REQUEST: The Community Development Department requests the Commission consider the aesthetic review for a 24,000 S.F. two story (three buildings) office development and related improvements on a 1.6 acre site located on the south side of SR 434, immediately west of the entrance to the Heritage Park townhome development. PURPOSE: The purpose of this Agenda Item is for the Commission to consider the aesthetic review fora 24,000 SF office development consisting of three buildings (8,000 SF each) and associated site improvements on a 1.6 acre site along the south side of SR 434. The applicant has completed the staff review process for combined aesthetic review and final engineering/site plan review and requests that the Commission consider the aesthetic review package. The final engineering for this project in the subject of a separate, regular agenda item on tonight's meeting. APPLICABLE REGULATIONS: Chapter 163, Florida Statutes Chapter 166, Florida Statutes Comprehensive Plan Chapter 9, City Code Town Center District Code Development Agreement -March 11, 2002, Springs Land Investments, Ltd.; Jessup Shores, Ltd. and Centex Home First Modification to the Binding Development Agreement -December 4, 2002 CONSIDERATIONS: Overview The 1.6 acre property is currently vacant with a mature tree canopy. It abuts S.R. 434 on the north side and the Heritage Park development entrance on the east and south sides. The Heritage Park townhomes are located to the west. December 8, 2008 Public Heazing Agenda Item 500 Page 2 of 4 The plan is to construct three new office buildings and attendant parking, accessways, walls, and a dumpster enclosure. Each building will be two stories in height with a building footprint of 4,000 square feet (total of 8,000 square feet of area in each building). The parking is located to the rear of the buildings on the southern portion of the site and the buildings have been located in close proximity to the S.R. 434 right-of--way generally in keeping with the requirements of the Town Center Code as specified in the attached Exhibit D. The applicant has worked with the Heritage Park Homeowners Association to negotiate a mutually acceptable wall design and buffering package for the project's western property line. In addition, the two entities have agreed on a relocation of the entrance drive into the subject property. These elements are reflected in the final engineering plans. The project layout has taken into account the location of several large oak trees. It is unknown at this pint how many of these trees can actually be saved, but there are accommodations in the engineering plans to provide room for these trees to stay. One large (52") oak tree may be too close to the buildings and parking to be saved, but the applicant has agreed to try to save it. Town Center Issues Although this parcel is not physically in the Town Center District, the original development agreement Springs Land Investments, Ltd.; Jessup Shores, Ltd., and Centex Homes required the Commercial area to be developed "generally in keeping with neo-traditional architecture and other design standards reflected in the Town Center District Code." Staff is pleased with the applicant's efforts to comply with the Town Center Code as stipulated in the original development agreement Inconsistencies with Code All Code inconsistencies must be identified and addressed through special exceptions or in a development agreement. At the time this item is written, no development agreement proposal has been received. The applicant should not assume that any deviation depicted on the plans but that is not adequately addressed in a development agreement has been approved by default. There can be no deviations from comprehensive plan requirements. Code deviations include the following: 1. The wall along the western property line of the subject site has been eliminated between the Heritage Park Townhomes and Building #3 (westernmost building) in an effort to save existing trees. Landscape buffering and a decorative fence is proposed in this area. This solution is the result of negotiations between the Heritage Park Homeowners Association and the applicant. Staff supports this deviation. 2. The aluminum material railings used on the proposed fence is of two different types. One type looks similar to wrought iron as allowed in Section 20-327 (b) (2) of the City's Code of Ordinances. The second type is not similar to wrought iron but looks more like a typical aluminum fence. Staff has no objection to the use of these fence materials. 2 December 8, 2008 Public Hearing Agenda Item 500 Page 3 of 4 Aesthetic Review The submittal requirements for aesthetic review are set forth in Section 9-605 and include the following: (a) a site plan; (b) elevations illustrating all sides of structures facing public streets or spaces; (c) illustrations of all walls, fences, and other accessory structures and the indication of height and their associated materials; (d) elevation of proposed exterior permanent signs or other constructed elements other than habitable space, if any; (e) illustrations of materials, texture, and colors to be used on all buildings, accessory structures, exterior signs; and (f) other architectural and engineering data as may be required.

The proposed buildings are to be constructed of concrete block covered primarily with stucco. The building's varied roofline and prominent expression line and water table are positive features. The buildings also contain many additional fagade embellishments that make them an asset to the SR 434 frontage and the adjacent Town House development. (2) The plans for the proposed project are in harmony with any future development which has been formally approved by the City within the surrounding area. No other more recent site plans have been submitted in this immediate area. The proposed project represents a very positive addition to the surrounding area. (3) The plans for the proposed project are not excessively similar or dissimilar to any other building, structure or sign which is either fully constructed, permitted but not fully constructed, or included on the same permit application, and facing upon the same or intersecting street within five hundred (500) feet of the proposed site, with respect to one or more of the following features of exterior design and appearance: (A)Front or side elevations, (B)Size and arrangement of elevation facing the street, including reverse arrangement, (C)Other significant features of design such as, but not limited to: materials, roof line, hardscape improvements, and height or design elements. The proposed buildings do not appear excessively similar or dissimilar to the other structures in the immediate area. The buildings do represent the addition of neo- traditional architecture to the SR 434 frontage within close proximity to the Town Center. (4) The plans for the proposed project are in harmony with, or significantly enhance, the established character of other buildings, structures or signs in the surrounding area with respect to architectural specifications and design features deemed significant based upon commonly accepted architectural principles of the local community. 3 December 8, 2008 Public Heazing Agenda Item 500 Page 4 of 4 There are no other buildings or structures of the same type in the immediate area. The addition of these buildings will enhance the existing entrance to Heritage Park as well as this segment of SR 434.
