Carev, Trustee of the T & L Land Trust Address: 622 & 628 Bypass Drive CITY OF CLEARWATER PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT GENERAL INFORMATION: REQUEST: Flexible Development application to permit the addition of 20 off-street parking spaces for an existing 15,247 square foot office building in the Office (0) District with a lot area of 66,211 square feet (1.52 acres), a lot width of 152 feet (along Druid Road) and 438 feet (along Bypass Drive), a building height of 22 feet, a front (south) setback of 19 feet (to proposed pavement) and 90.2 feet (to existing building), a front (east) setback of 15 feet (to proposed pavement) and 88.3 feet (to existing building), a side (west) setback of 4.5 feet (to proposed pavement) and 9.9 feet (to existing building), a side (north) setback of zero feet (to existing building and pavement), and 73 parking spaces as a Comprehensive Infill Redevelopment Project under the provisions of Community Development Code Section 2-1004.B.; as well as a reduction to the west landscape buffer from five feet to 4.5 feet as a Comprehensive Landscape Program under the provisions of Community Development Code Section 3-1202.G. ZONING DISTRICT: Office (0) District FUTURE LAND USE PLAN CATEGORY: Residential/Office General (R/OG) PROPERTY USE: Current: Office Proposed: Office EXISTING North: Office (0) District SURROUNDING Offices ZONING AND USES: South: Medium Density Residential (MDR) District Attached Dwellings East: Office (0) District Office West: Unincorporated Util ity/Infrastructure Community Development Board—October 18,2011 FLD2011-07026—Page 1 �ANALYSIS: Site Location and Existing Conditions: The 1.52 acre property is located at the northwest corner of Druid Road and Bypass Drive. Bypass Drive is a commercial corridor that runs north to south between Gulf to Bay Boulevard and Druid Road. Along the corridor are primarily retail, office and restaurant uses. The property has 438 feet of frontage on Bypass Drive 152 feet along Druid Road and can be accessed from Druid Road, Bypass Drive and a shared vehicular access area to the north. As the property is located on a corner lot it has two front setbacks and two side setbacks. The surrounding land use is mainly commercial with an office located to the north, Sam's Club and vacant land to the east, attached dwellings to the south across Druid Road and a Progress Energy transmission line easement to the west. The subject property contains a 15,247 square foot office building housing Carey and Leisure Law offices which was approved through FLS2002-12082. Development Proposal: The proposal is to permit the construction of an additional 20 parking spaces on the southern portion of the parcel. No changes are proposed to the intensity, lot area or width, or setbacks to existing building. The existing building has setbacks ranging from a maximum of 90.2 feet to a minimum of zero feet. Regarding the site,the existing curbing along the southern drive aisle will be removed for the additional parking. The proposed parking area will have setbacks to pavement as follows: a front (east) setback of 15 feet, a front (south) setback of 19 feet and a side (west) setback of 4.5 feet. The existing parking lot along the side (north) is a shared vehicular access area and no changes are proposed there. Pursuant to Community Development Code (CDC) Section 2-1004, the minimum side setback for an office use can range between 10 — 20 feet. The proposed side (west) setback is 4.5 feet; thus the filing of a Comprehensive Infill Redevelopment Project application. The development proposal's compliance with the applicable development standards of the CDC is discussed below. Intensitv: Pursuant to the Countywide Plan Rules and CDC Section 2-1001.1, the m�imum allowable intensity is a floor area ratio (FAR) of 0.50. The proposal is in compliance with the above as it has a FAR of 0.235. Impervious Surface Ratio (ISR): Pursuant to the Countywide Plan Rules and CDC Section 2- 1001.1, the maximum allowable ISR is 0.75 for R/OG. The overall proposed ISR is 0.452, which is consistent with the above. Minimum Lot Area and Width: Pursuant to CDC Table 2-1004, there is no minimum required lot area or lot width for a Comprehensive Infill Redevelopment Project. However, for a point of comparison, the minimum lot area requirement for offices is 3,500 square feet. The subject property is 66,211 square feet (1.52 acres). Also for comparative purposes, the minimum lot width requirement for offices is 50 feet in width. The lot width along Bypass Drive 483 feet and along Druid Road it is 152 feet. Both the lot size and lot width are consistent with the above. Community Development Board—October 18,2011 FLD2011-07026—Page 2 Minimum Setbacks: Pursuant to CDC Table 2-1004, there are no minimum setback requirements for a Comprehensive Infill Redevelopment Project. However, for a point of comparison, the minimum front setback requirement for offices can range between 15 —35 feet and the minimum side setbacks can range between 10—20 feet. With regard to the existing building, the minimum required setbacks are all being met with the exception of the side (north) setback where the existing building and pavement are located on the property line. As this is an existing building and no changes are proposed other than additional parking it will not impede the development and improvement of surrounding properties. Regarding setbacks to pavement, flexibility