Consider a recommendation to the City Council, to change the land use designation for Lots 14-16 of Block 19, City of Okeechobee, from Single Family (SF) to Multi-Fa~ily (MF). The subject property is located within the 300 Block of Northwest 12th Street. The application was submitted by Carl Ferrero, on behalf of property owner(s) CR Investments of Okeechobee, Inc. VOTE BURROUGHS - YEA HOOVER - YEA KELLER - YEA LEDFERD - YEA JOHNS - YEA MCCOY - YEA WHIDDEN - YEA MOTION CARRIED. Mr. Jim LaRue of LaRue Planning and Management, City Planning Consultant, briefly reviewed the Staff Report as follows: Planning Staff Report Summary: Mr. Carl Ferrero submitted the application on behalf of the property owners, CR Investments of Okeechobee, Inc., requesting to change on the Future Land Use Map from a Single Family to Multi-Family. The property is located within the 300 block of Northwest 12th Street. Legal description being: Lots 14 to 16 of Block 19, City of Okeechobee and is 0.517 acres in size. This would allow approximately 5 units as the Residential Multiple Family Zoning and Multi-Family Future Land Use category allows 10 dwelling units per acre. Planning Staff Report Comprehensive Plan Analysis: (A) In examining the City's Multi-Family Future Land Use category, approximately 18 acres of land are planned for Multi-Family development. Until development of the surrounding vacant multi-family areas are complete, it seems more logical for the subject property to remain in the Single Family Future Land Use classification until the City's demand for this type of development increases enough to meet its supply. (B) Water and sewer availability would probably not be an issue for this site. However, the impacts on Northwest 15th Street and Northwest 3rd Avenue cannot be determined until full development of the adjacent properties has occurred. (C) The existing single family uses to the north and east would not be benefitted by allowing this conversion. There are plenty of multi-family uses to the west and south of the subject property. The City has more than enough vacant land being developed for multi-family use. (D) As stated earlier, this amendment is not necessary at this time. Considering that the City's population increases by approximately 100 person per year, the Multi-Family Future Land Use category has enough land to accommodate the population. IV. NEW BUSINESS CONTINUED. A. Comprehensive Plan, Future Land Use Map Amendment Application No. Planning Staff Report Analysis and Conclusions: The request to amend the Future Land Use Map I 06-003-SSA continued. from Single Family to Multi-Family is not recommended for approval based on the above information. Mr. Muhammad Noorudin, the prospective buyer, addressed the Agency and explained that he has lived in this area for ten years. He is a Physical Therapist and a co-owner of Big Lake Home Health Services. His concern is affordable housing, stating further that he has a high employee turnover rate due to the fact that they could not find affordable housing in Okeechobee. Mr. Rob Willson, Managing Director of CR Investments of Okeechobee, Inc., addressed the Agency and stated he has been following City Council action regarding the amount of zoning approvals for Multi- Family, but that the previous applicants, Goodbread and Altobello, have not proceeded with their plans, causing a continued need of affordable multi-family dwellings. There were no other comments from the public. The Agency briefly discussed the application. I Agency Member McCoy motioned to recommend to City Council to approve Comprehensive Plan, Future Land Use Map Amendment Application 06-003-SSA, to change the land use designation from Single Family to Multi-Family; seconded by Agency Member Hoover.

