Memo to File
To: Stephen Mayer, Sr. Planner
Through: Mark Hendrickson, City Forester
From: Ray Caranci, Forestry Technician
Subject: PPUD- 07 -08 -18 Frenchman's Crossing
Date: September 26, 2007
I have reviewed the Land Development Regulations for the above referenced petition and
provide the following comments for the DRC:
Certification Items
1. In accordance with Section 78 -305 of the LDR, landscape plans should clearly
delineate and key landscape areas, landscape materials, and square footage of
open space and impervious areas. The applicant shall clarify what areas were used
in the calculation of required open space. The applicant shall provide
documentation showing what areas were designated as open space for the
property in CAD format on CD ROM. The CAD file will contain the DWG, DXF,
and DGN file extensions in version 2004 or earlier. The CAD file shall contain a
separate layer for each of the following categories: property boundary, impervious
areas, pervious areas, and areas designated as open space. Open space shall
further be separated into lake tracts, preserve areas, perimeter buffers, easements,
recreation area, and open space used in the calculation of required landscape
points. Each layer shall be clearly labeled using the categories listed above. All
drawings shall be defined as closed polygons. Applicant shall also include a plan
sheet showing the CAD layer drawings.
2. In accordance with Section 78- 320(a) (4) b. of the LDR, the foundation planting
area for a building of two or more stories shall not be less than 30 percent of the
height of the adjacent wall. The proposed building height would require
foundation plantings a minimum width. Please include elevations showing the
building fagade heights to calculate the widths required.
3. In accordance with section 78- 320(a) (4) c. of the LDR, non residential buildings
shall have at least one shade tree or palm cluster installed for each 30 linear feet,
or fraction thereof, of fagade width. Trees and palms shall be of an installed size
relating to the height of the adjacent wall or facade, as indicated in Table 30.
Please revise the landscape plan to include the required number of trees or palm
clusters, meeting the minimum height requirement of 22 -28 feet for palms, and 18
feet for trees for the proposed ALF building.
4. In accordance with section 78- 320(a) (4) c. of the LDR, non residential buildings
shall have at least one shade tree or palm cluster installed for each 30 linear feet,
or fraction thereof, of fagade width. Trees and palms shall be of an installed size
relating to the height of the adjacent wall or fagade, as indicated in Table 30. A
waiver has been requested for the Publix building to be one story building, but be
designed to look like a 2 story building. Trees and palms need to fulfill the 2 story
fagade requirements.
5. The dumpster enclosure and generator to the west of the ALF building need to be
screened with landscaping. Please revise and identify the area next to these areas.
6. In accordance with section 78 -285 of the LDR, monument signs are required to
have landscaping on the sides equal to the height of the sign. The area east of the
sign is only 9 feet to the sidewalk. Please revise the plan to show the minimum 10
feet of landscaped area.
7. There is a 20 foot opening labeled as a utility easement to the east of the Publix
building that allows a view from the road directly into the service area at the rear
of the building. Please revise to provide landscaping to screen the service area.
8. The sod area calculations and point calculations are missing from the plant list.
Please revise to include this information, and show that the sod percentage is 40
percent or less of the total area for landscape points.
Also, please understand that additional information may be requested, and staff may have
additional comments as the review process continues.

