Additionally, Mr. Howell noted that to justify this request, the Applicant proposed a sixty foot (60') wide natural buffer adjacent to State Road 434 so the single - family detached homes are not visible from the right -of -way of State Road 434. Further discussion. Board Member Suzanne Walker asked about the entrance point on Tuskawilla Road.

Mr. Morris noted, "Everything we're proposing is compatible with what's adjacent to it. The Zoning will show that in the same way." Referencing a presentation, Mr. Morris showed the Site Plan. Related to the maximum number of allowed single - family units within the development, Mr. Morris indicated, "I think we can go up to 385, I think is the total number — we're asking for something less than that — 3 73." -ur CITY OF WINTER SPRINGS, FLORIDA MINUTES PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD/LOCAL PLANNING AGENCY REGULAR MEETING - OCTOBER 7, 2015 PAGE 5 OF 6 Regarding pricing, Mr. Morris stated, "We're probably starting in the upper three hundreds. Medium price of these is probably come in somewhere mid four - fifties to four - seventy -five range. The price points and the cost of this is going to actually drive those housing prices well above the median housing price of Winter Springs." Additional comments ensued on minimum square footage. Mr. Morris addressed rights -of -way while referencing his presentation and stated, "We'll be doing a new right -of -way map which will look like this which will then uniformly bring the different pods of the neighborhood together. This will be a two (2) phase project because of the number of homes and absorption factor." Referencing the Special Exception, Mr. Morris explained, "We were concerned that this remaining parcel could end up being commercial or something backing to our residential. So, we approached the City to take this parcel, ask for a Special Exception, but then also we're still going to convey the water so there is not retention here. And we're going to convey the water down to the pond. Our second concern was is the view shed because one (1) of our main entrances is further down [State Road] 434. We were concerned about the view shed — would look like." Through collaboration with City Staff, Mr. Morris explained, "We thought it was important to keep the view shed, in other words, the windshield survey. So, we came up with four (4) different design plans for what the frontage would like on that buffer of sixty feet (60) that we're offering." Further discussion continued on the developers of the Assisted Living Facility, the natural buffer, tree surveys, large canopy trees, the pond, and water conveyance along driveways. Chairperson Henderson inquired if the water would be underground. Mr. Morris confirmed and replied, "In this case, we would not want to do an open drainage ditch — we would want to have it conveyed either — I can't tell you until we come to final engineering how it's going to work but I can tell you most likely it's going to be next to or underneath the driveway on the backside of those houses." Brief discussion followed on the Church property and its construction in 1974. Chairperson Henderson closed "Public Input". "MOTION TO APPROVE ITEM `501'." MOTION BY BOARD MEMBER PHILLIPS.
