AGENDA MEMORANDUM
MEETING DATE: July 10, 2006
FROM: Laura McElhanon, AICP
Community Development Director
SUBJECT: Ordinance adopting the Small Scale Comprehensive Plan Amendment: Anita F. Valdez
Staff Recommendation
The Planning staff and Planning Commission recommend adoption of the proposed Ordinance approving the small-scale comprehensive plan amendment to the City’s adopted Growth Management Plan.
Analysis
The project site is approximately 9.9 acres. The general location is south of S.R. 44 (South Street) and west of Caballo Rd. The project site is ten (10) or less acres and is, therefore, considered a small-scale comprehensive land use plan amendment. The City will notify the Florida Department of Community Affairs of the plan amendment and the Department will review the project site area to confirm that it is ten (10) acres or less. At that time, the Department will determine that it is a local issue and not subject to Department review.
Currently, the property is undeveloped and the proposed uses are multi-family residential and commercial. The surrounding Future Land Use Map designations are to the north City I (Industrial) and County Urban, to the east and south County Urban, and to the west City High Density Residential. The existing Land Use designation for the property is County Urban. The proposed future land use designation of City Medium Density Residential is consistent with the City’s adopted Growth Management Plan.
The Planning Commission held a public hearing on the application on June 8, 2006 and by a vote of 4 to 0, recommended approval.
Options
1. Approve the requested small scale comprehensive plan amendment to City Medium Density Residential.
2. Disapprove the proposed small scale comp plan amendment, thereby allowing the County to retain jurisdiction over land use and future development.
3. Other such action as the Commission may deem appropriate.
Fiscal Impact
This
small-scale comprehensive plan amendment will have no direct fiscal impact on
the City of Leesburg. Submission
