CHAIRPERSON HOOVER OPENED THE PUBLIC HEARING AT 6:25 P.M. A. Chairperson Hoover yielded the floor to City Planning Consultant Ben Smith of LaRue Planning and Management Services who briefly reviewed the Planning Staff Report for Abandonment of Right -of -Way Petition No. 20 -001 -AC -SC, which requests to vacate the 20 -foot wide by 512.5 -foot long East to West alleyway lying between Lots 1 through 10 and Lots 17 through 26, of Block 39, CITY OF OKEECHOBEE, Plat Books 1 and 5, Pages 10 and 5, Public of Records of Okeechobee County, and a 70 -foot wide by 5,12.5 - foot long portion of Northwest 10th Street, formally known as Sixteenth Avenue, lying between Lots 1 through 10, Block 39 and Lots 17 through 26, Block 28, CITY OF OKEECHOBEE, Plat Books 1 and 5, Pages 10 and 5, Public of Records of Okeechobee County. He stated recently the vacant portion of Block 39 contiguous to the subject rights-of-way was approved for a Future Land Use Map Amendment (FLUM) to Multi - Family Residential (MF) and a Rezoning change to Residential Multiple Family (RMF). Should this request be approved, the Applicant intends to join the vacant portion of Block 28 to the North and construct a multifamily residential project. July 16, 2020 Planning Board & Workshop Meeting Page 1 of 3 r—� V. PUBLIC HEARING ITEM CONTINUED With those recent FLUM and Zoning approvals and the property to the North being designated as MF Residential on the FLUM and RMF on the zoning map, it seems appropriate to place the same designation on the vacated property. This designation is also necessary if the Applicant is to complete the stated goal of developing a multi -family residential project at this site. The Petition was reviewed by the Technical Review Committee at their meeting on June 18, 2020 and a motion was made to recommend approval. Planning Staff is recommending approval based on the following responses to the required findings. The alleyway is not the sole means of access to any property. The property owner of the parcel to the North of the Northwest 10th Street right-of-way, Fosler LLC, has provided consent and the Applicant owns the Southern half. The proposed right- of-way areas to be vacated have not been improved to facilitate vehicular travel. Turning over maintenance responsibility to the Applicant and adding property to the City's tax rolls will be a benefit to the City. Finally, the Applicant has received authorization from all necessary utility entities. Mr. Steven Dobbs, with SLD Engineering, who represents the Applicant, Mr. Omar Abuaita, and Mr. Randy Simler, Co -Owner of Fosler LLC and property owner to the North of the subject Northwest 10th Street Right -of -Way, were present for questions. Mr. Dobbs pointed out the Northwest 10th Street right-of-way was actually 100 feet wide per the survey instead of 70 feet. Board Member Brass stated she has no issues with the project though voiced a concern with "giving away" these rights-of-way instead of having a policy in place to assign some sort of worth to them. She commented she knows the Hamrick Trust is paid but does one pay the City. Mr. Simler stated he has paid quite a bit of money for the property and plans to join them together whether the properties get developed or not. Property taxes will still have to be paid either way. 2. Chairperson Hoover opened the floor for public comment. There were none. The Petition was advertised in the local newspaper, two signs were posted on the subject property and courtesy notices were mailed to nine surrounding property owners. 3. No disclosures of Ex -Parte were offered. 4. A motion was offered by Member Baughman to recommend approval to the City Council for Abandonment of Right -of -Way Petition 20 -001 -AC -SC requesting to vacate an unimproved portion of Northwest 10th Street, formally known as Sixteenth Avenue, running East to West and lying South of Lots 17 to 26 of Block 28, and North of Lots 1 to 10 of Block 39, approximately 70 -feet by 512.5 -feet, OKEECHOBEE, Plat Books 1 and 5, Pages 10 and 5, Public of Records of Okeechobee County; and vacate the East to West alleyway in Block 39; seconded by Member Jonassaint. a) The Board offered no further discussion. b) Chairperson Hoover, Vice Chairperson McCoy, Board Members Baughman, Brass, Chartier, Granados and Jonassaint, voted: Aye. Nays: None. Motion Carried. The recommendation will be forwarded to the City Council for consideration at a Public Hearing, tentatively September 1, 2020, 6:00 P.M. CHAIRPERSON HOOVER CLOSED THE PUBLIC HEARING AT 6:38 P. M. VI. CHAIRPERSON HOOVER RECESSED THE REGULAR MEETING AND CONVENED THE WORKSHOP AT 6:38 P.M. A. City Planning Consultant Mr. Smith briefly reviewed the Staff Report for the Workshop regarding Rezoning of Holding Properties. The City's FLUM and Zoning maps have several existing types of conflicts. Properties with zoning designations that are inconsistent with the Future Land Use (FLU) designation; properties with existing land uses that are inconsistent with map designations; and lastly, properties zoned Holding. July 16, 2020 Planning Board & Workshop Meeting Page 2 of 3 N N VI. WORKSHOP ITEM CONTINUED This Workshop is to discuss City initiated rezoning of properties currently zoned Holding Several years ago, the Holding district regulations were removed from the land development code. It was intended at that time that most properties zoned Holding would be rezoned to one of the single-family residential zoning districts or to the Rural Heritage district. The Rural Heritage district was conceived in order to provide an appropriate zoning district to continue to be used for agricultural purposes. The City's Comprehensive Plan was also amended at that time to allow limited agriculture in the appropriate FLU categories to address existing lands in the City where agricultural activities have been and continue to be active. Since there are no longer any Holding district regulations provided in the code that would regulate development of properties zoned Holding, the Holding designation is no longer supported by the City's land development code. At this time, if any property owner of land zoned Holding is seeking to develop that property, a rezoning must be performed first. At the November 21, 2019 Workshop Meeting, staff received directions from the Planning Board to proceed with recommendations for City initiated rezoning of the Holding properties. Currently 55 parcels of land within the City are zoned Holding. A few are developed, though most are undeveloped or used for agricultural purposes. Most of the Holding properties are designated as Single Family Residential (SF) on the FLUM, though there are two with Commercial designations and one with Mixed Use Residential. Mr. Smith provided FLUM and Zoning sub maps to the Board depicting eight separate areas of the City. Properties within those sub maps are labeled with map ID numbers. He explained several tasks would need to be considered. Separate applications and staff reports for each map ID; contacting each property owner; advertising; surveys which either would need to be provided by the property owner or the City; and should the map changes allow for an increased intensity of the use, then the effects to public facilities, utilities and services will need to be accessed. A lengthy discussion followed centered around whether to create an actual zoning district for Holding, to how it was initially introduced and why the maps were created with this zoning designation if no regulations remained, to what transpired in past years when some of these Holding properties were rezoned. The consensus of the Board was to have the City Attorney and the City Planner get together and do some further research. To determine if there is a way to approach this task without surveys, if applicable, to gather more information on the cost involved, and a more detailed approach to be able to make decisions on how to proceed. CHAIRPERSON HOOVER ADJOURNED THE WORKSHOP AND RECONVENED THE REGULAR MEETING AT 7:14 P.M. VII. There be no further items on the agenda, Chairperson Hoover adjourned the meeting at 7:14 P.M. Dawn T.

