TO: The Honorable Members of the Board of County Commissioners THROUGH: Art Challacombe Planning Dept. Mgr. DIVISION HEAD CONCURRENCE: Patrick Bruce King, AIL FROM: Mary Jane V. .eM` Goetzfried J Staff Planner DATE: October 18, -1982 FILE: IRC-82=SP-54,#69C SUBJECT; FLORIDA LAND'S APPEAL OF RIVERBEND SITE PLAN APPROVAL CONDITION REFERENCES: Letter from Steve L. Henders, dated September 7, 1982. It is requested that the data herein presented be given formal consideration by the Board of County Commissioners. DESCRIPTION & CONDITIONS: On July 22, 1982, Mr. Richard Van Slyke, representing Florida Land Company, submitted an application for site plan approval to revise the previously approved River Bend project. Th(, initial phase of the development consists of 116 dewelliu& units located on a 38.3 acre tract'of.land situated to the west of Highway A -1-A. In April of 1982, the Planning and Zoning Commission approved the site plan for the entire River Bend. project . - This action w. taken prior to the adoption of the Thoroughfare Plan, however, the Plan was approved by the Board of County Commissioners in January of 1982. The Plan designates Highway A -1-A as av arterial, potentially requiring 120' of right-Qf-way. 'Trite .Department of Transportat-i.on, undet- Florida Statues 163..!'`,O, completely endorses the projected right-o'f-way needs for this State Road. One hundred feet of right-of-way exists in the area of the River Bend project. At the time of the original site plan approval the developer did not dedicate the additional right-of-way specified by the Plan. Due to the design of the proposed development the structural setbact: = adequately satisfied this requirement. The subsequent site plan submitter to revise the initial. T-1hase of the project now proposes a 6' high, 2-1/2' vide, -1conex-p-te block wall to be cons true ted , at varying points, on ithe z L ght- of-way' line. This proposal does not conform to the Thorniigh- fare Element of Indian River County's. adopted Comprehensive Plan. On August 26 , 1982, the Planning and Zoning Commission approved the site plan application with the condition that an additional 10' be provided for right-of-way. This condition can be accomodated by the relocation of the proposed wall to 10' west of the existing right-of-way lino. RECOMMENDATION: It is the Planning Staff's recommendation that the appeal of the condition of site plan approval for the River Bend project be denied; based on non-conformance with the Comprehensive Plan.
