Re: Proposal Review for Annual City Auction
An Evaluation Committee was formed to evaluate the RFP applicants for the Annual City
Auction. The Committee members were Dick Holliday, Jim Ballengee and Bob Patty. Each
committee member reviewed the two (2) proposals with respect to the bid price, support
services, staffing and qualifications. I have attached the memo sent to me from Jim & Dick
addressing their findings.
Karin Daniel & Associates and Jim Graham Co. were the two bids received for the auction.
The following are the findings from that committee:
1. Both bids were for 10% of buyer's premium.
2. Jim Graham Co. will require two paid (2) City employees, with first hand
knowledge of all vehicles, from the Vehicle Maintenance Department to be
present at the auction. Karlin Daniel does not have that requirement
3. The RFP requested a finaiclal statement, to protect the City's interest; which
Karlin Daniel & Associates complied with and Jim Graham Co. did not
4. The City has had an excellent working relationship in the past with Karlin Daniel
and Associates. They have always proven to be very professional in handling the
auction.
Recommendations:
At this time, the Public Works Department is requesting council consider a motion to hire
Karlin Daniel & Associates to perform this years City Auction and change the Auction date
from August 22 to September 12 or later. The Town of Palm Beach has scheduled their
auction on the same date and changing the date would allow more time to advertise. Should
you have any questions regarding these recommendations, please contact me. I will make
myself available for the next Council Meeting to answer any questions.

Re: Proposal Review for Annual City Auction
As per your request, the following is a summary of findings from Dick Holliday
and Jim Ballengee.
Karlin Daniel & Associates and Jim Graham Co. were the two bids received and
reviewed. Both bids for the Annual City Auction were approximately the same but
for the following reasons we recommend that Karlin Daniel & Associates be awarded
the bid:
1. Jim Graham Co. will require two paid (2) City employees, with first
hand knowledge of all vehicles, from the Vehicle Maintenance
Department to be present at the auction. Karlin Daniel does not have
that requirement.
2. RFP requested a financial statement, to protect the City's financial
interest, which Karlin Daniel & Associates complied with and Jim
Graham Co. did not.
3. The City has had an excellent working relationship in the past with
Karlin Daniel & Associates. They have always proven to be very

Interoffice Memorandum
TO: Bobbie Herakovich, City Manager
C1tooL
FROM: Dennis J. O'Rourke, Asst. Chief of Police
DATE: July 27, 1998
SUBJECT: Recommendation Concerning Request for Proposal
for School Crossing Guard Services
I have reviewed the proposal submitted on behalf of Express Personnel Services for
crossing guard services, by President Barbara Fossett. In order to duplicate the number
of guards and their hours of operation presently utilized, Ms. Fossett's proposed fee for
services is $170,808.00 per school year.
We currently budget $70,000.00 per school year to fund our crossing guards. In my
opinion we are not prepared to incur an additional $100,000.00 expenditure given the
parameters of the fiscal 1998/99 Police Department budget. Therefore, I recommend that
the proposal submitted by Express Personnel Services be rejected.
Finance Director Kent Olson and 1 have discussed this situation as we are both proponents
of privatizing crossing guard services. While the proposal is not financially feasible, the
Police Department will continue to expend more than 1,000 hours utilizing police officers
and aides to cross our children. In addition to paying a much higher salary, our officers
are unable to perform traffic related needs such as speed enforcement, etc; which
negatively impacts their ability to meet agreed upon goals and objectives.
Kent and I have agrccd to examine our current crossing posts in order to determine if less
posts are necessary than now utilized, without compromising safety. Another option is the
utilization of volunteers, as opposed to salaried guards. As the Police Department
expands it's volunteer program, I will explore this option further.
In closing, while the proposal submitted by Express Personnel Services for crossing guard
services would eliminate a severe burden to our traffic division, as well as enabling us to
better serve our citizenry, the cost of the proposal prevents acceptance at the present
time.

City Clerk
City of Palm Beach Gardens
10500 North Military Trail
Palm Beach Gardens, FL 33410
Express Personnel Services is pleased to provide the attached proposal for
School Crossing Guard Services. This letter is a supplement to the required
forms and includes clarification and supplemental information related to our
proposal.
CLARIFICATION. (Referring to page numbers in the Request for
Proposal.)
Page 3, paragraph 1 indicates that the contract will be awarded to the successful
proposer on August 6. This makes it impractical to provide a complete Master
Guard Personnel Listing by August 1, as requested on Page 8, item 8.8.a. See
"Implementation Schedule" below.
Page 3, LEGAL REQUIREMENTS, item 3. Since 'The obligations of the City
under this award are subject to the availability of funds ...................... ", it is also
understood that "the obligations of the Contractor under this contract are also
subject to the availability of funds lawfully appropriated and available for payment
for the proposed services ". Contractor reserves the right to terminate services if
funds are not available, or if payment for services is not within Contractor's
standard Terms and Conditions (enclosed).
Page 4. CONTRACTUAL AGREEMENT. In the event any of Contractor's
employees are to drive any vehicles or drive any motorized equipment,
Contractor's Vehicle Indemnity Agreement will have to be executed by City of
Palm Beach Gardens, Florida prior to said employees being allowed access to
said vehicles or motorized equipment. Copy of Vehicle indemnity agreement is
attached.
Since we anticipate that several of the crossing guards will be using their
personal autos to, move from station to station, we will also require them to
complete the individual vehicle indemnity agreement (also enclosed).
Express requires payment of invoices within ten days of receipt of invoice.
4047 Okeechobee Blvd., Habitat Center #209, West Palm Beach, FL 33409 5611471 -8285 FAX 561/471 -5927
Express' Standard Terms and Conditions are enclosed. Since many purchase
orders do not address issues relating to temporary staffing, we suggest that these
Terms and Conditions be incorporated into the Purchase Agreement.
Page 5, COST. Costs presented by Express on the Proposal Form represent
filling the schedule presented with the RFP on a daily basis. We calculate that
this schedule represents a total of 55.25 hours per day. Our rate per guard per
hour will be $14.50. Supervisor is provided at no additional cost. Using 210 days
per school year, plus 8 paid hours of training time per guard gives the totals in the
Proposal Summary. If actual usage is more or less than above, a standard rate
of $14.50 per hour will be used to adjust to actual usage. Costs will remain firm
through the two year term of the contract, and will be reviewed at the time of
review and extension as described on page 5, paragraph 1. Contractor reserves
the right to review and revise pricing during the term of the contract if average
daily usage falls below 45 hours per day.
Page 6. QUALIFICATIONS. See attached general information booklet and
attached client reference list.
-- Page 6. Section 8.3a Training. During meetings to discuss clarification to the
Request for Proposal, Assistant Chief O'Rourke indicated that actual training
would be conducted by the Police Department's FDOT certified trainer.
Contractor's role in training will be to insure that all personnel have received the
training and passed the exam, schedule training sessions with the Police
Department's trainer as required for new employees, and maintain records of
training and test scores for inspection as needed by the City or other agencies.
Express intends to ultimately have its field supervisor attain FDOT certification,
but that will not be possible within the time schedule required for implementing
this contract.
Page 8. Section 8.5. 'The field supervisor is not permitted to work as a regular
or back -up guard, but must be available to supervise all guard operations while
on duty ". This requirement is accepted, with the following qualification. Our field
supervisor will NOT leave a crossing unattended. If our supervisor finds a
crossing unexpectedly unattended, our supervisor will not leave that crossing to
supervise other guards, but will work at that crossing in an emergency coverage
situation until back up help can be summoned.
IMPLEMENTATION SCHEDULE.
It is Express' understanding that City of Palm Beach Gardens wishes to maximize
use of previously experienced guards who are currently on City payroll. On
contract award date, Express will require a list of current guards, their phone
numbers, addresses and a rating by the City of past performance in the crossing
guard position. We will present a draft of a letter for those employees, explaining
the changes for city review. Within one week of the review and approval, we will
contact all guards on the roster, determine which guards with acceptable or better
performance ratings are available, give them first preference of assignments and
explain the new relationship to them. We will also contact guards with poor
previous performance ratings and notify them that their services will not be
needed in the coming school year.
Within two weeks, we expect to recruit, screen and tentatively assign enough
supplemental guards to provide adequate coverage.
The request for proposal indicates that the City's Police Department will conduct
background checks at no charge to the Contractor. We anticipate these checks
will take about one week after submittal of a complete roster, which takes us
through week three.
We anticipate that training will take another week. Schedules and backup lists
can be finalized during training week and submitted to the City for approval on or
about September 6.
We understand that these dates may not match the school year schedule, so we
suggest an implementation meeting between Express and the City's
representatives for scheduling, training and background checking
immediately after bid opening and preliminary selection to review and, if
necessary, compress this schedule.
Sincerely,
Lee Fossett
Owner

funds; and that Mr. Fine had volunteered to donate the necessary

the PGA Bridge, prior to upcoming repairs.

CITY COUNCIL
SPECIAL REGULAR MEETING
JULY 22, 1998
The July 22, 1998, Special Regular Meeting of the City Council of
the City of Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, was called to order at
6:30 P.M. in the 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 City Clerk called the roll and the following elected officials
were found to be in attendance: Mayor Joseph R. Russo, Vice
Mayor Lauren Furtado, Councilman Eric Jablin, Councilman
David Clark and Councilman Carl Sabatello.
ANNOUNCEMENTS Mayor Russo stated the announcements were as posted.
BUDGET WORKSHOP City Manager Herakovich announced a tentative tax rate and rolled
back rate based on the tentative budget, which she explained would
not result in a tax increase for the residents unless there were later
changes to the budget. During review of budget categories,
requests for additional personnel and duties of current personnel
were discussed; job descriptions were requested by the City
Council to help them understand the duties assigned to specific
positions; the master site plan for a new fire station was clarified
to be a master design to be used for all future fire stations; the
number of computers used in City facilities and personnel assigned
to maintain them was discussed; Mayor Russo requested that a
uniform policy for travel expenses be established; the City
Manager suggested that the possibility of hiring an in -house
attorney be discussed later since there was no room for an attorney
until the new facilities were completed; a footpath in the Lake
Catherine area was requested to be included in the Parks and
Recreation budget; and the policy on use of City cars was explained
and the possibility of going to a car allowance instead of providing
vehicles was discussed. During discussion of the Police
Department budget, consensus was to raise the rate for hiring off -
duty police officers so that the City would not be operating this
service at a deficit and to approve the two additional police
personnel requested as well as filling existing vacancies. Needs
studies and design of a master site plan for a new Senior Center
which would be needed in two years were discussed. Mayor Russo
expressed his concerns about bringing engineering in- house.
CITY COUNCIL SPECIAL REGULAR MEETING, 7/22/98
2
Councilman Sabatello stated he did not support either in -house
engineering or an in -house attorney. Consensus was to stay with
outside engineering services and outside attorney services at this
time. Personnel options for review of City codes to deal with the
anticipated explosion of growth resulting from sale of MacArthur
Foundation lands was discussed. Mayor Russo suggested costs
could be recouped in application and permit fees going forward.
It was the consensus of the City Council that Option One, hiring an
outside consultant and a Planner to assist the consultant, was the
best solution. City Manager Herakovich presented different options
for district park boundaries along Central Boulevard north and east
of the elementary school and Duncan Middle School. Plan I,
112,000 acres, was chosen by consensus in order to get as much
land as possible since it would never again be offered at the price
now available.
Mayor Russo stated he would be voting against the items on
tonight's agenda, since he did not believe items should be on a
Special Meeting agenda unless the public had notified at a regular
City Council meeting that those items would be voted on at a
special meeting.
AWARDING OF BIDS
Micro Surfacing City Manager Herakovich stated this item was time critical and had
been placed on the agenda in order to qualify for FEMA funds.
After micro surfacing was recommended for use in the annual road
resurfacing program by Director of Public Works Bob Patty,
discussion ensued regarding prior concerns regarding the micro
surfacing formula. City Manager Herakovich explained that this
item was on the agenda requesting the City Council to re- authorize
the negotiated amount of the contract. The City Attorney explained
that there was an executed, signed contract, and that possible
withdrawal from the program set forth in that contract had been
discussed; the question was whether to pay the contractor for
mobilization costs incurred to date and have no product to answer
the questions regarding micro surfacing or whether to negotiate
with the contractor to come to agreement that for those same costs
a limited number of roadways would be micro surfaced in order to
answer the City's questions and to be satisfied that the proposed
surface would perform as expected. After discussion, Mayor
Russo recommended that Councilman Sabatello's suggestion for
legal review of the contract and the possibility of the contractor
furnishing a performance bond or Chair Pro Tem Jablin's
CITY COUNCIL SPECIAL REGULAR MEETING, 7/22/98
3
suggestion of the contractor possibly providing a longer warranty
be pursued and this issue brought back at a later meeting. Roger
Blangy, 11658 Hemlock Street, questioned what decision had been
reached and was advised by Mayor Russo that no decision had been
made and that it would be discussed at another meeting.
Threshold Inspection:
Municipal Complex Councilman Clark made a motion, seconded by Councilman Jablin,
to approve expansion of the City Engineer's contract to allow him
to subcontract threshold inspections for the municipal complex in
the amount of $20,000. During discussion of the motion
Councilman Sabatello requested addition to the scope of work of
inspection of new lights near the ballfields, if appropriate; and
questioned whether the City Engineer's office had sufficient
insurance coverage for this work, to which Mr. Lindahl responded
that the $1 million in coverage carried by his firm would be
sufficient. The motion carried by vote of 4 -1 with Mayor Russo
voting against the motion because the public had not been notified
at the last regular City Council meeting that this item would be
voted on at this special meeting.
Gardens Park Light Pole
Removal Councilman Clark made a motion, seconded by Councilman Jablin,
to approve removal of the light poles and fixtures from the present
Gardens Park ballfields by Suffolk Construction Company, Inc., in
the amount of $24,264.00. The motion carried by vote of 3 -2 with
Mayor Russo and Vice Mayor Furtado voting against the motion.
It was the consensus of the City Council to notify Suffolk
Construction Company that the City was not happy that this item
had been omitted from the original contract.
Allamanda Bridge Councilman Clark made a motion, seconded by Vice Mayor
Furtado, to award the bid to provide repairs to the Allamanda
Bridge to Murray Logan Construction, Inc., in the amount of
$69,500, by piggybacking the Northern Palm Beach County
Improvement District Contract. The motion carried by vote of 4 -1
with Mayor Russo voting against the motion because the public had
not been notified at the last regular City Council meeting that this
item would be voted on at this special meeting.
CONSENT AGENDA Vice Mayor Furtado made a motion, seconded by Councilman
Clark, to approve the Consent Agenda. The motion carried by vote
of 4 -1, with Mayor Russo voting against the motion because the
public had not been notified at the last regular City Council meeting
CITY COUNCIL SPECIAL REGULAR MEETING, 7/22/98

