This asbestos investigation was conducted by Gaudet and Associates with positive results. As a result of these examinations all asbestos must be abated from structures prior to the onset of construction or demolition. The Fire Department Station #1 is begin construction remodeling upon endorsement of a construction contract. The abatement must be concluded prior to the start of construction. Staff recommendation is to select the qualified lowest bidder, Simpson and Associates for abatement of asbestos to Fire Station #1. Memorandum To: Bobbie Herakovich, City Manager From: Pa}41 Fried�►an, abagement Administrator Subject: Fire Station - #1 [Asbestos Abatement] Re: Recommendation for award of bid Date: April 24,1998 An RFP was prepared and advertised for the abatement of asbestos located at Fire Station # 1 as a result of the examination for the presence of asbestos conducted by Gaudet and Associates, Inc. This bid award is only for the abatement of the asbestos located at Fire Station #1. Additional RFP's will be prepared prior to future abatements for other City structures. All bidders participated in a pre bid meeting conducted by Jack Hanson and the Construction Manager, Bill Mignogna. All bidders are qualified and the bids submitted are as follows: Simpson & Associates $9,600.00 Enviorem, Inc. 10,803.63 Decon Environmental & Engineering 12,267.00 Sal's Abatement Corp. 13,890.00 Upon submission and review it was noticed that there was some technical irregularities with Simpson &Associates bid submission. Information was clarified with the bidder by Bill Mignogna, Construction Manager as to the understanding concerning the scope of the service to be provided. This matter was also reviewed by the Finance Director, Kent Olson and same advised that this technical irregularity did not preclude the bidder Simpson and Associates from consideration. It is the Construction Managers endorsement with Staff s concurrence that the bid be awarded to the lowest bidder Simpson and Associates, Inc. to perform asbestos abatement procedures at Fire Station #1 for the fee of $9600.00 cc: file /asbl AWR -24 -98 FRI 2:31 PM 0, N & M, ENG, FAX N0, 561 471 0442 P. 1 O'DONNELLt NACCARATO & MIGNOGNAt INC.

JACKSON, P.E., ASSOCIATE We have reviewed the four proposals for the Fire Station Abatement Project. The fee to do the work ranges from $9,600.00 to $13,890.00. There are some irregularities or technicalities that have occurred with the lowest bidder. Their corporate seal is not on the proposal form in my possession, but supposedly, is on one of the other copies. The low bidder did not provide the Addendum #1 which was supposed to be signed stating that they understood that they needed to provide the unit prices for the two items noted, but also that they must comply with items 2 and 3 on the addendum. They apparently have signed and sent it to Gaudet Associates, Inc. This therefore becomes a legal matter as to whether or not you can wave these informalities or technicalities In order to determine which contractor can be awarded this project. If you agreed to waive these technicalities, we recommend awarding Simpson & Associates the work. Please feel free to contact me if you have any further questions regarding this matter.

MILITARY TRAIL • PALM BEACH GARDENS, FLORIDA 334144698 TO: Greg Dunham, Assistant City Manager FROM: Bob Patty, Director of Public Works DATE: April 27, 1998 RE: Construction of a Metal Roof Frame Fire Storage Facility To accommodate the storage needs of the Fire Department, Public Works has located a metal roof structure that was publicly bid and is on contract with the Town of Jupiter. The contractor (Select Contracting, Inc.) agreed to price out the same square foot price of $8.49 that was bid on the Town of Jupiter's contract. Staff also contacted Ahrens Co. for the identical structure and their bid was $1,073.00 higher than Select Contracting, Inc. Attached are copies of the Select Contracting, Inc.'s proposal to the City and a copy of the Jupiter contract. The Fire Department's metal structure would be 45' x 50' x 15', clear or twenty two hundred and fifty square feet (2,250 sq. ft.), at $8.49 per sq. ft. at a total cost of $19,101.00. Public Works budgeted for a similar structure at the Public Works yard in this year's budget (Account # 01- 3000 - 539.6350). The structure can be used by the Fire Department until their needs are satisfied and then moved to the Public Works yard. (See memo to City Manager, dated March 30, 1998.) At this time, I am recommending Council consider a motion to piggy back off the current Town of Jupiter contract of $8.49 per square foot, and award the metal roof frame structure to Select Contracting, Inc. for a sum not to exceed $19,101.00. Should you have any questions regarding the attached information, please call me. I am available to the Council, at the next available agenda, if there are any questions regarding this proposal. Cc: Bobby Herakovich, City Manager file CITY OF PALM BEACH GARDENS 10SOO N. MILITARY TRAIL • PALM BEACH GARDENS, FLORIDA 334144698 MEMORANDUM TO: Bobbie Herakovich, City Manager Q FROM: Bob Patty, Director of Public Works SUBJECT: Fencing Purchase (Temporary Central Fire Station Relocation — Westminster Church Site) DATE: March 30, 1998 The Public Works Department has budgeted $150,000.00 in account # 01- 3000 - 539.6350 for improvements and renovations for the 1998 budget year. Public Works estimated spending $100,000 on a new crib facility, and $50,000 for fencing and yard improvements. Included in the plans for the yard improvements is an overhang for field equipment storage. At this time the Fire Department is in need of a shelter to house some of the apparatus from Station 1 as well as a fenced in compound in order to secure the equipment from Public access at the Westminster Church site, during remodeling of the Central Fire Station. These two items, the shelter and fencing are identical to the budgeted Public Works improvements. At this time, I feel it would best serve the City's need if the shelter and fencing were purchased out of the Public Works budget, account # 01- 3000 - 539.6350, and be utilized by the Fire Department until the renovations at the Central Fire Station are completed. These items could then be dismantled and relocated to the Public Works site and reassembled as originally planned. This would only delay the completion of the Public Works compound renovations by the length of time required to complete Fire Station # 1. The Public Works Department is in the process of securing a State or Local bid for the shelter, but has been unsuccessful to date in obtaining this information. The Department has secured a fencing price from Martin Fence Company utilizing the Broward County contract T- 03- 97- 18 -12, copy attached. I am recommending Council consider a motion to "piggy back" off of the Broward County fencing contract and hire Martin Fence Company for the fencing required at the Westminster site. The requested amount is $13,714.79; $8,945.75 for fencing & installation, $4,769.04 for two (2) automatic gates with electric operators & installation. This material will be relocated and utilized at the Public Works Facility upon completion of the Central Fire Station renovations. I will make myself available for the Council meeting to address any concerns. Should you have any questions, please advise. cc: Greg Dunham, Assistant City Manager Jonathan Iles, Public Works Supervisor File Select Contracting, Inc.

Russo in the City Council Chambers of the Municipal Complex located at 10500 North Military Trail, Palm Beach Gardens, Florida; and opened with the Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag. ROLL CALL The following elected officials were found to be in attendance: Mayor Joseph R. Russo, Councilman David Clark, and Councilman Carl Sabatello. Chairman Pro Tern Eric Jablin arrived at 7:39 p.m. Vice Mayor Lauren W. Furtado was absent from the meeting. CONSTRUCTION MANAGER REPORT Construction Manager Bill Mignogna provided an update on the Municipal Complex project, for which groundbreaking was scheduled in early June and target date for completion was December 1999. Mr. Mignogna reported that the budget was presently on target, and estimated a possible $159,000 savings by taking advantage of items for which the 6% sales tax would not apply. Mayor Russo expressed concern that since the project would cost more than the original estimate that it would go over budget. City Manager Herakovich described changes that had been made which had increased building costs. Mr. Mignogna described bid structuring which would contain a cost breakdown for each building, so that decisions could be made regarding whether some improvements needed to be delayed. Mr. Mignogna reported that final drawings to produce the cost estimates should be ready in approximately one week. Mayor Russo expressed his opinion that if the project came in over the $19 million to be received from the taxpayers, that only the parks should be constructed. Mr. Mignogna explained that the parks were not a separate project and that to realize the best economy and efficiency, one general contractor should be used for the whole project. Councilman Sabatello explained that the parks could be bid separately to the lowest total responsible bidder and the City would have the option of rebidding; however, there would be two general contractors. Mayor Russo stressed that the ball fields must be started June 1 in order to operate the baseball programs as scheduled. Management Administrator Paul Friedman explained the contingency figures, and advised that the cost of site work had been reduced by using a local CITY COUNCIL WORKSHOP MEETING 3/26/98 ITEMS FOR DISCUSSION: PAGE 2 civil engineer and because site irrigation needs had originally been overestimated. The City Manager reported that this project had gone before the Planning and Zoning Commission. Councilman Sabatello suggested that the money collected for Art in Public Places should go into the City Hall project and the fee allocated for art placed in the contingency line, to which the City Manager responded that the City's Ordinance could be revised to exempt the City from having to pay itself the Art in Public Places fee. The City Manager commented that plans would be 95% complete by Monday, March 30, ready for Mr. Mignogna's review, and that the City was currently advertising to pre - qualify subcontractors. Councilman Clark requested two sets of figures: for the additional cost of concurrently bidding the full project and for bidding the parks separately. Mayor Russo and Councilman Clark requested that staff obtain an opinion on whether or not the City could request a total bid on the whole project and also a separate bid for only the parks. FIRE DEPARTMENT STATION UPDATE Management Administrator Paul Friedman reported that the church was ready for occupancy and that Fire Department Administration and Police Department Community Involvement Officers would move there. Fire Suppression staff would then move from the east side to the west side of the fire station. Mr. Friedman provided estimated costs for this project, which had been previously allocated within this fiscal year's budget. LEGAL REPRESENTATION David Acton, City Attorney, discussed the possible transition of Attorney Carole Post to attend City Council meetings rather than himself, and estimated that she was already doing 90 -95% of the City's work, as well as attending Code Enforcement and Planning and Zoning meetings. Mayor Russo expressed concern that Mr. Acton would not be attending the Council meetings, since in his opinion Mr. Acton was one of the best attorneys he had seen handle those meetings. Councilman Clark requested more information on Attorney Post's background. Attorney Acton explained that Attorney Post would not do everything immediately, but that she might assume some things he was now doing, and that the law firm intended to continue this transition. Mayor Russo commented that he believed one CITY COUNCIL WORKSHOP MEETING 3/26/98 PAGE 3 attorney should handle the City's work, and recommended that if this transition occurred that the City look into the possibility of an in- house attorney. EMINENT DOMAIN City Manager Herakovich recommended that staff prepare a resolution for City Council consideration to be placed on the next agenda. CHRIST FELLOWSHIP Growth Management Roxanne Manning reported the church had violated code by adding 600 seats without proper permitting or development approval and had been trying to come into compliance since last summer. The church had submitted a petition for expansion of the conditional use, which would require several public hearings before the Planning and Zoning Commission and one hearing before City Council. Ms. Manning explained that the new Planner II Development Officer would review the list of additions on a petition and would be responsible for making sure construction and occupancy conditions were met. Following ensuing discussion regarding occupancy inspections, Ms. Manning stated that staff would formulate a plan to do regular checks for occupancy violations. The City Manager stated she would bring up the issue at the next Seacoast Utility meeting. In response to Councilman Clark's proposal that the church be required to come before the City Council to explain their position, Ms. Manning responded that she would write them a letter stating that the City Council was very concerned and giving them a date certain to come into compliance. FIRE DEPARTMENT CANINE PROGRAM The City Manager explained that this agenda item was presented to familiarize the City Council with the program and that it would be a budget item. Mayor Russo requested Acting Fire Chief Pete Bergel to provide the City Council with a report on a vision camera, to which Acting Chief Bergel responded that several citizens had taken the initiative to purchase a camera. Mayor Russo stated he expected to see this item in next year's budget. Acting Chief Bergel reported on the dogs' search and rescue program, and requested the City Council's approval for the program, which would be also used in schools in conjunction with the public education specialist. It was the consensus of the City Council that the program was good and should proceed. Mayor Russo requested an update on NAMAC detailing benefits to the City. Acting Chief Bergel introduced Jules Bolton, owner of a dog which would be used in the program, and a dog handler for the program, who explained that another handler could be CITY COUNCIL WORKSHOP MEETING 3/26/98 used. PAGE 4 RELOCATION OF 800 MHZ TOWER Commander Carr reviewed details of the project and reported that relocation of the tower would provide a permanent solution for Palm Beach Gardens police communications, releasing the City from dependency on the County system. The City Manager reported that Seacoast was working on an interlocal agreement to be considered by their board. Commander Carr explained that if the County decided to install a cell system in the future the City could utilize that or stay with this system. CITY MANAGER City Manager Herakovich announced that boards with upcoming vacancies included Planning and Zoning Commission, Code Enforcement, Parks and Recreation, and the Beautification and Environmental Board. Consensus was to consider appointments at the second City Council meeting in April. The City Manager reported she had received a request from Commissioner Karen Marcus to hold two additional flea markets on the church property on April 25 and May 16 to benefit Palm Beach Gardens High School Project Graduation. City Manager Herakovich announced that five applicants for fire chief would be interviewed on April 7 and staff recommended holding a workshop meeting April 9 to review the final three candidates. The City Manager distributed a letter which detailed interests that staff would like addressed by FDOT for the PGA flyover project, including landscaping plans, and announced that a presentation on this project would be made to the City Council during April. ADDITIONAL MATTERS Chairman Sabatello apologized that he would not be able to attend the next meeting. Chairman Sabatello questioned whether the City Council agreed with Planning and Zoning Commission's recommendation that two new office buildings in PGA National be no higher than the Bascom Palmer building. The City Attorney explained that it was legal to ask this type of question at a public meeting and to report the answer to Planning and Zoning; however, cautioned that direction must only be sought for specific projects and was not to be considered as policy for all projects by the Planning and Zoning Commission. It was the consensus of the City Council that the new CITY COUNCIL WORKSHOP MEETING 3/26/98 PAGE 5 office buildings should be no higher than the Bascom Palmer building.

