presentation and reported that the handout included issues that had been raised by the North
County Intergovernmental Committee. Mayor Jablin reported the forbearance agreement had
reduced densities, which should affect traffic. It was reported the developers had agreed to
fund a traffic study. Mayor Jablin recommended holding a workshop on traffic performance
standards. County Commissioner Karen Marcus explained the County Commission was
trying to fix the law that did the double counting and double giving away of trips so that
capacity would not run out and the last projects to come in could still be built, and that Palm
Beach Gardens was a part of the process because they had developers who could not build.
Councilmember Russo requested the City hire the person to do the traffic study. Discussion
ensued. John Gary explained that the study would be done as if all roads and all
development on PGA Boulevard were finished, and after the final numbers were known an
agreement could be worked out with the county and Commissioner Marcus. Councillember
Russo wanted to know which projects would fail. Commissioner Marcus suggested Jupiter
might share information from their traffic study with the city since this was not just a Palm
Beach Gardens issue. The City Manager was directed to schedule a workshop when all
councilmembers could attend. The development community through John Gary was
requested to proceed with the study.

ITEMS FOR COUNCIL ACTION:
Vice Mayor Sabatello reported receipt of a memo from Councilmember Delgado regarding
Re: Source group, and expressed his opinion that the lobbyist should go through the City
Manager, who would separate issues that were administrative and those that were policy, and
then the City Manager would advise the City Council on the other legislative matters. All
those City Council members present agreed the lobbyist should report directly to the City
Manager, and he would then bring reports to the City Council on a timely basis on any
matters in which he needed to involve the Council. The City Manager noted that some items
required immediate action. The Council granted that flexibility.
Councilmember Russo reported he received a memo from Councilmember Delgado
regarding the reinstatement of Mr. Buckley, and stated the issue to him had not been the
situation but how it was handled; and that no one person should have made the decision, but
the entire City Council should have decided whether or not Mr. Buckley should have been
removed. Councilmember Russo indicated that in the past, liaisons to Boards were there as
communicators from the Boards to the Council, and not to handle matters or make decisions.
Mayor Jablin agreed. Vice Mayor Sabatello suggested the City Manager be the first contact
in such situations. Consensus was to hold a workshop regarding the role of liaisons. The
City Manager reported staffwas working on ideas in support of the Council/Manager form of
government and alternative ways of achieving goals, regarding which they would be ready to
report to the Council in approximately one month.
ITEMS FOR DISCUSSION:
Conceptual Study and Design For MacArthur Boulevard Traffic Calming and Roadway
Improvements. This item was pulled to be discussed at the beginning of the next meeting.

Waiver Justification
The proposed development plan for Parcel
Planned Community District regulations.
11 is consistent "with the intent of the
The City’s Comprehensive Plan contains several objectives that strive to preserve open
space and natural vegetative systems, contain urban sprawl, and conserve natural
resources. The waivers proposed by the applicant, including front, rear and side
setback, as well as lot coverage, allow for clustering of urbanized areas within smaller
locations. The balance of the land may then be preserved as natural open space,
furthering the goals of the comprehensive plan. The requested waivers allow the
applicant to provide the City with natural open space above and beyond the amount of
open space that would be provided by allowing for development based on the
requirements set forth by the development standards for Residential Low RL-3.
The Code requires 20% (461 acres) of the PCD to be preserved as Community Serving
Open Space. The Mirasol PCD provides for over 66% (1530 acres) of the PCD
Community Serving Open Space, 877.4 acres of which is restored natural upland and
wetland ecosystems. The gross density of the Mirasol PCD is .93 dwelling units per

acre. In comparison, PGA National PCD, has 46% open space with a gross density of
2.24 dwelling units per acre and Ballenlsles has 52% open space with a gross density
of 1.8 dwelling units per acre.
The design of this project is consistent with the intent and purpose of the Planned
Community District regulations, and is consistent with the goals and objectives in the
comprehensive plan. For these reasons, staff supports and recommends approval of
the requested waivers.
To date, the Planning and Zoning Commission has recommended approval for six
residential parcels (Parcels 1, 4, 8, 9, 10 & 12) that are to be custom single-family
homes with similar lot widths, lot coverage and setbacks to those proposed on Parcel
11.
PLANNING AND ZONING RECOMMENDATION
At its May 9, 2002 meeting, the Planning and Zoning Commission reviewed this
application and recommended approval by a vote of 6-1.

Ordinance 20, 2002
Meeting Date: June 20, 2002
Date Prepared: May 31, 2002
Petition MISC02-01
BACKGROUND
San Michele is an approved 64.47-acre single-family custom home Planned Unit
Development (PUD), with 90 lots that typically range in width from 75 feet to 90 feet. The
PUD is located at the northwest corner of the intersection of Central Boulevard and Hood
Road, and was approved by the City Council on June 1, 2000, with the adoption of
Ordinance 4, 2000. Subsequent to the original approval, the City Council has approved the
project clubhouse, signage, and gatehouse plans. This request includes modifications to
the Master Site Plan to accommodate changes to drainage easements and lake
configurations, which resulted from the final requirements of Northern Palm Beach County
Improvement District’s (Northern) Unit 2 drainage plans, details of the temporary sales
center, and a request for modification of side setbacks for selected lots. Development of
the common areas will remain the responsibility of the master developer, Forest Lake
Associates. Development of the 75-foot wide lots (lots 1 through 49) will be by San
Michele-Palm Beach Limited Partnership (Sterling Communities), and development of the
90-foot wide lots (lots 50 through 90) will be by Gordon Homes.
LAND USE & ZONING
The future land-use designation for this property is Residential Low (RL). The site is zoned
Residential Low Density - 3 (RL-3), with a Planned Unit Development (PUD) overlay.
CONCURRENCY
The site is vested in terms of concurrency.
PROJECT DETAILS
This request for a PUD amendment incorporates an increase in width and location
adjustments for several drainage easements as well as the re-configuration of the lakes
and canals located south of the entrance roadway. These modifications are required to
accommodate the ultimate design criteria approved as part of Northern’s Unit 2 drainage
plan approvals. As a result of the increase in width of the drainage easements, the
applicant is requesting consideration of side setback waivers for those lots affected by the
increased width of the easements (lots 66, 67, 72, 73, 77, 78, 85, and 86). The Master
Plan has also been amended to include the location of the sales center and the models.
Landscaping/Screeninq
Because of a reduction in the available landscape space, and the desire to provide
appropriate screening, the applicant would also like to extend the approved eight-foot wall

