X. RESOLUTIONS:
a. Moved to Consent Resolution 171, 2004 – Agreement for Professional
Engineering and Surveying Services between the City of Palm Beach Gardens

b. (Staff Report on Page 76, Resolution on Page 78)_Resolution 198, 2004 – a
resolution of the City Council of the City of Palm Beach Gardens, Florida
postponing the run-off election date to fill the vacancy in Council seat # 1 from
September 14, 2004 until November 2, 2004; and providing an effective date.
It is urgent that the run-off election date be modified prior to Friday,
September 10th. As of September 8th, staff is aware of at least 6 polling
locations that are unavailable or availability cannot be confirmed.
Additionally, with major power outages and lack of phone service
throughout the City, it is not possible to make contact with the 115 poll
workers. Additionally, the voting equipment has not yet been picked up by
the SOE to be recalibrated in time for a September 14th run-off election.
There are several constraints with regard to rescheduling the election. It is
likely that the voting machines will not be available for use by the City due to
the L & A testing that must be performed by the SOE in preparation for the
November 2nd General Election. As a result, it would then become necessary
for the City to design and utilize an alternative voting method such as paper
ballots. Rescheduling the run-off election to November 2nd will eliminate the
need to use an alternative voting method and will save approximately
$30,000, which could be better used toward the disaster recovery process
caused by Hurricane Frances.
The City has incurred a cost of $3,200.00. $2,200.00 for the required
publication of election notices in the Palm Beach Post and $1,000.00 for the
required publication of the election notices in LaPalma, which is the Spanish
version required by law.
XI. ORDINANCES: (For Consideration on First Reading)
a. (Staff Report on Page 80, Ordinance on Page 82)_Ordinance 40, 2004 - An
Ordinance Of The City Council Of The City Of Palm Beach Gardens, Florida,
Relating To The Construction, Reconstruction And Repair Work On Structures
Damaged By Hurricane Frances; Authorizing The City Manager To Implement
Necessary Modifications To The Building Permit Process; And Providing An
Effective Date.
The building division anticipates that an extraordinary number of building
permits will be necessary to accomplish repairs and reconstruction of
structures damaged in the hurricane. This emergency ordinance will
authorize the City Manager to take whatever steps necessary to modify the
building permitting process to ensure the timely, efficient, and safe recovery
efforts in the City.
XII. ITEMS FOR COUNCIL ACTION/DISCUSSION:
a. Rescheduling the Regular City Council Meetings for the month of September.
In order to adopt the City’s budget for fiscal year 2004-2005, it will be
necessary to have 2 meetings prior to the end of September. Due to
advertising requirements, it will not be possible to utilize the previous
meeting date of September 21st. It will have to be cancelled; it is therefore,
necessary to schedule a regular meeting on either September 14th or
September 15th and another regular meeting on September 28th.

Clerk read Ordinance 18, 2004 by title only on second reading. Senior Planner Michael
Sanchez presented changes to the staff report since first reading, including an amendment to

intensity which would allow a theater in excess of 500 seats. Mayor Jablin declared the
public hearing open. Michael Morrell, an attorney representing the PGA Residents Coalition,
the three neighborhoods surrounding the Borland project, as well as 17 individuals, thanked
staff for working with them, and encouraged the City Council to pass the ordinance and this
amendment. Dodi Glas, Urban Design Studio spoke about the list of permitted uses and
requested arts, hobbies, and crafts be added as an additional use. Mr. Wu indicated staff did
not consider it an appropriate use for the PGA Corridor. Discussion ensued. Consensus of the
City Council was not to add this use at this time since there was an appeals process through
the Planning, Zoning and Appeals Board by which it could be added at a more appropriate
time. Councilmember Levy made a motion to approve the amendment to Ordinance 18,2004
as read into the record by Mr. Sanchez. Councilmember Delgado seconded the motion, which

Ordinance 20, 2004 - Amendment to Chapter 6 - Code of Ordinances - Alcoholic
Beverapes”. (2nd reading) An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Palm Beach
Gardens, Florida relating to alcoholic beverages; amending Section 6-1, Code of Ordinances,
entitled “Definitions;” amending Section 6-2, Code of Ordinances, entitled “Hours of Sale;”
