Department Recommendation: The Community Development Department recommends approval of the text amendment as discussed below. Executive Summary: At its April 27, 2015 City Council Meeting, the Council approved the proposed definition of Equine Garment Fabrication pursuant to RZ15-09 and allowed the use by “right” within the AG- 1 district up to 2,000 square feet pursuant to RZ15-07. Further, the City Council recommended that the use permit be deferred to the June 15, 2015 City Council meeting to allow time for Staff to amend the use permit to remain in the zoning ordinance and to require a use permit when an Equine Garment Fabrication building exceeds 2,000 square feet. Staff has amended the use permit to be consistent with the Council’s proposal. Additionally, the proposed amendment was presented at the May 27, 2015 Planning Commission meeting for their review. The Commission unanimously voted to recommend denial of the proposed amendment to the use permit. The Commission voiced the same concerns as they had at the March 25, 2015 meeting discussed below. The Planning Commission at its March 25, 2015 meeting unanimously recommended that all of the three proposed text amendments related to Equine Garment Fabrication be denied. It was the opinion of the Planning Commission that Equine Garment Fabrication remains as a Use Permit and not be permitted by right under the AG-1 (Agricultural) district. They expressed their concern that the proposed amendments would allow noxious uses such as tanneries and retail shops that sold unrelated items on the premises. The Planning Commission also stated that text amendments should not be initiated just for one or two situations. 2 Funding and Fiscal Impact: None anticipated. Alternatives: The Mayor and City Council may choose to amend the proposed text amendments or not to approve it in its entirety.

Executive Summary: The Mayor and City Council voted unanimously to adopt the Arnold Mill Visioning Plan, an amendment to the 2030 Comprehensive Plan on July 7, 2014. The 2030 Comprehensive Plan identified the Arnold Mill Road as an area of limited development with mostly rural residential and agricultural uses. However, the community feedback identified it as an area that could potentially accommodate the development of limited non-residential uses at some point in the future. The 2030 Comprehensive Plan stated that Arnold Mill should avoid strip commercial development and should be clustered in sections along the roadway and emphasis should be placed on preserving open space, rural viewsheds, and protecting environmentally sensitive features. Further, the Plan stated that Transfer of Development Rights should be aggressively pursued following the adoption of a master plan before any commercial nodes are considered or allowed to develop so as to ensure the protection of the more rural areas in Milton. The Arnold Mill Visioning Plan was the basis in which the proposed Form Based Code (FBC) was created. The Arnold Mill FBC follows the same general template as the Crabapple and Deerfield Form Based Code, but has been tailored for the specific needs of the Arnold Mill Corridor. There are three primary transect zones, T2, T3, and T4. There is also a T4-open that permits additional uses than the T4 transect zone. Within the corridor, there are two primary activity nodes; the intersection of Arnold Mill and Cox Roads and the Arnold Mill Road and Chadwick Farm Blvd. The remainder of the Visioning area is T2 which is minimum one acre lots with the same development standards as the AG-1 zoning district without the ability to receive TDRs (although they can be sending sites for TDRs). 2 In the Arnold Mill Form Based Code, the T3 transect zone contemplates 2 units per acre by right and up to 5 units via TDRs. The T4 transect zone contemplates 3 units per acre by right and up to 6 units via TDRs. These densities have been increased by 1 unit per acre by right since the initial draft of the Form Based Code based on discussions with property owners primarily within the Cox Road activity node. Staff notes that at the May 27, 2015 Planning Commission Meeting, by a vote of 4 to 3, it was recommended that the densities for T3 and T4 transect zones are increased to be equal with the Crabapple Form Based Code which allows for 3 units per acre by right and up to 6 units per acre via TDRs in T3 and 5 units per acre by right and 9 units per acre via TDRs in T4. Funding and Fiscal Impact: None anticipated. Alternatives: The Mayor and City Council may approve the amendment as proposed and/or recommend further amendments to the text amendments discussed.

GENERAL 1.1 INTENT The intent and purpose of This Code is to enable and support the implementation of the following policies: a. That Arnold Mill is an important corridor for both high-quality development and preserved open space resources in the City of Milton as established in the Arnold Mill Visioning Study and the City of Milton 2030 Comprehensive Plan. b. That within Arnold Mill, ordinary activities of daily life should occur within walking or bicycling distance of most dwellings. c. That interconnected networks of thoroughfares should be designed to disperse traffic and reduce the length of automobile trips. d. That a range of housing options should be provided to accommodate different needs in the community. e. That development should be concentrated in areas served by existing infrastructure and discouraged in areas lacking it. f. That development patterns should enable children to walk or bicycle to school. g. That a range of open spaces including parks, squares, playgrounds, and preserved rural areas should be distributed throughout Arnold Mill. h. That buildings and landscaping should contribute to the physical definition of thoroughfares as civic places. i. That development should adequately accommodate automobiles while respecting the pedestrian and the spatial form of public areas. j. That community design should reinforce safe environments, but not at the expense of accessibility. k. That architecture and landscape design should grow from the local climate, topography, history, and building practices. l. That civic buildings and public gathering places should be provided as locations that reinforce community identity and support self-governance. m. That civic buildings should be distinctive and appropriate to a role more important than the other buildings that constitute the fabric of the area. n. That the preservation and renewal of historic buildings should be facilitated. o. That the harmonious and orderly growth of Arnold Mill should be secured through form-based codes rather than traditional zoning. 