Chairman Wilson announced the above dates. Mr. Harrington asked for a
show of hands as to who would be present at the June meeting and only
two members indicated they would. After some discussion, it appeared
that at least three members would be available on June 16. Given the
few number of items scheduled for June, Mr. Harrington felt this would
be workable but said he would call the members within the next two weeks
to confirm.
Mr. Harrington then asked for a show of hands as to who would be present
for the July meeting. After some discussion it appeared that the July
meeting would have to be moved to Friday the lith in order to ensure
three, and possibly four, members. Again, Mr. Harrington stated he
would call to confirm this date. He also noted that the Commission was
scheduled to appoint a new member in June to take Mrs. Souder's place.
There was no discussion regarding the September or October meetings.
VI. Public Hearin-,
A. Applications for Development Approval
Chairman Wilson asked all who intended to speak to stand and take the
oath whereupon Attorney Randolph administered the oath to Mr. Devitt and
Mr. Altman.
1. An application submitted by Bobby Altman of Altman
Architects as agent for Bob Hartnett, owner of the
property located at 570 Banyan Road, Gulf Stream, Florida,
which is legally described as Lots 2, 2A and 3 in Polo
Cove subdivision.
Mr. Wilson asked all Board members to disclose any communications or
site visits they have had regarding this petition. All members
responded that they had had no communications and Mr. O'Neal and Mrs.
Souder noted that they live very near the site and pass by it
frequently.
Mr. Altman began his discussion by praising the Design Manual stating
that he has designed houses throughout the country and that far and way
this was the best document of this type he has ever dealt with. He also
noted that he has had several discussions with Town Manager Harrington
throughout the process and thought the design of the home was improved
by having gone through the process.
Referring to the site plan, Mr. Altman noted that the home is oriented
to Polo Cove, the Intracoastal and an interior courtyard thereby making
the design of all four sides very important. He noted that the home has
one- and two-story elements, and that the second floor in the front
consists of an open porch off of the master bedroom.
Regular Meeting and Public Hearing - May 28, 1997
Architectural Review and Planning Board Page 3
Mr. Altman then reviewed the elevations pointing out the courtyard wall
in the front and the detached "buttery" which will serve as a bathhouse
for the pool area. He also noted, again, the second floor porch in the
front and French doors with a large arched transom along the dining room
in the back. In addition, he pointed out the glassed -in conservatory at
the south end of the home and noted that the proposed hedging in the
front and pergola in the back would screen it from view. The overall
design of the home is Bermuda, he said, and has stucco walls, a white
tile roof with mitered ridges and a 6/12 slope, and casement windows
with muntins and shutters.
Lastly, Mr. Altman presented the landscape plan stating that the
existing, dense perimeter hedging would remain and that the few specimen
palms in the front would be relocated. In addition, he continued,
several new plantings will be added in the back as well as a large hedge
along the south side of the front that will screen the pool and fence.
Overall, the landscaping will have an informal, tropical theme including
the use of water -dependent species in the retention areas.
Mr. Harrington then reviewed his report. He reminded that there is an
existing house that will need to be demolished to make way for the
proposed home. However, the first floor elevation of the existing and
proposed homes are about the same, and thus; little fill will needed.
In regards to the proposed home, Mr. Harrington noted that the gross
floor area of 4,472 square feet was the maximum permitted on this site.
This figure is based on an Effective Lot Area that does not include the
submerged land in the Intracoastal or the small parcel located across
Banyan adjacent to the cove, which are part of the platted lot area of
the site.
Mr. Harrington said that, based on the materials submitted by the
applicant, staff was recommending approval of the Land Clearing Permit
to add fill and relocate and preserve existing vegetation. He concluded
by saying that staff also was recommending approval of a Level 3
Architectural/Site Plan Review for the demolition and the proposed new
home and accessory structures, based on a finding that the plans and
documents submitted by the applicant meet all applicable criteria as
proposed.
Chairman Wilson asked for comments and there were none from the public.