CHAIRPERSON HOOVER OPENED THE PUBLIC HEARING AT 6:04 P.M. A. City Planning Consultant Mr. Ben Smith of LaRue Planning and Management Services briefly reviewed the Planning Staff Report for Comprehensive Plan Small Scale Future Land Use Map (FLUM) Amendment Application No 20 -002 -SSA, which requests to change the Future Land Use (FLU) designation from Single Family Residential (SF) and Multi -Family Residential (MF) to Industrial (1) on 2.87± acres located in the 500 to 600 blocks of Southwest 7th Avenue. Mr. Smith explained the Applicant has submitted a concurrent request to rezone the same parcels from Residential Multiple Family (RMF) to Industrial (IND). The Applicant owns the industrial property to the North of these three vacant parcels and has not submitted any proposed plans or provided any comments regarding the potential development of the property other than the stated desire to expand his existing manufacturing of compressed air canisters operations. The maximum density allowable in the SF Residential FLU Category is four units per acre or five if the units qualify as affordable housing. With the affordable maximum development potential for 1.269 acres (the total of two vacant parcels, 0.409 and 0.86 acres) would be six single- family dwellings. The maximum density allowable in the MF Residential FLU Category is 10 units per acre or 11 if the units qualify as affordable housing. DRAFT May 21, 2020 Regular Meeting Page 1 of 10 With the affordable maximum development potential for the 1.6 acres (total of last vacant parcel) would be 17 multi -family dwellings. While the I FLU category allows for a maximum floor area ratio (FAR) of 3.0, the IND zoning district only allows a maximum building coverage of 50 percent and a maximum building height of 45 feet (without a special exception approval). These limitations allow for a potential four-story structure, a maximum FAR of 2.0 and a maximum floor area of approximately 250,000 square feet. However, given that a four-story industrial structure is not likely, it may be more practical to expect a one or two-story structure if this map change is approved. 1. Mr. Steve Dobbs, consultant for the Applicant, Loumax Development Inc., on behalf of the Property Owners Nemec Children's Trust, was available for questions from the Board. Mr. Dobbs reviewed an additional handout he provided to the Board which gave some basic background information on the current business. In addition, he provided a copy of the original plat indicating these subject parcels were located adjacent to the Florida East Coast Railway Yard and Grounds. He explained his client purchased the property in 2001 and did not anticipate the business would grow this big. He has looked at purchasing the 50 -foot railway right-of-way to the West of the current business but indicated this would not be enough land to expand. Besides going South, there was nothing else available as the land further to the West of the railway was already purchased by a Church. Chairperson Hoover opened the floor for public comment. Secretary Burnette relayed she had a phone conversation with Mrs. Linda Knisely who resides at 601 Southwest 4th Street. She was opposed to the requested changes. As a resident located a block within these subject parcels, she believes this is not an appropriate area for this industrial business. There are many churches and schools with a lot of children in the area. She is concerned with the amount of truck traffic and believes there is available industrial area in the city they could relocate to and expand. Vice Chairperson McCoy disclosed he had spoken to Mr. Dobbs about concerns with the property. No other disclosures were offered. Planning Staff Findings are as follows: Policy 2.2 of the FLU Element recommends that the City protect the use and value of private property from adverse impacts of incompatible land uses, activities and hazards. Objective 12 of the FLU Element states that the City of Okeechobee shall encourage compatibility with adjacent uses, and curtailment of uses inconsistent with the character and land uses of surrounding areas and shall discourage urban sprawl. From a planning perspective, expansion of the Industrial FLU in this area would be out of character and likely incompatible with the predominantly residential nature of the surrounding neighborhood. The property to the North of the subject parcels is Industrial but the remainder of the surrounding properties hold residential designations on the City's FLUM and the City's Zoning Map. While much of the directly adjacent land is vacant, there exists one single family residence and a preschool across Southwest 71h Avenue from these parcels. Other single-family residences exist nearby, and a new multi -family apartment project has been approved nearby as well. The Applicant currently owns and operates a 1.6 - acre industrial site to the North of these subject parcels, which is one of only a few properties with an I FLU designation South of Park Street in the City. Besides the Applicant's existing site, there is an additional 2.5 acres of Industrial to the North, 0.5 acres of industrially designated property on Southwest Park Street and a 3 -acre property on Southeast 10'h Street. The Applicant's requested FLUM changes represent a 37 percent increase in Industrial FLU South of Street in the City. The Applicant has provided a traffic analysis that estimates the requested change to an I FLU on these parcels would result in an increase in 1,144 potential daily vehicle trips and 166 potential peak hour vehicle trips. In addition to the consideration of total vehicle trips, it is also important to consider that an industrial use is likely to generate more heavy truck traffic than residential uses. DRAFT May 21, 2020 Regular Meeting Page 2 of 10 Should these map changes be approved and a site plan for development of these parcels were to be submitted, it would be necessary to provide additional assessment of the impact of traffic on the adjacent streets and properties at the time of site plan approval. Regarding adequacy of public facilities, the Applicant's submission includes letters from the Okeechobee Utility Authority and Waste Management indicating that there is adequate excess capacity to accommodate the demand for potable water, wastewater treatment and solid waste disposal that would be associated with a proposed industrial use. The subject property is within the zone X, indicating a minimal flood risk. The site has no significant or unique characteristics regarding environmental sensitivity, wetlands, wildlife habitat, endangered species, soil conditions or susceptibility to flooding. Based on the foregoing analysis, he finds the requested Industrial FLU Designation for the subject property to be inconsistent with the character of the neighborhood and likely incompatible with the surrounding land uses. Therefore, he finds this request inconsistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan and recommends denial. Vice Chairperson McCoy inquired as to what exactly the use would be or the parcels. Would they be used for truck parking or warehouse space? This additional property may help in alleviating the trucks parking on Southwest 7th Avenue that are waiting to be loaded or unloaded. Member Jonassaint commented there presently were concerns with egress as trucks coming out of the site hold up traffic in the area. Member Brass commented even though this business has made contributions to the community for many years, she voiced concerns with the residential neighborhood being impacted. Member Baughman commented the area is already impacted as this business has been located here for some time and feels the request should be approved. A motion was offered by Member Brass to recommend denial to the City Council for Comprehensive Plan Small Scale FLUM Amendment Application No 20 -002 -SSA, which requests to change the FLU designation from SF Residential and MF Residential to I on 2.87± acres located in the 500 to 600 blocks of Southwest 7th Avenue, and finds it to be inconsistent with the character of the neighborhood and likely incompatible with the surrounding land uses, seconded by Member Chartier. a) The board offered no further discussion. b) Chairperson Hoover, Vice Chairperson McCoy, Board Members, Brass, Chartier, Granados and Jonassaint, voted: Aye. Nays: Board Member Baughman. Motion Carried. The recommendation will be forwarded to the City Council for consideration at a Public Hearing, tentatively June 16, 2020, 6:00 P.M. PUBLIC HEARING-QUASI-JUDICAL ITEM B. City Planning Consultant Mr. Smith briefly reviewed the Planning Staff Report for Rezoning Petition No. 20-001-R, which requests to change the zoning designation from RMF to IND 2.87± acres located in the 500 to 600 blocks of Southwest 7th Avenue for the proposed use of expanding the existing industrial facility located to the North. He explained the Applicant, Loumax Development Inc, has also submitted a concurrent request to change the FLU designation from SF Residential and MF Residential to I on these parcels. The subject parcels are currently vacant. He finds the requested rezoning to IND to be inconsistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan. He has reservations regarding the compatibility with adjacent uses and does not find it consistent with the urbanizing pattern of the area. Therefore, he is recommending denial of the Applicant's rezoning request. DRAFT May 21, 2020 Regular Meeting Page 3 of 10 1. This being a quasi-judicial proceeding, Notary Public Patty Burnette administered an oath to those intending to offer testimony, all responded affirmatively, and stated their names and addresses for the record. Mr. Ben Smith, Planning Consultant, LaRue Planning and Management, 1375 Jackson Street, Suite 206, Fort Myers, Florida, and Mr. Steve Dobbs, PE, 1062 Jakes Way, Okeechobee, Florida. 2. Mr. Steve Dobbs, consultant for the Applicant, Loumax Development Inc., on behalf of the Property Owners Nemec Children's Trust, was present and available for questions from the Board. He wanted to bring to their attention should the request be denied, and his client decides to relocate elsewhere, then this property would be open to any other permitted Industrial use. 3. Chairperson Hoover opened the floor for public comment. Secretary Burnette noted for the record the Petition was advertised in the local newspaper, two signs were posted on the subject property and courtesy notices were mailed to sixteen surrounding property owners. Secretary Burnette relayed she had a phone conversation with Mrs. Linda Knisely who resides at 601 Southwest 4th Street. She was opposed to the requested changes. As a resident located a block within these subject parcels, she believes this is not an appropriate area for this industrial business. There are many churches and schools with a lot of children in the area. She is concerned with the amount of truck traffic and believes there is available industrial area in the city they could relocate to and expand. 