ANALYSIS:
Location and Existing Conditions:
The 2.45-acre subject property is located on the
west side of South Gulfview Boulevard
approximately 500 feet northwest of Hamden
Drive and directly south of Clearwater Beach
with 235 feet of frontage along Gulf Boulevard
and 295 feet of frontage along the Gulf of
Mexico. The property spans two zoning districts
including Tourist (T) and Open Space/Recreation
(OS/R) and two corresponding Future Land Use
Plan (FLUP) classifications; Resort Facilities
High (RFH) and Water, respectively. The
portion of the site within the T District is 1.87
acres and mostly landward of the Coastal
Construction Control Line (CCCL). The
remainder of the site is 0.58 acres and is seaward
of the CCCL. The site is bounded by the CCCL
on the north and west sides. The western
submerged portion of the property is the Gulf of
Mexico. It should be noted that Section 3-905
provides that the CCCL is the line of reference
from which setbacks shall be measured along the
Gulf of Mexico for buildings and structures. It
should also be noted that only the portion of the
site within the T District is considered with
regard to development potential such as
Impervious Surface ratio (ISR), Gross Floor
Area (GFA) and density. The subject property is
also located within the South Beach/Clearwater
Pass District of Beach by Design.
The property is currently being used as a
temporary parking lot as approved by the City.
The immediate area is characterized by a variety
of uses including overnight accommodation,
retail, outdoor recreation and entertainment,
restaurant and attached dwelling uses. The 440
and 450 West attached dwelling condominiums
towers are located to the south of this subject
property and are 157 feet in height (each tower).
The properties directly east of this property are
developed with retail sales and services and
restaurant uses. The City's Beach Walk project
has been constructed transforming South

Gulfview Boulevard to the north of this site into a winding beachside promenade with lush
landscaping, artistic touches and clear views to Clearwater's award-winning beach and the water
beyond. A City public parking lot is located to the north of this property.
Site History:
The former Adam's Mark Hotel on this property closed and was subsequently demolished on
October 8, 2005 (BCP2005-09027) due to damage sustained during Hurricane Jeanne in
September 2004. The Community Development Board (CDB) has taken the following actions
since the closing of the former Adam's Mark Hotel:
➢ On April 19, 2005, the Community Development Board (CDB) approved with 10 conditions
Case Nos. FLD2005-01005/SGN2005-01016 for the (1) Termination of Status of
Nonconformity for density to allow the continuation of an existing 217-room/unit hotel
(where 74 rooms/units were permitted at that time) and for height to allow the existing 155-
foot high building (where a maximum height of 150 feet is permitted today); (2) Flexible
Development approval to permit a 217-room/unit overnight accommodation use with
reductions to setbacks, an increase to building height to 155 feet (to existing roof deck) and a
reduction to required parking from 217 to 201 spaces (existing), as a Comprehensive Infill
Redevelopment Project; (3) Reduction to the required interior landscape area, as a
Comprehensive Landscape Program; and (4) Comprehensive Sign Program approval

reductions to setbacks, increases to building height to 100 feet for the overnight
accommodation building tower and to 150 feet for the residential tower (to roof deck), a
reduction to driveway spacing from 125 feet to 90 feet and a deviation to allow direct access
to a arterial street, as a Comprehensive Infill Redevelopment Project; and (3) Transfer of
Development Rights (TDR2005-05022) of four dwelling units from 557 and 579 Cyprus
Avenue, one dwelling unit from 625-627 Bay Esplanade and three dwelling units from 667
Bay Esplanade.
➢ On January 15, 2008, the CDB approved with 15 conditions Case Nos. FLD2007-
11034/TDR2005-05022 for the (1) Termination of Status of Nonconformity for density (217
overnight accommodation units; where 93 overnight accommodation units are permitted
today); (2) Flexible Development approval to permit 230 overnight accommodation units
with reductions to setbacks, an increase to building height to 100 feet (to roof deck) and to

579 Cyprus Avenue, one dwelling unit from 625-627 Bay Esplanade and three dwelling units
from 667 Bay Esplanade.
➢ On October 24, 2008, the CDB approved with 14 conditions Case Nos. FLD2008-08024
/TDR2005-05022 for the for (1) Termination of Status of Nonconformity for density (217
overnight accommodation units (as established by Cases FLD2005-01005, FLD2005-05047
and FLD2007-11034); where 93 overnight accommodation units are permitted today), under
the provisions of Section 6-109; (2) Flexible Development approval to permit a 230-room
overnight accommodation use (hotel) in the Tourist (T) District with a lot area of 81,450
square feet/1.87 acres zoned Tourist District (2.45 total acres; 0.58 acres of total acreage
zoned Open Space/Recreation District), a lot width of 236 feet, a front (east) setback of 2.5
feet (to building) and zero feet (to pavement), a side (north) setback of zero feet (to building)
from the Coastal Construction Control Line (CCCL) and to permit a sidewalk 10 feet
seaward of the CCCL, a side (south) setback of 16 feet (to building), 1.5 feet (to pavement)
and zero feet (to privacy wall), a rear (west) setback of two feet (to building) from the CCCL
and to permit concrete patios 13 feet seaward of the CCCL, a building height of 150 feet
above Base Flood Elevation (BFE) to top of roof deck and 296 valet-only parking spaces at
1.286 parking spaces per hotel room, as a Comprehensive Infill Redevelopment Project,
under the provisions of Section 2-803.C, and three driveways where the two northernmost
driveways are spaced 110 feet apart and the two southernmost driveways are spaced 18 feet
apart, where 125 feet is required by Section 3-102 and approval of a two-year development
order; and (3) including the Transfer of Development Rights of eight total dwelling units
(being converted to 13 overnight accommodation units) previously approved and transferred
under TDR2005-05022, including four dwelling units from 557 and 579 Cyprus Avenue, one
dwelling unit from 625-627 Bay Esplanade and three dwelling units from 667 Bay
Esplanade, under the provisions of Section 4-1402.
Each of the above site plan approvals have since expired. It is important to note that the
Termination of Status of Nonconformity (TSN) request for density and the Transfer of
Development Rights (TDR) run with the land irrespective of the status of any associated site plan
approvals. In other words, the density has been approved and no further request for that density
is required however, the method (or means) of using that density has expired and must be
resubmitted for approval.
Development Proposal:
The proposal is to construct a new hotel building on the property consisting of 230 overnight
accommodation units with a variety of accessory uses such as restaurants, retail, meeting and
ballroom space and a gym and spa. As mentioned, the nonconforming status of the prior hotel
density has been determined to be valid, even though the hotel was demolished, due to the status
of the approval of aforementioned approved Flexible Development applications. It should be
noted that on the index sheet of the submitted site plan set a data table lists the number of
proposed rooms as both 230 room and as 261 rooms. This discrepancy is attributable to the
architect's software which calculates the number of rooms literally by the number of actual guest
rooms. It is important to note that suites may include more than one physical room and therefore
are counted more than once by the project's architect. In addition, when tallied floor by floor,
the counted number of rooms is 229. The applicant has reserved the right to make minor interior

,� ;�~�~�•
changes prior to the issuance of any permits to reconfigure the floor plans to result in a
maximum of 230 rooms. Therefore, the applicant is, indeed, proposing 230 units.
The existing parking lot and all other structures on site will be removed with the proposal.
Setback reductions beyond that as otherwise permitted as a Level One Flexible Standard
Development review are requested on the front (east) side with zero feet (to porte cochere), three
feet (to pavement) and zero feet (to planter/art/fountain feature), side (south) with 1.5 feet (to
pavement) and four feet (to trash compactor enclosure) and on the rear (west) with one foot (to
building), four feet (to gazebo) and zero feet (to concrete patios, sun and pool decks and like
accessory structures) from the CCCL. The request also requests flexibility from the CDC to
permit encroachments past the CCCL on side (north) for a balcony and sundeck (one foot and
eight feet, respectively) northward of the CCCL as well as concrete patios, sun and pool decks
and like accessory structures up 28 feet seaward of the CCCL. In addition to the setback
reductions and CCCL encroachments, the application also includes a height of 150 feet as
measured from BFE.
The submitted site plan also includes a"non-structural sand ramp" which would provide access
for guests of the hotel to the beach area to the north of the site. The "ramp is not a part of this
site plan and must be approved by others.
The proposed hotel building has a distinctive contemporary design that will make it an attractive
landmark at this location. From a bird's eye view, the 150-foot tall, tower portion of the building
will look like a crescent or arc on top of a four-story base. The base of the building will contain
three floors of parking as well as a variety of amenities including meeting rooms, a ballroom,
bar, restaurant, fitness center and other support services. It should be reiterated that all parking
will be located completely within the base of the building with no surface parking provided. The
overall effect will provide for a stepped massing of the building with the bulk of the tower
approximately 100 feet from the front (east) property line along Gulfview Boulevard. The
nearest point of the tower will be approximately 26 feet from this property line. The building
design provides all hotel units with water views and provides easy access for all guests to access
the public beach and nearby businesses. The building's shape, a thin, tiered curve, will act as a
focal point of views from the adjacent beach to the north visually linking the Beach Walk
District and South Beach/Clearwater Pass Districts. Development of the proposed hotel on this
property will not impede the future redevelopment of properties in the area. It is not anticipated
that properties to the north (beach) and south (440 West condominiums) will be redeveloped in
the near future. Properties across South Gulfview Boulevard to the east are developed a variety
of uses including restaurant, overnight accommodations and retail.

Transfer of Development Rights minimum requirement of a 100-foot separation. The materials
and color of the building will support the streamline language of the architecture and its natural
surroundings. The building will be painted linen ruffle white, accented by alabaster. The
window mullions, railing caps and decorative grills will be arcadia silver. Balcony railings will
be clear glass or cables. The pool area is located at the northwesterly portion of the site, adjacent
to the beach, to minimize noise and visual distractions and impacts to the 440 West
condominiums to the south. With the height and location of the adjacent 440 West
condominiums, the proposed hotel design is compatible with the surrounding uses.
As mentioned, all parking for the hotel guests and employees is provided within the first three
floors of the building. A total of 335 spaces are provided which results in a ratio of 1.45 parking
spaces per hotel room. All parking will be valet parked. While all three parking levels can be
serviced via two hydraulically powered freight elevators the parking spaces located on Level
1/P-3 are solely accessed by these elevators. The parking spaces on Levels P-1 and 2 can also be
accessed via ramps. As mentioned, no guests or other public will access the parking garage;
valet employees will be only ones who will park and retrieve vehicles from the parking garage.
The parking garage will include numerous stacked or tandem spaces, where at least one car must
be moved to get the desired car out.
The site is designed with three driveways on South Gulfview Boulevard. The northern driveway
will be an entrance only, providing access to the porte cochere for the valet service, middle exit-
only driveway for guests and a southern driveway for service and delivery vehicles as well as
solid waste. The garage will be accessed by valet drivers on the south side of the building.
The applicant anticipates the proposed hotel will create approximately 300 new jobs.
The proposal also includes eliminating the provision of canopy trees on site and fulfilling this
requirement through the provision of palm and understory trees. The site will include extensive
landscaping along the north, south and east sides of the site as well as along the front (east)
fa�ade of the building through the provision of a variety of plant material including specimen
medjool date palms, silver buttonwood, sabal palms, plumbago, sea grape and sea oats.
The site is designed to be pedestrian-friendly with the provision of a 10 foot wide sidewalk along
South Gulfview Boulevard. The sidewalk will be connect to and match the existing sidewalk to
the north with regard to materials, fit and finish. Bricker pavers will be used where the sidewalk
crosses a driveway. Sabal palms will be located along the east side of the sidewalk as street tree
plantings continuing the existing pattern of street tree plantings to the north and south of the site
on either side of South Gulfview Boulevard. Where the sidewalk crosses a driveway the paving
material and pattern will change.
The applicant is requesting a two-year development order due to market conditions. Section 4-
407 specifies that an application for a building permit must be submitted within one year of the
date the CDB approves the project, unless otherwise specified under this approval.

