Jan 13, 2022 City Council

[Items I & II]

[00:00:06]

I'D LIKE TO CALL THIS MEETING TO ORDER WHERE YOU ALL PLEASE RISE AND JOIN IN THE PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE TO THE FLAG OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA AND THE REPUBLIC, FOR WHICH UNDER GOD, INDIVISIBLE WITH LIBERTY AND JUSTICE FOR ALL.

WILL THE CLERK PLEASE CALL THE ROLL MAYOR LITT HERE, VICE MAYOR REED COUNCIL MEMBER WOODS, COUNCIL MEMBER MARCIANO, YOU'RE COUNCIL MEMBER TINSLEY HERE.

ARE THERE ANY ADDITIONS, DELETIONS OR MODIFICATIONS THIS EVENING? NO, MA'AM. NEXT, WE'LL MOVE ON TO ANNOUNCEMENTS AND PRESENTATIONS.

[IV. ANNOUNCEMENTS / PRESENTATIONS]

PLEASE COME TO THE PODIUM.

YOU COMPLETE SORRY ABOUT THAT.

THREE STILL REMAIN TO BE COMPLETE, ALL THOSE ARE IN THE NORTHERN END OF THE COUNTY COUNTY LINE ROAD, TEQUESTA DRIVE IN RIVERSIDE DRIVE.

THOSE ARE ANTICIPATED TO BE COMPLETE WITHIN THE NEXT COUPLE OF MONTHS.

THEY'RE STILL TWO BRIDGES THAT ARE STILL WORKING ON ONE.

AS OUR BRIDGE ON ERMAN, THEY'RE COMPLETING SOME STRUCTURAL STUFF ON THE ERMAN THAT SHOULD BE COMPLETE BY THE BY JUNE.

IN THE ONE THAT'S GOING OVER THE INTERCOASTAL WATERWAY AND JUPITER, THAT'S STILL GOING TO TAKE SOME TIME. SO THEY'RE STILL WORKING ON THAT PARTICULAR BRIDGE.

SO HOW DO WE ESTABLISH A QUIET ZONE? AGAIN, WE'RE GOING TO LOOK FOR THE WHOLE CORRIDOR BETWEEN 23RD STREET IN WEST PALM BEACH, ALL THE WAY NORTH TO THE COUNTY LINE ROAD.

SO ALL THESE CROSSINGS WILL BE INCLUDED IN THE ENTIRE QUIET ZONE CORRIDOR, SO IT'S GOING TO BE A LOT OF COORDINATION BETWEEN US, RIVIERA BEACH, LAKE PARK, JUPITER, TEQUESTA, EVERYBODY ALONG THIS CORRIDOR HAS TO SUBMIT TOGETHER.

BUT AS A MUNICIPALITY, WE ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL RAIL ROAD CROSSINGS WITHIN OUR MUNICIPALITY TO SUBMIT TO THE FEDERAL RAIL ADMINISTRATION.

SO REGARDLESS OF OWNERSHIP, SO WE HAVE THREE IN OUR JURISDICTIONAL BOUNDARY THAT WE HAVE THE RAIL ON AS WELL AS THE COUNTY HAS THREE.

SO THERE ARE SIX TOTAL.

WE HAVE THREE IN THE IN THE COUNTY HAS THREE.

WE'LL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL SIX IN THIS SUBMITTAL.

WHAT WE HAVE TO DO IS WE HAVE TO EVALUATE EACH CROSSING, PUT IT INTO A QUIET ZONE CALCULATOR. AND AGAIN, THOSE ARE ALL WORKED TOGETHER AND IT'S STRETCHED OUT TO THIS WHOLE CORRIDOR. SO WE DON'T HAVE TO MEET ALL OF THE REQUIREMENTS AT EVERY CROSSING.

BUT TOGETHER, AS A GROUP, WE HAVE TO MEET A SUBSTANTIAL AMOUNT TO ACHIEVE THE QUIET ZONE.

SO IT'S A BIG EFFORT BETWEEN ALL THE MUNICIPALITIES AND EVERYTHING.

THE TPA IS LEADING THIS CHARGE.

SO IF WE FIND THAT ANY OF OUR CROSSINGS ARE DEFICIENT AND WE HAVE TO INSTALL A NEW SUPPLEMENTAL SAFETY MEASURES TO MEET THE QUIET ZONE THAT IS GOING TO BE ON US.

HOWEVER, THE GOOD NEWS IS THE TPA HAS FUNDED AND WILL PAY FOR ALL THOSE ALONG THIS CORRIDOR, SO THERE'LL BE NO ADDITIONAL FUNDING FROM WHAT WE HAVE.

WE WILL HAVE TO DO TO ESTABLISH THIS QUIET ZONE.

WE, WHEN WE WENT THROUGH THE PROCESS ALREADY TO HAVE THE DOUBLE TRACKING PUT THROUGH OUR CITY, WE WORKED WITH WITH BRIGHT LINES AND WE WORK WITH THE TPA TO INSTALL MOST OF THE QUIET ZONE. MOST OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE QUIET ZONES ALREADY.

SO WE DID A FIELD ANALYSIS.

SO ONE BIG THING I FORGOT TO MENTION, AND I ALWAYS GOT TO MENTION THAT ANY GIVEN TIME.

THE CONDUCTOR OF THE TRAIN HAS THE OPTION TO BLOW THE HORN, NO MATTER HOW THE QUIET ZONE IS, IF HE FEELS IT NECESSARY TO BLOW THE HORN.

HE HAS THAT OPTION AND WE CAN'T STOP.

THAT QUIET ZONE WILL OBVIOUSLY BE ESTABLISHED AND YOU'RE GOING TO HEAR THIS EVERYWHERE THAT STILL, NO MATTER WHAT YOU DO, IF THEY FEEL IT'S UNSAFE OR THERE'S A REQUIREMENT THAT THEY HAVE TO BLOW A HORN, THEY WILL BLOW THE HORN.

SO AGAIN, THESE ARE CROSSINGS NOW THERE IS WHEN WE MET WITH THE FAA OR THE FRA, THEY SAID WE MAY HAVE TO PICK UP RICHARD ROAD BECAUSE THAT'S SORT OF AN NOMADLAND'S LAKE PARK IS GOING TO TAKE NORTH LAKE BOULEVARD, SO WE MAY HAVE TO PICK UP RICHARD ROAD IN JUPITER MAY TAKE DONALD ROSS. SO WE'RE JUST WORKING INTO THOSE SEMANTICS RIGHT NOW, BUT MOST LIKELY, WE'LL BE DOING SIX.

WE CONDUCTED AN AUDIT ON JANUARY 5TH WHEN WE WALKED EACH ONE OF OUR.

CROSSINGS TO LOOK AT WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE AND WE'LL GO OVER EACH ONE OF THOSE.

SO DONALD ROSS ROAD HAD A FOUR QUADRANT SYSTEM IN THE FOUR QUADRANT SYSTEM HAS GATES ON BOTH SIDES, SO NOT FOR INCOMING TRAFFIC.

[00:05:01]

SO DONALD ROSS WAS BUILT WITH THE FORECOURT AND GATE SYSTEM MOVING DOWN TO HOOD ROAD.

HOOD ROAD DID NOT HAVE A FOUR QUADRANT GATE SYSTEM, SO ALL'S WE NEED TO DO HERE IS TAKE A SMALL PAD GATE, EXTEND THE ARM ON IT.

THEN WE HAVE A FOUR QUADRANT GATE SYSTEM.

WE HAVE TO ADD SOME ADDITIONAL SIGNAGE AND WE'RE GOING TO REMOVE SOME REDUNDANT SYSTEMS. IF YOU SEE THIS PED GATE HERE, IT DOESN'T NEED TO BE IN PLACE.

SINCE WE'RE PAYING FOR SOME OF THESE CROSSINGS, WE DON'T WANT TO PAY FOR THESE THINGS EVERY YEAR, SO WE'LL REMOVE ANY REDUNDANT SYSTEM OUT OF OUT OF THE AREA THAT WE SEE.

RCA BOULEVARD.

ADDITIONAL SIGNS ARE ALL GOING TO REQUIRE ADDITIONAL SIGNAGE, AND WE'VE GOT TO TAKE THIS PET GATE AND MOVE IT OVER A LITTLE BIT AND THEN EXTEND THE ARM, AND THAT WILL CREATE A FOUR QUADRANT GATE SYSTEM THERE.

AGAIN, MOST OF THE COMPONENTS ARE IN PLACE.

IT'S JUST MOVING AND ADDING SOME MINOR ISSUES TO IT.

SAME THING WITH BURNS ROAD, WE NEED TO REMOVE THE PET GATE ARM AND JUST EXTEND A LONGER ARM OUT THERE.

WE'RE GOING TO REMOVE A REDUNDANT PET GATE AND WE'VE GOT TO ADD SOME SIGNAGE.

AND THEN OUR LAST ONE IS LIGHTHOUSE DRIVE, AND THAT'S JUST ADDITIONAL SIGHTINGS, AND WE'RE GOING TO REMOVE A REDUNDANT GATE IN THAT CROSSING.

SO THOSE ARE OUR SUPPLEMENTAL SAFETY MEASURES WHEN WE WALK WITH THE RAIL ADMINISTRATION AND WE WALK WITH THE TPA THAT NEED TO BE ACHIEVED IN OUR AREA.

SO NOW WE CAN PUT THIS INTO THE QUIET ZONE CALCULATOR AND GET READY TO SUBMIT TO THE TO THE FEDERAL RAIL ADMINISTRATION FOR A QUIET ZONE.

A LITTLE UPDATE ON ALL ABOARD FLORIDA, THESE ARE NOT MY DATES, THESE ARE WHAT'S BEEN POSTED AND WHAT I RECEIVED.

THEY HAVEN'T HIT A LOT OF DATES LATELY.

SO THESE I'M GOING TO GIVE YOU WHAT I KNOW TO DATE.

SO THE CONSTRUCTION IS DUE TO BE COMPLETED DECEMBER TWENTY TWENTY TWO TO ORLANDO.

TESTS WILL BEGIN JANUARY 17TH, AND THEY'RE GOING TO START RUNNING TRAINS ONCE A DAY, ROUGHLY BETWEEN 50 AND 80 MILES PER HOUR, DEPENDING ON WHERE THEY ARE.

RIGHT NOW, THEY'RE GOING TO RUN FROM 23RD TO WHERE THEY CAN TO IN JUPITER, AND THEN EVENTUALLY THEY'LL START RUNNING THROUGH TEQUESTA.

EVENTUALLY, THEY'LL START RUNNING NORTH AS FAR AS THEY CAN, AS THESE THINGS GET COMPLETED. THEY ANTICIPATE TO BE FULL OPERATIONAL AND RUNNING ACTUAL PEOPLE.

JANUARY OF TWENTY TWENTY TWO, TWENTY THREE OR TWENTY TWENTY THREE.

SO WHERE DOES THAT PUT US WITH OUR QUIET ZONE, SO WE'RE RIGHT NOW, WE'RE ORGANIZING WITH ALL THE MUNICIPALITIES INTO THE TPA, WE'RE IDENTIFYING WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE.

WE'RE GOING TO COMPLETE THOSE ADDITIONAL SUPPLEMENT AND SAFETY MEASURES, AND WE'RE GOING TO APPLY WHAT'S CALLED A NOTICE OF INTENT TO ESTABLISH A QUIET ZONE BY NOVEMBER OF TWENTY TWENTY TWO OF THIS YEAR WILL APPLY THAT NOTICE OF INTENT THAT WE DO INTEND TO ESTABLISH A QUIET ZONE. THEY'LL COME OUT AND DO ALL THEIR CHECKS TO MAKE SURE ALL THE EVERYTHING IS WHAT THEY SAY THEY ARE.

THEN, IN MARCH OF TWENTY TWENTY THREE, WE WILL DO A NOTICE OF ESTABLISHMENT OF THE QUIET ZONE TO THE FEDERAL RAIL ADMINISTRATION.

AND BY THAT TIME, THE QUIET ZONE SHOULD BE ESTABLISHED FROM 23RD STREET TO TEQUESTA.

AND THESE ARE ALL TENTATIVE DATES AGAIN.

BUT THAT'S THE INFORMATION THAT WE HAVE THROUGH THE TPA, THROUGH THE RAIL ADMINISTRATION AND THROUGH BRIGHT LIGHTS.

THEN AGAIN, THEY CAN BLOW THEIR HORNS AT THEIR DISCRETION IF THEY FIND IT NECESSARY.

ANY QUESTIONS? I HAVE A QUESTION.

THAT'S OK, MADAM MAYOR.

SO I THINK WE'VE BEEN TALKING ABOUT THIS FOR TEN YEARS.

I STARTED HERE IN 2003 AND IT WAS ONE OF MY FIRST TASKS IS TO ESTABLISH A QUIET ZONE.

YES, APPARENTLY I'M NOT VERY GOOD AT IT.

AND SO NONE.

AND WE'RE STILL HERE TALKING ABOUT IT.

SO I'M SO HAPPY THAT IT IS.

WE'RE COMING. IT'S COMING TO FRUITION FINALLY.

FIRST IS, IS THIS GOING TO BE ON OUR WEBSITE SO PEOPLE CAN REFER TO THIS LITTLE THESE GRAPHICS? I THINK THAT WOULD BE HELPFUL.

YES, WE'LL HAVE IT POSTED ON THE WEBSITE.

AWESOME. THAT WOULD BE GREAT.

AND FROM I THINK WE CAN CONTINUE UPDATING IT AS WE HAVE INFORMATION BECAUSE IT SEEMS LIKE NO MATTER WHERE WE SPEAK, NO MATTER WHO IT IS, EVERY TIME WE GET UP TO TALK, WHETHER IT'S AT A FUNCTION OR A CAMPAIGN THING OR WHATEVER.

