ITEMS BY MAYOR AND
CITY COUNCIL
Vice Mayor Furtado Vice Mayor Furtado announced the WO had asked for the local
funding which was not going to be spent on the bullet train to be
allocated to various areas, which in the City's area would include
double tracking for Tri-Rail, a motor facility downtown, and
completion of State Road 710, which was being considered to go
through to Northlake Boulevard. The Vice Mayor explained she
had pushed for State Road 710 to instead be extended to
Okeechobee, and requested a letter of support be sent by the City.
The Vice Mayor expressed her opinion that septic tanks were a
long -term health issue and recommended no septic tanks within the
City. Discussion ensued. It was pointed out that the proposed
western equestrian community was designed to use septic tanks, and
it was recommended that criteria used by the Palm Beach County
Health Department be studied. Steeplechase residents had
requested septic tank information from the City. The Vice Mayor
agreed to bring back information regarding the septic tank issue and
State Road 710 issue. Vice Mayor Furtado requested a Resolution
to contribute $20,000 for the next design phase by the Northlake
Boulevard Task Force, and also a Resolution for a curfew for
juveniles if it was warranted.

meeting, formerly known as the Municipal League, which was
currently drafting a document for concurrency in education. A
presentation had been made by the County requesting support for
the recreation and the agricultural bond referendum. More
information was to be provided on the agricultural issue. Since the
referendum, if passed, would provide the City with $3.5 million for
a district park, the Mayor recommended that the City be a major
participant in education of the residents on this issue. Mayor Russo
reported he and the City Manager had met with Representative
Merchant, who would be sponsoring a bill for a $1 million park
grant for the City. The Mayor explained he had also met with

5,900 square feet of indoor restaurant use and 2,260 square feet of outdoor restaurant use. The
7.304 -acre site is located on the south side of PGA Boulevard, immediately east of its intersection
with Avenue of the PGA.
The applicant is requesting a rezoning to a PUD District. The proposed use of the property will be
consistent with both the existing land use designation of RH on the southern portion of the property,
and the recently approved land use designation of MXD (mixed use) on the northern portion of the
property. The current zoning designation for the subject site is Residential High Density (RH).
The Commons Parcel 1 is a 7.304 acre tract of vacant land located on the south side of PGA
Boulevard, immediately east of its intersection with Avenue of PGA. To the south of the subject
property is a canal and Tamberlane Residential Development. Immediately to the east of the subject
property is Woodland Lake Condominium project. The site is bounded to the north by vacant land
and to the west by Longwood residential development and Barnett Bank. The subject property was
recently approved with a land use change for the most northerly 5.2 acre portion of the property to
a designation of MXD - Mixed Use. The subject property currently has a zoning designation of RH
- Residential High Density. The applicant is requesting a zoning designation of Mixed Use Planned
Unit Development (PUD) for the entire 7.304 acre parcel.
The property is currently owned by the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation, but is
under contract for purchase by the Channing Corporation XXX. The Charming Corporation XXX
intends to develop the entire parcel as a mixed use development by providing a mix of retail,
restaurant, residential, and office uses including general and medical office uses. The development
is proposed to include 31 multi - family dwelling units, 14,212 square feet of general office use, 5,267
square feet of medical office use, 10,667 square feet of general retail use, 5,900 square feet of indoor
restaurant use and 2,260 square feet of outdoor restaurant use. The development will occur in a
single phase.
Project Details
The 31 dwelling units proposed for the parcel will be three (3), four (4) and six (6) unit townhomes.
The units are all two (2) stories with one (1) story edges. The residential lots are typically 80 to 90
feet in depth and 24 and 45 feet in width and will be sold on a fee simple basis. The residential
portion of the project may be accessed from the Avenue of PGA and PGA Boulevard through the
commercial portion of the site. A public gathering place within the residential portion of the
proposed development will allow residents the opportunity to socialize outdoors. The gathering
place is connected to the commercial portion of the proposed PUD, and will allow a simple
2
pedestrian connection between the site's uses.

