MAYOR ATTEST: City Clerk First Reading September 24, 1991 Second Reading FAILED ON SECOND AND FINAL READING - 11/26/91 MEMORANDUM TO: MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSIONERS FROM: CITY MANAGER~ ORDINANCE NO. 73-91 DATE: November 22, 1991 This is a continuation of second reading of an ordinance rezoning property located on the southeast corner of Linton Boulevard and S.W. 4th Avenue (D.BoO. Acres plat) from PC (Planned Commercial) zone district to AC (Automotive Commercial) zone district in part, GC (General Commercial) zone district in part, and PC (Planned Commercial) zone district in part. First reading of this ordinance was held at your September 24th meeting, at which time the applicant modified his request. That modification was to seek GC zoning for the existing Exxon and Kentucky Fried Chicken sites, GC for an additional area (new lot), AC for a proposed site (Tire Kingdom), with the balance of the site being retained in PC zoning. The Commission remanded the modified proposal back to the Planning and Zoning Board for their recommendation. The Planning and Zoning Board was scheduled to take action on this item at their October 21st meeting; however, the applicant requested a continuance until November 18, 1991. As this ordinance had been advertised for public hearing at the October 29th City Commission meeting, the Commission opened the public hearing for comments and continued final action on this ordinance to their November 26th meeting. Subsequently, the Planning and Zoning Board at their November 18th meeting reviewed the modified petition. It was the consensus of the Board that if the modified petition is approved, the development potential for the balance of the property retained in PC would be limited to similar uses, i.e. fast food restaurants. The Board recommended denial of the modified request on a 4-1 vote. Additionally, the Board recommended that if any change is made to accommodate the original zoning request it should be subject to the condition that prior to second reading, proof is provided that the entry adjacent to KFC can be closed and a more substantial, central entry can be provided. If this cannot be accommodated, the Board recommends that the entire property remain PC. The caption advertised for public hearing contained the applicant's modification, and in light of the Planning and Zoning Board's recommendation, staff recommends that the Commission deny this ordinance and reconsider the original rezoning request on first reading. That ordinance is located elsewhere on your agenda for action.

ACRES FROM PC TO GC IN PART AND AC IN PART ACTION REQUESTED OF THE COMMISSION: The action requested of the City Commission is that of approval of Ordinance 73-91 on second reading. BACKGROUND: The City Commission considered the ordinance on first reading at its meeting of September 24, 1991. This ordinance involved a request to change 4.68 acres of the D.B.O. Acres site from PC to GC (including existing Exxon, KFC and vacant 3.15 acres) and .80 acres from PC to AC to allow a Tire Kingdom store. During discussions with the City Commission the applicant proposed to amend his request to seek GC for the existing Exxon and KFC sites, GC for an additional area (new lot), AC for a proposed Specialty Service Shop and retain the balance of the site as PC. The City Commission accepted the modification and remanded the revised proposal to the Planning and Zoning Board's October 21, 1991 meeting. The applicant requested a continuance to the November 18, 1991 Planning and Zoning Board meeting. As the public hearing before City Commission was advertised the City Commission took public testimony on October 29, 1991 and continued the second reading to November 26, 1991. PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD CONSIDERATION: The Planning and Zoning Board formally reviewed the modified petition at its November 18, 1991 meeting. It was the consensus of the Board that if the modified petition is approved the development potential for the balance of the property (to be retained in PC) would be limited to similar uses (fast food restaurants). Given this factor the Board felt it was appropriate to look at the modified petition in the concept of whether the entire parcel should be developed in small fast food City Commission Documentation Ordinance 73-91 - Rezoning of D.B.O. Acres from PC to GC in Part and AC in Part Page 2 restaurants building or the site should be retained as PC in the anticipation of a more substantial development. The Board recommended denial of the modified request on a 4 to 1 vote (Purdo dissenting) but recommended if a change is made, it be to accommodate the original rezoning request subject to the following condition: * That prior to second reading, proof is provided that the entry adjacent KFC can be closed and a more substantial central entry can be provided. If this cannot be accommodated the Board recommendation would be that the property remain PC (denial of the modified and original requests).