EVERYONE ALWAYS ASKS US ABOUT QUIET ZONES, ESPECIALLY IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD, EVERY HOA MEETING MEETING THAT I GO TO, EVEN IF I'M IN THE AUDIENCE.

THEY ASK ME TO GET UP AND SPEAK ABOUT QUIET ZONE, SO I REALLY APPRECIATE THIS AND ANY INFORMATION GREATLY APPRECIATED.

YEAH. IF YOU COULD SEE THAT I GET THE THE POWERPOINT VERSION TO TO ADD TO A PROGRAM I HAVE TO GIVE, I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE THE SLIDES IN THERE TOO.

SO. OK, THANK YOU.

QUESTION. SO YOU SAID THE TPA IS GOING TO PAY FOR ANY ADDITIONAL UPGRADES THAT WILL EACH CROSSING WILL HAVE TO GO THROUGH.

WHAT ABOUT THE APPLICATION ITSELF? IS THERE A COST TO THAT AS WELL?

[00:10:02]

SO FOR THIS PROCESS, WHEN WE WHEN WE WENT THROUGH WITH THEIR PLANS, WE ADDED A LOT OF THOSE SAFETY MEASURES IN THE ORIGINAL SET OF PLANS WHEN THEY WENT TO DOUBLE TRACK.

LIGHTHOUSE BURNS AND KYOTO ARE SO WE PAY FOR THE ADDITIONAL IMPROVEMENT, SO THAT IS AN ONGOING EXPENSE TO PAY FOR THOSE IMPROVEMENTS.

I DO NOT KNOW WHETHER THE TPA IS GOING TO PAY THE APPLICATION FEE OR NOT.

I WILL GET THAT INFORMATION BACK.

BUT LIKE I SAID, WE'RE RESPONSIBLE FOR OUR AREA, BUT IT'S GOING TO GO TOGETHER AS A PACKAGE FOR EVERYTHING THE TPA HAS ALREADY OFFERED TO DO THAT THEY'VE PAID FOR THE ORIGINAL SAFETY MEASURES WHEN WHEN BRIGHT LINES CAME THROUGH, SO THEY FUNDED LIKE 25 MILLION FOR THOSE, THEY'RE GOING TO FUND THE REST OF IT.

SO I'LL GET BACK TO THE ON THE ON THE APPLICATION FEE.

THANK YOU. BUT THEY'RE NOT PAYING FOR SAFTA.

THERE'S A LOT OF STAFF TIME THAT GOES INTO THIS THAT, YOU KNOW, OBVIOUSLY THAT'S OUR TIME. SURE. WELL, THE COUNTY PAY FOR THEIR THREE, EVEN THOUGH WE'RE SUBMITTING THE SIX, THEY THEY'RE NOT GOING TO PAY FOR THE THE ADDITIONAL STUFF THAT NEEDS TO BE DONE.

BUT NEITHER ARE WE.

BUT BECAUSE WE'RE THE MUNICIPALITY THAT REPRESENTS THE AREA, WE HAVE TO INCLUDE ALL SIX HOURS. SO IT'S BECAUSE THE TPA IS PAYING FOR IT.

IT'S NOT REALLY A FIGHT ON THAT.

ALL RIGHT. ANYBODY ELSE? THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT.

THANKS, TODD. ALL RIGHT.

NEXT IS COMMENTS FROM THE PUBLIC FOR ITEMS NOT ON THE AGENDA.

[V. COMMENTS FROM THE PUBLIC]

WOULD RAMONA BEAN APPROACH THE PODIUM AND STATE YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS FOR THE RECORD, PLEASE? MY NAME IS RAMONA, BEEN LIVE AT 54 TO 39, SKATE AWAY AND PALM BEACH GARDENS.

GOOD EVENING, MAYOR LITT AND CITY COUNCIL AND CITY STAFF FIRST.

IT'S TWOFOLD TONIGHT MY COMMENTS.

I JUST WANT TO SAY THANK YOU.

I KNOW. I SAY THANK YOU A LOT TO YOU GUYS, BUT THIS REALLY COMES FROM THE HEART, ESPECIALLY THE LAST FEW WEEKS THAT OUR COMMUNITY HAS BEEN THROUGH A LOT.

I JUST WANT TO SAY THANK YOU FOR HELPING US GAIN MORE ACCESS AND INFORMATION TO COVID TESTING HAVE HAD A LOT OF FRIENDS AND FAMILY DEALING WITH ILLNESS IN THE LAST SEVERAL WEEKS, AND IT'S BEEN VERY HELPFUL AND VICE MAYOR REED HAS BEEN HELPFUL AS WELL.

JUST GETTING THAT INFORMATION OUT, DECIMATING IT.

SO HE'S BEEN HELPING US. I PERSONALLY ASSIST A LOT OF FAMILY AND FRIENDS WHO HAVE HAD ILLNESS OVER THE HOLIDAY SEASON AND IT WAS REALLY HELPFUL.

JUST KNOW THAT YOU GUYS HAD OUR BACK AND AND PROVIDED MORE TESTING IN.

AND IF WE CAN GET IT HERE IN THE GARDENS, WHERE ELSE WE COULD GO WHILE WE WERE MAKING SOUPS AND TEAS FOR LOVED ONES.

IT BRINGS ME TO MY SECOND COMMENT.

IT'S ACTUALLY A QUESTION I WAS TRYING TO LOOK AROUND BECAUSE SOME FOLKS HAD ASKED ABOUT.

OF COURSE, THE ONE OF THE BIGGEST COMPLAINTS I HEAR ABOUT BEING COVID POSITIVE IS BEING DEHYDRATED AND JUST NEEDING SOME STRENGTH.

SO SOME FOLKS WANTED TO FIND OUT WHERE THEY COULD GET THE.

I CAN NEVER SAY THIS WORD RIGHT, BUT IT'S MONOCLONAL ANTIBODIES AND I KNOW IT'S BEEN AVAILABLE TO OUR COUNTY AND OUR MEDICAL COUNTY MEDICAL OFFICER SAID IT'S AVAILABLE, BUT I DIDN'T KNOW IF OUR CITY CAN REQUEST MORE ACCESS THROUGH THE STATE OR FEDERAL ENTITIES TO SEE IF THAT CAN BE PROVIDED TO OUR CITY AGAIN, IT MIGHT BE A MOOT POINT.

I JUST HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO FIND THE INFORMATION TO HELP ANY LOVED ONES ABOUT IT.

SO I WAS JUST WONDERING IF THAT'S A POSSIBILITY, BUT OTHERWISE THANK YOU.

YOU GUYS ARE DOING A GREAT JOB AND HAPPY BELATED NEW YEAR.

SO THANK YOU.

QUICK ANSWER THE MEDICAL STAFF AT JUPITER WAS JUST NOTIFIED THAT JUPITER DOES HAVE THEM NOW, AND LOCAL PHYSICIANS WHO ARE ON STAFF CAN SEND THEIR PATIENTS.

NEXT, THE CITY MANAGERS REPORT RUN, I JUST WANT TO BRING TO EVERYONE'S ATTENTION, I THINK

OK. HELLO, GOOD EVENING.

SO NICE TO SEE YOU ALL AGAIN.

FOR THE RECORD, MY NAME IS GEORGE MS. WITH KOTLER AND HEARING HERE TONIGHT ON BEHALF OF THE APPLICANT AND PROPERTY OWNER AND I HAVE BEEN SWORN IN. SO WE'RE HERE TONIGHT TO TALK ABOUT THE FIRST RESOLUTION OF THE YEAR.

PANTHER NATIONAL POD 12.

IT'S OUR LAST RESIDENTIAL POD WITHIN PANTHER NATIONAL TO BE APPROVED.

YOU'RE FAMILIAR WITH OUR DEVELOPMENT TEAM.

THERE'S BEEN NO CHANGES THERE OTHER THAN YOU'RE AWARE THAT WE HAVE CLOSED.

CENTER HAS CLOSED ON THE PROPERTY, SO THEY ARE PROCESSING ALL THEIR OWN APPLICATIONS.

SO WE ARE REQUESTING APPROVAL FOR ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY NINE SINGLE FAMILY LOTS WITHIN ABOUT 70 ACRES OF THE OVERALL MASTER PLAN.

AS YOU'RE AWARE, WE HAVE HAD SEVERAL, SEVERAL RECENT APPROVALS, ONE FOR THE MASTER PLAN, THE GOLF COURSE SITE PLAN, AS WELL AS THE FIRST TWO RESIDENTIAL PATHS THAT YOU SAW FOR 13 AND 14. EVERYTHING YOU'LL SEE TONIGHT IS CONSISTENT WITH THAT MASTER PLAN.

WE DO HAVE ONE SMALL ADDENDUM TO OUR PATTERN BOOK.

IT'S AN ADDITION. NOTHING'S BEEN CHANGED.

WE'RE JUST ADDING SOME NEW INFORMATION SPECIFIC TO POD 12.

SCOTT HEDGE IS HERE TONIGHT, AND HE'LL TALK TO YOU ABOUT THAT A LITTLE BIT LATER.

SO YOU'RE FAMILIAR WITH THE LOCATION OR WITHIN THE NORTHWESTERN PORTION OF AVANIR, AND THERE'S BEEN NO CHANGE TO OUR TOTAL UNIT COUNT TO 18.

POD 12 IS LOCATED ON THE WESTERN PORTION OF THE COMMUNITY.

WE DO NOT HAVE ANY INTERNAL GATES ONCE YOU MAY MAKE IT PAST THE GUARD HOUSES, WHICH WERE PREVIOUSLY APPROVED WITH THE MASTER PLAN.

OUR LOTS ARE A STANDARD OF ABOUT 90 FEET WIDE, SO THEY'RE SLIGHTLY LARGER THAN MOST OF THE OTHER LOTS WITHIN AVENIR.

AND SO BECAUSE OF THAT, OUR SET BACKS ARE SLIGHTLY LARGER JUST BY A FEW FEET.

NOW, OUR NORTHERN BUFFER IS CONSISTENT WITH WHAT WAS APPROVED ON THE MASTER PLAN, AS WELL AS FOUR PODS 13 AND 14.

THIS IS WHAT FRONTS THE CONSERVATION AREA.

SO YOU'RE FAMILIAR.

WE HAVE OUR 40 FOOT BUFFER WITH THE 20 FOOT FIREBREAK, OUR SIX FOOT CONCRETE WALL LOCATED

[00:20:07]

SO WE'RE PROTECTING AND ALSO APPRECIATING THAT ENVIRONMENT.

AND SIMILARLY, ON THE SOUTHERN AND WESTERN SIDES, WE HAVE OUR IMPROVED LANDSCAPE OFFERED AS A TWENTY FIVE FOOT LANDSCAPE BUFFER ON THE PANTHER NATIONAL SIDE, AND THERE WOULD BE AN ADDITIONAL TWENTY FIVE FEET ON THE NEIGHBORING RESIDENTIAL PARCEL.

WE DO HAVE A STANDARD SIXTY FOUR FOOT RIGHT OF WAY WITHIN THE COMMUNITY, WHICH IS CONSISTENT WITH THE OTHER PODS, BUT WE DO HAVE SEVERAL AREAS WHERE WE'VE EXPANDED IT TO ABOUT A HUNDRED FEET TO PROVIDE LANDSCAPE MEDIANS, TO PROVIDE A BREAK FROM THAT LONG STRETCH OF ROAD AND REALLY EXPAND THE LANDSCAPE AREA, PROVIDING THAT THAT NATIVE PALETTE, WHICH REALLY MAKES SOMETHING SPECIAL AS YOU DRIVE IN THROUGH THE COMMUNITY.

WE DO HAVE ONE MAJOR INSTANCE OF BACK TO BACK LOTS.

OTHERWISE, THEY'RE ALL FRONTING EITHER THE PERIMETER, THE GOLF COURSE OR THE CONSERVATION AREA. AND SO IN THIS SCENARIO, WE HAVE DESIGNED A LANDSCAPED BERM FOR THAT AREA JUST TO PROVIDE, YOU KNOW, AS MUCH PRIVACY FOR THOSE LOTS.

THIS IS OUR STANDARD STREET CROSS SECTION.

WE DO HAVE SIDEWALKS ON BOTH SIDES OF THE STREET ON THE MAIN STRETCH.

WE DO. WE HAVE EXPANDED THE SIDEWALK ON THE EASTERN SIDE TO BE EIGHT FEET WIDE SO THAT GOLF CARTS WOULD BE ABLE TO GET ONTO THAT SECTION OF THE SIDEWALK TO GO BACK AND FORTH RATHER THAN BEING IN THE ROAD LIKE THEY WOULD BE IN OTHER PORTIONS OF THE COMMUNITY.

THIS TOP CROSS SECTION IS OUR EXPANDED RIGHT OF WAY WHERE YOU CAN SEE THAT WIDE LANDSCAPE MEDIAN IN THE MIDDLE AND YOU CAN SEE THE EIGHT FOOT SIDEWALK ON THE RIGHT HAND SIDE AND THEN BOTTOM CROSS SECTION IS THAT LANDSCAPED BERM AREA BETWEEN THOSE BACK TO BACK LOTS.

YOU CAN SEE IT'S VERY DENSE, REALLY WELL DONE WITH, AGAIN, THAT NATIVE PALLET, WHICH IS CONSISTENT THROUGHOUT THE COMMUNITY.

LIGHT, THE LIGHT FIXTURES ARE ALL VERY CONSISTENT WITH WHAT YOU'VE SEEN SO FAR, THERE'S BEEN NO CHANGES THERE.

AND HERE ARE SOME OF THOSE RENDERINGS, AGAIN, SHOWING THAT NATIVE LANDSCAPING AND WHAT IT WOULD FEEL LIKE DRIVING DOWN THAT ROAD AS YOU COME INTO PORT 12.

