PUBLIC HEARING Ordinance - Second Reading - Adopting Certain Amendments to the Village of Tequesta Comprehensive Development Plan, Adopted October 12, 1989, As Amended, by Amending the Traffic Circulation Element, the Intergovernmental Coordination Element and the Capital Improvement Element; Providing for Severability; Providing for Repeal of Ordinances in Conflict; Providing for Codification, Providing an Effective Date. (Staff Recommends Approval) 1) Ordinance Read by Title Village Attorney Randolph read the above Ordinance by title only. 2) Overview of Ordinance Consultant Jack Horniman explained that the proposed Comprehensive Plan Amendment had been changed from the original version presented to the Village Council because of objections raised due to misunderstanding of the intent of the Village and concern that the Village might reduce the right of way from 80 feet to 50 feet. The original amendment had assigned a new road classification to Country Club Drive and to Seabrook Road of Limited Neighborhood Access roads which would reduce the number of trips per day. The new amendment kept the current road classification of urban collector roads but still reduced the level of service from "' 15,300 to 10,900 trips per day and maintained the current roadway as a 2-lane road.

Peter L. Cheney, Martin County Administrator, commented that traffic studies had included `~ projects for unbuilt areas so that at build out the traffic counts would still fall within the reduced number of trips per day, and that the changed amendment would relieve Martin County residents' concerns regarding Country Club Drive.

APPOINTMENTS A) Community Appearance Board 1) Consideration of Reappointment of Molly McCormick as an Alternate Member of the Community Appearance Board for a One-Year Term Expiring on April 12, 1996. (Staff Recommends Approval) Councilmember Schauer had requested this item be pulled from the Consent Agenda since at a previous Village Council meeting there had been a question of a problem with Ms. McCormick's attendance at Community Appearance Board meetings. Village Manager Bradford explained that at times in the past when asked to Village Council Meeting Minutes --~ March 9, 1995 Paqe 6 ------------------------------- attend as an alternate, Ms. McCormick had had previous commitments; however during the last few months that had no longer been a problem, and that Mr. Parker attended as an alternate when he was asked. Motion was made by Councilmember Schauer to approve the reappointment of Molly McCormick as an Alternate Member of the Community Appearance Board for a one-year term expiring on April 12, 1996. Motion was seconded by Councilmember Collings. The vote on the motion was: Ron T. Mackail - for Elizabeth A. Schauer - for Earl L. Collings - for Joseph N. Capretta - for The motion was therefore passed and adopted. (Vice Mayor Burckart had stepped out of the room momentarily and was absent during the vote.) IX. DEVELOPMENT MATTERS A) Consideration of Request for Conditional Approval for Temporary On-Site Sales Trailer for Coconut Cove Development, Gordon Ripma, President, Florida Trend Development. (Staff Recommends Approval) Village Manager Bradford reviewed the request in the absence of Mr. Ripma, and commented that after Coconut Cove Development had been approved the Village had received communications from Waterway Village Property Owners Association indicating that they had concerns regarding the adequacy of the landscaping proposed and requesting certain assurances in regard to the landscaping. Subsequently, Mr. Ripma sought Council's approval for a temporary on-site sales trailer which was granted on a temporary basis subject to his meeting with the Waterway Village Property Owners Association. Village Manager Bradford reported that the meeting had been satisfactory as evidenced by a letter to the Village from the Waterway Village Property Owners Assocation, and recommended a 6-month approval for the trailer be granted subject to the landscaping indicated by the Waterway Village Property Owners Association in their letter to the Village of February 22, 1995. Councilmember Collings made a motion to approve Mr. Ripma's Village Council Meeting Minutes March 9, 1995 Page 7 ------------------------------- request with concurrence of the Waterway Village Property Owners Association. Councilmember Capretta seconded the motion. During discussion of the motion, Vice Mayor Burckart recommended a one-month conditional approval to be sure that the landscaping was done as requested, however it was decided that would not be necessary since the Property Owners Association would report if the landscaping was not satisfactory. Village Manager Bradford expressed concern that the landscaping and buffer might not be installed until the end of the project when the trailer would no longer be needed and suggested a condition that the landscaping must be done immediately. Councilmember Collings stated he would change the motion to reflect that