Chairman Ganger asked for declarations of ex -parte communication concerning the applications for public hearing. Mr. Murphy stated that Mr. and Mrs. Landquist are his neighbors and he advised them of the application and approval process. Mr. Lyons stated that he drove by the Architectural Review and Planning Board Regular Meeting and Public Hearing - May 24, 2012 Page 2 property. Clerk Taylor administered the Oath to James Landquist, John Woolley and Marty Minor. A. Applications for Development Approval 1. An application submitted by James F. & Pamela Landquist, owners of the property located at 800 Tangerine Way, Gulf Stream, Florida, which is legally described as Lot 16, Place Au Soleil Subdivision. a. SPECIAL EXCEPTION to permit a 155 sq. ft. garage addition to the existing 396 sq. ft. garage that encroaches 7.8 ft. into the required 20 ft. rear setback. Mr. James Landquist of 800 Tangerine Way introduced himself and presented his application to the ARPB. He said he is proposing the addition to his one -car garage to make it a two -car garage, which will also increase the size of their driveway. Mr. Landquist saidhis house was built in 1962 and they were informed that the addition is too close to the 20' setbacks, and he said because of the angle at the back of the lot they had to design the additional garage to be much shorter than the existing. He said, in doing this, they are planning to redo the landscaping, which landscape plan is included. Mr. Landquist said his rear fence borders the new Hyundai Property where trees have been removed. He said they would like to plant in that area to screen Hyundai's 6' fencing. Mr. Landquist said one side of their home is mostly sand where they would like a grassy area and more plantings, and they will remove some of the pathways. Mr. Murphy asked about the timeline for construction and Mr. Landquist said it will be done over the summer. Mr. Stanley asked how the front of the garage will look from the street. Mr. Landquist said it looks like a standard two -car garage from the front elevation, it will have the same roof line as the existing, they will remove the roof from the existing garage and it will be uniform. Chairman Ganger asked if their existing driveway is pavers. Mr. Landquist said they currently have gray pavers and they will redo the entire driveway with coral -colored pavers. Chairman Ganger asked Clerk Taylor if there were any comments concerning this matter from neighboring residents. Clerk Taylor said Ingrid Kennemer commented that she was in favor. There were no comments from Staff. Mr. Stanley moved and Mr. Lyons seconded to recommend approval for a Special Exception to permit a 155 SF garage addition to the existing 396 SF garage that encroaches 7.8 feet into the required 20 feet required setback. There was no discussion. All voted AYE. b. LEVEL 3 ARCHITECTURAL/SITE PLAN REVIEW to permit a 155 sq. ft. garage addition to the existing Gulf Stream Bermuda Style single family dwelling. Mr. Murphy moved and Mr. Stanley seconded to recommend approval of Level III Architectural/Site Plan based on a finding that the proposed 155 SF garage addition to the existing Gulf Stream Bermuda style single family dwelling meets the minimum intent of the Design Manual and applicable review standards. There was no discussion. All voted AYE. Architectural Review and Planning Board Regular Meeting and Public Hearing - May 24, 2012 Page 3 2. An application submitted by John & Elisabeth Woolley, owners of property located at 935 Orchid Lane, legally described as Lot 88, Place Au Soleil Subdivision, Gulf Stream Florida. a. LEVEL 2 ARCHITECTURAL/SITE PLAN REVIEW to permit the replacement of existing broken, awning type windows in all existing openings visible from the street with triple horizontal sliders. The sliders will have impact glass set in white frames. Mr. Woolley introduced himself and presented his application to the ARPB. He said he would like to replace their 40 -year old, poorly functioning, awning type windows with horizontal, high impact sliders. Mr. Woolley said they chose horizontal sliders to avoid having them open onto the porch. They look almost identical to casement except that they move from side to side. He said Plantation shutters are throughout the house and sliders are easier than casement to open and maneuver. He said they would like to do the window replacement in two phases due to cost and his wife's asthma issue. Mr. Woolley said doing this in a 40 - year old house can create a lot of dust and release materials from the walls and, therefore, they plan to section off the house and do the work in two phases. Mr. Woolley stated that all windows will duplicate the existing with regard to size and number. Mr. Lyons said he viewed the property and commented that the window Mr. Woolley is proposing in the patio area will not look different from the street. With regard to the