SEVERABILITY AND AN EFFECTIVE DATE.
ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION
Adopt the Ordinance on Second Reading.
ANALYSIS
Approximately one (1) year ago, the City Commission adopted amendments to the Single
Family Development Regulations section of the City Code to provide a certain amount of
protection to architecturally significant single family homes constructed prior to 1942. As
the functionality of these Ordinance Amendments began to unfold, the Historic
Preservation Board, the Planning Department and the Land Use and Development
Committee began to study ways of reducing the burden of regulations on single family
homes located in historic districts. Additionally, it became clear that more of an incentive
and an easing of restrictions for the designation of single family homes was needed, in
order to make it more attractive to home owners without making it a requirement.
The first part of the proposed Ordinance Amendment deals with revisions to the single
family home designation procedures. Currently, the designation of an individual single
family home as an historic site requires the following:
1. Two (2) public hearings before the Historic Preservation Board;
2. One (1) public hearing before the Planning Board;
3. Two (2) public hearings before the City Commission.
June 11, 2003
Commission Memorandum
Ordinance - Single Family Designation and Development Procedures
Page 2 of 3
In order to reduce the burden and expense on an individual property owner, as well make it
more attractive for people to consider voluntary, individual designation, a simplification of
the designation procedures for single family homes is necessary. The following is a
summary of the proposed changes:
Only one (1) hearing would be required for designation instead of five (5). This
single hearing would be before the Historic Preservation Board. The historic
preservation board will make a determination as to whether the subject structure
may be designated as an historic structure based upon the requirements and
criteria of Section 118-592.
The amount of required information that must be submitted with the application has
been reduced.
The public notice requirements have been simplified and consist only of an
advertisement in a paper of general paid circulation in the community.
The application fee for the individual designation of a single family home has been
eliminated.
The easing of development regulations for single family homes designated as
historic structures; currently, most modifications, additions and alterations to existing
single family homes are required to be approved by the Historic Preservation Board
and the staff to the Board has a somewhat limited role. Specifically, additions to
single family homes, whether attached or detached, which are not substantially
visible from the public right-of-way or from the ocean front would be able to be
approved administratively. Also, modifications, additions, alterations and demolition
to single family homes, provided such modifications, additions, alterations and
demolition are substantially in accordance with historic documentation, or consistent
with the architectural scale, massing, character and style of the structure and do not
result in the removal of significant architectural features, details or finishes would be
able to be approved administratively.
Currently, the process for designating a single family home is lengthy, cumbersome and
not very attractive to a home owner. The proposed modifications should make the
individual designation of a single family home a more viable option, and will provide a
means for allowing a property owner to retain and preserve an architecturally significant
structure, in the event the cost of the renovation exceeds the 50% rule, and the finished
floor is below minimum flood elevation. As a designated historic structure, those single
family homes that have a finished floor below minimum flood elevation are eligible to seek
a waiver from the Flood Plain Management Board.
Another advantage to easing the single family designation requirements is that it gives the
Single Family Residential Review Board another option when offering alternatives to
demolition. In addition to these physical preservation incentives, as a designated historic
structure, an individual property owner would also be eligible to apply for a County property
tax abatement for historic structures.
Finally, as a small clean-up amendment to the Altos-Del-Mar section of the Ordinance, the
Administration is proposing to eliminate language that is no longer applicable to the
development regulations for new construction. This language was likely included in the
June 11, 2003
Commission Memorandum
Ordinance - Single Family Designation and Development Procedures

designation of the Altos-del-Mar district in error. Specifically, the following sentence would
be eliminated
"Development within the historic district whether on city, state, or privately owned lots, shall
be reviewed by the planning board and approved by the city commission pursuant to the
conditional use procedures as set forth in chapter 118, article IV".
Because the City Commission no longer reviews conditional use applications, and the
Historic Preservation Board reviews new construction projects in historic districts, this
sentence is no longer applicable.
The Historic Preservation Board reviewed the proposed ordinance on January 14, 2003
and recommended its approval. The Land Use and Development Committee reviewed the
proposed amendments on March 17, 2003 and April 21, 2003. On March 25, 2003 the
Planning Board voted to transmit the proposed Ordinance Amendment to the City
Commission with a favorable recommendation.
On May 21,2003, the City Commission adopted the proposed Ordinance on First Reading.
CONCLUSION
The Administration recommends that the Mayor and City CommiSsion adopt the proposed
Ordinance Amendment on Second Reading.
Pursuant to Section 118-164(4) of the City Code, an affirmative vote of five-sevenths shall
be necessary in order to enact any amendments to the Land Development Regulations.
