There were no communications from citizens.
IV. CONSIDERATION OF CONFIRMATION OF VILLAGE Hl~~NAGER APPOINTMENT
OF STEPHEN J. ALLISON AS CHIEF OF POLICE, PURSUANT TO
SECTION 3.02(7) OF THE VILLAGE CHARTER.
Village Manager Bradford explained that one of his duties
• was to appoint Department Heads, subject to the approval of
the Village Council, based on merit and fitness for duty
alone. The Village Manager explained that current Assistant
Chief of Police Stephen J. Allison had been appointed Acting
Chief of Police upon the retirement of Police Chief Carl
Roderick, and it was Mr. Bradford's desire to appoint Mr.
Allison to the position of Chief of Police. Village Manager
Bradford provided information regarding Assistant Chief of
Police Allison's qualifications, stating that he was the
highest ranking officer of the Department and would be the
logical choice to assume the command of Chief of Police.
The Village Manager commented that Mr. Allison had had a
long and distinguished career with the Tequesta Police
Department and possessed the capability to lead the
Department into the next century. Village Manager Bradford
explained that Mr. Allison was a native of Sanford, Florida,
and had lived in Hobe Sound since 1964, was married and had
two grown children, had obtained a Bachelor of Applied Arts
in Criminal Justice from FAU, had served in the U.S. Army
for three years after which he became a police officer for
the Town of Jupiter Island. On January 1, 1977, Mr. Allison
had joined the Tequesta Police Department, and had been
promoted to Road Patrol Sergeant, then to Lieutenant, and
subsequently to Assistant Chief of Police. Village Manager
• Bradford reported that both he and the Public Safety

Committee had had the idea to begin grooming Mr. Allison for
the position of Chief of Police in recognition of the fact
that they knew Chief Roderick would soon retire. Village
Manager Bradford recommended that the Village Council
confirm the Village Manager's appointment of Stephen Allison
as Chief of Police of the Tequesta Police Department.
Councilmember Capretta, Chair of the Public Safety
Committee, expressed agreement with the Village Manager' s
comments; and explained that the Tequesta Police Department
was unique in that there were more police officers per 1000
people than n most villages of the same size because the
people wanted that safety and security. Councilmember
Capretta explained that the residents also wanted to feel
close to their police and fire fighters, therefore, it was
very important that the officers knew how to conduct
themselves with the people so that they would have a feeling
• of safety. Councilmember Capretta explained that Tequesta's
police officers were trained so that even when arresting
someone they treated them very courteously. Officers were
promoted from within the ranks to keep that concept in
place. Councilmember Meder expressed his delight that Mr.
Allison had been appointed as Chief of Police.
Councilmember Hansen agreed with the previous comments
regarding Mr. Allison and agreed that promoting from within
the ranks was best.
Councilmember Hansen made a motion to approve the Village
Manager's appointment of Stephen J. Allison as Chief of
Police of the Tequesta Police Department. Councilmember
Meder seconded the motion. The vote on the motion was:
Elizabeth A. Schauer - for
Joseph N. Capretta - for

William Shannon, attorney for the applicant and
resident of the Village residing at 46 Chestnut
Trail, explained that a resume of all experts who
would testify had been provided. The experts were
listed as Mr. Hearing, Mr. Scorah, and Miss
Troutman. Mr. Shannon explained that if the
Village Council members wished further information
that they could make inquiries as each expert
approached the podium. Mr. Shannon explained that
the applicant was seeking site plan approval,
special exception approval and approval of some
landscape waivers. The individuals who would be
speaking would use presentation boards as well as
some information screens. Mr. Shannon explained
that these items would be referred to as exhibits,
and provided a listing of the exhibits to the
Village Clerk. Mr. Shannon introduced the first
witness: Donaldson A. Hearing, Landscape Architect
and Site Planner.