1.2 CODE APPLICABILITY 1.2.1 Capitalized terms used throughout This Code may be defined in Article 6 Definitions of Terms or Article 7 Architectural Styles. Article 6 contains regulatory language that is integral to This Code. Those terms not defined in Article 6 and Article 7 shall be accorded their commonly accepted meanings. In the event of conflicts between these definitions and those of Section 64-1 of this zoning ordinance, those of This Code shall take precedence when applied to the regulations found herein. 1.2.2 The metrics of Article 5 Standards and Tables are an integral part of This Code. However, the diagrams and illustrations that accompany them should be considered advisory, with the exception of those in Table 12 Definitions Illustrated, which are legally binding. 1.2.3 Where in conflict, numerical metrics shall take precedence over graphic metrics. 1.2.4. The provisions of This Code are intended to replace the previous requirements set forth in Chapter 64 of the Code of the City of Milton, unless otherwise indicated in This Code. ARNOLD MILL ROAD FORM-BASED CODE – DRAFT V3 City of Milton June 10, 2015 3 1.3 TRANSECT ZONES AND SPECIAL DISTRICTS 1.3.1 The regulations set forth in This Code shall apply to all property located within the boundaries identified in the Arnold Mill Regulating Plan adopted concurrently herewith, which shall be kept on file with the Community Development Department, and which is hereby incorporated by reference. The Arnold Mill Regulating Plan shall also be shown on the Official Zoning Maps of the City of Milton, Georgia. 1.3.2 To reflect a variety of development patterns This Code includes Transect Zones, Civic Zones, and Special Districts, the locations for which are set forth within the Arnold Mill Regulating Plan or an approved Infill Regulating Plan. 1.3.3 The standards for Transect Zones and Civic Zones shall be as set forth in Articles 3, 4, and 5 of This Code. 1.3.4 The standards for Transect Zone T4 shall also apply to zone T4-Open except as specifically indicated. 1.3.5 Areas that, by their intrinsic character, cannot conform to the requirements of any Transect Zone are designated as Special Districts. Special Districts shall be governed by standards approved by the Mayor and City Council at the time of their designation as Special Districts, which standards may be specifically prepared for the particular Special District or may be the same standards as described elsewhere in This Code if specifically identified by the Mayor and Council as being applied to the Special District, except as otherwise specifically identified in Article 3. 1.4 PROCESS 1.4.1 Projects that require no Variances or Warrants, or only Warrants, from the requirements of This Code shall be processed administratively without further recourse to public consultation except as established below for the city design review board or the historic preservation commission, as applicable as set forth by Section 64-1120 or Article XVIII of this zoning ordinance. 1.4.2 Except as established below for historic districts, the city design review board, as set forth in Section 64- 1120 of this zoning ordinance, shall review all plans for development except detached single-family residential in This District for compliance with the standards herein prior to the approval of a land disturbance permit, building permit, or demolition permit for both residential and nonresidential structures. 1.4.3 Except as established below for historic districts, the city design review board, as set forth in Section 64- 1120 of this zoning ordinance, shall review all plans for development except detached single-family residential in This District for compliance with the standards herein prior to the approval of a land disturbance permit, building permit, or demolition permit for both residential and nonresidential structures. 1.5 WARRANTS AND VARIANCES 1.5.1 There shall be two types of deviation from the requirements of This Code: Warrants and Variances. Whether a deviation requires a Warrant or Variance shall be determined by the community development director except where specifically prescribed in This Code. 1.5.2 A Warrant is a ruling that would permit a practice that is not consistent with a specific provision of This Code but is justified by its intent. A Warrant shall be processed as an administrative variance under Section 64 - 1885 by the community development director. 1.5.3 Warrants relating to a physical element or metric of This Code shall be based upon credible submitted evidence demonstrating that: a. Approval, if granted, would not offend the spirit or intent of This Code as set forth in Section 1.1 Intent; ARNOLD MILL ROAD FORM-BASED CODE – DRAFT V3 City of Milton June 10, 2015 4 b. There are such extraordinary and exceptional situations or conditions pertaining to the particular piece of property that the literal or strict application of This Code would create an unnecessary hardship due to size, shape or topography or other extraordinary and exceptional situations or conditions not caused by the applicant; c. Relief, if granted would not cause a substantial detriment to the public good and surrounding properties; and d. That the public safety, health and welfare are secured, and that substantial justice is done. 1.5.4 Warrants relating to a use shall be based upon the considerations for use permits established in Section 64- 1552. 1.5.5 A Variance is any ruling on a deviation other than a Warrant. A Variance shall be processed as a primary variance by the board of zoning appeals as described in Section 64-1888. 1.5.6 If a Warrant or Variance is requested in conjunction with an application for an Infill Regulating Plan, the mayor and city council shall process the requested warrants and variances as a concurrent variance. 1.5.7 With respect to the review of Variances, the city design review board shall only make recommendations. 1.5.8 No Warrants or Variances may be issued for the following standards and requirements: a. The minimum Base Densities. (See Table 10 section a.) b. The permission to build Accessory Buildings. 1.6 DENSITY CALCULATIONS 1.6.1 Density shall be expressed in building units per acre as specified by Transect Zone in Table 10 section a. 1.6.2 The maximum Density of a site shall be calculated by multiplying the Transect Zone's Density identified in Table 10 section a by the Gross Site Area.

Where a Thoroughfare or Civic Space adjoins multiple Transect Zones, their area shall be proportionally allocated to the adjoining zones. 1.6.3 Where a site is subdivided into lots, a lot's Density may exceed the Density of the Transect Zone within which it lies, provided that the maximum Density of the Transect Zone for the site as whole as established in Section 1.6.2 is not exceeded. 1.6.4 Building units shall be exchanged for Functions at the following rates as established in Table 8B: a. Residential: 1 dwelling unit for each building unit. b. Lodging: 2 guest rooms for each building unit. c. Office: 2,250 square feet for each building unit. d. Retail: 2,250 square feet for each building unit. e.

