following the Development Review Committee hearing.

Commission shall have authority to require that the applicant satisfy any
additional conditions it deems necessary to fulfill goals of the master plan,
including reasonable offsite improvements directly related and proportionate to
the specific impact of the request, or further review(s) and approval by the

CHRONOLOGY
The Town Center District Code was adopted June 12,2000.
The City Commission approved the building elevations and floor plan for the Washington
Mutual Bank on June 10, 2002, subject to a special exception for the second floor
spandrel window glazing and the metal awnings.
Special Exception material was reviewed by the StaffDRC on June 18,2002.
FINDINGS: 1. JDC and the Washington Mutual Bank have petitioned for two special
exceptions to the Town Center District Code, pursuant to Subsection 2 (C) ofthe
Code and the four (4) criteria set forth therein.
2. The special exceptions requested are:
1) Reflective and bronze tinted glass: Section vrn of the Town
Center District Code prohibits reflective and/or bronze-tint glass (p.29).
Subsection vrn (D), on page 31, of the Town Center District Code further
states the following:
"Each floor of any building fa9ade facing a park, square or street shall
contain transparent windows..."
The City Commission allowed reflective and bronze tinted spandrel glass
for alternating first floor "store fronts," between the "store fronts" with
transparent bay windows, along the Publix S.R. 434 frontage. Here, the
request is to allow spandrel glass only for windows on the second floor
fa9ade. An alternative would be to provide frosted glass, which would not
require a special exception. Staff recommends that if the second story
spandrel glass is approved, that it (or frosted glass) be required behind the
operable shutters, to allow the shutters to be opened from time to time.
This would enhance the appearance of a real second floor, which adds to
the Town Center effect.
2) Metal Awnings: Subsection vrn (G) (1) ofthe Town Center District
Code,(p. 34) allows fabric awnings (no backlighting and no glossy-finish
fabrics).
The City Commission allowed metal awnings at Publix and each set of
plans within the Town Center has depicted metal awnings (e.g. Buildings

Public Hearing Item F

9, 11, 13, and 14). The applicant has been advised ofthe inconsistency
with the Code.
3. The two special exception requests are consistent with the City's
Comprehensive Plan.
4. The two special exception requests meet the four (4) special exception
criteria set forth in Subsection IT C ofthe Town Center District Code:
1) The two special exceptions contribute to, promote, and encourage the
improvement of the Winter Springs Town Center and catalyzes other
development as envisioned in the Winter Springs Town Center
regulations.
2) The proposed development will not have an unfavorable effect on the
economy of the Winter Springs Town Center.
3) The proposed development abides by all rules in this code other than
those specifically excepted. Special limitations applying to large
footprint buildings are met.
4) The proposed development meets any reasonable additional
conditions, restrictions or limitations deemed necessary by the City
Commission in order to preserve and promote the intent of the Winter
Springs Town Center Master Plan.
RECOMMENDATION:
The Staff Development Review Committee recommends that the City
Commission approve the special exceptions as requested, pursuant to the four (4)
criteria set forth in Section IT C of the Town Center District Code. Staff does,
however, recommend that the operable shutters be required to have either spandrel
or frosted glass behind them, so they can and will be opened from time to time.
