THRU: Lula Butler, Director Community Improvement~
DATE: October 21, 1992
SUBJECT: Request for Commission Approval to Provide Emergency
Repair Services Outside the CDBG Target Area
ITEM BEFORE THE COMMISSION
Request the waiver of CDBG Policies and Procedures which limit
the provision of housing assistance to structures within the CDBG
Target Area.
BACKGROUND
The CDBG Program Statement of Policies and Procedures at
paragraph C2 states that "only those properties located within
the boundaries of the CDBG designated target area are eligible
for housing assistance." (The target area is that area bounded
on the North by Lake Ida Road, on the South by Linton Blvd., on
the West by 1-95 and the East by Federal Highway).
The owner of property located at 225 NE 16th Street has requested
emergency assistance to rewire the electrical system in her home
as it is in a dangerous condition. In her application for
assistance the homeowner states that she cannot afford this
expense and has no other means of doing so. If we are permitted
to assist this applicant, we will determine through our
eligibility process if she meets the income criteria for
participation.
The Emergency Repair program will provide assistance of up to
$3000 to address dangerous or unsafe substandard housing
conditions. This applicants request is appropriate for this
program.
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the CDBG policy governing the Target Area
be waived to allow the provision of Emergency Repair services
outside of the area.

TO: The City Commission
FROM: David T. Harden tJ;!i,
City Manager
DATE: October 20, 1992
SUBJECT: ADMINISTRATIVE POLICY - EMPLOYEE DEVELOPMENT AND TRAINING
I submit to you for your consideration an Administrative Policy that
promotes education and skill development for our employees which will
favorably impact productivity and the level of our services to the
public.
This Policy addresses our In-Service Training Program and our position
relative to outside seminars and workshops. In addition, this Policy
establishes an Education Assistance Program which will provide tuition
reimbursement for eligible employees. This Program will support the
employees efforts to further their education as applied to their current
job as well as prepare them for future promotional opportunities.
Policies on tuition reimbursement for our Police and Fire Departments
were negotiated by the Police and Fire unions prior to my becoming City
Manager. This new Administrative Policy allows similar benefits to be
provided for our other employees.
The Educational Assistance Program has been formulated with eligibility
criteria and conditions to allow proper control and is subject to the
availability of funds.

The City has established an In-Service Training Program which serves to
identify, develop and provide relevant training programs on a regular

the employee's REGULAR WORKING HOURS. While employees are encouraged to
take advantage of these offerings, attendance is VOLUNTARY. These
In-Service Programs are offered during regular working hours, permission
for attendance needs to be secured from the employee's Supervisor and/or
Department Head.
B) Outside Seminars/Workshops
While every effort is made to provide a variety of relevant In-Service
Training to meet the needs of the City's employees, at times, due to
specific job related requirements or specific content of the training,
outside programs need to be attended. Attendance to such programs mayor
may not be during the regular working hours and would be dependent upon
justification of need and budgetary considerations. Department Head
approval needs to be secured prior to registration or attendance.
C) Education Assistance Program
The City of Delray Beach encourages full-time eligible employees to
continue developing and improving their skills for their current job and
to prepare for promotional opportunities. The Education Assistance
Program is established and designed to fill the City's need for a
balanced program providing assistance to employees who are pursuing
graduate, undergraduate or associate degrees at college level, GED's or
diplomas, or certificates of completion. To qualify for this program the
course work must be provided by an ACCREDITED educational facility and

POLICY FOR HANDLING TRAFFIC RELATED AFFECTING
NEIGHBORHOODS
ACTION REQUESTED OF THE COMMISSION:
The action requested of the City Commission is that of
acceptance of a policy which provides direction on how to
handle certain traffic related matters which impact
neighborhoods.
BACKGROUND:
This item was before the City Commission previously at which
time it was remanded to staff for some clarification.
While there was support for the policy, a concern was raised
that it would lead to unnecessary bureaucracy i.e. having every
traffic related item referred to DSMG and the Planning and
Zoning Board. While oral explanations were provided, the
Commission directed that there be written changes to the policy.
STEP 2 of the policy has been altered to specifically list the
types of items which are subject to it. These include: Street
closures, or partial closures; and the changing of traffic flow
direction (i.e. change from two-way to one-way, etc. ) .
PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD CONSIDERATION:
The Planning and Zoning Board formally reviewed this item at its
meeting of May 11, 1992, and forwarded it with a recommendation
of approval.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
By motion, accept the proposed policy and direct its
implementation by the Administration

PLANNING AND ZONING DEPARTMENT MEMORANDUM
TO: DAVID J. KOVACS, DIRECTOR
OF PLANNING AND ZONING DEPARTMENT
FROM: GREG LUTTRELL
TRAFFIC ENGINEER
RE: RESIDENTIAL/NEIGHBORHOOD TRAFFIC CONTROL
RECOMMENDED POLICY DRAFT
DATE: APRIL 22, 1992
As the Traffic Engineering function in the City becomes more
established, we are receiving an increasing number of residential/
neighborhood traffic control requests. Many of these requests deal
with purely technical (missing signs) or enforcement issues. These
requests are being addressed through existing processes. We are
however, seeing many of the traditional neighborhood traffic issues
being raised that can't be fully addressed using existing processes.
Neighborhood traffic controls not only must meet technical
requirements, but need to address social, environmental, and safety
issues. The technical items are relatively straight forward. The
other issues should be dealt with through both the City
Administration (DSMG, City Manager, City Commission) and the
Neighborhood (Citizen Advisory Board, Homeowners Association). It
was recommended at the DSMG meeting that the Planning and Zoning
Board act as the Citizen Advisory Board (CAB). The solutions or
actions involved to address neighborhood traffic issues are
numerous, must be part of an comprehensive approach, and can be
controversial.
Attached is a draft policy providing a structure for addressing
non-technical neighborhood traffic issues. This draft outlines a
series of steps required to address these issues. It provides for
input from the residents, administration and final approval by the
Commission. It also recommends evaluation steps, a two stage
implementation (temporary, permanent) process, and continuing public
approvals during the whole process.
The Neighborhood Task Team report identified traffic control issues
in almost all neighborhoods. Additionally, we have recently
received two complaints of speeding through two separate
neighborhoods, and are addressing the Palm Square closure question.
I would like to use the process outlined in the attached draft
policy in addressing neighborhood traffic issues.
Please review and comment on the attached draft policy,which has
been revised following the discussion at DSMG. Please provide
direction on what actions will be necessary to have it officially
adopted.

SUBJECT: AGENDA ITEM ~ gl: - MEETING OF OCTOBER 27. 1992
SUNSHINE AND CONTINENTAL CUP TENNIS TOURNAMENT
DATE: OCTOBER 23, 1992
We have, received a request from the Chairman of the Sunshine and
Continental Cup Tennis Tournament for authorization to erect flags,
welcome and directional signs in the City's rights-of way at Linton
Boulevard, Lindell Boulevard and Dotterel Road in conjunction with the
tennis tournament being held December 13 through 20, 1992.
The Chairman proposes to erect the signs no later than November 16th.
Section 4.6.7 (D) (3) (j) (ii) of the LDRs provides that event signs may
be placed one week prior to an event. Staff recommends that this
provision be waived and that a compromise date of November 30th be
approved.
There is also a request for police coverage during the event. Last
year police overtime assistance was prov ided a t no charge. Over 150
man-hours was expended for this event at a cost of over $2,200. Given
budget constraints, staff feels that it is appropriate to charge a fee
for these services this year.
Additionally, the Chairman has requested that the City release the
$10,000 in funding budgeted for this event.
Recommend waiver of LDR Section 4.6.7 (D){3){j){ii) to permit flags,
welcome and directional signs to be erected on November 30, 1992 and
authorize the release of the $10,000 in funding budgeted for this
event.

SUNSHINE CUP/CONTINENTAL CUP TENNIS TOURNAMENT
DATE: October 21, 1992
ACTION
City Commission is requested to approve the request from the
Sunshine Cup/Continental Cup Tournament Chairman for City
assistance and to approve the release of funds as budgeted.
BACKGROUND
We have received a request from Mr. Claudio Colucci to provide
City assistance for the Sunshine Cup/Continental Cup Tennis
Tournament to be held December 13th through the 20th at the
Delray Racquet Club. In addition, Mr. Colucci is requesting
release of the $10,000 budgeted for this event. Assistance is
requested for installing international flags, welcome signs and
directional signs, and in providing additional police coverage.
Police overtime assistance was provided last year at no charge.
Over 150 man-hours of overtime was expended for this event at a
cost of over $2,200. Due to budget constraints, staff does not
feel that this event can be absorbed through the departmental
budget.
RECOMMENDATION
Recommend approval of the request, changing the date for the
installation of the flags to November 30th and the welcome and
directional signs to December 4th, waiving the LDR's section
4.6.7 (D)(3)(j)(ii) one week requirement for the installation of
signs, charge the event for Police overtime costs, and authorize
release of $10,000 budgeted for this event.

THRU: Richard G. Overman, Chief of Police
DATE: October 21, 1992
SUBJECT: SUNSHINE CUP TENNIS TOURNAMENT
Per your request, I have researched the amount of police manpower
committed to last year's Sunshine Cup Tennis Tournament. In
reviewing our staffing assignment (attached) , it would seem that
a total of 150 police man-hours were spent during this one week
event. This represents a combination of on duty, assigned
officers and officers on overtime. A total of 81 overtime
man-hours were committed to this project representing $2,268.00
($28.00 per hour, top out police officer's overtime rate) in
order to accomplish staffing needs.
This is a significant commitment of both on duty man-hours as
well as overtime dollars; and given budget considerations, I
would strongly urge that funding for the anticipated overtime be
collected.

SUBJECT: AGENDA ITEM ~ g;: - MEETING OF OCTOBER 27. 1992
FINAL PLAT APPROVAL/TRACT R DELRAY PARK OF COMMERCE
DATE: OCTOBER 23, 1992
This item is before you to approve the final plat for Tract R Delray
Park of Commerce located at the northeast corner of Congress Avenue
and Lake Ida Road.
At the April 23, 1991 regular meeting the Commission approved a
modification to the Master Development Plan for the Delray Park of
Commerce. The modification involved a change in the land use for
Tract R from office to retail and industrial. As a condition of that
approval replatting was required. That replat action was to provide
cross access and to preserve a group of slash pines located within the
Tract.
The plat before the Commission is a minor subdivision plat which
subdivides Tract R into two parcels. All other conditions of approval
have been complied with except the preserve area note and the plat is
ready for Commission.
The Planning and Zoning Board at their September 21st meeting
recommended approval of the final plat subject to conditions. A
detailed staff report is attached as backup material for this item.
Recommend approval of the final plat for Tract R Delray Park of
Commerce subject to the conditions as recommended by the Planning and
Zoning Board.

FROM:
SUBJECT: MEETING OF OCTOBER 27, 1992
FINAL PLAT FOR DELRAY PARK OF COMMERCE TRACT "R"
**REGULAR AGENDA**
ACTION REQUESTED OF THE COMMISSION:
The action requested of the City Commission is that of
approval of the final plat for Tract "R" within the Delray
Park of Commerce.
The project is located at the northeast corner of Congress
Avenue and Lake Ida Road.
BACKGROUND:
On April 23, 1991 the City Commission approved a modification
to the Master Development Plan for the Delray Park of Commerce.
The modification involved a change in the land uses for Tract
"R", from office to retail and industrial. As a condition of
that approval the subsequent rep1at was to deal with the issues
of cross access and the preservation of a group of slash pines
located within the tract.
The plat petition was received in January, 1992, with action
scheduled to take place at the March 16, 1992 Planning and
Zoning Board meeting. However, just prior to the meeting date
the applicant requested to substantially change required
information concerning the preserve area note. Once the
applicant was informed of staff's recommendation not to change
the preserve area note, a request was received from the
applicant to postpone the meeting date in order to resolve the
preserve area issue.
On September 11, 1992 a project representative met with staff.
As a result of that meeting, the applicant stated his intent to
comply with staff's recommendations and his intent to change the
orientation of the plat from a 3 lot replat to a 2 lot replat.
By changing the orientation of the plat the applicant feels that
the preserve area will no longer create the same hardship due to
the increased area of the lot. For more detailed analysis see
the attached Planning and zoning Board staff report.

Page 2
PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD CONSIDERATION:
Prior to the action taken by the Planning and Zoning Board at
its September 21, 1992 meeting, the applicant submitted a
request to alter the language within the preserve area note.
The Planning and Zoning Board did not accept the requested
change and recommended approval subject to the following
conditions:
1. That the preserve area be delineated on the plat and that
the preserve area note read as follows, "The preserve
area shown on Lot R2 delineates a stand of existing slash
pines. Pursuant to initial approval of the Delray Park
of Commerce Master Plan, the developers of Tract "R" are
to be sensitive to this existing stand of Slash Pines,
and that every effort be made to preserve and protect
this important stand of trees to the maximum extent
possible."
2. That the cross access easement shall be for Lots Rl and
R2 and that the dedication statement for the cross access
easement read as follows, "The cross access easement as
shown hereon, is hereby dedicated as an access easement
for the benefit of Rl over and through R2 in order to
access Park of Commerce Boulevard, and that the right of
construction, maintenance, and access is reserved to the
developing tract."
3. That R2 and R3 be combined to form a new R2.
4. That documents supporting the ownership of R2 and the
delegation of authority for the Resort at Indian Springs,
Inc. be provided.
ANALYSIS
The applicant has requested to change the phrase "and that every
effort be made to preserve and protect this important stand of
trees to the maximum extent possible" to "and that efforts be
made to preserve and protect this important stand of trees."
It is staff's opinion that the change in language that has been
requested is not a substantial change and would not change the
intent of the condition.
All other conditions of approval have been complied with except
the preserve area note and the plat is ready for Commission
approval.

While the Board may take action on this replat petition, the
following technical items must be complied with before this
petition can be scheduled for city Commission action: 1) As a
condition of approval for the Master Development Plan Change
(4-23-91) the delineation of the preserve area and the
explanation regarding its preservation are required as they
pertain to Lot R2. Compliance Nith this condition of approve I
is not provided. 2) The cross-access provisions for Lots R2
and Lot R1 is not provided.
Also, with the revised submittal 'of August 28, 1992 the
ownership for Lot R2 has changed. Therefore, a copy of the last
recorded warranty deed for Lot R2, authorization from the new
owner, and a clarification of the delegation of agency are
required.
ASS E S MEN T :
Although on the surface it seems that this plat only
subdivides interest of Tract "R", there are previously
identified issues that need to be dealt with. The revised
submittal of August 28, 1992 does not adequately address
the issues of the slash pine preservation or the cross
access between R1 and R2. Before any approval can be given
these issues must be accomplished.
A L T ERN A T I V E C 0 U R S E S o F ACT ION :
A. Continue with direction.
B. Approve the preliminary plat and certify the final plat as
being consistent with the preliminary plat.
C. Deny the request with basis stated.

SUBJECT: AGENDA ITEM it 5511 - MEETING OF OCTOBER 27. 1992
EMERGENCY REPAIR/AWARD OF BID
DATE: OCTOBER 23, 1992
This item is before you to approve the emergency repair of a sanitary
sewer line, manhole and service laterals on White Cedar Lane in the
Del-Aire Subdivision. These repairs were necessary due to leaks in
the sewer line which caused the undermining of the pavement and the
erosion of the manhole base on White Cedar Lane.
We have received quotes from our emergency contractors. While Jackson
and Davis, Inc. was the low bidder, their quote did not include the
replacement of 80 feet of sanitary line. Therefore staff recommends
award of bid to Ocean Bay Company in the amount of $36,250.
Recommend approval of the emergency repair of the sanitary sewer line,
manhole and service laterals on White Cedar Lane and approval of the
award of bid to Ocean Bay Company in the amount of $36,250 with
funding from Renewal and Replacement Sewer System/Mains and Lines
(Account No. 442-5178-536-63.51).

that two officers assaulted him and effectuated his arrest unlawfully
while he was working as a bouncer at Cymbals. At the time of the
incident the two officers were off duty and in the bar as private
citizens. However, the Plaintiff alleges that the officers were
acting within the scope of their employment and therefore has brought
an action against the City.
As the City's interests and officer's interests may be at odds, staff
recommends that the City retain outside counsel to defend the
officers. Mr. Gelston's fee is $100 per hour. A detailed staff
report is attached as backup material.

From: Jeffrey S. Kurtz, City Attorney ~
I
Subject: Michael Grabow v. City of Delray Beach; Retention
of Outside Counsel; Our File #05-92.023
This case involves alleged false imprisonment, assault and
battery that took place on or about September 16, 1990. The
Plaintiff alleges that two officers, Edward J. Robinson and
Johnny Ortiz, assaulted him and effectuated his arrest unlaw-
fully while he was working as a bouncer at Cymbals. Mr. Grabow
claims that he suffered injuries to his shoulder as a result of
the altercation.
The facts appear to be contrary to Mr. Grabow's complaint in
that Officers Robinson and Ortiz were merely socializing in the
bar when Mr. Grabow ordered them to stop talking to a female
patron and began an unprovoked assault upon Mr. Robinson. At
the time of this incident, Officers Robinson and Ortiz were off
duty and in the bar as private citizens. In fact, the parent
company of Cymbals Nightclub has paid a settlement to Officers
Robinson and Ortiz for the assault that was brought upon them
by Mr. Grabow.
Nonetheless, the Plaintiffs have alleged that Officers Robinson
and Ortiz were acting within the scope of their employment and
therefore have brought an action against the City. In a second
count the Plaintiff has alleged that Officer Robinson's and
Ortiz's actions were committed in bad faith or with malicious
purpose or were committed in a manner that exhibited wanton or
willful disregard for human rights or safety. It is because of
this count in the Amended Complaint that the City's interests
and the officer's interests individually may be at odds, and it
is necessary to retain outside counsel to defend the officers
individually. Our office will continue to defend the City.
It is my recommendation that the City retain Fred Gelston to
defend Officers Robinson and Ortiz in this matter at a cost of
$100.00 per hour. While the City would defend the officers, it

DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING AND ZONING
SUBJECT: MEETING OF OCTOBER 27, 1992
REQUEST TO THE BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS TO
ACHIEVE CONSISTENCY BETWEEN CITY AND COUNTY LAND USE
MAPS AND FOR A TRANSFER OF POWER
ACTION REQUESTED OF THE COMMISSION:
The action requested of the City Commission is that of
requestinq the Board of County Commissioners to direct its
staff to include, in the next County Plan Amendment,
Future Land Use Map (FLUM) changes which will result in
consistency between the City and County FLUMsi and also to
proceed for a transfer of power with respect to certain
land use authorities.
BACKGROUND:
Both city and County Comprehensive Plans call for actions which
will result in the consistency between land use designations as
shown on the City and County Future Land Use Maps with respect
to the City's designated planning area. Also, both Plans call
for the pursuit and adoption of interlocal agreements which, to
some degree, transfer some powers from the County to the City.
The Planning Department, Advanced Planning Division, has
completed the background work so that this item can be brought
forward and be implemented. Pursuit at this time is
appropriate, in that the County is preparing for its next round
of Plan Amendments.
The attached Planning and Zoning Board staff report provides
full background, analysis, alternatives, and recommendations on
this topic.
PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD CONSIDERATION:
The Planning and Zoning Board formally reviewed this item at its
meeting of October 19, 1992, and has forwarded it with a
recommendation that it be forwarded to the Board of County
Commissioners. The P&Z Board reviewed this subject in two
work sessions prior to making its recommendation.

RECOMMENDED ACTION:
By motion, request that the Board of County Commissioners direct
its Planning Department to include in its Amendment 93-2
provisions which, at a minimum, reduce the potential for
inappropriate commercial use in the City of Delray Beach

17, 18, 23, 24, and 27 as described in the Planning and Zoning
Board staff report and also to consider an amendment which will
provide that the City's Future Land Use Map takes precedent
within the City's Planning Area; and further, that there
subsequently be an interlocal agreement which transfers land use
permitting and enforcement authority to the City for all
development within its' Planning Area.

PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD MEMORANDUM STAFF REPORT
MEETING OF: OCTOBER 19, 1992
AGENDA ITEM: V.B. Consideration of a Program to Achieve
Consistency Between the City and County
Future Land Use Maps in the City's Planning
Area /
I T E M B E FOR E THE BOA R D:
The item before the Board is consideration of a
proposal which will result in gaining consistency
between the respective Future Land Use Maps (FLUM) of
the County and the City; and which will result, to some
degree, in a transfer of land use authority from the
County to the City.
The action to be taken is to recommend to the City
Commission that the program be pursued and that they
petition the Board of County Commissioners to initiate
appropriate changes to the County FLUM.
B A C K G R 0 U N D
Objective B-3 within the Future Land Use Element addresses
the subject of annexations. It sets forth a program for
annexation, much of which is already accommodated. The City
has incorporated most of those properties which had made
prior (annexation) commitments and which were eligible to
be annexed. Remaining properties will be annexed as owners
of contiguous parcels seek development permission or through
the referendum process.
During development of the City's Future Land Use Map (FLUM),
there was coordination with the County so that consistency
among land use designations for territory which was under
County jurisdiction but within the City's ultimate
annexation (planning) area would occur. However, for some
reason, the degree of consistency which was desired did not
occur. This lack of consistency may create problems as
property is annexed to the City or is otherwise considered
for development e.g. a request for water service for a
project which is inconsistent with the City's land use
designations which, at this time, are considered only as
advisory. Thus, one aspect of the proposed program is to
achieve more consistency among respective land use
designations (within the City's Planning Area) than
currently exists.
A second aspect of the proposal is to seek some degree of
extra-territorial power for the City. This degree of power
could range from:
". "I'
"
P&Z Staff Report
Consideration of a Program to Achieve Consistency Between
the City and County Future Land Use Maps
Page 2
a) an agreement which acknowledges consistency between the
City and County FLUM's and allows the City FLUM
designation to take effect immediately upon annexation;
to ...
/~ b) an agreement which accommodates the above but which
also provides that the City's Land Development
Regulations (LDRs) apply with respect to allowable uses
and development standards. This agreement would be
implemented through a joint powers agreement which
would require either land use approval by both bodies
or by direct transfer of land use, permitting, and
enforcement authority to the City; to ...
c) an agreement which transfers the authority and
responsibility of the entire range of local government
services to the City as if the properties were already
annexed.
The balance of this report examines the two aspects ( FLUM
consistency & transfer of powers/authority) of the program
and then sets forth a recommended course of action.
FUTURE LAN D USE MAP S
To identify current inconsistencies, the City prepared a
matrix showing the FLUM designations under both the City and
County Plans, the zoning pursuant to the County regulations,
and the existing land use for individual parcels. This
exercise resulted in the identification of fifty-three (53)
distinct situations. Under separate cover that matrix and
accompanying maps have been provided to Board Members. The
matrix was then refined to show only those areas which
should be subjected to either a City or County FLUM
amendment in order to provide the most appropriate future
land use designation.
The amendments which should be considered were then
categorized according to the following:
a) those which eliminate the potential for strip
commercial or other inappropriate general retail
development (pursuant to City Comprehensive Plan
policies and direction).
b) those which correct inaccuracies between current City
and County boundaries.
,
P&Z Staff Report
Consideration of a Program to Achieve Consistency Between
the City and County Future Land Use Maps
Page 3
c) those which best reflect existing land use based upon a
determination that the correct land use is that which
is appropriate as a long term land use.
d) those which otherwise provide for consistency in favor
of the City's FLUM.
Classifying individual areas pursuant to the above results
in the following:
Group (a)
-- Elimination of Inappropriate Commercial Potential --
* Three (3) parcels, north side of Atlantic between the
Rod and Gun Restaurant and Windy Creek Subdivision.
(3B, 3C, 3D)
* Two (2) parcels, north side of Atlantic across from
Barnett Bank. (6 & 6A)
* An area, east of Military Trail~ situated off of an
easement and without direct exposure to that arterial
roadway. (9 )
* Two (2) parcels, east side of Military Trail
immediately north of Country Manor. (17 & 18).
* An area west of Pines Plaza, south of Atlantic, and
behind a bank. There is not exposure to Atlantic
Avenue (23).
* An area south of Atlantic, immediately west of Markland
Lane (undeveloped). (24)
* An area on the west side of Military Trail, bounded on
the north and west by High Point and on the south by a
canal with K-Mart further to the south. (27)
Group (b)
-- Correction of Boundary Errors --
* Two (2) areas, northeast of Kingsland (2 & 3A)
* The north Federal Highway enclave area (44)
Group (c)
--Appropriate for existing land use --
* Kingland Pines should have a higher density (LR-3 to
MR-5) to reflect existing development. (4)
'. "'i'
P&Z Staff Report
Consideration 'of a Program to Achieve Consistency Between
the City and County Future Land Use Maps
Page 4
* Sunset Pines Condos should have a higher density (MR-5
to HR-8) to reflect existing development. (7 )
* Industrial area (trucking terminal), west side of
Military Trail. Shown as HR-8 in the County; and as
Transitional on the City FLUM. Both FLUM's should be
changed to Industrial or Commerce use. (33)
* Old subdivision at Conklin Drive and Military Trail and
surrounding area should have a higher density (LR-3 to
MR-5) to reflect existing development. (35 & 32)
* Institutional uses west of Delray Community Hospital
(HR-8 to INST-18). (42)
* The office portion of Hardrives, west of Congress. (47)
Group (d)
-- To otherwise be consistent with the City FLUM --
* Area around the former Mayfair DRI proposal which
petitioned the City for a Rural Residential
designation. (10, 10A, 15)
* Three parcels (3), east side of Barwick, across from
Pine Tree Subdivision. (12, 13, 14)
* Blood's Grove to reflect the .City's mixed use
designation. (20)
Resolving the above noted inconsistencies can be accommodate
through two ways. One is to proceed with individual
consideration of each area (parcel). Under County
regulations (as well as City), it is necessary to not only
notify the directly affected property owner but all property
owners within 500 feet of the perimeter of the property
which is subject to change. Using this process wil1
necessitate many mailings and also may create a significant
amount of unwarranted anxiety. Another way involves the
County "blanking out" its FLUM designations within the
City's designated Planning Area and recognizing the City's
FLUM designations in-lieu of the County's. This process
would involve notice to directly affected property owners
along with appropriate 1/4 page map notices of public
workshops and public hearings on the matter.

TRANSFER o F AUTHORITY
As described previously in this report, there are three
degrees to which a transfer of authority could occur.
Briefly these are:
../ ./'
a) immediate change of FLUM designation from County to
City upon annexation;
b) transfer of authority with respect to land use (with
or without concurrent permitting and enforcement
authori ty) ;
c) transfer of authority for the complete range of
municipal services i.e. as if annexation had already
occurred.
The third option (c) appears to be too bold at present.
Option {a} is readily accommodated. To occur consistency
should be achieved between land use designations. Option
(b) is reasonable to pursue given that the impacted area is
relatively small {2 sq. miles +/-}, and that such an action
is generally consistent with policy directives in both the
current Plans of the County and the City.
CONSISTENCY OF PROPOSED ACTION WITH PLANS AND STATUTES .
COMPREHENSIVE PLANS:
The efforts to resolve the FLUM inconsistencies identified
herein, to have the County recognize the City's annexation/
planning area, and to consider the transfer of
jurisdictional powers relating to land use authority are
supported by various components of both the City and County
Comprehensive Plan. The following is a list of the portions
of each Plan which address these items. Copies of the
relevant portions of each Plan are attached.

FLORIDA STATUTES:
The interlocal agreements referenced herein are supported by
Florida Statues, Section 163.317I. This section allows a
County to enter into interlocal agreements, with
municipalities, allowing the municipality to include
unincorporated areas in the area of municipal jurisdiction
for the purposes of comprehensive planning. In addition,
the agreement may include procedures for the administration
of land development regulations. {see attachment}
PRO P 0 SED PROGRAM
In considering all of the above, the most appropriate
program seems to be one which results in the County FLUM not
containing any specific land use designations within the
City's designated planning area, but rather, for it to refer
to the City FLUM; and, an interlocal agreement with provides
that the City FLUM designations apply and further that all
land use authority including land use approval, LOR
compliance, permitting, and land use enforcement reside with
the City of Delray Beach.
However, at a minimum, it is necessary that the County
initiate amendments to its FLUM in order to correct boundary
errors and to remove the potential for inappropriate
commercial land uses.
ALTERNATIVE COURSES OF ACTION
I. Do not take any action. Do not forward this i tern to
the City Commission.
2. Recommend that the City proceed with the Proposed
Program.

6A, 9, 17, 18, 23, 24, and 27 as described in the staff
report and also to consider an amendment which will provide
that the City's Future Land Use Map takes precedent within
the City's Planning Area; and further, that there
subsequently be an inter local agreement which transfers land
use permitting and enforcement authority to the City for all
development within its Planning Area.

FROM: CITY MANAGER
SUBJECT: AGENDA ITEM # ~ L- - MEETING OF OCTOBER 27. 1992
RESOLUTION NO. 120-92
DATE: OCTOBER 23, 1992
This is a resolution initiating an awards recognition program through
the Site Plan Review and Appearance Board.
The Community Appearance Board (CAB) originally initiated an awards
program in the Spring of 1986. Awards were based on the aesthetic
qualities of development projects, which included landscaping,
architectural elevations and signage.
With the adoption of the LDRs, the CAB was renamed Site Plan Review
and Appearance Board (SPRAB). During this transition, the awards
program was discontinued. The Board now feels that it is appropriate
to initiate a SPRAB award program.
The awards program would acknowledge property owners and/or developers
who have significantly contributed to the beauty of the City through
creative site design. Award categories will include architecture;
best overall design; and signs. Recipients of the awards will receive
a framed certificate. The cost of the program is approximately $200
per year. The first awards are tentatively scheduled for the November
17th regular Commission meeting.
Recommend approval of Resolution 120-92.

INITIATION OF SITE PLAN REVIEW AND APPEARANCE BOARD
AWARDS RECOGNITION PROGRAM
ACTION REQUESTED OF THE COMMISSION:
The action requested of the City Commission is that of
initiation of an awards recognition program for outstanding
designs which contribute to the community of the City .of
Delray Beach.
BACKGROUND:
The Community Appearance Board (CAB) originally initiated an awards
program in the spring of 1986 via Resolution No. 22-86. Awards
were based on the aesthetic qualities of development projects,
which included landscaping, archit~ctural elevations and signage.
In October of 1990, with the Citywide rezoning and adoption of
the LOR's, the CAB was renamed the Site Plan Review and
Appearance Board (SPRAB) , and new Board members were appointed.
The Board was given expanded powers and responsibilities to
include not only aesthetic review of projects but also, approval of
site and development plans. Now that the SPRAB has been
functioning as such for 2 years, the Board members felt it was
appropriate to initiate a SPRAB award program, which is the item
now before the Commission.
The awards program would acknowledge property owners and/or
developers who have significantly contributed to the beauty of
the City through creative site design. Award categories will
include architecture; landscaping; exterior renovation;
redevelopment; CBO development; best overall design; and signs.
Recipients of the awards will receive a framed certificate which
will be handed to them at a City Commission meeting. The first
of such awards are scheduled for the City Commission meeting of
November 17, 1992.

Dear Mr. Abou-Jaoude:
Reference: Recommendation of Award
Rehabilitation of Lift Stations 19A, 20A, 23 and 32
City Project No. 91-102
Bids were r~ceived, opened and read aloud jn the first floor City Hall Conference Room
at 2:00 P.M. on Thursday, September 24, 1992 for the Rehabilitation of Lift Stations 19A,
20A, 23 and 32. These bids were received under City Bid Number 92-67. There were five
bids received with the lowest being submitted by Widell Associates, Inc. of Fort Lauderdale,
Florida, in the amount of $332,000.00. This is 2.6% below the second low bidder and 40%
below the highest bidder. This bid is also 5% above the Engineer's estimate. A certified
bid tabulation is attached for your review and information~
We have reviewed the bid information submitted by Widell Associates, Inc. which includes
the Bid Form, Non-Collusive Affidavit, Sworn Statement for Public Entity Crimes, Drug
Free Workplace Certification, Bid Bond and Power of Attorney, Bidders Information and
Questionnaire. All of this information appears to be complete and acceptable. We,
therefore, recommend award of this construction project to Widell Associates, Inc. of Fort
Lauderdale, Florida, in the amount of $332,000.00.
We are all aware of the concerns and construction problems which may occur during the
rehabilitation of pump station number 32. This pump station is in the middle of a circular
driveway of a home owned by a person who has caused problems for the City on previous
construction projects. Widell Associates, Inc. may be interested in constructing an entirely
new pump station in the right-of-way in front of the vacant lot adjacent to the existing
location. The costs indicated in the proposal for rehabilitating pump station number 32
and the construction of the entirely new station at 20A are similar, If Widell Associates,
Inc. pursues this alternate location, then I believe the City should seriously consider their
proposal. The major reason for moving the station would be to minimize the construction
problems which may be created by this resident. The City would also have a brand new
pump station instead of a rehabilitated pump station.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Ted Glas
Purchasing Officer
FROM: Joe Weldon
Director of Parks and Recreation
SUBJECT: Bid # 92-77, Bus Rental Services
DATE: October 21, 1992
Attached please find a tab sheet for bus rental services for the Parks
and Recreation Department. Three firms bid on this service with the
apparent low bidder being Quality Transportation. Three items were
bid: rental for the bus only with the low bid being $1 per mile; bus
rental with driver with the low bid being $1.90 per mile; and bus
rental with driver for the summer recreation program only with the low
bid being $1.90 per mile. All three options require $150 premium per
month per bus for $1,000,000 liability insurance. Using these three
options over the course of a year, I anticipate spending approximately
$33,000 in bus rental services. As a comparison, we paid the School
Board $31,000 for the summer recreation program alone, and spent a
total of about $45,000 for all bus services last year.
The following are the accounts and the amounts of money budgeted:
After School Program: 001-4105-572-44.AKr~$10,000
Rocks Football Program: 115-0000-248-78.00 4,000

DATE: October 20, 1992
SUBJECT: DOCUMENTATION - CITY COMMISSION MEETING -
OCTOBER 27, 1992 - PURCHASE AWARD -
MOWER FOR GOLF COURSE
Item Before City Commission:
The City Commission is requested to approve the purchase of one (1)
Toro Reelmaster Mower from Hector Turf, at a cost of $19,639.44. Per
the Finance Department, funding is from: Acct #445-4761-572-64.90
(Capital Outlay - Other Mach/Equipment).
Background:
Funds were allocated in the FY 92-93 budget for a 5 gang hydraulic
mower. A total of $30,000.00 was budgeted. The hydraulic mower was

PRESENTATION TO DELRAY BEACH CITY COMMISSION
ON
ROBERT LEATHERS PLAYGROUNDS
The following information is presented in support of building a Robert
Leathers Playground at Veterans Park.
1.) Robert Leathers is an architect that has specialized in building
children's playgrounds. Mr. Leathers has built over 650
playgrounds in 38 states and 2 foreign countries (Australia and
Israel) . Mr. Leathers has been featured in such magazines as
Parent's Guide, Time, and Readers Digest. These articles are
included in your information packet for your review. Mr.
Leathers' playgrounds are designed and built by the citizens of
the community, typically with all funding and supplies donated by
individuals and businesses of the community. Mr. Leathers
incorporated his company in 1980. Two of his earliest playgrounds
were built in 1981 and 1982 in Webster, New York and Lansing, New
York, respectively. Both of these facilities are elementary
school, Holy Trinity School in Webster, New York and Lansing
Elementary School in Lansing, New York. I talked to
representatives of these schools recently and was advised the
playground equipment is in very good condition and heavily used by
the students at these schools. I have the names and telephone
numbers of the representatives I talked to if you would like to
verify this information.
2. ) Also in your packet are letters from 12 cities or counties and 2
school boards that have built and are very happy with Robert
Leathers Playgrounds. These communities and school boards were
selected from Florida and Connecticut, both states with salt water
environments.
3. ) Concerns have been raised that wood is an unsafe building material
for children's playground equipment. Unfortunately, there has
been and is still some wooden playground equipment on the market
that has been proven as unsafe and unreliable. Most of these, I
believe, have been made of natural woods such as redwood or cedars
and not pressure treated wood as used by Robert Leathers. Mr.
Leathers uses only dense select structural southern yellow pine
that is pressure treated to inhibit deterioration of the wood.
Mr. Leathers' wood goes through a very exact pressure treating
process that is outlined in the information that is contained in
your packet.
4 . ) The Consumer Product Safety Commission, the Federal agency
responsible for overseeing the safety of playground equipment,
does not differentiate between wood, metal or plastic as a
preferred building material. If wood were an unsafe building
material, you can be sure the Consumer Product Safety Commission
would recommend against it, which it does not. More important
than whether the playground is made of wood or metal is the type
surface on which it is installed. The Consumer Product Safety
Commission did a special study of playground injuries and
identified falls to hard surfaces from equipment as the most
common injury associated with playground equipment.
,
,
2
5. ) Even though wood is an excellent construction material, it is
susceptible to splintering. Mr. Leathers minimizes this problem
by using the best wood available as previously noted. Further,
the edges of each board are rounded by a router that greatly
reduces the splinters commonly found along the edges. Each board
is also power sanded or hand sanded to eliminate rough spots.
Additionally, the wood is sealed to reduce checking and
splintering, which might occur if the wood were allowed to dry
naturally. Lastly, maintenance programs will resand and reseal
the wood at least on an annual basis. All of our playground
equipment is inspected by our Park Maintenance personnel at least
every 10 - 14 days to insure there are no hazards that could
injure any of our children.
6.) Concerns have also been raised that the chemicals used to pressure
treat the wood (chromated copper arsenate) may be hazardous to
children. Extensive studies done by the Consumer Product Safety
Commission have determined that the use of chromated copper
arsenate on wood treated playground equipment poses a negligible
risk to children. A letter from the Florida Department of Natural
Resources attesting to that fact is included in your information
packet.
7.) All hardware and fasteners such as bolts and screws are either
double-dipped galvanized or electrogalvanized and are oversized to
increase structural integrity. Typically, drive screws are used
in place of nails to provide greater structural integrity.
8.) The architectural firm for the renovation of Veterans Park, Currie
Schneider Associates, enthusiastically endorses the Robert
Leathers Playground as the playground for Veterans Park. Their
endorsement is included in your information packet.
9.) Wood playground equipment is not new to the City of Delray Beach.
We currently have wood playground equipment at Barwick Park,
Miller Park and Knowles Park, and have experienced no significant
problems.
lO.) A check with the insurance industry indicated there is no
difference in insurance rates for wood or metal playground
equipment, which indicates that wood presents no more liabilities
than its alternative, metal.
11.) Lastly, we have an opportunity to design and build a unique
playground at Veterans Park that cannot be duplicated out of a
catalog. I don't need to tell you what a renovated Veterans Park
is going to mean to the citizens and downtown of our community.
Everyone I talked to who had built a Robert Leathers Playground
indicated that the playground drew people from miles around
because of its uniqueness and attraction to families and children. "
But more importantly, they all emphasized that the fundraising and
the building of the playground had a tremendous influence on
bringing the community together. Newtown, Connecticut reported
over 1,000 volunteers; Sanibel, Florida - 600 volunteers; Orlando,
'.
.
f
I 3
.
-
Florida - 2,000 volunteers; and New Port Richey, Florida reported
over 3,000 volunteers participated in fundraising and construction
of their playground. The Charlotte County Chamber of Commerce has
designated their Leadership Charlotte program to lead the drive to
build a Robert Leathers Playground in Charlotte County to attract
families from allover the county.
The concern raised about wood is that it is unsafe because it is
susceptible to rot and decay. The information I presented tonight
shows that pressure treated wood as specified by Robert Leathers is an
excellent building material for children's playgrounds. What better
building material is there in a salt water environment than pressure
treated wood? When we built our pavilion, gazebos and lifeguard towers
at the. beach, we did not use metal that was susceptible to rust and
salt water corrosion; we used pressure treated wood. When we built our
piers at our City Marina, we did not use metal that was susceptible to
rust and salt water corrosion; we used pressure treated wood. When we
built our new boat docks at Veterans Park, we did not use metal; we
used pressure treated wood. Now we have the opportunity to design and
build a unique playground and we again should use pressure treated wood
that will provide for an aesthetically pleasing, durable and strong
playground for our children at Veterans Park.
Thank you.

Dear !'Iirs & Harty &
On behalf of the above named organization, I would like to
appeal the October 21st decision of the 8i te Plan Re~vie..\'lJaa.d.:Appearance
Board regarding playground equipment in Veterans Park.
The basis for our appeal is that SPRAB considered only the
aesthetic nature of the equipment, so stating in their vote.
Thus, none of the safety and liability issues were considered
in their voting. Since June 1992, we have been submitting
information to SPRAB and to city officials citing serious
safety concerns with wooden equipment.
Therefore, we would want the City Commission to consider all
aspects of wooden equipment, and reverse the SPRAB decision,
which, just on aesthetics, was a close J-2 vote.
We ask that the City Commission hear this appeal.