4. Vice Chairperson McCoy disclosed he had spoken to Mr. Dobbs about concerns with the property. No other disclosures were offered. 5. Planning Staff findings are as follows: The property to the North of these parcels is Industrial but the remainder of the surrounding properties hold residential designations on the City's FLU and Zoning Maps. While much of the directly adjacent land is vacant, there exists one single family residence and a preschool across Southwest 7th Avenue from these parcels. Other single-family residences exist nearby, and a new multi -family apartment project has been approved nearby as well. The Applicant currently owns and operates a 1.6 -acre industrial site to the North of these subject parcels, which is one of only a few industrial properties South of Park Street in the City. Planner Smith is not recommending approval of the Applicant's requested FLUM Amendment because expansion of the Industrial FLU in this area would be out of character with the predominantly residential nature of the surrounding neighborhood and is therefore inconsistent with the existing pattern of development and FLU Objective 12 of the City's Comprehensive Plan. Additionally, if the City Council does not approve the Applicant's concurrent Comprehensive Plan Small Scale FLUM Amendment, then this rezoning request cannot be approved either. The proposed expansion of the current use being manufacturing of non- explosive products, is a permitted use in the IND Zoning District. Expansion of the Applicant's existing operations could have positive impacts on the public interest by bringing additional jobs to the community and increasing the tax base of the City. However, allowing the expansion of industrial zoning and industrial uses could have an adverse impact in this predominantly residential neighborhood and could have an adverse impact on investment in residential development in this area. If this rezoning is approved, it would allow for expansion of industrial uses farther into an area that is predominantly residential. Industrial is typically one of the least compatible land uses to residential. The property to the immediate North of the subject parcels is designated I on the FLUM and zoned IND with the use being the existing industrial business. The property to the East is designated SF Residential on the FLUM and zoned RMF with the use being that of a single-family home and vacant parcels. The property to the South is designated MF Residential on the FLUM and zoned RMF with the use being A Child's World Child Care and Preschool. The property to the West is designated MF Residential on the FLUM and zoned RMF with the parcels being vacant. DRAFT May 21, 2020 Regular Meeting Page 4 of 10 Plans have been submitted for future development of a residential apartment complex to be known as Emerald Greens There are currently several vacant residentially zoned properties adjacent to the subject parcels. Approval of this rezoning request could affect the likeliness of those properties to be developed and could thereby affect the value of those properties. Additional heavy truck traffic in this neighborhood could also affect the living conditions of the nearby residents. Depending on the specific activities involved, buffering can be used to alleviate some of the potential impacts of industrial uses although it will not reduce the impacts of increased heavy truck traffic in this predominantly residential neighborhood. Potential demand for schools and recreation facilities would be reduced if this rezoning is approved and potential demand for water, sewer and solid waste is likely to increase. Additional vehicle trips are also projected. However, approval of this request is not likely to create a density pattern that will overburden facilities. The proposed use will not impact traffic congestion as this is already a heavily traveled street with adequate capacity for additional traffic. Drainage issues would be considered at time of site plan review. The proposed use has not been inordinately burdened by any unnecessary restrictions. Member Chartier commented maybe this business should be located in the City's or County's Industrial Parks where it would be more appropriate, and more space would be available. A motion was offered by Member Jonassaint to recommend denial to the City Council for Rezoning Petition No. 20-001-R, which requests to change the zoning designation from RMF to IND on 2.87± acres located in the 500 to 600 blocks of Southwest 7th Avenue for the proposed use of expanding the existing industrial facility located to the North, seconded by Member Granados. a) The board offered no further discussion. b) Chairperson Hoover, Vice Chairperson McCoy, Board Members, Brass, Chartier, Granados and Jonassaint, voted: Aye. Nays: Board Member Baughman. Motion Carried. The recommendation will be forwarded to the City Council for consideration at a Public Hearing, tentatively July 7, 2020, 6:00 P.M. C. City Planning Consultant Mr. Smith briefly reviewed the Planning Staff Report for Rezoning Petition N No. 20-002-R, from RMF to Central Business District (CBD) for Lots 2 through 4 of Block 171, CITY OF OKEECHOBEE, Plat Books 1 and 5, Pages 10 and 5, Public Records, Okeechobee County, on 0.50± acres located at 204 Southeast Park Street for the proposed use of a medical office. He explained the Applicant, Mr. Dillon Moore on behalf of the Property Owner, Best Value Real Estate LLC, is requesting this change in order for the business located on the parcels to continue operations as a medical practice. The property was purchased from Dr. Stanley Sweda, who was retiring, in August of 2019. That medical office had been in practice for approximately 30 years. The parcel located on the corner of Southeast 2nd Avenue and Southeast Park Street is currently vacant. He finds the requested rezoning to CBD to be consistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan, reasonably compatible with adjacent uses, and consistent with the urbanizing pattern of the area. Therefore, he is recommending approval of the Applicant's rezoning request. 1. This being a quasi-judicial proceeding, Notary Public Patty Burnette administered an oath to those intending to offer testimony, all responded affirmatively, and stated their names and addresses for the record. Mr. Ben Smith, Planning Consultant, LaRue Planning and Management, 1375 Jackson Street, Suite 206, Fort Myers, Florida. Mr. Moore was available by Zoom.com for questions from the Board. There were none. DRAFT May 21, 2020 Regular Meeting Page 5 of 10 Chairperson Hoover opened the floor for public comment. Secretary Burnette noted for the record the Petition was advertised in the local newspaper, two signs were posted on the subject property and courtesy notices were mailed to fourteen surrounding property owners. 4. No disclosures of Ex -Parte were offered. Planning Staff findings are as follows: The current zoning of RMF is not appropriate for the Commercial FLU designation. However, Policy 2.2 of the FLU element specifically lists the CBD Zoning district as appropriate in the Commercial FLU. Medical office is specifically listed as a permitted use in the CBD Zoning District. The proposed use has been providing medical services to the community for many years and does not have an adverse impact on the public interest. The subject property is separated one block from East North Park Street (State Road 70 East), a municipal park area and is within the business area of downtown Okeechobee. The property to the immediate North of the subject parcels is designated Public Facilities on the FLUM and zoned Public Facilities with the use being that of a park. The property to the East is designated Commercial on the FLUM and zoned CBD with the use being that of the Visiting Nurse Association. The property to the South is designated Commercial on the FLUM and zoned Commercial Professional Office (CPO) with the use being The Grand Oaks Assisted Living Facility. The property to the West is designated Commercial on the FLUM and zoned CBD and Light Commercial (CLT) with the parcels being occupied by a retail strip center. No adverse effects are expected with the continued medical office use. The proposed medical use should not cause any nuisances or hazards that would require buffering from the adjacent land uses. The applicant is not proposing any changes in the current use that would increase demand for public utilities or public safety. The proposed use has not been inordinately burdened by unnecessary restrictions. A motion was offered by Member Chartier to recommend approval to the City Council for Rezoning Petition N No. 20-002-R, from RMF to CBD for Lots 2 through 4 of Block 171, CITY OF OKEECHOBEE, Plat Books 1 and 5, Pages 10 and 5, Public Records, Okeechobee County, on 0.50± acres located at 204 Southeast Park Street for the proposed use of a medical office, seconded by Member Baughman. a) The board offered no further discussion. b) Chairperson Hoover, Vice Chairperson McCoy, Board Members, Baughman, Brass, Chartier, Granados and Jonassaint, voted: Aye. Nays: None. Motion Carried. The recommendation will be forwarded to the City Council for consideration ata Public Hearing, tentatively July 7, 2020, 6:00 P.M. D. Planning Consultant Mr. Smith briefly reviewed the Planning Staff Report for Special Exception Petition No. 20 -002 -SE, which requests to allow a convenience store with fuel pumps within a Heavy Commercial (CHV) Zoning District, (Ref. Sec. 90-282(25)) on 18.86± unplatted acres, located in the 900 to 1000 block along East North Park Street/State Road 70 East. The subject property is located on the north side of State Road 70 (SR70) East across from Zaxby's, Family Dollar and the United States Post Office. The Applicant is currently under contract to purchase the vacant parcel from the current property owner, 1-12oldings LLC. In addition to this Special Exception Application, the Applicant has submitted a Site Plan Application No. 20 -003 -TRC, which depicts development of the Southwest 6.63 acres of the parcel with a new RaceTrac gas station and convenience store, including a 5,411 square foot retail building with two canopies, providing an extended diesel fueling area and parking area designed to accommodate larger trucks. DRAFT May 21, 2020 Regular Meeting Page 6 of 10 He recommends approval of the Special Exception for a new RaceTrac Gas Station and Convenience Store with the request that the Board of Adjustment consider whether or not a buffer wall should be provided along the Western and Northern property lines in areas where existing adjacent residents may experience increased truck noise generated by this development. Otherwise, based on the foregoing analysis, the requested Special Exception is consistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan, reasonably compatible with adjacent uses, and consistent with the urbanizing pattern of the area. This being a quasi-judicial proceeding, Notary Public Patty Burnette administered an oath to those intending to offer testimony, all responded affirmatively, and stated their names and addresses for the record.

