included as part of the overall development of Tuskawilla Crossings. Additionally, Mr.

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.

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

Regarding pricing, Mr. Morris stated, "We're probably starting in the tipper 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 Roadj 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 (41 different design plans for what the frontage would like on that buffer of
sixty feet(601 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 ifs going to work but I can tell you most likely it's going to he next to
or underneath the driveway on the backside of those houses."
Brief discussion followed on the Church property and its construction in 1974.
