HomeMy WebLinkAbout2008 10 27 Regular 602 Ladybird Academy Preliminary Engineering/Site PlanCITY COMMISSION AGENDA ITEM 602 Consent Information Public Hearin Regular X October 27, 2008 Meeting MGR. /Dept. 09 REQUEST: The Community Development Department requests the City Commission consider the Ladybird Academy preliminary engineering/site plan, located on the north side of SR 434, immediately east of the South Seminole Christian Church and south of the Barrington Estates subdivision. PURPOSE: To review and approve the preliminary engineering/site plan the 8,500 square foot (S.F.) single story daycare or pre-school, on a 1.756 acre site abutting the South Seminole Christian Church to the west, the 10 foot wide Seminole Trail easement and Barrington Estates subdivision to the north, and the undeveloped 20 foot wide Beacon Street right-of-way (ROW) to the east. The site is subject to the SR 434 New Development Overlay Zoning District regulations (sections 20-463 through 20-474) and an existing development agreement limiting building height. The overlay zoning district design standards will govern development within the corridor and will control where conflicts between code provisions occur (Section 20-462). APPLICABLE LAW: Chapter 163, F.S. Chapter 166, F.S. Comprehensive Plan Chapter 5 (Code), Tree Protection and Preservation. Chapter 9 (Code). Land Development. Chapter 20 (Code). Zoning. Development Agreement/Notice of Zoning Restriction CONSIDERATIONS: OVERVIEW: The 1.756 acre former home-site with numerous trees, including specimen trees, is located on the north side of SR 434, immediately east of the South Seminole Christian Church. It has a Commercial Future Land Use designation, C-1 zoning, and lies within the SR 434 New Development Overlay Zoning District. To the north is a 10 foot wide Seminole Trail easement and Barrington Estates, while to the east is the unimproved 20 foot wide Beacon Street ROW. October 27, 2008 Regular Item 602 Page 2 of 4 The site was annexed into the City with the adoption of Ordinance No. 2007-01, on February 26, 2007. A development agreement/Notice of Zoning Restriction was executed on April 9, 2007, limiting the maximum building height at this location to 35 feet, in contrast to the provisions of Section 20-464 of the City Code (which would otherwise allow a maximum building height of 55 feet). ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES: The site is located outside of the 100 year floodplain, does not include wetlands (and appears outside of any required upland buffer from a nearby wetland - to the east), and there is no evidence that it is habitat for any listed animal species. It appears that 12 specimen trees will be removed and 4 remain. Other large trees are to remain - primarily along the eastern site boundary. One large tree (which appears to be a specimen) along the rear of the site will be preserved. ACCESS & TRAFFIC: The site plan depicts direct access to and from SR 434. Based on the ITE Trip Generation Manual (7th Edition), the 8,500 SF daycare center will generate an estimated 674 trips per weekday (79.26 trips per 1,000 SF x 8.5 thousand SF= 673.71 or 674 average daily trips). A trip or trip end is a single or one-direction vehicle movement with either the origin or the destination (exiting or entering) inside a study site. For trip generation purposes, the total trip ends for a land use over a given period of time are the total of all trips entering plus all trips exiting a site during a designated time period. Of the 674 average daily trips, 115 will occur in the A.M. peak hour (13.56 x 8.5 = 115.26) and 118 will occur during the P.M. peak hour (13.91 x 8.5 = 118.235). Some trips are captured from the existing background traffic volume on the adjacent roadways, while other trips are newly generated in response to the development. The project requires a traffic study (Transportation Element policies 1. 1.3 & 1. 11.2) to determine if the accessed roadways and intersections have adequate capacity to handle the additional traffic from the day care at an acceptable level of service. The traffic study must also address the needs for auxiliary left and/or right turn lanes into the site from S.R. 434 (Transportation Policy 1.11.3). The traffic study is required to be submitted for Staff review not later than the first Final Engineering submittal (Code Subsection 9-147 (c)). The adjacent 20 foot wide Beacon Street ROW is an unimproved City ROW. The City has no plans to develop it as a roadway, although the Public Works director has noted its potential future role for utility extension/connection. PARKING: The City Code does not specify how many parking spaces a daycare or pre-school facility must provide, so it is the applicant who must demonstrate that the proposed number of parking spaces and the vehicular circulation (particularly the vehicle stacking area) will work for a facility. This is typically done by demonstrating that a similar sized facility in a nearby community functions safely and efficiently under similar conditions. The applicant proposes 32 permanent parking spaces (2 handicap accessible and 4 temporary, until cross access is accomplished with the adjacent parcels, pursuant to Section 20-472 and the Comprehensive Plan). The cross-access easements need to be paved all the way to the site boundaries, for future connection when the adjacent properties to the east and west