Standards for granting a special exception:
1. Demonstrate that the proposed location and site are appropriate for the use.

access from the south, if required with existing curb cuts off FDOT.
2. Demonstrate how the site and proposed buildings have been designed so they are compatible with the adjacent
uses and the neighborhood or explain why no specific design efforts are needed.
The site and existing building are perfect for this use. There are two existing curb cuts off 441N as

planned to be parked onsite as needed and the storage will be used to support the trucking operation.
3. Demonstrate any landscaping techniques to visually screen the use from adjacent uses; or explain why no
visual screening is necessary.
Visual screening is provided according to the City of Okeechobee's landscape ordinance as it fronts

properties.
4. Demonstrate what is proposed to reduce the impact of any potential hazards, problems or public nuisance
generated by the use; or explain how the nature of the use creates no such potential problems.
The nature of the business is a trucking company to store trucks onsite and provide a fueling station
to be used by the company trucks. There should be no potential hazards or public nuisances created
by the use.
5. Demonstrate how the utilities and other service requirements of the use can be met.
There are existing water and sewer service to the site as well as power, so there are no utility or
service requirements that cannot be met currently.
6. Demonstrate how the impact of traffic generated will be handled, off site and on site.
Traffic will enter and leave from the south off NW 7"' Street as well as Highway 441N. This will all
be company traffic as it is not a business open to the general public. There will be approximately 10
trucks stored and fueled onsite.

Subject: Keith Goodbread Trucking Special Exception
Dear Mr. Smith:
Steven L. Dobbs Engineering, LLC, has completed an analysis of the traffic generation statement for the
above referenced facility. The project is to convert an empty building to storage and parking for semi -
tractor trailers.
This analysis was based on a spreadsheet distributed by the Florida Department of Transportation, which is
based on the Institute of Transportation Engineers (1TE) Trip Generation Manual (8`" Edition). The results
indicate the proposed 0.5 acre Truck Terminal (ITE code 030) generates 41 total daily trips with 3 PM peak
hour trips with 1 being in and 2 being out.
Should you have any questions or comments, please do not hesitate to call.
Sincerely,
Steven L. Dobbs Engineering
Steven U. Dobbs, P. E.
President

The Safest
Storage on the Planet
rytiv.
The Aboveground Solution to the
Underground Problem
Interest in the preservation of our environment has prompted
all levels of many governments to issue strict guidelines for
the installation, operation and removal of underground
storage tanks (UST's). As a result, owners and operators are
faced with tedious and complicated rules and paperwork.
They may also be faced with expensive upgrades, purchase
of monitoring equipment, testing, and obtaining pollution
liability insurance to comply with these requirements. In the
event of a leak, the actual costs for soil and groundwater
clean-up can be catastrophic. As aboveground storage tanks
(AST's) replace UST's on a more regular basis, strict
guidelines are being issued for AST's as well. ConVault's
innovative Protected AST's are the proven solution for these
problems.

Engineered for Safety
ConVault Protected AST's are engineered to survive in the real world. Utilizing patented manufacturing procedures, the
resulting product is a tank for flammable liquids seamlessly encapsulated in six-inch thick concrete with integral secondary
containment, thermal stability, vehicle impact protection, and projectile protection. The system contains no cold joints or
heat transfer points on the bottom or the sides.
ConVault primary steel tanks (including spill containment basins) are fabricated in accordance with UL 142 (Seventh
Edition). Each unit is pressure tested twice at the factory using ConVault patented processes to insure proper performance
in the field. ConVault Protected AST's are shop -fabricated under strict quality controls in accordance with UL 2085 and
ULC-S655 and ULC-S602 for Protected Tanks.
Primary and secondary containment are independently
i} tested at the plant in accordance with UL and ULC
requirements.
The ConVault Protected AST is listed in accordance
with UL 2085, ULC-S655, and ULC-S602
Insulated/Secondary Containment for Aboveground
Storage Tanks, Protected Type.
The six-inch thick (6") concrete exterior acts as a
thermal mass reducing temperature variations,
provides a non -corrosive, durable exterior, and
provides protection for the secondary containment.
The ConVault Protected AST system has passed
numerous performance tests including 2-hour liquid -
pool and furnace fire tests, vehicle impact test and
projectile -resistance test. Numerous real -life events
have also proven the safety of the system. The end
result: owners and operators of ConVault Protected
AST's are provided with PEACE OF MIND.
0E!fAW§§:!
Meets Government,
Environmental and Fire
Safety Regulations
Each ConVault Protected AST is exhaustively
production -tested at the factory before shipment to its
destination. ConVault Protected AST's meet NFPA 30,
30A and 31; UFC, BOCA, SBCCI, and International
Fire Code fire safety requirements and provide
grounding connections in accordance with NFPA 780.
ConVault Protected AST's have been approved by
environmental and fire protection officials in all states of
Australia, all provinces of Canada, all states of the
USA, and by government officials of the Czech
Republic, England, Finland, Germany, Poland, Russia,
and Slovakia.
The California Air Resources Board has certified ConVault Protected AST's for Phase I and II balanced vapor recovery,
including methanol/ethanol blends. ConVault Protected AST's meet all safety requirements for primary and secondary
containment, leak monitoring, spill containment and overfill protection. Specific jurisdictions may have special requirements
for tank accessories. Contact your local representative for local regulations.
With the first installation in 1986, over 27,000 tanks are now in service at extremely diverse locations in over 20 different
countries without a single reported system failure to -date! It is this historical performance that has been the cornerstone of
regulatory comfort with the ConVault protected AST product.
Designed for Value
The ConVault Protected AST system will provide ongoing value for fuel storage. More stringent regulations are consistently
on the horizon; however, with a ConVault Protected AST the need for updating is greatly reduced. ConVault operating costs
are substantially lower than virtually any other AST on the market. The concrete exterior provides protection for the
secondary containment, and acts as a thermal mass, reducing temperature variations (which reduces fuel vapor loss and
water vapor gain), while providing a non -corrosive, durable exterior.
To meet your fuel storage needs, ConVault Protected AST's are manufactured in sizes ranging from 125 to 12,000 US
gallons, or 500 to 45 000 liters (including multi -compartment options). ConVault AST's have a 20 or 30-year warranty.
ConVault Protected AST's are produced at
manufacturing sites around the world. The unit is
shipped as a finished assembly, normally limiting the
need for major on -site work to providing a concrete pad
and electrical service. Although the units are intended for
stationary service, in the event of changing requirements
they can be moved and reinstalled. ConVault Protected
AST's are thus an asset, compared to UST's or "tanks in
dikes" which are usually considered a liability.
Always consult local fire and building codes before
installing a ConVault Protected AST since environmental
and fire safety regulations can vary between
jurisdictions.