Until 1981 the playgrounds were a nonprofit hobby
for Leathers, who has all the e~ergy of a hyperactive
ll-year-old. His wife says "he even sleeps at 100 miles
per hour." Even so, at approximately 40 playgrounds
a year, he has had to incorporate the projects into his
regular architectural practice. Playgrounds now make
up 40 percent of his firm's output. He charges less for
them, however-his fees for designing, organizing and
supervising the construction of a playground range
" from $1,500 to $6,500.

previous September, staying with a local family to
cut the community's costs. He had met with students,
designed playgrounds for Washington Elementary
School and Mount Vernon Middle School, whipped up
enthusiasm and buzzed out of the nearby Cedar Rapids
airport, leaving precise guidelines for committees to
be formed, money to be raised, and materials and tools
to be begged, borrowed or, only as a last resort, bought.
Project coordinator Jackie Martin, a preschool teacher
and author of children's books, and fellow volunteers
found themselves responsible for making two commu-

35 kids gleaned a farmer's fields for unharvested corn,
tossing two tons of ears into a pickup truck for sale to
a grain elevator. Then there was the monster "garage
sale" in a big auction hall, when Mount Vernon's
citizens gathered to buy back the various castoffs they
had previously donated, everything from water heaters
to a pedigreed black-and-white rabbit, which went for
nine dollars. The sale netted another $5,500. A Cornell
social group raised about $300 collecting deposit cans
and bottles. And there was a chicken dinner, raffies
and a Rotary versus Lions basketball game, plus in-
dividual and business donations. Suddenly it was
spring and the playground committee found, to its
astonishment, that it had raised $40,000.

On Saturday, sunny and warm, 350 volunteers
buzzed with news. Real estate agent Lee Niederhauser
had told Roberta Ringold, the school superintendent's
wife, that she had just sold a house to clients impressed
by the playgrounds and the community's spirit.
"I knew we could do it, but I didn't think we could
do it this well," commented Stephanie Frantz, holding
a hammer. "Did you know that a grandparent donated
the oak tree that became the big beam to hold up that
tire swing? And I've learned to use tools my husband
said I never could."
"I figure I'll use this playground lots." said Ebe

Dear Joe:
Thank you for your inquiry concerning a comparison of metal
or wooden playground equipment. It was suggested that
plastic playground equipment was also an alternative. There
was no consensus among the people whom I contacted. The
variety of response is as follows:
* Clearwater, FL. Lou Dacey, Recreational Facilities
Supervisor, (813 ) 462-6563.
Although metal playground is more difficult to
construct, Lou prefers it over wooden equipment which
tend s to rot at ground level. Vandalism is not as
much of a problem with metal as it is with wood. And
if you include installation money in your budget, the
liability for accidents due to poor construction stays
with the contractor.
* Tampa, FL. Frank Ruis, Project Planning Coordinator,
(813) 931-2630.
The preference here is for wood, usually redwood or
pressure-treated yellow pine. The reason given for
preferring wood is that if the metal is not galvanized
it will rust. To prevent wood rot, concrete footers
are used. Plastic is not used because it is so
susceptible to vandalism.
* Panama City, FL. Mr. Goodwin, (904) 872-3095.
Their only experience has been with metal and plastic'
equipment.
* Jacksonville, FL. Eddie Hill, Superintendent of Park
Serv ices, (904) 630-3556.
For long range service, metal is preferred. Wood
usually has a ten-year warranty, and the costs are not
that different. Their choice of metal or wood depends
on location, using wood where metal might corrode as
at t;he beach, or wood in a wooded area to blend with
the surroundings. They prefer to contract out
installation because the liability then stays with the
contractor.

"
* Deerfield Beach, FL. Jan Muenzenmaier, (305) 480-'-
4200.
" Their experience with wood and metal has brought them
back to selecting metal for playground equipment. It
lasts longer and is available in a selection of bright
colors which is usually more attractive to children.
Their preference, however, is plastic which is
available in swing sets, gyms, merry-go-rounds, and
whirls. The drawback on plastic to them is the cost.
* Boca Raton, FL. Joe Cogley, Superintendent of Parks,
(407 ) 395-7813.
Wooden playground equipment requires more maintenance
than metal requires: sanding, preservative, etc. Metal
may be too hot for play in some areas. Again location
dictates which is used where. Plastic is used because
of the 70 year wearability. However, it can cost
three times as much and you have to be careful about
design because of its structural strength.
I hope this information is helpful to you. If we can be of
further assistance, please do not hesitate to call.
Sincerely

Dear Joe,
I would like to provide the following information based on
your request regarding wood preservatives.
There have been many questions asked about the health hazard
of wooden playground equipment that has been treated with ChroJllated
copper Arsenate CCCA). A study conducted by the Consumer Product
Safety Commission concludes that manufactures of wood playground
equipment have the technology to treat products with CCA so that
dislodgeable arsenic is below detectable levels.
This study was conducted by the Health Sciences staff of the
Consumer Product Safety Commission to estimate the risk of skin
cancer from dislodqeable arsenic on pressure treated wood
playground equipment.
Arsenic has been associated with human skin cancer when
Chronically ingested. The wood preservative used in most of the
u.s. wood playground equipment is chromated copper arsenate (CCA).
CPSC field staff conducted the tests using cotlUllercially
treated wood products containing CCA. The results of the field
tests clearly indicate HBGLIGIBLB RISX.
The test results indicate the use of CCA on wood treated
playground equipment is acceptable. I would suggest that before
purchasing any wood products treated with CCA the manufacture
provide you with documentation that their product has been
appropriately treated and is safe. If I may be of additional
assistance, please write to the letterhead address, mail station
#595 or call me at (904) 498-7996.

PRESSURE-TREATED LUMBER
The lumber used in Leathers' playgrounds is treated with CCA (chromated copper arsenate) to inhibit
deterioration of the wood. Concerns are occasionally raised about the safety of treated wood for
playground use. We are continually monitoring the research of health department officials,
En~ironmental Protection Agency (EPA), Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) officials, and
representatives of the wood preservative industry. All these groups and more have researched this
issue, and all information to date concludes that this lumber is safe for playground use. The following
are answers to some of the most commonly asked questions about pressure-treated wood:
What type of wood is used to build leathers' playgrounds? We specify dense select structural
southern yellow pine, pressure treated with CCA-B or CCA-C to a retention level of .40 IbsJcu. ft. It
must meet AWPB standard LP-22, be free of visible surface deposits, and redried after treatment to
a maximum moisture content of 19%. The treatment chemicals shall be oxide (not salt) based. The
treater must be licensed by either Hickson Corporation (Wolmanized) or Osmose. This wood differs
from that found in typical lumber yards in several ways. First, it will have little or no wane (bark) on
the edges and all knots will be small and tight. Defects in the surface of the wood, such as these,
create places for the treatment chemical to pool or collect. By specifying clean, smooth boards we
reduce and virtually eliminate this problem. Second, typically wood is shipped to lumber yards right
out of the treatment vat. It is heavy, "wer with water and chemical. The chemical becomes bonded
or fixed to the wood as it dries. By specifying wood that has been re-dried after treatment, we ensure
that this fixation process has occurred before we use it to build a play structure.
Is pressure-treated wood harmful to the children who use the playground? The children's
exposure to arsenic is negligible. Arsenic is a naturally occurring trace element. It is in the air we
breathe, the water we drink and the food we eat. The average daily consumption of arsenic by
humans in food and water in the United States is 80 micrograms (USDA, p. XV). Arsenic from lumber
is not absorbed through the skin, nor does the lumber give off any vapors. In 1990 the Consumer
Product Saiet)'Commission produced a study on CCA wood used in playgrounds. They developed
a standard test method to detect arsenic residue on the wood. Five out of the seven samples
collected by CPSC from playground manufacturers had arsenic levels below their detectable limit of
6.3 ug/100 cm2 (micrograms per hundred square centimeters). The highest skin cancer risk estimate
that could be applied to these samples was less than one per million (CPSC, p. 69). We tested
existing Leathers' playgrounds following the new CPSC procedures and in all cases found levels below
0.8 ug/100 cm2, far below CPSC's detectable limit.
Is pressure-treated wood harmful to the volunteer construction workers? A study in Hawaii
comparee a group of carpenters who used pressure-treated wood extensively to a group with limited
exposure. The study concluded that exposure to dust from arsenically treated wood is not associated
with increased risk (USDA, p. 124). Volunteers who work on the playground have drastically less .
exposure than a full-time carpenter. Further, tests on our wood during construction showed arsenic
levels of 2.8 ug/1oo cm2 before sealing. This a far below the detectable limit of 6.3 ug/100 cm2 in the
CPSC study.

Why is the wood sealed during construction? Even though we have found only very low levels
of arsenic on the raw lumber, we apply a wood sealer to our structures. Though this is primarily
intended to keep the wood from checking and splitting, it also places a thin film of waxes and resins
between the children and any possible arsenic residue. Although the CPSC and the California
Department of Health Services studies disagree about the value of wood sealers, our experience has
always shown the sealer to be effective in reducing the already low levels of residue. The sealer we
specify is a linseed oil based product, and it meets CARB air pollution regulations with no more than
350 grams per liter of volatile organic compounds.
Are' splinters or slivers a problem with this wood? Wood is an excellent construction material, it
is easily obtained, lightweight yet strong,.and has a richness of feel and appearance. Nonetheless,
splinters, natural defects in the wood, can pose a problem. Our experience has been that these
problems can virtually be eliminated by using the best wood available, construction techniques that
minimize splinters, and regular maintenance. The quality of the lumbers has already been discussed.
This lumber, however, will be processed further during construction to alleviate splinters. The edges
of each board will be rounded with a router. This greatly reduces the splinters commonly found along
the edge. All items will be power sanded and hand sanded to eliminate sharp or rough areas that may
cause sliver problems. Finally, as previously mentioned, the lumber will be sealed to reduce the
checking and splitting which would occur if the wood were allowed to dry excessively. To keep the
wood in sound, splinter-free condition it should be sanded and re-sealed yearly. Extensive information
is provided on this and other maintenance procedures in our Long-Term Care Packet.
Why not use naturally resistent woods? Failure due to termite damage or rot has been
documented in cedar and redwood as early as seven years after installation. For these woods, in
contact with the ground, an average life of ten years is assumed. For above-ground use, an average
life of fifteen years is assumed for these species (USDA, p. 339). Compared to treated southern pine,
western cedar costs 73 percent more, and redwood costs 90 percent more (USDA, p. 340). Further,
insect-resistant redwood and cedar are decreasing in availability (CDHS, p. 30), and environmentalists
are becoming increasingly concerned about logging these old-growth forests. Wood treated to our
specifications with CCA is guaranteed for 40 or more years against rot or insect damage. Southern
Yellow Pine is also much more dense than cedar or redwood which gives the screws used to build the
structure significantly more holding power, and inhibits wear in the wood.
What about using other less toxic preservatives? There are less toxic preservatives such as
Niedox-1 0, copper-B, and copper napthenate. These substances, however, have not been proven to
have long-term effectiveness in preventing wood decay. Further, the health significance of exposure
to napthenates has not been as thoroughly tested as CCA (CDHS, p.31). We will continue to research
alternative preservatives but, to date, no other options are more valid than the use of CCA.

Why not build the playgrounds out of plastic or metal? We are currently testing plastic wood
made from recycled jugs and containers. This "wood" has very poor structural properties, burns
readily, and its ability to withstand the harsh northern or extreme southern climates is still not proven.
We will continue to monitor progress in creating better plastic wood products, but to date these are
not a viable alternative to treated wood. Due to potential exposure to chemicals, the California study
looked at the option of banning all wood playground equipment and using only metal or plastic. They
state, "This radical action is unnecessary, particularly when there are steps that can be taken to
mitigate exposure to the chemical preservatives. There is some evidence that metal equipment may
pose a higher injury risk than wooden equipment." (CDHS, p. 30.)
We hope this information has been helpful. If you have any further questions or concerns, please
contact our office at any time.

FROM: CITY MANAGER [L-Jv'/
SUBJECT: AGENDA ITEM # CJC - MEETING OF OCTOBER 27. 1992
ORDINANCE NO. 46-92
DATE: OCTOBER 23, 1992
This item involves an ordinance rezoning and placing land presently
zoned PC (Planned Commercial) district in the GC (General Commercial)
district; said land being located at the southeast corner of Linton
Boulevard and S.W. 10th Avenue (western portion of Linton
International Plaza). At a continuation of the public hearing at the
special meeting of October 20th, concerns were raised with respect to
internal traffic patterns and the potential effect of the Checkers
Restaurant on traffic flow wi thin Linton International Plaza. On a
4-1 vote (Dr. Alperin dissenting), the Commission closed the public
hearing, deferred final action to October 27th, and requested
additional information from the applicant in terms of a traffic impact
study. This report will be made to the Commission at the regular
meeting.
The proposed rezoning is to accommodate a free-standing 766 square
foot drive-thru and walk-up Checkers Restaurant. Restaurants are
allowed as a permitted use within the PC zone district. However,
within the PC zone district, the minimum square footage for a
free-standing building is 6,000 square feet. As there are no minimum
square footage requirements for restaurants in the GC zone district,
rezoning is requested.
At their September 21st meeting the Planning and Zoning Board
recommended approval of the rezoning by a 6-1 vote. At first reading,
Mr. Mouw moved for adoption of Ordinance 46-92, seconded by Mr.
Randolph; upon roll call the motion passed on a 3-2 vote (Dr. Alperin
and Mr. Andrews dissenting).
Recommend approval of Ordinance No. 46-92 on second and final reading.

(CHECKERS)
ACTION REQUESTED OF THE COMMISSION:
The action requested of the City Commission is that of
approval of this rezoning ordinance on second reading.
SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION:
At first reading, this ordinance was approved on a 3-2 vote
after discussion ensued regarding policy implications pertaining
to out-parcel development and strip commercial development.
Both of these items were considered by the Planning and Zoning
Board, whichJ on a 6-1 vote, made findings - based upon the
specifics of this situation - that the requested rezoning was
not inconsistent with the Comprehensive Plan. Factors which
were considered in making that determination included:
- that there was no change in ingress/egress to the shopping
center;
- that there will be architectural consistency between
proposed development and the existing center;
- that the new development will follow the same pattern of
other structures in the shopping center i.e. will not be a
typical outparcel.
Given that the Planning and Zoning Board carefully considered
the above information and, by a 6-1, vote recommended approval,
if the City Commission fails to approve the rezoning, specific
policy direction should be provided.

MEMORANDUM
TO: MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSIONERS
FROM: CITY MANAGER
SUBJECT: AGENDA ITEM ff 9. D.I - MEETING OF OCTOBER 27. 1992
CONDITIONAL USE APPROVAL/TENNIS CENTER-STADIUM
DATE: OCTOBER 23, 1992
This item was deferred along with the rezoning request in order to
permit staff to acquire the property affected by this conditional use
application. This is a request for conditional use approval to
establish a Tennis Stadium as a part of the Municipal Tennis
facilities.
The proposed expansion will result in an increase from 12 to 19
tennis courts. The stadium will contain approximately 1,284 permanent
box seats and 1,789 permanent grandstand seats. During the 10 day
Virginia Slims Tournament, approximately 5,200 temporary bleacher
seats will be erected abutting the east and west grandstand seating.
The tennis courts within the stadium will be at existing grade. The
box seats will rise to an elevation of 11 feet, the grandstand seats
22 feet. Under the north end of the grandstand seating, two permanent
bathrooms with twelve fixtures each are proposed. Maintenance,
storage and mechanical rooms are proposed under the south end of the
grandstand seating.
The stadium will be lit to Television Broadcast standards, 125 candle
power, positioned on 65 feet high poles.
The Planning and Zoning Board at their August 20th meeting held a
public hearing on the conditional use request. During the public
hearing two members from the public spoke. One person objected to the
City's considering of a conditional use request for property that it
does not own. The other person voiced concern with regard to the
potential noise, lighting and traffic associated with the Tennis
Stadium. The Board then recommended approval of the conditional use
request..
The Board of Adjustments at their August 20th special meeting
considered variances to open space, offsite parking, setbacks, fence
heights, and lighting intensities. Variances were granted for
setbacks, fence heights, and lighting intensitiesj while the variances
for open space and offsite parking were denied. The open space
requirement has been met through a redefinition of the site. The
offsite parking issue will be accommodated by an LDR amendment. An
additional amendment may be required to accommodate the lighting on
the northwest corner of the site.
The Site Plan Review and Appearance Board recommends approval. A
detailed staff report is attached as backup material for this item.

I T E M B E FOR E THE BOA R D:
The action before the Board is that of making a recommendation
on a Conditional Use request to establish a "Tennis Stadium" as
a part of the Municipal Tennis Facilities.
The property is bounded by Atlantic Avenue to the south, N.W.

B A C K G R 0 U N D:
The tennis stadium will be located on the existing City Tennis

acquired by the City from A.J. McGrew via a tax default (tax
years 1927-1936). Block 52 and the south 1/2 of Block 51 were
acquired at approximately the same time. In August, 1935 a
field house, tennis courts, playground, playing field and
bleachers were constructed by the Works Project Administration
on a portion of the property. The field house was demolished to
make way for the current Community Center and additional tennis
courts in 1960. The underlying streets N.W. 2nd Avenue and N.W.
1st Street, were abandoned by Resolution No. 1225 on February
22, 1960.
Additional property, Lots 1-6, Block 44, and Lot 16, Block 43,
are currently in the process of being acquired by the City.

from 12 courts (10 clay and 2 hard courts) to 19 courts (13 clay
and 6 hard courts). Two of the hard courts will be built to
championship specifications, Court One and the Stadium Court.
The stadium will contain approximately 1,200 permanent box
seats and 1,800 permanent Grandstand seats (bleachers with
backs). During the 10 days of the Virginia Slims Tournament,

Avenue eastward of 1- 9 5 to Swinton Avenue. The land uses
are comprised of a mix of single family homes, duplexes,
mini-parks, scattered vacant parcels and commercial uses
along Atlantic Avenue and N.W. 5th Avenue. The Future Land
Use Element states the following regarding proposals for
properties located in redevelopment areas:
If a private development proposal is made within a
redevelopment area, one of the following options shall
be pursued:
* Acceleration of the redevelopment plan and
deferral of the land use request until the plan
is completed; or,
* Consideration of the use request on its own
merits with the existing zoning and policies of
the Comprehensive Plan guiding the disposition of
the request.
This is a request to establish a tennis stadium in
conjunction with the Municipal Tennis center expansion.
There is currently no redevelopment plan underway for this
area, and it would not be practical to defer action on this
request until such a plan has been prepared.
In a separate action, the entirety of the facility is being
rezoned to the CF designation. Pursuant to the purpose
statement for CF zoning [Section 4.4.2l(A)], it is deemed
compatible with all land use designations shown on the
Future Land Use Map.
The purpose statement of the CF zone district states that
CF zoning is a special purpose zone district primarily
intended for facilities which serve public and semi public
purposes. Within the CF zone district, tennis stadiums are
allowed as Conditional Uses.
Gi ven the above, it is appropriate to consider this request on
its own merits, under the proposed zoning.
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.

Streets and Traffic:
Pursuant to the Palm Beach County Traffic Performance Ordinance,
the Virginia Slims Women's Tennis Tournament is classified as a
special event and is not subject to the Traffic Performance
Standards. However, reoccurring events are not exempt.
Therefore, Traffic Performance Standards need to be met using
the following formula:
A determination of the anticipated number of week-day
events per year and the anticipated size of the crowds
would be ascertained. The total weekly attendance per year
would be divided by 260 week days per year to determine the
average daily trips generated.
Thus, prior to use of the stadium for activities other than a
"special event", approval under the CTPO (County Traffic
Performance Ordinance) will be required. Such an approval
cannot be pursued until a use program is established.
While Traffic Performance Standards are not an issue with the
tournament, the potential traffic impact of the stadium events
is a concern. A traffic engineering consultant has been hired
to assist in creating a traffic/parking program. Without an
organized traffic program, the traffic impact is anticipated to
be 900 vehicles (3,000 seat permanent stadium) corning to and
from an event. The existing four lane Atlantic Avenue can
support a demand of only 900 additional inbound vehicles during
a weekday daytime, and 750 inbound vehicles on a weekday evening
without a noticeable reduction in level of service. It is
estimated that during the weekday daytime, Atlantic Avenue can
support 350 additional vehicles in the outbound direction. In
the evening, the available capacity will be increased to 1,350
outbound vehicles. Based on projected traffic demands, the
anticipated areas of congestion would include:
* 1-95 interchange
* Atlantic Avenue (Swinton Avenue to 1-95)
* N.W. 1st Avenue, adjacent to the site
* Atlantic Avenue and N. W. 1st Avenue intersection
* Swinton Avenue (North 1st Street to South 1st Street)
The preliminary traffic report for the stadium has reconunended
the following improvements to maintain a reasonable level of
service with respect to traffic operations under a scenario of
major event parking being primarily in the CBD. These
improvements will not remove congestion, but will assist in
managing it.
* 1-95 ramp signal on Atlantic Avenue - needs police
control.
* Atlantic Avenue third lane eastbound and westbound
this will require special signing during tournament
demand times.
'. ..,
P&Z Staff Report
Tennis Stadium - Conditional Use
Page 5
* Atlantic Avenue and N.W. 1st Avenue - police
controlled.
* Atlantic Avenue and Swinton Avenue - police
controlled.
* Swinton Avenue and South 1st Street - police
controlled.
* Atlantic Avenue - eastbound closure of first block
east of Swinton Avenue, this will force traffic to
utilize the one-way pairs and allow for orderly
distribution to available parking lots.
* Swinton Avenue and North 1st Street - police
controlled
Other approaches to traffic and parking are available with
respect to a major event such as the Virginia Slims Tournament.
Traffic impacts may be further reduced depending upon the
specific parking solution which is selected, i.e. potential
off-site shuttle components (see discussion under Parking).
Water: A 12" water main exists along Atlantic Avenue, an 8"
water main exists along N. W. 1st Avenue, and a 10" water main
traverses the property. The tennis stadium will increase
potable water consumption demands associated with events in the
3,000 permanent seated stadium, as well as the anticipated 8,200
Virginia Slims attendees. However, this demand with respect to
water system concurrency is not a concern.
Sewer: An 8" sewer mains exist within N.W. 3rd Avenue and N.W.
1st Street, and internal to the existing tennis center site.
The associated tennis stadium with 3,000 permanent seats will
have permanent bathrooms with 12 fixtures each. During the
Virginia Slims tournament event additional, portable facilities
will be provided. Anticipated sewage flows will not impact
levels of sewer service.
Parks and Open Space: Expansion of the tennis facility will, in
part, fulfill needs for public tennis courts which is created by
population growth. The design of the facility creates a more
"open" relationship to Atlantic Avenue thus promoting open space
design policies of the Comprehensive Plan.
Solid Waste: A increase of solid waste material is anticipated
with the operation of the tennis stadium. This increase would
be compounded during the annual Virginia Slims Tournament.
Solutions for handling the solid waste will require additional
manpower to collect and process material similar to the manner
in which other special events are handled, i.e. Delray Affair.
.

