Checklist of Up -to -Date Pages
his checklist will be updated with the
printing of each Supplement)
From our experience in publishing Looseleaf Supplements on a page -for -page
substitution basis, it has become evident that through usage and
supplementation many pages can be inserted and removed in error.
The following listing is included in this Code as a ready guide for the user
to determine whether the Code volume properly reflects the latest printing of
each page.
In the first column all page numbers are listed in sequence. The second
column reflects the latest printing of the pages as they should appear in an
up-to-date volume. The letters "OC" indicate the pages have not been reprinted
in the Supplement Service and appear as published for the original Code.
When a page has been reprinted or printed in the Supplement Service, this
column reflects the identification number or Supplement Number printed on
the bottom of the page.
In addition to assisting existing holders of the Code, this list may be used
in compiling an up-to-date copy from the original Code and subsequent
Supplements.

pads) was completed before August 11, 1981.
Expansion to an existing manufactured home
park or subdivision. The preparation of additional
sites by the construction of facilities for servicing
the lots on which the manufactured homes are to
be affixed (including the installation of utilities,

management regulations.
Floodplain management regulations. Any zon-
ing ordinances, land development ordinance, sub-
division regulations, building codes, health regu-
lations, special purpose ordinances (such as a
floodplain management ordinance, grading ordi-
nance and erosion control ordinance), and other
applications of police powers. The term describes
such state or local regulations, in any combina-
tion thereof, which provide standards for the
purpose of flood damage prevention and reduc-
tion.
Floodpr•oofing. Structural changes or adjust-
ments incorporated in the design or construction

the reduction or elimination of flood damages.
Floodauay. See "regulatory floodway"
Floodzvay encroachment line. The line marking
the limits of floodway maps on federal, state and
local floodplain maps.
Floodway fringe. That area of the floodplain on
either side of the "regulatory floodway"
Fraud and victimization. As related to section
8-34, variances, of this chapter, means that the
variance granted must not cause fraud or victim-
ization of the public. In examining this require-
ment, the city will consider the fact that every
newly constructed building adds to government
responsibilities and remains a part of the commu-
nity for fifty (50) to one hundred (100) years.
Buildings that are below the base flood elevation
are subject during all those years to increased
risk of damage from floods, while future owners of
the property and the community as a whole are
subject to all the costs, inconvenience, danger,
and suffering that those increased flood damages
bring. In addition, future owners may purchase
the property, unaware that it is subject to poten-
tial flood damage, and can be insured only at very
high flood insurance rates.
Functionally dependent use. A use of a building
or other development, which cannot be achieved
unless the building or other development is lo-
cated in close proximity to water. The term in-
cludes only docking facilities, portfacilities that

cargo or passengers, and ship building and ship
repair facilities, and does not include long-term
storage or related manufacturing facilities.
Governing body. The City Commission of Win-
ter Springs, which is empowered to adopt and
implement regulations to provide for the public
health, safety and general welfare of its citizenry.
Hardship. As related to section 8-34, variances,
of this chapter means the exceptional hardship
that would result from a failure to grant the
requested variance. The city requires that the
applicant prove that the variance is exceptional,
unusual, and peculiar to the property involved.
Economic or financial hardship alone is not excep-
tional. Inconvenience, aesthetic considerations,
physical handicaps, personal preferences, or the
disapproval of one's neighbors likewise cannot, as
a rule, qualify as an exceptional hardship. All of
these problems can be resolved through other
means without granting a variance, even if the
alternative is more expensive, or requires the
property owner to build elsewhere or put the
parcel to a different use than originally intended.
Highest adjacent grade. The highest natural
elevation of the ground surface, prior to construc-
tion, next to the proposed walls of a structure.
Supp No. 1 496
FLOOD DAMAGE PREVENTION
Historic structure. Any structure that
(1) Listed individually in the National Regis-

