Carter s D Chief, Long -Range Planning RICH3 / It is requested that the data herein presented be given formal consideration by the Board of County Commissioners at their regular meeting of July 23, 1986. DESCRIPTION & CONDITIONS The City of Vero Beach is considering contracting its municipal boundaries by deannexing the R.D. Carter Subdivision and adjacent property to the north along the east side of U.S. 1. Many property owners are concerned about this possible detachment because of uncertainty regarding possible County zoning of this area. The Planning staff has discussed this situation with the State Department of Community Affairs and determined that it will not be possible to establish County zoning for this land prior to amending the County's Comprehensive Plan to estab,�ish land use designations for these properties. The County Comprehensive Plan designates part of the land which is already in the County and located east of the subject property as Hospital/Commercial node; the remainder is designated MD -1, Medium -Density Residential 1 (up to 8 units/acre). Moreover, the land in the County that is in the Hospital/Commercial node is zoned MED, Medical District, and the land designated as MD -1 is zoned RM -6, Multiple -Family Residential District (up to 6 units/acre). These designations should be compatible with land use and zoning designations to be established for the City areas to be deannexed. . In part of the City area to be deannexed, there are some existing commercial uses which must be considered. Most of the owners of this property have expressed a desire to have commercial zoning. Currently., the City has all of this property *zoned commercial except for the lots in the R.D. Carter subdivision which do not have frontage on U.S.. 1; these lots are zoned multiple -family allowing up to 8 units/acre. Working with the City staff and other County departments, the Planning Department did an analysis of this area. As a result of this analysis, the staff has prepared 3 alternate zoning configurations for the subject property based on the existing land use pattern and the existing zoning of the County land to the east. All three alternatives designate the area adjacent to the hospital/commercial node as Medical District and the existing commercial uses in the R.D. Carter subdivision as General Commercial. The other lands have different zoning classifications in each of the alternatives. 15
