Public Comment 6. Board Discussion/Decision STAFF PRESENTATION: Tahir Curry, Associate Planner, SLC made a presentation. Petition of James & Jamie Wynne, for a variance from the provisions of St. Lucie County Land Development Code Section 7.04.01 Lot Size and Dimensional Requirements, within the RS-4 (Residential, Single-Family-4 du/ac) Zoning District, to permit a pool to encroach 2.5 feet into the required 15-foot rear yard setback, providing a total rear setback of 12.5 feet from the rear property line. He went over Public Notice, Aerial, Zoning District, Survey, and Mail Notice Response.The variance sought does not arise from conditions that are unique and peculiar to the property. The variance does not qualify as a hardship as defined in the St. Lucie County Land Development Code. Staff has reviewed this petition and determined it does not conform to a strict interpretation of the standards of review as set forth in St. Lucie County's Land Development Code Section 10.01.02. Staff is recommending denial of the requested variance. BOARD DISCUSSION: Chair Lowe inquired about responses in favor. Mr. Curry responded that there were three responses in favor, including one received today by his neighbor Ken Walker, 138 Parliament Circle. Mr. Griffin inquired about inspection of the site. Mrs. Pendarvis responded that no staff members had been to the site. APPLICANT PRESENTATION: James (Bud) and Jaime Wynne, 17 Majestic Way. Stated that the engineer revealed to them that the pool would be encroaching on the setbacks. Others in the neighborhood have had this variance as well and it has not been an issue. BOARD DISCUSSION: Mr. Griffin inquired if they planned on including a screened enclosure as they would have to return to the board to add it. Chair Lowe also recommended it. The 2 1 P, : Page 5 of 107 Board of Adjustment Wednesday, August 25, 2021 9:30 AM applicant does not plan on doing that at this time. Chair Lowe inquired about the location of the septic tank and the applicant responded that it is in the front yard. Mr. Mencer inquired about staff recommendation for denial. Ms. Pendarivis responded that, as per the strict interpretation of the Land Development Code, it is not a true hardship. Mr Mencer also inquired about the reason for the location of the pool and slab. The applicant responded that the contractor stated there was no other location that would work. PUBLIC COMMENT: None BOARD MOTION: After considering the testimony presented during the public hearing, including staff comments, and the standards of review as set forth in section 10.01.02 of the St. Lucie County Land Development Code, I hereby move that the Board of Adjustment approve the petition of James & Jamie Wynne, for a variance from the provisions of section 7.04.01 (table 7-10) - lot size and dimensional requirements of the St. Lucie County Land Development Code to allow a pool to encroach 2.5 feet into the required minimum 15-foot rear yard setback, providing a 12.5 foot rear yard setback, within the RS-4 (residential, single-family-4 du/ac) zoning district, because the applicant is stuck on the seawall and there isn't a lot of room for them to move the pool and no opposition from the neighbors.

Palm City, FL 34990 4425-605-0017-000-6 0.37-acres RE (Residential, Estate) PUD (Planned Unit Development) PURPOSE: The purpose of this Variance is to allow a patio deck and screen enclosure to encroach into the required 20-foot rear yard setback by no more than 3.38-feet, providing a 16.62-foot rear yard setback. EXISTING USE: Single -Family Residence UTILITIES: Private Sewer Treatment Facility Private Water Treatment Facility ROADWAY IMPROVEMENTS: None Page 10 of 107 Board of Adjustment Crandall Variance (BA-6202126081) SURROUNDING ZONING: To the north: PUD (Planned Unit Development) To the south: PUD (Planned Unit Development) To the east: PUD (Planned Unit Development) To the west: PUD (Planned Unit Development) BACKGROUND: The subject property is located within the Harbour Ridge, Royal Fern Village (also known as Plat No. 6) Subdivision, at 2006 NW Royal Fern Court, which was platted in 1986 (OR Book 25 Page 40-40E). The property is zoned PUD (Planned Unit Development), and has a RE (Residential, Estate) Future Use Designation. The parcel contains a 3,051 square -foot single family home constructed in 1987 and a pool with a screen enclosure. The petitioner, Roger Crandall is requesting a Variance from the minimum building setback requirements as noted in the Harbour Ridge, Royal Fern Village PUD (Planned Unit Development) Site Plan for a patio deck and screen enclosure to encroach into the required 20-foot minimum rear yard setback. The applicant is proposing to reconfigure the existing screened pool enclosure to encompass the proposed patio deck expansion. The applicant's project narrative requests a 5-foot encroachment; however, established by the certified survey prepared by Jim Cesiro, PSM, the project improvements denote an encroachment of 3.38- feet, providing for a 16.62-foot rear yard setback. Accordingly, staff s review is founded on the measurements denoted on the certified survey. The following table provides the minimum dimensional requirements for structures in the Harbour Ridge, Royal Fern Village PUD Zoning District along with existing site conditions. Harbour Ridge, Royal Fern Village Minimum Dimensional Requirements Tye Required Proposed Minimum Front Yard Setback 25 feet 28.89 feet(existing) Minimum Rear Yard Setback 20 feet 16.62 feet (proposed) Minimum Side Yard (Between Units) 30 feet (15' for each unit) 16.53 feet (existing - right) 2 1. 