Background:
Ir
The Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) created the Facade, Sign and Landscaping
Grant several years ago and has programmed $226,000 into the program to help businesses
fund improvements to their properties. To date, $189,278 has been disbursed and an
additional $5,583 has been awarded but not yet disbursed totaling $194,861. The $26,000
funded by the CRA Board for fiscal year 2012/2013 along with $5,139 unused funds from the
Southern Sisters Phase II grant brings the total available funds for this year's program to
$31,139.
In accordance with the Facade Sign and Landscaping Grant Information and Application, as
approved by CRA (latest revision 09/23/09), eligible signage and landscape improvements may
be considered for 80% of costs, up to $7,500. Eligible exterior facade improvements (including
signage and landscaping) may be considered for 80% of costs, up to $15,000.
2 of 140
2012/2013 Application cycle:
The following five applications have been submitted for consideration:
• River Park Plaza — 480 to 484 U.S. Highway #1
• Alpha Hardware & Marine Supply — 712 Cleveland Street
• Buried Treasures - 1554 U.S. Highway #1
• Sebastian Vacation Rentals — 1301 US Highway #1
• Ar -Pat's Dry Cleaners — 720 Harrison Street
These applications were reviewed by the FSL Grant Committee on January 30, 2013. The FSL
Grant Committee recommendations are as follows:
River Park Plaza — 480 to 484 U.S. Highway #1 — Jay Dick
The new owner of the River Park Plaza property, which consists of two existing buildings and a
partially constructed site plan for a third building, has begun permitting activities to complete the
project. The approved site plan elements are being implemented and the two existing buildings
are having their exterior facades renovated. Mr. Dick is requesting grant money reimbursement
for proposed landscaping improvements and removal of the non - complying pole sign adjacent
to US Highway #1. The small existing sign for the River Grille Restaurant received $3,398 of
grant funds in the 2010/11 application cycle.
It was the consensus of the FSL Grant Committee that the landscaping was a required element
of the site plan and therefore should not be considered for grant funds. Also, since there are
not enough funds to cover all of the requests, the Committee felt the funds could be spent
better on other applications. (Total recommended award $0)
Alpha Hardware & Marine Supply — 712 Cleveland Street — Edith Humphrey
Mrs. Humphrey is currently in the process of making necessary repairs to the Alpha Hardware
building on Cleveland Street, which was also the Sebastian Post Office Building in the 1950's.
She would also like to renovate the exterior elevations with paint and new hardi -plank siding,
and replace the non - complying freestanding sign. The FSL Grant Committee recommends
approval of 80% of costs, up to $7,499 for the sign and facade improvements, but requests to
re- review the signage for final design. (Total recommended award $7,499)
Buried Treasures — new location 1554 US Highway #1 — Renee Powell
Ms. Powell recently purchased property on US Highway #1 for the new location of her antique
and gift shop. She is requesting grant money reimbursement for signage and landscaping.
The FSL Grant Committee recommends approval of 80% of costs, up to $4,320 for the new
sign, but requests to re- review the signage for final design. (Total recommended award $4,320)
3 of 140
Sebastian Vacation Rentals — 1301 US Highway #1 — John Conway
Mr. Conway, the new tenant of this property, in coordination with the owner, has started the
permitting process to rehabilitate the structure and add visible improvements to the site. Mr.
Conway has applied for grant money reimbursement for facade improvements, landscaping,
and signage. The FSL Grant Committee felt this was a very worthy project and recommends
approval of 80% of costs, up to the maximum allowed of $15,000, but requests to re- review the
signage for final design. (Total recommended award $15,000)
Ar -Pat's Dry Cleaners — 720 Harrison Street — Sam Desai
Mr. Desai has applied for grant money reimbursement for a monument sign. Currently, the
property does not have any type of freestanding signage, only the fagade signage on his
covered driveway. The FSL Grant Committee recommends approval of 80% of costs, up to
$4,320 for the new sign, but requests to re- review the signage for final design. (Total
recommended award $4,320)
Summary:
Total application requests far exceed the $31,139 of available funds in the grant program. The
FSL Grant Committee based their decisions on which applications they felt best supported the
goals of the Overlay District for the CRA area. In an effort to allow the projects to proceed, the
following recommendations, as detailed above, are being forwarded to the Community
Redevelopment Agency for final grant award. However, the FSL Grant Committee would like to
re- review all the proposed signs with requested revisions before a final design is approved by
the Committee.
Sebastian Vacation Rentals $15,000
Alpha Hardware & Marine Supply 7,499

RE: Application for Sign & Landscaping Grant
River Park Plaza, Sebastian, Florida
Dear Ms. Bosworth:
On November 9, 2012 we submitted our Application for the City of Sebastian
Sign and Landscaping Grant and included color Monument Sign drawings. We
are aware that the sign drawings that we have submitted with the application do
not match the existing River Grill Restaurant sign that was approved by the City
and installed recently. We are currently working with an Architect to formulate
and overall plan to enhance the 3 existing buildings and once that is completed
then we may need to request changes to the sign drawings to then tie the
buildings and signs together.
Thank you very much for your consideration.
Sincerely,
Jay Di k

