All having indicated that they had read the Minutes of the regular meeting of August 1,
2024, Ms. Kautenburg called for a motion. A motion approving the Minutes of August 1,
2024 as presented was made by Ms. Battles, seconded by Ms. Matthews, and approved
unanimously via voice vote.
VI. Local Planninq Aqencv (LPA) Public Hearinqs -- None
VII. New Business.
A. Accessory Structure Review -- LDC Section 54-2-7.5 -- 197 Delmar Street-
506 SF Detached Garage -- Scott & Donna Huff
Ms. Bosworth stated that this item is an accessory structure review for 197 Delmar Street,
a 506-square-foot detached garage, for Scott and Donna Huff.
Mr. Chris Pinson, 481 Avocado Avenue, Sebastian, introduced himself as representing
Mr. Huff. Mr. Huff' could not be here tonight, as he had to go out of town. Mr. Pinson
stated that Mr. Huff is proposing an accessory structure on a second lot that he owns,
which is tied together through title with his existing house. The garage is a metal building,
and it actually exceeds the 500 square footage dimensions by 6 feet due to the contract
that he made with the metal building company. Reducing it to meet the 500 square
footage dimensions would reduce the square footage by 120 square feet. The
construction company did not offer anything in between. The owner has met all efforts to
at least meet some of the criteria if the building was to exceed 500 square feet with color
swatches that Mr. Pinson has here tonight. The colors that Mr. Huff has chosen match
the trim of the house. This lot is located in a very heavily wooded area. He does not have
any plans to clear it, and it sits as far back on the property as it possibly can. So Mr.
Pinson is here to ask if the 6 feet would be excused as far as the accessory structure is
concerned. The other challenge that Mr. Huff has is that it is a red brick house. Brick
facades on metal buildings are difficult to do. Mr. Pinson said the slab has already been
poured for the accessory building. He asked for any questions or concerns the
Commissioners have. There being no Commissioners' questions, Ms. Kautenburg called
on staff for their report.
Ms. Bosworth stated that, as Mr. Pinson said, only because of 5 square feet is this item
before the Commission. She stated that 750 square feet is the threshold that says you
have to match the house exactly. If it is over that size, Mr. Huff would have to put bricks
PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION/LOCAL PLANNING AGENCY PAGE 3
MINUTES OF REGULAR MEETING
OCTOBER 3, 2024
somehow on this building. However, it is in the 501-750 feet that says it has to be very
similar to the house. Staff is fine with the size, and it meets all the setbacks. Staff wanted
to get it as close as possible to some of the paint colors being similar to the house. The
homeowner is requesting to paint it sandstone, which is more of a beige. That would be
up to the Commissioners. They also have an alternative color that is kind of red. Brick is
a hard color to match. Mr. Pinson did say that there is a lot of vegetation on the lot, and
you are probably not going to see a lot of it from the road. Staff is all right with the
Commissioners deciding which color scheme to go with. She asked that Mr. Pinson state
how high this garage will be so that it is on the record. Mr. Pinson stated that the total
height of the garage is 13 feet. The house elevation is 3 feet higher than the actual
garage, so it is going to be well under the threshold of the height of the house.
Ms. Bosworth stated that on Page 3 of the Staff Report the recommended conditions for
approval are as follows.
1. Submittal of an Auxiliary Driveway Permit application
2. Submittal of a Land Clearing/Tree Removal Permit application
3. Submittal of a Tax Combine Form to the Property Appraiser's Office to
create one tax parcel (Unity of Title has already been recorded.)
Ms. Matthews asked how much of this lot Mr. Huff is going to clear. Mr. Pinson stated
that Mr. Huff is only leaving access for the driveway and the building, and there will be a
driveway to the building.
Ms. Geesey referred on Page 2, Item 3c, she was confused. Ms. Bosworth explained
that item.
Ms. Kinchen asked if the owners are going to use the red color. Mr. Pinson said that the
owner is proposing to use the sandstone color.
Ms. Battles suggested adding a condition that the accessory structure is not taller than
the house. Ms. Bosworth stated staff can verify based on the information that is available
that the house is 14 feet, and Mr. Pinson has stated for the record that the accessory
structure is 13 feet. Staff is comfortable stating that it will meet that condition.