Drainage: The tennis stadium will be part of the overall
drainage system for the tennis center which is located within
Wellfield Protection Zone 1 and 2. Pursuant to the County's
Wellfield Protection Ordinance, the management of drainage and
water retention is limited to surface retention, i.e. no
exfiltration. Given the intensity and limited surface retention
area available on the site, this created a unique problem.
After consideration of several alternatives, it was decided that
Lot 16, located at the northwest corner of N.W. 1st Street and
N.W. 2nd Avenue, should be acquired and used for surface water
retention. This lot is ideal as the natural elevations are
lower than the surrounding area.
Consistency: Compliance with the performance standards set
forth in Section 2.4.5(E)(5) (Conditional Use Findings) 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 the making of a finding of
overall consistency.
A review of objectives and policies of the adopted Comprehensive
Plan was conducted and the following applicable policy was
found:
Open Space and Recreation Element - Obiective A-2: Park
and recreation facilities shall be adequately and
efficiently provided through implementation of the
following policies: (b3)
Open Space and Recreation Element - Policy A-2.l: The City
shall provide additional park, recreation, and open space
facilities through enhancement of existing facilities,
major capital improvements, and the provision of new
services to geographic areas which do not have facilities
readily available to them. (c5)
Open Space and Recreation Element - Policy A-2. 2: The
City, through the Parks and Recreation Department, shall
place its first recreation priority on the provision of
facilities for activities which serve all residents of the
community and which can be achieved through completing the
development of existing park areas, enhancinq existing
facilities, and adding specialized items such as "tot lots"
to existing facilities.
Future Land Use Element - Policy C-2.4: The eastern
portion of the Atlantic Avenue redevelopment area shall
focus upon governmental and institutional uses thus
building upon the current investments in the County
Courthouse and City Hall expansion programs.
.
P&Z Staff Report
Tennis Stadium - Conditional Use
Page 7
The creation of a tennis stadium and refurbishing of the
existing tennis center will create a first class tennis facility
which meets the policies and objectives expressed above. In
addition, the refurbishing of the tennis center has been a
long planned improvement which will benefit all residents of the
City.
Section 2.4.5(E)(5) (Standards for Conditional Use Actions):
Pursuant to Section 2.4.5(E)(5) (Findings) in addition to
provisions of Section 3.1.1, 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; and
B. Nor that it will hinder development or redevelopment of
nearby properties.
This site is bordered by R-1A zoned properties to the west and
north, OSSHAD to the east, and Community Facility to the south.
The existing land uses to the west and north are single family
homes, to the east commercial and residential uses and to the
south Community Facilities (Palm Beach County Court House) and
commercial uses.
Compatibility concerns with the tennis stadium revolve around
the following issues:
Noise:
The tennis stadium will have a permanent public address system.
This P .A. system is anticipated to generate decibel levels of
between 90 and 100 at adjacent property lines. Pursuant to
Section 99.05 of the City Code of Ordinances, the maximum
allowable decibel level is 60 exterior and 45 interior daytime
levels, and 55 exterior and 45 interior evening levels.
The P.A. system is a necessary component of the proposed tennis
tournament activities. Mitigation of the associated noise
impact is difficult. Landscape material provided to the
perimeter of the site, i.e. trees and hedging, will have limited
buffering qualities. To reduce concerns over the noise levels,
it is recommended that the number of events which require
amplification over the maximums allowed by Section 99.05 be
limited.
Pursuant to Section 99.30, the City Manager has the authority to
grant special variances to noise restrictions for events not
exceeding 10 calendar days on a once-a-year specific event
basis. This special variance provision will be utilized to
accommodate the Virginia Slims Tournament. Other events which
exceed the decibel maximums will require special variances from
the Board of Adjustment or the City Manager.
..
"
P&Z Staff Report
Tennis Stadium - Conditional Use
Page 8
Lighting:
Lighting intensity is also a concern, as the tennis stadium will
be lighted to television standards of 125 candle power during
the Virginia Slims Tournament Event. Lighting alternatives are
being considered which would allow selection of less intense
lighting during normal operating hours versus special events.
Pursuant to LOR Section 4.6.8(A)(3), light intensities of up to
100 candles are allowed in display and storage areas, and 40
candles in all other areas. A variance from the Board of
Adjustment has been requested. All attempts will be made the
rest of the year to maintain lighting at the minimum levels
necessary to accommodate specific uses (see further discussion
under LOR Compl iance) . Perimeter hedging to be maintained at
6, , as well as trees 25' on center will be provided to mitigate
the spillover of lighting onto adjacent residential areas.
Parking:
Pursuant to Section 4.6.9(E)(2) all required off street parking
must be provided on the same lot as the uses for which it is
required. Given the unique nature of the facility, parking for
3,000 permanent seats (900 spaces) or 8,200 permanent and
temporary seats (2,460 parking spaces) cannot be provided on
site.
There is a potential for vehicles to park wherever possible
around the site. Additional police enforcement will be
necessary to minimize illegal parking during events utilizing
the stadium. Several parking solutions are being developed and
all factors including minimization of negative impacts on
adjacent properties will be considered when selecting the
acceptable parking solution (see further discussion under LOR
Compliance) .
Aesthetic Impacts:
The permanent stadium (1,200 box seats and 1,800 grandstand
seats) will have an elevation of approximately 22'. All events,
with the exception of the Virginia Slims Tournament, are
anticipated to utilize this permanent structure. Specific for
the tournament (10 days per year), temporary bleachers will be
erected on the east and west sides of the permanent stadium.
These bleachers are expected to reach an elevation of 36' on the
west side of the stadium, and 23' on the east side of the
stadium. Aesthetic impacts may be experienced with the stadium
and these temporary structures.
For the 50 weeks per year in which utilization of the permanent
stadium is anticipated, the perimeter buffering consisting of
12' high windscreened fencing, 6 ' hedging and trees 25' on
center should be adequate. However, during the Virginia Slims
Tournament bleachers having an elevation of 36' will be 15' from
,
P&Z Staff Report
Tennis Stadium - Conditional Use
Page 9
the west property line. To reduce the adverse aesthetic impact
the temporary bleachers will produce, additional vertical
elements of substantial height should be provided immediately
adjacent to the west temporary seating. In addition, soft
colors should be considered for the bleacher structures.
Compliance with Land Development Regulations:
Lighting Intensity: The tennis stadium will be lit to
television standards of 125 candle power. Pursuant to Section
4.6.8.(A)(3), light intensities of up to 100 candles are allowed
in display and storage areas, and 40 candles in all other areas.
A Board of Adjustment variance is being sought to accommodate
the increase in lighting intensity to 125 candles for special
events such as the tournament. To minimize the impacts of the
lighting on adjacent property, lights which provide two levels
intensity are being explored for the tennis stadium. One level
would provide normal operating intensities of approximately 40
candles, and the second an intensity of 125 candles required for
television viewing associated with the Virginia Slims
Tournament. All attempts will be made during the normal
operation of this facility throughout the remainder of the year
to maintain lighting at minimum levels.
Parking: Pursuant to Section 4.6.9(E)(2) all required off
street parking must be provided on the same lot as the uses for
which it is required. Section 4.6.9(C)(6)(a) requires .3
parking spaces per seat or 1 parking space per 50 sq. ft. total
floor area, whichever is greater. This equates to a requirement
of 900 spaces on a permanent basis and up to 2,640 spaces during
the tournament and other special events (8,200 seats) . Given
the unique nature of the facility with varying levels of demand,
it is not practical to provide all this parking on site on a
permanent basis. A variance to this section has been requested
from the Board of Adjustment based upon the unique nature of the
use.
Contractually, the City's obligation for the Virginia Slims
Tournament is to provide 750 parking spaces within 1,500' of the
site to accommodate the following: 75 spaces for VIP, 75 for
media personnel, 500 for box seat holders, and 100 spaces for
volunteers. An additional 2,250 spaces are required for general
use by normal ticket holders. ProviSion of adequate parking is
currently under review and four potential solutions have been
identified. It is noted the logistics of each scenario requires
fine tuning which has not been completed at this stage of the
review process. The solutions are as follows:
GENERAL PARKING (2,250 SPACES):
General parking will be provided under one of the scenarios
listed below:
'. 1.11
P&Z Staff Report
Tennis Stadium - Conditional Use
Page 10
1) Mass Parking:
Under this alternative, the general public would not be
directed to any specific parking area but would be allowed
to park in the surrounding areas as space allows. It is
anticipated that this approach would result in patrons
filling in available parking areas within a 6-10 block area
from the site. Large areas such as designated downtown
public parking lots, Veterans Park, Atlantic Plaza, the old
FPL building, old Winn Dixie Site, Rose Auto Parts, Sun
Bank, and the FEC Railroad reserve area and other parking
areas could be used in a manner similar to that which
occurs at the Delray Affair. This alternative provides the
downtown area with the greatest exposure and will allow
patrons a chance to experience downtown.
2) Satellite Parking:
This option would provide general parking at one or two
satellite lots. The patrons would then be bused to the
event from the satellite lots. Possible satellite lot
locations include the Delray Mall, County Administrative
Complex, Delray Park of Commerce, Delray Square, and
Congress Park. Delray Mall and Congress Park appear to be
the most suitable.
The advantage of this approach is that traffic congestion
in the vicinity of the tournament is reduced. However,
under this scenario exposure to the downtown area, which is
a goa I of having the tournament at the downtown location,
is minimal.
3) Multiple Satellite Parking:
Under this scenario multiple satellite parking areas (four
or five) will be identified and used to disperse patrons.
The same areas as identified under the limited satellite
scenario could be utilized. The advantages include the
ability to use smaller lots, the movement of traffic off
Atlantic Avenue onto alternative routes, and the
possibility of designating a parking area for each
different seat location at the tournament.
The disadvantages are that this solution is manpower
intensive requiring additional personnel to direct traffic.
It would also involve an increased number of buses and
shuttles, and additional signage to direct people to the
correct locations. The remote locations would also limit
exposure of the downtown area.
'.
P&Z Staff Report
Tennis Stadium - Conditional Use
Page 11
4) Downtown Parking with Shuttle Relief:
General purpose parking would be provided throughout the
downtown area similar to the mass parking scenario, with
relief parking to be provided at a single satellite
location (Congress Park) . Bus service would be provided
from the satellite location. The advantages include good
exposure for downtown, the majority of the parking close to
the event, and opportunities to organize nighttime
activities in the downtown area.
The above scenarios will continued to be "Fine Tuned" and the
best solution will be selected as the review process continues.
REQUIRED 750 PARKING SPACES WITHIN 1,500':
With each of the four potential parking arrangements, provision
of the 750 parking spaces required within 1,500' will be the
same. The VIP and box holder spaces will be comprised of the
new parking area which is to be provided along Atlantic Avenue
(53 spaces in Phase I and 76 spaces with Phase II), the existing
Community Center parking, the parking spaces north of City Hall,
and parking lots for Mt. Olive Missionary Baptist Church, and
the Seventh Day Adventist Church. The media will park at the
old police station south of Atlantic Avenue, while the volunteer
parking is proposed at the public lot of Block 92 (north of
Atlantic Avenue at the FEC Railroad). Again, as with the other
scenarios, this option is subject to fine tuning and
adjustments.
o THE R:
Street Closure:
To accommodate the Tennis Stadium and the supporting number 0 f
tennis courts, additional site area is required. This
additional site area is gained through the closure of N.W. 1st
Street for the encroachment of physical improvements. These
improvements include a portion of Courts 1-4, associated
perimeter fencing, temporary bleachers and landscaping. The
encroachment of physical improvements in the public right-of-way
will require approval by the City Engineer.
A garage located on Lot 8, Block 43 takes access from N.W. 1st.
Avenue and provisions for a driveway access are provided on the
site plan. In addition, it is noted that a minimum of 14 ' of
landscaping is maintained within the right-of-way to buffer Lot
8.

Page 12
REV I E W B Y o THE R S:
This is in a geographic area requiring review by the CRA
(Community Redevelopment Agency). In addition a courtesy review
by the DDA (Downtown Development Authority) was conducted.
If the Conditional Use request is approved, a site plan must be
submitted for review by the Site Plan Review and Appearance
Board. The site plan is to be generally consistent with the
sketch plan and conditions of Conditional Use approval.
Community Redevelopment Agency:
The CRA reviewed the Conditional Use request at its meeting of
August 5, 1992. The CRA recommended approval of the Conditional
Use request to establish a tennis stadium and the associated
overall expansion of the tennis center.
Downtown Development Aqency:
The DDA reviewed the Conditional Use request, rezoning request
and the site plan for the tennis center expansion at its August
10, 1992 meeting. The DDA endorsed the expansion and expressed
a desire to maximi ze exposure of the downtown area during the
Virginia Slims Tournament. To this end, the DDA supported the
mass parking scenario and desires a trolley system running along
Atlantic Avenue from downtown parking areas to the tournament
site.
Neiqhborhood Notice:
Formal public notice has been provided to property owners within
a 500' radius of the subject property. A courtesy notice has
been sent to several interested parties from surrounding
homeowner associations.
ASS E SSM E N T AND CON C L U S ION S:
From a compatibility point of view there are concerns with the
impact of parking, noise, lighting and aesthetics of the
stadium. However, these factors are related to special events
which may occur sporadically throughout the year and not on a
day to day basis. The visual impact of the permanent stadium
(elevation of 22' ) will be mitigated via perimeter buffering.
Aesthetic concerns are noted with the introduction of temporary
bleachers during the Virginia Slims Tournament. These temporary
bleachers will have elevations of 36' and will be placed 15'
from the property line. Additional vertical elements should be
provided west of the bleachers and a color scheme which would
soften the visual impact should be selected.

FROM: DAVID J. KOVACS, DIRECTOR
DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING AND ZONING
SUBJECT: MEETING OF OCTOBER 27, 1992
APPROVAL OF THE PARKING PROGRAM FOR THE VIRGINIA SLIMS
TENNIS TOURNAMENT
ACTION REQUESTED OF THE COMMISSION:
The action requested of the City Commission is that of
approval of the proposed parking program for the Virginia
Slims Tennis Tournament.
The requirement for this plan is two-fold. First having
such a plan is a requirement of the contract between the
City and Liddum International. Second, it is in
fulfillment of a condition of the Municipal Tennis Stadium
land use approval.
BACKGROUND:
Attached is a copy of the parking program which will be followed
in accommodating the attendees of the Virginia Slims Tennis
Tournament in March, 1993.
The parking program was developed through a consensus building
exercise involving Liddum International and those municipal
functions which are involved with, and responsible for, parking,
traffic, and compliance with terms of the contract between
Liddum International and the City.
The program was then presented at the combined meeting of the
DDA, CRA, MA, and Chamber of Commerce. It was also presented
at a meeting of the Delray Merchants Association ( DMA) .
Thereafter, it was placed on a Planning and Zoning Board agenda
for further evaluation, input, and action.
PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD CONSIDERATION:
The Planning and Zoning Board formally reviewed this item at its
meeting of October 19, 1992, and has forwarded it with a
recommendation of approval.

PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD MEMORANDUM STAFF REPORT
MEETING OF: OCTOBER 19, 1992
AGENDA ITEM: V.A.
/' /'
ITEM BEFORE THE BOAR~:
The item before the Board is that of the PARKING PROGRAM for
the Virginia Slims Tennis Tournament.
BACKGROUND:
A conditional use for the development of a tennis stadium at the
City municipal tennis center was recommended for approval by the
Planning and Zoning Board on August 20, 1992. This recommended
approval was subject to the provision of an acceptable parking
program for stadium events. In addition, the agreement with the
Virginia Slims Tennis Tournament required that the City provide
3,000 parking spaces.
The parking program is attached.
ANALYSIS:
Thfs parking program has been developed by City staff with the input
of the Tournament sponsors. There is a requirement for the provision
of 750 reserved parking spaces within walking distance to the
stadium. The parking program shows the location of over 800
reserved parking spaces. In addition, 2,250 parking spaces for
general admission spectators are to be provided. These are to be
provided in two remote parking facilities. These two remote
locations (Lake Ida Park and Congress Park) can accommodate over
2,400 spaces. These reserved and remote facilities satisfy the
Tournament agreement requirements for parking.
This parking program outlines the use of three private parking
facilities. These parking facilities include the Congress Park
remote parking site, Greater Mount Olive Missionary Baptist Church
and Cason Methodist Church. The City has received initial
permission to use these facilities for Tournament parking. Written
use agreements will be obtained following approval of this parking
program.
In addition, the parking program proposes to use two County
properties. These County properties are the Lake Ida Park remote
parking site and the shopping center site at SW 1 Street/SW 1
Avenue. Initial discussions with the County indicate that these
will be available for Tournament parking use.
l/.R.
.,
.
This parking program, as proposed for this Tournament, can be
adjusted as appropriate for other uses of the stadium.
REVIEW BY OTHERS:
This Tournament parking program was presented to a joint DDA, CRA,
AAA, and Chamber of Commerce meetJng on Monday, October 5, 1992.
This group was receptive to the parking program.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
By motion, accept and recommend approval to the City Commission for
the Tournament Parking Program as meeting the requirements of the
conditional use for stadium events.

VIRGINIA SLIMS TENNIS TOURNAMENT
- PARKING PROGRAM -
/' CITY OF DELRAY BEACH, FLORIDA
"r'
I N T ROD U C T ION
The Virginia Slims of Florida is an annual tennis tournament
held the end of February and the beginning of March for a total
of 10 days. Tickets are being sold for seven days of the
Tournament, March 1-7, 1993. This parking program addresses
operations only for these seven days. Tournament play is held
throughout this period during the afternoon and evening hours
with tickets for each session being issued separately.
Attendance at these sessions varies during the week depending on
the specific matches taking place, but generally full capacity
is achieved during evening and weekend play.
The City of Delray Beach has signed a contract with the
organizers of this Tournament in which the city has agreed to
expand the existing Tennis Center at the corner of West Atlantic
and NW 1 Avenues to include a tournament configuration. As part
of this contract, the City is responsible for identi fying the
RESERVED parking areas for the players, officials, media,
volunteers, boxholders and GENERAL parking areas for general
admission ticket holders such that all patrons of the Tournament
can access the site in a reasonable manner.
The conditions of the contract require that 750 reserved spaces
be provided within walking distance (1,500 feet) of the
facility. General purpose parking spaces can be handled either
through local parking facilities or through the use of satellite
facilities with shuttles carrying people to and from the
Tournament site.
Tournament match play occurs with both day and night
competition.

This report outlines the requirements of the parking program as
agreed by the City, and the means by which this program will
operate.
The first section of this program report examines the reserved
parking supply. This section identifies the required 750
reserved parking spaces. The specific ~roup to be assign~d to
each reserved facility is identified. Information is included
concerning the characteristics of eac!1 facility. A total of
814+ reserved parking spaces are identified in the report. This
section ends with a discussion of where City Hall employees are
to park during the event.
The next section of the program report identifies parking areas
for general admission spectators. The City is required to
identify 2250 such spaces. This section presents information
for two satellite parking facilities and includes the
transportation needs for people shuttling back and forth to
these remote sites. This section includes a summary of the
downtown parking which will be available as an alternative to
the remote parking areas.
The final section deals with the parking and traffic operations
aspects of the Tournament parking program. This section covers
items identified by City Departments and the Tournament sponsors
during development of this program. These concerns are
summarized and recommended actions outlined.
The day and the evening operation of the event will lead to the
parking spaces turning over between these sessions. This leads
to a potential for many vehicles to be leaving the tournament
parking areas while others arrive and attempt to find a parking
space before the matches begin. Information provided by the
Tournament sponsors indicate that approximately fifteen percent
of the spectators attend both day and night sessions, some of
who remain at the Tournament site. This reduces this vehicle
turnover at the parking areas; however, the magnitude of parking
activities dictate that a formal parking program be provided.

