PROPERTY OWNER NOTIFICATION
Owners of properties within 400 feet of the subject conditional use 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.
BACKGROUND
The subject site is the location of the former Motorola Development of Regional Impact (DRI). The
original Motorola DRI as approved in 1979 was, upon buildout, to contain 825,000 square feet (sq. ft.) of
industrial, research and development, and office uses. Following approval, 625,000 sq. ft. of industrial
and office uses were constructed, with the remaining 200,000 sq. ft. of approved office use left
undeveloped. In 2002, both the DRI development approval and the future land use designations were
amended to allow the development of 63,500 square feet of commercial uses and 500 multi-family
residential units in place of the unbuilt 200,000 sq. ft. of office use. On July 20, 2004, the City
Commission approved the applicant's request to rezone (LUAR 03-009) the entire site from Planned
Industrial Development (PID) to Suburban Mixed-Use (SMU), which included the establishment of new
maximum development thresholds from the conversion of built and undeveloped industrial square
footages. As part of the most recent DRI amendment, a "conversion" matrix was adopted that allows up
to 30% adjustment in the total number of dwelling units and square footage of non-residential uses.
This conversion matrix allows for flexibility to change between the uses and their intensities to meet
market demand while ensuring that the balance of cumulative impacts would be below the concurrency
threshold as it relates to vested traffic. This translates into adjustments of new development thresholds
equaling 1,691 dwelling units, 176,097 square feet of office, and 165,365 square feet of commercial
upon completion of the Renaissance Commons project. This conversion matrix is consistent with the
vested trips approved with the DR!. This is the final phase of development for Renaissance Commons.
Staff has ensured that, with the approval of this site plan, the total densities and intensities of the overall
development are consistent with Policy 1.24.2.b of the Comprehensive Plan (stated below).
Renaissance Commons Phase VI COUS 1l0-001
Page 3
Memorandum No. PZ 06-010
Policy 1.24.1.b
Consistent with the Renaissance Commons DRI Development Order, the
approved land uses and intensities shall be as follow:
Land Use (as defined in Policy 1.16.1) Minimum-Maximum
Intensitv
Hiqh density Residential 1,085 du to 2,016 du
Office Commercial 173,460 sf to 322, 140 sf
Local Retail / General Commercial 149,100 sf to 276,900 sf
Compson Associates of Boynton II, LLC is seeking conditional use / major site plan modification approval
to convert previously approved office space and parking garage area into 104,412 square feet of self-
storage (1,087 bays). The self-storage space would only occur within this phase (Phase VI) of the
project known as Renaissance Commons.
This phase of Renaissance Commons is an 1l.670-acre (508,326 square feet) portion of the 85.552-acre
parcel of land previously occupied by Motorola (DRI). The Phase VI site plan was previously approved
on December 7, 2004. It consisted of 348 dwelling units, 58,645 square feet of retail, 49,240 square
feet of restaurant, and 176,097 square feet of office / storage. The SMU zoning district requires
conditional use approval for buildings proposed over 55 feet in height and several of the buildings
proposed on that plan exceeded this height threshold. It should be noted that a minor site plan
modification was approved on October 4, 2005. This approval consisted of minor adjustments that were
made to the landscape plan. In addition, revisions to the buildings' colors were approved as well as
changes in the allocation of uses and their respective building areas within Buildings "I" and "K".
On November 10, 2006, the applicant submitted this request for conditional use / major site plan
modification approval. As proposed, Building "I" would be four (4)-stories (71 feet in height), consisting
of 19,993 square feet of retail, 18,300 square feet of restaurant space, 39,802 square feet of office, and
104,412 square feet of self-service storage. All proposed uses, with the exception of the self-storage
facility, are permitted uses in the SMU zoning district. Self-storage facilities are considered conditional
uses and therefore, it is the subject of this conditional use request. It should be noted the interior
parking garage of Building "I" would now have five (5) floors instead of four (4) floors but that all levels
would still be contained and hidden within the structure. Building "I" was legally advertised and
approved at 70 feet in height (in December of 2004). The elevations have been slightly modified and
now show that the top of the parapet wall is proposed at 71 feet in height, an increase of one (1) foot.
