Good Morning Ms. Janet.
This email is to officially advise you that the Board of Adjustment at its regular meeting on July 20, 2023,
approved Special Exception Petition No. 23-003-SE which requests to allow a car wash in a Heavy
Commercial Zoning District, (Ref. Code Sec. 90-283(2)), located at 507 Northeast (NE) Park Street as the
Applicant would like to re -open the self-service car wash in the existing building, with the following
conditions: ADA parking space previously provided in the front of the building shall remain, a second
parking space located in the rear portion of the site, meeting the requirements of the Land Development
Regulations (LDR), will be formally designated and lined, and not more than 300 feet of floor area of the
building will be used as an office, or any other use except for storage of materials or equipment related to
operation of the car wash, unless additional parking is provided to accommodate such use in accordance
with the off-street parking requirements of the LDR.
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 July 20, 2023, Meeting is attached for your
information. Should you have any questions, please let me know.

Special Exception
Staff Report
Description of Request and Existing Conditions
July 10, 2023
Petition No. 23-003-SE
The request for consideration by the City of Okeechobee Board of Adjustment is a Special Exception for a
self-service carwash with four (4) wash tunnels. The proposed use will occupy a 0.325-acre parcel, which
is located at 507 NE Park Street, fronting S.R. 70 to the south and NE 6th Avenue to the east. The subject
property was previously approved for the special exception use of a self-service carwash, via Petition 11-
002-SE, however the carwash operations ceased for period of at least 180 days, causing the special
exception use approval to lapse. Due to that inactivity, continuation of the carwash requires a new special
exception approval. It is the intention of the Applicant to re -open the carwash and occupy the existing
structure.
Review of previously approved application 11-002-SE and the associated staff report indicate that
application was also submitted in order to renew a previous carwash special exception approval that had
lapsed due to discontinuation of the use. The available property appraiser records indicate the existing
structure was built in 2003. The staff report and meeting minutes from the Board of Adjustment's special
exception hearing indicate that the request was approved with two conditions related to parking. The
report indicates that only one parking space was provided on -site, which was striped and reserved for
ADA accessibility in front of the building. The staff report noted that the 825 square feet upstairs area of
the structure would be used for a small office, but mostly for storage. Based on the applicable off-street
parking requirements (which have not changed since 2011), approval of the request was recommended
with two conditions:
1. A second parking space located in the rear portion of the site, meeting the requirements of the
LDC, will be formally designated and lined.
2. The approval of the requested special exception is based on the fact that not more than 300 feet
of floor area of the building will be used as an office, or any other use except for storage of
materials or equipment related to operation of the carwash, unless additional parking is provided
to accommodate such use in accordance with the off-street parking requirements of the LDC.
The survey that was submitted with this application does not depict any designated parking spaces,
outside of the wash and vacuum stalls.