Mr. Lynch and Mr. O'Neal noted that the home would be a big improvement
over the existing home.
a. LAND CLEARING PERMIT -To permit construction of a
single family dwelling, which includes the addition
of fill material.

Mr. Lynch moved, and Mrs. Winston seconded, to recommend approval of
Land Clearing Permit based on a finding that the plans and documents
submitted by the applicant, as proposed, meet all applicable permitting
criteria. Roll Call: Mr. O'Neal; AYE, Mrs. Souder; AYE, Mr. Lynch; AYE,
Mrs. Winston; AYE, Chairman Wilson; AYE.
b. LEVEL 3 ARCHITECTURAL/SITE PLAN REVIEW -To permit the
demolition of the existing structure and the
construction of a two-story single family dwelling
and bathhouse consisting of 4,572 square feet, and a
pool at the location described herein.
Mr. Lynch moved, and Mrs. Souder seconded, to recommend approval of a
Level 3 Architectural/Site Plan Review for the demolition of the
existing home and construction of a new home with accessory structures
based on a finding that the plans and documents submitted by the
applicant, as proposed, are consistent with all applicable review
criteria. Roll Call: Mr. O'Neal; AYE, Mrs. Souder; AYE, Mr. Lynch; AYE,
Mrs. Winston; AYE, Chairman Wilson; AYE.
2. An application submitted by Mark Marsh of Digby Bridges,
Marsh and Associates as agent for Mr. & Mrs. Fred Devitt
III, the owners of the property located at 3288 Gulf
Stream Road, Gulf Stream, Florida, which is legally
described as Lot 28 of the Gulf Stream Properties sub-
division.
Chairman Wilson asked Board members to disclose any discussions they may
have had regarding the project or any site visits. All members
responded that they had engaged in neither but that all were very
familiar with Mr. Devitt's home. Attorney Randolph then administered
the oath to Mr. Marsh.
Mark Marsh presented an elevation of the proposed south wing addition
and two photographs of the existing south wing, noting that the addition
is only 361 square feet larger. He stated that removing the existing
south wing entirely and rebuilding it was the only feasible way to meet
the owner's objectives for a larger master suite. However, he
continued, the design of the new wing matches the design of the existing
home through the use of clapboard siding, wood shingle roof, double -hung
windows with muntins and operable wood shutters. He also
.� p pointed out
that several of the existing windows on other parts of the home would be
replaced and enlarged to let more light into the home. He concluded by
stating that only existing foundation plantings would be disturbed and
that these would be replaced at the conclusion of the construction.
Mr. Harrington reviewed his report noting that the addition complied
with all setback requirements and that the proposed gross floor area was
well within the maximum permitted Floor Area Ratio. He said that, based
on the materials submitted by the applicant, staff recommended approval
Regular Meeting and Public Hearing - May 28, 1997
Architectural Review and Planning Board Page 5
of a Level 2 Architectural/Site Plan Review as proposed. He reminded
that as a Level 2 Review, the Board would be taking final action.
Chairman Wilson asked for comments and Mr. Lynch and other Board members
stated they felt it was a very well designed addition. There were no
C comments from the public.
a. LEVEL 2 ARCHITECTURAL/SITE PLAN REVIEW -To permit the
demolition and replacement of the south bedroom wing
of the existing dwelling, adding an additional 361
square feet, and the replacement and enlargement of
some existing windows on other portions of the home
at the location stated herein.
Mr. Lynch moved, and Mrs. Winston seconded, to approve a Level 2
Architectural/Site Plan Review for the demolition and replacement of the
south bedroom wing and window replacements, as requested, based on a
finding that the plans and documents submitted by the applicant comply
with all applicable review standards. Roll Call: Mr. O'Neal; AYE, Mrs.
Souder; AYE, Mr. Lynch; AYE, Mrs. Winston; AYE, Chairman Wilson; AYE.