Memo to File
From: Stephen Mayer, Sr. Planner
Subject: PUD -07 -08 -018— Frenchman's Crossing — Corner of Hood Road and Alternate
AIA
Date: September 26, 2007
I have reviewed the Land Development Regulations for the above - referenced application
and provide the following comments:
Certification Issues:
1. In accordance with Section 78 -305 of the LDR, landscape plans should clearly
delineate and key landscape areas, landscape materials, and square footage of
open space and impervious areas. The applicant has not submitted an area
calculations plan or CAD file clarifying what areas were used in the calculation
of required open space. The applicant shall provide documentation showing
what areas were designated as open space for the property in CAD format on
CD ROM. The CAD file will contain the DWG, DXF, DGN file extensions in
version 2004 or earlier. The CAD file shall contain a separate layer for each of
the following categories: property boundary, impervious areas, pervious areas,
and areas designated as open space. Open space shall be further separated into
lake tracts, preserve areas, perimeter buffers, easements, recreation area, and
open space used in the calculation of required landscape points. Each layer shall
be clearly labeled using the categories listed above. All drawings shall be
defined as closed polygons.
2. In accordance with Section 78 -324 of the LDR, please provide plans for the
required roadway beautification of Alternate A I A and Hood Road.
3. Please clarify the type of tenant wall signs proposed. Page 6 of the sign location
packet indicates that the tenant signs will be green letters on white vinyl. Based
on the elevations, staff was under the impression that the tenant signs were
channel letter signs.
4. Pursuant to Section 78 -285, Table 24, the monument sign may only be 15 feet
in width and 60 square feet in area. The signage area for the overall
development is measured at 103 square feet and the overall signage width is 34
feet. The applicant must conform to those requirements, or request a waiver
from the City Code. Staff may be in support of a waiver, given the amenity of
the wall fountain, however, staff notes that the monument sign could have more
visual interest and be more consistent with the Public building with color
accenting to match the proposed architecture and contouring of the vertical
shape (height).
5. Please indicate whether the monument signs are single or double- sided. Staff
notes that if either of the monument sign is double sided, the applicant must
request a waiver to Section 78 -285, Table 24.
6. Staff notes that there are two separate waiver requests for additional tenant signs
per building. The applicant must add a waiver request to the waiver request
table for the additional tenant sign for the Sunrise Assisted Living building.
7. In accordance with Section 78- 344(1)(2), the applicant must provide additional
open space at a ratio of 1.5 square feet for each square feet of paved parking
area that is reduced. The applicant is proposing parking stalls that are 18.5 by
9.5, which is a reduction of 9.25 square feet per parking space. The applicant
shall illustrate on the site data that the 2,229.25 square feet of additional open
space is accounted for.
8. The applicant shall provide the required floor and roof plans and elevations for
the Sunrise Assisted Living building.
9. The applicant shall indicate the letter height of each tenant signs on all
elevations.
Non - Certification Issues:
10. The applicant shall provide a cross - section of the proposed corridor buffer
adjacent to Hood Road. The drawings shall accurately reflect elevation changes,
buildings, sidewalk, landscaping, and the location of the perimeter berm.
11. Screening for the FPL ground mounted transformer located adjacent to Hood
Road shall follow the FPL guidelines for Protective Barrier and Planting
Clearances for Pad Mount Transformers and Switches.
12. Staff suggests adding a covered amenity in lieu of, or in addition to the benches
proposed east of the Assisted Living Facility. Staff believes the potential for
pedestrian activity near the water control feature and retention area are not
being fully realized.
13. I anticipate a condition of approval that would require the applicant to work
with FEC in the removal of all prohibited and invasive non - native plants from
railroad ROW.
14. I anticipate that the City will not support a waiver to the City's adopted
Comprehensive Plan, requiring at least 51% of the gross square footage of the
neighborhood commercial contained in a building having a two story character
and actual two -story space. Staff finds that Publix has an opportunity to utilize a
portion of the two -story space above the store for their own administrative
offices, pharmacy or similar ancillary uses to meet the requirement of the Mixed
Use Land Use designation. If the Applicant desires the Mixed Use designation,
staff strongly encourages using all of the concepts of Mixed Use.
15. The purpose of pedestrian linkages is to also provide connectivity to adjacent
uses. Please explain in the narrative the approach of not providing a direct
pedestrian connection to the adjacent residential neighborhoods and whether the
applicant has approached the Evergrene POA concerning whether they would
be in support of a pedestrian cross connection.
Also, please understand that additional information may be requested, and staff
may have additional comments as the review process continues.

3. Development Potential
a. The maximum allowed for the existing zoning designation Residential Low.
The subject property has a Palm Beach County Future Land Use
designation of Medium Residential 5 (maximum five dwelling units per
acre). In accordance with Table 2.1 -1 of the Future Land Use Element of
the Palm Beach County Comprehensive Plan, the subject site meets the
minimum size of five acres to be developed as a Planned Development.
Therefore, the +/- 10.0 -acre site could be developed with 50 dwelling units.
b. The maximum allowable development under the proposed designation for
the site.
The proposed Future Land Use Plan designation for the +1- -10.0 -acre site is
Mixed Use (MXD). The proposed zoning designation for the +/ -10.0 -acre
property is Mixed Use Development (MAD) with a Planned Unit
Development (PUD) overlay.
Based upon the maximum land allocation and maximum lot coverage
depicted in Policy 1.1.1.3,E of the City's Comprehensive Plan (see Item 3B
below), the maximum development potential would be 365,904 square feet
Neighborhood Commercial, 182,952 square feet Employment Center, and
96 multifamily residential units. The applicant reserves the right to have
less than the above at the time of site plan approval.
c. A description of the proposed use and information on its compatibility with
the surrounding area.
The applicant intends to develop a mixed -use development, which will
incorporate residential, retail and office uses.
To the north and west of the subject property is Evergrene PUD, which has
a zoning designation of Planned Community District Overlay (PCD) and a
Future Land Use designation of Residential Medium (RM). The proposed
mixed -use development will be designed in such a manner that it is
consistent with the character of the adjacent development.
To the south, on the opposite side of Hood Road, is the Seacoast Utility
Authority Water Treatment Plant, which has a zoning designation of
Public /Institutional (P 11) and a Future Land Use designation of Public (P).
The required parkway buffer on the south side of the subject property
coupled with the Hood Road right -of -way will allow.for a development that
is consistent with the existing water treatment plant.