The need to address outdoor seating areas in the 1 City's Land Development Regulations derives from a code enforcement issue, in which several area restaurants were cited for and warned about illegal dining areas located outside of buildings. Currently, the only reference made to dining facilities by the City's Land Development Regulations is a definition of "Restaurant" in section 78 -2, which is as follows: "means an establishment where food is ordered from a menu, prepared and served for pay primarily for consumption on the premises in a completely enclosed room, under the roof of the main structure or in an interior court. A drive -in restaurant as defined in this section is not a restaurant. A cafeteria shall be deemed a restaurant." In addition, the City's CG -1 (General Commercial) zoning district, where the majority of the City's restaurants are located, has a requirement that "sales, display, preparation and storage is to be conducted within a completely enclosed building ... (Section 118- 206(h))" These two code provisions prohibit outdoor seating and specifically dining as a use within the City. However, it should be noted, that some outdoor seating was approved as part of a site plan approval. For example, the Waterway Cafe was approved with outdoor seating as part of its site plan approval. Staff recognizes that businesses, restaurants, employers and customers desire to provide outdoor seating, particularly in light of the favorable climate for outdoor activities. While staff has an interest in allowing for outdoor seating, it also has concerns regarding this type of activity. Such concerns have led the City to develop an ordinance which would allow for outdoor seating while protecting the health, safety and general welfare of the public. Major concerns to staff regarding outdoor seating include: (1) Parking. The provision of outdoor seating, particularly that of restaurants for the purposes of outdoor dining, may create an expansion of a business' use, therefore expanding the need for parking. Lack of regulation of outdoor seating could allow for businesses to expand their use without demonstrating that adequate parking will still be provided. (2) Public safety and accessibility. The location of furnishings associated with outdoor seating in common open spaces and pedestrian walkways presents safety and accessibility issues regarding pedestrian access, persons with disabilities, emergency services, and natural disasters. Lack of regulation of outdoor seating could lead to violation of federal and state accessibility laws, property damage and personal injury. (3) Nuisances. The intent of the ordinance is to regulate the activities taking place within outdoor seating areas so there will be no interference with the enjoyment and use of property. The proposed ordinance includes provisions for maintaining areas in a clean and safe condition at all times and prohibiting encroachment upon other tenant spaces without their consent. At its July 17, 1997 meeting, the City Council had several concerns regarding outdoor seating, including limits of administrative approval, color compatibility, and encroachment into adjacent tenant space. Staff has revised the ordinance to address these concerns. The proposed ordinance would require outdoor seating in which food and /or beverage are served K (waiter service) to be approved by the Planning and Zoning Commission/Site Plan and Appearance Review Committee and City Council by site plan approval or Planned Unit Development amendment. Outdoor seating without waiter service and enlargements to previously approved outdoor seating areas may be administratively approved by the Growth Management Director or her designee. Specific standards and limitations are also proposed to be placed on outdoor seating areas. Those arc: • Outdoor seating must be arranged to allow not less than six (6) feet adjacent to every seat and table. Six (6) feet must be left for all passageways. • Outdoor seating shall not encroach on any sidewalk, passageway or other property of any other person or business unless the petitioner receives written consent of the other person or business and is administratively approved by the City. • Outdoor seating shall not occupy any area designated for parking. • Outdoor seating areas shall be separated from other areas by fencing, planter boxes or other approved divider. • Outdoor seating shall be compatible in color and style with the exterior of the building and shall not contain any sign, lettering or advertising. However, menu boards are allowed and regulated in the draft ordinance. • Food and beverage service in an outdoor seating area would be prohibited between 10 p.m. and 7 a.m. from Sunday through Thursday and between I 1 p.m. and 7 a.m. Friday through Saturday. • No music or other performances of any kind, live or recorded, are permitted with any outdoor seating area. • Outdoor seating which increases the total number of seats of an establishment shall provide additional parking to meet the need created by the additional seats. Outdoor seating which does not increase the total number of seats available for an establishment will not be required to provide any additional parking spaces.

PGA Boulevard is the only remaining gateway, beautifully landscaped and maintained, leading into the new downtown Palm Beach Garden Municipal Complex, for which the city should be complimented. We feel that through some oversight by the powers that be, this may be destroyed and not preserved in the best interest of the city and its residents. For the past 25 years, the area has been developed as a residential community, free of the eliments that undermine the value of its attract- iveness. We would like to maintain the existing character on the north and south side of PGA Boulevard as a residential community. This could easily be accomplished by establishing guidelines of low density with additional landscaping and building setbacks which can only add to the beauty and appeal of the gateway to the new Municipal Complex. The impact by an uncontrolled condition could have serious adverse consequences to the following: a) Devaluation of Property b) Fire Department c) Traffic d) Increase, Existing Office Vacancy Rentals Page 2 RE: Resolution 19, 1998 A task force of neighborhood residents is currently assembling a brochure of panorama photographs, (a few preliminary attached for your perusal) and studies for future presentation to the Council. When complete in approxi -- mately 30 days, these will best reflect our concerns and recommendations. In light of the above, we would appreciate your removing the item of CONCURRENCY from the agenda of your Council Meeting of May %, 1998. This will allow us to make a comprehensive presentation to the City Council and Zoning and Planning Departments for an in -depth review and evaluation, after which the item of "Concurrency" can be rescheduled., Thank you for your accommodation in this matter.

Boulevard referred to as "The Commons ", Parcels 1, 2, and 3. Please refer to the letter of February 18, 199£3 regarding the above proposed development. Since that date, representatives from the condominium complexes contiguous to or adjacent;*. to parcel one, as well as individual homeowners in the affected areas, have met to further understand and take positions re developer's peti- tion to request change in zoning to Mixed Use Development from High Density Development. The Residents of Tamberlane (136 units) are opposed to change in Parcel 1 zoning to MXD , as we understand it. We are against Con- current Processing for Parcel 1 since MXD is not yet an approved zoning category in Palm Beach Gardens. Although we are not against- concurrent processing generally speaking, we are against it when we do not know what MXD zoning will. entail; so we would be dealing with an unknown. We are not addressing Parcels 2 and 3. We in the Parcel 1 area are against rezoning to MXD. Our preference is for it to remain R. 11. however, we could agree to a strip -on P.G.A. Boulevard be- tween Avenue of P.G.A. and Woodland Lakes Condominium being re- zoned to P.O. if need be, with traffic entering and exiting on P.G.A. Boulevard. We are not "anti everything ". However, comb' rcial buildings in Parcel 1 would seriously diminish the quality of life for the Hundreds of nearby condo owners. MXD is neither needed nor wanted in Parcel 1. It would be a "poor fit" on the Boulevard that has become more aesthetically attractive with each passing year, thanks in part to the imagi native, lands caping and appropriate Zoning. We feel that MXD should serve large,new areas where it can be in- tegrated with the residential areas to provide needed and wanted services. We have no need. Condominium communities are quite self - contained -- one of the many roasons the membership (owners) were initially attracted to this modus vivendi.

Steeplechase is a Planned Unit Development (PUD) approved by Palm Beach County on August 10, 1976, and annexed into the City by Ordinance 2, 1988. Subsequent amendments occurred when Steeplechase became a Safe Neighborhood District by Resolution 54, 1990, and to construct a guardhouse and perimeter buffers by Resolution 116, 1990, and Resolution 4, 1993 respectively. The Northlake Boulevard 25' wide buffer was amended by Resolution 80, 1996 to incorporate an 8 -foot wall with associated landscaping. The Northlake Boulevard buffer extends from the canal on the eastern end of the Steeplechase Community to the Florida Turnpike on the western end. This buffer is only interrupted once by the main entrance at Steeplechase Drive. The buffer consists of Oak trees, Ficus trees and an assortment of understory shrubs. The petitioner is proposing to eliminate all the existing trees and shrubbery north of the existing wall, and provide new landscaping. The proposal is needed to resolve existing utility conflicts, maintenance problems with the existing landscaping, berm and wall, and to improve the aesthetics of the Steeplechase buffer. The original approved concept for the 8' -wall was to place it on top of an existing 3' to 4' berm, between two rows of existing trees, without damaging the trees, and add new planting to emulate existing planting. Prior to the installation of the wall, the trees needed pruning in order to install the wall sections. Once the wall was in place, the steep grade of the berm created a soil erosion problem, as well as a maintenance problem for the HOA. The aesthetics of the buffer was compromised further when FP &L severely trimmed the trees away from their utility lines next to Northlake Boulevard. The proposed landscape plan is planned to correct the problems, as mentioned above, and is designed to not create any future problems for the utilities or buffer maintenance. The improvements include changing the grade of the berm. The new landscape pallet includes small trees, such as, Bottlebrush, Silver Buttonwood, Crape Myrtle and others, shrubs and groundcover. No Oak trees south of the wall, interior to the project, will be removed. The petitioner is proposing to remove eight Ficus trees south of the wall, east of the main entrance, and replace them with Oak trees to be consistent with the remaining Oak trees south of the wall. Building Official Jack Hanson, and City Forester Mark Hendrickson have reviewed the plans and have no adverse comments. Seacoast Utility Authority needs a level 12' wide access road, stabilized with Bahia sod, between the Steeplechase wall and the Turnpike bridge retaining wall. City Engineer Tammy Jacobs recommends the embankment from the Seacoast access road to the privacy wall be graded using a maximum 3:1 slope and stabilized with Bahia sod. The HOA has agreed to meet these requests. .1 RESOLUTION 80, 1996 A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PALM BEACH GARDENS, FLORIDA, AMENDING THE STEEPLECHASE PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT TO ADD AN EIGHT -FOOT WALL AND ASSOCIATED LANDSCAPING WITHIN THE EXISTING TWENTY -FIVE FOOT WIDE BUFFER ALONG NORTHLAKE BOULEVARD.

