· 9. REGULAR AGENDA:
9.A. WAIVER REQUEST/210 ENFIELD ROAD: Consider a request to waive the
requirement for a hedge to screen an opaque fence located within the front and side street
setbacks at 210 Enfield Road. Quasi-Judicial Hearing
Mayor Schmidt asked the Commission to disclose any ex parte contacts. No ex
parte contacts were noted.
The City Attorney stated all involved parties would conduct this item as a quasi-
judicial hearing, which allows for presentations, the admission of documents into the record and
public testimony.
Barbara Garito, Acting City Clerk, swore in those individuals who wished to give
testimony on this item.
Paul Dorling, Planning Director, entered the Planning and Zoning Department's
project file #2001-181 into the record.
Paul Dorling, Planning Director, stated LDR Section 4.6.5(D) fencing that is greater
than 75% opaque and located in the front and street side yards shall also be screened by hedging
which is to be maintained at the full height of the fence. Further, LDR Section 4.6.5(F) requires
that fences which are to be landscaped shall be set back a minimum of two feet (2') from the
property line to provide adequate area for vegetation to mature. A hedge is required to screen
those portions of the 6-foot high wood fence located along Enfield Road and Aylesbury Road.
Mr. Dorling stated staff feels granting of the waiver would negatively impact the
neighborhood and would result in a special privilege. Therefore, staff recommends denial of the
waiver to LDR Section 4.6.5(D) to eliminate the requirement for a hedge to screen the proposed
6-foot high wood fence.
Justin Ford~ 210 Enfield Road~ stated the reason for the denial is basically an
esthetic judgment per the code. Mr. Ford displayed photos of a house on 2nd Avenue and 6th
Street which has a 6-foot fence along the same design that he wants to put up without hedging in
from. Mr. Ford stated there are two reasons why this requirement is unfair. One, the property is
an angled property and is setting their fence back 40 feet from the point because of site line
requirements. Mr. Ford stated he is willingly doing this and concedes approximately 400 square
feet of property because this is a valid community safety concern. Secondly, Mr. Ford stated the
other reason this is unfair is because of the additional cost for hedging. In conclusion, Mr. Ford
urged the Commission to grant the waiver.
There being no one else who, having been duly sworn, wished to address the
Commission, the public hearing was closed.
Mr. Perlman moved to approve the waiver request to LDR Section 4.6.5(D) to
eliminate the requirement for a hedge to screen the proposed 6 foot high wood fence located at

210 Enfield Road, seconded by Ms. McCarthy. Upon roll call the Commission voted as follows:
Mayor Schmidt- No; Mr. Perlman- Yes; Mrs. Archer- No; Mr. Levinson- No; Ms. McCarthy
- Yes. Said motion failed with a 3 to 2 vote, waiver denied.
9.B. MOTION TO RECONSIDER PRIOR LIEN REVIEW COMMITTEE
RECOMMENDATION: Consider a motion to reconsider the Lien Review Committee's prior
recommendation concerning Customer 55, David Hargrove.
The City Attorney advises that if the Commission wants to reconsider this matter
a motion to reconsider separate from the motion of substance of this matter needs to be made.
The Lien Review Committee's recommendation presented to Commission at the
March 6, 2001 meeting was that Mr. Hargrove's outstanding liens be reduced from $7,875 to
$1,000, providing the $1,000 was paid within 7 days after Mr. Hargrove being notified and
further providing payment being made by a certified check.
The motion on March 6, 2001 was approved unanimously that Mr. Hargrove be
responsible for paying $3,301.02 to the City within a twelve month period, and other
recommendations by the Lien Review Advisory Committee as listed in the staff report.
Lulu Butler, Director of Community Improvement, reported that the Lien Review
Committee felt very strongly about this and felt that they treated this as fairly as they possibly
could. The Lien Review Committee felt that the City would have a difficult time recovering all
of its the out-of-pocket costs and felt this was a compromise. In addition, the Lien Review
Committee had made this decision early on because they probably felt it was in the best interest
of both parties and would help expedite the process. Ms. Butler stated the Lien Review
Committee respectfully requests the Commission to rescind their previous motion.
Mr. Levinson asked if there was any approach made to Mr. Hargrove regarding
any kind of payment? In response, Ms. Butler explained that in the beginning she had
conversations with Mr. Hargrove informing him that the City was willing to set up a repayment
~chedule. Furthermore, Ms. Butler explained that although Mr. Hargrove has not spoken directly
to her, he might have had conversations with members of the Lien Review Committee. Ms.
Butler stated Mr. Hargrove has been informed about the decision made by the Commission.
At this point, there was no motion to rescind the previous action. Therefore, the
prior action by the Commission stands.
.9..C. LIEN REVIEW ADVISORY COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATIONS:
Consider approval of the Lien Review Advisory Committee's recommendation concerning
outstanding liens on various properties.
The City Manager explained each case has a demonstrable hardship that is beyond
the control of the persons that were involved. Therefore, the City Manager stated staff supports
the waiver of these outstanding liens as recommended by the Lien Review Advisory Committee.

06/19/01
Mrs. Archer moved to approve the recommendations by the Lien Review
Advisory Committee concerning the disposition of outstanding liens as listed in the staff report,
seconded by Mr. Peflman. Upon roll call the Commission voted as follows: Mr. Perlman - Yes;
Mrs. Archer - Yes; Mr. Levinson - Yes; Ms. McCarthy - Yes; Mayor Schmidt - Yes. Said
motion passed with a 5 to 0 vote.
9.D. UTILITY SERVICE AREA ENCROACHMENT: Consider action regarding
potable water service to Country Club Acres located west of Military Trail within Palm Beach
County.
The City Manager explained historically the City has included Country Club
Acres west of Military Trail as part of our utility service area and long range annexation area.
The residents are persistent with the County for water service and would have to cross the canal
to provide water service. The City Manager suggested the City consider offering water service
withoat requiring annexation.
Dick Hasko, Director of Environmental Services, stated there are 735 lots. Costs
to provide water service would be approximately $2.1 million. Mr. Hasko stated the City could
take advantage of an assessment program in conjunction with the County Engineering
Department. The County will bring those utilities to their customers as they are petitioned. Mr.
Hasko stated with regard to utilities and water mains there is 100% assessment. Mr. Gary
Dernlan, County Utilities Director has informed Mr. Hasko that other municipalities have taken
advantage of this through the County Engineering Department and their assessment program.
With regard to the revenue projections, Mr. Hasko stated connection fees would
yield $724,000, which would be a one-time expense to the residents. In terms of annual
additional revenues, Mr. Hasko projects annual average revenue of approximately $253,000 from
water service.
The City Manager stated at this point staff is not asking for any final decision on
this because a lot of details on the financial arrangements would need to be worked out.
However, the City Manager stated the question is should we pursue at all the possibility of
providing water service without annexation or should we take a firm stand that either the City
annex and not provide water service. If the Commission would like to pursue the possibility of
serving County Club Acres without annexation, then the City would develop the detailed
financial arrangements that would allow it to proceed and then bring back to the Commission for
consideration.
Mr. Perlman inquired about the annual operating costs. Mr. Hasko stated he does
not have any figures for the operating costs, however, he anticipates that annual operating costs
for a new water system would not be that much initially for the first 5-10 years.
It was the consensus to direct staff to proceed to explore the possibility of
providing water service to Country Club Acres without annexation.
9oEo
FORM AGREEMENT REGARDING USE OF STRUCTURES FOR FIRE
-7-
06/19/01
TRAINING: Consider approval of a form agreement allowing the Fire Department to perform
training in structures planned for demolition and giving the City Manager authorization to
execute the agreement.
Brian Shutt, Assistant City Attorney, explained that the Commission has before
them a modified agreement. Mr. Shutt clarified that on page two, paragraph #4, the owner is
only responsible for the costs associated with the demolition of the structure and the removal of
debris. Mr. Shutt stated the Fire Department wishes to have the ability to use structures in the
City that the owner intends to demolish, for training purposes. The agreement provides that the
City shall be responsible for any damage or injury caused to its employees or property or to other
persons or entities as a result of the City's use of the property for fire training purposes. In most
cases, the Fire Department does not become aware of the planned demolition of a building until
the last minute and there is very little time in which to try to perform training in the structure.
Mrs. Archer inquired about safety issues for surrounding areas depending on
where a particular piece of property is located. Mr. Shutt stated he would assume that it would
be the City's responsibility if there is any damage to other properties but hopefully this will not
OCCUT.
Kerry Koen, Fire Chief, stated the Fire Department would not pursue an
agreement in any area that they did not believe to be safe demolition. When the Fire Department
becomes aware of these properties, Chief Koen explained this is all taken into consideration as to
whether the property is viable for that purpose.
Mr. Perlman moved to approve the form agreement as amended, seconded by
Mrs. Archer. Upon roll call the Commission voted as follows: Mrs. Archer- Yes; Mr. Levinson
- Yes; Ms. McCarthy - Yes; Mayor Schmidt - Yes; Mr. Perlman - Yes. Said motion passed

The City Attorney stated this is a resolution adopting a contract for sale and
purchase of Lot 14, Block B, Carver Memorial Park (N.W. 15tnAvenue). The sale price is
$15,597 which includes attorney's fees and costs incurred by the estate and the property will

9.G. RESOLUTION NO. 42-01: Consider approval of Resolution No. 42-01
providing for the election not to collect permit fees but to increase our local communications
services tax rate by 0.12%.
The City Manager presented Resolution No. 42-01:
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY
OF DELRAY BEACH, FLORIDA, ELECTING TO INCREASE
THE LOCAL COMMUNICATIONS SERVICES TAX
CONVERSION RATE TO MINIMIZE FISCAL IMPACT TO
THE CITY DUE TO PASSAGE OF COMMUNICATIONS
SERVICES TAX SIMPLIFICATION LAW; ELECTING TO
INCREASE THE TOTAL RATE FOR THE LOCAL
COMMUNICATIONS SERVICES TAX BY 0.12 PERCENT IN
LIEU OF IMPOSING PERMIT FEES ON COMMLrNICATIONS
SERVICE PROVIDERS DESIRING TO OCCUPY CITY
RIGHTS-OF-WAY; PROVIDING FOR SEVERABILITY;
PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE DATE.
(The official copy of Resolution No. 42-01 is on file in the City Clerk's office.)
Brian Shutt, Assistant City Attorney, stated the resolution confirms the City's
election to not charge permit fees for communication companies that use municipal rights-of-
way. If a municipality chooses to collect permit fees from communications companies, Florida
Statutes have provided that a maximum amount that may be charged per company is $100.00.
However, if a municipality elects not to collect permit fees, the municipality may increase its
local communications services tax rate by 0.12%. Furthermore, Mr. Shutt stated this resolution
is also setting forth the conversion rate for this coming year as well as the following year to try
and make up any shortfall that may be coming because of the new law that is in affect.
The City Manager explained a communications service tax reform broadens the
base of the tax and reduces the rate.
Ms. McCarthy asked the City Manager if he has any feedback as to what expenses
-9-
06/19/01
would increase? In response, the City Manager stated this if very complex. For example, there
are certain services provided by Adelphia that have not been subject to this tax that would be
subject to the tax now.
Joe Safford, Finance Director, stated satellite services have never been taxed
before and now they are going to be calculated into our base. Therefore, the City will receive the
revenue from satellite services as well.
Mr. Perlman moved to approve Resolution No. 42-01, seconded by Mrs. Archer.
Upon roll call the Commission voted as follows: Ms. McCarthy - Yes; Mayor Schmidt - Yes;
Mr. Perlman - Yes; Mrs. Archer - Yes; Mr. Levinson - Yes. Said motion passed with a 5 to 0

the Parks and Recreation Department started the Summer Day Camp Program and needed buses.
Mr. Weldon stated staff obtained emergency quotes from area carriers. One quote did not meet
the City's specifications and the other quote xvas from Corporate Connection Sovereign Coach

Mr. Schmidt stated he wished to appoint Clay Wideman (incumbent) as a member
to the Downtown Development Authority (DDA) for a three-year term ending July 1, 2004,
seconded by Mr. Perlman. Upon roll call the Commission voted as follows: Mr. Perlman - Yes;
Mrs. Archer - Yes; Mr. Levinson - Yes; Ms. McCarthy - Yes; Mayor Schmidt - Yes. Said
motion passed with a 5 to 0 vote.
APPOINTMENTS TO THE COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT

term is for four (4) years ending July 1, 2005. The appointments will be made by Commissioner
Archer (Seat #2), Commissioner Levinson (Seat #3), Commissioner McCarthy (Seat #4), and
Mayor Schmidt (Seat #5).
Mrs. Archer commented that the term for the Community Redevelopment Agency
is fixed by the State. In addition, Mrs. Archer stated she received numerous telephone calls,
some of which were very speculative, and some calls very threatening. Mrs. Archer stated she
understands the need and desire for new participation on the CRA especially as we move
forward into some of the new development areas. However, Mrs. Archer stated we cannot
disregard the need for continuity. Also, the need for the CRA to work closely with the
Commission and reflecting the concerns, wants, direction, and methodology of the Commission.
Mrs. Archer moved to reappoint W. Howard Ellingsworth (incumbent) as a
member to the Community Redevelopment Agency for a four-year term ending July 1, 2005,
seconded by Ms. McCarthy. Upon roll call the Commission voted as follows: Mrs. Archer -
Yes; Mr. Levinson - Yes; Ms. McCarthy - Yes; Mayor Schmidt - Yes; Mr. Perlman - Yes.
Said motion passed with a 5 to 0 vote.
Mr. Levinson moved to reappoint Kevin McCarty (incumbent) as a member to the
Community Redevelopment Agency for a four-year term ending July 1, 2005, seconded by Mr.
Perlman.
Prior to the vote, Mr. Perlman commented that he made his appointment
approximately one month ago. Mr. Perlman stated he is the Commission liaison to the CRA and
Co-Chair of the Downtown Business District Plan. Aside from the people who live and work in
that district, he feels he has a stake in the success of that agency. Under the leadership of Mayor
Schmidt, Mr. Perlman stated this Commission has spent the past 16 months working very hard to
include the community in our planning processes because we believe it is important for residents
to have a say in the future of their own neighborhoods. Mr. Perlman stated he has personally
spent the better part of the year working to secure the MacArthur Grant to make sure the
-11-
06/19/01
Downtown Charrette would be successful. Mr. Perlman stated this work has not stopped as
meetings are held frequently regarding various aspects of the plan. Mr. Perlman stated last week
we received a two-year renewal grant that is MacArthur's acknowledgement that we have done a
good job. Mr. Perlman stated the attendance of the Charrette and its outcome has been the
proudest moment that he has had as a Commissioner. He feels the accomplishments the Steering
Committee accomplished over the months they were together and what was produced as a result
of that weekend was among the most significant accomplishments the City has had in its recent
history. Furthermore, Mr. Perlman stated the positive feelings derived from the Charrette would
mean nothing if we do not implement the plan particularly in relation to West Atlantic Avenue.
Mr. Perlman stated he is very disappointed that there was no participation at the Charrette from
the CRA Commissioners. Regardless of their reasons, Mr. Perlman feels this was a mistake.
Mr. Perlman stated regardless of who is reappointed or not this evening, our focus as a
Commission and community should be getting that plan accomplished.
Mr. Levinson stated he made a commitment when he was running and after he
was elected that he was going to do what he thought was best for all of Delray. Mr. Levinson
stated apparently some people do not think he is doing this and instead of discussing the issues
they are making personal attacks. Mr. Levinson suggested that if someone wants to disagree on
the merits of something then that is appropriate conversation. However, Mr. Levinson feels it is
not appropriate to make comments regarding the impunity of an individuals integrity or ability to
make a decision.
Upon roll call the Commission voted as follows: Mr. Levinson - Yes; Ms.
McCarthy - Yes; Mayor Schmidt - Yes; Mr. Perlman - Yes; Mrs. Archer - Yes. Said motion

and Families - Alcohol, Drug Abuse and Mental Health (ADM) Program for FY 2001-2002,
providing the City $185,000.00 in substance abuse prevention funding assistance.
-12-
Lula Butler, Director of Community Improvement, explained that this is an
annual contract with DCF on behalf of a contract that the City receives and administers as a
fiscal agent for MAD DADS. This particular source of funding funds their extended coordinator
position, their teen coordinator position, and the one-stop shop center at the sub-station. DCA
has changed their rules and presented a challenge to the City to have this contract back to them
by tomorrow. Ms. Butler stated there are no changes to the contract from last year to this year
and the grant is for $185,000.
Ms. McCarthy moved to approve the contract with the State of Florida of
Children & Families - Alcohol, Drug Abuse and Mental Health (ADM) Program for fiscal year
2001-2002, providing the City $185,000 in substance abuse prevention funding assistance,
seconded by Mrs. Archer. Upon roll call the Commission voted as follows: Mr. Perlman - Yes;
Mrs. Archer - Yes; Mr. Levinson - Yes; Ms. McCarthy - Yes; Mayor Schmidt - Yes. Said
motion passed with a 5 to 0 vote.
At this point, the time being 6:55 p.m., Senator Ron Klein gave a Legislative
Session Rap-Up.
PRESENTATIONS:
7oAo
Senator Ron Klein - Legislative Session Rap-Up
Senator Klein thanked the Commission for allowing him to give an update on the
Legislative Session. One, Mr. Klein stated the most important thing this year is election reform.
There will no longer be any type of punch card system but instead there will be an optical scan
system or a touch screen system which the County Commission has opted for if we have the
capacity to do it. Senator Klein stated the State Legislature has provided some funding but not
enough to provide for it so half the burden is left to the County for optical scan. Mr. Klein stated
the touch screen system is much more cosily but is a terrific system.
Secondly, Senator Klein stated the Supreme Court mandated that we will now
have a uniform system of interpretation throughout all 67 counties in the State of Florida. If
there is anything post election revisiting on a mechanical or manual recount, there will be a
uniform system. There will also be a uniform ballot design throughout the State. As suggested
by a number of people from this community, Senator Klein stated there would be a "bill of rights
and responsibilities" which will be published and available at every precinct. Senator Klein
stated there is some funding that has been provided for education but in the next legislative
session he will make sure there is more money available. Furthermore, Senator Klein feels the
most important thing is if there is new equipment and new rules, every voter needs to familiarize
themselves with the new equipment well before Election Day. Senator Klein stated he will be
pushing for creating an Independent Elections Commission and have governors over a period of
time with staggered terms appoint people and then that group will then appoint a Secretary to
operate the elections process.
At this point, the time being 7:00 p.m., the Commission moved to the duly
advertised Public Hearings portion of the agenda.