Attachments: 2020-10-15 BOA Minutes-DRAFT.pdf
Good Afternoon.
This email is to officially advise you that the Board of Adjustment at its regular meeting on October 15,
2020, approved your request to allow a proposed use of parking and fueling of commercial vehicles which
is comparable to outdoor sales and storage, building trades contractor in a Heavy Commercial Zoning
District, (Ref. Code Sec. 90-283 (5)) located at 701 N. Parrott Avenue with the following special conditions:
maintain private use (company staff and vehicles) of the facility only; prohibit offering fueling and other
services to the public; limit the number of semi -trucks that may be parked on the site at any one time;
striping of semi -truck parking spaces; require additional landscape buffering including installation and
maintenance of specific hedge species (clusia, cocoplum, simpson stopper, silver buttonwood) along
roadways to ensure screening and conditional approval upon all improvements notated on the site
plan being completed.
There are two important timelines you need to be aware of regarding Special Exceptions. Per Sec.
70-348(4) of the City Land Development Regulations, Special Exception use; variance. Special
Exception use and variance approvals shall have a valid period of not more than two years, prior
to which a building permit application must be submitted or the approval shall lapse. Per Sec. 70-
373(f), Nonuse. If the special exception use granted by the board of adjustment should fail to exist
or fail to be used for a continuous period of 180 days, then such use shall lapse and the current
owner be required to reapply as provided in this division. In case of hardship, where the loss of
such special exception would materially affect the integrity of any mortgage or other financing
arrangement on the subject real property, the board of adjustment may consider such hardship in
granting a renewal of such special exception.
A draft copy of the Board of Adjustment Minutes from the October 15, 2020, Meeting is attached for your
information. Should you have any questions, please let me know.
Thank you,

