Subject: Ocoee Town Shops
Comprehensive Plan Amendment # CPA - 2008 -003
Commission District # 2 - Rosemary Wilsen
Background Summary:
On December 1, 2009, the City of Ocoee City Commission reviewed and approved a Small -Scale
Comprehensive Plan Amendment for Ocoee Town Shoppes (the "Previous Amendment "). For your
reference, a copy of the staff report for the Previous Amendment is attached hereto. At the time of
approval of the Previous Amendment, the City was prohibited from adopting comprehensive plan
amendments because it had not yet submitted its required Evaluation and Appraisal Report
( "EAR ") to the Florida Department of Community Affairs ( "DCA "). Accordingly, the Previous
Amendment provided for a deferred adoption date related to the City's adoption of its EAR, its
submission of the EAR to DCA and its receipt of an initial determination of sufficiency from DCA.
On September 21, 2010, the City of Ocoee City Commission adopted and authorized transmission
of its EAR to DCA. Based on the Previous Amendment ordinance, the adoption date could be after
the November 2 election. If Amendment No. 4 passes, the effect on the comprehensive plan
amendment is uncertain. Since comprehensive plan amendments may be adopted at such time as
the EAR has been transmitted to DCA, City Staff recommends that the City Commission pass an
ordinance amending the Previous Amendment in order to provide for an adoption date 10 days
after passage of this ordinance. This will allow the Comprehensive Plan Amendment to be sent to
the DCA prior to the November 2 election.
Additionally, the Previous Amendment had a companion rezoning ordinance. This was adopted
with a blank into which the ordinance number for the comprehensive plan amendment was to be
inserted. Direction to staff is needed to reference the prior ordinance as amended by the attached
ordinance.
Issue:
Should the Honorable Mayor and City Commissioners amend the previously approved Small -Scale
Comprehensive Plan Amendment Ordinance for the Ocoee Town Shops to provide for an adoption date of
10 days after the adoption of this ordinance?

Comprehensive Plan Amendment # CPA - 2008 -003
Rezoning / PUD Land Use Plan - Project # RZ- 08 -08 -05
Preliminary Subdivision /Site Plan - Project # LS- 2008 -006
Commission District # 2 — Rosemary Wilsen
BACKGROUND SUMMARY:
The subject site is approximately 3.39 acres in size and is located on the northwest corner of Clarke Road
and W. Colonial Drive (SR 50). The property is currently zoned Professional Offices & Services (P -S) with
a Future Land Use designation of "Professional Offices & Services" which allows for a Floor Area Ratio of
3.0. The subject property is currently vacant, undeveloped and heavily wooded containing a mixture of
Oak, Laurel, Ear, Chinaberry and Palm trees.
The future land use and zoning classifications of the surrounding properties:
DIRECTION: JURISDICTION / FUTURE LAND USE JURISDICTION / ZONING
North City of Ocoee / Commercial City of Ocoee / Community Commercial "C -2"
East City of Ocoee / Commercial City of Ocoee / Community Commercial '`C -2"
South Orange County / Road Right -of -Way Orange County / Road Right -of -Way
West City of Ocoee / Commercial City of Ocoee / Community Commercial "C -2"
The existing land use to the west is "Commercial" (Kane's Furniture Store) and to the north is vacant with a
proposed commercial (Oaks Commerce Center) development. Both projects are part of the existing
Goodman Center Subdivision. To the east across Clarke Road is an existing large -scale shopping center
(Michaels, Pet'sMart, The Vitamin Shoppe, etc.). To the south across W. Colonia Drive (SR 50) is the on-
and off -ramps for the East -West Expressway (SR 408).
The (small - scale) Comprehensive Plan Amendment consists of classifying approximately 3.39 acres parcel
from "Professional Offices & Services" to "Commercial." Essentially, the subject parcel is proposed as an
extension of the existing "Commercial" development of the area. The Applicant /Owner is also requesting a
"Planned Unit Development" (PUD) zoning in order to accommodate a mixed -use commercial
development. Therefore, a Land Use Plan for the PUD zoning and a Preliminary Site /Subdivision Plan has
also been submitted by the Applicant.
The Land Use Plan proposes a mixture of uses which are Commercial, Retail, Restaurant, Restaurant w/ a
drive -thru facility, Medical Offices, and Financial Services. All other uses are proposed to be prohibited.
The Preliminary Subdivision Plan proposes three (3) commercial lots, which are sized to fit the proposed
A_1454735.2
building structures. All of the lots will be serviced by a common tract (Tracts "A "). Tract "A" will address the
requisite infrastructure (access, parking, sidewalks, landscaping, etc.) improvements. The Preliminary Site
Plan proposes 3 one -story structures with a total gross floor area of 30,443 square feet. The allocation for
the total square footage for each use proposed is: 16,358 square feet of Commercial, 4,500 square feet of
Financial Services /Commercial /Drive -thru Restaurant, and 9,585 square feet of Restaurant space.
Several oak trees at the peripheral and rear of the property are scheduled to be preserved as reflected on
the Tree Protection and Removal Plan. In addition, there are some trees at the proposed landscape islands
including the main entrance island (30" Oak) that are scheduled to be preserved. At this preliminary stage,
23 approved trees are proposed to be protected. Accordingly at Final Site Plan, the tree protection will be
further evaluated with the Landscape Plan in order to optimize the tree preservation program for the site.
