REVIEW COMMENTS DEPARTMENT OF DEVELOPMENT Memorandum PZ 05-122 DATE: RE: Chair & Members Community Redevelopment Agency Board --,:1 Q~ Michael Rumpf, \ \. Planning & Zoning Director Ed Breese, Principal Planner July 6, 2005 Neelam (fka Schnars) Business Center - 924 North Federal Highway (NWSP 05-022) Re-review of expired site plan TO: THROUGH: FROM: Staff has received a request for New Site Plan approval (NWSP 05-022) of the previously approved Schnars Business Center (NWSP 02- 024) at 924 North Federal Highway, The project also previously received a Time Extension (SPTE 04-003). However, the original approval has now expired, the property is under contract and the applicant would like to construct the project as previously approved, under the name Neelam Business Center. Staff has conducted a review of the proposed plans to ensure consistency with the original approved drawings. Additionally staff has taken into consideration any changes in the development regulations since original approval, for conformance purposes. Attached is the original staff report (NWSP 02-024) dated January 29, 2003 and an updated set of Conditions of Approval (COA's), based upon the re-submitted plans. Staff concludes that the site plan (NWSP 05-022) is consistent with the previously approved plan and 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. DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT MEMORANDUM NO. PZ 03-025 SITE PLAN REVIEW STAFF REPORT COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY BOARD AND CITY COMMISSION January 29, 2003 DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT Project Name/No.: Schnars Business Center /NWSP 02-024 Property Owner: Ruth R. Dolly Applicant/ Agent: Jeffrey Schnars, Schnars Engineering Corporation Location: 924 North Federal Highway Land Use/Zoning: Existing: General Commercial/C-4 (West Parcel), Mixed-Usej Single-Family R-1-A (East Parcel) Proposed: Mixed-Use (MX)jMixed-Use Low (MU-L) Type of Use: Professional offices and retail Project size: Site Area: Building Area: Floor Area: Lot Coverage: 22,838 square feet (0.52 acres) 3,388 square feet (0.08 acre) 8,754 square feet 15.4% Adjacent Uses: (see Exhibit "A" - Location Map) North - N.E. 9th Avenue right-of-way, and farther north, Boynton Beach F.O.E. #3944 lodge building, zoned C-4; South - An auto repair business (ND Auto Repair shop) zoned C-4; East Single-family neighborhood, zoned R-1-A; and West - North Federal Highway right-of-way, and farther west, a retail business (M&M Appliances), zoned C-4. Site Characteristics: The site is a vacant, rectangular-shaped lot, overgrown with grasses. The site is cleared and contains a row of Australian pines along the northeast property line. The site contains four (4) parcels (Lots 20, 21, 22, and 23) dissected by a 20-foot wide unimproved alley. On the west side of the unimproved alley, are located lots 21 through 23 with a General Commercial (GC) future land use designation and zoned General Commercial (C-4), while on the east side, is lot 20 with a Mixed Use land use classification (MX) and zoned Single-Family (R-1- A). Proposal: The developer proposes to construct a three (3) story, 8,754 square foot office j retail building located on a 0.52-acre lot (see Exhibit "B" - Proposed Site Plan). The proposed building height is 44 feet - 11 inches, which is below the 75-foot maximum allowed in the MU-L zoning district. A concurrent rezoning Page 2 Schnars Business Center - Site Plan Review Staff Report Memorandum No. PZ 03-025 request (LUAR 02-013) is proposed to bring all parcels under a single district as well as to utilize the preferable development restrictions of the MU-L district. Also being processed concurrently are a reclassification of parcels 21/ 22/ and 23 to Mixed Use, and the abandonment of a 20-foot wide alley (ABAN 02-003) (see Exhibit "C" - Conditions of Approval). Concurrency: a. Traffic- A traffic study for this project was submitted and sent to the Palm Beach County Traffic Division for their review and approval. Staff has received confirmation from Palm Beach County's Traffic Division regarding standards compliance. b. Drainage- Conceptual drainage information was provided for the City's review. The City's concurrency ordinance requires drainage certification at time of site plan approval. The Engineering Division is recommending that the review of specific drainage solutions be deferred until time of permit review, when more complete engineering documents are required. Driveways: On-site traffic circulation will consist of two (2)/ new driveway entrances measuring 24 feet wide providing ingress and egress along North Federal Highway and N.E. 9th Avenue. The entrance driveway on North Federal Highway is proposed to be located approximately 90 feet from N.E. 9th Avenue. As this driveway is proposed along a roadway classified greater than a local street, it must be separated from an intersection by not less than 180 feet. Therefore, the comments require the relocation or elimination of the driveway or receiving relief through the variance process. The second entrance drive on N.E. 9th Avenue is proposed at 120 feet from the North Federal Highway. A two-way drive aisle would provide access to the parking area located around the building, to the south and east portion ofthe property. Parking Facility: The Land Development Regulations require a minimum of one