MEMORANDUM
TO: Community Development Board Members '7
FROM: Mark T. Parry, AICP, Planner III
RE:
Change in recommended conditions of approval
FLD2014 -09026 — 300 Pinellas Street
DATE: December 16, 2014
Subsequent to sending out the Staff Report along with recommended conditions of approval the
applicant requested a minor change to condition five. Staff reviewed the proposed change and
had no objections. This condition is as follows (with strikethrough to show the change):
That, prior to any permits, all future construction shall
provide stormwater treatment adequate to serve such
construction as approved by the Clearwater Engineering Department.
•
Staff recommends that condition five be changed as shown above.
The Staff recommendation for this case continues to be for APPROVAL of the Flexible
Development application to establish a Planned Medical Campus within the Institutional (I)
District under the provisions of Community Development Code (CDC) Section 2- 1204.0 subject
to the following conditions (as amended):
General/Miscellaneous Conditions:
1. That approval of this Flexible Development case is subject to the approval of applications
REZ2014 -09004 and LUP2014- 09003;
Timing Conditions:
2. That, as the Master Plan is implemented, property designated as parking on the Master Plan
but existing outside the Planned Medical Campus boundaries, be tied to the Planned Medical
Campus through recorded documents such as parking easements, deed restrictions or other
such conveyances as found acceptable by Staff, at such time as that parking is needed in
order to fulfill the parking requirements of the Planned Medical Campus and prior to the
issuance of any permits for any phase which triggers the need for that parking;
3. That prior to the issuance of any building permits, the Fire Department may require the
provision of a Water Study performed by a Fire Protection Engineer in order to ensure that an
adequate water supply is available and to determine if any upgrades are required by the
developer due to the impact of the project. The water supply must be able to support the
needs of any required fire sprinkler, standpipe and /or fire pump. If a fire pump is required,
then the water supply must be able to supply 150 percent of its rated capacity;
4. That, prior to any permits, all future construction in the Planned Medical Campus may
provide for stormwater treatment without attenuation provided drainage is routed to the
private 72 -inch pipe located in the parking lot south of Jeffords Street and east of Druid Road
South denoted in City records located to the south of Structure 305A3065.1;

Memorandum change in conditions.docx
14( rn
5. That, prior to any permits, all future construction shall provide stormwater treatment
adequate to concurrently serve such construction unless otherwise approved by the
Clearwater Engineering Department;
6. That prior to the issuance of any Certificate of Occupancy that copies of recorded documents
as required as outlined in condition 2, above, be submitted to Staff; and
7. That no expiration date is assigned to the Planned Medical Campus.
In addition, there is one typographical error which needs to be corrected; the ninth Findings of
Fact should read:
9. There is one active Code Compliance case for the subject property.
As noted on page four of the staff report there is one active Code Compliance case for the subject
property (BIZ2013- 00128) where a doctor is conducting a business without a Business Tax
Receipt (BTR). It is important to note that BTRs are not regulatory tools which can be used in a
punitive fashion to deny site plan or building permit approval. To the best of Staffs knowledge,
the doctor in question merely rents office space within a building owned by Morton Plant and
whose affiliation with Morton Plant Hospital is limited to admitting privileges.