MAYOR ATTEST: City Clerk First Reading Second Reading MEMORANDUM TO: MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSIONERS FROM: CITY MANAGER~;~ SUBJECT: AGENDA ITEM ~ ~ ~ - MEETING OF SEPTEMBER 24, 1991 ORDINANCE NO. 73-91 DATE: September 20, 1991 This is a first reading of an ordinance rezoning property located on the southeast corner of Linton Boulevard and S.W. 4th Avenue (D.B.O. Acres plat) from PC (Planned Commercial) zone district to AC (Automotive Commercial) zone district in part and GC (General Commercial) zone district in part. This parcel has a long development history. In July of 1988 the parcel was annexed into the City with initial zoning of GC (General Commercial). In September and October 1988, respectively, the Commission approved a site plan for a Kentucky Fried Chicken Restaurant and Exxon Service Station. In March 1989, the Commission approved a final plat for the entire 5.72 acres parcel, which contained three lots, with Lot 3 being allocated for future office use. Subsequently, during the Citywide rezonings associated with the adoption of the Land Development Regulations, this parcel was rezoned from GC (General Commercial) to PC (Planned Commercial). The reason for PC zoning was that the site had a general "master plan" and it was desired that Lot 3 be developed for a single use. The applicant is now requesting that the parcel be rezoned from PC to GC and AC, with Lot 3 and subsequently being subdivided into four separate lots. The development proposal is to seek a rezoning of approximately 4.68 acres from PC to GC and .80 acres from PC to AC. The 4.68 acres includes the existing Exxon Station , the Kentucky Fried Chicken, and a portion of Lot 3. The accompanying sketch plan shows three, 3,000 square feet, fast food restaurants on that portion of Lot 3 proposed for GC zoning. The balance of Lot 3 is to go from PC to AC to support a 6,435 square foot Tire King~om Store. Concerns with the requested zoning change relate to two specific areas. The first being the effect of removing the minimum building size with the adoption of GC and AC zoning designations. Removal would allow development of smaller buildings and given the configuration of the parcel, development of strip commercial uses contrary to Land Use Policy A-1.3. The second concern is the effect of the traffic associated with the increased development potential of GC or AC zoning. The Planning and Zoning Board at their September 16th meeting recommended denial of the rezoning. Recommend consideration of Ordinance No. 73-91 on first reading.

MAYOR ATTEST: City Clerk First Reading Second Reading CITY COMM I S S I ON DOCUMENTATION TO:~ /---~VID T. HARDEN, CITY MANAGER DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING AND ZONING SUBJECT: MEETING OF SEPTEMBER 24, 1991 ORDINANCE REZONING D.B.O. ACRES FROM PC TO GC AND AC ACTION REQUESTED OF THE COMMISSION: The action requested of the City Commission is that of approval of a rezoning ordinance affecting D.B.O. Acres by changing designations from PC to GC and AC. D.B.O. Acres is comprised of approximately 5.5 acres and is located on the south side of Linton Boulevard between the F.E.C. Railway and S.W. 4th Avenue. BACKGROUND: Please refer to the attached Planning and Zoning Board staff report for a full discussion of this application. The bottom line of this rezoning request is that the 6,000 sq.ft, minimum floor area requirement (per building) would no longer apply; thus allowing development of some uses (e.g. fast food and drive through restaurant) which otherwise would not be accommodated. Also, the AC portion of the request would accommodate a Tire Kingdom business. Significant concerns include: * intensity of site usage and resulting general increase in traffic along Linton Boulevard. * median opening location and impact upon existing businesses to the north (again a factor of intensity of traffic). * queueing length along S.W. 4th Avenue and congestion associated therewith. * conflict with Land Use Policy through which additional strip commercial development is to be avoided. City Commission Docmentation Ordinance Rezoning D.B.O. Acres from PC to GC and AC Page 2 PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD CONSIDERATION: The Planning and Zoning Board formally reviewed this item at its meeting of September 16, 1991. There was considerable discussion and presentation by the project agent. Agreements were put forth as to a valid reason for the rezonings and as to why the resulting development would not constitute strip commercial development. A motion to recommend approval failed on 2-5 vote (Kellerman and Parker in the minority). Thus, the petition comes before the City Commission without a recommendation for approval. The project agent stated that an alternative consideration of rezoning only the eastern portion to AC would be acceptable; however, there Was no further action taken by the Board. RECOMMENDED ACTION: By motion, DENIAL of this Ordinance on First Reading based upon the failure to obtain a recommendation of approval (rejection of argument that a valid reason for the rezoning was presented) or a determination of consistency (conflict with Section 3.3.2 of the LDRs) with the Comprehensive Plan from the Planning and Zoning Board.