Is located within a Parking Structure having two or more above-ground stories, including the ground level. b. Is located within a Parking Structure having one or more below-ground stories. c. Is available for exclusive use by off-site Retail, Restaurant, Civic, or Office Functions within a straight- line radius of 600 horizontal feet from the parking space to the public entrance of the establishment. Parking spaces meeting two or more of the above conditions shall only be considered as meeting one condition for the purpose of the Building Unit bonus. 1.6.11 The Base Density of a site may be increased by the Transfer of Development Rights (TDR) up to the amount specified for each zone by Table 10 section a subject to the provisions of Section 1.7 1.7 TRANSFER OF DEVELOPMENT RIGHTS 1.7.1 Purpose: The TDR mechanism is intended to encourage the voluntary redirection of future growth from areas where Milton wants reduced development into areas designated for development. Landowners can voluntarily choose to have their properties considered as either Open Space TDR Sending Sites or Park/Greenway TDR Sending Sites. Open Space TDR Sending Sites remain under private ownership subject to a conservation easement permanently limiting future development. Park/Greenway TDR Sending Sites are transferred from private ownership to the City of Milton or otherwise secured for public access in a manner acceptable to the City. In return for voluntarily participating in the TDR program, private property owners receive TDRs which can be transferred for use at designated TDR Receiving Sites. 1.7.2 TDR Sending Site Criteria a. Open Space TDR Sending Sites shall be a minimum of 5 acres in size, shall be zoned T2 within This District or AG-1 outside of This District and shall contain natural or agricultural features whose retention would implement Milton's goals for maintaining significant environmental areas, rural character and open space. Parcels shall not qualify if the restrictions that would be imposed by a conservation easement have already been established by a preexisting easement or similar instrument. b. Park/Greenway TDR Sending Sites shall be a minimum of one acre in size, unoccupied by any residences or other improvements that would render the site unusable for public access and shall be designated as suitable for Park, Greenway, Civic Space, trail or other public recreational uses in a plan or code adopted by the City. Parcels in public ownership prior to the effective date of This Code shall not qualify as TDR Sending Sites. However, parcels that the City buys for Parks and Greenways after the effective date of This Code meet the criteria for Park/Greenway TDR Sending sites. 1.7.3 TDR Sending Site Approval Process a. Open Space TDR Sending Sites: Property owners may offer their land as Open Space TDR Sending Sites using application forms provided by the community development department. If the community development director finds that the proposed property meets the criteria, he/she shall approve the application and oversee the execution and recordation of a permanent conservation easement, approved by the community development director, that limits future development of the sending site to a density of no more than one dwelling per parcel or one dwelling per full 25 acres, whichever Density is greater. The easement shall specify that all other uses, building requirements and activities shall be controlled by the provisions of the T2 zone for parcels within This District and the provisions of the AG-1 zoning district for parcels outside of This District. b. Park/Greenway TDR Sending Sites: Property owners may offer their land as Park/G reenway TDR Sending Sites using application forms provided by the community development department. If the property owner proposes to transfer title to Milton, the change of ownership shall pertain to the entire ARNOLD MILL ROAD FORM-BASED CODE – DRAFT V3 City of Milton June 10, 2015 6 parcel. If the community development director finds that the proposed property meets the criteria for a Park/Greenway TDR Sending Site, he/she shall approve the application and submit the transfer of title to the City of Milton or an agency/organization authorized by the City Council for approval. A permanent public access easement approved by the community development director may be used instead of title transfer if the proposed easement would implement all preservation and public recreational goals for the site in question, subject to the approval of the City Council. This easement may apply to all or a portion of a single parcel as long as the portion subject to the easement is at least one acre in size. If a Park/Greenway TDR Sending Site is secured by easement rather than City ownership, the easement shall permanently prohibit all development, shall preclude any improvements that would impede site use for public purposes and shall specify that all other uses and activities will be controlled by the provisions of the T2 for parcels within This District or the provisions of the AG-1 zoning district for parcels outside the This District. 1.7.4 TDR Allocation a. Open Space TDR Sending Sites: Upon recordation of an approved conservation easement, the community development director shall deduct the area of land precluded from development by preexisting easements and issue TDRs to the owners of Open Space TDR Sending Sites using the following formula: i. One TDR per full acre of Unconstrained Land ii. Plus one TDR per four full acres of Constrained Land iii. Plus one TDR per each full five acres of land subtotaled under i. and ii. in excess of five acres b. Park/Greenway TDR Sending Sites: Upon title transfer or recordation of an approved public access easement, the community development director shall deduct the area of land precluded from development by preexisting easements and issue Transferable Development Rights to the owners of Park/Greenway TDR Sending Sites using the following two-step process. Step One: calculate the total number of TDRs produced by i, ii and iii below: i. One TDR per full acre of Unconstrained Land ii. Plus one TDR per four full acres of Constrained Land iii. Plus one TDR per each full five acres of land subtotaled under i. and ii. in excess of five acres Step Two: Multiply the total from Step One by a factor of 1.25 c. Civic Space TDR Sending Sites: Upon title transfer or recordation of an approved public access easement, the community development director shall deduct the area of land precluded from development by preexisting easements and issue Transferable Development Rights to the owners of Parks/Greenways TDR Sending Sites designated as suitable for Civic Spaces in an adopted plan or code using the following two-step process. Step One: calculate the total number of TDRs produced by i, ii and iii below: i. One TDR per full acre of Unconstrained Land ii. Plus one TDR per four full acres of Constrained Land iii. Plus one TDR per each full five acres of land subtotaled under i. and ii. in excess of five acres Step Two: Multiply the total from Step One by a factor of 1.5. 