The applicant was proposing to expand the outdoor seating at the Belles Restaurant in Old Port Cove. The proposal was to expand the outdoor seating area from 200 square feet to 1,185 square feet in total for the creation of anew deck around the north perimeter of the restaurant. The applicant was proposing a total of thirty (30) seats for the outdoor dining area. Mr. Milledge stated that the applicant was proposing a new six (6) foot Podocarpus Hedge. Mr. Milledge stated that the applicant has modified their request from their original request. The changes from the previous request was to remove the request of an outside office tenant, converting the 1,185 square foot request to limit outdoor seating to thirty (30) seats, remove the request for a 680 square foot “retail café” from the restaurant and request five (5) overflow spaces instead of sixteen (16). Mr. Milledge reviewed and explained parking data from a parking study and based off of the shared parking agreement the proposed project would have a surplus of thirty-five (35) parking spaces. Mr. Milledge stated that the applicant was requesting a minor change of closing the outdoor seating at 9 p.m. instead of 8 p.m. Mr. Milledge stated that there was no increase in boat slips, no increase to membership, no increase to the building square footage, no changes to the operating agreement which establishes security measures taken at the entry gate or registrations for club members and no changes to parking. Mr. Milledge concluded by thanking staff for their review. Principal Planner Alex Ahrenholz began a staff presentation highlighting and clarifying any areas that Mr. Milledge may have missed in his presentation. Mr. Ahrenholz stated that the actual ordinance language that would be changed would be the elimination of the outdoor seating area being 200 square feet and thirty (30) seats and the elimination of the retail café use area. A six (6) foot hedge was being proposed on one side view of the outdoor seating. Mr. Ahrenholz discussed and explained the existing conditions that would be maintained. Mr. Ahrenholz discussed and explained the required parking agreement stating that 138 parking spaces were required by code and with a parking waiver had been reduced to 122. The proposal would increase the parking spaces to 148 and 130. Mr. Ahrenholz stated that 125 parking spaces were provided on site and an additional 40 spaces of overflow parking were provided at Cove Plaza. Draft Minutes of the Village Council Regular Session held October 28, 2021 Page 3 of 10 ORDINANCE 2021-11 OLD PORT COVE SOUTH MARINA PUD AMENDMENT continued Staff was proposing a condition that if the project was approved, an updated parking study shall be provided to the Village within 12 months of approval to show how parking is functioning. If the parking was not functioning properly, the Village would then work with the applicant to create a shuttle service to Cove Plaza by increasing valet or utilizing other strategies. Mr. Ahrenholz discussed Village code regarding outdoor seating and conditions that would be set in place for noise mitigation. Mr. Ahrenholz concluded by giving the history of meetings and decisions by the Planning Commission regarding the application and stated that there was public support of twenty (20) emails, seven (7) in person and 112 petition signatures. Public opposition was sixteen (16) emails, eighteen (18) in person including the Property Owners Association and Quay South President.

In her presentation Ms. O’Meara discussed the issues and potential impacts the PUD Amendment would have to the residents of Quay South and explained how outside dining would be incompatible with their neighborhood. These residents also addressed the Council with their concerns regarding the proposed Old Port Cove South Marina PUD Amendment: Donald Solodar, 100 Lakeshore Drive Patricia Freidman, 1208 Marine Way, G6 Mr. Hearing of Cotleur & Hearing responded to the comments that were made by residents who did not support the Old Port Cove PUD Amendment. Mr. Hearing stated that he was surprised at the negative response to what equated to five (5) additional tables being added to the restaurant. Mr. Hearing stated that Safe Harbor was an asset to the Village which brings world class boaters and mega yachts from all over the world. The facility was important for serving the Old Port Cove residents and those that come into the harbor. Mr. Hearing stated that square footage was not being increased and boat slips were not being added. The proposal would promote outdoor activities and dining. Mr. Hearing encouraged Council to support the request and pass it on first reading. Mayor Aubrey stated that Old Port Cove was a private, gated residential community mainly occupied by seniors and it was highly unusual to have a commercial activity within a private community. The marina in Old Port Cove was established over forty (40) years ago and was done mainly to provide boat access for the residents and has changed over time to having substantial commercial activity. President Pro Tem Mullinix stated that the proposal was not a good fit for Old Port Cove as a residential community, the Planning Commission recommended denial and the Property Owners Association was also against it, and therefore he did not support the amendment. Vice Mayor Searcy stated that she agreed with President Pro Tem Mullinix stating that Old Port Cove was a residential community and the Planning Commission and residents were opposed to it and therefore did not support the amendment. Vice Mayor Searcy stated that she was willing to table the ordinance instead of denying in order to give the applicant time to come back with a revised proposal.

Chris Ryder, 118 Dory Road, South expressed his concerns about residents disregarding the approved Master Plan and the time and consulting fees that are spent in order to develop and adopt it. Mr. Ryder expressed his concerns with the Village accepting a modified Master Plan showing only the storage area of Anchorage Park that disregards over an acre of waterfront park uplands and over 825 linear feet of platted water frontage and fails to address how the changes would affect the park. Kendra Zellner, 604 Laurel Court, stated that she witnessed a situation in her neighborhood regarding a Village police officer that concerned her and recommended incorporating a certification process of encouraging empathy, compassion and patience in the Village’s police officers and on how they police the community.

This proposal included additional parking on an adjacent parcel to the north that is owned by the City of Palm Beach Gardens, but located within the Village. Ultimately, this proposal never proceeded to Village Council for final approval. In 2015, a proposal for a 34,443 square foot assisted living facility with 56 rooms and 68 beds was denied. Finally, in 2019, an application for 12 single-family homes and 8 townhomes was recommended for approval by the Planning Commission and then was withdrawn prior to review by the Village Council. This request received significant opposition from residents due to the need to amend the Future Land Use designation to increase the maximum density of the property. The applicant is requesting subdivision and preliminary plat review to develop the property into 11 single-family lots. A planned unit development (PUD) has been requested to waive the lot size, lot width, building setback, and fence height Code restrictions for the R-1 Zoning District. The intent of residential planned unit developments is to provide “an added degree of flexibility in the placement and interrelationship of the buildings and uses within the planned unit development”. The applicant has designed the site plan to only have two lots adjacent to the homes on Pepperwood Circle and has created two small public green spaces within the development. The applicant has created a “Design & Diversity Criteria” Guide, which will regulate the development of each individual parcel. The allowable architectural styles shall be Coastal Modern, Florida Contemporary, and Modern, with either concrete tile or metal roofing. The homes are limited to 2 stories or 30 feet in height and are subject to an impervious surface limitation of 70%. However, the impervious surface calculation does not include open space and buffers provided in common areas of the development. There is a minimum landscaping standard for each lot, including 1 oak tree, 1 accent tree, 2 single-trunk palm, 1 double-trunk palm, and 1 triple-trunk palm, as well as shrubs, hedges, and ground cover. Further details about the development can be found in the Planning Commission staff report (Attachment A). Village Master Plan As one of the few remaining vacant parcels within North Palm Beach, the property was included in the Village Master Plan in 2016. The Village Master Plan envisioned the site being used for residential use, with the following qualities: 1. Development clustered to preserve most major trees; 2. Houses that face the street with vehicular access in the rear; 3. The concept plan has a block structure that provides more than one way in and out of the project to allow traffic to disperse. 4. Consideration of a small coffee shop or corner store, which could provide an amenity to this portion of Prosperity Farms Road. The concept plan shown in the Village Master Plan was for a project with 15 houses at 2,700 SF at a density of 5.9 units per acre, or 14 homes with a corner coffee shop and outdoor seating (The concept plan can be found in Attachment B). The coffee shop was considered for a parcel of land that is owned by the City of Palm Beach Gardens, located adjacent to the applicant’s land. Inability to acquire the adjacent parcel has made it difficult to design a project that meets some of the desired qualities noted in the Master Plan. Planning Commission Hearing The Planning Commission initially considered the application on July 13th. At that meeting, the City of Palm Beach Gardens spoke in opposition to the project. The Planning Commission elected to continue the item due to outstanding questions related to the concerns raised by the City. The application went back before the Planning Commission on August 3rd. At the meeting, the City of Palm Beach Gardens and a resident spoke in opposition to the project. The Planning Commission questioned the applicant regarding the concerns raised by the City of Palm Beach Gardens and the resident, and the Commission members were ultimately satisfied with the applicant’s answers. The Planning Commission voted to support the project with a unanimous recommendation of 7-0. The concerns raised by the City of Palm Beach Gardens can be found in Attachment C. Post Planning Commission Updates The property is adjacent to a gopher tortoise preserve owned by the City of Palm Beach Gardens. The applicant started removing gopher tortoises from the property in July, in anticipation of future development approvals. The gopher tortoise removals were permitted by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) and completed in July. The FWC permit recommended the installation of a protective fence to prevent additional gopher tortoises from entering the site. The applicant requested a permit from the Village to clear undergrowth in order to put the protective fence up. The Village explicitly noted that no oak trees shall be removed from the site until final development approval. On August 6, the Village received complaints about tree clearing on the property. A site visit determined that some oaks trees had been removed and the Building Official immediately issued a stop work order. An inspection determined that three oak trees had been removed during the clearing. These three oaks were noted to be in poor health in an arborist’s report and were proposed to be removed prior to construction of the proposed development. However, they were removed prior to approval of the project. This was determined to be a violation of the Village’s subdivision code. The Village took the violation to the Special Magistrate on October 4th and sought the maximum possible penalty of $5,000 per oak tree removed. The applicant came to the Magistrate meeting and noted that the tree removal was a mistake by the tree removal contractor and apologized. The applicant was found in violation and immediately paid the maximum fine of $15,000. Additionally, in light of the early tree removal and negative response from the community, the applicant amended the site and landscape plans. The initial plan that was recommended for approval by the Planning Commission had 12 single-family lots. The applicant removed a lot, increased the minimum lot size and width, and added a 3,000 square foot open space park that will be open to the public. The park will have three oak trees and a public bench. Each lot will now have an oak tree as well. The project previously proposed to preserve, relocate, and install 13 oak trees. The project is now proposed to preserve, relocate, and install 27 oak trees. The open space will be used to satisfy the code requirement that five percent of the gross land area of a subdivision be dedicated to public use. First Reading Summary The proposed project went before Village Council on October 28th for first reading. The proposed ordinance passed on first reading by a vote of 3-2, with Vice-Mayor Searcy and Councilmember Bickel voting no. Waiver Requests The applicant has requested four (4) waivers to the code as part of the PUD. The waivers include: reduced lot sizes, reduced building setbacks, reduced lot widths and a height waiver for the fence in the ROW landscape buffer adjacent to Prosperity Farms Road. Waivers are being requested to accommodate infrastructure and to meet the Comprehensive Plan density allowances. The Village Council must weigh the public benefits provided as part of this application against the waiver of these Code provisions. Benefits provided by the applicant includes a lot layout intended to minimize adverse impacts on adjacent Pepperwood Circle residents.

