regional Impact (DRI) for the conversion of
169,510 leasable square feet of retail space to accommodate a 79,500 square foot
movie theatre. Essentially, the existing 169,510 square foot Macy's department
store would be demolished with 17,528 square feet of new retail space being
constructed at the former Macy's mall entrance, and a 79,500 square foot multi-
screen movie theatre constructed adjacent to the new retail space. The applicant
submitted a request for major site plan modification (MSPM 05-001) and height
exception (HTEX 05-003). All proposed uses are permitted in the C-3 zoning
district.
ANALYSIS
Concurrency:
Traffic:
An updated traffic study was sent to the Palm Beach County Traffic Division for
concurrency review in order to ensure an adequate level of service. A cursory
Staff Report - Muvico at Boynton Beach Mall (MSPM 05-001)
Memorandum No PZ 05-041
Page 3
review of the traffic study was conducted by staff during the review of the recently
approved Master Plan Modification (MPMD 05-007). Based on that review, no
additional regional impacts were evident. The traffic consultant concluded that the
simultaneous increases and decreases in allowable intensities associated with the
NOPC #5, resulted in reductions in the number of A.M. Peak Hour trips by 59 and
P.M. Peak Hour trips by 31. However, the proposed daily trips were projected to
increase from the vested 34,968 to 36,005 trips daily, an increase of 1,037 total
trips. With the information presented and available at this time, the proposed
reduction in the number of trips associated with the mall during the times of
highest traffic volume (morning and evening rush hours) resulted in a reduced
impact associated with the amendment to the DR!. The increase in the average
daily trips associated with the Mall (1,037 trips) produces less than a three (3%)
percent increase over a 24-hour period. Additionally, based upon the most recent
traffic counts (2003) in the vicinity of the Mall on Old Boynton Road (22,301) and
Congress Avenue (45,068), the additional 1,037 trips represent increases of 0.5%
and 0.2% respectively. The Palm Beach County Traffic Division determined that
the project meets the Traffic Performance Standards (TPS) of Palm Beach County.
Utilities: The demand for potable water for the Muvico project would be offset by the
demolition of the existing Macy's building and therefore, meets the level of service
anticipated for this type of development. Sufficient sanitary sewer and wastewater
capacity is currently available to serve this project, subject to the applicant making
a firm reservation of capacity, following approval of the site plan.
Fire I Police: Fire staff reviewed the site plan and determined that current staffing levels would
be sufficient to meet the expected demand for services. However, it should be
noted that the influx of new development would eventually begin to have an impact
on fire services, thereby ultimately increasing the demand for additional personnel
and equipment to balance the increase in population and non-residential uses in
the city. Police staff estimates that the movie theatre would increase the number
of police calls to the mall by 5 percent. These police calls would most likely deal
with juvenile related problems. Therefore, staff recommends that the Muvico
provide private security officers to assist with any future problems that may arise
from large gatherings of juveniles (see Exhibit "C" - Conditions of Approval).
Drainage: Conceptual drainage information was provided for the City's review. The
Engineering Division has found the conceptual information to be adequate and is
recommending that the review of specific drainage solutions be deferred until time
of permit review. All South Florida Water Management District permits and other
drainage related permits must be submitted at time of building permit (see Exhibit
"C" - Conditions of Approval).
School: School concurrency is not required for non-residential uses. The proposed change
has no impact on school concurrency.
Driveways: The overall site plan (sheet C-3) shows the movie theatre building and the
proposed layout of the drive aisles and parking areas. As previously mentioned, the
subject property is one of many parcels of the Boynton Beach Mall property. The
Staff Report - Muvico at Boynton Beach Mall (MSPM 05-001)
Memorandum No PZ 05-041
Page 4
Boynton Beach Mall has a main perimeter road that circles the entire property. This
perimeter road would run along the rear fa<;ade of the movie theatre. The Muvico's
leased parcel would have several points of access from the perimeter road. The
front of the movie theatre would be oriented towards the west (toward the greater
mall building) with a large porte-cochere proposed at the movie theatre's front
entrance. All drive aisles would conform to Engineering standards.
Parking Facility: The required parking for movie theatres is based on the following methodology:
One (1) parking space per four (4) seats in the auditorium but not less than one (1)
parking space per 100 square feet of gross floor area. The proposed movie theatre
would be 79,500 square feet in area and contain 3,650 seats. Based on the
aforementioned methodology, the move theatre would require 913 parking spaces.
Typically, retail uses within shopping centers require one (1) parking per 200
square feet. However, in 1998, the Boynton Beach Mall was approved with a
variance to require parking at a ratio of four and one-half (4.5) spaces per 1000
square feet rather than five (5) spaces per 1000 square feet. Therefore, with the
variance, the new retail portion of the project would require 79 parking spaces and
the project, as a whole, would require a total of 992 parking spaces.
Parking spaces required for one use or structure may be allocated in part or in
whole for the required parking spaces of another use or structure if quantitative
evidence is provided showing that parking demand for the different uses or
structures would occur on different days of the week or at different hours. The
applicant submitted a shared parking analysis that demonstrates the project's
compliance with code. The shared parking analysis is important because it takes
into consideration, the existing parking from the other leased parcels of the
Boynton Beach Mall. The shared parking analysis surmises that the movie theatre,
in conjunction with the existing floor area of the mall, would require a total of 4,956
parking spaces. A minimum buffer of 10% shall be provided to ensure that a
sufficient number of parking spaces are available at the peak hour / peak season of
parking demand. This buffer would equate to a total of 5,452 required parking
spaces. The overall site plan proposes a total of 5,478 parking spaces, or an excess
of 26 spaces. According to the parking analysis and in accordance with Chapter 2,
Section l1.H.13, the proposed development would provide a sufficient number of
parking spaces to accommodate the proposed Muvico theatre and new retail area.
Landscaping:
The Demolition Plan (sheet C-5) shows that the Macy's leased parcel currently
contains 75 shade trees and 84 palm trees. Out of those trees, 72 shade trees and
80 palm trees would be removed to accommodate the redevelopment. According
to the plant list (sheet L-02), the landscape plan proposes 54 shade trees and 97
palm trees. All shade trees would be native while 63% of the palm trees would be
native. A majority of the shrubs and ground cover would be native as well. The
landscape plan would include the following shade and palm trees: Live Oak,
Gumbo Limbo, Green Buttonwood, Christmas palm, Royal palm, Medjool Date
palm, and Cabbage palm. The shrubs / groundcover would include the following
species: Dwarf Firebush, Dwarf Allamanda, Redtip Cocoplum, Pineapple Guava,
Coontie, and Dwarf Blackhaw Viburnum. Generally, Royal palm trees are proposed
around the north and south sides of the movie theatre. These Royal Palm trees
Staff Report - Muvico at Boynton Beach Mall (MSPM 05-001)
Memorandum No PZ 05-041
Page 5
would be installed at half the building height (20 feet to 24 feet) and in compliance
with Chapter 7.5, Article II, Section S.M. of the Land Development Regulations.
The front (west) fa~ade would have a cluster of Christmas palms and a row of
Medjool Date palm trees in front of the building. Parking lot trees would include
the Gumbo Limbo, Live Oak, and Cabbage palm. The front entrance to the movie
theatre that connects to the Boynton Beach Mall would have a row of Christmas
Palm trees. Staff recommends substituting the Christmas palm trees with Royal
palm trees in order to provide for a more substantial vista (see Exhibit "C" -
Conditions of Approval). Also, the landscape plan shows that no plants would be
installed at the front entrance of the mall where the new retail / restaurant space is
proposed. Therefore, staff recommends creating a landscape strip, at least seven
(7) feet in width, in front (east) of the mall entrance. This landscape strip should
include shrubs and palm trees. This installation can occur during the building
permit review process (see Exhibit "C" - Conditions of Approval).
Building and Site: According to the Overall Site Plan (sheet C-3), the Boynton Beach Mall and its out-
parcels are currently developed with 1,184,045 square feet of gross leasable floor
area. The Macy's building (169,510 square feet) would be demolished and
replaced with 17,528 square feet of retail and a 79,500 square foot stand-alone
movie theatre. After the proposed construction, the gross leasable floor area of the
mall would equate to 1,032,063 square feet. The mall is vested for an extra
42,876 square feet of future retail, which is not shown on the plans. However, in
the future, the applicant would be required to either provide parking for the future
build-out or submit a revised parking analysis, which includes this retail space,
demonstrating compliance with the parking requirements. In any event, the overall
site plan should indicate (by asterisk) that the "future retail" was not considered
within the scope of the shared parking analysis (see Exhibit "C" - Conditions of
Approval).
The movie theatre floor plan illustrates the layout of each theatre room (16 total
rooms). The site plan tabular data indicates the movie theatre would have 3,646
seats but the shared parking analysis was based on 3,650 seats. The legal
advertisement indicates 3,646 seats are proposed so therefore, if approved, the
movie theatre would be limited to 3,646 seats, unless otherwise noted by the
Planning & Development Board and City Commission (see Exhibit "C" - Conditions
of Approval).
The C-3 zoning district allows buildings to reach a maximum height of 45 feet. The
elevations and note #7 on the floor plan (sheet 30.01) indicates that the movie
theatre would be a two (2) story structure, proposed at 45 feet in height.
However, the plans do not indicate the dimension of the roofline. The height of the
roofline must be less than 45 feet. The building would have a upper and lower
parapet wall. The dimension at the peak of the lower parapet wall would be 38
feet - eight (8) inches in height. The applicant has informed staff that the roofline
would be 35 feet - eight (8) inches in height. The dimension of the peak of the
upper parapet wall would be 47 feet - four (4) inches in height. Parapet walls are
not factored into building height such as long as it (the parapet) is five (5) feet in
height or less and does not reach as high as 50 feet. The applicant has informed
Staff Report - Muvico at Boynton Beach Mall (MSPM 05-001)
Memorandum No PZ 05-041
Page 6
staff that roofline would be 44 feet - four (4) inches in height. Nonetheless, at the
time of permitting, the elevations would have to be revised to indicate the building
height, ensuring compliance with the Land Development Regulations (see Exhibit
"c" - Conditions of Approval). The elevation drawings show a "16" as part of the
center arch and parapet of the porte-cochere. However, staff interprets this
element to be a roof-top sign, which is strictly prohibited by the Land Development
Regulations. This "16" element would have to be removed from the elevation
drawings when the plans are submitted for building permits. The top of the
decorative statues is proposed at 64 feet - six (6) inches in height. These
elements (parapet and statues) exceed the maximum allowed height of the C-3
zoning district but being a place of assembly, they are eligible to be considered for
a height exception. The applicant submitted an accompanying request for height
exception (HTEX 05-003) of 19 feet - six (6) inches.
The elevations show that a trellis feature with Bouganvillea is proposed at the rear
(east fa~ade) of the Muvico building. However, this "living" feature it is not shown
on the site plan or landscape plan. The project also proposes a wall (attached to
building) at the rear of the building. Its purpose would be to screen the trash
compactor, which is also proposed within the service area at the rear of the
building. Staff is in favor of both the screen wall and trellis feature but they are not
shown on the site plan or landscape plan. Therefore, these two (2) features must
be shown on both plans at the time of permitting. The plant list would have to be
updated to account for the Bougainvillea (see Exhibit "c" - Conditions of Approval).
As previously mentioned, 17,528 square feet of retail / restaurant is proposed
where the Macy's building is set to be demolished. The floor plan (sheet PD A-1)
indicates that retail and restaurant uses would occupy this space. The gross
leasable area cannot exceed 17,528 square feet. The building addition would be
one (1) story at 26 feet in height. A standing seam metal roof is proposed at the
entrance, consistent with the other mall entrance locations.
Design:
The proposed Muvico building would basically be a multi-colored, big box structure
with Greek revival architectural elements. The front porte-cochere would have the
classic triangular pediment accented with supporting columns of thick girth. These
supporting columns would be constructed of Glass Fiber Reinforced Concrete
(GFRC), off-white in color (Monterey White - HC-27), and surface treated to look
like the authentic stonework. The decorative frieze on the pediment would consist
of the following colors: North Sea Green (2053-30), Province Blue (2135-40),
August Morning (2156-40), Jack 0 'Lantern (2158-30), Hawthorne Yellow (HC-4)
and Olive Branch (2143-30). None of these elements would be back-lit or
illuminated at night. The top of the parapet walls would have decorative cornice
treatments. The cornice would be HC-16 Livingston Gold. The roof of the
pediment would be made of Clay tiles. These clay tiles would be varying shades of
terracotta (Adobe Dust, Pilgrimage Foliage, and Tea). The entire building would
have an exterior finish of simulated stonework. The building's simulated stonework
would have three (3) variations of tan. The Benjamin Moore tan paints are as
follows: HC-9 Chestertown Bluff, HC-3 Greenmount Silk, and HC-14 Princeton
Gold. Likewise, the masonry building base would consist of three varying shades of

