ANALYSIS:
Location and Existing Conditions:
The total 0.831 acre parcel is located on the
north side of Devon Drive, approximately 150
feet east of Coronado Drive. The subject
property is currently developed with a 27-room
motel. The subject site has approximately 175
feet of frontage along Devon Drive. The
majority of the subject property (0.659 acre) is
zoned Tourist (T) District, but the eastern
portion (0.172 acre) of the subject property,
north of the adjacent detached dwelling at 94
Devon Drive, is zoned Low Medium Density
Residential (LMDR) District and is not part of
Beach by Design. Parking for the existing motel
is primarily located within the LMDR zoned
area. There are 10 existing boat slips associated
with the existing hotel.
The property to the west and southwest at 101
Coronado Drive is currently developed with a
108-room 89-foot hotel (Pier House 60)
approved by the Community Development
Board (CDB) on May 19, 2009 (FLD2009-
03013/DVA2009-00001). The property on the
west side of Coronado Drive (100 Coronado
Drive) has been approved for a 450-room hotel
(Wyndham Grand – FLD2008-05013/DVA2008-
00001) at a height of 150 feet (to top of roof
deck). The hotel site is currently under
construction. There exists, across Devon Drive, a
25-space City parking lot (FLD2005-08089).
Other overnight accommodation uses exist to the
south of the subject property in the block
between Coronado and Devon/Hamden Drives.
Additionally, the Aqualea/Hyatt overnight
accommodation project, attached dwellings and
public parking garage is located to the southwest
at 301 S. Gulfview Boulevard. Properties to the
south on the east side of Devon Drive are zoned
LMDR District, are not part of Beach by Design
and are developed with detached dwellings.
Clearwater Harbor exists to the north and east of
the subject property, developed with the City
marina.

pavement), a side (west) setback of five feet (to building) and zero feet (to sidewalk), a rear
(north) setback of 18.5 feet (to building) and zero feet (to patio decking), a building height of
75.25 feet (to top of roof deck) and 93 parking spaces, as a Comprehensive Infill
Redevelopment Project under the provisions of CDC Section 2-803.C, and approval of a two-
year development order; and (2) increase the permitted density by the allocation of 53
overnight accommodation units from the Hotel Density Reserve created pursuant to Beach by
Design.
➢ On May 21, 2013, the Community Development Board (CDB) approved, with 17 conditions,
Case No. FLD2013-02007 to permit an 85-unit overnight accommodation use in the Tourist
(T) District with a front (south) setback of 6.2 feet (to building) and 8.5 feet (to pavement), a
side (west) setback of five feet (to building) and zero feet (to sidewalk), a rear (north) setback
of 18.5 feet (to building), a building height of 75.25 feet (to top of roof deck) and 93 parking

permitted density by the allocation of 53 overnight accommodation units from the Hotel
Density Reserve created pursuant to Beach by Design.
➢ On January 13, 2011, the City Council approved the allocation of up to 53 units from the
Hotel Density Reserve under Beach by Design (Case No. DVA2010-08001) and adopted a
resolution to the same effect (Res. No. 11-01). The owners proposed to develop the site with
an 85-unit overnight accommodations use related to case FLD2010-08004.
➢ On June 19, 2013, the City Council approved the allocation of up to 53 units from the Hotel
Density Reserve under Beach by Design (Case No. DVA2010-08001A) and adopted a
resolution to the same effect (Res. No. 13-06). The owners proposed to develop the site with
an 85-unit overnight accommodations use related to case FLD2013-02007.
➢ On October 15, 2014, the City Council approved the allocation of up to 66 units from the
Hotel Density Reserve under Beach by Design (Case No. HDA2014-07004) and adopted a

��..,.�._ -
zoned T District), which includes the allocation of 66 units from the Hotel Density Reserve
under Beach by Design.
The 98-room hotel is proposed on total lot acreage of 0.831 acres, however, the east 0.17 acre
portion of the site is zoned LMDR District (not part of Beach by Design). The proposed site
design locates the building, pool/pool deck and all other hardscape improvements on that portion
zoned T District. The eastern portion of the site zoned LMDR District is proposed for only open
space and the retention pond. The hotel is proposed at a height of 100 feet from Base Flood
Elevation (BFE) to the flat roof deck. Driveway access is from Devon Drive. The ground level
of the hotel provides 29 parking spaces. The second floor provides 33 parking spaces and nine
guest rooms. The third floor provides 34 parking spaces and nine guest rooms. The fourth floor
provides for 24 parking spaces and nine guest rooms. The fifth floor provides the lobby, pool and
pool deck, kitchen, dining area, exercise room, administration office and laundry room. The sixth
through ninth floors provide 17 guest rooms on each floor as well as housekeeping and vending
machines areas. All parking garage levels will be open for natural ventilation. Balconies are
provided for guest rooms on all sides of the hotel building. The exterior base and body colors of
the building will be primarily Dover White and Accessible Beige. An existing masonry wall
along the west property line is intended to be retained, although a portion is partially on the
adjacent parcel, which will require an easement from the adjacent property owner.
The proposal includes a front (south) setback of 15.08 feet (to building) and zero feet (to
pavement), a side (west) setback of 10 feet (to building) and five feet (to sidewalk), a rear (north)
setback of 40.12 feet (to building) and 4.16 feet (to patio decking). All areas within the front
setback provided will be landscaped to enhance the site and building. Existing docks on the north
side of the site will be retained for guests of the hotel.
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 Desi�n: Small Motel 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
Small Motel District of Beach by Design recognizes that existing improvements in the District do
not represent the theoretical "highest and best" use of the area. This development would further
the trend of quality redevelopment and/or improvements of properties within the general area
including the Wyndham Grand and Pier House 60.
Beach bv Design: Section VII. Design Guidelines:
Beach by Design provides that the implementation of the document involves more than
community redevelopment initiatives, it also involves private development and redevelopment
that conforms to design objectives and principles established in Beach by Design. These

objectives and principles will help the City promote safety, encourage cleanliness, and provide a
comfortable environment. It should be noted that any issue not addressed in the Design
Guidelines shall be governed by the requirements of the CDC. Furthermore, the Design
Guidelines are intended to be administered in a flexible manner to achieve the highest quality
built environment for Clearwater Beach.
Section A specifically addresses the issue of density. In short, Beach by Design supports an
increase in density through Transfer of Development Rights (TDR) andJor allocation of units
from the Hotel Density Reserve. The proposal includes 98 overnight accommodation units
including 66 units allocated from the Reserve. Therefore, the proposal is consistent with this
provision
Section B specifically addresses height and floor plate area and is delineated in three subsections.
Section B.1 provides that a height of up to 150 feet may be 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. Otherwise, height is governed by the specific Beach by Design
district or, lacking such direction, the CDC. The proposal provides for a building 100 feet in
height as permitted through a Level II request in the T District. Density, as discussed
previously in this document, has been augmented through the units allocated from the
Reserve. Therefore, the proposal is consistent with this provision.
Section B.2 requires that portions of any structures which exceed 100 feet are spaced at least
100 feet apart. 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 is 100 feet in height. Therefore, this Guideline
is not applicable to the proposal.
Section B.3 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 floorplate between 45 feet and 100 feet is 24,417 square. 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:
Community Development Board — April 21, 2015