Respectfully submitted are applications requesting approval of Grant monies for fa4acle and signage
renovations at 712 Cleveland Street, the location being within the Riverfront Overlay District.
This property and structure formerly housed the Sebastian U.S. Post Office. To the best of my
knowledge, the building was constructed in 1954 with a dedication taking place in November of that
same year.
My late husband, David Humphrey (deceased April, 2011), and my late father-in-law, Charles Humphrey
(deceased June, 2012), purchased the property and the existing business as partners in May, 1991. At
the time the owners were operating the premises as a hardware/ surplice supply store.
The location still operates as a family-owned hardware store plus marine supply business. it is,
however, in much need of repair, renovations and updating.
Your consideration is kindly requested in approval of the application(s) contained in this submission.
Sincerely,
Edith Humphrey, President

6. NEW BUSINESS
A. Review of Budget and Funds Available
Ms. Bosworth had previously explained that the Tiki Bar & Grill (Suzi's) had requested a six
month extension, until July 2013, for their grant funds awarded for landscaping plans. These
monies were set aside and not included in the available funds figure. Mr. Griffin stated that
a portion of the Southern Sisters Phase II monies was not used and therefore now available
for this year's applications. Total funds available for the 2013 applicants is $31,139.

B. New Applications
The Committee decided to review all the applications and then discuss allocation of the
funds.
Ms. Robinson stated she felt the Committee had become more of a signage group, which
was disappointing, instead of reviewing projects that were geared towards the development
of a Fishing Village. She was unhappy with the line-up of lit billboards along US Highway #1
and felt the signs should be establishing unity within the CRA, and that grant monies should
be used on older properties or those no longer in compliance with the overlay district
regulations. She preferred hand-carved, non-lighted signage that appeared small village-
like. Ms. Keys gave the members a hand-out for dimensional signs (attached).
Mr. Dill agreed, and stated he was looking more at the fac;ade and landscaping projects this
year, though not disregarding signage.
Ms. Robinson discussed asking City Councii/CRA to allow the FSL Grant Committee to only
approve a more creative type of sign if grant monies were being used. Ms. Keys was in
agreement, and stated that staff has to approve signs that meet code but, as an advisory
board they can approve aesthetics. She stated she would also like to get away from the
internally lit, monument based signs and move towards nice sand-blasted, overhead or
ground lit signs that feel like a village.
Mr. Griffin reminded the Committee to keep costs in mind, and that he felt that there had
been improvement in the Riverfront with the previously approved signs.
Mr. Dill agreed that if grant monies were being used for the sign, an aesthetically nicer sign
should be approved.
River Park Plaza-480 to 484 US Highway #1
The applicant, Mr. Jay Dick, was not present. Staff explained that the development of the
2004 site plan had been halted years ago, and the current owners were now in the process
of completing the project. They had requested grant monies for landscaping and
replacement of the non-conforming pole sign.
Mr. Keys stated she would consider the replacement of the pole sign but felt the landscaping
was a requirement of the site plan approval and didn't meet the grant criteria. Mr. Dill
agreed. There was a discussion of the two proposed sign designs, which the Committee felt
did not meet the Fishing Village look. Ms. Robinson understood the need for a multi-tenant
sign but liked the carved, multi-tenant sign installed for Washington Plaza (Vic's Pizza) much
better.
Alpha Hardware & Marine Supply-712 Cleveland Street
The applicant, Ms. Edith Humphrey, was not present. Staff verified the request was for
fac;ade improvements to a very old building, and new signage. Mr. Dill noted landscaping
was lacking from the site as well. Ms. Robinson was happy to discover this building was
used as the city's Post Office in the 1950's, and was excited for it to have a facelift. She felt
this was the intent of the grant program. The committee had questions to ask the applicant
2
about the proposed fa!Yade changes. There was a discussion regarding tabling the
application.
Buried Treasures-1554 US Highway #1
Ms. Renee Powell explained that she had purchased the property across the street from her
existing business location, which she was currently developing. She was requesting grant
funds for signage and landscaping. She stated it was hard to get quotes from sign
companies and suggested the Committee have a list available of companies that design and
construct the signs they were interested in. She stated her proposed building was designed
to look like an old cracker house, and the site plan should be completed within a month.
Ms. Keys stated she felt the same regarding the landscaping request as with the River Park
Plaza application, in that it will be a part of the approval for the site plan, but she like the
direction of the proposed sign. Ms. Robinson liked the logo and wanted to possibly add
funds for landscaping around the sign. The Committee discussed recommending an award
amount tonight, but wanted to work with the applicant in tweaking the sign design.
Sebastian Vacation Rentals-1301 US Highway #1
Mr. John Conway stated he currently had a small business located in town since 2008, but
now wanted to start his new business venture at a location that needed much renovation.
