EXPLANATION: On August 27, 2003, Procurement Services received and opened six (6) proposals. The proposals have been reviewed and it was determined that Advance Generator Sales was the most responsive, responsible bidder who met all specifications. Because response time is a concern, geographic location is imperative. Response ti ~rg~f°re~ Condo Electric from Hialeah is (2) hours and past references have shown where the response was slow. Advan~L*' Generator is located in Royal Palm Beach and stated that the response time is ½ hour. The primary costs are~l~or~~ rates and the related cost of travel time, it conceivably seems that Advance Generator is the lowest, most respl~siv~ responsible bidder. Jeffrey Livergood, Public Works Director concurs with this recommendation (see memo PROGRAM IMPACT: The purpose of this bid is to secure prices for a period of two (2) years for Maintenai~e/P~ and Repair (labor & parts) for emergency diesel/propane (26) power generator sets located throughout the Ry. FISCAL IMPACT: The costs have been individually allocated to various account numbers by user departments.

Upon review by Tony Lombardi, Utilities Supervisor and myself, it has been determined that Advance Generator was the apparent low bidder based on labor and travel time. Advance Generator's Labor rate is $39.00 per hour and their response time from Royal Palm Beach is ½ hour. Condo Electric's hourly rate is $40.00 and response time is 2 hours traveling from Hialeah. Advance Generator has been servicing our Generators for the past several contract periods and they have provided us with exceptional service and quick response time.

Funding is available in ITS Account 001-1511-513-49-17. The cost for this initiative is $25,000 (Exhibit A - Proposal Attached). Geographic Technologies Group Inc. (GTG) is the only vendor that can provide this service, due to the proprietary nature of the H.T.E. database code (Exhibit B - Press Release). Please see the attached sole-source letter from GTG (Exhibit C). EXPLANATION: Eighty percent (80%) of all of the city's enterprise data is referenced by an address. This project updates the H.T.E. Land Management (LX) Database with accurate spatial information. Currently the H.T.E. LX database is 60.4% inaccurate: out of every 10 H.T.E permit records selected, 6 will contain incorrect address information. Please see the attached statistics for the results of the project from Phases 1 & 2 (Exhibit D). PROGRAM IMPACT: The completion of Phases 3 and 4 of the H.T.E.

HTE LX Clean-up and LGAddress Software Overview: The City of Boynton Beach has sought a solution to update its existing HTE Land Management Database with accurate spatial information fi.om its GIS databases. GTG has proposed a phased approach to obtain an accurate point based address layer for The City of Boynton Beach with a one-to-one relationship with the existing LX module of HTE software system. Based on the completion of Phase's I and II of this project, the implementation of LGAddress software will be implemented to ensure the city can continue the maintenance of it's address locations. In addition, the population of spatially related information will be back-populated in this project to allow for further leveraging ofgeospatially stored information. Now that the City has an accurate and complete point based address theme, the visualization of all HTE related databases (BP, OL, CE, CX, WF) can be possible in LGviewer. Phase III: Install LGAddress software fi.om HTE. This software package allows for the graphical maintenance and placement of LX record in the HTE database. This will allow for the bulk update and overlay of GIS layers to maintain spatial attributes in HTE, These include Commission District Zoning Land use Inspection District In/Out of City Subdivision Fire Zone Jurisdiction During this phase of the project GTG will aid the City in standardizing the table driven codes in LX and the codes for the above-mentioned GIS layers to coincide with each other. This standardization of code values will be pertinent in completing Phase IV of the project. All LX record not mapped through automated services will be mapped using LGAdclress. GTG and the City will work together to determine solutions for those LX records that pose issues to GTG making a sole decision. Deliverable: Installation and training of LGAddress. A complete address point layer and standardized GIS layers. Phase IV: Phase IV is the bulk update of LX records leveraging GIS databases, Once this perform all spatial fields of THE LXLIB.LMABREP will be updated with information from the GIS. This will be completed by using a detail SQL script to update each record based on its X, Y location. Deliverable: A SQL script for the update and processing of LX records against the GIS databases.

(NASDAQ: HTEI), a leading provider of enterprise-wide software, Internet, and wireless solutions for public sector organizations and utilities, today announced it has formed a strategic alliance with Geographic Technologies Group, Inc. (GTG), experts in Geographic Information Systems (GIS), to be the exclusive provider of computerized mapping products and services to extend the functionality of HTE's government and utilities software. GTG's software, used for mapping and analyzing spatial data, has become one of local governments' most valuable tools for planning, cost reduction, and decision-making. GIS technology layers information from databases onto interactive maps drawn using aerial imagery, parcel maps, site plans, blueprints and Global Positioning System (GPS) satellites. '¥Ve're taking GTG's sophisticated GIS products and gearing them specifically to our applications, giving our customers more powerful management resources than they have ever had before," said Bill Barnett, HTE's vice president of integrated product solutions. Barnett said GTG was selected because of its depth of knowledge and widespread recognition as a leader in GIS technology. "They're the best at what they do," said Barnett. "Our strategic alliance with HTE allows us to integrate user-friendly GIS analytical tools into the day-to-day work flow of local governments," said David Holdstock, GTG's CEO. "The underlying technologies are complex, but the results are simple and easy to use. We basically assimilate all we know about an area and show it graphically in an uncomplicated way. Using ESRI's development platform, our specialized team offers exciting and innovative opportunities for HTE customers interested in harnessing the power of GIS to improve the quality of life in their communities." Peter Wallace, Director of Information Technology Services for the City of Boynton Beach, FL, an HTE customer since 1987, said he believes the HTE-GTG alliance opens a world of possibilities for government agencies and the citizens they serve. "Geographic information systems are the future of information technology, and being able to tie them into financial and other data on our enterprise systems is fantastic," he said. Boynton Beach's GIS Coordinator, Regina Hagger, said the advantages will first be realized by city employees but will quickly reach the citizens directly. "We'll be able to take the information that runs the city and geographically enable it for so many practical uses. One of our first initiatives is to centralize all of our data, map it and make it accessible to all employees, so we can help our citizens more effectively. But the next step will be to give our residents direct access to the information. "Imagine how helpful it would be to pull up a map of the area's flood plains before you began house hunting, or to see where the nearest parks are, and what their operating hours are, all from your home computer or a kiosk located in a public building. These applications are not just for power users, they are for everyone," Hagger said. GTG's Looking Glass (LG) suite of products, developed exclusively for HTE, will initially interface with HTE's CAD400, CRIMES Records Management System, and land-based applications for work orders, code enforcement, business licenses, utilities, and building permits. "The demand for mapping and geo-spatial tools has risen dramatically as local government agencies gear up to comply with new federal regulations that require detailed reports on infrastructure and public assets such as bridges, roads and water systems," Holdstock said. "Many governments are developing their own strategic plans for implementing enterprise-wide GIS programs." Barnett said bringing GTG's expertise to HTE's enterprise suite of software will allow users to perform common tasks and operations with greater ease and accuracy. Law enforcement officials, for example, will be able to view a map showing all active 911 calls in their jurisdiction and inspect area maps to quickly spot trends in criminal activity. Police officials might use the information to determine where new substations should be built, to reassign staff to busier areas or to establish community outreach programs in neighborhoods at high risk. City planners and public works officials could simultaneously view sewer lines, power lines, flood plains, roadways, fire stations, and other structures to make better decisions on land use and development. Utility managers could view their utility meters by type or location to facilitate replacement or repair. "The possibilities are endless, limited only by the users' imagination," Barnett said. "This was one of the highlights of last month's HTE Users Group (HUG) educational conference in Las Vegas. Customers were watching the demo, already thinking of ways they could use this technology to do their jobs better." Exhibit B Page 2 of 2 Geographic Technologies Group Inc.

Finance / Human Resources DRAFT United Forward Tnc.& UF Fluid Systems, !nc. Request for CDBG Economic Development Program Assistance Tuesday, July 2, 2002 [n addiUon to the Palm Beach County Office of Economic Development's Deve/opment Rog~ohs Program, Palm Beach County also offers funding for economic development projects under the Community Development Block Grant Program. The Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD), which administers the County's CDBG Program, will make available up to $7:t4~800 for the funding of economic development activities in FY 2002-03. This sum represents 10% of the County's FY 2002-03 total CDBG entitlement. The purpose of this set-aside is to provide grant funding to eligible applicants to create or retain jobs for Iow- and moderate-income persons. Applications are due to the county by 3uly 26th for requests of $50,000 or more. Entitlement communities such as the City of Boynton Beach (greater than 50,000 in population and receive their money directly) are required to provide a dollar- for-dollar match, or a minimum of $50,000 match for their projects. These entitlement community projects must also meet other criteria, with respect to employment and procurement-a certain percentage of new jobs must go to Iow and moderate income persons who live in the unincorporated parts of the county and the Company must follow county procurement procedures (unless they can provide justification for a single-source contract, meaning there are no other suppliers of a particular project). United Forward, ThC. (~UF") & UF Fluid Systems !nc. (~UF Systems"), are Rorida-based C: Corporations located in Boca Raton and Boynton Beach respectively. United Forward, [nc. is the parent corporation, active in international sales of (automotive, oil & gas, metals and natural resource) products and consulting services (export/import, manufacturing, engineering, hydraulics, new product development, project management, financing and transportation)' UF was founded in 1996 by Pavel Rodnevsld and has grown steadily in terms of sales and services to Eastern Europe and Russia. [n 2001, UF with their subsidiary organization, UF Ruid Systems [nc. initiated an expansion into manufacturing automotive fuel hose~ in the United State~. This project is further defined in the 5 phases described below: · Phase !indudes acquiring the 26,235 square foot building located at '1020 Thor Drive in Boynton Beach, immediately west of !-95. · Phase Ti involves obtaining final bids for purchase of the first extrusion line (manufacturing equipment) from Davis Standard · Phase [Ti Involves making necessary improvements to the building to make it more functional and effldent for their business and manufacturing activities. · Phase W includes purchasing neo~__~ry equipment to run the two types of rubber pipe manufacturing assembly lines (1"~ Extrusion Uno from Davis Standard). SUBJECT OF DEVELOPIVlENT REG!ONS GRANT APPLtCATZON. · Phase V, the subject of this. CDBG requests, includes purchasing and. installing the 2"~ Extrusion Uno necessary for manufacturing purposes. UF expects to add two additional phases at a later time. · Phase V[ Activities to indude the purchase and installation of a third extrusion line and active production of product on this line in 6/03. · Phase VE Activities indude full production on site As previously stated UF/UF Systems are being considered for a 2002 Development Regions grant (request amount $50,000 PBC and $25,000 City of. Boynton Beach) for Phase [V of their project and this CDBG request is for Phase V. UF has pledged to create 10 new full-time equivalent jobs under the Development Regions Program and will pledge to create 10 additional new full-time equivalent jobs under the CDBG grant (This exceeds the Department of Housing and Community Development's requirement of one job for every $15,000 of County money received = 3.3 FTE jobs). Please note the CDBG grant program requires that 51% of these new jobs go to Iow-and- moderate income persons and that more than 30 percent of the jobs created/retained must be occupied by residents of the unincorporated county or one of the participating municipalities in the Urban County Program. All positions must be advertised with the Workforce Development Board. Under the CDBG Economic Development Program Guidelines, Palm Beach County will take a security interest in the equipment purchased (with County dollars) and will monitor the project for up to 8 years (depending on the useful life of the equipment). UF & UF Systems would like to apply to Palm Beach County for a $50,000 grant from CDBG Economic Development Program for assistance in purchasing necessary manufacturing equipment. This would require a $50,000 matching grant from the City of Boynton Beach. The attached Seurces and Uses Statement describes the respective phases of the project and the associated (expected) costs for each. C~ualified estimates for the first four phases of the project were provided in the Hay lO~ 2002 ~lnitedFomarff~ and UF Fluid ~ystem~ Inc, Development Re~ions Program Application received by the City of Boynton Beach's Community Development Office.

This sign is located at the easternmost entrance to the site. However, as the sign is located on the subject property, it counts toward the allowed signage for the proposed use of the entire site.

Staff responses to selected items are as follows: a. That spec/a/cond/b'ons and circumstances ex/st wh/ch are pecu//ar to the/and/nvo/ved and wh/ch are not app//cable to other/ands; and b. That the spec/a/cond/b'ons and drcumstances do not result from the act/ons of the app//cant. Compared with other similar mulU-building office projects within the city (i.e. Congress Corporate Center or Page 3 Memorandum No PZ-03-279 First Southern Bank ZNCV 03-021 Woolbdght Corporate Center), the subject property is smaller in size and the subject buildings are closer to the adjacent right-of-way. Although the Woolbright Corporate Center has only one entrance, the site is much larger than the subject property which also requires decision making on the part of the patron, once within the site, to locate the proper building for the intended desitination. The subject request has been generated as a result of the applicant's intention to provide an additional freestanding sign. The existing sign is currently, neady fully occupied by tenants from the first building leaving little space for future tenants of building two. Therefore, the actions of the applicant have created the special conditions and circumstances. d. That literal interpretab'on of the provisions of this ordinance would deprive the applicant of rights commonly enjoyed by other properties in the same zoning d/st#ct under the terms of the ordinance and would work unnecessary and undue hardship on the applicant. The response from staff for the preceding item indicates that the literal intepretaUon of the ordinance will maintain consistency in its applicaUon. Given that site plans are reviewed and approved iniUally for compliance with regulaUons and conformance with quality design and compaUbility objectives, granUng of the subject request could represent a special privilege not typically conferred to others. This statement is justified by the fact that relief would represent the lowering of standards to which other site plans are held. The provisions of this ordinance does not deprive the applicant of any rights enjoyed by others. Although not totally comparable, shopping centers are allowed more than one sign, but only in conjunction with additional street frontages. The subject property is relaUvely small and has one street frontage. e. That the variance granted is the m/n/mum variance that will make possible the reasonable use of the /and, building, or structure. This request does not represent the minimum variance to make reasonable use of the buildings. The existing sign and both buildings can accommodate the necessary addressing and signage to further idenUfy and distinguish them as two separate, addressed buildings. f. That the granb'ng of the variance wi1/be in harmony w/th the genera/intent and purpose of this chapter [ordinance] and that such variance w#/ not be injurious to the area involved or otherwise detrimental to the public we/fare. Staff disagrees, as approval of this request would be in contradiction with the purpose and intent of the regulaUons. As described herein, the intent of the sign regulaUons is to minimize unnecessary signs. The Land Development Regulations, Chapter 2:[, Article IV, secUon 2 (B) limits uses within commercial nonresidenUal districts (excluding shopping centers) to one (:[) double-faced freestanding sign that adverUses the use of the premises. Section 2. B reads as follows: "One (:[) double-faced freestanding sign advertising t~e use of ttYe premJse~. The max/mum area for this sign shall be one (~l) square foot of area for each//near foot of street frontage/no such sign shall exceed s/xty-four square feet in area. No sign shall be taller than twenty (20) feet." This applicaUon for the First Southern Bank development represents a request for relief from this section of the city's regulaUons in order to allow two (2) freestanding site signs. The existing site sign was approved as an :[8-foot high, 63.7 square foot monument sign (maximum allowable - one 20 foot high, 6a, square foot double faced freestanding sign). The additional proposed :[8-foot high, 63.7 square foot sign will cause the development to far exceed the maximum allowed sign area of 6~ square feet. Page 4 Memorandum No PZ-03-279 First Southern Bank ZNCV 03-021 Article II of this same chapter describes those sections of the code (or aspects of a sign) that can be varied from code through this variance process. According to Article 2, Section 1 "The board of zoning appeals may grant a variance if it finds that the unusual shape or topography of the property in quest'on prevents signage allowable under the provisions of this ordinance from adequately identif~hg the bus/ness or other activity located on such property. The board of zon/ng appeals may only grant a variance to: A. Al/ow a setback/ess than that required under this chapter: B. Al/ow the area and/or height of a sign to be increased by up to twenty-five percent of the maximum allowable height or area; or ¢. Allow the number of sign to be increase over the maximum a/lowed by this code." An applicaUon for relief from Chapter 21, "Signs" is processed similar to a request for relief from Chapter 2, "Zoning'; including a similar applicaUon and noUfication requirements. According to the applicaUon, two (2) site signs are needed to provide individual site signage for two separate buildings: signage to seperately idenUfy and advertise the use of the easternmost building (1700 W Woolbdght Rd.), and the westernmost building (1800 W. Woolbdght Rd)..]ust as driveways are seperated for safety reasons, signs are best minimized and seperated for aestheUc reasons. The proposed sign would be placed only approximately 250 feet from the existing sign. Staff summarizes its review by the following points: 1) Staff disagrees with the necessity for an additional freestanding sign based on the posiUon that the majodty of future patrons will not represent passer-by motorists but destinaUon-based motorists who were aware of the IocaUon by address of the subject use upon iniUating their flip; 2) The subject request will make the development exceed the allowable sign area required by 63.,{ square feet; 3) The project includes large buildings with strong articulated fa~des that alone provides idenUficaUon for local traffic even after landscaping matures; ~,) The property's shape and topography does not prevent signage under the code provisions to . adequately identify the business or other activity on the property; 5) The parking faciliUes are connected between beth buildings, allowing freedom of movement between each, no matter which entrance is utilized my the motorist; and 6) Directory signs are allowed for each building within the site itself (parking lot or adjacent to the building) to guide the public accordingly. CONCLUSZONS/RECOMMENDA'I'ZQI~ Based on the aestheUc impacts of numerous site signs, and large (or high) site signs, and the desire of the city to maintain signage in scale and compaUble with corresponding and adjacent uses, unnecessary signage should be avoided. Staff recommends that this vadance request to allow two (2) site signs for the subject project be denied. No condiUons of approval are recommended, however, any condiUons recommended by the Board, or required by the City Commission, shall be included in Exhibit "D" - CondiUons of Approval. Page 5 Memorandum No PZ-03-279 First Southern Bank ZNCV 03-021 However, if the City Commission chooses to support additional signage for this project, to minimize visual impacts, the following should be considered: 1) AIIthough not supported by a hardship, staff would prefer that the existing site sign be modified to increase the sign copy space, below the existing sign copy space, if designed to maintain its appearance; 2) If the additional site sign is allowed as proposed, a variance application must be processed to allow square footage in excess of the maximum sign area allowed; 3) ff an additional site sign is allowed through variance approval, the second entrance sign should be designed compatible with the existing sign features (e.g. material, configuration, etc.), and not exceed 12 feet in height; and It should be noted that Staff is recommending amendments to the sign ordinance to limit the maximum height of freestanding signs on properties such as the subject site to 12 feet. The site sign being proposed in this application is inconsistent with the proposed changes.

EXPLANATION: PROJECT: Boynton Beach Faith Based Community Development Corporation North Palm Way (ZNCV 03-022) AGENT: Daivd Zimet, Boynton Beach Community Development Corporation OWNER: Boynton Beach Faith Based Community Development Corporation LOCATION: Lot 2 north Palm Way, approximately 80 feet east of Seacrest Boulevard DESCRIPTION: Request for relief from City of Boynton Beach Land Development Regulations, Chapter 2, Zoning Section 5.F.2.a, requiring a rear yard set back of 25 feet, to allow a variance of six (6) feet or a rear setback of 19 feet for a single-family house in a R- 1 zoning district.

