Staff Comments: 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.
