In order for cities to be truly successful and to generate the tax base and economic activity needed to be sustainable, they need multiple districts to perform well. Delray Beach has been highly successful transforming its downtown into a nationally renowned destination. The city has also done tremendous work in several neighborhoods and commercial districts. But in many ways, Congress Avenue remains the key piece to long term success. Congress Avenue's potential for job creation, increased tax base, business incubation, workforce and affordable housing, transit -oriented development and place making should make the 4.1 mile corridor a top priority for public and private sector investment and attention. The Task Force believes the corridor is a natural complement to the city's celebrated downtown and in many ways see a synergistic relationship between our urban core and what we hope will be a dynamic and successful corridor. Delray Beach has proven time and again, that place making investments yield tangible and intangible returns. The city's continuing investment in its downtown has created an economic and social powerhouse anchored by An Investment in Placemaking will Transform Congress Avenue food, beverage, housing, retail and culture. The successful revitalization of the central business district and its older neighborhoods has increased property values citywide, changed Delray Beach's image and has generated a tremendous return on investment. Similarly, we see the same opportunities along the Congress Avenue corridor. An investment in place making—linear parks, complete streets, improved medians, public plazas and transit connectivity — will differentiate Congress Avenue in Delray Beach from our neighbors to the north and south while also benefitting from some of the successes Boca Raton and Boynton Beach have seen on Congress Avenue. Over the past year and with City Commission interest, more than three dozen volunteers have spent countless hours studying the corridor and discussing recommendations for how to best bring about the potential we see on Congress Avenue. The talent included residents, engineers, planners, landscape architects, real estate brokers, a university professor, land owners, investors, transportation experts, City and County representatives and economic development and business professionals. We divided our large groups into committees to tackle aesthetics, finances, zoning, transportation, real N estate analysis, policy, branding, marketing and more and have produced a report that we believe can serve as a catalyst for transformation. We see Congress Avenue as a key component to Delray's future success and financial sustainability. We are passionate believers that a market exists for corporate investment, education, housing, food, retail, light industrial and government uses. If we can connect to our downtown, we believe the transformation can happen more rapidly. While we are bullish on the future, we also understand that we have a hard task before us. While there are many pockets of progress and things to feel good about along the corridor, we are well aware of the amount of work that needs to be done. There are substandard housing, crime and code conditions to deal with. There is a high level of vacancy and blighted conditions to alleviate. This report offers practical and in some cases dramatic strategies to foster transformation. We took a creative but real world approach to our work and look forward to next steps. The ideas contained herein, if executed together, will create Delray's "Next Great Street." Jeff Perlman, Task Force Chairman CDS Holdings, Delray Beach Mayor 2003-2007 Guiding Principles The Task Force spent considerable time discussing and framing a new vision for Congress Avenue which would leverage existing assets while seeking to build human capacity, create unique places, establish a distinctive identity for the street and strengthen its connections and synergy with Downtown and Delray Beach's western communities. These guiding principles seek to inspire, influence and guide future decisions, actions and approaches to Congress Avenue along with the implementation of a 21St century economic development model to ensure Congress Avenue's accelerated transformation. 1. New development and redevelopment should attract aspiring, diverse and talented people to live, work and play since jobs and other investment will follow the people. 2. Fostering an inclusive, welcoming community for all through more affordable housing choices and stellar neighborhood design. 3. Encouraging a higher intensity and increasing density with mixed uses will build vibrancy and a stronger tax base. 4. Growing the corridor's employment centers, manufacturing facilities and entrepreneur -maker -creator spaces is needed to diversify and benefit the City's local economy. S. Making the area a destination, not just a passage way, comprised of unique users -tenants with a compelling draw that will contribute to Delray Beach's overall brand. 6. Transforming underutilized spaces into places to socialize and experience is crucial to improving the area's quality of life. 7. Linking Congress Avenue to east and west Delray Beach by building a highly mobile transportation network - emphasizing walking, biking, mass transit and not just driving - will provide a competitive advantage for the corridor. 8. Because aesthetics matter to residents, visitors, investors and placemaking, funding beautification projects and other strategic infrastructure along Congress Avenue is critical to demonstrating the City's commitment to the corridor. 9. The private sector as an engine of growth plays a key role in Congress Avenue's future success. 5 Initial Assessment: Pockets of Progress ... No Sense of Place "Good Bones" But Needs Attention While some visionary property owners and investors have already created pockets of progress along Congress Avenue, most stakeholders believe the area has been largely ignored as evidenced by lack of building and landscaping maintenance, litter, graffiti, abandoned vehicles, illegal signage and generally low curb appeal. Working with owners to refresh buildings and maintain parcels is an important first step in uplifting the area. C.1 A Drive-Thru Corridor With six through lanes and posted speeds of 45 miles per hour, the strategically positioned corridor is regularly used as a thoroughfare (or raceway) to neighboring cities where Congress Avenue is better known as a corporate hub or a strong commercial -retail corridor. The Task Force believes by slowing speeds, redesigning the road into a Complete Street, developing more destinations and enacting place making, Congress Avenue can revamp its character similar to the redesigns along Delray Beach's Atlantic Avenue and Federal Highways. Unfilled Potential Congress Avenue is a street of unfilled potential. It has broad vistas and wide rights -of -ways; significant undeveloped and underdeveloped parcels; opportunities for parks and greenways; multiple modes of transportation; proximity to schools, a municipal golf course, recreational areas and one of Florida's preeminent downtowns. The corridor's 1960-70s suburban aesthetic, areas of blight, underutilized industrial sites, outdated plazas and minimal food -retail establishments are ripe for rebuilding with an urban 21St century sensibility. f i MAW r W 44 000 4 New Vision "A vibrant, 24/7, mixed-use urban and industrious district for 21 St century life. " Catalysts From Vision to Reality Creative catalytic strategies and solutions are needed to transform Delray Beach's Congress Avenue into a dynamic producer of jobs, tax base and prosperity for the next 30+ years. Here's what is needed most. ■ Updated Zoning & Fast -Track Development Approvals Existing zoning and other land development regulations are not keeping with the times and are serving to deter development and new businesses. As a multi modal transportation corridor, Congress Avenue needs to foster higher density and intensity through mixed uses and urban -oriented zoning versus its current suburban scale in order to thrive economically. The creation of an expedited development services and permitting approval process for area projects will help trigger adaptive reuse and new development on the Corridor. Aesthetics The overall design of the corridor should be of the highest architectural and environmental Mobility: Complete Streets & More Transit Options Mobility - with limited reliance on cars - is key to the future success of standards. More areas should be Congress Avenue. As a Complete made available for parks, open space, wide sidewalks, bike paths and public art. Medians should be updated, water features added and lighting improved to positively impact the lifestyle and look of the Corridor. Finally, a complete signage program including gateway and banner pole signs should be implemented to distinguish the area from "anywhere USA." Street, the corridor will be equally inviting to pedestrians, bicyclists, transit riders and motorists. Trolleys, bus rapid transit, high tech scheduling and bike -ped paths can combine to provide the necessary instantaneous availability and mobility to Downtown, west Delray and regionally generating economic and environmental benefits. Also, lower traffic speeds and redesigned lanes will improve safety for neighbors and children walking -bicycling to and from home, schools, neighborhood stores and other services. Catalysts From Vision to Reality Transit -Oriented Development Transit -Oriented Development at or near the Delray Beach Tri -Rail Station on Congress Avenue is a transformational opportunity for the area. By mixing office, retail, housing and other amenities like public and recreational places into a walkable neighborhood located within a half -mile of the existing Tri -Rail station, Delray Beach has the opportunity to improve access to jobs, expand mobility, increase property values and accommodate a more healthy, active, lifestyle for its neighbors and families. Sustainable Development & Living The "greening" of Congress Avenue will help support the City's commitment to sustainability and improve quality of life along the corridor. Active public square, open space and plazas, waste to energy infrastructure, rainwater harvesting, high performance buildings, tree planting campaigns, urban agriculture, smart grid and other eco -district - like projects and initiatives will make the corridor extremely attractive to future growth and development. New Housing Choices Increasing housing opportunities for varying income levels along with offering new housing choices in the Congress Avenue area will help to build its vibrancy and attract new talent. Energy efficient equipment and high speed digital communications technology are key components to home-based work units. Micro and modest size units in more densely populated neighborhoods will meet the ever- changing needs of the emerging millennial generation, aging boomers and new 21St century families. 9 Catalysts From Vision to Reality Placemaking and Spaces Activation Fred I{ent and the team at Project for Public Spaces promote the idea that "it takes a place to create a community and a community to make a place." Congress Avenue is Delray Beach's next opportunity to unleash our creativity and breathe life into new spaces and personalize our community. Food truck rallies, warehouse art events, corporate barbecues, neighborhood camps, musical gatherings or shipping containers as the next proof of concept pop- up store are just a few of the exciting possibilities. a A Learning Presence It's been a long -held desire of Delray Beach to strengthen its education system and institutions. Attracting and developing a higher -education presence on Congress Avenue will help the community raise its educational level and provide additional lifelong learning opportunities. Additionally, an expanding college or university offerings will improve the quality of Delray Beach's ever-growing workforce and add to its intellectual vibrancy. Naming, Identifying and Marketing When asked where we live or work, we often identify the place by using a neighborhood name. Developing a unique and authentic identity for Congress Avenue will require community engagement and image building. Additionally, it is anticipated that as emerging hubs, neighborhoods and larger sites along the corridor are redeveloped, new names will be created organically. A resourced and comprehensive public relations and marketing program will be important to ensure the community and potential investors are kept `in - the -know.' Old School Bakery and Saltwater Brewery Area When Old School Bakery relocated to Congress Avenue in 2003 and Saltwater Brewery opened in late 2013 around the corner, the corridor started to become a location of choice for locals, hipsters and visitors seeking to enjoy the best locally -made bread and beer in Delray Beach. As these businesses have grown so has the reputation of Congress Avenue. As such, there is now growing interest to expand culinary crafts, urban farming and restaurants in this "makers" area. Palm Beach County South Administrative Center This 7 -parcel, 28.38 acre site currently houses six buildings totaling 112,500 square feet of office space. Additionally, the site features three ancillary structures, one communications tower, one fuel island, one intermodal center and more than 800 parking spaces for transit users and customers of Palm Beach County. The County is willing to work with the City to update its master plan and is supportive of our revised long-term vision of the Corridor. Former Office Depot Campus Office Depot relocated its headquarters from Delray Beach in 2008 and since then the 42 -acre site has been dormant. Current owners have developed a mixed-use master plan and have declined offers by others interested in developing the land. Some believe the site would be well-suited for an institution of higher learning, various municipal operations, large corporations, mixed-use and new residential development. Lake Ida Road Area When it appeared that some of the artists residing in Artists Alley would need a new home, several considered the Lake Ida Road area. As a result, more artist -maker -tech entrepreneur types are gravitating to this area of the corridor to take advantage of some of the underutilized spaces. Additionally, the City's vacant parcel on the NW corner of Lake Ida Road and Congress Avenue is prime for future (re)development. Immediate 1.

