Recommendation
Review and consider Resolution No. 16-23, a request for conditional use approval to allow free-standing multi-family residential in the GC district.
Body
Background:
A Class V site plan application was submitted for a nine unit residential development located at 1405 N. Federal Highway and 716 N Lake Avenue. Prior to consideration of a Site Plan action, a conditional use must be granted to allow free-standing multi-family residential within the General Commercial (GC) district. Multi-family residential is permissible as an accessory use to commercial uses in the form of a vertical mixed-use development. Without a commercial use component, multi-family residential as a stand-alone use requires approval of a conditional use pursuant to LDR Section 4.4.9(D).
The Planning and Zoning Board (PZB) reviewed the conditional use request for free-standing multi-family residential within the GC district and recommended approval 6-0, subject to the condition that there is a maximum roof height of 35 feet with a maximum height of 48 feet for any architectural features, mechanical equipment, or rooftop appurtenances.
