IV. NEW BUSINESS—Chairperson.
A. CRCO Properties, LLC. 13-002-TRC. Application was submitted by Steven Dobbs, P.E., on behalf of
the property owner, CRCO Properties, LLC, in regards to converting an existing 8,000 sq. ft. retail
furniture store to a 5,000 sq. ft. fitness center, a 1,500 sq. ft. retail nutrition store and a 1,500 sq. ft. of
warehouse space located at 704 North Parrott Avenue, Okeechobee, FL. and to include remote parking
lot—Senior Planner.
City Planning Consultant Brisson explained to the Board that the applicant is proposing to convert an
existing commercial building as stated above. The legal description is Lots 18 to 20 of Block 57, City of
Okeechobee. Plans were originally reviewed and found the project did not provide the adequate
required parking, and included parking along the right-of-way on Northeast 7th Street. The City's Land
Development Regulations do not allow private,off-street parking to be located in the public right-of-way.
TRC-May 16,2013-Page 2 of 3
IV. NEW BUSINESS CONTINUED.
A. CRCO Properties, LLC. 13-002-TRC continued.
In an effort to address the 10 additional parking spaces required, but cannot be constructed on the subject
property, the applicant is requesting to utilize a remote parking lot on additional property they own, located
one block south (behind Big Lake Eye Care). Discussion then turned to pedestrian safety, and concerns that
customers would park illegally along the right-of-way, regardless of the remote parking area. Then the fact
that customers would be crossing another owner's property, located at 610 North Parrott Avenue was a
concern. Should the remote parking be approved, Planner Brisson suggested"No Parking"signs be erected
along 7th Street and rigorously enforced and the two property owners enter into a written agreement, giving
consent for the customers to traverse across each other's property. The agreement would need to be
reviewed for legal sufficiency by Attorney Cook prior to execution. A proposed agreement was then
distributed, should it be deemed legally acceptable by Attorney Cook, this would adequately address the
safety concerns.
For the record, and to clarify, Administrator Whitehall, confirmed with the Board that parking on the right-of-
way was not up for discussion as this was not the prerogative of the TRC to propose to the City Council,
However, should the City Council decide to address it as a means to approve a parking reduction, they
could.All Board members were in agreement.
Engineer Steven Dobbs, addressed the Board by first stating that he did not have an updated site plan to
provide at this time, as he was trying to satisfy all the parking requirements before having the applicant
expend additional costs on the project, once approval is obtained for the remote parking, revised proposed
construction plans would be submitted.
Following a lengthy discussion, the consensus of the TRC was to recommend the applicant seek approval
from the City Council for the off-street parking arrangement (remote parking), then return for the Board to
address the construction conditions and details. A full site plan would be required showing 40 parking
spaces, based on the City Council's decision, as well as addressing a solid waste dumpster location and
loading zone on the subject property.
Comments from the Departments:
County Environmental Health Department: Mr. McCoy commented the current septic system was
constructed and designed for two bathrooms. Should the applicant propose installing showers or using a
Jacuzzi, the system would most likely need to be upgraded. The applicant responded he was proposing to
abandon the current septic system and install a lift station.
OUA: Mr. Hayford's comments reflected there is a fire hydrant on the site, and a force main is located one-
half a block to the south within the alleyway. He confirmed the property is utilizing septic, not sewer. Finally,
should the applicant propose each of the three types of businesses have individual addresses, the meter will
need to be changed to one for each business address.
Building Official: Mr. Newell's main concern was with a change of ownership and whether the remote
parking lot would be tied to the subject property, and how it could continue legally, should the applicant
decide to sell either property.
Public Works: Mr. Allen was concerned with parking as well and providing a safe route for pedestrians
crossing Northeast 7th Street.
Police Department: Chief Davis noted his concerns with potential illegal parking on the right-of-way and that
his department would be enforcing the no parking along 7th Street. He further gave an example of another
fitness center with a parking agreement and the patrons continue to park illegally on the right-of-way.

IV. NEW BUSINESS CONTINUED.
A. CRCO Properties, LLC. 13-002-TRC continued.
Fire Department: No issues were received.
Fire Chief Smith moved to recommend to the City Council to approve the concept of the remote
parking lot with the condition that the construction details and compliance issues be addressed by
the Technical Review Board regarding Application No. 13-002-TRC; seconded by Public Works
Director Allen.Motion carried unanimously.
V. ADJOURNMENT—Chairperson.
There being no further items on the agenda, Chairperson Whitehall adjourned the Technical Review Committee

General Description:
The Applicant is converting an existing 8,000 square foot retail furniture store to a 5,000
square foot fitness center, 1,500 square foot retail nutrition store and 1,500 square feet
of warehouse space. All functions will take place inside the building with 3 — 5
employees and the hours of operation will be from 6:00 AM until 8:00 PM.
The Applicant is proposing to provide parking at a remote lot behind the Big Lake Eye
Care building, as provided for under Sec. 90- 511(a)(2).
Following is the Staff analysis of the project's consistency with the various City
requirements and regulations. Instances where the Staff believes the submission to be

