BACKGROUND The Lintco Development property consists of 12 parcels totaling 7.08 acres. All of the pazcels aze undeveloped. The parcels were annexed to the City of Delray Beach on October 11, 1988 via City Ordinance Number 115-88. On December 6, 2005, the City Commission approved Ordinance Number 56-05, which changed the Future Land Use Map (FLUM) designation from RDA-3 (Redevelopment Area-3) to MD (Multiple Family Residential) for the parcels. Also on December 6, 2005, the City Commission approved Ordinance Number 60-OS which changed the zoning from R-1-A (Single Family Residential) to RM (Multiple Family Residential). Along with the rezoning, the City is also processing a concurrent FLUM (Future Land Use Map) amendment from MD (Residential Medium Density 5-12 du/ac) to GC (General Commercial), and a separate Comprehensive Plan text amendment to change the description of the General Commercial Land Use designation to create an overlay district with decreased commercial intensity on the property. While a maximum Floor Area Ratio of 3.0 is currently permitted for nonresidential uses in the General Commercial designation, within the overlay district, the maximum intensity for nonresidential uses will be limited to an FAR of 0.36. The FLUM and text amendments, which are part of Comprehensive Plan Amendment 2010-1, will be considered at second reading by the City Commission on December 14, 2010. A full analysis of the proposed rezoning is provided in the attached Planning and Zoning Boazd staff report. http://itwebapp/AgendaIntranet/Bluesheet.aspx?ItemID=4010&MeetingID=309 12/7/2010 Coversheet Page 2 of 2 REVIEW BY OTHERS The Planning and Zoning Board held its public hearing regarding the rezoning and FLUM amendment on July 19, 2010.

The item before the Board is that of making a recommendation to the City Commission on a proposed Future Land Use Map Amendment from MD (Residential Medium Density 5-12 du/ac) to GC (General Commercial) and a proposed zoning change from RM (Medium Density Residential) to GC (General Commercial) for twelve (12) individual and contiguous properties. All twelve (12) of the subject properties are vacant and visible from Linton Boulevard, which is a major thoroughfare serving the City of Delray Beach. Although there is a condominium development north of these properties, it is bordered on the east and south by commercial uses. To the west, there is a single family residence and a fire station. The proposed changes seek to apply future land use and zoning designations which are more consistent with the prevailing commercial development along Linton Boulevard. The subject properties are located in a Subdivision of Section 20, Township 46 and Range 43, according to the public records of Palm Beach County, as recorded in Plat Book 1, Pages 4 and 5 on March 25, 1910. The twelve parcels total approximately 7.08 acres in size and are currently undeveloped. The parcels were annexed to the City of Delray Beach on October 11, 1988 via City Ordinance Number 115-88. On December 6, 2005, the City Commission approved Ordinance Number 56-05, which changed the Future Land Use Map (PLUM) designation from RDA-3 (Redevelopment Area-3) to MD (Multiple Family Residential) for the parcels. Also on December 6, 2005, the City Commission approved Ordinance Number 60-05 which changed the zoning from R-1-A (Single Family Residential) to RM (Multiple Family Residential). The Future Land Use Map (PLUM) amendment is being processed as a part of Comprehensive Plan Amendment 2010-1. Plan Amendment, including text and map changes, was initiated by the Plarning and Zoning Board on June 21, 2010 and by the City Commission on July 6, 2010. Action on this amendment by the Planning and Zoning Board is scheduled for July 19, 2010. The City Commission transmittal hearing is scheduled for Tuesday, August 3, 2010. Adoption of Comprehensive Plan amendment 2010-1 is scheduled for October 5, 2010, or for December 7, 2010 if an ORC (Objection, Response and Comments) Report is issued by the State. On June 4, 2010, Lintco, LLC requested a land use map amendment to change the Future Land Use Map designation from MD to GC and to change the zoning from RM to GC for the subject twelve parcels, which is now before the Board for consideration. - ~-`C ,7t.