Amendment OS-l is presented in the APPENDIX to this document. 3.1 VILLAGE CHARACTER Proposed NPBCP Amendment OS-1 is classified as a "lazge-scale" future land use map amendment due to the fact that the maximum potential density exceeds 1 Q units per acre. A summary of the key impacts of the proposed amendment is as follows: 1. Commercial land is decreased by 1..93 acres, and Medium. Density Residential is increased by 1.93 acres. Residential uses may be developed on the "Mariner Court" (NPBCP Amendment OS-1), provided. that rezoning and site plan approvals are procured. 2. No additional Village land use categories are affected. by the proposed NPBCP Amendment OS-l. Due to the limited amount of land (i.e. 1.93 acres) involved in NPBCP Amendment OS-1, .C __i_._J ~.. .L _ __t__a___a..___ _ .•tY 1. _ _f iuipscts ui rcia~cu grovvui upon irsu-a5uuc~urr ~crvices wtu oe rninimai. It is concluded that the proposed NPBCP Amendment OS-1 is consistent with the residential character of the Village, as described in Chapter Z of the 1999 Village of North Palm Beach Comprehensive Plan. Properties included within NPBCP Amendment 05-1 are included within Village Planning Area 3B, as illustrated on FIGURE 3-5 of the Future Land Use Element. Planning Area maps will be revised as part of the next round of Evaluation And Appraisal Report based comprehensive plan amendments. 3.2 FUTURE. LAND USE A. Data Summary An analysis of topography, soils and minerats, flooding, and native vegetation in the Village is presented in the 1999 Village of North Palm Beach. Support Documentation (Future Land Use Element). This document and supplementary data are used in the following analysis. l . Topography: The elevation of pazcels included within NPBCP Amendment OS-1 is approximately 12 feetN.G.V.D. 3-2 Z. Soils and Minerals: The general soil type of properties included within NPBCP Amendment OS-1 is Arents-Urban land complex {AU), iri part, and Urban land (Ur) According to the Soil Survey of Palm Beach County (tJ.S. Department of Agriculture, Soil Conservation Service, 1978), urban land "... consists of areas that are 50% to 75% covered with streets, buildings, large parking lots, shopping centers, industrial parks, airports, and related facilities. Other areas, mostly lawns, parks, vacant lots, and playgrounds aze generally altered to such an extent that the former soils cannot be easily recognized and are in tracts too small to be mapped separately". Due to these characteristics, this soil type cannot be placed within capability units to determine their suitability for development. However, since NPBCP Amendment OS-1 is located within an area that is predominantly developed for urban purposes, it is concluded that general soil types do not present any limitations for development. 3. Flooding Potential: The designation of properties within NPBCP Amendment OS-1 is Flaod Zone B/C. Areas within the "B" zone are generally between the limits of the 100-yeaz and the 500-yeaz flood. 5 Flooding. potential does not indicate the presence of any development limitations for properties located within NPBCP Amendment OS-1. 4. Native Vegetation and Wildlife: The cleared status, parcel size (i.e. 1.93 acres, respectively), as well as soil types previously discussed, indicate that there are no significant native vegetationand/or wildlife issues to be addressed. Existing Land Use Inventory: NPBCP Amendment OS-1 includes 1.93 acres included in the Village's vacant land inventory. Until developed, NPBCP Amendment OS-1 will have no effect upon the existing land use inventory. The property included withinNPBCP Amendment OS-1 is not listed on the Florida Master Site File, or the National Register of Historic Places. The net effect of NPBCP Amendment OS-1 upon existing land uses in the Village is shown in Table 3. 3-3 TABLE 3 Impact 4f NPBCP Amendment 05-1 Upon Existing Land Use North Palm Beach (acres) Land Use Category Prior To Amendment OS-1 * including Amendment d5-1 Residential Low Density 713.61 713.61 Residential Medium Density ?8.59 78.59 Residential High Density 189.84 189.84 Commercial 174.68 174.68 Recreation/Open Space 196.98 196.98 Conservation/Open Space 384.70 384.70 Public Buildings & Grounds 16.19 16.19 Education 22.40 22.40 Transportation (R.O.W.) 285.75 285.75 Water 1,225.10 1,225.10 Vacant 25.64 25.64 Total 3,313.48 3,313.48 * - 1999 Village of North Palm Beach Support Documentation; Future Land Use Element. 6. Current Population Estimates: By approving NPBCP Amendment OS-1, the current population estimate of the Village is not increased. However, buildout population potential under the proposed Medium Density Residential Iand use designation is increased by 42 residents. B. Analysis Delineation of Village Planning Areas: NPBCP Amendment OS-1 will not affect the corporate trouts and the boundary of Planning Area 3B. However, the future land use designation of the subject site will be changed from Commercial to Medium Density Residential, 3-4 2. Existing Land Use Map Series: NPBCP Amendment OS-1 will not effect the Existing Land Use Map Series of Plaruzing Area 3.B until. it is developed. Seasonal And Resident Population. Projections: Resident populations were recently updated as part of the NPBCP Amendment 02-2, as follows: 2000 - 12,837; and 2005 - 13,049. Projections assumed buildout of vacant residential lands by the year 2005. Approval of NPBCP Amendment OS-1 will increase the buildout population to 13,091 residents, as well as extending the buildout date to 2007. Potential population related to NPBCP Amendment OS-1 is presented in Table 2. It is assumed that the property will be assigned the proposed Medium Density Residential land use designation. Therefore, the net Iong-term effects of the proposed NPBCP Amendment OS-1 is an increase in population of 42 residents. 