(Planning) 4. Provide new fast-track permitting and development services for Congress Avenue projects and pilot a single board approval approach for (re)developments. (Short -to -Mid-term /Planning) 5. Complete a corridor Traffic Study to examine the feasibility of a Transportation Concurrency Management Area and identify the best places to reduce speed limits and convert Congress Avenue to a Complete Street. (Planning /Environmental Services) 6. Expand the Delray Beach Downtown Roundabout service to all employment centers along Congress Avenue and pilot an "express lunch shuttle" to Downtown Delray Beach. (Environmental Services) 7. Redesign and fund the City's grants and incentive toolbox to help revitalize residential and commercial properties along Congress Avenue. (Community Improvement/ Economic Development) 8.

Also, lower traffic speeds and redesigned lanes will improve safety for neighbors and children walking -bicycling to and from home, schools, neighborhood stores and other services. t. �; :L Updated Zoning & Fast -Track Development Approvals Existing zoning and other land development regulations are not keeping with the times and are serving to deter development and new businesses. As a multi modal transportation corridor, Congress Avenue needs to foster higher density and intensity through mixed uses and urban -oriented zoning versus its current suburban scale in order to thrive economically. The creation of an expedited development services and permitting approval process for area projects will help trigger adaptive reuse and new development on the Corridor. Aesthetics The overall design of the corridor should be of the highest architectural and environmental standards. More areas should be made available for parks, open space, wide sidewalks, bike paths and public art. Medians should be updated, water features added and lighting improved to positively impact the lifestyle and look of the Corridor. Finally, a complete signage program including gateway and banner pole signs should be implemented to distinguish the area from "anywhere USA." Mobility: Complete Streets & More Transit Options Mobility - with limited reliance on cars - is key to the future success of Congress Avenue. Asa Complete Street, the corridor will be equally inviting to pedestrians, bicyclists, transit riders and motorists. Trolleys, bus rapid transit, high tech scheduling and bike -ped paths can combine to provide the necessary instantaneous availability and mobility to Downtown, west Delray and regionally generating economic and environmental benefits. Also, lower traffic speeds and redesigned lanes will improve safety for neighbors and children walking -bicycling to and from home, schools, neighborhood stores and other services. Catalysts From Vision to Reality Transit -Oriented Development Transit -Oriented Development at or near the Delray Beach Tri -Rail Station on Congress Avenue is a transformational opportunity for the area. By mixing office, retail, housing and other amenities like public and recreational places into a walkable neighborhood located within a half -mile of the existing Tri -Rail station, Delray Beach has the opportunity to improve access to jobs, expand mobility, increase property values and accommodate a more healthy, active, lifestyle for its neighbors and families. Sustainable Development & Living The "greening" of Congress Avenue will help support the City's commitment to sustainability and improve quality of life along the corridor. Active public square, open space and plazas, waste to energy infrastructure, rainwater harvesting, high performance buildings, tree planting campaigns, urban agriculture, smart grid and other eco -district - like projects and initiatives will make the corridor extremely attractive to future growth and development. New Housing Choices Increasing housing opportunities for varying income levels along with offering new housing choices in the Congress Avenue area will help to build its vibrancy and attract new talent. Energy efficient equipment and high speed digital communications technology are key components to home-based work units. Micro and modest size units in more densely populated neighborhoods will meet the ever- changing needs of the emerging millennial generation, aging boomers and new 21St century families. 7 Catalysts From Vision to Reality Placemaking and Spaces Activation Fred Kent and the team at Project for Public Spaces promote the idea that "it takes a place to create a community and a community to make a place." Congress Avenue is Delray Beach's next opportunity to unleash our creativity and breathe life into new spaces and personalize our community. Food truck rallies, warehouse art events, corporate barbecues, neighborhood camps, musical gatherings or shipping containers as the next proof of concept pop- up store are just a few of the exciting possibilities. 10 A Learning Presence It's been a long -held desire of Delray Beach to strengthen its education system and institutions. Attracting and developing a higher -education presence on Congress Avenue will help the community raise its educational level and provide additional lifelong learning opportunities. Additionally, an expanding college or university offerings will improve the quality of Delray Beach's ever-growing workforce and add to its intellectual vibrancy. Naming, Identifying and Marketing When asked where we live or work, we often identify the place by using a neighborhood name. Developing a unique and authentic identity for Congress Avenue will require community engagement and image building. Additionally, it is anticipated that as emerging hubs, neighborhoods and larger sites along the corridor are redeveloped, new names will be created organically. A resourced and comprehensive public relations and marketing program will be important to ensure the community and potential investors are kept 'in - the -know.' Old School Bakery and Saltwater Brewery Area When Old School Bakery relocated to Congress Avenue in 2003 and Saltwater Brewery opened in late 2013 around the corner, the corridor started to become a location of choice for locals, hipsters and visitors seeking to enjoy the best locally -made bread and beer in Delray Beach. As these businesses have grown so has the reputation of Congress Avenue. As such, there is now growing interest to expand culinary crafts, urban farming and restaurants in this "makers" area. Palm Beach County South Administrative Center This 7 -parcel, 28.38 acre site currently houses six buildings totaling 112,500 square feet of office space. Additionally, the site features three ancillary structures, one communications tower, one fuel island, one intermodal center and more than 800 parking spaces for transit users and customers of Palm Beach County. The County is willing to work with the City to update its master plan and is supportive of our revised long-term vision of the Corridor. Former Office Depot Campus Office Depot relocated its headquarters from Delray Beach in 2008 and since then the 42 -acre site has been dormant. Current owners have developed a mixed-use master plan and have declined offers by others interested in developing the land. Some believe the site would be well-suited for an institution of higher learning, various municipal operations, large corporations, mixed-use and new residential development. Lake Ida Road Area When it appeared that some of the artists residing in Artists Alley would need a new home, several considered the Lake Ida Road area. As a result, more artist -maker -tech entrepreneur types are gravitating to this area of the corridor to take advantage of some of the underutilized spaces. Additionally, the City's vacant parcel on the NW corner of Lake Ida Road and Congress Avenue is prime for future (re)development. 11 Immediate Declare the redevelopment of Congress Avenue a City goal and begin to align policies, programs, funding, staffing and partnerships around it. (City Commission) Form a public/private Congress Avenue Implementation Committee for overseeing plans, marketing the corridor and building community engagement.

