of 34 units to the north of the existing building and by remodeling current storage space within the building to accommodate four additional units. The new addition to the north of the existing building will be constructed on the site of the existing parking lot. The land to be acquired to the north of Rosewood Estates would be used for new parking for the project. To accomplish this, the existing single family dwelling, duplex, and marina rental building will all be removed. When Rosewood Estates was first approved, a variance for density was granted. The projects apartment units average size is 455 sq. ft. with units varying in size from 363 s. ft. to 629 s. ft. The additional units will be similar in size. The need for a variance application pertains to the requirement in the R-3A Multi-Family Residence District, limiting multi- family dwellings to a maximum of 24 units per structure. The existing parking at the present Rosewood Estates provides for 35 cars. This is a ratio.. of 35 spaces to 68 units or 51%. The proposed new addition will have a total of 60 parking spaces available. This is a ratio of 60 spaces to 106 units or 57%. None of the residents at Rosewood Estates drive automobiles. Parking is utilized by employees and visitors to Rosewood Estates. Because the additional 38 units will not require substantially more staff members, parking should actually improve. The project will continue to use the current drainage system for the drive in front of the existing building. A catch basin will be located in the courtyard between the existing building and the new addition, which would drain under the new link to the woodlands behind the building. A new skimmer system will be placed at the north end of the new parking lot. This system will treat all surface water coming from the parking lot prior to entering the lake. Rooftop air conditioning unit will be placed on top of the link between the new and existing buildings. The unit will be screened by a parapet exactly like the system screening the mechanical units on the existing building. Trash collection from Rosewood Estates will continue to be handled in the same manner. Collection is made from an enclosed dumpster located at the service door near the kitchen. If necessary, the frequency of collection will be increased to handle the additional trash generated by the proposed new 38 units.
