THRU:
FROM:
On August 22, 1989, the subject property was annexed with a GC zoning designation as part of
the North Federal Highway annexations via Ordinance 43-89. On July 25, 2001 the Site Plan
Review and Appearance Board approved a Class V site plan, landscape and architectural
elevations for Delray Cycle (a retail shop selling motorcycle parts and accessories) on the 0.78
acre parcel fronting Dixie Highway. The facility was constructed and has been operating since.
At its meeting of February 26, 2007, the Planning and Zoning Board held a public hearing to
consider a rezoning request from GC (General Commercial) to AC (Automotive Commercial).
The rezoning is being sought to convert a portion of the existing building from retail sales
(motorcycle parts) to motorcycle sales and motorcycle repair. A separate Conditional Use
request is being processed to allow the repair aspects of this operation.
.;
At its meeting of February 26, 2007, the Planning and Zoning Board held a public hearing in
conjunction with the AC rezoning request. No one from the public spoke either in support or
opposition to the request. After reviewing the staff report and discussing the proposal, the Board
voted 4-0 (Joe Pike stepped down) to recommend approval of the rezoning request to the City
Commission, 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 the criteria set forth in
Sections 3.1.1, 3.2.2, and 2.4.5(D)(5) of the Land Development Regulations.
Approve on first reading Ordinance 9-07 for a rezoning from GC (General Commercial) to AC

GENERAL DATA:
N
Ive.
The action before the Board is that of making a recommendation to the City Commission on a
privately-initiated rezoning from GC (General Commercial) to AC (Automotive Commercial), for
Delray Cycle pursuant to LDR Section 2.4.5(D).
The subject property is located at 2455 N. Old Dixie Highway, in Delray Beach, approximately
1,250 feet south of Gulfstream Boulevard.
Pursuant to Section 2.2.2(E) (6) of the Land Development Regulations, the Planning and Zoning
Board shall review and make a recommendation to the City Commission with respect to the
rezoning of any property within the City.
The subject property involves the west portion of Lots 6, 7 & 8, Delray Beach Estates
Subdivision, and contains. 78 acres. The subject property is a portion of an overall 2.35 acre
property containing an existing commercial building with associated parking, which is currently
occupied by Badcock Furniture. The western portion of the site was subdivided into a separate
0.78 acre site for Delray Cycle, a retail motorcycle accessory store.
On August 22, 1989, the subject property was annexed with a GC zoning designation as part of
the North Federal Highway annexations via Ordinance 43-89. The western portion of the site
was subdivided into a separate 0.78 acre site for Delray Cycle. On July 25, 2001 The Site Plan
Review and Appearance Board approved the Class V site plan, landscape and architectural
elevations for Delray Cycle (a retail shop selling motorcycle parts and accessories).
A rezoning request has been submitted by Miller Land Planning Consultants for a rezoning of
the property from GC (General Commercial to (AC) Automotive Commercial to allow motorcycle
sales and motorcycle repairs as part of their operation. The repair aspect of the request is being
considered at a conditional use application on the same agenda.
This rezoning request, is now before the Planning and Zoning Board for action.
The proposal is to change the zoning designation of the property from GC (General
Commercial) to AC (Automotive Commercial). Pursuant to the LDR Section 4.4.10(B), within
the AC zone district, the sale, lease, or rental of motorcycles is a permitted use and repair
facilities are allowed as a conditional use. As vehicle repair and motorcycle sales are not
allowed uses under the GC zoning designation, a rezoning to AC is being requested.
REQUIRED FINDINGS: (Chapter 3)
Pursuant to Section 3.1.1 (Required Findings), prior to the approval of development
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, 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,
P & Z Staff Report - Meeting Date: 02126/07
Delray Cycle Rezoning - GC to AC
Page 2
Concurrency, Comprehensive Plan Consistency and Compliance with the Land
Development Regulations.
FUTURE LAND USE MAP: 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 subject property has a Future Land Use Map (FLUM) designation of GC (General
Commercial) and is currently zoned GC (General Commercial). The proposed AC zoning
designation (Automotive Commercial) is consistent with the GC Future Land Use Map
designation, and the AC zoning category allows automotive related uses. The proposal is to
operate a full service motorcycle sales and service facility. Pursuant to the LDR Section
4.4.10(B), within the AC zone district, the sale, lease, or rental of motorcycles is a permitted use
and repair facilities are allowed as a conditional use.
