00 PAGi 61 <br />Second, project perimeter buffering provides physical <br />screening and separation from adjacent properties and 4th <br />Street right-of-way. Such PD buffering features will provide <br />screening for sight and noise. <br />Third, lot dimensions along the perimeter of the project have <br />been designed to provide lots comparable to normally sized RS - <br />3 lots. Also, the smallest project lots are located <br />internally to the project away from adjacent property owners. <br />RECOMMENDATION: <br />Based upon the analysis performed, staff recommends that the Board <br />of County Commissioners grant the requested PD special exception <br />approval and corresponding request for waivers with the following <br />conditions: <br />1. That prior to the issuance of a land development permit for <br />the project, the applicant shall: <br />a. Apply for and obtain from planning staff a mining permit <br />exemption subject to the criteria of LDR section <br />934.04(7)(b). <br />b. Obtain approval from the county for the design of the 4th <br />Street eastbound left turn lane improvements at the <br />intersection of 4th Street and the project entrance road. <br />C. Depict the required 8' wide bikepath along the site's 4th <br />Street frontage. <br />2. That prior to the issuance of a certificate of completion for <br />Phase 2 of the project: the deceleration and turn lane <br />improvements at the intersection of 4th Street and the project <br />entrance road shall be completed, and deemed acceptable by the <br />public works department. <br />3. Caribbean Fruit Fly host plants shall be prohibited within the <br />Stonebridge North PD with said prohibition enforceable through <br />county code enforcement action. In addition, the developer <br />shall include in the covenants and deed restrictions filed <br />with the final plat a section that restricts the use of <br />ornamental and exotic plants that are known host plants for <br />insects which may infest citrus trees. <br />Planning Director Stan Boling reviewed the project and advised <br />that most of the lots exceed or are close to RS -3 requirements, 2.9 <br />units per acre. Director Boling also noted a correction to be made <br />to the chart on Page 6 of the Memorandum - the lot size of the west <br />perimeter lots should read 1114,000" rather than 1110,000" square <br />feet. <br />Chairman Adams questioned how many minimum sized lots were <br />included, and Director Boling advised there were 58 internal <br />similarly sized lots. <br />The Chairman opened the public hearing and asked if anyone <br />wished to be heard in this matter. There being none, she closed <br />the public hearing. <br />DECEMBER 17, 1996 54 <br />