Variance Request: Relief from Chapter 2, Zoning Section 5.F.2.a, to allow a single-family home to be constructed with a rear set back of 19 feet, a variance of six (6) feet from the 25 foot setback required for a single-family house in a R-1 zoning district. BACKGROUND The subject property and surrounding neighborhood is currently zoned R-l, single-family residential district (see Exhibit "A" - Location map). The Rolling Green Ridge subdivision was platted in 1957 with typical lot frontages between 55 feet to 60 feet and approximately 6,300 square feet in size (see Exhibit "B" - Rolling Green Ridge Subdivision, Seacrest Addition). Within that subdivision several lots were configured with rear property lines that resemble a "V" shape. David Zimet of the Boynton Beach Faith Based Community Development Corporation (CDC) is requesting the above-referenced variance. As part of their affordable homes program, the CDC is proposing to construct a single-family home on an original platted parcel (see Exhibit "C" - Survey/Site plan). The total site contains 5,200 square feet and is sixty- (60) feet wide. It is a non-conforming lot because it does not meet the minimum lot area required in the R-1 zoning district. The parcels on both sides of the subject property are developed. Lastly, it should also be noted that code provisions exist for non-conforming lots, which reduce the setbacks as a percentage of lot depth and lot width. Based on these provisions of Section 11.1 (C)(7), the subject lot is eligible for a reduced rear setback totaling approximately 21 feet. The requirements to build a single-family dwelling unit within the R-1 zoning district, compared to the subject lot are as follow: -Required lot frontage: 60 feet -proposed lot frontage: 60 feet -Required lot area: 6,000 square feet -proposed lot area: 5,200 square feet -Required building rear setback: 25 feet -proposed building rear setback: 19 feet (Except as noted above) The construction of a single-family home with the above referenced characteristics requires the vadance as descdbed herein. Page 2 Boynton Beach CDC variance File No. ZNCV 03-022 Staff surveyed the area and it was observed that the majority of dwelling units in the neighborhood are detached single-family homes, built on standard lots prior to modem regulations. City records show that a total of two (2) properties within the Rolling Green Ridge Subdivision Seacrest Addition have been the subjects of variance approvals since 1975. One of these approvals was for rear yard setback for a lot with different characteristics than the subject parcel. ANALYSIS The code states that the zoning code variance cannot be approved unless the board finds the following: a. That special conditions and circumstances exist which are peculiar to the land,' structure, or building involved and which are not applicable to other lands, structures or buildings in the same zoning district. b. That the special conditions and circumstances do not result from the actions of the applicant. c. That granting the variance requested will not confer on the applicant any special privilege that is denied by this ordinance to other lands, buildings, or structures in the same zoning district. d. That literal interpretation of the provisions of this ordinance would deprive the applicant of rights commonly enjoyed by other properties in the same zoning district under the terms of the ordinance and would work unnecessary and undue hardship on the applicant. e. That the variance granted is the minimum variance that will make possible the reasonable use of the land, building, or structure. f. That the granting of the variance will be in harmony with the general intent and purpose of this chapter [ordinance] and that such variance will not be injurious to the area involved or otherwise detrimental to the public welfare. Staff reviewed the requested variance focusing on the applicant's response to the above criteria contained in Exhibit 'D". Within this subdivision the vast majority of the lots are rectangular-shaped with exception of four (4) lots. These lots are shaped differently, where the rear of the property is shaped in a 'V" form. Staff acknowledges that the subject parcel exhibits special conditions and circumstances related to lot configuration, which are not the result of actions by the applicant, therefore satisfying criteria "a" and "b" above. Nevertheless, these special conditions and circumstances do not prevent the development potential of the subject lot since the other three (3) similarly-shaped parcels have been developed for single-family homes meeting all the setback requirements. Staff acknowledges that the approval of the variance may confer special privileges to the applicant since single-family homes have been developed, even on lots with the same characteristics, without variances. Therefore, denial of this variance request would not deprive the applicant of the rights already enjoyed by others. Consequently, staff feels that criteria "c"and "d"are not satisfied. With respect to criterion "e', which regards the magnitude of the variance relative to reasonable use of the property, a unit design (approximately 1,325 square feet) has been selected which would meet the front yard setback and side yard setbacks, but would encroach into the rear setback (see Exhibit uC" - Survey/Site plan). Staff acknowledges that this request does not represent the minimum variance to make reasonable use of the land and the structure. The applicant can meet the rear yard setback by reducing the building footprint. This action would also reduce the building area to approximately 1,100 square feet, which is still more than the minimum living area required. Page 3 Boynton Beach CDC variance File No. ZNCV 03-022 CONCLUSIONS/RECOMMENDATION Staff recognizes that the applicant wants to offer greater living space within the proposed home as opposed to the existing single-family houses in the neighborhood; however, staff believes that a house meeting all setback regulations and minimum square footage requirements can be constructed within the current building envelope, even thoUgh smaller than the design proposed by the CDC, per the R-1 zoning district regulations. Therefore, staff recommends that this request by Boynton Beach Community Development Corporation for a variance from the City of Boynton Beach Land Development Regulations, Chapter 2, Zoning, Section 5.F.2.a., requiring a twenty-five (25) foot rear yard setback to allow a 6-foot variance and a 19-foot rear yard setback for the purpose of constructing a single-family residence, be denied. However, if the Board and/or City Commission choose to approve this request based on the special merits of this request and not on traditional hardship, staff concludes the following: 1. The construction of the single-family residence will not impact negatively on adjacent property values; and 2. The requested variances will support local affordable housing goals and initiatives, and will increase the values of the community while decreasing blighted conditions in the neighborhood; 3. Rear setbacks regulations are being evaluated as part of the Land Development Regulations rewrite, and preliminarily, the subject circumstance would be one that staff desires to have accommodated by future amendments. No conditions of approval are recommended; however, any conditions of approval recommended by the Planning and Development Board or City Commission will be placed in Exhibit "E".

E.2.a North Palm Way 5. Statement of special conditions, hardships or reasons justifying the requested exception or variance. The property is an empty lot on which the Boynton Beach Faith Based CDC wishes to build a home for a client. The house will be an owner-occupied residence, not a rental. A. Special conditions or circumstances The lot is oddly configured. The rear property line is %/" shaped and thus a house cannot meet the 25 foot setback zoning requirement for both front and rear. The setback requirement can be met for the front, but not the rear. B. Origin of special circumstances The Boynton Beach Faith Based CDC has done nothing to create the special conditions that require the variance. C. Special privileges The CDC is not receiving any particular benefit over other individuals or developers; the CDC only requests that it be permitted to construct a modest single family home (under 1,500 sq. ff.) consistent with the homes in this community on the east side of Seacrest Blvd. (a condominium is on the west side) and with the zoning designation. D. Commonly enjoyed property dghts In the immediate neighborhood, property to the east of Seacrest Blvd. is zoned R-1 (49 other properties), that to the west is zoned R-3 (over 500 residents). According to the R-1 lot owners must have specific setbacks. Because of the odd configuration of the lot, a house cannot be built with the required rear setback and still conform to the use intended by the City of Boynton Beach when it conveyed the property to the CDC. The lot in question is located on BloCk 13. Lots 10 and 11 of that same Block (13) were awarded variances for rear setbacks. E. Minimum variance/reasonable use Because of the shape of the property, some of the rear setback is already in (~compliance with~o,.,n'_l~g requirements, but some is not. A variance of approximately fe~F,J,.4') feet is sought for those parts of the house that are not in compliance with zoning requirements. The CDC seeks to build a modest house, .''" EXHIBIT"D" less than 1,500 square feet, on the lot. The lot will thus pass from being a vacant property to an owner-occupied residence. F. Harmony with general intent and purpose of the chapter The construction of the home by the CDC (the CDC already has client who wishes to locate on the site) will improve the neighborhood by ddding it of a vacant lot that conforms with the houses already in the neighborhood. By adding to the tax rolls, the home will serve to increase public welfare.

BACKGROUND Proposal: On .]uly 15, 2003, Compson Associates of Boynton, LLC, owner of the 28.36-acre parcel was approved for a large-scale mixed-use project known as Renaissance Commons (NWSP 03-007). The project consisted of a 10,662 square foot commercial building combined with eight (8) townhouse units, a 4,338 square foot stand-alone commerdal building, 250 mulU-family (apartment) units with their two (2) parking garages, and 242 fee-simple townhouse units. All components of the project were approved for Phase One except for the 4,338 square foot stand-alone commercial building. The stand-alone commercial building was noted as being a part of Phase Two. Accordingly, when the Renaissance Commons (NWSP 03-007) project was reviewed, no floor plans or elevaUons were included for the Phase Two building. As a condiUon of approval, staff required full site plan review for just the Phase Two building. Therefore, this submittal represents the informaUon that was required for the Phase Two building, conceptually approved in July of 2003. However, at this Ume, the applicant is proposing a 4,200 square foot commercial building instead of a 4,338 square foot building. This new building would be 138 square feet smaller than what was originally approved. However, the 138 square foot difference would be returned to the project during Phase Three (see accompanying staff report for Renaissance Commons Phase !!! - NWSP 03-017). Site Characteristic: The Phase Two portion of the subject site is a small component (0.53 acre) of the entire 28.36-acre rectangular-shaped parcel. The entire parcel, known as Renaissance Commons, is located on the east side of Congress Avenue and north of the C-16 Canal, extending eastward to the LWDD E-4 Canal. The applicant has · no intenUon of subdividing this 0.53-acre "leased lot" from the greater parcel. Therefore, no cross-parking or cross-access easements would be required and there would be no setback issues as well. All uses proposed in the Renaissance Commons project are permitted in the C-3 zoning district. The proposed commercial areas (of Phase One and Two) would be divided into two (2) separate buildings. As mentioned in the original Renaissance Commons staff report (NWSP 03-007), Phase One consisted of the vast majority of the commercial and residential development, while this phase (Phase Two), renr~;~n~: nnly fha r~td~uu nf fh~ ~'anrl-nlnnn cnmmarr-i:al h~ ,ilrlin~ nrnnr~``d in Hq,- northwest corner of the site. A lift staUon located off the property (on the Motorola site to the north - Phase Three) may require upgrades as a result of this project~ The required upgrade of the off-site lift staUon would be determined at the Ume of permitting. This boundary survey of the 28.36-acre parcel showed an existing metal fence running in a north-south direction along the western property line (near Congress Avenue). :It connects to the same fence used on the Motorola site (Phase Three). This boundary survey also showed two (2) existing asphalt paths within the intedor of the site and various easements that were dedicated on the 28.36-acre site. [f required, the abandonment and / or re-dedicaUon of easements Staff Report- Renaissance Commons Phase II (NWSP 03-016) Memorandum No PZ 03-263 Page 3 must be recorded prior to the issuance of the first certificate of occupancy. ANALYSZ$ Concurrency: Traffic: Generally, a project's anticipated traffic is generated by b~o factors, namely the proposed use and its intensity. Typically, the intensity is measured by the proposed building area (in square feet). When the original Renaissance Commons (NWSP 03-007) project was reviewed, a traffic statement was sent to Palm Beach County Traffic Division for their review and approval. At that time, the Traffic Division determined that the project was part of the previously approved Motorola Development of Regional Impact (DR/) and met the Traffic Performance Standards of Palm Beach County. Also, at the time of its review, the City's Engineering Division of Public Works required various off-site improvements as a result of this project. No new conditions are required as a result of the development of Phase Two. However, since .~uly of 2003, the developer has assembled the Motorola property to the north (see accompanying staff report for Phase Three - NWSP 03- 017). This property to the north is earmarked for the third phase of the Renaissance Commons project. A revised traffic impact analysis was sent to the Traffic Division for their review and approval. The new analysis, which includes all three phases of the Renaissance Commons project consists of 300 apartment units, 200 townhouse units (for a total of 500 dwelling units), and ,~3,820 square feet of retail space. As proposed, the retail area would be divided into five (5) separate buildings. No building permits will be issued until the Traffic Division determines that the entire project meets the Traffic Performance Standards ('FPS) of Palm Beach County. Drainage: Conceptual drainage informaUon was provided for the City's review. According to the original Renaissance Commons (NWSP 03-007) staff report, the project would discharge into the LWDD E-~t Canal, which would be limited by a control structure to 62.6 CSM at the 25-year storm event. AddiUonal on-site retention would be provided within a new lake constructed off the northeast comer of the property adjacent to the LWDD EH Canal. A berm would be placed around the perimeter of the site with a top elevaUon equal to or exceeding the calculated 25-year three (3) day storm event to prevent unpermitted discharge from the site. At this Ume, the Engineering Division is recommending that the review of specific drainage soluUons for Phase Two be deferred unUI Ume of permit review. All South Florida Water Management Disb'ict permits and other drainagP, rP. lated pP-rmi~ must be submitted at Ume of building permit (see Exhibit "C" - CondiUons of Approval). School: School concurrency is not required for non-residential uses. The original Renaissance Commons, which included Phase One and Two, was approved for 500 dwelling units and met the concurrency requirements of Palm Beach County. Staff Report - Renaissance Commons Phase II (NWSP 03-016) Memorandum No PZ 03-263 Page 4 Driveways: No direct points of ingress / egress are proposed on any roadways as a result of the development of this second phase of the Renaissance Commons project. On the entire 28.36-acre parcel, Phases One and Two were approved with a total of four points of ingress / egress. Two (2) of these four (4) points were approved as driveway openings directly onto Congress Avenue. The closest point of ingress / egress onto Congress Avenue from the 0.53-acre porUon of the Renaissance Commons project would occur from a main entry driveway that runs along the subject property's north boundary line. For edificaUon purposes, "north boundary line" is not a property line but rather is only used to describe limits of the Phase Two construction. [n any event, this point of ingress / egress (from Congress Avenue) is proposed to connect to an internal driveway that would run in an east- west direction along the northern limits of the subject Phase Two property. Access to the Phase Two portion of the project would only occur internally by driving through the parking lots of Phase One. There would be no direct ingress or egress involving Congress Avenue for this small "leased" portion. Parking Facility: The Renaissance Commons project proposes a mix of residenUal and commercial uses. The .Phase Two component only deals with a 4,200 square foot retail building. Commercial uses require one (1) parking space per 200 square feet of floor area. Therefore, 21 parking spaces would be required. The project would provide 22 parking spaces, one (1) space in excess of what is required. The detail of the parking spaces (as shown on sheet SP-2) indicates that parallel parking spaces would be dimensioned nine (9) feet - six (6) inches in width by 25 feet in length. All other parking spaces would be dimensioned nine (9) feet - six (6) inches in width by 18 feet - six (6) inches in length, except for handicap spaces, which would be 12 feet in width with five (5) feet of striping by 18 feet - six (6) inches in length. At the Ume of permitting, the applicant is required to submit a rectified overall site plan indicaUng the parking required / provided for Phase One and Phase Two (see Exhibit "C" - Conditions of Approval). Landscaping: According to the tabular data of the Renaissance Commons (NWSP 03-007) site plan approved in .luly of 2003, the total pervious area equaled 7.28 acres or 25.66% of the entire 28.36-acre site. No significant changes have been made to the landscape plan or pervious area as a result of this Phase Two development. The landscape material that was approved in Phase One would remain as-is in the landscape buffers around Phase Two. The landscape plan (sheet L2 of 3) proposes a variety of trees and shrubs around the Phase Two building. This plant material includes Ugustrum, Uve Oak, and Brazilian Beauty Leaf shade trees and Coconut, Alexander.. Pygmy Date, and Chdstrnas palm trees. The shrubs ./groundcover would include the following: RedUp Cocoplum, Yellow Lxora, Podocarpus, and Viburnum. A vast majority of these spedes were approved on the Phase One landscape plan. Prior to the issuance of a building permit, the landscape plan (sheet !.3 of 3) tabular data must indicate the percentage of naUve species to ensure that at least 50% of the plant material is naUve (see Exhibit"C"- CondiUons of Approval). However, it must be noted that this naUve plant material requirement is applied to the enUre 28.36-acre parcel and not just this small porUon of the project. The applicant, could in fact, choose to install over 50% non-naUve plant material on this Phase Two portion if a minimum of 50% naUve plant material is Staff Report - Renaissance Commons Phase II (NWSP 03-016) Memorandum No PZ 03-263 Page 5 maintained throughout the entire 28.36-acre site. Building and Site: The proposed building and site design would generally meet code requirements when staff comments are incorporated into the permit drawings. The Phase Two portion of the Renaissance Commons project was conceptually approved as a 4,338 square foot bank with a drive-through lane. However, the plans have been modified and the floor plan (sheet A-l) now shows it proposed as a one (1) story, 4,200 square foot building with three (3) retail bays. The building, including the arcades, would be 91 feet in length by 58 feet - six (6) inches in depth. The maximum building height in the C-3 zoning district is 45 feet. The elevation drawings (sheet A-2) show that the top of the roof would be 27 feet in height. The top of the decorative cupola would be 41 feet in height. Design: The entire Renaissance Commons project was designed with extensive high quality treatment of ground floor public space, discrete separation of private residential spaces (to the rear and upper levels of the project) and articulated building bases with store fronts, pilasters, cornices, and arcades proposed on the mixed-use building. Also, the roof material would be composed of Terracotta Cement S-tiles. The elevations (sheet A-2) show that this Phase Two building would be consistent and compatible with the Phase One commercial building. The consistency and compatibility in architectural enhancements indudes foam banding, similar building colors, same roof type, awnings, and similar exterior finish. To maintain consistency, these same features are also repeated on Phase Three (see accompanying staff report for Renaissance Commons Phase Three - NWSP 03- 017). All buildings in the commercial portion of all three (3) phases would be multi-colored and have a stucco exterior finish. The building colors would be light brown (ICI #553) and light yellow (ICI #667) with a grayish (ICI #769) trim. The canvas awnings would be hunter green and the buildings would be adorned with black metal railings. The outdoor freestanding lighting fixture detail (sheet SP-2) does not indicate the structure's dimensions. The Phase One detail, approved in July of 2003, illustrated that the structure would be approximately 15 feet tall and come with a variety of lighting fixtures (lamps). Staff recommends utilizing the same pole heights and lighting fixtures that were approved during Phase One (see Exhibit "C" - Conditions of Approval). Signage: The elevation of the commerdal building (sheet A-2) shows that each tenant would have the same sized wall signs, similar to the signs approved in Phase One. Once the building is built and all tenants of the commercial buildings are determined, the cumulative_ ar~.a of al! wa!! $i0na0e would have to comply with Chapter 2!, A~Jc!e IV, Section 2.C. of the Land Development Regulations (see Exhibit "C"- Conditions of Approval). The cumulative signage area would be based on the west building facade. A note on the elevations (sheet A-2) indicates that the signs would consist of reverse channel letters that are Helvetica medium gloss black font. No additional freestanding monument signs are allowed or proposed for Phase Two.