Special Area Plan:
Beach bv Design: South Beach/Clearwater Pass District
The City has demonstrated through the creation of Beach by Design and subsequent amendments
to this plan that it recognizes the need for pedestrian-friendly development in order to create a
vibrant active resort and waterfront destination serving tourists and locals alike. It is understood
that a broad range of uses including retail sales and service, hotels and motels and restaurants
contribute to the creation of the unique character and atmosphere that is Clearwater Beach. The
vision of the South Beach/Clearwater Pass District of Beach by Design recognizes that this
district is a distinctive area of mixed use, high-rise condominiums, low- to mid-rise hotels,
outdoor recreation and tourist- and neighborhood-serving retail uses. The document
acknowledges that development within the District may be inhibited by though the lack of
availability of off-street parking. This development would further the trend of quality
redevelopment and/or improvements of properties along South Gulfview Boulevard within the
District including the Harborview Grande, the Entrada and Shephard's.
Beach bv Design: Section VII. Design Guidelines:
Section A specifically addresses the issue of density. The proposal includes 230 overnight
accommodation units. Based on the size of the portion of the site within the T district (1.87) 93
units would be typically permitted where the proposed density is 230 units. This figure includes
217 units which were provided by the previous development on the site (the Adam's mark Hotel)
and were the subject of a Termination of Status of Nonconformity (case nos. FLD2005-01005,
FLD2005-05047, FLD2007-11034 and FLD2008-08024). The request for Termination of Status
of Nonconformity with regard to density was approved in each case. In addition, a request for a
Transfer of Development Rights (TDR2005-05022) which included eight residential units (the
equivalent of 13 overnight accommodation units) was approved and the transfer of these units
was duly recorded. Therefore, the total permitted number of overnight accommodation units
associated with the site is 230 units. In must be noted that the use of these units, some of which
were the subject of the aforementioned TDR, is limited by a projects ability to demonstrate
compliance with the provisions of this Plan, the Community Development Code and concurrency
requirements. The analysis provided in this document will demonstrate compliance with this
provision.
Section B specifically addresses height. The proposal provides for a building 150 feet in height
as measured from BFE where a height of up to 150 feet is permitted where additional density is
allocated to the development either by TDRs, or via the Destination Resort Density Pool
pursuant to the CRD designation, or via the Hotel Density Reserve where the subject property is
located between South Gulfview Boulevard and the Gulf of Mexico or on the west side of
Coronado Drive. Density, as discussed previously in this document, has been augmented
through the use a TDR and the subject property is located between South Gulfview Boulevard
and the Gulf of Mexico.
This section also requires that portions of any structures which exceed 100 feet are spaced at
least 100 feet apart. The portions of the 440 West condominiums to the south which exceed 100
feet in height are approximately 107 feet from the portion of the proposed building that exceeds
100 feet in height. This section also includes overall separation requirements for structures over

100 feet in height as two options: (1) no more than two structures which exceed 100 feet within
500 feet; or (2) no more than four structures which exceed 100 feet within 800 feet.
The proposal provides for a building which exceeds 100 feet in height. The applicant has
demonstrated that there are no more than two structures which exceed 100 feet within 500 feet
thereby fulfilling the requirements of Option 2, above.
Finally, this section provides that the floorplate of any portion of a building that exceeds
45 feet in height is limited as follows:
a) Between 45 feet and 100 feet the floorplate will be no greater than 25,000 square feet
except for parking structures open to the public; and
b) Between 100 feet and 150 feet, the floorplate will be no greater than 10,000 square feet;
and
c) Deviations to the above floorplate requirements may be approved provided the mass and
scale of the design creates a tiered effect and complies with the maximum building
envelop allowance above 45 feet as described in Section C. 1.4 of the Design Guidelines.
The proposal does not meet this provision in that the floorplate above 100 feet is 12,837. This
exceedance is mitigated by the fact that approximately 22 percent of the theoretical building
envelope will be occupied by the building where the maximum amount is 60 percent.
Therefore, this section is supported by the proposal.
Section C addresses issues relating to design, scale and building mass. These topics are
quantified in six parts as follows:
Section C.1 requires buildings with a footprint of greater than 5,000 square feet or a single
dimension greater than 100 feet to be constructed so that no more than two of the three
building dimensions in the vertical or horizontal planes are equal in length. The proposed
building footprint is 57,480 square feet. Given the curvilinear shape of the tower and the
variety of building stepbacks, no two building dimensions are equal in length. Therefore,
this provision is supported by the proposal.
Section C.2 requires no plane or elevation to continue uninterrupted for greater than 100 feet
without an offset of more than five feet. No portion of the building fa�ade continues for
more than 100 feet in length. The single largest feature of the building is the tower. This
portion of the building is curvilinear in form resulting in a continuously curving fa�ade. The
base of the building incorporates a series of articulations of the fenestration with the single
longest fa�ade extending approximately 75 feet. Therefore, this provision is supported by the
proposal.
Section C.3 requires at least 60 percent of any elevation (with elevation being defined as that
portion of a building that is visible from a particular point outside the parcel proposed for
development) to be covered with windows or architectural decoration. The application
indicates compliance with this requirement using windows, balconies and architectural
details including decorative grilles, stucco reveals and similar deta.iling on all facades.

������ �.:� -
Coverage ranges between 61 and 70 percent of any given fa�ade. Therefore, this provision is
supported by the proposal.
Section C.4 provides that no more than 60 percent of the theoretical maximum building
envelope located above 45 feet will be occupied by a building. The applicant has
demonstrated that the overall building mass between 45 and 150 feet constitutes
approximately 22 percent of the theoretical maximum building envelope. Therefore, this
provision is supported by the proposal.
Section C.S requires that the height and mass of buildings will be correlated to: (1) the
dimensional aspects of the parcel proposed for development and (2) adjacent public spaces
such as streets and parks. The adjacent South Gulfview Boulevard right-of-way is 70 feet in
width. The closest point of the tower to the east (front) property line is 26 feet. This portion
of the tower is also the narrowest. The bulk of the tower is 100 feet or more from the right-
of-way. The four-story base of the building, consistent in height with many other buildings
in the area is approximately 40 feet from the street right-of-way. The resulting effect is that
the bulk of the mass of the building is setback approximately 100 feet from the street right-
of-way. Therefore, this provision is supported by the proposal.
Section C.6 permits buildings to be designed for a vertical or horizontal mix of permitted
uses. The proposal is for a single use; overnight accommodations. Therefore, this guideline
is not applicable to the development.
Section D addresses the issues of sidewalk widths, setbacks and stepbacks. The distance
between the edge of the right-of-way along arterials and a building should be a minimum of 28
feet where the proposal provides a distance of zero feet along South Gulfview Boulevard and the
leading edge of the porte cochere and 26 feet to the building proper. As the porte cochere is open
in design there is no inherent conflict between this provision and the submittal. In addition,
pedestrian paths 10 feet in width are an important component of fostering a pedestrian-friendly
environment. As such, the proposal includes a 10-foot wide sidewalk along South Gulfview
Boulevard. The sidewalk will tie into the existing sidewalk to the north and south of the site
matching the existing sidewalk with regard to fit, finish and materials. Therefore, this Guideline
is met by this proposal.
Section E addresses issues of street-level facades and the incorporation of human-scale features
into the facades of buildings. The proposed building provides for a modern, streamlined building
design with an extensive use of glass which mitigates the bulk of the building. In addition, the
site plan includes an extensive use of landscaping as well as the provision of a human-scaled
artlwater feature component directly along the proposed sidewalk along South Gulfview
Boulevard. Therefore, this Guideline is met by this proposal.
Section F addresses issues related to parking areas. Parking is addressed via three floors of
structured parking completely integrated into the design of the building. Vehicular access and
direction of flow will be clearly marked with the north driveway serving as an entrance-only
drive and the center driveway serving as an exit-only drive. The southernmost driveway will

provide access to the entrance to the parking facility. As mentioned, the parking garage
component will be serviced solely by valets. Therefore, this Guideline is met by this proposal.
Section G addresses issues related to signage. A sign package has not been included with the
submittal. Any proposed signage will be required to meet the requirements of this section of
Beach by Design and any applicable portions of the Community Development Code.
Section H addresses issues related to sidewalks (also addressed in part by Section D, above) and
provides that all sidewalks along arterials and retail streets should be at least 10 feet in width.
The proposal includes a 10-foot wide sidewalk along South Gulfview Boulevard. The sidewalk
will tie into the existing sidewalk to the north and south of the site matching the existing
sidewalk with regard to fit, iinish and materials. Therefore, this Guideline is met by this
proposal.
Section 1 addresses issues related to street furniture and bicycle racks. Street furniture, bicycle
racks and the like are not proposed with this development. However, the applicant will
coordinate with City Staff with regard to the placement and installation methodology for any
street furniture which may be proposed at time of permit submittal. Therefore, this Guideline is
not� applicable to this proposal.
Section J addresses issues related to street lighting. Street lighting is not proposed with this
development. Therefore, this section is not applicable to the proposal.
Section K addresses issues related to fountains. A fountain is not proposed with this
development. Therefore, this section is not applicable to the proposal.
Section L addresses issues related to materials and colors. Finish materials and building colors
are required to reflect Florida or coastal vernacular themes. The proposed hotel building has a
distinctive contemporary design that will make it an attractive landmark at this location. From a
bird's eye view, the 150-foot tall, tower portion of the building will look like a crescent or arc on
top of a four-story base. The building's shape, a thin, tiered curve, will act as a focal point of
views from the adjacent beach to the north visually linking the Beach Wa1k District and South
Beach/Clearwater Pass Districts. The building will be painted linen ruffle white, accented by
alabaster. The window mullions, railing caps and decorative grills will be arcadia silver.
Balcony railings will be clear glass or cables. The applicant may adjust the color scheme
however any such adjustment would require Staff approval and must meet the requirements of
this portion of the Design Guidelines. The proposed color scheme and material schedule meets
the requirements of this section.
Development Parameters
Note: All development parameters are based only on the 1.87-acre portion of the site within the T district.
Densi :
Pursuant to the Countywide Future Land Use Plan and CDC Section 2-801.1, the maximum
density for properties with a designation of Resort Facilities High is 50 overnight
accommodation units per acre. Based on the 1.87 acres zoned T District, a maximum of 93
overnight accommodation units would normally be permissible under current regulations. The

former Adam's Mark Hotel had 217 units, which was nonconforming to current regulations. The
applicant requested, and was granted approval of, a Termination of Status of Nonconformity
with regard to density. The applicant also received approval of a TDR that included the transfer
of eight dwelling units to this property from three other properties on the beach. Based on a
conversion factor of 1.67 (50 overnight accommodation units to 30 dwelling units), these eight
dwelling units convert to 13 overnight accommodation units. Therefore, given the fact that the
Tertnination of Status of Nonconformity and TDR requests have been approved, the proposed
number of hotel units (230) is considered conforming.
Impervious Sur�ace Ratio (ISR):
Pursuant to the Countywide Future Land Use Plan and CDC Section 2-801.1, the maximum
allowable ISR is 0.95. The overall proposed ISR is 0.91, which is consistent with the Plan and
this Code provision.
Minimum Lot Area and Width:
Pursuant to CDC Table 2-803, there are no minimum required setbacks for a Comprehensive
Infill Redevelopment Project. However, for a point of comparison, pursuant to CDC Table 2-803
the minimum lot area for overnight accommodations is 20,000 square feet. The subject property
is 81,450 square feet in area landward of the seawall (zoned Tourist District). Pursuant to the
same Table, the minimum lot width for overnight accommodations can range between 100 — 150
feet. The lot width of this site along South Gulfview Boulevard is 236 feet. The proposal is
consistent with these Code provisions.
Minimum Setbacks:
Pursuant to CDC Table 2-803, there are no minimum required setbacks for a Comprehensive
Infill Redevelopment Project. However, for a point of comparison, pursuant to CDC Table 2-
803, the minimum front setback for overnight accommodation uses can range between zero and
15 feet, minimum side setback between zero and 10 feet and minimum rear setback between zero
and 20 feet. The CCCL traverses the site along the north and west sides. Section 3-905.A
requires setbacks to be measured from the CCCL. This CDC Section also provides that no
building or structure shall be located seaward of the coastal construction control line unless
approved by the State of Florida and that any request to modify the setback requirements
contained in this section shall be considered as an application for a Level Two approval.
The proposal includes a front (east) setback of 27 feet (to building), 22 feet (to edge of balcony),
zero feet (to porte cochere), three feet (to pavement) and zero feet (to planter/art/fountain
feature), a side (north) setback of zero feet (to building) from the Coastal Construction Control
Line (CCCL) and to permit a balcony and sundeck one foot and eight feet, respectively,
northward of the CCCL, a side (south) setback of four feet (to building) and 1.5 feet (to
pavement), a rear (west) setback of one foot (to building), four feet (to gazebo) and zero feet (to
concrete patios, sun and pool decks and like accessory structures) from the CCCL and to permit
concrete patios, sun and pool decks and like accessory structures up to 28 feet seaward of the
CCCL. The proposal does not meet the setback requirements of CDC Table 2-802 or 2-803 for
overnight accommodations and must therefore be reviewed as a Comprehensive Infill
Redevelopment Program as part of a Level II Flexible Development.

