ANALYSIS:
Site Location and Existing Conditions:
The 18.435 acres is located at the northwest
corner of the intersection of S. Belcher Road
and Druid Road. The subject property was
previously developed with 193 mobile homes,
which was part of a larger mobile home park
development with a total of 295 mobile homes
(all mobile homes and common facilities have
been removed or demolished). The subject
property has 617.98 feet of frontage along
Belcher Road and 1,301.10 feet of frontage
along Druid Road.
The property is currently under construction of
240 attached dwellings with associated
amenities including clubhouse, pool, covered
picnic area and open playground as well as
landscaping pursuant to Flexible Development
application FLD2009-12045 approval.
Property to the north is presently zoned
Commercial (C) District and a portion of the
property is developed with a Neighborhood
Walmart pursuant to Flexible Development
application FLD2009-12046. Also approved in
the application are retail sales and services as
well as bank (office) uses. Properties to the east
across S. Belcher Road are zoned Commercial
(C) District and Office (0) District and are
developed with a bank, funeral home and
offices. Properties to the south across Druid
Road are zoned Low Medium Density
Residential (LMDR) District and are developed
with detached dwellings. Properties to the west
of the subject property are zoned Low Medium
Density Residential (LMDR) District and are
developed with detached dwellings.
The property is within the Medium Density
Residential (MDR) District; the intent and
purpose of which is to protect and preserve the
integrity and value of existing, stable
residential neighborhoods of inedium density
while at the same time, allowing a careful and
deliberate redevelopment and revitalization or
neighborhoods with unique amenities which

create unique opportunities to increase property values and the overall attractiveness of the City.
The attached dwelling use is allowed in the MDR District but the proposed accessory structures
(detached garages) between the principal structures (apartment buildings) and right-of-way
(Druid Road) are allowed subject to a Level I or Level II approval pursuant to CDC Section 3-
201.B.5. As the attached dwellings were approved under residential infill redevelopment project
FLD2009-12045, the proposed detached garages are also required to be approved through a
Level II application.
Development Proposal:
The proposal is to add four detached garages along the south property line adjacent to Druid
Road. Each of the four garage buildings can accommodate six vehicles and each garage building
replaces six parking spaces. The total project parking count does not change with this
application.
As part of the original FLD2009-12045 approval, there will be a perimeter landscape buffer
along the south property line between the south facades of the garages and Druid Road. The
buffer will be planted atop a two foot tall berm. In the landscape buffer immediately south of
each of the garages there will be five crepe myrtle trees, and a continuous hedge. To the east and
west of the crepe myrtle there will be magnolia trees.
Special Area Plan:
None
Community Development Code
➢ Develo�ment Parameters
Maximum Building Height:
Pursuant to CDC Section 3-204.B.9, accessory structures in any residential zoning district shall
be no more than 15 feet in height. The height of the garages is 10.33 feet from grade to the
midpoint of the pitched roof which is less than this allowable height and is therefore consistent
with the CDC.
Si�ht Visibilitv Triangles:
Pursuant to CDC Section 3-904.A, to minimize hazards at the proposed driveways on Druid
Road, 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 has been reviewed by the City's Traffic Engineering Department and been found to be
acceptable.
LandscapinQ:
Pursuant to FLD2009-12045 there will be a 25 five foot landscape buffer along the south
property line. This landscape buffer will be between the south fa�ade of the detached garages and
the Druid Road right-of-way on top of a two foot berm. In the landscape area directly behind
each of the four garages there will be five crepe myrtles as well as a continuous hedge. On each
side of the crepe myrtles there will be a magnolia tree.

