Council Member Markham moved to adopt proposed Ordinance No. 813; seconded by Council Member Watford b) Public Comments. This Ordinance pertains to Future Land Use Map Amendment Application No. 03-001-SSA submitted by Okeechobee County Board of County Commissioners. The request is to amend the land use designation from Multi -Family, and Commercial, to Public Facilities. The property is located at Lots 1-6, 10-12, of Block 125, Okeechobee Subdivision. Planning Staff Report reflects that the applicant' s request is consistent with the requested Land Use Categories, and the expansion of the courthouse use should be an asset to the area, but the closure of Northwest 3dStreet will eliminate through traffic and create additional turning movements and traffic conflicts. Little off-street parking is also proposed, creating additional traffic conflicts that can result from increased street parking. The County proposes only thirt-three off-street parking spaces and three hundred forty-one on -street spaces. The County has not adequately addressed these potential problems here, but will have to do so prior to any development taking place. Objective 8 and Policy 8.1 of the City's Comprehensive Plan require that the City". . . coordinate development with the provision of adequate motorized and non -motorized transportation facilities" and that the City should monitor development". . . to ensure that needed transportation facilities are provided by developers or appropriate government agencies prior to or concurrent with development." Therefore, City Staff will require that these impacts be addressed prior to Final Site Plan Approval.

Mayor Kirk asked whether there were any comments or questions from the public. There were none.

All issues relating to the relocation of utilities within the above referenced street and alley have been resolved. All utility relocations within these areas will be accomplished through existing right of ways. Okeechobee County is coordinating with each utility provider when their service is relocated in order not to conflict with the construction ofthe Judicial Center or create unnecessary utility outages for their customers. I trust that this letter provides the City of Okeechobee enough assurance that no utility services will be adversely impacted by granting our request for closing a portion of N. W. 3 rd Street and the alley in block 125. Again, thank you for your assistance in this matter and should you have any questions, please contact me.

Okeechobee County intends to construct new court facilities to augment the existing, historically significant building. The existing courthouse will be renovated and likely will continue to provide some court functions and perhaps will house other county government offices. The property on which the new court facilities are proposed to be located (Block 125) currently is designated with Public Facilities, Multi -Family and Commercial future land use classifications. The block to the south, on which the existing courthouse is located, is designated Public Facilities with the Public Facilities designation. Okeechobee County is requesting that the future land use classification for all of Block 125, the site of the new court facilities, be changed to the Public Facilities classification. IPAGE I 0 0 Staff Report: Small Scale Comprehensive Plan Amendment Applicant: Okeechobee County BCC Petition No. 03-001-SSA transportation facilities are provided by developers or appropriate government agencies prior to or concurrent with development." Therefore, City Staff will require that these impacts be addressed prior to Final Site Plan Approval. B. Concurrency of Adequate Public Facilities The applicant fails to show that all impacts to levels of service are addressed adequately. Although it appears that impacts may be moderate, the County should provide additional impact analyses that address the impacts that may result from closure of NW 3 d St., the lack of off-street parking, and the resulting impedance of through traffic that may arise from these changes. C. Compatibility with Adjacent and Nearby Land Uses The proposed use is deemed compatible with adjacent and nearby land uses due to the nature and characteristics of the intended use. D. Compliance with Specific Standards of the Plan. While the proposed use is deemed compatible with adjacent and nearby land uses, the request fails to show that all impacts have been addressed, more specifically, traffic and parking. Parking requirements are being considered for amendment at this time, which may help to address some of staff s concerns, but because of the lack of impact analyses, these issues should be addressed sufficiently by the time the applicant submits for Final Site Plan Approval. The proposed land use is compatible with existing and future land use, but the applicant has failed to address all traffic and parking impacts. Staff still has concerns regarding the closure of NW 3 d Street and the lack of providing additional off-street parking. This is problematic, but because these issues are more site specific they can be addressed during site plan review. Therefore, Planning Staff has no objection to the proposed use, but will require the County to submit impact analyses addressing all impacts prior to approval of the Final Site Plan. Approval of this petition should not be construed as an approval of the applicant's development plans. Based on Staff s analyses as addressed in this report, Staff finds this petition to be consistent with the City Comprehensive Plan and recommends approval. Submitted by: James G.

