P(OL� 1. City Planning Consultant Mr. Ben Smith of Morris-Depew Associates, Inc. briefly reviewed the Planning Staff Report, Applicant has submitted a concurrent special exception application (23-001-SE) for approval of the proposed drive-thru, access to the 2.16-acre subject property is provided by NE 13th Avenue, which will be improved as part of the replat. OUA has provided a letter indicating the water and sewer plants have available remaining capacity and that any extensions or upgrades necessary due to the designs or demands of the proposed project will be at the owner's expense. The applicant has provided a traffic analysis demonstrating available roadway capacity for a 4,600 sq/ft drive -through restaurant. P. Burnette Handwritten Minutes, November 16, 2023, Page 1 of 33 V. NEW BUSINESS ITEM A CONTINUED Two ingress/egress driveways are proposed on the eastern property boundary with access to NE 13th Ave. An ingress/egress driveway is proposed on the western property boundary, providing through -access to the abutting commercial parcel to the west. Internal two-way drive aisles are a minimum 24' wide. A crosswalk for pedestrians is provided from the northern parking area through the drive -through lanes to provide access to the building sidewalk. Additionally, the applicant has provided a queuing analysis with the special exception application. The analysis demonstrates that the site contains sufficient vehicle stacking capacity to accommodate peak demand without causing vehicle stacking to exceed the boundaries of the site. Service Vehicle Access and Egress: A. Fire Truck Sufficiency of fire truck access and egress to be addressed by the Fire Department. B. Loading Zone No Loading zones are required per the City's zoning code, and none are proposed. C. Dumpster Location and/or Trash Collection The site plan provides a dumpster enclosure. Sufficiency of the dumpster enclosure and location will be addressed by the solid waste provider. The proposed drive -through restaurant use is consistent with the comprehensive plan and is compatible with surrounding uses. Drive -through service is a special exception use within the Heavy Commercial (CHV) zoning district. The applicant has submitted a concurrent special exception application, 23-001-SE, to approve the drive -through use. The City's Board of Adjustment will determine whether the drive -through is approved, denied, or approved with conditions. Subject property has frontage on SR-70, proximate to other commercial uses, and it is not expected that the proposed restaurant use will create any adverse impacts on the health, safety, and welfare of the surrounding community.

Site Plan Review Application No. 23-007-TRC, construction of a proposed 4,600 square foot automated carwash and self-service vacuum spaces on 1.58± acres, located within the 1200 block along the North side of North Park Street/State Road 70 East, just West of the eastern City Limits/Northeast 13th Avenue, Lot 1. 1. City Planning Consultant Mr. Ben Smith of Morris-Depew Associates, Inc. briefly reviewed the Planning Staff Report. A special exception application (23-002-SE) has also been submitted for approval of the car wash use in the CHV district, subject Lot 1, of the recently approved Park Street Commerce Park plat (23-003-TRC), which includes more information related to the replat and associated infrastructure plans. Site plan includes: • 3 vehicle entry lanes, each with a menu board for customers to select car wash options and make payment • A 4,596 sq/ft automated carwash building • 5 spaces intended for employees • 19 vacuum spaces Applicant is requesting that the TRC approve a parking reduction as part of the site plan approval. The LDR requires 31 parking spaces for the 4,596 sq/ft. OUA has provided a letter indicating the water and sewer plants have available remaining capacity and that any extensions or upgrades necessary due to the designs or demands of the proposed project will be at the owner's expense. A Traffic Impact Study has been provided within the submittal package, completed for an automated car wash. The Traffic Study, which utilized ITE 11 land use code 948 and Gross Floor Area to determine the average daily trips, indicates an estimated PM peak of 33 trips, and an average 375 daily trips generated by the car wash. The site plan indicates that two access points are proposed. P. Burnette Handwritten Minutes, November 16, 2023, Page 12 of 33 V. NEW BUSINESS ITEM B CONTINUED • Access is provided by a cross -access easement on the eastern property boundary, providing through -access to the adjacent property, which connects to proposed NE 13t" Ave. • Direct access to SR-70 is proposed. One item of note is that one of the vehicle entry lanes is proposed at only 8.8 ft wide. The other two lanes are 9' and 10.2' wide. While 8.8' is a fairly narrow lane, it is not a city code compliance issue, and the travel speed should be low as vehicles approach the menu boards. Additionally, the applicant has provided a queuing analysis with the special exception application. The analysis demonstrates that the site contains sufficient vehicle stacking capacity to accommodate peak demand without causing vehicle stacking to exceed the boundaries of the site. Sufficiency of fire truck access and egress to be addressed by the Fire Department No Loading zones are required, and none are proposed. The site plan depicts a dumpster within a 10'x12' enclosure with direct access via the cross -access easement/roadway on the north side of the site. Sufficiency of the dumpster enclosure and location will be addressed by Okeechobee Public Works department. The subject property is located in an area of the City with existing commercial uses along SR-70, which is considered one of the City's commercial corridors and is located within a recently platted commercial park where other commercial uses are anticipated. The carwash will provide a consumer service along SR-70, a Major Arterial roadway. The proposed use is consistent with the comprehensive plan and the zoning code, contingent on approval of the concurrent Special Exception Application, and is compatible with surrounding uses. P.