the applicant must submit to city for review and approval.
Walkways
Sidewalks created with specialty pavers will provide pedestrian access to the site from the existing
sidewalk within the 55 foot buffer area along PGA Boulevard. Sidewalks are also proposed within
the residential portion of the development along both sides of the street. A walkway is proposed
from the southern residential area to the northern portion of the site connecting all uses proposed on
the property. This walkway will be delineated by pavers with a different color, texture, and scale
than those used in vehicular areas. The walkway will be slightly raised and will act as a traffic
calming device. Traffic calming is also encouraged by the use of trees along this walkway.
Landscaping along the edge of the walkway will also help to identify it as a pedestrian area.
3
Site Access
Vehicular access to the site is proposed from three (3) locations. One (1) access is directly off of
PGA Boulevard at the eastern-most edge of the subject property, and the other two (2) are located
along Avenue of PGA on the west side of the property. The site plan proposes 205 parking spaces
for the nonresidential portion and 94 spaces for the residential units. Staff reviewed the parking for
the nonresidential area based on the criteria used for shopping centers (1 /200s.f.). The applicant has
also submitted a parking analysis indicating peak period parking utilization and hourly variations
(see attached).
Lighting
The pedestrian areas will be highlighted with "acorn hat" light fixtures to provide adequate light for
safety purposes and also to establish a residential environment within the pedestrian areas. The
vehicular areas, however, will be lighted by 25 foot high top mounted poles.
Open /Common Space
Several areas have been provided for public use. These open areas are intended to be used as
meeting places by residents, employees, and patrons of the development. Specialty pavers and
fountain features are proposed throughout the entire development. There is one major area that is
a major focal point within the parcel, and is delineated on the site plan. The focal point will be
supported by landscaping and a piece of artwork, and will be the most northerly link between the
commercial and residential portions of the proposed PUD.
Waste Management
All dumpsters within the retail and office portion of the site will be located indoors in ventilated
rooms in rubber containers, for the cafe and restaurants, will be air - conditioned and the trash will
be bagged so as to reduce noise and minimize their impact on the development by screening them
from the public's view. Waste Management, Inc. supports this plan, subject to the conditions that
all of the dumpsters will be wheel -out dumpsters, and all of the loading zone areas will be walled
with a six (6) foot high wall. Townhomes will have driveway pick -up.

Memo To File
From: Mark Hendrickson, City Forester InIW-
Subject: PUD- 98 -03, The Commons Parcel
Date: September 21, 1998
I have reviewed the above - referenced project's plans submitted September 1, 1998 and provide
the following comments:
The petitioner is proposing to change the PGA Boulevard Landscape Plan/Sidewalk Plan
approved by City Council by Resolution 23, 1994. If approved, the new ordinance
should reference that the Commons Parcel 1 is partially modifying Sheet 3 of the PGA
Boulevard Streetscape approved by said resolution, specifically the south side of PGA
Boulevard east of Avenue of PGA to the Woodland Lakes PUD western boundary.
I do not support any open space waivers to eastern buffer area. The proposed mixed use
land use designation has commercial uses involved and should have a 15' wide buffer
with a 100% opaque visual barrier per Section 118- 279(h). This is a vacant piece of
property with no restrictions on it to prevent a developer from building a project per code.
If the proposed buildings can not fit on the site without a waiver, then the buildings need
to be reduced in size.
I recommend the following conditions, if this project goes on to City Council:
The applicant and successors shall maintain the landscaping within the road shoulder and
medians west of their project within the Avenue of PGA.
2. The applicant and successors shall maintain the landscaping within the canal easement
south of their project.
3. The applicant and successors shall pay one -half (1/2) of the continuous maintenance cost
for 470 linear feet to the City for the maintenance of the median of PGA Boulevard. A
reasonable fee shall be determined annually, paid in quarterly installments by the
property owner commencing on the first of November.

