Thank you, Mr. Chairman Mariano Spitos, Planning and Economic Growth. Uh item P eleven is a land development code amendment to section eleven oh five self-storage facility standards. Um

This section this land development code amendment was mandated by the Board of County Commissioners at the January 9, 2024. uh Board of County Commissioners meeting where they directed staff to initiate changes to Section 1105 5 general design guidelines for self-storage facility standards to remove the complete prohibition of open RV boat storage in the transit corridor north of State Road 52. for that portion that's in the urban service area specifically. Um

this amendment has gone through the typical review process through the ordinance development team. And was presented at the Horizon Round Table on April seventeenth, twenty twenty four. Um this amendment was predicated on a December 7, 2021 BCC adoption of ordinance number 2176, which made freestanding recreational vehicle and boat storage facilities a special exception use in C3, I1, and I2 zoning districts. And although freestanding recreational

vehicle built storage facilities are not an employment generating use. To be put into C three, I ones, and I twos. Uh each application for special use uh for a special exception use requires an individual review of its location design, configuration, operation, and the public need for particular uses at the particular location that they're proposed. In addition, uh the special exception is individually cond uh individually conditioned, and you can impose additional requirements. to

ensure um that such a use can fit within these zoning districts. One of the major one of the main special exception conditions. um is that we uh we can impose sunset provisions in order to ensure potential use of the C three, I one or I two properties in the future. So it's it's a form of it's like a land banking strategy of sorts that was um incorporated into the land development code in December seventh. It gives C three, I one, and I

two uh property owners an ability to use their land until such time that there is some uh interest in it. Uh on the overhead I have the extent of what's uh proposed. Um we have amendments to correct various scriveners errors, which I'll I'll show you a flavor for that. An amendment to define the corridor setback and address housekeeping matters. So There was one additional amendment we that we've tacked on to this board mandate just to clarify how we measure the corridor setback.

For self storage facilities. And then there's the actual main amendment, which we'll talk about in just a minute. So this is the uh self-storage facility design standards. These are all the corridors that uh a lot of these guidelines in Section 1105 apply to, specifically the area that we're talking about um in this amendment here. Let's see if I can go the other way.

Unidentified speakerVoice B

What about

Unidentified speakerVoice A

it? Oh, there it is. Who's driving that you?

Unidentified speakerVoice C

You.

Unidentified speakerVoice A

Oh, okay. So this is what the area we're talking about here. North of State Road 52, essentially up until this point where Shady Hills crosses. The same goes back way. So it's a very narrowly defined code amendment to enable the various I1 and C3 properties that are along the Sun Coast additional opportunity for RV boat storage.

Next slide. Uh this slide is illustrating just the flavor of some of the scriveners error errors that are being adjusted throughout section 1105. It's basically spelling out the word section. of thing.

For the corridor measurement. So when we're talking about being set back from a corridor, we're talking about measuring from the right-of-way line into the private property areas. So that's there for clarification. That was always the intent and how things were implemented previously. It's just being clarified in the ordinance. And then this is the actual proposed ordinance.

Jon Moody

For clarification. So you measure it from the right away.

Is that the mean from the existing right-of-way or any proposed right-way? Sometimes they have to give Right away. because of the corridor preservation.

Unidentified speakerVoice A

Uh It's going to be from the proposed right-of-way. If there is that sort of dual right-of-way scenario where we know where the proposed right-of-way line is, it's going to be from that point because the intent is to preserve the right-of-way frontages for employment generating uses. So

Jaimie GirardiVice Chair

Well, yeah. Terry, if that's the case you may want to say the

From the edge of the transportation corridor or something instead of right of way because I Yeah. Mr. Moody's point, that could be construed as either existing right away or Future so You might want to just come out and say, Brad, you were gonna say something?

Unidentified speakerVoice B

Yeah, I have a recommendation. Can we use the the term the ultimate right-of-way uh based on the trip generation or based on the land of uh Comprehensive plant, tables.

Jaimie GirardiVice Chair

That's a bag, yeah. I hope I'm okay with that too, but if you just use the existing term you're gonna have the ambiguity that Mr. Moody referenced. Yeah, we can change that, add the word ultimate.

Jon Moody

Is the is that the word that's actually used in the comp plan, Brad Ultimate?

Unidentified speakerVoice B

Well yes, and and it's uh uh just because depending on the the rough proportionality, some of it may be preserved, some of it may be dedicated with a particular project that comes in, so the the right-of-way kind of ends up in different places over time, but we want to measure this from where that ultimate will be so that in the future that frontage is preserved. So

Jaimie GirardiVice Chair

Why don't we just say that we'll use the term that's in the com plan?

Yeah, we get we get the point, but I think they just need to research what the exact term was. Okay.

Unidentified speakerVoice A

Um so the the m the amendment to section eleven oh five that the board mandated in January uh is what's on the screen is number three there. It's adding It's first clarifying within two hundred and fifty feet of the corridor to make it consistent with the image that I showed previously. There was a typo in the text. But uh also to add the following sentences. So it describes the area that I just showed on the map. Along the Sun Coast Parkway for the segment of that transit corridor that

is north of State Route 52 and within the urban surface area, open RV boat storage may be allowed as a special exception within the 250-foot corridor setback. If the parcel or that portion of the parcel is zoned C three. The name was C three, I one, the name I two. All required landscaping and screening may be more stringent than required by the Land Development Code by virtue of special exception conditions. The special exception use may be time limited, the sunset that I mentioned earlier. And

so that's the that's the language that was presented to the Board of County Commissioners, to which they agreed that we should m make it move through the uh Process.

Jon Moody

Seems probably like that might be a great way to handle car washes too.

Unidentified speakerVoice A

We request that the LPA find the proposed ordinance amendment consistent with the comprehensive plan and recommend approval to the Board of County Commissioners. So moved. May I

Unidentified speakerVoice C

have

Unidentified speakerVoice A

a second?

Unidentified speakerVoice C

I'll second.

Jaimie GirardiVice Chair

Any further discussion? Does that there's a big difference between RV and boat storage and car washers? You do know that, right?

R V and Bow storage is very easy to remove as an interim use compared to a car wash. Well,

Jon Moody

make it a conditional use. And maybe you could have some provisions to demolish them if they become abandoned for a certain amount of time. But we'll discuss that at another hearing and

Jaimie GirardiVice Chair

continue.

There's a good rationale for how they're handling R V and Boat Storage because it's an easy use to reverse and to reverse if you in the future.

Jon Moody

Well certain metal buildings that are just bolted to the ground aren't hard to reboot.

Clerk

We already continued that item. Yeah. Public comment. Public comment.

Charles GreyChair

And do we have a public comment? Do we have a public? Barbara may want to say something. You have a date certain, Barbara.

Clark, nothing?

Stacey Burgess

No, good.

Charles GreyChair

No? Okay.

All right.

Motion. All in favor? Aye. Aye. Opposed? All right. Thank you. We should've started with that one.

David, Mr. Chair, we need to get you up there more often. You're quick. See Ha ha.
