INDIAN RIVER COUNTY, FLORIDA MEMORANDUM

THROUGH: Stan Boling, AICP; Planning Director

FROM: Mark Zans; Senior Planner, Current Development

DATE: , 2009

SUBJECT: Realtors Association of Indian River County's Request for Site Plan Approval to Construct an Office Building and Related Improvements [SP-MA-09-05-15 / 2006060290-63685]

It is requested that the data herein presented be given formal consideration by the Planning and Zoning Commission at its regular meeting of July 23, 2009.

DESCRIPTION & CONDITIONS

Kimley-Hom & Associates Inc. has submitted an application for site plan approval on behalf of the Realtors Association of Indian River County to construct an office building and related improvements at the southeast comer of US Highway 1 and Quay Dock Road, a road designated as historic in the county's comprehensive plan (see attachment #7). Fronting 67th Street, Quay Dock Road, and U.S. Highway 1, the site is split zoned with CL (Commercial Limited) and RM-3 (Residential Multi­ family/ up to 3 units per acre) zoning. Recently, the county rezoned a small portion of the project site from RM-3 to CL to make up for the amount of CL zoned property lost from the site through right­ of-way dedication.

The site is currently vacant, and proposed to be developed as an office building, a permitted use in the CL zoning district. As proposed, the site plan shows that a small portion of the site improvements will be constructed within the Quay Dock Road historic road buffer. Under the county's scenic and historic roads regulations (see attachment #6), the proposed "encroachment" is allowed if approved by the Planning and Zoning Commission.

The Planning and Zoning Commission is now to consider approval of the request for site plan approval and construction of certain improvements within the Quay Dock Road historic road buffer.

F:\Community Development\Users\MARKZ\Docs\P&Z\J,009\RealtorsAssocationBuilding\p&zreport.rtf 1 ANALYSIS 1. Size of Development: 2.20 Acres or 95,832 square feet

2. Zoning Classifications: CL (Limited Commercial) RM-3 (Residential Multi-Family up to 3 units per acre)

Note: The western 62 % of the site is zoned CL, while the eastern 38 % is zoned RM-3.

3. Land Use Designations: C/I (Commercial/Industrial) L-1 (Low-Density I up to 3 units per acre)

4. Building Area: 8,097 square feet ( office and meeting room area) Note: The proposed building is one story.

5. Open Space: Required: 30.7%* Proposed: 52.0% Note: The required open space is calculated on a pro-rated basis using the minimum open space requirements of the CL (25%) and the RM-3 (40%) districts.

6. Traffic Circulation: Access to the site will be from one full movement driveway connection to 67th Street which will be paved (see #12 below). There will be no access or driveway connection to U.S. Highway I or Quay Dock Road. County traffic engineering has approved the internal traffic circulation plan and the project traffic study. Other than the 67th Street paving, no off-site traffic improvements are required or proposed,

7. Off-Street Parking: Required: 29 spaces Provided: 41 spaces (39 standard and 2 handicapped)

Note: The parking area is located adjacent to the office building at the west end of the site. Although the amount of parking exceeds the county minimum for office buildings, the "extra" spaces are needed to accommodate parking for meetings and seminars.

8. Utilities: The project will have public water and sewer service provided by the county. The Department of Utility Services and the Department of Health have approved these project utility provisions.

9. Tree Preservation: There are numerous existing oak and palm trees on the site. Of these, 16 oaks and 9 palms are to be preserved or relocated within the proposed development. The palm trees are located in the northern and western part of the site, with a majority of the oak trees at the eastern end of the site. No specimen size trees are being removed from the site; so no mitigation is required. During construction, tree protection barriers will need to be placed around all trees to be preserved. The county's environmental planning staff has approved the project's tree protection/ relocation plan.