1,675 s.f. w/ 75 seats
The applicant is requesting a rezoning to a PUD District. The proposed use of the property
will be consistent with both the existing land use designation of RH on the southern. portion
of the property, the existing land use designation on the easternmost portion of the
property and the land use designation of MXD (mixed use) on the northern portion of the
property.
The Commons Parcel 2 is an 8.997 acre tract of vacant land located on the south side of
PGA Boulevard, immediately west of its intersection with Hickory Drive. To the west of the
subject property is the established Woodland Lakes condominium project. Immediately to
the east of the subject property is vacant land, also under contract to be developed by the
Channing Corporation XXX, as The Commons • Parcel 3. To the south of the subject
property is a residential development. The subject property was approved on December
17, 1998 for MXD - Mixed Use Land Use on the northern 4.0 acres of the site. The
southern 4.997 acres of the site has a Land Use Designation of RH - Residential High
Density. The subject property currently has a zoning designation of RM - Residential
Medium Density. The applicant is requesting a zoning designation of Mixed Use Planned
Unit Development (PUD) for the entire 8.997 acre parcel.
The property is currently owned by the John D. And Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation,
but is under contract for purchase by the Channing Corporation XXX. The Channing
Corporation XXX intends to develop the north section of the parcel as a mixed use
development by providing a mix of retail, restaurant, residential, and office uses including
general and medical office uses. The development is proposed to include 8 apartment
units totaling 10,420 square feet, 6,606 square feet of general office use, 7,'150 square feet
of medical office use, 12,654 square feet of general retail use, 3,300 square feet of indoor
restaurant use and 1,675 square feet of outdoor restaurant use. The south section of the
parcel is zoned as Residential - High Density (RH), and is proposed to include 17 multi-
family dwelling units. The development will occur in a single phase.
PROJECT DETAILS:
RESIDENCES:
The 17 multi - family dwelling units proposed for the parcel will be three (3) and four (4) unit
townhomes. Each townhome will be approximately 1,550 square feet in size. The units
are all two (2) stories with one (1) story edges. The residential lots are typically 85 to 95
feet in depth, and are between 24 feet and 61 feet in width. The residential lots will be sold
on a fee simple basis. All of the residential units will be afforded a view of the canal to the
south of the proposed development. The residential portion of the project may be
accessed from Hickory Drive or from the commercial portion of the development. A public
gathering place within the residential portion of the proposed development (see attached
Site Plan) will allow residents the opportunity to socialize outdoors. The gathering place
is connected to the commercial portion of the proposed PUD and will allow a simple
pedestrian connection between the site's uses. The commercial portion will include eight
(8) apartments located over the commercial businesses. These apartments shall be rental
units that vary in size between 895 square feet and 1,443 square feet.
PERMITTED USES:
The permitted uses for the project will be approved as a condition of approval, and the
following uses shall be permitted with the Planned Unit Development:

OPEN /COMMON SPACE:
Several areas have been provided for public use. These open areas are intended to be
used as meeting places by residents, employees, and patrons of the development.
Specialty pavers and fountain features are proposed throughout the entire development.
There is one major area that is a major focal point within the parcel, and is delineated on
the site plan. The focal point will be supported by landscaping and a piece of artwork, and
will be the most northerly link between the commercial and residential portions of the
proposed PUD.
LANDSCAPING:
The existing sidewalk system along PGA Boulevard will be slightly realigned as a result of
this project, but will remain with connections branching southward to provide access to the
subject property. Oak trees will line the sidewalk system and provide shade for
pedestrians. Within the focal area or gathering place will be a formal and open landscape
architectural theme. This will allow views for passers -by without having a walled effect.
Informal and more closed landscape architecture will occur between the gathering place
area, which will provide more privacy and will "soften" the effect of the structures.
WASTE MANAGEMENT.-
All dumpsters within the retail and office portion of the site will be located indoors in
ventilated rooms in rubber containers, for the cafe and restaurants, will be air - conditioned
and the trash will be bagged so as to reduce noise and minimize their impact on the
development by screening them from the public's view. Waste Management, Inc. supports
this plan, subject to the conditions that all of the dumpsters will be wheel -out dumpsters,
and all of the loading zone areas will be walled with a six (6) foot high wall. Townhomes
will have driveway pick -up.
C
PARKING:
The number of parking spaces required for the townhomes is 44, and 57 spaces are being
provided. The number of parking spaces being provided for the mixed -use section
(commercial /apartments) is 170. The justification for the 170 parking spaces in the mixed -
use section is detailed in an analysis prepared by David Plummer & Associates dated July
13, 1998 that indicates peak period parking utilization and hourly variations (see
attachment). Staff also reviewed the parking for the mixed -use section based on the
criteria used for shopping centers (1/200 square feet), and estimated the required parking
for the mixed -use section to be 173 spaces.
SIGNAGE:
No signage is being proposed as part of this application. The applicant requested
additional time to determine the exact type of signage and appropriate location thereof.
When a signage package is completed, the applicant shall submit it to the City for review
and approval.
BUFFERS:
Although there is an existing hedge between the subject property and the Woodland Lakes
condominium project to the west, no new hedges, walls, or fences are being proposed
around most of the development. Florida Gamma Grass (Tripsacum Floridana), Lily Turf
(Liriope Muscari), Cocoplum, and Medium Live Oak Trees (Quercus Virginia) will be used
on the western edge of the site to buffer the project from the neighboring residents. A six
(6) foot high wall is also being proposed along the parking area to buffer the residential
district to the south from the proposed commercial area. The proposed landscape plan
provides 13,110 points, which is 6,091 more points than the required 7,019.
WALKWAYS:
Sidewalks created with specialty pavers will provide pedestrian access to the site from the
existing sidewalk within the 55 foot buffer area along PGA Boulevard. Sidewalks are also
proposed within the residential portion of the development along both sides of the street
(Hickory Drive). A walkway is proposed from the southern residential area to the northern
portion of the site connecting all uses proposed on the property. This walkway will be
delineated by pavers with a different color, texture, and scale than those used in vehicular
areas. The walkway will be slightly raised and will act as a traffic calming device. Traffic
calming is also encouraged by the use of trees along this walkway. Landscaping along the
edge of the walkway will also help to identify it as a pedestrian area.
SITE ACCESS:
Vehicular access to the site is proposed from three (3) locations. One (1) access is directly
off of PGA Boulevard at the western -most edge of the subject property, and the other two
(2) are located along Hickory Drive on the east side of the property. One hundred feet
have been provided for stacking at the PGA Boulevard egress, and at the most northerly
Hickory Drive egress point. City traffic engineers have found that this project meets
concurrency.
LIGHTING:
The pedestrian areas will be highlighted with "acorn hat" light fixtures to provide adequate
light for safety purposes and also to establish a residential environment within the
pedestrian areas. The vehicular areas, however, will be lighted by 25 foot high top
mounted poles.
STAFF'S REVIEW & COMMENTS:
Building Division:
Building Official Jack Hanson has reviewed the plans and has indicated that he has no
concerns regarding the project at this time. Mr. Hanson could not comment on the signs
because a detailed sign package has not yet been submitted.
Engineering:
Assistant City Engineer Tammy Jacobs has reviewed the revised plans for the proposed
project, and her comments are attached to this report. Mrs. Jacobs has recommended
several conditions of approval, which have been included in the list of conditions for
approval put forth in this report and the ordinance drawn up for this project.
Utilities:
Seacoast Utility Authority requested the applicant submit conceptual utility service (water,
sewer, gas and wire) plans for review, and the applicant complied. Seacoast has no
comments at this time regarding this project.
Fire
Scott Fetterman, Assistant Chief /Fire Marshall, has no further concerns regarding access.
Police Department.
The Police Department has submitted a list of recommendations to which the applicant has
responded. Sergeant Jay Spencer is continuing to request a pedestrian connection across
the entrance to Avenue of the PGA and the western entrance to Parcel 2 as shown at the
entrance to Hickory Drive and the eastern entrance to Parcel 3. He is also requesting two
(2) additional deceleration lanes along PGA Boulevard (eastbound); the first at the western
entrance to Parcel 2, and the second at the entrance to Hickory Drive. The applicant has
responded that the number of expected turning movements does not warrant more
deceleration lanes based on the City's traffic impact review.
Planning & Zoning Division:
City Forester Mark Hendrickson has also reviewed the plans and has made several
comments and suggestions regarding this project. Mr. Hendrickson's comments are
8
attached to this report, and include his comment that the required 15 -foot landscape buffer
along Hickory Drive (adjacent to a residential area) is not shown on the plans.
Mr. Hendrickson has added some conditions of approval, which require the applicant to
maintain landscaping in the medians on Hickory Drive and within the canal easements.
The applicant shall also be required to pay half of the maintenance costs for the medians
adjacent to the site along PGA Boulevard.
Mr. Hendrickson has reviewed the most recent draft of the conditions and has some
comments. His concerns include the location of drainage and utility easements and the
use of outdoor display along the PGA Boulevard Corridor. Mr. Hendrickson's concerns
have been addressed with the conditions of approval.
Public Works Department.
Bob Patty, Public Works Director, has also reviewed the plans and has made three
comments regarding the project and the need to properly maintain the water /drainage
conveyance of the canal on site. First, Public Works will need an access point into the
area surrounding the canal. Secondly, Public Works needs a twenty (20) foot maintenance
easement or clear zone next to the canal. Finally, the ground cover along the bank of the
canal shall be short in height. These requests have been added as conditions of approval.
The applicant has submitted a canal cross - section acceptable to Mr. Patty. It is now being
considered by South Florida Water Management District. On October 28, 1998 the
applicant met with City Staff to discuss the proposed cross - sections. The applicant has
agreed to submitting detailed cross - sections to the City Engineer for approval. The
detailed cross - sections were submitted on January 4, 1999, and are currently being
reviewed by the Assistant City Engineer and the Director of Public Works. The applicant
is also currently working on the final details of the landscaping along the canal banks.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION (monitoring entity):
The staff recommends approval of petition PUD -98 -04 with the previously listed conditions
from the Planning and Zoning Commission, and the following condition:
1. Prior to the issuance of the first building permit, sidewalks on both sides of Hickory
Drive shall be indicated on the construction plans and be completed prior to the issuance
of the first Certificate of Occupancy. (Building)
CITY COUNCIL - FIRST READING (1121/99)
At its January 21, 1999 meeting, City Council expressed its concern regarding the
proposed permitted uses with the project. The Council stated that it believed that a
"gymnasium or fitness center" within the uses requested by the applicant, and "church" and
"nursery or day care" as permitted uses for the project (which are permitted uses listed
under the Commercial Neighborhood - CN zoning district), would not be appropriate for this
project. Council further stated that a workshop would be conducted at the February 4,
1999 City Council meeting to review the proposed uses for the project. Finally, Council
stated that a sidewalk would only be necessary along the southwest side of Hickory Drive.
RECENT STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS & REVISIONS
Staff recommends that the listed CN district use of "laundry, self - service" be specifically
eliminated from the allowable uses on the site; the revised ordinance for the project reflects
this recommendation. Furthermore, Staff has revised condition #2 in the ordinance so that
the criteria for administrative approval of outdoor seating is more clearly understood.
Condition #4 was also revised because only one (1) access point (instead of 2) is needed
for maintenance of the canal area. The future sign approval process (condition #9) was
also revised; future signs will only be reviewed by City Council (the Planning and Zoning
Commission will no longer be involved in the process). Staff has also amended condition
#21 so that a conversion of use, that involves no more than 5% of the total approved
commercial /retail square footage, can be approved administratively. This condition ( #21)
was revised because it is unlikely that the commercial /retail. area will be leased to
businesses at the exact percentage as is being stated now in this report. .
CITY COUNCIL - WORKSHOP FOR PROPOSED USES (2/4199)
At its February 4, 1999 meeting, City Council expressed the need for the following
revisions:
The use of "travel agency" shall be included in the list of permitted uses for the
project.
Condition #1 of ordinance revised to reflect this change.
2. Restaurant kitchens and garbage enclosures shall have filtered exhaust systems
that comply with the City's Land Development Regulations.
Condition #27 has been added to the ordinance to reflect this change.
City Council also expressed concern regarding the proposed use of "health club ". Council
requested that the applicant submit more information (especially regarding the maximum
square footage that would be permitted) if the applicant continued to desire that use of
"health club" be permitted on the site.