Director Affected parties [ ] Notified Budget Acct. #: [ ] None Approved by: City Manager [ x ] Not required BACKGROUND: The City Council initially approved a policy for concurrent applications for development orders through the adoption of Revolution 92, 1993 which was subsequently amended by Resolution 59, 1994 and Resolution 148, 1996. Resolution 148, 1996 set forth the following policy: "No applications for site plan development orders shall be accepted or processed by the Planning and Zoning Department concurrent with, or prior to the approval of a comprehensive plan amendment, DRls, PCDs, or PUDs, or amendments hereto." Resolution 148 went on to state that City Council may accept and process a concurrent Agenda Cover Memorandum Date: May 7, 1998 Page 2 application (as defined in the previous sentence) should the petitioner agree to "master plan the property pursuant to a developer's agreement or via a unity of control document such that the final master development plan for all properties proposed for development shall be subject to the City Council's review and approval, based upon final action of the Comprehensive Plan, DRI, PCD, PUD or amendment thereto." Staff would like to recommend for Council consideration, repealing Resolution 148, 1996, to allow for concurrent applications for development orders to be accepted, should they meet proposed criteria. Per Council direction at the April 161 meeting, the policy has been revised so that the City Council, based on the Growth Management Department's recommendation, may approve or deny the acceptance and processing site plan and PUD applications which have been submitted concurrent with an application to amend the City's Comprehensive Plan, Land Development Regulations, a DRI, PCD or PUD or amendments thereto when the following criteria are met: (1) Proposed amendments to the Comprehensive Plan shall not create a use of land which is incompatible with surrounding land uses both within and outside of the City's municipal boundaries. (2) No objection to proposed amendments to the Comprehensive Plan, has been raised through the IPARC clearinghouse or Issues Forum relating to the petition. Should an objection be filed, concurrent processing shall cease. (3) No objection to the proposed DRI, PCD, Site Plan, or PUD has been raised by a neighboring jurisdiction through the DRC process. Should an objection be filed, concurrent processing shall cease. (4) Proposed amendments to the Comprehensive Plan shall further the goals set forth in "Our Vision - a Strategic Plan." (5) As a condition of concurrent application approval, prior to site plan or PUD review, proposed amendments to the Comprehensive Plan, a DRI, PCDs or PUDs must meet either Level of Service Standards or have satisfied Concurrency. Staff recommends that this determination be confirmed by `Council action' and the approval of the concurrent processing request be accomplished via consensus (motion and approval). This will streamline and expedite the development review process, which is the intent of concurrent processing. Agenda Cover Memorandum Page 3 Date: May 7, 1998 Please note that the ordinance still provides a provision for a `concurrent processing agreement' to be required, at the Council's discretion, if the City feels that there are conditions or understandings that must be contained in a written agreement.

To: Roxanne Manning From: Carole Wallace Post Subject: Concurrent Processing File No: 319.056 Date: March 23, 1998 I am in receipt of the staff report and proposed resolution providing for concurrent processing of certain applications. Rather than adopt a resolution as to the city's policy on this matter, as had been done in the past, I suggest the policy be codified in the city's code as part of the site plan approval regulations. To accomplish this, we should amend sec. 118 -43, Site Plan Review, to include the following provision: (a) No concurrent processing. Where the proposed site plan is contingent upon approval of a comprehensive plan amendment (CPA), a development of regional impact (DRI), a planned community district (PCD), a planned unit development (PUD), or an amendment to any of the foregoing, for the subject site, the City shall not accept or process the application for site plan review /development order prior to the final approval and adoption of the CPA, the DRI, the PCD, the PUD, or the amendment to any of the foregoing. (b) Exceptions. The City may accept and process the application for site plan review /development order concurrently with the application for CPA, DRI, PCD, PUD or amendments thereto, when, in the City's discretion, the following criteria are met: 1. If a CPA is proposed: a) it shall not result in a land use which is incompatible with surrounding land uses, including land uses within and without the City's municipal boundaries; b) no objection has been raised through the IPARC Clearinghouse or Issues Forum; and c) the proposed CPA is consistent with and furthers the goals set forth in the City's vision plan "Our Vision -- a Strategic Plan" dated Roxanne Manning Page 2 March 23, 1998 2. If a request for DRI, PCD or PUD, or an amendment thereto is proposed, no objection has been raised through the DRC process by a neighboring jurisdiction. 3. If a CPA, DRI, PCD or PUD, is proposed, the proposed plan must either a) meet the level of service standards, or b) satisfy concurrency. (c) If at any time during concurrent processing, the applicant fails to satisfy the aforementioned criteria, i.e. an objection is filed, then concurrent processing shall immediately cease. The applicant is responsible to at all times meet the criteria required for concurrent processing and bears all risks for failure of an application to proceed accordingly. I believe this format is more clear as to the process, the requirements and the risks. The preceding resolutions were not very effective in this regard and their format should be superseded. Additional issues to consider include: (a) the LOS /concurrency requirement, is it only as to traffic, is it as to all LOS /concurrency requirements? it is unclear what is intended; (b) concurrent processing will cease if objections are raised by neighbors in DRC process and IPARC clearinghouse. Are those the only times concurrency will cease? Are there are concerns the city should build in to protect itself? I look forward to discussing this with your further. P: \CP \HISTORY\ 1093 \78.

MILLER, Of Counsel April 30, 1998 Steve Cohen, Esquire The MacArthur Foundation 4400 PGA Boulevard, Suite 900 Palm Beach Gardens, Florida 33410 Re: Acquisition of Tennis Property Our File No: 319.067 Dear Steve: TELEPHONE (561) 627 -5000 FACSIMILE (561) 627 -5600 LYNN M. FOCHT, Administrator Enclosed please find another revised version of documents pertaining to the acquisition of The Foundation property by the City of Palm Beach Gardens. These documents incorporate the items which we discussed earlier this week as well as several other minor changes which I have made. I would like to bring your attention to a number of the modifications as set forth below. 1. The underlying agreement has been modified to reflect that it is now a "Lease Purchase Agreement ". All references to the Option Agreement have been deleted. As we discussed, we will execute the Option Agreement as a separate document as soon as the particulars of that transaction are finalized. 2. The term of Lease has been modified to commence on Friday, May 8, 1998 and end on Monday, May 8, 2000. The closing date is scheduled for May 8, 2000. 3. The Lease Purchase Agreement may not be assigned by either party without written consent by the other. Based upon our discussion on this matter, I have included language which provides that The Foundation may, at its discretion, withhold such consent to assignment. This is based upon a recognition of the materiality of the particular parties to the transaction. 4. The Lease Purchase Agreement shall only be recorded upon full and final acceptance of the Lease and Contract documents by the parties. Further, recordation shall not occur prior to the expiration of the Inspection Deadline as set forth in the Contract. Steve Cohen, Esquire April 30, 1998 Page 2 5. 1 have modified the provision of the Lease pertaining to use of the Lease - Purchase Property. Please review the modified language. Also enclosed, please find a copy of a proposed site plan design for the property. The City is still in the bidding process related to this construction, therefore, this proposal is not intended to represent the final site plan for the property. However, it is likely that the final site plan design will be similar in concept to this plan. It is my understanding, based on our discussions earlier this week, that The Foundation would be comfortable eliminating the approval provisions of the Lease if it were provided a site plan proposal. I expect that the proposed language of paragraph 4 of the Lease will be acceptable based upon your review of the proposed site plan. 6. At our meeting this week we discussed - increasing the insurance provision of the Lease from $1 million to $2 million. After further review of this item with the City, the City feels that it is more than adequately insured at the $1 million mark. 7. With regard to the Contract for Sale and Purchase, I have completed the following provisions to the standard FAR /BAR Contract: a) Purchase Price: $1,266,160.00 b) Balance to close by U.S. cash: $1,266,160.00 c) Closing date: May 8, 2000 d) Assignability: Buyer may not assign this Contract. 8. In the Addendum to Contract for Sale and Purchase, I have provided for the inspection period to expire July 8, 1998. This constitutes sixty days from the execution of the Contract. Per our discussion on this matter, the sixty day period was acceptable to The Foundation. Furthermore, per my discussions with the City Engineer's office, sixty days should be sufficient time to complete its environmental audit and related assessments of the property. Also, I have modified the language of the inspection period provision to specifically indicate that should the Buyer opt to cancel this Contract within the inspection period, the parties shall be released from any further obligation under the Contract, as well as under the Lease and Lease Purchase Agreement. 9. With regard to title insurance, the Contract provides the Seller sixty (60) days to issue a title insurance commitment to the Buyer, pursuant to all the terms and provisions as set forth in the Contract. Please let me know if this is adequate time to complete this obligation. (This time frame is intended to coincide with the termination of the inspection period, July 8, 1998). Steve Cohen, Esquire April 30, 1998 Page 3 10. 1 have added paragraph 15 to the Addendum for Contract and Sale which pertains to the construction or completion of a right of way on the westerly portion of the property, per our discussion on this matter. Furthermore, I have included language which provides that this provision shall survive conveyance and execution of the Warranty Deed to the Lease - Purchase Property. Conclusion. As we discussed, the lease purchase documents are scheduled to be reviewed by the City Council at its May 8, 1998 meeting. If you have any comments or concerns about these revised documents, please contact me as soon as possible. It is my intention to have the documents in final form for the City Council Agenda package by Friday, May 1, 1998 (this Friday).

