RE:
As requested, the following responds to questions and issues raised by Ms. Schrader as
communicated by the City Manager in his e-mail to you and Jim Cherof dated August 24th. Teach
number and paragraph coincides with the outline in Mr. Bressner's e-mail.
1. Ordinances 04-007 and 05-004 effectuate recent changes in process including movement of
the responsibility for notifying property owners from the city to the applicant. The ordinance is
fairly brief in its description of what is to be included in the notice, and that it is to be sent by
first class mail no less than 10 days prior to the hearing. To maintain some standard format,
staff has proVided sample notices for applicants to use in mailings. However, our regulations
only require the use of a map in ads for rezonings.
2. The above-described ordinances only require that the applicant provide the city with an
affidavit as proof of compliance with notification procedures, a photograph of the sign placed
on the subject property, and name/address of each property owner to whom the notice was
mailed. This is to be provided to the City Clerk; however, they are frequently delivered to this
office. The applicant often provides the city with the tax map showing the 400 foot radius but
as this can be proVided up to the date of the hearing, it is often too late to check for accuracy.
Staff understands that with the switch in responsibility to the applicant, the applicant is also
responsible for ensuring accuracy.
3. City staff reviewed the list of property owners and 400 foot radius, and identified errors,
following an inquiry from another resident in Nautica Sound who claimed they did not receive
notice. This realization occurred following the visit from Ms. Schrader on June 27th. Staff would
always use every chance available to properly inform the public once such information is
confirmed.
4. I think the most notable fact regarding customer service is that Ms. Schrader, upon her
unexpected visits and requests for files, was provided each file requested. Except when an
archive file was requested, which required time for staff research, staff reacted immediately by
providing her with the requested files for inspection. If anything "unfriendly" was sensed by
Ms. Schrader, 1) it was not communicated to any staff member or me; and 2) any less than
cordial interaction may have resulted from staff mUlti-tasking and trying to minimize time with
her to allow quick return to current obligations and deadlines. Given that staff could have
asked that a publiC information request be submitted for each visit and inquiry to optimize
efficiency, it does not appear that the customer service experienced warrants criticism.
It was the original intent to require coordination with the master association, in addition to the
standard property owner notices to be mailed. However, our regulations do not state that the
application must be approved or endorsed by anyone other than the owner and/or governing
body over the subject property. Perhaps if the amendment was deemed "major", requiring a
new zoning application to be processed, it would bring a governing body into the process
other than the subject property owner. However, that section of the code (Chapter 2, Sect.
9(3)) only indicates that the owners of not less than fifty-one percent of the "area involved" in
the amendment can request an amendment, but does not define "involved". Many master plan
modifications have been processed that changed setbacks for a tract or plat of a greater PUD,
such as Boynton Lakes. The individual HOAs for the respective tracts or plats filed the
applications, as the code is interpreted to allow. Of course our greater concern is that there is
proper ownership/unified control, and that the newly created improvements will be under
maintenance obligation, which will be verified at time of platting and/or permit review. The
property owner has indicated preliminarily that the property will continue to be subject to all
maintenance requirements of record including The Meadows 300 Declaration of Covenants and
Restrictions (the "Master Declaration"), as recorded in Official Records Book 4048, Page 592 of
the Public Records of Palm Beach County, as amended from time to time.
6. See response above under #5. Further, the capacity of the PUD was confirmed considering the
original approval and subsequent amendments.
Finally, the agent and property owner have considered our inquiry about pOSSible redesign. A
written response was received from Mr. Cohen on August 31, 2006 (see attachment). In
summary, the owner identified the primary impacts and design challenges of such a redesign,
namely the dissection of the lake and reduction in its retention capability by fifty (500/0) percent.
Although discussed at a meeting with the agent on August 22, 2006, the written response
included no mention of impacts on project costs nor the additional units required to offset this
increase.

