1820 Landing Drive
Suite E
Sanford, Florida 32771-7935
Applicant: Miller Construction Services, LLC, a Florida limited
liability company.
8241 Via Bonita
Sanford, Florida 32771-9728
Project: Approval of the HPB to construct a single-family, single -story home, 2,692
square feet in size, with a breezeway, and an attached garage, 592 square feet in size,
with regard to property located at 1205 Palmetto Avenue.
Requested Development Approval: The Applicant requested approval of the HPB
to construct a single-family, single -story home, 2,692 square feet in size, with a
I I P a g e
connecting breezeway, 385 square feet in size, and an attached garage, 592 square
feet in size, with regard to property located at 1205 Palmetto Avenue .

Sanford Residential Historic District.

contributing structures on the 1200 block of Palmetto Avenue are built on varied size
lots and are modest single -story bungalows and frame vernacular "cottages" with the
following total square footages and percentages of open space:

While the scale and massing of the proposed structures are similar to new construction
and historic properties in the residential historic district, the proposed project is
significantly larger than the adjacent historic buildings and other houses on this block.
The design somewhat compensates with varied roof heights, and although the
breezeway attaches the house to the garage, the garage is located 10' from the primary
structure and still appears as an outbuilding. The architectural elements of the
proposed house and garage are similar to the contributing structures in the historic
district. The foundation is proposed to be raised and the house and garage do not
exceed 35' in height. The proposed new construction is compatible with the material,
2 1 P a g e
and character of the property, neighborhood and immediate environment, but the scale
and massing of the proposed structures will set it apart from those immediately
surrounding homes. The proposed wall cladding is fiber cement lap siding with cement
shaker lap and cement board and batten trim, and stucco at the foundation level. The
cement board trim at corners and around openings will not exceed 6'. Lower front
porch columns are covered with a brick veneer. The applicant has proposed gable and
shed roofs with architectural shingles that will comply with the standards of Schedule
"S" of the City's Land Development Regulations (LDRs).
A traditional fenestration pattern is not necessary for new construction to be compatible
with historic properties, but this design includes s a combination of windows of various
sizes and orientations. The large, divided window on the front fagade appear as a
1950s era picture window and is not appropriate to the more bungalow -like style of
house. It is not clear in the drawings if the paired windows are separated by a properly
sized trim piece. The application references vinyl, 1/1 lite windows, but has not
submitted details for the proposed windows and doors.
(a). Pursuant to Section 8.0 of Schedule "S" of the City's LDRs, the HPB has