Samantha Jones, Engineering Project Manager and Cleo Chang, Engineering Project Analyst both for RaceTrac Petroleum Inc, were attending the meeting via Zoom. 3. Chairperson Hoover opened the floor for public comment. Mr. Jack Dickerhoof, 212 Northeast 8th Avenue, commented he is not against development of the property, just has concerns. He enjoys the area and all of the animals. The drainage swale is the only thing that divides the properties now. He has concerns with the potential noise and what the remainder of the property will be used for. Secretary Burnette noted for the record the Petition was advertised in the local newspaper, two signs were posted on the subject property and courtesy notices were mailed to fifty- seven surrounding property owners. Secretary Burnette received a letter and an email before the meeting which were read into the record. Pedie Dickerhoof, 212 Northeast 8th Avenue, Mr. Terrell Mastaler, 401 Northeast 8th Avenue, Mr. Robert Shannon 200 Northeast 8th Avenue, Mr. Jose Urdaneta, 210 Northeast 8th Avenue, Mr. Richard Verrochi and Ms. Rebecca Mully, 209 Northeast 8th Avenue: "Dear Ms. Burnette, As a homeowner in River Run Resort, I would like to express that I am adamantly against the Special Exception Petition No. 20 -002 -SE to allow building a "convenience store with fuel pumps". This proposal would place the new 24-hour RaceTrac Gas Station & Convenience Store with 21 pumps, directly behind our quiet neighborhood. As stated by the Applicant, they are also placing 5 extra pumps for extended diesel offering for large trucks. The first comment from our neighbors when they hear this is "a truck stop?", no way!" We the residents bought our homes here specifically because it was peaceful. As mentioned by the applicant, the introduction of unnecessary crime brought to the area by these types of businesses, is not very appealing. Our main concerns are (in part) as follows: majorly increased noise levels at all hours, increased pollution due to idling diesel vehicles, bright lights all night, disturbed eco system that provides homes to many animal species including gopher tortoises, indigo and painted bunting migratory birds, and grazing white tail deer and obviously, the plummeting property values. There is no reasonable way to mitigate the 24-hour noise and bright lights at night. The addition of trees, shrubs, and other vegetation looks beautiful, but cannot stop the heavy industrial noise coming from such a business. I believe the Future Land Use Map also calls for Commercial Use, not Heavy Commercial Use. The Applicant is buying over 18 acres of land, but their utilization is only proposed for over 6 acres. What other Heavy Commercial businesses will then be permitted for the balance of this property?". DRAFT May 21, 2020 Regular Meeting Page 7 of 10 Mr. Chris Luckey: My wife and I are full time residents of Okeechobee and live at 107 Northeast 8th Avenue. Our home faces directly down Northeast 31d Street, in the direction of the proposed 24 hr. RaceTrac gas station/truck stop/convenience store. I am strongly in opposition to this petition and construction for the following reasons: increased noise levels to our residential neighborhood River Run Resort, the nighttime lights that will shine directly into our bedroom windows, the potential for increased crime that can easily filter into our neighborhood with the 24 hr. hours of operation and no wall structure to prevent, the pollution caused by multiple large idling diesel semi -trucks, the decline in property values that will result due to our peaceful neighborhood now being bordered by a truck stop/gas station. My request would be that this petition be denied for the above reasons. If the petition is granted, I strongly request that the City require RaceTrac to erect a solid wall between their entire parcel and our River Run Resort neighborhood. The wall should be high enough to block any noise, pollution from the idling diesel semi -trucks and the site lighting, to keep it from bleeding into our neighborhood. A landscaped area would NOT be sufficient to separate such an invasive business, with 24 hr. service, from our once peaceful neighborhood. Has a hearing date and time been scheduled, and if so, is there a way for residents to attend?". 4. Vice Chairperson McCoy disclosed he had spoken to the Manager of the RaceTrac store currently located at 1596 State Road 70 East in Okeechobee Florida. No other disclosures were offered. 5. Planning Staffs responses to the Applicant's presentation on consistency with the Land Development Regulations (LDR's) are, the location and site are appropriate for the proposed use. The site fronts East North Park Street/SR70 East which will provide access to fuel and convenience goods along a heavily traveled roadway. The property to the immediate North of the subject parcel is designated SF Residential on the FLUM and zoned Residential Mobile Home (RMH) with the use being that of the River Run Resort Mobile Home Park. The property to the East is designated C on the FLUM and zoned CHV with the parcels being vacant. The property to the South is designated C on the FLUM and zoned CHV with the uses being a Zaxby's restaurant, a Family Dollar Store and the United States Post Office. The property to the West is designated SF Residential on the FLUM and zoned Residential Single Family One with the use being that of a manufactured home sales center. The site is of sufficient size to allow adequate interior circulation and buffering of the adjacent residences. Even though the Applicant is proposing to only construct the RaceTrac gas station and convenience store on 6.63 acres located in the Southwest corner of the parcel, the Special Exception approval is being requested for the entire 18.86 acres. The remaining acres will stay vacant until sometime in the future. The CHV Zoning District specifically identifies convenience store with a fueling station as a Special Exception Use. The main compatibility concern for this use is the existing residential neighborhood to the West and North. However, the Applicant has submitted a site plan which depicts an ample landscape buffer proposed on the West side. The proposed landscape buffer exceeds the minimum landscape buffer requirements provided in the City's LDR's. The Applicant's description of the proposed landscaping is consistent with the submitted site plan. The proposed Walter's Viburnum hedge would be the main buffer between the adjacent residences to the West and is known for growing into tall hedges up to 15 feet tall. Gas stations with convenience stores often get associated with crime and loitering. The Applicant is aware of these issues and have devoted special attention to providing actual security measures throughout the site design. The idea is to create an environment where customer activity and open concept will deter crime through natural surveillance. In addition to natural surveillance techniques present throughout the site, RaceTrac is equipped with a 24-hour surveillance system both inside and outside of their stores. DRAFT May 21, 2020 Regular Meeting Page 8 of 10 Utility services are expected to be fully available and the adequacy and specifics of these facilities will be addressed during the site plan review stage. The site has been designed to provide 16 fuel positions offering regular unleaded, ethanol free, and diesel fuel as well as five fuel positions designated for larger trucks. This will separate the larger diesel vehicles from circulating with the everyday consumers. Diesel is also offered in the standard fuel pumps so that light/medium trucks may still fuel in this area without the need to go to the diesel canopy. Wider drive aisles are also being provided for better circulation. The Applicant is currently working with Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) to see what off-site improvements will be required to provide a signalized left turn lane for the East bound travelers along SR70. Planning Staffs responses to the Applicant's presentation on the required findings are, the property is designated on the FLUM and the proposed use is not contrary to the Comprehensive Plan. Convenience store with fuel pumps is included under the list of Special Exceptions Uses in the CHV Zoning District. The proposed use will not have an adverse effect on the public interest. It is possible that allowing the Applicant to develop this requested proposed use will not deter, but instead, encourage development of the vacant property to the East. Conversely, it is possible that property values and living conditions for the nearby residences could be affected, as additional noise is likely to be generated by the proposed use operating 24 hours per day. The large truck fueling, and parking area is located adjacent to these existing residences. The Applicant is proposing a landscape buffer that should minimize these potential effects. This non-residential development will not impact the public -school adopted levels of service and there is sufficient utility capacity to accommodate the proposed development. A traffic impact statement has been provided which concludes that roadway and traffic signal modifications will be necessary to accommodate the increase in vehicle trips generated by this project. Drainage improvements, including a water retention area at the rear of the project, are included in the site plan. Public safety should not be affected by this project. A motion was offered by Member Brass to approve Special Exception Petition No. 20 -002 -SE, which requests to allow a convenience store with fuel pumps within a CHV Zoning District, (Ref. Sec. 90-282(25)) on 18.86± unplatted acres, located in the 900 to 1000 block along East North Park Street/SR70 East with the following conditions: minimum of an eight foot wall along the West boundary line beginning at the start of the River Run Resort Mobile Home Park, seconded by Member McCoy. a) The board further reviewed and after a lengthy discussion decided to vote on this motion and then make changes in a new motion. b) Vice Chairperson McCoy, Board Members, Brass and Jonassaint voted: Aye. Nays: Chairperson Hoover, Board Members, Baughman, Chartier, and Granados. Motion Failed. A motion was offered by Member Chartier to approve Special Exception Petition No. 20 -002 -SE, which requests to allow a convenience store with fuel pumps within a CHV Zoning District, (Ref.

