AGENDA ITEM # 'O~ - REGULAR MEETING OF MAY 16. 2006 ORDINANCE NO. 29-06 (AMENDMENT TO LAND DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS SECTION 2.4.3(1\) DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS MATRIX) TO: SUBJECT: DATE: MAY 12, 2006 This ordinance is before Commission for second reading and public hearing for a City initiated amendment to Land Development Regulations (LDR) Section 4.3.4(K), "Development Standards Mattix", to clarify setbacks for structures in residential districts. The increased setbacks currently required for 3-story multi-family structures in the RM (Multiple Family Residential- Medium Density) and PRD (planned Residential Development) zoning districts is to mitigate the visual impact of the additional building mass on surrounding properties. As currently written, there is some confusion as to whether the increased setbacks apply to the entire structure or the third story component only. A building that is only one or two stories in front and 3 stories in the rear does not have the same impact at the front property line as one which is entirely 3 stories high. Similarly, a townhouse structure with 3-story middle units and 2-story end units will have less impact at the side property lines than one which is entirely 3 stories high. The proposed amendment is to clarify this difference and apply the increased set back for 3-story buildings only to those portions of the building which are actually 3 stories in height. On April 17, 2006, the Planning and Zoning Board held a public hearing in conjunction with the amendment. There was no public testimony regarding the proposed amendment. After presentation from the Planning Staff, the Board voted 7-0 to recommend to the City Commission approval of the proposed amendment. Staff recommends approval by adopting the findings of fact and law contained in the staff report; finding that the request is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan; and finding that the request meets the criteria set forth in LDR Section 2.4.5(M) (Amendment to Land Development Regulations). At the first reading on May 2, 2006, the Commission passed Ordinance No. 29-06. Recommend approval of Ordinance No. 29-06 on second and final reading.

ATTEST MAYOR City Clerk First Reading Second Reading 4 ORD. NO. 29-06 PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD MEMORANDUM STAFF REPORT MEETING DATE: APRIL 17, 2006 AGENDA NO.: IV.G. AGENDA ITEM: CONSIDERATION OF A CITY-INITIATED AMENDMENT TO THE LAND DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS SECTION 4.3.4 (K) TO CLARIFY SETBACKS FOR STRUCTURES IN RESIDENTIAL DISTRICTS. ITEM BEFORE THE BOARD The item before the Board is that of making a recommendation to the City Commission regarding a City-initiated amendment to the land Development Regulations Section 4.3.4(K), "Development Standards Matrix," clarifying setbacks for structures in residential zoning districts. Pursuant to Section 1.1.6, an amendment to the text of the land Development Regulations may not be made until a recommendation is obtained from the Planning and Zoning Board. PROPOSED LDR AMENDMENT The City-initiated amendment to the land Development Regulations is being processed to clarify how setbacks are to be measured for multi-story buildings in residential zoning districts. The following footnote has been added to the Development Standards Matrix for Residential Zoning Districts: (7) 1 &2/3 = 1 st & 2nd Story / 3rd Story. The setback for the 3rd story shall be applied only to those portions of the building which are 3 stories in height, not the entire building. ANALYSIS The increased setbacks for 3-story structures in residential districts is to mitigate the visual impact of the additional building mass on surrounding properties. As currently written, there is some confusion as to whether the increased setbacks apply to the entire structure or the third story component only. A building that is only one or two stories in front and 3 stories in the rear does not have the same impact at the front property line as one which is entirely 3 stories high. Similarly, a townhouse structure with 3-story middle units and 2-story end units will have less impact at the side property lines than one which is entirely 3 stories high. The proposed amendment is to clarify this difference and apply the increased setback for 3-story buildings only to those portions of the building which are actually 3 stories in height. LDR Section 2.4.5(MlC5) (Findinas): Pursuant to LDR Section 2.4.5(M)(5) (Findings), in addition to LDR Section 1.1.6(A), the City Commission must make a finding that the text amendment is consistent with and furthers the Goals, Objectives and Policies of the Comprehensive Plan. IV. G. Planning and Zoning Board Memorandum Staff Report, April 17, 2006 Amendment to LDR Section 4.3.4 (K) The Goals, Objectives and Policies of the City's Comprehensive Plan were reviewed and no specific goals objectives or policies were found. The amendment is corrective in nature and while the amendment does not further any specific Goal, Policy or Objectives of the Comprehensive Plan it is not inconsistent with them. REVIEW BY OTHERS Courtesy Notices: Courtesy notices were provided to the following homeowner and civic associations: · Progressive Residents of Delray (PROD) · President's Council Letters of objection and support, if any, will be provided at the Planning and Zoning Board meeting. ASSESSMENT AND CONCLUSION The City-initiated amendment to LDR Section 4.3.4 (K) is corrective in nature. It is being proposed to clear up any confusion with respect to how setbacks are to be measured for structures in residential zoning districts. The proposed amendment is consistent with the Goals, Objectives and Policies of the Comprehensive Plan and does not diminish them. RECOMMENDED ACTION Move to recommend to the City Commission approval of the amendment to Land Development Regulations Section 4.3.4 (K), Development Standard Matrix, by adopting the findings of fact and law contained in the staff report and finding that the request is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and meets criteria set forth in Section 2.4.5(M) of the Land Development Regulations.
