SUMMARY
MBV Engineering, Inc., on behalf of Mr. Richard Jones of Chesser's Gap, LLC, has filed for preliminary plat
approval for a 116 -unit townhouse development located within the Chesser's Gap Commercial PUD on Fleming
Street across from the Wave Street intersection. The project consists of 116 units in 18 residential buildings,
together with associated parking, water and sewer service, drainage, and landscaping. Access to each unit will be
accomplished via an internal road network with one point of access on Fleming Street and an emergency access
easement further to the north, also on Fleming Street. Proposed water and wastewater service will be
accomplished via connection to an Indian River County Utilities water main and sewer system, both already
existing within the PUD. Proposed stormwater drainage for the site has been designed with a relocated central
retention area that will drain into the existing Chesser's Gap PUD master stormwater system, already approved by
SJRWMD. The site consists of 14.5 acres of total land area, of which, 6.67 acres will be impervious (46%) and
7.83 acres will be open space (54%). Future development of a .91 acre recreation tract will consist of a
clubhouse, swimming pool area, and possible tennis courts. The proposed preliminary plat reflects compliance
with current townhouse zoning requirements, including minimum lot size, setback standards, open space
requirements and all other dimensional criteria.
Per the Land Development Code and established City procedures, the Planning and Zoning Commission held a
public hearing at its October 4, 2007 meeting to consider the preliminary plat. The Planning and Zoning
Commission, by a vote of 5-0, made a recommendation to City Council for approval of the Pointe at Chessers
Gap Subdivision with conditions, one being that an updated final plat for the Chesser's Gap PUD be approved
and recorded before final approval of the townhouse project was considered. The updated final plat was
approved by City Council on September 24, 2008 and recorded the next day.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Conduct quasi-judicial public hearing, and move to approve Resolution R-09-03, approving the Preliminary Plat
for The Pointe at Chessers Gap with one condition.

The City Attorney read the ordinance by title, and Mayor McCollum opened the hearing at 7:38
p.m., there was no ex -parte communication to be reported, and the City Clerk swore in all those
who offered to give factual testimony.
Joseph Schulke, Schulke, Bittle & Stoddard, LLC, representing the applicant Sebastian General
Partnership, presented the proposal for modification of the Chessers Gap conceptual
development plan to City Council from industrial to multi -family residential.
The Growth Management Director presented staff recommendation and noted the development
plan will come back before City Council. He then responded to questions from Council.
Ms. Monier strongly recommended that the workforce affordable housing be considered.
Louise Kautenberg, said affordable workforce housing is badly needed in Sebastian.
Bruce Lee was swom, noted objections raised during the Planning and Zoning Commission,
expressed concern about density issues and appealed for lower density.
Andrea Coy questioned the data used to determine need, objected to the modification until there
is a revised comprehensive land use plan and a full plan for the property are in place.
At the request of the City Manager, the Growth Management Director verified that there is a
state mandate to provide for affordable housing and the City is still deficient and could be found
to be inconsistent with its comprehensive land use plan. The Growth Management also noted
the City is only required to update its comprehensive land use plan every ten years, however
the City is revising it sooner to bring it up to standards
TAPE I - SIDE 11(8:02 p.m.)
The Growth Management Director said staff was recommending the modification to the
conceptual development plan tonight based on comprehensive development plan requirements
and zoning consistency, wherein multi -family zoning is more compatible with adjacent single-
family zoning than is industrial zoning.
The City Attorney recommended an author's amendment to Section 1, as follows
.with the January 2004 narrative update and a plan bearing a date with engineer's certificate of
July 20, 2004 prepared by Shulke, Bittle and Stoddard".
The City Attorney noted no one was denied input on the density merely advised that there will
be a full hearing on density at a later date.
Ms. Monier said there is a conceptual plan in place before Council, and said she hoped the
public does come when the preliminary plan comes before Council. The City Attorney said
density will be discussed during preliminary development plan consideration.

Mayor McCollum responded to resident concerns, and expressed his concern if this was to
remain industrial, and his concurrence with the need for multi -family.
Mr. Barczyk said the name should be "homes for working families" rather than affordable
housing; said quality of life means different things to different people, and there is a need for
multi -family in Sebastian.

