Le!!al Advertisement: Advertised in the Orlando Sentinel on September 27,2007. Staff Presentation bv Sandra Smith. Chief Planner: Ordinance 07-1228 amends the Unified Land Development Regulations (ULDR) Section 2-7.26, Seminola Boulevard Overlay District (SBOD) Design Guidelines (LPA 07-01). The applicant, Geneva School, is requesting these amendments in conjunction with their request to amend the Conceptual Plan for the Legacy Park Planned Development (SPR-07-01). The applicant will be paying a recreational impact fee of over $320,000 for the residential units going into the park. These fees will be utilized for new City parks or improving the existing parks. The amendments to the design guidelines are listed as follows: · Allowing condos within the design requirements for apartments. A condominium is owner-occupied versus an apartment which is occupied by a lessee. This is basically providing an additional descriptor: the design criterion is the same. . Active Parks - Eliminating public use of the "active parks" within the Seminola Boulevard Overlay District Guidelines. The park, when owned by the Church had the potential to be used by the residents of Legacy Park and the public. The proposed use is for a private school, and due to safety and liability concern, the park will not be available for public use. . The term "school" replaces the term "places of worship" and "church" throughout the guidelines. The term "school" is defined and various design elements have been affected to produce the fal'ade.