ITEM BEFORE THE BOARD: The item before the Board is that of making a recommendation on a proposed Rezoning from PC (Planned Commercial) to GC (General Commercial) and AC (Auto Commercial). The subject property is located on the south side of Linton Boulevard between $.W. 4th Avenue and the FEC Railway. BACKGROUND: In July 1986, the 5.724 acre parcel was before the Planning and Zoning Board for assignment of City Land Use Designation to County parcels which where in the the City's planning areas. The Board recommended a change for this parcel from the County designation of LI (Light Industrial) to City designation of 0 (Office). The City Commission heard the proposal on August 12, 1986, and sent it to the State for a 90 day review period. On December 2, 1986, the City Commission considered Ordinance No. 105-86 on first reading (Land Use change from LI to O) and deferred action. On December 16, 1986 a replacement Ordinance No. 164-86 to change the land use from County (LI) to (C) Commercial was considered and passed on second reading December 30, 1986. On May 16, 1988 the Planning and Zoning Board recommended approval of a voluntary annexation with initial zoning of GC (General Commercial). The City Commission approved the request on July 12, 1988 via Ordinance No. 55-88. On September 19, 1988 the Planning and Zoning Board recommended approval of the DBO acres preliminary plat containing three lots. At that same meeting recommendations of approval of site plans were forwarded to the City Commission for an Exxon Station (Lot 1) and Kentucky Fried Chicken (Lot 2). The City Commission approved the site plan on Kentucky Fried Chicken on September 27, 1988 and the Exxon site plan on October 11, 1988. The final plat for the entire 5.72 acres, containing three lots, (Lot 3 was allocated for future office use) was recommended for approval on November 21, 1988 by the Planning and Zoning Board. The final plat was approved by the City Commission on March 28, 1989. During the Citywide rezonings associated with the adoption of the LDR's in September, 1990, the parcel was rezoned from GC (General Commercial) to PC (Planned Commercial). The reason for PC zoning was that the site had a general "master plan" and it was desired that Lot 3 be developed for a single use. The applicant is now requesting to rezone the parcel from PC to GC and AC and subsequently, subdivide Lot 3 into 4 separate lots. P&Z Sta'ff Report DBO Acres Page 2 ~. PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The development proposal is to seek a rezoning of approximately 4.68 acres from PC Planned Commercial to GC General Commercial and .80 acres from PC to AC. The 4.68 acres includes the existing Exxon Station (Lot 1), the Kentucky Fried Chicken (Lot 2) and a portion of Lot 3. The accompanying sketch plan shows three 3,000 sq.ft, fast food restaurants on that portion of Lot 3 proposed as GC. The balance of Lot 3 (.80 acres) is to go from PC to AC (Automobile Commercial) to accommodate a 6,435 sq.ft. Tire Kingdom store. ZONING ANALYSIS: The current zoning designation for the entire parcel is PC Planned Commercial. When this designation was affixed to the parcel in September, 1990 it was noted that the proposed Exxon (lot 1) and KFC (lot 2) would be nonconforming with respect to the required minimum building size (6,000 sq.ft.). The PC designation was given to the entire parcel to ensure the balance of the site would be a unified development with large buildings, common access and interhal circulation patterns. The proposed zoning change to GC would remove restrictions on minimum lot sizes and minimum building sizes thereby allow development of several small individual lots with smaller buildings. Further, given the depth of the property, this development potential would lead to the creation of strip commercial uses. The proposed AC zoning change, while carrying a similar lot size restriction as the PC (10,000 sq.ft.), does not have minimum building sizes. Rezoning would promote development of a small lot and smaller building than may be considered if the entire property was to be developed under a unified PC zoning designation. Further, the AC district is restrictive in terms of land use. Given the Proposed parcel size, only auto repair, auto parts sales, and/or speculative service shops could be accommodated. Concerns over common access are controlled by the recorded plat through a limited access easements. Though a replat must be provided for the subdivision of'Lot 3 the conceptual plan retains previous access restrictions. The accompanying sketch plan also provides shared internal circulation via extension of the existing ingress/egress easement provide along the south property line across Lots 1 and 2. 