The existing historical courthouse will be renovated to continue providing some government uses, and the proposed courthouse will be built on Block 125, just to the north of the existing courthouse. This will expand the courthouse campus to include two full city blocks and will require the closure of NW 3rd Street between NW 4th Avenue and NW 3rd Avenue. Note: This petition is a companion to Petition 03 -001 -R, a request to rezone this subject parcel from CPO (Commercial Professional Office) to PUB (Public Use). Comprehensive Plan Analysis I A. Consistency with the Land Use Categories and Plan Policies. The applicant's request is consistent with the requested Land Use Categories., and the expansion of the courthouse use should be an asset to the area, but the closure of NW 3 rd Street will eliminate through traffic and create additional turning movements and traffic conflicts. Little off-street parking is also proposed, creating additional traffic conflicts that can result from increased street parking. The County proposes only 33 off-street parking spaces and 341 on -street spaces. The County has not adequately addressed these potential problems here, but will have to do so prior to any development taking place. Objective 8 and Policy 8.1 of the City's Comprehensive Plan require that the City "...coordinate development with the provision of adequate motorized and non -motorized transportation facilities" and that the City should monitor development "... to ensure that needed (PAGE I CITY QWKEECHOBEE BAR and Zoning Department COMPREHENSIVE PLAN MAP AMENDMENT APPLICATION Please check one: PSmall Scale Amendment (Under 10 Acres) Ell-arge Scale Amendment (Over 10 Acres) Name of Property Owner Okeechobee County Mailing Address 304 NW 2nd Street Home Telephonp Work Telephone 763-6441 Name of Applicant, *If other than owner, (relationship) George Long, County Administrator Applicant Mailing Address 304 NW 2nd Street Home Telephone Worl(Telephone 763-6441 Property Address/Location 312 NW 3rd Street Property Parcel Number PI-15-37-35-0010-01250-WIO Current Zoning Designation Commercial -Professional Office (CPO) Current Future Land Use Designation Multi-familv, Commercial Existing Use of the property Government office, vacant buildings to be demolished Proposed Future Land Use Designation Public Facilities Proposed Use of the Property construction of new court facilities 1.5-s- 2 Size of Property (in acres) 4-.-tr acres Description of Surrounding Properties residences and businesses to the north, church and vacant property to the east, courthouse to the south, businesses to the west Legal Description of Property (Lengthy Description May Be Attached) lots 1-6, 10-12, Block 125 Renuired Attachments: • Survey of Property (111 " x 14", 20" Scale) o Application Fee $500.00 • Letter Outlining Request e City Location map • *Notarized Letter of Owner's A Porization Signatur, �VK'l .