It should be noted that the proposed height of Building "I" would not exceed the SMU zoning district's
maximum height limitations but this one (l)-foot height differential of the parapet wall would not be
covered under the envelope of the December 2004 approval. Therefore, the applicant will be required to
either reduce the height of the parapet wall by one (l)-foot or request conditional use approval for the
increase in height (see Exhibit "C" - Conditions of Approval). The six (6)-story mixed-use building
known as Building "J", would house 205 multi-family dwelling units and 8,751 square feet of retail.
Building "K" would be three (3)-stories (75 feet) and consist of 12,757 square feet of retail, 22,274
square feet of restaurant, 54,462 square feet of office, and 20,000 square feet of medical office.
Building "L", proposed at five (5) stories (69 feet - four (4) inches in height), would also be mixed-use
with 6,027 square feet of restaurant, 19,385 square feet of retail, and 143 multi-family dwelling units.

CONCURRENCY
Originally, the Palm Beach County School District approved the entire Renaissance Commons site for
1,001 multi-family dwelling units. The applicant submitted new information and requested concurrency
approval for the additional condominium units. As of October 4, 2004, the entire Renaissance Commons
site (85+ acres) has school concurrency for a total of 1,700 units (1,442 multi-family units and 258 high-
rise apartments). However, at the time of permit review, the applicant would be required to submit
updated information so that staff can easily confirm the cumulative number and type of residential units
approved through Phases I through Phase VI (see Exhibit "C" - Conditions of Approval). This
information is required by staff in order to monitor the entire Renaissance Commons project for school
concurrency purposes.
The Utilities Division expects the water use from the self-storage use to be negligible and that the City
has the capacity to serve both the potable water and sanitary sewer needs.
Generally, a project's anticipated traffic is generated by two factors, namely the proposed use and its
intensity. On December 30, 2003, the Palm Beach County Traffic Division reviewed the master plan for
traffic concurrency purposes and determined that it met the Traffic Performance Standards (TPS) of
Palm Beach County. Phases I through Phase V were covered under the original approval for the
Development of Regional Impact (DRI). The DRI's current approval was for 1,551 multi-family dwelling
units, 247,800 square feet of general office, 198,000 square feet of general retail, and 15,000 square
feet of daycare. On October 25, 2004, the applicant submitted a traffic equivalency determination for
review and approval. On January 6, 2005, the Traffic Division issued an approval letter indicating that
the 4th revision to the DRI is projected to generate less peak hour trips than what was originally
approved, and therefore, the project meets the Traffic Performance Standards of Palm Beach County.
However, the developer is still required to make off-site improvements to Congress Avenue and Gateway
Boulevard as previously required with the October 2005 conditional use / site plan approval (see Exhibit
"C" - Conditions of Approval).
The Engineering Division of Public Works reviewed the drainage plans (approved with the original site
plan) to ensure compliance with all applicable codes and regulations regarding legal positive outfall. The
conceptual plans submitted with the October 2005 approval, are acceptable to the Engineering Division
but as per staff policy, a more detailed version would be required at the time of permitting (see Exhibit
"C" - Conditions of Approval).
Police: The Police Department determined that sufficient staff is available to serve the proposed changes
sought with this conditional use request.
Fire: Fire-Rescue personnel continues to support development of the Renaissance Commons project;
however, with the understanding that additional resources are needed through hiring of
inspection personnel, the timely completion of stations #4 and #5 to ensure adequate service
delivery levels and effective response times in the northeast section of the City and as a backup
in the northwest section of the City, and solutions provided (i.e. funded) for mapping and
dispatching issues.

STANDARDS FOR EVALUATING CONDITIONAL USES AND ANALYSIS
Section 11.2.D of the Land Development Regulations contains the following standards to which
conditional uses are required to conform. Following each of these standards is the Planning and Zoning
Division's evaluation of the application as it pertains to each of the standards.
