Section 2. Amendment to Chapter 20, Zoning. The City of Winter Springs Code, Chapter 20, Zoning, is hereby amended as follows: (underlined type indicates additions and City of Winter Springs Ordinance 2014-34 Page 1 of 31 strikeout type indicates deletions. It is intended that the text in Chapter 20 denoted by the asterisks shall remain unchanged from the language existing prior to adoption of this ordinance): ARTICLE VI. S.R. 434 CORRIDOR VISION PLAN DIVISION 1. S.R. 434 CORRIDOR OVERLAY DISTRICT Sec. 20-461. Intent. The purpose and intent of this specialized overlay zoning district is to encourage and provide for enhanced property development within the S.R. 434 commercial corridor. Some of the objectives to be attained through the establishment of this district include: enhancement of the commercial status of the corridor; reduction of visual distraction through uniform sign criteria; enhancement of physical appearance through increased landscaping of public and private property; provision of architectural design guidelines to create a unifying theme over time; protection of adjacent residential land uses; and maintenance protection of property values. Sec. 20-462. Creation. In addition to, and supplemental to, other zoning and land development regulation requirements heretofore and hereafter, the S.R. 434 Corridor Overlay District includes additional regulations to promote the orderly development and redevelopment of the corridor, which shall be applied through imposition and mapping of an overlay district. The regulations are in addition to and not in substitution of the underlying zoning district regulations which shall also remain applicable to the overlay zone. The overlay district design standards will govern development within the corridor and will control where conflicts between regulations occur. DIVISION 2. GENERAL DESIGN STANDARDS FOR NEW DEVELOPMENT AREA Sec. 20-463. Applicability to new development overlay zoning district. The following design standards shall apply to the New Development Overlay Zoning District which includes all properties adjacent to the S.R. 434 right-of-way from Hayes Road eastward to the easternmost boundary of the City of Winter Springs with exclusion(s) indicated in Ordinance No. 675. The following design standards shall apply to the State Road 434 Overlay District which includes all properties lying within the corporate limits of the City of Winter Springs adjacent to the S.R. 434 right-of-way (inclusive of the entire parcel adjacent thereto) from U.S. 17/92 to the easternmost boundary of the City of Winter Springs with the exception of properties within the Town Center District, and Greeneway Interchange District (GID), which are subject to other regulations set forth in the City Code. Sec. 20-464. Building height. City of Winter Springs Ordinance 2014-34 Page 2 of 31 No building shall exceed fifty five (55) feet five (5) stories in height. For the purpose of these design standards, building height shall be measured from ground level to the highest point of the coping of a flat roof or the mean height level between eaves and ridge for gable, hip or gambrel roofs. Cupolas, spires, domes, pinnacles, chimneys, penthouses and similar architectural features may be erected to a height greater than any limit prescribed in this Code provided, each feature does not exceed 600 square feet in area and does not extend more than 30-feet above the designated height limit. Building height is measured as the vertical distance from the lowest point on the tallest side of the structure to the top of the cornice, eave or similar architectural feature. Sec. 20-465. Setbacks. (a) It is the intent of the City to create a sense of place along the S.R. 434 Overlay corridor. It has been determined that a zero-foot (0') setback allows flexibility in site and building design, and eliminates suburban sprawl. Buildings that are constructed to the property line are encouraged. No improvement shall be located on any property closer to any property line than the minimum setbacks set forth below: Improvements shall be subject to the following minimum and maximum setback requirements from all property lines: Buildings Parking S.R. 434 50 feet Minimum 0-feet, Maximum 100-feet 15 feet Collector Street 35 feet Minimum 0-feet, Maximum 50-feet 15 feet Internal Street 15 feet Minimum 0-feet, Maximum 25-feet 15 feet Side 10 feet Minimum 0-feet, Maximum 10-feet 5 feet Rear 10 feet Minimum 0-feet, Maximum 10-feet 5 feet (b) The narrowest dimension of a lot adjoining a road right-of-way shall determine its front for the purpose of establishing yard requirements. (c) On corner lots, the front yard shall be considered as abutting the street upon which the lot has its least dimension. The rear lot, in this case, shall be opposite the front yard. City of Winter Springs Ordinance 2014-34 Page 3 of 31 (db) The following structures improvements are specifically excluded from the setback