➢ Accessor�Detached Garage Requirements
The proposal supports the specific applicable Accessory Detached Garages criteria pursuant to
CDC Section 3-201.B.S.a through g as follows:
Section 3-201.B.S.a. The parcel proposed for development is not governed by any special area
plan including but not limited to Beach by Design, the Clearwater powntown Redevelopment
Plan, the ZIS 19 Corridor Redevelopment Plan, or located in any activity center, along a
redevelopment corridor or view corridor identified on the Citywide Design Structure adopted in
the Clearwater Comprehensive Plan.
As the detached garages are proposed along Druid Road, they meet the Code provision as they
will not be in any special area plan, activity center, redevelopment or view corridor identified in
the Citywide Design Structure adopted in the Clearwater Comprehensive Plan.
Section 3-201. B. S. b. Such detached garages shall be setback at least 25 feet from the front
properry line and shall comply with the side setbacks of the zoning district in which the project is
located.
The detached garages are setback a minimum of 25 feet from the front (south) property line
adjacent to Druid Road and are not located along any side property lines.
Section 3-201. B. 5. c. Such detached garages shall not obstruct access to the primary use.
There is a 24 foot wide vehicular use area between the apartment buildings and the garages. As
such, the garages will not obstruct access to the primary use (apartments).
Section 3-201. B. 5. d. Such detached garages shall be designed as an integral part of the
architectural design of the principal structures, the same materials, colors, roof design and other
architectural details shall be incorporated into the design of the detached garages.
The overall design of the garages mimics that of the apartments. Both the apartments and garages
have shingled roofs with owens corning estate grey shingles, hardi board horizontal siding in
bonsai tint SW 6436 color, gabled roof awning structures and louver details painted SW 5479
drizzle.
Section 3-201.B.S.e. Such detached garages that front along a street shall appear to contain
habitable space through the use of windows, doors and other design elements consistent with the

Section 3-201.B.S.g. Such detached garages shall not be converted to a residential dwelling unit.
The applicant has acknowledged that the garages shall not be converted to a residential dwelling
and a condition of approval has been included in this report and will be included in the
development order upon approval.
➢ General A�plicability Criteria Rec�uirements
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 amending the previously plan FLD2009-12045 with the addition of four
six-car detached garages. Under the original approva1243 attached dwelling units were approved
and through a minor amendment the number of units was reduced to 240. Adjacent to the subject
property to the south, east and west there exists residential neighborhoods and the attached
dwelling proposal provides a buffer between the single family neighborhoods and the
commercial development directly north. 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 includes the addition of an amenity, detached garages, to an already approved
development. The garages will be setback 25 feet from the south property line with view of said
garages mitigated by landscaping. As such, it is not anticipated that the garages will have any
negative impact on the 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 addition of the garages does not create any new traffic impacts either on the external road
system or internally within the development. 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.
Most of the homes in the area also have garages. Also, the design of the south facades of the
garages facing Druid was done in such a way as to make the garages appear to be habitable.
Furthermore, the garages along Druid Road area at the same setback as the principal structure
maintaining the community character of the vicinity of the development. 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.
As previously mentioned, the design of the garages mimics the design of the apartment buildings
and there will be a landscape buffer between the garages and Druid Road. Therefore, the
proposal is consistent with this CDC Section.

