Technical Review Committee September 17, 2009 Page 2 of 3 IV. New Business Continued. A. Street Closing Petition 09- 006 -TRC continued. Mr. Brisson addressed the Committee, stating he was very impressed with the reasons stated in the application for the street closing. Mr. Brisson further stated LaRue Planning Staff recommends approval. Mr. Jim Threewits, Deputy County Commissioner for Okeechobee County asked the Board whether they had any questions? Administrator Whitehall questioned the comments from Embarq. Mr. Threewits stated the comments of concern were addressing 4th, which is not part of the petition. OUA Nothing Health Not present. FC Accessibility to the proposed building? Mr. Threewits replied yes, on the East side. BO No comments. CE Always feel the City should not give away property, but this project is a benefit to the City as well as the County. PW No issues. PD No Issues. Chief Davis made a motion to recommend approval to the Planning Board for Street Closing Petition 09- 006 -TRC to close NW 7th Avenue from NW 4th Street to NW 6th Street, and close NW 5th Street to dead -end, seconded by; Chief Smith. Motion carried unanimously. B. Outdoor vehicle sales Lot 09 -007 TRC. The application was submitted by Linda L. Bridges for site plan review for outdoor vehicle sales lot located at 920 NW Park Street Senior Planner. Mr. Brisson presented the Staff report of approval with four issues needing to be addressed by the applicant. Mr. Brisson went on to state the development of the property is consistent with the surrounding commercial property with the exception of one lot that is zoned RMF. Traffic does not appear to be a problem. The issues are with the width of the drive through the property being shown as 10 feet which should at least be 12 feet, the placement of the dumpster, no sidewalk shown on 10th and no lighting plan was submitted. Mr. Larry Bennett of H.L. Bennet, of LaBeIIe, Florida addressed the Committee representing the applicant. Mr. Bennett stated all the issues would be addressed. Mrs. Linda Bridges, the applicant stated the business across the street had the same type dumpster placement. Mr. Whitehall replied that is a situation the City is trying to address. Mrs. Bridges also stated she was planning on putting a spot Tight on the pole by the dumpster. Mr. Brisson interjected, the applicant does not need to supply a lighting plan, but does have to comply with the code. Mr. Whitehall expressed concern regarding the spotlight and instructed the applicant to make sure this would cause no concem with the surrounding neighbors or drivers on SR 70. Mrs. Bridges stated the one -way, 10 foot driveway through the property was for safety and would provide for open space. Administrator Whitehall then asked for concems from the Committee: OUA No issues. IV. New Business Continued. B. Outdoor vehicle sales Lot 09 -007 TRC continued. BO Drive needs to be at least 12 foot wide, and dumpster placement needs to be addressed, also the configuration off 10th is a little peculiar. Mr. Whitehall then interjected, the drive needs to be 20 foot wide with two lanes, and the dumpster needs to be relocated. The Building Official then addressed the residence, stating there needs to be firewalls and such. Mr. Bennett replied, yes. Mr. Schaub inquired of the applicant why the necessity for the residence? Mrs. Bridges replied that she lives in Ft. Lauderdale and when she comes to Okeechobee she wants a place to stay. Engineer Bermudez instructed Mrs. Bridges to check with the DMV when getting the license to sell cars to be sure that more than one business is allowed on the same property. Mr. Schaub inquired if Mrs. Bridges would be leasing the businesses? She replied, yes. Possibly having an office, when someone buys a car, they can get temporary tags. FD Really need 20 foot for the fire truck to maneuver through the property. Ten foot would be adequate as long as there was nothing on either side of the drive and the one oak tree that is on the property has to allow clearance of at least 13' 8" for the height of the truck. Administrator Whitehall said it was reasonable of the Committee to request the 20 foot, two -way drive though, this would improve everything all around. Mr. Bennett said one -way was preferable, but two -way would not be a problem either. The Fire Chief stated he has a problem with the gates on both ends of the drive, if the Fire Department should need to access the property, the gate(s) may be destroyed. CE Sidewalk along 10th a must. PW The swale may need to be graded to allow for the sidewalk, also concerned about first pipe off SR 70. Driveway should be widened and may need to extend drainage pipe North. PD Fence around the perimeter with locked gates at night is a concem. If the officers do not have access to patrol the lot, break -ins could be a problem. Also need adequate lighting. Chief Smith made a motion to approve final site plan review for outdoor vehicle sales, convert existing carport into vehicle sales office, (362 s.f.) remodel existing residence, (700 s.f.) for professional office and remaining, (600 s.f.) for single family dwelling unit for property located at 920 NW Park Street with the following contingencies: Lighting to be reviewed with the Planner and the Engineer, 2 lane drive through, at least 20 foot in width with adequate radius off NW 10th Avenue, sidewalk installed on NW 10th Avenue and relocation of the dumpster; seconded by Engineer Bermudez. Motion carried unanimously. V. Adjournment Chairperson.