1.7.5 TDR Transfers: The community development director shall establish and administer a process for documenting and monitoring the issuance, transfer and permanent extinguishment of TDRs when they are ARNOLD MILL ROAD FORM-BASED CODE – DRAFT V3 City of Milton June 10, 2015 7 used to increase density in a TDR Receiving Site development. TDR Sending Site property owners who are issued TDRs may retain them, transfer them directly to TDR Receiving Site developers or transfer them to intermediaries who may also retain them or transfer them to TDR Receiving Site developers. The City of Milton may but is not obligated to buy, hold and resell TDRs. The City may also sever TDRs from land that it buys after the effective date of this ordinance for Parks and Greenways and sell these TDRs for use in TDR Receiving Site developments. The price paid for TDRs is determined by negotiation between TDR buyers and sellers. 1.7.6 TDR Receiving Sites: TDRs may be transferred to the TDR Receiving Sites designated by This Code and any additional TDR Receiving Sites that may subsequently be designated by the City. TDR Receiving Site owners may build at or below the Base Densities established by code without any use of TDRs. However, owners who choose to do so may exceed the Base Densities and achieve the established maximum densities at the transfer ratio set forth in Section 1.7.7. 1.7.7 TDR Transfer Ratio: Pursuant to This Code, developers of projects on TDR Receiving Sites may use the TDR to exceed Base Densities and achieve the maximum code-allowed Density at the transfer ratio of two building units per full TDR. Building Units shall be exchanged for Functions as set forth in Section 1.6.4. 1.7.8 Unified Sending/Receiving Site: A TDR Sending Site and a TDR Receiving Site may occur on a single parcel if the respective portions of the parcel meet all criteria. TDRs from the Sending Site portion of the parcel shall be allocated using the formula provided in 1.7.4 except TDRs shall not be granted open space and Greenway dedications that are required as a condition of site development. TDRs from the TDR Sending Site portion of the parcel may be transferred to the TDR Receiving Site portion of the parcel, transferred to a separate TDR Receiving Site or to any combination of on-site and off-site TDR Receiving Sites. 1.7.9 Compliance Requirements a. When the use of TDR results in divisions of land, TDR compliance shall occur prior to final subdivision map approval. b. When the use of TDR results in additional Density without a division of land, TDR compliance shall occur prior to building permit issuance. c. In no event shall any component of this TDR program have application to any TDR Sending Site or TDR Receiving Site outside the jurisdictional boundary of the City of Milton.

This table shows the configurations for different building heights for each Transect Zone. T4-0pen 34 June 10, 2015 ARNOLD MILL FORM-BASED CODE – V3 City of Milton a.T2 T3 T4 b.T4 c.T4Rearyard: A building that occupies the full Frontage, leaving the rear of the lot as the sole yard. This is a very urban type as the continuous Facade steadily defines the public Thoroughfare. The rear Elevations may be articulated for functional purposes. In its Residential form, this type is the Rowhouse. For its Commercial form, the rear yard can accommodate substantial parking. TABLE 6: Building Placement. This table approximates the location of the structure relative to the boundaries of each individual Lot, establishing suitable basic building types for each Transect Zone. Edgeyard: A building that occupies the center of its lot with Setbacks on all sides. This is the least urban of types as the front yard sets it back from the Frontage, while the side yards weaken the spatial definition of the public Thoroughfare space. The front yard is intended to be visually continuous with the yards of adjacent buildings. The rear yard can be secured for privacy by fences and a well placed Backbuilding and/or Outbuilding. Sideyard: A building that occupies one side of the lot with the Setback to the other side. A shallow Frontage Setback defines a more urban condition. If the adjacent building is similar with a blank side wall, the yard can be quite private. This type permits systematic climatic orientation in response to the sun or the breeze. If a Sideyard House abuts a neighboring Sideyard House, the type is known as a Twin or double house. Energy costs, and sometimes noise, are reduced by sharing a party wall in this disposition. 35 June 10, 2015 ARNOLD MILL FORM-BASED CODE – V3 City of Milton LOT ►◄ R.O.W. LOT ►◄ R.O.W.

The Private Frontage is the areas between the building Facades and the lot lines. SECTION PLAN Stoop: a Frontage wherein the Façade is aligned close to the Frontage Line with the first Story elevated from the Sidewalk sufficiently to ensure privacy for the windows. The entrance is usually an exterior stair and landing. This type is recommended for ground-floor Residential use. Stoops shall be no less than 30 inches deep. Shopfront: a Frontage wherein the Façade is aligned close to the Frontage Line with the building entrance at Sidewalk grade. This type is conventional for Retail use. It has glazing on the Sidewalk level and an awning that should overlap the Sidewalk to within 2 feet of the Curb. Syn: Retail Frontage. Gallery: a Frontage wherein the Façade is aligned with the Frontage Line with an attached cantilevered shed or lightweight colonnade overlapping the Sidewalk. This type is conventional for Retail use. The Gallery should be no less than 10 feet wide and should overlap the sidewalk to within 2 feet of the Curb. Common Yard: a planted Frontage wherein the Façade is set back substantially from the Frontage Line. The front yard created remains unfenced and is visually continuous with adjacent yards, supporting a common landscape. The deep Setback provides a buffer from the higher speed Thoroughfares. Porch & Fence: a planted Frontage where the Façade is set back from the Frontage Line with an attached porch permitted to Encroach. A fence, wall, or hedge at the Frontage Line maintains street spatial definition. Porches shall be no less than 8 feet deep. Terrace or Lightwell: a frontage wherein the Façade is setback back from the Frontage Line by an elevated terrace or sunken Lightwell. This type buffers Residential use from urban Sidewalks and removes the private yard from public encroachment. Terraces are suitable for conversion to outdoor cafes. Syn: Dooryard. Forecourt: a Frontage wherein the Façade is close to the Frontage Line and the central portion is set back. The forecourt created is suitable for vehicular drop-offs. This type should be allocated in conjunction with other Frontage types. Large trees within the Forecourts may overhang the Sidewalks. 36 June 10, 2015 ARNOLD MILL FORM-BASED CODE – DRAFT V3 City of Milton T4 a. RESIDENTIAL b. LODGING c. OFFICE d. RETAIL e. CIVIC f.