Oaks, a Mixed-Use Development proposed to be
located on 13.6 acres in downtown Tequesta,
formerly the site of Lighthouse Plaza. Mr. Hearing
explained that many of the larger establishments
formerly in the Plaza had relocated to U.S. Highway
One and the only one remaining notable commercial
enterprise at the Plaza was McCarthy's Restaurant.
Mr. Hearing stated that the applicant, D.C. Land
Company, Ltd., proposed to redevelop the site and
to construct 160 unit townhomes and a new single-
story free-standing building to accommodate
McCarthy's restaurant just to the west of Fidelity
Federal Savings and Loan building fronting on
Tequesta Drive. The project would be built out at
a density of 11.76 dwelling units per acre, well
below the allowable maximum of 18 units per acre
provided for within the Mixed-Use Zoning District.
• The underlying land use of the property was
commercial and the zoning designation was mixed
use. The layout of the townhomes was done in a
traditional style in keeping with the mixed-use
district. The streets were organized into a series
of blocks which were bisected by a main street with
access from Tequesta Drive. The streets were
narrow to reinforce the traditional style, to be
more consistent with urban development patterns, to
provide traffic calming, and to pay less attention
to the automobile and more attention to
pedestrians. The streets were more narrow than the
50-foot right of way required, however, waivers
were allowed. To further reinforce the Village
character, the streets would be lined with large
Live Oaks planted at 14' to 16' which would provide
a canopy across the narrow streets. Access would
be from Tequesta Drive, and the current access from
U.S. One would be eliminated. The main street,
known as Tequesta Oaks Drive, would extend from
Tequesta Drive north to a terminal vista of an
architectural feature providing a terminal view and
doubling as the pool and recreational facility. No
homes would front onto the main street. Access to
• the individual townhomes would be 'off of the main
street onto localized blocks with streets not

designed to provide circulation throughout the
community. All streets within the community would
be public, drainage would be maintained by the
Homeowners Association, and no gates or guardhouses
would be installed. Mr. Donaldson explained that
the townhomes had been designed to provide many of
the comforts of single family homes with the
benefits of multi-family housing. Each townhome
would have a 26' x 86' platted lat, a rear yard, a
side yard, with access to the rear yard from the
side. The rear yard had been designed to
accommodate a small pool. In the rear of the back-
to-back townhomes, a 5 to 6-foot high masonry wall
would be provided for additional privacy. The
community would be pedestrian oriented. Over-sized
6-foot sidewalks would be provided on both sides of
the main road extending from Tequesta Drive to the
• recreation facility. Pedestrian access would be
provided to St. Jude's Catholic Church and to the
commercial shopping area to the east. A future
pedestrian access point would be provided to the
west. Mr. Donaldson explained that each townhome
would contain 3 bedrooms and 2-1/2 baths in a total
of 1,360 square feet of air conditioned space, plus
a 427 square foot 2-car garage. The architectural
style would be classic Mizner style with details
taken from Palm Beach Mizner architecture. The
roof would be modified Spanish S-tiles made of clay
in a 3-color blend representative of the soft
earth-tone color samples provided. Shutters of
varying colors and designs would provide
architectural variety. Each townhome would have an
arched portico entranceway. The exterior material
would be an elastomeric with integral color which
would require little maintenance with true colors
maintained for quite some time. Mr. Donaldson
pointed out that a variety of palms would be
provided, however, emphasis would be on the large
canopy trees. The commercial component of the site
plan was McCarthy's Restaurant, which would be
housed in a new free-standing 200-seat 5900 S.F.
• building with 68 parking spaces. The restaurant
building's architectural style would blend in with

of the Tequesta Oaks community by

Mr. Donaldson explained that two landscape waivers
would be required in the commercial area. The
close proximity of adjacent commercial buildings
did not allow room for the 5-foot landscape buffer
required between commercial uses, however, the
applicant was providing all of the landscaping
required under Ordinance 377. The second waiver
request was to allow deletion of the 5-foot divider
median between abutting rows of parking spaces to
allow stronger traffic circulation, and to put that
landscaping against the pedestrian walkway located
along the main street.
•
•
Mr. Donaldson explained that the main project
signage for the residential component would utilize
a classical architectural style using the classic
Mizner cobalt blue the with simple lettering for
Tequesta Oaks. McCarthy's Restaurant signage
would reflect the historical character of the
community. Mr. Donaldson concluded that it was
believed this project was consistent with the mixed
use zoning standards of the Village, the
Comprehensive Plan, and the spirit, intent, goals
and objectives of the Village.
Michael B. Scorch, Civil Engineer, discussed
drainage, water and sewer, and explained that the
existing drainage would be removed in its entirety.
The new drainage system would be installed in the
street system utilizing exfiltration piping
conveyed by a series of culverts down to a series
of small dry retention areas along the west
property line. Mr. Scorch explained that the
existing dome which allowed water to flow down onto
Tequesta Drive would be removed, which would allow
95o runoff to be contained on the site prior to
discharge through a controlled discharge which
would travel through the dry retention system and

