Okay. Thank you. Next we have presentation and discussion for ARB-three 63, discussion of the 2026 Florida Recreational Development Assistance Program, FRDAP, grant application in the

amount of $200,000 for improvements to Forestia Park. So the finance department is applying for a grant for two grants for Forest Area Park and Primrose Park through the Florida Recreational Development Assistance Program. And as part of that application, they require the discussion of the grant at a board. It doesn't matter what board it is, whichever one is the next scheduled one. So we were the next scheduled board.

So just a FYI, they're requesting $200,000 for improvements to Forest Area Park and Primrose Park. And for each one, it's a playground, basketball court, gazebo, and landscaping.

Okay.

I know action is needs to be done. It's just more of a informational discussion. Okay.

Anybody have any comments? In other words, the village will pay 200 to improve each park and the state upon successful completion of the grant will pay 200.

Correct, I don't know what the if it's required to match. I don't know that much detail but some of these grants require matching. Some of them, oh it says 50,000 have no matching fund requirement. Grants more than 15 up to. Yeah, so we are required to put in some I think but

25% matching funds requirement.

Yeah, but the max that they can get is 200. They have to apply for it. This is like, this is the first step in applying.

And this discussion is also including ARB Dash 364, which is Primrose Park. I mentioned before Forest Area. But it's all encompassing. Correct. Okay. Any other comments? No. Okay. Swearing in speakers. If anybody that's here tonight in the public that is going to wish to speak tonight, Kelly's gonna go ahead and swear you in.

If you wish to speak, please raise your right hand.

Raise your right hand. Just in case you guys kick butt.

So I don't have to

swear you in again. Do you swear to tell the truth, whole truth, and nothing but the truth?

Because she needs to keep her

hand up.

Thank you. Oh, you have to do it too. Do you do you

swear to tell the truth, whole truth, and nothing but the truth? I

Thank you. On any of today's agenda items, is there any ex parte communication?

Yes, Stacy. I drove by 1789 Pierside Circle.

Okay. Thank you. Anybody else? I also drive by as well. Okay.

Based off of your drive by, can you be fair and impartial? Yes.

Yes, ma'am.

Okay. So moving on to old business, ARBDash356, petition number 2025Dash0007DashARB, Farrell Estates Elevations and Materials.

Okay. So before you tonight are some more elevations for Farrell Wellington Estates, which I would like to officially enter into the record. Oh, that's the end of it. Hold on, sorry. And I have Mr. Sanchez here, who's the agent and he will be presenting after my presentation. Faroe West, you'll see it along Forest Hill at the Polo Club entrance. You'll see all those houses being built on the overpass. It's about 23 acres residential C land use. It's within the Wellington PUD.

And tonight they're requesting to prove elevations, colors and materials for Lots 3 And 4. And just more of an FYI on the revised elevations for Lot 1921 And 22. And just a little background because I don't think some of the members have been here since the last elevations have come through. It was previously the southern portion of the North Course, which closed in 2000, and it was converted to a single polo field and hosted weekly Sunday soccer games. And in 2023, village council approved a land use map amendment from open space rec to residential C.

And they also approved a master plan amendment to assign 27 units to the property. And condition three of that master plan requires all of the models to get ARB approval. This is just a little map of what we've approved already. In the red are the new or the new lots that we're discussing today. And then I have this little guy on the side that he doesn't have a home. He's not assigned to any lots but he's floating out there. He may be assigned to one of them. But these are the lots that we've already approved. This is Lot 3. The materials and Mr.

Sanchez will go through it more. But this is Lot 3 and it meets the design points. Again, it's the modern theme throughout the neighborhood. This does not have any flat roof structures, so we don't have to talk about that. Same with this. This one doesn't have any flat roof, just the awning in the front, but we wouldn't really consider that a flat roof. And this is Lot 4. And these are just the revised elevations for Lot 1. Just some slight changes, removing of shutters, mullions and wooded door next to the garage. And the top is the what was approved, the bottom is what is proposed.

So just a very slight difference. This is Lot 9, modify the front door, converts to a three car garage and they chose a different wood material. The top is the approved, the bottom is the proposed. Lot 21, they removed the wood and added some charcoal gray accent features instead. And then lot 22, they modified the front door material, the wood color and removed wood elements on the side.

And the proposed request is consistent with the comprehensive plan, land use element LU CD1 and housing and neighborhood goal HNN1 to preserve and enhance Wellington's neighborhood. And land use and community design policy LU and CD 2.1.2 maintain a high standard for aesthetic quality. Not that one. Where am I going? Sorry.

And like I said, these are their previously approved models. This just shows how the proposed models are consistent with what has already been approved throughout the neighborhood. And it is not in any conflict with any portion of Wellington's LDR and is consistent with the purpose and intent of the land development regulations. And like shown in your staff report, all designs meet the 80 design criteria. And that really is the only design standards that we have for single family residential.

And it's compatible and consistent with the existing uses and zoning of the property surrounding the site. Part of the master plan, they're required to install landscape buffers around the entire perimeter of the subdivision. And they worked very hard with golf cottages to make sure that the south buffer was improved. And even though this golf cottages does not it's not consistent with their architecture, there are many different types of homes within Palm Beach Polo that were built in many different eras, architectural design. So this is its own little unique little subdivision.

And then again, we have approved many modern homes throughout Palm Beach Polo and throughout Wellington. These are just more of the flat homes that we've we've approved through ARB. But it is consistent with what we're seeing today in like the the modern era of architecture. And based on the findings and consistency with the comp plan and land development regulations, the Planning and Zoning Division recommends approval of petition 2020Five-seven7Dash ARB, Farrell Wellington Estates elevations, colors and materials with the conditions listed in the staff report.

Thank you. And then

I have Mr. Sanchez is here. I had to make it a PDF.

