V. Public Hearing
A. Variance
l.Digby Bridges, Marsh & Associates, Agent for The Little
Club, Inc. 100 Little Club Road, Gulf Stream, Florida
33483 requesting a variance to permit construction of an
addition (to contain a walk-in cooler/freezer) to an
existing non -conforming structure, said addition to extend
15' into the required 25' side yard setback, at the
northwest corner of the building known as The Little Club.
Mr. Digby Bridges, Agent for The Little Club presented the site plan showing
the proposed addition explaining that when the original building had been
constructed, a setback of only 10' had been required as opposed to the 15
foot requirement now existing. He added that the proposed addition will
follow the line of the building and will be of the same material and
design as the existing building. Mr. Bridges advised that the Club
plans to redesign the existing kitchen which is very small. In order
to gain space needed for the renovation, it is necessary to move the
cooler/freezer outside which is the purpose of the proposed room addition,
he said. Mr. Bridges added that the immediate neighbors to the west are
residents in the Las Casitas development and that they have requested
that the existing wall that divides their property from that of the Club
be increased :to 13 feet in a certain area to conceal from view several
existing vent pipes on the roof of the Club. Mr. Bridges stated that
The Little Club is willing to do this as part of the project if the
IN
Regular Meeting- Architectural Review & Plannning Board
January 22, 1992 page 2
Town gives approval. Mr. Bridges closed his presentation by pointing out
that additional landscaping will be provided to screen the addition.
Mr. William Lynch, Vice Chairman questioned if there had been any objections
to the project. The Town Clerk advised there had been a few residents
in the Colonial Club inquiring about the project but after viewing the
site plan seemed satisfied that there would be no impact on their property.
Mr. Henry Cook, President of Las Casitas and Mr. Robert Cochrane, a
resident of Las Casitas both stated that they had no objection to the
proposed addition but are requesting that the height of the wall be increased
as had been explained by Mr. Bridges.
Town Manager Harrington noted that his recommendation for the granting of
the variance included the provision that the area between the addition and
the wall on the west property line remain uncovered and free from any
kitchen equipment. Mr. Bridges stated that was the intent of the Club.
Mr. Lynch moved that it be recommended to the Town Commission that the
variance be granted as requested with the condition that the area between
the addition and the wall on the west property line remain uncovered and
free from any kitchen equipment, and provided that the wall on the
west property line be increased in height as requested by the property
owners on the west side of the wall. The motion was seconded by Mrs.
Souder. Roll Call: Mr. McGraw; AYE, Mrs. Souder; AYE, Mr. Lynch; AYE,
Mrs. LaPorte; AYE, and Chairman Orthwein; AYE.
VI. Site Plan Review
A. Digby Bridges Marsh & Associates, Agent for The Little Club,
Inc., 100 Little Club Road, Gulf Stream, Florida 33483 -
Construction of a one story addition, which will contain a
walk-in cooler/freezer, to an existing structure known as
The Little Club at the address stated herein.
Mr. Bridges explained that the existing parking spaces will remain the
same as there was adequate room for the addition by adjusting landscaped
areas. He pointed out that windows will be included in the addition to
match the existing design as shown on the rendering he displayed. Mr.
Lynch moved that the ARPB recommend to the Town Commission that the
site plan be approved as presented, seconded by Mr. McGraw. Roll Call:
Mr. McGraw; AYE, Mrs. Souder; AYE, Mr. Lynch; AYE, Mrs. LaPorte, AYE, and
Chairman Orthwein; AYE.
O B. Bill Rosenberg, Rosenberg Design Group, Agent for Bruce
McKinney, 3603 N. Ocean Blvd., Gulf Stream, Florida 33483 -
Amended Site Plan to alter the Landscape Plan that was
approved on August 14, 1991, File #91-11.
Mr. Rosenberg displayed a color rendering of the amended site plan for
landscaping the property between the structure and North Ocean Blvd. He
pointed out that the size of the driveway had been greatly reduced and
the size of the concrete squares had been reduced to 2' square in order-
to
rderto provide greater green area,with the strips of grass being between the
squares. Mr. Rosenberg called attention to the fact that the water features
and rock gardens had been removed and additional landscaping added which
will include the creation of a courtyard enclosed with a short white
picket fence to match the picket railing on the edge of the roof above.
Regular Meeting -Architectural Review & Planning Board
January 22, 1992 page -3-
In closing, Mr. Rosenberg displayed the proposed design for the gate to
be placed across the driveway access to AlA. He explained it would be
black wrought iron with the overall design being a grid pattern with a
row of solid panels across the entire width that would be at eye level
of the occupants in cars traveling on AlA. He added that in each of
the solid panels, there would be the design of a tree appearing in
Orelief.
Mrs. LaPorte expressed concern about mixing the black gate with the
proposed white picket fence around the courtyard. Mr. Rosenberg believed
this would not be offensive as the black gate would be soft and is quite
a distance from the planned courtyard with the white fence. Mr. Lynch
moved to recommend to the Town Commission that the amended site plan and
gate design be approved as requested, seconded by Mr. McGraw. Roll Call:
Mr. McGraw; AYE, Mrs. Souder; AYE, Mr. Lynch; AYE, Mrs. LaPorte; AYE, and
Chairman Orthwein; AYE.
1. Landscape Disturbance Permit ("Corridor Permit")
Mr. Lynch moved and Mr. McGraw seconded that approval of
the Landscape Distrubance Permit for 3603 N. Ocean Blvd. be recommended to
the Town Commission. Roll Call: Mr. McGraw; AYE, Mrs. Souder; AYE,.Mr.
Lynch; AYE, Mrs. LaPorte; AYE, and Chairman Orthwein; AYE.
VII. Items by Staff
A. Report of Construction in Progress
The report revealed there to be $7,410,454 worth of construction
underway in December, 1991. There were no questions regarding the report.
VIII. Items by Board Members
Mrs. Souder questioned the appearance of blue ribbons around a number
of the Australian Pine Trees along AlA. Mr. Harrington advised that he
had met with DOT and the Contractor hired by DOT with regard to their
plans to trim some trees and remove dead trees. He stated that he visited
the site with the representatives and explained the town's desire to
preserve the canopy over AlA. He further advised that DOT agreed that
they would only remove dead trees and dead limbs as well as trimming some
of the lower branches that will soon be a hazard to traffic on the highway.
Mr. Harrington stated that while the ribbons were not attached in his
presence, he can only assume that they were placed as a result of his
meeting with the agency representatives.
IX. Public
There was no comment from the public.
X. Adjournment
Chairman Orthwein adjourned the meeting at 9:30 A.M. following a
motion by Mr. McGraw which was seconded by Mr. Lynch,and a unanimous vote.
