Need Summary Explanation/ Background:
A site plan application of this size is considered a major review which requires City Commission approval. If approved by the City Commission, the Applicant is seeking to develop two new five-story buildings and one new eight story building with a total of 233 dwelling units and 14,186 square feet commercial space and to approve a warrant to reduce the percentage of openings on the ground floor permitting the design with less than 40% as required by code (Schedule P. Section 3.3).
The Applicant obtained a special exception approval, by resolution 24R-10-259, for the approval of the use subject to site plan approval. The Applicant held a public meeting on Wednesday, December 3rd, in the Meeting Room located at St. George Park (3501 NW 8 Street, Lauderhill, FL 33311) at 6 PM, to discuss the proposal; however, no one from the public attended. Staff recommends approval of the site plan, with the conditions.
The proposal was reviewed and approved by the Development Review Committee, and the Planning & Zoning Board recommended approval of the proposal with the following conditions:
1. Provide a Unity of Title, Declaration of Restrictive Covenants, or similar document, that ensures the proposed dedicated permit parking for the residential buildings will remain adjacent to project as illustrated on the site plan.
2. Provide a copy of the recorded Plat Note Amendment, allowing 233 dwelling units on the subject property.
3. Provide a School Capacity Availability Determination (SCAD) letter with a “final” approval for the site plan from Broward County.
4. A copy of the Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED) plan approved by the Police Office must be submitted.
5. Substantial compliance with all conditions of approval with the special exception, granted by the City Commission by Resolution (24R-10-259).
6. All public artwork must be reviewed and approved by a public art committee, established by the City, in order to ensure its universal appeal and applicability.
7. A public art fee will be assessed equal to one (1) percent of construction value of improvements to real property, with a maximum payment of two hundred fifty thousand dollars ($250,000.00) in the aggregate for the entire development as provided for in the City’s Code of Ordinances (Section 6-35).
8. A Master Sign Plan must be submitted, prior to permit approval of the signs. The sign plan shall use the same colors and materials as the building, or may be part of the overall complex signage system developed in the tropical character. (Schedule P. Section 6.0)
9. Address any outstanding comments issued by the Development Review Committee, and substantial conformance to the City’s Code of Ordinances and Land Development Regulations.
