6B BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY PLACEMENT: PUBLIC HEARINGS PRESET: TITLE: ORINOCO DEVELOPMENTS, LLC – REQUEST FOR REZONING AGENDA ITEM DATES: MEETING DATE: 3/24/2015 COMPLETED DATE: 3/12/2015 COUNTY ATTORNEY: 3/2/2015 ASSISTANT COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR: 3/9/2015 REQUESTED BY: DEPARTMENT: PREPARED BY: Name: Terence P. McCarthy, Esq., McCarthy, Summers, et al Growth Management Catherine Riiska, MS, PWS Name: Orinoco Developments, LLC Senior Planner Procedures: Quasi-Judicial Procedures EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: This is a request for a zoning district change from the current R-3A, Liberal Multifamily District, to the COR-1, Commercial Office/Residential District, or the most appropriate zoning district. The subject property consists of approximately 1.75 acres located on the east side of US-1 approximately 800 feet south of Cove Road. APPROVAL: LEG ACA CA 8068b62a 1 of 88 BACKGROUND/RELATED STRATEGIC GOAL: The subject property consists of approximately 1.75 acres located on the east side of US-1 approximately 800 feet south of Cove Road. The site is vacant and undeveloped, contains a portion of upland preserve established as a buffer to an adjacent off-site wetland and is located within the Primary Urban Services District. The subject property is zoned R-3A, Liberal Multifamily District, and is designated Commercial Office/Residential (COR) on the Future Land Use Map (FLUM) of the County’s Comprehensive Growth Management Plan (CGMP). The R-3A district was incorporated as a Category C district in the current Article 3 zoning code. The subject of this application is a request for a zoning change to the COR-1, Commercial Office/Residential 1 District. This request for a zoning change is classified as a mandatory rezoning. The COR future land use designation restricts the use of the land to those uses that are provided for in the CGMP and the implementation zoning district(s) contained in the Article 3 zoning regulations. It allows for residential/commercial uses restricted to professional and business offices, limited service establishments, financial institutions, live-work units, residential development or any combination of these uses. The applicant intends to use the property for purposes pursuant to the allowances provided for by the Commercial Office/Residential land use policies. Pursuant to Section 10.18.D. of the Martin County Land Development Regulations, the subject of this application was reviewed by the Local Planning Agency in a public hearing on March 5, 2015. There are three (3) “straight” zoning districts that are available to properly implement the COR land use policies of the CGMP. They are the CO Commercial Office, the COR-1 Commercial Office/Residential 1 and the COR-2 Commercial Office/Residential 2 districts. In addition to these districts, the applicant has the PUD, Planned Unit Development district option which provides more flexibility to the applicant in exchange for more control by the County including a commitment to a specific use and site plan for the property. The choice of the most appropriate district for the subject property is a policy decision the Local Planning Agency (LPA) and the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) are asked to consider based on the “standards for amendments to the zoning atlas” provided in Section 3.2 E.2., Land Development Regulations (LDR), Martin County Code (MCC). In the review of a proposed amendment to the Zoning Atlas, the Board of County Commissioners shall consider the following: a. Whether the proposed amendment is consistent with all applicable provisions of the Comprehensive Plan; and, b. Whether the proposed amendment is consistent with all applicable provisions of the LDR; and, c. Whether the proposed district amendment is compatible with the character of the existing land uses in the adjacent and surrounding area and the peculiar suitability of the property for the proposed zoning use; and, d. Whether and to what extent there are documented changed conditions in the area; and 8068b62a 2 of 88 e. Whether and to what extent the proposed amendment would result in demands on public facilities; and f. Whether and to what extent the proposed amendment would result in a logical, timely and orderly development pattern which conserves the value of existing development and is an appropriate use of the County's resources; and g. Consideration of the facts presented at the public hearings. The staff report provides an analysis of the standards. The Local Planning Agency considered the rezoning request at a public hearing on March 5, 2015. By a vote of 3-0, the LPA recommended approval of the zoning change from R-3A to COR-1. ISSUES: There are no unresolved issues associated with this rezoning. COUNTY ATTORNEY’S OFFICE LEGAL ANALYSIS Because this request involves the application of a policy to a specific rezoning application and site, it is a quasi-judicial decision. Quasi-judicial proceedings must be conducted with more formality than a legislative proceeding. In quasi-judicial proceedings, parties are entitled — as a matter of due process — to cross-examine witnesses, present evidence, demand that witnesses testify under oath, and demand a decision that is based on a correct application of the law and competent substantial evidence in the record. Suggested procedures to follow during consideration of this matter: Cautionary Note: It is advisable that Commissioners refrain from commenting on any of the presentation, items, evidence, witness testimony, or otherwise, until the Chair concludes the quasi-judicial components of the meeting and the Board begins its deliberations. The Commission may and should ask questions of any witnesses. 