REVIEW COMMENTS DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT PLANNING AND ZONING DIVISION MEMORANDUM NO. PZ 05-126 STAFF REPORT FROM: Chair and Members Planning and Development Board and City Commission Michael Rum~ \lJ ~ Planning and Zoning Director Ed Breese ~ Principal Pla~n~j TO: THRU: DATE: July 12, 2005 PROJECT NAME/NO: Children's Services Council / NWSP 05 - 018 REQUEST: New Site Plan PROJECT DESCRIPTION Property Owner: Children's Services Council of P.B. County Applicant: Children's Services Council of P.B. County Agent: Michael O. Rossin, STH Architectural Group, Inc. Location: Quantum Park Lot 91, northeast corner of Gateway Blvd. and High Ridge Road (see Exhibit "A" - Location Map) Existing Land Use/Zoning: Industrial (I) / Planned Industrial District (PID) Proposed Land Use/Zoning: No change proposed Proposed Use: Request for New Site Plan approval for construction of a three (3) story, 100,000 square foot office building on a 6.53 acre parcel Acreage: 6.53 acres Adjacent Uses: North: Gateway Professional Center to the northwest and to the northeast, the Tri-Rail station, both with an Industrial (I) land use designation, and zoned Planned Industrial Development (PID); South: Right-of-way for Gateway Boulevard, then farther south vacant Lots 81 & 82 in Quantum Park, owned by the City Of Boynton Beach, with an Industrial (I) land use designation, and zoned Planned Industrial Development (PID); Staff Report - Children's Services Council (NWSP 05-018) Memorandum No PZ 05-126 Page 2 East: Right-of-way for the CSX Railroad, then farther east right-of-way for Interstate 95; and West: Right-of-way of High Ridge Road, then farther west vacant land approved for the Quantum Park and Village North mixed use project with an Industrial (I) land use designation, and zoned Planned Industrial Development (PID). Project size: The project consists of a three-story, 100,000 square foot office building on 6.53 acres. Site Characteristic: The subject parcel is comprised of Lot 91 of the Quantum Park PID and is a fairly rectangular shaped piece of land approximately 650 feet long and approximately 450 feet wide. The parcel is vacant and situated between High Ridge Road on the west and The CSX Railroad on the east, along the north side of Gateway Boulevard. The survey shows that the highest elevation is 33.7 feet above sea level, located near the southwest property line, along High Ridge Road. BACKGROUND Proposal: The Children's Services Council proposes to construct a three (3) story, 100,000 square foot office building. The project consists of a forty-five (45) foot tall office building with 311 parking spaces. Previous applications for development of the site by different owners included an Ice Skating Facility and a Gas Station. ANALYSIS Concurrency: Traffic: A traffic concurrency approval letter was received from Palm Beach County Traffic Engineering. No permits are to be issued after the proposed build-out year of 2007, without further approvals from Palm Beach County. Drainage: Conceptual drainage information was provided for the City's review. The Engineering Division has found the conceptual information for the subject property to be adequate and is recommending that the review of specific drainage solutions be deferred until time of permit review. School: This project is exempt from the school concurrency requirements of Palm Beach County. Driveways: The subject property fronts on the access drive to the Tri-Rail Station from High Ridge Road. Proposed on-site circulation consists of a single driveway entrance/exit from this shared access drive, affording unobstructed traffic circulation throughout the proposed parking area. Parking Facility: Parking required for this type of facility is based on one (1) parking space per 300 square feet of office space, for a total of 300 parking spaces. The plan as designed accommodates 311 parking spaces, including 8 handicap spaces. The typical parking spaces are dimensioned 9.5 feet x 18.5 feet, with the handicap spaces Staff Report - Children's Services Council (NWSP 05-018) Memorandum No PZ 05-126 Page 3 shown as 12 feet x 18.5 feet with the associated 5 foot striped aisle. Also, the applicant has provided a parking study based upon the number of employees, various functions within the building, and estimated transit ridership with a Tri-Rail station immediately adjacent to the property. The study indicates an excess of 28 parking spaces. Landscaping: The proposed pervious or "green" area of the lot would be 2.56 acres or 39.2% of the total site. The landscape plan tabular data (Sheet LS-2) indicates that 102 (59 native) trees, 168 (133 native) palms and 3,532 (1,904 native) shrubs and groundcover are being provided. Typical trees being utilized in the planting scheme include Live Oak, Laurel Oak, Tabebuia and Tibouchina, along with Royal, Sabal and Washingtonia palms. Shrub materials selected for the site include Cocoplum, Ixora, Wax Jasmine and Saw Palmetto. A Senegal Date Palm is proposed to be planted at the entrance as the background for the monument sign. A Vegetation Analysis was conducted due to the sensitive nature of the existing habitat. The analysis revealed that the western portion of the site supported the most significant understory vegetation and mid-age Sand Pines. Therefore, the applicant and the City Forester agreed the largest preserve area, approximately 130 feet in width, would be along the western edge of the property, abutting High Ridge Road. As well as preserving plant material in place, this will be the primary relocation area for those trees and shrubs that can be moved from