Adequacy of Public Facilities:
Potable Water and Sanitary Sewer: Since the demand for potable water and sewer
service associated with a 5,000 square foot fitness center and other uses proposed for
the existing building will significantly exceed that which would normally be associated
with a furniture store, the Applicant should obtain a letter from the Okeechobee Utility
Authority (OUA) stating that it has adequate capacity to serve the proposed use.
Solid Waste Disposal: On a number of occasions the County has confirmed a consi-
derable level of excess capacity available to serve the solid waste disposal needs of
other developments in the City. It appears 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.
Traffic: According to the 7th Edition, ITE Trip Generation Manual, the proposed mix of
uses is likely to generate about 28 vehicle trips during the weekday PM peak hour.
While this is considerably more than the most recent use as a furniture store (which only
generated slightly less than four trips), it is not significant with respect to the available
capacity of the adjacent roadways.

Petition No.: 13- 002 -TRC
DISCUSSION REGARDING USE OF REMOTE PARKING BEHIND BIG LAKE EYE CARE
The Applicant has suggested using the unimproved area behind Big Lake Eye Care, a property
also owned by the Applicant to augment the ten spaces presently located on the subject site.
Staff has visited the site and nearby properties and explored the viability of using this property
as a remote parking lot to serve the proposed use under the provisions of §90- 511(a)(2).
This visit indicated that the only likely pedestrian route to be utilized by patrons of the proposed
use(s) to go to and from the proposed off -site parking area would be crossing NE 7th Street into
and through the parking lot behind the property located at 610 N. Parrott Avenue.
The Applicant has submitted a preliminary drawing of the proposed remote parking lot. This
drawing indicates to us that the walking distance between the front door of the subject property
and the nearest parking space in the remote lot will be about 370 feet. At a common pace of 3
to 3.5 mph, it would take one about somewhat under 1 1/2 minutes to go from the closest parking
space to the door of the fitness center. If one is at the most remote parking space, the walking
distance would be about 600 feet and would take between 2 and 2.3 minutes. Having traversed
this route a couple of times during my site visit, I did not find it inconvenient. I did not walk the
longer route to the most remote space at that time.
Even though the distance between the remote parking lot and the fitness center may be
acceptable, parking will most likely occur along the right -of -way on the south side of NE 7th
Street before patrons will use the remote lot, unless no parking signs are erected and rigorously
enforced.
Since the property between the remote parking lot and NE 7th Street is not owned by the
Applicant, it would be necessary to obtain a written agreement with the owner of 610 N. Parrott
Avenue to allow pedestrian access across this private property to access the remote parking
area behind Big Lake Eye Care. Without such an agreement, safe and convenient access to
the remote lot could not be guaranteed and therefore the remote lot could not be considered to
adequately serve the proposed use, as required under §90- 511(a)(2).
The Applicant has submitted an agreement with Ms. Anita Nunez, owner of the property at 610
North Parrot Avenue. If the agreement is deemed by the City Attorney to be legally acceptable,
this would satisfy this concern.
Off - street Loading
One required for 5,000 to
25,000 square feet of
commercial floor space.
None provided. If the remote parking lot is
approved, we would recommend that the
required loading zone be located in the on-
site parking lot.
Parking Space
Dimensions and
Locations
If the remote lot is approved, all location and
dimensional requirements will need to be
met. For example, to avoid conflicts the first
parking space should be located 20 feet
from the east property line.
Minimum Driveway
Width
24 -feet for 90 degree
parking
This will have to be addressed when the site
plan for the remote lot is reviewed.

Applicant: CRCO Properties, LLC
Petition No.: 13- 002 -TRC
Recommendation:
Based on the foregoing information and analysis, we believe that a remote parking lot in the
location proposed by the Applicant could be considered to adequately serve the proposed
uses provided the following conditions are met:
1. The City Commission approves the Applicant's request for the use of off -site parking
facilities.
2. A legally acceptable agreement, which provides for access through the property at 610
North Parrott Avenue and /or along the public alleyway between NE 7th Street and the
proposed remote parking lot, is executed between or among the appropriate parties.
3. The Applicant submits to the City a written agreement ensuring the continued availability
of the off -site parking facility for parking use as required under Sec. 90- 511(a)(2).
4. The applicant submits a site plan for the remote parking lot which, together with the on-
site parking spaces, provides for at least 40 off - street parking spaces as required by the
LDC. The site plan must also meet all other applicable requirements of the LDC as relates
to access, size and location of parking spaces, buffering, landscaping and lighting,
including the submission of the required landscape and photometric lighting plans.

