INTRODUCTION
Background
Its natural beauty sets the Village of Tequesta apart from other municipalities in the
region. Tequesta is located in the northern portion of Palm Beach County along the
County's eastern seaboard. Incorporated in 1957, the Village encompasses 2.3 square
miles, bounded by Martin County to the north; the Town of Jupiter, Town of Jupiter Inlet
County, unincorporated Palm Beach County, and the Loxahatchee River to the south; the
Atlantic Ocean, incorporated Palm Beach County, and the intracoastal waterway to the
east, and; the northwest fork of the Loxahatchee River to the west.
The Village of Tequesta's boundaries within Jupiter Island include panoramic views and
beaches that attract local residents as well as tourists. As shown on the map below,
Beach Road is the main corridor serving this area, connecting Coral Cove Park and a
number of multifamily buildings located on the barrier island.
��JrijJ+�
The Beach Road corridor is evolving and has experienced redevelopment in recent years
due to the increasing demand in the real estate market. This has triggered planning
challenges such as zoning regulations, architectural design, and environmental concerns.
The vision for the Beach Road corridor district is to maintain and enhance the dialogue
between the built environment and its natural surroundings.
Beach Road is currently home to thirteen (13) multi -family residential buildings. Most were
built during the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s. One building is currently under construction.
The ages of the buildings within the corridor are as follows:
• 4 built in the 1960s (E, G, H, and 1)
• 6 built in the 1970s (B, C, D, F, J, and K)
• 1 built in the 1980s (A)
• 1 built in the 1990s (L)
• M (Sea Glass) currently under construction
These 13 condominiums have different heights, and the number of stories range from
3 to 11 stories as follows:
• 4 buildings
— 11 stories (B, C, K, L)
• 2 buildings
— 9 stories (J, M)
• 3 buildings
— 6 stories (A, D, E)
• 2 buildings

Purpose
The Design Guidelines strive to maintain and enhance Tequesta's small village way of
life, urban character and scenic charm. These guidelines encourage urban forms that
provide human scale, and allow for an enriching and cohesive pedestrian experience
throughout the corridor.
`%guesla, Qmida
Beach Road Corridor in 1977.1
The Design Guidelines presented in this document will assist in preserving the identity of
Beach Road, and will offer flexible guidelines to support development that does not
compromise the existing character of the corridor while encouraging a high level of design
and creativity.
The Design Guidelines provide a framework for the Village and developers to collaborate
toward achieving high standards and harmony between the built and natural environment.
As a complement to the zoning requirements, these Design Guidelines offer a flexible a
tool that will encourage new development to be compatible with existing surroundings.

Beach Road is a residential corridor, and the proposed buildings must reflect this
residential character and avoid the aesthetics common to commercial corridors
characterized by the presence of hotels. Since the Beach Road Corridor is in a
redevelopment phase, the intent of this document is to provide Design Guidelines to
prevent an urban form characterized by block, monotonous buildings as shown in the
photo below.

The Design Guidelines have five principal objectives:
1. To support development that is consistent with the Village's vision.
2. To encourage site planning and architectural design that will enhance the character
of the Beach Road Corridor.
3. To ensure compatibility between the built and natural environment.
4. To provide flexibility and cohesiveness in the design and planning of new
development.
5. To communicate to developers the Villages aesthetic goals clearly and early in the
design phase.

Community Participation and Feedback
During the process of creating the Design Guidelines, the Department of Community Development
held public workshops in order to have an open dialogue between the Beach Road residents and
the Village.
June 29, 2022 - Public Workshop
This initial workshop was well attended and provided the opportunity to listen to the
residents' vision, concerns, and ideas for the corridor. At this workshop, Village Staff made a
PowerPoint presentation illustrating the existing conditions and preliminary ideas for the
design and character of the corridor (see link to June 29th presentation or Appendix E). It
was apparent that the residents cared about the natural beauty of the corridor, its safety, and
accessibility to the beach. The following is a summary of the residents' desires and concerns for
Beach Road:
• Improving the safety of the corridor (parking, speeding, etc.)
• Enhancing architectural aesthetic building (heights, sizes, and shapes)
• Ongoing construction operation and disruptions
• Adding landscaping and buffers
• Being respectful of the residential character of the corridor
The feedback received from residents shaped the content of this R-3 Design Guidelines.

