ti. BOOK 107 PAGE 261 The Board reviewed a Memorandum of September 30, 1998: TO: James E. Chandler County Administrator DpnVION HEAD CONCURRENCE: Obert M. Keating, . P CommunityDe�velop ent D' r THROUGH: Stan Boling AICP Planning Director FROM: John W. McCoy, AICP .'� A Senior Planner, Current Development DATE: September 30, 1998 SUBJECT: Windsor Properties' Request for Conceptual PD Plan Modification and Expansion It is requested that the data herein presented be given formal consideration by the Board of County Commissioners at its regular meeting of October 6, 1998. Knight, McGuire & Associates, Inc. has submitted an application for approval to modify the Windsor conceptual PD plan and expand the area covered by the PD. No increase in the density or total number of units is proposed. The conceptual PD plan modification is needed to allow design waivers not anticipated or covered by the original and approved conceptual PD plan and to allow certain types of small units along the project's north and west perimeters. The conceptual PD modification is also needed to add new property owned by Windsor to the PD development. The applicant is proposing to add 4.7 acres of multi -family zoned property to the Windsor development. That property is located on the east side of SR A -1-A just north of the Sanderling Subdivision. Please see attachment #2. This parcel will be added to an existing 4.7 acre parcel already within the Windsor development to form a 9.4 acre parcel "enclave" located between the Sanderling Subdivision and Golden Sands county park (please see Attachment #2). The modified conceptual PD plan proposes up to thirty multi -family or single family units on the 9.4 acre parcel, which is within the RM -3 (Residential Multi -Family District up to 3 units per acre) zoning district. Besides the expansion, the applicant is seeking several minor waiver/design modifications to clarify some design and building practices that have evolved over time and to legalize one specific type of balcony and roof encroachment into private right-of-way area. Specific modifications are itemized in the analysis section of this report. Also, the applicant is proposing to build smaller homes than originally proposed along the north and west properly perimeters. The existing, approved conceptual plan allows only the largest type of home to be built along those perimeters. Through the proposed modification, the applicant is proposing to allow the full mix of Windsor house styles to be built along the perimeters. BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS CONSIDERATION: The Board of County Commissioners is to approve, approve with conditions, or deny the special exception use request. Pursuant to Section 971.05 of the LDRs, the Board is to consider the appropriateness of the requested use for the subject site and surrounding area The Board may attach any conditions and safeguards necessary to mitigate impacts and to ensure compatibility of the use with the surrounding area. PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION ACTION: At its August 27, 1998 meeting, the Planning and Zoning Commission voted 5 - 1 to recommend approval of the project, with additional conditions. To address concerns raised by homeowners in the adjacent Sanderling Subdivision, the Commission recommended that several conditions be added OCTOBER 6, 1998 -37-
