A. Discussion -- Land Development Code Amendment -- Medium Density
Residential Development (MDR), Draft RM-10 (Residential Multi -Family, 10
units/acre) Zoning District and Attainable Housing
Ms. Bosworth stated that this meeting is being held this evening because staff wanted to
start off with a discussion rather than coming before the Commission dealing with this
matter with a public hearing. As staff was putting together this new zoning district as
required by the Comprehensive Plan, they had some items when putting together the
ordinance that they felt they wanted to run past this Commission first to see if we are on
the right track and if the Commission members feel this is a good direction to begin to
address attainable housing. Following this evening's input from the Commission, staff
will create an ordinance, and they will schedule a public hearing for the LPA with the
Commission's input tonight integrated into the ordinance. Reviewing some of the
information that was given to the Commissioners tonight regarding attainable housing,
she opined that this is a good starting point from which to proceed. She also stated that
Kelley Klepper and Monet Moore from Kimley-Horn & Associates are present, and they
will participate in the discussion. They have put together a Power Point with some slides
that will relate to the discussion tonight.
Mr. Klepper introduced himself and Ms. Moore. He explained that tonight is a workshop,
and he is looking for the Commissioners' input. He stated that the Comprehensive Plan
will be discussed. Though there are no modifications to be made to the Plan, this will
give us the legal basis to move forward with the implementation of the RM-10 and some
of the other standards. The Code itself is what implements the Plan. He reviewed how
there was a series of policies that came out as part of the Comprehensive Plan, including
an update to the land -use element that provided for the lead-in to the MDR.
Mr. Klepper made a Power Point presentation (SEE ATTACHED) which covered several
aspects and examples of the types of housing that could be implemented going forward.
PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION/LOCAL PLANNING AGENCY PAGE 3
MINUTES OF JULY 7, 2022
He emphasized that what is suggested does not in any way change anyone's existing
property development approvals or rights. This is one additional tool that the City has at
its disposal to help achieve attainable housing that is missing in Sebastian —providing
densities that can be a bit more cost effective from a development perspective and also
provide a better usage of the City's infrastructure from a level -of -service perspective.
There was an extended discussion among the Commissioners, Mr. Klepper, Ms. Moore,
and Ms. Bosworth regarding the proposed RM-10 zoning district. Following this
discussion, it was the consensus of the Commissioners that they liked the proposed
regulations and criteria, and that this is a good first step in the process of implementing
attainable housing in Sebastian.
Following the discussion, Mr. Klepper suggested that the Commissioners talk to others
about this matter and provide input to the Community Development staff so that they can
give those comments to Kimley-Horn. That way, he and his staff can include those
suggestions when they bring this matter back to the Commissioners.
Ms. Kautenburg thanked everyone for putting this presentation together.

8. Project Description
a. Narrative of proposed action: The applicant is requesting approval of a three -lot
residential subdivision on 8.8 acres located on Laconia Street, south of Gladiola
Avenue. Subdivision improvements include a private roadway, stormwater drainage,
connection to the water utility, and a new fire hydrant. Sewer utilities are not
available in this area. The property is the northern portion of a previously approved
37-lot subdivision known as Turtle Grove. The subdivision was never constructed
and an earlier FWC "take" permit for the Gopher Tortoises has since been
rescinded.

12. City Engineer's Review: All comments and concerns were addressed
13. Other Matters:
• A platted, 40-foot wide drainage Right -of -Way owned by the city runs parallel along the
subdivision's north boundary line. The applicants have agreed to allow the city access along
the private Terra Lane, and extend that access into Parcel 3 by creating a 25-foot
ingress/egress easement, both adjacent to the ditch, for yearly maintenance activities
performed by the city. Formal dedication language establishing this access will need to be
added to the Final Plat.
4
• Laconia Street, in this area of Sebastian Highlands, is a one-way roadway until it reaches the
Gladiola Avenue intersection, with vehicles travelling south to north. The Terra Estates
access from Laconia Street is designed as a left -in, left out only entrance. As such,
appropriate signage and stripping has been indicated on the plat, and specific details will be
provided with the subdivision construction drawings.
An Environmental Analysis of the property was submitted with the application. Wetland areas
exist within the very western portion of Parcel 3 in proximity to the St. Sebastian River. This
area of the parcel is not conducive to development, and most likely will remain as a
preservation or conservation area. Numerous Gopher Tortoise burrows were found,
however, within the proposed street area, and on Parcels 1 & 2. Relocation of the tortoises
through proper jurisdictional permitting must occur before permitting for construction and land
clearing in these areas can be approved.
• Although the subdivision proposes only three residential lots, a letter from the IRC School
Board regarding available school capacity is still required.
14. Conclusion: The proposed three -lot subdivision is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan,
the Code of Ordinances and the Land Development Code.
15. Recommendation: Staff recommends that the Planning and Zoning Commission find the
Terra Estates Preliminary Plat to be consistent with the Comprehensive Plan, the Code of
Ordinances and the Land Development Code, and that they forward their recommendation of
approval to City Council with the following conditions:
1. The subdivision's Final Plat must include dedication verbiage that allows the City of
Sebastian access over Tract A and the 25-foot ingress/egress easement that is
depicted on Parcel 3 in order to allow for maintenance activities of the city's adjacent
40-foot wide drainage ROW.
2. A School Capacity Availability Determination Letter (SCADL) is received from the IRC
School Board before construction begins.
3. An updated Gopher Tortoise survey is submitted with the Landclearing Permit.
