PROPERTY OWNER NOTIFICATION
Owners of properties within 400 feet of the subject site plan were mailed a notice of this request and its
respective hearing dates. The applicant certifies that they posted signage and mailed notices in
accordance with Ordinance No. 04-007.
Site Characteristic: The subject property is comprised of three (3) irregular-shaped parcels all under
the same ownership totaling approximately 2.6S acres. Parcels 1 and 2 are
undeveloped and the easternmost portion, "Parcel 3", is primarily a finger canal of
the Intracoastal Waterway. The developer intends to leave the canal intact and to
utilize its square footage as a means to increase the allowable density. The subject
property lies within Study Area V of the Federal Highway Corridor Redevelopment
Plan. The survey shows that multiple easements have been dedicated throughout
the site. The survey also shows the location of existing single-family detached
homes (that once fronted on Virginia Gardens Drive) and new lot lines of previously
platted lots of the "Dakota Lofts PUD". The project intent is to raze all buildings in
order to construct townhouse buildings. However, one (1) existing single-family
dwelling was not acquired by the developer and therefore, will not be within the
scope of this project. However, access to the existing home would be preserved
thereto via an easement through the subject project.
Originally, the houses on Virginia Gardens Drive had direct access to Federal
Highway. However, the developer acquired this private right-of-way and has it
integrated into the design of the site plan. As a consequence, ingress I egress for
the remaining single-family dwelling (located directly east of the subject property)
will occur through the proposed site to Bamboo Lane. Additionally, it was learned
that a water well previously served the single family dwellings at 2 Virginia Gardens
Drive and 821 Bamboo Lane. This water well was considered a community well
and unless there were underlying conditions or requirements such as deed
restrictions granting water rights to the existing users, it was incumbent upon the
Staff Report - Estancia (NWSP 05-026)
Memorandum No PZ 05-208
Page 3
applicant to either install a new well to serve those residential dwellings or to
connect the aforementioned dwellings to City water. Staff understands that 821
Bamboo Lane is in fact, connected to potable water and sanitary sewer. However,
from a cursory review, it appears as though 2 Virginia Gardens Drive is still on well
and septic tank.
BACKGROUND
Proposal:
Mr. Carlos Ballbe, agent for HHC Boynton, LLC is proposing a new site plan for 30
townhouse units. The subject site was previously developed with the SunWah
Chinese restaurant. On January 15, 2002 the City Commission approved the site
for a residential townhouse project known as "Dakota Lofts". On February 28,
2002, the original owner applied for building permits but failed to submit actual
permit drawings. Subsequently, the property was sold to a different developer who
likewise, was unsuccessful in obtaining a building permit. The new developer
proposed various changes to the floor plan and elevations drawings, necessitating a
major site plan modification (MSPM 02-006). On January 21, 2003, the City
Commission approved the developer's request for major site plan modification and
accompanying Dakota Lofts Record Plat. Site plan approval is valid for one (1) year
and it subsequently expired on January 21, 2004. No request for site plan time
extension was ever submitted. It should be noted that any site improvements
other than a single-family or duplex home on the subject property requires site
plan approval. Now, the new property owner, HHC Boynton, LLC desires to
develop the former "Dakota Lofts" project with additional units because they (as
contract purchaser) were able to assemble additional lots along the former Virginia
Gardens Drive. However, the newly assembled lots are classified and zoned for
single family homes; not town homes. Additionally, subsequent to when the
"Dakota Lofts" site plan was approved, the City created a more appropriate zoning
district (the Infill Planned Unit Development - IPUD) in order to better
accommodate infill development. The subject property is eligible for the IPUD
zoning district because it is located within Study Area V of the Federal Highway
Corridor Redevelopment Plan. Therefore, the developer is now requesting to
rezone the entire property to IPUD. Therefore, approval of this project is
contingent upon the approval of the corresponding request for land use change
and rezoning (LUAR 05-009). Fee-simple townhouses are permitted uses in the
IPUD zoning district. Under the Special High Density Residential land use category,
the maximum allowable project density would consist of 52 dwelling units (density
at 20 dwelling units per acre). The project proposes a total of 30 dwelling units,
which equals a density of 11.35 dwelling units per acre. The entire project would
be built in one (1) phase.
ANALYSIS
Concurrency:
Traffic:
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 Palm
Beach County Traffic Division has determined that the proposed residential project
is located within the designated Coastal Residential Exception Areas of the county,
Staff Report - Estancia (NWSP 05-026)
Memorandum No PZ 05-208
Page 4
and therefore meets the Traffic Performance Standards of Palm Beach County.
However, no building permits are to be issued by the City, after the 2007 build-out
date (see Exhibit "C" - Conditions of Approval). The County traffic concurrency
approval is subject to the Project Aggregation Rules set forth in the Traffic
Performance Standards Ordinance.
Utilities:
The City's water capacity, as increased through the purchase of up to 5 million
gallons of potable water per day from Palm Beach County Utilities, would meet the
projected potable water for this project (project estimated to require a total of
13,560 gallons per day). Local piping and infrastructure improvements may be
required, especially on the water delivery system for the project, depending upon
the final project configuration and fire-flow demands. These local improvements
would be the responsibility of the site developer and would be reviewed at the time
of permitting. Sufficient sanitary sewer and wastewater treatment capacity is
currently available to serve the projected total of 6,090 gallons per day, subject to
the applicant making a firm reservation of capacity, following approval of the site
plan (see Exhibit "C" - Conditions of Approval).
Police I Fire: Staff reviewed the site plan and determined that current staffing levels would be
sufficient to meet the expected demand for services.
Drainage: 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).
School: An application for school concurrency has been submitted to the School District of
Palm Beach County. No confirmation has yet been received. Therefore, no
building permits may be issued until the School District of Palm Beach County
confirms that adequate capacity exists to accommodate the proposed 30 dwelling
units (see Exhibit "C" - Conditions of Approval).
Driveways: The project proposes one main (1) point of ingress / egress to the subject site.
This point would be located on Bamboo Lane. According to the survey, Bamboo
Lane was previously dedicated as an ingress / egress easement (O.R.B. 14728,
Page 512) for the surrounding neighborhood. The developer intends to improve
the portion of Bamboo Lane that directly abuts the subject property. The site plan
(sheet SP1 of 2) shows that the project entrance on Bamboo Lane would be located
approximately 90 feet east from the paved portion of Federal Highway. Vehicles
leaving the subject property would be allowed to make right (west) and left (east)
traffic movements. However, Bamboo Lane is a dead end road and therefore,
vehicles traveling east from the subject property would be minimal.
The site plan proposes 22 to 24 foot wide drive aisles. The Typical Roadway
sections show that the width of the travel lanes would vary between 11 feet to 12
feet, depending on their location. All internal roadways would accommodate two