Thank you, Kelly. Madam chair, members of the board, my name is Michael Sanchez. I'm here representing Feral Feral Companies. They're the developer of the Feral Estates Wellington project. And looks like we're working from a PDF here and miss Fiorello addressed most of the items. I'll just have a couple of minor ones to to add to this. So bear with the technology here, but you're all familiar with the site. This is the site plan. I know it's kinda hard to see, but basically it's 27 single family lots. And as Kelly indicated, we got approval of this in back in 2023.

Been under construction, you know, after we obtained all the permits and everything. Right now, we have six houses under construction. It's hard to see here. This is an aerial from last month, but you have Lot 1 here and then you have twenty, twenty one, and 22, and then Lot 9 up here, and then Lot 24 has recently just started. This is the trailer complex. Forest Hill is up on the north end there. So really this is the elevation you saw on Kelly's presentation. We stuck with the modern type theme, but this is more transitional. There's some stucco. There's variations in colors and materials.

We have a wood feature that is on the main elevation on the front. There'll be wood in the eaves as well. It's kinda hard to see here, but here on the looking at this the left side of the house, there's a little projection here that that will also have the wood element to complement the front. And then on the back, have the wood element on the top. Nice big covered patio, which is kind of a feature of all these homes in Wellington.

So that's Lot 3. Lot 4 and excuse me, Lot 3 has a concrete tile roof. Lot 4 is somewhat similar, but we tried to make it a little bit different in that it's a diff completely different house, but we have a tower feature here on the front. Same hip roofs. This one has a metal roof. A larger awning here in the front. Different colors. Different materials. So this is the front rendering. There's another view of the front rendering here.

A lot of different roof variations. And then on the back, a very nice rear elevation with a little tower feature here and the same colors and materials as the front. And then just briefly, changes to the houses that are under construction, you know, as you get into construction plans and things aren't working out correctly and we need to modify some things. One of the things that came back to bite us was these awnings that, frankly, we liked. This room here does not have a means of egress and so one of we had to make one of the windows an egress window.

The windows were already installed. So and these windows are they open outward, so we had to remove the awnings. We also removed these horizontal mullions in the windows just because there's a lot of patterns and things on this house and we just thought it was gonna be too busy with those horizontal mullions. So I know it's hard to see this is the same elevation that Kelly showed. Pretty much the same thing but we removed the awnings and we removed the horizontal mullions. Sorry. That was proposed that was approved. This is proposed. We changed the rear door to a black metal door which is very nice actually. Moving on to Lot 9.

This is the approved rendering. Pretty much the same, but we this is the approved. We just modified the wood color a little bit to make it a little less orange and cleaned up the three car garage. We have this metal door which is very nice. It has a groove in it and everyone is is that's already installed actually. It's everyone's very pleased with with that door. It looks very bold here but it's not that prominent out there in the field. Lot 21, my favorite house out there but we weren't crazy about the colors. This is the only flat roof house. We weren't crazy about the the wood.

So this is previously approved and then this is proposed. So we still have some wood in the eaves, but we went with more of a gray and and dark charcoal, make it a little cleaner. So the the those two d elevations aren't great, but the rendering really shows you what it'll look like and we think it just looks a lot better than the original. And then lastly, this was '22 which had kind of this orange looking wood. So we just cleaned it up a little bit.

This was previously approved. And then we introduced the same black metal door which is which is very nice and then kind of a lighter wood to be not as not as much of a contrast to the stucco on the house. That concludes my presentation. I'm happy to answer any questions.

Thank you. Thank you. Questions? So

Michael, on lot 22 proposed, you're saying when you change the wood colors, it gonna be more like like lot three or different color?

Let me see the proposed that one is very much like lot three. Exactly. Yes. On lot lot 20, it's a little oh, not lot 20. Excuse me. Sorry. Lot this one, lot nine, it's a little more gray. And those are in your materials and I didn't have it on the presentation, but.

That's it. Thank you.

Mhmm. Thank you.

Hi, Michael. Thanks for coming. I know they have so many different HOAs in the Polo Club. Did they need approval from the Master Association for the different variations considering this is a whole new Oh, for sure.

Structure. And that board has that AR architectural that's actually architectural commission from Palm Beach Polo. That is a new group that is a little more stringent now and we had to go back to them. This was originally gonna be this hearing was gonna be a couple months ago and we had to pause because we had to go back in front of them a couple of times and they're much more stringent, but everything that you're seeing here has been approved by them.

Okay. They forward that approval? Yes. Okay. Thank you very much. Sure. You. Maybe metal roofs compared to the shingle. What what is the builder? What do you guys think is more sufficient, better?

I don't I have to check with the the the construction guys on the cost, but we we just try to mix it up. We had we have some metal and some

concrete tile

just to just mix why it

you would go back and forth with Yeah.

Truffrilli. These are you know, we might have 27 unique designs out here.

Okay.

Right? So maybe, right? So this are sort of semi custom and we don't want them to be, we don't want the neighbor to say, oh, I'm, you know, I look like my neighbor next door. So we're trying to just have some variation.

Going against the grain. Yes, looking for you guys. Alright. Thank you. Thank you.

Anyone else?

Oh, you guys good? Okay.

Thank you. I will, motion to open to the public. Are there any comments from anyone in the public? Hearing no comments from the public, I'll close that motion. Anybody else on the board for their discussion? No. Okay. Is there a motion?

I'll I'll put forward a motion to approve ARB three fifty three five six petition 20250007 Farrell Estates Elevations and Materials.

As per staff's recommendation.

As per staff's recommendation.

Do we have a second?

Second that.

Thank you. Any objections to the motion? All in favor say aye.

Aye.

Any opposed? Hearing none, motion carries.

Thank you. Welcome.

Okay. Moving on to new business. ARBDash365. Petition number 2025Dash0016DashARB. 11667, Manatee Bay Lane, Alternative Design.