The tower portion of the proposed building is set back 30 feet at its northeast corner from the
front (east) property line along South Gulfview Boulevard. The southeast corner of the building
is set back approximately 42 feet from the front property line. The porte cochere is setback 28
feet from the front property line. The drive aisle that runs under the port cochere is
approximately 10 feet from the front property line. In response to past 440 West condominium
resident requests in order to mitigate negative views and noise from the loading area, the
applicant is proposing a six-foot high wall along a portion of the south property line as was
proposed with the most recently approved site plan (FLD2008-08024). The CCCL along the
north property line runs at an angle to, rather than parallel with, the north property line, being
narrower at the front property line and wider towards the seawall at the rear of the building.
Along the rear (west) side of the site the CCCL and the seawall diverge by approximately 10
feet. The proposed setback to the side (north) setback to zero feet to the building is at the
western portion of the building where the CCCL extends the greatest distance onto the property.
The tower will be set back approximately four feet from the north CCCL with the balconies at
the northeast corner of the building encroaching one foot past the CCCL. Bearing in mind that
the CCCL runs south of the north property line the tower will be approximately seven feet from
the north property line at its closest point. On the west side of the property, the building
footprint will be between one and 10 feet from the CCCL. The west property line extends
another 96 feet west of the CCCL into the Gulf of Mexico. Concrete decking extends up to 28
feet past the CCCL and cantilevers up to 15 feet past the seawall. The purpose of cantilevering
past the seawall is to simply cover the rip-rap which exists adjacent to the seawall. The proposed
tower portion of the building is set back approximately 77 feet from the western CCCL. It must
be mentioned that the Building Code requires an 18-foot setback from a seawall. Any approval
of this application is conditioned, at least in part, on the applicant receiving approval from the
State for any structure extending past the CCCL. Additionally, any approval should be
conditioned on the applicant receiving a variance from the seawall setbacks according to the
Building Code.
Maximum Buildin� Height:
Pursuant to CDC Table 2-803, there is no maximum height for a Comprehensive Infill
Redevelopment Project. However, for a point of comparison, pursuant to the aforementioned
CDC Table 2-802, the maximum allowable height for overnight accommodations can range
between 35 and 50 feet. CDC Table 2-803 permits overnight accommodations at a height of
between 100 and 150 feet. As examined in detail, above, Beach by Design provides further
clarification as to the circumstances under which height may be increased to 150 feet. The
proposed building height of 150 feet from Base Flood Elevation (BFE) to the highest roof
structure is generally permitted as the site received density via a TDR and the building meets all
applicable portions of the Design Guidelines. This site is located within the South
Beach/Clearwater Pass District of Beach by Design, which is indicated as a distinctive area of
mixed use, including high-rise condominiums and resort hotels. The applicant has submitted
documentation indicating compliance with the Beach by Design criteria relating to minimum
distanced between structures which exceed 100 feet in height and the number of buildings which
exceed 100 feet in height within given distances of each other. The proposal also complies with
the Code requirements under the definition of "Height, Building or Structure" for elevator and
stair overruns and mechanical rooms, which are permitted to extend a maa�imum of 16 feet above
the otherwise permitted height. Since both portions of the roof ineet the maximum height

limitations of the Code and Beach by Design, the definition of "Height, Building or Structure"
does not allow rooftop occupancy by the public or guests. Approval of this request should be
conditioned prohibiting such rooftop use. The design of this project creates a form and function
that will be consistent with and enhance the character of this area.
Minimum O�f-street Parkin�
Pursuant to CDC Table 2-803 and 2-803, there is no minimum off-street parking requirement for
Comprehensive Infill Redevelopment Projects. However, as a point of references these two
tables do require 1.2 and between one and 1.2 spaces per unit, respectively (between 230 and 276
spaces. Parking for the hotel guests and employees is provided within the frst three floors of
the building and includes 335 spaces (1.44 spaces per unit), which will be 100 percent valet
parked. Of the 335 parking spaces provided, 184 spaces are designed as stacked or tandem
spaces where another car must be moved to get the stacked or tandem car out. The parking
garage must comply with the Building Code and have a vertical clear height for all parking
garage levels of not less than seven feet including the entrance and exit. This clear height
includes any structural beams, fire sprinkler pipes and heads, electrical conduits and lighting,
drainage pipes and any other building elements. The proposal is therefore consistent with the
Code provisions of Article 2 Division 8 and Beach by Design and no flexibility from the Code is
necessary.
Mechanical Ec�uipment:
Pursuant to CDC Sections 3-201.D.1 and 3-903.I, all outside mechanical equipment must be
screened so as not to be visible from public streets and/or abutting properties. There will be
mechanical equipment located within and on the roof of the building. The equipment on the roof
area will be adequately screened from view from adjacent properties and rights-of-way by solid
screening. This screening of the mechanical equipment will also be reviewed at time of the
building permit submission.
Sight Visibili , Triangles:
Pursuant to CDC Section 3-904.A, to minimize hazards at the intersection of streets andlor
driveways, no structures or landscaping may be installed which will obstruct views at a level
between 30 inches above grade and eight feet above grade within 20-foot sight visibility
triangles. This proposal does not propose any structures within the required sight visibility
triangles and landscaping within them will be limited to groundcovers and low shrubs,
complying with this provision. This proposal has been reviewed by the City's Traffic
Engineering Department and been found to be acceptable. Landscaping located within the sight
visibility triangles will need to be maintained to meet the Code requirements.
Utilities:
Pursuant to CDC Section 3-912, for development that does not involve a subdivision, all utilities
including individual distribution lines must be installed underground unless such undergrounding
is not practicable. There are no existing overhead utility lines, serving this development, within
the rights-of-way along the west side of South Gulfview Boulevard. All utilities that will serve
the site will be placed underground.

Landscapin�:
Pursuant to CDC Section 3-1202.D, there are no perimeter buffers required in the Tourist District
for this site. This proposal meets the required minimum five-foot wide foundation planting along
the east side of the building. The proposal also includes perimeter landscape buffers
approximately 10 feet in width along the east side of the site along South Gulfview Boulevard,
between five and 120 feet in width along the north side of the site and between four and nine feet
in width along most of the south side of the site. The landscape design incorporates plant material
that is native andlor naturalized and salt tolerant, while providing visual interest. Medjool Date
Palms are proposed along the front of the site to provide height and scale to the building. The
pedestrian scale along South Gulfview Boulevard will be enhanced with accent shrubs and dense
groundcover beds. The north and south sides of the building will be enhanced with Cabbage Palms
and other salt tolerant vegetation to create a landscape that will contribute to the overall sense of
place and be coordinated with Beach Walk improvements to provide a seamless feel between
properties. The site will also be planted with silver buttonwood, plumbago, sea grape and sea
oats.
Solid Waste:
The proposal will utilize hotel housekeeping staff to remove trash from units and transport the
trash to the trash compactor located on the south side of the property. A storage room for
recyclables is also provided adjacent to the loading area. The proposal has been found to be
acceptable by the City's Solid Waste Department.
Si�na�e:
The proposal does not include a freestanding sign at this time. However, any future freestanding
sign must be designed as a monument-style sign, maintain a setback of iive feet, match the
exterior materials and color of the building and be a maximum height of six feet. Attached
signage is not proposed at this time but must also meet Code requirements. All signage will be
required to meet the applicable portions of the Community Development Code and the Design
Guidelines of Beach by Design.
Comprehensive Plan:
The proposal is supported by applicable various Goals, Objectives and/or Policies of the City's
Comprehensive Plan as follows:
Future Land Use Plan Element
Policy A.1.2.1 - The City shall require new or redeveloped overnight accommodations uses
located within the City's coastal storm area to have a hurricane evacuation plan, approved by
the City, for all guests. This plan shall require the commencement of evacuation of hotel guests
as soon as a hurricane watch is posted for the City.
A Hurricane Evacuation Plan will be submitted to and approved by the City prior to the issuance
of any permits. Therefore, the proposal will support this Policy
Policy A.3.2.1 - All new development or redevelopment of properry within the City of Clearwater
shall meet all landscape requirements of the Community Development Code.

The proposal, as discussed, meets the requirements of the CDC providing foundation planting
along the east fa�ade of the building and perimeter landscaping along the north, south and east
sides of the site and supports this Policy.
Objective A.5.5 - Promote high quality design standards that support Clearwater's image and
contribute to its identity.
The proposal includes the redevelopment of lot currently developed with a public parking lot.
The prior use of the site was overnight accommodations (Adam's Mark Hotel). The proposal
includes a new attractive overnight accommodations use. The proposed hotel meets the
requirements of the Design Guidelines of Beach by Design, is supported by the vision of the
South Beach/Clearwater Pass District and supports this Objective.
Policy A. S. S.1 Development should be designed to maintain and support the existing or
envisioned character of the neighborhood.
As mentioned above, the proposal is consistent with the vision of Beach by Design, the South
Beach/Clearwater Pass District and the Design Guidelines and supports this Policy.
Objective A.6.1 - The redevelopment of blighted, substandard, inefficient and/or obsolete areas
shall be a high priority and promoted through the implementation o�'redevelopment and special
area plans, the construction of catalytic private projects, city investment, and continued
emphasis on property maintenance standards.
In adopting Beach by Design the City recognized that large portions of the Beach could be
classified as blighted, substandard and suffered from "obsolescence and age". One of the goals
of Beach by Design is to reverse this trend of disinvestment. This goal is well on the way to
being met (perhaps even exceeded) in many areas of the Beach. The South Beach/Clearwater
Pass District is one area that has seen a great deal of redevelopment activity. The proposed hotel
should be seen as an important linchpin in tying the Beach Walk District with the South
Beach/Clearwater Pass District and one more step in the revitalization of the Beach and supports
this Objective.
Policy A.6.1.2 - Renewal of the beach tourist district shall be encouraged through the
establishment of distinct districts within Clearwater Beach, the establishment of a limited density
pool of additional hotel rooms to be used in specified geographic areas of Clearwater Beach,
enhancement of public rights-of-way, the vacation of public rights-of-way when appropriate,
transportation improvements, inter-beach and intra-beach transit, transfer of development rights
and the use of design guidelines, pursuant to Beach by Design: A Preliminary Design for
Clearwater Beach and Design Guidelines.
As explored previously in this document, the site was the subject of a Termination of Status of
Nonconformity which allowed all 217 hotel units to remain on the site where the otherwise
permitted density is 93 units. In addition, the site was the recipient of an approval of the transfer
of eight dwelling units (13 overnight accommodation units) for a total of 230 permitted units.
The redevelopment of this parcel with a hotel will play an important role in the renewal and
revitalization of the Beach. Therefore, the proposal supports this Policy.