then out into an existing system in Tequesta Drive.
This would greatly reduce the existing impact on
the Village drainage system. A small amount, less
than 3,000 square feet, at the entrance road would
be discharged directly but would have no major
impact. Potable water would come from a looped
system created by connections into the water line
in front of Fidelity Federal and also into the line
in front of the church. The fire flow requirements
would be met. Sanitary sewer would not require a
pumping station. Electrical, phone, and cable
television would be installed by the respective
utilities.
Mr. Scorah explained the traffic circulation
pattern. A shunt turn-around had been provided
where needed.
• Andrea Troutman, Registered Professional Engineer
with David Plummer and Associates, explained that
their firm had completed the Traffic Impact
Analysis for the project and that it met Palm Beach
County Traffic Performance Standards for roadway
links and for the computer model Test 2.
Mr. Shannon concluded by commenting that this plan
met all requirements of the Mixed-Use Ordinance,
that waivers were presented for consideration, and
that he was pleased to bring this project to the
Village Council.
3) Disclosure of Ex-Parte Communications
A poll of the Village Councilmembers revealed there
had been no ex-parte communications except that
Councilmember Meder reported he had made a trip to
the site to look it over.

John Giba, 78 Fairview East, commented that he was
happy that this was a residential development which
would provide more people with more spendable
dollars; and was also happy that the architecture
had been softened so that it did not look like a
barracks. Mr. Giba expressed concern that there
was only one entrance for ingress and egress, which
was dangerous. Mr. Giba commented that he presumed
that the condominium association would be
responsible for maintenance of roads and drainage.
Mr. Giba commented this was the first step in
alleviating the blight in the downtown area.
Ed Nelson, 370 Riverside Drive, commented that he
had received legal notification, being a property
owner within 300 feet, and that his property was
contiguous. Mr. Nelson expressed his opinion that
• if the project was carried out as presented to the
Village that it would be an asset to the town and a
wonderful neighbor.
Mr. Hearing responded to Mr. Giba's concerns
regarding alternative ingress and egress by
explaining that entrance was available through the
Fidelity Federal location, but there was no access
point to the north.
Councilmember Meder questioned future plans for
Parcel 2, to which Mr. Hearing responded that
Parcel 2 now provided access over to U.S. One;
however this project had been oriented toward the
Village. The parcel was anticipated to be
available for future commercial use oriented toward
U.S. One, but with pedestrian access from Tequesta
Oaks. Councilmember Meder inquired whether lights
on the backs of Mr. Nelson's buildings would create
problems for residents in Tequesta Oaks. Mr.
Hearing responded that if a problem existed that
there were ways that lights could be shielded, and
that the landscaping, wall, and setbacks would also
lessen the possibility of problems from those
• lights. Mr. Hearing explained that trees would be
placed in tree grates in the parking lot to create

the feel of a plaza. In response to Mr. Meder's
concern that cars would be parked in driveways
across sidewalks, Mr. Hearing responded that was
correct, and that pedestrians walking on sidewalks
on the secondary streets would have to walk around
cars. Mr. Hearing commented that a pattern to
bring cars and people together was being encouraged
in urban planning, and that in this project the
narrow streets and canopy trees would slow traffic
to allow that concept. Mr. Meder expressed
concern for safety where no sidewalk existed at the
end of the u-shaped street and people would have to
walk in the street. Mr. Meder referred to Exhibit
"C" which showed on-street parking, and was pleased
with Mr. Hearing's comment that the on-street
parking had been removed. Village Manager Bradford
commented there was confusion regarding the
• sidewalks in front of the townhomes in that the
site plan indicated a sidewalk on the plan,
however, Exhibit "B" stated sidewalks were not
provided on residential streets. Mr. Hearing
explained that the Village had been provided with
exhibits as the plans progressed and that changes
were reflected on the final site plan. Mr. Hearing
verified that on-street parking on the main street
had been eliminated to a point but was still
proposed in one area; however, responded to the
Village Manager that future parking problems were
not anticipated since residents would be encouraged
to park in their garages, and also explained that
this project was surrounded by available parking in
the adjacent shopping center and church lots if
needed in case of a party in the development. Vice
Mayor Schauer advised that she worked at St. Jude
and the parking lot was not lit except when used by
the church. Councilmember Meder commented that
cars were towed when parked along roads, to which
Mr. Hearing responded that had been made clear by
the Police Chief, and it would be a requirement of
the homeowners association that parking along the
streets would not be allowed. Village Manager
• Bradford inquired whether the deletion of on-street
• Special Village Council
Meeting Minutes