fueling of commercial vehicles including semi -tractor trailer trucks, which is comparable
to outdoor sales and storage, building trades contractor Heavy Commercial (CHV) Zoning
District, (Ref Sec 90-283(5)) on 0.479± acres located at 701 North Parrott Avenue. The
Applicant has stated the facility will not be open to the public and will only be used to park
and fuel their company trucks.
DRAFT October 15, 2020 Board of Adjustment Meeting Page 1 of 11
QUASI-JUDICIAL PUBLIC HEARING ITEM V. A. CONTINUED: There is an existing
1,800 square -foot building on the property which is currently used for storage and for an
office. This structure is non -conforming to the required setbacks and no significant
changes are proposed at this time. The proposed site plan shows usage of only one of
the two entrances from North Parrott Avenue/US Highway 441 and only one of the two
entrances from Northwest 7th Street. In addition, the site plan depicts striped parking in
front of the existing building as well as four striped parking spaces for semi -trucks with an
above ground diesel fuel tank located between the existing building and the semi -truck
parking area. Planner Smith commented it was brought to our attention this week that
there is actually no sewer service on this site as indicated in the application. The septic
tank may be located in the alley to the west and the Applicant is researching this as we
do have some concerns. Issues can arise with paving and driving over the drain field and
septic tank. Lastly, he expressed some concerns with how the semi -trucks will access the
parking spaces especially when some are already parked there. Not sure what the turning
radius is for them to be able to enter and park.
This being a quasi-judicial proceeding, Notary Public Patty Burnette administered
an oath to those intending to offer testimony, all responded affirmatively, stated
their names and addresses for the record. Mr. Mark Goodbread, 12575 State Road
70 East, Okeechobee, Florida; Mr. Chris Luckey, 107 Northeast 8th Avenue,
Okeechobee, Florida; Mr. George Pierce, 109 Northeast 8th Avenue,
Okeechobee, Florida; Ms. Pedie Dickerhoof, 212 Northeast 8th Avenue,
Okeechobee, Florida; Mr. Tom Hardy, 200 Galleria Parkway, SE, Suite 900,
Atlanta, Georgia; Mr. Kevin ..Betancourt, 630Q Northwest 31st Avenue, Fort
Lauderdale, Florida; Mr. Steve'bobbs, 209 Northeast 2nd Street, Okeechobee,
Florida; Mr. Marcos Montes De Oca, 55 Southeast 3rd Avenue, Okeechobee,
Florida; and Mr. Ben Smith, LaRue Planning and Management, 1375 Jackson
Street, Suite 206, Fort Myers, Florida.
Mr. Steven Dobbs, Consultant on behalf of the Property Owner, Mark Goodbread,
Officer of Southern Construction & Development, Inc., was present and available
for questions from the Board. Mr. Dobbs Commented the septic and drain field
could be located in the alley to the West. The Applicant has contacted Okeechobee
Utility Authority and is in the process of meeting with the health department. He
will do whatever is necessary to resolve the situation. The location of the septic
was not indicated on the survey. The plans for the site are to have the trucks come
in and fuel during the day and park in the evenings. Other vehicles that will be
parked there during the daytime hours will be the driver's personal vehicles. Mr.
Goodbread commented they are not planning on using the building other than for
storage. Board Member Brass inquired about the issues of impeding traffic on US
Hwy 441. Mr. Dobbs commented this is for a private use and they will be
coordinating the logistics of the site with the employees so in the event they can
not enter the site without blocking traffic they will go around the block and then
comeback. She also commented she does not see from looking at the site plan
how the trucks will back in there without using US Hwy 441. Mr. Dobbs answered
the site is large enough to maneuver on. He is thinking they will need to park in the
Northern most space first. Vice Chairperson McCoy inquired as to whether there
would be any truck washing on the site. Mr. Dobbs responded as far as he is aware
there will not.
Vice Chairperson McCoy opened the floor for public comment. There was none.
The Petition was advertised in the local newspaper, two signs were posted on the
subject property and courtesy notices were mailed to 15 surrounding property
owners.
Vice Chairperson McCoy disclosed he spoke with both Mr. Dobbs and Mr.
Goodbread as he is the health inspector for the County of Okeechobee and looked
at the fuel tank for necessary requirements. No other disclosures were offered.
5. Planning Staff's responses to the Applicant's presentation on consistency with the
Land Development Regulations (LDR's) are, the proposed use is specially listed
as a special exception use in the CHV Zoning District.
DRAFT October 15, 2020 Board of Adjustment Meeting Page 2 of 11
QUASI-JUDICIAL PUBLIC HEARING ITEM V. A. CONTINUED: North Parrott
Avenue/Highway 441 is considered a shipping corridor, and should some buffering
be provided, and the usage be limited to private fueling and parking of company
trucks, then the location should be appropriate for the intended uses. The property
to the immediate North of the subject parcel is designated Commercial (C) on the
Future Land Use Map (FLUM) and zoned CHV with the use being that of a
computer repair/UHaul business. The property to the East is designated C on the
FLUM and zoned CHV with the use being that of Sears retail store. The property
to the South is designated C on the FLUM and zoned CHV with the use being that
the Traveler's Inn Motel. The property to the West is designated Industrial (1) on
the FLUM and zoned Industrial (IND) with the use being that of Central Storage
Company self -storage facility. The proposed use is not expected to negatively
affect adjacent uses. The only new structures proposed for the site are an above
ground fuel tank and a fence. The Applicant's site plan depicts landscaping
meeting the minimum standards of the City's Land Development Regulations
(LDR's), including buffers along both roadways. The main potential issues on this
site are the aesthetics of the truck parking, the safety of the fueling tank, and the
potential for truck movements to block traffic on North Parrott Avenue/Highway
441. The site plan does provide two bollards for the fuel tank. Additional bollards
should be used to ensure protection of the tank. It may be questionable whether
trucks will be able to back into the parking area shown on the site plan or back out
of the parking area without using the North Parrott Avenue/Highway 441 right-of-
way or blocking it for short periods of time. Water and wastewater services are
currently provided by the Okeechobee Utility Authority. The location of the site
outside of the city center and with direct frontage on US Highway 441 is appropriate
for this use. If use is limited to the applicant's company trucks and is not open to
the public, then the use should not generate a sufficient amount of vehicle trips
(semi -trucks or otherwise) to overburden the local roadways. However, the size of
the lot may not be adequate to facilitate truck movements that do not impede traffic
on US Highway 441. Additionally, there does not seem to be adequate space on
the site for storage of 10 semi -trucks. Should the Applicant's request be approved,
the Board may want to consider placing a restriction on the number of semi -trucks
that may be parked at one time on the site.
Planning Staff's responses to the Applicant's presentation on the required findings
are the property is designated C on the FLUM and the proposed use is not contrary
to the Comprehensive Plan. The Applicant is requesting to allow parking and
fueling of commercial vehicles which is comparable to outdoor sales and storage,
building trades contractor is included under the list of Special Exception Uses in
fi the CHV Zoning District. The proposed use could adversely affect the public
interest should trucks cause blockages on North Parrott Avenue/US Highway 441.
With landscape buffering, the proposed use is appropriate for this location
however, the size of the subject parcel may not be appropriate for this use, as the
Applicant has not demonstrated that there is sufficient space for semi -trucks to use
the truck parking area without blocking the public roadways. The proposed use
should not be a deterrent to the existing uses on adjacent property. A landscape
buffer is proposed. The proposed use should not have a significant impact on water
and wastewater. Residential density and school capacity will not be affected as no
dwelling units are proposed and should the use be limited to company staff and
vehicles, then vehicle trip generation should also not be significant. The site plan
does include a water detention feature that will be reviewed by the city engineer
and building department.
Based on the foregoing analysis, we find that the subject property may not be large
enough to fully accommodate the internal circulation and parking of multiple semi -
trucks. Otherwise, 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. If the Applicant can demonstrate that
ingress, egress and interior circulation will not cause significant blockages of North
Parrott Avenue/US Highway 441, then we recommend approval of the Special
Exception for outdoor sales and storage building trades contractor.
DRAFT October 15, 2020 Board of Adjustment Meeting Page 3 of 11
QUASI-JUDICIAL PUBLIC HEARING ITEM V. A. CONTINUED: Additionally, the
Board may consider placing conditions on their approval including; need to
maintain private use (company staff and vehicles only) of the facility only; prohibit
offering fueling and other services to the public; limiting the number of semi -trucks
that may be parked on the site at any one time; striping of semi -truck parking
spaces; and requiring additional landscape buffering including installation and
maintenance of specific hedge species (e.g. clusia, cocoplum, simpson stopper,
silver buttonwood, etc.) along roadways to ensure screening.
A motion was offered by Board Member Chartier to approve Special Exception
Petition No. 20-001-SE which requests to allow a proposed use of parking and
fueling of commercial vehicles including semi -tractor trailer trucks, which is
comparable to outdoor sales and storage, building trades contractor Heavy
Commercial (CHV) Zoning District, (Ref Sec 90-283(5)) on 0.479± acres located
at 701 North Parrott Avenue with the following conditions: maintain private use
(company staff and vehicles) of the facility only. Prohibit offering fueling and other
services to the public; limit the number of semi -trucks that may be parked on the
site at any one time; striping of semi -truck parking spaces; require additional
landscape buffering including installation and maintenance of specific hedge
species (clusia, cocoplum, simpson stopper, silver buttonwood) along roadways to
ensure screening and conditional approval upon all improvements notated on the
site plan being completed; seconded by Board Member Baughman.
a) The Board briefly considered whether to add another condition regarding
the septic system and in the end did not.
b) Vice Chairperson McCoy, Board Members Saipghman, Brass, Chartier,
Papasso and Shaw voted: Aye. Nays: None Absent Chairperson
Hoover. Motion Carried.
B. City Planning Consultant Smith briefly reviewed the Planning Staff Report for Special
Exception Petition No. 20-004-SE, which requests to allow a proposed use of drive -
through service in a CHV Zoning District, (Ref. Code Sec. 90-283 (1)) on 18.86± acres
located at 975 NE Park Street which is a proposed site for a RaceTrac gas station and
convenience store. This site plan was previously approved by the Technical Review
Committee and the Board of Adjustment previously approved a special exception for a
convenience store with fuel pumps for this same project on May 21, 2020. Since then, the
Applicant has made substantial revisions to the site plan including: a larger development
area footprint on the parcel; drive through service was added; the floor area for the
convenience store has been increased from 5,411 to 8,100 square feet; and one
additional semi -truck fueling station has been added as well as a truck scale. The
Applicant is planning to construct the RaceTrac gas station and convenience store on the
Southwest 7.11 acres of the subject parcel (shown as parcel 1 on the survey). At this
time, the Applicant is not proposing any development of the remaining area of Parcel 1.
It is important to note that, despite the fact that the currently proposed development area
is only a portion of the subject property, the applicant has applied for this special exception
with a legal description that encompasses all of the subject property (parcel 1). If
approved as requested, this special exception to allow drive through service will apply to
the entire 18.86± acres of parcel 1 and it is conceivable that future development of the
parcel could include drive through service without requesting another special exception
for drive through service. Planner Smith also conveyed a revised site plan was reviewed
by the Technical Review Committee (TRC) this morning and approval was made with a
few conditions. City Administrator Montes De Oca offered information from the morning's
TRC Meeting to the Board. There will be some modifications made to the curbing in the
top area of the drive through to accommodate an easier turn for trucks with trailers or
boats. Semi -trucks and RV will not be able to use the drive through. Some additional
information was needed by the OUA. In addition to the wall along the Western boundary,
there will be additional landscape buffering there and to the North above and beyond what
is required. This will help to reduce noise and beautify the area. An additional landscaping
island is required in the rear where truck parking is shown to be to break up the continuous
row of parking. RaceTrac is currently working with the Florida Department of
Transportation (FDOT) in regard to additional signalization. This type of use is exactly
what one would see in the CHV corridor area.

