Summary

Agent: Ricardo J. Palacios

Property Owner: Ricardo J. Palacios and Francis M. Burgado Santiago

Parcel Number: 28-18-24-0500-00B-02300

LOCATION

On Thursday, February 21, 2019, an application was filed with the Town of Lady Lake by Ricardo J. Palacios to amend the future land use designation of a parcel located along Skyline Drive, encompassing lots 23 and 24 of Block B of the Skyline Hills Subdivision, just behind the existing Microtel Site and across from the Ehlers Office Complex.

The small-scale request is to amend the parcel from Lady Lake Commercial General-Retail Sales and Services (RET) to Lady Lake Manufactured Home-High Density (MH-HD).

EXISTING AND PROPOSED FLU FOR THE SITE

EXISTING FUTURE LAND USE DEFINITION:

Commercial General - Retail Sales and Services (RET) Future Land Use Category.

This land use category is limited to retail sales and services which is an establishment engaged in the selling of products and services to the public for personal or household consumption, including but not limited to beauty or barber shop, laundry and dry cleaning store, newsstand or bookstore, clothing stores, drug stores, home electronic equipment, food or grocery stores, hotel or motel, religious uses, professional services and supporting goods. The intensity standard for this land use category is limited to a maximum of 80 percent impervious surface ratio per parcel (which includes building coverage) and a maximum building height of 35 feet unless fire protection is adequately provided. The floor area ratio (FAR) shall be limited to a maximum of 0.50 for the Commercial General category.

PROPOSED FUTURE LAND USE DEFINITION:

Manufactured Home-High Density (MH-HD).

Development within the Manufactured Home, High Density land use category shall be limited to manufactured homes.  Densities cannot exceed nine units per acre. Single family, multi-family, commercial and industrial uses are prohibited. However, a mixed-use PUD shall be allowed as outline in Policy FLU 1-10.2. Public facilities shall be allowed as outlined in Policy FLU 1-2.3 and OBJECTIVE FLU 1-8.

EXISTING CONDITIONS

The site consists of a .46-acre parcel that is entirely undeveloped. The property is vacant and exhibits existing mature trees toward the south half of the property. The primary reason for the application is to be able to re-establish the zoning classification back to MH-9 for the placement of a manufactured home consistent in zoning and future land use with adjacent parcels to the west.

The general vicinity currently exhibits residential lots to the west and commercial parcels to the north and east. The Manufactured Home High Density (MH-9) zoning designation will assure consistency and compatibility with on-site and adjacent land uses and the Town’s Land Development Regulations by addressing design and development.

ADJACENT PROPERTY CHARACTERISTICS

To the west: Developed residential property with manufactured homes and a Future Land Use of Lady Lake Manufactured Home High Density (MH-HD).

To the east: Developed commercial property with a Future Land Use of Lady Lake Commercial General Retail Sales and Services (RET).

To the north: Developed commercial parcels consisting of the Ehlers Office Complex across the street and the Microtel site; both of which have a Future land Use of Commercial General – Retail Sales and Services (RET).

To the south: Single family residence with a Future Land Use of Lady Lake Professional Services.

IMPACT ON TOWN SERVICES

In evaluating land use impacts, the maximum theoretical impact that could result through passage of the amendment is in direct relation with the installation of one single-family dwelling unit.

The .46-acre parcel is presently zoned Heavy Commercial (HC) in the Town, which permits development at maximum of 12 dwelling units per net buildable acre or commercial uses at an intensity of .50 FAR. The applicant is requesting to change the current Lady Lake Heavy Commercial to Lady Lake Manufactured Homes High Density.

POTABLE WATER:

The Town of Lady Lake has water physically available at the site to provide the property Potable Water services.

SEWER:

The Town of Lady Lake has Sewer physically available at the site; however, connection to Waste Water Sewer Facilities would require the installation of a pump station. In that the proposed consumption for one single-family residence is di minimus, Town staff would be in favor of waiver to connection to Waste Water Sewer Facilities. A septic tank system would be needed for waste disposal.

REUSE:

The Town of Lady Lake Waste Water Sewer Facilities does not currently service the property with Reuse/Reclaim Facilities. There is no additional need for such facilities at this time.

TRANSPORTATION:

The local roadways that will be affected by this project is Skyline Drive, a Town-maintained road. However, it is expected that the proposed amendment result is a very low impact to the local road system as opposed to developing the land for commercial uses.

COMPARISON OF TRAFFIC GENERATION BASED ON LAND USE (ITE 10th Edition)

General Retail 820 4.2 Trips per Peak Hour per 1,000 sq. ft. 38 PM 44 56

STORMWATER:

Any new development project will be required to adhere to SJRWMD guidelines as applicable. As per FEMA FIRM MAP 12069C0170E effective December 18, 2012, the parcel is within the Flood Zone X- Outside the 500-yr Floodplain.

A building permit will be required for the installation of a manufactured home on premises if the application is approved.

The small-scale future land use map amendment application was received on Thursday, February 21, 2019, and has been reviewed and determined to be complete, satisfying the necessary criteria as required for annexation under statutory requirements.

Notices to inform the 12 surrounding property owners within 150 feet of the property proposed by the small-scale request were mailed on Monday, February 25, 2019. The property was also posted on Monday, February 25, 2019.
