REZ2017-10012 - Gulf to Bay Self Storage
Responses to Rezoning Atlas Amendment Standards for Review
The proposed amendment is consistent with and furthers the goals,
policies and objectives of the Comprehensive Plan and furthers the
purposes of the Community Development Code and other City
ordinances and actions designed to implement the Plan in the following
ways: The zoning atlas amendment furthers the goals, objectives, and
policies of the Comprehensive Plan by providing a sufficient variety and
amount of future land use categories and accommodating public
demand and promoting infill redevelopment. See Goal A.2. The
amendment will allow for the development of a self -storage facility
subject of the contemporaneously filed FLD2017-09018. The project will
be a commercial zoning and shall be located at the intersection of
arterial or collector street (Gulf to Bay Blvd.) and will be sited in such a
way as to minimize the intrusion of off-site impacts into residential
neighborhoods. See Policy A.2.2.8. The project will provide for safe on-
site traffic circulation and connections to adjacent arterial and collector
streets consistent with Florida Department of Transportation, Institute of
Traffic Engineers design guidelines, and other applicable roadway
design standards, policies, and guidelines. See Policy A.2.2.11. The
redevelopment will meet the safety, environmental, and aesthetic needs
of the city pursuant to Goal A.3. The redevelopment will be supported
by the available community and public facilities that are required to serve
the development pursuant to Goal A.4. The redevelopment will support
the character of the surrounding commercial properties consistent with
Policies A.5.3 and A.5.4. The redevelopment will promote high quality
design standards that support Clearwater's image and contribute to its
identity consistent with Policy A.5.5. The redevelopment is innovative
planned development that accomplishes infill development that is
consistent and compatible with the surrounding environment pursuant
to Policy A.6.2.
2. The available uses to which the property may be put are appropriate to
the property which is subject to the proposed amendment and
compatible with existing and planned uses in the area. The existing uses
to the east, south, and west are all Commercial General. The uses to
the north are LMDR. The subject site is currently a mixed use of
Commercial General and Residential/Office General. The amendment
will make the site's use consistent with the surrounding uses that front
Gulf to Bay and abut Rainbow Drive. This site will be developed as a
self -storage facility which is the subject of the contemporaneously filed
FLD 2017-09018.
3. The amendment does not conflict with the needs and character of the
neighborhood and city. The zoning is consistent with the commercial
redevelopment pattern of Gulf to Bay Blvd. The project is design as to
mitigate the impact on the residential street to the north and will not
conflict with the needs or character of the surrounding properties.
Page 1 of 2
4. The amendment will not adversely or unreasonably affect the use of
other property in the area. Compared to the existing office on the
property, the proposed use of self -storage facility will eliminate all traffic
flow to Rainbow Drive and provide an enhanced buffer for the single-
family residential lots to the north. The secured, enclosed design of the
facility will also have a significant, positive impact on vagrancy on the
property.
5. The amendment will not adversely burden public facilities, including the
traffic -carrying capacities of streets, in an unreasonably or
disproportionate manner. Compared to the existing office on the
property, the proposed use of self -storage will generate less traffic and
consume less water and sanitary capacity.
6. The district boundaries are appropriately drawn with due regard to the
locations and classifications of streets, ownership lines, existing
improvements and the natural environment. The rezoning is restricted
to one parcel that is currently a mixed -zoned parcel. The amendment
will make the zoning of the parcel consistent with the other adjacent
parcels zoned commercial. The proposed self -storage development will
have less impervious area than the existing office development. The
stormwater management system also will be upgraded to meet current
standards. There are no wetlands or other sensitive environmental
features on the property.

