Dear Mr. Cohen:
Enclosed is the Development Order granted by the City Commission on December 18, 2007. The site plan approval is valid
for eighteen months from the date of final approval. In order to maintain vested status, a building permit must be secured or an
extension requested prior to expiration.
To continue this project through the development process, please revise relevant pages of your approved site plan to
incorporate all conditions of approval as applicable. A copy ofthe Development Order, including these conditions, must
accompany the submission of the fully amended site plan set. The person managing your permit applications should be made
aware of any additional documents and third party letters listed in the conditions of approval that need to be submitted with
your permit package.
The Building Division is committed to speedy and efficient completion of the building permit process for your project.
However, please note that failure to meet all applicable Development Order conditions in the submitted plan set may produce
unnecessary delays in permit issuance. A thorough review will be conducted by the Plan Review Analyst and if the necessary
documentation is not attached and/or the plans are not amended to reflect all of the approval conditions, the plans will be
returned to the applicant for correction and re-submittal before the permit is further processed. Feel free to contact any TART
member for additional clarification of comments.
Important: If you plan to introduce any changes to your approved site plan beyond those required by conditions of approval,
please contact our staff for a review before submitting a permit package to the Building Division.
A copy of the complete Development Order and Amended Site Plans reflecting the "Conditions of Approval" must be
submitted to the Building Department along with the first permit request to avoid any delays in the processing of your
permit
Should you have any questions regarding this matter, please feel free to contact this office at (561) 742-6260.
Sincerely, -.

Meeting Minutes
Planning and Development board
Boynton Beach, Florida
November 27,2007
Mr. Saberson agreed with comments made by Mr. Lis. He objected to the height of the
structure and would rather it be spread out. He believed staff had correctly analyzed
the criteria for a variance, and although circumstances were unique, they still did not
meet the criteria. Ms. Jaskiewicz agreed the applicant had not met the requirements as
staff indicated.
Mr. Barnes believed visibility was not the issue, and the problem pertained to the
number of floors requested. He added many hotels agreed to the lower height
restrictions. He felt the only peculiar condition of the property was that it did not meet
the Holiday Innis expectations or requirements and believed the basis for the variance
request was not accurate
Mr. Blehar expressed disappointment in the low turnout for the Leisureville community.
He believed the architect did a good job of breaking up the five stories, and making it
an attractive building. However, he agreed with staff's viewpoint that the case for
allowing the height variance was weak.
Acting Chair Casaine indicated he was in favor of the project and believed it was
necessary. However, he believed the recommendations offered by staff were valid and
should be further explored. He would like to see the organization represented have the
amount of rooms sought, providing they met the criteria presented by staff. He did not
believe the location was a problem. Holiday Inns were managed well and patronized for
their competitive rates. While he observed wide support for the project and would like
to see it go forward, he indicated his agreement with staff's recommendations.
Motion
Mr. Saberson moved that the variance requested be denied. Mr. Lis seconded the
motion that passed unanimously.

Meeting Minutes

November 27, 2007
on 7.966 acres zoned PUD.
Mr. Breese reviewed the request. The site was approved in 2006 by this board and the
City Commission for the 34 townhouse units. The property was subsequently sold and
the approvals expired prior to the new owner's application for the necessary permits.
The subject site plan was nearly identical to the previous project. The noted
modifications included the introduction of garages, elimination of the lift station and
dumpsters against the west property line, and the facades were changed slightly with
the inclusion of the garages. The two-story units within the seven townhouse buildings
were arranged along the lake in clusters of four and six units in each building. The
units would consist of three-bedrooms and 2.5 baths, with air-conditioned living areas
ranging between 1,573 and 1,588 square feet. The plan indicated a landscaped berm
15 feet in width between the proposed parcel and Nautica Sound, with Areca palms
planted on top, ranging at approximately 18 feet in height. Staff recommended any
gaps in the landscaped berm be filled in with like-sized Areca palms to proVide the
necessary buffer. Planned Unit Development (PUD) regulations required that perimeter
buffers matched the setbacks of adjacent properties. The Nautica Sound rear setback
against the property line was 15 feet. The closest building within this project was at 26
feet, 4 inches and was five feet further from Nautica Sound than the previously-
approved site plan. Staff recommended approval of the site plan, subject to the
satisfaction of the conditions of approval in Exhibit C.
Steven Cohen, architect for the project, and representing the applicant, advised he
was the original architect on the project. He met with Nautica Sound relating to
problems on the site. Thereafter, additional landscaping was added along the berm
and the berm was modified to provide greater protection. The client then sold the
project and the new client wished to improve the project, and add townhomes. Pricing
was intended to start at below $300,000. The dumpsters were removed, as the
garages were designed in a manner that the trash cans could be stored in the garages
and put out during trash pickups.
Acting Chair Casaine invited public comments.
Ms. Grcevic suggested the applicant remove the grass in between the driveways in
order to facilitate water conservation. Mr. Cohen believed the suggestion was valid and
agreed to have the grass removed.
Diane Schrader, 7164 Chesapeake Circle, indicated she would be personally impacted
by the project, and contended no one had ever come to any meeting and met with
anybody as a group in their community, and that no one in Nautica Sound was aware of
this project. Last year she met with City Officials and requested the property be
flipped. Costs associated with moving the utilities precluded flipping the property. She