10. Landscape Plan: The proposed landscape plan satisfies the requirements of Chapter 926 of the LDRs. As required, the site plan depicts a thoroughfare roadway landscape buffer and a local roadway / Type "B" buffer along U.S. Highway I and 67 th Street, respectively. Both landscape buffers include a 4' opaque feature above parking lot grade. The Quay Dock Road buffer varies in width from 25' to 45' and is equivalent to a Type "B" buffer with a 4' opaque feature.

F:\Community Development\Users\MARKZ\Docs\P&Z\2009\RealtorsAssocationBuilding\p&zreport.rtf 2 11. Stormwater Management: The preliminary stormwater management plan has been reviewed and approved by the Public Works Department. The plan proposes two stormwater management tracts (one dry, one wet) to be located along the site's north and east boundaries. Pursuant to Chapter 930 of the LDRs, a County Type "A" Stormwater Permit will be required prior to site plan release.

12. 67'h Street Improvements: The applicant proposes to widen 67'11 Street to two 11 foot lanes and to pave 67th street to a point 50 feet beyond the project entrance (full pavement). The applicant will be required to construct the 67'h Street improvements prior to the issuance of the certificate of occupancy for the project.

13. Quay Dock Road Historic Resource: Quay Dock Road is one of five roads in the county designated as "scenic and historic" in the comprehensive plan. (see attachment# 7). Pursuant to LDR Chapter 933.08, a 30' wide historic road buffer is required along the project site's Quay Dock Road frontage. Section 933.08 allows for "encroachments" into the buffer if approved by the Planning and Zoning Commission.

As proposed, the site plan depicts a Type "B" buffer (with a 4' opaque feature) that varies from 25' wide (west end) to 45' wide (east end) along the site's entire Quay Dock Road frontage. The proposed "encroachment" into the 30' wide buffer involves 14 parking spaces located along the western portion of the site's Quay Dock Road frontage encroaching into the south 5 feet of the buffer. Because the site has an unusual triangular shape and is affected by setback constraints resulting from front yards on 3 streets as well as the extra 30' buffer required along Quay Dock Road, staffs position is that the site plan design minimizes the amount of Quay Dock Road encroachment, while allowing reasonable development on a constrained site.

According to Section 902.06 of the LDRs, the HRAC (Historical Resources Advisory Committee) has the authority to review and evaluate any site plan, planned development, or subdivision that may impact a historic resource. In the past, the HRAC has reviewed and made recommendations on other projects that front Quay Dock Road (Winter Beach Village, The Antilles). Because the Realtors Association project fronts on Quay Dock Road and proposes an encroachment into the historic road buffer, the project was reviewed by HRAC on 19, 2009. (see attachment #8). At the March 19th meeting, HRAC recommended approval of the subject project with the following guidelines:

I. That a minimum 30-foot Type "A" buffer be provided along the site's Quay Dock Road frontage.

2. That the height of proposed buildings along Quay Dock Road be limited to one­ story only.

3. That no construction access be permitted to the site from Quay Dock Road.

4. That no pedestrian access be provided from the project to Quay Dock Road due to concerns regarding pedestrian safety on the narrow road.

After the March 19, 2009 meeting, the applicant modified the site plan to generally comply with the HRAC recommended guidelines as follows:

F:\Community Development\Uscrs\MARKZ\Docs\P&Z\2009\RealtorsAssocationBuilding\p&zreport.rtf 3 a. Depicted a 25' to 45' wide Type "B" buffer with a 4' opaque feature along Quay Dock Road. The proposed buffer is comparable to the recommended 30' wide Type "A" buffer. b. Agreed to limit the office building to one story. c. Agreed not to allow permanent or construction access to or from Quay Dock Road. d. Agreed not construct sidewalk or pedestrian access or improvements along Quay Dock Road.

Staffs conclusion is that the small buffer encroachment proposed is justified and that potential impacts on Quay Dock Road will be mitigated by the project's consistency with the HRAC recommended project guidelines.

