CITY COMMISSION CHAMBERS CITY HALL, SANFORD, FLORIDA MEMBERS PRESENT: James Valerino Bobby VonHerbulis Andrew Kutz Ross Robert Otto Garrett Carol Dennison MEMBERS ABSENT: Timothy Hudson Kevin Hipes- excused Mike Skat- excused OTHERS PRESENT: Jay Marder, Director of Engineering and Planning Russ Gibson, Land Development Coordinator Mr. Valerino called the meeting to order at 7:00 P.M. The first item on the Agenda was to hold a Public Hearing to consider a request to rezone property located at 1000 Upsala Road from AG, Agricultural, to PD, Planned Development. Craig Bryan, 5700 S.W. 34 St., Ste. 1307, Gainesville, was present. He stated that the property is high intensity planned development and it has been annexed into the City of Sanford. All infrastructure is in place to service this project. Mr. VonHerbulis questioned the 30' right -of -way along Wilson Avenue. Mr. Bryan stated that the 30' right -of -way that shows up on an old plat, with 15' that runs north of this section line adjacent to the 30', is in question now as to whether that right -of -way has ever been vacated or actually exists. They do not have appropriate title information to make a determination. They would like to explore dedication of the 30' right -of- way because it would greatly enhance the project, but there would have to be some cost sharing by either the City or adjacent property owners that would be impacted by the street. The right -of- way goes to Rinehart Road. Mr. Bryan stated that if they could detour the stipulation of having a gate to access that back entrance, he would prefer that this be explored. One thing about the design of the street system is that it would be rather difficult for a vehicle to negotiate thru the project because of the layout of the streets and utilize the area as a shortcut thru to Rinehart Road. The reason a gated access is MINUTES PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION MEE51NG OF NOVEMBER 4, 1999 PAGE 2 not of interest to the developer is that he had tried using gated access in the past and it causes a lot of problems with maintenance, people running thru the gates when they don't have the patience to wait, etc. Mr. Bryan stated that the site plan does not indicate a fence but there is an existing barbed -wire fence. Proposed is a landscaped buffer around the property, no fence. Mr. Kutz stated that he would like to see a stipulation that would indicate that the stormwater Popoff has to be controlled in a manner satisfactory to the City Engineer. Mr. Robert made a motion to approve the request to rezone 1000 Upsala Road from AG to PD based on consistency with the Future Land Use Plan designation, and with all of staff's recommendations with the exceptions of #5 and changing #3 to add the words "not required ". Seconded by Mr. Kutz. Mr. Kutz seconded so as to amend #1 clarifying to indicate that a site plan is required to be submitted for approval. Mr. VonHerbulis stated that this is a given, it is part of the Land Development Regulations. All in favor. Motion carried. The next item was the consideration for Brown's Gymnastic, a proposed 12,640 square foot gymnastics facility located at 901 Central Park Drive. Mr. Gibson stated that the site plan that was presented to the City was with the understanding that it was for a warehouse office facility. Subsequently, the applicant submitted a floor plan and some additional information that clearly demonstrated that it will be a gymnastics facility which is under our land use category of retail/sales /services, specifically, a personal service establishment and as such that specific use is not permitted by right in the RI -1 Zoning. It will require conditional use approval. The site plan would meet the requirements strictly for a warehouse and office use. Rita Brown, 740 Orange Avenue, Altamonte Springs, stated that she opened a center in the Gateway Plaza three years ago as a test site. Her students have grown to 250 and she needs a larger facility. She will close the center in the Gateway Plaza. She will also need a high ceiling height. She feels that there will be adequate parking. There are more parking spaces on this plan than at her other facilities. Ms. Brown stated that the reason for the two driveways was for safety. The parents can actually drive thru without having to leave thru the same entrance. Mr. VonHerbulis moved to table per Staff's recommendations until the applicant can come thru with a conditional use permit. Seconded by Ms. Dennison. All in favor. Motion carried. MINUTES PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION MEETING OF NOVEMBER 4, 1999 PAGE 3 Next was the discussion of the Comprehensive Plan and Land Development Regulation revisions. Mr. Marder stated that Staff had discovered that there were some inconsistencies with our public hearing requirements for conditional uses and zonings, which are one way, and dimensional variances are another. We advertise 10 days in advance for one and 15 and 5 for another. We need to clean up things like this. Considering right now at the Mayor's insistence, the consideration of side and rear lot line easements. We require them across the board now. Mr. Robert moved to approve the Minutes as circulated. Seconded by Ms. Dennison. All in favor. Motion carried. There being no further business, the meeting adjourned at 8:30 P.M.
