On March 26, 1998, the Planning and Zoning Commission voted 6 to 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. Currently, the subject property is vacant land. To the west of the subject property are single-family homes, which are zoned RM -10, Multiple -Family Residential (up to 10 units/acre). To the south of the subject property is vacant land, which is zoned RM -10. Further to the south are neighborhood grocery stores, which are in a CL, Limited Commercial, zoning district. To the east of the subject property, across the railway tracks and Old Dixie Highway, are agricultural packing houses, which are in a CH, Heavy Commercial, zoning district. To the north of the subject property, across 45`' Street is a gas station and convenience store, which are in a CG, General Commercial, zoning district. The subject property and properties to the west and south are designated M-2, Medium -Density Residential -2, on the county future land use map. The M-2 designation permits residential densities up to 10 units/acre. Properties to the east and north of the subject property are designated C/I, a designation that permits commercial and industrial zoning districts. The subject property is not designated as environmentally important nor environmentally sensitive by the Comprehensive Plan. No wetlands nor native upland plant communities exist on site. The subject property is not within a 100 -year floodplain. The site is within the Urban Service Area of the county. Centralized potable water service is available to the site from the South County Reverse Osmosis Plant. Wastewater service is available to the site from the Central Regional Wastewater Treatment Plant. Abutting the subject area on the north is 450' Street. Classified as an urban collector roadway on the future roadway thoroughfare plan map, this segment of 45th Street is a two-lane road with approximately 30 feet of public road right-of-way. No improvements are scheduled for the portion of 45`h Street that abuts the subject area. The site is bounded on the west by 20 Avenue right-of-way. While platted as a local road, 24' Avenue is unimproved, and there are no plans to improve the roadway. Along the east boundary of the subject property is the Florida East Coast (FEC) railway line. In this section, an analysis of the reasonableness of the land use amendment request will be presented. Specifically, this analysis will address: • concurrency of public facilities; • consistency with the county's Comprehensive Plan; • compatibility with the surrounding area; and • potential impact on environmental quality.