10 feet (existing - left) Exhibit 1: Boundary Survey 1m.0 Cfac 1, M BRNG'blrt o,k M6111f, Vox 0�!l oW fit. Hy'.tt Ole Ctle Pod ef @+.O l !0 Board of Adjustment Crandall Variance (BA-6202126081) ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW: Background: The Environmental Resources Department (ERD) is in receipt of the June 28th, 2021, date -stamped submittal from Planning and Development Services (PDS). The applicant is seeking approval of a Variance to allow for the expansion of the pool patio area and associated screen enclosure to lie approximately 15-ft off the rear property line. The project is located at 2006 NW Royal Fern Court, and currently consists of one (1) single family residence on a 0.37-acre lot (Parcel ID 4425-605-0017-000-6) zoned Planned Unit Development (PUD). Findings: The proposed Variance is not anticipated to result in any adverse environmental impacts as the lot is already developed and the proposed expansion is modest in size. Recommendation: ERD has no objection to the approval of the referenced Variance. In reviewing this application for a Variance from the St. Lucie County Land Development Code, the Board of Adjustment shall consider and make the following determinations: The Variance requested arises from conditions that are unique and peculiar to the land, structures, and buildings involved; that the particular physical surroundings, the shape, or topographical condition of the specific property involved would result in unnecessary hardship for the owner, lessee, or occupant, as distinguished from a mere inconvenience, if the Provisions of Chapter 7 are literally enforced; that they are conditions that are not ordinarily found in the same Zoning District, and the conditions are created by the regulations of Chapter 7, of this Code, and not by an action or actions of the property owner or the applicant. The submitted survey reflects the owner's request for a proposed patio deck with an associated screen enclosure to encroach 3.38 feet into the rear setback, providing an overall setback of 16.62 feet. The Variance for the patio deck and screen enclosure does not arise from conditions that are unique and peculiar from the land and physical surroundings that would result in unnecessary hardship for the owner. The lot is not irregularly shaped and is similar in shape and size to the adjacent properties. It is the desire or actions of the property owner to expand the existing pool deck and screen enclosure to encompass an additional 5-feet by 49.77-feet surrounding the existing swimming pool. The St. Lucie County Land Development Code (LDC) and Florida Building Code do not require a minimum amount of deck space adjacent to a pool. There are no minimum setbacks for pool decks provided they are constructed at grade and are not located in any easement. There are no easements located along the rear of the subject property. Swimming pool setbacks are measured from the pool water's edge when an enclosure is not provided. The applicant can potentially construct the +i-249 sf pool deck expansion, at grade by removing the screen enclosure from the redesign, to meet the 20- foot rear yard setback requirement. Page 3 Page 12 of 107 Board of Adjustment Crandall Variance (BA-6202126081) It should be noted that the swimming pool is required to be secured by an enclosure or a minimum 4- foot-high fence for safety purposes as per LDC Section 8.00.05 — Swimming Pools. A fence in lieu of an enclosure is an option for the owner to construct the additional deck space adjacent to the rear property line. 2. The granting of the Variance will not impair or injure other property or improvements in the neighborhood in which the subject property is located, nor impair an adequate supply of light or air to adjacent property, substantially increase the congestion in the public streets, increase the danger of fire, create a hazard to air navigation, endanger the public safety, or substantially diminish or impair property values within the neighborhood. The requested Variance is not anticipated to harm other property or improvements in the neighborhood, impair adequate supply of light or air to adjacent properties or streets, increase the danger