ing the requirements for individual list-
ing on the National Register;
(2) Certified or preliminarily determined by
the Secretary of the Interior as contribut-
ing to the historical significance of a reg-
istered historic district or a district pre-
liminarily determined by the Secretary to
qualify as a registered historic district.
Lowest floor: The lowest floor of the lowest
enclosed area (including basement). An unfin-
ished or flood -resistant enclosure, usable solely
for parking of vehicles, building access or storage,
in an area other than a basement area, is not
considered a building's lowest floor, provided that
such enclosure is not built so as to render the
structure in violation of the applicable non -
elevation design requirements of the chapter.
Manufactured home. A structure, transport-
able in one (1) or more sections, which is built on
a permanent chassis and is designed for use with
or without a permanent foundation when con-

prouente��t). The date the building permit was
issued, provided the actual start of construction,
repair, reconstruction, placement, or other im-
provement was within one hundred eighty (180)
days of the permit date. The actual start means
either the first placement of permanent construc-
tion of a structure on a site, such as the pouring of
slab or footings, the installation of piles, the
construction of columns, or any work beyond the
stage of excavation, or the placement of a manu-
factured home on a foundation. Permanent con-
struction does not include land preparation, such
as clearing, grading and filling; nor does it include
the installation of streets and/or walkways; nor
does it include excavation for a basement, foot-
ings, piers, or foundations or the erection of
temporary forms; nor does it include the installa-
tion on the property of accessory buildings, such
as garages or sheds not occupied as dwelling units
or not part of the main structure.
Structure. A walled and roofed building, that is
principally aboveground and affixed to a perma-
nent site, as well as a mobile home on a founda-
tion. The term includes a building while in the
course of construction, alteration or repair but
does not include building rnater-inls, nr SnnnliPa

repair, unless such materials or supplies are
within an enclosed building on the premises. The
words "building" and "structure" shall have the
same meaning fbr the purposes of this chapter.
Substantial damage. Damage of any origin
sustained by a structure whereby the cost of
restoring the structure to its before damaged
condition would equal or exceed fifty (50) percent
of the appraised value of the structure before the
damage occurred.
Substantial irnprove�nent. Any repair, recon-
struction, or improvement of a structure, the cost
of which equals or exceeds fifty (50) percent of the
market appraised value of the structure either
before the improvement or repair is started, or if
the structure has been damaged and is being
restored, before the damage occurred. For the
purpose of this definition "substantial improve-
ment" is considered to occur when the first alter-
ation of any wall, ceiling, floor or other structural
A of the building commences, whether or not
that alteration affects the external dimensions of
the structure. The term does not, however, in-
clude either any project for improvement of a
structure to comply with existing state or local
health, sanitary, or safety code specifications which
are solely necessary to ensure safe living condi-
tions, or any alteration of a structure listed on the
National Register of Historic Places or a state
inventory of historic places.

tives.
The purpose and objectives of this chapter are
to promote the public health, safety, and general
welfare, and to minimize public and private losses
due to flood conditions in specific areas by provi-
sions designed:
(1) To protect human life and health;
(2) To minimize expenditure of public money
for costly flood -control projects;
(3) To minimize the need for rescue and relief
efforts associated with flooding and gen-
erally undertaken at the expense of the
general public;
(4) To minimize prolonged business interrup-
tions;
(5) To minimize damage to public facilities
anA utilities such as water and gas mains;
electric, telephone and sewer lines; streets
and bridges located in areas of special
flood hazard;
Supp No. 1 499
(7) To ensure that potential buyers are noti-
fied that property is in an area of special
flood hazard; and,
(8) To ensure that those who occupy the areas
of special flood hazard assume responsi-
bility for their actions.
(Code 1974, § 194; Ord. No. 2001-04, § 1, 1-22-01)
Sec. 8-3. 1Vlethods of reducing flood losses.
In order to accomplish its purpose and objec-
tives, this chapter includes methods and provi-
sions for:
(1) Restricting or prohibiting uses which are
dangerous to health, safety, and property
due to water or erosion hazards, or which
result in damaging increases in erosion or
in flood heights or velocities;
(2) Requiring that uses vulnerable to floods,
including facilities which serve such uses,
be protected against flood damage at the
time of initial construction;
(3) Controlling the alteration of natural flood -
plains, stream channels, and natural pro-
tective barriers, which help accommodate
or channel floodwaters;
(4) Controlling filling, grading, dredging, and
other development which may increase
flood damage; and,
(5) Preventing or regulating the construction
of flood barriers which will unnaturally
divert floodwaters or which may increase
flood hazards in other areas.