WE DO HAVE TO MAIL KIOSKS LOCATED WITHIN PART 12.

WE SEPARATED THEM NORTH AND SOUTH JUST TO PROVIDE MORE CONVENIENT ACCESS FOR THE COMMUNITY MEMBERS THAT ARE LOCATED CLOSER.

THEY DON'T HAVE TO COME FROM ONE END ALL THE WAY TO THE OTHER TO GET THEIR MAIL.

AND THIS IS CONSISTENT WITH WHAT YOU'VE SEEN PREVIOUSLY FOR PODS 13 AND 14.

AND THAT BRINGS US TO OUR PATTERN BOOK ADDENDUM AND SCOTT HODGE WILL WALK YOU THROUGH.

GOOD EVENING, CITY COUNCIL, EXCUSE ME, SCOTT HEDGE FOR PANTHER NATIONAL HAD BEEN SWORN IN. THANK YOU FOR TAKING THE OPPORTUNITY FOR US TO PRESENT THE PANTHER NATIONAL 12, AND I JUST WANTED TO START BY SAYING THAT ALTHOUGH THIS IS A SEPARATE POD, REALLY, THE COMMUNITY ITSELF IS DESIGNED COHERENTLY AND WILL ONCE YOU COME INTO PANTHER NATIONAL, BE REALLY A A SEAMLESS BETWEEN 14 AND 13, WHAT HAVE YOU? IT'S REALLY DESIGNED AS A COMPREHENSIVE NEIGHBORHOOD.

YOU WON'T REALLY DIFFERENTIATE FROM ONE PARTY TO THE OTHER.

IT'S JUST A WAY FOR US TO BE ABLE TO GO THROUGH THE APPROVALS AND BREAK DOWN THE DIFFERENT, THE DIFFERENT APPROACHES TO THE SIZE OF THE LOTS, ET CETERA.

BUT PANTHER NATIONAL IS REALLY DESIGNED AS A, AS A, YOU KNOW, COHESIVE NEW, MODERN, CONTEMPORARY GULF COMMUNITY OF TWO HUNDRED UNITS ON THIRD ACRE LOTS, HALF ACRE LOTS AND ONE ACRE LOTS. THE POD 12 IS OUR IS OUR SMALLER LOT DEVELOPMENT AT 90 FOOT BY ONE, TWENTY FIVE AND ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY FIVE, DEPENDING ON THE LOCATIONS WITHIN THE PARCEL AS YOU SAW IT. AND WHAT WE'VE DONE TO ADD TO THE PATTERN BOOK THAT YOU APPROVE PREVIOUSLY FOR 13 AND 14 IS TO GO INTO A LITTLE BIT MORE DEPTH, IF YOU WILL, ON THE FLOOR PLAN AND ELEVATION TYPOLOGIES AND SHOWING WHAT OUR THOUGHTS ARE RELATIVE TO HOW WE WANT TO DEVELOP CONTEMPORARY AND MODERN ELEVATIONS, AS WELL AS MATERIAL USES THAT YOU SAW IN OUR PATTERN BOOK BEFORE. SO AS YOU SEE IN THE DIVERSITY CRITERIA WE'VE ALSO LAID OUT SINCE, THESE WILL BE MORE OF A MODEL FLOOR PLAN THAT THEN CAN HAVE DIFFERENT FENESTRATION ON THE EXTERIOR AS WELL AS SOME INTERIOR OPTIONS.

WE'VE WRITTEN CRITERIA IN TERMS OF MAKING SURE THAT WE'RE NOT BUILDING THREE OR FOUR HOUSES OF THE SAME PLAN ELEVATION, COLOR, ET CETERA, IN A ROW TO MAKE SURE THAT THESE FLOOR PLANS ARE, IN FACT, WHERE THIS NEIGHBORHOOD SECTION OF OF PANTHER IS DIVERSE AS

[00:25:02]

WE'VE PUT TOGETHER A PACKAGE OF ELEVATION THEMES.

WE'VE PUT TOGETHER EXAMPLES OF DIFFERENT MATERIAL PALETTES.

AND AGAIN, THIS IS ALL BUILDING OFF OF WHAT WE DID FOR PODS 13 AND 14, USING VERY NATURAL MATERIALS AND COLORS AND THINGS THAT ARE COMPATIBLE WITH EACH OTHER.

AND EACH OF OUR MODEL TYPES ARE DEFINED BY NOT ONLY THE GARAGE ELEMENTS, THE FENESTRATION FOR ROOF ELEMENTS, SHADING DEVICES AS WE LIKE TO REFER TO THEM AS DOORS AND WINDOWS WALL TRIM. ALL OF THE ELEMENTS OF COMPOSITION AS WE HAD FOR THE CUSTOM HOMES ARE THE SAME THAT WE HAVE IN OUR MODELS FOR THE SMALLER HOMES.

SO YOU'LL SEE THAT IT RUNS TO VERY CONSISTENTLY WITH SMALLER HOUSES AND OUR LARGER HOUSES. THIS IS AN IMAGE OF OF FRONT AND A REAR OF WHAT WE HAVE IN THE PALETTE.

BOOK AS MODEL A..

WE'RE STILL WORKING ON OUR OUR MARKING AND NOMENCLATURE, BUT THIS PARTICULAR MODEL HAS A SINGLE STOREY, EXCUSE ME, TWO STOREY FOOTPRINT.

AND IT HAS, AS IN ALL OF THE MODELS THAT I SHOW YOU HERE TONIGHT, A MODERN AND A CONTEMPORARY ELEVATION THEME TO THEM.

AND WITHIN THAT, THEY'RE ALSO MATERIAL PALETTES THAT GO FROM A SELECT AS WE REFER TO IT AS TO ENHANCE AND SIGNATURE.

AND WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE IN THAT? IT'S THE TYPE AND THE AND THE AMOUNT OF FINISH THAT WE WOULD PUT ON THE EXTERIOR OF THE HOMES TO CHANGE THE WAY THEY LOOK AND FEEL FROM THE EXTERIOR USING MORE STUCCO IN A SELECT HOME WITH LESS OF THE KEYSTONE OR WOOD FENESTRATION AND ALL THE WAY TO A SIGNATURE HOME, WHICH WOULD HAVE MORE KEYSTONE AND HAVE A LITTLE BIT MORE OR LESS, IF YOU WILL, STUCCO AND SOME OF THOSE OTHER MATERIALS.

SO THAT KIND OF DIFFERENTIATES THE THREE DIFFERENT ELEVATION STYLES THAT WE'RE WORKING TOWARDS AND A MODERN AND CONTEMPORARY CONTEMPORARY BEING, ONE THAT WOULD HAVE A PITCHED ROOF WITH SOLAR TILES ON IT VERSUS A FLAT ROOF WITH HIDDEN SOLAR TILES ON IT.

WE ARE STILL INCORPORATING THE TESLA POWER WALLS AND THAT SUSTAINABILITY INTO THESE HOMES AS WELL. SO AGAIN, FOLLOWING THROUGH ON A LOT OF THE THINGS THAT YOU SAW IN OUR PACKAGES ON 13 AND 14.

THE EACH OF THE MODELS IN YOUR PACKAGE HAVE FRONT ELEVATIONS THAT SHOW THAT FINISHING FENESTRATION FROM A SIGNATURE.

AND IT ALSO SHOWS THE CONTEMPORARY AND THE MODERN ELEVATIONS.

I SELECTED THROUGH HERE THE MODEL A THAT SHOWS YOU ALL OF THE ELEVATIONS, BUT MODEL B.

HAS MODERN AND CONTEMPORARY, I DIDN'T PULL ALL OF THOSE ELEVATIONS FOR YOU, I THINK YOU HAVE IT IN YOUR PACKAGE JUST TO SAVE RELATIVE TO THE TIME.

OUR MODEL C IS A TWO STORY, VERY UNIQUE HOME AS WELL, AND A LOT OF THESE HOUSES ARE DESIGNED, SO THEY HAVE VIEW CORRIDORS OUT TOWARDS THE REAR YARDS.

THERE'S THERE'S MASTER, EXCUSE ME, GREAT ROOMS THAT HAVE THE ABILITY TO HAVE A FRONT OFFICE IN THIS PARTICULAR PLAN.

A LOT OF THE THINGS THAT WE'RE DESIGNING TOWARDS RIGHT NOW ALLOW FOR A HOME OFFICE.

A LOT OF THE THINGS THAT PEOPLE ARE LOOKING FOR TODAY IN HOME DESIGN TO ALLOW FOR NOT ONLY HOME OCCUPIED HOME OFFICE USE, BUT ALSO TO BE ABLE TO GET OUTSIDE AND BRING A LOT OF LIGHT AND AIR INTO THE HOMES, WHICH IS AGAIN VERY SIMILAR TO WHAT WE DESIGNED OR SHOWED YOU IN OUR PREVIOUS PRESENTATION.

UM. THIS IS A HOME MODEL D, WHICH IS DESIGNED AS A SIDE YARD, WE'VE GOT SOME INTERIOR LOTS THAT WOULD BENEFIT FROM HAVING NOT A REAR YARD POOL LOCATION, BUT A SIDE YARD.

SO WE'RE KIND OF DESIGNING HOMES THAT WOULD BE SPECIFIC TO A LOCATION AS WELL.

THEY GIVE US A LITTLE BIT MORE VARIETY.

AND ALSO WE'LL HAVE A A SCHEME THAT AS YOU ENTER THE COMMUNITY INSTEAD OF JUST SEEING SIDE HOME ELEVATIONS, IT ACTUALLY PRESENTS ITSELF AS A FRONT.

SO A LOT OF THE HOMES THAT YOU'LL SEE IN THE STREET PROFILES THAT I SHOWED YOU ARE REALLY DESIGNED TO BE SITE SPECIFIC AND ALLOWS US A LOT OF FLEXIBILITY.

UM, THIS IS A VERY TWO DIMENSIONAL ILLUSTRATION OF SOME OF THE DIFFERENT MODEL TYPES THAT WE'VE DEVELOPED, AND THIS MORNING WE JUST FINISHED UP DOING SOME STUDIES FOR OUR OUR MARKETING, ET CETERA. AND I I DIDN'T HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO SEND THOSE OVER TO BRET PREVIOUSLY, BUT I DID WANT TO SHOW TO YOU GUYS SOME OF THE THINGS THAT WE'RE WORKING ON

[00:30:01]

AGAIN, WE'RE WORKING ON THE ON THE MODEL OR THE THE SALES NOMENCLATURE FOR OUR MODEL TYPES. HERE'S THE OTHER ONE STORY HOME AND THESE ARE ACTUAL GARAGES THAT HAVE WOOD FENESTRATION THAT ARE APPLIED TO THEM THAT DISGUISE THE GARAGE DOORS, ET CETERA, AND REALLY MAKE EVERYTHING DISAPPEAR.

A LOT OF THE KEYSTONE THAT YOU SEE IN THERE IN TERMS OF THE TYPES OF MATERIAL THAT WE'RE THAT WE'RE UTILIZING, THAT'S A TWO STOREY VERSION OF A VERY SIMILAR HOME WITH THE ENTRYWAY OFF TO THE LEFT THERE.

AND THEN. ANOTHER ONE THIS IS PROBABLY MORE OF THE OF THE HIGHER END WITH THE FENESTRATION MORE KEYSTONE THAN THE STUCCO VERSION.

AND AGAIN, JUST TRYING TO GIVE YOU GUYS AN IDEA AND A FEEL FOR HOW THESE TRANSLATE FROM 2D INTO THREE DIMENSIONAL AND WHAT WE'RE REALLY LOOKING AT FOR THESE STREET SCENES FOR PANTHER NATIONAL. AGAIN, WE'RE REALLY EXCITED ABOUT BEING HERE AND.

IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS FOR ME ON THE APPLICATION OR THE ARCHITECTURE, I'D BE HAPPY TO ANSWER. THANK YOU. OK.

CARL, YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS.

YOU KNOW, SCOTT, I DON'T KNOW.

IT'S AWESOME. WE'RE NO NO BARREL TILE, RIGHT? YEAH, GOOD. NO MEDITERRANEAN.

IT'S RIGHT.

WE DID TAKE THAT OUT OF.

YEAH. I DON'T HAVE ANY QUESTIONS.

MAYBE AS YOU MOVE ALONG.

MAYBE BECAUSE I KNOW WE ALL LIKE TO COME OUT AND TAKE TOURS OF STUFF WE'RE APPROVING SO WE CAN ABSORB THE WHAT OUR SIGNATURE DOES.

SO WHEN YOU GUYS GET MOVING, YOU KNOW, IF YOU CAN GIVE ME A HOLLER, I'M SURE MY FELLOW COUNCIL MEMBERS WOULD LOVE TO COME OUT THERE AND JUST SEE AND GO THROUGH THE EXPERIENCE WITH YOU. SO I HAVE NO COMMENTS FOR NOW.

IT LOOKS GREAT. THANK YOU, SCOTT AND GEORGE.

THANK YOU, MARK.

HOUSING SQUARE FOOTAGE RANGES FROM WHAT TO WHAT IN THIS POD HOUSES.

THEY RANGE FROM ABOUT 4500 SQUARE FEET TO ABOUT SIX, SO EVEN THE ONE STOREY HOMES ARE 4500 SQUARE FEET UNDER AIR.

WOW, THANK YOU.

AND SO THEY WILL ALL MOSTLY ALL OF OUR HOUSES WILL MEET THAT CRITERIA SO THEY WILL BE FULLY SPRINKLED. JUST SO, YOU KNOW.

