Public Education and Health Systems:
The City of Delray Beach is totally within the
Palm Beach County School District. There exists
one high school, one middle school, and four
elementary schools within the City. While the
capacity of these schools is sufficient to meet
the needs within Delray Beach, the issue of
segregation and integration have necessitate~ the
School District to undertake extensive bussing of
Delray Beach children to other schools~
situation has improved with reinvestment in the
Spady Elementary School and its conversion to a
montessori program. Another elementary school
("S") is targeted for a location within the City,
east of Military Trail and south of Linton
Boulevard. This school siting was agreed to by
the School District Board and the City Commission
upon mutual acceptance of a citizen driven action
which culminated in a program of "Sharing for
Excellence in Delray Beach Schools".
The School District ~ ~¢~~ ~6~~
Z~ ¢~Z~ W~Z ~f ~ f~ is presently (1993)

this schools W6~I~ will lead to the closing of
Carver as a middle school. A program for
conversion of the Carver School site to a family

FROM: CITY I~NAGER~
SUBJECT: AGENDA ITEM ~ 10 b - MEETING OF SEPTEMBER 14, 1993
ORDINANCE NO. 52-95
DATE: September 10, 1993
This is the second reading of an ordinance adopting Comprehensive Plan
Amendment 93-1.
Generally, the first amendment of each year focuses upon updating the
work program in the Comprehensive Plan; making adjustments to the
Capital Improvement Program; status of various objectives and
policies; corrections; and general housekeeping. Amendment 93-1
proposes changes to 53 objectives and policies, modifies support
material and tables in 19 locations, and updates the Five Year
Schedule of Capital Improvements.
There were two objections raised by DCA. To accommodate one of the
objections, the policy will be left as it is. As to the other,
additional text will be inserted to create what DCA refers to as a
'measurable objective'
The Planning and Zoning Board at their August 16th meeting recommended
approval subject to conditions. The Commission reviewed those
conditions on first reading and by consensus opted to not include the
Board's request relative to R/T zoning.
At the August 24th regular meeting, Ordinance No. 52-93 passed on
first reading by a 5-0 vote.
Additionally, staff is requesting that final action on this ordinance
be deferred to coincide with the adoption of the FY 1993/94 budget.
Recommend deferral of final approval on Ordinance No. 52-93 to
coincide with the adoption of the FY 1993/94 budget.

DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING AND ZONING
SUBJECT: MEETING OF AUGUST 24, 1993
ADOPTION OF PLAN AMENDMENT 93-1~ FIRST READING
ACTION REQUESTED OF THE COMMISSION:
The action requested of the City Commission is that of
aDproval on first reading of an ordinance adopting Plan
Amendment 93-1.
Remaining actions include a properly noticed public hearing
to be held on September 14th. Final action would be
deferred, at that time, to September 28th in order that the
Capital Improvement Program as shown in the Plan Amendment
and in the Budget can be coordinated and reflect the same
decisions. However, it is desired to proceed with the
above processing sequence in order to insure that other
aspects of the Plan Amendment receive due attention.
BACKGROUND:
Plan Amendment 93-1 proposes changes to fifty-three (53)
objectives and policies, modifies support material and tables in
nineteen (19) locations, and up-dates the Five Year Schedule of
Capital Improvements.
Attached is the Planning and Zoning Board staff report (August
16th) which provides further information about the amendment. A
copy of the transmittal document (actual changes and support
documents) is available in the Planning Department Offices. As
an attachment to the public hearing document (the enacting
ordinance), there will be the precise wording changes.
The City Commission forwarded the proposed Amendments to DCA,
for mandatory review, by action on March 23, 1993. The review
process has been completed and only two (2) objections were
raised. Both are relatively insignificant. They are addressed
in the accompanying P&Z Board Staff Report (August 16th). In
addition to responding to the formal objections, the proposed
amendment needs to be up-dated to reflect the current status of
our Five-Year Capital Improvement Schedule,--- The coordination of
this Plan Amendment's Five-Year Schedule and the Budget Capital
Improvement Program will occur on September 28th.

PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD CONSIDERATION:
The Planning and Zoning Board formally reviewed this item at its
meeting of Augus% 16, 1993. On a 4-1 vote (Krall dissenting,
Currie and Felner absent), the Board recommended the following:
1. That Policy B-3.3b of the Land Use Element not be
enacted (i.e. the current wording not be changed).
2. That Policy B-3.1 of the Public Facilities be changed
to retain a "measurable standard".
3. That while the proposed Capital Budget is not
inconsistent with the Comprehensive Plan, that the
timing and allocation of funds be made in
consideration of the comments contained within the
staff report and that the Five-Year Schedule be
modified accordingly.
(Director's Note: The Commission should consider the P&Z Staff
Report when workshopping the Capital Improvement portion of the
City Manager's proposed budget.)
4. That, upon accommodation of the above, Plan Amendment
93-1 be approved (adopted).
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
By motion, approval of this adoption ordinance on first reading,
with appropriate public hearings scheduled for September 14th.

MEETING OF: AUGUST 16, 1993
AGENDA ITEM: V.A. REVIEW OF RESPONSE TO O.R.C. REPORT FOR
PLAN AMENDMENT 93-1 AND RECOMMENDATION TO THE
CITY COMMISSION REGARDING CHANGES TO 93-1
ITEM BEFORE THE BOARD:
The item before the Board consists of the following:
* Review of the Objections, Recommendations, and
Comment (O.R.C.) Report prepared by the Department
of Community Affairs (DCA) on our proposed Plan
Amendment 93-1.
* Review and endorsement of the City's Response to
the O.R.C. Report.
* Recommendations to the City Commission regarding
changes to the proposed amendment which 'will:
(a) accommodate objections raised by DCA,
(b) up-date material pertaining to the Five Year
Schedule of Capital Improvements, and
(c) accommodate other minor changes.
BACKGROUND:
Amendment 93-1 proposes changes to fifty-three (53)
objectives and policies, modifies support material and
tables in nineteen (19) locations, and up-dates the Five
Year Schedule of Capital Improvements. Attached is the
Table of Contents which lists the subject of the changes.
Plan Amendment 93-1 was prepared early in 1993. It. was
reviewed at a public hearing held before the Planning and
Zoning Board on March 15, 1993. It was authorized to be
forwarded to DCA for required review by City Commission
action on March 23, 1993.
DCA has completed its review and has issued its O.R.C.
Report. The Department has stated two objections. There
were no objections from other reviewing agencies. The City
must now respond to the O.R.C. Report and take "adoption"
action on the proposed Plan Amendment 93-1.

In addition to the two items raised in the O.R.C. Report, we
will up-date the Five-Year Schedule of Capital Improvements
to reflect the final FY 93/94 Capital Budget. Both this
Plan Amendment-and the Capital Budget will have hearings and
be considered for action before the City Commission at the
same time. It is appropriate to have consistency between
these two items. Finally, one additional item, not
previously considered, is being added to the Amendment
package.
R E S P O N S E T O O.R.C. R E P O R T:
The two objections raised by DCA are summarized as follows
(please refer to. their letter of July 16, 1993, copy
attached for more detail).
* Land Use Element Policy B-3.3b: DCA notes a technical
concern by the existence of the last sentence which they
feel makes the Plan self-amending. The last sentence allows
an annexed property to assume the City nomenclature for its
land use designation without the formality of a plan
amendment. However, this is to occur only after the
execution of an interlocal agreement with the County. Such
a situation is allowed under Chapter 163. There appears to
be some confusion as to interpretation of our intent. We
note that this same policy is subject to further amendment
in Plan Amendment 93-2. Please see John Walker's memorandum
of July 22nd for more detail and explanation.
Options for alleviating the objection:
1. Delete the last sentence, as suggested by DCA.
2. Provide more extensive documentation and Justification
under provisions of 163.01 and 163.3171, F.S.
3. Make no changes to Policy B-3.3b and leave as it is
presently written (i.e. pre proposed Amendment 93-1).
Recommended Action: Make no change to Policy B-3.3b
i.e. leave as it was; and note that Policy B-3.3b is
under further change in Plan Amendment 93-2.
* Public Facilities Element Policy B-3.1~ DCA notes that
we have eliminated a "measurable standard" from this Policy.
Our act'ion was meant to note that the target had been
reached and the programs used to reach it should be retained
as "maintenance" items (policies).
Options for alleviating the objection:
1. Provide more extensive documentation' verifying that the
target has been achieved and providing language that
the achieved target shall not be violated in the
future.
2. Re-insert a measurable standard. (See John Walker's
memorandum of July 22nd for more detail and analysis).

