CASSELBERRY CITY COMMISSION Minutes of June 23, 2008 - Regular Meeting Page 10 of 17 The City of Casselberry is the applicant for the Transportation Concurrency Exception Area (TCEA). This area is the same as the Community Redevelopment District that is located along U.S. Highway 17-92 and a portion of State Road 436. Once the Department of Community Affairs approves the TCEA, the boundaries ofthe overlay district need to be applied to the Future Land Use Map. The TCEA Study findings were based on higher development intensities (Floor Area Ratio) and densities (Dwelling Units per Acre) within the TCEA. The properties owned by the City within the Concord Center and the City Center sites are targeted for this more compact development classification. Due to the proximity to the Concord Center property, an additional parcel owned by B&B Investments of Central Florida, which Black's Automotive is currently located on, has been included for the FLUM amendment. Ms. Jane Burgett, property owner, has provided a statement to the City agreeing to the proposed change to the property. The Concord Center site parcels designation will change from "Commercial" to "Major Thoroughfare Mixed-Use" and the City Center site parcels designation will change from "High Intensity Non-ResidentiallMedium Density Residential" to "Major Thoroughfare Mixed Use". Justification for the proposed changes were provided in the TCEA Study which was approved by passage of Resolution 08-1890. The Planning & Zoning Commission, acting as the Local Planning Agency (LP A), reviewed and unanimously approved LP A 08-07 and LP A 08-08 at their May 28, 2008 meeting.