repealing Section 6-4, Code of Ordinances, entitled “Distance Limitations Between Vendors,
Churches, and Schools,: in its entirety; creating a new Section 6-4, Code of Ordinances, to be
CITY OF PALM BEACH GARDENS REGULAR MEETING, 8/5/04 4
entitled “Distance Limitations Between Vendors, Places of Worship, and Schools;” repealing
Section 6-5, Code of Ordinances, entitled “Hotels, Motels, Restaurants, etc.,“ in its entirety;
creating a new Section 6-5, Code of Ordinances, to be entitled “Exceptions to Distance

Stores Selling Malt Beverages and Wine,” in its entirety; creating a new Section 6-6, Code of
Ordinances, to be entitled “Vendors of Malt and Wine Beverages for Consumption Off
Premises Only; “ providing for Codification; and providing an effective date. The City Clerk
read Ordinance 20,2004 on second reading. Senior Planner Michael Sanchez explained this
ordinance was the same as presented at first reading, and at first reading City Council had
requested staff analyze what would happen if the distance between vendors remained at 750
feet, the current requirement, instead of 500 feet, the proposed change, and exempting
restaurants, veteran organizations, hotels, as currently exempted, and adding the exemption
of theaters. Mr. Sanchez explained this would affect three current projects. In Downtown at
the Gardens, any restaurant would be allowed to serve alcohol, the theater would be allowed
to serve alcohol, nightclubs, bars and lounges would have to be now 750 feet apart instead of
500 feet, and liquor stores would not be permitted in the project. In Donald Ross Village,
restaurants and hotels would be allowed to serve alcohol, liquor stores would have to be 750
feet apart, and nightclubs, lounges and bars would not be permitted. In the Borland Center
restaurants and hotels and the theater would be allowed to serve alcohol, liquor stores would
have to be 750 feet apart, and nightclubs, lounges and bars would not be permitted. Mr.
Sanchez clarified that the ordinance as presented was not changed from first reading, and
would essentially be the same except the distance requirement would be different. Mayor
Jablin declared the public hearing open. Resident Vito DeFrancesco spoke against the change
in distance, commented the Borland Center church was also to be used as a theater and asked
how alcohol could be allowed there, and expressed his opinion this was being done to
enhance profits for developers. Robert Davis, 1 18 Orchid Cay, BallenIsles, indicated he
agreed with Mr. DeFrancesco to some extent and asked how it could be allowed in the
Borland Center if there was a church, school and restaurants only 50 feet apart, and it should
be all or none. Mayor Jablin indicated that was what the Council was trying to do, to be
equally fair. Councilmember Delgado clarified that this amendment had not been initiated by
the Borland Center. Councilmember Levy commented a lot of churches and synagogues
served wine as part of their religion so he did not see the point of banning it from the area of
a church when the church might be serving wine itself. Councilmember Delgado received
clarification that the theater at Downtown at the Gardens was not being used as a church.
Julia Byrd, Daffodil Circle, commented movie theaters at Promenade and Loehmann’s were
not allowed to serve liquor and why should the door be opened to do so. It was clarified by
the City Attorney that serving liquor was currently allowed in the theaters but none had
requested a liquor license from the state, and the City had no jurisdiction over the state. That
was not being changed, and this ordinance was just distances between establishments.
Hearing no further comments from the public, Mayor Jablin declared the public hearing
closed. Councilmember Levy indicated he had spoken to the City Attorney regarding the fact
that some churches served wine, and the way the ordinance was currently written he believed
it could be interpreted as being illegal within the City, so he would vote in favor of the
ordinance. Mayor Jablin reported he had spoken to two rabbis, a priest, and a couple of
ministers, and none had a problem with the ordinance and were puzzled as to why there
should be any concern. Councilmember Levy made a motion to approve Ordnance 20,2004
CITY OF PALM BEACH GARDENS REGULAR MEETING, 8/5/04 5
on second reading by title only. Councilmember Delgado asked what would happen if she did
not second, since only three members were present, to which Mayor Jablin responded the
gavel could be passed so that he could make the second. Councilmember Delgado declined to
second. The gavel was passed to Councilmember Levy and Mayor Jablin seconded the
motion. The motion carried by 2-1 vote, with Councilmember Delgado opposed.
