TO: James E. Chandler County Administrator DIVISION HEAD CONCURRENCE: S Robert M. Keating AI Community Develop enterector THROUGH: Stan Boling;'A'iCP Planning Di recto FROM: John W. McCo Staff Plannr Current Development DATE: February 15, 1990 SUBJECT: WINDSOR'S INC.'S. REQUEST FOR CONCEPTUAL PRD APPROVAL (THE ORIGINAL POLO CLUB) It is requested that the data herein presented be given formal consideration by the Board of County Commissioners at its regular meeting of March 27, 1990. PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT AND LOCATION: Windsor Inc., owner, is requesting conceptual PRD plan special exception approval for a 400 unit development. The subject property is located approximately 11 miles north of the C.R. 510/S.R. A.1.A. intersection on A.1.A., and contains approximately 405 acres which extend from the Indian River to the Atlantic Ocean. A portion of this property was covered in a 1988 PRD application approved by the Board of County Commissioners as the Windsor Polo Club. Special exception uses are those types of uses that would not generally be appropriate throughout a particular zoning district. However, when special exception uses are carefully controlled as to number, area, location, and/or relationship to the vicinity, such uses would not adversely impact the public health, safety, comfort, good order, appearance, convenience, morals and general welfare and as such would be compatible with permitted uses within the particular zoning district. In granting any special excep- tion, the Board may prescribe appropriate special conditions and safeguards to ensure that the use is compatible with surrounding uses in the district. The Planning and Zoning Commission voted unanimously to approve this project at its regular meeting of February 22, 1990. The Planning and Zoning Commission did modify the staff recommendation with its motion. The modified recommendation can be found in the Planning and Zoning Commission's Recommendation (Attachment #4). The staff has not substantively changed its original recommenda- tion as specified at the end of this report.
