Memorandum No. PZ 05-163
ABAN 05-004
BACKGROUND
In July of 1898, the Plat of Original Town of Boynton subdivision was approved, depicting streets and alleys to be
dedicated for the perpetual use by the public. Southeast 1 sl Avenue is an east/west-oriented street that bisects the
Arches at Boynton Beach mixed-use development. In June of 2003, Boynton Ventures 1 lLC received site plan
approval for the Arches project. The original plans proposed to leave SE 1st Avenue intact. Since that time, the
applicant has placed under contract to purchase, those properties that remained unassembled and apart from the
original project, the remaining portion of an alley (ABAN 05-005, which is under consideration along with this
proposed street abandonment), and the subject of this request, SE 1 sl Avenue and has modified the development
plan to include these parcels. The applicant has the intention of vacating the 40-foot wide street to consolidate the
property and facilitate the development of a mixed-use project (see Exhibit "0"- ARCHES Site Plan). As indicated on
the survey, the segment of the street to be vacated measures approximately 335 linear feet, running east from SE
4th Street to South Federal Highway. All existing infrastructure within the street will be relocated or encased at the
applicant's expense, within existing easements or easements to be provided.
ANAL YSIS
Pursuant to Chapter 22, Article III, Section 4, public notice was given to the property owners within 400 feet of the
right-of-way to be abandoned and the requisite signs posted on the property. The applicant's agent has submitted
an affidavit acknowledging compliance with the aforementioned regulations. All utility companies have been notified
and the request has been advertised in the newspaper. A summary of the responses from the utility companies and
City staff is as follows:

RECOMMENDATION
Staff has determined that the subject right-of-way would no longer serve and public purpose under the proposed
Arches development plan, and therefore is recommending approval of the request to abandon the portion of the 40-
foot wide street as described above, subject to the comments included in Exhibit "E" - Conditions of Approval. This
recommendation is based upon the determination that the right-of-way is surrounded by the proposed development
and would serve only the applicant. Any conditions required by the Community Redevelopment Agency Board and
the Commission will be placed in Exhibit "E" - Conditions of Approval.

Ed Breese, Principal Planner, displayed the Arches site plan, showing the location of the area for
the proposed abandonment. There was no objection to this abandonment on the part of any
City Department. The utility interests such as Florida Power & light, Bellsouth, Florida Public
Utilities, and Adelphia Cable also have no objections, but do have conditions referring to the
provision of additional easements to assure proper location of the utilities. Staff recommended
approval since this right-of-way falls wholly within the Arches development and the City did not
believe it had any further use for it.
Bonnie Miskel, appearing on behalf of the applicant, stated that they accepted all the
conditions.
Chair Heavilin asked if anyone in the public wished to address this, and closed the floor when
no one came forward.

Ms. Horenburger moved to approve the request for abandonment of a 40-foot wide right-of-

Memorandum No. PZ 05-163
ABAN 05-004
BACKGROUND
In July of 1898, the Plat of Original Town of Boynton subdivision was approved, depicting streets and alleys to be
dedicated for the perpetual use by the public. Southeast 1 st Avenue is an east/west-oriented street that bisects the
Arches at Boynton Beach mixed-use development. In June of 2003, Boynton Ventures 1 llC received site plan
approval for the Arches project. The original plans proposed to leave SE 1st Avenue intact. Since that time, the
applicant has placed under contract to purchase, those properties that remained unassembled and apart from the
original project, the remaining portion of an alley (ABAN 05-005, which is under consideration along with this
proposed street abandonment), and the subject of this request, SE 1 st Avenue and has modified the development
plan to include these parcels. The applicant has the intention of vacating the 40-foot wide street to consolidate the
property and facilitate the development of a mixed-use project (see Exhibit "0"- ARCHES Site Plan). As indicated on
the survey, the segment of the street to be vacated measures approximately 335 linear feet, running east from SE
41h Street to South Federal Highway. All existing infrastructure within the street will be relocated or encased at the
applicant's expense, within existing easements or easements to be provided.
ANAL YSIS
Pursuant to Chapter 22, Article III, Section 4, public notice was given to the property owners within 400 feet of the
right-of-way to be abandoned and the requisite signs posted on the property. The applicant's agent has submitted
an affidavit acknowledging compliance with the aforementioned regulations. All utility companies have been notified
and the request has been advertised in the newspaper. A summary of the responses from the utility companies and
City staff is as follows:

RECOMMENDATION
Staff has determined that the subject right-of-way would no longer serve and public purpose under the proposed
Arches development plan, and therefore is recommending approval of the request to abandon the portion of the 40-
foot wide street as described above, subject to the comments included in Exhibit "E" - Conditions of Approval. This
recommendation is based upon the determination that the right-of-way is surrounded by the proposed development
and would serve only the applicant. Any conditions required by the Community Redevelopment Agency Board and
the Commission will be placed in Exhibit "E" - Conditions of Approval.