APPLICATION Location: 10401 Prosperity Farms Rd. SW corner of Allamanda Dr and Prosperity Farms Rd PCN: 68434208000007140;68434208000007160; 68434208000007210; 68434208000005030 Request: An application submitted by Cotleur & Hearing on behalf of Prosperity Village Development LLC for a Subdivision, Planned Unit Development and Preliminary plat approval for 12 single family lots. II. HISTORY The property is approximately 2.34 total acres with a Low-Density Residential Future Land Use (FLU) designation and an R-1 Single Family Zoning designation. The property previously contained a single- family home that was demolished several years ago. Numerous attempts have been made to develop the property in recent years. The property was approved for a 14-unit single family development by the Planning Commission in 2007; however, the development was never constructed. In 2009, an Applicant sought to construct an approximately 25,000 square foot office building. This proposal included additional parking on an adjacent parcel to the north that is owned by the City of Palm Beach Gardens, but located within the Village. Ultimately, this proposal never proceeded to Village Council for final approval. In 2015, a proposal for a 34,443 square foot assisted living facility with 56 rooms and 68 beds was denied. Finally, in 2019, an application for 12 single-family homes and 8 townhomes was recommended for approval by the Planning Commission and then never made it to Village Council before the application was withdrawn. As one of the few remaining vacant parcels within North Palm Beach, the property was included in the Village Master Plan in 2016. The Village Master Plan envisioned the site being used for residential use, with the following qualities: 1. Development clustered to preserve most major trees; 2. Houses that face the street with vehicular access in the rear; 3. The concept plan has a block structure that provides more than one way in and out of the project to allow traffic to disperse. 4. Consideration of a small coffee shop or corner store, which could provide an amenity to this portion of Prosperity Farms Road. The concept plan shown in the Village Master Plan was for a project with 15 houses at 2,700 SF at a density of 5.9 units per acre, or 14 homes with a corner coffee shop and outdoor seating (The concept plan can be found in Attachment A). The coffee shop was considered for a parcel of land that is adjacent to the applicant’s land. III. REQUEST & PROPERTY INFORMATION The applicant is requesting to subdivide the four vacant parcels into a 12-unit single-family gated neighborhood. A landscape buffer will be provided along Prosperity Farms Rd and utilize the existing access point approximately 1/8 mile south of the Allamanda intersection. The applicant is subdividing the lots, developing the streets and infrastructure, then each lot will be sold off individually for custom home construction. The buildings will follow a proposed development design criteria for styling, finishes and massing. The site plan also reflects the setbacks and lot sizes for each parcel that require waivers to the current R-1 Zoning District. August 3rd Planning Commission Updates: This project was presented at the July 13th planning commission meeting and is being brought back with slight changes. The commissioners had various concerns that resulted in tabling the item until they could be addressed or resolved. The first issue dealt with the grading to the adjacent properties. The updated plans have lowered the grade of the houses and the swale ends consistent with the adjacent grades. To preserve the trees, small walls (6-18 inches) are proposed to prevent any fill from needing to go over the existing roots. The wall cross sections can be found on engineering sheets C-16 and C-17. Stacking on to Prosperity Farms Road was addressed and there is enough room for two cars as shown on engineering sheet C-20. The auto turn analysis previously provided was compliant with the Village of North Palm Beach standards and the Florida Fire Prevention Code. Palm Beach Gardens Fire Department raised concerns over the ability to make the turns, so the applicant provided slightly more room by reducing the landscape median at the entrance. During the discussions of the previous meeting, staff has proposed to add three (3) new conditions of approval. The first was added as condition 7 in regards to the height differential between the crown of road and the home site elevations as required by the Florida Building Code. The next was added as condition 18 to prevent gopher tortoises from coming under the fence to the subject site. The final new condition, number 19, was added after discussions with the US Postal Service to locate a central mailbox for the community. Two conditions of approval were amended as requested by the applicant and agreed to by staff. Condition 5 was amended to preserve the landscape median on Prosperity Farms Rd. that the County has proposed to remove. Condition 16 was amended for the timing of the site work during permitting at the applicant’s request. The only change to the attachments of this staff report was the addition of the comment responses in attachment B. The submittal document file includes unedited design criteria and rendering flipbook, but the site, landscape, and engineering plans have been updated to reflect the changes described in Attachment B. A summary of the changes the applicant has made to the plans, per the comments given at the July 13th meeting, can be found in Attachment B. Future Land Use (FLU) Designation Zoning Designation Low Density Residential R-1 Single Family Dwelling District The following table summarizes the uses, FLU designations, and zoning districts of the surrounding properties: Zoning Future Land Use Existing Use EAST R1 Single Family Low Density Residential Single Family Residential (across Prosperity Farms Rd) NORTH R1 Single Family Low Density Residential Vacant (owned by City of Palm Beach Gardens) SOUTH R1 Single Family Low Density Residential Single Family Residential WEST P/I Preserve Conservation Vacant (City of Palm Beach Gardens) IV. PUBLIC INPUT AND NOTICES Public Notices: The sign was posted on the property on June 20, 2021 for the proposed application. The legal ad was advertised in the Palm Beach Post on July 6, 2021 and courtesy notices were mailed to property owners within 500ft of the subject site on June 25, 2021 for the July 13, 2021 Planning Commission meeting A public meeting was conducted by the applicant with members of the adjacent neighborhoods on May 20th in the Obert room of the Village Library. The residents in attendance were generally supportive of the project, particularly compared to the most recent proposal, which had more units and required a Future Land Use Amendment to increase density. There were some comments related to the design that resulted in some changes to the site plan layout and ultimately led to the preservation of more oak trees along the property lines. Since the City of Palm Beach Gardens owns property within 500 feet of the site, they were notified of the proposed PUD. A letter was sent by Palm Beach Gardens staff with concerns of buffering the preserve area and creating more space for fire truck turn around (see Attachment C). V. ANALYSIS OF APPLICANT’S REQUEST A. Subdivision The property is currently comprised of four unplatted parcels. The applicant is proposing to subdivide them into twelve (12) lots ranging in size from 4,739 SF to 7,286 SF. The Low Density Residential land use designation permits up to 5.8 units per acre. With a total of 2.34 acres, there are a maximum of thirteen (13) homes allowed. The homeowner’s association will maintain the main entrance, road, and perimeters of the development. The preliminary plat has been submitted for review per Section 36-10, which requires Planning Commission recommendations to the Village Council for final approval. Subsection 5 specifies that “particular attention shall be given to the arrangement, location and width of streets, their relation to the topography of the land, water supply, sewage disposal, drainage, lot sizes and arrangement, the present or future development of adjoining lands, and the requirements of the comprehensive plan and zoning ordinance.” “Following the hearing on the preliminary plat, the planning commission shall recommend to the village council one (1) of the following actions: 1. Issue a certificate of preliminary plat approval. 2. Issue a certificate of conditional plat approval, subject to any necessary modifications which shall be noted on the preliminary plat or attached to it in writing. 3. Disapproval of the preliminary plat or any portion thereof, stating the reasons for disapproval in writing. The subdivider may reapply for preliminary plat approval in accordance with provisions of this section. B. Planned Unit Development (PUD) with Waivers The proposed development does not meet five (5) of the current regulations of the R1 zoning district, thus necessitating waivers, which are allowed through the PUD process per Section 45-51. Per Section 45-35.1, the intent of a PUD is to allow: “an added degree of flexibility in the placement and interrelationship of the buildings and uses within the planned unit development, together with the implementation of new design concepts.” The Planning Commission is required to study the impact of the waivers and make recommendations to the Village Council for final approval. Analysis of Waivers Requested: The applicant is requesting five waivers from code provisions in the table and further described in detail below: Code Section Required Proposed Waiver Request Comments/Analysis Section 24-27 C Lot Size 7,500 SF minimum lot area 4,739 SF 2,707 SF Staff: proposed smaller than typical lot sizes for the village to maximize the amount of homes allowed in low-density residential land use. Section 24-27 D Building Setbacks Front- 25’ Rear- 20’ Side-10’ Side Street-20’ Front- 20’ Rear- 10’ Side-5’ Side Street-8’ Front- 5’ Rear- 10’ Side-5’ Side Street-12’ Staff: smaller setbacks to account for the smaller lot sizes which will allow a typical new construction home to be accommodated. Section 24-27C- Lot Width 75’ Minimum lot width 50’ 25’ Staff: In conjunction with the smaller lot sizes overall. Section 25-2 & 45-36.B Pool setback 7.5’ 5’ 2.5’ Staff: This waiver would require the 2.5 ft walk around to be provided in the drainage easement Section 45-36D Fence height 4’ high within front setback 6’ high within setback from ROW 2’ Staff: This waiver would only apply to the fence within the ROW landscape buffer 1. Waiver for lot size reduction a. The applicant has 2.34 acres of land with an underlying future land use designation of 5.8 units per acre allowable. A maximum of thirteen (13) units are permitted on the property given the current lot sizes allowed in the code, but this does not take into account the streets, entrance and setback provided from the roadway. In order to provide these necessary functions and maintain the density, the applicant had to reduce the lot sizes. Lot 10 is proposed to be the smallest at 4,739 SF and the largest will be 7,286 SF. 2. Waiver for building setbacks a. With the reduction of the lot sizes, building setbacks must also be reduced to maintain a normal sized home for the area. The lots will still maintain 30% pervious surfaces after accounting for the driveway and the pool. 3. Waiver for lot width a. This waiver runs concurrently with the lot size reduction. Lot widths are proposed to be reduced to fit all of the lots into the development. The smallest of the lots will be 50 ft wide. 4. Waiver for pool setback a. Pools are required a rear setback of 7.5 feet in the rear and 5 feet on the sides. The reduced setback in the rear is partly due to the reduced lot sizes and building setbacks. With a rear setback of 10 feet, only 5 feet of pool area would be permitted. A reduced pool setback provides some design flexibility. Plus, the rear of each property will abut either a natural area, right-of-way or another lot in this community, therefore an adverse impact to the existing homes on Pepperwood is not foreseen as the side setbacks will remain in place. 5. Waiver for higher fence along Prosperity Farms Rd. a. Six (6) foot powder coated black aluminum picket fence is proposed along t he back of the landscape buffer. Four (4) foot fences are permitted, but 6-foot fences are installed along Prosperity Farms Rd for both the Harbour Isles and Prosperity Harbor neighborhoods. C. Site Plan Analysis a. Traffic Analysis According to the traffic statement prepared by Kimley-Horn, there are 120 daily trips anticipated with a total of 9 ingress/egress during the morning peak hour and 13 ingress/egress during the evening peak hour. This level of traffic exempts the development from requiring concurrency with Palm Beach County Traffic Division. Additionally, it is small enough to not require a turn lane either from the North or South. b. Site Design The proposed neighborhood utilizes an existing curb cut to along Prosperity Farms Rd. Though there have been past discussions of creating an additional entrance to Allamanda Dr, the City of Palm Beach Gardens owns the property to the immediate north and designated it as conservation. Therefore, the site only faces one street and needed to utilize a unique design for cars to navigate to each lot. The main entrance will have an unguarded gate with a call box for guests. A separate knox box will be available for police and fire to answer emergency calls as necessary. The lots were oriented to have the rear of each property face the preserve areas and none of the backyards of the homes will face the existing homes on Pepperwood Circle. According to the applicant, the lots were designed to be of varying sizes to encourage different types of architecture which eliminates “cookie cutter” development. c. Easements There is an existing Seacoast Utility Authority (SUA) easement along Prosperity Farms road that will remain and another easement that is obsolete which will be abandoned. SUA has requested a 20-foot easement to the proposed lift station which will run along the southern property line. The north and west property lines will have a four (4) foot drainage easement which will provide drainage for the neighborhood. Though in individual properties, it will be dedicated in the plat, recorded into the declaration of covenants and maintained by the homeowner’s association. A 10-foot utility easement is also proposed in the front of every yard which will include the gas line, water and sewer. d. Landscaping The existing site is largely undeveloped, with a small clearing where a single family home was previously located. An environmental assessment was provided for the property with the previously denied assisted living facility application in 2014 (Attachment D). That assessment declared the 2.3-acre site as “disturbed lands”, which is to say that there are no significant environmental habitats (wetlands, scrub, etc). The report stated, “that the vegetation within this parcel is comprised of a combination of native plants, cultivated landscape and invasive exotic species and some of the natives have been planted here as opposed to being naturally occurring.” The report further states that “oak and cabbage palm are the predominate native species” and that “Invasive, exotic Brazilian pepper dominates the midstory layer”. Section 36-38.1 of the Village Code of Ordinances details the process for land clearing and vegetation protection. All native vegetation is required to be preserved whenever possible. The applicant is proposing to preserve eight live oaks along the perimeters and relocate three live oaks to the entrance island. The landscape architect determined that the large oaks were of lower quality which did not necessitate preserving or relocating. The Village sought the opinion of an independent arborist, who conducted a report which detailed the quality of the seven largest oak trees (>20 inch diameter trunks) (Attachment E). The report found that all of the trees were of poor or fair condition with the highest rated one at about 40% viability. D. Appearance Plan Compliance Sec. 6-36. - Powers and duties of planning commission concerning the appearance code. The planning commission shall have the following powers and duties: 1. To hold public hearings on and make recommendations for amendments to the appearance plan. 2. To consult with and cooperate with the planning and zoning advisory board, the beautification committee and other village departments, and any other municipal or governmental bodies on matters affecting the appearance of the village. 3. To study exterior design drawings, landscape and site plans and materials for any proposed public works or public improvements and to make recommendations to the council or village manager as to the architectural or aesthetic aspects thereof. De Minimis 4. To study and review preliminary and final plats and make recommendations to the planning and zoning advisory board and the village council. 5. To hold hearings, when required, on the issuance of certificates of appropriateness as provided in section 6-59, in connection with questions pertaining to applications for building permits and to issue or deny such certificates pursuant to the provisions of such section 6-59. Sec. 6-58. - Action of planning commission. Upon consideration of an application, the planning commission shall issue a certificate of appropriateness to the community development department upon a finding that the plan conforms to the village appearance plan and that the proposed building or structure is appropriate to, and compatible with, the character of the immediate neighborhood and will not cause a substantial depreciation in property values. If the planning commission determines that these criteria are not met, the planning commission shall provide such advice, counsel, suggestions and recommendations on matters pertaining to aesthetics as it may deem necessary to guide the prospective applicant in the development of a plan which would comply with the requirements and purposes of the appearance plan. If preliminary hearings have been held on the project for which application is being made, and preliminary approval has been issued by the planning commission as provided in section 6-56, the planning commission shall issue a certificate of appropriateness immediately, provided that the final drawings, plans and material as presented comply in all respects with the preliminary presentation upon which the preliminary approval was based. Sec. 6-59. - Approval by planning commission. The planning commission shall issue a certificate of appropriateness upon a concurring vote of at least three (3) members. No building or other permit, otherwise required under the ordinances of the village, for the erection, construction, alteration or repair of any building or structure in a multiple-dwelling, commercial or public zoning district shall be approved by the community development director except upon the granting of a certificate of appropriateness by the planning commission. The foregoing requirements shall not preclude the issuance of a building permit without such certificate if the community development director shall determine that no external architectural feature as defined in section 6-31 is involved in the work for which the building permit is sought. According to the applicant’s justification statement, the project is meeting the intent of the appearance plan. Their descriptions of each section have been provided in the attached design criteria. Section 45-35.1. IV.-Action of planning commission A. After a study of an application for a planned unit development and the required public hearing, the planning commission shall make a recommendation to the village council to approve, approve as modified, or reject the application based upon the followi ng standards: 1. The proposed use or uses shall be of such location, size and character as to be in harmony with the appropriate and orderly development of the zoning district in which situated and shall not be detrimental to the orderly development of adj acent zoning districts. 2. The location and size of the proposed use or uses, the nature and intensity of the principal use and all accessory uses, the site layout and its relation to streets giving access to it, shall be such that traffic to and from the use or uses, and the assembly of persons in connection therewith, will not be hazardous or inconvenient to the neighborhood nor conflict with the normal traffic of the neighborhood. In applying this standard, the commission shall consider, among other things: convenient routes for pedestrian traffic, particularly of children; the relationship of the proposed project to main traffic thoroughfares and to street and road intersections; and, the general character and intensity of the existing and potential development of the neighborhood. In addition, where appropriate, the commission shall determine that noise, vibration, odor, light, glare, heat, electromagnetic or radioactive radiation, or other external effects, from any source whatsoever which is connected with the proposed use, will not have a detrimental effect upon neighboring property or the neighboring area in general. 3. The location and height of buildings, the location, nature and height of walls and fences, and the nature and extent of landscaping of the site shall be such that they will not hinder or discourage the proper development and use of adjacent land and buildings nor impair the value thereof. 4. The standards of density and required open space in the proposed project are at least equal to those required by this ordinance in the zoning district in which the proposed project is to be located, except as may be permitted for key redevelopment sites through subsection 45-35.1.VIII 5. There shall be no uses within the proposed project which are n ot permitted uses in the zoning district in which the proposed project is to be located. Exception: Mixed uses may be allowed if the existing zoning district usage is commercial. The mixed uses shall only be residential and mercantile or residential and b usiness. B. The commission may recommend such changes or modifications in the proposed plan as are needed to achieve conformity to the standards as herein specified. The reasons for the changes or modifications shall be included in the recommendation. C. The commission shall not recommend the project unless it finds that all of the standards as herein specified have been met. If there are minor modifications to the provisions of this chapter, the commission may recommend its approval at the same time. It sh all also, where it deems appropriate and necessary, recommend to the village council those conditions to be imposed upon the project, its operation, or both, that are needed to assure adherence to the aforesaid standards . V.