ing considerations. Larger floods can and will
occur on rare occasions. Flood heights may be
increased by manmade or natural causes. This
chapter does not imply that land outside the
areas of special flood hazard or uses permitted
within such areas will be free from flooding or
flood damages. This chapter shall not create lia-
bility on the part of the city, any officer or em-
ployee thereof, the State of Florida, the Federal
Insurance Administration, or the Federal Emer-
gency Management Agency, for any flood damages
that result from reliance on this chapter or any
administrative decision lawfully made hereunder.
In addition, nothing herein shall be deemed as a
waiver of the city's right to sovereign immunity
under state and federal law.

Sec. 8-51. General standards.
In all areas of special flood hazards the follow-
ing standards are required:
(1) Anchoring:
a. All new construction and substan-
tial improvements shall be anchored
to prevent flotation, collapse, or lat-
eral movement of the structure.
b. All manufactured homes shall be
installed using methods and prac-
tices which minimize flood damage.
For the purposes of this require-
ment, manufactured homes must be
elevated above the base flood level
and anchored to the elevated foun-
dation, to resist flotation, collapse or
lateral movement. Methods of an-
choi' lg way include, but are not
limited to, use of over -the -top or frame
ties to ground anchors. This require-
ment is in addition to applicable
state and local anchoring require-
ments for resisting wind forces. Man-
ufactured homes manufactured af-
ter June 15, 1976, with provisions
for installation of anchoring sys-
tems, including instructions, in ac-
cordance with Federal Mobile Home
Construction and Safety Standards,

accordance with the manufacturer's
instructions. Manufactured homes not
provided with such installation in-
structions, or manufactured homes
not provided with instructions for
the hurricane zone, shall comply with
the State of Florida Department of
Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles,
Bureau of Mobile Home Construc-
tion. Any additions to the manufac-
tured home must be similarly an-
chored.
(2) Construction materials and methods:
a. All new construction and substan-
tial improvements shall be con -
strutted with materials and utility
equipment resistant to flood dam-
age.
b. All new construction and substan-
tial improvements shall be con-
structed using methods and prac-
tices that minimize flood damage.
(3) Utilities:
a. All new and replacement water sup-
ply systems shall be designed to min-
imize or eliminate infiltration of flood-
waters into the system.
b. New and replacement sanitary sew-
age systems shall be designed to

Sec. 8-53. Standards for areas of shallow
flooding (AO zones).
Located within the areas of special flood haz-
ard established in section 8-5 are areas desig-
nated as shallow flooding. These areas have spe-
cial flood hazards associated with base flood depths
of one (1) to three (3) feet where a clearly defined
channel does not exist and where the path of
flooding is unpredictable and indeterminate; there-
fore, the following provisions apply:
(1) All new construction and substantial im-
provements of residential structures shall
have the lowest floor, including basement,
elevated to the depth number specified on
the flood insurance rate map, in feet,
above the highest adjacent grade. If no
depAn number is specified, the lowest floor,
including basement, shall be elevated at
least three (3) feet above the highest ad-
jacent grade.
(2) All new construction and substantial im-
provements of nonresidential structures
shall:
a. Have the lowest floor, including base-
ment, elevated to the depth number
specified on the flood insurance rate
map, in feet, above the highest adja-
cent grade (if no depth number is
specified, the lowest floor, including
basement, shall be elevated at least
three (3) feet above the highest ad-
jacent grade) or,
b. Together with attendant utility and
sanitary facilities, be completely
floodproofed to or above that level so
that any space below that level is
watertight with walls substantially
impermeable to the passage of water
and with structural components hav-
ing the capability of resisting hydro-
static and hydrodynamic loads and
effects of buoyancy.