Subject: Meeting with Diane Schrader Re: Meadows
This afternoon the Mayor and I met with Ms. Schrader to discuss her concerns with the public process associated
with this land use case. She resides at 7164 Chesapeake Circle (phone number 561-432-4358 - home or 561-
670-8157 - cell). She had a lot of concerns and observations which I will recap with questions for staff:
1. Content of the legal notice mailed to adjoining property by developer representative: She showed us the
notice and the envelope that was used to mail out the hearing notice. It was mailed to the homes without a
return address and the notice was I believe a copy of the City's legal notice was either sent out or adapted
by the developer. I have several questions: First, can we require the developer to include a return
address on their mailings? Second can we require or provide a more detailed explanation of the matter
being requested? Third, can we either provide or require a map that clearly shows the location of the
subject property and the adjoining properties including streets and lots or better an aerial with streets and
lots?
2. Ms. Schrader advised us that this was the second time around for this development because the notice for
the June 27th P&D meeting was found to be deficient by a resident. What is our procedure to verify proper
service?
3. At the July 25th P&D meeting, Ms. Schrader stated that she and residents objecting to the proposal felt she
was treated poorly or in a condescending manner by the Chair and some members of the P&D Board. She
also was upset that Ed Breese never informed her of the fact that there was an abortive P&D Board review
on June 27th when she came in to talk about the matter following receipt of the notice for the July 25th P&D
meeting. She said staff should have divulged this matter as it would have helped them prepare for the July
25 P&D meeting. This would have allowed the residents to remind P&D that while P&D was looking at the
issue a second time around, that the residents were not aware of the first review and that P&D needed to
take time to review the project rather than rushing it through. Bottom line, Ms. Schrader felt staff's
omission of this critical detail undermined the credibility of staff in the minds of the neighborhood. If an
error had been made, it should have been divulged to the residents. We can't control the conduct or the
perception of conduct of the P&D Board but staff support issues are something we can address.
4. Ms. Schrader commented on customer service in the Planning Department and felt that her requests for
information were handled begrudgingly. This was an observation of customer service.
5. She showed us a note from the 1 0/11/05 TART meeting from Ed Breese that the total number of units for
parcels G&H for the Meadows PUD had been built or allocated and that any additional units as proposed
by the developer would require approval by the Meadows POA. Ms. Schrader said there was no evidence
in the file of Meadow's POA review and approval of the additional units. Was this in fact a requirement and
was it done?
6. How did the developer assert their right to build the additional units? What did we base our review on to
concur with their ability to amend the PUD?
In a related matter, we explained that staff was working with the developer to possibly "flip" the development but
there were possible issues related to:
a. Lake Configuration.
b. Fact that of the 21 homes in Nautica Sound abutting the property, four on the south side would still be
impacted by a roadway as the road entered the area. Five homes on the north end would be impacted by
a cui de sac leaving the 15 homes in the middle with less impact.
c. Whether the City could grant additional units above the requested number without triggering a major site
plan modification.
She understood that we were working on this and that there were no guarantees of any further changes.

Re: Proposed 34-unit Townhome Community at the Meadows in Boynton Beach,
Florida (the "Project")
Dear Mr. Rumpf;
Concerning the City of Boynton Beach (the "City") requirements for property
maintenance in connection with obtaining the City's approval of the Project, the Project
is and will continue to be subject to all restrictions of record, including The Meadows 300
Declaration of Covenants and Restrictions (the "Master Declaration") recorded at Official
Records Book 4048, Page 592 of the Public Records of Palm Beach County, as amended
from time to time.
The Master Declaration contains certain restnctlOns and obligations regarding
maintenance of those common areas that serve both the existing condominium and the
Project and the Project will be required to comply with these and all other applicable
terms of the Master Declaration.
The Project will have its own homeowner's association that will provide for maintenance
of the common property within the Project (not being maintained by the Master
Association) that will become effective upon the approval and recording of the
homeowner's association governing documents.
Sincerely,
Jonathan Agus, Member

David, Thanks for following up. We've reviewed the document and find it acceptable for
this stage. We may only generate a further comment that again states the requirment
that common areas be maintained, and that owners documents ultimately be submitted
prior to permitting that for review for compliance.

