Background:
On October 3, 2019, the Town Commission approved a special exception (Resolution No. 19-027)
allowing for an accessory use (dot lot and walkway) and a unity of title (Resolution No. 19-028)
for the properties located at 3833 South Ocean Boulevard and 3906 South Ocean Boulevard.
Request and Analysis:
The Applicant is proposing to install a four (4) post 24,000 pound capacity boat lift, a 7,000 pound
capacity personal watercraft boat lift, and two (2) mooring pile clusters (one 2-pile and one 3-pile)
for the property located at 3833 South Ocean boulevard. The property is noncontiguous (see attached
aerial) and the request applies to that portion of the property located adjacent to the Intracoastal
Waterway (ICW) on the westside of State Road A1A.
The Applicant has obtained both Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) and US
Army Corps of Engineers (ACOE) approval for the above-referenced items (File No. 50-0373292-
004-005-006-EE and SAJ-2019-04365(GP-PWB,) respectively). Note that both agency approvals
include the replacement of an existing 6,299 square foot dock (including access pier and terminal
platform) in the same location, configuration and dimensions as the existing dock. According to
Town records, a dock permit was approved in 1998 and in 2001 (BP-12137 and BP-15093,
respectively). A special exception approval is not required for the dock replacement g iven that it
is within the same footprint , configuration and dimensions of the previously permitted dock . A
building permit for the dock replacement has been issued by the Building Department (No. 20-
0344).
The Applicant’s request is consistent with the definition of boat lift provided in Section 30 -131 of
the Town code as follows:
Boat lifts means the bottom of the keel of any boat shall not be hoisted greater than one
foot above the minimum seawall elevation. In no case shall the lift be higher than the
superstructure of the boat when lifted.
While the boat lifts proposed are moored perpendicular to the property, Section 30-68(g)(7) of the
Town code states that a boat moored in the ICW may be moored perpendicular to the property line,
subject to approval by the ACOE. As indicated above, the applicant has received ACOE approval.
Pursuant to Section 30-68(g)(6)d.2. of the Town Code, in multifamily residential zoning districts,
accessary marine facilities are exempt from side yard setback requirements. The Applicant’s request
is consistent with the special exception criteria of Section 30-36 of the Town Code (see attached),
were applicable, including consistency with the Town Comprehensive Plan and Code of Ordinances.
Section 30-68(c) of the Town Code states that if lots or portion of lots under the same ownership
are divided by a s treet, but are no more than 1000 feet from one another, measured from the
closest boundary points, the town commission may permit accessory uses or structures on such
noncontiguous lot or portion of lots . The distance between the two portions of the property divided
by State Road A1A is approximately 150 feet. That said, Section 30-36 of the Town Code states
that in such cases when the town commission is the final authority, the town commission,
Page 12
following an advisory recommendation by the planning board, may approve, approve with
conditions, or deny a request for special exception approval.
Staff recommends approval of the special exception request to install a four (4) post 24,000 pound
capacity boat lift, a 7,000 pound capacity personal watercraft boat lift, and two (2) mooring pile
clusters subject to the following conditions and based on the plans date stamped received by the
Building Department on February 18, 2021:
1. Following approval by the Town Commission and prior to initiation of construction, the
Applicant will be required to obtain a building permit from the Town of Highland Beach
Building Department.
2. Pursuant to Section 30-21(g) of the Town Code, commencement of construction shall be
initiated within two (2) years following the date of approval by the Town Commission.
Completion of all conditions of approval shall occur within two (2) years following the date
of approval by the Town Commission.
Plans meet Town of Highland Beach Zoning and other governmental agencies
requirements, and are consistent with the Town Comprehensive Plan.
Plans meet Town of Highland Beach Zoning requirements; however, approvals are
pending before the Town of Highland Beah will issue permits, with other
governmental agencies as listed.
Plans do not meet Town of Highland Beach Zoning requirements.