Memorandum No PZ 05-208
Page 5
(2) -way traffic movements. The site plan shows an emergency vehicle "T" Turn-
around area, proposed north of the finger canal. This would allow fire trucks and
service vehicles to successfully turn around at the project's dead-end street. These
private streets, internal to the development, would conform to current engineering
standards.
Parking Facility: Two (2) and three (3) bedroom dwelling units require two (2) parking spaces per
unit. The project proposes 30 three (3) bedroom units and a recreation facility.
Therefore, based upon the above referenced number of units and the amenity, the
project requires a total of 65 parking spaces. The site plan shows that each unit
would have a two (2)-car garage, which would thus equate to providing 60 parking
spaces. The first floor plan (sheet A6) shows that each garage would be
dimensioned 22 feet - eight (8) inches in width and 21 feet in depth. The plan also
proposes eight (8) off-street parking spaces. According to the Typical Parking Stall
Detail, the 90-degree parking stalls would be dimensioned nine (9) feet in width by
18-feet in length. The handicap parking spaces would be dimensioned 12 feet in
width (with extra 5-feet of striping) and 18 feet in length. Combining the garage
spaces and the 90-degree spaces, the site plan would proVide for a total of 68
parking spaces or an excess of three (3) parking spaces. The applicant informed
staff that it is their intent to provide an additional eight (8) parking spaces along
Federal Highway. That proposition would be subject to Florida Department of
Transportation (FDOT) review and approval.
Landscaping: The site plan tabular data (sheet SP1 of 2) indicates that 0.77 acres or 29.06% of
the site would be pervious surface. According to the Land Development
Regulations, the IPUD zoning district requires 200 square feet of usable open space
per dwelling unit. The plans propose 30 dwelling units and therefore, 6,000 square
feet of usable open space would be required. The land earmarked for the
recreation area in conjunction with eligible portions of the pervious surfaces brings
the plans into compliance with this usable open space requirement. The recreation
area alone constitutes over 87% of usable open space. The landscape plan would
provide a total of 81 canopy trees, 127 palm trees, and 1,065 shrubs, 2,312
groundcover plants, and 147 accent plants. The Plant List (sheet L-2 of 3)
indicates that 97% of the canopy trees, 60% of the palm trees, and 50% of the
shrubs would be native species.
The site plan (sheet SP1 of 3) shows that the western landscape buffer would be at
least 20 feet in width at its narrowest point. This landscape buffer would be
adjacent to Federal Highway. The landscape plan shows that this buffer would
consist of Live Oak, Foxtail palm, Silver Buttonwood hedge, Evergreen Giant, Wax
Jasmine, Crinum Lily, Simpson Stopper, Indian Hawthorne, and Dwarf Crown of
Thorns. The landscape plan also shows that a six (6) foot high perimeter fence
(with 6-foot high decorative columns) is proposed within this buffer, which would
be installed close to and running parallel with the west property line. Each unit
would have pedestrian access directly to Federal Highway. All pedestrians would
pass through an entry gate. The gates would be iron and the decorative columns
with their precast caps would have a smooth stucco finish. The Elevation Cross
Section of Federal Highway Buffer (sheet L-3 of 3) illustrates a street level view of