and make it part of the buffer system east of the new lake to screen the homes west of the
lake. This buffer section is proposed to include plant material, which blends the proposed
entrance to the north with the native buffer to the south. The wall will be screened with the
use of multiple layears of plant material including Sable Palms, Ligustrum Trees, Wax
Myrtle, Buttonwoods, Cocoplum, grasses and groundcovers. The inside of the wall will
also be planted with palms and grasses.
Temporary Sales Trailer
The applicant is proposing a temporary sales trailer for a time not to exceed five years, or
until spring 2007. The proposed trailer contains 2,028 square feet, and requires seven
parking spaces. Six parking spaces are provided at the adjacent model homes, with the
handicap parking provided on the same lot as the sales center. Extra parking will also be
available at the clubhouse, although this parking has not been used to meet the required
parking for the sales center.
Staff is currently working On amending the Code to limit the time period for all trailers. As a
condition of approval, the applicant will be required to adhere to all applicable code
regulations, including zoning in progress (eg: revisions to the Code addressing temporary
sales trailers).
Waiver
Code Section
Section 78-141
Side Setback for
RL-3
(greater of 7.5" or
10% of lot width)
Required
9.46 - 10 feet
(for lots 66, 67, 72, 73,
77, 78, 85, and 86)
Provided
Nine (9) feet
(for lots 66, 67, 72, 73,
77, 78, 85, and 86)
Waiver
Between 0.46
feet and 1 foot
Recommendation
Support (1)
The applicant’s justification for this waiver is attached to this report.
(1)Staff supports the waiver from the 10% lot width side setback requirement. The
waiver is being requested for only eight lots, because Northern Palm Beach County
Improvement District needed to widen the adjacent drainage easements, thereby
reducing the buildable area for the lots in question. The request of this waiver was
not necessitated by an action of the applicant. The range within which the eight
lots in question fall short of the code requirement is 0.46 feet for the 94.6-foot wide
lots, to 1 foot for the 100-foot wide lots.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends APPROVAL of Ordinance 20, 2002, with the following conditions of
approval and the one requested waiver above:

because of the widening of the drainage easement from 20 feet to 30 feet. However, City
Council denied on first reading the requested waiver from the 25-foot front setback for Lots
13, 31,32, 35, 36, 38, 39, and 40. The applicant has since withdrawn the request for this
front setback waiver.

SAN MICHELE PUD
Waiver Justification Statement
March 8, 2002
Modified May 30, 2002
The LDR’s encourage the use of clustering units and the transfer of development rights to the
upland areas in an effort to consolidate and preserve open space. This consolidation of open
space benefits the community as a whole. In turn for the preservation of open space, it is the
intent of the LDR’s that the developer should be allowed flexibility in the application of Land
Development Regulations. Deviations from standard setbacks and other Land Development
Regulations have been fhcilitated through the site plan approval a~ part of the Planned Unit
Development District waiver approval process. In turn for an applicants agreement to bind their
land and subject themselves to conditions of approval, the City provides for and encourages
ingenuity, flexibility and imagination in the design of land within the Planned Unit Development
regulations. In that the Planned Unit Development regulations were created with this concept in
mind, specific land development regulations were not included in the PUD- Planned Unit
Development regulations at its inception. The proposed development plans for San Michele are
consistent with other previously approved single family parcels within PUD’s and PCD’s
throughout the City as well as the intent of the Planned Development District regulations.
The Code requires 40% of the PUD to be preserved as Open Space. San Michele provides for
over 74% of the PUD in Open Space. The gross density of San Michele is only 1.36 du’s/ac. In
comparison, PGA National, has 46% open space with a gross density of 2.24 du’s/ac and
Ballenlsles has 52% open space with a gross density of 1.8 du’s/ac.
All lots within this application abut open space in the form of water or preserve. Water and
preserve frontage provides tbr a feeling of open space around the units as well a.s limited access
to both ends of the lot.
We believe that the design of this project is consistent with previously approved projects in the
City, is consistent with the intent and purpose of the Planned Development regulations, and is
consistent with comparable development standards within other communities. For these reasons
we feel the requested waivers should be approved and respectfully request your support.
In that a Planned Unit Development District does not have specific land development
regulations, we have been asked to select an appropriate "underlying" zoning district for the
purposes of comparing the proposed development plan with standard zoning regulations. The
purpose of the comparison is to identify any deviations that may be proposed from the standard
setbacks. We have selected the RL-3 Residential Low Density District as the most appropriate
zoning district for comparison purposes, The proposed development is requesting the following
waivers ti’om the Land Development Regulations:
FILE No.492 05/31 ’02 13:41 ID:BFI FAX:561 276 1146 PAGE 3/ 3
SIDE SETBACK (Building, Screen, Accessory Structures - Lots 66, 67, 72, 73, 77, 78, 85,
and 86 only)
The applicant would like to request a waiver from Section 78- 141 Residential Zoning district
Regulations - RL-3 Residential Low Density District, Table 10, - Minimum Building Setback -
Side, which requires a side setback of 7.5 feet or 10% of the lot width, which ever is greater.
Under standard zoning regulations the side setback requirement for standard 90’ wide lots would
be 9 feet on each side of the lot. As a result of the increase in the width of the adjacent drainage
easements, the land area available tbr development is reduced by 5 feet. This condition makes
the standard side setback difficult to meet. The waiver request is to allow a 9 foot setback on the
"non easement side" of the lot. The waivers range in width from .46 ti:et to 1 foot. Setbacks on
the "easement" side of the lot will be a minimum of 15’ as a result of the width of the easement.