Atriw
These Design Guidelines are based on the following urban design principles:
I. BUILDING DESIGN
The design of a building accounts for the scale and aesthetics of a development
while ensuring its compatibility with its surroundings. Building design encompasses
design elements that should create a well-proportioned and unified urban form, by
incorporating elements such as massing, articulations, and step -backs to provide
aesthetics, movement, cohesiveness, and human scale.
II. SITE PLANNING
The design and planning of a site is paramount. The location of buildings,
landscaping, parking areas, lighting, driveways, and recreational facilities are key
elements to site planning. Site design should provide a compatible and harmonious
relationship between a proposed development, zoning code requirements, and
the built and natural environment. Designs should provide adequate drainage
and reduce stormwater runoff from the proposed development.
III. LANDSCAPING
Landscape design not only beautifies a site but also creates enjoyable and inviting
spaces that complement the building and its surroundings. Landscaping can be
utilized to soften the building massing, around the foundation of buildings, within
parking lots and right of ways, and to create a buffer between properties. Also,
landscaping can enhance the architecture of a building by creating green roofs and
green walls. Landscaping is essential to increasing the presence of urban forestry
and cooling islands that reduce urban heat.
IV. PUBLIC STREETSCAPE
Streetscape design is vital for the aesthetics of a corridor and urban character. It
refers to the natural and built fabric of the street, and defines the quality of the street
and its visual effect. The concept recognizes that a street is a public place where
people are able to engage in various activities, and is not only access to other
places, but also an experience within a space. Streetscape design provides balance
between the built environment, the road, and surrounding nature.
VILLAGE OF FEQUESTA BEACH ROAD CORRIDOR DESIGN GUIDELINES 13
I. BUILDING DESIGN
The way a building is designed defines the urban character of a community. Successful building
design provides attention to building fenestration, adequate setbacks, building orientation,
proportions, scale, and various fagade treatments. These elements, accompanied by diverse
textures, materials, and colors, provide harmony and compatibility with surrounding buildings, the
streetscape, and the natural environment. Buildings for the Beach Road Corridor should be
designed individually to promote creativity and uniqueness, and look -alike buildings are
highly discouraged.
The use of architectural elements such as building massing, variety of windows/balconies, and
appropriate vegetation can enhance the presence and visual interest of a building.3, 4, & 5
VILLAGE OF FEQUESTA BEACH ROAD CORRIDOR DESIGN GUIDELINES 14
Proposed building designs for the Beach Road Corridor shall incorporate
the following architectural elements:
Height and Massing
The height of a building in relation to its overall configuration or massing is one of the more
significant factors in determining the impact a building will have on its surrounding environment.
From a design perspective, it is important to ensure that height and massing are considered
together to arrive at a high -quality, well-proportioned building form.
Well-proportioned buildings demonstrating massing in relation to height.6 & 7
Height
The combination of building height and form are key design elements for providing proper scale
and massing which influences the sense of space and pedestrian comfort. The height and massing
of a development contribute to a built form of high standard that is designed to respond to its
context.
The following should be considered regarding the building height for buildings located within the
Beach Road Corridor:
• The permitted zoning maximum height;
• the urban character;
• the immediate streetscape characteristics;
• height of surrounding/adjacent buildings;
• strategic panoramic views of the Intracoastal and the Ocean; and,
• the relationship of height to frontage width and building depth.

VILLAGE OF TEQIESTA BEACH ROAD CORRIDOR DESIGN GUIDELINES 15
Building massing refers to the overall configuration of the building. The way a building is arranged
on its site is particularly important for larger buildings. Building massing provides a structure with a
particular shape, size, and form in relation to the surrounding areas and the road. It helps create a
sense of the space, around a building and also provides a defined character for the building.
The following should be considered regarding building massing for buildings located within the
Beach Road Corridor:
• Site size, geometry, topography, and configuration in relation to adjacent Intracoastal and
Beach areas;
• Dividing a large form into smaller forms to minimize visual impact and minimize box/
rectangular forms;
• Organizing the building's mass to express different vertical elements (e.g. a 'base' and a
'top');
• Using horizontal emphasis on tall buildings and vertical emphasis on wide buildings to
balance the overall size;
• Breaking down the mass of the building by:
o recessing and projecting elements to avoid flat monotonous facades;
o set back upper levels to achieve an appropriate height -to -width ratio;
o expressing different internal functions such as vertical circulation or entry;
o differentiating individual apartments to achieve identity and personalization.
For taller and larger buildings:
• Use transitional volumes to help integrate a development where the adjacent built
environment is of a lesser scale.
• Set back the upper floors or use a podium form to prevent visual dominance at the street
edge.
• Divide the overall massing or break up overly large forms. Where appropriate, a large
building should be able to be read as a series of discrete forms. This reduces visual
dominance and creates aesthetic interest.
• Create variation along the facade of long buildings, potentially stepping volumes forward or
backwards, to create visual rhythm.

VILLAGE OF EEQUESTA BEACH ROAD CORRIDOR DESIGN GUIDELINES 16
Step -backs
Building step -backs are architectural design elements that are applied to the upper -stories of a
development. Step -backs add interest to a building, provide human scale, and create interaction
with the street. A step -back requires that any portion of a building above a certain height
recedes further towards the center of the property. Building design setbacks and step -backs
provide the following benefits:
• Diversity in building height form, and placement
• Opportunity for adding landscaping and open spaces
• Creating human scale by proportionate height and massing
• Increasing views of surrounding areas

interesting building facades, and use setbacks to create building shape and form.
VILLAGE OF FEQUESTA 6F11 CH ROAD CORRIDOR DESIGN GUIDELINES 18
Articulations
Building articulation is an architectural element that promotes human scale by visually breaking
building massing and facades into smaller portions. Articulations can be used to emphasize
sections of buildings for aesthetic interest, create rhythm and movement along building
facades, and distinguish particular uses of building sections such, as a main entry. Building
designs should create both horizontal and vertical interests from the street and other views.
The appropriate scale for articulation is often a function of the size of the building and the adjacent
public spaces including sidewalks, planting zones, and roadways. Building design for the
Beach Road Corridor must include articulations toward the Intracoastal, the beach area, and
along the elevation fronting the road.
Horizontal and vertical articulations create architectural design and interesting buildings.14 & 15

The design of a building includes three (3) types of articulations: the top, the middle, and the
ground, as shown in the following illustrations:

Top Articulation
The top section of the building should emphasize a distinct profile or outline with elements such as
projecting parapets, cornices, different heights, upper -level setbacks or a defined roofline. Top
or upper building articulations frame the structure and are an opportunity to create a unique addition
to the skyline of the corridor. Roofs and roofline design create and enhance the building aesthetics
through the following:
• Roofs can add visual interest to the building by creating a defined skyline or architectural
feature.
• Roofline projections can break up a long ridge line.
• A variety of roof lines and planes adds rhythm and character to the building, especially for
projects that exceed two stories in height.
• For large and tall buildings, diverse rooflines are encourage to minimize massing.
Different shapes and building forms create a diverse top articulation.18

Middle Articulation
The middle section of the building should be distinguished from the top and bottom by a change in
facades such as the materials, windows, balconies, and step -backs. Balconies create an apertures
in building facades that allow the user to experience the outdoor environment and amenities. The
following are design considerations when proposing balconies:
• Balconies railings should be designed to complement the architectural style of a building
and preserve views of the natural and built environment.
• Balconies along building facades provide architectural breaks and strive for balance
between repetition and rhythm.

