CITY OF FOLLY BEACH Memo: Moratorium Ordinances, Work Session Aaron Pope, Zoning Directory & Spencer Wetmore, City Administrator

The City Council Work Session includes discussion of the first nine policies to come from the joint Planning Commission/City Council work sessions related to the moratorium. These are draft ordinances for discussion only. They are included in the work session to manage the work flow and discuss some of the smaller policy changes before the larger policies are introduced. These ordinances do not yet include policies related to the marsh or beach setback or septic regulations, which are all still being discussed in joint work sessions.

Zoning Ordinances Ordinances in our zoning code (Chapter 160) would be remanded at the regular January Council meeting (January 8, 2019) and made pending/enforceable prior to the public hearing. Changes and recommendations from the public hearings would come back to City Council in March/April for 1st & 2nd reading

These will be up for 1st and 2nd reading in January/February to become enforceable prior to the moratorium expiration.

• Chapter 152: Increasing from 1’ to 2’ of freeboard above BFE • Chapter 151.23: Requiring beach seawalls to be built to 8’; beach revetments to have sand and vegetation on top to 10’; requiring

The City Council of Folly Beach, South Carolina, duly assembled, hereby ordains that the Folly Beach Code of Ordinance be amended as follows:

NOTE: Deleted material stuck through, new material in red:

SECTION 163.02-02 RESIDENTIAL DISTRICTS AND SPECIFIC PURPOSES.

(A) Single-Family Residential (RSF). The RSF District is established as a district in which the principal use of land is single-family detached residential development at moderate densities. The regulations of this district are intended to prohibit any use that substantially interferes with the development of single-family detached dwellings and that is detrimental to the quiet residential nature of the district. Complementary uses customarily found in residential zoning districts, such as community centers, religious institutions under 3,500 square feet in area, private docks, parks, and playgrounds are permitted. Short term rentals are allowed subject to the requirements of Chapter 117 of the city code of ordinances. Accessory dwelling units are not permitted. The minimum lot area for development is 10,500 square feet and the maximum density allowed is four dwelling units per acre. Maximum lot coverage in the district is 35% of a lots high ground area.

(B) Two-Family Residential (RTF). The RTF District is established as a district in which the principal use of land is single-family detached and two-family residential development at moderate densities. The regulations of this district are intended to prohibit any use that interferes with the quiet residential nature of the district. Complementary uses customarily found in residential zoning districts, including religious institutions under 3,500 square feet in area, civic institutions less than 5,000 square feet in area, community centers, private docks, parks, and playgrounds are permitted. Short term rentals are allowed subject to the requirements of Chapter 117 of the city code of ordinances. Accessory dwelling units are not permitted.

lots, provided the newly created lots extend no more than five feet from the building envelope. Maximum lot coverage in the district is 35% of a lots high ground area.

(C) Multi-Family Residential (RMF). The RMF district is established and intended to encourage a wide range of medium and high density housing types, especially multiple family development, although single-family dwellings and two-family dwellings are also allowed. In addition to the range of complementary uses typically found in residential zoning districts, limited neighborhood-serving nonresidential uses (e.g., day cares, parking lots, and Type I retail uses) are permitted as special exception uses (See Table 164.01, Table of Allowed Uses), but accessory dwelling units are prohibited. Short term rentals are allowed subject to the requirements of Chapter 117 of the city code of ordinances. The minimum lot area for all permitted uses (except townhouses) is 10,500 square feet.

Multi-family development shall include at least 3,500 square feet of lot area per dwelling unit, but in no instance shall multi-family development exceed 12 units per acre. Maximum lot coverage in the district is 35% of a sites total high ground.

(D) Marsh Island Residential (MR). The MR District is established as a district in which the principal use of land is single-family detached residential development with minimal impact on sensitive landscapes. The regulations of this district are intended to prohibit any use that substantially interferes with the development of single-family detached dwellings and that is detrimental to the quiet residential, scenic, and environmentally sensitive nature and of the district. Complementary uses customarily found in residential zoning districts such private recreational docks and accessory structures. Short term rentals are prohibited. Accessory dwelling units are not permitted. The minimum lot area for development is 14,500 square feet and the maximum density allowed is three dwelling units per acre.