PCD-01-02
BACKGROUND
The Mirasol PCD (f.k.a Golf Digest)was initially approved by Ordinance 21, 1998, and
was subsequently amended by Ordinance 8, 2000 and Ordinance 18, 2001. The
applicant is requesting amendments that include the following:
(1)Adding language to condition 63 (CPTED condition), which would make CPTED
review inclusive of the entire PCD, not just within the PCD parcels.
(2)Revising the master plan to indicate a lake enlargement and deletion of
recreation center that was approved by Resolution 123, 2001 when Parcel 20
was amended.
(3)Adding a new condition that creates a process for accessing the rear of homes
through common open space throughout the PCD, in the event that access is
unobtainable through the side yards.
PROJECT DETAILS
Lake Reconfiquration
As part of a "house cleaning" measure, the City has required the applicant to amend the
PCD Master Plan to indicate a lake enlargement that was approved as an amendment
to Parcel 20 by Resolution 123, 2001 on July 21, 2001. A subsequent administrative
approval of a fishing pier and gazebo at this lake contained the following condition of
approval: ’~/Vithin three (3) months of this approval, the applicant shall submit
application to revise the Mirasol PCD Master Plan to reflect the lake reconfiguration as
shown on the Mirasol Parcel 20 Site Plan dated July 12, 2001." Adoption of the
proposed PCD Master Plan, as exhibited in Ordinance 14, 2002, shall satisfy this
condition.
Waiver Request
The proposed fishing pier includes construction within a Lake Maintenance Easement.
The applicant must request a waiver from section 78-563(e) to allow for construction
within a Lake Maintenance Easement.-
CPTED Review
As part of the review of the most recent PCD amendment, the Police Department
recommended that additional language be added to any future amendment to the PCD
2
City Council
Meeting Date: June 20, 2002
Date Prepared: June 4, 2002
Ordinance 14, 2002
PCD-01-02
to extend Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED) measures from
"development parcels" only to areas throu.qhout the PCD. Lighting and visibility
concerns within the Mirasol "Parkway System" also prompted concern about the
limitation of the existing language. Therefore, the applicant proposes the following
amendments to the existing language:
Condition 63: "Crime Prevention through Environmental Design (CPTED)
principles established through cooperation with the City’s Crime
Prevention Division shall be utilized during the site planning of the
development parcels and the PCD."
Access to Back of Lots
Additional concerns from the City Council have arisen while reviewing the residential
parcels within the Mirasol PCD. These concerns center on future need for rear access
for pool construction or yard maintenance due to the reduced side setback waiver. Staff
has proposed language to address this concern that is acceptable to the master
developer. The following language is as follows:
New Condition 74: "Prior to the issuance of the first Certificate of
Occupancy for each pod, the applicant shall make provisions in the is this
the homeowners association documents to provide means of access to
rear yards throuqh common areas, lake maintenance easements and golf
course areas, as applicable, for future construction or reconstruction by an
owner, if access is not possible within the owner’s property. Such access
shall be subject to limitations, conditions, restrictions and requirements,
determined by the association and governmental entities havinq
jurisdiction." (Planning and Zonin.q, City Attorney)
PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION
At its February 12, 2002, meeting, the Planning and Zoning Commission held a public
hearing on this application and unanimously recommended approval to the City Council.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends approval of the proposed amendments to the development order of
the Mirasol PCD.

Petition PUD-01-05
BAC[KGROUND
The existing PGA Plaza received Site Plan Approval from the City in April 1974, and was built in
two phases, with the potential of three out-parcels along PGA Blvd. A building permit was
issued for Phase I of the Plaza (59,320 square feet) on September 13, 1974. Since that time,
number of out-parcels have received site plan approval. The entire site is comprised of
approximately 112,222 square feet consisting of a 92,127 square feet of retail and restaurant
space, a 9,000 square foot bank out-parcel (currently Washington Mutual, permitted in 1974),
second 2,800 square foot bank out-parcel (currently SunTrust, permitted in 1981), and an 8,295
squa~re foot retail out-parcel (currently Pier 1, permitted in 1988).
Since 1988, the applicant has also submitted four applications for administrative approvals of
mino~" site plan amendments.
The proposed PUD rezoning will accommodate the widening of PGA Blvd at the intersection
with I~rosperity Farms Road as proposed by the Florida Department of Transportation and as
required by the Regional Center DRI development order. The request also decreases the
existing non-conformities of the site.
LAND USE & ZONING
The subject site is currently zoned General Commercial (CG-1). The petitioner is proposing
mainllain the General Commercial (CG-1) zoning district with the addition of a Planned Unit
Development overlay. The City’s Comprehensive Plan and Land Development Regulations
require that all lands subject to the PGA Boulevard Corridor Overlay be rezoned to either
Planned Unit Development or Planned Community District. The property presently has a future
land-~use designation of Commercial (C), and is designated as Commercial on the Vision Plan.
CONCURRENCY
The subject project was approved prior to concurrency requirements. The applicant is not
proposing any additional square footage for the project; therefore, it remains vested in terms of
concurrency.
In terms of drainage concurrency, this site shall outfall at the northeast corner of this site into the
Prosperity Farms Road drainage system.
PROJECT DETAILS
Exisbng Conditions
The applicant is proposing to renovate the parking and landscape areas by repaying the parking
area, restriping to meet current code requirements, adding and reconfiguring the landscape
islands, and adding additional landscaping materials. The applicant is not proposing to modify
the existing structures nor increase the square footage of the existing buildings.

