PETITION DESCRIPTION -VAR1-0025 Applicant: Alexandra England, of Jeck & Harris, as authorized agent of owner Owner: David and Amity Swank Request: Variance (VAR) VAR1-0025: Application from David and Amity Swank for a Variance from Code Section 76-20 (a) to permit a 97' dock (70.5' existing) and from Code Section 76-20 (f) to permit an additional 4' of additions to dock terminal intersections (existing maximum 20' of dock terminal intersections in place) in the R-1 Zoning District. Location: 354 Riverside Drive, Tequesta, FL 33469 2. LOCATION MAP JL S- i s Department of Community Development Page 10 of 48 Agenda Item #4. 3. PETITION FACTS Code section 76-20 (a) allows a dock to extend 75 feet from the mean high-water line. The applicant seeks to construct a 97-foot-long dock and is requesting a variance from 76-20 (a) to permit the additional 22 feet of length. An 80-foot-long dock that is an existing legal non- conformity is currently on site. Code section 76-20 is below: Sec. 76-20.— Dock and Pier length, width and configuration. (a) No dock or pier shall be constructed which extends waterward from the mean highwater line in excess of the least of the following distances: (1) Seventy-five feet; (2)Ten percent of the waterway width; or (3)The distance from the point at which the dock or pier intersects the mean highwater line measured in a straight line to the nearest point on the three-foot mean low-water line; provided, however, the foregoing limitations shall not prohibit a dock which does not extend waterward from the mean high-water line in excess of six feet. The applicant is also requesting a variance from 76-20 (f) to permit an additional four feet of length at the terminal platform at the end of the dock. The code only allows platforms to extend twenty feet from the main dock and the applicant is proposing a platform 24 feet in length. • Sec. 76-20.— Dock and Pier length, width and configuration. (f) All sections or areas of any dock or pier which intersect at any angle with the main portion of a dock or pier extending from the shoreline may not exceed a total combined length of 20 feet. 4.

APPLICANT JUSTIFICATION Ali England, of Jeck& Harris, representing the owners of the property located at 354 Riverside Drive, requests variances for dock length and terminal platform length. The applicant states that this request is due to extenuating environmental conditions that have rendered the existing dock, and the previously permitted legal non-conforming dock, unusable. The subject property is situated just north of a drainage canal that supports water runoff from the surrounding landlocked area. The parcel lies in a bay-like section of the North Fork of the Loxahatchee River, this location is more inland compared to adjacent waterfront properties. The applicant states that over recent years, sediment shoaling in the area has impacted the functionality of the existing docks. According to the applicant's coastal engineer, the mean high-water line has moved approximately 5' waterward between July of 2021 and December of 2022, due to sedimentation and shoaling in the vicinity. Per the applicant, the original dock has already become ineffective and despite efforts to reposition the applicant's watercraft to other areas of the current dock, the applicant is unable to avoid the growing shoal. Per the applicant, this request stems from the unique, natural conditions that have not been caused by the applicant's actions. The applicant cites the property's proximity to the drainage canal and the resulting sediment accumulation has led to the degradation of the existing dock Department of Community Development og. 3 Page 12 of 48 Agenda Item #4. infrastructure. The applicant has not altered the land or waterway in any way that would contribute to the problem. Further justification can be found in the application. 6.

