A pre-construction meeting was held on March 15, 2005, for the 2 acre portion of the approximately 15 acre site. Revised final engineering plans for this 2 acres were approved at the April 25, 2005 City Commission meeting. A third iteration of the final engineering plan was approved at the September 26, 2005 Commission meeting. April 9, 2007 Information Item 100 Page 5 Building elevations for Building 3 (2 story & 15,620 SF) were approved at the May 9,2005, City Commission meeting. A discrepancy (between the approved engineering plans and the architectural plans) has been discovered between the finished floor elevation and adjacent sidewalk along Tree Swallow Drive. The approved plans depict a stem retaining wall at the building with a 12 foot wide sidewalk paved from the building to the curb. Staffhas reached an acceptable design to address the elevation issue and keep the original sidewalk in place. An aesthetic review of the proposed BeefO'Brady's hanging sign was approved at the March 12 Commission. The tenant build-out floor-plans for BeefO'Brady's and the hair stylist have been submitted and are under review for consistency with applicable life-safety codes. Building 4 (combination 7,800 SF first floor retail and restaurant with second and third floor residential condominiums with a fourth floor penthouse suite - 15 residential units) was approved for aesthetic review on September 12, 2005, although the Commission voted to have the applicant come back to show a combination of 2, 4, and 6 foot deep balconies. The approved distance between buildings 3 and 4 was amended from 20' I" to approximately 16' at the September 11 Commission meeting. Revised building plans were submitted on September 20 and October 12. Meeting Florida Building Code requirements for fourth floor roof access, within the parameters of the approved aesthetic review, appears to be the primary hurdle at this point. The applicant has satisfied all outstanding conditions for the issuance of a building permit. The plans, as permitted, provide this access. The applicant is in the process of addressing the aesthetic changes to the building. These changes will not affect the building construction until the building is at the fourth floor level. The building plans will be brought back to the Commission if additional aesthetic review is necessary because of the stairway access to the roof. The contractor has encountered compaction issues at the Building 4 site and has removed the existing soil- moving approximately 4000 cubic yards to the Phase IIA site. The soil has been replaced with acceptable fill material that will support the proposed building. Building elevations for Building 16 (11,095 SF) were approved with conditions at the June 13, 2005, City Commission meeting; revisions with a trellis at the west end and other minor modifications were approved on September 12,2005. Vertical construction continues. A major restaurant is considering locating in the east end of the building (closest to Tuskawilla Road). On July 10, 2006, the Commission approved a minor modification to the west end of Building 16, to remove one door and move another door at the west end of the building (adjacent to the circle). The applicant has requested a Certificate of Completion for the shell. Staff has compiled a list of inconsistencies between the approved aesthetic review and the building as it was constructed. Floor-plans (tenant build-outs) for the health-food store and pet grooming shop have been submitted for review. Window signage for the proposed dance studio was approved at the February 26,2007 Commission meeting. Building mounted multi- tenant signage has been approved for both Your Health Food Store and D'Tails. The Commission approved a concept elevation of Building 17 (a 26 unit residential condominium) at the September 12, 2005, meeting, noting that a number of site issues (e.g. parking, access, and the space adjacent to the traffic circle) were to be resolved with the site plan. An aesthetic review package for a pergola (along with a dumpster enclosure for Building 16), located on the Building 17 site, adjacent to the circle, has been submitted. The concept site plan and a development agreement were approved at the October 10, 2005, meeting. A third modification of the applicable development agreement was received without a fee on April 9, 2007 Information Item 100 Page 6 March 2. Both the re-plat and modification were addressed at the March 7 staff review. The re-plat was approved at the April 10 Commission meeting and has been recorded. A revised Building 17 site plan and aesthetic review were approved at the August 28 Commission, subject to conditions. A ground-breaking ceremony was held on-site on September 28 and the site work has proceeded to the point that the underground utilities are in place and the parking lot has been paved. The incomplete building plans that were submitted on October 12 had aesthetic modifications to the roof-line, first floor elevation along Cliff Rose Drive (labeled Big Cypress), and the relief at the rear entrance to the building. At a special November 1 meeting the Commission approved the lower first floor elevation along Cliff Rose Drive. The issues of maintaining the approved roofline and providing access to and from the fourth story roof as well as HV AC placement are being studied. Staff has met with the applicant/owner and the architect to resolve numerous building plan issues. Staff has reviewed 3 formal submittals (numerous informal submittals). per 04/23/07 agenda (12) Blumberg Boulevard & Veterans Memorial- At the January 8, 2007, meeting, the Commission authorized awarding the contract for the Blumberg Boulevard Median and Trail Improvement Project to Southeast Enviroscape, Inc.

The fountain construction has begun - the underground utilities for the fountain are complete. Underground utilities installation for the rest of the Blumberg Boulevard project is to begin on the week of April 16. Veterans Memorial construction is awaiting precast shop drawings. Upon receipt of these drawings and permits, construction is estimated to take 6 weeks. per 04/23/07 agenda (13) Town Center Phase II The Doran team met with staff on June 2,2005, to outline their 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 projection by the development team on August 11 divided their proposed development east of Tuskawilla Road into Phase II A and lIB, 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 lIB totals 400,000 square feet of retail, 300,000 square feet of office, and 700 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 up to 6 stories. The site plan and aesthetic review package were reviewed at a special April 11 staff review. A site development permit agreement to clear the Phase II A site was approved at the April 24 Commission meeting. A first round of aesthetic review comments has been submitted to the applicant.