that this item would be voted on at this special meeting. The
following items were approved on the Consent Agenda:
1. Resolution 79, 1998 - Consideration of Approval to Provide
for an Amendment to Resolution 8, 1997, Subsequently
Amended by Resolution 8, 1997, Resolution 87, 1997, and
Resolution 3, 1998, to Extend the Date of the Dissolution of
the Neighborhood Initiative Task Force.
2. Resolution 80, 1998 - Consideration of Approval of
Ratification for Article 10 and 21 of Collective Bargaining
Agreement between the City and IAFF Local 1928.
3. Resolution 81, 1998 - Consideration of Approval Making
Certain Amendments and Modifications to Resolution 166,
1996 and Resolution 52, 1998 of the City Council Relating to
the City's General Obligation Bonds, Series 1998.
REORDERING AGENDA Principal Planner Kim Glas requested th; agenda be reordered
to discuss the Golf Digest PCD Master Plan and Proposed
Rezoning before review of the site plan for the Golf Campus.
ITEMS FOR DISCUSSION
Golf Digest PCD Master Plan and
Proposed Rezoning
Principal Planner Kim Glas reviewed planning considerations
which had been taken into account during review of the PCD
Master Plan for Golf Digest. 'These included preservation of
environmentally sensitive lands; parkways with adequate
buffering from the roadways; concurrency requirements
consisting of a 15 -acre improved park site, plus monies in lieu
of an additional 12.5 acres of parkland anticipated to be
applied to a district park; level of service standards to
accommodate a new fire station on the project; 32 acres for
a middle and elementary school regarding which
negotiations were currently being held between the School
Board and the petitioner; an aggressive buildout date of 2004;
and timing elements for common areas. Mayor Russo
expressed his desire to approve everything at once and not to
have the petitioner come forward with items for approval at
a later date, and referred to the original BallenIsles approval
as a guideline.
Golf Campus Site Plan Henry Skokowski, agent for the petitioner, presented the
project, Site Plan for a 26.15 acre "Golf Campus ", a 4.1 acre
golf maintenance facility, and two roadways connecting PGA
CITY COUNCIL SPECIAL REGULAR MEETING, 7/22/98
5
Boulevard with the golf courses. Mr. Skokowski announced
that dedication of the school sites would be accomplished
within a two -year period. The number of roadway lanes and
unit densities were discussed. Mayor Russo expressed
concern that the first phase would include residential units
when the CRAWLS designation for Military Trail had been
based on those units being built two years later into the
project. John Gary, representing JCB Golf Ventures, Morgan
Stanley, and Golf Digest, explained he had been before the
City Council two years ago and the golf course was to have
been started then and residential units two years later, and the
fact that the golf course did not get built until now should not
alter the fact that construction of residential units was planned
two years ago to begin about now and the impact on the roads
should be basically the same as if the golf course had been
built two years ago. Mr. Gary assured the City Council that
everything possible would be done to keep the high -end
rentals and the golf courses from becoming less than high
quality. Mr. Skokowski described vegetation for the project
as a much more natural look as opposed to projects such as
BallenIsles where vegetation had been planned to be much
more manicured. Another topic discussed by Mr. Skokowski
was waivers requested to pathway requirements for sidewalks
in areas where a third sidewalk would be unnecessary, or
where as much buffering or green space as possible was
desired. Concerns that were expressed included providing
sidewalks for schoolchildren bicycling to school, that staff
look at the fire station site to be sure it would work properly,
that provisions be spelled out as to what would become of the
sales office when it was no longer needed, that the School
Board be consulted regarding bus routes, that odors from the
and sounds from the water treatment facility would not be a
problem, that lighting be provided for the pedestrian
walkway, and holding future discussions regarding the
amount of dollars which might be paid in lieu of a fire station
located on the property. Harry Fix, representing the School
Board, commented that it was more feasible to utilize a
school site on this property within five years in lieu of a site
on Abacoa during that time frame.
Principal Planner Glas highlighted some of the conditions of
approval in the staff report recommended by staff and the
Planning and Zoning Commission, including a restriction on
CITY COUNCIL SPECIAL REGULAR MEETING, 7/22/98
0
the height of the office building, and recommended
disclosures to buyers. Ms. Glas explained that Eastpointe
property owners were present and had concerns regarding
seasonal traffic on Hood Road and additional access to the
project from Hood Road which might affect their access into
their neighborhood; and that PGA National residents were
concerned with construction traffic. The petitioner requested
anything that could be done to facilitate approval of the
project.
BUDGET MEETING A budget meeting was announced for August 3, 1998 at 6
p.m.
CITY ATTORNEY REPORT City Attorney Acton advised that the DeLuca case had been
won by the City, however there was one item which might be
appealed.

Dear
Co'neY Aden
Robert M,. _
I tw e\rstand the City of Palm Beach Gardens is considering a voluntary
Annexation of Soverei site on Idlewild Court. The purpose of this letter is to state my
concerns regarding potential commercial traffic on this residential road.
over the years, I have worked with the residents on Idlewild Court on various
matters ranging from code enforcement to drainage and speeding problems. I'm
concerned about the potentially large number of trips allowed on this street for a
commercial use. Since the proposed project is an Increase in the current density, I'd
respectfully request that you keep these concerns in mind.
Thank you for your consideration, and if I can be of assistance to you in any
way, please don't hesitate to contact my office. .

RE: Proposed Voluntary Annexation ( Soverel) into the City of Palm Beach
Gardens
Dear Ms. Glas:
ltd
t�
Thank you for submitting the netic : for a e C: 's pmposi? to vottint?rily annex
a parcel of land irnowin as the Soverel site. The parcel, totaling 4.36 acres, is
located on the south side of Idelwild Court, approximately 500 feet east of its
intersection with Prosperity Farms Road. On behalf of Palm Beach County, the
Planning Division has completed its assessment pursuant to our 'Interim,
Annexation Policy." For your information, I have also included a briefing sheet
on the annexation review process.
Of the departments/agencies reviewing the annexation, the following comments
were made:
Soverel North Property:
• Plannine Division: The site is contiguous to the municipal boundary of the
City of Palm Beach Gardens. The proposed annexation appears to meet
all of the requirements of Florida Statutes, Chapter 171. The City may
want to consider an involuntary annexation of the remaining parcels
(which total 1.18 acre in size), to reduce the irregular boundary and to
ensure that the area south of Idlewild Court is properly planned.
The Planning Division has land use compatibility concerns. The proposed
project, through its concurrent small scale amendment, is proposing an
increase in density to ten (10) units per acre. The proposed amendment
would leave several parcels with densities of LR -3, in between parcels
with a much higher density. We will be providing additional land use
comments through the IPARC system.
• Palm B "rh County Waretr Utilities District. The property lies outside of
the PBCWUD service area
Palm Beach Gardens Annexation 1 of 2 Response Letter
Engineering: Any development should be limited so as to not cause the total traffic on Idlewild to
exceed an average of 1500 trips per day ( tpd). This annexation is excluding Florence Court. If the
proposed development will access Florence Court, then Florence Court should be paved to County
standards. The two cul-de -sac roadways in and adjacent to the area are not County roads. Idlewild
Court- to the north is a County road. The County has an agreement for traffic control on County
Roads in Palm Beach Gardens.
County Attorney's Office: While this annexation creates a pocket -like area of three lots, the area
retains access to the unincorporated area via Idlewild Court. Also, a cul-de-sac running south off
of Idlewild Court is not isolated from the unincorporated area. Therefore, the proposed *nnexation
does not violate Chapter 171. However, it would be preferable to avoid the irregular bw=dary %-
annexing all property on the sout`uEin side of Idlewild Court. This could be accomplished by an
involuntary annexation.
Thank you for the opportunity to review and respond to this proposed annexation. Please be advised that
the comments represent staff review and not the position of the Board of County Commissioners. If you
have any further questions regarding this annexation, or any future annexation, please contact Tim Bell,
Senior Planner, at (561)233 -5331.

FUTURE LAND USE ELEMENT
Future Land Use Categories
Future land use for Palm Beach Gardens is depicted using a total of +3 land use c6tegorkt�'` -
including general land uses and recommended improvements associated with specific land uses.
Map 1-3 A presents future land uses for Palm Beach Gardens. The map provides for the projected
land use needs to the year 2015
The Future Land Use Map represents a ZW 2010 land use scenario. The map designates—w
urban-growth boundarv,. u Urban land Uses artAmipmted to-the
that are not environmentally sensitive. Western lands are designated with rural or low intensity
land uses, The primary reason for this was to provide a long-term positive and realistic
expectation of uisua. aauu ula tc' %'JL%'.Y . TV ILU an QLZ-a %&%3JkrLAaL-%L, O-W. V JLU -0 %, l U%, FLV V A"
an orderly service provision fashia , concurrent with the imnact of development.
The following is a description of Future Land Use Categories. These categories are further
explained and supplemented by the goals, objectives, and policies of this element.
Rural Residential (RR10 and RR20): Lying outside of the eastern, c�.� •.. pact
service area, vacant properties have been designated with one of two rural sub-categories:
Rural Residential 10: one dwelling unit per ten acres
Rural Residential 20: one dwelling unit per twenty acres
Rural areas that are- extremely wet are designated Rural Residential, 20 to protect. thel-*e�
values. -The intent of the rural residential designations is to provide low_ intensity develo
these areas while encouraging more intense, compact growth in the eastern areas and to prevent
urban sprawl.
In the Rural Residential sub-categories, limited agricultural uses are expected to co-exist with
residential uses. Agricultural uses permitted within the Rural Residential category must be
compatible with the environmental - characteristics and natural. resources,. as well as--wi&-'*e
lifestyle and quality of life of the residents.
Residential Very Low (RVL): The RVL category allows predominantly single family detached
residential development up to 1.0 unit per gross acre. The RVL category is also allows clustered
developments which preserve vast amounts of open space and naunmiL.msourm..:,:,,,Thusijugq,.' ,,,
planned community areas are permitted within this district even if they contain several types of
FUTURE LAND USE 6/98
EAR-based Amendment Ordinance 4, 1998
development so long as the overall== density of the development is consistent with that
permitted under the RVL category.
Residential_ Low (RL): The RL category allows predominantly single family detached residential .
development up to 4.0 units per gross acre. The RL category is intended to accomm
developments comparable to PGA National, Steeplechase,_ and the older residential parts -of. ih&-�= --
City. Thus, large, planned community areas are permitted within this district even if they -'6-o
several types of development as long as the overall pro density of the development is consistent
with that permitted under the RL category.
Residential Medium (RM): The RM category is primarily located along the western side of
Central Boulevard between PGA Boulevard and Hood Road, and along the 1-95 corridor between

is 7.0 dwelling units per gross acre. Again, planned community areas may contain residential
developments of higher net densities so long as the overall density of the area is consistent with
the RM category.
Residential High (RJJ): Property designated RH is intended to assist the private sector in
providing affordable housing in Palm Beach Gardens. It allows up to 10.0 dwelling units per
gross acre and is primarily located adjacent to major employment, areas or contiguous to major
arterials which may accommodate mass transit facilities in the future.
Mobile Home (MH): The City has not proposed any new mobile home sites on the Future Land
Use Map; however, mobile homes =do are a permissible use in mixed use districts. The existing
mobile home park located at the northwest comer of PGA Boulevard and Prosperity Farms Road
is shown on the Future Land Use Map as a mobile home land use. Maximum density permitted,
in the MH designation is 7.0 mobile homes per gross acre. Individual mobile homes and
manufactured homes are mrinitted on lots in all residential cateizories - see Poficv 3.1.1.8-- t� =-=.--
Commercial (C): The C designation is intended to accommodate awide range of retail
general commercial uses. It is a site-specific designation that depicts existing commercial uses and
proposes future commercial areas at primary intersections., The specific regulations and uses'="..
associated with development within the areas designated C will be determined during the zoning
of the properties. Commercial land use activities will be limited in intensity to a maximum -
aximu . m16C7`-'-
coverage of 35 % of the site and a maximum building height of 50 feet. The land. development _ -.. - -.
regulations may- further restrict intensities.
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 maximum lot coverage of 35% of the site and a maximum building height of 36 feet. -The
land development regulations may further restrict intensities.

