Hardware: All door hardware should be the same material and finish. Hardware finishes need to be <br /> maintained or replaced if they become dissimilar. <br /> When installed, door knockers must be centered between the sides of the door and <br /> mounted between 60 and 66 inches above the bottom of the door. Door knockers are <br /> discouraged to be used on doors which contain glass lites. <br /> General: Boarded up doors, except during construction, during a reasonable repair period, <br /> subsequent to a weather advisory, or as required by the City to secure the residence are <br /> not permitted. <br /> Façade facing the Primary Streets without a door is not permitted. "Fake" door(s) to <br /> achieve facade requirements or as part of the design will need to be submitted for review <br /> by the Zephyrhills CRA Director for comment and/or approval. <br /> Driveways / Walkways <br /> Driveways and Walkways are essential in suburban and urban residences. Owners are strongly <br /> discouraged from constructing large areas of impervious area on their lot. Large areas of <br /> impervious hardscape create "heat islands" and increase stormwater runoff. This includes driveways <br /> and walkways that are on private lots. <br /> A patio and walkways significantly increase the usable "living space" of a residence. Allowing the owners <br /> of the residence comfortable access to enjoy the beautiful weather that Florida provides year around. <br /> Driveways: Pavement Strips are encouraged (versus driveways) as they soften the view of hardscape <br /> and allow more surface area for rainwater to recharge the aquafer. <br /> Loose materials such as but not limited to crush rock, gravel, and shell are not permitted <br /> materials for driveways. Unpaved dirt driveways are not permitted. Driveways and Paved <br /> Strips shall be constructed with approved materials which include, concrete, brick pavers <br /> and flagstone (or similar). <br /> When selecting a color, choose one which complements the architecture of the building <br /> or the natural features of the landscaping within the lot. Pervious materials are preferred <br /> over impervious materials. <br /> When brick pavers (or similar small dimension materials) are installed, a concrete edge <br /> (or ribbon curb) must be installed to prevent pavers from shifting. The top of the concrete <br /> must be flush with the pavers and may not be wider than 2". No plastic, vinyl, or wood <br /> borders or edging are permitted. <br /> Other than clear sealers, other surface coatings, such as paint, are not permitted. Surfaces <br /> are to remain as natural in appearance as possible. <br /> Driveway width is limited to 10' except for the area in front of the garage doors. Within <br /> 15'of the overhead garage doors,the driveway must be the width of the overhead garage <br /> doors. The driveway width is to be measured perpendicular from outside edge to outside <br /> edge. <br /> Gateway Subdivision Design Standards 13 <br />
