Tolces, Assistant City Attor SUBJECT: Se~lement of Elizabeth & Milton Ha~ma~ v. Ci~ of Delray Beach This case arises out of a trip and fall on the City sidewalk adjacent to the Delray Harbor Club on the east side of Federal Highway just south of Knowles Park. Mrs. Hartmann tripped and fell while walking on the sidewalk. In the area where she fell, the sidewalk was cracked and uplifted. The crack and rise in the sidewalk could have been caused by tree roots growing underneath the sidewalk. In this case, the Plaintiff filed suit against the City and the Delray Harbor Club. Under Florida law, a municipality can be held liable for injuries caused by defects in sidewalks which are caused by "subterranean root growth." Mrs. Hartmann, 71 years old, suffered fractures of the little and ring fingers of her left hand, several abrasions on her legs and arm, and broke her glasses as a result of her fall. As of today, she continues to have difficulty using her left hand. Mr. Hartmann is claiming loss of care and consortium as a result of the injuries. The Plaintiffs have agreed to settle with the City for $10,500.00 inclusive of all attorney's fees and costs. Our office recommends settlement for that amount in exchange for dismissal of the case and execution of appropriate releases by the Plaintiffs. The City's Risk Manager, Frank Babin and Steve Hanzman, adjuster for Gallagher Bassett, concur in our recommendation. Please call if you have any questions. DNT:smk cc: David T.

Barcinski Assistant City Manager DATE: October 21, 1997 SUBJECT: AGENDA ITEM - CITY COMMISSION WORKSHOP - OCTOBER 28, 1997 PARKING MANAGEMENT TEAM Direction City Commission is requested to review the 1992 resolution that established the Parking Management Team and provide direction on the following: · Status of Task Team · Membership ,~ · Responsibilities and duties · Staff support Background The Parking Management Team was established by City Commission in 1992 by resolution to advise City Commission on the planning, development, construction, and operation of parking and to make recommendations on and implement provisions of the 1991 Master Parking Plan. The PMT was not set up as an official advisory board to City Commission. Membership consists of ten (10) members with representation narrowly defined. A copy of the PMT board membership is attached. Members were nominated by the CRA and appointed by City Commission. Staff support was loosely defined with initial support provided by the CRA with the understanding that a permanent program for the administrative aspects of the PMT would be provided at a later date. Staff assistance has been provided by the CRA with assistance from our Planning and Police Departments. The PMT does not meet on a regular basis, nor are the terms of appointees established. I have met and discussed issues concerning the PMT with Janet Onnen, Chris Brown, and Diane Dominguez. We all felt that it was time to review provisions of the establishing resolution with City Commission and seek direction on various items. The Parking Management Team reviewed staff recommendations and voted to present these to City Commission for consideration. They indicated that these changes would be beneficial until such time that a parking authority may be established. Direction Issues/Recommendations Should the PMT continue as a task team or be reestablished as a formal advisory board to City Commission with terms and limits like other boards i.e. maximum two (2) two year terms with monthly meetings. Should the PMT consist of ten (10) members with narrowly defined representation? · We recommend a seven (7) member board with representation as follows. (1) One member CRA (2) One member DDA (3) One member Planning and Zoning Board (4) One member from the OSSHAD District (5) One business owner - west of Swinton Avenue (6) One business owner - between Swinton and Intracoastal (7) One business owner - east of Intracoastal The CRA, DDA and P & Z Boards should recommend appointees; other membership should be selected the City Commission from a list of applicants. Terms would be staggered. · What should be the responsibilities of this board? We recommend that responsibilities continue as outlined in the original resolution. · Should the area within which the PMT operates be defined? We feel this area should be defined and would recommend boundaries if City Commission should direct this option. CRA is proposing boundaries that would include all of the CRA district, plus the area along A-1-A from N.E. 8th Street to Casurina. We recommend that proposed boundaries should coincide with those of the Transportation Concurrency Exception Area (TCEA--map attached), as well as the area along A-1-A within the CBD. This would include the entire CBD, as well as the West Atlantic Redevelopment Area and the beach business which are the locations that are generating most of the parking issues. areas, · Who should provide staff support for the PMT? We feel City staff as assigned by the City Manager should provide the administrative staff support with assistance provided by CRA staff. City staff support should also be provided to implem~ent____recommendations approved by City Commission.