~$ ~>r-N t~ xrs I~ ~i>~~ =~lur~ t~ r~nA-~1~~' A~t~~X~l--~_ Current Land Use Desianation: The current Future Land Use Map designation for the property is MD (Residential Medium Density 5-12 du/ac). ' Requested Land Use Desianation: The requested Future Land Use Designation is to GC (General Commercial). The Future Land Use Map amendment is being processed concurrently with an associated Comprehensive Plan text amendment to modify the description of the General Commercial designation to limit nonresidential development on the property to a maximum FAR of 0.36. A maximum Floor Area Ratio of 3.0 is currently permitted for nonresidential uses in the General Commercial designation. Planning 8 Zoning Board Stall Report-July 19, 2010 Linton at 551 Linton Boulevard -Rezoning and FLUM Amendment to the Comprehensive Plan Page 2 REQUIRED FINDINGS LAND DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS CHAPTER 3 -PERFORMANCE STANDARDS: Pursuant to LDR Section 3.1.7, prior to approval of Land Use applications, certain findings must be made in a form which is part of the official record. This may be achieved through information on the application, written materials submitted by the applicant, the staff report, or minutes. Findings shall be made by the body which has the authority to approve or deny the development application. These findings relate to the Future Land Use Map (FLUM), Concurrency, Comprehensive Plan Consistency, and Compliance with the Land Development Regulations. ^ Future Land Use Maa: The resulting use of land or structures must be allowed in the zoning district within which the land is situated and said zoning must be consistent with the applicable land use designation as shown on the Future Land Use Map- The Future Land Use Map Amendment request is to change the existing MD (Residential Medium Density 5-12 du/ac) designation to GC (General Commercial). The General Commercial FLUM designation, as defined in the Comprehensive Plan, is applied to land which is, or should be, developed for general commercial purposes (i.e. retail, office, services). A maximum Floor Area Ratio of 3.0 is permitted for nonresidential uses. A maximum Floor Area Ratio of 0.36, which is being proposed for the subject property, will be accomplished through a Comprehensive Plan text amendment modifying the description of the General Commercial designation. As noted above, this text amendment is being processed concurrently with the FLUM and Rezoning change requests. The proposed change is to accommodate General Commercial uses for future development of the vacant land. The proposed GC (General Commercial) zoning, in combination with the proposed GC (General Commercial) FLUM designation may allow for the best and highest use of the property. Development under the proposed zoning and land use designation would be more in line with existing developments along Linton Boulevard. The existing RM (Multiple Family Residential) zoning accompanied with the existing MD (Medium Density Residential) FLUM designation does not allow commercial uses. The GC (General Commercial) zoning allows more flexibility in the development of the property. A commercial or mixed-use development would be more appropriate on a highly commercialized corridor like Linton Boulevard. ^ Concurrency: .Development at the highest intensity possible under the requested designation can meet the adopted concurrency standards. Concurrency as defined pursuant to Objective a-2 of the Future Land Use Element of the Comprehensive Plan must be met and a determination made that the public facility needs (including public schools), of the requested land use and/or development application, will not exceed the ability of the City and The School District of Palm Beach County to fund and provide, or to require the provision of needed capital improvements to maintain the Levels of Service Standards established in Table CI-GOP-1 of the adopted Comprehensive Plan of the City of Delray Beach. The 7.08 acres within the proposed Lintco Development site has a current Future Land Use designation of MD (Residential Medium Density 5-12 du/acre). The Future Land Use Map amendment is being processed to change the FLUM designation to GC (General Commercial) and a Comprehensive Plan Text Amendment is being processed concurrently to allow mixed-use development on the property at a nonresidential intensity lower than that currently allowed within Planning & Zoning Board Staff Rapon -July 19, 2010 Lintco at 551 Linton Boulevard -Rezoning and FLUM Amendment to the Comprehensive Plan Page 3 the GC designation. The maximum intensity for nonresidential uses within the proposed overlay district will be set at an FAR of 0.36. The concurrency analysis assumes development of the entire property within the proposed overlay district at the maximum intensity allowed under the amended description for the General Commercial designation. As shown on the following table, development under this provision would result in the addition of nonresidential development potential where none now exists. The maximum development potential with the proposed amendment would be a mixed-use project with residential development at 12 units per acre and retail development at a maximum FAR of 0.36. A comparative analysis of the maximum development potential of the property has been provided below.