Objective A.6.6 - Tourism is a substantial element of the City's economic base and as such the
City shall continue to support the maintenance and enhancement of this important economic
sector.
Policy A.6.6.1 - The City supports and encourages the continued development and
redevelopment of overnight accommodation uses.
The proposed redevelopment includes an overnight accommodation use which will serve tourists
and locals alike contributing to a vibrant successful resort destination and supports this Objective
and Policy.
Policy A.6.8.3 - Where appropriate, development shall provide a sense of pedestrian scale on
streets through minimal front setbacks, similar building heights, street trees and proportionality
of building heights to street widths.
The proposal includes a significant overnight accommodation use with an overall height of 150
feet. However, this height is mitigated in several ways:
1. The bulk of the building is a curvilinear tower setback on the west portion of the site;
2. The base of the building is four-stories which is similar in height to other buildings in the
immediate vicinity;
3. Lush landscaping will be provided along the fa�ade of the building facing South Gulfview
Boulevard as well as along the east property line; and
4. A sidewalk ten feet in width with street tree plantings will be located along South Gulfview
Boulevard and will tie into and match with regard to fit, finish and materials the sidewalks to
the north and south.
The overall effect of the proposal will pedestrian-scale consistent with the goals and vision of
Beach by Design and the South Beach/Clearwater Pass District and supports this Policy.
Community Development Code:
The proposal is supported by the general purpose, intent and basic planning objectives of this
Code as follows:
Section 1-103.B.1. Allowing property owners to enhance the value of their property through
innovative and creative redevelopment.
The property owner will redevelop an underutilized property with a new attractive building, a
vibrant use (overnight accommodations) and contribute to the public space with a sidewalk
between 10 feet in width along South Gulfview Boulevard. The development is considered
innovate by the use of a curvilinear tower and the use of density through a previously-approved
TDRs and Termination of Status of Nonconformity. Therefore, the proposal supports this CDC
Section.
Section 1-103.B.2. Ensuring that development and redevelopment will not have a negative
impact on the value of surrounding properties and wherever practicable promoting development
and redevelopment which will enhance the value of surrounding properties.
Surrounding properties are generally developed with a myriad of uses indicative of a tourist
destination including overnight accommodations, retail sales and services, bars, nightclubs,
outdoor recreation and entertainment, restaurants and attached dwellings. The proposed hotel
will constitute an appropriate use for the neighborhood and is a targeted desired use within the

South Beach/Clearwater Pass District of Beach by Design. Surrounding properties will be
enhanced through the addition of a use which will contribute to an active and vibrant street life.
Therefore, the proposal supports this CDC Section.
Section 1-103.B.3. Strengthening the city's economy and increasing its tax base as a whole.
The proposal includes the redevelopment of what is essentially a vacant parcel in one of the more
valuable areas of the City vis-a-vis tourism. The new hotel is expected to create approximately
300 new jobs and will positively contributing to the City's economy and its tax base. Therefore,
the proposal supports this CDC Section.
Section 1-103. D. It is the further purpose of this Development Code to make the beautification of
the city a matter of the highest priority and to require that existing and future uses and structures
in the city are attractive and well-maintained to the maximum extent permitted by law.
The proposal includes a new attractive building characterized by a modern style and crisp, clean
lines.
This proposal meets the required minimum five-foot wide building foundation landscape area
along South Gulfview Boulevard. The applicant has provided perimeter plantings most of the
north and south sides of the site as well as along South Gulfview Boulevard. The landscape design
incorporates plant material that is native and/or naturalized and salt tolerant, while providing visual
interest. Medjool Date Palms are proposed along the front of the site to provide height and scale to
the building. The pedestrian scale along South Gulfview Boulevard will be enhanced with accent
shrubs and dense groundcover beds. The north and south sides of the building will be enhanced
with Cabbage Palms and other salt tolerant vegetation to create a landscape that will contribute to
the overall sense of place and be coordinated with Beach Walk improvements to provide a
seamless feel between properties. The site will also be planted with silver buttonwood, plumbago,
sea grape and sea oats. Therefore, the proposal supports this CDC Section.
Section 1-103. E. 5. Preserve the natural resources and aesthetic character of the community for
both the resident and tourist population consistent with the city's economic underpinnings.
The proposal will support both the resident and tourist populations with a new hotel and a 10-
foot wide sidewalk along South Gulfview Boulevard. The proposal will be consistent with
regard to the desired form and function of the South Beach/Clearwater Pass District of Beach by
Design and meets the Design Guidelines of that document. Therefore, the proposal supports this
CDC Section.
The proposal supports the General Applicability requirements of this Code as follows:
Section 3-914.A.1. The proposed development of the land will be in harmony with the scale, bulk,
coverage, density and character of adjacent properties in which it is located.
The proposal includes a 230-unit hotel within a single 14-story building with 10 floors of guest
rooms/suites above four floors of parking and assorted accessory uses such as restaurants, bar,
gym, spa, ballroom and meeting spaces. The proposed hotel building has a distinctive
contemporary design that will make it an attractive landmark at this location. From a bird's eye
view, the 150-foot tall, tower portion of the building will look like a crescent or arc on top of the
four-story base. The subject site is surrounded by a myriad of uses indicative of a tourist

destination including overnight accommodations, retail sales and services, bars, nightclubs,
outdoor recreation and entertainment, restaurants and attached dwellings. The proposed hotel
will constitute an appropriate use for the neighborhood and is a targeted desired use within the
South Beach/Clearwater Pass District of Beach by Design. The proposal includes lush
landscaping which exceeds the intent of the CDC and will complement and enhance surrounding
properties. The 440 and 450 West attached dwelling condominiums towers are located to the
south of this subject property and are 157 feet in height (each tower). Otherwise, the immediate
vicinity is typified by buildings between two and nine floors. Therefore, the proposal supports
this Code section.
Section 3-914.A.2. The proposed development will not hinder or discourage development and
use of adjacent land and buildings or significantly impair the value thereof.
The proposal is, as discussed in relation to CDC Section 3-914.A.1, above, consistent with the
character of adjacent properties and with the intent and vision of Beach by Design, the South
Beach/Clearwater Pass District and the Design Guidelines. The applicant has shown through
substantial competent evidence that the proposal is similar in nature vis-a-vis form and function
to adjacent and nearby properties. As mentioned, this site is one of the few undeveloped
properties on the beach with all other properties and specifically adjacent properties fully
developed with a myriad of uses including mixed use, high-rise condominiums, resort hotels,
outdoor recreation and entertainment, retail uses and other uses indicative of a tourist destination.
The proposal will not impair the value of adjacent properties. Therefore, the proposal is
consistent with this CDC Section.
Section 3-914.A.3. The proposed development will not adversely affect the health or safety of
persons residing or working in the neighborhood.
The proposal will likely have no effect, negative or otherwise, on the health or safety of persons
residing or working in the neighborhood. Therefore, the proposal is consistent with this CDC
Section.
Section 3-914.A.4. The proposed development is designed to minimize traffic congestion.
The proposal has been designed to have a minimal effect on traffic congestion. Naturally, the
development of a resort hotel will increase the amount of traffic in the area. However, this
expected increase in traffic has been mitigated with valet service for parking, adequate on-site
stacking space and two methods of delivering vehicles to the parking levels (ramps and freight
elevators). Therefore, the proposal is consistent with this CDC Section.
Section 3-914.A. S. The proposed development is consistent with the community character of the
immediate vicinity.
As previously discussed, the community character consists primarily of a variety of uses
including attached dwellings, outdoor recreation and entertainment, retail sales and service,
hotels and motels and restaurants within multi-story attached dwellings between two and 15
stories. The proposal is for a 230-unit hotel within a single 14-story building on a four-story
base. The bulks of the building will be contained with a curvilinear tower setback on the western
portion of the on top of the four-story base. The modern architectural style of the building
combined with lush landscaping will complement and enhance adjacent properties. Therefore,
the proposal is consistent with this CDC Section.

Section 3-914.A.6. The design of the proposed development minimizes adverse effects, including
visual, acoustic and olfactory and hours of operation impacts on adjacent properties.
The design of the proposed development minimizes adverse visual and acoustic impacts on
adjacent properties. There should be no olfactory impacts of any kind. The bulk of the building
will be situated along the west side of the site with structured parking located on the first three
floors of the building. The primary active use area of the proposal will be the pool and patio area
located primarily within the northwest quadrant of the site. A six-foot masonry wall is proposed
along the south side of the consistent with the previously approved site plan as desired by
residents of the attached dwellings adjacent to the south. Therefore, the proposal is consistent
with this CDC Section.
The proposal supports the specific Comprehensive Infill Redevelopment Project criteria of this
Code as follows:
Section 2-803.D. Comprehensive infill redevelopment projects.
1. The development or redevelopment is othenvise impractical without deviations from the use
and/or development standards set forth in this zoning district.
The site has largely sat vacant for approximately eight years. There have been four prior
proposals to redevelop the site as either a hotel or as a combination attached dwelling and
hotel. All of these proposals were approved by the City through the Level II Flexible
Development application review process. However, due to market conditions and other
variables the approvals have expired in due course. The current proposal is very much the
same as the most recently approved site (FLD2008-08024) with only minor changes in the
design of the building. There are no changes in the proposed intensity of the development as
compared to the most recent approved proposal. In order for the proposal to effectively
compete in the marketplace, the full complement of 230 hotel units must be used on site. In
fact, one of the strategies of Beach by Design is to "optimize project densities" on the Beach.
The number of units directly affects the form of the building vis-a-vis height, setbacks and
area of floorplate. In order to create a viable hotel the requested level of flexibility is needed.
Therefore, the current proposal which includes a single, 14-story building with 230 hotel
units with associated accessory uses is a reasonably expected design solution. The proposed
use is consistent with established uses on adjacent properties. Therefore, a reasonable
conclusion is that the redevelopment of the site is otherwise impractical without deviations
from the development standards as otherwise provided in the T District. Therefore, the
proposal is consistent with this CDC Section.
2. The development or redevelopment will be consistent with the goals and policies of the
Comprehensive Plan, as well as with the general purpose, intent and basic planning
objectives of this Code, and with the intent and purpose of this zoning district.
The redevelopment of the site will be consistent with a variety of Goals, Objectives and
Policies of the City's Comprehensive Plan as well as with the general purpose, intent and
basic planning objectives of the CDC as examined in detail previously in this document.
Therefore, the proposal is consistent with this CDC Section.
3. The development or redevelopment will not impede the normal and orderly development and
improvement of surrounding properties.

. . l��at�.;,._
As mentioned, all surrounding properties are developed with a variety of destination resort
uses including overnight accommodations, restaurants, recreation, retail and attached
dwellings between two- and 15-stories. The proposal includes 230 hotel units within a 14-
story building. The proposal should have no impact on the ability of adjacent properties to
redevelop or otherwise be improved. Therefore, the proposal is consistent with this CDC
Section.
4. Adjoining properties will not suffer substantial detriment as a result of the proposed
development.
As discussed in detail, the proposal is similar to and will support adjacent uses. The
proposed height is similar to the buildings adjacent to the south and comparable to other
buildings in the area. In addition, the placement of the building, accessory uses and parking
is similar to adjacent properties. Therefore, the proposal is consistent with this CDC Section.
5. The proposed use shall otherwise be permitted by the underlying future land use category, be
compatible with adjacent land uses, will not substantially alter the essential use
characteristics of the neighborhood; and shall demonstrate compliance with one or more of
six objectives:
a. The proposed use is permitted in this zoning district as a minimum standard, flexible
standard or flexible development use;
b. The proposed use would be a significant economic contributor to the city's economic
base by diversifying the local economy or by creating jobs;
As mentioned previously, the T district permits overnight accommodations as a minimum
development use and the proposed use would reestablish a hotel on a site that has been
effectively vacant since 2005. Therefore, the proposal is consistent with this CDC Section.
6. Flexibility with regard to use, lot width, required setbacks, height and off-street parking are
justified based on demonstrated compliance with all of the following design objectives:
a. The proposed development will not impede the normal and orderly development and
improvement of the surrounding properties for uses permitted in this zoning district.
As mentioned, surrounding properties are developed with a variety of uses typical of a tourist
destination including hotels, retail, restaurants, outdoor recreation and entertainment and
attached dwellings. The proposed hotel will support and complement surrounding uses with
regard to form and function. The proposal will have no effect on the ability of surrounding
properties to be redeveloped or otherwise improved. Therefore, the proposal is consistent
with this CDC Section.
b. The proposed development complies with applicable design guidelines adopted by the
city.
As discussed in detail in this document, the proposal is fully compliant with all applicable
portions of the Design Guidelines of Beach by Design. Therefore, this CDC Section is not
applicable to the proposal.
c. The design, scale and intensity of the proposed development supports the established or
emerging character of an area.

