A. Accessory Structure Review -- LDC Section 54-2-7.5 for 297 Joy Haven
Drive, a 700-SQ detached carport.
Ms. Kautenburg called on the applicant to present his information.
James Tracy McCullough stated the proposed construction is to store an RV. At this
time, Ms. Bosworth presented the staff report. She stated that, in working with the
applicant, staff verified that the structure would not be in a rear setback and does meet
all the requirements for the setback. The McCulloughs own three lots. What is shown
on the survey is just two lots that are applicable. Even with the three lots, the maximum
size the homeowners can have based on the City's code is 5% or 1,000 square feet
max. There is an existing shed, and including this, they will be at 988 square feet of
accessory structures for the property. It is a prefab metal carport. The house roof does
have a metal roof, so the roofing materials will match. The partial sides are going to be
metal. Staff worked with the homeowner on matching colors for the sides. The only
thing she wanted to point out, just to clarify so it is part of the record, is the survey. Staff
did verify that they are proposing a 50-foot front setback. Based on the size of it, it will
be 40 feet in the back, not 50 feet that is marked on the survey. Staff will change that in
the building permit. With that, she called for Commissioners comments/questions and
their determination to approve or disapprove of the project.
Mr. Haddix stated he does not see where the document talks about tie -downs. The City
will not permit that without it being tied down. Mr. McCullough stated they will use the
same anchors that mobile homes use. Ms. Bosworth stated there are some additional
pages of this permit application that are more structural to the building permit. The
Building Department will be reviewing that.

Ms. Kautenburg stated that she noted on the plan that it does not say anything about a
closure on the front of the building. She asked if that is going to be an open shed. Mr.
McCullough said yes, it will be. There will be a gable on the rear for structural support.
The front will be open. He added that Carolina Carports do have installation crews, and
they will be installing it, and he will be supervising it. There being no further input, Ms.
Kautenburg called for a motion.
A motion approving the application for construction of the accessory structure at 297
Joy Haven Drive as submitted was made by Ms. Matthews and seconded by Mr.
Haddix.
Roll Call
Ms. Kautenburg -- Yes Ms. Geesey (a) -- Yes
Mr. Haddix -- Yes Ms. Matthews -- Yes
Vote was 4-0 in favor. Motion carries.
X. Commissioners Matters
Ms. Kautenburg stated that, at the Council meeting it was mentioned -- and she thinks
it might be a good idea — adding something to RM-10 which would indicate that a
certain percentage of an RM-10 when we are changing it needs to provide some
attainable housing. She is not sure that is allowed. Ms. Bosworth reminded everyone
that the future Land Use that was updated in the Comp Plan where we established
medium density is now 10 units per acre, 12 units with incentives. Staff has not brought
that incentive ordinance back to the Commission because it has been very hard for staff
to establish how affordability will be maintained. Usually, it would be through deed
restrictions, but if the HOA is taking care of it, does the City have staff who has to
monitor the affordability housing requirements to make sure that it is applied. Now there
is also a new layer of a House Bill in Tallahassee that was passed. There are
consultants, and everyone is reviewing this affordability housing bill, and hopefully they
are sending out guidance to the cities on what we may need to do to adjust our
ordinances to cover that. Staff is trying to work with it for our incentives to say, if you
have this amount of incentives, you may now get 11 units per acre. Then if 30% of
these units were affordable, the incentive was to get to the 12 units.
XI. Citv Attornev Matters -- None

XI. Staff Matters
Ms. Bosworth thanked everyone for coming for this very short meeting. She added that
staff will be finishing the River Oaks PUD review this week. Their conceptual PUD will
be coming before you, possibly at the next meeting. Also, based on the Graves
Brothers annexation, there was an amendment to the Comprehensive Plan, and staff
will have that insert for your books shortly.

8. Project Description
a. Narrative of proposed action: The subject properties, which were previously citrus
groves, were annexed into the City of Sebastian in early 2004, with approvals for their future
land use and PUD-R zoning following shortly after. The Land Development Code requires a
conceptual PUD development plan to be submitted and approved when requesting a PUD
zoning designation. The original conceptual PUD development plan for River Oaks Preserve
was considered and approved in 2004 when the rezoning ordinance was adopted.

Between the years 2005 to 2007, the project received approvals for its Preliminary Plat,
subdivision construction drawings, and was issued a landclearing permit. Partial
landclearing occurred before the project's financing was no longer available, after which
construction was stopped. In the ensuing years, city approvals and permits expired, and the
property has since become overgrown and re -vegetated with Brazilian Pepper Trees. The
current developer purchased the properties in 2020.
Although the original conceptual PUD development plan has expired, the properties retain
their PUD-R zoning designation. The current application is not requesting any rezoning or a
different zoning designation. However, because the current proposed plan is amending the
originally approved River Oaks Preserve conceptual plan, LDC Section 54-4-20.2(a)(5).c.8
requires the plan to be processed and reviewed as per the original.
The current, proposed two -phased plan consists of 146.5 +/- acres, located south of Lanfair
and Lighthouse Avenues, and north of CR 510 and Citrus Hideaway Subdivision. The existing
land use designation is VLDR (Very Low Density Residential) which allows a maximum of 3
units per acre. The current plan outlines a total of 140 standard single-family lots and 212
single-family cluster units for a proposed density of 2.40 units per acre. Additionally, land is
being conveyed to FDOT for their CR510 widening project, along with land dedication to the
city for additional Right -of -Way for a Shakespeare Street extension. The project is located
within the Urban Service Boundary Area for water and sewer utility service.

