Mr. res re ded th when he sented this project at the

items. He cal att tion to t w drawings with the received

He th ointed o the etscape which indicated the proposed
dwellin 's not ou of le with the homes on both sides and that
he also i uded a 'ne of vision from the street. Mr. Linares said
he has lowe the 'nished floor of the gate house 2 feet. He then
displayed a ne le roof tile that was a flat, very dark grey
color.
Chairman Kent questioned the gables on the front of the house and on
the gate house and Mr. Linares said those were architectural
features that he would like to keep but can have another look at
them. It was further pointed out that the roof height of the first
story of the two story house is in the discouraged range and Mr.
Linares said that he would also look at that. Mr. Kent also called
attention to the eave height on the gate house and believed it
could be lowered to further address the massing. Mrs. Jones felt
2

that the gable does add to the architectural appeal. Mr. Lineras
said that perhaps the roof can be lowered 12 inches.
Mr. Kent reminded that all of the discouraged items must be reviewed
with regard to consistency in 5 areas. The discouraged items are:
1) The overall heights of the gate house; 2) The height of the one
story section of the 2 story house; 3) The save heights on the
house; 4) The clipped gable facing the strIAL.

TOWN OF GULF STREAM
ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW AND PLANNING REPORT
Application #:17-08 Owner: Adrie & Kristina Ermers
Address: 800 Canary Walk Agent: Matt Wolf, Edgewater Building Group
Proposed Improvement: A revision to approved plans regarding Landscaping,
Style of Outside Lights and to the Chain Link Fence
Installation.
Approvals Requested:
Landscape Revisions: For site landscape revisions considered by the staff to
be major modifications.
Style Revisions to Outside Lighting. For a complete change in the style of outside light
fixtures.
Chain Link Fence Installation:
Gross Lot size: 23,224 SF
Proposed Total Floor Area: 6,654 SF
Zoning District: RS -P
Finished Floor: 7.5' NGVD
Issues Considered During Review:
For the installation of the landscaping along the inside
of a chain link fence rather than the outside of the chain
link fence.
Effective Lot Area: 23,224 SF
Allowable: 7,245 SF
Height: 28.5' (roof height <_ 30' Preferred)
Section 66-166 Violation of condition of approval
Section 70-187.6 Table of district standards - Fences
Section 70-216 Generally - Spanish Mediterranean architectural style
Notes:
1. The original application was approved with the condition that "any minor modification
in the landscape plan shall be submitted to the Town Manager for review and approval
and any major modifications shall be brought back to the ARPB for review and approval,
prior to commencement of landscaping". Upon final inspection by the Town staff, it
found modifications to the approved landscape plan had occurred without any
notification to the staff. It is the staff's opinion that the modifications made to the
approved plan are major and require ARPB approval.
The plant count on the original plan approved by the town is 854. The plant count on the
as -built landscape plan is 557.
2. The original application was approved with an exterior pendant light fixture and a
matching exterior wall mounted light fixture. Upon final inspection of the light fixtures,
the staff found that the style of the exterior lighting fixtures was completely modified
with a new design.
3. The new chain link fencing was installed along the sides of the house without obtaining a
fence permit. Landscaping was added on the inside of the fence for screening
requirements. However, the code requires that screening of fencing be placed on the
outside of the fence to screen the it from their neighbor's view and to screen the fence
from public and private roadways.
Staff Recommendations:
1. The staff agrees with three specific revisions from the original landscape plan:
Architectural Review & Planning Board
ARPB File #07-08
December 28, 2017, TC Feb. 9, 2018, ARPB March 22, 2018
• Revisions immediately south of the pool/ deck area provide more screening for
the pool area and back door to the house.
• The partial substitution of Areca Palms for Clusia Rosea on the west fence line
provides immediate screening for the house from Federal Highway and the vacant
lot.
• The reduction of landscaping on the west side of the driveway made necessary by
the ultimate location of the septic tank.
Motion to recommend approval of the landscape modifications.
2. It is the staff's opinion that the lighting fixtures as presented by the owner and architect
in the original application, maintain the desired character and quality of the architectural
style. Subsequent to the approval, the owners chose to unilaterally change the style of
the fixtures that do not maintain consistency of architectural style, without consulting the
Town.
Motion to recommend denial of the modifications to the lighting fixtures.
3. Chain link fencing is only allowed if it is screened by landscaping planted such that it
screens the fence from neighbor views and from public and private roadways. In this
case, the landscaping was planted on the inside of the fence, therefore, it did not meet the
screening requirement for a chain link fence. The alternatives to mitigate the error would
be to move either the fence or replant the vegetation to meet the screening requirement.
The installation of a fence requires a permit in the Town of Gulf Stream. The applicant
did not apply for a fence permit before installing the fence. Had the applicant applied for
a fence permit, they would have been counseled as to the code requirements regarding
such installation.
Motion to recommend denial of the modification of the chain link fence installation.
ARPB Date: December 28, 2017
Action:
Landscape Revisions: Vice Chairman Smith moved to recommend that the changes that were
made in the side and rear yards be approved but that the changes in the front of the home not
be approved and that the original plan for the front landscaping be followed. Mr. Murphy
seconded the motion and all voted AYE at roll call.
Style Revisions to Outside Lighting Fixtures: All were in agreement that the outside lighting
fixtures are in keeping with the architectural style of the building even though they are not the
style that was originally approved and Mr. Murphy moved and Mr. Roach seconded to
recommend that the fixtures that were installed be approved. All voted AYE at roll call.
Chain Link Fence Installation Revisions: The Board asked that the Town Manager contact the
adjacent neighbors to determine if they approve of the planting along the fence and feel that
it affords the necessary screening. Mr. Murphy then moved to recommend that the fence and
plantings remain as installed provided that the neighbors have no objections. Vice
Chairman Smith seconded the motion and all voted AYE at roll call.
TC Date: February 9, 2018 at 9:00 A.M.
Landscape Revisions: The landscaping in the back and on the sides was approved as
recommended by ARPB. The Commission directed
that the plan for landscaping in the front be sent
back to ARPB for a final review with scale
measurements in an effort to replicate the plan for
this area that was originally approved on 1-8-16.
(5-0)
Style Revisions to Outside Lighting Fixtures: Approved the change in lighting fixtures as
recommended by ARPB. (5-0)
Chain Link Fence Installation Revisions: Approved as installed and recommended by ARPB.