DEVELOPMENT REVIEW DIVISION
. '�e,�r'x"�F .�.._ +5 : �.
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 15,764 square feet. The applicant has provided (Sheet AS_5) that 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 any building fa�ade continues for
more than 100 feet in length without the required offset as seen on Sheet AS_5. 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 and panels, parapet caps and similar detailing on all
facades. Coverage ranges between 61 and 69 percent of any given fa�ade (Sheets AS_6 and
AS_7). 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 (Sheet AS_8) that the overall building mass between 45 and 100 feet
constitutes approximately 34 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 Devon Drive right-of-way is 60 feet in width. The
four-story base of the building, consistent in height with the building directly west, is 15 feet
from the street right-of-way while the hotel directly west is setback only five feet from the
Devon Drive right-of-way. Above the first four floors, the building steps back on the east and
west sides providing an increased setback from the hotel to the west and detached dwelling to
the east. 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 includes overnight accommodations (with accessory uses for hotel guests
only). Therefore, this provision is supported by the proposal.
Section D addresses the issues of sidewalk widths, setbacks and stepbacks. These topics are
quantified in three parts as follows:
Section D.1 provides that the distances from structures to the edge of the right-of-way should
be 15 feet along arterials, and 12 feet along local streets. The proposal provides a building
setback of 15 feet along Devon Drive which is a local street. The proposal includes a
sidewalk along Devon Drive five feet in width which matches the existing sidewalk for the
property directly west. Therefore, this Guideline is met by this proposal.

P pp DEVELOPMENT REV�W DIVISION
� �.�. ��:w� r � _
Section D.2 provides that except for the side and rear setbacks set forth elsewhere in Beach
by Design, no side or rear setback lines are recommended, except as may be required to
comply with the City's Fire Code. The Small Motel District requires 10 foot side setbacks.
The proposal includes a side (east) setback of 10 feet (to building) and side (west) setback of
41.2 feet (to building). Therefore, this Guideline is met by this proposal.
Section D.3 addresses setbacks and stepbacks along Coronado and Hamden Drives.
Buildings constructed with a front setback of 15 feet or more sha11 stepback with a minimum
depth of 15 feet from the setback line at a height not more than 25 feet. The proposal is
located along Devon Drive and thus the setbacks and stepbacks along Coronado and Hamden
Drives is not applicable.
Section E addresses issues of street-level facades and the incorporation of human-scale features
into the facades of buildings in three parts.
Section E.1 requires that at least 60 percent of the street level facades (the portion of the
building within 12 feet of grade) of buildings used for nonresidential purposes which abut a
public street or pedestrian access way, will include windows or doors that allow pedestrians
to see into the building, or landscaped or hardscaped courtyard or plazas, where street level
facades are set back at least 15 feet from the edge of the sidewalk and the area between the
sidewalk and the facade is a landscaped or hardscaped courtyard or plaza. In addition
parking structures should utilize axchitectural details and design elements such as false
recessed windows, arches, planter boxes, metal grillwork, etc. instead of transparent
alternatives. When a parking garage abuts a public road or other public place, it will be
designed such that the function of the building is not readily apparent except at points of
ingress and egress.
The proposed building provide for a modern, streamlined building design with an extensive
use of glass and balconies which mitigates the bulk of the structure in addition to overall
stepbacks of approximately 56 feet along the west side of the building and 40 feet along the
east side of the building. In addition, the site plan includes an extensive use of landscaping
along the south of the site fronting Devon Drive. The parking structure component of the
hotel building will include the use of the same materials as the hotel building and will echo
the pattern of openings of the hotel. Therefore, this Guideline is met by this proposal.
Section E.2 provides that window coverings, and other opaque materials may cover no more
than 10 percent of the area of any street-level window in a nonresidential building that fronts
on a public right-of-way. While this is more of an operationally-related requirement, the
applicant has committed to meet this provision. Therefore, this Guideline is met by this
proposal.
Section E.3 requires that building entrances should be aesthetically inviting and easily
identified. The entrances to the buildings are within the ground level area of the building.
Decorative lighting and other design features will be employed to demarcate the area
creating, essentially, a porte cochere. Therefore, this Guideline is met by this proposal.
Community Development Board — April 21, 2015
FLD2014-12034 — Page 6
'- C11.tF1 vt(#�l�l Level II Flexible DevelopmentApplication Review PLANNING&DEVELOPMENT
— DEVELOPMENT REVIEW DIVISION
.�. ��: .at ....-�. .
Section E.4 recommends the use of awnings and other structures that offer pedestrians cover
from the elements especially at entryways. The proposal does not lend itself to over-street
awnings and the entrance to the hotel is located within the ground level area. Therefore, this
Guideline is not applicable to the proposal.
Section F addresses issues related to parking areas. Parking is addressed via structured parking
located on the first four floors of the proposed building and the entrances will be well-delineated.
The hotel parking garage structure is integrated into the design of the building via the use of
openings which mimic the pattern of windows and balconies of the hotel component. 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 sidewalk five feet in width along Devon Drive which will match the
existing sidewalk. Devon Drive is neither an arterial or retail street and previous approvals have
provided a five foot sidewalk. Therefore, this Guideline is not applicable to the proposal.
Section I addresses issues related to street furniture and bicycle racks. Street benches and trash
receptacles are proposed along Devon Drive and shall be designed per Code and submitted for
approval at building permit. Bicycle racks will be provided within the ground floor garage area.
Therefore, this Guideline is met by 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. Fountains and/or other water features are not
proposed. Therefore this Guideline 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. The
primary color of the building will be white and sand colored stucco to compliment its sister
building, Pier House 60, immediately to the west. While the applicant may adjust the color
scheme any such adjustment would require Staff review and approval and must meet the
requirements of this portion of the Design Guidelines. The proposed color scheme and material
schedule as submitted meets the requirements of this section.
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 ofproperty within the City of Clearwater
shall meet all landscape requirements of the Community Development Code.
The proposal meets the requirements of the CDC by providing landscaping along all sides of the
site in excess of CDC requirements and supports this Policy.
Goal A. S- The ciry of Clearwater shall ident� and utilize a citywide Design structure
comprised of a hierarchy of places and linkages. The citywide design structure will serve as a
guide to development and land use decisions while protecting those elements that make the city
uniquely Cleanvater.
Objective A. S.1— Establish the Hierarchy of Places as shown on Map A-14.
Policy A. 5.1.1 - Identify Activity Centers: high intensity, high-density multi-use areas designated
as appropriate for intensive growth and routinely provide service to a significant number of
citizens of more than one county. Activity centers are proximate and accessible to interstate or
major arterial roadways, and are composed of multiple destination points, landmarks and
neighborhood centers and character features.
The subject site is located within an Activity Center identified on Map A-14 in the FLUE of the
City's Comprehensive Plan where the proposal includes a high-intensity, high density
development. Therefore, the proposal will support this Goal, Objective and Policy.
Objective A. S. S- Promote high quality design standards that support Clearwater's image and
contribute to its identity.
The proposal includes the redevelopment of a lot currently used as overnight accommodations
with 98 new hotel units. The proposal includes a new attractive building which meets the
requirements of the Design Guidelines of Beach by Design 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.
The proposal is consistent with the vision of Beach by Design, the Small Motel 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 of 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

DEVELOPMENT REVIEW DIVISION
being met (perhaps even exceeded) in many areas of the Beach. The proposed hotel should be
seen as an important component in fulfilling the vision of the Beach Walk 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 an allocation of 66 hotel
units from the Reserve which allows for a total of 98 hotel units. The redevelopment of this
parcel with a hotel will play an important role in the continuing renewal and revitalization of the
Beach. Therefore, the proposal supports this Policy.
Objective A.6.6 - Tourism is a substantial element of the Ciry'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 100
feet. However, this height is mitigated in several ways:
l. The bulk of the building is setback a minimum of approximately 15 feet from the front
property line;
2. Lush landscaping will be provided along the south side of the building with additional
landscaping along the other three sides of the building;

