MAYOR JAY ALPERIN OCr o t MEMORANDUM TO: David T. Harden, City Manager FROM: Richard C. Hasko, P.E., Acting Director Environmental Services (~ SUBJECT: EMPLOYEE SUGGESTION PROGRAM AWARD - PAUL DECAROLIS DATE: September 30, 1997 We were pleased to receive notification from the City's Human Resources Director that Mr. Paul DeCarolis' suggestion regarding the collection of Sewage Effluent Surcharges from Safety-Kleen Corporation is being recognized with a cash award. Through Mr. DeCarolis' efforts, the City is receiving approximately $20,000.00 in additional revenues which had gone uncollected prior to 1996. Safety-Kleen Corporation is a parts cleaning and chemical handling company that had a facility at 1855 S.W. 4th Avenue, north of the Solid Waste Authority Transfer Station. A hazardous material spill at the site, sometime prior to 1990, resulted in the installation of a ground water contamination removal system to mitigate damage from the spill event. System operation entails the pumping of groundwater from wells distributed around the site and routing flows through filters for removal of contaminants. While newer systems recycle the treated groundwater by recharging the local ground water table, the system installed at the Safety-Kleen site on S.W. 4th Avenue discharges treated groundwater directly to the City's sanitary sewer collection system. Under Chapter 53 of the City's Code of Ordinances, sewer customers discharging effluent in volumes of this magnitude are subject to surcharge assessments. Sewer surcharges are normally collected through the City's utility billing process, appearing as an itemized charge on customers' water and sewer bills. Since the Safety-Kleen commercial operation was closed some years ago, Utility Billing had no active customer account for the facility. Having neither active involvement in the permitting process nor an active utility account for billing of surcharge fees, Utility Billing had no way of knowing that fees were due and no established means of collecting them. Mr. DeCarolis discovered the oversight while doing routine research in performance of his duties as Industrial Pretreatment Inspector. While he was aware of the installation at the Safety Kleen site, he assumed that surcharges were being assessed per City Ordinances since the facility pre-dated his tenure with the City. While researching the City's Utility Billing electronic records for information regarding other matters related to his job, Mr. DeCarolis noticed that there was no active account for the Safety-Kleen facility. When he brought this to the attention of Utility Billing staff, they verified that no billing account existed and no surcharges were being assessed. At the request of Utility Billing, Mr. DeCarolis contacted the Safety-Kleen organization in notification of the required surcharges. He now monitors the discharge volume and calculates the surcharge for invoicing by Utility Billing on a monthly basis. Mr. DeCarolis' efforts resulted in the City's col l ection of $15,000.00 in surcharges from Safety-Kleen in the last three quarters of FY 1996. This prorates to an annual $20,000.00 revenue source. In accordance with Program Policies, Mr. DeCarolis is deserving of an award in the amount of 20% of one year's savings or, in this case, revenue or $4,000.00 Please place this item on the October 7, agenda for presentation of Mr. DeCarolis' award by Mayor Alperin.

The Code Enforcement Division cited the owner for permitting customer parking on the unimproved surface of the north portion of the property. The site plan that is the subject of this appeal (Exhibit A) was submitted to bring the property into compliance by reconfiguring and paving the portion of the north lot adjacent to Military Trail, and by providing driveway connections to the parking tier to the east. After lengthy discussion, SPRAB voted 7-0 to recommend that the modification request be approved based on positive findings with respect to Chapter 3 (Performance Standards) and Section 2.4.5(G) (5) of the Land Development Regulations and the policies of the Comprehensive Plan, subject to conditions as outlined in the attached materials. Recommend approval of the Site Plan Review and Appearance Board's decision and approve the modification for the Boy's Farmers Market, subject to SPRAB's findings and conditions. I TO: DAVID T. HARDEN, CITY MANAGER THRU' DIANE DOM INGUEZ, DIRECTOR DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING AND ZONING "" / FROM: JEFFREY A. COSTELLO'~ SENIOR PLANNER SUBJECT: MEETING OF OCTOBER 7, 1997 APPEAL OF THE SITE PLAN REVIEW AND APPEARANCE BOARD'S CONDITION OF APPROVAL ASSOCIATED WITH A MINOR SITE PLAN MODIFICATION FOR THE BOY'S FARMERS MARKET. The action requested of the City Commission is consideration of an appeal of the Site Plan Review and Appearance Board's condition of approval associated with a minor site plan modification for The Boy's Farmers Market. The subject property is located on the east side of Military Trail, approximately 2,100 feet north of Atlantic Avenue, within the GC (General Commercial) zone district. SPRAB action was taken on September 17, 1997. The focus of the applicant's appeal relates to the condition of approval to reconfigure the existing parking lot adjacent to Military Trail. The development proposal encompasses the north portion of The Boy's Farmers Market property. The proposed modification consists of the following: · Construction of a 68-space parking lot containing 36 permanent spaces on the west side of the site and 32 temporary spaces on the east side of the site; · Approval of two coolers and a shed which have already been installed; and, · Installation of associated landscaping. The north half of the site is currently unimproved (shellrock) and is being utilized for parking. Site plan approval for this portion of the property was never granted. Site plan approval was obtained for the south half of the property on July 13, 1994, for construction of the existing market as well as the associated parking and landscaping. The parking lot included 2 two-way driveways on Military Trail and within the parking lot. The improvements associated with the site plan have been installed. However, on the south half of the property, the Market has implemented their own parking City Commission Documentation Meeting of October 7, 1997 Appeal of SPRAB's Decision - The Boy's Farmers Market Minor Site Plan Modification Page 2 circulation/management plan, which restricts use of the south driveway to ingress only, and the north driveway to egress only. In addition, the drive aisles between the parking rows have been marked one-way (north only from the ingress drive) creating a confusing on-site circulation pattern. Further, patrons park along the south side of the ingress drive (spaces are not marked) contributing to vehicular congestion for incoming traffic. This circulation pattern is inconsistent with the approved site development plan and has been implemented without City approval. There have been numerous complaints made to the City Manager's office regarding the existing situation. The Code Enforcement Division has cited the property owner for making the changes on the south half of the property and for parking on the unimproved surface on the north portion of the property. The site plan that is the subject of this appeal was submitted to bring the property into compliance by paving the north section. With review of this proposal, it is appropriate to revisit the existing parking and circulation on the south portion of the site. In order to mitigate the existing traffic hazards and provide a safe traffic circulation on the site, modifications to the existing parking lot should be made at this time, in accordance with attached Exhibit A. The changes include reconfiguring the portion of the existing parking lot adjacent to Military Trail and providing driveway connections to the parking tier to the east. This configuration will provide a much longer stacking area on the site, thereby reducing the backing-up of vehicles onto Military Trail as customers wait to turn into the first parking tier. At its meeting of September 17, 1997, the Site Plan Review and Appearance Board reviewed the site plan modification request to install the north parking lot. There was no public testimony regarding the request. The applicant's agent/engineer, Gerry Church, made the following comments as to why he felt the existing parking should not be reconfig ured: · The addition of 68 spaces on the north end and installation of "No Parking" signs along the access drives will alleviate the congestion at the driveways. · The directional signs and pavement markings installed on the south parking lot will be removed and replaced with directional signage and pavement markings per the approved plans. · The existing parking lot was approved by the City, and the owner does not feel it is reasonable to require modification to the existing parking lot layout. · The changes are costly and disruptive resulting in the loss of 6 spaces at the front of the store. In addition to the above, the agent requested deferral of the reconfiguration to allow a traffic consultant to study the situation, and suggested that security personnel could be hired to direct traffic. The Board discussed the proposal and felt that the existing configuration is a safety concern, especially with stacking onto Military Trail, and did not feel that the additional City Commission Documentation Meeting of October 7, 1997 Appeal of SPRAB's Decision - The Boy's Farmers Market Minor Site Plan Modification Page 3 68 spaces would alleviate the existing traffic circulation problems. The Board did not feel that the construction of the reconfiguration would be significantly disruptive to the facility. They stated that the improvements to the north parking lot would attract even more customers, and that to defer the reconfiguration would be more disruptive as it would occur during the peak season. After lengthy discussion, SPRAB voted 7-0 to approve the site plan modification request based upon positive findings with respect to Chapter 3 (Performance Standards) and Section 2.4.5(G)(5) of the Land Development Regulations and the policies of the Comprehensive Plan subject to the following conditions: 1. That revised plans be submitted addressing the Site Plan Technical Items of the Staff Report; 2. That the site plan configuration depicted on Exhibit A of this report be implemented; and, 3. That the temporary parking lot (east side of the north lot) be allowed to exist until September 1, 2000, at which time the parking lot is to be constructed within 6 months of that date (by March 1, 2001), or the parking use is to cease pending submittal of future development proposals. The Board stated that they would consider an alternative proposal by the applicant's engineer if it addressed their concerns and was a better alternative than the Exhibit presented by staff. A. Continue with direction. B. Uphold the Site Plan Review and Appearance Board's decision and approve the site plan modification for The Boy's Farmers Market subject to SPRAB's findings and conditions. C. Reverse the Site Plan Review and Appearance Board's decision and approve the site plan modification for The Boy's Farmers Market subject to the conditions indicated by SPRAB, excluding the condition regarding reconfiguration of the existing parking lot adjacent to Military Trail. Uphold the Site Plan Review and Appearance Board's decision and approve the site plan modification for The Boy's Farmers Market subject to SPRAB's findings and conditions.