Councilmember Delgado requested a recess. Following the 5-minute recess the meeting was
reconvened.
Part I1 - Ouasi-iudicial
Ordinance 13. 2004 -Borland Center for Community Enrichment (2nd reading). An
Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Palm Beach Gardens, Florida relating to
rezoning; providing for the rezoning of a parcel of land consisting of 47 acres, more or less,
located along the North side of PGA Boulevard between Gardens Square Boulevard and

zoning of mixed use (MXD) to be known as the Palm Beach Community Church/Borland
Center PUD; revising the zoning district map; and providing an effective date. (Resolution
92,2004 is a companion item to Ordinance 13,2004 and will require Council action.)
Resolution 92,2004 - Borland Center for Community Enrichment. A Resolution of the City
Council of the City of Palm Beach Gardens, Florida approving a waiver of the residential
requirement within a mixed use project to allow for a mixed use Planned Unit Development
(PUD) utilizing non-residential mixed use intensities and measures; approving the master
development plan for the approximately 47-acre property, known as the Borland Center/Palm
Beach Community Church (a.k.a. Parcel 6.01A), located along the North side of PGA
Boulevard between Gardens Square Boulevard and Shady Lakes Drive, as described more
particularly herein, to allow the development of 64,533 square feet for a cultural center and
church facilities (500-seat small theatedchurch facility with accessory uses and 300-seat
banquet hall), 64,025 square feet for retail/commercial use, 19,950 square feet for restaurant
use, 10,900 square feet for professional office use, and 225 multi-family units; granting
conditional use approval for a 500-seat small theater use/church and 300-seat banquet
facility; providing for waivers; providing for conditions of approval; and providing an
effective date. The City Clerk read Ordinance 13,2004 by title only on second reading and
Resolution 92, 2004 by title only. Councilmember Levy disclosed he had had none, and
Mayor Jablin disclosed he had had none. Senior Planner Kara Irwin made the staff
presentation and indicated the staff report was a collaboration by staff members, including
Charles Wu and Tala1 Benothman, and that the entire project file had been placed into the
record and was available for public view at any time within the hours of operation 8 to 5
Monday through Friday. In response to Councilmember Levy's concern that the preserve on-
site might not be large enough to accommodate wildlife, the City Forester indicated the City
was satisfied with the amount of preserve on site because of mitigation off-site. Attorney Ray
Royce spoke on behalf of the applicant, and asked for clarification of condition 26. City
Engineer Dan Clark and Ms. Irwin clarified that before anything else could be built on site,
an analysis of the traffic generated from what was already built would be required, and if
there were trips left between that number and the amount of trips approved through the
concurrency, those trips would still be available for use. It was agreed that the existing
language for condition 26 would remain. Ms. Irwin confirmed that the City would provide a
CITY OF PALM BEACH GARDENS REGULAR MEETING, 8/5/04 6
letter stating the intent of this condition. Attorney Royce asked for clarification of condition
3 1. Ms. Irwin responded this was a request for a traffic light before it was warranted, and the
City would request the permits, and it would be a flashing light until warranted. Mr. Royce
asked for clarification of condition 41, and asked that if the City received $250,000 as a
result of a sale of the property containing a conservation easement that the City release the
conservation easement. Following discussion, Mr. Royce requested this application be
moved forward. Mayor Jablin announced that this was a continuation of a public hearing that
had been open since July 15 and called for comments fkom the public. Vito DeFrancesco
advised he had provided a handout of the City’s law regarding what could and could not be
built in residential and non-residential MXD zoning districts and stated the proposed waiver
was against the comprehensive plan. Mr. DeFrancesco took issue that the applicant was not
mitigating 25% upland preserve as required by the comprehensive plan. Mr. DeFrancesco
expressed his opinion the comprehensive plan was not being followed for land use by placing
residential with commercial. Robert Stimac, Shady Lakes, commented the City Council
seemed not to be able to vote no on any project that increased traffic density on the roads and
commended Mr. DeFrancesco for his efforts regarding this project. Mr. Stimac stated he was
named in the agreement between the homeowners associations and the Borland Center but
did not sign it and reserved the right to object to the project, and expressed his concerns. Mr.
