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 8200
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, architectural elevations and signage.
In October of 1990, with the Citywide rezoning and adoption of
the LDR'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; CBD 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.