10. PUBLIC HEARINGS:
!0.A. ORDINANCE NO. 34-01: An ordinance amending Chapter 32 "Departments,
Boards and Commissions" of the City Code of Ordinances by modifying Section 32.07
"Membership Qualification/Requirements". Prior to consideration of passage of this ordinance
on Second and FINAL Reading, a public hearing has been scheduled to be held at this time.
The City Manager presented Ordinance No. 34-01:
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY
OF DELRAY BEACH, FLORIDA, AMENDING THE CODE OF
ORDINANCES OF THE CITY OF DELRAY BEACH,
CHAPTER 32, "DEPARTMENTS, BOARDS, AND
COMMISSIONS", HEADING "GENERAL PROVISIONS"; BY
AMENDING SECTION 32.07, "MEMBERSHIP
QUALIFICATIONS/REQUIREMENTS", TO PROVIDE THAT
SERVING AS AN OFFICER, DIRECTOR OR MANAGER OF A
BUSINESS WITHIN THE CITY CONSTITUTES AN
ADDITIONAL QUALIFICATION FOR MEMBERSH~;
PROVIDING A GENERAL REPEALER CLAUSE, SAVINGS
CLAUSE, AND AN EFFECTIVE DATE.
(The official copy of Ordinance No. 34-01 is on file in the City Clerk's office.)
The City Attorney read the caption of the ordinance. A public hearing was held
having been legally advertised in compliance with the laws of the State of Florida and the
Charter of the City of Delray Beach, Florida.
Mayor Schmidt declared the public hearing open.
Alice Finsh 707 Place Tavant~ asked the City Attorney to interpret what this
ordinance is and what will it do? In response, the City Attorney stated besides owning a business
if you are an officer, director or manager of a business located within the City this ordinance
adds additional qualifications. For example, the City Attorney explained that if someone does
not own a business but you are an officer, you are eligible for a board membership unless
excluded by other State Statutes, special laws or other ordinances. Ms. Finst stated at a previous
meeting there were comments expressed about the difficulty in getting people to serve on these
Boards. Ms. Finst stated she finds this is not entirely applicable to all the Boards available in the
City. She commented that there were 28 applications for the CRA Board so she feels there are
indeed people who are interested in serving if the Board is right for them. Ms. Finst suggested to
amend the ordinance a little further to read: "If the membership of the Board cannot be served
by residents of the City, that on an individual Board basis at the time that it come to the
Commission." In addition, Ms. Finst has some concerns about giving this blanket opportunity to
everyone even if they do work in the City.
-14-
06/19/01
With regard to some previous comments expressed by Ms. Finst, she reiterated
that we need independent monitors or people outside the City that have a different perspective to
be participants on our Boards or to observe what is going on with regard to the Board
appointments. Ms. Finst suggested that the City look into having the League of Women Voters
monitor the City Boards. Ms. Finst stated for years the League of Women Voters have been
monitoring different activities throughout the United States and feels they could perhaps make
suggestions based on what is going on in other communities and what the Commission suggested
is needed on our Boards in Delray Beach. Furthermore, Ms. Finst explained she would like to
see this treated as a conditional use where after extenuating circumstances of being unable to fill
a board position, then it would come back to the Commission and could be plugged in on a one-
time basis.
Jean Beer~ 2145 S.W. 26th Terrace~ agrees wholeheartedly with comments
expressed by Ms. Finst. Ms. Beer stated this is wrong and feels the Charter Revision Committee
members should consist of people who are residents or business owners of the City.
Jay Slavin~ 2601 N.W. l0th Street~ stated she feels this all boils down to a
communication problem between the citizens of Dekay and the workings of City Hall. Ms.
Slavin stated the Sun-Sentinel prints a special edition of the Delray Beach News several times a
week and suggested that the City utilize this paper in an effort to better educate the citizens. Ms.
Slavin stated someone in the City should be appointed to give the news of Delray Beach from
City Hall. Furthermore, Ms. Slavin stated when an ordinance is passed or an amendment has
been made there is no way of informing the citizens. Ms. Slavin stated the Sandoway parking lot
hours were recently extended until 9:00 p.m. and this is a perfect example of what citizens can
take advantage of but they do not even know about it. In conclusion, Ms. Slavin suggested that
the City have a boxed item in this Sun-Sentinel special edition marked "Special News from
Delray Beach" to better inform citizens of the happenings around town.
Henry. Williams~ 310 N.W. 3n~ Avenue~ asked for clarification regarding the
ordinance and questioned if you do not own a business within the City then does that mean you
cannot serve on a Board? In response, the City Attorney explained that you could be a resident of
ihe City and not own a business and still be able to serve on a Board. Mr. Williams concurred
with comments expressed by Ms. Finst and Ms. Beer. He stated although he feels they are doing
a good job, he feels there is always room for more and we should cooperate with all people.
John Bennett~ 137 Seabreeze Avenue~ stated the last hearing he spoke on behalf
of PROD and noted the changes that were made described as a compromise are not a
compromise in PROD's view. Mr. Bennett stated his general observation of the Downtown
Business Charrette, the Citizen Summit and Visions 2010 in one way or another addressed the
need to increase citizen participation in our government here in town. Mr. Bennett stated the
City is depriving citizens of the opportunity to serve on the City Boards by appointing people
who are not citizens. Mr. Bennett stated there was no personal intent to insult anyone and
extended an apology to Mr. Solomon if he felt offended.
Mr. Bennett stated there was a comment expressed that a Commissioner wished to
appoint someone who did not qualify to a pension board and he feels his desire is not really
-15-
06/19/01
relevant and it all comes down to facts and logic. In addition, Mr. Bennett stated he does not feel
it is relevant what other cities do for us, but since it was brought up he informed the Commission
of the following. Mr. Bennett stated the Clerk's office in Boynton Beach stated in order to serve
on a Board in Boynton Beach one must be a resident and elector of Boynton Beach and the
Board's coordinator for the City of Boca Raton stated that for 19 out of 20 of their Boards one
needs to be a registered voter in Boca Raton and the 20t~ is for the Mental Disability Board.
Bill Schwartz~ 3863 Live Oak Boulevard~ stated Ms. Slavin touched the tip of
the iceberg when she stated the necessity of appointments should appear in the press. Mr.
Schwartz suggested that the City have a part-time public relations person in-house. Mr.
Schwartz stated certain legislation should get to the press along with other newsworthy
accomplishments. Mr. Schwartz feels this would be beneficial to our citizens and our City and
urged the Commission to consider his suggestion.
Evelyn Dobson~ 130 N.W. 3rd Avenue~ stated that when someone is appointed to
fill a vacancy on a Board in Delray, Ms. Dobson suggested that there be a designated place
where there is paperwork available regarding the responsibilities of that particular Board. For
example, Ms. Dobson stated she applied for the CRA Board and her name was on the list of
appointees. However, when she was called and asked certain questions about different things
that were to take place in Delray and about different designated areas, she was not familiar with
what was being asked and therefore could not answer the questions properly. Ms. Dobson feels
it is important that the more information a person has then would be more familiar with the
undertakings of a Board or Committee and better prepared to answer the questions. In addition,
Ms. Dobson stated, if your name is on the list you already have that information in hand so when
you are asked the questions you can answer the questions in a proper manner because then you
know the boundaries and responsibilities of those Board members.
There being no one else who wished to address the Commission on this issue, the
public hearing was closed.
Mr. Levinson moved to adopt Ordinance No. 34-01 on Second and FINAL
Reading, seconded by Mrs. Archer. Upon roll call the Commission voted as follows: Mrs.
Archer - Yes; Mr. Levinson - Yes; Ms. McCarthy - Yes; Mayor Schmidt - Yes; Mr. Perlman -
Yes. Said motion passed with a 5 to 0 vote.
10.B. ORDINANCE NO. 32-01: An ordinance rezoning fi:om GC (General
Commercial) to AC (Automotive Commercial) for a parcel of land located on the west side of
North Federal Highway approximately 920 feet north of Lake Avenue for Autobahn Motors, Inc.
Prior to consideration of passage of this ordinance on Second and FINAL Reading, a public
hearing has been scheduled to be held at this time. Quasi-Judicial Hearing

AMENDING "ZONING MAP OF DELRAY BEACH, FLORIDA,
2000"; PROVIDING A GENERAL REPEALER CLAUSE, A
SAVING CLAUSE, AND AN EFFECTIVE DATE.
(The official copy of Ordinance No. 32-01 is on file in the City Clerk's office.)
The City Attorney read the caption of the ordinance. A public hearing was held
having been legally advertised in compliance with the laws of the State of Florida and the
Charter of the City of Delray Beach, Florida.
The City Attorney stated all involved parties would conduct this item as a quasi-
judicial heating, which allows for presentations, the admission of documents into the record and
public testimony.
Mayor Schmidt asked the Commission to disclose any ex parte contacts. No ex
parte contacts were noted.
At this point, the City Attorney announced anyone who wishes to speak on the
ordinance, the conditional use, or the waiver needs to be sworn in.
Barbara Garito, Acting City Clerk, swore in those individuals who wished to give
testimony on this item.
Paul Dorling, Planning Director, entered into the record the Planning and Zoning
Department's project file #2001-130 & #2001-131.
Mr. Dorling stated the 1.81-acre site is located on the west side of North Federal
Highway and is approximately 920 feet north of Lake Avenue within the North Federal Highway
redevelopment area.
On October 8, 1979, the City Commission annexed the subject property with the GC
(General Commercial) zoning designation. The property contained a mobile home park known
as the Arrow Trailer Park. The trailer park has been recently demolished to make way for
redevelopment of the site. The applicant has submitted an application to change the zoning
district map designation from GC (General Commercial) to AC (Automotive Commercial) to
allow the establishment of an automotive dealership. A conditional use application has been
submitted to allow a full service vehicle repair facility at the subject property in conjunction with
a "high end" used automobile and new electric automobile dealership.
The conditional use request is to establish a full service vehicle repair for the electric
car dealership and the used car facility. The hours of operation will be from 8:00 a.m. until 5:00
-17-
06/19/01
p.m. Monday through Friday and 8:00 a.m. until 1:00 p.m. on Saturday. They will be closed on
Sunday and there will be no body shop repair associated with this request. The report contains a
discussion with respect to the conditional use and capability with adjacent properties. Staff feels
that there are sufficient regulations in place to assure minimum impact on adjacent properties.
The report specifically identifies the overhead doors, which would face Dixie Highway, and a
special landscape condition is proposed. Based upon positive findings, staff recommends
approval of the conditional use request.
At its meeting of May 21, 2001, the Planning and Zoning Board held a public
heating in conjunction with the requests. After reviewing the staff report and discussing the
proposal, the Board voted 7-0 to recommend that the requests be approved, based upon positive
findings with respect to Chapter 3 (Performance Standards) and Section 2.4.5(D)(5) of the Land
Development Regulations, and policies of the Comprehensive Plan. Mr. Dorling stated there
was a comment by two people. One comment was from the Executive Director of the CRA who
suppqrted the request and the other comment was made by a woman from Kokomo Key who
expressed concern that the whole area did not go to auto uses as like south Federal Highway.
Mr. Dorling stated the rezoning application includes a waiver request to the
following section of the City's Land Development Regulations Section 4.4.10(F)(2)(d), which
requires a minimum lot area of 1.5 acres for the sale, lease, or rental of automobiles, boats,
recreational vehicles, or tracks. The gross site area is 1.81 acres and there is significant
dedication required of this property 20 feet along Dixie Highway and 10 feet along Federal
Highway. With these dedications, this reduces the parcel size to 1.42 acres. Given the extent of
dedications from the property along with the fact that property sizes are usually interpreted based
upon the gross site area, approval of the waiver appears appropriate. The necessary positive
findings for the waiver are listed in the Planning and Zoning Staff Report with respect to LDR
Section 2.4.7(B)(5). The Planning and Zoning Board considered this item at their meeting of
May 21, 2001, and unanimously recommended approval.
Louis Carbone~ 65 N.E. 4th Avenue~ speaking on behalf of Autobahn Motors,
Inc. stated as we all know this property is located in the North Federal Highway corridor. In
1979, the City annexed many of the commercial properties along North Federal Highway and
this property was included in the annexation. Mr. Carbone stated as a result of the annexation,
many of the properties were either non-conforming or had marginal uses. In 1997, the City and
the CRA recognized this area as a "blighted" area especially many of the commercial properties.
There was an intense study similar to the Downtown Charrette held for West Atlantic Avenue
where many citizens were a part of and came up with new ideas for the study. As a result of that
study, the Regional Planning Council was involved and the North Federal Redevelopment Plan
was adopted in March 1999. Mr. Carbone stated this property was operated as a trailer park and
continued to after the annexation and it fell into to major disrepair. There were numerous code
violations, problems with criminal activity on the property, and questions as to whether or not
the property should be condemned. The property was purchased for the purposes of
redevelopment in accordance with the North Federal Highway Plan. Mr. Carbone stated the
Autobahn proposal meets the following objectives of the redevelopment plan:
-18-

Improve the overall appearance of the area.
Most cars will be displayed indoors (high-end luxury cars).
Identify some appropriate uses for areas along North Federal Highway.
Provide economic development and investment in the area (electric cars).
Creation of jobs (15-16 new jobs).
Eliminate "blight" and non-conforming uses.
Mr. Carbone emphasized that this is not a used car dealership but a high-end
luxury style dealership. He stated there are some conditional use protections that are built in to
the application, which include that the building will be of superior standards. The building will
be a nco-classical style building with a loading area that is created on the site which allows for
deliveries to occur on the site rather than to backup traffic on Dixie Highway or North Federal
Highway.
With regard to the waiver request, the overall gross area of the site is 1.8 acres,
which exceeds the 1.5-acre requirement. It is only through the dedications that the property is
reduced to 1.42 acres. In the North Federal Highway Redevelopment Plan it is noted that the
City was asked to work with the Department of Transportation to maybe reduce the right-of-way
requirements. Mr. Carbone stated this has not yet been done so based on the forgoing issues the
waiver is minimal and is warranted.

they have worked with the owner on obtaining a grant from the County. Ms. Dominguez stated
the CRA is matching the grant and feels it is consistent with the North Federal Highway
Redevelopment Plan.

Prior to the roll call, Mayor Schmidt commented that one of the conditions of this
conditional use is that it not impinge on the surrounding neighborhood. Mayor Schmidt stated if
you drive west down N.W. 22nd Street to Northridge Road on Saturdays, he stated he could hear
the name of every person whose car is being serviced at Borton Volvo because he can hear the
loud speakers. According to the agenda backup material there is residential property that is 272
feet away, which is even considerably closer than his house. He expects that there be no loud
speakers so people do not hear the microphone from the service area.

bring the community together). Ms. Beer stated the man who headed the Leadership session was
wonderful and has community programs for each neighborhood association. Ms. Beer

vacancies.
Secondly, Ms. McCarthy stated there is a yellow handbook that can be obtained in
the City Clerk's office that has a description of every committee that one can apply for within the

gathering, Ms. McCarthy stated she is more than willing to give input to someone if they need to
know how to better prepare themselves to be on a particular Board.

unfortunate that there were not more vacancies.

with the Ramblin Rose. Mr. Levinson stated he does not want to see the boat slip vacant for the
three or four months during the summer. The City Manager stated the reason this item was

sure this is in good hands but would like to be reassured that we are looking after these schools

pension situation.
Lastly, Mr. Bennett stated he is concerned with the effort to wind up the Charter
Revision Committee meetings so quickly when not much has been done in the aspect of making
it readable. He feels there has been little effort to make it readable other than one or two phrases
that have been pointed out as being particularly awkward. Mr. Bennett stated the original
schedule called for meetings through November 1st and feels there is plenty of material to be
addressed in the Charter.
11.B.3. Louis Martinez~ 506 Southridee Road, thanked the Commission for speeding up

Barbara Garito, Acting City Clerk, swore in those individuals who wished to give
testimony on this item.
Jeff Costello, Principal Planner, entered into the record the Planning and Zoning
Department project file #2001-174.
The subject property is located on the southwest comer of Pelican Lane and
Ocean Boulevard. The Site Plan Review and Appearance Board (SPRAB) approved a site plan
for Ocean Hammock Townhomes on September 27, 2000. The project, which is currently under
construction, includes 10 townhomes which front on and take access from Pelican Lane.
Pelican Lane has a 40 foot fight-of-way, of which the north 10 feet is located
within the Town of Gulf Stream and th6 south 30 feet, is located within the City of Delray
Beach. Following the site plan approval for Ocean Hammock, the plans for reconstruction of
Pelican Lane were modified to shift the pavement to the south so that the entire paved surface
would be located with the City of Delray Beach.
The waiver was denied by SPRAB on June 20, 2001. The applicant is now
seeking an appeal to the SPRAB action. Staff presented the item to the Board and recommended
denial since there are two additional altematives to providing the sidewalk immediately adjacent
to the curb and gutter, beyond eliminating the sidewalk. The first is to relocate the sidewalk to
the north side of the street within the Town of Gulf Stream. The second alternative is for the
applicant to provide an easement along the north side of the development, adjacent to Pelican
Lane to allow the sidewalk to be located 5feet behind the curb and gutter.
Staff's recommendation is to uphold the decision by the Site Plan Review and
Appearance Board and deny the request for the sidewalk waiver, based upon a failure to make
positive findings with respect to LDR Section 2.4.7(B)(5).
Car3? Glickstein~ President of Ironwood Properties~ stated he is not objecting to
~he sidewalk because it was in the original plan. However, Mr. Glickstein stated the problem
now is they have compressed the area within which to do a lot of the things required for these
homes. Mr. Glickstein stated the sidewalk is not good for this development. There is a very
steep grade change on the property, which has been alleviated to some degree in connection with
improving the drainage improvements on that entire road. In an effort to create a safety area, he
stated in his view what is actually being created is a relatively unsafe condition with quite a bit of
up and down undulation in a relatively short area. Mr. Glickstein reiterated that in trying to
alleviate safety concerns in a general sense, sidewalks are good. However, Mr. Glickstein stated
they are creating some site specific problems which warrant the waiver request. Furthermore,
Mr. Glickstein stated the people that have purchased in this community do not want the
sidewalks.
There being no one else who, having been duly sworn, wished to address the
-12-

judicial hearing, which allows for presentations, the admission of documents into the record and
public testimony.
Barbara Garito, Acting City Clerk, swore in those individuals who wished to give
testimony on this item.
Jeff Costello, Principal Planner, entered into the record the Planning and Zoning
Department project file #2001-167.
Mr. Costello explained that this is a Conditional Use request to establish an Assisted
Living Facility (ALF), Independent Living Facility (ILF), and Adult Day Care for a project
known as Mil-Atlantic. The City Commission on January 5, 1999 previously approved this
development, with an approval period of eighteen (18) months. The facility was not constructed
and a timely extension request was not submitted and the approval has expired.
At its meeting of June 18, 2001, the Planning and Zoning Board held a public
hearing in conjunction with review of the request. No one from the public spoke on the item.
The Board voted 4-0 to recommend that the Conditional Use request to establish an ALF/ILF,
and Adult Day Care for Mil-Atlantic be approved, based upon positive findings with respect to
Chapter 3 (Performance Standards) and Section 2.4.5(E)(5) of the Land Development
Regulations, and policies of the Comprehensive Plan subject to the following revised conditions
of approval:
That the ALF/ILF be limited to 230 units (310 beds), and the Adult Day Care to
fifteen (15) patients;
That a full site plan application be processed pursuant to Section 2.4.5 of the Land
Development Regulations and that it be in general conformance with the sketch
plan;
That a 30' wide road easement be provided parallel to the north property line,
which does not contain any back-out parking; and,
That a wall be provided along the south and west property lines where it abuts the
single-family subdivisions, unless an alternative is suggested by the City
Horticulturist with respect to saving the majority of the trees.
Mr. Costello stated staff is recommending approval of the Conditional Use
request to establish an ALF/ILF, and Adult Day Care for Mil-Atlantic based upon positive
findings with respect to Chapter 3 (Performance Standards), Section 2.4.5(E)(5) of the Land
Development Regulations, and the policies of the Comprehensive Plan subject to the conditions
recommended by the Planning and Zoning Board.

Commissioner Archer
Mrs. Archer stated she had a nice vacation and commented that the biggest
highlight of her vacation was when she was in Atlanta watching the All America City
Presentation. Mrs. Archer stated anyone who has ever said anything about not making the
opportunity to present for the All America City Award has in her opinion never attended a
presentation. She feels just the act of making the presentation (winning or not) is enough to
encourage such pride in our City.
Secondly, Mrs. Archer stated she is very proud of the Delray Beach Youth
Basketball Team players and feels they did a wonderful job. She stated it is such a pleasure to
see so many kids involved in the program and spending their time in a constructive manner by
participating in sports.
Mrs. Archer commented that she would very much like to see the bronze bust of
Spencer Pompey placed at Old School Square since this is the center of our City.

MEETING OF ~ULY 24, 200~ ***CON~ENT AGENDA***
CONSIDERATION OF A REQUEST TO ALLOW A TEMPORARY MODULAR
BUILDING AT ST. PAUL'S EPISCOPAL CHURCH, LOCATED NORTH OF SW
2ND STREET, BETWEEN S. SWINTON AVENUE AND SW 1sT STREET (118 S.
SWINTON AVENUE).
This request is in conjunction with a development proposal for St. Paul's Episcopal Church,
which includes the demolition of an existing 538 square foot utility/office building, the
construction of a 1,524 square foot office addition, and the installation of associated
landscaping. The Class II Site Plan Modification for the proposed improvements is scheduled
for review by the Historic Preservation Board (HPB) at its meeting of August 1, 2001.
The applicant is requesting the placement of one 320 square foot temporary modular building on
the property for use as offices for a period of one (1) year while the proposed building
improvements are constructed.
Permits for a temporary modular building are not included within the list of allowable temporary
uses provided in LDR Section 2.4.6(H)(1), therefore approval of a waiver to allow this use from
the City Commission is required.
Pursuant to LDR Section 2.4.7(B)(5), prior to granting a waiver, the approving body must make
a finding that granting the waiver:
(a) Shall not adversely affect the neighboring area;
(b) Shall not significantly diminish the provision of public facilities;
(c) Shall not create an unsafe situation; and
(d) Does not result in the grant of a special privilege in that the same waiver would be
granted under similar circumstances on other property for another applicant or owner.
The modular building is proposed to be located slightly to the south of the proposed building
addition, and is primarily surrounded by existing buildings and the historic sanctuary. The
modular will not be highly visible from adjacent rights-of-way and/or properties and will not
adversely impact the neighboring area. The modular is being installed within an existing five (5)
space parking area, however there is adequate parking on site excluding these spaces. The
provision of public facilities will not be diminished with the granting of the waiver. The waiver will
not create an unsafe situation or result in a special privilege as similar waivers have been

granted to others. A condition of approval is that the modular unit is removed after a period of
one (1) year from the time of issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy for the modular, or at the
time of issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy for the addition, whichever occurs first.
By motion, approve a Temporary Use Permit for the placement of one (1) modular building to
allow a temporary office facility at St. Paul's Episcopal Church, based upon positive findings with
respect to LDR Section 2.4.7(B)(5), subject to the following conditions:
1. That a site plan modification and Certificate of Appropriateness (COA) be processed
and approval obtained from the Historic Preservation Board, and;
That the modular unit is removed after a period of one (1) year from the time of
issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy for the modular, or at the time of issuance of a
Certificate of Occupancy for the addition, whichever occurs first.