(Planning /Economic Development) Long -Term. 13. Advocate for a greenway along the E-4 canal, a network of open spaces and linear parks, a shared use pathway along the CSX railway ("rails with trails") and a pedestrian bridge over Interstate 95. (Long-term /Planning -Environmental Services) 1. Request the formal adoption of the Congress Avenue Task Force's recommendations at an April 2016 Regular City Commission meeting. 2. Form the new public/private Congress Avenue Implementation Committee and begin meeting bi-monthly. 3. Hire a planning consultant to assist with preparing amendments to the Comprehensive Plan and Land Development Regulations to minimize the impediments to economic development along the corridor and to support the vision and development patterns being recommended by the Task Force. 4. Launch an internal cross -functional Congress Avenue "GO" team to agree to a new level of service for Congress Avenue and integrate into the City's three-year strategic planning -budget cycles. 5. Meet with Palm Beach County elected officials and County Administration to present the new vision and make a request that the South County Administrative Center master plan be updated using the corridors new guiding principles. 6. Submit applications for local initiative and transportation alternative grants to fund future greenway and Complete Street construction programs. 7. Conduct a Congress Avenue Business Walk with economic development partners and City departments. 8.

An initial assessment of the more than 468 parcels of land (692- acres) is estimated at $375 million in 2015 i Plnrc of Delray rsh and represents nearly 5% of the City's total value. 2. Congress Avenue office real estate prices are near (., • / ,C1 ` $115 per square foot (S.F.) and substantial new private N9N' 3ti1 RA development is not expected until prices rise closer to - "W 2-1 ruy,i�ppn S. $250/S.F. 3. Approximately 325,000 S.F. of vacant office and flex ; t space is currently available for lease. 4. Approximately 55 acres, including the former Office --i\v , sr pn�o a1l�Aei�av i aay.acpsui Depot site, are available for sale and/or prime for � s P redevelopment. 5. Small flex and office space ranging from 2,000 to 5,000 S.F. is a missing component to Congress Avenue's�� commercial real estate inventory. d 6. Quality retail and eating establishments are also ---- missing from the corridor. 7. Occupancy rates at existing residential rental properties are high at a level exceeding 90%. 8. Average daily traffic of 136,283 is similar to Federal Highway and has only grown 1 % since 2009, with most of the growth in traffic trips occurring south of Atlantic Avenue. 9. According to the 2010 U.S. Census, there are approximately 7,124 neighbors living along or near Congress Avenue with a media age of 39.7 and a racial diversity of 59% White, 36% Black, 16% Hispanic, 4% Asian and 9% Other. Today's Congress Avenue 10. Among the 3,765 total housing units in the area, the average Congress Avenue household size is 2.69 and vacant housing is estimated to be 15.76%, as reported by the 2010 U.S. Census. 11. The Delray Beach Train Station - with an average daily combined ridership of 700 for Tri -Rail and Palm Tran services - is a unique asset and is expected to help generate new transit -oriented development to the area. 12. In reviewing tenant reports from Costar and OneSource, the top industries along Congress Avenue include: Retailers/Wholesalers (19%); Business Services (16%); Unclassified (16%), Medical Services (11%); Personal Services (9%) and Manufacturing (5%). 13. Palm Beach County's South County Administrative Complex is one of the largest centers along the corridor - second only to the former Office Depot Site - and is comprised of 7 parcels, 28.38 acres, 6 buildings totaling 112,500 S.F., 3 ancillary structures, 1 communications tower, 1 fuel island, 1 intermodal transit center with 174 parking spaces, and an additional 626 parking spaces for customers and 160+ employees. 14. The largest redevelopment opportunity remains the 42 -acre former Office Depot site. 15. Two new Congress Avenue development projects are moving through the planning and permitting processes, including a warehouse project and drive-through Dunkin Donuts at Linton Square, totaling nearly 50,000 S.F. of new construction.

Most buildings are so outdated they should be demolished. 2, Has been an underutilized asset for decades. E=xcluding the Health Clinic, effective land utilization is approximately 15%. Most space is used for surface parking, parking aisles, and roads. 3. The current office -only use and low density suppress Tri -Rail, Palm Tran, and Roundabout ridership. 4. Lack of residential and commercial components result in no evening or weekend 8Ctivity. S. Tri -Rail ridership is further suppressed because drivers are uncomfortable leaving their cars in the parking lot after dark. These security concerns would not be present if there were more people around as there would be in a mixed use successfu C TDD. 6. Contains County uses that are incompatible with a successful Transit Oriented Development (TOD) - e.g. Parks & Rec maintenance equipment, a gas station and motor pool. 7, Is an incomplete mobility facility: a. Lacks sidewalk entrances from Congress Avenue, b. No ped/bilce, paths or linkage within the Center, c. Contains an insufficient number of bike lockers, d, Provides no bike sharing, e. Insufficient Tri -Rail parking at peak tirries, f. Lacks a shared use path along the CSX tracks. S. Even though the City of Delray Beach created new larid development regulations (LDRs) years ago to allow fc)r mixed use development, no action has been taken to make this happen. 9. Lack of an east entrance restricts economic opportunities for residents of the S.W. area. 1D. Larks sufficient Congress Avenue signage for both Tri -Rail and the Health Clinic. 11. The Center is targeted at a very low maintenance level by the County. 12.. On site circulation is circuitous and inefficient. 13. Provides no tax revenue for the City or County. 14.

Within the City of Delray Beach, Congress Avenue is a six [ane divided arterial with a posted speed limit of 45 mph and a right of way width of 120 ft. Figure 2 below shows the. typlual section for this roadway, per the Palm Beach County's Traffic Engineering Departnicnt. Figure 2; TypicaJ Sectlon of 120' ROW 11' 4 12' 191 11.' 22' 11' 111 12° 4' 47' Safety Concefns According to Palm [leach County's Crash Data Management Tool, there has been one reported accident involving bicyclists and no pedestrian accidents along Congress Avenue within the last 14 years_ This accident occurred at the 5ummlt Boulevard intersection. This intersection also has the highest occurrence of vehicle to vehicle crashes; with 32 accidents repotted_ With"rn Palm Beach County pedestrians and bicyclists aged 41-55 account for the hlghest number of fatalities from 2GIO-2014, (Palm Beach County Crash Data Management 2015). Traffic calming, adequate street lighting, additional pedestrian cfosswralks and center refuge islands may help in improving non -motorized users' saFety. Addltlonally, ongoing public education is needed to stress the importance of staying visible, being predictable, and obeying non -motorized traffic laws, Traffic Analysis The Paltn Beach MRO, in coIlaboration with the Cou nty Tra ffi c Engineering department, coJIects 24-hour traffic counts on an annual basis throughout the entire County (including peals hour volumes and intersection turning movement counts)- The MPO uses this data, along with future land use amendments and papulation grid employment forecasts, to estimate future roadway volumes through the use of a regional travel demand model (SERPM 6.5) that corrently #las a horizon yearof 2040. Congress Avenue currently exists as a G -lane divided facility (6LD)r which according to the County's traffic performance standards has an operating capacity of 50,300 vehicles per day (for Level of Service D), with an average daily volume of approximately 30,O00 across the entire corridor between Linton BJvd and Atlantic Ave (see Table 1), These volumes are expected to grow however to ars average daily volume of 40,000 in year 2040 according to the SEEPM 6.5 travel dernarid model, which is still vi+ell Complete Struts Corridor Preliminary Analysis DeIrav Bea,li, Congress Ave L-30 Canal to the C-15 Canal} below the operating capacity of the existing corridor. The Latest version of SERPIVI (version 7.0), which will be utilized in the next round of adoption of the MPO's Long Range Transportation Plan, estimates even fewer volumes along this corridor in 2040 due to its capablhty to model mode choice dawri to the individual level. One C. -in :argue which version of the model is more accurate, or "reliable," but in the rnean time a conservative approach Evill be taken by utilizing the higher volume projections, It is worth noting that the traffic counts are collected one calen6ar day oat of the year, during the peak -season of travel (and historical data is availahle to compare year-to-year growth) - Table 9 One -day Observed Traffic Counts and Traffic P Roadway I From To Cnst Faaslbla Observed 2075 2040 SERPM 6.5 Laws I Couras I Atgustad Volume CONGRESS AVE j Llntun Nvd Lumon Blvd 6f3 24,774 35,400 CONCRBS AVE Lovison Blvd Atlantic Ave 6D 29.209 38,A04 CONGRESS AVE Atlantfi Ave Lako Idn Rd ba 34-765 43500 A simple exercise was performed to determine the adjusted dally volume -to -capacity (V/Q ratio In year 2040 if Congress Avenue were, In the case of tills 5eexiarla, reduced to a 4 -lane divided facillty (a5 opposed to a SLD) and It was calculated that the average Vf C ratio across the slAected corridor is approximately 1., 12 (1,05 D for a 4LD is egLia l to 33,200 daily vehicles). In other words, the level of service is antic1pated to operate at 12' above LOS D capacity in year 2040 according to daily volumes. However, when analyzing the peak -directional volume only (bath the AM and PM peak hours}, which tends to he a more significant indicator of a facility's traffic performanc-ce, the peals hour directional VIC rat 1as across the entire corridor in 2040 is less than 1_0_ It Is Important to note t1lat a more refined sub -area analysis would have to be perforrned using the travel demand model (SERPM) that displays the new lane - elimination configuration of Congress Avenue in order to determine the new set of 2040 equilibrium volumes along the corridor, which may in fact reduce liven the facility's new capacity and non - motorized features. A more detailed analysis is needed to farther justify a lane elimination on Congress Avenue, such as a sub -area analysis to visualize and estimate the redistrihution of traffic on adjacent roadways, and turning movement volumes (along with intersection LOS), but the preliminary analysis shows promise that Congress Avenue is a viable candidate for lane elimination based on current and future traffic volumes, Recommendations and Alternatives On December 6, 2015, the Palm Beach MPO held a Complete Streets Workshop wherein parddpant5 were briefed on the current condition of the roadway then led through an exercise to reconfigure Congress Avenue into a more complete street; inclusive of all users and abilities. Suggestions included; • Deduce lanes from six to four. 3 Complete Streets Corridor Preliminary Analysis DeIray Beach: Congre. ss Ave {L-30 Ca nal to the C-15 C'aria iI • Reduce speed limit to 35 mph, • Imiplenient gree nway along the E-4 Canal bank.