Commencing with an outline o~ a project, a site plan was prepared and submitted through the local government for staff comments, Planning and Zoning board review, with final approval by the Elected Officials. Complete engineering plans and specifications were prepared for the work. Bids were obtained and construction management services were provided. Computer applications, mainly Autocad, are used for design and drawing of the plans. , FROM : G B CHURCH ENGINEER PHONE NO, : +407 2787401 Oct. 07 1997 10:30AM P3 1989-Date Consulting Civil Engineer - Private Practice. 1978-1989 City Engineer/Director of Public Works City of Delray Beach, Florida. 1976-1978 Consulting Engineer - Private Practice. 1974-1976 Director of PUblic Service, City of Boca Raton, Florida. 1969-1974 Director of Public Works, Utilities and City Engineer, City of Deerfield Beach, Florida. 1968-1969 Director of Public Works/Assistant City Manager, City of Jacksonville Beach, Florida 1964-1968 City Engineer/Chief Building Official, city of Palatka, Florida. 1959-1964 Civil Engineer, City of St..

Your submittal has been reviewed by the various City departments for technical compliance. Attached is a copy of'comments which are a result of staff's review of the proposal. General Assessment While the submittal, is adequate for review, we have identified some items which will require modifications to the site plan. These items include the following: A. Given the current parking demand of the existing 11,96t3 sq.ft, facility/operation, the construction of the proposed 4,250 sq.ff, stand-alone commercial structure will not be supported, and thus sh.oq!d be deleted from the plans. B. In order to provide sufficient turning radius from the north parking area to the ingress/egress drive and to prevent parallel parking opposite the proposed perpendicular parking spaces, the parking lot must be designed to provide a double-loaded perpendicular parking aisle with a drive aisle on the nodh side of the perpendicular spaces with parallel parking along the north side of the drive aisle (see Exhibit A).

After due consideration by the owner, the Site Plan has been revised as follows: 1. The proposed stand-alone commercial structure has been deleted. 2. T. he proposed parking lot on the north side has been reconfigured as per you request. 3. The owner is not prepared to make the requested changes to 'the Site Plan for the existing parking lot for several reasons: A total of 68 parking spaces shall be provided with the proposed parking lots on the north side. This should alleviate the congestion at the driveway entrances. As you requested there shall be no parking allowed along the main access driveways. Further the Site Plan as existing was approved and it does not appear reasonably to require a modification to the existing parking layout. The owner is also limited financially to make the changes which are costly and disruptive resulting in the loss of six Parking spaces at the front of the store. 4. Enclosed is a letter from the owner noting a time frame of three years for the temporary parking lot on the north side. 5. The owner will have the dumpsters removed, and he has requested that the lessee use the trash compactor for all trash, as originally approved on the Site Plan. 6. All unused coolers and other discarded material shall be removed from the rear unloading area. Please note the pallets and crates are re-usable and they are orderly stacked and stored there to be picked up by the vendors, 7. Parking of trucks associated with the Boy's Farmers Market shall be on the' east side of the building only. 8. The refrigeration units, coolers and storage shed have been added to the Site Plan for inclusion as part of the Site Plan Modifications. 9. Traffic control and markings have been revised on the Site Plan as follows: i) The access driveway along the south side and in front of the building has been marked for two-way traffic. The "No Parking" restrictions shall be enforced along this driveway, ii) The access driveway along the north side of the building has been marked for two-way traffic for the entire length.