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. P&Z Staff Report DBO Acres Page 3 This may b~ 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 zoning district and the zoning district must be consistent with the land use designation). The accompanying sketch plan includes the existing gasoline station, an existing fast food restaurant, 3 future fast food restaurants lots to be zoned GC and a tire store parcel to be zoned AC. The existing gasoline station as well as the existing and proposed restaurant uses are allowed in the GC (General Commercial) zoning district. The Tire Kingdom use (specialty service shops) is allowed as a conditional uses in the AC (Auto Commercial) zoning district. The GC and AC zoning districts are consistent with the underlying General Commercial land use designation. In reviewing the land use designation for the property a drafting error in the land use designation was uncovered. A 62' strip along the south boundary of the parcel is indicated on the Land Use Map as LI (Light Industrial). As the entire property was under single ownership and zoned PC to promote a unified development it is clearly a scrivener's error. The Land Use Map will be amended when changes are made with the adoption of Amendment 91-1. 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. For sewer and water, concurrency shall mean that direct connection to a functioning municipal system is made. For streets (traffic), drainage, open space (parks), and solid waste, concurrency shall be determined by the following: * The improvement is in place prior to issuance of the occupancy permit; * The improvement is bonded, as part of the subdivision improvements agreemen~ or similar instrument, and there is a schedule of completion in the bonding agreement; * The improvement is part of a governmental capital improvement budget; it has been designed; and a contract for installation has been solicited. P&Z Staff Report , DBO Acres Page 4 ... Water: Water exists to the site via main extensions constructed with development of Lots 1 and 2 (Exxon and KFC) An 8" main has been extended along Linton Boulevard and south along the east property line. The water main then connects into an existing main in the industrial park to the south. Fire hydrants were provided with the water main extension. With the proposed development, additional fire hydrants may be required to meet spacing requirements. Water service will be provided by lateral extensions from the main. Sewer: With the development of the Exxon Station on Lot 1 a lift station was constructed at the southwest corner of the site. An 8" main was extended east and stubbed out at the east end of lot 2. Additional development on Lot 3 will be required to further extend the main to the east. Drainaqe: Drainage will be accommodated by exfiltration trenches with overflow runoff into inlets along Linton Boulevard. No problems are anticipated. Streets and Traffic: The previous concept plan contained the Exxon Station, KFC and 44,233 sq.ft, of office space. This concept plan generated a total of 4,107 trips. The proposed concept plan contains the Exxon Station, KFC, three 3,000 sq.ft, fast food restaurants and a 6,435 sq.ft, tire store generating a total of 9,195 trips. This represents a total increase of 5,088 trip. The L.O.S. for the impacted roadways is not exceeded. However the following roadway improvements on the surrounding roadway are requires. Median opening Linton.Boulevard: The existing median opening for westbound Linton Boulevard traffic is located approximately 375' west of the F.E.C. railroad. This median opening is nonconforming in that it is 200' wide (verses the standard width of 110') and currently serves two driveway on the north side of Linton Boulevard. One driveway serves the Linton Self-Storage facility, while the second driveway serves the Tarmac concrete facility as well as two buildings containing auto service uses. The traffic study accompanying the rezoning requests indicates the need for a protected left turn lane for westbound traffic into the site. Given the location of the median, a left turn lane meeting minimum standards cannot be provided. As Linton Boulevard is a County road the decision as to whether the existing median opening is to be closed or a substandard design is to be accepted rests with the Palm Beach Traffic Division. P&Z Staff Report DBO Acres Page 5 The applicant has submitted a median improvement proposal which reduces the width of the median opening to 120' and provides a "peanut" allowing "left turns only" into the subject property as well as into the driveway serving the self storage facility to the north. The City Traffic Engineer has reviewed the traffic volumes into both driveways on the north side of Linton Boulevard and found that a far larger number of vehicles utilize the Tarmac/auto service use driveway. Therefore the staff has recommended the median be modified to accommodate the Tarmac driveway versus the self storage facility. However, the Tarmac driveway is further east; thereby further reducing the ability to accommodate adequate storage and transition for a protected left turn lane. As access to properties to the north will be restricted or eliminated, opposition from affected properties is anticipated. Linton Boulevard: The City Traffic Engineer has indicated that the projected traffic volume entering the site from eastbound Linton Boulevard are of a volume which will require exclusive right turn lanes into two entries. To accommodate an exclusive