Per Section 78-61, the Planning and Zoning Board considers appeals and variances "relating to single-family properties and structures located within the R-1A and R-1 single-family dwelling districts of the village." Section 76-7. (b) provides special requirements for variances sought from code provisions within Section 76 (Waterway Control). Per Section 76-7, to authorize any variance the Planning and Zoning Board must find with respect to the proposed project as follows: (1) The variance being requested meets the definition of the term "variance" as that term is used and understood in chapter 78, zoning. (2) No hazardous condition would be created. (3) The flow of water would not be impeded or interfered with. (4) No obstruction to navigation would occur. (5) It would not interfere with traditional public uses of the waterway including, but not limited to, swimming, fishing, or boating. Department of Community Development Qg. Page 14 of 48 Agenda Item #4. (6) It would not create an appreciable obstruction of waterway views or otherwise detract from aesthetic values. (7) It would not appreciably disrupt, interfere with, or disturb marine or benthic life. (8) It would not contribute to the pollution of the waterway or the degradation of its condition. (9) It would not interfere with the lawful rights of riparian owners. (10) It would be consistent with any other applicable laws, rules or plans. Further, section 78-65 (2) states the Planning and Zoning Board shall: "Authorize upon application in specific cases such variance from the terms of this chapter as will not be contrary to the public interest, where, owing to special conditions, a literal enforcement of the provisions of this chapter will result in unnecessary hardship. The power to grant any such variance shall be limited by and contingent upon a finding by the planning and zoning board or village council that: a. Special conditions and circumstances exist which are peculiar to the land, structure, or building involved and which are not applicable to other lands, structures or buildings in the same zoning district. b. The special conditions and circumstances do not result from the actions of the applicant. c. Granting the variance requested will not confer on the applicant any special privilege that is denied by this chapter to other lands, buildings or structures in the same zoning district. d. Literal interpretation of the provisions of this chapter would deprive the applicant of rights commonly enjoyed by other properties in the same zoning district under the terms of this chapter and would work unnecessary and undue hardship on the applicant. e. The variance granted is the minimum variance that will make possible the reasonable use of the land, building or structure. f. The grant of the variance will be in harmony with the general intent and purpose of this chapter and such variance will not be injurious to the area involved or otherwise detrimental to the public welfare.

SUPPLEMENT TO APPLICATION FOR VARIANCE VILLAGE OF TEQUESTA PLANNING & ZONING BOARD HEARING DATE 3/20/25 Property Owner: David G. Swank and Amity M. Swank, Husband and Wife Property Address: 354 Riverside Drive Owner's Agent: Philippe Jeck, Esquire Alexandra England, Esquire Jeck, Harris,Raynor&Jones, P.A. 790 Juno Ocean Walk, Suite 600 Juno Beach, Florida 33408 Tel: (561) 746-1002 Fax.- (561) 775-0270 Owner's Coastal Engineer: Matthew Butler, D.E., Isiminger & Stubbs Engineering, Inc. Z. Nature of Variance: The Swanks respectfully request a variance from the Planning & Zoning Board ("Board") pursuant to the Tequesta Code of Ordinances ("Code"), Chapter ("Ch.") 76,Article ("Art.") 1, Section ("Sec.") 76-7, from the following provisions: 1. A variance of Ch. 76, Art. 11, Division ("Div.") 1, Section 76-20(a), to permit a 97' proposed dock. 2. A variance up to 4' to the length of the sections of the proposed dock which intersects at any angle with the main portion of the proposed dock extending from the shoreline of Ch. 76, Art. 11.) Div. 1, Sec. 76-20(f). 11. Background: The property is unique in numerous respects: (1) It is located on a bay which causes the property's shoreline to be located farther away from the navigation channel and deep water than neighboring properties. (2)The property is next to (north of) a 60' wide right-of-way on which a drainage canal is located, which benefits numerous properties inland. The canal uniquely provides an extensive privacy buffer from the southern neighbor. Sediment outflow is continuously occurring in the Loxahatchee River at the mouth of the drainage canal, which has resulted in extensive and increasing shoaling in the Swanks' riparian area and at the mouth of the canal. The shoal inhibits the depth of the water around the property, creating navigation, safety, and dock usage