Page 11
-----------------------
parking on the main street was a physical
constraint.. Mr. Hearing responded that it was a
physical constraint and was physically impossible
to provide. Village Manager Bradford inquired
whether the sidewalk in front of the townhomes was
a physical or financial constraint, to which Mr.
Hearing responded it was a physical space
constraint and a conscious decision had been made
to draw people to the streets. Village Manager
Bradford inquired whether it would be safe to say
that if this neighborhood were not self-contained
with no physical constraints that this plan would
probably have been presented with on-street
parking. Mr. Hearing responded that he could not
answer. Village Manager Bradford questioned
whether Mr. Hearing had testified as to the
benefits of on-street parking. Mr. Hearing stated
• he did not specifically testify to the benefits of
on-street parking but had talked about the
streetscape; however, the Village Manager was
correct that on-street parking provided an
additional calming effect, but their site plan had
been redesigned to achieve that through the
streetscape design and the type of curving
utilized. Mr. Hearing commented that if these were
all through streets out to U.S. One that a totally
different approach would probably have been taken.
Councilmember Hansen commented that he was quite
impressed and felt staff questions had been
resolved. Councilmember Hansen questioned how the
units would be marketed. Charles Hathaway,
Corporate Representative, Vice President of Austin
Company and President of Sunco Building
Corporation, the builder of the project, explained
that the intent was to market these units to
everyone so that it would be a mixed community.
The units would accommodate a family with children.
During discussion of school busses, it was pointed
out that the School Board usually did not allow the
• school busses to enter developments so they would
probably stop outside the development. Mr.
• Special Village Council
Meeting Minutes

-----------------------
Hathaway listed some of the options available as
interior wall units, storage units in garages, and
a small pool designed for the back yard. Mr.
Hathaway explained that the exterior color would be
designated for each building, and residents could
choose the building with the color they desired if
it were available. Councilmember Hansen questioned
whether Village minimum property standards would be
incorporated into homeowner association documents.
Mr. Hathaway responded that he was not familiar
with the minimum property standards, however, a
homeowner's association would be responsible for
drainage and for roads. Mr. Hathaway explained
that mail would be delivered to the recreation
facility and residents would go there to pick up
their mail.
• Councilmember Capretta discussed the timing of
demolition of the old buildings and building the
new project. Mr. Hathaway explained that the
scheduling plan included starting the new building
for McCarthy's Restaurant approximately August 1 so
that they should be able to start moving in around
the first part of November and could be in and open
for Christmas. Bids were currently being obtained
for demolition, which would begin with the old K-
Mart building and the west side of the shopping
center. After McCarthy's building was completed
and they had moved in, a sewer line could be
installed and then the rest of the buildings could
be torn down. Mr. Hathaway explained that it was
expected that all underground improvements,
demolition, and McCarthy's move would all be
accomplished before the end of the second quarter
of next year. Mr. Hathaway commented that unit
sales would begin right away and by the end of the
second quarter next year buildings should be in the
process of construction. Mr. Hathaway explained
that it would take 45 days to build a unit and if
they were built at the rate of two per day the
whole project could be completed in 125 days. If
• all sales were completed up front, the project
would be done in a year. Price would be in the low