right turn lane additional right of way dedication will be required thereby impacting the Exxon site, KFC site and proposed perimeter landscape area of future restaurants. The ultimate decision as to weather turn lanes will be required or 'if substandard lengths will be accepted will rest with the County. S.W. 4th Avenue and Linton Boulevard intersection: With the restriction of westbound traffic through the Linton Boulevard median, or outright closing of the median, additional traffic must utilize S.W. 4th Avenue to proceed west. The additional traffic is expected to have negative impacts on the parking lanes for northbound traffic. The ability of the existing street section to accommodate the additional traffic is still under review. Some excerpts from the Traffic Study are provided in the attachments. Parks andOpen Space: Park dedication requirements do not apply for nonresidential uses. Open space requirements are a function of Section 4.6.16(H)(3)(perimeter requirements), Section 4.6.16(E) (Internal landscape requirements) as well as Section 4.3.4.(H)(6)(b) (Special Landscape Setbacks). These requirements must either be met or appropriate waivers and variances obtained with the full site plan submittal. There should be no problem in complying with these standards since Lot 3 is vacant. Solid Waste: Solid waste will be accommodated through individual dumpsters and has no bearing on the rezoning. Specific locations will be provided with the site plan submittal. P&Z Staff Report DBO Acres Page 6 Consistency: Compliance with the performance standards set forth in Section 3.3.2, along with the required findings in Section 2.4.5, 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 of a finding of overall consistency. The applicable performance standards of Section 3.3.2 and other policies which apply are as follows: A) Performance Standard 3.3.2(A) states that a rezoning to other than CF within stable residential areas shall be denied. * The property is not located within a stable residential area and therefore does not apply. B) Performance Standard 3.3.3(C) states: Additional strip commercial zoning on vacant properties shall be avoided. This policy shall not preclude rezonings on land that at the time of rezoning has improvements on it. Where existing strip commercial areas or zoning exists along an arterial street, consideration should be given to increasing the depth of the commercial zoning in order to provide for better project design. * If a rezoning to GC or AC is approved, current building size minimums which exist under the current PC (6,000 sq.ft.) will be removed. The existing building size requirement would prohibit certain kinds of uses which are synonymous with strip commercial development i.e. fast food restaurants. Given the depth and configuration of the property strip commercial development will likely result if GC or AC zoning is granted. C) Performance Standard 3.3.2(D) states: That the rezone 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. * Zoning to GC will allow commercial uses which are compatible with industrial uses to the south, commercial uses to the west, auto related uses to the north and office uses to the east. Zoning of AC is compatible to existing uses to the north and south. To the west comparability can be accommodated through site design as reflected in the sketch plan. Along the east, the sketch plan, indicates overhead doors located P&Z Staff ~eport DBO Acres Page 7 so as tO face the Dixie Highway right-of-way. Adjacent property compatibility is an issue along this property line; however, it can be mitigated through site design. Please refer to accompanying staff report for the conditional use request for details. The following Comprehensive Plan, Goals, Objectives and Polices apply to this proposal: Land Use Objective Al: Vacant property shall be developed in a manner so that the future use and intensity is appropriate in terms of soil, topographic, and other applicable physical considerations, is complementary to adjacent land uses, and fulfills remaining land use needs. Given the traffic impact concerns both at the Linton Boulevard median and at S.W. 4th Avenue, the potential intensity allowed under GC zoning may be inappropriate given the physical consideration of the surrounding traffic network. The traffic impacts, pursuant to current information, would not be complementary to adjacent land uses. Land Use Policy A-1.3: Additional strip commercial zoning on vacant land shall be avoided. This policy shall not preclude rezonings on land that at the time of rezoning has improvements on it. Where existing strip commercial uses or zoning exist along an arterial street, consideration should be given to increasing the depth of the commercial zoning in order to provide' for better project design. As discussed under performance standard 3.3.2.