There were none. City Planning Consultant, Mr. Jim LaRue of LaRue Planning and Management Services, was in attendance and presented the Planning Staff Report Summary of Application. The Planning Staff Report Findings, are contained in Exhibit Three are as follows: (A) Based on the application, it would appear the proposed use (duplex) is consistent with Objective 2 and its corresponding policies in the Future Land Element. In addition, the proposed Multi -Family designation would create consistency with the RMF zoning district for this property. (B) Public water and sewer are available to the property. Any other concurrency issues will be addressed when the applicant applies for a site plan review. (C) The change from Single Family to Multi Family will not create an incompatible use with the surrounding neighborhood. The subject property's close location to other property zoned for multi -family uses create compatibility with the exiting land uses. Also, the southwestern portion of this block is in the Commercial Future Land category. (D) The proposed future land use amendment is in compliance with the specific standards of the Comprehensive Plan. There was a lengthly discussion held between the Council and Mr. LaRue. Council Member Markham noted, even though the zoning designation for this area was multiple family, the existing uses were mainly single family dwellings and allowing this map change would permit the only duplex on this street. He strongly cautioned the Council of making this change since it would create a spot zoning situation. The area is very transitional with some commercial uses in the block. The Council concluded the current characteristics of the neighborhood needs to be considered. Since it was a small scale amendment, no letters were sent to surrounding property owners.

Council discussed the proposed street and alley closing with City Engineer Bermudez, who strongly cautioned the Council against closing any streets within the Southwest.

The Council thanked Engineer Bermudez for his comments. They also noted, since the area is further to the north than the majority of the drainage problem areas and 51h Street can never be an opened access street to South Parrott Avenue, its use will be very limited to the City in the future. 204 MARCH 1, 2005 - REGULAR MEETING - PAGE 13 OF 16 AGENDA VIII.

F_j 1 MARCH 1, 2005 - REGULAR MEETING - PAGE 14 OF 16 205 I COUNCIL ACTION -DISCUSSION -VOTE Vill. NEW BUSINESS CONTINUED. C. 2. b) Discussion continued. The Land Development Regulations (LDR's) original non -conforming use regulations allowed properties and structures to continue in their present state and use including when properties were sold or title was transferred, so long as the use was not intensified or expanded. The City chose to speed up the process where non -conforming structures must be brought up to current code and standards regardless of how long the use has been in place. The main area the City had problems, which caused the amendment, was residential areas in commercial uses. However, by making this blanket change it has also effected areas where there are multi -family uses (such as a duplex) and now they cannot be sold since they are located in a Residential Single Family -One zoning districts. Attorney Cook explained further, the City receives requests for letters confirming whether a duplex can remain once it is sold and under the non- conforming use regulations the letters cannot be issued. The other solution would be a zoning and land use change, however those cannot be approved appropriately since it would create spot zoning. Therefore Staffs recommendation along with the Land Planning Agency, is to allow the residential non -conforming areas to remain in use, however they still could not intensify or increase in size. c) Vote on motion.

Markham, prohibits us to go into the business, and you want us to have that right, don't know that we would ever do it but its nice to have the right to be able to do it. Watford, sit on committee and discuss the formula on underground utilities put they can't do that, other cities have the same problem Jay M present you cannot operate an existing utility because of franchise, if you purchase electricity from another from a 3" party for city facilities only, this franchise allows that, did Joes not allow you to operate an city electricty facility, if you change it then I'd have to go back to my people and see. Kirk, don't have a problem with it either way, who knows if we would ever g Markham, just takes a right a way for 30 years, Kirk, never had that right Markham that's why you redo these things ever so often to see if you want into that business make changes. Jay, it is a right that you are being paid to give up and if you delete section I can tell you my clients would want a significant reduction in the franchise fee. Markham same franchise with county? We don't have a franchise with the c unty, we've made presentation to them but haven't agreed on anything. Brevard county is only recent coun with this language in it. Kirk, whats franchise agreement paying us do we know? 5.9% is what is proposed in this one. The franchises are evolving documents, political subdivisions need money, we nderstand that, try to find ways to do that, cal by fee in fee is adv taxes and non adv taxes that we pay in the c ty, higher taxes gives you more revenues, this takes the taxes formula out. Kirk find it hard to believe you don't have the county's. Jay, some county's h; they do not have the home rule power to enter into the franchise agreement.

Markham, street requesting to be closed, that is a street city put in years and we have paved it, we recently did this at county court house, but we does with paving it, and we are losing the investment that we have. Feel Page -8- FOR OKEECHOBEE COUNTY, of proposed Ordinance No. 884; and I don't' know, its been there ve an investment in it the public something we need to discuss. Watford, own both blocks, Yes. Only saving grace is that street is not open to the east, is to the west, but not to the east limits what that street can be used for, wont have to maintain it any more Kirk, initial reaction was that I had a problem with it until I realized that you ould never go all the way to 441 on there, don't think we could abandon that street. Cook, memo in package from Oscar and wanted to address that, new building where street is, adaquate drainage during TRC site review. Oscar, ever since I have been with the city I have issued cautions to the council when closing any street or alley, I believe in the future to solve the problems with the drainage we are gong to need every street and alley available and we are slowing losing the inventory for the area to store the A ater during wet seasons. Giving away a paved street is even worse, not my intention to be against future development but I strongly caution you because of the drainage issues and will continue with the same attitud . Watford, this area, particular, appreciate your concern and thoughts, this immediate area doesn't have a drainage problem around the church does it. No but will need everything when we go to fix the problem. John if they build a new building they will be required to have onsite retention. Oscar, yes, but that is not how to solve the problem, the main drainage system belongs to DOT and its 20-30 years old and that is all we have. John retenion pond will held the church but not the city's overall drainage problem. Chandler that street doesn't have swells on it anyway. Oscar right and that is another reason why we need to keep is to install the swells along right of ways. c) Vote on motion. VOTE YEA NAY ABSTAIN ABSENT KIRK X CHANDLER X MARKHAM X WATFORD X L.