A conditional use application has been submitted and is being processed in conjunction with this
rezoning request. Based upon the above, positive findings can be made with respect to Future
Land Use Map Consistency.
Concurrency: Concurrency as defined pursuant to Objective B-2 of the Future Land Use
Element of the Comprehensive Plan must be met and a determination made that the
public facility needs of the requested land use and/or development application will not
exceed the ability of the City to fund and provide, or to require the provision of, needed
capital improvements in order 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 development proposal is to convert a portion of the building from motorcycle accessory
sales to motorcycle sales and service. This conversion will not have a negative impact with
respect to concurrency as it relates to traffic, parks and recreation, solid waste, drainage or
schools.
o Water service is provided via a service lateral connection to the existing 8" main along
the east side of Dixie Highway.
o Sewer service is provided via a service lateral connection to the existing 8" main along
the east side of Dixie Highway.
o Adequate fire suppression is provided as a fire hydrant is located on the west side of the
property within the Dixie Highway right-of-way.
Pursuant to the City's Comprehensive Plan, treatment capacity is available at the City's Water
Treatment Plant and the South Central County Waste Water Treatment Plant for the City at
build-out. Based upon the above, positive findings can be made with respect to this level of
service standards.
Traffic: Delray Cycle is an existing business, located at 2455 N. Old Dixie Highway, in Delray
Beach. The site is a 0.78-acre tract and the existing one story building has a gross floor area of
5,929 square feet. There will be no additions made to the building. Even though the building
fronts on Old Dixie Highway with two driveways, there is also legal access off Federal Highway
through the Badcock Furniture Store parking lot, which is directly east of the Delray Cycle
property.
P & Z Staff Report - Meeting Date: 02/26/07
Delray Cycle Rezoning - GC to AC
Page 3
The owner has requested a re-zoning from General Commercial (GC) to Automotive
Commercial (AC) with a conditional use request to conduct motorcycle repair in conjunction with
motorcycle sales. The Delray Cycle presently just sells accessories for motorcycles. This use is
considered the same as Automobile Parts Sales, (ITE Code 843) as contained in the 7th
Edition, Trip Generation Manual by the Institute of Transportation Engineers. The new use will
result in a conversion of a portion of the motorcycle parts sales area into motorcycle sales and
repair. The trips generated by the proposed mix of uses is 255 ADT with an A.M peak hour of 13
trips and a P.M. peak hour of 26 trips. This results in a net decrease of 94 ADT and nine (9)
P.M. peak hour trips. There is no change in the A.M. peak hour trips
Parks and Recreation Facilities:
Park dedication requirements do not apply for non-residential uses.
Solid Waste:
The proposal calls for construction of a 5,929 sq. ft. retail building. Trash generated each year
by the existing 5,929 sq.ft. retail building is equivalent to 30.6 tons of solid waste per year [5,929
sq.ft. x 10.2 Ibs. = 60,476 Ibs.l2,000 = 30.2 tons]. A properly screened dumpster is currently
located on the northeast side of the property. The Solid Waste Authority has indicated that its
facilities have sufficient capacity to handle all development proposals till the year 2021, thus a
positive finding with respect to this level of service standard can be made.
Consistency: A finding of overall consistency may be made even though the action will
be in conflict with some individual performance standards contained within Article 3.2,
provided that the approving body specifically finds that the beneficial aspects of the
proposed project (hence compliance with some standards) outweighs the negative
impacts of identified points of conflict.
Section 3.2.2 (Standards for Rezonina Actions): Standards A, B, C, and E are not
applicable. The applicable performance standards of Section 3.2.2 are as follows:
(D) 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.
The following zoning designations and uses border the property:
Zonin2 Desi2nation: Use:
North: General Commercial (GC) Ellie's Diner Restaurant
South: General Commercial (GC) Retail Establishment and a Vacant Single
Family Structure
East: General Commercial (GC) Babcock Furniture
West: Community Facilities (CF) Atlantic High School
P & Z Staff Report - Meeting Date: 02126/07
Delray Cycle Rezoning - GC to AC
Page 4
The Old Dixie Highway and North Federal Highway corridor contains a mix of uses
including retail, office, office-light industrial, and residential. The motorcycle parts sales
building is located along Dixie Highway with the building's entrance situated on the
south side of the building.