Objective A-4 of the Conservation Element).
CHANGES TO THE FIVE YEAR SCHEDULE OF CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS~
In compliance with the Annual Review Provisions of Chapter
V, the preparation of our first amendment of the year
precedes the annual budget preparation process. An
independent assessment of capital improvement needs is made
by the Planning and Zoning Board following public input
(hearing) sessions and initial requests from Administrative
Departments. Based upon that assessment, amendments are
proposed to the Five-Year Schedule and are included in Plan
Amendment 93-1.
Subsequently, additional information becomes available
regarding costs of proposed project and regarding available
revenue. That information is now available in the form of
the proposed Capital Budget for FY 93/94. There are
differences between what is proposed in the Capital Budget
and what is shown in 93-1. These are as follows:
1. Recreational Impact Fee Fund: Funding for acquisition
of the Southwest Park is changed from $500,000 in FY 93/94
to $400,000 in FY 93/94 and $100,000 in FY 94/95 due to
availability of funds.
2. Decade of Excellence Fund:
* Funding for Street Reconstruction increased to
$2,500,000 (from $1,730,000) based on more accurate
data.
* Funding for Old School Square Improvement Area
increased to $497,400 (from $450,000) reflecting an
account balance.
* Funding for Alley Reconstruction (CBD) increased to
$350,000 (from $330,000) based upon revised estimates.
* Inclusion of Fire Station #3 renovation at $263,400.
Inadvertently left off the Amendment.
* Inclusion of Barwick Road beautification at $54,150.
Inadvertently left off the Amendment.
* Funding for residual work in the Northwest Drainage
Project Area in the amount of $175,000. Previously
non-expended funds.

FY 96/97 not shown to $ 67,000
FY 97/98 not shown to $ 32,000
5. Golf Course Fund: Changed to show only the totals since
individual projects are less than $100,000/year. And,
modified based upon continuing work on facility needs and
revised revenue projections.
FY 93/94 from $110,000 to $105,000
FY 94/95 from $180,000 to $175,000
FY 95/96 from $180,000 to $215,000
FY 96/97 from $150,000 to $215,000
FY 97/98 from $150,000 to $115,000
6. Stormwater Utility Fund: The Stormwater Master Plan is
not yet completed and decisions for long term financing will
not be made until mid-year, 1994. A determination has been
made that the George Bush Boulevard outfall will not occur
concurrently with other street improvements. Also, the
Northwest Drainage Project is deemed complete with respect
to meeting immediate needs. Available funds have been
allocated, per the following, subsequent to need
determinations to accommodate immediate flooding situations.

Note that the specific projects are not listed in the
Five Year Schedule since none exceed $100,000. However,
the total is shown for "Projects less than $100,000
each".
7. Water and Sewer 1993 Bond Issue: This bond issue was
made during the year in order to take advantage of low
interest rates. The basis for the projects were the Water
and Sewer Master Plan Up-dates, as required by the
Comprehensive Plan. All funds are to be expended or
encumbered in FY 93/94. The project list is as follows:
FY 93/94 TOTAL $6,674,000

