DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS: On December 20, 1993, on behalf of the Edward J. DeBartolo Corporation, Greiner, Inc. applied for Development of'Regional Impact (D.R.I.) approval for the Indian_River Mall project. The project, which proposes development of a regional mall facility, a community shopping center, and several principal commercial out - parcels, is currently under review by the Treasure Coast Regional Planning Council. Through the normal DRI review process, jurisdictional agencies and county staff have reviewed the proposed project and have provided comments to regional planning council staff. Council staff are now preparing their report and recommendation to the full Council. Council staff have indicated to county planning staff that the full Council should consider the DRI request at its June 17, 1994 regular meeting. The county must now notify the planning council as to the date of the hearing at which the D.R.I. request will be considered by the Board of County Commissioners. Once the county notifies the TCRPC of the county public hearing date, the TCRPC will finalize and schedule the date of its hearing at which it will consider the request and make its report and recommendations to the county. ANALYSIS: The county is required to publish -the hearing date at least 60 days in advance of the actual hearing. The hearing date should allow enough time to receive the planning council's recommendation as well as the recommendation of the Planning and Zoning Commission. In addition to the DRI request, staff must schedule a public hearing for the comprehensive plan amendment and rezoning requests that are necessary for project approval. Therefore, the DRI request should be scheduled for a time when;- at one meeting, the Board of County Commissioners can consider and take final- action on the comprehensive plan amendment, rezoning, and DRI requests. A hearing date set for the July 19, 1994 regular Board of County Commissioners meeting would meet the 60 day state notice requirement and allow adequate review time for the _regional planning council and the Planning and Zoning Commission. A July 19, 1994 hearing date would also- accommodate the Board's final hearing on the project's comprehensive plan amendment and rezoning requests. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Board of County Commissioners set a time certain public hearing date to consider the Indian River Mall DRI request for the July 19, 1994 regular Board of County Commissioners meeting. ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by Commissioner Adams, the Board unanimously scheduled a public hearing for the regular BCC meeting July 19, 1994 to consider the Indian River Mall DRI request. 3 MAY 10 1994 R00K r PAU.373 I
