All parties were in agreement. <br />Director Szpyrka interjected that County staff would grant the waiver for the <br />traffic light requirements, not the FDOT. <br />Attorney Reingold and Administrator Brown spoke on the re -zoning request, <br />meeting the requirements of the County's Comprehensive Plan, and the criteria <br />within the Code that encourages developments with mixed-use components. <br />The Chairman closed the Public Hearing. <br />Vice Chairman Flescher was not supportive of the proposed project, believing <br />that the hotel would not be sustainable nor complementary to the community, <br />and he was concerned with the additional traffic the project would generate. <br />He also opined that sharing amenities between the residents of the community, <br />hotel guests and non-residents could cause conflicts. <br />Chairman Adams sought and received confirmation from Attorney Reingold <br />and Senior Planner Sweeney that the proposed Mandala Village Project met the <br />elements of the Comprehensive Plan. <br />A motion was made by Commissioner Solari, seconded by Commissioner Zorc, <br />to: 1) Adopt Ordinance 2020-002, amending the zoning Ordinance and the <br />accompanying zoning map from RS -3, Residential and Single -Family (up to 3 <br />units/acre) and A-1, Agricultural -1 (up to 1 unit/5 acres), to PDTND, Planned <br />Development Traditional Neighborhood Design, for approximately 79.1 acres of <br />land generally located on the west side of 58th Avenue, north of 53rd Street, and <br />south of the North Relief Canal and described herein and providing for an <br />effective date; and 2) Approve Staffs recommendation with a modification to <br />Condition 1.B. to add the understanding that future driveway intersection <br />changes may be required to accommodate future traffic, including but not limited <br />to re -configuring the median opening and main driveway.
