AGENDA MEMORANDUM
MEETING DATE: May 11, 2009
FROM: Bill Wiley, AICP, Community Development Director
SUBJECT: Ordinance for Small Scale Comprehensive Plan Amendment for Felipe Estrada Property
Staff Recommendation
The Planning staff and Planning Commission recommend approval of the proposed small-scale comprehensive plan amendment to the City’s adopted Growth Management Plan.
Analysis
This property was annexed and comp planned in to the City in 1998 by the City. The current comp plan designation on the property of City Institutional has caused a problem for the owner who is trying to get a reverse mortgage on his residence. The change in comp plan designation to General Commercial will allow him to refinance his home. The project site is approximately 1.85 acres. The property is generally located on the north side of C.R. 470, east of the Florida Turnpike. 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 a single family residential home with some accessory uses. The surrounding Future Land Use Map designations around the subject property are Institutional to the north and west, General Commercial to the south and Public to the east. The existing Land Use designation for the subject property is Institutional. The proposed future land use designation of City General Commercial, which is consistent with the City’s adopted Growth Management Plan and would allow for the development of the property for residential and commercial uses.
The Planning Commission held a public hearing on the application on April 23, 2009 and by a vote of 7 to 0, recommended approval.
Options
1. Approve the requested small scale comprehensive plan amendment to City General Commercial.
2. Other such action as the Commission may deem appropriate.
Fiscal Impact
There is no fiscal impact to the City.
