The proposed development includes construction of three (3) buildings totaling roughly 57,600 square feet, as well as associated stormwater retention, landscaping, site lighting, pedestrian infrastructure, and parking. The City's Development Review Committee (DRC) voted to conditionally approve the site plan on October 15, 2020, and the Planning and Zoning Commission voted unanimously at its meeting on November 18, 2020 to recommend approval of the site plan to the City Commission subject to the following conditions: 1. The site plan approval shall be valid for one (1) year. An extension request may be submitted prior to the expiration of this approval. 2. A tree bank payment of $94,733.33 shall be submitted to the City prior to the issuance of building permits. 3. Provide copies of all local, regional, state, and federal permits for the project to the City prior to commencement of development. 4. All of the above conditions shall be fully and faithfully executed, or the site plan shall become null and void. The property is zoned I (Industrial), which is consistent with the Industrial Future Land Use Map (FLUM) designation, and meets all applicable zoning district regulations, including the proposed land uses, size and dimension regulations, impervious surface/open space requirements, stormwater management, landscaping, tree protection and off-street parking. In response to questions from the City Commission, Mr. Tardif advised that: the condition relating to payment into the tree bank was due to the fact that there is a lot of vegetation on the site and the landscape plans meet the City's regulations within the landscaping codes; however, there was not room to fit the additional trees so payment into the tree bank was the mitigation measure they are able to take. He also confirmed that the plans were for shell buildings and the units would be leased and built to suit the needs of the lessees; the site was intended for light industrial trades; the development name would be the Belle Avenue Industrial Park; and the site consisted of several parcels which were combined and has now been re -platted into one parcel consisting of 5.71 acres. Budget Impact: There is no impact to the City Budget.