If you have any questions pleas ~eel free to contact Ron Hoggard or myself at 276-8640. Very Truly Yours. Christopher J. Brown Executive Director PART THREE: MASTER PARKING PROGRAM This Master Parking Program refers to the previous options analysis and offers improvements and policy recommendations based on PSC consensus and conclusions from other reports to meet existing and future parking needs. I. PARKING MANAGEMENT TEAM There are numerous parking options and regulation modifications, as well as a lack of singular focus in parking in Delray Beach. Therefore, the PSC recommends that the City Commission create a Parking Management Team (PMT) to provide leadership on parking decisions in the City. The PMT should be charged with the planning, development, construction and operation of parking in the Study Area. The PMT is in many respects a formal version of the existing PSC. It should be comprised of 9 members: a representative from the CRA, the DDA, the City Commission, the Chamber of Commerce (Atlantic 'Avenue Association), the Planning & Zoning Board; and a member-at-large representing from the Downtown, Beach, West Atlantic and Expanded CBD Areas. The members should be appointed by the City Commission and serve a term limit of approximately 2 years. This quasi - public/private advisory board could become an independent Parking Authority in the future. The CRA could be under contract as the lead agency in providing staff support and agenda setting to the PMT. It is the best choice of existing agencies because it is somewhat removed from city politics; it covers the entire Study Area; and it already takes a lead role in redevelopment projects, which warrant most new parking facilities. The CRA staff would also coordinate with City staff on parking issues. See Exhibit 9. Page33 MEMORANDUM TO: David T. Harden City Manager FROM: ¢I'~ Robert A. Barcinski Assistant City Manager DATE: October 23, 1997 SUBJECT: AGENDA ITEM CITY COMMISSION WORKSHOP MEETING OCTOBER 28. 1997 PARKING MANAGEMENT TEAM - CONSULTANT RECOMMENDATION General The Parking Management Team has requested a workshop with City Commission to discuss and receive direction on short term recommendations presented to them by their parking consultant. These recommendations include: 1. Hiring a full time parking manager 2. Establishing a centralized valet parking system 3. Authorize on a temporary basis parking on unproved lots 4. Changing the 2m parking limits on Atlantic Avenue to 1 hour 5. Providing additional and stricter parking enforcement At their this last meeting on October 9, 1997 the PMT board voted to pass there recommendations on to City Commission. Our staff has reviewed these proposals and is providing comments as follows for Commission consideration. Staff Comments Hiring Full-time Parking Manager Based on the limited information provided to date concerning the job functions for this position, staff feels that the immediate responsibilities listed for this position could possibly be handled in house through assignment to a City staff member by the City Manager. Assignment and reporting requirements should be left to the City Manager. We do not feel that this person should be assigned enforcement responsibility. We also feel that if a full time person should be hired, the employee should be an employee of the City. Centralized Valet Parking Staff has no problems with this item. We do think that the following items need to be addressed in the RFP process. · Lot use/public-private · Queuing stations · Liability · Payment for lot use Page 2 Date: October 23, 1997 It is my understanding that Mr. Brown is working on this item. It will take sometime to develop the RFP, obtain proposals and make an award. Temporary Parking Lots Staff can support the use of temporary unimproved parking lots, provided that the approval is made on an annual basis, that certain design and landscape requirements are included, that the area these lots are allowed in is narrowly defined and that we can allow these lots without creating problems in other parts of the City. If Commission wished to proceed in this manner our LDR's and code will need to be changed and proceed through the regular review and approval process. Included are copies of standards used for temporary and provisional lots used in Miami Beach. One Hour Parking Limits on Atlantic Avenue Staff has no objections, however, I think we need to look at what it might take from an enforcement requirement. The change from 2 hours to 1 hour limits would require a code amendment. Additional and Stricter Enforcement We do not feel that enforcement has been lax. This function is handled by volunteers who are not paid to perform these tasks or go to court when subpoenaed. Efforts have been made to beef up enforcement. RAB/tas cc: Janet Onnen Chris Brown Bill Wood File:u:sweeney/agenda Doc:pmt.doc Community Redevelopment OCI Agency CITY Delray Beach October 1, 1997 Mr. David Harden City Manager City of Delray Beach 100 NW 1 st Avenue Delray Beach, FL 33444 RE: Parking Management Team/City Commission Workshop Dear Dave: The purpose of this letter is to request that City Commission's workshop with regard to the role of the Parking Management Team be postponed fi.om the agenda of october 14, 1997. The CRA staff as well as Janet Onnen, Marjofie Fen'er, and others will be attending the annual Florida Redevelopment Associafion/M~ Street conference at that time. Commissioner Egan will also be out of town. We would like to request a special workshop to take place on Tuesday, October 28, 1997. 