Memorandum No PZ 05-041
Page 7
tan. They are as follows: Mannequin Cream (2152-60), Desert Tan (2153-50),
and Cork (2153-40). All proposed colors were excluded from the elevations but
shown on colored rendering and on a separate color schedule. If approved by the
City Commission, all colors shall be shown on the elevations at the time of
permitting (see Exhibit "c" - Conditions of Approval). The Land Development
Regulations aim at preserving distinct architectural patterns within a surrounding
two (2) block radius. While staff observes the architectural style of the movie
theatre does not match the style of the existing mall, it is staff's opinion that the
proposed Muvico building would be acceptable given its limited visibility to
motorists traveling on Congress Avenue. Compatibility is not an issue because the
Muvico building is proposed as a stand-alone structure and separate from the
greater mall. It should be noted that the mall has other stand-alone buildings that
do not exactly match the mall but are compatible with the mall's architecture. Also,
the proposed colors of the movie theatre would be earth-tone and compatible to
the mall's colors. Staff's only recommendation at striving for increased
compatibility is for the movie theatre to utilize the same outdoor freestanding
lighting fixtures that were utilized throughout the mall's parking lots (see Exhibit
"c" - Conditions of Approval). The intent of this recommendation is to discourage
a situation where the Muvico leased parcel would have taller, brighter lights that
stand-out among the rest of the mall's lights, thereby drawing more attention to
the parcel at night than during the day, which in turn, would be a direct conflict
with code. Also, the proposed under-canopy lighting levels should be such that
they provide for a safe environment for pedestrians and vehicles but not luminous
as to be considered obnoxious or attention-getting (see Exhibit "c" - Conditions of
Approval).
As previously mentioned, the proposed retail expansion area would occur where
the Macy's building is set to be demolished. The elevations show that it would
have a modern architectural style with varying earth-tone colors. The proposed
colors of the expansion area would consist of the following ICI paint: #642-
Prairie House, #664 Raw Twine, #532 Haymarket, #651 Papier Mache, and #1930
Tropic Night. The metal roof would be painted #462 Western Trail. All proposed
colors were excluded from the elevation drawings but were shown on a separate,
colored rendering. If approved by the City Commission, all colors shall be shown
on the elevations at the time of permitting (see Exhibit "c" - Conditions of
Approval). The elevations do not indicate the colors of the existing mall. However,
staff conducted a site visit and observed the mall's existing building colors and
determined that the existing colors and the proposed colors would be compatible.
Staff recommends including the same white, wall-mounted decorative lighting
fixtures on the expansion area as that of the wall-mounted lighting fixtures used on
the other mall entrance (see Exhibit "c" - Conditions of Approval).
Signage:
Exterior wall signs for shopping malls are based on the size (area) of each building
wall. According to Chapter 21, Article IV, Section 4.A, each wall is allowed one (1)
exterior wall sign such as long as the sign does not exceed 10% of the exterior wall
face upon which they are attached. The wall signage chart (on sheet A-2)
indicates that the proposed sign area of each sign would comply with the 10%
limitation. However, the "Reader Boards", proposed with changeable typeface,
Staff Report - Muvico at Boynton Beach Mall (MSPM 05-001)
Memorandum No PZ 05-041
Page 8
would not be allowed because that would constitute two (2) signs on each wall,
which would conflict with the above referenced code. Therefore, at the time of
permitting, the elevations would have to be revised to eliminate either the reader
board or the "Muvico 16" sign (see Exhibit "c" - Conditions of Approval). The
"Muvico" sign would contain internally illuminated red letters. The reader board
letters would be acrylic (no color indicated). The elevations of the movie theatre
also show a detail of the movie poster case. These move poster cases are
proposed along sidewalk level on all building facades of the movie theatre. The
detail shows that they would be four (4) feet - two (2) inches in width and six (6)
feet in height. These poster cases are not considered part of the movie theatre
sign program.
The elevations (sheet PD A-1) of the 17,528 square foot retail expansion area show
that a blue "Boynton Beach" sign would be located at center, above the main
entrance. Staff recommends that the signage proposed on the expansion building
must either match or closely resemble the existing signage from the remaining mall
entrances (see Exhibit "c" - Conditions of Approval).
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff has reviewed this request for new site plan approval and is recommending approval of the site plan,
contingent upon the approval of the accompanying request for height exception and satisfying all
conditions 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.