The pattern and proportion of windows and glazed areas are important to the building's
architectural character. Building design should incorporate an appropriate balance between the
solid wall and window ratio. Window design should include the following:
• Accents surrounding or within a window, such as muntins, mullions, shutters, or precast
surrounds
• Provide balance between solid wall and window area and not overtake the entire facade
• Provide diversity of openings and not be repetitive
• Create depth and shadow on a facade
• Express individual modules of a larger facade
• Building surfaces, walls, fenestration and roofs shall be compatible and in harmony with
the built and natural environment

Ground Articulation
The appropriate scale for ground articulation is often a function of the size of the building and the
adjacent public spaces including sidewalks, planting zones, and roadways. Ground -floor building
articulation is critical in creating a welcoming corridor that supports pedestrian activity by providing
a sense of security and community identity, and aesthetic beauty. Special ground -floor design
treatments shall provide articulation through landscaping, building materials, and fenestrations.

Fenestration
Fenestration refers to the openings in a building's fagade or envelope, and it also includes its
arrangement and installation. A building's envelope is any element of a building's outer shell that
works to maintain a dry, heated, or cool indoor environment and facilitate its climate control. The
three main components of fenestration in architecture are:
• Doors
• Windows
• Skylights
The proposed building fenestration for the Beach Road corridor shall contribute to the
articulations (top, middle, and ground), consider opening to wall ratios, and be cohesive
and complementary to the architecture. Extensive glazing walls are highly discouraged.

VILLAGE OF FEQUESTA BEACH ROAD CORRIDOR DESIGN GUIDELINES 24
Openings, including windows, doors, and skylights, should be designed for optimal performance
with consideration given to environmental conditions and building orientation.
Advancements in technology have led to fenestration options that offer sound reduction,
extreme weather resistance, solar and thermal insulation, as well as decorative and privacy
treatments.
The design of a building on the Beach Road Corridor should include fenestrations
that take advantage of these technological advancements. The selected fenestration
materials contribute to its efficiency and overall building performance. When considering
glazing options, some issues to consider include:
• Heat gains and losses
• Visual requirements (privacy, glare, view)
• Shading and sun control
• Thermal comfort
• Condensation control
• Ultraviolet control
• Acoustic control
• Color effects
• Daylighting
• Energy requirements
These fenestrations can be used at the
ground, middle, or top articulations. The
placement of windows provide environmental
benefits such as the increase of natural
lighting that reduces the usage of electricity.
Glass is the typical material used for
windows, provides daylight and weather
protection of buildings. The following are
some of the most common types of glass:

Building Materials & Color
Materials provide character and create a sense of permanence, and define architectural styles.
Textures, colors and scale helping a new building blend in with its surroundings. Building
materials should include the following:
• Be high quality and aesthetic pleasing
• Avoid the use of highly reflective or dark materials
• Be consistent with the building colors and complement the building form
• Emphasize the architectural features
The Beach Road Corridor is located within a Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA)
flood zone and is subject to extreme weather conditions such as hurricanes, flooding and high
impact winds. Design materials should include materials that will withstand corrosion, erosion,
and high impact winds. FEMA provides examples of flood -resistant materials, such as:
• Lumber: Preservative -treated or naturally durable wood as defined in the International
Building Code. Naturally durable wood includes the heartwood of redwood, cedar, black
locust, and black walnut.
• Concrete: A sound, durable mix, and when exposed to saltwater or salt spray, made with
a sulfate -resisting cement, with a 28-day compressive strength of 5,000 psi minimum and
a water -cement ratio not higher than 0.40—such mixes are usually nominally more
expensive and rarely add significant cost to the project (consult ACI 318-02,
Building Code Requirements for Structural Concrete and Commentary by the American
Concrete Institute). Reinforcing steel used in concrete or masonry construction in coastal
areas should not be left exposed to moisture and should not be stored on bare ground.
The reinforcing steel should be free from rust and clearances should be maintained as
shown on the design drawings.
• Masonry: Reinforced and fully grouted. If left unfilled, then masonry block cells can create
a reservoir that can hold water and can make the masonry difficult to clean following a flood.
• Structural Steel: Coated to resist corrosion.
• Insulation: Plastics, synthetics, and closed -cell foam, or other types approved by the
local building official.