other windows, he asked Mr. Woolley why he would not use casement. Mr. Woolley said he thought the ARPB would prefer one style throughout to be consistent. Mr. Murphy asked about the discouraged element and Mr. Thrasher said roller -style sliders are clearly discouraged. Mr. Stanley noted that there are no muttins on the proposed windows and Mr. Woolley said if muttins are preferred they would do that. Mr. Thrasher said the total glass has been measured and muttins will not be required by Code, but he said if the existing blinds remain, there will be some busyness in appearance, which may not be relevant. He said, as presented, they meet the Code with regard to opening size, but he added that they could accomplish the look they are going for with another type of window that does not go against the Code. Mr. Stanley asked if any other ranch -style homes in Place Au Soleil have had window replacement with a similar style. Mr. Thrasher indicated that, to date, he has not received any permit applications to replace dated windows. Chairman Ganger said there are certain safety standards for bedroom windows. Mr. Woolley said they are replacing bedroom windows, but he said sliders are not a safety issue and, in fact, are easier to climb through. Mr. Lyons asked Mr. Thrasher for his view of having a slider in the porch area and casement throughout the remainder of the house. Mr. Thrasher said it should be consistent. Chairman Ganger said he does not like to approve discouraged elements, but he said he would be willing to Architectural Review and Planning Board Regular Meeting and Public Hearing - May 24, 2012 Page 4 approve this application because they will look like the existing windows from the street and they will be consistent throughout. Mr. Randolph said this application stands on its own merit and does not necessarily set a precedent in the event another property owner requests the same. Mr. Stanley asked Mr. Woolley if he had a strong objection to replacing all windows at once for reasons other than cost. Mr. Woolley said it is mainly because of his wife's asthma. He said, if the approval depends on replacing all windows at the same time, they may have to spend the summer in Maine. Mr. Thrasher commented that regardless of screening, the fine dust will travel throughout, and he said he would prefer that all replacement is done at the same time. Chairman Ganger asked Clerk Taylor if there have been any comments from neighbors. Clerk Taylor said there have been no comments. There were no further comments from Staff. Mr. Stanley moved and Mr. Murphy seconded to approve Level II Architectural/Site Plan for the replacement of all windows on all elevations to a roller -style window as proposed on the spec sheet, with the following condition: The replacement of all windows on all elevations to roller -style will be done in completion, not in phases. There was no discussion. All voted AYE. Mr. Lyons suggested that Mr. Woolley duty filter and change it frequently which will help keep the air clean. have his contractor install a heavy during the window replacement, Chairman Ganger updated the ARPB Members on the Special Commission Meeting saying that there was a lively discussion with regard to the ARPB recommendations that have been set forth to date. He said the recommendations will go before the Commission in ordinance form for first reading at their June 8th meeting. Chairman Ganger said there were some changes and some additions, such as no clear cutting of lots when coming in with a subdivision. He said, in general, the recommendations were endorsed. Chairman Ganger thanked Mr. Lyons for joining him at the Commission Meeting and he said there were a few residents that also attended. He thanked the Commission and commented that the Commission took the ARPB recommendations very seriously and asked great questions. Chairman Ganger asked if any recommendations made today would go into the ordinance for first reading. Clerk Taylor and Mr. Randolph confirmed that. B. Ordinances. Mr. Minor briefly summarized the Ordinances for a recommendation of approval to the Commission. He said the first ordinance concerns rezoning of the annexed area. The Town Commission has adopted the land use portion of that area as multi -family, which change has been reviewed by the State Land Planning Agency (formerly DCA) and other appropriate State agencies, all of whom have signed off on it. Concurrently, it will be rezoned so that the rezoning has the Town's designation of Residential Medium (RM) to match the land use applied to that area. The first ordinance concerns the rezoning of this property from the County designation of RM to the Town designation of RM. Mr. Minor said the Architectural Review and Planning Board Regular Meeting and Public Hearing - May 24, 2012 Page 5 County allowed 12 units per acre and the Town will allow 5.7 units per acre. Mr. Minor said