He stated recently the vacant portion of Block 39 contiguous to the subject rights-of-way was approved for a Future Land Use Map Amendment (FLUM) to Multi - Family Residential and a Rezoning change to Residential Multiple Family (RMF). If this request is approved, the Applicant intends to join the vacant portion of Block 28 to the North and construct a multifamily residential project. July 16, 2020 Planning Board Regular Meeting Page 1 of 3 V. PUBLIC HEARING ITEM CONTINUED With those recent FLUM and Zoning approvals and the property to the North being designated as Multi -Family Residential on the FLUM and RMF on the zoning map, it seems appropriate to place the same designation on the vacated property. This designation is also necessary if the Applicant is to complete the stated goal of developing a multi -family residential project at this site Planning Staff's responses to the required findings are. The alleyway is not the sole means of access to any property. The property owner of the parcel to the North of the Northwest 10th Street right-of-way, Fosler LLC, has provided consent and the Applicant owns the Southern half. The proposed right-of-way areas to be vacated have not been improved to facilitate vehicular travel. Turning over maintenance responsibility to the Applicant and adding property to the City's tax rolls will be a benefit to the City. Finally, the Applicant has received authorization from all necessary utility entities. Planning Staff is recommending approval based on these findings. 1. The Applicant provided signed authorizations from all necessary utility entities.

City Planning Consultant Mr. Smith briefly reviewed the Staff Report for the Workshop regarding Rezoning of Holding Properties. The City's future land use map and zoning map have several types of map conflicts that exist. Properties with zoning designations ' are inconsistent with future land use designation. Properties with existing land uses are o� inconsistent with map designations. Lastly properties zoned Holding. The Workshop is to discuss city -initiated rezoning of properties currently zoned Holding. Several years ago, the Holding district regulations were removed from the land development code.

Specifically, the Petitioner should provide in his/her application and presentation sufficient explanation and documentation to convince the reviewing body to find that: 1. Proposed vacation is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan:' The requested road ROW and alley are currently not used for access or utilities, there is no mention of alleys in the City's Comprehensive plan, the LDR's mention alleys in Section 86-142, which states alley may be allowed in residential districts, also in Section 70-335, which states notice of abandonment required, otherwise they are other referenced, but not concerning vacancies. 11 2. Right-of-way to be vacated is not the sole access to anv property, and the remaining II access is not an easement: Neither ROW or alley is sole access to any property and a remaining land will not require an easement. 3. Proposed vacation is in the public interest and provides a benefit to the Citv: �I The proposed vacation of the ROW and alley is within a block that will become a multifamily project to provide workforce housing, which the City is in need of, so this vacation will allow the existing ROW and alley's square footage to add density to this project so more housing can be added and return the property to the tax rolls. 4. Proposed vacation would not jeopardize the location of any utility. There are currently no utilities in either of the requested abandonments. The City Staff will, in the Staff Report, address the request and evaluate it and the Petitioner's submission in light of the above criteria and offer a recommendation for approval or denial).

KR 4 planning Staff Report ROW Abandonment / Street Vacation 1consistency with Sec. 78-33, Vacation of Rights -of -Way Applicant: Omar Abuaita Petition No. 20 -001 -AC -SC Sec. 78.33 states that applications to vacate an alley or public right-of-way may be approved upon a finding by the City Council that the following requirements have been met. The Applicant's responses are provided in Times Roman typeface and are repeated below exactly as provided by the Applicant. Staff has made no attempt to correct typos, grammar, or clarify the Applicant's comments. Staff Comments are in Arial typeface. 1. Proposed vacation is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. Applicant Comment: "The requested road ROW and alley are currently not used for access or utilities, there is no mention of alleys in the City's Comprehensive Plan, the LDR's mention alleys in Section 86-142, which states alley may be allowed in residential districts, also in Section 70- 335, which states notice of abandonment required, otherwise they are other referenced, but not concerning vacancies." Staff Comment: There is nothing in the City's Comprehensive Plan concerning abandonments or vacations of rights-of-way. 2. Right-of-way to be vacated is not the sole access to any property, and the remaining access is not an easement Applicant Comment: "Neither ROW or alley is sole access to any property and a remaining land will not require an easement." Staff Comment: Access will not be affected for any properties. Additionally, the property owner of the parcel on the north of the 10th St ROW has provided a notarized form of consent to the Applicant's request. The Applicant has provided a diagram depicting how the 10th St ROW would be divided, with the northern half going to Fosler LLC and the southern half going to Omar Abuaita, the Applicant. This arrangement makes sense as these are the only contiguous properties (NW 51 Ave lies to east of these properties and an alley separates these properties from the parcel to the west). 3. Proposed vacation is in the public interest and provides a benefit to the City. Applicant Comment: "The proposed vacation of ROW and alley is within a block that will become a multifamily project to provide workforce housing, which the City is in need of, so this vacation will allow the existing ROW and alley's square footage to add density to this project so more housing can be added and return the property to the tax rolls." Staff Comment: The proposed right-of-way area to be vacated has not been improved to facilitate vehicular traffic. Turning over maintenance responsibility to the Applicant and adding this property to the City tax rolls will be a benefit to the City. If the property is developed according to the Applicant's stated plans, additional taxes will be collected by the City. planning Staff Report ROW Abandonment / Street Vacation Applicant: Omar Abuaita Petition No. 20 -001 -AC -SC 4. Proposed vacation would not jeopardize the location of any utility. Applicant Comment: "There are currently no utilities in either of the requested abandonments." Staff Comment: The Applicant has provided signed authorizations from all necessary utility entities including: • Florida Power & Light • Century Link (with the condition that the Applicant will bear the cost of relocation and repair of any facilities that are found and/or damaged in the vacated areas) • Comcast • Okeechobee Utility Authority • Florida Public Utilities Recommendation Based on the foregoing information and analysis, we believe, from a planning perspec- tive, that the requested alley vacation/abandonment can be considered consistent with the requirements of Sec. 78-33. Staff recommends approval of this request. Submitted by: Benjamin L.

