Good afternoon, Liam Devine, Planning and Economic Growth Department. This is um PC thirteen. P-E-G-24-7806 in the name of Lakeshore Boulevard, L L C It is a Euclidean zoning amendment from PO2, Professional Office, and MF2, Multifamily High Density District, and it's rezoning to C1, neighborhood commercial district. The future land use on the subject site is ROR under the comprehensive plan. The applicant is requesting a rezoning
to C1. For the purpose to submit a special exception to develop the property with a freestanding boat and RV storage facility in conformance with C1 neighborhood commercial district standards and the special exceptions conditions of approval, of course. The subject site is located on the west side of Lakeshore Boulevard, approximately 233 feet southwest of 5A Road.
The subject site is located in the Westmarket area in the urban service area.
Here is a context map for us. The nearest trail is located along Five Bay Road, which is to the um northeast.
Mm-hmm.
The surrounding future land use to the north, east, south and west is all is all ROR. And the surrounding zoning to the north is MF2 and C1, to the east is PUD, to the south is MF2, and to the west is R2.
The subject site consists of a one-story concrete block building, which was formerly used as a notary and fingerprinting service office. Um access to the property is from Lakeshore Boulevard.
And as stated before, the nearest trail is 5A Road. Which is about two hundred and sixty feet northeast. And this is coming with a recommendation of approval.
I'm here if you have any questions.
Are any questions? John?
I don't have any questions for staff. I'll let the applicant make their presentation.
All right.
No? Okay. All right. So if the applicant would like to make a presentation. On the application.
Applicant present.
Ah yes online.
Go ahead.
Okay. Hello, um my name is Ava Russo. The address is 1009-Gallant Lane and that's Tampa, Florida, code 33625. I am an E I working under the responsible. E. Michael Hoffman and I'll be representing the applicant and vote and advanced engineering consultants. The proposed project involves rezoning three parcels, which are a total of 3.62 acres from PO2 and MF2 to C1. The purpose of the rezoning is to accommodate the addition of a freestanding recreational vehicle
and boat storage facility while also keeping the existing medical office that's currently on the site. Or L D C section five. Two five dot four, self-storage facilities and free standing recreational vehicle and boat storage is permitted within the C One zoning as a special exemption use. A special exemption has been applied for concurrently with this rezoning and we'll be attending the public hearing for that on August 8th, as you've heard. Uh the adjacent parcel to the northeast is currently zoned as C1, demonstrating the
commercial compatibility within the area. We believe this transition aligns with the evolving needs in the community and brings a mix of commercial and professional services while maintaining the surrounding land use patterns. Um there are approximately one point two two acres of category two wetlands on the site. A twenty five foot wetland setback has been included. To mitigate potential impacts, retention will also be provided on site to accommodate for the additional impervious. There is a separate entrance for the RV and boat storage
facility, which will have a gate and also a firetruck turnaround for emergency access. and the required seventy five foot separation from the gate to the right-of-way has been considered as well. The property is going to follow all C1 standards, as well as provide a type D landscape buffer to the north, south, and west, and a type D buffer to the east. We are aware that the special exemption application is contingent on approval of this rezoning. Staff has found this approvable and we kindly request your approval as well. Thank you for your time.
I'll take any questions.
Okay.
Questions? So the reason I pulled this Is I don't feel like it's appropriate to hear the zoning without the special exception request. Definitely. That is the reason that they're asking for this rezoning. In other words. What if we don't approve the special exception request? Maybe we didn't want to approve this change to C one from PO. I'm particularly
concerned to see the site plan for the special exception because I see that access to that site can be somewhat hindered to from the location of the median opening on Lakeshore. Also Lake Shore is in deplorable condition to s the condition of the road is deplorable to say the least. So I don't want to deny this request today, but my personal preference would be to continue this. To
when we hear the special exception so that we can hear the two cases together and then vet the special exception and determine whether or not we want to change the zoning.
Okay.
Liam, you want to adjust that?
If I can, that'd be great. Thank you. Um, so there was a noticing error with the special exception. The rezoning was um noticed properly. The special exception had an error. There was a typo. Um our request for the special exception um application was to the eighth. That would have been brought before you before the rezoning goes in front of the Board of County Commissioners. So essentially you could still hear the special exception before the board hears the rezoning. And that
was intentional. In case for whatever reason there's added conditions or the special exception does not get approved, the applicant could withdraw their rezoning application for consideration. I understand.
But I don't think that gives the Planning Commission the opportunity to vet the case and make a recommendation with all the facts before it. Agreed. Understood.
Okay. Thanks, Lamb. Um
All right, is there anybody else in on the floor out there that has a comment, a question?
Anybody here further?
If not. John? I'd move that we continue this case until the August eighth. Meeting in Dade City.
I'll second that.
We have a motion and a second. Is there further discussion on that motion?
Does that Noticing it all? Are we good there? Does that affect noticing at all?
It does not affect noticing.
All right, so we have a motion and a second. Any there's no further discussion? If not, all in favor, signify by saying aye.
Aye.
Opposed, like sign.
Okay.
Have we continued to win? Hostile updates.
Alright.