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 the property with a new attractive building, a vibrant use
(overnight accommodations with accessory amenities including a restaurant for hotel guests
only) and will contribute to the public space with lush landscaping and sidewalk five feet in
width along Devon Drive. The sidewalk along Devon Drive will match the existing sidewalk to
the west of the site. The development is considered innovative by the incorporation of units
allocated from the Reserve. 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 prope�ties 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, restaurants and
detached dwellings. The proposed hotel will constitute an appropriate use for the neighborhood
and is a use within the Small Motel District of Beach by Design. Surrounding properties will be
enhanced through the addition of uses 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 could be considered an outdated 27-unit hotel
in one of the more valuable areas of the City vis-a-vis tourism with a new 98-unit hotel. In
addition, the new hotel will create 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. In addition, this proposal provides landscaping along all sides of the building. The
landscape design incorporates plant material that is native and/or naturalized and salt tolerant,
while providing visual interest. Therefore, the proposal supports this CDC Section.
Section 1-103. E. S. 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 an attractive new hotel.
The proposal will be consistent with the desired form and function of the design guidelines of
Beach by Design. Therefore, the proposal supports this CDC Section.
Section 2-401.1 Intent of the T District and RFH FL UP classification.
The CDC provides that it is the intent of the T District that development be consistent with the
Countywide Future Land Use Plan as required by state law. The uses and development potential
of a parcel of land within the T District shall be determined by the standards found in this
Development Code as well as the Countywide Future Land Use Designation of the property,
including any acreage or floor area restrictions set forth in the Rules Concerning the
Administration of the Countywide Future Land Use Plan, as amended from time to time. For
those parcels within the T District that have an area within the boundaries of and governed by a
special area plan approved by the city council and the countywide planning authority, maximum

development potential shall be as set forth for each classification of use and location in the
approved plan.
Section 2.3.3.4.6 of the Countywide Land Use Rules provides that the purpose of the RFH FLUP
classification is to depict those areas of the County that are now developed, or appropriate to be
developed, with high density residential and resort, tourist facility uses, and to recognize such
areas as well-suited for the combination of residential and temporary lodging use consistent with
their location, surrounding uses, transportation facilities and natural resource characteristics of
such areas.
The site is proposed to be developed with a hotel which is a use permitted by the RFH FLUP
classification.
Development Parameters:
Densitv:
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.
On October 15, 2014, the City Council approved the allocation of up to 66 units from the Hotel
Density Reserve under Beach by Design (Case No. HDA2014-07004) and adopted a resolution
to the same effect (Res. No. 14-32). The proposal includes 98 hotel rooms as consistent with
HDA2014-07004.
Impervious Surface Ratio (ISR):
Pursuant to the Countywide Future Land Use Plan and CDC Section 2-801.1, the maximum
allowable ISR for properties with a designation of Resort Facilities High is 0.95. The overall
proposed ISR is 0.80, based on only that area zoned T District, which is consistent with the Code
provisions. It is noted that the 0.17 acre zoned LMDR District is proposed as a retention pond
and open space, with no impervious surfaces.
Minimum Lot Area and Width:
Pursuant to CDC Table 2-803, there is no minimum required lot area and width 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 can range between
10,000 — 20,000 square feet. The lot area for that portion of the subject property zoned T District
is 28,688 square feet. The eastern 7,473 square feet of the subject property is zoned LMDR
District. Pursuant to the same Table, the minimum lot width for overnight accommodations can
range between 100 — 150 feet. The lot width along Devon Drive is approximately 175 feet. The
site 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-
802, the minimum front setback for Overnight Accommodations can range between 10 and 15
feet and minimum side setbacks between zero and 10 feet.
Community Development Board — April 21, 2015

" �.���������:_ , .
The proposal includes a front (south) setback of 15.08 feet (to building) and zero feet (to
pavement), a side (west) setback of 10 feet (to building) and five feet (to sidewalk), a rear (north)
setback of 40.12 feet (to building) and 4.16 feet (to patio decking). The proposal is consistent
with the setback requirements of CDC Table 2-803 for Comprehensive Infill Redevelopment
Proj ects.
Maximum Buildin�Hei�
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 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 up to 100 feet. Please note
that height is measured from the point from which minimum floor elevations in flood prone areas
have been established by law to the highest finished roof surface in the case of a building with a
flat roof. The proposed building height of 100 feet is generally permitted as the site received
density via the Reserve and the building meets all applicable portions of the Design Guidelines.
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 maximum of 16 feet above the otherwise permitted height. It should be noted that this
CDC section further provides that structures permanently affixed to the roof that accommodate
rooftop occupancy shall only be permitted if within the maximum allowable height. This will
limit the potential for rooftop activities and occupancy by guests of the hotel.
Minimum Off-street Parkin�:
Pursuant to CDC Table 2-803, there is no minimum off-street parking requirement for
Comprehensive Infill Redevelopment Projects. However, as a point of reference, pursuant to
Tables 2-802 parking for Overnight Accommodations is 1.2 spaces per unit which requires a
minimum of 118 spaces for 98 hotel rooms where a minimum of 118 spaces are provided. The
parking garage must comply with the Building Code and have a vertical clear height for a11
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.
Mechanical Equipment;
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 the building 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 inechanical equipment will also be reviewed
at time of the building permit submission.
Sight Visibility Triangles:
Pursuant to CDC Section 3-904.A, to minimize hazards at the intersection of streets and/or
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 adjacent to the site. All utilities that will serve the site will be placed
underground. It is unknown of the location of proposed electric panels, boxes and meters for this
hotel. If located exterior to the building, this electrical equipment should be painted the same
color as the building to ensure views are minimized. The location and potential views of such
electrical equipment will be addressed at the building permit stage.
Landscaping:
Pursuant to CDC Section 3-1202.D, there are no perimeter buffers required in the Tourist District
for this site. This proposal meets or exceeds the required minimum five foot wide building
foundation landscape area along Devon Drive. There will also be foundation or perimeter
plantings along the other three sides of the building. The landscape design incorporates plant
material that is native and/or naturalized and salt tolerant, while providing visual interest. The
pedestrian scale along Devon Drive will be enhanced with accent and palm trees, shrubs and
groundcover beds.
Solid Waste:
A solid waste component will be located within the loading area within the southwest corner of
the building. The dumpster will be rolled out to a staging area along Devon Drive for servicing.
The proposal has been found to be acceptable by the City's Solid Waste Department.
Si n�a�
The proposal does not include a signage package at this time. All signage will be required to
meet the applicable portions of the Community Development Code and the Design Guidelines of
Beach by Design.
Compliance with General Applicability Standards:
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 98-unit hotel within a 9-story building. The proposed building includes
a contemporary design that will make it an attractive landmark at this location. The subject site
is surrounded by a myriad of uses indicative of a tourist destination including overnight
accommodations, retail sales and services, bars, resta.urants and detached dwellings. The
proposed hotel development will constitute an appropriate use for the neighborhood and is a
desired use within the Small Motel 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 immediate vicinity is typified by buildings between one and 10 floors.
Therefore, the proposal supports this Code section.