City Council
Meeting Date: June 20, 2002
Date Prepared: June 10, 2002
Petition PUD-01-05
A condition of approval in the development order of the Regional Center DRI, Resolution 96,
1999, requires roadway improvements at the intersection of PGA Blvd and Prosperity Farms
Road within eighteen (18) months of issuance of any permit that would result in the total
development of the Regional Center exceeding 300,000 square feet. The widening of PGA Blvd
/ Prosperity Farms Road intersection requires a right-of-way taking along the PGA Plaza PGA
Blvd frontage.
Taking the needed right-of-way will increase the existing nonconformities on the site with
respect to parking and landscaping. The applicant proposes to decrease the nonconformity of
the site by renovating the landscaping and parking areas.
Site Access
The existing site has several legal nonconforming drive ways that intersect with both Prosperity
Farms Road and PGA Blvd. These drive ways are nonconforming in that they do not provide for
adequate stacking distances. The petitioner is proposing four entrances off of PGA Blvd and
two entrances off of Prosperity Farms Road that will require waivers to the 100’ stacking
distance requirement.
The petitioner has reflected the future expansion of PGA Blvd on the site plan, which will require
the taking of 0.3 acres from the northern portion of the site.
S~qnacle
The applicant has requested no modifications to the existing signage.
Landscaping Renovation
Due to the age of the existing site, this use has minimal landscape buffering. The existing
landscaping does not meet the requirements set forth in the City’s Land Development
Regulations. The site currently contains a few large oak trees; five (5) of which are being
affected by the parking reconfiguration but will be relocated into proposed landscape islands.
The applicant is adding additional landscape area along PGA Blvd, which will decrease the
site’s nonconformity to the PGA Boulevard Corridor Overlay requirement of a fifty-five foot (55’)
landscape buffer. The existing landscape buffer is less than five feet (5’) in width and has
maximum width of ten feet (10’).
PGA Boulevard Corridor Overlay
Section 78-221 of the City Code of Ordinances requires that all lands within the City that front or
abut PGA Blvd, for a depth of 1,000 feet from the edge of right-of-way, meet various aesthetic
design requirements. The proposed project does not meet these requirements. The PGA
Boulevard Overlay requires structures or paved areas for motor vehicles to be set back 55 feet
from the right-of-way, which the applicant cannot meet and therefore has requested a waiver
from the code.
The applicant is also seeking a waiver from the requirements of Section 78-221(g)(12), which
requires a 12-foot wide multi-use pathway to be set a minimum of 10 feet from the curbing. The
Florida Department of Transportation is planning to expand the intersection of PGA Blvd and
3
City Council
Meeting Date: June 20, 2002
Date Prepared: June 10, 2002
Petition PUD-01-05
Prosperity Farms Road, which will result in a taking of property along the northern boundary of
the site. Due to these constraints, a meandering 12-foot wide pathway would not allow for
sufficient landscaping and berming.
FDO T Taking
After the widening of the intersection, the site’s nonconformity to the required 55-foot landscape
buffer abutting PGA Blvd will be increased, by the FDOT taking, not because of any action of
the applicant. The FDOT taking will also result in a reduction in open space and landscaping;
however, the applicant is proposing to provide additional open space to make up the difference
and increase the open space by 1.5% on site.
Parking Lot Renovations
The applicant is proposing to renovate the parking lot to decrease the current nonconformity.
The site requires 551 parking spaces to support the retail, bank, and restaurant uses present on
the site. The site currently has 476 parking spaces, which is a deficiency of 75 spaces. The
applicant is proposing to repave the site, restripe the site, increase the number of parking
spaces (52 additional parking spaces), redesign the parking spaces to a uniform dimension and
improve the overall traffic circulation of the plaza. Navigating through and parking on the site is
difficult because of a lack of adequate striping and wheelstops. Many of the patrons create their
own parking spaces in the drive aisles. Presently, the proposed changes are greatly needed on
the site.
Nonconformities
There are several nonconformities on site that are being addressed with the modifications. Any
element of the redeveloped site plan that is non-conforming shall be addressed with a waiver
request.

STAFF ANALYSIS
PGA Boulevard Median Landscaping
Currently, the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) has an approved milling project,
which includes PGA Blvd directly adjacent to PGA Plaza. As part of the milling project, FDOT
included the design and installation of landscaping in the right-of-way medians within the
affected roadways. During the design, planning and approval process, the right-of-way directly
in front of PGA Plaza was omitted since the taking for the roadway improvement was not
finalized. As a result, the medians were not included in the proposal; therefore, the applicant
shall have the responsibility of providing the design, installation, and maintenance of the median
directly in front of the site.
Watermark Communities Inc. (WCI) has consented to design and install the landscaping within
the median since it is responsible for the roadway improvements, but will not maintain the
median. The applicant has suggested that the Regional Center Property Owners Association
take responsibility for the maintenance, since the roadway improvements triggered the
requirement for the PUD application. Staff has worked with the applicant, WCI, and the
Regional Center POA to resolve the issue. In the interest of facilitating the widening of the
aforementioned intersection, WCI has committed to pay to the City of Palm Beach Gardens
$5,000 toward the maintenance of the median landscaping directly abutting the plaza. The City
will maintain the median in the future.
Existing Nonconformities
The reconfiguration of the parking area, wheel stops, and striping are needed to improve the
circulation of the site to provide for the safety and welfare of the plaza patrons. The petitioner is
also proposing improving the plaza lighting; the site currently has a late-night establishment and
the improvements will benefit the aesthetics of the site as well as minimize safety concerns.
Although the site does not meet the current minimum landscaping requirements, parking
requirements, and lighting requirements of the City’s Land Development Regulations, the
petitioner is lessening the nonconformities of the site through improvements and waiver

Meeting Date: June 20, 2002

Petition PUD-01-05
requests. The Land Development Regulations encourage the lessening of nonconformities,
especially on sites that are considered legal nonconformities.
PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION
On August 28, 2001, the Planning and Zoning Commission recommended approval of the
application with staff’s conditions and approval of the waiver requests by a 6-1 vote.
Commissioner John Glidden opposed the motion because he believed the applicant could
revise the site plan to increase the stacking distance at the entrances. Commissioner Glidden
requested that the applicant work with FDOT to revise the location of the existing median cuts.
The applicant revised the site plan to provide additional stacking distance at two of the three
entrances on PGA Boulevard.
CITY COUNCIL
On May 2, 2002, the City Council approved Ordinance 21, 2002, on First Reading.
On June 6, 2002, the City Council continued the public hearing to June 20, 2002, to provide
staff time to contact the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) to determine the future
plan for the widening of the intersection of PGA Boulevard and Prosperity Farms Road.
At this time, staff is currently scheduled to meet with FDOT to review the current plan prior to
the scheduled public hearing.

Staff recommends approval of Ordinance 21, 2002.

Re: PGA Plaza Rezoning PUD 01-05 Median Landscaping Maintenance
Dear Mr. Wu:
As you may know, this Firm represents WCI Communities, Inc. ("WCI"). Please allow this letter
to confirm that WCI is committed to providing certain intersection enhancements at the intersection of PGA
Boulevard and Prosperity Farms Road as referenced in the Development Order for the Regional Center which
is Resolution 96, 1999, Condition 13.D.3. As you know, part of these intersection improvements include
road widening and median landscaping associated with Petition PUD 01-05, PGA Plaza.
Neither the landowner or any other party will commit to maintain the median in perpetuity. In the interest
of facilitating the widening of the above intersection, WCI hereby commits to pay to the City of Palm Beach
Gardens $5,000 toward the maintenance of the median landscaping associated with PUD 01-05.
The purpose of this one-time payment is to reimburse the City of Palm Beach Gardens for its initial
expenses in maintaining the median landscaping until this item can be incorporated as a regular item in the
City budget. We will make this payment within two weeks of the final development approval ofPUD 01-05.
It is our understanding that making this one-time payment to the City constitutes WCI’s only commitment
to this median landscaping maintenance and is in lieu of any other requirement by any party with respect to
PUD approval, or otherwise, to maintain such landscaping.
Please feel free to call me with any questions concerning this matter.