restrictions: (1) Steps and walks: (2) Landscaping and landscape berms; (3) Planters three (3) feet in height or less; or (4) Other improvements such as balconies, stoops, and awnings as may be permitted under applicable regulations of the city. The planning and zoning board will consider any request for the placement of such other improvements within a setback, only after a design review board review and recommendation. In determining whether to recommend city consent, the design review board may consider, without limiting the scope of their review, the following: (i) the extent to which any hardship exists that would justify a variance from the normal setback requirements; (ii) the aesthetics of the proposed improvements and their visibility from common roads and adjacent properties; (iii) the consent or objections of adjacent property owners; and (iv) the nature and use of the proposed improvements. It is the owner's burden and responsibility to provide such information and documentation as may be requested by the design review board in order to justify to the design review board that the intrusion of additional improvements within the normal setbacks is beneficial to the corridor and will not adversely affect adjacent property owners. êØÚ  ëØÊØËÇØÙ Land coverage. No parcel within the S. R. 434 Corridor Overlay District shall have more than seventy-five (75) percent of its area impervious. In determining land coverage, a water body shall not be considered an impervious surface. Sec. 20-467. Off-street parking and driveway requirements. The parking and driveway requirements for the Town Center set forth in Section 20-324(8)(a),(d), and (f) shall apply in the district.

The intent is to create a pedestrian oriented system to connect all properties within the S.R. 434 Overlay Zoning District. Sec. 20-468. Landscaping. Large footprint buildings. Buildings with a footprint greater than twenty thousand (20,000) square feet should be built with the following special limitations: A. Where practical, buildings should have the appearance of being wrapped in a liner of smaller buildings with doors and windows facing the right-of-way or parking area. This will be a primary consideration for staff as aesthetic review for buildings are considered pursuant to Chapter 9, Article XII of this Code. City of Winter Springs Ordinance 2014-34 Page 5 of 31 B. To encourage use by pedestrians and decrease the need for solely auto-oriented patronage, large-footprint buildings must provide a connected system of walkable street frontages to adjacent buildings and outparcels. C. Where possible, loading docks, service areas and trash disposal facilities shall not face rights-of-way or residential areas. Where it is not possible to meet this requirement, adequate buffering/screening shall be provided. The following landscape standards establish the minimum criteria for the development of the roadways, parking areas, and other features to ensure continuity in aesthetic values throughout the corridor. (1) All areas requiring landscaping shall meet or exceed the following general landscape requirements. Such landscaping requirements are required for: a. That part of the site fronting a public or private right-of-way that is within the designated corridor. b. Around and within all off-street parking, loading and other vehicular use areas within each site. c. Along the outside of screening walls and fences. d. Adjacent to buildings on the site to complement the architectural style. (2) All landscaping shall be installed according to accepted commercial planting procedures. Fertile soil, free of lime rock, pebbles or other construction debris shall be used in all planting pits. (3) The owner of a site shall be responsible for all landscaping so as to present a neat, healthy and orderly appearance free of refuse and debris. Any dead or dying plant material, including sod, shall be promptly replaced or shall be treated to restore healthy growth to achieve a uniform appearance. (4) All landscaped areas shall be adequately irrigated and reclaimed water shall be used where available, based on the following criteria: a. An automatic sprinkler irrigation system shall be provided for all landscaped areas. b. The irrigation system shall be designed to provide full coverage of all landscaped areas and shall be equipped with rain sensors. City of Winter Springs Ordinance 2014-34 Page 6 of 31 c. The irrigation system shall be designed and operated to prevent or minimize run-off of irrigation water onto roadways, driveways, and adjacent properties not under the control of the owner of the site. d. The irrigation system shall be maintained so as to be in optimum working order at all times. (5) All plant material shall meet or exceed standards for Florida No. 1 plants, as specified in Grades and Standards for Nursery Plants, Parts I and II, 1973 published by the State of Florida, Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services. Trees