Stimac asked how residential property could be placed in a non-residential MXD, which Ms.
Irwin explained. Judy Steinbauer, Community Association Manager representing Garden
Lakes Community Association, expressed concern the final plans showed a wall between
their property and Borland Center and reported they and the applicant had reached agreement
to have a fence instead of a wall with landscape vegetation between the two parcels. Ms.
Irwin reported the most recent plan showed a fence. Richard Oman, 4203 Oak Street,
representing PGA Corridor Residents Coalition, received clarification that the 500-seat
theater and 500-seat church were the same building, and confirmed with the applicant that
Borland accepted and was subject to the new PGA Corridor Overlay amendments. Mr. Royce
asked those in support of this application to stand, rather than to speak in order to save time,
which was done. Hearing no further comments from the public, Mayor Jablin declared the
public hearing closed. Councilmember Levy expressed concern regarding the on-site wildlife
corridor, but indicated it was not being voted on now. Councilmember Levy made a motion
to place Ordinance 13,2004 on second reading by title only and to approve Ordinance 13,
2004. Councilmember Delgado seconded the motion. The City Attorney verified that this
application was consistent with the comprehensive plan. Motion carried by unanimous 3-0
vote. Mayor Jablin indicated that the presentation had already been made for Resolution 92,
2004 and called for comments. Attorney Royce clarified that in addition to the 80’ buffer, the
applicant was providing an additional 20’ buffer and landscaping on the other side of Shady
Lakes and landscaping in the median, which should accommodate small wildlife. Mr.
DeFrancesco requested to cross examine Ms. Irwin and read statements fkom the staff report,
asking if what he had read was true. Ms. Irwin responded Mr. DeFrancesco was reading
definitions, and what was in her staff report was true to the best of her knowledge. Mr.
DeFrancesco asked why Shady Lakes was omitted when talking about adjacent
developments. Ms. Irwin explained Shady Lakes was directly adjacent to a portion of the
project that would not be developed, and had not been omitted. Attorney Tatum interrupted
to explain that cross examination consisted of questions regarding testimony that had been
made and was not an opportunity to someone else offering further statement into the record;
CITY OF PALM BEACH GARDENS REGULAR MEETING, 8/5/04 7
and Mr. DeFrancesco was free to ask questions about Ms. Irwin’s testimony but must ask in
the form of a question and give her time to respond. Mr. DeFrancesco stated the surrounding
built environment of the subject site infill parcel is 65.8% residential, and asked if that
number was correct and how it had been determined. Ms. Irwin responded it was correct and
had been determined in linear feet of the perimeter of the site and that Shady Lakes was
included in that number. Mr. DeFrancesco stated in statement prior, the residential
developments directly adjacent to the subject site are Garden Lakes and Gardens of
Woodberry and why was Shady Lakes not included in that one. Ms. Irwin stated it was
included in her evaluation. Mr. DeFrancesco stated the subject site has been designated as to
provide a roadway link from Shady Lakes Drive to Garden Lakes Boulevard, which provides
these residential developments access without having to access PGA Boulevard as currently
required. These roadway links provide for horizontal integration. Are these, in fact, roadway
links? Ms. Irwin responded these are internal roadways to the development; they link, or give
the ability to travel from Shady Lakes Drive through the development to the Garden Square
Shoppes and to Garden Lakes Boulevard and that was the link she was talking about. Mr.
DeFrancesco asked if this was the standard type link provided to give access between two
points. Ms. Irwin explained the developer was providing the link through the development
and this was not a City roadway. Mr. DeFrancesco asked if this roadway could then be
considered for horizontal integration if it was not a City roadway. Ms. Irwin explained it was
a link but not a City roadway. Mr. DeFrancesco indicated this roadway had four 90-degree
bends, seven stop signs, various openings for parking lots, and asked if that was considered a
viable roadway to satisfy horizontal integration. Ms. Irwin responded the project as designed
promoted integration between the adjacent sites, and since the development did not contain
City roadways she did not understand his question as it related to the staff report. Mr.
