As shown on the survey, there is an existing asphalt roadway within the 50-foot wide cross -access easement that connects all four lots of the subdivision, with a connection to Sebastian Crossing Boulevard on the east side of the applicant's property. Across the boulevard exists another cross -access roadway through Crossroad Plaza of Seb.stian, LLC's vacant property, which is used by Burger King and Sunoco patrons. The two access roads did not line up across the street from each other, Because of the closer proximity to the intersection of Sebastian Boulevard (CR512), the City's consulting engineer, Mr. Frank Watanabe. PE re*,,ues6ed the be relocated, a shift to the north, to ali n with the Crossroad Plaza access road driveway. The applicant has complied. However, the shift to the north has now moved the access road out of the 50-foot wide cross access easement. The applicant is in the process of compiling a document which will expand or add to the existing easement as needed for the new driveway, and the document will be recorded. A copy of the recorded document will be needed before the Certificate of Occupancy is issued. (See Note #20 on Sheet 4, Site Geometry Plan) h N The applicant is providing an off -site improvement constructing a public sidewalk along Sebastian Crossing Boulevard which will connect to the existing sidewalk along CR 512. However, in order to meet FDOT's design standards, the sidewalk will need to cross a small area of their property in the southeastern corner. The applicant is also in the process of compiling a sidewalk easement document, and a copy of the recorded document will be needed before the Certificate of Occupancy is issued. (See Note #20 on Sheet 4, Site Geometry Plan) Section 54-3-14.11(a) of the LDC states "If an existing landscape strip is provided on the adjacent lot, the required landscape strip may be reduced to five feet in width upon the recommendation of the planning and growth management director and approval of the planning and zoning commission." In order to accommodate delivery truck and emergency vehicle turning radii, the applicant has requested that the west side perimeter landscape strip be reduced to 5 feet, taking into consideration that future development on the adjacent lot will provide the additional 5 foot landscape buffer. The amount of required trees and hedge material is not being reduced. IRC Fire Department, IRC Utilities Department, and Environmental Health Department comments have been addressed. 24. Consulting Engineer's review: Applicant has addressed all comments. 26. Conclusion: The proposed 9,100 SF retail building site plan is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan, Land Development Code, and CR512 Corridor Overlay District Requirements. 26. Recommendation: Staff recommends approval of the applicant's request to reduce the west side perimeter landscape strip to 5 feet. Staff recommends approval of the proposed site plan with the following conditions: 1) Approval of a Traffic Impact Analysis and any required roadway improvements, if reauested., is received from IRC Traffic Engineering Department before a Certificate of Occupancy/Completion can be issued. 2) Copies of the recorded Cross Access Easement expansion and Sidewalk Easement are received before a Certificate of Occupancy/Completion can be issued.
