KeaJ:J1j4;7 ICP SITE PLAN DENIAL <br />Planning & Develo ent Director <br />THROUGH: Mary Jane V. Goetzfried <br />Chief, Current Development Section <br />FROM:Karen M. Craver `.f �� REFERENCES: KAREN <br />Staff Planner Fla. Atlantic <br />It is requested that the data herein presented be given <br />formal consideration by the Board of County Commissioners at <br />their regular meeting of March 27, 1985. <br />DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS ' <br />On December 20, 1984, the Planning and Zoning Commission <br />denied a site plan application submitted by Florida Atlantic <br />Associates. The development company had proposed to delete <br />or relocate certain structures that had been depicted on the <br />site plan for the recreational complex at Village Green West <br />(Phase IV) . The 146 acre mobile home park is located south <br />of State Road 60, west of Ranch Road (82nd Avenue). <br />The site plan for the recreational facility, approved in <br />October of 1981, depicted a club house, an auditorium, a <br />swimming pool, a spa, shuffle board and tennis courts, boat <br />docks, and a gazebo. The recreation area is adjacent to a <br />lake, and the proposed changes included the deletion of the <br />gazebo extending into the lake', and all but two of the boat <br />piers shown on the plan. Also, walkways leading to the boat <br />piers and the roof over the spa were proposed for deletion. <br />The street that is contiguous to the recreation site crosses <br />over a culvert and the applicant was seekinga <br />al <br />exclude decorative guard rails from the side of pthev road <br />Benches and gates around the tennis courts were proposed for <br />relocation. <br />Robert Miller, Vice President of Florida Atlantic, is appeal- <br />ing the decision of the Planning and Zoning Commission to <br />deny the application to modify the site plan for the Village <br />Green West recreational complex. The denial was based upon <br />the opinions of the Commission members that the mobile home <br />park residents are entitled to the amenities that had been <br />depicted on the approved site plan. Although the Planning <br />and Zoning Commission frequently approves modifications to <br />site plans, where the proposed modifications could reduce the <br />intensity of the development, in this case the Commission <br />felt that the proposed modifications would affect principal <br />elements of the overall development by reducing available <br />recreational facilities. <br />ANALYSIS <br />The R-1MP zoning district, in which Village Green West is <br />located, has a requirement that a percentage of all develop- <br />ments be maintained as park and recreation area; however, <br />there is no requirement regarding the type or amount of <br />structures within that area. Based upon its size, Village <br />Green West is required to maintain 26 acres of park and <br />recreation area; the total acreage of the lakes and recre- <br />ational facility is 37. <br />24 <br />nor U F,yU,E,32-2 <br />A <br />