Good evening. My name is John Sandoval, planner here for the Village of Wellington, and I'm presenting to you today petition 2025Dash0016DashARB at 11667 Manatee Bay Lane.

Oh god. Sorry.

This one? The owner is Ashwin Prudhatore. Their property sits on a 0.31 acres of land within within the Aisles Of Wellington Subdivision. The request of approval is for a 14 foot by 14 par sorry. By 24 foot detached solid flat roof aluminum pergola that does not match the design of the principal structure.

Some background on the property. It was purchased by the owner back in 2010 consisting of a single family residence originally built in 2002. The owner did apply for a building permit though it was returned as it did not match the principal structure. The images as you see above are of the existing conditions. The following two on the left show the backyard of the house and can see the stakes marking where the pergola is proposed to be placed.

The image is to the right of the front of the house from a street view. Now, being shown is the proposed location of the pergola on a survey. The two images to the right are examples regarding the proposed structure of the pergola with the white roof. The analysis from staff is that the proposed pergola will be impose will not be imposing upon the neighborhood as it will be screened by hedging. The plan is for the grass below the pergola to remain.

The conditions of approval include the hedging along the east and south portion of the property for screening. Air ARB approval for modifications to the pergola regarding size or design and will be required to attain all necessary inspections and permits. Thank you.

Thank you. Is there anybody here tonight from the property?

Mister Ashwin Prudator.

Hello.

Hi. And then if you could just state your name.

Ashwin Predator.

Thank you. Do you have anything you'd like to add?

So we applied for this permit. We are looking for some backyard living space to have some family time. We're going with a modern pergola look. And lately, these have been very common. We've been seeing these installed in a lot of backyards with or without pool and it gives a nice look over here. Basically we are proposing a we're planning to have a 14 by 24 pergola to be installed in a backyard.

Will there be electric? Will there be any electric or?

We have not planned for any electric now but if we decide to do any electric we will do the permits and apply for the electric for the pergola.

And will it sit on a cement slab?

No. It's on grass right now. Oh, I mean the slab. Yes. I do have the engineering diagrams for that. It's gonna be, again, I'm not technical with the slab, but there is they're gonna pour concrete is what they told me and the crisscross patterns of the iron or the metal that they have to use.

Is there a reason I'm sorry. Is there a reason why the color of this couldn't be more conducive to the color of your home?

Any idea? This the the most common ones where we are seeing is and we actually like the bronze color that we have seen at a few places. Also, a couple of friends who had installed this in the past. They I mean, it doesn't look like it's something different from a structure. Bronze is pretty much looked like it went with different colors of the homes that they had over there.

And has your HOA given you approval to go Yes, forward with HOA.

I've given you all copies of the HOA approval letter.

The size of the hedges that would shield this from I know part of it is being what is Minimum size.

Six to eight foot to be maintained at that height. You can see along

Some say foot have to be installed originally. Correct. Correct.

Well, they don't have to be installed originally, but they'll have to grow and be maintained at six to eight feet. And usually we give two years to grow. Okay.

Yeah. The way it's situated, have left enough space for some edging on the site. So it's the pergola but it when the edge grows to six to eight feet, there's nothing visible from the side.

We have enough room for that.

Yeah. Your HOA force you to get permission from any of your neighbors on either side?

Not that I'm aware of because they approved it. If there was a requirement they would have asked to get that approval from the neighbors.

Okay. Thank you.

Just a question for color. What style are you looking to do? The one that's black with the white or the one that's the above So

the columns are going to be bronze and the roof is going to be the roof for the pergola is going to be white color.

So it's the bottom one. Top right picture?

Top right

picture but it has white there but it's actually bronze. We didn't have a picture for bronze so we just put it there but we made a note saying it's bronze.

So it's bronze with what? White framing or

The the whole structure is bronze, except that you see some slats or lattice that's going across. Those are gonna be white color to give it a good accent to the pergola.

So the lattice and the roof are going to be white and then the rest of the structure is going be bronze. Is

that correct?

That's

right. But it's going

to look like the top photo,

not the bottom photo.

That's right.

Bottom photo is only for the roof color of sensation of it being white.

And it'll be closed in the back portion?

It's not going be closed. There's going to be similarly what you see over there, a wall. But that's going to be in the middle of the pergola on the backside.

Okay and then you'll have the bronze in the middle? The framing where it's white will be bronze?

That's going to be white. Going to be white. Are the insulated panels I believe based on what my contractor explained. And, the reason they don't do other colors for the insulation is because of the heat in Florida and the way it laminates. It requires it to be white color is what I was told.

Does anybody else in your subdivision, sir, have this?

I have seen one that's right across the next street. I don't remember the exact name of the street, but I can actually, from my front yard, when I look south, I can see one in their backyard.

Their hedges aren't tall enough to block it.

I don't I don't believe so. I don't believe Now that's on their backyard. Right? So from my front, that's a backyard. I believe they may or may not have a pool. Yeah. I haven't

seen it.

As we mentioned, we gave two years for the hedges too. So probably just waiting on that.

Yeah. And

what is staff recommendation? We

just recommended that if it were to be approved with the hedging from six to eight foot to be running down as as you can see in the picture, also from the right of way and and for the neighbors as well.

So would be can you go back to the picture right before?

Yes. So

that one that you see in the bull top left and then the on the right, that fencing part that you see, so that will be covered with hedges?

Correct. From the street view? Is that what you recall? Yes.

Yeah. And what would be behind the pergola?

Behind the pergola, it's just grass right now. We have a fence. It's a lake. We have a lake.

We have a lake in the back.

Okay. I'm sorry. The white fence beside the home, you're you have a neighbor.

Yes. And your neighbor's aware of this proposal?

Yes. They are. How do they feel about it? We've we've been there for so many years. They were happy for them. He was like, yeah. Go ahead.