Proof of Claim re: Brock v. Merrill Ly~h
& Co., et al.
The City has received a Notice of Proposed Class Action Settlement and Fairness
Hearing in the above-referenced action. The class action was filed by Collier County in
the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida and concerns the
purchase of U.S. Treasury Securities from certain entities who allegedly conspired to
charge excessive markups on the sale of such securities.
Based on City records, the City has a claim to assert regarding four (4) of its
prior refunding bond series. This claim could be made through the class action process
in the above-referenced case, in which the City would be entitled to a settlement amount
as follows:
(1)
Forty percent (40%) of the net settlement fund will be divided equally
among the total number of all claimants (of which the City is one); and
(2)
Sixty percent (60%) of the net settlement fund will be divided by
authorized claimants (of which the City is one) based on that authorized
claimant's percentage of all claims submitted.
The exact amount of the City's portion of the settlement fund is subject to the
total amount claims and number of claimants and is therefore indeterminate at this time.
The City does have the option to opt-out of the settlement and could pursue its own cause
of action against any individual entities that were associated with the City's four (4)
qualifying claims.
Our office has reviewed the 42-page complaint in this action, which alleges both
state and federal causes of action. Our office would recommend that the City opt-in to
the class action settlement and file its claim through that vehicle rather than undertake
individualized litigation.
Please place this item on the consent agenda for the July 24, 2001 City
Commission meeting. Please call if you have any questions.

AGENDA ITEM # ~r. ~ - REGULAR MEETING OF JULY 24, 2001
REQUEST FOR RELEASE OF LIENS
DATE: JULY 20, 2001
This is before the City Cormmssxon to approve the waiver of liens in the amount of $2,748.50 on 332
~ 11th Avenue. A lien search was requested on the subject property in September 2000, at which
time it was reported that there were eight (8) liens for a total amount of $1,429.28. This amount
represented only a portion of liens on thas property. The $1,429.28 was paid to the City immediately
upon closing of the property. Now the new owner is in the process of reselling the property and has
been noufied by the City that there are five (5) additional outstanding liens totaling $2,748.50.
Based on the fact that it was our error in reporting in September 2000, I am recommending that these
liens be waived.
I recommend the waiver of the outstanding $2,748.50 municipal liens against 332 NW 11th Avenue
and that a release of lien be recorded as soon as possible.

SUBJECT: Release of Liens
Pursuant to the attached letter, Mr. Shendell is requesting the Commission waive the
remaining liens on subject property, in the amount of $2,748.50, which includes interest.
As Mr. Shendell related in his letter, inquiry was made to the City Clerk's Office
regarding lien information on the subject property and only a portion of the liens were
relayed to Mr. Shendell. Those liens were paid off by Mr. Shendell's client. The
property was subsequently sold by Mr. Shendell's client to another owner. When the
new owner attempted to sell the property he was informed of the remaining liens on the
property.
Please place this item on the July 24, 2001 City Commission agenda for consideration.
Please call if you have any questions.

Re: 332 NW 11' Avenue, Dclray Beach
Dear City Commisioners:
Last year this firm represented BMC Mortgage Corporation which acquired the above-
referenced real property through a foreclosure action. As part of our normal due diligence, we
enlisted the services of Florida Tax Service, Inc. who made a lien inquiry of the City of Delray
Beach and paid the required $10.00 fee to the Clerk. At~ched please find a copy oftbe lien
inquiry results signed by Alison MacGregor Harry, City Clerk, and stating in part as Follows:
"Thc City of DeL-ay Beach has filed g liens against the subject
property. The payoff of all is $1,429.28 which is good thru the
month of September, 2000 .... "emphasis added
The sum of $1,429.2g was collected and paid to the City immediately upon closing thc
subject property. The new owner (Aristidis Christo) is in the process of reselling the property.
Mr. Christo has been advised that the City is now alleging that the City is due additional monies
in thc amount of $2,748.50 plus interest for five additional liens which were not disclosed to this
firm last September. In fact, upon inquiry, thc City Clerk has advised us that our request of last
September was improper because we did not make inquiry of each and every owner of record of
thc subject property. Attached please fred the City's July 10, 2001 letter for your convenient
reference.
We are now questioning how this firm is able to reasonably rely on the lien inquiry made
of the City last fall7 The sealed and signed report wc received specifically stated that these are
all amounts due against the property and not against the last two owners of the property. How
would any person be assured that any property located in DeLray Beach was free and clear of
liens if they did not specifically list the names of all titleholders of that property when making an
inquiry of the City Clerk7 The explanation given to us in the City's July 10' letter is
indefensible and unacceptable.

In addition~ by the City Clerk's refusal to acknowledge i~ error, this firm's reputation has
been damaged in the eyes of Mr. Christo, his new buyer and our title insurance underwriter who
all believe that this firm does shoddy work. This is also unacceptable.
We are respectfully requesting that this Commission waive all amounts allegedly now
due as a result of the City Clerk's error since this tirrn reasonably relied upon the information
furnishexi to it by the City Clerk and paid all amounts reported to be due. We are further
requesting that the City Clerk forward letters of apology to this firm, Mr. Christo, his new buyer
and our title insurance urlderwriter acknowledging the City Clerk's error immediately.
Thank you in advance for your immediate a~tcntion to this matter.

Community Development Division's Housing Rehabilitation
Grant Award
ITEM BEFORE THE COMMISSION
Approval is requested for three Housing Rehabilitation grant awards to the lowest
responsive bidders. This request is in accordance with the City's Community
Development Division's approved Policies and Procedures.
BACKGROUND
The grant awards are based on the actual cost of the rehabilitation as determined by the
low bidder plus a 5% contingency. The contingency may be used for change orders and
all unused funds remain with the Housing Rehabilitation grant program.
Inspection of work is done by the Department of Community Improvement's Building
Inspection and Community Development Division. Contracts are executed between the
building contractor and the property owner. The City remains the agent and this office
monitors all work performed by the contractor ensuring compliance according to
specifications and program guidelines. Pay request forms require both contractor and
homeowner's signatures. Grant recipients have met all eligibility requirements as
specified in the approved Policies and Procedures.
The rehabilitation activity will bring the homes to minimum code requirements by
repairing roofs, electric and plumbing systems and correcting other incipient code
violations. Detailed work write-ups and individual case files are available for review at
the Community Development Division Office.
The Community Development Division is responsible for ensuring that the housing
rehabilitation contracts are awarded to the lowest responsible bidder, as a result of a
formal bid process. Therefore, an in-house policy was created to limit awards to the
lowest responsible bidder within 10% of the Division's professional in-house estimate.
This serves to disqualify unreasonable low bids and therefore protect against the resulting
change order requests. This policy further assists the Division with its goal of completing
each rehabilitation activity utilizing the estimated amount of funding required.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends awarding the bids for tl~ee Housing Rehabilitation projects to the
verified responsible low bidders and authorizes awards in the following amount:

MEETING OF JULY 24, 2001
CONSIDERAT,ON OF A COND,T,ONAL USE REQUEST TO ESTABL,SH A 24-HOUR
CHILD CARE FACILITY FOR GRAMMY'S PLACE TO BE LOCATED ON THE
NORTHEAST CORNER OF S. SWlNTON AVENUE AND SE 3"[~ STREET.
The conditional use request is to convert an existing 1,200 square foot residence to a 24-hour child care
facility; construction of a circular driveway for the use as a pick-up/drop off area; conversion of the front
and side yards to an outdoor play area; and, demolition of existing sheds to accommodate construction
of a 4 space paved parking lot. The facility would accommodate 22 children ages 2 - 12, at a time.
Additional background and analysis is found in the attached Planning and Zoning Board Staff Report.
At a public hearing held on June 18, 2001, the Planning and Zoning Board considered the Conditional
Use request. The Board had concerns with respect to the hours of operation at the proposed location
and whether the facility would meet a neighborhood need. Members from the public spoke on the item
and voiced concerns with respect to the use, the hours of operation and the negative affect on property
values. After a lengthy discussion on the hours of operation and how to enforce restricted pick-up and
drop-off hours the Board voted 3-1 (Hasner dissenting and Bird, Stark and Morris absent) to continue the
Conditional Use request for the Grammy's Place to the July 16th meeting, with the following direction:
· That staff contact the Child Resource and Facility Center to see if there is a need for a 24-hour child
care facility in Delray Beach.
At its meeting of July 16, 2001, the Planning and Zoning Board held a public hearing in conjunction with
review of the request. Staff presented additional information concerning the demand as well as a map
which identified five child care facilities within 1,000' of the proposed facility. Staff had recommended
approval of the request. At the meeting, adjacent and residential homeowners expressed concerns with
the proposed conditional use. The specific concerns regarded the potential adverse impact on
surrounding properties with respect to a degradation of property values as a result of the 24-hour child
care facility component. After some discussion the Board voted 5 to 2 (Peltzie and Randolph dissenting)
to recommend that the Conditional Use request be denied based upon a failure to make positive findings
with respect to Section 2.4.5(E)(5) (Compatibility), in that the proposed use will have a significant
detrimental effect on the stability of the neighborhood and will hinder development or redevelopment of
nearby properties.
By motion, deny the Conditional Use request to establish a 24-hour child care facility for Grammy's
Place, based upon a failure to make positive findings with respect to Section 2.4.5(E)(5) (Compatibility),
in that the proposed use will have a significant detrimental effect on the stability of the neighborhood and
will hinder development or redevelopment of nearby properties.

IV.B.
The action before the Board is making a recommendation to the City
Commission on a request for Conditional Use approval to establish a 24-
hour child care facility for Grammy's Place, pursuant to LDR Section
2.4.5(E).
The subject property is located at 245 S. Swinton Avenue, which is on the
northeast corner of S. Swinton Avenue and SE 3r~ Street.
The subject property consists of the south 75 feet of the west % of Block 71, Town of
Delray. The .23 acre property contains a 1,200 square foot residence, which was
constructed in 1946 and has been a residential property since that time.
The property is currently zoned RM (Multiple Family Residential - Medium Density)
which allows child care centers as a Conditional Use. Therefore, a conditional use
application to establish a 24-hour child care facility, which involves the conversion of a
single family residence and is now before the Board for action.
The development proposal includes the following:
· Conversion of a single family residence to a 24-hour child care facility;
· Construction of a circular driveway for the use as a pick-up/drop off area;
· Conversion of the front and side yards to an outdoor play area; and,
· Demolition of existing sheds to accommodate construction of a 4 space paved
parking lot.
The applicant has submitted the following narrative that describes the operation:
Grammy's Place will be a small, homelike childcare center with 22
children. We will not enroll infants under 2 years old. Our service is not a
drop-off babysitting service. Our target clientele is working parents who
have irregular work schedules. Most childcare centers close at 6:00 p.m.,
however, many people work later than that, such as: hospital employees,
firefighters, police officers, and restaurant workers. We are certain that
there is a tremendous need in the community for quality, affordable 24-
hour childcare. When the children are dropped-off, the parents will inform
Planning and Zoning Board Staff Report
Conditional Use Approval - Grammy's Place Child Care Center
Page 2
US of approximately what time they will be returning. We will then be able
to plan accordingly and have their child awake and ready to go without
disturbing the other sleeping children. In addition, it will provide security
for the surrounding neighbors by being fully staffed 24 hours a day.
REQUIRED FINDINGS: (Chapter 3):
Pursuant to Section 3.1.1 (Required Findings), prior to the approval of
development applications, certain findings must be made in a form which is part
of the official record. This may be achieved through information on the
application, the staff report, or minutes. Findings shall be made by the body,
which has the authority to approve or deny the development application. These
findings relate to the following four areas.
FUTURE LAND USE MAP: The use or structures must be allowed in the zone
district and the zoning district must be consistent with the land use designation.
The subject property has a Future Land Use Map designation of MD (Medium Density
Residential 5-12 dwelling units per acre) and is zoned RM (Multiple Family Residential -
Medium Density). The RM zoning district is consistent with the MD Future Land Use
Map designation. Pursuant to LDR Section 4.4.6(D)(3), within the RM zoning district,
child care facilities are allowed as a Conditional Use. Based upon the above, positive
findings can be made with respect to consistency with the Future Land Use Map.
CONCURRENCY: Facilities which are provided by, or through, the City shall be
provided to new development concurrent with issuance of a Certificate of
Occupancy. These facilities shall be provided pursuant to levels of service
established within the Comprehensive Plan.
Water and Sewer:
To date no water and sewer plans have been submitted, however water and sewer
services exist via a service lateral connection to the existing water main within SE 3rd
Street and the existing sewer main which runs along the east side of the subject
property. ^ fire hydrant exists at the southeast corner of S. Swinton Avenue and SE 3rd
Street. No main extensions or upgrades are anticipated with this development
proposal.
The Comprehensive Plan states that adequate water and sewer treatment capacity
exists to meet the adopted level of service at the City's build-out population based on
the current FLUM. Based on the above, this proposal should have little or no impact
with respect to water and sewer service. Therefore, positive findings with respect to this
level of service standard can be made.

Drainage:
Paving and drainage plans are not required for the conditional use analysis. It is
anticipated that drainage will be accommodated via sheet flow to pervious areas and/or
the installation of an exfiltration trench system. However, is noted that there is limited
space that can be utilized for water retention, as the required play area cannot be used
for water retention. If the conditional use request is approved, a paving and drainage
plan must be provided with the submittal of the site plan.
Streets and Traffic:
Pursuant to LDR Section 2.4.3(E)(2), a traffic statement is required for land use
applications that generate 200 or less ADT (Average Daily Trips). A traffic statement
has been submitted which indicates that the proposed use will generate 98 new
average daily trips. Adequate capacity exists on the surrounding roadway network to
accommodate the traffic generated from the proposed use. Based upon the above, a
positive finding with respect to traffic concurrency can be made.
Parks and Open Space:
Park dedication requirements do not apply for nonresidential uses. Thus, there will be
no impact on this level of service standard.
Solid Waste:
The 1,200 sq. f. child care facility will generate 2.1 tons of solid waste per year [1,200
sq. ft. x 3.5 lbs./sq, ff./year = 4,200/2000 = 2.1 tons]. The trash generated by this
proposal can be accommodated by existing facilities. Therefore, a positive finding with
respect to this level of service standard can be made.
CONSISTENCY: Compliance with performance standards set forth in Chapter 3
and required findings in Section 2.4.5(E)(5) for the Conditional Use request shall
be the basis upon which a finding of overall consistency is to be made. Other
objectives and policies found in the adopted Comprehensive Plan may be used in
making a finding of overall consistency.
A review of the objectives and policies of the adopted Comprehensive Plan was
conducted and the following applicable policy was found.
Housing Element Policy A-12.3 - In evaluating proposals for new development or
redevelopment, the City shall consider the effect that the proposal will have on
the stability of nearby neighborhoods. Factors such as noise, odors, dust, traffic
volumes and circulation patterns shall be reviewed in terms of their potential to
negatively impact the safety, habitability and stability of residential areas. If it is
determined that a proposed development will result in a degradation of any
neighborhood, the project shall be modified accordingly or denied.
Planning and Zoning Board Staff Report
Conditional Use Approval - Grammy's Place Child Care Center
Page 4
The proposed use is surrounded by residential properties. In order to limit potential
impacts on the adjacent properties, adequate buffers must be provided for the outdoor
play areas. The proposed play areas will be surrounded with a vinyl coated chain link
fence. As discussed later in the staff report, the height of the fence must be increased
from 4' to 6' and a hedge 4' at the time of planting must be installed and is attached as a
condition of approval.
A 5' landscaped area is provided along the north, east and south perimeters of the
parking area. However, pursuant to LDR Section 4.6.16(H)(3)(e), where commercial
areas abut properties in residential use, one tree shall be planted every 25' to form a
solid tree line. This would be required along the north and east property lines to buffer
noise and lighting from the parking area to the adjacent residences. This item is
attached as a condition of approval.
There is a concern with the proposed 24-hour child care facility as it relates to the
nighttime pick-up and drop-off hours and the potential impact this may cause on
adjacent residential properties. Therefore, an attached condition of approval is that the
pick-up and drop-off hours be limited to 6:00 a.m. - 11:00 p.m. to not cause adverse
impacts on the residential neighborhood. Provided the above conditions of approval are
addressed, the proposed 24-hour child care facility will not have an adverse impact on
the stability of the surrounding neighborhood.
SECTION 2.4.5(E) REQUIRED FINDINGS: (Conditional Use)
Pursuant to Section 2.4.5(E)(5) (Findings), in addition to provisions of Chapter 3,
the City Commission must make findings that establishing the conditional use
will not:
Am
Have a significantly detrimental effect upon the stability of the
neighborhood within which it will be located;
Nor that it will hinder development or redevelopment of nearby
properties.
The subject property is bordered on the north, east and south sides by the RM (Multiple
Family Residential- Medium Density) zoning district and the west by R-1-A (Single
Family Residential) zoning district. Single family homes exist to the north, east, south
(across SE 3rd Street) and west (across S. Swinton Avenue).
As previously discussed compatibility with the adjacent residential properties is a
concern as the proposed 24-hour child care facility will operate during the nighttime
hours. Provided the hours of pick-up and drop-off are limited from 6:00 a.m. to 11:00
p.m. as recommended by staff, the proposed use will not have a significant detrimental
effect upon the stability of the neighborhood, nor will it hinder development or
redevelopment of nearby properties.

COMPLIANCE WITH LAND DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS:
In conjunction with the Conditional Use request a sketch plan was submitted,
which has been reviewed by staff. Based upon staff's review of the sketch plan
and site inspections, the following technical comments have been identified.
Parking
Pursuant to LDR Section 4.6.9(C)(7)(h), child care facilities must provide 1 parking
space per 300 sq.ft, of total floor area. Further, parking is to be designed to enable
vehicles to enter and exit a site in a forward manner.
The 1,200 sq.ft, facility requires 4 parking spaces and 4 have been provided within an
approved parking area on the east side of the structure. Thus, the parking requirement
has been met.
Maneuvering Area:
Pursuant to LDR Section 4.6.9(D)(4)(c), a 24' wide by 6' deep maneuvering areas must
be provided at the end of a dead-end parking bay. At the north end of the proposed
parking area this area has not been provided. The required maneuvering area can be
easily accommodated by relocating the handicapped accessible space to the south end
of the parking area and providing a space underneath the covered patio (See Exhibit A).
An attached condition of approval is that an adequate maneuvering area be provided
and addressed with the site plan application.
LDR 4.3.3(E) - Child Care Facilities
Lot Area:
The minimum lot area required for child care facilities is 7,500 square feet. The total lot
area of the subject property is 10,125 sq. ft., thus this requirement has been met.
Floor Area:
Child care facilities shall contain a minimum floor area of 35 sq. ft. per child, exclusive of
space devoted to bathrooms, halls, kitchen, offices and storage. The structure contains
a total of 1,200 sq. ft. in which 958 sq. ft. is usable floor area thus, allowing a maximum
of 27 children. However, the request is limited to 22 children, based upon the amount of
outdoor play area as discussed below.
Outdoor Area:
There shall be a minimum of 75 sq. ft. of outdoor play area per child. The play area
shall be located on the same lot as the principal use and shall not be located in the front
yard setback or adjacent to any outdoor storage area. A 6' high fence or wall shall
Planning and Zoning Board Staff Report
Conditional Use Approval - Grammy's Place Child Care Center
Page 6
surround the play area. The applicant has provided 1,652 sq. f. of outdoor play area,
allowing a maximum of 22 children, which does not encroach into the 25' front or 15'
side street setback areas. A 4' high chain link fence is proposed around the outdoor
play area along the east, south and west sides. There is an existing 6' high wood fence,
which exists along the north side of the outdoor play area. The height of the chain link
fence must be increased to meet the 6' fence height requirement. Additionally, a hedge
at least 4' high at time of planting must be planted adjacent to the chain link fence.
These items are attached as conditions of approval.
Loading Area:
A pick-up and drop-off area for children shall be provided in a convenient area adjacent
to the building and shall provide clear ingress and egress to the building. A one-way
drop-off/drive aisle is proposed on the south side of the structure, which takes access
off of SE 3rd Street. Thus this requirement has been met.
Provided the conditions of approval are met the application will comply with LDR
Section 4.3.3(E) relating to Child Care Facilities.
Technical Items: While the sketch plan has accommodated most of the staff
concerns the following items remain outstanding, and will need be addressed
with the site plan application:
The Palm Beach County Rules Regulations Governing Child Care Facilities states
that "each child shall have a separate bed or cot". Therefore, a floor plan depicting
the layouts of proposed beds or cots shall be provided.
The development proposal is not located within a geographical area requiring review by
the Downtown Development Authority (DDA).
Community Redevelopment Agency
The CRA Board will review this item at their meeting of June 14, 2001. The CRA
Board's recommendation will be provided at the Planning and Zoning Board meeting.
Site Plan Review and Appearance Board:
If Conditional Use approval is granted, a revised site plan must be submitted
accommodating the concerns raised through the conditional use petition. Final action
on the site plan submittal will rest with the SPRAB (Site Plan Review and Appearance
Board).