the building pad/parking area. An additional preserve area will be designated along the east property line and will be in excess of 25 feet in width. A third area of approximately 15 feet in width will be preserved along the south property line. These areas will be set aside, protected during the construction and maintained by the owner in perpetuity. Staff recommends that a conservation easement document, acceptable to the City Attorney, be recorded for the preservation and maintenance in perpetuity of the designated preserve areas depicted on Sheet LS-1 of the landscape plan (see "Exhibit C" - Conditions of Approval). Building and Site: Building and site regulations will be fully met when staff comments are incorporated into the permit drawings. The proposed three-story office building would have a typical roof height of 45 feet, with the top of the parapet wall extending to 47 feet - 6 inches. The maximum allowed height in the PID zoning district is 45 feet, and parapet walls may extend up to five (5) additional feet above the roof deck. The floor plan (Sheets A2.1.0 & A2.2.0) shows all three floors with a lobby area and flexible layout for a variety of office needs. Sheet A3.1.1 provide an illustration of the contemporary design of the building facades, with a smooth stucco finish, recessed wall panels, geometric pattern score lines, decorative fabricated metal screens, and glass wall panels. The entry is flanked with cascading water features flowing into reflecting pools. Design: The elevation drawing (Sheets A3.1.1) shows that the building would be designed as a contemporary office building with the fac;ade improvements discussed above. The body of the building would be white in color. The accent body colors are proposed on the geometric patterned squares that comprise the fac;ade on either side of the building entries. The east side of the front and rear entry will be painted Staff Report - Children's Services Council (NWSP 05-018) Memorandum No PZ 05-126 Page 4 a palette of warm, earthtone colors in the tan family (Pittsburgh Paints - "Spanish Sherry" 329-4, "Gingerly" 329-5 and "Cappucino Bombe" 429-5). The west side of the front and rear entry will be painted a palette of cool colors in the aqua range (Pittsburgh Paints "Aqua Whisper" 256-3, "Aqua Fiesta" 356-4 and "Teal Bayou" 356-5). The applicant has provided the City with a letter of approval from the Quantum Architectural Review Committee (ARC) of the site plan and associated architectural drawings. Signage: The signage will be required to follow the Quantum Park Signage Program. The applicant has not yet received (ARC) for their signage plan. A condition of approval is the requirement that the signs comply with the Quantum Park signage program (see Exhibit "c" - Conditions of Approval). RECOMMENDATION: Staff has reviewed this request for new site plan approval. Staff recommends approval, contingent upon all comments indicated in Exhibit "c" - Conditions of Approval. The Technical Application Review Team (TART) recommends that the deficiencies identified in this exhibit be corrected on the set of plans submitted for building permit. Also, any additional conditions recommended by the Board or City Commission shall be documented accordingly in the Conditions of Approval.

S:\Planning\SHARED\WP\PROJECfS\Children's Services Council\Impact Analysis,doc CITY OF BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA INTER-OFFICE MEMORANDUM TO: Ed Breese, Principal Planner DATE: May 18,2005 FILE: NWSP 05-018 FROM: Off. John Huntington Police Department CPTED Practitioner SUBJECT: Children's Services Council REFERENCES: Site Plan ENCLOSURES: I have reviewed the impact for services for the proposed commercial/office project to be located on the north east comer of Gateway Blvd. and High Ridge Road. For the purpose of this study, a statistical analysis was completed to show the percentage of increase of police calls for service for the selected project area. A crime analysis for 2004 shows that there have been 6638 calls for service for zone 9 and represents 10% of all city-wide calls for service. Business and residential alarm calls resulted in 11.5% of calls for service to this zone and traffic related calls were 27% of calls for service. An increase of 10% in calls for service for this zone can be expected. The projected growth in Quantum Park is immense, with both multi-family, office, commercial and retail projects planned for this area. The need for additional officers in Zone 9 is evident by the high percentage of calls for service that one officer is currently handling. Service requirements for the police department will be impacted greatly and the demand for more police personnel and equipment will be needed to balance the increase in population and projected traffic. Breese, Ed From: Sent: To: Subject: Livergood, Jeffrey Friday, April 22, 20052:23 PM Breese, Ed CSC Office Building Ed, I have reviewed the shared parking analysis for the above referenced development. While I may not agree that a full 20% of employees will be lured to, or utilize Tri-Rail, I believe that the proposed 311 parking spaces will be sufficient. There is little doubt that an undetermined number of employees will use mass transit (Palm Tran or Tri Rail) and some will choose to car pool. Furthermore, there are always a small percentage of employees absent from work due to illness and vacation, Therefore, it appears that 311 parking spaces are sufficient. This, of course, assumes that the number of employees and the size of the training facility will not exceed that specified in the consultant's report. Jeff Jeffrey R.