The full service motorcycle repair component will be compatible with the existing
commercial development on the north, south and east. The proposed commercial use is
consistent with the City's North Federal Highway Redevelopment Plan, which includes
the subject property. The building is located adjacent to Old Dixie Highway and Federal
Highway in accordance with the neo-traditional principals ascribed to this area. A similar
use (Autobahn Dealership) is located approximately 200 yards to the north of the subject
property without any known conflicts to neighborhood. Incorporating the full service
motorcycle repair component in conjunction with the sale of motorcycles and
accessories will further the goal of the redevelopment plan for this area and will have a
positive effect on the economic stability of the neighborhood. The proposed use will
provide further impetus for the redevelopment of the North Federal Highway corridor.
Section 2.4.5(D) (5) (Rezoning Findings):
Pursuant to Section 2.4.5(D) (5) (Findings), in addition to provisions of Chapter 3, 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;
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 neighborhood.
The applicant has submitted a justification statement, which states the following:
"Reason C has been met because the requested zoning if of similar intensity as
allowed under the Future Land Use Map and is more appropriate for the property
based upon the circumstances particular to the site and the neighborhood. The
current site is currently a parts and accessory retail store for Motorcycles, A TV's,
Scooters, etc. The applicant is requesting a rezoning from General Commercial (GC)
to Automotive Commercial (AC) in an effort to expand the existing business to include
the sale and repair of motorcycles. Objective A-1 of the Future Land Use Element of
the Comprehensive Plan states that property shall be redeveloped in a manner so
that the use and intensity is appropriate and complimentary to adjacent land uses and
fulfills remaining land use needs. The adjacent land is occupied by Borton Volvo and
Volkswagon, which are full service automotive dealerships and subsequently are
within the (AC) zoning district. An AC zoning designation would be complimentary to
the surrounding auto dealers.
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN POLICIES: A review of the objectives and policies of the
adopted Comprehensive Plan was conducted and the following applicable objectives and
policies are noted:
P & Z Staff Report - Meeting Date: 02126/07
Delray Cycle Rezoning - GC to AC
Page 5
Future Land Use Element Obiective A-1: Property shall be developed or redeveloped in a
manner so that the future use and intensity is appropriate in terms of soil, topographic
and other applicable physical considerations; is complimentary to adjacent land uses;
and fulfills remaining land use needs.
The proposed AC zoning will be complementary with the current uses to the north, south, and
east of the property, which consist of commercial uses.
Future Land Use Element Policy A-2.4 - Automobile uses are a significant land use within
the City and as such they have presented unique concerns. In order to properly control
these uses and guide them to locations which best suits the community's future
development, the following shall apply:
1. Auto related uses other than gasoline stations, wash establishments, and auto parts
sales, shall not be permitted in the area encompassed by the CBD zone district.
2. Automobile dealerships shall not locate and/or expand in the following areas:
. Within the CBD zone district;
· West side of Southbound Federal Highway between George Bush Boulevard and
SE 10th Street;
· East side of Federal Highway, between George Bush Boulevard and the north
property line of the Delray Swap Shop/Flea Market Property;
· On properties fronting George Bush Boulevard, east of Federal Highway.
However, on the east side of Federal Highway, south of NE 6th Street, an existing
dealership may expand onto adjacent property which has an auto sales use and which is
zoned AC.
1. Rezoning to AC (Automotive Commercial) to accommodate auto dealerships shall not
be permitted west of 1-95.
2. Automobile dealerships shall be directed to the following areas:
· North of George Bush Boulevard, between Federal and Dixie Highways;
· East side of Federal Highway north of the north property line of the Delray Swap
Shop/Flea Market;
· South of Linton Boulevard, between Federal and Dixie Highways;
· Between the one-way pairs (Federal Highway) from SE 3rd Street to SE 10th
Street; and from NE 5th Street to George Bush Boulevard;
· On the north side of Linton Boulevard, between 1-95 and SW 10th Avenue, and
along Wallace Drive.
3. Auto related uses which involve the servicing and repair of vehicles, other than as
part of a full service dealership, shall be directed to industrial/commercial areas.