(3) New or substantially improved bulkheads and associated riprap constructed along the marsh after March 1, 2019 and placed wholly or partly within the required setback from the critical line must be constructed so that the top of the vertical bulkhead is no higher than the adjacent grade on the landward face. Any portion of the critical line setback disturbed for the repair of an existing bulkhead or the construction of a new or substantially improved bulkhead after March 1, 2019 shall be filled such that the finished grade of the area of disturbance is at an elevation similar to the grade on the landward side and planted with appropriate vegetation as designated by the Building Official. (4) Construction of bulkheads, seawalls, and revetments as well as the placement of riprap shall require a permit from the City and proof of coordination with SCDHEC OCRM in the form of a current survey showing a certified baseline or critical line as necessary. (5) No portion of a bulkhead, riprap, seawall, or revetment shall be placed seaward of the baseline or beyond the critical line without approval of SCDHEC OCRM. (3) (6) Bulkheads, riprap, and seawalls, and revetments shall either be designed by a professional engineer, registered in the state or and shall meet the following minimum standards: (a) Bulkheads and seawall requirements. 1. Materials. i. Reinforced concrete six inches thick designed with adequate reinforcement to achieve a 3,000 psi 28-day strength. ii. Pressure treated wood three inches by ten inches or three inches by 12 inches tongue and groove, or a double thickness of two inches sheeting with staggered joints is acceptable for walls with a standing height of under four feet. 2. Depth of embedment. The depth of embedment of a bulkhead shall be at least equal the height of the wall above the ground. An allowance should be made to account for erosion scour after construction. 3. Tiebacks. Tiebacks shall be located at a spacing of eight feet or less and attached to secure anchors capable of withstanding a 2,000- pound pull. Tiebacks may be deleted if a revetment is placed seaward of the bulkhead. 4. Backfill. The bulkhead will be backfilled with a compacted clean granular material to provide adequate support. “Clean” shall mean no metal, wood or glass. 5. Protection from flanking. Bulkheads will either tie into adjacent bulkheads or will have an adequate return wall meeting the same requirements as the seaward wall. 6. Seawalls. No new vertical unfaced seawall shall be allowed on the ocean front. Any new vertical seawall surface must be faced with a sloping revetment. 7. A permit from the City Building Department is required for all seawalls on the beachfront. For any activities that may fall on or seaward of the baseline, proof of coordination with SCDHEC is required. (b) Revetments. 1. Materials. Broken pavement, blocks or bricks are not acceptable materials for the outer layer of a revetment. However, they may be used for under layers. The outside of a

revetment shall consist of at least two layers of armor stones whose pieces shall range in weight from a minimum of ten pounds to a maximum of 250 pounds; at least 60% shall weigh more than 150 pounds. 2. Construction. Revetments shall be underlain with a commercial grade porous filter cloth designed for ocean erosion control and approved by the Building Official (i.e. Phillips 66 stock or equal), and placed on a slope no steeper than one vertical to two horizontal. The toe at the revetment shall extend at least two feet below the existing beach elevation and the ends shall be protected from flanking. (c) Riprap. 1. Materials. Broken pavement, blocks or bricks are not acceptable materials for riprap. 2. Design. Riprap placement must be designed by a licensed marine contractor or a designed professional registered in the State of South Carolina. (B) (C) (1) Adherence to these minimum standards will not guarantee that the bulkhead, riprap, seawall or revetment will withstand wave or tide forces or that it will protect against beach erosion. (2) These standards are to prevent unsightly and inferior structures that would have little or no chance of success, and could possibly become a hazard or nuisance on the beach.

City of Folly Beach

To: Mayor and Council From: Aaron Pope, AICP Date: 9/11/2018 RE; Parking Ordinance 12-18 Mayor and Council:

1. Prior to 2010 there were no parking requirements for lots in the DC (Downtown Commercial) Zoning District.

2. In 2010 the parking requirements for all other zoning districts were applied to the DC District. The parking requirements applied to new construction and change of use. Due to the historic development pattern of Center Street (small lots, high lot coverage, limited street access) the parking requirement for new uses essentially prohibited use changes in the district. Also, new development was much more difficult. There were few lots that had room to add parking at the rate required.

3. In 2016 City Council reinstated the parking exemption for the DC District in order to encourage development in the DC District.

4. After the parking requirements reverted to the pre-2010 standard the City received several applications for new development including: an inn at 87 Center Street, 2 duplexes at 105 East Erie/108 East Cooper, and a new restaurant at 106 E Ashley. This was the first significant wave of development in the commercial district since the Great Recession. Each of these projects completed Final Review by the Design Review Board and became vested against future changes in the zoning code prior to their construction.

5. In 2017, the development trend continued with applications to the DRB for an Inn at 105 East Huron and 2 new residential units at 106 East Hudson.

29

Page 30: CITY OF FOLLY BEACH · 12/4/2018  · CITY OF FOLLY BEACH . Tim Goodwin, Mayor . Folly Beach, SC 29439 . (P) 843-588-2447 (F) 843-588-7016. Eddie Ellis, Mayor Pro Tem Teresa Marshall,

6. After these projects were submitted for conceptual review the City reestablished parking requirements for residential and tourism accommodations uses in the DC District. The purpose behind this reinstatement was to acknowledge that these use types would, by nature of their use, require vehicle access and parking. In order to live in or rent a residential unit on Folly Beach, a car is needed. Both projects complied with the reinstated parking requirements.