14. Surrounding Land Use and Zoning:

North: Quay Dock Road, Boat Storage, Residential/ CG/ CL/ RM-3 East: Residential/ RS-3 South: 67'h Street, Residential/ RM-3 West: U.S Highway 1, Residential/ CL

15. Concurrency: As required under the county's concurrency regulations, the applicant has applied for and obtained a conditional concurrency certificate for the project. The concurrency certificate was issued based upon a concurrency analysis and a determination that adequate capacity is available to serve this project. In accordance with county concurrency regulations, the developer will be required to obtain final concurrency certificates prior to issuance of building permits,

RECOMMENDATION

Based on the analysis performed, staff recommends that the Planning and Zoning Commission grant site plan approval for the proposed office building, including the proposed 5' encroachment of parking spaces within a portion of the required 30' Quay Dock Road historic road buffer, with the following conditions:

I. Prior to issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy, the applicant shall:

(a) Pave 67 th Street from U.S. Highway I to a point 50 feet beyond the project entrance, and

(b) Install the Quay Dock Road historic road buffer as depicted on the project site plan.

Mr. Roland DeBlois, IRC Environmental & Code Enforcement Chief, summarized the memorandum dated March 13, 2009 and presented an aerial view of the address area, copies of which are on file at the Commission Office.

HRAC/Unapproved I March 19, 2009 C:\Documents and Settings\roland\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\OLKC\Min 03 jffj~)IMEffT 8 Mr. DeBlois explained Quay Dock Road was one of five roads in the County deemed "scenic and historic roads' in the Comprehensive Plan.

TIMES

From Tho Sundav Times Slump may swamp eco city The property cra'ih has cast doubts over plans for a green n1etropolis in Florida that has the backing ofBill Clinton

Dominic Rustie

In Central Florida, where the Ronald Reagan Turnpike meets Highway 441, lies a largely empty area of old cattle ranches and swamp known locally as Yeehaw Junction. Over the next decade property developers backed by a fast-food billionaire, and with the blessing of Bill Clinton, the former president, hope to turn the site into an eco city the size of Washington DC. If, that is, they can ever get the plans off the drawing board.

Destiny Florida is being developed by the property entrepreneur Anthony Pugliese and is backed by Fred Deluca, the billionaire co-founder of Subway, the sandwich chain. It is far more ambitious than the usual Florida land grab.

Destiny intends to be green from the ground up, a hub of eco-friendly business built round an environmentally friendly city that will preserve much of the rich local landscape. When finished, Pugliese hopes that "Destiny will position itself not just as the global model for sustainable building in the 21st century but also become the hub of green technology- like a [green] Silicon Valley for the United States, if not the world."

His plans, now being drawn up by Arup, the -based design and engineering firm, certainly seem to have impressed Clinton. But some critics are already doubting Destiny's green credentials, claiming that its plans are nebulous and getting more so. A failure in Florida would be a black eye for the Clinton Climate Initiative, which supports "climate positive" developments in mainly urban areas.

Destiny is the largest of 16 sites chosen by Clinton alongside projects in London, , San Francisco and Warsaw. His approval has already attracted global interest from firms looking for a green base for their operations, said Pugliese, though he declined to give names, citing non-disclosure agreements.

While most of the other Clinton-backed schemes are developments of urban areas, Destiny intends to build a city from scratch covering 64 square miles and producing energy to meet at least 50% of its own demands.

The first building, a green-friendly petrol station selling ethanol and services for electric cars as well as regular fuels, is already under construction.

http://www. ti meson! ine. co. uk/tol/news/environment/ article6493 3 5 7 .ece?print=yes&randn... 6/15/2009 Printer Friendly Page 2 of3

The city will be designed using green technology throughout, said Pugliese. "We don't want to end up designing beautiful buildings and then plopping on solar panels. The idea is to design buildings that provide for solar panels and to design buildings that can incorporate all types of new technologies."

Half the world's population now lives in cities and that figure is expected to grow to 70% by 2050. Cities occupy only 2% of the world's land area, yet they are responsible for more than two-thirds of global energy use and greenhouse-gas emissions.