I THINK I REMEMBER READING IN THE PACKET THAT CERTAIN HOMES, THE ONES ON THE WATER AND THE ONES BY THE PRESERVE WILL HAVE TO HAVE THE FENCES BEHIND THEM, IS THAT CORRECT SO THAT THEY WILL COME WITH THE FENCES, BUT FENCES ARE OPTIONAL FOR ANYBODY ELSE? YEAH. AND IF YOU RECALL, IF YOU LOOK AT THE PACKAGE ON THE PRESERVED HOMES, THERE WAS A SECURITY WALL ON THE ON THE DOWN SIDE OF THE SLOPE AGAINST THE PRESERVE, SINCE IT'S OPEN TO THE PUBLIC. BUT THEN THERE WILL BE AN ABILITY TO PUT A A A FENCE LINE ALONG THE PROPERTY LINE, AS WELL AS THE IF THE HOMEOWNER ELECTS TO DO SO.

BUT THERE IS SECURITY AROUND THE PERIMETER OF THE PROJECT, BUT ON THE WATER ONES, THERE ARE FENCES THAT THAT IS WHAT ABOUT ON THE ONE WHERE THE WHERE THEIR BACK TO BACK AND YOU HAVE THE BERM? IS THERE FENCING THERE OR IS THAT OPTIONAL FOR THE HOMEOWNER? THAT'S OPTIONAL FOR THE HOMEOWNER.

WE PROBABLY ANTICIPATE THAT MOST OF THEM OR WE WILL PUT FENCING ALONG THOSE JUST TO SECURE THAT COMMON AREA IN THE BACK.

BUT IT IS SOMETHING THAT WE'RE STILL LOOKING AT IN TERMS OF HOW TO HOW TO PUT SOME OF THE SOME OF THE HOMES WILL HAVE WALLS AS WELL.

AND SO WE'RE LOOKING AT WHETHER OR NOT THE BACK.

PROPERTY LINES WILL HAVE THE SIMILAR TYPE OF WALL THAT YOU SAW IN OUR IMAGES IN THE FRONT, ALONG THE BACK WALLS AS WELL, SO WE'RE KIND OF WORKING THROUGH A LOT OF THAT.

WE DID PUT IN THE PATTERN BOOK THE OPTIONS IN TERMS OF THE TYPES.

THE TYPOLOGY IS THE FENCES THAT YOU CAN UTILIZE FOR EACH OF THE HOMES.

AND LIKE I SAID, WE'RE STILL KIND OF FINALIZING WHERE WE'RE GOING TO PLACE A BLOCK WALL VERSUS A PICKET FENCE VERSUS THE OTHER TYPES OF SECURITY.

DOES THAT HAVE TO GO BACK THROUGH PLANNING AND ZONING IF WHEN THAT'S DECIDED? JUST TO CLARIFY ON THE BACK TO BACKS, THERE IS A FOUR FOOT ALUMINUM FENCE DEPICTED IN THE EXHIBIT, SO WE DO THAT IF THE APPLICANT WISHES TO FLUSH OUT CONCEPTS, IT'S SOMETHING THAT WE COULD WORK OUT AT STAFF LEVEL.

TYPICALLY, THINGS ADJUSTMENTS, MINOR ADJUSTMENTS LIKE THAT ARE DONE AS A MINOR ADMIN, WHICH IS A AN APPLICATION THAT'S.

VERY STREAMLINED, IT'S $50 DOLLARS, AND THEY'RE USUALLY APPROVED IN A FEW DAYS.

AND I THINK TO MET NATALIE'S POINT, I APOLOGIZE ALL OF THE COMMON AREAS LIKE THE PARKS AND THINGS LIKE THAT, IF THEIR HOMES ADJACENT TO THEM, WE DO HAVE FENCING THAT SEPARATES

[00:35:02]

OK, THANK YOU, JEFF.

THANK YOU SO MUCH. IT'S GOING TO BE A REALLY NOTABLE COMMUNITY FOR OUR CITY, LET ALONE COUNTY OR COUNTRY EVEN, IT'S REALLY GOING TO BE EXTRAORDINARY.

THANK YOU. SO EVEN THOUGH WE ONLY HAVE TWO HUNDRED AND EIGHTEEN HOMES HERE, THIS MIGHT BE MORE OF A STAFF QUESTION.

WHAT ARE WE LOOKING AT AS FAR AS TRIGGERING SIGNALIZATION FOR AVENUE OR NORTH LAKE OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT AS MORE AND MORE PEOPLE FLOCK TO PURCHASE THESE HOMES? YES, UNFORTUNATELY, THE THE SIGNALIZATION AND THE UTILIZATION SPECIFICALLY OF THE FORECASTED SIGNALS AT THESE INTERSECTIONS, IN THIS PARTICULAR CASE, IT WILL BE PANTHER COMING DOWN TO CONNECT WITH WITH NORTH LAKE AND THEN AVANIR, WHICH ARE CURRENTLY ON SIGNALIZED. COCONUT IS CURRENTLY SIGNALIZED BUT WOULD REQUIRE A MODIFICATION OF THAT EXISTING SIGNAL TO ACCOMMODATE THE TRAFFIC FROM AVANIR.

THE TRIPS ARE ARE SET FORTH IN THE DEVELOPMENT ORDER AND THEY WILL BE TRIGGERED BY THE MONITORING OF THESE BUILDING PERMITS AS THEY COME IN.

BUT IT IS EXCLUSIVELY CONTROLLED BY PALM BEACH COUNTY, WHO MAKES THE DETERMINATION AFTER THE SIGNAL WARRANT ANALYSIS IS ISSUED BASED ON THE CRITERIA SET FORTH IN THE PALM BEACH COUNTY MANUAL FOR FOR FOR THE FOR THE ULTIMATE SIGNALIZATION AND THE.

THE TRIPS WILL HAVE TO ACCUMULATE TO THE POINT WHERE PALM BEACH COUNTY DETERMINES THE NEED FOR THE SIGNAL.

I WILL SAY THERE IS A SIGNAL PROJECTED COMING DOWN OFF OF THE PANTHER CONNECTION TO NORTH LAKE, AND THERE IS A SIGNAL THAT IS PROJECTED.

ULTIMATELY, CONNECT TO CONNECT TO AVANIR DRIVE THAT WAS INCLUDED IN THE ANALYSIS.

HOWEVER, THE ANTICIPATION OF A SIGNAL IS VERY DIFFERENT FROM THE ACTUAL TRIGGERING POINT WHERE THOSE BUILDING PERMITS ARE COMING IN AND PALM BEACH COUNTY SAYS, AHA.

YOU ACTUALLY MEET THE SIGNAL WARRANTS AND WE WILL ISSUE YOU A PERMIT, SO WE DO NOT CONTROL THAT, UNFORTUNATELY.

HOWEVER, WE WILL CONTINUE TO ADVOCATE FOR THOSE SIGNALS AND AS WE CONTINUE TO ADVOCATE FOR SAFETY FOR OUR RESIDENTS IN THE CITY.

THAT WAS MY NEXT QUESTION.

THANK YOU. GREAT ANSWER, AND THANK YOU FOR THE CLARIFICATION.

HOW DO YOU PRONOUNCE THE ARCHITECT'S LAST NAME? STRING STRING.

OK, GREAT BECAUSE I JUST DID THE PALM BEACH MARATHON WITH A RELAY AND THERE WERE A COUPLE OF STRING HOMES BEING BUILT ALONG THE WATERWAY IN WEST PALM AND THEY WERE STUNNING, ABSOLUTELY STUNNING. SO I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE IT HERE IN OUR CITY.

THANK YOU. THANK YOU AGAIN.

LOOKS GREAT.

LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING IT, AS MY COLLEAGUES HAVE MENTIONED, LOVE THE PATTERN BOOK.

I THINK YOU'VE SPOILED US NOW GOING FORWARD.

THE JUST A QUESTION TO PIGGYBACK ON CHELSEA'S QUESTIONS IN REGARDS TO THE SIGNAL ONCE THE THRESHOLD IS MET.

WHO CAN DO THE WARRANT STUDY? TYPICALLY, WHAT HAPPENS IS THAT THE APPLICANT DOES SUBMITS THE WARRANT STUDY AND THE AND THEN IT IS REVIEWED BY PALM BEACH COUNTY AND THE APPLICANT IN THIS PARTICULAR CASE IS THE MASTER DEVELOPER.

AND SO IT'S CURRENTLY AVANIR LLC OR AVON AVENUE DEVELOPMENT LLC THAT WILL CONTINUE TO DO THAT. MONITORING CONTINUE TO REGULARLY SUBMIT THOSE ANALYZES.

OK, PERFECT. AND IN REGARDS TO THE WALLS AND FENCES, IF THE RESIDENTIAL HOUSES CHOOSE TO, YOU KNOW, PUT UP THEIR FENCES ALONG THEIR BACK AREAS AND YOU HAVE THE THE CONCRETE WALL, IF IT WAS AGAINST THE CONSERVATION AREA OR THE FENCE, IF IT'S AGAINST THE COMMON AREA, IS THERE ACCESS PROVIDED? BECAUSE I KNOW SOME OF THE COMMON AREAS ARE FENCE ACCESS TO MAINTAIN THE COMMON AREAS FOR, YOU KNOW, REGULAR MAINTENANCE? YEAH, THAT'S A GOOD QUESTION.

AND WE DID BUILD THAT IN TERMS OF ACCESS POINTS FROM THE COMMON AREAS INTO THAT INTO THAT AREA. THAT'S KIND OF IN BETWEEN THE PRIVATE LOT.

THE DOWNSIDE OF OF THE WALL.

SO ABSOLUTELY YES.

OK, PERFECT. THANK YOU.

OKAY. THAT WAS IT. ALL RIGHT, GREAT.

I DO NOT HAVE ANY COMMENT CARDS, SO I'M GOING TO CLOSE THE HEARING.

CAN I GET A MOTION AND A SECOND TO APPROVE? I'D LIKE TO MAKE THE MOTION TO ACCEPT RESOLUTION ONE, 2020 TO SECOND.

IS THERE ANY DISCUSSION? NO, WE'RE WE'RE GOOD.

ALL IN FAVOR, I.

AND HE OPPOSED THE MOTION PASSES FIVE ZERO GRADUATIONS, LOOKING FORWARD TO SEEING IT ALL.

WELL, THE CLERK, PLEASE READ THE TITLE FOR RESOLUTION TO RESOLUTION TO 2020 TO A

[VIII.b. *RESOLUTION 2, 2022 – AVONDALE AT AVENIR SITE PLAN AMENDMENT. A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PALM BEACH GARDENS, FLORIDA, APPROVING A SITE PLAN AMENDMENT FOR SINGLE-FAMILY HOME FLOORPLAN MODELS, ARCHITECTURAL ELEVATION THEMES, AND TYPICAL LOT LANDSCAPING FOR AVONDALE AT AVENIR (RESIDENTIAL SITE PLAN #3 – POD 6, POD 7, and POD 8) WITHIN THE AVENIR PLANNED COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT (PCD) THAT IS GENERALLY LOCATED ON THE NORTH SIDE OF NORTHLAKE BOULEVARD, EAST OF GRAPEVIEW BOULEVARD, WEST OF BAY HILL DRIVE, AND SOUTH OF BEELINE HIGHWAY, AS MORE PARTICULARLY DESCRIBED HEREIN; PROVIDING CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL; PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE; AND FOR OTHER PURPOSES.]

[00:40:03]

I HAVE AN EXPERT. I SPOKE TO ROSA SCHECTER ON TUESDAY.

OK. HELLO, THERE.

HI, GOOD EVENING, KEN TAMWORTH URBAN DESIGN STU 10 CLEMATIS STREET, WEST PALM BEACH, FLORIDA THREE THREE FOUR ZERO ONE I'VE BEEN SWORN IN.

THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME HERE THIS EVENING, HERE TODAY ON BEHALF OF PULTE HOMES.

OUR HOMES ARE NOT GOING TO BE QUITE AS BIG AS WHAT YOU JUST SAW, BUT THEY ARE GOING TO BE VERY WELL DESIGNED AND A VERY NICE DESIGN.

SO THE COMMUNITY IS WITHIN THE AVANIR PROJECT.

IT'S CALLED AVONDALE AND IT'S PARCEL SIX, SEVEN AND EIGHT, AND I'LL SHOW YOU THAT ON A SCREEN. BUT IT'S ALL THE WAY IN THE NORTH EAST NORTH CORNER OFF OF COCONUT AS PART OF YOUR APPROVAL, WHICH YOU APPROVED ALMOST TWO YEARS AGO.

NOW YOU PUT A REQUIREMENT, SAID, HEY, YOU NEED TO COME BACK IN AND SHOW US YOUR MODELS, AND THAT'S WHAT WE'RE HERE THIS EVENING FOR, TO SHOW THE MODELS AND DESIGN FOR THE PROPOSED SITE. SO IT'S IN FRONT OF YOU IS THE AVANIR PCD, WHICH YOU'RE FAMILIAR WITH.

I'M GOING TO JUMP THROUGH THAT SLIDE.

BUT IDENTIFIED IN RED, THE OVAL IS THE PARCEL THAT'S IN FRONT OF YOU THIS EVENING.

YOU'VE ALREADY APPROVED A SITE PLAN.

WHAT SPECIFICALLY IN FRONT OF YOU THIS EVENING IS THE MODELS THEMSELVES.

IN FACT, THE SITE PLAN WAS APPROVED ON JUNE 4TH TWO THOUSAND TWENTY.

IT WAS RESOLUTION THIRTY FIVE TWO THOUSAND TWENTY.

IT CONSISTS OF THREE PARCELS OF LAND PODS.

SIX IS THE 50 FOOT WIDE LOT POD SEVEN AND EIGHT OR SEVENTY FIVE OR SEVENTY FOOT WIDE LOTS AND ARE BOTH ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY FEET DEEP.

SO IT'S IN FRONT OF YOU THIS EVENING AGAIN IS THE ARCHITECTURAL MODELS AND THEN ALSO THE TYPICAL LANDSCAPING, WE'RE GOING TO GO THROUGH THIS FAIRLY QUICKLY.