ARCHITECTURAL STYLES 7.1.1 This Section provides an overview of the seven architectural styles and their colors set forth in Section 4.1 6.2. Because the execution of specific styles can vary, the description/definition of each style can vary and therefore, the information contained in this article may not be all inclusive. A. ARCHITECTURAL STYLES Vernacular: With origins in Elizabethan England and influenced by Native American and African American traditions, the Vernacular tradition in the South is the essence of beauty, function, and simplicity. It is a powerful building type, perhaps the most indigenous to America. Dating from the arrival of the first settlers, it was recycled into the fabric of later styles and has never been fully abandoned. Vernacular forms exhibit natural composition, never decorative or academic, but relating to a relaxed logic. Materiality rules, as building materials are used in their most raw, pure, forms, with ornament reduced to mere gesture, executed in the same raw materials. Essential elements include simple masses, many times saltbox and catslide, with additions and appendages. Almost without exception, roofs are gabled, with gables rarely facing the front. Shed roofs over full-length porches or enclosed additions are common. Gable-end chimneys are prominent. Windows are of similar sizes, spaced in a balanced but not overly rigid composition, and are generally non-ornamental. Window spacing relating to room arrangement is often independent of column or post spacing, which relates to the actual porch structure. Modest stylistic detailing is Federal and Greek Revival, with elements of Italianate and Carpenter Gothic. Ceiling heights range from 9 feet to 12 feet for commercial buildings, and 7 feet to 10 feet for houses. One-story Vernacular cottages may have so-called travelers rooms on either side of a front porch, featuring ceilings as low as 7 feet. Frugality rules Vernacular architecture. Hand made brick, wood horizontal lap siding, flush T&G plank siding under porches, wood-shingle and standing- seam roofs, and brick and/or stone chimneys are the typical features found in early architecture. Later forms are sometimes roofed in corrugated or 5-V galvanized metal. Typical exterior colors for earlier buildings include slate blue and earth tones such as terra cotta, taupe, and brown. Later works are typically whitewashed. Because Vernacular is not truly a style but a local building trad ition, its form never hybridized with nineteenth century styles. Stylistic detailing is applied to the building in a superficial manner. Queen Anne: The Queen Anne Style dominated domestic American architecture from about 1880 until 1900. Popularized by the architect Richard Norman Shaw, the style was a revival of late medieval styles in England. (The name Queen Anne, however has little or nothing to do with the reign of the English queen during the formalistic Renaissance period.) Indigenous versions of the style usually translated into wooden-frame structures decorated with turned spindle work and free-form Classicism, with columns, pediments, and so forth being freely substituted for medieval ornament. The movement was fueled in the New South by the commerce generated by the cotton industry. The forms of the buildings themselves are a fanciful version of medieval forms. Asymmetry was the general rule with steeply pitched roofs, front gables, and folk ornament. As opposed to the academic Adam and Greek Revival styles, there is a deliberate effort at making the façade three dimensional, using projecting gables and cutaway bays. The new railroads brought pre made spindle work and bric-a-brac ornament to almost every American town ARNOLD MILL ROAD FORM-BASED CODE – DRAFT V3 City of Milton June 10, 2015 51 and city, resulting in the proliferation of the quintessential gingerbread house. Windows tended to be 1/1 or 2/2 with the occasional ornamental sash. Ceilings were usually very tall, starting at 10 feet. Colors were earthy-sage, taupe, amber, gold, and brown. Trim and sashes were usually in the darker spectrum of the palette. B. COLORS AND FINISHES As the architecture demands, the color palette of the City of Milton is diverse. With an emphasis on “real” materials, whether natural or manmade, many colors and finishes should simply be left unfinished. Surfaces to be painted should complement the architecture, never commanding too much attention. Colors must never upstage the natural landscape. Colors and finishes must be appropriate to the mood and style of the building. Designs that are derived from the Vernacular style will be early 19th century color combinations, with colors such as burnt sienna; rich warm gray, mustard and “haint” blue. Designs that are inspired by Queen Anne are complex and rich, displaying earth tones that contrast to one another. The designer should research period colors and become familiar with the combinations that can be used. C. ARCHITECTURAL STYLES ILLUSTRATED The following are illustration of key components of the above-noted styles. Please note that the graphics show the styles as utilized on single-family detached houses, although these styles can readily translate into commercial or mixed-use buildings through use of stylistic detailing.

