APPROVAL OF MINUTES: Meeting of 9 -30 -09 Meeting of 10 -28 -09 MOTION by Mr. Hill and SECOND by Ms. Coy to approve both sets of minutes passed on a voice vote of 4 -0. A. QUASI- JUDICIAL PUBLIC HEARING: CHARLES STACHEL, in regards to lot 17, block 336, Sebastian Highlands unit 13, located at 1698 Coral Reef Street, requesting a variance to allow a residential structure to be 16.25 feet from the rear property line, whereas the code requires such structure to be 20 feet from the rear property line. Richard H. Gillmor, Mayor ATTEST: May 12, 2010 Page Two Sally A. Maio, MMC City Clerk The City Attorney read the case title. There was no ex -parte communication to disclose. The City Clerk swore in all who intended to present testimony. The Growth Management Manager explained the variance is a result of an unusual chain of events, whereby the setback met an earlier existing code provision in 1983 when the house was built which provided for a 15 foot setback, then a new LDC provision changed the setback to 20 feet and contained a grandfather clause for structures such as this, an addition was added in 1994 that was carefully positioned and approved, and then a unity of title combined the properties in 2005 and cured the property line encroachment, however, now the property is for sale and dividing the lots to sell separately presents the encroachment problem again. She recommended approval of the variance for the setback. MOTION by Mr. Wolff and SECOND by Mr. Hill to approve the variance. Mayor Gillmor opened the hearing, however, no one spoke in favor or in opposition to the request, nor were there any questions from Council. Result of the roll call: AYES: Hill, Coy, Wolff, Gillmor NAYS: None Motion passed. B. REQUEST FOR EXTENSION OF VARIANCE: SEBASTIAN CHARTER JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL, in regards to property located at 782 Wave Street, requesting a six -month extension of the variance determination to reduce their required setbacks to 10 feet from the north (side), 25 feet from the west (rear) and 50 feet from the south (side) property lines. The City Attorney read the case title and noted this was not a quasi-judicial hearing. MOTION by Mr. Hill and SECOND by Mr. Wolff to approve the extension passed on a voice vote of 4 -0. 8. CHAIRMAN'S MATTERS none 9. MEMBERS' MATTERS none 10. STAFF MATTERS none 11. Being no further business, Mayor Gillmor adjourned the Board of Adjustment meeting at 6:10 pm.

Pierce, FL 34951 772- 882 -9663 Kevin Smith Kevin A. Smith Land Surveying, Inc. 1350 Malabar Road, S.E., Suite 1 Palm Bay, FL 32907 a. Narrative of proposed action: Patricia Powers has requested a variance to allow a newly constructed garage to be 15 feet from the secondary front property line, whereas the code requires a 25 -foot front yard setback. b. Current Zoning: RS -10 (Residential Single Family) Zoning Current Land Future Land Use Use North: RS -10 residence LDR East: RS -10 city parcel LDR with lift station South: RS -10 residence LDR West: RS -10 residence LDR d. Site Characteristics (1) Total Acreage: .35 acres (2) Current Land Use(s): residential (3) Water Service: public water (4) Sanitary Sewer Service: public sewer 8. Staff Comments: Patricia Powers hired Coast to Coast Builders to construct a detached garage on her property located at 106 High Court. The contractor submitted for permits on November 23, 2009. The application had to be reviewed by the Planning and Zoning Commission because the garage, proposed to be 672 square feet, was over 500 square feet. A representative of Coast to Coast Builders presented the project to the Commission on December 3, 2009 at which time the accessory structure received zoning approval. The approved design indicated a 28 -foot setback from the secondary front yard line. The P Z packet, which includes the staff report, permit application and drawings, as well as the minutes of the meeting, is attached for your review. The building permit was issued on January 26, 2010. Subsequently she changed contractors several times and finally completed the project as an owner/builder. During the construction period, the Building Department also approved several requested changes to the construction plans. The Building Department requires a final survey before a certificate of completion is issued. The final survey revealed the garage to be 15 feet from the secondary front property line, instead of 28 feet as shown on the plan approved by both P Z and the Building Department. The subject property sits next to a large city -owned tract of land with an existing lift station. There are no other houses or garages along the east portion of the block to gauge the setback against. 