SP-34-99 — Site Plan Francisco L. Olivera — Redan International, Inc. for property located at
202 SE 15th Avenue, Dania Beach, FL. For the proposed construction of a professional
office building and retail use.
Terry Virta, AICP, Growth Management Director addressed the board explaining that the
applicant is seeking to build a 6000 square feet office on a 17,830 square area. In order to
do so the applicant will need two variances from the city's landscape requirements. The
first is that he be allowed to provide a four foot landscape buffer along Sheridan St. when
the code requires that there be five feet. The second is that he be allowed to provide 880
square feet of internal landscaping when the minimum required under code is 1538 square
feet. The project appears to be an admirable addition to the City. The landscaping
materials indicated on the plan do not meet code by having 64 percent of the landscape
being palm trees instead of only 20 percent. The plans will have to be revised to reflect the
correct percentage as per the landscape code. Mr. Virta concluded his summation by
stating that he could not support the variances as requested due to having too much
building on the site even though the building is very attractive and nice to look at. Staff
commends the nice work the architect has done. Mr. Virta further stated that since he can
not support the variance request he is recommending the site plan as submitted be denied.
Board discussion on the landscape plan and the city's landscape code.
Wilson Hernandez, architect for the applicant addressed the board explaining that the
landscape plan has been revised and Mr. Virta has not had a chance to review it. Mr.
Hernandez described for the board the location of the property and the necessity of the
need for the landscape variances. Discussion on the proposed use of the building. Mr.
Hernandez described an alternate plan for review by the board.
The chairman opened the item for public comment. John Bruckner, resident spoke against
the variances due to too much on a small lot. Lynn Hahn, resident spoke against the
variances. Hearing and seeing no one further the chairman closed the public hearing.
Board member Adams addressed the board stating that he does not see any reason by the
applicant could not meet the code and does not support the variances. Board discussed
the applicant not showing any hardship and that the project is very attractive and would like
to see the applicant come in compliance with the code. Mr. Hernandez explained a reduced
version of the variance request. Chairman Lohmann stated that he is willing to support a
variance for a 1 foot reduction in the green space if that would allow the project to proceed.
Mr. Virta stated that the petitioner still has not shown hardship. Board member Adams
questioned if Mr. Hernandez can provide the 1538 square feet of internal landscaping. Mr.
Hernandez responded that yes he can with the new calculations he has provided to the
board.

10. VA-42-99—Variance request by Leigh R. Kerr, AICP, representative for Donna Krilich / R.K.
Companies, Inc. for property located at 151 SW W Ave., Dania Beach, FL. Mr. Kerr is
requesting variances from the City of Dania Beach Code of Zoning Ordinances.
SA-43-99 — Sign Adjustment request - Chapter 28, entitled "Zoning", Article 27, "Signs",
Section 27.110 Restrictions in areas zoned commercial. The petitioner would like a
variance to allow construction of a one hundred (100) foot sign which would be visible from
1-95 for the proposed "Cracker Barrel" project.
Terry L. Virta, AICP, Growth Management Director, described for the board the reasons the
petitioner is in need of the height and parking variances. The parking variance is for a
reduction of 35% in parking calculations and is currently being reviewed by Hughes, Hall
Inc. is not available at the present time. Mr. Virta stated that popularity of the Cracker
Barrel Restaurants makes parking or the sharing of it a difficult situation to review. Mr. Virta
described the sign adjustment the applicant is seeking and gave examples of other Cracker
Barrel Restaurants that have significantly smaller signs. Mr. Virta concluded his summation
by stating that he supports the height variance for the conference facility allowing it to be up
to 48 feet in height. He does not recommend approval of the sign waiver requested for the
restaurant, the applicant has not shown that he cannot provide adequate signage with what
is allowed for under the city code. Mr. Virta further stated that the request for reducing the
parking requirement should be continued until such time as a full analysis can be completed
by the city's traffic consultant. Board discussion on signage height.