Atlantic Avenue, within the GC (General CommerCial) Zone. district. ~,..,.~ ~-~,'..'~,~.~~ , ~.~.~. , ,-..., ......... ~,~ ,-. .,.. ..... ~...~ . , . . ..... The proposal incorporates the north half (1.06 acres) of the overall 2.64 acre Boy's Farmers Market Plat. ~13...e.._,subject.preperbj.,is~-¢u~:re. ntly .utilized as -an unimproved parking ar. ea which:was i~sta!led without obtaining sitePlan approval. The property .was development as a nursery while under Palm Beach County jurisdiction, however the property was utilized as a farmers market (retail) for many years. The farmers market (retail) was considered nonconforming while under County jurisdiction as retail sales is not an allowable use under the County AR' (Agricultural Residential) Zen!rig designation. On l~ebruary. 8, 1994, .applications' were submitted for a Future Land Use Map amendment from County C/8 to City GC (General Commercial) and annexation with an initial zoning designation of GC (General Commercial). The Future Land Use Map amendment and annexation only related to the parcels that comprised the southern half of the Boy's 1.58 acre parcel. At its meeting of March 21, 1994, the Planning and Zoning Board recommended approval of the requests. Dudng the public hearing, area residents expressed concerns over noise associated with the market, and over the existing traffic circulation at Military Trail and Lake Front Boulevard/Post Office (Highpoint Lake Drive). The applicant's representative stated that an alternative access was bei.ng designed and that the noise would be addressed with the proposed site plan. The Palm Beach County Traffic Division issued a permit to install a new driveway at'the south end of the north parcel thereby eliminating their concerns. At its meeting of April 12, 1994, the City Commission held first reading of the'FLUM amendment and annexations requests. At that meeting, the property owner stated that he would like to also annex the north parcel, which contains a 30' access easement along it's north side for access to two homes to the east. However, by annexing the SPRAB Staff Report The Boy's Farmers Market - Minor Site Plan Modification Page 2 north parcel, an enclave would have been created as it would be necessary for the residences, which are under County jurisdiction, to drive through the City to access their property. The Commission then postponed first reading to allow modification of the ordinance and re-advertising. Subsequent to the City Commission meeting, staff met with the applicant on several occasions to discuss the alternatives for annexing the north parcel. On May 29, 1994, the applicant submitted a site plan application to construct a new farmers market on the south portion of the. overall preperty, in order to prevent further-delay of the project, the property owner Chose to pro.¢eed .with annexing the south parcel and submitted a separate application te annex the north parcel. On July 5, 19.94, the City 'Cemmissien.approved.the Future Land Use Ma.p amendment and annexation with initial zoning of GC (General' Commercial) for the south portion of the property. On July 13, .1994, the Site Plan Review and AppearanceBoard (SPRAB)approved the site plan for "The Boy's FarmerS"Market"i"which incorporated the south half of the site. The development proposal incorporated the-following: El Demolition of the existing farmers market and removal of the existing billboard, office trailer and shed along the south property line; El. Construction of a ~13,218 sq.ft, farmers.market/produce store; El. Construction: of a~65-space:paVed parking lot with. an' access drive on the south side ...of.the north p..a,rcel; E~. Elimination of the existing, driveway (centrally located) and the provision of a new driveway at the southwest corner of the site; and, El Installation of associated landscaping and a refuse storage area (compactor). On August 16, .lg94, the City Commission approved (on second reading) the Future Land Use Map amendment and Annexation with initial zoning of GC (General Commercial) for the north portion of The Boy's Farmers Market. The enclave issue was resolved by not including the 30' access easement along the north side of the property with the annexation request. On June 25, 1995, 8PRAB approved a change to the building elevation associated with a non-impacting site plan modification to reduce the building size to 11,986 sq.ft. The improvements associated with the south parcel were constructed in 1995. At its meeting of December 5, lg95, the City Commission approved the final boundary plat for the Boy's Farmers Market. The current proposal is to construct the parking lot on the north portion of the pr?perry and is now before the Board for action.

The prbposed modification consists of the following: Q Construction of a 68-space parking lot containing 36 permanent spaces on the west side of the site and 32temporary spaces onthe east. side of the site; Q Approval of. two :¢eoiem aad :a, shed which were previously installed; and, r~ Installation ef associated landscaping, except within the temporary parking lot where sod will. be, pr..o.v, ided;within ~the~landse, ape islands. COMPLIANCE WITH ,LAND DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS Items identified in the Land Development Regulatio,ns shall specifically be addressed by the body taking final 'action on the site and development application/request.. Parking Pursuant to Section 4.6.9(C)(3)(a), grocery/produce stores shall provide 4.5 parking spaces per-1,000 sq.ff, of total.floor area. The 'existing bUilding contains 11,986 sq.ff. thereby requiring'~a 'totar.'Of· 54 ~parking spaces and 65 parking spaces exist in the improved Pa.rking lot west of the building. While 'the site ex~ds the Parking requirement by 11 spaces,, the. parking ~demand"for thiS'facility far exCeeds the spaces provided resulting in a significant parking deficiency on this site. The underimproved (shellrock on!y)north portion of the property has been utilized to accommodate the overflow parking for this facility. However, the northern parcel has been used without first obtaining site. plan approval nor constructing the parking lot to meet City standards. With this proposal, 68 additional parking spaces will be installed (36 permanent, 32 temporary) for a total of 133 spaces. The applicant has indicated the west portion of the parking lot will be constructed per City standards at this time, and has reques{ed the east portion, not be required to meet City standards until September 1, 2000. Currently, there is a 30' wide access easement which runs along the north side of the property providing access to the two residential properties to the east. The parking lot has been designed with parallel spaces on the north side of the parking lot as perpendicular spaces will encroach into this easement. The property owner is attempting to purchase the residential properties to the east. If purchased the land will be incorporated into this development, the easement abandoned, and perpendicular parking installed. SPRAB Staff Report The Boy's Farmers Market - Minor Site Plan Modification Page 4 Special Landscape Setbacks Pursuant to Section 4.3.4(H)(6)(b), along Military Trail from the L-38 Canal northward to the L-30 Canal, a special landscape area shall be provided. This landscape area shall be the smaller distance of either 30' or 10% of the average depth of the property; however, in no case shall the landscape be less than 10'. Within this area, no paving shall be allowed except for driveways and walkways which shall be generally perpendicular to the property line. As the depth of the property is 358.36', a 30' landscape buffer is required and has been provided. In conjunction with the construction of the Boy's Farmers Market facility, the perimeter' landscaping adjacent to the north portion cf:the site~was to be installed. Some of the landscaping has been installed including sod and trees however, the required hedge has not been provided. Regardless of the outcome of'the request~ the installation of the hedge is. required and is attached as.a condition. Open Space Pursuant to LDR Section 4.3.4(K), 25% of non-vehicular open space is required. The development proposal 'provides for 26.5% of open space. Site Li_ohting Site lighting, fixtures in compliance with LDR Section 4,6.8 (Lighting) will be provided. The. light, fixtures will..be consistent with those installed within the-Boy's Farmers Market parking 10t. It is. noted the trees and light pole locations conflict with one another therefore the plans must be revised accordingly. Site Plan Technical Items: The following are items that. do not require specific action of the Board, however, the items must be addressed with the submittal of revised plans. 1. At the east and west sides of the parking areas where the perpendicular parking space backs-up to the parallel parking space, a 24' X6' maneuvering area must be provided. This will result in a reduction of 2 spaces. 2. The trees and light pole locations conflict with one another therefore the plans must be revised accordingly. 3. Provide stop bars at the ends of the drive aisles and at internal intersections. 4. Signage indicates "Do Not Enter" at both access points go delivery area. Signage that states "Delivery Vehicles Only" is more appropriate. 5. Lake Worth Drainage District Permit must be provided. SPRAB S~aff Report The Boy's Farmers Market - Minor Site Plan Modit'~cation Page 5 6. Cross sections of all perimeter swales must be provided. 7. The engineering plans must indicate how stormwater from the temporary parking lot will be stored. Perimeter Landscaping Along Military Trail (west p. roperty line), on the interior edge of the 30' landscape strip Laurel Oak trees,every 30' have.been installed. The Co.plum hedge required with the approved of the Bo,y's Farmers Market has net been installed and is attached as a condition of approval. Within.the 10' wide landscape strips along the north, and east sides 'of the ProPerty a Cocoplum hedge has been installed with..Mahegahy trees every 25' along the north property line and Laurel Oaks every 25' on the east side of the property. The required hedge along Military Trail must be installed regardless of the Board's action. Internal Landscaping Within the landscape strip along the south side of the proposed permanent parking lot Pink Tabebuia trees with Ixora Nora Grant are to be installed. Cassis trees will be installed primarily within the landscape islands while Pink Tabebuia trees will be insta!!~d w. ithin:~t~e;!~ndscape .striPs. Within the.temporary parking lot, landscape stdps will be installed ifor 'delineation purposes only and will be sodded, A landscape plan which will be' ii:nplemented pending renewal of a. lease agreement by September 1, 2000 is to be Provided and is attached as a condition of approval. 'r~affic Circulation Pattern &~Parking Configuration The north half of the site is currently unimproved (shellrock) and is being utilized for parking. No site plan approval for this portion of the property has been obtained. On the south half of the property the Market implemented their own parking circulation/management plan, which restricts use of the south driveway to ingress only, and the north driveway egress only. In addition, the drive aisles between the parking rows have been marked one-way (north only from the ingress drive) creating a confusing on-site circulation pattern. Further, patrons park along the south side of the ingress drive (spaces are not marked) contributing to vehicular congestiOn for incoming traffic. This circulation pattern is inconsistent with the approved site development plan and has been implemented without City approval. There have been numerous complaints made to the City Manager's office regarding the existing situation. SPRAB Staff Report The Boy's Farmers Market - Minor Site Plan Modification Page 6 The Code Enforcement Division has cited the property owner for making the changes on the south half of the property and for parking on an unimproved surface on the north portion of the property. With review of this proposal to install parking on the north portion of the property it' is appropriate to revisit the existing parking and circulation on the south portion of the site. The applicant has stated that the directional signs and pavement marking installed by the Boy's will be removed and replaced with directional signage and pavement markings per the approved plans, in addition, "no parking" signs will .be placed along the main access drives. While this should help matters additional measures should be taken to mitigate off-site stacki..n..g pro. blems 'into Militan/Trail which occur on a daily basis. The ba'¢k~up has resUltedi~ast,.hisfacil!tygenerates more traffic and'has a greater parking demand'than a normal, retail use for which it has been designed.. This back-up appears to be the result, eft. the .omsiteparking-lotdesign Which allows Vehicles to stop in the main drive aisle (.seuth~pr, eperty'line)and, attempt:to.travel north, into the parking rows.