the Palm Beach Community College and North County Courthouse on PGA Boulevard. Public
and institutional uses are allowed in all land use categories subject to limitations and locational
criteria identified in this Plan and/or outlined in the Palm Beach Gardens Zoning code. These uses
will be delineated on the Future Land Use Map at the next subsequent amendment process.
Public /institutional uses will be approved as conditional uses pursuant to the Palm Beach Gardens - -
Zoning Code if the specific rules and locational criteria governing individual conditional uses are -- ,
complied with. Certain intensive public /institutional uses will not be allowed in residential areas,
such as land fills, airports and wastewater treatment plants.
Recreation/Open Space (ROS): The ROS category is- iatended-te- designates public parks and

environmentally sensitive or environmentally significant which have been set aside as protected
preserves. Limited development. such as passive recreation or ecotourism activities are permitted
within this cateaorv. The intent of the designation is to ensure that areas designated CONS are
preserved or developed in a manner that is responsive to on -site environmental constraints.:.___
Development within areas designated CONS shall not exceed a density of 1.0 dwelling unit per
20 acres. Any development that does occur should preserve environmentally sensitive areas_ by
clustering development as appropriate. -
Golf (G): The G category portrays areas specifically intended or used for golf courses. This
designation can include public and private golf courses.
Mixed Use Development (MXD): The MXD designation is designed for new development which
-is snrramded characterized by -a- variety of existing 1 t1 %land,use- ,types. The - intent ofrthe.-, ..,. -� .- ..
district is to provide for a mixture of uses on single,, huge 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. 'Phis future land use designation is also
intended to foster infill and redevelopment efforts. to deter urban sprawl and to encourage new
affordable housing opportunities. as well as lessen the need for additional vehicular trins through
the internalization of trins within a neighborhood or nroiect. To create a functioning. multi-
faceted tvne of develonment. 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 -
thanimnacts from differing uses are mitigated through site design techniques. and where impacts
from differing uses are expected to benefit from the close immediate proximity of comnlementary
uses. All requests for development approval based on a mixed use concept must be able to
demonstrate functional horizontal inteeration of the allowable uses. and where applicable. vertical
integration as 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.

_FUTURE LAND-USE 6/98 -, 1-9
EAR-based Amendment; Ordinance 4, 1998
In addition to presenting the Future Land use categories described above, the Future Land Use
Map also includes two M&y %-.u"uaucu transpormtion components. The Transportation Traffit
Cua.uiauvu Element of this Comprehensive Plan provides further details on these components.
Interchange (o): The Future Land Use Map designates sevens interchanges within the City.---__ -
Fern Five of the interchanges shown on the map are existing:. I -95 and'Northlake Boulevard;-I =95 - -_
and PGA Boulevard; I -95 and Military Trail: I -95 and Donald Ross Road; and the Turnpike and
PGA Boulevard. The PGA Boulevard and Alternate AIA urban interchanve is currently under
design and is nrogrammed by FDOT for construction in 2000 /2001. free Im future
interchanges shown for I -95 and Central Boulevard, Cam. au.: AIA, and Northlake
Boulevard and the Turnpike will not be needed within the first five -year planning timeframe.
�... _: However;- they�are in <ordevto anticipate=tbeir,nght -of -way- requirements -consuuction�- *-
and to recognize their, potential impact on surroundingi future land uses.
Parkway (0000): The Parkway designation is shown along some of the major arterials within
the City. The intent of the Parkway designation is to identify and preserve a corridor of between
300 and 400 feet within which the arterial roadway can occur along with bikeways, pedestrian
paths, native vegetative greenways. linear parks, and landscaping. The, parkway cross - section will
provide an aesthetically pleasing buffer between highly traveled arterials and surrounding
residential areas. as well as a safe bvwav for alternative modes of trancnortation. The Parkwav
Svstem has been designated as an urban component of the Florida Greenwav_ System. It is described
in more detail in the Conservation and Transnortation Elements.
One major objective of designating Parkways is to eliminate the ,perceived need of using strip
commercial as a buffer between arterials and residential areas. Therefore, the Parkway concept
is integrated into the philosophy of designating commercial and employment areas at intersections
or "nodes ", eliminating the need for strip commercial use. 7.

Neiehborhgpd Park
The neiehborhood Dark is a "walk to" Dark. eenerally located alone streets where DeoDle can walk orbicvcle without _ .
encounterine heavv traffic. It serves the DoDulation of a neiehborhood in a radius of uD_ .to one -half mile and e_enerally .
has 2 acres for each 1.000 Dopulation. The desirable $i7,q is 15 acres.
Because the service areas of a neiehborhood Dark and an elementary school often coincide. it is desirable for the
neiehborhood Dark to physically join the elementary school when feasible. Both Dark and schppl serve the same basic
DoDulation, share compatible land uses, and maintain recreation facilities that are of mutual benefit,
Since recreation needs vary_ from one neiehborhood to another. site design should be flexible in order to meet the
Darticular recreation needs of a neiehborhood. Site desien should also reflect the character of a neiehborhood and
incorporate compatible elements of both Dassive and active tvm of recreation. The Dark area should be suitable for
intense recreational activities. TvDical facilities developed in a neiehborhood Dark may include play amwaft�
RECREATION 7-1

Community Park
A community Dark is a "ride to" park located near maior streets or arterials. It is designed to serve the needs of four tV
six neighborhoods - which may bg said to constitute a community - and serves community residents within a radius of
uD to to thr4e miles. Non- vghicular access to community parks is an important aspect of theta parks. Non- vehicgla,
access can be enhanced by bike paths and Dedestrian walkways. A minimum of 25 acres for each community park j
recgmmendgd, with acreage needs based on an optimum standard of 5 acres Der 1.000 oopulation. A community Dark
offers a wide ranae of programs and facilities fqr individuals and families. Just as a nKiahborhood Dark fulfils the
recreation nggds of a neighbgrhood, a community park i$ designed to meet the recreation need$ of an entire community.
The Dark area should be suitable for intense recreational activities. Typical facilities•at:a community Dark include ..
swimmine Dogls, ball fields, tennis courts, play areas, picnic areas, multi - purpose courts. recreation buildines. and sDorts
fields. Additignal recreation facilities may be included tq-meet a particular recregtion demand in a community.

Urban - Distrust Park
While maintainine a level of neighborhood and community Darks. the City also wishes to include one or more district
Darks into the recreational system. An urban - district Dark is designed to serve the recreation needs of several
communities. or a city and usually Drovides areas and facilities that are resource based. The Dark area may contain
natural gr aesthetic quality fqr outdoor recreation, such as picnicking. boating. fishing. swimming. camping and trail
uses. as well as active play areas. A secondary objective may be the conservation and management of the
naturaVgpltural environment, providing- opportunities fqr viewing. studying nature and wildlife habitat. The minimum
_desirable size for an urban- district park is 200 acres.
The most important aspect of an urban - district park is that it provides recreational ooportunities that are resource based.
Desien and development of all outdoor recreation resources and facilities should promote an atmq$pherg of beauty and
serenity that is based directly on the natural environment_
Specialized Recreational Facilities
These sites will vary widely in size and the number of residents served. Examples of specialized facilities would include
_ marinas. libraries. swimming Dools. zoos. nature centers. outdoor theaters and publicly -gwned golf courses. Specialized
facilities may be aDDropriate in combination with a community or urban - district park.
Objective 7.1.2.: Public funds, gifts and contributions, mandatory fees and/or deductions, and

4) Conform with future land uses as shown on the Future Land Use Map of the Future Land
Use Element of this Comprehensive Plan.
CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS IMPLEMENTATION
This section addresses public facility deficiencies for which the city . has financial responsibility in
accordance with Rule 9J- 5.005(1)(c) and 9J- 5.016(4), Florida Administrative Code. As
discussed in the other elements of this Comprehensive Plan, there are only limited facilities for
which the city has financial responsibility. These include all local roads and two collectors,
a limited drainage net«-ork, police, fire /ems, and recreational facilities. Major transportation
links and potable water, sanitary sewer, solid waste, and drainage systems are under the
jurisdiction of other public agencies. Thus, while some -of these systems have existing and projected
deficiencies, they are the financial responsibility-of other agencies. As. a result. these system
deficiencies will not be addressed in this section.
a ■ aaaa� a..aa cuaatian Transportation
All arterial roads within the city belong to either the county or the state. The city is responsible for
only the local streets and two collectors. Only one of these city facilities have either an
existing deficiency or a deficiency projected within the next five years. As is discussed further
in the Transportation Element. Bums Road cannot be exnanded to its planned cross - section until I -95
i$ widened and the Bums Road undemass is of a width appropriate for a 4 -lane collector. This I -95
improvement will not occur within the next five nears, therefore Burns Road is a temporarily
constrained facility.. The only expenditures necessary for the city -owned street system are ongoing
maintenance. The maintenance costs are covered under the operations portion of the city budget
and do not meet the cost threshold ($50,000), established by this Comprehensive Plan to be
classified as capital improvements.
The City's traffic standards, concurrency management system and the Countywide Traffic
Performance Standards require deficiencies.and needs..to be.met prior to additional. impact. Should
project - generated roadway needs occur in the future, -.the City shall require as a condition of
approval, all improvements to. be programmed_: for completion or be carried out by the specific..
development(s).
Sanitary Sewer and Potable Water
The potable water and sanitary sewer systems within the city are owned by the Seacoast Utility
Authority (Utility Authority). The Utility Authority was previously under private ownership but
was reeendy purchased by a consortium of cities, including Palm Beach Gardens, and the county.
However, the Utility Authority is a separate entity with its own revenues, expenditures, and staff.
Therefore, the City of Palm Beach Gardens has no fiscal responsibility concerning the
operation, maintenance or expansion of the potable water or sewer systems.
CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS 6/98 9 -8
EAR -Based Amendments Ordinance 4, 1998
Solid Waste
Through the use of an independent contractor, the City of Palm Beach Gardens provides residential
solid waste pick -up. However, under statutory agreement, all solid waste generated in the city
must be taken to facilities owned and operated by the Solid Waste Authority of Palm Beach County
(SWA). Thus, the city has no financial responsibilities for any solid waste disposal facilities.
Drainage $ urface Water Management
The city owns portions of a small drainage system located in the oldest portions of the city. No
existing deficiencies have been identified, as the existing development meets the established level
of service standards. While the areas served by the facilities are almost builtout, any redevelopment
or new development will conform with the level of service standards established for new
development. Therefore, no deficiencies are projected. Sub -hasin drainage Studies and host - October
1995 flood system assessments may improvements needed to maintain level of service, P
few of these improvements may be needed in the City's limited portion of the surface water
management system. The At this time, the only expenditures necessary for the system are ongoing
maintenance.
The-maintenance costs are covered under the operations portion of the city budget and do not meet
the cost threshold ($50,000), established by this Comprehensive Plan to be classified as capital
improvements.
The remainder of the drainage system in the city is under the jurisdiction of the Northern Palm
Beach County Improvement ` atcr Ccnuoll District (NPBC` 1`)<D) who is responsible for the
system operation, maintenance, and expansion. Existing development conforms with the
established level of service standards, therefore, no deficiencies have been identified. All future
development areas of the city are expected to be serviced by NPBC` "%'jD systems. These systems
shall meet the level of service standards for new development.
Recreation
The City of Palm Beach Gardens is entirely responsible for-providing recreation facilities to
residents of the city. The county provides some regional facilities in areas near the city; however,
the recreation level of service standard established by this plan includes only city-owned
neighborhood and community facilities. Therefore, the city is solely responsible for insuring
the level of service standard is met.
Table 7-45- in the Recreation and Open Space Element Support Document of this Comprehensive
Plan indicates the city will have needs for additional improved park land during the next five years
____ __ Y,_._ I ��s As discussed in that element, this deficit is to be made -up

