RE: Boynton Beach Lofts - Site Plan Application NWSP 005-008
Dear Ed:
Pursuant to our most recent meeting we have made revisions to the site plan application to address the
proposed conditions of approval that were of concern to the CRA Board. Attached are ten sets of the
revised plan. Provided below is a response to the conditions of approval that were specifically addressed
by the CRA Board.
#42 At the time of permitting revise the massing model (sheet I LL -1) and other applicable sheets to
accurately show the roof line of the proposed building.
The massing model has been amended to dime~sionally show the setbacks botb.horizootally and vertically
to confinn that the building complies with the required set backs.
#43 At the time of permitting revise the massing model (sheet I LL-1) or elevations to indicate building
set back compliance of the MU-L zoning district when structures are above the 45' threshold.
The massing model has been amended to dimensionally show the setbacks both horizontally and vertically
to confinn that the building complies with the required set backs.
#47 The landscape plan - Insure that the plant quantities must match between the tabular data and
the graphic illustration.
The landscape plan has been modified pursuant to other revisions (see # 54 below) and in doing so the
plant quantities have been con finned to match between the tabular data and match between the tabular data
and graphic illustration.
#52 Staff recommends increasing the size of the new sable palm tree clusters proposed to the
southeast, southwest, and northeast corner at varying heights between 20 feet and 28 over all
feet.
The landscape plan has been revised to increase the size of the sable palm tree clusters as recommended.
#53. Staff recommends installing 14' to 16' tall Montgomery or Alexander palm trees within the west
landscape (within the planter areas) proposed between the doorways and the brakes in the
windows.
Landscape plan has been revised to reflect Montgomery or Alexander palm trees along the west buffer as
recommended.

#54. Staff recommends installing more brick pavers within the front plazas in order to increase the size
of pedestrian/public gathering space, there by meeting the intent of the MU-L zoning district. In
any case Staff determined there would still be enough room to install (2) additional Fox Tail palm
trees along Federal Highway. The Fox Tail palm trees should be installed at a height of 18' to 20'.
The brick paver area in the front of the building has been modified pllfSuant to our discussions with staff.
The paver area also includes three wells to accommodate the recommended Fox Tail palm trees.
#55 Staff recommends utilizing aluminum frame work inside the window openings of the parking
garage in order to enhance their appearance.
Based on modified elevations that were provided previously, it is our understanding that this condition of
approval can be removed.
#56 Staff recommends adding more architectural elements and accents to all facades to enhance
the overall appearance of the building.
Pursuant to revised elevations that were provided previously, we understand that the architectural elements
and accents that have been added to the building satisfY the recommendations of Staff and therefore this
comment and condition can be removed.
We trust that these modifications will satisfy the recommendations of Staff and also the CRA Board. Should
you need any additional information as we proceed toward the April 12th CRA Board meeting, please do
not hesitate to call.
Sincerely,
MILLER LAND PLANNING CONSULTANTS, INC.

BOYNTON BEACH LOFTS BUILDING MASS AND HEIGHT NARRATIVE
The significant -yet fascinating- impact of the proposed structure on Federal Highway is to be minimized, while
enhancing its image and presence, by virtually "sculpting" the edifice; recessing its various volumetric
components at different levels (up to 24'-8" to the face of the balconies at the northeast and southeast corners of
the building and 28'-8" to the fac;ade itself). The end result being an unusually attractive "urban" artifact that will
certainly become a reference and a landmark once erected.
Meticulous attention has been paid to the heights, sticking to the maximum ones allowed, but also taking into
obvious consideration functional and safety factors. Therefore the roof height of the East structure (the tallest
one) is 68'-8" with three elements on top it: a stairwell that provides access to the top of the building for
emergencies and maintenance -with a maximum height of 78'-2", at is surrounding parapet- 3'-2" above the limit
of 75'-0"; and elevator core -with a maximum height at its surrounding parapet of 76'-0"- 1'-0" above the 75'-0",
both at the northern portion of the structure, and an ornamental parapet that reaches the 75'-0" that indicates the
location of the second (south) stairwell required for life safety reasons. It should be additionally pointed out that
these three elements, on the roof top, are placed away from the Federal Highway fac;ade of the building, which
make them barely visible from the street, but pretty much from a larger distance and giving the edification a
dynamic and provocative appearance.
As for the West structure, with a similar architectural compositional criteria, the maximum height reached is 68'-8";
that is 6'-4" below the 75'-0" extreme.

the non-residential portion of the proposed project meets the Traffic Performance

after the build-out date, specified above. The County traffic concurrency approval is

This particular matter being considered by the Community Redevelopment Agency
on April 12. 2005 (having been previously tabled from an earlier meeting) should be on the
agenda for the City Commission meeting of April 19. 2005. Please let me remind you that
the City Commission voted it to table it to that date at an open meeting. I do not believe
that there is authority to rescind that vote.
I know that there is a policy about waiting between CRA meetings and City
Commission meetings but, that particular policy is subordinate it to an actual vote by the
City Commission tabling a matter to a date certain. If you review the record of that
meetin , a sure you will derstand our position.