Will there be are is that one of the sides, that fence there where shrubs are gonna be or no?

You're talking about the

white fence top left? Like where she's talking about the neighbors?

Yes.

That's where you were showing in the other picture where shrubbery will be. Right?

Correct.

Oh, so there will be shrubbery up against the white fence.

Yes. If you can see, I marked it in green on the survey Yeah. Where it says six foot hedge.

And across the back behind that pergola, are there going to be shrubs?

No. We're not requiring them. No. It's just a, like, a water view.

And what's on the other side of the lake?

Other residential residential, like another road, but it's it's pretty good distance.

Quite a bit of distance

Okay. On the other side. So, alright, I see this is a good picture. So on the other side of the lake, there aren't any other backyards that are facing your are are there any other backyards on the other side of the lake that is facing your property?

Yes. Yes.

Of course. There are there

are properties. And that is also the Isles Of Wellington there? Yes.

That is also Isles Of Wellington.

And I just want to clarify because I heard 20 by 24. It's 14 by 14 feet by 24 feet, correct?

That's right. Three thirty six square feet.

Okay. How many square feet?

Three thirty six, 24, 14.

Anybody else?

Yeah. Just a question. So, the house next to you to the left with the pool and the patio, It's a pool. Correct?

That's not a pool. It's just a patio.

Patio. Okay. So it's I mean, it's an outdoor space similar to yours except yours is a roofed outdoor space, unroofed outdoor space. They don't have hedges or they have hedges?

They have hedges. Okay.

Well, the the plan's not exactly like,

tall, but they're short.

The one on this side.

Oh, on the left side. Okay. They do have hedges. Yes. Okay.

And there

are six to eight feet on theirs as well?

Yes. Yes.

Okay. So my my perspective, I look at it like this. You know, people have entertainment placed in in the backyard. A lot of people have swimming pools that are not caged or screened. Other than your roofline, which is still lower than the height of the house, to me, I don't see it being any more disruptive to anyone else than having a backyard pool. So my perspective is I try to be reasonable and not to be, you know, authoritarian about these kind of things. If it's in the front and some wacky color and everyone can see it, that's that's a big difference. But if you have eight foot hedges, you're really not gonna see much. Okay? And the sound thing as well, I'm sure if you're blasting music, your HOA will complain anyway. So that's already intrinsically there.

Yeah.

So my perspective, I would approve this as being a reasonable thing for our neighbors and our citizens of our village. I

I I agree with you. I I'm, you know, being on my board for many many years, I I don't know if how board would have approved this type of structure. As a matter of fact, I I doubt it. But considering that the aisles of Wellington have already looked at this and they're the ones Yeah.

Exactly. They're gonna be

that it. They'll, you know, they'll be the ones that would have to deal if there were any

Right. And the HOA Right.

If there were any rapid cut. I was I'm always concerned with other homes having to

having to I mean, there's people that, you know, want 25 foot towers and can't Right. Do

And and apparently, this this this will be shielded from other homeowners. And I'm sure if all the homeowners would be

It's it's probably lower in height than a screened in pool.

Right. Probably.

And no one's complaining about the screen in. Right.

So I'm with you.

Any other comments by the board? Okay.

Thank you.

I'll motion to open to the public. Does anybody in the public have anything to say? Comments, questions? Hearing none, I'll close that motion. Any further discussion by the board? Would anyone like to make a motion?

I have a motion to approve, what is the number here? ARB, 365. Petition number. Petition 365, correct? No. Oh, sorry. Petition 2020Five-sixteen- ARB 11667ManateeBayLaneAlternativeDesign.

Per staff's recommendations?

Per staff's Okay.

You.

I'll second Stacy.

Thank you. Any objections to the motion? All those in favor say aye.

Aye.

All opposed? Hearing none, motion carries. Thank you.

Thank you for coming. Congratulations.

Next we have ARB Dash367 petition number 2025Dash0018DashARB1789PiersideCircleAlternativeDesign.

Before I start, am I able to hand you guys this packet that the homeowner made? Sure. Sure. It just it's a really cute packet.

Some of the pictures were included in your staff report, but these are sometimes they get

a little orange.

Okay. Thank you. Cool. We can pass

them down.

It's like scrapbooking.

Yes. How cute. But, again, my name is Jonathan Sandoval. I am presenting to you petition 2025Dash What? 0018DashARB at 1789 Pierside Circle.

Okay. I did it again. Sorry.

Oh, so you put it yeah.

Sorry. No. They when they test

it, they go to the end,

I guess. Sorry. The owner is Fredrick Caban. The property sits on 0.11 acres of land within the Wellington Lake subdivision. The request of approval is for an alternative material for an eight by twenty and five by five foot transparent corrugated flat roof that does not match the design of the principal structure.

Some background on the property. It was purchased by the owner back in 2020 consisting of a single family residence originally built in 1999. The owner did apply for a building permit for the pergolas, though it was returned due to the transparent roof cover not being an approved material. The images that you see above are of the existing conditions. Each image is labeled with a perspective from the front and rear of the property, also the pergola with the alternative material itself.

Next are some additional photos of the existing conditions and representation of the proposed alternative material. Just to note, this is not an actual photo of the structure simply a representation and I'm referring to the picture to the right. Now being shown is a proposed location of the pergola on a survey. The image of the right displays a simple version with two pergolas being circled in red. The analysis from staff is that the proposed pergola will not be imposing upon the neighborhood as Occlusion hedge was recently planted on the rear of the property and the pergola meets all setbacks.

Also, due to the design of the flat roof structure, the transparent alternative material is screened from Wellington Lakes Boulevard. The condition of approval include hedge on the rear of the property to be maintained at six to eight feet to maximize screening, ARB approval for any modification regarding the size and or design changes and to pass the required inspections to attain a building permit. That is offers 1789 Peerside Circle.