Special Exception
Staff Report
Consistency with LDC Section 70-373
July 10, 2023
Petition No. 23-003-SE
City LDC Section 70-373(b) requires that applicants for special exception requests must address the
following standards. The applicant has submitted responses to each standard, which are provided un-
edited below. Staff comments are also provided in response to the standards and the applicant's
responses.
(1) Demonstrate that the proposed location and site is appropriate for the use.
Applicant Response: The site was a self-service car wash.
Staff Comments: The subject property is located with direct frontage on SR-70, a major
commercial corridor within the City, and with direct access to NE 6tn Ave. The property is zoned
Heavy Commercial (CHV) and designated Commercial on the Future Land Use Map. The
surrounding existing uses, zoning, and future land use designations are all commercial. The
existing structure has operated as a self-service carwash previously, though with at least two
interruptions in use, potentially since 2003. A carwash has operated at this location for many
years and this location continues to be appropriate for that use.
(2) Demonstrate how the site and proposed buildings have been designed so they are compatible
with the adjacent uses and the neighborhood.
Applicant Response: The carwash adds convenience to the new and existing business and patrons.
Staff Comments: The building and use are compatible with surrounding uses. No changes are
proposed, and no changes are necessary.
(3) Demonstrate any landscaping techniques to visually screen the use from adjacent uses.
Applicant Response: Not necessary. The business in surrounding area all coordinate with car wash
business.
Staff Comments: The subject property has existing landscaping that presumably met the
requirements at the time the site was developed. No additional screening for the adjacent
commercial uses should be necessary.
(4) Demonstrate what is proposed to reduce the impact of any potential hazards, problems or public
nuisance generated by the use.
Applicant Response: Existing car wash. No known hazards or issues.
Staff Comments: The subject property is developed with an existing self-service carwash facility,
which was previously in use for many years and staff is not aware of any problems that have
occurred during the previous operations.
(5) Demonstrate how the utilities and other service requirements of the use can be met.
Applicant Response: All utilities and services were in use prior. No issues.
CITY OF OKEECHOBEE MORRIS,
DEPEW
Special Exception
Staff Report
July 10, 2023
Petition No. 23-003-SE
Staff Comments: The subject property has existing sanitary sewer and potable water
connections, and the availability of adequate capacity was considered at the time the previous
special exception request was approved.
(6) Demonstrate how the impact of traffic generated will be handled, off site and on site.
Applicant Response: Traffic plan attached.
Staff Comments: A Traffic Impact Statement has not been included in the application package.
However, there is no reason to believe that allowing the previous operations to resume will
result in greater traffic than was contemplated when the use was originally approved.
Additionally, the access to both NE 6th Ave and SR-70 provides for adequate ingress/egress as
well as interior circulation.
City LDC Section 70-373(c) provides a list of findings that the Board of Adjustment must address in its
determination to approve the request, deny the request, or approve the request with conditions. The
applicant has submitted responses to each finding, which are provided un-edited below. Staff comments
are also provided in response to the findings and the applicant's responses.
(1) The use is not contrary to comprehensive plan requirements.
Applicant Response: Existing approved carwash to operate as previously approved.
Staff Comments: The Okeechobee Comprehensive Plan does not contain any policies which
would prohibit the requested use. The proposed use is consistent with the Commercial Future
Land Use Category, as described within the Comprehensive Plan.
(2) The use is specifically authorized as a special exception use in the zoning district.
Applicant Response: Existing car wash.
Staff Comments: The use is specifically authorized as a special exception use in the CHV district,
as stated in LDC Section 90-283(2).
(3) The use will not have an adverse effect on the public interest.
Applicant Response: No.
Staff Comments: The proposed use will provide a service to those traveling along SR-70, in
addition to the surrounding community. The property has operated as a carwash previously and
it is not expected that re-establishment of the use will create any disturbance or adverse effects
on the public interest.
CITY OF OKEECHOBEE MORRIS
DEPEW
Special Exception
Staff Report
July 10, 2023
Petition No. 23-003-SE
(4) The use is appropriate for the location proposed, is reasonably compatible with adjacent uses,
and is not detrimental to urbanizing land use patterns.
Applicant Response: The use will offer convenience to businesses and patrons on Park Avenue.
Staff Comments: As stated previously, the subject site and location is appropriate for the
proposed use.
(5) The use will not adversely affect property values or living conditions, nor be a deterrent to the
improvement or development of adjacent property.
Applicant Response: No.
Staff Comments: We agree that re-establishment of the carwash use will not adversely affect
property values or living conditions, nor be a deterrent to the improvement or development of
adjacent properties. In fact, the continued vacancy of the property is more likely to lead to
blight than the resumption of operations.
(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: The building and equipment are positioned according to prior car wash
approvals.
Staff Comments: The existing landscaping should be adequate for the resumption of the
carwash use.
(7) The use will not create a density pattern that would overburden public facilities such as schools,
streets, and utility services.
Applicant Response: No.
Staff Comments: The proposed use will not include a residential component. Therefore, no
direct effects on density patterns and public -school facilities are expected. No additional
demands on other services should be expected, other than what was already accommodated
for when the carwash use was originally approved.
(8) The use will not create traffic congestion, flooding or drainage problems, or otherwise affect
public safety.
Applicant Response: No.
Staff Comments: The site has direct access to SR-70, a Principal Arterial Roadway, to the south
and NE 61h Avenue to the east. Ingress/egress and vehicle circulation will occur as it did during
previous operations and trip generation can be expected to be similar to the volumes generated
during previous operations. Additionally, carwashes are likely to generate alternative peak trip
generation periods than most other uses; typically, less generation during the weekday am and
pm periods and greater generation during the weekends. There are no changes proposed to the
site that will affect flooding or drainage. The site has high visibility from the public rights -of -
way and is not likely to cause any concerns related to public safety.

Afternoon Patty,
23-008-TRC: We have communicated with the applicant and are expecting receipt of revised plans by next week.
Regardless of whether they can meet that deadline, we feel that this item can be advertised for TRC and any remaining
issues can be discussed with the Committee.
23-009-TRC: We have reviewed the plat for zoning compliance and find that it generally complies with applicable zoning
requirements and that it is consistent with the site plan that was approved. We are still awaiting technical review of the
plat by our Director of Surveying for conformance with statutory requirements; but feel this item can be advertised for
TRC.
a ';!
23-003-SE: This is ready for advertisement for_TRC as well.
Please let me know if there are any questions or concerns.
Thanks,
Ben

of the List of Surrounding Property Owners
I hereby certify under the penalty of law or the revocation of the requested approval sought that to the best of my
knowledge and belief, the attached list constitutes the complete and accurate list of the property owners,
addresses, and parcel identification numbers of all parcels and tracts within three hundred (300) feet not including
intervening streets, alleys, or waterways, of the perimeter of the lands which are subjects of, or are contiguous to
but held under the same ownership as, the lands subject to the application for a change in land use or zoning, said
list constituting a portion of that application. This affidavit is made based upon an inspection of the tax rolls of the
Property Appraiser of Okeechobee County as of v] Z0 and the
Assertions miade to me by members of that Office that the information reviewed constitutes the most recent
information available to that office. I therefore attest to this day of
