A ADDENDUM NO. 1 TO THE WRITTEN MATERIAL FOR CHESSER'S GAP PRELIMINARY PLAN FOR A COMMERCIAL PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT FOR SEBASTIAN GENERAL PARTNERSHIP B.F.T. Developments of Regional Impact (DRI) Analysis: Chesser's Gap will consist of three (3) distinct types of development as follows: 1. Office Parks 2. Indistrial Parks 3. Retail Services and Wholesale Facilities Chapter 28-24 of the Florida Administrative Code sets forth the following thresholds used to determine if a DRI Study is required for a development: 1. Office Parks Total Land Area = 30 Acres Total Building Area = 300,000 ft.2 2. Industrial Parks Total Area = 320 Acres Total Parking = 2,500 Spaces 3. Retail, Services and Wholesale Facilities Total Building Area = 400,000 ft.2 Total Land Area = 40 Acres Total Parking Spaces = 2,500 Spaces Chapter 380, Paragraph 380.06 of the Florida Statutes states for multi -use developments, with two (2) or more land uses where the sum of the percentages of the appropriate thresholds are equal to or greater than one hundred forty five percent (1450) then a DRI Study is required. Chapter 28-24 further states that if a develop- ment is at or lower than eighty percent (800) of all numerical thres- holds, a DRI is not required. The following is the quantitative values of the three (3) types of developments within Chesser's Gap. 1. Office Park Total Land Area = 15.18 Acres Total Building Area = 88,980 ft.2 2. Industrial Parks Total Land Area = 17.1 Acres of Total Parking Spaces = 200 Spaces Land Area = 3. Retail, Services and Wholesale Facilities Total Building Area = 201,930 ft.2 Total Land Area = 21.6 Acres Total Parking Spaces = 1,044 Spaces 320 Ac. The percent of the maximum threshold of each development is as follows: Total 1. Office Park 200 Spaces Percentage of Land Area = 15.18 = 50.6% controls 30 Percentage of Total Building Area = 88,980 ft.2 = 29.7% 300,000 ft2 2. Industrial Park Percentage of Total Land Area = 17.1 Ac. = 5.3% 320 Ac. Percentage of Total Parking Area = 200 Spaces = 8.0% controls 2,500 Spaces 3. Retail, Services and Wholesale Facilities Percentage of Building Area = 201,930 ft.2 = 50.50 400,000 ft.2 Percentage of Total Land Area = 21.6 Ac. = 54% controls 40 Ac. Percentage of Total Parking Spaces = 1,044 = 41.8% controls 2,500 The sum of the controlling threshold percentages are as follows: 50.60 + 8% + 540 = 112.690 As you can see from the herein analysis, the sum of the controlling threshold does not exceed eighty percent (80%) of the combined threshold of 145% or 116%, therefore this project does not require a DRI Study.

The proposed improvements to the intersection of C. R. 512 and Fleming Street, as detailed on the construction drawings, are in accordance with the project's Traffic Study and the proposed Indian River County improvements to C.R. 512. 2. All improvements within the proposed Fleming Street Extension and all the on-site stormwater tracts will be constructed dur- ing Phase I of the project. 3. The developer intends to file the final plan for Chesser's Gap PUD in phases as each lot is developed. 4. Indian River County has guaranteed water and sewer service to the project. Please refer to the attached letters. 5. As requested, by City staff, an emergency access has been added to the west property line of the project at Cross Street. The access will only be used in case of an emergency and will be constructed with a breakaway barrier. We hope the above further clarifies the development aspects of the project.

DATE: TO: FROM: REFERENCE: City of Sebastian POST OFFICE BOX 780127 ❑ SEBASTIAN, FLORIDA 32978 TELEPHONE (407) 589-5330 ❑ FAX (407) 589-5570 M E M O R A N D U M September 28, 1990 Planning and Zoning Commission Bruce Cooper Director of Community Developme.it Chesser's Gap Preliminary Plan Unit Development Sebastian General Partnership, B.F.T., has submitted their preliminary plan unit development known as Chesser's Gap in accordance with the Land Development Code. Chesser's Gap conceptual plan and rezoning was approved by the adoption of ordinance 0-87-09 on February 25, 1987. The City Council approved a time extension November 18, 1987 for submission of the preliminary development plan within 18 months after the City adopted a revised thoroughfare plan. The application has been submitted within the time restrains as set forth by the City Council. To get a better understanding of a Plan Unit Development. I would encourage all commission members to review Article IV of the Land Development Code regarding Plan Unit Development district regulations. This submission of the preliminary plan unit development is similar to and must meet the requirements of the subdivision ordinance. The applicant proposes to obtain preliminary approval for the Plan Unit Development which would then allow him to proceed with the construction of all required improvements. City Staff (Bruce Cooper and Dave Fisher) has reviewed the submitted preliminary development plan and have the following comments: 1. The applicant is requesting a waiver from Section 20A-4.1 3(B)(2) which requires graphic presentation of the general features of the proposed structures including floor plans and elevations. Staff has no objection to the request subject to the applicant is required to submit individual site plans for each site prior to any development. Basically, if approved as submitted this would be only allowing the developer to proceed in the construction of the required improvements for streets and drainage and to submit a final plat for the individual lots. Therefore. Planning and Zoning Commission can give conceptual approval to the individual site layouts as presented, but, would hold off any approval of the actual site until a site plan has been submitted and approved by Planning and Zoning Commission. Staff does not object to this type of procedure concerning a Commercial PUD which is of a magnitude that would dictate phasing of this development. 2. Mr. Rick Torpy, Assistant City Attorney, will be present at the October 9th special meeting to address the written opinion the Planning and Zoning has requested concerning ownership requirements and for any other assistance the Planning and Zoning Commission deems necessary. 3. Since the improvements to Flemming Street extension will result in a cul-de-sac until General Development Corporation completes improvements to Unit 16, staff has recommended that the Engineer develops an emergency access possibly to Wave Street on the westside of the property. 4. The preliminary plans must indicate street lighting in accordance with 20A -17.1(N) of the Land Development Code. 5. The applicant must provide sufficient paperwork to indicate that this development has committed sufficient ERU's to hookup to the North County Sewer Project. 6. The applicant must provide in writing assurances that the Indian River County utilities will permit this project to hook into General Development Utilities for its potable water. 7. City staff has recommended that the plat would represent a 50 foot easement along the perimeter of the project as a drainage and landscape buffer. Staff has informed the applicant's Engineer that staff is concerned with the landscaping buffer that the applicant will provide to assure protection from the abutting residential development. Staff has recommended a combination of earthberm with landscaping or a wall. Staff recognizes that the City Council approved the conceptual plan allowing the 100 foot setback from residential property included the 50 foot drainage right -a -way along the westside. 8. Attached in your packet is a copy from the Traffic Impact Analysis which the consultant has given their conclusions and recommendations. Any approval of this development should be subject to a county right -a -way permit being issued by Indian River County to insure that all the improvements will be met. 9. Staff has requested the applicant to install a bicycle/pedestrian path in accordance with Section 20A - 17.1(K). Since I will be away next week, the applicant is suppose to have these items addressed in your packet. If the applicant has satisfactorily complied with the above items, I have no objection to the proposed development. BC/gk chesgap.doc