(c) rezoning to GC and AC would remove building size restrictions and encourage development of strip commercial nature. LDR Compliance: Pursuant to Section 2.4.5 (D)(1), a justification statement providing the reason for which the change is being sought must accompany all rezoning requests. The code further identifies certain valid reasons for approving the change being sought. These reasons include the following: * That the zoning had previously been changed, or was originally established, in error; * That there has been a change in circumstance which makes the current zoning inappropriate; P&Z Staff Report DBO Acres Page 8 * 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 and/or neighborhood. Pursuant to Section 2.4.5(d)(5), the City Commission is required to make a finding that the petition will fulfill one of these reasons. The applicant submitted a justification statement which states the following reasons for the change being sought: "The property owner is requesting a rezoning of the subject 5.481 acre parcel from PC-Planned Commercial to AC-Automotive Commercial in part (0.800 acres) and GC-General Commercial in part (4.681 acres). The subject property was included in an annexation and rezoning approval in 1988 as part of a 5.72 acre parcel. At that time the property was approved for GC-General Commercial zoning. Because the parcel was over 5 acres and under unified control, the city changed its zoning designation to PC-Planned Commercial. Today's City Zoning Code includes a PC-Planned Commercial District which was created for parcels designated as Commercial on the Future Land Use Map where the unified development is, or will be, in excess of five (5) acres. Because the easternmost parcel is being proposed for a Specialized Service Shop, which is only permitted in the AC-Automotive Commercial District, a Planned Commercial District would not be appropriate since the overall parcel would be less than five (5) acres. Subsequently, the purpose of rezoning the entire 5.481 acre parcel to AC in part, and GC in part, is to bring all platted parcels into conformity with today's Zoning Code. The intent of the Planned Commercial District, however, will still be met because the overall 5.481 acre site which includes an existing Exxon Service Station and an existing Fast-Food Restaurant (KFC) will be well planned in terms of traffic circulation, access to the abutting roadways and the overall site will still be built in accordance with the current Landscape Code requirements." It is unclear to which valid reason the above rational is referring. A reference is made that the proposed rezoning is to bring all platted parcels into conformity with todays zoning code. It has previously stated that when the parcel was zoned PC it was acknowledged that the existing developments (Exxon & KFC) were nonconforming but would be most appropriately zoned PC. P&Z Staff Report DBO Acres Page 9 (Ylq{ER: ~ REVIEW BY OTHERS: The development proposal is not in geographic areas requiring review by either the (HPB) Historic Preservation Board, DDA (Downtown Development Authority), or the CRA (Community Redevelopment Agency). ASSESSMENTS: Concerns with the requested zoning change relate to two specific areas. The first being the effect of removing the minimum building size with the adoption of GC and AC zoning designations. Removal would allow development of smaller buildings and given the configuration of the parcel, development of strip commercial uses contrary to Land Use Policy A-1.3. The second is the effect of the traffic associated with the increased development potential of GC or AC zoning. While an office development potential was previously noted for the vacant portion of the property (Lot 3), a retail use would probably be the most intensive developed under PC zoning. The rezoning to GC and AC along with subdivision into 4 lots, as proposed, would allow uses of much greater intensity. The proposed traffic increase would have a negative effect on the existing median on Linton Boulevard and impacts on the stacking at the S.W. 4th Avenue/Linton Boulevard intersection. The agent's rationale that the resulting development is unified and that traffic can be accommodated also has merit. ALTERNATIVES: A. Continue with direction. B. Recommend denial of the GC and AC Rezoning request based on failure to make positive findings with respect to Section 3.1.1 (Compatibility), Section 3.3.2 (C) (Strip Commercial), and that the proposed zoning change fails to meet one of the valid reasons pursuant to Section 2.4.5(D)(2). C. Recommend approval of the rezoning request from PC to GC and AC subject to positive findings with respect to Section 3.1.1, Section 3.3.2 and Section 2.4.5 based upon a determination that resulting development will be in a "planned" verses "strip" nature and that traffic impacts do not violate level of service standards. P&Z Staff Report DBO Acres Page 10 STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Recommend denial of the GC and AC Rezoning request based on failure to make positive findings with respect to Section 3.1.1 (Compatibility), Section 3.3.2 (Strip Commercial), and that the proposed zoning change fails to meet one of the valid reasons pursuant to Section 2.4.5(D)(2). 69 (,J~O ~o oD 80~ goz ~ 9 dO'o/ 6 ~ Z 89 ~ [01 J J zgo'z~ ~go'zI o~m ~ ~AV Ss3HgNO9 gz~ 8ZI'OZ ~ ~ !STANLEY CONSULTANTS FIGURE 2 :oF FLOmO*, ~NC.

