of Recreation and Open Space Element
The capital improvements element, as stipulated by 9163.3177(3) of Florida
Statutes (F.5.), is required to show the financial feasibility of providing public
facilities at the adopted levels of service outlined in other elements of the
Comprehensive Plan, and to provide a short-term (five-year) capital
improvements schedule for the provision of those facilities and services to ensure
their availability concurrent with development.
The City of Boynton Beach Capital Improvement Element was originated in 1989.
The element was amended following the Evaluation and Appraisal Report in
2000, and again in 2001 in conjunction with the adoption of the Public School
Facilities Element. The Capital Improvements Schedule developed in 1989 was
placed in the Element's Support Document but never adopted into the
Comprehensive Plan, nor was it updated at the time of the 2000 EAR-based
amendments.
Pursuant to 9163.3177(3)(b)1 (F.5.), the capital improvements element must be
reviewed and updated on an annual basis and modified as necessary to maintain
a financially feasible 5-year schedule of capital improvements. The Capital
Improvement Plan that the City adopts annually as part of the budget process
falls short of meeting all requirements for a capital improvements schedule as
listed in 9163.3177(3) F. S..
To amend this deficiency and address other issues identified in the Evaluation
and Appraisal Report adopted on February 2007, the City is submitting the 2007
update of the Capital Improvements Element with the Capital Improvement
Schedule. The methodology used in this update meets all state requirements,
including requirements regarding financial feasibility as enacted by the Florida
legislation in 2005 (9163.3164 and 9163.3177, F.5.).
The 2007 update of the Capital Improvement Element goes well beyond changes
recommended in the Evaluation and Appraisal Report. The element has been
revised and amended to better satisfy the state requirements contained in 9J-
5.016 and 9J-5.0055, Florida Administrative Code. As a result, some sections have
been streamlined as appropriate or removed as no longer applicable, and some
objectives and policies added or modified. Both the proposed and current
versions of the element are provided, the latter with marked changes and
comments.
The City is currently working on EAR-based amendments to all other elements
of the Comprehensive Plan, which will be submitted to the Department in the
first quarter of 2008. Extensive revisions will be proposed to some elements,
including Land Use, Coastal Management and Recreation and Open Space. In
the case of Utilities and Recreation and Open Space elements, proposed
amendments include changes in the Level of Service standards or definitions.
The proposed changes are reflected in the enclosed amendments to the Capital
Improvements Element, including analysis underlying the 5-year Capital
Improvements Schedule.
Pursuant to 9163.3180(6), F.5., each local government must submit annually, with
its updated capital improvements element, a summary of the de minimis impact
records. Since the City has not issued any de-minimis permits, no records are
provided.
As explained in the INTRODUCTION, the 2007 amendments to the Capital
Improvement Element are extensive and go well beyond changes recommended
in the Evaluation and Appraisal Report. The main objective of the rewrite was to
streamline and reorganize the objectives and policies to improve the element's
clarity and attain full compliance with the state requirements contained in 9J-
5.016 and 9J-5.0055, Florida Administrative Code (F.A.C).
Since the changes are so extensive, providing the current version with marked
changes is impractical. Instead, the following section provides a brief summary
of the proposed amendment.
1. The first three sections of the current Capital Improvement Element
pertain to Sanitary Sewer, Potable Water and Parks. The policies
contained in these sections are repeated from Utilities and Recreation and
Open Space elements. These sections would be removed; instead, the
proposed policies (9.1.4 and 9.1.5), in accordance with the overall goal for
the element, explicitly state that the capital improvement schedule must
recognize the policies of other comprehensive plan elements. The policies
concerning the level of service standards would be moved to the
proposed concurrency section (Objective 9.2).
2. In the current version, policies regarding public school facilities are placed
in the Public School Facilities section as well as in several other sections of
the element. As proposed, this section would be eliminated, and its
policies allocated to specific objectives according to their contents. Please
note that all proposed changes pertaining to public school facilities were
reviewed and endorsed by the Palm Beach County School district
planning staff.
3. The policies under the current Objective 9E.1 regarding the process to
update the Capital Improvement Element would be moved to the first
Objective (9.1) of the proposed version.
4. The proposed concurrency section (current Objective 9E.2) is expanded
with the inclusion of the concurrency system requirements as per 9J-
5.0055, F.A.C.. Moreover, a lengthy policy 9E.5.2 addressing the
availability of public facilities to serve developments for which
development orders were issued prior to the adoption of the plan would
be replaced by policies 9.2.11 and 9.2.12. The first policy would assert that
impacts of such developments were incorporated into the level of service
standards for all facilities for which such standards have been adopted
and are therefore reflected in the proposed Capital Improvement
Schedule. The second would further ensure that vested rights of any
development are not impaired pursuant to Florida Law.
5. The current Policy 9E.5.4 deals with the availability of public facilities to
serve development projects, referred to as "exempt", for which
development orders were issued prior to the effective date of the City
Concurrency Management Ordinance. The ordinance went into effect in
1990 and all such projects are vested in accordance with the original
approvals.
6. The current Objective 9E.3, pertaining to the private developers'
participation in facilities' improvement cost on proportionate share basis,
would be replaced by Objective 9.4. Additional policies within this
objective would list the possible form of contributions and list the three
programs through which the city currently collects the proportionate
share contributions from new developments - the Park Impact Fee, the
Water, Wastewater and Stormwater capital facility charges and the
Proportionate Fair-Share Mitigation of Transportation Impact Program.
7. The current Objective 9.E.4, pertaining to the City's capital program's
revenues, would be replaced by Objective 9.4. The new Policy 9.3.2
commits the City to maintaining the financial feasibility of the Capital
Improvement Schedule as per new state requirement, defined in Section
163.3164, F.5.
The copy of the current Capital Improvement Element is attached.

The 2007 Boynton Beach Capital Improvements Schedule (CIS) covers a short term, 5-
year planning period. The City has not identified any deficiencies requiring an adoption
of a long-term concurrency management system pursuant to 9163.3180(9), F .s., and thus
does not need to extend its CIS past the short-term planning horizon.
Tables A and B on the following page contain population projections for the City and the
City's water service area. The projections for the City come from two sources: Palm
Beach County Planning Division and the Metropolitan Center of the Florida
International University. The Palm Beach County arrives at the municipal projection
figures by disaggregating county-level forecasts produced by the Bureau of Economic
and Business Analysis of the University of Florida. The Metropolitan Center projections,
produced in June of 2006, include low, medium and high scenarios. As shown in Table
A, 2010 and 2015 projections by county are very close to the Metropolitan Center high
scenario City's figures, not unexpectedly since the latter are housing unit-based and
therefore derived with the use of similar methodology.
In 2007 Boynton Beach population fell by 0.3%. As other municipalities in the Palm
Beach county either lost population or experienced flat growth, and the Palm Beach
County School District student emollment fell for the second straight year, the small
population loss by the City appears to be a part of a general trend. Given the prolonged
downturn in residential markets and the overall economic climate, the population
growth over the next 5 years is likely to be weaker than previously thought, and the
population projections for this period have to be adjusted forward. For example, the
county projections show a population of 81,446 for 2012. With the 2007 figure of 66,872, a
population increase of 14,574 with the underlying annual growth of 4% over the next 5
years is simply not realistic. The Metropolitan low scenario (see Table B) implies a
slightly lower figure, but still well beyond what can be considered a reasonable estimate,
Since the 2000 Census, the City grew on average about 1.5% per year. Staff used this
annual increase to produce a short-term, 5-year adjustment to the population
projections, The adjustment generated a 2012 population projection of 71,934, likely a
"reasonable estimate". Long term projections may have to be adjusted as well.
The adjusted 5-year projections are used for the 1eve1-of-service standards calculations
for public facilities and services provided within city's boundaries. For water and
sanitary sewer facility planning within the entire service area, the City uses the
Metropolitan Center housing unit-based projections (which, in case of the total service
area, constitute a low scenario),