Sec. 8-54. Standards for small streams.
Located within the areas of special flood haz-
ardestablished in section 8-5, where small streams
exist but where no base flood data have been
provided or where no floodways have been pro-
vided, the following provisions apply:
(1) No encroachments, including fill material
or structures shall be located within a
distance of the stream bank equal to five
(5) times the width of the stream at the
top of bank or twenty (20) feet on each
side from top of bank, whichever is greater,
unless certification by a registered profes-
sional engineer is provided demonstrat-
ing that such encroachments shall not
result in any increase in flood levels dur-

ways.
When floodways are designated within areas of
special flood hazard, additional criteria will be
net. Since the floodway is an extremely hazard-
ous area due to the velocity of floodwaters which
carry debris, potential projectiles, and erosion
potential, the following provisions shall apply:
(1) Encroachments are prohibited, including
fill, new construction, substantial improve-
ments and other developments.
(2) The prohibition shall not preclude the city
or other governmental agency from per-
forming maintenance or flood control im-
provements in the floodway to maintain
the viability of the floodway.

flood elevation.
All nonresidential finished floor elevation shall be
elevated to a minimum of eighteen (18) inches
above the base flood elevation unless flood proofed
in accordance with section 8-52(2) of the Flood

(d) Retention/detention ponds.
(1) Dty bottom ponds. All dry bottom retention/
detention ponds will have a pond bottom
elevation of no less than one (1) foot
(twelve (12) inches) above the seasonal
high ground water elevation, which is to
be determined by a registered profes-
sional engineer in the State of Florida
with an expertise in soils. The side slopes
of all dry bottom retention/detention ponds
shall not be steeper than two and one-half
(21/2) horizontal to one (1) vertical. All dry
bottom ponds with no exceptions, in which
the side slopes are steeper than four (4)
horizontal to one (1) vertical shall require
a green vinyl chainlink fence with a min-
imum height of four (4) feet. All fences
must meet setback requirements in sec-
tion 6-193, buildings and building regula-
tions.
(2) Wet bottom ponds. All wet bottom ponds
must have side slopes no steeper than
four (4) horizontal to one (1) vertical mea-
sured from the top of the berm down to at
least three (3) feet below the normal wa-
ter level, measured vertically. This is the
side slope transition point. Side slopes
may then transition, from the transition
point, to no steeper than two (2) horizon-
tal to one (1) vertical down to the pond
bottom. Wet bottom pond side slopes
steeper than these values are not allowed.
If a fence is used, it must be of the same
specifications as the fence for dry bottom
ponds.
(3) All ponds. Retention, detention, percola-
tion, and treatment of stormwater are
required by the city. Stormwater regula-
tions, criteria and requirements of the
State of Florida, St. Johns River Water
§ 9-241.
Management District and the Depart-
ment of Environmental Protection, as they
may exist and be modified from time to
time, are to be the regulations, criteria,
anI requirements which the city shall
utilize for review of stormwater facilities.
All city stormwater requirements shall
also apply in addition to any federal and
state requirement. If there is a conflict
between requirements, the stricter require-
ment will apply. All ponds shall have a
minimum ten (10) foot wide stabilized
maintenance berm capable of supporting
a maintenance vehicle. There shall be a
minimum ten (10) foot wide easement to
each pond dedicated to the city and the
homeowners' association (if planned). All
fenced ponds must have a locked gate
with ten -foot wide gate opening.
(e) Flow quantities off -site are not to exceed
that prior to development. The stormwater runoff
volume and rate from the "design storm", for the
post development condition, shall not exceed that
for the pre -development condition.
(f) The city encourages the preservation of
existing swamp areas, ponds (including intermit-
tent ponds), wetlands and wet areas, and bayheads
for water storage and conservation purposes. Ex-
isting flood storage quantities shall not be re-
duced by development from that which existed
on -site prior to development. Pre and post -
development volume must be adhered to with
additional compensating storage for all floodwa-
ter displaced by development below the elevation
of the hundred -year flood as defined by the Fed-
eral Emergency Management Agency on the lat-
est official panel of the flood insurance rate map.
Compensating storage is to be calculated between
the hundred -year flood elevation and the seasonal
high water table. The seasonal high water table
shall be established by a registered professional
engineer in the State of Florida with expertise in
geotechnical engineering based on recent soil bor-
ings on the subject site. There must be at least
one (1) soil boring per pond, performed at the
proposed location of the pond.
(g) The development of each phase of a devel-
opment shall be capable of standing on its own if
subsequent areas planned for development are
not developed.