shall be selected from the Recommended Tree Pallet found at the end of these design standards [this article]. (6) The preservation and utilization of a site's natural trees and shrubbery is strongly encouraged. Existing vegetation shall be incorporated into the landscape concept for a site wherever practical. (7) Natural growth may be used to satisfy specific landscape requirements. Relocation of onsite landscaping material is encouraged. (8) When an access way intersects a right-of-way, landscaping may be used to define the intersection provided, however, that all landscaping within the triangular area described below shall provide unobstructed cross-visibility at a level between two (2) feet and six (6) feet above finished grade. Pedestrian sidewalks shall be provided in the triangular area unless another safe crossing is provided. Landscaping, except grass and ground cover, shall not be located closer than three (3) feet from the edge of any access way pavement. The triangular area shall be defined as: a. The areas of the site on both sides of an access way which lie within a triangle formed by the intersection of each curb of the access way with the street right-of-way with two (2) sides of each triangle being ten (10) feet in length from the point of intersection and the third side being a line connecting the ends of the two (2) other sides. b. The area of the site located at a corner formed by the intersection of two (2) or more streets with two (2) sides of the triangular area being measured thirty (30) feet in length along the right-of-way lines from their point of City of Winter Springs Ordinance 2014-34 Page 7 of 31 intersection; and the third being a line connecting the ends of the other two (2) lines. (9) All landscape plans and specifications shall be prepared by a landscape architect licensed to practice in the State of Florida. (10) For office buildings, office parks and mixed-use developments, not less than twenty-five (25) percent of the overall site shall be planted with a combination of trees, shrubs and ground covers. For commercial sites and commercial sites within mixed-use developments, not less than fifteen (15) percent of the site shall be planted with a combination of trees, shrubs and ground covers. Land preserved in its natural state may be used to satisfy this requirement. Also, lakes and stormwater management systems may be used to satisfy this requirement if designed as an amenity. (11) All parking areas and vehicular use areas shall be screened from the public right-of-way by a landscape screen. This screen may be composed of a berm not less than three (3) feet in height and not more than five (5) feet in height or a maintenance free wall at least three (3) feet in height, or a screen of landscaping at least three (3) feet in height twelve (12) months after planting. If a wall or hedge is used, a meandering berm a minimum of one and one-half (1½) feet in height, with a maximum slope of 3:1 shall be required. Berms shall not be used where coverage conflicts with existing vegetation. This screening requirement may be combined with other requirements within the landscape casement. Berm slopes shall vary in order to provide visual interest; however, the maximum slope shall be 3:1. The berms shall be completely covered with grass or other living landscape materials. A berm shall not be constructed around existing vegetation where the grade will be raised more than six (6) inches. Walls and shrub screens shall be set back a minimum of ten (10) feet from the property line. (12) Concrete walkways shall be a minimum five (5) feet wide and shall are encouraged to meander, where appropriate, to create visual interest. The construction of the walkways shall be coordinated with adjacent properties to ensure continuity of design. Where a sidewalk intersects a street or driveway, a curb ramp shall be installed. (13) Landscaping shall be provided between vehicular use areas and the abutting properties as follows: City of Winter Springs Ordinance 2014-34 Page 8 of 31 a. A hedge or other durable landscape screen at least thirty (30) inches in overall height above grade when planted, to grow to thirty-six (36) inches within twelve (12) months under normal growing conditions, shall be used between the common property lines. When two (2) hedges occur along a common property line, use of the same plant species is required. If a hedge exists on an adjacent property along a common property line, a duplicate hedge is not required; however, in all cases, tree planting requirements for each property shall apply. b. Live screening material shall be planted in areas not less than six (6) feet in width. Planting areas shall be mulched a minimum of two (2) inches thick with cypress mulching or other organic mulch. c. At least one (1) tree shall occur for every seventy-five (75) linear feet, or fraction thereof, along side (non-street side) and rear