DeFrancesco stated he did not understand how this link could possibly be considered
horizontal integration when it was so convoluted. Attorney Royce objected that Mr.
DeFrancesco was being argumentative by asking the same question over and over. Mayor
Jablin asked Mr. DeFrancesco to move on to the next question. Mr. DeFrancesco reported a
table in the staff report contained acreages and showed 47.1 1 acres while a similar document
presented tonight showed 38.94 acres; and asked if the omitted portion was commercial or
open space. Mr. Irwin’s response was the table in the staff report was correct, and the portion
was open space. Mr. DeFrancesco referred to the environmental assessment requiring 25%
on-site mitigation or 2.37 acres; and asked where in the staff report it referred to wetlands.
Ms. Irwin responded wetlands were not in the report but were handled by a separate agency
that reviewed wetlands for the site. Mr. DeFrancesco asked how the mitigation was being
handled and if there would be buildings where there were wetlands. City Attorney Tatum
reminded Mr. DeFrancesco his questions must be limited to Ms. Irwin’s testimony or what
was in her report and she had just testified it wasn’t in her report. Attorney Royce objected to
Mr. DeFrancesco reading from the staff report and not asking a question. Mr. DeFrancesco
asked if this applicant had put 50% of the required acreage on site; Ms. Irwin responded that
with this approval they were putting 100% on site. Mr. DeFrancesco indicated one reason
given for allowing smaller parking spaces and smaller aisle ways was additional open space
and would the open space remain. Ms. Irwin answered the question and explained the
additional open space was provided for the limited amount of parking they were reducing and
was not required for spaces in the parking garage.
CITY OF PALM BEACH GARDENS REGULAR MEETING, 8/5/04 8
Mr. DeFrancesco stated land use in the comprehensive plan was listed for non-residential
mixed use. Attorney Tatum advised Mr. DeFrancesco he must ask questions or she was going
to advise the City Council to end the cross examination. Mr. DeFrancesco asked if residential
land use was listed in the comprehensive plan for nonresidential MXD. Ms. Irwin stated land
use for the site was mixed use. Mr. DeFrancesco asked if in the comprehensive plan and
LDR, the land use of residential was allowed in nonresidential MXD. Attorney Royce
objected that Ms. Irwin had answered the question several times and explained it. Mr.
DeFrancesco stated in the comprehensive plan there was no land use for residential and how
was the height of 4 stories determined, to which Ms. Irwin responded under the land use
allocation for industrial and all except professional, the height was limited to 4 floors. Mr.
DeFrancesco asked how the residential intensities were determined from the use of the
comprehensive plan in nonresidential mixed use. Ms. Irwin responded the densities and
intensities were limited to those allowed through the comprehensive plan and the LDR’s for
the Forbearance Agreement, which was used since it was more strict. Mr. DeFrancesco asked
where she got the measurements for nonresidential MXD for residential. Ms. Irwin stated she
had answered the question. Mr. DeFrancesco thanked Ms. Irwin for her time. Mayor Jablin
stated he would like to move on with Resolution 92,2004 and hearing no further comments
from the public, declared the public hearing closed. Councilmember Levy moved to approve
Resolution 92, 2004 including the amendments. Councilmember Delgado seconded the
motion, which carried by unanimous 3-0 vote. Attorney Royce thanked staff for their work
on this project and for the Mayor’s comments regarding Mr. Brandt. Following a short break
the meeting was reconvened.

introduced Patrick Dillon, President of Bonded Lightning Protection, who answered
questions from the Council. Charles Wu presented the staff objections. Dodi Glas spoke on
behalf of the petitioner. Mayor Jablin stated that going forward, lightening rod systems would
be inspected before becoming a situation like this again and admonished the petitioner for
having done this without staffs okay, and stated he did not want this to set a precedent, but
did not want the petitioner to have to rip out this entire system.