BUT THEY HAVE ABOUT FOUR OR FIVE SLIDES, MOSTLY SHOWING THE ELEVATIONS IN A 3D RENDERING FORMAT. SO THE MODEL HOMES, ARCHITECTURALLY THERE ARE TOTAL OF 11 MODELS BEING PROPOSED ON THE PARCELS.

THREE, THERE ARE THREE AND FOUR ARCHITECTURAL STYLES AND THERE'S SIX AND SEVEN COLOR SCHEMES. I'M GOING TO WALK YOU THROUGH BECAUSE THERE'S DIFFERENTIAL BETWEEN THE 70 FOOT LOT AND THE 50 FOOT LOT.

SO THE THE FIRST PARCEL POD SIX, WHICH ARE THE 50 FOOT WIDE LOT BY ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY FEET, THERE ARE FIVE MODELS AND THEN THERE ARE FOUR SEPARATE ARCHITECTURAL ELEVATIONS.

AND THEN THERE ARE ALSO SIX COLOR SCHEMES WITH THAT.

SO THE FIRST ONE IS THE COASTAL STYLE ARCHITECTURE.

THIS PARTICULAR PARCEL, THIS PARTICULAR HOME IS A ONE STOREY COASTAL STYLE ARCHITECTURE, AS SEEN ON THE SCREEN IN FRONT OF YOU, YOU CAN SEE THE RAFTERS, THE LAPP SIDING.

THAT'S THE DEFINITION OF A COASTAL STYLE ARCHITECTURE.

THE NEXT ONE, FROM AN ARCHITECTURAL STANDPOINT, IS THE PRESTIGE MODEL.

AND THIS IS A TRANSITIONAL, MODERN STYLE.

AND THE KEY THINGS FOR THE TRANSITIONAL MODEL STYLE, HOW PULTE THESE APPROACHED IT IS FOR THE SHED ROOFS, THE STUCCO, THE STACKED STONE.

AND THEN ALSO THE WINDOWS.

A LARGE GLASS WINDOWS ON THE FRONT.

SO THAT IS THE PRESTIGE IN THE TRANSITION MODERN STYLE.

THE NEXT ONE SHOWING ANOTHER COASTAL STYLE, THIS HOME WAS CALLED THE MAINSTAY.

AGAIN, THE LAB SIDING, THE RAFTERS, THE COLUMNS, AND THEN YOU CAN KIND OF SEE HOW THE ROOF LINES ARE WORKING HERE FOR THE COASTAL STYLE, I'M THE MAINSTAY.

AND THEN THE FIFTH AVENUE, WE'RE SHOWING THIS TO YOU IN THE CRAFTSMAN STYLE.

EXCUSE ME. SO YOU CAN KIND OF TELL THE CRAFTSMAN ITEMS WITH THE BRACKETS AND THEN THE TAPERED COLUMNS ARE KIND OF A COMPONENT OF THAT STYLE OF ARCHITECTURE.

THIS IS A TWO STOREY HOME.

IT HAS THE SHUTTERS, WHICH ARE ANOTHER COMPONENT OF CRAFTSMAN STYLE.

THEN THE FLORIDA MEDITERRANEAN IS HOLDT THIS REVIEW OF OF MEDITERRANEAN STYLE HOMES, THIS IS A RIVER WALK, A RIVER WALK MILE, THE STACKED STONE HEAVY STUCCO BARREL TILE ROOF, KIND OF THE BAY WINDOW. LOOK ALL THOSE COMMON THEMES THAT ARE PART OF THE FLORIDA MEDITERRANEAN STYLE.

AND THEN THIS IS A VIEW OF A STREET VIEW.

WE DID REMOVE SOME TREES HERE, SO YOU COULD SEE KIND OF WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE, BUT THIS IS JUST AN IDEA OF WHAT THE STREET WOULD, WHAT THE STREETSCAPE WOULD LOOK.

A TWO STOREY PRODUCT WITH WITH THE TAPERED COLUMNS.

[00:45:02]

JUST. THE NEXT SET OR THE NEXT SET OF APPROVALS ARE POD SEVEN AND EIGHT.

THEY ARE APPROVED UNDER 70 FOOT WIDE, LOTS BY ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY FEET DEEP.

THOSE MODELS ARE THERE ARE SIX SEPARATE MODELS AND THERE ARE THREE ARCHITECTURAL STYLES BEING PROPOSED AND SPECIFICALLY SIX COLOR SCHEMES FOR QUITE A DIVERSE PROPOSAL.

SO THIS IS AGAIN THE TRANSITION MODERN ON THE STARDOM HOME.

THE STARDOM HOME IS A LITTLE BIT BIGGER HOME.

IT IS ABOUT TWENTY TWO.

THIS ONE IS A THREE BEDROOM IS TWENTY TWO HUNDRED SQUARE FEET.

IT HAS. IT'S IN THAT TRANSITIONAL MODERN WITH THE LAB SIDING AND THE THE SHED ROOFS.

HERE YOU COULD SEE THE COASTAL DESIGN AGAIN WITH THE BRACKETS AND THE COLUMNS AND THE LAP SIDING. THIS ONE'S CALLED THE STELLAR MODEL.

THIS IS A REVEREND MODEL IN COASTAL STYLE OF ARCHITECTURE.

AND THEN THIS IS THE RENO AND RENO MODEL, WHICH IS A TREND SHOWN HERE IN TRANSITION MODERN AGAIN, THE SHED ROOFS, THE LAP SIDING, THE STACK STONE.

AND THEN THIS IS THE MILLSTONE, WHICH I BELIEVE IS THE BIGGEST HOUSE, BUT ACTUALLY IT'S NOT QUITE THE BIGGEST HOUSE, BUT IT'S CLOSE.

IT'S A FOUR BEDROOM HOME AT THREE THOUSAND FOUR HUNDRED SQUARE FEET, SHOWING IT IN A MEDITERRANEAN STYLE.

AND THEN THE WHITESTONE, WHICH IS ALSO FOUR BEDROOM HOMES, THREE THOUSAND SEVEN HUNDRED SQUARE FEET, AND IT'S IN THE FLORIDA.

IT'S IN THE CONTEMPORARY MODEL HERE WITH THE SHED ROOFS, THE SIDING.

AND ALSO THE STACK STONE.

A STREET VIEW SHOWING SHOWING HOW THOSE 70 FOOT LOTS WILL LOOK ON AN ANGLE AGAIN, REMOVE SOME OF THE STREET TREES SO YOU CAN KIND OF GET A VIEW OF WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE.

A LOT LANDSCAPING PLANS, THE LOT LANDSCAPING PLANS ARE CONSISTENT WITH THE OTHER COMMUNITIES THAT YOU'VE APPROVED, I'M GOING TO WALK YOU THROUGH TWO OF THEM, ONE FOR POD SIX, WHICH IS A 50 FOOT WIDE LOT AND THEN ONE FOR THE OTHER PODS, WHICH ARE JUST 70 70 FOOT WIDE LOTS.

SO THIS IS THE FIFTH AVENUE LANDSCAPING PLAN.

AND ON THE LEFT HAND SIDE OF THE SCREEN, YOU CAN SEE KIND OF THE STANDARD LOT WITHOUT A POOL. YOU'LL SEE THE LAND, YOU'LL SEE THE LANDSCAPING.

IN THIS CASE, WE'VE CHOSE THREE PALM TREES.

BOTH SIDES OF THE BUILDING, THERE'S A STREET TREE ASSOCIATED WITH IT.

THERE IS A SHRUBS RUNNING DOWN THE SIDE OF THE BUILDING, A SHADE TREE IN THE REAR AND PALM TREES. AND IF YOU RECALL, THERE'S KIND OF A LIST OF PLANT MATERIAL THAT YOU GET TO CHOOSE, AND THIS MEETS THOSE CRITERIA WITHIN THAT LIST.

YOU'RE NOT NECESSARILY SAYING YOU'RE GOING TO USE THIS PALM TREE, BUT YOU HAVE A LIST IN THE PLANS THAT ALLOW. YOU SHOULD MAKE SELECTIONS OF THOSE.

AND THEN THE ONE IN THE MIDDLE SHOWS WHAT HAPPENS IF THERE'S AN OPTIONAL POOL.

AND ON THE RIGHT HAND SIDE IS WHAT HAPPENS IF SIGN A CORNER LOT AND IF IT CAN BE SEEN FROM THE SIDE. SO IT'S AN ENHANCED LANDSCAPING ON THE SIDES, AND THE ONE ON THE RIGHT IS FOR THE RIGHT HAND ELEVATION.

THE ONE ON THE LEFT IS FOR THE LEFT HAND ELEVATION.

THIS IS JUST A BLOW UP OF THE SAME SLIDE TO SHOW YOU WHAT THE POOL WOULD LOOK LIKE.

AND THIS IS THE RENOWNED RENOWNED, WHICH IS IN THE 70 FOOT PRODUCT LINE AND SIMILAR LANDSCAPING ON THIS PARTICULAR MODEL STREET TREE PALM TREES ON THE CORNER.

ACCENT TREE ACCENT SHRUBS.

SHRUBS DOWN THE SIDE.

SHRUBS DOWN THE SIDE. LOTS OF GROUND COVER IN THE FRONT.

PALM TREES IN THE REAR.

AND A SHADE TREE.

ADDITIONAL ACCENT TREE AND AN ACCENT TREE.

AND THE SAME THING IN IN WITH THE OPTIONAL POOL.

THERE'S MORE THERE'S MORE SHRUBS OR HEDGES ALONG THE POOL TO BLOCK THAT VIEW FROM YOUR NEIGHBORS. AND THEN ADJACENT TO THE NEXT ONE OVER IS IF IT'S AN ENHANCED SIDE, MEANING THAT IT IS AT A CORNER LOT AND THERE IS ADDITIONAL LANDSCAPING.

SO THE SIDE OF THE BUILDING SHOWS LANDSCAPING MORE THAN ARCHITECTURE.

AND THAT'S MY PRESENTATION FOR THIS EVENING HAPPENING, WE HAVE OUR WHOLE TEAM HERE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE.

AND THAT'S IT. THANK YOU.

THANK YOU. I STARTED THIS END ALREADY THEN.

LOOKS GREAT. THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THE PRESENTATION, AND I REALLY NOTICED ALL OF THE ALTERNATE ALTERNATE OPTIONS THAT THIS DEVELOPMENT WILL HAVE, WHICH IS PRETTY REMARKABLE.

YOU KNOW, I LIVE IN A I LOVE THE COMMUNITY THAT I LIVE IN, AND ONE OF THE REASONS IS BECAUSE THERE WERE SO MANY OPTIONS, WHICH IS A NIGHTMARE FOR BUILDERS, AS YOU KNOW, BECAUSE YOU WERE ACTUALLY PART OF THE DEVELOPMENT WHEN THAT HAPPENED.

SO. AND YEAH, LONG STORIES.

[00:50:01]

I JUST WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT THAT WILL, YOU KNOW, WHEN THAT'S DONE OR OPTED FOR THAT, IT WOULD STILL MEET THE PARKING REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DRIVEWAY BECAUSE THAT WAS A CONCERN TO ME. ALL IS GOOD.

WELL, THANK YOU. SEE? THANKS, KEN, SO LOVING THE ANTI MONOTONY, AS AS I'VE MENTIONED BEFORE, I LIVE IN A NEIGHBORHOOD THAT DIDN'T HAVE THAT.

AND IT'S NOT UNCOMMON FOR PEOPLE WHO ARE VISITING FROM OUT OF TOWN JUST TO WALK INTO RANDOM HOUSES BECAUSE THEY ALL LOOK THE SAME.

SO I'M REALLY GLAD TO SEE THAT WON'T BE HAPPENING ANYMORE.

MY ONLY QUESTION IS ABOUT WHAT HAPPENS IN THE FUTURE.

SO BECAUSE WE'RE APPROVING FLOOR PLAN AND ELEVATION, DOES THAT MEAN THAT FIVE, 10, 15, 20 YEARS FROM NOW IF A RESIDENT WANTS TO MAKE THERE? I DON'T KNOW WHATEVER THEY WANT TO DO CHANGE A GARAGE TO A GOLF CART OR DO SOME OTHER CHANGE OR RENOVATION.

DO THEY HAVE TO GO THROUGH COUNCIL? IS IT CONSIDERED A NEW MODEL? WHAT WOULD THAT PROCESS LOOK LIKE AND.

I HAVE ANOTHER QUESTION, PROBABLY AFTER YOU EXPLAIN IT.

SURE. IT'S ACTUALLY QUITE COMMON THAT DEVELOPERS MAY SEEK TO AMEND A MODEL OR ADD A MODEL, AND WE DO THIS AT A STAFF LEVEL.

SO IF THE APPLICANT IN THE FUTURE WISHES TO TWEAK SOME OF THESE, THAT IS DONE ALMOST 100 PERCENT OF THE TIME AT A STAFF LEVEL.

THIS IS, OF COURSE, ASSUMING THAT THEY MEET THE SETBACKS THAT ARE APPROVED AND THE DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS AND THIS PARTICULAR CASE.

THERE ARE SEVERAL OPTIONS THAT HAVE BEEN INCLUDED.

AND SO THE RESIDENTS HAVE QUITE A BIT OF A VARIETY.

AND IN THOSE OPTIONS, YOU CAN SEE THOSE HOW THOSE ARCHITECTURAL FINISHES CARRY ON.

IF THERE'S EVER AN ADDITION IN THE FUTURE, THEY'LL HAVE TO CONTINUE THERE AS A CONDITION OF APPROVAL THAT REQUIRES THAT THE LANDSCAPING CONTINUE WITH THAT ADDITION SO THAT THERE'S A CONTINUOUS FLOW OF THAT LANDSCAPING.