The subject property is located between Federal Highway and Old Dixie Highway, north of
George Bush Boulevard. As noted above, this is an area of the City where automobile
dealerships are encouraged to locate. The rezoning is to accommodate full service motorcycle
repair component in conjunction with the sale of motorcycles and accessories and the
accompanying conditional use is for the motorcycle repair portion of the request. Therefore, the
proposed use is consistent with this Policy.
P & Z Staff Report - Meeting Date: 02126/07
Delray Cycle Rezoning - GC to AC
Page 6
Future Land Use Element Policy C-1.4 - (in summary) ...the North Federal Highway
Corridor is identified as a blighted area. The North Federal Highway Redevelopment Plan
was approved by the City Commission on March 16, 1999. The Plan identified the need
for limited rezonings and LDR amendments, along with improvements necessary to
accomplish certain redevelopment goals. Future development in the area must be in
accordance with the provisions of the Redevelopment Plan.
As noted previously, the site was redeveloped for the sale of motorcycle accessories and will
now add the sale and service of motorcycles. The proposal will provide economic stimulation
and investment in the area and has resulted in the redevelopment of a blighted area. The
proposed use will assist in the stabilization of the surrounding neighborhood and should be an
inducement to further redevelopment of the Federal Highway corridor. Thus, the proposal is
consistent with the objectives of the North Federal Highway Redevelopment Plan.
Community Redevelopment AQency (CRA):
At its meeting of February 8, 2007, the Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA)
recommended approval of the rezoning request.
Courtesy Notices:
Courtesy notices have been sent to the following homeowner's and/or civic associations:
· Carolyn Zimmerman, President's Council
· Gerry Franciosa, Progressive Residents of Delray (P.R.O.D.)
· Scott Christensen, Sea crest HOA
· Todd Harvey, Kokomo Key
· McCall Credle's Rosenthal, La Hacienda
Public Notice:
Formal public notice has been provided to property owners within a 500' radius of the subject
property. Letters of support or objection, if any, will be presented at the Planning and Zoning
Board meeting.
The proposed rezoning from GC to AC is consistent with the goals, objectives and/or policies of
the City's Comprehensive Plan, and LDR Sections 2.4.5(D) (5), 3.1.1 (Required Findings), and
3.2.2 (Standards for Rezoning). Positive findings can be made with respect to Concurrency and
Compatibility with the surrounding land uses.
With regard to LDR Sections 2.4.5(D) (5) and 3.2.2 (C) and (D), the proposed rezoning of the
subject property to AC is appropriate. The subject property is located within an area containing
mixed-use of commercial, residential, and automotive uses. Both the current zoning of GC and
the proposed rezoning of AC are appropriate zoning designation for the property based on the
FLUM designation of GC. Based upon the above, a recommendation of approval can be made
to the City Commission.

CONSIDERATION OF A CONDITIONAL USE REQUEST TO ESTABLISH A FULL
,SERVICE VEHICLE REPAIR FACILITY IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE SALE OF
MOTORCYCLES AND MOTORCYCLE ACCESSORIES WITHIN THE AC
(AUTOMOTIVE COMMERCIAL) DISTRICT ON A 0.78 ACRE SITE LOCATED AT 2455
N. OLD DIXIE HIGHWAY WHICH IS APPROXIMATELY 1,250' SOUTH OF
GULFSTREAM BOULEVARD.
TO:
THRU:
SUBJECT:
On August 22, 1989, the subject property was annexed with a GC zoning designation as part of the
North Federal Highway annexations via Ordinance 43-89. On July 25, 2001 the Site Plan Review and
Appearance Board approved a Class V site plan, landscape and architectural elevations for Delray Cycle
(a retail shop selling motorcycle parts and accessories) on a 0.78 acre parcel fronting Dixie Highway.
The facility was constructed and has been operating since. At its meeting of February 26, 2007, the
Planning and Zoning Board recommended approval of a rezoning request from GC (General
Commercial) to AC (Automotive Commercial). The rezoning was sought to convert a portion of the
existing building from retail sales (motorcycle parts) to motorcycle sales. At its meeting of March 5,
2007, the City Commission approved, on first reading, the rezoning request from GC (General
Commercial) to AC (Automotive Commercial) for the subject property. Second and final reading of the
rezoning ordinance is accompanying the Conditional Use request on this agenda. Additional background
and an analysis of the Conditional Use request are found in the attached Planning and Zoning Board
staff report.
