boo 99 Fnf.-751 PLAN AMENDMENT NUMBER: LUDA 96-07-0225 It is requested that the data herein presented be given formal consideration by the Board of County Commissioners at their regular meeting of November 12, 1996. DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS This is a request to redesignate approximately 101.8 acres from M- 1, Medium -Density Residential -1 (up to 8 units/acre) and AG -2, Agricultural -2- (up to 1 unit/10 acres) to C/I, Commercial/ Industrial Node, while simultaneously redesignating 118.4 acres from C/I, Commercial/ Industrial Node, to PUB, Public Facilities. The subject tracts are under separate ownership. More specifically, the request involves reconfiguring two nodes. The proposed: amendment will remove 118.4 acres from the 9th Street S.W. (Oslo Road)/74th Avenue Commercial/ Industrial Node, while simultaneously adding 101.8 acres to the SR 60/I-95 Commercial/ Industrial Node. Granting the request would result in a decrease in the county's total amount of C/I designated land. Additionally, the request involves extending the county's Urban Service Area (USA) boundary approximately one-eighth of a mile to the west, on the north side of SR 60. That change would result in a USA expansion of approximately 29.5 acres. The property to be redesignated to C/I is located at the northeast corner of SR 60 and 102nd Avenue. This property, owned by George Lambeth, will be referred to as Subject Property 1. The request involves changing the land use designation of this tract from M-1, Medium -Density Residential -1 (up to 8 units/acre) and AG -2, Agricultural -2 (up to 1 unit/10 acres) to C/I, Commercial/ Industrial Node. A concurrent rezoning of Subject Property 1 is not part of this request. The property to be redesignated to PUB is located between 9th Street S.W. (Oslo Road) and 13th Street S.W. (Kelly Road), approximately one-half of a mile west of 74th Avenue. This property, recently acquired by Indian River County's Solid Waste Disposal District (SWDD) for future landfill expansion and to be the site of a recycling based waste conversion center, will be referred to as Subject Property 2. The request involves changing the land use designation of this tract from C/I to PUB. A concurrent rezoning of Subject Property 2 is not part of this request. The purpose of this request is to redesignate Subject Property 2 to reflect its current public ownership, as well as to facilitate the development of an industrial park on and around Subject Property 1. The creation of such a park implements policies of the county's Overall Economic Development Plan and of the Economic Development Element of the county's comprehensive plan. On September 26, 1996, the Planning and Zoning Commission voted 6-0 to recommend that the Board of County Commissioners transmit the proposed land use amendment to the State Department of Community Affairs (DCA) for their review. The Board of County Commissioners is now to decide whether or not the subject request is to be transmitted to DCA for their review. Existincr Land Use Pattern - Subject Property 1 Subject property 1 and land to the west consist of citrus groves. The east 72.3 acres of the site are zoned A-1, Agricultural District (up to 1 unit/5 acres), while the west 29.5 acres of the site and land west of the site are zoned A-2, Agricultural District (up to 1 unit/10 acres).
