" PURPOSE: The purpose of this agenda item is to request the Commission consider a third reading Of Ordinance 707 adopting the proposed Town Center District boundary and Town Center District Code. The Code will function as the zoning regulation for the new zoning district. APPLICABLE LAW AND PUBLIC POLICY: The provisions of 163.3167(ll)F.S. which states "Each local government is encouraged to articulate a vision of the future physical appearance and qualities of its community as a component of its local comprehensive plan. The vision should be developed through a collaborative planning process with meaningful public participation and shall be adopted by the governing body of the jurisdiction." CDDlFebruary 1,2000/10:16 AM FEBRUARY 14, 2000 PUBLIC HEARING AGENDA ITEM B Page 2 Policy 3c. under Objective A of the traffic Circulation Element of the City's Comprehensive Plan which calls for the creation of a "Town Center" to serve as a primary civic, business and service focus for the City". In 1995, the City Commission approved the preparation ofa S.R. 434 Corridor Vision Plan that would include a "Town Center". CONSIDERATIONS: . The City Commission at its June 9, 1997 meeting adopted Ordinance 661 creating a "Town Center" Overlay Zoning District. (Ordinance 707 would repeal Ordinance 661). . The City Commission at its September 8, 1997 meeting adopted Ordinance 676 instituting the Town Center Overlay Zoning District regulations (Design Guidelines). The Schrimsher land holdings were excluded pending the execution of a development agreement. (Ordinance 707 would repeal Ordinance 676). . On January 12, 1998 the City Commission voted to authorize the City Manager to enter into a contract with Dover, Kohl & Partners to prepare a Town Center Concept and a des~gn code to implement the plan. . Notice was sent to various interest groups and to the property owners within the proposed Town Center District boundary inviting them to attend the various workshops and presentations to the Commission. Notice was published in the Orlando Sentinel notifying the public about the various workshops and presentations to the Commission. . Several public workshops and presentations with the City Commission were held in February and March, 1998. On February 11th, Dover, Kohl and Partners conducted a "Kick Off' presentation at City Hall, followed by two workshops "Preliminary Concepts" on February 17th and "Work in Progress" on February 20th. On March 23rd, Dover, Kohl & Partners presented the final concept plan for the Town Center to the Commission. The Commission approved the concept plan and directed the consultants to proceed with Step IT of the contract, which was to prepare a "prescriptive graphic code". The major property owners and many residents were in attendance at these functions. . City Staff has reviewed several drafts of the prescriptive graphic code known as the "Town Center District Code" and has recommended certain changes. CDDlFebrwuy I, 2000110:22 AM FEBRUARY 14, 2000 PUBLIC HEARING AGENDA ITEM B Page 3 . In October, Dover, Kohl & Partners presented their final draft of the Town Center District Code to City Staff, incorporating City Staff's requested changes. . At its November 4, 1998 meeting, the Planning and Zoning Board recommended the City Commission approve the Town Center District Code with the suggestion that "permitted uses' be defined and the Commission give consideration to the property owners request for additional time. . The City Commission at it's November 9, 1998 meeting, deferred consideration of the first reading of Ordinance 707 adopting the proposed Town Center District boundary and Town Center District Code until the December 14, 1998 meeting. The Commission again tabled consideration of the first reading of Ordinance 707, December 14, 199 8, January 11, 1999, January 25, 1999, February 8,1999 and on February 22, 1999 to allow the consultant and staff to meet with property owners to discuss proposed changes. Workshops to discuss the suggested changes were held January 13, 1999, February 11, 1999 and March 1, 1999. . A first reading of Ordinance 707 was approved on March 8, 1999. The second reading was deferred on August 23, 1999 until September 13, 1999. On September 13, 1999 a second reading was again deferred until October 11, 1999. . The second reading was approved on October 11, 1999 and a third reading scheduled for October 25, 1999. The October 25, 1999 third reading was deferred until November 8, 1999. The November 8, 1999 third reading was deferred until December 13, 1999. The December 13,1999 third reading was deferred until February 14,2000. . On November 8, 1999, the Commission authorized the City Manager to enter into a contract with Dover, Kohl & Partners to update the Town Center. This work effort, which was related to the wetland boundary surrounding Wetland Park, was completed on December 9, 1999. . The proposed Town Center requires a large scale comprehensive plan amendment change to the Future Land Use Map redesignating certain areas "Town Center". The large scale comprehensive plan amendment has been submitted to D.C.A.h CDD/February 1, 2000/10:16 AM FEBRUARY 14, 2000 PUBLIC HEARING AGENDA ITEM B Page 4 FUNDING: The City is paying for various consultant services related to the development and implementation of a Town Center Concept Plan from the Community Development Department budget. LOCAL PLANNING AGENCY RECOMMENDATION: At it's December 2, 1998 meeting, the Planning & Zoning Board adopted the following motion: I (Bill Fernandez) make a motion that we recommend approval of these Town Center District Design Codes to