the landscaping must be done immediately. Mayor MacRail expressed concern about drainage to which Village Manager Bradford responded that if this area were annexed the Village would correct all drainage problems. Joanne McCabe, sitting in for Building Official Scott D. Ladd, suggested that the approval be conditioned upon issuance of infrastructure permits for the project. Tom Hall commented that landscaping installed before infrastructure was in place would preclude irrigation of anything planted immediately. Councilmember Collings amended the motion to approve Mr. Ripma's request for the temporary trailer consistent with the Waterway Village requirements; permits, however, will not be granted until specifics of irrigation and landscaping are fulfilled. Motion was seconded by Councilmember Schauer. The vote on the motion was: Ron T. Mackail - for William E. Burckart - for Elizabeth A. Schauer - for Earl L. Collings - for Joseph N. Capretta - for The motion was therefore passed and adopted. B) Public Hearing for Special Exception Use, Shopping Center (County Line Plaza Expansion), 500-722 U.S. Highway One North. Interplan Practice Ltd. as Agent for Tamwest Realty, Inc., Owner. and C) Modified Site Plan Review for R-Mart Expansion at County Line Plaza and County Line Plaza Landscaping to Village Council Meeting Minutes March 9, 1995 Page 8 Meet Ordinance No. 377, 500-722 U.S. Highway One North, Tequesta. Anne Marie Eustace, Interplan Practice, Ltd., Agent. Joanne McCabe, sitting in for Building Official Scott D. Ladd, explained that this request was for the expansion of an existing use, and that according to Mr. Ladd's letter of February 23, 1995, all of the criteria for the special exception had been addressed and he recommended approval of the request. Ms. McCabe pointed out that the district was listed incorrectly as M-U in Mr. Ladd's letter, however, was advertised correctly as C-2. Anne Marie Eustace, Interplan Practice, Inc., the architectural consultant for K-Mart, and Lewis Young, Columbia Engineering, stated that they represented County Line Plaza for the special exception as well as the site plan. Ms. Eustace explained that K-Mart was interested in expanding, upgrading, and completing an interior reburbishment which would include expansion to the north and east of the garden center. Ms. Eustace reported that the Community Appearance Board and the Board of Adjustment had reviewed the plans and that their comments had been incorporated into the revised plans in the form of a revised north buffer, removal of parking in the rear, reduced overall parking which had allowed increased landscaping, addition of an enclosed dumpster area, and additional plants which would be placed in the arch areas with irrigation provided in order to screen shopping carts. The exterior facade of the K-Mart building would be redone and would match the existing shopping center with the quoin design on the front and side elevations, however, applicant requested that the design not be added to the rear so that money could be used for more landscaping in front of the building. Vice Mayor Burckart commented that everyone wanted to see K-Mart expand and to be successful, however, the landscape plan did not come close to meeting the landscape ordinance, and the parking was some two hundred spaces short of meeting the Village ordinance, and requested the landscape strip in the rear of K- Mart be removed to accommodate parking, to be placed "~ against the north edge of the property to trade off Village Council Meeting Minutes March 9, 1995 Page 9 ------------------------------- that line of parking for the one that could remain in the rear of the store. Vice Mayor Burckart suggested that the dumpster enclosure be placed behind K-Mart approximately 100 feet north of where it was shown on the plans. Other concerns stated by Vice Mayor Burckart were landscape islands too small to let the trees grow and that a row of parking right in front of the Winn Dixie Store could be deleted so that the 5- foot islands there could become 15-foot islands, and in the main entranceway in front of K-Mart going north after the first driveway leading to the outparcels that some parking spaces could be deleted to increase landscaping since that is a focal point for the parking lot. Vice Mayor Burkart stated 55 parking spaces could be created in the rear areas to replace 55 spaces in front so that the parking area could really be highlighted by landscaping. The driveway along the north side of K-Mart which goes around to the rear could become one way so that it could be reduced to twenty feet and would allow increase of the buffer another seven or eight feet along the north side. He also suggested that the northernmost outparcel be removed. Ms. Eustace responded to Councilmember Collings that the existing sidewalk would remain, and that the rear parking spaces designated for approximately 45 K-Mart employees per shift had been deleted since there was plenty of parking in the front