Site Characteristic: According to the survey, the subject site is currently developed with only a 3.12-
acre lake and a portion of the pathway that borders the lake and continues onto
Tract G (Meadows on the Green Condominiums). Also, a bermed buffer easement
runs along the west side of the parcel abutting Nautica Sound PUD, along with a
10-foot wide FPL easement. The highest elevation is a point 17.79 feet above sea
level, located near the northeast corner of the property.

BACKGROUND
Mr. Steven Cohen, agent for Boynton Meadows LLC, proposes to develop the
subject property with 34 townhouse dwelling units. Approval of this project is
contingent upon the approval of the corresponding request for Master Plan
Modification of the Meadows PUD (see Exhibit "C" - Conditions of Approval). The
project also involves the slight reconfiguration of the lake and pathway amenities
and would be built in one (1) phase.
ANALYSIS
A traffic statement was sent to the Palm Beach County Traffic Division for
concurrency review in order to ensure an adequate level of service. The City
received a letter from Palm Beach County Traffic Division, dated June 7, 2006,
indicating that the project is part of a pre 1990 approved PUD, and therefore meets
the Traffic Performance Standards of Palm Beach County.
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).
No confirmation of school concurrency has yet been received from the School
District of Palm Beach County. Therefore, no building permits may be issued until
the School District of Palm Beach County confirms that adequate capacity exists to
accommodate the proposed 34 dwelling units (see Exhibit "C" - Conditions of
Approval).
The site plan (Sheet A1.2) shows that one (1) point of ingress / egress is proposed
at the southwest corner of the property, running south through the Meadows on
Staff Report - Meadows Townhomes (NWSP 05-032)
Memorandum No PZ 06-129

the Green Condominiums and connecting to a short drive running west off of
Meadows Boulevard. This entrance / exit, when scaled from the plans, appears to
be approximately 44 feet in width, with four (4) 10 foot lanes and a landscape
island/median between. This drive is proposed to be gated from the condominium
complex immediately to the south.
Parking Facility: The project consists of three (3) bedroom dwelling units, which require two (2)
parking spaces per unit. The project proposes 34 residential units and therefore,
would require 68 parking spaces. The applicant has provided 85 parking spaces, or
an excess of 17 spaces. The parking is proposed along the drive aisle in front of
each building. Parking spaces are dimensioned 9.5' X 18.5', with a drive aisle
dimension of 25 '.
Landscaping: According to the site plan tabular data (Sheet A1.2), the proposed pervious area
would total 37.11% of the site. Additionally, 3.12 acres of the subject property
would be set aside for the existing lake centrally located on the parcel. The
landscape data (Sheet LP-2) indicates that 73% of the shade and palm trees would
be native. The landscape data indicates that 51% of the shrubs would also be
native. The plan shows that a bermed landscape buffer 18-feet in width exists on
the west perimeter of the property, abutting Nautica Sound PUD. This berm is
planted with areca palms in an effort to form a solid landscape buffer. Staff
recommends that any gaps within the existing buffer, due to missing or damaged
landscape material, be planted with areca palms similar in size, to re-establish the
landscape buffer (see Exhibit "c" - Conditions of Approval). A five (5) foot
landscape buffer is proposed along the north property line abutting Freedom
Shores Elementary School. The landscape plan indicates that the north buffer
would also contain areca palms to be planted at a height between 5 and 6 feet,
and the east buffer along the school is designed to vary in width to follow the
walking path around the lake and would contain Live Oak, Gumbo Limbo and
Orange Geiger trees, as well as Sabal palms. The south buffer abutting the
Meadow on the Green condominium complex is proposed to be planted with
Gumbo Limbo and Yellow Elder trees.
The typical landscape design around the townhome buildings consists of silver
buttonwood, firebush, and myrsine material/foundation plantings, thryallis,
fakahatchee grass and arbicola accent shrubs, along with Orange Geiger and Silver
Buttonwood trees and Alexander and Sabal palm trees.
Building and Site: The PUD regulations require that perimeter buffers and setbacks within PUDs must
mirror those in abutting development to ensure adequate separation between
buildings. The building setbacks in the Nautica Sound Planned Unit Development
to the west were approved with rear setbacks of 15 feet abutting the proposed
Meadows Townhomes parcel. As mentioned earlier, there is an existing 18 foot
bermed landscape buffer on the proposed town home parcel adjacent to Nautica
Sound. The closest any of the town home units are proposed to Nautica Sound's
east property line is 20' - 5", at the northwest corner of the townhouse property,
with the aforementioned landscape berm in between. At the northeast corner, the
town homes would be setback 28' - 8" from the Freedom Shores Elementary School

