OCTOBER 28, 20'19 AGENDA
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Commission
PREPARED BY: Jordan Smith, AICP, PP — Senior Planner
SUBMITTED BY: Norton N. Bonaparte, Jr., City Manages
SUBJECT: Amendments to the City of Sanford Land Delopment Regulations
STRATEGIC PRIORITIES: ;7
❑ Unify Downtown & the Waterfront
❑ Promote the City's Distinct Culture
® Update Regulatory Framework
❑ Redevelop and Revitalize Disadvantaged Communities
SYNOPSIS:
Amendments to Article IV of the City of Sanford Land Development Regulations have been
prepared to implement the Strategic Priority and update Regulatory Framework.
1
FISCAL/STAFFING STATEMENT:
A review of and revision of the regulatory documents was performed by staff.
BACKGROUND:
Transit Oriented Development (TOD) is a growing trend to create vibrant, livable, and sustainable
communities. TOD is the creation of compact, walkable, pedestrian -oriented, mixed-use
communities centered around train corridors. Successful TOD reinforces both the community and
the transit system.
To maximize benefits of the investment in transportation infrastructure, the Florida Department of
Transportation (FDOT) and SunRail corridor communities are working together to create a
relationship between the rail line and the surrounding station areas.
The Sanford SunRail station is located near the intersection of State Road 46 and Airport.
Boulevard. The station has a unique opportunity for surrounding land owners, local residents and
community leaders. The station is a short distance from historic downtown Sanford as well as to
the Seminole Town Center Mall and surrounding residential developments.
Below is a list of the LDR Articles proposed for amendment as well as the suggested changes. In
addition, attached is a draft of the Article proposed strikethrough/underline with the modifications.
0 Article IV — Section. 4.3 — Zoning Amendments and Planned Development Projects
o Added automatic time extension to expired Planned Developments with elements
of TOD as follows:
... any planned development order that has expired prior to the effective date of this
Ordinance and which related to a transit -oriented development (TOD) or had
elements of the development which pertained to a TOD, shall be automatically
extended until April 1, 2020 within which time the property owner may apply for a
revision to the development order or implement the development order, as
previously approved; provided, however, that the densities and intensities of the
development order are approved if the development order is extended and shall be
approvable if an application is filed to revise the development order and the revised
development order is approved prior to April 1, 2020.
Consistency with the Comprehensive Plan Goals, Objectives and Policies
Per Florida Statutes 163.3194(1)(b), Land Development Regulations must be consistent with the
Comprehensive Plan which has been adopted. Objectives and Policies of the Comprehensive Plan
that are relevant to this application are listed below:
Future Land Use Element
OBJECTIVE FLU 1.7: Encourage Mixed Use Development. The City shall maintain and enforce
LDRs which include provisions for encouraging establishment of strategically located mixed use
planned development.
Policy FLU 1.7.1: Implement Cluster Design Techniques through Planned Development. The
City shall implement a planned development concept in order to provide a voluntary management
strategy for coordinating and aligning objectives of developers with those of the City Commission,
especially preserving natural resources through clustered development within uplands. Nothing in
this Plan shall limit or modify the rights of any person to complete any development that has been
authorized as a Development of Regional Impact (DRI) pursuant to Chapter 380, F.S., or who has
been issued a final development order and development has commenced and is continuing in good
faith. Where a developer requests an extension of a time constraint imposed in a development order,
the City Commission shall reserve the authority to invoke new conditions in extending development
rights based on:
• Changes in conditions surrounding the impacted land use conditions in the vicinity;
• Evolving issues surrounding infrastructure levels of service;
• Impacts on natural resources; and/or
• Other related issues impacting the nature of the proposed planned development.
OBJECTIVE FLU 1.11: Maintain Waterfront/Downtmvn Business District (WDBD). The
Waterfront/ Downtown Business District is designed to provide centralized residential, governmental,
cultural, institutional, and general commercial activities within the downtown and waterfront urban
area, while preserving the City's historic character and cultural heritage through context -sensitive
design. The designation provides a planning and management framework for promoting the
revitalization, development and redevelopment of the Lake Monroe waterfront and the historic
downtown commercial area as designated on the Future Land Use Map. This expanded land use
category includes the City's historic central business district, and is in response to the goals contained
in the Lake Monroe Waterfront and Downtown Sanford Community Redevelopment Area Plan. The
purpose of the WDBD is to:
0 Generate a revitalization effort that attracts private sector investment and strengthens the City's
economy;
• Establish the district as a Regional center;
• Strengthen public/private partnerships;
• Enhance the livability of North Seminole County by encouraging improved residential, retail,
educational, cultural and entertainment opportunities; and
• Provide the framework for redevelopment and infill.