There being no further comments/questions, Ms. Kautenburg called for a motion. A
motion approving the accessory structure review (LDC) Section 54-2-7.5 for 197 Delmar
Street for the addition of a garage with the conditions recommended on Page 3 of the

B. Accessory Structure Review -- LDC Section 54-2-7.5 -- 474 Periwinkle Drive
-- 748 SF Detached Garage -- David & Penny Robinson
Ms. Bosworth stated this is an accessory structure review request for 474 Periwinkle
Drive. This is for a 748-square-foot detached garage. David and Penny Robinson are
the homeowners. Ms. Kautenburg called on the homeowners to present their request.
David and Penny Robinson identified themselves, and Ms. Robinson said they are
requesting approval for an accessory building. It is a metal building. They know that they
have to match the color to the house. They have an engineer drawing on how to attach
stucco to this metal building, and to make sure that the colors match the home as it is.
She stated that they want to use the building to store a boat, a kayak, and some lawn
items. There is access on the side of the house from the current driveway. She said they
use that area now to get tree limbs, etc. discarded. Ms. Kautenburg called on staff for
their report.
Ms. Bosworth stated this request is for an accessory structure measuring 748 square feet.
This is not a double lot; this is a large single lot on Periwinkle. According to the survey,
they will meet all setbacks. She stated that according to staff's review, they meet all the
requirements, and the only two additional considerations that staff has are that when the
roof is painted, they bring in the specific color so that staff can verify that it will be close
to the house. Also, based on one of the pictures that staff has, as you drive past their
property you can see that it is very narrow between a palm tree and a meter box and the
air conditioner. Staff was not privy as to what size boat or trailer they have to get
something back here, and staff was concerned that they might encroach onto the
neighbor's property to get back there, Mr. Robinson said that the area is narrow at the
very beginning, and it gets wider, at an angle, going back through there. Ms. Bosworth
PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION/LOCAL PLANNING AGENCY PAGE 5
MINUTES OF REGULAR MEETING
OCTOBER 3, 2024
stated that staff recommends approval of the request, with sandstone being the color to
match the house. Ms. Kautenburg called for questions/comments from the
Commissioners.
Ms. Matthews asked if the homeowners are currently driving back there now. Mr.
Robinson stated they are, and there are no issues now. He stated that they are not on
the neighbors' property when they drive through the area.
Ms. Kautenburg asked if there is an easement that will be used. The homeowners stated
there is not an easement. Ms. Kautenburg asked if the ground is stable enough for the
vehicles. Mr. Robinson said yes.
Ms. Bosworth said that staff recommends approval with the condition that they bring staff
in the proposed paint color for the roof in order to get it as close as possible to the paint
color that is on the house.
There being no further questions/comments, Ms. Kautenburg called for a motion. A
motion approving the accessory structure for David and Penny Robinson at 474
Periwinkle Street with the condition that they bring into staff paint colors to be approved
for the roof was made by Ms. Lorusso and seconded by Mr. Carter.

MINUTES OF REGULAR MEETING
OCTOBER 3, 2024
Ms. Kautenburg stated that Ms. Battles, because the company she works with has done
work on this project, will step down and excuse herself. Because we have one of our
alternate members here, Mr. Terry Reno, he will be stepping up to vote in her place.
Ms. Bosworth explained that, on some of the City's projects, especially when the City did
not have a City Engineer, some of the City's site plans are reviewed with Consulting
Engineers. Ms. Battles' firm was the original Consulting Engineer on that project. So,
there is the financial element that state statute requires her to step down since her
company has benefitted financially from that involvement.
Ms. Kautenburg opened the hearing. Ms. Bosworth read the item into the record as set
forth above. Ms. Kautenburg asked if any of the Commissioners have ex parte
communications or conflicts that they need to disclose other than Ms. Battles. All
Commissioners stated they do not. Ms. Bosworth stated that staff and the Project
Engineer and the applicant do not have to fill out the speaker cards on the table in the
rear. Attorney Mai swore in (via Zoom) all who from the audience would be speaking on
this matter.
Ms. Kautenburg called on the applicant to make their presentation. Angelina Vitter, PE,
MBV Engineering, Inc., identified herself as representing the applicant and owner of the
project. She stated that the owner/applicant are in agreement with the conditions that
have been placed. She called for comments/questions.