AGENDA ITEM:
IV.A. CONDITIONAL USE APPROVAL TO ESTABLISH A 24-
HOUR CHILD CARE FACILITY FOR GRAMMY'S PLACE,
PURSUANT TO LDR SECTION 2.4.5(E) (CONTINUED FROM
THE JUNE 187 2001 MEETING)
At a public hearing held on June 18, 2001, the Planning and Zoning Board considered a
Conditional Use request to establish a 24-hour child care facility for Grammy's Place
located on the northeast corner of S. Swinton Avenue and SE 3rd Street. The Board
had concerns with respect to the hours of operation at the proposed location and
whether the facility would meet a neighborhood need. Members from the public spoke
on the item and voiced concerns with respect to the use, the hours of operation and the
negative affect on property values. After a lengthy discussion on the hours of operation
and how to enforce restricted pick-up and drop-off hours the Board voted 3-1 (Hasner
dissenting and Bird, Stark and Morris absent) to continue the Conditional Use request
for the Grammy's Place to the July 16th meeting, with the following direction:
· That staff contact the Child Resource and Facility Center to see if there is a need for
a 24ohour child care facility in Delray Beach.
Staff contacted the Palm Beach County Health Department regarding the demand for a
24ohour child care facility in Delray Beach. The Health Department indicated that a 24-
hour child care facility does not currently exist in Delray Beach. However, the Health
Department has recently approved a request for a 24-hour child care facility for Planet
Kids in Lake Worth, opening in August.
Staff prepared a map (copy attached) which identifies existing child care facilities, within
a 2,000 foot radius of the proposed facility. There are currently five (5) existing child
care facilities within 1,000 feet of the subject property. These facilities operate between
the hours of 6:30 a.m. and 5:30 p.m. Monday through Friday. Staff's analysis indicated
that there are no child care facilities within a 1,000 foot and 2,000 foot radius of the
subject property. It is noted, however the Stepping Stone child care facility, which is
located on SW 6th Avenue (outside of the 2,000 foot radius) currently operates until
11:00 p.m. and they have 8-12 children enrolled in a nighttime care program. The
owner of the facility stated that they currently have a waiting list for enrollment in the
nighttime care program as a result of the large demand for this type of service.
Additional background and complete analysis of the conditional use request is found in
the attached Planning and Zoning Board Staff Report of June 18, 2001. Since the
Planning and Zoning Board meeting, petitions in support of and opposition to the
request have been submitted and are also attached.

· I
The proposed conditional use is for the establishment of a 24-hour child care facility.
The proposed child care center is to be located within an existing single family
residence within a residential area along a City Collector Roadway (Swinton Avenue).
Provided the conditions of approval specifically relating to the hours of pick-up and
drop-off are met there should be no compatibility issues associated with the proposed
development. Staff has identified that there is a demand for a 24-hour child care facility
within the City and that this facility would meet the needs of the surrounding
neighborhood. The proposed use is consistent with the policies of the Comprehensive
Plan and Chapter 3 of the Land Development Regulations. Positive findings can be
made with respect to Section 2.4.5(E)(5) regarding compatibility of the proposed use
with surrounding properties.

The action before the Board is making a recommendation to the City Commission on a
Conditional Use request to allow the residential density to exceed twelve (12) units per
acre for properties located in the West Atlantic Avenue Overlay District. The request is
for Atlantic Grove, a proposed mixed-use development to be located north of Atlantic
Avenue, between NW 3rd and NW 5th Avenues. The proposed density is 16.54 units per
acre.
B'ACKGROUND
The CRA began assembling property for redevelopment of the North 300 and 400
Blocks of West Atlantic Avenue (Blocks 28 & 36) in 1998. After completing acquisition in
2000, it was determined that the best redevelopment scenario for the blocks was a
mixed-use development. A Request for Proposals (RFP) for the project was issued on
March 1,2000 with the following project description:
Development of a mixed-use redevelopment project, preferably with the building
on the street, with retail or restaurant(s) on the first floor and offices, hotel and/or
residential above. Parking would be situated behind the building. A mid-block
pedestrian access to the rear parking would also be desirable.
Discussions with developers during the RFP process indicated that at least some of the
proposals were going to include housing as a major component that would extend into
the rear of the 300 block. In order to accommodate this type of development on the
block, the CRA requested that the City initiate a FLUM amendment and rezoning to
General Commercial. The City Commission approved the FLUM amendment and
rezoning on December 5, 2000.
The CRA received four responses to its Request for Proposals. The following is a brief
description of each proposal:
Centre Court of Delray Beach: The development proposal consisted of 146 rental
apartments and 66,000 square feet of retail/office uses. The site plan had four 4-
stow buildings fronting Atlantic Avenue, and two 4-story residential buildings fronting
NW 3rd Avenue. Parking was available in two 3-level parking garages--one for use
exclusively by residents, and another shared by the commercial uses and Mt. Olive
church.
The Racquet Club of Delray. The development proposal consisted of 85
townhouses, 35 apartments, and 24,060 sq. ft. commercial space. The site plan had
two 3-story retail/residential buildings fronting Atlantic Avenue and 3-story
apartmentJtownhouse buildings located at rear of the commercial building between
NW 3rd and NW 4th Avenues. Parking was available in surface lots, under the
mixed-use buildings, along NW 1st Street, and within the townhouse garages and
driveways.
Atlantic Grove: The development proposal consisted of 62 townhouses and 72,000
sq. ft. office and retail space. The site plan had two 3-story commercial buildings
Planning and Zoning Board Staff Report
Conditional Use Request- Atlantic Grove
Page 2
fronting Atlantic Avenue and 3-story townhouses located behind the commercial
building, between NW 3rd and NW 4th Avenues. Parking was available on surface
lots, along the streets, and within townhouse garages and driveways.
Phoenix Place: The development proposal consisted of 52 loft apartments, 46
townhouses and 29,000 sq. ft. retail/office/restaurant. The site plan had two 3-story
residential/commercial buildings fronting on Atlantic Avenue and 3-story townhouses
located behind the commercial building between NW 3rd and NW 4th Avenues.
Parking was available in surface lots, along the streets, and within townhouse
garages and driveways.
Prior to the ranking the proposals, the CRA held three meetings to allow the public to
learn about the proposals. At the first community meeting, held at Pompey Park on July
27, 2000, development teams presented their projects and answered questions from the
CRA, the West Atlantic Redevelopment Coalition and the community. The second
meeting, a joint workshop between the City Commission, the CRA Board and WARC
held on August 8, 2000, provided a review of the projects by the CRA Chairman and an
additional question and answer session with the development teams. The third, a public
hearing, held in conjunction with a regularly scheduled CRA meeting on August 24,
2000, provided a forum for the public to bring forward their comments about the
respective projects and allow for final CRA Board questions.
On September 14, 2000 the CRA Board ranked the four proposals. Atlantic Grove
Partners, consisting of New Urban Communities Corporation, Delray Beach Community
Development Corporation and the Center for Technology, Enterprise and Development,
Inc. ("TED Center"), was chosen as the number one ranked development team.
In February, 2001, the CRA approved the sales contract and associated agreement to
allow the proposal to go through the development review process. In April 2001, a
conditional use application to allow a residential density in excess of 12 units per acre
and an application for Site Plan approval were submitted for the project.
On May 21, 2001, the Planning and Zoning Board continued this item at the request of
the applicant. The applicant stated that additional time was needed to address