Memorandum No PZ 05-208
Page 6
Federal Highway. The cross section shows that Live Oak trees and Foxtail palm
trees would be installed at 16 feet in height, Royal palm trees at 26 feet in height,
and Cabbage palms at 20 to 30 feet in height. The plant material (and their
specifications) proposed on the cross section supersedes the same on the
landscape plan and a revised landscape plan will be required at the time of
permitting as a result of the discrepancy between the two (see Exhibit "C" -
Conditions of Approval).
The site plan (sheet SP1 of 3) shows that the south landscape buffer, adjacent to
Bamboo Lane would be approximately seven (7) feet in width. This buffer would
contain a solid, six (6) foot tall wall with decorative columns and the following plant
material: Highrise Live Oak, Palatka Holly, Purple Glory tree, Foxtail palm, Simpson
Stopper, Crinum Lilly, Indian Hawthorne, and Dwarf Crown of Thorns. As part of
the improvement proposed to Bamboo Lane, the existing landscape median would
be enhanced with 23 Dwarf Schefflera, 25 Crown of Thorns, and 25 Indian
Hawthorne installed within.
The site plan (sheet SP1 of 3) shows that the north landscape buffer would be
approximately six (6) feet in width at its narrowest point. It should be noted that
Areca palm trees and a 10-foot tall Ficus hedge were previously installed along the
south property line of the abutting property to the north. However, the following
plant material is proposed within the north landscape buffer of the subject
property: Royal palm, Buttonwood, Gumbo Limbo, Purple Glory tree, Cat palm,
Red Ginger, Dwarf Schefflera, and Dwarf Firebush. A wall is proposed along the
western half of the north property line.
The site plan (sheet SP1 of 3) shows that the east landscape buffer would be 20
feet in width at its narrowest point. The landscape plan shows that Highrise Live
Oak, Cabbage palm, Gumbo Limbo, Palatka Holly, Fahahatchee grass, Redtip
Cocoplum, and Sword fern are proposed within this buffer. The main objective of
this buffer is to serve as a barrier between the subject property and the adjacent
single-family homes. Staff has concerns over the deciduous nature of the Gumbo
Limbo and therefore recommends substituting them with another type of native,
canopy tree such as a Paradise tree or Mahogany (see Exhibit "C" - Conditions of
Approval).
The Typical 4, 5, and 7 Unit Landscape Plans (sheet L2 of 3) depict the use of
Indian Hawhthorne, Silver Buttonwood hedge, Wart Fern, Redtip Cocoplum, Crinum
Lily, and Tibouchina. The pool area would have Coconut palms on each side.
Building and Site: As previously mentioned, the applicant is requesting to rezone the property to the
IPUD zoning district with a density of 11.32 dwelling units per acre. The maximum
density allowed by the Special High Density Residential land use classification is 20
dwelling units per acre. The 30 dwelling units are proposed within six (6) separate
buildings on the 2.65-acre site. Each building would contain a varying number of
dwelling units, ranging from four (4) units to seven (7) units. The unit plans (sheet
A.13.0 through sheet A.16.0) show the size of each unit, ranging from 1,931
square feet to 2,372 square feet of "under roof area".
Staff Report - Estancia (NWSP 05-026)
Memorandum No PZ 05-208
Page 7
The IPUD zoning district allows buildings to reach a maximum height of 45 feet,
however, a lesser height could be imposed for better compatibility with adjacent
properties. All buildings would be three (3) stories in height, the tallest of which,
would be 36 feet - six (6) inches in height, measured at the mid-point of the
pitched roof. The elevations do not indicate the height to the peak of the roof.
The IPUD zoning district contains no specific minimum building setback
requirements other than mirroring the setbacks of adjacent zoning districts. The
required setbacks, most important to this project, would be those required along
the east property line. The abutting property to the northeast is zoned R-1-AA and
requires a side yard setback of 10 feet. The site plan is proposing a 20-foot
building setback at the northeast corner of the property. The abutting property to
the southeast is also zoned R-1-AA. Likewise, it has the same side setback
requirement (10 feet). However, it appears as though the existing single-family
detached home on the abutting property to the southeast is non-conforming
because there is no side yard setback. This non-conforming status of the abutting
neighbor to the east would not be an issue for the current developer because