- � :�;;�� . . t
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 Small
Motel 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. The proposal will not impair the value of adjacent properties nor prevent
or discourage their redevelopment. 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 98-unit hotel will increase the amount of traffic in the area. However, this
expected increase in traffic has been mitigated with ample space for vehicle stacking on site.
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 overnight accommodations, retail sales and services, bars, restaurants and detached
dwellings between one and 10 stories. 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. This is accomplished by locating solid waste facilities within the building
and by locating the outdoor pool and patio on the fifth floor on the east side of the building away
from nearby residential uses to the east. There should be no olfactory impacts of any kind. The
bulk of the building (the tower component) has significant stepbacks from the east and west sides
of the building and adjacent properties. Therefore, the proposal is consistent with this CDC
Section.
Compliance with Flexibility Criteria:
The proposal supports the specific Comprehensive Infill Redevelopment Project criteria pursuant
to CDC Section 2-803.D as follows:
1. The development or redevelopment is otherwise impractical without deviations from the use
and/or development standards set forth in this zoning district.

The site is the recipient of 66 units from the Reserve. It is generally understood that a viable
overnight accommodation project on the Beach requires additional density and, in turn
certain amounts of flexibility with regard to setbacks and height. The requested decrease in
the front (south) setback to zero feet and side (west) setback to five feet is only for an at-
grade sidewalk. The requested decrease in rear (north) setback to 4.16 feet is for an at-grade
patio. No decreases in setbacks to building are requested and setbacks consistent with the
CDC are otherwise provided. The proposed height of 100 feet is mitigated by overall
building stepbacks and is, in fact, encouraged in this area of Beach by Design for buildings
which meet the requirements of the Design Guidelines (which this project has been adjudged
to have met as explored in detail elsewhere in this report) and which have acquired additional
density through mechanisms such as the Reserve. In fact, one of the strategies of Beach by
Design is to "optimize project densities" on the Beach. In short, 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 with the number of proposed units the requested level of flexibility is
needed. As such, the proposal is a reasonably expected design solution consistent with
established and approved uses on adjacent properties. It follows that 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.
As mentioned, all surrounding properties are developed with a variety of destination resort
uses including overnight accommodations, retail sales and services, bars, restaurants and
detached dwellings between one and 10 stories. The proposal should have no impact on the
ability of adjacent properties to redevelop or otherwise be improved in accordance with the
requirements and limitations of Beach by Design. 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 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.
S. The proposed use shall othenvise 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 flexible
standard development use. The proposal will increase the density of the site over what is
there now and otherwise permitted by the CDC given the allocation of hotel units from
the Reserve. The proposal, in addition to providing a total of 98 hotel rooms, is expected
to create additional jobs. 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 overnight accommodations, retail sales and services, bars,
restaurants and detached 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 in a
manner consistent with and limited by Beach by Design. 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, the proposal is
consistent with this CDC Section.
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 scale and scope as other developments both
built and approved in the area and, as discussed in detail, is supported by the vision of the
Small Motel District of Beach by Design. The proposed hotel is desired on the Beach
and will support surrounding uses such as retail, restaurants and outdoor 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.;
■ Variety in materials, colors and textures;
■ Distinctive fenestration patterns;
■ Building stepbacks; and

■ Distinctive roofs forms.
The architecture of the buildings provides for substantial articulation of the fenestration
through the use balconies, railings, windows and building offset. The buildings and site
design have been explored in detail as part of the discussion addressed compliance with
the Design Guidelines of Beach by Design. 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 a minimum of 15.08: from the property line along Devon Drive
and a minimum distance of 31 feet from the adjacent street as measured from the edge of
roadway to the base of the building. The building also includes stepbacks of between
approximately 40 and 56 feet. Lush landscaping that exceeds the intent of the CDC is
provided along all sides of the site. Therefore, the proposal is consistent with this CDC
Section.

SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATION:
The Development Review Committee (DRC) reviewed the application and supporting materials
at its meeting of March 5, 2015, and deemed the development proposal to be legally sufficient to
move forward to the Community Development Board (CDB), based upon the following findings
of fact and conclusions of law:
Findings of Fact:
The Planning and Development Department, having reviewed all evidence submitted by the
applicant and requirements of the Community Development Code, finds that there is substantial
competent evidence to support the following findings of fact:
1. The total 0.831 acre paxcel is located on the north side of Devon Drive, approximately 150
feet east of Coronado Drive;
2. The majority of the subject property (0.659 acre) is zoned T District, but the eastern portion
(0.172 acre) of the subject property north of the adjacent detached dwelling at 94 Devon
Drive is zoned LMDR District and is not part of Beach by Design;

Beach by Design Criteria
a) Density:
DES/GN RESPONSE:
The project will maintain an overnight accommodation density of 148 units per
acre based on a 0. 659 acre parce/ for a tota/ of 98 units. This includes 85 base
density units comprised of 32 Base Units p/us 53 Units obtained previous/y from
the Hote/ Density Pool - FLD2013-02007, plus an additional 13 Density Units
current/y requested from the density pool.) (APPROVED BY CITY COUNCIL)
b) Height & Separation:
DES/GN RESPONSE:
The additiona/ maximum base f/ood e/evation on site is (VE) 13 feet. The
maximum allowab/e building height is 1 DO feet above the base flood e/evation.
The proposed building height is 100 feet zero inches above the base f/ood
elevation maximum to top of roof, and 112 feet zero inches to top of roof top
mechanical and stair towers.
c) Design, Scale and Mass of Building:
1. Buildings with a footprint of greater than 5000 square feet or a
single dimension of greater than one hundred (100) feet will be constructed
so that no more than two (2) of the three (3) building dimensions in the
vertical or horizontal planes are equal in length. For this purpose, equal in
length means that the two lengths vary by less than forty (40%) of the
shorter of the two (2) lengths. The horizontal plan measurements relate to
the footprint of the building.
DES/GN RESPONSE:
The shape of the project site is close to a square, the first three floors of the
building, the garage, maintains similar width and length dimensions; however the
height of the base is significantly /ess than either of the two other dimensions.
Above the garage base the tower portion maintains about a two to one width to
length dimension.
2. No plane of a building may continue uninterrupted for greater
than one hundred linear feet (100'). For the purpose of this standard,
interrupted means an offset of greater than five feet (5').
DESIGN RESPONSE:
1
FLD2015-02006 40 Devon Dr.' 2015
The proposed design adds many horizontal steps in the building facades such
that no one surface is longer than 100 feet without a break in the fa�ade. See
attached p/ans and e/evations,
3. At least sixty percent (60%) of any elevation will be covered
with windows or architectural decoration. For the purpose of this standard,
an elevation is that portion of a building that is visible from a particular
point outside the parcel proposed for development.
DES/GN RESPONSE:
In the proposed elevation desic
composed of windows, balconies,
facade is comprised of a minii
decoration.