Compensation of Council Members - Mayor Jablin reported the Council had decided to
increase the compensation for Councilmembers and to provide for periodic increases in the
future so that eleven years would not go by again without a raise. Mayor Jablin indicated he
still favored his original suggestion of $22,000 for Councilmembers and $25,000 for the
Mayor, and had calculated the time each person spent doing this job. Mayor Jablin felt
$20,000 should be the floor amount. Councilmember Delgado favored a $2,000 difference
between the council and Mayor and suggested $22,000/$24,000. Councilmember Levy
compared this job to the County Commissioners’ salaries at $80,000, although
CITY OF PALM BEACH GARDENS REGULAR MEETING, 8/5/04 10
Councilmember Delgado stated they really received approximately $140,000, estimating if a
Councilmember did the absolute minimum that it would be a quarter of a full-time position,
and came up with a minimum of $20,000 for each Councilmember and 10% more, or
$22,000, for the Mayor. Councilmember Levy stated he was willing to compromise.
Councilmember Delgado explained she favored $22,000/$24,000 based on the chart provided
by staff which showed salaries paid by other municipalities. Mayor Jablin proposed whatever
decided would be presented in an ordinance on the 1 gth for first public hearing, starting with
$22,000/$24,000, including COLA and the ability to purchase insurance up to age 65.
Consensus was to have staff prepare the ordinance.

August 18,2004
The August 18, 2004 Special Meeting of the City Council of the City of Palm Beach
Gardens, Florida, was called to order at 4:37 P.M. in the Council Chambers ofthe Municipal
Complex, located at 10500 North Military Trail, Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, and opened
with the pledge of allegiance.
ROLL CALL: The City Clerk called the roll and the following elected officials were found
to be in attendance: Mayor Jablin, Vice Mayor Russo, and Councilmember Delgado.
Councilmember Levy arrived at 4:39 p.m.
ITEMS FOR COUNCIL ACTION/DISCUSSION:
Scripps - Mayor Jablin announced that at the previous day’s County Commission meeting
there had been several misstatements regarding Scripps, and this meeting had been called to
set the record straight. Natalie Wong, Senior Project Coordinator, Assistant to the City
Manager, provided a presentation dealing with statements made at the County Commission
meeting that misrepresented the facts. A former master plan known as the Fagan Plan had
been stated to be better because it did not include biotech on the Vavrus property, so there
would be no competition between the County and the City; and that it was less dense in
residential. Ms. Wong presented the Fagan Plan, which included both sites, and on Mecca
there was a large amount of biotech use and there were no specific intensities, however, the
plan showed uses including residential and commercial, town center, school, civic and
community. This plan had been developed as a concept plan and no traffic analysis was done,
no economic analysis, no housing methodology, no allocation of residential units, no detailed
environmental analysis, no input from the City or master developer, and no joint planning
effort between the City and the County. The City had later gotten involved with the County,
and joint planning meetings took place. One of the first joint planning activities had been to
allocate intensities for both the County and City. A memo had been written by the City dated
February 23, 2004, specifying initial proposed intensities of 6.4 million square feet of
research and development. In March, the City revised those numbers, reducing proposed
research and development to 2 million square feet, which was further reduced to allocate 1.8
million square feet of research and development to accommodate the County’s wishes to
minimize competition for biotech uses. Initial proposed residential of 3,000 units was
increased to 7,500, the current amount. This increase had been a direct result of working with
the reviewing agencies and the County and FDOT on an accepted traffic methodology to
capture the highest amount of trips to maximize the sustainable community concept. Ms.
Wong reported there had been negative tones associated with the proposed density on the
Vavrus parcel. Several Commissioners had alluded to housing being too dense. Ms. Wong
stated that housing is important and even with the 7,500 units plus the 2,000 units on the
Mecca piece, it was not enough to meet the demand because of the high number of
employees that would be generated by the research and development square footage, and
there would be a deficit of over 13,000 units. Ms. Wong reviewed a chart illustrating this
housing deficit in both the City DRI and County DRI, and a newspaper article from the Palm
Beach Post which indicated the Treasure Coast Regional Planning Council’s staff report had
contained criticism of the inadequate housing but had overlooked the County’s plan to
develop housing on the Vavrus property. The County had recommended that the sentence in
the report reading “the plan is short on housing” be changed to state “the plan appears short
CITY OF PALM BEACH GARDENS REGULAR MEETING, 8/18/04 2
on housing but is being designed with a residential heavy project on the Vavrus parcel,
easing the problem. Lower the requirements for affordable housing from 2250 units to 400.’’