Comprehensive Plan, Future Land Use Map Amendment Application No. 06-004-SSA. Consider a recommendation to the City Council, to change the land use designation for Lots 4-6, Block 251, First Addition to Okeechobee, from Single Family (SF) to Multi-Family (MF). The subject property is located at 702 and 704 Southwest 7th A venue. The application was submitted by Malissa Morgan on behalf of the property owner(s) A Child's Wodd Childcare and Preschool, Inc. c. Comprehensive Plan, Future Land Use Map Amendment Application No. 06-00S-SSA. Consider a recommendation to the City Council, to change the land use designation for Lots 5 and 6 of Block 20S, First Addition to Okeechobee, from Single Family (SF) to Commercial (C). The subject property is located at 203 Southeast 2nd A venue. The application was submitted by property owner(s) Bennie C. And Laura K. Sims. The applicant, Mrs. Morgan submitted a letter requesting that the application be postponed or tabled. She is requiring additional time to address questions Mr. LaRue has in regards to her application. The project engineer, Mr. Jeff Sumner is currently working with Mr. LaRue and his staff on the matter, therefore the March 28, 2006 meeting should be sufficient time. The consensus of the Aeency was to erant a time extension for Application No. 06-004-SSA until March 28. 2006. Mr. LaRue briefly reviewed the Planning Staff Report as follows: Planning Staff Report Summary: The matter for consideration is an application, submitted by the property owners, Bennie and Laura Sims, for a Future Land Use Map Amendment from Single Family to Commercial. Based on the size of the property (0.3271 acres), this application qualifies under Chapter 163 of the Florida Statutes as a Small-Scale Amendment to the Comprehensive Plan. The application is also requesting a rezoning change from RMF to CLT for the property. The property is located at 203 Southeast 2nd A venue. Legal Description being: Lots 6 and 6 of Block 206, First Addition to Okeechobee. Planning Staff Report Comprehensive Plan Analysis: (A) Single Family neighborhoods should be protected from intrusive land use types which generate traffic and other activities inconsistent with the quiet residential character of the area. The applicant's request for a Commercial Future Land Use category is inconsistent with the Comprehensive Plan. Policy 2.4 states that the City must establish compatibility criteria for adjacent land uses. If approved, the proposed Commercial category at this location would be contrary to the intended use of commercial areas as prescribed by the Comprehensive Plan and the Land Development Code. (B) If approved, adequate public facilities will be available to the site. (C) The requested Map amendment is compatible with adjacent uses to the west of the subject property. However, it is not deemed compatible with the residential neighborhood in which it is located. Nearby commercial uses have more direct access to roadways, which serves the commercial uses located along them (such as, Parrott Avenue and Park Street). Approval of the Commercial Future Land Use category could cause potentially more commercial traffic in the neighborhood as a result of any number of more intense commercial uses, which would be permitted to operate at this site. (D) The proposed map change will cause more intensive uses than the other existing and future land uses in this neighborhood. IV. NEW BUSINESS CONTINUED. c. Comprehensive Plan, Future Land Use Map Amendment Application No. 06-005-SSA continued. Planning Stafr Report Analysis and Conclusions: Staff does not recommend approval of the I applicant's request to amend the Future Land Use Map to Commercial because the proposed amendment is inconsistent with the Comprehensive Plan and could be detrimental to the surrounding residential area. Mr. LaRue stated that there are recommended percentages of commercial verses residential areas which the estimation is 5 to 10 percent. Okeechobee is approximately at 15 percent. Mr. John E. Vanberschot, surrounding property owner residing at 210 Southeast 3rd Street, addressed the Agency with his concern about those that have residences in this area are being forced out due to the Commercial uses being put in and the heavy traffic of trucks passing through. He remarked that if this is allowed than others will soon follow, and what will happen to the residential neighborhood. He stated that he has lived here for 30 years and would like to continue to live here. Mr. Sims, addressed the Agency and explained that the proposed use of the property is Light I Commercial and assured everyone that there will be no heavy trucks passing through due to his project since his business is an accounting office. He feels that it will be a face lift for the area with the renovations that are being made. Chairperson Ledferd remarked that the use will be a professional office and unfortunately due to growth, the area is moving towards a commercial area. Agency Member Hoover questioned as to why it is not being changed to CPO and recommended it be CPO so there would be no thru-way for trucks. However, since this is for Future Land Use only, the density of the zoning change will have to be addressed at the Planning Board meeting. Whether or not the matter be considered for an overall commercial use is what has to be addressed at this meeting. There were no other comments from the public. Agency Member McCoy moved to recommend to City Council to approve Comprehensive Plan Future I Land Use map Amendment Application No. 06-005-SSA, to change the land use designation from Single Family (SF) to Commercial (C); seconded by Agency Member Hoover.