(h) Inlet spacing. Inlets shall be spaced in such
a manner as to accept one hundred (100) percent
of runoff. Typically, the maximum allowable gut-
ter run will be seven hundred fifty (750) feet on
streets with curbs, unless specifically excepted by
the city engineer. On streets other than streets
with curbs, the actual required spacing will de-
pend on the characteristics of each particular site.
Calculations will be provided to show the hydrau-
lic grade line (water level) in all inlets and storm
water manholes when the pond reaches its max-
imum stage water elevation during the design
storm. At no time will the hydraulic grade line be
allowed to be higher than the edge -of -pavement
at inlets and at no time be higher than the
manhole rim at storm water manholes. See sub-
section 9-300 for standard curb inlet. Florida
Department of Transportation (FDOT) inlets may
be used at the discretion of the city engineer.
(i) Lot grading. To facilitate proper stormwater

residential lot line slope that can be accepted is
one and one -quarter (1.25) percent. This will only
be allowed in areas that have good percolation of
rainfall into the soils. In areas that do not have
good percolation of rainfall into the soils, the
minimum lot line slope that can be accepted is one
and one-half (1.50) percent.
The determination of good percolation of soils will
be made by the city engineer based on a recent
soils report by a registered professional engineer
in the State of Florida with an expertise in soils.
The soils report may have to include the results of
a recent soil permeability test if required by the
city engineer.

Sec. 9-242. Drainage facilities.
(a) Roadside swales within street rights -of -
way shall have side slopes and back slopes no
steeper than four (4) to one (1). Normal swale
sections shall be a minimum of six (6) inches deep
with a maximum depth of twelve (12) inches
below the outside edge of the street pavement.
Runoff may be accumulated and carried in the
swales in the rights -of -way up to but not above
the point where flooding of the shoulders or
roadside property would occur. Water in excess of
this quantity shall be diverted from the roadside
swales and carried away by storm sewers or other
approved means. Where flow velocities in excess
of two (2) feet per second are anticipated, curb
and gutter shall be provided, unless excepted by
the city engineer.
(b) Open channels and outfall ditches where
allowed shall be designed so as to provide an
eighteen -inch clearance between the design water
surface and bank top and shall be designed for
flow velocities not to exceed two (2) feet per
second. Where higher velocities are anticipated,
other adequate permanent protection against scour
shall be provided. The construction of any artifi-
cial canals, ditches, channels or the construction
of Major storrn sewer systems which will rapidly
convey runoff to any receiving waters or substan-
tially reduce the level of the groundwater table, is
expressly prohibited except on authority of the
rite Pngmi.X1eor.
(c) Street subdrains or underdrains may be
required where soil and water conditions war-
rant. All underdrain trenches shall be back -filled
to the surface with clean, permeable, free drain"
ing sand in accordance with FDOT 902-4.
Underdrains shall have knitted polyester filter
material surrounding the drain. Exposed
underdrain outlets and clean -outs shall be con-
crete with animal guards.
(d) Underground drainage systems shall in-
clude one (1) or more of the following which shall
meet the specifications of the city engineer as to
composition and size:
(1) Reinforced concrete pipe.
(2) Asphalt -coated corrugated metal pipe.
(3) Approved equal materials including alu-
minum.

The regulations and requirements herein set
An have been made in accordance with a com-
prehensive plan, with reasonable consideration,
among other things, to the prevailing land uses,
growth characteristics and the character of the
respective districts and their peculiar suitability
for particular uses and to encourage the most
appropriate use of land throughout the city.
(Ord. No. 44, § 44.01, 1-8-68)
Sec. 20-3. Purpose.
In their interpretation and application, the
provisions of this chapter shall be the minimum
requirements to promote the public health, mor-
als, safety and general welfare; to conserve the
taxable value of land and buildings and to protect