Goodbread Special Exception 20-001-SE
Steve,
The City received information yesterday that the Goodbread property at 701 N Parrot Ave does not have sewer service
and that the bathroom in the office is actually connected to a septic tank that is located in the alley. This is contrary to
several statements in the submittal package and raises concerns regarding the ongoing use and maintenance of the
septic system. Please contact the health department and see what records they have so that this issue can be discussed
with the Board at the meeting on Thursday.

Subject: 701 N Parrot Ave
Good afternoon John,
We've been working with the Steve Dobbs and the applicant for some time regarding Special Exception Request 20-001-
SE for the Goodbread trucking property. One of the things we did not question was the presence of OUA service for
water and sewer. Steve mentions it several times in the submittal package and the property fronts on 441. We
submitted our staff report for the request last week and it is scheduled to be heard by the Board this Thursday.
However, Patty just received a call from a surrounding property owner to inform that there is a septic tank for the
bathroom in the alley. What can you tell us about this? Do you know if sewer service is available at the site and is there
any record of a septic tank there?
Just so you know, Marcos and I agreed not to send this project to TRC. They just need a special exception for the use,
but they are not adding any structures besides the fuel tank and a fence. The staff report is attached. Thanks for the
help.

The matter for consideration by the City of Okeechobee Board of Adjustment is a request for a
Special Exception to allow parking and fueling of commercial vehicles (including semi -tractor
trailer trucks) from an above ground fuel tank at the subject property, which is zoned CHV
Commercial Heavy. This use is not explicitly allowed in Section 90-282 as a permitted use in the
CHV district but is comparable to "outdoor sales and storage, building trades contractor", which
is specifically listed in Section 90-283 as a special exception use in the CHV district. The applicant
has stated that the facility will not be open to the public and will only be used to park and fuel their
company trucks.

Special Exception Request Petition No. 20-001-SE
The subject site is located directly on US-441 (Parrot Avenue) on the northwest corner of 441 and
NW 7th Street. There is an existing 1,800 square foot structure on the property which is currently
used for office and storage. The structure is non -conforming to the setback requirements and no
significant changes are proposed for the structure at this time.
There are two existing curb cuts on 441 as well as two existing entrances on NW 7th. The
proposed site plan shows usage of only one entrance from 441 and one entrance from NW 7th.
The site plan shows new striped parking added in front of the existing building as well as an un-
striped parking area for 4 semi -trucks. An above ground diesel fuel tank is depicted between the
existing building and the proposed semi -truck parking area.

Section 70-373(b) requires that the Applicant address the following standards for granting a
Special Exception during his/her presentation to the Board of Adjustment. The Applicant has
submitted, as part of the submission, brief statements and information addressing these
standards. These are repeated below in Times Roman typeface exactly as provided by the
Applicant. Staff has made no attempt to correct typos, grammar, or clarify the Applicant's
comments. Staff comments follow and are shown in Arial typeface.
(1) Demonstrate that the proposed location and site are appropriate for the use.
APPLICANT RESPONSE: The site fronts on 441N at the northwest corner of NW 7" Avenue (sic)
and 441 N. The site has good access from the south, if required with existing curb cuts off FDOT.
STAFF COMMENTS: 441 is considered a shipping corridor and this site's location on 441
is outside the central business district and historic area of the City. If some buffering is
provided and usage is limited to private fueling and parking of company trucks, then this
location should be appropriate for the intended uses without the need to provide roadway
improvements.