The current Boynton Beach Comprehensive Plan's Recreation and Open Space Element
determines the Level of Service standard for district parks to be 2.5 acres per 1000
residents. Both the neighborhood parks Level of Service and the recreation facilities
Level of Service standards are advisory. However, there is an inconsistency between the
Recreation and Open Space Element and Capital Improvement Element; the Policy
9C.2.1 of the latter, which has not been amended concurrently with the policies of the
Recreation and Open Space Element, implies that neighborhood parks' LOS of 2.5 acres
per 1000 persons is also an adopted, and not advisory, standard.
Furthermore, Policy 9C.3.5 of the Capital Improvement Element states that the City shall
continue to require a minimum of 6 acres per 1000 population for park dedication/ fee-
in-lieu. This policy has not been amended concurrently with the City's Land
Development Regulations. In 2002, the City changed the methodology of impact fee
imposition from one based on land dedication to one based on an impact fee solely
dependent on the type of residential development.
In 2004 the City contracted with a consultant to develop a Parks and Recreation Strategic
Plan for the City of Boynton Beach and to revise the Comprehensive Plan element based
on the adopted Strategic Plan, the Conceptual Parks and Recreation System Map and
narrative and Implementation Strategies. A new draft Recreation and Open Space
Element was adopted by the Commission on April 18, 2006, as a part of the Strategic
Plan. It will undergo a final review as a part of the EAR-based amendment process,
As per the Strategic Plan and the draft Recreation and Open Space Element, the City's
proposed Level of Service Standard is 2.5 developed acres per 1,000 residents for all
parks. After an extensive analysis, the consultant concluded that this is an appropriate
and satisfactory level of services and the City Commission concurred.
At present, the City has 236.45 acres of parks in various categories as listed in Table C.
Table D indicates that the City's provision of developed parks is well above its adopted
level of service, and will continue to remain above the adopted LOS throughout the
next 5-year planning period. The level of 2.5 acres of developed parkland will be
maintained easily till 2020. By 2025, all population projections indicate that the adopted
standard and the actual provision will converge.
The implementation of the Capital Improvement Program will turn out major facility
upgrades and replacements on some 60 acres of existing parks; moreover, two new
parks - Nautica Sound and Winchester - will add 14 acres to the park inventory (the
development of the 15-acre Quantum Park is planned to begin in 2011/2012 fiscal year,
but is not factored-in for the projected 2011/2012 LOS provision). Even though the
impact of these improvements is not critical for maintaining the adopted level of service

(withdrawals of the acres to be improved from the inventory would not cause the ratio
to fall below the 2.5 level within the 5-year period), it will significantly enhance the
quality of life for the City's residents.
As explained above in the Population Projections section, staff lowered the projected
2011/2012 population figures, but the projected LOS would not fall below the adopted
LOS under any population growth scenario for the 5-year period.
The advisory Level of Service standards for recreational facilities are listed in Table E.
The standards were determined through the trend of use analysis for existing facilities
and the Park and Recreation Needs Assessment completed by a consultant in 2002,
The proposed new LOS is 100 gpcd, Recent analysis showed that the service provision
for the sanitary sewer has exceeded the adopted LOS 90 gpcd. There are several reasons
why the LOS of 90 gpcd is no longer achievable or realistic. The increased capacity
demand is partly due to a change in demographics (a higher percentage of families with
children) and partly to a growing percentage of commercial customers in the service
area. Commercial customers, especially restaurants, generate significant amounts of
sewage into the system (which, in the LOS calculation, is not offset by the increased
population count). The remaining increase is caused by groundwater infiltration and
inflow into the collection and conveyance system. The completion of the Inflow and
Infiltration control program by 2013 is important to the maintenance of the new LOS of
100 gpcd over the 5-year planning period.
The City of Boynton Beach uses a number of revenue sources to fund capital
improvements, including public service taxes, local option gas tax, bond proceeds,
impact fees, capital facilities charges, grants and others.
Specifically, capital improvements for non-enterprise facilities are financed through:
· Public Service (PS) Tax Refunding Debt Service Fund: accounts for the debt
service on the City's 1993 Public Service Tax Refunding Bonds (the 1993 bonds
refunded the City's Public Service Tax Bonds, Series 1986 and 1990). After the
appropriations for the debt service, the remaining funds are split between
General Fund and the Capital Improvements Fund (57% to CIF).
· Local Option Gas Tax Fund: created during the 1983-84 fiscal year as a result of
an Interlocal Agreement between the Palm Beach County and local
municipalities for the distribution of the gas tax revenue. As per the Agreement,
9-16
expenditures of this fund are to be used for road maintenance (from the part
transferred to General Fund), and public transit (from the part transferred to
Mass Transit Fund); the residual amount is transferred to Capital Improvements
Fund and used for road improvements.
· Bond proceeds: new revenue bond issue of $25,000,000 is planned for 2007/2008
fiscal year.
· Park and Recreation Facilities Fund: revenues are impact fee payments by
developers of projects with a residential component.
. Grants
Other funding sources may occasionally be used. Please note that no Capital
Improvement expenditures are funded from the General Fund.
The capital improvements for enterprise facilities are financed by:
· Revenue bond proceeds and other debt (state loans); debt service costs are borne
by system customers.
· Capital facilities charges from new connections to the water and wastewater
systems.
· Transfers from the operating budget
. Grants
The City provides solid waste collection service, the cost of which is covered by user
fees, Capital expenditures for vehicle replacements are not included in the City's CIP but
are a part of the Fleet Maintenance Plan, an internal service fund based on depreciation
write-offs. The City's solid waste disposal capacity is managed by the Solid Waste
Authority (SW A) of Palm. Beach County, As per the attached letter, SW A notified the
City that there is sufficient capacity to accommodate the solid waste disposal for the 5-
year planning period and beyond.
The Capital Improvement Schedule (CIS) must be financially feasible. The definition of
financial feasibility (Sec. 163.3164(32), FS,) stipulates that" Sufficient revenues are currently
available or will be available from committed funding sources for the first three (3) years, or will
be available from committed or planned funding sources for years 4 and 5, of a 5-year capital
improvement schedule". Planned revenue sources
· Utilities CIS: all funds can be defined as committed. The City Commission
approved Water, Sewer and Stormwater Rate Study and resulting increases in
9-17
rates and capital facilities charges (see Ordinance 07-023, attached), thus ensuring
revenues to pay debt service on the bond to be issued. The approved Rate Study
also factors in revenue requirements for debt service on the state revolving loan
planned for 2010/2011 and 2011/2012 fiscal years.
The projections for capital facilities charges are conservative. They are based on
the increased charges as well as an assumption of lower development activity
over the planning period.
· CIS for facilities financed by non-enterprise funds: all funds can be defined as
committed. The 2007/2008 Jevenue bond has been approved and all grants have
been effectively secured. FEMA grant approval letter has not yet been received
and the grant amount may fall some $500,000 short of the $1,775,000 request;
however, this adjustment would still leave the ending Capital Improvements
Fund balance the 2011/2012 fiscal year in the positive, indicating financial
feasibility of the 5-year Capital Improvements Schedule.
The current fiscal environment is unstable and there is a distinct possibility of a very
significant decline of the General Fund revenues within the period under consideration.
The operating budget shortfalls may necessitate increased PS tax transfers to the General
Fund, with the ensuing reduction of the Capital Improvement Fund's revenues and
significant changes in the Capital Improvements Schedule in the near feature.
Tables 1-7 on the following pages show historical trends and projections for the City's
revenues available for funding of general city projects (see Section C, Overview for the
Utilities Capital Improvement Schedule for enterprise funds data).