These Design Guidelines aim to define and enhance the aesthetic character of the Beach Road
Corridor, while improving and/or maintaining property values. Proposed colors for buildings are
expressed in two (2) categories:
1. Primary building colors for building facades, and
2. Secondary building colors for larger "accent" areas such as a lower building base, roof lines
building design details, or accent trim around fenestrations.
The assortment of building colors and building materials on various portions of the building fagade contrast and
emphasis on architectural details/elements.33
Primary Building Colors
This color category relates to the majority (main color) area of facade on the building.
Recommended colors include whites, neutral tones, and through soft pastel colors such as grays,
pinks, yellows, light greens and blues. (see color palette)
Secondary/Trim Building Colors
These colors are used for select sections of the building facade and are limited to mid -range
intensity of the primary building color or a complementary color. Secondary colors shall be used
for emphasis and limited to 45% of the major surface plane they cover.
Trim colors are used for accent purposes and are the most intensive group of colors allowed. They
shall be limited to not more than 5% of the building surface. Trim colors can be darker or lighter
than the primary colors.
A. Exterior colors of a light intensity are generally appropriate. The use of highly saturated,
dark colors, or black is discouraged.
B. Exterior color schemes that attract undue attention to the building are heavily discouraged.

The color palette board includes various recommendations; however, the applicants may propose similar
colors not shown on the color palette board.
Green Building Design
Green Design uses sustainable methods to reduce the carbon footprint and create a better quality
of living by reducing the excessive use of energy and minimizing pollution. Through green design,
buildings and sites are designed to include green walls, renewable energy, and other sustainable
technological and design practices. Sustainability encompasses economic, social, and
environmental factors to focus on the needs of present development without compromising the
ability to plan/design for the future.
Sustainable design includes a wide variety of elements. Typically, sustainable building
incorporates solar panels, reusable water, and green roofs. All of these elements help reduce the
carbon footprint by reducing the amount of energy and resources necessary to maintain the
structure.
Green roofs can absorb annual rainfall and reduce stormwater runoff. In addition, they create
habitats for biodiversity, transform rooftops into usable amenities such as parks, vegetable
gardens, or other recreational spaces. Vegetation provided on green roofs can also reduce the
indoor temperatures and the urban heat island effect by offsetting heat absorption into hard
surfaces. Rooftop plantings or garden provide shade and retain water in the soil that remove heat
from the air and reduces temperatures on the roof surfaces.
VILLAGE OF FEQUESTA BEACH ROAD CORRIDOR DESIGN GUIDELINES 29
These guidelines include the following green design principles:
• The use of living green walls and live vegetation on the fagade of the building is highly
encouraged.
o Plant selection complementary to site plant palette
o Emphasize architecture or architectural elements
• Rooftop green spaces (gardens, open spaces, etc.)
o Native and Florida -friendly Vegetation
o Plant selection:
■ compatible with local sun, wind, water exposure
■ consider root systems, growth rates, maintenance levels, year-round
climate acclimation and durability
o Plant media selection:
■ promote erosion control and water retention
o Provide industry requirements for membranes, root barriers, drainage systems,
filter fabrics, etc.
o Incorporate furniture, shade structures, walkways, etc. into green roof design
o Integrate solar panels into green roof design
o Artificial turf is discouraged.
• Alternative building materials
• Obtaining/striving for sustainable and green building certifications such as: LEED
certification, Edge Certification, Green Star Certification, and other similar certifications
• Installation of Solar Panels

II. SITE PLANNING
The design and planning of a site is paramount. The location of buildings, landscape, parking
areas, lighting, driveways, and recreational facilities are key elements to site planning. Site
design should provide a compatible and harmonious relationship between the proposed
development, zoning code requirements, and the built and natural environment. The design must
provide for adequate drainage and reduce stormwater runoff from the proposed development.
Building Orientation
Building orientation is the practice of facing a building to maximize certain aspects of its
surroundings, such as street appeal, to capture a scenic view, for energy efficiency, for drainage
considerations, etc. Along with massing, building orientation is a crucial consideration in the
design phase. It should be decided concurrently with massing early in the design process, as
neither can be truly optimized without the other. Successful building orientation can also
minimize other site conditions, such as rainwater harvesting driven by prevailing winds.
'Alm a&:.0
Building orientation provides significant importance not only from the street view, but
from adjacent waterways and beaches.36
Decisions about building orientation begin early in the design phase and involve all project team
members. It helps to have input from experienced passive solar design architects and builders
and to consider site conditions such as temperature, solar access, and wind to evaluate design
opportunities. Building orientation impacts daylighting, which also relates to building geometry,
window selection, interior layout, HVAC sizing, and electrical lighting design. Utilizing computer
simulation software and energy modeling tools help to assess how building orientation and
passive design considerations affect overall building performance.
VILLAGE OF FEQUESTA BEACH ROAD CORRIDOR DESIGN GUIDELINES 31
Building orientation plays a significant role with respect to the sun usually intended to maximize solar
gain at the appropriate time of the year and to minimize solar gain in the summer. Best orientation
can increase the energy efficiency of a residential building by making it more comfortable to live in
and less expensive to maintain. The sun is lower in the sky in winter than in summer, allowing
designers to plan and construct buildings that capture that free heat in winter and reject the heat in
summer.
As with massing for visual comfort, buildings should usually be oriented east -west rather than north -
south. This orientation harnesses daylight and controls glare along the long faces of the building. It
also minimizes glare from the rising or setting sun.
C01
Orientation #1 is worst for daylighting, #3 is good, and #2 is best.37
Passive and Active Solar Strategies
Passive solar strategies use building components to collect, store, distribute, and control solar heat
gains. Such strategies include implementing large, south -facing windows, sourcing building
materials that absorb and slowly release heat, manipulating building form to influence ventilation,
and minimizing unwanted heat gain through proper window selection and glazing. Shading devices
such as roof overhangs or landscaping also reduce solar load.
Active solar strategies capture and store the sun's energy through mechanical or electrical means.
Solar photovoltaic systems generate and store electricity, while solar thermal systems heat liquid
directly and transfer thermal energy for heating water or air. Solar ready buildings have south -facing
roofs not shaded by nearby trees, structures or buildings.
Buildings oriented for passive and active solar provide multiple benefits:
• Utilize solar, a renewable energy source, reducing greenhouse gas emissions and slowing
fossil fuel depletion.
• Connect occupants to the natural environment by responding to changing weather
conditions and providing window views.
• Provide daylighting, which decreases electrical lighting requirements and increases
occupant satisfaction and productivity.
• Employ thermal massing, which reduces temperature swings and produces a higher degree
of temperature stability and thermal comfort.
• Reduce heating and cooling costs through natural heating/cooling and ventilation.
• Lower operation and maintenance costs by requiring fewer moving parts and opportunities
for mechanical failure.
VILLAGE OF FEQUESTA BEACH ROAD CORRIDOR DESIGN GUIDELINES 32
we* 40
7M.
Considering life -cycle costs and annual energy and maintenance savings, buildings designed to
maximize solar access are often less expensive than conventional buildings. Passive solar
features, such as south -facing windows, thermal mass, and roof overhangs, can theoretically pay
for themselves by reducing mechanical heating and cooling loads, unit size, installation, operation,
and maintenance costs. Compared to passive solar systems, active solar systems often have a
higher initial cost and longer payback period depending on the size and the type of technology but
may be offset with currently available federal and state tax credits.
Building Resiliency
Building orientation for passive and active solar design enhance a building's resiliency by
maintaining livable conditions in the event of power interruption and loss of heating fuel.
Daylight -optimized buildings provide interior light, and highly insulated buildings with natural
ventilation maintain thermal comfort for building occupants. Photovoltaic systems with battery
storage and islanding inverters provide emergency "power islands" during times of storm or other
grid outages.