RESERVED PARKING
Reserved parking spaces are needed for five groups of people.
~ These groups are VIP's, Tournament staff, the media, Tournament
----
volunteers and the boxholders. The parking agreement between
the city and Tournament sponsors call for a total of 750
reserved parking spaces. The use of these spaces has been
broken down as follows:
PARKING SPACES RESERVED FOR
75 VIP Parking
50 Tournament Staff
60 Media
65 Volunteers
500 Boxholders
750 TOTAL
These spaces are all required to be within walking distance
(1500 feet) of the Tournament site. Parking facilities are
proposed for each of these specific groups. The facility
locations are shown on the Reserved Parking Area figure. Site
sketches have been prepared for all parking areas where grass
parking is proposed. Sketches for those parking areas not
provided in this section are included at the end of the report.
o TOTAL RESERVED PARKING SPACES REQUIRED 750
o TOTAL RESERVED PARKING SPACES PROVIDED 806+
VIP'S SPACES REQUIRED 75
PROVIDED 98
This group includes the players, coaches, sponsors and other
dignitaries. This group also includes those persons purchasing
tickets for the handicap seats. Due to the nature of those
using this parking, it is to be the closest to the Tournament
site. These people will be directed to the parking areas by way
of pre-event notification from the sponsor. Personnel will be
required at the entrance to each of these VIP parking lots to
control vehicle entry.
VIP parking is proposed to be located in two lots. The first is
the parking lot adjacent to the tennis center (lot no. 1 on the
Reserved Parking Areas figure) on West Atlantic Avenue. This
lot will have 72 total spaces; however, 20 spaces are required
for television transmission equipment and vehicles. The
remaining 52 spaces will be reserved for VIP use only.

be reserved for both VIP's and handicapped seat ticket holders~
Handicap access to this lot will be via a pass issued with the
purchase of each handicap seat and not by way of a state issued
handicap parking permit.
/" /"
TOURNAMENT STAFF SPACES REQUIRED 50
PROVIDED 52+
This group includes employees of the sponsor and Tournament.
These people usually park for the entire day. There is a need
for providing 50 parking spaces for this group.
The staff parking is proposed for the County shopping center
property (lot no. 5) at the corner of SW 1 Avenue and SW 1
Street. This property currently has 52 paved parking spaces and
will likely have additional unpaved spaces by the Tournament
dates. All these spaces will be reserved for the Tournament
staff.
The Tournament staff will be directed to this parking area by
way of advanced notification to be provided by the sponsor. A
parking person may be required at the entrance to this facility
to control vehicle entry to only those authorized; however, the
person may not be required for the entire day.
MEDIA SPACES REQUIRED 60
PROVIDED 65
This group consists of those personnel involved with the media
coverage for the Tournament. These people arrive before the
matches begin and usually remain until after play is complete
for the day. The media is proposed to use one of two parking
lots. The media personnel will be directed to their parking
areas via advanced assignment to a particular lot. Parking
personnel may be required to control access to these lots prior
to the event; but, due to the all day parking characteristics of
this group, they may not be needed throughout the event.
The first area is the Cason Cottage parking lot (lot no. 4).
This lot is to be completed in December, 1992. This lot will
contain 41 car parking spaces and 2 bus spaces. Converting the
bus parking to 4 regular spaces and keeping the nine front
spaces in reserve for use by Cason Cottage, allows the media to
use 36 total spaces in this lot.
The second media parking area is to be the Bankers Row parking
lot (map no. 6). The CRA has assured the City (letter from
Chris Brown, Executive Director, to City Manager dated September
October 19, 1992 DRAFT PAGE 5
.
18, 1992) that this lot will be available by the end of
February, 1993 and will therefore be available for Tournament
use. There will be 29 spaces in this lot. All of these will be
reserved for the media.
VOLUNTEERS SPACES REQUIRED 65
../ ../ PROVIDED 65
Tournament volunteers act as ushers, player service personnel,
and other voluntary jobs related to the operations of the
Tournament. These people will stay for varying amounts of time.
Mount Olive Baptist Church (lot no. 8) is located approximately
three blocks west of the Tournament site. This facility
contains 121 paved parking spaces of which 65 will be needed.
Some of these spaces are in a fenced lot. No site lighting is
provided. Pedestrian access to and from the Stadium would be
south on NW 4 Avenue to West Atlantic Avenue, then east.
Coordination for the use of this parking with the Church will
be required.
BOXHOLDERS SPACES REQUIRED 500
PROVIDED 526+
The boxholders spaces are the largest part of the reserved
parking needed for the Tournament. These spaces will likely
turn over for each session. Boxholders will be informed in
advance of the Tournament dates of the locations of their
parking areas and the route to them. The boxholder lots will be
filled one at a time. This route will be via West Atlantic
Avenue to NW 5 Avenue, north to NW 2 Street, and then east. A
volunteer should be stationed at the intersection of West
Atlantic Avenue and West 5 Avenue to guide these boxholders
north. parking personnel will be required to direct vehicles and
control entry into the boxholder parking lots. The boxholders
are proposed to be placed in one of two parking facilities with
an additional overflow area available.
The first boxholder parking area to be filled is the City Hall
parking lot (map no. 3). This lot contains 224 paved spaces of
which 184 will be available for Tournament use during the week.
Forty spaces are being held for use by City Hall customers and
City vehicles. The entire 224 will be available for the weekend
sessions. This lot will be filled via the driveways off NW 2
Street.
The next parking area for boxholders is at Cason Methodist
Church ( lot no. 7). This area can accommodate parking for 385
vehicles. The parking will be accessed from a driveway just to
the west of NW 1 Avenue. There are 146 paved spaces at this
site. Of these, 43 will be held for the use by the Church. The
October 19, 1992 DRAFT PAGE 6
.
.
remaining 103 paved and all grass spaces will be reserved for
boxholder use. Coordination with the Church for the use of this
property will be needed.
The people parking at Cason Methodist church will walk to the
Tournament site by way of NW 1 Avenue. Two physical ~ ...--
improvements are needed to this route to facilitate this
pedestrian travel. The first is the provision of a sidewalk
along the west side of the street from NW 2 Street north past NW
3 Street. The second is the upgrading of street lighting along
NW 1 Avenue north of NW 3 Street. The City is responsible for
making both of these improvements.
These two sites (City Hall and Cason Methodist Church)
accommodate all required boxholder parking.
OVERFLOW
Should an overflow demand occur for Reserved parking spaces,
there is an area in the City Attorney Block which has been
identified as reserved overflow parking. This area is located
inside the fence adjacent to NW 1 Avenue. This area can
accommodate c:t least 30 vehicles and will only be used if
needed.
CITY HALL EMPLOYEES'
The use of a majority of the City Hall parking lot for reserved
Tournament parking requires that City Hall employees park
off-site for the week of March 1-7, 1993. It is proposed that
this temporary employee parking occur within the City Attorney
block. The area proposed for use lies within the perimeter
fencing and north of the paved area. This area will accommodate
110 unpaved spaces. Based on employee vehicle counts taken at
Ci ty Hall, this should be adequate. Surface stabilization is
needed and has been estimated to cost $xxxx - $xxxx by the
Assistant City Engineer.

GENERAL PAR KIN G
General admission ticket holder parking will be provided for
2,250 vehicles. This comprises the remainder of the required
3,000 total parking spaces. This parking can be acCommodated i~'
a number of ways. Based on discussions by the coordinating
commi t tee the following two primary remote parking areas have
been identified. In addition, downtown parking will act as an
alternative for those who are aware of the downtown parking
areas. Both general parking areas will require use of a shuttle
system for transporting people to and from the Tournament site.
The following scenario for providing general parking is
recommended. All required general parking (2,250 spaces) will
be provided at remote locations operated by the Tournament
sponsor. The primary remote parking facility will be Lake Ida
Park which will be prepared for the parking of 1,400+ vehicles.
At such time as this lot nears capacity (1,000 - 1,200 parked
cars) a decision will be made relative to opening the second
remote parking facility. The second facility will be at the
Congress Park development. Congress Park will be prepared for
1,000+ spaces. This scenario allows flexibility in
accommodating all of the required general parking and also
optimizes the use of parking resources. Each of these two
remote parking facilities are discussed below.
LAKE IDA PARI< 1400+ SPACES
This is a County park located north of Lake Ida Road east of the
Interstate. The park is bounded by the Interstate to the west
and Lake Ida to the north and east and Lake Ida Road to the
south. The park can accommodate 1290+ grass parking spaces
along with existing paved spaces for a total of over 1400.
Coordination for the use of this Park for parking purposes would
be with Palm Beach County.
This facility has one driveway onto Lake Ida Road which provides
control of access. Site security would be needed throughout the
operation of this parking area. The driveway onto Lake Ida Road
would require police traffic control. Currently, no lighting
exists in these parking areas. It should be provided by the
City for both visibility and security needs.
Stabilization of the grass parking areas will not be necessary.
Mowing may be needed depending on the condition of the ground
cover. The City Parks Department has estimated that one day
would be needed to perform this mowing activity if necessary.
Spectators using this site would be transported to and from the
Tournament site by shuttle bus. The rear parking area could be

serviced by one shuttle stop. This stop location is adjacent to
the rest room facility and on a paved surface large enough to
hold the 2-6 shuttles which will be loading or unloading at one
time. This area also provides a turn around for the shuttles
and is within 1,000 feet of all of the rear parking spaces. The
following table indicates the resulting time required to move
approximately 3400 people from this parking area based on

========================================================
The number of shuttles used will be based on what is considered
an acceptable service time. Routing for the Lake Ida Park
shuttles will be via Lake Ida Road, NW 10 Avenue, NW 2 Street
and NW 1 Avenue going to the stadium. The return route will be
by way of westbound West Atlantic Avenue. The routing of
shuttles may be altered during the Tournament based on actual
traffic conditions. Shuttles are the responsibility of the
Tournament sponsor.
CONGRESS PARKI CONGRESS PARK SOUTH 1000 SPACES
This is a private development located on the west side of
congress Avenue between Atlantic Avenue and SW 10 Street. This
property is bounded by Congress Avenue, the Municipal Golf
Course and a Shopping Center. It is only partially developed,
but, the road system has been constructed and much of the site
grading has been done. A sketch of the development is attached.
Coordination for use of this property will be with the owner.
This site fronts on Congress Avenue and has three driveways.
Access for Tournament parking would be via one of these
driveways. The rest of the development could be isolated from
the Tournament parking areas with barricades. The center drive
would be used for Tournament parking simplifying traffic
control, security and routing to the parking areas. Currently,
no lighting exists in these parking areas. It should be
provided for both visibility and security needs.
Areas within this development will need to be reserved for use
of the businesses on site. Also, some locations are not easily
converted into parking areas. The recommended general parking
scenario calls for the provision of 1,000 spaces at the site.
These spaces are being recommended to be placed in areas F, M
and O. These three areas can accommodate the necessary number

of cars, are located adjacent to one another and are accessed
via the same roadway. Only mowing will be needed as surface
preparation for the two grass areas (M and 0).
spectators using this parking area will be transported to and
from the Tournament site via a shuttJe bus system. The shuttle /"
stop will be on the road near area~. Providing shuttle service
for this facility is the responsibility of the Tournament
sponsors. The following table indicates service times to move
approximately 2,550 people from or to this remote parking area
based on varying numbers of busses used.

The determination of total number of shuttles used will depend
on what is an acceptable service time. Routing recommended for
the Congress Park shuttles to the stadium will be via Congress
Avenue, West Atlantic Avenue, NW 5 Avenue, NW 2 Street and NW 1
Avenue. The return trip to Congress Park will be by way of West
Atlantic Avenue and Congress Avenue. Actual shuttle routes may
be altered based on traffic conditions during the Tournament.

PAR KIN G & T R A F FIe OPE RAT ION S
Coordination for the operations of this parking program will be
necessary between all parties involved. The items discussed in
this section ar~'thosethat have been raised during coordination
efforts. This section attempts to describe the concerns raised
and offer recommended actions.
PARKING FACILITY COORDINATION
Some of the parking areas identified earlier in this report are
not under the direct control of the City or Tournament sponsors.
Written agreements will be needed prior to their use for
designated parking. The City is responsible, by agreement, to
provide all required parking (3,000 spaces) . To provide a
single point of contact for these coordinating actions, it is
proposed that all actions relative to the obtaining of
permission to use non-City properties be coordinated through the
City Manager's office with the Tournament sponsors actually
negotiating these agreements.
The following properties require coordination actions.
0 Cason Methodist Church - To be used for reserved
boxholder parking. In addition to obtaining permission for
use, information relative to the timing of site
construction at the Church should be obtained to determine
if it will impact parking operations. Contact with the
Church trustees has been made by City staff.
0 Lake Ida Park - County park des igna ted as a possible
general parking area. Contact with Palm Beach County has
been made by the City Manager and City staff.
0 Congress Parkl Congress Park South - One of the proposed
remote parking facilities. Initial contact with the owner
was made on September 30, 1992 by City staff.
0 County shopping center property - To be used for
reserved Tournament staff parking. Contact with Palm Beach
County has been made by both the CRA and City Manager.
0 Mount Olive Baptist Church - One of the possible
locations for Tournament staff parking.
The City should require that a written letter of authorization
be provided by each of the above property owners prior to use
for Tournament parking.

.
TRAFFIC SIGNING FOR PARKING AREA(S)
People attending the Tournament will arrive from all directions;
however, it is likely that a majority will use 1-95. Tournament
traffic will be directed to exit the Interstate at West Atlantic
/' Avenue. People using the reserved parking areas will be
directed east and all others will be directed west.
Advanced signing on the Interstate will be valuable in directing
these motorists to the desired exit. It is recommended that the
City obtain permission to place temporary directional signs on
the Interstate. These signs will inform drivers that parking
for the Tournament should be access via West Atlantic Avenue.
These signs should be placed for both north and southbound
traffic (ie: north of the Woolbright Boulevard exit and south of
the Linton Boulevard exit). These signs would most likely be of
the variable message type displaying the message "TENNIS
TOURNAMENT TRAFFIC/USE ATLANTIC AVENUE" . Permits for these
signs must be obtained from FDOT and will be facilitated by the
City. Coordination of delivery and payment for these signs will
be by the City.
Once off the Interstate, drivers will be directed by way of
traffic directional signs. These signs will be placed in
advance of each signalized intersection and will indicate the
direction Tournament spectators should travel (left, right, or
straight). Sign legends. will state "TOURNAMENT PARKING" with a
directional arrow. Reserved (boxholder) parking direct:ional
signs will also be provided. The message on these will be
"BOXHOLDER PARKING" with a directional arrow. All
responsibility for these signs lies with the City.
Additional parking directional signs will be needed for those
travelling into the downtown area. These signs will be similar
to those described above and will be placed along West Atlantic
Avenue prior to each signalized intersection from West 10 Avenue
to Swinton Avenue and south to SE 1 Street. Permitting for
these signs and fabrication, placement and removal will be by
the City.
Signing for Tournament parking will be needed on other roads
entering the City. The placement of these sings will be done by
the City.
Advanced notification of the location of parking areas and
preferred routes should be provided by the Tou~nament sponsors
prior to the event. This should include such items as
Interstate exit number, Turnpike exit, major roadways in the
City and suggested routes to the parking areas.
October 19, 1992 DRAFT PAGE 12
.
TRAFFIC CONTROL
The movement of all of the spectators and support personnel for
the Tournament will require special police control of traffic at
certain locations. These locations include the entrance to the
remote parking areas (Lake Ida Park and Congress Park) . This
police "traffic control will facilitates the smooth flow of .,r'
vehicles into and out of the facility.
Near the Tournament site, the likely concentrations of vehicle
and pedestrian traffic will necessitate direct police traffic
control at the following intersections.
- Swinton Avenue at Atlantic Avenue
- North 1st Street at Swinton Avenue
- West Atlantic Avenue at West l~ Avenue
- West Atlantic Avenue at 1-95
At the signalized intersections, the City will coordinate with
the County to have police buttons installed in the signal
controller cabinets to allow the officers to control traffic
movements by way of the traffic signal.
At least two additional police for traffic and crowd control
will be required on NW 1 Avenue to control the shuttle stop
area.
SHUTTLE STOP - NW 1 Avenue
The shuttles which transport spectators to and from the stadium
will use NW 1 Avenue as the loading and unloading area. The
street has an extra lane along the west side currently used for
turn lanes. This area will function as a shuttle bay in which
the shuttles can stop while people load or unload. This area
extends north from the Tennis Center driveway and can
accommodate 4-6 shuttles. If this area down not exist at the
time of the Tournament, the southbound travel lane could be
blocked to vehicular traffic except for the shuttles. Using
this allows the people to access the sidewalk along NW 1 Avenue
to and from the Tournament main gate.
INCIDENT MANAGEMENT
The movement of thousands of vehicles for each session will
create congestion. Should an accident occur, further delays to
traffic flows will occur. It may be beneficial for there to be
a towing service on stand-by during times near the start and end
of each Tournament session. This towing service, in
coordination with the Police Department can assure that
accidents are cleared from the travelways as quickly as
possible.
October 19, 1992 DRAFT PAGE 13
'. "'I
CBD TRAFFIC ROUTING
Traffic impacts on the Central Business District are recommended
to be addressed with the following actions. First, parking
directional signs will be used to guide drivers to SE 1 street
and then east. Other parking signs will inform motorists of the
public lots downtown. To facilitate this movement of traffic ,/'.
the eastbound lane of East Atlantic Avenue from Swinton Avenue
to East 5th Avenue will be closed. This closure also provides a
clear roadway for use by a downtown trolley. Barricades and
traffic control for these items will be the responsibility of
the city and downtown agencies.
DOWNTOWN TROLLEY
Tournament spectators may interact with the downtown through the
potential use of a downtown trolley. Two separate types of
trolleys could operate. The first would run along East Atlantic
Avenue from Tournament site to Federal Highway. This shuttle
trolley would serve to transport people between the downtown
parking areas and the Tournament site. The second trolley would
serve the expanded CBD area. This trolley could serve
restaurants f rom the Tournament site to AlA. The restaurant
trolley stops could be located at those restaurants sponsoring
the trolley. The CRA has indicated support for downtown trolley
activities in a letter from Chris Brown, Executive Director,
dated September 18, 1992. The concept of available
transportation to and from both parking opportunities and
businesses downtown would encourage Tournament spectators to
interact with downtown while not at the Tournament. Trolley
operations should be frequent enough to be convenient (maximum
15 minute headway) and remain affordable (ideally free) to
obtain highest utilization.
TRAFFIC OPERATIONS - West Atlantic Avenue
The traffic study prepared by the Consultant assessing the
Tournament traffic impacts, indicated that there is a need for
three travel lanes both east and west on Atlantic Avenue (SR
806) from Swinton Avenue to 1-95. To accomplish this, parking
will be restricted through the week of the tournament. The City
will be responsible for obtaining the necessary permission for
this from the FOOT. This parking restriction will also require
the installation of temporary 'NO PARKING' signs and specific
police enforcement to include the towing of illegally parked
vehicles both of which will be handled by the City.

PARKING OPERATIONS - Downtown Time Limits
Currently many parking areas in downtown are regulated with
parking time limits. It is recommended that for the week of the
Tournament, these parking limits not be enforced, and, these
/- parking time lJmit signs be covered. To allow some turnover of
downtown spaces during the Tournament, those on East Atlantic
Avenue will remain with 2 hour time limits.

MEMORANDUM
Date: October 23, 1992
To: City Commission
From: Jeffrey S. Kurtz, City Attorney
Subject: Delta Petroleum, et al. v. City of Delray Beach
Our File #05-92.008
This case involves Delta Petroleum's challenge to the City's
denial of a site plan that would allow them to expand the Shell
gas station on the corner of Atlantic Avenue and Military
Trail.
The proposed settlement (copy attached) would ensure that the
expanded gas station would not open until the intersection
improvements are completed. This should reduce the
Commission's concerns about traffic that were voiced at the
time the site plan was denied. While there will be ongoing
work on Atlantic Avenue from Jog Road to Congress Avenue
throughout 1993, the Planning Director feels that the gas
station expansion will not contribute significantly to the
traffic problems caused by the Atlantic Avenue construction
work.
The City Attorney's Office and Planning Director are
recommending approval of this settlement agreement which by its
acceptance would approve the previously denied site plan
modification. The Fourth District Court of Appeal in Land
Resources Investment Co. I et al. v. City of Delray Beach
reversed its previous holdings and ruled that appeals of site
plan denials are to be based on the record produced at the
Commission hearings and not based on new evidence brought
before the Circuit Court. It is our feeling that the record
developed before the Commission on this matter strongly favors
Delta Petroleum and Shell Oil.
Should you have any questions concerning this matter, please do
not hesitate to contact our office.

