TA2013-05003
ORDINANCE NO.: 8423-13
REQUEST: Amendments to the Community Development Code
INITIATED BY: City of Clearwater, Planning and Development Department
BACKGROUND:
The Clearwater Business Task Force, established on April 7, 2011, submitted its iinal report to
City Council on August 29, 2011. The report consisted of 71 recommendations to change public
perceptions regarding the City being business friendly, streamline development application
processes and enable greater signage flexibility. The Planning and Development Department
reviewed each of the recommendations and presented to City Council ideas as to how many of
them could be adopted as well as a prospective timeframe for those adoptions to occur.
At the direction of City Council, the Planning and Development Department previously prepared
three text amendments to the Community Development Code addressing recommendations of
the Business Task Force. Staff is now proposing a fourth and final text amendment to address
the last outstanding code amendment authorized by City Council which will create a new process
for development agreements authorizing use of the Clearwater Beach hotel density reserve.
Additionally staff has included amendments to the Commercial (C) Zoning District establishing
veterinary offices as a Minimum Standard Development use and providing more flexibility for
the use at the Flexible Standard level consistent with other amendments implementing
recommendations of the Business Task Force.
ANALYSIS:
Proposed Ordinance No. 8423-13 includes amendments to Article 2 Division 7, Commercial (C)
District; Article 4, Division l, Required Permits and Approvals; Article 4 Division 6
Development Agreements; and Article 8, Definitions as outlined below.
1. Veterinary Offices [pages 2— 6 of OrdinanceJ
To better facilitate the movement of appropriate uses in and out of commercially zoned property,
Proposed Ordinance No. 8423-13 establishes veterinary offices as a Level 1 Minimum Standard
Development use in the Commercial (C) District. At present, the use is only allowed in the

District through a Flexible Standard or Flexible Development application. The Planning and
Development Department believes this is an appropriate Minimum Standard Development use
due to similar use characteristics and development impacts with other Minimum Standard
Development uses allowed in the District. The proposed amendment also provides additional
flexibility with regard to development standards through the Flexible Standard application
consistent with other uses allowed in the District and deletes the use as a Flexible Development
due to the additional flexibility proposed at the Flexible Standard level.
2. Development Agreements [pages 6- 12 of Ordinance]
Pursuant to City Council direction, Proposed Ordinance 8423-13 creates a new process for
development agreements involving requests for units from the hotel density reserve on
Clearwater Beach. Several sections of the Community Development Code are proposed to be
amended to implement this new process. Specifically, the definition of development agreement
in Section 8-102 is proposed to be replaced with definitions for Hotel Density Reserve
Development Agreements and General Development Agreements. Division 1 of Article 4 is
proposed to be amended to include a footnote that states that Hotel Density Reserve
Development Agreements are not reviewed by the Community Development Board and that both
required public hearings will take place before City Council. No changes to the current
development agreement review and approval process are proposed for General Development
Agreements.
Article 4, Division 6, Development Agreements contain several amendments. Specifically
Section 4-606.A sets forth that City Council may enter into General Development Agreements or
and Hotel Density Reserve Development Agreements. Revisions are proposed to Sections 4-
606.C. and D. that clarifies the two different review processes for the two different types of
development agreements. Hotel Density Reserve Development Agreements will be submitted
and reviewed by the Development Review Committee and then City Council will conduct the
two required public hearings and render a decision. The General Development Agreements will
follow the current process whereby the agreement is reviewed by the Development Review
Committee and one public hearing is conducted by the Community Development Board and the
final hearing by City Council. Proposed Ordinance No. 8423-13 also clarifies that Hotel Density
Reserve Development Agreements may be in effect for up to 10 years and General Development
Agreements up to 20 years.
Community Development Code Section 4-606.B states that the information required to be
submitted with a development agreement application is based on Section 4-202.A. This section
was recently amended to implement recommendations of the Business Task Force and gives the
Community Development Coordinator authority to determine the information required to be
submitted. Based on this, the Planning and Development Department has prepared an
application far the Hotel Density Reserve Development Agreement which will require the
following information to be submitted:
• Conceptual site plan
• Architectural elevations of all sides of the building