He continued by explaining, the original Ordinance was created to help govern commercial uses. For example, if a business is currently operating with a non -conforming use, that use could not continue if the business was sold. In residential zoning it is becoming more and more of a problem as well. He explained that the issue arose when the City Clerk was considering the purchase of a duplex in Residential Single Family - One (RSF-1) zoning. The duplex has been existing for years and is currently not listed as a permitted use within Residential Single Family zoning. The mortgage companies are now' requiring letters from the City explaining if the current use will be permitted if the property is sold. Attorney Cook is recommending that the Land Planning Agency recommend to City Council to remove residential from the Ordinance. He advised the Agency that the Ordinance could be amended in the future if this becomes a problem. Agency Member Mavroides explained that he has concerns with the proposed removal of the reference to residential non -conformities in the proposed Ordinance. He explained that all new developments are required to meet the newer more stringent codes, however an existing duplex in Single Family Zoning would be permitted to continue. Attorney Cook explained that the alternative would be to require the owners to apply for a rezoning The Okeechobee News P.O.

John Cook, City Attorney explained to the Agency Members that this proposed Ordinance has been set on the March 1, 2005 City Council Agenda. He continued by explaining, the original Ordinance was created to help govern commercial uses. For example, if a business is currently operating with a non -conforming use, that use could not continue if the business was sold. In residential zoning it is becoming more and more of a problem as well. He explained that the issue arose when the City Clerk was considering the purchase of a duplex in Residential Single Family - One (RSF-1) zoning. The duplex has been existing for years and is currently not listed as a permitted use within Residential Single Family zoning. The mortgage companies are now I� the requiring letters From City ry-explaining ifthe current use will be permitted if the property is sold. Attorney Cook is recommending that the Land Planning Agency recommend to City Council to remove residential from the Ordinance. He advised the Agency that the Ordinance could be amended in the future if this becomes a problem. Agency Member Mavroides explained that he has concerns with the proposed removal of the reference to residential non -conformities in the proposed Ordinance. He explained that all new developments are required to meet the newer more stringent codes, however an existing duplex in Single Family Zoning would be permitted to continue. Attorney Cook explained that the alternative would be to require the owners to apply for a rezoning February 22, 2005 - Land Planning Agency - Page 6 of 7 AGENDA ACTION - DISCUSSION - VOTE VI.

Consider proposed Ordinance 885 specifically regarding non -conforming uses, and future land use map amendment to bring the property into compliance. He continued, that this continued. would cause spot zoning in many cases, the City Planner and City Council prefer not to do this. Attorney Cook explained that he and Mr. LaRue had discussed this, and the proposed Ordinance was a better choice than to allow spot zoning throughout the City. Agency Member Mavroides stated that in certain commercial zoning districts a restaurant may not be allowed, and in residential single family zoning a duplex is not allowed, they are both non- conforming whether in residential or commercial. Agency Member McCoy questioned the other Agency Members whether there should be special attention paid to multi -family units where the owner lives in one unit, and rents the others out. Attorney Cook explained that this was not the case. Attorney Cook explained that the building would not be allowed to be extended or expanded. there will be some limitations. Attorney Cook recommended that the Agency recommend that the City Council amend the Land Development Regulation's regarding non -conforming uses in residential zoning. Agency Member Mavroides motioned to advise the City Council to amend Section 90-35, paying special care to the residential category and that further investigation be made regarding the specific in residential areas; Member McCoy.

O'Rourke, P.E., Inc. was retained to prepare a traffic lysis for the proposed addition of a 8,758 square foot restaurant and;`square feet of office to an existing 3,200 square foot building. The purpose of the report is to C.etermine the number of parking spaces required for the site. The Okeechobee City Code, Sec.90-482 Computation of required off-street parking and loading spaces paragraph 6 allows: Parking spaces for two or more uses may be combined, provide that the total number of spaces shall not be less than the sum of required spaces computed separately. Where it can be demonstrated that the need for parking spaces from specific uses do not overlap in time, the number of spaces may be reduced by the number re fired by the lesser use. In Sec. 90-483 Modification of parking and loading space requi ements. Modification of parking and loading space requirements shall be as follows " (1) The number of spaces may be increased, decreased, or deferred by the city council when. a. A parking study demonstrate that the proposed use Would have a demand in excess or, or less than, the requirements of these Regulations. b. parking study demonstrated that the hours of need f r maximum parking for two or more joint uses do not normally overlap. In Sec. 90-485 Reduction of parking space requirements in commercial districts This section allows for up to 20% of the parking spaces to b accommodated on the street. The analysis relies on those provisions outlined above to estimate the needed parking spaces. PROJECT DESCRIPTION/PARKING DEMAND The proposed development would have 8,758 square feet of restaurant and 12,590 square feet of office. Figure 1 shows the project site layout.