2 As previously stated, the Planning and Zoning Commission reviews all accessory structures over 500 square feet in size. Regarding this size garage (672 square feet), the code states: "Accessory structures 501 square feet to 750 square feet in size shall be compatible with the overall general architectural design of the primary residence, including facade and materials, colors and trim, roofing materials and pitch." A field inspection has also revealed that the design elevations of the garage have been altered from the plan approved by the Planning and Zoning Commission. See photos attached. The roof was changed placing the gable end on the sides instead of the front and rear. Also, the side door was removed and placed on the rear. The side elevations now appear much larger because of the gable and the lack of architectural relief. Staff suggests that landscaping be used to offset this change to the plan approved by the Planning and Zoning Commission, rather than asking for changes to the garage itself. Larger accessory structures between 751 and 1000 square feet are required by code to provide foundation planting on all sides of the structure excluding entranceways and doorways, at the ratio of one shrub for every three lineal feet, 24 inches in height at planting. Since the elevations were changed after P Z approval, staff suggests that landscape shrubs be required for the garage perimeter using this ratio. The garage perimeter is 28.4 24.4 28.4 81.2 lineal feet. At one shrub per 3 lineal feet, 27 shrubs would be required. 9. Board Criteria for Determining Variances: See attached analysis. 10. Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends approval of the requested variance to allow a 15 -foot front yard setback for the existing detached garage, subject to the following conditions: 1. Landscape garage perimeter area with 27 shrubs, 24" height at planting, within 60 days of the granting of this variance and before the issuance of the Certificate of Completion. 2. No future addition to the garage or any other structure on the subject property may encroach into the 25 -foot front yard setback. 3. Add a window or decorative attic vent, on the east and west elevations (the blank facades) to give some architectural articulation to the structure. 3 11. Board Action: c —18 /D pl. ed by J 'ng Date Hold quasi-judicial hearing to consider the variance. "Move to approve a variance for 106 High Court allowing a 15 -foot front yard setback for the detached garage, subject to conditions outlined in the staff report." rowth Mana ent Department 4 BOARD CRITERIA FOR DETERMINING VARIANCES Section 54 -1 -2.5 In order to authorize any variance from the terms of the land development regulations, the Board of Adjustment must use the following criteria for approving or denying a variance: a. Existence of special conditions or circumstances. That special conditions and circumstances exist which are peculiar to the land, structure, or building involved and which are not applicable to other lands, structures, or buildings in the same zoning district. Meets Standard Yes No The subject property sits next to a large city -owned tract of land with an existing lift station. There are no other houses or garages along the east portion of the block to gauge the setback against. As such, it does not appear out of place. b. Conditions not created by applicant. That the special conditions and circumstances do not result from the actions of the applicant. Meets Standard Yes V No The owner did not create the problem. The original contractor made the error by not locating the garage slab according to the approved plan, which was not discovered until the final survey was submitted to the City. c. Special privileges not conferred. That granting the variance requested will not confer on the applicant any special privilege that is denied by this ordinance to other lands, buildings, or structures in the same zoning district. Meets Standard Yes No When an encroachment issue is discovered, it is handled on a case by case basis. Consideration is given to the events leading to the need for the variance, as well as the surrounding property conditions. d. Hardship conditions exist. That literal interpretation of the provisions of the ordinance would deprive the applicant of rights commonly enjoyed by other properties in the same zoning district under the terms of the ordinance and would create unnecessary and undue hardship on the applicant. Meets Standard Yes C� No 5 Since the structure is complete, removal of 10 feet of the garage would create an unnecessary and undue burden to the owner, who did not create the problem. e. Only the minimum variance granted. That the variance granted is the minimum variance that will make possible the reasonable use of the land, building, or structure. Meets Standard Yes V No Staff proposes only that portion of the existing structure which encroaches into the front 25 -foot setback be granted a variance. All future construction shall be in full conformance with existing codes. f. Not injurious to public welfare or intent of ordinance. That the granting of the variance will be in harmony with the general intent and purpose of the comprehensive plan and this code, and that such variance will not be injurious to the area involved or otherwise detrimental to the public welfare. Meets Standard Yes No The structure does not appear out -of -place because there are no other structures to the east on the south side of High Court, as it is a city -owned tract of land. g. Conditions and safeguards may be imposed. In granting any variance, the board of adjustment may prescribe appropriate conditions and safeguards in conformity with chapter 163 F.S., the comprehensive plan, and any ordinance enacted under its authority. Violation of such conditions and safeguards, when made a part of the terms under which the variance is granted, shall be deemed a violation of the ordinance. Meets Standard Yes Q' No Conditions of approval shall be as follows: 1. Landscape garage perimeter area with 27 shrubs, 24" height at planting, within 60 days of the granting of this variance and before the issuance of the Certificate of Completion. 