The Planning & Development Board and City Commission shall consider only such conditional uses as are
authorized under the terms of these zoning regulations and, in connection therewith, may grant
conditional uses absolutely or conditioned upon the conditions including, but not limited to, the
dedication of property for streets, alleys, recreation space and sidewalks, as shall be determined
necessary for the protection of the surrounding area and the citizens' general welfare, or deny
conditional uses when not in harmony with the intent and purpose of this section. In evaluating an
application for conditional use approval, the Board and Commission shall consider the effect of the
proposed use on the general health, safety, and welfare of the community and make written findings
certifying that satisfactory provisions have been made concerning the following standards, where
applicable:
1. Ingress and egress to the subject property and proposed structures thereon, with particular
reference to automobile and pedestrian safety and convenience, traffic flow and control, and access
in case of fire or catastrophe.
No changes to vehicular circulation are being made with this request for conditional use approval.
The subject phase, as illustrated on the original master plan, is located at the northwest corner of
the parcel, north of Phases Three and Five and west of Phase Four. Vehicles would enter Phase Six
by four (4) different points of ingress / egress. The main point, the northernmost entrance, is
proposed along Gateway Boulevard. The site plan shows that it would be 58 feet in width and would
accommodate two (2)-way traffic movements. Upon entering from Gateway Boulevarcf, vehicles can
either make an immediate right-turn (west) or move towards the interior of the phase (south).
The second point of ingress / egress is proposed west of the five (5)-story building (Building ''L'') on
one of the development's drive aisles within Phase Three. This drive aisle has direct access onto
Congress A venue and would allow for two (2)-way traffic movements.
The third and fourth points of ingress / egress are proposed along the ''spine road" of the
Renaissance Commons development. One opening would be a major entrance, the other, a
subordinate entrance. The major entrance would allow vehicles to directly access the interior portion
of the phase. The other entrance would primarily allow for vehicles to access the parking areas
proposed along Gateway Boulevard. In the original staff report, the applicant stated that ''ingress
and egress for the project has been carefully planned to provide exemplary pedestrian access
throughout the site in a safe and convenient manner'~ Staff still concurs and agrees that fire, police,
and service vehicles could easily maneuver through all above-referenced driveway openings, drive
aisles, and curb-cuts.
2. Off-street parking and loading areas where required, with particular attention to the items in
subsection above, and the economic, glare, noise, and odor effects the conditional use will have on
adjacent and nearby properties, and the city as a whole.
Renaissance Commons Phase VI COUS 00-001
Page 6
Memorandum No. PZ 06-010
This phase of the Renaissance Commons project proposed a mixture of different types of uses. One-
bedroom apartment units require one and one-half (1 V2) parking spaces. Two and three bedroom
apartment units require two (2) parking spaces each. The project proposes two (2) large
condominium buildings consisting of a total of 132 one (1)-bedroom units, 172 two (2)-bedroom
units, 44 three (3)-bedroom units, and a recreation area. The restaurant, retail, office, and medical
office uses have been calculated at a shopping center rate of one (1) parking space per 200 square
feet of gross floor area. Additionally, the self-storage use requires parking at a rate of one (1) space
per 75 storage bays plus two (2) for a security quarters. It is understood that each self-storage bay
would be 96 square feet in area. Therefore, a total of 1,762 parking spaces would be required based
on the aforementioned uses and their respective intensities (see Exhibit "c" - Conditions of
Approval). The cover sheet tabular data indicates that 1,786 parking spaces would be providecf, a
surplus of 24 spaces. Parking would be provided via at-grade parking areas outside the buildings
and within the garages internal to the building.
3. Refuse and service areas, with particular reference to the items in subsection 1 and 2 above.
The requested storage space as a principal use in Phase VI does not require additional refuse or
service areas. The building remains unchanged from the conditional use. The ground floor plan of
Building '']'' shows two (2) trash rooms and loading zones would occur on the east fa~ade. As
previously approved, the ground floor plan of Building '']'' showed that this six (6)-story building
would have several trash rooms. The site plan showed that the trash trucks would have enough
maneuvering space to pick up the containers. The trucks would access the garbage rooms at the
west fa~ade. The ground floor plan of Building "K" indicated that this building would have one (1)
trash room. It would be accessed at the south fa~ade. The ground floor plan of Building ''L'' shows
that its trash room would be placed along the south fa~ade. No trash trucks would have to enter any
of the buildings. Staff reviewed the plans and determined that the number, location, and orientation
of the enclosures and the pick-up area are adequate for efficient trash removal.
