Loeper t REFERENCES: Staff Planner, Long -Range Planning COUNTY INITIATED REQUEST TO AMEND THE COMPREHEN- SIVE PLAN TO ENLARGE THE I-95/C.R. 512 INDUSTRIAL/ COMMERCIAL NODE FROM 650 ACRES TO 665 ACRES It is requested that the data herein presented be given formal consideration by the Board of County Commissioners at their regular meeting of March 15, 1987. DESCRIPTION & CONDITIONS The County is initiating a request to amend the Comprehensive Plan by enlarging the Commercial/Industrial node at the I-95 and County Road 512 interchange from 650 acres to 665 acres. The property proposed to be included is located on the north boundary line of the node between the Hetra Electronics plant and I-95. On January 15, 1986, the Board of County Commissioners adopted boundaries for a 240 acre commercial/industrial node at this interchange. On July 29, 1986, the Board of County Commissioners enlarged the node to 650 acres. On March 26, 1987, the Planning and Zoning Commission considered revised node boundaries reflecting the increased node size. At that time, the Commission amended the staff's proposed node boundaries by deleting 15 acres located in the northern part of the proposed node and adding 15 acres of land on the south side of County Road 512. The Commission also recommended that the County initiate proceedings in July to increase the size of the node in order to add back the 15 acres which they had excluded from the proposed node. On May 5, 1987, the Board of County Commissioners adopted boundaries for the 650 acre node as proposed by the Planning and Zoning Commission, and directed staff to examine the possibility of increasing the node's size by 15 acres and including the 15 acres removed at the north end of the node. On September 10, 1987, the Planning and Zoning Commission unanimously recommended the enlargement of this node by 15 acres, for the inclusion of the subject property. On October 27, 1987, the Board of County Commissioners voted 4-0 to authorize staff to transmit the proposed land use amendment to the state for review. On January 13, 1988, the Planning Department received comments from the State of Florida Department of Community Affairs (DCA), pursuant to section 163.3184, Florida Statutes. The DCA response reflects comments received by the Department from the Treasure Coast Regional Planning Council, and those comments are as follows: Both of these industrial/commercial nodes are in close proximity to I-95 with item 89 located at an interchange and item 94 at a projected interchange location. The reasoning offered for these nodes at these locations is twofold: they have good access potential and currently not adjacent to 57 NAR AR 19 8 BOOK 71 F'A E 226
