Martinez, City Manager FROM: Peter T. Bergel, Fire Chief RE: Awarding of Bid for Refurbished ngine Background Fire Rescue's Capital Improvement Plan for 2000 /2001 includes the refurbishment of Engine 64. This engine, originally manufactured in 1987, is an existing piece of our fleet and is maintained as spare equipment in the event of breakdowns or scheduled maintenance. Staff believes that this purchase should be awarded no later than February 18, 2000 in order for delivery, setup and testing to be complete by November 2000. Fire Rescue is proposing to piggyback a prior bid award by Pierce Manufacturing, Inc. (copy enclosed) for the purchase of this engine. The past two purchases of this type have been awarded prior to the budget year in which the vehicle is funded due to the extended time to deliver such a piece of equipment. Staff is proposing to once again award the bid in advance to the budget year in which it is funded. Discussion Staff has evaluated the Pierce Bid (enclosed) and determined that this particular engine will best meet the needs of our department at this time. This particular bid is laid out and constructed identically to three of our existing engines. Purchasing off of this bid will ensure that we continue to maintain standardization of equipment from station to station. The bid price for this piece of equipment is $259,752.00, which is a lower cost than the latest refurb cost of $259,787.00. This purchase would be made out of Account # 01- 1230 - 522.6410 and the funding source will be ad- valorem taxes. I have presented this information and process to Kent Olson and he is in agreement with this purchase. The delivery time for this vehicle is estimated to be 180 -240 days -,VA k Recommendation Staff recommends award of bid for the purchase of a refurbished fire engine to Pierce Manufacturing, Inc. by "piggy backing" off the Palm Beach Gardens Bid in the amount of $259,752.00 and authority to execute an agreement for same. enc. cc: file ::q% JAN -12 -2000 15:08 TEN -6 FIRE EQUIPMENT 841 756 2598 P.01/02 IN SERVICE TO SERVE YOU January 12, 2000 FIRE EQUIPMENT INC.

Staff has determined that seven six -foot long benches with backs, and two six-foot long benches without backs are needed to provide adequate sitting places for visitors to the new complex. Staff has also determined that eight trash receptacles should be disbursed throughout the complex to allow visitors opportunities to properly dispose trash. DISCUSSION: Since Palm Beach County has an existing contract (#990054) with Rep Services, Inc., of Longwood, Florida, which permits the purchasing of assorted facility amenities common to parks and playgrounds, staff is of the opinion that Rep Services, Inc., of Longwood, Florida will fulfill the needs and budgetary requirements for purchasing of these facility amenities. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the council authorize the City to "piggyback" the Palm Beach County contract with Rep Services, Inc., of Longwood, Florida, ( #990054) in the amount of $13,171.41 for the purchase of the benches and trash cans needed for the new City Hall Complex.

The intent of the amendments is to clarify and strengthen the current regulations, which were adopted 12 years ago in 1987 and amended in 1995. 8 6 The following is a list of the significant amendments that are proposed: 1. Page 2. Section 98 -1, Purpose and intent. The amendments clarify that the purpose and intent is to provide standards for installation and maintenance of all landscaped areas. 2. Page 3. Section 98 -2, Penalty. The amendments indicate the penalties for violations, as allowed by state law, and what constitutes a separate violation. 3. Page 4. Section 98 -5, Development Application. The amendments to this section enhance the application requirements for landscape plans. This section allows for the submission of an Alternate Landscape Improvement Plan that would allow flexibility if the City Council determines that an alternative landscape plan is an improvement over a plan that complies with City regulations. 4. Page 9. Section 98 -6, Construction Plan Review. This new section indicates that landscape plans submitted for building permits shall indicate all existing and proposed utilities and easements. 5. Page 10. Section 98 -7, Administrative Approval. The amendments clarify what administrative approvals staff may grant pertaining to landscaping and vegetation protection. 6. Page 13. Section 98 -36, Board of Zoning Appeals. This section has been revised to indicate that the Board of Zoning Appeals shall act upon variance applications regarding the landscaping regulations. 7. Page 15. Sections 98 -66, Minimum landscape requirements for nonresidential development. The amendments clarify and strengthen the landscaping and open space requirements for nonresidential projects. 8. Page 19. Section 98 -67, Minimum landscape requirements for residential development. The amendments clarify the landscape requirements for residential projects and require protection or relocation of existing trees. 9. Page 20. Section 98 -68, Parking areas. The amendments add a requirement that a landscape island is required for every nine parking spaces in a row. 10. Page 22. Section 98 -69, Preserve areas. The amendments require a fire safety zone of 10 feet between structures and preserve areas. 2 mmpp"8 7 11. Page 23. Section 98 -71, Prohibited plants and invasive nonnative plants. The amendments clarify that certain prohibited plants shall not be planted anywhere in the City and that certain invasive, non - native plants shall be removed during the development process. 12. Page 24. Section 98 -72, Minimum landscape buffer and planting requirements. This section has been amended to require wider landscape buffers next to I -95 and the Florida Turnpike, and to require foundation landscaping next to one -story buildings and multi -story buildings. 13. Page 28. Section 98 -73, Landscaping in public road right -of -way. This new section requires developers to install landscaping and related improvements in the right -of -way, in conjunction with development of an abutting parcel of land. Landscaping in the right -of -way has previously been required as a condition of approval. 14. Page 28. Section 98 -102, Exemptions. The amendments relocate the regulations for clearcutting trees into a separate section. 15. Page 29. Section 98- 103,Tree and plant installation. The amendments include a requirement for root barriers for street trees planted within 15 feet of utilities and sidewalks. 16. Page 32. Section 98 -105, Maintenance. The amendments clarify the maintenance requirements for landscaping. 17. Page 34. Section 98 -137, Nonconforming landscaping areas. The amendments clarify the minimum landscaping requirements for properties that do not meet the landscaping requirements, such as areas that are annexed into the City. These proposed amendments are based on staff's experience working with the existing regulations and on comments received by the City's consultant, Duncan Associates, who has interviewed representatives of the community and developers regarding the City's land development regulations. A summary of the person interviewed is attached and labeled "KEY PERSON" INTERVIEWS. Comments on the proposed regulation were also received from landscape architects, developers and the Seacoast Utility Authority. PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION: Comments from the Planning and Zoning Commission regarding these amendments included the following: 3 M In w8 8 1. Developers should have flexibility in preparing landscape plans that comply with City regulations. 2. In subsection 98- 72(e), foundation landscaping may not be appropriate everywhere alongside a building. Staff should consider reducing the requirement for foundation landscaping along the full width of the fagade to 75 percent, and allow a percentage of the foundation landscaping to be covered by a roof overhang. In August 1999, the Planning and Zoning Commission voted to recommend approval of the proposed text amendments. The two dissenting voters indicated that subsection 98 -72(e) should be revised to require less that 100% foundation landscaping next to building facades that abut streets and parking areas, even though this provision does not require foundation landscaping that would conflict with doorways, entryways or other building improvements. The dissenting voters indicated that a 70 -75% requirement for foundation landscaping would be more appropriate. STAFF ANALYSIS: Staff has been working with the development community to strengthen and clarify the proposed amendments since the recommendation from the Planning and Zoning Commission. However, no major changes have been made to the proposed regulations since that recommendation. Subsection 98- 72(e), regarding foundation landscaping, has been revised to require foundation landscaping along the facade of one -story buildings that abut a street or parking area, except where doorways and other building improvements are located. Staff is of the opinion that foundation landscaping should be required next to building facades that abut streets and parking areas, except where a conflict exists with a building improvement. The alternative landscape plan mentioned above or a waiver allowed by a planned unit development could allow lesser foundation landscaping if deemed appropriate by the City Council. Staff has added new regulations allowing for an "Alternative Landscape Improvement Plan." These regulations allow applicants to submit an alternative landscape improvement plan that varies from the strict interpretation of these regulations, but which may be determined to be an improvement in proposed landscaping given the individual circumstances for a particular project. 4 ® ®�EI � 8 9 RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the attached Ordinance 40, 1999, amending the City regulations for landscaping and vegetation protection. CITY COUNCIL FIRST READING: On January 6, 2000, the City Council considered this petition and passed the proposed ordinance on First Reading. A question was raised if the county ordinance requiring the removal of exotic species applies in Palm Beach Gardens. The referenced county ordinance applies to the unincorporated area only and not to Palm Beach Gardens. The City does require the removal of exotic plant species where property is developed. However, the removal of exotic plant species on existing developed property is not addressed by the City regulations at this time. Staff will evaluate this issue for a potential code amendment. A comment was also made to reduce the use of abbreviations or acronyms. The attached ordinance has been revised to do so. Attachments (2) g:\Sc\cctxt99.09 5 M®®E7 a.

(5) Reduce erosion by stabilizing the soil. (6) Provide habitat for urban wildlife and a planned transition of the city's green space and open space to the city's conservation areas. (7) Conserve freshwater resources through the use of drought- tolerant plants and mulch, promoting the planting of less sod and water efficient irrigation systems. (8) Provide a visual buffer between otherwise incompatible types of land uses. (9) Increase the economic value of land by serving as a capital asset when properly incorporated into site design. (10) Provide for the public health, safety and welfare. (b) In order to fulfill these goals, this chapter establishes the following: (1) Procedures to evaluate new landscape plans and existing vegetation protection plans using: a. Minimum standards for new landscape installations; b. Minimum standards for the preservation of existing vegetation; and C. ^ dIequ to General standards for landscape maintenance.

An applicant for a building permit may provide written justification to waive the requirement for root barriers. Such waivers shall be approved or denied administratively by the City. Waivers that are denied may be appealed to the Board of Zoning Appeals. See. 98 -104. Pruning. (a) The pruning standards in this chapter shall apply only to all nonresidential uses and to common areas in all planned developments and within Developments of Regional Impact. (b) Crown reduction of shade trees shall be prohibited until the tree canopy has reached at least 15 feet in diameter, except to remove limbs or foliage presenting a hazard or in conflict with a crime prevention program, to remove dead or diseased limbs, to reinforce strength of form, or in association with tree or palm relocation work. After a tree canopy reaches 15 feet in diameter, crown reduction shall only be permitted as incidental when correct pruning standards are used and when there are constraints such as but not limited to power lines and structures. (c) Plant characteristics shall be reviewed during the approval process for landscape plans to prevent conflicts with building design, signage, utilities and drainage. Unless otherwise approved by the city, trees shall be allowed to grow to a shape and size typical of their species throughout their life cycle. (ed) The following are general pruning requirements: 01111 M®11 1 19 (1) Hatracking is prohibited. t==+ that ;v fn - k- Y b Hatracking is to: flat -cut the top or sides of a tree, severing the leader or leaders; make internodal cuts; prune a tree by stubbing off mature wood larger than three inches in diameter; or reduce a mature tree's total circumference or canopy spread by one -third or more. Excessive pruning like hatracking may be considered tree abuse and a code violation by the city's code enforcement board. Each tree hatracked shall be considered a clear and separate violation, with a maximum fine of $250.00 for the first tree and a maximum fine of $250.00 for each additional tree. If the city's code enforcement board has made a previous determination that a person has violated this section, then such person may be charged with a repeat violation. A maximum fine of $500.00 for the first tree and a maximum fine of $500.00 for each additional tree shall be set by the city's code enforcement board for repeat violation of this section. In determining the correctness of particular tree pruning techniques, the city shall use the current edition of the "Pruning Standards for Shade Trees," published by the National Arbors Association, or any future national standard on shade tree pruning. Tree replacement may be required by the code enforcement board. (2) If other than the normal expected tree canopy shade and size is desired by the owner of the trees, the desired shape and size shall be indicated on the approved site landscape plan. If not noted, trees shall be allowed to grow to their natural shape and size. Landowners can request that their approved site plans be amended to allow tree shaping if any of the following conditions apply: a. Trees are located in a constraining situation, such as under power lines. b.