The street is bisected with the Forsyth County Line. It is currently zoned AG-1 (Agricultural) and is accessed through The Manor Golf and Country Club via Watsons Bend. The site is located within the “Private Recreation” designation of the City of Milton 2030 Comprehensive Plan Map. The subject site was not land within the golf course and therefore, mislabeled on the Plan Map. The applicant is requesting a rezoning to R-2A (Residential) to develop 5, minimum one acre lot single family residences at an overall density of .777 units per acre. The existing home will be torn down to allow a new structure on lot 75. SITE PLAN ANALYSIS Based on the applicant’s site plan submitted to the Community Development Department on March 27, 2015, Staff offers the following considerations: DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS – SEC. 64-508 R-2A (Single Family Dwelling District) Development Standards Proposed Development No building shall exceed 40 feet in height None indicated Minimum front yard – 60 feet 60 feet Minimum side yard as follows: Adjacent to interior line: 15 feet Adjacent to street: 30 feet 15 feet 30 feet (There are no side yards adjacent to a street) Minimum rear yard – 40 feet 40 feet Minimum lot area – 27,000 sq.ft. 1 Acre Minimum lot width shall be 120 ft. 120 feet Minimum lot frontage shall be 35 feet adjoining a street 35 feet Minimum heated floor area shall be as follows: For two-story dwelling: 1,800 sq.ft. or Per the letter of intent – 4,000 sq.ft. Prepared by the Community Development Department for the City of Milton Mayor and City Council Meeting on June 15, 2015 6/11/2015 Page 8 of 15 RZ15-12 OTHER SITE PLAN CONSIDERATIONS Pursuant to Sec 64-2392, the Zoning Ordinance requires sidewalks which shall be constructed in accordance with the Department of Public Works standard plan which requires sidewalks on at least one side of the street. Within the City Code, Chapter 50, Subdivisions, it is required that sidewalks within residential subdivisions be a minimum of 5 feet in width with a minimum 2 foot beauty strip between the sidewalk and the curb. The site plan does not indicate the required sidewalks, but a condition is included to provide a sidewalk on at least one side of the street. The stormwater for this site will be addressed with the lake on the southern portion of the property. Homes within this development will be required to meet the Rural Milton Overlay District development standards. This includes maximum lot coverage of 25 percent where fronting on private streets. This is based on a recent amendment of the Overlay by the Mayor and City Council. Otherwise, it appears that the development meets the requirements of the Overlay. ENVIRONMENTAL SITE ANALYSIS The Environmental Site Analysis (ESA) report is sufficient and satisfies the requirement of Sec. 64-2126. The applicant has stated the following: “There is no jurisdictional Flood Plain per official FEMA maps. All wetlands located on this site are located within lake/stream banks or buffers with no development activity proposed in this area. A portion of the property located along the edge of the lake contains slopes of 25 percent or greater. This area is covered in mature woodlands with no visible erosion or de-stabilization and no activity is planned in this area. Our field inspection discovered no vegetation or historical sites located on this property. A tree survey was performed on this property and the specimen trees located on this property are shown on the site plan.” ARBORIST COMMENTS The proposed rezoning will be subject to the same specimen tree preservation and tree density coverage as the existing zoning development standards. It appears that the 42” water oak between lots 71 and 72 should be preserved. It appears that some of the trees on lot 75 will be removed to build a new house.

Further evaluation of the plan will be made at the time of the Land Disturbance Permit application. FULTON COUNTY BOARD OF EDUCATION Prepared by the Community Development Department for the City of Milton Mayor and City Council Meeting on June 15, 2015 6/11/2015 Page 10 of 15 RZ15-12 FINANCIAL MODELING RESULTS Prepared by the Community Development Department for the City of Milton Mayor and City Council Meeting on June 15, 2015 6/11/2015 Page 11 of 15 RZ15-12 PUBLIC INVOLVEMENT On April 27, 2015 the applicant was present at the Community Zoning Information Meeting (CZIM) held at the Milton City Hall. There was no one in attendance for the subject site. Public Comments – Staff has received one phone call or e-mail regarding this petition. Staff explained the proposal and the neighbor was satisfied. PUBLIC PARTICIPATION REPORT Staff received the report on May 18, 2015. The applicant’s Public Participation Meeting was held on May 13, 2015 between 5:00 pm and 8:00 pm at the Brumbelow-Reese offices located on Hwy 9. There was one person in attendance at the meeting. He was representing The Manor HOA and concerned that this property is not part of the Manor covenants. The applicant’s attorney and the HOA attorney are trying to work out this issue. CITY OF MILTON DESIGN REVIEW BOARD COURTESY REVIEW – May 5, 2015  There appears to be no other solution for the site. Standards of Review (Section 64-2104) Planning Staff shall, with respect to each zoning application, investigate and make a recommendation with respect to factors 1 through 7, below, as well as any other factors it may find relevant. 1. Whether or not the proposal will permit a use that is suitable in view of the use and development of adjacent and nearby Property? The proposed 5 lot single family residential subdivision developed at a density of .777 units per acre is consistent with the adjacent development to the north, west and south within the City of Milton and The Manor Golf and Country Club which is zoned AG-1 and developed with minimum one acres lots. To the east in Forsyth County, it is zoned R2R which requires a minimum lot size of 22,000 square feet. Further to the east, it is Zoned MPD (Master Plan Development) at a density of 1.84 units per acre. It is Staff’s opinion that the proposed use and density is suitable with adjacent properties within the City. Prepared by the Community Development Department for the City of Milton Mayor and City Council Meeting on June 15, 2015 6/11/2015 Page 12 of 15 RZ15-12 2. Whether or not the proposal will adversely affect the existing use or usability of adjacent or nearby property? It is Staff’s opinion that the proposal may not adversely affect existing use or usability of the adjacent properties. 3. Whether the property to be affected by the proposal has a reasonable economic use as currently zoned? The subject site may have a reasonable use currently zoned AG-1 (Agricultural). 4. Whether the proposal will result in a use which will or could cause an excessive or burdensome use of existing streets, transportation facilities, utilities or schools? Staff does not anticipate a significant impact on public services or utilities. Comments from the Fulton County Board of Education are included in the report as it relates to the estimated number of new students for the proposed rezoning which will have an impact on the elementary and middle schools. It is Staff’s opinion that the proposal will not cause a burden on transportation facilities if approved with the Recommended Conditions. 