Environmental Resource Permit Application No. 130110 -2
Okeechobee County
Dear Mr. Dobbs:
District staff has reviewed the above - referenced application and has determined that
additional information will be required to complete the application. In accordance with Rule
40E- 1.603, Florida Administrative Code (FAC), the District is requesting the following
information to complete the application and provide reasonable assurances for permit
issuance:
1. The proposed construction of the parking lot, driveway and associated surface water
management facilities do not qualify for a No Notice or Noticed General Environmental
Resource Permit (Rule 40E- 400.315(e) and 40E- 400.439(f) FAC). Please be advised that
the required permit processing fee for a (non - agricultural) standard general permit is
$3,500.00. Please submit a check for the outstanding fee. Further, in order for staff to
complete their review of the project, please submit the items listed in Sections C and E of
the permit application form. Additional comments may be issued once staff has had an
opportunity to review the requested information.
2. Section 5.2.1 of the District's Basis of Review (BOR) requires that projects provide water
quality treatment for the greater of the first inch of runoff, or 2.5" times the percentage of
impervious. Please provide calculations which demonstrate the foregoing. What are the
provided water quality treatment volume and overflow elevation, and the mechanism for
providing this volume, as indicated on the drainage plans? If the water quality treatment
provided is less than required an explanation must be submitted for staff review that
explains why additional water quality treatment cannot be provided.
3. With regard to exfiltration trench calculations, the depth to the water table (H2) should be
the lesser of the distance between the control elevation (el. 25.35' NGVD) and the lowest
grate elevation, or the lowest overflow elevation. Similarly, the unsaturated trench depth

grate elevation, or the lowest overflow elevation. Similarly, the unsaturated trench depth
(Du) should also be calculated based upon the minimum of the overflow elevation or the
minimum grate elevation (Section 5.4 BOR).
4. Please provide documentation from the City of Okeechobee which demonstrates that the
applicant has authorization for paving and drainage improvements within the 7th Street
right -of -way. This documentation shall also address who will be responsible for operation
and maintenance of the piping network/SWM system for State Route 441 and the city
street (Rule 40E- 4.381(i), (k) FAC.
5. Will temporary dewatering be required as part of the construction activities? Please contact
Eve Raymond, or Matt Stahley, Scientist 2- Hydrogeology at 863 -462 -5260 ext. 3032, to
determine if a Water Use Permit(s) will be required for dewatering. Because of the
inseparable nature of water use and surface water management, and in accordance with
Rule 3.2(b), Basis of Review for Environmental Resource Permit Applications, District staff
will review these applications concurrently and final agency action will be taken only when
both applications have been deemed complete.
Advisory Comment: The following comment is advisory in nature and does not require a
response to the District.
A1. Included with this letter /permit is a brochure from the Florida Department of
Environmental Protection (FDEP) on Florida's National Pollutant Discharge Elimination
System (NPDES) program for construction activities.
As the brochure indicates, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency authorized the FDEP
in October 2000 to implement the NPDES stormwater permitting program in Florida. The
District is assisting FDEP by distributing this information to entities which may be subject to
regulation under the NPDES program. No response to the District is required.
A "Generic Permit for Stormwater Discharge from Large and Small Construction Activities"
(CGP) is required for a construction activity which ultimately disturbs an acre or more and
contributes stormwater discharges to surface waters of the State or into a municipal
separate storm sewer system.
The permit required under FDEP's NPDES stormwater permitting program is separate
from the Environmental Resource Permit required by the District. Receiving a permit from
the District does not exempt you from meeting the NPDES program requirements.
If you have any questions on the NPDES Stormwater program, call 866 - 336 -6312 or email
FDEP at NPDES- stormwater(cr?.dep.state.fl.us. For additional information on the NPDES
Stormwater Program including all regulations and forms cited in the brochure visit:
www.dep.state.fl.us /water /stormwater /npdes/ .