Memo To File
From: Mark Hendrickson, City Forester A // "
Subject: PUD- 98 -03, 04 and 05, The Commons Parcels 1, 2 and 3 (site plan review)
Date: December 30, 1998
I have reviewed the most recent site plan submittals for the above - referenced projects and
provide the following comments:
This is the fast time I have not requested curbing around the planters in front of the
residential units. Most of them are larger than what occurred in PGA National M -3 and
Mira Floras or what is being proposed in Catalina Lakes and Marina Gardens. I will be
monitoring these sites to see how these planters hold up over time.
If maintenance problems start to occur with these areas before the projects are finished, I
believe the developer and I can work out a solution. One idea is to use the same paver
blocks used on the driveways to create a modified curb in the areas hardest hit by car
traffic.
Some of the building elevations, for example A -3.1 west elevation - Building "B ",
continue to show the pergola attached to the building. I know this has been resolved and
floor plans are correctly showing the detached pergola.
None of the drawings show elevations of the "optional awnings" over the outdoor seating
areas. None of the drawings indicate a typical table and chair within the outdoor
restaurant dining area. I predict that the City would want the outdoor dining areas to be
compatible to the surrounding buildings, hardship and landscaping. I recommend that.all
outdoor dining areas be reviewed and approval by the applicant (developer), prior to the
petitioner submitting their design to City staff for administrative approval, per the
outdoor seating code.
Memo To File
From: Mark Hendrickson, City Forester A!4
Subject: PUD- 98 -03, 04, 05, The Commons Parcels 1, 2 and 3 (ordinance review)
Date: December 30, 1998
I have reviewed the above - referenced project's proposed ordinances and provide the following
comments:
For example: Parcel I, conditions 8, 9 and 10 all relate to indicating drainage or utility
easements on the landscape plans, and authorization from the various easement holders to
approve the landscaping after City Council has approved the landscape plans. At the time
of City Council approval, there should not be any conflicts between drainagetutilities and
landscaping. This is never the case.
There should be a note to each of the previously mentioned conditions that states that the
City Engineer and the City Forester shall work with the petitioner and the utility
companies to resolve any conflicts, with the intent being that the landscape design shall
not be changed significantly. If the conflict can not be resolved, the Site Plan and
Appearance Review Committee shall intervene.
Condition 20 deals with outdoor display not extending more than four (4) feet from the
adjacent business. This condition is in direct conflict with the PGA Boulevard Corridor
overlay, by becoming an extension of a business area, similar to the outdoor restaurant
space, into the 55' wide PGA Boulevard corridor. It also requires a waiver from the
Section 98- 66(b)(4). which requires outdoor sales to be screened from public view,
Staff has all ready had this conversation with the petitioner with regard to the outdoor
restaurant seating. The petitioner has agreed to not extent restaurant business into the 55'
PGA corridor. This general guideline should be applied to all businesses.
Condition 20 should be amended to read "The display area shall not extend into the 55'
PGA Boulevard Corridor. Exceptions may be made for special events as approved by the
City."

