• Inter -connected Parking: The proposed conceptual plan provides two driveway stub -outs to the property to the north These stub -outs will facilitate future inter -connections when the property to the north redevelops. The western stub -out will facilitate the future extension of 10th Avenue into the subject site. 16. Aesthetic Controls: Through the PD rezoning process, the following aesthetic controls have been committed to for the project: a. Architectural: Through the PD rezoning request, staff indicated to the applicant that it would support the PD rezoning and reduced open space standard provided the applicant meet as much of the S.R. 60 Corridor Plan Criteria as possible. The applicant is proposing plans that generally meet the S.R. 60 Corridor plan criteria for architectural elements [especially along the front (east side) facade] and colors. This includes a complete new facade along the shopping center building east side, and upgrades on all three remaining sides In addition, the two future out -parcel restaurant buildings will meet S.R. 60 architectural requirements. b. Foundation Plantings: There will be significant foundation plantings on the south side (12'h Street) side of the shopping center building. In addition, foundation planting area will be added to the east and west sides. The two outparcel buildings will comply with S R. 60 foundation planting requirements. c. Signage: The applicant has agreed to meet a modified version of the S.R. 60 sign criteria. All new freestanding signs will meet the S.R. 60 Corridor criteria. This includes monument design and size of copy area allowed. The existing mall pylon sign will be rehabilitated to come closer to the S.R. 60 requirements (reduced height, landscaped base illumination standards met). Facade sign copy area for both the mall building and outparcel buildings will be limited to 75% of the size of the copy area allowed county -wide (S.R. 60 requirements are 50% of the county -wide allowance). d. Lighting: The building lighting will meet the S.R. 60 Corridor criteria. Parking lot lighting will comply with S.R. 60 standards closer to the U.S. 1 and l2" Street perimeters, while standard county lighting standards will apply in the remaining parking areas internal to the site. 17. Concurrency: The applicant will obtain a conditional concurrency certificate prior to consideration by the Board. This will satisfy the concurrency requirement for conceptual PD approval and the rezoning request 18. Surrounding Land Use and Zoning: North. Car lot/CG South: 12'h Street, Staples, Bike shop/CG, CH East: Various Businesses/CG West: FEC Railroad, AT&T Cablevision/IG 19. Public Benefits: A letter from the developer is attached which describes the public benefits provided by the proposed project. It is staffs position that the main public benefit proposed through this PD plan that could not be achieved through a conventional approval process is the increased aesthetic criteria. These PD district criteria will result in more aesthetic architecture, site lighting, signage, and enhanced landscaping on the site. January 8, 2002 60 b 071 =n„