4. No more than sixty percent (60%) of the theoretical maximum
building envelope located above forty-five feet (45') will be occupied by a
building. However, in those instances where an overnight accommodations
use on less than 2.0 acres that has been allocated additional density via the
Hotel Density Reserve, no more than seventy-�ve percent (75%) of the
theoretical maximum building envelope located above forty-five feet (45')
may be occupied by a building unless the property is located between
Gulfview Boulevard and the Gulf of Mexico, then no more than 70% may be
occupied by a building.
DES/GN RESPONSE:
The proposed design occupies approximate/y 35% of the "Theoretica/ Building
Envelope" above 45'. This is significantly less than the allowable 75%.
See attached p/ans and e/evations,
5. The height and mass of buildings will be correlated to: (1) the
dimensional aspects of the parcel of the parcel proposed for development
and (2) adjacent public spaces such as streets and parks.
DES/GN RESPONSE:
The building height is maintained at 100-feet. The height is allowed for in Beach
by Design
See attached p/ans and e/evations,
6. Buildings may be designed for a vertical or horizontal mix of
permitting uses.
DES/GN RESPONSE:
2
FLD2015-02006 40 Devon Dr. j 2015
The building will be designed to provide dining, recreation, and a mix of uses
typical in a limited service Hotel.
d) Setbacks 8� Stepbacks:
1. Rights-of-way.
The area between the building and the edge of the pavement as existing
and planned should be sufficiently wide to create a pedestrian-friendly
environment. The distances from structures to the edge of the right-of-way
should be:
a) Fifteen feet (15') along arterials,
b) Twelve feet (12') along local streets.
DES/GN RESPONSE:
The design proposes the required 15' setback a/ong 1Sr St. and Devon
Drive for a portion of the building frontage, then the building stepback increases
to 20' and 25'.
2. Side and Rear Setbacks
Except for the setbacks set forth above, no side or rear setback lines are
recommended, except as may be required to comply with the City's Fire Code.
DES/GN RESPONSE:
A 10' setback is proposed a/ong the west property line. We are a/so proposing a
0 feet setback to pavement and 4 foot setback, to structure, a/ong the existing
seawal/, with the building above cantilevering 8' to a 10 foot setback
3. Coronado Drive Setbacks and Stepbacks.
To reduce upper story massing along the street and ensure a human scale
street environment, buildings using the hotel density reserve along
Coronado Drive shall be constructed in accordance with the following:
a. Buildings constructed with a front setback of fifteen feet (15') or
more shall stepback with a minimum depth of fifteen feet (15') from
the setback line at a height not more than twenty-five feet (25').
DES/GN RESPONSE:
N/A
b. Buildings constructed with a front setback greater than or equal to
ten feet (10') and less than fifteen feet (15') shall stepback at a height
not more than finrenty feet (20'). The required stepback/ setback ratio
3
FLD2015-02006 40 Devon Dr. I 2015
is one and one-half feet (1.5') for every one foot (1') reduction in
setback in addition to the minimum stepback of fifteen feet (15').
DES/GN RESPONSE:
N/,4
c. Buildings constructed with a front setback of less than ten feet (10')
shall provide a building stepback required stepback/ setback ratio is
two and one-half feet (2.5') for every one foot (1') reduction in setback
in addition to the minimum stepback of fifteen feet (15').
DES/GN RESPONSE:
N/A
d. To achieve
stepbacks rr
building sh,
neighboring
upper story facade variety and articulation, additional
iay be required. To avoid a monotonous streetscape, a
all not replicate the stepback configuration of the
buildings including those across rights-of-way.
DES/GN RESPONSE:
N/A
e. Required stepbacks shall span a minimum of 75% of the building
frontage width.
DES/GN RESPONSE:
N/A
e) Street-Level Facades
The human scale and aesthetic appeal of street-level facades, and their
relationship to the sidewalk, are essential to a pedestrian-friendly
environment. Accordingly:
At least sixty percent (60%) of the street level facades of buildings used for
nonresidential purposes which abut a public street or pedestrian access
way, will be transparent. For the purpose of this standard:
a) street level facade means that portion of a building facade from ground
level to a height of twelve feet (12')
DES/GN RESPONSE:
At /east 60% of the street leve/ facades are transparent. The facades open to the
insef building entry and drop-off area. The garage is decorative/y screened with
meta/ screening. Additiona/ly, as defined be/ow, the buildings step back 15 feet
4
FLD2015-02006 40 Devon Dr. � 2015
or more from the street front facades, so the streetscapes are effectively 100%
transparent. See attached p/ans and e/evations,
b) transparent means windows or doors that allow pedestrians to see into:
the building, or
ii. landscaped or hardscaped courtyard or plazas, where street level
facades are set back at least fifteen feet (15') from the edge of the sidewalk
and the area between the sidewalk and the facade is a landscaped or
hardscaped courtyard
DES/GN RESPONSE:
The buildings step back 15 feet or more from the street front facades, so the
streetscapes are effective/y 100% transparent. See attached p/ans and
e/evations,
c) Parking structures should utilize architectural details and design elements
such a false recessed windows, arches, planter boxes, metal grillwork, etc.
instead of transparent alternatives. When a parking garage abuts a public
road or other public place, it will be designed such that the function of the
building is not readily apparent except at points of ingress and egress.
DES/GN RESPONSE:
The design proposes decorative/y screened and articu/ated garage openings on
the first two leve/s. At the 2nd /eve/ we propose undecorated garage openings,
however, the openings will still be modu/ated to coordinate with the general
rhythm and pattern of the other building fa�ade openings and windows. The
openings in the parking area at the 3rd f/oor /evel is pulled back minimally 15 feet
from the face of the building, effective/y hiding the openings from pedestrian and
higher /evels.
See attached plans and e%vations,
2. Window coverings, and other opaque materials may cover not more than
10% of the area of any street-level window in a nonresidential building that
fronts on a public right-of way.
DES/GN RESPONSE:
Not more than 10% of the area of any street-level windows are opaqued,
3. Building entrances should be aesthetically inviting and easily identified.
Goods for sale will not be displayed outside of a building, except as a
permitted temporary use. This standard does not apply to outdoor food
service establishments.
5
FLD2015-02006 40 Devon Dr. I 2015
DES/GN RESPONSE:
Acknow/edged, there are no retail accessory spaces p/anned for this building.
4. Awnings and other structures that offer pedestrians cover from the
elements are recommended. Awnings help define entryways and provide
storefront identity to both pedestrians and drivers.
DES/GN RESPONSE:
The design proposes a high/y articulated building fa�ade that differentiates the
residentia/ tower from the more average garage portion. At the garage entry we
are proposing a two story decorative and articu/ated entrance. These fa�ade
articu/ations will serve to identify the available hote/ activity areas and entrances.
See attached p/ans and e/evations
� Parking Areas
To create a well-defined and aesthetically appealing street boundary, all
parking areas will be separated from public rights of way by a landscaped
decorative wall, fence or other opaque landscape treatment of not less than
three feet (3') and not more than three and one-half feet (3'/2') in height.
SurFace parking areas that are visible from public streets or other public
places will be landscaped such that the parking areas are defined more by
their landscaping materials than their paved areas when viewed from
adjacent property. The use of shade trees is encouraged in parking lots.
However, care should be taken to choose trees that do not drop excessive
amounts of leaves, flowers, or seeds on the vehicles below. Entrances to
parking areas should be clearly marked in order to avoid confusion and
minimize automobile-pedestrian conflicts. Attractive signage and changes
to the texture of the road (such as pavers) are recommended. When a
parking garage abuts a public road or other public place, it will be designed
such that the function of the building is not readily apparent except at
points of ingress and egress.
DESIGN RESPONSE:
The design proposes decorative/y screened and articu/ated garage openings on
the firsf two /evels. At the second level we propose undecorated garage
openings, however, the openings will still be modulated to coordinate with the
genera/ rhythm and pattern of the other building fa�ade openings and windows.
The openings in the parking area at the 3�d f/oor level is pulled back minimally 15
feet from the face of the building, effective/y hiding the openings from pedestrian
and higher /eve/s.
See attached p/ans and e/evations,
g) Signage
6
FLD2015-02006 40 Devon Dr. � 2015
Signage is an important contributor to the overall character of a place.
However, few general rules apply to signage. Generally, signage should be
creative, unique, simple, and discrete. Blade signs, banners and sandwich
boards should not be discouraged, but signs placed on the sidewalk
should not obstruct pedestrian traffic.
DES/GN RESPONSE:
Signage shall be designed per code and submitted for approva/ a/ong with the
building permit.
h) Sidewalks
Sidewalks along arterials and retail streets should be at least ten feet (10')
in width. All sidewalks along arterials and retail streets will be landscaped
with palm trees, spaced to a maximum of thirty-five feet (35') on centers,
with "clear grey" of not less than eight feet (8'). Acceptable palm trees
include sabal palms (sabal palmetto), medjool palms (phoenix dactylifera
`medjool'), and canary island date palms (phoenix canariensis). Sidewalks
along side streets will be landscaped with palms (clear trunk of not less
than eight feet (8')) or shade trees, spaced at maximum intervals of thirty-
five feet (35') on centers. Portions of required sidewalks may be improved
for nonpedestrian purposes including outdoor dining and landscape
material, provided that:
1. Movement of pedestrians along the sidewalk is not obstructed; and non-
pedestrian improvements and uses are located on the street side of the
sidewalk. Distinctive paving patterns should be used to separate
permanent sidewalk cafe improvements from the pedestrian space on the
sidewalk. To enhance pedestrian safety and calm traffic, distinctive paving
should also be used to mark crosswalks.
DESIGN RESPONSE:
Sidewalks, a/ong the building frontage, sha/l align with the existing adjacent
sidewalks and shall match the width of the existing adjacent sidewalks.
Landscaping shall be designed per code and shall be submitted for approva/ at
DRC application.
i) Street Furniture and Bicycle Racks
Street furniture, including benches and trash receptacles should be
liberally placed along the sidewalks, at intervals no greater than thirty
linear feet (30') of sidewalk. Bicycle racks should also be provided,
especially near popular destinations, to promote transportation
alternatives. Complicated bicycle rack systems should be avoided. The
7
FLD2015-02006 40 Devon Dr. � 2015
placement of street furniture and bicycle racks should not interrupt
pedestrian traffic on the sidewalk.
DES/GN RESPONSE:
Street Benches and trash receptac/es area proposed a/ong Devon Drive and
shall be designed per code and submitted for approva/ at building permit. Bicycle
racks will be provided within the ground f/oor garage.
j) Street Lighting
Street lighting should respond to the pedestrian-oriented nature of a tourist
destination. In this context, it should balance the functional with the
attractive — providing adequate light to vehicular tra�c, while
simultaneously creating intimate spaces along the sidewalks. Clearwater's
historic lighting is an attractive, single-globe fixture atop a cast-iron pole.
DESIGN RESPONSE:
Street lighting, if provided by this owner, shall be designed per code and
submitted for approval at building permit.
k) Fountains
Fountains provide attractive focal points to public spaces and add natural
elements to urban environments. They should be interesting, engaging and
unique. While it is important not to overburden architectural creativity
regarding fountains, they should meet at least the following standards in
order to be a functional and attractive component of the public space:
1. They should be supplemented with street furniture such as benches and
trash receptacles, and
2. They should have rims that are:
a. Tall enough to limit unsupervised access by small children,
and
b. Wide enough to permit seating. Fountains should be
encouraged in landscaped and hardscaped courtyards and plazas.
DES/GN RESPONSE:
There are no fountains p/anned for the property, at this time.
L. Materials and Colors
1. Facades
$
FLD2015-02006 40 Devon Dr. � 2015
Finish materials and building colors will reflect Florida or coastal
vernacular themes. All awnings should contain at least three (3) distinct
colors. Bright colors will be limited to trims and other accents. Glass
curtain walls are prohibited.
DES/GN RESPONSE:
The building colors are p/anned as a lighter and darker beige, sand and white, to
coordinate with its sister building, Pier 60, next door. All co/ors proposed are to
follow the BbD co/or palate. Please see Architectura/ exhibits.
2. Sidewalks
Sidewalks will be constructed of:
a. Pavers;
b. Patterned, distressed, or special aggregate concrete;
Or
c. Other finished treatment that distinguishes the sidewalks from typical
suburban concrete sidewalks. Materials should be chosen to minimize the
cost and complexity of maintenance.
DES/GN RESPONSE:
Proposed sidewa/ks will be designed using several coordinating paver sty/es as
well as concrete.
3. Street Furniture
Street furniture will be constructed of low-maintenance materials, and will
be in a color that is compatible with its surroundings.
DES/GN RESPONSE:
There are no benches being proposed current/y, for this proposal.
4. Color Palette
A recommended palette for building colors is presented on the following
page.
DES/GN RESPONSE;
The building shal/ utilize the BbD co/or pa/ates. P/ease see Architectura/ exhibits.