CONDITIONAL USE~ ANALYSIS
REQUIRED FINDINGS:
LDR (Chapter 3) PERFORMANCE STANDARDS:
Pursuant to Section 3.1.1 (Required Findings), prior to approval of Land Use
applications, certain findings must be made in a form which is part of the official
record. This may be achieved through information on the application, written
materials submitted by the applicant, the staff report, or minutes. Findings shall
be made by the body which has the authority to approve or deny the development
application. These findings relate to the following four areas.
FUTURE LAND USE MAP: The resulting use of land or structures must be
allowed in the zoning district within which the land is situated and said zoning
must be consistent with the applicable land use designation as shown on the
Future Land Use Map.
With one exception noted below, the subject property has a Future Land Use Map
designation of GC (General Commercial) and a zoning designation of GC (General
Commercial). The zoning district is consistent with the Future Land Use Map
designation. Commercial uses such as retail, offices and mixed-use residential
development up to twelve (12) units per acre are permitted in the GC district. The 16.54
units per acre residential component of the project may be permitted as a Conditional
Use pursuant to LDR Section 4.4.9 (G)(1)(h). It is noted that one of the subject parcels
has a FLUM designation of LD (Low Density Residential 0-5 alu/acre) and is currently
zoned R-1-A (Single Family Residential). The parcel is located in the rear of Block 28
and is surrounded by the Mount Olive church and parking lots. It is proposed to be
developed for off-street parking. Rezoning of the property to CF (Community Facilities)
and an associated Conditional Use request are currently being processed to
accommodate the use. The proposed CF zoning will be consistent with the current
FLUM designation. Based on the above, positive findings can be made regarding
consistency of the FLUM designations and zonings.
CONCURRENCY: Facilities which are provided by, or through, the City shall be
provided to new development concurrent with issuance of a Certificate of
Planning and Zoning Board Staff Report
Conditional Use Request- Atlantic Grove
Page 4
Occupancy. These facilities shall be provided pursuant to levels of service
established within the Comprehensive Plan.
Water and Sewer:
Preliminary engineering plans have been submitted and the following is noted:
· Water service will be provided to the site via an 8" main that is located along the east
side of NW 3rd Avenue, and an 8" main located along the north side of NWIst Street.
Sewer service will be provided to the site via sewer mains that are located along the
south side of NW 1st Street, along the east side of NW 4th Avenue and along the east
side of NW 5th Avenue.
Pursuant to the City's Comprehensive Plan, treatment capacity is available at the City's
Water Treatment Plant and the South Central County Waste Water Treatment Plant for
the City at build-out, and can service the proposed residential units and commercial
development. Based upon the above, positive findings can be made with respect to
these level of service standards.
Drainage:
The preliminary engineering plans indicate that drainage will be accommodated via an
exfiltration system located beneath the parking lots and access drives. Exfiltration test
results will be required prior to obtaining a building permit for the paving and drainage
system. However, no problems are anticipated in accommodating on-site drainage in
this manner. Thus, positive findings with respect to this level of service standard can be
made. ~
Streets and Traffic:
The subject property is located in the City's TCEA (Traffic Concurrency Exception
Area), which encompasses the CBD, CBD-RC, and OSSHAD zoning districts, as well
as the West Atlantic Avenue corridor. The TCEA was established in December, 1995 to
aid in the revitalization of downtown, with a purpose of reducing the adverse impacts of
transportation concurrency requirements on urban infill development and
redevelopment. These revitalization efforts are achieved by exempting development
within the TCEA from the requirements of traffic concurrency. With establishment of the
TCEA, it was acknowledged that the roadways within the downtown area would
experience increased congestion and operate at a lower level of service than allowed
elsewhere in the City. It is also noted that if the proposed development was outside the
TCEA area, the residential component would still be exempt from traffic concurrency
under the Palm Beach Traffic Performance Ordinance, which provides exemptions for
infill residential developments east of 1-95.
While additional traffic will result from the project, it is anticipated that it will be mitigated
in part by future residents finding alternative routes (via the street grid system) to avoid
the congestion of Atlantic Avenue. It is also noted that construction of new housing in
Planmng and Zoning Board Staff Report
Conditional Use Request - Atlantic Grove
Page 5
the downtown area will foster a development mix that is less auto dependent. Based on
the above, positive findings with respect to this level of service standard can be made.
Parks and Open Space:
Park dedication requirements do not apply for the nonresidential uses (retail/office
component of the project). The Open Space and Recreation Element of the
Comprehensive Plan indicates in its conclusion that "The City will have sufficient
recreation facilities at build-out to meet the adopted standards". A park impact fee is
collected to offset any impacts that the project may have on the City's recreational
facilities. Pursuant to LDR Section 5.3.2, a park impact fee of $500.00 per dwelling unit
will be collected prior to issuance of a building permit for each unit. A total fee of
$37,500 will be required of this development for parks and recreation purposes. Based
on the above, positive findings with respect to this level of service standard can be
made.
Solid Waste:
Trash generated each year by the 8,680 sq. ft. retail space will be 44.27 tons of solid
waste [8,680 sq. ft. x 10.2 lbs. = 88,536 lbs./2000 = 44.27 tons]. Trash generated each
year by the 36,282 sq. ft. of office space will be 97.96 tons of solid waste [36,282 sq. ft.
x 5.4 lbs.: 195,922.8 lbs/2000 - 97.96 tons]. Trash generated each year by the 2,894
sq. ft. of restaurant space will be 36.03 tons of solid waste [2,894 sq. ft. x 24.9 lbs.:
72,060.6 lbs/2000 = 36.03 tons. Trash generated each year by the 75 units will be 39
tons of solid waste [75 units x .52 tons of solid waste per year = 39 tons]. The mixed-
use development will generate a total of 217.26 tons of solid waste per year. The Solid
Waste Authority indicates that it has capacity to serve development in the County at its
current LOS of 7.2 pounds per day per capita for the life of the existing landfill
(approximately 2021). The increased solid waste generated by this project can be
accommodated by existing facilities. Therefore, a positive finding with respect to this
level of service standard can be made.
CONSISTENCY: Compliance with performance standards set forth in Chapter 3
and required findings in Section 2.4.5(E)(5) for the Conditional Use request shall
be the basis upon which a finding of overall consistency is to be made. Other
objectives and policies found in the adopted Comprehensive Plan may be used in
making a finding of overall consistency.
A review of the objectives and policies of the adopted Comprehensive Plan was
conducted and the following applicable objectives and policies that are relevant to the
Conditional Use application (increase in density) were found:
Future Land Use Element Objective A-f . Property shall be developed or redeveloped
in a manner so that the future use and intensity is appropriate and complies in terms of
soil, topographic, and other applicable physical considerations, is complimentary to
adjacent/and uses, and fulfills remaining land use needs.
Prior to acquisition by the CRA, the property was developed and contained several
commercial and residential buildings. Subsequently, the CRA demolished all of the
Planning and Zoning Board Staff Report
Conditional Use Request - Atlantic Grove
Page 6
buildings fronting West Atlantic Avenue in the 400 block and several residential
buildings fronting on the side streets in the 300 block. Only three structures remain at
this time, two of which are vacant. There are no special physical or environmental
characteristics of the land that would be negatively impacted by the proposed mixed-
use development. There is a large 50" Strangler Fig on the property, which the
applicant proposes to relocate elsewhere on the site, if feasible. The proposed
development will be complimentary with surrounding land uses and provide an
additional customer base for downtown businesses which provides economic stability
for the area.
In terms of fulfilling remaining land use needs, the Housing Element of the
Comprehensive Plan states:
One of the most important objectives of the City's overall housing policy is the
establishment of housing in the downtown area. In the years since adoption of the 1989
Comprehensive Plan the downtown has changed from a somewhat sleepy, seasonally
oriented shopping district to a vibrant year-round retail, service, and entertainment area
with an active nightlife. A critical missing element is a significant housing development.
The City recognizes the importance of providing housing in close proximity to shopping,
employment, and transportation, and the need to have a residential base to support the
businesses in the downtown area.
The proposed Atlantic Grove project will provide 75 residential units along with retail,
office and restaurant space. The mixed-use concept is consistent with the goal of
accommodating a variety of uses within the downtown area, particularly those that
include a residential component. The provision of commercial uses will help to increase
the employment base, and the residential units will help to support existing retail,
service, and restaurant uses in the area, which are still somewhat affected by a
seasonal clientele. The project will help to fulfill this stated land use need, and is
therefore consistent with this policy.
Future Land Use Element Policy C-1.5: The following pertains to the Atlantic Avenue
Redevelopment Area:
This area extends in a corridor along Atlantic Avenue eastward from 1-95 to Swinton
Avenue. The present land uses in this area include single family homes, duplexes,
mini-parks, commercial uses along Atlantic Avenue and NW 5th Avenue, and scattered
vacant parcels.
The West Atlantic Avenue Redevelopment Plan was adopted by the City Commission
on July 11, 1995. The plan establishes Future Land Use Map designations, zonings,
special development standards, and design guidelines for the Redevelopment Area.
Future development in the area must be in accordance with the provisions of the
redevelopment p/an.
Adoption of the Redevelopment Plan represents Phase I of the redevelopment strategy
for the area. Phase I/consists of an economic development strategy to be developed
by the CRA, based on the Redevelopment Plan, and a market study. The economic
development strategy wi//be completed by Fiscal Year 97/98.
Planning and Zoning Board Staff Report
Conditional Use Request - Atlantic Grove
Page 7
The West Atlantic Avenue Redevelopment Plan was amended November 7, 2000 to
include specific recommendations for redevelopment of the subject property. These
recommendations included changing the FLUM designation and zoning on the rear half
of Block 36 to General Commercial in order to accommodate a mixed-use development
concept including multi-family housing. The redevelopment concept for the North 300-
400 blocks is stated as follows:
It is anticipated that the blocks will be redeveloped with new structures fronting
West At/antic and would be a mixture of uses, including retail, office, and
residentiaL
The proposed Atlantic Grove development is completely consistent with this
redevelopment concept.
Housing Element Objective B-2. Redevelopment and the development of new land
shall result in the provision of a variety of housing types which shall continue to
accommodate the diverse makeup of the City's demographic profile, and meet the
housing needs identified in this Element. Policies, which will implement this objective,
#~clude:
Housing Element Policy B-2.2 - The development of new adult oriented communities
within the City is discouraged. New housing developments shall be designed to
accommodate households having a range of ages, especially families with children, and
shall be required to provide 3 and 4 bedroom units and activity areas for children
ranging from toddlers to teens. This requirement may be waived or modified for
residential development located in the downtown area, and for infill projects having
fewer than 25 units.
This project will not be limited to occupancy by adults only. However, it is acknowledged
that downtown dwellings are not typically occupied by households with children. As
allowed by this policy, it is appropriate that there not be a requirement to provide 4
bedroom units and activity areas for children.
Housing Element Policy B-2.6 - Housing in and near the downtown area, in close
proximity to employment opportunities and services, is a critical need. In order to help
stimulate demand for new housing in and around the Central Business District, the
development of new rental housing projects outside of the TCEA and North Federal
Highway area, and Lindell/Federal Highway area (formally Redevelopment Area #6) is
discouraged.
The development proposal complies with this policy by meeting the critical need of
providing new housing within the downtown area.
Housing Objective A-12 - To assist residents of the City in maintaining and enhancing
their neighborhood environment, the City shall take steps to ensure that modifications in
and around the neighborhood do not lead to its decline, such as those described in the
following policies.
Planning and Zoning Board Staff Report
Conditional Use Request- Atlantic Grove
Page 8
Housing Policy A-'!2.3 In evaluating proposals for new development or
redevelopment, the City shall consider the effect that the proposal will have on the
stability of nearby neighborhoods. Factors such as noise, odors, dust, traffic volumes
and circulation pattems shall be reviewed in terms of their potential to negatively impact
the safety, habitability and stability of residential areas. If it is determined that a
proposed development will result in a degradation of any neighborhood, the project
shall be modified accordingly or denied.
This project is located in the first block off of West Atlantic Avenue. West Atlantic
Avenue frontage development is predominantly commercial, recreational (tennis center)
or governmental in nature. The proposed commercial/residential buildings are located
between the Tennis Center and Fire Station. The townhouses are located between the
Tennis Center and the Greater Mount Olive Missionary Baptist Church. The nearest
residential neighborhood is located north of NW 1st Street. Once construction is
complete, the development will not create any noise, odors or dust which would impact
this neighborhood. While the project may add some traffic in this area, most of the
traffic will utilize West Atlantic Avenue. Therefore, the impact will be negligible and will
not affect the stability of the neighborhood. In terms of safety, placing a residential
component in the project will likely improve the stability of the area. It will introduce
more night time activity, and more "eyes" to observe what is happening in the area,
which should be a deterrent to criminal activity.
Open Space and Recreation Element Policy A.3. f - Tot lots and recreation areas
serving children from toddlers to teens, shall be a feature of all new housing
developments as part of the design to accommodate households having a range of
ages. This requirement may be waived or modified for residential developments located
in the downtown area, and for infill projects having fewer than 25 units.
This policy may be waived for projects in the downtown area because the City
recognizes that households located in the downtown area are likely to have fewer
children than those located in suburban settings; and, that there are other cultural and
recreational opportunities located nearby that are not readily available to residents of
suburban neighborhoods.
Some of the recreational, cultural, and open space opportunities located in proximity to
Atlantic Grove include: the Community Center, located 2 blocks to the east, which
contains a gymnasium and instructional classes for a wide variety of leisure activities;
Pompey Park, located 6 blocks to the west, which includes a large playground, athletic
fields, pool and gymnasium; Veteran's Park, located eleven blocks to the east, which
includes a large playground and recreational area; the Atlantic Ocean, approximately 1
mile to the east; the City's Tennis Center, adjacent to the project; Old School Square
Cultural center, located 3 blocks to the east; and the Spady Museum, located 2 blocks
to the west. Based on the above, it is appropriate to waive this requirement. It is noted,
however, that the project does include a swimming pool and cabana for its residents.
REQUIRED FINDINGS RELATED TO INCREASE IN DENSITY
Pursuant to LDR Section 4.4.9(G)(1)(h), density may exceed 12 units per acre only
after the approving body makes a finding that the project has substantially
Planning and Zoning Board Staff Report
Conditional Use Request - Atlantic Grove
Page 9
complied with the performance standards listed below, the West Atlantic Avenue
Redevelopment Plan, required findings of Section 2.4.5(E), and applicable
standards of the Comprehensive Plan and Land Development Regulations.
(1) The development offers variation in design to add interest to the elevations
and relief from the building mass. For example, the building setbacks or
planes of the facade are offset and varied. In structures having more than two
stories, stepping back of the upper stories (third floor and above) is
encouraged to decrease the perception of bulk. Building elevations
incorporate several of the following elements: diversity in window and door
shapes and locations; features such as balconies, arches, porches; and
design elements such as shutters, window mullions, quoins, decorative tiles,
or similar distinguishing features.
The applicant's statement on how the project meets this standard is as follows:
The development offers variation in design to add interest to the elevations and relief
from the building mass in a number of ways:
Two different three story townhouse models are offered within each building. The
smaller unit is 33;8" deep and the larger unit is 37'-0" deep, creating an offset in
each building. Four, six, eight and nine unit buildings are provided.
· Two different balcony types are offered.
· Varying architectural shutters are provided.
· Varying window sizes and styles by floor.
· Varying lengths of buildings are offered.
· Dormers are provided on the third story.
· Stucco and foam banding and details are provided.
· Varying exterior railing
· Varying exterior body and trim colors within buildings.
The condominium units on the third story of the commercial buildings provide yet
another distinct residential alternative.
The planes of the front facade of the townhouses are varied with the end unit(s)
offset by 3'-4". A wide smooth stucco base and two 6" stucco bands are provided
around the building, one on the first floor and one below the windows on the 3~ floor.
A raised stucco eave trim has been applied around the building, below the roof
overhang. As noted in the applicant's statement, architectural features are varied on
the building to visually separate the units. Although the third floor has not been
stepped back, a hip roof has been utilized on the building to minimize the building
height on the side elevations. The project has substantially met this standard.
(2) If the building includes a parking garage as an associated structure or within
the principal building, the garage elevation provides unified design elements
with the main building through the use of similar building materials and color,
vertical and horizontal elements, and architectural style. The garage is
designed in a manner that obscures parked vehicles except in places where
unavoidable, such as entrances and exits. Development of a portion of the
Planning and Zoning Board Staff Report
Conditional Use Request - Atlantic Grove
Page 10
ground floor perimeter adjacent to street rights of way is devoted to window
displays or floor area for active uses such as retail stores, personal and
business service establishments, entertainment, offices, etc., is encouraged.
This standard relates to structured parking and is not applicable to the proposed
project.
(3) A number of different unit types, sizes and floor plans are available within the
development. Two and three bedroom units are encouraged, as are a
combination of multi-level units and fiats. In projects consisting of more than
twelve (12) dwelling units, the proportion of efficiency or studio type units may
not exceed 25% of the total units. There is no maximum percentage
established for projects having twelve (12) or fewer units, however, a mix of
unit types and sizes is encouraged.
The applicant's statement on how the project meets this standard is as follows:
Different unit types and floor plans are provided. Two and three bedroom units are
provided. End unit models will have additional windows. All townhouse units have
two car garages, as required by the CRA Board.
The project has a mix of 2 and 3 bedroom townhouse units. There are (24) 3
bedroom units and (31) 2-bedroom units. The (20) 2-bedroom condominium units
rd
are located on the 3 floor of the commercial buildings. Although floor plans have
not been submitted for the condominium units, their overall size and configuration
are varied. The project has met this standard.
(4) The interiors of the dwelling units provide unique features and conveniences
that distinguish them from standard multi-family projects and create an
attractive living environment. Examples of some of the features that could be
incorporated to meet this standard are: ceiling heights of 9 feet or greater;
extensive use of natural lighting; panel doors throughout the interior; use of
decorative molding for baseboard, door and window casings; wood or ceramic
tile flooring in all or a portion of the units; built in cabinetry and/or shelving;
arched entryways or passageways; individual laundry facilities; special
security features; or a combination of similar features and elements that meet
the intent of this standard.
The applicant's statement on how the project meets this standard is as follows:
The interiors of the townhomes will have numerous unique features:
9'-0" ceilings are provided on all floors. Tile will be standard in foyers and kitchens
and the master bath. Built in cabinetry will be provided in the kitchen and baths. The
units will be constructed of concrete block and have a concrete floor system. A third
floor laundry is provided. Interior units ceilings are vaulted. A walk in closet is
provided in the master bedroom. A downstairs library is offered. A covered balcony
is offered on the second floor, off of the great room. All units will have fire sprinklers.
Planning and Zoning Board Staff Report
Conditional Use Request- Atlantic Grove
Page 11
Based on the applicant's statement, the project has met this standard.
(5) The development provides common areas and/or amenities for residents such
as swimming pools, exercise rooms, storage rooms or lockers, covered
parking, gardens, courtyards, or similar areas and/or amenities.
The applicant's statement on how the project meets this standard is as follows:
The common area includes a pool, cabana, and a gated entry gate coming into the
development. An attempt will be made to relocate the large 50" Strangler Fig located
on the property to a prominent location adjacent to the pool~cabana area.
In addition to the above, two car garages are provided for all townhouse units. The
front yards of the townhouse units include a decorative fence and landscaped
entrance area. Each townhouse unit has a private entry. Since this is a mixed-use
project, residents will have easy access to the commercial businesses, including
restaurant(s), which will locate in the frontage buildings. The project has met this
standard.
(6) The development promotes pedestrian movements by providing convenient
access from the residential units to the public sidewalk system. Pedestrian
areas adjacent to the building are enhanced by providing additional sidewalk
area at the same level as the abutting public sidewalk. Accessways to parking
areas are designed in a manner that minimizes conflicts between vehicles and
pedestrians. The public street or streets immediately adjacent to the
development are enhanced in a manner that is consistent with the streetscape
on West Atlantic Avenue.
The applicant's statement on how the project meets this standard is as follows:
An extensive interior and exterior sidewalk system is provided connecting residents
to the surrounding streets. Pedestrian-vehicle conflicts are minimized by the use of
rear loaded garages. The public streets around the site perimeter are being
enhanced by the creation of ne'~¥ on-street parallel parking, sidewalks and
landscaping.
The project has partially met this standard. Paverbrick sidewalks are proposed
around the corners from West Atlantic Avenue to the driveway entrances. Concrete
sidewalks are proposed for the remainder of the project and information regarding
street lighting has not been provided. The streetscape surrounding the entire project
should incorporate decorative lighting, paverbrick sidewalks and landscaping to
match West Atlantic Avenue. This will also fulfill the CPA's goal to continue the
Atlantic Avenue streetscape improvements along the side streets. This has been
attached as a condition of approval.
(7) The development provides opportunities
driveways, etc., with adjoining properties,
spaces that may be used by the public.
to shars parking, accessways,
or provides additional parking
Planning and Zoning Board Staff Report
Conditional Use Request - Atlantic Grove
Page 12
The applicant's statement on how the project meets this standard is as follows:
302 parking spaces are required for the overall development. A total of 385 parking
spaces are being provided between on street, off street and garage parking, which
will provide opportunities for the public to use some of the excess spaces at various
points during the day.
This project maximizes opportunities for shared parking. The parking lot behind the
commercial buildings will be shared by the commercial uses and guests of the
townhouse units. A gate will be provided through the fence to allow access to the
townhouse area. The parking lots are also connected to the exterior sidewalk system
which provides access to most of the units. The project also includes the
construction of 72 on-street parking spaces on the roadways surrounding the
project. These spaces will be available to the general public as well as guests of the
residents. The project has met this standard.
(8) Nonresidential ground floor space has ceilings not less than ten (10) feet in
height. For buildings fronting on West Atlantic Avenue, NW 5th Avenue, or
SW 5th Avenue, at least fifty percent (50%) of the surface area of the front
street wall(s) at the ground floor of each such building is devoted to display
windows and to entrances to commercial uses from outside the building.
The applicant's statement on how the project meets this standard is as follows:
First floor non residential space has ceiling heights of 12'. Well in excess of 50% of
the facade area is devoted to windows and entrances.
The project has met this standard.
Based on the above analysis, a positive finding can be made that the project
substantially complies with the performance standards necessary to support the
increase in density. It is noted however, that the Atlantic Avenue streetscape
(paverbrick sidewalk system, decorative street lights, etc.,) must be installed along the
slde streets adjacent to this project.
SECTION 2.4.5(E) REQUIRED FINDINGS: (Conditional Use)
Pursuant to Section 2.4.5(E)(5) (Findings), in addition to provisions of Chapter 3,
the City Commission must make findings that establishing the conditional use
will not:
A. Have a significantly detrimental effect upon the stability of the
neighborhood within which it will be located;
B. Nor that it will hinder development or redevelopment of nearby
properties.
The proposed project is located on the North 300 and 400 blocks of West Atlantic
Avenue. A mixed retail/office/residential building is proposed for the frontage of both
Planning and Zoning Board Staff Report
Conditional Use Request - Atlantic Grove
Page 13
blocks. Townhouse units will be located behind the commercial frontage building on the
300 block. The proposed residential density is 16.54 units per acre. Conditional Use
approval is required for the density to exceed 12 units per acre. This area of West
Atlantic Avenue contains a significant amount of governmental and community facilities,
including the City Tennis Center immediately to the east, Greater Mount Olive
Missionary Baptist Church complex immediately to the west and the South County
Courthouse, across Atlantic Avenue to the south. Immediately north of the project is
single-family residential development and a proposed church. These uses are
compatible with the proposed project.
Pursuant to LDR Section 4.4.9(G)(1)(h), any residential development within the overlay
district exceeding 12 du/acre must substantially comply with the listed performance
standards. These standards are in place to ensure that the increased density does not
have a negative impact on the quality of the project or the surrounding area. The
additional density sought for this project is 4.54 units per acre and equates to 21
additional units. The design of the project is such that the higher intensity mixed-use
buildings are confined to the West Atlantic Avenue frontage and the townhouses are
placed in the rear. The townhouse units are oriented with the front entrances facing the
street and the garages facing the interior of the project. The residential character of the
street will be enhanced by the provision of decorative fencing, landscaping, and
sidewalks that connect the units to the public sidewalk. This arrangement puts a better
face on the project and makes the statement that the project is part of the community.
On-street parking spaces will be provided surrounding the project for guests of the
residents as well as the general public. In terms of safety, orienting the townhouses in
this manner will introduce more night time activity, and more "eyes" to observe what is
happening in the area, which should be a deterrent to criminal activity. The project as a
whole will have a very positive impact on neighborhood stability.
Atlantic Grove is the first major private redevelopment project on West Atlantic Avenue.
As such, it makes the statement that the area has finally "arrived" and private
investment is on the way. This will have a very positive impact on the redevelopment
potential of the entire corridor.
Based on the above, positive findings can be made that the proposed use will not have
an adverse impact on the surrounding area or hinder development or redevelopment of
nearby properties.
COMPLIANCE WITH LAND DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS:
In conjunction with the Conditional Use request a site plan and building
elevations were submitted which were reviewed by staff. If the Conditional Use is
approved, a full site plan submittal complying with LDR Section 2.4.3 will be
required. Based upon staff's review of plans and site inspections, the following
analysis is provided.
Parking Requirements:
The development proposal includes 55 townhouse units, 20 condominium units, 8,680
sq. ft. of retail space, 36,282 sq. ft. of office space and 2,894 sq. ft. of restaurant space.
Planning and Zoning Board Staff Report
Conditional Use Request- Atlantic Grove
Page 14
The parking requirements for a mixed-use project located in the West Atlantic Overlay
District are calculated as follows:
Step 1:
The base parking requirements for each use in the project are determined
individually. These are shown in the following table:
Base Parking Requirements
Use Parking Requirement Spaces Required
Residential Units
(55) Townhouse units 2 spaces per unit 110.0
(20) Condo Units 2 spaces per unit 40.0
Guest Parking
Units 1-20 5 per unit 10 0
Units 21-50 3 per unit 9.0
Umts 51-75 .2 per unit 5.0
Total 24.0
Retail Space
8,680 sq ff 1 space per 300 sq. ff. 28.93
Office Space
36,282 sq ft 1 space per 300 sq. ft. 120.94
Restaurant Space
2,894 sq. ft. 6 spaces per 1,000 sq. ft. 17.36
Step 2:
Pursuant to LDR Section 4.6.9(C)(8)(a) Shared Parking, the minimum parking
requirement for buildings in the GC district which contain both residential and
commercial uses is determined by the peak parking demand period. The
peak demand period for the Atlantic Grove project is 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM.
The applicable percentage demand for each use during that time period is
60% for residential, 70% for the commercial/retail, 100% for the offices, and
50% for the restaurant. These percentages are applied to the base
requirements for each use in the project as follows:
Mixed-Use Shared Parkin.cl Reauirements
Use Base Requirement % Shared Requirement
Residential 64 60% 38 4
(Condos & Guests)
Retail Space 28.93 70% 20.25
Office Space 120.94 100% 120 94
Restaurant 17.36 50% 8.68
Sub-Total 189
Townhouses Garages (not shared) I 110
Total Parking RequirementI 299
The total number of parking spaces required is 299. The project provides 313 spaces
on-site and 72 spaces on street. Although the on-street spaces cannot be counted
Planning and Zoning Board Staff Report
Conditional Use Request - Atlantic Grove
Page 15
toward meeting the parking requirement, the on-site spaces meet the parking
requirement.
Parking for the residents of the townhouse units is provided in attached 2-car garages
which are located in the interior of the project. Access to this area is secured by a gated
entry on NW 3rd Avenue. Guest Parking is provided on-street and in the off-street
parking lots shared with the mixed-use buildings.
Parkinq Lot Desi,qn:
The design of the parking lot behind the commercial building on the 300 block has two
access points to NW 4th Avenue. To minimized pedestrian conflicts, the northern
driveway entrance should be eliminated and the circulation internalized. Although 6 on-
site spaces will be lost, the parking requirements for the project will still be met. This
change will also allow the addition of 3 on-street spaces and negate the need for an
additional handica3ped space. The final result will be a net loss of only 2 spaces.
Compact Parkinq:
Pursuant to LDR Section 4.6.9(C)(1)(g), up to 30% of the required parking for any use
may be designated for compact cars. The proposal includes 56 compact parking
spaces located throughout project. This represents 18.7% of the total required parking
spaces and meets the requirement.
Handicapped Accessible Parking:
Pursuant to LDR Section 4.6.9(C)(b), special parking spaces designed for use by the
handicapped shall be provided pursuant to the provisions of Florida Accessibility Code
for Building Construction. This code covers the commercial part of the mixed-use
project, but does not cover residential structures. The three commercial parking lots
contain a total of 203 spaces which would require 7 handicapped spaces. However,
elimination of one of the access drives, as discussed above, will reduce the parking to
197 spaces. With this change, only 6 handicapped accessible spaces will be required
and 6 have been provided. ---
On-Street Parking
Although not counted toward meeting the parking requirements for the project, an
additional 72 (75 with elimination of a driveway entrance) public parking spaces are
being provided by the developer along the adjacent roadways. Although available to
the general public, these spaces will help meet the shorter term parking requirements of
residents, guests and commercial customers of the project. A maximum time limit of
two hours during the daytime should be imposed by the City to prevent long term
parking.
Stacking Distance:
Pursuant to LDR Section 4.6.9(D)(3)(c)(1), parking lots that contain between 21 and 50
parking spaces must provide a stacking distance of 20' between a right-of-way and the
Planning and Zoning Board Staff Report
Conditional Use Request - Atlantic Grove
Page 16
first parking space or aisle way. Parking lots over 50 spaces must provide 50' of
stacking. The applicant will seek a waiver to this requirement during site plan review.
The two parking lots immediately behind the commercial buildings each have more that
50 spaces. Within the first 50' of stacking area, potential conflicts exists with the first 4 to
5 parking spaces on each side of the aisle. Since there are two driveways into each
parking lot, increasing the stacking distance to 50' is not necessary and would eliminate
34 parking spaces. Similarly, provision of 20' of stacking in the rear lot would eliminate 2
sparking spaces. Parking is at a premium in and around the downtown area, and it
would be beneficial to the area for this project to meet all of its parking demands on site.
It is also noted that the stacking distances from West Atlantic Avenue to the first on-
street parking spaces are minimal and will need to be approved by the City Engineer.
Lighting:
A lighting plan has not been submitted at this time. A photometric plan is required as a
part of the site plan review submittal.
Right-of-Way Dedication:
Per LDR Section 5.3.1 right-of-way dedications to meet minimum standards must be
made with all developments, unless a waiver is granted. Pursuant to LDR Section
5.3.1(D)(2), the required right-of-way width for NW 3rd and
5th Avenues is 60' and only
40' currently exists. For existing streets where the right-of-way does not meet the
minimums, reductions may be granted by the City Engineer upon a favorable
recommendation from the Development Management Services Group (DSMG). The
City Engineer and DSMG have reviewed the request for a reduction in right-of-way
width and have determined that the existing right-of-way width of 40' is sufficient, given
the proposed easement dedications for the sidewalk on NW 5th Avenue and the
sidewalk & parking on NW 3rd Avenue. The existing 50' right-of-way widths for NW 4th
Avenue and NWIst Street have been determined to be adequate and will accommodate
the proposed streetscape improvements.
Sidewalks:
Pursuant to LDR Section 6.1.3(B)(1), a 5' wide sidewalk is required within the rights-of-
way adjacent to the properties. Sidewalks will be constructed along NW 3rd, 4th and 5th
Avenues as well as NW 1st Street adjacent to the development. The sidewalks located
along NW 3rd and NW 5th Avenue will be constructed on the subject property adjacent to
the right-of-way. This configuration is proposed as the right-of-way width is only 40' and
on-street parking spaces are being created. The applicant must provide sidewalk
easement agreements for public use of the sidewalk. This item has been attached as a
condition of approval.
Building Setbacks:
The front setback in the GC district is 10'. Pursuant to LDR Section 4.3.4(H)(4),
Structures Allowed in Setbacks, house eaves, not to exceed a 3' overhang, are allowed
in the setback area. This provision also apply to exterior balconies on the building. The
Planning and Zoning Board Staff Report
Conditional Use Request - Atlantic Grove
Page 17
balconies for units 36 and 41 extend 4' into the front setback. This encroachment must
be reduced to 3' or a variance for the additional encroachment approved by the Historic
Preservation Board.
Several 3rd floor balconies and roof overhangs for the residential units in the commercial
buildings project 3'-6" into the front setback. The buildings must be moved 6" to the
north to eliminate the additional encroachment.
Plat Required:
The east-west and a portion of the north-south alleyway in Block 28 will have to be
abandoned to accommodate the development as planned. The subject property is
required to be platted as the units are for fee simple ownership and abandonment and
replacement easements will be required for utilities. As a condition of approval, the plat
must be recorded prior to issuance of building permits.
REVIEW BY OTHERS
Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA)
The CRA reviewed the conditional use request at its meeting of June 28, 2001, and
recommended approval.
West Atlantic Avenue Redevelopment Coalition (WARC)
WARC reviewed the conditional use request at its meeting of July 11, 2001, and
recommended approval.
Downtown Development Authority (DDA)
The DDA reviewed the conditional use request at its meeting of May 16, 2001 and
made comments that the streetscape on the side streets be consistent with that on
West Atlantic Avenue and that signage, also consistent with that on Atlantic Avenue, be
installed to provide direction to the parking areas in the rear. The Board recommended
approval. The Board reviewed the project again at its meeting of June 20, 2001 and
added the comment that conduit and electrical outlets be installed on the side streets to
allow for the addition of twinkle lights.
Historic Preservation Board (HPB):
The HPB reviewed the conditional use request at its meeting of July 11, 2001, and
recommended approval.