The irrigation system shall be designed and installed in accordance with the Florida Irrigation Society Standards and specifications for Turf and Landscape Irrigation Systems (revised rune 10, 199S), as amended from time to time. Irrigation systems shall be designed and maintained to: (1) Eliminate the wasteful use of water. (2) Eliminate staining of buildings, walks, walls and other site improvements including landscaping. (3) Have a minimum of 100- percent coverage, including the capability of applying water onto turf areas on a different saturation level than irrigate shrub- planting beds. (4) Eliminate water overthrow onto nonpervious areas. The irrigation system plan shall be a minimum scale of one inch equals 30 feet. A rain sensor (switching off irrigation during wet periods) shall be required on all irrigation systems. The city encourages the proper choice of plants for water conservation in landscaping as set forth in the South Florida Water Management Xeriscape Plant Guide. (d) The maintenance of ponds or any water management area and dried retention area shall be the responsibility of the landowner and shall be kept in a neat and clear appearance, free of exotic aquatic vegetation and algae. (e) The root system of existing trees shall be protected during construction by barricades acceptable to the city forester.

Resolution 11, 2000 2. Proposal from Glatting Jackson dated December 22, 1999 utPneern Book" [ ] None BACKGROUND: As previously discussed with the City Council, City staff is recommending that a "City Center Overlay Zoning District" be created to regulate new development in the area of PGA Boulevard adjacent to and including The Gardens Mall area. A key component of such a zoning classification is the preparation and adoption of architectural design standards ( "pattern book ") to ensure compatible and uniform architecture. Staff is recommending that such architectural design standards apply citywide to all new, non - residential development and redevelopment, not just to the ORM14Q proposed City Center area. The proposed design standards are to be adopted as part of the City's land development regulations, which are currently being reviewed and updated. ANALYSIS: The staff of the City's Growth Management Department is recommending that a consulting firm be hired to prepare the proposed architectural design standards due to the current workload constraints of staff and the need for specific expertise for this project. The cost to prepare the proposed architectural design standards is to be paid by the funds received in conjunction with the Forbearance Agreement among the City and the owners of relatively - large, vacant parcels of land in the City. Staff advertised a Request for Proposals (RFP) for this project on December 12, 1999, in The Palm Beach Post, and mailed a copy of the RFP to six consulting firms that appear to have expertise in this area. The following is a list of the firms that provided proposals by the deadline, along with the estimated cost of the project from each firm: 1. Glatting Jackson, et. al. (West Palm Beach) $15,000 2. Genesis Group (Jacksonville) $25,000 3. The RMPK Group (Sarasota) $39,500 4. OBM Miami, Inc. (Coral Gables) $45,000 The staff of the City's Growth Management Department has reviewed the four proposals. The two -page proposal from The RMPK Group has been determined by staff to be insufficient to evaluate. The proposal from Glatting Jackson demonstrates a good understanding of the City's goals for the development of the architectural design standards (pattern book), with regard to the scope of the project. RECOMMENDATION: Staff is recommending the acceptance of the "low bid" proposal from the local firm of Glatting Jackson. This firm has recently worked with the City staff on other projects, including a presentation to the City Council in July 1999 regarding the need to create a City Center Overlay Zoning District. Attached is a copy of the proposal from Glatting Jackson, dated December 22, 1999. The proposal indicates that the architectural design standards will be completed within 45 days for a lump sum fee of $15,000. g: \sc: \archstds.010 2 Nir Imp 14 1 JANUARY 27, 2000 RESOLUTION 11, 2000 A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PALM BEACH GARDENS, FLORIDA, ACCEPTING A PROPOSAL FROM GLATTING, JACKSON, ET.

Acting in an advisory role, the Commission makes a recommendation on the proposed request to the City Council. The City Council reviews the requested PUD for consideration of approval, approval with conditions, or denial. PROJECT DETAILS: Building Site The building site totals 64.47 acres. The proposed plan will create 91 single - family custom homes, a 3,000 square -foot clubhouse, a pool, and two tennis courts. Site Access The site will be accessed from Central Boulevard. The site will be gated 24 hours a day. Signage Two signs on either side of the ingress /egress for the site' are being proposed, along with project identification signs on two of the corners of the site (a total of 4 ground signs). The applicant wants to submit a sign package to the City, detailing the signs at a later date. Environmental & Buffers The site plan for the proposed project shows that there are 10.4 acres of upland preserve, and 90 -foot parkway buffers along Hood Road and Central Boulevard (separating the site from these roadways). The City's Environmental Consultant has reviewed the upland preserve shown on the site plan, and has determined that the amount and location are acceptable (see attached fax dated January 3, 2000). The applicant is proposing to relocate the gopher tortoises on site in the upland preserve. Prior to the issuance of the first building permit, the applicant must submit a gopher tortoise relocation and management plan that is acceptable to the City and the City's Environmental Consultant.

The waiver requests and justification statements are attached to this report. Entrance & Recreation Area The applicant has submitted architectural detail of the entrance to the site (see Guard House Elevations — sheet E1). The applicant wishes to submit (for approval from the City) at a later date, the architectural detail for the recreation center, the landscaping detail for the entrance, and the landscaping detail for the recreation center. Section 118- 50(4)(q) and (s) requires that the applicant submit landscape plans for buffers, walls, entrance features, streets, and common areas unless this requirement is specifically waived by City Council; however, no such provision is available for the architectural detail for the recreation center. STAFF COMMENTS: The applicant submitted revised plans and a narrative letter detailing how Staffs original comments and concerns were addressed (see attachment). The building division, Northern Palm Beach County Improvement District, and the City's Legal Department voiced no objections to this petition. The following comments from Staff reflect the review of this petition, including the review of the revised plans and narrative. Engineerinq City Engineer Sean Donahue has no major concerns regarding the project, other than the fact that engineering supports the Land Development Regulation requirements that call for 10 -foot wide parking spaces. The proposed 9 -foot wide parking spaces will require a waiver from the City. Florida Power and Light (FPL) FPL does not agree (see attached letter dated December 1, 1999) with the proposed amount of easement dedicated to them for maintenance along the western boundary of the site (needed to maintain large power lines). This is an issue that the applicant will have to work out with FPL (see attached comments from City Forester Mark Hendrickson dated December 5, 1999). Seacoast Utility Authority Per Seacoast Utility Authority's request for a future water well site on the subject property, the applicant has located a 30 -foot X 30 -foot easement at the southwest 4 n® N -1.5 6 City Council Meeting Date: February 3, 2000 Date Prepared: January 12, 2000 Petition PUD -99 -03 corner of the property, to be dedicated to Seacoast. Seacoast has responded to the applicant's proposed easement by stating that the easement must be at least 50 feet X 50 feet in size (see attachment). Seacoast has also stated that the applicant needs to: 1) Revise the conceptual landscape plans to show the proposed water and sewer lines and utility easements. 2) Revise the site plan to show the 20 -foot drainage easement between lots #45 and #46. 3) Prior to site plan approval, resolve the easement issue for the 138 KVA FPL transmission main along the west property line. Palm Beach County School District The School District recommends that the subject development post a notice of annual boundary school assignments for students from this development. The School District will provide an 11" X 17" sign to be posted in a clear and visible location in all sales offices and models with the following information: Notice to Home Buyers/Tenants School age children may not be assigned to the public school closest to their residence. School Board policies regarding overcrowding, racial balance or other boundary policy decisions affect school boundaries. Please contact the Palm Beach County School District Boundary Office at (561) 434 -8100 for the most current school assignments. The applicant, successors or assigns shall also be required to provide a bus stop pull off completely out of the right -of -way or a bus stop turn around in front of any access control points or gated communities. The size and location of all such school bus stops shall be coordinated with the City of Palm Beach Gardens, Palm Beach County, and the School District. The applicant shall also be required to provide a bus shelter. Planning & Zoning Division The Planning and Zoning Division has the following outstanding concerns: 1. The applicant needs to revise the plans to show the ultimate right -of -way for Central Boulevard. 2. The applicant needs to address all the comments raised by City Forester Mark Hendrickson in his memorandum dated January 11, 2000 (see attached). 5 ®0 ®1.5 City Council Meeting Date: February 3, 2000 Date Prepared: January 12, 2000 Petition PUD -99 -03 3. The applicant needs to submit a gopher tortoise relocation and management plan that is acceptable to the City and the City's Environmental Consultant. Fire Assistant Chief /Fire Marshal Scott Fetterman has requested that the security gates be equipped with a Knox key switch to provide the Fire Rescue Department with emergency access (Standard Fire Prevention Code 602.6.7). Police See attachment. Parks & Recreation Prior to construction plan approval, $62,500 (the money in lieu of parkland) shall be paid to the City. South Florida Water Management District ( SFWMD) The City's Thoroughfare Plan calls for a road along the northern property line of this parcel. SFWMD has raised a concern about the location of this road because it will cross a wetland. If the road location changes, this site plan may need to be reconfigured and, if the reconfiguration is significant, reapproved. To date, there is no problem with the location of the road, as shown on the plans. PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION: The Planning and Zoning Commission reviewed this petition as a workshop at their December 14, 1999. The Commission reviewed several issues including Staff's environmental concerns and the FPL right -of -way issue, and stated that the applicant would need to satisfactorily address the concerns and comments made by Staff. The Commission voted to place the petition on the next public hearing agenda. The Planning and Zoning Commission reviewed this petition at a public hearing during their January 11, 2000 meeting. The Commission stated that the applicant would need to revise the site plans to show sequential numbering for all 91 lots on the site (numbered 1 through 91). The Commission also stated that the applicant would need to return to the Planning and Zoning Commission, as well as City Council, for approval of the site plan for the proposed clubhouse, and the landscaping details for the clubhouse and entry into the site.