4. Utilities, with reference to locations, availability, and compatibility.
The utility location and availability are unaffected by the addition of the proposed use. As with the
original approval, at the time of permitting, the applicant would be required to submit a timeline that
clearly illustrates when water and sewer services would be needed. The commencement date should
start at the date of City Commission approval. Also, the applicant would be required to provide
milestone dates regarding permit application, the start of construction, and the setting of the first
water meter. Utilities staff would use this timeline in order to determine the adequacy of water and
wastewater treatment capacity upon the project's completion (see Exhibit "c" - Conditions of
Approval).
5. Screening, buffering and landscaping with reference to type, dimensions, and character.
Additional buffers and/or landscaping are not required as a result of the addition of this self-storage
use. The use is internal to the building and has no exterior components which require screening or
buffering. No bay doors would be visible from the outside of the building. The character of the
building remains unchanged with the addition of the self-storage use. The cover sheet tabular data
from the original site plan showed that the pervious area for Phase Six equaled 17. 62% of the site.
The landscape material would consist of a large quantity of shade trees, palm trees, and shrubs /
Renaissance Commons Phase VI COUS uti-001
Page 7
Memorandum No. PZ 06-010
groundcover. The minor site plan modification that was recently approved allowed for slight
adjustments to the landscape plan with no overall reduction in plant material quantities.
6. Signs, and proposed exterior lighting, with reference to glare, traffic safety, economic effect, and
compatibility and harmony with adjacent and nearby properties.
No wall signs are proposed on the elevations for the storage use. However, if proposed in the
future, then any sign, including its material and color(s) would have to be in keeping with the
approved master sign program for Renaissance Commons. According to the applicant, the exterior
lighting would be similar and harmonious to that used elsewhere in Renaissance Commons. No
additional glare would compromise the safety of passerby traffic. Any proposed signage would have
to be consistent with the previous five (5) phases of the Renaissance Commons development. As
proposed on the elevations, the self-storage use would be successfully integrated and concealed
within Building 'T'~ a structure that resembles that of a multi-story office building. As such, staff is
concerned about the building's interior lighting, in particular, how the building would look after
sundown. Lighting may be used to illuminate a building and its grounds for safety purposes and to
enhance its beauty. However, the visual effect shall be subtle. Also, lighting shall not be used as a
form of advertising in a manner that draws more attention to the building or grounds at night than in
the day (Chapter 9, Section 10. F.). Therefore, any interior lighting (including lighting with varying
colors) that shines onto the overhead bay doors (from within the building that can be seen outside
the building) would be in direct conflict to the above referenced code (see Exhibit "c" - Conditions of
Approval).
The original Phase VI site plan was approved with three (3) monument signs. It showed that the
one of the signs would be located at the northwestern corner of the subject property. It would face
the intersection of Gateway Boulevard and Congress Avenue. The other two (2) freestanding
monument signs would be placed at the main point of ingress / egress along Gateway Boulevard. All
monument signs are required to be setback a minimum of 10 feet away from the property line.
Likewise, it could be measured from the outside of the curb along the spine road and access road
(see Exhibit "c" - Conditions of Approval). Again, no signage is shown on the elevation pages for
the aforementioned monument signs. If proposed in the future, its materials and color(s) would
have to be in keeping with the approved master sign program for Renaissance Commons (see Exhibit
"C" - Conditions of Approval).
7. Required setbacks and other open spaces.
The proposed self-storage use would have no impact on approved setbacks or open spaces. The
zoning for Phase VI had been changed from Planned Industrial Development (PID) to Suburban
Mixed Use (SMU). The ''height setback envelope" is not applicable to this phase because there is no
single-family residential development directly adjacent to Phase VL The site plan shows the
buildings would be setback no more than 90 feet from Gateway Boulevard and Congress A venue and
therefore, the project complies with code in that respect.