concerns, among others. The shoaling is causing continued shoreline accretion, which results in the mean high water line moving waterward. For example, from July 2021 to December 2022, the mean high water line Page 20 of 48 Agenda Item #4. moved approximately 5' waterward, as approximated by the applicants' coastal engineer. See July 295 2021 survey of property compared to Isirninger& Stubbs, Inc.proposed plans. The prior owner was forced to abandon and then remove the boat lift closest to the shoal on the south side of the existing dock because of this worsening condition. The Swanks have further attempted to avoid the shoal by relocating their watercraft to a different area of the existing dock to try to access deeper water in order to safely utilize their watercraft without darnaging it and endangering its passengers. However, these mitigation efforts have been unsuccessful. The shoaling (which is progressing)requires that the existing dock be extended into deeper water for the Swank family to avoid the effects of shoaling and to safely utilize their dock and watercraft. (3) The property's riparian area has some established seagrass beds near shore that can be better protected by the existing dock being extended further from the shoreline. The requested variances for the proposed environmentally friendly dock create public benefit, as the dock was professionally designed with safety and sea grass protection as the leading factors. The proposed environmentally friendly dock has already been approved by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection. (4)The property is located at a very wide part of the river with a very wide area of navigable deep water.The-proposed dock length has no adverse effect on the public or navigation. (5) Currently, two existing docks are on the property, both of which were located on the property when the Swanks purchased it in 2021. The smaller existing dock is a grandfathered, nonconforming structure. The variances will allow the smaller dock to be removed in its entirety, resulting in the public benefit of an overall reduction in nonconformities of the property. 111. Justification for Variance; A. The need for the variances is addressed in each of the ten criteria for granting a variance from the terms of the Waterway Control Chapter (Ch. 76) of the Tequesta Code, as set forth in Ch. 76, Art. 1, See. 76-7. 1. The variance being requested meets the definition of the term "variance" as that term is used and understood in Chapter 78,zoning. As set forth in Ch. 78,Art. 1, See. 78- 41"variance" means "a variation from the district requirements of this chapter which is granted by the planning and zoning board or the village council, as applicable, where such variance will not be contrary to the public interest and where, owing to conditions peculiar to the physical characteristics of that particular property and not the result of the actions of the owner, agent, or applicant, a literal enforcement of this chapter would result in unnecessary and undue hardship." The requested variances meet this definition. 1.1 The variances are not contra[y to public interest. The proposed variances are consistent with the general intent of the Tequesta Code and are not injurious or detrimental to anyone. In fact, the variances increase safety for the property owners, the neighbors, the environment, and the community. A longer proposed dock increases the distance between the boating activity and the shoaling,which allows the property owner to utilize the proposed dock, boat lift, and watercrafts in deeper water, thereby increasing 2 Page 21 of 48 Agenda Item #4. safety. Additionally, due to the shoaling, at low tide, a sand bar is revealed adjacent to the property, which is attractive to kayakers, paddleboarders, and other members of the community. Extending the dock further into the water reduces the conflict zone that is created between boating activity and individuals at the sand bar. This increases safety for the entire community. The existing boat lift is relocated at the end of the proposed dock to minimize the variance requested,because otherwise,a longer dock may be needed to reach a safe depth. Further, the length of the terminal platform allows the north boat lift to be moved away from the north neighbor, lessening the impact of boating activity on the north neighbor. The length of the terminal platform also provides boat users access to the stern of the boat located on the landward boat lift. Boarding a boat close to the cockpit or stern area, as opposed to the bow, will provide safe access to those individuals using the boat. The proposed environmentally friendly dock also promotes seagrass health and growth, and better protects existing shallow seagrass beds than the existing dock. Because of the shoaling, the