Thank you.

Thank you. Is there someone from the home here?

Yes. Miss.

Hi. How are you?

Good evening. Good evening. Fine. I'm. I'm the owner of this house. And I'm trying to request the approval of this percolors because

Can you

just state your name for us?

Tricia Caban.

Thank you.

So the pericolas are very pretty. Everybody who the neighbors, they walk around. They have seen nothing like that in any place there. It's the only beautiful one, I would say, because there is others, but they're old. And the roof of this pergola is almost invisible from outside because of the front of the pergola is wood.

And the wood is painted almost at a house. So the colors of the pergola match with the house in there, and it looks very pretty. And like I said, the roof is very important because it's not a big pergola, it's not wide, but we sit down outside and we feel so good in there. And I'm an older person and I just sit down with my doggies in there having some coffee or tea.

Thank you.

Is this a change just to the roof of the structure?

Just just the material. Just the just the approval material for the Right.

That's a clear plexiglass, and they're going to a No. That's not No. No. That They're going to

a clear It was, like, after the fact.

Yes. They applied for a building permit, and it was returned because of the material. Mhmm. So it was installed without a permit, and then she was able to get she paid for engineer drawings, so she paid an engineer to make the drawings. And then when she submitted for the building permit, it was returned for corrections because of the material.

The material of just the

Of just the roof.

The roof. Yes.

Mhmm. Okay. Basically, it was completely put up

Yep. And then

needed to get permits, then that was returned because of the roof that was on there. And now it's asking for us to approve the roof that's already there.

How do they inspect the columns of a structure that's already been the footings? Anybody know that answer?

How they how do they approve this?

Like, how how do they inspect the footings? I

do not know.

I do not know works. Yeah.

Don't know how that works.

That wouldn't have anything to do.

I'm just nervous. Yeah.

If the footing is not correct and the pillars fall the roof goes down with it.

Right. But that's I guess

that's some allowable They've approved the permit and everything else. The only issue outstanding is just the roof. Yeah. So they've already gone through that process.

Okay. They'll go do their final inspections Okay. You know, if the permit gets approved.

Just a question about the roof. I'm not familiar with the code for plexiglass, but is there like some kind of a wind rating or something in there? Just so it doesn't fly off like panels that

Well, they she did get engineer drawings for the roof. So the building department is required to review all of that requirements, making sure it meets code, building code, wind load, all that stuff. And then we just look at the architectural design of it. So I am not versed in all that. But, yeah.

So I'm not one to like to approve a lot of exceptions, But when I was driving by the roof, I couldn't see it. It wasn't and and I was in a tall pickup truck. I imagine if you're walking, you wouldn't see it. It's not like an obtrusive difference of what we normally see with pergolas.

Was there a structure already there and you replaced it or you just put it up?

Was there a structure there? I didn't see one on the aerials.

Is it was a structure?

Yeah. A structure. Was no structure. No. And you replaced it or you just had the idea to put it up and we did it without permit?

They did it without

yes. Correct.

Now the structure can be there. It meets setbacks.

Right.

It's all about just the roof. The roof material.

She met the requirements.

So she could just replace the roof material but that means that she would have to get new engineer drawings because I'm not sure those

And I don't have the money. Yes. I'm leaving one. Everybody should

be happy.

Can't hear one.

Yes. Yes. No. Was one family.

It was

a group.

Yeah.

Can you send the pictures back?

You could have that one. Okay.

Now just as, like, before she applied, I looked at the building permit and I was and I told her, I said, you know, you're gonna have to change out the roof material. But then she brought in pictures. And then the pictures obviously didn't do like, the engineer drawings didn't do it justice, and it looks completely different than what the drawings actually looked like because you couldn't really see the the corrugated clear material.

Right. Because the picture in the top right corner, I just had a double look twice because I don't see it as much here from the aerial view.

So once that roof is is completed, she has to pass a final inspection. Yeah.

When she gets the building permit issued, then they'll go out and do the inspection. And then if they have to make any changes, then she's gonna have to coordinate with whoever put it up to make the changes that need to be made. But

And staff is okay with the proposed roof, the material of the proposed roof?

Yeah. Like I said, at first, I was like, oh, no. You need to put you need to get the insulated aluminum just like everybody else has. And but then when she showed me pictures, I was like, okay. I think I think it looks much better than what I thought it was gonna look like. So I think it because the pergola is the same color as the trim, you can't even tell that.

Right. Right. You you can't.

So once I saw the pictures I changed I I changed my mind.

Basically it's already done but it can't move further towards building.

Right. Right.

It just depends on what happens here with

the roof.

It's the proposal is for just the

Mhmm. Any other comments? Thank you.

Thank you.

I'll motion to open to the public. Anybody here have any comments or questions? Hearing no comments from the public, I'll close the motion. Any discussion? Okay. Would someone like to make a motion?

We'll be by for tea.

Moving on, continuing with new business, ARBDash366. Night. Night. Bye bye. Petition number 2025Dash0013DashARB, arcade time at Wellington Green.

Good evening again. My name is John Sandoval, planner here for the Village of Wellington. I'm presenting you petition 2025Dash0013DashARB at arcade time at the Wellington Green

have a seat in

my Then

we'll we'll catch up there. That'll Thank you.

It's gonna

be supportive. I know.

Thank you. The tenant is r k time USA LLC. The property sits on MUPDG within the the the Wellington Green Mall. The request of approval is for a wall sign with a technical deviation of 54 inches regarding the height. The location, again, is within MUPDG at the Wellington Green Mall.

The red star on the map signifies where the subject tenant space is located. Units 122 And 123 to be precise. The following shows the requirements for a primary wall sign with a maximum height for a major tenant to be 66 inches. The primary wall sign being set at 120 inches, the deviation will there'll be a 54 it'll be a 54 inch difference. Now, being presented is a proposed channel letter type sign with the three d model and reference to the push through letters.