of fire, or endanger public safety The Harbour Ridge Property Owners Association does not have any objection to the encroachment. The adjacent properties are of similar size and zoning, with existing single-family residences to the south, east, and west. The subject property backs up to a waterway on the community's golf course; therefore, the screen enclosure is not projecting toward any other residential property. The Variance requested is the minimum Variance that will make possible the reasonable use of the land, building, or structures. The Variance is for an accessory use/structure. The requested Variance is not the minimum needed to make possible the reasonable use of land and structures. It is the actions of the property owner to install these improvements in a manner that do not comply with the minimum rear setback requirements. Pool setbacks are measured from the pool water's edge when an enclosure is not provided. The applicant can still accomplish the requested patio expansion by omitting the screen enclosure. 4. The Variance desired will not be opposed to the general spirit and intent of this Code or the St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan. The requested variance is not consistent with the intent of the St. Lucie County Land Development Code. The intent of the Variance provisions is to provide a mechanism when, owing to special conditions, the literal enforcement would impose an unnecessary hardship that can be mitigated without conferring on the applicant any special privilege. The Variance sought arises from a condition that is not unique and peculiar to the property involved. RECOMMENDATION: The Variance sought does not arise from conditions that are unique and peculiar to the property. The Variance does not qualify as a hardship as defined in the St. Lucie County Land Development Code. Staff has reviewed this petition and determined it does not conform to a strict interpretation of the standards of review as set forth in St. Lucie County's Land Development Code Section 10.01.02. Staff is therefore recommending denial of the requested Variance.

(State the variance sought and the section from the LDC from which the variance is requested.) The Applicant is requesting a five-foot (5) setback variance to the rear setback requirement under the Harbour Ridge Planned Unit Development ("PUD") in order to permit the expansion of the pool deck. What is the purpose of the proposed variance and the intended development of the subject property if the variance is granted: The purpose of the variance is to allow for the expansion of a portion of a patio area at the rear of the existing swimming pool. As presently constructed, there is no room in this portion of the patio to walk or otherwise safely transverse the area. By granting the requested variance this portion of the patio can be enjoyed by the Applicant, as well as his guests and invitees, and multiple, young grandchildren visiting the property. A photo of the rear patio is included with this application. State the specific hardship imposed on the owner by the LDC? The PUD restricts the full enjoyment of the property and limits the rear setback in such a manner that prohibits the ability to construct a usable patio area around the entire pool. Because the existing residence was constructed prior to the Applicant's ownership, the PUD setback requirements restrict his ability to expand the patio as requested herein. The PUD rear setback requirements are greater than those that would be found in the standard St. Lucie County zoning district for comparable properties. By granting the variance the rear patio area can be expanded to allow for the safe use of that portion of the patio. 4 State reasons why this hardship is unique to the owner and why other property similarly situated does not suffer from the same hardship. This hardship was not due to the actions of the Applicant. The existing residence was constructed in or about 1987. The Applicant acquired the property in 2011. Due to the location and configuration of the dwelling unit and existing pool and patio area, there is no room within the setbacks to the use of the patio area behind the pool, creating a potential safety issue. Page 20 of 107 Supplement 2 The subject property is approximately 16,028 square feet in size, which size would be comparable to residential lots in the RS-2 (Residential Single- Family— 2) zoning district (requiring minimum lot size of 15,000 square feet). The rear setback for the RS-2 zoning district is 15 feet. If the subject property had a 15-foot rear setback, the requested variance would not be necessary. Similarly situated properties in the RS-2 zoning district do not suffer the same hardship as the Applicant or the subject property. The Applicant's parents currently occupy the property and the desire to obtain the variance and expand the rear portion of the patio is in order