Morikami Projection Wells 2,344,000
8. General Construction Fund: Due to declining assessed
value, the General Fund is not able to provide funding at
the level proposed in the transmitted Amendment 93-1.
Adjustments have been made to reduce FY 93/94 expenditures
from $2,064,600 to $593,000. This is accomplished by
reductions, deletions (unfunded status) or deferral of the
following projects.
* Street resurfacing: Reduced from $250,000 to $50,000
* Equipment and Facilities R&R from $150,000 to $130,000
* City Attorney Block Beautification $51,000 to FY 94/95
* Pompey Park Pool $500,000 deleted
* Tennis Center Phase II $300,000 deleted
* Silver Terrace Paving & Drainage $293,600 deleted
* School Site "S" Road Improvements reduced from $150,000
to $50,000 In FY 93/94 with balance in FY 94/95
* ADD: City Hall Hurricane Shutters @ $42,000 in FY 93/94
and $142,000 in FY 94/95.
In FY 94/95 the deferrals are accommodated and new projects
of Police Hurricane Shutters ($92,400) and Southwest Park
Land Acquisition ($150,000) and Lake Ida Beautification
additional at $70,000 are all added.
In FY 95/96, the improvement of NE 4th Street from NE 2nd
Avenue to Federal Highway is shown in the amount of
$500,000.

Comments/Actions pertaining to the General Construction
Fund: The reductions and changes which are necessary to
accommodate the shortfall in revenue are generally
consistent with policies and directives of the Comprehensive
Plan. 'However, the following comments are offered.
A. Pompey Park Pool should received complete funding as
approximately $240,000 has been earmarked in current funds
on-hand. (It is anticipated that additional funding will be
identified prior to City Commission budget worksessions).
B. Tennis Center Phase II should receive funding as the
facility is necessary to retain our level-of-service needs
for public courts. (It is anticipated that a revenue source
will be identified prior to City Commission budget
worksessions).
C. The FY 94/95 expenditure for Southwest Park Land
Acquisition should be from the Recreation Impact Fee Fund as
opposed to the General Construction Fund.
D. The Silver Terrace paving and drainage project is an
obligation' incurred by virtue of Enclave Annexation
programs. If the funds are not needed for immediate
improvements due to investment in a redevelopment effort,
those funds are essential to the success of the
redevelopment effort.
E. The provision of hurricane shutters at City Hall and at
the Police Station were not previously prioritized by the
Planning and Zoning Board for funding (at the expense of
other projects).
Dispositions Except for project deletions in the General
Construction Fund, there are not significant changes between
the initially proposed amendment changes and the proposed
Capital Budget. The proposed Capital Budget is attached for
Boardmember information. It is recommended that the above
comments on the General Construction Fund be forwarded to
the City Commission and entered into the record during the
public hearings. The final Five year Schedule to be
included with Plan Amendment 93-1 is to reflect final action
as taken by the City Commission on the Capital Budget.
ADDITIONAL ITEMS NOT PREVIOUSLY CONSIDERED~
On page 43 of proposed.Amendment 93-1 certain changes were
made to Table L-6 which is the consistency matrix between
Future Land Use Map Designations and the Zoning Districts.
The additional change is to provide for consistency of the
Resort/Tourism (R/T) Zone District to the Transitional Land
Use Map Designation. This addition Is made based upon the
realization that the general intensity of allowable uses in
the R/T District is comparable to the NC, POD, and POC zone
districts which are deemed consistent with the Transitional
designation.

LAWTON CHILES LINDA LO. MIS SHELLEY
Governor ~ecr~tary
The Honorable Thomas E. Lynch JUL 2~ 199~ ~
Mayor of Delray Beach p~ANN~N~
city of Delray Beach &?^NIN~~u
100 Northwest First Avenue
Delray Beach, Florida 33444
Dear Mayor Lynch:
The Department has completed its review of the proposed
Comprehensive Plan Amendment (DCA No. 93-1) for the City of
Delray Beach which was submitted on March 26, 1993. Copies of
the proposed amendment have been distributed to appropriate
state, regional and local agencies for their review and their
comments are enclosed.
The Department has reviewed the proposed amendment for
consistency with Rule 9J-5, Florida Administrative Code, Chapter.
163, Part II, Florida Statutes, and the adopted City of Delray
Beach Comprehensive Plan· The Department raises two objections
to the proposed amendment, and this letter serves as the Depart-
ment's Objections, Recommendations and Comments Report.
The Department supports the City's desire to plan for
expected annexation areas~ however, the Department has noted a
technical concern with Policy B-3.3b. The last sentence of
Policy B-3.3b is to exempt annexed properties from the compre-
hensive plan amendment process.. This provision would allow the
City's plan to be self-amending at the time the parcel of land is
annexed, without the requisite public hearings and Department
review which is inconsistent with Rules 9J-5.004, 9J-5.005(2)(a),
9J-5.005(6), and 9J-5.005(8), F.A.C., Sections 163.3184 and
163.3187, F.S. The Department recommends that the last sentence
of Policy. B-3.3b be stricken from the policy.