Re: LUP2017-10011 (Comprehensive Plan Amendment), and
REZ2017-10012 (Zoning Atlas Amendment)
Gulf to Bay Self Storage, 300 S. Duncan Avenue
Dear Ms. Matzke:
We are writing in response to your letter of Incompleteness for the subject
application, dated October 4, 2017. A listing of your comments and our
responses (in italics) is provided below:
Comprehensive Plan Amendment
1. Legal Description: Confirm the legal description listed on Page 1 of the
application is only for that portion of the parcel requested to be amended
(application states 2.811 acres).
Response: The application has been revised to reference the
supplemental sketch and description of only the area to be amended.
2. Property Designations: Because only a portion of the site is proposed
to be amended, "present" designations on Page 2 of the application
should list only the designation on that portion or the parcel. The present
and requested Countywide Plan Map category is not listed. 2.811 acres
site area is 122,447 SF, which differs from what is listed on the
application — confirm all calculations and acreage match. Current
allowable density / intensity should not include the additional
development potential from the requested TDR; please include GSF
both with and without the proposed TDR under proposed.
Response: The application has been revised to show the present
designation of only the area to be amended, and the Countywide Plan
Map designations have been added. 12Z459 SF is the correct parcel
area, which equals 2.811 acres when rounded to the nearest thousandth
of an acre. The GSF figures have been revised as requested.
3. Response to review standard 1 regarding consistency with the City's
Comprehensive Plan does not reference any goals, objectives or
policies of the Plan. Response to review standard 3 does not address

the uses on South Duncan Avenue or Rainbow Drive, on which the
proposed amendment area is located.
Response: The application has been revised to incorporate the
following:
The comprehensive land use amendment furthers the goals, objectives,
and policies of the Comprehensive Plan by providing a sufficient variety
and amount of future land use categories and accommodating public
demand and promoting infill redevelopment. See Goal A.2. The
amendment will allow for the development of a self -storage facility
subject of the contemporaneously filed FLD2017-09018. The project will
be a commercial land use and shall be located at the intersection of
arterial or collector street (Gulf to Bay Blvd.) and will be sited in such a
way as to minimize the intrusion of off-site impacts into residential
neighborhoods. See Policy A.2.2.8. The project will provide for safe on-
site traffic circulation and connections to adjacent arterial and collector
streets consistent with Florida Department of Transportation, Institute of
Traffic Engineers design guidelines, and other applicable roadway
design standards, policies, and guidelines. See Policy A.2.2.11. The
redevelopment will meet the safety, environmental, and aesthetic needs
of the city pursuant to Goal A.3. The redevelopment will be supported
by the available community and public facilities that are required to serve
the development pursuant to Goal A.4. The redevelopment will support
the character of the surrounding commercial properties consistent with
Policies A.5.3 and A.5.4. The redevelopment will promote high quality
design standards that support Clearwater's image and contribute to its
identity consistent with Policy A.5.5. The redevelopment is innovative
planned development that accomplishes infill development that is
consistent and compatible with the surrounding environment pursuant
to Policy A. 6.2.
The existing uses to the east, south, and west are all Commercial
General. The uses to the north are LMDR. The subject site is currently
a mixed use of Commercial General and Residential/Office General.
The amendment will make the site's use consistent with the surrounding
uses that front Gulf to Bay and abut Rainbow Drive.