5. Whether the proposal is in conformity with the policies and intent of the land use plan? City of Milton 2030 Comprehensive Land Use Plan Map – Private Recreation (Low Density Residential) Proposed use/density: Single Family Residential at .777 units per acre/CONSISTENT Although the Plan Map recommends Private Recreation, it is believed it should have been designated Low Density Residential based on the designation for The Manor. This property was not a part of the golf course itself. In addition, the R-2A zoning designation is acceptable within the Low Density Residential designation. Prepared by the Community Development Department for the City of Milton Mayor and City Council Meeting on June 15, 2015 6/11/2015 Page 13 of 15 RZ15-12 6. Whether there are other existing or changed conditions affecting the use and development of the property which gives supporting grounds for either approval or disapproval of the proposal? The proposed development is consistent with the adjacent development for lot size and density, but the applicant requested the R-2A designation to allow smaller side setbacks to be consistent with the opposite side of the road within Forsyth County. It is consistent with the 2030 Future Land Use Plan and therefore, Staff recommends APPROVAL CONDITIONAL of RZ15-12. 7. Whether the zoning proposal will permit a use which can be considered environmentally adverse to the natural resources, environment and citizens of the City of Milton? The proposed use will not be environmentally adverse to the natural resources, environment and citizens of the City due to the required development regulations as it pertains to stormwater facilities and tree recompense. CONCLUSION The proposed 5 lot single family subdivision is consistent with the City of Milton’s 2030 Comprehensive Land Use Plan and adjacent and nearby properties. Therefore, Staff recommends APPROVAL CONDITIONAL OF RZ15-12. Prepared by the Community Development Department for the City of Milton Mayor and City Council Meeting on June 15, 2015 6/11/2015 Page 14 of 15 RZ15-12 RECOMMENDED CONDITIONS If this petition is approved by the Mayor and City Council, the rezoning of property located on Kings Close with approximately 525 feet of frontage on the west side, it should be approved for R-2A (Single Family Residential) CONDITIONAL subject to the owner’s agreement to the following enumerated conditions. Where these conditions conflict with the stipulations and offerings contained in the Letter of Intent, these conditions shall supersede unless specifically stipulated by the Mayor and City Council. 1) To the owner’s agreement to restrict the use of the subject property as follows: a) Single family detached dwellings and accessory uses and structures. b) No more than 5 total dwelling units at a maximum density of .777 units per acre, whichever is less, based on the total acreage zoned.

SITE PLAN ANALYSIS Based on the applicant’s revised site plan and revised letter of intent submitted to the Community Development Department on March 27, 2015, Staff offers the following considerations: Day Care Facility (Section 64-1809) Required Standard Meets the Standard (a) Required Districts; R-6, TR, A, and A-L. May be allowed in single-family districts and AG-1 in conjunction with an institutional use such as a church, temple, place of worship, school or a hospital. This use is allowed as a permitted use in districts CUP, O-I, MIX, C-1, C-2, Deerfield/Hwy 9 Form Based Code and Crabapple Form Based Code. Yes, existing church (b) Standards. 1. Facility shall be for seven or more persons, excluding staff. Yes No 2. Provide a minimum six-foot-high opaque fence interior to any required landscape strips or buffers around the periphery of the yard used for the play area. No, See VC15- 02 discussed below. 3. Play areas shall be located within the rear or side yards. Yes 4. The hours of operation shall be limited to 6:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. Yes 5. No parking allowed in the minimum front yard setback. Yes 6. Driveway design shall permit vehicles to exit the property in a forward direction. Yes 7. In accordance with section 64-2131, submit a noise study report as required. Does not apply. The applicant’s letter of intent received on March 27, 2015 explains their plans for the proposed after school and summer camp programs. The programs will be operated by Wonderland International Learning Center. Students attending the after school program will be drawn from local elementary schools ranging in age from 5 to 12. There may be some tutoring classes offered for students from middle school and high school. The maximum number of students in the after school or summer camp would be 60. The church building has approximately 5,000 square feet. The after school program will utilize three class rooms, a large society room and the 2,100 square Prepared by the Community Development Department for the City of Milton Mayor and City Council Meeting on June 15, 2015. 6/11/2015 U15-03/VC15-02 Page 7 of 12 foot sanctuary. A flat open grass area of approximately 11,500 square feet in the rear of the church will be used for outside activities. A 1,024 square foot area in the rear of the open area will be dedicated to a playground facility. The grassy area and the playground will be enclosed with a 6 foot high decorative black aluminum fence. We are seeking a concurrent variance to replace the required opaque fence with an aluminum vertical rail type fence. Discussion of Use Permit Standards The applicant meets the standards for the daycare with the exception of the request to construct a non-opaque fence around the playground, which is discussed below. VC15-02 - To allow a non-opaque fence for the playground enclosure (Sec. 64- 1809(b)(3)). The applicant is proposing a non-opaque fence to surround the playground. A black metal vertical fence was proposed. At the Design Review meeting they asked if a four board horse fence could be installed. The applicant is open to that if it looks good at six feet as required by code. Staff has found that the state does not allow for chicken wire for fencing which is used for equestrian fencing. It is Staff’s opinion that installing a non-opaque fence is consistent with the goal of the city to limit opaque fences and walls, Staff recommends APPROVAL CONDITIONAL of VC15-02. Rural Milton Overlay District The proposed site plan meets the requirements of the Rural Milton Overlay District as required pursuant to Sec. 64-1143. City Arborist There are no specimen trees impacted by the development of the playground or fenced in area on the site. Fire Marshal Two emergency exits leading from different sides of the fence surrounding the playground, but not through the building maybe required. In addition, the interior will need to be reviewed for compliance for fire code based on the educational function of the use. Environmental Site Analysis The Environmental Site Analysis (ESA) report was completed as required by the Zoning Ordinance. On the site, there are no wetlands, floodplain, streams, steep Prepared by the Community Development Department for the City of Milton Mayor and City Council Meeting on June 15, 2015. 