The proposal provides for a use similar in bulk to the attached dwellings immediately to the
south and in scale with other lower buildings in the area. This is accomplished through a
significant stepback of the hotel tower towards the west side of the site and the placement of
the four-story base closer to the east side of the site. The proposed hotel is a desired use on
the Beach and will support surrounding uses such as retail, restaurants and out-door
recreation and entertainment. Therefore, the proposal is consistent with this CDC Section.
d. In order to form a cohesive, visually interesting and attractive appearance, the proposed
development incorporates a substantial number of the following design elements:
■ Changes in horizontal building planes;
■ Use of architectural details such as columns, cornices, stringcourses, pilasters,
porticos, balconies, railings, awnings, etc.;
■ Ijariety in materials, colors and textures;
■ Distinctive fenestration patterns;
■ Building stepbacks; and
■ Distinctive roofs forms.
The architecture of the building provides for substantial articulation of the fenestration
through the use balconies, railings, windows and a significant building offset which
essentially places the bulk of the building on the western portion of the site. The tower's
shape, a thin, tiered curve, will act as a focal point of views from the adjacent beach to the
north visually linking the Beach Walk District and South Beach/Clearwater Pass Districts.
The single largest feature of the building is the tower. This portion of the building is
curvilinear in form resulting in a continuously curving fa�ade. The base of the building
incorporates a series of articulations of the fenestration with the single longest fa�ade
extending approximately 75 feet. Therefore, the proposal is consistent with this CDC
Section.
e. The proposed development provides for appropriate buffers, enhanced landscape design
and appropriate distances between buildings.
The proposal provides for a building, the form of which whether the four-story base along
South Gulfview Boulevard or the tower on the west site of the site supports and complements
surrounding development. The proposal includes a lush landscape that exceeds the intent of
the CDC. The proposed building will be approximately 100 feet away from the adjacent
building to the south. Property to the north has been developed as a City-owned surface
parking lot. Therefore, the proposal is consistent with this CDC Section.
Section 4-206.D.4: Burden of proof. The burden of proof is upon the applicant to show by
substantial competent evidence that he is entitled to the approval requested.
The applicant has adequately demonstrated through the submittal of substantial competent
evidence that the request is entitled to the approval requested as required by CDC Section 4-
206.D.4.
Code Enforcement Analysis:
There are no active Code Compliance cases for the subject property.

COMPREHENSIVE INFILL REDEVELOPMENT PROJECT
Salt Block 57, L.L.C.
430 South Gulfview Boulevard
Section B. Description of Request
Request
The subject property is the former Adam's Mark hotel site, located at 430 South
Gulfview Boulevard. The Applicant and property owner, Salt Block 57, L.L.C., proposes
to redevelop the property with 230 overnight accommodation units. The applicant is an
affiliate of Ocean Properties, Ltd., the owner and operator of numerous hotels and
resorts in North America and Canada (www.oplhotels.com).
Specifically, the Appticant requests:
1. Inclusion of the previous Termination of Status of Nonconformity for
density, 217 overnight accommodation units (as established by FLD2005-01005, and
restated in FLD2005-05047, FLD2007-11034, and FLD2008-08024) where 93 overnight
accommodation units (1.87 acres at 50 units/acre) are allowed by the current �oning
(Tourist) and land use designation (RFH), under the provisions of Section 6-109,
Clearwater Community Development Code ("Code");
2. Flexible Development approval to permit 230 overnight
accommodation units in the Tourist (T) District, with

