TO: James E. Chandler - County Administrator DIVISION HEAD CONCURRENCE: Ego Obert K. Rea in , AIMV Community Development -director THROUGH: Stan Boling SAICP Planning Director FROM: John W. McCoy, AICP�wP& Senior Planner, Current Development DATE: February 6, 1992 SUBJECT: Windsor Properties Inc.'s Request for Special Exception Approval to Amend the Existing Windsor Planned Residential Development (PRD) Conceptual Plan It is requested that the data herein presented be given formal consideration by the Board of County Commissioners at its regular meeting of February 18, 1992. DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS: McQueen and Associates, Inc., on behalf of Windsor Properties, Inc., has submitted an application for special exception approval to modify the Windsor project's conceptual plan to add approximately 3.5 acres of oceanside property to the overall PRD. Along with this request, the applicant has also submitted a preliminary PRD plan that proposes the creation of single family lots on the 3.5 acre addition, as well as reconfiguration of some lots in an adjacent portion of the existing PRD. Since PRDs are special exception uses in all zoning districts, special exception approval must be obtained to expand the boundaries of the existing PRD. The applicant is requesting approval to add the 3.5 acres to the existing development. Although the proposed changes would add property to the PRD, the proposed PRD plan would not increase the total number of units (400) approved for the entire, existing project. Furthermore, no additional waivers are proposed with these requests; the waivers approved with the existing PRD would apply to the 3.5 acre addition. The preliminary PRD plan includes 8.9 acres, 3.5 acres of which is the new property being added to the overall PRD project, and 5.4 acres which are presently included in the overall PRD. The property within the approved PRD has previously received final plat approval and has a home constructed on one of the lots, and includes other common facilities including a dune walkover and recreation tract. The preliminary PRD will reconfigure the lots that were previously approved, essentially replatting a portion of a previously platted area. Pursuant to Section 971.05 of the LDRs, the Board of County Commissioners is to consider the appropriateness of the requested special exception use based on the submitted conceptual site plan and the suitability of the site for that use. The Board may approve, approve with conditions or deny the special exception use. 10