2. No future addition to the garage or any other structure on the subject property may encroach into the 25 -foot front yard setback. 6 3. Add a window or decorative attic vent on the east and west elevations (the blank facades) to give some architectural articulation to the structure. h. Time limit may be imposed. The board of adjustment may prescribe a reasonable time limit during which the applicant shall commence and/or complete the subject actions and conditions approved by the board. Meets Standard Yes No Variance shall be conditional upon installation of 27 shrubs around the perimeter of the garage within 60 days of the variance approval, and before the Certificate of Completion is issued. i. No use variance permitted in specified instances. Under no circumstances shall the board of adjustment grant a variance to permit a use not generally permitted in the zoning district involved or any use expressly or by implication prohibited by the terms of the ordinance in the zoning district. No nonconforming use of neighboring lands, structures, or buildings in the same zoning district and no permitted use of lands, structures, or buildings in other zoning districts shall be considered grounds for the authorization of a variance. Meets Standard Yes C�' No The request is not a use related variance. 7 101 CURVE DATA "C-1": R= 50.00' D= 90'00'00" A= 78.54' PROPERTY ADDRESS: 106 HIGH COURT SEBASTIAN, FLORIDA 32958 CER11RED TO: PATRICIA POWERS l M1 \-1/2 IRON ROD (NO I.D.)

The location of this garage was not done intentionally and is no fault of mine. 1, Patricia Powers, owner of 106 High Ct in Sebastian, FL Hired: Coast to Coast builder of FL on November 14, 2009 to build an un- attached garage. Permit #09-001671 I, Patricia Powers, had asked Coast to Coast Builder of FL, to put the garage location, back further from the road, due to the fact that we were going to be backing up a 21 foot boat with a Lincoln automobile. Coast to Coast refused and stated they did not want the avocado tree to be on the roof. Coast to Coast builders, pored a cement foundation with out ordering or supplying a form board survey. I was told: Permit Department thought the survey was just not on the site. So inspection was written up conditional. Why would a contractor pour a cement foundation without going through the proper procedures? I, Patricia Powers, was never informed of any inspections being done. Not knowing how things worked and being too trusting of people that was hired to do this construction has put me in this position. Several things followed that was unacceptable with Coast to Coast builders of FL and does not pertain to this variance, that is being applied for. Please allow this variance of the garage's location Respectively, Patricia Powers B. Site Information Name: ,1 rcZj7Ci RP WI2r S Address: 6/33 `S./0/22 1 /-4 le re R ra e e..

OLD BUSINESS: REVIEW AND RECOMMEND TO CITY COUNCIL —THE PROPOSED ANNEXATION AND RESTRICTIVE COVENANT FOR A 5.9 ACRE PARCEL LOCATED SOUTH OF VICKERS ROAD (A.K.A. 99 STREET) AND WEST OF THE F.E.C. RAILROAD Ms. King reviewed the annexation, land use and zoning change for this property. She explained that the commission recommends an appropriate zoning and land use for the property. This was done and recommended that both land use and zoning be industrial with a covenant that would run with the land. This covenant would restrict some of the industrial uses that would normally be allowed. The annexation was presented to City Council which approved the three ordinances on first reading, the annexation, land use and zoning. However, City Council asked that the covenant be reviewed by Planning and Zoning prior to the second reading. Staff believes that the covenant does meet the intent of the Planning and Zoning Commission. Mr. Cardinale asked the applicant for comments. Mr. John Malek, Vero Beach, FL, representing Bridgeton Properties made himself available to answer any questions. Mr. Simmons and some other commissioners were concerned about the industrial uses that would still be allowed under the covenant. Mr. Ginsburg explained the issue. There is no specific zoning category strictly for storage facilities. The covenant could have been written that the property will be used for storage facilities and ancillary use, or uses ancillary thereto, but wasn't. What they did do was review the industrial zone uses, and struck out a number of them. The covenant is in proper legal form and can only be done as a voluntary declaration restrictive covenant by the property owner, not a government body. Mr. Ginsburg added if a government body were to write a restrictive covenant it would be considered contract zoning and that's not permitted. We are allowed to accept a tender of a voluntary restriction that the owner's placing on his own property. It runs with the land, it binds the bank in case it is foreclosed, it binds subsequent purchases, and we can accept it and we can enforce it once it's accepted. 2