The Department advises the City, that if it wishes to change
the use of land for an annexed parcel, a plan amendment must be
submitted to adopt a new land use designation. The City's Future
Land Use Map must be also be amended to reflect changes to the
City's jurisdictional boundaries from annexations. However, if
the City wishes to establish an agreement with the County to
exercise joint power over lands which the City anticipates it
will annex, an agreement should be developed with the County
consistent with the joint-exercise of power contemplated by
Sections 163.01 and 163.3171, F.S.
The Department has also noted that the City proposes to
delete from Policy B-3.1 its commitment to reduce water consump-
tion by 10%. This deletion will remove the measurable standard
from the Policy. This deletion is inconsistent with Rules 9J-
5.003(68), 9J-5.005(6), and 9J-5.013(3)(c)1., F.A.C. The City
should continue to include a specific measurable standard in the
policy which can be used to evaluate how well the City has met
its commitment to reduce water consumption.
This letter and the enclosed external agency comments are
being issued pursuant to Rule 9J-11.010, Florida Administrative
Code. Upon receipt of this letter, the City of Delray Beach has
60 days in which to adopt, adopt with changes, or determine that
the City will not adopt the proposed amendments. The process for
adoption of local comprehensive plan amendments is outlined in
s.163.3184, Florida Statutes, and Rule 9J-11.011, Florida Admini-
strative Code.
Within ten working days of the date of adoption, the City of
Delray Beach must submit the following to the Department:
Five copies of the adopted comprehensive plan amendment;
A copy of the adoption ordinance;
A listing of additional changes not previously reviewed;
A listing of findings by the local governing body, if any,
which were not included in the ordinance; and
A statement indicating the relationship of the additional
changes to the Department's Objections, Recommendations and
Comments Report.
The Honorable Thomas E. Lynch
July 16, 1993

The above amendments and documentation are required for the
Department to conduct the compliance review, make a compliance
determination and issue the appropriate notice of intent.
In order to expedite the regional planning council's review
of the amendments, and pursuant to the provisions of Chapter 92-
129, Laws of Florida, please provide a copy of the adopted amend-
ment directly to the Executive Director of the Treasure Coast
Regional Planning Council.
The Environmental Land Management Study (ELMS) II legisla-
tion became effective on July 1,1993 and has changed how local
governments transmit amendments; how amendments are processed and
reviewed; and when amendments become effective. Rule 9J-11,
F.A.C. which is the procedural rule to help guide the process,
has not been formally adopted, however, the Department will
ger~erally follow the procedures outlined in the draft rule.
A copy of the proposed changes to 9J-11, F.A.C. is enclosed for
your review.
If you have any questions, please contact Maria Abada1, Plan
Review Administrator, Suzanne Bellamy Woodcock, Planning Manager,
or David Dahlstrom, Planner IV, at (904) 487-4545.
Sincerely,
Robert Permock, Chief