TO FLEXIBLE DEVELOPMENT APPLICATION
FOR RESIDENTIAL INFILL APPLICATION
Broadstone Clearwater
(fka Lakeside at Clearwater)
Description of Request
Alliance Realty Partners, L.L.C., the Applicant, proposes to revise the Flexible Development
Application originally approved by the Community Development Board on February 19, 2010
(Case No. FLD 2009-12045) to add four garage buildings along Druid Road. The site is located
at the northwest corner of Belcher and Druid Roads, is designated as Residential Medium on the
Future Land Use Map and is currently zoned Medium Density Residential. Since the original
approval of the project, there have been two minor revisions approved by the City as described
below.
lst Minor Revision: On November 18, 201 l, the Clearwater Planning Department approved the
Applicant's proposed minor site plan revision which made the following revisions to the project:
1. Reduce the number of attached dwelling units from 243 to 240 units,
2. Relocation of the Clubhouse and Building 3,
3. Revised North entrance to allow for parking adjacent to the clubhouse, a security gate
and turnaround area,
4. Reduction in the number of garage buildings on the north and west property boundaries
from four to two garage buildings on each boundary,
5. Elimination of the western driveway on Druid Road resulting in only two driveways on
Druid Road, and
6. Revision to the east driveway on Druid Road and its environs to replace the solid waste
dumpster with a compactor.
2"a Minor Revision: On August 16, 2013, the Clearwater Planning Department approved the
Applicant's proposed minor site plan revision which made the following revisions to the project:
1. Minor revision of the architectural style of the primary buildings,
2. Reduction in height of the primary buildings from 41 feet to 38 feet,
3. Increase the height of the gazebo from 17.5 feet to 20 feet,
4. Minor changes in setbacks where the setbacks will continue to meet or exceed those
setbacks required within the Medium Density Residential District, and
5. Minor revision to the footprint of the clubhouse and pool.
The Applicant wishes to locate four garage buildings along the Druid Road frontage and the
Planning Department has determined the addition of these garages are a major revision requiring
Community Development Board approval. Additionally, the City Planning Department has
initiated a code amendment to the Accessory Uses/ Structures regulations to allow accessory
detached garages to be located in front of the principal structures in an attached dwelling
December 13, 2013 Page 1
development, subject to design and locational criteria. This code amendment was recommended
for approval by the Community Development Board on October 15, 2013 and is currently
scheduled for review by the City Council on November 20, 2013 and December 5, 2013. The
Applicant is submitting this application for accessory garages pursuant to the pending code
amendment. The addition of four garage buildings with spaces for 6 cars in each building is the
only change to the project.
The utility, paving, grading and drainage plans have been approved by all City departments
under Case No. BCP 2013-05551 and the site work is currently under construction. No changes
to any utilities, grading, etc., are proposed by this revised site plan request.
Building shell permits have been issued by the City for all residential buildings, the Clubhouse,
the maintenance building, the compactor and the four garages located on the north and west
property borders of the site. This application does not propose any revisions to the location,
appearance, configuration, etc. of these structures which are currently under construction.
This revised site plan application requests the addition of four new garage buildings along Druid
Road. Each of the four garage buildings can accommodate six vehicles and each garage building
replaces six "at-grade" parking spaces. The total project parking count does not change with this
application.
Specifically, the applicant requests Flexible Development approval of a Residential Infill Project
to permit 240 attached residential dwellings in the Medium Density Residential (MDR) District
with the following attributes:
a. a Lot Area of 18.435 acres, where 15,000 square feet is required,
b. a Lot Width of 1,300 feet, where 150 is required,

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.
As originally approved by the CDB in 2010, the project contained 240 attached
dwelling units in 9 three-story buildings and three dwelling units on the second floor
of the clubhouse for a total of 243 units. Through the First Minor Revision, the
Applicant previously removed the three units from the clubhouse to reduce the project
from 243 total units to 240 units.
As described in the Introduction, there have been two minor revisions approved by
the Planning Department staff that resulted in several minor changes in the project
design. These revisions are incorporated into this plan. The only new change
proposed by this application is to add four garage buildings along Druid Road
designed as shown in the attached elevations. Each garage building has the capacity
for six cars for a total of 48 garage spaces. The total project parking count does not
change with this application.
The attached elevations illustrate two elevations for the garages: the typical elevation
on Item #5 on Page A2.5 is for the garages located interior to the project on the north
and west property borders. The elevation for the Druid Avenue garages is shown at
Item #6 on Page A.2.5 and illustrates the upgraded design elements to comply with
the proposed design criteria.
The proposed Druid Road garages will comply with the design criteria of the pending
code amendment as specifically shown in the table below:

Proposed Design Criteria, contd. Project Compliance, contd.
Designed with same materials, colors, roof Garages are designed with same materials,
design & other architectural details as colors, roof design and architectural details
principal structures as used in the principal structures. See
Attached Elevations.
Use of Windows, doors and other design The Garage elevations are designed with
elements to appear to be habitable gables, columns and shutters to appear as
habitable structures. See Attached
Elevations.
Maximum length of 80 feet Proposed Garage Length is 66' 4" which is
in compliance. See Attached Floor Plan.
Modulate horizontally or vertically by at The design proposes 2 gables, two sets of
least two feet for every forty feet in length columns and four shutters resulting in
substantial modulation over the entire
elevation which complies with this
criterion. See Attached Elevations.
In summary, the garages will meet the principal structure setback along Druid Road
of 25 feet and have been designed with the same architectural vocabulary as the
balance of the project. Based on these features, the proposed garages comply with
this criterion to be in harmony with the scale, bulk, coverage, density and character of
adjacent properties.
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 addition of garages along Druid Road as a part of this multifamily development
is not expected to negatively impact the adjacent uses. It is important to note that the
garages are located with a 25' setback from Druid Road, the same setback as for
principal structures in this zoning district.
3. The proposed development will not adversely affect the health or safety of
persons residing or working in the neighborhood of the proposed use.
Through the previous approval of this multifamily development, the Community
Development Board has confirmed that the development will not adversely affect the
health or safety of persons residing or working in the neighborhood. By adding
garages to this residential development, it will allow the residents of this residential
development to enjoy the same benefits of a garage as other residential developments.