Proposal: The developer who controls the entire Motorola property intends to dissect the PZD into a master planned (multi-phased) mixed-use project. On ~]uly 15, 2003, Compson Associates of Boynton, LLC, owner of the 28.36-acre parcel located directly to the south of the subject property was approved for a large-scale mixed- use project known as Renaissance Commons (NWSP 03-007). Build-out of the project would be accomplished in different phases. The first phase consisted of the approval of a 10,662 square foot commercial building combined with eight (8) townhouse units, 250 multi-family (apartment) units with their two (2) parking garages, and 242 fee-simple townhouse units. Phase Two consists of a 4,200 square foot commercial building. This proposal represents the third phase. Phase Three consists of three (3) commercial buildings (for a total of 28,962 square feet) with eight (8) apartment units. The eight (8) units are truly "mixed-use" in design because they are all proposed within the confines one commercial building rather than as separate stand-alone buildings. This would mimic the mixed-use theme approved in Phase One. This third phase was not a component of the site plan approved in .July of 2003. Each subsequent phase (after Phase One and Two) of the Renaissance Commons project will require new site plan approval. The plans also show that a park (recreational open space) is proposed at the northern portion of the subject property. The preliminary engineering drawings (sheet C2 of C4) illustrate that this park improvement could only be accomplished by filling in one of the existing lakes. Site Characteristic: According to the survey, the entire Motorola property is comprised of two (2) halves. The property is located on the east side of Congress Avenue, south of Gateway Boulevard, north of the C-16 Canal, and extends eastward to the LWDD E-4 Canal. The 28.36-acre southern half was approved for a mix of residential and commercial uses in two phases, namely Phase One and Phase Two. The third phase of the Renaissance Commons project is the development of a 5.56-acre "leased" area, located along Congress Avenue on the northern 57.186-acre parcel. At this time, no changes are proposed to the exislJng Motorola building or the site other than the 5.56-acre Phase Three area. The boundary survey showed two (2) existing asphalt paths within the interior of the site and various easements that were dedicated on the 57.186-acre site. If required, the abandonment and / or rededication of easements (in only the Phase Three portion) must be recorded prior to the issuance of the first certificate of occupancy (see Exhibit "C"- Conditions of Approval). The applicant has no intention of subdividing this 5.56-acre "leased lot" from the greater parcel. Therefore, no cross-parking or cross-access easements would be Staff Report - Renaissance Commons Phase III (NWSP 03-O17) Memorandum No PZ 03-272 Page 3 required and there would be no internal setback issues as well. All uses (commercial / residential) proposed in the Renaissance Commons Phase Three project are permitted in the C-3 zoning district. ANALYSTS Concurrency: Traffic: When the original Renaissance Commons (NWSP 03-007) project was reviewed, a traffic statement was sent to Palm Beach County Traffic Division for their review and approval. At that time, the Traffic Division determined that the project was part of the previously approved Motorola Development of Regional Impact (DR~[) and met the Traffic Performance Standards of Palm Beach County. Also, at the time of its review, the City's Engineering Division of Public Works required various off- site improvements as a result of this project. No new conditions are required as a result of the development of Phase Three. However, Since ,July of 2_003, the developer assembled the subject property to the north of Phases One and Two. A revised traffic impact analysis was sent to the Traffic Division for their review and approval. The new analysis, which includes all three phases of the Renaissance Commons project, consists of 300 apartment units, 200 townhouse units (for a total of 500 dwelling units), and 43,$20 square feet of retail space. As proposed, the retail area would be divided into five (5) separate buildings. No building permits will be issued until the Traffic Division determines that the entire project meets the Traffic Performance Standards ('I'PS) of Palm Beach County (see Exhibit "C" - Conditions of Approval). Drainage: Conceptual drainage information was provided for the Oty's review. According to the original Renaissance Commons (NWSP 03-007) staff report, the project would discharge into the LWDD E-~ Canal, which would be limited by a control structure to 62.6 CSM at the 25-year storm event. Additional on-site retention would be provided within a new lake constructed off the northeast comer of the property adjacent to the LWDD E-4 Canal. A berm would be placed around the perimeter of the site with a top elevation equal to or exceeding the calculated 25-year three (3) day storm event to prevent unpermitted discharge from the site. At this time, the Engineering Division is recommending that the review of specific drainage solutions for Phase Three 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: The School District of Palm Beach County approved the Renaissance Commons project for 500 dwelling units. Any future additional units (above and beyond what was already approved) would require the School District's review and approval. District approval would be required prior to the issuance of any building permits (see Exhibit "C"- Conditions of Approval). Driveways: The site plan (sheet SP-1) shows that the Phase Three development of Renaissance Commons project proposes one (1) additional point of ingress / egress along Staff Report- Renaissance Commons Phase III (NWSP 03-017) Memorandum No PZ 03-272 Page 4 Congress Avenue. The opening of the ingress lane along Congress Avenue would be 18 feet in width while the opening of the egress lane would be 12 feet in width. A striped "island" 10 feet in width would separate the two (2) lanes. No other driveway openings are proposed onto a major roadway as a result of this third phase of development. Excluding the aforementioned Phase Three ddveway opening proposed directly on Congress Avenue, the closest access point to Phase Three would occur from the project's main entry ddveway that is proposed (in Phase One) to run along the subject property's south boundary line. For edification purposes, "south boundary line" of Phase Three is not an actual property line but rather it is used only to describe the limits of the Phase Three construction. In any event, this main entry driveway (from Congress Avenue other than one described in the paragraph above) would connect to an internal ddveway proposed to run in an east-west direction along the southern limits of the Phase Three property (and likewise the northern limits of the Phase One and Two property). Also, direct ingress / egress to the Phase Three portion of the project would occur internally by driving through the parking lots proposed directly west of the existing Motorola building. Parking Facility: The Renaissance Commons project proposes a mix of residential and commercial uses. Commercial uses require one (1) parking space per 200 square feet of floor area. Therefore, based on the above referenced methodology, 145 parking spaces would be required for the commercial use. Each one-bedroom apartment unit requires one and one-half (1.5) parking spaces. Two and three bedroom apartment units require two (2) parking spaces each. Based on the above referenced methodology, 13 parking spaces would be required for the residential use. In conclusion, the Phase Three portion of the Renaissance Commons project would require a total of 158 parking spaces (see Exhibit "C" - Conditions of Approval). The site plan (sheet SP-2) shows that 202 parking spaces or an excess of 44 spaces would be provided. Eight (8) parking spaces would be provided via one-car parldng garages. Five (5) of the nine (9) parallel parking spaces would be allocated to the apartment use since the parking in their garages alone would not meet minimum code requirements. The detail of the parking spaces (as shown on sheet SP-2) indicates that parallel parking spaces would be dimensioned nine (9) feet- six (6) inches in width by 25 feet in length. All other parking spaces would be dimensioned nine (9) feet - six (6) inches in width by 18 feet - six (6) inches in length, except for handicap spaces, which would be 12 feet in width with five (5) feet of striping by 18 feet - six (6) inches in length. As approved, the Renaissance Commons project (Phase One, Two, and Three) proposes a total of 500 dwelling units (a mixture of one, two, and three bedrooms). Under the limitations of the original approval, the applicant may transfer the number of residential units between each phase but collectively; Phase One, Two, and Three may not have more than a total of 500 dwelling units. At the time of permitting, the applicant is required to submit a rectified overall site plan indicating the number of required / provided parking for each phase (see Exhibit "C" - Conditions of Approval). Staff Report - Renaissance Commons Phase III (NWSP 03-017) Memorandum No PZ 03-272 Page 5 Landscaping: The impervious / pervious statistics (as indicated on the tabular data / cover sheet) are based on the area on the 5.56-acres "leased" portion of the 57.186-acres northern parcel. According to the summary, over 1.8-acres or nearly 33% of the leased area would be of a pervious surface. The Landscape Data (on sheet L1 of 5) indicates that 50.88% of the shade trees and 60% of the palm trees would be native. Also, over 50% of the groundcover / shrubs would be native. The Landscape Quantities (shown on sheet L5 of 5) indicates that the plan would provide a total of 158 shade trees, 127 palm trees, and 1,372 shrubs / accents (see Exhibit"C"- Conditions of Approval). The landscape material that was approved in Phase One and Two would remain as- is in their respective landscape buffers. Phase One perimeter landscaping along Congress Avenue was approved with Dwarf Podocarpus, Ilex Burfordi, Imperial Blue Plumbago, Dwarf Cocoplum, Dwarf Yaupon Holly, Live Oak trees, Royal Palm trees, and .lapanese Fern trees. The interior landscape islands in the parking lot of the commercial areas for Phase One and Two were approved with Dwarf Cocoplum hedges and either Coconut palm trees, Brazilian Beauty Leaf, or Mahogany shade trees. Similarly, the west landscape buffer (along Congress Avenue) for Phase Three (on sheets 1_5 of 5) would include the same or compatible plant material (Ilex Burfordi, Dwarf Podocarpus, Imperial Blue Plumbago, Redtip Cocoplum, Laurel Oak, and Royal Palms trees. The interior landscaped islands in the parking lot of the commercial buildings would contain Brazilian Beautyleaf trees. Although not labeled on the landscape plan (sheet L3 of 5), the Phase Three entry drive proposed from Congress Avenue would have three (3) Medjool Date Palm trees and six (6) Coconunt palm trees (see Exhibit "C" - Conditions of Approval). The landscape material in the park would include 32 Royal Palm trees, 10 Live Oak trees, with Dwarf Crown of Thorns, and Awabuki Vibumum. Building and Site: The proposed building and site design would generally meet code requirements when staff comments are incorporated into the permit drawings. The proposed southernmost building within Phase Three is labeled as "Building 9" (shown on sheet A-l). The plan indicates that this structure would be 83 feet in length and over 49 feet in depth. The drawing also shows that it would have an eight (8) foot wide arcade along the west and north building facades. This 4,200 square foot building would consist of three (3) tenant bays. However, the size of each bay would change depending on the needs of the individual tenants. The maximum building height in the C-3 zoning district is 45 feet. Similar to Phase One, the buildings proposed in Phase Three would have varying heights but none would exceed the 45-foot height limitation. The elevation drawings of"Building 9" (sheet A-2) show that the building is designed as a one (1)-story structure. The elevations also show that the top of the roof would be 27 feet in height and the top of the decorative cupola would be 41 feet in height. The center building (Building 10) is proposed as a traditional"mixed-use" building. Eight (8) residential units are proposed on the second floor above the 10,662 square feet of commercial bays. The floor plan (sheet A-3) shows that the building would be 213 feet- 10 inches in length by ~,5 feet- four (4) inches in depth. This building would have an eight (8) foot wide arcade in front (west) and a 10-foot Staff Report- Renaissance Commons Phase III (NWSP 03-017) Memorandum No PZ 03-272 Page 6 wide arcade along the north side. However, the rear (east) elevation on the mixed-use building would have to be updated to correctly correspond with its floor plan with regards to the number of residential garages. The floor plan' and the elevation do not match. This revision could occur during the permitting process (see Exhibit"C"- Conditions of Approval). The elevation drawings of"Building 10" (sheet A-5) show that the building is designed as a two (2)-story structure. The elevations also show that the top of the roof would be no taller than 45 feet in height. The northern building (Building 11) would resemble the mixed-use building in terms of its shape but would only be one (1)-story tall. The floor plan (sheet A-6) shows that the building would be 286 feet- seven (7) inches in length by 63 feet- eight (8) inches in depth. Similar to the other buildings, it would have an arcade running along its north, west, and east building facades. The elevation drawings of "Building 11" (sheet A-7) show that the tope of the roof would be 28 feet in height and that the top of the decorative cupola would be 41 feet in height. Design: The entire Renaissance Commons project was designed with extensive high quality treatment of ground floor public space, discrete separation of private residential spaces .(to the rear and upper levels of the project) and articulated building bases with store fronts, pilasters, cornices, and arcades proposed on the mixed-use building. Also, the roof material would be composed of Terracotta Cement S-tiles. The elevations (sheets A-2, A-5, and A-7 show that these Phase Three buildings would be consistent and compatible with both the Phase One and Two commercial ! mixed-use buildings. The consistency and compatibility in architectural enhancements includes foam banding, similar building colors, same roof type, awnings, and similar exterior finish. To maintain consistency, these same features are also repeated on Phase Three (see accompanying staff report for Renaissance Commons Phase Two - NWSP 03-016). All buildings in the commercial portion of each phase would be multi-colored and have a stucco exterior finish. The building colors would be light brown ([Ct #553) and light yellow (ICI #667) with a grayish ([C! #769) trim. The canvas awnings would be hunter green and the buildings would be adorned with black metal railings. The outdoor freestanding lighting fixture detail (sheet SP-2) does not indicate the structure's dimensions. The Phase One detail, approved in 3uly of 2003, illustrated that the structure would be approximately 15 feet tall and come with a variety of lighting fixtures (lamps). Staff recommends utilizing the same pole heights and lighting fixtures that were approved during Phase One (see Exhibit"C" - Conditions of Approval). Signage.' The elevations (sheets A-2, A-5, and A-7) show that each tenant would have similar size wall signs as those signs approved in Phase One. Once the building is built and commerdal tenants are determined, the cumulative area of all wall signage would have to comply with Chapter 21, Article IV, Section 2.C. of the Land Development Regulations (see Exhibit "C" - Conditions of Approval). The cumulative signage area would be based on the west building fa(;;ade. A note on the elevations (sheets A-2, A-5, and A-7) indicates that the signs would consist of reverse channel letters in a Helvetica medium gloss black font. Staff Report - Renaissance Commons Phase III (NWSP 03-017) Memorandum No PZ 03-272 Page 7 The original Renaissance Commons project (Phase One) was approved for four (~t) monument-style residential subdivision entrance signs. They were approved pursuant to Chapter 21, Article IV, Section 1.D of the Land Development Regulations. Since the entire Renaissance Commons project is considered one (1) parcel, a "commercial" freestanding monument style sign would be permitted in addition to the residential subdivision signs. Pursuant to Chapter 21, Article IV, Section 3.B. of the Land Development Regulations, a shopping center sign would be permitted as long as the sign face area would not exceed 160 square feet in area. The site plan (sheet SP-3) and sign detail (sheet A-8) indicate that this proposed structure would be located on an entry wall, to be located on the south side of the north entrance proposed on Congress Avenue. Its proposed style would resemble the same style of the previously approved subdivision entrance signs in Phase One. In addition, the Detail (on sheet A-8) shows that a provision would be made for the project's major commercial tenants. Staff endorses this sign style. However, the sign face itself may not exceed 160 square feet in area. This would include the proposed lettering, "The Shops at Renaissance Commons" (see Exhibit "C" - Conditions of Approval). RECOMMENDATION: The Technical Review Committee (TRC) has reviewed this request for new site plan approval. Staff recommends approval, contingent upon successfully 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.

The traffic impact analysis for the entire Renaissance Commons project X consists of 300 apartment units, 200 townhouse units (for a total of 500 dwelling units), and 43,820 square feet of retail space. As proposed, the retail area would be divided into five (5) separate buildings. No building permits can be issued until the entire project meets the Traffic Performance Standards (TPS) of Palm Beach County. At the time of permitting, submit a rectified overall site plan, indicating all the above referenced uses and their respective square footages. The number of units and retail buildings areas proposed on the rectified overall plan must match the approved traffic impact analysis. 33. The School District of Palm Beach County approved the Renaissance X Commons project for 500 dwelling units. Any additional units would require the School District's review and approval. District approval would be required prior to the issuance of any building permits. 34. The configuration of the proposed Phase III parcel does not match the X commercial parcel that was approved on the master plan. The proposed configuration would cause the existing Motorola building to be non- conforming due to PID zoning setbacks. Either reconfigure the proposed Phase III parcel so that it is consistent with what was already approved by the City Commission or formally request a master plan modification to the Motorola master plan. Either way, staff would not support a change that would cause non-conformity. 35. Based on the proposed uses and respective building areas, the Phase III X Renaissance Commons requires 158 parking spaces. Revise site plan tabular data (sheet SP-2) to indicate the number of required spaces. 36. On the site plan, provide a label indicating the number of parking spaces for X each row, including handicap spaces. 37. Regarding the apartment units, the number of garage doors (9) shown on the elevations (sheet A-5) does not match the number of doors (8) shown on the X floor plan (sheet A-3).

The entry wall sign (sheet A-8) shows that a provision would be made for the X project's major commercial tenants. Staff endorses this style of signs that would be construed as "shopping center" signs as identified by the Land Development Regulations. However, the sign face itself may not exceed 160 square feet in area. This sign face would include the proposed lettering, "The Shops at Renaissance Commons". 41. On the landscape plan, ensure that the plant quantities match between the X tabular data and the graphic illustration. Prior to the issuance of a building permit, ensure that all proposed and existing plant material is indicated and accounted for on the landscape plans. 42. All trees, if proposed as trees, must be at least 12 feet in height and three (3) X caliper inches at the time of their installation (Chapter 7.5, Article II, Section 5.C.2.). This would apply to the Jatropha, Ligustrum, Bismark, Bouganvillea, Japanese Fern, and Pygmy Date palms. 43.

Acreage: 3.9 acres Adjacent Uses: North: Right-of-way for the Lake Worth Drainage District (LWDD) L-26 Canal, then farther north is developed single family homes (Lakes of Tara) with a Low Density ResidenUal (LDR) land use designaUon, and zoned Planned Unit Development (PUD); South: Right-of-way for Woolbdght Road, then farther south is developed single family attached homes (Quail Run Villas) with a Low Density ResidenUal (LDR) land use designation, and zoned Planned Unit Development (PUD); Staff Report- Fire Station #2 (NWSP 03-015) Memorandum No PZ 03-275 Page 2 East: City of Boynton Beach water storage facility with a Public and Private Governmental/Institutional (PPG]~) land use designation, and zoned Public Use (PU), then farther east is property developed with professional offices with a Local Retail Commercial (LRC) land use designation, and zoned Community Commercial (C3); West: Right-of-way of Woolbright Road. Project size: The project consists of a 29,234 square foot building housing fire personnel and apparatus as well as fire administration. Site Characteristic: The subject parcel is comprised of a long, pie or wedge-shaped piece of land approximately 1,290 feet long and approximately 188 feet wide at its widest dimension and 30 feet wide at the narrowest dimension. The parcel is vacant and situated between the northern edge of the Woolbright Road right-of-way and the southern edge of the Lake Worth Drainage District L-26 Canal. The survey shows that the highest elevation is 14.4 feet above sea level, located near the northeast comer of the site. BACKGROUND Proposal: The City proposes to construct a two story, 29,234 square foot fire rescue station to better serve the southwest section of the City. The project consists of 23,339 square feet of operations, office and living space (including approximately 1,000 square feet of multi-purpose room space for city and community activities) and nearly 6,000 square feet of apparatus bays to house the trucks and equipment. ANALYSZ$ Concurrency: Traffic: A traffic impact statement for this project will be required prior to issuance of a building permit. No permit will be issued prior to determination that the project meets the Traffic Performance Standards of Palm Beach County. Drainage: Conceptual drainage information was provided for the City's review. The Engineering Division has found the conceptual information for the subject property to be adequate and is recommending that the review of specific drainage solutions be deferred until time of permit review (see Exhibit "C" - Conditions of Approval). School: This project is exempt from the school concurrency requirements of Palm Beach County. Driveways: The subject property fronts on Woolbdght Road. Proposed on-site circulation consists of a driveway entrance/exit for the general public and employees at the west end of the property and a separate entrance/exit for fire rescue vehides. Staff Report- Fire Station ~2 (NWSP 03-015) Memorandum No PZ 03-275 Page 3 Parking Facility: Parking required for this type of facility is based on one (1) parking space per bunkroom (13) and one (1) parking space per 300 square feet of office space (9,000), for a total of 43 parking spaces. The plan as designed accommodates 52 parking spaces, including 3 handicap spaces, an excess of nine (9) spaces. Landscaping: The proposed pervious or "green" area of the lot would be 97,574 square feet or 56.28% of the total site. The landscape plan tabular data (Sheet 1_2.1) indicates that 61 trees, 130 palms and 7,231 shrubs are being provided. Typical trees being utilized in the planting scheme include Gumbo Limbo, Live Oak, Orange Geiger and Yellow Tabebuia, with Sabal and Solitaire palms. Shrub materials selected for the site include :Indian Hawthorne, [,,(ora, Viburnum and Macho Fern. A decorative wall, painted to match the building is proposed along the north property line with Viburnum hedge along the outside (north side). Building and Site: Building and site regulations will be fully met when staff comments are incorporated into the permit drawings. The proposed two-story fire rescue building would have varying roof heights, with the highest of the peaked roofs at 40 feet in height. The maximum allowed height in the PU zoning district is 45 feet. The floor plan (Sheets A2.1 & A2.2) shows the first floor as lobby, living quarters and apparatus bays, with the second floor housing the administrative offices and multi-purpose room. Sheets A3.1 & A3.2 provide an illustration of the building facades, with CBS walls, stucco finish and score lines, decorative trims and mouldings, barrel roof tiles and bahama shutters, providing a mediterranean revival design theme to the structure. Design: The elevation drawings (Sheets A3.1 & A3.2) show that the building would be designed as a very attractive fire station with the fa(;ade improvements discussed above. The body of the building would be stucco and painted a cream color (BM Paints - "Wellesley Buff" 107). The accent body color is proposed to be painted a slightly darker cream color (BM Paints -"Canyon Lands" 109). The trim / banding areas are all proposed to be painted a tan color (BM Paints - "Wood Ash" 1065). The fascia is proposed to be painted white (BM Paints - "Simply White" OCl17). The barrel tile roof is a blend of muted colors chosen to match the paint scheme (Pioneer- Harbor Blend). The apparatus bay doors are to be painted to match the color of the building as part of the mitigation associated with the Community Design Plan Appeal application (CDPA 03-002) presented as part of this project. Signage: The signage, according to Sheet 1_2.1, will be a monument sign approximately five (5) feet tall by 8.3 feet in width, arched to follow the design of the building. The sign will contain the same type of building materials and paint colors and feature the City logo as well as the numerical address. The actual lettering will be 4" flat aluminum letters painted "Petina Green". The lettering on the building is proposed to follow the same style and type lettering as the monument sign.

Railroad right-of-way, and farther east is Interstate 95 right-of-way; West: High Ridge Road right-of-way, and farther west are Lots 56 & 57 of Quantum Park, vacant, and zoned PID. BACKGROUND Ms Joni Brinkman of Winston Lee & Associates and agent for Premier is requesting a six (6) month time extension for the site plan approval (NWSP 02-016) originally granted on November 6, 2002. Additionally, a Minor Site Plan Modification (MMSP 03-058) was granted on August 5, 2003, to allow for phasing of the project and a new driveway connection to High Ridge Road. The property is currently a vacant parcel approximately 13.75 acres in size. The intent of the project, based upon the above-noted Minor Modification, is to construct two (2) 91,367 square foot buildings for office/industrial use. The applicant has however retained the right to construct the facility as one (1) 196,554 square foot building for the same purpose. If this request for extension were approved, the expiration date of this site plan, including concurrency certification would be extended to May 6, 2004. Page 2 Quantum Park Lots 73A-76 - SPTE Staff Report Memorandum No. PZ 03-256 ANALYSIS On November 6, 2002, the City Commission granted site plan approval for the above-referenced project. This site plan approval was subject to 24 conditions of approval. All project conditions of approval pertaining to the site plan would still apply. According to Chapter 4, Section 5 of the Land Development Regulations, "the applicant shall have one (1) year to secure a building permit from the Development Department". It states further that the City Commission may extend the approval for one (1) year provided that the applicant has filed a request for a time extension prior to the expiration of the original approval. In this case, the applicant has met the requirement. The Planning & Zoning Division received the application for 'a site plan time extension on October 20, 2003, prior to the expiration date. As mentioned earlier, based upon market conditions, the applicant requested a Minor Site Plan Modification to allow the project to be phased by creating two (2) separate free-standing buildings within the footprint of the previously approved single structure. As a result of the modification, engineering plans had to be altered to conform to the new building and site design. The plans were completed and submitted to the Building Division for 'permitting. The Building Division requested revisions be made to the plans, which have since been accomplished and are again under review for permitting. The applicant was uncertain if a permit would be issued by the one (1) year deadline (November 6, 2003) and decided it was in their best interest to make this application for a time extension. The applicant is only requesting a six (6) month time extension based on their anticipation that the permit will be issued shortly. These reasons appear to provide justification and a need for ~. formal request for site plan extension. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends approval of this request for a six (6) month time extension of the site plan approval (NWSP 02-O16). This recommendation is based on the "good faith" effort shown to build the project, the fact that traffic concun'ency has been maintained, and no changes have been made to the Land Development Regulations that would impact this project since it was approved in 2002. Approval of this request for site plan extension would extend the project's expiration date to May 6, 2004. All conditions of approval included in the initial development order must still be satisfactorily addressed during the building permit process. No new conditions of approval are recommended in conjunction with this site plan extension at this time; however, any conditions of approval recommended by the Board or required by the City Commission will be placed in Exhibit "C" - Conditions of Approval.