Many.. complaints have been made regardingthis:.back-up as well as on-site traffic circulation. The applicant feels that the additional 68 spaces and installation of no parking signs .along the access drives, will~ a!leViate the congestion'at the ddveways. The' existing parking, lot',was~.:recently'~-!apP~',~ed and'.:the owner does:not feeF~if· i§' rea{onable '.to requiremodification to theexisti~g.'parking lot layout: Alse;=the changes are:costlY and disruptive i:esulting in the loss of..6 spaces.at::'the front ef the-store. HoWever, the proposed new spaces are not new as the area currently accommodates this number of parking spaces on an unimproved surface. Further, as long as the option exists to access the western, parking rows people will exercise it and the stacking problem will persist. The. cost for the.changes, is not exorbitant. VVhile 6 spaces will be eliminated, they will be replaced in the north parking area. Further, the 6 spaces are located at the west end of the property and not prime spots directly in front of the building. VVhile considerable disruption will occur with the Construction of the north parking area, disruption associated with the proposed changes to the existing parking area should be minimal. In order to mitigate the existing traffic hazards and provide a safe traffic circulation on the site, modifications to the existing parkin, g lot must be made at this time in accordance with Exhibit A, and this requirement is attached as a condition of approval. Temporary_ Parking Lot The property owner indicated .the west portion of the parking lot will be constructed per City standards and has requested deferral of constructing the east portion to City standards until September 1, 2000. The east portion will be paved with a compacted subgrade rather than the shellrock subgrade, and will provide curbing and sod areas. SPRAB Staff Report The Boy's Farmers Market - Minor Site Plan Modification Page 7 The basis for the request centers around a leasing agreement between the Boys Farmers Market and the property owner. If the Boy's Farmers Market renews their lease for this parcel in September, 2000, the parking lot will be constructed to City standards. If the lease is not renewed the property owner intends to construct a building in the location of the temporary parking lot. The property owner realizes that given the existing parking demands of the existing facility, the City may not support construction of a new building or a building addition. This position may change in the future, if additional property is incorporated into this site. Based upon the above, it is appropriate to allow construction of a temporary parking lot pending outcome of the lease renewal, Pursuant to Section 3.1.1 (Required Findings), prior te the approval of development applications, certain findings mus-t~ be made. in. a. form which is part of the official record. This may be achieved through .information on the application, .wri.tten material, s ~-s.ubmitte, d by the applicant, the-staff report, or minutes.

The development proposal involves the construction of a 68-space parking lot permanent, 32 temporary) and associated landscape areas. Pursuant to LDR Section 2.4.5(G)(5), this minor modification does not signif~,antly impact the previous findings. The following relates to the proposed improvements.