Dermanent residents.
Table 9A indicates the amount of acreage and expenditures needed to address the projected Darks
and recreation deficit. As the table shows, there are some land needs beeinnina in the year 20QQ,
This deficit may be eliminated through the improvement of an 8 -acre parcel on Howell Lane that
was dedicated to the City for recreation Durposes. vet remains vacant. The City also has a 9 -acr :,
Darcel which it lust purchased pn Lilac Street which is being Dlanned for recreation facilities,

each year by the adopted level of service and then subtracting the inventory from the previous
year. The population projections are for the permanent population as shown in Table 1 -I a of the
Future Land Use Element. The precise location..,of. the, proposed park improvements cannot be
shown at this time since the park sites will be.-acquired and .developed as the vacant land is
developed. Almost all of the park improvements shown in Table 9A are expected to be located east
of the Florida's Turnpike with a majority located east of I -95. All of the recreational improvements,
as shown in Table 9A, are consist; nt with other elements of the Comprehensive Plan.
The. cost per acre presented, TaHe 9A is calculated by adding the projected land costs plus
improvement costs. For the purposes of this calculation, land is estimated to average $60,000
per acre and improvements at $95.OQQ $200J,000 per acre for a total of $155.OQQ $260,000 per acre

master plan which will identify future park sites and desired facilities

residents. These are objectives which are used for facility Dlannine and annual budQetine purposes,
The City would like to be in a situation where it can adopt these obiectives as formal level of service
standards in the ck)mprehensive plan. t,Jntil the facilities that are eliminated due to the municioaA
complex are feplaccd, the City is not prepared to formally adopt these obiectives.
Public Safety
The Future Conditions section of the Public Safety Element Support Docpmgnt identifies fire
stations, police facilities and equipment that will be required as capital projects to maintain the
adopted levels of service as Palm Beach Gardens develops (Tables 10 -4 and l U -8). These level of
service standards will not be a formal requirement of the concurrence management program, but will
be evaluated during development review...
Approximately 'T° U h 1 % of the City is currently vacant,or undeveloped. The development of these
areas, with the inclusion of parcels through annexation, will necessitate additional public safety
services and facilities. The City shall undertake measures to ensur that adequate land and
equipment is available for police, fire and emergency assistance facilities to serve its current and
future residents. The Police and Fire Departments are funded primarily through ad valorem taxes.
The use of impact fees is the preferred method to ensure that new development offset the need for
public services created by such development.

Additional capital expenditures will be necessary to maintain the adopted levels of service (Table
9A6). These have been projected based upon the adopted urban level of service standards of 1150
service calls/re$ponding officer and a 5 minute response time to 90% of all calls. Response time is
measured as the time from receipt of a dispatched call until the first due unit arrives at the scene..:.

EAR -Based Amendments Ordinance 4, 1998
Implementation Programs
The most obvious tool to implement the Capital Improvement Element is the capital improvements
program which the City will update on a regular basis. Additionally, in accordance with the goals,
objectives, and policies of the elements of this Comprehensive Plan, the city will maintain or
adopt new land development regulations and procedures to insure the levels of service standards
adopted by this plan arc met or exceeded. by :uy ;, 1990, These regulations and procedures will
require that all public facilities necessary to service new development at the adopted levels of
service standards are available prior to or concurrent with the impacts of the new development.
Furthermore, the regulations will be designed to simplify and streamline the existing regulatory
programs.
The regulations and procedures to be maintained or newly adopted. include. but are. not limited to:
• traffic (city road impact fee$ vet to E e adopted) and recreation: impact fee:ordinances;
o revised development application procedures which require an assessment of the ability
of existing facilities to accommodate proposed development;
• regulations whi::h permit the phasing of development in concert with the provision of
necessary public facilities;
o the preparation of a capital improvements budget as part of the city's annual budget to insure
all facility deficiencies are identified and addressed;
• an annual monitoring and evaluation process to update the capital improvements element
and any deficiencies addressed therein;
o the prioritizing of capital expenditures to insure facility deficiencies take priority over
non -health and safety capital projects;
• an assessment of the city's fiscal capabilities to schedule and . implement capital
improvement projects; and
o an annual review of the Comprehensive Plan for significantchanges .in growth projections
and/or facility requirements.
These regulations and procedures are identified in more detail in the goals, objectives, and policies
section of each element of this plan plus other sections of the text of this element. In all cases,
the city will not approve, development which would cause the public facilities addressed by this
Comprehensive Plan to operate below their adopted levels of service standards.
CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS 6/98 9 -17
EAR -Based Amendments Ordinance 4, 1998
IV. MONITORING AND EVALUATION
Chapter 163 of the Florida Statutes requires the Capital Improvement Element to be
continuously monitored and evaluated. Therefore, this element will be reviewed on an annual
basis to ensure that required fiscal resources will be available to provide the public facilities
needed to support the adopted level of service standards.
The annual review will be the responsibility of the City Manager, the City Finance Director, the
Local Planning Agency, with assi$tance by the Growth Manaeement Department and a Civl CN- JuU,;.;,
aYfm:..tcu C«:�:��'� Au.i,ory ^ -i—iii ,itte,. This group's findings and recommendations will be
presented to the Mayor and City Council at a public meeting. The City Council will then direct
staff to take appropriate actions based upon the review committee's findings and recommendations.
The City, in conducting its annual . review of the. Capital Improvements Element, will consider
the following factors and will amend the element accordingly:
1. Any corrections, updates, and modifications concerning costs; revenue sources;
acceptance of facilities pursuant to dedications which are consistent with the element; or the
date of construction of :any facility enumerated in the Element;
2. The Capital Improvement Element's consistency with other elements of the
Comprehensive Plan and its support of the Future Land Use Map;
3. The priority assignment of existing public facility deficiencies;
4. The City's progress in meeting those needs determined to be existing deficiencies;
5. The criteria used to evaluate capital improvement projects in order to ensure that
projects are being ranked in their appropriate order of priority;
6. The City's effectiveness in maintaining the adopted LOS standards;
7. The City's effectiveness in reviewing the impacts of plans and . programs of state agencies
and water management districts that provide public facilities within -the city's jurisdiction;
8. The effectiveness of impact - fees for assessing = new tdevelopment a pro rata share of the
improvement costs which they generate;
9. The impacts of special districts and any regional facility (DRI) and service provision upon
the City's ability to maintain its adopted LOS standards;
10. Efforts made to secure grants of private funds, whenever available, to finance the
provision of capital improvements;
11. The transfer of any unexpected account balance;
12. The criteria used to evaluate proposed plan amendments and requests for new
CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS 6/98 9 -18
EAR. -Based Amendments Ordinance 4, 1998
development of redevelopment; and
13. Capital improvements needed for the latter part of the planning period, for inclusion in
the 5 -year Schedule of Improvements.
In an effort to make the annual Comprehensive Plan review efficient and effective, the
Council will require it to be completed prior to the beginning of the annual budgeting process.
All departments within the city will be directed to provide up -to -date information and to make staff
available to assist in the review. Formal recommendations for Comprehensive Plan amendments
will be made in conjunction with the submittal of the annual budget.

The Citv submitted the EAR. which evaluated the 1990 Comrehensive Plan. to the Department
of Communitv Affairs (DCA) on August 20. 1996. The EAR was found sufficient by DCA in
December. 1996. This report with any revisions will be adopted as part of the revised -1989 1990
Comprehensive Plan, which will be transmitted to DCA in March. 1998. This rep_ ort will be
consulted and followed in preparing the +994 2001 EAR.
Citizen Participation
Citizen participation and input will play an important role in the preparation and adoption of the
EAR. After a draft of the EAR has been prepared it will be presented to the Local Planning
Agency (LPA) in at least one advertised public hearing. Any citizens with comments on the EAR
will be allowed to speak during this meeting. The LPA will then forward the EAR with a
recommendation for approval to the City Council. The City Council must adopt the EAR in an
advertised public hearing within 90 days following receipt of it from the LPA. Following
adoption the City Council will then forward the EAR.to the Department of Community Affairs
(DCA) for their review.
Data Update
Baseline data used in the preparation of the plan will be reviewed. The EAR will recommend
which data should be changed, updated, added, or deleted. In addition, measurable objectives
which were to be followed during the preceding five years of the plan will be reviewed. Those
objectives which need to be revised will be identified.
MONITORING & EVALUATION 2/98 11 -1 Ordinance 4, 1998
Accomplishments
All of the plan's goals, objectives, and policies (GOPs) will be reviewed and the degree to which
they have been successfully accomplished will be noted. This information may be presented in
the form of a graph or matrix.
Negative Influences
Obstacles or problems which negatively affected the degree to which some GOPs were
implemented will be identified. These may be outside factors which the city cannot control, such
as national economic trends or severe weather conditions. The potential for re- occurrence of these
factors will be determined.
Revisions to GOPS
Following the identification of deficiencies in the GOPs or changed conditions which affected the
GOPs, new or revised GOPs will be recommended. These will not become part of the plan but
they will be considered and included as part of the plan update. The new or revised GOPs should
reflect the negative conditions, accomplishments, and updated data identified in the previous
sections.
Monitoring and Evaluation
The city's Comprehensive Plan is a dynamic document which needs to be continuously reviewed.
As conditions and influences change, so should the plan.
At least once a year, the plan will be reviewed in several ways. First, the..baseline data will be
reviewed including economic assumptions and financial, information. 'This. will include a.thorough
review of the Capital ,Improvements Element and any infrastructure- improvements, which have
been made.
Next, a cursory review of the GOPs will be made to identify any major deficiencies. If major
deficiencies are found, the plan will be amended. Otherwise, any minor problems will be noted
for inclusion in the five -year EAR.
Finally, the Future Land Use Element, including the Future Land Use Map, will be reviewed for
consistency with the rest of the plan and any land development which may have occurred. This
effort will include a review for consistency with the city's
zoning ordinance and other land use regulations.

Palm Beach Gardens 98 -1 and 98 -2ER
98 -1
6/15/98 draft
No objections were received from the Department of Community Affairs. The petitioner for the land
use change has responded to the comments from the review agencies (Attachment A).
9$-2F, K
Objection # 1: Conservation and Commercial Recreation density /intensity standards.
CITY RESPONSE: Consistent with DCA's recommendation, the City will maintain the current text
defining the Conservation Category, which sets a density of 1 du/20 ac for parcels designated
Conservation. And, the Commercial Recreation definition has been revised to add a better intensity
threshold.
Conservation (CONS): The Conservation designation applies to areas identified
as environmentally sensitive or environmentally significant which have been set
aside as orotected preserves. Limited development, such as vassive recreation or
gcgtqurism activities are permitted within this catee_orv. The intent of the
designation is to ensure that areas designated CONS are preserved or
developed in a manner that is responsive to on -site environmental constraints.
Development within areas designated CONS shall not exceed a density of 1.0
dwelling unit per 20 acres. Any development that does occur should preserve
environmentally sensitive areas by clustering development as appropriate.
Commercial Recreation (CR): The CR designation has been provided to reflect
and accommodate major public and private commercial recreation facilities that
meet a portion of the recreational needs of residents and tourists. Many of these
facilities were conceived as profit - making enterprises and /or are in private
ownership. Uses permitted within this category include golf courses, outdoor and
indoor recreational facilities such as tennis clubs, amusement and sport centers,
outdoor amphitheaters, hunting and gun clubs, and outdoor wildlife attractions.
Commercial recreation uses shall be rezoned and ann_ roved as a Planned
Community District or Planned Unit Development (see Policies 1.1.1.4 and
1.1.1.5). These activities will be limited in intensity to a maximmn lot coverage
of 40% of the site and a maximum building height of 45 feet. The land
development regulations may further restrict intensities.
I
Objection 42: Policy 1.1.1.3 - MXD density clarification.
CITY RESPONSE: Additions have been made to the text to clarify that the 15 du/ac for Residential
High applies to Mixed Use Developments:
Mixed Use Development (MXD): The MXD designation is designed for new
development which is surrounded characterized by a variety of existing integrate d
land use types. The intent of the district is to provide for a mixture of uses on
single; -las ge 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 desiznatio❑ is
also intended to foster infil1 and,�redevelooment efforts. to deter urban sprawl and
to encourage new affordable housing opoortunities. as, well as lessen the need for
additional vehicular trios through the internalization of trios within a neiehborhood
or oroiect. To create a functioning. multi- fa "ted tvpe of development. mixed use
development. is dependent on the successful integration of distinct uses.
Integration is defined as the combination of di,�;inct uses on a single site where the
impacts from differing uses are mitie_ated through site design technioues. and
where impacts from differing uses are expected to benefit from the close
immediate proximity of complementary uses. All rea_uests 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 as 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 ineltrde a maintain
mixed - use.: supplemental_? , regulations, zorA tg;distriet to provide further
criteria . for the development 'of sites with MXD. Future Land Use
designations. including parking requirements. :permitted uses. setbacks and
other considerati,pns.
2. MXDs shall have frontage on at least one arterial. The City's Conceptual
Thoroughfare Plan shall be accommodated to expand the roadwav network
through the provision of new local streets which serve new neighborhoods

