Applications for Development Approval. A. Everett H. Jenner as Agent for Joyce Harvey, 12 Driftwood Landing, Gulf Stream, Florida. 1. SITE PLAN REVIEW -To permit construction of a one story addition, increase the height of existing screen enclosure and install a circular driveway and perimeter fence at the address stated herein that is described with metes and bounds, Section 9, Township 46 South, Range 43 East. Mr. Everett Jenner explained the proposed project and displayed photographs of the properties in the vicinity of the Harvey property. He pointed out they are asking for a color change and displayed a color rendering of what is proposed, a very soft shade of peach. Mr. Harvey stated the proposed addition will contain a new master suite with two studies and a covered porch,and it is also proposed to redesign the existing kitchen/dining area. Town Manager Harrington's staff report stated that the total new floor area, which includes a covered patio, encompasses about 1,143 square feet for a total new floor area of 4,900 square feet and a 23.6% floor area ratio. Architectural Review and Planning Board Regular Meeting -November 30, 1994 page 2 Mr. Jenner next addressed the request to extend the existing one story screen enclosure to the ezve of the second story. He advised that debris from the second story roof falls into the gutter where the existing one story screen meets the wall of the two story portion of the structure. He further advised that it is impossible to clean this out without removing the screen roof. By extending the screen to the second story, the debris would fall all the way to the outside edge of the screen where it could be easily cleaned up. He added that a small, 3' high, triangle of the screen would be seen from Pelican Lane and there is an existing hedge of near 8 feet in height at the property line that screens this out when looking from street level. Mr. Jenner advised that Mr. Harrington had suggested that he investigate the possibility of having hinged screen panels installed in the existing screen roof to provide access to this difficult maintenance area. Iie reported that this has since been investigat- ed and is possible but the applicant would prefer to extend the screen to the second floor eave. Mrs. Souder stated that she has a problem with extending the height of the screen enclosure. Mr. Lynch stated that he does not care for screen enclosures at all and feels that the proposed change would not be any more unattractive than what is existing. Mr. Hopkins asked for clarification on the proposed fence design. Mr. Jenner advised that this would be a 5' high aluminum picket fence with a decorative scroll along the top with concrete columns every twenty feet. He explained that the existing hedge will be moved to the outside of the fence with additional plantings added in an attractive design so that most of the fence will be screened with a few open areas or breaks in the screening. He presented a revised landscape design to detail this. Mr. McGraw noted that glass brick was planned for one corner of the bathroom. He asked if some'other material could be used as glass brick is a feature that is shown as discouraged in the Design Manual. Mr. Jenner stated that glass could be used but that the glass brick gave a nice sparkle to the room and it is on a corner of the structure that is not visible from any street. Mr. Lynch moved that that site plan Epproval be remmnend as requested; provided the existing hedge remains. At this point Attorney Randolph suggested that as an assurance that the hedge remains, the motion include that a recordable document that runs with the land be prepared to provide that landscape screening always be maintained in this area at the existing minimum height. Mr. Lynch amended his motion to include the suggestion made by Attorney Randolph, adding that in the absence of the screening landscape materials, the portion of the screen room above one story in height must be removed. Mr. McGraw seconded the motion. Roll Call: Mr. McGraw; AYE, Mrs. Souder; AYE, Mr. Lynch; AYE, Mr. Hopkins; AYE, and Chairman Orthwein; AYE. B. Donald Lang as Agent for Edward & Leslie Zimmer, 810 Canary Walk, Gulf Stream, Florida. 1. SITE PLAN REVIEW -To permit construction of two additions and fully renovate the interior and exterior of the existing dwelling located at 3110 N. Ocean Blvd., Gulf Stream, Florida that is described as a portion of Lots 36 and 37, Gulf Stream Properties Subdivision. Architectural Review and Planning Board Regular Meeting -November 30, 1994 page 3 Mr. Lang explained that two additions to the existing dwelling are proposed with the addition in the back to includea breakfast room, laundry room, expanded kitchen and covered patio. He further explained that the front addition will include a covered front entry, den, entry foyer and staircase with the foyer and staircase extending up to the existing second floor. These improvements would result in a Floor Area Ratio of 15.9%, he said. Mr. Lang went on to explain that proposed renovations will include a complete replacement of the existing roof and a wholly new floor plan. He then displayed a color rendering showing the walls of the dwelling to be pale yellow with white trim, corner quoins, french doors, arched transoms, multi -paned windows, stucco walls and sloped roof. Town Manager Harrington called attention to the staff remarks regarding the inadequacy of the drainage design. He explained that he did not feel a revised drainage plan is necessary at this time but one should be provided at the time a building permit application is made. All members of the Board complimented Mr. Lang on the design that is proposed. Mr. Lynch moved that approval of the site plan be recommended with the provision that a revised drainage plan acceptable to the Town be provided at the time a building permit application is presented. The motion was seconded by Mrs. Souder. Roll Call: Mr. McGraw; AYE, Mrs. Souder; AYE, Mr. Lynch; AYE, Mr. Hopkins; AYE, and Chairman