Al (AIRPORT AND INDUSTRIAL FACILITIES) ZONING DISTRICT
Mr. Paul opened the hearing and Mr. Ginsburg swore in anyone that was going to offer
testimony. The Commissioners were asked if they had any exparte communication to
disclose. There was none.
Mr. Todd Howder, MBV Engineering, Inc., displayed the proposed site plan on the
overhead monitor and screen, and reviewed the elements of the site plan, including
location (adjacent to the LoPresti site, or Hangar "A" building), the 15,000 SF hangar
building, landscaping, master stormwater system, parking, resurfacing of the existing
PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION

tarmac, and the wind turbine field. Mr. Howder stated the turbines would be a separate
permit thru the building department and FAA because of the vertical component.
Utilities were also discussed, as part of the airport's master plan.
Ms. King explained, as noted in the staff report, that the actual turbines were not being
approved tonight and would take a separate action, and this was listed as a
recommended condition. Two other conditions were reviewed that the site needed to
provide the one required loading zone, and indicate a lighting plan. Staff recommended
approval of the site plan.
Mr. Durr had questions regarding the utilities and credits for the landscaping. He noted
that the 6 foot buttonwood trees should be 8 feet minimum and requested that the noted
mulch be recycled. Mr. Dodd had questions regarding signage and the overflow
interceptor drainage system for the building.
Mr. Hepler requested clarification of the turbine location and significance to the project.
Mr. Joe Griffin, Airport Director, reviewed the grant application history of the turbines,
discussed some of the structural specifications, and explained that they would be used
to help power the security lighting system for that area of the airport and the credit
received would be on the city's electric bill.
Mr. Paul asked for more information regarding the actual business that would be located
in the hangar. Mr. Griffin detailed the V- Raptor's business plan manufacturing Velocity
type aircraft.
Public Input was opened. There were no proponents or opponents who spoke.
Mr. Griffin clarified that the turbines were for the security lighting only and that the
hangar would have a separate meter for their electrical use.
Mr. Paul requested clarification regarding the "trucking" of parts to the building. Mr.
Griffin anticipated that the parts would be delivered in small trailers, not 18 -wheel
vehicles.
The Commission further discussed with Mr. Griffin the security lighting, current electrical
costs, turbine costs, cost savings, etc.
Mr. Paul asked how many jobs V- Raptor may be creating. Mr. Griffin stated approx. 20
at the off -site building [on Gibson -130 Street] and 10 at the hangar.
MOTION by Dodd /Hepler to approve the site plan for City of Sebastian Hangar "B"
located at Sebastian Airport with the three conditions listed in the staff
recommendations.
Mr. Durr requested that another condition be added to require the buttonwoods be 8 feet
tall and recycled mulch be used. Mr. Dodd and Mr. Hepler concurred to amend their
motion. Mr. Dodd reiterated that the turbines were not included tonight.

OVERLAY DISTRICT WAIVER CLAMS R US 1624 INDIAN RIVER DRIVE
MIXED USE: AQUACULTURE FACILITY AND SINGLE FAMILY
RESIDENCE WAIVER REQUEST FOR LANDSCAPING REQUIREMENTS
CWR (COMMERCIAL WATERFRONT RESIDENTIAL) ZONING DISTRICT
Mr. Paul opened the hearing and asked the Commissioners if they had any exparte
communication. There was none. Mr. Ginsburg swore in anyone that was going to offer
testimony during the hearing.
Mr. David Knight of Knight, McGuire Associates, Inc., who represented the owner, Mr.
Joesph Weismann, displayed a colored version of the proposed site plan on the
overhead monitor and screen, and reviewed the boundaries of the overall property and
then the developable area of the site (upland area). He described components of the
proposed residential and aquaculture uses structures, the dock layout, phasing
schedule and construction, state and environmental permits, and the difficulty in getting
the riverfront landscaping onto the developable area. He reviewed the project's request
for a waiver from the east side perimeter and east side foundation landscaping
requirements.
Ms. Bosworth reviewed additional items from the staff report including building height
[measured from the BFE], parking requirements for the dock, site lighting, traffic
statement information, LDC environmental requirements, and waiver history and
considerations [root systems affecting the retaining wall, house on top of stormwater
area].
Mr. Carter asked how many employees there would be. Mr. Knight stated it would be
the owner and possibly one other helper. Mr. Dodd had questions regarding the
construction of the structure over the stormwater pond and water overflow into the river,
boat traffic, and his disappointment of the architectural elevations. He stated this was his
main reason he could not support the project. Mr. Knight addressed the stormwater
overflow concerns, and suggested a condition of approval to redesign the elevations.
Mr. Reyes had questions regarding the date of the Environmental Site Summary,
seagrass survey information and project impacts, fuel refilling, and the owner's current
commercial activities [at another location].
Mr. Durr questioned, because of the mixed use, which of the landscaping requirements
had to be met, residential or commercial. Staff detailed the difference, and stated since
the less, commercial setbacks were used, commercial landscaping was required. He
had concerns that an incorrect open space square- footage was used for tree
calculations and zoning compliance. He also felt the building was too large for the site,
and should have been revised instead of asking for a landscaping waiver, and that the
size of the building did not create an "inordinate burden" for the Commission to grant
approval. He clarified that the public or customers would not be coming to the site, had
questions regarding the driveway drainage structure, existing easements, and proposed
plant species.

PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION
MINUTES OF REGULAR MEETING OF FEBRUARY 17, 2011
Mr. Paul also expressed his dislike of the building elevations, and did not want to end up
with an unattractive residence if in the future the commercial use was abandoned. Staff,
too, suggested to request a redesign of the elevations as a condition of approval since
the structure would not be built until Phase 111 in 18 to 24 months. Mr. Knight stated the
owner wanted to begin construction of the aquaculture facilities because he had some
deadlines with the jurisdictional permits and would hate to see the initial phases held up
because of the structure, which they would work on revising the elevations.
Public Input was opened. There were no proponents who spoke.
Opponents who spoke:
Mr. Norm Adams, President of the Sebastian Village Condominium Resort Association,
stated his objection for the site plan based on the Association's concerns with the size of
the project on a small area of land, lack of architectural detail on the building, request for
the landscape waiver, non compliance with established standards seen on surrounding
properties, phasing details, traffic information, garage door location, current code
enforcement violations on the vacant lot, the aquaculture structures, and the T -111
siding. Mr. Adams clarified for Mr. Paul that there were 12 condo owners.
Mr. Greg Parker, condo owner, had concerns with smells that may come from the
aquaculture facility, additional hovering birds, and also the garage -type elevations of the
building.
Staff addressed some of the opponent's questions and concerns.
Mr. Dodd questioned the city attorney regarding the Commission's option to only
approve a portion of the phases, specifically approving the commercial use but denying
the residential. The Commission discussed this option, again relaying their displeasure
mostly with the building elevations. Mr. Ginsburg clarified that some action must be
taken on all three phases.
There was further discussion regarding open space and the inclusion of wetland area,
and an explanation by staff of the required SCADL (School Concurrency Availability
Determination Letter) for the proposed residential use.
The Commission discussed the option of deferring a decision to a later meeting so that
the owner and Mr. Knight could work on revising the elevations and possibly the lay -out
of the building, and also re -work the landscaping regarding the waiver request.
MOTION by Dodd /Paul to "defer the site plan for Clams R Us for further review
requesting that the applicant modify the design of the residential structure and to view
the possibility of making it smaller and fit the overall theme."
ROLL CALL: Mr. Reyes yes Mr. Hepler yes

One of the overall purposes of the Riverfront Overlay District regulations, as listed in
Section 54 -4 -21.2, is to "Provide for a sufficient amount of attractive and well
maintained landscaping to complement buildings and structures within the corridor
Recently, the Commission required additional landscaping/hardscape for a new
development to help implement the fishing village theme to the site. The proposed
structures and site elements for Fisherman's Landing clearly meet the intent of the
district's purpose.
This property is owned by the City and leased to Fisherman's Landing Sebastian to be
developed as a working waterfront. There is an abundance of trees on the western side of
Indian River Drive where the parking is located, and mature trees on the Hurricane
Harbor site.
9. Board Criteria for Determining Waivers (Section 54 -4- 21.6):
As part of an application for development, a request may be made for a waiver of any of
the provisions of this article (Article XXI. Performance Overlay Districts). The request
shall be heard by the planning and zoning commission in determining if any such provision
be waived, modified or applied as written. The planning and zoning commission shall hold
a quasi-judicial hearing on the requested waiver. The criterion for granting a waiver or
modification of any of the provisions of this article is whether the strict interpretation of the
requirements of this article places an inordinate burden on the property owner as defined by
Florida Statutes. The waiver procedure herein is the exclusive remedy to the application of
the provisions of this article and is to be utilized in lieu of an application for a variance.
10. Staff Recommendation:
Along with the existing landscaping on the Hurricane Harbor parcel, and the proposed
landscape plan for the southern parcel (Dabrowski site), staff feels there will be a sufficient
amount of landscaping to complement this project, and recommends approval of this
waiver request.

At the completion of both Phase I and Phase II, the total impervious area for the
subject property will be 49.2 well under the maximum.
The design of the school's proposed modifications to the stormwater system has
been reviewed and permitted by St Johns River Water Management District.
The applicant intends to pipe the ditch running along the southern portion of their
property within the 40' drainage easement which is managed by the Property
Owners Association (POA) for Chesser's Gap PUD. Attorneys for the school
and the POA are negotiating a formal agreement regarding the perpetual
maintenance of the piped area by the school and several other matters
concerning the drainage system. This agreement must be in place prior to any

23. City Engineer's review: The site plan has been reviewed by the City's
consulting engineer, Frank Watanabe of Neel- Schaffer, Inc. All comments have
been addressed.
24. Other Matters: Staff has identified a mathematical error on Sheet C5. Under
Proposed Phase 1 Site Data, the Total Impervious Area should be 41,733 SF and
the Total Open Area should be 52,100 SF. On Sheet C10, under Proposed
Phase II Site Data, the Total Impervious Area should be 46,185 SF and the Total
Open Area should be 47,648 SF. Also, under Building Setbacks, the front
setback required should be 100' rather than 25' as stated. The engineer will
correct these items along with any changes or conditions required by the
Planning and Zoning Commission and resubmit the revised site plan prior to the
City Council public hearing.
25. Conclusion: The proposed site plan modification for the Sebastian Charter
Junior High School is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan, and the Land
Development Code.
26. Recommendation: Staff recommends that the Planning and Zoning
Commission make a recommendation to City Council to approve the site plan
modification for Sebastian Charter Junior High School at 782 Wave Street, with the
following conditions:
1. Provide a recorded copy of the fully executed legal agreement
between the Sebastian Charter Junior High School and the
Chesser's Gap Property Owners Association regarding the
stormwater drainage system modifications.
