Technical Review Committee conditionally approves Sulttera development to director pending resubmittal
Summary
Walton County technical staff recommended conditional approval for a five-unit attached-residential project on East County Highway 30A after the applicant addressed stormwater and other comments; the committee moved the development order to the director pending resolution of outstanding technical reviews.
County planners and the applicant outlined a conditional approval Wednesday for a proposed five-unit attached-residential project known as the Sulttera development on East County Highway 30A. Staff said the application, submitted as MIN26-000040 by Clifford/Ner (engineering) on behalf of Maverick 5 Development LLC, requires outstanding reviews from fire, engineering and GIS but otherwise met the technical standards for development order consideration.
Bob (staff) told the Technical Review Committee that the project is a major development order application for three single-family attached units and one duplex on roughly 0.79 acres in District 5. He noted a director's determination applies to the parcel and that applicant resubmitted plans addressing many prior comments.
Applicant representative Cliff Ner said the team moved stormwater systems out from under the structure and redesigned the drainage as an exfiltration system, providing at least the same — and in some cases more — storage capacity. Ner clarified that floor-area-ratio limits cited in the staff packet apply to nonresidential buildings; residential projects are regulated by setbacks and impervious-surface limits. He told the committee he had uploaded revised plans the prior Friday and expects to resolve remaining comments.
Committee members pressed the applicant on details of an accessible parking space. The applicant explained the space in question is a bus-accessible ADA stall designed for vehicles with lifts; he agreed to clarify the civil drawings and label the stall accordingly. Staff also flagged missing road names in GIS and the need for fire review before final issuance.
After discussion, staff moved a recommended motion to conditionally approve the development order pending successful resubmittal and to forward the application to the planning director for approval. The committee voted to conditionally approve and advance the item, with final issuance contingent on resolution of outstanding technical comments.
The director will receive the development order for final administrative action once engineering, fire and GIS comments are resolved and revised plans are accepted.
