The property owner opposes any change because she is Feb. 4,2004 PUBLIC HEARING AGENDA ITEM concerned that her taxes will go up. REZONING ANALYSIS: The following summarizes the data and issues which staff analyzed in reviewing this application: (1) Compliance with Procedural Requirements- The proposed Rezoning change is in compliance with all procedural requirements established by the city code and law; The property owner and adjacent land owners have been appropriately noticed as required, and any requirements for advertising the land use action have been met. (2) Consistent with The Comprehensive Plan- The proposed Rezoning change is consistent with the city's comprehensive plan and the proposed change will not have an adverse effect on the comprehensive plan. A land us~ designation for the parcel was not included on the City's Future Land Use Map, because the parcel was annexed into the City. (3) Consistent with any Master Plan for the property- The property is not part of a Master Plan. (4) Not Contrary to the Land Use Pattern Established by the Comprehensive Plan- The proposed Rezoning change from Seminole County "A-l Agricultural" to Winter Springs "R-Cl" is appropriate and compatible with the land use pattern established by the city's comprehensive plan; The 8.5 acre parcel is located immediately southofDunmar Estates, which is also zoned R-Cl. (5) Does Not Create Spot Zoning- The proposed Rezoning does not create a spot zone. Designation of this parcel as anything other than "R -C I" could be considered "spot zoning" which is prohibited bylaw. (6) Does Not Materially Alter the Population Density Pattern- The proposed Rezoning change does not materially alter the population density pattern in a manner that would overtax the load on public facilities and services (schools, utilities, streets, and other municipal services and infrastructure); (7) Does Not Create Illogically Drawn Zoning District Boundaries- The proposed Rezoning does not result in existing zoning district boundaries that are illogically drawn in relation to the existing conditions on the property and the surrounding area and the land use pattern established by the city's comprehensive plan. (8) Changed Conditions Make the Proposed Rezoning Necessarv- The Annexation of the property into the City of Winter Springs necessitates that the property be Rezoned with a City of Winter Springs' Zoning Designation. Winter Springs does not have an "Agricultural" Zoning. The "R-Cl" designation is the closest designation that the City has to the County's "A-I" Zoning and is also the zoning immediately to the north of the subject property. (9) No Serious Reduction in Light or Air to Adjacent Areas- The proposed rezoning change will not seriously reduce light or air to adjacent areas; (10) Adverse Impact on Surrounding Property Values- The proposed zoning designation has been determined by evaluating the prevailing character of the area around the subject property. The intent in the zoning of the property is to apply a zoning classification for the subject property that is consistent and compatible with the surrounding land uses. (11) Not Detrimental to Future Improvement of Adjacent Vacant Property- N/A; Most of the surrounding area is developed. The intent in the zoning of the property is to apply a zoning classification for the subject property that is consistent and compatible with the surrounding land Feb. 4,2004 PUBLIC HEARING AGENDA ITEM uses. (12) Does Not Constitutes a Special Privilege- The proposed Rezoning does not constitute a grant of special privilege to an individual owner as contrasted with the public welfare; (13) Not out of Scale- The proposed rezoning change is not out of scale or incompatible with the needs of the neighborhood or the city; (14) Does Not Violate any City Land Use Regulations- The proposed Rezoning does not violate any applicable land use regulations adopted by the city; FINDINGS: In analyzing the Rezoning request, it was detem1ined that the (new) fourteen (14) review standards included in Section 20-102 were satisfied. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Planning & Zoning Board hold a Public Hearing related to Ordinance 2004-08, which changes the Zoning classification on the subject property at Bird Road and Tusca Trail, from "A-I" (Seminole County) to "R-Cl" (City of Winter Springs).