Vehicular Access and Parking
Vehicular needs should be accommodated within a development without dominating the
appearance of the site or compromising pedestrian accessibility and safety.
Since aesthetics and safety are paramount to the urban character of the Beach Road Corridor,
these guidelines alluded to recommended, acceptable, and favorable designs for parking lot and
vehicular use design configurations. Vehicular access areas and parking should include the
following:
• Driveways should be less visually dominant and avoid long runways.
• Landscape buffers fronting the parking lot to eliminate direct views of parking lots from
the public roadway.
• Garage parking is highly encouraged.
• Where parking must occupy a front yard, the landscape plan should provide for
screening of cars from street view, and trees, should be planted to shade the parking area.
• Parking lots and similar vehicular use areas should be configured and designed as
an aesthetic asset to the development and surrounding buildings/environment.
• Parking lots should be treated as a transitional
space between the access areas, building and
other spaces.
• Parking lot and vehicular access lighting should
be designed for visual effects as well as safety.
• Parking lot light fixtures should be selected
Landscape
for functional value and aesthetic quality.
• Fixtures should be regarded as
"furniture of the parking lot" which are
visible both day and night.
• Permeable pavers and similar parking
materials are encouraged.

• Since the Beach Road Corridor is residential and surrounded by natural beauty, all
developments should be sited to maximize views and opportunities for creating attractive
and well -integrated private and public open spaces.
• Common areas should be accessible and connected by a comprehensive, on -site pedestrian
circulation system.
Refuse and Loading
The placement, screening and accessibility of refuse areas are critical in site design. Refuse and
waste disposal which includes both trash collection and recyclables ensures that neighborhoods
and environments remain clean and sustainable. Recycling reduces the amount of waste sent to
landfills. Unkept and unsanitary dumpsters and other waste can create nuisance factors such as
unsightliness, odors, and rodents.
The location of dumpsters and screening shall be in accordance with Village Code Section 78-300.
In addition, developments shall coordinate with the Village's solid waste provider to determine any
necessary ingress and egress requirements.
The site design shall consider the dumpster location and screening as follows:
• The design should be compatible with the architecture of the building(s) on site and
incorporate similar color palettes and/or materials.
• Dumpster enclosures should be screened with landscaping.
• Exterior trash receptacles shall be enclosed within a concealed structure and be in a
location that is convenient for all residents, and where noise and odors will not disturb
adjacent properties.
• Receptacles should not be visible from public streets.

