502. Community Development Department
Requests The Commission Consider A Conceptual Development Plan For A 170
Unit Town-House Development On 11 (Eleven) Acres In The County Enclave Of
The Town Center, Located On The South Side Of SR (State Road) 434, Between
The Winter Springs Automotive Site And Tuskawilla Road (The Site Does Not
Extend East To Tuskawilla Road).
Commissioner McLeod noted for the record, "I am the Property Owner of this particular
parcel. "
Mr. John Baker, AICP, Senior Planner, Community Development Department spoke on
this Agenda Item.
Discussion.
Mr. Baker stated, "This is again a concept plan for one hundred seventy (170) units on
eleven (11) acres. That is 15.5 units to the acre which is considerably less than the thirty-
six (36) units per acre, allowed within the Town Center. The Applicant proposes one
hundred seventy (170) rear loaded - that means garage entrance from an alley way in the
back, town homes; a recreational facility with a pool; a pocket park; and an acre and a
half storm water pond - amenity feature. Please note that some of the units do not front
on a street, but instead front on the common open area. Our Consultant has looked at that
and said that is not a problem - that is actually okay. Utilities and garbage collection and
access to the garages will all be from the alleys in the rear.
The Town Center Code addresses this property in its 'Squares, Parks and Streets Map'.
The City map in the Town Center Code shows a 'Frontage Road' and three (3) roads
intersecting that 'Frontage Road' at approximately ninety (90) degree angles. We have a
slightly different plan from that - we note that when the Town Center Code was
conceived, there was talk about master planning stomlwater - that has not proved to be
practical for most of the Town Center, so we have the on-site stormwater that has been
incorporated as an amenity feature. Dover, Kohl [& Partners] has looked at this in its
initial stages and had some comments that were included in your packet. They felt that
some additional points of access to [State Road] 434 would be good, but they were
basically pretty happy with the plan that they saw.
They addressed the Code requirement for a six foot (6') masonry wall saying that they
thought it would be much better to have enhanced vegetative landscaping along that back
side. We received the Concept Plan in its basic forn1at, but with some street types added
late last week; and when we got it, we forwarded it to Dover, Kohl [& Partners] and you
have the memo that they provided us this afternoon. I have also provided that to Mr.
Corkery via email."

REGULAR MEETING - AUGUST 23, 2004

Mr. Baker continued by saying, "Basically, what you have is a very nice layout, but I
would point out that the street layout is different than in the Town Center Code. You
have a limited 'Frontage Road' you're connecting here to the Miranda site which has a
'Frontage Road'. That's good. The City Commission would have to waive the rest of the
'Frontage Road' requirement according to the Town Center Code. The street types are
different than set forth in the Town Center Code and the Dover, Kohl [& Partners] Memo
and attached map does address that. I think you have a limited 'Frontage Road', you
have the 'Neighborhood Street's, then you have the 'Edge Drive' and that is not quite
what Dover, Kohl [& Partners] had prescribed.
You have on - your new Concept Plan, the 'Urban Boulevard' as you come in across the
[State Road] 434 from Cliffrose [Drive] Boulevard that turns into a 'Neighborhood
Street'; the portions of the generally east/west roads that abut the pond amenity feature
are the 'Edge Drives' and the rest are either the 'Neighborhood Street' or the 'Town
Center Street'. The Applicants' proposal had the connection road that goes between
these two (2) east/west streets as an 'Edge Drive', but there is no edge there, so, Dover,
Kohl [& Partners] is saying that needs to be either a 'Neighborhood Street' or the 'Town
Center Street'. So, we go back and note that indeed this is not currently in the City, but it
was planned for with the Town Center Code - that it is somewhat different than the Town
Center Code and that any deviation from the Town Center Code needs to be addressed
appropriately. You have the Dover Kohl [& Pariners] Memo with the recommendation-
they seem to be generally happy with the plan with these minor modifications and we
stand with Dover Kohl's [& Partners] recommendation."
Discussion.
Manager McLemore said, "What I would like to know, from the right person, Tom
[Corkery] is - these additional issues that Victor [Dover] has on this Memorandum,
August 23rd [2004] - are there any issues here?"
Mr. Tom Corkery, 759 Bear Creek Circle, Winter Springs, Florida: noted a document
being distributed to the City Commission and while referring to documents stated, "This
is the 'Edge Drive' that Dover, Kohl [& Partners] is talking about right here; which I
don't think they had any problem with it through our Meetings, 'cause these units are
going to have pretty views over to the retention pond. We have parking over here - right,
we have parking over here. So that's the - only 'Edge Drive' that they are talking about."
Manager McLemore stated, "The comment that 'Edge Drive' should only be used in
locations that have open space along one (1) side of the street; such as, around the
retention pond..." Mr. Corkery said, "...That's the only 'Edge Drive' we have - is there
around the retention pond. So that's already been taken care of."