THE STUDY INDICATES THAT 259 FEET SOUTH OF LINTON BLVD. WOULD BE OCCUPIED BY WAITING VEHICLES AT MIDDAY PEAK HOUR. THERE IS PRESENTLY 170 FEET OF STORAGE SPACE FOR THE TWO NORTHBOUND LANES. THE STUDY INDICATES THAT THE QUEUE LENGTH IS FOR EACH OF THE TWO LANES. THEREFORE, AT THE MIDDAY HOUR THE INTERSECTION FOR THE COSTCO AND DBO ACRES PROPERTY WOULD BE BLOCKED. THE MEDIAN OPENING EAST OF S.W. 4TH AVE. ON LIN'IX)N BLVD. THE CITY, COUNTY AND PROPERTY OWNERS FROM THE NORTH SIDE OF THIS MEDIAN OPENING MEET TO DISCUSS THE MODIFICATIONS WHICH WOULD BE REQUIRED AS A PART OF THE PROPOSED SITE PLAN. BASED ON THE EXISTING CONFIGURATION OF THE MEDIAN, THE COUNTY STATED THAT THE MEDIAN WOULD HAVE TO BE MODIFIED TO ALLOW ONLY LEFT TURNS INTO THE NORTH AND SOUTH PROPERTIES. THE TRAFFIC CONSULTANT WAS REQUESTED TO PROVIDE EXISTING TURN MOVEMENTS AT THE MEDIAN. AS A RESULT OF THIS DATA IT HAS BEEN CONCLUDED BY THE CITY AND COUNTY THAT THE ENTRY TO TARMAC SHOULD BE MAINTAINED (NOTE: COUNTY AGREEMENT HAS BEEN PRESENTED BY THE AGENT'S TRAFFIC CONSULTANT AND HAS NOT YET BEEN VERIFIED, BY CITY STAFF, WITH THE COUNTY.) AS A RESULT, THE STORAGE AT THE MEDIAN OPENING WILL BE APPROXIMATELY 75 FEET IN LENGTH. THIS IS SUBSTANDARD TO COUNTY REQUIREMENTS. THE TRAFFIC CONSULTANT IS CONFERRING WITH THE COUNTY TO WORK OUT AN ACCEPTABLE DESIGN SOLUTION. THE DESIGN WILL, IN ALL PROBABILITY, ELIMINATE THE EXISTING (NEW) VEGETATION. ADDITIONAL CITY CONCERNS: * ON SITE STACKING AT THE EXITS (FIGURE 4) SECTION 4.6.9(D)(3)(C) STATES THAT A MINIMUM OF 50 FEET SHALL BE PROVIDED FOR THE EXITS WHICH EXCEED 500 ADT. BASED ON THE SITE PLAN, THE EXITS ONTO LINTON HAVE APPROXIMATELY 45 FEET OF STORAGE, OR APPROXIMATELY 2 VEHICLES. DURING PEAK HOUR CONDITIONS, 70 VEHICLES PER HOUR EXITING ONTO LINTON, AT THE DRIVES WILL BLOCK THE INTERNAL INTERSECTIONS FOR THE EAST/WEST DRIVE. THE ON SITE STACKING HAS BEEN BRIEFLY EVALUATED. HOWEVER, AS A PART OF THE SITE PLAN REVIEW BY STAFF THE ACTUAL STACKING LENGTH WILL BE DETERMINED. ALSO, THERE MAY BE A NEED FOR RIGHT-TURN IN LANES FROM LINTON INTO THE PROJECT. IF SO, ADDITIONAL SITE REDESIGN WILL BE NEEDED. THE TRAFFIC STUDY HAS BEEN DETERMINED TO BE ACCEPTABLE TO BE SENT TO PALM BEACH COUNTY TRAFFIC FOR THEIR REVIEW OF COMPLIANCE WITH THE TRAFFIC PERFORMANCE ORDINANCE. WITH THE PROPOSED TRIP GENERATION IN EXCESS OF 1,000 A.D.T. THE COUNTY HAS THE SOLE REVIEW OF ACCEPTANCE OF THE STUDY AS TO WHETHER IT COMPLIES WITH THE T.P.O. THE T.P.O. REVIEW IS ONLY FOR CONCURRENCY ISSUES, IT DOES NOT ADDRESS SITE SPECIFIC CONCERNS. ACCEPTANCE OF THE TRAFFIC STUDY, BY THE COUNTY, IS REQUIRED PRIOR TO THE CITY COMMISSION APPROVAL OF A SITE SPECIFIC DEVELOPMENT ORDER. KED:#1ODBOTRF9/16/91 MEMORANpUM TO: David Kovacs Director of Planning & Zoning FROM: Greg Luttrell Traffic Engineer SUBJECT: DBO ACRES - TRAFFIC STUDY & SITE PLAN REVIEW COMMENTS DATE: September 16, 1991 We have reviewed the revised traffic study prepared by Stanley Consultants and dated September, 1991. The study addresses the issues required by the County Traffic Performance Ordinance and should be forwarded to the County for their review and comments. Specific study issues from a more detailed level include: 1) Appendix C - The P.M. peak hour traffic conditions shows a total of 217 vehices travelling through this intersection. Figure 4 shows that at least 287 vehicles will traverse the intersection