I have duplicated their comments for reference in bold; our responses follows. LMDAHL, BROWNING, FERRARI, & HELLSTROM SEAN DONAHUE MEMO OF 12/9/99 11) The applicant has proposed 9 -feet wide parking spaces. We support the LDR's requirements of 10 -feet wide spaces. The applicant will need to obtain a waiver from the City for 9 -feet wide parking spaces. We are requesting a waiver to allow 9 -foot wide parking spaces at the proposed recreation facility. It is our belief that the majority of the residents will walk to the .centrally - located recreational facility and the parking spaces will not be in demand. In the past, the City has required the 10 -foot wide spaces for retail establishments where there is an expected loading of goods into automobiles. Similar actions are not anticipated at the proposed recreational facility. GROWTH MANAGEMENT - CITY FORESTER MARK HENDRICKSON MEMO OF 12/5/99 1) The western boundary contains a FP & L line. It is my understanding that FP & L will be requesting a 25' wid easement along the entire western boundary and 2eo P I Be Lakes Boulevard �D The course Bea , Florida 33409 -6582 i 161 6(X 8 0066 1.689.0551 fax G: �OOMATONVobalFrenkel�lindp�enSufiRea .121099.wpd � j i cis IRiFj 714.489.8131 rJ ■m@ 1 7 2 Mr. John Lindgren December 22, 1999 Frankel Parcel 4.08 PUD Page 2 recommending a building set back of 31' from their lines throughout the review process of this project. If these items materialize in the future, it may affect the site plan and landscape plan. The petitioner is proceeding at their own risk by not resolving these issues prior to City review and approval. I recommend a condition of approval for the P &Z Commission and City Council, stating that if the site plan changes, including during construction plan review, in factor of FP & L, this petitioner shall return to P &Z Commission and City council for review and approval. The City has several methods of requiring a PUD amendment if there are significant changes to the proposed FPL easements. We are continuing to work with FPL to provide the most up -to -date information regarding the proposed easements. If a change is mandated by a modification of the FPL easement and it exceeds the limits established in the City's LDF, we would agree to return to the City for additional review. 2) The lakes do not have littoral plants proposed. Please provide a waiver and justification or provide a typical planting area and its locations. The South Florida Water Management District discourages littoral planting in lakes where there is the possibility of water level fluctuations. Because of this, we are requesting a waiver from the littoral planting requirement. 3) The application indicates an eight -foot tall wall. This requires a waiver and justification. As indicated on the landscaping cross - section and the resubmittal letter, the wall will be six feet in height from the adjacent lot. This allows for the security that is demanded in the marketplace for high -end communities. The proposed wall will appear as eight -feet from the perimeter of the site. However, it is not anticipated that the wall will be seen from the public rights -of way because of the proposed 100 -foot preserve area adjacent to the location of the proposed wall. If a waiver is required for this wall, we hereby request a waiver for the reasons identified above. 4) The site plan is not clear as to where the 10.9 acres of preserve is located. The parkway must account for a large portion of the proposed preserve area. If 10.1 acres of preserve is required, I continue to have some concerns that util't -V ��> easements are double counted as preserve area, based on the crossh tiitg >� proposed locations of easements. For example, the master site pl dico P c , '0 e Cade G: K? OMMONU obs\Frenkrl\LindgrenSufMcs .121099.wpd Locss �, -�� o ANAL H1999 fpARty�,NtT on -�, Mr. John Lindgren December 22, 1999 Frankel Parcel 4.08 PUD Page 3 FP & L easement to be granted all along Central Boulevard, a 20' wide and 18' wide water main easement appear to be counted as naturally vegetative areas. Please revise the plans similar to the water main easement near the southeast corner to less out all easements. Please less out he 10' wide area cleared for the wall as shown in the 90' Parkway/ upland preservation plan A -A' from the preservation acreage. Also, no berming will be permitted in a preserve. On November 24, 1999, a plan indicating the acreages of each area of the preserve was submitted to the City. On December 10, 1999, a graphic version of the plan was submitted to the City. The easement areas have never been counted as part of the preserve area. There has not been any double - counting of easements and preserve areas. A new graphic indicating the revised upland preserve areas are submitted for your review and information. For your additional information, only a six -inch FPL easement is proposed along Central Boulevard. The 10 -foot area referenced on the Parkway/Upland Preserve Plan is the additional preserve area so a 100 -foot preserve area is created along the east and southern boundaries of the site. There is no proposed berming within the preserve area. 5) Please explain what is meant by 10' minimum upland preserve on details A-A' through E -E'. The exhibits indicate that the preserve would extend beyond the proposed walls on to private lots. This is not possible or allowed by code. The parkway and preserve can be one in the same after you subtract the easements, etc. For example, detail E-E' has a 112' parkway between the wall and the property lien along Hood Road. Ninety (90) feet of it could be counted towards a preserve, if no berming, nonnative plants or permanent irrigation occurs. You may want to save trees and plants within lots, but they cannot be counted towards preserve acreage. Please correct. 6) As indicated above, the 10 -foot upland preserve area is the additional area needed to create a 100 -foot preserve area while incorporating the 90 -foot wide parkway. The preserve is not proposed to extend past the walls on individual lots. No berming, nonnative plants or permanent irrigation are planned within the preserve areas. The plans for the recreation area indicate future clubhouse with landscaping. Please indicate when the clubhouse will be built and how the north side of the pool area will be landscaped prior to clubhouse construction. 9 i The recreational facility, including the pool, is proposed to be G: \OOMMON VobalFrenkelU-indgrenSufrRea .121099. wpd LCC35 Mq �qG�, 1'999 De f, M NNT Mr. John Lindgren December 22, 1999 Frankel Parcel 4.08 PUD Page 4 year of the issuance of the certificate of completion for the abutting roadway. The landscaping around the pool areas, including the north side of the pool, will be installed at the time of clubhouse construction. 7) Please provide a typical landscape plan for water main easement or provide a hedge next to the proposed wall. A note has been added to the site plan indicating that the wall will be screened with landscaping. We will work closely with the City Forester regarding this landscape screen. S) The landscaping in the median of Central Boulevard is a good start. The existing sidewalk along the west side of Central Boulevard will be removed allowing for additional room to landscape along the road shoulder as well. Please revise the roadway beautification plan to show landscape beds in the road shoulder areas where the new sidewalk comes out closest to the ROW line. The landscape plan has been revised to indicate landscape beds within the right -of -way. 9) The future road along the north needs to be landscaped where possible. I will recommend that Frankel contribute to this installation and maintenance. It is our understanding that the Benjamin School will be constructing, landscaping and maintaining the entire roadway on the north side of this project. 10) We should be able to condition this project so that staff reviews the construction plans prior to construction permit for more details on the buffers and preserve restoration. We agree to work with the City Forester regarding more details regarding the buffers and preserve restoration. 11) I suggest shade trees not be installed near the tennis courts for maintenance reasons. Please rethink that design, including the vegetation proposed in the adjacent buffer B -B'. In the area adjacent to the tennis courts, we are modifying the perimeter each live oak with three sabal palms.

Please explain in a narrative why this petition is proposing 30' and 32' wide LME. Should proposed Lots 1 -4 have a LME associated with them similar to the rest of the project? Also, lots 21 and 31 are connected to each other by the LME. Please indicate their respective property lines. In other projects within the City, the 20 -foot land scape maintenance easement is accompanied by an area, located within the water management tract, which slopes toward the water's edge. With the subject site, the individual lot lines are proposed to continue to the water's edge. The lake maintenance easement is expanded in order incorporate the "normal" 20 -foot. maintenance area in addition to the sloped area leading to the water's edge. A lake maintenance easement has been added to lots 1 -4 and the property lines have been added to lots 21 and 31. In addition, all of the lake maintenance easements have been revised to indicate a 32 -foot width. 13) Please provide a cross - section of the proposed lake maintenance easements as they relate to the lot grades and proposed setbacks. A cross - section of the proposed lake maintenance easements is attached for your review. 14) I recommend that all the preserves be connected rather than fragmented and walls /fencing be installed as to not restrict habitat corridors. On the revised site plan, the 0.9 acre preserve area has been eliminated, per staff's request, from the upland preserve calculations. However, in the place of this 0.9 acrea, a common passive park area is shown on the revised site plan. The area east, adjacent to Central Boulevard, of the southern lake has been reconfigured to provide 0.5 acres of additional preserve area. This provides for 10.92 acres of preserve area of which 10.5 acres of preserve is a minimum of 100 -feet wide. The fence on the western side of the western preserve area has been removed from the site plan. In addition a 5 -foot aluminum fence, with a 2 -foot wall base, will be located on the eastern side of the western preserve. 15) Alt lakes should have a common area around them owned by the homeowners association (HOA). We are still proposing the individual lots extending to the waters edge, with'a��- =foot lake easement surrounding the lake. vrP n s Gard G: \OOKWON\Jobs\FrenkelV�ndgronSuffRos .121099.wpd D�L 6s LAS �R??

I also recommend the setback chart include fencing, as it relates to the proposed LME. Fencing has been added to the site plan's setback chart. The chart has a notation indicating that where lots are adjacent to lake maintenance easements, the setbacks will be from the lake maintenance easement. ENVIRONMENTAL CONSULTANT JIM SCHNELLE MEMO OF 12/13/99 (1) Listed species: Add Gopher Tortoise and pineland lily to list; The listed species list has been updated to include gopher tortoise and pineland lily. This will be provided under a separate cover by EW Consultants, Inc. (2) Preserve Area Size: Applicant is providing 11.8 acres of preserve which exceeds the Code requirement of 10.1 acres; As indicated above, the site plan and upland preserve overlay has been modified to indicate 10.9 acres of preserve provide. Of this amount, 10.5 acres of upland preserve are a minimum of 100 feet in width. This exceeds the code requirement. (3) 0.9 Acre Upland Preserve: We propose the applicant shift the 0.9 acre preserve to the west and be contiguous with the upland preserve on the western boundary; On the revised site plan, the 0.9 acre preserve area has been eliminated per staff's request from the upland preserve calculations. However, in the place of this 0.9 acrea, a common passive park area is shown on the revised site plan. The area east, adjacent to Central Boulevard, of the southern lake has been reconfigured to provide 0.5 acres of additional preserve area. This provides for 10.9 acres of preserve area of which 10.5 acres of preserve is a minirni1m of 100 -feet wide. This modification allows for a contiguous upland preserve along the perimeter of the site. (4) Proposed 6' -8' Wall & 6' Chain Link Fence: This creates a wilderness island and prohibits wildlife dispersion and connection with off -site resources.

The fence on the western side of the western preserve area has been removed from the site plan. In addition a 5 -foot aluminum fence, with a 2 -foot wall base, will be located on the eastern side of the western preserve. This will accommodate wildlife movement. (5) Gopher Tortoise Survey: We find the applicants approach to conduct a survey within the next 30 days acceptable; EW Consultants, Inc. is coordinating with Mr. Schnelle regarding the provision of the gopher tortoise survey. PLANNING AND ZONING DIVISION COMMENTS IN 12/14/99 STAFF REPORT (1) The applicant needs to submit all the necessary waiver requests (with justification statements) for this petition, including waivers for setbacks and the wall height. See attached Waiver Request and Justification document. (2) The site plan needs to be revised so that the ultimate rights -of -way for Hood Road and Central Boulevard are labeled and dimensioned. The ultimate rights -of -way for Hood Road and Central Boulevard has been indicated on the revised site plan. (3) For parking purposes, please indicate on the site plan how many bedrooms these homes will have. Also, please revise the site plan to show the required and provided guest parking spaces. As indicated in the previously- submitted Project Narrative, this project will feature custom homes. Because the homes will be custom, it is not possible at this time to provide you with the number of bedrooms proposed for each home. However, the required number of parking spaces will be provided on each lot through the use of the garage and driveway space. Pursuant to Section 118 -476 of the City's LDR, visitor parking is not required for single family homes. It is anticipated that vis,��t6f pr'kirig_wi11. be accommodated through the use of driveway space.

SAN MICHELE December 15, 1999 urmn Urban Design Urban Planning Land Planning Landscape Architecture Communication Graphics For your review and information are the waiver requests and justification statement for the Frankel Parcel 4.08 PUD: Specialty Pavers We request a waiver from the Subdivision Regulations to allow for the use of specialty pavers. Specialty pavers allow for a higher quality entry experience and helps delineate the entrance into a neighborhood. Not only are the pavers an attractive _amenity to the neighborhood and to the community from the public thoroughfare, but the delineation of an entrance to a neighborhood is consistent with Crime Prevention Through Environment Design (CPTED) techniques, which is supported by the City. Nine -foot wide parking spaces (Section 118- 475(a)) We are requesting a waiver to allow 9 -foot wide parking spaces at the proposed recreation facility. It is our belief that the majority of the residents will walk to the centrally - located recreational facility and the parking spaces will not be in demand. In the past, the City has required the 10 -foot wide spaces for retail establishments where there is an expected loading of goods into automobiles. Similar actions are not anticipated at the proposed recreational facility. )Eight -foot perimeter wall (Section 118 -279 (f)(1)) We are requesting a waiver to allow for a 8 -foot wall. It should be noted that the proposed wall will be six feet in height from the adjacent lot because of the proposed grade change. This allows for the security that is demanded in the marketplace for high -end communities. In order not to change the grade of the proposed preserve areas, the proposed wall will appear as eight - feet from the perimeter of the site. However, it is not anticipated that the wall will be -seen :from the public rights -of way because of the proposed 100 -foot preserve area adjacent to the - lotion= of the proposed wall. We hereby request a waiver for the reasons identified above. ct Side corner setback (Section 118 -200 (g)(3)) We are proposing 15 -foot side corner setbacks for individual lots. The zoning designation being used for comparison purposes is RL -3 I Y Of p8.