8. General compatibility with adjacent property and other property in the zoning district.
The proposed self-storage use is compatible with surrounding businesses along Congress A venue
and the uses throughout the City. Self-storage would not have a deleterious effect on the property
values of neighboring lots. Generally, self-storage uses are less intense than office, retail, or
Renaissance Commons Phase VI COUS \)0-001
Page 8
Memorandum No. PZ 06-010
commercial uses. The self-storage facility is designed within the confines of Building '']'' on the third
and fourth floors while the retail and office components would occur on the lower floors. Evidently,
the applicant anticipates that the self-storage use can coexist nicely with the retail and office uses
inside one (1) building. Staff concurs.
9. Height of building and structures, with reference to compatibility and harmony to adjacent and
nearby properties, and the city as a whole.
The SMU zoning district is appropriate for low- to mid-rise developments that provide for medium
density residential uses. The district allows for a maximum building height of 55 feet and a
residential density of 20 dwelling units per acre for mixed-use projects. Building heights between 55
feet and 75 feet measured to the peak of the structure or any architectural details may be allowed
only for interior buildings (those buildings separated from property line by another project building or
use) but only as a conditional use. All four buildings (of Phase VI) have portions of their structure
that extend beyond the 55-foot threshold, so therefore all buildings required conditional use
approval. As proposecf, the interior parking garage of Building '']'' would now have five (5) floors
instead of four (4) floors but all parking levels would still be contained and hidden from within the
structure. Building '']'' was legally advertised and approved at 70 feet in height (in December of
2004). This means that any portion of the proposed building that exceeds this height dimension
would require conditional use approval. The elevations show that Building '']'' would be 71 feet in
height. Therefore, this one (1)-foot increase in height would require conditional use approval. The
applicant will be required to either reduce the height of the parapet wall by one (1)-foot or request
conditional use approval for the increase in height (see Exhibit "c" - Conditions of Approval).
10. Economic effects on adjacent and nearby properties, and the city as a whole.
As previously mentionecf, the proposed self-storage use would not have an impact on the values of
neighboring properties. It is a relatively benign use that would be operating from within Building '']'~
Also, staff believes that it will be a benefit to the neighboring residents based on the development
(townhouse) product and its lack of extra storage space. The original staff report for Phase VI
indicated that the "development is expected to substantially increase the City's tax-base. The
proposed development for the site is consistent with Policy 1.19.2 of the Comprehensive Plan in that
the project (as a whole) would provide both commercial and residential development and is expected
to generate approximately 1,090 jobs, and provide goods and services, as well as add to the range
of housing opportunities in the City'~ However, it should be noted that less jobs are created by self-
storage uses than with office uses.
11. Conformance to the standards and requirements, which apply to site, plans, as set forth in Chapter
19, Article II of the City of Boynton Beach Code of Ordinances. (Part III Chapter 4 Site Plan Review).
With incorporation of staff comments, the proposed project would comply with all requirements of
applicable sections of city code.
12. Compliance with, and abatement of nuisances and hazards in accordance with the performance
standards within Section 4.N. of the Land Development Regulations, Chapter 2; also, conformance to
the City of Boynton Beach noise Control Ordinance.
With incorporation of all conditions and staff recommendations contained herein, the proposed use
Renaissance Commons Phase VI COUS 00-001
Page 9
Memorandum No. PZ 06-010
would exist in a manner that is in compliance with the above-referenced codes and ordinances of the
City of Boynton Beach. The project would not create smoke, odors, fumes, or toxic matter that
would negatively impact the neighboring properties. It would be atypical for self-storage facilities to
violate the City's performance standards.
RECOMMENDATION
Based on the discussions contained herein, compliance with development regulations, and consistency
with the Comprehensive Plan, staff recommends that this request for conditional use be approved
subject to satisfying all conditions of approval as contained in Exhibit "C" - Conditions of Approval.