to enjoy the full patio and also for the safety of the occupants, invitees and other users of the property and pool area, including multiple, young grandchildren. State reasons why this variance will not be injurious to other property and/or 5' improvements in the neighborhood in which the subject property is located. No other property or improvements in the neighborhood will be injured or otherwise affected by the granting of the variance. The requested variance is a minimal variance necessary to permit the expansion of an existing patio area. Similar variance requests have been granted to other property owners within the Harbour Ridge PUD development. Copies of some of the prior Board of Adjustments variances granted to other properties within the Harbour Ridge PUD development are enclosed with this application. The Harbour Ridge homeowners' association has reviewed and approved the Applicant's request. A copy of that approval is included with this application. State reasons why this variance will not increase traffic, the danger of fire, or impair property values in the neighborhood in which the subject property is located. The requested variance will not increase traffic or the danger of fire as it will not affect the existing dwelling unit or occupancy therein. The proposed variance would not impair property values in the neighborhood in which the subject property is located. To the contrary, the proposed variance would be anticipated to actually increase the property values in the neighborhood. The variance requested is similar to other variances granted to properties within the Harbour Ridge PUD. Granting the requested variance would be consistent with those prior approvals, it would enhance the subject property and, as a result, likely increase values of surrounding properties within the development. Page 21 of 107 Supplement 2 State why this variance is the minimum variance that will make possible a �' reasonable use of the land, building and structures. The requested variance is the minimum variance necessary in order to safely enjoy the use of the rear portion of the patio behind the pool. The five-foot (5) variance would allow that portion of the patio to be expanded in order to allow for this area to be safely walked on and used by the Applicant, his parents, as well as other guests, including young grandchildren visiting the property. Explain how this proposed variance is consistent with the general spirit of the LDC $' and the St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan. The requested variance is consistent with the general spirit of the LDC and the St, Lucie County Comprehensive Plan in that it allows for the use of the subject property, without negatively impacted adjacent properties or the neighborhood and development as a whole. Reducing the rear setback by five feet (5) as requested herein would permit the full enjoyment of the residential dwelling unit and accessory improvements existing on the subject property. As previously mentioned, similar variances have been granted by the Board of Adjustments for other properties in the Harbour Ridge PUD development. Is this variance request located within a Homeowners or Property Owners 9. Association? YES x NO If yes, then letter is required • For any variance request within an area that has a Homeowners or Property Owners Association, a letter from that Association is required stating their position regarding the variance request SEE LETTER ENCLOSED. 10 Name of Association Harbor Ridge Homeowners' Association, Inc. 11 Is there a letter from that association attached?

McGee, Environmental Regulations Manager Amy E. Griffin, Environmental Resources Director FROM: Brian J. Arbeiter, Environmental Planner DATE: July 1211, 2021 SUBJECT: Crandall -Setback Variance BA-6202126081 Background The Environmental Resources Department (ERD) is in receipt of the June 28th, 2021 date -stamped submittal from Planning and Development Services. The applicant is seeking approval of a variance to allow for the expansion of the pool patio area to lie approximately 15-ft off the rear property line. The project is located at 2006 NW Royal Fern Court, in Port St. Lucie and currently consists of one (1) single family residence on a 0.37-acre lot (Parcel 1D 4425-605-0017-000-6) zoned Planned Unit Development (PUD). Findin The proposed variance is not anticipated to result in any adverse environmental impacts as the lot is already developed and the proposed expansion is modest in size. Recommendation ERD has no objection to the approval of the referenced variance. Please contact Brian Arbeiter at 772-462-2866 if you have any questions. 111111111 ��lllllllllllllllltllllllic w t Page 61 of 107 AGENDA REQUEST TO: Board of Adjustment PRESENTED BY: Bethany Grubbs, Planner SUBMITTED BY: Planning & Development Services SUBJECT: McNeill Pool Variance (Quasi -Judicial Item -Board Disclosures) 1.