Next

is the primary wall sign data showing the standards what is being allowed and requested along with the deviation itself. The conditions of approval of course line with the land development regulations and will be will be provided if the ARB votes to approve the the applicant's request. These conditions include consistency with the approved standard per the primary facade length of a 102 feet, permit approval being required prior to construction or installation of the sign, and that it shall be cabinet with push through channel letters mounted to the wall. Next, we move on to exhibit a of the sign focusing on the front plane and the proposed placement of the sign on the outer building. That'll be all for arcade time at Wellington Green Mall.

Thank you.

Thank you.

She'd like to come up. Good

evening, everyone.

And just real quick, Kelly, he wasn't here when you swore in. He needs to be sworn in.

Can you raise your hand? Do you swear to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth?

I do. Thank you.

You're so nice. What's name? Jonathan Damar. Hi. Hello, everyone. Is

anything you'd like to share or comment?

No. I'm just very, very proud to serve the community. We've been inside the mall at Wellington Green for a little over two years now. And I I think the community has been very receptive to the way we operate, and we're proud to provide premier premium entertainment and dining. So we're very we're very anxious and enthusiastic and eager to go ahead and then open up our our dining element to our entertainment concept that's already preexisting inside of Mall at Wellington Green. And we feel it was very crucial for us to go a little bit outside the norm for our exterior signage because we're so far off the beaten path. We just wanna go ahead and then have as much visibility as possible to showcase the type of investment we're putting inside the location.

Thank you.

How much higher than the the regulations are they they going with the sign? Yeah. I was trying to

The deviation itself is 54 inches.

An additional 54 inches.

Correct. It is set at 120 inches, and the the max allowed is 100 and sorry. It's 66. It's just 66 inches.

Can I ask, will all the letters be pushed out? They're all gonna be three-dimensional in a way?

Gonna be sat on the cabinet and then just pushed through. Yeah. All the letters sit on one cabinet.

It is a three-dimensional sign.

The whole thing is three-dimensional?

Yes. Yes.

And do you already occupy that particular space?

Not that

one. You're on

the 2nd Floor.

2nd Floor. Correct. Yes. This will be an exterior

garage.

Frontage. This is the old Ford's garage, and we also took the Mediterranean plate and a storage unit that the mall housed. So all three units together would be combined for Arcade Temp Entertainment's new property.

Okay. Oh, so this sign is in that as you drive into the

food court. Yes. Absolutely. So it's gonna be in the outside the Pointe Verde Food Court, which is already very gorgeous.

Yeah. Okay. Now I understand.

Right. I was trying to figure out also where

Where the exterior Ford's garage entrance was. So it's it's positioned right above the double doors for our entrance outside of mall hours of operation.

You mean the 2nd Floor or the 1st Floor?

That would be the 1st Floor. Oh. Where we currently are right now is in the 2nd Floor next to the Macy's.

Right.

Alright. So I'm looking at this picture here. So you're asking for the height because otherwise, the

sign is too low. Correct. You just you just wouldn't

be visible from the road. This picture here

is Yeah. It's a very, very large parking lot. It has a lot of cars. So for us to go ahead and maintain that visibility, it's, we felt it would to be crucial, and hopefully you guys do as well.

So was there a sign for there was no sign for Fords. Right?

There was, and it was That's insane. Incredibly large as well. I mean, I would

imagine Same location?

Or Exact same location. Correct.

So you would be moving what's upstairs, downstairs, and then opening a restaurant with it that's

That's correct. Yes. Our newer concepts, they actually have, full food and beverage. It's a elevated beverage experience. This is not traditional arcade food. It's filet mignon, ahi tuna steak, salmon. It's a very premium elevated menu. Our last location we opened up was inside of the Falls Mall inside Miami, which has been proven to be an incredible successful endeavor. It's done wonders for the mall at The Falls as well.

I have no doubt. Anybody else? Maria?

Thank you.

Thank you so much for the time.

Thank Thank you for coming.

Thank you Jonathan.

I make a motion to open to the public. Anybody in the public like to share any comments, ask questions? Hearing no comments from the public, I'll close the motion. Any further board discussion? Would anyone like to make a motion?

I'll make a motion to approve ARBDash366 petition number 2025Dash0013, arcade time at Wellington, ring as per staff's recommendation.

Staff's recommend, just really quick, staff's recommendation is to approve what they're asking for.

The height deviation. Correct.

Okay. Just making sure.

The letters. A second.

The height deviation.

The height of the letters.

Of the sign itself.

The entire sign.

The entire sign.

Yes. With the sizes. Do we have a second?

I second. Any

objections to the motion? All in favor say aye. Aye. Any opposed? Hearing none, the motion carries.

Thank you.

Thank you. Have a good evening. Good

luck.

Good luck.

My picture of my child will be there waiting.

Video games.

I didn't know we had an arcade in there. I never knew we had an arcade in there.

Okay. So continuing new business, ARBDash361. Petition number 2025Dash0015DashARB. LA Medical Wellington in Eorizo. Eorizo. Thank

you.

Petition number 2025Dash0015DashARB, which I would like to officially enter into the record. The agent Troy Holloway is here on behalf of LA Medical and they're requesting approval of exterior elevations and color materials for the covered roof structure on the existing building within the east section of the Irozio project. Irrizo, you don't really know it as Irrizo, know it as the Cheddar's Building. Yes. It's located one mile north of Forest Hill.

It's at the old Cheddar's restaurant which closed. And in the rear is going to be a storage facility and in the front it will be LA Medical. And they're requesting to add a covered roof structure to the existing building. I'm not sure if you're familiar with Cheddar's. They have like an open air porch pergola thing on the side. So they're requesting to cover that with a solid roof. And again, that's on the south portion of the property. It's clouded on there. It says open air porch system. These are the approved elevations back in 2011 for Cheddar's.