Update August 12, 2021 City of Palm Beach Garden’s Staff attended the July 13 and August 3, 2021, Village of North Palm Beach Planning Commission meetings to raise concerns and objections related to the Prosperity Village development. Those concerns and objections were outlined in letters sent to the Village ’s Community Development Director on July 9 and August 3, 2021, and are contained at the end of the Memorandum. At the August 3, 2021 Planning Commission meeting, the Commission voted 7- 0 to recommend approval of the project to the Village Council, despite the concerns stated in this memorandum and stated at the Planning Commission meeting. City Staff continues to object to this project and respectfully request the Village Council consider these objections and have the Applicant address the City’s concerns through modifications to the project design. Please see below. 1. The Palm Beach Gardens Fire Department has strong concerns with its ability to provide a Fire-Rescue response through the City and Village’s mutual aid agreement based on the current site design that does not provide the required and proper turn around design for dead-end streets pursuant to 18.2.3.5.4 of the Florida State Fire Code. The site, as currently designed, would require Palm Beach Gardens Fire- Rescue vehicles to backup approximately 240 feet, which exceeds the 150 MEMORANDUM CITY OF PALM BEACH GARDENS TO: Jeremy Hubsch, AICP, Community Development Director Village of North Palm Beach CC: Natalie Crowley, AICP, Director of Planning and Zoning DATE: July 9, 2021 Updated August 3, 2021 Updated August 12, 2021 FROM: Peter Hofheinz, AICP, Assistant Director of Planning and Zoning SUBJECT: Proposed Prosperity Village development at Prosperity Farms Road and Allamanda Drive adjacent to City owned property. Page 2 of 5 feet in length for dead-end streets, before being able to conduct an exiting turn movement. “Access roads more than 150-feet in length shall be provided with approved provisions for fire apparatuses to turn around.” (See attached Florida State Fire Code) The proposed design impacts the ability of fire/rescue personnel to access the dwelling units effectively if required by the Automatic Aid Agreements between governments. 2. The project design continues to only provide approximately 21 -feet of vehicle stacking from the visitor callbox to the Prosperity Farms right-of- way line. This is a limited amount of vehicle stacking that cannot reasonably accommodate more than one vehicle. Without a turn lane, there will be inevitable vehicle overflow onto Prosperity Farms Road. 3. The City respectfully requests the Applicant to present and include Best Management Practices, b0th during potential construction and after , to protect the City’s Upland Preserve to the west. 4. The City respectfully requests the Applicant to provide a landscape buffer along the project’s west boundary that abuts the City’s upland preserve and along the projects north boundary that abuts property owned by the City of Palm Beach Gardens. 5. The project design does not include any onsite open space and/or recreational amenities. 6. The project design does not include a location for a United States Postal Service mail kiosk on the site plan. A Condition of Approval has been proposed requiring the Applicant to provide a location on the site plan prior to the issuance of vertical construction permits. The location of this mail kiosk is significant since its location may impact Fire-Rescue maneuverability on site. The proposed project design is requesting certain waivers from the Village’s R-1 development standards including reductions in the required building front, rear, and side setbacks, a reduced pool setback, and a reduced minimum lot size setback, that do not appear to be justified by any measure of reasonable criteria from the adopted Village Code. The requested building setback waivers will further impact the City’s Fire- Rescue Department to respond to any incident(s) by severely limiting fire apparatus maneuverability and access to rear yards. Reduced front setbacks will limit driveway lengths ultimately leading to residents parking within the street. Reduced side setbacks will not allow proper clearance around mechanical equipment (A/C units, pool equipment, etc.) for first responder access to rear yards. Page 3 of 5 Not providing a landscape buffer adjacent to the City’s upland preserve and property to the north has the potential to lead to residents dumping trash and debris over the fence, draining or emptying pools into the City’s property, or illegally trespassing on to City property during unauthorized times. The limited vehicle stacking from the callbox will have waiting vehicles stacking into the Prosperity Farms right-of-way ultimately blocking traffic. City Staff is willing to work with the Village to address these site plan issues. End Update Update August 2, 2021 City of Palm Beach Garden’s Staff attended the July 13, 2021 Village of North Palm Beach Planning Commission meeting to raise concerns and objections related to the Proposed Prosperity Village development. Those concerns and objections were outlined in a letter sent to the Village’s Community Development Director on July 9, 2021 and are contained at the end of this Memorandum for the record. At the July 13, 2021 Planning Commission meeting, further concerns and objections were brought before the Village’s Planning Commission based on discussion during the meeting related to the buffering and stormwater drainage from this proposed project onto the property owned by the City of Palm Beach Gardens to the west and north of this site, and the vehicle queuing/stacking from this project’s proposed call box location to the Prosperity Farms Road right-of-way. 1. The City still has concerns that there is no buffer proposed against the City of Palm Beach Gardens-owned property to the west that is designated as a gopher tortoise preserve. The project needs to provide a buffer on their own property. 2. Additionally, there is no buffering being proposed against the City of Palm Beach Gardens-owned property to the north. The project needs to provide a buffer on their own property. 3. As discussed at the Planning Commission meeting, the City is concerned with the limited stacking/queuing distance from the project’s entry callbox to the Prosperity Farms Road right-of-way. The project should meet the minimum stacking/queuing distance required by Palm Beach County. 4. The Palm Beach Gardens Fire Department requires R-20 turn radii to adequately accommodate fire equipment. The proposed plan indicated turn radii of 25 and 30 degrees. The proposed design impacts the ability of fire/rescue personnel to access the dwelling units effectively if required by the Automatic Aid Agreements betwe en governments. Page 4 of 5 5. The Palm Beach Gardens Fire Department requires the roadways to be at least 20’ wide and the dead-end turnarounds must be 60’ to adequately accommodate fire equipment. The proposed design impacts the ability of fire/rescue personnel to access the dwelling units effectively if required by the Automatic Aid Agreements between governments. 6. The Applicant has not included or identified Best Management Practices to protect the City’s Gopher Tortoise Upland Preserve and property to the north from construction activities and future residents. 7. The proposed site plan continues to have limited open space or and no recreation facilities for residents. End Update The City has received Public Notice of a Zoning Change petition going to the Planning Commission hearing in the Village of North Palm Beach on July 13, 2021. The petition is for a zoning change from Low Density Residential to Low Density Residential with a PUD overlay to build 12 dwelling units on 2.335 acres. Several waivers are requested as well. The proposed development would consist of 12 single family custom homes with the main access from Prosperity Farms Road. The home lots will vary in size and the architecture will consist of Modern, Coastal Modern, and Florida Contemporary. The City reviewed a previously proposed application and provided comments on August 1, 2019. The proposed site plan consisted of 12 single family homes and two 4-unit townhomes. Please see updated comments regarding the revised site plan. The City has the following objections and comments on the proposed development. The City requests the petition be revised accordingly. 1. No buffer is proposed against the City of Palm Beach Gardens-owned property to the west that is designated as a gopher tortoise preserve. The project needs to provide a buffer on their own property. 2. No buffer is proposed against the City of Palm Beach Gardens -owned property to the north. The project needs to provide a buffer on their own property. 3. The Palm Beach Gardens Fire Department requires R-20 turn radii to adequately accommodate fire equipment. The proposed plan does not indicate the turn radii. The proposed design impacts the ability of fire/rescue personnel to access the dwelling units effectively if required by the Automatic Aid Agreements between governments. 4. The Palm Beach Gardens Fire Department requires the roadways to be at least 20’ wide and the dead-end turnarounds must be 60’ to adequately accommodate fire equipment. The proposed design impacts the ability of fire/rescue personnel to access the dwelling units effectively if required by the Automatic Aid Agreements between governments. Page 5 of 5 5. The two fire hydrants appear to be placed well and should be adequate if they have a minimum flow of 1,000 gpm. 6. Has the applicant identified Best Management Practices for construction to protect gopher tortoises on site or other conservation items? 7. The proposed site plan contains limited open space or recreation facilities for residents. PROSPERITY VILLAGE Site Plan Review Justification Statement April 7, 2021 Revised October 13, 2021 INTRODUCTION On behalf of the Applicant, Prosperity Village Development, LLC, Cotleur & Hearing is requesting site plan approval and planned unit development approval for 11 single-family dwelling lots on the west site of Prosperity Farms Road. PROJECT CONTACT Cotleur & Hearing Attn: Donaldson Hearing/David Milledge 1934 Commerce Lane, Suite 1 Jupiter, Florida 33458 Office (561) 747-6336 Direct (561) 406-1002 Fax (561) 747-1377 Prosperity Village Development, LLC Attn: Dan Catalfumo 4001 Design Center Drive, Suite 110 Palm Beach Gardens, FL 33410 Office (561) 694-3000 Email: dhearing@cotleur-hearing.com; dmilledge@cotleur-hearing.com HISTORY This site has no previous village approvals; however, it did have a single-family residence which was demolished in 2008. REQUEST 1. Rezoning from R-1 to R-1 with an underlying PUD 2. Site Plan approval for the proposed neighborhood consisting of 12 residential dwelling lots. Surrounding Land Use and Zoning The current zoning of R-1 and future land use of low-density residential (LDR) are adequate to provide the proposed single-family use and the proposed density of 12 units. However, to provide flexibility towards the standard zoning development standards, Applicant is requesting a PUD to achieve better overall design for the proposed neighborhood. DIRECTION ZONING DESIGNATION FUTURE LAND USE DESIGNATION EXISTING USE EAST R-1 (PUD) LDR Residential NORTH R-1 LDR Preserve Area SOUTH R-1 LDR Residential WEST P/I (PBG) CONS (PBG) Preserve Area PROSPERITY VILLAGE PUD and Site Plan Review CH # 210303 Revised August 8, 2021 Page 2 of 6 Overview of Request Within the R-1 zoning district, single-family dwellings with accessory buildings customarily incident thereto, are permitted. The purpose of this request is to provide greater flexibility in designing a small, 11 lot subdivision through the creation of a Planned Unit Development (PUD). Part of the request to include an underlying PUD is to provide relief from the typical setback requirements, reduction in the minimum lot size, and reduction in minimum lot width. Relief from such development standards will allow a lot configuration which would allow sidewalks and a central tree-island in the middle of the neighborhood, as well as two open space areas accessible by the public. Pursuant to code section 45-35.1, creating the PUD