Planned Development zoning district. Owner: Seminole Towne Center L /P; representative: Richard Merkel. Tom Schneider represented the request. He stated that they were requesting a modification to the first of staff's recommendations. Mr. Schneider requested that the final parking detail be approved through the administrative process. He asked that the commission recommend the approval of the site plan conditioned upon the final parking detail being approved at staff level. MINUTES PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION MEETING OF OC'T'OBER 7, 1993 PAGE 2 Mr. Marder stated that the parking detail issue, due to the engineering details considered at staff level, was being resolved. The end islands need to be raised due to the traffic circulation safety pattern. Mr. Schneider stated that what was shown on the previous site plan was that certain end islands would be raised and landscaped as opposed to all end islands being raised and landscaped. He stated that the issue is if unlandscaped islands are to be raised. Mr. Speer stated that he didn't understand why City staff would think about having the end islands raised 4 with concrete. Mr. Schneider explained that the position taken by the City was that the raised concrete islands discourages people from parking at the edge of the ring road. Mr. Speer stated that the policing of this was for the Police Department and the Mall Security. Mr. Schneider stated that in other malls, typically they have raised islands around curves and entrys. He stated that he did not think that each island needs to be raised as opposed to the City wanting each raised. Mr. harder stated that City Staff had done a considerable amount of research on the parking detail. This was a technical engineering type detail and there are strong feelings on this at Staff level. Various shopping centers had been reviewed and a clear example of what not to do in a shopping center can be seen at the Altamonte Mall. There is a considerable amount of uncontrolled and improper parking. Parking in striped islands blocks the view of traffic. It makes for a safer on -site vehicular circulation pattern to have the raised islands with the stop signs where there is an access out to the ring road. Mr. Schneider stated that on the variance request for the consolidation of landscaping, it specifically showed painted end islands. Mr. Brooks moved for approval subject to staff's recommendations of items 2, 3,4 (attached) and based on having flexibility and compromise of an amicable decision by both the developer and the City on item no. 1. seconded by Ms. Holt - Miller. Mr Speer asked if a developer who accepts this type of decision on the site plan can come back to the City if no agreement could be reached. Mrs. Sonnenberg stated that they can always come back on an appeal. All in favor. Motion carried. The next item for consideration was the Site Plan for Florida Solar, an office/warehouse use, located at 235 Coastline Road in a RI -1, Restricted Industrial zoning district. owner: C.B.C.