Building #3 would be setback 23 feet from the east property line; it needs to be
setback only 10 feet from the east property line. The abutting multi-family
development to the north is zoned R-3. The required setbacks along the north
property line that are pertinent to the Estancia project would be as follows: Side-
20 feet and Rear - 40 feet. To comply, the site plan shows the buildings of the
subject property would be setback between 20 feet at its narrowest point to nearly
40 feet at its widest point from the north property line. The site plan shows that
the buildings would be setback 20 feet from the west property line (along Federal
Highway). Buildings #1 and #3 would be setback 35 feet from the south property
line (along Bamboo Lane).
On the site plan tabular data, the setback table indicates that the parcel setbacks
would be 20 feet from the west property line, 15 feet from the north property line,
30 feet from the south property line, and 10 feet from the east property line. This
does not coincide with the aforementioned setback information and as a
consequence, must be rectified to match each other at the time of permitting (see
Exhibit "C" - Conditions of Approval). The unit setbacks within each parcel
boundary are proposed as follows: Front, Rear, and Sides - five (5) feet.
No individual swimming pools are proposed but a note on the site plan indicates
that screen enclosures would be permitted, such as long as they do not go beyond
the building envelop. The second story balconies would be approximately three (3)
feet deep and extend into the front setback. This encroachment would only occur
within the setback proposed along Federal Highway. The recreation area would be
located at the eastern portion of the property abutting the finger canal and flanked
by the townhouse buildings on the north and south sides. It would include a
cabana and a swimming pool. The clubhouse elevation (sheet A-17) does not
indicate the roof height but shows it as a one (l)-story structure.
Staff Report - Estancia (NWSP 05-026)
Memorandum No PZ 05-208
Page 8
Design:
The proposed buildings and clubhouse resemble a modern Spanish-Mediterranean
design with textured stucco finish, decorative shutters, outriggers, and S-tile roof.
The elevations show that each building would have decorative garage doors, tile
inlays, and wall mounted lighting fixtures. The project proposes multi-colored
buildings consisting of the following Sherman Williams paint:
Color code Color Location
SW# 6686 Light yellow Main wall
SW# 6339 Tan Main wall
SW# 6673 Yellow Main wall
SW# 6355 Light Brown Main wall
SW # 6962 Purple Shutters
The elevations of the clubhouse (sheet A17) show that it would have the same S-
tile roof as the townhouse buildings. The clubhouse would be painted yellow and
would have an aluminum gate with self closing and latching doors to meet
requirements of the Florida Safe Pool Act.
The plans propose one (1) type of outdoor freestanding lighting fixture. The Type
"A" Light Pole detail on the photometric plan detail (sheet PH1 of 1) indicates it
would be 18-feet in height and made of round aluminum. Each pole would be
painted black and have a decorative lamp. The photometric plan demonstrates
that lighting levels would be adequate and not "spill" over onto adjacent properties.
Pursuant to Chapter 2, Section 5.L.4.g.(1) of the Land Development Regulations,
project compatibility is judged on how well the proposed development fits within
the context of the neighborhood and abutting properties. Attached is a letter-sized
sheet that illustrates building heights, setbacks, and plant material. Staff
determined that the original Dakota Lofts site plan met the intent of the code, and
this generation of plans (Estancia) surpasses the quality of the former.
Signage:
The Landscape Feature detail on sheet AD.1 shows that an "Estancia" sign is
proposed on the entry wall at the southwest corner of the property. The detail
shows that it would be aluminum, black powder-coated lettering with uplighting.
No dimensions or font types were indicated on the sign detail. The sign is limited
to six (6) feet in height and 32 square feet in area pursuant to Chapter 21, Article
IV, Section 1.D. of the Land Development Regulations (see Exhibit"C"- Conditions
of Approval).
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff has reviewed this request for new site plan approval and is recommending approval, contingent upon
the successful request for land use amendment / rezoning (LUAR 05-009) and subject to 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.