Ms. Wong indicated this was being provided to show the County had endorsed the provision
of including housing on the City’s plan. Ms. Wong noted she would not read every comment
verbatim, but explained that there were specific mitigation conditions developed with County
and City staff to provide mitigation conditions for the CRALLS the City requested in June.
The mitigation conditions presented dealt with affordable housing, although the total
mitigation conditions dealt with a number of things. The reason for showing the affordable
housing conditions was to illustrate that there was no way the County would have moved
forward with these mitigation conditions unless they had recognized the specific number of
units, 7,500, that the City was proposing. Mitigation conditions were described. Ms. Wong
then addressed the question of why research and development had decreased-through joint
planning the City had decreased it because of the County’s concern for competition; and in
addition, as part of the mitigations for the CRALLS, the City and the County agreed to
include a specific provision that Vavrus North shall maintain the same mixture of uses as set
forth in the DRI, May, 2004. Additionally, for the first ten years after the Vavrus North DO,
the building permits for the R&D square footage of Vavrus North shall not exceed 50% of
the permitted Mecca R&D square footage. This addressed the County’s concern regarding
competition. The next statement by the Board of County Commissioners was the City did not
want to modify the plan to address the County’s need and had been uncooperative in the
planning process. Ms. Wong reinforced that there had been continuing joint planning efforts
with the County and affected agencies, and provided meeting dates, who had attended, and
what had been discussed, documenting over 25 meetings ofjoint planning efforts. Ms. Wong
reported there had been a philosophical tone present in many of the County Commissioners’
comments, describing the Mecca versus Vavrus projects as competitive. The City’s response
was the two combined created an overall village. The City had researched economic clusters,
studied current growth management principles and economic development principles, and
collected research on existing parks. The City also talked to Scripps and asked what they
wanted, which was a village encompassing all these elements. The conclusion was that 500
acres referred to yesterday by the County Commission was not enough; biotech users do not
like high-rise buildings. The grant agreement between Scripps and the County stated the
County shall use its best effort to enter into an agreement with the City of Palm Beach
Gardens relating to the development of the Vavrus site. Another comment by Commissioners
was that Vavrus would cost the taxpayers of this County $100 million or more if the Mecca
property was developed by itself. Ms. Wong responded if another developer was coming on
board being paid for by non-taxpayers, there would be a significant shared cost of
infrastructure, and this was an unfounded statement, Mecca alone would require taxpayer
money for infrastructure. Ms. Wong summarized that the current plan was a result of
research and analysis including housing, economic, traffic, and site conditions,
environmental assessments, etc., and represented joint planning efforts between City staff
and County staff. The City had been cooperating and was working on the project to create a
world-class economic engine. The City had lowered R&D and increased residential
intensities at the County’s request. County staff had represented that the current intensities in
the City’s plan should remain, and both DRI’s combined would provide the village, and the
cost would decrease because the infrastructure cost would be shared by both projects.
Councilmember Levy asked if information on other parks had been provided to the County
CITY OF PALM BEACH GARDENS REGULAR MEETING, 8/18/04 3
and if they had provided any information to the City, to which Ms. Wong responded County
staff had been cooperating with the City and sharing information with the City. Vice Mayor
Russo expressed disappointment with the comments made at the County Commissioners
meeting, and stated the City never selected the location for Scripps but said they would do
whatever they could to make it work to have Scripps in Palm Beach County. This was done
and then yesterday he had heard the plan failed because of the City’s lack of cooperation.
Vice Mayor Russo expressed frustration and concern that if the Brigger tract was selected
they wanted the whole thing there but that was entirely within the City and it was not fair to
residents to give control of some of their land to someone else. The Vice Mayor indicated he
was willing to cooperate but the first thing needed was for the City to request a joint meeting
between the City Council and the County Commission for them to get back on the same
page. Scripps was far too important for the City to sit back and let emotion get involved.