He had worked with city staff regarding the zoning change of use, site plan, and approval of
colors, and had been working with a structural engineer regarding building permit
requirements. He was requesting grant funds for fa!Yade, signage, and landscaping, and
although the signage costs were a high part of his application, it was not what he wanted to
spend the most money on. He would rather use grant monies for fa!Yade and landscaping, if
awarded.
The Committee discussed with staff how the grant program allowed monies to be divided
between the three items.
Mr. Conway explained his fa9ade improvements on the overhead projector, and went over
the condition of the building.
Mr. Dill stated he thought this application had the potential to be the best project the grant
program had ever funded as it was removing blight that was in the center of the city, and
should be considered for maximum award. He verified that Mr. Conway had a long-term
lease with the owner. Ms. Robinson and Mr. Hayes also agreed with awarding the
maximum amount however the applicant wanted to break it down. Ms. Keys asked if the
applicant would consider down-sizing the 10' X 10' sign to being more in proportion with the
building. Mr. Conway stated he would consider not using an internally lit sign, and would
like to incorporate the proposed shell into the design.
Ar-Pat's Dry Cleaners -720 Harrison Street
Mr. Sam Desai explained that he had other various businesses between West Palm Beach
and Daytona, but loved Sebastian, and actually bought the property and building at this
location. In the past few years, he has been continuing site improvements. He felt a
monument sign would be appealing to his freestanding building, which the site has never
had. He also stated he would be adding landscaping around the sign and to the front area.
3
Ms. Keys asked if an irrigation system existed on site. Mr. Desai stated it did on the east and
north side of the building. She discussed with Mr. Desai if any existing signage would be
removed if a monument sign was installed. He stated if the monument sign was big enough
he would consider removing the signage on the canopy. The Committee discussed the
amount of existing signage, and if additional signage was necessary.
Ms. Robinson stated she would not like to see a lit sign next to the city's park, and would
consider a grant if the sign was re-designed, blending more in with the district. Mr. Dill
agreed, and would also like to see some of the existing signage removed, and possibly help
with costs to re-paint the canopy.
The Committee and staff discussed the LDC requirement of having signage reflect the
design of the building.
The Committee then discussed which existing signage they would like to have Mr. Desai
remove, and consideration of approving funds for a non-internally lit sign.
The Committee then had a general discussion on which applications should be awarded
grant monies and how much. It was agreed by all that Sebastian Vacation Rentals should
receive maximum amount based on its blighted condition, and the following applications in
following priority: 2) Alpha Hardware, 3) Buried Treasures, 4) Ar-Pat's, and 5) River Park
Plaza.
Staff and the Committee discussed language in the grant program with regards to how many
times the applicants could apply, which was until the maximum amount was awarded to
them, and then they were not eligible for another three years. The city attorney would be
asked for his opinion of this verbiage.
There was also a discussion with staff regarding the LDC and internally lit signs. Ms. King
stated the code listed signs that were "encouraged", such as the wood-carved signs the
Committee was interested in, but it was hard to enforce because of the way it was worded.
Staff suggested asking the CRA to allow the condition that if you receive grant monies for a
sign, it would have to be of a certain design that the Committee was looking for.
After discussion, the Committee decided to recommend grant awards to the CRA so that a
meeting could be scheduled for final decisions in order not to further delay projects that
wished to begin, but that they would like to meet with the applicants at a future meeting date
to work on and approve final sign designs.
Ar-Pat's Dry Cleaners:
Motion by Robinson/_ to award $4,320 [for a sign] contingent upon further design review.
Motion died for lack of a second.
It was discussed that when the sign design was brought back for further review, the
Committee could then decide if or which existing sign might be required to be removed.

There was discussion with the applicant if grant money was wanted for the proposed sign,
and a review of the grant program verbiage regarding the amounts allowed for each element
ensued. Mr. Conway stated if money was awarded for his proposed signage, he was
agreeable to return with a new design, especially if it may be less expensive.
Motion by Dill/Keys to recommend to City Council [CRA] to award Sebastian Vacation
Rentals $15,000 subject to further review of the signage, landscaping, and fac;ade

It was discussed by staff and the Committee that Ms. Humphrey could apply for an
additional $7,501 through the next grant cycle.
River Park Plaza:
Motion by Dill/Haynes to recommend to City Council [CRA] the denial of a grant to River
Park Plaza, LLC.
A voice vote was taken. All members were in favor.
The Committee stated the denial was based on that they felt the landscaping was a part of
their approval for the site plan, and that grant monies would be spent better on other
properties that met the intent of the program.
5
Ms. Keys and Ms. Robinson offered to meet with the applicants to help design and discuss
revisions to their sign details.
The next FSL Grant Committee meeting to review final designs was tentatively scheduled
for the first week of March.
