COMMISSION MEMORANDUM |
| | | |
| | | | | | | | TO: | Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Commission | | FROM: | Alina T. Hudak, City Manager | | DATE: | May 25, 2022 | | |
| SUBJECT: | REFERRAL TO THE PLANNING BOARD - SUNSET HARBOR OVERLAY OFFICE HEIGHT EXPANSION. |
| | | |
| | | | | | | | RECOMMENDATION
| The Administration recommends that the City Commission refer the proposed Amendment to the Planning Board. |
| | | |
| | | | | | | | BACKGROUND/HISTORY
| On April 6, 2022, the City Commission referred the subject discussion item (C4T) to the Land Use and Sustainability Committee (LUSC). The sponsor of the item is Commissioner Mark Samuelian. On May 13, 2022 the LUSC discussed and endorsed the proposal and recommended that the City Commission refer the attached draft Ordinance to the Planning Board. |
| | | |
| | | | | | | | ANALYSIS
| The proposed Ordinance amends Section 142-312 of the Land Development Regulations of the City Code, to allow for a limited area of the Sunset Harbor overlay to have buildings up to 75 feet in height. Specifically, for certain lots fronting the west side of Alton Road, north of Dade Boulevard, the maximum building height would be increased from the current 65 feet to 75 feet. The height increase benchmarks within the overlay, including the requirement for office use, remain the same.
Additionally, within the area proposed for the height increase, the minimum requirements for a clear pedestrian path would not be able to be adjusted by the DRB. Also, a height exception for decorative elements, not to exceed 16 feet above the main roofline, would be permitted.