Ms. Bosworth stated that staff has given the Commissioners copies and plans for the
proposed project. The Staff Report basically mimics all the requirements that come from
the City's Land Development Code that the site had to meet. She reviewed some of the
items and then stated the conditions of approval. She described where the property is
and what the proposed project would entail. She went through the Staff Report, including
the additional considerations listed on Page 6 and the recommendations listed on Page
8. She stated that per Page 3 of the Staff Report, this project does meet the required
setbacks. She also noted that on Page 3 of the Staff Report there is a scrivener's error
where it lists side setbacks. Where it says west, it should say east. She added that, even
though the site setback is 10 feet, one of the conditional use criteria is that a building has
to be 30 feet from any residential adjacent property. They did meet that requirement.
With regards to the Conditional Use Permit, on Page 6 the criteria are met except for No.
A (2) that says that the curb cuts for the driveways —one on Cleveland Street and one on
US1—shall be limited to a maximum width of 50 feet and shall be located no closer than
35 feet removed from the property line. The US1 driveway meets that requirement; the
PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION/LOCAL PLANNING AGENCY PAGE 7
MINUTES OF REGULAR MEETING
OCTOBER 3, 2024
one on Cleveland is actually 30.6 feet. If they were to move that to meet the requirement,
they would have to redesign Cleveland Street where there is some stamped parking.
There is also a decorative streetlight and a palm tree. All of three of those items would
have to be moved around. She stated that if the commissioners are okay with them being
4.4 feet from the required dimensions, that should be a part of the motion if they would
like to waive that condition that that driveway can remain as it is presently. Ms.
Kautenburg called for questions/comments from the Commissioners.
Mr. Carter -- Regarding the drive -up windows, he asked about the traffic flow there. Mr.
Danny Figueiredo described how that will be handled, and Ms. Bosworth described how
that traffic flow was arrived at. Mr. Carter said that he wishes the design of the building
would adhere to more of the fishing village theme that is mandated for certain areas in
the City. Ms. Bosworth described what the construction and amenities will be. She stated
that this does meet the Code for what is in the Riverfront Overlay District requirements
Ms. Geesey -- She is impressed with the presentation and the plans. She thinks that it
will be a good addition to the neighborhood. Her main concern is the rear opaque buffer.
She said she would defer to the townhouse tenants and what they want. Ms. Vitter said
they are comfortable with the fencing in either location.
Ms. Kinchen -- She asked how long this project will take. There was no discussion.
Ms. Lorusso -- Her question is in regards to the two retail units. She asked what type
of retail can go in and how it would affect the parking figures. Ms. Bosworth said it can
be any type of retail. By using the retail for the parking calculations, they have calculated
the most intense uses on the site and will have adequate parking.
Ms. Matthews -- She asked for an explanation of the drive -through lane as she is
confused about that. Ms. Vitter explained that item in detail.
Ms. Kautenburg -- She does not have as much issue with the speaker systems as she
does with the big trucks with the diesel engines that sit there and roar while they are
waiting on their orders.
Ms. Kautenburg opened the floor to anyone who wished to speak in favor of this request.
There being none, Ms. Kautenburg opened the floor to anyone who is opposed to the
request.
PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION/LOCAL PLANNING AGENCY PAGE 8
MINUTES OF REGULAR MEETING
OCTOBER 3, 2024
Joe Whitaker -- He is the President of River Oaks Townhomes which are to the east of
this property. He asked where precisely the drive-in windows are and where do they
border the property. Ms. Vitter placed the drawing on the screen which showed the entire
property. Mr. Whitaker stated the only concern the residents of the townhomes have is
the noises of ordering the items and the repeating back of what the order is -- whether
that is going to be facing the townhomes. Ms. Vitter said there will be a buffer installed
on that side of the property. Mr. Whitaker said the residents are opposed to being able to
hear the speakers with orders being repeated to the customers. Ms. Kautenburg asked
Mr. Whitaker if the association would prefer looking at a fence or looking at shrubbery.
Mr. Whitaker said a fence.
