January 31,2017 Page 2 The Property is zoned High Density Multifamily (RMF-2) with an underlying land use of Medium to High Density Residential, and multifamily residential building are permitted uses within the district. Although the Property is an irregularly shaped lot, the Proposed Project meets all requirements under the City's Land Development Regulations ("LDRs") including height, FAIR, parking and density, with the exception of setback encroachments and building separation, as described below. The Proposed Project will be developed in three (3) phases, starting with the parking structure to be built in Phase 1 ("Parking Garage"), the Proposed Building on the Northern Parcel to be built in Phase 2 ("North Tower" or "Building 100"), and the Proposed Building on the Southern Parcel to be built in Phase 3 ("Southern Tower" or "Building 200"). See enclosed Logistics and Phasing plans for further details.3, Project Design and Landscape: Each of the Proposed Buildings will have views over the Royal Palm Waterway and the Poinciana Waterway. The Parking Garage will provide parking for each of the Proposed Buildings -- - - and the Existing Building.-The-architectural style is one of timeless elegance that-incorporates_- _ traditional architectural features. Those features include proportional window fenestration articulation, decorative banding and cornice detailing, decorative bronze railings, and stone veneers around columns at key locations on the buildings. While historically the City has been identified with contemporary building styles, the varying barrel tile roofline and traditional architecture creates a dynamic look to the City's unique skyline. While each building is similar in style, each tower will have its own sense of arrival that will distinguish themselves from each other. The two Proposed Buildings will contain an abundant outdoor amenity package consisting of pools, yoga lawns, cabanas, chaise lounges, dog park, outdoor kitchens, trellises, and water features. The prominent overall amenity feature of the Proposed Project is the baywalk. The baywalk will extend the entire length of the project for approximately 1,500 linear feet and provide a pedestrian linkage between each new tower and the Parking Garage. This walkway will also serve as a connection linkage to the Existing Building. The following amenities/elements of the baywalk will enhance the pedestrian experience: light poles, bollard lighting, cable rail barrier system, concrete unit paving, benches, trash receptacles, bike racks, water features, and one (1) bougainvillea trellis sculpture. The overall planting theme is to create a well-balanced natural landscape consisting of all native or very drought tolerant material while providing shade for the pedestrian. By incorporating this approach in the planting, we will reduce the overall watering requirements. At the midpoint of the development, a central pedestrian crossing is provided, which is highlighted by two (2) large • - bougainvillea trellis sculptures. Another point of interest in the landscape is the creation of the southeast garden park. This garden park is highlighted with two (2) signature bougainvillea trellis sculptures and a meandering path to a waterway overlook seating area. The landscaping and outdoor improvements will be an integral part- of the Proposed Project enhancing the overall 3 Note: Applicant is also requesting a temporary construction fence.