Compatibility and Transition
Compatibility and transition of buildings are key factors for development within the Beach Road
Corridor. Compatibility between the proposed development and surrounding properties, as well as
other properties in the corridor shall be considered in the design process. Transition refers to the
gradual change in development characteristics such as building height across consecutive
properties or areas. A developent's scale, size, color and proportion of building elements,
components, and materials must be designed to minimize intensity in the Corridor.
When considering building compatibility within a neighborhood or corridor:
• Simple box architectural forms are discouraged.
• Building facades should be articulated in vertical and horizontal intervals.
• Large blank walls should not face the street or sidewalk.
• Where large blank walls are unavoidable, they should be treated with trellises,
planters, or other human scale architectural elements.
Proposed site design for the Beach Road Corridor should emphasize transitional elements as
follows:
• Buildings should respect adjacent properties and minimize the disruption of the privacy and
outdoor activities of residents in adjacent buildings.
• Upper floors or side or rear walls may be stepped back so that window areas and balconies
are further from the property line.
• Site and building design should incorporate design treatments to provide transition and a
mitigation of height, bulk, and scale impacts.
• Include the use of architectural style, fagade modulation, details (such as roof lines or
fenestration), color and material, and the creative use of landscaping or other screening
along the boundaries/property lines.
Because part of the Beach Road Corridor is adjacent to single family homes in Jupiter Inlet
Colony, proposed developments should provide transitioning elements to be compatible with
its immediate surroundings and the height and massing of the single family residences.
Compatibility and transition with respect to surrounding buildings.48
VILLAGE OF FEQUESTA BEACH ROAD CORRIDOR DESIGN GUIDELINES 38
III. LANDSCAPING
Landscape design not only beautifies a site but also creates enjoyable and inviting spaces that
complement the building and its surroundings. Landscaping can be utilized to soften the building
massing around the foundation of buildings, within parking lots and right of ways, and to buffer
between properties. Also, landscaping can enhance the architecture of a building by creating
green roofs and green walls. Landscaping is essential to increasing the presence of urban forestry
and cooling islands that reduce urban heat. Determining the landscape material and placement
provides a complementary element in achieving a successful development. Landscaping is a
pivotal element and creates synergy between nature and the built environment.
Landscape buffers are transitional areas between two or more land uses, which help with privacy,
nuisance factors, water runoff, and promote a green environment between neighboring properties.
The Beach Road Corridor's land development code requires the following landscape buffer areas:
• A ten (10) foot landscaped buffer strip shall be provided along the side property lines.
• A fifteen (15) foot landscape buffer strip along the front property lines for properties
within the R-3 Zoning District.
• Waterfront properties shall provide a 5-foot landscape buffer at a minimum 40 percent of
the property's total rear lot line. The 5-foot landscape buffer shall be taken from the back
side of the bulkhead/seawall/rip-rap of all waterway properties, and from the back (west)
side of the dune. This buffer strip will be landscaped with various trees coupled with
dense hedges and other plant materials. One canopy tree or three palms shall be required
for each 30 linear feet of perimeter landscape strip. Trees and Palms may be grouped,
but the minimum number of trees required by this section must be met. In addition, one
shrub, at least 24 inches in height, shall be required for each 2 linear feet.

Foundation Planting
• Planter guards, low planter walls and planter boxes on upper stories and roofs are
features that help incorporate landscaping as part of a building's architecture.
• Plantings should help frame views and should define the project entrance and building
entries.
• Foundation plantings should complement the building architecture as well as soften and
break up the building and/or roof mass.

IV. PUBLIC STREETSCAPE
Streetscape design is vital for the aesthetics of an urban corridor. Streetscape design refers to the
natural and built fabric of the street, and defines the quality of the street and its visual effect. The
concept recognizes that a street is a public place where people are able to engage in various
activities and the different experiences within a space. Streetscape design provides balance
between the built environment, the road, and surrounding nature. Public streetscape creates a
linkage between pedestrians, cyclist, motorist and the built environment, and when designing a
public streetscape, lighting, proper shade, pedestrian pathways, and amenities should create an
inviting and comfortable public setting.
The vision for the Beach Road Corridor is to be a welcoming pedestrian -oriented streetscape
characterized by the following design elements:
• Lush landscaping
• Meandering sidewalks
• Shade trees and small seating areas
Street Amenities
Street amenities enhance the pedestrian experience, and should incorporate the following
features:
• Benches under shade trees
• Planters
• Lighting
• Trash receptacles
• Bicycle racks
Street furniture shall should be placed along the sidewalks (no more than 150 feet apart).
Corridor seating should be placed under or near a shade tree to provide comfort from the
sun and other elements.
Street amenities and meandering sidewalks with lush landscaping enhance the user experience.58 & 59
VILLAGE OF TEQCIESTA BEACH ROAD CORRIDOR DESIGN GUIDELINES 45
Pedestrian and Cyclist Pathways
Streetscape design should foster a pedestrian -friendly street system, where residents can
experience safe, comfortable, and accessible sidewalks. The Beach Road Corridor currently has
one sidewalk on the east side of the corridor. Unlike US Highway 1, Beach Road does not have a
bicycle lane accommodate cyclists. However, a multi -use path or enlarged sidewalk can
accommodate modes of travel throughout the corridor without changing the configuration of the
street. Multi -use pathways and sidewalks shall meander around vegetation maintaining the
organically shaped design and natural feel of the corridor.
Bicycle racks provide safe storage for cyclists and promote alternative types of transportation.
The placement of bicycle racks should coincide with other street furniture to avoid the interruption
of pedestrian traffic on the sidewalk. Bicycle parking should be highly visible so cyclists can
locate the area immediately upon entering from the street.
Landscaping and Lighting
Landscaping within the Beach Road Corridor
should be organic and free -flowing. It should
include multiple plant sizes, clusters, single
plantings, and shade trees. New landscaping
should be compatible with the character of
adjacent properties to create homogeneous
continuity.
Street lighting should balance function, visual
aesthetics, and environmental matters, while
providing adequate lighting to vehicular traffic
and creating pedestrian -friendly safe spaces.
Landscaping and lighting treatments that flow with the curved
pathway.60, 61, & 62
Utilities
The location of utilities can impose hazards for pedestrians and motor vehicles; therefore, they
should not be located near pedestrian routes/paths. Service elements, utility meters, and
equipment should be strategically located away from the street front as much as possible and
must be screened from public view. Applicants should bury overhead power lines to eliminate
potential hazards, reduce power outages, and contribute to the aesthetics of the corridor.