believed the project would impact 90 homes, and felt the issues which existed in 2006
still existed, with the exception of the modifications proposed. She contended a City file
contained a document relating to a pre-application conference review, which contained
a notation by Mr. Breese indicating the allotted amount of units were built for tracts G
and H. She argued if the 36 units were surplus, the Property Owners Association for
the PUD would need to authorize the reallocation of the units. She requested
clarification from Mr. Breese.
Mr. Breese pointed out the Master Plan had to be modified to accommodate the use
and this was done last year when approval was rendered. The modification was
authorized by the Property Owners Association before it was approved by the City
Commission.
Ms. Schrader inquired as to the manner in which the property could be flipped. Mr.
Cohen advised he discussed with Mr. Breese, Mr. Rumpf and the City Manager the
concept of flipping. Alternatives were considered which would have been very costly to
the developers, as all the existing utilities would have to be relocated. Garages were
added to the units, dumpsters were removed in favor of trash cans, and most of the
lighting was removed. They redesigned the berm, adding 30% more landscaping, and
replaced trees. The applicant's consultant met with the president of the association and
reviewed the plans. The president had no objection to the project.
Ms. Schrader acknowledged a meeting did occur between the association's president
and the applicant's representative, Mr. Katz. However, the association's president did
not advise the residents of the meeting or his approval of the proposal. She believed
the property could be flipped and requested the board defer voting on this item until
the association had an opportunity to be heard. She contended the association's agent
was not properly noticed with regard to this Planning and Development meeting.
Acting Chair Casaine advised this item was approved by the board last year and went
before the Commission with the understanding that the applicant would meet with a
representative of the residents. As evidenced, that meeting did occur. Acting Chair
Casaine did not believe it was this board's responsibility to notify everyone on the board
of Nautica Sound, nor was it the applicant's responsibility. The applicant met with the
association's president. The fact that he did not provide the proper notification was not
the fault of this board. He believed the applicant had lived up to his responsibility in
communicating with the president of Nautica Sound's Association.
Ms. Grcevic inquired whether the modified the plans called for town homes, or whether
more apartments could have been constructed. Mr. Breese advised they could have
built apartments instead of town homes and would only have been allowed to build 35
units. They are building 34.

Ms. Schrader expressed appreciation for the board's assistance but objected to the
notification of only ten days, for which she believed the City was at fault.
No one else having come forward, public comments were closed.
Mr. Cohen indicated they did meet with the City Manager and with Mr. Breese with
respect to the project and had worked with the City to make this a viable project.
Ms. Grcevic pOinted out she resided in Nautica Sound and would prefer this project to a
car wash or other commercial project.
Mr. Blehar inquired whether there was a fence on the west property line. Mr. Cohen
replied he believed there was a fence on the property. However, there was a large
berm on the applicant's side of the property which would be reconfigured to prevent
water runoff. Mr. Blehar inquired whether there was adequate access for the sanitation
trucks. Mr. Breese advised an evaluation had been made and the trucks could make
the turn.
Mr. Lis inquired whether the surface of the lake area still met minimum requirements.
Mr. Breese advised that type of review was done in the permitting process. They did
preliminarily consider the design, but the actual drainage review occurred at the time of
permitting. Mr. Cohen added that particular lake was not a retention lake, but an
aesthetic lake.
Ms. Jaskiewicz expressed appreciation for the increased landscaping and other
improvements.
Acting Chair Casaine pointed out there were 43 staff comments. Mr. Cohen advised
most of the comments were agreed to and taken care of.
Mr. Breese advised the project as proposed complied with the Code of the City of
Boynton Beach. Staff recommended approval with the conditions set forth.
Motion
Ms. Jaskiewicz moved to approve the request for a site plan approval for 34 townhouse
units subject to all 43 conditions of approval and also taking into consideration the
board's recommendation with regard to the driveway area, and removal of the grass in
between the driveways. Mr. Barnes seconded the motion.

Request for a major site plan modification for
the addition of an approximately 3,162 square
foot mausoleum building, on a 0.93 acre
parcel zoned PU Public Usage.
Mr. Breese advised the proposal was for a 3,162 square foot mausoleum structure.
Boynton Beach Mausoleum entered into a 3D-year lease agreement with the City in
1978 to construct and maintain mausoleum structures with crypts, niches and a chapel
along the west side of the cemetery. The landscape plan would be similar to the rest of
the mausoleum structures. The design would provide for a hedge along the east side
of the mausoleum, adjacent to the circulation drive. The building design was proposed
to match the other buildings already on the site. Three sides of the building would
consist of polished marble, with marble edging and limestone fascia. The fourth side
(south elevation) was proposed as a stucco finish with marble edging and limestone
fascia. The building was designed at approximately 16 feet in height, well within the 45
feet allowed in the Public Usage (PU) zoning district. It appeared as though the
building as designed would not fit completely on the 40 foot wide lease area. A
condition of approval required the building be modified or sited to avoid any
encroachments and to ensure its placement was within the lease area as indicated in
the agreement with the applicant. Staff recommended approval of the request.
Ms. Jaskiewicz inquired whether the condition had been resolved. Mr. Breese advised
staff had discussions with the applicant and he did not foresee a prOblem with the
condition.
Jason Mankoff, Weiner & Aronson, P.A., advised they had accepted all the conditions
of approval, and the issue had been resolved. The architect was drawing up the plans
indicating the building was within the 40 foot wide area, and the plans would be
submitted to the City some time next week.