Clinton's "climate positive" developments will strive to reduce the amount of on-site carbon-dioxide emissions to below zero. In Destiny, solar panels will be used to supply power to homes and to feed into the grid. Rubbish from restaurants will be composted and grass cuttings will be made into fertiliser. LED lighting will be used in place of less energy efficient incandescent units.

Destiny also hopes to lead the way on water. The city will aim to capture as much rain water as possible and reuse "grey" water from sinks, showers and kitchens to irrigate vegetation as well as using local supplies of brackish water (more salty than fresh) wherever possible.

Even the golf course will eschew the legions of sprinklers usually associated with hot-weather ranges in favour of greens using less thirsty grass. "Water is going to become a big issue everywhere we go in the future. It's probably going to be more scarce than oil," said Pugliese.

Central Florida is the least developed area in this densely populated state. It also happens to be an area of outstanding bio-diversity, home to rare plants and animals. Without sensitive planning all this could be lost, said Pugliese.

He hopes to start construction by 2011 and the project could take 25 to 50 years to complete. "The fortunate part is that we are starting with a clean canvas," he said.

However, Destiny has more than ecological challenges to overcome in Florida. The property crash has hit the region hard. Florida is second only to Nevada in the number of repossessions and the state now has so many abandoned homes that the authorities are concerned the untended properties will create an extra hazard during the forthcoming hurricane season.

Destiny is not selling homes yet but it will need to raise cash - cash that is still in short supply. The credit crunch "hasn't affected us because we are not putting infrastructure into the ground at this time", said Pugliese, adding that Subway's Deluca had been "very important" in the funding of the project. "Right now, we are self-funding," he said, but Destiny would look at raising money through bond issues and possibly through taxes on residents.

Eric Draper, policy director of Audubon, the conservation group, said that "conceptually" he was supportive of Destiny's plans to set aside land for ecosystems. He said its scientists had seen early plans but were "not aware of specifics at this point". Charles Lee, Florida-based director of advocacy for Audubon, was less diplomatic. Destiny's plans had become "nebulous", he said. "They have gone through a couple of team leaders and, with each change in the team, things have become fuzzier and fuzzier," he said. "It's flopping around like a fish on the land."

Pugliese responded: "I don't understand what he's talking about. Our plans have only gotten better. We have studied every square inch so that we know where wildlife corridors are, where wetlands are, where environmentally sensitive plants are and animals. We understand the land and have only taken areas for building that have been disturbed and cannot be saved.

"There is always going to be someone who doesn't want you to build anything, ever again. They are the last ones to move to Florida and they don't want anyone else to come here. But that's not very practical and that's not going to happen."

Given Florida's demographics, the odds are that some new development will rise out of Yeehaw Junction. The credit crisis will ease, property markets will recover, green businesses will want new homes. As Pugliese goes back to the drawing board, though, a bigger question remains: how green is Destiny's destiny?

JULY 7, 2009, 9:01 AM Pickens Drops Plan for Largest Wind Farm

By KA TE GALBRAITH Reuters T. Boone Pickens' widely advertised plan to build the world's largest wind farm has been abandoned. T. Boone Pickens, the legendary oilman, has abandoned his plan to build the world's largest wind farm, according to a report in The Dallas Morning News that was confirmed by a spokesman for Mr. Pickens. The report states that Mr. Pickens will instead build a handful of smaller wind farms around the Midwest. Possible locations include Wisconsin, Oklahoma and Kansas and Texas. The Texas Panhandle was to be the site of the original wind farm. Mr. Pickens has said in the past that he had to delay his wind plans due to the financing difficulties that have hit wind farms across the country in the last nine months, along with a fall-off in natural gas prices. The latest scaling back, according to the Dallas paper, is due to transmission constraints. Texas plans to build about $5 billion worth of transmission lines to help carry the wind from the western part of the state, but they will not go where Mr. Pickens had hoped. Originally, he had even planned to build his own transmission lines. Meanwhile, Mr. Pickens has embarked on a round of media appearances to commemorate the one-year anniversary of the launch of his energy plan, which promotes natural gas as a fuel for cars - as well as greater use of wind energy in electricity generation - as a method of getting the nation off of foreign oil.