Purpose: The purpose of this report is to provide the South Florida Water Management District
(SFWMD), the City of Okeechobee and the Florida Department of Transportation with the calculations and
documentation necessary to demonstrate the proposed surface water management system complies with
state and local criteria.
Existing Conditions: The site is approximately 0.48 acres in size with a parcel number of 3- 15- 37 -35-
0010 -00570 -0180 and is located in Section 15, Township 37 South, Range 35 East. This project is located
approximately 1 block south of the CSX railroad crossing on Highway 441N, the City of Okeechobee, FL.
The site currently discharges through the 7th Street Ditch on the south side of the property and the ditch
discharges to Taylor Creek to the east and Taylor Creek Discharges into Lake Okeechobee..
Proposed Use: The owner proposes modify the existing site plan to include additional parking and change
the use of the building from retail furniture sales to a fitness center. The plan will also cover 7th Street
Ditch south of the property and permitting is in process with the Florida Department of Transportation to
receive their approval. The water quality requirements of the additional parking will be met by installing
72 If of exfiltration trench prior to the runoff discharging into the 7th Street Ditch. This exfiltration will
provide the required 0.05 ac -ft of water quality treatment.
Parkin Considerations: Parking for the 8,000 sf building is provided based on a 5,000 sf fitness center,
1,500 sf of warehouse, and 1,500 sf of a nutrition store. The fitness center requires 1 parking space for
every 150 sf or 33.3 spaces, the warehouse will require 1 space for every 1,000 sf or 1.5 spaces, and the
nutrition store requires 1 space for every 250 sf or 6 spaces for a total of 41 required spaces. According to
2000 International Building Code, for 25 to 49 parking spaces there are 2 handicapped parking spaces
required and 2 are provided. While there are a total of,3.7 spaces provided, we are requesting the TRC to
recommend to the City Council for a parking reduction.AThe typical parking reduction is 20 %, while our
request is for only 10 %. 34)
Drainage Considerations: To provide the water quality treatment requirements of the additional parking
area, all drainage will pass through the proposed 72 If of exfiltration trench. The exfiltration trench will be
controlled at 27.35 or the top of the exfiltration trench as required by South Florida Water Management
District Criteria. The bottom of the exfiltration trench pipe will be located at elevation 25.35 or the wet
season water table as established by AM Engineering in the attached report.
The Soils Map for Okeechobee County indicates that this parcel's soils are made up of 100.0 % Immokalee
Fine Sand. This soil type is are very poorly drained "D soil" in the natural state and better drained "B soil"
in the developed state.
The site is currently developed and is located in the S -133 Basin with an allowable discharge of 15.6 CSM
for a 25 year — 3 day event. The project will drain through the onsite exfiltration trench and into the
adjacent 7th Street Ditch to the east which proceeds south into Taylor Creek.
Allowable discharge for the project based on Pre vs Post calculations is 15.6 csm:
Q = 15.6 csm / 640 acres * A
Q= 15.6 csm /640 acres * 0.48 Acres =0.12 cfs

A. Water Quality
Water quality treatment is provided in the form of dry retention with an under drain for the project drainage
area. Water quality calculations are provided on the attached spreadsheet.
For Drainage Area:
See attached spreadsheet for water quality calculations
Based on the attached stage storage spreadsheet, the water quality volume is exceeded at elevation 29.7.
B. Water Quantity
This project is located in the S -133 Basin which discharges to the south into Lake Okeechobee. The
allowable discharge in this project is 15.6 csm, therefore the allowable discharge for the 25 -year, 72 -hour
storm event for this project was calculated to be 0.12 cfs. There are no anticipated tailwater issues since the
project will discharge into an open adjacent ditch. The actual maximum discharge for the 25 -year 72 -hour
storm event is 2.214 cfs, which exceeds allowable discharge, however, this is an existing site and water
quality is only being provided for the additional parking area and no water attenuation is proposed. To
demonstrate conformance to this criteria, the proposed project was flood routed using AdICPR.
The 10 year, 24 hour storm (5.0 ") w /discharge, the 25 year, 72 hour storm (9.0 ") w /discharge, and the 100
year, 72 hour storm (10.0 ") w/o discharge has been evaluated based on the proposed plan. Please refer to
the attached AdICPR flood routing input/output parameters.

Since the owner is proposing to fill the ditch and replace the existing 42" culvert under the drive and install
a 48" culvert, FDOT requested this ditch be modeled, which was done and completed successfully. The
modeling show no adverse water levels and actually reduced water levels within the ditch in the post
condition. Please see attached analysis.
Off -site Drainage: There is no off -site drainage included in the property.
Environmental: There are no jurisdictional wetlands onsite.

Construction Recommendations: Run -off and any water generated by short-term dewatering generated
during construction shall be contained on -site. However, there is some potential for transport of sediment to
off -site areas should heavy rainfall occur. We therefore recommend installation of temporary silt fence
around the entire construction area during site work to reduce the potential of any off -site transport of
sediment or turbidity.
Conclusions: In my professional opinion, the proposed construction should have no impact to existing
drainage patterns off -site and should have no impact on off -site areas. The recommendations above should
be followed during and after the site work until such time as the ground surface has been adequately
stabilized to prevent the off -site transport of any soil or suspended solids. The proposed design and
construction will meet all local, state and federal requirements.

Ladies and Gentlemen:
We are pleased to submit this geotechnical report for the referenced project. This letter
describes the project, field explorations, results of testing, findings, and information from
outside references.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Based on a site plan (reproduced as the Boring Location Plan attached to this report) and
conversations with the client, the project consists of constructing new pavement and parking
areas with an exfiltration system.
FIELD EXPLORATIONS
The subsurface conditions at the project site were explored on December 3, 2012, with three
Auger borings. Subsequently an Exfiltration (EX) test was conducted in one borehole (AB -1).
The auger borings were performed in general accordance with ASTM D 1452, "Practice for
Soil Investigation and Sampling by Auger Borings ", and the exfiltration test with the SFWMD
Usual Open Hole Test procedure. Hand Cone Penetrometer (HCP) readings were taken at
one -foot intervals in the auger borings. The HCP test, in conjunction with information about
the soil type, is empirically correlated to the relative density of subsurface soils.
The borings and exfiltration test were completed at the approximate locations noted on the
Boring Location Plan. The Exfiltration Test Report with the logs from the auger borings are
attached. GPS coordinates obtained at boring locations are noted on logs. The depths on the
boring logs are below the existing ground surface at the time the borings were performed.
FINDINGS
The project site was generally flat and grassy with oak and palm trees. The grade at the site
was estimated to be 1/2 feet above the adjacent road at the time of the explorations. One -story