development of such areas. Among other pur-
poses, such provisions are intended to provide
adequate light, air, privacy and convenience of
access to property, to avoid undue concentration
of population by regulating and limiting the height
and bulk of buildings; the size and open spaces
surrounding buildings; to establish building lines;
to divide the city into districts restricting and
regulating therein the construction, reconstruc-
tion, alteration and use of buildings, structures
and land for residence, business, industrial and
other specified uses; to limit congestion in the
public streets by providing off-street parking of
motor vehicles; and to define the powers of the

with the provisions of other laws or ordinances
existing on the effective date of the ordinance
from which this section was derived, except those
specifically repealed or any private restrictions
placed on property by covenant, deed or other
private agreement. Where this chapter imposes a
greater restriction upon the use of buildings or
land or upon the height of buildings or lot cover-
age, or require greater lot areas, larger yards or
other open spaces than are imposed or required
by such existing provisions of law or ordinance or
by such rules, regulations or permits or by such
private restrictions, the provisions of this chapter
shall control.

flict.
In interpreting and applying the provisions of
this chapter, they shall be held to be the minimum
requirements for the promotion of the public
health, safety, morals and general welfare of the
community. It is not intended by this chapter to
interfere with, abrogate or annul any lawful ease-
ments, covenants, or other agreements between

DIVISION 12. TOWN CENTER DISTRICT
CODE
Sec. 20-320. Intent.
(a) The City of Winter Springs seeks to create
a town center based upon traditional standards
for city building. In February, 1998 the City of
Winter Springs created a plan for the town center
through a design session involving the commu-
nity and a team of design professionals. This
division is based on that plan. Traditional urban
design conventions have been applied to create a
palette 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, interpre-
tations and judgements are left to the discretion
of city officials, these officials shall use the follow-
ing texts for guidance as to best practices:
Civic Art, by Hegemann and Peets;
Great Streets, by Allan B. Jacobs;
The New Urbanism: Toward an Architecture of
Community, by Peter Katz;
AIA Graphic Standards, 9th Edition;
The Lexicon of the New Urbanism, by Duany et al,
Congress for the New Urbanism;
Shared Parking, by Barton-Aschman Associates,
The Urban Land Institute
(b) This division repeals the Town Center Over-
lay Zoning District Regulations of June 9, 1991
(Ordinance No. 661) and September 8, 1997 (Or-
dinance No. 676). Should any conflict arise be-
tween the provisions of this division and other
local land development regulations for the City of
Winter Springs, the provisions of this division
shall apply. To the extent that this division is
silent where other codes govern, they shall apply.
(c) How To Use this division:
(1) Determine whether your use is permitted
in the Town Center.
(2) Review the general provisions which ap-
ply throughout the district.
(3) Determine which street type your lot fronts.
(If you have a corner lot, you must deter-
mine the primary space or street based on
the hierarchy in section 20-325.)
(4) Next, review section 20-325 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 spe-
cific rules for buildings.

(3) The city commission may grant the ap-
proval of an application for special excep-
tions from the code in whole or in part
upon a majority vote of its members.
(d) Site development agreement option: The
city may enter into a site development agreement
with the user or devel.ouer of a property, relating
to development of a particular parcel or tract of
land, and such an agreement may address such
issues as impact fee credits; a specialized or
negotiated concept of design or site plan develop-
ment authorized or sanctioned by this division;
infrastructure service credits or public -private
participation in funding, design or construction;
or other incentives based upon strict compliance
with requirements of this ordinance. The agree-
ment will be mutually acceptable to all parties.
Considerations for the city in deciding whether to
participate in such an agreement will include
compliance with the objectives and design criteria
specified in this division; demonstration of a cost
benefit to city and developer; consideration of
development amenities provided by the developer.
Such a site development agreement shall be
adopted and be in conformance with the require-
ments of the Florida Municipal Home Rule Pow-
ers Act or Sections 163.3220 through 163.4243,
Florida Statutes, as to effect, duration, public
hearing requirements and other issues.
(e) Comprehensive plan compliance required:
All development of property subject to the Town
Center zoning designation and these regulations
shall be subject to the Comprehensive Plan of the
City of Winter Springs, Florida, and all approvals
and land development permits shall be in compli-
ance with the comprehensive plan. An amend-
ment to the comprehensive plan has been pro-
posed and is currently being processed by the city.
This amendment is proposed to increase densities
for the area affected by these Town Center regu-
lations; however, until this amendment to the
comprehensive plan is approved and adopted in
accordance with state law, the city cannot law-
fully assure any owner or user of any affected
property densities and land uses not currently
allowed or permitted by the city's comprehensive
plan.