9. Comprehensive Plan Consistency
a. Future Land Use: Very Low Density Residential (VLDR- 3 units per acre)
b. Level of Service
(1) Traffic: (Initial Traffic Statement enclosed) The estimated preliminary trip generation
for the proposed PUD will create an ADT of 3,212 spread over a projected two-phase
buildout schedule. Therefore, the proposed development will create an increased
demand on the existing roadway network. Traffic impacts to neighboring roadways
and intersections will be analyzed during preliminary plat applications and through a
full Traffic Impact Analysis to determine mitigation strategies and any possible off -site
roadway improvements. The subdivision incorporates two "primary" access points;
one of which will be a direct access to CR 510 and one on the proposed
Shakespeare Street extension. A stabilized emergency access drive is proposed in
Phase 2 from Lanfair Avenue.
(2) Potable Water: The property will be serviced by public water provided by
Indian River County Utility Services. Several points of connection are available. The
applicant will be required to connect to county utilities and has ascertained that
adequate capacity is available at the North and South County Public Water System to
handle the additional projected flows.
(3) Wastewater: The property will be serviced by public waste water provided by Indian
River County Utility Services. The applicant will be required to connect to county utilities
and has ascertained that adequate capacity is available at the North and Central
�3
Wastewater Treatment Facilities to handle the additional projected flows. Points of
connection will be determined and reviewed by IRC Utilities. Once sewer service is
established in the PUD, there may be a possible point of connection to bring sewer
service into the adjacent Sebastian Highlands area.
(4) Stormwater: The level of service standard is regulated by the St. Johns River Water
Management District, the same for all developments. The stormwater management
system will be internal to the development and managed by the HOA.
(5) Recreation: The proposed PUD will be required to contain minimum open space and
recreation areas in accordance with minimum standards as established by the
comprehensive plan. The preliminary development plan will be required to
demonstrate proper compliance with this regulation. Conceptually, the proposed PUD
indicates compliance with these minimum standards.
(6) Solid Waste: There will be an increased demand on solid waste as the property is
currently vacant.
10. Conformance with Code of Ordinances: The proposed conceptual PUD plan is consistent with
the Code of Ordinances.
11. Changed Conditions: Existing site consists of a re -vegetated, abandoned citrus grove with a
proposed change in use to a single-family residential subdivision.
12. Land Use Compatibility: Subject property is adjacent to vacant land, low density residential and
conservation land uses. Low density single-family residential provides for consistency with relation to
future growth and development.
13. Adequate Public Facilities: Public utilities (water, wastewater) will be incorporated within the
development of the proposed PUD, and on -site stormwater tracts are also incorporated in the
proposal.
14. Natural Environment: The proposed PUD will be required to contain minimum open space and
recreation areas in accordance with minimum standards as established by the comprehensive plan.
The preliminary development plan will be required to demonstrate proper compliance with this
regulation including any required mitigation measures and minimum buffer areas around existing
wetland and river tributary areas.
15. Economic Effect: The proposed subdivision provides an additional 146.5 +/- acres of land area and
352 residential units, which in turn creates an expanded tax base for the City of Sebastian. Fees
collected from the development will fund basic services of the City, including stormwater and
recreation services. The proposed development will not adversely affect the property values in the
area, or the general health, safety and welfare of the community.
16. Orderly Development: The proposed conceptual plan is consistent with the comprehensive plan
and provides for orderly development given the location of the site, which is adjacent to other
residential properties. The property has provided assurance of the availability of sufficient public
facilities and access.
17. Public Interest: The Comprehensive Plan outlines the necessity to incorporate quality residential
developments and housing stock with a mixture of housing types which should be developed as
n
"Healthy Communities." The project, by introducing cluster -type housing units to the area, and
providing recreational amenities that will support healthy lifestyles and physical activities, is consistent
with the future goals and objectives of the City of Sebastian. Therefore, staff finds that the proposed
conceptual plan is not in conflict with public interest.
18. Contents of Conceptual Development Plan:
a. Vicinity map: provided - Zoning and Land Use Maps, attached
b. Property boundaries: provided — Survey, attached
C. Existing conditions: provided — Environmental Assessment, attached
d. Development plan: provided:
(1) Land use: VLDR (Very Low Density Residential)
(2) Circulation: The roadway design plan incorporated within the conceptual
development plan depicts two points of ingress/egress along with an emergency only
access point. The internal circulation system consists of connecting curvilinear streets
within each Phase.
(3) Conceptual drainage plan: Attached - Final design of the proposed wet and dry
stormwater tracts will be required to be in compliance with SJRWMD standards and in
coordination with the Sebastian River Improvement District.
(4) Density: 2.4 units per acre
(5) Nonresidential use square footage: none proposed
e. Written material: Provided — PUD Justification Statement, attached
(1) Planning objectives: The River Oaks Preserve PUD Conceptual Development Plan
consists of 2 Phases. The designation of a property as a PUD is intended to promote
creative design. In a PUD, elements of the design such as lot size, setbacks, etc. may
be negotiated to allow clustering of open space and recreational areas. The proposed
plan indicates that while offsetting requested dimensional considerations with public
benefits, compliance with open space, recreation, and stormwater requirements will be
met.
(2) Development schedule: provided
(3) Environmental impact statement: An initial environmental assessment was
submitted for review with the conceptual PUD plan. A full environmental study will be
provided with the preliminary plat/plan approval, and a 100% Gopher Tortoise Survey
before landclearing.
(4) Public facilities impact statement:
(a) Quantity of wastewater generated; Based on Sebastian's adopted Level of
Service for sanitary sewer, which is 250 gallons per day per unit, an estimated
5
88,000 gallons per day will be generated for the development. Capacity is
available and has been verified with Indian River County Utilities by the
project engineer.
(b) Description of proposed recreational facilities; Both phases will be
providing recreation tracts, trails, and/or Community Common Areas within
their respective area. A portion of the trails will be available for general public
use. Cumulatively, all phases will meet the subdivision's total recreational
space requirement.
(c) Quantity of potable water required; Based on Sebastian's adopted Level of
Service for potable water, which is 250 gallons per day per unit, an estimated
88,000 gallons per day will be generated for the development. Capacity is
available and has been verified with Indian River County Utilities by the
project engineer.
(d) Estimated number of school age children expected within the
development: The developer must provide a School Capacity Availability
Determination Letter (SCADL) from the Indian River County School District
with the submittal of the preliminary plat/plan. However, an initial estimate of
school -attending children that may live in the development, based on a
SDIRC formula, is approximately 144, which current school capacity can
accommodate.
(e) Estimated property tax and/or sales tax revenue generated by the
project by phase; and Not provided
(f) Any other positive or negative public facility impact. In addition, the
statement shall also include all public facilities impact information that
may be submitted as part of the Development of Regional Impact (DRI)
review process, as applicable. This project is not a Development of
Regional impact as defined by the Florida Statutes.
f. Open space and landscaped areas: The proposed PUD will provide 7.09 acres of recreation
space and 84.33 (56%) open space to satisfy the minimum standards as established by the
comprehensive plan. The conceptual plan indicates areas that will be providing perimeter landscape
buffer strips varying in width in addition to required wetland buffers. Staff recommends that in areas
where a single-family or cluster unit lot abuts a wetland buffer that a conservation or agriculture -type
fence is installed to help prevent residential encroachment.
19. Other Matters:
The developer is requesting consideration in regards to the PUD design for the proposed
average lot widths, minimum yard setbacks, cluster unit lot dimensions and lot coverage,
one-sided bike/sidewalk on Shakespeare Street, and to include the garage in cluster housing
for parking. These design allowances would be counterweighed with additional public
benefits such as the Shakespeare Street extension ROW dedication, conveyance of
property to FDOT, tree and wetland preservation, the trail system, and lower density.
The subdivision property contains easements and drainage ROW's owned by the Sebastian
River Improvement District (SRID). The applicant has met and coordinated with SRID in
0
regards to the subdivision's proposed conceptual design. SRID will not formally consent to
the proposed design at this time until additional technical stormwater details are provided
and easements are re -dedicated and/or abandoned. However, they have submitted a
Proposed Release Agreement to staff (attached) indicating the conditions the project will
need to address in proceeding forward. If the proposed subdivision plan is amended
considerably in order to address SRID's drainage rights, the revised plan may need to be
reconsidered by the PZ Commission and City Council.
The developer and project engineer have met and coordinated with FDOT in regards to its
upcoming CR 510 widening project and is conveying property adjacent to the roadway for
anticipated improvements. Based on the initial traffic statement submitted for the PUD, "the
level of service is C in the existing condition and will remain level of service C in post
development, post widening condition." A full Traffic Impact Analysis will be required with the
subsequent Preliminary Plat application that will be reviewed by both FDOT and IRC.
The developer is proposing to construct, and then dedicate to the city, 1270 linear feet of 50-
foot wide right-of-way for the two-way, south end portion of the proposed Shakespeare
Street extension, located along the eastern boundary of the subject property. Another 720
linear feet of 25-foot wide right-of-way for the one-way, north end continuation of
Shakespeare Street will be also be constructed and dedicated to the city as part of Phase 1.
In the future, additional right-of-way from a recently annexed parcel adjacent to the River
Oaks property will be dedicated when future development occurs on that parcel, providing for
another section of Shakespeare Street to extend to two-way traffic.
The existing tree survey indicates protected and specimen trees that the surveyor could
assess and locate considering the current accessibility conditions of the property, i.e.
thickness of Pepper Tree growth throughout. At this point in development, landclearing is not
permitted, with the city consenting to minimal grubbing to allow limited surveying for wetland
determination and initial assessment of flora and fauna. The developer has provided for
increased buffer areas along the northern boundary in order to preserve the existing
hardwood hammock. A follow-up tree survey will be required with the Preliminary Plat
submittals for each phase, allowing for a more accurate review of tree preservation in other
areas not yet thoroughly surveyed.
Existing wetland areas and limits (10.64 acres) were approved by SJRWMD in February
2023. The conceptual plan has been designed to provide the required SJRWMD 25-foot
wetland buffer around those areas in addition to the extra 25-foot buffer that the city
requires. Nature trails are being incorporated into the 50-foot buffer areas in order to allow
the project to meet its recreational requirements and affording the subdivision residents —
and in some areas, the general public — enjoyment of the preserved natural environment. To
maintain these natural buffers and trail areas, staff recommends that where a residential lot
abuts a buffer tract or easement, a conservation or agriculture -type fence (split -rail) is
installed to prevent adjacent residential encroachment into the buffer area (with fire pits, play
equipment, etc.) The fence would be a visible boundary for the buffer area and/or residential
lot.
• The Fire Marshall has reviewed the cluster -unit lay -out with regards to fire truck and
emergency vehicle access, and has found accessibility to be in compliance with regulatory
fire codes.
7
20. Conclusion: The proposed Conceptual PUD Development Plan is consistent with the
Comprehensive Plan, Land Development Code and Code of Ordinances.
21. Recommendation: Staff recommends that the Planning and Zoning Commission forward a
favorable recommendation to the City Council to approve the requested Conceptual PUD
Development Plan for River Oaks Preserve with the following conditions:
a) In areas where a residential property line abuts a wetland buffer area or conservation
tract/easement, a 3-4 foot high fence will be required, i.e. a conservation or split -rail type
fence, to establish the specific boundary and prevent encroachment of accessory residential
activities
b) Wetland buffer areas, notably in the NW corner, that encroach into proposed residential lots
will be required to mitigate, one square -foot for one square -foot, to an applicable, alternative
area within the PUD and must be shown on the Preliminary Plat.
c) Alternative ground covers (vs. gravel) for the trails adjacent to the wetland buffer areas shall
be considered
d) Construction of the north 720 linear feet of the one-way Shakespeare Street extension shall
occur in Phase 1, and with the final design approved by the City Engineer
e) If the final drainage plan, after working with SRID, modifies the conceptual design
considerably, the Conceptual PUD Development Plan will need to be reconsidered by the PZ
Commission and City Council.