'1'''::;E~ING AND ZONING
FROM: PAUL DORLING, PLANNER II
SUBJECT: MEETING OF JANUARY 14, 1992
CONDITIONAL USE APPROVAL/MOBIL TO SHELL CONVERSION
ACTION REQUESTED OF THE COMMISSION:
The action requested of the City Commission is that of
approval of a major modification to an existing Conditional
Use.
The project is the conversion of an existing Mobil Gasoline
Station to a Shell Gasoline/Mini-mart Facility with a car
wash. It is located in the southwest corner of Atlantic
Avenue and Military Trail.
BACKGROUND:
.
This property was recently annexed into the City. There is an
existing use of a gasoline and repair station on the site. The
development proposal involves construction of a new facility with
the removal of the existing structures. The new facility will
have additional pumps and a car wash along with a mini-mart.
The identical major modification request was before the Planning
and zoning Board on March 18, 1991. The Planning and Zoning
Board recommended approval of the Conditional Use Request on a
7-0 vote.
On March 26, 1991 the development proposal was before the City
Commission. Public testimony was taken and the following
concerns were raised:
- Inadequate stacking for proposed car wash;
Anticipated traffic volumes with and without the car
- wash;
- Overall traffic generation concerns;
- Water use of car wash.

The City Commission remanded the petition back to the Planning
and Zoning Board for further consideration and for review by the
City's Traffic Engineer. On April 15, 1991 the Planning and
Zoning Board reviewed a revised sketch plan submittal which
incorporated a redesign of the internal circulation system and
addressed the other public concerns. The Board considered the
on-site circulation aspects and ~ecommended incorporation of the
changes on a 6-0 vote.
The Conditional Use request and accompanying revised sketch plan
was forwarded to the City Commission's meeting of April 23, 1991-
After a lengthy discussion the City Commission denied the
Conditional Use request on a 3-2 vote based on a consensus that
six ( 6 ) pumps, a car wash, and a convenience store were too
intense for the site. The applicant has resubmitted the request
for reconsideration.
PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD CONSIDERATION:
The Planning and Zoning Board formally reviewed this item at
regular meeting of December 16, 1991- The applicant addressed
concerns with respect to traffic on adjacent roadways and the
internal circulation. Several residents spoke in opposition and
a petition with 46 names opposing the request was received.
After taking public testimony the Board recommended approval of
the Major Conditional Use modifications on a 6-1 vote (Kellerman
dissenting) .
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
.
By motion, approve the Major Conditional Use modification as
depicted in the modified sketch plan, based upon the findings and
recommendations as previously set forth by the Planning and
Zoning Board.

FROM:
PAUL DORLING, PLANNER II
DATE: DECEMBER 9, 1991 -..--
RE: MAJOR CONDITIONAL USE MODIFICATION FOR GASOLINE
STATION AT THE SOUTHEAST CORNER OF ATLANTIC AVENUE
AND MILITARY TRAIL
ITEM BEFORE THE BOARD:
The item before the Board is that of making a recommendation on
a major modification to a Conditional Use to establish a
gasoline station with an accessory convenience store and car
wash facility.
The property is located at the southeast corner of Atlantic
Avenue and Military Trail.
Pursuant to Section 2.4.5(E)(7), if the Conditional Use request
is considered a major modification final action will rest with
the City Commission after a recommendation from the Planning and
Zoning Board. Upon Approval of the Conditional Use request the
Site Plan approval action will rest with the SPRAB (Site Plan
Review and Appearance Board).
BACKGROUND:
For full background information, refer to the attached Staff
Report for this item, prepared for the Planning and Zoning Board
meeting of March 18, 1991.
The identical major modification request was before the Planning
and Zoning Board on March 18, 1991. The Planning and Zoning
Board recommended approval of the Conditional Use request on a
7-0 vote.
On March 26, 1991 the development proposal was before the City
Commission. Public testimony was taken and the following
concerns were raised:
- Inadequate stacking for proposed car wash
- Anticipated traffic volumes with and without the car
wash
- Overall traffic generation concerns

Page 2
The City Commission remanded the petition back to the Planning
and Zoning Board for further consideration and for review by the
City's Traffic Engineer. pn April 15, 1991 the Planning and
zoning Board reviewed a revised sketch plan submittal which
incorporated a redesign of the internal circulation system and
addressed the other public concerns (see attached April 11, 1991
memorandum) . The Board considered the on-site circulation
aspects and recommended incorporation of the changes on a 6-0
vote.
The Conditional Use request and accompanying revised sketch plan
was forwarded to the City Commission's meeting of April 23,
1991. After a lengthy discussion the City Commission denied the
Conditional Use Request on a 3-2 vote based on a consensus that
six (6) pumps, a car wash, and a convenience store were too
intense for the site. The applicant has resubmitted the request
for reconsideration.
ASSESSMENT:
The development proposal is identical to the previous submittal
which was denied by City Commission. The applicant is prepared
to provide information and address the previously identified
concerns with respect to traffic on adjacent roadways and
internal circulation.
During the public hearing, citizens have contended that the
proposed development is too intense given current traffic
conditions, for this location. Attached for your reference is
information on the intensities of the last six gasoline stations
approved by the City. While this proposal does represent the
highest increase in intensity over existing conditions, the
final intensity is similar to other approvals.
The project is of similar intensity as previously approved sites
and represents improvements over existing conditions through the
relocation and reduction of curb cuts. It appears that there is
no compelling reasons to reverse the previous recommendations
tendered by the Board.
ALTERNATIVES ACTIONS:
A. Continue with direction.
B. Recommend approval of the request based upon positive
findings with respect to Chapter 3 (Performance Standards)
of the Land Development Regulations, policies of the
Comprehensive Plan, and Section 2.4.5(E)(5) and subject to
conditions.

C. Recommend denial based on failure to make a positive
finding pursuant to Section 2.4.5(E)(5) that the

RECOMMENDATION:
Recommend approval of this Major Modification to a Conditional
Use based upon positive findings with respect to Chapter 3
(Performance Standards) of the Land Development Regulations,
policies of the Comprehensive Plan, and Section 2.4.5(E)(5) and
subject to the following conditions:
1. Site development is to occur in general compliance with the

LAKE IDA 11TH STREET PARCEL
DATE: OCTOBER 23, 1992
This item is before you to authorize staff to meet with County
representatives to discuss the terms of the agreement which would
convey the Lake Ida 11th Street parcel to the City for park purposes.
At their October 6th meeting, the Board of County Commissioners
conceptually approved the transfer of the 2.63 acre Lake Ida 11th
Street parcel to the City. This action also authorized the County's
Property and Real Estate Management Department to prepare an
instrument of conveyance, which in this case is likely to be a
long-term lease agreement.
Based on the County Commission's conceptual approval, a meeting will
be scheduled to discuss the terms of the agreement.

Dear Mr. Hardin:
On October 6, 1992, the Board of County Commissioners, under Agenda
Item 4E-2 (attached) ; conceptually approved the transfer of the
2.63 acre Lake Ida 11th street parcel to the City of Delray Beach

long-term lease agreement.
Mr. Ross Hering, Director of PREM, will be responsible for the
preparation and submittal of the agreement to the Board of County
Commissioners for their action. I have notified Mr. Hering of the
Board of County Commissioner's conceptual approval and requested

the County staff in the near future to discuss the terms of the
agreement.
I look forward to meeting with you again to accomplish this

I. EXECUTIVE BRIEF
A. Motion and Title: Staff recommends conceptual approval to
transfer 2.63 acres of Lake Ida Park (NW 11th street parcel)
to the city of Delray Beach to be operated as part of the
City's park system.
B. Summary: The City of Delray has requested that the Board of
County Commissioners consider the transfer of a portion of
Lake Ida Park to be operated as a city neighborhood Park.
Based on the size, location and function of this park, plus
the fact that it was recently annexed, it is staff's opinion
that the property would be more appropriately operated as
a City Park. District 7 WGC
C. Background and policy Issues: On June 25, 1992 the Parks and
Recreation Department met with the city Manager and Park's
Director for the City of Delray to discuss matters of mutual
concern regarding the various areas of Lake Ida Park. As
a result of this meeting, the city submitted the attached
request to transfer the 11th street parcel of Lake Ida Park
to the City. This parcel is a 2.63 acre lake front property
with one restroom, playground area and a small"boat launch
area. The park clearly functions as a neighborhood park
facility, drawing the vast majority of its users from the
immediate community. Based on its size, function, location
and the fact that it was recently annexed by the City, it
is staff's opinion that the property would be more
appropriate operated as a City neighborhood park.
This matter has been discussed with PREM who advised that
they would determine the proper legal instrument for
conveyance upon conceptual approval by the Board.
Regardless of the instrument used, it is staff's intent that
y the property be restricted to park and recreational uses
with access guaranteed to all residents of Palm Beach county
on a non-discriminatory basis.

.
Backqround and Policy Issues: - continued-
It should be noted that the transfer of the property will
result in a reduction of annual operating costs of five to six
thousand dollars and eliminate the need for any future capital
expenditures for park improvements. In addition, this park does
not have any revenue generating facilities and as such will not
affect projected revenues.
In regards to the Comprehensive Plan, the transfer of this
property will not have a significant affect on the level of service
or the ability of this Department to achieve its established goals.
While there is no current appraisal for this property, it is prime
waterfront land and would certainly have a minimum value of
$200,000.00.

engineering services during construction and resident observation for improvements to the
City's water treatment plant. The design has been completed. and construction is
approximately 70 percent complete. In December 1992 the plant is scheduled for startup.
Engineering services during startup were delineated as an additional service and therefore
were not included in the scope and fee of Service Authorization NO.5. However, there
was provision made for up to $50,000 of additional services in the original authorization.
To date, $39,550 of that original allocation has been authorized under Amendments No. 1
and 2.
In order that the operational transition from the City's current sodium aluminate treatment
process to lime softening proceed as smoothly as possible, without upset to the treatment
train or interruption of service to customers, the City has asked CH2M HILL to provide
services as described below during the startup of key plant processes.
II. Scope of Services
The CONSULTANT will provide the following engineering services to the City during
plant startup:

SUBJECT: AGENDA ITEM II 9 K - MEETING OF OCTOBER 27, 1992
APPOINTMENT OF ALTERNATE MEMBER TO CODE ENFORCEMENT BOARD
DATE: OCTOBER 23, 1992
On July 21, 1992, the City Commission responded to a request for
direction regarding the non-attendance of alternate members at Code
Enforcement Board meetings. The Commission determined that the three
existing alternates (John Goodman, Catherine Newkirk and Fred Fetzer)
were to be removed and contacted to verify their ability to attend
meetings when needed. The City Commission would then either reappoint
two of these members or appoint new alternates. Ms. Newkirk did not
respond to the letter which was sent nor to telephone calls. Mr.
Fetzer indicated he would no longer be able to attend meetings. At the
October 13, 1992, regular meeting, Commissioner Andrews reappointed
John Goodman to serve as one of the alternate members. Commissioner
Randolph requested postponement of his appointment to the next regular
meeting.
Section 37.15 of the City's Code states: "Appointments to both regular
and alternate member positions shall be on the basis of experience or
interest in the fields of zoning and building control. The regular and
alternate membership of the Board shall, whenever possible, include an
architect, a business person, an engineer, a general contractor, a
subcontractor and a realtor." Also, each regular and alternate member
of the Code Enforcement Board must be a resident of the city.
The following persons have submitted their applications for your
consideration:
Richard Brautigan David Henninger
Rosalind Murray Joann Peart
Sid Soloway Anthony Veltri
Horace Waldman Stanley Watsky
Pursuant to Commission direction, a check for code violations and
property liens has been conducted. According to City records, none of
the applicants has any outstanding violations.
Based upon the rotation system, the appointment of a layperson to the
second alternate position will be made by Commissioner Randolph (Seat
t/4) .
Recommend appointment of a layperson to serve as the second alternate
member on the Code Enforcement Board for the term ending January 14,
1993.

SUBJECT: AGENDA ITEM * loA - MEETING OF OCTOBER 27. 1992
ORDINANCE NO. 53-92
DATE: OCTOBER 23, 1992
This is the second reading of an ordinance amending Ordinance No.
70-89 to provide that no dwelling unit used or developed on that
portion of the Fontaine Fox Historic Site which lies east of State
Road A-1-A shall contain more than 3,250 square feet of gross floor
area.
Ordinance No. 70-89 designated the Fontaine Fox House as an Historic
Site and placed it on the Register of Historic Places. The site
consists of three lots. The western lot is vacant and faces Andrews
Avenue. The center lot contains a historic single family dwelling and
three guest cottages and is located on the west side of AlA. An
eastern lot, also located east of AlA, is vacant. In June 1990, the
Historic Preservation Board (HPB) approved plans for a 2,400 square
foot dwelling to be constructed on the beach lot. Subsequently, the
property was sold and the new owner requested an amendment to
Ordinance No. 70-89 to allow an 850 square foot addition to the gross
floor area, using the footprint of the originally approved site plan.
On Oc tober 13, 1992, at first reading of the ordinance, Commissioner
Andrews requested information pertaining to property north of the Fox
House site. Attached is a memorandum in response to that request.
The HPB conducted a preliminary evaluation to determine the effect
the proposed amendment would have on the Historic Designation Report
and found that the amendment conformed, with the exception of floor
area, density and height. The HPB also concluded that the amendment
would not negatively effect the historic house to the west of AlA, or
the historic site as a whole. A public hearing was conducted on
September 16, 1992 at which several members of the public spoke in
opposition to the amendment. The Historic Preservation Board
recommended approval of the amendment by a 5-2 vote (Pat Healy-Golembe
and James Miller dissenting).
Recommend approval of Ordinance No. 53-92 on second and final
reading.

SUBJECT: MEETING OF OCTOBER 13, 1992
AMENDMENT TO ORDINANCE NO. 70-89
ACTION REQUESTED OF THE COMMISSION:
The action requested of the City Commission is to amend Section
2, Paragraph 2 of Ordinance No. 70-89.
BACKGROUND:
Ordinance 70-89, which is attached, designated the Fontaine Fox
Historic Site to the Local Register of Historic Places. The site
consists of 3 lots: the western lot faces Andrews Avenue and is
vacant; the center lot, located on the west side of AlA,
contains an historic single family dwelling and 3 guest
cottages; the eastern lot is located on the east side of AlA.
The street address for the Fontaine Fox Historic Site is 610 N.
Ocean Boulevard.
Section 2, paragraph (2 ) of the Ordinance states that "no
dwelling unit used or developed east of State Road A-I-A
( the eastern lot) shall contain more than 2400 square feet
of gross floor area".
June 18, 1990: The Historic Preservation Board approved plans
for a 2400 square foot dwelling to be constructed on the beach
lot by the owners, Joyce and Roderick Wilson. Before
construction commenced, the lot and approved plans were sold to
Mr. Salah Sawaya.
December 18, 1991: Mr. Sawaya obtained a COA to redesign the
exterior of the proposed residence while retaining the
previously approved footprint and the maximum 2400 square feet
of gross total floor area.
June of 1992,: David Martin, authorized agent for Salah Sawaya,
requested an amendment to Ordinance NO. 70-89 to allow an 850
square foot addition to the gross floor area, resulting in a
dwelling with a total of 3,250 gross square feet. The building's
footprint on the originally approved site plan will remain
'.

unchanged.
August 5, 1992: The HPB conducted a preliminary evaluation to
determine the effect the amendment would have on the Designation
Report, on which Ordinance 70-89 is based. The preliminary
evaluation revealed that the amendment conformed to the
Designation Report, with one exception, pursuant to Section
4.5.1(C) (3) (b) of the LDRs which pertains to floor area, density
and height. The HPB was also of the opinion that the amendment
would not negatively effect the historic house to the west of
A-I-A, or the historic site as a whole. The applicant was
advised to proceed with a Public Hearing. Pursuant to Section
2.4.2(B) (1) (b) a notice was sent to property owners within a
500' radius and was published in the Delray News on
September 5, 1992.
.
September 16, 1992: The HPB conducted a Public Hearing to gain
input regarding the proposed amendment. There were no comments
in favor of the amendment. Mr. John Washburn, contractor for
Mr. Jack Eichelberger, spoke against the amendment. Mr & Mrs
Eichelberger are constructing a residence on the second lot to
the nor~h of the subject property. A letter of opposition from
Mr. Eichelberger was read into the record, and is attached.
The Historic Preservation Board voted to recommend to the City
Commission that Ordinance No. 70-89 be amended. The vote was
5-2, Pat Healy-Golembe and James Miller dissenting..
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Amend Section 2, Paragraph 2 of Ordinance No. 70-89, to allow
a residence with a total of 3,250 gross square feet of floor
area to be constructed, within the approved footprint, on the
lot east of State Road A-I-A which is located within the locally

REI PROPOSEO ADDITIONAL VARIANCE REQUEST OF LOT I,
OCEAN APPLE ESTATES, FONTAINE FOX HISTORIC SITE
TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERNs
To allow anothe~ variance of the above captioned lot
ia ludicrous.
The undergigned attorney and hi. wife purchased the
property that lies two lots north of subject property in
the 1970's. We bought our property with absolute assurance
th4t the two pieces of property to the south of us were
unbuild~ble lota and therefore there would be no dwelling&
between our lond and the public beach.
Then to our com~lete surpri8e the southern most lot
WaS granted a variance to build a 2400 square feet house
~n the first lot north of the ~ublic 8@Qch on the Qaet. $ ide,
of Stat. Road A~lA.
We were never informed at any time ot any hearing or
proceeding concerning that 2400 square foot decision. We
heard recently that that decision involved some limiting of
houalng lot$ west of A-l-A in the Fontaine Fox Historic Site.
It should be noted besides the 2400 square foot grant
on Wthe non buildable lot- a variation from the side yard
set back requirements was al.o allowed to the effect of
eliminating the twelve foot set back requirements and in its
Dlace instituting construction ~llowance of a single family
detached dwelling within five feet of the south property line
~nd within five teet of the north property line.
As if that is not enough for the owners of Lot 1 to
receive on that day (October 29, 1989),they also obtained
another vari~nce--TO WIT I the waiver of the 80 foot right-
of-way requi~ement tor State Road A-l~^.

