SUMMARY
The applicant is requesting a variance from Section 4.4.7 “Minimum Yard Requirements” of the LDRs to
allow for a five (5) foot wetland setback instead of a 35 foot wetland setback. The subject property
currently contains one single family residence; however, the applicant proposed to demolish the
existing residence and construct a larger residence in approximately the same location as the existing
residence.
Map 1. Proposed Official Zoning Atlas with Subject Property
The Environmentally Sensitive Area ("ESA") Zone District is described as follows in Section 4.4.1 of the Land Development Regulations (“LDRs”):
“The "ESA" environmentally sensitive area category includes three zone districts: ESA-1, 2, 3. Lands in
these districts are considered in need of special planning and treatment regarding land development
regulation. These are not preservation districts, but land uses permitted within these districts are to
provide mitigating measures to protect the natural functions of areas which are limited to the planning
and treatment of land development within the 100-year floodplain of the Ichetucknee Springs State Park,
O'Leno State Park, Osceola National Forest, Pinhook Swamp, Suwannee River Corridor, Santa Fe River
Corridor and Ichetucknee Trace, as designated within the Federal Emergency Management [Agency] flood
insurance rate map for the county, as amended. These regulations prohibit intensive residential, intensive
recreational and intensive agricultural uses and prohibit industrial and commercial development within
the 100-year floodplain of the areas designated as environmentally sensitive areas.”

ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS ANALYSIS
Wetlands
According to Illustration A-VI of the Comprehensive Plan, entitled Wetlands Areas, which is based upon
the National Wetlands Inventory, dated 1987, and the National Wetlands Reconnaissance Survey, dated
1981, there are no wetlands located on the subject property.
Evaluation: Even though the National Wetland Inventory does not indicate any wetlands on the subject
property, the subject property is located along the Ichetucknee River and wetlands have been located on
the subject property. The applicant is requesting a variance from the required wetland setback in Section
4.4.7 “Minimum Yard Requirements”. It should be noted that the applicant meets the 75 foot setback
requirement from the Ichetucknee River.

Map 4. Wetlands Map
Soil Survey
Each soil type found on the subject property is identified below. The hydrologic soil group is an indicator
of potential soil limitations. The hydrologic soil group, as defined for each specific soil, refers to a group
of soils which have been categorized according to their runoff-producing characteristics. These
hydrologic groups are defined by the Soil Survey of Columbia County, Florida, dated October 1984. The
chief consideration with respect to runoff potential is the capacity of each soil to permit infiltration (the
slope and kind of plant cover are not considered, but are separate factors in predicting runoff). There are
four hydrologic groups: A, B, C, and D. “Group A” soils have a higher infiltration rate when thoroughly wet
and therefore have a lower runoff potential. “Group D” soils have very lower infiltration rates and
therefore a higher runoff potential.
There are two (2) soil types found on the subject property:
1) Chiefland-Pedro Variant Complex, occasionally flooded soils are comprised of nearly level to sloping
soils that are within 3 miles of rivers and creeks interspersed with numerous sinkholes. The
Chiefland-Pedro Variant soil complex is comprised of 41 percent Chiefland soils and 39 percent Pedro
Variant soils. These soils are in areas so small or so intermingled that it was not practical to map
them separately. Chiefland-Pedro Variant complex have severe limitations for building site
development and for septic tank absorption fields.
Page 6 of 10
2) Plummer fine sand, occasionally flooded soils are poorly drained, nearly level soils on flood plains of
rivers and streams. The surface and subsurface layers are comprised of fine sand to a depth of 59
inches. The subsoil layer is comprised of sandy clay loam to a depth of 80 inches. Plummer fine sand,
occasionally flooded soils have severe limitations for building site development and for septic tank
absorption fields.
Evaluation: The major soil type on the subject property is Chiefland-Pedro Variant Complex. Chiefland-
Pedro Variant Complex poses severe limitations for septic tank absorption fields and building site
development. Given the site is already developed, there are no issues related to soil suitability.
Map 5. Soils Map
Flood Potential
Panel 0458C of the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM)
Series, dated February 4, 2009, indicates that the subject property is in Flood Zone "AE" (areas where a
base flood elevation is determined) and has a Base Flood Elevation of 33 feet.
Evaluation: Even though the subject property is located in Flood Zone "AE", there is no concern of flood
on the subject property. The applicant will be required to elevate the proposed dwelling one (1) foot
above the Base Flood Elevation (“B.F.E”).

