Re: Development Order - Minor Revision
FLD2004-04025/TDR2004-0901 1 - 521 South C
?acH1e17' Dear Mr. Zayac:
On January 18, 2005, the Community Development Board (CDB) approved with 14 conditions the above
referenced case, which was for (1) Termination of Status of a Nonconformity for density (existing 289-
rooms/units overnight accommodation use - to be converted to 241-rooms/units overnight
accommodation use and 36 dwelling units), under the provisions of Section 6-109; (2) Flexible
Development approval to permit a mixed use (241-room/unit overnight accommodation use [including
accessory restaurant, retail sales and wive runner business], 38 attached dwellings, a restaurant and an
office use) with a reduction to the fr( at north) setback from 15 feet to 3.52 feet (to existing pavement), a
reduction to the side (east) setbac.. from 10 feet to 2.95 feet (to existing pavement), an increase to
building height from 35 feet to 128 feet (to highest roof deck) with an additional 16 feet for the pinnacle
facade focal point (from highest roof deck) and with a deviation to allow direct access to a major arterial
street, as a Comprehensive Infill Redevelopment Project, under the provisions of Section 2-803.C; and (3)
Transfer of Development Rights for two dwelling units from 850 Bayway Boulevard, under the
provisions of Section 4-1403 (TDR2004-09011).
A•proposal has been submitted to revise the existing overnight accommodation building proposal with the
following:
Revise the roof plan to accommodate existing roof equipment and stair towers. Similar hip roof
caps are incorporated, while the overall mass and bulk of the roof element has been reduced in
scale. Additional embellishments have been added to the stair towers to blend in with the
proposed building. A smaller tower with a hip roof cap has also been added near the center of the
existing building to cover/enclose rooftop mechanical equipment. Previously approved roofing
materials are retained.
The elevations of the existing building being renovated have been modified to incorporate the
extended floor plan design for certain units by extending the balcony areas, including solid
portions of the facade and arches on the lower levels. The overall appearance of the renovated
existing building will more closely resemble the proposed building facade.
Due to the extended floor plan design originally approved, but incompletely integrated into the
site design, columns for these additions conflicted with a handicap access sidewalk fronting the
parking spaces adjacent to the existing building. The sidewalk has been re-routed to be adjacent

to the existing building (which is the existing location of the sidewalk). Foundation landscaping
has been switched from being adjacent to the building to being adjacent to the handicap parking
spaces.
4. A second level covered walkway connecting the new and existing buildings has been eliminated
to avoid an existing air conditioning unit and to avoid the requirement to bring the existing
building into full compliance with FEMA standards.
In accordance with Section 4-406.A of the Code, the revisions proposed are deemed to be a minor
revision and are approved. These minor revisions must reflected on building plans under BCP2005-
11740.

Enclosed please find 15 sets of plans addressing Planning Department comments for the
Entrada project as follows:
A roof plan is included in the submittal. A detailed analysis of the roof equipment,
which cannot be changed, required some reshaping of roof elements. The pavilion
roof element design is retained along with the hip roof caps, but is slightly shifted.
Additional embellishment is added to the stair towers. Overall, like the previously
approved design, the roof design helps reduce mass and bulk by using smaller scale
elements.
2. Elevations for the towers are included in the submittal. The center solid pieces of the
facade and the arched effect of the lower level are accomplished by re-routing the
ADA walkway to be adjacent to the exterior wall. The overall look of the Tower 2
phase is compatible and adds to the design effect of Entrada and the image of the
project from South Gutfview Blvd.
3. The site, grading and landscape plans have been revised to reflect the re-routing of
the sidewalk along the east facade. The revised column locations have been placed
in a planter area, and the sidewalk shifted west against the building.
4. The previously shown second level walkway connecting the buildings has been
removed. There. is an air conditioning unit at the end of the corridor which conflicts
with the connection. In addition, the connection would require improvements to the
existing building to be in conformance with current FEMA standards.

Dear Mr. Southwell:
I am in receipt of your letter of March 29 outlining the revised unit counts for the reallocation of
use for the above reference FLD case. As we discussed, we agree in principle that this can be
viewed as a minor amendment pursuant to Section 4406 of the City of Clearwater Community
Development Code.
However, please note that a change in use from overnight accommodations to residential

For that reason, I am willing to stipulate the change in use itself relative to numbers of residential
units vis a vis overnight accommodation units is acceptable. For purposes of full compliance
with 4-406 however, we will need to receive a single copy of any and all changes from that that
was originally approved. Upon DRC review of those changes, a final letter of determination of
minor change can be issued.
If you have any questions about this process, please contact Wayne Wells at 562-4504.