DRAFT May 21, 2020 Official Agenda Page 1 of 8 V. NEW BUSINESS A. City Planning Consultant Ben Smith of LaRue Planning and Management Services briefly reviewed the Planning Staff Report for Site Plan Review Application No. 20 -003 -TRC, which pertains to the construction of a proposed 5,411 square foot RaceTrac convenience store, with vehicle fueling positions on 18.86 ± unplatted acres located in the 900 to 1000 block along East North Park Street/State Road 70 (SR 70) East. The subject site is a vacant parcel located on the North side of SR 70 just East of Northeast 8th Avenue and across from Southeast 10th Avenue. Even though the subject parcel is 18.86 acres, only 6.63 acres located in the Southwest corner of the parcel are being proposed for the development. The Applicant, RaceTrac Petroleum Inc., has not offered at this time any plans for the remaining 12.23 acres. Besides the convenience store, the proposed development includes a canopy to the South side of the store covering 16 standard vehicle fueling stations, a canopy to the North side covering four large truck fueling stations, 30 standard vehicle parking spaces adjacent to the South and East side of the store, two ADA parking spaces, and at the rear of the development on the North side, 23 large truck parking spaces and a water retention area. In addition, he mentioned receiving revised plans from the Applicant due to his preliminary comments. The plans showed an additional landscape island providing some separation between the truck parking area in the rear, additional trees on the East side of the site, and revised photometric plans showing less lights casting on the residents to the West. The Applicant has submitted a concurrent Special Exception request for approval of a convenience store with fueling pumps in the Heavy Commercial (CHV) Zoning District, which is scheduled to be heard at this evening's Planning Board/Board of Adjustment Meeting. The Applicant stated a 12 -inch potable water main and an eight -inch gravity sewer main exist along .;R 70, and both can be tapped into for this project. The potential increase in demand for the project is small and should have no effect upon the available capacities of OUA's potable and wastewater treatment facilities. Regarding solid waste disposal, service will be provided by Waste Management, which has stated service is available and adequate capacity exists in the County's solid waste facility to serve the proposed development. Thomas Engineering Group has prepared a site drainage report addressing drainage, water quality, and water quantity, which are being handled through the permitting requirements of the South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD). The traffic impact analysis performed by MacKenzie Engineering & Planning, Inc., estimates this proposed development will generate 1,038 daily external vehicle trips, 73 daily external vehicle trips during the AM and PM Peak hour, 4,719 daily driveway vehicle trips and 330 daily driveway vehicle trips during the AM and PM peak hour. Two new access driveways are proposed on SR70. The proposed driveway at the intersection of SR70 and Southeast 10th Avenue will allow for ingress and egress to and from both dirE�ctions of SR70 and for vehicles Northbound on Southeast 10th Avenue. The other driveway will allow ingress and egress only for vehicles traveling Westbound on SR70. Interior circulation appears to be adequate with all drive aisles exceeding the minimum code requirements. The Applicant has furnished a truck circulation plan, which illustrates the path of the truck entering and exiting the site for refueling of the fuel storage tanks or accessing the loading space. DRAFT May 21, 2020 Official Agenda Page 2 of 8 The proposed loading zone meets all minimum dimensional requirements and is located adjacent to the dumpster enclosure in order to facilitate solid waste removal. The dimensional standards review appears to meet the requirements except for no depiction of monument sign area or height. The Applicant has stated a Variance application will be submitted. In conclusion, Planning Staff is recommending approval of the site plan with the following stipulations: The traffic impact analysis was conducted based on there being four large truck fueling stations and the Applicant has maintained that there will only be four large truck fueling stations. However, some of the plans are showing what appears to be five large truck fueling stations. This error should be corrected on the plans; consider providing a buffer wall between adjacent residential properties; and approval of Special Exception submitted for convenience store with fuel pumps in CHV Zoning District. 1. Building Official Newell noted an error referencing Northwest 2nd Avenue in the traffic report for the proposed project. He stated he had concerns with Westbound traffic on SR70 that may backup trying to enter the site at the Southeast 10th Street traffic light. He suggested maybe a possible right-hand turning lane for this intersection. He inquired as to whether there would be overnight parking as semi -trucks stay idling and there would be an increased smell of diesel fumes. In addition, he voiced concerns with the possible noise that would impact the residential area to the West of the proposed site and how that would be buffered. Fire Chief Smith commented accessibility for the fire trucks had basically been built into the plans because of the semi -truck usage. He would like the fire lanes marked on both East and West sides so there will be no obstructions for the fire trucks to enter and exit the site. He commented the nearest hydrant is located too far away so one would be needed at the entrance on the West side of the East driveway. Director Hayford confirmed there is a watermain on the Southside of Southeast 10th Avenue. Major Hagan commented some type of barrier wall needs to be considered as the Police Department will probably receive noise complaints. He inquired as to whether the Applicant was considering a turning lane for Eastbound traffic on SR70. Public Works Director Allen commented a left turn lane would be required at the Southeast 10th Street intersection heading East on SR70. Regarding the traffic signal replacement, mask arms would be required. All signage needs to be high intensity prismatic. The stop signs at the West side exit back onto SR70 needs to be 36 x 36. A dead-end sign will be needed at the East side of the property near the entrance. Also, at the North end of the developed property on the East side, install three OM4-1 signs to warn pedestrians that they cannot proceed further. He would like signage for a no U-turn at the Southeast 10th Avenue intersection. DRAFT May 21, 2020 Official Agenda Page 3 of 8 Public Works Director Allen commented a left turn IanE: would be required at the Southeast 10th Street intersection heading Easton SR70. Regarding the traffic signal replacement, mask arms would be required. All signage needs to be high intensity prismatic. The stop signs at the West side exit back onto SR70 needs to be 36 x 36. A dead-end sign will be needed at the East side of the property near the entrance. Also, at the North end of the developed property on the East side, install three 0M4-1 signs to warn pedestrians that they cannot proceed further. He would like signage for a no U-turn at the Southeast 10th Avenue intersection. Chairperson Montes De Oca recommended a 100 -foot Cul-de-sac instead of dead-end signage at the back of where the proposed development would end. Need to Install a draft hydrant located back by the retention pond. Agrees that some type of wall is needed for sound abatement. He also inquired as to whether the easement boarding the Eastern boundary of the parcel across from Southeast 10th Avenue would be a private road or public. He mentioned more as advisory that he was not a fan of open cell High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) pipe being used under heavy truck isles. Will need copy of FDOT permit when received. He mentioned the no U-turn at Southeast 10th Avenue stating he doesn't think it is as high priority because if FDOT approves a left-hand turn lane, traffic will be out of the travel lane which will help alleviate backups. OUA Director Hayford inquired as to why the Applicant was proposing to install a larger meter for water flow than was needed. If this is what they are wanting, please provide something in writing explaining their reasons. He further mentioned OUA would set the irrigation metff not the contractor and then they would just tie into it. Commented that the fuel lines are close to the water lines. He would need to review the plumbing for the floor plans. County Environmental Health Dept: No issues were received. 