BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION: The proposed Ocoee Business Park Site Plan will be an industrial/commercial flex space park, located in Ocoee Business Park Subdivision Phase 1 on Lot 2. The site itself consists of approximately 6.84 acres and is situated on the west side of HM Bowness Road approximately 1,375 feet south of the Franklin Street intersection. There will be a total of (4) four 30,000 square feet, one-story, structures on the site consisting of a combined total of 120,000 square feet of industrial/commercial flex space. Adjoining subdivision infrastructure is presently being constructed under the Ocoee Business Park Phase 1 Final Subdivision Plan, which was approved by the City Commission on Oecember 16, 2003. However, it should also be noted that the Ocoee Business Park "Plat" has not yet been formally approved. The surrounding properties of the subject site are part of the Ocoee Business Park project and are currently vacant. Lot 2 will be the first lot to be developed under the Ocoee Business Park project. The improvements, which are currently being constructed for Phase I, included: 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 subject site (Lot 2) will have primary access from Ocoee Business Park Parkway, which will terminate at a temporary cul-de-sac. Additionally, a 6 feet wide concrete sidewalk with landscaping will be provided along the property boundaries to facilitate pedestrian travel. A total of three sitting areas will also be provided for pedestrian and patron use. The Future Land Use designation for the site is Light Industrial. The property is zoned Restricted Manufacturing and Warehousing (1-1), which permits development and construction of the proposed land use. Therefore, the requested use is consistent with directives of the Comprehensive Plan and the adopted Land Oevelopment Code (LOC). February 1, 2005 Honorable Mayor and City Commissioners Page 2 DEVELOPMENT REVIEW COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION: The Development Review Committee (DRC) met on Oecember 16, 2004 and reviewed the Preliminary/Final Site Plan. There were minor technical issues to be addressed from the City Attorney and Planning Oivision that were identified in written staff comments and presented verbally. All of the issues were discussed and a few minor changes to the Plan were agreed upon. In addition, the applicant was made aware of the following issues: 1. A building permit will not be issued until the Ocoee Business Park Phase 1 "Plat" has been properly approved, executed and recorded. 2. A building permit can be secured with the understanding that a Certificate of Occupancy (C.O.) will not be issued until all infrastructure of Ocoee Business Park Phase 1 is constructed resulting in an issuance of a Certificate of Completion. When the discussion was finished, the ORC voted unanimously to recommend approval of the Preliminary/Final Site Plan, subject to the developer making changes specified in the reports and incorporating the request into the proposal as discussed. These changes were made and shown on the plans date stamped "Received January 6, 2005."