building (raised pool);
h. 333 valet parking spaces, consisting of 278 spaces conforming
to Code specifications and 55 tandem spaces;
two southerly driveways having a spacing of 50 feet, where 125
feet is required by Section 3-102; and
approval of a two year development order;
as a Comprehensive Infill Redevelopment Project, under the provisions of
Section 2-803.0 of the Code; and
3. including the use of the Transfer of Development Rights of eight total
dwelling units (being converted to 13 avernight accommodation units) previously
approved and transferred under TDR2005-05022, including four dwelling units from
557 and 579 Cyprus Avenue, one dwelling unit from 625-627 Bay Esplanade and three
dwelling units from 667 Bay Esplanade, under the provisions of Section 4-1402.
HiStOry
The property is the site of the former Adam's Mark Hotel which was built in 1975 and
was a landmark at the southerly end of Clearwater Beach for almost 30 years. The
hotel closed its doors after sustaining damage from Hurricane Jeanne in September,
2004, and on April 19, 2005, the Community Development Board approved a
termination of nonconforming status as to density and granted flexible development
approval for height (155'), setbacks, reduced parking and other existing nonconformities
in order to allow the hotel to be renovated (FLD2005-01005). The hotel renovation
never occurred due to economic reasons and site was subsequently sold and was
approved for finro new redevelopment scenarios. The first was for 112 residential
condominium units and 78 condo hotel units (FLD2005-05047), followed by several
minor revisions and extensions; then, the January 15, 2008 approval for 230 overnight
accommodation units which were to be in the form of a vacation/interval ownership type
of use (FLD2007-11034); followed by the approval of 230 overnight accommodation
rooms after the purchase of the property by the Applicant (FLD2008-08024).
Anticipating the approved redevelopment, the previous owner demolished the Adam's
Mark on October 8, 2005. Changes in the real estate market and changes in ownership
have caused the Applicant, which purchased the property in December, 2007, to modify
the proposed use of the property to overnight accommodations in the format of
traditional hotel accommodations (rather than a hotel-condo or timeshare) and to
proceed with permitting a buildable hotel. The proposed project is substantially similar
to that which was approved in 2008.
Proposed Use
2
The Applicant proposes to redevelop the site with a 230-room hotel that will attract
tourists to Clearwater Beach. The property will include amenities, such as meeting
rooms, spa, pool, restaurant and bar, all accessory uses to the hotel use.
Parking for hotel guests and employees will be in a 3-story on-site parking garage,
containing 333 parking spaces, which will be 100 percent valet parked.
Section D. Written Submittal Requirements
General Applicability Criteria:
1) The proposed development of the land will be in harmony with the scale,
bulk, coverage, density and character of adjacent properties in which it is
located.
West: The property is bounded on the west by the Gulf of Mexico.
North: The adjacent property to the north is the public beach and City-owned
property, including a public parking lot, which was recently renovated with Beach
Walk improvements. The proposed development incorporates and extends the
Beach Walk improvements adjacent to the project, through extension of a 10'-
wide shell finish concrete sidewalk, use of decorative pavers and planting of
Medjool Date Palms along Gulfview Blvd.
East: The adjacent property to the east is an area of smaller mixed uses,
including hotel, condominium, retail and restaurants. It is anticipated that this
area will also be undergoing renovations, as are encouraged by Beach by
Design's vision of Beach Walk. The height of the four-story base of the building is
compatible with and reflects the scale of the buildings to the east across Gulfview
Boulevard as those buildings are generally 4 stories. The "tower" portion of the
proposed hotel is in a curved shape, oriented to the Gulf, such that it is stepped
back from S. Gulfview.
South: The adjacent property to south is occupied by 440 West condominiums,
which consists of two towers of 157' in height. The proposed design is
approximately one-half the mass of what previous approvals and the former
Adam's Mark and will allow the 440 property a less dense neighbor and broader
view than what could be constructed on site.
The scale, bulk, coverage and density of the proposed project are in keeping with
the Design Guidelines set forth in Beach by Design for projects including
approvals of transfers of density and increased building height. The building
mass is 36.17 percent of what is permitted by Beach by Design on the site.
Please see the more detailed discussion of these criteria in response to
Comprehensive Infill Criteria No. 6.b. in this exhibit.
3
2) The proposed development will not hinder or discourage the appropriate
development and use of adjacent land and buildings or significantly impair
the value thereof.
The proposed projecfi will enhance this area of the beach in a number of ways,
including:
(1) Superior architectural design and lush landscaping which will visually
enhance the neighborhood;
(2) Construction which meets current land development Codes and the goal
of Beach by Design to provide luxury resorts in the Beach Walk area
(3) Excess parking and adequate stacking space and loading area, in order to
eliminate any traffic congestion at the site and eliminate potential off-site
parking in public lots. The parking is designed to accommodate hotel
guests and staff, as well as provide adequate holding space for taxis and
airport shuttles awaiting fares;
(4) Beach Walk improvements incorporated into the site provide for a better
pedestrian flow along South Gulfview than what currently exists;
(5) Property value will significantly increase, as the current taxable value of
the vacant parcel is $16,414,800 and the estimated project valuation is
$50,000,000;
(6) A hotel operated by Ocean Properties, Ltd., a well-known and reputable
company, will attract tourists;
(7) The hotel guests are potential clientele of nearby restaurants and other
Clearwater Beach businesses; and
(8) Design locates guest activity portions of the hotel toward the public beach
to increase activity around the site.
3) The proposed development will not adversely affect the health or safety of
persons residing or working in the neighborhood of the proposed use.
The Applicant will connect to the recently constructed concrete sidewalk in front of
the hotel, creating a southerly extension of the Beach Walk, which will improve
the pedestrian flow and safety along the westerly side of South Gulfview. The
sidewalk will be interrupted by brick paver driveways as to call pedestrians'
attention to the crosswalks for safety purposes. Adequate driveway stacking
space at the hotel entrance and a separate driveway for delivery vehicle provide
that vehicles do not back up into S. Gulfview, thereby minimizing traffic
congestion and not blocking the sidewalk.
With regard to health, safety and welfare, the proposed development and
structure will comply as required with applicable codes including the Florida
Building Code, the Life Safety Code and the Florida Fire Prevention Code. Fire
Department Access shall comply with NFPA 1 Chapter 18 with Gulf View
Boulevard serving as the access road, and more specifically that the access road
will extend to within 50' of a single exterior door per 18.2.2.2, an approved route
around the exterior of the structure measures not more than 450' from the access
road and the building is equipped with sprinklers per 18.2.2.2.3.1 and 18.2.2.3.2.
4
4) The proposed development is designed to minimize traffic congestion.
The City previously determined that a traffic study should not be required based
on the prior approvals on this site for a similar project.
There are a number of ways in which the project has been designed to minimize
traffic congestian on South Gulfview Boulevard:
(1) The driveway under the porte cochere will have a one-way north to south
traffic flow. Vehicles will enter the two-lane driveway on the north side and
drive in front of the hotel. All vehicles are serviced by valet. From this
location under the porte cochere, the valet will drive directly into the
parking garage without exiting to S. Gulfview. When guests depart, the
valet will bring the vehicle out of the garage directly into north side of the
porte cochere without accessing S. Gulfview, after which the guests will
proceed in a southerly direction and exit the property onto S. Gulfview.
The porte cochere driveway provides stacking space for 14 vehicles, as
shown on the diagram attached hereto as Exhibit "C" — Page 5. Service
and delivery vehicles will use a separate service drive on the south side of
the property so as not to interfere with the valet operation in front of the
hotel.
(2) The parking garage will contain 334 parking spaces, including 58 spaces
in excess of the minimum Code requirement for overnight accommodation
use and the actual demand (as stated in the parking study included with
this application}, as the Applicant desires to insure that all parking
demands of the project can be accommodated on site. The parking
garage will be 100 percent valet parked and will be adequately staffed
such that all vehicles are efficiently parked without excess back-up.
(3) It is estimated the timing of emptying the entire parking garage through the
use of the garage elevators, such as in an evacuation situation, would be
consistent with the evacuation orders issued by emergency personnel.
5) The proposed development is consistent with the community character of
the immediate vicinity of the parcel proposed for development.
The property is located within and at the northern end of the "Clearwater Pass
District" of Clearwater Beach giving it a very visible location at the south end
"Beach Walk." The proposed hotel has a distinctive design that will make it an
attractive landmark at this location. The project is also consistent with the
community character of the "Clearwater Pass District" which Beach by Design
describes as an area of mixed uses including high rise condos and resort hotels.
As to the immediate vicinity, to the west is the Gulf of Mexico and the parcel to
the north is the public beach, public parking area and Beach Walk improvements.
5
The Applicant will extend the Beach Walk sidewalk southerly in front of the
property.
The parcel to the south is occupied by 440 West Condominiums, having a height
of 157'. This development was built in 1975 and co-existed for 30 years with the
155' high Adam's Mark hotel. The proposed project is the same use as the
previous use of the Adam's Mark Hotel and therefore, is consistent with the
historical development pattern in this area of the Beach. The proposed project is
of a superior architectural design to the prior Adam's Mark building and
incorporates Beach by Design guidelines; having a signature property as the
terminus to Beach Walk provides redevelopment to the entire vicinity and
surrounding properties.
To the east are mixed retail and overnight accommodation uses. This area is
also expected to be affected and improved by Beach Walk and this
redevelopment. Guests of the proposed project are prospective clientele of the
retail and restaurant uses to the east.
6) The design of the proposed development minimizes adverse effects,
including visual, acoustic and olfactory and hours of operation impacts on
adjacent properties.
The proposed redevelopment project will improve the visual appeal at this south
end of the public beach. The architectural style is a contemporary design which is
appropriate and aesthetically pleasing for this beachfront property.
As described in detail in General Applicability Criteria 4, the entrance driveways
and parking garage design will keep vehicles off of the Beach Walk area. This will
enhance and encourage the flow of pedestrians from the beach to the site or
other properties to the south.
The pool area will be located at the northwesterly area of the site, such that noise
or visual distraction will not be a factor to the adjoining residential condominiums
to the south and it will instead appear interactive with the public beach as guests
will overlook the beach from the pool deck.
Comprehensive Infill Redevelopment Project Criteria:
1. The development or redevelopment is otherwise impractical without
deviations from the use and/or development standards set forth in this
zoning district.
The city approved the termination of non-conforming status as to the density of
217 overnight accommodation units and the existing height of 155 ft. (FLD2005-
01005) in 2005. Since then, the owner has submitted additional applications with
different variations of the proposed redevelopment of the site.
The proposed deviations from Code, which are discussed in detail below, are
necessary and minimal deviations to Code without which the project cannot be
C
constructed at this location. The Applicant has designed the proposed
redevelopment project to comply with Beach by Design guidelines to the fullest
extent possible. The proposed redevelopment of this site into a hotel use is
highly visible from Beach Walk and is an integral part of the City's vision of
Clearwater Beach as set forth in Beach by Design as it provides overnight
accommodation units, a luxury resort in the Beach Walk district, and incorporates
the design guidelines. It is identified as a primary location for redevelopment and
has been underutilized as a temporary parking lot
Height
The request for 150' when 100' is allowed by Code is consistent with the Design
Guidelines of Beach by Design which provide for increased height in the event of
a transfer of development rights to the property. This application includes the
use of the 13 overnight accommodation units which were previously transferred
to the site pursuant TDR2005-05022. There is a reasonable relationship
between the height increase for the condominium and the 13 transferred units
based upon other cases recommended for approval by staff and actually
approved by CDB consistent with Beach by Design. There are 104 units located
above 100', many of which are the luxury suites, which are the larger, more
upscale units. There are three stories of parking which increase the height
where the rooms are located, consistent with the Adam's Mark Hotel previously
located on the site. Attached hereto on page A-0.05 and in color as exhibit "C" is
an exhibit which shows the consistency with Beach by Design.
Setbacks
As to South Gulfview, the 4-story base of the building is set back 30 feet and the
150' tower portion, taking into account a 6' balcony, is set back 26 feet from S.
Gulfview at its closest point. The deviation requested is for the overhang of the
porte cochere which extends to the right-of-way in order to cover the entrance,
valet parking and drop-off area.
The setback reductions along the northerly and westerly boundaries will not be
visually apparent due to the proximity of the public beach and waterfront location
of the property, making the property line invisible. To the extent that there are
projections on higher levels that reduce the setbacks, those projections are
permitted pursuant to Code section 3-908.
Relief from CCCL Setback
The property is unique in that the CCCL wraps around the site and affects both
the westerly and northerly boundaries. The Applicant has designed the site such
as to have the pool, pool deck and sun terrace oriented to the public beach at the
northwesterly corner of the site, which area is traversed by the CCCL on finro
sides. Locating the pool at this area makes an attractive step down to the beach
and keeps the pool area buffered from the neighbors at 440 West. No part of
any buildings are located seaward of the CCCL however the boardwalk and
7
sundeck to protrude seaward of the CCCL by approximately 15 ft. The Applicant
acknowledges that a permit from Florida Department of Environmental Protection
is required for these structures, and if this permit is not issued, the structures
shall not be built.
The northern setback is zero feet to the CCCL and zero feet to pavement. The
zero feet to structure is specifically on the western half of the property where the
pool is located. To incorporate this portion of the building to the public space, the
applicant has provided screening and landscaping. (See landscape plan
submitted with this application).
Driveway Spacinq
Code Section 3-1402.B limits parking garages to "one entrance and one exit...
per street". Code Section 3-102 calls for a minimum spacing of 125 ft befinreen
drives. The proposed plan meets the limitation of one garage entrance and one
garage exit per street. The spacing between the entrance and exit drives is 150
ft(> 125 ft minimum). The proposed plan, however, calls for a two-way service
drive in addition to the porte cochere entrance and exit drives. Code Section 3-
1402.6 provides for additional drives if "determined necessary by the traffic
engineer to alleviate congestion and improve traffic flow". The proposed design
alleviates congestion and improves traffic flow both on the site and on S.
Gulfview. The vehicles using the service drive would not need to wait in the
queue for valet parking, thus alleviating unnecessary congestion at the drop-off
drive. Additionally, the service drive offers a more direct route to the loading
area/trash pick-up area leading to improved traffic flow allowing these vehicles to
quickly exit S. Gulfview. The low volume anticipated for the service drive (10-20
trips per day), and the fact that the exit drive is one-way traffic, lessen the chance
for conflicts with the service drive located within 50 feet of the garage exit per
Code Section 3-102.
Two-Year Development Order
The Applicant requests a two-year development order due to market conditions
and the extensive amount of time necessary to complete detailed construction
drawings for the hotel.
2. The development or redevelopment will be consistent with the goals and
policies of the Comprehensive Plan, as well as with the general purpose,
intent and basic planning objectives of this Code, and with the intent and
purpose of this zoning district.
Overnight accommodations are allowed in the "Tourist" zoning district. Primary
uses in the "Resort Facilities High" land use category are "high density
residential/overnight accommodation." The site is located in the Clearwater Pass
District of Beach by Design which is characterized as "mixed use — high rise
condominiums, resort hotels, recreation and tourist and neighborhood serving
0
3.
4.
E
uses." The Comprehensive Plan specifically incorporates Beach by Design and
as stated previously, this application is consistent with and advances the
objectives of Beach by Design.
The development or redevelopment will not impede the normal and orderly
development and improvement of surrounding properties.
The proposed project is compatible with the neighborhood, as is more particularly
discussed in General Applicability Criteria 1 and Comprehensive Infill Criteria 4
below, and will not impede other development. The Applicant will be the
developer and operator of the proposed hotel so unlike other projects that were
approved and then stalled prior to development while the owner sought an
operator or developer, that is not the case.
Adjoining properties will not suffer substantial detriment as a result of the
proposed development.
West: The property is bounded on the west by the Gulf of Mexico.
North: The adjacent property to the north is the public beach and City-owned
property renovated with Beach Walk improvements including public parking. The
proposed landscaping and extension of sidewalk to the front of the proposed
development incorporates and extends the Beach Walk improvements into the
hotel project.
East: The adjacent property to the east is an area of smaller mixed uses,
including retail and restaurants. It is anticipated that this area will also undergo
renovations, as are encouraged by Beach by Design's vision of Beach Walk. The
inclusion of a luxury resort will bring new tourists to the community that will
frequent the existing businesses.
South: The adjacent property to south is occupied by 440 West condominiums,
which are 157' in height and of similar scale to the former Adam's Mark. 440
West condominiums co-existed with the Adam's Mark hotel for its entire existence
of 30 years. The extension of Beach Walk in front of the property will give 440
West residents easy pedestrian access to the north and the public beach access.
Elimination of traffic congestion as previously described will improve traffic flow
along South Gulfview for 440 West residents. The Applicant has included a
screen wall and landscaping buffer along the southerly property line in response
to the requests of the 440 West residents.
5. The proposed use shall otherwise k
land use category, be compatible
substantially alter the essential use
and shall demonstrate compliance
objectives:
e permitted by
with adjacent
characteristics
the underlying future
land uses, will not
of the neighborhood;
w�th one or more of the following
a. The proposed use is perrr�itted in this zoning district as a minimum
standard, flexible standard or flexible development use;
b. The proposed use would be a significant economic contributor to the
City's economic base by diversifying the local economy or by creating
jobs;
c. The development proposal accommodates the expansion or
redevelopment of an existing economic contributor;
d. The proposed use provides for the provision of affordable housing;
e. The proposed use provides for development or redevelopment in an
area that is characterized by other similar development and where a
land use plan amendment and rezoning would result in a spot land use
or zoning designation; or
f. The proposed use provides for the development of a new, and/or
preservation of a working waterfront use.
The proposed use meets several of these criteria. Overnight accommodations are
permitted by the "Resort Facilities High" land use category and in the "Tourist"
zoning district. Redevelopment of Clearwater Beach is a significant economic
contributor to the City. Since 2004, the property has not contributed to the economy
as it was closed to guests while the chain of owners worked with the City to permit a
feasible project. This proposed use is an economic contributor by increasing the
number of tourists to Clearwater Beach and encouraging patronization of local
businesses. The proposed project will generate new jobs in the City of Clearwater
which will include service and management jobs. The proposed use as overnight
accommodations is characteristic of the neighborhood, as the Adam's Mark Hotel
located at this site was a focal point of the southerly end of Clearwater Beach for
many years. As previously discussed in General Applicability Criteria 1 and
Comprehensive Infill Criteria 4 the proposed project is compatible with the
surrounding uses.
6. Flexibility with regard to use, lot width, required setbacks, height and off-
street parking are justified based on demonstrated compliance with all of
the following design objectives:
a. The proposed development will not impede the normal and orderly
development and improvement of the surrounding properties for uses
permitted in this zoning disfirict.
The proposed use is <
approval. Surrounding
north is not impacted.
10
use permitted in the Tourist zoning district without this
properties are already developed. Public property to the
b. The proposed development complies with applicable design
guidelines adopted by the City.
The proposed hotel is designed to meet the requirements of Beach by Design in scale,
bulk, coverage, density and character. The 155' tall section of the project is oriented to
the westerly side of the site and curved, such that it is not entirely visible from one
building plane. The tower sits on a five-story base to provide a stepped massing in
accordance with the massing requirements of Beach by Design (see massing exhibit
included as part of Exhibit C). The project layout preserves some view corridors of the
neighbors to the South and places the pool/recreational area at the northwesterly corner
of project site to reduce noise transmission and visual distraction to the adjacent
residential condominiums. The location of the units on the site provides all units in the
project with water views and provides easy access for all guests to the public beach and
nearby businesses. This project furthers the City's beach revitalization objective by
providing tourist accommodations. The project's architecture and landscaping
compliments the tropical vernacular envisioned in Beach by Design.
Beach bv Desiqn VII A. Density. The proposed hotel is consistent with the vested rights
of density plus transferred development rights. All units, including the TDRs are
overnight accommodation units.
Beach by Desiqn VII, B
Height and Tower Separation
The project consists of a five-story base structure (58-6" in height) under one tower
which is 150' high measured from FEMA to the top of the main roof deck. Per Beach by
Design VII B:
"...the height may be increased, however to one hundred fifty feet (150') if':
• Additional density is allocated to the development by transferred development
rights as discussed previously (See Item 1 page 6).
• B.2 (a) Tower separation: No "portions of the building structures which
exceed one hundred feet (100) (in height) are spaced at least 100' apart." The
nearest structure to the southeast (440 S. Gulfview Boulevard) is separated from
the 100' plus portion of the proposed building by approximately 107'-6". See
Exhibit C, page 1.
•"500' rule": The Applicant chooses this Option 1 of B2 as "...no more than two
(2) structures which exceed one hundred feet (100 j are within five hundred
(500')..."for this project. See Exhibit C,_page 2.
The floor plate of any portion of a building that exceeds forty-�ve feet in height is
limited as follows:
a) befween 45' and 100; the floor plate will be no greater than 25,000 square
feet except for parking structures open to the public; and
11
b) between 100' and 150; the floor plate will be no greater than 10,000 square
feet; and
c) deviations to the above floor plate requirements may be approved provided
the mass and scale of the design creates a tiered effect and complies with the
maximum building envelope allowance above 45' as described in Section
C.1.4.
The floor plate between 45' and 100' is 13,879 square feet; and the floor plate
between 100' and 150' is 12,837 square feet. The Applicant requests minimal
relief from the 10,000 sq. ft. requirement above 100' as is allowed per Beach by
Design. The stepback of the crescent-shaped tower and the thin nature of the
tower reduces the overall mass and scale of the building and complies with the
maximum building envelope of 60 percent as only 22.6 percent is actually
occupied by the tower. See also responses to follow.
Beach bY Design VI I C
Desiqn, Scale and Mass of Buildinqs
The concept of the building design is generated by the site and the opportunity to
maximize waterfront views to all the guestrooms. The building's shape is a thin poetic
tiered curve that acts as a focal point to the views from the adjacent beach and
waterway. The curve acts as a"hinge" element that links the Beach Walk district from
the South Beach/Clearwater Pass district. The materials and color of the building will
support the streamline language of the architecture and its natural surroundings.
Lush landscaping is included at the entire project perimeter to soften the architecture,
and to provide shade at pedestrian walkways and to enhance the beachfront character
at all sides of the project. By placing all automobile parking internal to the project,
automobiles are not seen and the Beach by Design goal of a pedestrian oriented beach
community is realized.
The quantifiable aspects of the architectural vocabulary are as follows per Beach by
Design:
• Buildings with a footprint of greater than 5, 000 square feet. .. will be constructed so
that no more than two of the three building dimensions in the vertical or horizontal
planes are equal in lengfh.
The building footprint is approximately 57,480 square feet. The building dimensions
vary considerably so that no more two of the three building dimensions in the vertical
or horizontal planes are equal in length. The project's overall horizontal plane
dimensions are approximately: 212' wide along Gulf View Blvd, 300' deep along the
north side, and 160' high from grade to the flat roof deck of the tower; none of these
dimensions are "equal" (or vary by /ess than 40% of the shorter two lengths). In
12
addition to these overall dimensions, the building's modulated massing provides
considerable dimensional variation.
• No plane (or elevation) of the project "...continue(s) uninterrupted for greater than
one hundred (100').
The tower portion of the building is crescent shaped creating a continuously curving
facade and therefore, no plane is continuous for more than 30 feet.
• At least sixty percent (60%) of any elevation will be covered with windows or
architectural decoration.
All of the elevations are provided with large windows or architectural decoration
including: decorative grilles, stucco reveals, concrete eyebrows. The percentages of
decoration on each of the exterior elevations are as follows, all exceeding the
minimum requirement of 60%:
• North elevation - 68%
• East elevation - 61 %
• South elevation - 62%
• West elevation - 70%
These percentages are noted on the architectural plans.
• No more than sixty percent (60%) of the theoretical maximum building envelope
located above 45' will be occupied by a building.
The overall building mass from 45' to 155' (above FEMA) calculates to 21.7% of the
theoretical maximum allowed building envelope. This is significantly less than the
60% maximum allowed building envelope.
• The height and mass of buildings will be correlated to: (1) the dimensional aspects of
the parcel proposed for development and (2) adjacent public spaces such as streets
and parks.
The height and mass of the building are correlated to the parcel and adjacent public
spaces as described above.
• The guideline for mixed use is not applicable.