At its meeting of February 26, 2007, the Planning and Zoning Board held a public hearing in conjunction
with the Conditional Use request. No one from the public spoke either in support or opposition to the
request. After reviewing the staff report and discussing the proposal, the Board voted 4-0 (Chuck Halberg
and Paul Zacks absent, and Joe Pike stepped down) to recommend approval of the Conditional Use
request to the City Commission, 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 the criteria set forth in
Section 2.4.5(E)(5), and Chapter 3 of the Land Development Regulations.
Approve the Conditional Use to establish a Full Service Motorcycle-repair facility in conjunction with the
sale of Motorcycles and Accessories for Delray Cycle, subject to conditions outlined in the Planning and
Zoning Board staff report, 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
criteria set forth in Section 2.4.5(E) (5), and Chapter 3 of the Land Development Regulations.

GENERAL DATA:
IV.D.
The action before the Board is making a recommendation to the City Commission on a request for a
Conditional Use, to establish a Full Service Vehicle-repair facility in conjunction with the sale of
Motorcycle and motorcycle accessories, pursuant to LOR Section 4.4.10 (D).
The property is located at 2455 N. Old Dixie Highway, in Delray Beach, and is approximately 1,250
feet south of Gulfstream Blvd.
On August 22, 1989, the subject property was annexed with a GC zoning designation as part of the
North Federal Highway annexations via Ordinance 43-89. The subject property involves the west
portion of Lots 6, 7 & 8, Delray Beach Estates Subdivision. The subject property is a portion of an
overall 2.35 acre property containing an existing commercial building with associated parking, which
is currently occupied by Badcock Furniture. The westem portion of the site was subdivided into a
separate 0.78 acre site for Delray Cycle, a retail motorcycle accessory store approved by the Site
Plan Review and Appearance Board on July 25, 2007.
In November 2006, a Rezoning request was submitted by Miller Land Planning Consultants. The
applicant, Delray Cycle, is seeking a rezoning of the property from GC (General Commercial to (AC)
Automotive Commercial to allow motorcycle sales and motorcycle repairs as part of their operation.
Based on Land Development Regulations (LOR) Section 4.4.10 (B), the sale, lease, or rental of
motorcycles is a permitted use, however, the repair aspects of the request is a Conditional Use. This
rezoning request will be considered concurrently by the Planning and Zoning Board meeting of
February 26,2007.
This conditional use application is now before the Board for consideration.
The request is to establish a Full Service Vehicle Repair facility in conjunction with The Sale of
Motorcycles and accessories. The use of Full Service Vehicle Repair requires a Conditional use
approval [Ref. LOR Section 4.4.1 O(C) (7)] within the Automotive Commercial (AC) district.
The sale of motorcycles and related motorcycle repair facility will have three (3) employees and will
operate Monday through Friday 9:00 - 6:00 and Sat. 9:00 - 3:00. The facility will contain a showroom
of 1,200 sq. ft., repair area of 2,729 sq. ft., and storage area of 2,000 sq. ft. with total square footage
of 5,929 sq. ft.. No exterior alterations of the building are being proposed.

REQUIRED FINDINGS: (Chapter 3):
Pursuant to Section 3.1.1 (Required Findings), prior to the approval of development
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, 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 following four areas.
FUTURE LAND USE MAP: The use or structures must be allowed in the zone district and the
zoning district must be consistent with the land use designation).
, Planning and Zoning Board Sta. aport: Meeting Date 02/26/07
Delray Cycle - Conditional Use
Page 2
The subject property has a GC (General Commercial) Future Land Use Map (FLUM) designation
and is zoned GC (General Commercial). The proposed AC zoning designation is consistent with the
GC land use designation. The proposal is to operate a full service motorcycle repair shop in
conjunction with the sale of motorcycles and accessories. Pursuant to the LOR Section 4.4.10(B),
within the AC zone district, the sale, lease, or rental of motorcycles is a permitted use and the full
service vehicle repair facilities is a conditional use. Based upon the above, a positive finding can be
made with respect to consistency with the Future Land Use Map designation.
CONCURRENCY: Facilities which are provided by, or through, the City shall be provided to
new development concurrent with issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy. These facilities
shall be provided pursuant to levels of service established within the Comprehensive Plan.