has been requested for the side (west) setback to 4.5 feet to proposed pavement. The other setbacks to proposed pavement include a front (south) setback of 19 feet and a front (east) setback of 15 feet, both of which are within the minimum setback requirements. Staff supports the request for the side (west) setback of 4.5 feet to proposed pavement as the adjacent property is a Progress Energy transmission line easement and as such,the setback to proposed pavement will not visually be apparent. Maximum Buildin� Hei� Pursuant to CDC Table 2-1004, there is no m�imum allowable building height for a Comprehensive Infill Redevelopment Project. However, for a point of comparison, the m�imum building height for an office can range between 30 — 80 feet. The existing building height is 22 feet, well within the range based upon the above Code provisions. Minimum Off-Street Parkin�: Pursuant to CDC Table 2-1004, the minimum required parking for a Comprehensive Infill Redevelopment Project is determined by the Community Development Coordinator based on the specific use and/or ITE Manual standards. The off-street parking requirement for offices is three spaces per 1,000 square feet of gross floor area. For 15,247 square feet of office floor area, this results in a requirement of 46 spaces. Currently there are 53 parking spaces and 73 are proposed. The applicant conducted a parking study which showed that the office employs 51 employees, averages 10 to 15 walk in clients per day and conducts a minimum of one to two depositions and mediations per month. The average number of people attending depositions and mediations is between four and six. With this number of employees and clients, the parking lot is full on a daily basis which causes clients to park on Bypass Drive and Sam's Club parking lot. Staff supports the request for the increase in the number of parking spaces based on the parking study. Si�ht Visibility Triangles: Pursuant to CDC Section 3-904.A, to minimize hazards at the driveways, no structures or landscaping may be installed which will obstruct views at a level between 30 inches above grade and eight feet above grade within 20-foot sight visibility triangles. No structures or landscaping is proposed within the site triangles. Solid Waste: The existing refuse area is located on the south side of the building with appropriate screening. This has been found to be acceptable by the City's Solid Waste Department. Landscapin�: Since the existing use will not be improved in excess of 25 percent of the value of the principal structure, no landscape requirements must be met other than the requirements for the areas in which the parking has been expanded. Pursuant to CDC Section 3-1202.D.1,this site is required a 10-foot wide landscape buffer along Druid Road and Bypass Drive and a five foot Community Development Board—October 18,20l 1 FLD2011-07026—Page 3 wide landscape buffer along the west property line. The proposal includes a 15-foot wide landscape buffer along both Druid Road and Bypass Drive. Due to the required drive aisle widths, the proposed buffer along the west property line is proposed at 4.5 feet rather than the required five feet. Pursuant to CDC Section 3-1202.E.1, 12 percent of the gross vehicular use area shall be provided as landscape islands a minimum of eight feet wide and 150 square feet in size. The site proposes 15.1 percent of the vehicular use areas to be landscape islands. To mitigate for the deviations to the buffer requirements along the west property line, the applicant has provided additional buffer plantings along both Druid Road and Bypass Drive. Comprehensive Landscape Program: Pursuant to CDC Section 3-1202.G, the landscaping requirements contained within the Code can be waived or modified if the application contains a Comprehensive Landscape Program satisfying certain criteria. The following table depicts the consistency of the development proposal with those criteria: Consistent Inconsistent 1. Architectural theme: a. The landscaping in a comprehensive landscape program shall be designed as a part of N/A N/A the architectural theme of the principle buildings proposed or developed on the parcel proposed for development;or b. The design, character, location and/or materials of the landscape treatment proposed X in the comprehensive landscape program shall be demonstrably more attractive than landscaping otherwise permitted on the parcel proposed for development under the minimum landscape standards. 2. Lighting: Any lighting proposed as a part of a comprehensive landscape program is N/A N/A automatically controlled so that the lighting is turned off when the business is closed. 3. Communiry character: The landscape treatment proposed in the comprehensive X landscape program will enhance the community character of the City of Clearwater. 4. Property values: The landscape treatment proposed in the comprehensive landscape X program will have a beneficial impact on the value of property in the immediate vicinity of the parcel proposed for development. 5. Special area or scenic corridor plan: The landscape treatment proposed in the N/A N/A comprehensive landscape program is consistent with any special area or scenic corridor plan which the City of Clearwater has prepared and adopted for the area in which the arcel ro osed for develo ment is located. Code Enforcement Analysis: There are no outstanding Code Enforcement issues associated with the subject property.