Zoning Atlas Amendment
1. Legal Description: Confirm the legal description listed on Page 1 of the
application is only for that portion of the parcel requested to be amended
(application states 2.811 acres).
Response: The application has been revised to reference the
supplemental sketch and description of only the area to be amended.
2. Property Designations: Because only a portion of the site is proposed
to be amended, "present' designations on Page 2 of the application
should list only the designation on that portion. 2.811 acres site area is
122,447 SF, which differs from what is listed on the application — confirm
all calculations and acreage match. Current allowable density / intensity
should not include the additional development potential from the
requested TDR; please include GSF both with and without the proposed
TDR under proposed.
Response: The application has been revised to show the present
designation of only the area to be amended. 122,459 SF is the correct
parcel area, which equals 2.811 acres when rounded to the nearest
thousandth of an acre. The GSF figures have been revised as
requested.
3. The application did not include page 4 response to review standards;
consider previous comments regarding the application for
Comprehensive Plan Amendment where applicable, for the appropriate
Zoning Atlas amendment criteria.
Response: The application has been revised to incorporate the
following:
1. The proposed amendment is consistent with and furthers the goals,
policies and objectives of the Comprehensive Plan and furthers the
purposes of the Community Development Code and other City
ordinances and actions designed to implement the Plan in the
following ways: The zoning atlas amendment furthers the goals,
objectives, and policies of the Comprehensive Plan by providing a
sufficient variety and amount of future land use categories and
accommodating public demand and promoting infill redevelopment.
See Goal A.2. The amendment will allow for the development of a
self -storage facility subject of the contemporaneously filed FLD2017-
09018. The project will be a commercial zoning and shall be located
at the intersection of arterial or collector street (Gulf to Bay Blvd.) and
will be sited in such a way as to minimize the intrusion of off-site
impacts into residential neighborhoods. See Policy A.2.2.8. The
project will provide for safe on-site traffic circulation and connections
to adjacent arterial and collector streets consistent with Florida
Department of Transportation, Institute of Traffic Engineers design
guidelines, and other applicable roadway design standards, policies,
and guidelines. See Policy A.2.2.11. The redevelopment will meet
the safety, environmental, and aesthetic needs of the city pursuant
Page 3 of 5
ST00cora
DEYELOPtgf1l,
ru
Gulf to Bay Self Storage, October 6, 2017
to Goal A.3. The redevelopment will be supported by the available
community and public facilities that are required to serve the
development pursuant to Goal A.4. The redevelopment will support
the character of the surrounding commercial properties consistent
with Policies A.5.3 and A.5.4. The redevelopment will promote high
quality design standards that support Clearwater's image and
contribute to its identity consistent with Policy A.5.5. The
redevelopment is innovative planned development that
accomplishes infill development that is consistent and compatible
with the surrounding environment pursuant to Policy A.6.2.
2. The available uses to which the property may be put are appropriate
to the property which is subject to the proposed amendment and
compatible with existing and planned uses in the area. The existing
uses to the east, south, and west are all Commercial General. The
uses to the north are LMDR. The subject site is currently a mixed use
of Commercial General and Residential/Office General. The
amendment will make the site's use consistent with the surrounding
uses that front Gulf to Bay and abut Rainbow Drive. This site will be
developed as a self -storage facility which is the subject of the
contemporaneously filed FLD 2017-09018.
3. The amendment does not conflict with the needs and character of
the neighborhood and city. The zoning is consistent with the
commercial redevelopment pattern of Gulf to Bay Blvd. The project
is design as to mitigate the impact on the residential street to the
north and will not conflict with the needs or character of the
surrounding properties.
4. The amendment will not adversely or unreasonably affect the use of
other property in the area. Compared to the existing office on the
property, the proposed use of self -storage facility will eliminate all
traffic flow to Rainbow Drive and provide an enhanced buffer for the
single-family residential lots to the north. The secured, enclosed
design of the facility will also have a significant, positive impact on
vagrancy on the property.
5. The amendment will not adversely burden public facilities, including
the traffic -carrying capacities of streets, in an unreasonably or
disproportionate manner. Compared to the existing office on the
property, the proposed use of self -storage will generate less traffic
and consume less water and sanitary capacity.
6. The district boundaries are appropriately drawn with due regard to
the locations and classifications of streets, ownership lines, existing
improvements and the natural environment. The rezoning is
restricted to one parcel that is currently a mixed -zoned parcel. The
amendment will make the zoning of the parcel consistent with the
other adjacent parcels zoned commercial. The proposed self -
storage development will have less impervious area than the existing
office development. The stormwater management system also will
Page 4 of 5
Gulf to Bay Self Storage, October 6, 2017
be upgraded to meet current standards. There are no wetlands or
other sensitive environmental features on the property.
4. It is not necessary to provide a survey for the parcel associated with the
TDR application as part of this application.
Response: Noted.