1. Chair announces this matter from the Agenda for the record. 2. Chair will inquire of the Commissioners regarding ex parte communications related to this matter and any disclosures that have not been previously filed with the Clerk. 3. Chair will ask that all staff witnesses, applicant witnesses and members of the public that intend to offer relevant and material evidence in this matter identify themselves. All witnesses should be asked to approach the “well” and be sworn in by the Clerk of Court or the Clerk’s designee. 4. Martin County staff should provide a brief introduction of the matter, to include substantive staff findings and relevant procedural history. Although Commissioners may 8068b62a 3 of 88 ask questions of staff at this time, Commissioners may want to refrain until the applicant has completed the applicant’s presentation. 5. Upon conclusion of staff’s brief introduction, the applicant may make a presentation and discuss any information in the application that the applicant deems appropriate. For this matter it is anticipated that the applicant should be provided no more than 45 minutes to present. However, depending upon questions from the Commissioners, examination of evidence, and cross examination of witnesses, it may be appropriate to extend the time to the extent necessary to ensure that due process has been provided. 6. Upon conclusion of the applicant’s presentation, the Commissioners may proffer questions for the applicant and staff regarding the matter. Questions should be designed to elicit relevant and material evidence concerning the matter. Comments concerning the credibility, the authenticity of the evidence, the weight of the evidence, or otherwise should not be made at this time. Such comments may be made during the Commission’s deliberations. 7. Upon conclusion of Commissioners’ questions, the Chair shall allow public comment regarding this matter. 8. Upon conclusion of public comment, the applicant should be offered an opportunity for rebuttal and/or final comments (maximum of 20 minutes). 9. Upon conclusion of the applicant’s rebuttal, staff should be offered an opportunity for any final comments. 10. After the conclusion of the quasi-judicial components set forth in paragraphs 1 through 9 above, the Chair shall close the public portion of the meeting and announce that no other evidence will be entertained or considered. Once the public portion of the meeting is closed, the Chair may entertain motions to approve, approve with modifications or deny the request for the alteration of the previously approved preserve area, and the Board should deliberate accordingly. Legal principles to be considered: Consideration of the legal principles that an appellate court would consider in the review of a quasi-judicial decision by a local government can provide guidance as the Board conducts this quasi-judicial proceeding. Quasi-judicial decisions are subject to a certiorari standard of review on appeal. The standard of review before the circuit court is as follows: 1) whether procedural due process was afforded, 2) whether the local tribunal observed the essential requirements of law, and 3) whether the local government’s decision was based on competent substantial evidence. One of the requirements of procedural due process is met when the parties have received notice of the meeting and are given an opportunity to be heard. Following the procedures outlined above will help support a finding that procedural due process was afforded. Another component of procedural due process is whether the applicant was given an opportunity to be heard by a neutral and impartial 8068b62a 4 of 88 decision-maker. There must be evidence in the record to support or deny a request. Therefore, a decision to approve or deny a request before the presentation of the evidence and testimony is concluded would not be appropriate. The essential requirements of law are met when the correct provisions of applicable law are applied in making the decision and the decision-maker does not abuse its legal authority in the process. A determination that a decision was based on competent substantial evidence requires that there must be testimony and evidence provided that is relevant and material to the determination. The evidence relied upon to sustain the ultimate findings should be sufficiently relevant and material to the matter so that a reasonable mind would accept it as adequate to support the conclusion reached. Testimony must have a factual basis. Generalized statements in support of or in opposition to a proposal should be disregarded even those from an expert. Relevant fact-based statements, whether expert or not should be considered. Citizen testimony is permissible and may constitute competent substantial evidence if it is fact-based. The facts upon which the testimony rests may be derived from relevant portions of the record or from other factual information provided in the application. The submittal of materials into the record such as maps, site plans, and traffic studies along with testimony based on professional experience and personal observations may form the basis for upholding a conclusion reached by a decision-maker. RECOMMENDED ACTION: RECOMMENDATION Move that the Board approve the Orinoco Developments, LLC, request to rezone from the R-3A, Liberal Multifamily District, to the COR-1, Commercial Office/Residential District for the subject property. ALTERNATIVE RECOMMENDATIONS A. Move that the Board continue the Orinoco Developments, LLC, Rezoning to a date certain. B. Move that the Board deny the Orinoco Developments, LLC, Rezoning and adopt the resolution of denial, setting forth the reasons for the denial.