structures were located adjacent to the property. A one -story metal building and asphalt
parking lot occupied the site.
The subsurface soils encountered in the borings generally consisted of fine sand to a depth
of 31/2 feet, very dark brown organically stained sand with little silt that was non - cemented to
weakly cemented (hardpan) from 31/2 to 41/2 feet, and then sand to the boring termination
depths of 6 feet. The HCP values generally indicated that the soils were medium dense from
the ground surface to the bottom of the borings at depths of 6 feet.
Ground water was encountered 5 to 6 feet below existing grade at the boring locations.
USGS TOPOGRAPHICAL AND USDA SOIL SURVEY INFORMATION
We reviewed the USGS 7.5- minute series quadrangle topographic map of the area, entitled
Taylor Creek SE. Revisions to this map were based on aerial photographs taken in 1972. The
USGS map showed the project site is located on a broad area with an elevation about 30 feet
NGVD. The site is within a residential and commercially developed area. The Taylor Creek is
about 2100 feet east of the site.
The site is shown on sheet numbers 43 and 46 of the Soil Survey of the Okeechobee County
Area, Florida, issued by the U.S. Dept. of Agriculture in March 1980. According to the Soil
Survey, Immokalee fine sand (11) occur at the site.
The Soil Survey describes Immokalee fine sand (11) as poorly drained soil in broad areas of
flatwoods. The soil profile consists of fine sand to fine sand with little silt from the ground
surface to a depth of 3 feet, underlain by fine sand with little to some silt to a depth of 6%
feet. With unimproved drainage, the seasonal high water table is apparent and at a depth of 6
to 18 inches below the ground surface from June through September. During the remainder
of the year, it is typically at a depth of 18 to 40 inches. Permeability is rapid in the surface and
subsurface layers and moderate to moderately rapid in the subsoil. The subsurface layer
extends to a depth of 3 feet and the subsoil to a depth of 41/2 feet.
It should be noted that the Soil Survey generally extends to a maximum depth of 80 inches
(approximately 6% feet) below ground surface and is not indicative of deeper soil conditions.
SOUTH FLORIDA WATER MANAGEMENT DISTRICT RAINFALL INFORMATION
According to the SFWMD web site the rainfall in the Lake Okeechobee area from December
1 to 3, 2012 was 0.03 inches (29% of normal for that time of month, normal monthly total for
all of December is 0.62 inches), for the month of November 2012 was 0.16 inches (8% of
monthly normal), for the month of October 2012 was 3.86 inches (130% of monthly normal),
and for the month of September 2012 was 6.05 inches (108% of monthly normal). The year
to date to the end of November 2012 was 43.52 inches (102% of monthly normal). The 2011
total rainfall was 38.73 inches (88 percent of normal).

DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS
The subsurface soils encountered in the auger boring corresponded well with the information
presented in the Soil Survey. The recent rainfall history indicates that the observed water
table level should be about normal for this time of year. Drainage improvements in the vicinity
indicate the average wet season high water table should be below that stated in the Soil
Survey.
Based on the above data and the results of our field exploration, we estimate that the
average wet season high water table level is 33/ feet below the ground surface at the boring
locations. However, should rainfall intensity and duration or total rainfall quantities exceed the
normally anticipated rainfall quantities, the groundwater level may exceed our estimate of the
average wet season high groundwater level.
The top of a very dark brown organically stained sand with little silt that was generally non -
cemented to weakly cemented (hardpan) layer was encountered at depths of 31/2 feet, and
had layers about 1/2 to 1 foot thick in the borings. This soil has a low permeability. Also, it
should be noted for drainage system design that the soil layer described by the soil survey as
sand with little /some silt has a low permeability. The Soil Survey generally gives the
coefficient of permeability for this material as less than 0.4 feet per day (1.4 x 10 cm /sec).
Based on our experience the coefficient of permeability ranges from 0.01 to 0.1 feet per day
(104 to 10 -5 cm /sec) for these low permeability soils. "Perching" of the ground water on top of
these layers after rainfall should be expected.
PAVEMENT RECOMMENDATIONS
General
Based on the borings, the soils are suitable for support of access drives and parking areas
using typical pavement profiles. Construction of the roads should conform to the latest FDOT
specifications.
Generally a flexible asphaltic concrete pavement will require a higher quality deeper
subgrade than a rigid concrete pavement. Either rigid or flexible pavement sections can be
used in areas traveled by light autos, pickup trucks and smaller delivery vehicles. We
recommend rigid pavements for zones traversed by heavy trucks as well as dumpster pads.
The pavement section should be designed for the anticipated vehicle loads and frequencies.
We recommend that the proposed pavement grades provide at least 18 inches of separation
between the bottom of the base course or the concrete slab and the average wet season high
water table. Good drainage is essential for longevity of pavements. Care should be taken to
prevent access of irrigation water from landscaped areas to the base and subgrade courses
beneath both rigid and flexible pavements. The resultant saturation will result in
subgrade /base failure and the rapid deterioration of the pavement surface.

