The Lake Lotta Mall PUD is located north of S .R. 50 and south of White
Road east of Clarke Road. The PUD Land Use Plan was initially
submitted for City review on October 8 , 1993 . In order to conform the
Plan to all DRI and City Land Development Code requirements , the
developer submitted a number of sufficiency responses and attended
numerous meetings with the City Staff and its consultants to resolve
all issues raised . The Land Use Plan presented for consideration
reflects and is compatible with the proposed Development Order for the
Lake Lotta Mall DRI bearing print date January 20 , 1995 . The PUD is
also consistent with the proposed Comprehensive Plan Amendment Future

Land Use Map change proposed for this site in connection with
Ordinance No. 95-01 and Case No . CPA-1-9-93 . Approval of Ordinance
No . 95-02 and the Lake Lotta Mall PUD Land Use Plan constitutes a
rezoning of the property and would replace the existing Lake Lotta PUD
Land Use Plan which currently regulates the development of the
property. Except for the title on Sheet 1 of 1 of the PUD Land Use
Plan, the Preliminary Subdivision Plan/Site Plan is exactly the same
set of drawings as the PUD Land Use Plan. These Plans are being
submitted concurrently to expedite the review process .
ANALYSIS :
This is a combined staff report which addresses three separate agenda
items as set forth in the listing of issues to be considered .
Separate action is required on each item. A public hearing is not
required in connection with the proposed Development Agreement , but
the City Commission should receive public comment .
The Lake Lotta Mall PUD provides for the development of a retail mall
and peripheral retail uses constituting a total Gross Leasable Area
of 1 , 500 ,000 square feet . The project is planned to be developed in
two phases on a site encompassing 130 . 0 acres . Phase I incorporates
1 . 1 million square foot of mall space and 100 , 000 square feet of
outlot development . Phase II of the project will involve up to
150 , 000 square feet of mall expansion and another 150 , 000 square feet
of peripheral development . The mall itself incorporates space for up
to five anchor stores , a theater complex, food court , and future
parking garage in addition to space for approximately 140 retail
shops . Uses permitted within the project are consistent with the
proposed DRI Development Order . Specific development standards
pertaining to the entire project are also called out on the Plan, and
an extensive list of Conditions of Approval will also regulate the
future development of the site .
Major features of the proposed Land Use Plan and Preliminary
Subdivision Plan/Site Plan are summarized below :
• An extensive number of roadway improvements are proposed to
accommodate mall traffic including three new signalized
intersections and upgrades to two existing intersections .
• Additional rights-of-way are to be dedicated for future
improvements to S .R. 50 and Clarke Road.

• The developer will provide a $250 , 000 cash contribution to
assist the City in reducing the existing curvature of White Road
just west of Clarke Road .
• An extensive traffic monitoring and modeling program will be
required prior to development of Phase II of the project to
identify roadway and intersection improvements necessary to
mitigate impacts generated.
• The proposed stormwater retention ponds are positioned along the
site perimeter to form a buffer between the mall and the
Rosehill neighborhood as well as the proposed single family
neighborhood north of the project .
• The multi-family portion of the Lake Lotta Center DRI is
accessible through the Lake Lotta Mall project , and there will
be no access to Good Homes Road.
• All building setbacks along roadways and adjoining residential
areas are consistent with City Land Development Code standards ,
and special setback provisions contained within the original
Lake Lotta PUD are maintained to protect the Rosehill
subdivision.
• Extensive landscape buffers are provided along Clarke Road and
S .R. 50 , and screening walls are specified to be constructed
ahead of development where the site abuts existing/proposed
single family subdivisions .
• Tree preservation areas have been set aside near the two project
entrances on Clarke Road, and significant landscaped buffers and
planting areas have been planned along roadways , within the
parking lots and adjoining the mall building perimeter .
• Lighting within retail areas will be limited to 40 ' in height ,
and all lighting emanating from the site will be shielded from
adjoining single family developments .
• An initial bus transit center is proposed adjoining the ring
road, and a space is reserved within an outlot for a possible
"superstop" location.
• An unfinished police substation area as well as a public
community meeting room will be provided within the mall at no
cost to the Cite .

A number of waivers have been requested by the developer as part of
the PUD Land Use Plan and Preliminary Subdivision Plan/Site Plan
approval . These include 1) a request to slightly reduce the size of
parking spaces; 2) a request to provide zero setbacks for buildings
on individual lots within the mall ; 3) a request to increase the
allowable distance from the entrance to parking; 4) a request to
slightly reduce travel lane width on internal driveways ; 5) a request
to slightly reduce the required number of parking spaces ; 6) a request
to waive tree survey requirements outside protection areas; 7) a
request to waive the 4 to 1 tree replacement requirement ; 8) a request
to waive detailed specifications for landscaping in parking lots ; 9)
a request to provide hedges for screening instead of berms ; 10) a
request to increase the permitted height of screening walls; 11) a
request to provide alternative landscaping along screening walls ; 12)
a request to reduce the requirements for large shade trees in parking
lots; 13) a request to compute open space including retention ponds ;
and 14) a request to reduce maintenance berm widths around retention
ponds .
The proposed PUD Land Use Plan and Preliminary Subdivision Plan/Site
Plan are consistent with the Ocoee Comprehensive Plan, as amended by
Ordinance No. 95-01, and the proposed Development Order for the Lake
Lotta Mall DRI . Also, any approval of the proposed PUD Land Use Plan
and Preliminary Subdivision Plan/Site Plan will become effective only
if the proposed Development Order for the Lake Lotta Mall DRI becomes
effective.
The Ocoee Land Development Code requires that a development agreement
be executed in connection with the granting of PUD zoning . The
development agreement must incorporate all plans and conditions of
approval . This provides a mechanism to place in the public records
the conditions of approval required by the City . The various local
agreements between the City and the developer have been incorporated
into the conditions of approval which are set forth in the PUD Land
Use Plan, the proposed Development Agreement , and the Preliminary
Subdivision Plan/Site Plan. Attached hereto is a proposed Development
Agreement which complies with the requirements of the Land Development
Code. Lake Lotta, Ltd. is also executing the proposed Development
Agreement as owner of the property at the time of approval .
