Staff Proposed "2nd Alternative" LDR Amendment
Director of Planning Roland DeBlois utilized PowerPoint slides to present the
proposed Land Development Regulation (LDR) Amendments related to off-site
accessory landscaping services on agriculturally zoned (A-1) land.
Background was presented, beginning with the March 5, 2019 Commission
meeting wherein residents expressed concerns regarding Caribbean Lawn and
Landscaping's business model, which they felt violated existing zoning
regulations. The Board directed staff to reassess zoning requirements to better
balance the needs of agriculture and commercial business.
The issue returned at the June 18, 2019 Commission meeting, where staff
presented a proposed LDR amendment (1st Alternative) defining allowable
accessory services on A-1 zoned land; the Board directed the Agriculture
Advisory Committee (AAC) to review the proposal and return with
recommendations. The presentation continued pursuant to AAC discussions.
Director DeBlois then provided details of staff's refined LDR proposal (2nd
Alternative), which would allow off-site accessory landscaping businesses
Indian River County Florida Page 8
Board of County Commissioners
Meeting Minutes — Final March 3, 2020
subject to certain criteria and approval by the Planning and Zoning Commission
under an administrative permit review. Additionally, two publicly submitted
LDR amendment proposals had been filed and were being presented for the
Board's consideration: the Hendrix proposal suggested criteria for special
exception use; the Simmons/Campbell proposal would eliminate off-site
accessory landscaping services in A-1 zones. It was noted that any LDR
amendment would apply to future businesses, and existing businesses would be
grandfathered -in under LDR Chapter 904 regulations.
During discussion, Commissioner O'Bryan expressed his concerns regarding
staff's 2nd Alternative proposal and the attempt to quantify an accessory use
business. Chairman Adams was disinclined to pass regulations that were too
limiting to the mixed-use nature ofA-1 zoned land. Additional discussion
continued between Commissioners and staff regarding the LDR proposals,
balanced regulations, and hypothetical scenarios.
The Chairman opened the Public Hearing.
The following people spoke before the Board:
Ken Hendrix, 6220 1st Street SW, detailed his LDR proposal, though he now
supported the Simmons/Campbell proposal. He provided historic information
on the area to support his comments.
John Terry, 37th Street, disagreed with the ruling that allowed this type of
commercial business in an agricultural area, and supported the
Simmons/Campbell amendment.
The Chairman called a recess at 10:48 a.m., and reconvened the meeting at
10:55 a.m., with all Board members present.
Spencer Simmons, 7350 37th Street, clarified his initial complaint to the Board.
He presented his LDR proposal's rationale for eliminating off-site lawn mowing
service businesses on agricultural land, and spoke against grandfathering
existing businesses.
Jodi Velde, 6300 1st Street SW, representing Tropical Property Management,
informed that landscape debris was recognized as an agricultural product by the
State of Florida.

Meeting Minutes — Final March 3, 2020
10.A.3. 20-1347
Tim Campbell, 7330 37th Street, posited that commercial businesses were
being established on agricultural land in order to pay less tax, and displayed
supporting documents.
Marilyn C. Ingram, 6985 37th Street, voiced concern that a precedent had been
set, opening the door to future commercialization of the neighborhood.
Amy Simmons, 7350 37th Street, expressed that the permitting process was
flawed.
There being no further speakers, the Chairman closed the Public Hearing.
Discussion resumed with Commissioners and staff providing input on the three
proposals to amend existing LDRs. County Attorney Dylan Reingold provided
guidance on the LDR amendment process, grandfathering existing businesses,
and freezing new businesses under the Pending Ordinance Doctrine.
A motion was made by. Commissioner Solari, seconded by Vice Chairman
Flescher, to deny staffs 2nd Alternative. Ordinance amendments presented to the
Board. Additionally, the Board requested that staff return with a new Ordinance
which included language eliminating off-site commercial landscaping
businesses, particularly entailing lawn maintenance, from operating on
agriculturally zoned land, while grandfathering existing businesses. The motion
carried by the following vote:
Aye:, 4- Vice Chairman Flescher, Commissioner Zorc, Commissioner O'Bryan, and
Commissioner Solari
Nay: 1 - Chairman Adams
The Chairman called a recess at 11:49 a.m., and reconvened the meeting at 11:55