3. An application submitted by Mark Marsh of Digby Bridges,
Marsh and Associates, as agent for Mr. & Mrs. John McGraw,
owners of the property located at 1665 N. Ocean Blvd.,
Gulf Stream, Florida, which is legally described in metes
and bounds in Section 10, Township 46 South, Range 43 East
Chairman Wilson asked if any Board members had had any discussions about
the proposed project or had visited the site. All Board members
responded that they had had neither.
Mr. Marsh presented a site plan and called attention to the fact that
the site was adjacent to the McGraw's current residence to the south but
that this lot was separately titled and not a part of that property. In
fact, he continued, the subject lot had a home that was torn down about
a year ago.
Mr. Marsh noted that the McGraw's wanted a modest residence for this
property and that the living area of the home was only about 5,000
square feet, but based on the way the Town measures area, the gross
. floor area was over 9,300 square feet. This larger area resulted from
the extensive breezeways that are used to connect the garage, guest
quarters and pool area to the main house, he said. He continued his
presentation of the site plan by noting that the house meets or exceeds
all setback requirements and that the few areas of seagrapes that are
within the proposed building pad will be relocated to the perimeter of
the site. He pointed out that the driveway for the new home will be in
the same location as the driveway of the previous home and that the
existing seagrape canopy over the driveway would be preserved and
enhanced.
Regular Meeting and Public Hearing - May 28, 1997
Architectural Review and Planning Board Page 6
Referring to the Town staff report, Mr. Marsh addressed the following
conditions of approval: 1) He noted that the driveway gate on AIA was
incorrectly drawn and that it would not exceed eight feet; 2) He passed
out a sheet of pictures of the McGraw's other home and noted the
driveway of the proposed home will be composed of pea gravel with a cast
stone curb in a manner similar to the existing home; 3) He pointed to
the survey and stated that the existing gazebo was east of the existing
Coastal Construction Control Line and that it would be relocated west of
the Line; 4) He also pointed to the existing shed on the survey and
stated that it would be clad in board and batten or lattice as the Town
did not permit the existing metal siding. He also said the shed would
be relocated to comply with the 15 -foot minimum south side setback
requirement.
Mr. Marsh then showed a perspective of both the front and rear of the
home and called attention to the stucco walls, barrel tile roof,
casement windows with muntins and French doors. According to Mr. Marsh,
the design of the home is a "true" Spanish -Mediterranean style, similar
to the McGraw's existing home. He then proceeded to pass around color
samples for the both the walls and windows. Lastly, he requested to
change the breezeway columns from cast stone to 8" by 8" wooden
supports. According to Mr. Marsh, this change would help to further
differentiate this house from the McGraw's other house while still being
compatible with the architecture of the house. There were no objections
to this change.
Upon receiving the oath from Attorney Randolph, Dick Reifschneider
addressed the Board stating that he was there to represent Mr. Carl
DeSantis, the neighbor to the north. Mr. Reifschneider said that he was
the Realtor who had sold the home to Mr. DeSantis. He said that at the
time Mr. DeSantis bought his home, they were told the subject lot would
remain vacant and that Mr. DeSantis had made a deal with Mr. McGraw to
buy half of the lot but that Mr. McGraw had backed out of the deal. He
praised the proposed home's setbacks on the east and north but was
concerned that the north -facing windows in the second floor master suite
J would look directly into Mr. DeSantis' bedroom which was located on the
south side of his home.
Mr. Marsh responded by stating that the setback of the area in question
exceeded the minimum setbacks by seven feet and that he believed the
windows were much further east than Mr. DeSantis' windows. He did say,
however, that he would be happy to look into the issue further to see if
additional mitigation were necessary. He noted that the McGraws are
very private people and they too would be concerned about the
relationship between the windows in the two houses.
Regular Meeting and Public Hearing - May 28, 1997
Architectural Review and Planning Board Page 7
Mr. Harrington reviewed his report stating that Mr. Marsh was correct
that the gross floor area of the house is significantly inflated by the
use of the breezeways. Nevertheless, the home is still more than 1,000
square feet under the maximum permitted Floor Area Ratio.
