SECOND READING AND SECOND PUBLIC HEARING FOR ORDINANCE NO. 53-96
(NORTH FEDERAL HIGHWAY OVERLAY DISTRICT)
DATE: NOVEMBER 15, 1996
This is second reading and the second public hearing for Ordinance No.
53-96 which amends two sections of the Land Develo~x, ent Regulations to
provide for the North Federal Highway Overlay District. Subsection 4.5.7
is being added to refer to the overlay district, while Section 4.4.9 (GC
zoning district regulations) is being amended to allow certain light
industrial type uses such as fabrication and assembly, and wholesale and
distribution.
The uses would be permitted as conditional uses and would have to be
conducted entirely indoors. In order to preserve the primarily commercial
nature of the area, the use has to be associated with a retail and/or
service business. The intent is to have the Federal Highway frontage keep
its commercial appearance, with access to industrial areas off of Dixie
Highway. These changes will provide more flexibility in the development of
the affected parcels with minimal impact on adjacent areas.
The Planning and Zoning Board recommended approval by a vote of 6 to 0,
with Mr. Carbone abstaining. At first reading on November 5, 1996, the
Commission passed the ordinance by unanimous vote.
Recommend approval of Ordinance No. 53-96 on second and final reading.

MEETING OF: OCTOBER 28, 1996
AGENDA ITEM: II.C. AMENDMENT TO LDR SECTIONS 4.5 AND 4.4.9,
ALLOWING FOR CERTAIN LIGHT INDUSTRIAL USES WITHIN
THE GENERAL COMMERCIAL (GC) ZONINGDISTRICT
The item before the Board is an amendment to two sections of the Land Development
Regulations, in order to implement provisions of the North Federal Highway
Redevelopment Plan. The affected sections are 4.5, Overlay and Management
Districts, and 4.9, General Commercial Zoning District.
The above referenced text amendments are being proposed in order to implement
certain provisions of the North Federal Highway Redevelopment Plan. The plan is
intended to stimulate economic investment in this important corridor. One of the issues
identified in Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Element Policy C-1.6 regarding the
North Federal Highway area, is the need to identify appropriate uses for the parcels
located between Federal and Dixie Highways, north of N.E. 14th Street.
The Redevelopment Plan calls for the creation of an overlay district in this area to
accommodate certain light industrial uses as conditional uses. The attached text
amendment provides the language to establish this overlay area.
The commercial area along the west side of North Federal Highway presents some
interesting opportunities for a mixed commercial/light industrial type zoning. The
properties are situated between North Federal Highway and Dixie Highway, with the
F.E.C. railroad tracks to the rear. While some of the parcels at the northenrmost end
are relatively large, most of the others in the corridor are only 250-300 feet in depth.
Under the present GC (General Commercial) zoning, they are most conducive to a strip
commercial type development, which the City has tried to discourage.
II.C.
P&Z Board Memorandum Staff Report
LDR Amendment: Light Industrial Overlay in the GC Zoning District
Page 2
Dixie Highway in this area has a narrow right-of-way (average of 30') and is lightly
traveled. It is separated from the residential neighborhoods to the west by the railroad
right-of-way. It has excellent potential for use as a service road for the light industrial
type uses.
A market demand analysis was conducted in conjunction with the plan for the North
Federal Highway corridor. The study suggests that the demand for office/industrial
space will exceed that of retail. While there is a demand for approximately 150,000
square feet of retail over the next 15 years, the study shows that within that same
period, 250,000 square feet of office/industrial space could be absorbed. The present
zoning does not permit any industrial type uses in the corridor.
The text amendment affects two sections of the LDRs. Subsection 4.5.7 is being added
to refer to the North Federal Highway Overlay District. Section 4.4.9 (GC zoning district
regulations) is being amended to allow, in addition to the uses currently permitted in the
GC district, certain light industrial type uses such as fabrication and assembly, and
wholesale and distribution. The uses would be permitted as conditional uses, and
would have to be conducted entirely indoors. In order to preserve the primarily
commercial nature of the area, the use has to be associated with a retail and/or service
business. The intent is to have the Federal Highway frontage keep its commercial
appearance, with access to industrial areas off of Dixie Highway.
These changes will provide more flexibility in the development of the affected parcels
with minimal impact on adjacent areas, and will help to promote the following goals of
the Redevelopment Plan:
· Identification of appropriate uses for parcels adjacent to Dixie Highway and
the F.E.C. railroad tracks;
· Providing economic stimulation and investment in the area; and
· Creation of jobs.
By motion, recommend to the City Commission approval of the attached amendment to
Sections 4.5 and 4.4.9 of the Land Development Regulations, allowing for specified
light industrial uses in the General Commercial zoning district.

