a. Bryce Ward – Contractor. Present. Bobby Miller asked for clarification about the location of the property and Contractor provided more detailed information. b.

Motion to approve by Jim Bachrach; 2nd by Bobby Miller – all in favor, motion carried. 9. Review, Discussion and Decision for Certificate of Appropriateness & Fence. (R-1) @ 112 7th Street. Block 60 Lot 3. Owner: Josh Porter; Contractor: NRG Industries. a. Dennis Winterringer, Attendee – Presented the following concerns to the Board. There is no approved stormwater management plan. The Owners placed fill on this property without a sealed grading plain or floodplain management permit. The placement of the fill will cause drainage issues because one side of the lot is higher than the other. A drainage ditch may be necessary where the fence is proposed. The Board should not approve this application and should wait for the decision of the Floodplain Administrator. b. Bobby Miller stated that there is no alley on this block, instead there is a drainage ditch. c. Joe Taylor and Jim Bacrach confirmed that the application on the agenda is for the fence, and that the fence meets all the requirements of the Land Development Code. i. Attorney confirmed that the Owners would proceed with construction of the fence at risk, if it turns out drainage or anything else is necessary on the recommendation of the Floodplain Administrator. d. Ashley Leonard asked if the approval could be conditioned on compliance with the Land Development Code. Attorney stated that if there is an issue with compliance, it becomes a Code Enforcement problem. No development would be allowed if out of compliance. Additionally, it is not

necessary to condition approval on compliance with the Code because compliance with the Code is already required. Further, the Attorney stated there is a difference between stormwater standards for residential and nonresidential developments; if the review of the stormwater management plan is more technical in nature than the Board may defer to Staff review and recommendation. i. Bobby Miller stated that the Board is not in the business of stormwater engineering. e. Greg Golgowski stated that if the current request is approved but the stormwater management plan / floodplain management permit requires alterations to the site plan, the applicant must come back before the Board. f. Jim Bachrach questioned on what basis the fence could be denied, as it is unrelated to the stormwater management plan. g. Motion to approve by Jim Bachrach; 2nd by Bobby Miller. Following discussion, motion amended to read as follows: i. Motion to table this item until the next meeting the Owners or Contractor can attend by Jim Bachrach; 2nd by Bobby Miller – all in favor, motion carried. 10. Review, Discussion and Decision for Certificate of Appropriateness, New Residential Construction, Accessory Structure & Fence. (R-1) 104 9th Street. Block 70 Lot 1. Owners: Stephen and Betty Bailey; Contractor: Construct Group SE Inc. a. City Planner summarized changes made to the application following the February meeting. b. Stephen and Betty Bailey, Owners – Present. Confirmed that the sabal palm is on their property and that they intend to retain it where it is. Confirmed that the intent with the fill is to level the property. Clarified that the Army Corps permit took a long time to obtain because the property had to be inspected for historical and archaeological resources. None were found.

c. Glen Coxwell, Contractor – Present. Stated that the purpose of the 3’ brick wall is to help mitigate stormwater issues; directional weep holes could be added to the wall to further help with drainage. Additionally, he reaffirmed that all City requirements would be met in addition to those outlined in the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) permit. d. Ashley Leonard expressed concern about the requirements of the FDEP and the impact of the brick wall on undisturbed wetlands. City Attorney clarified that the City does not regulate wetlands; if the Owners are found to violate their permit with FDEP, there would be consequences from FDEP. e. Tom Brocato – Attendee. Stated that this area has experienced flooding problems for the past 50 years. Further stated that even though vacant properties in this area can hold water, it isn’t enough to mitigate flooding problems. f. Caroline Widen – Attendee. Explained how the drainage changed after the lot next to hers was cleared for development. As a result, the water backs up into the lot and doesn’t drain the way it did before it was cleared. Her concern is that the brick wall will prevent the water from draining and hold it in the lot. g. Matt Tucker – Attendee. Stated that allowing fill on this lot will increase the flood risk for the surrounding lots and potentially increase insurance rates accordingly. There are no brick fences or walls in this neighborhood. Additionally, though reduced from the previous meeting the height of the building is still too large compared to the surrounding area. h. Dennis Winterringer – Attendee. Presented the following concerns to Board. There are no brick walls in the City, so this proposal would look out of place. Bobby Miller clarified there is a brick wall by the Chapman house. The elevations don’t show an enclosure around the bottom of the building; open foundations may be allowed but the Board should require an enclosure. The stormwater management plan is inadequate and the floodplain management permit has not been obtained. The sabal palm