With further discussion, Mr. Baker noted, "I would point out there is a proposed
Development Agreement - that apparently the Applicants have been working with our
City Attorney on to have a collector road through here and there is a Comprehensive Plan
requirement that we have a bicycle lane on any collector road, so we'd either have to
amend the Comprehensive Plan or comply with that."
Tape 2/Side 8
Discussion.
Mr. Tony Weremechik, Architectural Design Manager, Canin Associates, Inc., 500
Delaney Avenue, Suite 404, Orlando, Florida: stated, "Being familiar with this, there are
two (2) lanes of travel. Okay. There is a green side or the open space on one (1) side
here recognized by a trail and I think it says 'green strip' - that's the open side. Then on
the building side, which is over here, with the porches, with the sidewalk, with the green
strip and the on street parking on one (1) side. And that is what we have achieved, we
believe right here with what they are calling the 'Edge Drives'. Right there and there,
both sides of the streets - lined with trees."
With further discussion, Mr. Corkery added, "To address the parking issues, you have
one hundred seventy (170) units; two (2) car garages for each unit; and an additional one
hundred three (103) - guest parking spaces, which far and exceeds your two and a half (2
!h) parking spaces per unit. So, I think as far as guest parking, we are well taken care of
on this. So, we maybe need a little bit of flexibility which your Town Center Code
allows us to do on those portions of the road." Discussion.
Mr. Corkery continued, "It's a design; it's a tight project. These are fifty feet (50) right-
of-ways that we have here; with your sidewalks; your heavy landscaping for these units
here; I don't have any more room to put a whole other set of parking area here."
Manager McLemore said, "I don't think we need any more than fifty feet (50') to
accomplish that, do we?"
Discussion.
Manager McLemore stated, "The extension of the entrance could be either
'Neighborhood Street' or 'Town Center Street' due its prominent location in the plan. Is
that an issue?" Mr. Corkery answered, "No." Manager McLemore continued, "But, I
think that each one has a different cross section - is there an issue?" Manager McLemore
said to Mr. Baker, "His second comment, the extension of the entrance could - be either
'Neighborhood Street' or 'Town Center Street' due to its prominent location in the plan -
so what is the issue relative to this plan? Operationalize that for me and do we have a
problem with that?"