Raw Water Supply Capacity
The City will be actively engaged in diversifying it sources of water supply over
the next planning period. At present, the City is totally dependent upon the
surficial aquifer as a supply, but also has one Aquifer Storage and Recovery
(ASR) well in operation, which stores excess seasonal water in a deeper, confined
aquifer, for recovery during dry weather. The overall goal of the City's plan is to
significantly reduce dependence on the surficial aquifer during the dry season of
the year. Anticipating additional restrictions on the surficial aquifer, the City has
developed a Water Supply Plan that calls for the following actions:
1. Interconnecting the City's two wellfields (east and west) so as to
supplement the eastern wellfield with additional water from the west.
The withdrawal from the eastern field is limited due to its proximity to the
Atlantic Ocean.
2. Constructing up to 5 new Floridan aquifer supply wells.
3. Expanding the treatment facilities capacity and distribution system for
reuse water, which will offset existing demands on the surficial aquifer.
Water Treatment Capacity
Water treatment plant capacity is not a major issue at this time. The City has a
surplus of installed water treatment plant capacity at the East Water Treatment
Plant,; however, the actual ability to produce water is limited by the insufficient
volume of treatable water delivered to the two treatment plants, As stated in the
Potable Water section above, the issue is obtaining approval from the Water
Management District to withdraw and use the needed water, and constructing
the necessary transmission lines to deliver the water to the East Water Treatment
Plant. During the next planning period the City will re-design its West Water
Treatment Plant so that it can accept and treat brackish water from the Floridan
aquifer.
Level of Service Standard
The current LOS is 200 gpcd. However, the City shall continue to consider a
variety of options to implement potable water conservation strategies such as
variable rate structure, aquifer storage and recovery, education and reuse to
reduce per capita water consumption rates to at least 175 gpcd annual daily
average by 2017.
9-28
Treatment and Disposal Capacity
The south Central Regional Wastewater Treatment Plant, serving the cities of
Boynton Beach and Delray Beach, has approximately 25 percent of its installed
capacity in reserve for future growth, Both cities are co-owners of the facility,
and contribute equally to its capital needs. Although at this time a facility
expansion is not required, by 2013 the capacity required by the City of Boynton
Beach will exceed 50% of the overall treatment plant capacity. Before that occurs,
the cities will have to renegotiate the agreement as to the allocation of the
available reserve capacity in light of each city's growth needs. Both cities have
active Inflow and Infiltration control programs that have caused an average of
0.69 MGD reduction in flow to the treatment plant from 2005 to 2006.
This capacity issue has been identified as a major issue in the City's EAR., To
optimize its existing capacity, Boynton Beach anticipates spending over 11.5
million dollars over the next 3 years on inflow and infiltration control measures.
This program will focus on the older sections of the gravity sewer system, much
of which is located in the low-lying coastal zone.
Change in the Level of Service Standard
The proposed new LOS is 100 gpcd. Recent analysis showed that the service
provision for the sanitary sewer has exceeded the adopted LOS 90 gpcd. There
are several reasons why the LOS of 90 gpcd is no longer achievable or realistic.
The increased capacity demand is partly due to a change in demographics (a
higher percentage of families with children) and partly to a growing percentage
of commercial customers in the service area. Commercial customers, especially
restaurants, generate significant amounts of sewage into the system (which, in
the LOS calculation, is not offset by the increased population count). The
remaining increase is caused by groundwater infiltration and inflow into the
collection and conveyance system. The completion of the Inflow and Infiltration
control program by 2013 is important to the maintenance of the new LOS of 100
gpcd over the 5-year planning period,
The City maintains stormwater drainage plans for various stormwater basins to
identify and prioritize needs for expansion, replacement, and improvements to
the stormwater system. The planned stormwater improvements aim at
mitigating localized drainage problems which may impair access to properties,
9-29
or result in property damage during extreme events, and assure that all new
stormwater systems comply with best management practices.
Reconstructed roadways in redevelopment areas will include on-site stormwater
retention or detention facilities for water quality enhancement. Discharges of
freshwater into the estuarine environment will be minimized. Existing swale
drainage systems will be redeveloped so as to retain water and function as
originally intended. The following areas will receive these types of stormwater
upgrades by 2013.
1. SE 4th Street and SE Federal Highway project area
2. Central Seacrest Corridor area
3. RoIling Green area
Tables below are summarize information on selected water, wastewater and
stormwater projects included in the Capital Improvement Schedule. The project
number corresponds to its CIS number.
Project Name: Wellfield Interconnection; Project # 109
Project Location: From West Wellfield to East Wellfield (see Map A)
Project Description: This project involves constructing approximately 7 miles of
large diameter water main from the western boundary to the eastern boundary
of our service area.
Project JUstification: It will allow the City to utilize water from the western well
field at both treatment plants, and reduce long-term demands at the eastern
wellfield. The eastern field is limited due to its proximity to the Atlantic Ocean.

Project Name: Construction of up to 5 new Floridan aquifer supply wells;
Project # 110
Project Location: Western portion of service area (see Map B)
Project Description: The City is planning to construct up to 5 new Floridan
aquifer supply wells in the western portion of its service area, so as to extract a
potential 10-12 MGD of brackish water from the Floridan aquifer, for treatment
at the West Water Treatment Plant. This project will include constructing the
necessary pipelines to connect the new wells to the Treatment Plant site, and also
construct a required monitoring well.
Project Justification: The Floridan aquifer is a confined aquifer, and although
brackish in nature, it is not impacted by droughts increasing demands on the
surficial aquifer system. The added capacity afforded by these wells will be
necessary to meet build out demands. This new Source of supply will require
modifications to the West Treatment Plant, in order to successfully treat the
higher salinity water found in the Floridan aquifer.

Project Name: Inflow and Infiltration control; Projects # 41 (design) and 56 &57
(construction)
Project Location: Eastern portion of service area (see Map C)
Project Description: This program will focus on the older sections of the gravity
sewer system, much of which occurs in the low-lying coastal zone. As in other
areas with high groundwater elevations, significant quantities of water can seep
into the gravity sewer system through cracks in the piping and manholes. The
City is commencing the second phase of a multi-phase project to identify and
repair those leaks. The project activities include televising and inspecting
manholes and sewer lines, then re-lining or replacing those with noticeable
infiltration problems.
Project Justification: Infiltration and inflow from groundwater sources add
additional flow to the treatment plant, increase operating costs, and waste a
valuable groundwater resource. Eliminating infiltration and inflow will extend
the treatment capacity at the regional wastewater facility, and may eliminate the
need for future expansions. (UE Db). 3A.3)

Ordinance 07-023, revising the rate schedule for potable water and wastewater,
as well as capital facilities charges, is attached. The new rate schedule reflects the
determination that the revenue requirements for the potable water, wastewater
and stormwater will increase 6.5% for the fiscal year 2007/2008, and then
annually 5.5% through 2011/2012, the last fiscal year in the 5-year planning
period. The Water, Sewer and Stormwater Rate Study, with the revenue needs
analysis which provided the basis for rate revision, can be furnished upon
request.

