1. An application submitted by Robert Fetrow of Gator
Engineering as Agent for Pelican Lane, LLC, the owners of
property located at 1302 Pelican Lane, Gulf Stream,
Florida, which is legally described as Part of Lot 24 and
Part of Lot 25, Section 9, Township 465, Range 43E.
Mr. Marsh displayed photographs of the existing house, a site plan,
elevations and explained that this is an older home and the proposed
�) renovation includes a new front entry, a bow window with copper
overhang, bay windows, new windows in the rear, enlarging the great room
and master bedroom, remodeling garage, laundry area and kitchen addition
and replacing the existing spiral stair case with a more functional one.
Mr. Marsh stated that there were modifications made to the house in the
early eighties but there are no plans on record. He explained that the
footprint would not change from what currently exists and that this is a
nonconforming structure that encroaches 6.9' into the required 30' front
setback, 20' into the required rear setback, 1.5' into the required 15'
west side setback and 4.7' into the required 15' east side setback. The
pool would remain intact but the railings would be removed and an
appropriate pool barrier be installed. The roof would be replaced with
flat white concrete tile and center of the roof would be raised to
create a more even flow with the structure. Mr. Marsh stated that there
would be banding around the structure, quoins would be added and a
smooth stucco finish with a lite almond color.
Mr. Marsh asked the Town Manager if the pool enclosure in condition 2
need to be replaced.
Town Manager Thrasher stated that on a survey, it indicated that at one
time there was a pool enclosure, however, if there is not one in place,
the pool enclosure cannot be replaced because of the square footage.
Chairman Wheeler questioned the two shuttered windows on the west
elevation and the two smaller windows on the east elevation.
Mr. Marsh explained that the shuttered openings are fixed and non-
functional, they were used to allow ventilation into the garage and that
they would be replaced with new louvers. He added that the windows on
the east elevation are glass block to allow light in the bathroom and
they would be screened with vegetation.
�l Chairman Wheeler asked if there were any comments.
Mrs. Anderson and Mr. Frankel commented that the proposed improvement is
very nice.
a. SPECIAL EXCEPTION to permit additions to an existing
non -conforming structure that currently encroaches
6.9' into the required 30' front setback, 20' into the
required rear setback, 1.5' into the required 15' west
side setback and 4.7' into the required 15' east side
setback and is constructed on a non -conforming lot of
10,000 sq. ft. in a district that currently requires a
minimum lot size of 20,000 sq. ft.
