PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD MEMORANDUM STAFF REPORT
TO: PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD
CITY OF DELRAY BEACH
SUBJECT: REGULAR MEETING OF SEPTEMBER 2I~ 1992
CONSIDERATION OF LDR TEXT AMENDMENT, SECTIONS
4.4.2§(C)(3) & (I)(5) - ESTABLISHMENT OF AN SAD &
CHANGE OF DATE FOR THE MARINA CAY SAD
ITEM BEFORE THE BOARD:
The action requested of the Board is that of review and
comment upon: a proposed modification to Section
4.4.25(C)(3) of the LDRs which alters the criteria for
establishment of a large-scale, mixed use SAD;
AND,
a proposed modification to Section 4.4.25(I)(5) of the LDRs
which changes the date of expiration for the Marina Cay SAD
to August 22, 1995.
Section 1.1.6(A) provides that prior to action on a
proposed amendment to the LDRs, a recommendation be
obtained from the Planning and Zoning Board.
BACKGROUND:
Attached is documentation provided to the City Commission when
it considered a request for extension of the Marina Cay SAD.
Such an extension cannot be accommodated under our existing
rules and regulations; thus, the item was before the Commission
for direction. After review of the situation, the Commission
directed the Administration to proceed with appropriate
amendments to accommodate the continuation of the Marina Cay
SAD without the petitioner needing to file a rezoning petition.
Since Marina Cay is the only SAD which also has the Future Land
Use Map designation of "large scale, mixed use", the approach
being taken is to provide a minimum, initial approval period for
such a SAD. In order to accommodate the Marina Cay project,
this period is suggested to be six (6) years.
PROPOSED TEXT AMENDMENTS:
SECTION 4.4.25(C)(3) Establishment~ Vesting of a SAD
project shall occur in the same manner as set for the
establishment of a site plan approval [reference Section
2.4.4(D) and (E)], except that when the SAD is for a Large
Scale Mixed Use Development, the initial approva 1
(validity) period shall be specifically stated in the
P&Z Memorandum Staff Report
Marina Cay SAD
Page 2
enacting ordinance, but shall~ in no event~ be less than
six (6) years. In the event that a SAD project does not
become established, all uses, waivers, adjustments, and
other actions taken pursuant to the SAD shall be void. In
order to proceed to establish the same, or another, use it
shall be necessary to process a rezoning request.
SECTION 4.4.25(I)(5) Marina Cay, Ordinance No. 51-88, not
established, approval expires on August 22, 1992~;
ANALYSIS:
This action is being taken to accommodate a single project which
has a unique status. There appears to be two items of
significance associated with the proposed amendments. First,
there is the change from a normal 18 month approval to a minimum
initial approval of six years. While significant, Justification
may be made based upon the unique aspects of a large scale,
mixed use project.
The second aspect deals with the concepts of the continuing
validity of the land use and of concurrency as it pertains to
Marina Cay. There has been no change in land use in the
immediate area since initial approval of Marina Cay in 1989;
thus, it appears that the change would not negatively affect the
area. Recent public improvements to the water and sewer systems
alleviate any concerns which may have existed with respect to
those services and the ability to serve the area (concurrency).
With respect to traffic concurrency, Marina Cay has a vested
traffic count of 4,495 ADT. Any development project which is
proposed along N. Federal Highway needs to accommodate that
4,495 ADT as "real" traffic in the evaluation of the new
project's ability to meet traffic concurrency.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Review and comment, as deemed appropriate, and then provide a
recommendation to the City Commission.

Dear Lois:
Your letter request'of July 9, 1992, has been referred to this
office for analysis and a reply. For various reasons, as
identified below, your request cannot be accommodated. In order
to seek a new approval for establishment of use, a new rezonlng
petition with attendant submittal materials must be filed.
Among the reasons that we cannot accommodate your request are:
* the request was not received at least forty-five (45) days
prior to the expiration date [2.4.4(F)(1)(a)];
* as with your previous request for extension, the original
approval was pre-hDR; accordingly, the LDR provision which
prohibits the extension of a development order previous to
October l, 1990, applies. The extension which you received
in March, 1991, did not give you an approval but only
modified the previous termination date;
* with the code revisions of March, 1991, it is clear that
the expiration date of a Large Scale Mixed Use SAD is to be
per a date stated in the enacting ordinance. Ordinance No.
32-91 established that date as being August 22, 1992;
* the "special relief" provisions under which your previous
request was considered are no longer valid. They expired
on May 1, 1992.