Existing Trees Management Plan
Sheet L-O I
29. The Landscape Architect should tabulate the total existing trees on the site.
The tabular data should show the individual species of trees proposed to
remain in place, be relocated throughout the site, or removed / replaced on
site. All desirable species of existing trees must be relocated rather than
removed if the trees are in good health. These trees should be shown by a
separate symbol on the landscape plan sheet L-02 (Chapter 7.5, Article I Sec.
7.D.p.2.).
Landscape Plan
Sheet L-02. L-03
30. All shade and palm trees on the Plant list must be listed in the specifications
as a minimum of 12'-14' height, 3" diameter at DBH (4.5' off the ground),
and Florida #1 (Florida Grades and Standards manual). The height of the
trees may be larger than 12' -14' to meet the 3" diameter requirement.
[Environmental Regulations, Chapter 7.5, Article II Sec. 5.C. 2.]
31. All trees, if proposed as trees, must be at least 12 feet in height and three (3)
caliper inches at the time of their installation (Chapter 7.5, Article II, Section
5.C.2.).
PLANNING AND ZONING
Comments:
32. Approval of this site plan is contingent upon the accompanying request for
height exception (HTEX 05-004). On the site plan tabular data (sheet C-4),
correct the "maximum building height" to indicate 45 feet rather than 54 feet.
33. The maximum height allowed in the C-3 zoning district is 45 feet (Chapter 2,
Section 6.C.). At the time of permitting, the elevations shall indicate the
building height, ensuring compliance with aforementioned code.
34. The shared parking analysis indicates the project would contain 3,650 seats
but the site plan (sheet C-4) tabular data indicates 3,646 seats. The legal
advertisement indicates 3,646 seats are proposed so therefore, if approved, the
movie theatre would be limited to 3,646 seats, unless properly clarified,
documented, or amended subsequently.
35. The traffic impact study must be approved by the Palm Beach County Traffic
Division for concurrency purposes prior to the issuance of any building
permits.
36. The project requires a total of 5,562 parking spaces but only provides 5,478
parking spaces, a deficit of 84 parking spaces. However, the applicant
submitted quantitative evidence (shared parking analysis) that demonstrates
COAdoc
03/16/05