This situation occurs on 12 of the proposed 91 single family lots. The proposed 15 -foot side street setback provides for more than sufficient area for buffering and landscaping in the side yard and is consistent with other planned communities within the City. Setback regulations are established to provide for the separation of structures for health and safety concerns, to allow for light and air to flow into structures and to provide sufficient open space for a community. The requested waiver to allow for a 15 -foot side corner setback provides for the sufficient separation of structures and allows light and air into homes. It should also be noted that the subject project is proposing 73% open space on site, which is in excess of the required 40 %. Side setback for the 90 foot wide lots (Section 118 -200 (g)(2) We are proposing 7.5 -foot side setbacks for all lots within the proposed community. The zoning designation being used for comparison purposes is RL -3 which has a 7.5 -foot or 10 percent of the lot width side setback requirement. Because of the proposed 90 -wide lot, which is 25 feet wider than the minium lot width allowed in the RL -3 district, the setback requirement is 9 feet. We are requesting a waiver of 1.5 feet to allow for a 7.5 -foot side setback. The proposed side setback provides for a minimum 15 foot building separation, which exceeds the 10 -foot standard established for the Fire Department. The provides for sufficient area for landscaping and the provision of light and air. As indicated above, the San Michele is proposing 73% open space in the community. Forty percent open space is required for residential PUDs. Littoral Planting zones (Section 98 -106) The South Florida Water Management District discourages littoral planting in lakes where there is a possibility of water level fluctuations. Because of this, we are requesting a waiver from this littoral planting requirement. City of "- Ga,dens - DEC 22 1999 1 _ ^ GROWTH A4ANArEMFNt , r _... 11111Y 181 01/03/2000 13:31 5616227631 JAMES F.

The proposed well site shown on the site plan is too small (should by 50'x 501) and does not appear to meet required setbacks from the canal on the property to the west. 2. The applicant needs to depict proposed water and sewer lines and utility easements on the conceptual landscape plans. 3. The site plan does not depict the 20' drainage easement between lots #45 and #46. 4. The easement issue for the 138 KVA VTL transmission main along the west property line need% to be resolved prior to site plan approval. Please call if you require additional information.

Based on information provided at the November 23, 1999 meeting with the petitioner, I can now recommend DRC certification. The following are my comments for the December 14, 1999 P &Z Commission meeting: The western boundary contains a FP &L line. It is my understanding that FP &L will be requesting a 25' wide easement along the entire western boundary and recommending a building set back of 31' from their lines throughout the review process of this project. If these items materialize in the future, it may affect the site plan and landscape plan. The petitioner is proceeding at their own risk by not resolving these issues prior to City review and approval. I recommend a condition of approval for the P &Z Commission and City Council, stating that if the site plan changes, including during construction plan review, in favor of FP &L, this petition shall return to P &Z Commission and City Council for review and approval. The lakes do not have littoral plants proposed. Please provide a waiver and justification or provide a typical planting area and its locations. The application indicates an eight -foot tall wall. This requires a waiver and justification. The site plan is not clear as to where the 10.9 acres of preserve is located. The parkway must account for a large portion of the proposed preserve area. If 10.1 acres of preserve is required, I continue to have some concerns that utility easements are double counted as preserve area, based on the crosshatching and proposed locations of easements. For example, the master site plan indicates a 6' FP &L easement to be granted all along Central Boulevard, a 20' wide and 18' wide water main easement in the northeast and northwest corners of the project respectively, all of which appear to be counted as naturally vegetative areas. Please revise the plans similar to the water main easement near the southeast corner to less out all easements. Please less out the 10' wide area cleared for the wall as shown in the 90' Parkway /upland preservation plan A -A' from the preservation acreage. Also, no berming will be permitted in a preserve. Please explain what is meant by 10' minimum upland preserve on details A -A' through E- E'. The exhibits indicate that the preserve would extend beyond the proposed walls on to private lots. This is not possible or allowed by code. The parkway and preserve can be one in the same after you subtract the easements, etc. For example, detail E -E' has a 112' parkway between the wall and the property line along Hood Road. Ninety (90) feet of it could be counted towards a preserve, if no berming, nonnative plants or permanent ari F180) irrigation occurs. You may want to save trees and plants within lots, but they cannot be counted towards preserve acreage. Please correct. The plans for the recreation area indicate future clubhouse with landscaping. Please indicate when the clubhouse will be built and how the north side of the pool area will be landscaped prior to clubhouse construction. Please provide a typical landscape plan for water main easements or provide a hedge next to the proposed wall. The landscaping in the median of Central Boulevard is a good start. The existing sidewalk along the west side Central Boulevard will be removed allowing for additional room to landscape along the road shoulder as well. Please revise the roadway beautification plan to show landscape beds in the road shoulder areas where the new sidewalk comes out closest to the ROW line. • The future road along the north needs to be landscaped where possible. I will recommend that Frankel contribute to this installation and maintenance. • We should be able to condition this project so that staff reviews the construction plans prior to construction permit for more details on the buffers and preserve restoration. • I suggest shade trees not be installed near the tennis courts for maintenance reasons. Please rethink that design, including the vegetation proposed in the adjacent buffer B -B' • Normal lake maintenance easements (LME) are 20' wide. Please explain in a narrative why this petition is proposing 30' and 32' wide LME. Should proposed Lots 1- 4 have a LME associated with them similar to the rest of the project? Also, Lots 21 and 31 are connected to each other by the LME. Please indicate their respective property lines. • Please provide a cross - section of the proposed lake maintenance easements as they relate to the lot grades and proposed setbacks. I may have additional review comments after the above mention items have been addressed. There are two project design items that I recommend the City not support. The fencing off of a preserve is not environmentally correct. Putting lake maintenance easements within lots create future problems between homeowners and their association. I have no problem walling in a community for security reasons, but that can be done without affecting the flow of wildlife corridors. For example, there is no reason why the western preserve needs an 8' tall wall and a 6' chain -link fence around it. I believe the preserves and parkway should be an amenity for the community rather than a barrier as proposed. The City's codes speak to this very issue in Sections 98 -69 (g) and 102 -10 (g). I recommend that all the preserves be connected rather than fragmented and walls /fencing be installed as to not restrict habitat corridors. �r 8 u Secondly, all lakes should have a common area around them owned by the homeowners association (HOA). It is unreasonable for the future HOA to not have total control over the maintenance of their lakes. It is also unreasonable to expect property owners to buy property that they cannot fence off, build on, or landscape. I recommend all lakes be tracts of land that also include common maintenance areas around them. I also recommend the setback chart include fencing, as it relates to the proposed LME. ®19rP1g� Memo To File From: Mark Hendrickson, City Forester ` e Subject: PUD- 99 -03, Frankel Parcel 4.08 San Michele PUD Date: January 11, 2000 I have reviewed the application submitted December 22, 1999. The following are my comments and recommendations for the January 11, 2000 P &Z Commission meeting: Please note that changes have occurred to the previously submitted conditions. These changes are underlined and in bold print. There continues to be some minor discrepancies between the narratives for the parkway/ preserve and the cross - section exhibits. Therefore, I recommend the following condition: There shall not be any man-made berming or non - native vegetation within the perimeter open spaces /parkway areas that are platted as preserves. Due to the extremely close acreage estimates for the required and proposed upland preserve, and the unresolved FP &L easement issue, I recommend the project's plat be approved by City Council prior to any land clearing. I have experienced in similar projects how the conceptual nature of the site plan and the location of the utilities have changed prior to construction. The plat is the best way to define the boundaries needed for clearing. Therefore, I recommend the following condition: No land clearing, other than exotic invasive vegetation, shall occur until the bond or surety has been posted for this project. Due to the conceptual nature of the landscape plan exhibits "A -A" through "G -G ", I recommend the following condition: Pursuant to Article III, Section 114 -71, entitled Required subdivision improvements, prior to the issuance of the building permit, the petitioner shall be required to post a bond for the project landscapingibuffer and entry feature. In order to arrive at the cost estimate for a bond, detailed landscape plans need to be completed, reviewed and approved by the City staff, including the City's Environmental Consultant. Where wetlands are being converted to upland forest, and where poor quality uplands are being restored (as in the 0.42 area B), typical minimum planting plans per a specific area may be approved. The installation of the buffers should be conditioned as follows: 1. Prior to the issuance of the 45`' house building permit, the Parkway System, including the median, shall be completed along Hood Road and Central Boulevard, except for that portion of Central Boulevard required by Gardens Presbyterian Church to install. �� 1 8 2. AlonL, the northern and western boundaries, all landscaping or preserve restoration, exotic plant removal and /or enhancement work shall be completed within preserves and buffers, prior to the adjacent lot wall/fence being installed or constructed. 3. The Clubhouse and pool recreation area shall be completed prior to the issuance of the 451 house building permit. I recommend that the petitioner's restriction that " all lots abutting private lakes shall not build within lake maintenance easements" include all types of fencing or walls. The condition shall read as follows: The project's plat shall include restrictions in the lake maintenance easements (L.M.E.) which prohibit structures, walls and fencing, but allow landscaping as permitted by the POA, as long as there is at least 12' of unobstructed passage through the landscaping around the entire lake. I recommend the following condition for the public roadway landscape maintenance: The Homeowners Association (HOA), as required by the HOA documents, shall maintain landscaping and irrigation within the medians and road shoulders along the entire length of the development of Hood Road, Military Trail and the future road along the northern boundary, in perpetuity. The City shall require, as a condition of approval of any new project located on the north, south or east of these adjacent road systems, that they bear their proportionate share of the cost of the continued maintenance thereof. In the event a Special Parkway District is formed by the City of Palm Beach Gardens, or another entity, pertaining to the roadway maintenance around this project, the HOA shall automatically become a member of said District. This condition shall also be made a part of the HOA documents. ■IPF'18g PALM BEACH GARDENS POLICE CRIME PREVENTION MATRIX CHART PROJECT NAME: PUD -99 -03 Parcel 4.08 (Frankel) REVIEWED BY: Officer E.