The entire Kimley-Horn Traffic Impact Analysis is attached as Support Document #8 within the Comprehensive Plan Amendment Report. As shown on the following table from the analysis, the new maximum land use mix will represent a net increase in potential traffic volumes. Analyses were conducted for each of the three planning horizons-existing (2009), short-term (2015) and long-term (2035). In the Conclusion Section on page 17 of the Report, the consultant indicates that based on the analyses within this study, the future land use map amendment is expected to continue to allow the significanHy impacted roadways to operate acceptably upon build-out of the development site."

The geographic service area coincides with the Planning Area plus service provided to the Town of Gulf Stream through contract as a bulk wstomer. The service area encompasses approximately 18 square miles. The treatment plant, with a capacity of 28 million gallons per day, was constructed in 1972 and has a programmed life of 50 years (2022). The water supply is provided from 30 active wells in four wellfields, yielding a total design capacity of 37.2 mgd. The City's consumptive use permit currently limits the annual withdraw rate to 6.937 billion gallons which equates to an average of 19 mgd. Water demand projections for the City's Water Service Area were calculated based on the City's population projections multiplied by the projected per capita demands. Potable water demand projections, credits for the use of reclaimed water and the total excess/deficd for the years 2010 through 2030 are given in the following table. The City's Utilities Department has indicated that adequate capacity exists to service the subject property at its maximum development potential with the FLUM Amendment and associated text amendment, which limits the maximum nonresidential FAR to 0.36.

Wastewater from the City is treated at the South County Regional Wastewater Treatment Plant (SCRWWTP), which is managed by the South Central Regional Wastewater Treatment and Disposal Board, established in 1974 through an agreement between the cities of Delray Beach and Boynton Beach. The SCRWWTP has the capacity to provide up to 24 mgd of reclaimed- quality water. In 2003, the City developed a Reclaimed Water Master Plan, which identified 16 areas for reclaimed water application. The City is currently using reclaimed water to irrigate several golf courses and is installing additional transmission lines to serve other large users. Through the use of reclaimed water, the City's 20-Year Water Supply Facilities Work Plan Planning & Zoning Board Staff Report -July 19, 2010 Lintoo at 551 Linton Boulevard -Rezoning and FLUM Amendment to the Comprehensive Plan Page 5 indicates that water supply facilities are planned and will be available to meet the future growth and water demands of the City of Delray Beach through the year 2030. The wastewater treatment plant was constructed in 1979, with a programmed life of 50 years (2029). Ultimate disposal is currently by ocean discharge of secondary effluent and land spreading of sludge. In late 2008, deep well injection replaced the ocean discharge except for emergency situations and DEP permitted exceptions. Also in late 2008, with completion of the Palm Beach County Biosolids Pelletization facility, land spreading of sludge is longer being used. The design capacity of the treatment plant, established by its secondary treatment capacity, is 24 mgd. This capacity is shared equally between Boynton Beach and Delray Beach. The current plant has adequate capacity to service the City's projected population beyond the year 2025. The City's Utilities Department has indicated that adequate wastewater treatment capacity exists to service the subject property at its maximum development potential with the FLUM amendment and associated text amendment, which limits the maximum nonresidential FAR to 0.36. Since adequate capacity is available in the City's water and wastewater systems to meet the increased demand, the proposed FLUM amendment will not impact the level of service standard for these facilities. Drainaae• The adopted LOS standards for drainage is the SFWMD standard of retention of the first one inch of runoff or 2.5 inches of water storage times the percentage of impervious area. Local and City- wide drainage deficiencies are identified in the Stormwater Master Plan (Kimley-Horn, 2000). The City has prograrmed projects to correct the deficiencies identified in this report and achieve the Level of Service standard. Public Facilities Element Objective E-1 states: A capital improvement program directed spec~cally to storm drainage and runoff management has been adopted by the City Commission, and capital projects, as ident~ed in that program, shall be implemented with funding to come from the Stormwater Utility Fee. Drainage is reviewed during the site plan application process for individual projects. Within this area of the City, drainage is usually accommodated on site via exfiltration trench systems or swale retention areas. There are