IV. The Town Clerk requested that the request for a construction trailer for Slate Construction Mgmt. be added as item VI. D. for site plan approval in the event it is approved under the special exception. There were no objections. V. PUBLIC HEARING A. Variances 1. Amy Van Hoose, Agent for Malcolm R. Butler, 4225 N. County Road, Gulf Stream, F1. 33483 requesting a variance to permit alteration of a non -conforming structure by the addition of a garage which will encroach 5 feet into the required 15 foot side yard on the north side and to permit the garage doors to face the street at the address aforementioned. Lee Brooke, owner of an adjacent property, expressed concern that she would be looking at a blank wall when the second story was added. (Note: The 2nd story did not require a variance.) She requested that landscaping be added to soften the effect. She also questioned where the utility pole would be moved to that would be in the center of the new driveway. She registered an objection to having it moved to her property. Ms. Van Hoose was recognized and advised that there is a considerable amount of landscaping along that side of the property and that more would be added when construction is completed. She further advised that the pole would be moved to the property line . She also pointed out that the existing O Regular Meeting and Public Hearing -Planning Board -Mar. 7, 1990 page -2- driveway pavement encroachs 1 foot and that would be removed. Ms. Van Hoose commented that by constructing a garage, the existing carport would be eliminated. Mr. Klose, a resident within 300 feet of the site expressed no opposition to the variance request. Mrs. Orthwein moved that the granting of the variance as requested be recommended, seconded by Mr. Sheehan, all AYE. 2. Robert Keifer, 3430 Oleander Way, Gulf Stream, Florida 33483 requesting a variance to permit the installation of a swimming pool which will encroach 1431 feet into the required 25 foot front yard setback on the west side and 431 feet into the required 15 foot side yard setback on the south side at the address aforementioned. Mr. James Orthwein, a property owner across the street from the site of the variance request questioned if the pool would be screened and if piles would be need. He went on to say if they were needed, he would request that core piles be used rather than those that were hammer driven. Mr. Keifer answered that he would have a chain link fence erected and that mature ficus would be planted on the outside and mature hibiscus on the inside. He advised that the engineer had stated that piles would not be necessary. Mrs. Orthwein moved and Mr. Sheehan seconded that the granting of the variance as requested be recommended and all voted AYE. 3. James B. Orthwein, 330 Banyan Road, Gulf Stream, Florida 33483 requesting a variance to permit construction of a single family dwelling which will extend 13'h feet into the required 28; foot side yard setback on the west side, said construction to take place on the property located on the north west corner of Polo Drive and Banyan Road. Mr. Brandt, Code Enforcement Officer, advised that after the variance notifications had been published, it became evident that the garage doors would be facing the street and this would require another variance application. He stated that the current request for the setback variance should be considered at this time and the garage doors would be considered at the April Hearing. The Board members asked Mr. Orthwein if the dwelling could be moved forward or repositioned to eliminate the need for variances. Mr. Orthwein presented a site plan with structure super -imposed which indicated this could eliminate some of the request but asthetically it is more pleasing to have it positioned east to west rather than in a slated position. Mr. Stevens, a property owner directly across the street from the site in question, was recognized and pointed out that the garage doors would be directly across from his entrance which would not be pleasing. He understood that this matter would be taken up at a later time but wanted it on the record. Regular Meeting & Public Hearing -Planning Board- March 7, 1990 page -3- Mr. Orthwein stated that the doors would be directly across from Mr. Stevens island and that there would be landscaping installed to soften this. He had his landscape contractor step forward with drawings which were reviewed by Mr. Stevens members of the Board. Mr. Brandt pointed out that the setback on the side adjacent to Banyan did not meet the requiremt of a front setback but the code also states that when a lot is bounded by more than O one street, the setbacks shall not require that the structure be set back farther than others that are existing along such street. Mr. Sheehan moved that the Board recommend that the variance be granted as requested, seconded by Joan Orthwein and all voted AYE. B. Special Exceptions Slate Construction Management, Inc., 1101 South Rogers Circle, Suite 1, Boca Raton, F1. 