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 properiy to the west is the Pier House 60 Hotel.
North: The property to the north is the Clearwater Harbor/ seawall.
East: The property to the east is the Clearwater Harbor/ seawall..
South: The property to the south includes Devon Drive right of way a
residential building to the southeast and a City of Clearwater
Parking Lot.
The scale, bulk, coverage and density of the proposed project are in
keeping with the Design Guidelines set forth in Beach by Design for the
Small Motel District. The proposed hotel project maintains the existing
use, and maintains a maximum height of 100" foot above BFE=13.
The proposed project will enhance this area of the beach in a number of
ways, including:
• Demolition and Re-Development of an older hotel site.
• Construction of a new hotel consistent with new City code and
Beach by Design criteria.
• Upgrade in landscaping from a minimal condition, to areas of
planting and grassed open space and ha�dscape areas.
• Providing a destination hotel on Clearwater Beach.
• Setting an example in a Beach by Design district that will likely
inspire new development in the area.
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 development maintains an existing appropriate land use
according to Beach by Design with a limited service hotel that caters to
families and established clientele. The project includes adequate off-
street parking. The new project will provide a positive example along the
Devon Drive to serve as a catalyst for redevelopment of new hotels and
mixed use development. This will have a positive impact on the value of
the adjacent land and also provide clientele for the surrounding
restaurants and retail shops.
�
�
40 Devon Drive I 2015
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 proposed development will be designed meet all state, federal and
local codes with respect to fire safety, potable water, sanitary sewer, traffic
and pedestrian safety. The development will create code compliant
sidewalks for pedestrian safety and will encourage persons living and
working in the area to visit the proposed retail shops.
The proposed hotel maintains the existing use and does not introduce any
new businesses that may adversely affect the health of persons residing or
working in the area. The proposed structure will comply as required with
applicable codes including the Florida Building Code, the Life Safety Code
and the Florida Fire Prevention Code.
4. The proposed development is designed to minimize traffic
congestion.
The results of a traffic study performed for this development indicates the
project will not cause significant increased traffic congestion. The
development will include a code compliant parking count (118 parking
spaces) which can be significantly increased by making use of valet
parking during high occupancy periods.
5. The proposed development is consistent with the community
character of the immediate vicinity proposed for developmen�
The proposed redevelopment project will improve the visual appeal near
the north entry to Pier 60 and Small Motel Districts. The architectural style
integrates a beach contemporary design which is appropriate and
aesthetically pleasing for the Small Hotel District.
The development maintains the existing use of the property and is
consistent with the properties to the north and south.
6. The design of the proposed development minimizes adverse effects,
including visual, acoustic and olfactory and hours of operation
impacts on adjacent properties.
The building includes enhanced design elements on the fa�ade as
required by Beach by Design including adequate windows, vertical and
horizontal plane changes and recommended color palette. The acoustic
and olfactory impacts are minimized by providing the all of the
parking within an enclosed parking garage. Hours of operation will be
24/7 which is consistent with surrounding properties catering to the tourist
industry.