DEPARTMENTS INCLUDE REJECT
varying parking demand on different days or times of the week. The
quantitative evidence included estimates for peak hour / peak season parking
demand based on statistical data furnished by the Urban Land Institute
(Chapter 2, Section l1.H.13). The analysis was reviewed and found to be
acceptable to staff. The Planning & Development Board and City
Commission must approve the shared parking analysis.
37. The overall site plan (sheet C-3) tabular data indicates 42,876 square feet of
"future retail". This future building area was not a component of the shared
parking analysis and should be indicated as such on the overall site plan
tabular data.
38. At the time of permitting, All building elevations (for both Muvico and Retail
"A") should indicate paint manufacturer's name and color codes (Chapter 4,
Section 7.D.). Staff recommends using a color schedule.
39. On the landscape plan, ensure that the plant quantities must match between
the tabular data and the graphic illustration.
40. A signature tree (such as a Yellow Elder, Tibouchina Granu1s01a, or
Bouganvillea) is required at both sides of all project entrances (off the loop
road). The signature trees must have eight (8) feet of clear trunk if placed
within the safe-sight triangle (Chapter 7.5, Article 2, Section 5.N.).
Alternative plant material may be substituted if the above referenced plant
material is not available or undesired. Any substitution of plant material (for
the signature tree requirement) will be subject to the City Forester /
Environmentalist review and approval.
41. One (1) wall sign is allowed on each wall of the movie theatre building
(Chapter 21, Article IV, Section 4). The elevations (of the Muvico building)
show that reader boards are proposed on the same wall as the "Muvico" wall
sign. Both signs are not allowed on the same wall. At the time of permitting,
eliminate one (1) wall sign where there are two (2) proposed. A variance
would have to be applied for, reviewed, and approved by the Planning &
Development Board and City Commission in order to have two (2) wall signs
on one (1 ) wall.
42. Eliminate the "16" portion of the project signage because as proposed, is
considered a roof-top sign. Roof-top signs are not permitted under Chapter
21, Article II, Section 3.G of the Land Development Regulations.
43. Rooftop air-conditioner units must be screened by the parapet walls. All
rooftop equipment must be completed screened from view at a minimum
distance of 600 feet (Chapter 9, Section 1I.E.).
44. Feature lighting emphasizing plants, trees, barriers, entrances, and exits is
encouraged (Chapter 9, Section 1O.F.3.).
45. Lighting may be used to illuminate a building and its grounds for safety
COA.doc