JUSTIFICATION STATEMENT
ORIGINAL SUBMITTAL: NOVEMBER 9, 2022
1ST RESUBMITTAL: APRIL 28, 2023
2"d RESUBMITTAL: July 20, 2023
Introduction:
On behalf of the Applicant, 85 Sebastian LLC, 2GHO, Inc., acting as agent, respectfully request
approval of the following requests:
1. PUD Conceptual Development Plan for 146.52 acres of land for a residential Planned
Unit Development of 352 detached single-family units for sale or rental at 2.40 du/ac.
River Oaks Preserve PUD will be a single-family residential development within the City of
Sebastian on 146.52 acres of land. The current Land Use Designation is Very Low Residential
and a Zoning of PUD-R.
The site is a combination of natural wetlands stemming from or part of the South Prong of the
Saint Sebastian River and a vacated citrus farming endeavor with man-made canal remnants.
The development concept is to celebrate the natural features and carry the form throughout the
project with publicly accessible trails through natural and created wetlands, storm water ponds
and open spaces. The proposed development is poised to set a precedent for future residential
development in Sebastian that prioritizes environmentally sustainable design and community
engagement.
There are two separate residential building typologies proposed:
1. The northern part of the project will have 55' and 70' wide single-family lots, similar to
what was approved in 2006. These lots will be within (2) internal gated entries.
2. The southern portion of the project contains two different detached single-family cluster
housing types around a courtyard which we are calling Court A and Court B. Court A has
9 single-family units surrounding a courtyard while Court B has 7 units, both accessible
for fire rescue. All units are efficiently sized with an average of approximately 1,300
square feet of livable space (not including the two -car garages) to appeal to a broad range
of residents and lifestyles, which is consistent with the goals of the Comprehensive Plan.
As part of the PUD and consistent with the goals of a PUD, the Court designs are
requesting relief to several dimensional criteria as part of the PUD. This includes relief on
single-family lot area and setbacks to create a unique living environment which increases
the open space for the project. The cluster housing units are each on their own separate
tax parcels. The intent of the Applicant is to develop this cluster type housing as rental
homes, a much -needed housing product type in Sebastian and the overall region,

