Access to the site is from Nicole Boulevard. This is on a 6.184 acre remnant property that is wooded with no structures and has a zoning designation of R-1. The R-1 zoning designation permits single-family lots with a minimum width of 70 feet and an overall lot size of 7,000 square feet. The Future Land Use designation for this subject site is "Low - Density Residential" which allows up to four (4) dwelling units per acre. The surrounding future land uses are "Low -Density Residential" on all sides. A stormwater pond, which has been reviewed and approved by staff and the St. Johns River Water Management District, will be maintained by the City. The Nicole Boulevard Subdivision will be developed as a one -phase subdivision, and this proposed project consists of 19 lots meeting or exceeding the minimum lot size requirement of the R-1 zoning district with construction of a new public road entailing sidewalks and a cul-de-sac. This road will be maintained by the City. There is a significant elevation change from Nicole Boulevard to the rear of the property. The elevation of the property adjacent to Nicole Boulevard is 117 feet whereas the rear of the property sits at 147 feet. There currently is not a homebuilder associated with this project. School capacity determination will need to be submitted to which a Capacity Enhancement Agreement will be required prior to being heard before the City Commission. All proposed lots will be on city water and sewer. Development Review Committee (DRC) Recommendation: The Development Review Committee (DRC) reviewed the Nicole Subdivision Preliminary & Final Subdivision Plan on May 24, 2018. There were several technical issues to be addressed by the Engineering Department regarding the stormwater pond and piping.

B. Land Development Code (LDC) Amendment Concerning Collection Bins and Collection Trailers. (Advertised in the West Orange Times on Thursday, August Z 2018) (City Planner Rumer) (6:47pro) City Planner Rumer presented a brief overview of this proposed amendment relative to Article II, Section 2-4 Definitions and Article VI, Section(s) 6-14, Commercial and Industrial Development Regulations, and 6-15 Multi -family Development Standards concerning Collection Bins and Collection Trailers. The City currently regulates the location of storage containers or dumpsters by requiring them to only be located on a parcel within a fully -screened masonry enclosure designed for that purpose. City Planner Rumor explained what the clothes donation bins are and what they look like; and further, he stated the City has removed such bins when they would show up on commercial property. The City has also determined that clothes and other recyclable or donation bins are regulated under those same criteria. In order to more clearly define how clothes collection bins and collection trailers are regulated, an amendment to the Land Development Code defining the terms and regulations is being proposed. 3 Planning and Zoning Commission Meeting August 14, 2018 Below is the revised definition to the Land Development Code: "Collection bin or Collection trailer: Any stationary or free-standing container, receptacle or similar device that is located outdoors on any property within the City and is used for the collection of donated items, such as clothing, books, shoes or other non- perishable personal property, and which includes a mobile trailer used for the collection of donated items. This term does not include any of the following: (1) a bin used for the collection of donated items associated with a special event, provided the bin is removed when the special event ends, but in no event later than forty-eight (48) hours after being placed at the special event site; and (2) a container for the collection of recyclable materials associated with the City of Ocoee or the Orange County Solid Waste Division." Staff is also proposing to amend the requirements of dumpsters and storage containers with the following language: "No long-term storage containers, compactors, collection bins, collection trailers, or dumpsters will be located on a parcel except within fully -screened masonry enclosures designed for that purpose." "No outside freestanding vending machines, video games, propane stations, electric rides, newspaper boxes, collection bins, collection trailers, or similar equipment shall be permitted unless substantially screened from view from adjacent roads or parking areas." Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends that the Planning and Zoning Commission recommend approval of amendments to the Land Development Code (LDC) relative to Article 11, Section 2-4 Definitions and Article VI, Section(s) 6-14, Commercial and Industrial Development Regulations and 6-15, Multi -family Development Standards concerning Collection Bins and Collection Trailers. Discussion: Member Mellen mentioned he is not a big fan of the collection trailers, because they are big and unsightly. He stated it seems like a big jump from a trailer to a bin. City Planner Rumer stated a lot of times there will be a couple of bins inside of the trailers; and further, stated that this is a code enforcement issue. Chair Keller opened the public hearing and asked if there is anyone present who wishes to speak on this proposed amendment. As no one wished to speak, the public hearing was closed. 4 Planning and Zoning Commission Meeting August 14, 2018 (6:53 pm) Motion: Move that the Planning and Zoning Commission, acting as the Local Planning Agency, recommend to the Ocoee City Commission Approval_ of the Land Development Code (LDC) Amendment Concerning Collection Bins and Collection Trailers, subject to resolution of the remaining staff comments before the City Commission meeting; Moved by Member Wunderfich, Seconded by Member Bernstein; motion passed unanimous) 4-0 with Vice -Chair Williams absent.