Obiection 03: Policy 1.1.1.7 - land use categories in which schools are allowable.
CITY RESPONSE: The City has revised Policy 1.1.1.7 to provide better specificity. Further, the
City is continuing to work through the Palm Beach Countywide Intergovernmental Program to
develop model language which meets the needs of Chapter 163.3177(h). This will be forwarded in
a future amendment package prior to the December, 1999 deadline. All public schools have been
identified and designated P/I on the Existing and Future Land Use Maps. No future schools sites
have been determined as of yet by the School Board. Table 1 -6 of the Support Documents identifies
that schools are allowable uses within all residential areas. Additional text has been added on page
1 -23 which evaluates the amount of vacant land on which schools would be an allowable use.
Policy 1.1.1.7: The City shall ensure the availability of suitable land for public and
institutional uses (as defined on page 1 -3) necessary to support development by: .
ji Designating land on the Future Land Use Map for public /institutional use. The City

and locational criteria as identified in this Plan. Such locational criteria shall include
the following standards:
(a) Public /Institutional buildings shall be specifically prohibited in areas
designated as Conservation and other environmentally sensitive lands,
including wetlands, 100 -year floodplains, groundwater aquifer recharge
areas, areas set aside by development to meet the 25 percent preservation of
native ecological communities and wildlife habitats. New or Expanded
)?ublicllttstitutional >; acilitigs shall not be encouraged within the coastal area
and shall meet the requirement$ of the Coastal Management Element.
(b) Public/Institutional Uses shall be located in areas where there are
adequate transportation facilities to support the proposed use based on the
adopted level of service standard for traffic circulation. Preference shall be
given to the location of such uses and facilities along City collectors and
arterials as may be appropriate.
.i
(c) Public /institutional Uses shall hilt' . a u u%,- ,J-iiJi be limited in
intensity to a maximum lot coverage of 40% of the site and a maximurri
building height n be c w n
_ f 59 feet ��
(d) Schools shall be considered as compatible and allowable in areas
designated with any residential land use cateQory (RR20, RR10. RVT-_

and similar suoDort facilities shall be located and buffered on the DroDosed
Site to minimize impacts on adjacent DroDerties. Communication towers on
school or other public DroDertv shall be consistent with the siting and safetv
criteria contained in the Lar10 Develoo_ ment Regulations and shall rea_uire
Citv Council approval.
(f) Landfills, airports, wastewater treatment plants, universities and regional
hospitals shall not be allowed in residential areas and shall require a
comprehensive plan amendment to the Public/Institutional (P) land use

Future Land Ilse Support Document, Provision of Urban Services. page 1 -23:
The Palm Beach County School Board provides public educational facilities and
programs for school -aged children on a countywide basis. There are seven Dublin
schools in the City, three elementary. two middle and two. high schools. These are,
identified with public /institutional uses on the existing and future land use mans. Due
to the School Board's racial balance obiectives. Citv residents do not necessarily attend
the school closest to their homes or even schools within the city limits. At this time. the
School Board-has not identified any future school sites within the City limits. However,
a residential Droiect currently under review is proposing_ the dedication of 32 acres for
future elementary and middle schools. The School Board's five year facility_ plan d4es
not contain any new or expanded facilities in Palm Beach Gardens.
Realizing the need for adequate educational facilities, the City has identified Schools as
a tvne of `public /institutional' use allowable in all residential, industrial and Dublic
land use categories. The future land use map currently contains over 10.000 acres of
vacant residential land and 300 acres of vacant industrial, land in which future schools
can be accommodated and are allowable uses.
Objection #4: Transportation Element deficiencies.
CITY RESPONSE: Peak hour trip estimates were obtained by multiplying average daily trip counts
by .093. While this information is equivalent to the figures provided and does not provide any new
meaning or knowledge to the reader, it has been provided because it is a 9J -5 requirement. See
Attachment B for a table of peak hour estimates. Further, Maps K, 2 -1 and 2-4 have been modified
to depict peak hour, as well as average daily counts.
The major trip generators and attractors are already depicted on Maps N and 2 -3. Mass transit
opportunities (public bus system) are provided through Palm Tran, a county agency. Information
from Palm Tran on ridership and headways have been added to the support documents.
Transportation Support Document, Mass Transit, pages 1 -19 - 1 -20:
Fox the present and neat i:uture. mass U=54 opportunities have increased with the expansion
of PalmTrap, thr, County transit service. PalmTran has recently expanded its service from
68 buses seFving 18 routes to 143 buses setvipg 32 routes. Four of those 32 routes will pass
through the City's boundaries (see Man 2 -3). As it can 21Qo be seen on Mao 2 -3. each of
the routes has the Gardens Mall as a destination. as well as other service and business
centers. including the.Gardens Hospital. North County Senior Center. North County
8
Courthouse and Palm Beach Community College. Current ridership is summarizg'i
on Table 2 -9. Headways of 30 and 60 minutes are provided. which makes Palm Tran
a convenient and easily accessible trap$portation alternative. The Citv has adopted
policies to increase vublic awareness of this service and to n_ romote the use of Palm Tran
bv_City residents.

Objection #6: Policy 2.1.1.4 and Policy 9.1.4.1(c) regarding de minimis criteria.
CITY RESPONSE,: This policy language is verbatim from the countywide traffic performance standards which are
applicable in all of Palm Beach County. While it is the criteria that is practiced in the county, the policies will be
eliminated per DCA's recommendation to resolve consistency concerns.
Objection 47: Policy 6.1.5.6, Provision 4b.
CITY RESPONSE: This is a good catch on behalf of DCA. The policy provision has been revised to recognize
differences between the urban and rural area:
4b. Wetlands shall be orotected by a densitv transfer program to upland areas. Where
development occurs within wetlands. the develoo_ er must mitigate the function and
value of those wetlands. Development activities shall occur at a density of no more
than one dwelling unit per five acres in the urban area and one dwelling unit ner
twenty acres in the rural area_ shall be clustered to the least environmentally
sensitive portion of the Site and shall include design considerations to protect the
wetland functions of the rest of the site. Consistent with SFWMD regulations. a
minimum 15 -foot upland buffer composed of native vegetation shall be preserved
or established around wetland areas.
Objection #8: Policy 2.1.1.9 - LOS E.
CITY RESPONSE: It was not the intent to adopt LOS on state roads without FDOT approval. The policy
has been modified to specify that LOS E applies to local (county and city) roads:
Policy 2.1.1.9.: The City Council shall retain the right to adopt LOS "E" for local roads or
specific segments of local roads within.tmnsit oriented developments. where to do, 54 would
be consistent with established planning_ practice in promoting a oedestrian/transit oriented
environment.
Ariy changes to the level of service on county roads is required to be consistent with the countywide traffic
performance standards ordinance. A county process (and potentially an amendment to the County
Comprehensive Plan) must be undertaken to change LOS on a county road.
Objection #9: Objectives 4.D.1.3. and 4.D.1.4 - measurability.
CITY RESPONSE: As the EAR states, the City had conducted exercises to identify future wellfields and
failing domestic wells during the timeframe specified in the original objective. No failing wells and no
additional/future wellfields are known at this time. The City wishes to maintain these objectives as a
14
statement to continue to coordinate with the respective agencies as additional efforts are needed. The
objectives have been modified to supply better measurability:
Objective 4.D.1.3.: By 1992 The City, 7n will continue to coordinate with
Seacoast Utility Authority and the Palm Beach County Department of Environmental
Resource Management. w«< ,a.c ;��. -.Z. cu in the identification of eadstins and future
wellfields and will ; a c ,l,vuJi Rl the City will modify proposed land uses during_ th
Citv's next round of amendments to protect the wellfields.
Objective 4.D.1.4.: By i995 The City will continue to monitor County Health
Department reports regarding �4.c iii, -�� the facilities using on -site domestic wells
that do not comply with state statutes. The City will contact the County Health
Denartment and Seacoast Utilitv Authority on a o_uarteriv basis to inquire about
recently identified failing systems. and `— - _J- -' - - -' If identified, the City will
wiu ►uavc ucvciv�c.0
assist the Health Department and Seacoast Utility Authority implement a plan to provide
approved water supplies to these parcels of non - compliance.
Comment #1: Two Policies enumerated 1.1.1.3.
CITY RESPONSE: Thank you for catching this duplication, the policies are being renumbered. The second
1.1.1.3. which encourages 'linkages' has been renumbered to Policy 1.1.1.9.
Comment #2: Mixed Use - Policy I. 1 .1 .3.
CITY RESPONSE: The policy has been revised to specify that the 60% limitation applies to all residential
uses regardless of density or product type. See revised policy in #2 above.
15
New Changes (Not Previously Reviewed):
Modification to Policy 2.1.2.1. which defines the various types of streets to add flexibility for some
roads to be private (vs. public) in the future.
Policy 2.1.2.1.: The hierarchy of City streets and their functions shall be as follpw$:
City - (example Burns Road) collect and distribute traffic from neighborhood to
neighborhood throughout the City and provide back -up routes to the County thorouehfge
system. may be greater than two lane and are always public. unless designated a priv4te
road pursuant to a PUD or PCD approval prior to the construction of the road. The ggal
i$ tq have a network $uffcient to maintain these roads at no more than four lanes.
Neighborhood Collectors - (example Holly Drive) collect and distribute traffic within a Planned Unit
Development or from limited access subdivisions. will be maintained as low speed. two lane
public roads (unless designated a private road pursuant to a PUD or PCD approval prior
to the construction of the road) suitable for fronting_ residential development. institutional.
or neighborhood commercial development.
Local Roads - (example Buttercup) all other City roads. may be public or private.
2. Modification to Policy 2.1.6.4. which defines the width of parkways to allow flexibility for better
quality greenways, and to recognize the newly designated portion of Hood Road as having a reduced
parkway width due to existing constraints.
Policy 2.1.6.4.7-.3.: The designated rights -of -way for parkways shall be 300400 feet. The "rig t -of-
wav" may be averaged. with City Council approval, to include in the calculation restored
wetlands and upland habitat set aside on the site in order to maintain a native greenwav and
promote "linkages" of the natural environment, including wildlife corridors, Hood Road
between Prosneritv I ±arm$ Road and Central Boulevard shall receive `parkway treatments'
within a 55' corridor.
3. Modification to Policy 2.1.3.1. which prohibits on -street to provide flexibility for future roadways
which may be designed to accommodate on -street parking. On -street parking within mixed use
developments, as well as other projects, may be desired.
Policy 2.13.4.1.: The City shall generally prohibit on- street parking on all arterial. City and
Neighborhood collector roads. On- street parking may be allowed. with specific Citv_ Council
approval and as necessary the app_ roval of the ageneY having jurisdiction over said roadway.
when the design of the roadway in relation to adjacent uses maintains safety performance
standards and efficient traffic flow.
4. Modification to Policy 4.C.1.1.3 which establishes the level of service standard for drainage to allow
flexibility. It has been pointed out that this policy, as previously written, was more restrictive than
SFWMD criteria.
16
Policy 4.C.1.1.3: The level of service standard (LOS) for new development will be to have the
finished floor above the flooding from a 100 -year. 3-dg_y storm with zero discharge, or as
permitted by SFWMD. including* conveyance and retention/detention designed for a 3 day /25 -year
storm for developments greater than or equal to ten (10) acres or for a 1 day /25 -year storm for
developments less than ten (10) acres in size. Additionally, the LOS for new development shall
require that off -site discharges are limited to historic (predevelopment) discharges and
retention/detention requirements shall -be the first 1" of run -off or 2.5 inches x the percent of
impervious area for the proiect. whichever is greater, if wet storage is utilized and 75 % of Wct
detention. if dry storage is utilized «c ► -lsi t,!" If uA y stcj►ugc is uz ,,zed. All of the above shall
be in accordance with SFWMD Rules and Regulations, Basis of Review for Environmental
Resource Permit (ERP) Applications Voluiinc 1 1V1 u►la�b�i�i. 111 auii JIV I-Q61- Vl Jul lab6. TV alGl J.
The LOS for redevelopment shall conform with the requirements for new development. The
minimum LOS for existing development shall be a surface water management system that protects
existing finished floor elevations from flooding during a 1-day/ 100 -year storm. "
Modification to the definition of Mixed Use Development (MXD) and Policy 1.1.1.3. to allow
consideration for mixed use projects which do not have a residential component. The policy has been
modified to provide criteria for Council consideration to use when determining that residential does
not need to be included in a MXD, and intensity thresholds have been provided for non - residential
MXDs. (See Objection #2 above).
6. Introduction of a new policy. Policy 3.1.4.5. to address special housing needs.
Policv 3.1.4,5.: By Januarv. 1999. the City shall undertake an evaluation of nursine homes. assisted
living facilities. and other group homes. and amend the Land Development Regulations to add criteria
which facilitates the development of such uses in the City.
7. Modification to Policy 6.1.5.6. to eliminate the fifth circumstance of item 4a. This circumstance had
been eliminated from the Regional Strategic Policy Plan, which is the source of the policy language.
4a. Wetland habitats are set -aside as preserves. and development is prohibited in
wetlands except under the following circumstances consistent with Treasure Coast
Regional Planning Council Policv 6.6.1.1):
1) Such an activity is necessary to prevent or eliminate a public hazard:
2) Such an activity would provide direct public benefit which would exceed those
lost as a result of the modification-
3) Such an activity proposed for habitats in which the functions and values
currently provided are significantly less than those typically_ associated with such
habitats and cannot be reasonably restored-
4) Due to the unique geometry of the site. it is the unavoidable consequence of
17