CITY COMMISSION

Mr. Baker said, "The only places that I'm aware - this is okay as a 'Neighborhood Street'
or 'Town Center Street' - these should not be 'Edge Drives' because that shows the
parking on one (1) side and is talking about like a scenic vista or a trail on the other side.
So, this is the only 'Edge Drive' and these need to either be the 'Neighborhood Street' or
the 'Town Center Street' and I think those have the wider right-of-ways and parking on
both sides of the street - I believe the 'Edge Drive' was chosen because it only has the
parking on one (1) side." Manager McLemore stated, "Okay, so then number two is an
issue?" Mr. Baker responded, "Yes sir." Manager McLemore continued, "From a right-
of-way prospective - in order for them to comply with comment number two." Mr.
Baker said, "Yes sir."
Manager McLemore further stated, "Number one, the entrance road should be labeled
'Urban Boulevard' - 'Urban Boulevard' is an engineering detail, right?" Mr. Baker said,
"That's detailed in the plan, but that appears what they have there right now." Manager
McLemore continues, "So, that's not an issue. Two and three are issues."
Mr. Corkery noted, "This right-of-way is the - 'Town Center Boulevard' - right now it's
a forty foot (40/) right-of-way here, which I believe the Town Center Code is sixty feet
(60') for that, is that correct?" With discussion, Mr. Corkery added, "We have a forty
foot (40') right-of-way here with the 'Edge Drive' - and we continue that with the
collector road coming through the project to the end. And what your - 'Town Center
Boulevard', I believe recommends is sixty feet (60/), but we have parking on both sides
of the Boulevard, so, we have forty feet (40/) here with parking on both sides of the
road." Manager McLemore stated, "So one side was not an issue around the lake right?"
Mr. Corkery responded, "No, not around a lake." Furthermore, Mr. Corkery added, "So
once again, we have plenty of guest parking."
Discussion.
Deputy Mayor Miller stated, "We have 'Edge Drive' on our original documents - it was
something where you would walk along and you would not have to deal with cars, and
anybody that was living around the lake would be able to see the lake, and you wouldn't
have a wall of cars on the other side of the street blocking the water feature."
Deputy Mayor Miller added, "All along that lake right there, there will only be parking
on this side - not on the lake side." Mr. Corkery noted, "That's correct." Deputy Mayor
Miller continued, "Now, these alley ways back here - your footprints of the buildings are
twenty-two (22) by thirty-six feet (36/), which means that your ground floor is going to
be about eight hundred (800) square feet. If you have a two (2) car garage on the ground
floor at the back of each building, the average -let us say it is twenty-two feet (22') wide
by twenty feet (20/) deep - that is four hundred feet (400')."

Deputy Mayor Miller continued, "Four hundred feet (400') on the ground floor for air-
conditioned space. This is going to be a two (2) story building?" Mr. Corkery answered,
"We have two (2) stories and three (3) stories." Deputy Mayor Miller asked for
confirmation - "Because - the two (2) stories will be about a thousand (1,000) square feet
- eleven hundred (1,100) - with a two (2) car garage?" Deputy Mayor Miller was told by
Mr. Corkery's associate, "Yes sir. Each unit has a two (2) car garage. We have four (4)
units; we have a two (2) story; a two and a half (2 Yz); a three (3); and a three and a half
(3 Yz)."
Next, Deputy Mayor Miller noted, "Now I get to the apron behind the garage door - is
there enough room for people to park two (2) cars outside - in front of their garage - on
the back street?" Manager McLemore said, "No, there was no intent to do that." Mr.
Corkery added, "What we have planned for is a paver alley way which is twelve feet
(12') in the center; ten feet (10') going to the actual- the garage door. So, in between the
every two (2) units, is a - little landscaped island there - there is not going to be any
parking in the alley way." Mr. Corkery then said, "We are going to have the mail in the
back; we are going to have garbage pick up in the back - and we wouldn't want people to
park in there, it is going to be in our CCR's [Conditions, Covenants & Restrictions] that
they're not going to be allowed to park there."
With further discussion, Deputy Mayor Miller noted, "So, I guess I get back to - whether
you are going to have adequate parking for visitors - if maybe a quarter have three (3)
cars, they are almost going to be forced to put them in their garage because there is not
going to be any parking space - and then visitors won't get any place at all." With
discussion Mr. Corkery noted, "We have one hundred seventy (170) units and I have a
hundred and three (103) guest parking spaces."
Deputy Mayor Miller asked, "How big is the biggest unit going to be - in square
footage." Mr. Weremechik stated, "It is three and a half (3 Yz) stories." Mr. Weremechik
noted the smallest unit will be "Eleven fifty-four (1154) to be exact." Deputy Mayor
Miller then said, "And you go up to the third floor, then you'd be..." Mr. Weremechik
responded, "... 3 Yz story unit is two thousand two hundred and thirty-nine (2,239) square
feet." Discussion.
Additionally, Deputy Mayor Miller said, "I would just like to make one more comment.
Again, I'm disappointed with the rectangular shape of your retention pond - everybody's
got a square retention pond. It's the easiest thing to build because you maximize the
space."