Rumpf~''~-'''~ Planning and Zoning Director FROM: Ed Breese, Principal Planner ~ DATE: November 12, 2003 SUBJECT: Fire Station #2 - CDPA 03-002 Appeal of Chapter 9 - Community Design Plan (Overhead Doors) NATURE OF REQUEST David Stump and David Lui, representing the City of Boynton Beach Engineering and Fire Departments, are requesting approval of a Community Design Plan Appeal to allow overhead bay doors facing Woolbright Road (see Exhibit"B" - Proposed Elevafions)~ This appeal is being submitted in conjunction with a site plan application (NWSP 03-015). BACKGROUND The City proposes to construct a two-story, 29,234 square-foot fire rescue station/fire administration office building on a 3.98-acre parcel on the north side of Woolbright Road, approximately 650 feet west of Congress Avenue (see Exhibit "A"). According to Chapter 9 - Community Design Plan of the City's Land Development Regulations, Woolbright Road is listed as a roadway where building elevations shall not display overhead bay doors. Due to their high degree of visibility, these major roadways within the City are subject to higher standards related to building appearance. ANALYSIS This subject property is located west of Congress Avenue on Woolbright Road. The restriction of not allowing the bay doors to face Woolbright Road is predicated on the concept that the roadway is very visible and overhead bay doors are unsightiy. Woolbright Road, as well as the other roadways listed in Chapter 9, Section 1 l.J. of the Land Development Regulations, are considered entrances into the City. Buildings located on these roadways should be held to a higher level of architectural standards. The Design Appeal process is appropriate in this instance because the unique nature of the fire rescue operation and the rapid response necessity. Since in many instances, every second counts, having immediate access to the main thoroughfare (Woolbright Road) can substantially improve the response times, as opposed to driving through a long parking lot before entering the highway. Additionally, due to the long, narrow sliver of property on which this station is proposed, the overhead doors would be in full view of eastbound traffic on Woolbright Road for a much more substantial period than the straight on view being proposed. Ironically, even rotating the building so that the bay doors would be in an east/west alignment Page 2 Memorandum No. PZ03-276 Fire Station #2 CDPA 03-002 would still result in the bay doom facing Woolbright Road, since the curvature of the read as it moves west past the fire station site would act as a secondary frontage on the west (thus still requiring this design appeal). Accordingly, the Architects have proposed a very beautiful building with a great deal of design character (see Sheet A3.1). The mediterranean architecture more closely resembles many of the larger homes being built in our newer subdivisions than apparatus bays of a fire station. They have also proposed painting the overhead doom to match the color of the building, in order that they blend with the building as much as possible, since standard operating procedure is for the bay doom to be closed, thus obscuring any storage, daily operations, or the things people generally find objectionable about open garage bays. Lastly the Architects have designed a lush, colorful landscape theme along Woolbright Road and the front of the fire rescue station to soften any impact from the orientation of the bay doom (see Sheet L1.2). RECOMMENDATION Based on the analysis contained herein, staff recommends approval of this request to locate the overhead bay doom facing Woolbright Avenue. No conditions of approval are recommended; however, any conditions of approval recommended by the Board or City Commission will be placed in Exhibit uC" - Conditions of Approval.

Buchanan OWNER: James E. Buchanan LOCATION: 807 Ocean Inlet Drive DESCRIPTION: Request for relief from the City of Boynton Beach Land Development Regulations, Chapter 2, Zoning, Section 5.C.2.A, requiring a twenty-five (25) foot rear yard setback to allow aseven (7) foot variance, resulting in a 18 foot rear yard setback within the R-l-AA single family-zoning district.

Variance Request: Request for relief from the City of Boynton Beach Land Development Regulations, Chapter 2, Zoning, Section 5.C.2.a, requiring a twenty-five (25) foot rear yard setback to allow a seven (7) foot variance, resulting in a 18 foot rear yard setback within the R-l-AA single family zoning district. BACKGROUND The subject property and surrounding neighborhood is currently zoned R-l-AA, single family residential (see Exhibit ~A" - Location map). The lot was developed in 1960, and it conforms with the current R-l-AA zoning distdct building and site regulations. The subject property is surrounded by developed lots some of which are undergoing renovation as well. The property is located at the north side of Ocean Inlet Drive and has a depth of 98 feet. For comparison, those properties located at the south side of Ocean Inlet Drive have a depth of 112 feet. Some of the parcels on the north side, including the subject property, have rear yards with open views to the Intracoastal Waterway. Staff surveyed the area and it was observed that all properties along both sides of Ocean Inlet Drive appear to comply with the minimum front setback requirement of 25 feet, as estimated by the straight alignment of the front building lines with few exceptions. A nine (9) foot vadance was granted on October 10, 2000 to allow a 16- foot rear setback for Lot #13 to the east. The subject variance is requested in conjunction with a plan to expand the existing single-family home with a second story including an additional one-car garage. It should be noted that previous variances for a front yard setback reduction and the maximum lot coverage were granted for the subject property in February 2003 (ZNCV 02-017). The requested setback variance is only for a rear balcony overhanging on the second floor of the proposed addition to the house. This planned expansion is consistent with new construction and redevelopment projects observed in the subject neighborhood. ANALYSIS The code states that the zoning code variance cannot be approved unless the board finds the following: Page 2 Buchanan File No. ZNCV 03-019 a. That special conditions and circumstances exist which are peculiar to the land, structure, or building involved and which are not applicable to other lands, structures or buildings in the same zoning districL b. That the special conditions and circumstances do not result from the actions of the applicant. c. That granting the variance requested will not confer on the applicant any special privilege that is denied by this ordinance to other lands, buildings, or structures in the same zoning district. d. That literal interpretation of the provisions of this ordinance would deprive the applicant of rights commonly enjoyed by other properties in the same zoning district under the terms of the ordinance and would work unnecessary and undue hardship on the applicant. e. That the variance granted is the minimum variance that will make possible the reasonable use of the land, building, or structure. f. That the granting of the variance will be in harmony with the general intent and purpose of this chapter [ordinance] and that such variance will not be injurious to the area involved or otherwise detrimental to the public welfare. (Exhibit "D" contains the applicant's response to the above criteria.) The subject parcel totals 7,350 square feet, which is less than the minimum 7,500 square feet required for a lot platted before 1975 (the lot was platted in 1952). The lot is considered a legal non-conforming parcel according to the Land Development Regulations Chapter 2, Section 11.1. C. 3. This section of the code allows the development of a lot within the R-l-AA zoning district as long as: the parcel contains one whole platted lot, the lot cannot be assembled to increase the size to a conforming size, and the lot is not less than 6,750 square feet (see Exhibit "B" - Survey). The Coquina Cove Subdivision was platted in 1952 with typical lot dimensions of 75 feet (wide) by 98 feet (deep) for the lots located north of Ocean Inlet Drive. In contrast, other subdivisions throughout the city that are similarly zoned have typical lot dimensions of 80 feet (wide) and 100 feet to 120 feet (deep). The shallow depths of typical lots within this subdivision, when combined with the required minimum rear and front setbacks (totaling 50 feet), may limit expansion design flexibility. Given that the subject property has been improved with a single-family home, and occupied since 1955, and since most other lots along the north side of Ocean Inlet Drive have identical dimensions to the subject lot, criteria items "a", "d" and 'e" are not met. Furthermore, since the propert',y is,..u,,,~,,,,y"' ,,,,~,,,:v~u,: .................. ,=,,u u,-,~ u,~ r, ecessity u,-' the vada,~;e ha~ beef', caused by [he proposed home expansion, condition "b" above is also not satisfied. Regarding the intent of the zoning regulations, and impacts on adjacent properties, staff acknowledges that if the rear setback is reduced, the standard building envelope could be expanded closer to the north property line, thereby theoretically impacting on adjacent properties through reduced light, air flow, and views. The applicant proposes to extend the balcony portion of the second story addition to 18 feet from the rear (north) property line (see Exhibit "C" - Variance requested), which is an additional 4 feet beyond the applicant's existing Page 3 Buchanan File No. ZNCV 03-019 screen room and only 2 feet beyond the overhang/eave of the screen room. It should be noted that the existing rear setback (20 feet) of the subject property is non-conforming. CONCLUSIONS/RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the subject request for rear variance be denied, due to the lack of traditional hardship, and due to the circumstance being created by simple home improvements on a standard platted lot. No conditions of approval are recommended; however, any conditions of approval added by the Planning and Development Board or City Commission will be placed in Exhibit "E". Staff should indicate that past variance requests have been reviewed by the city using more than the traditional criteria, or interpretations of this cdteda placing greater emphasis on the magnitude of the proposed improvement, economic potential and characteristics of surrounding properties. For this reason, and to indicate the consequence of denial, staff offers the following information for consideration: 1. The redevelopment potential of this neighborhood, as evidenced by newly constructed and redeveloped homes in the area, tends to encourage similar improvements regardless of lot constraints; 2. Although the proposed variance would allow relatively minimal improvements, it would allow the value of the improvements to more closely match the value of the land as well as the value of other improvements in the neighborhood; 3. The proposed variance would allow physical improvements that are needed to accomplish certain architectural design goals related to the second-story addition, without negatively impacting adjacent or nearby properties (the rear setback variance would allow the home to simply encroach toward the Intracoastal Waterway, and that additional 2 foot encroachment is an open-air balcony); 4. No objection from adjacent property owners has been received by staff; and 5. As noted earlier, the lot to the east was granted a nine (9)- foot variance for the rear setback to allow a 16 foot rear yard in October of 2000; 6. Rear setbacks regulations are being evaluated as part of the Land Development Regulations rewrite, and preliminarily, the subject circumstance would be one that staff desires to have accommodated by future amendments.

Special conditions and c/rcum~tances exist/ng that are peculiar to this property are the size of the lot and its location on the Intracoastal Waterway (ICW). This lot is. on the north side of Ocean Inlet Drive and is 75 feet wide but only 98 · feet deep. The lots on the south side Of Ocean Inlet Drive are also 75 feet wide but are 112 feet deep. If this lot were as deep as those on the south side, a variance would not be needed for the contemplated expansion of thi.~ home. Further, this property is located directly on the ICW and has a wide water view to the B°ynton Inlet with no houses to obstruct that view. The properties on the south side are located on a canal which is not as desirable but can accommodate a larger house because of the greater depth of the lot. The original developer erred in not sizing the lots suchthat the more desirable lots on the ICW could accommodate as large or larger homes as those on the canal. B. The special conditions and.circumstances discussed above are not the result of the actions of the applicants since · the lot size is the same as it was originally platted · the home was built by others in 1959, and · the applicants did not purchase the home until 1987. C. Granting the variance will not confer a special privilege on the applicants because it will allow the creation of a structure consistent with new and remodeled homes in the neighborhood, some of which have obtained variances or were originally constructed with less of a setback. In fact, the adjacent property to the east was constructed within the past year with a rear variance of 9 feet and a from variance of 5 feet for a two story structure. The variance requested here is for a rear variance that will only affect overhangs and not affect the footprint of the residence. · -' ,,.- EXHiBiT- Curremly the edge of the screened porch is 22feet and the two-foot overhang of the roof20 feet l~om the rear property line, well within the 15 feet in the ori~nal deed restriction but now non-complying. The variance being requested is to allow for an additional two feet into .the current setback for overhangs. D. Literal interpretation would deprive the applicants of rights commonly ,enjoyed by other properties in the neighborhood and would cause undue hardship for the following reason. The primary impetus for the remodeling project is to prepare to accommodate an aging mother. Given the design of the house and the lot size, the only way to accomplish this is to add a second story. For reasons of aesthetics, function, and value, the current screened porch will have a second story porch above it which will serve as the roof for the screened porch. In Order to better protect the screened porch from the severe weather from the north, it is necessary to extend this second story porch an additional two feet beyond the current roof overhang thus providing a four-foot overhang to shelter the screened porch. This two-foot projection beyond the current roof overhang results in a variance of seven feet and a setback of 18 feet. Denying the variance would negatively affect the utiliW, value, and overall aesthetics of this remodeling project. E. The 7-foot variance (two feet beyond the current stru~) is the minimum needed to shelter the screened porch, an integral element in the open-a/r, flow- through design of the project. The intnmion into th~ ~ethn~ir ia minimal ~inpt~ if off',n~ nnlx, ,-,.,,,~,.I.,o .... ,,I .I,..,~,~ not affect the footprint of the residence. EXHIBIT "D" F. The variance requested is not injurious to the area involved or detrimental to the public welfare. In fact, it would have a positive effect. The adjacent neighbors to the east and west will be unaffected because in both cases their garages face this property, and they have no windows facing this property. Further, dense vegetation separates the properties. The new structure will be more attractive and impressive than the current structure and will add value and beauty to the neighborhood. It will take advantage of the natural environment and breezes, have a Florida style with a large amount of outdoor living space, be harmonioUS with the environment, and, be one of the' most beantififlly designed and landscaped residences in this emerging neighborhood.

PZ 03-226 TO: Chairman and Members Community Redevelopment Agency Board THRU: Michael W. Rumplj~~ Planning and Zoning Director FROM: Maxime Ducoste-Am~d(~e i~'t'~· Planner DATE: November 12, 2003 SUBJECT: Abandonment of a 15-foot wide alley running east-west in Block 4, Lake Addition to Boynton (ABAN 01-004). NATURE OF REQUEST The City of Boynton Beach is requesting abandonment of an unimproved 15-foot wide alley right-of-way located between N.E. 8~h Avenue and N.E. 9th Avenue. This abandonment is for the following unimproved alley segment: A 15-foot alley lying in Block 4 of Lake Addition to Boynton, as recorded in Plat Book 11, Page 71, of the Public Records of Palm Beach County, Florida, being more particularly described as follows: A 15-foot wide alley running east-west in said Block 4, being bounded on the east by the west right-of-way line of N.E. 7~h Street, on the west side by the northerly projection of lot 27 of said Block 4. The location map attached as Exhibit "A" shows the general vicinity of the alley right-of-way to be abandoned. The attached Exhibit "B"- "Proposed Abandonment" is a survey of the subject property, which indicates its proximity to adjacent properties. The following is a description of the zoning districts and land uses of the properties that surround the subject request. North A single-family neighborhood, zoned R-l-A, and farther north, is N.E. 9th Avenue right-of- way; South - A single-family neighborhood, zoned R-l-A, and farther south, is N.E. 8th Avenue right-of- way; East - A single-family neighborhood, zoned R-l-A; and West - An auto repair business (ND Auto Repair shop), zoned C-4; BACKGROUND In March of 1925, the Plat of Lake Addition to Boynton was approved. It included several alleys dedicated to the perpetual use of the public, reserving unto the developers or successors the dght of reversion if not used as such. Page 2 Memorandum No. PZ 03-226 ABAN 01-004 The properties located on the north and south sides of the alley segment to be abandoned are developed with single-family residences. The applicant (City of Boynton Beach) has the intention of vacating the 15-foot wide alley because adjacent properties were not improved to utilize the alley and it therefore provides no public service for access purposes. The 15-foot wide alley as shown on the survey will be converted to a utility easement equivalent in width to the existing alley. When abandoned the alley segment will revert to the adjacent property owners. It should be noted that the City had previously abandoned an alley segment running north and south within the same block, which connects to the alley segment subject to this request. ANALYSIS Pursuant to Chapter 22, Article III, Section 4, public notice was given to the property owners that abut the right-of- way to be abandoned, 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: CITY DEPARTMENTS/DIVISIONS Engineering - No objection Public Works/Utilities - Approval with conditions (see Exhibit Planning and Zoning - No objection PUBLIC UTILITY COMPANIES Florida Power and Light Approval with conditions (see Exhibit Bell South Approval with conditions (see Exhibit "C") Florida Public Utilities Company Approval with conditions (see Exhibit "C') Cable Company (Adelphia) Approval with conditions (see Exhibit "C") Cable Company (Comcast) - N/A RECOMMENDATION Stafffinds that the subject alley provides no public purpose except for utilities, and therefore recommends that this request to abandon the 15-foot wide alley as described above, be approved, subject to the comments included in Exhibit "C' - Conditions of Approval. Any conditions required by the Community Redevelopment Agency Board and the Commission will be placed in Exhibit "C" - Conditions of Approval. xc: Central File S:~=Iannlng~SHARED~WP~PROJECTS~Mangrove Alley Abandcmment~ABAN 01-004~staff rep(xt.doc I in. = 175.0 feet NE gTH AVE NERTH AVE j Mangrove Walk Alley EXHIBIT"A" ,pROPOSED ABANDOMENT EXHIBIT "C" Conditions of Approval Project name: Mangrove Walk Alley File number: ABAN 01-004 DEPARTMENTS INCLUDE REJECT PUBLIC WORKS- General Comments: 1.

Thc City staffbelicves this is an issue that needs to bc adc[rcsscd b~"thc developer bc£orc approval of thc mediation agreement. EXPLANATION: Thc Second Mediation Agreement represents thc culmination o£many months o£ncgotiation between thc City, thc TRG-Boynton Beach Ltd. (dcvclopc0 and DSS Properties, Ltd. (Two Georges). The Agreement addresses mutual concerns regarding thc impact of thc Marina Village project on the businesses along Casa Loma Blvd. as well as private and public parking issues. Thc Agreement, it' adopted, would rep]acc thc existing Amended Mediation Agreement and thc Development Agreement between thc City and TRG's successor in interest (Garcia). Thc Community Redevelopment Agency has approved a collateral agreement with TRG whereby thc CRA will fund thc construction of ?0 spaces in thc Related parking structure. Approval of thc Agreement includes re-approval o£thc site plan to authorize minor modifications necessary to satisfy concerns of thc adjacent propertY/owners. PROGI~a~M I~PACT: Approval of thc Agreement will £acilitatc development of thc proposed Marina Village project in a manner beneficial to all a££cctcd parties. FISCAL I_~IPACT: Thc £mancia] benefit to thc City is thc same with our without thc mediation agreement. Overall, thc development of the Marina property provides a dffcct property tax benefit to thc CRA and indkcct economic development benefit to the City. The long-term impact of increased business and residential activity to thc City on property within thc CRA, is an important topic for bilateral discussions between thc CRA and thc City Commission. Per statute, thc assessed value of thc Marina property for City property tax revenue purposes, is f~ozcn at thc pre-development level. Thc increase in thc assessed value derived F~om development on this parcel and others in thc CRA go to thc CRA to t'md redevelopment and other appropriate public benefit activities. Staffbclievcs that some basic City service costs and participation by thc CRA in capital projects to benefit the CRA should be captured as part o£thc future development increment o£parcc]s in thc CRA.

Amended Mediation Agreement Rescinded. The Amended Mediation Agreement (hereinafter the "Amended Mediation Agreement") entered into on June 12, 2000, by Two Georges, the City, and Ocean Breeze Festival Park, Inc. (hereinafter referred to as "Ocean Breeze"), TRG's predecessor-in-title, is hereby rescinded, and the rights of the parties shall be as set forth in this Second Amended Mediation Agreement; however, the following terms of the Amended Mediation Agreement shall continue: a. The City shall not object to the stand-up waiting area (no food service) located on the second floor of the Two Georges Restaurant, provided Two Georges shall be required to obtain any necessary permits from other governmental agencies having jurisdiction over the use of such area; b. The existing Two Georges parking as reflected on Exhibit "A-1" attached hereto may be used as valet parking. The center aisle may be used for valet queuing and access, but shall otherwise be kept clear. c.

Two Georges shall have the right to place appropriate signs and/or pavement markings to identify said parking spaces for its customers. Two Georges shall also have the right to enforce this provision by towing vehicles found to be in violation.

