Public Notice. iEXPENDITURE I AMOUNT BUDGETED: I APPROPRIATION REQUIRED: None REQUIRED: None None SUMMARY Mr. Wayne Kozlowski has submitted an application for subdivision development for an 18 -acre tract of land located west of Laconia Street and south of Gladiola Avenue. This property is within the City of Sebastian limits, is not a recent annexation, and is currently zoned RS -10 permitting single-family development under the low density land use category. Subject plans reflect compliance with current RS -10 zoning requirements including minimum lot size (9,500 sq.8.), setback standards (25' front, 10' side, and 20' rear), open space requirements and all other dimensional criteria. Plans outline a total of 39 units on 18.40 -acres providing a density of 2.12 units/acre, placing the subdivision well below the 5 units/acre under current land use regulations, and below the development covenant for annexations of 3 units/acre. The primary point of ingress and egress will be located between lots 8 & 9 along Laconia Street, which is slated for widening from the current one -lane roadway section to a full access two-lane roadway as an element of scheduled improvements, by the developer, for the subdivision. Mr. Kozlowski is conveying 40 feet to the City along Laconia Street for the additional needed right-of-way. A secondary, emergency access tract will also be located south along Laconia Street between lots 4 & 5. The proposed subdivision will be served by water and sewer service as permitted by Indian River County Utilities. The Planning and Zoning Commission reviewed said request during public hearings held on February 17, 2005, and June 16, 2005, in which they forwarded a recommendation favoring approval. ACTION Conduct quasi judicial public hearing. Make a motion to approve, approve with conditions, or deny Resolution R-05-27.