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. for your assistance. Executive Director cc: Robert Barcinski 24 N. Swinton Avenue, Delray Beach, FL 33444 (561) 276-8640 / Fax (561) 276-8558 Regular Meeting Parking Management Team October 9, 1997 Workshop Recommendations 1. Full-Time Parking Manager. The PMT recommends that the City Commission reconstitute the PMT as a fully empowered City board and provide a full-time parking manager under the supervision of one of the City departments, reporting directly to Robert Barcinski, Assistant City Manager. The duties and responsibilities of the parking manager are to carry outAhe ~recogunendations of the PMT Board, the City Commission and the City Manager. The man~e'-~'~'ag'~"e'/irwould carry out specifically the immediate action recommendations outlined below, namely, valet parking, establishing a tempor~aDcparki~dinance~,~ review of the hours of public parking, and, most importantly(b~e in charge of en~e~ .~ Valet Parking. The PMT recommends that the City Commission authorize the Assistant City Manager to issue a centralized valet parking contract "Request for Proposal" as soon as practicable. The City Planning Department and the CRA will assist the Assistant City Manager in preparing the RFP for approval by the City Commission. The PMT would provide prior approval as well as other downtown boards. The valet stations would be located on East Atlantic Avenue and both public and private lots would be secured for the required parking. 3. Temporary Parking Lots. The PMT recommends that the City Commission authorize the City Planning Department to write a revision to the Land Development Regulations allowing the use of vacant lots for parking on a temporary basis. The CBD zoning district would be the only area in which the temporary lots could be placed. The regulation would contain language that would provide for a one year use, renewable annually by the City Commission with recommended approval by the PMT and other CBD boards. There would be a minimum improvement standard. The use of temporary parking lots would be phased out as the City and CRA phase in more public spaces and the private sector provides additional spaces. The PMT would oversee the phasing out. 4. Changing 2-Hour Parking on Atlantic Avenue to 1 Hour. Parking consultant, John Edwards, made a convincing case for changing the time limit. Briefly, he stated that the on- street parking needs to be reserved for maximum turn-over. For those parkers who wish to stay longer in the downtown, they should park in the City and CRA lots behind buildings or on side streets. Enforcement will become an even more important issue with 1 hour limits on the avenue. 5. Stricter Enforcement of Parking Violations. This issue is key to parking management. Currently the volunteer force is doing a moderately good job, but as John Edwards pointed out, writing ten tickets a day is nothing to brag about. Summer enforcement is lax. A parking manager could be very important in enforcement. The enforcers, the volunteer force, must report to the manager. · ' PUBLIC ~I3RKS DEPT. Fax :305-673-702~ .Sep 10 '97 11:38 P.

COMMISSION DIRECTION Viable Project - Pursue Implementation NO YES No Further Action Reuse Ordinance Finance Alternatives Land Acquisition MEETING OF: OCTOBER 28, '1997 AGENDA ITEM: PROPOSED AMENDMENTS TO LAND DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS, ELIMINATING A MAXIMUM DENSITY RESTRICTION ON RESIDENTIAL DWELLING UNITS WITHIN CERTAIN SECTIONS OF THE CENTRAL BUSINESS DISTRICT (CBD) The purpose of scheduling this item on the workshop agenda is to allow for a preliminary discussion of a proposed LDR amendment dealing with residential densities in the CBD. The amendment is scheduled to be considered on first reading at the regular meeting of November 4, 1997; however, due to its significance it was felt that a workshop discussion would also be appropriate. As a result of the revitalization efforts that have been made in the downtown, the CBD has become a vibrant shopping and entertainment district, with restaurants and clubs, art and antique dealers, and quality retailers. One essential component to a sustainable downtown which continues to be deficient, however, is the construction of residential dwelling units. Residential development must be attracted to the downtown to ensure its long term viability. This factor has long been recognized by the CRA, the City Commission, and members of the community who have worked to revitalize the area. However, the development community has been slow to respond to the opportunities to create residential units in the CBD, for a number of reasons. Providing new housing in the downtown is especially difficult due to the problems and the costs involved in assembling sufficient land. It has also become apparent that these problems are exacerbated by the existing limitations on density, as described below. Current Reoulations Residential dwelling units are permitted in the downtown area at a density of 30 units per acre, excluding the area east of N.E. 7th Avenue (which was previously identified as the Coastal High Hazard Area--this has since been changed to the Intracoastal Waterway) where it is limited to 12 units per acre. City Commission Workshop Meeting of 10/28/97 Proposed Amendments to the LDRs Regarding Densities in the CBD Page 2 There has been recent interest shown by developers in establishing quality residential development in the downtown, however, the density limitations have been identified as an impediment. The case of the renovation of the Huber Drugs building on East Atlantic Avenue is a good example. The owner applied to convert the second floor of the building to eleven (11) dwelling units, but was restricted by the density limits to four (4). The remainder of the space must continue to be used as office, even though he