BACKGROUND:
February 11, 1999
The Commons Parcel 3 is a 12.266 -acre tract of vacant land located on the south side of PGA Boulevard,
immediately east of its intersection with Hickory Drive. To the east of the subject property is vacant land,
which is zoned Commercial. Immediately to the west of the subject property is vacant land, also under
contract to be developed by the Channing Corporation XXX, as The Commons Parcel 2. Directly to the
south of the subject property is a canal. Further south of the canal is a residential development, which is
part of the JDM plat. This petition was before the City Council for a workshop on November 19, 1998, at
which time, the Council members did not have any concerns. On January 21, 1999, this petition was
before the City Council for First Reading. Council members discussed proposed uses and scheduled a
Workshop meeting on February 4, 1999 to further discuss the matter.
The property is currently owned by the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation, but is under
contract for purchase by the Channing Corporation XXX. The Channing Corporation XXX intends to
develop the entire parcel as a mixed use development by providing a mix of retail, restaurant, residential,
and office uses including general and medical office uses. See table below.
Residential: 11 Office: 11 General Retail: 11 Restaurant:
21 Townhomes

The development will occur in a single phase.
REVIEW PROCESS:
This is a request for re- zoning and PUD approval. The PUD request is reviewed by the Development
Review Committee, who forwards comments and recommendations to the Planning and Zoning
Commission. After review of the proposed PUD at a workshop meeting, the Planning and Zoning
Commission shall schedule a public hearing for which the applicant shall provide proper notice to
surrounding property owners. At this meeting, the Planning and Zoning Commission shall prepare a
record of the proceedings and transmit them to the City Council, along with their recommendation. The
City Council shall hold a public hearing after giving due public notice. The City Council reviews the
request for PUD approval for consideration of approval, approval with conditions, or denial.
The City's Development Review Committee (DRC) discussed the request at their August 18, 1998
meeting. A listing of the various departmental comments is attached for your review.