Re: File No.: 50-0373292-004-005-006-EE
File Name: Rothberg
Dear Michael Rothberg:
On August 19, 2019, we received your request for verification of exemption to perform the
following activities: (1) replace an existing 6,299 sq. ft. dock in the same location and
configuration and dimensions as the existing dock; (2) remove existing boatlift; (3) install
mooring piles; and, (4) install two boatlifts. The project is located in the Intracoastal Waterway,
Class III Waters, adjacent to 3921 S Ocean Blvd, Highland Beach (Section 4, Township 47
South, Range 43 East), in Palm Beach County (Latitude N 26° 24’ 20.68”, Longitude W -80° 4’
5.60”).
Your request has been reviewed to determine whether it qualifies for (1) regulatory exemption,
(2) proprietary authorization (related to state-owned submerged lands), and (3) federal approval
that may be necessary for work in wetlands or waters of the United States.
Your project did not qualify for the federal authorization of this verification request. Additional
authorization must be obtained prior to commencement of the proposed activity. This letter
does not relieve you from the responsibility of obtaining other federal, state, or local
authorizations that may be required for the activity. Please refer to the specific section(s) dealing
with that portion of the review below for advice on how to proceed.
If you change the project from what you submitted, the authorization(s) granted may no longer
be valid at the time of commencement of the project. Please contact us prior to beginning your
project if you wish to make any changes.
If you have any questions regarding this matter, please contact Kaitlyn Mallett at the letterhead
address or at 561-681-6658, Kaitlyn.Mallett@FloridaDEP.gov .

1. Regulatory Review – VERIFIED
Based on the information submitted, the Department has verified that the activities as proposed
are exempt, under Chapter 62-330.051(5)(a), (5)(d), and (5)(h), Florida Administrative Code,
from the need to obtain a regulatory permit under Part IV of Chapter 373 of the Florida Statutes.
This exemption verification is based on the information you provided the Department and the
statutes and rules in effect when the information was submitted. This verification may not be
valid if site conditions materially change, the project design is modified, or the statutes or rules
governing the exempt activity are amended. In the event you need to re-verify the exempt status
for the activity, a new request and verification fee will be required. Any substantial
modifications to the project design should be submitted to the Department for review, as changes
may result in a permit being required.
2. Proprietary Review- NOT REQUIRED
The activity does not appear to be located on sovereign submerged lands, and does not require
further authorization under chapter 253 of the Florida Statutes, or chapters 18-20 or 18-21 of the
Florida Administrative Code.
3. Federal Review - NOT APPROVED
Your proposed activity as outlined on your application and attached drawings does not qualify
for Federal authorization pursuant to the State Programmatic General Permit and a SEPARATE
permit or authorization shall be required from the Corps. You must apply separately to the
Corps using their APPLICATION FOR DEPARTMENT OF THE ARMY PERMIT, ENG
FORM 4345, or alternative as allowed by their regulations. More information on Corps
permitting may be found online in the Jacksonville District Regulatory Division Source Book at:
https://www.saj.usace.army.mil/Missions/Regulatory/Source-Book.
Authority for review - an agreement with the USACOE entitled “Coordination Agreement
Between the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers (Jacksonville District) and the Florida Department
of Environmental Protection (or Duly Authorized Designee), State Programmatic General
Permit”, Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbor Act of 1899, and Section 404 of the Clean Water
Act.
Additional Information
Please retain this letter. The activities may be inspected by authorized state personnel in the
future to ensure compliance with appropriate statutes and administrative codes. If the activities
are not in compliance, you may be subject to penalties under Chapter 373, F.S., and Chapter 18-
14, F.A.C.