Robert Cox, River Oaks Townhomes -- He has owned that property since 2018. He
appreciates small businesses bringing their businesses to the community. His concern is
the amount of noise involved with this business. He stated that he does not think any of
the residents in the townhomes are opposed to building and progress, but they want to
make sure that their rights as homeowners are considered so they can maintain some
sort of quaint fishing village flavor.
Mr. Figueiredo replied that they will do their best to comply and not be a nuisance to the
neighborhood behind us them. The Dunkin' Donuts has been there for 25 years already.
He is aware that it will be a big change. They are going to demolish the old building and
put something in that is within the code to the fishermen's style landscape that they have.
They will do everything they can to comply and be good neighbors.
Mr. Carter spoke as to the fencing and an additional sound barrier. Ms. Bosworth pointed
out on the site plan that there will be a lot of foundation planting. They are planting a lot
of additional trees, so there will be some buffering. She suggested that staff could require
some additional landscaping in the area where the sod is being proposed that would act
as a noise buffer also. There is room; she did verify that. It could be a condition of
approval, or if you want to talk about an 8-foot fence, that could be a consideration also
that would help with the noise. She also suggested, the closer we get some landscaping
to the actual sound and where it may be coming from, that it may be a better buffer than
the fence.
Ms. Bosworth stated that staff does feel that this proposed project meets all the
requirements, and staff is recommending approval with the 4 recommended conditions of
approval on page 8, along with a number 5, which would state "Additional landscaping
shall be planted as a noise buffer that runs along the easternmost drive aisles." That
could be made as an additional condition unless a higher fence is desired.

MINUTES OF REGULAR MEETING
OCTOBER 3, 2024
Ms. Kautenburg asked the Commissioners for additional questions/comments.
Mr. Reno stated that he thinks the additional landscaping would be better than a taller
fence. All of the other Commissioners were in agreement with Mr. Reno.
There being nothing further on this item, Ms. Kautenburg closed the hearing and called
for a motion. A motion approving the site plan major modification and conditional use
permit for Dunkin' Donuts, 900 U.S. Highway #1, 4810 square feet, multi -unit commercial
building with associated site improvements, restaurant with drive -through facility + 2 retail
units, RMU (Riverfront Mixed Use) land use, CR (Commercial Riverfront Zoning District.
In addition, he included the 5 conditions that staff recommends, which would include the
4 listed plus the additional landscaping in the buffered zone, as well as the conditional
use permit application to be approved with the waiver which would allow the existing
Cleveland Street driveway to remain at 30.6 feet from the property line instead of the
required 35 feet was made by Mr. Carter and seconded by Ms. Kinchen.

south of Spring Valley Ave, West of Alexis St and East of the Schumann Waterway.
Existing residential surrounds the property to the south and west. The property is
vacant. The subject property was originally platted at Tract N on the Sebastian
Highlands Unit 17 plat that was developed by General Development Corporation in
September of 1970. The property has changed hands multiple times through the
years, until it was purchased by the current owner in 2003, more than twenty years
ago. The applicant is requesting a change in the Future Land Use from Institutional
to Low Density Residential which is in alignment with the surrounding neighborhood.
Small Scale Amendments are defined by statute to be 50 acres or fewer and limited
to FLUM changes for site -specific small scale development activities only. The State
land planning agency does not require a review however the amendment does not
become effective until 31 days after adoption by the local government. This
amendment will be transmitted to the DEO upon adoption by COS city council.

LDR
a. Chanced Conditions: The proposed change of land use to a low
density residential is consistent with the current surrounding land
uses. This designation will provide suitable uses for potential future
developments.
b. Land Use Compatibility: The Low -Density Residential land use is
established to implement policies and performance standards uses
which are compatible with the City of Sebastian current and future
land use along this corridor.
Policy 1-1.2.2: Low Density Residential Development. Areas
designated as Low Density shall accommodate a maximum density
of up to five (5) dwelling units per acre and shall be comprised
primarily of single family detached homes on individual lots and
attached residential homes.