4. Vacant Land Analysis: NPBCP Amendment OS-I is currently undeveloped. Based upon the analysis performed in Section 3.2.A., no limitations to the development of the property are def ned. 5. Land Use Projections: It is projected that vacant land in NPBCP Amendment OS-l .will be developed for residential purposes by the year 2007. C. Goal, Objectives And Policies NPBCP Amendment OS-1 is consistent with the Future Land Use Element of the Comprehensive Plan, as amended and no text amendments are required. Most. specifically, the property included within NPBCP Amendment OS-1 is located within Village Planning Area 3B, per Figure 3-5 of the Comprehensive Plan. Specifically, NPBCP Amendment OS-1 is not contrary, nor does ii contradict any Objective or Policy of the Future Land Use Element. 3.3 TRANSPORTATION A. Data Summary NPBCP Amendment OS-1 will not have any significant impact upon the Village roadway system. According to the Evaluation and Appraisal Report, all roadways within the Village are currently operating at level-of-service "C", or better. Further, the property is currently assigned a Commercial future land use designation.. The assignment of an RM-Medium Density Residential future land use designation will result in a reduction of potential trips generated by uses on the property, 3-S B. Analysis NPBCP Amendment OS-1 consists of one lot (i.e. a total of 1.93 acres). The lot is currently undeveloped. The proposed future land use designarion is RM -Medium Density Residential, with an R-2 Multiple-family Dwelling District. A traffic analysis was prepared by Kimley-Horn Associates, Inc., comparing the traffic potentially generated by a project under the existing Commercial future land use designation with the proposed RM-Medium Density residential development. The results of the analysis indicates that the prvpased residential development will generate 1,971. fewer daily trips, 38 fewer AM peak hour trips, and I80 fewer PM peak hour trips than the current Commercial future land use designation. Based upon the analysis, the proposed development is Less of an impact during the peak hour than. the site's current potential. The proposed RM-Medium Density land use designation meets the requirements of the County's Traffic Performance Standards, in that no significant impact is determined. C. Goal, Objectives And Policies - NPBCP Amendment OS- I is consistent with the Transportation Element of the Comprehensive Plan, and no text amendments are necessary. 3.4 HOUSING A. Data Summary NPBCP Amendment OS-1 will effect the Village's long-term inventory of housing by adding a potential of 2I units to the planned supply. The associated proposed site plan will further limit the development potential to 16 dwelling units.. NPBCP Amendment OS-1 is currently vacant, II. Analysis The proposed future land use designation is RM-Medium Density Residential. For planning purposes, ii is therefore assumed that the site will be developed for residential purposes, with a development potential of 2I residential units. C. Goal, Objectives And Policies r NPBCP Amendment 05-1 has no effect upon the Housing Element, and no text amendments are required. 3-5 Rev.: 5/9/OS 3.5 SANITARY SEWER, SOLID WASTE, DRAINAGE, POTABLE WATER AND NATURAL GROUNDWATER AQUIFER RECHARGE a. Data Summary Due to the small site of the properties included in NPBCP Amendment 0~-1, there will be no significant impacts upon infrastructure services. The property is within the service area of Seacoast Utilities Authority. Potable water and sewer service is currently available. Drainage facilities aze currently in place along U.S. Highway No. 1 to provide service to the NPBCP Amendment OS-1 property. Solid waste collection will be assumed by the Village of North Palm Beach for the area constituting NPBCP Amendment OS-l. Disposal services will be provided by the Palm Beach County Solid Waste Authority, which has adequate capacity to serve the Village through buildout, b. Anatysis Central potable water and sanitary sewer service is available to serve the site. An estimate of maximum day potable water demand to service NPBCP Amendment OS-1 is as follows: (42 persons) x (147 gallonslcapita/day) = 6,174 gallons per day. Seacoast Utilities Authority has the excess capacity to provide service. An estimate of maximum day wastewater demand to service NPBCP Amendment 05-1 is as follows: (42 persons) x (144 gallons/capita/day) = 4,368 gallons per day, Seacoast Utilities Authority has the excess capacity to provide service. Properties within NPBCP Amendment OS-1 are not located within a designated Protection Zone of a water treatment facility. G Goals, Objectives and Policies Proposed NPBCP Amendment OS-1 is consistent with the Sanitary Sewer, Solid Waste,. Drainage, Potable Water And Natural Groundwater Aquifer Recharge element of the Comprehensive Plan, and no text amendments are required. 3-7 3>6 COASTAL MANAGEMENT a.