The system is to the left, on the top picture it would be to the left. It's not shown here, the pergola is not shown here. And also just focus on the two roof materials that they have. They had like a Florida room when you walked into the right and it had a different roof material. It's a metal roof on top.

And so the applicant is requesting to install a solid roof over that pergola area that was there and matching with tile. Staff is recommending that the addition of roof will be metal to kind of balance out the elevation. And here also it just shows the different metals, metal roofs that are shown. It shows the roof that they're proposing on the left side and then he has a recommendation of the metal roof on that just to kind of balance it because there are metal features throughout the building.

Will the space remain open?

Yes. Mhmm. So staff recommends approval of petition 2025Dash15 dash ARB. However, they are recommending that the tile roof be the existing metal that's already used throughout the property or throughout the building.

Can you go to the previous slide? Yeah. Let's get So where was the tile roof that you're now

So the tile roof says it's bordered out. It says recommended metal roof. It's to the left. You see that there's they have like a fenced in outdoor porch area out there and so we're recommending it be the same metal roof that's already Not tile. Mhmm. Okay. Thank you. Just to kind of match the other side.

Because right now it's a pergola stool. Mhmm. Right?

Thank you.

And Troy is here. He has a PowerPoint.

Good evening. My name is Troy Holloway. I'm with two g h o. We're here on behalf of LA Medical Associates. Sorry about my voice. It's a little little rough tonight.

Cheering college football.

Do I just touch this? How do I make it go?

Oh, the arrow down. I'm sorry.

Oh, just the arrow down here? Okay. Got it. As Kelly mentioned, we're here tonight seeking approval to replace an old weathered wooden trellis structure which has since been removed which was situated over an existing outdoor patio with a more permanent durable and architecturally compatible roof structure. This is a subject site she just kinda showed you really quickly.

It is surrounded to the east side there at 441. You have the shops at Isle Of Verde. To the south, we have the the Wellington Reserve Commercial Center, We do have that future storage facility to the west behind the facility that has been approved, not under construction yet. And then we have the Black Diamond Residential, which is kind of the North Northwest there. This is a little closer shot of the building.

This is kinda looking at the South side. And this is the area of the proposed improvements where the patio is today. Just a quick history that this project was annexed into Wellington back in 2003. They had a master plan amendment approved to allow for the eight eight hundred square foot which is the Cheddar's, which it was, the eight eight hundred square foot of Cheddar's. It was also approved for a 20,000 square foot two story medical office building for phase two, which was never completed.

In 2023, the master plan amendment was approved to replace the undeveloped medical office building with the self storage. And then in 2024, a master plan amendment was approved to change the 8,800 square foot Cheddar's into medical office building. These are some existing building conditions for the most part. The top left picture there is east elevation facing 441, and then we on the top right is kind of the northeast corner of the building, which you can kind of see the the little the the metal the metal roofed area that's the addition that the on the north side. And the south side, that's this is kind of the south east corner of the building, but that's looking at the the covered patio, kinda so you're looking at the east.

You're kinda looking directly west at the covered patio area, which is the the old wood trellis. These are some of some shots of the wood trellis before it was removed. It it it was it was starting to rot. It was starting to it was getting old. And then of course on the top of the wooden trellis itself, they had some corrugated plastic panels which were very unsafe.

They were getting faded and falling apart, so it was time to to get rid of that wood structure. So this is the covered, proposed covered patio area and and the proposed roof structure itself. This structure will be so much better. It'll it'll provide a protected area for staff lunches and breaks they can use on a daily basis. They can have healthcare nutrition classes outside.

It's also good for exercise and stretching classes that they'll have for the employees and also an open area for special events that they do have now and then. This is a rendering which Kelly had put up there, but as you can see, their intent is to provide a structure that matches the building itself. You can see on the far right that does the metal roof on the far right. And we do have some metal awnings in the front of the building itself. But this is the proposed mansour roof structure over the patio.

Again, the intent is to match the tile and the color of the building to make it more compatible. We have the existing roof tile. We do have some metal brown awnings in the front as well. And this is the elevation view of the south side, again, with just the tile mansard roof, again matching the the building itself. The columns would be stucco finished to match the building with the same stucco and color as the building as well.

And then behind that you've got the existing tile roof you can see from behind. In conclusion, it is the old wooden trellis structure was not visually appealing. It posed a risk to public safety particularly during storm events. The proposed roof structure will now appear to be part of the building architecturally compatible with in colors, materials, finishes, character, mass, scale of the existing building. The proposed modification will provide a more protected, usable, and functional outdoor space for the medical staff and their patients.

The new structure will meet all building code requirements making it structurally sound with no more safety concerns. We do agree with all conditions of approval with the exception of, I guess we're looking for the tile, we just think it's more compatible. The owner thinks the metal would make it look more like a garage of addition. But obviously, we'll go with whatever you all decide. Thank you. Happy to answer any questions.

Thank you. Questions?

You're saying I you it says here existing roof tile, right? Do you have that existing roof tile for the other square footage if you were to get the tile? The exact tile. Who's that? There's another person back there.

Oh, okay. If you're gonna answer, we just need you to come up and then because this is also on TV, so you have to talk at the microphone and give your name, please.

Hi. I'm Mike Lee, and I represent LA Medical. Thank you. We had our contractor, our GC, see if he was able to obtain and acquire the existing tile that's out there, and he was able to do so.

How old is the roof that's currently on the building, the tile roof?

So the flat roof, we we just replaced, which you can't see. We just redid that. And this tile, I'm gonna say eleven years, ten years.

How old is this structure?

Bill was approved in 2011. So, yeah, like eleven years.

Yeah.

I was only asking thinking about like different colors. Like if you've got that on there and you get the same tile that is what was there, now you've got two different shades of the tile.