no problems anticipated with obtaining South Florida Water Management District permits within the area and any additional impacts caused by increased impervious area will not affect the level of service standard. Parks 8 Recreation The Open Space and Recreation Element of the City's Comprehensive Plan indicates in its conclusion that:"The City will have sufficient recreation facilities at build-out to meet the adopted standards," The LOS standard for open space and recreation in the city is 3 acres per 1,000 residents. The amount of land currently provided in activity based recreation facilities, the municipal beaches, and the two public golf courses, establishes a level of service of 6.2 acres per 1,000 residents (2007), far exceeding the general guideline. A park impact fee is collected to offset any impacts that new development may have on the City's recreational facilities. Pursuant to LDR Section 5.3.2, a park impact fee of $500.00 per dwelling unit will be collected prior to issuance of a building permit for each residential unit. Since there is no net increase in the residential development potential on this site with the proposed FLUM Amendment and associated text amendment which limits the maximum nonresidential FAR to 0.36, this level of service standard is not affected- Planning 8 Zoning Board Staff Report-July 19, 2010 Lintco at 551 Linton Boulevard -Rezoning and FLUM Amendment to the Comprehensive Plan Page 6 Education (School Concurrence): Since there is no net increase in the residential development potential on this site with the proposed FLUM Amendment and associated text amendment which limits the maximum nonresidential FAR to 0.36, this level of service standard is not affected. Solid Waste: As shown on the following table, with the proposed amendment, the development of the property would result in a nei increase of 566 tons per year in solid waste generation. In its annual capacity letter, dated January 6, 2010, the Solid Waste Authority indicates that it has sufficient capacity for concumency management and comprehensive planning purposes. As stated in the letter, "Capacity is available for both the coming year, and the five and ten year planning periods specified in 9J-5-005(4)." Based on population projections, waste generation rate projections, waste reduction, and recycling, the Solid Waste Authority forecasts that capacity will be available at the existing landfill through approximately the year 2030. The Board of the Solid Waste Authority has authorized the initial design and permitting efforts to develop a new landfill on 1,600 acres owned by the authority. The capacity of this new landfill would extend the I'rfe of the solid waste system beyond the year 2043 or later. Based on the above analysis, positive findings can be made at this time with regard to concurrency for all services and facilities. ^ Consistency: The requested designation is consistent with the goals, objectives and policies of the most recently adopted Comprehensive Plan. The following applicable Comprehensive Plan objective and policies are noted: Future Land Use Element Police A-1.7: Amendments to the FLUM must be based upon the findings listed below, and must be supported by data and analysis that demonstrate compliance with these findings: Demonstrated Need -- That there is a need for the requested land use. The need must be based upon circumstances such as shifts in demographic trends, changes in the availability of land, changes in the existing character and FLUM designations of the surrounding area, fulfillment of a comprehensive plan objective or policy, annexation into the municipal boundaries, or similar circumstances. The need must be supported by data and analysis verifying the changing demographics or other circumstances. This requirement shall not apply to requests for the FLUM designations of Conservation or Recreation and Open Space; nor shall it apply to FLUM changes associated with annexations when the City's Advisory FLUM designation is being applied, or when the requested designation is of a similar intensity to the Advisory designation. However, the findings described in the remainder of this policy must be addressed with all FLUM amendments. The requested GC FLUM designation will allow commercial uses, whereas only residential uses are currently allowed on the subject parcels. The proposed land use map change is more consistent Table 3: Solid Waste Generation Lintco Development Overlay District Planning 8 Zoning Board Staff Report-July 19, 2010 Lintoo at 551 Linton Boulevard -Rezoning and FLUM Amendment to the Comprehensive Plan Page 7 with the existing character of the commercial nature of Linton Boulevard. These circumstances demonstrate a need for the requested zoning and FLUM change. Future Land Use Element Objective A-1: Property shall be developed or redeveloped, in a manner so that the future use, intensity and density are appropriate in terms of soil, topographic, and other applicable physical considerations; encourage affordable goods and services; arse complementary fo and