Schulke asked Tracy Hass for a report on the City Council workshop meeting of the night before in reference to the proposed Land Development Code changes. Tracy noted that the session went very well and proceeded through Article X. He indicated that Council discussed minimum house size and felt it should be increased. After discussion and staff investigation, staff recommendation would be 1200 square feet minimum for RS-10, 1400 for RS-20, and 1600 for RE-40. He also noted that information has reached him that the SHIP program (federally funded for first time buyers) now builds a 1,200 - 1,300 square foot home, up from 900 - 1,000 a couple of years ago. Another issue was limiting the height of chimneys, steeples, spires, e~, and they decided to limit these items to a height of 20% above the roof top in any given zoning district. There is an exemption for church steeples and communication antennas. The 20% factor would be applicable to residential structures in the areas of 25 ft. and 35 ff. roof heights. The third issue discussed was the greater than 5,000 square ff. structures in the CWR zoning district. Tracy noted that most of this CVVR district is along indian River Ddve. Council directed staff to do research and come up with a better figure. He noted that last night staff suggested that the over-5,000 sq. ft.-provision be deleted from the CVVR PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION MINUTES OF REGULAR MEETING OF APRIL 20, 2000 district, and only permit up to 5,000 sq, ft. in CWR. Over 5,000 sq. ft, is still permitted along U.S. 1 and CR 512. Tracy noted that another subject came up after the Council workshop meeting - that subdivision developers be required to construct all site and recreational amenities within a certain time period, which would prevent them from pulling out of a development without fulfilling their promises to homebuyers. Commission members brieflY discussed this issue and determined that careful consideration will have to be given to it. Concurrency Management was noted and should have some bearing on the amenity issue. MEMt~ER MATTERS: Mr. Mahoney mentioned the new paint job on the old Bama-Lawson historical house on U.S. 1. Chmn. Schulke adjourned the meeting at 7:41 pm. (4/21/oo AB)