The WDBD is located in Seminole County's Urban Service Area, and is comprised of those areas
that are in close proximity to, and have historically, been most influenced by the St. Johns River
and Lake Monroe. The Waterfront/Downtown Business District is designated as the City's central
business district. The western portion of the WDBD contains commercial uses based upon the
railway line, as well as significant institutional, residential, and recreational facilities located
therein.
Policy FLU 1.11.1: Maintain Density/Intensity Standards. Intensity and density standards
within the WDBD have been designed to attract quality private investment and stimulate the
vibrant atmosphere of mixed-use activity that is typical of a thriving downtown. Developers in the
WDBD may utilize the Urban Infill Redevelopment (UIR) program, outlined in. Policy FLU 2.2.7
to further maximize floor area ratios and multifamily residential densities. The maximum intensity
of nonresidential development, other than industrial, measured as a floor area ratio is 2.0 for the
areas east of French Avenue, and 0.35 for the areas west of French Avenue. These floor area ratios
are intended to illustrate the amount of development on both specific parcels and in the district
overall. However, through the implementation of the UIR program, individual developments may
exceed these maximum floor area ratios and residential densities. The maximum density for
residential development shall be 50 units per acre. The maximum floor area ratio for industrial
uses shall be 0.50. Distribution of specific densities and intensities for this district shall be in
accordance with Table FLU -2.
OBJECTIVE FLU 1.12: Promote Westside Industry and Commerce (WIC). The "Westside
Industry and Commerce" (WIC) area is a mixed use designation intended to promote the development
of employment centers in the vicinity of the West SR 46 corridor and the commuter rail station. The
corridor's proximity to I-4 as well as SR 417 and the SunRail commuter line provides access to
Regional markets and a substantial labor force. The CSX Main Rail Line also provides a
transportation amenity of Regional significance.
Policy FLU 1.12.1 Establish parameters for development within the WIC. The WIC
designation shall be limited to that area of Sanford generally bound by the CSX railroad to the
north and SR 417 to the south. The WIC designation permits both a vertical and horizontal land use
mix of commercial, office, residential, and the maximum intensity for commercial, office, and
industrial development as a floor area ratio is 0.50. The residential density shall be a minimum of 10
dwelling units per acre and a maximum of 20 dwelling units per acre, where compatible with adjacent
uses. Distribution of specific densities and intensities for this district shall be in accordance with Table
FLU -2.
New development shall be required to address infrastructure needs, provision of services,
development phasing, and development intensity and land use compatibility as part of an
integrated design scheme which includes very detailed strategies and techniques for resolving
development impacts. PD proposals in the WIC area may be the subject of negotiated development
agreements. No development order shall be granted prior to approval by the City of the development
agreement. Development within the WIC area existing prior to the adoption of this Plan will be
"grandfathered."
All new development in the Westside Industry and Commerce Area shall comply with the
performance criteria outlined in Policy FLU 1.1.7, as well as the following:
• Requirements and procedures for obtaining a WIC mixed use Future Land Use Map
designation and appropriate zoning;
• Standards for controlled access and internal circulation, including cross access easements and
joint use of driveways;
• Development standards for Gateway Corridor Development Districts, including
requirements for buffer yards, landscaping, and screening, off-street parking, and signage;
and
• Planning and management criteria regulating the land use mix, intensity, and qualitative
standards for assuring land use compatibility and consistency with the Comprehensive Plan.
OBJECTIVE FLU 2.2: Implement Redevelopment and Renewal Program. The City shall
continue to implement redevelopment programs within the following target areas:
• Goldsboro area, as designated by the Choice Neighborhoods Initiative; ;
• Georgetown area, situated between Sanford and Mellonville Avenues and North Celery
Avenue;
• Downtown Historic Residential District;
• Waterfront/Downtown Business District;
• The US 17-92 Transportation Concurrency Exception Area (TCEA); and
• The Seminole Towne Center.
The City shall continue to cant' out neighborhood rehabilitation programs directed towards
improving housing conditions and neighborhood environments characterized in the Housing Element
as having a high degree of substandard housing. The City shall also pursue revitalization of the
expanded historic district including adaptation of the "traditional neighborhood" program within the
expanded district and development of incentives for redevelopment which furthers the plan for historic
districts revitalization and preservation of historic resources. Redevelopment activities are identified
in the policies listed below. This objective shall be measured through the implementation of the
following policies.