has had a great deal of interest from residential tenants. This is contrary to all of the efforts that have been made to date to encourage residents living downtown. Similarly, developers have approached the CRA about constructing new residential buildings, but have found that the density limits don't allow for enough units to make the projects viable. In most cases the projects will be limited to small sites, (perhaps as small as an acre or two) due to the limited available land, and it does not make economic sense to incur the costs of developing projects having 30 or so units. At the City Commission meeting of September 23, 1997, Mayor Alperin noted his concerns regarding these difficulties, and asked staff to determine if the regulations could be addressed in order to facilitate the creation of dwelling units in the downtown area. At the Planning and Zoning Board worksession of October 13, 1997, staff proposed the idea of eliminating density restrictions altogether in the CBD, for the following reasons: · The dwelling unit per acre approach is more of a suburban concept, where it is applied to vacant land on a gross acreage basis, and land for roads and open space is then extracted from the total. Cities with urban centers typically do not use the unit per acre concept for their downtowns, where public roads, infrastructure, and open space areas already exist. · The maximum density that is achievable in the CBD is already limited by height (no more than 60 feet), setbacks, minimum unit sizes (which were recently increased), parking requirements, and where applicable, open space requirements. These provisions have the effect of limiting the mass and scale of buildings in the downtown. If we are willing to live with these limitations for nonresidential structures, they should be sufficient parameters for residential buildings, regardless of the number of dwelling units that they contain. · Due to the unique character of the Central Business District, the separate impacts of residential, commercial, and office development are less relevant than the overall impacts of the development mix. Controls should, then, be focused on the gross intensity of development in the district rather than the net density of a particular use within the development mix. Within the Central Business District the density of residential development on a particular site is less relevant than the establishment and maintenance of a sustainable mix of uses which provide for a balance of dwelling units, services, and employment opportunities in a compact area. City Commission Workshop Meeting of 10/28/97 Proposed Amendments to the LDRs Regarding Densities in the CBD Page 3 The P & Z Board members expressed support for the concept of removing maximum residential density requirements, but only for the core of the CBD--that is, the first two blocks north and south of Atlantic Avenue (west of the Intracoastal). They also felt that there should be some basic limits on the mix of unit types. In particular, they felt that the percentage of efficiency and studio type units should be restricted. The proposed amendment would affect the number of dwelling units per acre, as well as unit types. Within the Central Business District, between Swinton Avenue and the Intracoastal Waterway, and between NE 2nd Street and SE 2nd Street, the limitation on residential density would be eliminated. The portion of the Central Business District located east of the Intracoastal Waterway (as opposed to east of N.E. 7th Avenue) is excluded from this proposal, in that it lies in the Coastal High Hazard Area. Within this area, state regulations prohibit reductions in hurricane evacuation times, which is most affected by the number of residents. The residential density of this portion of the district will remain at twelve (12) units per acre. Those portions of the Central Business District north of NE 2nd Street and south of SE 2nd Street would maintain the 30 unit per acre limitation. In these areas, the CBD narrows significantly, forming a corridor centered on Federal Highway, between mostly residential established neighborhoods. The corridors are relatively remote from Atlantic Avenue, and at the fringe of the "compact urban core" of the traditional downtown. Due to these Iocational considerations, residential density controls should be retained to assure compatibility with surrounding land uses. The quality of residential development is also vital to the long-term success of downtown redevelopment. One measure of quality is a reasonable mix of unit sizes and their respective rents or values. Residential development in the downtown should attract a stable, year-round population that will contribute substantially to the economy of the downtown and the City. Therefore, it is appropriate to limit the proportion of efficiency apartments in favor of larger units. A limitation of 25% for efficiency units should produce such a reasonable mix of units sizes. However, this limitation is only applied to larger projects, in order to allow additional flexibility for second floor conversions and smaller redevelopment projects. The Planning and Zoning Board took action on the proposed amendments at the regular meeting of October 20, 1997. Some minor changes were suggested regarding the proportion of efficiency units. With those changes, the Board recommended unanimously that the amendments be adopted. · Attachment: Proposed LDRAmendment PROPOSED LDR AMENDMENT Section 4.4.13 Central Business (CBD) District (H) Special Regulations: (1) The sale of second hand material, other than verifiable antiques, shall not be allowed within businesses which have an entry from and/or windows along East Atlantic Avenue.