Orthwein; AYE. 2. AlA VEGETATIVE DISTURBANCE PERMIT -To permit construction of entry columns and landscaping improvements along State Road AlA at 3110 N. Ocean Blvd. Gulf Stream, Florida. The Landscape Architect advised that there will be landscape improvements throughout the property and that they are trying to salvage the existing pond, which is in question at this time. He explained the landscape design that was a part of the agenda packet, pointing out that it is proposed to construct entry columns at both existing driveway entrances to North Ocean Blvd. and to install a ficus hedge along the east property line. In addition, a number of the existing plantings will be trimmed and/or replaced. Chairman Orthwein reminded that the driveway entry columns must be in keeping with the historic design of the AlA corridor, with no gates, walls or fence. Mr. Lang assured that this improvement would conform. Mr. Lynch moved and Mr. McGraw seconded that the AlA Vegetative Distrubance Permit be recommended for approval. Roll Call: Mr. McGraw; AYE, Mrs. Souder; AYE, Mr. Lynch; AYE, Mr. Hopkins; AYE, and Chairman Orthwein; AYE. C. Michael Steffens as Agent for Robert & Caron Dockerty, 3000 N. O Ocean Blvd., Gulf Stream, Florida. 1. SITE PLAN REVIEW -To permit construction of two new structures, convert garage to living area, construct a small addition to existing dwelling, and expand existing patio at the address stated herein that is described as Part of Lots 40 and 41 of Gulf Stream Properties Subdivision. Mr. Steffens explained that the proposed western most structure would serve as a one-story, three -car garage and storage area comprising 792 square feet, with the garage doors facing south and with extensive landscaping for the west and south sides to screen from the neighboring property and Gulf Stream Road. He explained the building will have a hip roof but the east wall abruptly severs the building in an attempt to add a focal point to westward views from the main house and pool area. He added that a fountain and patio area are planned.in this area. Architectural Review and Planning Board Regular Meeting -November 30, 1994 page 4 The staff comments pointed out that the building would be set back 30 ft. from the west property line and is based on the average setback of out- buildings located along the east side of Gulf Stream Road. Mention was also made in the staff comments that the proposed driveway is to be located 3 ft. from the south property line and is to be composed of loose chataho- Oochie over asphalt; that driveway gates are proposed but no gate design was included; and that the driveway does not extend easterly much beyond the proposed garage so as not to conflict with the residence to the south, especially with the south side of the driveway being extensively landscaped. Mr. Steffens then explained that the other proposed structure is located further to the east, closer to the main house, and it will contain a one - car garage, maid's quarters, cabana and bath, and comprises a total floor area of 1,071 square feet on a single floor. With regard to revisions to the main residence, Mr. Steffens explained the existing garage in the main residence is proposed to be converted to an expanded kitchen area and a breakfast area will be extended out the back of the structure adding 122 sq. ft. of new area. Together with the two proposed outbuildings, a total of 1,985 sq. ft. will be added to the property for a total new square footage of 6,442 and a Floor Area Ratio of 18.68. He added that the existing patio/pool deck will be extended to the south to within three feet of the south property line, with the remain- ing three feet to be landscaped and a 6' high wall added for greater privacy. Mr. Steffens then presented a scale model of the property and proposed improvements with the western most garage shown with a west gable roof rather than the hip roof as was shown on the plan. Mr. Hopkins stated he was not crazy about so many garages. Mr. Lynch preferred the gable end on the 3 car garage. Mr. Harrington believed the hip roof design on the 3 car garage would be the better since all other buildings on the property have a hip roof design. Mr. McGraw moved that it be recommended to the Town Commission that the site plan be approved as presented with the 3 car garage to have the hip roof on the.west:end. The motion was seconded by Mr. Lynch. Roll Call: Mr. McGraw; AYE, Mrs. Souder; AYE, Mr. Lynch; AYE, Mr. Hopkins; AYE, and Chairman Orthwein; AYE, VII. Items by Staff. A. Construction in Progress Reports 1. September, 1994 2. October, 1994 These reports were made a part of the official record. VIII. Items by Board Members. Chairman Orthwein questioned if the Board wanted to discuss the Design Manual. Town Manager Harrington advised the Manual would be on the December Agenda for Board consideration and briefly reviewed items that were yet to be included in the Manual, advising that the Task Force would be reviewing them at their final meeting which will be held early in December It was noted that in the Joint Meeting where the Manual was presented, an objection was raised to the provision in the Ocean West District that walls along AlA were restricted to 4' in height. The pros and cons of this were discussed by the Board. The question was raised as to how much noise, if any, would be buffered by a higher wall. Attorney Randolph advised that Architectural Review and Planning Board Regular Meeting -November 30, 1994 page 5 noise studies on this are available and he would obtain those results prior to further consideration. At this point, the members of the Board expressed the desire to maintain the existing "open" appearance on the west side of AlA. Chairman Orthwein and Town Manager Harrington advised they would report this to the Task Force. IX. Public. There was no comment from the public. X. Adjournment. Chairman Orthwein adjourned the meeting at 10:35 A.M. on a motion to do so made by Mr. Lynch which was seconded by Mr. Hopkins with all voting in the affirmative.