Applicable Flezibility Criteria
Comprehensive Infill
1. The development or redevetopment is otherwise impractical without deviations from
the use and/or development standards set forth in this zoning distric�
The site is the recipient of 66 units from the Reserve, 53 units previously approved
under DVA2010-08001and amended under DVA2010-08001A and 13 units approved
under HDA2014-07004. It is generally understood that a viable overnight
accommodation project on the Beach requires additional density and, in turn certain
amounts of flexibility with regard to setbacks and height.
The requested decrease in the side (west) setback to 5 feet is for the proposed
sidewalk, the building actually meets the required setback of 10'. The previously
mentioned sidewalk will be screened by lush landscaping meeting the intent of Beach
By Design.
The proposed setback along the rear of the property (Clearwater Harbor Sea wa11) is 4
feet and the Beach by Design recommendation is 0 setback. The 15' front setback
along Devon Drive is consistent with the Tourist District standard requirement. The
south property line will also be landscaped to provide screening meeting the intent of
the Beach by Design guide lines.
The proposed building Setbacks aze consistent with the CDC and the proposed
landscaping will meet the design intent of Beach by Design.
The proposed height of 100' height is mitigated by building step backs of between 10
and 40 feet and is encouraged in this azea of Beach by Design for buildings which
meet the requirements of the Design Guidelines (which this project has been adjudged
to have met as explored in detail elsewhere in this report) and which have acquired
additional density through mechanisms such as the Reserve. In fact, one of the
strategies of Beach by Design is to "optimize project densities" on the Beach. In
short, the number of units directly affects the form of the building vis-a-vis height,
setbacks and area of floor plate. In order to create a viable hotel the requested level
of flexibility is needed. As such, the proposal is a reasonably expected design
solution consistent with established and approved uses on adjacent properties. It
follows that 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.
40 Devon Drive I 2015
2. The development or redevelopment will be consistent with the goa/s 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
Comprehensive Plan:
The proposal is supported by applicable vatious Goa1s, Objectives and/or Policies of the
Gity'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 Ciry'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 property within the City of
Clearwater shall meet all landscape requirements of the Community Development Code.
The proposal meets the requirements of the CDC by providing landscaping along all
sides of the site in excess of CDC requirements and supports this Policy.
Goal A.5 - The city of Clearwater shall identify and utilize a citywide Design structure
comprised of a hierarchy ofplaces and linkages. The citywide design siructure will serve
as a guide to development and land use decisions while protecting those elements that
make the city uniquely Clearwater.
Objective A.5.1— Establish the Hierarchy of Places as shown on Map A-14.
Policy A.5.1.1 - Identify Activaty Centers: high intensity, high-density multi-use areas
designated as appropriate for intensive growth and routinely provide service to a
significant number of citizens of more than one county. Activity centers are proximate
and accessible to interstate or major arterial roadways, and are composed of multiple
destination points, landmarks and neighborhood centers and character features.
The subject site is located within an Activitv Center identified on Map A-14 in the FLLTE
of the City's Comprehensive Plan where the proposal includes a high-intensity, high
density development. Therefore, the proposal will support this Goal, Objective and
Policy.
Objective A.S.S - Promote high quality design standards that support Clearwater's image
and contribute to its identity.
The proposal includes the redevelopment of a Old Hotel Building. The proposal includes
a new attractive Hotel building which meets the requirements of the Design Guidelines of
Beach by Design.
2
40 Devon Drive I 201�
Policy A.S.5.1 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, and
the Design Guidelines and supports this Policy.
Objective A.6.1 - The redevelopment of blighted, substandard, inefj`'icient andlor obsolete
areas shall be a high priority and promoted through the implementation of
redevelopment and special area plans, the consiruction of catalytic private projects, city
investment, and continued emphasis on property maintenance standards.
In adopting Beach by Design the City recognized that lazge portions of the Beach could
be classified as blighted, substandard and sui%red 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
proposed hotel should be seen as an important component in fulfilling the vision of the
Small Motel District by replacing an older outdated hotel building with an attractive new
hotel building that meets the current beach by design guide lines, and is one more step in
the revitalization of the Beach, supporting 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.
The site was the subject of an allocation of 66 hotel units from the Reserve which allows
for a total of 98 hotel units. The redevelopment of this parcel with a hotel will play an
important role in the continuing renewal and revitalization of the Beach. Therefore, the
proposal supports tlus 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 100 feet +/_. However, this height is mitigated in several ways:
l. The bulk of the building is setback a minimum of appro�umately 15 feet from any
front property line;
3
40 Devon Drive I 2015
2. Lush landscaping will be provided along all sides of the site;
3. The build-to line along Devon Drive will match existing development to the north;
The overall effect of the proposal will pedestrian-scale consistent with the goals and
vision of Beach by Design and the Small Motel 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 the property with a new attractive building, a vibrant
use (overnight accommodations with accessory amenities) and will contribute to the
public space with lush landscaping along Devon Dr. The development is considered
innovative by the incorporation of units allocated from the Reserve. 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. Surrounding
properties will be enhanced through the addition of uses 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 tmr base as a
whole.
The proposal includes the redevelopment of an older hotel building in one of the more
valuable areas of the City vis-a-vis tourism with a new 98-unit hotel. In addition, the new
hotel is expected to create approximately 75 new jobs and will positively contributing to
the City's economy and its taac 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 ciry are attractive and wedl-maintained to the maximum
extent permitted by law.
The proposal includes a new attractive building chazacterized by a modern style and crisp,
clean lines. In addition, this proposal provides landscaping along all sides of the site.
The landscape design incorpora.tes plant material that is native and/or naturalized and salt
tolerant, while providing visual interest. Therefore, the proposal supports this CDC
Section.
$
40 Devon Drive I 2015
Section 1-103. E. S. 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 an attractive new
hotel. The proposal will be consistent with the desired form and function of the Small
Motel District of Beach by Design and meets the Design Guidelines of that document.
Therefore, the proposal supports this CDC Section.
Section 2-401.1 Intent of the T District and RFH FL UP classification.
'I'he CDC provides that it is the intent of the T District that development be consistent
with the Countywide Future Land Use Plan as re�uired by state law. The uses and
development potential of a parcel of land within the T District shall be determined by the
standards found in this Development Code as well as the Countywide Future Land Use
Designation of the property, including any acreage or floor azea restrictions set forth in
the Rules Concerning the Administration of the Countywide Future Land Use Plan, as
amended from time to time. For those parcels within the T District that have an area
within the boundaries of and governed by a special area plan approved by the city council
and the countywide planning authority, maximum development potential shall be as set
forth for each classification of use and location in the approved plan.
Section 2.33.4.6 of the Countywide Land Use Rules provides that the purpose of the
RFH FLUP classification is to depict those areas of the County that are now developed,
or appropriate to be developed, with high density residential and resort, tourist facility
uses, and to recognize such areas as well-suited for the combination of residential and
temporary lodging use consistent with their location, surrounding uses, transportation
facilities and natural resource characteristics of such areas.
The site is proposed to be developed with a hotel which is a use permitted by the RFH
FLUP classification.
3. The development or redevelopment will not impede the normal and orderly
development and improvement of surrounding properties.
The proposed development maintains an existing appropriate land use according to
Beach by Design with a limited service hotel that caters to families and established
clientele. The project includes adequate off-street parking. The new project will
provide a positive example along the Devon Drive to serve as a catalyst for
redevelopment of new hotels and mixed use development. This will have a positive
impact on the value of the adjacent land and also provide clientele for the surrounding
restaurants and retail shops.
The proposal should have no impact on the ability of adjacent properties to redevelop
or otherwise be improved in accorda.nce with the requirements and limitations of
Beach by Design. Therefore, the proposal is consistent with this CDC Section.
5
40 Devon Drive I 2015
4. Adjoining properties will not suffer substantial detriment as a result of the
proposed developmen�
The proposed redevelopment project will improve the visual appeal near the north
entry to Pier 60 & Small Motel Districts. The architectural style integrates a beach
contemporary design which is appropriate and aesthetically pleasing for the Small
Motel District.
T'he proposal is similar to and will support adjacent uses. The proposed height is
similar to the buildings adjacent to the west and compazable to other buildings in the
area. Therefore, the proposal is consistent with this CDC Section.
5. The proposed use shall otherwise be per»utted by the underlying future land use
category, be compatible with adjacent tand uses, will not substantially alter the
essential use characteristics of the neighborhood; and shaU demonstrate
compliance with one or more of six objectives:
a. The proposed use is permitted in this zoning district as a»unimum standard,
flexible standard orJlexible development use;
b. The proposed use wou[d be a significant economic contributor to the city's
economic base by divers�ing the local economy or by creating jobs;
As mentioned previously, the T District permits overnight accommodations as a
flexible standard development use. The proposal will increase the density of the
site over what is there now and otherwise permitted by the CDC given the
allocation of hotel units from the Reserve. The proposal is expected to create
approximately 75 jobs. 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 demonshated 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 distric�
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 mixed use 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.
�
40 Devon Drive I 2015
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 deve[opment su,pports the
established or emerging character of an arec�
The proposal provides for a use similar in scale and scope as other developments
both built and approved in the area and, as discussed in detail, is supported by the
vision of the Sma11 Motel District of Beach by Design. The proposed hotel is
desired on the Beach and will support surrounding uses such as retail, restaurants
and outdoor recreation and entertai.nment. Therefore, the proposal is consistent
with this CDC Section.
d. In order to J'orm 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, etG;
■ Yariety in materials, colors and teztures;
■ Distinctive fenestration patterns;
■ Building step backs; and
■ Distinctive roofs forms.
The architecture of the buildings provides for substantial articulation of the
fenestration through the use balconies, railings, windows and building offset. The
buildings and site design have been explored in detail as part of the discussion
addressed compliance with the Design Guidelines of Beach by Design. 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 distances of between 30 and 40 feet from adjacent
streets. The building also includes step backs of between 10 and 40 feet. Lush
landscaping that exceeds the intent of the CDC is provided along a11 sides of the
site. Therefore, the proposal is consistent with this CDC Section.