CIn regard to the Land Clearing Permit, Mr. Harrington said that the
seagrape disturbed by the driveway and garage would be relocated but
that vegetative removals and relocations were minimized by the fact that
the home is mostly located within the footprint of the previous home.
He said some fill will be needed as the new home is about a foot higher
than the previous home. The applicant initially proposed a higher home
but, at his urging, had agreed to lower it to about the same height as
the McGraw's existing home. Based on the materials submitted by the
applicant, Mr. Harrington said that staff was recommending approval of a
Land Clearing Permit with the condition that all remaining and relocated
vegetation be adequately protected during construction.
Mr. Harrington next pointed out that a North Ocean Boulevard Landscape
Disturbance Permit was needed and that the gate shown on the plan
exceeded eight feet in height which is the maximum. Thus, with the
condition that the gate be lowered to eight feet or less, as already
agreed to by Mr. Marsh, staff recommended approval of the Landscape
Disturbance Permit, based on the material submitted by the applicant.
Mr. Harrington noted that very little landscaping within the North Ocean
Boulevard Overlay District will be added or removed as the driveway
follows the path of the old driveway.
Lastly, Mr. Harrington said that staff was recommending approval of the
Level 3 Architectural/Site Plan Review with the conditions referred to
earlier by Mr. Marsh along with an additional condition that the owner
dedicate the western 30 feet of the property to the Florida Department
of Transportation as right-of-way for State Road AlA. Mr. Harrington
explained that the property had never been platted and that a survey of
the property indicated the western property line was the centerline of
the road. DOT, he said, can legally lay claim to the pavement, but the
ownership of the additional right-of-way may be in question. He said
the dedication doesn't really affect the value of the property as the
Town's code doesn't allow the area to be used when calculating the FAR
and that he doubted the County Property Appraiser included the area in
the land valuation. Mr. Lynch asked Mr. Marsh if his client was
agreeable to the dedication and Mr. Marsh responded that they were as
that this is a standard condition in such instances.
Regular Meeting and Public Hearing - May 28, 1997
Architectural Review and Planning Board Page 8
Mr. Lynch and Mrs. Winston asked for further clarification regarding the
location of the proposed bedroom windows relative to Mr. DeSantis'
house. Mr. Marsh said that he believes the proposed windows are much
further east of Mr. DeSantis' windows and there would be no direct views
from one house to the other. He noted again that the proposed windows
C are more than 22 feet from Mr. DeSantis' property line, but that he will
investigate this matter further to ensure nobody's privacy is invaded.
There were no additional comments from the Board or public.
a. LAND CLEARING PERMIT -To permit construction of a
dwelling, which includes the addition of fill material
Mr. Lynch moved, and Mr. O'Neal seconded, to recommend approval of a

b. NORTH OCEAN BOULEVARD LANDSCAPE DISTURBANCE PERMIT -To
permit alteration of the vegetation and driveway
entrance within the 50' Historic Corridor adjacent to

Mr. Lynch moved, and Mr. O'Neal seconded, to recommend approval of a
North Ocean Boulevard Landscape Disturbance Permit upon a finding that

AYE, Mrs. Winston; AYE, Chairman Wilson; AYE.

Regular Meeting and Public Hearing - May 28, 1997

4. An application submitted by Mark Pulte of Mark Timothy,
Inc., as agent for Ocean Breezes, LTD, owner of the
property located at 3120 Gulf Stream Road, Gulf Stream,
Florida, which is legally described as Lot 21 of the Gulf
Stream Properties subdivision.
Attorney Randolph administered the oath to Mr. Pulte. Chairman Wilson
C' asked Board members to disclose any ex -parte communications or site
visits and all members responded they had none to disclose.