In an early-morning appearance on Squawk Box, a CNBC show, Mr. Pickens said that while the climate bill was "extremely important and all," he was still focused on getting the nation off foreign oil. "The security issue doesn't go away," he said.

By Ed Timberlake

Special to the Sentinel

June 24, 2009

We Floridians recently learned that we will face a major ', growth-management decision on the 2010 ballot. Dubbed ~, Amendment 4, or Hometown Democracy by its ,~ supporters, this proposed rewrite of the Florida ~ would require that voters decide all technical ',/ land-use changes at the ballot box. /

In her June 10 My Word column ("Developers win, citizens lose"), Amendment 4 supporter Rebecca Eagan / contends that the amendment will "put some say-so in the / hands of residents." I. / The Florida town of St. Pete Beach already put its trust in / /// these claims, passing a local version of Amendment 4 / only to learn that the proposal is not designed to empower voters. It is designed to stop growth, regardless of what voters decide. When St. Pete Beach residents approved a new, pro-growth plan, local anti-growth advocates mounted numerous legal challenges to overturn the very elections they once demanded.

St. Pete Beach demonstrates that Amendment 4 is not truly a growth-management proposal. It is a proposal to eliminate growth management and replace it with nonstop political campaigning. Under this amendment, some of Florida's most important growth decisions would be relegated to 30-second bites and 20-cent political-mail pieces.

While Amendment 4 supporters claim that their proposal would reduce the influence of special interests, the opposite would be true. Under Amendment 4, special-interest groups on both sides of the development debate would gain more influence over the planning process.

Neighborhood associations, developers, elected officials and planning groups would no longer be encouraged to cooperate on land-use changes. Instead, they would be encouraged to "go for broke" by writing the most extreme proposals and hiring media consultants to sell them.

Amendment 4 would sideline ordinary citizens and push special interests on both sides to seek conflict rather than compromise.

The result: Campaign consultants would quickly replace public planners as the "experts" on growth

http://www.orlandosentinel.com/news/opinion/orl-edpmyword-hometown-democracy-060... 6/24/2009 My Word: Taking 'smart' out of growth -- OrlandoSentinel.com Page 2 of2 management. Citizens without the deep pockets necessary to wage high-priced media campaigns would be left without recourse or representation. Ultimately, many communities would suffer one of two extremes: rampant overdevelopment or no growth at all.

Some have argued that recent legislation from Tallahassee has suddenly made Amendment 4 a good idea. However, no policy proposal or new legislation - good or bad - will miraculously repair the fundamental problems with Amendment 4.

And while reasonable Floridians can be upset when the current system falls short, that alone is no justification to support Amendment 4 - a proposal that would dismantle smart growth altogether.

Ed Timberlake of Winter Park is the local chairman of Floridians for Smarter Growth.

State outlines ocean 'zoning'

By Richard Gaines Staff Writer

July 01, 2009 05:50 am

Gov. Deval Patrick's administration yesterday released a draft zoning plan for the management of the inshore state ocean waters - one that bars development off the outside of Cape Cod while allowing regulated use of the waters around Cape Ann.

The plan also designates two areas off the south coast - one off Cutty hunk, the other southwest of Martha's Vineyard - as the only locations for possible commercial-sized wind turbines.

For the rest of the state waters - three-tenths of a mile seaward of the mean high water line, and excluding most developed harbor and port areas out to the three-mile border of the federal exclusive economic zone - development would be regulated and controlled by the use of performance standards. That would cover all state waters around Cape Ann.

The draft plan was introduced yesterday in a teleconference by Ian Bowles, the state's secretary of energy and environmental affairs.