22. Recreation and Parks Impact Fee is $23,130 and should be paid prior to the
issuance of the first permit.
FORESTER/ENVIRONMENTALIST
Comments:
23. The plant material (and their specifications) proposed on the Cross Section of
Federal Highway Buffer supersedes the same as shown on the landscape plan
and therefore, a revised landscape plan will be required at the time of
permitting.
24. Three (3) Gumbo Limbo trees are proposed at the northeast comer of the
property, adjacent to the single-family home. While Gumbo Limbo trees
provide a large canopy, staff still has concerns over the deciduous nature of
them and their ability to effectively buffer year-round. Therefore,
recommends substituting these three (3) particular trees with another type of
native, canopy tree, such as a Paradise, Red Cedar, Hex, or Mahogany tree or
a combination.
PLANNING AND ZONING
Comments:
25. Because there are multiple lots, a unity of title will be required to join the lots
together, This shall be executed prior to the issuance of a building permit.

request for land use amendment / rezoning (LUAR 05-009),
COAdoc

DEPARTMENTS INCLUDE REJECT
27. The project must obtain approval from the School District of Palm Beach
County regarding school concurrency prior to the issuance of a building
permit. It would be preferable to have this approval prior to the Community
Redevelopment Agency Board meeting.
28. On the site plan tabular data (sheet SPI of 2), indicate that the project
requires 65 parking spaces rather than 62 parking spaces, Also, correct the
tabular data on the on the site plan prepared by Randall Stofft Architects
(sheet AO.I) so that it matches sheet SP 1 of 2.
29. On the site plan tabular data, the setback table indicates that the parcel
setbacks lines would be setback 20 feet from the west property line, 15 feet
from the north property line, 30 feet from the south property line, and 10 feet
from the east property line. This does not coincide with the aforementioned
setback information and as a consequence, must be rectified to match each
other at the time of permitting.
30. All new docks would require approval from the U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers. If an IPUD is located with frontage on the Intracoastal Waterway,
conditions of approval shall include a deed restriction requiring that any
marina or dockage built will not exceed in width, the boundaries of the
project's actual frontage on the water, regardless of what any other governing
or permitting entity may allow or permit (Chapter 2, Section 5,L.4.g.(3)).
31. The sign is limited to six (6) feet in height and 32 square feet in area pursuant
to Chapter 21, Article IV, Section 1.D. of the Land Development Regulations.
32. A condition of approval from the Community Redevelopment Agency Board
from the original site plan application stated the following: Provide formal
agreements between the developer and the adjacent property owners
regarding the current and proposed water service. This directly relates to
those adjacent single family residences currently receiving water service from
a well that is located on the subject property.
33. A condition of approval from the Community Redevelopment Agency Board
from the original site plan application stated the following: Provide formal
agreements between the developer and the adjacent property owners

2 Virginia Gardens Drive appears to still be on well and septic tank. I'm really not sure where their well is located. That
parcel does not appear to abut the former Dakota Lofts site. Are we sure that their well is located on the subject site? The
neighboring homes do have water and sewer service, so this may be a situation in which the owner just does not want to
connect.

