Ocean Blvd., Gulf Stream, Florida, which is legally described in metes and bounds in Government Lot 2, Section 3, Township 46 South, Range 43 East in the Town of Gulf Stream, F1. for the following: Mr. Carter displayed color renderings and a site plan of the proposed improvements and explained that they are adding a tunnel under the previously approved water slide feature and relocating of a portion of the brick paver path to run through the tunnel. Mr. Carter explained that all the structures in the 15' setback have been removed and he is proposing to bring up the up to grade 48" below top of the existing the wall, which meets the pool barrier code. He added that there have been significant modifications to the previously approved landscape plan. Mr. Talley stated that there was a mistake on the measurement of the existing wall; the NGVD measurement should be 26.5 feet. Chairman Wheeler asked if the clay roof tiles with the intermitting white tiles were approved. Town Manager Thrasher stated that he administratively approved the roof tiles. It was stained that they appear more prominent in the aerial photos than when actually reviewed. Town Manager Thrasher advised that when a measurement is taken on the neighbor's property, the distance from the grade to the top of the wall is 10.51. He was concerned that someone could easily get on top of the wall from the north side and in the event they fell, they would fall 10.5 on the south side. Mr. Talley stated that the building safety code regulates the maximum safety height for a guardrail on high buildings is 43" and he does not believe he should have to address the Town's concerns. Mrs. Neeves asked if the waterfall would be flowing all the time and where the pumps would be located. Mr. Carter said the waterfall would be on a timer. Mr. Talley stated that the minor accessory units would be located in an enclosed area. Mr. O'Neal asked if there were any objections from the neighbors. Town Clerk Taylor stated that all the neighbors were appropriately noticed O and there were no comments. Mr. Talley said there were no objections from the neighbors. Chairman Wheeler stated that the proposed wall height would exceed the building safety code but he had no objections on the height of the wall. The Chairman requested that Mr. Carter submit a final landscape plan to the ARPB for approval. Attorney Randolph suggested that as a condition of approval, a deed restriction be placed on the existing wall height and any other wall that may be placed in this area to never exceed the present NGVD 26.5 feet.