Map 6. FEMA FIRM Map (Flood Map)
Stream to Sink
According to the Stream to Sink Watersheds, prepared by the Suwannee River Water Management District
and adopted by the Board of County Commissioners, dated June 2, 2001, the subject property is not located
within a stream to sink area.
Evaluation: Given the subject property is not located in a Stream to Sink Watershed, there is no concern
related to Stream to Sink Watersheds.
Minerals
According to Illustration A-VII of the Comprehensive Plan, entitled Minerals, which is based upon Natural
Resources, prepared by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection, 2012, the subject property
is within an area known to contain Clayey Sand.
Evaluation: There are no issues related to minerals.
Page 8 of 10
Historic Resources
According to Illustration A-II of the Comprehensive Plan, entitled Historic Resources, which is based upon
the Florida Division of Historical Resources, Master Site File, dated 2013, there are no known historic
resources located on the subject property.
Evaluation: There are no issues related to historic Resources.
Aquifer Vulnerability
According to the Columbia County Floridan Aquifer System Protection Zone Map, prepared by the Advance
GeoSpacial Inc., dated September 29, 2009, the subject property is located in a more vulnerable area.
Evaluation: While the subject property is located in a more vulnerable area, there is no issue related to
aquifer vulnerability.
Vegetative Communities/Wildlife
According to Illustration V-I of the Data and Analysis Report, entitled Vegetative Communities, the subject
property is located within a non-vegetative community.
Evaluation: There is no known wildlife habitats associated with a non-vegetative community; therefore,
there is no issue related to vegetative communities or wildlife.
COMPLIANCE WITH THE LAND DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS
Section 12.3.1.2 of the Land Development Regulations (“LDRs”) establishes standards with which all
Variance applications must be found in compliance with. Staff’s evaluation of the application’s compliance
with the applicable standards of Section 12.3.1.2 of the LDRs is provided below.
1) Special conditions and circumstances exist which are peculiar to the land, structure, or
building involved and which are not applicable to other lands, structures, or buildings in the
same zoning district.
Evaluation and Findings: The subject property is located in a platted subdivision which
was approved by the Board of County Commissioners on May 20, 1976 and does not meet
the current density requirements. The subject property is located in an Environmentally
Sensitive Area (“ESA”) Zone District. There are no special conditions which are peculiar to
the land, structure, or building which are no applicable to other lands, structures, or
buildings in the same Zone District. The applicant has a desire to demolish the existing
dwelling and rebuild a dwelling in the same place as the current dwelling; however, the
proposed dwelling has a larger footprint and encroaches further into the wetland setback.
2) The special conditions and circumstances do not result from the actions of the applicant.
Evaluation and Findings: Given that the proposed dwelling could be located in
conformance with the Land Development Regulations (“LDRs”), the conditions and
circumstances are a direct result of the applicant.
3) Granting the variance requested will not confer on the applicant any special privilege that is
denied by these Land Development Regulations (“LDRs”) to other lands, buildings, or
structures in the same Zoning District.
Page 9 of 10
Evaluation and Findings: The granting of the variance requested will confer on the
applicant a special privilege that is denied by these LDRs to other lands or structures in the
same Zoning District. While many of the existing structure within the Three Rivers
Subdivision may be located within the wetland setback, these structures existed prior to
establishment of the requirement for a wetland setback. If granted, the variance will confer
on the applicant a special privilege that is denied to other lands or structures.
4) Literal interpretation of the provisions of the LDRs would deprive the applicant of rights
commonly enjoyed by other properties in the same zoning district under the terms of the
LDRs and would work unnecessary and undue hardship on the applicant.
Evaluation and Findings: The applicant has the ability to comply with the requirements of
the LDRs. The literal interpretation of the provisions of the LDRs would not deprive the
applicant of rights commonly enjoyed by other properties in the same zoning district under
the terms of the LDRs and would not work unnecessary and undue hardship on the
applicant.
5) The variance granted is the minimum variance that will make possible the reasonable use of
the land, building, or structure.
Evaluation and Findings: The proposed variance, if approved, would not be the minimum
variance allowed since the applicant can comply with the LDRs. The applicant can meet the
35 foot wetland setback, but desires to build closer to the Ichetucknee River.
6) The grant of the variance will be in harmony with the general intent and purpose of the
LDRs, and that such variance will not be injurious to the area involved or otherwise
detrimental to the public welfare.
Evaluation and Findings: While granting the proposed variance isn’t in harmony with the
general intent and purpose of the LDRs, it is not anticipated that granting the proposed
variance would be injurious or detrimental to public welfare.
7) Limitations on subsequent written petition for a variance. No written petition by an owner of
real property for a variance for a particular parcel of property, or part thereof, shall be filed
with the Land Development Regulation Administrator until the expiration of 12 calendar
months from the date of denial of a written petition for a variance for such property, or part
thereof, unless the board of adjustment specially waives said waiting period based upon a
consideration of the following factors:
a. The new written petition constituting a proposed variance different from the one
proposed in the denied written petition.
b. Failure to waive said 12-month waiting period constitutes a hardship to the applicant
resulting from mistake, inadvertence, or newly discovered matters of consideration.
Evaluation and Findings: No application for a variance has been made in respect to the
subject property within the past twelve (12) months.
PUBLIC FACILITIES IMPACT
Given the applicant is not proposing any additional Recreational Vehicle sites in association with the
campground; there are no impacts to Public Facilities.

Crews Engineering Services, LLC is requesting a variance from the Zoning Regulations on behalf of our client, Cimaron Holt, to permit the construction of a site built home on property along the ltchetucknee. Requesting a variance from Article 4, Zoning Regulations, 4.4.7(1.), Special Provisions with regards to required wetland setbacks. This variance is requested because of the following:
• Will be in conformance with existing improvements along the river on other properties
• Using the current setback requirement of 35' will cause the new building to be placed +/- 25' farther away from the location of the old structure and adjacent neighbors' houses
• An existing septic tank would have to be relocated and permitted. • The proposed improvements are allowed under an FDEP Notice General
Environmental Resource Permit (Rule 62-341.427), See attached portion of rule
The hardships described are not a result of other man-made changes, or due to any conflicting property interests. CES is requesting a variance to the minimum setback requirements, that they may be changed from 35' to S'. This is requested because majority of neighboring lots along the ltchnetucknee are also within this setback.