and since the employees did not park in the rear, however, Mr. Miller had stated that he could enforce employee parking in the rear through the lease, if necessary. Mr. Collings admonished the applicant to be certain that rear parking was used for employees so that maximum parking availability could be maintained in front for the increased traffic which would be generated by the K- Mart expansion, and by future leasing of now vacant stores. Ms. Eustace explained traffic flow and explained that the 24-foot drive was necessary for sufficient loading space for delivery trucks and also for emergency vehicles, which would not work with Mr. Burckart's request to reduce the width and to make the drive one way. Mr. Young commented that the truck access for '°" the dumpster site would be difficult if the dumpster Village Council Meeting Minutes March 9, 1995 Page 10 ------------------------------- site were moved, and that some of the parking spaces that were suggested to be removed were critical to the shopping center, such as the spaces near the front of Winn Dixie. Councilmember Schauer supported the enclosed dumpster area, and verified that irrigation would be supplied for buffers. Councilman Capretta commented on the standards for number of parking spaces for the expanded store, and suggested that another hundred parking spaces should be required rather than eliminating two hundred. Councilman Capretta pointed out that if Winn Dixie ever began operating at a level similar to Publix and if housing were developed to provide customers then parking for Winn Dixie would be insufficient. Ms. Eustace explained K-Mart would have no problem putting additional parking spaces back into the plan, and pointed out that the 15~ open space requirement when the center was originally built allowed for much more parking than Ordinance 377 which had come into being since that time, and compromise had been attempted to increase the landscaping to come closer to the new ordinance requirements by eliminating parking spaces. Mayor Mackail questioned the placement of the garden shop in the front and stated it should be on the other side of the building in the back because of traffic and the unsightly mess generated by mulch, debris, etc. Mr. Young responded that the garden shop area had not increased that much and that traffic should not be a problem with the 35-foot wide area proposed. Ms. Eustace commented that Mr. Miller at previous meetings had stated the parking lot was monitored twice a day for trash pickup and that he was working on fixing the irrigation problems; while K-Mart at the same time was replacing damaged irrigation areas. Since neither the K-Mart manager or the County Line Plaza manager were present at the meeting to answer the Council's questions, Councilmember Capretta suggested that an on-site visit be scheduled with both in order for the Council to better visualize the right balance between parking spaces and landscaping. Councilmember Collings suggested that if K-Mart were to purchase the existing retail shops to the south that they would have the sufficient space to relocate ~° the garden center away from the front of the store , to Village Council ,. Meeting Minutes March 9, 1995 Page 11 ------------------------------- which Mr. Young responded that would probably necessitate closing the store while the interior floor plan was flipped. Ms. Eustace and Mr. Young were requested to discuss with their clients an appropriate time for the Village Council to meet with K-Mart's manager, possibly Winn Dixie's manager, and the County Line Plaza manager for an on-site visit to address such critical issues as parking, where loading for the garden shop would be located, and issues brought up by other Councilmembers. Sam McRoberts, 17887 SE Federal Highway, a Tequesta realtor, stated that he represented the north property owners, and questioned why the ordinances were not adhered to since he did not understand what K-Mart's hardship was. Mr. McRoberts explained that a large hotel planned north of K-Mart would not locate there if this plan were approved, because of the smell, etc., from the garden center, and that the plan would damage the viability of future north property. Mr. McRoberts explained that K-Mart could have purchased land for their expansion at market value and questioned the 15,000 square foot size of the expansion, stating that it was truly approximately double that figure. Mr. McRoberts stressed that insufficient parking in this shopping center would only damage the center in the future. Ms. Eustace clarified for the record that she did not mean to mislead the Council by stating the expansion was 15,000 square feet which was the expansion to the north, however the whole expansion was approximately 27,000 square feet. Councilmember Capretta moved to defer the Public Hearing for Special Exception and the Modified Site Plan Review for K- Mart Expansion at County Line Plaza and County Line Plaza Landscaping to Meet Ordinance No. 377 until