compatible with adjacent land uses; and fulfill remaining land use needs. There are no significant environmental characteristics to the subject property. The existing use of the property is vacant land. In the absence of a specific use, it is currently compatible with the adjacent land uses, which consists of commercial to the east, retail to the south, and residential to the north and west. However, the proposed commercial use may have some compatibility concerns with the residentially zoned properties to the west and north. To mitigate these concerns landscaping, berms or privacy walls will be installed per Code requirements. This shall be more spec~cally addressed upon the official submittal of a development proposal during site plan review. ^ Compliance with LDRs: Development under the requested designation will comply with the provisions and. requirements of the Land Development Regulations. Whenever an item is identified elsewhere in these Land Development Regulations (LDRs), it shall specifically be addressed by the body taking final action on a land development applicatioNrequest. Such items are found in Section 2.4.5 and in special regulation portions of individual zoning district regulations. At this time, no physical improvements are proposed. If and when improvements are made, a site plan review will be required. No concerns meeting the LDR requirements are anticipated. ^ Compatibility: The requested designation will be compatible with the existing and future land uses of the surrounding area. As demonstrated in the following "Rezoning Analysis" section, the requested GC (General Commercial) zoning and FLUM designation will be compatible with existing and future land uses of the surrounding area. Future Land Use Map Consistency, Concurrency, Comprehensive Plan Consistency and Compliance with the development criteria of the LDR were previously discussed under the "Future Land Use Map Amendment Ana/ysis" section of this report. Compliance with the Land Development Regulations with respect to Standards for Rezoning Actions and Rezoning Findings are discussed below, Section 3.2.2 (Standards for Rezoning Actions): Standards "A", "B", "C", and "E" are not applicable with respect to this rezoning request. Standard "D" requires that the rezoning shall result in allowing land uses which are deemed compatible with adjacent and nearby land use both existing and proposed; or that if an incompatibility may occur, that sufficient regulations exist to properly mitigate adverse impacts from the new use. LAND USE ANALYSIS: Existing land uses Subject Property - Residential (Zoning District: RM; FLUM: MD) North -Residential (Zoning District: RM; FLUM: MD) South -Retail (Zoning District: PC; FLUM: GC) Planning ti Zoning Board Staff Report-July 19, 2010 Linton at 551 Linton Boulevard -Rezoning and FLUM Amendment to the Comprehensive Plan Page 8 East -Commercial (Zoning District: M1C & POD; FLUM: CMR 8 TRN) West -Residential (Zoning District: R-1-A & CF; FLUM: MD & CF) Proposed land uses Subject Property-Commercial (Zoning District: GC; FLUM: GC) North -Residential (Zoning District: RM; FLUM: MD) South -Retail (Zoning District: PC; FLUM: GC) East -Commercial (Zoning District: MIC 8 POD; FLUM: CMR &TRN) West -Residential (Zoning District: R-1-A 8 CF; FLUM: MD & CF) The subject property is bordered on the north and west by residential properties zoned for residential use which are compatible with the existing zoning of this property. However, with the rezoning to commercial use, there will need to be adequate buffering by means of a wall, barrier or landscape buffer to mitigate any potential negative impacts. Nonetheless, with the current use remaining vacant, there are no immediate reasons for concern. Future development of the property for commercial use or mixed-use, if granted, will need to take necessary measures to mitigate any potential negative impact on adjacent residential uses. Across SW 4s' Avenue to the east is a compatible commercial use (Security Self Storage). Likewise, the existing medical offices to the east are a compatible commercial use. Across Linton Boulevard to the south are compatible retail and commercial uses (New Century Commons). It is noted that the proposed Future Land Use Designation of GC (General Commercial) is shared with the existing retail shopping center to the south. Based upon the above, this request does not result in an incompatible land use, thus, the proposed development can be found to be in compliance with LDR Section 3.2.2 (D). Section 2.4.5 (D) (5) (Rezoning Findings): Pursuant to Section 2.4.5 (D) (5), Pursuant to LDR Section 2.4.5(D)(5}, in addition to provisions of Chapter Three, the City Commission must make a finding that the rezoning fulfills one of the reasons for which the rezoning change is being sought. These reasons include the following: (a) That the zoning had previously been changed, or was originally established, in error; (b) That there has been a change in circumstances which make the current zoning inappropriate; or (c) That the requested zoning is