October 25, 2005 - Planning Board - Page 2 of 3
IV. NEW BUSINESS.
A.
Rezoning Petition No. 05-011-R. Consider a recommendation to the City
Council to rezone Lot 3 and the West Y2 of Lot 2, Block 254, Town of
Okeechobee, from Heavy Commercial (CHV) to Residential Single Family - One
(RSF-l). The subject property is located at 412 SE 2nd Street. The property
owner and applicant is Bertha Williams.
.
.
Jim LaRue, City Planning Consultant, briefly described the Staff Report as follows:
Planning Staff Report Summary: The Subject property is zoned CHV on the Official Zoning
Map. The Single Family Future Land Use Category provides guidance as to what is considered
appropriate development for the property. This request is consistent with the Single Family
Category and would bring the zoning into compliance if granted.
Planning Staff Report Analysis: (1) The proposed Single Family residence and RSF-1 zoning
is not contrary to the Single-Family Future Land Use requirements. (2) Single Family homes are
allowed under Section 90-12 (1) of the Land Development Code. (3) The Single Family use will
not adversely affect the public interest. In fact, this request for RSF-1 is more compatible than the
current CHV zoning. (4) The proposed use is appropriate for the location and is compatible with
surrounding uses. (5) The proposed use and zoning will not adversely affect the property values
or living conditions. (6) This can be suitably buffered from the surrounding areas. However, it
is not required for such a low impact use. (7) The single family use will not overburden public
facilities. (8) Naturally, the proposed RSF-1 zoning will be less intense than the current CHV
zoning. As such, it appears that traffic, flooding or drainage will not be a problem. (9) The only
restrictions imposed on the property are those set forth in the Comprehensive Plan and the Land
Development Code. (10) No special privileges will be granted to the owners that would contrast
with the public welfare.
Planning Staff Report Summary and Conclusions Prior to Certification: The proposed
rezoning from CHV to RSF-1 is compatible with the surrounding uses and consistent with the
Single Family Future Land Use Category.
Planning Staff Report Recommendation: Staff recommends approval of the request to allow
rezoning from CHV to RSF-1 permitting the applicant to construct a single family home on the
subject property.
There were no pubic comments, nor any discussion from the Board.

Development Code.

Staff Report
Rezoning Request
Applicant: Bertha L. Williams
Petition No.: 05-011-R
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.
No, the proposed use and zoning will not adversely affect the property values or
living conditions.
6. The proposed use can be suitably buffered from surrounding uses, so as to reduce the
impact of any nuisance or hazard to the neighborhood
Yes, this can be suitably buffered from the surrounding areas. However, it is not
required for such a low impact use,
7. The proposed use will not create a density pattern that would overburden public
facilities such as schools, streets, and utility services.
No, the single family use will not overburden public facilities.
8. The proposed use will not create traffic congestion, flooding or drainage problems,
or otherwise affect public safety.
Naturally, the proposed RSF-1 zoning will be less intense than the current CRV
zoning. As such, it appears that traffic, flooding or drainage will not be a problem,
9. The proposed use has not been inordinately burdened by unnecessary restrictions.
No, the only restrictions imposed on the property are those set forth in the
Comprehensive Plan and the Land Development Code.
10. The proposed change will not constitute a grant of special privilege to an individual
owner as contrasted with the public welfare.
No special privileges will be granted to the owners that would contrast with the public
welfare.
Summary and Conclusions Prior to Certification
The proposed rezoning from CHV to RSF-1 is compatible with the surrounding uses
and consistent with the Single Family Future Land Use Category.