however as each unit will be on a separate tax parcel so the Applicant could sell the
homes if desired.
The Court design of cluster housing offers a unique life style of socializing in the courtyard for
those in the cluster. Driveways are very short to discourage parking in front of the individual
garage and promote parking inside the garage. With a signature planting/tree in the center of
each courtyard, individual character will be developed and a sense of uniqueness. This cluster
style development also allows the perimeter access roads to contain a beautiful green vegetation
buffer rather than a row of single-family homes and their garages. Moreover, the cluster housing
allows for greater shared amenities, open space and improved sense of community.
The cluster housing meets the intent of the Comprehensive Plan in several aspects and is
allowed through the PUD process. First, it provides efficiently sized housing with unit types that
are sufficient for most needs of the targeted population. People who are seeking non- apartment
living but who do not want to care for private landscaping or other homeownership costs will find
this product type particularly desirable. There is minimal land around the house structures which
still allows for patios and a sense of privacy while being managed by the property association.
Planning housing in this manner creates units that have little to no grass to minimize irrigation
demand but rather low growing material to create a natural oasis surrounding a paved court with
center planting area. The land, which under typical designs as part of a single-family lot, is given
over for shared use and added to the overall open space of the community as a whole. The
cluster housing, as proposed:
1. Brings amenities of a common clubhouse, community pool, playground, mail building
pickleball courts and dog park for residents;
2. Allows a trail system to meander throughout the project through natural and man-made
ecosystems. Access to the trails is never far from any one house or court. The trail system
gets residents outside and moving for better health;
3. Minimizes high maintenance landscaping in lieu of natural, minimally maintained,
landscapes creating sustainability by lessoning maintenance costs and reducing the
carbon footprint;
4. Creates space for socialization in each Court making it conducive for the residents to get
outside and gather;
5. Part of sustainable green building is not to build more than you need. These units are
sized for the needs of a couple or young family;
6. While units are moderate, they each include a two -car garage to keep vehicles out of the
strong Florida sun, heat and pedestrian gathering area.
7. Landscape trees will create canopy and reduce the heat island effect for the Courts.
As a celebration of the land, there are walking trails with signage throughout both phases of this
development for all to use and enjoy.
Phase Information:
The start date of construction will be 14-16 months based on approval process with construction
of development within 24 months.
History of oroiect:
The property was previously approved in 2006 for a total of 365 dwelling units. There were 265
units at 55' wide lots and 100 units at 70' wide lots with a density of 2.47 du/ac.

Since that previous approval, FDOT has identified SR510 as a road which needs to be widened
and expanded since it is a major evacuation route out to the 1-95 corridor. Design plan are
currently in the works at 60% completion. It will be executed in stages and not yet funded. It is
anticipated that the River Oaks Preserve will be completed prior to the improvements adjacent
to this property.
Additionally, the City of Sebastian has identified a need for connectivity of the city, mainly the
extension of Shakespeare south to SR510 on the east side of the subject property. A property to
the east of our subject project will dedicate 25 feet to this roadway (approximately 720 feet). The
remaining 1270 linear feet will need to have all of the right-of-way on the subject property as the
rest of the adjacent property to the east is in the County and the City has no control.

Environmental Impact Statement
Atlantic Environmental determined that the property supports approximately 128.69 acres of
uplands, +/- 7.19 acres of surface waters, and +/- 10.64 acres of wetlands. These natural
resources must be addressed in the development process, through permitting, avoidance,
mitigation, or some combination thereof. See attached Environmental Assessment report for
complete analysis.
Existinq Tree Statement
The tree canopy of the parcel can be categorized into three different ecosystems:
1. Brazilian Pepper trees over taking the areas previously containing citrus trees for
approximately 80% of the parcel. The Pepper is thick and makes it difficult to get through
without clearing. There are occasional young Laurel Oaks that have volunteered over the

last 10 years. The Applicant plans on keeping or relocating as many quality specimen
trees as possible in hopes of exceeding the City's requirements for tree mitigation.
a. ACTION: Attain permits to remove all Brazilian Pepper and any other exotics.
2. Quality upland: This area consists of Live Oak (primary) with some Slash Pine and Sabal
Palms. The area is 125' of the northeast part of the property, a place where it was
preserved with the prior approval and will be preserved with this submittal. There are
approximately two acres of upland material (65 feet x 1326 feet=1.98 acres) within an
additional buffer of 60' for a total of 3.8 acres.
a. ACTION: No impact to this area other than removing any exotic material.
3. Wetlands: The wetlands contain some invasives, especially along the edges but all native
desirable material will be preserved in place. Restored wetlands will be planted as needed
to provide a quality wetland for the whole area.
a. ACTION: Attain permits to remove exotic material from wetland and wetland
buffer. Restore as required.
Public Facility Impact Statement:
The proposed development is designed to minimally impact the surrounding public facilities. A
private community amenity including a pool with clubhouse and courts are proposed. Schools for
the development will be within Indian River County; Water and sewer services will be provided
by Indian River County Utility Department; Indian River County School — student Generation
Rates.
The development is proposed 352 single-family units with a student generation rate of
145.60 students;
- Elementary — 0.189 x 352 = 66.53

4) Drainage - The proposed grading plan and stormwater management system are
expected to have minimal environmental impact. The proposed project is
intentionally using the existing slough and wetlands for drainage needs to retain
the natural movement of the land. An existing SRID canal easement through the
eastern portion of the land will be modified to allow for a more natural looking
drainage feature while preserving the conveyance of off -site contributing areas
east of the site to the south prong of the Sebastian River. The Applicant and
design team have met twice with SRID in the last 5 months to review SRID
drainage requirements for the site. SRID has provided the relevant hydrologic data
and BGE Inc., the project civil engineer, will continue to work with SRID to
accommodate SRID's drainage requirements for the site. A combination of

interconnected wet detention ponds, with dry ponds to achieve nutrient removal,
will be added to compensate for additional storm runoff.
5) Recreation area - In celebration of the land, over 3.3 miles of natural walking trails
will be available for the general public to use, meandering through the preserved
wetlands and along the South Prong of the river. These trails allow access to these
unique areas, not currently accessible through private property.
Recreation:
Both phases of the development project will have private amenity areas that include pools, a
community building, pickle ball courts and a dog park. Some of the 6' wide trails will be private
and included in the recreation number.
The public recreation amenity includes a public trail system through the project and specifically
along the fork of the Sebastian River. There is no public parking for access to these trails within
this project.
The recreational areas exceed the recreational requirement.

