A major site plan request to construct a six -story, ±39,590 sq. ft. mixed-use building, as well as associated hardscape, landscaping, stormwater retention, and site lighting. Mr, Chris Bowley, Community Development Director, reviewed the information provided in staffs memorandum dated May 11, 2022 to the City of Casselberry Planning and Zoning Commission. Mr. Bowley reviewed portions of the Healthy Communities and Multi -modal Transportation Elements in the City's Comprehensive Plan and a timeline of City Policy Action (a copy is attached and made a part of the minutes). Mr. Bowley addressed the April 13, 2022 Planning and Zoning Commission comments regarding parking calculations, fire safety access, buffering, and the live -work concept. He said the City does not have any land to develop and there is no property left to annex into the city limits. Mr. Bowley requested the Planning and Zoning Commission approve case number SPR 21-11. The conditions of approval are as follows: 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 $10,500.00 must be submitted prior to the issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy. 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. A general discussion ensued regarding the lack of the cross access on the property and parking. The Commission felt that Mr. Bowley answered their questions. Mr. Hale asked the applicant to come forward. The applicant was not present at the meeting. Mr. Hale asked if there was anyone in the audience who wished to speak in favor of, or in opposition to, the request. Mr. Michael Townes, 552 Queens Mirror Circle, Casselberry, Florida came forward. Mr. Townes was concerned that the City would lose the single-family home community around the golf course and lakes. He appealed to the Planning and Zoning Commission to consider the height as it looks over the single-family homes and the impact to their privacy. Mr. Bowley explained that this type of development is limited to the City's major thoroughfares of South US Highway 17/92 and State Road 436 as supported by the Policy in the Comprehensive Plan.