Project description and analysis This is an application for a proposed amendment to the county Zoning Atlas for a Commercial Office/Residential (COR) district designation (Section 3.2.E, LDR). A Zoning District change from R3A to COR-1 is proposed for a 1.75-acre parcel of vacant land located on the east side of US-1 approximately 800 feet south of Cove Road. The site is vacant and undeveloped, contains a portion of upland preserve established as a buffer to an adjacent off-site wetland and is located within the Primary Urban Services District. The land use designation for the property on the Future Land Use Map (FLUM) of the County’s Comprehensive Growth Management Plan (CGMP) is Commercial Office/Residential (COR). This land use classification allows for residential/commercial uses restricted to professional and business offices, limited service establishments, financial institutions, live-work units, residential development or any combination of these uses. The current zoning on the property is R-3A, Liberal Multifamily District. The R-3A zoning was created in 1967 as a part of the County’s original zoning regulations and was carried over to the current Article 3, Zoning Districts, Land Development Regulations (LDR), Martin County Code (MCC) as a Category C district, which are intended to be used until a rezoning to a Category A district is needed or required to accommodate proposed future uses of the property. The Category A districts were created to implement the land use policies of the CGMP. The current R-3A zoning of the subject property is not inconsistent with the Commercial Office/Residential land use policies of the CGMP with the following restrictions: 1. If the Future Land Use Designation is Commercial Office/Residential, freestanding retail sales and service uses shall be prohibited. 9 of 88 Development Review Staff Report 2. Where a multifamily project is proposed adjacent to an existing single-family subdivision a transition zone shall be established between the two use types. The transition zone shall comply with the requirements set forth in Section 4.5.A.2.b. and any other applicable policies of the Comprehensive Growth Management Plan. There are three (3) “straight” zoning districts that are available to implement the COR land use policies of the CGMP. In addition to the “straight” zoning districts the PUD (Planned Unit Development) District is also available as a fifth option. The PUD District offers more design flexibility to applicants for proposed projects. In exchange the district requires additional benefits to the County and more controls by the County. The three (3) “straight” zoning districts include the CO (Commercial Office), COR-1 (Commercial Office/Residential 1) and COR-2 (Commercial Office/Residential 2) Districts. The CO District is generally used as a transition zone between more intense commercial areas and residential areas where a determination has been made that residential uses within this district are not appropriate. The COR-1 District is generally used as a transition zone between more intense commercial areas and residential areas, particularly in areas that were originally developed as residential but where a gradual conversion to transitional, nonresidential and mixed uses is warranted. The COR-2 District is generally used as a transition zone between more intense commercial areas and residential areas. Residential development is not a permittable use within the CO District. Residential use within the COR-1 and COR-2 Districts is allowable to a maximum density of 5.00 and 10.00 units per acre, respectively. The CO, COR-1 and COR-2 Districts were created to implement the policies for the Commercial Office/Residential (COR) land use classification. The choice of the most appropriate district for the subject property is a policy decision that the Local Planning Agency (LPA) and the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) are asked to consider based on the “standards for amendments to the zoning atlas” provided in Section 3.2 E.1., Land Development Regulations (LDR), Martin County Code (MCC). The following tables indicate the differences in the uses that are permitted, followed by the size and dimension requirements for the CO, COR-1 and COR-2 districts and the zoning regulations for the R-3A Liberal Multifamily District. For clarity, non-residential uses that are permitted, or not permitted, equally among all three districts are omitted in the excerpted table 3.11.1.