the City Commission, based on the findings that our local government should articulate a vision of the future physical appearance and quality in this community, that we have received meaningful public participation at various meetings, that we do need to have an identified Town Center. I will further indicate or add to that, that just as the Town Center overlay zoning district regulations of September 8, 1997, Ordinance 676, was made inapplicable to the Schrimsher property until such time as a development agreement was developed, that in this particular case that I would recommend that the City Commission make this Town Center District Code inapplicable to the Schrimsher property as well as the gentleman's property in the descriptions here, the Spring Land Investment, Ltd. and Jessup Shores, Ltd. EuroAmerican Investors group represented by Sunbelt Investors Group, Mr. A.C. Leerdam, that it be inapplicable until such time as a developer's agreement is negotiated with those parties, and or the property is purchased by a master developer. I would note for the record, that since we are acting in our capacity as the Local Planning Agency on a broad scale as opposed to one single parcel, that we do not need to make the detailed findings of fact that are required when we are dealing with a very small parcel of property. Although I have included in my motion general findings of fact, including the presentation of all those who have come forward and spoken this evening including Mr. Schrimsher and Mr. Leerdam as well as Mr. Michael Grindstaff, that's my motion. Seconded by Roseanne Karr. Vote all aye.

In February, 1998 the City of Winter Springs created a plan for the town center through a design session involving the community and a team of design professionals. This Code is based on that plan. Traditional urban design conventions have been applied to create a pallette of squares, parks, and street types that form the framework for the town center. These conventions are derived from a number of sources in planning literature. Where approvals, interpretations and judgements are left to the discretion of City officials, these officials shall use the following texts for guidance as to best practices: Civic Art, by Hegemann and Peets; Great Streets, by AllanB. Jacobs; The New Urbanism: Toward an Architecture of Community, by Peter Katz; AlA Graphic Standards. 9th Edition: The Lexicon of the New Urbanism. by Duany et ai, Congress for the New Urbanism; Shared Parking, by Barton-Aschman Associates, The Urban Land Institute This document repeals the Town Center Overlay Zoning District Regulations ofJune 9, 1997 (Ordinance #661) and September 8, 1997 (Ordinance #676). Should any conflict arise between the provisions of this Code and other local land development regulations for the City of Winter Springs, the provisions of this Code shall apply. To the extent that this code is silent where other codes govern, they shall apply. A. How To Use This Code: 1. Detennine whether your use is pennitted in the Town Center. 2. Review the General Provisions which apply throughout the district. 3. Detennine which Street Type your lot fronts. (If you have a corner lot, you must detennine the primary space or street based on the hierarchy on page 10.) 4. Next, review section VI. for provisions about the Street Type, Square, or Park that corresponds to the lot. 5. Finally, review the Building Elements and Architectural Guidelines which contain specific rules for buildings. Town Center District Code Fl.nruary 3. 2tKlO Page 1 II. Administration . - f . Interpretation of the standards in this code shall be the responsibility of the City's Development Review Committee (DRC). The "In Our Generation" Illustrative Buildout Drawing on p.IO in this Code and on p.6 in the adopted masterplan shall serve as guidance to the Development Review Committee with regard to the City's intent for land development in the town center. The images contained in this code are meant to demonstrate the character intended for the Town Center, but are for illustrative purposes only. The accompanying text and numbers are rules that govern pennitted development. B. Review Process Applications are subject to review by the Development Review Committee.

T In lieu of landscape strips, landscape islands can be provided. No more than 6 consecutive parking stalls are permitted without a landscape island of at least 6 feet in width and extending the entire length ofthe parking stall. A minimum of one tree shall be planted in each landscape island. It.'.' sail , m x. , , . K. Single vs. Double Loaded Roads: Segments of single loaded Edge Drive are designated for portions of the masterplan in order to provide public access to significant natural areas and to enhance these significant natural areas by facing them with the fronts of buildings. Single loaded Edge Drive may, by special exception, be replaced with a double loaded alternative. Double loaded roads may be appropriate in locations such as: where there is no significant natural view, in circumstances where no significant negative visual impact will be created by having the developed properties back up to the natural area or park space, or in other locations where it is deemed to be in the balanced public- private interest to incorporate double loaded roads for the economical use of the property. L. Large Footprint Buildings: Large Footprint Building has blank facades and sits behind a field of parking. M. Additional Prohibitions: . Buildings with a footprint greater than 20,000 square feet may be built within the Town Center District by special exception only.
