PLAN AMENDMENT NUMBER: LUDA 96-07-0203 <br />It is requested that the data herein presented be given formal <br />consideration by the Board of County Commissioners at their regular <br />meeting of November 12, 1996. <br />DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS <br />This request involves both a land use designation amendment and a <br />rezoning. The land use designation amendment involves changing the <br />land use designation of 4.6 acres from M-1, Medium -Density <br />Residential -1 (up to 8 units/acre), to C/I, Commercial/Industrial <br />Node. Located on the north side of SR 60, at 63rd Court, that land <br />consists of lots 1-10 of the 12 -lot Wallace Acres subdivision. <br />The rezoning request, totaling 7 acres, involves the entire Wallace <br />Acres subdivision, as well as the adjacent tract to the west. <br />Those 7 acres presently are within the following zoning districts: <br />RS -6, Single -Family Residential <br />Lots 3 Through 10 <br />District, (up to 6 units/acre) <br />RM -6, Multiple -Family Residential <br />Lots 1 and 2 <br />District, (up to 6 units/acre) <br />CL, Limited Commercial District <br />Lots 11 and 12, and the <br />Tract to the West <br />The request is to rezone the entire seven acre subject property to <br />CG, General Commercial District. The purpose of this request is to <br />secure the necessary land use designation and zoning to develop the <br />property with commercial uses. <br />On September 26, 1996, the Planning and Zoning Commission voted 6-0 <br />to recommend that the Board of County Commissioners transmit the <br />proposed land use amendment to the State Department of Community <br />Affairs (DCA) for their review. The Board of County Commissioners <br />is now to decide whether or not the subject request is to be <br />transmitted to DCA for their review. <br />Existing Land Use Pattern <br />The Wallace Acres subdivision contains 8 single-family homes. The <br />tract to the west is zoned CL and contains the "Bill's TV" store. <br />Land to the north, east and west of the subject property is zoned <br />CG and consists of the Indian River Mall and its commercial <br />outparcels. South of the subject property, across SR 60, land is <br />zoned RS -6 and contains single-family homes. <br />Future Land Use Pattern <br />Lots 1-10 of the Wallace Acres subdivision, as well as land to the <br />south, across SR 60, are designated M-1, Medium -Density <br />Residential -1, on the county future land use map. The M-1 <br />designation permits residential uses with densities up to 8 units/ <br />acre. Lots 11 and 12 of subdivision, as well as the tract abutting <br />the subdivision on the west, are designated C/I, Commercial/ <br />Industrial Node, which permits commercial and industrial zoning <br />designations. The Indian River Mall property, abutting the subject <br />property on the north, east and west is designated RC, Regional <br />Commercial. The RC designation permits major regional shopping <br />centers designed to accommodate the needs of the retail market <br />areas that extend beyond the boundaries of the county. <br />Environment <br />The subject property contains many large protected oaks. No <br />wetlands exist on site, although the northern portion of the <br />"Bill's TV" site may contain a native upland plant community. <br />According to Flood Insurance Rating Maps, the subject property does <br />not contain any flood hazard areas. <br />Utilities and Services <br />The site is within the Urban Service Area of the county. <br />Wastewater service is available to the site from the West Regional <br />Wastewater Treatment Plant. Centralized potable water service is <br />available to the site from the South County Reverse Osmosis Plant. <br />NOVEMBER 12, 1996 67 BOOK 99 <br />