ASSESSMENT AND CONC~LUSION
The proposed conditional use is to allow for a density over 12 units per acre within the
West Atlantic Avenue Overlay District. As described in this staff report, the conditional
use is supported as the project substantially complies with the performance standards
in LDR Section 4.4.9(G)(1)(h). The project's combination of mixed-use development on
the West Atlantic Avenue frontage and housing in the rear will help in the long term
revitalization of the corridor. The proposed use is consistent with the West Atlantic
Avenue Redevelopment Plan, the goals, objectives and policies of the Comprehensive
Plan and Chapter 3 of the Land Development Regulations. Positive findings can be
made with respect to Section 2.4.5(E)(5) regarding compatibility of the proposed
development with surrounding properties. It is noted that pursuant to Section
4.4.9(G)(1)(h), despite the fact that the project meets the performance standards, the
Board may deny the application for increased density if it is determined that the
proposed project is not compatible in terms of building mass and intensity of use with
surrounding development. However, based upon the analysis contained in this report,
the project will be compatible with the surrounding land uses and the proposed density
increase of 4.54 units per acre is appropriate.

City of Delray Beach
Neighborhood Traffic Calming
Policy and Guidelines
Introduction
Traffic calming presents a new dimension when discussing the use of public rights-of-
way. The goals of traditional transportation improvements have focused on capacity,
speed and safety. While these are still concerns another dimension is often added, that
being the dimension of maintaining or restoring the "livability" of a neighborhood. This
new dimension is what is referred to as "traffic calming". Traffic calming has many
names, traffic mitigation, neighborhood traffic management, and neighborhood traffic
control to name a few. The City of Delray Beach will use the Institute of Transportation
Engineers (ITE) definition for traffic calming, which is:
"Traffic calming is the combination of mainly physical measures that reduce the
negative effects of motor vehicle use, alter driver behavior and improve
conditions for non-motorized street users."~
The major difference between traffic calming measures and other forms of traffic control
devices, such as stop signs and speed limit signs, which require enforcement, is that
calming measures are self-enforcing. Also, traffic calming should rely on the laws of
physics rather than human psychology to slow traffic. Although certain features along
the rights-of-way such as street trees and other streetscaping may be intended to aid in
calming traffic, there is no evidence indicating that these features directly induce drivers
to slow down. Finally, route modifications, such as street closures and walling off
communities are considered to be outside the realm of traffic calming since these
modifications imply that public streets are now private, when in fact they still are public
rights-of-way.
The City of Delray Beach is committed to ensure the overall safety and livability of
residential neighborhoods. One way to meet this commitment is through a collaboration
of City staff, residents and other agencies in an effort to minimize the impact of traffic on
neighborhoods. The City of Delray Beach Neighborhood Traffic Calming Policy and
Guidelines provides a process for identifying and addressing problems related to
speeding, excessive volumes, and safety on neighborhood streets.
This Traffic Calming Policy and Guidelines will put into practice the objectives and
policies contained in the Transportation Element of the City of Delray Beach
Comprehensive Plan. These include:
Special attention shall be paid to documented high accident areas, and specific
activities shall be undertaken to reduce their occurrence.
Travelways, which are primarily used by residents (local streets), shall receive
special attention in order to assure that they remain accessible to residents and
provide for easy traffic flow.
"Traffic Calming: State of the Practice", USDOT, FHWA Office of Safety Research and Development and Office
of Human Environment; prepared by Institute of Transportation Engineers, 1999.
S:tEngAdmin~traffic calrning~calmingpolicy, doc 3
City of Delray Beach
Neighborhood Traffic Calming
Policy and Guidelines
Efforts shall be made to limit excessive through-traffic and nonresidential traffic on
local roads within neighborhoods. Where a problem such as traffic is specifically
identified, it should be addressed through the utilization of traffic calming measures,
such as roundabouts, medians, and speed humps.
In short, this policy provides a procedure to consider, evaluate, and implement requests
for traffic calming measures within the City of Delray Beach.
Definitions
1)
85th Percentile Speed - that speed at which 85% of the free flowing vehicles are
traveling at or below.
2)
Arterial Street - a heavily traveled street of considerable continuity used primarily
as a main traffic artery. Ideally, an arterial street would have restricted access
and provide a high degree of mobility and continuity. See Figure A
3)
Collector Street - any two or four lane street which links an arterial street with
another collector street of local street. See Figure A
4)
Defined Neighborhood Boundaries - the boundary of the problem area, which
may cross traditional neighborhood boundaries.
Emergency & Evacuation Routes - routes identified, usually with a classification
of a collector or above, that are identified as key routes for emergency response.
See Figure B.
6)
Local Street - any two lane street with a primary purpose of providing direct
access to abutting residential properties.
7)
Residential Cut-Through Traffic - traffic which uses local or collector streets to
travel through a residential neighborhood without having an origin or destination
within the neighborhood.
8)
Speed Study - a study using equipment to measure, collect, and statistically
analyze the speeds of vehicles.
9)
Traffic Calming Measure - an element of a traffic calming plan selected from
among those devices authorized herein for use within the city.
10)
Traffic Calming Study- an appraisal of traffic conditions and the development of
a plan for implementing one or more traffic calming devices in a residential
neighborhood.
S:tEngAdmln~traffic calming~calrningpolicy, doc 4
City of Delray Beach
Neighborhood Traffic Calming
Policy and Guidelines
11)
Traffic Count - a manual or automated count of the number of vehicles traversing
a particular street in a given time period.
Objectives
The overall objects of the Traffic Calming Policy and Guidelines are derived from the
existing objectives and policies contained in the Transportation Element of the
Comprehensive plan mentioned earlier. The overall objectives include:
1)
Maintain and/or improve neighborhood livability by mitigating the impact of
vehicular traffic on residential neighborhoods.
2)
Promote safe and attractive streets that maintain and/or improve the quality of life
in neighborhoods.
3)
Promote conditions that provide safe neighborhoods for motorists, bicyclists,
pedestrians and residents of the neighborhood while maintaining access to the
neighborhood.
4)
Encourage citizen involvement in all phases of neighborhood traffic calming
activities.
5) Make efficient use of City resoumes by prioritizing traffic calming requests.
6)
Support the policies contained in the Transportation Element of the
Comprehensive plan.
Policies
The following policies are established as part of the Neighborhood Traffic Calming
Policy and Guidelines:
1)
Through traffic should be encouraged to use higher classification streets (i.e.
collector and arterial streets), as designated in the Transportation Element of the
City of Delray Beach Comprehensive Plan.
2)
Traffic may be re-routed from one street to another of equal classification as a
result of a neighborhood traffic-calming project, if and only if the end result is a
more equal distribution of the traffic volumes. However shifting a traffic problem
from one street to another or one neighborhood to another is not an acceptable
alternative.
3) Reduce the average speed of motor vehicles within neighborhoods.
S:~EngAdmm~traffic calmin¢calmingpolicy, doc 5
City of Delray Beach
Neighborhood Traffic Calming
Policy and Guidelines
4) Implement cost-effective measures for solving identified traffic problem(s).
5) Improve real and perceived safety for non-motorized users of the rights-of-way.
6) Reasonable emergency vehicle ingress/egress must be preserved.
7)
Reasonable automobile access should be maintained. Calming measures
implemented should encourage and enhance pedestrian and bicycle access to
and throughout defined neighborhood.
8)
Any local residential street can qualify to have calming measures implemented.
Collector streets will be considered on a case by case basis. Arterial streets will
not be considered for traffic calming measures. Street classification is
designated in the Transportation Element of the Comprehensive plan. See Figure
A
9)
The City shall employ traffic calming measures to achieve the objectives
identified in this document. Traffic calming measures include, but are not limited
to those measures listed in Section X. The City Engineer shall direct the design
and installation of all calming measures along with the traffic control devices
(signs, markings, etc.) as needed to accomplish the project, in compliance with
the municipal code.
10)
In processing and implementing traffic calming requests, certain procedures
should be followed by the City to ensure that_applicable codes and related
policies are adhered to, and that projects are within the limits of available
resources. At a minimum, the procedures shall provide for submittal of project
proposals; project evaluation and selection; citizen participation; and
communication of any findings related to the proposed project. All projects shall
receive input from area residents and affected organizations, and appropriate
City Commission approval before installation of permanent traffic calming
devices.
Process
I. Project Requests and Initiation of Traffic Calming Study
Requests for a traffic calming study, which are usually volume and speed related, can
be requested through one of the following: 1) Homeowners Association, 2) Public
Safety, or 3) City staff.
1)
Homeowners Association - a study may be initiated upon receipt by the city
manager of a petition signed by at least one member of sixty-six percent (66%) of
the households facing the block(s) of the street on which the Traffic Calming
Study is requested. A block shall consist of every developed property having
S:~EngAdmin~traffic calming~calrningpolicy, doc 6
City of Delray Beach
Neighborhood Traffic Calming
Policy and Guidelines
frontage on the street to be studied between successive intersecting streets. A
typical Traffic Calming Petition shall include, at a minimum, a description of the
street or streets which are to be included in the calming study and the signature
of at least 66% of the residents living on those street(s).
Non-public safety project requests shall require an application fee of $100.00.
2)
Public Safety or City Staff- a study may be initiated because of an identified
public safety issue.
I1. Phases of Traffic Calming Study
Before any neighborhood traffic problem, whether real or perceived, can be addressed,
it must be understood. The following outlines the various phases involved in a traffic
calming study.
1)
Citizen Meeting - All Traffic Calming Studies shall begin with an open meeting,
organized by Community Improvement Department, to which all potentially
affected residents are invited. An overview of what traffic calming is, what it is
intended to do and what criteria are used in selecting traffic calming devices and
location(s) will be discussed, as well as an opportunity for residents to provide
comments. Staff will work to define neighborhood boundaries.
2)
Data Collection Phase - Once the defined neighborhood is identified, appropriate
"before" data will be collected. Data collection strategies will be discussed to
determine the appropriate type of data to be collected as well as length and
dates of collection. Data collection before any measures are implemented also
serves as a comparison to "after" data to determine the effectiveness of the
traffic calming measures. Table 1 lists typical data that could be collected for
each defined neighborhood. If additional data is needed for a defined
neighborhood, the appropriate study will be conducted to supplement the above
information.
III. Ranking of Project(s)
A rating system, see TABLE 2, will be utilized in order to enable competing local street
traffic calming projects to be ranked in relation to the anticipated benefit. Similarly a
rating system, see TABLE 3, will be utilized in order to enable competing local collector
street traffic calming projects to be ranked in relation to the anticipated benefit. If
multiple projects are competing for traffic calming funds, ranking will be based on total
points and project cost. Traffic calming projects must score a minimum of 30 points in
order to be considered for implementation.

Speed and volume usually precipitate the request for traffic calming within a
neighborhood. Traffic crashes are added as extra points because a crash problem
usually coincides with higher volumes and speed.
Residential density also affects general traffic conditions. For example, higher densities
tend to generate more pedestrian and vehicle turn movements. In addition, projects on
higher density streets tend to benefit more people than projects on lower density
streets.
The other criteria, sidewalks, school crossings, and pedestrian generators, are
important considerations because they relate to pedestrian safety.

IV. Basic Traffic Calming Design Criteria
As stated earlier traffic calming measures are self-enforcing physical features in the
design of the roadway which effectively change the design speed. The neighborhood
will be instrumental in the development of traffic calming plans to tailor the design to
area characteristics. The design of traffic calming measures must, however, be
undertaken using due diligence and responsible engineering judgement of the
responsible designer.
The following criteria shall be used as design guidelines for those projects meeting the
criteria set in Section III above.
1)
2)
3)
The posted speed may not be more than thirty (30) miles per hour.
Limited to streets having only one lane of through traffic in each direction.
Streets must not be primary emergency or evacuation routes.
S:~EngAdmtnitraffic calmlng~calmingpolicy, doc ~)
City of Delray Beach
Neighborhood Traffic Calming
Policy and Guidelines
4)
5)
6)
At the discretion of the City Engineer, certain traffic calming measures may not
be used if they would create an unsafe condition for motorists driving at normal
speeds under average driving conditions.
Streets must not be through truck routes unless an acceptable alternative route is
identified and approved.
If a calming plan could divert more than five percent (5%) of the traffic to another
local or Collector Street, such street shall also be considered for traffic calming.
V. Project Financing
The ultimate factor regarding the implementation of traffic calming projects will be the
availability of funding. Funding sources include the annual capital improvement
program, special assessments, or federal or local grants.
VI. Project Selection
Projects scoring a minimum of thirty (30) points will be ranked and be presented to the
City Commission for approval. Projects approved by the City Commission will still need
to be compete for funding as part of the regular Capital Improvement Program (CIP)
annual process. Several factors will be considered when deciding whether to fund a
traffic calming project. The factors include size and complexity of calming project,
timing with other infrastructure improvements, and availability of funds.
VII. Project Implementation
Only after a calming project is funded will the design phases begin. The following is a
guideline to use when trying to determine when construction on a calming project will
begin:

VIII. Project Evaluation
Approximately six (6) months after the traffic calming project is completed additional
data will be collected and compared to the "before" data. The purpose of comparing
"after" data to "before" data is to evaluate the effects of the project. If any unacceptable
impacts are identified, corrective measures may be taken.

Policy and Guidelines
IX. Removal of Traffic Calming Measures
Traffic calming measures can be removed after the evaluation period for any of the
following reasons:
1. Emergency response is significantly impacted.
2. The identified traffic problem that the calming measures were to eliminate is
transferred to another adjacent street or neighborhood.
3. At least 75% of the property owners within the defined neighborhood sign a petition
to remove the calming measures. (This option will result in complete removal of all
measures and all residents within the defined neighborhood will be assessed for the
removal of the calming measures.)
X. Traffic Calming Measures
Roundabouts: A raised circular structure constructed in an intersection designed
to deflect the flow of traffic entering the intersection in a counter-clock-wise direction
around the circle. The objectives of roundabouts are to slow traffic and reduce the
number and severity of crashes. Roundabouts are designed to accommodate all sizes
of vehicles. These features address vehicle speeds and may discourage cut-through
traffic.
Semi-Diverter: Islands installed on the ingress side of the street in which entry is
being prohibited. Vehicles are still allowed to exit from this street but entrance is
prohibited. This feature discourages (actually prohibits) cut-through traffic.
Mid-Block Islands: Islands constructed mid-block in the center of the roadway
separating driving lanes and may reduce lane widths. The objectives of mid- block
islands are to slow traffic and reduce the number and severity of crashes. These
features address vehicle speeds and may discourage cut-through traffic.
Splitter Islands: These are treatments that may provide landscaping and physical
channelization to lanes at the entrances to the neighborhood. The objectives of splitter
islands are to slow traffic and discourage cut-through traffic.
Roadway Narrowing: These treatments reduce the width of pavement while
maintaining two- way traffic. Landscaping planted in conjunction with the narrowing may
further enhance the feature and impact driver behavior by reinforcing the impression
that the pavement area is limited. The objectives of roadway narrowing are to slow
traffic and reduce the number and severity of crashes. These features address vehicle
speeds and may discourage cut-through traffic.
S'~EngAdmin~traffic calmlng~calmingpolicy, doc ! !
City of Delray Beach
Neighborhood Traffic Calming
Policy and Guidelines
Forced Turn Islands: The installation of raised islands at the approach to an
intersection prohibits vehicles from making certain movements. The objectives are to
slow traffic, reduce the number and severity of crashes, and prohibit certain turning
movements.
Chicanes: This feature changes the alignment of the roadway so that the street is not
straight. This eliminates driver tendencies to accelerate on a straight street and may
add beautification opportunities without significantly impacting emergency services.
Two-way traffic and full access for larger vehicles and emergency services is
maintained. The objective is to slow traffic. These features address vehicle speeds and
may discourage cut-through traffic.
Neighborhood Signs: may be included at the entrance(s) to the neighborhood to
advise motorists that the area is "traffic calmed". This may eliminate or reduce the use
of other warning signs within the neighborhood, at the discretion of the City Engineer.
These signs discourage cut-through traffic.
Speed Humps: Street pavement can be raised and the surface treated; the
physical change in the roadway may slow vehicles. Speed humps shall not be used on
roadways designated as primary access routes. The objective is to slow traffic and
reduce the number and severity of crashes. These features address vehicle speeds and
may discourage cut-through traffic.
Speed Tables: A type of speed hump with a fiat top that may also be used as a
raised pedestrian crossing area. They are generally three to four inches high, have a
six-foot sloped approach, with a ten-foot top, and a six-foot sloped departure profile.
The objective is to slow traffic and reduce the number and severity of crashes. These
features address vehicle speeds, increase visibility for pedestrians and may discourage
cut-through traffic
Raised Intersections: A raised intersection involves the construction of the entire
intersection 3" to 4" above the approaching streets. The intersection is typically
constructed of a different material type or the approaches are of different material to
indicate a change at the intersection. The objectives are to slow traffic and reduce the
number and severity of crashes. Raised intersections are designed to accommodate all
sizes of vehicles. These features address vehicle speeds and may discourage cut-
through traffic.

WE WELCOME YOU TO EXPERIENCE AMES DESIGN INTERNATIONAL
Shane Ames, multi-talented, creative and a Florida licensed Designer and Architect,
formed Ames Design Intemational in 1985 with his business partner, Maria
Dechantsreiter. The firm has enjoyed t~emendous success ever since, contributing
apprbximately a bilb'on dollars to the industry via the construction of luxurious,
single family homes.
We were involved in the documented renovation of a historic house located in the
PROFESSIONAL HISTORIC PARK DlffTRI~, Del-Ida Park in Delray Beach, Florida.
This gem became the home of our new offices in December 1996. Once
completed, it was included in the Delray Beach Historic Society Homes tour.
Shane Ames specializes in very high-end custom designed residences.. His work has
been featured in most of the leading architectural magazines such as FLORIDA
ARCHITECTURE, UNIQUE HOMES and PROFESSIONAL BUll.DER, just to name a
few. One of the models he designed, "THE WESTBAY," won five awards at the
coveted "Pinnacle Award for 1990" ceremony at the Crocker Center in Boca Raton
for BEST ARCHITECTURE, BEST MODEL, BEST INTERIOR DESIGN and BF_Xr
'LANDSCAPING. Shane's work for Interior Merchandising won the PRISM GOLD
AWARD in 1995 for the midrise, "La Sanctuaire."
We are proud that the popular national magazine, FLORIDA DESIGN, has given us
recognition via an unprecedented 20-page coverage on two of our unique single
family residences in the Boca Raton area in their Winter 1995 issue (Vol. 5, No. 3),
a feature in their Summer 1997 issue (Vol. 7, No. 2). We were featured again in the
~Vinter 2000 issue (Vol. 10, No. 4), and recently in the Spring 2001 issue, giving us
special prominence via an 18-page article publicizing two of our homes.
Shane and his handpicked staff serve an international clientele who demand the best
in dramatic and sophisticated house design. Shane's impact upon the architectmal
beauty of South Florida is evidenced by the several thousand residential designs in
all the leading and prestigious Yacht, Golf and Tennis Country Club Communities,
as well as Oceanfront and Inuacoastal areas.
AAC001720 '
Shane designed the original Sales Center in the luxurious St. Andrews Country Club,
as~d continued vsith creating some of the most duplicated and sought- after models
named "ARIJNGTON," "HAMILTON," later renamed "OAKBROOK,"
"MANCHESTER," "BARRINGTON," and "MANSFIELD." Shane designed about every
fourth residence in the St. Andrews Country Club.
We 'take you from your initial consultation through to the production of
architectural plans, detailed interior drawings to securing the highest quality builder

To any Board, I would bring my ingrained sense of fairness and respect for
appropriate process. I have academic and practical experience in policy
analysis, as well as extensive experience in applying rules and regulations
to specific circumstances. I bring education in law and economics to the
table, but have no clients, who could require me to recuse myself from a
Board action. As I have no active practice or other business, I do not have
to worry about the impacts that the time demands of Board service could
have on my livelihood.
With regard to the Planning and Zoning Board, I have attended quite a few
meetings and have spoken both for and against projects. In the course of
researching my stands, I have acquired some familiarity with many
aspects of the City's Land Development Regulations (LDRs), which would
enable me to hit the ground running should I be appointed.
As for the Historic Preservation Board, I have attended a number of
meetings and am somewhat familiar with the pertinent LDRs from
researching projects and issues of interest. My interest in the history of
Delray Beach was demonstrated by the original research (approximately
50 pages) I provided 'to the City's Historic Preservation Planner for use in
the recent City-wide inventory of historic structures.