C. Conformance with Ordinances: The proposal is in conformance with
applicable substantive requirements of the Code of Ordinances and
Land Development Code, and no changes to these ordinances are
required at this time due to this request.
d. Adequate Public Facilities: Public facilities requirements for this
proposed land use and rezoning must be provided with any proposed
development. The property is within the current service boundary for
water and public safety.
e. Natural Environment: An environmental assessment of the subject
property will be required as part of development application. All
natural resource protection measures, including tree protection,
wetlands, and listed species, will be required as part of the permitting
and development process.
f. Economic Effect: The property is currently undeveloped and there
are no current active uses. The proposed Future Land Use
Amendment to Low Density Residential will allow for single family
homes to be built which in turn will bolster the local economy.
g. Orderly Development: The proposed land use change is consistent
with the Land Development Code and provides an orderly
development pattern.
h. Public Interest: The proposed change in land use does not appear
to be in conflict with the public interest and is in harmony with the
purpose and intent of the City of Sebastian Comprehensive Plan
2040 and Land Development Code.
8. Conclusion:
The requested land use change from Institutional to Low Density
Residential is consistent with the Future Land Use Map and staff supports
a recommendation of approval to the City Council from the Land Planning
Agency.

Sebastian Highlands Unit 17
(All of Tract N)
Future Land Use & Rezoning Statement
Property Description:
The proposed application includes a Future Land Use Amendment and Rezoning for 3.96 acres located
within Sebastian Highlands. The site is located adjacent to Day Drive, between Alexis Street and Maltz
Avenue. The area included in the referenced application currently consists of one (1) individually platted
lot, as created by the Sebastian Highlands Unit 17 plat. The site is currently vacant land, consisting
mostly of brush and woods. Based on a previous environmental assessment, no wetlands were found on -
site. However, the assessment did determine the presence of several active gopher tortoise burrows. Prior
to development, all Florida Wildlife Commission (FWC) requirements for mitigation will be followed.
Legal description:
All of Tract N
Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map Designation:
• Current land use map designation: Institutional (0.6 FAR)
• Proposed land use map designation: Low Density Residential (5 du/ac)
Single-family residential areas with minimum lot sizes of 10,000 square feet provide spacious living
environments tailored to those seeking a balance between privacy and community. These neighborhoods
feature strictly single-family homes, offering ample outdoor space for recreational activities, gardening,
and family gatherings. This setting is particularly appealing to families who desire a suburban atmosphere
with room to grow.
The focus on single-family homes in these areas helps maintain a low -density, quiet environment,
fostering a stable community where residents often form long-term connections. This type of
development attracts homeowners looking for a peaceful, private lifestyle, contributing to a cohesive
community fabric. The generous lot sizes support diverse landscaping and outdoor amenities, enhancing
the neighborhood's aesthetic appeal and livability.
By catering primarily to families and those seeking more personal space, single-family residential areas
with larger lots promote a stable and tight -knit community. This environment fosters a sense of ownership
and pride among residents, supporting a robust, resilient community dynamic that encourages long-term
investment in the local area.
Current and Proposed Zoning:
• Current zoning classification (PS: Public Service).
• Proposed zoning classification (RS-10: Residential Single Family).
In accordance with the City of Sebastian's Comprehensive Plan Table 54-2-4.2, the proposed zoning (RS-

Sec. 54-1-2.9. Procedures for amending comprehensive plan.
(c) Planning and zoning commission review. *****
In deliberating, the commission shall consider the following:
(1) Consistency with other elements of plan. Whether the proposal is consistent with the other elements
of the comprehensive plan. The commission shall identify any inconsistencies. The proposed rezoning
aligns with the City of Sebastian's Comprehensive Plan, specifically the goals for low -density
residential areas. By changing the Future Land Use designation from Institutional to Low Density
Residential, the proposal supports the city's emphasis on providing spacious, family -oriented
residential communities. The single-family homes planned for the site are consistent with the city's
vision for neighborhoods that foster stability, privacy, and a suburban atmosphere.
(2) Conformance with ordinances. Whether the proposal is in conformance with any applicable
substantive requirements of the City of Sebastian Code of Ordinances, particularly the land
development code, and/or whether the proposed amendment will require amendments to any
ordinances of the city. The rezoning request from Public Service (PS) to Residential Single Family (RS-
20) complies with applicable sections of the City of Sebastian Code of Ordinances and the Land
Development Code. No amendments to existing ordinances are anticipated, as RS-10 zoning is
compatible with the requested Low Density Residential land use, per Table 54-2-4.2 of the
Comprehensive Plan.