Project Narrative for the Sea Captain Hotel � 2015
Sea Captain Hotel Building
Pro�ect Request
The property is located within the Tourist "T" Zoning District. The site's 0.831 acres has a FLUP
designation of (RFH 0.659 ac.) &(RU 0.172 ac.) which allows for 50 ovemight accommodation
units per acre for the area within the ("T" Zoning District 0.659 ac.). The 0.659 acres would
permit a maximum of 32 units. The project has received approval from the city council
(DVA2010-08001) and amended (DVA2010-08001A) for 53 units and 13 additional units
approved under (HDA2014-07004) from the hotel Density Reserve. The project is approved for
a total of 98 units, resulting in overall density for the site of 148.7 DU/acre. The Beach by
Design guidelines allows for a maximum of 150 units per acre for projects that obtain units from
the hotel density reserve; therefore, the proposed density is consistent with the development
criteria set forth in Section V.B.2 of the guidelines and is APPOVED BY CITY COUNCIL.
The proposal provides for a building 100' in height as measured from BFE where a height of up
to 100 feet is permitted where additional density is allocated to a development via the Hotel
Density Reserve. The subject property is located on the north side of Devon Drive and the
property was the recipient of density from the Reserve. Therefore, the proposed height complies
with the design guidelines, (a request to increase the building height to 100' above base flood
elevation 13' is being proposed) .
The proposed 15 foot setback on Devon Drive, for an enclosed parking garage and ground floor
building area is within the required setback distance for standard development within the Tourist
District.
10 foot building setbacks are proposed for the side yard along the west prope�ty line, (meeting
the standard development criteria within the Tourist District). The design proposes a 5 foot
setback #o the west property line for a sidewalk. The proposed building setback along the rear
property line is proposed to be 4' (Clearwater Harbor sea wall). The previously mentioned
sidewalk is by definition a structure, as such we a�e requesting setback reductions as allowed
for in the "Beach by Design" overlay district criteria. Beach by design has recommended 0'
setback for side and rear property lines.
A request for a finro year development order is also being proposed.
Locatian and Existing Condiiions
The property is located in the Beach By Design (Small Motel District), and also within the Tourist
(T) zone district. The Future Land Use Designation is Resort Facilities High. The current use is a
hotel building with residential units. The site area within the tourist district is �8,688 +/- square
feet or 0.659 +/- acres. The property currentty has 36 parking spaces. The project is not located
within the CCCI. The property to the west is the Pier House 60 Hotel . The property to the north
is the Clearwater Harbor. The property to the east is the Clearwater Harbor The property to the
Project Narrative for the Sea Captain Hotel � 201�
south includes Devon Drive right of way and a City of Ciearwater parking lot. The property to
the south east includes a residential unit.
Development Froposal
The proposed development maintains an existing appropriate land use according to
Beach by Design with a limited service hotel that caters to families and established
clientele. The project includes adequate offi street parking. The new project will provide
a positive example along the Devon Drive to serve as a catalyst for redevefopment of
new hotels and mixed use development. This will have a positive impact on the value of
the adjacent land and also provide clientele for the surrounding restaurants and retail
shops.
The shape of the project site is close to a square, the first three floors of the building,
the garage, maintains similar width and length dimensions; however the height of the
base is significantly less than either of the two other dimensions. Above the garage
base the tower portion maintains about a finro to one width to length dimension.
The design proposes decoratively screened and articulated garage openings on the first
two levels. The 2nd level proposes undecorated garage openings, however, the
openings will still be modulated to coordinate with the general rhythm and pattern of the
other building (Pier House 60) fa�ade openings and windows. The openings in the
parking area at the 3rd floor level is pulled back minimally 15 feet from the face of the
building, effectively hiding the openings from pedestrian and higher levels.
The buildings step back 15 feet or more from the street front facades, so the
streetscapes are effectively 100% transparent.
The design proposes a highly articulated building farade that differentiates the
residential tower from the more average garage portion. At the garage entry we are
proposing a two story decorative and articulated entrance. These fa�ade articulations
will serve to identify the available hotel activity areas and entrances.
Sidewalks, along the building frontage, shall align with the existing adjacent sidewalks
and shall match the width of the existing adjacent sidewalks. Landscaping shall be
designed per code and shall be submitted for approval with this application.
Street Benches and trash receptacles area proposed along Devon Drive and shall be
designed per code and submitted for approval at building permit. Bicycle racks will be
provided within the ground floor garage.
The building colors are planned as a lighter and darker beige, sand and white, to
coordinate with its sister building, Pier 60, next door. All colors proposed are to follow
the BbD color palate.
Project Narrative for the Sea Captain Hotel 12015
The proposed project wiil have 118 garage parking stails based on the Tourist standard
requirement of 1.2 spaces per development unit.
Conciusion
The beauty of Clearwater beach makes it a popular destination for visitors and
residents. The City has created a master plan to guide the redevelopment process,
preserving the beauty of the natural resources while creating districts that enhance the
experience of visitors. The proposed hotel is designed to incorporate the Beach by
Design vision with a pedestrian friendly destination, landscaped areas, scenic views
and visual variety. The proposed hotel meets zoning, and Beach by Design standards.