100 N.W. 1st Avenue
Delray Beach, Florida 33444
JUL- 5 2001
COi,, ,, i!SSIOE !
Dear Mayor Schmidt:
I have had the distinguished opportunity to serve as a Commissioner on the Delray Beach Housing
Authority (DBHA) for the past three (3) years. The knowledge I've gained regarding the housing
Authority and its significance, both locally and nationally, have impacted me professionally and personally.
Working with Dorothy Ellington and the Housing Authority Board has been an equally rewarding
experience.
I've been advised that my current term of service on the Board is approaching completion and I have
recently been asked of my ability to serve another term. As I reflected over the past years, I recalled a few
personal and professional challenges that surfaced during my term, which made me ponder resignation.
However, my internal composition would not allow for 'resignation' since I am personally driven to
complete tasks assigned to me. My current position in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida with the Broward Sheriff's
Office has, however, prompted me to re-evaluate my service to the Board. Promotion, increased
r~sponsibilities and distance have challenged my ability to provide the focus and attention I desire to give
to the DBHA. As a result, I will concede to the conclusion of my term of service at this time. I really
appreciated working in this capacity and trust that, should I gain employment within the Delray Beach area
at some point in the future, I can serve the Board again.
Sincere thanks and best wishes to you, the Delray Beach Housing Authority and the resident's I've had the
opportunity to serve.

Salvatore G, Coco has a liletong exposure to the construction and
design professions. Past experience has ranged from multi-story luxury
residential projects, nursing homes, educational facilities, public libraries,
commercial buildings and aviation projects, These experiences began at
Coco & Baldassano Architects, a predecessor firm established in 1965 by
Salvatore Coco, Sr.
Later as Associate Architect in one of the Nation's oldest
architectural firms he concentrated on public educational design including
several public libraries and the associated construction documents. This
included coordination with consultants and user groups in order to achieve
a comprehensive and clear set of construction documents. A well-planned
facility cuslornized to the user constructed in local techniques, completed
timely and ~ budget was the successful objective.
Since 1995 Mr. Coco has worked on several large-scale multi-
disciplinary airport developments projects. This included the Project
Management of over one million square feet in design and construction
over a lour-year period totaling over ~?.50M in construction budget, He also
led the thirty-person Coco & Coco, P.A. team which acted as the Architect
& Owner's Representative for the $75M Addition and Expansion to
Aeropuerto Imemacional Reina Eleatrix in Aruba, Dutch Caribbean.
These experiences included an overall ability to understand the
needs of different users, agencies and tenants. All of these entities were
integrated into these multi-functional airport facilities. Well-planned phasing
of design and construction enabled continuously operating facilities
throughout these construction projects. Knowledge of buildings, systems
and co(les related to the life, safety and welfare of ff~ public was essential
to the success of all these endeavors. The fully developed understanding of
these processes is the cornerstone in the successful development of any
building project.

Dear Ms. Warren;
I have received your guide to advisory boards and committees. I have read it
carefully and it seems to me that only a limited number of openings will be
av, ailable. I am interested and have enclosed my preferences below.
~ite plan and appearance Board
Planning & Zoning Board
I think that my background experience in business in New Jersey would be
valuable to board service. I would be happy to discuss this with you and see if
what I can offer would be appropriate.
I think the City should consider a new committee to address the needs of senior
citizens and frail elderly. There should be a resource center for the seniors to get
information needed about city, county and state and federal agencies available to
them. I recently took the Senior course given at the Delray Police Dept. with
Officer Skip Brown and found it educational. I also have completed the
leadership course at the Area Agency on Aging and am a public speaker for that
group. We must address the seniors current needs.
If you want to reach me for further discussion, please call me at 561-272-0330.

Delray Beach Housing Authority/Property Acquisition
ITEM BEFORE THE COMMISSION:
City Commission approval and authorization to partner with the Delray Beach Housing Authority to
acquire a 3.08 track of undeveloped land located just south of Carver Estates between Southwest 10m
and 8th Streets. The Authority in partnership with the City will facilitate the construction of approximately
eight new affordable houses for first bme homebuyers qualifying under the established very Iow and
Iow-income (at or below 80% of area median) guidelines for families. The Authority is requesting that
we advance the $250,000 projected as the purchase price for the land. Staff is recommending that we
use a portion of the revenues generated under the HOPE 3 program for this initiative.
BACKGROUND:
The City of Delray Beach received a $430,000 grant under the HOPE 3 program in 1996. These funds
were provided to acquire and rehabilitate ten (10) HUD insured foreclosed properties for first time
homebuyers. Federal Regulations 24 CFR 572 governing this program required that we sell the units
at the improved value. The Community Development staff successfully completed the acquisition,
rehabihtation and sale of 10 units and generated $408,609 as program income. These revenues may
be used to facilitate homeownership opportunities for eligible very Iow and Iow-income households.
The balance of these dollars are set aside for the property acquired and located at the northwest corner
of Swinton Avenue and 10th Street for the City's affordable housing initiative.
The Housing Authority has several families that are participating in their Family Self-Sufficiency
Program that educates and grooms residents for homeownership. This program is designed to
transition families out of Public Housing into homeownership. The Authority is scheduled under its
approved five-year plan to receive capital funds at $250,000 per year beginning with their 2002 fiscal
year. Thus, they are proposing to replace our dollars at that time, making them available to fund the
infrastructure to the site.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff is recommending that the City Commission approve the partnership between the City and the
Delray Beach Housing Authority to acquire the 3.08 tract of land as referenced above and to jointly
develop a site plan and the construction of affordable housing for the City's very Iow and Iow-income
eligible families. Further, the commission is asked to authorize the use of our existing HOPE 3 funds in
the amount of $250,000 to assist the Authority in the acquisition of this property. Staff will be
responsible for ensuring all formal agreements are in place and that the expenditures of these dollars
comply with the applicable regulations for the HOPE 3 Program.

Subject: Acquisition/Bridge Loan SW 10th Street Property
Dear Ms. Butler:
This is follow-up to our conversation regarding the acquisition of a 3.08 acre undeveloped site located
contiguous to the Delray Beach Housing Authority property between Southwest 10th Street and SW 8th
Street. You have indicated that you would be willing to partner with us on a project that would include
affordable housing for moderate income homeownership, therefore we are requesting assistance from the
City of Delray Beach in providing bridge financing in the amount of $250,000 to purchase this property.
Our HUD-approved Five Year Plan includes a plan to acquire property through our Capital Fund
program at $250,000 per year for three years beginning April 1, 2002. However, we are now in a position
where it is important that we purchase this property sooner than planned because of market conditions.
The owner of the property has indicated that there are two potential buyers for this property one of whom
has offered far more than what our appraisal indicates the property is worth. Therefore we are
preparing to hire a specialized attorney to pursue the acquisition immediately.
Thankyou for your willingness to workwith us. We would appreciate a written letter of commitment that
can be shared with the Board of Commissioners at their July 12, 2001 meeting. Please call me if you have
questions regarding this request.
Sincerely,

Section 108 Loan Guarantee Program - Application Submission &
Approval of Terms and Conditions
ITEM BEFORE THE COMMISSION
City Commission authorization and approval to submit a Section 108 Loan Guarantee
application in the amount of $1.5 million dollars to the Housing and Urban Development
Department to assist with the Atlantic Grove 4.6 acre mixed - use development project
that will be constructed within the West Atlantic Avenue Redevelopment Area.
BACKGROUND
On June 19, 2001 the City Commission gave final approval for the submittal of the
Economic Development Initiative (EDI) grant application of $300,000. Pursuant to the
EDI grant application, a request for new Section 108 loan guarantee funds must be used
in conjunction with the proposed economic development project. Therefore, the City of
Delray Beach will be requesting $1.5 million in Section 108 Loan Guarantee funds as
part of the Atlantic Grove mixed - use project, which will include the development of
retail, and office space, condominiums and townhouses. Each component of the
development will be for sale. The EDI grant funds will be retained by the City and used
to pay the interest on the Section 108 loan during the first two and one-half years,
depending on the interim lending rate at the time the funds are drawn down.
USE OF SECTION 108 GRANT FUNDS
The Section 108 loan request for $1.5 million dollars will be used for property acquisition
($1.309 million) and for other eligible soft costs ($191,000) related to the development.
The land costs attributable to the commercial development is $189,000 for the
condominiums, $379,500 for the residential and $740,500 for the commercial space. The
uses for the Section 108 and EDI funds are consistent with the criteria under Section 24
CFR 570.208 (a) 4(1) - Activities benefiting low- and moderate - income persons. The
proposed Atlantic Grove project will generate approximately 151 new jobs.
TERMS OF LOAN
The Section 108 funds will be loaned to the developer, Atlantic Grove Partners, LLC.
The Section 108 repayment will be for 20 years, but the funding will stay in the interim
status during the period that the various components are being sold, as there are no
prepayment restrictions on the funds. The City will have a second deed of trust for each
parcel and will grant partial releases as the townhouses, condominiums and commercial
units are sold. To the extent a portion of the commercial space is retained by the
developer, the amount of Section 108 funds attributable to those units may be repaid over
the full 20 years.
PROJECT FEASIBILITY
The CRA had a detailed market analysis done by Marketek to determine the demand for
office and retail. Reinhold P. Wolff Economic Research, Inc., was hired to determine the
market for "residential for sale units." The development group also had market research
done by the Center for Urban Redevelopment and Empowerment at Florida Atlantic
University. The Marketek study determined that retail demand could absorb 400,000
square feet of retail over the next 20 years, with a demand of 100,000 square feet in the
immediate five years. The study also concluded that 20-25% of the absorption could
occur in the West Atlantic corridor or 20,000 to 25,000 square feet of retail space in the
near term. The office market demand is for annual absorption of 74,000 square feet. The
study concluded that the West Atlantic Avenue area could absorb 20-25% of the demand
or 14,800 to 18,500 square feet immediately, with annual growth increasing to 30,000 to
40,000 within five years. Each commercial building will have 11,220 square feet of
office space on the second floor. Overall office space vacancy in Delray Beach is only
5% and no other new office space is planned.
The proposed Atlantic Grove project retail and office space for the commercial building
is priced at $14.00 and $16.00 per square feet annually. This compares to $20.00 to
$30.00 per square feet for retail and $17.00 to $20.00 per square feet for office space a
few blocks east of the project. The project feasibility is enhanced as the two buildings
will be phased based on the market and the initial building will commence construction
when pre-leasing covers the debt service.
The total development cost of the project is $16,227,495.00. As part of the project
feasibility and underwriting analysis it was determined that the development pro forma
had the appropriate debt service reserves for private financing for the project. In
addition, the project team has capacity and experience to carry out the development
project. The HUD funds are critical to the success of the project. This project is located
within our CDBG target area, and it will exemplify the commitment of the City to
improve the more impoverished areas of our City and provide new jobs and housing
opportunities.
RECOMMENDATIONS
Staff is recommending the City Commission authorize the submission of the application
to participate in the Section 108 Loan Guarantee Program in the amount of $1.5 million
dollars. The Commission is also asked to approve the terms and conditions put forth in
this transmittal and the attached letter from Mark Briggs, the contracted consultant. Mr.
Briggs will be at the meeting to expound on the terms and conditions negotiated and to
answer any other questions the Commission may have.

RE: Scheduling
Dear Lula
I have attached rny letter outlining the structure for the Section 108 Loan Please let me
know if you think it should be modified before providing it to the Commission
Regarding the next Commission meeting, 1 assume you know that when the BEDI/EDI
deadlines approach we go on a virtual seven day a week schedule for about two months
Needless to say, when the last deadline passes, vacations are in order and mine is set to go
to Alaska for a week leaving the evening of July l0th and returning on the 17th I thought
the Commission met on the first and third Tuesday, and assumed the next meeting would
be July 3rd I was prepared to be available for that meeting if necessary It was not until the
Commission meeting that I learned that this meeting would not be until July l0th I should
have known, however, that the schedule might change the week of the 4th of July
We have two choices Either you can decide that the attached letter is enough of an
explanation and go forward on the l0th w~thout me, or the Commission could continue the
hearing to the meeting on July 24m when I would be available We have no urgency on
st,bmitting the Section 108 Loan, so you can decide which optton serves you best I would
like to know as soon as you decide so I can to get advanced tickets, which are always
cheaper than without much notice
I assume you were fabulous at the All American City competition and came away with the
award If'not, the organizers of the process blew itl

RE: Section 108 Loan Structare o./Lien Against Land
Dear Lula
The development team for the Atlantic Grove project has proposed revisions to their program
that modifies the total commercial square footage, adds construction of condominiums on the
top floor of the commercial buildings and a sales program for the commercial as well as all
the resldenual space This letter outhnes how the security for the Section 108 Loan can be
structured under the proposed new development program The reformation m this letter
builds on mformanon provided m my letters to you dated May 12th and June 15th
1. Flexibility in Section 108 Loan Repayment
As noted in my previous letters, HUD provides the Section 108 funds to cities ~n two
different ways depending on when the city needs the funds The Section 108 funds come
from Pubhc Offerings, when HUD assembles bet~veen $300 and $800 mdlion in Sectmn 108
Loan requests HUD ther! uses national underwriters to handle the sale of the Section 108
notes The Pubhc Offering occurs about once a year, with the next one scheduled for August
9th When the Pubhc Offering occurs, the interest rates are fixed for the term of the
repayment of the notes With the fixed rate, est rate HUD is able to pro~,lde the city with the
exact payments due on August 1" and Febmal.-y 1'~, the dates of the semi-am'mai Secuon 108
Loan payments
However, since the Public Offerings only happened about once a year, cities often need the
funds earlier than the next Pubhc Offering To meet that need, HUD has an agreement with
Chase Bank to provide interim funds Chase charges variable interest on a quarterly basis at
3-month LIBOR plus 20 basis points Today the 3-month rate ~vas 3.75% Normally a city
would use the mte,'m~ funds fi'om Chase only until the next Pubhc Offering, at wluch time the
interim funds xvould be paid off and the interest rates would be fixed There is no
reqmrernent, however, of a ctty to request that HUD place its interim financing m the next
Public Offering In fact. a city may keep the funds in the interim status fbr the full repayment
term

There are two considerations regarding whethel a city would move tile funds from interim
status to a Pubhc Offenng Once funds are placed in a Pu hb!~c__Offermg, there can be~.~no
prepaylnent of the Sectmn 108 not~.~gntll the 10'h ~'ear Therefore. if the city received funds
ro'f"f'Gi~sales proceeds prior to the 10ti' year tt &of, Id have to put the funds ~n a defeasance
account until the l0th year and pay tile apphcable interest on each of the semi-annual Section
108 payments It ~s likely that the amount tile city would earn on the investment accounts
would not equal the Section 108 interest on the various notes Therefore the c~ty would have
to pay the negative arbitrage, which ts the difference between the interest charged on the
Section 108 notes and the interest earned on tile investment account
There is no proh,h,t,n,, o~ prep_~_yment_.gf the Interim funds_fmm_ghase Bank Any pnncipal
amounts can be paid when the quarterly interest payments are made---Yliat~ts well w~th the
proposed modification to the plan for Atlannc Grove We have always proposed that the
Section 108 Loan structure be ,nte,'est only for the first two years and that we use the
Economm Development Inmanve (EDI) grant funds to pay the interest during that period and
}lave some EDI funds avmlable beyond the two years If tile sales program is accomphshed
m tile first two and one half years, then the total Section 108 Loan would be repaid from the
sales proceeds
If it ends up that a portion of tile commercial building is not sold, but leased and the
development team decades to keep that port,on of the commercml budding long term, then
the outstanding principal amount of the Section 108 Loan amount would be repaid over the
remainder of the 20 year term. but could st~ll be prepaid at any time, should tile leased
pomon eventually be sold
If at any t~me during tile remaining repayment term ~nterest rates begin to climb significantly.
the city can always tell HUD to include the remaining notes ill tile next Pubhc Offering.
tlleseby fixing the rate, est rate for the remainder of the tram
2. Security for the Section 108 Loan
When tile Atlantic Grove development team starts construcnon on the project, it must have
an approved subd,vlslon map that creates a parcel or mr rights for each town}louse,
condon'nrnurn and con'mlercml LIBII Tile city would hold a lien against tile ennre land area, in
a second posmon to tile construct~cm lender, that wdl that w~ll have a first hei'~ The escrow
pi'ocess will allocate tile approprmte amount against eacll parcel wflhm tile project I have
worked out what that allocatwn would be based ou tile use of the Section 108 Loan funds roi'
purchase of the land, ,a,,th an allocanon fo, a portion of the soft costs That allocanon model
Is as follows
Allocation of Section 108 Funds
Total Section 108 Loan S 1,500,000
Acquisition S 1,309,00{.)
Soft Costs S 191.000

Allocation (nnits)
"A, Total Allocated
Land of Total Soft Costs Allocated Per Unit
Commercial (20) $ 740,500 56 57% $ 108,049 $ 848,549 $ 42,427
Condomimums(24) $ 189,000 1444% $ 27,578 $ 216,578 $ 9,024
Townhouses(55) $ 379,500 2899% $ 55,374 $ 434,874 $ 7,907
Total $1,309,000 10000% $ 191,000 $1,500,000
The land amounts by component come from the developer's proforma With thru allocation,
every t~me a commerc.al umt is sold, the escrow would require a partial release of the city's
overall hen, as related to each parcel So when each commercial unit is sold, the city would
receive $42,427, $9,024 for each condominium sold, and $7307 for every townhouse sold
The process is exactly the same as will be undertaken to extinguish the constrtlction lender's
liens against the same parcels The new lenders will require the hen releases as they will
require the parcels they are financing to be free and clear of any hens
The escrow mstrucnons will d,'ect that the funds from sale proceeds be placed in the account
the City wdl use to make the quarte.'ly payments to Chase Bank The C~ty would simply add
additional funds received to the interest payment, thereby reducing the principal owed to
Chase Bank
Thru suggested structure accommodates the new program by the development team, meets
HUD's requirements and actually reduces the city's ongoing risk by paying off all or a large
part of the Section 108 funds during the two and one-half years whde the EDI grant funds are
making the interest payment
Please call me ,f you have any questions regarding the structure, the HUD requirements or
the process that allocates the I~ens against the varlot, s parcels
Sincerely.

MEETING OF JULY 24, 2001
AMENDMENT TO LAND DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS RELATING TO 24-HOUR
BUSINESSES.
At its meeting of February 6, 2001, the City Commission approved an ordinance which enacted a 6-
month moratorium prohibiting the establishment of new businesses having operating hours between
12:00 midnight and 5:00 AM in the Downtown Development Authority area, to allow time to study the
impacts of 24-Hour Businesses on adjacent residential uses and the redevelopment effort. The
moratorium did not effect any existing businesses that were already operating between these hours,
and exempted hotels, motels, office uses, restaurants and cocktail lounges.
The primary concern with 24-Hour Businesses is their impacts on residentially zoned properties as well
as the effects on redevelopment efforts. Therefore, the proposed ordinance applies citywide rather
than to just the area within the boundaries of the Downtown Development Authority, as indicated in the
moratorium. The ordinance amends the Land Development Regulations to include a definition of 24-
Hour Businesses, adds a new subsection which includes special provisions for 24-Hour Businesses,
and amends affected zoning districts where 24-Hour Businesses may be established as a conditional
use. The ordinance does not apply to existing to 24-Hour Businesses.
The Planning and Zoning Board held a public hearing regarding this item at its meeting of July 16,
200,1. There were several members of the public who spoke regarding the text amendment. There
were concerns expressed that the proposed ordinance would apply to projects currently under
construction. Comments were made to the ordinance referencing "Eastern Standard Time" and felt that
darification was needed. One person suggested the ordinance needed further study and should be
discussed at a workshop. Diane Dominguez, Executive Director of the Community Redevelopment
Agency, spoke in support of the proposed ordinance.
Some Board members felt that the ordinance did not address the intent of the moratorium with regard
to convenience type businesses, and questioned significantly broadening the affected area and uses,
such as restaurants. Mr. Peltzie also felt that the title was deceiving as the ordinance applies to
businesses that are open between midnight and 5:00 AM, and not just 24 hours. Chairman Bird felt the
ordinance should apply between 11:00 PM and 5:00AM. After discussing the amendment, the Board
voted 4-3 (Randolph, Peltzie, Bird dissenting) to recommend to the City Commission approval of the
proposed text amendment, based upon positive findings with respect to LDR Section 2.4o5(M).
Since the Planning and Zoning Board hearing, changes have been made to address the comments that
relate to applicability of the ordinance and elimination of the reference to "Eastern Standard Time".
Attached is a map, which indicates the commercial areas within 300' of residentially-zoned properties.