Subject: Estancia (fka Dakota Lofts)
Pete,
I'm just working on the conditions of approval for the Estancia site plan, As you can recall, the subject
property was approved for 18 townhomes known as Dakota Lofts(formerly Sun Wah restaurant).
During the public hearings when Dakota Lofts was reviewed, there was a real issue with the potable
water situation. Some abutting homeowners claimed that they had water wells on the old Sun Wah
property. I guess the intent was that the developer for Dakota Lofts was going to hook everyone up to
potable water and sanitary sewer service. At the time, the CRA made the following condition of
approval:

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.

10. Relocate Live Oaks proposed adjacent to the entrance on Bamboo Lane and adjacent to the
internal roadways. They may present a vertical conflict for high profile vehicles (Solid Waste)
on an already narrow roadway.
11. Explain the purpose of the 16-ft. x 55-ft. parking stall between Units 25 and 26.
12. Off-site parking stalls may not be counted towards required project parking.
ENGINEERING
13. Add a general note to the Site Plan that all plans submitted for specific permits shall meet the
City's Code requirements at time of application. These permits include, but are not limited to,
the following: paving, drainage, curbing, site lighting, landscaping and irrigation. Permits
required from other permitting agencies such as Florida Department of Transportation
(FOOT), South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD), Lake Worth Drainage District
(LWDD), Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP), Palm Beach County Health
Department (PBCHD), Palm Beach County Engineering Department (PBCED), Palm Beach
County Department of Environmental Resource Management (PBCDERM) and any others,
shall be included with the permit request.
14. All comments requiring changes and/or corrections to the plans shall be reflected on all
appropriate sheets.
15. 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.
16. 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.
17. The existing Boundary Survey is an augmented version of the Dakota Lofts record plat
(recorded in P.B. 97, Pgs. 132-134, on 3/11/03); a new record plat will be required to reflect
the new Site Plan and additional land to be incorporated into the development.
18. Show proposed site lighting on the Landscape plans (LOR, Chapter 4, Section 7.BA.) 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 photoelectrical 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. If possible please provide photometrics as part of
your TART plan submittals - it is much easier to identify and correct any deficiencies now than
while you are waiting on a permit!
19. It will 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).

31. No utility plan was included with this submittal; therefore the Utilities Department considers
this plan incomplete as submitted. However, the proposed Site Plan is an existing site located
within the Utilities' service area, and is located where utility support is available. We are
providing only a cursory review of the proposed site plans as submitted at this time.
Additional comments will be generated after a utility plan has been submitted.
32. 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.
33. Palm Beach County Health Department permits will be required for the water and sewer
systems serving this project (CODE, Section 26-12).
34. 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)).
35. 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.
36. 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.
37. 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).
38. 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.
39. 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.
40. PVC material not permitted on the City's water system. All lines shall be DIP.

41. 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.
42. The LOR, Chapter 3, Article IV, Section 3(0) requires Master Plans to show all utilities on or
adjacent to the tract/parcel. The utility 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.
43. The LOR, 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.
44. 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.

New Site Plan - 1 st Review
NWSP 05-026
Date:
July 25,2005
Landscape Plan
1. The applicant should show an elevation cross-section detail of the actual heights of the proposed
landscape trees and vegetation at the time of planting to (proper scale) visually buffer the
proposed buildings from the Federal Highway right-of-way.
Irrigation Plan
2. There is no irrigation system design included with the site plans. The irrigation design should be
low-flow for water conservation. All shade and palm trees should receive irrigation from a
bubbler source. [Environmental Regulations, Chapter 7.5, Article II Sec. SA.]
3. Turf areas should be limited in size. Landscape (bedding plants) areas should be designed on
separate low-flow zones with proper time duration for water conservation. [Environmental
Regulations, Chapter 7.5, Article II Sec. 5. C.2.]

Subject: Estancia Land Use Amendment
Carlos,
We have tried several times to contact you regarding the application for land use amendment and rezoning for
Estancia (fka Dakota Lofts). The application is only for the properties to be added to the original project; however,
the future land use designation for the original project only allows a maximum of 10.8 du/ac and the proposed
project is showing a gross density of 11.95 du/ac. This means that the land for the entire project must go through
the land use amendment and rezoning process to take it to Special High Density Residential and IPUD zoning.
Unfortunately, this means that all impacts to roadways, water and sewer systems and schools must be
recalculated and submitted based on the total acreage and the submittal forms corrected.
The application for the land use amendment and rezoning is on hold until the application forms are corrected.
will be out of the office from August 8 to August 23, but in my absence, Eric can help you with any questions
regarding the application.