Palm Beach
PGA Plaza
Justification
1.Explain the nature of the request:
The PGA Plaza is an existing shopping center located on the southwest comer of PGA Boulevard and
Prosperity Farms Road. The center was built in the 1980s. Over the years, a number of out-parcels have
received approval for site plan modifications. The PGA Plaza is comprised of approximately 112,222
square feet consisting of 92,127 sq. ft. of retail and restaurant space, a 9,000 sq. ft. bank out-parcel, a
second 2,800 sq. ft. bank out-parcel, and a 8,295 sq. ft. retail out-parcel. The property currently has 473
parking spaces on site for the existing commercial space.
The proposed PUD application will accommodate the widening of PGA Boulevard at the intersection with
Prosperity Farms Road as proposed by the Florida Department of Transportation and as required by the
Gardens Mall DRI. The submittal also decreases the existing non-conformities by increasing the landscape
area along PGA Boulevard, increasing the number of parking spaces, redesigning the parking spaces to a
uniform dimension and improving the overall traffic circulation of the plaza.
Based on current Land Development Regulations of the City of Palm Beach Gardens, the site plan is
considered non-conforming. This non-conformity is due to the following site development characteristics:
This site is within the PGA corridor overlay and is required to have a 55’ special front
setback adjacent to PGA Boulevard. A majority of the existing landscape buffer is less
than 5’ in width and has a maximum width of 10’.
The parking required for this commercial center is 551 spaces. The sizes of these spaces
vary from 8.5’-10’ wide and 18’-20’ long. The parking provided on site is 75 spaces
short as required by Land Development Regulations.
2.What will be the impact of the proposed change on the surrounding area?
The proposed PUD application and the site plan modifications will not adversely impact the surrounding
area. We are not increasing the square footage of commercial uses or increasing the traffic impacts. The
site plan modifications will improve the traffic circulation and reduce the existing non-conformities on the
site by expanding the landscape buffer to 15’, adding 52 parking spaces, redesigning the parking stalls to a
uniform dimension.
o Describe how the rezoning request complies with the City’s Vision Plan and the
following elements of the City’s Comprehensive Plan-future Land Use, Transportation,
Housing, Infrastructure, Coastal Management, Conservation, Recreation and Open
Space, Intergovernmental Coordination and Capital Improvement.
We are not proposing to rezone the project.
o How does the proposed project comply with the City’s requirements for preservation of
Natural Resources and Native Vegetation? (Division VII, Landscaping, Land
Development Regulations)
PGA Plaza, an existing retail center, is currently landscaped and contains a few large oak trees. In an effort
to bring the site plan into compliance with the Land Development Regulations, additional landscape area is
being added to the site and 5 existing large oak trees affected by the parking reconfiguration are being
relocated into the proposed parking islands.
o How will the proposed project comply with City requirements of Art in the Public
Places? (Division V, Public Places, Subdivision I, Land Development Regulations)
The project is an existing shopping center and we are not proposing to increase the intensity of the project.
The site plan modifications are proposed to allow for the right-of-way expansion of PGA Boulevard at
Prosperity Farms Road as proposed by the Florida Department of Transportation and required under the
Gardens Mall DRI and to decrease the non-conformities of the existing site plan.
6.Concurrency Certification?
This is an existing project approved under several development orders and site plan modifications. The
concurrency for the project is vested through the previous approvals.

BACKGROUND
The "Village Square Professional Park" was approved in two phases with two separate
PUD approvals. Phase I and Phase II together total 65,800 square feet. The City Council
adopted Resolution 28, 1996, approving the 33,300 square-foot Phase I section of the
PUD (originally known as the "Damerau Office Park"). This resolution also included the
site plan approval for the first building on the subject site (11,740 square feet); the
remaining three buildings in Phase I would be required to "return to the City for approval of
the architectural, foundation landscaping, site irrigation and site improvements by the Site
Plan and Appearance Review Committee..." The Site Plan and Appearance Review
Committee, currently known as the Planning and Zoning Commission, approved the
architecture, foundation landscaping, and the site irrigation for Building #2 (8,100 square
feet) on July 14, 1998, Building #3 (5,560 square feet) on November 30, 1999,
Building #4 (8,100 square feet) on October 10, 2000. All four (4) buildings have
constructed and are currently occupied.
The PUD for the 32,500 square-foot Phase II was approved with the adoption on March 19,
1999, of Ordinance 10, 1999. This ordinance also included the site plan approval for the
5,855 square-foot Building #700, which has been completed. Building #800 was approved
by the Planning and Zoning Commission on May 8, 2001, and has also been completed.
The applicant has not yet submitted development applications for the two remaining
buildings. Upon completion, Phase II will have four buildings totaling 32,500 square feet.
LAND USE & ZONING
The subject site is zoned Professional Office (PO) with a Planned Unit Development (PUD)
overlay, and has a future land-use designation of Professional Office (PO).
PROJECT DETAILS
The applicant is proposing a covered parking structure over seven (7) existing parking
spaces in Phase II that will be located on the west side or rear of Building #700. The total
number of required parking spaces for Phase II is 109, but the Phase II site plan was
approved for 120 spaces, all of which have been built. Phase I to the north has 111
parking spaces, for a total of 231 spaces for both Phases I and II.
Construction of the proposed covered parking will include steel pole frames and light beige
or "off-white" vinyl canvas, which is compatible with the color of the building.
Other similar, covered parking projects that have been approved within the City include
Fairway Office Center at PGA National and NorthCorp.

