M <br />Currently, the northern of these two parcels is surrounded by <br />residentially designated land. Adoption of the proposed amendment <br />would result in C/I designated land to the west (Subject Property <br />3), abutting the parcel, and to the north (Subject Property 2), <br />across 82nd Street. <br />The southern parcel that abuts Subject Property 3 on the east <br />currently faces a commercial development on C/I designated land to <br />the south, across 81st Street. Adjacent land to the east, west, <br />and north is presently residentially designated. Adoption of the <br />proposed amendment would result in a second side of this parcel <br />being designated C/I. <br />Each of the previously mentioned factors that work to mitigate <br />potential incompatibilities also apply to Subject Property 3. <br />These factors include required buffers and setbacks, and the fact <br />that commercial development on Subject Property 3 will likely <br />locate buildings closer to U.S. #1 and open space in the eastern <br />portion of the site. <br />There is another factor that suggests that commercial development <br />on Subject Property 3 will locate on the western portion of the <br />site. Since Subject Property 3 and adjacent land to the east are <br />under the same ownership, combining those parcels is possible. <br />Such a parcel combination would eliminate the parcel boundary and, <br />therefore, the need for required side yards. Given the narrow <br />shape of Subject Property 3, such a parcel combination is the most <br />efficient and likely development pattern for the site. <br />For these reasons, the proposed amendment is not anticipated to <br />increase potential incompatibilities associated with development of <br />Subject Property 3. <br />- Subject Property 4 <br />Commercial development on Subject Property 4 would be compatible <br />with surrounding areas. Since this property abuts commercially <br />designated land to the northwest, the proposed redesignation would <br />result in a continuation of an existing land use designation <br />pattern. <br />While the properties to the south and east <br />used for groves, they are zoned RM -6 and <br />residential uses. Given the current zoning <br />zoning requested for Subject Property 4, <br />Property 4 would be required to install a T <br />with a six foot opaque feature along it.4 <br />borders. <br />are currently vacant or <br />could be converted to <br />of this land and the CG <br />development on Subject <br />ype C vegetative buffer <br />i southern and eastern <br />If surrounding residentially designated properties were converted <br />to residential uses, the resultant developments would be large <br />enough to provide adequate buffers and to orient residences away <br />from Subject Property 4. The most severe impacts of development of <br />Subject Property 4 would be on adjacent land, currently owned by <br />the applicant, to the south and east. <br />Finally, by adding depth to the existing C/I designated area, the <br />proposed amendment works to limit strip commercial development on <br />C.R. 510. <br />For these reasons, staff feels that the proposed land use <br />designation for Subject Property 4 would cause minimal impacts and <br />result in development compatible with the surrounding area. <br />JUNE 13, 1995 56 �( { <br />