Councilmember Delgado expressed her frustration also, and strongly urged the report
presented tonight be shared with Dr. Lerner and Doug Bingham, legal counsel for Scripps, so
that they could be fully informed, and made a motion to set up a joint meeting with the
County Commission. Mayor Jablin indicated a motion was not necessary and there was
consensus of the Council; and reported for the record that Councilmember Levy had arrived
at 4:39 p.m. and was a part of this discussion. Mayor Jablin advised all of the information
would be sent to Scripps and the County, including the following prepared statement: The
City of Palm Beach Gardens has continued to cooperate with Palm Beach County and the
Scripps Research Institute to provide a home in this County for the Scripps Research
Institute. In response to some of the County Commissioners ’ disparaging comments about
the City of Palm Beach Gardens, this City is not the reason the County Commission is
reconsidering their position regarding site selection for the Scripps Research Institute. City
staffhas responded to Palm Beach County and the Department of Transportation’s request
to increase the number of residential units from 3,000 to 7,500 on the Vavrus site. The
residential increase was to help the County reduce the number of trips anticipated by the
Mecca development to comply with their traffic performance standards ordinance. The
biotech square footage for the site was reduced from 6.4 to 1.8 million square feet dedicated
to research and development in order to compliment the development of the Mecca site at the
County’s request. The Mecca and Vavrus site plans were developed through a joint planning
effort with the County’s consultants and City stafl The fact that certain County
Commissioners are not informed, are ill-informed, or politically motivated to find someone
else to blame for their own lack of due diligence is indeed unfortunate. The City of Palm
Beach Gardens has fully cooperated with the County in regards to the Scripps Research
Institute project over the last ten months. Although the County has requested complete
control over the development and permitting of any alternative site selected for the Scripps
project, the City of Palm Beach Gardens has afiduciary responsibility to its residents to act
in their best interests. The City has consistently worked with the County on all levels of the
Scripps development project to maximize the potential of the Mecca site. We have invested
both time and money in the development of the Mecca and Vavrus sites. However, should
Scripps Research Institute decide to develop the alternative location on the Brigger tract, the
City of Palm Beach Gardens stands ready to cooperate and work with the County in the
development of their chosen site, while protecting our citizens ’ tax dollars and their quality
of life today and in the future. Until Scripps Research Institute makes theirJina1 decision, the
CITY OF PALM BEACH GARDENS REGULAR MEETING, 8/18/04 4
City of Palm Beach Gardens cannot comment on the favorability of either of the alternative
sites. Vice Mayor Russo requested addition of a statement that the City offered to meet with
the County Commission in an effort to resolve some of these issues and move forward. There
was consensus from the Council. Mayor Jablin announced after adjournment of the meeting,
questions would be taken from the press.

Resolution: 198,2004
0 BACKGROUND: Hurricane Frances has impacted the ability of the City to
conduct the special Run-Off election scheduled for September 14, 2004. At
lease one city polling place is unusable. The voting machines have not yet
been picked up by the Supervisor of Elections Office for recalibration, and it
is not feasible that this would be accomplished by September 14, 2004.
Numerous poll workers are still without power or telephone service and
cannot be reached to confirm their attendance on Election Day.
Rescheduling until the general election on November 2,2004 will result in a
savings of approximately $30,000 to the City.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of Resolution
198,2004.

Additionally, with major power outages and lack of phone service
throughout the City, it is not possible to make contact witb the 115 poll
workers. Additionally, the voting equipment has not yet been picked up by
the SOE to be recalibrated in time for a September 14'h run-off election.
There are several constraints with regard to rescheduling the election. It is
likely that the voting machines will not be available for use by the City due to
the L & A testing that must be performed by the SOE in preparation for the
November 20d General Election. As a result, it would then become necessary
for the City to design and utilize an alternative voting method such as paper
ballots. Rescheduling the run-off election to November 20d will eliminate the
need to use an alternative voting method and will save approximately
%3O,OOO, which could be better used toward the disaster recovery process
caused by Hurricane Frances.
The City has incurred a cost of $3,200.00. $2,200.00 for the required
publication of election notices in the Palm Beach Post and $1,OOO.00 for the
required publication of the election notices in LaPalma, which is the Spanish
version required by law.

cost of $650.00. Individual notices were also mailed to adjoining property owners. On
