CONSIDERA TIONS:
The wooded 1.3 acre site is located at the west end of Panama Circle, between the Foxmoor Unit
3 subdivision and the City of Casselberry. It has a Low Density Residential (LDR) Future Land
Use (FLU) designation and is within the R-I zoning district. Pursuant to Section 9-10 of the City
Code, as amended by Ordinance No. 2006-11, all lots are larger than other R-l10ts within 1,000
feet of the site (of the 194 lots within 1,000 feet, the arithmetic mean is 8,730 SF; the proposed
lots are 8,732, 8739, 10,118, and 14,714 SF). All lots exceed the 60' width at the building line
requirement for the zoning district.
Central water (a 4" diameter line) will be extended in a circle around the cul-de-sac connecting to
an existing 6" diameter line in the Panama Circle right-of-way. Sewer will be connected to the
existing 8" diameter sewer main that ends in a manhole on the site (in what is proposed to be the
cul-de-sac).
The treed site contains no wetlands or floodplain area, but does contain a number of gopher
tortoises, an animal species listed by the state as a species of special concern. Based on a site
review performed by the developer's environmental consultant, Breedlove, Dennis, &
Associates, Inc., the site has an estimated population of 34 gopher tortoises. It is staff s
recommendation that all gopher tortoises on-site be relocated pursuant to all applicable state
regulations. The Florida Wildlife Conservation Commission (formerly Florida Game and Fresh
Water Fish Commission) will issue the final disposition on this issue.
Although the site is treed and contains one 24" diameter oak tree, the uneven topography and the
need to re-grade the entire site renders the idea of on-site tree protection unattainable.
Two (2) storm-water swales will be dedicated to the homeowners' association for ownership and
maintenance. They will be accessed from the cul-de-sac through easements along the sides of the
proposed residential lots.
No traffic study was required for the subdivision. Four single family lots can be expected to
generate 38 (4 x 9.57) average trips per day. A trip is a single or one-directional vehicle
movement with either the origin or the destination (exiting or entering) inside the subject area.

No street light plan is available due to delays with the power company. Staff would recommend,
due to the small size of the site (1.3 acre) and the known delays in getting a lighting plan, that
engineering site acceptance be conditioned on a the receipt of an acceptable lighting plan and that
placement of streetlights be according to that plan. The final subdivision plat should not be
recorded before a lighting plan is approved by the City and a street light installed by the power
company.
FIND IN GS:
1. The subdivision will connect to City potable water and sanitary sewer. The City has adequate
capacity in both.
2. The site includes existing trees (including one specimen tree) and gopher tortoises.
3. The 1.3 acre site is within the R-I zoning district, has a Rural Residential Future Land Use.
4. The proposed subdivision is consistent with the City Code, subject to providing the street light
plan and light.
RECOMMENDA TION:
Staff recommends the P&Z Board recommend approval of the final subdivision/engineering plan
for the Crockett Comer Subdivision, subject to: (a) relocation of all onsite gopher tortoises
(unless prohibited by the state); and (b) provision of a street light plan and a street light before
engineering site acceptance or platting.