arrangements could be made for members of the Village Council to meet with the K-Mart Manager and the County Line Plaza Manager on the site to tour the site and review the project in order to visualize whether some of the suggestions made by Vice Mayor Burckart and other councilmembers were feasible and to give the Village Council better insight as to whether they could approve the plan as presented or make changes to it. Motion Village Council Meeting Minutes March 9, 1995 Page 12 was seconded by Councilmember Schauer. The vote on the motion was: Ron T. Mackail - for William E. Burckart - for Elizabeth A. Schauer - for Earl L. Collings - for Joseph N. Capretta - for The motion was therefore passed and adopted. Village Manager Bradford was directed to schedule the on- site meeting. X. NEW BUSINESS A) Ordinance - First Reading - Amending Section 18- 3(a)(3) Pertaining to Meters and Multi-Family Units; Amending Section 18-6 Pertaining to Metering of Multi- unit Buildings, Non-Residential; Amending Section 18- 3(i) Pertaining to Meter Sizing, Relocation of Meters, Fire Hydrants and Other Appurtenances; Providing for Severability; Providing for Repeal of Ordinances in Conflict; Providing for Codification; Providing an Effective Date. (Staff Recommends Approval) Village Attorney Randolph read the above Ordinance by title only on first reading. Tom Hall explained that this modified version of the proposed Ordinance was the result of conversations with Village legal counsel and added needed definitions, policies and procedures which had been implemented, and changes to the base rate for non- residential multi-unit buildings. Mr. Hall explained that the present ordinance required constant policing by the water department for non-residential water users to monitor the number of units the customer had within their building--which would not be necessary if the meter serving the customer were adequately sized. Mr. Hall pointed out that non-residential monthly base rates should be based upon meter size only and a change from billing by number of units to billing by meter size only would make the Village consistent with other water utilities in the area. Village Council Meeting Minutes March 9, 1995 Page 13 ------------------------------- Councilmember Collings made a motion to approve the above Ordinance on first reading. Councilmember Schauer seconded the motion. The vote on the motion was: Ron T. Mackail - for William E. Burckart - for Elizabeth A. Schauer - for Earl L. Collings - for Joseph N. Capretta - for The motion was therefore passed and adopted. B) Consideration of BRITT Request for Additional Contribution. (Staff Recommends Approval) Councilmember Collings withdrew because of conflict of interest. Village Manager Bradford explained that the founding producers of BRITT had agreed to commit $110,000 of matching funds against the next $40,000 in contributions received by BRITT, and recommended the Village contribute $1,000 which would actually amount to $3,500 with the addition of the matching funds, in order to help BRITT overcome their present financial difficulty. Councilmember Schauer expressed concern that an additional contribution to BRITT would cause other cultural organizations to request additional funds also, however, Village Manager Bradford explained that the Village could respond that BRITT was in a difficult situation where special help was called for by everyone interested in its activities. Councilmember Capretta suggested a larger contribution. Councilmember Schauer requested a balance sheet from BRITT to be sure they were managing their funds appropriately, to which Mayor Mackail agreed. Village Manager Bradford stated that assuming BRITT was helped to overcome their present financial difficulties that they would request their usual annual donation from the Village next year and at that time the Village could request assurances regarding how they were managing their finances for the future. Village Council Meeting Minutes March 9, 1995 Page 14 Councilmember Capretta made a motion to approve a $2,500.00 donation to BRITT. Vice Mayor Burckart seconded the motion. The vote on the motion was: Ron T. Mackail - for William E. Burckart - for Elizabeth A. Schauer - for Earl L. Collings - abstain Joseph N. Capretta - for The motion was therefore passed and adopted. XII. ANY OTHER MATTERS Councilmember Schauer made copies of a draft letter available to those interested in writing a letter in support of a bill placed by State Representative Tom Warner proposing smaller school districts throughout the state of Florida. Councilmember Schauer explained that if this bill passed that Representative Warner intended to form a committee to look at the Palm Beach County School Board district to work with citizens in the district on how to divide the present district and meet all of the regulations. Councilmember Collings spoke in support of smaller school districts, and Mayor Mackail requested that the request to send letters on this