Mr. Corkery said, "We are going to have to provide storage for your collector road
coming through the property so this is actually an oversized retention area because we are
going to have to supply the storm discharge for your roads - when you rectangular it out
like that you actually get more storage than you do making figure eights and things like
that with the slope and everything else you have to do." Deputy Mayor Miller then
asked, "Will it be dry in the dry season?" Mr. Corkery said, "No, this is our water table,
which is very good - it's four feet (4') from grade so this thing should be about fifteen
feet (15') deep."
Commissioner McLeod stated, "I am a little surprised to hear tonight this 'Edge Drive'
has come up because I sat in a couple different meetings that Mr. [Victor] Dover was in
and I didn't hear any problems with the circulation pattern. As a matter of fact, this is the
circulation pattern that he had suggested; and I didn't hear anything about parking on
both sides of the street."
Furthermore, Commissioner McLeod noted, "Also, I was given the indication that there
was not a problem if the Developer wanted to go with one-way streets in here. I don't
think the City wants one-way streets in here." Additionally, Commissioner McLeod said,
"Several changes have been made here, Commissioners, so that it gave a good flow
pattern. This is the pattern that the Consultants, Traffic Engineer, and also the City
Design Engineer had for laying out the pattern of the homes."
With further discussion, Commissioner McLeod said, "What is. the road width that is on
there presently, Mr. Corkery?" Mr. Corkery answered, "The road width is forty feet.
(40')." Commissioner McLeod continued, "According to the Town Center Code, page
14, it shows you can have an eight foot (8') parking, a ten foot (10') road, a ten foot (10')
road, and an eight foot (8'). That's less than forty feet (40') and you have got traffic in
both directions - I do not believe that is in the best interest of the Commission nor the
City to narrow those streets down there, for that being that narrow. I think you're a little
better off having parking on one (1) side, and wider streets and more greenery. What you
are going to get rid of here, is the greenery along 'Edge Dlive' by the lake, by making
that street wider because there will not be the - place to put trees in and landscape. And-
the pond is designed to be able to be walked around - people, pedestrians and movement
within the complex. So, think about those things if you decide you want to try to make
those roadways wider in there. I think you are making a mistake. And I am surprised our
Consultants didn't tell us this up front. We have met with them twice."
Mr. Corkery said, "With the amount of parking that we have here, a forty feet (40') right-
of-way of pavement, with parking on one (1) side with a retention pond; we had no
problems with any of our earlier meetings with Victor [Dover] on this. We did tweak it
quite a bit from where we started out here. Actually, I think it is a fabulous plan."
With discussion, Mr. Corkery further stated, "These are really quite beautiful units for
town homes. And I think the City would be proud to have these in their community.
They will be the nicest town homes you will have here."

Commissioner Donald A. Gilmore said, "On the right side of the drawing - is that a street
on your property or the adjacent property or a proposed street?" Mr. Corkery answered,
"It's a proposed street that the City wants to build there. We have agreed to give thirty
feet (30') of right-of-way for that road. We had discussions with Mr. McLemore's office
with the property owners - this southeast side here."
Mr. Corkery said, "Commissioner, we really don't have the solution to that because we
have property owners here that really just don't want to get involved at all and are not
interested in anything to do with the City at this time." Commissioner Gilmore asked, "If
you don't have parking along there in the system, what is that going to do for these
homeowners along that side?" Mr. Corkery answered, "Well, they are going to have to
park where this other parking area is until that issue is resolved, until that road is built. I
mean we have room for parking spaces here - we could build this right now and give you
our thirty feet (30') and build fifteen feet (15') of road here. We could build thirty feet
(30') in this area here - it something we need to resolve with your Staff here - what is the
best approach? What would the City like us to do?"
Manager McLemore stated, "We will bring back a temporary solution until we can get
that other thirty feet (30') - so the project can go on." With additional discussion,
Manager McLemore mentioned, "So, we are going to come up with a temporary solution
to fix that road and make the intemal circulation pattern work on a temporary basis until
we get the additional right-of-way."
Deputy Mayor Miller asked, "Are these going to be owner occupied?" Mr. Corkery
answered, "Yes sir." Deputy Mayor Miller then inquired, "A Homeowners'
Association?" Mr. Corkery responded, "Yes sir." Next, Deputy Mayor Miller asked,
"The Park area - does that meet the Town Center requirement for their pocket Parks - the
green area?" Mr. Baker said, "Yes sir. We specifically asked the Dover, Kohl [&
Partners] people about the pocket Park and they were very happy with that."
Regarding the project, Mr. Corkery noted, "Just to go to the design - we have a beautiful
pool/clubhouse." Furthermore, Mr. Corkery added, "The beautiful pool/clubhouse here -
as far as traffic flow, I feel very positive - I live in Winter Springs however, I understand
the traffic that we have here; this will go - one day go to Tuskawilla Road and will be
absolutely fabulous. This lining up with Doran Drive for the High School - for all of
those kids that are coming out here - one day it is going to be really quite an improvement
for our traffic flow here. The City plans to put a signal here; we were given two (2)
easements for both sides for a ten (10) by ten (10) conflict structure for the signalization
for that area there; and a few other things we are giving to the property."

