Okay, thank you. Thank you.
Good afternoon, Planning Commission. Amy Heiler with Long Range Planning. The item you're about to hear is Cross Park MPUD. You may have recalled this. I previously brought this to the Planning Commission or LPA a few months back for a requested comprehensive plan amendment to the existing plan development. So we'll go through the presentation. It's PDD 22-6.
The subject site is located in the South Market area in Commissioner District 4.
As you see here, the subject site is located off of State Road 54 at the southeast corner of 54 and Henley Road.
The zoning request is from an MPUD Master Plan Unit Development District to an MPUD Master Plan Unit Development District to allow for the development of 280 multifamily units, 45,000 square feet of medical professional office, and 10,000 square feet of retail on approximately 20.916 acres. The applicant is proposing the following variations to LDC section 8056,
which is restrictions on post-development wetlands and upland buffers within residential lots and non-residential parcels, and LDC section 902.2 M for stormwater management requirements, as well as LDC Section 901. And three access management. So I'll go through those. The following requests for variation on the first one, which is 805.6 and 902.2, is requesting a variation to allow for the open
space, drainage areas, common areas, landscape areas, wetland areas, buffer, preservation, conservation, recreation, and park areas. to be under one single ownership because it is a multifamily and not a single family complex, so they'll be having that under one single ownership within the HOA or CDD that they established. And the second one is Section 901.3 Access Management, which basically says that you
shall provide safe access to land development while preserving the flow of traffic in terms of safety, capacity, and speed. This is for the frontage roads within this development, and they're requesting to deviate the code by not. Requiring the access to the eastern boundary. The reason why we're accepting this or staff is recognizing that it meets the intent of the code is because on the eastern boundary it is bound by a swift mud drainage as well as a category
one wetland. And there's very specific policy in the comprehensive plan that says we cannot impact wetlands for those purposes. So with that, staff recommends that we find the analysis or staff and has determined that the variation meets the code for these purposes. So here is the master plan that they're provide that they had uh submitted. And as you see there's two access points. One is going to be off of Henley,
the other is going to be off of State Road 54 with a secondary emergency access off of Henley.
And I've zoomed in a little bit so we can go into detail on the master plan. This area is going to be the proposed medical office complex of 45,000 square feet located along State Road 54. We negotiated with the property owner and the applicant to ensure that this is located along State Road 54 and preserved for preserved friends. For viable non residential employment generating land uses to align with the policy directive from
the board?
And then the multifamily product that they're pro that they're proposing is 280 dwelling units. They are also proposing an additional 10,000 square feet in this area where 5,000 square feet is going to be vertically integrated within the multifamily. The other 5,000 square feet is going to be located along the frontage of State Road 54 and proposed to be a pet center or an amenity to. to the multifamily.
And the findings of fact, we can go through those. Um the findings of fact, as you see here, uh the subject sites located along State Road 54 on the northern edge of the development and Henley Road to the western edge of the development. Um as previously stated, there's currently a planned development that's accompanying this project. You will be hearing that at the next public hearing, or I guess you guys already heard it. So never mind, the board will be hearing that at the next public hearing. It is in the name of Cross Park PD,
which is a text amendment to the existing sub-area policy flu 7.1.17 Cross Park. The subject site, where am I at? Category One wetlands. So we have approximately 18 of the percent of the site is a category one wetland, which is identified in the master plan. And the crosspark MPUD will utilize this feature as an amenity and open space for trails and open spaces. There's adequate transit options with various bus stops located along State Road 54
to service this area. The conceptual plan also, or there is a conceptual or planned trail along State Road 54, which is identified on our Greenways and Blueways trails map. And the proposed request is consistent with the Pasco County LDC chapter. 400 section 402.2 zoning amendments and PUD master plan unit development and applicable provisions of the Pasco County Comprehensive Plan. So with that being said, PDD recommends
approval to the Board of County Commissioners or with the conditions, excuse me. And I'd be happy to answer any questions, and the applicant is here and online.
Okay. Do we have questions, Chris? Amy, I just have a couple questions. I was trying to remember, this came to us before, right? So what what has changed since
then? So what's happening here is the they're what they're actually doing is converting the assisted living facility. So this is that assisted living facility that they're converting to a multifamily component. Um at the previous public hearing, what was discussed? Was ensuring that
the negotiations between converting the assisted living to multifamily showed a greater impact on the area. It was consistent with the surrounding area. And then one of the conditions of the sub-area policy was actually binding the fact that we are going. to require the forty-five thousand square feet of employment generating land uses, whereas the original sub-area policy and MPUD did not do that. So
And then my other question concerning that trail. Can you tell me a little bit more about that or do you have more information? The one that you said is going from the Sun Coast Parkway to
So that the reason why that's there is that it's identified on the Greenways and Blue Ways trails map. So it's a conceptual trail along State Road 54. We are just ensuring that connections will occur to that trail, but we don't have any conditions yet because it's conceptual.
But we're not. But we're not sure what any more specifics on what that is.
So we're just ensuring that if it does occur on this side there's going to be a level of connection.
Thank you. Any other questions from up here?
All right. Any other any questions? Anything from the uh From the audience.

online and in the audience. Hi, Elise Batzel, Stern Sweaver Miller. I thought you were going right into the vote. Um but we're happy to we do have a separate presentation. Um a lot of it is duplicative of what Amy has already provided. Um so perhaps if you have questions we can answer those or we'd be happy to go through.