Michael Craddock, architect for the petitioner, described for the board the proposed
expansion for the Oakridge Hotel development and handed out exhibits for the board to
review. Stated the height variance would be consistent with the height throughout the
development. Mr. Craddock stated that the sign waiver is to interest the Cracker Barrel in
their site and to provide them with the signage they are accustomed to. Further stated that
it would be consistent with the area, being that the Comfort Inn across the street has one
100 foot pylon sign and the Oakwood Development has two 100 foot pylon signs. Without
the variance the hotel would shadow the sign from the 1-95 view of potential customers. In
regards to parking, the hotel provides shuttle service and has surplus parking at the existing
hotel. Mr. Craddock feels that the parking they will be providing is sufficient in addition to
the possible future plan to build a parking structure on the north portion of the development.
Board questioned Mr. Craddock on the Cracker Barrel's position on the signage they are
requiring. Mr. Craddock stated that their interest would diminish if the signage they are
requesting is not granted. Discussion by board on current 100 foot height variance that
the entire site currently has. Mr. Virta explained the history of the height variance by stating
that in 1986 a height variance was granted for a 100 foot variance for anything on that site.
The variance was revisited in the spring of 1997 due to the time limit of 10 years and the
construction of the Springhill Suites. Since then the new sign ordinance has taken place.
The approved site plan for the Springhill Suites does include a 100 foot sign that has not
been built yet. Board questioned petitioner on the current billboards. Michael Thomas,
developer for the petitioner, addressed the board stating that there are 2 billboards currently
on the Cracker Barrel site, the one by AK media will be removed. Further discussion on
billboards and proposed changes to the billboards. Mr. Thomas stated that no decision has
been made on whether or not a 100 foot sign will be erected for the Springhill Suites.

Planning and Zoning Board 8 June 16, 1999
MINUTES
Chapter 28, Zoning, Article 27, Signs, Section 27.160 — Downtown Dania Beach
Redevelopment District Sign Regulations. Mr. Glassman is proposing to replace two
existing pole signs on the site with monument type signs, set back less than 10 feet from
the front property line.
Terry L. Virta, AICP, Growth Management Director, described for the board the proposed
sign waiver request. Mr. Virta stated that Mr. Glassman has applied for two monument
signs at the Dania Shopping center which is located in the downtown sign district and would
be allowed only one monument sign of twenty-five square feet. Mr. Glassman is proposing
that the be allowed to erect a primary sign of 128 square feet at a height of 18.5 feet. The
ordinance would allow a sign height of eight feet. This request is for an area of over 500%
above the allowed minimum and a height, which is more than double. The second
monument sign is being requested for Jaxson's Ice Cream Store. The sign is proposed to
be 47.5 square feet in area and ten feet tall. In area this sign is almost double that which
would be allowed for a primary sign and taller by two feet than the sign regulations would
permit. Mr. Virta concluded his summation by stating his concern about the magnitude of
the waivers that have been requested. Recognizing that the downtown regulations might be
overly restrictive Mr. Virta recommended a scaled down request. The primary sign could be
brought down to a height of eight feet and the area was reduced to no more than fifty
square feet. Also, appreciating the institutional nature of Jaxson's Ice Cream considering a
second monument sign that was eight feet in height and no more than twenty-five feet in
area.
Mr. Glassman, the petitioner stated that present sign has been at the shopping pp g center for
the last forty years and is 240 square feet. The new sign would be 160 square feet which is
a 40% decrease. Mr. Glassman has 16 tenants and 5 major tenants. Stated that it would
be difficult to fit all the tenants on an eight foot height sign. If the waiver is not granted than
Mr. Glassman will not have any signage at the shopping center. Asked the board to
approve the request as presented. Mr. Glassman further stated that if approved for the
signs he would fix up the shopping center with better landscaping. Board member Adams
stated that he is only prepared to support the recommendations of Mr. Virta. Board
member Dubow stated that the signs are very attractive. Board member Seay questioned
Attorney Ansbro in regards to signage being allowed to extend over the walkway. Attorney
Ansbro stated that they can have a projecting sign on the building over the walkway where
the stores are. Mr. Glassman gave examples of other signs that were approved by other
cities. Board stated that the examples are not comparable in size to Mr. Glassman's
shopping center.
The chairman opened the item for public comment. Hearing and seeing no one the
chairman closed the public hearing.
Motion made by Bob Adams to deny SA(VA25-98). Motion fails for lack of 2"d
Richard Seay expressed to the board his approval of the waiver as requested and that an
exception should be made. Board discussion on alternatives to the requested signs. Board