Height and Massing
1 The building is NOT an urban form represented by only one rectangular block.
2 Height variations create human scale.
3 Massing is broken down into smaller volumes to minimize visual dominance.
4 Facades articulate vertical and horizontal intervals and do not resemble simple box
forms.
5 Recessing and projecting design elements avoid flat and monotonous fagades.
6 Major wall offsets carve the building form to create opportunities for amenity spaces or
pronounced entry ways.
7 Building step -backs to add visual interest and human scale.
Articulations
8 Top articulations emphasize a distinctive profile (projecting parapets, upper -level
step -backs, height variation, variety of roofline, etc.).
9 Skyline is defined by a variation of roofline projection planes that break up long lines
and add visual interest and design elements (trellis, green roof, etc).
10 Middle articulation (materials, color, balconies, windows, step -backs) to
differenciate from top and ground articulations.
11 Fenestrations (doors, windows, skylines) are cohesive and complement the building.
12 Ground articulation (variety of materials, fenestrations, architectural elements, etc).
13 The facades include movement, diverse balconies, and architectural breaks along
large expanses of walls.
14 Windows and glazed areas provide a sense of balance and scale.

Building Materials and Colors
15 Building colors compatible with the recommended color palette.
16 High quality, durable, and attractive materials are appropriate for the corridor.
17 Primary and secondary building paint colors for visual contrast.
Green Building Design
18 Green design practices, such as green roofs, solar panels, and other sustainable
elements.
II. Site Planning
Building Orientation
1 Site design and orientation provide a cohesive visual relationship between the
scenic views and the roadway.
2 Building orientation takes advantage of passive and/or active solar strategies.
3 Building resiliency, such as stormwater practices supported by FDEP.
Vehicular Access and Parking
4 Parking garage for resident and guest parking.
5 Surface parking screened/buffered from the adjacent roadway.
6 Driveway is NOT visually dominant.
7 Adequate light fixtures selected based on functional value, aesthetic quality, and
environmental practices.
Open Space
8 Attractive, well -integrated, and accessible open spaces on various portions of the
building: roof, terraces, balconies, ground floor, etc.
9 Common areas are accessible and connected by a comprehensive, on -site
pedestrian circulation system.
Refuse
10 Screening for trash receptacles and other refuse designed to be aesthetically
pleasing.
11 Design of receptacles and screening is compatible with the architecture of the
building.
12 Trash receptacles are hidden from the public street and views.
Signage and Lighting
13 Signage complements the building and is compatible with the building architecture.
14 Lighting enhances architectural character, ambience, and is consistent throughout the
site.
VILLAGE OF TEQIESTA BEA(-'H R OAD CORRIDOR DESIGN GUIDELINES 51
15 Ground signs landscaped to meet code.
16 Signage provides clear visibility so information is easily communicated.
Compatability and Transition
17 Upper floors or side walls are stepped back so window areas and balconies are
further from the property line.
18 Architectural design provides transition to mitigate height, bulk, and scale impacts.
19 Site design respects surroundings by minimizing the disruption of privacy and outdoor
activities of residents in adjacent buildings.
III. Landscaping
Landscape Buffers
1 Landscape buffers provide privacy and minimize water runoff.
Foundation Plantingf<
2 Foundation plantings complement the building's architecture.
3 Foundation plantings soften and break up the building mass.
4 Plantings frame views and define building entries.
Plant Palette List
5 Plants selected from the recommended plant palette list.
IV. Public Streetscape
1 On -street amenities (benches under shade trees, planters, lighting, trash receptacles,
bicycle racks, etc.) provided.
Pedestrian and Cyclist Pathway
2 Meandering wide sidewalks accommodate pedestrians and cyclists along the public
right of way.
3 Lighting, benches, and street furniture to support pedestrian use in the corridor.
L.andacapin_aq and Lightin
4 Landscaping includes plant clusters, single plantings and shade trees.
5 Street lighting balances function, visual aesthetics, and environmental matters.
6 Utilities are buried underground.

B. Florida's Coastal System Agencies
The following agencies protect, restore and manage Florida's coastal system:
1. Palm Beach County Department of Environmental Resource Management (DERM)
The Department of Environmental Resource Management (DERM) works to protect Palm Beach
County's natural resources (land and water) through environmental assessment, permitting,
compliance inspections, and land development review activities to ensure compliance with the
County's Unified Land Development Codes (ULDC) and in some cases, the State of Florida's
Administrative Codes (FAC).
DERM is in charge of overseeing the following: Beachfront Lighting, Lake Excavation & Littoral
Zones, Native Vegetation, Petroleum Contamination Cleanup, Petroleum Storage Tanks,
Surface Water, and Wellfield (Drinking Water).
DERM manages public beaches and two (2 inlets within Palm Beach County by preserving
dune habitats for people and nesting turtles. In efforts to combat beach erosion, DERM
conducts dune restoration, inlet sand transfers, sand renourishment of Palm Beach
County beaches, and installs support structures. As of today, DERM has overseen the
enhancement of 100 acres of dunes, and such projects include the beach renourishment
of Jupiter Beach, Carlin Park, Juno Beach, and Ocean Ridge, which all have a history of
long-term erosion.
• DERM receives funding from FDEP's CCCL program to renourish critically eroded
beaches/shores.
• In order to meet funding requirements, dune restoration projects must be conducted within a
'/2 mile of a public beach or access.
• Typically, DERM will renourish public dunes, however, in some cases; developers adjacent to
a public beach or access will sign public access easement agreements, which allows the
Department to renourish the private portions.
• In event of a beach renourishment/restoration, DERM must receive additional permitting
reviews from FDEP as well as Federal Agencies such as the Army Corp of Engineers.
According to the DERM website, a dune restoration for Coral Cove was scheduled for November
2021 through January 2022. The project includes sand placement and native dune vegetation
planting. In 1989, the Coral Cove Park Dune Restoration Project was initiated, which included
the removal of invasive nonnative vegetation, filling dunes with sand to restore natural dune
elevations, installation of 9.6 acres of native dune vegetation and construction of 4 dune
walkovers, and other annual dune maintenance.
2. Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP)
The Florida Department of Environmental Protection's Beaches Programs, within the Office of
Resilience and Coastal Protection, have the primary mission of protecting, restoring and
managing Florida's coastal systems. The 825 miles of sandy coastline fronting the Atlantic
Ocean, the Gulf of Mexico or the Straits of Florida are one of Florida's most valuable natural
resources. Florida's beaches are deserving of this status because they serve several important
functions; they are all vital to maintaining the health of Florida's economy and environment.