LAND USE AND ZONING:
February 11, 1999
The subject property was approved on December 17, 1998 for a land use designation change from RM -
Residential Medium Density to MXD - Mixed Use for the most northerly 9.6 acre portion of the property.
The subject property currently has a zoning designation of RM - Residential Medium Density. The
applicant is requesting a zoning designation of Mixed Use Planned Unit Development (PUD) for the
entire 12.266 -acre parcel.
Due to the location of this property on PGA Boulevard and the requirements of the PGA Boulevard
corridor overlay, the proposed development will trigger the requirement for a re- zoning to a Planned Unit
Development District. In addition, all mixed use districts are required to be developed as PUDs.
Therefore, the applicant is also requesting for re- zoning to a PUD District.
PROJECT DETAILS:
Traffic Concurrency
Vehicular access will be provided from Hickory Drive at the westernmost edge of the property and from
the commercial portion of the development off PGA Boulevard (see site plan). One hundred feet have
been provided for stacking at all egress points. Some traffic improvements will be required as a result of
this development. They include:
• southbound left turn lane along Hickory Drive.
• westbound left turn lane along the PGA Boulevard full access entrance.
These improvements have been shown on the site plan. City traffic engineers have found that this project
meets concurrency.
Residential Buildings
Twenty -one of the residential units. proposed for the parcel will be two, three and four -unit townhomes.
The units are all two stories with one story edges and will contain an estimated 1,550 square feet of
enclosed living area. The residential .lots are typically 85 feet in depth and between 25 and 40 feet in
width and will be sold on a fee simple basis.
Commercial Buildings
There are twelve commercial buildings proposed, which will be one, two and three stories. Four of the
buildings with have three stories with apartments above retail. The parking lot will be screened from the
adjacent homeowners' view with a 6 -foot buffer wall. With eight units per building, these apartments will
be on both the second and third floors of these buildings and will range in size from 811 square feet to
1,443 square feet. Providing residential units above commercial uses is one of the unique combinations
mixed use development allows.

Waste Management
Townhouses shall have driveway, curbside pick -up of trash. Trash from retail, office and rental
apartments shall be collected in rubber containers inside the buildings in ventilated rooms. Trash from
cafes, restaurants and other food - serving establishments shall be bagged and contained in air - conditioned
rooms within the buildings.
Dumpsters will be located indoors on the first floors in the rear of the buildings along with a four garage
parking spaces (see site plan for location). Waste Management, Inc. supports this plan, subject to the
conditions that all of the dumpsters will be wheel -out dumpsters, and all of the loading zone areas (which
will be located adjacent to the dumpster areas) will be screened with a 6 -foot high wall.
Public Places
There are three public gathering places proposed within the commercial/apartment portion of the
proposed development (see site plan). One will be a primary gathering place and the other two are
secondary. These areas will be heavily landscaped and will contain public artwork. Connected to the
commercial portion of the proposed PUD, these gathering places will allow a simple pedestrian
connection between the site's uses. Specialty pavers and fountain features are proposed throughout the
commercial portion of the development with multiple connections to sidewalks.
Agenda Cover Memorandum
Page 6
February 11, 1999
Sidewalks and Pedestrian Areas
The existing sidewalk system along PGA Boulevard will be slightly realigned as a result of this project,
but will remain with connections branching southward to provide access to the subject property. Oak
trees will line the sidewalk system and provide shade for pedestrians. Within the focal area or gathering
place will be a formal and open landscape architectural theme. This will allow views- for passers -by
without having a walled effect. Informal and more closed landscape architecture will occur between the
gathering place area, which will provide more privacy and will "soften" the effect of the structures.
Sidewalks created with specialty pavers will provide pedestrian access to the site from the existing
sidewalk within the 55 foot buffer area along PGA Boulevard. Sidewalks are also proposed within the
residential portion of the development along both sides of the street. A walkway is proposed from the
southern residential area to the northern portion of the site connecting all uses proposed on the property.
This walkway will be delineated by pavers with a different color, texture, and scale than those used in
vehicular areas. The walkway will be slightly raised and will act as a traffic calming device. Traffic
calming is also encouraged by the use of trees along this walkway. Landscaping along the edge of the
walkway will also help to identify it as a pedestrian area.
The pedestrian areas will be highlighted with "acorn hat" light fixtures 14 feet high to provide adequate
light for safety purposes within the pedestrian areas. The vehicular areas will be lighted by 25 foot high
top mounted poles. Two styles of decorative wall- mounted lights have been submitted as well.
Parking
The site plan proposes 424 parking spaces for the commercial /apartments portion and 68 spaces for the
townhome units. Staff reviewed the parking for the nonresidential area based on the criteria used for
shopping centers (1/200 s.f.). The applicant has also submitted a parking analysis indicating peak period
parking utilization and hourly variations. Parking spaces closest to the commercial buildings will have a
paving tapestry for a decorative effect.
Si.enaze
No signage is being proposed as part of this application. The applicant will submit a sign package at a
later date, subject to review and approval by the City. However, the applicant has submitted a color
scheme, which will be presented at this meeting.