Standards for Amendments to the Zoning Atlas The Comprehensive Growth Management Plan (CGMP) states in Chapter 4, Section 4.4: “Goal 4.4 To eliminate or reduce uses of land that are inconsistent with community character or desired future land uses.” And, in Objective 4.4A. “To eliminate inconsistencies between the FLUM and the zoning maps and regulations.” The Martin County Land Development Regulations (LDR), Article 3, Section 3.2 E. provides the following “Standards for amendments to the Zoning Atlas.” 1. The Future Land Use Map of the CGMP (Comprehensive Growth Management Plan) establishes the optimum overall distribution of land uses. The CGMP also establishes a series of land use categories, which provide, among other things, overall density and intensity limits. The Future Land Use Map shall not be construed to mean that every parcel is guaranteed the maximum density and intensity possible pursuant to the CGMP and these Land Development Regulations. All goals, objectives, and policies of the CGMP shall be considered when a proposed rezoning is considered. The County shall have the discretion to decide that the development allowed on any given parcel of land shall be more limited than the maximum allowable under the assigned Future Land Use Category; provided, however, that the County shall approve some development that is consistent with the CGMP, and the decision is fairly debatable or is supported by substantial, competent evidence depending on the fundamental nature of the proceeding. If upon reviewing a proposed rezoning request the County determines that the Future Land Use designation of the CGMP is inappropriate, the County may deny such rezoning request and initiate an appropriate amendment to the CGMP. 2. In the review of a proposed amendment to the Zoning Atlas, the Board of County Commissioners 13 of 88 Page 5 of 18 Development Review Staff Report shall consider the following: a. Whether the proposed amendment is consistent with all applicable provisions of the Comprehensive Plan; and, The subject property is designated for Commercial Office/Residential (COR) land use on the Future Land Use Map (FLUM) of the Comprehensive Growth Management Plan (CGMP). The zoning implementation policies and requirements are contained in Article 3, Zoning Regulations, Land Development Regulations, Martin County Code identify three (3) “straight” zoning districts, including CO, COR-1 and COR-2, that are available to implement the COR future land use classification, in addition to the PUD Zoning option. Policy 4.13A.8.(1) of Chapter 4, Future Land Use Element, of the CGMP addresses the COR land use designation: Commercial Office/Residential development (COR). Martin County shall establish policies and criteria to guide mixed-use development. Commercial Office/Residential development shall be allocated to accessible sites adjacent to major thoroughfares. It shall also serve as a transitional use separating more intensive commercial uses from residential development. Office and residential development may be allocated along the outer fringe of core commercial areas where such development may encourage reinvestment in declining residential areas adjacent to commercial core areas. The COR future land use designation shall also be allocated to areas appropriately suited for Traditional Neighborhood Development, described under Goal 4.3. The development provisions for the standard COR zoning districts and the PUD zoning district are expressed below: (a)Development in the Commercial Office/Residential future land use designation shall be restricted to professional and business offices, limited service establishments, financial institutions, live-work units, residential development or any combination of these uses. Freestanding retail sales and service establishments shall be excluded from these areas. However, restaurants, certain service commercial uses, and limited commercial uses, as identified in the Land Development Regulations, may occupy 25 percent of the commercial square footage in a building. Residential storage facilities may be approved in areas designated COR, and the Land Development Regulations shall include criteria for review of such uses. However, the building shall be restricted to structures with small modules adaptive exclusively to storage of personal items of residential clients. Commercial tenants shall be expressly prohibited. The facility shall be designed to blend harmoniously with residential structures. The intensity of lot use, defined as floor area ratio (FAR), shall be governed by the parking standards of the Land Development Regulations. The maximum building coverage shall be 40 percent, and the minimum net lot size permitted in COR districts shall be 10,000 square feet. The minimum open space shall be 40 percent and the maximum building height shall be 30 feet. Multiple-family residential uses are encouraged to develop in areas designated for office 14 of 88 Page 6 of 18 Development Review Staff Report development at densities compatible with criteria cited in Policy 4.13A.7.