New Business. A. Comprehensive Plan, Future Land Use Map Amendment Application No. 06-001-SSA. Consider a recommendation to the City Council, to change the land use designation for Lots 9-10, Block 143, City of Okeechobee, from Multi-Family to Commercial. The subject property is located within the 300 Block of Northeast 2nd Street. The property owners and applicants are E. David and Judy Hester. Jim LaRue of LaRue Planning and Management, City Planning Consultant, briefly described the Staff Report as follows: Planning Staff Report Summary: The subject property is currently vacant. The uses that are allowed on the property are multi-family residential in nature. However, this neighborhood is within a transitional stage whereas commercial uses are beginning to dominate the area. While there are still some residential uses nearby, the immediate area north and south of the subject property tends to favor light commercial uses. Planning Staff Report Comprehensive Plan Analysis: (A) The surrounding land use categories have been, within the last year, changing from Multiple-Family to Commercial. As a result, the subject property has become isolated as it is surrounded on all sides by light commercial uses. Based on the application, it would appear that the proposed office use is consistent with Objective 2 and its corresponding policies. The use being proposed is similar to surrounding existing uses in the area. (B) Public utilities, including sanitation and sewer, should be available to this site. The proposed Commercial Future Land Use will require a site plan review before its development. At this time, it appears that concurrency can be met. (C) As discussed earlier in this report, the proposed commercial use would be in harmony with adjacent and nearby uses. The office building would not adversely impact the area. (D) The proposed request seems to be consistent with the land use, traffic ways and other standards set forth in the Plan. All standards of development will have to be met as per specific policies governing floor area ratios and the maximum impervious surface for development within the Commercial Future Land Use Category. Planning Staff Report Analysis and Conclusions: Based on the above analysis, Staff recommends approval of the request to allow a Small Scale Future Land Use Map Amendment from Multiple-Family to Commercial. David Hester, applicant, explained that the proposed development for this site would consist of a new State Farm Office Building. He stated that he was available to answer any questions that the Agency may have. There was no public comment, nor any Agency discussion. IV.. . New Business, continued. A.

YEA MOTION CARRIED. e e Planning Staff Report Comprehensive Plan Analysis: (A) The applicant's request is consistent with the Industrial Future Land Use Category as described by the Comprehensive Plan. (B) Public utilities should be available to the site. The proposed use will require a site plan review before its construction to ensure concurrency. (C) The proposed use should not adversely impact the surrounding area. During the site plan review phase, the TRC will determine what type of buffering, if any, would be required to screen the use. (D) The proposed request appears to be consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. All standards will have to be met with regard to floor area ratios and maximum impervious surfaces. Agency Member Maxwell questioned whether the surrounding streets were improved. Jim laRue, City Planning Consultant, explained that the streets are not currently improved; however, the developer would be required to develop them. Mr. LaRue explained that this would be reviewed during the Site Plan Review process. - IV. New Business, continued. B.

William Ledferd, Chairperson Katrina Cook, Secretary Orlando Rodriguez, property owner, explained that he felt that this site was appropriate for Industrial Future Land Use due to the location. He stated that a residential development would not be desirable for this property since it is situated between the jail and the railroad tracks. There was no public comment, nor any Agency discussion.

We are requesting a land use change from single family to multi-family. The zoning is already multi-family. The request is due to the land use change approved for the parcel ofland adjacent to and south of our property to multi-family. The owner is constructing a two-story multi- family building that looks down upon our property. Therefore, we believe the best use of the property at this time is also for multi-family, consistent with the neighborhood trend. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call.

Address: 410 SE 2nd Ave Okeechobee, FL 34974 Carl Ferrero 863-763-0999 863-763-1945 Contact Person Phone Number: Fax Number: Future Land Use Map Classification Zonin District Use of Property Acreage Single Family Existing Proposed Multi-Family RMF Vacant 0.5165 Location: NW 12th Street None 0.5165 Legal Description: Lots 14, 15, and 16, Block 19, City of Okeechobee, according to the plat thereof recorded in Plat Book 5, Page 5, Public Records of Okeechobee County, Florida. Request: The applicant requests a change on the Future Land Use Map from Single Family to Multi-Family. The property is 0.517 acres in size. This would allow approximately 5 units as the RMF Zoning and Multi-Family Future Land Use category allows 10 dwelling units per acre.