33487 requesting permission to place a construction trailer on the construction site at 3111 N. Ocean Blvd., owned by William Wooley, which would be located a approximately 4 feet from the north side property line at the address aforementioned. Chairman Lynch asked Mr. Brandt if this request meets the provisions of the code to which Mr. Brandt replied that it did Mrs. Orthwein moved that approval of the special exception request to place the construction trailer be recommended, seconded by Mr. Sheehan and all voted AYE. VI. Site Plan Review A. Amy Van Hoose, Agent for Malcolm R. Butler, 4225 N. County Road, Gulf Stream, F1. -Addition of a garage and second story. Mrs. Orthwein moved and Mr. Sheehan seconded that it be recommended that the site plan be approved as requested. All voted AYE. B. Robert Keifer, 3430 Oleander Way, Gulf Stream, F1. -Location of a swimming pool and addition of an open arbor porch. Mrs. Orthwein moved and Mr. Sheehan seconded that the Planning / Board recommend that the site plan be approved providing the J landscaping that was mentioned in the variance hearing be installed. All voted AYE. C. James B. Orthwein-Construction of a single family dwelling on the north west corner of Polo Drive and Banyan Road. Mrs. Orthwein moved and Mr. Sheehan seconded that a recommend- ation be made for approval of the site plan with the exception of the location of the garage doors which will be considered at a later time. All voted AYE. D. Slate�Construction Management, Inc. 1101 South Rogers Circle Suite 1, Boca Raton, F1. 33487 -Location of a construction trailer at 3111 N. Ocean Blvd., Gulf Stream, F1. 33483 ncyular meeting & Public Hearing -Planning Board -March 7, 1990 page -4- Mrs. Orthwein moved and Mr. Sheehan seconded that the Board recommend that the placement of the trailer be approved and all voted AYE. VII. Sign Request Slate Construction Management, Inc. requesting permission for a construction sign to be placed at the construction site at 3111 N. Ocean Blvd., owned by Mr. William Wooley. Acting Chairman Lynch inquired of Mr. Brandt if the sign met the size requirements. Mr. Brandt sated the sign meets the requirements. Mrs. Orthwein moved and Mrs. Sheehan seconded that permission to install the sign as presented be granted and all voted AYE. VIII. Assignments from the Town Commission Re -review of a variance request presented on February 7, 1990 from Dr. Chardack to permit installation of a satellite dish antenna which would encroach 11.5 feet into the required 22.5 foot side yard setback at 547 Golfview Drive. Mr. Brandt circulated photographs of the area of placement, one of which was a large aerial, showing the screening material that is in place on all sides and a plan showing the location of additional material that will be installed. Acting Chairman Lynch stated that he saw no reason for this request to be denied since it would not be seen from any adjacent property or right -of - way. Mrs. Sheehan agreed and moved that the Planning Board recommend to the Town Commission that the variance be granted. Acting Chairman Lynch passed the gavel to Mrs. Orthwein and then seconded the motion. During discussion, Mrs. Orthwein stated that she continued to be opposed to variances being granted for satellites. A roll call vote was taken as follows: Mr. Sheehan, yea; Mr. Lynch, yea; Mrs. Orthwein, Nay. Mrs. Orthwein returned the gavel to Acting Chairman Lynch. IX. Items by Staff Acting Chairman Lynch called attention to the report of construction in progress that had been distributed. There being no questions, the Chairman moved to the next item. Mr. Brandt explained that there had been a question at the last meeting as to whether the notices were being sent via Certified Mail. In reply to that, the notices are sent by regular mail as that is O the method provided in the code. He went on to state that if they were to go Certified it would cost the applicant an additional $1.75 per letter and the code would need to be changed. It was unanimously agreed to continue as had been done in the past. X. Items by Board Members Mrs. Orthwein reported on the Committee meeting that had been held at 8:00 A.M. for the benefit of the public inasmuch as all members of the Planning Board had participated in the committee meeting. She advised that the Zoning Code Review Committee had recommended that the proposed ordinance to regulate development of lots of less than 20,000 sq. ft. be approved as presented with the following exceptions: Regular Meeting & Public Hearing -Planning Board -March 7, 1990 page -5- The computation for the maximum percentage of permitted lot coverage would include 100% of air conditioned space; 100% the garage and 0% of the covered patios.. The committee did not feel that there should be separate provision: for lots of less than 12,000 sq. feet as there are so few and they could be handled with variances if necessary. The Committee recommended that the code should include a provision to establish a maximum elevation of one foot above mean high tide Ofor all new and rebuilt seawalls to achieve continuity of seawalls. In regard to the proposed ordinance related to landmark preservation, after considerable discussion the Committee recommended that there be no local legislation, that anyone desiring a historical status could request same from a higher entity. Discussion with regard to the establishment of an architectural review board was held. It was recommended that any matters that would need this type of review could be included in the site plan review by the Planning Board. Mrs. Krolik was recognized and stated she felt strongly about having a landmark preservation ordinance and that it should be mandatory, not voluntary. Mrs. Orthwein asked if anyone had any other items that should be reviewed and the Board Members suggested that perhaps something was need to control the placement of site lighting to make certain it was not offensive to adjacent properties. They also noted a problem with extremely large boats parking in canals that would block everyones view of the waterway, sometimes for lengthy periods. XI. Public There was no additional comment from the public. XII. Adjournment Mrs. Orthwein moved and Mr. Sheehan seconded that the meeting be adjourned and all voted AYE.