' ......................... ~ ''~' "~'~"' h ......................... ~t~'~:" The action recluested of the City Commission is cons_Ideraflon of an ~ of the Site Plan Review and Appearance Board's condition of a~proval associated with a minor site plan modification for .The Boy's Farmers Market. The subject property is located on the east side of Military Trail, approximately 2,100 feet north of Atlantic Avenue, within the GC (General Commercial) zone district. SPRAB aotion was taken on September 17, 1997. The focus of the applicant's appeal relates to the condition of approval to reconflgure the existing parking lot a~ljacent to Military Trall. ~~..'~.~<~. .. The development proposal encompasses the north portion of The Boy's Farmers Market. property: The proposed modification consists of the following: · Construction of a 68-space parking lot contelnlng 36 permanent spaces on the west side of the site and 32 temporary spaces on the east side of the site; · Approval of two coolers and a shed which have already been installed; and, · Installation of associated landscaping. The north half of the site is currently unimproved (sheilrock) and is being utilized for parking. Site plan approval for this portion of the property was hever granted. Site plan approval was obtained for the south half of the property on July 13, 1994, for construction of the existing market as well as the associated parking and landscaping. The pa~'king lot included 2 two-way driveways on Military Trail and within the parking lot. The improvements associated with the site plan have been installed. However, on the south hal~ of the property, the Marl<et has irr~mert~ed their own parking ' City Commission Documentation Meeting of October 7, 1997 Appeal of SPRAIB's Decision - The Boy's Farmers Market Minor Site Plan Modification Page 2 circulation/management plan, which restricts use of the south driveway to ingress only, and the north driveway to egress only. In addition, the drive aisles between the parking rows have been marked one-way (north only from the Ingress drive) creating a confusing on-site circulation pattern. Further, patrons park along the south side of the ingress drive (spaces are not marked) contributing to vehicular congestion for incoming traffic. This circulation pattern is inconsistent with the approved site development plan and has been implemented without City approval. There have been numerous complaints made to the City Manager's office regarding the existing situation. The Code Enforcement Division has cited the property 'owner for making the changes on the south half of the property and for parking on the unlmproved surface on the north portion of the property. The site plan that is the subject of this appeal was submitted t~> · bring the property into compliance by paving the north section. With review of this proposal, It Is appropriate to revlslt the existing parking and circulation on the south portion of the site. In order to mitigate the existing traffic hazards .and provide a safe traffic circulation on the site, modifications to the existing parking Itt shoul~l be made at this time, in accordance With attached Exhibit A. The.changes include reconfiguring the portion of the existing parking Itt adjacent to Military Trail and provid!ng driveway connections to the parking tier to the east. This configuration will provide a muoh longer staCking area on the site, thereby reducing the backing-up of vehicles onto Military Trail as customers walt to turn into the first parking tier~ At Its meeting of September 17, 1907, the Site Plan Review and Appearance Bdard reviewed the site plan modification request to install the north parking Itt. There was no public testimony regarding the request. The applicant's agent/engineer, Gerry Church, made the following comments as to why he felt the existing parking should not be reconfigured: · The addition of 68 spaces on the' north end and Installation of 'No Parking" signs along the access drives will alleviate the congestion at the driveways. · The directional signs and pavement marklngs Installed on the ~outh parking Itt will be removed and replaced with directional signage and pavement markings per the approved plans. · The existing parking Itt was approved by the City, and the owner does not feel it is reasonable to require modif'mation to the existing parking itt layout. · The'changes are cosily and disruptive resulting in the loss of 6 spaces at the fl'tnt of the store. In addition to the above, the agent reques{ed deferral of the reconfigurafion to allow a traffic consultant to study the situation, and suggested that security personnel could be hired to direct traffic. The Board discussed the proposal and felt that the e~dsting configurs{lon is s safety concern, especially with stacking onto Mill{sty Trail, and did not feel that the additional · City Commission Documentation Meeting of October 7. 1997 Appeal of SPRAB's Decision - The Boy's Farmers Market Minor Site Plan Modification Page 3 68 spaces would alleviate the existing traffic circulation problems. The Board did not feel that the construction of the reconfiguration would be significantly disruptive to the facility. They stated that the improvements to the north parking lot would attract even more customers, and that to defer the reconfiguration would be more disruptive as it would occur during the peak season. After lengthy discussion, SPRAB voted 7-0 to approve the site plan modification request based upon Positive findings with respect to Chapter 3 (Performance Standards) and Section 2.4.5(G)(5) of the Land Development Regulations and the policies of the Comprehensive Plan subject to the following conditions: 1. That revised plans be submitted addressing .the Site Plan Technical Items of the Staff Report; 2. That the site plan configuration depicted on Exhibit A of this report be implemented; and, 3. Th'at the temporary parking lot (east side of the north lot) be allowed to exist Until September 1, 20q0, at which time the parking lot is to be constructed wlthln 6 months of that date (by March 1, .2001), or the parking use is to cease pending submittal of future development proposals. The Board stated that they would consider an alternative proposal by the appllcant's engineer if it addressed their concerns and was a barfer alternative than the Exhibit presented by staff.

As consideration for granting the necessary access easement to Ocean Properties, an approximate figure of $75,000 was mentioned as payment to the City, subject to further discussion. Ocean Properties subsequently indicated they would be willing to pay $50,000. The City Attorney drafted the attached access easement agreement which outlines the responsibilities of each party. Ocean Properties has never signed the agreement and it has not been brought back to the Commission for consideration. Ocean Properties has recently contacted us with an alternative proposal. They intend to do all of the parking around the hotel with a brick surface. The brick surface is more expensive than asphalt. Ocean Properties has offered to include the driveway and City parking spaces in brick in return for reducing their payment to $25,000. I recommend that the City Commission accept the offer to do all of the resurfacing in brick, but request consideration in the amount of $30,000 from Ocean Properties. ref:agmemol0 Schmidt - Yes; Mr. Egan - Yes.

PROPOSAL FOR A COMBINED ACCESSWAY/CAMINO REAL HOTEL AND THE CITY'S NORTH PARKING LOTS: Consider authorizing Camino Real Hotel to file an application for a modification to their expan- sion plans which proposes a joint accessway to the City's and the hotel's parking lots. The City Manager feels this is certainly of value and stated that the City should receive some consideration if they allow the use of this driveway by the hotel. The City Manager stated that while discussing this with the CRA director the City figured approximately $75,000 (would include maintenance of the entire lot). However, this is subject to further discussion and negotiation. If this were to be done, then the City's parking spaces in the lot would continue as metered spaces. Mr. Ellingsworth moved to authorize the filing of the application that affects the City's portion of the property, seconded by Mr. Egan. Upon roll call the Commission voted as follows: Mayor Alperin - Yes; Mr. Schmidt - Yes; Mr. Egan - Yes; Mr. Ellingsworth - Yes; Mr. Randolph - Yes. Said motion passed with a 5 to 0 vote. 13.

Thc CRA staff as well as Janet Onnen, Marjorie Ferrer, and others will be attending the annual Florida Redevelopment Association/Main Street conference at that time.

As you know, the Parking Management Team held a workshop with John Edwards, the parking consultant we contracted with to do a downtown study, on Saturday, September 27, 1997. It was Mr. Edwards' recommendation that we address the following critical items with City Commission as soon as possible: 1. A full-time parking manager 2. Valet parking contracts 3. Temporary parking lots 4. Changing 2-hour parking on Atlantic Avenue to 1-hour 5. Stricter enforcement of parking violations Please let me know if we can schedule a workshop with City Commission on October 28, 1997.