But it could be l)elraVs ' i'deNt Great Street," an innovative business hub that emulates the vibrancy of dowmtoum and is easily accessible. "U din Congress Avenue represents a tremendous o�portunit+�• to leverage our tluiving dottiirto�rn and its borders," Mayor Croy Glickstein said. Glickstein recently created a new tall: force, led by formes maysor Jeff Perlman, to re% ive a vision that has been on hold for -mars. "It has to be a place," Perlman said of the Congress corridor. "It can1just be anywhere USA. It has to feel like a place with its own personality and things to do %ith its oun energy." Plans for Delray's stretch of Congress Avenue include a Brix of office space, commercial and residential development. Perlman described Nlray's section of Congress Avenue bet%%ven neighbors. Soca Raton and Boymton Beach as a hole in a doughnut. In Boynton, Congress is the do'Amto%m tibere folks go out to dinner. In Boca, Congress is a corporate hub. '"There's a big difference coming into the Boca line. It feels more corporate and professional and manicured. Delray has a lot of rough patches." Now Perinuw and a 3o -member team are corking toum—d another Delray development renaissance. "We really see it as an extension of the Vibe Atlantic Avenue offers," said resident Jim Chard, Biro serves on the task force. The idea is you can work, live and plays there." The Congress corridor is just west of Interstate 9a and is close to a Tri -Rail station where the city offers a fiw trolley service for people to take do«mtoiwn. "Vere are all these different modes of transportation that can help define the area," Chard said. Perlman said the area is also an opportunity for more affordable housi -kg options. ' 11iis might be the place that we can attract y ouRg professionals that can't afford domitot%-a rents, but still would like to be liNing and working in Delray Beach," he said. A plan on potential ways to spur development on Congress could be presented to conunissioneis by the end of the year. I1ien he was mayor, Perlman led the push to redevelop the Congress corridor after Office Depot, one of the city's largest private employers, annowiced it was leaving for Boca in :2ooa. " tire huddled with some city people uid figred out how- to make lemonade out of lemons,.. Perlman sai& The result was a plan for a mix of places to live, work and hang out. The city &urged development rules to attract projects that could be built higher and closer together thU' l in other parts of the city. But then his term ended in ?ow, the economy crashed and pipe dreams fizzled. To successfully,, attract developers to Congress, Perlman said the cite needs to add bfl a lanes, improve medians and add landscaping. In the big picture, the group has identified hvo possible locations i�fiere catal st projects could help spur redermlopment of the entire corridor. The first location would involve help from Palm Beach County. The idea involves r{etiamping the decades -old Administrative Complex, 345 S. Congress Are. The 25 -acre site, Much has offices for the supen sor of elections, property appraiser and county commissioners, is adjacent to the Tri -Rail station and includes a park-arid-rade lot. The group believes that site is a prime location to incorporate housing, restaurants and offices without losuig the countv facilities. Another potential redevelopment location would be the former office Depot campus, i�hich ofteis more than 4o acres of land just south of Linton Boulevard. Ideas for that site include adding co-wtirldw spaces where people from different companies work- in the same building or incubator spaces, which offer inexpensive office space to start-up businesses. Delray; real estate agent, resident and task: force member Christina Morrison said people want to come to Congress. The area doesn't have enough flexible spaces that are suitable for businesses such as think - tanks. She also said the area is missing the amenities that -workers expect near their offices, such as restaurants and coffee. shops. 'OMere is no Starbucks on Congress," she said " t Ve have to provide more_" But she said Congress does have its selling points. It is less expensive than do Amtown, close to public transportation and has less traffic. "People like being close to being downtown without hassle," she said, '"There is a lot more. to Delray; than Atlantic Avenue." ingottesmaxi ?s�iriserttit�et.co�ri, S r�� -Ei; or Twitter @nmrisa_gottesman Copyn4ht 0 2035, Sun Sen nna] BY LINDA BROWN Congress Avenue in Delray Beach can be a pretty dismal place. There's nothing aesthetically pleasing about the 4.1 mile corridor which con- nects to a vibrant corporate corridor in Boca and a popular shopping and dining district in neighboring Boynton Beach. Even though the corridor makes up a large portion of Delray's 16 square miles, Congress Avenue underperforms in terms of tax revenue, economic activity and buzz, especially when measured against the city's hopping downtown. And yet the Congress Avenue corridor has tantalizing possibilities. As far back as 2005, city officials have seen enormous untapped potential along Congress Avenue. A decade ago, when Delray's largest private sector employer Office Depot an- nounced it was vacating its world head- quarters on 40 plus acres along Congress Avenue, then mayor Jeff Perlman thought it made sense to reimagine and rezone the land, an effort that later expanded to a sig- nificant chunk of the corridor. What resulted was a vision to allow a mix of uses ranging from office and retail to entertainmentand residential alongthe corridor. The goal was also to turn the cor- ridor into a transit oriented development taking advantage of a nearby Tri Rail sta- tion and a new trolley service that could ferry workers and residents downtown. The vision also called for beautifying the corridor which pates in comparison to Congress Avenue in Boca. But a decade later, thanks to recession and other priorities, little has changed. But now an effort spearheaded by the current city commission and led by a task force chaired by Perlman is resurrecting M November 2015 1 www.AtianticAveMagazine.com the vision, adding to it and fine tuning policies and zoning to meet current and future needs. "We are studying and planning to sug- gest and hopefully implement some really cutting edge ideas in planning and place making," says Perlman. "The talent on the task force is formidable and impres- sive and they are digging in and making incredible suggestions. The volunteers that have come forward to work on this project are great minds and as a result we are going to reinvent this corridor so that it becomes Delray's next great place and business opportunity." From engineers and planners to real estate professionals and property own- ers the task force consists of an impres- sive array of professionals and concerned residents. Economic Development Director Joan Goodrich is the staffer spearheading the effort. She sees enormous potential on the corridor in terms of jobs, tax base, activi- ties and housing opportunities. She also sees the possibility of linking Congress to the downtown. "The vision is exciting and so is the po- tential," she said. Chamber of Commerce President Karen Granger said Congress already has a range of interesting businesses and that when the area is improved the story will be a compelling one. Mark Corlew and Anuj Grover are two examples of entrepreneurs who have in- vested heavily by purchasing and success- fully leasing the 200,000 square foot Ar- bors buildings. They see a big future for Congress and feel it's critical to link with the success of Atlantic Avenue. A smaller but important effort is tak- ing place at the Delray Tech Space run by Mark Layman who offers co working for what he says is a growing tech community. In addition to growing the job count on the corridor a task force led by Jim Chard, Jim Smith and Shirl Fields is working on aesthetics and place malting. They are advocating for mobility, fewer lanes and slower speeds. They are also pushing open space and green elements. The final report is due by year's end. If successful,says Perlman. "Congress Av- enue will be Delray's next great street. We did it downtown. We can do it here as well. We know how to do this." JW SPECIAL FEATURE II CONGRESS AVE. BIG IDEAS ANNOUNCED FOR CONGRESS AVENUE BY LINDA BROWN This month, a citizen task force will present an ambitious vision to transform Congress Avenue into Delray Beach's "next great street." The task force, chaired by former mayor Jeff Perlman and consisting of property owners, residents, engineers, transporta- tion planners and real estate profession- als spent the better part of 2015 meeting, brainstorming, planning and envisioning a vibrant mixed use corridor that will grow the city's tax base, add jobs, beautify and provide a housing options for young professionals. Atlantic Ave Magazine takes a look at the five "big ideas" the task five will present to City Commissioners in March. COMPLETE STREETS - according to Smart Growth America "Complete Streets" are streets for everyone. They are designed and operated to enable safe access for all users, including pedestrians, bicyclists, motorists and transit riders of all ages and abilities. Complete Streets make it easy to cross the street, walk to shops, and bicycle to work. The task force is recommending that Congress be converted into a complete street to change the look and feel of the corridor from a fast moving non-descript road into an attractive street. Delray has had enormous success rede- veloping Atlantic Avenue, Pineapple Grove, US 1 and Northwest/Southwest Fifth Av- enue by changing the physical look and feel of those streets. The task force felt the Congress Avenue was ripe for similar treat- ment including design that will increase safety and add beautification and pedes- trian elements. A CATALYST PROJECT - another key idea is to find and support a catalytic project to jumpstart Congress and get investors and the public to rethink the corridors possi- bilities. The term the task force used was transit oriented development, a phrase 0March 2016 1 www.AtiontleAvaMagazlne.com used to describe a project that has a mix of uses and also includes a transportation component like Tri -Rail. Possibilities include rethinking the County government buildings (which in- cludes a Tri -Rail stop) and the former Of- fice Depot headquarters which has been vacant for over a decade and has more than 40 acres and a sea of parking to work with. PLACE MAKING - a key component of suc- cess includes beautification and turning the corridor from a bland wasteland into an attractive place with linear parks, public plazas, attractive landscaping etc. The task force believes the corridor can become an attractive place for young professionals but in order for that to happen it has to be at- tractive and offer a range of activities and amenities. Currently there are few shop- ping and dining options. FAST TRACK APPROVAL PROCESS - the task force is strongly recommending an easy, predictable and fast approval process. This would be a stark contrast to the long, unpredictable maze like process that has bedeviled downtown projects. Offering in- vestors a friction free predictable process is a must task force members agree. A CONNECTION TO ATLANTIC AVE - task force members surveyed property own- ers and almost all said that Delray's brand is inextricably connected to Atlantic Av- enue's remarkable success. As a result, efforts must be made to connect to Down- town whether it's via branding that talks about proximity to Atlantic Avenue or transit options that get people back and forth from Congress to Atlantic. The task force report contains dozens of ideas beyond these five. The report will be available via the city's website this month.

