SUBJECT: Appeal of the decision of the Planning and Zoning Board approving a Site Plan (and reviewing supplemental information submitted by the Applicant) to allow construction of a two-story place of public assembly with a technical deviation from Section 23-190, Code of Ordinances, related to off-site vehicular circulation and maneuvering for the Chabad of East Boca located at 770 East Palmetto Park Road (Resolution No. 2015-007, SPA-14-09/14-95000005)
RECOMMENDATION
I recommend that the City Council uphold the decision of the Planning and Zoning Board approving a Site Plan (and reviewing supplemental information submitted by the Applicant) to allow construction of a two-story place of public assembly with a technical deviation from Section 23-190, Code of Ordinances,· related to off-site vehicular circulation and maneuvering for the Chabad of East Boca located at 770 for the Chabad of East Boca. This recommendation is based upon the opinion of the Development Services Department that the approved Site Plan is consistent with the City's Code of Ordinances.
NOTICES OF APPEAL FILED
Pursuant to Section 28-56, Code of Ordinances, if any party is aggrieved by a decision of the Planning and Zoning Board, such party may appeal within 30 days of the date of the written Resolution of the PZB to the City Council by filing a notice of appeal. Two (2) notices of appeal relating to the Site Plan approval (SPA-14-09/14-95000005) for the Chabad of East Boca project were submitted to the City by the following parties:
1. Arthur C. Koski, Esq. on behalf of Gerald and Deborah Gagliardi, Jon Randal McDonald, James and Nancy Hendrey, lan and MacDougall, Miles Olson, Keith Nelson, Chris and Lorraine Fluehr, Anthony DiDonato, Richard R.

Applicant and fail to consider the prima facie injuries to the aggrieved parties and in general, render a decision and/or recommendation that is contrary to the general welfare of the aggrieved parties.
2. John R. Eubanks, Jr., Esq. on behalf of Royal Palm Real Estate Holdings LLC, Royal Palm Properties LLC, and David W. Roberts. The Appellants are requesting that the subject project be denied based upon the following opinion:
• That the Planning and Zoning Board's decisions and/or recommendations violate multiple provisions of the City Code, rely upon improper interpretations of the Code, and/or were arbitrary and capricious and without reasonable analysis and investigation into the representations of the Applicant and the injuries sustained by (and /or general welfare) the Appellants.
BACKGROUND A public hearing on the Site Plan request was held by the Planning and Zoning Board on
March 19, 2015. The Applicant in connection with a related application for special case (for additional height) provided revisions to the Site Plan and documentation to clarify unresolved project issues and apparent inconsistencies, and the Planning and Zoning Board re-reviewed the Site plan application (as revised) on May 07, 2015.
Accordingly, on May 7, 2015, the Planning and Zoning Board granted Site Plan approval in a 5-1 vote (Resolution No. 2015-007) to allow construction of a two-story place of public assembly with a technical deviation from Section 23-190, Code of Ordinances, related to off-site vehicular circulation and maneuvering for the Chabad of East Boca located at 770 East Palmetto Park Road. Upon completion of the Board's public hearing, the following additional condition was approved by the Board:.
1. The Exhibit Hall attendance shall be limited to 87 visitors per hour in the a.m. or p.m. weekday peak hour. This attendance equates to a maximum of 40 peak hour trips on Palmetto Park Road to the west, in accordance with the insignificant impact analysis and determination to keep project traffic less than 1% of the level of service (LOS) D standard, as defined in Article 12 (Traffic Performance Standards) of the Palm Beach County Land Development Code. Any determination by the City or County that Exhibit Hall visitors exceed this amount will require the Owner to submit within 45 days of said determination a revised traffic study to retest for concurrency and consistency. If the study shows a failure of any test, as determined by City or County, the City may pursue code enforcement action and/or require the modification of this development approval or and/or pursue revocation of this development approval as provided in Section 4 of this Resolution set forth below.
At the May 07, 2015 Planning and Zoning Board meeting, the Site Plan and documentation to clarify unresolved issues and apparent inconsistencies submitted by the Applicant were reviewed accordingly. These revisions and clarifications to the Site Plan application included the following:
1. A revised Floor Area Ratio (FAR) calculation that included only the Local Business (B-1) zoning district portion of the parcel.
2
Page 3 Chabad of East Boca -Appeal
2. A revised vertical clearance of the ground floor parking area from 12 feet to 14 feet. This was a typographical error on the Site Plan and did not affect the overall height of the proposed project.