The increase in off street parking is consistent with the established character of the area ond will eliminate the current need for vehides to park on the city street/sidewa/ks. D. In order to form a cohesive, visually interesting and attractive appearance, the proposed development incorporates a substantial number of the following design elements: • Changes in horizontal building planes. • Use of architectural details such as columns, cornices, stringcourses, pilasters, porticos, balconies, railings, awnings, etc. • Variety in materials, colors and textures. • Distinctive fenestration patterns. • Building step backs. • Distinctive �oofs forms. 1 � Flexibility Criteria (Office Zoning District) FLD2011-07026-622 Bypass Dr. RESPONSE- The proposed development has been designed to be a harmonious continuation of the existing parking area. The proposed design includes additional landscaping, and incorporates the same block material used in an existing retaining wa/l on site for the proposed retaining wall adjacent to the proposed parking area. E. The proposed development provides for appropriate buffers, enhanced landscape design and appropriate distances between buildings. RESPONSE- Enhanced /andscaping is proposed a/ong the south property line and around the proposed parking spaces on the west side of the property. 2 �DRE��URNT� ���� INST # 96-155382 Ou7da1i°°i,`d ����W.

BACKGROUND: The project is located on a 1.52 +/- acre parcel of land located at the intersection of Druid Road and Bypass Drive. The following buildings are located within the project property boundaries: • 8,615 square foot office building occupied by Law Office • 6,632 square foot office building occupied by Medical Records Office The law office currently employs 31 people and the medical records office employs 20 people. The total number of employees is 51 and there are 53 standard parking spaces and 4 handicapped spaces available. The available parking for clients is 2 standard spaces and 4 handicapped spaces. The law firm has on average 10 to 15 walk in clients per day and conducts at a minimum one to two depositions per month and one mediation meeting per month. The average number of people attending a deposition is 4 and the average number of people attending a mediation meeting is 6. On a monthly average the law firm will have at least two (2) depositions or mediation meetings occurring simultaneously and frequently (3) depositions or mediation meetings occurring simultaneously. On a daily basis the parking lot is full and clients are force to park on Bypass Drive, the ReMax Reality parking lot,Sam's Club Parking lot or the drive aisle within the subject parcel. The law firm has been notified on a few occasions by the Clean�vater Police Department that their clients were parking illegally within the ReMax Reality property parking lot. (See exhibit "A"for a map of the overflow parking areas) Page 2 PARKING STUDY& NARRATIVE ' • ' � ' ' � The following is an example of a monthly parking demand that occurs during 3 simultaneous deposition meetings: • 51 Employees • 15 Walk in Clients/Meetings • 14 Clients/Attorneys • Total =80 Employees/Clients/Attorneys The above example does not include visitors to the Medical Records Office. METHODOLOGY: It was agreed that a static parking count taken during the normal work week Monday through Friday would be sufFicient to document the current parking demand. The businesses normally operate Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM so a weekend parking count was not necessary. CITY OF CLEARWATER CODE REQUIEMENTS: Per section 2-1004 of the City of Clearwater code (Flexible Development) OfFice District the minimum parking requirement for the subject buildings is 3 spaces per 1000 square feet of building GFA. The total existing building GFA is 15,247, making the total minimum parking requirement 46 parking stalls.

It was observed that cars parking along Bypass Drive would park on the sidewalk obstructing the pathway of pedestrian traffic. It was also noted that there was an unsafe condition while opening the driver's side door when parked on Bypass Drive as trafFic speeds appeared to be greater than 30 mph. Also, clients / visitors that parked in the Sam's Club Parking lot had to cross Bypass Drive with no available crosswalk. Visitors that parked at the ReMax Reality parking lot did so illegally. The 20 additional parking spaces proposed will alleviate the daily unsafe parking conditions that exist today and should provide adequate parking for peak times when meetings at the law office occur simultaneously. The proposed parking ratio will be 5 / 1000 which is acceptable within the Office Zone District. If you have any questions regarding this report please contact me at 727-796-1926.

