Planning & Zoning Commission/ Local Planning Agency Minutes December 12, 2018 Page 8 Ms. Brenda Monger, 15 Plumosa Avenue, Casselberry, Florida came forward to speak against this request. Ms. Monger said the traffic in the area is incredible since Culver's Restaurant was constructed. She expressed concerns with the increased traffic in the area. Ms. Monger said that if she had more time she would acquire signatures from the neighbors in the area that are opposing the project. Ms. Monger said that the neighbors have given up and told her she was wasting her time. She requested the Commission prove them wrong. In response to the Commission's question, Ms. Hyson reviewed the zoning designation for the adjacent parcels. She stated that the zoning designation is compatible to the surrounding land uses and the proposed site plans meet the size and dimension criteria for that zoning. Ms. Hyson said there would be landscape buffering to ensure compatibility with neighboring uses. In response to the Commission's question regarding traffic circulation, Ms. Hyson said the traffic impact analysis would be addressed during the site plan review process. In response to the Commission's question, Ms. Hyson explained that Table 2-5.3 lists all the zoning designations on the top of the table and all the uses listed on the left side of the table and across the chart there is a "P" for permitted uses, a "C" for conditional uses and blank if it is a prohibited use. She said under the "CG" zoning district it shows a "P" for a permitted use. Ms. Hyson stated a scrivener's error occurred in an ordinance in 2016 that the "P' was accidently added to the table when a change was being made to a different land use on the table. She said that change was not advertised and it did not go through due process to make that change to Table 2-5.3, In response to the Commission's question, Ms. Hyson said that legally multifamily dwellings are not a permitted use within that district but the City's Table 2-5.3 incorrectly states that it is permitted. A brief discussion ensued regarding the property to the north that has a RMF -13 zoning designation, the project has a similar density as the RMF -13 zoning and the CL (Commercial Limited) is a transition zoning between commercial and residential. Ms. Hyson stated that the Planning and Zoning Commission would review the site plan and a conditional use request in January. She explained that a multifamily development requires a conditional use in that proposed zoning designation. Ms. Hyson stated that the Public Works Department currently has plans to expand the infrastructure on Concord Drive to add sidewalks, which will make that area more walkable.