6/11/2015 U15-03/VC15-02 Page 8 of 12 slopes or archeological/historical sites. There is no endangered vegetation or wildlife on the site. Public Involvement Community Zoning Information Meeting On April 28, 2015 the applicant was present at the Community Zoning Information Meeting held at the Milton City Hall. There was one member of the community in attendance at the meeting. The following issues were brought up at the meeting:  The proposed after school program would produce too much traffic in the area.  When the church was originally approved in 1997, there was not supposed to be any additional uses. (Staff notes that this was not in the conditions of zoning from 1997.)  The kids on the playground will disturb the adjacent neighbors. City of Milton Design Review Board Meeting Courtesy Review – May 5, 2015  No primary colors.  Install four board horse fence, unless alternative is required by code. Public Participation Plan and Report The applicant held the required Public Participation Meeting at the Morning Star Chapel at 8:00 pm on May 18, 2015. There was no one from the community or other interested parties at the meeting. USE PERMIT CONSIDERATIONS In the interest of the public health, safety and welfare, the Mayor and City Council may exercise limited discretion in evaluating the site proposed for a use that requires a Use Permit. In exercising such discretion pertaining to the subject use, the Mayor and City Council shall consider each of the following as outlined in Sec. 64-1552 of the Zoning Ordinance: Use Permit Considerations. Staff has reviewed said items pertaining to the subject use, and, offers the following comments: 1. Whether the proposed use is consistent with the land use or economic development plans adopted by the Mayor and City Council: The proposed use within the existing church is located in the land use category “Community Facilities” on the City of Milton 2030 Comprehensive Plan Map. The proposed use permit for day care facility is Prepared by the Community Development Department for the City of Milton Mayor and City Council Meeting on June 15, 2015. 6/11/2015 U15-03/VC15-02 Page 9 of 12 permitted in the AG-1 (Agricultural) district when it is associated with a church and is consistent with the Community Facilities land use category. Compatibility with land uses and zoning districts in the vicinity of the property for which the use permit is proposed: The subject site is located near the northwest corner of Bethany Bend and Hopewell Road. There are scattered single family residences to the north and northeast of the site. On the northeast corner of Bethany Bend and Hopewell Road is zoned for NUP (Neighborhood Unit Plan) for a total of 24 single family residences pursuant RZ13-16. To the southeast is Cambridge High School and to the south is Kings Ridge Christian Academy located within the City of Alpharetta. Further to the southwest is North Park within the City of Alpharetta. It is Staff’s opinion that the proposed after school and summer camp uses are compatible with adjacent and nearby properties if approved with the Recommended Conditions . 2. Whether the proposed use may violate local, state and/or federal statutes, ordinances or regulations governing land development: The proposed use does not appear to violate any ordinances or regulations governing land development if the concurrent variance is approved. 3. The effect of the proposed use on traffic flow, vehicular and pedestrian, along adjoining streets: The proposed use’s effect on the traffic flow, vehicular and pedestrian, along adjoining streets is minimal based on the estimate afternoon left turns into the site are 7 for drop off and 7 for pick up during the peak periods for the use. In addition, the average daily trips on Bethany Bend are 8,800 per day and meets the threshold for a left turn lane. The drop off and pick up times will occur outside of both the school peak hour and evening peak hour. 4. The location and number of off-street parking spaces; A day care facility requires 1.7 spaces per 1,000 square feet plus 1 space per 4 employees. The area to be used is 5,000 square feet and there will be approximately 8 employees. Therefore, the number of required off street parking spaces is 11 spaces. There is an existing parking lot for the church which has more than 40 parking spaces. 5. The amount and location of open space: The proposed site provides adequate open space on the site if approved with the recommended conditions. Prepared by the Community Development Department for the City of Milton Mayor and City Council Meeting on June 15, 2015. 6/11/2015 U15-03/VC15-02 Page 10 of 12 6. Protective screening: The site meets the required buffers and landscape strips at the time of the approval of the Use Permit for the church. Since that time, the City has adopted the Rural Milton Overlay that requires a 75 foot undisturbed buffer and 10 foot improvement setback if additional square footage was proposed. The applicant is only adding a fenced playground area but the site plan indicates compliance with the 75 foot undisturbed buffer and 10 foot improvement setbacks adjacent to single family residential. In addition, the existing configuration of the site and vegetation meets the requirements of the Rural Viewshed that requires buildings to be 60 feet from the road. 7. Hours and manner of operation: The following hours are proposed as indicated in the applicant’s letter of intent: Monday through Friday -2:30 p.m. to 7:00 pm School Holidays – 8:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. Summer Camp - 8 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. It is Staff’s opinion that the above mentioned hours of operation are reasonable for the proposed uses and will be included in the Recommended Conditions. 8. Outdoor lighting: The applicant has not indicated any additional lighting on the site. If lighting is proposed, it must comply with the Night Sky Ordinance. 9. Ingress and egress to the property. The proposed use will access the site using the existing drive way which includes a right turn lane on Bethany Bend. Utilizing the International Traffic Engineers trip generation rates for a daycare center based on 60 students, there are an estimated 25 a.m. entering trips for drop off and 23 p.m. entering trips for pick up. The distribution for entering vehicles is projected to be 70% westbound and 30% eastbound. Prepared by the Community Development Department for the City of Milton Mayor and City Council Meeting on June 15, 2015. 6/11/2015 U15-03/VC15-02 Page 11 of 12 CONCLUSION If approved with the Recommended Conditions, the proposed after school program and summer camp associated with a church are consistent with the City of Milton 2030 Future Land Use Plan and Policies. Therefore, Staff recommends U15-03 and VC15-02 be APPROVED CONDITIONAL.