matter be placed into the Village newsletter. Village Manager Bradford presented two resolutions in draft format for the Village Council's consideration in regard to annexation. The Village Manager stated that even if no areas voted to annex that the exercise had made him aware of the interests of the residents in each area so that the Village would have a better chance for annexation in the future. Two areas, both located in Area A, wanted certain assurances from the Village Council that the Village Manager presented as Resolutions for consideration. Resolution 15-94/95: Village Manager Bradford explained that the Beach Road section of Annex Area A was concerned with future zoning of property from the northern boundary of Jupiter Inlet Colony to the Martin County line, and was afraid that Tequesta's zoning would affect the last remaining vacant parcel by creating double the number of units allowed under Palm Beach Village Council Meeting Minutes March 9, 1995 Page 15 -------------------- County's zoning. After discussion, Vice Mayor Burckart suggested that two different zoning districts be created in this area, one for the properties currently in the Village and one for the unincorporated area proposed for annexation. In order to accomplish this, Village Manager Bradford requested changing the first portion of the first sentence of Item A under Section 3 of the proposed Resolution from "A Zoning District classification for the Beach Road area wherein.." to "A Zoning District classification for the current unincorporated areas of Beach Road area will be considered wherein..", with the rest of the sentence to remain as written. After further discussion, Village Attorney Randolph advised further changes which would delete the last sentence in Section 2, and delete the portion of the sentence in Section 3 which read "no earlier than three (3) years from the effective date of the annexation". The proposed resolution also would create a zoning season from November 1 through April 30 which would be the only time that the Council would consider amendments to the Zoning Ordinance for the Beach Road area. Village Attorney Randolph read Resolution No. 15-94/95 by title only. Vice Mayor Burckart made a motion to approve Resolution No. 15-94/95 with the changes as discussed. Councilmember Schauer seconded the motion. The vote on the motion was: Ron T. Mackail - for William E. Burckart - for Elizabeth A. Schauer - for Earl L. Collings - for Joseph N. Capretta - for The motion was therefore passed and adopted. Resolution 16-94/95: Village Manager Bradford explained that this Resolution pertained to the Jupiter Heights area, which consisted of very small lots in a waterfront community where residents had no other place to park boats, boat trailers, RV units, etc., except in their yards; and would create a special zoning district in order to allow one boat, one trailer designed to carry a boat with or without a boat thereon, and one recreational mobile vehicle but not more than one of Village Council Meeting Minutes March 9, 1995 Page 16 each to be parked on the front yard driveway provided the boat, trailer or vehicle was owned and used by a resident of the premises and could not be used for living, sleeping or housekeeping purposes. Village Manager Bradford pointed out that in Section 4 of the proposed Resolution that the Village would be telling Jupiter Heights that if they voted for annexation, that during the interim period when they would remain under the County zoning before Tequesta brought them in under their Comprehensive Plan that the Village would phase an orderly transition to bring them into compliance with Village codes, and that the Village Council would agree to honor all permits issued by the County pertaining to the docks and if those licenses or permits were overturned that Village Council would work with the residents to facilitate their desires. Village Attorney Randolph read Resolution No. 16-94/95 by title only. Vice Mayor Burckart made a motion to approve Resolution No. 16-94/95. Councilmember Schauer seconded the motion. The vote on the motion was: Ron T. Mackail - for William E. Burckart - for Elizabeth A. Schauer - for Earl L. Collings - for Joseph N. Capretta - for The motion was therefore passed and adopted. Mayor Mackail updated the Village Council on the annexation issue, and commented that it had started on February 6, 1995 and that the Village had been making presentations each night of the week until March 8 which was the final presentation, and stated that he wished to recognize the efforts of the Police Department and particularly Seargent Morrill and Chief Roderick; the Fire Department, particularly Lt. Alex Nathanson and Lt. Bud Burnsen and Chief Weinand; and Village Manager Bradford and Village Clerk Manganiello. The Mayor stated that annexation would benefit both current Village residents and the residents of areas to be annexed. _ Vice Mayor Burckart thanked the Mayor for his efforts regarding annexation.