(ID # 2021-52403) DATE: 9/22/2021 RES NO: BOA-2021-013 The request of Dina McNeill for a Variance from the provisions of Section 7.04.01 (Table 7-10) Lot Size and Dimensional Requirements of the St. Lucie County Land Development Code, to allow a swimming pool to encroach into the required 15-foot rear yard setback by no more than 5-feet, providing a 10-foot rear yard setback, within the RS-4 (Residential, Single-Family-4 du/ac) Zoning District PREVIOUS ACTION: N/A RECOMMENDATION: The proposed Variance arises from conditions that are not unique and do not qualify as a hardship as defined in the St. Lucie County Land Development Code. The Variance does not qualify as a hardship as defined in the St. Lucie County Land Development Code. Staff has reviewed this petition and determined that it does not conform to a strict interpretation of the standards of review as set forth in Section 10.01.02, St. Lucie County Land Development Code.

ITEM NO.: 2021-52403 AGENDA NO.: 7.B. GENERAL INFORMATION: PROPERTY OWNER: LOCATION: PARCEL: PARCEL SIZE: Dina McNeill 131 Queen Catherina Ct. Fort Pierce, FL 34949 131 Queen Catherina Ct. Fort Pierce, FL 34949 1414-701-0141-000-6 0.30-acres FUTURE LAND USE: RU (Residential Urban — 5 du/ac) ZONING DISTRICT: RS-4 (Residential, Single -Family — 4 du/ac) PURPOSE: The purpose of this Variance is to allow a swimming pool to encroach into the required 15-foot rear yard setback by no more than 5-feet, providing a 10-foot rear yard setback. EXISTING USE: Single -Family Residence UTILITIES: Water, St. Lucie County Utilities (SLCU) Wastewater, private septic system ROADWAY IMPROVEMENTS: None Page 64 of 107 Board of Adjustment McNeill Pool Variance (BA-8202126112) SURROUNDING ZONING: To the north: Indian River Lagoon To the south: RS-4 (Residential, Single -Family - 4) To the east: RS-4 (Residential, Single -Family — 4) To the west: RS-4 (Residential, Single -Family — 4) BACKGROUND: The subject property is located in the Queens Cove Subdivision on North Hutchinson Island, at 131 Queen Catherina Court. The property abuts a canal along the northern property line with a hardened seawall or bulkhead. The property is zoned RS-4 (Residential, Single -Family — 4 du/ac), and has a RU (Residential, Urban) Future Use designation. The petitioner, Dina McNeill, is requesting a Variance to construct a pool up to 5-feet into the required 15-foot minimum rear yard setback, providing a total rear yard setback of 10-feet to the water's edge for the swimming pool. Exhibit 1: Boundary Survey The Queens Cove subdivision was platted in 1958 (Plat Book 11, Page 12). The subject 0.30-acre property is approximately 105' x 130' in size. The lot is conforming to the required minimum lot width of seventy-five (75) feet, the required minimum road frontage of thirty (30) feet, and the required minimum land area of 8,000 square feet, as required in the RS-4 (Residential, Single -Family — 4 du/ac) Zoning District.

The applicant is seeking approval of a variance to install an inground pool in the backyard approximately 10-ft from the rear lot line. The project is located at 131 Queen Catherina Ct. in Ft. Pierce and currently consists of one (1) single family residence on a 0.30-acre lot (Parcel ID 1414-701-0141-000-6) zoned Residential, Single Family - 4 (RS-4). Findings: The proposed pool is to lie approximately 13.5-ft from the seawall. The adjacent canal is manmade and therefore exempt from the riverine protection standards as outlined in Land Development Code 6.02.02.C. The proposed variance is not anticipated to result in any adverse environmental impacts as the parcel has already been impacted. Recommendation: ERD has no objection to the approval of the referenced Variance. In reviewing this application for a Variance from the St. Lucie County Land Development Code, the Board of Adjustment shall consider and make the following determinations: 1. The Variance requested arises from conditions that are unique and peculiar to the land, structures, and buildings involved; that the particular physical surroundings, the shape, or topographical condition of the specific property involved would result in unnecessary hardship for the owner, lessee, or occupant, as distinguished from a mere inconvenience, if the Provisions of Chapter 7 are literally enforced; that they are conditions that are not ordinarily found in the same Zoning District, and the conditions are created by the regulations of Chapter 7, of this Code, and not by an action or actions of the property owner or the applicant. The Variance does not arise from conditions that are unique and peculiar to the land and physical surroundings and do not