Mr. Corkery then said to the City Commission, "Tonight, I wanted you to look at the
Conceptual Plan - there is some little flexibility I'm asking from you tonight - really not
much at all, but as far as the units are concerned. The type of units, the architectural -
they are absolutely gorgeous, and I think I'd like to get - I got your feedback, so I would
like to get some sort of answer from you this evening."
Manager McLemore then said to Attorney Garganese, "On the Comp [Comprehensive]
Plan issue for bicycle lanes, are they applicable in the Town Center?"
Attorney Garganese stated, "The Comprehensive Plan always prevails. If there is a
conflict between the Zoning Code and the Comprehensive Plan, the Comprehensive Plan
will prevail, but I haven't analyzed this particular provision of the Comprehensive Plan,
so we will take a look at it before we bring the Development Agreement back, which will
probably be the next Meeting."
With additional discussion, Manager McLemore noted, "I want to talk to Victor [Dover]
about these road issues and see if there are any real issues here." Furthermore, Manager
McLemore added, "We need to come back with an answer on this Comp
[Comprehensive] Plan issue."
Mr. Corkery said, "As quickly as we can get this approved with the City and get my St.
Johns - we have no wetlands on the property. We have got a couple of gopher tortoises,
so really that should be very easy. Hopefully, with the City, we get approval from you
through our Engineering - or anything else, sometime in December; St. John's permit,
sometime in January; break ground in February - he wants to go as fast as I do - Levitt
Homes, so, we are very excited about building this community."
"I WILL MAKE A MOTION THAT WE - APPROVE THEIR CONCEPTUAL

allowed." Manager McLemore noted, "Would not require a License."

Commissioner Blake noted, "We will find a way to get it fixed." Commissioner Gilmore
said, "I support the issue too that the people need to get out of their homes."

Deputy Mayor Miller noted, "I think the best thing to do right now is to have somebody
designated to go and make a detem1ination of each one of these homes in the next
twenty-four (24), forty-eight (48) hours. If it is found it is uninhabitable for whatever
reason, then we give them thirty (30) days in a Hotel that has kitchen facilities as several
people have already mentioned, and that we start working through the details."
Deputy Mayor Miller added, "The thing we need to do tonight is to have somebody go
and take a look at all those homes in the next twenty-four (24) hours, and those that are
found to be uninhabitable for whatever the criteria that they use, they can then tell the
homeowner this is where you are at - and the City will then say okay, this is the Hotel
that you can go to, or if they don't want to do that, they can take the money and go some
place else." Deputy Mayor Miller added, "We need to work with these folks - that is a