Concurrency as defined pursuant to Objective B-2 of the Future Land Use Element of the
Comprehensive Plan must be met and a determination made that the public facility needs of the
requested land use and/or development application will not exceed the ability of the City to fund and
provide, or to require the provision of, needed capital improvements in order 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 development proposal is to operate a full service motorcycle repair shop in conjunction with the
sale of motorcycles and accessories. The conversion of a portion of the property from the sale of
motorcycle accessories to motorcycle service repair will not have a negative impact with respect to
concurrency as it relates to traffic, parks and recreation, solid waste, drainage or schools.
Water and Sewer: With respect to water and sewer service, the following is noted:
o Water service is provided via a service lateral connection to the existing 8" main along the
east side of Dixie Highway.
o Sewer service is provided via a service lateral connection to the existing 8" main along the
east side of Dixie Highway.
o Adequate fire suppression is provided as a fire hydrant is located on the west side of the
property within the Dixie Highway right-of-way.
Pursuant to the City's Comprehensive Plan, treatment capacity is available at the City's Water
Treatment Plant and the South Central County Waste Water Treatment Plant for the City at build-
out. Based upon the above, positive findings can be made with respect to this level of service
standards.
Traffic: Delray Cycle is an existing business, located at 2455 N. Old Dixie Highway, in Defray
Beach. The site is a 0.78-acre tract and the existing one story building has a gross floor area of
5,929 square feet. There will be no additions made to the building. Even though the building fronts
on Old Dixie Highway with two driveways, there is also legal access from Federal Highway through
the Badcock Furniture Store parking lot, directly east of the Delray Cycle property.
The owner has requested a re-zoning from General Commercial (GC) to Automotive Commercial
(AC) with a conditional use request to conduct motorcycle repair in conjunction with motorcycle
sales. The Delray Cycle presently just sells accessories for motorcycles. This use is considered the
same as Automobile Parts Sales, (ITE Code 843) as contained in the 7th Edition, Trip Generation
Manual by the Institute of Transportation Engineers. The new use will result in a conversion of a
portion of the motorcycle parts sales area into motorcycle sales and repair. The trips generated by
the proposed mix of uses is 255 ADT with an A.M peak hour of 13 trips and a P.M. peak hour of 26
trips. This results in a net decrease of 94 ADT and nine (9) P.M. peak hour trips. There is no
change in the A.M. peak hour trips.

Parks and Recreation Facilities:
Park dedication requirements do not apply for non-residential uses.
Solid Waste:
Trash generated each year by the existing 5,929 sq.ft. retail building is equivalent to 30.6 tons of
solid waste per year [5,929 sq.ft. x 10.2 lbs. = 60,476 Ibs./2,000 = 30.2 tons]. The Solid Waste
Authority has indicated that its facilities have sufficient capacity to handle all development proposals
until the year 2021, thus a positive finding with respect to this level of service standard can be made.
Drainaae:
This is an existing retail establishment that has been in operation for over four years. Drainage has
been accommodated by an exfiltration system and there appears to be no problems regarding
compliance with SFWMD requirements. Based upon the above positive findings can be made with
respect to this level of service standard.
CONSISTENCY: Compliance with performance standards set forth in Chapter 3 and required
findings in Section 2.4.5(E) (5) for the Conditional Use request shall be the basis upon which
a finding of overall consistency is to be made. Other objectives and policies found in the
adopted Comprehensive Plan may be used in making a finding of overall consistency.
A review of the objectives and policies of the adopted Comprehensive Plan was conducted and the
following applicable policy was found.
Future Land Use Element Policy A-2.4 Automobile uses are a significant land use within the
City and as such they have presented unique concerns. In order to properly control these
uses and guide them to locations which best suit the community's future development, the
following shall apply:
4) Automobile dealerships shall be directed to the following areas:
· North of George Bush Boulevard, between Federal and Dixie Highways;
· East side of Federal Highway north of the north property line of the Delray Swap
Shop/Flea Market;
· South of Linton Boulevard, between Federal and Dixie Highways;
· Between the one-way pairs (Federal Highway), from SE 4th Street to SE 10th Street;
and from N.E. 5th Street to George Bush Boulevard;
· On the north side of Linton Boulevard, between 1-95 and SW 10th Avenue, and along
Wallace Drive.