of similar intensity as allowed under the Future Land Use Map and that it is more appropriate for the property based upon circumstances particular to the site andlor neighborhogd: The basis for which the rezoning should be granted, relates to the item (c) above, indicating that the requested zoning of GC is of similar intensity as allowed under the proposed Future Land Use Map Designation of GC which is also being requested. A GC zoning designation is more appropriate for the property given its location along a major east-west commercialized thoroughfare. Because of its location, the parcel would better serve the needs of the general public as a commercial use. Future development of the property as commercial or mixed use will deem it necessary to mitigate potential negative effects on adjacent residential properties. The condominium development to the north is internally positioned on SW 4r' Avenue and bordered by walls on Planning 8 Zoning Board Staff Report -July 19, 2010 Llnico at 551 Llnton Boulevard -Rezoning and FLUM Amendment to the Comprehensive Plan Page 9 all sides so it will be minimally affected by anticipated commercial development of the subject property. The single family residence to the west is abutted by a fire station to its west which further brings to question its appropriateness as an isolated residential use along Linton Boulevard. Under these circumstances the rezoning to GC is more appropriate. Based upon these positive findings, the proposed development is in compliance with LDR Section 2.4.5(D)(5). The proposed rezoning is not in a geographic area requiring review by either the Historic Preservation Board (HPB), Downtown Development Authority (DDA), or the Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA). Courtesy Notices: A special courtesy notice was provided to the following homeowners associations: • Neighborhood Advisory Council Southridge • Progressive Residents Of Delray (PROD) • Southridge Village • Linton Ridge The Vinings IPARC Notice: On July 9, 2010, notice of the Future Land Use Amendment was provided to the Interlocal Plan Amendment Review Committee (IPARC) which distributes the information to adjacent municipalities. No objections have been received to date. Public Notices: Formal public notice has been provided to property owners within a 500' radius of the subject property. Letters of objection and/or support, if any, will ~be presented at the Planning and Zoning Board meeting. Positive findings can be made with respect to LDR Section 3.1.1 (Required Findings), LDR Section 3.2.2 (Standards for Rezoning Actions), LDR Section 2.4.5(D)(5) (Rezoning Findings}, and the Goals, Objectives, and Policies of the Comprehensive Plan. Therefore, rezoning of the subject property from RM to GC, and a FLUM amendment from MD to GC, can be recommended for approval, based on the findings outlined herein. A. Move a recommendation of approval to the City Commission for the request for rezoning from RM (Medium Density Residential) to GC (General Commercial) and a Future Land Use Map amendment from MD (Residential Medium Density 5-12 du/ac) to GC (General Commercial) for the subject property, by adopting the findings of fact and law contained in the staff report, and finding that the request and approval thereof is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan, and meets the criteria set forth in Sections 2.4.5(D)(5), 3.1.1 and 3.2.2 of the Land Development Regulations. B. Move a recommendation of denial to the City Commission for the request for rezoning from RM (Medium Density Residential) to GC (General Commercial) and a Future Land Use Map amendment from MD (Residential Medium Density 5-12 du/ac) to GC (General Commercial), by adopting the findings of fact and law contained in the staff report, and finding that the request is inconsistent with the Comprehensive Plan, and does not meet the criteria set forth in Sections 2.4.5(D)(5), 3.1.1 and 3.2.2 of the Land Development Regulations. Planning 8 Zoning Board Staff Report-July 19, 2010 Lintco at 551 Linton Boulevard -Rezoning and FLUM Amendment to the Comprehensive Plan Page 10 C. Move to postpone a recommendation of approval or denial in order to continue reviewing the request for rezoning from RM (Medium Density Residential) to GC (General Commercial) and a Future Land Use Map amendment from MD (Residential Medium Density 5-12 du/ac) to GC (General Commercial) for the subject property with direction. Staff recommends that the Planning and Zoning Board move to recommend approval to the City Commission for the request for rezoning from RM (Medium Density Residential) to GC (General Commercial) and a Future Land Use Map amendment from MD (Residential Medium Density 5-12 du/ac) to GC (General Commercial) for the subject property, by adopting the findings of fact and law contained in the staff report, and finding that the request and approval thereof is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan, and meets the criteria set forth in Sections 2.4.5(D)(5), 3.1.1 and 3.2.2 of the Land Development Regulations.