Ferree focused on learning from City leaders the significance Congress Avenue has to the City and what - if any - capital improvements are planned for the corridor. Additionally, the Task Force discussed its timeline and process formaking recommendations to the Ci Ly Commission Iater in the year, Remarks, Actions & Agreements: ■ Amer calling the meeting to order, Jeff Perlman accepted one c_hangc to the April 21, 201.5 minutes by Jiro Smith who indicated 5.A.F.E. offered to contribute to a "complete streets" study for Congress Avenue during the inaugural meeting. ■ Don Cooper encouraged the task force to focus on uses and developn-ient patterns to drive a vision for the corridor's future thatwoulrl be'°long-lasting and sus tai liable (at least 10-15 years)." I Ie indicated a vision would be crucial to ensuring the correct infrastructure investments would be made in the future. Additioriall , he emphas! zed two areas along the corridor khat could be transform. ationaI including the former {office Depot site and the land owned by the County around the Tri -Fail station. He also noted the wide travel lanes could eventually accommodate bike lanes and wider sidewalks if that was determined important to occur to attract additional private investment. Task force members asked several questions seeking clarification of the Cit3�8 thoughts for Cong ss Avenue and what support would he made available to the Task Force. Mr. Cooper stressed that any infrastructure investments such as in transportation, utilities, technology (fl her optics) would need to fol I ow the "vision." ■ Task force members also highlighted some of the issues they see impacting UhC! future success of the corridor including homelessness, development processes, mobility, out-of-date codes, parking reel uirements and financial incentives. ■ On the topic: of financial incentives, Don Cooper shared it has been his experience khat real estate, workforce and the abiIity to be profitable are the key drivers over Iinancia] incentives for companies seeking to relocate/expand in a community. 05111-15rI Summary Notes or the 7455 Cangress Aventine Task Force Meeli g ■ Key Recommendation: Single board approval For Congress Avenue projects to encourage dcveIopment �couId be a pilot program for the City) ■ Randal Krejearclt updated the Task Force our the City's timeline in identifying key projects for the Capital Improvement Program.

Congress Avenuc, 1," Floor 0611i1531 Su mm a ry N otes for Congress Avenue 4 Report from the Uses Subcommittee of the 21115 Congress Ave -nue Task Force Submitted by: Christina Morrison, Deborah Fink, Lynlee Fraser Glynn June 0, 2015 Deborah Fink, Lynlee Fraser -Glynn and I met recon by to discuss the Congress Aven tie corridor - a-va i I a bi 1i ty and strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats - As background, in studying Lhc avaiIa h! 11 ty of space and Iand in the Congress Aven ae corri dor, we Dave found: Approximately 325,{}00 5F of vacant office and flex space is currently available for lease; and Approximately S5 acres (in clu ding the 37+/- acres cif the Office Depot tract) are or will be for sale to he developed/redeveloped. reports are attached for your review. F There are also several apartment properties along the Congress Avenue corridor in Delray beach 2nd all appear to be, and are reportedly., highly occupied. With regard to the vacant office and flex space, whim Lhat space is absorbed, according to industry gu idcIincs of approximately 250 SF per worker [inn u d i n g common areas and other floor factors], ap proximaU, ly 1300 workers can be accornmodated in this currently -vacant space. Regarding the fcrture develop rnent o15 5 acres, tris 2mount of Iand will yield appro,ximaCcly 550,000 SF of worker space - office, flex, retail, mixed use - which will accommodate another approximately 2200 workers on the Congress fiver u corridor or soine can lie used for condos and apartment houses. You will note that a large amount of the existing available space is large spaces; in comparison, relatively few small -size spaces are available. A large major4 of calls we receive for space are for small flex and office spaces - 2,000 to 5,000 SF is requested by the bulk of our prospect calls, mirroring .Delray Beach's entrepreneurial surge witnessed elsewhere in the City. As such, the need for these size spaces is evident. It was also rested that there is a serious lack of mice retail and "eatery" space right along Congress. Worker -s need to travel cdown Linton, to Atlantic or dawn to Yamato in Boca to eat and cin normaI everyday errands. When some nf'the current retail is updated and repurpos+ed, and whoa some new retail and eating establishments are buiIL, Ns will enable the Congress Avenue 061015r1 Summary Notes for Go1n9rc1;3 Avenue corridor to more Gully realize its' potential as a thriving park -live -eat -shop area. Tin addition, when multi -anodal pathways are completed and marketed properly, and perhaps a bike -sharing program is implemonLed city-wide (including Congress Avenuej, as was recently started in West Palm Beach, more people will opt to use them su this is a vary mod":st estimate. Along with the Tri -Rail station, these multi -modal pathways call also be used to attract workers who do not use automobiles as transportation to/from work, Again, these are modest estimates and should increase dramatically after develuprncnt plans are solidified. and the Congress Avenue corridor is made niore °"user-friendly'° for workers and visitors - multi-inodal pathways are installed, the trolley routes arc.% cap tended, and the Tri -Rai I Station is more widely-used/marketed. ■ RECOMMENDATION: We Feel it is VERY IMPORTANT that the trolley be extended to the employment. centers along Congress Avenuc- to make thc: Tri - Rail station easier to use For workers and also as a conduit to and fi•om the downtown far workers to commute to work, to lunch, to shoppjng, eine. This. will also help reduce scone traffic and parldng issues dovmtn n. In short, the n eyed for retail, office, flex and residential space is evident and this need should be reflected in the permitted uses in the various zonings. Mixed use (MRFIC, MIC, etc.), wh.ic:h would serve.} to Jivers Congress Avenue in general while shrinidgg the need for constant use of automobiles, should be permitted and encouraged.

Thl—; reality is the drive behind the Policy &. Tools World tig Group's strong recommendation to develop a `rine-stop shop' approach to development services for Congress Avenue. Adyn1nistrative sign -offs should be increased to allow for '"nimbleness" and any new "expediting" processes should be made available to the entire ecosystem -corridor to make the biggest difference. ■ Building heights were also discussed along with "life -safety" issues for taller buildings - especially those greater Haan 75' in height. ■ It was also noted the existing parking requirement in the MROC zoning is too great For a restatiurant-eate ry to be attracted to Congress Av(,n uo. The Curren t condition of Saltwater Brewery is a good example of this issue. ■ ASSIGNMENT: Chairman Perlman asked the Policy & Tools Working Group to mcct wi t Tint StiIIings, alae City's Planning fir.