Review Aiencv Concerns
The City has tried to respond to the comments forwarded by the review agencies.
Treasure Coast Regional Planning Council:
Land Use Comment 41: The City refers to the concepts and images contained in the Strategic
Regional Policy Plan, and at this time does not wish to establish those details in its Comprehensive
Plan. The SRPP will continue to be utilized as a guidance document for examples of sustainable
development patterns.
Housing Comment #2: The City feels that the private sector is adequately meeting the needs of the
community. Further, the City's plan is consistent with Regional policies to allow alternative housing
types, work with non - profit organizations and provide housing for those with special needs. These
ideals are furthered by Policy 3.1.3.3. - 3.1.3.8., and Objective 3.1.4. and its related policies.
Housing Comment #3: The City feels that the use of the Residential High (RH) and Mixed Use
(MXD) land uses adjacent to future employment/service centers will provide the mix of housing
product and price ranges which Regional Goal 2.2 is calling for.
Housing Comment #4: The City has considered this comment and feels that there is more that could
be done to address special housing needs for the elderly and infirmed. The City is proposing a new
policy (Policy 3.1.4.5.) which prioritizes a study effort to address this issue.
Conservation Comment #1: The City has a policy to protect the Loxahatchee Slough (Policy 6.1.5.3)
which is the headwaters of the Loxahatchee River. We don't oppose adding more specific language
pertaining to ecosystem management, but we would prefer to wait until Palm Beach County and
South Florida Water Management District complete the management plan for the Loxahatchee Slough
ecosite. The majority of this ecosite is within the City limits, and while it relates to the overall River
ecosystem, we would like to place specific criteria of more local concern into the Plan and Land
Development Regulations.
Conservation Comment #2: Policy 6.1.5.6 has been revised to eliminate the fifth circumstance from
item 4a, consistent with the Regional Plan.
Infrastructure Comment #1: Actual use of water and sewer do vary among the different user types,
however, the City and Seacoast do not feel that varying LOS standards will assist in water
conservation. During its 1992 permit application process, SUA demonstrated to SFWMD that water
conservation efforts had been effective. Data shows that there has been a decline in per capita
consumption, and this is believed to be related to conservation efforts. We do not feel that there
would be any material gain to be realized by separating out LOS standards. Water conservation
strategies, however, are targeted to different users to implement the most effective practice for the
use.
19
Department of Environmental Protection:
Comment #1: There are no known `floodplains' within the City. There are some floodprone areas,
but as vacant areas of the City develop and drainage infrastructure is supplied, these areas should be
relieved of flooding potential. The October, 1995 flood was a result of the rainfall/stormwater
exceeding design capacities. Improvements are being made to the system infrastructure which will
decrease the chance of this type of flooding. Unavoidable wetland impacts and mitigation are
addressed in Conservation Element policies.
Comment #2: The adopted EAR identifies that this Objective had been fulfilled. The Objective has
been revised to clarify that the City will continue to monitor for failing wells and septic tanks.
Comment #3: Seacoast Utility Authority does not mandate `hookups' at this time. Since the City
does not run the utility, we `encourage' connections (and require them through the development
review process).
Department of Transportation:
1. Several of the FDOT's objections have been addressed above (peak hour, Beeline Highway
LOS, map series information, etc.)
2. Table 2 -5 is consistent with the MPO's 1998 -2002 TIP. No modifications are needed to the
table.
3. Information regarding hurricane evacuation is contained in the Coastal Management Element,
not the Tramportation Element.
4. The City will forward another copy of the adopted EAR to FDOT District 4.
5. The proposed land use changes were assumed in the data and analysis contained in the support
documents.

Dear Rim,
Per your letter of April 28, 1998 (Attachment I), please find below our responses to the Florida
Department of Community Affairs' (DCA) Objections, Recommendations and Comments (ORC)
report. (The comments made by the review agencies are shown in bold type, while our responses
to the comments are shown in regular type.)
DEPARTNtENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION
"The potable water level of service use for projecting concurrency needs for this proposed land
use redesignation is below the Level of Service being proposed by the City in its EAR based
amendments (125 gpcpd vs. 191 gpcpd, respectively). Since the sanitary sewer needs cannot
vet be met, it is recommended that the redesignation of this parcel await the ability of the
Seacoast Utility Authority to provide appropriate levels of service for both potable water and
sanitary sewer."
Per our discussion on May 11, 1998, please refer to the attached letter from the Seacoast Utility
Authority (Attachment II) stating that they have, the capacity to provide potable water and sanitary
sewer service to the proposed development. Therefore, there is no response necessary to this
comment.

TREASURE COAST RECilONAL PLANNING COUNiCIL
"The City should work closely with the County and local residents to ensure that traffic and
land use compatibility concerns are adequately addressed. The City should work to find an
alternate access plan for the project. Council recognizes that complete neighborhoods should
have a range of housing densities and types."
The petitioner is tulle evaluating all access options and will discuss same with the Cite throu (2h the
site plan review process.
-The City should coordinate with the School Board regarding school capacity and projected
student populations. While the School Board concern in acknowledged, a community is a
dynamic place where changes in the structure and size of the population logically occur over
time. A community can not be expected to have the same number of children at similar ages
so that existing schools can operate at some optimum level. Furthermore, the Eastward Ho!
Initiative anticipates and promotes the kind of redevelopment and infill development which
should lead to an increased population in eastern communities. These communities must work
with the School Board to see that adequate investments are made in eastern schools to facilitate
this initiative. rather than in new schools in suburban locations which serve to promote urban
sprawl and the social problems which result from such sprawl."

RE: Soverel North Land Use Amendment
Dear Hank:
Attached you will find the ORC Report for the Soverel North land use change. You will see that
DCA did not raise any objections, however, there are multiple `comments' raised via the review
agencies. Please prepare a response to each of these comments.
Staff has made the decision to combine 98 -1 with 98 -IER. The Soverel North land use change will
be adopted as part of the EAR -based amendments. We anticipate workshopping the amendments
with the Council in June and adopting in July. The annexation petition will be considered
concurrently.
Please provide the responses to the ORC Report comments by May 151h.
Ed Tombari and I are available to discuss possible responses if you need our assistance.
S' cerely,

SECTION 3
NEED FOR IMPROVEMENTS
This Action Plan was prepared to recommend the improvements necessary to meet the policies,
standards and criteria of the FIRS. The needs identified herein are, therefore, not alternative
specific. Each of the alternatives proposed will be developed to satisfy the functional criteria and
standards of the FIRS.
FIHS standards require that a determination be made of the total length of a facility that can not be
brought up to FIHS standards. A maximum of five percent of the route length in rural areas and 20
percent of the route length in urban areas can be exempted from FIHS standards if justified and
approved by the District Director of Planning and Programming and the State Transportation
Planner. The Facility Enhancement Element will identify the improvements required to meet these
standards, policies and criteria. A plan to phase the implementation of these improvement strategies
is presented in the Facility Operations and Preservation Element.
The following discusses the significant FIHS standards, policies and criteria used that were
identified in this Action Plan.
LEVEL OF SERVICE
The FIRS is required to be upgraded and managed to operate within a 20 -year horizon at minimum
level of service (LOS) standards. LOS is a qualitative measure of traffic operational performance.
These performance measures are based on road users' perceptions of roadway quality of flow. LOS
is represented by the letters `A' through `F' with `A' representing the most favorable conditions of
traffic flow. LOS `F' represents the least favorable conditions of traffic flow. These qualitative
descriptions are based on the estimation or direct measurement of specific traffic operational
performance measures, such as density, speed and volume, depending on the functional use of the
facility. A minimum LOS of `B' is required for rural areas and an LOS of `C' is required for
3 -1
transitioning urbanized areas, urban areas, and urbanized areas with populations less than 500,000.
An LOS of `D' is permitted in areas within a urbanized area with population greater than 500,000.
In future years, without improvement the operating conditions will decline (see Table 3 -1).
Forecasts of future travel demand within the corridor were developed according to the following
procedures:
1. For the purpose of this study, the SR 710 corridor was broken into eleven (11) sections as
indicated in Table 3 -1.
2. The newly developed interim Greater Treasure Coast Regional Planning Model
(GRTCRPM) was used to establish a basis for year 2020 traffic demand for each section.
3. The projected year 2020 traffic demand and the historical counts from 1983 to 1994 were
used to develop the design year traffic by regression analysis. The regression formulas were
then used to project AADTs for the opening year, interim years and design year.
4. A review of the 2020 model indicated that the projected demands between PGA Boulevard
and Blue Heron Boulevard were over reported due to an insufficient arterial network in the
northwest area of Palm Beach County. As such, a 3.53 - percent annual compound growth
rate was developed based on the projected population in the area. The average of traffic
demand forecasts based on the population growth and the regression model growth rates was
used for analysis of sections of SR 710 from Blue Heron Boulevard to PGA Boulevard and
from PGA Boulevard to Pratt Whitney Road.
5. The traffic demands for the sections between Australian Avenue and US 1 were based on the
projections recently completed for the Skypass Project (State Job No.: 93020 -1510, W.P.I.
No.: 4118713). The volumes developed for the Skypass Project include a realignrnent of SR
710 between Dixie Highway and US 1 and development of a one -way pair to the Port of
Palm Beach.
3 -2
L
j ::6. A test was conducted with the GTCRPM to estimate the impacts of adding interchanges of
SR 710 and 45th Street Extension with Florida's Turnpike. The model showed a significant
traffic increase along SR710 between the Turnpike and Blue Heron Boulevard. Since both
interchanges are elements of the Palm Beach County Long -Range Transportation Plan, the
influence of the construction of these interchanges were considered in the forecasts.
The forecasts of future demand traffic for the corridor are provided in Table 34, the LOS criteria
used from the 1995 FDOT LOS Manual are provided in Table 3 -2 and the resulting levels of service
are provided in Table 3 -3. Only two of the 12 corridor segments will continue to provide an
j adequate level of service through the year 2020.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Kim Glas- Castro
FROM: Dodi Glas
DATE: June 11, 1998
SUBJECT: Suggested Language Pursuant to Our Discussions
There were three items we agreed required further review- MYD, mining and the 250 minimum
acreage. I have also provided suggested language that I believe addresses your comments and some
commentVIanguage that may assist in DCA's review.
I. MXV
I undestand that the MXD will c ntirnu to require at least 2 uses consistent with DCA requirements.
Has is additional language refinemem for the Non- Residential Criteria 4. that we discussed.
SUGGEST as underlined
4. Due to size or configuration of the parcel, the ability to provide an economically
mss., sustainable, integrated residential component that functions to enhance and
comnlement the other MXD uses is limited.
I also understand that each use in the Non - Residential MXD Intensity Measures table will be
identified individually to make it clear to DCA what applies to each use. Also this will agow the
industrial lot coverage to be addressed separately and thus to be consistent with current policy that
a8ow3 Wle lot coverage. I think that your idea of using the existing categories is a very good one
and hdps to maintain consistency.
Also, it would seem necessary to add the following language to the last sentence before the last
paragraph numbered 4. This would avoid any possible inconsistency finding by DCA on having the
lot coverages in the MXD section and under Future Land Use categories.
SUGGEST
Land uses are defined as set forth in the Future Land Use Element with maximum lot
coverages Wn¢ defined above.