The pavement area should be prepared in accordance with the "Site Preparation
Recommendations - Pavement" section of this report.
Rigid Pavements
Rigid (concrete) pavements generally provide durability, strength and longer life. Our rigid
pavement design is based on ACI Standard 330R -01, "Guide for Design and Construction of
Concrete Parking Lots ". The recommended pavement thicknesses presented in the following
table are predicated on preparation and compaction of the subgrade as recommended in this
report, a modulus of subgrade reaction (k) of 150 pci, a 20 -year design life, and the specified
average daily truck traffic (ADTT).

Uniformity of subgrade support, rather than high subgrade strength, is a key factor in
concrete pavement performance. The upper 2 feet of the subgrade should be compacted to a
minimum of 98% of the modified Proctor maximum dry density (AASHTO T180), and a
stable, unyielding surface must be achieved at the subgrade level.
The concrete should have a minimum 28 -day flexural strength (modulus of rupture) of 600 psi
based on the third point loading of concrete beam test samples. Because beam tests are not
typically performed for this size project, we recommend that the concrete have a minimum
28 -day compressive strength of 4,500 psi (based on published correlations between
compressive strength and flexural strength, Figure 2.1 of ACI 330R -01).
The joints should be sawed as soon as the pavement can withstand traffic, but not so soon
as to cause raveling of the concrete surface and aggregate during sawing.

Flexible Pavements
For construction of typical flexible pavement sections, we recommend that the upper 2 feet of
soil immediately below the stabilized subgrade (or base course if stabilized subgrade is not
used) be compacted to a minimum of 98% of the modified Proctor maximum dry density
(AASHTO T -180), and a stable, unyielding surface must be achieved at the subgrade level.
While a three -layer pavement section consisting of stabilized subgrade, base course and
surface course can be used, a two -layer pavement section that has a thicker base course
(equivalent when substituted for the stabilized subgrade) with a surface course can be used.
We have included the typical designs for alternate traffic volumes and types. The designs are
based on structural number analyses with the stated estimated daily traffic volumes for a 20-
year pavement design life and terminal serviceability value, Pt, of 2.5. For loading conditions
greater than those presented in the following table, a pavement design should be made for
the projected traffic data.
The stabilized subgrade should have a minimum LBR value of 40, and should be compacted
to at least 98% of the modified Proctor maximum dry density (AASHTO T -180). The base
course should be free draining FDOT approved limerock or coquina (or equivalent) with a
minimum LBR value of 100. The base course should be placed in lifts not to exceed 6 inches,
and compacted to at least 98% of the modified Proctor maximum dry density (AASHTO T-
180). The surface course should be designed and tested in accordance with the current
FDOT specifications.
Utility Installation
Dewatering will be required for the installation of some of the underground utilities. In the
locations that were explored, the excavated soils from the utility installations are technically
suitable for use as backfill in the utility trenches provided their moisture contents allow
adequate compaction, especially the sand with little /some silt and clay. If the work is
performed during the wet season, the soils containing silt and clay will be difficult to compact
due to their high moisture content, and construction delays may result from their use.
Consideration should be given to using select clean backfiil in the utility trenches if the soils
have high fines contents (silt and clay) and are saturated.

The stabilized subgrade should have a minimum LBR value of 40, and should be compacted
to at least 98% of the modified Proctor maximum dry density (AASHTO T -180). The base
course should be free draining FDOT approved limerock or coquina (or equivalent) with a
minimum LBR value of 100. The base course should be placed in lifts not to exceed 6 inches,
and compacted to at least 98% of the modified Proctor maximum dry density (AASHTO T-
180). The surface course should be designed and tested in accordance with the current
FDOT specifications.
Utility Installation
Dewatering will be required for the installation of some of the underground utilities. In the
locations that were explored, the excavated soils from the utility installations are technically
suitable for use as backfill in the utility trenches provided their moisture contents allow
adequate compaction, especially the sand with little /some silt and clay. If the work is
performed during the wet season, the soils containing silt and clay will be difficult to compact
due to their high moisture content, and construction delays may result from their use.
Consideration should be given to using select clean backfiil in the utility trenches if the soils
have high fines contents (silt and clay) and are saturated.