water depth around the existing boat slips and terminal platform has been reduced, and the boating activity has become increasingly closer to the seagrass. This increases the risk of prop dredging and prop scarring, both of which negatively impact the underlying seagrass. Currently, the distance from the terminal platform where boating activity occurs to the near-shore seagrass beds is approximately 5'. Under the proposed plan, the distance from the terminal platform where boating activity would occur to the near-shore seagrass is approximately 40'. The proposed environmentally friendly dock moves boating activity away from the near-shore seagrass beds by approximately 35', thereby reducing the risk of damage to the seagrass. Further, the near-shore seagrass is being shaded by the existing dock and boat lift. The proposed environmentally friendly dock increases sunlight exposure to the near-shore seagrass, promoting its health and growth. The seagrass bed further offshore will not be impacted by the proposed environmentally friendly dock because the boating activity will occur at least 45' from the seagrass bed. Additionally, because of the depth of the offshore seagrass, the proposed environmentally friendly dock will not increase its shade cover and will not increase the risk of damage due to prop dredging or prop scarring. The proposed plan also removes the existing grandfathered nonconforming second dock in its entirety, and reduces the total square footage of boardwalk on the property by 204 sq. ft. This in an overall improvernent to the property and neighborhood, and increases harmony and conformity with the Tequesta Code for the public benefit, given the reduction of overall dock square footage. The property is suffering at the benefit of many other properties inland, which are supported by the drainage canal. 1.2 The variances are required because of the peculiar physical characteristics of the prope L-ty.The multiple peculiar physical characteristics of the property are described in the Background section above. 3 Page 22 of 48 Agenda Item #4. 1.3 The peculiaE_phvsical characteristics of the property are not the result of an action by the Swanks. As set forth throughout this application, the characteristics are not caused by any action by the Swanks. 1.4 Literal enforcement of the Ch. 76 of the Code would result in unnecessar and undue hardship to the Swanks. If the Swanks are unable to lengthen their existing dock to access deeper water for safe boating activity, they will be unable to safely utilize their existing dock, boat lift, and watercraft, and in fact,just as with the second existing dock on the property, may end up with a completely unusable dock. The shoaling is continuously increasing, and the Swanks already face difficulty moving their boat into the water, given the decreased depths. The rate of shoaling has the potential to increase at any time, and the existing dock could be rendered entirely unusable overnight if the depth of the water were to drastically decrease. In fact, in the short time of 18 months,from July 2021 to December 2022, the property's shoreline experienced accretion, which resulted in the mean high water line moving waterward by approximately 5'.The inability to utilize the existing dock and boat lift on the property because the water is too shallow will also negatively impact the value of the waterfront property. The Swanks will be denied a right commonly enjoyed by other waterfront property owners in the Village without the variances. 2. No hazardous condition would be created. Because of the property's unique location on the bay, the proposed environmentally friendly dock does not extend as far into the waterway as the existing neighboring docks. The proposed dock is approximately 47' behind the line connecting the neighbors' docks, making it less intrusive to the Loxahatchee River navigation routes than existing, conforming, neighboring docks. See enclosed Aerial Exhibit. The proposed dock also moves the north boat lift away from the north neighbor and tucks it into the "L," lessening the impacts of boating activity to the north neighbor as set forth in Response to Number I above. As noted above, conflicts with in-shore sea grasses,the sand bar, and shallow water depth are all being minimized with the proposed variances. The variances will in fact reduce hazardous conditions that currently exist. 3. The flow of water would not be impeded or interfered with. No flow of water would be impeded or interfered with, particularly because the proposed environmentally friendly dock extends less into the navigable waterway than the neighboring docks,as set forth in Response to Number 2 above. Additionally, the proposed environmentally friendly dock provides a bigger buffer between the mouth of the drainage canal and the proposed dock, allowing better flow of water from the drainage canal. Further, the proposed dock is a piling supported structure, and therefore,there are no impacts on the flow of water. 