80DK 68 ,GF'ur 0 <br />- -7 <br />In analyzing this request, staff relied on the work done in 1986 <br />and feels that the west 150 feet of the subject property should <br />be designated MXD .and rezoned to CG. This would be compatible <br />with the City's commercial zoning and commercial land use <br />designation for the 200 foot strip of property lying west of the <br />subject property and east of U.S. 1. The applicants would then <br />have commercial zoning for a depth of 350 feet from U.S. 1. <br />Transportation System <br />The subject property will have access to U.S. 1 (classified as an <br />arterial street on the County's Thoroughfare Plan). The maximum <br />development of the subject property under CG zoning could <br />generate up to 2741 average annual daily trips (AADT). U.S. 1 <br />currently handles 21,900 AADT in this area at level -of -service <br />"C". This additional traffic will not diminish this <br />level -of -service. <br />Environment <br />The subject property is not designated as environmentally <br />sensitive nor is it in a flood -prone area. <br />r1+-; 1 , a-; -- <br />Water is available for the subject property. County wastewater <br />facilities are not available. <br />RECOMMENDATION <br />Based on the above analysis, including the Planning and Zoning <br />Commission's recommendation, staff recommends that the staff be <br />authorized to transmit to the State the request to amend the <br />Comprehensive Plan for the west 150 feet of the subject property <br />to be redesignated as MXD. The staff also recommends that the <br />staff be directed to initiate a comprehensive plan amendment <br />request in July to establish an MXD area from 35th Street south <br />to the Vero Beach City limits. <br />The Chairman asked if anyone present wished to be heard. <br />Attorney Michael O'Haire came before the Board representing <br />the applicant. He noted that when the application was made, <br />there were three owners, but now it is all in one ownership. <br />Staff did vote to extend the CG easterly 1501, and this leaves <br />approximately 550' not zoned for commercial purposes. This <br />property is almost immediately adjacent to the MED zoning for the <br />Hospital and is in one of those troublesome jurisdictional areas <br />where boundaries coincide with the City of Vero Beach. Attorney <br />O'Haire advised that his client would accept CL for the balance <br />of this property, but to have a residential zoning almost <br />immediately adjacent to the Hospital zoning and butting up to <br />Commercial on U.S.I doesn't make sense. This is a narrow <br />property, and to cut it in half, and in effect, have strip <br />80 <br />M M M <br />