Policy FLU 2.2.5: Redevelopment of Waterfront and Historic Downtown. The City shall
continue to manage the redevelopment of Lake Monroe waterfront and the downtown historic
districts consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. Redevelopment planning activities shall direct
highest priority to areas with local historical significance, especially areas along the waterfront or
within and adjacent to the Downtown area. The City shall continue to coordinate public and private
resources necessary to initiate needed improvements and/or redevelopment within these areas.
Furthermore, the City shall continue to analyze potential alternative scenarios for redeveloping the
downtown waterfront corridor along Lake Monroe. The focus shall be on achieving a more active,
attractive, and fully -utilized waterfront that includes residential, retail, and commercial activities.
The Lake Monroe corridor redevelopment shall continue to emphasize design measures which
promote a unique waterfront development pattern reinforced by significant pedestrian oriented
urban design amenities and a mix of uses.
Policy FLU 2.2.7: Promote Urban Infill Redevelopment. The City shall encourage the
development and redevelopment of parcels in otherwise built-up areas where public facilities, such
as sewer systems, roadways, schools, and recreation areas, are already in place through the use of
Urban Infill Redevelopment (UIR) projects. Such projects shall be encouraged especially within
the TCEAs where redevelopments are exempt from transportation concurrency requirements. UIR
projects involve a land use or mix of land uses that do not conform to typical land use categories
or development forms. In addition, these land uses are designed and located in a special or
innovative way with special functions or characteristics that are beneficial to the City and the
citizens of Sanford as a whole. UIR projects shall be permitted within any land use designation as
conditional uses.
Policy FLU 2.2.8: Promote Public and Private Sector Partnerships. The City shall coordinate
redevelopment issues with the private sector in promoting mobilization of public and private resources
necessary to effectively carry out redevelopment efforts, especially along the Lake Monroe waterfront
corridor and within the Waterfront Conceptual Development Plan area.
OBJECTIVE FLU 2.3: Maintain US Highway 17-92 and Downtown TCEAs. The US 17-92
and Downtown Community Redevelopment Area is hereby established as a TCEA to facilitate
urban infill and redevelopment, reduce the adverse impact of transportation concurrency on
redevelopment, provide strategies for mobility, urban design, mixed uses, and network
connectivity, and create a vibrant community for existing and future residents by achieving a
balanced mix of sustainable and functional land uses.
Policy FLU 2.3.1: Create land use strategies for the US 17-92 Corridor TCEA. As part of
the City's TCEA Mobility Plan or other visioning efforts, the City shall consider land use
strategies, including regulatory requirements and potential development incentives for properties
within the US 17-92 TCEA to promote high quality mixed use developments at appropriate
densities and intensities that can adequately support public transportation and promote the use of
bicycling and walking bicycle and pedestrian modes. Development and redevelopment within the
TCEA shall occur at densities and intensities that support multi -modal transportation services.
Policy FLU 2.3.2: Promote Redevelopment within US 17-92 Corridor. The City shall continue
to work with Seminole County to promote development and redevelopment within the US 17-92
corridor.
Policy FLU 2.3.3: Promote Economic Development Support for Redevelopment. The City
shall continue to promote economic development through private sector investment through the
following actions:
a. Improve the investment image of the US 17-92 corridor and use strategic public
investments to stimulate private investments;
b. Strive to make the US 17-92 corridor competitive with major activity centers and
corridors within the City and County;
c. Expand the economic base of the US 17-92 corridor by retaining existing jobs while
creating new and diverse employment opportunities;
d. Promote the US 17-92 corridor's unique economic and market assets as a corridor of
activities that include a full range of commercial, office, institutional, community,
residential and neighborhood services;
e. Maximize marketing opportunities to promote the corridor; and
f. Encourage partnerships among property owners and private and public sector groups to
implement redevelopment projects to achieve the redevelopment goals.
Mobility
Policy M 1.1.4: Consider Mobility in Land Design. During the site plan review process, new
development and redevelopment projects shall be encouraged to consider a range of modes as a means
to address mobility issues. The City shall use land use density and site plan layout/phasing that will
support travel demand, shortened trip lengths, higher internal capture, and balanced trip demand. In
addition, the City shall explore incentives (such as credits) to encourage design that accommodates a
variety of modes.
OBJECTIVE M 1.2: Maintain Transportation Concurrency Exception Areas (TCEA). The US
17-92 Corridor and the Downtown Sanford TCEA/CRA, as illustrated by Map 4, shall be
maintained to reduce adverse impacts of concurrency and to promote compact urban
redevelopment and infill development to fulfill the City's redevelopment goals. Transportation
programs and improvements within the TCEA shall emphasize pedestrian and transit modes of
transportation. The TCEA will promote the redevelopment objective through providing mobility
for all modes, implementing good urban design principles, achieving a balanced mix of land uses
and promoting network connectivity.