property line. Finally, at the south end of the property, the town homes are
proposed to be in excess of 110 feet from the first condominium building in the
Meadows on the Green complex.
The seven (7) townhome buildings, totaling 34 units, are arranged around the lake
in clusters of four (4) and six (6) units. The elevations show that the mean height
of the two (2) story homes measures to 25 feet tall and the peak of the roof would
be 31 feet - two (2) inches tall, well below the maximum height allowed in the PUD
zoning district of 45 feet. The project proposes the townhouse units as three (3)
bedroom/2.5 bath, with air-conditioned living areas ranging between 1.638 and
1,665 square feet.
Architecturally, the design of the buildings would probably be considered
"contemporary", with a blend of "colonial-style" features. The town homes would be
two (2) stories tall, with a hip/gable roof combination. The proposed roofing
material would be a Certainteed shingle roof tile called "Fieldstone", which has the
appearance of a variety of umber earthtones. The elevations show that the
exterior finish of the walls would be textured stucco. The applicant is proposing
the following colors: The lower portion of the exterior wall area would be painted a
medium tan (Benjamin Moore - Beeswax #2157-40). The body of the wall area,
which contains the greatest portion of mass, would be painted a light tan color
(Benjamin Moore - Crisp Straw #2157-50). The accent moldings and fascia would
be a cream color (Benjamin Moore - Tudor Cream #2157-60). The columns and
decorative moldings at each doorway and decorative louvers would be painted an
ivory white color (Benjamin Moore - Ivory Tower#2157-70). Lastly, the doors,
shutters and decorative railings would be a muted green color (Benjamin Moore -
Aegean Teal #2136-40).
The applicant is proposing a monument sign, approximately four (4) foot tall by
eight foot in width, painted to match the townhouse wall colors, and black lettering.
The sign is proposed in the landscape island at the gated entrance to the site.
RECOMMENDATION:
The Technical Review Committee (TRC) has reviewed this request for new site plan approval. Staff
recommends approval of the site plan, subject to approval of the associated master plan modification
(MPMD 05-013) and satisfying all comments 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.

2. Add signage identifying resident and visitor lanes.
3. Identify call box location on plans.
ENGINEERING DIVISION
Comments:
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 Technical Advisory
Review Team (TART) process does not ensure that additional comments
may not be generated by the Commission and at permit review.
6. Upon satisfactory Commission approval of the Site Plan, the applicant shall
enter the plat process through the City's Engineering Division. A
preliminary plat application may be initiated during the Site Plan review to
expedite issuance of the Land Development Permit.
7. Provide written and graphic scales on all sheets. (Landscape Plans)
8. Photometric plans does not agree with Landscape, Site and Civil plans for
light pole locations - please correct. Staff recommends increasing the
number of poles and reducing lighting intensity to provide overall lighting
levels closer to I-foot candle average. Most of the site is well in excess of
the 1 foot candle required, with "hot spots" of 10 foot candles plus in the
immediate vicinity of proposed light pole locations.
9. Revise Landscape plan to reflect site plan changes (i.e. dumpster enclosure
orientation, light pole locations, etc.).
10. Full Drainage Plans, including drainage calculations, in accordance with the
LDR, Chapter 6, Article N, Section 5 will be required at the time of
permitting.

11. 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
Comments:
12. Please provide a detailed time line 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. Need
dates prior to Planning & Development Board meeting.
13. All utility easements shall be shown on the 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. Relocate light poles and canopy trees
out of utility easements.
14. Palm Beach County Health Department permits will be required for the
water and sewer systems serving this project (CODE, Section 26-12).
15. 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)), at the time of permitting.
16. 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.
17. 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.
18. Water and sewer lines to be owned and operated by the City shall be
COA

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). Easement shall be centered on the sanitary sewer
main and width shall be determined by using two (2) times the depth of the
sewer line. Easement widths will be finalized at the time of platting and
permitting.