STANDARD MANATEE CONDITIONS FOR IN-WATER WORK
2011
The permittee shall comply with the following conditions intended to protect manatees from direct project
effects:
a. All personnel associated with the project shall be instructed about the presence of manatees and
manatee speed zones, and the need to avoid collisions with and injury to manatees. The
permittee shall advise all construction personnel that there are civil and criminal penalties for
harming, harassing, or killing manatees which are protected under the Marine Mammal Protection
Act, the Endangered Species Act, and the Florida Manatee Sanctuary Act.
b. All vessels associated with the construction project shall operate at "Idle Speed/No Wake” at all
times while in the immediate area and while in water where the draft of the vessel provides less
than a four-foot clearance from the bottom. All vessels will follow routes of deep water whenever
possible.
c. Siltation or turbidity barriers shall be made of material in which manatees cannot become
entangled, shall be properly secured, and shall be regularly monitored to avoid manatee
entanglement or entrapment. Barriers must not impede manatee movement.
d. All on-site project personnel are responsible for observing water-related activities for the presence
of manatee(s). All in-water operations, including vessels, must be shutdown if a manatee(s)
comes within 50 feet of the operation. Activities will not resume until the manatee(s) has moved
beyond the 50-foot radius of the project operation, or until 30 minutes elapses if the manatee(s)
has not reappeared within 50 feet of the operation. Animals must not be herded away or harassed
into leaving.
e. Any collision with or injury to a manatee shall be reported immediately to the Florida Fish and
Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) Hotline at 1-888-404-3922. Collision and/or injury
should also be reported to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service in Jacksonville (1-904-731-3336) for
north Florida or Vero Beach (1-772-562-3909) for south Florida, and to FWC at
ImperiledSpecies@myFWC.com
f. Temporary signs concerning manatees shall be posted prior to and during all in-water project
activities. All signs are to be removed by the permittee upon completion of the project. Temporary
signs that have already been approved for this use by the FWC must be used. One sign which
reads Caution: Boaters must be posted. A second sign measuring at least 8 ½” by 11" explaining
the requirements for “Idle Speed/No Wake” and the shut down of in-water operations must be
posted in a location prominently visible to all personnel engaged in water-related activities. These
signs can be viewed at MyFWC.com/manatee. Questions concerning these signs can be sent to
the email address listed above.

Opinion (JaxBO) Project Design Criteria (PDCs) for In-Water Activities
November 20, 2017
1)(AP .7.) Education and Observation: The permittee must ensure that all personnel
associated with the project are instructed about the potential presence of species
protected under the ESA and the Marine Mammal Protection Act (MMPA). All on-site
project personnel are responsible for observing water-related activities for the
presence of protected species. All personnel shall be advised that there are civil and
criminal penalties for harming, harassing, or killing ESA-listed species or marine
mammals. To determine which species may be found in the project area, please
review the relevant Protected Species List at:
http://sero.nmfs.noaa.gov/protected_resources/section_7/threatened_endangered/in
dex.html
2)(AP .8.) Reporting of interactions with protected species:
a)Any collision(s) with and/or injury to any sea turtle, sawfish, whale, or sturgeon
occurring during the construction of a project, shall be reported immediately to
NMFS’s Protected Resources Division (PRD) at (1-727-824-5312) or by email to
takereport.nmfsser@noaa.gov and SAJ-RD-Enforcement@usace.army.mil.
b)Smalltooth sawfish: Report sightings to 1-844-SAWFISH or email
Sawfish@MyFWC.com
c)Sturgeon: Report dead sturgeon to 1-844-STURG 911 (1-844-788-7491) or email
nmfs.ser.sturgeonnetwork@noaa.gov
d)Sea turtles and marine mammals: Report stranded, injured, or dead animals to 1-
877-WHALE HELP (1-877-942-5343).
e)North Atlantic right whale: Report injured, dead, or entangled right whales to the
USCG via VHF Channel 16.
3)(AP .9.) Vessel Traffic and Construction Equipment: All vessel operators must
watch for and avoid collision with species protected under the ESA and MMPA.