the second ordinance includes a provision regarding reconstruction of loss in the event of an emergency such as a hurricane or fire, which states they can reconstruct as is, but no larger. It amends the multi -family section of the Zoning Code, listing the projects in RM West and RM East, with an additional provision addressing rehab and additions to existing structures in that area, which states that it must be consistent with Town Code. There is also a reference to the Special Exception process. Chairman Ganger asked about the one commercial property in that area that operates as a time share. He asked if it could be sold for the same use. Mr. Minor said time share is not allowed by Code and, therefore, it is a non -conforming use. Mr. Randolph said these are purely zoning regulations that run with the land and they have the right to sell it for the same use; however, he said if it is abandoned, the property would have to conform. 1. No. 12/2; AN ORDINANCE OF THE TOWN COMMISSION OF THE TOWN OF GULF STREAM, PALM BEACH, COUNTY, FLORIDA AMENDING THE TOWN'S ZONING MAP TO REZONE 12 PARCELS OF REAL PROPERTY COMPRISING APPROXIMATELY 16.6 ACRES, MORE OR LESS, IN SIZE; SUCH REAL PROPERTY IS LOCATED GENERALLY EAST AND WEST OF STATE ROAD AlA, SOUTH OF LITTLE CLUB ROAD AND NORTH OF SEA ROAD; FROM THE PALM BEACH COUNMTY DESIGNATION OF RM -MULTIPLE -FAMILY RESIDENTIAL (MEDIUM DENSITY) TO THE TOWN OF GULF STREAM ZONING DESIGNATION OF "RM" (MULTIPLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL DISTRICT); PROVIDING THAT THE TOWN ZONING DISTRICT MAP BE REVISED ACCORDINGLY; PROVIDING FOR SEVERABILITY; REPEALING ALL ORDINANCES OR PARTS OF ORDINANCES IN CONFLICT HEREOF; PROVIDING FOR CODIFICATION AND PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE DATE. Mr. Stanley read the title of Ordinance No. 12/2. Mr. Stanley moved and Mr. Murphy seconded to recommend approval of Ordinance 12/2 to the Town Commission of the Town of Gulf Stream Town, FL for lst reading at their June 8, 2012 Meeting. There was no discussion. All voted AYE. 2. NO. 12/3; AN ORDINANCE OF THE TOWN COMMISSION OF THE TOWN OF GULF STREAM, PALM BEACH COUNTY, FLORIDA, AMENDING THE TOWN'S CODE OF ORDINANCES, AT SECTION 71-1, TO INCLUDE NEWLY -ANNEXED PROPERTIES UNDER THE RM -EAST AND RM -WEST ZONING DESIGNATIONS; AMENDING, AT SECTION 66-131, THE NON- CONFORMING USE REGULATIONS TO ADDRESS STRUCTURES WITH A NON -CONFORMING DENSITY; ADDING SECTION 71-8, ADDITIONS AND REHABILITATIONS, TO INCLUDE REFERENCE TO STANDARDS FOR ADDITIONS AND REHABILITATION OF MULTI -FAMILY BUILDINGS; PROVIDING FOR SEVERABILITY; PROVIDING FOR REPEAL OF ORDINANCES IN CONFLICT; PROVIDING FOR CODIFICATION; PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE. Mr. Murphy read the title of Ordinance No. 12/3. Mr. Murphy moved and Mr. Stanley seconded to recommend approval of Ordinance 12/3 to the Town Architectural Review and Planning Board Regular Meeting and Public Hearing - May 24, 2012 Page 6 Commission of the Town of Gulf Stream Town, FL for lst reading at their June 8, 2012 Meeting. There was no discussion. All voted AYE. Mr. Lyons asked Mr. Minor why RM West and RM East are divided. Mr. Minor said it was an established breakdown because East of AlA has slightly different regulations than West of AlA which reflect current conditions. Chairman Ganger asked whether there have been any proposals from the Seahorse for construction on the West side of AlA. Mr. Minor said single family structures are encouraged in RM West, the minimum lot size is 20,000 SF and there is room for two single family structures. Mr. Thrasher said Staff has reviewed some conceptual designs, all of which are multi -family. No applications have been submitted for that property. VII. Items by Staff. A. Proposed Zoning Code Changes 1. Section 70-71, Floor Area Ratio (continued from 4-26-12) Mr. Minor said Floor Area Ratio was discussed at the last meeting and the Commission looked at two recommendations. One was the additional FAR incentive and moving the second story back 10 feet and the other was making the maximum second floor area .7 of the first floor area for all districts. At the end of the discussion, the ARPB requested additional mandatory measures to ensure further variations rather than the cookie cutter fagade. He said a new paragraph is proposed under 70-73. Two - Story Structures, where an applicant must incorporate one of four features within the front fagade of any new two-story structure: (1) A second -story setback of 5 feet; (2) a front porch with a minimum of an 8' depth; (3) a balcony of a minimum of 24 SF; or (4) an arcade, each of which would provide a level of visual interest. In addition, a waiver is included which provides that the Town Commission may waive this requirement if the applicant can demonstrate that these features are inconsistent with the homes architectural style and that the visual variation is