Ordinance No. 01-61
Objective 9C.3 The City shall increase the proportion of residential developments that
provide private recreation areas, and require that future private
recreation areas are developed and equipped so as to be the equivalent of
a public neighborhood park.
Policy 9C.3.1 The City shall continue to enforce the Subdivision and Platting Regulations
which require that all residential developments that exceed 100 dwelling units
provide a private recreation area, unless however, public parks are located
within one-half mile from the project, which satisfies the 2.5 acre per 1000
residents LOS standard.
Policy 9C.3.2 The City shall continue to enforce specific criteria within the Subdivision and
Platting Regulations that guide the development and facilitation of private
park areas and/or private recreation facilities that are used to satisfy the
requirements for receiving 50% credit toward the public park dedication
requirement. The criteria shall require that the needs of residents are met in
accordance with standards contained in this element. A study shall be
conducted to determine the impact of this criteria, especially regarding the
type and size of amenities that can receive partial impact fee credit.
Policy 9C.3.3 The City shall continue to require that all residents of a Planned Unit
Development project have access to at least a portion of the private recreation
areas provided, unless similar public facilities are located within a one-half
mile walking distance. A Planned Unit Development with private recreation
areas will qualify for a 50% credit against the required impact fee.
Policy 9C.3.4 The City shall continue to require the dedication of sufficient land for a
neighborhood park site at the time that the following properties are rezoned or
platted for residential use: Klatt Property, and the Sand & Sea Mobile Homes.

park dedication, fees in lieu thereof equal to the value of the land to be
dedicated, or a combination of fees and land.
Policy 9C.3.6 The City shall continue to enforce regulations, which require the dedication of
lakefront park sites in residential developments. Such recreation areas adjacent
to water should be considered as minimum criteria for receipt of a 50% credit.
Objective 9C.4 The City shall provide public access to two native habitat sites for the
purpose of providing a nature study area by the year 2002 consistent with
the development schedule for seacrest scrub.

Policy 9C.4.1
In order to ensure the preservation of important natural areas and reservations,
the City shall, by 2002, identify scrub sites to be developed as a nature study
area and identify the appropriate public or private funding mechanism(s) or
source(s) appropriate for such a scrub preservation project.
Public School Facilities
Goal 9D To provide for future availability of public school facilities consistent with the
adopted level of service standard. This goal shall be accomplished recognizing
the constitutional obligation of the school district to provide a uniform system
of free public schools on a countywide basis.
Objective 9D.l To ensure that the capacity of schools is sufficient to support student
growth at the adopted level of service standard for each year of the five-
year planning period and through the long term planning period.
Policy 9D.1.1 The LOS standard is the school's utilization which is defined as the
enrollment as a percentage of school student capacity based upon the Florida
Inventory of School Houses (FISH). The level of service (LOS) standard shall
be established for all schools of each type within the School District as 110
percent utilization, unless the school is the subject of a School Capacity Study
(SCS) undertaken by the School District, working with the Technical
Advisory Group (TAG) which determines that a particular school can operate
in excess of 110% utilization. No school shall operate in excess of 120%
utilization. The SCS shall be required if a school in the first student count of
the second semester reaches 108 % or higher capacity.
Policy 9D.l.2 The adopted LOS standard shall become applicable to the entire County at
such time as the School District has achieved the countywide adopted level of
service for all schools of each school type. In the interim, Table 1.1-1, of the
Public School Concurrency Element, establishes the tiered level of service
standards for each CSA by school type. Individual schools of each type may
exceed the Tiered LOS standards during the period in which Tiered LOS are

YOUR PARTNER FOR
SOLID WASTE SOLUTIONS
Subject: Availability of Solid Waste Disposal Capacity
Dear Mr. Bressner:
The Solid Waste Authority of Palm Beach County hereby provides certification that the Authority
has disposal capacity available to accommodate the solid waste generation for the municipalities and
unincorporated county for the coming year of 2007. This letter also constitutes notification of
sufficient capacity for concurrency management and comprehensive planning purposes. Capacity is
available for both the coming year, and the five and ten year planning periods specified in 9J-5.005(4).
As of September 30, 2006, the Authority's North County Landfills had an estimated 35,026,315
cubic yards of landfill capacity remaining. Based upon the existing Palm Beach County population, the
most recently available population growth rates published by the University of Florida Bureau of
Economic and Business and Research (BEBR), medium projection, and projected rates of solid waste
generation, waste reduction and recycling, the Solid Waste Authority forecasts that capacity will be
available at the existing landfill through approximately the year 2021, assuming the depletion of the
Class I and Class ill landfills is approximately balanced.
The Board of the Solid Waste Authority authorized the initial design and permitting efforts to
develop a new landfill on 1600 acres owned by the Authority. The capacity of this new landfill facility
will extend the life of the solid waste system beyond the year 2065.
The Authority continues to pursue options to increase the life of its existing facilities and to provide
for all the County's current and future disposal and recycling needs. As part of its responsibility, the
Authority will provide an annual statement of disposal capacity, using the most current BEBR
projections available. Please provide copies of this letter to your plan review and concurrency
management staff. If you have any questions or I can be of further assistance, please do not hesitate to
contact me.

One of the projects utilizing this CRALLS is Kenco Communities development on
Brookside Nursery property, and adjacent properties that are part of the same
development order, as part of the land swap with Palm Beach County for the
Delray Holdings 282 property on SR 7. As a mitigating factor for this CRALLS,
this developer shall participate in the land swap for the purpose of reducing
vehicle-miles traveled on SR7 and Lyons Road. In case the land swap does not
materialize, as a mitigation for this CRALLS, the project must enter into a funding
agreement to the satisfaction of County Engineer, to pay for the construction of
the 6-laning of West Atlantic Avenue from Florida's Turnpike to Jog Road and the
4-laning of West Atlantic Avenue from Lyons Road to Starkey Road.
The temporary CRALLS is also available for the benefit of developments already
approved on the Appolonia, Dubois, Montage, Terra Nova PUD, Terra Nova
MUPD, Tivoli Isles, Atlantic Commons, Delray TMD, and Mizner Country Club
properties as well as for the Hyder PUD development which has already been
approved for concurrency but has not yet received a development order. As a
mitigation for this CRALLS, any of the above-referenced developments utilizing
this CRALLS, must enter into a funding agreement to the satisfaction of County
Engineer, to pay for the construction of the 6-laning of West Atlantic Avenue from
Florida's Turnpike to Jog Road and the 4-laning of West Atlantic Avenue from
Lyons Road to Starkey Road.
The temporary CRALLS shall expire on December 31,2012.

identified in this policy. Should any of the mitigation measures for the
Congress/Old Boynton CRALLS not be satisfactorily completed, it shall be
deemed that the City is in violation of the provisions of the CRALLS and no
further building permits requiring the CRALLS for concurrency shall be issued.
Mitigation Measures to be implemented in conjunction with this CRALLS include
the following:
1) Within three (3) years of adoption of this CRALLS, a Palm Tran Route
and/or City Trolley route serving the Boynton Town Center and Boynton
Village (Winchester Property) Developments with connections to the
Congress/Old Boynton area (connects to Mall, Downtown and Tri-Rail
station) shall be initiated. Should a Palm Tran route not be in place, the
City must operate a trolley service for a minimum of 2 years after
issuance of certificates of occupancy for 95% of the gross square footage
on the Boynton Town Center and Boynton Village (Winchester Property);
but after said 2-year period, if the trolley service operates with low
ridership or excessive costs, the City may petition the County Engineer to
eliminate said obligation.
2) CRALLS Mitigation Measures to be implemented by all developments
utilizing this CRALLS (including Boynton Town Center and Boynton
Village - Winchester Property), and to be included in all new concurrency
approvals and Development Order (D.O.) conditions for those
developments proposing more than 10 dwelling units and utilizing this
CRALLS to set aside at least 10% of their development for occupancy by
very low income (less than or equal to 50% of the County's median
annual adjusted gross income) households and low income (more than
50% but less than or equal to 80% percent of the County's median annual
adjusted gross income) households, and 10% for moderate income (more
than 80% but less than or equal to 120% percent of the County's median
annual adjusted gross income) households. Units meeting this
requirement shall include no more than 40% renter occupied units for low
income and very low income households and no more than 30% renter
occupied units for moderate income households. The remaining units
must be owner occupied. The renter occupied units must continue to be
attainable for a period of at least 20 years, and the owner occupied units
must continue to be attainable for a period of at least 10 years.
Attainability shall be assured through deed restrictions on these
properties.
However, as an alternative to the above requirement, the Boynton Town
Center and Boynton Village (Winchester Property) may choose to
contribute a fee in-lieu amounting to $750,000. Any other development
with a residential component may also choose to contribute a fee in-lieu
of units. The sum amount of this fee shall be established by the City
Commission and Board of County Commissioners, and it shall be paid to
the City of Boynton Beach's affordable housing program(s) to finance
land acquisition, homeowner assistance, or other actions to further the
City's affordable housing objectives as specified in the City of Boynton
Beach Comprehensive Plan.