Re: Request for Extension, Marina Cay SAD

Besides going through the rezoning process, as directed pursuant
to Section 2.2.25(C)(3), the only other avenue of relief is
through a direct appeal to the City Commission or the Planning
and Zoning Board who may initiate an amendment to our Land Use
Development Regulations.

Attached is correspondence from Lois Kelly, General Partner,
requesting an extension; and from David Kovacs setting forth the
reasons why an extension cannot be granted.
Under current regulations, the manner in which Marina Cay would
proceed is through a new zoning petition accompanied by
appropriate fees and up-dated submittal information (including
an up-dated traffic study); it is not permissible to grant an
extension.
In order to consider an extension, it would first be necessary
to amend our development regulations. An amendment to the SAD
regulations (treating an extension to a SAD as a special case,
apart from extensions from pre-LDR site plans and Conditional
Use items), would have implications for previously approved, but
currently expired SAD approvals for Isles of Delray and the 8th
Street Marina. Also, such an approach would have implications
for pre-LDR site plan and Conditional Use approvals.
City Commission Documentation
Request for Extension of Marina Cay SAD
Page 2
With expiration of the SAD, the project "disappears" and the
property has a special zoning designation (SAD) without a site
(development) plan. Thus, in order to put any use on the
property it is necessary to first go through a rezoning process.
Also, with expiration, reservations of capacity in the sewer,
water, and traffic systems which is currently allocated for the
Marina Cay project loses its priority i.e. if necessary that
capacity would be allocated to other projects which come on
line.
Thus, the directions which the City Commission may pursue
include:
1. That the property owner follow the procedures laid out in
the regulations and proceed through the rezoning process; or,
2. Direct the Administration to come back with an ordinance
which will accommodate the petitioners request.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Commission's discretion.

Harina Cay S. A. D. Approval
Dear Hr. [[ardin:
.On behalf of the owners of' Marina Cay and their Lenders, we
request an extension of the above referenced approval which is
scheduled to expire on August 22, 1992.
We are requesting the extension for a period of 18 months.
Due to the recession and the present banking situation in the
United States it is difficult to obtain financing. We are
present]y negotiating with Lenders who are interested in
financing our pro3ect. This would allow us to get under way
shortly.
We appreciate your assistance and support for this pro3ect. If
there are any questions regarding the above, please contact me.
Sincerely,
Lois H.

Re: Request for Extension, Marina Cay SAD
Dear Lois:
Your letter request of July 9, 1992, has been referred to this
office for analysis and a reply. For various reasons, as
identified below, your request cannot be accommodated. In order
to seek a new approval for establishment of use, a new rezoning
petition with attendant submittal materials must be filed.
Among the reasons that we cannot accommodate your request are:
* the request was not received at least forty-five (45) days
prior to the expiration date [2.4.4(F)(1)(a)];
* as with your previous request for extension, the original
approval was pre-LDR; accordingly, the LDR provision which
prohibits the extension of a development order previous to
October 1, 1990, applies. The extension which you received
in March, 1991, did not give you an approval but only
modified the previous termination date;
* with the code revisions of March, 1991, it is clear that
the expiration date of a Large Scale Mixed Use SAD is to be
per a date stated in the enacting ordinance. Ordinance No.
32-91 established that date as being August 22, 1992;
* the "special relief" provisions under which your previous
request was considered are no longer valid. They expired
on May 1, 1992.
To: Lois M. Kellj

Besides going through'the rezoning process, as directed pursuant
to Section 2.2.25(C)(3), the only other avenue of relief is
through a direct appeal to the City Commission or the Planning
and Zoning Board who may initiate an amendment to our Land Use
Development Regulations.