AND SO AS LONG AS THEY'RE WITHIN THE SETBACKS THAT ARE APPROVED, REALLY, WE WORK WITH THIS SITUATION QUITE A BIT.

SORRY, THANK YOU. OK, SO THEY WOULD JUST NEED TO GO THROUGH THEIR PROCESS WITH ZONING, NOT HAVE TO GO THROUGH THE ENTIRE PROCESS THAT TO COME BACK TO US AGAIN.

CORRECT? YES, IT WOULD.

NOT JUST TO BE CLEAR PROCESS.

OF COURSE, THERE TYPICALLY IS A HOMEOWNERS ASSOCIATION WHICH HAS THEIR OWN RESTRICTIVE COVENANTS THAT THE RESIDENTS WOULD HAVE TO COMPLY WITH AS WELL.

PERFECT DO NOT ENFORCE, BUT THEY THEY MAY BE EVEN STRICTER DEPENDING ON HOW THE COMMUNITY IS. UNDERSTOOD.

ALL RIGHT. I APPRECIATE THAT. THANK YOU.

WHAT'S THE TIMELINE TO ACTUALLY START CONSTRUCTING HOMES, DO YOU GUYS ALREADY HAVE A SALES FORCE? I KNOW THE INFRASTRUCTURE BECAUSE I DROVE OUT THERE NOT LONG AGO AND A LOT OF IT'S ALREADY KIND OF, YEAH, THE INFRASTRUCTURE FOR POD SEVEN IS NEAR COMPLETION.

I CAN TELL YOU THAT PULTE WANTS TO START BUILDING TOMORROW.

OK. SO DO THEY HAVE AN ACTIVE SALES FORCE ALREADY? YES, THEY'RE SELLING THE FERRIS WE HAVEN'T BEEN SELLING YET BECAUSE THEY WANTED TO WAIT FOR FOR YOUR APPROVAL.

OBVIOUSLY, IT'S BECAUSE THEY MAKE SURE THE MODELS THAT THEY'RE PRESENTING ARE TO BE APPROVED. BUT AFTER THIS EVENING, I SUSPECT IT'LL GO ON SALE TOMORROW.

OK? AND THERE'S OBVIOUSLY A LOT OF DEMAND FOR THIS BECAUSE THESE ARE OBVIOUSLY MORE TYPICAL. RIGHT? WELL, YOU'RE GOING YOU HAVE SMALLER SQUARE FOOTAGE WHERE YOU'RE GOING FROM TWENTY TWO THOUSAND SQUARE FEET UP TO THIRTY FOUR.

SO IT'S A DIFFERENT MARKET THAN WHAT YOU SAW A FEW MINUTES AGO AND SCOTT'S PROJECT.

THANK YOU. CARL, IT'S NOT, YOU KNOW, THIS COUNCIL WASN'T IN THE BEGINNING STAGES OF THE APPROVAL OF AVIN HERE, BUT THIS COUNCIL IS PROBABLY GOING TO SIGN OFF ON MOST OF THE STUFF AS IT CONTINUES TO GROW.

SO IT'S NICE TO SEE EVERY ALMOST EVERY LITTLE POD, WHETHER IT BE PANTHER OR WHATEVER, COME IN FRONT OF US, SO WE CAN JUST APPROVE EVERYONE AS IT GOES.

AND MY POINT IS WE'RE SO INGRAINED WITH AVANIR, AND IT'S REALLY A NICE PRODUCT.

PANTHERS GORGEOUS.

THESE PRODUCTS ARE REALLY NICE.

I KNOW EVERY ONE OF US WALKED ALL THE MODELS TO GET A FIRST FEEL OF WHAT WE'RE APPROVING.

AND IT'S A BEAUTIFUL, YOU KNOW, IT'S A BEAUTIFUL COMMUNITY, ALL OF IT.

YOU KNOW THE. AS AS IT GROWS, WE'LL DEAL WITH TRAFFIC, WITH BABY STEPS, WE'LL DEAL WITH THE COUNTY WITH BABY STEPS.

IT TOOK US FOREVER TO GET ONE SIGNAL APPROVED, SO WE'LL WE'LL FIGHT THAT FRONT WHEN WE NEED TO. BUT. WELL, DUNCAN, I ALWAYS APPRECIATE YOU COMING UP HERE.

THANK YOU. IT REALLY IS THAT EVERY, EVERY POD AND EVERY DEVELOPER HAS THEIR OWN SIGNATURE AND EACH COMMUNITY IS DISTINCT IN ITS IDENTITY AND ITS FEEL, YET ALL OF AVANIR IS COHESIVE AND THIS THIS FITS INTO THE OVERALL PICTURE OF OF AVANIR AND THE WAY IT WAS INTENDED. AND I THINK IT'S GOING TO BE A VERY POPULAR COMMUNITY.

[00:55:01]

HOW MANY BUILDING PERMITS DO WE HAVE IN AVANIR SO FAR? NOT A MAYOR, THE DATA IS A LITTLE OUTDATED, JUST A COUPLE OF MONTHS, BUT I THINK THE LAST TIME I CHECKED IT WAS OVER A HUNDRED PERMITS HAVE BEEN SUBMITTED AND I WOULD SAY THERE'S BEEN ABOUT 20 HOMES THAT HAVE BEEN CLOSED OFF.

DO WE KNOW WHAT THE TRIGGER IS FOR HAVING YOUR DRIVE IN TERMS OF PERMITS FOR THE SIGNAL ONLY BECAUSE THE QUESTIONS HAVE COME IN TO US THROUGH EMAIL ABOUT THAT PARTICULAR SIGNAL? TO TRIGGER THE STUDY, TO TRIGGER THE WARRANT STUDY.

SO, SO WITH EACH BIENNIAL REPORT THAT AVANIR SUBMITS, THE PCDI IS REQUIRED TO SUBMIT.

THEY HAVE TO SUBMIT A SINGLE WARRANT STUDY AND THE THE TRIPS ARE BASED OFF OF BUILDING PERMITS THAT HAVE BEEN ISSUED.

AND SO IT'S NOT THE NUMBER OF HOMES THAT YOU ALL HAVE APPROVED, BUT THE ACTUAL NUMBER OF BUILDING PERMITS THAT HAVE BEEN ISSUED.

THAT'S WHY I ASKED HOW MANY PERMITS WE'VE HAD, AND THE TRIPS ARE ALSO RELATIVE TO EACH EACH USE. SO FOR EXAMPLE, A SINGLE FAMILY HOME WOULD CREATE A LOT LESS TRIPS THAN COMMERCIAL OR MEDICAL USE OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT.

SO WITH ONLY HAVING SINGLE FAMILY HOMES APPROVED BEING BUILT RIGHT NOW, THOSE TRIPS ARE PRETTY MINIMAL. SO BUT IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO EXACT NUMBERS, I CAN GET YOU THAT INFORMATION. OK, THANK YOU.

ALL RIGHT. YOU KNOW, A MOTION.

I DO NOT HAVE ANY COMMENT CARDS ON THIS ITEM, SO I WILL CLOSE THE HEARING.

CAN I GET A MOTION AND A SECOND TO APPROVE? I'LL MAKE A MOTION TO APPROVE RESOLUTION TO TWENTY TWENTY A SECOND.

NO FURTHER DISCUSSION, NO FURTHER DISCUSSION.

ALL IN FAVOR, I AND YOUR POST MOTION CARRIES FIVE ZERO.

WILL THE CLERK PLEASE READ RESOLUTION THREE TWENTY TWENTY TWO RESOLUTION THREE TO TWENTY

[VIII.c. *RESOLUTION 3, 2022 – OLD PALM GOLF CLUB INC. SITE PLAN AMENDMENT. A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PALM BEACH GARDENS, FLORIDA, APPROVING A SITE PLAN AMENDMENT FOR THE CLUBHOUSE PARCEL (PARCEL F1) TO ALLOW A NEW 17,637-SQUARE-FOOT LIFESTYLE CENTER AND POOL AMENITY ON A 9.69-ACRE SITE, MORE OR LESS, WITHIN THE OLD PALM PLANNED COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT (PCD) THAT IS LOCATED NORTH OF PGA BOULEVARD BETWEEN CENTRAL BOULEVARD AND FLORIDA’S TURNPIKE, AS MORE PARTICULARLY DESCRIBED HEREIN; PROVIDING CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL; PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE; AND FOR OTHER PURPOSES.]

I'M OPENING THE HEARING.

ARE THERE ANY EXPERTIZE? NONE, NONE.

AND WE WILL ASK MARK AGAIN WHEN HE COMES BACK.

UNLESS YOU'D LIKE TO HOLD FOR ONE MINUTE.

IT'S TOTALLY UP TO YOU, MAYOR.

WELL, JUST WHAT? JUST GIVE IT A MINUTE.

HE'S HE'S HE SHOULD BE BACK IN A MINUTE.

WELL, JUST. BOARD, WHEN YOU COME BACK IN THE ROOM, IF IT WASN'T QUASI, I WOULD PROCEED.

THAT'S TERRIBLE. YOU DIDN'T GET ANY VOTES OUT OF OBAMA, SO HE'S IN THE BANK.

ALL RIGHT. ERIC ERIC, ERIC SIMM, ANY EXPERTIZE ON THE OLD BOMB CLUBHOUSE, YOU KNOW EXPERTIZE. THANK YOU FOR YOUR PATIENCE.

NO PROBLEM. THANK YOU. GOOD EVENING.

MY NAME IS BRIAN DONAHUE.

I'M WITH INSIGHT STUDIO.

WE'RE HERE ON BEHALF OF OLD PALM GOLF CLUB THIS EVENING TO PRESENT TO YOU A CYCLING AMENDMENT APPLICATION TO ALLOW FOR A SEVENTEEN THOUSAND SQUARE FOOT LIFESTYLE CENTER ON THEIR CLUBHOUSE PARCEL.

EXCUSE ME, FOR ORIENTATION PURPOSES.

OPEN GOLF CLUB IS LOCATED JUST ON THE EAST SIDE OF THE FLORIDA TURNPIKE, JUST WEST OF CENTRAL BOULEVARD AND PGA BOULEVARD IS JUST OFF THE SCREEN THERE ON THE SOUTH SIDE.

YOU CAN SEE THE CLUBHOUSE PARCEL WITHIN THE DEVELOPMENT HIGHLIGHTED THERE ON THE SCREEN.

HERE'S A CLOSER LOOK AT THE CLUBHOUSE PARCEL.

YOU CAN SEE THE EXISTING CLUBHOUSE THERE ON THE WEST SIDE OF THE PARCEL.

THERE'S AN EXISTING POOL, A COUPLE OF CASINO BUILDINGS OUT TO THE EAST.

[01:00:01]

AND YOU'LL NOTICE THE VACANT PARCEL TO THE NORTH, WHICH IS NOW HIGHLIGHTED ON THE SCREEN.

THAT VACANT PIECE OF LAND IS WHERE THE PROPOSED APPROXIMATE SEVENTEEN THOUSAND SQUARE FOOT LIFESTYLE CENTER BUILDING WILL BE LOCATED.

EXCUSE ME. AGAIN, WE'RE HERE REQUESTING APPROVAL OF AN AMENDMENT FOR THE PREVIOUSLY APPROVED SITE PLAN.

TWO STOREY LIFESTYLE CENTER IS APPROXIMATELY SEVENTEEN THOUSAND SQUARE FEET.

IT'LL INCLUDE A FITNESS CENTER, SPA AND CAFÉ.

THERE WILL ALSO BE AN OUTDOOR POOL LOCATED ON THE WEST END OF THE PROPERTY.

19000 SQUARE FOOT.

I'M SORRY, 1500 SQUARE FOOT PLAYGROUND AREA WILL BE LOCATED ON THE NORTHEAST SIDE.

WE'LL HAVE ADDITIONAL GOLF CART, PARKING, CIRCULATION AND ACCESS FOR THE PROPOSED FACILITY. AND THERE WERE TWO OR I'M SORRY, THREE TENNIS COURTS THAT WERE PREVIOUSLY APPROVED THAT ARE BEING REMOVED FROM THE PREVIOUS APPROVAL.

AND THIS IS WHERE THE BUILDING WILL BE LOCATED ON THE SCREEN.

HERE IS A VIEW LOOKING TO THE EAST.

STANDING ON THE PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT SITE, THIS IS LOOKING OUT TOWARDS OLD PALM DRIVE.

THIS IS LOOKING TO THE NORTH AND I WANT TO POINT OUT IN THESE PICTURES AND I'LL TALK A LITTLE MORE ABOUT THIS IN THE PRESENTATION.

BUT YOU CAN SEE THERE'S TWO EXISTING RESIDENTIAL UNITS TO THE NORTH THAT ARE PRETTY HEAVILY BUFFERED. YOU CAN BARELY SEE THE ONE IN THIS VIEW AND THIS ONE, YOU CAN GET SOME SMALL GLIMPSES THERE.

JUST POINTING THAT OUT BECAUSE WE WILL BE SPEAKING ABOUT THE ADDITIONAL BUFFERING WE ARE GOING TO DO. THIS IS A VIEW TO THE WEST LOOKING OUT OVER THE GOLF COURSE ON THAT VACANT PARCEL. AND THIS IS THE PREVIOUSLY APPROVED SITE PLAN, AS I MENTIONED, THERE'S THREE TENNIS COURTS THAT WERE APPROVED AS A FUTURE PHASE OF DEVELOPMENT THAT WERE NEVER BUILT, AND THAT IS WHERE THE PROPOSED LIFESTYLE CENTER WILL BE LOCATED.

THIS IS THE SITE PLAN MODIFIED TO SHOW THE PROPOSED LIFESTYLE CENTER, AND I'M GOING TO ZOOM IN ON A GRAPHIC REPRESENTATION OF THAT HERE.

SO THIS IS HOW IT INTEGRATES WITH THE EXISTING CIRCULATION.