DEPARTMENTS INCLUDE REJECT
purposes and to enhance its beauty. However, the visual effect shall be subtle
(Chapter 9, Section 10.FA.). Staff recommends that the illumination levels
shall not exceed 10 footcandles.
46. Lighting shall not be used as a form of advertising in a manner that draws
more attention to the building or grounds at night than in the day (Chapter 9,
Section 10.F.5.).
47. Provide a detail of a typical outdoor freestanding lighting fixture. The detail
of the typical freestanding outdoor lighting fixture should include the overall
height, exterior finish, materials used (i.e. concrete or aluminum) and
color(s). Staff recommends that the proposed lighting fixtures (and
footcandle levels) used in the new parking areas should be the same lighting
fixtures (and footcandle levels) that are used throughout the remainder of the
mall's parking lots. Also, staff recommends limiting the under canopy
lighting levels to 10 footcandles or less.
48. The elevations show a trellis structure with Bougainvillea is proposed at the
rear of the Muvico building. This element was omitted from the site plan and
landscape plan. At the time of permitting, revise either the site plan or
landscape plan to show the trellis structure. Regardless, the screen wall shall
be painted to match the principle structure.
49. To soften the hardscape area, staff recommends installing a seven (7) foot
wide planter strip directly in front (east) of the new retail area. Native hedge
material and palm trees should be installed within the planter strip. This can
be accomplished during the permitting process.
50. Staff recommends that the signage proposed on the expansion building must
either match or closely resemble the existing signage on the other mall
entrances.
51. To create a more grandiose entrance to the movie theatre, staff recommends
substituting the 14 Christmas palm trees with 14 Royal Palm trees.
52. Staff recommends including the same white, wall-mounted decorative
lighting fixtures on the expansion area as that of the wall-mounted fixtures
used on the other mall entrance.

Subject: Boynton Beach Mall Exterior Landscape Plans/Code Compliance
We have been working with Scott Blaise, Code Compliance, and Kevin
Hallahan, City Forester, regarding the Code violation. At this time we
have an extension from Scott until June 15, 2005. If we resolve this issue
prior to that, we may not go to the June 15 meeting.
At this time we have a preliminary plan for Javeret Street landscape and
irrigation. Kevin H. has seen these plans. We are beginning the
irrigation on Javeret Street any day. I just reviewed the plans and signed
off on the proposal about a week ago. The Javeret project will take
precedence, along with the pine Preserve Project, as Kevin H. has advised.
The Pine Preserve will have a new group handling the maintenance that is
more environmentally friendly.
The remainder of the landscape as builts have been reviewed with Kevin H.
and are being revised. They should be ready in about two weeks.
This project will be done in phases:
Javeret St. in 2005 prior to June 15, 2005
The Pine Preserve Maintenance in 2005 prior to June 15, 2005
Portions of the Remainder of the Property in 2005 and 2006
Tom Marsicano wanted me to update you on this prior to the City Commission
Meeting this evening.

Dear Mr. Marsicano:
We are in receipt of your request for an Administrative Waiver to City Standard K-1, Standard Parking
Stall & Aisle Dimension, dated January 12, 2005. You wish to utilize the previous standard under
which the remaining parking at the Mall was constructed, that is a 9-ft. x 18-ft. stall with a 27 -ft. backup
distance. Your request is approved.
Please be advised that all other CODE, Land Development Regulations, and Engineering Standards
still apply to the construction of the subject driveways.
If you have questions or need additional information, please feel free to contact me at (561) 742-6488

SUBJECT: Muvico - Boynton Beach Mall
REFERENCES: Impacts of Proposed Site Plan Upon City
Services
ENCLOSURES:
I have reviewed the building plans and proposed project for Muvico- Boynton Beach Mall.
A Crime statistic analysis shows that there were 2,079 calls for service to the Mall. This represents 3.2 % of all
. police calls for service. A comparison study was conducted to show police calls for service at Regal Cinemas
and Movies of Boynton. There were 80 calls to these two cinemas. It is estimated that Muvico will increase the
Mall's police call for service by 5%.
A concern with the addition of this project is the consideration of juvenile related problems; i.e. loitering,
police assist and trespassing. There were 81 trespass and 254 police assist related calls to the Mall, with most
being juvenile related. In comparison, Muvico has had a direct impact on police services in City Place, WPB.
The WPB police department has been forced to have several officers scheduled for Muvico as a deterrent to
juvenile problems. In addition, Muvico has hired Private Security to assist with any future problems that may
arise from large gatherings of juveniles.
With an estimated increase of 5 % to call for service to the Mall, service requirements and police personnel will
be greatly impacted at this location.