City and noted, "We are going to be adding on about five (5) or seven (7) more crews
tomorrow for sure, and possibly more." Commissioner McLeod inquired, "How many
people are in a crew?" Mr. Tanner responded, "Usually four (4) or five (5)."
Commissioner Blake said, "When you were here a week ago or so, we were discussing
that third pick-up - you may recall that I had a discussion about how we didn't want it to
be too soon..." Mr. Tanner stated, "Right." Commissioner Blake then stated, "We
talked about public notification, but my problem is that as difficult as it is to get
Contractors out there, that forty-five (45) days may not - in and of itself be enough time,
but certainly, not less than thirty (30) days and the notification I got in the mail said,
September 15th, which is less than thirty (30) days."
Mr. Tanner then said, "I can assure you we're not going to leave here and leave your
streets with a lot of debris on them - however long it takes." Commissioner Blake added,
"My concern is that the debris hadn't got out on the street yet.. ." Mr. Tanner said, "...If
the debris hadn't got out because of bad weather or whatever reason that the people
couldn't get - it out, we're not going to leave you." Commissioner Blake then said, "Ron
[McLemore] - we discussed forty-five (45) days and I got something in the mail that had
thirty (30) days on it and that is not what we discussed a week ago. It is in the Minutes."
Commissioner Blake then said, "I want to make sure that we - fix that, that it is not a
mistake because I am really concemed about folks not being able to get a Contractor to
get someone out there, in order to get it done." With further discussion, Commissioner
Blake noted, "It has to be at least forty-five (45) days." Mr. Tanner added, "We're not
going to leave here and leave you with debris."
Mayor Bush suggested, "I think Commission - we might want to consider giving another
mailing out to the citizens at some point, giving them an update - we need to adjust this
time as Commissioner Blake has indicated."
Deputy Mayor Miller inquired about bags of debris being picked up and Mr. Tanner said,
"Yes sir, we are picking up bags."

United Health Care." Ms. Greco then noted that, "At that point however, we didn't have
the bids for the 'Dental', 'Life', 'AD&D', and 'Long-Term Disability [Insurance]'. Since
then we have gotten those in and that was included in your packet - all the bid
comparisons. And just to recap, the City Manager and Staff recommends for the Health
Insurance provider - United Health Care '44 C', 'HMO' and the 'POS' Plan, but for the
'POS' Plan, as in year's past, the employee would have to pay the additional amount to
above and beyond the 'HMO' portion."

was postponed from August 16, 2004 was needed, and suggested, "If we could do it on
the 30t\ that would be idea!." With discussion, Mayor Bush said, "On the 30th [of
August] - does that work? 6:30 p.m.?" Commissioner Blake stated, "Yes." Mayor Bush
then noted, "August the 30th at 6:30 [p.m.] - a Budget Workshop." With further brief
discussion, Mayor Bush then said, "Is that okay with everybody?" Commissioner
McGinnis added, "Yes."

REPORTS
603. Commission Seat Two - Michael S. Blake
Commissioner Blake spoke on the proposed County Charter Referendum and stated,
"Oviedo has agreed, I think, and they are waiting to hear from me early this morning, to
actually call a Special Meeting prior to that to pass a Resolution - a Resolution of intent
to provide a Moratorium that would cover Annexation in that rural area; Land Use
changes in that rural area; and/or Comp [Comprehensive] Plan changes in that rural area;
and any extension of Water or Sewer Utilities into that area for a period of two (2) years
and three (3) months. They will do that, if we do it - and if we do it and they do it, then
the County has represented to me that they will not put the question on the ballot. That is
two (2) years and three (3) months. After that two (2) years and three (3) months time
expires, if we have not successfully negotiated a workable Joint Planning Agreement
between the City of Oviedo; the City of Winter Springs, and the County [Of Seminole],
then the County would have the right to put it on the Ballot at that time - in other words
in 2006."
With further discussion, Attomey Garganese stated, "The County Commission is going to
hold a meeting at 1 :30 [p.m.] - the most we can do tonight is adopt just a Resolution
declaring your intent to impose a Moratorium on what Commissioner Blake said,
Annexation; Land Use; Zoning; and Utility Extensions. For all intents and purposes, the
Moratorium really affects Annexation because you don't have Land Use authority or
Zoning authority until you annex the propeliy anyway. So you could declare your intent
and come back at the next Commission Meeting and - have First Reading of an
Ordinance which would impose the Moratorium."

Secondly, Commissioner McLeod said to Manager McLemore, "I - did not understand

Commissioner McLeod then said, "Of all disaster or problem issues that I believe as a
Commissioner I should have been called on, I believe this is one that should have taken
top priority by the Manager - getting a hold of myself as a Commissioner and the rest of
these Commissioners and making them aware of the ongoing problem we had here."
