Danny Howell, District 1 0 Scott Anderson, District 2 City Manager Rusty Johnson, District 3 Jim Gleason <- ' ` Nancy J. Parker, District 4 STAFF REPORT DATE: December 8, 2003 TO: Honorable Mayor and City Commissioners FROM: Thomas Grimms, AICP, Senior Planne THROUGH: Russ Wagner, Community Development Director SUBJECT: Ocoee Business Park—Project# LS-2001-007 Final Subdivision Plan—Phase I ISSUE: Should the Mayor and City Commission approve the Final Subdivision Plan — Phase I and the Amendment to the Development Agreement for Ocoee Business Park (a.k.a. CPB Family Partnership), Project# LS-2001-007. BACKGROUND: Ocoee Business Park is an industrial/commercial subdivision containing 102.97 acres situated along the south side of Franklin Street and encompassing lands just west of the Western Beltway(S.R. 429) to land just east of Bowness Road. The overall development consists of ten (10) industrial parcels of various sizes and two (2) commercial parcels along the south side of Franklin Street, as well as wetland areas to be preserved on the east side of Bowness Road and on the west side of the Western Beltway. The Preliminary Subdivision Plan for Ocoee Business Park was approved on October 1, 2002. DISCUSSION: The Final Subdivision Plan — Phase I involves the southeast portion of the subdivision comprising 9.802 acres, specifically Lot 1-1 and Lot 1-2. The improvements in Phase I are: location of a retention pond at the southeast corner, construction of a lift-station at the southwest corner or the intersection of the railroad tracks and Bowness Road, and construction of approximately 2/3 of the south portion of Ocoee Business Parkway westward into the subdivision. The retention pond will intrude into a portion of the wetland area at the southeast corner. To accommodate the impact of the projected increased traffic generated on Bowness Road, a southbound right turn lane with a storage length of 240 feet, and a northbound left turn lane with a storage length of 240 feet will all be constructed with the development of Phase I. The developer proposes to provide mitigation for the lost wetland function at the southeast corner of Lot 1-1 by the expansion of the littoral zone of the retention pond according to St. John River Water Management District regulations and by mitigating to Parcel 2. + The Honorable Mayor and City Commission December 8,2003 Page 2 of 2 There is a proposed Amendment to the Development Agreement relating to construction of the lift station which would be built during improvements to Phase I. The lift station will serve the needs of the entire industrial subdivision with potential to serve the adjacent areas as well. Condition of Approval # 31 states: "Prior to approval of the Final Subdivision Plan, the City and Developer shall enter into an amendment to that certain Development Agreement recorded in the official records Book 4228, Page 4325, public records of Orange County, Florida for the construction of a lift station on City property adjacent to Tract 2-A. Upon completion of construction of the lift station, the lift station improvements shall be conveyed to the City by bill of sale in a form acceptable to the City." DEVELOPMENT REVIEW COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION: The Development Review Committee (DRC) met on December 3, 2003 and reviewed the Final Subdivision Plan — Phase I for Ocoee Business Park. There was discussion concerning the wetlands at the southeast corner of Phase I and how mitigation would be handled. There was also discussion concerning the lift station and the Assistant City Attorney briefly went over the Amendment to the Development Agreement involving the lift station and he also discussed the Conservation Easement Agreement. The DRC voted unanimously to recommend approval of the Final Subdivision Plan — Phase I for Ocoee Business Park subject to the execution of the Amendment to the Development Agreement and execution of the Conservation Easement Agreement. PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: NOTE: In view of the meeting of the Planning and Zoning Commission meeting on December 9 and the deadline for getting the City Commission agenda packets out that afternoon, Staff will verbally recite the proceedings and recommendation of the Planning and Zoning Commission at the City Commission meeting of December 16th .
