SCL Railroad. (Mobley Homes of Florida, Inc.)
COMMUNITY IMPACT STATEMENT - CONTINUED
'Joseph Molnar - No comment other than tyPographical error on Pag~ 19 of the
CIS, Item S--Police and Fire Protection, second line should read "suggested"
inst~ad of "uggested."
,~~)
Bill Tripp - No comment.
Keith Crawford - Discussed typographical error on ~age 12 of the CIS, bottom
line should Tead lFaiTwood" instead of "Fairway" Avenue. Mr. Crawford questioned
the , number of parking spaces requiTed for a townhouse. Discussion ensued whether
the townhouse was considered a single-family dwelling or a multiple-family dwelling.
Art Woodworth commented that John Richter agreed that due to type of dwelling, etc.,
that 1.5 would be applicable as a minimum base for parking. Mr. Crawford also
discussed that on Page 11 of the CIS describes a two-lane exit which allows for
both right and left turns exiting the project and this information is not included
on th~:site plan.

Keith Crawford commented on the discrepancy on Page 12 of the CIS. The second
paragraph references n 20 foot wide Toad and the site plan was changed to reflect
n 24 foot road plus curb and gutter.
Chairman Hllcsckcr stated that it appeared the Committee would have to discuss
tho CIS with the site plan. Mrs. llaeseker questioned if this was going to be
platted. Art Woodworth responded there would be a subdivision plat.
"
David Henlex - Commented on the need for handicapped provisions in the CIS and
a letter written by the Suncoast Archaeological Society, as a follow-up response,
should be included as a supplement to the CIS. Mr. Healey stated he had two
other comments that overlap and involve the site plan: (1) Some concern from
an environmental standpoint with respect to the soil characteristics and the
topography in particular and to give as much attention to tree cover; (2) Has
to do with the concept itself, the platting arrangement with the remainder of
. the property being held in common by the homeowners association. Mr. Healey
stated at this point in discussing the CIS, the need to reconcile that proposal
with the City's previous concern and policy to try to plat to the centerline of
the private-stree~ system in order to be able to attach that street system to a
property specific rather than that held in con~on ownership by the homeowners
association.
Cecil Henderson - See written comments (Attachment 4).

Don Beachler - No comments on the CIS.

Ream Wilson - Questioned Page 17 of the CIS regarding using the adjacent park
at Alligator Creek. On Page 18 of the CIS, it does not address the ilnpact on
the park system. The CIS states that "the direct impact of the Brigadoon
residents on these facilities will be negligible."
Mr. Wilson proceeded to explain the open space and recreation facility impact
fee ordinance that were recently passed by the City Commission in July, 1983,
and commented that the project would have to comply with these ordinances. He
presented the applicant with a preliminary worksheet for the assessment of the
Open Space/Recreation Impact fees (see Attachment 5) and requested a copy of
the most recent contract for purchase of the propert)' and a copy of the County
Tax Appraiser's assessment for just value. The larger of those two will be used
to calculate the value of the property for the three different assessments that
would be required. ~Ir. Wilson further explained that t~e fees are due prior to
the certification of the final site plan other than the recreation facility fee
which is paid at the time of building permit. Mr. Wilson requested the documents
be submitted as soon as possible so these calculations can be made.

Chairman Haeseker - Suggested to withhold action on the CIS until the review of
the final site plan.

PINAL SITE PI.t\N - CONTINUED.
Joseph Molnar - Commented that due to this project being a multi-unit complex,
the spacing for tho fire hydrants should be 300 feet apart instead of 600 feet.
Also" nn eight-inch line looping is required instead of a six-inch line looping.
Bill Tripp - No comments.
Keith Crawford - Discussed the detail on the site plan showing the road with a
24 foot asphalt pavement~ the actual site plan indicates 20 feet and needs to be
changed to 24 feet, 3S per the detail.
David Henley - Explained the net density calculation to the applicants. The
net density needs to reflect the following: net acreage of 14.841~ net density of
11.6 units per acre. Mr. Healey discussed the need to know what the building height
is going t,o be in feet. Mr. Woodworth responded the bUilding. floor to slab, is
22 feet within a few inches. Mr. Healey requested that this be shown on the site
plan.
Mr. Healey commented the recreation area needs to be shown more definitively to
be able to document that it constitutes at least 15% of the lot area. which is
the requirement of the RPD. Mr. Healey discussed the City's concern of the lot
arrangement. He restated his concerns that those platted lots should continue
to the midpoint of the private street and include the street in the fee simple
lotting arrangement. Discussion ensued regarding the possibility of the City
being requested to maintain the roads at sometime in the future. Mr. Healey
suggested that the applicants provide documents to the Planning Department to
be forwarded to the City Attorney to reassure the City that the private corpora-
tion is adequately established and funded.
Chairman Haeseker commented that even though these people. own this parking space,
the corporation will maintain it.
Mr. Healey mentioned the change in elevation and the apparent cut and fill (hot-i
iH Blocks 10, 11, and 12 in particular indicate there is a significant amount of
change in elevation that occurs in the course of the building area).
Discussion ensued regarding the decking. Mr. Healey commented the minimum spacing
on either end of the blocks of the building. Mr. Woodworth responded there will
be an absolute minimum of 20 feet physically between the buildings. Mr. Healey
requested that that be stated on the site plan.
Cecil Henderson - See written conunents (Attachment 6).
Don Beachler -,Stated the Engineering Department had no comments; l~ater Quality
has submitted written comments (see Attachment 7).
'I
Ream Wilson - Commented that Alligator Creek Park is inunediately West of this
project and a bike trail system from the park to Eisenhower School was planned.
Mr. Wilson requested an easement for the bike trail to cross the access road in
the project. Mr. Woodworth responded the applicant would be more than happy to
work with the City on this project.
Mr. Wilson submitted written comments from the City Forester (Attachment 8).