It must undergo public and legislative reviews. But the plan - as defined in the state Oceans Act, the first to call for use and zoning plans for state ocean waters - does not need legislative approval. The plan was authorized by a legislative act signed by the governor in May 2008.

Bowles said the plan went through 18 public meetings and was modified by input from an advisory committee that included Mayor Carolyn Kirk and a legislative advisory panel that included state Sen. Bruce Tarr.

Input was also taken from a Science Advisory Committee.

Kirk characterized the plan as "conservative," in that the administration of Gov. Deval Patrick declined to fine-tune the potential uses of the state waters by the use of sub-zones. She also said that, by leading the federal government into the zoning process, the state hopes to influence federal decisions in the offing. President Obama announced plans to create a federal water zoning approach last month.

For the majority of the state waters, Bowles said the plan creates performance standards for different uses, and sets aside areas of special ecological designations.

Any proposed uses would be measured against the special designations, such as whale and fish habitat.

"The multi-use areas ... direct development away from high-value resources and concentrations of existing water-dependent uses," the draft executive summary of the plan states.

"The management areas and standards established by the ocean plan will guide resource users and managers and the public in the protection and wise use of our marine waters," said Deerin Babb-Brott, the state's assistant secretary for oceans. "And going forward, the commonwealth will refine the ocean plan as we continue to develop and incorporate new knowledge, ensuring that it is an adaptive, living document."

The no-development area is around the outer side of Cape Cod adjacent to the Cape Cod National Seashore.

The plan vetoes a proposed location in Buzzards Bay of the commercial South Coast wind project because "it conflicts with fishing and boating," said Bowles. But it offers the developer an alternative site southwest of Cuttyhunk.

"Massachusetts waters are rich with natural resources and busy with human activity," the executive summary states. By the terms of the enabling legislation, the ocean becomes a public trust resource.

That commonwealth concept, however, is at odds with action taken last week by the New Fishery Management Council, which voted to convert the bounty of the sea from a commonly held resource into negotiable catch shares, to be distributed to federal fishing permit holders primarily fishing in harvesting collectives known as sectors.

July 1, 2009 Organic Farms as Subdivision Amenities

By ALEC APPELBAUM

SOUTH BURLINGTON, Vt. - The bewildered Iowan who converted his farm into a ballpark in "Field of Dreams" in 1989 might reverse the move today. From Vermont to central California, developers are creating subdivisions around organic farms to attract buyers. If you plant it, these developers believe, they will buy.

Increasingly, subdivisions, usually master-planned developments at which buyers buy home sites or raw land, have been treating farms as an amenity. "There are currently at least 200 projects that include agriculture as a key community component," said Ed McMahon, a senior fellow with the Urban Land Institute.

In 2001, investors in a stalled project with an agriculture component outside Boise, ldahQ, recruited Frank Martin to take over their development. Mr. Martin had been a manager at Prairie Crossing, a subdivision built around a working farm in the Chicago suburb of Gray's Lake.

By 2008, the 1,756-acre Idaho development had repaid a $12 million loan from the financing arm of General Motors; realized a 61 percent premium on the sale of its sites, compared with similar parcels with no farm nearby; and claimed a $2.8 million pretax profit by selling 785 of 800 lots, while keeping 1,000 acres open.

The success of the two developments proved the concept, and like-minded developers around the country are trying it on inactive farmland and even on formerly industrial land.

"Open space improves the return for a developer," Mr. McMahon said. "We have 16,000 subdivisions around golf courses, where developers found they could charge a lot premium of 25 to 50 percent over comparable tract subdivision. But most people who live on golf courses do not play golf."

The latest variation on this is blending in working agriculture, Mr. McMahon said. Living with a farm, he noted, can bring a buyer permanent views, wholesome activities for children, access to walking and riding trails and inclusion in an epicurean club.