Dear Mr. Rumpf:
I'm enclosing a copy of a letter dated May 22, 2006 from Mr. Masoud Atefi of Palm
Beach County staff relative to our Traffic Statement (also attached) that was submitted
to ascertain if a right turn lane would be warranted for the final 34 dwelling units of the
Meadows Townhomes Project.
The intent of the letter was to address only the need for a right turn lane into the project
based on the latest County standard. I cannot ascertain why the letter was sent to Palm
Beach County to address the County Traffic Performance Standard. As noted in our May
16, 2006 letter the project is expected to generate only 17 PM peek hour inbound trips
and as such the inclusion of a right turn lane is not warranted in accordance with the
Palm Beach County Land Development Designs Standards Manual.
I apologize for any confusion in this matter and I hope this provides further clarification
relative to the need for the proposed right turn lane. As always should you have any
questions regarding this matter please feel free to contact me directly.

TRAFFIC PERFORMANCE STANDARDS REVIEW
Dear Michael:
The Palm Beach County Traffic Division has reviewed the traffic statement for the
proposed residential project entitled; Meadows Town-homes, pursuant to the Traffic
Performance Standards in Article 12 of the Palm Beach County Land Development
Code. The project is summarized as follows:
Location:
Municipality:

N/A
Based on our review, the Traffic Division has the following comments:
· It is not clear if the statement is a request for a TPS concurrency letter. If so,
then a traffic study is required.
. Use a daily trip generation rate of 7/DU, as required by the County.
· Provide a build-out date.
· Provide the exact site location, as well as information on the existing uses.
If you have any questions regarding this determination, please contact me at 684-4030.

PALM BEACH COUNTY, FLORIDA
TINTER ASSOCIATES, INC. PROJECT NO. 06-2025
Dear Mr. Patel:
This letter will serve as a Trip Generation Statement for the development of 34
townhomes to be located in the general area of Hypoluxo Road and Congress Avenue in
central Palm Beach County, Florida. The office of Tinter Associates, Inc. has been
retained to analyze the need for a right turn lane into the project that will serve only the
proposed 34 dwelling units.
In order to estimate the potential trip generation activity from the proposed site, Palm
Beach County provides trip generation rates in conjunction with the Institute of
Transportation Engineers (ITE} Trip Generation manual, ih Edition. In accordance with
the TPS Ordinance, only peak hour trip generation is considered. For informational
purposes, AM peak hour and daily trip generation activity is also shown. As noted from
Table 1, the proposed project is expected to generate 25 PM peak hour trips of which 17
will be inbound and 8 will be outbound.
The Palm Beach County Land Development Deskm Standards Manual mandates the
inclusion of a right turn lane when there is at least 75 right turns inbound during the peak
hour. Of course this is not the case and as such a right turn lane is not warranted.
Should you have any questions regarding this matter or need further information, please
feel free to contact me directly.

UTILITIES
Comments:
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 time line 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. 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.

service to the building, and the fire sprinkler line if there is one, in
accordance with the CODE, Section 26-207.
31. The LDR, Chapter 3, Article IV, Section 3(0) requires Master Plans to
show all utilities on or adjacent to the proposed 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.
32. 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.
33. An existing 12-inch water main along the north property line has been
extended eastward from the Nautica Sound development to service the
existing Freedom Shores Elementary School and the Calvary Chapel
Church properties located to the east of this proposed development is
available for connection to provide a loop. The exact location of this water
main will be required of the applicant, as apparent location (from adjacent
projects) could effect the location of the proposed 4-unit townhouse
building located at the northernmost point of the proposed development.
The Utilities Department will require a tie-in into this existing 12-inch water
main at the closest point to the proposed 8-inch water main (proposed blow-
off stub will have to be reconfigured) in order to provide sufficient water
flow and pressure to meet the City Code requirements regarding fire flows
noted above.

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 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.
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 LOR, Chapter
6, Article IV, Section 16, or the requirement imposed by insurance underwriters, whichever is greater
(CODE, Section 26-16(b)).
23. The LOR, 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. 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.
26. 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).