Staff Report Applicant: Southern Construction & Development
Special Exception Request Petition No. 20-001-SE
(2) Demonstrate how the site and proposed buildings have been designed so they are
compatible with the adjacent uses and the neighborhood, or explain why no specific design
efforts are needed.
APPLICANT RESPONSE: The site and existing building are perfect for this use. There are two
existing curb cuts off 441N as well as a culvert crossing from the south. This will allow the site to be
accessed by the semi -trucks planned to be parked onsite as needed and the storage will be used to
support the trucking operation.
STAFF COMMENTS: There is an existing 1,800 square foot building on the site, which the
applicant is not proposing to expand or make any changes to at this time. The only new
structures proposed are the above ground fuel tank and a fence. The fuel tank has been
located to meet the above ground fuel tank setbacks provided in City Code Section 90-692.
The proposed fence is chain link and will meet the height requirements of 90-639.
(3) Demonstrate any landscaping techniques to visually screen the use from adjacent uses; or
explain why no visual screening is necessary.
APPLICANT RESPONSE: Visual screening is provided according to the City of Okeechobee's
landscape ordinance as it fronts on 441N which is heavily traveled and this use will not cause any
adverse impacts to adjacent properties.
STAFF COMMENTS: The Applicant's site plan depicts landscaping which meets the
minimum standards of the City's land development code, including buffers along both
roadways.
(4) Demonstrate what is proposed to reduce the impacts of any potential hazards, problems or
public nuisance generated by the use or explain how the nature of the use creates no such
potential problems.
APPLICANT RESPONSE: The nature of the business is a trucking company to store trucks onsite
and provide a fueling station to be used by the company trucks. There should be no potential hazards
or public nuisances created by the use.
STAFF COMMENTS: The main potential issues on this site are the aesthetics of the truck
parking, the safety of the fueling tank, and the potential for truck movements to block traffic
on 441. The site plan does provide buffer landscaping along the roadway and two bollards
for the fuel tank. Additional bollards should be used to ensure protection of the tank. In staff's
opinion, it is questionable whether trucks will be able to back into parking area shown on
the plan or back out of the parking area without using the 441 right-of-way or blocking it for
short periods of time.
(5) Demonstrate how the utilities and other service requirements of the use can be met.
APPLICANT RESPONSE: There are existing water and sewer service to the site as well as power,
so there are no utility or service requirements that cannot be met currently.
STAFF COMMENTS: Water and sewer service is currently provided by Okeechobee Utility
Authority.
L,RV� 3
pilanning
Staff Report Applicant: Southern Construction & Development
Special Exception Request Petition No. 20-001-SE
(6) Demonstrate how the impact of traffic generation will be handled off site and on -site.
APPLICANT RESPONSE: Traffic will enter and leave from the south off NW 7th Street as well
as Highway 441N. This will all be company traffic as it is not a business open to the general public.
There will be approximately 10 trucks stored and fueled onsite.
STAFF COMMENTS: The location of the site outside of the city center and with direct
frontage on US-441 is appropriate for this use. If use is limited to the applicant's company
trucks and is not open to the public, then the use should not generate a sufficient amount of
vehicle trips (semi -trucks or otherwise) to overburden the local roadways. However, the size
of the lot may not be adequate to facilitate truck movements that do not impede traffic on
441. Additionally, there does not seem to be adequate space on the site for storage of 10
semi -trucks. The Board may consider placing a restriction on the number of semi -trucks that
may be parked at one time on the site.
When reaching a conclusion on a Special Exception request, the Board of Adjustment shall
consider and show in its record the following findings as set forth in Section 70-373(c)(1)-(8). The
required findings are listed below followed by the Applicant's statements in Times Roman typeface
exactly as provided by the Applicant. Staff has made no attempt to correct typos, grammar, or
clarify the Applicant's comments. Staff comments follow and are shown in Arial typeface.
(1) The use is not contrary to the Comprehensive Plan requirements.
APPLICANT RESPONSE: This parcel is zoned Heavy Commercial and has a Future Land Use of
Commercial and this special exception request is in the Heavy Commercial Zoning. This parcel is
perfect for business such as the one proposed and is absolutely within the spirit of the Comprehensive
Plan.
STAFF COMMENTS: Future Land Use Policy 2.1(d) describes the permitted uses of the
Commercial future land use category to include automotive and warehousing. These broad
use descriptions are consistent with the applicant's proposed uses.
(2) The use is specifically authorized as a special exception use in the zoning district.
APPLICANT RESPONSE: According to the City of Okeechobee, Code of Ordinances Section 90-
283(5), Outdoor sales and storage, building trades contractor is specifically authorized in the Land
Development Regulations.
STAFF COMMENTS: In addition to the existing uses (office and indoor storage) taking
place at the subject property, the applicant is requesting a special exception to allow parking
and fueling of commercial vehicles, including semi -tractor trailer trucks. While this use is not
exactly described in Section 90-282 as a permitted use in the CHV district, it is comparable
to "outdoor sales and storage, building trades contractor", which is specifically listed in
Section 90-283 as a special exception use in the CHV district.
(3) The use will not have an adverse effect on the public interest.
APPLICANT RESPONSE: It should have a positive effect on neighboring businesses by utilizing
a currently vacant building and parcel and should have a positive effect on the public interest.