If a default shall occur, Lessor at any time thereafter may, at its option, give Lessee thirty (30) days written notice of default stating that if the default is not cured at the expiration of said thirty (30) days, this lease and the term hereby demised shall expire and terminate and all rights of Lessee under this lease shall expire and terminate and Lessee will then quit and peacefully surrender the Lease - Purchase Property to Lessor, but Lessee shall remain liable as hereinafter provided. 0 19.2 Upon a default of this lease, Lessee shall quit and peacefully surrender the Lease - Purchase Property to Lessor, and Lessor, upon or at any time after any such expiration or termination, may, without further notice, enter upon and reenter the Lease - Purchase Property and possess and repossess itself thereof, by force, summary proceedings, ejectment or otherwise, and may dispossess Lessee and remove Lessee and all other persons and property from the Lease - Purchase Property and may have, hold and enjoy the Lease - Purchase Property. 19.3 At any time, or from time to time, after any such default, Lessor may relet the Lease - Purchase Property or any part thereof for such term or terms (which may be greater or less than the period which would otherwise have constituted the balance of the term of this lease) and on such conditions (which may include concessions or free rent and alterations of the Lease - Purchase Property ) as Lessor, in Lessor's sole discretion, may determine and Lessor may collect and receive the rents therefore. Lessor shall in no way be responsible or liable for any failure to relet the Lease - Purchase Property or any part thereof, or for any failure to collect any rent due upon any such reletting. 19.4 No such default of this lease shall relieve Lessee or Lessee's liability and obligations under this lease, and such liability and obligations shall survive any such default. 19.5 Lessee hereby expressly waives, so far as permitted by law, the service of any notice of intention to reenter provided for in any statute, and except as is herein otherwise provided, Lessee, for and on behalf of Lessee and all persons claiming by, through or under Lessee (including any leasehold mortgagee or creditor), also waives any and all right of redemption or reentry or repossession if Lessee shall be dispossessed by a judgment or by warrant of any court or judge or in case of reentry or repossession by Lessor or in case of any expiration or termination of this lease. The terms "enter ", "reenter ", "entry", ry or "reentry", as used in this lease are not restricted to their technical legal meanings. 19.6 No failure by Lessor to insist upon the strict performance of any agreement, term, covenant or condition hereof or to exercise any right or remedy consequent upon a breach thereof, shall constitute a waiver of any such breach or of such agreement, term, covenant or condition. No agreement, term, covenant or condition hereof to be performed or complied with by Lessee, and no breach thereof, shall be waived, altered or modified except by a written instrument executed by Lessor. No waiver of any breach shall affect or alter this lease, but each and every agreement, term, covenant and condition hereby shall continue in full force and effect with respect to any other then existing or subsequent breach thereof. 19.7 In the event of any breach or threatened breach by Lessee of any of the agreements, terms, covenants or conditions contained in this lease, Lessor shall be entitled to enjoin such breach or threatened breach and shall have the right to invoke any right and remedy allowed at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise, through reentry, summary proceedings or otherwise, whether or not provided for in this lease. 19.8 Each right and remedy provided for in this lease shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other right or remedy provided for in this lease or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise, and the exercise or beginning of the exercise by Lessor or Lessee of any one or more of the rights or remedies provided for in this lease or now or WC hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise shall not preclude the simultaneous . l or later exercise by the party in question of any or all other rights or remedies provided for in this lease or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise. 20. LESSOR'S RIGHT TO PERFORM LESSEE'S COVENANTS. If Lessee shall at any time fail to make any payment or perform any act on its part required to be made or performed by this lease, then Lessor, after thirty (30) days written notice to Lessee, or without notice in case of an emergency, and without waiving or releasing Lessee from any obligation of Lessee contained in this lease or from any default by Lessee and without waiving Lessor's right to take such action as may be permissible under this lease as a result of such default, may, but shall be under no obligation to, make any payment or perform any other act on Lessee's part required to be made or performed by this lease. If Lessor at any time so elects or is compelled by any other person to cure any breach by Lessee, or is compelled to incur any other expense arising out of any breach of this lease by Lessee (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees, engineering and expert witness fees, and disbursements in instituting, prosecuting or defending any suits, actions or proceedings to enforce Lessor's rights under this or any other Section of this lease or otherwise), the sum or sums so paid by Lessor, with all interest, costs and damages, shall be paid by Lessee to Lessor within forty -five (45) days following written demand. Such expenses may be recovered in the same action or proceeding forming the basis of default. 21. HOLDING OVER. If Lessee remains in possession of the Lease - Purchase Property after the expiration of the term hereof and fails to acquire fee simple title to the Lease - Purchase Property, then Lessee shall be deemed to be in default of this Lease as well as the Lease - Purchase Agreement and the Contract for Sale and Purchase thereunder and Lessor may avail itself of all remedies available to it at law or equity in accordance herewith. 22. NO REINSTATEMENT. No receipt of monies by Lessor from Lessee after a default or after the termination, expiration or cancellation of this lease, shall reinstate, continue, renew or extend the term of this lease, or affect any notice theretofore given to Lessee, or operate as a waiver of the right of Lessor to enforce the provisions hereof, or operate as a waiver of the right of Lessor to recover possession of the Lease - Purchase Property by proper suit, action, proceeding or remedy; it being agreed that, after the service of notice to terminate or cancel this lease, or the commencement of suit, action or summary proceedings, or any other remedy, or after a final order or judgment for the possession of the said Lease - Purchase Property, Lessor may demand, receive and collect any monies due, or thereafter failing due, without in any manner affecting such notice, proceeding, suit, action, order or judgment; and any and all such monies collected shall be deemed to be payments on account of the use and occupation or Lessee's liability hereunder. 23. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. The terms, covenants and agreements of this lease shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Lessor, its successors and assigns, and Lessee, its successors and assigns. Nothing in this Section shall be deemed to authorize or permit any assignment or other transfer, in whole or in part, of the interest of Lessee in violation of any of the other provisions of this lease. 24. ENFORCEMENT COSTS. If any legal action or other proceeding is brought for the enforcement of this Lease, or because of an alleged dispute, breach, default or misrepresentation in connection with any provisions of this Lease, the successful or prevailing party 11 will be entitled to recover reasonable attorneys fees, court costs and all expenses even if not taxable as court costs (including, without limitation, all such fees, costs and expenses incident to appeals), incurred in that action or proceeding, in addition to any other relief to which such party or parties may be entitled. 25.

Olson, Finance DirectorK�� SUBJECT Tennis Facility DATE May 4, 1998 PAGE 01 The proposed Tennis Facility construction will be funded from the General Fund with $400,000 in unspent budgeted funds from the Fiscal 1998 Budget (current year) and 8700,000 in the Fiscal 1999 Budget as outlined in the Capital Improvements Program. The Recreation Impact Fund does not have enough money to pay for this project at this time. In addition, while the Tennis Center will be much better than our current facility, we are essentially replacing it, thus I don't think it would be appropriate to use impact fee funds for this purpose. When the lease on the property expires in May, 2000, 1 anticipate soliciting competitive quotes from local financial institutions to borrow the funds for the purchase of the property. Please let me know if there are any questions or if you need additional information. CITY OF PALM BEACH GARDENS 10500 N. MILITARY TRAIL • PALM BEACH GARDENS, FLORIDA 33410 -4698 • (407) 775 -8200 INTEROFFICE MEMO DATE: April 27, 1998 TO: Bobbie Herakovich, City Manager FROM: Peter T. Bergel, Fire Chi RE: NAMAC and Automatic Aid Pursuant to the directive issued by the City Council in regard to the City's participation in the Northern Area Mutual Aid Consortium ( NAMAC), I offer the following report. NAMAC was conceived by Chief Ed Arrants and was assembled in the late eighties in an effort to provide a formalized mutual aid agreement between the cities in the north end of the County. Over the years, Palm Beach Gardens has provided mutual aid responses to North Palm Beach, Lake Park, Palm Beach Shores and Mangonia Park for fire and hazardous materials emergencies. As the awareness of hazardous materials grew Palm Beach Gardens initiated steps to develop a "Special Operations" team to provide service not only to Palm Beach Gardens but the NAMAC communities as well. As a result, the NAMAC Coordinating Council requested funding from the NAMAC participants to fund this endeavor. Palm Beach Gardens funding was allocated and credited to NAMAC in exchange for our commitment to provide this response to the NAMAC participants. Additionally, NAMAC commissioned a feasibility study (enclosed) in July of 1996 to explore the possibilities of a centralized dispatch center for participating members. The cost distribution for the City based on the feasibility study was twenty -nine (29) percent of the annual operating costs of $1,379,306.00, which included the City of Riviera Beach and Town of Jupiter. The NAMAC Coordinating Council drafted a resolution for passage by members supporting a centralized dispatch center which was passed as Resolution 130, 1997 by the City. Recently, the Countywide Intergovernmental Coordinating Committee proposed a Regional Response Plan for Hazardous Materials, which the City endorsed and had considerable input. This Regional Hazardous Materials Response Program will become operational countywide May 1, 1998. At this point NAMAC has a minimal impact to the City of Palm Beach Gardens in regards to fire and emergency service response. We will continue to provide fire and rescue mutual aid response to NAMAC members when requested. However, the Automatic Aid Agreement between the City of Palm Beach Gardens and Palm Beach County Fire Rescue has a significant impact to fire and emergency service responses within the City. Since 1993 the automatic aid responses into the County have increased from 371 (1992) to 823 (1997) which represents a fifty -four (54) percent increase. When considering the relocation of Fire Station 16 (Cabana Colony) the current projection is a forty (40) percent increase in automatic aid. This increase impacts Districts 1, 2 and 4 (map enclosed) and furthermore has a domino effect on the other Districts based on dispatch parameters currently in place. Palm Beach Gardens is second due to Station 16 response area and dispatch of our units is dependent upon the location of the call and the status of our units at the time of the call. Once Station 16 is relocated Palm Beach Gardens will be first due to a large area of the County west of the Intracoastal Waterway between PGA Boulevard and Donald Ross Road. In 1997 Palm Beach County Fire Rescue's Engine 16 answered 1011 calls for service (spreadsheet enclosed) and Rescue 16 answered 942 calls for service. It is important to note that 403 of those calls for service were within Palm Beach Gardens due to automatic aid. Palm Beach County estimates that the relocation of Station 16 will not happen until late 1999 and that Station 16 will continue to respond south of their new location with minimal impact to Palm Beach Gardens. Palm Beach County is preparing data and proposed response zones to verify the impact to our system. The Fire Department is currently negotiating a new automatic aid agreement with Palm Beach County Fire Rescue and will negotiate the impact of providing this service to the County. However, the City must look at the need to staff an additional Rescue and possibly an Engine and place them temporarily in Station 16 until the time Station 5 is built. This is based on the relocation of Station 16 and the projection that the calls for service within District 5 will increase from 251 (1997) to 981 (1999), based on current response zones, which dictates the need for Station 5. I will be happy to discuss this matter further or answer any additional questions you may have regarding this issue. Should you need additional clarification, please do not hesitate to contact me at any time. cc: file K. Glas RESOLUTION 130, 1997 A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PALM BEACH GARDENS, FLORIDA, SUPPORTING THE NORTHERN AREA MUTUAL AID CONSORTIUM (NAMAC) PROPOSAL OF A CENTRALIZED DISPATCH CENTER TO HANDLE EMERGENCY RESPONSE REQUESTS FROM THE CITIZENS LIVING IN THOSE CONIlVIUNITIES PARTICIPATING IN NAMAC; AND, PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE DATE. WHEREAS, the City of Palm Beach Gardens entered into an Interlocal Agreement in 1989 to provide an organized method of providing Fire and Emergency Mutual Aid Service to member jurisdictions; WHEREAS, it was deemed mutually advantageous to enter into such Agreement providing for mutual aid in times of emergency when the need created may be too great for any one party to deal with unassisted; WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Palm Beach Gardens has discussed at public meetings, their interest in being a part of a centralized dispatch center; and WHEREAS, the City of Palm Beach Gardens foresees saving money by sharing in the cost of equipment and personnel in such a centralized dispatch center.