The proposed design, while requesting setback relief for the porte cochere supports,
otherwise meets the goals to provide a pedestrian path. The applicant proposes to
purchase the city's metered lots adjacent to the site to provide a landscaped sidewalk
area for people to traverse south from Beach Walk to the new improvements created
south of the property. The side and rear setbacks are consistent and provide fire
access.

c. The design, scale and intensity of the proposed development supports
the established or emerging character of an area;
The proposed project is of a scale consistent with that of the Adam's Mark,
which was an established landmark at this location for 30 years. The
architectural style and compliance with design guidelines will support the
emerging character of the area as envisioned by Beach by Design. The
project's "contemporary coastal architecture" compliments the tropical
vernacular envisioned in Beach by Design.
d. In order to form a cohesive, visually interesting and attractive
appearance, the proposed development incorporates a substantial
number of the following design elements:
• Changes in horizontal building planes;
• Use of architectural details such as columns, cornices,
stringcourses, pilasters, porticos, balconies, railings, awnings,
etc;
• Variety in materials, colors and textures;
• Distinctive fenestration patterns;
• Building stepbacks; and
• Distinctive roofs forms.
Many of these elements have been incorporated into the design as
discussed in detail in response to Criteria 6.b. above.
e. The proposed development provides for appropriate buffers, enhanced
landscape design and appropriate distances between buildings.
Landscapinq
Overall Landscaping:
The landscape plan is in accordance with design guidelines set forth in Beach by
Design and also Division 12 of the Landscape Development Standards. A
Comprehensive Landscape Program is not required as the proposed landscape
plan meets or exceeds Code requirements. All sight triangles have been
indicated and will only contain low shrubs or groundcover
Gulfview Boulevard:
Compliance with the Beach by Design criteria has been
plan to include specialty paving and street furniture as
Medjool Date Palms will be planted approximately 35' on
10' sidewalk.
North Property Line:

noted on the planting
requested. Preferred
center adjacent to the
The north property line is adjacent to the existing beach and also the public
parking lot. All plantings consist of native species. A row of Sea Grape, clusters
of Cabbage Palms, Silver Buttonwood and Sea Oats are proposed along this
property line to soften the northern edge of the project and provide a natural
experience.
Seawall:
A lower level sun terrace is proposed behind the seawall and will incorporate
above-ground, decorative landscaping.
South Property Line:
A row of 14' Cabbage Palms on 12' centers combined with a hedge of native Sea
Grapes, planted 4' on center, will provide screening of the service area along the
south property line. Some additional clustered Cabbage Palms combined with
Silver Buttonwood and Sea Oats have also been added where space allows
along the western end of the south property line to soften that portion of the
proposed building.

Planning Review: General Site Plan and Application Comments
1. The application (page 2 of 8) provides that the site is within
the T district and the RFH FLUP category when the site is
within the T and OS/R districts and RFH and R/OS categories
(1.87 and 0.58 acres, respectively). Please revise the
application. Break this out in the site data table in the site plan
set on Sheet A0.01 as well.
See revised application and revised site data table.
7
2. The index sheet of the site plan set does not include Sheet
A-0.05 in the list of contents although the sheet is included.
Review the cover sheet accordingly.
See revised index sheet.
3. Page 3 of 8 of the application provides that the existing
height is 145.5 feet. The site does not have a building on it so
the existing height is technically not applicable.
The site is subject to the vested rights which were granted pursuant
the termination of nonconforming sta.tus granted by FLD2005-
05047. See revised site data table which shows the vested rights,
the existing conditions, and the proposed conditions.
4. The site data table on Sheet A0.01 provides that the density
is 220 units plas 13 TDR units for a total of 230 units. That
should be 217 units plus 13 TDR units for a total of 230 units.
See revised site data table.
5. Clarify what the series of boxes are along the front of the
site along the front east side of the site - some of them extend
off the site into the public right-of-way. The portions which
extend into the right-of-way need to be removed.
These have been removed from the plans. Rather, this area is
highlighted to show where the Applicant intends to locate public
art.
6. Clarify the portion of the request (Exhibit B) which states
that the front setback is to be reduced to zero feet to porte
cochere. It appears that the porte cochere is at 15 feet which
meets code, the driveway is at 10 feet which also meets code
and whatever those boxes are at zero feet. Provide a dimension
from the front (east) property line to the porte cochere.
The plans have been revised to reflect that the porte-cochere has
four columns located along the east properiy line with zero
setback. See Sheet A-1.5.
7. Clarify what the object is at the northeast corner of the
building - it extends slightly past the CCCL (which runs along
the north and west sides of the site).
8
The objects are balcony projections which are 20'-0" above the
CCCL. See Sheet A-0.01 for clarification between building
envelope and balcony line.
8. The existing use is technically a non-residential off-street
parking facility not a demolished hotel.
The site is subject to the vested rights which were granted pursuant
the termination of nonconforming status granted by FLD2005-
05047. See revised site data table and application which shows the
vested rights, the existing conditions, and the proposed conditions.
9. Clarify how there is 42,601 square feet of existing floor area
when there is no building on the site (page 2 of 8 of the
application).
The site is subject to the vested rights which were granted pursuant
the termination of nonconforming status granted by FLD2005-
05047. See revised site data table and application which shows the
vested rights, the existing conditions, and the proposed conditions.
10. Clarify if the amount of ISR is based on the portion of the
site within the T district or the entire site (page 3 of 8 of the
application). Keep in mind that only the portion of the site
within the T really provides any intensity of use including ISR.
The Site data table and application have been updated
appropriately.
11. Clarify how the existing vehicular use area is only 12
percent of the site when it appears that the entire site (within
the T district) or nearly so is a parking lot (page 2 of 8 of the
application).
The site is subject to the vested rights which were granted pursuant
the termination of nonconforming status granted by FLD2005-
05047. See revised site data table and application which shows the
vested rights, the existing conditions, and the proposed conditions.
12. Clarify if the proposed vehicular use area is shown on the
application as a percentage of the entire site or just the portion
of the site within the T district.
The vehicular use axea is calculated based upon the entire site.
0
13. Clarify where employees are anticipated to park.
Employee parking shall be located on Parking Level P3.
14. Provide elevations along all sides of the site. It was a bit
surprising that front (east) elevations were not provided.
See elevations included on Sheet A10 — A17.
15. Clarify the height of the building. The application states
that the proposed height is 155 feet (Exhibit B) however, there
is an additional 19 feet of some sort of building feature shown.
Clarify what this portion of the building is. Bear in mind that
the maximum height as measured from BFE to the top of the
roof deck or midpoint of the peak of the roof, as the case may
be, is limited to 150 feet per Beach by Design Section VII.B
Design Guidelines. Height. In addition, please remember that
an additional 16 feet may be provided for mechanical
equipment and four feet for a parapet wall. Page 11 of the
narrative is the only spot where a height of 150 feet is
mentioned - elsewhere it is stated to be 155 feet. Please correct.
The plans have been revised to reflect the height of the building to
be 150 feet from the BFE which is taken from VE 16' NGVD
flood zone.
16.On page 11 of the narrative, as well as elsewhere,
references to Exhibit C are made but this exhibit does not seem
to be included in the application. This needs to be provided.
Exhibit C has been incorporated into the Architectural Plans in the
Sheet series A-0.05 thru A-0.09.
17. Clarify the location of the porte cochere canopy. Several
times in the application and narrative, it is mentioned that the
canopy extends to the east (front) property line but the site
plans show the canopy extending to the required setback line.
It does not appear that the canopy will encroach into the
required setback.
The plans have been revised to reflect that the porte-cochere has
four columns located along the east properly line with zero
setback. See Sheet A-1.5.
18. Provide typical dimensions for the parking spaces on
Sheets A-1 and 1.5.
10
Acknowledged. See revised plans Sheets A-1 and 1.5.
19. Clarify and dimension the one required loading space.
See revised plans Sheet A-1.
20. Clarify the number of proposed parking spaces. Sheet A-1
shows a total of 168 spaces where I count 165 spaces, Sheet A-
1.5 provides 142 spaces and Sheet A-2 provides 24 spaces
which totals 334 spaces where the application (page 3 of 8)
provides that there are 370 spaces. I count a total of 331 spaces.
See revised plans Sheet A-1, A-1.5, A-2.
21. Staff has determined that re-requesting the Termination of
Status of Nonconformity and the TDR are not required
therefore references to these requests and their accompanying
criteria can be removed from the narrative.
Acknowledged. See revised narrative and application.
22. Clarify if signage is proposed at this time. Please keep in
mind that signage will have to meet the requirements of Code.
There is no signage proposed at this time. The applicant will
separately submit a sign application, as appropriate.
23. Provide required sight visibility triangles on the site plan.
Triangles are shown on the landscape plan at the driveway
entrances but not on the engineering site plans. They also need
to be shown on the west side of the site at the seawall. It
appears that structures encroach into the required sight
visibility triangles at the northwest and southwest corners of
the site as well as on the south side of the northernmost
driveway. Clarify what the objects are within the sight
visibility triangles and their height.
See revised plans Sheet C3.
24. In the T zoning district, brick or other masonry walls or
walls with masonry columns linked by substantial grillwork
shall be permitted to a maximum height of six feet in a
required front setback. Clarify the location, heights and
materials of all proposed fences/walls. There was a comment in
11
a previous staff report which stated that in response to 440
West condominium resident requests in order to mitigate
negative views and noise from the loading area, the applicant is
proposing a siz-foot high wall along a portion of the south
property line. Clarify if that is still the case.
See sheet A-1 which ca11s out for a 6'-0" high masonzy wall
located along the south side property line.
25. Clarify where mechanical equipment will be located and
how it will be screened.
See revised plans.
26. Provide a breakdown of floor area with regard to accessory
uses such as restaurant, bar, meeting space, ballroom, etc. Bear
in mind that the area that may be occupied by such accessory
uses is limited to 15 percent of the gross floor area of the
building (less parking garages, stairwells and elevator shafts).
This amount may be increase to 20 percent; however, the
parking required for any portion of accessory use over 15
percent will need to be provided on-site.
See Sheet A-0.01 for breakdown of floor area with regards to
accessory which shows that it is less than 15% of hotel gross area.
27. The architectural plan set appears to skip levels 0300, 0400
and 0600 through 0800, 1000 and 1100 and 1300 and 1400
(although it is assumed that, bending to superstition, there is
no floor labeled 1300). Please clarify and amend as needed.
Please also provide the room count per floor.
Additional sheets have been added to clarify missing floors.
28. Sheet A-9 provides Section A although this section is not
labeled on any of the site plans. Please revise accordingly.
Section marks have been placed on a11 floor plan sheets.
29. Sheet A-10 provides a Pool Deck Section although this
section is not labeled on any of the site plans. Please revise
accordingly.
See revised plans. Section marks have been placed on all floor plan
sheets.
12
30. Clarify that Parking Level 0000 on Sheet A-1 is below
grade.
Parking Level P1 sha11 be at grade with an elevation of 3'-6" ngvd.
31. Clarify how the lower Sundeck (Sheet A-1.5) and the area
labeled as Sand Bar Below (Sheet A-2) work. It appears that
they occupy the same space.
Plans have been coordinated to clarify this space to be Lower
Sundeck. See Sheets A-1.5 and A-2.
32. Please provide a narrative regarding the architectural style
of the building and details such as color, architectural details,
materials, etc.
See revised Exhibit B.
33. It appears as though the street trees (sabal palms) are to
remain with the proposal. Please confirm this.
There are sabal palms included in the landscape plan.
34. Clarify if the balconies extend out farther than the
footprint of the building or if the shown footprint (as provided
on various sheets) encompasses the balconies. If the balconies
extend farther than the footprint and are not portrayed in the
application, please provide an additional sheet that shows all
building projections.
The balconies project 6'-0" form the building footprint and have
been clarified on sheets A-0.01.
35. Clarify what the Beach Transition feature is. If this is a
physical structure, please keep in mind that is extending well
off the property onto City property and will not be permitted.
The beach transition is a way to incorporate the hotel into the
public beach and provide amenities to both guests of the hotel and
the general public. It is proposed to provide a sand ramp that will
allow beach goers to seamlessly enter the property rather than have
to use stairs which will separate the property from the public areas.
36. Clarify how the Sundeck and pool decks work - it is
assumed that they are cantilevered out over the water.
13
Sundeck and pool deck to be cantilevered. More structural
information to be provided at the time of permitting.
37. Clarify that all utilities serving the site will be located
underground. It appears that there are no existing overhead
utilities.
Utilities serving the site will be underground as noted on Sheet C$.
38. Clarify how solid waste and recycling will be handled.
A Trash chute system shall be provided within the building's
service core. This will have a collector bin system on the Parking
level one. See Trash Chute Room 002 on Sheet A-1.
39. Clarify how Policy A.1.2.1 of the Future Land Use Element
of the Comprehensive Plan will be addressed.
The operator of the hotel will implement a hurricane evacuation
plan consistent with the intent to evacuate transient users pzior to
mandatory evacuations.
40. There was a condition of approval of a prior application
which inclnded that evidence of a filing of a Unity of Title be
provided to the City. Clarify the status of this.
It is unclear why a Unity of Title would be required or the intent of
this prior condition. The site is one site — not subject to that Code
section.
41. With regard to the 40-foot encroachment past the CCCL
for the concrete decking, it is noted that the most recent site
plan approval maintained development landward of the CCCL
with the exception of what appears to be some landscape
planters. The requested encroachment is not supported by
Staff because there have been no recent permitted
encroachments outside of narrow access boardwalks is
association with single-family homes for the purposes of
environmentally sensitively traversing existing sand dunes.
The plans have been revised to minimize the encroachment;
however, the CCCL by statute is not in a"no-build" line, but rather
provides specific construction requirements. The Applicant
proposes a Sundeck azea which is a necessary component of a
lu�ury resort.
14
Planning Review: General Applicability Criteria Comrnents
42. Criterion 1- Clarify the floor at which the building steps
back. The narrative (page 3) states that the building has a five-
story base bat it appears that it is really a four-story base as
the building steps back at the fifth floor. A reference is made
regarding a currently approved project. There are no
currently approved projects associated with the site - they are
all expired. A more accurate phrase would be previously
approved. Please clarify.
See revised application.
43. Criterion 2- On page four of the narrative it is mentioned
that one enhancement is constrnction which meets current
building Codes. Clarify how that is a particular enhancement
since all new construction mast meet current building codes.
That may be the equivalent to stating that the project will
include enhanced landscaping as all plants will be installed
green side up. Now, if the building will exceed building code or
be LEED certiited that would be something to mention.
Acknowledged.
44. Criterion 3- No comments.
45. Criterion 4- No comments.
46. Criterion 5- Perhaps mention that the proposal meets the
requirements of the Design Guidelines providing specific
examples. Clarify how, exactly, the proposal will enhance the
440 West development.