Data Summary The result of development activity on properties associated with NPBCP Amendment OS-1 can potentially increase the population of the Village by a maximum of 42 residents. b. Analysis Implementation of a residential development concept on property associated with NPBCP Amendment OS-1 will not create any additional need to develop recreation facilities. Applying the Village's LOS standard (2 acres of neighborhood parks/1,000 residents), the proposed amendment will generate the need for 0.082 acres of neighborhood parks. Section 36-23 of the Village Code requires the dedication of 5% of the land area of a subdivision for public use or, at the discretion of the Village Council, a cash contribution in lieu thereof. Funds generated from a cash contribution are to be earmarked for parks and recreation purposes. c.

Analysis NPBCP Amendment OS-1 has no effect upon programmed capital improvements in terms of adding additional capacity to currently planned improvements. c. Goal, Objectives and Policies NPBCP Amendment QS-1 is consistent with the Capital improvements Etement of the Comprehensive Plan, and no additional text amendments are required. 3-10 4.0 CONSISTENCY WITH REGIONAL AN- STATE PLANS According to Chapter 4J-SA21, Florida Administrative Code (FAC), the comprehensive plan must be consistent with the State Comprehensive Plan and Treasure Coast Regional Planning Council Policy Plan. Chapter 9J-5.021(2), FAC states ".... ,for the purposes of determining consistency of the local plan with the State Comprehensive Plan or appzopriate regional. policy plan the state or regional. plan shall be construed as a whole and no specific goal and policy shall be construed or applied in isolation from the other goals and policies." 4.1 REGIONAL POLICY PLAN ~ " NPBCP Amendmerit.45-1 was reviewed in terms of the Treasure Coast Regional Planning Council Regional Policy Plan in order to determine consistency. Based on this review, it is determined that no significant regional issues are related to, or impacted by ~~PBCP Amendment 05-1, and it is found consistent with egional goals and policies. 4.2 STATE COIVIPREHEI~ISIVE I'.LAN" NPBCP Amendment OS-I.was reviewed in terms of the goals, objectives and policies of the State Comprehensive Plan, as presented in Chapter 187, Florida Statutes. Based upon this review; it is concluded that NPBCP Amendment OS-.1 is consistent with state goals; objectives and policies.. " 4-1 5.0 CONCLUSION The following finding and recommendation are presented: 5.1 FINDING 1. Comprehensive Plan Consistency. NPBCP Amendment OS-1 is consistent with the goals, objectives and policies of the Village of North Palm Beach Comprehensive Plan. More specifically: (l} NPBCP Amendment OS-1 is w7thin the Urban Service Area, and does not contribute to a condition of urban sprawl, as defined by Chapter 9J-5.006(5), Florida Administrative Code; (2) NPBCP Amendment OS-i is consistent with policy of the Capital Improvements Element in that it does not contribute to a condition of public hazard, as defined therein, does not exacerbate any existing condition of public facility capacity deficits, as described therein, and is compatible with land uses, as shown on the Future Land Use Map Series, as discussed .in section 3, below; and (3)1\'PBCP Amendment OS-1 is compatible with, and can be serviced by existing infrastructure systems. 2. Scale of Developmer.±. The development potential ofNPBCP Amendment OS-1 consists of a maximum of 22 residential units. However, concurrent zoning and Mariner Court site plan approvals propose to limit development to a maximum of 16 two-story residential townhouses. The Comprehensive Plan cunenily permits a Floox-Area-Ratio {FAR) of 1.1 along U.S. Highway No. 1 in the vicinity of the subject site, although height limitations in the CB zoning district {2 stories) may not allow this to occur. The proposed two-story Mariner Court community, with sixteen 2,949 sq. ft. {including atwo-car garage} townhouses will result in a FAR of 0.56 and meet existing zoning district height limitations. As a result, the scale of development {i.e. height and bulk) is consistent with development potential undez the current future land use and zoning designations. The Village is nearly built-out, and there are no similar sites available for infill residential development where such development is currently permitted. 3. Consistency and Compatibility with Established Land Use Patterns. The proposed residential future land use designation of the property included within NPBCP Amendment OS-1 is found compatible with the Iand uses located along the U.S. Highway No. 1 corridor. Compatible land uses are defined. as those which are consistent with each other in that they do not create or foster undesirable health, safety or aesthetic effects arising from the direct association of dissimilar activities, including the impacts of intensity of use, traffic, hours of operation, aesthetics, noise, vibration, smoke, hazardous odors, radiation, and other land use conditions. 