3. A correction to the number of required parking spaces for the Exhibit Hall from 11 to 13 parking spaces. The additional two (2) parking spaces corresponded to each employee of the Exhibit Hall at maximum shift and did not impact the overall number of required parking spaces. This correction to the Site Plan was made after the May 07, 2015 Planning and Zoning Board meeting and therefore was duly noted on the May 27, 2015 City Manager memorandum.
4. Supplemental information regarding bus maneuvering. Staff determined that the site will accommodate vehicles classified as "Passenger Car (P) Design Vehicle" per the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (MSHTO) design standards, and ¥ehicles not exceeding 22 feet in overall length, 10 feet in overall height and 8 (eight) feet in overall width. The Applicant did demonstrate that such vehicles can enter and exit the site on East Palmetto Park Road. No passenger loading/unloading shall take place on rights-of-way adjacent to the premises.
Additional revisions and clarifications, provided by the Applicant, to the Site Plan application including the application narrative and Site Plan are detailed in the May 07, 2015 planning report (see attached).
Pursuant to Section 28-777 of the City Code, places of public assembly are a permitted use in the Local Business (B-1) zoning district. Section 28-2 of the City Code states that places of public assembly shall mean any area, building or structure where people assemble for a common purpose, such as social, cultural, recreational and/or religious purposes, whether owned and/or maintained by a for-profit or not-for-profit entity, and includes, but is not limited to, public assembly buildings such as auditoriums, theaters, halls, private clubs and fraternal lodges, assembly halls, exhibition halls, convention centers, and places of worship, or other areas, buildings or structures that are used for religious purposes or assembly by persons.
Based on the most intense nonconcurrent use which is the Sanctuary, a total of 81 parking spaces are required and 81 parking spaces are provided on site. Vehicular access to the site is provided through one full access driveway connection on East Palmetto Park Road (classified as a minor driveway), and one right-in/left-in/left-out driveway on Southeast Olive Way (classified as a minor driveway). The project traffic consultant, JMD Engineering, Inc., prepared a traffic study and estimated the project's trip generation for the following three scenarios: weekday peak hour of adjacent street traffic, weekday peak hour of the generator, and Saturday peak hour of the generator. The study was reviewed by the Palm Beach County Traffic Engineer who found that the project met the Palm Beach County Traffic Performance Standards Ordinance subject to a maximum allowable attendance for the Exhibit Hall which is noted under condition (14) of the approved Site Plan (Resolution No. 2015-007). A technical deviation, pursuant to City Code Section 23-190(h), was required for off-site vehicular circulation and maneuvering. The project traffic consultant provided a technical deviation request and justification pursuant to City Code Section 23-190(k). With respect to the parking design, there is no on-site vehicular connection between two (2) proposed parking areas. However, given the relatively low traffic volumes anticipated in association with the use, as well as a net positive environmental benefit, an internal connection is not critical to the site's operation. The City Traffic Engineer did not object to the technical deviation to allow for off-site vehicular circulation

CHABAD OF EAST BOCA
PROJECT NARRATIVE
(561) 398-1403 fax (561) 750-WSl
The project consists of the construction of a new synagogue for Chabad of East Boca including an Exhibit Hall (My Israel), and other facilities. The Chabad is currently located at 120 N.E. 1ST Ave. in downtown Boca Raton since March 2002 and will be relocating to the proposed new location.
The proposed project site is located on the southwest corner of Palmetto Park Road and Olive Way. The total site comprises approximately 0.84 acres of total site area with a frontage of approximately 300ft. on Palmetto Park Road & approximately 118ft. frontage on Olive Way. The property is currently vacant and was previously occupied by La
·, Ville Maison French Restaurant which was demolished in 2011.
The property is zoned B-1 except for the small southern triangular portion qf land which is zoned R-1-C. The surrounding properties are zoned B-1 except for the adjoining properties to the south which are zoned R-1-C for which a district boundary building setback of 25 feet is required and provided.
The proposed project consists of a two story above ground building containing 18,364 square feet of gross building area and a below-grade parking garage structure containing 26,265 square feet with a capacity of 56 parking spaces. In addition an above grade open parking area containing 25 parking spaces is provided on the west side of the property over portion of the basement parking garage structure, thus totaling 81 spaces.