BACKGROUND:
The subject site is approximately 18.82 acres. The master plan for the Trinity United Methodist
church was approved by Ordinance 2, 1992 and subsequently amended by Resolution 6, 1993
and Resolution 143, 1994. The approval was for 265,000 square feet of religious facility including
a 2,400 seat sanctuary, a fellowship hall, day care and office space. The site is zoned as
Mayor and City Council
Petition SP -97 -10 & CU -98 -01
Residential Low Density -3 (RL -3) with a conditional use approval
Ordinance 2, 1992 granted rezoning, conditional use and master plan approval to the subject site.
The original traffic report required the project to achieve build out by the year 2000. Ordinance
2,1992 was amended by Resolution 6, 1993 providing for a reduction of the storage area, and
subsequently amended by Resolution 143, 1994 to construct a portion of parking lot and a change
to the phasing plan.
The petitioner is requesting to modify the shape of the driveway adjacent to the Chapel. The
petitioner is also proposing to eliminate a single story building and add a Memorial Garden, a
Multi- purpose building a Main Sign.
The request is also for an amendment to the approved phasing plan and a seven -year time
extension. Condition 10 of Ordinance 2, 1992 addresses the build -out date by incorporating the
conditions and agreements contained in a letter dated February 4, 1992 from Oliver Glidden &
Partners to Bristol Ellington which indicates a recognition of the requirement to "achieve build out
by the year 2000." The petitioner is seeking to extend the build out date until the year 2007. City
Attorney Carole Post has determined that the time extension request could be reviewed as part
of this petition by amending the development order. Ms. Post has further indicated that this is an
opportunity for the City to reexamine the entire scope of the project, and if necessary, modify the
original conditions or impose new ones
At its June 9, 1998, the Planning and Zoning Commission voted 4 -2 for the Conditional Use and
6 -0 for the amendment to the site plan to recommend approval of petition SP -97 -10 & CU -98-01
with the following conditions:
Prior to the issuance of first Building Permit, the applicant shall submit, for City Engineer
review and approval, a Drainage Plan for Phase 5 parking lot improvements.
2. Prior to the issuance of first Building Permit, the Handicap Parking Detail shall be revised
to show an overall length of 18' -6 ", the wheel stop dimension shall be revised from 2' -0"
to 2' -6" and the sidewalk width shall be revised from 4' to 5.
3. Prior to the issuance of first Building Permit, a stop sign and stop bar shall be added to
the phase 5 one -way drive aisle intersecting the north -south internal drive aisle.
Please note that the two dissenting members for the Conditional Use petition felt that the
requested length of time extension was too long.
It should also be noted that with this petition, the applicant had originally requested to add 3,500
square feet to the facility. At its July 16, 1998 meeting, the City Council reviewed this petition and
recommended that the petitioner withdraw the request for the additional 3,500 square feet. The
petitioner has revised the master plan and eliminated the 3,500 square feet addition.

Parking
The petitioner has met the minimum requirement of 122 spaces. The petitioner is
requesting a deviation from the number of loading zones requirement. The petitioner is
proposing one (1) space while the code requires three (3). Staff is supporting the reduction
of loading spaces to below code standards due to the fact that the hotel will not include a
full service restaurant, lounge or convention room facilities. The petitioner has indicated
to staff that loading vehicles will consist primarily of box type trucks which will make a
maximum of one delivery a week for mostly laundry and toiletry item.
Landscaping
The petitioner is proposing 4,860 points of landscaping. The minimum requirement for this
site is 3,630 points. The Site Plan and Appearance Review Committee requested
additional landscaping and berming to screen the parking area. The petitioner has revised
the landscape plan accordingly.
Traffic
Traffic concurrency has been met through the Northcorp Planned Community District
approval.
Drainage
City Engineer Tammy Jacobs has placed a condition on approval based on the petitioner
demonstrating that the surface water management plan shall be designed in accordance
with Northcorp Drainage Deficit Solution and Northcorp Undeveloped Lot Development
Standards.
Staff Comments
Planning and Zoning
The petitioner has indicated that a remaining eastern portion (44.7 feet wide) of Lot 1 will
not be purchased for this development. Instead it will be utilized for a 60 foot right -of -way
running north from RCA Boulevard to provide access to the MacArthur Foundation
properties to the north. The petitioner has provided a 15 foot landscape buffer along the
eastern property boundary in anticipation of the proposed right -of -way, consistent with the
comprehensive plan. In addition, staff is requesting that the future right -of -way along the
eastern boundary of Parcel 1 also include the streetscaping program as approved by
Agenda Cover Memorandum
Petition SP -98 -03
Page 4
August 6, 1998
Resolution 65, 1992. This action would maintain consistency with the rest of the roadways
within the Northcorp PCD.
Resolution 65, 1992 approved a streetscaping program for Northcorp, including the portion
of RCA Boulevard within the Northcorp PCD. The approved program includes design
criteria for landscaping, sidewalks and lighting. Staff is requesting that this program be
fully implemented along RCA Boulevard which would include filling the drainage swale
along the north side of RCA Boulevard, installing a sidewalks within the RCA
Boulevard/State Access Road boundary, and replacing the existing overhead utility poles
and lighting with the lighting program approved as part of Resolution 65, 1992.
City Engineer
The petitioner has provided the 100 foot stacking distances requested by the City
Engineer. In order to provide for both the required stacking distance and the required
parking on -site, the petitioner was forced to eliminate two of the three loading zones
required by the City's LDRs. The petitioner has requested a waiver from the code
requirement to allow for just one loading space. Staff supports this waiver request.
Assistant City Engineer Tammy Jacobs has reviewed the revised site plan and has noted
that the following conditions of approval are needed to address outstanding issues:
(1) The 8.5 "X11" FDOT standard guardrail detail submitted by the petitioner shall be
added to the construction detail sheet prior to Construction Plan approval.
(2) As a condition of construction plan approval, the applicant will need to provide a
letter of authorization from the Seacoast Utilities Authority allowing landscaping and
pavement within the existing 12 foot and 22 foot utility easements.
(3) As a condition of construction plan approval, the surface water management plan
shall be designed in accordance with Northcorp Drainage Deficit Solution and
Northcorp Undeveloped Lot Development Standards.
(4) Prior to construction plan approval, the applicant shall provide storm water quantity
and quality calculations. The applicant will also need to show that storm water
runoff from the buildings roof is pre- treated prior to being discharged off -site.
Seacoast Utilities
Will comment on detailed water and sewer plans as part of the construction plan review.

BACKGROUND:
The Ballenlsles Planned Community District was originally approved by Ordinance 8, 1989. The
subject parcel is designated as low density and the proposed plan for 12 custom single family home
lots is within the allowable density indicated on the Master Plan. The parcel, with 1.17 dwelling
units per acre, is designated Residential Low (RL). The master plan allows a maximum of 4
dwelling units per acre under RL.
The subject property is 8.55 acres and is located within Ballenlsles Planned Community District on
Fairwinds Avenue, south of where Fairwinds Avenue ends at the entrance to Parcel 10.
The site is surrounded by golf on the north and east, water and Ballenlsles Parcel 9 to the south;
and Parcel 8B to the west.
The project will be developed in a single phase with one and two story units with a minimum lot
width of 100 feet and a minimum lot depth of 175 feet. The applicant has indicated that details for
the project entrance signs as well as the entry features will be submitted at a later date for the City
Council's review and approval.
Procedure: This is a request for site plan approval within a PCD. Because the proposed site is
within Ballenlsles PCD, the request is considered a major site plan. The site plan request is
reviewed by the Development Review Committee, who forwards comments and recommendations
to the Site Plan and Appearance Review Committee. Acting in an advisory role, the Committee
makes a recommendation on the proposed request to the City Council. The City Council reviews
the request for site plan approval for consideration of approval, approval with conditions, or denial.
Access: Access to the site will be from Fairwinds Avenue. The roadway surface will be paved
with speciality pavers, which will add visually to the proposed development.
Code Compliance: The underlying land use designation for Parcel 8A is Residential Low, which
has specific requirements for setbacks and lot coverage. Planned Community Developments are
given flexibility with these requirements to provide incentives for the design of more open space.
Staff does not have any objections to the proposed deviations from the code. Previous parcels in
Ballenlsles have been approved with less than the required setbacks (see Table 1).
Departmental Comments: Building Official Jack Hanson and Fire Marshal Scott Fetterman have
reviewed the plans and have no concerns. Seacoast Utility Authority has no concerns at this time.
The Police Department has provided a list of safety guidelines which they would like forwarded to
the builders. They plan to conduct inspections during construction.
City Forester Mark Hendrickson has reviewed the project and has recommended approval since
the petitioner has responded to his concerns. They have provided more landscaping to the
common area adjacent to the cul -de -sac.
Assistant City Engineer Tammy Jacobs has also reviewed the project and has no engineering
concerns.
At its June 23, 1998 meeting, the Site Plan and Appearance Review Committee voted unanimously
to recommend approval of petition SP- 98 -15.

BACKGROUND:
This is a request for concurrent processing of a site plan application and a Planned
Community District rezoning application for the Golf Digest PCD and Golf Campus site
plan. Resolution 80, 1997 provided for the concurrent processing of the Golf Digest PCD
rezoning application and the Golf Digest Campus site plan. Section 5 of the resolution
provided for a one year time period for the processing of the concurrent application. Due
to the fact that this one year period has expired (7/17/98), staff is recommending the
approval of Resolution 83, 1998 to allow for the completion of the concurrent applications
processing. Both the PCD rezoning and site plan applications have been recommended
to the City Council for approval by the Planning and Zoning Commission and the Site Plan
and Appearance Review Committee.
Staff has determined that the petition meets all the criteria set forth in the concurrent
petitions ordinance (Ordinance 7, 1998) based on the following:
(1) The Planned Community District rezoning application proposes a land use pattern
which is consistent with the Comprehensive Land Use Plan.
(2) The proposed Planned Community District and Golf Campus site plan is consistent
with the land uses designated in the "Our Vision" strategic plan.
(3) Staff finds that the proposed Golf Digest Planned Community District conditionally
meets the Level of Services standards.
Based on this analysis, the Growth Management Director recommends approval of a
concurrent processing agreement for the Golf Digest PCD rezoning application and the
Golf Campus site plan petitions.

