SERIES S6
SPECIFICATIONS
APPLICATION: The S6 Series employs an array offaceted specular
reflector segments allowing a wide choice of reflector configurations. The
small reflector depth permits a more compact fixture body for each lamp
wattage siz~. The segmented design reflector offers even, efficient light
distribution while avoiding hot spots beneath the units and maintaining
adequate light between fixtures. The S6 provides precise, well-shielded
lighting for parking lots, auto dealerships, outdoor areas, walks and roads.
LAMP CHOICES: Available in Metal Halide, Pulse-Start Metal Halide or High
Pressure Sodium the S6 fixture generally uses a horizontal lamp position
and a flat glass cover. Additional choices are available with a verticaflv
mounted lamp and a clear convex lens with high efficiency and
exceptionally low brightness beneath the unit.
HOUSING: The fixture housing is fabricated from 0.063" aluminum and is
available in three sizes: Small, Medium and Large. Corners are welded and
finished to produce a clean, sharp appearance while increasing housing
strength and ensuring weathertight construction. A powder-coated finish
is available in Dark Bronze, Black or White.
REFLECTOR: The segmented reflector is formed with a combination of
smooth and pebbled bright aluminum surfaces, all highly polished and
anodized. The reflector is fully rotatable in 900 increments. Available light
distribution patterns with the standard horizontal lamp are IES Type I
Medium (1M), III Medium (3M), V Quadrate (5Q) and Forward Throw (FT).
Vertical lamps distributions are IES Type II (V2), IES Type III (V3), IES Type
V symmetrical (VS) and Forward Throw (VF).
LENS: Clear, flat tempered glass double sealed into a hinged aluminum
door frame. Captive quarter-turn fasteners allow easy lamp replacement.
Large units with vertical lamp require a tempered sag glass lens. The sag
lens is formed from clear tempered glass.
BALLAST: The S6 incorporates a high power factor C.W.A. or a high power
factor lead circuit type dependent upon required lamp. The ballast
assembly is mounted to a housing reinforcement plate, providing a heat
sink for long ballast life.
LAMPHOLDER: Glazed porcelain socket features spring loaded contacts.
200.C SF2 leads and is pulse rated to 4KV.
MOUNTING: Standard units are provided with an extruded aluminum arm
for pOle mounting. Optional strut or yoke mounting is available with a
slipfitter assembly to fit a 2-3/8" 0.0. tenon. A wall mounting bracket may
be ordered with arm mounted units. Surface mounting is available for
parking- garage applications. For this the small unit is recommended. A
swing down wiring box is available for this application.

Review Comments
New Site Plan - 1 st Review
Grove Plaza Parcel B
File No. NWSP 05-012
The above referenced Site Plans, received on March 14, 2005, 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, Section 10-26 (a).
PUBLIC WORKS - TRAFFIC
2. Provide a traffic analysis and notice of concurrency (Traffic Performance Standards Review) from
Palm Beach County Traffic Engineering.
3. 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); include a
pavement message in yellow indicating "No Parking - Loading Zone". See City Standard Drawings
"K" Series for striping details.
ENGINEERING
4. All comments requiring changes and/or corrections to the plans shall be reflected on all appropriate
sheets.
5. 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.
6. Show proposed site lighting on the Civil and Landscape plans (LOR, Chapter 4, Section 7.B.4.) The
lighting design shall provide a minimum average light level of one foot-candle. On the Lighting Plan,
specify that the light poles shall withstand a 140 MPH wind load (LOR, Chapter 23, Article II, Section
A.1.a and Florida Building Code). Provide a note that the fixtures shall be operated by photo-

electrical control and are to remain on until 2:00 a.m. (LOR, Chapter 23, Article II, Section A.1.a.)
Include pole wind loading, and pole details in conformance with the LOR, Chapter 6, Article IV,
Section 11, Chapter 23, Article I, Section 5.B.7 and Chapter 23, Article II, Section A on the Lighting
Plan. Lighting shall be directed away from any residential uses (LOR, Chapter 2, Section 4.N.7). If
possible please provide photometries 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!
7. 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).
8. Show sight triangles on the Landscape plans (LOR, Chapter 7.5, Article II, Section 5.H.) Use a 35-ft.
sight triangle at the driveways onto the interior connector roadways.
9. Revise the Landscape Plan to indicate unobstructed cross-visibility at a level between 2.5' and 8'
above the pavement (LOR, Chapter 7.5, Article II, Section 5.H.).
10. Provide an engineer's certification on the Drainage Plan as specified in LOR, Chapter 4, Section
7.F.2.
11. 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.
12. 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
13. 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.
14. 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 LOR, 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.
15. Palm Beach County Health Department permits may not be required for the water and sewer
systems serving this project (CODE, Section 26-12).

16. 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)).
17. 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.
18. Comprehensive Plan Policy 3.C.3.4. requires the conservation of potable water. As other sources
are readily available City water shall not be allowed for irrigation.
19. 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).
20. 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.
21. 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.
22. The Utility Plan depicts a 2-in. tapping sleeve & valve off the 12-in. water main. This will not be
permitted. The minimum size tap shall be 4-in. ductile iron.
23. The developer has proposed 6 individual meters for this office building. This is not a usual
configuration. Please explain how the individual suites will be plumbed.
24. It is recommended that the developer reconfigure the service tap as follows: tap off the 4-in. line
upstream of the fire line, then add a valve. The Siamese connection should be placed downstream
of the DDCV.
25. Appropriate backflow preventer(s) 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.
26. The developer has proposed 6 individual sanitary services tied into a service lateral. As this is a
private sanitary sewer system this configuration will be allowed, but is not recommended.
27. 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.