provided through other measures. Mr. Lyons said the use of the word "front" does not work with corner lots with one very long wall that faces the streets. Mr. Minor suggested "incorporated within the front fagade or facades facing roadways. Mr. Lyons said he prefers that wording. Chairman Ganger asked how he would respond to these suggestions if he was an architect. Mr. Minor said he has had this conversation with several architects and they like the waiver and they like everything spelled out to better understand their parameters and to provide options to the applicant. Mr. Stanley suggested using ". . . facades facing public or private roadways." Mr. Minor clarified that he would be making a change to the second sentence of Section 70-73(b) to read, "One or more of the following features shall be incorporated within facades facing public or private roadways on any two-story single family home in all zoning districts." Mr. Murphy moved and Mr. Lyons seconded to recommend approval of the proposed language, as amended, to the Town Commission. There was no discussion. All voted AYE. Architectural Review and Planning Board Regular Meeting and Public Hearing - May 24, 2012 Page 7 Mr. Lyons noted that the ARPB approved a slate roof on Palm Way and he said at a previous meeting it was suggested to include the Cape Dutch architectural style in the Code. Chairman Ganger said that gray tile is now an approved color. Mr. Randolph clarified saying the Commission decided to leave the strict language of the Code as it relates to white thru and thru, non -coated tiles and gray slate tiles, eliminating slate - like, with a provision to allow the discretion for a modification to that if good cause is shown. Further, he said any modification to that would be subject to the ARPB approval process. Mr. Randolph said this only relates to the predominant architectural style of Gulf Stream Bermuda. Clerk Taylor said Cape Dutch does not fall into the predominant styles, but it can fall into the overall section, which everyone must comply with. Mr. Minor said the Board would like to clean up the section of the Code that addresses metal roofs. He said metal roofs are listed under "prohibited" with a note which states, "Certain metal roofs determined by the Town to be appropriate to the structure and to the neighborhood may be approved only in instances of re -roofing of existing structures based upon an engineer's certification that the existing structure will not support a tile roof." Mr. Randolph said a recent applicant did provide an engineer's certification stating that his structure cannot support a tile roof and when the Commission wanted the Town's engineer to test that certification, the applicant refused to allow that. He said the recommended language, which reads, "This certification shall be reviewed and confirmed by the Town and its engineer prior to approval of the roof material" will provide clarification of the note in this section. Mr. Lyons moved and Mr. Stanley seconded to recommend approval of inserting this language into the note to clarify this section of the Code. There was no discussion. All voted AYE. With regard to slope of driveways, Mr. Thrasher said Mr. Minor had communication with an engineer who indicated that an existing slope of driveway of a newly -constructed single family home in Gulf Stream has a 1 in 10 slope. Mr. Thrasher said he walked this slope and it is reasonable, compared to the driveway slope on the Coon property, which is 1 in 5. He asked Mr. Minor if he was at a point where simple language could be comprised to include, "no slope would exceed the 1 in 10 degree." Mr. Minor said he is waiting to hear from another engineer before providing this language. Mr. Randolph said the Board can approve the concept that they want language incorporated into the ordinance which allows for a reasonable slope approaching garages or driveways, and he said if the Board is comfortable considering this without figuring out the slope it can go directly to the Commission from here. Mr. Stanley moved and Mr. Lyons seconded to approve the recommendation of language addressing the slope of driveways to be further reviewed by Staff and submitted to the Town Commission. There was no discussion. All voted AYE. With regard to Section 70-236, Roofs, Mr. Thrasher asked Mr. Minor if Cape Dutch could be included in the phrase, " . . . predominantly Architectural Review and Planning Board Regular Meeting and Public Hearing - May 24, 2012 Page 8 Georgian or British Colonial with Bermuda influences." Mr. Minor said he is not as familiar with Cape Dutch, but he said he would talk to Mark Marsh to provide an answer. Mr. Randolph said as a result of the Commission Meeting we now have a no clear cutting provision in the subdivision Code. He said the Commission directed Staff for a landscaping provision to address single family lots which would regulate the