shared real estate amenity.
Building width: The distance from one side of a
building frontage to the other. In conditions where
buildings are attached, building width is the
distinction between buildings which shall be ex-
pressed via a change in architectural expression,
such as a vertical element running from ground to

texture, or a break in facade plane or roof line.
These changes may be subtle or significant, but it
is the intent to avoid homogenous blocks of exces-
sively long buildings.

parl�ing garage, cinema, supermarket etc., to con-
ceal large expanses of blank wall area and to face
the street space with a facade that has doors and
windows opening onto the sidewalk (see diagrams
in section 20-324). Parking garages and their
Liners may be built at different times.
Lot: A single building plot; the smallest legal
increment of land which may be bought and sold.
§ 20 323
Lot frontage: The property line adjacent to the
frontage street.
Marquee: A permanently roofed architectur

The following general provisions apply to all
street types.
(1) Corner radii and clear zones: Corner curb
radii shall be between nine (9) feet and
fifteen (15) feet. Fairly tight turning radii
shorten pedestrian crossings and inhibit
reckless drivers from turning corners at
high speeds. To allow for emergency vehi-
cles (e.g. fire trucks) to turn corners, a
twenty -five-foot radius clear zone shall be
established free of all vertical obstruc-
tions including but not limited to tele-
phone poles, sign poles, fire hydrants,
electrical boxes, or newspaper boxes.

(2) Alleys: Alleys are required in the town
center to minimize curb cuts and to pro-
vide access to parking and service areas
behind buildings. Alley requirements may
be waived by the DRC for access to de-
tached single family residential lots greater
than fifty-five (55) feet in width in situa-
tions in which proper streetfront orienta-
tion, pedestrian circulation, and parking
can still be accomplished. Alley locations
and dimensions are not fixed but shall be
designed to accommodate the alley's pur-

pose. Additional curb cuts shall be added
only with the permission of the develop-
ment review committee. Alleys may be
incorporated into parking lots as drive
aisles and fire lanes.
(3) Exceptions from build to lines: Exceptions
from build -to lines may be granted by the
development review committee for avoid-
ing trees with calipers greater than eight
(8) inches.
On corner sites (within fifty (50) feet of
the corner) with build -to lines set back
from the property line, building frontage
may be positioned forward of the build -to
line up to the property line, provided it
does not encroach upon the clear zone.
(4) Side and rear setbacks: No side or rear
setbacks are required in the Town Center.
(5) First floor height for residential: Residen-
tial uses on the first story shall have
finished floor height raised a minimum of
two (2) feet above sidewalk grade.

designated for portions of the masterplan
in order to provide public access to signif-
icant 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 im-
pact will be created by having the devel-
oped properties back up to the natural
area or park space, or in other locations
where it is deemed to be in the balanced
publicprivate interest to incorporate dou-
ble loaded roads for the economical use of
the property.
(12) Large footprint buildings: Buildings with
a footprint greater than twenty thousand
(20,000) square feet may be built within
the Town Center District by special excep-
tion only. Such buildings must abide by
all rules in this division with the following
special limitations:

street type. The squares, parks, and sta•eets are
related to each other in a hierarchical manner.
When these spaces intersect, the primary space is
determined by its higher order in the hierarchy.
The front of a building and its main entrance
must face the primary space.

rial road and minimize urban sprawl. This dis-
trict is specifically designed to:
(1) Provide high density residential develop-
ment in close proximity to economic cen-
ters for employees.
(2) Discourage urban sprawl by clustering

The board of adjustment will consider any request
for the placement of such other improvements
within a setback, only after a development review
committee review and recommendation. In deter-

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 re-
sponsibility to provide such information and doc-
umentation as may be requested by the develop-
ment review committee in order to justify to the
development review committee that the intrusion
of additional improvements within the normal
setbacks is beneficial to the corridor and will not
adversely affect adjacent property owners.