Furthermore, pursuant to Chapter 2 - Zoning, Section 11.2 Conditional Uses, a time limit is to be set
within which the proposed project is to be developed. Staff recommends that a period of one (1) year
be allowed to initiate this project.

10. As proposed, the interior parking garage of Building "I" would now have five
(5) floors instead of four (4) floors but all parking levels would still be
contained and hidden from within the structure. Building "I" was legally
advertised and approved at 70 feet in height (in December of 2004). This
means that any portion of the proposed building that exceeds this height
dimension would require conditional use approval. The elevations show that
Building "I" would be 71 feet in height. Therefore, this one (1)-foot increase
in height would require conditional use approval. The applicant will be
required to either reduce the height of the parapet wall by one (I)-foot or
request conditional use approval for the increase in height.
11. At the time of permitting, the developer shall be required to secure an updated
Traffic Performance Standards letter from the County that directly
corresponds with the uses (including self-storage) and their respective
buildings areas within all six phases.
12. The project has school concurrency approval for 1,700 units but there is an
inconsistency between the type and number of units between the School
District's approval letter and the proposed master plan's tabular data
(townhouses versus condominium). This is a minor inconsistency, so
therefore, at the time of permit review, the applicant will be required to
submit an updated School Concurrency approval letter that is consistent with
the number and types of dwelling units, approved through Phases One
through Six.
13. As proposed on the elevations, the self-storage use would be successfully
integrated and concealed within Building "I", a structure that resembles that
of a multi-story office building. As such, staff is concerned about the
building's interior lighting, in particular, how the building would look after
sundown. Lighting may be used to illuminate a building and its grounds for
safety purposes and to enhance its beauty. However, the visual effect shall be
subtle. Also, lighting shall not be used as a form of advertising in a manner
that draws more attention to the building or grounds at night than in the day
(Chapter 9, Section lO.F.). Therefore, any interior lighting (including
lighting with varying colors) that shines onto the overhead bay doors (from
within the building that can be seen outside the building) would be in direct
conflict to the above referenced code.
14. The storage bays shall not be used to manufacture, fabricate or process
service or repair vehicles, boats, small engines or electrical equipment, or to
conduct similar repair activities; conduct garage sales or retail sales of any
kind; or conduct any other commercial or industrial activity on the site

16. At the time of permitting, indicate the number of self-storage bays that are
proposed within the subject building on the site plan tabular data (sheet SP-
1).
17. No signs are proposed on the elevations or the monuments signs for the self-
storage use. However, if proposed in the future, then any sign, including its
material and color(s) would have to be in keeping with the approved master
sign program for Renaissance Commons.

RE: Renaissance Commons Phase VI self-storage
Eric
I would expect the water use from the self-storage space to be negligible. Therefore, even with the increase of gross
square footage, the reduction of total office space from 176,097 down to 104,264 square feet would more than offset the
water/sewer demand for any self-storage use.
The site plan modification request would thus have no additional impact from the original, approved site plan.

Renaissance Commons Phase VI self-storage
Pete,
Compson Associates, the developer of Renaissance Commons Phase VI was previously approved for the
following:
348 multi-family dwelling units
58,645 square feet of retail
49,240 square feet of restaurant
176,097 square feet of office
As you know, they've submitted a request for major site plan modification approval (for Phase VI) to convert
some of the previoulsy approved office space (and parking garage area) into self-storage use. In addition,
please note the difference in office and medical office from the original approval.
348 multi-family dwelling units
60,886 square feet of retail
46,601 square feet of restaurant
94,264 square feet of office
20,000 square feet of medical office
104,412 square feet of self-service storage
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 ofxx,xxx gallons per day). Local piping and infrastructure improvements may
be requirecf, especially on the water delivery system, for the project, dependent 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 projected total of xx,xxx gallons per day, subject to the
applicant making a firm reservation of capacity, following approval of the site plan.

Please complete the above-paragraph. I'm assuming that self-storage utilizes less potable water and sanitary
sewer than straight office use. Thank you for your consideration in this matter. Thanks,
Eric

Renaissance Commons VI Building "I" (Conditional Use for
Self Storage)
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.