parking space per 300 square feet for an office use and one parking space per 200 square feet for a retail use. Using these ratios, the required number of parking spaces is 34. This is based on 19 spaces required for 5/726 square feet of gross floor area of office space (2nd and 3rd floors), and 15 spaces required for 3/028 square feet of retail space (1st floor). The applicant proposes a total of thirty-five (35) spaces for the proposed use, including two (2) spaces designated for handicap use along the southeast portion of the building and a 12-foot wide by 35-foot long loading area located at the southeast corner of the property, in front of the dumpster enclosure. All spaces, except the handicap space will be dimensioned nine feet by eighteen feet (9' x 18'). Landscaping: The landscaping of the site will fully meet the code requirements when staff comments are incorporated. The proposed pervious or "green" area is 6/098 square feet or 26.9% of the total site. The project perimeter landscaping includes a 7-foot wide buffer along the north (N.E. 9th Avenue) and west (N. Federal Highway) property lines. The north buffer will contain Montgomery Palm, Cabbage Palm, Guava, Red Tip Cocoplum, Imperial Blue Plumbago, Variegated Giant Liriope, and a Wax Myrtle Page 3 Schnars Business Center - Site Plan Review Staff Report Memorandum No. PZ 03-025 Hedge. The west buffer will contain Montgomery Palm trees and a Wax Myrtle hedge. A continuous Wax Myrtle hedge supplemented with Montgomery Palm Trees is proposed along the south property line. The applicant will provide the required six (6) foot masonry wall along the eastern property line of the site to separate the office/retail use from the adjacent single-family zoning district. Along the side (east) perimeter buffer, inside of the wall, the landscape plan proposes two (2) Gumbo Limbo trees, two (2) White Bird of Paradise, and a row of red Hibicus hedges. The foundation plantings around the building are extensive, exceed code requirements and further enhance the site. This planting includes Red Tip Cocoplum, Purple Bougainvillea, Imperial Blue Plumbago, Evergreen Giant Liriope, and Xanadu Philodendron. The project entrances located on the western and northern property lines will be enhanced with Wax Myrtle hedges and will contain four (4) Tibouchina Granulosa trees meeting the code requirements for signature trees. The development will be provided with the required amount of perimeter and internal landscaping as required in the Land Development Regulations, Chapter 7.5 Article II. Building and Site: Building and site regulations will be fully met when staff comments are incorporated into the permit drawings. Community Design: The applicant describes the proposed building design as a Georgian style, three-story structure with a flat tile roof (Skandia by Entegra). All fa~ades of the building have been designed and articulated with architectural elements such as shutters, molding, and score lines positively contributing to the overall appearance of both the proposed building and North Federal Highway. The exterior walls of the proposed structure will have a smooth stucco finish painted between a light yellow (Glidden White Whisper 44YY 84/042) and dark yellow scheme (Glidden Candle Wax 79/168). The accent trim; windows and doors will be white (Glidden). Additional features such as aluminum railings will be painted black. The proposed entrances of the building will have covered double doors facing North Federal Highway and the east portion of the property adjacent to the parking area. Window planter boxes are located outside the second and third floor windows above the entrances, which further enhances the building's east and west fa~ades. The building height of 44 feet - 11 inches, is below the maximum 75 feet allowed in the MU-L district. This proposed design is original, as it offers no similarities with any other buildings in the immediate area. Staff support this building design as proposed because it will set higher standards for future development along Federal Highway and is consistent with the underlying concept of the new MU-L zoning district. Signage: Three (3) wall signs measuring 21 square feet each are proposed on the west elevation, fronting on North Federal Highway. A freestanding monument sign is proposed along North Federal Highway measuring seven feet and three inches (7'-3'') high by eight feet and eight inches (8'-8'') wide with the property address located on top. It will depict the name of the building's tenants. The monument sign will receive color and texture treatments similar to those of the Page 4 Schnars Business Center - Site Plan Review Staff Report Memorandum No. PZ 03-025 building. The base of the sign will be enhanced with Yellow Lantana shrubs. The proposed wall signs and the freestanding sign comply with sign standards including maximum sign area and height as set forth in the Land Development Regulations, Chapter 21. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that this site plan request be approved, subject to the comments included in Exhibit "C" - Conditions of Approval. The Technical Review Committee (TRC) recommends that the deficiencies identified in this exhibit be corrected on the set of plans submitted for building permit. xc: Central File S:\Planning\SHARED\WP\PROJECfS\Schnars Business Center\NWSP 02-024\Staff report.doc '.