(5) for High Density Residential development. The Land Development Regulations shall require appropriate landscaping and screening, including a vegetative berm system where feasible. Plant material and a decorative fence or wall shall be used to assure compatibility between established residential uses and proposed office developments. A bed and breakfast or other facilities for transient lodging, catering to seasonal residents, shall be permitted. Kitchen facilities shall be permitted to accommodate occupants visiting for periods exceeding the general motel trip duration of one to four nights. Approved transient lodging facilities existing as of the effective date of the CGMP shall be considered permitted in such an area. Landscaping, screening, buffering and similar design techniques shall be used to assure a smooth transition between residential structure types and densities. Residential use shall be allowed in the COR future land use designation as part of a mixed-use project as allowed under Goal 4.3 in any of the seven CRAs designated in Policy 4.2B.4. Residential densities shall be as provided in Policy 4.3A.2.. This application requests a rezoning of the property to the COR-1 Zoning District, which is one of the Category A zoning districts created specifically to implement the CGMP policies for lands designated Commercial/Office Residential on the Future Land Use Map of the CGMP. Additionally, the subject parcel is located on US-1 and adjacent to a parcel zoned COR-1 separating the subject property from existing residential development by approximately 250 feet, which is consistent with the CGMP COR criteria of “…accessible sites adjacent to major thoroughfares. It shall also serve as a transitional use separating more intensive commercial uses from residential development.” b. Whether the proposed amendment is consistent with all applicable provisions of the LDR; and, The subject property has a lot area of approximately 76,200 square feet and a lot width, fronting US-1, of approximately 450 linear feet, consistent with the development standards governing the requested COR-1 Zoning District, as shown above in Table 13.12.1. No development of the property is proposed as part of this application requesting a rezoning. The granting of a zoning change by the County does not exempt the applicant from any of the County’s Land Development Regulations. The applicant must demonstrate full compliance with all regulations prior to any Development Order approval action taken by the County. c. Whether the proposed district amendment is compatible with the character of the existing land uses in the adjacent and surrounding area and the peculiar suitability of the property for the proposed zoning use; and, As shown in the figures contained in Section E below, the subject property is a vacant, undeveloped parcel surrounded by a vacant parcel and preserved wetland to the westnorthwest, existing residential storage facilities to the northeast and east-southeast, and bounded by the major arterial US-1 (a.k.a. Federal Highway) to the south and southwest. 15 of 88 Page 7 of 18 Development Review Staff Report Across US-1 there exists limited commercial development and a vacant parcel. The subject parcel is separated from the nearest residential use, located approximately 250 feet northeast and designated high density land use with PUD-R zoning, by the existing residential storage facility which is zoned COR-1. An existing shared access is located at the southeastern corner of the property providing ingress/egress access to future development on the subject parcel via US-1. The primary land use pattern that has been established and recognized on the Future Land Use Map (FLUM) of the CGMP for the US-1 corridor in this area south of Cove Road l consists of a mix of commercial general, commercial limited, and commercial office/residential (COR) uses, with the COR areas concentrated adjacent to residential areas consistent with the Comprehensive Plan Policy 4.13A.8.(1). d. Whether and to what extent there are documented changed conditions in the area; and, This project is located directly on the major arterial roadway of US-1 and the infrastructure needed to support development and to provide services at established services levels to existing development in this local area is present. The pattern of development which has focused on commercial office/residential uses in the locality of the subject parcel is well established with minimal changed conditions in the immediate area of the subject property, as is evidenced by the same COR-1 zoning assigned to the parcel located adjacent to the subject property, and between the subject property and the nearest residential use. e. Whether and to what extent the proposed amendment would result in demands on public facilities; and, The subject property is located within the Primary Urban Services District of the County. As such, the full range of urban services at service levels established by the CGMP is available or must be made available for any uses that are planned for the property. Water and wastewater services to the site will be provided by Martin County Utilities, the regional service provider for this area of the County. f. Whether and to what extent the proposed amendment would result in a logical, timely and orderly development pattern which conserves the value of existing development and is an appropriate use of the county's resources; and, The land use pattern that has been established and recognized on the Future Land Use Map (FLUM) of the CGMP for development contains commercial office/residential uses surrounding the subject parcel as a transitional use between the existing residential areas and the major arterial corridor and more intense commercial uses. This development pattern is well established adjacent to, and within the vicinity of, the subject parcel and the extension of this pattern to the subject property is suitable, contemplated and supported by the CGMP. g. Consideration of the facts presented at the public hearings. The subject application requires a public hearing before the Local Planning Agency, who will make a recommendation on the request; and, before the Board of County Commissioners, who will take final action on the request. The two hearings will provide the public an opportunity to participate in the review and decision making process. 16 of 88 Page 8 of 18 Development Review Staff Report C.