There will be a mix of larger lots on the north side of the project site to meet the intent of 54-2-
5.11(f)(5).
— Per 54.-2-5.11(f)(5)0 - the average residential lot size for an attached or detached single-
family unit shall not be reduced by less than 75% of the required minimum lot size in the
adjacent single-family residential zoning district. There is no minimum lot size for multiple -
family residential structures, excepting attached single-family units, townhouses, patio
homes, and similar clustering of residential units which shall follow the guidelines as
established above").
Requested Dimensional Considerations:
This section is provided to highlight where the proposed PUD plan varies from straight zoning
requirements while meeting the intent of the comprehensive plan and PUD-R zoning.
Standard Single-family Lots
The proposed lot sizes for the single-family northern lots are in keeping with the previously
approved plan and consistent with the market driven new home development in South and
Central Florida. Since this is a PUD project, the development is looked at as a whole with space
given to preservation/conservation and quality open space which can be shared by all. River
Oaks creates a unique setting by celebrating the character of the land and water.
The request is for relief to dimensional requirements to lot size dimensions and lot coverage
percentages for the standard single- family product. Please note that there is an increase in the
overall open space.
Standard Single-family Lots:
1. Reduction in lot dimensional criteria
2. Reduction in setbacks (side interior)
Cluster Single-familv Courts
Creating a unique lifestyle which minimizes private outdoor space while enhancing community
outdoor space, the single-family cluster housing as proposed in the Courts brings compact
neighborhoods together around a central courtyard. According to the APA (American Planning
Association) cluster housing promotes physical activity by increasing walking and provides for a
greater sense of community. Per the City's Livability Workshop (February 20, 2020), housing
diversity and compactness are livability features that benefit everyone. By having smaller for -rent
or for -sale homes averaging approximately 1,300 SF (not including the garages) surrounding
each Court, the development provides a much -needed alternative to the typical for -sale homes
located in the northern section of the site (55' wide and 70' wide lots) and neighboring
developments. Each Court will have a signature tree planting in the center of the courtyard which
will allow a shady place to gather, the center of each small neighborhood. Full driveways are not
provided for parking cars so that parked cars will not be part of the court landscape. Each

residence will have a full 2-car garage for their vehicles. To achieve this type of lifestyle, the
Applicant is requesting several waivers from code as part of the PUD.
As part of the Conceptual Plan for the Planned Unit Development -Residential (PUD-R), the
following are dimensional requirements as set by the PUD-R which includes minimum lot size,
width, depth being requested. For reference, the size and dimension criteria for the PUD-R are
as follows. Please note that there is an increase in the minimum open space area. Cluster Court
Lots:
1. Reduction in lot dimensional criteria
2. Reduction in setbacks (front, side interior and rear)
3. Increase in lot coverage and impervious area

Requested Dimensional Considerations:
Overall PUD
There is one request on the overall PUD to not require sidewalks on both sides of the extension
of Shakespeare for that portion of which the Applicant will be building the road within their
dedicated 50' right-of-way. Since the Applicant is donating this land and building a road for the
City, and as the adjacent neighboring land is in agriculture, the Applicant is requesting that the 8'
bike lake be built only on the west side. The Shakespeare expansion will occur in two phases
divided at a point just north of the east entry into the project as follows:
PHASING FOR STREET CONSTRUCTION
Phase 1:
1. Dedicate 720 linear feet of right-of-way 25 feet wide or more (for the transition) for the north
end of Shakespeare extension.
2. Build a one-way road with no curbing or sidewalks as a temporary road in the 25-foot right-
of-way north of the project entry.
3. Dedicate 1270 linear feet of right-of-way 50 feet wide for the south end of Shakespeare
extension.
4. Build the road and curbing associated with this portion from SR 510 north to the eastern
entry of the project.
5. Build the sidewalk for the whole length on the west side of the roadway only.
Phase 2
1. In the future and not a part of this application, the City will finalize the alignment of the north
720 feet and build it.

Public Benefit:
SHAKESPEARE EXPANSION: As public benefit, the Applicant will be donating the land and
building phase 1 of the Shakespeare Road Expansion down to SR 510. The right-of-way will be
50-feet' wide for 1270 linear feet from this property and 720 linear feet of which 25 feet or more

will be from this property at the north end. Twenty-five feet of the width at the northern end will
be provided by the neighboring development under construction. This is a total of 2.21-acre loss
to the development of the property which is going towards public benefit.
The dedication of the right-of-way and building of the road allows the City of Sebastian a
connection to SR510 as another interconnectivity route and generally alleviating traffic pinch
points within the limits of the city.
SR 510 WIDENING: Additionally, FDOT planning and design for the widening of SR510 is a
public benefit that is only made possible through utilizing this site, reducing the actual buildable
land by 3.53 acres. The roadway will be raised quite a bit with the impact of widening the relocated
drainage ditch along the southern boundary to account for the grade change. This too reduces
the buildable area of the site and significantly increases cost to the Applicant.
As of the filing of the Conceptual Plan, the latest FDOT plans have been incorporated and are
shown on the site plan. FDOT was unaware of the City's desire to extend Shakespeare and
therefore will be looking to modify that connection in consideration of this and proposed activity
on the south side of the road. They will also re-evaluate left turn/u-turn locations now in light of
this project.
TRAILS: Trails will be available for walking throughout the community promoting connectivity
through Sebastian and Indian River County. The trails will be laid out in the additional 25' buffer
of the 50' wetland buffer required by the city in those areas surrounding the wetlands. There will
be minimum to no impact to the DEP 25' wetland buffer. Other parts of the trail system surround
the proposed drainage areas and along the west and north expanded buffer. Trail surface will be
compacted limestone base or other minimally impacting process that is consistent with the City's
proposed Sustainable Park Design Policy (6-1.1.14 — Comprehensive Plan 2040). Moreover, the
Applicant intends to directly connect the trail system to public sidewalks located on SR 510 and
the Shakespeare extension.
OPEN SPACE LOT MINIMUM: The open space has been decreased on each lot to 30% for the
standard lots and 33% for the Court lots noting that unscreened pool and patio areas are
included. This is balanced out by the overall open space requirements.
OPEN SPACE OVERALL: The total site more than exceeds the City's requirement for open
space by more than 14 acres. Out of 143.83 net acres, about 84.33 acres (57%) will be open
space which leads to celebrating the uniqueness of this piece of land with accessibility for the
general public and the residents.
DENSITY: The project is not maximizing the density of the site which is a benefit for the City of
Sebastian. As part of the comprehensive plan, 3 units per acre are allowed which equals 441
units on this property. The request is for a density of 2.40 units.
INCREASED CONNECTIVITY: The Applicant has designed the southern portion of the site (the
Courts) to be non -gated. This provides a unique opportunity for increased vehicular and
pedestrian connectivity through the site from Shakespeare extension to SR 510. Furthermore,
there is evidence that non -gated communities increase civic engagement and responsibility of its
residents.
LANDSCAPE BUFFERS: The Applicant is proposing landscape buffers beyond the required
width. The following describe the buffers:

• Northwest and part of the West: The buffer has been increased from 25' to 50' with a trail
system. These lots are the standard single-family lots.
• Northeast: There is a preservation of 125 feet of an oak and sabal palm hammock.
• East: This is the area where road extension will occur. There is the standard 25' buffer
with a (required) sidewalk meandering within both the right-of-way and the buffer.
• South: The south side has the required 25' buffer which sits beyond the drainage
easement which functions as additional buffer from the roadway.
• West: The majority of the west side is comprised of wetlands with the required 50' buffer.
The 25' landscape buffer falls within this system and therefore not required.

RE: River Oaks Preserve PUD — SRID Proposed Release Agreement
Dear Ms. Bosworth:
For the conceptual design proposed by developer of River Oaks Preserve PUD (River Oaks),
Sebastian River Improvement District (SRID) agrees to review proposed changes to the location
of the original 80-foot right-of-way once such proposed location changes are submitted to SRID.
In its review of the proposed change, at a minimum SRID requires acceptable hydraulic
calculations demonstrating that the project will not discharge greater than 2" of runoff volume per
day during any 24 hour period (from time 0 through hour 72) for the 25 yr. — 24 hr. (9.2 "event),
will meet the maintenance of flood plain storage criteria, will not cause any negative drainage
service to upstream landowners, and other stormwater coordination items. The ongoing
maintenance of any relocated drainage conveyance and accessibility to that conveyance is of
critical concern of SRID. To that end, SRID also requires unimpeded access to the right-of-way by
use of typical equipment currently used by SRID on other District canals and sub -laterals.
Currently, the debris removed from the canals is placed on the canal bank to decay and remain. As
part of a review of this project or other similar projects, SRID requires canal banks of any newly
located right-of-way allow enough unrestricted area for continuation of that debris removal and
maintenance method. If a conservation easement or other type of restrictive covenant exists (or
may be required) where a drainage conveyance is proposed to be located, SRID may not be able
to approve such proposal until the easement or covenant is appropriately addressed.
In the event that River Oaks becomes interested in purchasing a SRID easement and/or right-of-
way, in fee simple, please be advised that SRID has a policy to obtain appraisals acceptable to the
Board of Supervisors for determination of the sale price.
For your information, the Declaration of Restrictive Covenant recorded July 14, 1999, in Official
Records Book 1284, Page 574, of the Public Records of Indian River County, Florida (the
"Declaration"), provided in Paragraph 3.a):
In the event the slough or natural creek which meanders east to west through the
property is filled or for any reason rendered unusable for drainage purposes,
RYALL and TRUSTEES [the prior owners in title at the time] and their successors
in title shall be responsible at their cost for the construction of a new canal in the
80' right-of-way located along the easterly and southerly boundary of the real
property described in Schedules "A", `B-1" and `B-2".
SRID understands that in the future the River Oaks may also submit a request to SRID for the
following:
Termination of the Declaration and the easements established by or related to the
Declaration;
2. The termination of the following easements affecting the River Oaks Preserve PUD:
a. Grant of Easement recorded July 14, 1999, in Official Records Book 1284, Page
557; and
b. Grant of Easement recorded July 14, 1999, in Official Records Book 1284, Page
559, and
C. Grant of Easement recorded July 14, 1999, in Official Records Book 1284, Page
563, the terms of which establish the same two (2) easements; and
3. The termination and relinquishment of the rights in favor of SRID in that sub -lateral right
of way established by Deed Book 32, Page 177 (the "Sublateral"), because this Sublateral:
(a) appears to be unconnected to any functioning drainage system; (b) may have been
abandoned; (c) was established in connection with an intended and now obsolete
agricultural use; and (d) is no longer functional for the proposed residential use.
SRID will review any such requests upon formal submission. In addition to potential existence of
conservation easements, restrictive covenants, hydraulic and other stormwater calculations, SRID

ph 321.676.1505 • fax 321.676.1730
Atlantic Environmental of Florida, LLC (Atlantic Environmental) has completed an environmental
assessment and feasibility study of the above -referenced property, an approximately 146.52-acre
group of parcels located on the north side of County Road 510 in Sebastian, Florida (Figures 1 and
2). The field assessment of this parcel, hereinafter referred to as "the Property", occurred on
March 16 and 17, 2022, with a follow-up visit with St. Johns River Water Management District
(SJRWMD) to review the wetland limits on February 15, 2023. This study is intended to assess
any reasonably ascertainable environmental issues that might influence the developability of the
subject property. Following are the results of our study.
Toaooraphv and Soils
Figure 3 shows the USGS Topographical Map for the Property and surrounding areas. According
to this map, the Property houses a lower -elevated area associated with a tributary of the
Sebastian River on its western edge that makes its way from the northwest edge of the Property
towards the southeast central portion of the Property. This lower area ranges in elevation from
5 feet NGVD on its northwestern side to 15 NGVD in its southeastern portion. The rest of Property
appears to range between 15 and 20 feet NGVD. The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Natural
Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) map for Indian River County (Figure 4) depicts four soil
types underlying the Property. Following is a description for these mapped soil types as they
occur in a natural environment.
Eau Gallie fine sand (3)
The Eau Gallie, non-hydric component makes up 80 percent of the map unit. Slopes are 0 to 2
percent. This component is on flatwoods on marine terraces on coastal plains. The parent material
consists of sandy and loamy marine deposits. This soil is not flooded. It is not ponded. A seasonal
zone of water saturation is at 12 inches during June, July, August, September, October. This soil
does not meet hydric criteria.
Riviera fine sand. 0 to 2 aercent slopes ( 10)
The Riviera component makes up 80 percent of the map unit. Slopes are 0 to 2 percent. This
component is on flatwoods on marine terraces on coastal plains. The parent material consists of
sandy and loamy marine deposits. This soil is not flooded. It is not ponded. A seasonal zone of
22182EA4.27.23.Rpt www.environmentalper -j i,.'��i
water saturation is at 6 inches during June, July, August, September, October. This soil meets
hydric criteria.
Wabasso fine sand (13)
The Wabasso, non-hydric component makes up 70 percent of the map unit. Slopes are 0 to 2
percent. This component is on flatwoods on marine terraces on coastal plains. The parent material
consists of sandy and loamy marine deposits. This soil is not flooded. It is not ponded. A seasonal