adds a degree of flexibility in the placement and interrelationship of the buildings and uses within the PUD with implementation of new design concepts. The proposed 11 lot neighborhood will not have a negative impact on the surrounding areas. Rather, the project would help with limiting the number of tear-downs happening in other neighborhoods by giving prospective owners a place to build a new custom home. Project Description This 2.33-acre site is generally surrounded by residential uses with a preserve area immediately to the west and a vacant parcel to the north of the property. A resident or guest would access the neighborhood from a single access point off Prosperity Farms Road. Adjacent to the road, an aluminum fence is provided within a substantial landscape buffer. The entrance into the community has a callbox and an escape turn-around before entering through the gate in order to reduce conflicts and prevent unnecessary stacking. The callbox would include a Knox switch and Click 2 Enter module to allow emergency services to gain access to the neighborhood. Residents would use an RFID or similar technology to bypass the callbox and enter the site. Once entering the gate, a vehicle would enter onto a one-way circle roadway network leading back to Prosperity Farms Road through the exiting gate. USPS, FedEx, UPS, DHL, and Amazon will be given specific codes to use at the callbox to allow for expediate access into the neighborhood. These codes will be identified on mailing labels and will renewed every 30 days. City personal, including garbage collection, will have a dedicated code, as well, to further provide convenience. Generally, all of the lots have unique dimensions with the smallest lot being 55’ x 115’ and the largest lot being 69’ x 112’. These varying lots will provide a variety of designs and layouts to the neighborhood which is in stark contrast to typical “cookie-cutter” neighborhood. Immediately south of the project is the Pepperwood Circle neighborhood (“Pepperwood”) which consists of 1- and 2-story homes. Lots 1 and 7 would be the only two properties abutting Pepperwood. While these houses may be up to 2 stories in height, it should be noted that a building located on Lot 1 would be 47 feet from the house located at 2537 Pepperwood Circle which is a 2-story building. A potential house on Lot 7 would be over 53 feet from the house located at 2511 Pepperwood Circle due to a SUA easement along the southern property line. The proposed project and Pepperwood are both single-family residential neighborhoods and are inherently compatible, let alone the fact that these is considerable distance between the existing residences and the proposed buildings and that 2-story buildings already exist along Pepperwood Circle. The proposed lots will be graded to promote positive flow of stormwater runoff towards the neighborhood’s main drainage infrastructure. With a maximum proposed impervious area of 70%, PROSPERITY VILLAGE PUD and Site Plan Review CH # 210303 Revised August 8, 2021 Page 3 of 6 the proposed yard drains would provide proper drainage of these lots and the overall neighborhood. This neighborhood’s design will be regulated through the enclosed design guidelines. These guidelines require architecture styles of Modern, Coastal Modern, and Florida Contemporary. The guidelines provide broad development standards for such matters as driveway widths and configurations, fences and gates, uses, pools, generators, accessory structures, and landscaping. These guidelines further explain the process of neighborhood approval before any permits can be sought from the Village. In addition to these guidelines, a color and material exhibit will be provided from which any custom home must adhere to. This further creates a cohesive yet unique neighborhood. Please see the enclosed traffic analysis for the proposed use. Based on the current zoning district and a theoretical development of 12 single family homes, this potential development would create 120 daily trips with 9 net AM peak and 13 net PM peak-hour trips. As reflected on the traffic analysis for the purposed project, this project has a de minimis impact on traffic. Based on the revised plan of 11 single family homes, the anticipated traffic generated would be even less. Moreover, this project would satisfy the desire for infill development at the corner of Prosperity Farms Road and Allamanda Drive as described in the new Village Master Plan. It should be noted that although the master plan envisions pedestrian connectivity from the project to Allamanda Drive by way of a pathway through the preserve area, the City of Palm Beach Gardens had previously objected to such a pedestrian pathway. Gopher Tortoises It has been identified that this property may have the presence of Gopher Tortoises and therefore Applicant will follow the Florida Wildlife Commission’s (FWC) Gopher Tortoise Permitting Guidelines wherein any located burrows will be flagged and classified. Proper permits from FWC will be obtained by Applicant, if necessary, for the relocation of any Gopher Tortoises to a long- term protected recipient sites consistent with FWC’s guidelines. Village Master Plan Within the Village’s Master Plan, the southwest corner of Allamanda Drive and Prosperity Farms Road envisions infill development consistent with Applicant’s proposal. This southwest corner includes the preserve area owned by the City of Palm Beach Gardens and the project site. The master plan calls out four qualities: 1) Development is clustered to preserve most major trees; Applicant is proposing to relocate trees of significance to a dedicated tree island which would be the crown jewel of the neighborhood. It would be the focal point as a resident enters the community and would be easily visible from Prosperity Farms Road. Additionally, Applicant will be adding new Oak trees to the main open area park. 2) Houses face the street with vehicular access in the rear; The proposed plan provides for a traditional approach to lot configuration and building placement. Having vehicular access in the rear reduces the useability of a backyard and creates additional road surfaces throughout the neighborhood. PROSPERITY VILLAGE PUD and Site Plan Review CH # 210303 Revised August 8, 2021 Page 4 of 6 3) Block pattern to disperse traffic flows; Unlike the Master Plan, Applicant does not own the preserve area and therefore has a smaller land area than envisioned by the Master Plan. With a smaller land area, a block pattern could not be achieved, however, Applicant has proposed a lot layout to allow for an intuitive traffic pattern. 4) Optional small commercial outparcel. Applicant is not proposing a commercial aspect to this development, nor is such commercial element consistent with or compatible to the surrounding residential properties. Sec. 45-35.1 – Planned Unit Development The statement of intent describing the district requires a minimum of 1 acre and provides a degree of flexibility in the placement and interrelationship of the buildings and uses within the planned unit development, together with the implementation of new design concepts. This site is implementing a unique design for the better placement of residential lots on the site to fully utilize the property. The request to be a PUD does not increase the density of the site. Additionally, it does not restrict the open space, air, or light that would be provided in other zoning districts. There are only three items not meeting the code requirements of the R-1 district, which is the setback requirements, the minimum lot width and minimum lot size. Public Benefit As part of this subdivision, Applicant has coordinated with Seacoast Utility Authority for the abandonment of the existing lift station in order to install a new lift station which would correct existing deficiencies of the existing lift station. Applicant has proposed a 20’ easement and considerable amount of land to properly locate this equipment. This lift station would provide the village and the surrounding neighborhoods with a substantial public benefit. In addition to the lift station, Applicant is proposing two open area parks within the subdivision which are accessible from Prosperity Farms Road to be enjoyed with the public. These parks provide open space for residents to enjoy the outdoors while still within the comfort of the subdivision. For the security of those who live within the subdivision, gates which grant access internally will be outfitted with code-locking mechanisms so that the general public may access the parks but not the subdivision. WAIVER REQUESTS UNDER PUD Pursuant to Section 45-35.1II(A)(2), below please find specific waivers and the intent behind such requests: WAIVER TABLE CODE SECTION REQUIRED PROPOSED WAIVER REQUEST Section 24-27D – Building Setbacks Front – 25’ Front – 20’ -5’ (Front) Rear – 20’ Rear – 10’ -10’ (Rear) Side – 10’ Side – 5’ -5’ (Side) Side Street – 20’ Side Street – 10’ -10’ (Side Street) PROSPERITY VILLAGE PUD and Site Plan Review CH # 210303 Revised August 8, 2021 Page 5 of 6 Section 24-27C – Lot Width 75’ minimum lot width 55’ -20’ Section 24-27C – Lot Area 7,500 SF minimum lot area 5,681 -1,819 SF Section 25-2 & 45- 36B - Pool Setback 7.5' 5' -2.5' Section 45-36(D) - Fence Setback/Height 4' height within front setback 6' height within front setback of subdivision only +2' 1. Minimum Lot Width – Section 24-27C Village code for the R-1 zoning district requires homes to have a minimum 75’ lot width. The proposed lot widths range from 50’ to 69’ which will still allow for large homes to be built on each lot. The average lot width is 60’. The smaller lot widths will allow for a quaint, village-feel within the neighborhood. 2. Minimum Lot Area – Section 24-27C Per village code, the minimum building site area (also known as lot area) for each single- family dwelling shall be 7,500 SF. Prosperity Village will have varying lot sizes which will range from 7,614 SF to 5,681 SF. While some lots have a uniform size, the majority of the lot sizes will be unique amongst each other. This allows for different architectural styles and footprints and clearly breaks the mold of a typical standardized neighborhood where all lots are identical. 3. Building Setback – Section 45-27D The specific setback requirements pursuant to the R-1 zoning district require a front setback of 25’, rear setback of 20’, side setback of 10’, and a side-street setback of 20’. Applicant is proposing setbacks as follows: 20’ front setback; 10’ rear setback; 5’ side setback; and 10’ side-street setback. This request is in tandem with the other waiver requests found above. With smaller lots, the standard setbacks account for a larger percentage of the lot which is no longer buildable. Smaller setbacks allow for more of a small village-feel and a sense of belonging. 4. Pool Setback – Section 25-2 & 45-36(B) The proposed project is unique in that it has a preserve area on two sides of the property. This area provides substantial buffering from the surrounding uses and as such the required 7.5’ setback for pools is not warranted. Applicant proposes a 5’ setback to provide greater flexibility in the design of an owner’s pool on their lot. Pools are mainstay in Florida so Applicant wants to ensure the backyards of each lot could accommodate a pool. 5. Fence Setback/Height – Section 45-36(D) PROSPERITY VILLAGE PUD and Site Plan Review CH # 210303 Revised August 8, 2021 Page 6 of 6 Section 45-36(D) permits only a 4’ fence within the front yard or side yard for a corner lot. Applicant is proposing a 6’ fence along Prosperity Farms Road. This proposed fence would be 10’ from the neighbor’s property line and over 17’ from edge of pavement of Prosperity Farms Road. This proposal is consistent with other gated neighborhoods within the Village. CONCLUSION The proposed neighborhood will provide custom home builders and future residents the opportunity to be part of a cohesive yet unique neighborhood. The project is not requesting additional density, however, is seeking waivers to properly layout the proposed residential lots in a logical and efficient manner. We look forward to the delivering an amazing project which will serve as a beautiful addition to this one-of-a-kind village.

