Notes: * Cottage lots will be created via the plat -over site plan process ** 25' rear setback for perimeter lots / 5' rear setback for interior lots *** 10' side setback if attached to principal structure / 0' side setback if detached from principal structure **** All multi -family building locations will be controlled by the preliminary PD plans PD REZONING ANALYSIS: Existing Zoning and Land Use Pattern: The overall project site is +84.62 (gross) acres and consists entirely of abandoned citrus groves. The eastern +66.58 acres are located inside the Urban Service Area, with +31.41 acres zoned A-1 and +35.17 acres zoned RS -3. All of the property inside the Urban Service Area has an L-1 land designation, which allows up to 3 units/acre. The western +18.04 acres are located outside the Urban Service Area and are zoned A-1. • North of the project site is the North Relief Canal. Most of the properties across the North Relief Canal are inside the Urban Service Area, have an L-1 land use designation, and are zoned either RS -3 or A-1. Most of the RS -3 properties are developed with conventional single-family homes, and the A-1 properties are developed with single-family homes and accessory buildings (e.g. pole barns or detached garages). • East of the project site is the 58th Avenue. The properties across 58th Avenue are zoned PD, and are developed with single-family homes as part of the Waterway Village PD. • South of the project site is 53rd Street. Most of the properties across 53rd Street are vacant, are zoned PDTND, and are part of the Providence Pointe PDTND project. The conceptual PD plan for Providence Pointe was approved on August 20, 2013; however, project construction has not commenced. There are also a few A-1 properties across 53rd Street that are not part of the Providence Pointe PDTND project, and those properties are developed with single-family homes and accessory buildings. • West of the project site is a ±18 acre vacant parcel that is outside of the Urban Service Area and is zoned A-1. Consistency with the Comprehensive Plan: Rezoning requests are reviewed for consistency with the policies of the comprehensive plan and must also be consistent with the overall designation of land uses as depicted on the Future Land Use Map. Those include agricultural, residential, recreational, conservation, and commercial and industrial land uses and residential densities. Commercial and industrial land uses are located in nodes throughout the unincorporated areas of Indian River County. The goals, objectives, and policies are the most important parts of the comprehensive plan. Policies are statements in the plan that identify the actions that the County will take in order to direct the community's development. As courses of action committed to by the County, policies provide the basis for all County land development related decisions. While all comprehensive plan policies are important, some have more applicability than others in reviewing rezoning requests. Of particular applicability for this request are the following policies and objectives. 106