Uw, nVU7 &1 1 FIRE & LIFE SAFETY DIVISION TO: Ed Breese, Principal Planner , FROM: Rodger W. Kemmer, Deputy Chief/Fire Marshal DATE: June 13, 2005 SUBJECT: NWSP 05-022 NWSP 05-007 NWSP 05-021 Schnars Business Center Chow Hut Gulfstream Lumber Traffic Congestion and population density is a concern in this area. This situation will get worse as the density increases. Pursuit of traffic light pre- emption is essential as a remedy. To meet the increased demand additional resources are required such as personnel, apparatus, and equipment. It is imperative that Fire Station #5 be expedited to insure adequate service delivery levels and effective response times. This situation also increases the potential for mass causality events when large numbers of people occupy confined areas. This is becoming more prevalent in many areas of the city. 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 decreased. 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 future 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.

CITY OF BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA INTER-OFFICE MEMORANDUM TO: Ed Breese, Principal Planner DATE: June 8, 2005 FILE: NWSP 05-022 FROM: Off. John Huntington Police Department CPTED Practitioner SUBJECT: Schnars Business Center REFERENCES: Site Plan ENCLOSURES: I have reviewed the impact for services for the proposed commercial/office project (924 N. Federal Highway) to be located on the south east comer of NE 9 Ave. and N. Federal Highway. 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 14,011 calls for service for zone 3 and represents 20.6% of all calls for service. Although this project in itself may not have a direct impact on department service requirements, the need for an additional officer in Zone 3 is evident by the high percentage of calls for service that one officer is currently handling. Due to new development throughout the city, all city services will be affected. An increase of 12% of total calls for service can be expected due to proposed city wide growth. Rivers, Jody To: Subject: Breese, Ed; Coale, Sherie Site Plan Review - Neeman Business Center Recreation and Parks has the following comments: 1. All shade trees and palms on the Plant Lists must be listed in the description as a minimum of 12' -14' height, and 3" diameter at DBH (4.5' off the ground). The height of the trees maybe larger than 12'-14' to meet the 3" diameter requirement; or any clear wood/booted wood specifications. [Environmental Regulations, Chapter 7,5, Article II Sec. 5.C.2.] 2. The landscape planting details should include a line indicating where the diameter at DBH will be measured at time of planting and inspection. 3, There is no irrigation system design included with the plans. The irrigation design should be low-flow for water conservation, City water cannot be used for landscape improvements. In the design, all shade trees and palms should receive irrigation from a bubbler source. Environmental Regulations, Chapter 7.5, Article II Sec. 5.C.2]. 4. Note on plan that all shrubs and hedges are required to be at minimum 24 inches in height, 24 inches in spread, and planted with tip-to-tip spacing measured immediately after planting to adequately cover the planted areas on the site (Chapter 7.5, Article II, Section 5.CA) 5. There is no scale on the plan. 6. It is recommended that a different tree other than an Oak be used in the small planting areas due to problems encountered during last year's hurricane. 7. While not prohibited, Guava trees are not recommended as they are on Palm Beach County's Invasive Species list. Please subsitute another species. 8. There appears to be a wall of sorts between the residential property and the development; however, there are no details. It is recommended that a concrete wall be erected to the highest allowable height. jOvtU RLver.s Parks Superintendent City of Boynton Beach 100 E, Boynton Beach Blvd. Boynton Beach, FL 33425 (561) 742-6226 (561) 742-6233 (fax) 1