Here in South Burlington, David Scheuer, a developer, runs a firm called Retrovest that specializes in pedestrian-friendly subdivisions. He is adapting the Prairie Crossing model with a 220-acre project called South Village, where he eventually hopes to sell 334 homes at prices of $200,000 to nearly $700,000.

A 16-acre segment of the property, which was not previously used for farming, is now producing lettuce, garlic and other crops, which are harvested for sale to homeowners and others from the area who have joined a local community-supported agriculture group. "Agriculture can be the caboose on the train," Mr. Scheuer said, "and housing can be the engine." Once he is selling 20 homes a year, he said, he hopes to pay the salary http://www.nytimes.com/2009/07/0 l/business/energy-environment/0 I farm.html? _r= 1&part... 7/9/2009 Home Buyers Are Drawn to Nearby Organic Farms - NYTimes.com Page 2 of3

of a full-time farmer.

At the 220-home Serenbe project near Atlanta's airport, the cachet oflocal produce has been added to retiree-friendly businesses, including galleries, a bed-and-breakfast and three restaurants. Steve Nygren, an Atlanta restaurant impresario, started the project on his 900-acre farm.

"We preserved forest and pasture, and there were 20 acres left for an organic farm, and we also have a large wildflower meadow," Mr. Nygren said. "We've set up the design so 90 percent of the houses back up to one of those natural amenities. We are selling our lots at a premium that's probably three times what the raw lot is."

Mr. Nygren has focused Serenbe's second phase on "edible landscaping," he said. "At street corners there are blueberry bushes, fig bushes, peach trees and spotted apple trees."

And in more rural areas, developers are buying big tracts of ranchland and selling small lots to buyers. David Hamilton, a principal in Qroe Farm Preservation Development, is pursuing this approach at the sprawling Bundoran Farm subdivision outside Charlottesville, Va. "We go through a mapping process to see functional agricultural units, if they are good for apples or cattle or whatever, then see where they go together.

Qroe (pronounced "crow") leases some of the land to cattle ranchers and orchard managers. A buyer of a home site hires a builder from a developer-approved list. Qroe is marketing lots of under four acres for less than $400,000, Mr. Hamilton said. "You're buying two acres but access to 2,000 acres," he said.

Grady Lewis, a Virginia native who closed on his 2.67-acre lot in 2007 and moved into his 1,800-square-foot house at Bundoran with his wife, Diane, this spring, responded to Qroe's idea of preserving "rural quality."

When all the house lots have been sold, the rental income from the farmers, which currently goes to the developer, will go to the homeowners' association. "Beyond it being great to see 300 head of Angus scattered across the acres," Mr. Lewis said, "it's a cash-flow issue."

Farm-focused developers must juggle financing a few houses at a time with cultivating crops on a yearly cycle, so many rent farmland to professionals.

Mr. Scheuer hired David Miskell, a veteran Vermont organic farmer with a white beard, to help convert the property's damaged soil. Working organically, which Mr. Miskell translates to "a lot of manure," he and two hired farmers replenished the soil with enough nitrogen to grow greens, root crops and sunflowers this year. "Upfront costs are high to build fertility, but I doubt they are any higher than any golf course," Mr. Miskell said. "Mainly, wc arc growing healthy organic food for healthy homeowners."

Gus Burti, who lives with his wife, Maggie, at South Village, says the farm helped clinch their purchase after a two-year search of the area. "We used to live on a golf course in North Carolina and wanted to come back to Vermont," he said. "My wife loves to cook, and we like that it's organic."

Because a farm's open space takes land from the tax rolls, a developer often donates some land for public use. Hidden Springs sold a parcel to the local school district for $10,000, and Retrovest deeded South Burlington some land with road frontage for a soccer field and playground.

But developers stress that their housing units should stand on their own for the idea of the farm-as-amenity

to click.

Mr. Scheuer, driving around a competing subdivision with nondescript open space, is convinced that despite the work that goes into a farm, it adds real value to a development. Scoffing at the look of the traditional development, he said, "IfI have to do this to make money, I'll find some other way to spend my time."