PLANNING AND ZONING
MEMORANDUM
TO: Sherie Coale, Senior Office Assistant
FROM: Ed Breese, Principal Planner
DATE: March 24,2005
SUBJECT: Grove Plaza Parcel B (NWSP 05-012)
Please include the following comments in the TRC review of the above-mentioned
proj ect:
1. Provide paint swatches with manufacturer name and color name and number at
the Technical Review Committee meeting.
2. The elevation pages shall include the exterior finish, paint manufacturer's names
and color codes.
3. Provide a colored elevation drawing (clipped, not glued) at or before the TRC
meeting.
4. Provide awning and tile details and color and samples of each at or prior to TRC
meeting.
5. All signage must be approved concurrent with the Site Plan submittal or an
additional review by Staff, Board and City Commission will be required solely for
the signage. Provide font size, style and color as well as calculation of square
footage of proposed, typical wall signage.
6. A single sign style (such as cabinet, channel. reverse channel) shall be used for
wall signage.
7. The detail of the freestanding monument sign does not indicate colors of the
proposed sign or the color and size of the lettering to be place upon it. This is
required in order to determine compliance with the Design Guidelines of the
Grove Plaza Master Plan. The base of the monument shall be enhanced with
colorful groundcover plants and a minimum of two (2) colorful shrub species.
Additionally, the numerical address must be place prominently in the top portion
of the sign, utilizing six (6) inch letters.
8. Provide a traffic analysis and notice of concurrency (Traffic Performance
Standards Review) from Palm Beach County Traffic Engineering. A letter of
approval from Palm Beach County Traffic Engineering Division regarding the
conformance with the Traffic Performance Standards will be required prior to
issuing a permit for this project.
9. The proposed freestanding outdoor lighting fixtures shall be consistent with the
Lighting Design Guidelines of the Grove Plaza Master Plan and in accordance
with the designs utilized in the development of the other parcels within Grove
Plaza. The specifications and detail drawing should be provided in this set of
drawings.
10. No photometric plan was provided for review and comment. Please provide this
plan at or before the TRC meeting.
II. Fifty percent (50%) of all site landscape materials must be native species. On the
landscape plan plant list indicate the native species by trees, shrubs and
groundcovers and tabulate the amount of native material in each category to
ensure each meets the 50% requirement.
12. On the landscape plan, ensure that the plant quantities match between the tabular
data and the graphic illustration.
13. A note on the landscape plan indicates that unobstructed cross-visibility shall be
maintained at a level of two and one half (2 112) feet and six (6) feet above the
pavement, while a note further down on the sheet indicates (2 112) and (8). The
City requirement is eight (8) feet instead of six (6). Please remove the note
indicating 6 feet.
14. The landscape buffer along Hypoluxo Road shall contain a combination of
colorful groundcover plants and a minimum of two (2) colorful shrub species
planted in a continuous row or in clusters spaced no greater than twenty (20) feet
apart, beginning at the project entrance. The focus of this landscape material will
be to create an aesthetically pleasing buffer from Hypoluxo Road. Utilization of
the same plant materials as specified on the previous parcels makes sense from a
uniformity standpoint.
15. The front landscape buffer should have a berm to be consistent with the Grove
Plaza Master Plan Guidelines. The City Forester will review and oversee the
dimensions and installation of the earthen berm. The plant material proposed
within the front landscape buffer should be planted both on the top and street side
of the berm. A detail drawing depicting the berm and plantings should be
submitted, as well as a section view from Hypoluxo to the building.
16. Staff recommends the metal canopies depicted over the storefront entries be
changed to barrel tile canopies, for consistency with the Grove Plaza Master Plan
Guidelines.
17. The adopted Master Plan for Grove Plaza limits all buildings to single story. The
Master Plan would have to be modified to accommodate this design.
18. The Site Plan (A-100) indicates the square footage to be 14,291, while the Master
Plan indicates 14,826. Additionally, the Site Plan depicts 68 parking spaces, while
the Master Plan indicates 70. Please make sure all plans and sheets are in
agreement.
19. The Landscape Plan (L-I), Paving & Drainage Plan (Sheet 2 of 10), and Water &
Sewer Plan (Sheet 4 of 10) also depict the building at 14,826 square feet, with 70
parking spaces. The landscape island with concrete access walk on the south side
of the building is not depicted on these plans, like on the Site Plan (A-IOO).
20. Increase the number and height of the Montgomery Palms on the south side of the
building to better soften the massing of the structure facing residential property.
Grouping and staggering of the heights may provide the desired effect.
21. All hedge material shall be planted at a minimum of 24" in height, 24" on center
with a 24" spread. Branches are required to be touching to form a continuous
hedge at the time of planting.
22. Mulch shall be installed at a depth of 3 inches and shall be other than cypress.

I HAVE A QUESTION. IS IT POSSIBLE THAT WHEN THESE PLANS ARE SUBMITTED, WE INCLUDE A FIRE

LOCATIONS, VEHICLE ACCESS TO THE ROAD(S) LEADING TO THE PROJECT AND IF A FIRE SPRINKLER WILL
BE REQUIRED, SHOW THE LOCATION OF THE FIRE DEPARTMENT CONNECTION.
IF THIS IS POSSIBLE IT WOULD HELP EXPEDITE THESE PLANS AND ALL OTHERS. I REALIZE THAT THE
