WHEREAS, the purpose of this Resolution is to provide notice that the City is developing an ordinance to amend Article III, Development Agreements, amend Section 2-5.4, Size and Dimension Criteria, Table 2-5.4, and repeal and replace Article XX, Planned Unit Development, and to inform all interested parties that all applications will be subject to the amendments that are in process, and that those draft amendments are available for review. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF CASSELBERRY, FLORIDA, AS FOLLOWS: SECTION I. Legislative Findings. The above recitals are hereby adopted as the legislative findings of the City Commission. The City Commission finds and determines that there is competent substantial evidence to support the findings and determinations made in this Section. SECTION II. Recognizing Legislation in Progress. The City of Casselberry hereby recognizes and confirms that legislation is in progress to adopt amendments to the Unified Land Development Regulations regarding Article I11, Development Agreements, Section 2-5.4, Size and Dimension Criteria, Table 2-5.4, and Article XX, Planned Unit Development. The proposed amendments to Article III provide clarity on the applicability of the Article, clarify and streamline the review and negotiations process, and provide consistency with the current Florida Statutes with regards to the duration of a development agreement and removing the requirement to transmit the recorded development agreement to the state land planning agency. The proposed amendments to Section 2-5.4, Table 2-5.4 will include a footnote stating that existing mobile home parks rezoning to RMHP will follow the development agreement process in Article III in order to establish minimum lot area, minimum required lot width, and setbacks. Additionally, the proposed changes will provide consistency between Table 2-5.4 and the requirements provided in Article XX with regards to minimum lot area requirements for PRD, PMX-L, PMX-H, PMX- MID, and PMX-HIGH zoning districts. Article XX will be repealed and replaced with new general regulations, concept plan requirements, streamlined review and approval procedures, and new required content for planned unit development agreements. Drafts of all ordinances are available for review. Staff is directed not to issue any approvals for development orders or other land use activity within the City of Casselberry which would allow zoning amendments to any PUD district that are in conflict with the pending amendments. General maintenance of lawful structures or accessory structures is exempted from the reach of this Resolution, as are applications to replace lawfully existing structures, so long as the structure, once replaced, complies with all existing provisions of the Code of the City of Casselberry. SECTION III. CONFLICTS. All Resolutions or parts of Resolutions in conflict with any of the provisions of this Resolution are hereby repealed to the extent of the conflict. SECTION IV. SEVERABILITY. If any Section or portion of a Section of this Resolution proves to be invalid, unlawful, or unconstitutional, it shall not be held to invalidate or impair the validity, force, or effect of any other Section or part of this Resolution. SECTION V. EFFECTIVE DATE. This Resolution shall become effective immediately upon its passage and adoption. 2