As stated earlier, the subject site is located on the northwest corner of Clarke Road and W. Colonial Drive
(SR 50). Both roadways are designated as arterials roads. There is an existing left -turn lane on Clarke
Road that is planned to be used for the project's main entrance. Accordingly, storage capacity for this turn
lane will be analyzed during Final Site Plan approval. Water, sanitary sewer, reclaimed water, solid waste
and police & fire protection will all be provided by the City.
"Planned Unit Development" (PUD) zoning allows for a tailored development program. The waivers
requested on the Waiver Table are the major differences of this project compared to a project built on a
conventional zoned district. The first five (5) waivers pertain to the entire project. They are listed on a
waiver table on the coversheet for your review and consideration. Justification to allow the City
Commission to grant waivers from the Land Development Code is determinate upon the project
demonstrating an offsetting public benefit which is technically sound and measurable. As justification of the
waiver request, the applicant has agreed to enhance the landscaping and removal of existing utility poles
on SR 50.
Waivers 6 -10 are requested due to the lots being designed for single site structures. Access, parking,
sidewalks, and landscaping for the lots are provided via Tract "A ". All of the waivers requested are from
Article V of the Land Development Code. This section of the Land Development Code sets minimum
standards for lot size, lot width, building setbacks, building coverage and impervious surface ratios. Staff
recommends approval of the requested waivers as presented.
Finally, the applicant was made aware that the Comprehensive Plan Amendment (CPA) cannot be
transmitted to Department of Community Affairs (DCA) for final processing until the EAR (Evaluation
Appraisal Report) for the City of Ocoee has been adopted and submitted to DCA and DCA has made an
initial determination of sufficiency with respect thereto, regardless of whether the EAR has been
determined to be insufficient. Accordingly, the comprehensive plan amendment ordinance has been
drafted so that, if passed, it will be adopted seven days after the EAR has been submitted to DCA, and
shall become effective thirty -one days after adoption if no one has filed a petition with the Division of
Administrative Hearings in accordance with 163.3187(3). The zoning ordinance has been drafted so that it
becomes effective at the same time as the comprehensive plan amendment ordinance and the
development agreement will become effective at the same time as the zoning ordinance. Further, the
zoning ordinance, the development agreement and the Preliminary Subdivision /Site Plan for Ocoee Town
Shops shall be approved subject to the passage, adoption and effectiveness of the comprehensive plan
amendment ordinance for Ocoee Town Shops.
ISSUE:
Should the Honorable Mayor and City Commissioners approve a Small -Scale Comprehensive Plan
Amendment ( "Professional Offices & Services" to "Commercial ") Ordinance, PUD Land Use Plan /Rezoning
Ordinance and Preliminary Subdivision /Site Plan for the Ocoee Town Shops?

DEVELOPMENT REVIEW COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION:
The Development Review Committee (DRC) met on February 25, 2009 and reviewed the Small -Scale
Comprehensive Plan Amendment ( "Professional Offices & Services" to "Commercial "), Rezoning /PUD
Land Use Plan and Preliminary Subdivision /Site Plan for Ocoee Town Shops. There were comments to be
addressed from the City Attorney's Office that were identified in a written staff memorandum and presented
verbally. All of the comments were discussed and agreed to be completed by the applicant. The Applicant
felt confident that the Development Agreement and all requisite documents will be finalized and executed
by the applicant for presentation to the City Commission.
When the discussion was finished, the DRC voted unanimously to recommend approval of the Small -Scale
Comprehensive Plan Amendment ( "Professional Offices & Services" to "Commercial "), PUD Land Use Plan
and Preliminary Subdivision /Site Plan, subject to resolving the City Attorney's remaining comments before
the City Commission meeting.
PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION:
The Planning and Zoning Commission reviewed the proposed Small -Scale Comprehensive Plan
Amendment ( "Professional Offices & Services" to "Commercial "), Rezoning /PUD Land Use Plan and
Preliminary Subdivision /Site Plan for Ocoee Town Shops on March 10, 2009. City Staff presented a brief
overview of the project. City Staff and the Applicant answered several questions regarding tree protection,
parking demand, stormwater exfiltration system, elevation of the property, and the waivers requested for
the project. All of these questions were addressed adequately in the P &Z meeting. There was no one from
the public to speak regarding this proposal.
After finishing its deliberations, the Planning & Zoning Commission voted to recommend approval (4 -1) of
the Small -Scale Comprehensive Plan Amendment ( "Professional Offices & Services" to "Commercial "),
Rezoning /PUD Land Use Plan and Preliminary Subdivision /Site Plan as date - stamped received by the City
on December 24, 2008.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Based on the recommendation of the DRC and Planning & Zoning Commission, Staff recommends that the
Mayor and City Commissioners approve the Small -Scale Comprehensive Plan Amendment ( "Professional
Offices & Services" to "Commercial ") Ordinance, subject to the City Commission approval of the Right -of-
Way Vacation for the northern adjacent Unnamed Road. Furthermore, based upon the recommendation of
the DRC and Planning & Zoning Commission, Staff recommends that the Mayor and City Commissioners
approve the Rezoning /PUD Land Use Plan Ordinance, Development Agreement for Ocoee Town Shops, and
Preliminary Subdivision /Site Plan for Ocoee Town Shops date - stamped received by the City on December
24, 2008, subject to the City Commission approval of the Right -of -Way Vacation for the northern adjacent
Unnamed Road and the passage, adoption and effectiveness of the Small -Scale Comprehensive Plan
Amendment Ordinance, pursuant to Sections 7 & 8 of that ordinance.