Page two Historic PreservAtion Board September l~, 1992
Now the Owne~8 of Lot 1 want more. They now want to
increase their 2400 square feet by over 33' or 850 square
feet. This would make a total of 3,250 square feet and more
important it would add the square footage to fOrm a ..cond
floor. This would make the dwelling a full residence inlteo~
of a "beAch house".
We are currently building a home at 701 N. Ocecn Boule-
vard which is a8 previously noted two lota north of Lot 1.
We have spent a lot of money designing our house specifically
believing th4t we had two unbuildable lote to the south. We
had our architect design plana to that eff~ct with certain
rooms facing south. Now not only hel the city of Delray allowed
a 2400 square foot ~welling but now are being asked to grant
~nother 850 square feet to build a second floor. It ia just
not fai~.
We could have really used a variance of five feet on
both north and south Bide yard set backs on our hou.. but we
figured that these zoning requir~ments were set in ~onc~ete
by the City of Delray.
Is the next request going to be a varian~e on the 'UR-
buildable" lot right next to us and to the north of Lot 11
In conclu.1on, we strongly oppose any variance as there
is no nece..ity and it wou14 be detrim~ntal to U8 in that 0
second floor or additional square footage ~ould defeat the
plana we mede in good faith.
~Q .ay that there 1e no necessity for 8 variance, we
have not really thoroughly checked into the trade-ofle on the
first three variances of October 29, 1989 but we know there
18 no trade-off or benefit to the city or the hi.tor1e district
to allow this new request.
-
We also question the reason tor a Historic District if
varienc.. oan be granted at any time. We would also point out
that any variance g~ented would open the door for a myriad of
additional variance requelte. These variances mu.t stop now.
I ~o wish to emph~8ize that 1 have received complete co-op-
eration and courteous treatment in a profe99iona1 way from
Pat Cayce, Delray Beach's Historical Preservation Planner.
Sincerely,

"
~ -.'
The purpose of designating the.- Fox.:.:.l!Q\lse i"~ 610.1.l{i.::,:.Ocean. .BouleV"'p1;d,~
to the Delray Beach Local Register of Historic Places' is ,to
preserve the architectural and cultural significance of one of the
city's most distinctive private residentia~ pceanfront estates,
which is popularly known as the "Ocean Apple E'State" (hereinafter
the "subject property"). A ,nomination for designation has been
filed and considered by the Board (See Exhibit A) and a public
hearing held pursuant to Chapter 174 of the city of Delray Beach
zoning Code.
II. LOCATION
The Subject Property is located at 610 N. Ocean Boulevard Delray
Beach. It is 2.5 acres more or less and is comprised of land on
the oceanward and landward sides of state Road A-1-A. The Subject
Property extends from the Atlantic Ocean to Andrews Boulevard. The
legal description of the subject Property is described in Exhibit
B.
III. HISTORICAL AND ARCHITECTURAL SIGNIFICANCE
The house is significant because of its architectural style, the
man who first owned the Property and the man who des igned the
improvements. The house was originally constructed for and owned
by Fontaine Fox, a world-famous cartoonist. Designed by John Volk,
it represents one of a few remaining "l?each" cottages reflecting
the Cape Cod bungalow style typical of houses built on North Ocean
Boulevard from Delray/Gulfstream to Manalapan.
The Owner: Fontaine Fox
In 1933, Fontaine Fox began purchasing the land for what would be
known as 610 North Ocean Boulevard. By 1934, he owned all of lots
1, 2, 3, 4 and the north half of lot 5 of Palm Beach Shore Acres.
The house itself is located on lot 3 and the north half of lot 4.
Fontaine Fox commissioned John Volk, a personal friend, to design
a house on North Ocean Boulevard.
Fox, a cartoonist of both national and international acclaim,
was best known for.his cartoon "Toonerville TrOlley". Launched in
1916, the cartoon was sy~dicated throughout' the world, appearing
in several languages. ' . "
1
-- --- ---- -~ - --.
- Born in 1884 in Louisville,' Kentucky, 'Fox began-; his-';career.as ....
a cartoonist in grammar school, continuing throughout high school
when he began working at the Louisville Herald as a reporter and
cartoonist. After two years of study at the Univer-sity of Indiana,
where he studied and drew cartoons part-time,'1 he :returned to
Kentucky to work at the Louisville Times until the Chicago Post
gave him national recognition and distribution in 1915. Much of
the small town subject matter for his cartoons cam~from people he
knew in then sUburban/rural Louisville. He moved to Delray in
_..___ 1931, after having visited there in the 1920's. Fox, in coming to
Delray, joined a number of well known artists and writers who --
by making Delray their home -- created an artists and writers
colony. These people included the cartoonist Herb Roth (whose
cartoons reflected. life in Delray), Wood Cowan, writers Hugh McNair
Kahler, Clarence BUddington Kelland, Nina wilcox Putnam (whose
articles published in Good Housekeeping magazine were illustrated
by another Delray resident Anita Brown) and poet Edna st. vincent
Millay.
Fox made his s~udio on ~ne se~ond floor of the Arcade Tap
Room, the hub of w1.nter actl.vity 1.n the town of Delray. He
ultimately built two homes on North Ocean Boulevard. He was an
accomplished golfer and the author of several books and articles,
including a series which ran in many papers which;was based on his
narrow escape in 1939 from war-torn Europe. During the war he was
a member of the Division of pictorial Publicity.
In 1951, Fontaine Fox sold the house at 610 North Ocean
Boulevard to Alfred and Anne C. Hart. (Alfred died in 1958, and
Anne C. Hart ultimately became Anne Hart Mott of the Mott
Applesauce family.) Fox formally retired in 1954 and died at his
home in Greenwich, Connecticut in 1964. The Delray Beach
Historical society recently honored him at an exhibit shown at the
"Cason cottage" Museum.
The Architect: John Volk
In the late 1930' s, Fontaine Fox, having had a long-tenn
friendship with John Volk, commissioned him to design the house at
610 North Ocean Boulevard. Volk was also the architect of Fox's
home just north of 610, as well as several others located in the
immediate Delray/Gulfstream area including Ocean Boulevard,
Seabreeze, and Palm Trail.
Born in 1901 in Austria, Volk came to the United states when
he was nine years old. He was a student at Columbia University
School of Architecture as well as the world renowned Ecole des
Beaux Arts in Paris. Volk continued to design homes until his
death in 1984.
John Volk arrived in Palm Beach in 1925 while Addison Mizner
was building spanish and Mediterranean style mansions for wealthy

families. A prolific architect, he ~e~igned_ov~~1~Q09 ,houses,
theatres, and buildings 'aIr over the -wet-lef. --'S-ome"ot' ~the 'world" ff' '
most powerful and wealthy people commissioned him to design their. "
homes, including Will.ia'm 'Paley, George VaI)~e~bilt,~,-Henry' Ford II," ,
Herbert PUlitzer, Horace Dodge' II, and John ~,hiPPs'.~,i .',' ~-: ~ ,
Volk has often been called the last of the original Palm Beach
architects which included Addison Mizner, Maurice Fatio, and Marion
Sims Wyeth. In 1926, he formed a partnership with Gustav Haas
which lasted almost ten years.
Volk's homes, which number several hundred scattered along the
coast, covered a broad range of designs from Spanish and Italian
motifs to Normandy, Bermuda, Regent, Classical oriental, bungalow,
and what he called British Colonial. Known to have "broken the
excesses" of the Mediterranean style after the Depression, Volk
began designing British Colonial houses that could be built for
forty-five cents a square foot versus two dollars per square foot
for the Spanish mansions. He related in an article in
~rchitectural Digest in 1972, "when the market crashed and the
Depression followed, there wasn't a client in sight who wanted to
build the elaborate Spanish house. Everyone was broke. Those who
weren't, didn t t want to make a show of their money." It was during
this period that the houses along North Ocean Boulevard were
designed.
volk designed some of the most prominerit buildings in the
area, including the First National Bank building in Palm Beach, the
Royal poinciana Plaza and Playhouse (which opened in 1?50, becoming
the first new prOfessional theatre to bebuiltfn the United Stat-es -,
since the Ethel Barrymore and the Adelphi Theatres opened their
doors in 1928), the galleries and theatre fo~ the Society of the
Four Arts, part of the Town Hall of Palm Beach, the Beach Club,
Phipps Oenza, and Good Samaritan Hospital. In later years, he
designed Paradise Island and was involved in early development of
planned golf course communities such as Port Royale in Naples and
Old Port Cove in North Palm Beach.
, During the Mott family' s ownership, "the southerly portions of
the land seaward of State Road A-1-A were conveyed to the City of
Delray Beach in support of a beach stabilization and renourishment
program. Recently the City commission of the city of Delray Beach
voted to convey ten feet along the southerly border of the Subject
Property east of state Road A-1-A back to the current property
owner as a part of the property owner t s proposal to plat a
buildable lot on the east side of State Road A-1-A.

ORDINANCE NO. 52-92
DATE: OCTOBER 23, 1992
This is the second reading of an ordinance which amends Section
33.62(C)(6)(a) of the City's Code (relative to Police and Fire pension
plan) to change the mandatory submission of an annual medical report
by a disability retiree to require the submission only if directed by
the Board of Trustees. This proposal was considered by the Commission
on July 21, 1992, at which time the Commission expressed support for
changing the requirement for the medical certification, provided that
the balance of the annual report pertaining to statement of earnings
would still be required of a disability retiree.
As indicated by the City Attorney, the proposed ordinance meets the
requirements discussed by the City Commission as well as those of the
Police and Fire Board of Trustees.
Recommend approval of Ordinance No. 52-92 on second and final reading.

ORDINANCE NO. 14-92
DATE: OCTOBER 23, 1992
This is the second reading of an ordinance which amends Section 33.66
(Finances and Fund Management) of the City's Code, specifically
subsection (E)(2)(b), to provide that the Police and Fire Board of
Trustees may invest up to sixty percent (60%) of the Trust Fund's
assets in common or capital stock. The code currently provides that
not more than fifty (50%) of the assets may be invested in this
manner.
This proposal was previously considered by the Commission on April 28,
1992, at which time certain aspects of the proposed amendments were
deferred for further study. The Commission indicated they would be in
favor of increasing the amount of investment from 50% to 60% as well
as certain grammatical and verbiage changes to the or~inance, provided
that mutually acceptable language could be arrived at. While
discussions remain ongoing as to certain verbiage, staff feels it
appropriate to proceed with the ordinance to permit the 50% to 60%
investment increase.
Recommend approval of Ordinance No. 14-92 on second and final reading.

DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING AND ZONING
SUBJECT: MEETING OF OCTOBER 13, 1992
FIRST READING: ORDINANCE RE FLEA MARKETS AND SIMILAR
USES
ACTION REQUESTED OF THE COMMISSION:
The action requested of the City Commission is that of
approval on first reading of an ordinance which provides
further definition to the term "flea markets" and which
allows such use in the CBD Zoning District.
BACKGROUND:
This i tern has been before the City Commission, in one form or
another, for more than a year. Earlier this year, the City
Commission denied Ordinance No. 54-91 (previous attempt at
further defining and regulating flea markets) and provided
direction to the Administration to come back with a simpler
approach. Please see the attached Planning and Zoning Board
staff report for a chronology of events and considerations of
this item.
PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD CONSIDERATION:
The Planning and Zoning Board formally reviewed this item at its
meeting of September 21, 1992, and forward the text amendment as
contained in the attached ordinance.
The Board's recommendation provides for operation within a
flexible regulatory environment. This is accomplished by adding
the words "bazaar", "farmer's market", "mini-mart", and "similar
uses" to the Conditional Use portion of the GC regulations which
currently contains the words "flea markets". Also, the above
words would be added to the CBD Zoning District, again, as a
Conditional Use. Thus, a petition for such a use would be
subject to the Conditional Use process. During such review, the
criteria and topics raised during the review of proposed
Ordinance No. 54-91 could be considered on an "as applicable"
basis. Additionally, standard definitions for each of the terms
are added to the Definition Section.

CITY OF DELRAY BEACH
SUBJECT: REGULAR MEETING OF SEPTEMBER 21, 1992
CONSIDERATION OF AN AMENDMENT TO THE LDRs RE
FLEA MARKETS AND SIMILAR USES
ITEM BEFORE THE BOARD:
The action requested of the Board is that of review and
comment upon a proposed modification to Sections
4.4.9(D)(9) and 1.4.5 Definitions of the LDRs. These
proposed changes provide further description and definition
to the term "flea market" and similar uses.
Section 1.1.6(A) provides that prior to action on a
proposed amendment to the LDRs, a recommendation is
obtained from the Planning and Zoning Board.
BACi<GROUND:
A Brief Chronology:
* In 1990, the concept of a "mini-mall" in the former
Sink-n-Swim location (CBD) was proposed and received some
general support as an activity to fill vacant floor space
in the downtown. Administratively, it was determined that
provided: inventory was retained on the premises, there
were normal hours of operation for all tenants, and each
retailer operated within an area separated from others by
walls which required building permits (as opposed to
temporary, moveable petitions), the resulting use was that
of a retail operation.
* In 1991, the "mini-mall" concept was permitted in the
shopping center at N. Federal Highway and 14th Street
(subsequently the use failed and no longer exists).
* Also in 1991, a concept promoted as a "bazaar"/"flea
market" was proposed for the former Ames building on
Military Trail. The promoter advocated that the use would
be conducted as a "mini-mall" (described above) . In
response to citizen concern about the proposal, direction
was given (by the City Commission) to the Administration to
create an ordinance which would further regulate
mini-malls, bazaars, and flea markets. Direction was given
to proceed with classification as a Conditional Use, a
broad definition, special performance standards for minimum
tenant size, parking, traffic impact analysis, signage, and
architectural (interior) review.

[NOTE: A complete building permit was not submitted for
conversion of the Ames building, but based on the
information that was formally submitted the Director ruled
that the proposal was, indeed, a flea market and would be
subject to Conditional Use approval].
* August, 1991:
- Draft of Ordinance No, 54-91 released.
- Draft approved on first reading on August 13th.
- CRA objection @ meeting of August 15th.
- DDA expressed opposition.
- P&Z Board deferred consideration until a collective
meeting could be held.
- Revised draft approved on first reading, August 27th.
* September, 1991
- P&Z, CRA, DDA joint meeting on September 5th at which
P&Z recommended approval, only after substantial
changes be made. The changes provided for exceptions,
change in definition, and other matters.
- City Commission, on September 10th, directed the
Admi.nistration to make further changes to the draft
ordinance.
* October, 1991
- City Commission referral of latest draft of ordinance
to the P&Z Board for review. This draft was
consistent with the Board's previous recommendations.
Some direction was to make the ordinance "stronger" ,
to prohibit flea markets, to accommodate downtown
festival markets, to exempt geographic areas.
- P&Z Board deferred consideration until November but
directed staff coordination prior to its next meeting.
* November, 1991
- No substantial recommendations came from the staff
coordination meeting.
- P&Z Board forwarded the draft ordinance with a few
additional changes.
- CRA affirmed opposition by letter of November 19th.
- Chamber of Commerce opposition contained in letter of
November 22nd which sought exclusion for the CBD or
having the CRA administer the regulations within the
CBD.
- On November 26th, the City Commission deferred action
and referred the item to the City Attorney for changes
affecting the definition, making it tougher, exempting
the CBD.

* , 1992
- Consideration of Ordinance No. 54-91 by the City
Commission in the same form as in November, 1991.
Referral to P&Z Board for comment.
- P&Z Board forwarded the proposed ordinance with the
same comments as per November 18, 1991.
- City Commission denied Ordinance No. 54-91 after
discussion of notice requirements (when exempting the
CBD) , the direction of the ordinance, and the
continuing problems with it. They also gave direction
to the Administration to come up with a different
approach.
Suggested Alternative Approach: The approach recommended by the
Planning Director is to operate within a flexible regulatory
environment. This would be accomplished by adding the words
"bazaar", "farmer's market" , "mini-mart", and "similar uses" to
Section 4.4.9(D){9) which currently states "flea markets".
. Thus, a, petition for such a use would be subject to the
Conditional Use process. During such review, the criteria and
topics raised during the review of proposed Ordinance No. 54-91
could be considered on an "as applicable" basis. Additionally,
standard definitions for each of the terms will be added to
Section 1.4.5.
Other alternatives:
(A) Remove the use "flea market" from the Code. This would not
resolve the situation in that other descriptive terms would
be used e.g. bazaar, mini-mart, etc. If wording is put in
place to not allow flea markets, bazaars, mini-marts, and
similar uses, the effect would be to not allow farmer's
markets, what has been referred to as "artisan shops", and
may disallow facilities such as the Delray Indoor Flea
Market (West Atlantic Avenue).
(B) Remove the use description from the GC, and hence PC, zone
district; add it specifically to the CBD zone district;
still, however, as a Conditional Use. This would appear to
satisfy suburban and downtown interests with respect to
some concerns; but, would not prohibit the establishment of
a facility similar to the Delray Indoor Flea Market if it
were to promote itself as "Marketplace West".
(C) Provide an all inclusive definition without specific
development standards. This approach would result in many
development and reuse projects requiring a Conditional Use
hearing process. Also, assuming that many would be
approved, any of which are denied may be able to argue
effectively that the denial was arbitrary.
( D) Provide an all inclusive definition with specific
development standards. This was the approached pursued,
then abandoned, over the past year and one-half.

MEMORANDUM J
TO: MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSIONERS
FROM: CITY MANAGER
SUBJECT: AGENDA ITEM ~ b2A - MEETING OF OCTOBER 27. 1992
ORDINANCE NO. 54-92
DATE: OCTOBER 23, 1992
This is first reading of an ordinance rezoning property located west
of Congress Avenue on the south side of Linton Boulevard (Abbey
Delray South property) from PRD (Planned Residential Development) zone
district to CF (Community Facilities) zone district.
In October 1979, the Commission approved a conditional use request and
site and development plans for Abbey Delray South. The approval
allowed a 288 unit (248 multi-family units and 40 single family units)
Life Care Retirement Center, along with an associated nursing home.
The property was zoned PRD-10.
With the adoption of the LDRs in October 1990, the multi-family units
and nursing home facility were rezoned PRD and the single family
villas RL (Residential - Low Density).
In June 1992, the Planning Department received a sketch plan to allow
the addition of four single family villas; a 12,224 square foot
addition to the nursing home; and a 576 square foot maintenance
building. During the review of the project for technical compliance
it was noted that nursing homes and/or continuing care facilities are
no longer permitted as a conditional use under the PRD regulations.
Therefore, rezoning to CF was recommended.
The Planning and Zoning Board at their October 21st meeting
recommended approval.
Recommend approval of Ordinance No. 54-92 on first reading.

SUBJECT: MEETING OF OCTOBER 27, 1992
REZONING FROM PRD (PLANNED RESIDENTIAL DISTRICT) TO CF
(COMMUNITY FACILITIES) FOR ABBEY DELRAY SOUTH
ACTION REQUESTED OF THE COMMISSION:
The action requested of the City Commission is that of
approval on first reading of a rezoning from PRD (Planned
Residential District) to CF (Community Facilities).
The subject property is Abbey Delray South, a Continuing
Care Facility located west of Congress Avenue, on the south
side of Linton Boulevard.
BACKGROUND:
At its meeting of October 8, 1979, the City Commission approved a
conditional use request and site and development plans for Abbey
Delray South. The approval allowed a 288 unit Life Care
Retirement Community (248 multi-family units and 40 single family
villas), along with an associated nursing home. The property was
zoned PRD-10.
In October 1990, the multi-family units and nursing home facility
were rezoned to PRD (Planned Residential), and the single family
villas to RL (Residential-Low Density), as part of the Citywide
rezoning and adoption of the Land Development Regulations.
In June of this year, the Planning Department received a sketch
plan request from Abbey Delray South to allow the following
modifications to the site:
.

Page 2
* the addition of four (4) single family villas;
* a 12,224 sq.ft 30 bed addition to the existing Nursing Home;
and
* a 576 sq. ft. maintenance building.
As the project was being reviewed for technical compliance, it
was discovered that nursing homes and/or continuing care
facilities are no longer allowed as permitted or conditional uses
under the current PRD regulations. As a result, the existing
development is a non-conforming use, and cannot be expanded.
Staff considered three alternative means of correcting this
nonconformity:
1) Changing the PRD portion of the development to RM
(Medium Density Residential)
2 ) Changing the PRO portion of the development to CF
(Community Facilities), and
3) Amending the PRO regulations to include Continuing Care
Facilities as a conditional use.
The attached staff report contains an analysis of those
alternatives.
PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD CONSIDERATION:
At its meeting of September 21, 1992, the Planning and Zoning
Board initiated a rezoning action for Abbey Delray South to
ei ther CF or RM, in order to allow staff to analyze both zoning
districts as they would apply to this development. Upon
reviewing the alternatives at the meeting of October 21, 1992,
the Board voted 7-0 to recommend approval of a rezoning from PRD
to CF.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
By motion, approve the rezoning from "PRD" (Planned Residential
District) to "CF" (Community Facilities) for Tracts U and V of
Abbey Delray South.