RESPONSE:Dumpster enclosure is existing and not part of this project 2. Sheet 7 of 10 shows the scales as 1"=10' scale does not match. Page 1 . RESPONSE:Drawing scale has been revised to 1"=10: 3. The plan indicates brick pavers, note. Must be able to meet the requirements of NFPA-1, 2006 edition Chapter 18 Clearwater Fire & Rescue has a weight of 80,000 Ibs ACKNOWLEDGE PRIOR TO CDB. RESPONSE:The brick pavers were install in 2003 and they are not/ocated over any storm vault or chamber system. The pavers are not part of the projeci: Land Resource Review 1. The proposed 1'-2' cuts adjacent to trees 602, 203, 604 and 606 is too close and too severe as these tree species are intolerant to these impacts. Either change the parking surFace to concrete with a monolithic curb on grade and provide W.A.N.E. aeration system or remove the trees. Note an inch for inch replacement ratio will be required. RESPONSE: Trees have been removed and rep/aced(see landscape plan). Plannin� Review 1. Show by a parking count / study why the site needs so much parking. Only 43 spaces area required but proposal is for 75 spaces. Staff is not inclined to support a side setback reduction to 4.5 feet when the site is compliant with parking requirements. RESPONSE:See Parking Stud y/narrotive. 2. Staff is not inclined to support 12 parking spaces in a row when parking requirements have been exceeded. RESPONSE:The 12 parking spaces are to be located within the existing paved area,no additiona/pavement is required. 3. Show calculations for interior landscape plantings. Note: Areas, such as retention ponds do not count toward interior landscape requirements unless they meet the planting requirements. RESPONSE:Interior/andscape calcu/ations have been revised and shown on the landscape p/an.Square footages of the interior landscape areas are noted on the landscape p/an. 4. A condition of Development Order will be that the two interior islands and landscape buffers identified on the landscape plan be planted per the approved landscape plan from 2003. RESPONSE:Noted on the landscape p/an sheet. 5. Identify what type of plant material is proposed for the two interior islands with new light poles and new power control boxes. Page 2 I RESPONSE: The interior islands will now remain in p/ace. 6. Correct site data table to indicate two side setbacks and two front setbacks, there is no rear and required parking spaces is 46 not 43. RESPONSE:Site data table has been corrected. Storm water Review 1. The lowest berm elevation is at 37.70,which is 0.52' lower than the top of control structure (38.22). Please address this issue. RESPONSE:The gnading plon now shows proposed contours for top and bottom of bank and directs the contractor to re-establish the top of bank. 2. Based on the site visit 8/18/11.The pond appeared to be wet, but the underdrain pipe was not flowing water. Please assess the underdrain condition and restore it to working condition. RESPONSE:I personally performed a site visit on 9-6-11 at 10:30 AM and noted that the water in the pond was at the weir elevotion 1.5'above the pond bottom. The 6" under droin was approximately f/owing ha/f full and appeared to be operoting correct/y. I personally made a return site visit on 9-7-11 (24 hours later)and noted that the pond had drained to the pond bottom. There was no visible standing water. l returned on 9-9-11 at 10:00 AM and noted that the landscape contractor had cut the gross in the pond bottom and banks and no visible woter was noted. 3. Please install a trench drain across the entrance at Druid Road or grade the new parking area so that runoff can sheet flow directly to the pond. Current design shows runoff is being directed toward the existing inlet at the entrance,which does not appear to capture runoff efFectively. RESPONSE:A trench droin and detail has been added to the p/an set. 4. Please note, only 20% percent void in stone layer is allowed for required volume. RESPONSE:The chamber calculations have been revised to show 20%void ratio. 5. When Rational Method is used, please utilize time of concentration of 60 minutes for both pre and post conditions. RESPONSE:Calcu/ations have been revised to show the rotiona/method with a pre& post development Tc of 60 minutes. 6. Please show all design elevations, including seasonal high water table(SHWT), on section B-B and pond the pond cross section. It is required that that the SHWT shall be 6" minimum below the stone layer of the StormTech chamber. RESPONSE:Information has been added to the cross sections. 7. Provide drawdown calculations of the existing pond and the proposed stormtech chamber meeting the City's 24 hour recovery requirement.
