40 ITEMS FOR DISCUSSION:
PERMITTING AS A CG-1 CONDITIONAL USE THE SALE OF BEER AND WINE FOR
ON- PREMISE CONSUMPTION AT "PIZZARAMA" LOCATED WITHIN LOEHMANN'S PLAZA
AT 12 PGA BOULEVARD
Mr. Alan Rosenfeld, owner of "Pizzarama" restaurant, was in attendance
to address the Council pursuant to his request for a conditional use
and variance to the distance requirements of 7501, for the sale of
beer and wine, on premise at his restaurant.
Mr. Rosenfeld informed the Council at the Public Hearing held by the
City's Planning and Zoning Commission on his request for the conditional
use, a motion was adopted to deny his peition due mainly to the
parking situation, i.e, not being enough.
During the discussion, the members of the Council were an agreement
that since the restaurant was already approved, beer and wine would
be incidental to the use, therefore, parking would not be a problem.
• At the Regular Meeting of February 17, 1983, the Council will consider
for adoption a resolution granting the conditional use and variance
for the Pizzarama Restaurant, to be located in the Loenmann's Plaza.
ANNEXATION OF A .5 -ACRE PARCEL OF LAND WITH CG -1 ZONING ON THE NORTH
IDE 0'r PCA BOULEVARD, WEST OF USIA
Attorney Alan Ciklin, representing Dr. Joe Giruato and Mr. Jim
Williams of South Florida Banks, Contract Purchasers, was in attendance
to address the Council regarding the proposed annexation of two
contiguous parcels of land, zoned ResidentLal in the County, into the
City, to allow them to construct a branch bank and a veterir,airy clinic.
Attorney Ciklin stated the property is located on the north side of
PGA Boulevard, west of US #1, between Sisrayne Federal Savings and Loan
and the Chamber of Commerce property.
Attorney Ciklin went on to say that originally, they appeared before
the County, however, the setbacks in the County are greater than those
in the City, and would not enable them to develop their buildings, as
both parcels are leas than one acre.
Fheir main rea;;on of appearing before the Council was to get their
informal recommendations as to whether the Council felt these two

rightfully belong in Falm Beach Gardens and whether these two particular
uses, a brancn bank and a small veterinary c'-Lnic, located next to the
Chamber of Commerce were appropriate uses.
Attorney Caklin presented conceptual plans for the two parcels and
stated they feel these lots are "non - conforming ", as both parcels
together total approximately 26,700 sq. ft.
During their discussion, it was the consensus of the Council, that
they would like to see these two parcels annexed into the City; however,
several concerns were voiced by them regarding the intensity of the
two parcels, the ingress ano egress onto the parcels and what zoning
classification they should come under.
Councilman Martino suggested annexing the property into the City and
placing it in a "holding zone" and through good planning make it a
useable piece of property, that woulu cr.sfzt the petitioner and the
City. The Petitioners were in agreement to meeting with the City
Manager and City Attorney to work out the details and planning of this
• property, and once this is done, submit a formal application to the
City for annexation.