Lukasik, Village Manager FROM: Leonard G. Rubin, Village Attorney Jeremy Hubsch, Community Development Director DATE: October 28, 2021 SUBJECT: ORDINANCE 2nd Reading – Amending Chapter 2 of the Village Code to modify the procedures for civil code enforcement citations. The Village Council first authorized the use of civil citations for code enforcement through the adoption of Ordinance No. 2009-11 on September 10, 2009. While the citation process has not been utilized often in the past, Staff is proposing modifications to the Code to clarify the procedures applicable to the issuance of citations and make them slightly more user friendly. Specifically, the attached Ordinance provides as follows:  Authorizes the park ranger to issue code citations in Village parks;  Substitutes the Code Enforcement Special Magistrate for the Code Enforcement Board; and  Clarifies that a person who fails to request a hearing, fails to pay the fine within the time specified or unsuccessfully challenges the citation is subject to the maximum civil penalty of up to $500.00 plus administrative costs. At its October 28, 2021 meeting, the Village Council adopted the Ordinance on first reading without modification. While Staff originally indicated that this item would be accompanied by a Resolution updating the list of Code sections that may be enforced by citation and adopting a new fine schedule, Staff is still coordinating civil citations with a new parking citation procedures and developing the required forms.

Lukasik, Village Manager FROM: Zakariya M. Sherman, Director of Leisure Services DATE: November 18, 2021 SUBJECT: ORDINANCE 2nd Reading – Amending Chapter 20 (Parks, Playgrounds and Recreation) of the Village Code of Ordinances to adopt a new Section 20-10 prohibiting Fires and Grills Village Staff is recommending the adoption of an Ordinance amending Chapter 20 (Parks, Playgrounds and Recreation) of the Village Code of Ordinances to adopt a new section prohibiting fires and grills within the limits of any of the Village’s park or recreational areas, including the North Palm Beach Country Club. Background: There have been a number of recent incidents involving people using charcoal or gas grills in Village parks, including Lakeside Park and Anchorage Park. Grills are potential safety hazards due to their ability to burn, char, mar or blemish Village property, including pavilions, picnic tables, benches, trees, and grass. Furthermore, charcoal or propane tanks left in the grassy areas or on the beach without being disposed of properly interfere with the recreational use of such property by Village residents and other members of the public. Staff has received multiple complaints from residents regarding fires and grills in Village parks or recreational areas:  Hot coals dumped on the grass at Lakeside Park, burning a small patch of grass;  Hot coals dumped on the beach at Lakeside Park, posing a safety hazard for those walking on the sand;  Disposable charcoal grills left in the parks on the grass or beach, along with their packaging; and  At Anchorage Park, there have been reports of people grilling under the pavilion. Although the Police Department has assisted Parks and Recreation staff by enforcing existing parks-related ordinances, a clear prohibition of fires and the use of grills that aren’t provided by the Village (ie permanently installed grills) will provide staff with another tool to prevent potential safety hazards and maintenance-related issues in the Village’s park and recreation areas. Ordinance Detail: No person, other than members of village staff or licensed contractors act ing under the authority of the Village, shall build, light or cause to be lighted any fire within the limits of any Village park and recreational area, including the North Palm Beach Country Club. This prohibition shall specifically include fires within any type of suitable container, including, but not limited to, barbeque grills and fire pits. The exception to this prohibition is if the Village provides a grill as an amenity in a park. At its October 28, 2021 meeting, the Village Council adopted the Ordinance on first reading without modification. The attached Ordinance has been prepared and reviewed for legal sufficiency by the Village Attorney. Recommendation: Village Staff recommends Council consideration and adoption on second and final reading of the attached Ordinance amending Chapter 20 of Parks, Playgrounds and Recreation to adopt a new Section 20-10 prohibiting fires and grills in Village parks and recreation areas in accordance with Village policies and procedures.