The proposed amendment includes two (2) six story office buildings (totaling 223,943 square feet) with a separate parking structure. The applicant is also requesting the deletion or amendment of conditions #9, #12, and #13 of Resolution 118, 1994. (6- 42S -43E) BACKGROUND: The site is located within the Regional Center Planned Community District (PCD), which was created through the adoption of Resolution 9, 1984. The Regional Center was a DRI. The site was originally approved by Resolution 118, 1994 (see attachment), and referred to as the "Mediplex ". Resolution 21, 1995 approved the plat for the site. The site plan was subsequently amended through Resolution 89, 1995 (amending the exterior architectural finishes to the buildings), Resolution 69, 1996 (modifying the exterior architectural finishes to the buildings), Resolution 124, 1996 (amending the signage), and Resolution 164, 1996 (see attachment). The amended plan included two phases. The first phase has been constructed and includes two buildings: 1) a 10 -story medical office building and parking garage (totaling 184,057 square feet), and 2) a 3 -story skilled nursing facility with 120 beds (totaling 70,000 square feet). The approved second phase called for the construction of a 10 -story medical office building (totaling 223,943 square feet) and a parking structure with 965 spaces. This proposed amendment will affect phase 2 only. The 223,943 square -foot medical office building and parking structure will be replaced with two 6 -story professional (80 %) and medical (20 %) office buildings (each 111,972 square feet in size), and a 6 -story parking structure with 906 spaces. LAND USE & ZONING: The subject site is zoned as a Planned Community District (PCD) with a Planned Unit Development (PUD) overlay, and has a future land use designation of Professional Office (PO). The site is also part of the Regional Center DRI. The applicant wishes to maintain the PCD zoning, the PUD overlay, and the PO future land use designation. For a complete listing of adjacent uses, land use designations and zoning districts, see Pi ■naIg!)= City Council Meeting Date: February 3, 2000 Date Prepared: January 13, 2000 Petition PUD -99 -12 Table 1. Table 2 examines how consistent the proposed project is with the City Code and future land use for the site. CONCURRENCY: Because the proposed amendment does not exceed the previously - approved capacity for the site, it remains vested in regards to its concurrency. The original approval would generate 13,489 vehicular trips per day, while the proposed revised plan would generate 10,507 daily trips. The proposed plan would thus result in a net decrease in daily traffic of 2,982 trips, which will permanently be lost upon the approval of this amendment. The build -out date for the revised project would be December 31, 2004. See attached letter from Kimley -Horn dated June 30, 1999. PUBLIC & PRIVATE SERVICES The City's Development Review Committee (DRC) discussed the request at their August 26, 1999 meeting. A listing of the various departmental comments is attached for your review. Furthermore, the applicant was informed at the meeting concerning the Pattern Book and City Center Pedestrian Linkage Study which will soon be adopted; the applicant was instructed that they would be required to comply with these when they are adopted. PROCEDURE: This is a request for approval of an amendment to a Planned Unit Development (PUD). A request for approval of a PUD amendment is first reviewed by the Development Review Committee (DRC). The DRC forwards comments and recommendations to the Planning and Zoning Commission. Acting in an advisory role, the Commission makes a recommendation on the request to the City Council. The City Council reviews the requested PUD amendment for consideration of approval, approval with conditions, or denial. PROJECT DETAILS: Buildinq Site The proposed amendment will maintain the existing Phase 1, which includes a 10 -story medical office building and parking garage (totaling 184,057 square feet), and a 3 -story skilled nursing facility with 120 beds (totaling 70,000 square feet). The previously approved second phase called for the construction of two medical office buildings (totaling 223,943 square feet) and a parking structure with 965 spaces. R DRIP 19 6 City Council Meeting Date: February 3, 2000 Date Prepared: January 13, 2000 Petition PUD -99 -12 The proposed petition will amend Phase 2 by replacing the 223,943 square feet of medical office space (in 2 buildings) and the parking structure with two 6 -story professional and medical office buildings (each 111,971.5 square feet in size for a total of 223,943 square feet), and a 6 -story parking structure with 906 spaces. The proposed project will have a total of 1,677 parking spaces (1,650 spaces are required by City Code). There will be no surface parking in Phase 2. The amendment will result in the permanent change of the 223,943 square feet of office from 100% medical /dental, to 80% business /professional and 20% medical /dental, plus ancillary, bank, etc. The parking calculations are based on this change, and the applicant is agreeing to the reduction of approved trips. The applicant also understands that they are permanently forfeiting the ability to go back to a higher proportion of medical /dental office. Because the entire site (which contains both Phase 1 and Phase 2) is one PUD, the entire site is open to review with this petition. Aesthetics The applicant provided detail concerning the material and colors to be used in Phase 2 on the building elevations, and has further stated that the office buildings and parking garage in Phase 2 use materials and colors that are compatible with those used in Phase 1. However, the glass windows proposed for the Phase 2 are different in color to those used in Phase 1. The main question raised by Staff is whether the architecture and materials being proposed for Phase 2 is compatible with Phase 1's existing architecture and materials? A final point made by Staff is that Condition #2 in Resolution 164, 1996 states that "[t]he Phase 2 Medical Office Building shall be of the same construction and quality in all respects and otherwise identical to the Phase 1 Medical Office Building." This condition was created by Staff to ensure that the buildings in both phases of the site would be compatible with each other. This condition must be deleted with the approval for this petition. Site Access The site will have a total of two access points, one along Lake Victoria Gardens Drive and one along Kyoto Gardens Drive. The site will not have any ingress /egress points along Alternate Al A or PGA Boulevard. Walkways The large previously approved pedestrian plaza is being replaced with a walkway, open space, and a sculpture garden. 4 R®E 19 l City Council Meeting Date: February 3, 2000 Date Prepared: January 13, 2000 Petition PUD -99 -12 Waste Management There are two existing dumpsters located in Phase 1, and there are two more dumpsters proposed for Phase 2. Each dumpster in Phase 2 will be located adjacent to the building that it is intended to service. Signage The site currently has two existing ground signs: one at the intersection of PGA Boulevard and Lake Victoria Gardens Drive, and the other located at the Lake Victoria Gardens Drive ingress /egress point. The applicant is now proposing a ground sign to be located at the Kyoto Gardens Drive ingress /egress point, and another ground sign along the internal drive aisle for the project. PGA Boulevard, Lake Victoria Gardens Drive, and Kyoto Gardens Drive are all public roadways. City Code requires that there be a minimum of 2,400 linear feet of public roadway frontage for a site to have 4 ground signs; the Gardens Corporate Centre site has approximately 3,380 linear feet of public roadway frontage. The applicant has not provided detail for the two new ground signs; therefore, he will be required to submit a petition in the future for City Approval of the elevations of the new signs on the site. Landscaping The required amount of landscaping points for the proposed project is 8,980, and the applicant is proposing landscaping totaling 17,973 points. Currently, the applicant wants to accept only limited responsibility for installing or maintaining landscaping in the medians or road rights -of -way for PGA Boulevard and Alternate A1A. Staff has proposed new conditions of approval regarding roadway landscaping (see recommendation section on page 14 — 16) which were modified by the Planning and Zoning Commission. Phasing Phase 2 of the site will be done in two stages. In the first stage, office building 2a (the southernmost office building in phase 2) will be Constructed along with a portion of the parking garage (590 spaces). In the second stage, office building 2b will be constructed, as will the remainder of the parking garage (an additional 316 spaces). PGA Boulevard Corridor Oveda y Section 118 -280 of the City Code of Ordinances requires that all lands within the City that front or abut PGA Boulevard (including access drives), for a depth of 1,000 feet from the edge of right -of -way, meet various aesthetic design requirements because it is the City's "Main Street." The proposed project does not violate any of these requirements. 5 Omni 98 City Council Meeting Date: February 3, 2000 Date Prepared: January 13, 2000 Petition PUD -99 -12 FDOT Taking After the future FDOT right -of -way taking, the existing portion of the site will no longer have the required 55 -foot landscape buffer abutting PGA Boulevard; the 3801 building will only have a 30 -foot setback from the property line along PGA Boulevard. The 30- foot landscape buffer will be a valid legal nonconformity because it will be created by the FDOT taking, not because of any action made by the applicant. The FDOT taking will also result in a reduction in open space of approximately 9.83% on site (from 56.49% to 46.66 %). Some landscaping will also be lost because of the FDOT taking; however, the Canary Island Date Palms feature at the corner of PGA Boulevard and Alternate A1A should be relocated to the future corner of the two roadways (after the FDOT taking). MacArthur Foundation In letters dated March 29, 1999 and April 20, 1999, the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation voiced that they had no objections to the proposed modifications to the project and use (see attachments). Art in Public Places The applicant wishes to locate their "Art in Public Places" requirement in the "Sculpture Garden" located along PGA Boulevard. Platting Resolution 21, 1995 approved the plat for the first phase of this site; however, the entire site will have to be replatted to include both Phase 1 and Phase 2. Waivers Waiver requests (including justification statements) have been submitted for all buildings on the site that have a height greater than 36 feet, and for 9 -foot wide parking spaces (see attached letter dated January 4, 2000). Previous Conditions The applicant has submitted a letter dated September 3, 1999 (see attachment), requesting the deletion of three conditions from the previous approval for the site (conditions #9, #12, and #13 from Resolution 118, 1994). The request for the deletion of conditions #12 and #13 are also elaborated in the September 20, 1999 letter. Condition #9 requires the applicant to replace any tree or plant that dies during construction. The applicant states in the September 3, 1999 letter that every effort will be made to preserve existing trees on site, but if any trees die during construction, then the mitigation as noted on the landscape plan will apply. Staff supports the removal of this condition. R ���99 City Council Meeting Date: February 3, 2000 Date Prepared: January 13, 2000 Petition PUD -99 -12 Condition #12 requires the applicant to install and maintain landscaping in the median of Alternate A1A adjacent to the project site. The applicant states in both the October 26, 1999 letter and the December 3, 1999 letter that the MacArthur /Regional Center Property Owners Association (POA) will install and maintain the landscaping in this median. Therefore the applicant would like to be relieved of this responsibility. Staff supports removing this condition and replacing it with a different condition (see conditions #13, #14, and #15 in the Recommendation section of this report). Condition #13 requires the applicant to replace any landscaping or sidewalks removed along Alternate A1A and PGA Boulevard (including the medians) because of the widening of Alternate Al A and the PGA Overpass. The applicant states in both their October 26, 1999 letter and the December 3, 1999 letter that the MacArthur /Regional Center Property Owners Association (POA) will be responsible for the landscaping and sidewalks along the two roadways (and within the medians). Therefore the applicant wishes to be relieved of this responsibility. Staff supports removing this condition and replacing it with a different condition (see conditions #13, #14, and #15 in the Recommendation section of this report). After reviewing these requests, Staff has deleted some of these conditions, reworded others, and restated the remaining conditions in the "Recommendation" section of this report. STAFF COMMENTS: Engineerinq Assistant City Engineer Sean Donahue stated that they support the City's Land Development Regulations that require 10 -foot wide parking spaces. Mr. Donahue also suggested the following conditions: 1. Prior to construction plan approval, the applicant, successors, or assigns shall verify that all the requirements of the master stormwater permit have been satisfied to the satisfaction of the City Engineer. 2. Any 9 -foot wide parking spaces on the site shall be double striped. 3. The lighting intensity at the perimeter of the parking garage shall not exceed the 10.0 foot - candle maximum. 4. Prior to construction plan approval, sidewalk detail shall be added to the paving, grading and drainage detail sheet. 5. Prior to construction plan approval, the applicant shall identify the shapes located at the edges of the contoured sidewalks located throughout the site on the Site Plans (they appear to be benches). 7 FIRP2 00 City Council Meeting Date: February 3, 2000 Date Prepared: January 13, 2000 Petition PUD -99 -12 6. Prior to construction plan approval, the applicant shall move the stop bars at the circular drives (shown on the site plan), to the outside of the pedestrian crossings. 7. Prior to construction plan approval, the applicant shall add curb cuts to the sidewalks that cross the entrance to the site from Kyoto Gardens Drive. Northern Palm Beach County Improvement District Northern Palm Beach County Improvement District (Northern) has stated that the proposed project is located within its jurisdiction, therefore, the applicant will be required to apply and obtain Northern's Standard Permit (see attachment). Planninq & Zoninq Division Regarding Resolution 118, 1994, conditions #6, #7, #8, and #9 are required by code, therefore they do not need to be restated. Conditions #12 and #13 should be removed per the applicant's request, and conditions #14 and #15 have been completed, and are no longer on the applicant's property. Staff recommends that conditions #5, #10, #17, and #18 of Resolution 118, 1994 (attached) be carried over with the approval of this petition. Condition #10 addresses existing and future landscaping, while conditions #17 and #18 deal with the accessibility and signage of medical ancillary uses. Condition #11 has been modified below (condition #3). Conditions #1, #2, #3, #4, and #16 have already been met, and are no longer necessary. Staff further recommends that condition #1 of Resolution 164, 1996 (attached), which states that "[t]he louvers are to be painted to match the window frames ", be restated to read 'The color of the louvers shall be compatible with the surrounding building." Finally, Staff recommends that the following new conditions be added with this approval: 1. The bank's drive - through operation shall account for less than 50% of the bank's business. 2. The loss of the traffic trips with this approval (compared to the previous approval) shall be permanent. The applicant will not be permitted to amend this PUD approval in such a manner that would increase the amount of traffic generated by this site. 3. Pursuant to Article III, Section 114 -71, of the City's Land Development Regulations, the applicant shall provide a bond or escrow for 110% of the cost to install landscaping and irrigation within the PGA Boulevard and Alternate Al A roadway (flyover) improvements, per the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) final plans, from and including the respective medians of said roads to the property line, which includes phase 1, 2a, and 2b. The applicant, successors or assigns shall provide said bond to the City within six (6) months of this approval. n ®®W2 0 1 City Council Meeting Date: February 3, 2000 Date Prepared: January 13, 2000 Petition PUD -99 -12 4.