Strategic Master Plan
I. INTRODUCTION
A. Overview
Throughout time, parks and open spaces have provided a unifying community structure and an
aesthetic identity to our urban environments as well as providing recreational opportunities.
While it is difficult to place a precise value on our parks and open space systems, it is clear to all
that they provide a variety of benefits that contribute to the "liveability" of our cities, such as:
· Accommodate recreational activities,
· Attract recreation enthusiasts,
· Increase property values,
· Provide public access to natural recreation areas and significant sites,
· Provide and enhance animal and plant habitats,
· Conserve, preserve and protect historic character,
· Contribute to the city's identity and marketability,
· Enhance aesthetic quality, and
· Contribute to clean air and water.
Parks and recreation opportunities contribute to the health of residents, provide a variety of
recreational and educational activities for all ages, and preserve and enhance the quality and
integrity of the natural environment. Parks and recreational opportunities are also significant in
attracting visitors to the community and, thus, contribute to local tourism and economic
development. When a community has a comprehensive and interrelated system of parks and
recreation opportunities that responds to the needs and values of local residents, the residents
support their local governments, become involved in their community activities, and reap the
benefits of a "quality-of-life" community.
Over the past year, the importance of recreation and parks has been even more compelling with
the "It Starts in Parks" (ISIP) program initiated by the Florida Recreation and Parks Association
and incorporated into the National Recreation and Parks marketing plan. The ISIP campaign is
intended to better position parks and recreation in the future to be recognized and supported for
the benefits and services provided by the profession. The eight (8) messages of the ISIP
campaIgn are:
. Personal Achievement
. Sense of Community
. Conservation of our natural resources
· Economic development
. Good health
. Ties to our heritage
. Respect for nature
. Florida's future
The recreation and parks facilities in the State of Florida generate over $34,000,000,000 ($34
Billion) annually. The profession of recreation and parks has a startling effect on the citizens
and visitors to the state. This department is making sure that this message is taken into our
community by implementing the ISIP campaign in the City of Boynton Beach.

the expectations of the community. It includes recommendations that give guidance for
improving programs and services, creating a financially responsible organization, making land
acquisitions and protecting open spaces, improving and establishing new facilities and instituting
continuous improvement processes. This plan will enable the city to make the necessary changes
that will help sustain an attractive and livable city.
The City of Boynton Beach Recreation and Park staff prepared this Master Plan to serve as the
strategic planning tool for making parks, open space, facility and recreational program decisions
over the next decade. The master Plan includes recommendations that give guidance for
improving programs and services, creating a financially responsible organization, making land
acquisitions and protecting open spaces, improving and establishing new facilities and instituting
continuous improvement processes. Through these processes, the department will constantly and
consistently review community input and pro actively make the necessary changes that will help
create an attractive and livable city.
The City of Boynton Beach is experiencing unprecedented growth. With this increase in
development come new issues, expectations and demands for expansion and protection of park
lands and open spaces. The anticipation of these changes has led to the research and design of
this Master Plan in the hopes that everyone of the demands are met, and that the City of Boynton
Beach will continue to find itself among the best communities in the country.
The City of Boynton Beach is growing and becoming more diverse in its economic development.
In Boynton Beach, parks and recreation services continue to be an integral part of establishing
and sustaining a higher quality of life while highlighting an image and character that is unique to
Boynton Beach. To this end, parks and recreation services can affect the city by their ability to:
· Provide social benefits by connecting people within the community regardless of income,
background and ability.
· Provide economic benefits by improving the quality of life in the comni.unity and helping to
attract businesses and residents to the city.
· Provide protection of the environment by establishing greenways, natural areas and open
spaces managed by the city.
· Provide benefits to individuals and the community by promoting physical fitness and self-
improvement.
The process used to shape this Master Plan included the following tasks:
· Evaluating current services and operations of the Recreation and Parks Department.
· Evaluating current and future needs for parks, recreation services, recreation facilities, open
space and trails.
· Creating equity access maps to visualize and determine gaps of services.
· Developing recommendations and an implementation plan for the future that will provide the
greatest benefits to the residents.

B. Methodology
In 2001, the City of Boynton Beach Recreation and Parks Department commissioned a Needs
Assessment, which was prepared by Management Learning Laboratories. The purpose of the
assessment was to determine recreation interests, facility usage, and opinion of recreation as
related to the Boynton Beach system of parks and facilities. After review of the information that
resulted from the study, it was determined that a master plan of the park system should be
developed that would steer the direction of the acquisition and development of parks and
facilities into the future of Boynton Beach. In July 2004, the firm of Glatting Jackson Kercher
Anglin Lopez Rinehart, Inc. was hired to solicit public input regarding the city's parks,
recreation facilities and programs and to prepare the Conceptual Parks and Recreation System
Map and make changes to the City's Comprehensive Plan that will allow the recommendations
in the System Map to occur.
Through a series of meetings with city staff, board members from the Senior Advisory and the
Recreation and Parks Boards, and the general public, a system-wide map was developed that
indicated existing parks and proposed parks, recreation facilities, greenways, bikeways and open
space.
Interviews were held with the City Commission, City Manager, Interim Director of Human
Resources, the Planning Team and staff to determine the strengths and weaknesses of the
department. Complete summaries of these interviews are included in the Appendix of this
report. In summary, the participants were asked four (4) questions regarding the "ideal" park
system, issues that need to be addressed, funding mechanisms and partnerships. In general, it
was felt by most of the participants that the department has a motivated and dedicated staff, the
parks inventory needed to be analyzed, departmental organization needed to be analyzed,
funding sources need to be identified and partnerships with schools and private developers
should be addressed.
Using this information, the Recreation and Parks staff analyzed the current and future needs for
additional staff and operating resources. Park standards, or Levels of Service, for park land and
facilities were determined. Potential funding sources were identified.
In 2007, Recreation and Park staff updated the Strategic Plan to show projects that have been
completed since the adoption of the 2006 plan and to match the 2007-2011 Capital
Improvements Plan (CIP) as adopted by the City Commission.
c. Purpose of Plan
The Master Plan has been prepared to address the following key goals:
· Assess current needs for recreation and park facilities for the citizens of Boynton Beach.