SUBJECT/RECOMMENDATION:
Clearwater City Commission Work session Item #:
Agenda Cover Memorandum
Final Agenda Item #
Work Session Meeting 1/16/18
Date:
Deny a Zoning Atlas Amendment from the Office (0) District to the Commercial (C) District for 300 South
Duncan Avenue; and do not pass Ordinance 9102-18 on first reading. (REZ2017-10012)
SUMMARY:
This Zoning Atlas amendment involves 2.807 acres of a 3.196 -acre parcel located on the west side of South Duncan
Avenue, approximately 280 feet north of Gulf to Bay Boulevard (SR 60). The property is owned by Rental Houses,
LLC and is occupied by a three-story, 69,000 square foot office building with ancillary off-street parking. The overall
parcel is a flag lot, where the proposed amendment area has frontage on South Duncan Avenue (310 feet) and
Rainbow Drive (396 feet). A narrow portion of the parcel extends to Gulf to Bay Boulevard (60 feet of frontage),
approximately 345 feet west of South Duncan Avenue, providing access to the office (excluded from the proposed
amendment). The applicant is requesting to rezone the property from the Office (0) District to the Commercial (C)
District in order to redevelop the property with a 76,490 square foot self -storage facility. The applicant has submitted
a Future Land Use Map amendment (see case LUP2017-10011) which is being processed concurrently with this
case.
The proposed Commercial (C) District is incompatible with many of the surrounding zoning districts and single family
homes uses that exist in the vicinity of the subject property. The existing office, which was originally developed in
1976, houses many targeted industries (i.e., Financial and Professional Services) including medical offices,
attorneys, mortgage firms, real estate office, accounting offices and other professional businesses. The City is
committed to preserving land and buildings that are needed to attract target industries and accommodate higher -
wage jobs, such as this one. The proposed change is not supported by the City's stated economic development
goals and objectives. The existing use of the property constitutes a higher level of viable economic use.
The proposed Commercial (C) zoning district permits a variety of commercial uses as minimum standard uses,
including retail plazas, restaurants, offices, overnight accommodations, and vehicle sales/display, many of which,
including the proposed self -storage use (a Level II Flexible Development use), are not in character with the
residential neighborhood to the north along Rainbow Drive. While certain permitted uses may be compatible with the
single-family uses in the area, these same uses are also already permitted through the existing Office (0) District.
The Planning and Development Department determined that the proposed Zoning Atlas amendment is inconsistent
with the Clearwater Community Development Code as specified below:
o The proposed amendment is inconsistent with the Comprehensive Plan and the Community Development
Code.
o The proposed amendment is incompatible with the surrounding property and character of the neighborhood.
o The available uses in the Office (0) District are incompatible with the surrounding area.
o The proposed Office (0) District boundaries are inappropriately drawn in regard to location and classification
of streets.
Please refer to the attached staff report for REZ2017-10012 for the complete analysis.
Prior to the Community Development Board meeting, the city received one letter on behalf of the Skycrest Neighbors
in opposition to this proposal. The Community Development Board reviewed this application at its December 19,

To amend the Zoning Atlas designation from Office (0) District to

Rental Houses, LLC
.... 300 South Duncan Avenue, located on the west side of South Duncan
Avenue approximately 280 feet north of Gulf to Bay Boulevard
.... 2.807 -acre portion of a 3.196 -acre property
This case involves 2.807 acres of a 3.196 -acre parcel located on the west side of South Duncan Avenue,
approximately 280 feet north of Gulf to Bay Boulevard (SR 60). The property is owned by Rental Houses,
LLC and is occupied by a three-story, 69,000 square foot office building with ancillary off-street parking.
The overall parcel is a flag lot, where the proposed amendment area has frontage on South Duncan Avenue
(3 10 feet) and Rainbow Drive (396 feet). A narrow portion of the parcel extends to Gulf to Bay Boulevard
(60 feet of frontage), approximately 345 feet west of South Duncan Avenue, providing access to the office
(excluded from the proposed amendment). Maps 1 and 2 show the general location of the property and an
aerial view of the amendment area.
The existing office was constructed in 1976, and is over 88% leased. The building currently houses many
targeted industries (i.e., Financial and Professional Services) including medical offices, attorneys, mortgage
firms, real estate office, accounting offices and other professional businesses. Currently, there is 8,000 square
feet of office space available, and the asking rent is $10 per square foot. A development proposal to demolish
the existing office and replace it with a 76,490 square foot self -storage facility consisting of 700 units spread
across four buildings on the proposed amendment area and an 875 square foot sales office located on the
remainder of the parcel has been submitted for review (continued case FLD2017-09018). The proposed self -
storage use is not allowed within the property's current zoning district. The request is to change the Zoning
Atlas designation of the proposed amendment area from Office (0) to Commercial (C), thereby establishing
a uniform future land use designation across the parcel. A request to amend the future land use category of