4. The proposed development is designed to minimize traffic congestion.
The addition of garages along Druid Road does not create any new traffic impacts
either on the external road system or internally within the development. All of the
previous obligations for off-site improvements as established in the Development
Agreement will continue to be met. Therefore, this criterion is met.
5. The proposed development is consistent with the community character of the
immediate vicinity of the parcel proposed for development.
Most of the homes in the area also have garages, either attached or detached
structures. The location of the proposed garages along Druid Road at the same
setback as the principal structure maintains the community character of the vicinity of
the development.
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 garages will not be habitable space and therefore, will not have any
adverse effects such as visual, acoustic, olfactory or hours of operation. Therefore,
the proposed garages comply with this criterion.
RESIDENTIAL INFILL PROJECT CRITERIA
1. The development or redevelopment of the parcel proposed for development is
otherwise impractical without deviations from the intensity and development
standards.
The developer does not propose any deviations from the intensity or development
standards. The maximum height for accessory structures is 15 feet and the proposed
garages are 10' 1" in height, complying with this height requirement. As stated
earlier in this analysis, the garages meet the principal structure setback from Druid
Road of 25 feet.
2. The development of the parcel proposed for development as residential infill
project will not materially reduce the fair market value of abutting properties.
The general vicinity of the project is characterized by single family development to
the south and west and commercial development on the Gulf-to-Bay and Belcher
corridors. The addition of garages to this approved attached residential development
is consistent with the residential development to the south and west and, therefore, is
not expected to reduce the value of these developed properties.
December 13, 2013 Page 5
3. The uses within the residential infill project are otherwise permitted in the City
of Clearwater.
The proposed garages are permitted Accessory structures with conditions as stated in
the pending code amendment. Attached residential units are a permitted use in
several zoning districts within the city including the site's zoning district of Medium
Density Residential; therefore, this criterion is met.
4. The uses or mix of uses within the residential infill project are compatible with
adjacent land uses.
The addition of garages to the Druid Road frontage allows the future residents of this
development the same ability to have a garage as other residents in the area. Garages
are an allowable Accessory use in the City's code, are an accessory structure now
commonly found in multifamily development and are compatible with the adjacent
residential uses.
5. The development of the parcel proposed for development as a residential infill
project will upgrade the immediate vicinity of the parcel proposed for
development.
The overall development of this site for multifamily development will upgrade the
vicinity as a result of the new construction valued at $18.4 million upon completion.
Of the total project value, the value of the proposed garages is estimated to be
$ 284,000.
6. The design of the proposed residential infill project creates a form and function
that enhances the community character of the immediate vicinity of the parcel
proposed for development and the City of Clearwater as a whole.
As previously approved, the master plan concept for the overall 30 acre site is to
locate commercial development on the north parcel of approximately 12 acres at the
same depth on Belcher Road as the Publix Shopping Center on the east side of the
road. The second component of the master plan is to develop this parcel as a
multifamily residential community on the approximate 18 acres south of the
commercial site and extending to Druid Road. The overall design of the master site
incorporates a shared access way from Belcher, pedestrian and vehicular connections
between the two uses and a shared stormwater management system. There is a
positive interrelationship between the commercial and residential components of the
project and the design emphasizes those positive features. The result is an overall site
that is master planned in a manner that will enhance the character of the vicinity as
well as making a positive improvement to the development on Gulf-to-Bay
Boulevard, a major City corridor.

In summary, the project proposes a cohesive collection of residential buildings,
clubhouse and garage accessory structures in a well-planned site design that will be
consistent with the residential character to the south and west of the site.
7. Flexibility in regard to lot width, required setbacks, height and off-street
parking are justified by the benefits to community character and the immediate
vicinity of the parcel proposed for development and the City of Clearwater as a
whole.
The development does not request any flexibility with regard to lot width, required
setbacks or off-street parking; the proposed garages meet the 25' front setback and
exceed the side setbacks.