That was

the only reason why I was asking how old that was.

Mhmm. Well, you're still gonna have 11 from it's never gonna match. I mean, sun and deterioration over it. Staff.

Why?

Why we're requesting

Why metal? Yes.

Because we just feel that the the use of the metal will break up the building a little bit more. And on the right side of the building, they already have that metal. So we thought that would be a better transition.

Looks to me that right side is much much smaller than the left side is that. Correct?

Mhmm. What is the the length though? It may be narrow, but that sunroom did occupy the full length of the restaurant.

No it did not ma'am.

It did not?

No. It only went as far as the width of the dining room.

Width of the dining room.

Was that in feet? Like twenty, thirty feet something like that?

Oh I wish I knew it. Probably maybe thirty,

forty feet,

50 feet. Here's a site plan if you wanna just press that round button right there.

Oh, press. Okay.

There you go. So there are no dimensions on here, but

it's But, like, 60%

width building.

And then this is the porch.

Okay, but it's almost equal to the same width.

No, lengthwise, yes, widthwise though.

With length, there's a I've been there plenty of times. I could understand the balance now of each side running that side portion.

You guys don't have a problem with the metal?

At the end of the day, we're gonna get whatever you recommend. We just looked at it. We just looked at it and thought

You said you guys

when it was up, it would we were afraid it was gonna look somewhat like a camper garage with a metal roof being that it was much wider than the other side. But at the end of the day, we'll we'll defer to the experts in the village. Okay.

Good answer.

Very good.

Can we pull up that the the the photo again, that original photo. No. The, the actual photo of the

Oh, he

is. Press

on it. Number seven slide? Yeah. Press the

button. Was

there an aerial view at all? We don't have an aerial.

Heads. He

had one in their presentation.

This one here. Yeah. You can you can see the on the north side.

Alright. I could see the You can see the on the other side much much better.

Right. I agree.

Okay. I could see the recommendation Mhmm. Going to my face. That that photo gives it a better picture.

Any other comments or questions?

Just think how long metal will last. You won't have Absolutely.

It's okay. We were just presenting it and we were hoping I know. But we we certainly understand and we thank you for your time.

Absolutely. Thank you.

Thank you.

Motion to open to the public. Got anything to say, Rich? Nope. Hearing no comments from the public, close the motion. Any further discussion from anyone on the board?

Thank you.

Anyone like to make a motion?

I'll make a motion to approve ARB three sixty one petition number 2025015. ARB LA Medical Wellington at

what is it? Arosia? Arosia. I

should know how to say that. Per staff recommendation as a metal roof. I'll second that.

Any objections to the motion? All in favor say aye. Aye. Any opposed? Hearing none, motion carries.

Thank you.

Good luck. Good luck, gentlemen.

Good evening.

When you see it from the area, it makes sense.

Mhmm. Mhmm.

Continuing with new business. ARB dash three six two. Petition number 2025Dash0017Dash ARB Lotus two daycare signage. Oh, almost pressed that button.

There you go. Okay. Kids are Kids Daycare, Building 2 in Lotus Wellington 2, petition 2020Five-seventeen ARB, which I would like to officially enter into the record. The applicant is requesting ARB approval of the wall signs for the daycare building proposed at Lotus Wellington two. Wellington Lotus 2 is located one mile north of Forest Hill Boulevard.

It's a 52 acre mixed use project. And the daycare building is the first building within the Lotus 2 project approved by ARB, and it was approved on 10/28/2024. They are requesting two wall signs on the north and east facade both the same size. So here are just the elevations showing the two signs. The north facade is facing the main drive into Lotus 2 and the east facade is facing, 441.

Back in 2024, they were the wall signs were approved, however, they decided to change what they are requesting. They did have a wall sign on on the south elevation so the signs shifted. So they no longer have a sign on the south elevation, it's now on the north facing the main drive and they're requesting instead of the medallion on the east side, they want a sign that is the same size as the one on the north. Okay. So they're changing the location of the sign to be on the main Lotus Drive that comes in and then they're requesting a sign taking away that medallion and putting in the same sized sign.

Facing Forest Town.

Facing 441. Mhmm. No other changes are requested other than a deviation to allow two principal wall signs or a secondary wall sign that's the same size as the principal wall sign.

The principal is which one, the north or the east?

It is the north. No the east, I'm sorry, the east. Sorry, the east.

And how big is the sign?

85 square feet.

Oh, page five.

So it's within the requirements, it's just the deviation is for it to be the same size as the principal because it's supposed to be half of the size of the principal. And so yeah, so there is a deviation for the square square feet and the height of the secondary wall sign but there is no deviation for the principal wall sign, if that makes sense. The principal wall sign is actually pretty much half of what sign area could be. Yep. Together they're going over 20 square feet.

May I ask a question? On that either on the 441 or the Lotus Drive Mhmm. How many other businesses are located in there that are also going to want to put their signs up.

And that's in that spot on that side of the thing, it's just that one. Right?

It's just that one on the corner.

It's just that one building.

On As soon as you drive in

Lotus Lotus two is mostly residential in the rear. So there's just yeah. So there's just one other commercial portion of it to the north of it. But then that will be all on a case by case basis. This is a single tenant. So there's only one tenant in this building.

Thank you. Mhmm.

Just to confirm

In the bottom right of this picture.

Oops.

See where the star It's just that one building there.

Okay.

And there is a building to the north and that completes Lotus two commercial portion of it, then the rest is residential. So you really won't have many asks for signage for this Okay. So this is just going over the size that they're requesting a secondary wall sign, that's 85 square feet, 60 inches in height, 17 feet in length. And staff recommends approval of twenty twenty five dash zero zero one seven dash a or b with the conditions listed in the staff report. And then I mister Castor is here.

He'd like to add anything.

You got it?

Yeah. Okay.