REVIEW CRITERIA:
Consistency with the Clearwater Comprehensive Plan and Community Development Code and
Regulations [Sections 4-602.F.11
Recommended Findings of Fact:
The following objectives and policies of the Clearwater Comprehensive Plan are not supportive of the
proposed amendment:
Objective A.2.2 Future Land Use in the City of Clearwater shall be guided by the City's Future Land Use
Map, which shall be consistent with the Countywide Plan for Pinellas County (The Countywide Plan)
including the Countywide Plan Map, and shall be implemented through the City's Community Development
Code.
Policy A.5.5.1 Development should be designed to maintain and support the existing or envisioned character
of the neighborhood.
Objective A.6.1 The redevelopment of blighted, substandard, inefficient and/or obsolete areas shall be a high
priority and promoted through the implementation of redevelopment and special area plans, the construction
of catalytic private projects, city investment, and continued emphasis on property maintenance standards.
Policy A.6.1.6 Land use decisions in Clearwater shall support the expansion of economic opportunity, the
creation of jobs and training opportunities as well as the maintenance of existing industries through
establishment of enterprise zones, activity centers and redevelopment areas and by coordination with the
Chamber of Commerce, Tourist Development Council and other economic development organizations and
agencies.
Policy A.6.2.2 Encourage land use conversions on economically underutilized parcels and corridors, and
promote redevelopment activities in these areas.
Applicable sections of the Community Development Code which are not supportive of the proposed
amendment:
Division 10. Office District, Section 2-1101. Intent and Purpose. The intent and purpose of the Office "O"
District is to provide the citizens of the City of Clearwater with convenient access to professional services
and high quality jobs throughout the city without adversely impacting the integrity of residential
neighborhoods, diminishing the scenic quality of the City of Clearwater or negatively impacting the safe and
efficient movement of people and things within the City of Clearwater.
Division 7. Commercial District, Section 2-701. Intent and Purpose. The intent and purpose of the
Commercial District is to provide the citizens of the City of Clearwater with convenient access to goods and
services throughout the city without adversely impacting the integrity of residential neighborhoods,
diminishing the scenic quality of the city or negatively impacting the safe and efficient movement of people
and things within the City of Clearwater.
As stated in the introduction to the City's Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Element, the Goals,
Objectives and Policies provide for sustainable redevelopment and infill development, as well as
neighborhood preservation, and are "... designed to preserve and enhance community character and quality
Community Development Board — December 19, 2017