The first floor will contain the first 'floor Sanctumy with a seating capacity of 156 people, daily chapel, social hall, children's playroom, kitchen, bookstore/gift shop, required public toilet facilities, janitor closet and other supporting areas.
The second floor consists of two building wings which are interconnected by an open covered plaza and uncovered sculpture garden. The east wing building will house the second floor portion of the Sanctuary with a seating capacity of 66 people (total Sanctuary capacity= 156 + 66 = 222 seats), and administrative offices. The west wing building consists of a 5,967 square feet Exhibit Hall (My Israel) which is above the first floor open parking area.
CHABAD OF EAST BOCA:
A brief description of the different, activities that will occur within the proposed facility are as follows:
• Daily Chapel The Daily chapel is for daily morning and evening services. Morning services are typically from 7:30a.m.- 8:15a.m. and evening services begin at sundown and continue for I hour. Attendance is 12-15 people.
During the balance of the normal weekday the Daily Chapel is used for individual and collaborative studies by rabbinical students/interns (12), and has a separate. pedestrian entrance.
" Sanctuary The Sanctuary is for Sabbath (weekend) and "Jewish" Holiday Services. Shabbat Services are Friday evening's beginning at sundown and Saturday mornings are from 9:30a.m.- 12:00 pm. The average projected attendance for the Friday evening services is 25 - 35 people, and the average projected attendance for Saturday morning services is 60 -70 people. The majority of attendees (70% +)to Sabbath services, walk to the Synagogue, as they do now at Chabad's current location.
High Holidays: The currently projected attendance is 150 people, however the facility can support a maximum capacity of 222 fixed seats and a total of 243 attendees. Inasmuch as advanced reservations are required for the High Holy Day services, the capacity/attendees will be regulated through the advanced reservations.
" Social Hall The Social Hall's primary usage is for- after service buffet brunch on Saturday. It will also be used for monthly Friday night community dinners that will be attended by 50- 75 people. The primary functions of the Sanctuary and Social Hall will be non-concurrent as they are in other like facilities within the community.
Either the Sanctuary or the Social Hall may be used for guest speakers, events, and parties.
• Children's Playroom This area is primarily for younger children whose parents are attending services or events.
2
" Bookstore/ Gift Shop This will be a shop with a limited selection of religious books and items for sale. The shops l!Ormal business hours are Sunday- Friday, 10:00 a.m.-4:00p.m. It will be closed on Sabbath and on "Jewish" Holidays.
• Exhibit Hall ( also known as My Israel Center) The Exhibit Hall (My Israel Center) offers various interactive learning experiences reflecting the history of the Jewish people. It is designed to accommodate 25 - 30-people at a time within the Exhibit Hall itself. There will be scheduled visits by school groups and other groups and limited hours open to the public.
Tours (public and otherwise) will be arranged by reservation and conducted Sunday- Thursday from 9:30a.m. 5:00 p.m. and Friday 9:30a.m.- 3:00p.m. The Exhibit Hall is to be closed on Sabbath and "Jewish" Holidays.
All groups arriving at the site will be dropped off at the ground floor "Entry Court" where they will be greeted and directed to the bookstore/gift shop where they will obtain their tickets. Upon receiving their tickets, they will then proceed to the second floor "Covered Plaza" and/or "Uncovered Sculpture Garden" as the entrance to the Exhibit Hall is immediately adjacent to that area.
As Visitors intermittently enter, their tickets will be taken and will be given a brief monologue as to the elements and contents which they are about to view and interact with; thus, the queuing will be organized and monitored as to the flow of visitors. '
The second floor Covered Plaza and Uncovered Sculpture Garden provides an area to stage and queue small and large groups (30 person maximum), both entering and exiting. As visitors exit the Exhibit Hall, they will return to the ground level via the stairs or the elevator and hopefully visit the gift shop while waiting for the balance of their group to exit.
o Office and administrative There will be five full time employees at the center. Operational hours: Monday through Friday 9:00a.m.- 5:00p.m. The offices will be closed on the Sabbath, Sundays, and on "Jewish" Holidays.
" Concun·ent/Non-Concurrent Uses The three (3) Primary Uses: Sanctuary, Social Hall, an Exhibit Hall shall be non-concurrent, and other uses, including the office, can be concurrent.
In no event will there be a combination of uses which exceed the requirements for the parking (i.e. 81 spaces).
(The non-concurrent parking is calculated pursuant to section 28-1655 of the City code)