should be relocated out of the path of the brick wall. The concrete apron around the driveway should be removed, as it will result in extra runoff. Permeable pavers or brick would be more suitable. i. The Contractor stated that there are houses in the Historic District with brick pilings; brick could be added to the pilings here if required. He also confirmed (1) that weep holes could be built into the brick wall to facilitate the movement of water and drainage of that water and (2) that the brick wall will sit on a concrete footer installed below grade. The brick will not sit on the ground. i. Motion to approve by Jim Bachrach; 2nd by Bobby Miller – Lee McLemore opposed, motion carried 5-1. Other/New Business: N/A Outstanding/Unresolved Issues: N/A Motion to adjourn the meeting by Jim Bachrach; 2nd by Bobby Miller. All in favor - meeting adjourned at 7:35 PM.

STAFF FINDINGS REPORT PROPERTY OWNER: Brooke Evans AGENT (if applicable): N/A PROPERTY ADDRESS (if available): Mr. Fence of Florida → Block 246 Lots 1-3 PARCEL ID: 01-09S-08W-8330-0246-0010 HISTORIC DISTRICT: No CORNER LOT: Yes ACREAGE: -- (~9,000 SF) FUTURE LAND USE: R-2 Multi-family Residential WETLANDS: No FLOODPLAIN: “X” DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT: → Installation of new 6’ white vinyl fence to replace existing metal and wood fence. o Placement of new fence on the property will not be the same as the existing fence. STAFF FINDINGS: Code of Ordinances: → Section 111-288(e). o Requirements apply to all zoning districts and the historic district. a. Application for approval of any new fence or material alteration of an existing fence must be made in the same manner as for authorization of a building permit with a full description of materials to be used, dimensions and placement clearly stated on the plans. It is not necessary for a landscape architect or engineer to draw or sign and seal the plans. b. Fences shall be erected on the lot of the applicant and shall not extend into a public right-of-way. Fences may be erected within the required setback area (i.e., area between the front, side, and rear property lines and the front, side, and rear setback lines).

c. A fence may abut but shall not be located on any property line. o All residential districts.  No fence or wall in excess of four feet (48 inches) in height shall be allowed in the front yard (for corner lots, the two sides of the lot paralleling the two streets). • The proposed fence will not be located in the front yard.  As required in section 111-288(b) above, front-yard fences on corner lots may not exceed two and one-half feet (30 inches) in height within 50 feet of the point of intersection of two streets. • The proposed fence will not be located in the front yard.  A fence extending from the side of a principal structure to the side lot line shall attach to the structure no closer to the front lot line than where the facade (not including any covered front porch, uncovered porch, uncovered steps, and uncovered balconies) is located. These fences shall not exceed six feet (72 inches) in height. • The proposed fence will attach to the side of the principal structure toward the front lot line, because the subject property is a corner lot.  No fence or wall in excess of six feet (72 inches) in height shall be allowed in side and/or rear yards. These fences may begin from the rear of the principal structure facade. • The requested 6’ fence may be permitted if it is attached to the house’s rear façade. See proposed alteration to the submitted site plan in red.  All fence construction, repair and replacement of any section or portion thereof must be consistent with the remaining fence on the property. The intent of this section is to ensure that all fencing erected on a property is uniform and consistent in construction and appearance. RECOMMENDATION: Approval on the condition that the fence on the street side (front lot line) must be attached to the rear of the principal structure, not the side.