AS YOU CAN SEE ON THE SCREEN, AND AGAIN, I'LL ZOOM IN TO GET INTO MORE DETAIL.

THE NORTH END OF THE EXISTING PARKING LOT WILL BE SLIGHTLY MODIFIED TO PROVIDE A DROP OFF AND ACCESS WAY. THE EXISTING CART PATH THAT CUTS FROM EAST TO WEST ON THE SCREEN, JUST SOUTH OF THE PROPOSED BUILDINGS WILL STAY AND IT'S ACTUALLY GOING TO BE EXPANDED TO PROVIDE BETTER EMERGENCY ACCESS, WHICH IS SOMETHING WE WORK THROUGH WITH STAFF DURING THE APPROVAL PROCESS.

THERE WILL ALSO BE GOLF CART PARKING LOCATED ON THAT DRIVEWAY.

HERE IS A BLOWUP OF THAT AREA THAT'S GOING TO BE IMPACTED, SO AS I MENTIONED ON THE BOTTOM OF THE SCREEN, THERE YOU SEE THE PROPOSED DROP OFF AREA WITH A PAVER CONNECTION THAT CONNECTS TO THE CENTER OF THE BUILDING.

IT'S ESSENTIALLY TWO SEPARATE BUILDINGS WITH A COVERED BREEZEWAY AND STAIR TOWER IN THE CENTER, SO THERE'S A STAIR TOWER WITH AN ELEVATOR SHAFT IN THE MIDDLE.

THE EAST WING OF THE BUILDING IS PRIMARILY THE CAFE AND THE SPA FUNCTION, AND IN THE WEST SIDE IS PRIMARILY THE FITNESS FUNCTION.

AS YOU CAN SEE, AS YOU GO FURTHER WEST ON THE SITE, THERE'S A LARGE COVERED PATIO THAT LOOKS OUT OVER THE PROPOSED POOL.

THIS WILL BE THE SECOND POOL ON THE PROPERTY.

THIS IS PRIMARILY A FITNESS POOL, SO IT'S GOING TO HAVE LAP LANES.

IT'S NOT GOING TO BE THE LOUNGING HANGOUT POOL THAT'S JUST FOR FOR CARDIO AND FITNESS PURPOSES. AGAIN, YOU CAN SEE THE THE EXPANDED CART PATH, WHICH WILL FUNCTION AS EMERGENCY ACCESS, AND WE'VE PROVIDED ABOUT 50 OR 60 CART PARKING SPACES, WHICH THE CLUB BELIEVES WILL BE THE PRIMARY WAY THAT MOST PEOPLE COME AND GO FROM THE FROM THE LIFESTYLE CENTER AND THEIR GOLF CARTS. THIS IS A PERSPECTIVE RENDERING FROM THE PROPOSED DROP OFF LOOKING AT THE BUILDING. SO AS YOU CAN SEE, HEAVY MEDITERRANEAN INFLUENCES IN THE ARCHITECTURE, THE BARREL TILE ROOF, THE ARCHES, THE COLUMNS.

THE ARCHITECTURE WAS DESIGNED BY PEACOCK AND LOUIS TO MATCH THE EXISTING CLUBHOUSE.

THE EXISTING CLUBHOUSE IS ACTUALLY GOING ON HAS SOME RENOVATIONS GOING ON.

THEY'VE CHANGED THE COLOR OF THE BUILDING.

IT'S BEEN, YOU KNOW, TRADITIONALLY THIS KIND OF HEAVY YELLOW THERE GOING TO THIS LIGHTER AND AIRY, MORE ALABASTER WHITE COLOR TO GIVE IT A NICE, FRESH LOOK.

AND YOU CAN SEE THE LANDSCAPING FLANKING.

WE GOT THE EAST BUILDING IN THE WEST BUILDING THERE.

THIS IS A VIEW FROM OLD PALM DRIVE LOOKING INTO THE PROPERTY SHOWING THE EAST WING, WHICH WOULD BE AGAIN PRIMARILY THE THE SPA FUNCTION.

THESE ARE THE PROPOSED ELEVATIONS TO THE SOUTH ELEVATION ON THE TOP OF THE SCREEN, NORTH ELEVATION AS SEEN FROM THE PARKING LOT AND THE DROP OFF SO YOU CAN SEE THAT CENTRAL STAIR TOWER. ARCHITECTURAL FEATURE THERE IN THE CENTER.

EAST AND WEST ELEVATION, SO EAST ELEVATION HAS SEEN FROM OLD PALM DRIVE AND THEN THE WEST ELEVATION AS SEEN FROM THE GOLF COURSE.

AND THESE ARE THE FLOOR PLANS, SO FIRST FLOOR HERE ON THE WEST WING, PRIMARILY SORT OF OPEN STUDIO FUNCTION WITH THE MEN'S AND WOMEN'S LOCKER ROOMS AND THEN ON THE EAST SIDE, THERE YOU'VE GOT THE MULTIPURPOSE ROOM.

THERE'S GOING TO BE A SMALL CAFE AND A KIDS CLUB WITH SOME STAFF SPACE.

AND THE SECOND FLOOR ON THE WEST END IS GOING TO BE YOUR MORE CARDIO AREA WITH YOUR TYPICAL EXERCISE EQUIPMENT.

AND THEN ON THE EAST SIDE, THE SECOND FLOOR IS PRIMARILY THE SPA FUNCTION.

SO YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE YOUR TYPICAL TREATMENT ROOMS FOR MANICURE AND PEDICURE, MASSAGE

[01:05:03]

SO TO SPEAK A LITTLE MORE ABOUT THE BUFFERING, YOU CAN SEE THE DEVELOPMENT AREA HIGHLIGHTED ON THE SCREEN.

THERE'S A PRETTY EXTENSIVE EXISTING LANDSCAPE BUFFER.

I'LL SHOW YOU SOME PHOTOS OF THAT BUFFER.

AND JUST FOR ORIENTATION PURPOSES, THE PHOTOS THAT I SHOW, I'M KIND OF STANDING WHERE IT'S LABELED EXISTING LANDSCAPE BUFFER AND YOU SEE THE ARROW POINTING WHEN I FLIP TO THAT SCREEN. THIS IS THE PROPOSED LANDSCAPE BUFFERING.

SO WE ARE ENHANCING THE EXISTING BUFFER TO TRY TO FILL IN ANY OF THOSE VOIDS THAT ARE THERE FOR THE RESIDENTS ADJACENT ON THE NORTH SIDE.

SO THIS IS THE VIEW FROM THAT ANGLE.

I'M ACTUALLY ON THE RESIDENTIAL PARCEL THERE.

THAT'S A LITTLE TO THE NORTH, LOOKING BACK THROUGH TOWARDS OUR DEVELOPMENT SIDE.

SO AS YOU CAN SEE, YOU KNOW, WHEN THEY PLAY IN THE COMMUNITY, THEY BUILT THE BERM, THEY BUILT A WATER FEATURE AND THERE'S EXTENSIVE LANDSCAPE IN THERE.

WE'VE GOT SOME OAK TREES AND SOME LAGOS TRIM, SOME PALMS, A VARIETY OF MULTILAYERED MATERIAL THAT DOES PROVIDE A NICE BUFFER.

HERE'S ANOTHER VIEW LOOKING DOWN AGAIN, YOU CAN SEE THE WATER FEATURE.

THERE'S ACTUALLY SOME WATERFALLS BURIED IN THERE AS WELL THAT CREATES SOME WHITE NOISE TO HELP DROWN OUT ANY OF THE NOISE FROM THE CLUB PARCEL.

HERE'S A CROSS SECTION.

THE TWO BUILDINGS ARE GOING TO BE SEPARATED BY, I THINK IT'S OVER 100 FEET.

YOU CAN SEE THE THE LEFT SIDE OF THE SCREEN IS THE PROPOSED LIFESTYLE CENTER, THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE EXISTING RESIDENTIAL.

THE BUILDING WILL BE ABOUT 30 FEET TALL.

WE'RE GOING TO PROPOSE A 15 FOOT BUFFER AREA.

THE GAPS THAT WE MAINLY SAW IN THE BUFFERING WAS IN A KIND OF LOWER TO MID LEVEL.

SO WE'RE PROPOSING INCLUSIVE HEDGES LAGOS FROM SOME ADDITIONAL SABLE PALMS, SOME EXCLUSIVE TREES AND OTHER KIND OF MID TO LOWER LEVEL MATERIAL THAT WILL HELP FILL IN SOME OF THESE GAPS. UM, THE PROJECT WAS APPROVED BY A MAJORITY VOTE OF THE COMMUNITY IN TWENTY TWENTY. IT WAS ALSO UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDED FOR APPROVAL BY PS AB ON DECEMBER 14TH, I BELIEVE WAS THE DATE. AND WE REQUEST APPROVAL OF THE APPLICATION THIS EVENING.

THANK YOU. THANK YOU.

I DON'T HAVE ANY COMMENT CARDS ON THIS.

DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY QUESTIONS? YOU KNOW, THE POOL, I'M SORRY, THE POOL THAT IS PROPOSED HERE.

YOU SAID THAT WAS A LAP POOL, NOT A KID POOL, SO THE ENTERTAINING POOL IS ELSEWHERE.

SO WAS THAT SOMETHING THAT MITIGATED SOME OF THE CONCERN OF THE NEIGHBORS? I DON'T KNOW THAT THERE WERE REALLY NO CONCERNS OF THE NEIGHBORS AS FAR AS I UNDERSTAND.

SO, YOU KNOW, THE PROJECT WENT THROUGH MULTIPLE PROCESSES THROUGH THE COMMUNITY.

I THINK THEY HAD, YOU KNOW, 10 TO 12 OUTREACH MEETINGS WITH THE COMMUNITY TO GAIN SUPPORT FOR THE PROJECT AND THEY COMMUNICATE WITH THE MEMBERSHIP, OBVIOUSLY EQUITY MEMBERSHIP THERE. SO EVERYBODY'S A MEMBER OF THE COMMUNITY AND THEY UNDERSTAND WHAT'S GOING ON.

SO WHAT WERE THE HOURS THAT THEY WERE GOING TO BE OPEN, THE HOURS OF OPERATION FOR THE FACILITY? I DON'T KNOW THAT.

YOU CAN CERTAINLY LOOK INTO THAT FOR.

I'M NOT SURE, I'M SURE IT WON'T BE OPEN LATE AT NIGHT, I DON'T THINK IT'LL BE VERY LATE.

THANK YOU. ANY OTHER COMMENTS OR QUESTIONS? I JUST I WANT TO THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE RESIDENT OUTREACH THAT YOU DID.

IT'S ALWAYS A BREATH OF FRESH AIR FOR PEOPLE WHO LIVE SOMEWHERE TO HAVE BEEN INCLUDED IN THE DECISION. I UNDERSTAND IT'S PART OF THE MEMBERSHIP, BUT 10 OR 12 MEETINGS TO ACCOMPLISH WHAT THEIR NEEDS WERE IS IS REALLY BEING A GOOD NEIGHBOR AND WE ALWAYS APPRECIATE THAT. YEAH, AND THAT WAS PART OF JUST TO ELABORATE A LITTLE BIT ON THAT.

THEY'VE GOT A LOT OF PROJECTS GOING ON OUT THERE, SO THAT'S PART OF THEIR KIND OF MASTER PLAN FOR THE NEXT FIVE YEARS OF ALL THE DIFFERENT THINGS THAT THEY'VE GOT GOING ON.

SO THEY'VE BEEN CONTINUALLY COMMUNICATING AND MAKING SURE THEY'RE KEEPING UP WITH THE REST OF THE CLUBS IN THE AREA LIKE THEY ALL DO.

SO MORE THAN ANYTHING.

YEAH, I DO HAVE A QUESTION IN REGARDS TO THE LIFESTYLE BUILDING.

THE NEW BUILDING THAT'S PROPOSED IS THERE AS FAR AS THE SUSTAINABILITY IS THERE, LIKE AN ENERGY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM BESIDES LED LIGHTS, WHICH WAS NOTED IN THE STAFF REPORT.

IS THERE LIKE THE NH&MRC ENERGY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM? IS THERE SOLAR PANELS ANYWHERE? IS THERE ANY TYPE OF PARKING LED LIGHTS GOING UP IN THE NEW PARKING AREA? THERE'S GOING TO BE LED LIGHTING IN THE PARKING AREA.

INSIDE THE BUILDING UNDER THE HVA SYSTEM WILL BE MEETING ALL THE CURRENT BUILDING CODES, WHICH REQUIRE A LOT OF EFFICIENCIES IN THE WAY THAT THOSE ARE DESIGNED.

FROM A LIGHTING STANDPOINT, THERE WILL BE SENSORS ON THE LIGHTS INSIDE THE BUILDING THAT TURN THEM OFF. SO.

AND I KNOW WITH HVAC SYSTEM NOWADAYS AND THE BUILDING CODE, IT REQUIRES CERTAIN TECHNOLOGIES AND I'M NOT A MECHANICAL ENGINEER, BUT I DID.

THIS HAS BEEN DISCUSSED IN THE PROCESS AND I'VE BEEN INVOLVED, SO THERE ARE GOING TO BE SOME EFFICIENCIES IN THOSE SYSTEMS. OKAY. DO YOU HAPPEN TO KNOW WHEN THEY'RE EXPECTING TO START CONSTRUCTION ON THIS? WHAT'S WHAT'S THE TIME PLAN? I THINK I'D GIVE THE SAME ANSWER AS KEN AS SOON AS THIS IS APPROVED AND THEY CAN GET BUILDING PERMITS IN PLACE, THEY'RE GOING TO START CONSTRUCTION BECAUSE THIS IS LIKE THE THIRD TIME THAT THEY'VE ASKED FOR CHANGES.