4. No obstruction to navigation would occur. No obstruction to navigation of the waterway would occur. See Responses to Numbers 2 and 3 above. The variances will in fact improve navigation of both the northern neighbor's and the Swanks' boats over the conditions that currently exist. Additionally, the proposed dock already received approval from the Department of Environmental Protection, indicating that the proposed environmentally friendly dock is sufficient distance from the channel to avoid any obstruction to navigation or hazardous conditions. 4 Page 23 of 48 Agenda Item #4. 5. It would not interfere with traditional public uses of the waterway including, but not limited to,swimming, fishing, or boating. The proposed environmentally friendly dock will not interfere with public swimming, fishing, or boating. See Responses to Numbers 1, 2 and 3 above. The variances will in fact improve the public's use of the area by enhancing the river's health. Additionally, the Department of Environmental Protection's approval of the proposed environmentally friendly dock evidences the fact that it will not interfere with traditional public uses of the waterway, since the Department of Environmental Protection considers potential impacts such as this during the review process. 6. It would not create an appreciable obstruction of waterway views or otherwise detract from aesthetic values. The proposed environmentally friendly dock will not obstruct views or detract from aesthetic values. The variances will in fact improve waterway views of neighbors and aesthetics as noted elsewhere in this application.As set forth in Response to Number 2 above, the proposed dock does not extend as far into the navigable water as some neighboring docks. Additionally, the proposed environmentally friendly dock is only 488 sq. ft, making it smaller than many of the neighboring docks which are larger (more sq. ft.): Addresses Approximate Sq.._Ft. of Dock 358 Riverside Dr. 565 sq. ft. 362 Riverside Dr. 513 sq. ft. 366 Riverside Dr. 513 sq. ft. 370 Riverside Dr. 638 sq. ft. 7. It would not appreciably disrupt, interfere with, or disturb marine or benthic life. The proposed environmentally friendly dock will better protect existing seagrass beds and reduce water turbidity than the existing dock, as set forth in Section 1.1 above. 8. It would not contribute to the pollution of the waterway or the degradation of its condition. The proposed environmentally friendly dock would not contribute to pollution of the waterway or degradation of its condition. For all the reasons set forth above in Responses to Numbers 1-7, the proposed environmentally friendly dock will have positive effects on the seagrass beds, function of the drainage canal, and water turbidity, and does not include any attributes that would increase water pollution or the degradation of its condition. 9. It would not interfere with the lawful rights of riparian owners. The proposed environmentally friendly dock would not interfere with the lawful rights of riparian owners, as set forth above in Responses to Numbers 1, 2, 5, 6, and 7. In fact, the proposed dock enhances the other neighbors' riparian rights by moving boat traffic away from thee.. 10. It would be consistent with any other applicable laws, rules or plans. As set forth above in Response to Number 1, the proposed plans remove the existing, grandfathered, nonconforming second dock in its entirety,resulting in an overall improvement to the property and neighborhood and increased conformity with the Tequesta Code. The proposed dock already received a DEP Permit No. 50-427705-003-EE, which ensures compliance with State and Federal requirements. Further,the proposed terminal platform on the environmentally friendly dock is 120 sq. ft.,the same size that is allowable under the Code. (i.e., 20' long x 6' wide). For safety reasons, 5 Page 24 of 48 Agenda Item #4. the owners have given up allowable width for additional length, in order to ensure safe access to the boat when boarding, as set forth in Response to Number I above. Moreover, the terminal platform of at least one U-ni-nediately neighboring dock is approximately 2' longer and 2' wider than the proposed terminal platform: Addresses Approximate Dimensions of Terminal Platform 358 Riverside Dr. 25.7'x6.9' Also, as set forth in Response to Number 6 above, the proposed environmentally friendly dock is smaller (less sq. ft.)than at least 4 of the neighboring docks. B. The need for the variances is further addressed in each of the six criteria for granting a variance generally, in Ch. 78, Art. 111, Sec.78-65(a)(2). 