Page 2 Staff Report Application No.: 09 -006- TRC/09- 002-SC Street Vacation Review Applicant's Name: Okeechobee County BOCC (EOC) Section 78 -33 of the Land Development Regulations requires the reviewing bodies to find that an application for vacating rights -of -way meets the following requirements. The Applicant has provided brief written responses to each of the required findings. For your consideration, the Applicant's responses are provided in Arial typeface, followed by Staff comments. 1. Proposed vacation is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. "Yes, this will afford Okeechobee County to establish connectivity between multiple facilities; Okeechobee Sheriffs Office, Fire Rescue station #1 and the currently proposed Okeechobee Emergency Operations Center." Staff agrees. Both the Public and Industrial Future Land Use Categories contemplate public uses. 2. Right -of -way to be vacated is not the sole access to any property and the remaining access is not an easement. "Correct, Okeechobee County is the sole owner from NW 5 Ave. west to CSX Uptown Spur and from NW 6 St. south to the unimproved portion of NW 4 Street." Staff agrees. The requested vacation will not eliminate sole access to any property not owned by Okeechobee County. 3. Proposed vacation is in the public interest and provides a benefit to the City. "Yes, these rights -of -ways divide land currently owned by Okeechobee County which limits their functional use. We are currently proposing to construct the Okeechobee County Emergency Operations Center and the r -o -w's need to be vacated for that purpose. Additionally, this vacation request will provide for a "Public Safety Complex." Staff agrees. The requested vacation is in the public interest and provides a benefit to the City in the form of improved countywide emergency operations services. 4. Proposed vacation would not jeopardize the location of any utility. "Correct, all utility issues have been addressed with the appropriate agencies, see attached letters and utility sheet. The R. E. Hamrick Trust u/w has agreed to sell the Trust Revisionary Interest for these two (2) R- O -W's, see attached vacant land contract."

Bennett, 1.E. 32534 ?f /o9 NARRATIVE INTRODUCTION The subject property is being permitted by Linda L. Bridges Owner, and is being permitted for the site improvement for the proposed building remodel project. The site is zoned CHV (commercial) and is currently used as a legal non conforming use (SFR) single family residence. A special exception approved under petition #09- 002 -SE allows a mix of uses on the property including an outdoor vehicle sales lot and use of portions of the existing building as a used car sales office, real estate office, and as a dwelling unit for the owner. Currently the existing use provides grass parking in the front of the building. The existing and proposed building parking requirement can be met with additional parking on -site. Site improvement would include the required parking, landscaping, and the required drainage system, etc. The location of the proposed development is west of the SR70 and US441 intersection in Okeechobee in Section 16, Township 37 South, Range, 35 East, in City of Okeechobee Okeechobee County. EXISTING CONDITIONS The property is approximately 0.65 acres an is owned by Linda L. Bridges. The project limits are currently occupied by a 1,837 s.f. wood framed building (single family unit) and two storage shed units that will remain on site. The site is surrounded by commercial (CHV) zoned district to the south, west, east northwest, a SFR zone to the northeast. State Road 70 is to the south of the property. Ne 10 Avenue is to the west of the property. The soil mapping unit over the site is Immokalee sand (11), based on information obtained from the Soil Conservation Service (SCS) Soil Survey for Okeechobee County. Elevations for the project are based on a site benchmark NGVD. The seasonal high water elevation for the project is set at 30.00' (NGVD 29) based on the SCS survey. The natural ground elevation in this area is between 31.5' to 32.0'. PROPOSED CONDITIONS The contiguously owned land area is approximately 0.65 acres. The project area is 0.65 acres and will include the site improvement development of the existing building and its proposed mixed use occupancy with its associated required parking, drainage and landscape improvements. Existing grass parking and driveways will be improved as required by the City of Okeechobee and FDOT. A driveway connection permit has been applied for thru FDOT. A revised parking layout and driveway is proposed to better serve and provide a safer access to the existing building. Off site improvements include the removal of one driveway and the paving of two existing driveways. Minor drainage improvements are required. Existing city water meter will provide the required potable water requirements. The existing sewer connection will remain as is. Proposed building remodel will project will be permitted and designed by others. Existing structure is of type V construction and will be protected and unsprinkled. The site improvements required by the building have been addressed on the site development plan. 08/15/2008 08:13 CSARIZE own GIVERNOR Dear Mr. Milk: RLFT/sdc Attacl mcnt 8634877181„ MILLS CONST CO LLC Florida 'da Department of Transportation STEPUANLE KOfl LOUSOS SECRETARY July 2, 2008 Harry Mills Mill Construction P.O.