Planning Review: Comprehensive Infill Redevelopment Criteria Comments
48. Criterion 1- It is mentioned in the response to the criterion
that the redevelopment of this site as a hotel is an integral part
of the City's vision as set forth in Beach by Design. Clarify
where exactly this is provided for in Beach by Design. On page
7 of the narrative it is mentioned that setback reductions are
requested with regard to the CCCL but no mention is made of
the distances of the requested encroachments past the CCCL.
Please include such distances in your narrative.
15
See revised Exhibit B.
49. Criterion 2- Please provide any evidence that the proposal
is consistent with applicable Goals, Objectives and Policies
from the Comprehensive Plan.
See revised Exhibit B.
50. Criterion 3- Clarify how mentioning that the applicant will
be the developer and operator of the development addresses
this criterion.

the proposal will have on surrounding uses such as retail and
restaurant as opposed to the effect that the current conditions
may have.
See revised Exhibit B.

district. Please revise your response accordingly. Clarify how
many new jobs are expected to be created by the proposal.

Planning Review: Beach by Design Design Guidelines
54. Provide a section-by-section narrative addressing each part
of the Design Guidelines Section A through L. If a particular

proposed with the development.
See revised Exhibit B.
55. Provide a clear graphic depiction that indicates that the
proposal complies with Section B of the Design Guidelines with
�
regard to the 100 foot minimum separation between any
portions of building which exceed 100 feet in height and either
Option 1 or 2. The graphic provided does show a 100 foot
radius but it is not clear as to the height of the building at that
100 foot distance (it is assumed to be 99 feet) and it is not clear
at what point the height of the building exceeds 100 feet.

430 S. GULFVIEW BOULEVARD
PARKING STUDY
(UPDATE)
Submitted To•
City of Clearwater
Prepared For:
Salt Block 57, LLC
1001 E. Atlantic Ave., Suite 202
Delray Beach, FL 33483
Date: May 9, 2013
CLEARWATER BEACH HOTEL
lA INTRODUCTION
The 430 S. Gulfview Boulevard project is an update of a proposed 230 room hotel originally
submitted to the City in 2008. The current project incorporates many of the features and
characteristics originally proposed. The methodology for the parking analysis is consistent with
the previously submitted report. The primary differences between the previous submittal and the
current plan are limited to items which do not affect the parking requirements of the facility. The
differences include: the number of garage parking levels, modifications of the proposed ballroom
size and the elimination of a ballroom. Although there is a minor reduction in the total number of
parking spaces proposed, the following analysis demonstrates the parking is adequate for the
facility
The site is located between Gulf Boulevard and the Gulf of Mexico, north of Hamden Drive.
Access to the site will come from three driveways connecting to S. Gulfview Boulevard as
shown on Figure A1. This report which is based on a 2008 parking study prepared for submittal
to the City has been updated to review the proposed on-site parking operation and provide the
parking demand and expected operation of the parking plan.
2.0 PROPOSED PARKING CHARACTERISTICS
All parking for hotel guests and employees will be within the hotel garage and provided by valet
service. Vehicles arriving at the hotel will unload passengers and drivers at the hotel arrival court
located off of S. Gulfview Boulevard. A valet will drive the vehicles to the parking garage
without reentering S. Gulfview Boulevard. Parking will be provided on three parking levels.
Access between floors will be provided by two freight elevators.
Deliveries to the hotel will take place through a service drive from S. Gulfview Boulevard
located near the south side of the property. See Figure Al for the proposed driveway connections
to S. Gulfview Drive and the location of the service dock and drive.
3.0 FREIGHT ELEVATORS
Freight elevators will be used to transport ve�icles between floors in the hotel. Under normal
working conditions, a series of two elevators are proposed. Each elevator has the capacity to
transport one vehicle at a time. An emergency generator is proposed for the project which would
be capable of providing power to one elevator at a time in the event of a power outage.
4.0 PAR�NG DE1v�lvn
The hotel will have 230 guest rooms and include a restaurant, bar, spa and fitness center, nine
meeting rooms, and 8,188 square foot ballroom. To provide the expected demand for parking at
the hotel, two conditions resulting in a significant demand for parking are reviewed. The
conditions include:
• 100% hotel occupancy and a peak overlap in employee shifts.
• 100% hotel occupancy and a large banquet with 450 people attending.
The hotel will be staffed 24 hours per day using three shifts. The shifts will run from 7:00 am to
3:00 pm, 3:00 pm to 11:00 pm and 11:00 pm to 7:00 am. Shift l, the day shift, will have 75 staff
members on duty, Shift 2 will have 25 staff, and Shift 3 will have ten people. A large banquet
will require an additional 25 persons to handle the expected guests. It is projected, based on the
origina12008 report the parking requirement will be one parking space for every four employees
(25% of the staffl. Additional staff are expected to arrive at the hotel using public transit, to be
dropped off by others or to share a ride with an employee parking at the hotel. Tables 1 and 2
identify the various staff shifts, number of staff and parking requirements for each shift or staff
required to handle a large banquet.
100% room occupancy is assumed for the analysis. The anticipated parking requirements are
based on 60% of the occupied rooms requiring a parking space. Other means of arrivals to the
hotel for guests include: airport shuttle, taxi, and charter bus. Some of the people arriving in a
private vehicle may require more than one hotel room (families with children or business people
coming to a convention). Based on the 230 rooms, the parking demand would be 138 vehicles.
A conference with 450 attendees is included as part of the parking analysis. Of the conference
attendees half are expected to stay at the hotel. Half would arrive at the banquet in personal
vehicles with an auto occupancy of two people per car. As indicated in Table 1, a banquet with
450 attendees would require 113 parking spaces.
The number of parking spaces required for the two operating conditions outlined above has been
analyzed considering time of day for the various parking demands. Table 2 summarizes the
demand for parking on an hourly basis throughout the day, assuming 100% occupancy in the
hotel and no special event. As is indicated in Table 2, the highest demand comes in the period
from 2:00 pm to 4:00 pm with 163 parking spaces required.
100% hotel room occupancy combined with a large banquet commands the largest number of
parking spaces. The required parking for hotel guests, banquet attendees and staff are indicated
by hour throughout the day in Table 3. As indicated in the Table, the greatest parking demand
occurs from 6:00 pm to 10:00 pm as the banquet is in full attendance. The required parking for
the condition is 263 parking spaces.
5.0 PARHING PROVIDED
The hotel will provide parking in a three level garage on-site. The hotel will have 100% valet
service, eliminating the need for handicapped spaces although one handicapped space is
provided on the first parking level. There will be 279 marked spaces in the parking garage.
Figures A1, A1.5 and A2.0 indicate the parking to be provided on the various levels. Some of the
marked spaces will be two vehicles deep. Since all parking is provided by valet operation, access
problems are not anticipated.
If there is a greater demand for parking than is normally expected, additional cars could be
stacked in the aisles of the garage. This potential overflow parking has been marked in red on
Sheets A1, A1.5 and A2.0. The locations indicated assume an 8' wide by 20' long parking spot.
This was done to allow maneuvering room for parking or retrieving a car. The number of valet
spaces and marked spaces are summarized in Table 4, below. As indicated there will be 279
marked spaces, 8 handicapped and 46 valet spaces for a total of 333 parking spaces in the hotel
garage.

The number of parking spaces required has been compared to the number of spaces to be
provided in the parking garage. At full occupancy, 163 parking spaces are necessary. At full
occupancy with a large banquet, 263 parking spaces are indicated.
As noted in Section 5 above, there will be 333 spaces available for parking within the garage.
Since marked spaces exceed the parking demand, the proposed project will provide adequate
parking for its needs.
7.0 CONCLUSION
As demonstrated in this report, the hotel will have adequate capacity in its parking garage to
handle most expected events and full occupancy of all its hotel rooms. The maximum need
identified was for 263 parking spaces. The parking garage will have 333 spaces available, which
exceeds the identified parking demand. Therefore, adequate parking provisions have been made
available for the hotel.