RE: Muvico building height
According to note 7 on Sheet 30.01, the main roof height is 45 feet. Then according to the elevations Sheet A-2, the top of
the highest parapet is 47 feet - 4 inches. The sloped roof that extends out over the porte cochere mid-point appears to
match the top of the highest parapet, again 47 feet - 4 inches., with the west end of the facade of the parapet over the
porte cochere at an elevation of 59 feet (which is to the top of the circular 16). With the modification of the16 from what
was originally submitted (where it sat wholly on top, rather than integrated like now), I am confortable not calling it a roof
sign. If this sounds like the ramblings of a madman (and they probably are) see me for clarification! Ed

Subject: Muvico building height
Ed,
I'm having a problem with the building height of Muvico. The elevations do not indicate the dimension of the deck line
and the peak of all parapet walls exceed the maximum height of the C-3 zoning district. I'd like to discuss this plan
with you before staff makes a recommendation to the Board and City Commission. Thanks, Eric

Chief, Officer Huntington commented on this project for us and noted the additional issues characteristic of movie theaters
which typically generate extra calls for service. Given that, what is your position on requiring the applicant via the
conditions of approval, to provide additional security personnel or pay for off-duty officers? Do you have suggested
language for our conditions of approval to address additional personnel, or that may address the affects? I just don't want
to be commenting without your expertise and input.

19. Please provide a time line that clearly illustrates when water and sewer
services will be required to serve the proposed project. Your starting date
for the time line should be the date of City Commission approval. Also /
provide milestone dates for permit application, the start of construction, and
the setting of the first water meter. This timeline will be used to determine
the adequacy of water and wastewater treatment capacity for your project
upon the project's completion, so please be as accurate as possible.
20. All utility easements and utility lines 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.
21. Palm Beach County Health Department permits will be required for the /
water and sewer systems serving this project (CODE, Section 26-12).
22. Fire flow calculations will be required demonstrating the City Code
requirement of 1,500 g.p.m. (500 g.p.m. some residential developments) /
with 20 p.s.i. residual pressure 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)).
23. The LDR, Chapter 6, Article IV, Section 16 requires that all points on each ~
building will be within 200 feet of an existing or proposed fire hydrant.
Please demonstrate that the plan meets this condition, by showing all
hydrants.
24. 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 seven (7) days of site
plan approval, whichever occurs first. This fee will be determined based
upon final meter size, or expected demand.
25. Water and sewer lines to be owned and operated by the City shall be
included within utility easements. Please show all proposed easements on J
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).
/
26. This office will not require surety for installation of the water and sewer -:7
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.
27. 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.
28. The Utility Plan reflects the re-routing of the sanitary sewer and stormwater
collection system within the footprint of the proposed building. It does not //
show the re-routing of the existing 10-inch water line existing along the
proposed front wall of the new building. This obviously will be required.
In addition, another link of the sanitary sewer (from the Sears automobile
service facility) may come into the existing manhole located at the
northwest corner of the proposed building and has not been addressed.
Show the sanitary sewer for Sears Automotive and address relocation of this
line.
29. The proposed 4-inch water meter seems excessive. A smaller meter should ~
be considered.
30. PVC material not permitted on the City's water system. All lines shall be /
DIP.
31. Appropriate backflow preventer will be required on the domestic water /
service to the building, and the fire sprinkler line if there is one, in
accordance with CODE Sec. 26-207.
32. The LDR, Chapter 3, Article IV, Section 3(0) requires Master Plans to t/~
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.
/
33. The LDR, Chapter 3, Article IV, Section 3(P) requires a statement be V
included that utilities are available and will be provided by all other
appropriate agencies. This statement is lacking on the submitted plans.
34. Utility construction details will not be reviewed for construction /
acceptability at this time. All utility construction details shall be in
accordance with the Utilities Department's "Utilities Engineering Design
Handbook and Construction Standards" manual (including any updates);
they will be reviewed at the time of construction permit application.

The proposed projects listed above will be compatible with future capabilities for
fire services provided the followinq issues are adequately addressed:
Increased population will increase the number of emergency responses. To
meet the increased demand additional resources are required such as
personnel, apparatus, and equipment. It is imperative that the new fire
stations be completed and in service by the time these new projects are
completed and occupied, and that Fire Station #5 be expedited to insure
adequate service delivery levels and effective response times.
Increased population, particularly densely populated areas, increases the
potential for mass casualty events. Traffic congestion adversely affects
response time and accessibility.
These projects will increase the demand for water. The LDR requirement for
an adequate water supply for fire protection must be met. This requirement
calls for a hydrant flow of at least 1500 gallons per minute above the domestic
use, at a minimum residual pressure of 20 psi. Flow test are required prior to
the permitting of any new structures.
Every added new commercial and multi-family occupancy increases the
annual fire prevention inspection workload as required by ordinance.
Although there have been a large number of these occupancies added in the
past several years, our inspection staff has remained the same. This situation
has reached a point that may soon require changes in our inspection
schedules that may negatively affect our future success. The past and
current service level has prevented any significant fires in these occupancies
for several years.
New development projects involving multi-family or high-density commercial
projects should be approved contingent upon consideration of critical
upgrades in emergency dispatch capability. These enhancements include
new technology related to CAD, GIS, and AVL capability, as well as adequate
staffing. All other factors (personnel, training, technology, fire station
placement, building design features, etc) depend on a reliable and efficient
method of getting the resources provided where they are needed in time to
mitigate the consequences of an emergency, regardless of the type of
response.
MEMORANDUM
UTILITIES DEPARTMENT NO. 04-141
TO:
Ed Breese, Principal Planner
FROM:
Peter Mazzella, Deputy Director of Utilities
DATE:
December 16, 2004
SUBJECT: Impacts of proposed Site Plans upon City facilities and services
On December 8, 2004, you requested input regarding the adequacy of our existing infrastructure
or staff needed to meet adopted level of service demands for the following proposed projects:
Boynton Lofts
Grove Plaza Parcel C
Quantum Park Lot 17
Quantum Park Lot 52
Gulfstream Gardens
Neptune Commerce Center
Boynton Beach Mall - Muvico
All of the above projects, with the exception of Muvico, will impose additional demands upon
our potable water and wastewater infrastructure. The Muvico demands will be offset by the
dernolition ofthe existing Macy's building. The attached spreadsheet presents detailed
information on the anticipated additional water and sewer demands for each project.
The recently approved interim purchase of up to 5 million gallons per day of potable water from
the County water system will allow us to meet the level of service for potable water for all of
these projects, during the term of that 5-year agreement. Beyond that term, the City will have to
arrange for the installation or purchase of permanent water treatment capacity. Local piping and
infrastructure improvements may be required for the Boynton Lofts and Gulfstream Gardens
projects, dependent upon final project configuration and fire-flow demands. These local
improvements will be the responsibility of the site developer(s).
Regarding wastewater, the utility currently has sufficient reserve capacity at the regional
wastewater treatment plant to meet the level of service for wastewater for all ofthese projects.
As with water infrastructure, local piping or pumping improvements may be required based upon
final project configuration, and would be the responsibility of the developer(s).
If you have any additional questions or comments on the attached, please feel free to contact me
directly.