result in an unnecessary hardship for the owner. It is the applicant's desire or action to integrate a pool that is inconsistent with setback provisions for this Zoning District. Page 3 Page 66 of 107 Board of Adjustment McNeill Pool Variance (BA-8202126112) Special conditions and circumstances do not exist that are peculiar to the parcel of land, building or structure, that are not applicable to other parcels of land, structures or buildings in the same zoning district, or the Queens Cove Subdivision. The lot is not irregularly shaped and is similar in shape and size to the surrounding properties. The granting of the Variance will not impair or injure other property or improvements in the neighborhood in which the subject property is located, nor impair an adequate supply of light or air to adjacent property, substantially increase the congestion in the public streets, increase the danger of fire, create a hazard to air navigation, endanger the public safety, or substantially diminish or impair property values within the neighborhood. The requested Variance is not anticipated to harm other property or improvements in the neighborhood, impair adequate supply of light or air to adjacent properties or streets, increase the danger of fire, or endanger public safety. The subject property backs up to the Indian River Lagoon; therefore, the rear setback does not abut any other residential property. There have been similar Variance requests previously granted within the Queens Cove Subdivision and the homeowner's association does not object to the request. Pool setbacks are measured from the pool water's edge when the patio or deck is constructed at grade. With this petition, the proposed pool deck is to be constructed at grade. At this time, the applicant is not proposing a screen enclosure or other vertical fixture above the pool. The adjacent property to the east has an existing fence, and should this Variance be approved, the required fencing will be constructed, as per LDC Section 8.00.05(A). 3. The Variance requested is the minimum Variance that will make possible the reasonable use of the land, building, or structures. The requested Variance is not the minimum needed to make possible the reasonable use of land and structures. The subject parcel is rectangular shaped with no unique features. The property owner has the option to construct a smaller pool, or redesign in order to meet the required minimum setbacks. 4. The Variance desired will not be opposed to the general spirit and intent of this Code or the St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan. The Variance desired is opposed to the general spirit and intent of the St. Lucie County Land Development Code (LDC). Section 7.04.01 of the St. Lucie County LDC establishes minimum building setbacks for structures with the purpose to preserve and improve visibility and uniformity, as well as the overall appearance to the neighborhood. RECOMMENDATION: The Variance sought does not arise from conditions that are unique and peculiar to the property. The Variance does not qualify as a hardship as defined in the St. Lucie County Land Development Code. Staff has reviewed this petition and determined it does not conform to a strict interpretation of the standards of review as set forth in St. Lucie County's Land Development Code Section 10.01.02. Staff is therefore recommending denial of the requested Variance.

McGee, Environmental Regulations Manager Amy E. Griffin, Environmental Resources Director FROM: Brian J. Arbeiter, Environmental Planner DATE: August 16', 2021 SUBJECT: McNeil Pool Variance BA-6202126057 Background The Environmental Resources Department (ERD) is in receipt of the August 3rd, 2021 date -stamped submittal from Planning and Development Services. The applicant is seeking approval of a variance to install an inground pool in the backyard approximately 10-ft from the rear lot line. The project is located at 131 Queen Catherina Ct. in Ft. Pierce and currently consists of one (1) single family residence on a 0.30-acre lot (Parcel 1D 1414-701-0141-000-6) zoned Residential, Single Family - 4 (RS-4). Findings The proposed pool is to lie approximately 13.5-ft from the seawall. The adjacent canal is manmade and therefore exempt from the riverine protection standards as outlined in Land Development Code 6.02.02.C. The proposed variance is not anticipated to result in any adverse environmental impacts as the parcel has already been impacted. Recommendation ERD has no objection to the approval of the referenced variance. Please contact Brian Arbeiter at 772-462-2866 if you have any questions. 1111111111 llllllic Page 95 of 107 J.