According to Okeechobee property appraiser lot is vacant. Multi-Family RMF Vacant 1 Staff Report Small-Scale Comprehensive Plan Amendment e Applicant: CR I.stments of Okeechobee, Inc. Petition No. 06-003-SSA Summary: The City has experienced several requests to either rezone or reclassify land for multi-family use. Development for multi family use however has not occurred. As such, the City has a surplus of vacant land, which is intended for multi-family use. Comprehensive Plan Analysis A. Consistency with the Land Use Categories and Plan Policies. In examining the City's Multi-Family Future Land Use category, approximately 18 acres ofland are planned for Multi-Family development. Until development ofthe surrounding vacant multi-family areas are complete, it seems more logical for the subject property to remain in the Single Family Future Land Use classification until the City's demand forthis type of development increases enough to meet its supply. B. Concurrency of Adequate Public Facilities Water and Sewer availability would probably not be an issue for this site. However, the impacts on NW 15th Street and NW 3rd Avenue cannot be determined until full development of the adjacent properties has occurred. C. Compatibility with Adjacent and Nearby Land Uses The existing single family uses to the north and east, would not be benefited by allowing this conversion. There are plenty of multi-family uses to the west and south of the subject property. The City has more than enough vacant land being developed for multi-family use. D. Compliance with Specific Standards of the Plan. As stated eadier, this amendment is not necessary at this time. Considering that the City's population increases by approximately 100 persons per year, the Multi- Family Future Land Use category has enough land to accommodate the population. Analysis and Conclusions The request to amend the Future Land Use Map from Single Family to Multi-Family is not recommended for approval based on the above information.

Request: The matter for consideration is for an amendment to the City ofOkeechobee's Future Land Use Map from Single Family to Multi-Family to allow a day care facility on the subject property. Based on the size of the property (0.688 acres), this application qualifies under Chapter 163, F.S., as a small-scale amendment to the Comprehensive Plan. Concurrent with this request, the applicant is also requesting a rezoning for the subject property from RSF -1 to RMF.

