FIRST PUBLIC HEARING & FIRST READING FOR ORDINANCE NO. 28-96
(FARMERS MARKET AS CONDITIONAL USE IN OSSHAD)
DATE: JULY 19, 1996
This is first reading add the first of tw~ required public hearings for
Ordinance No. 28-96 which amends Section 4.4.24(D) of the Land Development
Regulations by adding 'Open Air Farmers Market' as a conditional use in the
Old School S~are Historic Arts District (OSSHAD). It also provides for a
definition of 'Farmers Market' to the definitions appendix of the LDRs.
The proposed text amendment is in response to the Joint Venture's proposal
to have a farmers market in the CRA parking lot across from the community
center/tennis center. It is planned for Saturday mornings during
mid-November through the end of May. The use is proposed as a conditional
use which will provide greater control through review of potential impacts
and application of appropriate conditions. The specific definition of a
' farmers market' is included to clearly differentiate it from a flea market
which would not be appropriate for inclusion in the OSSHAD district.
The Planning and Zoning Board considered the amendments at public hearings
on June 17, 1996 (adding the use) and July 15, 1996 (definition). There
was no public testimony and the Board voted unanimously to recommend
approval.
Recommend approval of Ordinance No. 28-96 on first reading. If passed, a
second public hearing will be scheduled for August 6, 1996.

SUBJECT: MEETING OF JULY 23, 1996 AMENDMENT TO LDR SECTION
4.4.24(D) ADDING "OPEN AIR FARMER'S MARKET" AS A
CONDITIONAL USE WITHIN THE OLD SCHOOL SQUARE HISTORIC
ARTS DISTRICT AND AN AMENDMENT TO THE DEFINITION
SECTION OF THE LDR'S TO ADD A DEFINITION OF "FARMER'S
MARKET".
The action requested of the City Commission is that of aD.Droval of
amendments to LDR Section 4.4.24(D) and the definition section of the
LDR's. The amendments will add "Open Air Farmers Market" as a
conditional use to the OSSAD zoning district and a new definition of
Farmer's Market to the definition section of the LDR's.
The amendments are in response to the Delray Beach Joint Venture request to conduct
a Farmer's Market in the CRA parking lot located between Swinton Avenue and N.W.
1st Avenue, just north of Atlantic Avenue. The event is planned once a week
(Saturdays) during the growing season (approximately 5 1/2 months a year). The
parking lot has a zoning designation of OSSHAD, which currently does not allow
Farmer's Markets as a permitted or conditional use.
The overall intent of allowing the use (Farmer's Market) is to promote revitalization of
the downtown through a mix of uses intended to generate pedestrian activity along
Atlantic Avenue and the adjacent streets. A Farmer's Market in the area will draw a
number of people to the downtown on a regular basis, and is consistent with the City's
City Commission Documentation
Farmer's Market Use and Definition Amendments

plans for redevelopment of the area. Farmer's Markets also evoke a sense of tradition
and community, which are consistent with the preservation theme of the OSSHAD
zoning district. The use is proposed as a conditional use, which will provide greater
control through review of potential impacts and application of appropriate conditions.
In reviewing other municipalities' regulations and how they define farmer's markets,
West Palm Beach and Palm Beach County consider farmer's markets similar to flea
markets. Both governments classify flea markets and similarly farmer's markets as
"outdoor retail sales area in which parcels of land are rented to individual merchants to
display and sell goods". The City of Delray Beach's definition of flea markets is listed
as "A market, usually in the open air, selling antiques, used household goods, curios,
or the like".
Flea markets will not promote revitalization of downtown nor evoke a sense of tradition
and community. Therefore, flea markets are not allowed, nor are they desired in the
OSSHAD district. To dispel any confusion between the types of uses a specific
definition of a "farmer's market" is required. The attached definition meets this
requirement.
The Planning and Zoning Board considered the requests at public hearings on June 17,
1996 (adding the use) and July 15,1996 (definition). No one from the public spoke for,
or against the proposal. The Planning and Zoning Board recommended approval to
add the conditional use on a unanimous 7-0 vote and to add the definition on a 6-0
vote (Carolyn Young absent).
By Motion, approve Ordinance No. 28-96 to LDR Section 4.4.24(D) adding "Open Air
Farmer's Market" as a conditional use to the OSSAD zoning district and adding a
definition of "Farmers Market" to the definition section of the LDR's.

MEETING OF: July '15, 1996
AGENDA ITEM: V.D. AMENDMENT TO THE DEFINITION SECTION OF THE
LDR'S TO ADD A DEFINITION OF "FARMER'S MARKET".
The item before the Board is that of making a recommendation to the City Commission
regarding an amendment to the definitions, within the LDR's to add a definition of
"Farmer's Market".
On June 10 ,1996 at a special meeting the Planning and Zoning Board initiated an
amendment to allow the farmer's market use in the OSSHAD (Old School Square
Historic Arts District). On June 17, 1996 the Planning and Zoning Board recommended
to add the use to the OSSHAD district. The amendment is scheduled for consideration
by City Commission on July 23, 1996. The amendment was in response to the Delray
Beach Joint Venture's request to conduct a Farmer's Market in the CRA parking lot
located between Swinton Avenue and NVV 1st Avenue, just north of Atlantic Avenue.
The event is planned once a week (Saturdays) during the growing season
(approximately 5 1/2 months a year). The parking lot has a zoning designation of
OSSHAD, which currently does not allow Farmer's Markets as a permitted or
conditional use.
In processing the aforementioned request it was apparent that a specific definition was
needed to assure that the proper mix of uses would result. In addition a clear definition
is required to appropriately restrict other non desirable yet somewhat similar uses i.e.
flea markets.
The overall intent of allowing the use (Farmer's Market) is to promote revitalization of
the downtown through a mix of uses intended to generate pedestrian activity along
Atlantic Avenue and the adjacent-streets. A Farmer's Market in the area will draw a
number of people to the downtown on a regular basis, and is consistent with the City's
plans for redevelopment of the area. Farmer's Markets also evoke a sense of tradition
and community, which are consistent with the preservation theme of the OSSHAD
zoning district. The use is proposed as a conditional use, which will provide greater
control through review of potential impacts and application of appropriate conditions.

The item before the Board is that of making a recommendation to the Gi~
Commission regarding an amendment to Section 4.4.24(D) of the Land
Development Regulations (Conditional Uses in the Old School Square Historic
A~s District).
The Downtown Joint Venture wishes to conduct a Fa~er's Manet in the C~
parking lot located be~een Swinton Avenue and N.W. 1st Avenue, just nodh of
Atlantic Avenue. The event is planned on~ a week (Saturdays) during the

zoning designation of OSSHAD (Old School Square Historic Ads District), which
does not allow Farmer's Markets as a permiRed or conditional use.
Pumuant to LDR Section 2.4.4(A), an amendment to the Land Development
Regulations may be initiated by the either the Planning and Zoning Board or City
Commission. The Planning and Zoning Board initiated this amendment at their
June 10, 1996 special meeting.

A Farmer's Market would be allowed as a conditional use in the CBD (Central
Business District) zoning, which has similar characteristics to OSSHAD. Both
districts promote revitalization of the downtown through a mix of uses intended to
generate pedestrian activity along Atlantic Avenue and the adjacent streets. A
Farmer's Market in the area will draw a number of people to the downtown on a
regular basis, and is consistent with the Ci~'s plans for redevelopment of the
ama. Farmer's Markets also evoke a sense of tradition and communi~, which
are consistent with the pmse~ation theme of the OSSHAD zoning district. The
use is proposed as a conditional use, which will provide greater control through