RE:
The above referenced Site Plans, received on December 7, 2004, was reviewed for Public Works,
Engineering and Utilities against the requirements outlined in the City of Boynton Beach Code of
Ordinances. Following are our comments with the appropriate Code and Land Development Regulations
(LOR) referenced.
PUBLIC WORKS - GENERAL
1. Prior to permit application contact the Public Works Department (561-742-6200) regarding the
storage and handling of refuse per the CODE, Article II, Section 10-26 (a).
2. Show location of solid waste collection sites that will meet the needs of the Muvico and retail spaces.
PUBLIC WORKS - TRAFFIC
3. Provide a traffic analysis and notice of concurrency (Traffic Performance Standards Review) from
Palm Beach County Traffic Engineering.
4. On the Site and Civil plans, show and identify all necessary traffic control devices such as stop bars,
stop signs, double yellow lane separators striping, directional arrows and "Do Not Enter" signage, etc.
Delineate and stripe the "Loading Area" (where applicable - LOR, Chapter 2, Section 11.J.) See City
Standard Drawings "K" Series for striping details.
5. Indicate parking stall dimensions on the plans. Current standards require a 9Y:z-ft. x 18Y:z-ft. stall with
a 25-ft. backup. However, by written request, an administrative waiver may be granted allowing
continued use of the existing conditions at the mall (9-ft. x 18-ft. with a 27-ft. backup.) Please
address the request to the Senior Engineer, Laurinda Logan, for processing.
ENGINEERING
6. Permits may be required from other permitting agencies such as Florida Department of
Transportation (FOOT), South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD), Lake Worth Drainage
District (LWDD), Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP), Palm Beach County Health
Department (PBCHD), Palm Beach County Engineering Department (PBCED), Palm Beach County
Department of Environmental Resource Management (PBCDERM) and any others, shall be included
with the permit request.

7. All comments requiring changes and/or corrections to the plans shall be reflected on all appropriate
sheets.
8. Please note that changes or reVISions to these plans may generate additional comments.
Acceptance of these plans during the TRC process does not ensure that additional comments may
not be generated by the Commission and at permit review.
9. Provide written and graphic scales on all sheets.
10. Show proposed site lighting on the Site and Landscape plans (LOR, Chapter 4, Section 7.B.4.) The
lighting design shall provide a minimum average light level of one foot-candle. If possible please
provide photometrics as part of your TRC plan submittals - it is much easier to identify and correct
any deficiencies now than while you are waiting on a permit!
11. It may be necessary to replace or relocate large canopy trees adjacent to light fixtures to eliminate
future shadowing on the parking surface (LOR, Chapter 23, Article II, Section A.1.b).
12. Landscaped areas shall be protected from vehicular encroachment by a continuous, raised curb
(LOR, Chapter 7.5, Article II, Section 5.A. and Chapter 22, Article II, Section E.)
13. Provide an engineer's certification on the Drainage Plan as specified in LOR, Chapter 4, Section
7.F.2.
14. Full drainage plans, including drainage calculations, in accordance with the LOR, Chapter 6, Article
IV, Section 5 will be required at the time of permitting.
15. Indicate by note that catch basin and manhole covers shall be bicycle proof (LOR, Chapter 6, Article
IV, Section 5.A.2.g).
16. Maximum runoff distance over impervious surfaces before diversion to percolation areas is 50-ft.
(LOR, Chapter 6, Article IV, Section 5.B.2.a.)
17. Specify storm sewer diameters, inlets types, etc. on drainage plan. Indicate grate, rim and invert
elevations for all structures. Indicate grade of storm sewer segments. Indicate material specifications
for storm sewer.
18. Paving, Drainage and Site details will not be reviewed for construction acceptability at this time. All
engineering construction details shall be in accordance with the applicable City of Boynton Beach
Standard Drawings and the "Engineering Design Handbook and Construction Standards" and
will be reviewed at the time of construction permit application.
UTILITIES
19. Please provide a timeline that clearly illustrates when water and sewer services will be required to
serve the proposed project. Your starting date for the timeline should be the date of City Commission
approval. Also provide milestone dates for permit application, the start of construction, and the setting
of the first water meter. This timeline will be used to determine the adequacy of water and
wastewater treatment capacity for your project upon the project's completion, so please be as
accurate as possible.

