Ladd, Building Official Joanne McCabe, Plans Examin Date: October 3, 1996 Subject: Ordinance No. 377 Landscape Waiver Request Community Appearance Board Project Recommendation PROJECT: Whitehall 478 Tequesta Drive Parker-Yannette Design Group, Landscape Architects Tom, attached are 18 packets and plans for the above subject project which was reviewed by the Community Appearance Board on September 11, 1996 The Board reviewed the requested waivers and expressed the following concerns with the application: O The Board discussed adding trees in the right-of-way on the west property line to which a representative of Whitehall responded that it would make it difficult to maintain the existing 7 foot hedge since it was done from a truck. O The Board discussed the lack of islands in the parking lot and were advised that there were only 1.5 parking spaces per unit instead of the required 2 spaces and, therefore, they could not afford to lose any parking by providing landscape islands. O The Board discussed proposed terminal island plantings and were advised that the proposed plantings being added to create beds would spill out into the right-of-way and that anything that is planted would need to be low so as not to block visibility. Motion to approve the proposed landscaping and waivers as submitted. Vote on the motion: 5-0 to approve Additional Comments: NONE ,q„ 4 i COMMUNITY APPEARANCE BOARD REVIEW C--4,q's jg.

As you are aware, this project must be reviewed by the Village Council for approval of the requested landscape waivers. Upon receipt of 11 additional copies of the plan (10 full size and one 11" X 17" reduction), this will be placed on the agenda of the next available Council meeting. You and,or your representative will need to be in attendance at this meeting to present your application to the Council. Very truly yours, Scott D. Ladd. Clerk of the Board JMc cc: Peggy Gallo Whitehall 478 Tequesta Drive Tequesta, FL 33469 Recycled Paper Community Appearance Board Meeting Minutes September 11, 1996 Page 4 • with little gain. Additional landscaping with the exception of materials which had already been purchased would be native plants. The plants already purchased for beautification would all be installed. Mr. Niedergeses explained that although the proposal did not exactly meet Code, that the applicant felt they had met the spirit of Ordinance 377 . Vice Chair Strahan commented that this was a nice development with a nice mixture of well- maintained plants, and although not exactly in compliance, they had made an effort. Vice Chair Strahan made a motion to accept the project as presented. Boardmember McCormick seconded the motion. The vote on the motion was: Leslie Cook - for Vic Strahan - for Claudette Dalack - for Stephen Parker - for Mollie McCormick - for The motion was therefore passed and adopted. 110111140 3. An application from Parker-Yannette 'Design Group, as agent, for review of landscape plans for Ordinance #377 compliance for Whitehall Condo, 478 Tequesta Drive. • Boardmember Stephen Parker recused himself and was replaced by Alternate Marcia Nielson, who sat as a Boardmember during presentation of both applications presented by representatives of Parker-Yannette Design Group. Stephen Parker, Landscape Architect with Parker=Yannette Design Group, announced that a representative from Whitehall Condominium was present at the meeting. Mr. Parker reviewed the requested landscape waivers: NORTH PROPERTY LINE 1 . 10' Buffer required, 4 ' provided. 2. 13 trees required, 9 palms provided (additionally, Community Appearance Board Meeting Minutes September 11 , 1996 Page 5 4 Oak trees, 3 Royal Palms, 6 Bottlebrush, 2 Cabbage Palms and 1 Seagrape provided in right- of- way) . WEST PROPERTY LINE 3 . 10' Buffer required, 4 ' provided. 4 . 10 trees required, 2 palms provided (additionally, 1 Cabbage Palm provided in right-of-way. SOUTH PROPERTY LINE 5 . 5' buffer required, 2 ' provided. 6. 2 trees required, no trees provided (1 Cabbage Palm is on the adjacent property) PARKING AREA 7 . 3 landscape islands and 3 trees required, 0 provided. 8 . 1 landscape island and 1 tree required, 0 provided. Mr . Parker explained that an existing power line right over the west property line prohibited planting trees which would grow to interfere with the power line, and that plantings had been added to offset this situation. Mr. Parker commented that this development only had 1-1/2 parking spaces per dwelling unit instead of the usual 2 per dwelling unit, so that they could not afford to lose any parking. Chair Cook suggested adding trees in the right-of-way on the west property line. Discussion ensued regarding the appropriateness of planting within the right-of-way. Mr . Ladd explained that others had added trees in the right-of-way, and that the Village had requested that Tequesta Country Club plant in the right-of-way in order to slow traffic. Mr. Ladd commented that Director of Public Works Gary Preston controlled where such plants would go since roadway requirements must be met . Chair Cook suggested the possible addition of either bottle brush or ligustrum along Point Drive to match other areas. The representative from Whitehall commented that • • Community Appearance Board Meeting Minutes September 11, 1996 Page 6 adding trees would make maintenance of the 7-foot ficus hedge harder because it was done from a truck. After further discussion, Vice Chair Strahan suggested a shrub bed instead of trees, to be located away from the hedge. During discussion of the missing landscape islands every 10 parking spaces, it was pointed out that this' development could not afford to lose any parking, and upon suggestion of possible additional plantings, the representative present explained that they already had so much landscaping that they would like to add the least amount required and keep it low on the terminal islands so that visibility would not be blocked. Mr. Parker explained that proposed terminal island plantings being added to create beds would spill out into the right-off- way. Vice Chair Strahan commented that the parking was screened by a substantial hedge. • Mr. Ladd requested the total percentage of native plants, which Mr. Parker agreed to provide. Mr. Parker explained that of the plants which would be added the percentage of native was 87%. Mr. Parker reported that the applicant had removed all exotics from their property. Boardmember Nielson made a motion to accept the project as presented. Boardmember McCormick seconded the motion.