VOTE: Mayor Russo Vice Mayor Furtado Councilwoman Monroe Councilman Jablin Councilman Clark AYE NAY ABSENT v v MEMORAND TO: Jim Norquest FROM: Sean C. Donahue DATE: October 11, 1999 SUBJECT: MacArthur Center — NPBCID Unit 19 �n File No. 84 -0237 As requested, the status of the drainage review of the MacArthur Center is as follows: Over the course of the past several months, and to date, we have participated in nine meeting and many phone conversations with the prospective developers and the Northern Palm Beach County Improvement District and their engineering consultants — including attendance at a pre - application meeting with the SFWMD. We have also reviewed several engineering reports dealing with drainage issues related to the parcels surrounding the MacArthur Center including the FDOT drainage report for the PGA Boulevard flyover bridge at Alternate AlA.. The focus of these meetings was to: (1) identify deficiencies in the surface water management system, (2) identify methods by which the existing system and any proposed modifications to the surface water management system would be analyzed, and (3) identify benchmark criteria against which the proposed improvements to the surface water management system and any potential impacts to adjacent parcels would be measured. The assessment of the existing surface water management system showed that the history of development within the MacArthur Center had changed, and negatively impacted the performance of the surface water management system. The assessment of the existing surface water management system also demonstrated that, if unchanged, the system would not function as designed or meet the levels of service or performance standards established by the City. The meetings resulted in a major effort by the prospective developers and their consulting engineers to effect changes to their proposed land plans which would enhance the existing surface water management system. The prospective developers have directed their consulting engineers to redesign and dynamically model the proposed changes to the surface water management system. We attended the meetings throughout the development of the proposed surface water management system model to ensure that the proposed redesign of the system met the objectives of the City while protecting existing developments in the vicinity of the project. It is anticipated that the proposed modifications to the land plans and/or the surface water management will produce a water management system which will meet the level of service and performance standards established by the City. nor The bulk of the proposed modifications occur in the eastern two basins of the four drainage basins within the MacArthur Center. Changes within the eastern portion of the project, primarily owned by Kolter Land Development include: (1) creating of a fourth drainage basin in the northeast portion of the site which encompasses a large Oak Hammock preserve area, (2) the addition of approximately 8 acres of additional surface water management lakes, (3) the redirection of the drainage runoff from the eastern portion of the Meadows Mobile Home Park into the Prosperity Farms Road drainage system, and (4) the creation of a new and separate drainage outfall for the western portion of the Meadows Mobile Home Park and the newly created northeast basin. In conjunction with the Palm Beach County Engineering Department, it is proposed that the new outfall would be located in the Prosperity Farms Road right -of -way. In addition to the developed areas within the MacArthur Center, this outfall system would be sized to accept drainage runoff from the proposed roadway improvements to Prosperity Farms Road serving this project and improve substandard drainage within isolated areas between the MacArthur Center and the final outfall at the Cabana Colony Canal. Currently, all of the proposed changes to the surface water management system serving the MacArthur Center — including the input and output data for the dynamic model of the surface water system are being compiled into an engineering report and formal application package for submittal to the SFWMD and the City. As of Monday, October 11, 1999, according to Mark Williams of the Southern Design Group, the lead consultant in the effort to redesign the surface water management system, the projected date for submittal of the engineering report and application to modify the surface water management system to both the City and the SFWMD is the week of October 18, 1999. While we have not seen the final engineering report or modeling results, it is expected that the engineering report for the revised surface water management system will demonstrate that the criteria established by the City for level of service and performance standards for the surface water management system serving the project can be met. scnirRvtm cc: Len Lindahl PAPBGMEM0V4- 237.10 ❑�❑ Kimley -Horn and Associates, Inc.

Cis MacArthur Center DRI PGA Boulevard at Alternate Al 6 1999 Palm Beach Gardens, Florida t�C ``1, 040512.02 BC Dear Mr. Oliver: As requested, Kimley -Horn and Associates, Inc. has performed a traffic generation analysis for the above referenced project. The project was approved by the City of Palm Beach Gardens as the Medical Mall. Phase 1 of the project was constructed as approved. The owners now desire to undertake Phase 2 of the project but with primarily general professional office instead of medical office. This letter addresses the change in traffic generation associated with the proposed use change. The original project was approved for a skilled nursing facility of 150 beds (70,000 square feet) and 408,000 square feet of medical office and ancillary medical uses. Phase 1 of the project which has been built and occupied consists of the 150 bed nursing facility and 184,057 square feet of medical office and ancillary uses. The proposed plan modification would allow the Phase l .medical office to be occupied by medical or general office uses while retaining the existing nursing facility. Phase 2 of the project would consist of 175,040 square feet of general office, 42,906 square feet of medical office and 5,997 square feet for a drive -in bank on the ground floor of one of the two office buildings. Another bank would also occupy the ground floor of the second office building but it would not have drive -in facilities. The bank without the drive -in facilities is treated as office building square footage whereas the drive -in bank is treated separately for trip generation purposes. The trip generation potential of the approved and proposed plans are presented in the attached table using current trip generation rates. As can be seen in the table, the proposed plan generates equal to or less trips than the approved plan during all time periods. Therefore, traffic concurrency and DRI issues are not triggered by the proposed change. We should also note that by using the trip generation rates contained in the ADA for the MacArthur Center DRI, that there would be ■ TEL 561 845 0665 FAX 561 863 8175 C2= Kimley-Horn M F1 and Associates, Inc.

P.02 Ed Oliver John Glidden Daniel Brown Keith Spina There are several of the existing condition of the PUD approval that we feel need to be deleted. They are as follows: Resolution 20 -19 -95 Number 9 All trees orplants designated for preservation/relocation that die during construction or because of construction practices shall be replaced using the following schedule: For every inch of tree caliper lost, three Inches of new tree caliper shall be replaced with like specie. The minimum replacement tree shall be three inches in diameter. Palms shall be replaced with like specie, one for one with a minimum 10' height. Shrubs shall be replaced with like specie one for one with a minimum 30" height If the site cannot support the total number of replacement trees as required above, City Council may permit the developer to donate excess trees to the City for planting on public lands. While the applicant is endeavoring to preserve some of the existing trees on site, it should be understood that if those trees do not survive the construction process, then the mitigation as noted on the landscape plan will apply. Therefore, condition #9 will not apply and we ask that it be deleted.

Military Trail Palm Beach Gardens, FL 33410 RE: Gardens Corporate Center Palm Beach Gardens, FL Project Number: 98073 PUD -99 -12 Dear John: Ed Oliver John Glidden Daniel Brown Keith Spina Please accept this letter providing responses to the various questions that were raised during the DRC Meeting. We trust that the following will be self - explanatory. John Lindgren Memo, August 27, 1999 1. Waiver requests (including justification statements) must be submitted regarding the 55 -foot landscape buffer and the height of the two proposed buildings. Response: We are requesting waivers for a number of items: a. The required 55' landscape buffer cannot be provided In front (to the south) of the 3809 building because of the proposed taking of property by the Florida Department of Transportation (FOOT). We therefore request a waiver from 55' to 30' as a required landscape buffer. b. We are requesting a waiver to allow 9' wide parking spaces only in the parking garage. C. A waiver is requested to accommodate the building height for the proposed six story office buildings of 98' feet and 79' for the parking structure. Please note that the existing approval allows the construction of a 10 story building at a height of approximately 150' feet 2. Written approval of the above referenced petition from the Regional Centre Design Review Committed must be submitted. Response Written approval from the Regional Center Design Review Committee (McArthur Foundation) was Included with the original application. Please reference their letters of March 17th and March 29th along with attachments. ■ 1401 FORUM WAY, SUITE 100 • WEST PALM BEACH, FL 33401 • 561- 684 -6841 • FAX: 561- 684 -6890 • E -MAIL: ogp68416aol.com Lic.

Response Site Plans indicate all critical dimensions. included are dimensions for existing ground signs from property lines. Mark Hendrickson Memo, August 26, 1999, There is an irrigation system plan previously approved for this site. Please revise this plan to show any proposed changes. The important issues in the revision are to indicate the main lines and how they are interfacing with the existing system, and how they are incorporating the off site (ROW) landscape areas, including the medians. Response Landscape architect has located existing main irrigation lines and indicated their interface with phases 2a and 2b. Previously the Mall Commons areas system supplied the irrigation for road median and right of way areas. The off site medians and right of ways are now within FDOT's control and design. We have no knowledge of their irrigation plans. We acknowledge the need to coordinate Phase 2A and 2B lines with the existing lines and to avoid conflicts with existing utilities. 2. There is an Alt. A1A median landscape plan approved previously and condition for its installation. Please confirm that these are still applicable or propose changes. Response FDOT's Landscape Architec4 Reynolds, Smith & Hill, is finalizing a re- design for the medians and right of ways along AIA and PGA Boulevard. The Issue of landscaping those areas Is totally within FDOT's responsibility and control. We have recently requested and received a courtesy copy of the FDOT's preliminary design, for our information only. The applicant wishes to delete conditions 12 and 13 of the existing PUD Approvals: Number 12 Prior to the C.O. of Phase 2, if permitted by FDOT, the developer shall install permanent landscaping pursuant to the Landscape Plan in the portion of the median of Alternate A -1 -A that is adjacent to the project in conjunction with the State's improvements to Alternate A -1 -A, and said median landscaping shall match that of PGA Boulevard. If the State's improvements to Alternate A -1 -A will not be completed by the time that Phase 2 of the project is completed then, in conjunction with the landscaping of Phase 2 of the project, the developer shall install (if permitted by the FDOT) landscaping in the portion of the median of Alternate A -1 -A that is adjacent to the project; such landscaping shall conform to the interim landscaping provided by the Gardens East PCD in Alternate A-1 -A and shall be irrigated. Response It is the applicant's understanding that the FDOT will be providing the landscaping and Irrigating for the median of Altemate A!A and as such wishes to be relieved from this 19"2 4 Page #3 responsibility. We, therefore, ask that this condition be deleted. Number 13 Any meandering sidewalk or roadway landscaping, including the median, along PGA Boulevard and Alternate A -1 -A adjacent to the project that is removed in conjunction with the required construction of an overpass at PGA Boulevard and Alternate A -1 -A or the widening of Alternate A -1 -A adjacent to the project shall be replaced, if acceptable to MOT and acceptable to the City, one time by the property owner of the project within thirty days of request by the City. Response It is our understanding that the MOT will be making the modifications to not only the median landscaping for A1A and PGA Boulevard, but the additional property they will be taking, including the relocation of the meandering walkway. Therefore, the applicant would like to be relieved of that responsibility and asks that this condition be deleted. 3. The City needs to know what landscaping is being removed along PGA Blvd and Alt. A1A. The landscaping south of the existing Phase I was counted towards this project's landscape point calculation and the sidewalk and landscaping was installed along Alt. A1A. If the landscaping and sidewalks are no longer going to be part of this project, it needs to be replaced. Staff suggests a submittal of a second landscape plan which depicts all the new meandering sidewalks and parkway landscaping on site, if it is to be removed by FDOT. Response As described in response (2) above, FDOT's Landscape Architect is solely responsible for landscaping changes to medians and right of ways forA1A and PGA Boulevard. Ourplans, however, reflect comparable landscape concentrations to that previously approved. The meandering sidewalk Is now located In property FDOT will take and will be part of that design. Landscape drawings Indicate relocated Canary Island Date Palms as requested by owner. 4. If bank teller access drive cannot be eliminated, there needs to be more - separation between it and the cul -de -sac. The open space between these drives should have more-landscaping. Response The bank teller access drive has been redesigned to provide additional separation between It and the turn - around. Additional landscaping has been added to the separation area. 5. The parking garage landscaping has too many gaps. Previously this area had much I heavier landscaping. Response The "gaps" were created intentionally and collaboratively between Architect and Landscape Architect to emphasize the vertical elements of the parking structure. This Is an Important feature of the building's design appearance. npm244 Page 94 Undahl, Browninq, Ferrari and Hellstrom, Inc., Memo, August 24, 1999 1.