SCOPE The scope of the study is to analyze the suitability of merging present communications capability and operations into one consolidated communications center. The study presents cost estimates for start up and recurring costs of operation, and provides a recommendation on the division of costs among the participating jurisdictions. The study provides potential advantages and disadvantages of central communications operations and further provides comments as to service level changes as a result of the merger. The study also includes an analysis of the anticipated changes in the Insurance Services Office (ISO) classification for insurance premium rate setting. These rates relate to the total fire protection system under the umbrella of consolidated communications and the improvements derived there from. A FEASIBILITY STUDY ON CONSOLIDATED COMMUNICATIONS DRAFT pj—A� CURRENT SMUA T /ON The NAMAC area is comprised of the geographic area north td West Palm Beach and Palm Beach beginning at Mangonia Park northward to the Martin County line. The area includes ten municipal .police and fire agencies, and are as follows; The Police an0ire Departments of ,Tequesta, Jupiter Inlet Colony, Jupiter, Juno Beach, Palm Beach Gardens, North Palm Beach, Lake Park, Palm Beach Shores, Riviera Beach, and Mangonia Park. Most of the municipal law enforcement agencies provide service to their own communities. There are some who utilize the dispatch services of the Sheriffs Department, specifically Juno Beach, Mangonia Park, Palm Beach shores and Jupiter Inlet colony. The fire protection system ranges from dispatch by either Palm Beach Countv Fire and Rescue , the Sheriffs Department, or dispatch by their own police agency. None of the fire departments surveyed in the NAMAC provided their own dispatch services. The survey disclosed that the Sheriffs Department currently provides dispatch services to both police and fire agencies in the NAMAC who choose to utilize that service at no charge, however there is some indication that there is intended to be a charge in the future if additional agencies are added to the to the Sheriffs offices dispatch equation. Palm Beach County Fire Rescue dispatches only fire, rescue and ambulance from their communications center, and provide a service charge for such services of other than their own agency. None of the fire agencies surveyed made any financial contribution to their municipal law enforcement agency for dispatch services where such was provided. Three of the agencies surveyed received fire protection services from an agency other than their own municipality. These were Juno Beach, which receives fire protection services from Palm Beach County Fire and Rescue, The city of Jupiter, which receives its services from Palm Beach County Fire and Rescue, and Jupiter Inlet Colony which receives its fire protection and rescue services from Tequesta. The dispatching methodology is also significantly different in the jurisdictions surveyed. Some agencies indicated an interest in not only consolidation and the possible delivery of dispatch services through a communications center managed and staffed by non sworn personnel but were receptive to consideration of delivery of communications by a private non governmental agency. Such an agency would be overseen by a committee of public emergency response officials who would direct service delivery policies of the consolidated center. Appendix C /of this study, charts the variations of communications delivery and also includes much of the survey data collected during the site visits. With the exception of four law enforcement agencies, all have VHF radio capability and one of the four agencies mentioned, Juno Beach, reportedly has capability on VHF also in addition to the 800 MHZ. Radio systems of Riviera Beach, Palm Beach Gardens , and Jupiter in their police agencies are equipped with 800 MM. The only exception to a consistent VHF capability in the fire service agencies of the NAMAC is Riviera A FEASIBILrPY STUDY ON CONSOLIDATED COMMUNICATIONS DRAFT Beach which is on 800 MHZ trunked off of the West Palm Beach police system and currently indicates some doubt that the City will be a player in consolidated dispatching for the Namac area. There is an additional variation that must be considered and that is the dual use of the same frequency by the police and fire protection agencies of Mangonia Park, Palm Beach Shores, and No. Palm Beach. During the site survey, interviews indicated that the jurisdictions of Mangonia Park, Juno Beach, Jupiter Inlet Colony, and Palm Beach Shores shared the same VHF frequency for law enforcement. ` There appears to be a high number of studies, development, and installation of new equipment associated with communications at the time of this study. These developmental issues have or will have an impact on the ability and willingness to participate in consolidation in the event the decision makers agree to move forward with the project. FAC719 BEARING ON THE STUDY ♦ There is currently no agreed upon CAD system that is in use in the Palm Beach County NAMAC area. ♦ There is a commonality in the use of VHF radio that will lend itself toward consolidation. ♦ There is currently no NAMAC wide communications linkages between Yire forces, nor is there a reasonable radio communications interconnection between law enforcement. and with the exception of those few agencies that share radio frequencies between the law enforcement agency and the fire department, there X no inter communication linkages between agencies. ♦ There are 64 personnel identified as radio communications operators in the study area. ♦ There are a total of 238,745 calls for emergency services through the NAMAC communications area with an estimated additional 4000 calls which are handled for ambulance dispatch through the emergency number that are not included in the recorded calls for each agency for a total of 242,745 calls for service for police and fire agencies. ♦ The combined total population for the NAMAC study area approximates 133,375 as reported by the agency representatives during the site visit interviews. ♦ There are four law enforcement and two fire protection agencies in the study area that receive their dispatch services at no charge by the Sheriffs Department. ♦ There is anticipated to be a total of 83 police vehicles on the street on an average day, these may consist of motorcycles, administrative cars, patrol cars, and immarked cars._All of which have radio communication capability. ♦ There is anticipated to be three to five emergency fire vehicles on the communications airways at all times, but may vary to 20 in the event of a major emergency incident. ♦ Two cities, Juno Beach and Jupiter, receive both fire protection and the related dispatch services from Palm Bah County Fire and Rescue. ♦ At the time of this report the future of 800 MHZ is uncertain as persistent rumors reflect on the A FEASMHXrY STUDY ON CONSOLIDATED COWvfUMCATIONS DRAFT future of the spectrum. However, discussion with the Florida State Division of Communications indicates other than the pressure from the Federal Communications Commission to justify the allocation of 800 MHZ frequencies..Tfiere is no known activity that would jeopardize the future of the 800 MHZ band. For the purposes of thin report the future of the spectrum is a non - issue. The state office is continuing to process and approve 800 MHZ installations through out the state. A FEASIBILITY STUDY ON CONSOLIDATED COMMUNICATIONS DRAFT 3 POTENTIAL ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES OF A CONSOL IDATED COMMON /CAT IONS CENTER ADVANTAGES Law enforcement and fire rescue personnel could communicate efficiently manage emergencies and coordinate service to the public. Cost reductions in both personnel and equipment could be achieved. Excessive redundancv could be eliminated in communications equipment with consolidation of efforts. Some existing equipment could be relocated to reduce start up costs. Major improvements in both police and fire performance can be achieved by providing the capability to communicate across municipal boundaries. Law enforcemeni frequently are limited in that criminal activity may be taking place in multiple jurisdictions, and immediate sharing of information is critical. The technology for multiple jurisdiction coordination of the type needed, currently is not installed. Consolidation presents the opportunity for fire protection and law enforcement resources to initiate automatic aid, where resources are shared automatically by each community. This enhances all participants capabilities at no additional cost. Consolidated communications provides for significantly improved emergency scene management where resources participate from multiple jurisdictions. With the appropriate technology, hardware and software, it is possible to have police, fire or ems units or a combination thereof, alerted and responding in less than 30 seconds from the time of the telephone ringing. A FEASIBILITY STUDY ON CONSOLIDATED COMMUNICATIONS DRAFT ADVANTAGES(cont) A central center may be of value in improving Insurance Services Office (ISO) classifications resulting in lower fire insurance rates and in complying with communications provisions of both the Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement Agencies and the National Fire Service Accreditation Program for jurisdictions involved in these evaluation programs. Establishment of a center will relieve police administrators of direct responsibilities relating to personnel matters for a cadre of non -svmm employees; possibly permitting replacement with swum personnel for assignment to street law enforcement duties. Supervisors at the center would be trained communicators with full awareness of what is expected of employees they supervise. An alternate funding source for center operation may be available if direct connection of automatic alarms is permitted. Uniformity of shift schedules at a central location will reduce the potential for "lost calls" which is possible with the variety of schedules now utilized at the existing multitude of communications centers. This is an especially critical issue when multiple agency operations, police, fire or emergency medical, are in progress at shift change time. DRAFT visaovAU rAGES Participants will have to give up some autonomous procedures in favor of a coordinated communications operation. There will be an appearance that personalized service to the citizen has been reduced. All agencies may not agree to participate in the consolidation of communications leaving one or more geographic black holes in the regional emergency communications package. Significant policy issues will have to be reconciled by participants which may alter current procedures and practices. Start up costs for this initiative will have an impact on the willingness to participate in a consolidated communications system. Some transmitter sites may have to be relocated to minimize the risk of service interruption in a consolidated emergency communications center. 1 Widely differing radio spectrums currently in use in the NAMAC complicate the consolidation of a regional radio system into a single entity. Sharing of radio frequencies in the VHF band will be necessary in order to coordinate activity. A FEASIBU= STUDY ON CONSOLIDATED COMMUNICATIONS DRAFT n ANALYSIS OF THE SUIrAMIL /TY OF MERGING PRESENT COMMUNICATIONS CENTERS INTO A SINGLE CENTER The review of the current communications system and an analysis of the current fire emergency response and of law enforcement resources in a limited geographic area, those findings cannot dictate any other response than an unqualified YES! The suitability is definitely in favor of the consolidation of communication resources. There are however, a number of issues that must be reconciled in order to accomplish the task. ITEMS TO BE CONSIDERED; The co- existence of VHF and 800 MHZ in the same communications center. The existence of Palm Beach County Fire Rescue as a participant in the NAMAC regional communications plan, and the role that the county is to fill in the overall service delivery system. The location and custody of a consolidated emergency communication center, and whether it should be in the custodv of a city, county or of a Isrivate agency. A willingness to consolidate existing radio frequencies into a pool for the betterment of the overall communications network in the NAMAC area. OpHon t Consolidate all communications operations currently in the NAMAC area,(with the exception of those who choose not to participate) into a newly constructed, severe weather resistant, structure, suitable for emergency communications operations under any reasonably anticipated disaster conditions. This communications center can technologically encompass both the VHF capability currently in use as well as the 800 MM systems that are being used. DISCUSSION A FEASIBILITY STUDY ON CONSOLIDATED COMMUNICATIONS DRAFT Technologically, all the existing radio systems currently in use can be either relocated to a secure structure, or remotely operated from a new communications facility. Namac participants would then provide the start up costs in conjunction with available financial resources discussed elsewhere in this document. The center could then be operated by a private contractor, utilizing a "Public Utility Model" where the participants own the physical site, its buildings and hardware, and a private contractor would operate the center under the binding policy direction of a steering committee. The contractor would be responsible for employment, personnel issues, management, maintenance and the operation of the facility, and the steering committee would have binding authority for policy making as to the delivery of communications services output. Once the communications center is operational with vhf capability then the next phase of implementation could take place, by a change over to 800 MHZ with a minimum of ten (10) frequencies bunked, providing at least, (with current technology) 30 tactical operating channels for 4 use by the #olice and/fire agencies contained within the Namac area. The general rule is 100 radios for each channel for appropriate justification and approval. This may be accomplished by installing radio channels into other jurisdiction's mobile a portable radios that are likely to be utilized in area wide coordination or emergency operations. Option 2 The second option considers the consolidation of all VHF users in the current Namac system. This would require the sharing of existing frequencies to provide the flexibility to dispatch and operate on separate operating frequencies in order to streamline the efficiency of communications to the satisfaction of the internal users. The 800 MHZ departments that are currently operating in that radio spectrum, could remain autonomous for the short term until the FCC completes its deliberations. Thereafter incorporating the 800 MHZ group into the communications operation or changing frequencies as may be the case. DISCUSSION, The consolidation of the VHF spectrum of communications in the Namac area is relatively simple, given the availability of start up costs. There needs to be a resolution to the issue of participation of the PBC F &R organization into this scenario, due to the fact that PBC has responsibilities in the geographic area and currently operates in the VHF radio spectrum. The need to coordinate with the County F &R is equally as important as the consolidation issue. First, due to the County's responsibility areas being interspersed with Namac areas. Secondly, due to the funding that is available from the moving violations where the County is a participant. As with option 1 there is an opportunity to change over to 800 MHZ. This would provide an adequate number of channels for tactical operation and dispatching and would provide the ease of channel switching where needed- There is a need in this option also to develop a Namac wide dispatch matrix for both the police and fire service in order to standardize the process of dispatching as nearly as possible. There are 7 dedicated VHF channels identified for fire in the Namac area. There are 14 duplexed tactical channels in the Palm Beach County Fire Rescue operation. A FEASIBILITY STUDY ON CONSOLIDATED COMMUNICATIONS DRAFT opt/on 3 Consolidate iU Fire and EMS dispatching services with the County's new communications center currently under construction. This will result in no voids in communications for fire and EMS in the Namac area. Thereafter consolidate the police communications through a smaller but coordinated Communinatipns capability. DISCUSSION: Many of the jurisdictions within the fire organizations are either dispatched by or provided fire service by the PBC F&R- Some of the other organizations are dispatched by the Sheriffs office, at no charge. Six out of the ten jurisdictions surveyed are under this operational concept. The Balance are dispatched by their own police departments. It is also considered that part of the cost savings is in the consolidation of the Public Safety Answering Points (PSAPs) where 911 emergency numbers are answered. The consolidation of the system could also provide increased efficiency in the receiving and handling of 911 emergency calls at a single PSAP where persons exposed to a high intensity operation are typically more skilled in expeditious processing of those calls. This scenario would provide for cost avoidance through the utilization of dispatching services from the county's new communications Centel, which is already being constructed with significantly increased stability, for disaster resistance. It is anticipated that there would be a charge for those services, but with some cost avoidance due to partial infiastructure already in place. A FEASIBILITY STUDY ON CONSOLIDATED CONWJNICATIONS DRAFT 5 COST ANAL YSiS The following is a discussion and analysis of the anticipated costs incurred with the different scenarios as it relates to consolidating the Namac area communications operation for fire, Police and EMS. 'There are alternatives that may be included if the Namac steering committee determines that the first alternative is not appropriate at this time. It should be noted that some data contained within this report was estimated in an effort to meet the time lines established by the committee. There was some of the budget data of existing organizations that was not easily identified as being communications related within the existing documents examined. Start up coats The consolidated communications center operation has the option of operating out of a current structure, which has been retrofitted in order to make it suitable for an emergency communications operation, or it may opt for new construction, more substantially constructed than the conventional construction codes require. The purpose of this is to protect the nerve center of the emergency response and operations of the Namac communications net work.