VILLAGE OF FEQUESTA BEACH ROAD CORRIDOR DESIGN GUIDELINES 53
To protect, preserve and manage Florida's valuable sandy beaches and adjacent coastal
systems, the Florida Legislature adopted the Florida Beach and Shore Preservation Act,
contained in Parts I and II of Chapter 161, Florida Statutes. The act provides three interrelated
programs that the Department of Environmental Protection administers to protect the state's
sandy beaches: the Coastal Construction Control Line (CCCL); Beach Management Funding
Assistance; and Beaches, Inlets and Ports programs.
Pursuant to Part I of Chapter 161 of the Florida Statutes (F.S.), the Florida Beach and
Shore Preservation Act preserves and protects Florida's beach and dune systems. Section
161.053, F.S., the CCCL is a line of jurisdiction, which defines the landward limit of the DEP's
authority to regulate construction. CCCL is not a setback line or line or prohibition for new
construction; however, construction seaward of the CCCL is subject to DEP permitting. Section
161.053, F.S., also provides activities that are exempt from the permitting requirements in the
CCCL program.
The department's Coastal Construction Control Line (CCCL) Program protects coastal
resources from improperly located and designed structures and activities that can destabilize
the beach and dune system, cause erosion, expose upland property to storm damage or interfere
with public access. In addition, coastal construction activities must be designed and conducted in
a manner that protects sea turtles and dune plants. The CCCL program applies special
siting and design criteria to construction, excavation and related activities to minimize impacts
to the beach and dune system. The CCCL location is set at the upland limits of the damaging
effects of a 100-year coastal storm as predicted by coastal engineering models. Condominiums,
hotels, homes, pools and boardwalks, etc., to be constructed seaward of the CCCL must meet
the specific requirements of this program.
3. Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation (FWC)
Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation provides guidelines of general information for property
owners living adjacent to sea turtle nesting beaches. These guidelines are specifically
designed to help property owners required to avoid and minimize lighting impacts to sea
turtles as part of State permitting projects, such as CCCL permits and Environmental Resource
Permits. In this permitting process, property owners must minimize all lights that may be visible
from the beach, including all exterior, structural, decorative, and landscape lighting.

C. Green Building
The following organizations and green building rating systems promote sustainability and green
building practices through education and certification programs:
1. Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED)
Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) is a green building rating system
offered by the U.S Green Building Council that promotes healthy, cost-effective, and energy
efficient buildings. This rating system contemplates economic, health, and environmental
impacts and benefits for a thorough evaluation of the project.
LEED is for all building types and construction phases. Some of the specific rating systems
include Building Design and Construction (BD+C), Interior Design and Construction (ID+C),
Building Operations and Maintenance (O+M), Neighborhood
Development (ND), Homes, Cities and Communities, LEED
Recertification, and LEED Zero. Projects are reviewed for their
approaches to carbon, waste, energy, water, transportation, materials,
health, and indoor air quality. Projects can earn points for
implementing mitigation strategies and completing requirements that
are delineated on the corresponding project checklist for each project
type. LEED certification can be achieved at four levels based upon
point accumulation:
• Certified (40-49 points)
• Silver (50-59 points)
• Gold (60-79 points)
• Platinum (80+ points)
2. Florida Green Building Coalition (FGBC)
Florida Green Building Coalition (FGBC) is nonprofit corporation that promotes sustainable
building and operational practices by means of education and project certifications. FGBC offers
green certification standards for construction projects and local governments. The programs
include the Green Home Certification Standard, Hi -Rise Residential Standard, Commercial
Building Standard, Green Development Standard, and Green Local Government Standard.
CERTIFIED
The FGBC Florida Green High -Rise Residential
Building Standard is applicable for all residential
occupancies above three stories as defined by the Florida
Building Code. The designated professional (applicant)
must earn FBGC accreditation prior to registering a
project, and the final application must be submitted within
five (5) years of registration for eligibility.
The FGBC Florida Green High -Rise Building Standard applies ratings based upon points
achieved over the project's adjusted required minimum point requirement:
• Bronze (0-30 points over the project's adjusted required minimum)
• Silver (31-60 points over the project's adjusted required minimum)
• Gold (61-90 points over the project's adjusted required minimum)
• Platinum (91+ points over the project's adjusted required minimum)
VILLAGE OF FEQUESTA BEACH ROAD CORRIDOR DESIGN GUIDELINES 55
I National Green Building Standard (NGBS)
National Green Building Standard (NGBS) is a rating system for new construction and renovation
of existing homes, buildings, and land developments that encourages high quality design,
operational efficiency, and sustainable resource utilization.
The ICC 700 National Green Building Standard promotes practices for green design and
construction methods. More specifically, the NGBS Green Multifamily & Mixed -Use Building
Certification can be achieved by implementing a minimum number
of green practices into the project. Exceeding the minimum green
practices throughout all stages and phases of the project can earn
an increasingly higher certification, as follows: Bronze, Silver,
Gold, or Emerald. Home Innovation