Without havi ng;3 future land use plan, many of these options may not be viable based on changes In land use. I tried to assume that nothing will change in the near future. 2. 1 did not consider any federal programs due to the coming election year and tenuous funding of many of these programs over the last 10 years. This carnment is most notable related to EPA and HUD programs for brownfields, Smart Growth initiatives, residential development, and other funding sources. 3. A question 1 tried to answer is "What are the key a rens/cataly-tic areas in the corridor that coukd be used to activate additional. development. Sadly, the key areas seem to be intersections with access to 95, making this area more a pass-through area than a collecting area, With the exception of the county buildings, it is difficult to make this area a destination based son existing conditions, 4. 1 did not include the City of Del ray Beach as an option for directly paying for any of the improvements, either through bond issuance, direct development, or any other means, 5_ There are members on the task force with equal or greater knowledge about transportation - specific. funding sources, so I did not include these #possibilities, 6. The sunsetting of Florida's Enterprise Zone Program on 12/31/15 obviously excludes it from consideration. 7. 1 dict not explore foundations as possible funding sources. 8. 1 aiso did not loots extensively into Enterprise Florida, but :many of the pfogmms pa it up well with the future redevelopment of the corridor, such as the Florida Opportunity Fund as a pos.sibie funding source for infrastructure firrancing, Obvious Options/Possibilities One obvious option would be a CRA, with the TIF function going towards the necessary infrastructure improvements. Without knowing the likely Increment available, especially due to the amount of property that may be tax exempt, the Increment from the creation of a CRA may not provide enough adequate funding for years. Additionally, tho ,passibility eX15t5 th Elt CRA legislation may be overhauled in the near future. Moreover, the recent CRA issues in Delray Beach may make this option politically infeasible despite being financially feasible. Another passibility, although with similar challenges due to the county's property being tax exempt and the single-family Components throughout the area, is a husiness improvement district, which also rnoy not provide enough bang for the buck. However, the BID would be rine way to faster partnerships to leverage possible funding from the city. Additionally, 61Ds are often used in corridor redevelopment projects similar to Congress Avenue throughout the world. Industrial revenue bonds tied to some sort of job creation, which may be viable if we figure out targeted uses for the a rea. These targeted uses may also lead to additional funding sources at the state level or existing programs in the region, county, or city, as well as the possible development of programs to spur the attraction of targeted uses_ a_ If we are able to target specific uses, a host of tools ranging from tax incentives to badness-specl#ic programs may be used to attract these targeted uses_ b, From a deveJopmerrt/redevelopment perspective, the possibility of density bonuses, possible land swaps, and other land -related policies. c.. The U.S. Small Business Administration has multiple loan programs, sua-h as the SBA 504 program. d. 1 don't know a lot about Florida's State Infrastructure Bank beyond the fact that it exists, but it could be a passible source of debt finance, 4. I'm assuming that, based on many of the uses in the area, there may be a need for some brownfield remediation, which would acquire applying to the state for funding and expertise to offset remediation casts. This option is essentialiV a secondary or tertiary option for cleaning up properties. 5. Some sort of alternative special assessment district specifically tailored to infrastructure improvements. I'll be honest, I'm still farrtillaria ing myself with Florida programs, but in Texas there were over a dozen programs that were fairly m a I I e a ble if the justification was solid enough to fund special projects that were largely capital -intensive. 6. Florida Recreation Development Assistance Program has competitive grants up to $200,000 for public recreational uses. Based an some of the beautification comments related to this corridor, this funding source can help offset some of the other infrastructure improvements. It would require the city, county, or a quasi -governmental entity (such as a CRA or BID) to apply for the grant, a. Piggybacking on 95, Keep American Beautiful grants are another funding mechanism, albeit at a much lower rate, likely around $20,000. Submitted by.

Start: 11.30 a.m. End: 1.00 p-m- COnrrnents re: 1)raft Report v 2.0 and Micrusite • General comments from the group stated that the report was well done:, Lhorough, beau Li fully presented and easily digested, offering good synopsis of how we've gotten to thi s point. • ]oars Goodrich asked the group how we continue the movement of making Congress Avenue Delray's 'Next Great Street", envisioning a Du 11 -scale marketing and branding effort to create support among stakcholders and officials, while genera tiingbuzz among potential users. • Elizabeth Burrows unv ei Ied tete draft version of a new mic:rosite for Congress Avenue th@1-;vilI be managed by Lhe Office of Economic Developrnon t. Current conten t includes key da La paints anti select excerpts from the report, sucb as the new vision and highlights of the catalyst strategies that can be used to transform the corridor. The website is expected to evolve, bccoirting a better tool for business aUra ction and u way to highlight_ success st€rries o f existing users and upcoming cdevelopment. c) When asked to help pick a TTRL for the site, the group agreed on "congressaveciclra .corn" using Telray Beac11's Next great Street" as a tag line. • Th ere was a broad discussion abou t whether the language in the rcport regarding development regulations and zoning standards should he more specific. o Current by -right development standards allow for 4' height; maximum residential density of 50 units/acre in areas closest to the Tri -Rail stat.ioTi, lout lower elsewhere. Setback and open space req uir c irents are not co rtsisLent with urban standards. MROC zoning requires huiI dings to bei set back Froin the read, which is the Opposite ofwhat the vision calls for. o Most of these issues can he fixed with a simple text amendment to the i.DRs. Staff added that significant increases to the maximum allowed density along the corridor could be more complicated than just a text amendment, bcca.use the Cornp Plan requires the city to demo ash -ate that infrastructure can hand Ie the increase, or that it can be increased to sustainable levels within a certain period of tithe. This will roquire an analysis of infrastructure in the area, to determine who, t the area can actually handle. if thea results of this study show that high density could not be sustained, we can adapt our vision. c, Some suggested that we not think about eiensity at any particular point along the corridor, but rather in Lhe context of the entire South County regional rtiarket, n Jeff Perlrnart cc; inrnented that the recommend adores in the reporL are ort the cutting cadge of planning, based on sound principles of Coniplete Streets. But it's also rourterintuitive, so it requires greater advocacy from visionaries and supporters (as in the case of rod ucing travel Ianes along US -1) - o Some suggested that when it comes to specific recommeniladons for more controversial projects that we just. find oriLwhether there are three votes of support on the City Commission. o tethers comriented that stressing how the strategies outlined in the report will ultimately make jobs more accessible near successful projects in other areas of Delray Rcachi--such as greater ccnn. cctivi ty between CongrTess Avenue and the SofA District—by creating more opportunities for people Lo lioth lure and work in Dclray Reach. Others suggested that Uremendous increases .in residential density don't Recessa rily have to occur its one site on C o ngress Avenu c, butrather should be approached by working to increase averall .ufii Ls available along the length of Lhe corridor over time. major job centers already exist along the Congress Avenu c corridor, and all increase inresidendaI dcnsitywill help suppor-tthosejoh centers. Thcre was a discussion about how technical specific recommendations in the report needed to bc, it' our first step is to get the Ci Ly Coin in ission to buy into the overall vision and concept. o J. Per Irnan commented that the Task Force already got the initial green light on the vision when we presented our midpoint check-in in July, therefore- offering ill ore specific suggestions for Toning would represent the Taslc Force's best thinking, c Others added that the City Commission appreciates detail, and the rcport may be better received if that is whatwe deliver.The presen a.tion could also be cauld he more about the vision, to complemonL the substance in the report. Tkie group generally agreed Ilia t changes to the Camp Plan can tale a long time, so we shctrild. advocate for moving forward immediately. City Manager Donald Cooper agreed that the Task Fnrce already received the iIli tial buy -in from the City Commission regarding developing Congress Avon ue as a mixed-4rse corridor. ile suggested LhaL the report offer specific roc ori m en d ati o ns fore next. steps to get things moving, specifically: Creating entitlern eats with a specified amount of time n Fixing zoning regulations o FsLahlishing a course of action There was a brief discussion about the rale of light industry along the corridor, The goal is to encourage this use, not eliminato it or prohibit its growth. The gruup commen ted that the private secLor is already responding to anticipated i nvestniertts that will carne as ei result of this report. o Saltwater Brewery owners are planning investments and the area is poised to become a SUCU.,ss story for lifestyle, genera Ling buzz and creating jabs. There was general discussion shout what the next steps should be after presenting Uo Lhe City Commission: n Ideally, the Commission will direct staff to sch.eciule the report for official IdnptiOil can the -agenda of a regular in seting (consent agenda for first meeting in April) a Once implementation is underway, the remaining work will rnosLly involve approvals from the, Planra.ing & Toning Board u General consensus in March and official approval In April gets this initiative in line WiLh planning For the FY2017 budget cycle. + Joan Goodrich discussed previous failed attempts at revitalising the Congress Avenue corridur and suggested that the group be ready to respond to why this initiative is poised to succeed—current efforts used public-privatc collaboration in analyzing corridor and creating now conceptual vision, and are Ied by the Office of Economic Development, which was not in place during previous efforts. There was a brie€`discussion about incentives for businesses along the corridor. Key Recommendations cails for erecting and expanding incentive tools and funding. D. Cooper commented thatPlanning &'Luning Director Tim Millings wilt need additional statfassistan ce to foIIow through on the changes to the Camp Plan, entitlerneni:s, and okher report recommendations. The need for more staff resources should be emphasized. o J. Perlman suggested that investing in a planning Consultant would offer a solid return iii helping tea mov(-things. forward. • A brief discussion about using bonds as a financial resource occurred. The City's gond rating and .1ow intoresL rates rnaIce bonds one option for funding Congress Avenue improvements. o Changes like land -use, entitlements, and ,government compliance for a Transit: Oriented Development won't nocess;� ri I require heavy funding. There was ad ditional discussion about emphasizing the need for upon space 1r) tate report o Next Steps #8 r u IIs For an analysis of public services, which should be modified Lo study both Bard and green services o J. Perlman offered that creating more parks reduces tax revenue and additional costs for the City. 13 u strategic spaces can create m oro vaIua hle private properties if the spaces are alive and active. o Same offered that the area may lend itself to more Iinear parks that weave along the corridor, and these may not be as expensive to operate. u Perhaps additional expertise in place making iswarranted. r3 Some want to push ror a green ay within one mile of the Tri -Rail sliation, as an investment. ng into lieti�er an asses on bktsi.ncss s c_ n l}cll fund a MPO suggests looki new E-4 canal greenway. • Open spaces should include art features.