The subject property is located at 2455 N .Old Dixie Highway, in Delray Beach, approximately 1,250
feet south of Gulfstream Boulevard, which is within one of the above identified areas. The requested
use will not represent an increase in the intensity of the previous use of motorcycle parts and
accessory sales.
Future land Use Element Policy C-1.4 states that North Federal Highway is identified as a
blighted area. The City Commission at its meeting of March 16, 1999 adopted the North Federal
Highway Redevelopment Plan. The goals are to provide economic stimulation and investment in the
area and the creation of jobs. Delray Cycle is an established business in operation for over four
years that invested into the corridor by constructing a new facility. The site was designed to provide
Planning and Zoning Board Sta, Jport: Meeting Date 02/26/07
Delray Cycle - Conditional Use
Page 4
a new retail component along Dixie Highway, where a large vacant portion of property existed. The
Badcock Furniture site to the east also provides for a retail component along Federal Highway. The
incorporation of the motorcycle sales and repair use is not inconsistent with the objectives of the
Federal Highway Redevelopment Plan, nor with the redevelopment efforts of the area geared to the
creation of new jobs and economic revitalization. Based on the above, Delray Cycle complies with
the North Federal Highway Redevelopment Plan.
SECTION 2.4.5(E) REQUIRED FINDINGS: (Conditional Use)
Pursuant to Section 2.4.5(E) (5) (Findings), in addition to provisions of Chapter 3, the City
Commission must make findings that establishing the conditional use will not:
A. Have a significantly detrimental effect upon the stability of the neighborhood within which
it will be located;
B. Nor that it will hinder development or redevelopment of nearby properties.
The following zoning designations and uses abut the subject property:
Zonina Desianation: Use:
North: General Commercial (GC) Ellie's Diner Restaurant
South: General Commercial (GC) Vacant SinQle Family Unit
East: General Commercial (GC) Babcock Furniture
West: Community Facilities (CF) Atlantic High School
The proposed motorcycle sales and full service motorcycle repair facility will be compatible with the
adjacent retail establishment and auto related commercial uses in the vicinity. The applicant has
indicated that Delray Cycle will operate Monday through Friday, 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. and Sat. 9:00
- 3:00. Pursuant to LOR Section 4.4.10(G)(4)(a), repair facilities and paint and body shops shall be
located at least 100 feet from any residentially zoned lot. The existing sale of motorcycles,
accessories and full service repair building complies with the location requirement, as it is located
approximately 300' from the closest residentially zoned property on the west side of the FEC
Railroad right-of-way.
Pursuant to LOR Section 4.4.1 0(G)(5)(e), dealers are prohibited from using residential streets for the
testing of vehicles after servicing and for the demonstration of vehicles. The property is located
between Federal Highway and Old Dixie Highway, which are used primarily for commercial traffic. A
condition of approval is attached that restricts the motorcycle dealer from using residential streets for
the testing of motorcycles after servicing and for the demonstration of motorcycles before sale.
Therefore, subject to the condition of approval, a positive finding can be made that the proposed
conditional use will not have a detrimental effect on the stability of the neighborhood nor that it will
hinder development or redevelopment of nearby properties.
COMPLIANCE WITH THE lAND DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS:
Items identified in the land Development Regulations shall specifically be addressed by the
body taking final action on the site and development application/request.
LOR Section 4.3.4(K) Develooment Standards Matrix:
The following table indicates that the proposal complies with LOR Section 4.3.4(K) and Section
4.4.10 as it pertains to the AC zone district.

LOR Chapter 4.6 Supplementary District Reaulations:
Parking:
Pursuant to LDR Section 4.6.9(C)(3)(a), the proposed 5.929 square foot motorcycle parts sales and
full service repair building requires 27 parking spaces [5,929/1,000 x 4.5 = 26.7], and 27 spaces
have been provided (25 standard spaces and 2 handicap accessible spaces).