Adjournment MEETING OF THE ZONING CODE REVIEW COMMITTEE OF THE TOWN OF GULF STREAM, FLORIDA HELD IN THE TOWN HALL ON WEDNESDAY, MARCH 7, 1990 AT 8:00 A.M. I. The meeting was called to order at 8:00 A.M. by Mrs. Joan Orthwein, Chairman. II. Roll Call Present: Joan Orthwein Chairman William Lynch Committee Member Sherwood Sheehan Committee Member John Blomquist Committee Member Absent: William A. Mayer Committee Member (with notice) Charles E. Eaton Committee Member (with notice) Susanna Souder Committee Member III. Committee Discussion & Recommendations A. Proposed ordinance amending regulations for lots of less than 20,000 square feet, establishing a percentage of maximum lot coverage and establishing a percentage of minimum landscaped open space. Chairman Orthwein explained that the current code provisions are directed to lots of 20,000 sq. feet or more resulting in numerous variance requests for the development of lots of less than 20,000 sq. feet. If provisions were to be included in the code for the smaller lots, many of the variance requests would be eliminated,she added. There was considerable discussion on the following provisions; 1. SETBACKS FOR LOTS OF LESS THAN 20,000 SQ. FT. Side setbacks; 15' on each side for 2 story dwellings (to eave) 12;i' on each side for 1 story dwellings (to eave) Mr. Lynch, Mr. Sheehan and Mr. Blomquist favor these. Mrs. Orthwein felt the side setback should be 12h' for both one and two story dwellings. The Committee recommends that the side setbacks be 15' feet on each side for 2 story dwellings and 12k' on each side for 1 story dwellings (to eave) as is provided in the proposed ordinance with all other setbacks to be as provided in the proposed ordinance also. 2. PERCENTAGE OF LOT COVERAGE FOR LOTS OF LESS THAN 20,000 SQ. FT. The committee unanimously agreed that the percentage for a two story dwelling should be 258 maximum and 308 maximum for a one Qstory dwelling as provided in the proposed ordinance, but unanimousl, recommended that the calculation for percentage of lot coverage be 1008 of air conditioned space; 1008 of the garage and 08 of the covered patios. Chairman Orthwein questioned if there was any support for changing the 1008 calculation of the garage to 508 on lots of less than 12,000 sq. ft. It was unanimously agreed that there were so few of this size lots that they could be handled with variances if necessar' Mrs. Orthwein called attention to the fact that current codes do not address the height of sea walls. She felt that a maximum height shoud be established to achieve continuity of seawalls. Meeting of the Zoning Code Review Committee March 7, 1990 page 2 During discussion it was agreed that a maximum height of one foot above mean high tide should be provided. This would be intended for all new or rebuilt sea walls. B. Proposed ordinance related to landmark preservation. Chairman Orthwein explained that in reviewing the proposed document, the Town Commission, along with others, felt it was much too extensive, O that creation of another body to enforce the provisions of the ordinance may not be acceptable, and that the declaration of of properties to be covered should be on a voluntary basis. It was agreed that the recommendation from the Committee would be that no local legislation would be necessary; anyone desiring the status could have their property registered with one of the higher entities. Mrs. Orthwein advised that there was one last item that had been discussed previously by the Town Commission, the creation of an architectural review board. The committee, after discussion, felt that once again the town was too small for the establishment of another body and that any review that was felt necessary could be a part of the review by the Planning Board. IV. Public There was no comment from the public. V. Adjournment Chairman Orthwein adjourned the meeting at 8:55 A.M. ranklin Flannery Town Manager N