PLANNING AND ZONING DEPARTMENT MEMORANDUM
TO: DAVID J. KOVACS, DIRECTOR
DATE: JULY 22, 1993
SUBJECT: COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT 93-1 - ORC REPORT
On July 21, we received the report of Objections,
Recommendations, and Comments from Florida Department of
Community Affairs (DCA) for Plan Amendment 93-1. DCA raised
only two minor objections to the Amendment. Other review
agencies had no objections and no adverse comments.
The objections raised by DCA were specific in nature and
referenced specific policies. I believe that we can make
changes to the policies to overcome DCA's objections without
compromising the intent of our amendment. Analysis of the
objections and recommended solutions follow.
Future Land Use Element~ Policy B-3.3b
Policy B-3.3b Upon execution of such an
agreement, the County shall amend its zoning code
to providet at a minimumt for pre-application
review and comment, by the City, of County
development applications. However~ it is the
intent of this effort to effect a transfer of
power to the City for land use, zoning, building,
and code enforcement functions. ~ Finally,
upon execution of such an agreement, property may
annex to the City and development may proceed
without the necessity of amendment to the City's
Comprehensive Plan._ ~~ ~M~ ~M~ ~ff~~M~
DCA objects to the proposed change in this policy and states
that, as written, the proposed policy would make the City's
Comprehensive Plan self-amending at the time a parcel of land is
annexed. This concerns DCA since it may side step the public
hearing and review process. DCA recommends that we strike the
last sentence of the proposed policy.
The City, in proposing a change to the policy, did not intend to
eliminate the review process for annexed property. It was our
intent to simplify the process by making the County and City
Land Use Plans identical in the City's Planning and Service
Area. To accomplish this, the County Comprehensive Plan would
be amended ~ith the benefit of public hearings and DCA review.
David J. Kovacs
Comprehensive Plan Amendment 93-1 - ORC Report
Page 2
In.reviewing the proposed policy in light of DCA's concerns, it
does appear that_ the intent of the policy as written could be
misconstrued. Since the transmittal of Plan Amendment 93-1,
further revisions to Policy B-3.3b have been proposed in
Amendment' 93-2 (copy attached). The policy as proposed in 93-2
should eliminate DCA's objections. Therefore, I recommended
that we withdraw the proposed revision to Policy B-3.3b
contained in Plan Amendment 93-1.

and

maintenance program for water mains, pumps
and meters (see related Policy C-4.3)
DCA raised an objection to only one portion of this proposed
change; the elimination of the specific target to reduce water
consumption by 10%. Rule 9J-5 requires that such policies
contain measurable targets.
David J. Kovacs
Comprehensive Plan Amendment 93-1 - ORC Report
Page 3
While I could not verify all of DCA's references to sections of
9J-5 (I think there was a typo), I do agree that we went too far
by eliminating the target. To overcome the objection, I
recommend that the policy be further changed as shown below. In
addition,' the City should perform a detailed analysis of water
consumption in the Evaluation and Appraisal Report, if not
sooner. That analysis should address the need for further
reduction in water consumption and, if needed, project new
targets for reduction. Based on such an analysis, appropriate
policy changes can be proposed.

and
· continuation of the regular preventive

Comment: As part of the budget process, the City adopted
new rates for water and sewer. These rates promote water
conservation by shifting some of the "fixed" costs into
consumption cost, resulting in significantly higher costs
for higher consumption and, effectively, differential
rates, based on consumption.
In addition, the City is completing a conservation plan for
water use in concert with South Florida Water Management
District (SFWMD). This plan will include conservation
surcharges based on SFWMD formulae which will take effect
at various levels of drought alert as declared by SFWMD.
The overall goal to reduce water consumption is being met,
in-part, through the above activities and, in-part, through
other conservation measures. While still short of the goal
of 10% reduction, per capita consumption has been reduced.
The per capita consumption at the time of Plan adoption
(November, 1989) was 196 g/p/d. In January, 1993, the
consumption was 190 g/p/d. A reduction of 3.1% has been
achieved.
The other requirements have been formally adopted in the
City's Land Development Regulations.