Mr. Coniglio said Council appreciates the manner in which C-otateil protects them with good
information.
Mr. Heptinstall said he feels there is not enough done to enlighten citizens about the policies
and procedures needed to conduct the business of the City; said Council is not trying to ignore
anyone but there are legalities they must abide by. He invited residents to contact individual
councilmembers with questions.
On MOTION by Mr. Coniglio, and SECOND by Ms. Monier, Resolution No. R-04-29 was
adopted as amended (by the City Attorney) by a roll call vote of 5-0.
Mayor McCollum called recess at 8:18 p.m. and reconvened the meeting at 8:28 p.m. All

The City Manager gave a brief background on the request from Keep Indian River Beautiful and
requested further Council direction be offered to staff. He said that Cheryl Cummins and
Carolyn Corum from Keep Indian River Beautiful were present to address Council.
The City Attorney requested clear direction as to whether Council wants the recovery center
located at the City complex or does it simply want to offer administrative offices. He said the
recovery center would best be located in the back building, administrative offices would be best
located in the old City Hall building with conditions decided by the location.

2-5.2.4(e)(8) for townhouse development regarding access for each unit,
unified control (ownership of property to be platted), construction
development standards, and common open space (private deed restrictions)
have been provided and reviewed through the plat and site plan information.
14. City Engineer's review: The preliminary plat and site plan was reviewed, and
all issues identified by the City Engineer have been resolved.
15. Other Matters: Currently, the applicant's warranty deed shows ownership of
15.78 acres. The survey reflects an existing retention pond to be relocated to
the center of the multi -family units. Once the stormwater area has been
relocated, a portion of the pond, 1.28 acres, will be deeded back to the
Chesser's Gap PUD POA (Property Owners Association) bringing the total
residential acreage to the allowable 14.5 acres. The existing retention pond (and
hence the relocated pond) is included in the master stormwater system designed
and constructed for build -out of the total 58 acres of the PUD.
An Environmental Impact Report was submitted with the application and updated
September 2007 and October 2008. It was reviewed by the Environmental
Planner and approved for its contents, methodology, and findings. She
recommends the following conditions prior to construction activity:
a) Proper demolition permits should be received from the Building
Department and Environmental Health Department for the existing
structures on site with regards to the abandonment of the septic
systems, lead and asbestos reports, and proper abatement of the
buildings which were built prior to 1978.
b) All soil erosion control measurements and best management
practices should be in place before landclearing and inspected by the
city environmental planner.
c) If no construction activity occurs within six months from final approval
of the plat and site plan, an updated environmental, report will be
required prior to landclearing permit issuance.
In July 2008 an interlocal agreement with Indian River County and the School
District was finalized, making it mandatory that all residential projects which are
not defined as exempt, must receive a School Concurrency Availability
Determination Letter (SCADL) from the School District before they receive
approvals. This process will determine if the schools within the new subdivision's
district will be able to accommodate the students projected to be generated from
the project.
A SCADL was received on December 22, 2008 determining that the SSAB
(School Service Area Boundary) for Sebastian does have sufficient space for
students from this project.
16. Conclusion: As proposed, The Pointe at Chesser's Gap Subdivision is
consistent with all applicable state and local laws with respect to subdivision
development, including provisions contained within the Comprehensive Plan and
Land Development Code, with conditions as noted in Staff Recommendation.
17. Recommendation: Staff recommends that City Council approve the preliminary
plat for The Pointe at Chesser's Gap with the following condition:
1) 1.28 acres of the relocated stormwater pond shall be deeded back to the
Chesser's Gap PUD POA after construction of said stormwater pond, and before
final platting of the Pointe of Chesser's Gap Subdivision occurs.

commented that the agenda does not have a public input segment and thought it should.
He mentioned he was looking to develop another marina on Indian River Drive and
asked if parking, drainage and landscape be required. Ms. Bosworth said yes. He
commented he was not in favor of the outcome of Mr. Allocco's removal from the board.
He asked about the status of the resolution for electrifying his docks. Mr. Stringer said
he is working on a total resolution rather than a "piece -meal".
Mr. Morrison expressed his opinion of the city council and Mr. Allocco's removal.
DIRECTOR MATTERS:
Ms. Grohall informed the commission that Mr. Keough's term expires November 1 and
he sept an e-mail stating he would not be seeking another term. The city will be
soliciting applications for planning and zoning board members.
ATTORNEY MATTERS:
In answering Mr. Paul, Mr. Stringer said they are not only legislative but also judicial in
their functions and cautioned them that some public comment could compromise the
commission's decisions in the future. Mr. Paul asked staff about having agenda items in
the back of the room for review and Ms. Bosworth said it is scanned and available
through the website. Also, the notices have a statement regarding where and when
packet information can be viewed.
Mr. Paul adjourned the meeting at 9:48 p.m.