In these instances, we have closed City Hall on the preceding Monday or following Friday and encouraged employees to take the day off by using vacation time. This year Christmas and New Year's Day both fall on Thursday. I am recommending that City Hall be closed on Friday, December 26th, with employees using vacation time for this additional day off. Several employees have inquiried if the same arrangement is anticipated for the New Year's holiday. I am somewhat concerned that if the City is closed on January 2nd, it may be disruptive to businesses which are planning to return to work that Friday. Since the Mayor and City Commissioners probably have a better feel for this situation than I do, I am requesting direction on whether City Hall should be closed on Friday, January 2, 1998, in the same manner as is planned for December 26th. ref:agmemo9 I:ITY OF DELRRY BEREH CITY ATTORNEY'S OFFICE TELEPHONE 561/243-7090 · FACSIMILE 561/278-4755 Writer's Direct Line: 561/243-7091 DELRAY BEACH ~ MEMORANDUM AiI.Amedca City 'llllJr''''' DATE: September 30, 1997 TO: City Commission 1993 FROM: Susan A. Ruby, City Attorney SUBJECT: Garlands v, City. of Defray Beach As you may recall, this case stems from a suit alleging that the Plaintiffs should be reimbursed for pension contributions they made after attaining thirty (30) years of credited service in the General Employee Pension Plan. The City ordinance amended in December of 1993 stopped contributions from employees who attained thirty (30) years of credited service. The Commission did not make the ordinance retroactive. One of the Plaintiffs attained thirty (30) years of service under the plan on February 22, 1986 and continued to contribute to the pension plan until December of 1993 in the amount of $12,230.94. The other Plaintiff attained thirty (30) years of credited service under the pension plan on May 24, 1986 and continued to contribute to the plan until December 8, 1993 in the amount of $10,185.53. The City has filed a Summary Judgment in this case. Our office, in concurrence with outside counsel, feels that the City's chances of success are quite good. Our office has received a settlement proposal in this case in the amount of $22,000.00 including attorney's fees and costs. The Commission may either approve, deny or provide a counter offer to the settlement offer at the Commission's discretion.

Certified Receipt Number MEMORANDUM TO: MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSIONERS FROM: ~ITY MJ~AGER SUBJECT: AGENDA ITEM #/0. ~.- REGULAR MEETING OF OCTOBER 7, 1997 LDRAMENDMENTS RE: RM ZONING DISTRICT STANDARDS (ORDINANCE NO. 41-97 / ORDINANCE NO. 42-97) DATE: OCTOBER 2, 1997 Attached is documentation from the Planning Department concerning proposed amendments to the Medium Density Residential (RM) zoning district. The Planning and Zoning Board formally considered these amendments on September 15, 1997. The Board voted 6 to 0 to recommend approval of the amendments which provide for performance standards and increased requirements for recreational amenities. By a 4 to 2 vote, the Board voted to recommend that the amendments to the Development Standards Matrix which would increase the minimum dwelling unit sizes be denied. In view of the Planning and Zoning Board's recommendation, two ordinances have been prepared for the Commission's consideration. Ordinance No. 41-97 reflects only those amendments recommended for approval by the P&Z Board. Ordinance No. 42-97 reflects the amendments for both performance standards and increased requirements for recreational amenities, as well as increased minimum square footage requirements for dwelling units. At first reading on September 23, 1997, the Commission passed both ordinances by unanimous vote for the purpose of accepting public comment at a public hearing prior to final consideration. I recommend that the City Commission accept the Planning and Zoning Board's recommendation to approve Ordinance No. 41-97 and deny Ordinance No. 42-97 on second and final reading. TO: DAVID T. HARDEN, CITY MANAGER ~'~ ~ ~'~ ~_ .. FROM: DIANE DOMINGUEZ, PLANNING AND ZONING DIRECTOR ~ SUBJECT: CITY COMMISSION MEETING OF SEPTEMBER 23, 1997 LDR AMENDMENTS RE: RM ZONING DISTRICT STANDARDS The action requested of the City Commission is approval of amendments to Land Development Regulations (LDR) Section 4.4.6, Medium Density (RM) Zoning District; and consideration of amendments to Section 4.3.4, Development Standards Matrix, regarding m~nimum unit sizes. The RM zoning district currently provides for a density range of 6 to 12 dwelling units per acre. The basis for determining the appropriate density is a finding that the development is "harmonious with adjacent properties." The proposed amendment would provide performance standards for evaluating whether or not a particular density is appropriate. The standards are intended to result in a project design that will mitigate the impacts of the additional units. The amendments also propose additional requirements for recreational facilities, and an increase in the minimum square footage of 3- and 4-bedroom units. The attached Planning and Zoning Board staff report provides a more detailed description and analysis of the changes. The P & Z Board considered these amendments at its meeting of September 15, 1997. There was no public testimony regarding the changes. The Board voted as follows: · Approval (6-0) of amendments to the RM district, providing for performance standards and increased requirements for recreational amenities. ·Denial (4-2) of amendments to the Development Standards Matrix which would increase the minimum dwelling unit sizes. By separate motion, · Approve the amendments to LDR Section 4.6.6, RM Zoning District, as attached. · Deny the amendment to LDR Section 4.3.4, regarding minimum unit sizes.

AMENDMENT TO LAND DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS SECTIONS 4.4.6 MEDIUM DENSITY (RM) ZONING DISTRICT; AND 4.3.4 DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS MATRIX Last year, as part of the preparation of the North Federal Highway Redevelopment Plan, staff developed standards and regulations for a new zoning district, RH, High Density Residential. The district established performance standards that would have to be met if the project density were to exceed twelve units per acre. While the zoning district was ultimately not passed, the City Commission directed that similar performance standards be incorporated into the RM (Medium Density Residential) zoning district regulations. Other comments have been made in the past regarding the need to increase the requirements for recreational amenities, and the need to increase minimum unit sizes. The proposed amendment was initially discussed at the June 9, 1997 workshop meeting of the Planning and Zoning Board. Modifications have been made in the interim to better cladfy some of the standards. The proposed strike-through and underlined version of the amendment is attached. ::::::::::::::::::::: : : :~ ?: :::::::::.:::.::'::~..! ~ ~ .~:':..'.' .," ~::!:.:::~.-%:~!.:~ .::..':.::.:::./:.>:~ ~ i~.-':~:i:~.?..:::.-.-.:-.::~:'.-'~i:-:'ii~:'~:-.%?:~:.::.:: ~ :!..?.. !!:':::'.:~::'¢..:';.::~.':'&'./...':.':':.::~!?...:.-.,.::::",.'::':. :!~ :~.-'..~.:::.'.<:,'..'..&::~:.:::.::.,'.:~:!:~.::::::.,'. :~¢-.': :.'.-."'~..'.'¢.:."!::~ The current development standards for the RM zoning district provide for a range in densities from a minimum of six (6) units per acre to a maximum of twelve (12) units per acre. In order to exceed the base density, a finding must be made by the approving body (in most cases, the Site Plan Review and Appearance Board), that the resulting development is harmonious with adjacent properties. This standard is vague and somewhat arbitrary, and has at times created difficulties in its implementation. The proposed amendment would create a set of performance standards that must be met in order to increase density beyond the minimum. The standards are intended to lessen the impact of the additional density by requiring measures to control traffic speeds and volume, reduce the overall mass of the structures through better design, and ensure compatibility with adjacent development through increased setbacks and buffers. In addition, the standard for recreational amenities has been amended to require that facilities be provided for children of all age ranges. Planning and Zoning Board Staff Report LDR Amendments - 4.4.6 (RM); 4.3.4 (Matrix) Page 2 The standards will be applicable to all future projects developed under the RM zoning standards, and to existing projects that are proposing to add new units. Smaller infill type projects may be exempted from some of the standards, but will be made to comply with those that are feasible to implement. The performance standards provide for a more objective means of determining the appropriate density for a project. It was suggested at the workshop that the density suffix be eliminated in lieu of the standards, however, the board did not give definitive direction regarding that proposal. Given the fact that there are already several projects in town that were developed under a density suffix, it is probably appropriate to maintain it as an option, but to discourage its application in the future. Another issue that has been previously discussed involves the minimum square footage requirements for dwelling units in the RM zoning district. In particular, there is some sentiment that the minimum square footage of 1,350 for a four (4) bedroom unit is not sufficient. At the June workshop, staff pointed out the following: Delray's minimums exceed those of Boca Raton and Boynton Beach; that projects recently approved in Delray Beach have exceeded the required minimums; and that none of the recent projects have included 4-bedroom units. There is also a concern that increasing the minimum square footages will likely cause some of the older multi-family developments in the City to become nonconforming. It is impossible to determine the degree to which that would occur without conducting an extensive study of condominium and rental projects throughout the City. If the Board feels strongly that the existing regulations are insufficient, it is suggested that the existing minimums be increased only for 3 and 4-bedroom units. The current minimums for efficiency, 1-bedroom, and 2-bedroom units are adequate to accommodate the 1 and 2 person households which typically occupy them. Efficiency 400 400 1 Bedroom 600 .600 2 Bedroom 900 900 3 Bedroom 1,150 1,250 4 Bedroom 1,350 1,500 Planning and Zoning Board Staff Report LDR Amendments - 4,4.6 (RM); 4.3.4 (Matrix) Page 3 1.