planning
Staff Report Applicant: Southern Construction & Development
Special Exception Request Petition No. 20-001-SE
STAFF COMMENTS: This use could adversely affect the public interest if trucks using the
site cause blockages on US-441.
(4) The use is appropriate for the proposed location, is reasonably compatible with adjacent
uses and is not detrimental to urbanizing land use patterns.
APPLICANT RESPONSE: Yes, this parcel is currently developed so the urbanizing land use has
been established and the business is compatible with other businesses in the vicinity.
STAFF COMMENTS: With landscape buffering, the proposed use is appropriate for this
location on US-441. However, the size of the subject parcel may not be appropriate for this
use, as the applicant has not demonstrated that there is sufficient space for semi -trucks to
use the truck parking area without blocking the public roadways.
(5) The use will not adversely affect property values or living conditions, nor be a deterrent to
the development of adjacent property.
APPLICANT RESPONSE: This change will not negatively impact property values or living
conditions, nor deter development of adjacent property as all adjacent property is already developed.
STAFF COMMENTS: This use should not be a detriment to the existing uses on adjacent
properties which are typical heavy commercial and industrial uses.
(6) The use may be required to be screened from surrounding uses to reduce the impact of any
nuisance or hazard to adjacent uses.
APPLICANT RESPONSE: No hazards or impacts are anticipated by this use to adjacent uses as
previously discussed.
STAFF COMMENTS: The site plan shows a landscape buffer is proposed which meets the
minimum requirements of the City's land development code. If deemed necessary, the
Board can consider requiring additional landscaping or other screening.
(7) The use will not create a density pattern that will overburden public facilities such as schools,
streets, and utility services.
APPLICANT RESPONSE: This use will not overburden public facilities including streets and as
stated previously the utilities already servicing this site are sufficient for the proposed use.
STAFF COMMENTS: Residential density and school capacity will not be affected, as no
dwelling units are proposed at this time. Water and sewer capacity should not be
significantly affected by the proposed use. If use of the facility is limited to company staff
and vehicles, then vehicle trip generation should also not be significant.
8) The use will not create traffic congestion, flooding or drainage problems, or otherwise affect
public safety.
APPLICANT RESPONSE: The site is already developed and there are no flooding or drainage
issues in the area with none anticipated. There are no impacts to public safety anticipated by the
addition of this use on the site.

Staff Report Applicant: Southern Construction & Development
Special Exception Request Petition No. 20-001-SE
STAFF COMMENTS: The site plan does include a water detention feature that will be
reviewed by the city engineer and building department. As discussed above, the proposed
use is not expected to generate a significant number of vehicle trips. Though there are
questions as to whether turning movements could block traffic flow on 441.
Based on the foregoing analysis, we find that the subject property may not be large enough to
fully accommodate the internal circulation and parking of multiple semi -trucks. Otherwise, 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. If the
applicant can demonstrate that ingress, egress and interior circulation will not cause significant
blockages of US-441, then we recommend approval of the Special Exception for outdoor sales
and storage building trades contractor. Additionally, the Board may consider placing conditions
on their approval including:
1. Maintain private use (company staff and vehicles only) of the facility only. Prohibit offering
fueling and other services to the public.
2. Limiting the number of semi -trucks that may be parked on the site at any one time.
3. Striping of semi -truck parking spaces.
4. Requiring additional landscape buffering including installation and maintenance of specific
hedge species (e.g. clusia, cocoplum, simpson stopper, silver buttonwood, etc.) along
roadways to ensure screening.

Ben,
I am looking at this as a private operation and they will not be parking trucks while trying to fuel a truck, it that does not
work. It is a tight site and a central location for them. This is mainly a fueling site for them and some trucks will be
parked here overnight. They have other places to park the trucks overnight.
I have copied the client for their input, if I misunderstand their operation, but from my recollection this is what we
discussed.

Steve,
I'm looking again at this site plan for the Goodbread property and wondering how a truck would be able to back into
the spaces in the northwest corner if there is already a truck parked adjacent to the fuel tank or any of the other
spaces. Is this possible without using the 441 ROW? This is one of my main concerns for this special exception request
and I will be discussing it with the Board at the meeting. It would be really helpful if you could provide a diagram that
shows the turning that would be required for this.

Some additional bollards would be good. It looks like there are only two proposed?
Please provide some details on the proposed fence on the plans, including fence type and height.
I may recommend that the Board consider a limitation on the number of trucks parked to be parked at
the site at one time. Any more than 4, and it seems like there could be circulation issues.

Steve,
A few comments on the latest submittals:
Asphalt millings are not paving. The parking and circulation areas must be paved.
Please see attached revised plan showing asphalt pavement
2. The site plan notes indicate that 4 parking spaces are provided, with one of those being a handicapped parking
space. However, since there is no striping shown, there are actually no parking spaces (ADA or otherwise)
depicted on the plan.
Parking spaces have been added as requested.
3. If a fence is being added, then some notes should be added to indicate compliance with section 90-639. It
should be no more that 2.5' tall in the visibility triangle, no more than 5' tall elsewhere in front of the front
building line, and no more than 8' tall in the sides and rear. In this case, the front building line is the eastern
edge of the building. Section 66-1 defines a visibility triangle as the triangle of land formed by a straight line
connecting two points located on, and 35 feet from, the intersection of the two street property lines.
This is a 100' with the ditch on the north side. The 35' site triangle would not even intersect the property lines,
however, the fence will be a chain link fence. The other dimensions have been passed on to the owner.
4. The revised response to 70-373(c)(6) states that there will be approximately 10 trucks stored and fueled onsite,
whereas the site plan only shows a parking area for 4 trucks. It is very difficult to visualize how this site can
accommodate 10 trucks. If the applicant wishes to park more trucks than 4, please show on the site plan how
that will work. An internal circulation plan may help. With the location on 441 and the tight turn in from 7th off
441, we need to make sure that internal circulation issues do not lead to trucks blocking lanes on 441.
Please note, I may not have given you an accurate description of the operation of this facility. The owner owns 14 trucks
and they are parked at night in various locations, however, each truck is used daily so when fueling operations are taking
place, there will be no trucks parked as shown on the plan. The additional trucks are parked elsewhere on the owner's
other properties.
I'm available if you'd like to discuss.