II. INVENTORY AND ANALYSIS
A. Parks Classifications
The Recreation and Parks Department, through the Strategic Planning process, has
developed different park classifications. The following the definitions:
Urban Oven/Civic Svace
Urban parks will provide civic open space in the downtown area for the enjoyment of all
the residents of the City as well as visitors to Boynton Beach. They serve as elegant
public spaces that are designed to complement the urban patterns of downtown Boynton
Beach. These parks will serve as urban oases amongst the bustle of downtown activity.
Urban parks should be located according to traditional town planning principles and good
urban design. The parks will be of two types: (1.) downtown plazas, and (2.) waterfront
parks. Additional urban pocket parks will be added to complement the historic urban
framework. All of the urban parks should be tied together with a network of streetscaped
pedestrian walkways and urban trails. The waterfront park system will build upon and
enhance the waterfront park network in the downtown. The waterfront park system will
create a connected system of urban park amenities along the waterfront and provide
direct access to the activities of the downtown. The park facilities and programs of the
park spaces should complement the objectives of the Community Redevelopment
Agency. The urban park experience should embrace the spirit of Boynton Beach as a
quality-of-life destination with a quaint traditional hometown feel.
Community Parks
Community parks are typically the largest active parks in the City and serve the largest
population base. They are the most comprehensive in terms of recreation activities
provided. These parks are the most expensive to build and maintain.
The optimum service area for a community park in Boynton Beach should be one (1)
mile. Community parks should be serviced by arterial and collector streets and be easily
accessible throughout the service area by way of interconnecting trails. While
community parks should be strategically located through the community, their locations
can be significantly impacted by other types of parks, most notably regional or county
parks, which can contain some of the same recreational opportunities provided in
community parks.
City of Boynton Beach Recreation and Parks Department
Strategic Master Plan

The optimal size of a community park should be based on the land area needed to
accommodate the desired uses.
Special Use Parks
Special use parks are those parks with unique, specialized amenities that cater to a select
group of users. In Boynton Beach, special use parks include the cemeteries, the Little
League Park and Kids Kingdom. Efforts should be made to include future special uses in
neighborhood and community parks rather than segregate them into separate areas.
Neiehborhood Parks
Neighborhood parks will be the basic unit of the Boynton Beach park system and serve as
the recreational and social focus of each neighborhood. They should be developed for
both active and passive activities geared specifically for those living within the
neighborhood service area. These parks should accommodate a wide variety of age and
user groups, including children, adults, seniors, family groups, and special populations.
Creating a sense of place in each park by bringing together the unique character of each
site with the social character of the neighborhood will be vital to creating a successful
design.
Neighborhood parks should be centrally located within each service area, which should
encompass a ~ mile distance, and if possible, uninterrupted by non-residential streets or
other physical barriers. Each site should be accessible from throughout its service area by
way of interconnecting trails, sidewalks or low-volume streets. Ease of access and
walking distance are critical factors in locating a neighborhood park. A person's
willingness to use a neighborhood park is greatly reduced if they perceive it to be
difficult to access or not within a reasonable walking distance. Ease of access, central
location and linkage to greenways are the key concerns when selecting a site. The site
itself should exhibit the physical characteristics appropriate for both active and passive
recreational uses. Since one of the primary reasons people go to a park is to experience a
pleasant outdoor environment, the site should have some innate aesthetic qualities. "Left-
over" parcels of land that are undesirable for development are generally undesirable for
neighborhood parks as well and should be avoided. Additionally, it is more cost effective
to select a site with inherent aesthetic qualities, rather than trying to create them through
extensive site development. Given the importance of location, neighborhood parks should
be selected before a subdivision is platted and acquired as. part of the development
process.
It is recommended that 5 acres be the generally accepted minimum size necessary to
provide space for a menu of activities. The site should have well-drainage and suitable
soils and level topography. Ideally, it should be connected to other park system
components such as natural areas, lakes, ponds, and greenways. Land within a flood plain
should only be considered if the facilities are constructed above the appropriate flood
elevation. Although a park size of 5 acres is recommended, the actual size should be
based on the land area needed to accommodate the desired uses.
City of Boynton Beach Recreation and Parks Department
Strategic Master Plan

Since each neighborhood is unique, input from neighborhood residents should be used to
determine the development program for the park. The guidelines presented here should
be used as a framework to guide program development and ensure consistency with other
park system components. They should not be used as an impediment to creative design
possibilities.
Development of a neighborhood park should seek to achieve a balance between active
and passive uses. Active recreational facilities are intended to be used in an informal and
unstructured manner. Neighborhood parks are not intended to be used for programmed
activities that result in overuse, noise, parking problems and congestion.
Neighborhood parks should be the basic unit of the Boynton Beach park system and serve
as the recreational and social focus of each neighborhood.
Conservation Lands
The function of an Open Space Park or Greenbelt is to provide space where people can
engage in passive and active recreation, provide preservation and conservation of
environmentally sensitive areas and habitat for wildlife, and to serve as corridors to
effectively link park system components together to form a continuous park environment.
These parks should be located in areas of significant natural resources, aesthetic
landscapes, and open space. There are no specific standards for how much conservation
land a community should have. Instead, it is dependent on the number and quality of
natural and historical resources in the area, the public desire to preserve these valuable
sites, and the willingness ofthe citizens to provide funds for their preservation.
Water and Beach Access Parks
These parks offer opportunities for access to and interaction with the Intracoastal
Waterway and the Atlantic Ocean. Amenities can include kayaking and canoe launches,
fishing areas, observation boardwalks, day docks, boat launching ramps, volleyball
courts, picnic areas, restrooms and parking. Generally each park has its own unique
features that are defined by the relationship with the water.
Neighborhood and community input through the public input process should be the
primary determinant of development of any park. The guidelines posted in this document
should be used as a framework to guide program development and ensure consistency
with the other park system components. They should not be used as an impediment to
creative and unique design concepts.

c. Analysis
3. Park Land and Facilities
a. Existing Parks and Facilities
· Urban Open/Civic Space
o Bicentennial Park is a passive park on Federal Highway.
The park has little to attract visitors; however, it will be
greatly impacted by the downtown redevelopment and will
become a critical part of the urban open space of the town
center.
o Edward F. Harmening Arbor Park is a small passive park
located adjacent to the East Water Treatment Plant. It has
several species of flowing trees. Its location and lack of
parking create an isolated park area with very little
visitation.
o Heritage Park located on Seacrest Boulevard, is a popular
gathering space for neighborhood residents. There is a
monument dedicated to Boynton Beach African Americans.
The monument is frequently vandalized. Recent
beautification efforts include the removal of the planters
and installation of 35 palms.
o Hibiscus Park is a small park located in the Lake Boynton
Estates neighborhood. The playground equipment is
scheduled for replacement is FY 2007/08.
o Kiwanis/Sierra Club Park is located on Northeast 22nd
Avenue and is simply a grassy area.
o Veterans Park is located in the downtown core of the City.
At present, it is a passive park with large ficus trees. In the
future, the park will become precious green space in the
urban downtown center.
· Nei!!hborhood Parks
o Boynton Lakes Park is located in the Boynton Lakes
neighborhood and contains a playground, a walking trail
and a large open grassy area. The play equipment and park
furniture was replaced in 2005.
o Civic Center Park is located on Ocean Avenue and has new
play equipment and a maze made from shrubs.
o Forest Hill Park is located in the Forest Hill neighborhood
and is bordered on the west side by a sound barrier wall on
1-95. This park was built in 1972 and was showing signs of
aging. The park furniture and play equipment was replaced
City of Boynton Beach Recreation and Parks Department
Strategic Master Plan
9
in 2006, as was the fence in the front. Plans include
replacement of existing and additional landscaping in 2007.
o Galaxy Park is one of the oldest parks in the system and is
well used. The restroom was renovated in 2005. The
fencing around the baseball fields was replaced in 2006.
The playground equipment needs to be replaced in
2006/07.
e Laurel Hill Park, located in the Laurel Hills neighborhood,
contains play equipment, a basketball court and an open
grassed area. The park was built in 1972 and is in need of
renovation. Replacement of the play equipment and park
furnishings was completed in 2006. A double rail fence is
scheduled for installation in 2007.
o Meadows Park is an extremely popular park used by city
residents and school groups. While the park was built in
1994, the heavy use has created bare areas around the
pavilions and courts. The playground equipment and park
furniture were replaced in 2006. Because of the heavy use
and enj oyment by park users, this park will require
consistent maintenance and upgrades.
o Pence Park is the oldest park in the system. Neighborhood
residents heavily use the basketball courts. The fence
around the baseball field was replaced in 2005. The
restrooms were renovated in recent years. The playground
equipment is scheduled for replacement in 2006/07.
o Pioneer Canal Park has the only freshwater boat ramp in
the park system, which is widely used. The ramp was
scheduled for renovation in 2004/05 but is on hold pending
scheduling of a canal dredging project by the South Florida
Water Management District. The tennis courts are also
heavily used. The park was not master planned and use of
the property is not effective. This park needs to be
completely renovated. The installation of a double rail
fence, renovation of the restrooms and resurfacing of the
basketball and tennis courts is scheduled for 2007.
o Rolling Green Park is in the rear of Rolling Green
Elementary School and was used primarily by soccer
players and cricket players. A new school is under
construction and the park area is being used as a staging
area. Once construction is complete, the park will be
restored to a multi-purpose playing field.
o Southeast Neighborhood Park is in the process of being
developed. It is scheduled for completion in 2007 and will
include a picnic pavilion, two tennis courts, picnic areas,
walking trail, landscaping and a small parking lot.