'William Schwartz, Chairman & Planning Board Members Planning & Zoning Board City Hali, i00 NW, i st Ave, Dekay Beach, Fi. 33445 Dear h/ir. Schwarzz, i am writing you as President of Progressive Residents of Deiray, to give you our suggestions for the proposed changes in the Medium Density Residential zoning district. We are very happy to see that recreation facilities for children of ali ages have now been included, it is very gratifying to see that the whole ordinance has been clarified as to the density allowed and the necessary steps that are required to increase it. We are however, concerned that the minimum size of the units has not been changed in any way. At the planning work shop the reason given was that we needed to allow for affordable housing, it has always been our contention that Dekay needs a balance in the various types of housing. Recently i received aa extensive report from the county planning staff on Transfer of Development Rights. Their Government information Services map showing the areas of the county in terms of balance of housing shows Deiray as having an some balance but with a higher incidence of iow and very iow owner occupied households. Our comprehensive plan dearly states that we are in need of more middle class owner occupied housing and that we need more family oriented housing to achieve a balance in our schools. In order to keep enough units that not only pay for themselves but also pay enough to make up for those that do not we must be sure that other than infili, we build more units that will increase our tax base. When we build apartments v,4th such ve,D' Iow minimum square footage for three and four bedroom units we are in fact building more apartments for empty nesters because they will not be satisfactory for families. Staff claims that it doesn't matter because "no one builds to those minimums". We cannot understand why if these numbers are so unrealistic why . .-~'. they should not be changed. Anything that is built to these dimensions will certainly not be " upscale. ~e~~ if we are to encourage rental units of any kind, we should try to insure that they . upscale, because as the older units become less attractive they will reduce the q, ~%'~ ,' need more upscaie housing in any new construction unless it is to replace clearly biighted units in the CRA area and even in that area also we should be encouraging a mix of housing. We urge you to consider increasing the minimum size of the three and four bedroom units. Sincereiy, ~_.~ ~ jean Beer, Pres.

These standards shall apply to all site plans approved subsequent to October 7, 1997, and for modifications to existing developments which involve the creation of additional residential units. In order to increase a project density beyond six (6) units per acre, the approving body must make a finding that the development substantially complies with the performance standards listed in this section. The intent of the standards is to mitigate the impacts of the additional density both internal and external to the site.

For example, if a project meets or exceeds all of the standards, and is otherwise consistent with applicable standards and policies of the City's Comprehensive Plan and Land Development Regulations, the maximum density is permitted. Projects which only partially achieve these standards will be permitted a correspondingly lower density. The performance standards are as follows: - 3 - Ord.

