r SEB 2 4 BOOK b I FSC:. �_J The applicant proposes to develop this site for a bakery distribution center with accessory retail sales of day-old bread. On January 8, 1987, the Planning -and Zoning Commission voted 5 -to -0 to recommend approval.of this request. ALTERNATIVES & ANALYSIS In this section, an analysis of the reasonableness of the appli- cation will be presented. The analysis will include a descrip- tion of the current and future land uses of the site and sur- rounding areas, potential impacts on- the transportation and utility systems, and any significant adverse impacts on environ- mental quality. Existing Land Use Pattern The subject property and the land south of it is undeveloped. North of the subject property is a convenience store and the Vero _--Highlands Welcome Center zoned CG. Further north, is a -contractors trade building zoned CH. East of the subject property, across the F.E.C. Railroad, is a vacant lot zoned CG and a service station zoned CH. West of the subject property, across Old Dixie Highway, are single-family residences zoned RS -6, Single -Family Residential District. Future Land Use Pattern The Comprehensive Plan designates the subject property and all of the land around it as part of the U.S. 1 MXD, Mixed -Use District (up to 6 units/acre). Further west, 300 feet west of Old Dixie Highway, the land is designated as LD -2, Low -Density Residential 2 (up to 6 units/acre). The proposed CH zoning is in conformance with the MXD land use designation and is consistent with the existing CH zoning to the south. Transportation Svstem The subject property has frontage on 20th Place S.E. (Highland Drive S.E.) and Old Dixie Highway (both classified as secondary collector streets on the Thoroughfare Plan). The maximum development of the subject property under the proposed CH zoning could generate up to 71 average annual daily trips. Environment The subject property is not designated as environmentally sensitive nor is it in a flood -prone area. Utilities There is a County watermain located on the west side of Old Dixie Highway north of 20th place. County, wastewater facilities are not available.