Petition: LDR-02-03
REQUEST
The amendment is proposed to comply with the City Council directive to change the cross-
section of PGA Boulevard to a four-lane cross-section west of the Avenue of the
Champions. Please see Exhibit "A." Section 78-231, Parkway Overlay district, currently
reflects this section as a six-lane cross-section west of the Florida Turnpike. This existing
six-lane cross-section has also been revised to apply only to that segment west of the
Turnpike and east of Avenue of the Champions. Please see Exhibit "B."
BACKGROUND
In 1999, the Palm Beach Gardens City Council passed Resolution 118, 1999, supporting a
four-lane cross-section and urging the County and other governmental organizations to
amend their relevant documents to reflect PGA Boulevard with a four-lane cross-section,
west of the Avenue of the Champions.
The County’s Year 2020 Roadway Network by Number of Lanes and the Metropolitan
Planning Organization’s (MPO) 2025 Cost Feasible Plan reflect PGA Boulevard as a four-
lane cross-section west of Jog Road (Rider Cup Boulevard).
The City of Palm Beach Gardens would like the four-lane cross-section to begin at Avenue
of the Champions, which is east of what is currently reflected on the County’s Year 2020
Roadway Network by Number of Lanes and the MPO’s 2025 Cost Feasible Plan.
The City Council is concerned that a six-lane cross-section west of the Florida Turnpike to
Jog Road would likely require an encroachment into the residential areas of PGA National
Planned Community Development (PCD) in order to accommodate the needed right-of-way
for a six-lane cross-section. However, a four-lane cross-section provides the City with the
opportunity to shift the proposed right-of-way to the north to protect the residential area in
PGA National PCD. Another concern is that expanding PGA Boulevard to six lanes along
that segment is not suitable because the area is primarily residential in nature. The two
largest residential communities in the City are located along this segment of PGA
Boulevard (Mirasol and PGA National PCDs).
PROCEDURE
This is a request initiated by staff to formally amend the City’s Land Development
Regulations. The Planning and Zoning staff forwards comments and recommendations to
the Land Development Regulations Commission (LDRC). Acting in an advisory role, the
LDRC considers the recommendations of City staff and makes a recommendation to the
City Council. The City Council reviewsthe request for approval, and makes a final
determination of approval, approval with conditions, or denial.

Re:PGA Boulevard Four-lane Cross-section West of Avenue of the

Dear Commissioner Marcus:
On behalf of the City Council of the City of Palm Beach Gardens, we respectfully request
your assistance in urging Palm Beach County planning staff to initiate a comprehensive
plan amendment to the County’s Comprehensive Plan to modify the cross-section for
PGA Boulevard from six lanes to a four-lane cross-section west of the Avenue of the
Champions.
The County’s Year 2020 Roadway Network by Number of Lanes and the Metropolitan
Planning Organization (MPO)’s 2025 Cost Feasible Plan reflect PGA Boulevard with
four-lane cross-section west of Jog Road (Rider Cup. Boulevard). The City of Palm
Beach Gardens would like the four-lane cross-section to begin at Avenue of the
Champions, which is east of what is currently reflected on the County’s Year 2020
Roadway Network by Number of Lanes and the MPO’s 2025 Cost Feasible Plan.

four-lane cross-section and urging the County and other governmental organizations to
amend their relevant documents to reflect PGA Boulevard with a four-lane cross-section,
west of the Avenue of the Champions. The City Council is concerned that a six-lane
cross-section west of the Florida Turnpike to Jog Road would likely require an
encroachment into the residential areas of PGA National Planned Community

Stormwaler Management Plan
Prepared by LBFH, Inc.
January 2002
Executive Summary
Government and the community now recognize that stormwater capacity is a major contributor
to the environmental and fl_~in~ degr_a.Oa_tio_.n of many of the State’s natural and man-made
waterways. In the City of Palm Beach Gardens, where most of the City’s drainage basins have
been extensively modified through urbanization, the impacts associated with the older more
modified stormwater canals are well documented.
The majority of the City of Palm Beach Gardens’ (City) surface water management system was
constructed in the early 1960’s. Over the years as the facilities have aged, their original design
cross sections have diminished resulting in a decrease in canal storage and conveyance capacity.
Public meetings were held after the October 1995 storm, the January 1999 storm and Hurricane
Irene where residents expressed their concerns over flooding that occurred within the City.
Restoration activities were planned and some undertaken, to clean the canals to decrease the
frequency of flooding. In 1999 the City solicited LBFH, Inc. to study the implementation of a
stormwater utility to provide a dedicated funding source for the badly needed stormwater
management projects. When the City Council voted not to proceed with the stormwater utility,
the need for a stormwater plan that prioritized projects within the City was identified.
A very important understanding in any stormwater management document prepared in South
Florida is the definition of expected levels of service. Water surface elevations in relation to the
road crown elevation and finished floor elevation generally define levels of service for
stormwater systems in Florida. Based on South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD),
Palm Beach County and City criteria, levels of service are typically discussed in terms of a 10-
year storm, a 25-year storm, and a 100-year storm.
Most of the City’s neighborhoods have grassed swales in front of the homes. Those swales serve
as stormwater conveyance facilities where residents should expect to find water during the 10-
year storm event. As the intensity of rainfall events increases, additional runoff must be stored
within the system. Generally, a 25-year storm event will drop approximately 10 to 12 inches of
rainfall in a 24-hour period (SFWMD 1990, 14). For this type of storm event, residents can
expect water in the roadways, sometimes even at or above the crown of the road. This is what
ii
would be considered a"nuisance?’ high water situation. For the purpose of this plan, the presence
of water in the swale in front of the house or in the street is not considered a flooding situation.
A 100-year storm event can drop as much as 12 to 13 inches of rainfall on the area within a 24-
hour period (SFWMD 1990, 14). It is the intent of the regulations of both the City and SFWMD
that during a 100-year 3-day rainfall event that water levels should not reach finished floor
elevations. As long.as the building floors stay dry, the water management system is performing
effectively and correctly.
The drainage system serving the City includes water management facilities operated and
maintained by SFWMD, NPBCID and the City. The drainage system can be divided into eight
major drainage basins: The City’s C-17 Canal Basin, Unit 2 Basin, PGA National Resort Basin,
Parcel 16 Basin, Mirasol Basin, the Allamanda Basin, RCADitch Basin, and the Palm Beach
County Cabana Colony Canal Basin. Projects were identified by basin and classified as either
"proposed capital improvements" or "projects requiring further investigation". For the ten
proposed capital and canal restoration projects nine (9) criteria were selected to be part of the
project evaluation process. The evaluation criteria selected to prioritize and rank the projects
were Flood Damage Impacts Upstream, Discharge Capacity Diminished, Impacts C-17
Discharges, Historical Flooding Complaints, Potential for Citizen Involvement, Financial.
Assistance Possible, Benefits to other Capital Improvement Projects, Aesthetic Value to the City,
and Public Health and Safety Ranking. Preliminary cost estimates were then prepared for the ten
recommended Capital and Canal Restoration Projects. A summary of the project ranking and
cost estimates is provided below:

It should be noted that Plat 4 is the only "secondary" drainage system currently included in the
priority list. However, there are several older secondary drainage systems in the City, similar to
Plat 4 that are reaching the end of their useful life. These systems will soon be due for
replacement and renewal. As problems are identified within these older systems, through citizen
complaints, flooding, and/or Public Works operation, maintenance and inspection activities,
further investigative work should be undertaken by Public Works to determine replacement and
renewal needs. Those projects could then be incorporated into the Capital Restoration priority
ranking for the City.

.INTRODUCTION
Background
¯ The City Of Palm Beach: Gardens is located in thenortheastern part of Palm Beach County,
Florida (Figure 1). The majority of the City of Palm. Beach Gardens" (City)surface water
management system was constructed in the early 1960’s. Over the years as the facilities have
.aged, their original design cross sections have diminished resulting in a-decrease in canal storage
and conveyance capacity. Public meetings were held after the October.. 1995 storm, the January
1999 storm and Hurricane Irene where-residents expressed their concerns over flooding that
occurred within the City. Restoration activities were planned and some undertaken, to clean the
canals to decrease the frequency of flooding. In 1999 the City solicited LBFH, Inc. to study the
implementation of a stormwater utility to provide a dedicated funding source for the badly
needed stormwater management projects. When the City Council voted not to proceed with the
stormwater utility, the need for a stormwater plan that prioritized projects within the City was
identified.
Purpose of the Plan
The purpose of this stormwater plan is to identify and prioritize stormwater management projects
for the City, and to provide the City with a planning tool for use in budgeting stormwater
management projects. The main focus of this report is on the City’s primary drainage system
(canal drainage), however, it also addresses some of the secondary (storm sewer) and tertiary
drainage (swale) issues within the City. An example is the proposed works in Plat 4, which
include secondary drainage improvements to address substantial hyd~:aulic conveyance and
storage problems. The conclusions and recommendations contained in this report are based on
various sources of information including: the City Manager, past and present Public Works
Directors, past and present employees of the City, the City Engineer, Northern Palm Beach
County Improvement District and recent survey information where available.
Scope of the Plan
LBFH, Inc. was authorized by the City of Palm Beach Gardens in July of 2001 to prepare a plan
for proposed stormwater management improvements of the City’s drainage system. The scope of
work included collection of available information on the existing drainage basins, control
structures, and the current status of the canal and swale restoration work. The scope required
development of a plan to prioritize stormwater management projects and provide a recommended
schedule for completion and preliminary engineer’s opinion of probable costs.
Other Ongoing StOrmwater Management Efforts
Swale Restoration
The’City’s Public Works Department has a swale maintenance crew that performs construction
or rehabilitation of swales within the road rights-of-way. Through fiscal year 2000 the City had
rebuilt 27 sites for a total of 3.85 miles of swale restoration. A typical roadway swale cross-
section has been developed for the City’s rights-of-way.(see Figure 18). It is recommended that
the City continue the swale restoration work by prioritizinglocations based on the 2001
Pavement Management Program for roadway resurfacing and repair that is currently being
finalized. The swale construction .and restoration work will be scheduled at the same time as the
roadway work to save taxpayer’s dollars and minimize disruption in the neighborhood.
Roadway repairs are often disruptive to the swales and require the swales to be regraded and
repaired. We do not want to improve swales before the adjacent roadwork is complete only to
have the swale work destroyed. The current swale crew budget is approximately $425,000.
Council will approve the proposed rate of road pavement improvements and we recommend
coordination between programs. Should the improvements not require the full budget for swale
work, the unused funds should be used to complete other works documented herein.
Radio Telemetry System
Radio telemetry is the technology of automatic radio transmission of data from a remote source
to a receiving station for recording or analysis. A good radio telemetry system can provide the
backbone for remotely monitoring and controlling surface water management systems. By using
a common radio channel, a computer at a central site can query each of the remote locations for
water level data. This eliminates the need to drive around the City to check on head water stages
at remote locations.
In order for the City Public Works staff to be able to assess potential flooding situations more
accurately, and in a much more efficient manner, the Public Works Department is proposing to
install radio, telemetry equipment at various sites. The radio telemetry remote terminal units
(RTUs) will monitor water levels and send the real-time data to a Central Terminal Unit in the
City’s Municipal Complex. Designated persons on the City’s intranet will have access to the
data. The equipment installed will be compatible with NPBCID’s, offering some advantages to
the City in being able to view water levels monitored by NPBCID in the futu.re.
Due to funding issues the project is being phased. The first phase includes installing five (5)
RTUs and the Central Terminal Unit. In the near future, three (3) additional RTUs are proposed
to be installed within the Mirasol project as part of their Development Order.
The five proposed sites are (see Figure 19):
1.MacArthur Bridge.
2.Oaks East control structure*.

