REQUEST: Community Development Department is advising the City Commission of the
status of various current planning projects.
PURPOSE: This agenda item is to update the Commission on the status of current planning
projects.
CONSIDERATION:
(1) SJRWMD(formerly Minter) Site - On February 6, the SJRWMD submitted a comp plan
amendment application to amend the County FLU designation to the City's Public/Semi-Public
FLU designation for this site (28.9 acres). This large scale amendment received a
recommendation for approval at the May 2 LPA meeting and was approved on first reading for
transmittal to the DCA at the May 29 Commission meeting. The second reading of the
ordinance and final adoption was held on September 10, 2007. On November 2, 2007, the
Community Development Department received notice of intent from the state Department of
Community Affairs to find the comp plan amendment (Ord. No. 2007-06) in compliance. The
District has submitted a plan for the Solary Canal project and has inquired of how the City will
process the request under Seminole County zoning. per 11/13/07 agenda
(2) Weaver, Rook, & Montgomery Properties - On August 2, 2006, alarge-scale
comprehensive plan amendment package was received from Samuel Bowman for 31.45 acres
(Donald Weaver & Rook properties), located east of Barrington Estates and west of DeLeon
Street. The applicant proposed to amend the Future Land Use designation from Seminole
County Rura13 to City of Winter Springs Low Density Residential (as many as 3.5 D.U. per
gross acre) as the first step to developing an approximately 70 D.U. single family residential
subdivision (Blackstone Subdivision). The transmittal request was denied and the Commission
directed staff to proceed with aCity-initiated large scale amendment, changing the designation
to Rural Residential during the next cycle. The applicant subsequently withdrew his
application, but reapplied on February 6 for an LDR FLU designation, to achieve 54 units
(Weaver property only; the applicant indicated a willingness to restrict density with a
development agreement - on February 12, the Commission indicated it was not interested in
this proposal). Based on the Commission direction, the FLU amendment to Rural Residential

plans for 331 apartment and condominium units, 43,000 square feet of retail, 354 structured
parking spaces (multi-level parking garage), and surface parking (on-street and parking lots) on
the east side of Tuskawilla Road. An updated prof ection by the development team on August
11 divided their proposed development east of Tuskawilla Road into Phase II A and IIB, with
no vertical construction east of the trail bridge, due to wetland issues. Phase II A plans were
submitted on February 7 for 33,452 square feet of retail and 292 residential units on 7.75 acres.
The plans were reviewed at the March 7 staff review. The build-out for phases II A and IIB
totals 400,000 square feet of retail, 300,000 square feet of office, and 935 residential units,
with 2 and possibly 3 parking structures. A Phase II development agreement (DA) was
approved by the City Commission on October 17, 2005, requiring the buildings in Phase II to
be 6 stories high. The DA has conflicting language on building height. Staff is working to
resolve the conflict and the DA will be amended to include language allowing building heights

2005, meeting. Final engineering/subdivision plans were submitted on November 21, 2005
and were reviewed at the December 6 staff review. Dover Kohl, staff, and the applicant's team
have been trying to best address the concept of live-work units, raised door-yards, and
courtyards at grade (since the applicant has determined that the Brownstone concept is
financially impractical for this site, due to the amount of fill material that would need to be
imported. The final engineering plans were approved at the June 12, 2006 Commission
meeting, subject to staff conditions and a development agreement. The development
agreement is proposed to be presented for approval concurrent with the aesthetic review by the
Commission. Staff has met with the owner as recently as March 7, 2007, to discuss minor
changes to the building architecture and site engineering; another meeting was held with the

Page 15
the City Commission approved two 6-month extensions, extending the site plan. The
development agreement was amended to extend approval to July 28, 2006, for work to
commence. Apre-construction conference was held on July 11, a permit application package
was submitted on July 24 for the wall along the north perimeter of the site, and a 6-month
extension for the site plan and development agreement approved on July 24. Clearing occurred
for the wall along the rear of the site. Obtaining the building permit for the wall and passing an
inspection on March 22, 2007 appears to have kept the site plan and development agreement
from expiring. The applicant decided not to proceed with the building permit application
package. On May 7, the owner provided a new set of architectural renderings and met with
staff on May 9. The applicant has been provided comments on the new architectural
renderings and is considering his alternatives. On September 11, an engineer, who is not the
original design professional (for the proposed building) or a licensed contractor, attempted to
submit an incomplete building plan/permit application package, based on the 2001 Building
Code (needs to be 2004 code). There is a specific form for transfer of a project from one
design professional to another. Staff is trying to reach the owner for an update as to the
project's status. The owner has contacted staff and has requested relief from impact fees for
the proposed addition. Staff has no basis on which to consider such a request. No new plans
have been received since the July 24 submittal. per 01/14/08 agenda.

provision of 5 small office buildings along the north side of Excelsior Parkway. Preliminary
engineering plans were submitted on September 13 and reviewed at the October 3, 2006 staff
review. An aesthetic review package was submitted on October 25 and went to the November
7, 2006 staff review. per O1/08/07agenda
(31) Saratoga Condominiums (a.l~a. Moss Road Town homes) - 84 units. At its April 12,
2004, meeting, the City Commission approved the Metropolis Homes conditional use
application and concept plan to build as many as 84 condominiums and commercial
development on an "L" shaped 9.10 acre site fronting on both SR 434 and Moss Road, adjacent
to the Bank of America and Victorio's Pizza. On September 20, 2004, the City Commission
approved a 6 month extension for the conditional use. Ordinance No. 2004-49 extended the
initial approval of a conditional use from 6 months to 2 years. Preliminary site plans and a
draft development agreement were submitted to the City on April 15 and reviewed at the May
3 staff review. On July 21, the BOA recommended approval for a waiver of the 2 car garage
requirement for condominiums at this site (proposing 1 covered space per unit). The waiver
request was heard on August 22 and was approved at the October 10 Commission meeting.