CAD system, 1 $960,000 This system must be capable of providing both management reports for the jurisdictions involved, but also must meet the needs of the Namac participants. This includes both hardware, software and backup. Emergency Generator purchase and installation. $30,000 Numerous emergency generators are available for relocation in the isystem some paid for with 911 surcharge funds, as a result there may be some cost avoidance on this issue.. Uninterrupted power supply (UPS), as with the generators there are $25,000 UPS units contained in the Namac area that would be available for relocation. 'These were for the most part purchased with county provided 911 surcharges. The 911 PSAP component is not included here as anticipated costs are expected to be covered by county 911 surcharge resources. It should also be noted that components listed maybe partially or totally paid for by the 911 fund depending on the extent of utilization and justification as part of the 911 call receiving and processing. Total (not ingiliding Dersonnel costs) $1.531.000 ALTERNATE RADIO SYSTEMS If 800 MHZ is chosen in the start up phase, the following costs would be anticipated to be incurred. 800 NIHZ radio system, trunked, with a miurimum of five (5) frequencies $900..000 containing a mini m m of 10 sub - fleets frn a total of 30 tactical operating groups.

Note that the costs reflected here are averages as there are numerous variations in the methodology and job functions of existing personnel and equipment. Personnel in many cases are performing dual roles in their current communications operator positions, and may be retained by their current organizations. Some equipment may not be available for relocation considering their dual use in the current physical plant in which they are installed. It should also be noted that the personnel identified as current does not include those personnel who were not communications operators as their primary function. Personnel Costs at an average cost of $23,000 plus 20% benefits for a total of $27,600 Existing Needed Savings 64 42 $1,766,400 $1,159,200 ( $607,200) PSAPs (Public Safety Answering point) 6 @ $5000 1 @ $5,000 ($25,000) 12 A FEASIBILITY STUDY ON CONSOLIDATED COMMIMCAnONS DRAFT FINANCIAL RESOURCES V/SCUSS /ON The financial resources required to fund the consolidation of the Emergency Services communications network in the Namac area will depend largely on the option or combination thereof that is selected for the process. There are a number of funding vehicles that are available for selected portions of the communications center operation. The following discussion is a review of those funding mechanisms. 91 f SURCHAM nE PUND A review of the usage of the funds collected for the support and maintenance of the emergency communications center indicates that current rulings pursuant to the statute, support the use of the 911 surcharge for consoles related to the answering of 911 emergency calls, the peripheral telephone system, PSAP switches necessary, furnishings associated with 911 service delivery and the infrastructure associated with its maintenance and continued operation, such as generators and Uninterrupted power supply units., The 911 funds can also be used for the purpose of continued operation and some limited personnel costs associated with answering and processing emergency 911 calls. I, There is a considerable savings to the county 911 program in the consolidation effort. Therefore it would be reasonable to expect that all the start up costs associated with consolidation of PSAPs and other costs connected with 911 in a consolidated center would be paid out of county funds. It is also a reasonable expectation that the recurring operating costs associated with the continued operation of the single 911 PSAP would also be underwritten in their entirety by the 911 funding mechanism. State approved surcharge on moving traffic vl014MtiOna. The Florida Legislature in the 1996 session passed a $12.50 surcharge on moving traffic violations for the purpose of funding improved communications. 1 A Review of Florida Statutes Chapter 316.655(6) and Chapter 318, and CS for SB 892 Passed by 13 A FEASIBILITY STUDY ON CONSOLIDATED COMMUNICATIONS DRAFT the Florida Legislature in the 1996 session, modifying chapter 318.21 was conducted. The language of the statute indicates that the County is the custodian of the funds for the purpose of funding the county's participation in an intergovernmental radio communications system. In the absence of the county's participation in such a program, the County is to provide such funds to local law enforcement for automation and for the municipality in which the moving violation occurred. Interviews with county officials indicate there is some degree of difference in the interpretation of what the county's participation means. In order to secure the funds for the consolidation operation under the statute it appears that; (1) the county would have to be a partner in the consolidation of the Namac as a participant in the communications network, or; (2) the Namac and its individual agencies would have to negotiate with the County in order to secure a portion of funding for the consolidation effort. OTHER FUNDING MLECHAN SMS Law enforcement forfeiture funds A special act of the Legislature for a special funding for the project. A short term special purpose tax, could be submitted for referendum for the purpose of funding improved Police and Fire Communications systems. See appendix Bond issues for the project. Under the same circumstances as stated above. The debt service principal could be budgeted through the annual process for each participating jurisdiction. Grants Currently grants are available for qualified applicants in from the Department of Communitv Affairs, Division of Emergency Management for regional coordination of emergency operations. The Countrywide Public Safety Communications Committee is currently investigating a grant from the Telecommunications and Information Infrastructure Assistance Grant Program. Annual budgeting of start up and recurring operating costs by participating jurisdictions on a basis of population served. See proposed funding graph. 14 A FEASIBILITY STUDY ON CONSOLIDATED COMMUNICATIONS DRAFT PorE7NnAL /MPA CT OF COMMON /CAT IONS CONSOL /OAT /ON ON THE /NSUR.4NCE SERI//CE OFF /CE C150; RAT /NG OF THE NAMAC AREA 1 Existing ISO ratings for the study area known as Namac is as follows: riviera beach 4 Juno Beach 4 Mangonia Park 5 Tequesta 4 Palm Beach Gardens 3 Palm Beach Shores 6 North Palm Beach 6 Lake Park 4 Jupiter 4 Jupiter Inlet Colony 4 The Insurance Service Office advises that a year history developed on the continued successful operation of the consolidated communications center operation is usually the norm. Secondarily the compliance by the fire service with accepted standards of receiving alarms from the communications center, in conjunction with the CAD system would be taken into consideration.. The consolidation alone would not necessarily elevate the ISO rating of the fire jurisdictions covered in this study. However, the ISO office on request would review the new communications system and consider an improved rating if warranted. With an improved ISO classification the insurance premiums for fire insurance would reflect a more favorable rate. The most significant rate improvements are characteristically in the business community, where fire insurance premi»mc are the most noticeable. Fire insurance in the residential setting is a component of the home owners insurance program and occupies a portion of the homeowners insurance premium. 15 A FEASIBILITY STUDY ON CONSOLIDATED COMMUNICATIONS DRAFT r: RECOMMENDAT ION OPTION 1 The study as conducted dictates a strong recommendation of a consolidated Police and Fire centralized dispatch system for the Namac area as described in option 1.. This recommendation should be phased in over the next two years on a planned schedule of development that will incorporate new construction, E -911 relocation into a central single PSAP, and consolidating existing VHF radios and long term planning for development or an 800 MHZ plan for operations. J9r#W rEC /C ARLA V OF /MMEMEN'I ArION Sequentially displayed the general development plan recommended is as follows: 1. Initiate a technologv study as to the current locations of the VHF transmitter sites_ to determine their suitability for either relocation to a new communications center or can they be reliably operated from their current locations. A. Will existing towers be suitable for VHF operation and will these same towers be suitable for 800 MHZ if and when it comes. B. Will a single 800 MHZ transmitter/Receiver site in the Namac area provide reliable 800 MHZ communications, or will another simulcast receiver /transmitter repeater site be required. C. Are the existing VHF radios capable of loading and sharing frequencies of multiple agencies for coordination and tactical assignments? 16 A FEASIBRITY STUDY ON CONSOLIDATED COMMUNICATIONS DRAFT PHASE / Approve a joint funding methodology for the new center., employing new construction. Enter into a design program for the new center sized Ito meet the needs of the entire Namac area. Plans completed by 6 -1 -97 Construction bids by 9 -1 -97 Construction started by 1 -1 -98 Relocate existing generators and UPS capability into the new structure as part of the construction project. Identify the desirable CAD features and develop a request for proposal to include both hardware and software for the communications center design. By 9 -1 -97 Establish planning with the telephone utility for transferring the existing PSAP's to a single PSAP with a minimum of 15 incoming emergency ( 911 lines. The actual installation should be consistent with the General contractors development schedule. Plans to be completed by 1 -1 -98 Develop plans and have a contractor selected for the relocation and/or By 1 -98 remote operation of existing VHF and 800 MHZ transmitters and receivers. Prepare and submit an RFP for radio consoles suitable for VHF and later By 1 -98 for 800 MHZ. Easily convertible for the upgrading if needed. Note: Ergonomic design in consoles and chairs is imperative for long term high performance of dispatch personnel. Operations can be initiated in the consolidated center by August 1998 Employee staffing of the center can be accomplished preferably by single agency employment, whether by government or by private employers. The communications center should clearly define police and fire dispatchers separately and distinctly with specialized training for each. While cross training is effective, frequent oscillation between their specialized assignments lowers the efficiency in each position. ' If the Namac opts for a private enterprise operation of its communications function. the center, its equipment, and infrastructure should be owned by the participants. The contractor should then provide the staff, training and maintenance to deliver continued emergency communications operations. A Change in contractors therefore does not provide a crippling effect on emergency communications. The center in any event, whether operated by public employees or private, should have a steering committee of user /participants that have binding authority over the operational output of the center. 17 A FEAS11BnXrY STUDY ON CONSOLIDATED CoNRA ICAnONS DRAFT PHASE 2 Develop the parameters of the 800 MHZ radio system and present those parameters in an RFP for vendor selection. By August -98 Note: It is strongly recommended that all radio electronics be purchased, installed, tested and warranted by a single vendor. Historical observations of communications center operations where components for several low bidding vendors were assembled for a completed system proved to be disastrous in that system accountability is extremely difficult to pin point. While many vendors tout a seamless system, a multiplicity of vendors for a single radio system generally has problems that a single vendor does not have. Establ_i-h a target date of no later than January 1999, to accomplish the following: Develop a communications capability that utilizes the technology of 1999 into the Namac regional communications center operations. This technology may include 800 MHZ, digital Technology, Mobile Data Terminal use in all Fire and Police units, and mobile location tracking of public safety units for true nearest unit dispatching. Many of these technologies are being finalized ( in the upper radio spectrum as this report writing. Considering the investment and the criticality of r Police and Fire emergency communications and the emergency management aspect of the communications center, it is only prudent to take advantage of the technical enhancements that are available to the emergency services to improve their capabilities. 18 A FEASIBILITY STUDY ON CONSOLIDATED COMMUNICATIONS POPULATION PROFILE JU.IN.COL (0.29 %) J U P ITR (24.24 %) LAK PK (4.85 %) NO.PB (7.62 %) PBS (0.69 %) PBG (29.09 %) TEQSTA.