A. Authority. Unless otherwise provided for in this Code, the Board of Adjustment shall have authority to grant variances from the dimensional requirements of this Code, in accordance with the standards and procedures set forth in this section. B. Purpose. The purpose of a variance is to provide a mechanism when, owing to special conditions, the literal enforcement of the provisions of this Code would impose upon a landowner unnecessary hardship that can be mitigated without conferring on the applicant any special privilege. C. Initiation. A written petition for a variance is to be initiated by the owner of, or any person having contractual interest in, the property for which relief is sought. 10.01.02. - Standards for Granting Variances. The Board of Adjustment shall not grant a variance unless it shall, in each case, make specific findings of fact based directly upon the particular evidence presented supporting written conclusions that: A. The variance requested arises from a condition that is unique and peculiar to the land, structures and buildings involved; that the particular physical surroundings, the shape, or topographical condition of the specific property involved, would result in unnecessary hardship for the owner, lessee, or occupant, as distinguished from a mere inconvenience, if the provisions of this Code are literally enforced; that it is a condition that is not ordinarily found in the same zoning district, and the condition is created by the regulations of this Code, and not by an action or actions of the property owner or the applicant; B. The granting of the variance will not impair or injure other property or improvements in the neighborhood in which the subject property is located, nor impair an adequate supply of light or air to adjacent property, substantially increase the congestion in the public streets, increase the danger of fire, create a hazard to air navigation, endanger the public safety, or substantially diminish or impair property values within the neighborhood; C. The variance granted is the minimum variance that will make possible the reasonable use of the land, building or structures; and D. The variance desired will not be opposed to the general spirit and intent of this Code or the St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan. 10.01.03. - Limitations on Granting Variances. A. Variances shall not be granted that would: Permit a building or structure to have a height in excess of one hundred twenty percent (120%) of that permitted by Table 1 in Section 7.04.00; or permit a lot width or road frontage less than eighty percent (80%) of that permitted by said Table, except: a. In the case of nonconforming lots of record, provided, however, that a variance to construct a permitted or authorized accessory structure on such a lot shall be governed by the provisions of Section 10.00.04; and In the AGA AG-2.5 and AG-5 Agricultural Districts, road frontage of less than sixty (60) feet may be permitted on parcels of ten (10) acres or more in total area. 2. Permit the use of land or a structure contrary to the use provisions of Section 3.01.00; Permit a variance from the provisions of Section 4.01.00 that would authorize any building to have a height in excess of one hundred twenty percent (120%) of the maximum permitted by the particular zone in which it is located or to be in excess of one hundred twenty-five (125) feet, whichever is less. Page 104 of 107 B. A variance to construct an accessary agricultural structure on agricultural property lacking sufficient frontage shall be governed by the provisions of Section 10.01.07. C. A variance from the requirements of Section 7.07.00, Stormwater Management, shall be governed by the provisions of Section 10.01.08. D. A variance from the requirements of Section 7.05.06, Driveways, shall be governed by the provisions of Section 10.01.09. E. A variance from the requirements of Section 6.05.00, Flood Damage Prevention, shall be governed by the provisions of Section 10.01.10. No variance from the dimensional requirements of Section 7.00.00, other than variances granted for or in conjunction with a Final Development Order as described under Section 11.02.00, shall be valid for a period longer than twelve (12) months unless a building permit is issued. A variance issued for, or in, conjunction with a Final Development Order as described under Section 11.02.00 shall expire upon the termination of that Final Development Order unless the Final Development Order is extended or otherwise determined to be compliant with the provisions of this Code. 10.01.04. - Procedures for Application. A. Application. An application for a variance shall be filed with the Growth Management Director, accompanied by a non-refundable fee, as established from time to time by the Board of County Commissioners to defray the actual cost of processing the application. The application shall be in such form and shall contain such information and documentation as shall be prescribed from time to time by the Director and shall contain at least the following: 1. Name and address of applicant; 2. Legal description, street address, and lot number and subdivision name, if any, of the property which is the subject of the application; 3. The size of the subject property; 4. The variance sought and the Section of this Code from which a variance is requested. Except for non-residential accessory structures in AG-1, AG-2.5 and AG-5, if the application is for one hundred percent (100%) variance from road frontage requirements, proof of recorded legal access shall be furnished with the application; 5. The purpose for the requested variance