Submitted By: Francis Forman, Planner III, Planning & Zoning

 

Strategic Plan Link: The City's Goal of planning for a thriving future.

 

Executive Summary (General Business): The City has received an application from Redtail Design Group, acting as the agent for Gatlin Group Holdings II, LLC, the property owner, for the 9th Amendment to the Gatlin Commons PUD. The Gatlin Commons PUD encompasses approximately 124.59 acres and is divided into 21 parcels per the legal description. The site has been developed with a mixture of General Commercial, Office, Light Industrial, and Multi-family uses. This application will amend the PUD document to adjust the parking ratio for all medical office spaces. The proposed change is to Exhibit 6 - Proposed Development Standards, Section E(5).

 

Presentation Information: Staff will provide a presentation.

 

Staff Recommendation: Move that the Council approve the ordinance amending the Gatlin Commons Planned Unit Development as recommended by the Planning and Zoning Board.

 

Alternate Recommendations:

1.                     Move that the Council amend the recommendation and approve the ordinance.

2.                     Move that the Council not approve the ordinance and provide staff direction.

 

Background: The Gatlin Commons PUD was first approved in 2004 (P03-489) at which time the parcels were created and rezoned under the master PUD from St. Lucie County’s Agricultural (AG-1) to PUD. The master PUD was amended throughout the years to further improve the development and allowances, including commercial, offices, light industrial and multifamily dwelling uses. The creation and amendments to the master PUD are in accordance with Policy 1.1.4.13 of the Future Land Use Element, which establishes the zoning districts compatible with the City’s Future Land Use classifications. 

 

Issues/Analysis: The proposed PUD amendment is consistent with Policies 1.1.4.13, 1.1.4.16 and 1.1.4.17 of the comprehensive plan establishing the compatible land use classification and zoning districts, along with the allowable uses within the Gatlin Commons Regional Activity Center. The purpose of the amendment is to adjust the overall parking calculation for any medical professional offices within the overall master PUD to match Section 158.221(C)(14) of the City Zoning Code.