of life, while ensuring continued economic vitality of the community." The Future Land Use Map depicts
spatially where certain types of development are envisioned to occur. While the Community Development
Code provides a path for individual property owners to request amendments to the Future Land Use Map,
review of such requests must consider the achievement of the City's Goals on balance.
In 2011, the City's Economic Development and Housing Department engaged TIP Strategies, Inc. to develop
an Economic Development Strategic Plan to position Clearwater for future sustainable growth and economic
prosperity. The Strategic Plan seeks to ensure long-term economic vitality through the guiding principles of
tax base diversification, higher paying jobs, and business vitality. The City is committed to preserving land
for targeted industries, and encourages the development of sites and buildings needed to accommodate
higher intensity employment opportunities, consistent with the goals of the Economic Development Strategic
Plan. Attracting target industries and higher wage jobs guide future economic development programs and
activities in Clearwater. To attract target industries and accommodate higher -wage jobs, the City should
more fully leverage existing sites for redevelopment.
This site is considered a strategic location for office uses, given its proximity to the Downtown and SR 60.
The subject property is designated Office (0), consistent with its current use as a multi -tenant office, and
consistent with the properties to the west, on the south side of Rainbow Drive. The City's Community
Development Code establishes that the Office (0) District is the primary district in which high quality jobs
and employment opportunities will be located, whereas the proposed Commercial (C) District is primarily
focused on providing convenient access to goods and services, such as the retail uses and restaurants
typically found within the Commercial (C) District. The Office (0) District is the appropriate zoning district
for this property.
The existing office is currently 88% leased, and many of the existing tenants are within targeted industries.
According to the City's Economic Development and Housing Department, the site is well-suited for
continued office use, consistent with the City's Economic Development Strategic Plan. Much of
redevelopment is facilitated by removal of economically underutilized properties; however, the subject
property is not economically underutilized, and the proposed use for the site as a self -storage use is the
opposite of an office use. The existing office is a viable use, is not blighted or obsolete. Amending the
zoning designation on the proposed amendment area would be inconsistent with Policy A.6.1.6 as it would
permit redevelopment that does not expand economic opportunities or create jobs. Self -storage facilities of
this size often have fewer than five employees, including part time employees. Such an amendment is also
inconsistent with Policy A.6.2.2 as the site is not economically underutilized.
The requested change to the Commercial (C) District requires an amendment to the Future Land Use Map as
well to remain consistent. However, the current mix of future land use categories is sufficient in this area to
support the envisioned character of the properties along Rainbow Drive and South Duncan Avenue, the
primary frontages on which the subject site is located. The Residential/Office General (R/OG) future land
use category that is found on the south side of Rainbow Drive, west of South Duncan Avenue, is- consistent
with both Office (0) District and Medium Density Residential (MDR) District, both of which permit uses
that are in character with the single family residential neighborhood to the north of the property. Staff
recognizes that that over time, uses may change, but the uses allowed through either of the consistent zoning
districts are appropriate and in character with the surrounding residential development.

South Duncan Avenue forms the line of demarcation between the area envisioned to remain Office (0)
District to the west, and the area already designated as Commercial (C) District to the east. Within the area
designated Commercial (C) District, there are many underutilized properties, including vacant parcels and
closed businesses in one-story buildings, that are envisioned to transition over time, consistent with the
zoning designation in place. Commercial (C) District is generally designated the length of Gulf to Bay
Boulevard, and in most areas, is only applied to parcels with frontage on Gulf to Bay Boulevard and those
abutting, or generally within the first 280 feet from the right-of-way. There are limited other areas, including
the three blocks east of the proposed amendment area, where the entire block north to Rainbow Drive is all
Commercial (C) District. However, these areas are more typically limited to the intersections of two arterials
where there are larger parcels and the Commercial (C) District extends further north and south of Gulf to
Bay.
Recommended Conclusions of Law:
The request is inconsistent with the goals, objectives and policies of the Clearwater Comprehensive Plan and
conflicts with said plan and the Community Development Code as indicated above. The proposed change
does not support the City's stated economic development goals and objectives.
Compatibility with Surrounding Property/Character of the City & Neighborhood [Section 4-602.F.2,
4-602.F.3 and Section 4-602.F.41
Recommended Findings of Fact:
Existing surrounding uses consist primarily of single family residential (detached dwellings) (north) and
offices and medical clinics (west and south). There is an assortment of offices and residential (attached
dwellings) to the east, across South Duncan Avenue, and a gas station (south). The proposed use of the
subject property is self -storage.
The proposed Commercial (C) zoning district is inconsistent with many of the surrounding zoning districts
that exist in the vicinity of the subject property. The Commercial (C) zoning district -permits a variety of
commercial uses as minimum standard uses, including retail plazas, restaurants, offices, overnight
accommodations, and vehicle sales/display. The proposed District does not appear to be appropriately
located. While certain permitted uses may be compatible with the single-family uses in the area, these same
uses are also already permitted through the existing Office (0) District. The request is not compatible with
the surrounding area and may unreasonably affect the use of the properties in the area.
Recommended Conclusions of Law:
The proposed Commercial (C) zoning district is not in character with the zoning districts in the area. Further,
the proposal is incompatible with surrounding uses and inconsistent with the character of the surrounding
properties and neighborhood.
Sufficiency of Public Facilities [Section 4-602.F.51
Recommended Findings of Fact: --
To assess the sufficiency of public facilities needed to support potential development on the proposed
amendment area, the maximum development potential of the property under the present and requested City
Community Development Board — December 19, 2017

PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT
Level Inning Alias Anumdmant Review LONG RANGE PLANNING DIVISION
Future Land Use Map designations were analyzed (see Table 1). Even though this is a Zoning Atlas
amendment application, maximum development potential is based on the underlying future land use, so for
purposes of this analysis sufficiency of public facilities is based on the future land use map designation.
Table 1. Development Potential for Existing & Proposed FL UM Designations
As shown in the table, there is an increase in development potential across the amendment area which would
increase demand on most public facilities, but would not degrade them below acceptable levels as detailed
below. The following analysis compares the maximum potential development of the proposed Commercial
General (CG) future land use developed with a self -storage use (67,249 square feet) to the maximum
development potential of the existing Residential/Office General (R/OG) future land use category developed
with an office use (61,136 square feet).
Potable Water
The increase in development potential from this amendment would result in an increase in potable water use
of 612 gallons per day. This is determined by comparing the potential potable water utilization of the
maximum square footage allowed by the proposed land use developed with a nonresidential use (6,725
gallons per day) to the potential utilization of a nonresidential use built out to the maximum square footage
allowed by the current land use designation (6,113 gallons per day).
Wastewater
The increase in development potential from this amendment would also result in an increase in wastewater
production of 489 gallons per day. This is determined by comparing the potential wastewater generation of
the proposed land use developed with a nonresidential use (5,379 gallons) to the potential wastewater
generation of the current land use designation developed with a nonresidential use (4,890 gallons).

Level M Zoning Alias Amendment Review LONG RANGE PLANNING DMSION
Solid Waste
The proposed amendment could result in an increase of 70.3 tons per year of solid waste generated when
comparing the amount of waste generated by a warehouse use to that of an office use. All solid waste
disposal is handled by Pinellas County at the Pinellas County Waste -to -Energy Plant and the Bridgeway
Acres Sanitary Landfill which has significant capacity. Additionally, the City provides a full-service
citywide recycling program which diverts waste from the landfill, helping to extend the lifespan of
Bridgeway Acres. There is excess solid waste capacity to serve the amendment area.
Parkland
The City's adopted LOS for parkland acreage, which is 4 acres per 1,000 population, will not be impacted by
this proposed amendment. Under both the existing and proposed land use, the LOS citywide will remain at
15.46 acres per 1,000 population.
Stormwater
Site plan approval will be required before the property can be redeveloped. At that time, the stormwater
management system for the site will be required to meet all City and SWFWMD stormwater management
criteria.
Streets
The subject property is located at the southwest side corner of South Duncan Avenue and Rainbow Avenue,
approximately 280 feet north of Gulf to Bay Boulevard. To evaluate potential impacts to streets, the typical
traffic impacts figure (trips per day per acre) in the Countywide Rules for the corresponding Countywide
Plan Map categories (current and proposed) are compared. The current number of trips per day (250 trips) is
calculated based on the typical traffic generation numbers for the Office (0) category (89 trips per day per
acre). The proposed Countywide Plan Map category of Retail & Service (R&S) (433 trips per day per acre)
would increase the number of trips per day to 1,215 trips per day. This is an increase of 965 trips per day
compared to the number of trips under the current designation. The proposed self -storage use, if constructed,
would generate fewer trips overall; however, evaluations of potential impacts are based on the maximum
impacts possible through the proposed future land use changes.
Recommended Conclusions of Law:
Based upon the findings of fact, it is determined that although the proposed change will result in increased
demand on many public facilities, it will not result in the degradation of the existing levels of service for
potable water, sanitary sewer, solid waste, parkland, stormwater management and streets.

