7. Project Description:
a. Narrative of proposed action: Mr. Flood and Ms. Peltier are proposing
to add an addition to the front of the residence located at 1690 Indian River Drive,
essentially "squaring off' the front line of the structure. This addition will be part
of a garage area and courtyard. A second story will be added to the living area of
the home. They are also requesting to wrap the existing western deck around the
north side of the building to provide a more useable layout. Part of the proposed
deck area may be designed as a stairway to the second floor deck area.

d. Site Characteristics
(1) Total Acreage: 5975 sq.ft.
(2) Current Land Use(s): residential
(3) Water Service: well
(4) Sanitary Sewer Service: septic system
8. Staff Comments:
The subject structure was built in 1926. It has been the home of Ms. Peltier since 1972.
The residence sustained severe damage from the hurricanes of 2004 forcing Ms. Peltier to
relocate until repairs can be made. The Sebastian Land Development Code allows a non-
complying structure that has been damaged by any means including flood and wind, to be
restored. Along with the necessary repairs, the applicants are proposing several
improvements to the property. The improvements will include a second floor addition
over the existing living area, a functional garage and some additional deck area. The
front addition and deck area will require variances.
Mr. Flood has designed an addition that will "square off' the front of the building. The
plan includes the reorientation of the existing garage g e to a front entrance, as well as g g
providing additional parking area within the enclosed garage. The existing garage, as
shown on the sketch of existing home, is completely non-functional. The door is located
on the north side and can only be accessed via the neighboring private property.
The rear deck area was completely destroyed by the storms. In addition to reconstructing
the existing deck, the applicants have also asked to modify the deck area along the north
side of the residence to a more functional design, tying it into the rear deck. The proposal
is for a wooden deck, as utilized before, rather than a concrete pad. This is designed to
allow percolation of the soil beneath the deck and will have little impact on the
vegetation in that area. Also, the new deck area is tucked into the side of the structure
and will still be further from the side property line than the house itself. Final design of
this deck area has not been completed and may include a stairway to the second floor
deck. The sketch provided represents the maximum area proposed (including the stairs),
although the final design of the deck area may be smaller.
Staff has carefully reviewed the requests in relation to the general zoning regulations in
the CWR district, as well as the special regulations in the Riverfront Overlay District.
The following points are noted:
1. The proposed renovation has been designed to replicate the Spanish-
Mission style architecture of the original building. The roofline will
closely match that of the original building, including the bell tower.
3
. V
2. The subject structure is a historic building. The renovations have been
designed to preserve its architecture design and improve its overall
appearance.
3. The proposed addition will provide a functional garage area, which is
not provided in the existing structure.
4. The existing parking situation at this residence is hazardous. As can be
seen in the photo provided by Mr. Flood, a mid-size vehicle just clears the
sidewalk with the rear wheels, allowing the remainder of the vehicle to
extend over the sidewalk area. As no additional property is available to
correct this, the additional garage area will improve the situation.
5. The proposed deck will provide soil underneath, rather than concrete.
6. Substantial renovations are required to comply with FEMA regulations
regarding the flood elevation. The lowest finished floor of the structure
will be raised to meet the required base flood elevation.
7. The residence will be connected to the Indian River County public
water and sewer system.
8. If the property were to be converted to a commercial use, the front
setback would be 0 and the side setback would be 5'.
9. If the property were to be converted to a commercial use, the code
would allow 80% impervious surface and only 25% open space.
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 find the following:
a. Existence of special conditions or circumstances.
b. Conditions not created by applicant.
c. Special privileges not conferred.
d. Hardship conditions exist.
4
e. Only the minimum variance granted.
f. Not injurious to public welfare or intent of ordinance.
g. Conditions and safeguards may be imposed.
h. Time limit may be imposed.
i. No use variance permitted in specified instances.
Please reference Section 54-1-2.5 of the Land Development Code for further explanation and
clarification of the conditions as set forth above.
Staff Recommendation:
Staff believes that the overall project meets the spirit and intent of the Land Development Code.
The proposed improvements to the site far exceed any negative impact to the area. The property is
severely restricted by its size and the location of the existing structure. As such, the more restrictive
residential standards should not apply. Therefore, staff recommends approval of both variance
requests.
Commission Action:
Hold quasi-judicial hearing to consider the request for each variance.
