Ocean Blvd., Gulf Stream, F1. Mr. Mark Vigneault of Rex Nichols, Architect &Associates, Agents for Mr. McKinney,explained that Mr. McKinney found the existing dwelling unacceptable to accomodate his family and extensive renovations were not feasible. In view of this, Mr. McKinney would like to demolish the existing dwelling and construct a new two story home. Mrs.Orthwein asked what the style of the proposed dwelling would be called as it did not seem apparent from the elevations that were provided for review. Mr. Vigneault stated that the home had originally been intended to be Japanese however during design, the family had felt it would be better, and more in keeping with the flavor of the Town, to alter the design to a more Mediterranean look. He added that they wanted to keep the window design as is shown on the drawings. When questioned as to the type and color of roof, Mr. Vigneault stated the roof would be barrel tile, an orange or rust color. He further stated the structure would be a muted color. All members of the Board were agreed that the materia] that was submitted was not adequate for them to consider the merits of design. Mr. Vigneault advised that Mr. McKinney was in the process of having a model made which would be available a little later. Mrs. Orthwein moved that it be recommended to the Town Commission that Mr. McKinney be granted approval to demolish the existing dwelling. The motion was seconded by Mr. Sheehan and all voted AYE. Mrs. Orthwein then moved that the Architectural Review and Planning Board recommend to the Town Commission that consideration of the proposed development at 3603 N. Ocean Blvd., Gulf STream, Florida be deferred until such time as a model has been provided. The motion was seconded by Mr. Lynch and all voted AYE. Regular Meeting of the Architectural Review and Planning Board -February 6, 1991 page -2- V. Site Plan Review Continued B. William Woolley, 130 S.E. 1st St., Boca Raton, F1. 33431 - Site Plan Amendment to cut additional trees for access to North Ocean Blvd. (required by DOT) at 3111 N. Ocean Blvd., Gulf Stream, Florida. ^ Mr. Woolley advised that in his original site plan review he had asked ( ) to cut all of the pine trees along AlA. At that time he had been refused by the Town and given permission to cut only the two at his driveway entrance. During the summer, he said that he made application to DOT for his driveway connection and had received a permit but with the provision that all of the trees be cut. He further advised that he has been negotiating with DOT since that time and they have finally agreed to issue a permit if he first signs a vegetation permit to remove 6 of the existing trees. He explained that this is the reason for requesting review of a site plan amendment. During discussion it was pointed out that Mr. Woolley has a unique situation in that there is a curve in AlA in that area which places the trees in the line of vision when entering from the driveway. Mr. Woolley pointed out that in the DOT permit reference is made to the compliance with the Department of Transportation's Roadway and Traffic Design Standards, one of which is that a sight distance of 200' shall be maintained in each direction. He went on to advise that he would be unable to get the Certificate of Occupancy for his dwelling until such time as the driveway connection to AIA was in place. Mrs. Orthwein moved that it be recommended to the Town Commission that the amended site plan be approved as requested. The motion was seconded by Mr. Lynch and all voted AYE. VI. Items by Staff A.