Curbing
Curbing used around the landscaped sections adjacent to the parking Tots and access drives
should be constructed with full -depth curb sections. Using extruded curb sections which lie
directly on top of the final asphalt level, or eliminating the curbing entirely, can allow runoff
and irrigation water (from the landscape areas) to seep between the asphalt and the base
causing a separation of the wearing surface, subsequent rippling and early pavement
deterioration.
SITE PREPARATION RECOMMENDATIONS - PAVEMENT
Stripping, Proofrolling and Proofcompaction
The proposed pavement areas should be stripped of all surface vegetation, trees, roots,
debris and other deleterious matter within and at least 5 feet beyond the perimeter of the
proposed pavement areas. Any areas to receive fill should be likewise stripped.
Foundations and any below grade remains of any structures that were previously within the
footprint of the proposed construction should be removed. Existing utilities should be located,
properly capped at the property line and removed or rerouted around the footprint of the
proposed construction. Septic tank remains and septic fields within the footprint of the
proposed construction should be removed and the excavation backfilled with compacted lifts
of suitable soil. Trees within the footprint of the proposed construction will have to be
removed and the tree holes should be backfilled with compacted soil.
The areas should be proofrolled and compacted with a 5 to 10 -ton vibratory (or static if
vibration is of concern) roller operating at a "slow walk" speed. The roller should make at
least 6 overlapping passes over the entire cleared area, 3 passes in one direction and 3 more
at a right angle to the first 3 passes. Proofrolling helps to detect any soft or loose zones and
buried debris. If unstable areas are encountered, the project engineer or the geotechnical
consultant should be advised, the matter investigated and the problem resolved. Because the
initial proofrolling is very critical, we recommend that a representative of GFA monitor the
operation.
After proofrolling, the cleared areas should be compacted until the upper 2 feet of soil
achieve a density of at least 98% of the modified Proctor maximum dry density (AASHTO T-
180). A representative of GFA should check the compaction with field density tests prior to
placing any fill.
A vibratory roller may be used for proofrolling, stripped surface and fill compaction if existing
structure(s) are of sufficient distance (generally 40 feet) away from the vibratory roller so that
the structure(s) are not damaged by vibrations. If not, the proofrolling and compaction should
be performed with static rolling (vibratory mode 'off). Prior to beginning compaction
operations, photographs of nearby structures can be taken to document the condition and
visible cracking for claim purposes. Alternative equipment, such as front -end loaders with

buckets filled with soil, has been used successfully to attain the required compaction without
the problem of vibration.
Earthwork Recommendations
Fill should be "clean" sand with less than 5% fines (percent of dry weight passing a U.S. No.
200 sieve). Higher fine contents can be used but more construction control is necessary.
Hand operated equipment should be used when in close proximity to walls or other structures
that could be adversely affected by vibrations or heavy equipment.
The fill should be placed in 12 -inch thick compacted lifts with each lift compacted to at least
98% of the modified Proctor maximum dry density (AASHTO T -180). The compaction should
be checked with field density tests.
Vibration Monitoring
Using vibratory compaction equipment at this site may disturb adjacent structures (generally
structures within 40 feet of roller could be affected). Nearby structures should be monitored
before and during proof - compaction. If disturbances are noted, the vibratory compaction
should be halted immediately, and GFA should be advised. We will review the construction
progress, and evaluate if the subgrade has attained satisfactory compaction in compliance
with our design assumptions. Altemative equipment, such as front -end loaders with buckets
filled with soil, has been used successfully to attain the required compaction. Prior to
beginning compaction operations, photographs of nearby structures can be taken to
document the condition and visible cracking for claim purposes.
CLOSURE
This consulting report has been prepared for the exclusive use of the current project owners
and other members of the design team for the project. This report has been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted local geotechnical engineering practices; no other
warranty is expressed or implied. The evaluation submitted in this report, is based in part
upon the data collected during a field exploration, however, the nature and extent of
variations throughout the subsurface profile may not become evident until the time of
construction. If variations then appear evident, it may be necessary to reevaluate information
and professional opinions as provided in this report. In the event changes are made in the
nature, design, or locations of the proposed structure, the evaluation and opinions contained
in this report shall not be considered valid, unless the changes are reviewed and conclusions
modified or verified in writing by GFA International.
The analysis and recommendations submitted in this report are based on the data obtained
from the tests performed. This report does not reflect any variations, which may occur
between borings. While the borings are representative of the subsurface conditions at their
respective locations and for their vertical reaches, local variations characteristic of the
subsurface soils of the region are anticipated and may be encountered. The delineation

a Florida Municipal corporation (hereinafter "CITY "), D & A SOD LANDSCAPING INC.
(hereinafter "OWNER(S) "), dated this 21' day of April , 2004.
WHEREAS, OWNER (S) hold fee simple title to the following described real property
in Okeechobee County, Florida, to wit:
Lots 3, 4, and 5 Block 77, CITY OF OKEECHOBEE, Public Records of
Okeechobee County, Florida; and
WHEREAS, the OWNER(S) desire to make certain improvements in the form of paving
or concreting and maintaining only the Northern fifteen by one hundred forty feet (15'x140') of
the alleyway located between the Lots 4 and 5, and Lot 3 of said Block 77, and installation of
parking lot striping, located, within the right -of -way and alley as described which is an open,
unimproved right -of -way. Which right -of -way is own