Tim ~tobley questioned the estimated assessment of $51,000 for open spacol
recreation impact fees. Discussion ensued. Mr. Wilson explained tho payment
of the assessments. ~fr. Wilson also stated the rough estimate was based on
the 1982 assessment found in the CIS and commented that the assessments could
be considerably higher based on mOl'C recent documents to be submitted to the
City.
MOTION
David Hcaley moved that both the Community Impact Statement nnd the Pinnl Site
Plan be continued to allow the applicant the opportunity to address the concerns
of the Resource Development C~mmittec.
The Motion was seconded by Joseph Molnar; the motion carried with one vote in
opposition (Cecil Henderson).
3. Brigantine Condominiums, located at North side of Bayway Blvd., opposite
Clearwater Pass Avenue. (Dugger).
FINAL SITE PLAN - APPROVED WITH CONDITIONS.
Joseph Molnar - Questioned where the nearest hydrant was located--and if a
hydrant was located on the corner of Clearwater Pass. Mr. Molnar stated in
1980 George'Buhmeyer requested a fire hydrant be placed across the street
fr~m Clearwater Pass on the Southwest corner. t-tr. SpeuTs responded that he
would check that out.
Bill Tripp - No comments.
Keith Crawford - Stated parking spaces numbered 10 and 11 should have 9 ft.
doors instead of 8 ft. doors. ~tr. Spears responded that the doors could be
made to nine foot garage doors as opposed to eight foot garage doors.
David Healey - Requested the applicant identify the dimensions ,on the swimming
pool from the lot line.
Cecil Henderson - See written comments (Attachment 9).
Don Beachler - Stated the Engineering Department had no comments; Water Quality
has submitted written comments'(see Attachment 10).
Ream Wilson - See wTitten comments from the City Forester (Attachment 11).
MOTION
Cecil Henderson moved to recommend approval of the Final Site Plan for Brigan-
tine Condominiums based upon the findings of this Committee that the plan con-
forms with the design gUidelines for site plan review and subject to the
following:
1. Parking spaces numbered 10 and 11 should indicate nine-foot
doors instead of eight-foot doors.
2. Identify the dimension on the swimming pool from the lot line.
3. The requisite initial building"permits be issued within six
months from the date of City Manager approval of the Final
Site Plan and all requisite certificates of occupancy be
issued within two years from the date of issuance of the

CIS ADDENDUM - APPROVED.
.'
Sonny Waitz gave a brief synopsis of the changes submitted on the CIS. Mr. Waitz
stated the comments on page 7 were using 2 rather than 2.2 for the average number
of persons per dwelling. This project will generate an estimated population of
approximately 220 persons; the market analysis and economical impact sections were
expanded; and that a letter ~f compliance will be furnished to the City.
Keith Crawford moved to approve the CIS Addendum as submitted.

David Healey commented the 25 foot minimum setback from the ROW needs to apply
to those privacy walls or enclosures that extend from the building. Mr. Waitz
questioned if a wooden fence under 30 inches would be acceptable. Mr. Healey
responded that if it was over 30 inches, it had to be behind the minimum setback.
Mr. IIeaIey discussed the following: if the privacy fence/enclosure extends into
the 15 foot minimum rear setback, it either needs to be pulled back or reduced in
height; the 25% useable open space requirement needs to be identified on the plan;
the imperable surt'~~ ~overage shown is 65.4% and needs to be reduced to 65%; the

needed to have 100 units and, therefore. was unable to cut any units from the project.
Cecil Henderson - See written comments (Attachment 12).
Don Beachler - See written comments (Attachment 13).
Ream Wilson - See written comments from the City Forester (Attachment 14). Mr. Wilson
submitted a preliminary Assessment of Opcn Space/Recreation Impact worksheet (Attach-
ment 15) and stated six months had elapsed since the original preliminary site plan
was approved. Since this project was starting over again. it is subject to the new
open space/recreation impact assessment fees and ordinances which were passed by
the City Commission. Mr. Wilson requested a copy of the most recent contract for
purchase of the property and a copy of the County Tax Appraiser1s assessment, just
value. The larger of those two will be used to calculate the value of the property

