The Delray Beach City Commission on Sept. 3 approved three conditional uses and related site improvements for All County Paving at 1180 Southwest 10th Street, allowing the company to expand onto an adjacent two‑acre parcel and to formalize outdoor aggregate storage, concrete (ready‑mix) operations, truck and light equipment parking, and private bulk fuel storage for company vehicles.
City staff and the applicant described the site as long established in its industrial land‑use designation; the owner acquired the property in 2012 and began operations there in 2014. Jeff Costello of JC Planning Solutions, representing All County Paving, told the commission the company employs about 100 people (roughly 50 on site at a time) and that the expansion will include parking, screened aggregate bins, a ready‑mix silo, new paving, drainage improvements and landscaping.
Planning staff noted the parcel is industrially zoned but backs onto residential zoning across Southwest 10th Street. Staff recommended approval subject to conditions designed to protect neighboring residences: a 60‑foot setback from Tenth Street for outdoor storage areas, a landscaped screening hedge along the north perimeter fence, watering protocols for sand to control dust, containment measures for fuel tanks, and annual inspections tied to Palm Beach County permits.
In the hearing the applicant agreed to a condition requested by the Planning & Zoning Board requiring a clusia hedge to be planted outside the north fence line to screen the residential view and to water sand stockpiles to control fugitive dust. The existing ready‑mix silo is about 38 feet tall and was described as meeting setback requirements; the private fuel tanks sit roughly 390 feet from the nearest residentially zoned property and are within a 5,500‑gallon containment area inspected annually by Palm Beach County.
The commission voted to approve the primary conditional use (concrete products manufacturing and aggregate storage) under resolution 1403‑25 (passed unanimously). It also approved a conditional use for truck and equipment parking (resolution 144‑25, passed unanimously). A separate conditional use to allow bulk fuel storage and related tanks (resolution 145‑25) passed on a 3–1 vote; Commissioner Cassell voted no.
Commissioners asked staff and the applicant how dust, lighting and overnight equipment staging would be managed; the applicant said sand is regularly watered and that heavy vehicle access is routed to the industrial Royal Palm Drive side of the property rather than across residential Tenth Street. Staff reminded the commission that conditional uses are revocable if conditions are violated and recommended follow‑up through the city’s code enforcement procedures and required administrative permits.
The approvals include requirements for a recorded plat, right‑of‑way dedication and final administrative site‑plan and landscape review before building permits are issued. The commission’s actions formalize long‑standing industrial uses but attach new screening, dust control and permitting obligations to protect adjacent residential areas.