Measures of TOD Readiness Homer -to meals u re read i nes Four Categories of Measures TD Readiness Policy Measures • Corn pelling Vision A clearly articulated adapted vision of tha scale, intensity, character, amenities, and lacele of development is a paramount first step. • Supportive Regulations Land use and land development regulations that control densities, land use mix, pedestrian -oriented design and parking strategies are the regulatory 'teeth' to implement the vision. • Predictable and Consistent Political & Development Context Cities with a consistent and receptive approach towards development and a predictable timeline for approval and permitting processes are more attractive to developers. . Affordable Housing Policies FoRcies to maintain a diverse housing stuck with workforce Dousing Increases access to transit and ridership potential. • Public Inve tment Capital program planning, Infrastructure, inv�slments, and related financial incentives ensure adequate c;apa.6ty for higher density development and demonstrate public scoter commitment. .,l -�= Market Measures Recent Development Activity Proposed, under construction, and new residential, mixed-use, and commercial development indicate developer interest. Redevelopment Potential The ease with which redevelopment can occur based on underutilized or vacant parcels, land uses, parcel size, and ownership; Real Estate 'Va l u s Measure market strength and the desire for corn pact development. • Financial Incentives for Development Mixed-use TCDD projects are typically more expensive to construct and may require financial incentives to bridge the gap in a project's pro -Forme. Physical 3 Transit Travel Shed Measures The number of jobs accessible by transit influences hbw desirable a station area is to potential new businesses or residents. • Transit Service & Infrastructure Areas with existing or funded transit service are more likely to attract deuelopm ent_ Tire type of transit service and the amenities at the station are also inf ueatial. * Block Size Smaller block sizes promote pedestrian scaled devieAopment and vwalhability. • Path Connectivity Physical barriers to connectivity inhibit pedestirlon and bigclist scocsa to transit, shopping, jobs. and services. Bicycle Comfort Accommodating bicyclists can errand transit stition catchment areas far beyond the typical pedestrian shod. Community Gathering Places Public parks, pi as, or squares can function as catalysts for devclopmont while enhancing the pedestri }n rcArn. Socia! Measures Change in Income Levels & Educational Attainment Increases in income and education levels indicate a growing interest in the neighborhood and the potential for capturing choice ridership. Diversity of Existing lyses A measure of whether daily errands can be made by walking as determined by Walk Score, • Civic or Educational lyses Civic, cultural and educational institutions can function as anchors for development and as destinations attracting people to the station area. Community Events& Branding Hosting community events can develop an identity for the area, celebrating its unique character and market the area as an attractive place, • Housing & Transportation Affordability Affordability of living in a location depends on the combined costs of housing and transportation, and captures the location -efficiency of the area.

Cooper City Manager FROM: Francine Ramaglia, Assistant City Manager Suzanne Fisher, Parks and Recreation Director Joan K. Goodrich, Economic Development Director Jack Warner, Chief Financial Officer DATE: March 1, 2016 SUBJECT: Proposed New Special Events Ordinance and PolicX CC: Delray Beach Special Events Task Force Overview Attached please find the proposed new Special Events Ordinance for your consideration along with the new proposed Special Events policy. The Special Events team has also developed new business processes, an Application Package and a Special Events Guidebook which will continue to be a work in progress through the pilot period - defined as the period of time leading up to the Policy's effective date of 10/1/2016. These documents and recommendations are the result of seven months of meetings and collaboration with the Special Events Task Force and stakeholders; piloting and testing new approaches; comparative benchmarking for special events; feedback from veteran City staff supporting special events; and the direction we received last June 2015 from the City Commission to: 1. Reduce the number of major events in and around Old School Square (OSS) and the Central Business District (CBD) 2. Allow no new events (other than those previously permitted for) in and around OSS and the CBD during the next 24 months due to development construction schedules. 3. Close Atlantic Avenue and Swinton Avenue only for the St. Patrick's Day Parade, Veteran's Day Parade, Holiday Parade and Delray Affair and when public safety requires street closings. 4. Allow food trucks only by City policy except for by special permit. S. Do not allow carnival -amusement rides on publicly owned property in and around OSS and the CBD area. 6. Develop new routes (in addition to current A1A route) for run -walk -bike events in other parts of the City. 7. Budget for all City produced events. 8. Obtain full cost recovery from event producers for all other events and require contracts and deposits for all non -City produced events. 9. Use a National Incident Management System (NIMS) command system for events as required. 3/1/2016 5:44 PM 2 We thank everyone for their contributions during Phase II of this project and are pleased to recognize the team's key accomplishments and notable actions on pages 10 and 11. Why a New Ordinance, Policy and Procedures Are Needed Special events touch and impact nearly every City function and department, and for years, much of the City's support was provided informally, in silos and not well documented. As a result, it has been extremely difficult to determine the City's 'full' investment with past special events. The intent of the new ordinance is to redefine special events, clarify when a special event permit will be required and ensure special events will not cause a negative impact on the general health, safety and welfare of the citizens, businesses and guests of the City. The new proposed Special Events Policy and corresponding business processes seek to: ■ Preserve the City's character while protecting the health, safety and welfare of the citizens and guests of this city. ■ Ensure the City of Delray Beach will have adequate advance notice of a proposed special event and the cooperation of the producer(s) to adequately plan City services (such as security, sanitation, parking, and traffic control) that may be required for such an event. ■ Establish a straightforward and accountable process for event producers enabling the City and other public agencies to manage these events in a cost-effective and well -coordinated way. ■ Ensure that the City's infrastructure and facilities including, but not limited to, beaches, parks, and public rights-of-way are protected and conserved by limiting the number and types of events held in these areas. ■ Establish procedures to ensure that the City is fully compensated by event producers for their use of City resources. Task Force and Stakeholder Support for New Ways and Approaches to Special Events We recently met with the Special Events Task Force meeting on February 10, 2016 and have continued to meet with partners, event producers and other stakeholders to discuss the proposed new ordinance, policy, recommendations and next steps. ■ Presented to DBMC Board on February 17, 2016 ■ Discussed with Old School Square in February, 2016 ■ Met with Chamber Management and Festival Management Group on February 23, 2016 It's important to note that while we have solid consensus for moving forward with these items, there is not complete consensus for all policy items and staff recommendations. To ensure our partners' points of view are shared, we have attached written sentiments received to date - see page 8. We have also received other verbal feedback from: Todd L'Herrou - 'Concerned about creating any new City jobs for the proposed Special Events Office and suggests replacing the word 'Office' with 'Division.' He also believes it is important to clarify that the purpose of the new business unit is to create greater functionality and accountability both internally and externally to the City. 3/1/2016 5:44 PM 3 Special Events Definition and Event Types for Permitting We have redefined special events to be: "Any planned meeting, activity, gathering, or group of persons having a common purpose, design, or goal, and any other similar event, that is to occur on City -owned or controlled property or that overtly impacts the municipality requiring support of city staff, financial, and /or other resources. Events include but are not limited to: a festival, fundraiser, theatrical exhibition, concert/musical performance, public show and/or entertainment, runs, walks, or races, parades, sporting events, and transient amusements or other exhibition and/or outdoor gatherings." Event Types and Approval Levels for Special Events Permits We are recommending four event type classifications and the following approval authority for special event permitting: Central Point of Contact Issues Special Events Permits Approves All Existing Events; new Minor and Intermediate Events and Run - Walk -Bike Events Approves Special Event Waivers Maintains Permitting Calendar SEO Chairs SETAC Serves as an Advisory Board to SEO Makes Conditional Approval: Denial. Rescheduling or Relocating of Special Events Recommendatiors to SEO Special Event Policy Approval and Revisions Special Event Permit and Waiver Appeals Special Event Ordinance Approval Special Event New Majors Approval V1/2016 3.25 PM Major Intermediate Minor Run -Walk -Bike Duration 1 day or more 1 day or more 1 day or less 1 day or less Cost of > $ 20,000 $3,000 - $20,000 < $3,000 Ci Services Attendance > than 10,000 N/A N/A Not applicable Road Closure Yes No No Yes, pre -defined route Central Point of Contact Issues Special Events Permits Approves All Existing Events; new Minor and Intermediate Events and Run - Walk -Bike Events Approves Special Event Waivers Maintains Permitting Calendar SEO Chairs SETAC Serves as an Advisory Board to SEO Makes Conditional Approval: Denial. Rescheduling or Relocating of Special Events Recommendatiors to SEO Special Event Policy Approval and Revisions Special Event Permit and Waiver Appeals Special Event Ordinance Approval Special Event New Majors Approval V1/2016 3.25 PM 3/1/2016 5:44 PM 4 New Special Events Office The proposed new City of Delray Beach Special Events Office (SEO) will serve as the single point of contact between city departments, event producers, and members of the community as it oversees organized events through the coordination of enterprise -wide functions. All special events produced within the City will require the issuance of a permit through the SEC. The SEO shall approve all special events, provided that they meet the requirements of the Special Events policy (attached). In the case of a new special event, the SEO shall only be allowed to approve Minor and Intermediate special events. It is recommended that the City Commission retain approval authority for all new Major special events above and beyond what is being proposed in the new policy. Additionally, SEO may approve waivers associated with the special event, provided the waiver does not extend beyond the time period for the special event.

