18. Public Benefits: For all PD projects, applicants must identify the public benefits that the project will provide in exchange for requested waivers or incentives being sought by the applicant. For the proposed project, the public benefits provided over and above a conventional development plan are as follows: • Right -of -Way Dedication for 53rd Street: The developer has agreed to dedicate 5.52 acres of right-of-way (ROW) for 53rd Street without compensation. Although the developer is receiving density credit for the ROW dedication, they will not seek impact fee credits or other forms of monetary compensation. The 53rd Street ROW dedication is a public benefit above and beyond a less extensive dedication that would be typical of a conventional project. • Drainage for 53rd Street: The developer has agreed to accept stormwater runoff generated by the paving of 53rd Street, which will lessen the County's obligation construct stormwater treatment facilities within the County ROW or acquire additional private property. • Public Access: Certain interior streets will be privately dedicated but open to the public, and will provide access to the limited commercial area and the hotel site. The proposed TND design will offer limited commercial and personal services that are accessible to the residents within the project as well as residents of nearby residential projects. • Lakeside Amphitheater: The applicant will provide a lakeside amphitheater that will be accessible to the public during public events. 19. Traditional Neighborhood Design (TND) Criteria: Section 915.21 of the County LDRs outline the following TND criteria: a. The minimum contiguous project site area shall be forty (40) acres. Note: The project site is 85.62 acres, and exceeds the 40 acre minimum. b. Land shall be under unified control, and it shall be planned and developed as a whole in a single development or as an approved series of developments or neighborhoods. The project shall be approved under the Planned Development (PD) rezoning process. Note: The developer controls the entire 85.62 acres and is pursuing the PD rezoning process, a process which requires a PD plan for the overall project. c. In order to disperse traffic by offering many alternative routes and connections between destinations within the project and to appropriate uses on adjacent sites, the street network shall consist of a grid or modified grid pattern and shall accommodate vehicular and pedestrian connections to adjacent streets, sidewalks, and to appropriate uses on adjacent sites. Note: The conceptual PD plan proposes a modified grid system throughout the project site with roundabouts at key intersections and an extensive sidewalk/pedestrian system. The project design provides multiple connections to 53rd Street but is restricted from extending roadways to the north and east. 114