Location of District Boundaries [Section 4-602.F.61
Recommended Findings of Fact:
PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT
LONG RANGE PLANNING DIVISION
Although the proposed location for the Commercial (C) District is consistent with the ownership lines for the
parcel and would consolidate the subject property into a single zoning district, the proposed rezoning would
result in the expansion of the Commercial (C) District across South Duncan Avenue. South Duncan Avenue
is an appropriate street to continue to serve as the line of demarcation between the existing Office (0)
District on the west side of street and the Commercial (C) District on the east side of the street.
Recommended Conclusions of Law:
The District boundaries are appropriately drawn regarding ownership lines, existing improvements and the
natural environment. However, the District boundaries are inappropriately drawn regarding location and
classifications of streets.
SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATION:
No amendment to the Zoning Atlas shall be recommended for approval or receive a final action of approval
unless it complies with the standards contained in Section 4-602.17, Community Development Code. Table 2
below depicts the consistency of the proposed amendment with the standards pursuant to Section 4-602.F:

PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT
LONG RANGE PLANNING DIVISION
The proposed use is inconsistent with certain goals and objectives of the Comprehensive Plan. The proposed
use is inconsistent with the City's strategic economic development plan. The property is not economically
underutilized. The existing use of the property constitutes a higher level of viable economic use. The
transition of properties along the Gulf to Bay Boulevard corridor to storage and warehousing does not
constitute a preferred or desirable characteristic of this corridor. Large parcels with limited to no impacts as
the result of constrained or limited employment and little or no traffic or trip generation resulting from lack
of economic activity are not inherently advantageous or compatible with adjoining communities. To the
contrary, such uses and activities lend themselves more appropriately to areas more suitable for limited
commercial, employment, and transportation constraints.
Based on the foregoing, the Planning and Development Department recommends the following action:
Recommend DENIAL of the Zoning Atlas amendment from Office (0) District to Commercial (C) District.

1. Legal Description: Confirm the legal description listed on Page 1 of the application is only for
that portion of the parcel requested to be amended (application states 2.811 acres)
2. Property Designations: Because only a portion of the site proposed to be amended, "present"
designations on Page 2 of the application should only list the designation on that portion or the
parcel. The present and requested Countywide Plan Map category is not listed. 2.811 acres site
area is 122,447 SF, which differs from what is listed on the application — confirm all calculations
and acreage match. Current allowable density/intensity should not include the additional
development potential from the requested TDR; please include GSF both with and without the
proposed TDR under proposed.
3. Response to review standard 1 regarding consistency with the City's Comprehensive Plan does
not reference any goals, objectives or policies of the Plan. Response to review standard 3 does not
address the uses on South Duncan Avenue or Rainbow Drive, on which the proposed amendment
area is located.

Interested parties may appear and be heard at the hearing or file written notice of approval or objection with the Planning
and Development Director or City Clerk prior to the hearing. Any person who decides to appeal any decision made by the
Board or Council, with respect to any matter considered at such hearings, will need to request a record of the proceedings
and, for such purpose, may need to ensure that a verbatim record of the proceedings is made, which record includes the
testimony and evidence upon which the appeal is to be based per Florida Statute 286.0105. Community Development
Code Sec 4-206 states that party status shall be granted by the Board in quasi-judicial cases if the person requesting such
status demonstrates that s/he is substantially affected. Party status entitles parties to personally testify, present evidence,
argument and witnesses, cross-examine witnesses, appeal the decision and speak on reconsideration requests, and needs
to be requested and obtained during the case discussion before the CDB.
An oath will be administered swearing in all persons giving testimony in quasi-judicial public hearing cases. If you wish to
speak at the meeting, please wait to be recognized, then state and spell your name and provide your address. Persons
without party status speaking before the CDB shall be limited to three minutes unless an individual is representing a group
in which case the Chairperson may authorize a reasonable amount of time up to 10 minutes. The Community
Development Board will review the case and make a recommendation to the City Council for final disposition.
Five days prior to the CDB meeting, staff reports and recommendations on the above requests will be available for review
by interested parties between the hours of 8:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m., weekdays, at the City of Clearwater, Planning and
Development Department, 100 S. Myrtle Ave., Clearwater, FL 33756. Please contact the Planning Department 562-4567