2. Mr. Kevin Betancourt, PE, with Thomas Engineering Group, Consultant for the Applicant, RaceTrac Petroleum Inc., on behalf of the Property Owner, H2oldings LLC, was present for questions as well as Samantha Jones, Engineering Project Manager, and Cleo Chang, Engineering Project Analyst, for RaceTrac Petroleum Inc., being present via Zoom.com. He stated the Cul-de-sac may not be something RaceTrac can provide right now as the reasoning for the dead end was because they did not know what would become of the rest of the property. DRAFT May 21, 2020 Official Agenda Page 4 of 8 A dead end would make it easier to continue development to the North in the future. After discussing this, it was decided to do a dead end and have it in line with the Eastern most truck parking space continuing East in line with that parking area and the landscape island. The traffic engineer is working on the signalization plans to be submitted to the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) for a left turning lane. Copies will be provided to the City for review. Regarding the access road on the East side of the property, Mr. Betancourt responded it will be private. It will be a shared access road for any future development. Regarding Chief Smith's comments about fire lane striping, he asked if they could do no parking signs instead. Chief Smith agreed with this. There will be no overnight parking or washing of trucks. The hydrant was discussed that is needed on the West side of the East driveway. Mr. Betancourt commented if they could move it a little further North that would work better as the mask arm needed to be installed on the West side of the East driveway. Chief Smith agreed. He would reach out to the traffic engineer to make the corrections in the traffic report that were mentioned as Northwest 2nd Avenue. Ms. Jones commented they would be more than happy to add onto the wall on the West side. 3. Chairperson Montes De Oca asked whether there were any comments or questions from those in attendance from the Public. There were none. 4. Public Works Director Allen disclosed he had spoken to Shaun MacKenzie, PE, with MacKenzie Engineering and Planning, Inc., regarding the traffic analysis. There were no other disclosures offered. 5. A motion was offered by Public Works Director Allen to approve Site Plan Review Application No. 20 -003 -TRC, which pertains to the construction of a proposed 5,411 square foot RaceTrac convenience store, with vehicle fueling positions on 18.86 ± unplatted acres located in the 900 to 1000 block along East North Park Street SR70 East with the following contingencies; revision of plans showing there to only be four large truck fueling stations instead of five, with the Northern most one being with eliminated; placing a sound barrier wall on West side of the site; add landscape buffering to North; modification of the end of private access road and install three OM4-1 signs to warn pedestrians that they cannot proceed further; addition and shifting of hydrant to the West side of the Eastern most driveway; add draft (dry) hydrant back by retention pond; clarification of error discussed in traffic report; signage for no overnight parking; approval from FDOT with copy of permit submitted to the City; approval by the Board of Adjustment (BOA) for the Special Exception use of convenience store with fuel pumps; approval by the BOA of Variance for signage before building permit can be issued; add fire lanes no parking signage; plans for plumbing to be submitted to the OUA; approval by Health Department for the fuel tank installation; seconded by Fire Chief Smith. DRAFT May 21, 2020 Official Agenda Page 5 of 8 a) The Committee offered no further discussion. b) Chairperson Montes De Oca, Public Works Director Allen, Building Official Newell, Major Hagan, and Fire Chief Smith voted: Aye.

City Planning Consultant Smith briefly reviewed the Planning Staff Report for Site Plan Review No. 20 -004 -TRC, which pertains to the construction of a proposed 4,750 square foot building contractor office with parking and drainage on 1.6 vacant acres located in the 500 to 600 blocks of Northwest 7r" Street, Lots 11 to 20 of Block 62, CITY OF OKEECHOBEE, as recorded in Plat Books 1 and 5, Pages 10 and 5, Public Records of Okeechobee County. The subject property was recently approved under Application No. 20 -003 -SSA for a Comprehensive Plan Small Scale Future Land Use Map (FLUM) Amendment to change the Future Land Use from Single Family Residential to Industrial. The property is currently zoned Industrial. The Applicant is proposing to construct a building containing a 1,400 square foot contractor office, a 2,227 square foot warehouse and a 1,080 square foot covered area. Parking and water management areas are also included. Potable water will be provided by the OUA, the 3,627 square feet of building floor area indicates a demand of about 544 gallons of water per day. The potential increase in demand for the project is relatively small and should have no effect upon the available capacities of OUA's potable and wastewater treatment facilities. Regarding solid waste disposal, service will be provided by Waste Management, which has stated service is available and adequate capacity exists in the County's solid waste facility to serve the proposed development. Mr. Steven L. Dobbs Engineering, LLC, has prepared a site drainage report addressing drainage, water quality, and water quantity, which are being handled through the permitting requirements of the South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD). The Applicant submitted a traffic impact statement which estimates this proposed development is expected to generatE) 33 daily total daily trips, with five of those trips being during the PM peak hour. The plans indicate that asphalt will be added to extend Northwest 6t" Avenue an additional 320 feet North from the intersection of Northwest 6th Avenue and 7t" Street. Three ingress/egress locations are proposed along that right-of-way on Northwest 6th Avenue; one for the standard vehicle parking area, one in front of the warehouse and one leading to a crushed shell yard adjacent to the covered area. Interior circulation appears to be adequate. No designated loading space is required, and no dumpster enclosure is depicted on the plans. The dimensional standards review appears to meet the requirements except for no landscaping between the buildings and vehicular use areas; no landscape indicated for the remainder of the parking area; not enough trees and shrubs provided in the landscape buffer areas; no indication of species of plantings or tree size indicated; and no sidewalks provided. However, there are no existing sidewalks along Northwest 7t" Street in the vicinity of this property. DRAFT May 21, 2020 Official Agenda Page 6 of 8 In conclusion, Planning Staff is recommending approval of the site plan with the following stipulations: it is recommended the Applicant submit a landscape plan which meets the requirements of the City's Land Development Regulations Chapter 90, Article IV, Division 4, which addresses the deficiencies outlined above prior to issuance of a building permit. 1. Building Official Newell inquired about the activity of the shop, what inventory will be stored there and if the inventory is flammable. Lastly, he commented more landscaping is needed. Fire Chief Smith requested an inventory of what will be stored in the building. He inquired as to the location of the hydrant. Major Hagan: No issues were received. Public Works Director Allen requested dead end signage to be placed at the end of the Northwest 6th Avenue; the 36 -inch culvert under Northwest 7th Street needs to be replaced and he would prefer galvanized pipe to not be used. All signage is to be high intensity prismatic. Chairperson Montes De Oca commented the site needs to be landscape even though currently nothing is developed. Fence needs to have green or black mesh covering it. Add 40 or 50 linear feet of double yellow striping at the stop bar of Northwest 6th Avenue and six-foot yellow skip stripe down the remainder of the road. Add a four to five-foot sod strip between shell parking area and the swale on the North side of the project. Upgrade paving in the rear of the building. OUA Director Hayford commented that the Applicant will need to install the water main for the fire hydrant and he suggests having the water service come down the West side of Northwest 6th Avenue to the front of the building. County Environmental Health Department Director Faconti inquired as to whether this project would be using a septic tank or sanitary sewer. If septic, since this is an Industrial site, will need to be covered by an annual operating agreement. 2. Mr. Steve Dobbs, Project Manager on behalf of the Property Owner, Mitchell G. Hancock, Inc, was present for questions. The garage area will be enclosed with a lean-to in the back. He stated the building will be used for parking the construction equipment inside and for minor repairs. He also stated that the Property Owner was offering to give the City money to build a sidewalk instead of him doing it himself. It was decided the Property Owner would construct the sidewalk on the South side of Northwest 7th Street. When referring to landscaping he stated he is confident the Property Owner will do more than what is required. DRAFT May 21, 2020 Official Agenda Page 7 of 8 ►�Il 3. Chairperson Montes De Oca asked whether there were any comments or questions from those in attendance from the Public and there were none. 4. Chairperson Montes De Oca disclosed he had spoken to Mr. Dobbs. 