27. 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.
28. 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.
29. PVC material not permitted on the City's water system. All lines shall be DIP.
30. 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 the CODE, Section 26-207.
31. The LDR, Chapter 3, Article IV, Section 3(0) requires Master Plans to show all utilities on or adjacent
to the proposed 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.
32. 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.
33. An existing 12-inch water main along the north property line has been extended eastward from the
Nautica Sound development to service the existing Freedom Shores Elementary School and the
Calvary Chapel Church properties located to the east of this proposed development is available for
connection to provide a loop. The exact location of this water main will be required of the applicant,
as apparent location (from adjacent projects) could effect the location of the proposed 4-unit
townhouse building located at the northernmost point of the proposed development. The Utilities
Department will require a tie-in into this existing 12-inch water main at the closest point to the
proposed 8-inch water main (proposed blow-off stub will have to be reconfigured) in order to provide
sufficient water flow and pressure to meet the City Code requirements regarding fire flows noted
above.
34. Also available at the Freedom Shores Elementary School is a gravity system at sufficient depth to
allow a connection from the system proposed for the Meadows Townhomes, eliminating the need for
a lift station.
35. As-built information for the water and sewer systems within the Freedom Shores Elementary School
are available upon request from the Utilities Department located at the intersection of Woolbright
Road and Seacrest Blvd.
36. 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) and will be
reviewed at the time of construction permit application.

MEMORANDUM
As part of the City's concurrency requirements, the City Commission directed the Planning & Zoning
Division to report whether or not the City could maintain an adequate level of service with current
infrastructure and / or staffing levels in order to support the proposed development.
Plans for the above-mentioned project have been forwarded to your department's representative
for their technical review and comment. We are requesting that you review the proposed project for
anticipated impacts to your department's level of service (as requested by the City Commission) and
provide us with your comments for direct insertion into our staff report. In the past, you have sent
us something that indicates your current staff / infrastructure would either be able to support the
proposed project or what would be required to meet the adopted level of service. Please respond
no later than 2 weeks from today. Also, any recommendations that you believe that would
enhance the project are certainly welcomed. I thank you for your assistance in this matter. Should
you have any questions regarding the requested information, please do not hesitate to call me at
742-6260.

FROM:
SUBJECT: Meadows Townhouses
REFERENCES: Impacts of Proposed Site Plan Upon
Police Services
ENCLOSURES:
Meadows Townhomes is planned for 34 residential town homes. For the purpose of this analysis, a similar
project was used as a comparison. Also, 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 7,779 calls for service for zone 10 and represents 11.4%
of total calls for service. An increase of 6% of calls for service in Zone 10 can be expected due to the proposed
growth. One additional officer will be needed as 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 non residential traffic along the corridors of Congress A venue, Hypoluxo Road and
Lawrence Road.
The city's population had increased 28.4 % from 1990 - 2000. Total police calls for service have increased
66.8 % from 1990 - 2000. With the projected development throughout the city, an estimated 30% increase in
population can be expected. A 15% increase in total calls for service is expected due to this current growth.

RE: Meadows Townhomes
Dear Mr. Cohen,
This is to advise you that we have located an older version of the Master
Plan for the above-referenced community, which we can make available to
you. Additionally, the Land Planner involved in processing this PUD is
still practicing locally. The site plan will be processed as a Major Site
Plan Modification to the existing development.
Be advised that per previous conversations with Michael Rumpf and Ed
Breese, a Master Plan Modification for the entire PUD will be required.
This will need to be submitted timely to correspond with the Master Site
Plan Modification. If we have not received the formal application and
Master Plan amendment by the first week in October, we will have to
place the site plan on hold, as the Townhouse plan cannot preceed the
Master Plan Modification. The master plan submittal will require updating
as part of your application. At minimum, please provide the approved and
built unit totals for each tract and the total gross density (existing
and proposed), and update the public and private recreation areas
including both total sites and acreage. Lastly, please supplement the
tabular data with current terms for describing unit types.
Should you have any questions, do not hesitate to call me at 561-742-
