Vera, Assistant City Manager / Service Division DATE: 10/15/2009 RE: Modification of setback requirements to the Town Center RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends adoption of the attached ordinance modifying sections of the Town Center regulations for inconsistencies. REASONS: In reviewing the Town Center Code, staff noticed some inconsistencies that needed to be addressed. When going over some of the charts which delineate the height of a building, we noticed that the pedestal height referenced the number of stories but no reference was made as to the maximum height in feet. Also we addressed the setback issue that has been approved at prior hearings regarding the penthouse portion. It was determined at those hearings that having to provide the setback for the penthouse made that almost unusable, therefore variances were granted. This modification would provide the design flexibility that the code was not giving. Overall the modifications will not create a detriment to any adjoining property and will in fact ensure consistency in building development. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: In the future, staff will be reviewing all different areas of the Land Development Regulations to address inconsistencies in building development and will be bringing them before the City Commission for their consideration.