The parties agree that there has been a historical shortage of parking in the area along Casa Loma Boulevard. Two Georges agrees that the businesses which operate on property owned or under the control of Two Georges are as set forth on Exhibit "H" and that they are the only businesses which are considered "grand-fathered" and entitled to operate without having to provide additional on-site parking. Changes in use or expansion of the Two Georges Restaurant or the businesses listed on Exhibit "H" occurring after the date of this Agreement shall require compliance with City parking regulations in place at the time of the change in use or expansion. The tables and chairs permitted by Paragraph 7 of this Second Amended Mediation Agreement and the stand up area on the second floor of the Two Georges Restaurant shall not constitute a change in use or expansion. 2 5.

This one hundred eighty (180) day period may be extended in the event that the issuance of the permit(s) is delayed by the issuing authority, as long as Two Georges is diligently pursuing the issuance of such permit(s). The City's issuance of permits is not automatic, but is contingent on compliance with all regulatory conditions for issuance of a permit. No conditions of the City Code are impliedly waived by this provision. Two Georges shall be responsible for the maintenance of its trash compactor and enclosure. 6.

Task Force has requested City Commission authorization to expend funds for stabilization of building and to authorize the Task Force the opportunity to develop a use allocation plan for the building and integrate the building into the campus planning. EXPLANATION: At the request of the City Commission, the CRA spearheaded the creation of and work of a special task force convened to study the condition of the Mangrove High School building and to make recommendations to the City Commission as to whether the building could be saved or not. Previous City staff reports indicated that the building was beyond salvageable condition and should be removed. The City Commission allocated funds in the Capital Improvement Fund for this purpose but authorized the creation of the Task Force to study the issue before a final decision was made on demolition. The consultant hired by the Task Force (Bender & Associates) did not address the issue of asbestos abatement as part &their scope of work. This work will need to be addressed as part ora subsequent report. This is an important issue as the 1993 study noted that asbestos removal, if needed, would be substantial cost. The 2003 report, suggests that asbestos can be encapsulated at minimal cost. This aspect of the report must be verified. If the building were demolished, costs related to asbestos containment would be incurred. PROGRAM IMPACT: The refurbishment of the building may have a positive effect on campus planning work for the City Hall area because the total area of the building is 28,420 sq. fi. (14,600 sq. fi. first floor, 13,820 sq. fi. second floor). City and non-City uses need to be evaluated carefully. FISCAL IMPACT: The current City Budget has $50,000 available. The Task Force estimates that the cost will be $50,000 to perform the second phase of the study. In addition, an asbestos inspection of the building is recommended at a cost of $3,250. The costs incurred for the study as of this date has been $46,913 from fiscal year 2002-03 Budget. To proceed with the physical repairs to the building will require the City Commission to allocate funds from the CIP reserves to perform this work. The preliminary estimate, absent any asbestos work, is $250,000 to stabilize the building. The total estimated cost to refurbish the building into useable spaces is $3.2 M. Subsequent costs of specific re-use of areas of the building, though substantially less would be added. S:'tI3ULLETINX, FORMSLa, GENDA ITEM REQUEST FORM.DOC O CITY OF BOYNTON BEACH AGENDA ITEM REQUEST FORM ALTERNATIVES: 1. Follow the Task Force's Recommendation to stabilize the building at a cost of approximately $250,000 at this time and request the Task Force to continue its work with a second phase of the report to include adaptive re-use options at a cost of approximately $50,000. This will require a budget appropriation. 2. Proceed with the asbestos abatement study first at an estimated cost of $3,250 before authorizing the stabilization of the building so that an informed decision on this issue is available. Funds are available for this purpose. 3. Hold discussion of this project until the City Commission concludes discussion on Capital Improvement priorities. The City Commission is set to discuss the CIP on December 19, 2003. 4. Authorize City staff to obtain an additional opinion on the building condition. (Please see staff report from Risk Manager, dated November 24, 2003 attached.) 5. Combination of options #2 and #3 above.

The City Commission approved the formation of an Old High School Task Force based on the following three-part recommendation: 1. Allocate $50,000 from the City's Capital improvement fund for a feasibility study for adoptive reuse of the structure, which was discussed in Mr. Hutchinson's report dated November 19, 2002. 2. Postpone demolition plans until after January 1, 2004. 3. Establish an ad hoc seven-member Task Force made up of representatives of the CRA (three, including the director), the Cultural Board, and two community groups. The CRA Director has recommended that the Task Force be expanded to nine members to allow for two more representatives from Community groups, such as the Recreation and Parks Board, to participate. Mr. Bressner was in accord with this recommendation. · Doug Hutchinson, CRA Director · Don Fenton, CRA Board · William Odove, Private Citizen · Adeen Dennison, Director Children's Science Museum · Henderson Tillman, CRA Board · Ron Weiland, Former City Commissioner · Dale Sugerman, Assistant City Manager · Taryn Wheat, Board of Director, Boynton Cultural Centre Task Force Structure Task Force meetings were held on the following dates: Friday March 28th, 2003 4:00P.M. Thursday April 10, 2003 6:00 P.M. Wednesday July 9, 2003 5:30 P.M. Thursday September 25th, 2003 5:30 P.M. On March 28, 2003, the first meeting was held and it was decided that individuals would not be selected as Chair persons and Vice Chair person. Each Member would have an equal say and the group would give the Director of the CRA by vote the ability to act on behalf of the group. The Consultant SelectiOn Process On April 10, 2003, a RFQ was drafted and approved. The Task Force selected Bender and Associates after a RFQ was posted and a total of three proposals were received from the following: · Atelier Architecture Engineering Construction Inc. of Tampa, Florida · Bender & Associates of Key West, Florida · Robert G. Currie Partnership, Inc. Architects of Delray Beach, Florida Upon review of the candidates, the Task Force felt strongly that Bender and Associates had the significant experience and background with the assessment of Historic buildings and furthermore the applicant, unlike it's competitors, was not locally based and would be able to give a fresh unbiased perspective because they were not involved in the history of the building. The group voted unanimously to proceed with Bender and Associates and gave the CRA Director, Douglas Hutchinson, direction to proceed with contract negotiations. 4 Site Evaluation Bender and Associates, over a period of four days, accessed the building with direction to evaluate the. structure, environment and mechanical elements. Initial verbal reports from the team were very positive and indicated that the building was structurally and environmentally sound. Pigeon feces are present but the building could be accessible with the removal of 't'he feces. On November 10, 2003, Bender and Associates submitted their official findings and recommendations to the Task Force. The Task Force Recommendations A. The High School Task Force recommends that the City Commission accept the recommendatiOns of Bender and Associates to renovate/rehab the structure and not remove it. B. The High School Task Force recommends to the City Commission that the Phase 1 Stabilization plan, recommended by Bert Bender and Associates, is 'accepted and that the City allocates funds not to exceed $250,000 towards that plan. C. The High School Task Force recommends that the City Commission grant the High School Task Force the opportunity to identify users and develop a use allocation plan, design an Area master plan for the building as it relates to the immediate area including the City Hall and the Children's Museum, and design a Business Plan Performa including sources of capital.

BENDER AND ASSOCIATES SUMMARY EXCERPTS 7 .INTRODUCTION EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: This analysis and report was commissioned by the City of Boynton Beach Community. Redevelopment Agency for the purpose of determining if the Boynton Beach Historic High School should be rehabilitated or demolished. Our analysis includes field surveys of structural, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, environmental and architectural features over a four day period. Field personnel included Richard Grupenhoff and Bob Miro of Evans Environmental and Geosciences; electrical engineer Richard Nodarse of HNGS; structural engineer Mark KeiSter of Atlantic Engineering Services; and architectural personnel from Bender & Associates, Janine Glaeser, Haven Burkee and Bert Bender. While this report focuses on the physical condition of the building, it's historic importance and contribution to the architectural fabric of the City can not be overlooked. In general, ! consider the preservation and restoration of our historic built environment to be among the most important endeavors that we undertake. This link to our past is what forms our identity and guides our future. The restoration and preservation of our historic buildings are among the most important legacies that we leave for future generations. There is an intrinsic value to our heritage that cannot be measured in dollars and cents. In this case, the preservation of this building makes economic sense as well as being a socially responsible action. The Boynton Beach Historic High School was built in 1927 on the west side of the 1913 school house. Currently, the high school is abandoned and the 1913 school house has been renovated as a children's museum with a children's playground, parking and public restrooms adjacent_to it. These are the only buildings on the site and the two historic buildings, in combination, create a strong sense of time and place. Our analysis determined that the historic high school is structurally sound and can easily, be returned to use. Even if its structural condition was marginal, saving the building aS'a historic resource could easily be justified. In this context, the loss of the high school would have a negative impact on the adjacent historic school house and the neighborhood. The Mediterranean re¥iyal style is dominant on surrounding buildings. It's influence is apparent on older histo~'ig and newer non-historic buildings alike. Preserving the high school will reinforce the Mediterranean revival style's associafl=~. with the history of Boynton Beach and maintain the architectural integrity of the surrounding district. BOYNTON BEACH HISTORIC HIGH SCHOOL WORK PRIORITIES/RECOMMENDATIONS in general, the highest priority is structural stabilization, making the building watertight and reversing the damage caused by water intrusion. Additional damage is caused daily by inattention to this problem. This includes the full replacement and/or restoration of the roofs and roof drainage systems, structural stabilization of roof structures and support systems, defoliation, repair of wall cracks, correction of site drainage and repair, replacement of windows. After the initial stabilization work, other items carYproceed as funds are budgeted. The Boynton Beach Historic High School, however, is somewhat unique in that the building is closed to the public for environmental reasons, specifically because of pigeon feces in the gymnasium. Current City policy is for all persons entering the building to use respirators, protective clothing and hard hats. Medical exams certifying that no health risks from use of a respirator are also required. This requirement increases costs for all work associated with the building as additional time and effort is required for all activities on the building interior. Abatement of the pigeon feces is required and even if total demolition is planned, some special precautions would be required. Work priorities are as follows: 1. Abatement of pigeon feces. 2. Reroof the entire building including installation of proper roof drains and weather proofing skylights. It is our recommendation that these first two items be undertaken as soon as possible. In fact, we included a proposal for abatement of pigeon feces during our initial contract f~e negotiations. If desired, the proposal submitted to you earlier can be executed as an amendment to our current contract. This would save time and the expense of document preparation and advertising for proposals. The original abatement proposal from EE&G is included with this report. 3. Selective demolition including def°liation of plants rooted on the building exterior. 4. Stabilize and weatherproof the exterior envelope including any miscellaneous structural repairs such as the damage from the lightning strike, that might be required. 5. Install rough mechanical, electrical and plumbing systems. 6. Complete interiors, doors, windows and finishes. 7. Complete site improvements. BOYNTON BEACH HISTORIC HIGH SCHOOL RECOMMENDATIONS: We can find no justification for demolition of this building. Even if the building had no historic value it would be difficult to recommend it's removal when considering the following: · The building is structurally sound. · The cost to renovate the building will be far less than the cost to demolish it and build a new building of comparable size. · The spaces are easily adaptable to a multitude of new uses. · Renovation will take less time than building new. · · The existing code enforcement offices can remain operational during a renovation, whereas total demolition will require relocation, if for no other reason than to ensure public safety. · Rehabilitation is environmentally better as it uses less energy and natural resources than new construction. Additionally, the historic nature of the property adds the following reasons for preservation over new construction: · Designated historic resources are eligible for State and Federal funding. · Our historic buildings are a record of our past and serve as the basis upon which future generations will judge us as a society. · This building is an important part of the urban fabric and its demolition will have a negative impact on the surrOunding neighborhoOd. · The building has a unique architectural character with details that are no longer used. As such, it represents a unique place in time and history. A new building, no matter how generous the budget, cannot replicate the qualities, character and patina that a historic building gains over time. BOYNTON BEACH HISTORIC HIGH SCHOOL ~COSTS: Our experience with similar projects will serve as the basis for estimating a project budget. This analysis will then be broken down to reflect individual item costs as verification of general comparisons and to provide phased scopes if needed. As a basis of comparing the cost of rehabilitation versus new construction, the cost of a new comparable facility must be established. In our experience, new construction under the 2001 Florida Building Code has been averaging between $200 and $250 per square foot. Costs vary according to region, quality and market conditions, but for this analysis we will assume costs for new construction of $230 per square foot. Additional to the cost of new construction are costs for demolition and removal of the existing structure. Extensive renovations typically cost half as much as new construction, but can rise dramatically where extensive structural work is needed. The Boynton Beach Historic High School is in very good condition structurally and I would expect a renovation to be on the Iow side, or about half the cost of a new building. The Boynton Beach Historic High School is 28,400 square feet. A general cost comparison would be: New Renovation 28,400 sf. at $230 $ 6,532,000 28,400 sf. @ $115 $3,266,000 Demolition 150,000 Demolition N/A Total $ 6,682,000 Total $3,266,000 An itemized cost analysis of the high school renovation follows. Very little has been done to modify the structure over the years, so selective demolition will be fairly straight forward. Abaterr~nt of pigeon feces and re-roofing are the primary issues, a price for pigeon feces abatement has already been established at $28,950. Cost Estimate for Phase I: Pigeon Feces Abatement $ 30,000 Selective Demolition/Cleanup 30,000 Re-Roofing (14,200 sf @ $9/sf.) 128,000 Reglaze Skylights (2 @ $1,000 ea.) 2,000 Subtotal $190,000 Contingency at 10% 19,000 Total Phase I $209,000 The above represents work that is required immediately to protect the structure and we recommend proceeding with this work now. We provided you with a proposal to abate pigeon feces as a part of our fee proposal for this report. If desired; that work can proceed now, as an amendment to our contract. A first phase construction scope would then become re-roofing or re-roofing with interior selective demolition and clean BOYNTON BEACH HISTORIC HIGH SCHOOL up, including removal of loose plaster at seCOnd floor ceilings in areas of roof leaks. Cost estimate Phase II through completion: Repair damage from lightning strike $ 5,000 Exterior renovations 28,400 sf. @ $6/sf. 170,000 Restore/replace windows, 150 windows @ $2,000 ea. 300,000 Elevator addition 100,000 Storm protection for windows (150 windows at $500/window) 75,000 Plumbing system restoration (28,400 sf @ $3.50/sf.) 100,000 Note: plumbing price assumes re-use of fixtures Mechanical systems (28,400 sf. @ $7/sf.) 200,000 Electrical systems (28,400 sf. @ $17.50/sf) 500,000 Interior renovations (28,400 sf @ $ 50/sf) 1,420,000 SubtOtal Phase II $2,870,000 Contingency at 10% 287,000 Total Phase II $3,157,000 Add Phase I 209,000 Total probable project COst $3,366,000 The intedor renovations b.udget assumes that wood floors would be refinished and damaged plaster ceilings will be repaired or replaced in kind with plaster that matches the histodc material. There are no costs in this estimate as it is assumed that site development COsts would be the same for new COnstruction or a renovation. Also, soft COsts for items such as architectural or engineering fees are not shown. However, soft costs should be roughly proportional to the sCOpe of each, about 10% to 12% of construction cost. Additionally, the asbestos survey update will add approximately $3,500 to soft COsts. BOYNTON BEACH HISTORIC HIGH SCHOOL CONCLUSION Based on this report, it is our recommendation that the Boynton Beach Historic High School be preserved and rehabilitated. Further, the uniqueness of this resource requires that an accurate historic restoration of the exterior be undertaken, including restoration and/or installation of historically appropriate wood windows. Interiors should be restored to greatest extent possible, which would include recovering important details such as glass transoms. Compliance with the Secretary of Interiors Standards for Rehabilitation should be required. This will ensure that the property retains its eligibility for preservation grant funds and/or listing as a historic resource on Local, State and Federal Registers of Historic Places. BOYNTON BEACH HISTORIC HIGH SCHOOL MINUTES OF OLD HIGH SCHOOL TASK FORCE MINUTES OF THE HIGH SCHOOL TASKFORCE MEETING REGULAR MEETING HELD IN CRA OFFICE BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA ON FRIDAY MARCH 28, 2003 4:00 P.M. Present Doug Hutchinson, CRA Director Don Fenton, CRA Board William Orlove, Private Citizen Adeen Dennison, Director Schoolhouse Children's' (History) Museum Taryn Wheat, Ron Weiland, City Commissioner Vince Zabik, Contactor Absent Henderson Tillman, CRA Board I. Call to Order Doug Hutchinson called the meeting to order at 4:05. II. Introduction Everyone introduced themselves and why they were asked to be on the task force. A. Project Review and Status: CRA Staff and Vincent Zabik of Show . Case Contractors. Doug Hutchinson presented an overview of why the Task Force was formed and a history of the process. Doug explained that he was given a charge to determine if the High School was worth saving and what types of readaptive uses could be put in the High School building. After having conversation with several groups as to space needs, Doug set up a meeting .to view the inside of the High School. Doug Hutchinson, Vince Zabik, Larry Finkelstein, Arleen Dennison, and Jim Barrett toured the High School and took pictures. The entire group came to the same conclusion that the High School was in great shape and should be looked at again. Doug Hutchinson presented these findings to the CRA Board. Kurt Brenesser also offer $50,000.00 to form a task force to perform the studies necessary to determine is the High School could be reused to not. The CRA Board voted to set a Task Force to determine the following and present their findings back to the CRA Board in one year. 1. Request the $50,000.00 for the City of Boynton Beach 2. ask for a one-year extension 3. Create a seven member task force to perform the studies and bring the results back to the CRA Board in one year. Vince Zabik, an independent contactor, who went with the group, presented his findings with a list of potential problems that cooresponsed to the pictures to the task force. The list is attached to the minutes. Doug presented a copy of previous structural report for GEE & Jensen and the Feasibility Cost Study by REG to the task force. Don Fenton stated that he would like to get new structural and environmental studies completed right away so they could set the record straight as to the structural conditional of the High School. Don suggested that an RFQ for both structural and environmental be completed right away. The Task Force suggested that the contractors given the job should not have done business with the City of Boynton Beach before if possible due to the perception problem the High School already has. It was decided that Doug Hutchinson would have an RFQ ready for the Task Force at there next meeting. B. Select Task force Chair Person and Vice Chair Person The Taskforce decided they wanted to meet as a group and did not need a Chair Person or Vice Chair Person. The Taskforce did ask Doug Hutchinson to set up the meetings. C. Establish date and time for site visit The Taskforce decided they would set up a meeting for the High School site visit will be April 7th or 8th. D. Establish date and time for next meeting The Taskforce set up the next meeting on April 10th at 6:00 PM at the CRA Office. III. Other Items. There were none. IV. Adjournment at 5:10 PM MINUTES OF THE HIGH SCHOOL TASKFORCE MEETING REGULAR MEETING HELD IN CRA OFFICE BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA ON THURSDAY APRIL 10, 2003. Present Doug Hutchinson, CRA Director Don Fenton, CRA Board William Orlove, Private Citizen Arleen Dennison, Director Children's' Science Museum Henderson Tillman, CRA Board Ron Weiland, City Commissioner Dale Sugerman, Assistant City Manager Absent Taryn Wheat I. Call to Order Doug Hutchinson called the meeting to order at 6:00. Approval of the Minutes There were no corrections to the minutes so Don Fenton approved the minutes as is and Ron Wieland second the minutes of the last High School Task Force Meeting. II. Business Meeting A. Review the RFP for Environmental Study B. Review the RFP for Structural Study Doug Hutchinson discussed the RFP's for Environmental and Structural with the Task Force. Doug added that he had included the ADA and Life Safety Issues in the RFP's to make the building stable and livable. Bill Odove asked if the scoring included if the business had every done business with the City of Boynton Beach due to the fact that the Task Force wanted a new third party to look at the High School. Doug explained that would be considered as part of the scoring. Doug also suggested that the whole Task Force do the scoring on the RFP's. Adene inquired, in the background section, should it be included within the RFP if a firms had every suggested a demolition as opposed to restoration of a structure? Doug stated he felt that the High School was in good enough shape that no structural or environmental engineering firm would suggest to demolish it, but that it would come down to the price to restore it. It was decided that the RFP's would be published in News Papers, Trade magazines, Trade Journals for 45 days. The Notice would state that the RFPs would be due back to the CRA by 30 days. The Task Force would also do there walk through the High School on April 18, 2003 at 10:00 AM. It was decided that the Task Force members that were walking through the High School would meet at the CRA office at 9:30 AM. C. Establish date and time for next meetinq It was decided that the Team would set the time when the RFP's were received back at the CRA office. III. Other Items. There were none. IV. Adjournment at 6:25 PM MINUTES OF THE HIGH scHOOL TASKFORCE MEETING REGULAR MEETING HELD IN CRA OFFICE BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA ON WEDNESDAY, JULY 9, 2003 Present Doug Hutchinson, CRA Director Don Fenton, CRA Board William Orlove, Private Citizen Taryn Wheat, Board of Director, Boynton Cultural Centre Arleen Dennison, Executive Director Schoolhouse Children's' Museum Absent Henderson Tillman, CRA Board and Ron Weiland, City Commissioner I. Call to Order Doug Hutchinson called the meeting to order at 5:35 pm. II. Business Meeting A. RFQ Submittals Review and Selection Approximately twenty firms contacted the CRA office for information related to the RFQs with three firms actually submitting to the requests. Those firms responding include: 1. Atelier Architectural Engineering Construction Inc. out of Tampa 2. Bender & Associates Architects from Key West 3. Robert G. Currie Partnership, Inc. from Delray Beach A review and discussion of the proposals ensued resulting in the following observations: · Atelier only bid on the structural half of the project. Hiring their firm would mean bringing a second firm on board to conduct the environmental survey. · The task force felt it was imperative to select a firm that had no prior history with Boynton's historic schools or previous business with the City of Boynton Beach to attain an impartial and apolitical report. That weighed significantly on the ranking for Robert G. Curde Partnership for this phase of the process addressing the decision for renovation or demolition. If the project moves to the renovation stage, Robert G. Currie Partnership would be a viable candidate to rebid on the project. · Even though Bender is located in Key West, they have significant experience with similar projects across the state of Florida such as in St. Augustine and Jupiter. Ranking of the proposals were as follows: Task Force Member Atelier Bender Currie Orlove 2 I 3 Wheat 3 1 2 Fenton 3 1 2 Dennison 3 I 2 Hutchinson 3 1 2 The committee unanimously authorized Doug Hutchinson to work with Bender & Associates Architects from Key West on a contract for both the environmental and structural reports. B. Set Next Meeting Time and Date The next meeting of the Task Force will take place after Doug Hutchinson has negotiated a contract with Bender & Associates Architects and when the firm is ready to visit the Old High School. III. Other Items. There were none. IV.