Steve,
Patty sent me the revised application for this and let me know that a building permit was issued for the tank. This
revised site plan looks pretty good. Just a few things:
(1) Can you revise the application a little and the responses to the special exception standards/findings? I believe
you previously told me that this facility will not be open to the general public. Can you please discuss this and
clarify that on the description of the proposed uses in the application? How many trucks are anticipated to come
through for fueling on a daily or weekly or monthly basis? Now that the site plan includes some landscape
screening, can you update the response to standard 70-373(b)(3), which states that visual screening is not
necessary?
Please find attached the revised applications.
(2) The locations of the tank protection bollards should be depicted on the site plan.
Please see revised site plan
(3) Please indicate that the grey shaded areas represent either solid concrete or asphalt paving.
Clarified in the legend.
(4) The site plan indicates that there is one dwelling unit with 6 bedrooms. Is this correct? I thought the building
was just office and storage.
Corrected.

Steve,
Patty and I were just discussing this application and wanted to let you know it seems best at this point to hold off on
advertisement for the September meeting. Demonstrating the internal circulation and the parking capacity of the site
seems like an important issue that the Board members should be able to review in order to make an educated
determination on the special exception request. As such, it does not seem prudent to advertise before we receive
revised plans that show this. In addition to the items listed below, permanent striping should be added. Not just the
standard sized parking spaces and ADA parking space for the structure, but also the semi truck parking spaces as well.
Let me know if you'd like to discuss.
Thanks,

Good Morning.
spoke with Marcos a bit ago and inquired about whether this Applicant would be permitted to use asphalt
millings for the gray areas indicated on his site plan and he said no they would need to pave the area. He
doesn't believe he would require Site Plan Review as there is an existing building on site and the site plan
submitted with the application indicates the required landscaping, drainage and such.

Good Morning Ben.
I was looking over this information and I have a few questions:
• Steve indicates in his response to Question 6 that there will be approximately 10 trucks stored and
fueled on the site. On the site plan it only indicates 4. Not sure if this is relevant or not?
This should not be permitted. Based on the site plan, I would recommend that a condition of the special
exception should be that a maximum of 4 trucks be stored at any time on the property
• It is noted in the legend that the gray area will be proposed asphalt millings. I am going to email
Marcos with this information because I don't believe this will be permitted as I know he just told
someone else no.
City Code requires paving. Asphalt millings are not sufficient. This is why I asked him to notate on the plan that it
would be asphalt or concrete pavement.
• Is this going to require site plan approval? I know usually FDOT reviews site and determines if they
can have all the cuts on 441 and also the cut on NW Th Street seems to be pretty close to the
road. I am going to check with Marcos to see what his thoughts are. Looks like a culvert is needed
as well. Not sure if there will be any permits pulled from the building department (fuel tank one has
been issued already) where sometimes this stuff is addressed.
I'm happy to let Marcos decide whether this should go for TRC site plan review. There are already two curb cuts
onto 441 and they're only going to be using one of them. There is no "curb" on 71h but they also have two
existing drives on that roadway, only one of which will be used in the new site plan.
Will et back to you as soon as he gets back to me.
Thank you.

Good Morning Sir.
The attached Site Plan is for the GoodBread property in which they are applying for a Special Exception
for outdoor sales and storage. According to the answers to the required findings, approximately 10 trucks
will be stored and fuel onsite. There will only be company traffic as this is not a business open to the
public. Traffic is supposed to enter and leave from NW 7th Street as well as Parrott Avenue.
have a few questions:
• It is noted in the legend that the gray area will be proposed asphalt millings. Is this going to be
permitted?
• Is this going to require site plan approval? I know usually FDOT reviews site and determines if they
can have all the cuts on 441 and also the cut on NW 7th Street seems to be pretty close to the

there will be any permits pulled from the building department (fuel tank one has been issued

Steve or not on this?
• Please review and advise so I can discuss with Ben.

No problem, this was not created as a site plan, only an exhibit for the planning board. It has morphed into something

Marcos,
Quick background:
Currently we have a Special Exception application pending for the above address. It has had needed
information missing since being submitted on 2/5/20. The applicant is proposing to use the building on the
parcel for storage and to park semi -trucks in the parking lot with a fuel tank for fueling those trucks. A site
plan was requested that showed parking and landscaping. In the meantime the fuel tank was set onsite
without a building permit or going through site plan if needed.
Questions:
-6 • Although there may be something specific in our Code and I just cannot find it, since Code
e� Enforcement is involved with this property because of installing the fuel tank without a Building/Fire
y� permit and on the application it asks if there is a use on the property that is or was in violation of a
city or county ordinance, I was thinking this application could not be presented to the BOA until the
\ \� Code Enforcement issue was taken care of??? Someone came in last week to pick up permit
th paperwork although nothing has been submitted for review.
�;,�°� �,• A site development plan (one of the documents listed in our Code that is required for a Special
Exception) was received on 5/6/20. It depicted no landscaping or parking. Ben sent an email on
Monday to Steve Dobbs, the applicant's consultant, asking about these things and also mentioned
water management. I spoke with Ben this afternoon and he said that Steve has provided another
revision, which I haven't seen yet, that shows almost the entire site that is not occupied by the
building being impervious and barely any landscaping. Steve more or less indicated to Ben that he
just wanted to move this along and he would speak to you about taking care of the site after the
Special Exception approval. I asked Ben to call you because there is no section in the Code
specifically devoted to describing when a site plan is required to be submitted. There are sections
that referred to the need of one. In the past, situations were looked at to see if we could work with
the Applicant on these issues through the building permitting process instead of them going to a
formal site plan and paying the fee. A few years ago this parcel had been granted a Special
Exception and approval included site plan review. The application moved no further as the
applicant never submitted. Ben just isn't sure how to proceed with his review and how to offer a
recommendation when all the information required is not indicated.