Lukasik, Village Manager FROM: Jeremy Hubsch, AICP, Director of Community Development DATE: November 18, 2021 SUBJECT: RESOLUTION – Approving an increase in the purchase order issued to Hy-Byrd Incorporated for building inspection services by $20,425 (for a total amount of $45,425) The Community Development Department has had vacancies for inspector positions for the past few years. Due to difficulties with finding qualified inspectors, the Village has utilized a variety of firms to provide contract building inspection services. During Fiscal Year 2020, the Village solicited quotes for building inspection services from four firms, and Hy-Byrd Incorporated provided the lowest quote of $65.00 per hour. The Village subsequently issued a purchase order to Hy-Byrd in the amount of $25,000 for Fiscal Year 2020. This amount was carried over into the Fiscal Year 2021 budget and the services provided by Hy-Byrd during Fiscal Year 2021 exceeded the amount of the purchase order by $20,425. Because the total amount paid to this vendor for the prior fiscal year exceeds $25,000, the Village’s purchasing policies and procedures require Village Council approval to pay the vendor for services already performed. The additional cost will be offset by salary and benefit savings from the vacant positions. The attached Resolution has been prepared and/or reviewed for legal sufficiency by the Village Attorney Account Information: Fund Department Account Number Account Description Amount General Fund Building A6019-33190 Professional Services $20,425 Recommendation: Village Staff requests Council consideration and approval of the attached Resolution increasing the amount of the purchase order issued to Hy-Byrd Incorporated for Fiscal Year 2021 by $20,425 (for a total amount of $45,425), with funds expended from Account No. 6019-33190 (Building – Professional Services), in accordance with Village policies and procedures.

WHEREAS, during Fiscal Year 2020, the Village solicited quotes for building inspection services from four firms, and Hy-Byrd Incorporated provided the lowest quote of $65.00 per hour; and WHEREAS, the Village subsequently issued a purchase order to Hy-Byrd in the amount of $25,000 for Fiscal Year 2020, and this amount was carried over into the Fiscal Year 2021 budget; and WHEREAS, the services provided by Hy-Byrd during Fiscal Year 2021 exceeded the amount of the purchase order by $20,425; and WHEREAS, because the total amount paid to this vendor for the prior fiscal year exceeds $25,000, the Village’s purchasing policies and procedures require Village Council approval to pay the vendor for services already performed; and WHEREAS, the Village Council determines that the adoption of this Resolution is in the best interests of the residents and citizens of the Village of North Palm Beach. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE VILLAGE COUNCIL OF THE VILLAGE OF NORTH PALM BEACH, FLORIDA, as follows: Section 1. The foregoing recitals are ratified and incorporated herein. Section 2. The Village Council hereby approves an increase in the amount of the purchase order issued to Hy-Byrd Incorporated for Fiscal Year 2021 by $20,425 (for a total of $45,425), with funds expended from Account No. A6019-33190 (Building – Professional Services).