Small-Scale Comprehensive Plan Amendment Petition No. 06-G04-SSA West: Future Land Use Map Classification: Zoning District: Existing Land Use: Single Family Holding Church Summary: The applicant is requesting a Future Land Use Map change from Single Family to Multi-Family to expand an existing day care facility located on lots 1,2, and 3. The existing use is immediately north of the subject property and, according to the applicant, has 165 students and 5-full time employees. The applicant stated that the new facility will care for approximately 60 pre-school aged children and operate the same hours as the existing facility. This equates to two separate but adjacent facilities with over 220 students at this location. Comprehensive Plan Analysis A. Consistency with the Land Use Categories and Plan Policies. The applicant's request for a Small Scale Map Amendment to allow a Multi-Family Future Land Use category is inconsistent as it pertains to the intent and use of the Multi-Family category described in the Comprehensive Plan. Policy 2.1 of the Future Land Use Element describes the permitted uses in this district to include apartments, duplexes, single-family dwellings and public facilities. In addition, the Comprehensive Plan also states that the City must prevent expansion of existing land uses, which are inconsistent with the Future Land Use Element. The applicant's day care center to the north has a Commercial Future Land Use category and a RMF Zoning. This, in and of itself, is not in accordance with the provisions of the Future Land Use Element. Specifically, the following objectives and policies: Objective 2: The City ofOkeechobee shall continue to ensure that all new development is consistent with the Future Land Use Element. Policy 2.4: The City, through revision of the appropriate land development regulations, shall continue to establish compatibility criteria for a4jacent land uses. Objective 3: The City of Okeechobee shall continue to work toward the elimination or reduction in size or intensity of existing land uses and zoning designations which are not consistent with the Future Land Use Element. The subject property would seem to be more consistent with the Comprehensive Plan policies by remaining in the Single Family Future Land Use category and retaining the compatible existing single family dwelling which is currently on the site. The combination of an existing intensive daycare plus a major increase of that intensity would add to possible traffic congestion and circulation difficulties. 2 Staff Report Applicant: A Child's WOrlu Childcare & Preschool, Inc. Small-Scale Comprehensive Plan Amendment Petition No. 06-004-SSA B. Concurrency of Adequate Public Facilities The City's water and sewer service area includes the subject property and adequate public facilities are available. However, impacts on the local roadways cannot be determined at this time. As stated earlier, in speaking with the applicant there are 165 students enrolled in the existing day care and 5 full time employees. The proposed facility will care for another 60 students and the necessary employees. Ingress and egress to the site may create detrimental impacts on roads adjacent to the site, causing them to operate below the adopted level of service standards. No road impact analysis studies have been furnished to refute possible negative traffic impacts. C. Compatibility with Adjacent and Nearby Land Uses The requested map amendment is deemed incompatible with adjacent uses in the area. Except for the public schoolto the east and the north, the entire area is single- family. If approved, the requested amendments could be perceived as intensifying traffic in this residential area. Because the requested use is only allowed as a special exception. the applicants must also submit a site plan outlining the flow of traffic on the site and showing that adequate parking spaces could be accommodated on the site. D. Compliance with Specific Standards of the Plan. There is no evidence presented to show this property in terms of roadway capacity and compatibility would be best served by changing its Future Land Use Classification to Multi-Family. Analysis and Conclusions The request to change the Future Land Use Classification from Single Family to Multiple Family is not recommended for approval based on the above information. In addition, the applicant's application for a rezoning change from RSF-l to RMF is also being recommended for denial. Maps or Diagrams Submitted by: James G.

Request: The matter for consideration is an application for a Future Land Use Map Amendment from Single Family to Commercial. Based on the size of the property (0.3271 acres), this application qualifies under Chapter 163 of the Florida Statutes as a Small-Scale Amendment to the Comprehensive Plan. The applicant is also requesting a rezoning change from RMF to CL T for the property.

Sims Petition No. 06-005-SSA Summary: The subject property contains a residential structure. As stated earlier in this report, the applicant is requesting an amendment to Commercial. This will allow the applicant to operate an accounting office at the property. The surrounding area is a single-family neighborhood and a commercial office would be out of place if allowed. Comprehensive Plan Analysis A. Consistency with the Land Use Categories and Plan Policies. Single Family neighborhoods should be protected from intrusive land use types which generate traffic and other activities inconsistent with the quiet residential character of the area. The applicant's request for a Commercial Future Land Use category is inconsistent with the Comprehensive Plan. Policy 2.4 states that the City must establish compatibility criteria for adjacent land uses. If approved, the proposed Commercial category at this location would be contrary to the intended use of commercial areas as prescribed by the Comprehensive Plan and the Land Development Code. B. Concurrency of Adequate Public Facilities If approved, adequate public facilities will be available to the site. C. Compatibility with Adjacent and Nearby Land Uses The requested Map amendment is compatible with adjacent uses to the west of the subject property. However, it is not deemed compatible with the residential neighborhood in which it is located. Nearby commercial uses have more direct access to roadways, which serves the commercial uses located along them (such as, Parrott Avenue and Park Street.) Approval of the Commercial Future Land Use category could cause potentially more commercial traffic in the neighborhood as a result of any number of more intense commercial uses, which would be permitted to operate at this site. D. Compliance with Specific Standards of the Plan. The proposed map change will cause more intensive uses than the other existing and future land uses in this neighborhood. 2 , Staff Report Small-Scale Comprehensive Plan Amendment e APPliC! Bennie C. & Laura K. Sims Petition No. 06-00S-SSA Analysis and Conclusions Staff does not recommend approval of the applicant's request to amend the Future Land Use Map to Commercial because the proposed amend is inconsistent with the Comprehensive Plan and could be detrimental to the surrounding residential area.