(3) Changed condition. Whether, and the extent to which, land use and development conditions have
changed since the effective date of the existing regulations involved which are relevant to the
proposed amendment. Since the original zoning designation, development patterns in Sebastian
Highlands have evolved to emphasize residential growth, and nearby areas have increasingly
transitioned to residential use. This trend supports the rezoning request by meeting local demand for
suburban -style, single-family homes that balance open space with community living.
(4) Land use compatibility. Whether, and the extent to which, the proposal would result in any
incompatible land uses, considering the type and location of uses involved. The proposed RS-10 zoning
is compatible with surrounding land uses, which are primarily residential. The rezoning will ensure
that the property harmonizes with neighboring single-family homes, thereby avoiding potential land
use conflicts. The proposal enhances the community character by maintaining low -density
development in line with the area's established residential atmosphere.
(5) Adequate public facilities. Whether, and the extent to which, the proposal would result in public
facilities and services exceeding the capacity for such services and facilities existing or programmed,
including transportation, utilities, drainage, recreation, education, emergency services and similar
necessary facilities and services. The proposed residential use will not exceed the existing or planned
capacity of public facilities and services. The single-family homes envisioned for this development
align with existing infrastructure and utility provisions. Additionally, the area is well -served by roads,
emergency services, utilities, and other facilities needed to support low -density residential
neighborhoods.
(6) Natural environment. Whether, and the extent to which, the proposal would result in significantly
adverse impacts on the natural environment. An environmental assessment found no wetlands on -
site, and impacts to the natural environment are expected to be minimal. The presence of gopher
tortoise burrows has been noted, and all necessary Florida Wildlife Commission (FWC) mitigation
requirements will be observed to protect this species. With these considerations, the project is
structured to avoid adverse impacts on the natural environment.

(7) Economic effects. Whether, and the extent to which, the proposal would adversely affect the property
values in the area, the general health, safety and welfare and impact the financial resources of the city.
The proposed rezoning is expected to have a positive economic effect, with new single-family homes
potentially increasing property values in the area. The development will contribute to the general
welfare of the community by providing housing opportunities that attract residents interested in
long-term investment. Furthermore, the project will likely generate tax revenue, benefiting the city's
financial resources without straining existing services.
(8) Orderly development. Whether the proposal would result in an orderly and local development pattern.
Any negative effects on such patterns shall be identified. The proposal supports an orderly
development pattern by promoting consistent, low -density residential growth in line with nearby
properties. This zoning change encourages a seamless expansion of the residential landscape in
Sebastian Highlands, supporting a well -organized and balanced development strategy for the
community.
(9) Public interest enabling act. Whether the proposal would be in conflict with the public interest, and
whether it is in harmony with the purpose and intent of this chapter and its enabling legislation. The
proposed rezoning is in harmony with the public interest, supporting the city's intent to foster stable,
residential neighborhoods that enhance quality of life. The development aligns with the city's vision
for growth and complies with the enabling legislation by contributing to a cohesive community
environment.

3. Requested Action: Request is for a change from PS (Public Service) to RS-10 (Single
Family Residential)
3. Project Location: Section 19, Township 31 South, Range 39 East
Subject Parcel is 3.96 Acres, More or Less
Parcel # 3139190000100400001.0
Legal: See Attached
4. Project Description
The subject property consists of 3.96 acres, more or less, located north of Day Drive, south of
Spring Valley Ave, West of Alexis St and East of the Schumann Waterway. Existing residential
surrounds the property to the south and west. The property is vacant. The subject property was
originally platted at Tract N on the Sebastian Highlands Unit 17 plat that was developed by
General Development Corporation in September of 1970. The property has changed hands
multiple times through the years, until it was purchased by the current owner in 2003, more than
twenty years ago. The applicant is requesting a rezoning from public service to single family
residential which is in alignment with the surrounding neighborhood. Current land use for this
parcel is Low Density Residential (5 du/ac) as just approved in the previous agenda item. The
current zoning is Public Service. The properties zoning amendment proposal is for Single Family
Residential District (RS-10) which is compatible with the existing future land use as identified in
the City of Sebastian's 2040 comprehensive plan.