· Special Use Parks
o Barton Memorial Park is a cemetery that contains early
African American resident gravesites dating back to the
early 1900's. It is currently closed for burials.
o Boynton Beach Memorial Park is the primary public
cemetery in Boynton Beach. There are several hundred
gravesites remaining and the property was replatted to
identify over 300 more sites. The trees were heavily
damaged by the 2004 hurricanes and were replaced in
2005/06.
o Kids Kingdom Playground is a "Leathers" designed
wooden and concrete play structure that is an extremely
popular destination for residents, schools, camps and
visitors. The structure was built in 1996 and is beginning
to show signs of wear. The structure must be inspected
regularly for splinters and damage. Funds are included in
the Capital Improvements Plan (CIP) for annual
maintenance.
o Little League Park contains four (4) baseball fields that are
used primarily by the Boynton Beach Little League
organization. Hurricane Wilma caused considerable
damage to the fields and the concession building. Extreme
Makeover rebuilt Field 2 and portion of Field 3 and the
concession building. The City rebuilt Field 1 and replaced
the lights. Consideration should be given to accessibility
codes.
o Sara Sims Park and Cemetery is an older park that
requires constant maintenance due to vandalism This park
is in the CRA district.
· Water Beach Access

heavily used by both boaters and park users. The fishing
pier was replaced in 2004. The restrooms inside the
community center were renovated in 2004. Playground
equipment is scheduled for replacement in 2008/09. The
restrooms are scheduled for renovation in FY 2007. The
canal will be dredged in November 2007. Additionally,
Palm Beach County is providing funding for a new or
renovated restroom, new picnic pavilions and
improvements to the boardwalk.
o Intracoastal Park, the newest park in the system, is located
between Federal Highway and the Intracoastal Waterway.
It is an extremely popular site that contains picnic shelters
and a large, handicapped accessible play structure. A

o Jaycee Park is a 5-acre park located between Federal
Highway and the Intracoastal Waterway. Currently, there
is a bocce ball court and a few picnic tables; however, the
park is scheduled for development is 20067.
o Knollwood Park is a 3.0 acre park located at Lawrence
Road and Meadows Drive. The newest park in the system,
Knollwood was built by D. R. Horton Developers as a
public/private partnership. In exchange from fill removed
from the park site and used for development, the developer
paid for the construction of the park. Park amenities
include a pond with well planted littoral zones, a walking
path, a gazebo and a small parking area.
o Mangrove Park contains a 1/4 mile aluminum walkway
through 10 acres of mangroves on the Intracoastal
Waterway and includes educational kiosks and an
observation deck. Trash accumulation in the mangroves is
an unpreventable problem.
o Oceanfront Park is the City's only beach access. It is
heavily used, primarily by residents of Boynton Beach and
Ocean Ridge. The boardwalk was scheduled for
replacement in 2004; however, the cost of the replacement
exceeded the budget. It is now scheduled for replacement
in 2007/08. A design firm will be hired in 2006/07 to begin
construction drawings.
· Greenwav/Bikewavs
o Palmetto Green Linear Park is located on the south side of
the SFWMD C-16 canal. The pathway turns into several
overlooks that could serve as fishing piers; however, a great
amount of trash and refuse has been tossed off the
platforms making fishing difficult.
· Conservation Lands
o Rolling Green Scrub is actually 5 different scrub sites
located in and around Ezell Hester Park.
o Rosemary Scrub is owned by Palm Beach County and is
maintained in conjunction with the Boynton Beach
Recreation and Parks Department. The scrub is open to the
public.
o Sea crest Scrub is also owned by Palm Beach County,
maintained in conjunction with the Boynton Beach
Recreation and Parks Department and open to the public.
· Community Parks
o Congress Avenue Community Park is home to the city's
tennis complex. The fencing and lights on several of the
courts were replaced in summer of 2005. A Master Plan
was done for future park development that includes a
barrier-free park. A fund raising campaign will be

Strategic Master Plan
12
conducted to raise the money necessary to build the park.
There is deep water well installed by the Utilities
Department on the southwest side of the park.
a Ezell Hester Park is one of the largest parks in the system
and the athletic facilities are heavily used. The sand
volleyball courts were replaced with a large play structure
in 2005/06.
a Wilson Park is in the process of a complete renovation.
The existing community center has been demolished and a
new two-story center is under construction with completion
anticipated in November 2007. New play equipments will
also be added. The pool will be replaced.
b. Future Parks
· Urban Civic Open Space
a Woolbright Place, approximately 3 acres located on SW
8th Place and SW 1 st Court, will be sodded and irrigated.
Trees from other developments in the City will be relocated
to this sight. The City Commission has asked for
community input and feedback prior to this project taking
place.
· Nei!!hborhood Parks
a FP & L Park is located on old Southwest 23rd A venue
directly south of the FP & L Substation and is bordered on
the west by the E-4 canal and on the east by the CSX
Railroad. This park could be developed so that access to
the canal is provided. This 7.68-acre site has not been
master planned.
a Girl Scout Park is located on the east side of the E-4 canal
and is heavily treed with mature canopy. This site also
could be developed for access to the canal. A master plan
has not been done at this time for this 9.73 acre site.
a Meadows I/Nautica Sound Park Site is a 9-acre site that
could be developed as a community park since there is no
community park in this quadrant of the city; however, it is
expected that surrounding neighborhoods would prefer a
more passive use. A master plan has not been done for this
site.
· Community Parks
a Nichols Property is a 15.4 acre site located on the west side
of the Boynton Beach Mall. This site is not within the city
boundaries at this time.
a Quantum Park Site is a 15-acre site located in the
Quantum Corporate Park east of the E-4 canal. A master
plan was done for this site that included athletic facilities;
however, it is anticipated that the use will change from

active to passive, nature-oriented as gopher tortoises have
been spotted on the site. The property is adjacent to a large
conservation area, which could be incorporated into the
nature-oriented aspects of the park with the addition of
interpretive trails. Additionally, this park could be used for
access to the canal for canoes and kayaks as part of the
greenwa y/blueway.
· Greenwav/Bluewavs
o Palmetto Green Linear Park is planned for expansion from
the existing path west to 1-95, then south to Galaxy School.
Funds are allocated in the CIP for land acquisition and
construction.
o The Greenway and Bikeway Master Plan is nearing