I T E M B E FOR E THE 8 0 A R D:
The action before the Board is that of making a recommendation
on a rezoning request from PRO (Planned Residential District) to
CF (Community Facilities).
/'
The subject property is Tracts U and V of Abbey Delray South, a
Continuing Care Facility, Nursing Home, and Residential
development with a total area of approximately 30 acres. It is
located west of Congress Avenue, on the south side of Linton
Boulevard.
Pursuant to Section 2.2.2(E), the Local Planning Agency shall
review and make a recommendation to the City Commission with
respect to rezoning of any property within the City.
B A C K G R 0 U N D:
At its meeting of October 8, 1979, the City Commission approved,
pursuant to PRD-lO zoning, a conditional use request and site
and development plans for Abbey Delray South. The approval
allowed a Life Care Retirement Community. The development
consists of three components:
* a 248 unit continuing care facility on 16.5 acres;
* a 60 bed nursing home on 1.5 acres; and
* 40 villas with individually platted lots on 12.4 acres.
In October 1990, the continuing care and nursing home facilities
were rezoned to PRD (Planned Residential Development), and the
villas to RL (Residential-Low Density), as part of the Citywide
rezoning and adoption of the Land Development Regulations.
The owner of record is the Palm Beach County Health Care
Facilities Authority, which issued bonds to finance construction
of the project. The project is operated by Life Care Services
Corporation, a non-profit corporation based in Des Moines, Iowa.
Abbey Delray South is considered a Continuing Care Retirement
Community, and is regulated by the Florida Department of
Insurance. Residents of the facility contribute an endowment of
$50,000 to $150,000 upon moving into the facility, plus a
monthly service charge. These payments assure them a living
unit in the facility and care at the nursing home, if necessary.
Project Description:
In June of this year, the Planning Department received a sketch
plan request from Abbey Delray South to allow the following
modifications to the site:
"
P & Z Staff Rep
Abbey Delray SOu~n Rezoning From PRO To CF
page 2
* the addition of four (4) single family villas;
* a 12,224 sq. ft. 30 bed addition to the existing Nursing
Home; and
* a 576 sq. ft. maintenance building.
As the pr~ject was being reviewed for technical compliance, it
was discovered that neither nursing homes nor continuing care
facilities are allowed as permitted or conditional uses under
the current PRD regulations. As a result, the existing
development is a non-conforming use, and cannot be expanded.
Z 0 N I N G A N A L Y S I S:
Rezoning of the property was initiated by the Board at its
meeting of September 21, 1992. At that time there was
discussion as to whether the proper zoning for the property was
RM, CF, or a combination of one or the other and RL. The
alternatives which were considered for this proposal are:
* Rezoning the portion of the site currently zoned PRO
(tracts "U" and "V") to RM;
* Rezoning the portion of the site currently zoned PRD
(tracts "U" and "V") to CF; and
* Amending the PRO regulations to allow continuing care
facilities as a conditional use.
Possible zoning designations for the site are discussed in the
Zoning District Analysis.
ZONING DISTRICT ANALYSIS:
Rezoninq to RM:
The RM zoning designation could be applied to the portion of the
development currently zoned PRO. Continuing care facilities and
nursing homes are allowed as conditional uses in RM, and would
allow for an expansion of the existing nursing home facility.
The density of the continuing care facility would be 17.5 units
per acre. This density is permissible under RM, per the
provisions of LDR section 4.3.3 (G) (3) (a), which increases the
maximum density of the base zoning district by a factor of 1.5
for continuing care facilities.
.
P & Z Staff Rep'
Abbey Oelray SOu~n Rezoning From PRD To CF
page 3
Amendment to PRO:
Another alternative would be to leave the property in PRO zoning
and initiate a text amendment to PRD zoning regulations to allow
continuing care facilities and nursing homes as conditional
uses. The former PRD-10 zoning category permitted ACLFs, child
and adult day care, churches, community centers, continuing
~ care, schools, golf courses, natural resource utilities,
swimming clubs, and tennis clubs as conditional uses. All of
these, except day care have been eliminated from the PRO zone,
in order to limit development in the PRO district to its
intended purpose as a mix of single family and multi-family
housing.
Rezoning to CF:
An alternative to the above is to rezone the property to CF,
Community Facilities. The CF zoning is intended to apply to
facilities which serve public and semi-public functions. While
Abbey Oelray is a residential community, it differs from the
standard multi-family development in several respects. Chief
among those are the following:
* Provision of services--The principle appeal of this
type of community is the care and services which are
immediately available to the residents. Residents
offered a variety of services including meals,
cleaning, access to health care, transportation, and
various personal services. Most of these services are
included in the initial endowment fee and monthly
rent.
* Resident characteristics--Residents must be 62 years
age or older in order to live in Abbey Oelray South.
The average age in the community is 82.5 years, and
eighty percent of the residents are female. While a
number of the residents do not require any special
assistance, many of them are unable to fully care for
themselves. Residents specifically choose this type
of community to ensure that assistance will be
available to them when necessary.
* Nursing home component--The existing nursing home has
60 beds, and 30 additional beds are planned. The
nursing home is available on a temporary or permanent
basis to all residents. In addition, any unoccupied
beds are made available to persons from outside of the
community.
* Employees--Approximately 140 persons are employed at
Abbey Oelray South, to service the 288 units and the
nursing home. This is a much larger number than would
"
P & Z Staff Rep' ~
Abbey Delray Sou_~ Rezoning From PRO To CF
page 4
be required to manage a typical multi-family property
of this size.
The above listed factors are indicative of a use which is
service-oriented, and which differs from the standard
residential development. For these reasons, the Community
Facilities zoning is more appropriate than the RM. In addition,
the administrators of Abbey Delray South have indicated a desire
for a zoning classification which would reflect the unique
aspects of a continuing care facility. The Community Facilities
zoning provides that distinction.
Remainder of the Site (villas):
The portions of the development (12.4 acres) with 40 villas on
individually platted lots are currently zoned RL. While
continuing care facilities are not permitted in the RL zone,
these villas can be considered as single family units, which are
permitted. The density is also consistent with RL limits (3.2
units/acre) . It is not critical to the proposal that these .
units be rezoned to CF at this time. However, the owners have
indicated a desire to have a single zoning designation apply to
the entire site. A rezoning to CF should be applied to the
villas at a future date.
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 zoning district and the zoning district must be consistent
with the land use designation.
The current Future Land Use designation for the entire
property is Medium Density (5-12 units to the acre)
Residential. The requested zoning change is from PRO
(Planned Residential Development) to CF (Community
Facilities). The allowable zoning designations which are
deemed consistent with the Medium Density Land Use
designation are:
- RM Medium Density Residential (existing zoning)
- CF Community Facility
- R-1 Single Family Residential
- RL Residential Low Density
- PRO Planned Residential Development
.
P & Z Staff Rep' .
Abbey Oelray SOl.. __1 Rezoning From PRO To CF
page 5
The proposed zoning designation of CF is consistent with
the current Future Land Use designation. The existing
continuing care facility and nursing home on parcels "U"
and "V" are permitted as conditional uses in the CF zoning
district.
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.
As the site is currently developed, and the rezoning is
corrective in nature, no additional demand for service
capaci ty will be generated by this action. The proposed
future development of the the facility is not of the
magni tude which would create any problems with regard to
levels of service. Concurrency will be specifically
addressed in the site plan process.
. Consistency: Compliance with the performance standards set
forth in Section 3.3.2 (Standards for Rezoning Actions) along
with required findings in Section 2.4.5(0)(5) (Rezoning
Findings) 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 the making of a
finding of overall consistency.
Section 3.3.2 (Standards for Rezoning Actions): The applicable
performance standards of Section 3.3.2 and other policies which
apply are as follows:
A) That rezoning to other than CF within stable residential
areas shall be denied. (Housing Element A-2.4)
This rezoning petition is in a neighborhood which is
designated as a stable residential area. As the rezoning is
corrective, to accommodate existing uses, and the proposed
rezoning is to CF, a positive finding can be made.
0) 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 subject property is currently zoned PRO (Residential
Multiple Family). To the north, west and south is property
zoned RL (Residential Multiple Family) and to the east is
RM (Residential Multiple Family) . The surrounding land
uses are single family villas to the north, west, and
south, and Linton Lake Apartments to the east. The zoning
change will reflect existing conditions and will not affect
the compatibility of the property with adjacent uses.

Section 2.4.5(0)(5) (Rezoning Findings):
Pursuant to Section 2.4.5(D)(1) (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:
./
a. That the zoning had previously been changed, or was
originally established, in error;
b. That there has been a change in circumstances which
make the current zoning inappropriate;
c. 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 applicable reason is "a," pursuant to the following:
The PRO zoning district currently assigned to tracts U and
V, was changed in 1990, removing Continuing Care and
Nursing Homes as conditional uses. The existing land use
on the parcel was rendered non-conforming by the change.
As the intention of the change was not to phase out
continuing care facilities, the application of the PRO
designation to this property was inappropriate.
LDR Compliance:
Section 4.3.4 (Development Standards Matrix):
The parcels in question meet CF district requirements for
minimum lot size, lot width, lot depth, lot frontage, lot
coverage, density, and setbacks. The existing continuing care
facility building also meets the current CF height limit of 48'.
A site plan modification request will be required for the
proposed addition. Further LDR requirements will be addressed
during the review of that proposal.
REV I E W B Y o THE R S:
The rezoning is not in a geographic area requiring review by
either the HPB (Historic Preservation Board) , DDA (Downtown
Development Authority) or the CRA (Community Redevelopment
Agency) .

ASS E SSM E N T AND CON C L U S ION:
This development functions as a continuing care facility,
offering a variety of services to residents. The property is
operated by a not-for-profit corporation and supported by bonds
issued by a public authority. This is consistent with a
"semi-public use, " as stated in the the Purpose and Intent of
the CF District. The continuing care and nursing home uses
presently on the site are permitted as conditional uses in CF.
A rezoning of the portion of the development currently zoned PRD
to CF would allow for necessary improvements or expansions to
the existing facilities without creating undue conflicts with
surrounding developments. The portions of the site developed
with villas may retain their current RL zoning for the present,
but should be considered for CF zoning in the future.

TO: MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSIONERS
FROM: CITY MANAGER
SUBJECT: AGENDA ITEM i /2 E) - MEETING OF OCTOBER 27. 1992
ORDINANCE NO. 55-92
DATE: OCTOBER 23, 1992
This is first reading of an ordinance rezoning the North Ocean
Boulevard parking lot property located on the west side of Ocean
Boulevard, north of Atlantic Avenue from CF' (Community Facilities)
zone district to OS (Open Space) zone district.
In August 1991, the Planning Department received a letter from the
Beach Property OWner's Association, which expressed concerns relative
to the potential for the establishment of commercial activities in the
beach parks given the allowance of cruise boat operations at Veteran's
Park.
CF zoning allows certain accessory uses which are commercial in
nature, such as food vendors. The proposed rezoning to OS would
protect "the parks from commercial activities.
The Planning and Zoning Board at their September 21st meeting
recommended approval.
Recommend approval of Ordinance No. 55-92 on first reading.

Beach Parking Lot and Atlantic Dunes Rezoning
Page 2
The beach parks are currently zoned CF (Community Facilities). CF
zoning accommodate a variety of uses. The Association wanted to
protect the parks from those types of activities and the
potential for commercial uses. A zoning designation of OS (Open
Space) would provide that protection.
The underlying land use for the parks is also CF. Until
recently, the OS (Open Space) zoning was not an allowable zoning
under the CF land use designation. The land use
~esignation/zoning matrix had to be amended so that the OS (Open
Space) zoning would be consistent with the Community Facilities
land use designation. This was accomplished at the City
Commission meeting of September 8, 1992 with the approval of
Comprehensive Plan Amendment 92-1.
A follow up to that action is to rezone the parks from CF
(Community Facilities) to OS (Open Space) , which is the action
now before the Board.
PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD CONSIDERATION:
The Planning and Zoning Board formally reviewed this item at
their regular meeting of September 21, 1992, and unanimously
approved the rezoning on a 7-0 vote.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
By motion, approve the ordinance on first reading to rezone the
subject properties from CF (Community Facilities) to OS (Open
Space) .

B A C K G R 0 UNO:
In August of 1991, the Planning Department received a letter
(copy attached) from the Beach Property Owner's Association,
which expressed concerns relating to the potential for
commercial activities to be established in the beach parks given
allowance of an intercoastal cruise boat at Veteran's Park.
The beach parks are currently zoned CF (Community Facilities).
CF allows certain accessory uses which are commercial in nature,
such as food vendors. The Association wanted to protect the
parks from any commercial activities. A zoning designation of
OS (Open Space) would provide that protection.
The underlying land use for the parks is also CF. Until
recently, the OS (Open Space) zoning was not an allowable zoning
under the CF land use designation. In response to the Beach
Property Owner's letter, the use and the Zoning and Future Land
Use Map designations of the beach parks was considered at the
formative stages of Comprehensive Plan Amendment 92-l. The
result of that consideration was for the land use
designation/zoning matrix to be amended so that the OS (Open
Space) zoning would be consistent with the Community Facilities
land use designation.
A follow up to that action is to rezone the parks from CF
(Community Facilities) to OS (Open Space) , which is the action
now before the Board.

PRO J E C T DES C R I T ION :
Atlantic Dunes Park contains 7 acres, includes a beach area,
approximately 114 parking spaces, rest rooms and a shelter.
Sandoway and Ingraham Avenue Park contains 2.6 acres and
/'
approximately 124 parking spaces and rest rooms. Anchor Park
contains 2.5 acres, 84 parking spaces and rest rooms. The Ocean
Boulevard parking lot is not yet constructed. It will contain
0.4 acres and 29 parking spaces. The site of Fire Station #2
immediately to the west, will remain CF.
Note: The existing "North Beach Parking Lot" is zoned CBD. It
is to be demolished with the expansion of the Holiday Inn.
Therefore, is not included with this rezoning petition.
Z 0 N I N G A N A L Y S I S:
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 zoning district and the zoning district must be consistent
with the land use designation.
The requested zoning change is from CF (Community Facility) to
OS (Open Space) . The OS (Open Space) zoning designation is
deemed consistent with the Community Facilities land use
designation.
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.
The proposed OS zoning will not have an impact on the level of
service standards, and will in fact lessen the likelihood of any
future development which would affect levels of service.

Consistency: Compliance with the performance standards set
forth in Section 3.3.2 (Standards for Rezoning Actions) along
with required findings in Section 2.4.5(0)(5) (Rezoning Finding)
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 the making of a
finding-~f overall consistency.
Section 3.3.2 (Standards for Rezoning Actions): ~he applicable
performance standards of Section 3.3.2 and other policies which
apply are as follows:
A) That rezoning to other than CF wi thin stable residential
areas shall be denied. (Housing Element A-2.4)
The parks are located in stable residential neighborhoods. As
part of this proposal, the land use/zoning matrix was amended so
tha t the OS zoning is consistent with the Community Facilities
land use designation. It would be appropriate that the LOR's be
. amended so that OS is added to this standard, as Open Space
permitted uses include cemeteries, water bodies, parks, etc.
which are appropriate uses within stable residential areas.
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 proposed Open Space zoning is more restrictive than the
current CF zoning designation. It will stabilize the current
uses, thus ensuring the parks continuing compatibility with the
adjacent land uses.
LOR COMPLIANCE:
Section 2.4.5(D)(5) (Rezoning Findings):
Pursuant to Section 2.4.5(D)(1) (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:
a. That the zoning had previously been changed, or was
originally established, in error;
b. That there has been a change in circumstances which
make the current zoning inappropriate;
c. 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.
.
P&Z Staff Report
Beach Parks Rezonings
page 4
Item C above is the reason for which the rezoning change is
being sought, as the requested zoning is of similar intensity as
allowed under the Future Land Use Map and that the proposed
zoning of OS is more restrictive than the current CF zone
designation, and therefore, is more appropriate for the parks
given their locations within stable residential neighborhoods.
/'
Other:
A question may be raised as to how some of these parks with
stand alone parking lots are accommodated under the OS zoning
district. The OS district allows parks as a permitted use,
and parking lots as an accessory use [REF: Section 4.4.22]. In
this case the parking lots would be considered an accessory use
to the Municipal Beach Park.
There has been some discussion regarding a proposal to construct
a lifeguard station at Sandoway Park. Currently, this type of
use would not be allowed under the OS district. However, it
would be appropriate that the LDR'S be amended so that public
facilities associated with public needs be allowed as an
accessory use.
REV I E W B Y o THE R S:
The rezoning is not in a geographic area requiring review by
either the HPB (Historic Preservation Board) , DDA (Downtown
Development Authority) or the CRA (Community Redevelopment
Agency) .
Neighborhood Notice:
Formal public notice has been provided to property owners within
a 500' radius of the subject properties. A courtesy notice has
been sent to the Beach Property Owners Association and the Parks
and Recreation Department.
ASS E SSM E N T AND CON C L U S ION:
The rezoning of the parks to Open Space will eliminate the
potential to accommodate commercial activities within the beach
parks, thus eliminating any potential to create an
incompatibility with the surrounding neighborhoods. The
requested zoning is of similar intensity as allowed under the
Future Land Use Map.

To the Mayor and City Commission
City of Delray Beach
Florida, 33444 -
- -. , - -- --
This ;s to follow up on our request before the City Commission
on Tuesday evening, August 13, 1991 with respect to rezoning the
beach parks, Atlantic dunes, Sandoway, and Anchor, to carry the
same zoning as the main public beach.
After informal discussion with several Commissioners, we felt
there was some agreement with our position to keep commercial
activities from the beach parks. There already are adequate
commercial facilities on the west side of State Road AlA in the
. area of the Atlantic Avenue intersection; all other is residential.
To review the existing cir~umstances: The 11 mile main public
beach is already zoned OS. Atlantic Dunes Park (500 ft. beach) is
presently zoned CF; but in our view should always have been zoned
OS because the north 400 ft. is a conservation area. It was
purchased by the city about 24 years ago, and when the beach park
was later developed by the County (Which had later acquired the
remaining land now in the park) the 400 ft. property was preserved
- as a natural beach hammock, while the southernmost 100 ft. is the
( "working part" of the beach park. Sandoway and Anchor Parks, while
presently zoned CF, are only separated from the public beach by the
width of State Road AlA. The east curb marks the OS zoning line,
the west side of the road (no curb) at the present time marks CF
zoning.
Because commercial is now is allowed as a conditional use in
CF zone, the Beach Property Owners' Association makes the following
request: That the City Commission initiate the rezoning of Atlantic
Dunes, Sandoway, and Anchor Parks to OS, and also make the appropriate
Land Use Map changes. We request that the City commission also make
the following change to the LOR's to add accessory uses to OS:
Sec. 4.4.22 (C~cessory Uses and Structures Allowed: The
following types of use are allowed when a part of, or
accessory to, the principal use:
:. ' -.t*
"......: ,. .. "'-'
..~-.;:,~i..u';'~.!~.- -.i"'...

'.
.
.
Follow~~Q~n_~POA Au~ust 13 r~~~~! --
ADD (5) Beach and lifeguard shelters and beach cabana service.
You will find a distinct similarity between the above proposed
(5) for beach parks, and the existing (4) which allows "Golf course
clubhouse, proshop, maintenance buildings" as an accessory use in os.
(Please see attachment from the lDRls). Appropriate accessory uses
are thus provided in the lDR's for th~ open space golf course; we
believe the accessory uses essential to the public beaches ought to
be treated in the same way.
The Comprehensive Plan also treats both in the same way. In
Sec,GS Future land Use Map under Recreation and OQen Space land Use
it 'is stated, "Open space areas include... beaches... golf courses
... etc." Also, "Public recreation areas which also hav~ indoor- ----
facilities (e.g. community centers) are more apt to be shown as
"Community Facilities". (Please see attachment from the Comprehensive
Plan). None of the beach parks has indoor facilities except for
restrooms, which are an allowed accessory use in OS zone.
We greatly appreciate you attention to this matter, which is
intended to protect the character of our beaches. We believe it also
will be appreciated by the many residents of this city who take such
pleasure and pride in the quality of our pUblic beaches.
Thank you for this consideration.
Sincerely yours.

Section 4.4.22 '~n Space (OS) District: " .
(A) Purpose and Intent: The Open Space (OS) Zone District

land which are used primarily in an open space manner. Although
created to reflect open space areas as shown on the Future Land
Use Map, the OS District may also be applied to portions of land

Commerce: This designation is applied to property which is
developed, or is to be developed, in such a manner as to
accorrunodate a mix of industrial, service, and commercial
uses. This may be done either through development of
existing parcels or through a planned concept.
Zoning districts which are consistent with this land use
designation are: ~
* Mixed Commercial and Industrial (MIC)
* Planned Commerce Center (PCC)
.
AGRICULTURAL LAND USE: There are no designations _ f.o~ __ ,_
agricultural land use on the Future Land Use Map. The City of
Delray Beach Planning Area is an urbanized area with, in 1989,
over 87\ of its land area developed. The long-term continuance
of existing agricultural operations is not compatible with the
urbanization which is occurring. Current agricultural uses (e.g.
nurseries, orange grove) shall be zoned as ART (;A.gricultural-
Residential Transition).
RECREATION- ,-'OPEN SPACE LAND USE:\' This designation applies to~
public" recreational areas (such as municipal parks), to ope~ ,
space areas, and to conservation areas. Open space areas include
canals, waterways, beaches, shores, estuarine systems, .'"golf,.
:courses~private open (common)-areas within planned developments,
'* and undevelopable parcels. Public recreational areas' which -, alsO'
have indoor. facilities (e.g. ,communltY!l centers) are more apt to
,be shown'as"'uCommunity Facilities". The conservation properties
I are those lands shown on the Conservation Map. Land shown under
. this designation shall not be used for any purpose other than
~ recreation, open space, or conservation.
"
Zoning districts which are consistent with this land use
designation are:
* Community Facilities (CF)
* Open Space (OS) (This zoning district is to be created
after adoption of the Comprehensive Plan)
CONSERV;A.TION LAND USE: This designation applies to those
specific properties identified in the Conservation Element as
land to be preserved. No other land use is appropriate. These
properties shall be either be placed into public ownership or
developed only as allowed by policies of the Conservation
Element. The are shown on the Future Land Use Map under the
Recreational and Open Space designation.

ORDINANCE NO. 56-92

This is first reading of an ordinance rezoning the Sandoway Park
property located on the northwest corner of Ocean Boulevard, south of
Atlantic Avenue from CF (Community Facilities) zone district to OS
(Open Space) zone district.
In August 1991, the Planning Department received a letter from the
Beach Property Owner's Association, which expressed concerns relative
to the potential for the establishment of commercial activities in the
beach parks given the allowance of cruise boat operations at Veteran's
Park.
I
CF zoning allows certain accessory uses which are commercial in
nature, such as food vendors. The proposed rezoning to OS would
protect the parks from commercial activities.
Additionally, there has been some discussion regarding a proposal to
construct a lifeguard station at Sandoway Park. Currently, this type
of use is not allowed under the OS district. However, staff believes
that it is appropriate to amend the LDRs so that public facilities
associated with public needs can be allowed as accessory uses.
The Planning and Zoning Board at their September 21st meeting
recommended approval.
Recommend approval of Ordinance No. 56-92 on first reading.