To the east of the subject property, on the opposite side of Alternate A -I -A,
is Frenchman's Reserve PUD, which has a zoning designation of Planned
Development Area (PDA) and a Future Land Use designation of
Residential Low (RL). The proposed mixed -use development will be
designed in such a manner that it is consistent with the character of the
adjacent development.
4. Justification Statement
Proiect Statement
The proposed amendment site is located at the northwest corner of Hood
Road and Alternate A -I -A. The subject property currently has a Palm Beach
County Land Use designation of Medium Residential S (up to S dwelling
units per acre, refer to attachment F). The applicant is requesting a Mixed
Use (MXD) Future Land Use designation, concurrent with an Annexation
application.
The parcel has frontage along Hood Road and is bounded on the east
property line by the F.E.C. railroad and the EPB -3 canal. The Palm Beach
Gardens Comprehensive Plan states the following minimum criteria .for
sites designated as Mixed Use developments.
1. An MXD shall be developed as a Planned Community District or a
Planned Unit Development. However, land development regulations
adopted to implement this Comprehensive Plan shall maintain mixed —
use supplemental regulations to provide further criteria for the
development of sites with MXD Future Land Use designations,
including parking requirements, permitted uses, setbacks and other
considerations.
The developer shall abide by the land development regulations for
Planned Unit Development as part of the site plan approval process.
2. MXDs shall have frontage on at least one arterial. The City Conceptual
Thoroughfare Plan shall be accommodated to expand the roadway
network through the provision of new local streets, which serve new
neighborhoods in the City's developing areas.
The subject property has frontage on one arterial - Hood Road.
3. MXDs shall include a minimum of two (2) of the other Future Land
Use Categories described in this element. Residential must be one of
these uses, unless it is determined by the City Council that the proposed
development meets the criteria below established to waive the
residential requirement. No single use may comprise more than 60% of
the area. Recognizing that mixed use projects have varying
characteristics, intensity measures are indicated below which provide

flexibility in terms of minimum and maximum land allocations. These
intensity measures apply only within MXD projects. The City Council
may waive the maximum nonresidential height limit for employment
center buildings located at the intersection of two arterials.
The proposed amendment site contains three of the Future Land Use
categories described in the Future Land Use Element: Recreation /Open
Space, Residential High, and Commercial. Of these categories, none are
in excess of the 60% threshold requirement.

5. A description of the availability of and demand on public facilities,
indicating the proposal's impact on established level of service standards:
sanitary sewer, potable water, traffic circulation, solid waste, drainage,
recreation and open space. (NOTE: The most dense or intensive use
allowed under the land use category should be analyzed for its impact on
facilities and services.)
The availability of and demand on public facilities has been analyzed based
on the "maximum allowable development" as referenced in Table 3B in
Question 4 above. The projected demand based upon existing density
assumes the permitted Planned Unit Development density of 5 dwelling
units per acre.
Traffic Circulation
Land Design South Traffic Division has analyzed traffic circulation. The
analysis was has been included with this application. Per the traffic
analysis the existing land use generates 283 gross daily trips, the proposed

Commercial
The proposed development for the subject property is as follows:
• 41,600 square feet Commercial
The applicant based their data on the proposed development whereas the
potential development of this parcel permits four story commercial
building. Due to variability of the land use for the MXD use designation
requested, we used the applicant's building size to estimate the total
required service capacity.
➢ 41,600 sq ft x 4 stories = 166,400 sq ft Commercial
Residential
• 84 dwelling units - Residential
The applicant used their three story building to estimate the total required
service capacity for the project. However, four (4) stories are permitted by
the comprehensive plan for the residential MXD use designation.
Therefore, we again used their building size and prorated it to show the
units for a four story building. It is noted that this is an estimate and does
not necessarily equate to the total maximum developable for this use, due
to the variables permitted by this land use classification.