Pursuant to LDR Section 4.6.9(C)(3)(f), vehicle sales and rental, including auto sales, auto rental
agencies, recreational vehicle sales and rental, and truck sales and rental, shall provide 4 spaces
per 1,000 sq.ft. of total building(s) area, except indoor display areas. Required parking spaces shall
be designated for employee, customer, and/or service use at the standard of, at least, 1.5 spaces
per service bay and 2 spaces per 1,000 sq.ft. of floor area (less indoor display area). Any remaining
spaces may be used for display purposes. This particular LDR requirement is not applicable since
Delray Cycle deals with motorcycle parts and accessories sales in conjunction with full service
motorcycle repair as opposed to auto sales. It is noted that the 4.5 parking spaces per 1,000 sq. ft.
of retail area being applied to the subject property is a more stringent requirement than the 4 parking
spaces per 1,000 sq, ft. required by LDR Section 4.6.9(C)(3)(f). Therefore, no issues are anticipated
with respect to parking.
Automotive Commercial Supplemental District Reaulations rLDR Section 4.4.10(Gl1:
Outside Display Areas:
The conceptual site plan indicates that there will be no outdoor display areas and no parking spaces
have been designated as an out-side display area. Therefore, a condition of approval is attached
that no out-side display area for motor-cycles is allowed in the property.
Locational Restriction:
Pursuant to LDR Section 4.4.10(G)(4)(a), repair facilities and paint and body shops shall be located
at least 100 feet from any residentially zoned lot. Service bay doors shall not be oriented toward any
adjacent residentially-zoned property, except where currently existing, nor oriented toward any
adjacent public street unless it can be demonstrated to the Site Plan Review and Appearance Board
that it is not feasible to comply. The existing sale of Motorcycles, accessories and full service repair
building complies with the location requirement, as it is located approximately 300' from the closest
residentially zoned property on the west side of the FEC Railroad right-of-way. A service bay door is
located on the east side of the service building and oriented toward the interior of the site. The
service building is located approximately 70' from the ultimate right-of-way line of Old Dixie Highway
Use and Operating Restrictions:
The AC zone district contains several requirements pertaining to the general operation of automotive
related uses. Automotive related uses must comply with "Use and Operating Restrictions" of the AC

zone district [LOR Section 4.4.10(G)(5)(a) through (e)]. Items (a), (b), (d), and (e) as they pertain to
the conditional use request are discussed below:
(a) Except for automobiles, trucks, pickup trucks, vans, jeeps, motorcycle and recreation vehicles,
no other outdoor sales or display of any materials, products, or goods shall be permitted. No
industrial equipment shall be sold, leased, rented, or otherwise stored within the AC District.
However, wherever reasonably possible as determined by the City, trucks other than pickup
trucks, vans, and jeeps shall be displayed in areas which are separated from a street by an
outdoor display area for other permitted vehicles, customer or employee parking areas, or
buildings.
Analysis:
The applicant has indicated that there will be no outdoor sales or display of motorcycle or any
material, product or goods. A condition of approval is attached to that effect.
(b) No vehicle shall be parked with its hood or trunk open, nor elevated off the ground in any way.
Vehicles shall not be parked in any right-of-way or driveway.
Analysis:
A condition of approval is attached that prohibits outside display of motorcycles. The condition
will also prohibit the parking of motorcycles or vehicles within any right-of-way or driveway.
(d) Except for existing areas designated for off-loading, any areas designated for the off-loading of
vehicles or for loading and deliveries shall be located to the rear of buildings and shall be
located so as to contain noise on-site. These areas shall not be located closer than 100 feet
from any residentially- zoned lot, and shall be appropriately designated, marked, and signed.
Analysis:
The floor plan submitted is consistent with this requirement as the service entrance is located
on the east side of the building and is approximately 300' from the residentially zoned property
on the west side of the FEC Railroad right-of-way.
(e) Dealers are prohibited from using residential streets for the testing of vehicles after servicing
and for the demonstration of vehicles.
Analysis:
The property is located between Federal Highway and Old Dixie Highway, which are used
primarily for commercial traffic. A condition of approval is attached that restricts the motorcycle
dealer from using residential streets for the testing of motorcycles after servicing and for the
demonstration of motorcycle before sale.
Lighting:
Pursuant to LOR Section 4.6.8 (Lighting), lighting is existing on site for the retail establishment, is in
compliance with the LDRs and was approved during the site plan review process by the SPRAB
Board at its meeting of June 20, 2001.
LandscaDe Reauirements:
A visit to the site revealed that the landscape material requested during the site plan approval
process is in place and well maintained.