5-1 To be compatible, it is not. necessary that two uses have the same exact function (e.g. residential, commercial, institutional, etc). Rather, compatibility is attained when the uses do not adversely effect each other. Further, two uses whose functions are different can compliment and support each. other. For example, a residential use can help support a commercial use, and the commercial use can provide essential goods and services to residents of the residential use.. In addition, buffering, screening, setback, height, and landscaping requirements can further enhance compatibility, and reduce the potential negative effects of functionally different land uses, Land uses surrounding NPBCP Amendment OS-1 are graphically depicted on Exhibit 3. Abutting uses include: North -Public buildings and grounds (North Palm Beach Public Safety Department); South -Commercial (Wachovia Bank); Fast -Corsair Drive, followed by Low Density Residential {Palm Beach bake Worth Estates Plat 2); and West - U.S. Highway No. 1 followed by Commercial, in part (professional offices), and Public buildings and grounds (North Palm Beach Village HalI). As a result of the residential subdivisions to its east, and other residential communities in the neighborhood, NPBCP Amendment OS-1 would not create an isolated district unrelated to adjacent and nearby districts. A review of land use patterns in vicinity indicates that NPBCP Amendment OS-1 should have minimal. impacts upon neighboring properties, As a result, it is concluded that. the approval of NPBCP Amendment OS-1 would not constitute a grant of special privilege to an individual property owner, as contrasted with the protection of the public welfare. It is further concluded that the proposed residential designation should not adversely affect the values of neighboring properties. The greatest concerns, however, aze noise and hours of operation at the Public Safety Department, Iocated immediately to the north, as they may negatively impact residents of the proposed Mariner Court. According to the Public Safety Department, the Village responded to 155 calls, an average of approximately S calls per day, during the month of January 2005, according to the following distribution throughout the day: Time Slot Calls Percent 7:00 AM - 3:00 PM 68 44 3x:00 PM - 11:00 PM S8 3? 11:00 PM - 7:00 AM 29 19 Totals LSS 1.00 S-2 From the above data, 81% of the calls were between. the hours of ?:00 AM and 11:00 PM. In addition to fire/rescue calls, other activities/equipment can cause noise, including: (1) Each Tuesday night, the Village's volunteer f re fighters practice; and (2) each week the .Public Safety Department's emergency generator is tested. The above items have the potential to create incompatibility between the Public Safety Department use and the proposed Mariner Court,.. located to its south. However, according to the Public Safety Department, there are virtuaIly no related complaints from residents of the single- fan~iiy subdivision .located to the east of the facility. Separation distance, screening and landscaping are cited as possible reasons for the Iack of complaints. These techniques can be used at the proposed Mariner Court to mitigate potential adverse impacts of operations at the Public Safety Department. 4. Changed Conditions. The issue of changed conditions justifying NPBCP Amendment OS-1 is addressed in the Future Land Use Amendment application by Applicant's agent. A summary of the justifzcation is as follows: Palm Beach County is experiencing rapid population growth, and related demand for new housing units. However, due in part to the reduction in available residential land, new home sales have recently declined. In part to address the issue of continued demand for new residential units, the Florida Department of Community Affairs instituted the "Eastward Ho" initiative, whose goal was to examine the ability of the eastern areas of South Florida to support in-fill development and redevelopment. The "Eastward Ho" study confirmed the ability of existing infrastructure to support in-fill development and redevelopment in many areas of South Florida, and recommended that local governments work to identify under-utilized areas within existing urban environments and promote new development opportunities. Most of the U.S. Highway No. 1 corridor in the Village has a Commercial future land use designation. However, due fio changing of&ce and retail markets in the north County area, there are a number of vacancies in local commercial buildings, and other properties, such as the subject site, are under utilized. Proposed NPBCP Amendment 05-1, with available infrastructure services, is consistent with the "Eastward Ho" initiative and will create the following positive results: (1}Increase the Village property tax base; (2) add. to the residential support base for neighboring businesses; and (3) provide additional housing opportunities proximate to employers located along U.S. Highway No. 1. 5-3 5.2 STAFF RECO1bIlVIENDATIONS Staff recommends that the Village Council approve NPBCP Amendment. OS- I . It is further recommended that, at the tune of site nian approval, a condition of approval be included requiring the developer to provide a written disclosure statement with the marketing documents to potential townhouse buyers of the location of the Public Safety Department. The disclosure statement shall be signed by a buyer at the time of contract and closing. 5.3 LPA PUBLIC HEARING An advertised public hearing on NPBCP Amendment 03-1 was held at ?:00 P.M. on March 1, 2005 in the Village Hall.