Call to Order Doug Hutchinson called the meeting to order at 5:45 pm. II, Bender and Associate proposed Contract for Old High School The proposed dollar amount of the C°ntract was acceptable to the members of the task force Don Fenton officially requested copies of the CRA minutes reflecting the city's presentation to the CRA Board where the CRA Board Members were notified that the High School was structurally and environmentally unsound. Mr. Tillman conferred Tracy Wheat requested an explanation of the process and the steps that the Bender and Associates will be taking. Doug Hutchinson responded Bender and associates will conduct a site evaluation after which they will submit a draft report for the taskforce to review. Following the review, the final draft must be submitted to the Task force and finally a presentation a presentation will be made to the commission. Douglas Hutchinson notified the task force that Bender and Associates had a working period of 90 days. Due to the need to make a presentation at the December 2nd 2003 City commission meeting the time frame has been reduced to 30 days. The Final report must be received in the CRA office the Week of November 4th in order to adhere to the City Manager's agenda deadlines. Douglas Hutchinson reported that initial verbal reports from Bender and associates indicated that the building was structurally and environmentally sound. The building could be made readily accessible with approximately $60,000 worth of clean up. Total renovations of the building could run approximately two to three million dollars that would include such items as the installation of an air conditioning system, elevators and any others build outs necessity deemed by the new occupants. Henderson Tillman inquired as to life expectancy of the building Douglas Hutchinson responded another 20 to 30 years assuming reasonable care and maintenance is applied. Don Fenton made the following motion; Douglas Hutchinson will sign the contact on behalf of the task force and include a Time sensitive date of November 4th 2003 for Bender and associates to provide the Task force with the final draft of the report. Henderson Tillman seconded the Motion The Motion passes majority vote. Motion to adjourn Don Fenton 6:12 Pm Second by Arleen Dennison MINUTES OF THEOLD HIGH SCHOOL TASK FORCE MEETING HELD IN CRA OFFICE BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA Thursday November 13, 2003 4:00 PM Present Douglas Hutchinson, CRA Director Don Fenton, CRA Board Taryn Vvheat, Board of Director, Boynton Cultural Centre Arleen Dennison, Executive Director Schoolhouse Children's' Museum Ron VVeiland Bill Orlove (Telephone Conference) Dale Sugerman City Absent Henderson Tillman CRA Board I. Call to Order Doug Hutchinson called the meeting to order at 4:10 pm. II. Mr. Bert Bender of Bender and Associate gave a Synopsis of the team's findings; extrapolated from the official report submitted to the Task Force: Mr. Bender stated that the team spent a total of 4 days on site conducting the evaluation of the building. Elements to which particular attention was paid were Structural, Mechanical and Electrical. It is the findings of the Bender and Associates, that the building could be a part of an adoptive muse Plan and found no justification for demolition. The Pigeon feces that was found could be treated for approximately $30,000 after which the building would be safe for inhabitants. Mr. Bender recommended that the stabilization process would be a 3-part process 1. Treatment and removal of the Pigeon fesses 2. Repair the roof to prevent further deterioration 3. Installment of windows at a date not immediate but soon. Mr. Bender felt that most historical buildings adoptive reuse plans should be the same or similar to the original use. As in the case of this structure it was, is opinion that this building could be rehabbed to allocate uses such as schools office spaces. Mr. Bender also stated other uses can be considered and not impossible as in the case of a library the second floor would need to be load tested and the floor reinforced to meet standards for that type of loading. This process was not excessively difficult or costly to accomplish. Mr. Bender stated that the building has architecturel character and the style of Mediterranean Revival is sought out by many cities today. The rare of the building faces the City Hall entrance recommends some architectural treatments could be added to dress up and link visually and physically to the surroundings. It would be more cost effective to rehab the building instead of attempting to replace it. Ron Weiland, stated that this structure is an asset to Boynton Beach and that he did not see the reason to tear the building down. Don Fenton Posed the question as to the estimated cost to put an elevator into the building. The proposal-from Bender and Associate stated a estimated cost of $100,000. Mr. Bender explained that the elevator it self would cost approximately $50,000 additional cost would depend on the number of stops (in this case 3) and the shaft. Arleen Dennison posed the question as to the area in the kitchen Where the foundation and the wall is separated not mentioned in the report. Mr. Bender responded that a few areas were inaccessible. He felt the situation mentioned by Arleen could easily and inexpensively remedied Ron Weiland wanted to know if the report was 100% accurate since there were some inaccessible areas. Mr. Bender-stated that most of the building was inspected and that the team would have found any catastrophic structural issues. He has every confidence that the building is structurally sound. J Bill Orlove made a motion to recommend to the City Commission to use $250, 000 to stabilize the building (Second by Don Fenton) Discussion Douglas HutchinSon felt that the motion should include more that just the recommendation to stabilize the building. In an effort to continue, the momentum he felt that the Task Force needed to stay involved with the project until users and funding are identified. Dale Sugerman felt that the only focus at this time should be the stabilization of the structure. Arleen Dennison felt that with the support she is aware of from a group of private citizens who are interested in assisting by identifying funding sources, she also wanted the Task Force to remain involved with the process to ensure progress. Don Fenton felt more than one motion or one motion with multiple parts was necessary. Bill Orlove amended his motion as follows: A. The High School Task Force recommends that the City Commission accept the recommendations of Bender and Associates to renovate/rehab the structure and not remove it. (Second by Don Fenton) B. The High School Task force recommends to the City Commission that the Phase 1 Stabilization plan recommended by Bert Bender and Associates is accepted and that the City allocates funds not to exceed $250,000 towards that plan. (Second by Don Fenton) C. The High School Task force recommends that the City Commission grants the High School Task Force the opportunity to identify users and develop a use allocation plan, design an Area master plan for the building as it relates to the immediate area including the City Hall and the Children's Museum, design a business plan Performa including sources of capital. (Second by Arleen Dennison) The Motion passes unanimous majority vote. It was discussed that all members and Mr. Bender will attend the December 2nd City Commission meeting. Douglas Hutchinson will present the Task force recommendations and Mr. Bender will give a brief overview. Other Task force members should be ready to address questions or issues as needed Motion to adjourn Taryn Wheat 5:25pm Second by Arleen Dennison November 17, 2003 Mr. Douglas Hutchinson, Director i A R C tq] ][ WE C q/,5 i p.a. Community Redevelopment, City of Boynton Beach 639 E. Ocean Avenue Suite 107 Boynton Beach, FL 33435 RE: Boyuton Beach Historic High School Dear Doug, This letter will serve to supplemem our report and clarify abatement issues that were not addressed in our summary. Specifically, I call your attemion to the Evans Environmental Geosciences report dated November 5, 2003, "Asbestos Record Review and Recommendatk In this report, Richard notes that an updated asbestos survey should be conducted, as previot reports are old and were inconclusive. Under Item No. 8 of Riehard's report, he notes that plaster is determined to contain greater than 1% asbestos, it would need to be abated prior to demolition. The reason for this is that demolition would create a friable situation, i.e. asbestc dust would become airborne. If the building is renovated, the plaster does not need to be abaleM because it would not become friable and the paint would encapsulate any asbestos, containln.~ materials. (ACM). I call this to your attention because in our cost estimate comparison, under the total demolitk option, we estimated $150,000 for total demolition. This portion of our report was prepared prior to receiving Richard's report and the cost analysis was not updated to reflect these pete ntial abatement costs. Richard estimates that i__f plaster is ACM, the abatement costs alone could p:ach $350,000. This is a worst case scenario, but under this circumstance, total demolition will ex;~'eed $500,000 which increases the cost of new construction. As stated previously, this abatement cost would not be incurred for a rehabilitation. Our report includes a proposal from EE&G to conduct an asbestos survey for a not to exceec fee of $3,250.

The historic Boynton Beach High School building is under consideration for either historic rer~,;~on or complete demolition. Bender & Associates Architects has provided EI:&G with some re :ords involving previous asbestos sampling episodes at the site. This letter is a review summar., and recommendations with cost estimates for updating the records for permitting purposes~ Bender Architects provided EE&G with the following documents 1) A 1993 ATEG review' and recommendation letter of Entek/Palm Beach Oounty School Board data from 1992 outlining; ~ion items and possible cost implications for each, and 2) an engineering report from lgg3 outlining,Y(her structural issues and possible remedial costs. Based on EE&G's review of these items we pre i:ose the following recommendations: For Renovation or Demolition of the BBHS structure (interiors and roof): 1. EE&G agrees with April 1;)93 ATEC evaluation ot the available limited data in that sar~ piing was not extensive enough in types of suspect materials sampled and also the numl,~r of samples of materials sampled. EE&G will provide a proposal to perform this inspection under separate cover. 2. Additional sampling will be necessary (i.e. a complete comprehensive updated surw~y) to produce a survey document that. is acceptable for Palm Beach County DNPuo pern' tting review prior to renovations. This sampling should include the roof also as no sampling,:,l:the roof decks (field membranes or flashings) was previously performed. 3. This updated document would also serve as a platform for soliciting bids from qu; lified contractors for abatement removal as needed as per specified by renovation plans whic:~ are yet unknown. 11/18/2003 12:00 FAX 305 296 2727 BENDER & ASSOCIATES ~003 Mr. Bert Bender November 5, 2003 Page 2 4o As for estimated removal costs, based on previous data and EE&G's site observations,:,~Jring a recent visit, probable ACMs definitely include all previously identified 9x9~ floor til !~ and adhering black mastic which total approximately 18,000 square feet. If abated il~ one mobilization on both floors, the cost for this removal could approach $3 per square f :,ot or approximately $55,000. This does not include related consulting/testing costs (10-1~!% of removal costs) or replacement/repair of any damaged wood flooring if that occurs. On, ? note to consider i$ that for demolition of the entire structure, no removal of ACM floorings, ,/ould be required as they are nonfriable materials that could be demolished in place and thus .~nfact witht the structure. This exception also applies to any nonfriable asphalt-based ACM n ~ofing materials identif'~cl also. 5. As for "assumed" ACM pipe rittings, straight run insulation, miscellaneous 12x12" floo~ tiles, and a kiln, EE&G would estimate an additional $10,000 for their removal only if the y are confirmed to be ACM during the resurvey. This cost may be less if work is pref¢ ~-med following necessary demolition of damaged plaster ceilings and walls on both floors. 6. As for previously unsampled and thus unidentified items, EE&G cannot estimate this re '~oval amount although the relative structural simplicity of the structure and Iow diversity of bt lilding components and finishes would point towards a lower unknown cost as compared wf:h the flooring removal costs. 7. However, the largest building component to be impacted during this renovation/dern~lition would be the plaster system on walls and ceiling throughout the structure. Previous su ~veys assumed it to be ACM but also identified one sample as >1% asbestos, thus it is cons~ :lered to be ACM. EE&G would concentrate effort and samples on either confirming the !;nb're structure has ACM plaster or delineating a minimal amount is ACM by extensive samp lng in a smaller area. It cannot be ruled out that this one "positive" sample from 1992 may b !~ due to inspector sampling error (i.e. cross contamination) or lab technician errm (i.e. misidentification), although these possibilities are unlikely. 8. In any case, if plaster is confirmed to be ACM throughout the structure, EE&G estir, lates removal and disposal costs to be in the $250-$350,000 range ($5-7 per SF) for renovg ion or demolition purposes. Again this does not include consulting/testing fees which can 'ange from 10-15 % of total abatement costs. However, savings on other VFT abatement cost ~.' may be embedded in this figure as removal would be done en masse (i.e. per floor).

Task I - Building Inspection and Sample Collection An EE&G asbestos inspector(s) will conduct a walk-through of the subject building to vi,, ually assess suspect friable and nonfrlable asbestos-containing materials (ACM) for concition, homogenous areas, and functional spaces. Upon receipt of notice to proceed, EE&G w~ll collE ,:t up to 75 bulk samples from the interior, exterior and roof decks and transport the samples to o .~r in- house asbestos laboratory for analysis. The estimate of 75 samples maximum assumes sam piing of each accessible homogenous area (HA) in the subject structure. Task 2 - Laboratory Analysi,~ Bulk samples will be analyzed for asbestos content by polarized light microscopy (PLM) at EE ![G's in-house asbestos laboratory. The laboratory analysis report will be included in the final asb, ~stos survey report. EE&G anticipates that 75 samples will be adequate to complete the survey ¢ '; the building and show asbestos content of representative materials within the structure. As per United States (US) Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulations, any f/~ble materials found to contain less than 10% asbestos by visual estimation, may require analysis b t~ the objective Point Count Method for confirmation of asbestos content. This analysis may be perfo~]Tmd for an additional $45 per sample at the request of the Client. Any unused sample fees Imm unanalyzed samples may be applied to any Point Counts required.

Fietd/CADD diagrams and/or photographs will be provided in the n !port. The report will be reviewed and signed by a Licensed Asbestos Consultant. For an addition~l fee, EE&G can provide additional consulting services for the removal of identified friable or nonf 'iable ACBMs prior to renovation including bid assistance, contractor selection, and final air monit,:,Hng. FEE EE&G's estimated fee for completion of this project is not to exceed $3,250.00. This fee assumes that EE&G will survey the site in multiple site visits. This fee also assume:~ that each suspect material will be sampled and analyzed, and that 75 samples will be suffici( '~t to adequately survey the structure. If more than 75 samples are required to adequately complel e the survey, EE&G will collect the additional samples, Bender & Associates Architects will be nol ified, and the additional samples will be analyzed by PLM for $15 each upon authorization by The IJ rban s Group. This fee is expected to be sufficient to accomplish the Statement of Services descr :bed; however, no guarantee is made or implied. LIMITATIONS AND ASSUMPTIONS' The following limitations and assumptions apply to this proposal: If requested, EE&G may be required to collect roof and/or exterior samples to satisfy s[~rvey requirements. Although EE&G can temporarily patch sample holes, EE&G assume ~ no responsibility for voiding of any roof warranties or for the integrity of the roof or temp~ ~rary patch. EE&G recommends patching be conducted by a roofing contractor to maintair any roof warranty in force. · Our fee is based on the collection and analysis of up to a maximum 75 samples. The Owner of the property, or the Owner's authorized representative, will provide on.-Tall, complete access to all areas of the budding. · Some building materials may not be accessible or exposed due to renovafion/modific~ ~tion activities that have occurred since original building construction: EE&G will not be held responsible for sampling, analysis, and subsequent identification of ACBMs that are not "reasonably accessible". For the purpose of this proposal, "reasonably accessible" includes, but is not limited to, "accessible without destruction of floors, walls, or '~ard ceilings, capable of sampling with hand tools, and reachable with a 16' extension lad~ ler." · Any large scale destruction of walls or finishes in search of ACBMs will only be condu ::ted by EE&G at the direction of B&AA and only after wriffen permission is granted. · If available, the Owner will provide architectural plans available for use during the sur,,ey.