Keith Crawford - Commented the pavement width not including the curb and gutter
should be 24 feet wide; the dl'iveway itself should be the full width; and there
were three places on the plan showing a 20 foot pavement. plus curb and gutter.
Mr. Griffith commented that this had already been built. He admitted making a
mistake in that he thought he had gotten all of the approvals and went out to
bid. When they carne to platting just recently, he found out that he did not
have all of the approvals. Discussion ensued. Mr. Crawford responded that if
it is built. the City will go ah~ad and accept that. On these other two that
are not built. the curb line should be moved over to where it should be. If
they get built accidentally. the COs will not be issued for the building until
the problem is corrected.
David Healey - Discussed the following informational items: He strongly suggested
that this project be called something other than Park Place; the legal description
needs to be changed to Lot 2. of the R. H. Woodley Subdivision; the building height
. must be shown in feet in order to determine the setbacks (the City has presumed
that these are one-story. if that is the case, the setbacks probably work); the
'maximum imperable surface coverage is 7S. s% and should be reduced to 70%; and some
consideration should be given to the extension of the access/egress easements.

Discussion ensued regarding the process starting allover. Mr. Healey stated
that since the Site Plan Ordinance itself let alone the Park Recreation Ordinance
has been amended. this is a whole new process. Technically, this should have,
been received as a preliminary site plan--a new preliminary site plan, subdivision
plat. He further stated it is scheduled on the Commission Agenda for receipt and
referral and will corne back before the Resource Development Committee for final
site plan approval and preliminary plat recommendations. It then would be pro-
cessed under that new procedure and the new park dedication requirements applicable.

Ream Wilson - Stated the opon space impact assessment would have to be satisfied
which is 4% of the new land area which would translate into approximately 3,702
square feet. Since that is such a small piece of property, he suggested cash in
lieu of land and explained the Park Recreation Ordinance requirements. He rc-
que~ted a copy of the County's Tax Appraiser's assessment of the property plus
a copy of the most recent sales contract for the property be submitted to the
Parks and Recreation Department. The value of a square foot would then be
determined by the greater of those two to determine what the cash in lieu of
would be. Mr. Wilson stated the documents would have to be conveyed to the
City prior to the certification of the final site plan.
~Ir. Healey suggested that the Committee take the position that this is a new
submission and take thi~ like it i~ to the City Commission next week under the
agenda item already reserved and get the Commission to accept the preliminary
plan, note the things that are of concern or issue, and give Mr. Griffith a
chance to come back and address those concerns with a modified final site plan
and a preliminary plat. Mr. Healey commented he could still coordinate the
platting part of it with the Planning and Zoning Board to get Mr. Griffth back
on the Commission agenda for the 17th of November.
Chairman Haeseker commented the only other question before the Committee is the
Parks and Recreation Assessment Ordinance. Mr. Healey suggested Mr. Griffith
could appeal to the City Commission at the next meeting of Thursday, November 17th.
David Healey moved that we recommend that it be submitted as a Preliminary Site
Plan for receipt and referral by the City Commission at their November 3rd meeting
and that it proceed from that point.
The motion was seconded by Keith Crawford and carried unanimously.
\
6. DISCUSSION ONLY--Downtown Building Standards Ordinance.
Chairman Haeseker gave a brief synopsis of this item that went before the Resource
Development Committee in 1982. She stated this item was originally brought to the
ROC at the request of the Downtown Development Board through the City Manager.
The last recommendation from this Committee to the City Manager was that the
property owners should set up their own restrictive covenants or someother mechan-
ism so that they would enforce the maintenance of downtown to themselves. The
Chairman suggested the Committee look at the Mobile, Alabama Ordinance to see if
they could come up with an alternative recommendation.
Chairman Haeseker left the meet~ng and Ream Wilson served as Acting Chairman.
Mr. Healer stated the Mobile ordinance was not adopted until April of this year.
He stated further that Mobile's perception of this ordinance is that it very much
depends on a voluntary participation by the downtown group--that it isn't an
enforcement mechanism so much as it is an effort toward voluntary compliance to
upgrading the area.
'~fr. Wilson suggested if the Chairman or the City Manager wants the Conwittee to
draft a proposed ordinance, the Committee could take the ordinance that was
originally drafted together with the Mobile ordinance and to take out what the

that are not located on Cleveland Street (e.g'J Bilgore property, Tack and Warren,

and'were available to meet to pursue this at her direction.