General Description: Land Use Future Land Use Map Zoning Proposed Vehicle Sales Lot Single- family residence Commercial Commercial CHV, Heavy Commercial CHV, Heavy Commercial General Description: The subject property is a parcel of land encompassing approximately 0.65 acres located at 920 N.W. Park Street on which are located a legally nonconforming single family residence and two sheds. The owner proposes to convert the existing 1,245 square foot building, and surrounding covered concrete areas, to a 1,387 square foot mixed -use building housing a real estate office, used car sales office, storage areas and owner's residence. Grass parking is presently employed in front of the building and will be replaced by grass outdoor vehicle display area. The balance of the proposed improvements includes parking, vehicular access and circulation, and associated drainage facilities. Page -2 Staff Report Site Plan Review The subject site is designated commercial on the Future Land Use Map (FLUM) and zoned CHV. With the exception of the property to the north of the existing single family residence, which is zoned RMF and occupied by a single family dwelling, all imme- diately adjacent properties are zoned CHV and in commercial use. Following is the Staff analysis of the project's consistency with the various City require- ments and regulations. Instances where the Staff believes the submission to be defi- cient are highlighted.

Bridges Commercial and Single- Family to the N CHV RMF to the NW Vehicle Sales Repair and SF; Private school to the NW Commercial CHV Professional Offices Commercial CHV Service Station Commercial CHV Convenience Store Adequacy of Public Facilities: The property is presently provided water and sewer service by OUA and the additional commercial activity is not expected to present a significant increase in demand. Similarly, any increase in solid waste generation will be minimal and the County has recently confirmed a considerable level of excess capacity available to serve the solid waste disposal needs of other major developments in the City. It is reasonable that the volume of solid waste associated with a development of this size can also be accommodated within the capacity of the County's Solid Waste Facility. Drainage: The proposed development will be required to meet all standards required by the City of Okeechobee, the South Florida Water Management District and the Department of Environmental Protection's NPDES program. Staff Report Application No.: 09-007-TRC Site Plan Review Applicant's Name: Linda L. Bridges Traffic: Ingress and egress are presently afforded via a driveway on NW 10 Avenue and a driveway directly onto SR 70, although this latter driveway has been closed off with a chain, and, as we understand it, has occasionally been used for access by the owner. The current driveway on NW 10 Avenue will be moved northward to a point about 120 feet north of the intersection of NW 10 Avenue and SR 70. The Applicant has submitted, as part of the site plan package, a letter from FDOT outlining the conditions under which the FDOT will allow the existing driveway on SR 70 to remain. The Applicant submitted as part of its Special Exception Application an analysis of traffic generation associated with the mix of proposed uses. The estimate was that average weekday traffic could amount to 75 trips per day with the PM peak hour generation at only 5 trips. It was determined that the proposed use would not have significant impact on the existing roadway system and the Special Exception was approved on May 21, 2009 with no special conditions.

Plans show adequate number of trees. Plans show 16 trees and 39 shrubs. Plan shows 16 trees and 39 shrubs. One story Page -5 Staff Report Site Plan Review Sidewalks (Sec. 78 36): No sidewalk is shown along N.W. 10`" Avenue. Application No.: 09-007-TRC Applicant's Name: Linda L. Bridges Other Requirements and Considerations: Lighting Plan (Sec. 78 -71): The Applicant has not submitted a lighting plan for the parking area. However, with only six parking spaces the parking lot is of minimal size and a formal lighting plan may not be necessary, but the Applicant would still need to provide adequate lighting for the area. Dumpster Location: The proposed dumpster location is at the juncture of the property line and the one -way drive exiting onto NW 10 Avenue. It is unclear how the dumpster would be accessed by the collection vehicle unless the plan is for refuse to be in trash receptacles which are collected and emptied manually. Recommendations: Staff recommends approval of the site plan review provided the highlighted deficiencies are rectified or the TRC finds that: 1. The 10 -foot wide one -way driveway onto NW 10 Street is adequate; 2. No sidewalk is needed along NW 10 Avenue; 3. Adequate lighting of the vehicular use area is provided; and 4. The dumpster location is found to be safe and convenient for its intended purpose. Submitted by: James G.