(Village Seal) MAYOR ATTEST: VILLAGE CLERK VILLAGE OF NORTH PALM BEACH VILLAGE MANAGER’S OFFICE TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the Village Council FROM: Andrew D. Lukasik, Village Manager DATE: November 18, 2021 SUBJECT: RESOLUTION – Amendment to the FY2021-2022 Comprehensive Pay Plan to Include an Additional Part-Time Functional Manager Position Village staff is recommending Village Council’s adoption of a resolution amending the FY2021-2022 Comprehensive Pay Plan by adding a part-time Functional Manager position. The primary purpose of the added position is to assist the Village Manager and Director of Public Works with the evaluation of options related to the Public Works facility. Background: As the Village Council is aware, the existing Public Works facility does not adeq uately serve the needs of the Department. There are several challenges related to the existing site:  The size of the lot does not adequately serve the needs of the Department. The Village has been able to make the site work by leasing spaces for parking for staff at the Unitarian Church for a nominal cost of $5,700/year. However, the site creates some inefficiencies due to the limited size and the amount of equipment that is needed to serve the Village.  Infrastructure on site is beginning to fail. For instance, capital investments on site will be needed for the wash plant and stormwater drainage as flooding and quality of discharged water are issues.  The facility is immediately adjacent to residential uses on its north and west property lines. Because of the size of the lot, the only location to park equipment – namely sanitation vehicles – is along the property lines. Because of these issues, the Village has to explore whether to relocate the facility or to improve the existing site. Having more space for the facility would be optimal, but the market may prove to make relocating difficult from a cost-benefit perspective. The relocation of Public Works, however, would create an opportunity for the Department of Community Development (Building, Code Co mpliance and Planning) to have a permanent location as well. Currently, office space for the Community Development Department is being rented at The Shops at Village Square. Not only does the Village have the ongoing rental expense for this space, it isn’t organized effectively for the Department’s purposes. There are property options available that are all unique in terms of the improvements required. Coordination of these efforts will be time consuming, and existing staffing capacity is unable to adequately address them. Part-Time Position: As staff has begun working on implementation of the Capital Improvement Plan, it is becoming clear that the Village doesn’t have the capacity to coordinate the scope of work necessary to initiate planning for the future Public Works facility, whether it is on the existing site or another site. Staff is proposing to reinstate the Part-Time Functional Manager position to assist with this analysis. The position was housed in the Parks and Recreation Department last fiscal year, but was eliminated as part of the financial plan for FY2022. The overall budget does not need to be increased to accommodate this position due to availability of anticipated salary savings and available contingencies. It is anticipated that the cost of this work will be about $20,000 in dedicated staff time this year. Staff’s intent is to re-employ Russ Ruskay, who recently served as the Village’s Director of Park and Recreation and Functional Manager in Parks and Recreation. Mr. Ruskay has experience with all facets of the analysis that must be completed for the Public Works facility. He was involved in a number of facility needs assessment and construction projects and coordinated environmental analysis and property acquisition activities in his roles as Director of Parks and Recreation and Business Development Director in Jupiter. Although Mr. Ruskay was hired by the Village following a team interview process, it is important to note that the Village Manager and Mr. Ruskay worked together in the Town of Jupiter and continue to maintain a personal friendship. The attached Resolution has been prepared by the Village Attorney. Recommendation: Village Staff requests Council consideration and approval of the attached resolution amending the FY2022 Comprehensive Pay Plan by adding a part-time Functional Manager position. RESOLUTION 2021- A RESOLUTION OF THE VILLAGE COUNCIL OF THE VILLAGE OF NORTH PALM BEACH, FLORIDA AMENDING THE COMPREHENSIVE PAY PLAN ADOPTED AS PART OF THE FISCAL YEAR 2022 BUDGET TO INCLUDE A PART-TIME FUNCTIONAL MANAGER POSITION; PROVIDING FOR CONFLICTS; AND PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE DATE. WHEREAS, through the adoption of Ordinance No. 2021-17 (“Budget Ordinance”) on September 23, 2021, the Village Council adopted the Comprehensive Pay Plan as part of the annual budget for Fiscal Year 2022; and WHEREAS, Section 5 of the Budget Ordinance authorizes the Village Council to revise the Comprehensive Pay Plan by Resolution during the course of the Fiscal Year; and WHEREAS, at the recommendation of Village Staff, the Village Council wishes to amend the Comprehensive Pay Plan to include a part-time Functional Manager position; and WHEREAS, the Village Council determines that the adoption of this Resolution is in the best interests of the Village and its residents. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE VILLAGE COUNCIL OF THE VILLAGE OF NORTH PALM BEACH, FLORIDA as follows: Section 1. The foregoing recitals are ratified as true and incorporated herein. Section 2. The Village Council hereby amends the Comprehensive Pay Plan for Fiscal Year 2022 to include the part-time position of Functional Manager at Pay Grade 115. Section 3. All other provisions of the Comprehensive Pay Plan, to the extent not specifically modified herein, shall remain in full force and effect as originally adopted. Section 4. This Resolution shall take effect immediately upon its adoption. PASSED AND ADOPTED THIS ____ DAY OF ____________, 2021.

APPROVAL OF MINUTES Minutes for the September 28, 2021 meeting were presented. Motion for approval made by Carolyn Kost, seconded by Phyllis Wissner, and passed unanimously. IV. LIBRARIAN’S REPORT Library Manager Julie Morrell reported the following: The Library’s AC Unit broke, but fortunately Public Works had a spare one which they installed within two days. A 2 hour power loss in the Village created a breaker issue at the Library, causing the power outage to last additional time at the building. The outage also potentially caused an issue with the elevator, which ceased working but was repaired within five days. The Obert Room’s doors were regrouted at the base to correct a trip hazard. Two new desks were ordered to replace old ones, but were received with incorrect tops. The vendor was notified and the Library is currently awaiting delivery of the correct tops. Carpet samples and quotes are being received, for replacement during the air handler installation timeframe. Staff member Ylana Luigi has resigned, and a library clerk position remains open. In Children’s Programming, Storytimes, Crazy 8’s Math Club, and Read for the Record of the book Amy Wu and the Patchwork Dragon were mentioned. For Teen Programming, the Haunted House was the main discussion point, with details on the food truck safety restrictions, event activities, current ticket sales and costume contest information. The Board members were treated to a tour of the Haunted House that was under construction. Additionally the School’s Out for Teens SOFT) program was mentioned. For Adult Programming, the following were mentioned: Knit and Crochet group continues to meet on Mondays; Quilters were cancelled due to low attendance but will resume in October The Camera Club’s October meeting had 21 attendees. Yoga in the Park had five attendees. The Book Club had 10 attendees, and future meetings will be conducted in person. The Adult Craft event reached capacity at 22 attendees, and made Halloween hand soap containers. A suggested event is to host a Bingo night, with funds raised through the sale of Bingo cards. It could potentially be a Family Bingo night. The Books & Bites event at the Country Club went well, with 37 attendees. The only issue was parking, which is hoped to be corrected for the next event. The Historical Society of the Palm Beaches has emailed the Library about hosting a “Postcards from Palm Beach” exhibit in the near future. Holiday events are in the planning process, and will include the annual trolley tour and visits with Santa. In Friends of the Library news, last month’s raffle sponsored by Palm Beach Creamed Honey earned $358 for the Library. The current raffle is for a $100 Publix gift card along with a Thanksgiving centerpiece. In the current circulation statistics, total circulation in FY 2021 has increased, with e- circulation showing significant increases over FY2020. V. OLD BUSINESS There was none. VI.

Lukasik, Village Manager FROM: Leonard G. Rubin, Village Attorney DATE: November 18, 2021 SUBJECT: RESOLUTION – Adoption of quasi-judicial procedures Through the adoption of Resolution No. 32-95 on July 27, 1995, the Village Council adopted a procedure for the disclosure of ex-parte communication for quasi-judicial proceedings to remove the presumption of prejudice associated with such communications. However, the Village Council never adopted formal procedures for quasi-judicial proceedings. Quasi-judicial decisions must be based on competent, substantial evidence presented during the course of the public hearing before the decision-making body, and the parties to such a proceeding are entitled to procedural due process. While formal procedures are not legally required, based on the revisions and updates to the Village’s Commercial Zoning Code, Village Staff anticipates an increase in both the total number of quasi-judicial proceedings and the number of proceedings before the Village Council. The attached Resolution provides formal procedures for quasi-judicial proceedings before both the Village Council and the Planning Commission. These procedures may be waived by the Village for applications seeking only appearance review and approval, such as sign face approvals or changes and color approvals or changes, or applications that are essentially ministerial in nature, such as plat approvals. A proceeding is quasi-judicial in nature when it involves the application of a general rule or policy to specific individuals, interests or activities. The quasi-judicial body is required to hold hearings, weigh and consider evidence, and exercise discretion of a judicial nature. Quasi-judicial matters include, but are not necessarily limited to, the following applications:  Site-specific rezoning of real property  Site plan and appearance approval  Special exception uses  Planned Unit Developments  Variances;  Administrative appeals; and  Plats. If the quasi-judicial matter involves more than one reading, such as an Ordinance approving a Planned Unit Development, the first reading shall constitute the quasi-judicial proceeding. On second reading, the Village Council may ratify the its prior decision or re-open the hearing. The proposed procedures also provide a procedure for participation by interested persons. An interested person is defined as a person or corporate entity that owns property or operates a business within 500 feet of the property that is the subject of the application or a person who resides within 500 feet of the property. The 500 feet is consistent with the Village’s noticing requirements for development applications. By law, interested persons are entitled to participate in the hearing and be afforded an opportunity to be heard in the same manner as party to the proceedings. Interested persons may be afforded party status by filing a notice with the Community Development Department no later than the close of business five (5) days before the hearing. Staff will verify that the interested person satisfies the requirements for party status. The procedures for quasi-judicial proceedings before the Village Council and Planning Commission shall be as follows:  Introduction of the matter (and reading of the caption if appropriate)  Swearing in of all persons who wish to speak, including parties, representatives, and members of the public  Presentation of evidence by the Applicant, Staff and any interested person (limited to 20 minutes each)  Rebuttal by the Applicant, Staff and any interested person (limited to 5 minutes each)  Public Comment (limited to 3 minutes each)  Questions by the Village Council or Planning Commission to any party, witness or person providing comment.  Closing argument by any interested person, Staff, and the Applicant. Once the public hearing is closed, the presiding officer shall entertain a motion. The Council or Planning Commission may re-open the public hearing during its deliberations if it so chooses. All relevant evidence shall be admitted. While the formal rules of evidence do not apply, the proceedings shall be governed by fundamental due process (a fair opportunity to be heard). At the conclusion of the hearing, the quasi-judicial body shall issue a written determination (in the form of an Ordinance, Resolution or Order).

