Notice of Public Hearing: The Notice of Public Hearing relative to first reading of Ordinance 20-1539 was advertised in the Orlando Sentinel on Thursday, September 17, 2020 in accordance with Section 163.3184 of the Florida Statutes. Staff Presentation: Planner Il Christina Hyson stated that Ordinance 20-1539 amends the Future Land Use Map (FLUM) designation from Seminole County High Density Residential to City of Casselberry Medium Density Residential for approximately 21.41 acres located at 3110 Howell Branch Road and 3128 Orava Lane. The total acreage of the subject properties exceeds the ten (10) acre limit for a small-scale comprehensive plan amendment and as a result the properties must undergo a large-scale comprehensive plan amendment which requires review by the Department of Economic Opportunity (DEO). Written notices were posted on the subject properties on August 26, 2020, and a notification letter was sent to all property owners within 500 feet of the subject properties on August 27, 2020. At its meeting on September 9, 2020 the Planning and Zoning Commission, serving as the City's Local Planning Agency (LPA), voted unanimously (6-0) to recommend approval of Ordinance 20-1539 to the City Commission. The request to amend the Future Land Use Map from Seminole County High Density Residential to City of Casselberry Medium Density Residential for the subject properties is: 1) consistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan; 2) compatible with the surrounding mix of land uses and zoning districts; and 3) City water is available to the existing development on the site, but sanitary sewer services are not currently available to the subject properties. However, hydraulic modeling was conducted to determine potential connections for both the potable water and wastewater systems to ensure that the estimated future demand for water and sewer utilities can be accommodated. Budget Impact: There is no impact to the City Budget. Recommendation: The City Manager and the Community Development Director recommended approval of Ordinance 20-1539 on first reading. Public Hearing: Mayor Henson stated this was a public hearing to hear and consider comments and questions regarding Ordinance 20-1539. Mayor Henson opened the floor for public participation. No one came forward to address Ordinance 20-1539. Mayor Henson closed the public hearing relative to Ordinance 20-1539.