MEMORANDUM
TO: MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSIONERS
FROM: CITY MANAGER
SUBJECT: AGENDA ITEM # /~ ~ - MEETING OF AUGUST 24, 1993
QRDINANCE NO. 52-93
DATE: August 20, 1993
This is the first reading of an ordinance adopting Comprehensive Plan
Amendment 93-1.
Generally, the first amendment of each year focuses upon updating the
work program in the Comprehensive Plan; making adjustments to the
Capital Improvement Program; status of various objectives and
policies; corrections; and general housekeeping. Amendment 93-1
proposes changes to 53 objectives and policies, modifies support
material and tables in 19 locations, and updates the Five Year
Schedule of Capital Improvements.
There were two objections raised by DCA. Both are relatively
insignificant and are addressed in "Comprehensive Plan Amendment 93-1
ORC Report", attached as backup material for this item.
The Planning and Zoning Board at their August 16th meeting recommended
approval subject to conditions which are included in the staff report
for this item.
Recommend approval of Ordinance No. 52-93 on first reading. If passed
public hearing September 14th.
PLANNING AND ZONING DEPARTMENT MEMORANDUM
TO: GENERAL INFORMATION
FROM. 'uav~u J. KOVACS, DIRECTOR
DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING AND ZONING
DATE: AUGUST 24, 1993
SUBJECT: R/T ZONING AND CONSISTENCY WITH THE "TRANSITIONAL"
LAND USE DESIGNATION
The following information is provided in response to inquiries
about the potential for making the Resort/Tourism (R/T) Zone
District deemed consistent with the Future Land Use Map
designation of "Transitional".
Situation: A request was made to consider a change to the Zone
District / Land Use Designation Matrix (within the Future Land
Use Element of the Comprehensive Plan), which would make the R/T
District consistent with the Transitional land use designation.
This request was considered by the Planning and Zoning Board, as
an additional item along with its review of the ORC Report
associated with Plan Amendment 93-1. The following information
was provided on page 6 of the Board's staff report for Amendment
93-1 (meeting of August 16, 1993).
ADDITIONAL ITEMS NOT PREVIOUSLY CONSIDERED
On page 43 of the proposed Amendment 93-1 certain changes
were made to Table L-6 which is the consistency matrix
between Future Land Use Map Designations and the Zoning
Districts. The additional change is to provide for
consistency of the Resort/Tourism (R/T) Zone District to
the Transitional Land Use Map Designation. This addition
is made based upon the realization that the general
intensity of allowable uses in the R/T District is
comparable to the NC, POD, and POC zone districts which are
deemed consistent with the Transitional designation.
Planninq and Zoninq Board Consideration: The Board, on a 4-1
vote (Currte and Felner absent), did not support inclusion of
this additional item, at this point in time. There was a
consensus that the item could be considered in Amendment 94-1.
See the next sections of this memorandum for pro and con
arguments.
General Information
R/T Zoning adn Consistency with the "Transitional" Land Use
Designation
Page 2
Arguments in Support of the Chanqe: The first supportive
argument is based on the assumed merit of the request i.e. that
the intensity of allowable uses is consistent with several other
zone districts~ which are deemed consistent with the
Transitional designation. These include RM, POC, POD, NC, and
CF (RO and OS zone districts are also consistent with the
Transitional designation).
The second supportive argument deals with the pragmatic aspects
of the request. Presently there is only one application of the
R/T District on the zoning map. Any further applications would
required a rezoning action. Thus, a public hearing review with
full findings by the Planning and Zoning Board and final action
by the City Commission must precede application of the R/T
District upon land with a Transitional designation. If a
request for R/T zoning (on land with a Transitional designation)
were to come before the City at the present time, it would need
to be accompanied by a Land Use Map Amendment to Commercial.
While a "small scale" amendment could be processed for a project
of less than ten acres, a larger scale project would need to be
included in one of our two annual amendments; thus, a
significant time imposition. Also, while the City may be
receptive to the R/T zoning, it may not be receptive to the
underlying Land Use Map designation of Commercial; thus, the
small scale amendment procedure would probably be an unrealistic
approach. The problems of timing and processing can be avoided
by accommodating the addition to Amendment 93-1, without loss of
the City's ability to control resulting situations.
Argument in Support of the Board's position: The prevailing
argument of the Board was that the item has been brought forward
with no prior discussion and analysis; and, that such a
consideration is inappropriate. The Board felt it appropriate
that each location of Transitional Land Use be reviewed for the
implications of potential R/T zoning.
Further, it was felt that any significant project which may come
up would be able to adjust to a normal plan amendment review
cycle, which would accommodate both the change to the matrix and
the specific proposal. (The schedule for Amendment 94-1 is
roughly: Initiation in February, 1994; Transmittal in April;
Adoption in September).