in the P.M. peak hour. Figure 4 - This figure shows the projected turning movements at the Linton BouleYard/S.W. 4th Avenue intersection. Comparing thi~ figure with Figure 2 (existing turning movement volumes) yields the increase in traffic from the project. The values from the comparison of these two figures yields 80 SB and 124 NB project trips; however, Figure 4 shows only 65 SB trips and shows 142 NB trips. These two data comparisons indicate that not all of the project impacts to the Linton Boulevard/S.W. 4th Avenue have been shown/examined. . 2) Queue Length - The appendix contains an estimate of queue length of the South approach to the Linton Boulevard/S.W. 4th Avenue intersection. The P.M. peak hour queue is estimated at 234 feet and the midday queue is 259 feet. The current spacing from the driveway on S.W. 4th Avenue to Linton Boulevard is 200 feet. The average queue of vehicles waiting for the signal at Linton Boulevard/S.W. 4th Avenue will therefore, block the driveway of both the project as well as the Costco drive during both these hours. · '_.S, EP-16-"91 I,ICtl 16:27 I P:DELF?~' E}~'J. SER'_~IEES TEL I~'0:~107-243-?06,0 I:1579 FO3 3) Median Opening - Figure 2 shows traffic volumes for the two driYeways to the north of Linton Boulevard (Self Storage, Tarmac), Note that the Tarmac driveway ha~ over 4 times the traffic volume using it compared to the storage drive. While limiting either driveway will increase the number of U-Turns in the area, the storage driveway carries substantially less traffic. The alignment of the median opening should therefore be with the Tarmac driveway. 4) The eastbound left turn lane at the Old Dixie/Linton Boulevard intersection currently queues into the thru lanes of Linton Boulevard. This is an undes~reable situation. Traffic generated from this project as well as U-Turns caused by the median reconfiguration will increase the number of left turns at this intersection, This situation should be addressed by this project, 5) The driveways onto Linton Boulevard are projected to carry substantial traffic volumes (Figure 4). At the midday peak hour, the second driveway is projected to have 85 right turning vehicles entering the site, This is beyond the County right turn lane threshold of 75 and well beyond the threshold found in other traffic references. A right turn lane must therefore be installed to serve the site. Specific design requirements of a right turn lane may dictate that one of the driveways to Linton Boulevard be c~osed or relocated. This will result in a redistribution of traffic which may cause other impacts. This issue should be fully addressed prior to project approval. Site plan traffic issues are outlined below: 1) The new driveways shown are 35' and 30' wide. As these driveways will operate with right turns in/out only, the maximum width should be 24 feet. 2) The three eastern drives are mi~aligned with the internal aisleways, These driveways .are projected to carry substantial amounts of traffi= and must be designed accordingly. 3) Adequate throat length (storage) has not been provided for any of the three eastern drives, Minimum storage distances of 50-75 feet should be provided. It appears that the current site will have major impacts to the adjacent road networks. Also, th~ current site design will not safely or efficiently handle the project traffic and must be redesigned.