Vessel operators must avoid potential interactions with protected species and
operate in accordance with the following protective measures:
a)Construction Equipment:
i)All vessels associated with the construction project shall operate at “Idle
Speed/No Wake” at all times while operating in water depths where the draft
of the vessel provides less than a 4-foot (ft) clearance from the bottom, and in
all depths after a protected species has been observed in and has departed
the area.
ii)All vessels will follow marked channels and/or routes using the maximum
water depth whenever possible.
iii)Operation of any mechanical construction equipment, including vessels, shall
cease immediately if a listed species is observed within a 50-ft radius of
Page 55
construction equipment and shall not resume until the species has departed
the area of its own volition.
iv)If the detection of species is not possible during certain weather conditions
(e.g., fog, rain, wind), then in-water operations will cease until weather
conditions improve and detection is again feasible.
b)All Vessels:
i)Sea turtles: Maintain a minimum distance of 150 ft.
ii)North Atlantic right whale: Maintain a minimum 1,500-ft distance (500 yards).
iii)Vessels 65 ft in length or longer must comply with the Right Whale Ship Strike
Reduction Rule (50 CFR 224.105) which includes reducing speeds to 10
knots or less in Seasonal Management Areas
(http://www.fisheries.noaa.gov/pr/shipstrike/).
iv)Mariners shall check various communication media for general information
regarding avoiding ship strikes and specific information regarding right whale
sightings in the area. These include NOAA weather radio, USCG NAVTEX
broadcasts, and Notices to Mariners.
v)Marine mammals (i.e., dolphins, whales [other than North Atlantic right
whales], and porpoises): Maintain a minimum distance of 300 ft.
vi)When these animals are sighted while the vessel is underway (e.g., bow-
riding), attempt to remain parallel to the animal’s course. Avoid excessive
speed or abrupt changes in direction until they have left the area.
vii)Reduce speed to 10 knots or less when mother/calf pairs or groups of marine
mammals are observed, when safety permits.
4)(AP.10.) Turbidity Control Measures during Construction: Turbidity must be
monitored and controlled. Prior to initiating any of the work covered under this
Opinion, the Permittee shall install turbidity curtains as described below. In some
instances, the use of turbidity curtains may be waived by the USACE project
manager if the project is deemed too minimal to generate turbidity (e.g., certain
ATON installation, scientific survey device placement, marine debris removal) or if
the current is too strong for the curtains to stay in place. Turbidity curtains
specifications:
a)Install floating turbidity barriers with weighted skirts that extend to within 1 ft of
the bottom around all work areas that are in, or adjacent to, surface waters.
b)Use these turbidity barriers throughout construction to control erosion and
siltation and ensure that turbidity levels within the project area do not exceed
background conditions.
c)Position turbidity barriers in a way that does not block species’ entry to or exit
from designated critical habitat.
d)Monitor and maintain turbidity barriers in place until the authorized work has
been completed and the water quality in the project area has returned to
background conditions.
e)In the range of ESA-listed corals (St. Lucie Inlet, Martin County south to the Dry
Tortugas and the U.S. Caribbean) and Johnson’s seagrass (Turkey Creek/Palm

i)Projects that include upland earth moving (e.g., grading to install a building or
parking lot associated with a dock and seawall project), must install sediment
control barriers to prevent any upland sediments from reaching estuarine or
marine waters.
ii)The turbidity curtain requirement cannot be waived for any project that moves
or removes sediment (e.g., dredging, auger to create a pile, trenching to
install a cableline). If turbidity curtains are not feasible in an area based on
site conditions such as water current, high wave action, or stormy conditions,
the project must undergo individual Section 7 consultation and is not covered
under this Programmatic Opinion.
5)(AP.11.) Entanglement: All turbidity curtains and other in-water equipment must be
properly secured with materials that reduce the risk of entanglement of marine
species (described below). Turbidity curtains likewise must be made of materials
that reduce the risk of entanglement of marine species.
a)In-water lines (rope, chain, and cable, including the lines to secure turbidity
curtains) must be stiff, taut, and non-looping. Examples of such lines are heavy
metal chains or heavy cables that do not readily loop and tangle. Flexible in-
water lines, such as nylon rope or any lines that could loop or tangle, must be
enclosed in a plastic or rubber sleeve/tube to add rigidity and prevent the line
from looping and tangling. In all instances, no excess line is allowed in the water.
b)Turbidity curtains and other in-water equipment must be placed in a manner that
does not entrap species within the construction area or block access for them to
navigate around the construction area.
