Re
Zoning Atlas Amendment - Aria Apartments - 3000 Okeechobee Road
Submitted For:
Jennifer Hofmeister

SUBJECT:

Quasi-Judicial Hearing - Ordinance 20-024 REZONING THE PROPERTY GENERALLY LOCATED AT OR NEAR 3000 OKEECHOBEE ROAD, FROM C-3, GENERAL COMMERCIAL ZONE, TO R-4, MEDIUM DENSITY RESIDENTIAL ZONE; PROVIDING FOR A SEVERABILITY CLAUSE; PROVIDING FOR REPEAL OF ORDINANCES OR PARTS THEREOF IN CONFLICT; AND PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE DATE.  FIRST READING

SUMMARY:

  • The subject Future Land Use Map Amendment from General Commercial (GC) to Medium Density Residential (RM) will provide for a land use that is consistent with the applicant’s proposed vision of an Innovative Residential Multi-Family Development and the City’s desired development pattern for the subject site and surrounding area.
  • The RM Future Land Use Category, as defined in the Future Land Use Element of the City’s Comprehensive Plan, calls for parcels that are best suited for multi-family residential uses.
  • As the City’s Zoning Map and Land Development Regulations must be consistent with the Future Land Use and accompanying land use category specifications contained in the Future Land Use Element, the subject application also includes a rezoning for the same subject parcel from General Commercial (C-3) to Medium Density Residential (R-4).

RECOMMENDATION:

The requested Application for Zoning Atlas Map Amendment meets the criteria specified in Section 125-136 of the City Code, the Comprehensive Plan, and does not adversely affect the public health, safety, convenience and general welfare. Therefore, Staff recommends APPROVAL of the request to change the Zoning Designation from General Commercial (C-3) to Medium Density Residential (R-4).