tent with the architectural design of the principal
structures.
(e) Side and rear elevations of buildings visible
from a public street or adjacent property shall be
designed in the same architectural style as the
main facade.
(f) All doorti for service entrances or bays shall
not face a public street unless they are screened to

meet the circumstances of the specific proposed
development. Such development agreement shall
be reviewed and approved by the city commission.
The city commission may vary the standards of
this division, including building or perimeter set-
backs, parking standards, signage, and other stan-
dards. If an increase in building height beyond
fifty-five (55) feet is requested, the city commis-
sion must find the fire department capabilities
are adequate to address the change. Such consid-
eration shall be based on building site constraints
o-
or physical characteristics of the property; pr
vided specifically, however, that any such conces-
sions for a constrained site shall only be consid-
ered by the city commission in a development
agreement if enhanced perimeter landscaping or
buffering is provided to assure that the objectives
of this division are achieved.

(b) Findings and intent. The city has with
increasing frequency received requests to approve
sites for telecommunications towers. Land devel-
opment regulations have not adequately identi-
fied specific procedures to address recurring is-
sues relating to the approval of locations for
telecommunications towers. Therefore, it is the
intent of this section to address the recurrent
issues pertaining to the approval of telecommuni-
cations towers upon parcels located in the city.
Accordingly, the city commission finds that the
promulgation of this section is warranted and
necessary:
(1) To protect residential areas and land uses
from the potential adverse impacts of tele-
communications towers when placed at
inappropriate locations or permitted with-
out adequate controls and regulation con-
sistent with the provisions of law;
(2) To minimize the adverse visual impacts
resulting from telecommunications tow-
ers through sound and practical design,
siting, landscape screening, and innova-
Supp. No. 1 1370
tive camouflaging techniques all in accor-
dance with generally acceptable engineer-
ing and planning principles and the public
health, safety and welfare;
(3) To avoid potential damage to adjacent
properties through sound engineering and
planning and the prudent and careful
approval of telecommunications tower sites
and structures;
(4) To require shared use/co-location of exist-
ing and new telecommunications towers
(capability of having space for three (3) or
more carriers) to avoid proliferation of
towers throughout the city. One (1) co -
located position shall be reserved exclu-
sively for the nse of the r;tv•
T (5) o ensure that location of telecommunica-
tions towers is consistent with the provi-
sions of the City of Winter Springs Com-
pi°elielisive Ilan, the East Central l'lorida
Regional Policy Plan, the state compre-
hensive plan as well as the provisions of
state and federal law; and
(6) To fix a fair and reasonable compensation,
by resolution of the city commission, to be
paid to the city for the privilege to locate a
telecommunications tower in the city and
defray the administrative costs of review-
ing the applications. Also, a fee shall
apply separately to each antenna user on
the tower or other support structure. Fee
rates shall be renegotiable when contract
expires.
(c) Applicability.
(1) All new telecommunications towers and
antennas in the city shall be subject to
these regulations and all other applicable
regulations. For purposes of measure-
ment, telecommunications tower setbacks
as listed in subsection (f M shall be cal-
culated and applied to facilities located in
the city, irrespective of other municipal
and county jurisdictional boundaries.
(2) All new communications antennas (i.e.,
stealth rooftop or building mounted an-
ZONING
tennas) which are not attached to telecom-
munications towers shall comply with sub-
section (f)(11).
(3) All telecommunication towers existing on
July 14, 1997 shall be allowed to continue
their usage as they presently exist. Rou-
tine maintenance shall be permitted on
such existing towers. New construction
other than routine maintenance on an
existing telecommunications tower shall
comply with the requirements of this sec-
tion.
(4) For purposes of implementing this sec-
tion, a telecommunications tower that has
received city approval or building permit,
but has not yet been constructed, shall be
considered an existing tower so long as
such approval is current and not expired.
(d) Location, permitted uses and special excep-
tions.
(1) Telecommunications towers shall be a per-
mitted use at the following sites (see map
attachment Figure 1 dated July 14, 1997)
subject to other regulations which may
apply:
a. City of Winter Springs Wastewater