Canal and¯ Capital Restoration Pro|ect Evaluation
Evaluation Criteria
Definition of project evaluation criteria is a challenging task. A brainstorming session was held
with senior water resources staff to define possible evaluation criteria. During that session, 35
different criteria were identified. Of those 35, some were grouped with others or considered to
~be very similar and merged to a final listing of 22. Of these 22, thirteen were determined to be
either subjective or there was agreement that no data¯ was. available to support their use and no
time was available to generate data. The remaining nine (9) evaluation criteria that were selected
to be part of the project evaluation process are shown in Table 3. A brief description of each
criterion follows:
Flood Damage Impacts Upstream
This criterion is whether or not the reach of canal or subbasin, due to its existing condition, is
causing adVerse impacts upstream. For a reach of canal, an adverse upstream impact .would be
¯ higher stages due to a decreased ability of the canalto convey basin discharges. Higher tailwater
stages upstream result in a decreased ability for upstream areas to discharge at their design
and/or permitted capacity. A "YES" answer indicates this reach does cause impacts to upstream
canal areas. Data was assembled from Public Works, Citizen Services, and GIS Department for
this criteria.
Discharge Capacity Diminished
This criterion indicates whether a canal reach is no longer at its original design capacity, due to
sedimentation or siltation, and sloughing in of the canal bank side slopes. For an older storm
sewer system, the original design capacity may be undersized, or the system may be
deteriorating, or may no longer be adequate to pass the flows due to changing conditions since it
was originally constructed. A "YES" answer indicates the design capacity is diminished. Data
was assembled from Public Works, Citizen Services, and Engineering for this criteria.
Impacts C-17 Discharges
Figure 20 demonstrates that most of the City’s stormwater related complaints come from the C-
17 basin and in particular the Thompson River Canal and the Earman River Canal. We also
recognized that several other municipal governments and agencies discharge to the C-17 and
have a potential impact on our high water concerns. Therefore, anything we do to decrease our
impacts to the C-17 benefit the regional high water issues. This evaluation criterion is "YES" if
the canal reach or subbasin outfalls to the C-17 Canal, either directly, or indirectly.
Historical Flooding Complaints
This criterion is depicted in Figures 20, 21 and 22, and is partly based on complaints documented
in the City’s Citizen Services Specialist’s complaint log for the period between January 1, 1999

Preliminary Cost Estimates "
Preliminary cost estimates, have been prepared for the ten recommended Capital and canal "
.Restoration Projects (see Table 4). These are planning.level cost estimates with a feasibility level
accuracy of plus or minus 30 percent of actual costs in present day dollars. Consistent judgment
and assumptions were applied during their development. For the canal restoration projects, actual
unit costs for previous canal restoration projects were used, along with consideration for
accessibility of the sites. A more detailed cost estimate is provided for Plat 4 - Phase 2 that is
broken down by subbasin.

Recommendations
The report recommendations, fall into three basic categories:. Investigation~,Continued
Involvement, and Project Construction and Implementation.
Investi.qation
It was recognized during the development of the plan that there was very limited information
available on some reaches of the canals. Not only specifically about the canals, but also about
impacts to adjacent properties and impacts to properties within the subbasins associated with
those canals. Therefore, it was not within the author’s ability to fill in the evaluation criteria
. tables for those reaches from a position of knowledge. Our recommendations,, therefore, are to
seek additional information on these particular reaches of canals. Listed below are the specific
reaches that have been identified as areas requiring further investigation by the City’s Public
works staff.
¯Earman River Canal from MacArthur Blvd. to C-17
¯Earman River Canal from 1-95 to Military Trail
¯Thompson River Canal from Hickory to Avenue of the PGA’s
¯FEC Ditch from RCA Boulevard to Plat 4
¯Bellwood Canal South
¯Bellwood Canal North
¯Allamanda Canal from Siena Oaks to the Oaks East Development at Bums Road
¯Allamanda Canal from the Oaks East Ditch Juncture East and South to the end of the
Canal adjacent to Parcel 14 of the Meridian Park Condominium Development
Allamanda Canal adjacent to and within the Meridian Park Development from its
Juncture with Siena Oaks to its location adjacent to the Palm Beach Gardens Medical
Center Hospital and then South to Meridian Way
These reaches of canals need to be evaluated, some additional data collected and then a
prioritization established in conjunction with the other projects that are in our current canal
restoration projects ranking list. The canals to be investigated do not demonstrate any major
failures and therefore should not be considered urgent. However, it is prudent that these canals
be investigated soon. It is our recommendation that these canals be investigated within an 18-
month period of time and that this report be modified to include the canals in the ranking at that
time.
69
Continued Involvement
Listed below are the special projects that have been-identified as those reqmring continued
involvement:
¯Radio Telemetry System
¯S 44 Structure Third Gate (SFWMD)
¯C-17 Backpumping and Treatment Project (SFWMD/CERP)
¯G-160 Structure in the C-18 Canal (SFWMD)
¯Unit 2FLlnit 2A Second Outfall (NPBCID)
The .analysis of the third gate for the S 44 structure, the improvements being contemplated for
the C-18 Canal, along with projects associated with backpumping C-17 waters into the City of
West Palm Beach’s Water Catchment Area are all activities that require the City to maintain
some involvement. All three of these projects have the potential to have a significant impact on
the City’s water resource system, and as such require participation on the City’s part. Our
recommendation is that the City maintain involvement in all four of these study projects and
where necessary, write letters that support positions that benefit the City.
In addition to the specific projects listed above, it is our recommendation that the City take an
active role in cooperation with developers of vacant parcels within the City yet to be developed.
Where the City-has canals and conveyance facilities adjacent to those parcels, the City must
work closely with the developers to ensure that the appropriate improvements are factored into
the site plan and into the development order conditions. Follow-up is also necessary to ensure
that those improvements are made at the time the site is developed.

The Thompson River Canal from Lighthouse to Holly Drive is not a surprise. We have identified
¯ that project as a primary project that the City needs to undertake for some time. Note that reaches
like the Thompson River Canal from Holly to 1-95, which has already been cleaned and had one
bank established, but needs to have the second bank established, is identified here as a lower
priority. A focus, as we hoped it would be, has been to re-establish canal cross-sections and
recreate the principal drainage areas first.

It should be noted that Plat 4 is the only "secondary" drainage system currently included in the
priority list. However, there are several older secondary drainage systems in the City, similar to
Plat 4 that are reaching the end of their useful life. These systems will soon be due for
replacement and renewal. As problems are identified within these older systems, through citizen
complaints, flooding, and/or Public Works operation, maintenance and inspection activities,
further investigative work should be undertaken by Public Works to determine replacement and
72
renewal needs. Those projects could then be incorporated into the Capital Restoration priority
ranking for the City.
Schedule
It will be important for the City to complete the prioritized projects as quickly as funds are made
available: In addition, the investigative work should be completed as Soon as possible to
determine whether additional projects need to be evaluated and added to the priority list. Due to
the age of the City’s stormwater system, continued maintenance and enhanced¯ restoration work
is essential for properly managing flood control efforts.
~Table 6 below shows the anticipated durations for each of the projects. These are calendar day
estimates and include the construction activities as well as bid and award time, time for
community notice and neighborhood meeting,s, time for permitting, outside agency coordination,
mobilization and demobilization.
Actual construction efforts range from 107 to 528 days.