a. Chanced Conditions: The proposed change of zoning to a single-family use of RS-10, is
consistent with the current zoning along the corridor. Existing residential development is
adjacent to the property on the south and west. New single family residential is proposed
to the north. To the east is a city stormwater pond. This designation will provide suitable
uses for potential future developments.
b. Land Use Compatibility: The RS-10 (Single Family Residential Sec 54-2-5.2.3) zoning is
intended to permit low -density residential development on lots of 10,000 square feet. The
Future Land Use element Policy 1-1.2.2: states the purpose of the Low Density Residential
Land use designation is to accommodate a maximum density of up to five (5) dwelling units
per acre and shall be comprised primarily of single family detached homes on individual
lots and attached residential homes. The requested rezoning to RS-10 (single Family
Residential) is compatible with the land uses and zoning in this corridor.
c. Conformance with Ordinances: The proposal is in conformance with applicable substantive
requirements of the Code of Ordinances and Land Development Code, and no changes to
these ordinances are required at this time due to this request.
d. Adequate Public Facilities: The property has provided assurance of the availability of
sufficient public access and public facilities. The property is within the current service
boundary for water and public safety. Level of Service standards will be assessed when the
site plan is submitted. In addition the availability to connect to sewer will also be assessed
at the time that development plans are submitted.
e. Natural Environment: An environmental assessment of the subject property will be required
as part of site plan development application. All natural resource protection measures,
including tree protection, wetlands, and listed species, will be required as part of the
permitting and development process.
f. Economic Effect: The property is currently undeveloped and there is no current active
existing uses. The proposed rezoning to Single Family Residential district (RS-10) will allow
for single family homes to be built which in turn bolster the local economy.
g. Orderly Development: The proposed rezoning is consistent with the Land Development
Code and Code of Ordinances.
h. Public Interest: The proposed rezoning does not appear to be in conflict with the public
interest and is in harmony with the purpose and intent of the City of Sebastian
Comprehensive Plan 2040 and Land Development Code.
7. Conclusion:
The requested rezoning from Public Service to RS-10 Single Family Residential is
consistent with the Zoning Map and staff supports a recommendation of approval to the
City Council from the PZ Commission,

Future Land Use & Rezoning Statement
Property Description:
The proposed application includes a Future Land Use Amendment and Rezoning for 3.96 acres located
within Sebastian Highlands. The site is located adjacent to Day Drive, between Alexis Street and Maltz
Avenue. The area included in the referenced application currently consists of one (1) individually platted
lot, as created by the Sebastian Highlands Unit 17 plat. The site is currently vacant land, consisting
mostly of brush and woods. Based on a previous environmental assessment, no wetlands were found on -
site. However, the assessment did determine the presence of several active gopher tortoise burrows. Prior
to development, all Florida Wildlife Commission (FWC) requirements for mitigation will be followed.
Legal description:
All of Tract N
Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map Designation:
• Current land use map designation: Institutional (0.6 FAR)
• Proposed land use map designation: Low Density Residential (5 du/ac)
Single-family residential areas with minimum lot sizes of 10,000 square feet provide spacious living
environments tailored to those seeking a balance between privacy and community. These neighborhoods
feature strictly single-family homes, offering ample outdoor space for recreational activities, gardening,
and family gatherings. This setting is particularly appealing to families who desire a suburban atmosphere
with room to grow.
The focus on single-family homes in these areas helps maintain a low -density, quiet environment,
fostering a stable community where residents often form long-term connections. This type of
development attracts homeowners looking for a peaceful, private lifestyle, contributing to a cohesive
community fabric. The generous lot sizes support diverse landscaping and outdoor amenities, enhancing
the neighborhood's aesthetic appeal and livability.
By catering primarily to families and those seeking more personal space, single-family residential areas
with larger lots promote a stable and tight -knit community. This environment fosters a sense of ownership
and pride among residents, supporting a robust, resilient community dynamic that encourages long-term
investment in the local area.
Current and Proposed Zoning:
• Current zoning classification (PS: Public Service).
Proposed zoning classification (RS-10: Residential Single Family).
In accordance with the City of Sebastian's Comprehensive Plan Table 54-2-4.2, the proposed zoning (RS-
10) is a compatible zoning district with the proposed future land use designation Low Density
Residential.
Disclosure of Ownership:
All parcels included in the future land use and rezoning application are under common ownership by St.
Lucie Development Corporation.