Request: The applicant wishes to change the property's zoning from Commercial Professional Office (CPO) to Public Use (PUB) in order to allow construction of a new courthouse. Note: This petition is a companion to Petition 03-01-SSA a small scale amendment to the Future Land Use Map, requesting a change from Multi -Family and Commercial Future Land Use Categories to the Public Facilities Category for property located in Block 125. A Special Exception, 02-005-SE, was also approved to allow the courthouse to exceed a height of 45 feet up to 62.8 feet in height. {PAGE I Staff Report 0 Rezoning Request Applicant: Okeechobee Board of County Commissioners Petition No. 03-001-R Adjacent Future Land Use Map classifications and Zoning Districts: North: Future Land Use Map Classification: Zoning District: Existing Land Use: East: Future Land Use Map Classification: Zoning District: Existing Land Use: South: Future Land Use Map Classification: Zoning District: Existing Land Use: West: Future Land Use Map Classification: Zoning District: Existing Land Use: Single Family and Public Facilities CPO Residential and business Commercial and Multi -Family CPO Church and vacant property Public Facilities PUB Courthouse Commercial and Single Family CPO Business This request, if approved, will allow Okeechobee County to construct a new courthouse facility to augment the existing, historically significant building located to the south of the subject site. The existing courthouse will be renovated and likely will continue to provide some court functions and perhaps will house other county government offices. The proposed site plan shows that the County also proposes to close NW 3 d Street between the two city Blocks on which the proposed and the existing courthouses are located, and will increase the amount of on -street parking around the facilities. I Analysis 1. The proposed use is not contrary to Comprehensive Plan requirements. The application is consistent with requirements of the City's Comprehensive Plan. The remaining traffic and parking impacts may be addressed prior to Final Site Plan Approval. 2. The proposed use being appliedfor is specifically authorized under the zoning district in the Land Development Regulations. The proposed use is specifically authorized under the requested rezoning. {PAGE ) 0 0 Staff Report I Rezoning Request Applicant: Okeechobee Board of County Commissioners Petition No. 03-001-R 3. The proposed use will not have an adverse effect on the public interest. The proposed will not have an adverse effect on the public interest. There are some concerns regarding traffic conflicts and the proposed closure of NW 3 d Street, but such issues have been addressed during site plan review. Staff will require the applicant to submit any required impact analyses and address these issues. 4. The use is appropriate for the location proposed, is reasonably compatible with adjacent land uses, and is not contrary or detrimental to urbanizing land use patterns. The new courthouse facility is compatible with the existing historic courthouse and adjacent land uses and will not create any isolated and unrelated zoning district. There will be little negative impact to the urbanized area. 5. The proposed use will not adversely affect property values or living conditions, or be a deterrent to the improvement or development of adjacent property. The proposed use will not adversely affect property values of adjacent or nearby properties, and should help development or redevelopment of nearby properties. 6. The proposed use can be suitably bufferedftom surrounding uses, so as to reduce the impact of any nuisance or hazard to the neighborhood The proposed use will encompass two city blocks, Block 138 (existing courthouse) and Block 125 (subject property), by creating a courthouse campus with open area between the old courthouse and the new one if the proposed site plan is approved. The resulting setbacks and buffer yards will exceed the required yards of the Land Development Code. 7. The proposed use will not create a density pattern that would overburden public facilities such as schools, streets, and utility services. The proposed use will not create any density problems that would overburden any public facilities. 8. The proposed use will not create traffic congestion, flooding or drainage problems, or otherwise affectpublic safety. The applicant's proposed site plan will require closure of NW 3 d Street diverting some traffic onto other streets and around the proposed courthouse campus. The applicant also proposes to place 341 parking spaces on the surrounding streets and only 33 spaces on site. These features could result in impedance to traffic flow due to cars backing onto the *street, and possible turning conflicts at major intersections. Regardless, these potential impacts are being addressed at site plan (PAGE I ClTY OF OKEECHOBEE I Date la?- )+0;)- Petition No. 0-�,- Od z Ueneral Zzervices DeparE ent Jurisdiction: 55 SE Third Avenue +h Okeechobee, FL 34974 Fee PaiJ 00 Notices Mailed: �,hn Phone: 863-763-3372 lst Hearing -)CLn - 5(619 0001--j 2nd Hearing: 4 0003 FAX: 863-763-1686 4h 1_cD ()4,h rk Piihliryitinn Dateq- _r111jTr,1j) Unfform Land Use Appfication (Flease attach separate sheets for required additional infonnation) See ResolutionNo. 98-10:1'TROOF OF INTEREST IN PROPERTY- forrequired additional information.

Resolution 98-10, Information 4, Statement of Use Statement of special reasons and basis for the request Okeechobee County intends to construct new court facilities to augment the existing, historically significant building. The existing courthouse will be renovated and likely will continue to provide some court functions and perhaps will house other county government offices. Because the City of Okeechobee is the county seat, it is important that the courthouse, including the new court facilities, remain in the downtown area. The new court facilities will include athree-story, state of the art building that will incorporate architectural features of the historic courthouse. The existing and new court facilities, each on an entire city block, will form a judicial center for the county that will be unified by function, architecture and landscaping. The property on which the new facilities are proposed to be located is zoned Commercial Professional Office (CPO). As the new court facilities will be for government use, a more appropriate zoning classification for the property is Public Use (PUB) Intended use, nature of activities and development of property The new court facilities include a 72,922 square -foot building, proposed to be constructed in the heart of the city's business and office district. The new court facilities will house most of the court functions currently operating from the historic courthouse. In addition, the offices of the state attorney and public defender will be relocated from their current location at the County Annex on NW 5'h Avenue. The three-story building housing the new court facilities will be located in the center of an entire city block, immediately to the north of the historic courthouse. The site will be developed with on -street parking surrounding the new facilities, and the entire two -block judicial center area will be landscaped. Future plans include two more buildings to be constructed on the east and west side of the judicial center to house additional court or county government operations. Existing uses of surrounding property The subject property is in the city's office district. To the north are two residences and a business. To the cast are a church and vacant property owned by the church. To the south is the existing, historic courthouse. To the west are two businesses. Professional offices and county government buildings predominate throughout the entire area. 00001496 WPD 0 ti, 3 8 PAGE 0 5 11 Prebared ttit and return tff.

