Cox, P.E., Civil Engineer <br />Request for Floodplain Cut and Fill Balance Waiver for Residence at 575 <br />Highway A -1-A, Tax Parcel I.D. No. 16-33-40-00000-0030-00019.0 <br />Project No. 99020061 <br />CONSENT AGENDA <br />DATE: <br />April 19, 1999 <br />DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS <br />Schlitt Builders, Inc. has submitted a building permit application for a single family residence on the <br />subject property, and has requested a waiver of the cut and fill balance requirement of Section <br />930.07(2)(d) of the Stormwater Management and Flood Protection Ordinance. The site is located <br />in special flood hazard area Zone AE with base flood elevation of 5.0 feet N.G.V.D. The ten year <br />flood elevation is 3.1 feet N.G. V.D. The proposed displacement of the flood plain below 4.0 feet for <br />which the waiver is requested is 559 cubic yards as indicated in the attached letter from the <br />applicant's engineer dated April 14, 1999, <br />ALTERNATIVES AND ANALYSIS <br />The project meets the cut and fill balance waiver criteria provided in Section 930.07(2)(d)1. of being <br />situated in an estuarine environment within the 100 year floodplain along the Indian River and in <br />staff's opinion it appears that all other Stormwater Management and Flood Protection Ordinance <br />requirements can be met without adverse impact on other lands in the estuarine environment. The <br />applicant has not submitted an alternative grading plan that satisfied the cut and fill balance <br />requirement without needing the waiver. The applicant is requesting the waiver so he will not be <br />required to construct an on site retention area if the waiver is granted. <br />Alternative No. 1 <br />Grant the cut and fill balance waiver based on the criteria of Section 930.07(2)(d)1. <br />Alternative No. 2 <br />Deny the cut and fill waiver. Require an on site retention area be provided to compensate for the <br />proposed floodplain displacement. <br />0 <br />APRIL 27, 1999 <br />14 <br />• <br />