Mark Pulte presented colored elevations of the proposed home and noted
that the lot has an existing home that will be torn down. The proposed
home has smooth, pale yellow stucco walls and a white tile roof. In
all, the home has about 3,600 square feet under air and a total area of
about 4,400 square feet, he said.
Turning to the proposed landscaping, Mr. Pulte said that all perimeter
hedging will be preserved except in two areas where it will be replaced
with a new ficus hedge and fence. He went on to say that the lot had
little other existing significant vegetation except for some palms in
the front that will be relocated.
Mr. Pulte said that in working through the design, he debated on whether
to have a one- or two-story home. In the end, he decided to have a two-
story with dormers in order to obtain the necessary floor area but still
stay in scale with surrounding homes. As a result, he continued, the
floor plan was compromised a bit by having two small bedrooms upstairs,
but overall, he was very happy with the design.
Regarding the specifics of the exterior design, Mr. Pulte noted that the
staff report suggested lowering the living room eave to 12 feet. He
said he originally proposed it at a little over 14 feet, but based on
input from Mr. Harrington, he lowered it to 13'-4". Because he wants a
14 -foot ceiling in the living room with lots of light, this was as low
as he could get the eave. If it were any lower, the arched transom over
the center window would have to be removed, he said. He also pointed
out that the staff report suggested removing the roof railing. He said
he likes the rail but would be willing to discuss it further with the
Board.
In reviewing the staff report, Mr. Harrington noted that the applicant
had made changes to the original proposal based on his comments. These
included changing the roof over the front entry from copper to white
cement tile, simplifying the second floor dormer, and lowering the
living room save height as described by Mr. Pulte.
Regular Meeting and Public Hearing - May 28, 1997
Architectural Review and Planning Board Page 10
Referring to his report, Mr. Harrington said that the floor elevation of
the proposed home is the same as the existing home; and therefore,
little fill will be needed. In fact, Mr. Harrington continued, the back
yard will be lowered a bit in order to achieve a pool deck elevation
that is lower than the floor elevation. Mr. Harrington then reiterated
what Mr. Pulte had said regarding the removal and retention of existing
landscape features. Based on the materials submitted by the applicant,
Mr. Harrington said the staff was recommending approval of a Land
Clearing Permit with the condition that all plant material to be saved
or relocated be adequately protected during construction.
Mr. Harrington then turned his attention to the proposed home itself
noting that the demolition of the existing house requires a Level 3
Architectural/Site Plan Review as does the new house. In regards to the
existing house, Mr. Harrington said that it was not identified in the
1990 Historic Site Survey of the Town as having any historic potential.
As for the proposed house, Mr. Harrington said that it was four square
feet under the maximum permitted. Based on the materials submitted by
the applicant, staff recommended approval of a Level 3 Architectural/
Site Plan Review without any conditions. However, staff suggested the
Board and the applicant consider lowering the living room eaves to 12
feet and removing the roof railing.
Mr. Lynch said he thought the design of the home was good. Mr. O'Neal
questioned if the wall dormer over the garage served a function to which
Mr. Pulte responded that it served to vent the attic but was not a
window. He stated further that the dormer would be screened with
bougainvillea that would be planted in the window box in front of the
dormer and that irrigation and drainage would be provided.
Mrs. Winston asked if Mr. Pulte intended to keep the roof railing in
light of Mr. Harrington's comments. He replied that he liked it but was
willing to discuss the matter further with the Board if necessary. Mrs.
Winston asked if the rail served a purpose to which he responded no as
there is no access to the roof. Mrs. Souder said she would prefer the
Jhome without the railing.
Scott Tiernan, Realtor for the project, asked to speak and was sworn in
by Attorney Randolph. Mr. Tiernan said he lives in the area and felt
the home, as proposed, would be a big improvement over what's there.
Mr. Pulte noted that he already has a contract on the house and Mr.
Tiernan said that any changes would have to be approved by the
prospective buyer.
There being no further comments from the Board, applicant or public,
Chairman Wilson asked for a motion.