Sincerely, Peter Shishkov, P. Eng. President State of Florida County of Martin Acknowledged before me by Peter Shishkov, who is personall known to me: C. Edward Porch 0 0 Memorandum To: Lane Gamiotea, City Clerk From: Oscar Bermudez, Engineer Date: January 14, 2003 Re: Alley and Street - Closing application from Okeechobee Too, Ltd. The Engineering Department has visited the above site and has previously discussed with the Engineer of record and the Project Developer, that prior to the abandonment of the City of Okeechobee alley, the project drainage issue and its positive outfall must first be resolved. In regards to the request for closing the street right -way, the issue was also discussed and rejected by the Engineering Office. It is the Engineering Department's opinion that the City of Okeechobee should be very cautious before abandoning any street right-of-ways or alleys.

Veach, City Administrator Below is a brief summary of past and upcoming events. ADMI114ISTRATION GRIT — Attorney Hellinger has resubmitted a notice of pending matters to the court regarding the venue issue. As yet, no decision has been reached. On December 3&, the City was served a summons by the Liquidating Trustee for GRIT that we were being sued for the $48,648.03 that they claim the City owes them for payment of one of Bettye's hospital bills. The hospital now indicates to the City that they have been paid in this matter. Attorneys Cook and Robbins discussed the matter and recommend that the City make no reimbursement at this - time. Attorney Robbins has submitted a proper response to the lawsuit. Bettye Taylor is currently experiencing issues with her back and is being evaluated to determine if there is a need for additional surgery. This evaluation began on January 8th and finther testing is planned. As with all of Bettye's medical expenses related to her back, the City is paying the cost. This expenditure is coming from the legal cost line item (acct. 514). Fire Station Project — Construction is well underway. The City Engineer reports that we are on schedule and budget at this time. Industrial Park/Sheffield Environmental Services — Timelines remain the challenge in keeping the City's industrial park project alive. The City Administrator and Executive Secretary have prepared and submitted the Rural Inftastructure grant for $300,000. The bid package for phase one of the project will be advertised this week. It is anticipated the NE Wh Street bid will be advertised within the next few days, as well. Discussions related to the purchase of the necessary right-of-way are continuing with Mr. Mason. Attorney Cook is putting together proposed language in an attempt to meet Mr. Mason's terms. ADNUMSTRATION CONTINUED FINANCE Flagler Parks/Downtown — Nancy Phillips has submitted the grant application related to Flagler Parks 3-6 and storefronts, streetscaping and lighting along the North side of West Park Street. At this time, it would appear that we rank 6d' of all submittals (5 are slated to be funded). Often times, projects are withdrawn before fnial funding occurs. ln that event, we could be considered for funding. The City has submitted a request for $115,000 through a FRDAP grant to refurbish Flagler Park #2. We should have some indication as to whether or not the project will be funded by Spring. Donnie Robertson is working on permitting issues with SFWMD, DEP, etc. related to the 4th Street Boat Ramp. He anticipates this will take a couple of months. OUA Board Appointments - The current terms of two of the City's OUA Board representatives Steve Nelson (regular member) and Johnny Mack Kinsaul (alternate) expire in March. Mr. Nelson has indicated a willingness to serve again. Mr. Kinsaul is not willing to serve again. The City Council will be asked to make these appointments on February 4d. Our annual audit continues and Lola Parker reports no major concerns at this time. Upon completion, we plan to present it at a City Council meeting in the Spring. POLICE Gallagher Bassett Services, Inc. is handling a lawsuit filed by Charlene Hamner against the City of Okeechobee. Ms. Hamner is suing following an automobile collision with one of our on duty City police officers (in a police car). Mediation for this matter has been rescheduled for early March. New cars are in and being outfitted. The City Council will be asked to approve the resolution related to financing at the February 40' meeting. You will recall, this is an annual requirement. 2 �I)E PLTBLIC WORKS Construction on the street projects has been completed, with the exception of issues pertaining to NW 7'h Street.