I THINK ON THIS THIS PARCEL, SO IT'D BE REALLY NICE TO HAVE THEM FINALLY GET THERE, THEIR BUILDINGS THERE. SO YEAH, SO CURRENTLY WE ACTUALLY PROCESSED AN AMENDMENT TO THE SITE

[01:10:03]

ABSOLUTELY. ALL RIGHT.

THANK YOU. I'M GOING TO CLOSE THE HEARING ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION.

CAN I GET A MOTION IN A SECOND TO APPROVE MAKE A MOTION TO APPROVE RESOLUTION THREE, 2020 TO A SECOND? NOW IT'S ONE. I SHOULD'VE BROUGHT IT BACK FOR DISCUSSION, BUT WE HAVE NONE.

SO ALL IN FAVOR.

I AND YOUR POST MAKE A MOTION PASS US FIVE ZERO.

OK, SO WHERE ARE WE WE ARE AT? WE HAVE NO RESOLUTIONS, ITEMS FOR COUNCIL ACTION, DISCUSSION AND ITEMS OF INTEREST.

I WILL NOT KEEP US LONG, BUT I THOUGHT IT WAS IMPORTANT TO TALK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT PALM

[X. ITEMS FOR COUNCIL ACTION/DISCUSSION AND ITEMS OF INTEREST]

WE MET WITH MR. DRUMMOND ABOUT THE CENTRAL BOULEVARD I-95 INTERCHANGE AND OUR INABILITY TO SECURE ANY OF THE PRIVACY OR BARRIER WALLS THAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR FOR OUR RESIDENTS IN THE COMMUNITIES AROUND THAT.

AND THAT WOULD INVOLVE OLD PALM, THE COUER CENTRAL GARDENS, THE GRAND APARTMENTS, HAMPTONS HARBOR CHASE AND A PORTION OF THE THE CITY PARK.

SO MR. DRUMMOND TOOK COPIOUS NOTES.

HE WAS VERY INTERESTED TO WORK WITH US AND SAID THAT HE WOULD BE REACHING OUT TO THE DISTRICT FOR DOT AND SEE IF WE COULD REOPEN TALKS WITH THEM ABOUT HELPING TO MITIGATE SOME OF THE ISSUES THAT ARE GOING TO RESULT FROM THIS.

THE PROJECT DOES NOT START SET TO START UNTIL NOVEMBER 28TH, NO, NO UNTIL 2028 AND BE DONE, I THINK SOMEWHERE IN THAT THREE TO FIVE YEAR RANGE.

SO THAT WAS ANYTHING TO ADD TO THAT MEETING CHELSEA.

NO, NO, YOU DID A GREAT JOB, AND WE'RE HOPEFUL HE BRINGS IT BACK TO HOME SO THAT WE CAN WORK ON IT. AND JOHN WAS IN A MEETING WITH US AND HELPED OUT WITH SOME OF THE DETAILS AND PROVIDING SOME OF THE INFORMATION THAT WE NEEDED.

THERE ARE A COUPLE OF BILLS THAT SHOULD BE ON EVERYBODY'S RADAR WITH RESPECT TO CITIES.

I'LL START OUT WITH THE GOOD ONE.

FIRST, WE MET WITH THE ROTH AND WE MET WITH SENATOR POWELL.

WE THANK THEM BOTH FOR BRINGING FORWARD OUR APPROPRIATIONS FOR OUR STORMWATER TREATMENT.

IT'S A MATCHING ACTION.

IT'S THE ONLY THING THAT WE ARE ASKING IN APPROPRIATIONS THIS YEAR.

THERE IS QUITE A BIT OF MONEY UP IN TALLAHASSEE THIS YEAR BECAUSE OF THE FEDERAL FUNDING.

SO WE'RE HOPEFUL.

BUT EXCITING IS SB 18 TWENTY FOUR AND HOUSE BILL 14 15.

THE HOUSE BILL IS TITLED ALTERNATIVE MOBILITY FUNDING SYSTEMS AND WAS PUT FORWARD BY ROBINSON AND THE SPONSOR OF SB 1820 FOR THE MOBILITY FUNDING SYSTEMS IS BROADER.

AND BASICALLY, WHAT THESE TWO BILLS DO IS THEY PROVIDE THE DETAILS ON THE MOBILITY PLAN AND THE MOBILITY FEE.

EVERYTHING THAT WE AS A CITY DID TO GET OUR STARTED AND AN UP AND RUNNING.

THE DETAILS ARE NOW WILL HAVE STATE BACK TEETH, SO TO SPEAK, IF THESE BILLS ARE PASSED.

SO WE DID ASK REP.

ROTH AND SENATOR POWELL TO SUPPORT THEM TO REACH OUT TO ANYBODY THEY KNEW ON THE COMMITTEES TO HELP GET THESE THROUGH.

AND IT'S SOMETHING THAT WE SHOULD FOLLOW BECAUSE PRETTY MUCH WE'VE DONE EVERYTHING THAT IS IN THESE BILLS THAT THEY ARE GOING TO REQUIRE FOR THIS.

OUR PLAN COULD BE THE MODEL FOR THESE BILLS, EVEN THOUGH IT WASN'T.

SO THAT'S A GOOD THING.

ON THE OTHER SIDE OF IT, WE HAVE SENATE BILL TWO EIGHTY IN HOUSE BILL FOUR OH THREE

[01:15:07]

IT'S CALLED LOCAL ORDINANCES, AND IT HAS AN IDENTICAL HOUSE COMPANION, WHICH IS HOUSE BILL FOUR THREE.

THESE TWO BILLS PROVIDE THAT A COURT MAY AWARD ATTORNEY FEES TO A COMPLAINANT SUCCESSFULLY CHALLENGING A LOCAL GOVERNMENT ORDINANCE ON THE GROUNDS THAT THE ORDINANCE IS ARBITRARY OR UNREASONABLE.

IT REQUIRES COUNTIES AND MUNICIPALITIES TO ADOPT A BUSINESS IMPACT STATEMENT BEFORE THE ADOPTION OF ANY PROPOSED ORDINANCE, AND IT REQUIRES THE SUSPENSION OF ENFORCEMENT OF ANY NEWLY ENACTED ORDER ORDINANCE IF A PARTY CHALLENGING THE ORDINANCE REQUEST SUSPENSION BY THE COURT. SO IT REALLY CAN TIE THE HANDS OF MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT AND COUNTY GOVERNMENT.

WE CAN PASS AN ORDINANCE.

SOMEBODY DOESN'T LIKE IT.

THEY REGISTER A COMPLAINT.

EVERYTHING'S ON HOLD AND WE CAN'T DO BUSINESS THAT WAY.

OUR RESIDENTS.

WE CAN'T DO WHAT WE NEED TO DO FOR THEM.

SO IT'S AN UNFUNDED MANDATE AND THERE'S MANY QUESTIONS THAT REMAIN ABOUT THE ABILITY OF THE INDIVIDUAL BUSINESSES TO TO STOP AND CHALLENGE THIS AS THEY WORK THROUGH THE SYSTEM.

THERE WERE TWO OTHER ONES.

LET'S SEE. SENATE BILL 620 AND HOUSE BILL FIFTY NINE THAT ARE ALSO LOCAL GOVERNMENT BILLS, AND THEY CREATE A CAUSE OF ACTION FOR AN ESTABLISHED BUSINESS TO RECOVER LOSS OF BUSINESS DAMAGES FROM A COUNTY OR MUNICIPALITY WHOSE REGULATORY ACTION HAS CAUSED A SIGNIFICANT NEGATIVE IMPACT, WHICH IS DEFINED AS GREATER THAN 15 PERCENT LOSS OF REVENUE OR PROFIT ON THE BUSINESS.

BUT A LOT OF QUESTIONS REMAIN ON HOW MUNICIPALITIES WILL BE ABLE TO MAKE ORDINANCES THAT IMPACT BUSINESSES ACROSS THE BOARD FOR THE COMMON GOODS OF THEIR CITIES, BUT MAY HAVE FINANCIAL IMPACTS ON A SINGLE BUSINESS.

SO THESE ARE SEVERAL BILLS THAT WE SHOULD BE WATCHING THE FLORIDA.

IT'S CALLED THE FLORIDA CHANNEL DAWG.

YOU CAN LOG ON TO THAT.

ANYBODY CAN LOG ON TO SEE ANY OF THE COMMITTEE HEARINGS THAT ARE GOING ON.

AND YOU CAN ALSO LOOK UP THE SENATE TRACKER AND THE HOUSE TRACKER.

YOU CAN PUT IN YOUR REPS BY NAME.

YOU CAN PUT IN THE BILLS OR THE TITLES, AND YOU CAN GET TEXT MESSAGES AND EMAILS AS THE BILLS MOVE THROUGH THE PROCESS.

SO SHE'LL SAY ANYTHING, DAD.

AND NOT TO THAT, I'LL SPEAK AFTER YOU'RE DONE.

THAT'S AN ORDINANCE. OK, SO NEXT YEAR IN TALLAHASSEE IN PERSON.

OK, SO I JUST NEED TO I JUST WANT TO TALK ABOUT SOME TPA INFORMATION.

I WANT TO ENCOURAGE MY COUNSEL WHEN YOU HAVE RESIDENTS THAT REACH OUT TO YOU ABOUT SUGGESTIONS OR CONCERNS REGARDING MOBILITY AND TRAFFIC.

THERE'S A MAP FOR THAT.

IT'S WW PALM BEACH HTTP COORG FOR COMMENT.

MAP. I'M HAPPY TO SHARE IT IN ANY WAY.

I SHARE IT ALL THE TIME ON SOCIAL MEDIA AND TO RESIDENTS SO THAT WHEN SOMEONE IS SAYING THAT THEY'RE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD, IT'S UNSAFE ANYWHERE IN THE COUNTY, THEY CAN PUT A PIN IN IT. IT ALSO HAS MAPPING TO EXPLAIN IF IT'S A CITY ROAD OR COUNTY ROAD, A STATE ROAD, ANYTHING LIKE THAT. SO IT'S ALSO A GREAT WAY FOR RESIDENTS TO UNDERSTAND THAT EVEN IF A ROAD IS IN PALM BEACH GARDENS, IT DOESN'T NECESSARILY MEAN WE HAVE THE ABILITY TO CHANGE IT. SO I'M HAPPY TO SHARE THAT.

AND THEN ALSO, I LOVE FOR ALL OF US TO CONSIDER DOING SOMETHING IN MAY FOR BIKE MONTH.

IT'S A PRETTY BIG DEAL FOR TRANSPORTATION.

FLORIDA HAS SOMETHING CALLED LOVE TO RIDE NET, SO MAY 10TH IS BIKE TO SCHOOL DAY.

MAY 15TH TO 19TH IS BIKE WEEK AND FOR BIKE TO WORK WEEK AND THEN MAY 19TH IS THE DAY YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO BIKE TO WORK.

SO MAYBE WE COULD LOOK AT DOING SOMETHING MARCIE IS NOT ALLOWED TO, BUT WE'LL FIGURE SOMETHING OUT. AND THEN I WANT TO TAKE A MOMENT TO THANK OUR STAFF FOR ALL OF OUR WONDERFUL HOLIDAY CELEBRATIONS.

HOLY COW.

I DIDN'T SEE A DAY WHERE OUR REC STAFF WASN'T WORKING THEIR BUNS OFF AND IT WAS BEAUTIFUL. EVEN WATCHING EVERYBODY DRESS UP AS ELVES WAS EXTRAORDINARY.

AND THE TREE OF THE MENORAH, EVERYTHING JUST MADE ME SO PROUD TO REPRESENT OUR CITY.

SO THANK YOU GUYS FOR HELPING US CELEBRATE SO BEAUTIFULLY.

AND THEN I ALSO WANT TO THANK OUR STAFF AGAIN FOR THE 20TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE GREEN MARKET AND ALSO THINK PREVIOUS COUNCILS WHO HELPED US GET IT STARTED.

AND ERIC JAVELIN, THE GODFATHER OF THE GREEN MARKET, UNFORTUNATELY COULDN'T MAKE IT.

BUT WHAT? WHAT A SHINING STAR WE HAVE HERE IN OUR IN OUR HOMETOWN.

SO THANK YOU GUYS SO MUCH FOR EVERYTHING YOU DO TO TO HELP US HAVE A GREAT CITY.

[01:20:02]

UNFORTUNATELY, HE THOUGHT IT STARTED AT 10 INSTEAD OF NINE.

I GUESS I SHOULD HAVE TOLD HIM THAT'S IT.

OK. ANYBODY ELSE WITH ITEMS OF INTEREST? THEN WE MOVE ON TO MAX.

WE'RE JUST STILL WAITING ON THE JUDGE'S RULING AND THE AS IT RELATES TO THE OUTCOME OF

[XI. CITY ATTORNEY REPORT]

WE'RE JUST WAITING. JUDGE HAD A LOT TO READ AND WITH THE INTERVENING HOLIDAYS, I'M SURE SHE'S BACKED UP WITH A PRETTY HEAVY WORKLOAD.

SO HOPEFULLY WE'LL HAVE SOMETHING BY INTO JANUARY AND MID-FEBRUARY, BUT WE'LL SEE.

MOBILITY? YEAH, IT'S ABOUT THE MOBILITY.

YEAH. AND IF THEY DRAG IT OUT LONG ENOUGH AND THE BILLS PASS, IT BECOMES A MOOT POINT.

SO, MAYOR, I DO WANT TO MAKE ONE COMMENT, IF I MAY, JUST TO ANSWER THE QUESTION.

THE FACILITY IS OPEN.

THE OLD PUMP FACILITY IS OPEN FROM FIVE A.M.

TO 11 P.M.

THAT WAS IN OUR STAFF REPORT. I JUST WANTED TO ANSWER YOUR QUESTION.

OK, GREAT.

OK. SO I GUESS THAT'S IT FOR TONIGHT.

SO EVERYBODY, STAY SAFE AND THANK YOU.