RECEIVED F TO: Kurt Bressner / NOV 2 4 2003 City Manager CIIY MANAGER'S OFFICE FROM: Chuck Magazine [~) (~r~44 Risk Manager L DATE: November 24, 2003 SUBJECT: Old High School Per your request, I am providing a report based upon previous inspections and reports regarding this building. It is my understanding that the CRA has obtained a report outlining a proposal to renovate the building and bring it up to a usable status. September 30, 1992 A report was completed by Gee & Jenson Engineers. This was based upon a walk-through assessment of the two school buildings. No monetary costs were included in this report. There was a recommendation for a thorough investigation of the structure and utilities. It was also recommended that research be done to determine what requirements were necessary to meet life safety codes and ADA requirements, along with hazardous materials, such as asbestos. (See Attachment A.) April 14, 1993 A Buildings and Site Compliance Review for ADA/Handicapped Accessibility and Life Safety Issues was completed by Gee & Jenson Engineers. This was completed on both the elementary and high school. The projected costs for the high school just for ADA/Handicapped and Life Safety totaled $465,080.00. (See Attachment B.) August5,1997 City Commission Agenda item recommending approval to demolish the old high school. This listed minimum repairs to the roof, HVAC, and termite treatment costing approximately $300,000.00. Bringing the building up to minimum code requirements would cost approximately $1,306,404.00. Complete restoration of the building was estimated at between $3.5 and $5 million. The recommendation included as an attachment, Facilities Management Division Memorandum No. 97-91. This included a breakdown of estimated costs for the high school of $3,480,724.00. It also noted the cost of demolition as estimated between $80,000-$120,000.00. (See Attachment C.) September 11, 1997 Memorandum from Fire Chief discussing issues related to planned use of building as relates to life safety code. It was noted, "...most major systems would require renovation." It was also noted, "...problems identified related to building (structural), electrical, and plumbing..." No cost estimates were included. (See Attachment D.) TO: Kurt Bressner SUBJECT: Old High School November 24, 2003 October24,2000 Memorandum from Fire Chief to City Manager. This memorandum advised the need to remove all active storage from the building. Also see attached memorandum dated July 28, 1999 from Fire Marshall to Fire Chief advising that was red tagged to prohibit admittance. Also see attached memorandum dated November 16, 1999 from Fire Marshall to Fire Chief identifying nine minimum upgrades required. No cost estimates were included. (See Attachment E.) October 8, 2001 Memorandum from Building Official to Director of Development. This memorandum reviewed the inspection of the old high school on behalf of the representatives for the Boynton Beach Historical Society. This included architect and general contractor, along with the City's Fire Marshall, Plumbing and Mechanical Inspector, Building Official and Risk Manager. This inspection was overseen by an outside safety consultant. This memorandum documented the discussion with the architect after the inspection. The architect estimated the cost to rehabilitate the building at between $3.5 and $4 million. Also see attached report of building inspection conducted on April 3, 2001, by Building Official and staff. No cost estimates were included. (See Attachment F.) The Report to the City Commission from the Old High School Task Force, based upon the Existing Conditions & Structural Analysis conducted by Bender & Associates, outlines a two- phase renovation of the building. The first phase is predominantly pigeon feces abatement and re-roofing, for a total of $209,000.00. The second phase is the actual renovation of the building for a total of $3,366,000.00. I am neither an engineer nor an architect, so I am unable to discuss any conflicts or discrepancies between the Bender analysis and those documents and comments, regarding this building, go back as far as 1992. I would point out that previous estimates were in excess of $3.5 million going back as far as 1997. If this project is to be taken over by the CRA, I would strongly recommend that the CRA purchase the building (not the land) and assume full responsibility for this project. This would allow the City to remove the building from our list of insured buildings, and to transfer the risk totally to the CRA. Please advise if you need additional information in this matter. ATTACHMENTS cc: Wilfred Hawkins, Assistant City Manager RM/OId High School Review 11 2003 Attmchment A I~C~IV~D OCT I 1992 CITY MANAGER'S OFFICE GEE & JENSON Engineers-Nchitects- September 30, 1992 I~annem. City of Boynton Beach 100 E. Boynton Beach Blvd. Boynton Beach, Florida 33425-0310 Attention: Ms. Carrie Parker Assistant City Manager Re: Review of School Bldgs. S. of City Hall Gentlemen: On the afternoon of September 24, 1992, I performed a walk-though assessment of the two school buildings to the south of Boynton City hall. Accompanying me on this walk-through were Carrie Parker (present for part of the time), Bill Debeck, and school custodians (two men alternated). As far as I know, we were able to gain access to all rooms. We first went through the larger two story building (Building 1) on the west side of the site which was built in 1927, and then through the smaller two story building to the east (Building 2) which was built in 1913. Copies of the rough floor plans of the two buildings that were provided to me at the time of my visit are attached hereto. Both buildings have appa- rently been repaired, modified and remodeled a number of times since their original construction, so it is difficult to always know the age of any particular components. No uncovering of struc- tural components was attempted, so my comments regarding the struc- tural characteristics of the two structures is limited to what I could see during my brief visit. PURPOSE: As I understand the situation, it is the City's intent to take over these two buildings from the County School Board in the near future and restore/remodel them for use as office space, museum space, public activity centers, and possibly a theater in the gymnasium/- assembly area in the upstairs area of the Building 1. Being a structural engineer, my primary purpose was to assess the struc- tural implications of the restoration and conversion of these buildings. I was also asked to provide suggested wording for an RFP for Architect-Engineer services for the City's use in contract- lng for preparation of a schematic design for the proposed improve- ments. One Harvard Circle · West Palm Beach, Florida 33409-1923 · 407/683-3301 · FAX 407/686-7446 City of Boynton Beach Attn: Carrie Parker Date: Sept. 30, 1992 Page: 2 OBSERVATIONS' BUILDING 1 It is difficult to tell without breaking out sections of the wall, but it appears that the walls of primary structure of Building t are constructed of red clay block masonry covered with stucco on the outside and furred out and lathed with 0.5" x 2" wood lath, and plastered or smooth stuccoed on the inside. The red clay block construction is visible in the boiler room (room 114) at the north- west corner of the first level and on the north, east and west sides of the stage (room 20lA). The wood lath is visible in the stair in the northeast corner (adjacent to room 118). The interior walls vary from stucco on wood lath over wood frame construction to drywall over wood frame construction to stucco over concrete masonry. Some of the second floor framing appears to be wood joists to wood beams and columns, while other areas appear to be cast-in-place concrete slab/joists to concrete beams and concrete columns. In rooms 113 and 118 wood columns are visible. In room 111 concrete joists are visible. These concrete joists were cast with the slab, but do not have a smooth formed finish - they have more of an "adobe" like finish which indicates that they may have been plas- tered over. The slab over one of the spans of joists is cracked at about mid-span perpendicular to the joists across the whole room. It is perplexing as to why this crack is present, since the slab in this type of system would normally be in compression at mid-span. Note that room 111 is directly under the gymnasium. In other rooms, the floor and roof structure were hidden by acoustical ceilings - either the old surface applied square perforated tiles or newer suspended acoustical ceilings (sometimes over the older square tiles). In room 118 there is a 6 to 8 inch square wood column built into the west wall that has significant termite damage. We opened a small wood door near the center of this west wall and found a plumbing chase (double wall with 2 to 3 feet of space between) in which the exposed 2x4 studs were heavily deteriorated by termites. Several of the studs were completely eaten through at the base and therefor were not connected to the base 2x4. The small wood door had a sign on the front'indicating ,,Caution - Asbestos". There was other evidence of termite infestation around the wooden door frames in rooms 118 and 120. There were also significant cracks in the ceiling of room 118. This ceiling appeared to be a cast-in-place GEE&JENSON City of Boynton Beach Attn: Carrie Parker Date: Sept. 30, 1992 Page: 3 concrete slab and would be under the stage in room 20lA above. It is not clear what caused this slab to crack. It will be necessary to look under the stage area which was inaccessible at the time of my visit. In my opinion, these cracks did not appear to be a sign of any pending collapse, but they should be investigated further. Any loose concrete pieces could possibly fall and cause injury. In room 105, there are cracks in the partition walls which follow the joints in the drywall or lath board. These do not appear to be of any structural significance. Cracks in the walls of the cor- ridor between rooms 105 (now 103) and 106 may be signs of settle- ment or merely cracks in the plaster of partitions. They look repairable. There is water staining on the ceiling of room 104 (now room 102) which indicate either roof or exterior wall leaks. If from a roof leak, the water would be coming down through the walls in room 208 above. There are a number of ceiling stains on the second floor which indicate a history of roof leaks in the flat portion of the roof to the south of the Gym. The custodian indi- cated that the roof is patched often. In room 201, the gymnasium/assembly room on the second floor, the roof structure appeared to be in satisfactory condition with no signs of corrosion of the joints or members of the steel roof trusses. A more detailed investigation would be required to determine the actual truss capacity including a search for the original drawings, a close up inspection of the trusses to check for corrosion damage and weakened connections, and, if drawings cannot be found, detailed measurements of the members and connec- tions to calculate the design capacity. There are no visible signs of distress in these trusses from the floor level to cause any immediate concern. Some of the wood framing and wood sheathing of the roof appears to have been recently repaired. New unpainted joists and plywood sheathing is visible from the floor. These roof elements were assumably replaced in conjunction with recent re- roofing of the ~u/m. From the outside, the roofing material appears to be relatively new, and new gutters and down-spouts have been installed. There are no air conditioning or fire sprinklers in the gym which will likely be required if the gym is converted to a theatre. The wood floor has some water damage and there may have been some termites in the floor at one time. The space under the stage should be checked'for structural distress and termites. We did not find access to this space. The gym connects to the remain- der of the upstairs via corridors with wood framed walls which may have to be fire rated if this space is to be used as a theatre. GEE & JENSON City of Boynton Beach Attn: Carrie Parker Date: Sept. 30, 1992 Page: 4 Fire sprinklers, air conditioning, fire rated access/e~ress, elevators, ADA requirements, restroom requirements to current codes, and acoustics will be issues which will need investigation before this space can be converted to a theatre or any other type of public assembly type area. In other areas of the upper floor I found no significant signs of structural distress that were not repairable. There are a number of water stains on the ceilings which indicate current or previous roof or wall leaks. There are some settlement cracks visible in the exterior walls of this building although none that I saw were any cause for alarm. All of these cracks should be properly repaired to prevent intru- sion of water and further deterioration. Proper repair will involve routin~ out the cracks for the thickness of the stucco, caulkin~ and fillin~ with appropriate patchin9 mortar. More active cracks may require removal of stucco, coverin~ with wire lath, and restuccoin~. Access to the crawl space under the buildin~ was limited to two small openings on the south side of the building. The substructure of the first floor should be inspected for signs of distress and termites. BUILDING 2- Buildin~ 2 is constructed of concrete masonry units with a stone- like exterior appearance. The walls around the bell tower above the sloped roof are wood frame covered with embossed sheet metal with a pattern similar to the stone like-masonry below. The inter- ior floors, partitions and roof structure all appear to be wood frame. There are no significant signs of structural distress in this building, although there are a number of areas on the second floor that have water damage to the ceilings. A brief look in the attic space between the second flOor and the bell tower found the wood structure in fair condition with some water soaked areas in the sheathing. The shingle roof over the major area of the ~oof is severely a~ed with some spot areas having been replaced with new asphalt shingles which do not match and which are probably leaking around the perimeter of the patches. The covered steps/porch at the south entrance to the buildin~ has been recently reroofed with brownish asphalt shingles. The shingles on the remainder of the buildin~ are silverish. The only access to the upper floor is from GEE & JENSON City of Boynton Beach Attn: Carrie Parker Date: Sept. 30, 1992 Page: 5 the interior wood stair and two exterior steel stairs. The steel stairs should be checked for conformance to current codes and at least cleaned and painted for corrosion protection. There is a wood ramp to the first floor entrance on the south side of the building. There was no access available to the crawl space under the build- ing, only small grated vents in the stem walls. It will be neces- sary to cut an access through either the stem wall or the wood floor in order to assess the structural soundness of the floor and check for termite damage. RECOMMENDATIONS: A more thorough investigation of the structure and building util- ities will be required as a part of the schematic design of any proposed modifications to the structure. This investigation shOuld include a search through the School Board's records for any orig- inal drawings and/or drawings and speCifications of any remodeling or repair projects. The record search should include review of existing and previous maintenance contracts on equipment to deter- mine the service history of the existing mechanical equipment and a review of existing and previous termite/pest control contracts to see what kind of damage was previously uncovered and what was done about it. Detailed plans of the layout of the existing buildings may require development from field measurements. Research of the building and life safety codes and the ADA require- ments will have to be done to determine modifications or limita- tions that apply to these intended uses. The need for such things as fire sprinklers, fire walls, rated doors, elevators, fire rated corridors and stairs, ramps, handicap accessible restrooms, etc., should be verified. The floor capacity of the gymnasium will have to be verified by calculation or by reference on the original .plans. I expect that the roofs of both buildings will have to be replaced except for possibly the gym roof in building 1 and the porch roof on building 2. It appears that the school board has previously investigated.the presence of hazardous materials such as asbestos. If their records are not adequate, a hazardous material survey should be performed. The sign in room 118 and the asbestos tiles on the floors will likely have to be dealt with at some point. In addition to the factors directly involved with the GEF- & JENSON City of Boynton Beach Attn: Carrie Parker Date: Sept. 30, 1992 Page: 6 buildings, such things as parking adequacy for the intended usage, and adequacy of building utility connections and site drainage will have to be checked. Once the general intent of the use of the various spaces is known, then there needs to be a thorough structural investigation of the buildings with the intended design loads in mind. This investi- gation should include removal of selected areas of plaster from ceilings and walls and complete inspection of the crawl space under both buildings. Based on what is found, the load capacities of the floors can be approximated and any needed reinforcing of the struc- ture designed. Uses such as libraries, computer rooms and storage may have to be limited to the 'ground floor with some reinforcing of the floor in those areas. RECOMMENDED R.F.P.: The scope of the Architect/Engineer contract for the Schematic Design Phase of the project should include the following services: 1. Review of school board records for original drawings and records of remodeling and repairs including equipment mainte- nance contracts and term%re/pest control contracts, and any studies or hazardous material surveys. 2. Meet with the City's restoration committee and staff to discuss the desired uses future uses of the buildings and potentials for historical restoration of the buildings exter- ior and public areas. 3.

BOYNTON BEACH HISTORIC.SCHOOLS EXISTING HIGH SCHOOL AND EXISTING ELEMENTARY SCHOOL CITY OF BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA BUILDINGS AND SITE COMPLIANCE REVIEW FOR ADA (AMERICANS WITH DISABILITIES ACT)/HANDICAPPED ACCESSIBILITY AND LIFE SAFETY ISSUES This study is a cursory review of the two buildings and related site in reference to compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)/handicapped and life safety considerations. The buildings may change their usage and/or be renovated into different interior floor plan configurations in the future. The intent of this study is to review the existing conditions for basic compliance or lack thereof relative to meeting present ADA/handicapped accessibility and building life safety requirements without specific details and construction finish considerations. BOYNTON BEACH HISTORIC SCHOOLS ADA/HANDICAPPED ACCESSIBILITY AND LIFE SAFETY ISSUES BUILDINGS AND SITE COMPLIANCE REVIEW PAGE 2 Existinq Hiqh School The existing high school is a two story structure with a symmetrical floor plan. It has a centrally located second floor 'gymnatorium' which originally had its two entrances from the second floor main corridor. The gymnatorium floor level is 23' below the existing second floor level and was entered via ramps from the second floor corridor. The corresponding area below the gymnatorium is 25' below the first floor level. The following is an itemized review of existing conditions relative to ADA/handicapped accessibility requirements. It is supplemented by photographs and floor plans as attachments. 1. ExistinQ Main/South Entrance~ (two symmetrical entries) Entrance porches are approximately 21' Or 3 steps above grade and meet riser and tread requirements. However, existing problems are as follows: (See Photograph #1) Stair handrails must be round and be 1~' to 1Y=' diameter. Stair handrails must extend one tread dimension plus 12' past the bottom of the stair and 12' past the top of the stair. Handrails must be 34' - 38' high. - Provide detachable warning at upper stair level. (as per Florida State Accessibility requirements). - Provide ADA signage identifying accessible entrance. 2. Re(3uired Entrance Ramp One (either south entrance) entrance must have a accessible ramp -- there is no ramped entrance to the building; Required Ramp: 1' rise in 12' maximum. 1~,4' to 1Y2' diameter handrails on each side at 34'-38' high. Handrails extend 12' beyond each end of ramp. ...Provide ADA signage identifying accessible entrance. BOYNTON BEACH HISTORIC SCHOOLS ADA/HANDICAPPED ACCESSIBILITY AND LIFE SAFETY ISSUES BUILDINGS AND SITE COMPLIANCE REVIEW PAGE 3 3. Reouired Vestibule Ramo ~. ~- One entrance vestibule must have a ramp to overcome the two (2) steps (located within ,~ ~ each of the two vestibules) or the porch/vestibule floor level must be raised (approximately ~' ~' 14') to the first floor 'level and have only one (1) ramp from exterior grade to the first floor "~ '~' ~- level (see Photograph #2). As per item ~2, all physical ramp.r:equirements pertain. ~__.3~ o~ ~ .... .~- ~7' Provide detectable warning at upper stair level (as per Fiodda State Accessibility ~' Requirements). · Provide ADA signage identifying accessible routes and rooms. 4. Main Cordd0r and Classroom Doors (Se® Photographs #4 and #5) The main corridors on both the first and Second floors are 12' wide and access to classrooms and offices are basically through 36' wide doors (32' is minimum ,,~ requirement). Most doors open into the corridor from the classrooms for proper exiting ~) and have ample wall area adjacent the 'pull' side of the door jamb - 18' clear width required on the door knob side. Doors must have lever type hardware in lieu of existing round door knobs. Existing doors, if less than 32' wide, are indicated on the floor plan. Provide ADA signage identifying accessible routes and rooms. 5. Stairs tO Media Center, Cafeteria-Kitchen, Etc. There are two central symmetrical stairs (4 dsers each) that lead to the lower level of spaces from the first floor. The stairs accommodate a 25' height difference and each lead to a pair of extedor exit doors. (See Photographs #6 and #7 and the first floor plan.) Problems:' The stair rails are at the wrong height. The stair rails do not extend 12' beyond the top of the stair and one tread plus 12' beyond the bottom of the stair (See Photograph #6). ~ ~ The exit doors are each 2'-6' wide with a removable mullion between, but must be replaced by a single 3'-0' exit door (See Photograph #7). Provide detectable warning at upper stair level (as per Florida-State Accessibility Requirements) BOYNTON BEACH HISTORIC SCHOOLS ADA/HANDICAPPED ACCESSIBILITY AND LIFE SAFETY ISSUES BUILDINGS AND SITE COMPLIANCE REVIEW PAGE 4 - Provide ADA signage indicating accessible routes. - Provide ADA signage to all accessible rooms. 6. Exit Doors into North INorthwest and Northeast) Stairways Pairs of exit doors from interior spaces into the north stairways are pairs of 2'-6' wide doors which must be replaced with single 3'-0' exit doors (see Photograph #8). This problem is the same on the lower floor level and the existing gymnatorium floor level above (2 pairs of doors on each level - see first and second floor plans). Provide ADA signage identifying accessible routes. 7A. Main Stairways (2) Problems: Stair rails are wrong acceptable height. Rails do not extend 12' beyond top of stair/landing and I tread plus 12' beyond bottom of stair/landing. - Adhere to stair 'nosing' requirements such as providing flush risers '-LF- or rounded nosings. - Stair rails must be 1~,4' to 1V2' diameter with no projections or interruptions (2' diameter existing) (see Photographs #9 and #10). - Provide detectable warning at upper level of stair (as per Florida Accessibility Requirements). - Provide visual and audible alarm. 7B. North {Northwest and Northeast) Exit Stairways (2) from Lower First Floor to Gymnatorium Level Problems: Similar to main stairways plus: - Handrail needed on both side of stairs, 1Y2' from walls min. ,~ ..... (see Photograph #10A). - Provide detectable warning at upper level of stair (as per Florida AcCessibility Requirements). BOYNTON BEACH HISTORIC SCHOOLS ADA/HANDICAPPED ACCESSIBILITY AND LIFE SAFETY ISSUES BUILDINGS AN;) SITE COMPLIANCE REVIEW-- PAGE 5 Provide ADA signage. Provide visual and audible alarm. 8. Toilet Room~ and Fixtures There are two main symmetrically located toilet rooms on each floor level. Boys are on~ the west and girls are on the east side. The total number of fixtures (water closets, lavatories, urinals and drinking fountains) must be in accordance with building/plumbing code requirements for the type of building occupancy. Problems: Entrances into the toilet rooms are not wide enough (min.. 2'-8" wide door opening'plus 18' side jamb). (See Photographs #11 and #12.) There must be one handicapped stall in each of the boys and girls toilet rooms which has a water closet and a lavatory within the stall. 5'-8' x 5'-8' are the min. stall dimensions. There are required fixture locations relative to walls and each other within the stall, and toilet accessory mounting height requirements must be met. Present fixture heights and fixture spacings are tight and incorrect to qualify for handicap accessibility. Mirrors and toilet accessories must also be mounted at ADA required heights. Presently they are not in compliance. (See F~, ~otographs #13 and #14.) ~ .~ Water coolers: Accessible water coolers must have the spout outlet "~ no more than 36' from the floor and have front or side mour~ted ~ ~ '--- controls (see Photograph #15). Existing water coolers do not meet ~- '~-~ ~ requirements. Provide ADA room signage. Provide visual and audible alarm. BOYNTON BEACH HISTORIC SCHOOLS ADA/HANDICAPPED ACCESSIBILITY AND LIFE SAFETY ISSUES BUILDINGS AND SITE COMPLIANCE REVIEW PAGE 6 9A. Gymnatorium The combination gymnasium and auditorium was originally entered by two ramped entrances from the main second floor corridor (presently boarded up). Ramps are too steep and have no railings (see Photograph #16). Accessible ramps would basically have to be twice as long as they now are to properly ~/'*"-- provide for the 23' height change. - Existing seating for 221~ is provided in perimeter e!evated rows on three sides but there are no available seating locations presently ~or handicapped -- no seating is located directly on the gymnatorium floor level (see photographs #17, #18 and #19). 9B. Stage Area The stage is 41' above the gymnatodum floor and is accessible by only two side stairways: Problems: ~,~L-,~ Stairs have no railings. Lack of accessible ramp or lift from gymnatorium to stage area. (See Photographs #20 and #21.) r) Provide ADA signage. ~ Provide visual and audible alarms. 10. Vertical Accessibility/Elevator There is no elevator in the existing building to serve the four basic floor levels in the building: Floor Levels: ,.~'~._~: First Floor North central first floor (which is 25±' lower than the first floor) c, Second Floor d. North central second floor (which is 23-~:' lower than the second floor) Provide ADA signage. BOYNTON BEACH HISTORIC SCHOOLS ADA/HANDICAPPED ACCESSIBILITY AND LIFE SAFETY ISSUES BUILDINGS AND SITE COMPLIANCE REVIEW PAGE 7 As noted in 9B, there also is the stage level which is 41' higher than the lower second floor (gymnatorium) level. The following is an example of providing accessibility to the four floor levels. Elevator: EXAMPLE A. In order to provide access to each of the four levels, an elevator would have to be placed centrally within the building located north of the main east/west corridor for first and second level entry and from the north side. for lower first and lower second level entry. Thus, the elevator would have entrances on both side of the cab (north and south) giving access to all four levels (see floor plans HS-1 and HS-2 for example). · B. An elevator could also be centrally located adjacent the main corridor to serve only the main first and second floor levels. With this scenario, we will still need access to .the lower second floor (gymnatorium level) and lower'first floor level via ramps. This is a more complex solution since.approximately 24' of ramp length is required (1:12 slope) to access the lower first and second floors. In both scenarios, the elevator-will be required to meet all ADA requirements in regard to cab size, signage,/braille, audio, etc. BOYNTON BEACH HISTORIC SCHOOLS ADA/HANDICAPPED ACCESSIBILITY AND LIFE SAFETY ISSUES BUILDINGS AND SITE COMPLIANCE REVIEW PAGE 19 Cost Imr)lementation Considerations for Basic ADA/Handicar)r)ed and Life Safety Item~ The following cost considerations are concept estimates which are provided only as an idea of cost implementation considerations relative to ADA/handicap and life safety items.

