Ms. Cilek provided a copy of the Draft for review. She reported the purpose of the meeting was
to continue review of the draft LDC Amendment and not discuss follow ups from previous

the following actions/comments as indicated below.
Definition of Awnings
Mr. Schiffer submitted the Florida Building Code definitions for"awnings" for information
purposes.
Section 5.05.08.D.6.c—Variation in Massing
Mr. Boughton moved to amend the language in line 2 and 3 of the Section to read"Variation in
massing applies only to primary facades and to facades facing, abutting and within 150 feet of
residential districts."
Committee discussion occurred noting the requirement is already addressed under Section
5.05.08.B—Applicability.
Mr. Boughton withdrew the motion.
Committee discussion occurred on how the architectural standards are triggered regarding the
distance requirement of 150 feet provided in under Section 5.05.08.C, i.e. is it only the portion of
the building within the 150 feet or once the threshold is met,the entire building is subject to any
requirements as necessary.
Mr. Schiffer moved for the requirements to be limited to those portions of the building meeting
the identified distance requirements (not the entire building should the threshold be triggered).
Second by Mr. Boughton. Carried unanimously 5—0.
Section 5.05.08.D.6.b and 5.05.08.D.7.b.i
Committee discussion occurred noting these sections may conflict with the proposed changes to
5.05.08.B—Applicability with the standards only being applicable to those buildings abutting
arterial streets.
Mr. Boughton moved to amend sections 5.05.08.D.6.b and 5.05.08.D.7.b.i (the standards are
only applicable to those buildings fronting an arterial road and the distance cited, as opposed
to fronting arterial and collector streets, etc.) to ensure they conform to Section 5.05.08.B—
Applicability. Second by Schiffer. Carried unanimously 5—0.
Section 5.05.08.D.7.b.i.a
2
July 29, 2014
Mr. Boughton moved to amend the section to read to "Windows at a minimum of 20 percent of
the façade area." Second by Mr. Costas. Carried unanimously 5—0.
The Committee noted the change is keeping in character with the concept of reducing some of
the existing standards when feasible.
Section 5.05.08.D.7.b.iii a/b
Mr. Schiffer moved to remove the numeric references ("17"for 5.05.08.D.7.b.iii.a and `four"
for 5.05.08.D.7.b.iii.b) in the Sections. Second by Mr. Boughton. Carried unanimously 5—0.
The Committee noted it would prevent confusion in the future should a change occur in the
number of allowed design elements.
Alternate Members Participation
The Committee discussion occurred on if the Resolution creating the Committee provides for an
Alternate Member's participation and any other policies regarding these Members (do they need
to be appointed by the Board of County Commissioners, or may be designated by a Committee
Member, etc.)?
Ms. Curatolo moved to direct Staff to contact the County Attorney's Office for clarification on
the policy for an Alternate Members'participation in the Committee. Second by Mr. Costas.
Carried unanimously 5—0.
Section 5.05.08.D.6.g and 5.05.08.D.7.d—Roof Treatments
The Committee recommended Staff ensure the language in Sections 5.0505.D.6.g and
5.0505.D.7.d are consistent with each other.
Section 5.05.08.E—Site Design Standards
Staff reported Mr. Disney submitted comments in writing recommending the Section cross
reference the Land Development Code whenever necessary.
The Committee recommended Section 5.05.08 be reviewed in entirety to determine any areas
where requirements are duplicated so appropriate measures may be taken to ensure applicants
are notified where pertinent information for land development/architectural review
applications may be found in County regulations.