ATTEST: City Cgerk First Reading September 23, 1997 Second Reading October 7, 1997 - 6 - Ord. No. 42-97 MEMORANDUM TO: MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSIONERS FROM: ~ITYMANAGER SUBJECT: AGENDA ITEM #/~ - REGULAR MEETING OF OCTOBER 7, 1997 ORDINANCE NO. 43-97 (RECOMMENDATIONS CONCERNING THE REGULATION OF LARGE HOMES) DATE: OCTOBER 3, 1997 Attached is documentation from the Planning Department concerning proposed amendments to the Land Development Regulations which relate to the large home compatibility issue as discussed by the Large Home Task Team. It outlines the consideration and subsequent recommendation of the Planning and Zoning Board as well as a proposal from the Planning Department staff. I disagree with the Planning and Zoning Department staff on the proposal that the additional five foot (5') setback for homes over one story tall should only apply when the Floor Area Ratio exceeds 0.35. The detrimental impact which we are seeking to regulate is the impact of a two or three story structure five feet closer to the property line. The impact is caused by (1) the height of the structure and (2) the length of the structure adjacent to the property line. The length of the structure is not necessarily related to the Floor Area Ratio. Therefore, this proposal should not be adopted. I also have some concern about not increasing the setback for two and three story structures in R-IA and R-1A-B zones. Most of the lots in these zones are narrower, but you might want to consider increasing the side setback from 7-1/2 feet to 10 feet for those zones. Ordinance No. 43-97 is before the Commission for consideration on first reading in draft form. Please note that two Exhibits "A" and "B" are attached to the ordinance. One reflects the Large Home Task Team/Planning and Zoning Board recommendation while the other reflects the Planning Department staff proposal. City Commission consideration and direction is requested. re f: agmemo 11 ~ - 0 TO: DAVID T. HARDEN t~l'~ MANAGER THRU: TOR DEPARTMENT OF PLANI~ING AND ZONING FROM: PAUL DO~INCIPAL PLANNER SUBJECT: LDR AMENDMENTS TO SECTIONS 4.3.4(J)(1) HEIGHT, AND SECTION 4.3.4 (K) DEVELOPMENT MATRIX, AND "APPENDIX A" RELATING TO THE LARGE HOME TASK TEAM RECOMMENDATIONS The action before the Commission is approval of LDR changes relating to the large home compatibility issue as discussed by the Large Home Task Team. The proposed amendments include LDR Sections 4.3.4 (J)(1) Height, Section 4.3.4 (K) Development Standards Matrix and Appendix "A", Definitions. The Large Home Task Team concluded its deliberations on April 9, 1997. The team's recommendations included: the implementation of a maximum .40 FAR (Floor Area Ratio) for all single family zone districts; a maximum height of 35' to be measured to the highest part of the roof versus the mean (except for chimneys and cupolas); and that properties on the east side AIA be exempted from the regulations. These recommendations were presented to the City Commission on May 13, 1997 and the City Commission directed staff to prepare the attached LDR amendments. In the weeks preceding the Task Team's recommendation the City Commission received comments that the recommendation had not gone far enough in addressing the compatibility concerns. To that end staff formulated additional options for the Planning and Zoning Board and the City Commission to consider. The Task Team recommendations can be implemented by changing the definition of height in Section 4.3.4.(J)(1) as it applies to single family homes west of AIA, by adding a FAR (Floor Area Ratio) of .40 to the matdx contained in Section 4.3.4 under all single family zone districts, and by amending the definition section to provide a definition of Floor Area Ratio. An asterisk is to be placed next to the .40 referencing a notation that the FAR does not apply to single family homes east of AIA. The two additional options that staff presented to the Planning and Zoning Board included further clarification of the definition of FAR (i.e. double counting of floor area for rooms with ceilings over 15' in height), and provision of an increased setback for homes having two or more stories. The definition of Floor Area Ratio supported by the Task Team is "the ratio of the gross floor area of all structures on a lot to the lot area". However, this definition does not differentiate between floor areas which may have a ceiling height of 12' versus 24' or 30'. Clearly in the latter the impact of the height and mass of the room is equal to two or more floors yet would be counted as a single floor under this definition. Surrounding communities have addressed this concern by modifying the definition of floor area ratio to require areas with ceilings that are 15' or higher to be counted as double the square footage. To accommodate limited vaulted entries and atrium spaces an exemption of the first 200 square feet is recommended. Additional language to the definition section of the LDR's addressing the issue is attached. Another alternative regulation presented to the Planning and Zoning Board was to require an additional 5' setback for the second and third floors of multi-storied homes. This would promote the stepping back of the structures, mitigating the impacts on the adjoining properties by concentrating the mass of the house to the center of the lot. This recommendation requires modification of the Development Standards Matrix (Section 4.3.4) as it relates to side interior setbacks. There has been considerable discussion among Planning and Zoning Board members and within the community regarding the position of the Task Team to exclude the property along the oceanfront from the proposed regulations, since many of the largest homes in the City are located on these lots. However, the Task Team's basis for exclusion relates to the platted and unplatted characteristics of each neighborhood. When purchasing in platted subdivisions (Seagate, Tropic Isles etc.) residents have certain expectations of the character of the neighborhood. The unplatted oceanfront properties are bordered on one side by the ocean, and the other by a collector street (A1A), and are not in a true "neighborhood". Further, as the oceanfront contains predominantly larger homes this would appear to be a location where large home construction is compatible with adjacent properties. The Planning and Zoning Department considered the request at a public hearing on August 18, 1997 meeting. There was significant public testimony which ranged from support of the Task Team recommendations to testimony that the proposed regulations were too restrictive, or were not restrictive enough. After a lengthy discussion the Board recommended continuing the item and requested additional information with respect to the current regulations, the means by which other cities have addressed the issue, and the analysis of the proposed floor area ratios on existing and proposed development. The additional information was provided to the Board who again considered the LDR amendments at their September 15, 1997 meeting. After reviewing and discussing the supplementary information the Board recommended on a 4-2 vote (Carolyn Young and Robin Bird dissenting) the following LDR changes: · The implementation of a maximum .40 FAR (Floor Area Ratio) for all single family zone districts; · A maximum height of 35' to be measured to the highest part of the roof versus the mean (except for chimneys and cupolas); · The adoption of the Task Team's recommended definition of floor area; · That an additional 5' setback be required for second and third floors in the R- 1AAA, R1AAAB, R-1AAB and R-1AA single family zoning districts, and; · That the above new regulations not apply to properties on the east side of A1A. The Planning and Zoning Board recommendation differs from the staff recommendation as the Board chose not to recommend modifying the floor area ratio definition to require areas which are 15' or higher to be counted as double square footage. The recommendation differs from the Task Team's in that the Board chose to implement an additional 5' setback for the second and third floors of homes located in the R-1AAA, R-1AAAB, R-1AA and R-1AAB zone districts. The additional setback would not apply to properties zoned R-lA. In reviewing the Board's recommendation for additional setbacks a concern is noted. The additional setback as recommended would apply to all second and third floors regardless of the size of the house. This may unnecessarily penalize a home owner who may be contemplating a moderately sized home. To alleviate this concern it may be appropriate to require the additional setback only for those homes for which the mass is a compatibility concern i.e. homes which approach the maximum FAR. This could be accomplished by requiring the additional setback only on homes having an FAR between .35 and the .40 maximum. 1. Continue with direction. 2. Adopt the regulations as recommended by the Large Home Task Team which includes the establishment of a .40 FAR, modification of the definition of height (35' to the highest point of the roof), the addition of a definition for Floor Area Ratio (FAR) and gross floor area and the exempting of properties east of A1A from all of the above regulation changes. 3. Adopt the attached ordinance as recommended by the Planning and Zoning Board which includes the establishment of a .40 FAR, modification of the definition of height (35' to the highest point of the roof), the addition of a definition for Floor Area Ratio (FAR) and gross floor area, an additional 5' setback for the second and third floors of homes located in the R-1AAA, R- 1AAAB, R-1AA and R-1AAB zone districts, and the exempting of properties east of A1A from all of the above regulation changes. 4. Adopt an altemative combination of regulations which would include some or all of the recommendations of the Planning and Zoning Board along with the one or more of the following; · Apply the additional 5' setback in the R-1AAA, R-1AAAB, R-1AA and R- 1AAB zone districts for second and third floors only to homes having a .35 or greater FAR; · Adoption of the FAR definition to require areas which are 15' or higher to be counted as double square footage. By motion, adopt the Planning and Zoning Board recommendation for LDR amendments to Section 4.3.4 (J)(1) Height Section 4.3.4 (K) Development Standards matrix and "Appendix A" definitions to accommodate the following; · The establishment of a .40 FAR for all single family zone districts; · Modification of the definition of height to 35' to the highest point of the roof ( excluding chimneys and cupolas); · The addition of a definition for Floor Area Ratio (FAR) and gross floor area; · Adoption of an additional 5' setback for second and third floors in the R- 1AAA, R1AAAB, R-1AAB, and R-1AA and; · Exempting the properties east of A1A from all of the above regulation changes. And consideration of the following; · Apply the additional 5' setback in the R-1AAA, R-1AAAB, R-1AA and R- 1AAB zone districts for second and third floors only to homes having a .35 or greater FAR; · Adoption of the FAR definition to require areas which are 15' or higher to be counted as double square footage.