IV. PARK STANDARDS
A. Overview
Each community is unique. Every City has its own "personality" that differs because of
its demographic makeup. Due to differing geographical, cultural, social, economic and
environmental characteristics, each community must select a set of standards, which best
serves them for the cost of delivering those services.
The parks and recreation system of a given City needs to reflect the needs of the residents
of that City by setting standards for appropriate service. The standards are an expression
of the essential facilities needed to provide the level of park and recreation services
desired by the residents in each community. These standards are typically expressed as
ratios such as acres of park per 1,000 residents or numbers of tennis courts per 1000
residents. The ratios are very useful in order to quickly assess the quantities and cost of
the projected needs. Standards should be practical and achievable, and provide for
equitable allocation of parks and recreation resources throughout the community.
B. Description of Standards
The City of Boynton Beach currently has a level of service for park acreage of 2.5 acres
per 1,000 residents. It has been determined that this is an appropriate and satisfactory
level of services. Currently, the City owns 245.85 acres of developed park land which is
more than sufficient to meet this level now and in the future
c. Needs Assessment
In 2002, the City of Boynton Beach completed a Parks and Recreation Needs Assessment
which indicated the following facilities were a priority with those residents that
participated in the survey:
· Neighborhood Parks
· Nature Trails
· Picnic Areas
· Playgrounds in Parks
· Fishing Piers
· Amphitheater
· Jogging Paths
· Multipurpose Fields
· Swimming Pools
· Passive Recreation Areas
· Greenways
· Senior Center
· Tennis Courts

It is important that a needs assessment be completed every five (5) years to understand trends and
demographic changes. This information will assist the Department in determining what park facilities
and programs are needed and desired by the citizens of Boynton Beach. The City is due for a re-
assessment in 2007/08 and a request for funding will be included in the Department's 2007/08 budget
request.

B. Future Park Improvements
THE VISION: CITY OF BOYNTON BEACH'S RECREA nON AND PARKS SYSTEM
The Vision for the City of Boynton Beach's Recreation and Parks System is to create a green
infrastructure system of interconnected pleasing, functional, and well-maintained open spaces,
parks, greenways, streets, and waterways that will provide the permanent physical qualities of a
great city. Implementation of this Vision will enable the City's Recreation and Parks Department
to accomplish its mission to "engage Boynton Beach citizens in diverse recreational experiences,
and to cultivate parks and open spaces".
Working with City staff, members of the Recreation and Parks Advisory Board, and interested
citizens, Glatting Jackson first developed nomenclature for the different components of the
City's Park and Recreation System including:
· Urban Open / Civic Spaces
· Neighborhood Parks
· Community Parks
· Special use Facilities
· Water / Beach Access
· Greenways / Bikeways / Trails
· Conservation Lands
· Regional Parks
· Schools / School Parks
· Private Recreational Facilities
A long range plan was developed for each component of the System, responding to existing and
projected population arid demographics, lifestyles and needs.
LIFESTYLES
Early in the planning process, it was determined that the parks and recreation needs of City
residents vary depending upon where they live. Therefore the City conducted a "Lifestyles
Workshop" on November 17,2004 to discuss differences in both existing and proposed lifestyles
and recreation needs in the various quadrants. The notes from the Workshop are attached
(Meeting Minutes, November 17, 2004).
District 1, the Southwest Quadrant, is characterized as an area of retirees living in planned
communities, most of which have their own private recreational amenities; therefore the public
recreation needs in this quadrant are primarily for large passive parks. It is anticipated that this
demographic will change much over the next 15 - 20 years.
District II, the Northeast Quadrant, is an older coastal community that is experiencing changes
in its demographic mix, with more families and young professional couples moving into the area.
This area of the City has more parks and recreation facilities than any other, but many need to be
expanded or upgraded to accommodate increasing demands. The community stated that they
also needs jogging trails, bike paths, and cultural/arts facilities within walking distance of
residents as in other districts in the City.
City of Boynton Beach Recreation and Parks Department
Strategic Master Plan
20
District III, the Southeast Quadrant, is also an area of changing demographics, and is the most
likely area to "gentrify" in the coming years. The community's parks system needs to be
expanded with more developed open space and recreation facilities to meet the increasing
demand. This can be accomplished with the existing inventory.
District IV, the Northwest Quadrant, is the highest income area of the City, characterized as
"typical suburbia". There are not enough parks and recreation facilities to serve the youth and
family-oriented lifestyle of this quadrant, and trails and bike paths are also needed to meet the
needs of this growing suburban community.
PROPOSED IMPROVEMENTS
A Parks and Recreation System Conceptual Master Plan was developed to show the locations of
both existing and proposed facilities to meet the needs outlined above. Following is a description
of each of the proposed improvements. The proposed improvements are numbered to correspond
to the locations shown on Parks and Recreation System Map.
Urban Open / Civic Spaces
1. Bicentennial Park
· Complete renovation as an urban civic space for the downtown redevelopment.
4. Veterans Park
· Complete renovation as an urban civic space for the downtown redevelopment.
Neighborhood Parks
The City of Boynton Beach has 11Neighborhood Parks in its current Park System. As time and
use have taken a toll on some of these facilities, eight (8) parks were identified through
workshops and interviews as having a need for retrofitting and/or enhancement. In addition to
these renovations, nine (9) parcels owned by the City were identified to be developed as
Neighborhood Parks in a phased fashion in order to meet the recreational needs of the City's
population as it continues to increase in the years to come. Priority of park development would
have to be determined at a later date.
Since the adoption of the 2006 Strategic Plan, two (2) parks have been upgraded and two (2)
park sites have been developed.

Greenways/ Bikeways/ Trails
In August 2004 the City Commission approved, in concept, the City of Boynton Beach
Greenway and Bikeway Master Plan, which establishes an interconnected system of Greenways,
Blueways, Bikeways and Trails throughout the City. This System has been incorporated into
the Parks and Recreation Master Plan, as follows:
1. Palmetto Greens
· Expand the greenway to 1-95
3. Develop FEC Corridor Greenway
· Develop corridor as a "Transit Greenway" that provides for a multi-purpose recreational
path, and connects to adjacent cities and park systems.
4. Develop 1-95 Corridor Greenway
· Work with FDOT and the County to establish this Greenway, including a paved multi-
purpose path, shade trees, benches, bicycle stands, and signage.
5. Develop Intracoastal Waterway Boardwalk
· Develop a pedestrian, recreational promenade/boardwalk along Intracoastal Waterway
connecting Woolbright Road and Jaycee Park.
6. Develop Shaded Bikeways Program
· Enhance roadways throughout the City to create a system of tree-lined boulevards,
avenues and streets that link neighborhoods, parks, and commercial/employment areas,
and safely accommodate motorists, cyclists, and pedestrians.
City of Boynton Beach Recreation and Parks Department
Strategic Master Plan

7. Develop Recreational Greenways
· Develop recreational greenways along Canal R.O.W., Utility Easements, and any
available vacant parcels as a means to create citywide "Green Infrastructure Network."
Conservation Lands
The current Park System provides residents with three conservation sites: Rolling Green Scrub,
Rosemary Scrub, and Seacrest Scrub. One (1) additional parcel was identified through the
interviews and workshop as potential conservation sites that would provide residents with
additional passive and educational recreation experiences:
5. New Conservation Land - Quantum Conservation Site (Private)
o Acquire site and develop along with Quantum Community Park to create larger and more
influential environmental park.
Schools/ Religious Institutions
Schools and religious institutions provide opportunities for public/private partnerships to meet
community recreation needs. Three potential sites for partnerships include:
9. Rolling Green Elementary School/ School Park
10. Temple Beth Kodesh
11. New Congress Middle School/ School Park
Private Recreation Facilities
Similar to most counties and cities of South Florida, the City of Boynton Beach is comprised of
many private and gated Planned Unit Developments (PUD), condominiums, and apartment
complexes. Many of these developments provide their residents with recreational facilities and
amenities in the form of community pools, playgrounds, sports courts, etc. These facilities,
although private, help meet the recreational needs of City residents.
Additional Planning, Code Revisions
Each of the facilities outlined above require further planning and design in order to be
implemented. Additionally, the City needs to adopt its Greenway Plan as part of the City's
Comprehensive Plan, and revise the Land Development Codes to require the implementation of
greenway segment and/or neighborhood and community parks as part of the development
approval process.