property lines. These trees shall be any canopy tree selected from the recommended plant pallet found at the end of these design standards. (14) Landscaping shall be provided for all vehicular use areas so as to provide visual and climatic relief from broad expanses of pavement and to channelize and define logical areas for pedestrian and vehicular circulation. The requirements for landscaping in vehicular use areas are as follows: a. Parking areas shall include landscaped curbed islands at the ends of each row of parking. These islands shall be a minimum of ten (10) feet wide and as deep as the combined parking space(s) plus median, if any and shall include at least one (1) canopy tree. b. Each parking bay shall have no more than ten (10) continuous parking spaces unbroken by a landscape island. c. Parking bays shall have a maximum of forty (40) cars. Where total parking requirements for a parcel exceed forty (40) cars, parking lots shall be broken into distinct areas separated by continuous landscaped islands at least five (5) feet wide. Landscaped islands shall contain one (1) small, medium or canopy tree for every thirty (30) linear feet of island. d. Each separate required landscaped island shall contain a minimum of one hundred sixty-two (162) square feet with a minimum interior dimension of nine (9) feet and shall include at least one (1) tree. City of Winter Springs Ordinance 2014-34 Page 9 of 31 e. As an option, a six (6) foot wide landscaped island may be constructed between rows of parking which shall count towards the required open space. If this option is used, the parking spaces abutting the island may be shortened to nineteen (19) feet in length and the unbroken rows of parking may be extended to twenty (20) spaces. The landscaped island shall contain one (1) tree for every thirty (30) linear feet of island. (15) A landscaped unpaved area shall surround each office building, occurring between the facade of the building and paved areas whether a parking area, drive or sidewalk as described below. a. Along the front and side of an office, building a minimum landscaped area of ten (10) feet for the first floor plus three (3) feet for each additional floor shall be maintained. Sidewalks are not considered part of the landscaped area. b. Along the rear of an office building a minimum of five (5) feet of landscaped area shall be maintained. Loading areas may be permitted along the rear or side facade of a building. c. For retail buildings, paving may be allowed up to the facade of a continuous storefront building if landscaping is provided intermittently along the facade of the building consistent with the following: 1. A minimum of fifty (50) percent of the front or side with continuous storefront must be landscaped. 2. Each landscaped area must have a minimum width of three (3) feet. (16) Foundation and accent planting shall be provided around all structures for the purpose of enhancing and complementing the architectural character of the structure. (17) Additional green space and landscaping shall be required at access drives. (18) Drainage retention areas required on individual sites shall be sodded and designed to blend with the overall landscaping and landform of the site and may be included in the twenty-five (25) percent landscaped area. In no case shall designs be permitted which include fencing. City of Winter Springs Ordinance 2014-34 Page 10 of 31 (19) All stormwater management areas shall conform to the design criteria promulgated by the City of Winter Springs and the St. Johns River Water Management District. (20) A tree survey shall be submitted with any application for site plan review showing all trees over four (4) inches in caliper. Existing trees to be removed and retained shall be shown on the site plan. Prior to any site clearing activities all existing trees required to remain by the design review board shall be tagged in the field for inspection and approval. Barriers shall be erected at the dripline of trees for protection against construction activities. (21) Any existing tree(s) indicated to remain on construction plans approved by the design review board that are damaged or removed shall be replaced with new tree(s) consistent with Chapter 5; Section 5.5 of the City of Winter Springs Code of Ordinances. (22) All areas not otherwise landscaped, including the right-of-way, shall be sodded with St. Augustine solid sod by parcel owners. Other suitable sod may be permitted in low visibility areas or areas subject to periodic water inundation. (23) A walkway with a minimum width of five (5) feet, shall be constructed to connect the main public entrance door of a building to the public walkway along rights-of-way. Where the walkway crosses parking or an access drive, the walkway shall be delineated. A landscaped area, which includes sidewalk and landscaping, a minimum of nine (9) feet in total width shall separate the walkway from parking spaces.