DEPARTMENTAL COMMENTS:
February 11, 1999
Building
Building Official Jack Hanson has reviewed the plans and has indicated that he has no concerns regarding
the project at this time. Mr. Hanson could not comment on the signs because a detailed sign package has
not yet been submitted.
EnQineerinz

comments, which are attached to this report. She has recommended six conditions of approval.
Utilities
Seacoast Utility Authority has no concerns at this time.
Fire
Scott Fetterman, Assistant Chief/Fire Marshall, has no further concerns regarding access.
Forester
City Forester Mark Hendrickson had also reviewed the plans and had made several comments and
suggestions regarding this project. Mr. Hendrickson has added some conditions of approval, which
require the applicant to maintain landscaping in medians on Hickory Drive and within canal easements.
The petitioner will also be required to pay half of the maintenance costs for the medians adjacent to the
site on PGA Boulevard.
Public Works
Bob Patty, Public Works Director, has also reviewed the plans and has made three comments regarding
the project and the need to properly maintain the water /drainage conveyance of the canal on site. First,
Public Works will need one access point out of the canal area. Secondly, Public Works needs a twenty
(20) foot maintenance easement or clear zone next to the canal. Finally, the ground cover along the bank
of the canal should be no higher than three (3) feet. These requests have been added as conditions of
approval.
The applicant has submitted a canal cross - section. It is now being considered by South Florida Water
Management District. Also, on October 28, 1998 the applicant met with City Staff to discuss the
proposed cross - sections. The applicant has submitted detailed cross - sections (11- 17 -98) to the City

CITY COUNCIL MEETINGS
February 11, 1999
On January 21, 1999, this petition was before the City Council for first reading. At this meeting, it was
determined that a workshop should be held to discuss the proposed uses for this site.
The Council members felt that the following uses would not be appropriate for this site: a gymnasium,
fitness center, church, or a nursery / day care facility. Staff recommended'that the listed Neighborhood
Commercial (CN) district use of "laundry, self - service" be specifically eliminated from the allowable uses
on the site.
On February 4, 1999, the City Council discussed the proposed uses. The members decided to include
travel agency as a permitted use and to include a condition of approval which would regulate the odors
generated from the restaurants. The members also directed the applicant to continue to work on an
acceptable proposal for a fitness center (5,000 square feet is too large for this project).
Attached to this report is an amendment to Ordinance 9, 1999

We have reviewed the Canal Cross Sections prepared by Keshavarz & Associates, revised Site
Plan prepared by Oliver & Glidden & Partners and revised Landscape Plan prepared by
Environment Design Group received December 10, 1998. We offer the following comments:
1) Previously Satisfied.
2) Conditionally Satisfied. The applicant has provided cross - sections that provide a sufficient
maintenance shelf and landscaping acceptable to the City. As a condition of approval, the
applicant will utilize existing material and grade the canal right -of -way per the proposed
cross - sections. Under no circumstances should the contractor utilize the excess fill from the
canal right -of -way to improve the Commons site. The Public Works Department will then
access the canal easement to perform the needed maintenance dredging and utilize the excess
material to complete the cross - sections at the water's edge. Further, the timing for completion
of the canal improvements will need to be determined by staff and an additional condition
drafted accordingly.
3) Conditionally Satisfied. The applicant has provided Paver Clarification Details prepared by
Oliver Glidden & Partners dated December 23, 1998. The details specify that the 4" double
striping will be comprised of white pavers and the 2' overhang area will be comprised of
white pavers. Prior to construction plan approval, the applicant shall submit to the City for
review and approval samples of the contrasting paver colors to be used for handicap diagonal
striping within the 5' access aisle and handicap pavement symbols.
4) Conditionally Satisfied. Prior to construction plan approval, the applicant will need to
provide additional preventative measures to prevent vehicles from jumping the raised curbing
and entering the pedestrian plaza. We suggest the use of additional bollards, light poles or
trees place at the center of each parking space abutting the pedestrian plaza similar to Parcel 2
Landscape Plan, sheet L2.
5) Previously Satisfied.
