Planning & Zoning Commission/ Local Planning Agency February 10, 2016 Page 4 Presentation is attached and made a part of the minutes). Ms. Hanna said staff requests the Planning and Zoning Commission review the Development of Community Impact site plan application for Casselberry Greenville (SPR 15-17) and provide a favorable recommendation to the City Commission. She said the waiver and the conditions of approval are listed in the staff report. A brief discussion ensued regarding the number of monument signs proposed for the project, Seminole County Fire Department approval of the roundabouts, site visibility from the site with landscaping/sign placement and the possible need for a traffic light in the area. The Commission suggested adding a "hidden driveway" sign due to the speed on that road. Mr. Henson asked the applicant to come forward. Ms. Michelle Tanner, 1117 Robinson Street, Orlando, Florida and Mr. Rick Conant 120 W. Robinson Street, Orlando, Florida came forward. In response to the Commission's question, Mr. Conant said the wall design will be a precast wall system with accent stone on some of the columns and some of the faces. He said it will be a decorative wall. He said the other subdivision walls in the area are primarily brick. He said this wall will be a stucco material with a sand finish. Ms. Tanner said that they concur with staffs recommendation of approval. She noted that there were several Development Review Committee comments relative to the existing city road cul-de-sacs that encroach along the southern property boundary. She said they will be seeking approval of an impact fee credit to offset the necessary road improvements for the City to cure those encroachments. Ms. Tanner said that the roadwork will be done by the applicant as requested by the City. She said the work will include moving those improvements offsite into dedicated rights of way. In response to the Commission's question, Ms. Tanner said the applicant is moving forward with the approvals and would like to start construction as soon as possible. In response to the Commission's question, Ms. Tanner said that there is an existing retention pond that will be expanded towards the secondary entrance. She said that Seminole County owns the retention pond and there is an agreement in place whereby the applicant can use that pond for stormwater retention. Mr. Henson asked if there was anyone in the audience who wished to speak in favor of, or in opposition to, the request. No one came forward. A brief discussion ensued regarding the number of walls along this area and the cohesiveness of the design of all the walls. Mr. Conant said this particular project has retention ponds on both sides of it so it does not actually adjoin to another property or another frontage fence. He said it is very much free standing in the way it architecturally presents itself. He said the walls will be painted in colors schemes that will match the houses and it will blend with the project.