develop or redevelop (respectively). There is a porte cochere in front of the building with two 12 foot wide one- way aisles, one aisle for drop-off and pickup and the other aisle as a by-pass around the drop-off aisle. The rest of the vehicle accommodation area has 24 foot wide 2-way drive aisles. The applicant has indicated that the number of proposed parking spaces is consistent with existing Ladybird facilities 2 October 27, 2008 Regular Item 602 Page 3 of 4 which do not experience parking problems. This will be examined in more detail as a part of the final engineering process. UTILITIES: The applicant must extend the existing 12 inch potable water main and 6 inch sanitary sewer force main along the SR 434 ROW from in front of Barrington Estates to the eastern boundary of the development site. Potable water to the adjacent South Seminole Christian Church, which is not located within the City, is provided by the City of Oviedo. The applicant has been asked to oversize (and be compensated for the cost difference) the lines to allow future service to the adjacent parcel to the east. Dumpsters, transformers, backflow preventers, HVAC equipment, and other utility items, as well as storage facilities must be adequately screened from public ROWs, pursuant to Section 20-473. All on- site utilities must be installed underground, pursuant to Section 20-471. The dumpster pad enclosure is proposed near the east side of the building. Dumpster pad enclosures must be constructed consistent with the requirements of sections 9-280 and 9-281. STORMWATER: Stormwater is proposed to be collected onsite and routed to a proposed dry retention pond at the north end (rear) of the site. The retention pond has a proposed outfall to a spreader swale onsite that will discharge stormwater at its historical location and direction. The stormwater rate of discharge in the post-development condition must not exceed the pre-development rate of discharge for the 25-year, 24-hour storm event as required by the City Code. Additional detail will be required with the final engineering documents to demonstrate that the spreader swale design returns flow to its historical location without adversely impacting the downstream properties. In addition, because the site is in the Lake Jesup Basin, the post-development phosphorous loading cannot exceed the pre- development phosphorous loading for the design storm, per SJRWMD criteria. BUFFERING: The buffering requirements of the SR 434 New Development Overlay Zoning District apply to the site. Much of this involves landscaping, which is required with the final engineering (not preliminary). A 6 foot tall masonry wall is required by Section 20-469 along the rear of the site. The Barrington Estates subdivision already has an 8 foot tall PVC fence along the rear (south side) of the residential lots backing up to the 10 foot wide Seminole Trail easement that separates the lots from the Academy site. Staff believes that a wall enclosing this easement not only fails to serve the public interest but, in fact, negates it. Therefore, staff recommends against provision of an additional wall along the rear of the site. FINDINGS: 1. The Ladybird Academy site is located on the north side of SR 434, within the SR 434 New Development Overlay Zoning District. 2. The Ladybird Academy site is located within the Commercial future land use designation. 3. The Ladybird Academy preliminary engineering/site plan is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. 4. The Ladybird Academy site plan is consistent with the existing development agreement that limits building height to 35 feet. 3 October 27, 2008 Regular Item 602 Page 4 of 4 5. The Ladybird Academy site plan is consistent with the City Code, except as follows: a. the 6 foot tall masonry wall required by Section 20-469 of the Code, between the site and the adjacent residential property, is not provided since there is an existing 8 foot tall PVC fence along the rear of the residential lots - the 10 foot wide Seminole Trail easement separates the commercial and residential properties (staff believes it would be counter-productive to construct a wall between the Academy site and the trail easement). Staff recommends the development agreement be amended to not require the wall along the rear of the property (this amendment should occur concurrently with the final engineering or aesthetic review). 6. Transportation Element policies 1.1.3 and 1. 11.2 require a traffic study, acceptable to staff, be provided no later than the final engineering/site plan submittal. 7. The site appears to contain specimen trees, some of which are proposed for removal. Other trees that appear to be specimen trees, as well as a number of other large trees, are proposed to be incorporated into the site plan. PLANNING & ZONING BOARD ACTION: At a special meeting on October 7, 2008, the Planning and Zoning Board unanimously recommended that the Commission approve the Ladybird Academy preliminary engineering/site plan, subject to the above mentioned conditions. RECOMMENDATION: The Planning and Zoning Board and staff recommend that the Ladybird Academy preliminary engineering/site plan be approved, subject to provision of a traffic study acceptable to staff (as part of the final engineering plan submittal) and amending the DA to not require the wall along the rear of the site (concurrent with final engineering or aesthetic review).