Hey Steve,
A few things:
• The street label on the plan should be NW 71h Street, not SW 71h Street. It looks like that will need to be
corrected on the survey as well.
• Am I understanding the site plan correctly? It doesn't look like a y paving r landscaping is depicted. Water
management will also be important.
• Has the applicant decided on a use for the structure? ,

Subject: RE: Goodbread Trucking
Steve,
Just to lay out the reasoning for the determination:
• The application package that was submitted for the special use exception presents a scope of uses (enclosed
storage, parking trailer trucks, fueling from an above ground fuel tank) that closely aligns with those listed as
special exception uses in the CHV district under City Code Section 90-283.
• City Code Section 90-511(e) requires parking and loading spaces to be paved.
• City Code Sections 90-533 and 90-534 require landscaping for the parking area and perimeter buffers.
• According to Appendix A of the City's Code, a site development plan is a required component of a special
exception use petition. This special exception site development plan doesn't need to be as comprehensive as a
site plan submitted to the TRC for site plan review, but it should demonstrate that the basic requirements are
being met. In this case, the paving and landscaping should be included on the site plan in order for me to make a
recommendation on the application and for the Board to make a decision.

Herb,
I have spoken to Fred twice. Left a message for you and sent an email to you and Jeff most recently and have had
conversations with Ben Smith and Marcos concerning this project.
Originally, I was asked to help with a special exception for the project to add a contractor Storage yard to the site, we
were then going to determine during that project whether we needed to go through site plan. When Ben was reviewing
the special exception package, I brought up the only thing being stored onsite is semi -trailers that are tagged and not
considered material. I have not had a final determination on that yet. Ben did tell me that, if trucks were going to be
parked, it would have to be on a permanent surface (concrete/asphalt) and we would have to go through site plan.
We have had several between my self and Dave (a guy who works for Keith) with the City about the tank being installed
and I have never been told and I can't speak for Dave that the tank had to wait until a determination was made.
I was again asked to help register the fuel tank with FDEP, which was shown on the plan submitted for the special
exception. The site is shell with some concrete and remnants of asphalt

Has either one of you contacted code enforcement or the owner about this? We
need to contact the owner and advise them to remove immediately or they will be
brought before the code board. Due to the pandemic issue, this will not be quick
so 1 think the first thing we should do is to speak with the owner over the phone
in a conference call or something to explain the situation and the possible legal
options we have to enforce compliance. What are your thoughts?

Subject: RE: Okeechobee 20-001-SE
Steve,
I appreciate your efforts on behalf of your client and I'm not trying to be unreasonable. We just want to make sure that
submittal package accurately reflects the scope of the project and meets all the requirements before we bring it to the
Board. According to Appendix A of the City's LDC, a site development plan is a required component of a special
exception use petition. I'm not saying that we need everything that would be required for the TRC site plan review. But
the site plan for the special use exception petition should demonstrate that the basic requirements are being met.
Not only does the submitted site plan omit landscaping and paving, but in response to the requirement that the
applicant "Demonstrate any landscaping techniques to visually screen the use from adjacent uses; or explain why no
visual screening is necessary", the submitted response is, "Visual screening will not be required for the site as it fronts
on 441N which is heavily traveled and this use will not cause any adverse impacts to adjacent properties."
According to the code, this project requires paving and landscaping. it's difficult for me to make a recommendation
without some assurance that the requirements of the code will be met and I expect that the Board may have a tough
time making a decision without the same assurance. If you and your client can commit to providing a revised basic site
plan and a revised application which demonstrate that the paving and landscaping requirements will be met by next
week, then we can advertise this for the April meeting.
Sorry I missed your call yesterday as I was on the way to the City Council meeting. So you know, they adopted a
resolution declaring a state of emergency. So hopefully there is an April meeting. Not sure what the City will be
canceling due to the corona virus. I have not heard that they are canceling the P&Z meeting tomorrow but we'll certainly
let you know if they do.
I'm in the office all day today if you want to call and discuss.

Ben,
Please find the app and responses to questions.
Typically, a site plan for the special exception is just for giving the planning board an idea of how the project is going to
work. I always tell my clients that I do not want to go into the full site plan until the special exception is finished since if
it gets rejected, there will not be a site plan. Not sure what that requirement of full site plan that meets the City's LDRs
would be required at this point.
Not trying to be hard to get along with, just trying to treat my clients the way I would want to be treated. I would not
want to pay for full site plan for a special exception
Please call with any questions.

In order to proceed, we really need the application package revised to clearly and accurately describe the proposed uses
and operations. Right now, there are references to the building being used for office and a convenient store, but below I
think you're saying the building will just be used for storage. And we need the site plan revised showing all requirement
met for this application as well, not just for the TRC review. And like Patty said, a revised traffic statement.
Thanks,

Sorry, the traffic generation was an old one and I forgot to update to the new use. They are only going to use the lot for
storage in the building and parking of trucks in the parking lot with a fuel tank for fueling the trucks that park
onsite. There is no convenient store or any other uses than the ones described above. Let's move forward with the
special exception and we will modify the site plan at that time.
Please call with any questions.

Steve,
Can you please explain a little better what is planned for the entire scope of operations at the Goodbread property
where the outdoor sales and storage special exception is being requested? In your responses to the findings, it sounds
like an office use with refueling and parking of trucks; and that it will not be open to the general public. But in the traffic
letter, it says, "The project is to convert and existing metal building onsite to a drive thru convenient store." What will be
the use of that existing building?
Also, according to the code, the parking areas will need to be paved and landscaping requirements will need
So the site plan would have to be amended to reflect that. Please let me know how you want to proceed or t,
call if you'd like to discuss.
Thanks,

Thanks. Knowing now what you told me about the past submittals for this property and the fact that they already
installed the fuel tank and are parking trucks there, I don't think I could recommend approval of the special exception
without them committing to the necessary improvements.