Eliminate requirement for residential land use in a Mixed Use Development. Plan Provision: Mixed Use Development (MXD): The MXD designation is designed for new development which is surretmded characterized by a variety of existing integrated land use types. The intent of the district is to provide for a mixture of uses on single, large parcels in order to develop sites which are sensitive to the surrounding uses, desired character of the community, and the capacity of public facilities to service proposed developments. This future land use designation is also intended to foster infill and redevelopment efforts. deter urban sprawl and encouraee new affordable housinti opportunities. as well as lessen the need for additional vehicular trips throutlh the internalization of trips within a neighborhood or nroiect. To create a functionine. multi - faceted tvpe of development. mixed use development is dependent on the successful integration of distinct uses. Integration is defined as the combination of distinct uses on a single site where impacts from differine uses are mitiLyated through site design techniaues. and where impacts from differing uses are expected to benefit from the close immediate proximity of complementary uses. All reauests for development approval based on a mixed use concept must be able to demonstrate functional horizontal integration of the allowable uses. and where applicable. vertical integration a$ well, The following are the minimum criteria to be used for development of sites designated as MXD: 1. An MXD shall be developed as a Planned Community District or a Planned Unit Development. However, land development regulations adopted to implement this Comprehensive Plan shall ineiude a maintain mixed -use Supt)_ lemental regulations zoning district to provide further criteria for the development of sites with MXD Future Land Use designations, including parking rea_uirements, permitted uses, setbacks and other considerations. 2. MXDs shall have frontage on at least one arterial. The Citv's Conceptual Thoroughfare Plan shall be accommodated to expand the roadwav network through the provision of new local streets which serve new neighborhoods in the City's developing areas. ailu �iaii v% ouLivuilucu vy iuvi; Luail vile.