EXPLANATION: Studies and plans for Downtown Development do not support the renovation/remodeling of this structure for City uses. The best use of this site is possibly for expanded parking and green areas to support the City Hall Complex, the new Cultural Centre, and an expanded Civic Center. PROGRAM IMPACT: The High School has a total area under roof of approximately 28,000 squ~e feet. The building is presently being used for the following purposes: 1. Temporary Offices for F'mance during IAQ Clean-up. 2. Warehouse Storage of files and records. 3. Recreation Storage 4. Police Storage 5. ARC (The Association for Retarded Citizens) 6. Dick Webber Center 7. Planning & Zoning and Code Enforcement Files/Records for scanning. , The building is in "useable" condition having the electrical, plumbing, and HVAC systems all working and in fair physical shape as far as the walls, floors, doors, ceilings, etc. This is no.__~t to say it meets present Building, Occupancy or Life/Safety Codes or does not need major repairs. As noted in previous reports the building is structurally sound. The greatest present problem the demolition of this building would cause, would be the loss of the storage areas. Alternate space would i need to be built or leased before demolition could occur. This building was also planned for use to store the Cultural Contre's traveling , display ~torage crates and displays waiting to be assembled. FIscAL IMPACT: Estimated cost for demolition is approximately $70,000 including abatement requirements. ALTERNATIVES: 1. Leave as is and repair as breakdowns occur with the realization it does not meet Access and Building Codes and is a high maintenance structure. 2. Complete minimum repairs to the roofing and HVAC and Termite Treatment at a cost of approximately $300,000. 3. Do minimum Code requirements and repairs at a cost of approximately $1,306,404. 4. Complete Historical Restoration. This making no major changes to 'the present layout. The cost would be approximately $3,500,00 to $5,000,000.

Bingham, Fire Chief SUBJ: Summary of Fire and Life Safety Requirements Old High School, 101 East Ocean Drive DATE: September 11, 1997 Life Safety requirements for the Old High School cannot be accurately determined until a decision is made regarding the specific use of the building. Once the occupancy is determined, appropriate Life Safety Codes can be identified and required. Therefore, the following reflects generic concerns that have previously been addressed and which would apply regardless of the classification. Section 1-8.3 of the Life Safety Code addresses Changes of Occupancy, and states that in any building or structure, whether necessitating a physical alteration or not, a change from one occupancy classification to another, or from one occupancy sub-classification to another sub-classification of the same occupancy, shall be permitted only if such building or structure conforms with the requirements of this Code applying to new construction for the proposed new use, as defined in the Life Safety Code 101:1-7.4. Whether classified under Existing, Assembly Occupancies, Educational, or Business Occupancies, specific applicable areas of concern, in accordance with the Life Safety Code include: travel distance to exits; lack of enclosed stairwells, stair-tower and hallway doors, and a questionable fire protection alarm system. According to the Life Safety Code, the "authority having jurisdiction" has the latitude to make exceptions with ~ of the above, providing that an automatic sprinkler system is provided throughout the building. Based on a previous examination of this building, it was determined that most major systems would require renovation. Many of the problems are related to building (structural), electrical, and plumbing, and therefore would be better addressed through the Building and Code Compliance Departments. This letter only reflects a summary. The specific Codes and other documentation are available upon your request. We will also be available to discuss issues of Fire and Life Safety as they relate to this building. Obviously, our pdmary concern is the safety of anyone who may occupy this building for any reason. Post-~ Fax Note__~ Attachment E BOYNTON BEACH FIRE RESCUE DEPARTMENT TO: Mr. Kurt Bressner, City Manager ,/~ FROM: William L. Bingham, Fire Chief ,,-~.~ .. SUBJECT: Mangrove Park School (Old High School) 125 East Ocean Avenue DATE: October 24, 2000 The Old High School is currently being used for active storage and has been for a number of years, in July 1999 after several inspections by both the Building and Fire rescue Departments, the building was red-tagged as too hazardous for occupation. There is no active fire protection system or adequate life safety features in the building. It was determined to be infested with rats, fleas, and other "critters", and it was deemed an additional liability for the City to occupy the building in light of homeless people that, on occasion, were known to occupy areas in and around the building. A complete file of all inspections and related documents is available upon request. This file includes pictures and minimum, albeit costly, upgrades that would be necessary for any habitation of the building. The Fire Rescue Department position is that limited storage has been allowed due to the lack of storage space available to the City. We recommend that no additional storage be placed in the building and that efforts be made to eliminate existing storage. The building should not be occupied under any circumstances,. except for the minimal time needed to retdeve stored materials. I hope that this clarifies concerns discussed at the EXCL meeting of Monday, October 23, 2000. As stated, this is a synopsis of along-standing issue and additional information is available upon request. cc. Steve Gale, Fire Marshal .. FIRE & LIFE SAFETY DIVISION' Memorandum No. 99-331 TO: William L.

I will be affixing red tags to entrance doors prohibiting admittance. Attachments FIRE & LIFE SAFETY DIVISION Memorandum No. 99-370 TO: Chief William L. Bingham FROM: Steve Gale, Fire Marshal ~ DATE: November 16, 1999 SUBJECT: Old High School The Old High School would require the following minimum upgrades: 1. American Disability Act requirements including an elevator, 2. Fire Alarm System (detection and notification). 3. Emergency and Exit lighting systems. 4. Electrical capacity of the building is inadequate and needs extensive upgrades. 5. Termite damage structural survey and asbestos/lead paint surveys. 6. Tent extermination of entire building to kill fleas and rats. 7. Fire extinguishers in all areas. 8. Fire sprinkler system. 9. Stairwells need to be protected/enclosed and wire mesh over windows needs to be removed. The type of occupancy will also determine more specific Fire and Life Safety requirements. NFPA 914 Fire Protection in Historic Structures provides guidelines and alternatives but the 9 items I listed above are standards not generally open to exception. Many problems need to be addressed by the appropriate Building Department Officials but all systems appear to require major renovation. I am available for any questions and can provide documentation as necessary. cc: file Attachment F DEPARTMENT OF DEVELOPMENT BUILDING DIVISION MEMORANDUM NO, 01-210 TO: Quintus Greene, Director of Develop. ment FROM: Don Johnson, Building Official DATE: October 8, 2001 SUBJECT: DEMOLITION-Old High School On September 7, 2001 I accompanied an inspection team through the old high school at 125 East Ocean Avenue. Chuck Magazine, Risk Manager, assembled this team. The City's team consisted of: Steve Gale, Fire Marshall; Joe Patrick, Plumbing & Mechanical Inspector; and myself. Individuals representing the committee that wishes to save the old high school were Rick Gonzalez and Darrin Engel of REG, Inc. Architects, and Dale Hedrick of Hedrick Brothers, General Contractor. Mr. Rick infante of Golder Associates was the safety c°nsultant that provided the respirators and safety clothing. The City staff's purpose was to answer questions that the architect and general contractor still had concerning the deterioration and safety concerns during the inspection. They were provided previous reports that were written by City staff. Questions were asked of staff concerning proper tenant separation, deterioration of the building, and asbestos abatement. After the inspection I inquired of the architect what he felt the cost would be to rehabilitate the building'. His estimate was aPproximately between 3.5 and 4 million dollars.

OCEAN AVENUE Per your request of April 3,2001, Larry Buchanan' and I conducted a cursory inspection of the above referenced building to ascertain the integrity of the structure. My £mdings revealed the following. Exterior of buildin~ 1. The exterior of the building has many openings in the walls, mound windows, under doors and through the roof and floor where insects, rodents and rain can enter the building. Access to the roof was not available; however, due to stains on the ceilings, roof members, walls and floors, it was evident that the roof membrane is in need of major repair or reroofing. 2. Settlement cracks occur around the entire exterior of the building. 3. Birds are entering the building through broken windows and openings in the structure, dropping feces and building nests within the structure. 4. First floor door on northwest comer of building has deteriorated from water and termite damage. 5. Trees are growing out offagade of building. 6. - The door sill on the door facing north into first floor corridor has deteriorated and is allowing insects and rodents to enter the building. 7. Door sill and door frame on southwest door of building have deteriorated due to water and termite damage. 8. Handrail missing from steps at southwest comer of building. 9. Facade over both doors facing south has water intrusion into the building through cracks in the faCade and stucco. 10. Door and frame area facing southeast has had termite and water damage, completely destroying the entire door frame. 11. Water is entering the structure at the southeast comer of building where lightning previously struck the parapet wall, knocking out a large area of clay brick. 12. Windows and doors around the entire building need to be caulked and sealed. 13. Pump house wall sheathing has deteriorated and is in need of repair. 14. Frames and door sills at northeast entrance area have deteriorated due to termite and water damage. Building Division Memo 01-060 to Nancy Byrne RE: Old Boynton Beach High School April 4, 2001 Page Two 15. Door at northeast comer to locker room has deteriorated and has 3 to 4 inch gap at the base of the door. 16. Drip edge flashing at northeast comer of building is loose and not secure, allowing rain to enter the building. 17. Can wash area at northeast comer of building is missing a backflow preventer on the hose bib. Interior ofbuildin~ - 1st floor 1. There are numerous holes in walls, ceilings, floors and around windows throughout the entire interior area of the first floor, allowing insects, rodents and rain to enter the building. 2. In the cafeteria area, the 'floor has deflection and openings from deterioration due to water and termite damage. 3. Exit stairway blocked with storage. This is a means of egress from the second floor. 4. Hose bib in kitchen area needs back flow preventer. 5. Interior wall in kitchen and door frame show evidence of termites and wall has deflected. 6. Girls' restroom on east end of first floor has water damage to the ceiling that is caused by either leaky pipes above or roof water damage. A portion of the Stucco ceiling has fallen and the wooden floor joists that are visible show signs of termite damage. Sinks and toilets have had their plumbing traps dry up, allowing sewer gas to enter the building. For this structure - to become operational again, many of the plumbing fixtures would have to be replaced. 7. Southeast classroom of first floor shows sign of water and termite damage on walls, ceilings and floors. 8. Screen walls have been constructed at southeast and southwest entrances without benefit of permits and inspections. 9. Classrooms 102 and 103 show signs of water and termite damage on walls, ceiling and floors. 10. In the office area of the first floor, it was observed that there is an existing ceiling above the newer acoustical lay-in =odd ceiling. This ceiling material appears to contain asbestos. It is also a possibility that the floor tile contains asbestos. This possibility may also exist throughout the entire building. 11.

Outlets in classrooms need to have GFI outlets. The egress lighting and emergency exit lighting do not conform to the 1997 Standard Building Code, Section 1016. In conclusion, a licensed structural engineer needs to evaluate the structural integrity of this building as it has a major infestation of termites and has received ten-nite and water damage. I would recommend that an asbestos and lead paint Survey be performed prior to allowing occupancy of this building. Licensed contractors would have to file applications, Secure permits and receive applicable inspections for electrical, plumbing, mechanical and building repairs of this structure once the evaluation has been conducted and determined that the structure is worth saving. The roof and many rooms of this building could not be inspected due to lack of accessibility. Currently, this building is in Violation of Section 3401.6 of the 1997 Standard Building Code, which states "All buildings, structures, electrical, gas, mechanical and plumbing systems, both existing and new, and all parts thereof, shall be maintained in a safe and sanitary condition. All devices or safeguards which are required by the technical codes when constructed, altered, or repaired, shall be maintained in good working order. The owner, or his designated agent, shall be responsible for the maintenance of buildings, structures, electrical, gas, mechanical and plumbing systems."

EXPLANATION: The Florida statutes allow local communities to authorize up an additional $25,000 property tax assessment exemption (homestead exemption) for income eligible senior citizens. Senior citizens are defmed as permanent residents and property owners, who have attained the age of 65 and have a household income of $20,000 adjusted for inflation. The current adjusted household income is $21,599. The Palm Beach County Budget Office has informed staff the deadline to submit the Resolution to the County is December 1, 2003 for the 2004 tax year. Therefore it appears we will have to wait until the 2005 tax year to offer the exemption. Staff will work on the fmancial impact to the City. Based on the income level of $21,599 we may have more homes qualify than staff originally thought. The income level for the fire assessment exemption is under $10,000. PROGRAM IMPACT: To be determined. The Staff will review the impact of the County's program and will obtain information from them as to the exact number of households within the corporate limits that will qualify. FISCAL IMPACT: To be determined from the above data and based on the level of exemption to be considered by the City Commission. The City Commission may approve up to a $25,000 assessment exemption over and above the base $25,000 regular homestead exemption. ALTERNATIVES: The City Commission is exploring this matter. No final decision will be made until the fiscal impact analysis is completed.

EXPLANATION: The purpose of this ordinance is to establish the historic downtown core area of the City of Boynton Beach as an urban Central Business District pursuant to the provisions of Chapter 28-24 of the Florida · Administrative Code. The ordinance has been modified to reflect the requirements for approval by the Florida Department of Community Affairs (DCA) in its letter of determination of consistency with this Chapter. PROGRAM IMPACT: The effect of establishing the downtown core area as an Urban Central Business District is to raise the threshold required for any one development project in the area to become a Development of Regional Impact (DRD 50 percent, from 300,000 square feet to 450,000 square feet. This would help to balance downtown development by improving the ability of the city to attract major commercial, retail and office employers to compliment the new residentially based mixed-use development in the area. This ordinance will not alter the existing land use or zoning for any downtown property nor will it impact any adjacent residential areas. FISCAL IMPACT: Attracting major commercial, retail and office employers to the downtown area is important to the city's fiscal well being, particularly in light of the departure of Motorola which, until recently, was the city's second largest property tax payer. ALTERNATIVES: Not approving this ordinance will limit the ability of the city's downtown area to attract new non-residential~-use development. ~at~en~ ~I~'ad's Sighature City Manager's Signature Department of Development City Attorney / Finance / Human Resources S:~BULLETIN~ORMS~,AGENDA ITEM REQUEST FORM.DOC ORDINANCE NO. 03-OSq AN ORDINANCE OF THE CItY OF BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA ESTABLISHING A URBAN CENTRAL BUSINESS DISTRICT PURSUANT TO SECTION 380.062(2)(e), FLORIDA STATUTES; SETTING FORTH THE BOUNDARIES OF THE URBAN CENTRAL BUSINESS DISTRICT; ESTABLISHING GUIDELINES AND STANDARDS WHICH SHALL BE APPLICABLE TO DEVELOPMENTS WITHIN THE URBAN CENTRAL BUSINESS DISTRICT; PROVIDING FOR TRANSMISSION TO THE DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNITY AFFAIRS; PROVIDING FOR CONFLICTS, SEVERABILITY, CODIFICATION, AND AN EFFECTIVE DATE.- WltEREAS, Section 380.06(2)(e), Florida Statutes, provides that certain of-Regional Impact (DRI) guidelines and standards shall be increased in areas by local governments as Urban Central Business Districts within jurisdictions Comprehensive Plans have been found to be in compliance with PART II, Chapter 163, Florida Statues; and WltEREEAS, by Ordinance 89-38, adopted November 7, 1989, the City's Plan pursuant to Part II, Chapter 163, Florida Statutes, was adopted and it found to be in compliance by the State of Florida on February 8, 1991.

The Depa~nent notes that the large vegetated area adjoining the lntracoastal Waterway containing a stormwater retention area and the mangrove area designated "Conservation Overlay," do not conform to the development requirements of an Urban Central Business District. Therefore, these areas should be excluded from the UCBD designation. The Department recognizes the City's intent in the transfer of density. However, the exclusion of these areas from the UCBD should not affect the City's redevelopment initiatives. With this modification, the Department will consider the proposed ordinance to be consistent with the requirements for Urban Central Business District designation pursuant to Section 380.06(2)(e), Florida Statutes and Rule 28-24.014(10), Florida Administrative Code (F.A.C.). Pursuant to Rule 28-24.014(10), F.A.C., the guidelines and standards for developments within the designated UCBD shall take effect upon the adoption of the ordinance by the City. The City must subsequently adopt the UCBD ordinance by an amendment to the Comprehensive Plan at the next opportunity for amendment. The following guidelines and standards shall apply to developments within the designated UCBD: 1. For residential, hotel, motel, office or retail developments, the applicable guidelines and standards shall increase by 50 percent. 2. The applicable multi-use guidelines and standards shall increase by 100 percent, provided that one land use of the multi-use development is residential, and that residential development amounts to not less than 35 percent of the City's applicable residential threshold. 3. If any portion of a proposed development is located outside the delineated Urban Central Business District, the increased guidelines and standards of Rule 28o24.014(10), F.A.C., shall not apply.

EXPLANATION: PROJECT: PACKAGING CONCEPTS (ABAN 02-001) QUANTUM PARK LOT #47-B OWNER:: City Initiated LOCATION: Lot 47-B Quantum Park DESCRIPTION: Ordinance No. 02-022 was adopted on June 4, 2002 to abandon a 10-foot wide water main easement, to accommodate the major site plan modification of the Packaging Concepts office/warehouse building. Permits for this project were never pulled thereby allowing the approval to expire. As the easement is currently occupied by a utility line on Lot 47-B of Quantum Park, which will no longer have an approval for relocation, the easement should be preserved.

CITY OF BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA Mayor Vice Mayor Commissioner Commissioner ;T: Commissioner City Clerk S:\CA\Ordinances~ign Heights 12-03.doc 7 of 7 PLANNING AND ZONING MEMORANDUM NO. 03..246 TO: Community Redevelopment Agency and Planning & Development Board FROM: Michael Rumpf, Director of Planning & Zoning DATE: October 8~ 2003 SUBJECT: Sign Code Review (CDRV 03-004) Heights and Definitions BACKGROUND The Planning & Zoning Division has been reviewing a number of new site plans and modifications to site plans recently and is continuously required to defend the City's position relative to signage, which is not 'supported by code. The current Land Development Regulations. regarding commercial and industrial signage allows fi~eestanding pole, pylon and monument signs up to 20 feet in height. Staff has been 'sUCCessful in negotiating with developers fOr monument sign.n (ground signs) at a greatly reduced height from the maximum height allowed bY code, typically in the-range of 8 to12 feet, since signs of this height are more in keeping with the scale of the City as a whole and more specifically the project itself. Increasingly, developers of smaller sites have been more resistant to Staff's overtures, "'" ' instead looking to increase their visibility and marketability by proposing pylon signs at the maximum 20-foot limit. Additionally, several of the sites, due- to being at an intersection of two streets, would be allowed two 'such signs. Staff is' in the midst, of a complete sign code review and rewrite, timed with the greater . Land Development Regulations re-write, that is proPOsed to address this and many other issues. HOwever, staff is apprOximately six ~months r~moved from proposing new. 'language in Ordinance form. In order to prOvide staff the tools, necessary to guide --~. development apprOpriately and in keeping'with Boynton's character,:, staff, is requesting an immediate code amendment to the section(s) of the sign code regul'atin.' g freestan~g signs. ANA!?'YSIS -Previously, staff'i:ondUcted research and' reviewed.the sign codes for Unincorporated' .,. Palm- Beach .County~ Boca Raton, Delray Beach and. Oreenacres as comparisons~ This ..'~: comparison indicated a wide range.of regulations,, restricting sign.heights anywhere ~om -',' ' .-.. 5-feet to 30-feet for. freestan~g sign~, .... .-:. Within the last few years, staff, has attempted to. influence the'use of monument., 'signs as opposed to pole Signs .or pylon signs, as' well as reduce, the height and scale, of these tyPes of signs. Staff has attempted to create an improved community standard to .guide development ~for the betterment of our residents and visitors alike. · During this time, staff has been fairly successful in influencing the. sign styles and sizes that have begun to grace our city. Several office complexes such as the Corrina Collin Center and the Medical Arts Professional Center Were approved with small monument signs (6-feet and under). Several other single tenant commercial projects such as. ._ Victoria's Closet; Krispy .Kreme, Mobil on the Run and Lighthouse Academy were approved with 8-foot' tall monument signs. Even Staples was approved with a 7~fo°t high monument sign. 'Lastly, the Woolbdght Plaza project, which included a four (4) story office.building and a 'Walgreens store, with attached retail bays, was approved (per conditions) with two (2) 12-foot tall monument signs. These types of app~ovals..have gone a long wayto improve the visual image of the city. However, by code,~ll of the examples noted above could have had a 20-foot tall pylon sign in front of their respective businesses. Staff has been very successful in negotiating · - on the City's behalf, and will continue to do so. These proposed amendments are needed to codify regulations that represent the'City's current image and vision. CONCLUSIONS/RECO~ATIONS Understanding that a city cannot 'have one regulation that' fits all circumstances, staff would like to propose a'I/tulti-faceted ai~proach to freestanding signs: · Eliminate' pylon. sign as an allowable sign type in the sign code.
