PROCEDURES: Quasi-Judicial
BACKGROUND/RELATED STRATEGIC GOAL:
This is an application for a residential, major development revised master/final site plan. The applicant is proposing the development of multi-family residential apartments consisting of 197 units within nine, 3-story buildings, including a clubhouse/pool amenity, supporting infrastructure, and upland preserve on approximately 23 acres, resulting in a total gross residential density of 8.56 units per acre. The subject site is located on the east side of NE Savannah Road between NE Coy Senda and NE Business Park Place in Jensen Beach. The project spans an area between NE Savannah Road on the west and the FEC Railroad right-of-way on the east, includes a portion of Warner Creek, is primarily undeveloped, and contains rare and unique upland habitat.
A master site plan was approved for the site for a multi-family development of apartments on October 23, 2012, via Resolution # 12-10.27. No application was submitted for a final site plan approval and the project did not build-out. The master site plan approval timetable was extended by multiple applicable State extensions and currently requires a final site plan approval by April 24, 2021.
The project site has a split future land use designation and corresponding split zoning classification. The two parcels with frontage on NE Savannah Road have a Commercial Office/Residential (COR) future land use designation and have a COR-2, Commercial Office/Residential zoning classification. The rear parcel that abuts the FEC railway right-of-way has a Medium Density Residential future land use designation and has a RM-8, Medium Density Residential District zoning classification. The project has demonstrated compliance with the development standards for each respective zoning district and future land use category.
As part of the development approval, the applicant has agreed to fund the construction of a four-way roundabout at the intersection of NE Savannah Road and NE Coy Senda with a contribution in addition to the required transportation impact fees which are due. In turn, the Board is asked to accept the contribution and the impact fees through a Budget Resolution and commit to the construction of a roundabout through a Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) sheet. The contribution plus the required transportation impact fees will be due within sixty (60) days of approval of the revised master/final site plan.
Pursuant to Sec. 10.5.F.9 a review of this application was not necessary by the Local Planning Agency.