The individual uses. buildings and /or Ekdevelopments pods within MXD districts shall include interconnecting pedestrianways and plazas and snail provide eQnnections to the Parkwav System. Nonresidential uses shall have an internalized relationship with the residential component and multi -modal accessibility. Staff Response: Council directed staff to make this a specific provision of the MXD. While DCA does not specify what type of uses must be included in mixed use development, they do require that a minimum of 2 different land uses are designed into the project. The intent of the MXD is to encourage projects where people can live, work, shop and recreate without having to travel on the roadway network for each activity. Council had provided comments to staff during workshops that the best means to fulfill this intent is to require a residential component in each MXD. This matter is not an issue with DCA, and is a Council policy directive. 1(b). Maintain waiver for single owner /occupant. Plan Provision: see last two sentences of enumeration #3 from MXD definition above Staff Response: DCA requires that mixed use developments contain at least 2 different land uses, so the `waiver' language had to be revised with the EAR -based amendments. The policy has been rewritten so that 3 land use types are no longer required, rather a mix of 2 uses (one of them being residential). The `waiver' to a single use will not be accepted by DCA, so if a `major professional high wage paying employer' cannot share one of the designated MXD sites with another use, then the property needs to be redesignated to another land use category. Staff does not recommend a change. 2. DRI vesting. Staff is seeking advice from the City Attorney on this matter, we will bring it back at a future meeting. 3. Policy 1.1.6.5(a) Plan Provision: Policy 1.1.6.5.: PGA Boulevard shall be developed as the "Main Street" of Palm Beach Gardens using the following techniques: a. FollowinLy completion of the PGA Boulevard /Alternate A1A urban interchange. a new CRALLS (_Constrained Roadway at a Lower Level of Service) -A Level of Service Standard for PGA Boulevard shall be determined in coordination with Palm Beach County, the Regional Planning Council, and the State Department of Transportation with the maximum number of lanes being six; b. The Citv shall maintain the PGA design guidelines as regulations A streetseape J _ .1_. _L_11 L_ �.��._1___� L__ in u.,a.�__ Plaii 5na-li uCv.,iGV-_. vy .," which require the utilizations pf ihail utilize landscaping, boulevard strips, pedestrian walkways, bikeways, buffers, and setbacks to emphasize the various functions of PGA Boulevard as a divider of different land uses and as a center of the City; Staff Response: There is currently a lower level of service established for PGA Boulevard. This LOS is reflected in the County's comprehensive plan, but not the City's. With the EAR -based amendments, the City is adopting the current LOS in Table 2A. The County policy provides current (pre flyover) LOS and also states that "upon completion of the PGA Boulevard/State Road 811 Interchange, level of service D established for an appropriate uninterrupted flow facility, for both daily and peak hour traffic shall apply to the link between I -95 and SR 811. " Rather than adopt LOS D, staff has written Policy 1.1.6.5(a) to evaluate the need for a CRALLS. While it could be requested upon commencement of construction, it will be after the flyover is completed and open for travel that it can best be determined whether LOS D is appropriate or whether a lower level of service is still needed. Staff is neutral on this matter. 4. Professional Office Height Limit Plan Provision: Professional /Office (PO): Property designated PO is for future or existing business and office centers. The PO category was included in the plan to distinguish office uses from more intensive commercial uses such as retail. Professional Office land use activities will be limited in intensity to a maximums lot coverage of 35 % of the site and a maximum building height of 36 feet. The land development regulations mav_ further restrict intensities, Policy 1.1.1.4.: The City shall maintain rc�;�w, anu 1 %.Vise w �crc Am'C; )JCily, land development regulations which provide for a Planned Community District (PCD) which shall implement the following concepts:..... g,. Throueh the PCD's flexibility. the City Council may grant waivers to the non residential intensities described previously, Staff Response: The 36' height limit is for straight zoning projects. Policies 1.1.1.4 and 1.1.1.5 provide Council with the ability to grant waivers through the PCD or PUD process. Staff does not recommend a change. 5. Conceptual Thoroughfare Plan - provide ability to have private roads Plan Provision: Policv 2.1.2,3.: The City shall implement the Conceptual Thoroughfare Plan (Map O) to ensure that there is an adequate network of public street$ (City Collectors Neiizhborhood Collector$ and Local Roads) to efficiently move traffic within the City and. serve a$ a backup system to the County thoroughfare roads. Act»al alignments for these public roadways will be established as part of the development review process. Staff Response: The purpose of the conceptual thoroughfare plan is to designate future public roads which will complement and provide alternatives to the county roadway network. It would not be appropriate for these thoroughfares to be restricted in access by gates. Staff feels that the conceptual thoroughfare plan needs to be maintained as a public roadway system. If some of these roadways are not desired for full public access, they should be eliminated from the plan. After adoption, a comprehensive plan amendment would be needed in order to delete a roadway from the thoroughfare plan or to make a private, restricted access roadway. Staff does not recommend a change to the Objective 2.1.2, but defers to Council to determine which future roadways to depict on the map. 6. Permit on- street parking Plan Provision: Policy 2.13.4.1.: The City shall prohibit on- street parking on all arterial, City and Neighborhood collector roads. Staff Response: Collectors are designed to collect and distribute tall c from neighborhood to neighborhood, or within limited access subdivisions. Staff feels that roads such as Holly Drive, Burns Road or Ryder Cup Boulevard are not appropriate for on- street parking. Staff does not recommend a change. 7. Parkway System - Limit Hood Road to a 55' parkway easement Plan Provision: Policy 2.1.6.27.1.: The parkways are shown on Maps A and I and include the following _11 'U--- facilities s.iai1_ i ii�aui�auicu � Ycunwaya. 1) PGA Boulevard from Beeline Highway to Central Boulevard. 2) Central Boulevard from PGA Boulevard to Donald Ross Road. 3) Donald Ross Road from Prosperity Farms Road westward to the Palm Beach Gardens city limits. 4) Beeline Highway from PGA Boulevard to the Caloosa subdivision. 5) Hood Road from Prosperity Farms Road Ccfi«ai Bou.cvaiu to a future North - South Artery west of Florida's Turnpike. 6) Future North -South Artery west of Florida's Turnpike. 7) Future East -West Artery north of PGA Boulevard and south of Hood Road. Staff Response: Staff recommended designating the eastern portion of Hood Road as a parkway so that there would be a linear greenway and multi- use pathway which connected to Frenchman's Forest ecosite (and a possible nature center). Staff is able to agree to reducing the parkway width on the eastern portion of Hood Road (Central Boulevard to Prosperity Farms Road) to 230, however, the western portion should remain 300' wide. Staff is seeking Council input on this issue before proceeding with any changes. 8. Parkway System - reduce parkway easement Plan Provision: Policy 2.1.6.4.9:3.: The designated rights -of -way for parkways shall be 300 -400 feet. Staff Response: The City's Parkway System has been designated by Governor Chiles as an urban component of the Florida Greenways System. As well as providing a pathway system which promotes alternative modes of transportation, the parkway system provides greenways of native vegetative communities. Only the first phase of parkway improvements along PGA Boulevard have been completed. The second phase will include the native greenway. Central Boulevard frontage at the BentTree project provides the example of how the different objectives of the parkway system are achieved (preservation of native habitat, linear greenway, multi -use pathway buffered from the arterial with landscaping, etc.) A SS' parkway would not accomplish the linear greenway which is the component of the parkway system which led to its designation as a Florida Greenway. Staff does not recommend a change. 9. Eliminate super - majority vote for service provision in rural area. Plan Provision: Policy 9.1.4.2.(d): With a super- majority vote of the City Council, alternative service mechanisms or provision of services at `urban' levels may be approved in the rural service area. Staff Response: Policy 9.1.4.2. establishes the differing urban and rural level of service standards. To provide some jlexiblity, 9.1.4.2. (d) was proposed. Staff has not yet heard what DCA 's position is going to be on this policy. (We have heard that in other areas of the State they are requiring the local government to be restrictive with service provision in `rural' or `limited'service areas) This policy provides a means for alternate service provision without necessitating a comprehensive plan amendment. This policy applies which an alternative to the established LOS policy is requested, therefore, a supermajority vote is needed to approve something than what is established as the norm. Staff does not recommend a change. 10. Change the City's policy to allow commercial mining. Plan Provision: Policy 6.1.4.2.: All commercial mining practices shall be prohibited throughout the incorporated area of the City. Staff Response: This has been a city policy since at least 1990. Staff is currently revising the Excavation and Fill code to further implement this policy directive. Staff does not recommend a change, but defers to Council for policy directive. 11. Allowing removal of fill from Loxahatchee Slough. Plan Provision: See Policy 6.1.4.2. above. Staff Response: Staff recommends against adding policy language as the letter suggests, this will trigger an objection from DCA who is very caustious about policy provisions for activities which can occur in or around environmentally sensitive area. The City was not party to the sale of the Loxahatchee Slough and has no obligation to allow any mining offill which may have been agreed upon by the County and Foundation. The act of removing fill does not necessarily constitute 'commercial mining', and may be able to be permitted for the Slough restoration. Some uses of this removed fill, or the means by which it is conducted, may constitute `commercial mining', however. 4400 PGA Boulevard, Telephone: (561) 626 -4800 Suite 900 Palm Beach Gardens, Florida 33410 THE JOHN D. AND CATHERINE T. MACARTHUR FOUNDATION February 19, 1998 The Honorable Joseph R. Russo, Mayor City of Palm Beach Gardens Local Planning Agency 10500 N. Military Trail Palm Beach Gardens, Florida 33410 Re: Public Hearing February 19, 1998 Regarding EAR -Based Amendments and Proposed Ordinance 4, 1998 Dear Joe, The Foundation has reviewed and previously provided comments to your staff regard- ing the EAR -based amendments. Substantial progress has been made through work- ing with your staff on many issues. However, there are several issues that we still have concerns over and which adversely affect the financial value of Foundation land hold- ings. We request that the City Council sitting as the Local Planning Agency incorporate the following recommendations and direct staff to continue working with Foundation staff to resolve these issues. It is our expectation that during the Department of Com- munity Affairs review, that additional changes will be possible. Below is a list of our concerns: Future Land Use Element - Mixed -Use Development (MXD) Page 1-4 and Pol- icy 1.1.1.3, page 1 -11. a) In our opinion, the mandatory requirement of residential land use in all MXD developments may cause unintentional consequences. Residen- tial uses may, in fact, be in conflict with existing uses. For example, Foundation Parcel 5B that is located east of Loehmann's Plaza and north of North Corp would be severely limited by this residential re- quirement. Historically this area has been planned and developed as a commercial /industrial area. Introducing residential into this area is in- compatible with the corTimercial/industrial nature of this area and, in our opinion, should be avoided instead of encouraged. Secondly, the goals of MXD development, i.e., reduced traffic, integrated land uses, and pedestrian orientation can be achieved without requiring the residential component. For example, the Embassy Suites complex, which consists of retail, office and hotel, meets many of the intended functions of MXD but does not have a residential component. b) Our second MXD -Use Development concern is in regard to the granting of a waiver provision allowed in the current city comprehensive plan, but 2. not included in the EAR -based amendments. In the current plan, the following provision provides a waiver opportunity: ... "However, the City Council may waive this provision upon a finding that the intent of the MXD district can be met by a development with less than three (3) use types. Such exceptions may include a single owner /occupant of an entire (site) designated as MXD." As you know, there are not many undeveloped sites in the City that allow for new single -user office developments, i.e., Professional Office land use designation. The MXD waiver provides a mechanism that allows a major professional high wage - paying employer to relocate to the City without a one -year wait to process a land use change. The flexibility allowed by this current provision allows the Foundation to respond to the market place and sell land. For example, recently AT &T considered relocating 1,200 jobs to a Foundation parcel designated MXD located in the City. The Foundation was able to offer this MXD - designated site since the waiver provision would have allowed them to proceed, if approved by the City Council. Although AT &T eventually de- cided to relocate to Abacoa, there are other major corporations inter- ested in moving to this community. We believe they would benefit from this provision. In our opinion, the current provision allows the City to be flexible and proactive on certain parcels of land that have the location, roadway ac- cess and other attributes to be major employment and commercial cen- ters. Thus, we believe that the waiver provision should be included in the new MXD. Future Land Use Element DRI Vesting Language. We request that language be incorporated into the comprehensive plan that vests developments approved pursuant to Chapter 380.06 Florida Statues, i.e., Developments of Regional Impacts (DRI) and amendments to DRI's that are not substantial deviations. Our primary concern is the Regional Center. The Regional Center DRI has certain vested entitlements and assumed certain development order obligations. There are several provisions in the proposed comprehen- sive plan that will hamper development of Regional Center and not allow it to be developed as currently approved. Specifically, the maximum residential density of 12 dwelling units per acre is less than the 15 dwelling units per acre approved in the DRI. If the proposed maximum of 12 units per acre were imposed on the Re- gional Center, the development will not be able to achieve the 1,600 residential units approved. Another concern is the limit of two stories of professional offices adja- cent to residential areas. Several Regional Center development parcels are approved adjacent to residential areas. If these pods are limited to two stories, there is not enough land to build the remaining one million square feet of office space. 2 3. Land Use Element Policy 1.1.6.5(a). In our opinion, the timing of the CRALLS request should be tied to the letting of a construction contract for the PGA Blvd. /Alternate A1A urban interchange as opposed to completion as currently proposed in the EAR Based Amendments. We request that this be changed to be consistent with the County Traffic Performance Standard ordinance and further will allow the CRALLS request to be made two years earlier (2000/2001) as opposed to 2002/2003 for completion. 4. Land Use Element Professional /Office, Pages 1 -2. In our opinion, the maximum building height criteria of 36 feet is overly restrictive. We believe that the building height should be equivalent to the maximum, not greater than, the commercial land use building height. 5. Transportation Element Objective 2.1.2, Map O and Table 12A. We believe that policies affecting roads identified on the Conceptual Thoroughfare Plan should have additional flexibility. We recommend that the option of being designated public or private should be incorpo- rated into the policy, if the adjacent lands are owned by a single land owner. In many cases, the roadways are located on Foundation hold- ings that we believe are more likely to be developed as private gate - housed communities. As you know, public roadways are not appropriate nor compatible with gated communities. 6. Transportation Element Policy 2.1.3.1 - On- Street Parking Prohibited Neighbor- hood Collectors. On- street parking should be permitted and encouraged on neighborhood collector roadways, not prohibited as now proposed. Current planning trends, Florida Department of Transportation, and other state agencies now encourage on- street parking. Security of residential neighborhoods and traffic- calming techniques are additional reasons for encouraging on- street parking. 7. Transportation Element Policy 2.1.6.2 and Map A, Future Land Use Map and Map 1, Conceptual Linkage Map. We recommend that Hood Road Parkway between Prosperity Farms Road and Florida's Turnpike should be limited to a 55 -foot width park- way on both sides of the rights of way and not the 300 -400 feet as pro- posed. Precedence has been established for a narrower parkway with the approval of several recent projects such as Gardens Presbyterian Church and the Temple Judea redevelopment plan. Further, there are many existing developments (Westwood Gardens, KOA Campgrounds and Seacoast Utility) that make it impossible to create a unified func- tional parkway. As a result of these existing developments, it will impossible to provide the functionality intended for a 300 -400 foot parkway. As demonstrated along PGA Boulevard east of Central Avenue, the 55 -foot parkway pro- vides pedestrian and bike pathways as well as landscaping needs. K3 In regard to item seven of this policy, Future East -West Artery north of PGA Boulevard and south of Hood Road, we recommend that the park- way also be limited to 55 feet on both sides of the roadway, assuming that the roadway will be needed. 8. Transportation Element Policy 2.1.6.4 - Parkway Widths. In our opinion, parkway widths should be reduced from 300 -400 feet to widths that will provide the functionality intended for the parkway. The City should evaluate the need for these widths and determine if a 55- foot parkway can provide the same benefits. As stated above, PGA Boulevard east of Central Boulevard functions well in only 55 feet. It is beautifully landscaped and the bike /pedestrian path provides ample lin- ear park functions. 9. Infrastructure Element Reference to Policy 9.1.4.2. (d). The requirement of a super- majority vote of the City Council to allow al- ternative service mechanisms should be reconsidered. Further, in this regard, an item in the comprehensive plan that requires a super- majority is not necessary in our opinion. A simple majority, as is for the majority of Council decisions, should be adequate for any comprehensive plan items. Most major decisions, including the City's budget, are done on a majority basis. 10. Conservation Element Policy 6.1.4.2 - Prohibited Commercial Mining. Commercial fill operations are needed in the north county area to pro- vide efficient and economical fill needs of the community. Currently, be- cause of a lack of commercial mining operations in our area, much of the fill used for construction of homes, offices, roadways and public projects is imported from Palm City, Martin County and /or St. Lucie County. Total prohibition of fill excavation inherently means less afford- able housing, more expensive roads and public projects, as well as more air pollution and diesel fuel to haul fill from areas outside the county. We believe the City should provide fill mining operations to support the community development needs. The Foundation has potential fill sites and would be willing to collabora- tively identify sites. With proper restrictions, the commercial mining op- erations can be good neighbors and provide the fill needs for north county developments. 11. Conservation Element Policy - Allowing Removal of Fill From Loxahatchee Slough. We recommend that a policy be incorporated that allows the removal of fill and additional mining of fill from the C -18 canal located within the Loxahatchee Slough. In fact, restoration of the slough may require re- moval of fill from the C -18 Canal. Secondly, as part of the financial compensation of the sale of Loxa- chatchee Slough to the County, the Foundation retained a contractual right to remove fill from the C -18 Canal. Thus, not allowing removal of the fill is a financial loss to the Foundation. We request that the City in- 4 corporate a policy that recognizes and allows this mining -type operation in that portion of the C -18 Canal located within the Loxahatchee Slough. Although the Foundation believes we have completed a comprehensive review and have identified most of the issues, we reserve the right to provide additional comments. As stated in the first paragraph of this letter, we would like to continue working with you and your staff during the Department of Community Affairs' review. The Foundation recognizes that substantial progress has been made in resolving our concerns. However, we believe that if the EAR -based amendments are adopted as currently proposed, they would be contrary to contemporary development practices, create inordinate burden on the Foundation, and thus dramatically reduce the Founda- tion's ability to sell its property at current market value.