DATE: OCTOBER 30, 1996
The action requested of the City Commission is approval of the following items related
to the North Federal Highway corridor:
1. The North Federal Highway Redevelopment Plan;

Policy C-1.6 of the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use calls for the preparation of a
plan for the improvement of the North Federal Highway corridor. The policy states that
the plan is to address a number of issues, including the area's overall appearance,
identification of appropriate land uses and residential densities, measures to stimulate
economic investment in the commercial corridor, and stabilization of existing residential
neighborhoods.
The proposed redevelopment plan addresses these issues through the following
recommended actions:

Actions Associated with the North Federal Highway Corridor
Page 2
· Allow for increased residential density to provide a market base to support the
commercial revitalization effort;
· Allow a greater diversity of uses for commercial development through the use of
a light industrial overlay district; and
· Improve the image and physical appearance of the area through police support,
code enforcement, neighborhood plans and beautification.
These measures require changes to the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use
Element, the City's Future Land Use Map, and the Land Development Regulations.
The attached Planning and Zoning Board staff reports contain a summary and analysis
of each of these various elements associated with the implementation of the
redevelopment plan.
On October 28, 1996, the Planning and Zoning Board held a public hearing on the
Redevelopment Plan, the Comprehensive Plan Amendment, and the associated LDR
changes. Twenty-seven people addressed the board, fifteen of whom opposed or had
concerns about the plan, and twelve of whom spoke in favor of the changes. The
following is a summary of the comments made:
· Six residents of the N. Federal area spoke in opposition, primarily because of the
proposal to allow high density on the Yake property, and the potential impacts on
their neighborhoods.
· The Mayor and Town Manager of Gulf Stream expressed concerns about the high
density land use being applied to the Yake property without having a specific site
plan available.
· Seven residents of other areas of the City, including representatives of PROD,
Tropic Palms, and Tropic Isles, opposed the creation and application of the High
Density designation, and expressed concerns about proposed CRA expenditures.
· Eight area business/commercial property owners of the area spoke in favor of the
plan because of the need for change and economic stimulation.
· Four persons representing business and residential investor interests, including
Pulte Homes, the Chamber of Commerce, Prudential Realty, and ZOM Companies
(Yake property) spoke in favor, stating that the prospect of a redevelopment plan
has generated a great deal of interest in the corridor.

MEETING OF: OCTOBER 28, 1996
AGENDA ITEM: II.C. AMENDMENT TO LDR SECTIONS 4.5 AND 4.4.9,
ALLOWING FOR CERTAIN LIGHT INDUSTRIAL USES WITHIN
THE GENERAL COMMERCIAL (GC) ZONINGDISTRICT
The item before the Board is an amendment to two sections of the Land Development
Regulations, in order to implement provisions of the North Federal Highway
Redevelopment Plan. The affected sections are 4.5, Overlay and Management
~, and 4.9, General Commercial Zoning District.
The above referenced text amendments are being proposed in order to implement
certain provisions of the North Federal Highway Redevelopment Plan. The plan is
intended to stimulate economic investment in this important corridor. One of the issues
identified in Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Element Policy C-1.6 regarding the
North Federal Highway area, is the need to identify appropriate uses for the parcels
located between Federal and Dixie Highways, north of N.E. 14th Street.
The Redevelopment Plan calls for the creation of an overlay district in this area to
accommodate certain light industrial uses as conditional uses. The attached text
amendment provides the language to establish this overlay area.
The commercial area along the west side of North Federal Highway presents some
interesting opportunities for a mixed commercial/light industrial type zoning. The
properties are situated between North Federal Highway and Dixie Highway, with the
F.E.C. railroad tracks to the rear. While some of the parcels at the northenrmost end
are relatively large, most of the others in the corridor are only 250-300 feet in depth.
Under the present GC (General Commercial) zoning, they are most conducive to a strip
commercial type development, which the City has tried to discourage.
II.C.
P&Z Board Memorandum Staff Report
LDR Amendment: Light Industrial Overlay in the GC Zoning District
Page 2
Dixie Highway in this area has a narrow right-of-way (average of 30') and is lightly
traveled. It is separated from the residential neighborhoods to the west by the railroad
right-of-way. It has excellent potential for use as a service road for the light industrial
type uses.
A market demand analysis was conducted in conjunction with the plan for the North
Federal Highway corridor. The study suggests that the demand for office/industrial
space will exceed that of retail. While there is a demand for approximately 150,000
square feet of retail over the next 15 years, the study shows that within that same
period, 250,000 square feet of office/industrial space could be absorbed. The present
zoning does not permit any industrial type uses in the corridor.
The text amendment affects two sections of the LDRs. Subsection 4.5.7 is being added
to refer to the North Federal Highway Overlay District. Section 4.4.9 (GC zoning district
regulations) is being amended to allow, in addition to the uses currently permitted in the
GC district, certain light industrial type uses such as fabrication and assembly, and
wholesale and distribution. The uses would be permitted as conditional uses, and
would have to be conducted entirely indoors. In order to preserve the primarily
commercial natUre of the area, the use has to be associated with a retail and/or service
business. The intent is to have the Federal Highway frontage keep its commercial
appearance, with access to industrial areas off of Dixie Highway.
These changes will provide more flexibility in the development of the affected parcels
with minimal impact on adjacent areas, and will help to promote the following goals of
the Redevelopment Plan:
· Identification of appropriate uses for parcels adjacent to Dixie Highway and
the F.E.C. railroad tracks;
· Providing economic stimulation and investment in the area; and
· Creation of jobs.
By motion, recommend to the City Commission approval of the attached amendment to
Sections 4.5 and 4.4.9 of the Land Development Regulations, allowing for specified
light industrial uses in the General Commercial zoning district.
