We’re pleased to announce that Cypress Creek is moving to a new Visitor Management Software designed to streamline our visitor management process. The transition to this enhanced system comes at no cost to our Association and is required because our gate access vendor no longer supports WebGuest.
What This Means for You:
EntranceIQ will replace our current Safehouse Webguest system, offering more efficient and user-friendly features, including:
● Quick and easy visitor registration
● Real-time notifications and updates about visitor arrivals and departures
What to Expect: Look for an email on June 18 with the subject line “Welcome to EIQ” which will
come from “Donotreply@entranceiq.app.” This email will explain how to download the new
resident’s app called EIQ Connect and activate your account.
Do I have to re-enter my guests?: Hopefully not. Once you download the app and log into your new account, your work should be done! Your previously approved guests and vendors should be automatically transferred to the new system. However, this is a good time to verify that your list is still accurate and to remove anyone who is no longer needed.
What if I need help?: In your activation email, you’ll receive access to a tutorial and other tips.
If you need additional help throughout the transition, the EntranceIQ team will be available to
provide support and assistance. Our property management team from Tallfield is also on tap to
provide further assistance.
Please reach out by emailing at ccpoa@tallfield.com. Some people with older mobile devices may need additional troubleshooting guidance, which Tallfield can provide.

CCPOA Board representatives met with Toll Brothers on June 4 to continue negotiating important changes to the developer's site plan and secure concessions. Consistent with the results from the community survey, the Board continued to emphasize changes in the site plan which address the neighborhood's top concerns and minimize the impact of the proposed development on those most directly affected. Many topics were addressed, including the following:
Securing financial contributions for perimeter improvements and Association reserves
Committing to transparency about soil sample results / toxin reports
Adjusting site plan to improve compatibility with Cypress Creek (i.e. single-story homes, etc.)
Increasing the compatibility buffer between the proposed development and Cypress Creek

Toll Brothers June 13 response (pdf)
DownloadFor months now, it has been the Board of Directors’ understanding that the Live Local Act does not apply to the Cypress Creek golf course parcel. Many in the neighborhood have disputed this and have used the Live Local Act as a scare tactic in the community. These individuals claimed that should the Toll Brothers’ development plan be rejected, then another developer could purchase the golf course and build hundreds of multi-family, affordable housing units on the Cypress Creek golf course parcel. You might have even received a letter in the mail from candidates seeking a position on the Board, or received misinformation from a neighbor, threatening this possibility.
We have recently received official evidence in the form of correspondence from two governmental sources which negate these unfounded threats.
From Whitney Carroll, Executive Director of Palm Beach County Planning, Zoning and Building, the Live Local act “is only applicable to the land currently zoned commercial, industrial, or mixed use. The underlying zoning of the Cypress Golf Course is residential and, therefore, not eligible to take advantage of the provisions in the Live Local Act.”
From our Palm Beach Commissioner Gregg Weiss’ office, “on whether the live local act applies to the Cypress Creek development. In short, it does not. The Live local act (link below included) allows for streamlined development of affordable multifamily rental housing in commercial, industrial, and mixed-use zoned areas under certain circumstances.
https://www.flsenate.gov/Committees/BillSummaries/2023/html/3068
The Cypress Creek community is zoned RS which stands for Residential Single Family. The Golf course is zoned AR which stands for Agricultural Residential.”
Thus, it is clear that the Live Local Act DOES NOT APPLY to the Cypress Creek Golf Course parcel.
Delegates from the association representing many West Boynton communities, called COBWRA, voted to conditionally support Toll Brothers’ redevelopment proposal for the Cypress Creek Golf course. The support is conditional on 1) Palm Beach County allowing Toll Brothers to "buy out" of the requirement to include a civic pod which would allow the County to build a 27,500 sq. foot office building at the corner of Palo Verde Dr and Military Trail; and 2) Toll Brother and the County developing a traffic plan to mitigate the traffic and congestion resulting from the proposed development. In particular, COBWRA expressed concerns about the effect the development would have on those trying to enter and exit Mirror Lakes.
This vote follows approving votes by the coalition’s Growth Management Committee and Board of Directors on May 7th. The seven delegates who voted against the proposal included our delegate from Cypress Creek who expressed continued and unresolved concerns about toxins, drainage, incompatibility, traffic and other impacts on neighboring communities.
What does this mean?
What’s next?
Toll Brothers’ proposal is targeted to go to the Palm Beach County Zoning Commission on July 2. A Board of County Commissioners' Hearing will follow on July 18.
We now have a look into Toll Brothers’ site plan with proposed lot locations and lot sizes. This and other details are part of new or updated filings submitted this week to the county.
A few things of note:
● The number of proposed lots is 152 and lot sizes range from about 8,255 to 10,400 square feet. Cypress Creek’s average lot size is 14,882 square feet per Toll Brothers’ filings, although our lots include our portion of our private roads (we’re still significantly larger). Side setbacks (i.e., the distance between a home and the property line) are 7.5’ compared to our minimum 15’ side setbacks or 20’ side setbacks for some existing homes that abut the golf course property, such as those along Cross Creek.
● The developer has applied for special permission to remove more than 10% (or 353,000 cubic yards) of excavated soil from the site to create proposed lakes. This is an increase in the amount of contaminated soil needed to be removed from the site since the last filing. The lake excavations are expected to take 9 months.
● Per Toll Brothers, the adjustment in soil removal is because of “changed conditions or circumstances.” The filing says the additional lake area is needed to accommodate the development and further provide drainage for the surrounding community. We hope this is a sign that the developer is listening to our drainage concerns. Our independent engineer should have an opportunity to review the changes.
There are more details about the proposed 20’ buffers between existing Cypress Creek homes and Toll Brothers’ proposed sites. There will be a “decorative” 6’ fence (compared to 4’ feet), shrubs and a mix of taller trees (maturity unknown). This will sit on an area between our two communities that is roughly the length of an average parking space.
This does not represent a comprehensive assessment of the latest filings. To view the Toll Brothers’ application and newer filings yourself, visit PBC’s zoning site: https://www.pbcgov.org/ePZB.Admin.WebSPA/#/PanelContainer/ControlNoHistory
(Tips on “how to” search for the application are at the very bottom of the Association’s webpage at cypresscreekpoa.org under the Toll Brothers page)
During the March 21 Cypress Creek Property Owners’ Association (CCPOA) Directors’ meeting, the Board unanimously voted to hire an independent engineer to evaluate Toll Brothers’
drainage plans in an effort to minimize the potential for long-lasting and irreversible damage to our neighborhood. Toll Brothers’ redevelopment plan calls for 160 homes, paved roads and other impermeable surfaces across what has been our community’s drainage basin for decades. By code, Toll Brothers’ homes will be built at a higher elevation and to a higher storm-event standard than our neighborhood, potentially leaving our lower-lying homes even more vulnerable. The Board firmly believes it has the obligation to do what we can to protect our homeowners’ assets, and your house is the most valuable asset you have.

KEEP OUR STORM DRAINS CLEAR
CCPOA Board would like to request that you coordinate with your landscapers to ensure storm drains are not blocked by debris, for example: palm fronds, clippings, coconuts etc. As we have all noticed, we have headed in to summer on a very rainy path. In an effort to control flooding on our streets, communication with your landscapers is essential. Please take note if you have storm drains on your property an help to keep them clear. Thank you for looking out for our beautiful community.