1. Special conditions and circumstances exist which are peculiar to the land, structure, or building involved and which are not applicable to other lands, structures or buildings in the same zoning district. See Response to Number I set forth above. 2. The special conditions and circumstances do not result from the actions of the Swanks. See Response to Number I set forth above. 3. Granting the variance requested will not confer on the applicant any special privilege that is denied by this chapter to other lands, buildings or structures in the same zoning district. See Responses to Numbers 2, 6, and 10 set forth above. The variances will in fact allow the Swanks to avail themselves of the rights that others in the zoning district have to a usable and safe dock, and otherwise to enjoy their riparian rights as do their neighbors. The depth at which the environmentally friendly dock will extend is consistent with the neighboring docks, as revealed by a prior survey: Addresses Depth at Mean Low Water at Terminal Platform 358 Riverside Dr. 3.01 —4ff 362 Riverside Dr. 3.5' —4ff 366 Riverside Dr. 3.5' 4.0s Additionally, many neighboring docks (the four to the north and four to the south) have terminal platforms that are the same size (sq. ft.) or bigger than the proposed,which is only 120 sq. ft.: Addresses Approximate Size of Neighboring Terminal Platforms 358 Riverside Dr. Terminal Platform=25.7'x6.9' — 177 sq. ft. 362 Riverside Dr. Terminal Platform=20.0'x6.4' — 128 sq. ft. 366 Riverside Dr. Terminal Platform=20.7'x7.3' — 151 sq. ft. 370 Riverside Dr. Terminal Platform=2 1.0'x 12.V —254 sq. ft. 320 W Riverside Dr. Terminal Platform= 14.0'xi 1.0' — 154 sq. ft. 318 W Riverside Dr. Terminal Platform= 17.2'xlO.O' — 172 sq. ft. 316 W Riverside Dr. Terminal Platform=23.4'x8.5' — 199 sq. ft. 314 W Riverside Dr. Terminal Platform=21.0'x8.7' — 183 sq. ft. 6 Page 25 of 48 Agenda Item #4. Moreover, the proposed environmentally friendly dock did not require a special permit from the Army Corps of Engineers to be approved. The proposed design fell within the State Programmatic General Permit Vl-R1. 4. Literal interpretation of the provisions of this chapter would deprive the applicant of rights commonly enjoyed by other properties in the same zoning district under the terms of this chapter and would work unnecessary and undue hardship on the applicant. See Response to Number I set forth above. 5. The variance granted is the minimum variance that will make possible the reasonable use of the land, building or structure. The requested variances would permit the construction of the proposed environmentally friendly dock which extends into the waterway only as far as the applicant and coastal engineer advisor believe it is necessary to avoid the continued shoaling and permit the safest use of the dock. This extension into the waterway is consistent with the neighbors' extensions into the navigable waterway and is in fact less intrusive to the Loxa-hatchee River than existing, conforming, neighboring docks as set forth in Response to Number 2 above. Further, as set forth in Responses to Numbers I and 10 above, the proposed terminal platform on the environmentally friendly dock is the minimum length that would permit safe access to the boat and is the sarne size (sq. ft.)that is allowable under the Code. (i.e.,20' long x 6' wide). The proposed boat lift has been designed to be on the terminal platform to reduce the need to lengthen the dock more to reach usable depths and better protect the shallow seagrass beds. This is to the detriment of the Swanks as their view of the river is more impaired by the perpendicular to the dock broadside profile of the boat, instead of a head on parallel to the dock profi le. 6. The grant of the variances will be in harmony with the general intent and purpose of the Tequesta Code and will not be injurious to the area involved or otherwise detrimental to the public welfare. The proposed variances are consistent with the general intent of the Tequesta Code and are not injurious or detrimental to anyone. The variances allow for a safe, environmentally friendly dock to be built on the property,which permits safe dock usage and boating activity by the Swanks and all other future owners of the property. Multiple public benefits arise out of the granting of the variances as noted above. See Response to Number I above. Note: Certain of the above discussions have application to more than one of the variance factors, but have been placed under one factor to avoid duplication. For the purpose of this application, all discussions are deemed to apply to all factors. 7 Page 26 of 48 Agen U- C1 I LWI I I Iff+- X 61--fC 7 C4 rV W 15 Zvi tx a LA -xg-61, 0 Can 'MP Liu ��� f EO In �dq 2) CA LL rr 0 Ui =3 M ip P d 0 Uj > T5 U 0 W tX0 P*% 0 CL cri L.L C) LU x fi L) x z il!