5. A motion was offered by Fire Chief Smith to approve Site Plan Review Application No. 20 -004 -TRC, construction of a proposed 4,750 square foot building contractor office with parking and drainage on 1.6 vacant acres located in the 500 to 600 Blocks of Northwest 7th Street, Lots 11 to 20 of Block 62, CITY OF OKEECHOBEE, as recorded in Plat Books 1 and 5, Pages 10 and 5 with the following contingencies; revise landscaping plan to meet the City's LDR's for location and buffering; sidewalk needs to be constructed on the South side of Northwest 7th Street; provide an inventory list of what will be stored in the building with the building permit submittal; place end of road markers, (high intensity prismatic signage) at the North end of Northwest 6th Avenue; replace the culvert under the crossing from Northwest 7th Street to 6th Avenue; upgrade paving in the rear of the building; add 40 or 50 linear feet of yellow striping at the stop bar of Northwest 6th Avenue and six foot yellow skip stripe down the remainder of the road; add a four or five foot sod strip between shell parking area and swale on the North side of the property; add green or black screening to fence; move the water service to the West side of Northwest 6th Avenue; given this is an industrial site, the septic tank will need to be covered by an annual operating agreement and additional pretreatment to the dry detention area needs to be added; seconded by Public Works Director Allen. a) The Committee offered no further discussion. b) Chairperson Montes De Oca, Public Works Director Allen, Building Official Newell, Major Hagan, and Fire Chief Smith voted: Aye. Nays: none. Motion Carried. There being no further items on the agenda, Chairperson Montes De Oca adjourned the meeting at 11:25 A.M. Please take note and be advised that any person desiring to appeal any decision made by the Technical Review Committee with respect to any matter considered at this proceeding, such interested person will need a record of the proceedings, and for such purpose may need to ensure a verbatim record of the proceedings is made, which record includes the testimony and evidence upon which the appeal is to be based. General Service's media are for the sole purpose of backup for official records of the Department. Marcos Montes De Oca, Chairperson ATTEST: Patty M. Burnette, USecretary DRAFT May 21, 2020 Official Agenda Page 8 of 8 i Staff Report To: Okeechobee Planning Board From: Ben Smith, AICP Meeting Date: July 16, 2020 Subject: Workshop - Rezoning of Holding Properties Correcting map conflicts is a subject that has long been discussed by the City Council and the Planning Board. Regarding the City's future land use map and zoning map, there are several types of map conflicts that exist: • Properties with zoning designations that are inconsistent with the future land use designation • Properties with existing land uses that are inconsistent with map designations. • Properties zoned Holding. The purpose of this workshop is to discuss city -initiated rezoning of properties currently zoned Holding. At one time, the City's land development code contained regulations for the development of properties zoned Holding. However, several years ago, the Holding district regulations were removed from the land development code. At that time, it was intended that most properties zoned Holding would be rezoned to one of the single family residential zoning districts or to the Rural Heritage district. The Rural Heritage district was conceived in order to provide an appropriate zoning district for Holding properties that would continue to be used for agricultural purposes. The City's Comprehensive Plan was also amended at that time to allow limited agriculture in the appropriate future land use categories to address existing lands in the City where agricultural activities have been and continue to be active. Since there are no longer any Holding district regulations provided in the code that would regulate development of properties zoned Holding, the Holding designation is no longer supported by the City's land development code. At this time, if any property owner of land zoned Holding is seeking to develop that property, a rezoning must be performed first. As such, staff received direction from the Planning Board to proceed with recommendations for City initiated rezoning of the Holding properties. This report provides information for each Holding property and recommendations for map changes for most of those properties. There are currently 55 parcels of land within the City that are zoned Holding. A few of these parcels are developed, though most are undeveloped or used for agricultural purposes. Most of the Holding properties are designated as Single Family Residential on the Future Land Use Map, though there are two with Commercial designations and one with Mixed Use Residential. For ease of viewing, eight separate areas of the City are depicted on sub maps of the future land use map and the zoning map. Properties within those sub map areas are labeled with Map ID Numbers. Parcels of land that are contiguous, under the same ownership, and contain the same existing land use are grouped together under a shared Map ID Number. If the actions/recommendations outlined in the report are also recommended by the Board, staff can begin to prepare a report on the necessary tasks and costs associated with these city -initiated map changes. The City will have to perform the map changes according to code, which includes the following tasks: prop Ang plarr:irg arJ mara9,emenf solutions for local governments 1 a�-.u,o�4�t:eet,i7e:�te'Oc• o:t ie:�, iT��:JI ;�- 9- jc�c wwti+•_:a:,le sa�nin��om • Each Map ID will be treated as a separate application. For Map IDs that undergo a zoning map change and a future land use map change, each action will require the City to draft a separate application and staff report. i • The City should attempt to make contact with each property owner to discuss the proposed map change. Yes . Advertising should include the standard required notice procedures (advertising in the local paper) as well as mailings and signage posted on the subject properties. • Each application will require a survey. If the property owner cannot provide one, and the property appraiser does not have one on record, then the City may have to commission new surveys. • If the proposed map changes will allow for an increased intensity of use, the effects to public facilities, utilities and services will need to be assessed.

Comments/Recommendations: A portion of this parcel is zoned Holding and a portion is zoned RSF- 1. Depending on the current/intended use of the property, either the Holding portion of this parcel should be rezoned to RSF-1 or the entire property should be rezoned to Rural Heritage. Map ID #4 Acres: 0.34 Future Land Use: Single Family Residential Use: One Triplex & Two Single Family Residences Comments/Recommendations: Though this parcel contains multi -family structures, this parcel would be nonconforming (too much density for lot size) even with multi -family designations.

It is adjacent to the railway and other industrial to the east. Though there are single family residences to the south, staff is of the opinion that map changes to industrial would provide the most consistency with the existing land use and pattern of land use in the surrounding area. A future land use map amendment to industrial for Lots 19 and 20 in the southeast corner of this parcel should be initiated concurrently with a zoning map change to industrial for the same lots.

Though a rezoning to RSF-1 would make this zoning consistent with the future land use designation, it would not be consistent with the surrounding land use pattern and it is not clear that this change would be beneficial for the property owner, as single family residential is not the likely development for this parcel. Staff does not recommend that any map changes be initiated by the City for this property. When the property owner is ready to develop, they should present their own argument for their desired map changes.

LaKue 13 p 1 agqIln9 Map ID #26 Acres: 0.1 Future Land Use: Commercial Use: Public Utility Comments/Recommendations: This parcel is owned by the Okeechobee Utility Authority. Public facilities are specifically listed as an allowable use in the Commercial future land use category under future land use policy 2.1(d). However, public facility/utility is not listed as a permitted use in any of the commercial zoning districts. Instead, it is listed as special exception use in the commercial zoning districts. The City could rezone this property to one of the commercial zoning district and concurrently approve the public utility as a special exception. However, it is likely more sensible to take no action until the City makes plans to improve the property or sell it.

However, if the owner joins the parcels, the RSF-1 district requirements will be met. We recommend rezoning both parcels to RSF-1 to be consistent with the future land use designation and the character of the surrounding area.

Since this parcel is separate from the bank parcel, the existing land use of this property can best be characterized as a commercial parking lot. Among the commercial zoning districts, the CHV district is the only district that allows commercial parking lot as a permitted use. The actions that would provide the most consistency between the maps and existing land use would be to initiate a future land use map amendment to Commercial and a concurrent rezoning to CHV. Map ID #41 Acres: 39.88 Future Land Use: Mixed Use Residential Use: This parcel was clearly used for agricultural purposes at one time, though it is unclear whether the agricultural use has been maintained. Comments/Recommendations: This parcel meets the minimum size requirements for the Mixed Use Residential future land use category and limited agricultural uses are permitted in the Mixed Use Residential future land use category. However, rezoning to PUD -M should only be approved through the planned unit development process and should not be city initiated. Staff is not recommending any city -initiated map changes for this property. When the property owner is ready to develop, the property owner should proceed with the planned unit development approval process or present their own argument for their desired map changes. ,LaRue 23 M �{ _Q*!g Map Area 8 - Future Land Use ]0 6 9 10 ,t 3 1 2 2 ; Q -H Cr 31 W ;12: 11:-�-_ -;j 6 32 2 t/) ,o B W 10 B ,0 9 5 5 12 11 y"us- S.E. 7 TIM ST =r R x , x1 2 I , • 3 A S3 J .— �__ 2 2 !