The Riviera component makes up 85 percent of the map unit. Slopes are 0 to 1 percent. This
component is on depressions on marine terraces on coastal plains. The parent material consists
of sandy and loamy marine deposits. This soil is not flooded. It is frequently ponded. A seasonal
zone of water saturation is at 0 inches during July, August, September, and October. This soil
meets hydric criteria.
Past development and human activity within and surrounding the Property appears to have
altered some of the characteristics possessed by the underlying soils. However, in general, the
soils underlying the Property appear fairly consistent with the above descriptions.
Veaetation and Community Types
Different combinations of natural and human -influenced factors, such as surface elevation,
hydrology, vegetative species and structure, soil characteristics, and degree and type of historical
disturbance, will give rise to a variety of distinct ecological systems and functions, known as
communities and land uses. The Florida Land Use, Cover, and Forms Classification System
(FLUCFCS) organizes most of the major categories of communities and land uses into particular
descriptions, each corresponding to a different code number. Using our field observations and
the FLUCFCS system as a guideline, Atlantic Environmental has identified four on -site
communities as they currently exist on the Property. Figure 5 depicts the location and associated
code number of the on -site FLUCFCS categories; specifically, Abandoned Groves (FLUCFCS Code
number 224), Streams and Waterway (510), Reservoirs less than 10 acres (534), and Mixed
Wetland Hardwoods (617).
Following is a description of these classifications, as they exist on the Property, along with an
assessment of the jurisdictional wetland status based on the rules and regulations of the SJRWMD
and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE). In December 2020, the Florida Department of
Environmental Protection (FDEP) took over a significant portion of the Section 404 federal
permitting from USACE. The jurisdictional status of FDEP will also be referenced below.
22182EA4.27.23.Rpt
Abandoned Groves(224)
A majority (approximately 126.89 acres) of the Property is comprised of abandoned citrus groves.
Here, the beds and furrows of the past citrus operation are still evident and the vegetation within
the beds is dominated by Brazilian pepper, laurel oak, cabbage palm, wax myrtle, Australian pine,
caesarweed, guineagrass, cogongrass, and poison ivy. This community is an upland and will
require no wetland permitting or mitigation. With this having been said, SJRWMD and FDEP may
claim some of the relic furrows as surface waters. If so, impacts to these surface waters will
require permits but no mitigation for impact.
Mixed Hardwoods (438)
An area dominated by mixed hardwoods is located within the northeast corner of the site. This
+1.80-acre area is dominated by live oak and laurel oak with lesser amounts of cabbage palm,
Brazilian pepper, wax myrtle, and guineagrass. This community is an upland and will require no
wetland permitting or mitigation.
Streams and Waterways (510)
There are several -larger ditch systems that extend through the Property which are overgrown,
ultimately flow off -site, and total approximately 6.19 acres. Some of these ditches appear to have
been historic tributaries of the South Prong of the Sebastian River which were reconfigured when
the Property was converted to citrus groves. Vegetation within these ditches is dominated by
giant leather fern, primrose willow, and Carolina willow. SJRWMD and FDEP will assert jurisdiction
over these surface waters and, therefore, will require a permit for proposed impacts. However,
no mitigation should be required within the banks of these surface waters.
Reservoirs less than 10 acres (534)
A man-made pond is located within the northwestern extent of the Property. This pond
encompasses approximately 1.00 acre. Cattails are present within the center of the pond and
vegetation along the banks dominated by Carolina willow, Brazilian pepper, wax myrtle, primrose
willow, red maple, duck potato, and giant leather fern. SJRWMD will claim this pond as a surface
water requiring permits for impact. Mitigation may be required if surface water impacts are
greater than 1 acre and SJRWMD determines that this surface water provides sufficient wildlife
habitat value.
Mixed Wetland Hardwoods (617)
Forested wetlands are present within the western and central portions of the Property. These
wetlands are part of the historic tributary and/or floodplain of the South Prong of the Sebastian
River. The on -site wetland totals approximately 10.64 acres. Vegetation is dominated by Brazilian
pepper, cabbage palm, red maple, American elm, laurel oak, Carolina willow, shield fern, giant
leather fern, Virginia chain fern, swamp fern, shiny coffee, and poison ivy. SJRWMD and FDEP
will assert jurisdiction over these wetlands and require the acquisition of permits and the provision
of mitigation for any proposed impacts.
The wetlands north of the existing pond (listed above under category 534) in the northwest corner
of the Property appear to be larger than they may have been historically. Atlantic Environmental
located a free flowing well within this area that appears to have been flowing for years and
increasing the ground and surface waters volumes in this area. Exacerbating the problem, the
old citrus beds and furrows were levelled within this area in or around 2005 which appears to
have lowered the elevations, or at least allowed the waters flowing from this well to no longer be
22182EA4.27.23.Rpt
channelized and therefore spread over the ground's surface. The ground disturbance and added
water from the well have allowed for wetland vegetation to become more dominant in this area
and therefore contributes to the ability of the regulatory agencies to claim these areas as
jurisdictional wetlands. As you are aware, the well was capped in 2022 and it is possible this
wetland area could contract in the future if the water continues to recede.
Habitat Potential for Protected Wildlife SDecies
A preliminary survey for listed species and suitable listed species habitats was completed on the
Property. This survey resulted in the determination that the Property provides suitable foraging
habitat to support the below listed species found in east central Florida and the Treasure Coast.
Wading Birds
Wading birds, including little blue herons, tricolored herons, sandhill cranes, and wood storks,
depend on freshwater marshes and shorelines for foraging and typically roost in forested wetland
systems. It is possible that any or all of these birds use the on -site surface waters and wetlands
from time to time on an opportunistic foraging basis. However, the preliminary survey did not
indicate that any of the above listed protected wading bird species are using the Property in a way
that is significantly dependent upon on -site habitat. No nests of any of the listed species were
observed on the Property, and no signs of these species were noted. SJRWMD may consider portions
of the on -site pond as suitable foraging habitat for wood stork. If so and if impacts to suitable wood
stork foraging habitat are greater than 0.50 acres, then mitigation could be required. Mitigation could
include the creation of suitable foraging habitat around created stormwater ponds that equal at least
the same acreage of impact.
Go[)her Tortoise
Gopher tortoises are state listed as a threatened species. These species require three environmental
conditions: well drained loose soil in which to burrow, adequate low -growing herbs for food, and
open sunlit sites for nesting. While on -site with SJRWMD, Atlantic Environmental observed a
secondary sign (i.e., scat) of tortoise inhabitance in the southwestern portion of the Property. As