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and covenants set forth
herein, the parties agree as follows:
1. The CITY hereby grants this revocable license for use of the right -of -way with
the understanding the OWNER(S) will maintain the right -of -way and should it
ever become necessary to remove a fence, paving, concrete, structure or any
improvement thereon, in order to allow either the installation, or maintenance of
water, sewer, or other utility lines or any other type of installation or construction,
or for any other reason chosen by the CITY, the fence, or any improvement
thereon, will be removed by the OWNER(S) or their agents and /or assigns at the
OWNER(S) expense within seven days of receipt of written request by the CITY
for such removal. Should the CITY, for valid reasons, require the removal of the
fence, or any improvements thereon less than seven days notice, the OWNER
agrees to exercise reasonable efforts to comply with such requests.
2. OWNER(S) agree to contact their insurance company and require a rider be
added to their insurance policy with a certificate furnished to the CITY showing
the portion of the alleyway as herein described, to be used by them, insures the
CITY against any liability arising out of alleged injuries or other activities which
may occur within the right -of -way. In any event, OWNER(S) agree and shall
hold the CITY harmless for any and all action, suit, claim, injury or cause of
action of any nature arising out of owner's permissive use, and indemnify CITY
for such, including costs and attorney fees.
3. That OWNER(S) shall not, by such improvements made to that described alley,
obstruct, close or otherwise restrict access to the alley for travel thereon by the
CITY or the general public.
4. That the OWNER(S) agree that this license is non - assignable without the
express written consent of the CITY; and if transferred, the covenants herein
shall bind themselves, their heirs and assigns, and said covenants shall run with
the land.
5. The City Clerk shall cause this agreement to be recorded in the public records

public right -of -way.
Further, the 10 spaces

alley to gain access and
require backing out onto the
alley to exit the site. Even if
the alley were an
acceptable access way the
area of the parking spaces

Adequacy of Public Facilities:
Potable Water and Sanitary Sewer: Since the demand for potable water and sewer
service associated with a 5,000 square foot fitness center and other uses proposed for
the existing building will significantly exceed that which would normally be associated
with a furniture store, the Applicant should obtain a letter from the Okeechobee Utility
Authority (OUA) stating that it has adequate capacity to serve the proposed use.
Solid Waste Disposal: On a number of occasions the County has confirmed a consi-
derable level of excess capacity available to serve the solid waste disposal needs of
other developments in the City. It appears 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.
Traffic: According to the 7th Edition, ITE Trip Generation Manual, the proposed mix of
uses is likely to generate about 28 vehicle trips during the weekday PM peak hour.
While this is considerably more than the most recent use as a furniture store (slightly
less than four trips), it is not significant with respect to the available capacity of the
adjacent roadways.

Site Plan Review
Applicant: CRCO Properties, LLC
Petition No.: 13- 002 -TRC
DISCUSSION REGARDING USE OF REMOTE PARKING BEHIND BIG LAKE EYECARE
The Applicant has suggested using the unimproved area behind Big Lake Eye Care, a property
also owned by the Applicant to augment the nine spaces presently located on the subject site.
Staff has visited the site and nearby properties and explored the viability of using this property
as a remote parking lot to serve the proposed use under the provisions of §90- 511(a)(2).
This visit indicated that the only convenient and likely pedestrian route to be utilized by patrons
of the proposed use(s) to go to and from the proposed off -site parking area would be crossing
NW 7th Street into and through the parking lot behind the property located at 610 N. Parrott
Avenue. Since this property is not owned by the Applicant, we believe it would be necessary to
obtain a written agreement with the owner of 610 N. Parrott Avenue to allow pedestrian and /or
vehicular access across this private property to access the remote parking area behind Big
Lake Eye Care. Without such an agreement, safe and convenient access to the remote lot
could not be guaranteed and therefore the remote lot could not be considered to adequately
serve the proposed use, as required under §90- 511(a)(2).
Should the Applicant obtain the needed permission to allow wither pedestrian or vehicular
access through the 610 N. Parrott property, the Applicant will need to construct a new paved
parking area that meets City standards and provides the complement of parking spaces that,
together with those spaces on the subject property will meet the minimum number of off - street
parking spaces required of the uses by the LDC.

been made by the Applicant to ensure a safe and convenient pedestrian route from a remote
location to the proposed use(s) that does not require the unauthorized use of other private
property, the TRC meeting be continued until such time as the Applicant provides documen-
tation of such an arrangement, and a revised site plan is submitted addressing all of the
deficiencies identified in this Staff Report and any other stipulations required by the TRC.