• Massing studying illustrating all sides of the building
• Survey (to ensure density/intensity calculations are accurate)
• Required contents for development agreements set forth in Code Section 4-606.G.
A new application is also being created for the General Development Agreements that makes it
clear that the detailed site plan and building elevations approved by the Planning and
Development Department ar the Community Development Board as applicable shall be included
as an exhibit to the General Development Agreement.
CRITERIA FOR TEXT AMENDMENTS:
Community Development Cod Section 4-601 sets forth the procedures and criteria for reviewing
text amendments. All text amendments must comply with the following:
1. The proposed amendment is consistent with and furthers the goals, policies and
objectives of the Comprehensive Plan.
A review of the Clearwater Comprehensive Plan identified the following Goals and
Objective will be furthered by the proposed Code amendments:
Objective A.2.2 Future Land Use in the City of Clearwater shall be guided by the
Comprehensive Land Use Plan Map and implemented through the City's
Community Development Code. Map categories are further defined in
Policy #A.2.2.1 below. [A.2.2.1 indicates that Office uses are allowed in
tha (�'nmmPmial TTPicrhhnrhnnrl (`nmmar�ial T imitprl anrl (�'nmmamial
..... �.,....�.....,...... .. .b ...............� ....,.,........,..,.. �,.......... ...... .�.................
General Future Land Use Map categories]
Goal A.3 The City of Clearwater shall ensure that all development or redevelopment
initiatives meet the safety, environmental, and aesthetic needs of the City
through consistent implementation of the Community Development Code.
Goal A.4 The City shall not permit development to occur unless an adequate level of
serviced is available to accommodate the impacts of development. Areas
in which the impact of existing development exceeds the desired levels of
service will be upgraded consistent with the target dates for infrastructure
improvements included in the applicable functional plan element.
Goal A.5 The City of Clearwater shall identify and utilize a citywide design
structure comprise of a hierarchy of places and linkages. The Citywide
Design Structure will serve as a guide to development and land use
decisions while protecting those elements that make the City uniquely
Clearwater.

Goal A.6 The City of Clearwater shall utilize innovative and flexible planning and
engineering practices, and urban design standards in order to protect
historic resources, ensure neighborhood preservation, redevelop blighted
areas, and encourage infill development.
The proposed amendments allow an appropriate use to be located in the Commercial (C)
District as a Minimum Standard Development use and allows similar flexibility provided to
other allowable uses at the Flexible Standard Development level. The revised development
agreement provision delineates two types of development agreements with different
processes and submittal requirements but does not change the purposes of such agreements
which supports comprehensive and capital facilities planning, the provision of adequate
public facilities, the efficient use of resources and the reduction of the economic cost of
development. As such the proposed amendments further the above goals of the Clearwater
Comprehensive Plan outlined above.
2. The proposed amendment furthers the purposes of the Community Development Code
and other City ordinances and actions designed to implement the Plan.
The proposed text amendment will further the purposes of the CDC in that it will be
consistent with the following purposes set forth in Section 1-103.
• It is the purpose of this Development Code to implement the Comprehensive Plan of the
city; to promote the health, safety, general welfare and quality of life in the city; to guide
the orderly growth and development of the city; to establish rules of procedure for land
development approvals; to enhance the character of the city and the preservation of

the city (Section 1-103.A., CDC).
• Protect the character and the social and economic stability of all parts of the city through
the establishment of reasonable standards which encourage the orderly and beneficial
development of land within the city (Section 1-103.E.2., CDC).
• Establish use limitations for specified uses consistent with the zoning district in which
they are allowed and the particular characteristics of such specified uses (Section 1-
103.E.10., CDC).
The amendments proposed by this ordinance will further the above referenced purposes as
use limitations are being established and revised for veterinary offices which are based on
reasonable standards and the characteristics of the use. The two proposed processes for
development agreements establish clear and distinct procedures for approving certain
development, the purpose of which is to ensure the orderly and beneficial development of
property within the City of Clearwater.

Section 4. That Article 4, Development Review and Other Procedures, Division 1,
Required Permits and Approvals, is hereby amended as follows:
This Development Code establishes the following types of development approvals: Level
One, Level Two, and Level Three. Level One approvals involve those development
proposals which are reviewed and approved by the city's professional staff. Level Two
approvals are those development proposals which are more complex and involve the
use of greater discretion by an appointed board accountable, through the appointment
process, to the city commission. Level Three approvals are those approvals which state
�
law requires action by the city Eer��FSS+a� council because they involve issues of public
policy in the first instance. The following graphic portrays this concept of different levels

RE: Review of Proposed Amendments to the City of Clearwater's Land Development
Regulations (Ordinance No. 8423-13) for Consistency with the Countywide Rules
Dear Gina:
Thank you for forwarding the proposed amendments to the land development regulations,
addressing development review standards for veterinary offices and the approval process for
hotel density reserve development agreements. Pursuant to Division 3.3 of the Rules
Concerning the Administration of the Countywide Future Land Use Plan (Countywide Rules),
Council staff has reviewed the amendments for consistency with the Countywide Rules,
concluding that they are not governed by the consistency criteria of the Rules and therefore are
not subject to the consistency provisions.
Thank you for forwarding the proposed code amendments for review. If you have any
questions, please feel free to call me at 464-8250.
Sincerely,
��,;s
