uses and accommodates and encourages a mixture of residential, office, retail,
recreational, and other miscellaneous uses, which may be arranged either vertically or
horizontally on assembled parcels along major arterials outside of the downtown
redevelopment district. All development and redevelopment shall be guided by an
approved plan through the use of the SMU master plan, planned unit development,
conditional use, or other site plan review processes.
The objectives of the Suburban Mixed Use zoning district is as follows:
a. Support and enhance development and redevelopment efforts in
suburban areas outside of the downtown redevelopment area;
b. Create major new mixed-use areas in planned locations with
appropriate densities, heights, and mixtures of uses;
c. Create attractive pedestrian environments through appropriate
separation from and design of vehicular circulation areas;
d. Provide public plazas and gathering places that are both well-
designed and integrated into the overall design of the development;
e. Allow flexibility in architectural design and building bulk; while
maximizing compatibility and harmony with adjoining development;
f. Create higher quality environments for residents, businesses,
employees, and visitors; and
g. Encourage innovative design that achieves vertical and horizontal
integration of uses.
2. SMU - Suburban Mixed-Use Zoning District.
a. In order to complement the redevelopment and envisioned
growth of the suburban area, the SMU zoning district shall only be applied to lands
west of 1-95 classified as Development of Regional Impact (DRI) or other land use
classifications subsequently established on the Future Land Use Map.
b. The SMU district is appropriate for low- to mid-rise
developments that provide for medium density residential uses. The district allows a
maximum height of fifty-five (55) feet and a residential density of 20 dwelling units
per acre for mixed-use projects. Building heights between 55 feet and up to 75 feet to
the peak of the structure or any architectural details may be allowed only for interior
buildings (those buildings separated from property line by another project building or
use), if approved as a conditional use. The review of SMU applications will
emphasize aesthetics and design quality, and physical compatibility with adjacent
land uses. All new suburban mixed-use developments within this district shall front
on a major arterial and contain a mixture of retail commercial, office and residential
uses.

base flood elevation as established by FEMA, whichever is highest, to peak of the
structure, including any architectural details, rooftop equipment, stairwells, elevator
shafts, etc.
b. Height Setback Envelope: minimum building setbacks based on
building heights. The height setback envelope is applicable where the SMU
development is adjacent to a developed single-family residential zoning district. This
minimum setback shall be 3 times the building height for any multi-family or non-
residential structure. The setback shall be measured from the common boundary of
the SMU and the single-family residential zoning district or the midpoint of any
intervening right-of-way.
5. Mixed Uses. Buildings containing residential and non-residential uses
are encouraged within the SMU zoning district and subject to the same development
standards as "all other uses". Residential uses within mixed-use structures, with the
exception of designated live/work units, are encouraged not to be located on the
ground floor, which shall be reserved for nonresidential uses.
Nonresidential uses within mixed residential/nonresidential structures shall be
evaluated for their compatibility with residential uses located on upper floors, and
shall demonstrate compatibility based upon use-type, construction materials, floor
plan and site layout, and other reasonable factors as determined appropriate given the
type of use.

right-of-way of arterial roadways shall include a landscaped
berm.
7. Parking Requirements. Parking requirements for the SMU zoning
district shall be set forth by Chapter 2, Section 1 IH, of the Boynton Beach Land
Development Code.
a. Parking for mixed-use developments may utilize shared parking
ratios, consistent with those prepared by ULI- the Urban Land Institute. Supporting
documentation from this standard book shall be presented with a shared parking
analysis at the time of technical site plan approval.
b. Freestanding parking garages as part of a multi-family residential
or mixed-use development are permitted within the SMU Zone. Within the SMU
Zone, freestanding parking garages shall not have direct frontage on major roadways
unless a portion of the garage abutting said streets contains storefronts, restaurants or
other permitted nonresidential uses, or residential uses on the first floor. The intent is
to attempt, where possible, to border or wrap the garage in storefronts and other
permitted habitable floor area so as to disguise the garage and create continuity in
street-level activity by maintaining interest for pedestrians and passing automobile
traffic. Principal structures that include parking garages shall be designed to blend the
architecture of the garage with the remainder of the structure or adjacent buildings.
Portions of freestanding parking garages that are not screened with habitable space
and are in view from the general public shall utilize design measures such as shutters,
planter boxes, tall landscaping, etc. to soften their impact.
c. Parking garages that are incorporated into the same structure as a
principal building, including structures providing parking on lower floors and
habitable space on upper floors, are permitted within the SMU Zone. Understory
parking is permitted throughout the SMU Zone for multiple-floor buildings. Such
parking areas shall be screened from view by landscaping, buildings, and/or
architecturally articulated faqade designed to screen the parking area.
d. In order to increase the efficiency of parking provision and
vehicle circulation, parking facilities shall be interconnected whenever possible.
8. Dumpster Location. Dumpsters shall be adequately screened from view
in accordance with the provisions of the Land Development Regulations, or
compatible with the surrounding environment if located out of view from the general
public.

arterials, except as otherwise approved within a master signage program for the SMU
development project.
10. Minimum Project Size. A minimum of 10 acres shall be required for
any project developed under the provisions of the SMU regulations.
11. Master Plans for Phased Projects. The procedures for zoning of land to
SMU district shall be the same as for planned zoning districts. To promote and
encourage development in this form where uses may be integrated horizontally and
vertically within structures as coordinated units, a SMU master plan, including multi-
year phases, shall be submitted and reviewed for approval at the time of rezoning to
SMU.
a. In addition to the information required for application for zoning