MrPP2 4 5 Page #5 Response Civil drawing documents Indicate pipe material for water, sewer and storm sewer lines. 9. The applicant will need to revise the lighting pan to provide a maximum of 10 fc and a minimum of 0.6 fc. Response Photometric plan has maximum of 90 fc and minimum of .6 fc. 10. A sidewalk detail will need to be added to the paving, grading and drainage detail sheet by the applicant. Response Civil drawing documents indicate sidewalk detail. 11. We suggest that handicap ramps and a pedestrian crossing be included to connect the sidewalks at the entrance of the circular drive on the south building.. Response Site Plans indicate handicap ramps and pedestrian crossings as requested. 12. Internal stop bars and signage will need to be added to the site plan as well as signage to designate one -way traffic through the roundabout. Response Intemal stop bars, signage and one -way traffic directional arrows are indicated on Site Plans and civil drawings. Police Department Memo, Auqust 24, 1999 1. Lighting locations should not conflict with landscaping (to include long term tree canopy growth). Response Landscape Architect has eliminated all conflicts between landscaping elements and light locations. 2. Adequate building lighting should be around perimeter of all sides, and pedestrian walkways surrounding the buildings. Response Adequate lighting Is provided around buildings and at pedestrian walkways. 3.

Example, wrought iron grill or chain link fencing. Response Architect is Investigating several options to provide ground level security at parking structure for both vehicles and pedestrians. Fire Marshall Memo, August 24, 1999 1. The circular driveways in front of Buildings 3 & 4 are not large enough to accommodate fire apparatus. They need to be increased to a minimum of a 45' radius. Response Scott Fetterman has approved the 42'6" circular drives as adequate for fire department apparatus. 2. The islands at the entrance to the circular driveways are too large and will not allow fire apparatus access. Response gp''2 4 7 Page #7 Landscape islands are changed to contrasting color pavers, level with drive and reflecting auto circulation patterns without interfering with fire apparatus navigation. Seacoast Utility Letter, August 19, 1999 1. The applicant needs to depict existing utility easements on the site plan. Response Utility easements are indicated on Architectural Site Plans, Civil and Landscape Plans. 2.

The 27 holes are to be private, restricted to members that will be residents of the project. All residential development parcels located in the southwestern community have been re- designed so that each lot will have frontage on either golf or water. Golf related amenities (clubhouse, fitness center, tennis and pool facility) have also been incorporated into the southwestern community. The northeastern residential community has also been re- designed to provide water frontage for all lots. Private recreation areas are also being planned for each of these areas. The surface water management plan is proposed for revision to change from the diked reservoir system to a lake system. The parkway cross - sections are being modified to locate utilities outside the road right -of -way (and within the parkway easement). Also, an additional curb is being located on the median side of the roadway pavement to allow landscape materials to be planted closer to the roadway at the time the initial improvements are constructed. The phasing of development is to generally follow a similar pattern of two phases but development is intended to occur throughout the entire project from the start. Initial site plan applications will include several residential parcels in both the southwest and northeast communities, the western PGA Blvd entrance, the sales center and gatehouse, as well as the Golf Digest Campus. All lakes and golf course holes are part of the first phase of development. COMPARISON OF APPROVED PLANS TO PROPOSED PLANS Overall the design concept of the master plan remains the same with the Golf Digest Campus and public golf course centrally located within the site, a gated residential community in the southwest area, a residential community in the northeast adjacent to the school and park sites, and a centrally located residential community adjacent to the Golf Digest Campus. The locations of the Parkways and the commercial, park, school, and golf digest maintenance parcels have all remained the same. The following is the comparison of the previously approved Master Plan and the plan currently under review for approval: O The golf courses have been designed to incorporate 27 holes of private golf into the private communities located in the southwest area of the project. O The private course has been designed to provide all lots in the southwest community with golf 3 181M V2 8 5 or water frontage. This modification will increase the value of these lots and increase the tax base of the City. O A 26.7 acre recreation area with a clubhouse, tennis and pool facilities has been added to the southwest community. O The 1.12 acre Community facility has been relocated to the area just north of the commercial parcel. O The sales center has been relocated to avoid conflicts with the entrance. O The corporate lodges proposed at the Golf Digest Campus have been removed and Club Cottage units have been added. O Golf Villas are being proposed as part of the Clubhouse parcel ( #17) located in the Southwest community. O Due to the relocation of the golf holes, the residential areas in the central area of the project have been re- designed. O The number of High- density parcels that front the Parkway have been reduced from 4 parcels to 1 parcel. O Direct access, from residential parcels to the Parkway, has been limited to one parcel. O The number of curb -cuts on the North -South Parkway have been reduced from 14 to 8 allowing for continuous Parkway landscape treatments. O Total wetland/upland/preserve areas have been increased. O Community serving open space has been increased. O Individual recreation areas for the Northeast and Central communities have been provided. O A golf maintenance facility has been added to the southwest community to provide golf maintenance for the private golf courses. O The Parkway sections have been modified to locate the utility easements outside the right -of- way and to note the locations of utilities within the right -of -way. O Minimum Parkway buffers adjacent to water management tracts have been increased in size. O The minimum and average East -West Parkway Buffer widths have been increased. O Development parcels in the Southwest community have been shifted north, further away from PGA Boulevard. 4 b*"28t Site Data CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL As part of the PCD amendment application, the petitioner requests that certain conditions be modified to take into account the delays associated with the modification of the project.

Surface Water Management System Conditions of Approval yet to be modified. 10 RR2 9 2 CONCERNS/ISSUES O Due to the reconfiguration of the golf courses, Golf Digest now has less of a presence in the project. It was this major golf entity and its reputation that made the project attractive from the start. Council's concern for the quality of the golf operation is evidenced in Condition #59. Staff will be seeking a policy determination from the City Council has to whether the developer is in compliance with the provisions of the condition with the redesigned project. O The parkway cross - sections are still 'averaged' to achieve a width consistent with the comprehensive plan requirement of 300'. Now, more water is used within the North -South Parkway to achieve the adequate (averaged) width. The City's parkway system has been recognized as an urban component of the Florida Greenways System. As this label suggests, the intent was to create linear greenways within the City versus waterways. O The re- configuration of the pods renews staffs concerns about the length of the roads without adequate turnarounds for public safety and utility vehicles. Condition #7 limits the length of roads to 1500 feet, consistent with general subdivision regulations. O At a February, 1999 City Council meeting, the Council directed staff to instruct the petitioner to modify plans so that PGA Boulevard could be shifted in a northerly direction away from the existing PGA National residences. The petitioner has refused to shift the right -of -way, but has worked with FDOT to shift the four -lane cross - section within the right -of -way. The short-term result is a 4 -lane cross - section located within the northerly portion of the right -of -way. However, the 2020 Plan identifies the need for a six -lane arterial to Ryder Cup Boulevard. The petitioner's proposal will not resolve the long -term issue of potential negative impacts to the PGA National residents due to the arterial. O Staff notes that improvements will need to be provided consistent with the Common Area Phasing Plan which will necessitate the submittal of landscape plans in the near future, however, we will agree to the time extension provided by the modified language in the conditions of approval. O The Golf Digest application for a PCD Plan Amendment is also accompanied by a proposal to change the approved surface water management system. Because the proposed changes are substantial, there has been a major effort on the part of the applicant, South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD), Seacoast Utility Authority (SUA), and the City at working through very complex technical issues in seeking acceptable solutions for all affected parties. Northern Palm Beach County Improvement District (NPBCID) has not been as active in the "process" to date; however they are keenly aware of the issues and City representatives are in constant communication with their staff. The structure of a development order for this project regarding surface water management is probably the most significant resource decision confronting the City since its existence. 11 "w 1w 2 9 3 As of the time for writing this report, SFWMD has not issued their staff report for an approved modification to the existing environmental resource permit (ERP). Further, not all technical issues with the City, SUA, and the applicant have been satisfactorily brought to a conclusion. Accordingly, staff can only offer a "status" report of issues and positions that are actively being pursued by all affected parties with the intent of arriving at mutually satisfactory conclusions: 1. It is a known fact by the applicant that the project is located adjacent to SUA's Hood Road wellfield and that the Level of Service (LOS) for potable water supply set forth in the City's Comprehensive Plan as well as SUA's service area will require a future wellfield withdrawal rate of 13.8 million gallons per day (mgd). The proposed surface water management system must (1) meet the City's LOS for flood control and (2) sustain a system performance during droughts that does not create any condition that would prohibit SUA from achieving the required withdrawal rates to deliver the City's LOS for potable water supply. Status - -- Staff is optimistic that technical information just received during the writing of this report will satisfy the conditions of this issue. The information continues to be very technical and complex; it will be reviewed as soon as possible to accommodate the tracking of this application. 2. An essential component to achieve the conditions set forth in No. 1 above, is the issuance of a permit to the applicant by SFWMD allowing the withdrawal of water from the C -18 Canal to augment water supplies necessary to sustain acceptable system performance. The applicant recognizes the necessity for obtaining the ability to withdraw water from C -18 and, in fact, the proposed water withdrawals have been included in the analysis and projected performance of the proposed surface water management system. However, the applicant has elected not to pursue this water use permit from SFWMD. Consequently, City staff and SUA staff have been confronted with the problem of analyzing and approving a surface water management system that characterizes a certain performance when one of the most significant components to the system essentially doesn't exist because it hasn't yet been permitted. Further, if the right to withdraw certain amounts of water from C -18 did not get permitted, the proposed surface water management system would technically fail and create a situation where SUA might not achieve the required wellfield withdrawals in order to sustain the City's level of service for potable water supply. Indeed, the most difficult issue during the past months has been how to resolve approving a surface water management system when all the components of the surface water management system do not exist. Status - -- Once again, through the technical creativity of all parties involved, there may be a way to hurdle this problem. 12 3. The fluctuation of lake levels within the proposed surface water management system varies dramatically depending upon how much water is available from C -18 during dry conditions. Based on the applicant's current proposal, lake levels can be as much as 4 feet below control elevation for extended periods of time. This is an important issue, because regardless of what disclosure goes into land sales documents, the future residents of this project are likely to find the lower water levels objectionable. If this should happen, City Council, NPBCID, and SUA will be the recipients of their objections; another Jog Road. Further, the future residents can constitute a community with the necessary interests and financial resources to seek relief from the lower water levels by taking action against SUA. This could jeopardize SUA's ability to provide potable water consistent with the City's LOS. Status - -- The projected water surface elevations for a selected 10 -year modeling period using three different scenarios for the availability of water from C -18 are currently being finalized. This issue will require a policy decision from the City and NPBCID as to what lake level fluctuations and duration are acceptable. 4. The technology used in modeling the performance of Golf Digest surface water management system and water budget is different than the technology used in evaluating the impacts of wellfield withdrawals by SUA. Accordingly, there is a concern that the technologies are not compatible in that one technology may be predicting acceptable system performance while the other technology would demonstrate system failure. Status - -- Staff is seeking a concurrence in consistent technology from SFWMD so that the City's decision regarding this development order will be based upon the reliance that SFWMD will be accepting technologies that do not create conflicting results in the analysis of Golf Digest's ERP permit and SUA's consumptive use permit. 5. If SUA is not satisfied with the proposed system, it has the option of initiating an objection through the Florida Administrative Procedures Act. Staff suggests that the City would be in a difficult position to approve a project when the City is the largest participant in a sister agency that is filing a formal objection. Status - -- The City and SUA have worked with great creativity at steering the problems and opportunities towards a mutually acceptable solution for all parties. 6. There are numerous other issues and/or conditions that will be articulated in a proposed development order. However, none of them are so critical as to prevent the project from moving forward at this time. Staff cannot offer a draft development order regarding this particular subject until (1) SFWMD issues their staff report and it is examined thoroughly by the City and (2) arriving at a surface water management system that achieves complete resolution of the above issues. 13 ippow29 5 RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends conditional' approval of the amendments to the Golf Digest PCD master plan and development order. The ordinance has been prepared as an amended and restated development order that contains the development order in its entirety. This will assist in the monitoring and will avoid confusion in the future. ' Conditioned upon the surface water management issues being resolved to the satisfaction of the City Engineer. 14 ftftft 1/23/00 ORDINANCE 8, 2000 AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PALM BEACH GARDENS, FLORIDA, PROVIDING FOR AMENDMENT OF ORDINANCE 21, 1998, THE DEVELOPMENT ORDER FOR THE GOLF DIGEST PLANNED COMMUNITY DISTRICT, BY ADOPTING AN AMENDED DEVELOPMENT ORDER; PROVIDING FOR AMENDMENT OF THE MASTER DEVELOPMENT PLAN TO RECONFIGURE GOLF AND RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT PARCELS; PROVIDING FOR MODIFIED CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL; PROVIDING FOR SEVERABILITY; PROVIDING FOR THE REPEAL OF ALL ORDINANCES OR PARTS OF ORDINANCES IN CONFLICT HEREWITH; AND PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE DATE.