7. Throughout the remainder of 2017 and 2018 there has been continued interest in redevelopment of parcels in the commercial district. No formal applications have been made, but several of the projects proposed could maximize zoning allowances including no parking requirements.

8. Based on the results of the 2016 exemption, staff believes that the City should further refine the exemption so that only those uses which can be supported by foot traffic, which generate very limited parking demand, or which the City wishes to encourage should be allowed without parking. High intensity uses allowed in the DC District that have high parking demand should not be exempt.

9. Staff recommends that the DC parking exemption be further limited to that only Retail 1 and Office uses be allowed without parking. This would mean parking requirements apply to residential, accommodation, restaurant, bar, or any other intense commercial use.

10. Type I retail uses are small scale uses that are less than 2,500 square feet and deal in personal services or retail sales. These uses are similar to the existing small retail and service establishments on the beach which are generally supported by foot traffic and visitors in the DC District who do not specifically drive to Folly to visit a particular place. Instead, they are part of the general shopping experience of the district in which multiple establishments are visited at once.

11. Office uses are home to professional services such as lawyers, accountants, sales, engineers, architects, and other uses that focus on providing business support. These uses do generally generate parking demand, but it is relatively low, and the hours are limited. The lack of office space on Folly has been identified in the Comp Plan as a community need to address. Staff feels that creating an exemption for these uses would further the City goal of encouraging office development

(C) Uses with variable parking demand characteristics. Uses that reference this subsection in Table 166.07, Minimum Off-Street Parking Standards, have widely varying parking demand characteristics, making it difficult to establish a single off-street parking standard.

Such a study shall include estimates of parking demand based on recommendations of the Institute of Traffic Engineers (ITE), or other acceptable estimates as approved by the Zoning Administrator and should include other reliable data collected from uses or combinations of uses that are the same as or comparable with the proposed use. Comparability will be determined by density, scale, bulk, area, type of activity, and location. The study shall document the source of data used to develop the recommendations. (D) Mixed uses. Unless otherwise approved, lots containing more than one use shall provide parking spaces in an amount equal to the total of the standards for all individual uses. This provision shall not limit the ability to submit an alternative parking plan (See 166.06-09) to reduce the minimum number of required off-street parking spaces in recognition of different operating hours or peak business periods. (E) Maximum number of spaces permitted. For any use categorized as a Commercial Use in Table 166.07, Minimum Off-Street Parking Standards, off-street vehicle parking spaces shall not be provided in an amount that is more than 125% of the minimum standards established in Table 166.07, Minimum Off-Street Parking Standards, except in the

To: Mayor and Council From: Aaron Pope, AICP Date: 9/11/2018 RE; Parking Ordinance 13-18 Mayor/Council The draft ordinance to clarify commercial parking areas does two things:

1) Clearly defines what is and “Commercial Parking”. Right now, “Parking” is a land use type that is only allowed in the Commercial Districts. This ordinance would amend the use name to “Commercial Parking” and define it as any exchange of parking for compensation. That would mean that any rental of a parking space for money would be “Commercial Parking” and, since that use is not allowed in the Residential Districts, it would be clearly prohibited. This also requires an amendment to the Table of Allowable Uses to remove “Commercial Parking” in the RMF and MC Districts.

2) Restricts the “Commercial Parking” use to only be a primary use. This means that the only “Commercial Parking” allowed would be on lots that are used primarily as parking lots. The rental of parking spaces that are mean for other primary uses would be prohibited even in the Commercial Districts. This would eliminate the rental of any extra parking spaces or parking spaces on any other property than an actual parking lot.

City of Folly Beach

To: Mayor and City Council From: Aaron Pope, AICP Date: 10/1/18 RE: Demolition Fee Increase In July of 2017 the PC established a subcommittee to develop incentives to encourage the preservation of historic structures on the island. This project originated from the 2015 Comprehensive Plan which established goals and implementation strategies that call for “municipal support of preserving our historic landmarks and older commercial and residential structures that contribute to the history of Folly Beach”, “incentives for the use of existing structures and vernacular design in new construction” and encouraging “owners of older homes to elevate vs. demolish”. Among the final proposals sent to Council was an increase in the demolition fees for older structures. The goal was to make the fee high enough that demolishing a historic structure would incur costs closer to the costs of elevating or preserving the building. This will create an incentive for people to save buildings they would otherwise remove.

The proposed ordinance includes a significantly higher fee of $5,000 to demolish a historic structure as opposed to the existing $100 fee. It also includes exemptions for those instances where the structure cannot be saved due to structural issues or has health/safety issues.
