BCC Request for a Land Development Code Amendment to Section 1105.5 General Design Standards of the Self-Storage Facilities Design Standards Chapter

4:20:08R forty-six? R forty-six. This one should be a lot less. Well it should be still another

4:20:15thing to do besides this.

4:20:18What's our forty six?

4:20:20Okay.

4:20:28Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Sorry, Speedos Planning and Development Department. Okay. So on October 10, 2023, um an item was brought up during uh Commissioner's items from Commissioner Oriano. Um talking about amending section eleven oh five dot five dot girls of the land development code, which considers self-storage and warehousing and specifically the prohibition of covered and open storage. Storage within 300 feet of transit corridors. And in the memo uh before

4:20:58you for R 46, um proposed feasible language is set forth below. Um in the particular circumstance that the commissioner was referring to, there was a business uh mirrors plumbing over about shady hills in some. Where they had a tract of land that was essentially within the three hundred feet of the Sun Coast Parkway. And so um

4:21:29Language was uh worked where the land development code could be updated to be very specific that segment of the transit corridor that is north of State Route 52, so uh some sort of parkway north of 52, uh with and within the urban service area to allow for RV boat storage via special exception. Within three hundred feet of the transit corridor, the Sun Close Parkway, if that parcel or portion of the parcel is on C three or I one or

4:22:00I two. Um and so that's kind of the language that's um identified in the in the memo.

4:22:07So um may I start off again? Yes. Um don't take long. I know. Sorry, but I worked very hard. I'm sure that won't be an I worked very hard to get the Sun Coast Highway, me and a bunch of people in the state designated as a scenic corridor. Um part of the restrictions on that is that there has to be a landscape You know, it has to be scenic. Um there's no billboards allowed on it and there's um Part of that The way part of the way we got the designation was because of the trail. Um

4:22:38but Um everyone that I've worked with in my district that's come in there, we've you know, had 'em make sure they had a nice buffer. Now I I only had residential, but I worked with D.R. Horton to add more buffer. Um But I would be okay with this as long as there was a complete tree buffer from the highway. I don't wanna be driving down a scenic road and see a bunch of junk uh, you know, stuff stored in a parking lot with So they've gotta

4:23:08keep they don't have to keep three hundred feet, but you can get Cypress or

4:23:15you can have a tree buffer that's pretty thick. Don't they have one there if I looked at that site?

4:23:20They do.

4:23:24They're up above. So that's right.

4:23:28I don't there's not like a continual thing we've got to worry about. It's like a one piece that the guy's trying to do something with his property. It's right next to where his business is.

4:23:35Yeah, but can it keep the trees between a buffer of trees between there and the Sunkos?

4:23:41I think they're already.

4:23:43Yeah, I mean he's not gonna take those out, right? So I'm okay with that.

4:23:47Part of the uh part of the answer I think is that it's a special exception, which means here you can condition any approval, or the Planning Commission would condition any approval um that may be issued, as it's currently written, of course. Uh c we could potentially add uh performance standards to the code that would ensure that the senior corridor is protected.

4:24:11Yeah.

4:24:12We got it.

4:24:13Okay.

4:24:14Thank you. That was a good direction. Do we vote on this?

4:24:20So we have to vote on that? Did

4:24:21we vote on that? Oh, R. R. Okay. Direct planning and development to initiate a land development code amendment to section eleven oh five.

4:24:33So moved.

4:24:35Okay,

4:24:35that's good. All in favour say aye. Aye. Aye. Aye. Motion pass 4-0.