20. All utility easements and utility lines 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.
21. Palm Beach County Health Department permits will be required for the water and sewer systems
serving this project (CODE, Section 26-12).
22. Fire flow calculations will be required demonstrating the City Code requirement of 1,500 g.p.m. (500
g.p.m. some residential developments) with 20 p.s.i. residual pressure 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)).
23. The LDR, Chapter 6, Article IV, Section 16 requires that all points on each building will be within 200
feet of an existing or proposed fire hydrant. Please demonstrate that the plan meets this condition,
by showing all hydrants.
24. 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
seven (7) days of site plan approval, whichever occurs first. This fee will be determined based upon
final meter size, or expected demand.
25. 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).
26. 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.
27. 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.
28. The Utility Plan reflects the re-routing of the sanitary sewer and stormwater collection system within
the footprint of the proposed building. HOWEVER, it does not show the re-routing of the existing 10-
inch water line existing along the proposed front wall of the new building. This obviously will be
required. In addition, another link of the sanitary sewer (from the Sears automobile service facility)
may come into the existing manhole located at the northwest corner of the proposed building and has
not been addressed. Show the sanitary sewer for Sears Automotive and address relocation of this
line.
29. The proposed 4-in. water meter seems excessive. A smaller meter should be considered.

30. PVC material not permitted on the City's water system. All lines shall be DIP.
31. Appropriate backflow preventer will be required on the domestic water service to the building, and the
fire sprinkler line if there is one, in accordance with CODE Sec. 26-207.
32. 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.
33. The LDR, Chapter 3, Article IV, Section 3(P) requires a statement be included that utilities are
available and will be provided by all other appropriate agencies. This statement is lacking on the
submitted plans.
34. Utility construction details will not be reviewed for construction acceptability at this time. All utility
construction details shall be in accordance with the Utilities Department's "Utilities Engineering
Design Handbook and Construction Standards" manual (including any updates); they will be
reviewed at the time of construction permit application.

RE: Muvico Shared Parking Analysis
Jeff,
Thank you for your review. I think it is right on the mark. The mall management has been a party at every meeting we
have had with Muvico and are amending the D'RI and the master plan for the site to accomodate Muvico. Thanks again for
your analysis. Ed

Subject: Muvico Shared Parking Analysis
Ed,
I have reviewed the Shared Parking Analysis prepared by URS for the Muvico project received in your office on
January 4, 2005. I find no significant flaws in the analysis. There appears to be adequate parking on the mall site to
accommodate the proposed theater, particularly because the City of Boynton Beach requires a 10% buffer. This buffer
increases the available parking to a number that is greater than industry standard.
However, please note the analysis considers all the parking at the mall site. Therefore, the assumption is that
customers of the mall (and theater) will be willing to seek out the most remote space during peak periods. That space
may not be convenient to their destination. This could be critical around the theater and those specific mall entrances.
Will you have a process whereby mall management gives their blessing to this project?
Jeff

comments re Muvico at Mall
Chief, Officer Huntington commented on this project for us and noted the additional issues characteristic of movie theaters
which typically generate extra calls for service. Given that, what is your position on requiring the applicant via the
conditions of approval, to provide additional security personnel or pay for off-duty officers? Do you have suggested
language for our conditions of approval to address additional personnel, or that may address the affects? I just don't want
to be commenting without your expertise and input.

UTILITIES DEPARTMENT NO. 04-141
TO:
Ed Breese, Principal Planner
Peter Mazzella, Deputy Director of Utilities ~
FROM:
DATE:
December 16,2004
SUBJECT: Impacts of proposed Site Plans upon City facilities and services
On December 8, 2004, you requested input regarding the adequacy of our existing infrastructure
or staff needed to meet adopted level of service demands for the following proposed projects:
Boynton Lofts
Grove Plaza Parcel C
Quantum Park Lot 17
Quantum Park Lot 52
Gulfstream Gardens
Neptune Commerce Center
Boynton Beach Mall - Muvico
All of the above projects, with the exception ofMuvico, will impose additional demands upon
our potable water and wastewater infrastructure, The Muvico demands will be offset by the
demolition of the existing Macy's building. The attached spreadsheet presents detailed
information on the anticipated additional water and sewer demands for each project.
The recently approved interim purchase of up to 5 million gallons per day of potable water from
the County water system will allow us to meet the level of service for potable water for all of
these projects, during the term of that 5-year agreement. Beyond that term, the City will have to
arrange for the installation or purchase of permanent water treatment capacity. Local piping and
infrastructure improvements may be required for the Boynton Lofts and Gulfstream Gardens
projects, dependent upon final project configuration and fire-flow demands. These local
improvements will be the responsibility of the site developer(s).
Regarding wastewater, the utility currently has sufficient reserve capacity at the regional
wastewater treatment plant to meet the level of service for wastewater for all of these projects.
As with water infrastructure, local piping or pumping improvements may be required based upon
final project configuration, and would be the responsibility of the developer(s).
If you have any additional questions or comments on the attached, please feel free to contact me
directly.
