BACKGROUND
Mr. George Figler, Senior Project Manager for Muvico Theaters is requesting a one (l)-year time extension for
the Muvico Theaters at the Boynton Beach Mall Site Plan and Height Exception Development Orders (MSPM 05-
001 and HTEX 05-003) which were approved by the City Commission on April 19, 2005. The site plan approval
is valid for one (1) year from the date of approval, unless a building permit has been issued or a time extension
applied for. If this request for extensions were approved, the expiration date of this site plan, including
concurrency certification would be extended to April 19, 2007.
According to the original site plan staff report, Muvico was approved to construct a movie theatre, 79,500
square feet in area and containing 3,650 seats on 1l.64-acres, at the Boynton Beach Mall (301 N. Congress
Avenue). The height exception request was for two (2) decorative statues proposed on the roof, which were 64
feet - six (6) inches in height, or 19 feet - six (6) inches above the district height limitation of 45 feet in the C-
3 zoning district. In addition, 17,528 square feet of new retail space was approved to be constructed at the
former Macy's mall entrance.
ANAL YSIS
According to Chapter 4, Section 5 of the Land Development Regulations, "the applicant shall have one (1)
year to secure a building permit from the Development Department". Examples of building permits include
but are not limited to the following: Plumbing, electrical, mechanical, foundation, and structural. The
Regulations authorize the City Commission to approve one (1) year time extensions, provided that the
applicant files the request prior to the expiration date of the development order. In this case, the applicant
has met that requirement. The Planning & Zoning Division received the extension request March 15, 2006,
approximately a month prior to the expiration of the site plan and height exception.
According to the time extension application, Mr. Figler documents their meetings with staff to discuss the
reduction from the original 16-plex design to a 14-plex design, as a result of increased construction costs.
They have been working on the redesign, which has taken considerable time and are nearly complete with
the architectural and engineering drawings associated therewith. The mall owner is working with FP&L on
some underground utility work in the vicinity of the theatre, and upon completion of that work (tentatively
scheduled for June), the sales transaction between Muvico and the Mall will be completed. Lastly, Mr. Figler
indicates that Muvico has paid $28,720.00 in permit fees to date. As such, they are requesting a one (1) year
time extension to gain the necessary permits and begin construction.
Also, a more formal criterion for evaluating requests for time extensions is compliance with concurrency
requirements. Traffic concurrency was approved without a build-out date, due to the reduction in trips
associated with the demolition of the Macy's building. As for utilities, a utility reservation fee is not required
due to the fact that the proposed improvements are replacing the demolished department store. The site plan
time extension would still be subject to the original conditions of site plan and height exception approval.
Lastly, no new land development regulations are now In place against which the project should be reviewed
and modified.

Memorandum No. PZ 06-079
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends approval of this request for a one (1) year time extension of the site plan (MSPM 05-001)
and height exception (HTEX 05-003). If this requests for extension were approved, the expiration date of both
applications, including concurrency certification would be extended to April 19, 2007, and all conditions from
the original approvals must still be satisfactorily addressed during the building permit process.

Re: Muvico 14 Boynton Beach Request for Extension of Site Plan Approval
Dear Mike,
Site plan approval for the above mentioned project was granted by the City Commission on April
17,2005. Since that time Muvico has been using its best efforts to secure all governmental
approvals to allow for the construction of our theater.
Spiraling construction costs have forced us to scale back from our original 16-plex design to the
14-plex theater you and your statfreviewed at our meeting on February 14,2006, and
subsequently approved.
This redesign has however resulted in a loss of time and the reason for this request.
We are therefore requesting an extension to our current site plan approval for a period of one year
to allow us to complete construction drawings and resubmit them to the City Building
Department for permitting.
Muvico is committed to construct our theater at the Boynton Beach Mall. We offer the following
as evidence of this certainty:
3101 North Federal Highway, 6th Floor
Fort lauderdale, FL 33306-1042
Tel: (954) 564-6550
Fax: (954) 564-6553
. Site Plan Approval granted by City Commission on April 17, 2005.
. Original permit drawings submitted on July 27, 2005.
. Permit drawings resubmitted on September 1,2005.
. Permit fees paid to date, $28,720.00.
· Muvico intends to purchase our site from the Developer once underground utility work is
completed by FPL. We have been advised by the Developer that this work should be
completed in June 2006. We will close shortly thereafter.
Weare excited at the prospect of this new theater in Boynton Beach and ask that the requested
extension of time be granted.
Should you have any questions or concerns, please call me.
Cc. Mr. Mike Wilson, Muvico Theaters, Inc.
Mr. Jim Andreone, DDG.
Mr. Don Pollard, Simon Property Group.

1. Project:
Fosters Mill (MPMD 05-010)
Agent:
George Delarosa, President of Fosters Mill HOA
Owner:
N/A
Location:
North side of Miner Road between Congress Avenue and
Lawrence Road.
Description:
Request for Master Plan Modification of the Fosters Mill
P.U.D. to reduce the minimum side yard setback from ten
(10) feet to eight (8) feet and the minimum rear yard
setback from five (5) feet to three (3) feet for screened
roof enclosures, and to reduce the minimum rear yard
setback for pools from eight (8) feet to five (5) feet.
Chair Wische read the request and indicated staff recommends approval without any staff
conditions indicated. The agent, George Delarosa was present.
Mr. Breese, Principal Planner for the City indicated this request was similar to Citrus Glen
approximately a year ago. He explained this situation had a master plan with the same side
setback for pools and for screen rooms. That meant if someone built a pool, then sold and the
new owner decided to screen in the pool, the owner would have a problem because the screen
would be at waters edge on that side. He elaborated the applicant requested staff revisit the
issue and look at an eight foot setback for the screen room, and also look at allowing them more
flexibility for the construction of pools for the future. The request would reduce the rear yard
setback for pools from eight feet to five feet, thereby, at the same time, changing the screen
room enclosure for the rear yard setback from the existing five foot to three feet. The unique
issue with this PUD is almost every lot in the development either backs up on the 20 feet
landscape perimeter buffer, or on one of the lakes or common areas. There are eight lots,
which back up to other lots and for those lots, staff was recommending that they retain the
current master plan designation for rear, pool and screen enclosure setbacks.
Chair Wische opened and closed the floor for public comment.
The board discussed the item and noted the developer involved in designing the subdivision,
caused the issue with the setbacks. The developers should not have been allowed to develop
the subdivision the way they did. The board also noted with the common areas adjacent to the
affected properties that staff was recommending approval. It was a prior situation that required
the present request.
Motion
A motion was made by Mr. Casaine to approve the request for Master Plan Modification of the
Fosters Mill P.U.D. to reduce the minimum side yard setback from ten (10) feet to eight (8) feet
and the minimum rear yard setback from five (5) feet to three (3) feet for screened roof
enclosures, and to reduce the minimum rear yard setback for pools from eight (8) feet to five (5)
feet. Vice Chair Hay seconded the motion that unanimously passed.

The agent, George Figler, 3101 N. Federal Highway, Ft. Lauderdale, was present.
Chair Wische read the request. Mr. Figler explained market conditions have driven the
developer to delay the project. They had immediately went into permitting after the initial
approvals and expected to be finished with permitting within the next 30 to 60 days, with the
intent to build immediately thereafter. The construction is typically a 12-month build-out, and for
the movie business, they would like to be up by July of next year.