AGENDA ITEM:
IV.F. AMENDMENT TO LAND DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS
APPENDIX "A" AND SECTION 4.3.3 ADDING A DEFINITION AND
SPECIAL REGULATIONS REGARDING 24-HOUR BUSINESSES AND
LISTING 24-HOUR BUSINESSES AS A CONDITIONAL USE IN
CERTAIN NON-RESIDENTIAL ZONING DISTRICTS.
The item before the Board is an amendment to Land Development Regulations Appendix "A"
and Section 4.3.3 adding a definition and special regulations regarding 24-Hour Businesses
and listing 24-Hour Businesses as a conditional use in certain non-residential zoning districts.
The amendment is being processed in accordance with LDR Section 2.4.5(M). Pursuant to
LDR Section 1.1.6, an amendment to the LDRs may not be made until a recommendation is
obtained from the Planning and Zoning Board.
In December, 2000, the WARC (West Atlantic Redevelopment Coalition) requested a 6-month
moratorium on 24-Hour Businesses in the Downtown Development Authority Area within the
GC (General Commercial) and CBD zoning Districts to allow time to study the impacts of 24-
Hour Businesses on adjacent residential uses, and the redevelopment effort.
At its meeting of February 6, 2001, the City Commission approved an ordinance which
enacted a 6-month moratorium prohibiting the establishment of new businesses having
operating hours between 12:00 midnight and 5:00 AM in the Downtown Development
Authority area. The moratorium also prohibited existing business, which did not already
operate during these hours, from extending their hours of operation between 12:00 midnight
and 5:00 am. The moratorium did not effect any existing businesses that were already
operating between these hours. Furthermore, the ordinance provided an exemption for hotels,
motels, office uses, restaurants and cocktail lounges.
The primary concern with 24-Hour Businesses is their impacts on residentially zoned
properties. Therefore, the proposed ordinance applies citywide rather than to just the area
within the boundaries of the Downtown Development Authority, as indicated in the
moratorium. The ordinance amends the Land Development Regulations to include a
definition of 24-Hour Businesses, adds a new subsection which includes special provisions for
24-Hour Businesses, and amends affected zoning districts where 24-Hour Businesses may
be established.

Planning and Zoning Board Memorandum Staff Report
LDR Text Amendment Regarding 24-Hour Businesses
Page 2
The proposed ordinance defines a 24-Hour Business as: "any restaurant, bar, lounge,
nightclub, music hall, club, gasoline station, convenience store, convenience business, retail
store, grocery store, laundromat or similar use which is or will be open for business at any
time during a calendar year between the hours of 12 midnight and 5 a.m. (Eastern Standard
Time). A 24-Hour Business shall not mean a hotel or motel unless any of the aforementioned
uses are operated or will be operated between the hours of 12 midnight and 5 a.m. on the
same property as, or otherwise in conjunction with, a hotel or motel use."
A 24-Hour Business, which is located or proposed to be located within 300' of any
residentially zoned property, shall obtain a conditional use approval from the City for the
operation of such use. The use must also comply with special provisions listed in the
attached ordinance. These include the provision of a security plan and buffering. Conditional
use approval and compliance with the special provisions do not apply to 24-hour businesses,
which are not within 300' of residentially zoned property.
LDR Section 2.4.5{M)(5} (Findinqs}: Pursuant to LDR Section 2.4.5(M)(5) (Findings), in
addition to LDR Section 1.1.6(A), the City Commission must make a finding that the text
amendment is consistent with and furthers the Goals, Objectives and Policies of the
Comprehensive Plan.
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN POLICIES:
The goals, objectives and policies of the Comprehensive Plan were reviewed and the
following objective and policy are noted.
Housinq Element Objective A-t2: To assist residents of the City in maintaining and
enhancing their neighborhood environment, the City shall take steps to ensure that
modifications in and around the neighborhood do not lead to its decline .....
Housin_~ Element Policy A-12.3: In evaluating proposals for new development or
redevelopment, the City shall consider the effect that the proposal will have on the
stability of nearby neighborhoods. Factors such as noise, odors, dust, traffic volumes
and circulation patterns shall be reviewed in terms of their potential to negatively
impact the safety, habitability and stability of residential areas. If it is determined that a
proposed development will result in a degradation of any neighborhood, the project
shall be modified accordingly or denied.
The impacts of 24-Hour Businesses on residential areas are a concern and every attempt
must be made to ensure that residential areas are not negatively impacted. Compliance with
the above policy is specifically listed in the proposed ordinance as a finding that must be
made for approval of the Conditional Use. The proposed text amendment will help to fulfill the
referenced objective and policy, and will further other goals, objectives and policies of
Comprehensive Plan, especially as they relate to improving quality of life, stabilizing
residential areas, and preventing degradation of neighborhoods.

OF PLANNING AND ZONING
ZONING CHANGE FROM RM (MEDIUM DENSITY RESIDENTIAL) TO
CF (COMMUNITY FACILITIES) FOR THE FIRST PRESBYTERIAN
CHURCH AND FISLER PROPERTY LOCATED ON GLEASON
STREET~ SOUTH OF EAST ATLANTIC AVENUE
*BACKGROUND
The First Presbyterian Church was originally founded in 1924 and was the first church to
be built east of the Intracoastal Waterway. The original structure (which was designated
to the Local Register of Historic Places by the City Commission on November 16, 1999)
remained the Presbyterian sanctuary until their new church was constructed in 1977 at
33 Gleason Street, just to the west of the original building. After the construction of the
new sanctuary, the original building became the congregation Fellowship Hall.
At its meeting of May 15, 2001, the City Commission approved the abandonment of that
portion of Bronson Avenue lying adjacent the church. The vacated right-of-way has been
incorporated within the church's campus.
Within the last decade additional properties have been acquired and today the First
Presbyterian Church campus incorporates 3.3 acres. The rezoning request incorporates
the 3.3 acre church property and an existing residential parcel referred to the "Fisler
Property" located at 37 Gleason Street. This property is currently under contract to be
purchased by the church. Additional background and an analysis of the request are
found in the attached Planning and Zoning Board Staff Report.
PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD CONSIDERATION ,- I
At its meeting Of June 18, 2001, the Planning and Zoning Board held a public hearing in
conjunction with the request. After reviewing the staff report and discussing the
proposal, the Board voted 4-0 to recommend that the request be approved, based upon
positive findings with respect to Chapter 3 (Performance Standards) and Section
2.4.5(D)(5) of the Land Development Regulations, and policies of the Comprehensive
Plan.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
By motion, approve on first reading the ordinance for a zoning designation change from
RM (Medium Density Residential) to CF (Community Facilities) based on positive
findings with respect to Chapter 3 (Performance Standards), LDR Sections 2.4.5(D)(5),
and policies of the Comprehensive Plan.

Page 2
This property is currently under contract to be purchased by the church. The
church has been in continuous operation for nearly 80 years on the property.
During the past ten years adjacent tracts have been purchased as the operations
of the Church have expanded. As the church campus continues to expand it is
appropriate that all the properties be rezoned to CF.

REQUIRED FINDINGS:
LDR (Chapter 3) PERFORMANCE STANDARDS:
Pursuant to Section 3.1.1 (Required Findings), prior to approval of Land
I.)~e applications, certain findings must be made in a form which is part of
the official record. This may be achieved through information on the
application, written materials submitted by the applicant, the staff report, or
minutes. Findings shall be made by the body which has the authority to
approve or deny the development application. These findings relate to the
Future Land Use Map, Concurrency, Comprehensive Plan Consistency, and
Compliance with the Land Development Regulations.
Future Land Use Map: The resulting use of land or structures must be
allowed in the zoning district within which the land is situated and said
zoning must be consistent with the applicable land use designation as
shown on the Future Land Use Map.
The subject property has a Future Land Use Map designation of Medium
Density Residential and is currently zoned RM (Medium Density Residential).
Pursuant to LDR Section 4.4.21(A) The Community Facilities (CF) district is a
special purpose zone district primarily, but not exclusively, intended for
locations at which facilities are provided to serve public, semi-public and
private purposes. The proposed CF (Community Facilities) zoning
designation is deemed consistent with all Future Land Use Map designations.
Pursuant to LDR Section 4.4.21(B)(5) within the CF zone district religious
uses such as churches and places of worship and attendant uses of day care,
pre-school, educational facilities, and with other normal educational (Sunday
school) and recreational facilities, and support facilities (e.g. parsonage) are
permitted uses. The proposed CF zoning classification more accurately
reflects the existing use of the property. Thus, based upon the above, a
positive finding can be made with respect to consistency with the Future Land
Use Map designation.
Concurrency - Development at the highest intensity possible under the
requested designation can meet the adopted concurrency standards.
In the preparation of the Delray Beach Comprehensive Plan, the land use
designations throughout the entire planning and service area were considered
P&Z Board Staff Report
Rezoning from RM to CF for the First Presbyterian Church and Fisler Property
Page 3
with respect to the overall land use pattern, assessment of level of service,
the provision of services, and meeting remaining land use needs. As there is
no proposal to modify the existing land use on the property the establishment
of the CF zone district will not technically modify the original findings. It is
noted that uses allowed under the CF zoning designation characteristically
have less impact on concurrency than other zoning designations consistent
with the underlying Medium Density Residential designation. Positive findings
with respect to Concurrency can be made.
El Consistency -The requested designation is consistent with the goals,
objectives and policies of the most recently adopted Comprehensive
Plan.
,' A review of the adopted Comprehensive Plan was conducted and the
following policies were found with regard to rezoning.
Policy A-4.1, Land Use Element states" Prior to approval or recommending
approval of any land use or development application for property located
within a historic district or designated as a historic site, the Historic
Preservation Board must make a finding that the requested action is
consistent with the provisions of Section 4.5.1 of the Land Development
Regulations relating to historic sites and districts and the "Delray Beach
Design Guidelines"
On June 6, 2001, the Historic Preservation Board reviewed the request and
recommended approval of the rezoning.
Policy C-3.2 Coastal Management Element 'q'here shall be no change in the
intensity of land use within the barrier island and all infill development which
does occur shall connect to the City's storm water management system and
sanitary sewer system" The proposed rezoning will not change the intensity
of land uses as there are no changes proposed in the current operations of
the existing church facilities. While there will be a change in the use of the
Fisler Property which currently accommodates two residential units and a
office an increase in intensity is not anticipated at this time as there are no
specified development proposal for the site. Consistency findings with
respect to future improvements wiJi be made at the time of development
review.
1:3 Compatibility - The requested designation will be compatible with the
existing and future land uses of the surrounding area.
Compatibility is discussed below under the Standards for Rezoning.
P&Z Board Staff Report
Rezoning from RM to CF for the First Presbyterian Church and Fisler Property
Page 4
Compliance - Development under the requested designation will
comply with the provisions and requirements of the Land Development
Regulations.
The site is developed and includes a church with attendant fellowship hall,
education facility and other accessory facilities. The property which is being
acquired by the church is also improved and contains two residential structures.
Within the CF zone district, a-perimeter setback of 10 feet is required. The
existing church, education building, the Fisler residential buildings and the other
accessory buildings along the north and east property lines are currently non-
conforming with respect to the required side and rear yard setbacks and will
remain non-conforming under the proposed CF zone district.
Additionally, LDR Section 4.4.21(G)(2) requires that when the CF zone district is
adjacent to residential zoning, the perimeter landscaping should be increased to
a depth of 15 feet (15') or, as an alternative, either a wall, decorative fencing, or
hedging should be installed for aesthetic and buffer purposes. The east, south
and west perimeters abut residential zoning. While there are some types of buffer
treatment along these perimeters they are not uniform and include of a mix of
shadow box fencing, chain link fencing and hedges. Appropriate buffer treatment
will be required with the change in use of the Fisler Property and any significant
site improvement on the existing church's campus.
Section 3.2.1 (Basis for Determining Consistency): The performance
standards set forth in this Article either reflect a policy from the
Comprehensive Plan or a principle of good planning practice. The
performance standards set forth in the following sections as well as
compliance with items specifically listed as required findings in
appropriate portions of Section 2.4.5 shall be the basis upon which a
finding of overall consistency [Section 3.1.1(C)] is to be made. However,
exclusion from this Article shall not be a basis for not allowing
consideration of other objectives and policies found in the adopted
Comprehensive Plan in the making of a finding of overall consistency.
Section 3.2.2 (Standards for Rezoning Actions): Standards B, C and E are
not applicable with respect to the proposed rezoning. The applicable
performance standard of Section 3.3.2 is as follows:
(A) The most restrictive residential zoning district that is applicable given
existing development patterns and typical lot sizes shall be applied to
those areas identified as "Stable" and "Stabilization" on the
Residential Neighborhood Categorization Map. Requests for
rezonings to a different zoning designation, other than Community
Facilities, Open Space, Open Space and Recreation, or Conservation
shall be denied.
P&Z Board Staff Report
Rezoning from RM to CF for the First Presbyterian Church and Fisler Property
Page 5
The subject site is located within an area designated as "Stable" on the
Residential Neighborhood Categorization Map. The requested designation is to
a CF designation which is deemed acceptable for stable neighborhood areas.
With the adoption of the LDR and city wide rezoning this property should have
been rezoned to CF to reflect the existing uses.
(D)
That the rezoning shall result in allowing land uses which are
deemed compatible with adjacent and nearby land uses both existing
and proposed; or that if an incompatibility may occur, that sufficient
regulations exist to properly mitigate adverse impacts from the new
use.
The property is surrounded by the following zoning districts: to the north and
west is zoned RM and CBD (Central Business District); to the east is zoned RM
(Medium Density Residential) and to the south is RM and R-1-A (Single Family
Residential). The existing land uses are: retail/restaurants to the north; single
family and multi-family residences to the east and south; and multiple family
residences and retail to the west. The existing use is compatible with these uses
and has co-existed with the neighborhood for many years. With respect to the
Fisler Property, compatibility will be enhanced through specific regulations which
apply to the CF zoning district which, requires increased landscape perimeter
buffer treatment.
Section 2.4.5(D)(5) (Rezoning Findings):
Pursuant to Section 2.4.5(D)(5) (Findings), in addition to provisions of
Section 3.1.1, the City Commission must make a finding that the rezoning
fulfills one of the reasons for which the rezoning change is being sought.
These reasons include the following:
That the zoning had previously been changed, or was originally
established, in error;
That there has been a change in cimumstances which make the
current zoning inappropriate;
That the requested zoning is of similar intensity as allowed under the
Future Land Use Map and that it is more appropriate for the property
based upon circumstances particular to the site and/or
neighborhood.
The applicant has submitted the following statement indicating the reasons for
which the rezoning is being sought based on "b" above:
When the present zoning laws were enacted in the early 1990's, the Church
property located at 33 Gleason had already been in operation for heady 70
years. At that time, the property was zoned RM Multi-Family Residential (Medium
P&Z Board Staff Report
Rezoning from RM to CF for the First Presbyterian Church and Fisler Property
Page 6
Density). Since that time, several tracts adjacent to the Chumh property have
been acquired and made a part of the Church campus. The RM zoning is
inappropriate and the property should be zoned CF (Community Facilities).
The Fisler property located at 37 Gleason, and immediately adjacent to the south
of the main Church entrance, is under contract for sale to the Church, contingent
upon this rezoning app#cation. It is currently zoned RM. As a part of the Church
campus, this property should be changed to CF.
The basis for which the rezoning should be granted relates to both a and b in
that when the current zoning map was adopted in September 1990, the church
properties were somehow not changed to CF at the time, while most other
churches were changed to CF zoning. Since the church is in the process of
6xpanding its campus it is appropriate that a CF zoning classification be
assigned to both the existing campus and to the parcel being acquired.
The development proposal is not located within the geographical area requiring
review by the DDA (Downtown Development Authority).
Historic Preservation Board
The Historic Preservation Board reviewed the request at its meeting of June 6,
2001, and recommended approval.
Community Redevelopment Agency
This item is scheduled for the June 14, 2001, CRA meeting. Their
recommendation will be provided at the Planning and Zoning Board meeting.

P&Z Board Staff Report
Rezoning from RM to CF for the First Presbyterian Church and Fisler Property
Page 7
During the rezoning associated with the adoption of the LDR's other churches
and similar facilities were given CF zoning designations. Similarly, the existing
church campus at that time should have been given a CF designation to reflect
the existing use. The RM designation is only appropriate for small churches or
single purpose structures and not for large multipurpose churches. As the
church is in the process of expanding its campus it is appropriate to rezone the
properties to CF. Positive findings can be made with respect to LDR Section
3.1.1 (Required Findings), LDR Section 3.2.2 (Standards for Rezoning Actions),
LDR Section 2.4.5(D)(5) (Rezoning Findings), and the Goals, Objectives, and
Policies of the Comprehensive Plan for the proposed rezoning of the subiect
property. Therefore this rezoning can be recommended for approval based on
the findings outlined in this report.

Continue with direction.
Recommend to the City Commission rezoning of the subject property from
RM (Medium Density Residential) to CF (Community Facilities), based on
positive findings with respect to LDR Section 3.1.1 (Required Findings), LDR
Section 3.2.2 (Standards for Rezoning Actions), and LDR Section 2.4.5(D)(5)
(Rezoning Findings), and the Goals, Objectives and Policies of the

CONSIDERATION OF AN AMENDMENT TO LDR SECTIONS 4.4.11(B)(3), (C)
AND (H) REGARDING "BUSINESS AND PROFESSIONAL OFFICES" IN THE
NC (NEIGHBORHOOD COMMERCIAL) ZONING DISTRICT.
'Caribbean Blue Pools and Kellerco Construction, Inc." wish to locate at 2201 Seacrest
Boulevard. The property is located in the NC (Neighborhood Commercial) zoning district,
however professional offices for swimming pool sales and construction services is not
specifically listed as an allowable use in the NC zoning district. As the use is not specifically
listed, the applicant has requested a LDR text amendment to add professional executive offices
for swimming pool sales and construction services as a permitted use. The request is not to
establish a contractor's office with associated outside storage of materials, equipment and/or
vehicles.
Staff is recommending additional changes with respect to offices uses and restrictions on
outdoor storage of vehicles, equipment and materials. The amendment will allow business and
professional offices in general rather than listing specific types of office uses. Additional
background and an analysis of the request are found in the attached Planning and Zoning
Board staff report.

Planning and Zoning Board St~,f Report
LDR Amendment to Add Professional Executive Offices for Swimming Pool Sales and Construction
Services in the NC Zoning District
Page 2
Section 4.4.11(B)(3) of the NC zoning district currently allows the following as a
permitted use: "Business and Professional Offices, which provide direct services to
customers such as: travel agencies; outpatient medical services; real estate; finance
and accounting; community service (outreach) offices".
In the past, property owners have had difficulty leasing space due to the specificity of
the offices allowed. While the request is to add a specific use to those already listed, it
seems appropriate to amend the code for the NC zoning district to ,list Business and
Professional Offices as a permitted use, rather than list the specific types of business
and professional offices. This would be similar to both the RO (Residential Office) and
Old School Square Historic Arts District (OSSHAD) zoning districts, which list business
and professional offices as a permitted use. The purpose and intent of the RO zoning
district is similar to that of the NC zoning district in that the RO district is to
accommodate professional offices, which will meet the needs of nearby neighborhoods.
The RO zoning district specifically restricts any outdoor storage as a supplemental
district regulation.
A comparison of regulations of other municipalities was conducted as follows:
Boca Raton:
Business and Professional Offices are allowed in the NCBD (Neighborhood
Commercial Business District) zoning district as a permitted use while outdoor
storage of any kind including motor vehicles is listed as a prohibited use.
Boynton Beach:
Business and Professional Offices are allowed in the C-2 (Neighborhood
Commercial) zoning district as a permitted use while outdoor storage or display of
any type is listed as a prohibited use.
A business and/or professional office is a Iow intensity type of use, which commonly
serves a nearby neighborhood. Various types of business or professional offices may
include accountants, architects, attorneys, contractors, dentists, interior designers and
physicians. Typically, when these types of offices are located in or near a neighborhood
the residents of such neighborhood, will patronize these businesses.
There are concerns regarding the potential for outdoor storage of vehicles, equipment
and/or materials associated with a business and/or professional office. Storage of
vehicles and equipment was the primary reason why contractor's offices were not
specifically listed as a permitted use in the RO zoning district or the Old School Square
Historic Arts District (OSSHAD). However, contractor's business/administrative offices,
