The meeting was called to order at 1:15 p.m.
The meeting focus was directed toward City of Palm Beach Gardens Memorandums: from
Richard Marrero to Marty Minor, dated November 14, 2006 and City of Palm Beach Gardens
Memo to File, dated November 14, 2006.
Aries Page noted the access easement must be named if the building owner will use a name other
than "Square ", as noted for adjoining property.
Julius Barone noted his concerns about safety and security during the construction phase and
after the structure is occupied. His concerns include proper security lighting and a security guard
stationed at the construction site. He stated the applicant must do what is necessary to secure the
sight at all times. Officer Barone stated the area is to be shielded from the general public and the
proper alarm systems in place when construction commences. He requested the applicant submit
a Security Management Program for the project as soon as possible.
Ray Caranci and Mark Hendrickson led the discussion on landscaping /vegetation issues. Proper
landscaping must be around the entrance sign site and noted on the final plans which will be
submitted at a later date. The preliminary plans do not include the following information which
must be submitted to the City; plan for removal /control of existing vegetation, irrigation plan,
plan for all landscaping which includes items such as sod, foundation landscaping, landscaping
the islands, palm trees, oak trees and the buffer area.
Richard Marrero led the discussion on the signage issues, details for the monument and wall
mounted sign for the structure need to be submitted. The City suggested a waiver for the
monument and wall mounted sign could be possible and there is not a proposal for an off -site
sign at this time.
Judy Dye commented that the Non - Certification items as stated in memo need to be addressed.
Judy and others expressed their comments and concerns regarding the following issues;
clearance for trucks loading, unloading versus the landscaping, a clearance of thirteen and one
half feet should be maintained between the trucks and the trees. The City will go on site to check
for proper clearance. The berm placement is in question and needs to be noted on the plans. The
representative for the project was asked to include the oak trees in the proper placement of the
berm. The City officials reminded all present a 3 -to -1 slope is standard and in the City code.
Richard Marrero stated that the ratio of square footage for medical versus professional is not an
issue due to traffic concurrency. It was discussed and all agreed a public workshop meeting with
surrounding property owners should take place and December 12 was suggested as a date and
will be considered. Notices will be sent to surrounding property owners at the proper time. It was
determined that the final plans for the project are not required for the workshop. It was also noted
that this property is land - locked and provides unique challenges to the City code.
All participants agreed to a January target date for the hearing.
Having no further business, the meeting was adjourned at 2:45 p.m.

Prior to final approval, Staff would appreciate the ability to salvage any remaining
trees or palms.
Non - Certification Items

MEMORANDUM
TO: Richard Marrero, Principal Planner DATE: October 16, 2006
APPROVED:
FROM: Scott Fetterman, Deputy Chief<-
RE: PPUD- 06 -09- 000010: Monet Office Building
Fire Rescue has reviewed the above referenced PUD petition and has the
following comments and concerns:
• Fire Rescue can not turn around in the south parking area. Fire
Rescue requires a 45'outside radius while maintaining a 20' inside
radius to turn around. The applicant is only providing 85' between
the rows of parking which is not sufficient. The minimum would
be 90' based on the 45' radius.
• The engineering plan is not consistent with the site plan in
reference to the proposed water distribution. The applicant needs
to indicate which plan is accurate for review.
Thank you for your assistance and consideration in this matter. Please
contact me if you have any questions.

RE: Monet Office Building
Dear Mr. Marrero:
We offer the following comments on your transmittal dated September 15, 2006 concerning the referenced
project.
1. The applicant needs to revise the site plan and landscape plans to clearly depict the existing 8"
gravity sewer line running adjacent to the north and west property lines as well as the Seacoast
easement (ORB 5880 Pg 1756) and the utility easement (ORB 3647 Pg 810).
2. The applicant needs to revise the survey of the property to properly depict the Seacoast easement
(ORB 5880 Pg 1756) and the utility easement (ORB 3647 Pg 810).
3. The applicant needs to address fire flow requirements for the project.
4. The applicant needs to revise the landscape plans so that the location of proposed water and sewer
lines and respective easements correspond to the location shown on the preliminary engineering
plans.
Please call if you require additional information.
Sincerely,
