SECOND
Land Use Amendment to the City of North
Lauderdale land use map to amend approximately 39.786 gross acres of Irregular
8 Residential to Residential Medium Density-RMD (10.1 to 16 du/acre) and further request to consider
amending IRR 8 to Irregular 13.33 (13.33 du/acre) Residential instead of
Residential Medium Density-RMD (10.1 to 16 du/acre) per ORC report from DCA.
APPLICANT: Investment at Village Park Inc.
The applicant, Investment at
Village Park Inc., is proposing to
construct a townhome/condominium project with approximately 550 individually owned residential
units as a redevelopment project of an existing mobile home park. The project is located on the east side of
State Road 7, south of
This amendment will provide a stable, fee-owned residential community as an anchor and potential catalyst for redevelopment of the surrounding area. Thus, this amendment will further support Objective 1 of the City’s Future Land Use Plan Element, which is “to achieve and maintain a stable and diversified mixture of land uses by attracting infill development for residential purposes.”
In order to
accommodate this project, amendments to both the City of
The current land
use designation of the property is Irregular 8. In order to create proper land
use for the proposed project, the applicant had submitted a land use amendment
to change approximately 39.786 acres of land from Irregular 8 (IRR 8) to
Residential Medium Density (R-MD) (10.1 -16 dwelling units per acre). However, as the amendment moved through the
approval process at State and County agencies, the Objections, Recommendations and
Comments (ORC) report from the Florida Department of Community Affairs (DCA)
advised the County and the City that the land use maps should designate no more than 13.33 units/acre for the project.
The special extent of the anticipated use is explained in Attachment A, and made a part of this report.
In order to meet the criteria required for a land use amendment process, the applicant has submitted a detailed Impact Analysis Study pertaining to sanitary sewer, potable water, drainage, solid waste, recreation/open space, traffic circulation, mass transit, compatibility and public education. The analysis was provided by the Craven Thompson & Associates, Inc., and Billing, Cochran, Heath, Lyles, Mauro & Anderson, P.A. and reviewed by Calvin, Giordano & Associates, Inc. The analysis is based on 16 dwelling units per acre which exceeds the recommended approval of 13.33 dwelling units per acre, thereby, lessening the impact to the infrastructure and resources.
Impact Analysis:
Although the proposed amendment is for Irregular 13.33 du/acre, the impact analyses below takes into consideration the reduction of 39.786 acres of Irregular 8 Residential and the increase of 39.786 acres of RM (10.1-16 du/ac) Residential as was originally submitted.
Staff has reviewed the land use amendment and taken into consideration that the proposed use would be generally compatible with surrounding existing and planned land use and will not negatively impact natural and cultural resources. As the City Commission’s Advisory Board, the Planning and Zoning Board (P&Z) met on August 1, 2006 and after staff presentation and public hearing, the Board unanimously recommended approval of the proposed land use to the City Commission. The Commission adopted the land use amendment on first reading for transmittal to DCA on September 13, 2006 as advertised and included in your packet as Exhibit A amending the land use to R-MD (10.1-16 du/ac).
On August 17, 2007, the City received the Objections, Recommendations, and Comments (ORC) Report from the Department of Community Affairs. The ORC identified two objections:
“The public facilities data and analysis is not based on the maximum development potential of the proposed future land use change and insufficient data analysis has been submitted to demonstrate that an adequate supply of water will be available to support the amendment.”
The objection pertaining to
inadequate data for water supply analyses was the same that was received by the
County on the County land use amendment for all the FLUM amendments from other
cities except
ORC Objection #1(applied to N. L.)
Inadequate Potable Water Data and Analysis

ORC Objection #3 (applied to N. L.)

Response
The applicant stated that the original analysis was based on the maximum density permitted. The additional analysis that was prepared by the Broward County Planning Council was forwarded to DCA on July 23, 2007. As indicated in the information, the applicant had previously agreed to place a Declaration of Restrictive Covenants onto the property for a maximum number of 390 townhouse units and 160 three-story garden apartment units for a total of 550 units, approximately 14% less units than the maximum of 630 units. There is no commercial development proposed.
The staff feels that the comments in the ORC report from DCA have been adequately addressed. Therefore, the Administration recommends City Commission’s approval on the second reading and final adoption of the land use amendment that is before you this evening as Exhibit B. Should you concur with this recommendation, the City Attorney will read the revised title of the Ordinance into the record for your consideration.
RECOMMENDATION:
As part of the approval process, Staff requests that the City Commission take into consideration that the development will promote the City’s redevelopment efforts and provide additional housing choices to our residents. The Staff recommends the City Commission’s approval of the second reading and adoption of the attached ordinance as amended (Exhibit B) subject to the conditions listed below:
MOTION:
If the Commission concurs with
this request, the following motions are in order:
“To approve on second reading the final adoption
of the attached ordinance (Exhibit B) as amended permitting proposed land use
amendment to the City of North Lauderdale
Comprehensive Plan and Land Use map to change approximately 39.786 gross acres of Irregular 8 Residential to Irregular
13.33 (13.33 dwelling units/acre) and to authorize transmittal to
the Broward County Planning Council and the Florida Department
of Community Affairs (DCA) for recertification for a large scale review
pursuant to Chapter 163, Florida Statutes”.