She pointed out tha -r Alternate D was chosen by the majority, but the Mater Management District would not allow any permits- for the. area. Alternate C was the second choice. tt' Cemrissioner Roberts questioned the necessity of an alignment. County Engineer Rahlert responded that the l County ha•d done extensive studies regarding the - transportation needs for PGA boulevard and Donald Ross Road. As Donald Ross Road alone could not re -lieve the traffic impact on PGA boulevard, it vas necessary tQ utilize Hood Road. Therefore, he encouraged the Board to adopt an alignment. He noted the alignment was consistent with the Thoroughfare Plan and v a a s h o v n in the Comprehensive Plan to intersect Prosperity Farms Road.

The site has been acquired as a natural area by Palm Beach County with funds from the Palm Beach County Environmentally Sensitive Lands Bond Referendum of March 12, 1991. Matching funds.for the acquisition have been approved by the Florida Communities Trust through its Preservation 2000. Program. The City of Palm Beach Gardens was the County's partner in the grant application and will assist in the management of the site. The primary purpose of this acquisition is to preserve important remnants of mesic flatwoods, scrubby flatwoods, strand swamp, hydric hammock, depression marsh, wet flatwoods, and tidal marsh vegetation communities. The secondary purposes are to provide for passive recreation, environmental education, and scientific research. The acquisition and associated activities will assist the County and the City to implement several policies within their respective ' Comprehensive Plans. Mesic flatwoods, scrubby flatwoods, strand swamp, depression marsh, and hydric hammock are the ' predominant natural communities present on the site. Smaller areas of disturbed hydric hammock, wet flatwoods, tidal marsh, and disturbed tidal swamp communities also are present. The acquisition and management of this site preserves important habitat for rare plant and animal species, including 10 plant ' and 2 animal species that have been listed by at least one government agency or nonprofit environmental organization. Fire exclusion, cattle grazing, exotic pest plant invasions, hydrological alterations, construction of adjacent roads and buildings, and illegal dumping have impacted the site. In addition, managers face special challenges unique to fragmented natural communities located within urban and suburban environments. In recognition of the significance of the natural vegetation communities on the site, public use must remain limited to passive, non - consumptive recreation, environmental education, and scientific study. Footpaths, a handicapped- accessible nature trail, and an interpretive display will provide a valuable opportunity for the public to observe the site's distinctive natural communities and species, while also imparting an appreciation of their biological uniqueness. Scientific research will include monitoring of populations of rare and /or endemic species and evaluation of restoration and management activities. The City of Palm Beach Gardens may construct a nature center on a disturbed portion of the site, contingent upon the development and approval of an acceptable site plan. This management plan has been developed to achieve two major goals: 1) to provide specific information required by the Florida Communities Trust's Preservation 2000 Program and 2) to provide additional information and management recommendations so that management activities can begin promptly. A stewardship report will be provided to the Florida Communities Trust each year. The management plan will be reviewed at least once every five years by the Palm Beach County Natural Areas Management Advisory Committee and revised as necessary on the basis of new information, improvements in management techniques, or other relevant factors. B 7/7/98 ERM does not anticipate performing any scientific research other than compiling and interpreting the data from monitoring activities, but will allow researchers affiliated with local institutes of higher learning to conduct scientific research on a permit basis. Resource enhancement will be required in all management units at the Frenchman's Forest Natural Area. 4.9 GREENWAY /HOOD ROAD EXTENSION MANAGEMENT The City has proposed an extension of its Pedestrian /Nature Trailway system which would cross the natural area from east to west just north of the proposed Hood Road extension(Figures 6 and 7). The portions of the natural area's hiking trail that lie immediately north of the right -of -way reserved for the proposed extension have been designed so that they can be incorporated into the City's trailway system. The Pedestrian /Nature Trailway system consists of hard - surfaced trails screened by native plant landscape plantings that are located adjacent to major roads in an expanded road right -of -way. The implementation of this system on the natural area is currently dependent upon the construction of the Hood Road extension. The only action taken to date on the Hood Road extension is to reserve a future right -of -way. Construction of this extension is not on the County's five -year road plan, and ERM and the City are looking at alternative locations for this extension that would not cross the natural area. The Hood Road extension will likely be constructed only if the undeveloped land west of the natural area is developed. The City will have input into any development plans for this land through its development review process. The City also can implement the Trailway system if iR obtains an easement across the undeveloped land to connect to the present terminus of Hood Road. 'If the Pedestrian /Nature Trailway system is implemented across the natural area, ERM will coordinate with the City in the development and implementation of a management strategy for protecting and managing the Trailway system. If the proposed Hood Road extension is slated for construction across the project site, ERM will become involved in the design and engineering of the road extension to minimize the water quality and wildlife impacts, and will request that a pedestrian crossing and buffer plantings are included in the project design. Stormwater runoff from the road will not be allowed to discharge to the natural area unless it has been sufficiently pre- treated to remove sediments, petroleum products and other pollutants, and otherwise meets water quality standards. The treated stormwater runoff should also assist with the hydrological restoration of the project site. If the runoff does not meet these criteria, it will be required to discharge to either the Archie's Creek Canal or the Cabana Colony Canal. In order to minimize road kill of wildlife, ERM will request that a wildlife underpass with appropriate fencing be constructed so that the movement of wildlife is directed to a safe crossing point. 4 -11 B 717/98 11 elk � ~ G� a F40FLID LEGEND N ® Frenchman's Forest Natural Area ? :.

MET �s Field data i eluding vehicular and vessel- traffic counts, and bridge opening times; over" fourteen (14 day periods, June 29, 1999 to July 12, 1999 (Summer Cycle) and February 26,-,,'1999 to March 11 1999 (Winter Cycle), were collected and analyzed. Level of Se ice (LOS) analyses were performed utilizing two Highway Capacity Manual methods. The first me od is a straight forward capacity analysis of the roadway, considering it a multi -lane divided road ay with no consideration of the drawbridge delay. We will refer to this method as Highway C acity Multi -lane (HCM). The second method was developed for signalized intersections which we will refer to as Highway Capacity Signal (HCS). Here we are considering the same am unt of traffic as we did in the HCM method but this method allows us to consider time delays due to the openings. HCM MET OD: f The Level of §ervice of this method is calculated by comparing the density of traffic of the multi- lane divided roadway with its capacity. LOS is categorized into six conditions they are labeled "A" through "F ". An LOS of "A" represents free flowing traffic (best possible conditions), and an "F" is defined as forced or breakdown of the flow (worst conditions). An LOS of "C" is the desirable goal for peak hour traffic. HCS METH D: 1' The LOS for e HCS method is approached from a different perspective, that is,. "Driver Delay ". Results are als presented on an "A" to "F" scale, (See breakdown below). The Driver Delays the average delay time a driver experiences, due to the bridge openings. The delay is spread 1"f all traffic traversi g the study area during a signal cycle (opening to opening). It is assumed that all traffic during his period is distributed evenly., 1 Level of Service Breakdown A - less than a ten second delay. B - ten to twenty second delay C - .twenty to thirty -five second delay D - thirty -five to fifty -five second delay E - fifty -five to eighty second delay F - more than eighty second delay. Utilizing both methods and comparing the results, the impact of the bridge openings on traffic can be more easily understood. Both LOS methods are comparable to each other, that is, an LOS of "C" from the HCM method is considered the same as an LOS of "C" from the HCS method. Comparisons were made for the peak hour and average hour traffic for both weekdays and weekends during the fourteen day study periods. The Peak Hour is defined as the single one hour period that produced the most amount of traffic during the periods considered (weekday and weekend). The Peak hour calculations provide the worse case conditions observed during the period. The Average Hour represents a theoretical volume of traffic that each hour of the considered period experiences. It is obtained by dividing the total traffic count, for the considered period, by the number of hours in the period. This provides an abstract view of a typical conditions.

It is apparent that the bridge openings have an impact on 'ehicular traffic conditions. The HCM LOS study resulted in nothing worse ;:than a "C" -ring during the weekday peak hour in both directions. As stated previously this is an ►table condition. All other HCM scenarios resulted in "A" or `B ". The results of the HCS lations show an across the board LOS of "C" with the exception of winter east bound peak hour the LOS was "D ". This shows that in all scenarios the LOS was lowered at least one level -sult of the bridge openings. nes of vehicular and vessel traffic are greater in the winter. The average hourly vehicular traffic volume is 33% higher in the winter, and Peak Hour vehicular traffic volume is 39% higher during the winter. The average hourly vessel traffic is 57 % higher in the winter. Although traffic is rather high, the bridges has three lanes in each direction which accommodates fifty percent more traffic than a two lane roadway. the busiest period (winter week day) the average marine traffic was 2.42 vessels per hour, high of nine occurring once during the two week study period. An average of 1.6 vessels per ig, and an average of 1.45 openings per hour were counted, with a high of three openings is consistent with the. special regulation of the bridge. NDATTONS ve, an LOS of "C" exists in all scenarios except the winter east bound peak hour where Ahl Although this would be considered a borderline serious problem. It is our opinion that the is burden could be lessened. The bridge is already specially regulated. The traffic amounts vessel) will not go away. The only way to relieve the congestion is to change'the special lost of the openings that occurred were -for single vessels. Three scheduled opening per hour, i, is unnecessary. Its complicated and not easily remembered, and more difficult to plan )elieve that a two openings per hour, on the quarter hour and three quarter hour, special ,uld alleviate much of the congestion for the following reasons: There would be less openings, which translates to more free flow time per hour which in turn lessens the average driver delay time. Local residents, knowing the schedule would plan their travel around the openings thereby redistributing the traffic and actually decreasing the amount of vehicles in the queue during an opening. The quarter and three quarter opening times would coincide nicely with the hour and half hour schedule that was previously proposed for the nearby Parker bridge. say that the level of anxiety of those motorists who happen to catch an opening is what we K of the problem and leads to public complaint. It has been our experience that fewer �m the public, are registered on bridges with a regular, published opening schedule. We at a regulation of two openings per hour be placed on the bridge year - round. The bridge ;d appropriately to inform motorists and boaters of the opening schedule. • 3 VEHICULAR_TRAFFIC_STATISTICS The following statistics were obtained from the traffic counts that are provided in the back up data section located on page 10 of this report.
