F Nov G 1930 PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT AND LOCATION: McQueen and Associates has submitted a major site plan and special exception application on behalf of the Indian River County Utilities Department to construct a warehouse at 190 27th Avenue. This is the site of the Old Ixora Park sewage treatment plant; the site is currently being used by the Utilities department for a staging area and storage yard. This warehouse construction would permit materials on site.to be stored inside and is considered to be -an expansion of an existing limited utility use. The subject property is zoned RS -6, which requires special exception approval for a limited utility use. Application for site plan and special exception use approval was submitted August 3, 1990. This project is therefore being reviewed and approved under the County's old land development regulations. The Board of County Commissioners is to approve, approve with conditions, or deny the utility warehouse (limited utility use) special exception use request. Pursuant to Section 25.3 of the Zoning Code, Regulation of Special Exception Uses, the Board of County Commissioners is to consider the appropriateness of the requested use based on the submitted site plan and the suitability of the site for that use. The County may attach any conditions and safeguards necessary to mitigate impacts and to ensure compatibility of the use with the surrounding area. At its October 11, 1990 meeting, the Planning and Zoning Commission recommended unanimously (4 - 0) that this special exception use be approved with the condition that additional buffering be done on the east and west sides of the project. It should be noted that the Planning and Zoning Commission approved the major site plan application subject to the Board's approval- of the special exception use. Thus, if the Board approves the use, the major site plan will be "automatically" approved. ANALYSIS: 1. Size of Development Area: 3.36 acres or 146,221 sq. ft. 2.