Honorable Joseph R. Russo, Mayor
City of Palm Beach Gardens

Palm Beach Gardens, FL 33418
Re: Lone Pine - Site Plan Approval
Dear Mayor Russo:
As you may recall, we presented a site plan to the City Commission on May 21,
1998 which evoked a considerable amount of discussion regarding the minimum
lot size. That plan proposed 65 lots with minimum dimensions of 46'x 90' and a
minimum of 4,140 square feet The consensus seemed to be that the lots
needed to be larger, and there was some sentiment that the width should be
increased to a minimum of 50 feet.
We have revisited the site plan and although we have not increased the lot width
to 50 feet, we have made a number of Improvements that have produced a
superior plan. A copy of the currently proposed site plan is attached for your
review. Following is a summary list of the various changes we have made:
9 Reduced the number of lots from 65 to 62.
Increased the minimum lot size from 46' x 90' (4,140 S.F.) to 46' x 100'
(4,600 S.F.).
e Eliminated all back to back lots, the previous plan had 8.
• Reduced back to side lots from 7 to 6 (keeping in mind that 3 of these
remaining lots are comer lots with minimum widths of 61').
• Added a tot lot.
• Increased the entry right of way to a straight 50' section, allowing for addition
of swale street trees.
Beyond these specific changes, we believe that with the elimination of the loop
road at the west end of the site, the overall site plan has been substantially

improved and that it will be more attractive to potential purchasers. We now
have a plan where practically every lot backs up to a lake, 5raer trelt, preserve
or buffer of score kind, a configuration similar to what is common among pods in
larger master planned communities.
Another point we would like to make with respect to the Commiss ;on's desire to
increase the lot width to 5C fee *, is that it would result in a further decrease in the
number of Icts which, of course, means that the remaining k;ts :come more
expensve and consequently less affordable. This project is in an area
surrounded by modest homes, a school and a church. We have included several
photographs of the surrounding residences to give you an idea cf the character
of the neighborhood. Our intent is to offer a product that will fit comfortably in the
neighborhood and will, to the benefit of the surrounding property owners, support
or even increase their property values.
TM
We are more than willing to discuss any specific concerns you have that may not
have been addressed in this plan and would like to do so prior to the First.
Reading so that we can respond accordingly,

BACKGROUND:
Originally, staff received a request from the operators of the golf courses at PGA National
and Ballenisles country clubs to allow for golf course equipment to be operated at an
earlier time than what is currently permitted by City Code.
This request prompted staff to re- examine all the provisions of the Code regarding the
restriction of noise within the City. This re- examination of the Code has resulted in the
proposed attached revisions to the City Code.
In addition to updating and clarifying the language of the City's current noise restrictions,
the proposed amendment would allow golf course maintenance equipment to operate from
Page 2
6 a.m. to 6 p.m., permit construction equipment to be operated within a residential district
beginning at 7 a.m., and allow sanitation trucks to be operated in the City from 6 a.m. to
6 p.m.
Regarding the golf course maintenance equipment, the operators of PGA National and
Ballenlsles golf courses have indicated that golf course maintenance is needed to occur
in the early morning hours prior to tee times in order to avoid conflicts with golfers. Staff
recognizes the need for the morning maintenance of the golf course and is proposing to
limit lawnmowers and golf maintenance equipment associated with the operation of a golf
course to operation from 6 p.m. to 6 a.m.
Regarding construction activities, the traditional starting time for construction has been
and continues to be between 7:00 a.m. and 7:30 a.m. This starting time allows
construction workers to begin work before the weather becomes too hot. It also allows
construction workers time at the end of the day to run errands as many workers stay on
the job site for the duration of the day.
Staff also surveyed the practices of other local governments regarding the starting time for
construction activities in residential areas. The responses are as follows:
TIMES CONSTRUCTION IS PROHIBITED IN RESIDENTIAL ZONES
Palm Beach County = 10 p.m. to 7 a.m. (Mon. thru Sat.)
All Day /Night on Sunday
City of West Palm Beach = 8 p.m. to 7 a.m. (Mon. thru Sun.)
*can obtain a waiver from the City Manager
City of Jupiter = 8 p.m. to 6 a.m. (Mon. thru Fri.)
All Day /Night on Sat & Sun
Staff would recommend that the City's noise ordinance amendment continue to reflect the
standard in the construction industry of the 7 a.m. construction starting time.
The review of the draft ordinance by the Public Works Department prompted the addition
of allowing sanitation trucks to operate within the City between the hours of 6 a.m. to 6
p.m. This is consistent with the City's agreement with its designated solid waste disposal
provider.

FROM: Dennis J. O'Rourke, Assistant Chief of Police
DATE: July 27, 1998
SUBJECT: Training Center Assessment
Per your direction, I have enclosed a memorandum authored by Training Sergeant Sharon,
outlining the center's day to day usage.
I have listed below the total number of days each department has utilized the center during
this period. Based upon the Weiss Foundation's proposal that we enter into an annual
lease at $6.00 per square foot, the 2,400 square feet presently utilized will cost the city
$14,400.00 annually.
I recommend that each department fund a portion of the total lease amount proportionate
to their individual usage. Based upon my calculations, the following dollar amounts should
be assigned each department.
I have researched alternate training locations until our new facility is completed, with
negative results.
-It is my opinion that the costs associated in remaining at the Weiss Foundation Training
Facility are negligible when compared to other options, and I recommend approval as
outlined.
Please contact me if you have any questions concerning this matter.

From: Sgt C. K. Sharon / Training
Subject : Training Center
Date : July 24, 1998
Pursuant to our conversation yesterday, I believe that we agree the training facility at the
Weiss School has proven itself to be a necessity for day to day operations. The entire city utilizes
the space for training functions, meetings, employee interviews, promotional exams, workdwps,
citizen police academies, and also provides a secure command center when faced with weather
related disasters. During construction this facility has become even more important as an off site
location for activities with adequate parking facilities. Following is the activity schedule at the
center for the last two fiscal years.

As you can see, the training center is usually booked on a daily basis by one department or
another. There is no where else in the City that this amount of activity could take place. To lose
this building would have a definite impact on the amount of and quality of training made available
to not just our department, but every department in the City. Our City has maintained a higher
standard of training than most, due not only to the expertise of the personnel, but the physical
resource the center provides. To sacrifice this facility because of a reasonable capital expenditure
could cost much more in potential litigation possibilitim.

C Odt,
FROM: Assistant Chief O'Rourke
DATE: July 13, 1998
SUBJECT: Weiss Center Training Facility
On Thursday, July 9, 1998, 1 spoke with Dana Nicholas, Vice P_ resident of Weiss
Research, concerning our expired lease for the training center.
Ms. Nicholas advised that we may continue to utilize the training facility at a cost of $6.00
per square foot contingent upon the city replacing an air conditioning unit as discussed
during our previous meeting with her. Therefore, the 2,400 square feet presently utilized
will cost the city $14,400.00 annually.
Ms. Nicholas advised me that the aforementioned terms and conditions are firm, and not
subject to additional negotiations. Additionally, Ms. Nicholas has requested a decision
from us expeditiously. I advised Ms. Nicholas that I would forward the proposal to the city
manager's office for resolution.

RE: Lease With Palm Beach Gardens
Dear Chief Fitzgerald,
a
A couple of months ago, the President of Weiss Research, Martin Weiss, met with Bobbi
Herakovich regarding the Police Training Center lease. We were glad to provide you with
the space as our donation to the city. However, the original lease expired in September
1997.
Unfortunately, we were unable to locate the initial lease to determine the exact expiration
date, and missed out on the 1997/1998 budget year. However, Ms. Herakovich did
indicate that your 1998/1999 budget would commence in October 1998, and the yearly
rent should be included in that budget.
We would like to continue to contribute to the city by offering a rate that is far below
market. Mr. Weiss and Ms. Herakovich discussed a fee of $6.00 per square foot for the
2,400 square feet. That is less than half the price of the going market rate of
approximately $15.00 per square foot. However, we will also have to build -in the missing
rent from 1997/1998 over the next three years, which would result in $8.00 per square
foot through the year 2000.
'lease give me a call at 627 -3300 ext.108 and we can schedule a meeting to discuss this
further. If you do not wish to renew the lease, please let us know as soon as possible so
that we can take advantage of the increasing demand for space in this area.
Sincerely,
Dana Nicholas

any rent check not honored by Lessee's bank Late charges for late payment of rent and service charges
for dishonored or returned checks of Lessee shall be considered as additional rent, and Lessee's failure

destroyed other than by the wrongful or negligent acts of Lessee, so that the enjoyment thereof is
substantially impaired and the premises cannot be used for residential purposes, then Lessee may
terminate this Lease by written notice to Lessor and Lessee shall thereupon immediately vacate and

further agrees that should an authorized air conditioning repairman or dealer state that any damage to
the air conditioning machinery occurred because of the failure to promptly change or clean the air

to properly change or clean such filter or filters and that the Lessee, therefore, is responsible for any
damage to said air conditioning system.

conditioning is used in the Leased Premises, it is possible for mildew to grow and affect the Leased
Premises and property therein. The decision to use or not use air conditioning and the extent of same
rests with Lessee, however, Lessee agrees that Lessor shall not have any liability or responsibility
whatsoever for any damage, loss, claim or court expense arising out of or resulting from mildew in the
Leased Premises. Accordingly, Lessee hereby, for separate and adequate consideration, releases Lessor
and its agents, employees, successors and assigns, from and against any and all claims arising out of or
relating to mildew or any similar situation with respect to the Leased Premises.

payment of rent, additional rent or if Lessee shall violate any of the covenants of this Lease to be kept
and performed by Lessee or if he should violate any of the rules or regulations and fail to remedy the
same after having received notice thereof from Lessor, the Lessee shall become a tenant at sufferance

costs and attorney's fees, and Lessee shall be assessed the expense of reletting the Leased Premises in
an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the total amount of rent. In the event Lessee is evicted by suit
at law, Lessee agrees to pay Lessor all costs of such suit, including reasonable attorney's fee for such
eviction and appellate proceedings, if any, and the parties agree that the venue for any such legal action
shall be exclusively in Palm Beach County, Florida. This remedy shall not be deemed to constitute a
waiver of any other remedy available to Lessor hereunder or at law or in equity.
17 - HOLDING OVER BY LESSEE. In the event that Lessee holds over and continues possession
of the Leased Premises, or any part thereof after the expiration or earlier termination of the Term of this
Lease without the permission of Lessor, then Lessor may charge Lessee double the amount of rent for
the Leased Premises, or any part thereot during the hold -over period and Lessee shall be. deemed to be
a tenant at sufferance.

Lease is and shall be subordinate to the interest of any present or future mortgagees holding a mortgage
or other lien on all or any portion of the fee interest of the real property of which the Leased Premises
are a part. This subordination is intended to be fully self - operating, without the need for Lessee to
execute any additional documents whatsoever. However, Lessee agrees to promptly execute any and
all documents requested by Lessor from time to time to evidence and confirm such subordination, and
Lessee is hereby deemed to have irrevocably appointed Lessor, as Lessee's attorney -in -fact, for the
purpose of executing any such documents, which appointment shall be deemed to be irrevocable during
the Term of this Lease and any extensions or renewal thereof.

health risks to persons who are exposed to it over time. Levels of radon that exceed Federal and State
guidelines have been found in buildings in Florida. Additional information regarding radon and radon

between the parties with respect to this subject matter, and supersedes all other negotiations,

Interoffice Memorandum
TO: Bobbie Herakovich, City Manager
-'0 *001L
FROM: Dennis J. O'Rourke, Assistant Chief of Police
DATE: July 24, 1998
SUBJECT: Truancy Interdiction Program
On Thursday, July 23, 1998, 1 met with: Ar. Seymour Fine regarding a lease agreement at
4279 Lilac Street, per your direction.
Mr. Fine has agreed to waive the $1,800.00 security deposit, however would not agree to
lower the $725.00 per month rental charge. Mr. Fine's position is that we are being
charged $7.25 per square foot plus utilities. In return, Mr. Fine absorbs the cost of taxes,
insurance, landscaping and all maintenance on appliances such as air conditioning. I
countered, offering that the city would supply landscaping and maintenance, however he
advised that he retains salaried personnel for such services. He further stated that based
upon the request to utilize the residence by Vice Mayor Lauren Furtado, he has kept the
property off the market for over a month.
In summary, Mr. Fine indicated to me that he has no objection to waiving the security cost,
but remains firm on the monthly rental charges which will amount to $8,700.00 annually,
plus utilities. I estimate that utilities should amount to approximately $1,560.00 annually,
utilizing $100.00 per month for electric, and $30.00 per month for water.
Mr. Jim Griffin of The John Bills Corporation advised that while no vacant space is
currently available at the North Corp facility, the price per square foot would be
approximately $15.00. The Stiles project on PGA Boulevard would cost approximately
$28.00 per square foot for similar office space.
am prepared to fund the entire amount, $10,260.00, utilizing account #1030 -521 -4960,
Police Reserves. As you are aware, in order to satisfy the requirements of the T. 1. P. grant,
the city is responsible for providing a location as well as matching funds in the amount of
$4,830.20, or 20 %* I have enclosed a letter from Commander Carr to Holly Luzader,
outlining the grant parameters.
Memo to B. Herakovich
7/27/98
Pg. 2
In addition to utilizing the duplex rental to facilitate the Truancy Interdiction Program, the
location will also serve as a field office. I have enclosed a survey of residents on Lilac
Street who overwhelmingly support our presence in order to curtail increasing juvenile
crime in the area. As such, the cost of this endeavor will provide two valuable services to
our community, and the police department strongly recommends approval of our request.
As an aside, we are presently exploring another location within the city that may be
suitable as a truancy centertfield office. The store front space is located at 4231 Northlake
Blvd., formerly Puppy Purr -fect Pet Grooming. The owner has voiced his desire for us to
occupy the space, rent free. I am presently obtaining specific details such as square
footage, utility costs if any, etc; and should have a final report early next week. I just
learned of this prospect earlier today, hence the lack of details.
Please contact me if you have any additional questions concerning this matter.

The Palm Beach Gardens Police Department is looking into establishing a field office in
one of the duplexes along Lilac Street. This office will be used for the Truancy
Interdiction Program (TIPS) and will also be available for use by patrol officers. The
benefit to the residents in this area will be immeasurable in that there will be a constant
monitoring of truancy activity throughout the day and there will be a police presence at
various times of the day and night. Please sign this petition acknowledging your support
for the establishment of a field office.