(Village Seal) MAYOR ATTEST: VILLAGE CLERK Page 1 of 4 VILLAGE OF NORTH PALM BEACH QUASI-JUDICIAL PROCEDURES Intent These procedures are intended to provide an equitable and efficient method for the Village Council and the Planning Commission to hear matters that are considered quasi-judicial in nature. These procedures shall apply to all quasi-judicial matters, except as otherwise set forth herein. Definitions For the purpose of these procedures, the following definitions shall apply unless the context clearly indicates or requires a different meaning: Interested person means any person, natural or corporate, who owns property, owns a business or resides within five hundred (500) feet of the property that is the subject of the application. Applicant means any person, corporation or other legal entity who files an application with the Community Development Department determined by Village Staff to be quasi-judicial in nature. Party or parties means the Applicant, the Village, and any Interested Person who has complied with the notice provisions set forth below and meets the applicable criteria. Quasi-judicial body means the Village Council or the Planning Commission acting in its quasi- judicial capacity. Quasi-judicial in nature means the application of a general rule or policy to specific individuals, interests, or activities by the quasi-judicial body, as more specifically set forth below. Quasi-judicial matters (a) Matters that are quasi-judicial in nature involve the actions of public officials who are required to investigate facts, or ascertain the existence of facts, hold hearings, weigh evidence and draw conclusions from such facts, as a basis for their official action, and to exercise discretion of a judicial nature and any other decision involving the implementation, rather than formation, of Village policy. Quasi- judicial matters include, but may not necessarily be limited to, the following: (1) Applications for the site-specific rezoning of real property; (2) Applications for site plan and appearance approval; (3) Applications for special exception uses; (4) Applications for Planned Unit Developments; (5) Applications for variances; (6) Administrative appeals; and (7) Applications for plat approval (b) For all quasi-judicial matters which require more than one reading, the first reading shall constitute the quasi-judicial proceeding. Once a decision is rendered to grant or grant with conditions the relief sought by the applicant, then the second reading shall be procedural in nature with the Village Council ratifying and affirming its prior decision. If new evidence is introduced which, if brought to the attention of the Village Council at the first reading, would have had a material impact on its decision, the Village Council may reopen the quasi-judicial hearing. Page 2 of 4 (c) The formal procedures set forth herein may be waived by the Village for applications seeking only appearance review and approval, such as sign face and color changes, or applications that are essentially ministerial nature, such as plat approval. Notice procedures for Interested Persons (a) Interested persons are entitled to a fair and impartial hearing, notice of the hearing, and an opportunity to be heard. (b) Any Interested Person desiring to become a party in a quasi-judicial proceeding shall provide written notice to the Community Development Department which notice shall, at a minimum, set forth the Interested Person's name, address, e-mail address (if applicable) and telephone number, and indicate how the person qualifies as an Interested Person for the proceeding at issue. The filing of notice with the Community Development Department shall serve as notice of the Interested Person's request to appear at the applicable quasi-judicial proceeding to testify, present evidence, bring forth witnesses, and cross- examine witnesses. The required notice must be received by the Community Development Department no later than the close of business (5:00 p.m.) five (5) business days prior to the hearing. The Department shall verify that the person seeking designation as an Interested Person satisfies the requirements for such status and shall provide written confirmation. (c) The written confirmation from the Community Development Department in subsection (b) above shall serve as the notice for the Interested Person to appear at the quasi-judicial proceeding, where he/she will be afforded party status. A copy shall also be provided to the Applicant. Procedures for quasi-judicial proceedings (a) The following is a guideline for conducting quasi-judicial hearings: (1) Introduction.

All persons wishing to speak on a quasi-judicial matter shall take an oath to tell the truth. This includes attorneys representing parties, as well as members of the public providing comment. (3) Presentation of evidence. The presiding officer shall have the option of determining the order to expedite the proceedings. However, all parties shall be provided the opportunity to present their case. The general order of the presentation of evidence shall be as follows: a. Presentations. The Applicant, Village staff, and any Interested Person, in that order, shall each have twenty (20) minutes to make an initial presentation. b. Rebuttal. The Applicant, Village staff, and any Interested Person, in that order, shall each have five (5) minutes for rebuttal. During this time, the parties may present rebuttal testimony, cross-examine opposing witnesses, impeach witnesses, and rebut evidence. c. Public comment. Any person who did not speak during presentations and rebuttals may speak for not more than three (3) minutes. Prior to being heard, each speaker must state his/her name and address for the record. Page 3 of 4 d. Questions. The presiding officer and any member of the Village Council or Planning Commission, as applicable, may ask questions of any party, witness, or person providing public comment. e. Closing argument. Any Interested Person, Village staff, and the Applicant, in that order, shall each have five minutes for closing argument. (5) Action by the quasi-judicial body. a. At the conclusion of the presentation of the evidence and testimony, the quasi- judicial body shall close the public hearing. The presiding officer shall entertain any motions, and the quasi-judicial body shall proceed to deliberate and vote on the motion(s). b. If after notice of hearing, a party does not appear, the hearing may be conducted and an order entered in the absence of the party. c. If during the deliberations a question arises which the quasi-judicial body desires to ask, it shall reopen the public hearing, pose the question and allow each party the opportunity to respond to the question posed prior to closing the public hearing again and resuming deliberations. (b) Representation of parties . (1) Attorney. Any natural person or party may represent himself/herself or may be represented by an attorney. If the party chooses to be represented by an attorney, a notice of representation, signed by the attorney, shall be filed with the Community Development Department prior to the hearing. (2) Non-attorney. In the event any party (other than a corporation or the Village) chooses to be represented by a non-attorney, such party shall file a written, notarized power of attorney with the Community Development Department prior to the hearing stating that the person appearing has the full power and authority to act on behalf of the party in the matter. (3) Business representative. A corporation or limited liability company may appear through a representative who is listed with the Florida Department of State as a current officer or manager of an active corporation or limited liability company entity. The representative must identify himself/herself in that business capacity. (c) Evidence. (1) All relevant evidence shall be admitted. The quasi-judicial body may exclude irrelevant, immaterial, or unduly repetitious evidence. (2) Except as provided herein, neither the Federal Rules of Evidence nor the Florida Evidence Code shall apply, but fundamental due process shall be observed and shall govern said proceedings at all times. Page 4 of 4 (d) Orders. (1) If the quasi-judicial body denies relief to the Applicant, the village shall issue a subsequent written order setting forth the reasons therefor. (2) The quasi-judicial body shall have the authority to issue any and all orders to afford the proper relief, and this authority shall include the authority to grant continuances to a date certain. (e) Hearing record. The Village Clerk shall maintain custody of all recordings of testimony, evidence, and documents submitted into evidence at the hearing. This shall include all back up documentation, as well as any document presented at the hearing or demonstrative exhibit seen by the Village Council or Planning Commission while making its decision. Nothing herein shall be deemed to prohibit any party from providing a court reporter for the proceedings. Any party wishing to appeal the decision of a quasi-judicial body shall have the responsibility to ensure compliance with F.S. §286.0105. (f) Rehearing/Reconsideration and Appeal. While there is no specific rule or statutory authority for the rehearing or reconsideration of a quasi-judicial decision, a local government body or board has the inherent power and authority to rehear and reconsider a previously entered order. Notwithstanding this inherent power and authority, the Village determines that neither the Village Council nor the Planning Commission shall entertain any request for rehearing or reconsideration of a previously entered quasi - judicial order. A final determination of the Village Council or Planning Commission acting in its quasi- judicial capacity is subject to judicial review in a court of competent jurisdiction within thirty (30) days of the Council or Commission’s rendition of its written determination. VILLAGE OF NORTH PALM BEACH VILLAGE ATTORNEY’S OFFICE COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT TO: Honorable Mayor and Council THRU: Andrew D. Lukasik, Village Manager FROM: Leonard G. Rubin, Village Attorney Jeremy Hubsch, Community Development Director DATE: November 18, 2021 SUBJECT: RESOLUTION – Disclaiming Village’s interest in a drainage easement in favor of Palm Beach County located on a vacant parcel of real property on the west side of Prosperity Farms Road and south of Allamanda Drive The Village received a request from Prosperity Village, LLC, the owner of four parcels of property located on the west side of Prosperity Farms Road south of Allamanda Drive, to disclaim the Village’s interest in a Drainage Easement located on one of the vacant parcels. The site is the location of the proposed Prosperity Village PUD. One of the parcels is encumbered by a fifty-foot (50’) wide Drainage Easement running parallel to Prosperity Farms Road (copies of the easement and the survey are included in the back up materials). The easement runs in favor of Palm Beach County, which owns the roadway. It is believed that this easement historically ran along the entire western border of Prosperity Farms Road; however, all other portions of the easement have already been abandoned. The easement is not utilized by the Village or any other utility provider, and the Northern Palm Beach County Improvement District has already indicated that it has no objection to abandonment of the easement. The property owner has filed a formal request with Palm Beach County to abandon the easement. However, Palm Beach County’s abandonment procedures require that if the easement is located within the corporate limits of a municipality, the municipality must first disclaim any interest in the easement by Resolution prior to formal abandonment by the County. The attached Resolution disclaims any interest the Village may have in the Drainage Easement. There is no fiscal impact. Recommendation: Village Staff requests Council consideration and approval of the attached Resolution disclaiming the Village’s interest in a Drainage Easement in favor of Palm Beach County located on a vacant parcel of real property on the west side of Prosperity Farms Road south of Allamanda Drive within the Village’s corporate limits.

WHEREAS, Prosperity Village Development, LLC (“Owner”) has requested that the Village disclaim any interest in a Drainage Easement held in favor of Palm Beach County located on the west side of Prosperity Farms Road south of Allamanda Drive, as depicted on a Survey prepared by Lidberg Land Surveying, Inc. dated April 10, 2021 (“Property”), a copy of which is attached hereto and incorporated herein; and WHEREAS, Parcel 2, as depicted on the Survey, is encumbered by a fifty-foot-wide Drainage Easement in favor of Palm Beach County as recorded in Official Record Book 6136, Page 315 of the Public Records of Palm Beach County, Florida; and WHEREAS, the Owner is seeking abandonment of the Drainage Easement, and Palm Beach County’s easement abandonment procedures require that where the easement is located within the corporate limits of a municipality, the municipality shall first disclaim its interest in the easement by resolution; and WHEREAS, the Village Council wishes to abandon and disclaim the Village’s interest, if any, in the Drainage Easement located on the Property within the Village’s corporate limits. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE VILLAGE COUNCIL OF THE VILLAGE OF NORTH PALM BEACH, FLORIDA as follows: Section 1. The foregoing recitals are ratified as true and incorporated herein. Section 2. The Village Council hereby releases, vacates, abandons, discontinues, renounces and disclaims all rights of the Village in the fifty-foot-wide Drainage Easement encumbering Parcel 2 as depicted on the Survey attached hereto and incorporated herein.