manner in which people treat their landscaping. They asked for language from many standpoints such as leaving existing landscaping along the lot perimeter during construction, or requiring that new landscaping must stay and an approval process would be required if taken out. Mr. Randolph said there are no language details, but he said this can be handled in the same fashion as slope of driveways. Mr. Thrasher said he would also like to add a description of a Level II Architectural/Site Plan that includes landscaping. He said currently there are not provisions in the Code that address changing out, moving, modifying or adding landscaping. Mr. Randolph said Jupiter Island has a provision that screening is required to protect the neighborhood from viewing construction. Mr. Stanley said Delray handles this matter administratively. He said construction screening cannot be left up indefinitely, the contractor must put in landscaping such as a hedge, and certain trees could be tagged that must remain. Mr. Lyons said Vice -Mayor Orthwein suggested phases where a hedge could be removed to allow entry of equipment, but the hedge must be replaced at the close of construction. Chairman Ganger suggested informing the Commission that the ARPB is addressing the removal of historic trees and hedging during construction, but that additional information and further guidance is required to put this language in ordinance form. Chairman Ganger mentioned painted bulkheads. Mr. Thrasher said this should require a Level I review, which currently addresses structures only, not seawalls. He said this should be addressed. VIII. Items by Board Members. IX. Public. There were no items by the Public. X. Adjournment. Mr. Stanley moved and Mr. Murphy seconded to adjourn the meeting. The meeting was adjourned at 11:00 A.M.

In response to the Review Comments by Urban Design Kilday Studios, dated May 9, 2012, UDKS Project #94- 012.019, I submit for your consideration the following, corresponding with the items noted in the referenced report, together with the attached revised Drawings No. land No. 2 and the added No. 3. Side Setback: Approval of the Special Exception Application to permit the proposed addition to extend the existing 12'5" side setback is requested. Eave Height: Subsequent to the report, a measurement was taken at the Lyons residence of the floor -to -eave height and was found to be 8 feet. The attached drawing has been revised to reflect that dimension. The original dimension of 7'-11" was measured from the scale drawing. Windows: On Drawing No. 1 the glass area has been recalculated. The east window in the Proposed Guest Room has been deleted. Please be advised that the French Doors, both existing and proposed, were included in the original and in the revised calculations. With regard to the use of muntins in the windows, the drawings continue the concept of the existing building in which there are no muntins in any glazed opening. The existing Dining Room is a semi - circular structure with a flat roof and full- height awning windows filling the room's perimeter. The structure has been found to be deteriorating and is scheduled to be removed. In its stead the Owner wishes to maintain the character of the original floor plan with slight modification. This new shape reduces the glass area, retains the alcove design of the original home, eliminates the flat roof, and follows the roof line of the existing hip roof. The concept allows the Owners and guests to retain the panoramic vista of the rear yard and its landscape that they currently enjoy. 140 northeast fourth avenue • suite a • delray beach, florida 33483 a (%1) 27 8-1914 Mr. William Thrasher May 21, 2012 Page 2 I trust that the information provided will clarify your concerns and be acceptable.

Please see our comments below. Project Details • Existing zoning: Gulf Stream Core • Proposed project: 322.6 SF addition to rear of SFH consisting of guest bedroom and dining area Side Setback The proposed addition encroaches the side (minimum 15' required /12' -5" provided). This Special Exception Setbacks, because the side setback and therefore is non - conforming permittable, per Code Section 70- 75(c), setback to the existing home is also non- conforming. The proposed addition is in line with the existing home and will not encroach any further into the side setback than the existing home. As such, the addition represents a logical extension of the existing floor plan. Windows The proposed bay window in the dining area of the addition falls under the "discouraged" category, per Code Section 70- 239(c), because it appears as a prominent feature. Bay windows are expressly "discouraged" by the Town's Design Manual. The applicant's architect has indicated that existing dining room, which features a curvilinear wall, includes full - length awning windows which look out onto the back yard of the home. The 477 S.