such, Atlantic Environmental recommends having a formal 100% gopher tortoise survey
completed prior to clearing/development. Prior to impacts, the acquisition of a permit will be
required from the FWC should this species be inhabiting the Property. The cost of relocating can
be discussed after a survey is completed and the number of potential tortoises is found. Due to
the poor -quality habitat, Atlantic Environmental can safely state that the tortoise population here
will be low, if present at all.
Wetlands
The wetland limits on the Property were approved by SJRWMD on February 15, 2023. Wetlands,
including those located on the Property, are protected by state, federal, and/or local government
rules against impacts from development. Should development be proposed which would affect these
natural resources, permits authorizing these impacts would be needed, and mitigation for alterations
to these wetlands can be required. Following is a general discussion of mitigation alternatives that
may be applicable to the wetlands proposed to be impacted by development of the Property.
Prior to impacting a wetland on a particular piece of property it is required that all efforts have been
made to eliminate wetland impacts. If elimination of wetland impacts is not practicable, it is then
22182EA4.27.23.Rpt
required that site development alternatives are considered that reduce wetland impacts. This
elimination and reduction exercise will be required should impacts to wetlands be proposed on the
Property.
Once it has been determined that all reasonable efforts have been made to reduce wetland impacts,
the wetland regulatory agencies will consider compensation for wetland impacts through
compensatory mitigation. Although mitigation can take on many forms, mitigation usually consists
of restoration, enhancement, creation, or preservation of wetlands, other surface waters, or uplands.
However, the federal government (i.e., USACE/FDEP via the State 404 Program) will not accept
straight preservation (of wetlands or uplands) as a valid form of mitigation; some form of wetland
improvement (enhancement, restoration, or creation) must be provided. Furthermore, FDEP will not
typically accept invasive species eradication as the sole form of compensatory mitigation.
The amount of compensatory mitigation required is determined by the amount of biological lift
needed to offset the proposed impacts. The quantity of biological lift required is dependent on the
acreage of proposed wetland impact, the location and landscape support of the proposed impact
site, the habitat value of the proposed impact site, the functionality of -the proposed impact site, as
well as the vegetative and hydrologic quality of wetlands proposed for impact.
To determine the amount of biological lift provided by a mitigation site, an applicant must take into
account all of the above criteria, as the mitigation site exists prior to mitigation action, and determine
how the proposed mitigation action will biologically improve the mitigation site. If the biological lift
provided by completing the mitigation action outweighs the biological loss incurred by the proposed
impact, the regulatory agencies are expected to permit the proposed project.
As for this particular site, SJRWMD and FDEP will require that efforts be made to reduce wetland
impacts to the greatest extent possible. Once such efforts have been made and proven to the
regulatory agencies, an applicant can then propose impacts to wetlands in conjunction with providing
compensatory mitigation for such impacts. With this having been said, if an applicant were to employ
one of the SJRWMD out -provisions in which mitigation were offered that has a greater long-term
ecological value than that of the wetlands proposed for impact and mitigation that implements all or
part of a plan that provides regional ecological value, one could bypass SJRWMD's elimination and
reduction criteria. One method to employ this out -provision is to provide mitigation from a permitted
mitigation bank. Atlantic Environmental estimates mitigation costs to range from approximately
$125,000.00 to $150,000.00 for each acre of wetland impact.
Permit History
A SJRWMD permit (4-061-93332-1) was issued for a single-family subdivision on this Property in
2004 and subsequently expired in 2010, with only land clearing work being initiated while the permit
was valid. This permit authorized 0.44 acres of wetland impact as well as impacts to some of the
on -site surface waters. On -site mitigation was proposed which involved wetland creation,
enhancement, and preservation. At the time of permitting, there were no available mitigation banks
servicing this area. Another SJRWMD permit (4-061-93332-3) was issued in 2008 for a single-family
subdivision which expired in 2013 with no work being initiated. The same 0.44 acres of wetland
impacts were proposed. However, the on -site mitigation changed slightly since it was discovered
that a portion of the on -site ditches were within a drainage easement dedicated to the Sebastian
Water Control District. The District required the ditches to be actively maintained since a larger off-
22182EA4.27.23. Rpt
site drainage basin flowed through the these ditches. Atlantic Environmental recommends working
With a civil engineer to determine what impacts can occur to the on -site surface waters.
Conclusions
Atlantic Environmental determined that the Property supports approximately 128.69 acres of
uplands, ±7.19 acres of surface waters, and ±10.64 acres of wetlands. These natural resources
must be addressed in the development process, through permitting, avoidance, mitigation, or some
combination thereof. One could expect to spend $125,000.00 to $150,000.00 for each acre of
wetland impact. With this having been, the City of Sebastian has more stringent rules that dictate
allowable impacts to tributaries of the Sebastian River. As such, we recommend working with
Sebastian staff to ensure proposed wetland impacts and upland buffers are permittable.
As the next step in the development process as it relates to environmental issues should you choose
to pursue the development of this Property, Atlantic Environmental can assist in the wetland
permitting process and coordinate with the respective regulatory agencies to secure approved
permits and mitigation. Lastly, a 100 percent gopher tortoise survey should be completed to
determine the number of tortoises that may need to be relocated on the Property prior to site
development.
Should you have any questions or need additional information, please do not hesitate to contact our
office.

Re: River Oaks Preserve, Sebastian, FL
Dear Mr. Brown:
O'Rourke Engineering & Planning (O'REP)-has prepared the traffic engineering statement for the
River Oaks development. River oaks is proposed for 352 single family detached dwelling units to
be located on CR 510 in Sebastian, Florida (Indian River County). Attachment 1 illustrates the
project location.
Trip Generation / Project Assignment
The trip generation was calculated using ITE Trip Generation 11t' Edition. The project will
generate 3,212 daily trips, 257 AM peak hour trips and 335 PM peak hour trips. Attachment 2
summarizes the project trip generation.
The project distribution and assignment were developed based on the ultimate location of origins
and destinations. Attachment 3 illustrates the project assignment.
Link Analysis — CR 510
The impacts of the project on CR 510 were summarized for the AM and PM peak hours for the
existing condition and for the post widening condition. Attachment 4 summarizes the results and
includes the data that went into the summary. The FDOT 2020 LOS tables were used to establish
level of service. As noted, the level of service is C in the existing condition and will remain level
of service C in post development, post widening condition.