-----------------------
$100,000's and no units would be rented by the
applicant, however, there was no control over
whether a purchaser rented a unit. Councilmember
Capretta expressed concern for potential traffic
problems during morning and evening workdays as
people were leaving and returning from work due to
only one entrance to the project. Councilmember
Capretta suggested that a provision be made for
ingress and egress to the Fashion Mall only in the
event of a catastrophe. Drainage concerns were
addressed by Mr. Scorah, who explained that by
removing the dome that the whole site would be at
an elevation of 22 feet, the finish floor level of
the bank was currently 23 feet, the finish floor
level of McCarthy's new building would be 22 feet,
and that the elevation of Tequesta Drive was 18.25
feet at the threshold, so that there would be a
• difference of 3 feet 9 inches. Grading would be
done so that drainage would flow internally.
Councilmember Meder requested clarification as to
the location of The Flame building on one of the
maps, which Mr. Scorah pointed out. Vice Mayor
Schauer commended the applicant for answering every
question posed by every Department Head. The Vice
Mayor commented that she was happy with the
language allowing only specific pets, prohibiting
overnight parking on roads and in swales, and
stated that she believed that this was a good
project. Her only concern was with on-street
parking.
Village Manager Bradford clarified for the record
that the infrastructure had been discussed with
Building Official Scott D. Ladd and it was his
understanding that the streets would be public,
therefore the drainage system would be public,
however had been told by Mr. Ladd that the dry
retention areas would be maintained by the
homeowners association and not the drainage
infrastructure itself. The Village Manager asked
• Mr. Ladd to explain the situation regarding
ownership and maintenance of the drainage
. Special Village Council
Meeting Minutes

-----------------------
infrastructure. Mr. Ladd explained that it was
staff's recommendation that the Village not become
involved in the three retention ponds, their weirs,
and their infrastructure .and that the Village not
take over the maintenance of the exfiltration
trench systems. Mr. Ladd clarified that the
drainage pipes would be the responsibility of the
Village except where there was an exfiltration
trench within the pipe. Discussion ensued, in
which it was clarified that exfiltration trenches
on Tequesta Drive were maintained by the Village.
Village Manager Bradford requested clarification
regarding parking on the streets and pointed out
that in the homeowner association documents that
the association had the power to authorize parking
of vehicles with their approval, and it was implied
that they could also authorize daytime parking on
• the streets, while the Village intended to enforce
no parking on the streets. Mr. Shannon stated that
he would revise the documents to prohibit vehicles
parking on the streets. Further discussion ensued
regarding the drainage. It was the consensus of
the Village Council that the Homeowner's
Association would maintain the dry retention areas
only and the remainder of the drainage system would
be maintained and operated by the Village through
its stormwater utility. Mr. Ladd commented that
the Village would need to also monitor the
retention ponds to be sure they were maintained.
Jim Humpage and Al DeMott were sworn in by Village
Clerk Manganiello.
Jim Humpage, 360 Fiesta, commented that this was a
nice meeting since everyone was happy. Mr. Humpage
questioned what would happen to all the debris
which would result from demolishing the buildings
and was told it would be hauled out. Mr. Humpage
commented that with the new Special Master and Task
Force that he anticipated no enforcement problems.
Mr. Humpage encouraged the Village Council to
• approve this project.

Al DeMott, Golfview Drive, expressed his delight
that sewers were already in place and this project
would only have to connect. Mr. DeMott questioned
what would happen to the current ingress and egress
to Fidelity Federal, and was advised there would be
no change. Mr. DeMott expressed concern regarding
the school bus issue because of the traffic during
the season and the railroad track across Tequesta
Drive. After discussion, Vice Mayor Schauer
commented that was also a concern of hers and that
possibly something could be worked out with the
School Board.
Ed Nelson commented that the Village had been done
a disservice by DOT in cutting off crossovers on
U.S. One. Mr. Nelson requested that construction
trucks go through the Tequesta Drive entrance and
not access the construction site via the Tequesta
Mall. Mr. Hathaway assured the Village Council
that the applicant would be happy to accommodate
Mr. Nelson's concern.
Village Manager Bradford questioned whether Parcel
2 was actually buildable, to which Mr. Ladd
responded he had not had a chance to determine
that. Mr. Shannon verified that the applicant
believed Parcel 2 was buildable since it was within
the Mixed Use District.
John Giba expressed safety concerns with the
internal traffic circulation and anticipated
congestion.
There were no other comments from the public.