The proposed dining room addition uses less glass area than what Roofs Per Code Section 70 -238, unnecessarily complex roof geometry is prohibited. Generally, the Gulf Stream - Bermuda architectural style places an emphasis on simple, straightforward design. The proposed roof over the dining addition is cone - shaped and features five different planes. The applicant's architect has indicated that the existing dining room features a curvilinear wall with a flat roof. The proposed roof for the dining room expansion ties into the existing and proposed roofs. The height and slope of the proposed dining room roof is consistent with the height and slope of the existing and proposed roof of the home. Recommendation The existing curvilinear wall on the home's dining room and its proposed addition creates possible conflicts with the Town's Design Manual as discussed above. However, the curvilinear nature of the dining room and its expansion creates a unique feature for the home that should be considered in this individual case. In its review, the Architectural Review and Planning Board should consider, in accordance with Section 70 -4(c), whether the proposed addition is consistent with the following items: • Neighborhood character; • Architectural style; • Building form and mass; • Materials and colors, and • Location of elements. In reviewing these criteria, the proposed addition is consistent with the neighborhood character as there are several distinctive roof types within close proximity of the subject home. The proposed addition is consistent with the materials, building forms and architectural style of Gulf Stream - Bermuda homes within the Town. The proposed addition is located on the rear of the house and will not be seen from the adjacent street. As a result, we recommend approval of this request.

Lyons 3550 Gulfstream Road Dear Mr. Thrasher: Attached are revised Architectural Drawings to be attached to our submittal of the Application for Development Approval of the residence at 3550 Gulfstream Road, replacing the Architectural Drawings previously submitted. No changes have been made to the landscaping plan nor the drainage plan. In reviewing the drawings after submittal we noticed that there was a slight discrepancy between the Architectural Plan and the Landscape Plan in the outdoor shower .in the northwest corner of the yard and the chain link fence in the hedges along Gulf Stream Road. In the interim the owners elected to enlarge the awning to encompass the west patio which increased the awning by roughly 83.4 sq.ft. The F.A.R changed from .29 to .295. The muntin configuration was altered as indicated, on the French doors on the front elevation at the owner's request. Sincerely, Roy M. on, A.I.A. AR #2595 RMS/blp Enclosure cc: Mr. and Mrs. Peter A.

They have advised that all appliances, cabinetry and plumbing fixtures are to be removed and replaced with new ones.

Attached is a copy of the email from Heidi Lyons granting permission to remove items from her home. This letter is written to advise that we anticipate removing these items on Saturday, July 14 and Saturday, July 21, 2012, to avoid any problems that may arise from this activity.

Roy, it's all his, I glad someone can use them, they all seem in good condition, I've used the washer /dryer, and they work fine. If you think of someone who would like the range and microwave, that would be great. Heidi In a message dated 6/22/2012 11:20:38 A.M. Eastern Daylight Time, rmsimonarchitect @bellsouth.net writes: Hi. Well, next Thursday is the big day. I have a color presentation to prepare and get my arguments together, but I guess we'll make it. During our meeting last week, you were kind enough to grant me permission to bring my "kids" to see if they could use any items that are scheduled for removal or demolition. As I stated, one is buying a house built in the 50's that has minimal up- dating, but is a good house in a good neighborhood, so, much of his wish list will help. The other two are in need of replacing appliances. Following is a "wish list" of items they saw that would help them: 1. Appliances - washing machine, dryer, dish - washer, refrigerator 2. Plumbing fixtures - two lavatories and faucets ( Powder Room and Dressing area of Bedroom 3 ); two white toilets ( Bath 1 and Bath 3); kitchen sink; 3. Metal storm shutter panels - son Mike would like the panels for the sliding glass doors of the house he is purchasing. 4. Cabinets - the tall pantry cabinet and the base /wall cabinet in the Kitchen where we will we plan the banquette; The list is submitted for your review and consideration. The items approved will be removed in coordination with Raimo's schedule. Thank you, Roy Roy M. Simon, A.I.A., Architect 140 N.E. 4th Avenue, Suite A Delray Beach, FL 33483 Fla.