It will meet bi-weekly as an open meeting and will be comprised, at minimum of representatives from the following departments and agencies: Emergency Management, Parks and Recreation, Environmental Services, Fire, Police, Planning, Zoning & Building, Community Improvement, Risk Management, and any other agency, department or organization necessary to the coordination of specific events. Fees and Charges As discussed with the partners and stakeholders, it is the City's intention to recover 100% of the costs incurred by supporting special events including staffing, equipment and use of City assets as determined by the Chief Financial Officer. All event producers will be required to enter into an event contract with the City and to pay a deposit. A single invoice will be issued for each event unless additional City services -equipment are utilized after the invoice has been processed. While payment terms and deposit requirements are at the discretion of the CFO, failure to pay timely could result in an event's cancellation or denial of future events. It is anticipated that existing event producer's may see a doubling of City costs in the first year of implementation. Other Key Recommendations Strategic Recommendations 1. Create and fund Special Events Office (SEO) in the Parks and Recreation Department and transfer necessary staff to be determined through FY 2017 budget process. 2. Develop a "Campus Management" agreement with Old School Square including centralized booking of all City properties in and around the Square, including the "Great Lawn" and other adjacent properties. 3. Restructure and clarify existing agreement W/ DBMC & establish as "preferred provider" of FY 2017 "hometown" events and formalize separate event producer agreement(s) by 3Q FY 2016. 4. Set City "brand" with partner agencies/community and align -design Special Events around it ("what kind of events do we want & what are no longer a fit"). S. Develop "key measures" and performance rating system for events, including more formalized collection and use of data such as daily attendance, local room nights etal. Policy Recommendations 6. Revise attendance metric for'Major' event from 5,000 to 10,000 based on NIMS standards. 7. Establish Special Events Technical Advisory Committee managed and chaired by SEO. 8. Eliminate requirement for Business Tax Receipts (BTR) for special event vendors and replace with new vendor permit unless subject vendor has City issued BTR. 9. Adjust fees and charges annually to reflect City costs. 10. Clarify language associated with general assemblies in the municipal code. 3/1/2016 5:44 PM 6 Operational Recommendations 11. Consider investing in standardized event infrastructure (i.e. light towers, signage, barricades, bollards) 12. Govern City produced events by SOP (similar to procedures encompassed by SE policy) and monitor through the new SE permitting system. 13. Add Community Programs (i.e. weekly concerts, farmer's markets) to special use permit. 14. Report all special use or other permits associated with assemblies to the new SEO and add to master permitting calendar. Next Steps Following the approval of the new Special Events ordinance by the City Commission and the updated Special Events policy by the City Manager, we anticipate proceeding with the following tasks: NERIM .� Task Lead Timing 1.

Overall the outline is long overdue and well done and captured much of the groups input during the process. One of the main areas of concern for me is the development of the event criteria outlining what is a "quality" event for Delray Beach or what is the quality expectation for the city or better yet the Downtown "venue", • I would like to ensure that the rule is put in place that ensures that all event producers are not to block store fronts unless they have written permission. • Special Event Office and review team: I would like to include a venue specialist on the team such as the Downtown Development Authority as well as industry experts. • Atlantic Ave Event Lists: Please consider keeping the Howard Alan Festival of the Arts on Atlantic Ave. This event was brought to Delray to bring people to town. It continues to add a huge economic impact to the downtown and loved by many • Savor the Avenue- this event has taken measures to change dates to lessen the impact to the Downtown and hopefully increase business on an off night. Criteria, quality and no store fronts covered are very important. Thank you for your support. Feel free to call if you have questions! From Nancy Stewart- Franczak - Festival Management Group Remarks on Event Policy Inclusions Requested/ Defined: • Events outside of CBD exempt from policy regarding 1 major event per month, etc. • Suggest Pre & Post event inspection with code enforcement and parks maintenance! (and take photos) • Suggest "Behind the Scenes" tour be conducted for all major events • Copy of final outline email to committee prior to March 15th Commission meeting ahead of time to allow final review and comments • Proposed Vendor business license/tax: Can agree with a set fee based on total number of exhibitors (i.e. 0 - 50; 51- 100; 101 - 200, etc.) • Do NOT agree with proposed requirement to supply Vendor, sponsor or supplier lists - they are proprietary. They are our most valuable assets and have been developing for over 20 years. • Notification of SETAC meetings so we can attend. • Timeline for application process (i.e. 1 - 15 days response upon receipt of application in parks & rec; 1- 15 days response upon review of SETAC; etc., etc) 3/1/2016 5:44 PM 9 From Howard Alan - Delray Festival of the Arts - February 26, 2016 to Laura Simon, DDA Dear Laura: I would love to take this opportunity to thank The DDA and the City of Delray Beach for hosting us for the past 28 years for the award winning "Downtown Delray Beach Festival of the Arts" The event began 28 years ago in the parking lot of The Atlantic Plaza, and today has grown up to be one of the top rated fine art fairs in the US spanning Atlantic Avenue from US 1 over the Intracoastal Bridge to the Marriott hotel.The event draws over 100,000 people annually. Here are some interesting facts. • Our studies have shown that the average visitor spends $30. in Downtown Delray on non art related purchases (food and merchandize) which equates to $3,000,000 additional dollars coming into the downtown economy for the shops, restaurants and hotels in the weekend. (daytime traffic) • Not one store front is blocked during this event, every business on the street gets full exposure • The merchants in downtown love the event, Our booths do not begin until the east side of US 1 and we create major daytime pedestrian traffic. This high end event generates great exposure for all the merchants on the east side of the bridge. • The event is promoted on a national basis, we have art show junkies that make a weekend out of the event." First class art fair, first class lodging, first class shops and dining". We fill all the hotel rooms in the area. • The event is contributor of funds to the DDA raised from the event, and is self funding, we do not ask the city or the DDA to cover any expenditures for the event. • The show is ranked as one of the top art festivals in the US. Thanks for this great opportunity and we look forward to many more successful art affairs in your wonderful city. . •f' $7UR� 8i1.1Fii1 3/1/2016 5:44 PM 10 Special Events Team Key Accomplishments and Notable Actions (June 2015 - Present) Status of June 2015 "Events Are Great" Report Recommendations and Next Steps New Business Process Recommendations Status 1.