and a statement of the intended development of property if the variance is granted; 6. A statement of the hardship imposed on the applicant by this Code; a statement setting forth reasons why this hardship is unique to the applicant, and why the same hardship is not imposed on other property in the neighborhood that is similarly situated; a statement of why the variance will not be materially detrimental or injurious to other property or improvements in the neighborhood in which the subject property is located; a statement of why the variance will not increase traffic, the danger of fire, or impair property values in the neighborhood; a statement of why the proposed variance is the minimum variance that will make possible a reasonable use of the land, building, and structures; and a statement explaining how the proposed variance is consistent with the general spirit and intent of this Code and the St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan; 7. If the variance is sought to erect or increase the height of any structure, to permit the growth of any tree, or to use property in the Airport Zones established in Section 4.00.00,the application shall be accompanied by a written determination from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA Form 7460) as to the effect of the proposal on the operation of air navigation facilities and the safe, efficient use of navigable airspace. B. Filing an Application for Approval of a Variance. Within twenty (20) days after an application for approval of a variance is submitted, the Growth Management Director shall determine whether the application is complete. If the Director determines that the application is not complete, he shall send Page 105 of 107 a written statement specifying the application's deficiencies to the applicant by mail. The Director shall take no further action on the application unless the deficiencies are remedied. C. Review of the Application. 1. Review by the Growth Management Director. When the Growth Management Director determines an application for approval of a variance is complete, he shall review the application, make a recommendation, and submit it to the Board of Adjustment. 2. Review by the Airport Director and the FDOT, a. If the variance is sought to erect or increase the height of any structure, to permit the growth of any tree, or to use property in the Airport Zones established in Section 4.00.00, the Growth Management Director shall determine whether the application for approval of a variance is complete. Once the application is complete, the Director shall furnish a copy of the application to the St. Lucie County Airport Director and to the Florida Department of Transportation Aviation Office, 605 Suwanee Street, MS-46, Tallahassee, Florida, within ten (10) days of the determination of completeness for advice as to the aeronautical effects of the variance. b. Upon receipt of the comments of the Airport Director and the FDOT, the Growth Management Director shall review the application, make a recommendation, and submit it to the Board of Adjustment. If the Airport Director does not respond to the application within fifteen (15) days and the Department of Transportation does not respond within forty-five (45) days after receipt, the Director shall review the application, make a recommendation, and submit it to the Board of Adjustment. 10.01.05. - Action of Board of Adjustment. A. Upon notification that an application for a variance is complete, the Board of Adjustment shall place the application on the agenda of a regularly scheduled meeting for a public hearing in accordance with Section 11.00.03. In reviewing the application for variance approval, the Board of Adjustment shall use the standards in Section 10.01.02. The Board may require the applicant to meet certain conditions before approval of the variance. B. Within a reasonable time of the hearing, the Board of Adjustment shall issue its decision approving, approving with conditions, or denying through resolution the requested variance. C. The Board of Adjustment may place reasonable conditions, limitations, and requirements upon the granting of any variance as may be necessary to ensure compliance with the intent of this Code. Such conditions, limitations, or requirements may be placed on the granting of any variance to prevent or minimize adverse effects upon other property in the neighborhood which might otherwise result from the reductions in standards being requested, including but not limited to conditions, limitations, or requirements on the size, intensity of use, bulk, and location of any structure; landscaping; lighting; the provision of adequate ingress and egress, and the duration of the variance. Such conditions, limitations, or requirements shall be set forth expressly in the resolution granting the variance. D. Any variance from the provisions of Section 4.00.00, Airport Overlay Zone, will be so conditioned as to require the owner of the structure or tree in question to install, operate, and maintain, at the owner's expense, such markings and lights as required by F.S. § 333.07(3, in accordance with the standards published in Chapter 14-60, FAC, Rules of the Department of Transportation. If deemed proper by the Board of Adjustment, this condition may be modified to require the owner to permit St. Lucie County at its own expense, to install, operate, and maintain the necessary markings and lights. E. The decision of the Board of Adjustment shall be mailed to the petitioner and filed with the Office of the Growth Management Director in accordance with Section 11.00.04(F). 10.01.06. - Extensions of Variance Approvals.
