the amount of open space on site from 7.5% to over 15%. Staff has worked with the applicant <br />to ensure that, via the PD plan, a significant portion of the open space increase will result in <br />expanded landscape areas along the site's U.S. 1 and 12th Street frontages. <br />Parking: <br />Required by Conventional Parking Requirements: <br />Required by Parking Study Requirement: <br />Provided: <br />857 spaces (based on Chapter <br />954 conventional criteria) <br />578 spaces <br />752 spaces <br />Note: Pursuant to Section 954.08 of the parking LDRs, a non -concurrent parking study may <br />be used to assess the parking requirements for mixed use developments, such as the proposed <br />redevelopment project. The applicant submitted such a study which was reviewed and <br />"approved" by planning and traffic engineering staff. At its December 13, 2001 meeting, the <br />PZC approved the provision of 752 spaces for this project, based on justification provided via <br />the parking study. <br />The subject parking study was conducted over a three day span (Wednesday, Friday, and <br />Saturday) from 7.00 a.m. until 8:45 p.m. at existing "mixed use" shopping centers similar to <br />the one proposed. For each of these sample locations, the study deteiinined a peak parking <br />space demand, adjusted that demand figure for peak season conditions, and added a 153/4 <br />"safety factor'. The result was a "safe" parking rate of one space per 257.4 square feet of <br />building area. This rate is similar to the rate approved by the Planning and Zoning <br />Commission via a parking study conducted for the Roseland Plaza shopping center that <br />allowed development of the Woody's BBQ restaurant at that shopping center. <br />Based upon the actual number of spaces proposed, the parking rate provided via the conceptual <br />plan is approximately 1 space per 200 square feet of commercial building area. Under the <br />submitted conceptual PD plan the developer will be required to provide the 752 spaces <br />proposed. A recommended condition of approval requires the provision of 752 spaces for the <br />project. <br />Setbacks: <br />Front <br />Required: 25' (CG and PD) <br />Provided: 25' east (U.S 1 frontage) <br />25' south (12th Street frontage) <br />Side <br />Required: <br />Proposed: <br />Rear <br />Required: <br />Proposed: <br />10' (CG); 10' (PD) <br />25' <br />10' (CG); 10' (PD) <br />25' <br />January 8, 2002 <br />
