The property has a FLU of SF wi a portion Zoned Hand anoer Industrial (IND). The recommendation is to change e FLU to Industrial and rezone e Holding portion to IND. The Board discussed e issue of making sure eir recommendations were consistent and how is property is different an map identification No.7. There were several zoning districts at would have been beneficial to at parcel. The Planning Staff recommended RSF-1, which will cause e ex lsting use to be non-conforming. However, e use is not accurately known, as it was eir extended drive ru service, en later e teller boos were demolished. It appears to only be used as an overflow parking lot. In is instance, Planning Staff is recommending to change bo e FLU and Zoning for several reasons. One, e surrounding and existing industrial uses around and on e property. Second, e proximity to e railroad. While ere are some residential homes in e area, RSF-1 would not be a practical recommended zoning district The consensus of e Board was to uphold e Planner's recommendation. No. 12 c., is a 0.99 acre parcel located between CSX Railroad and NE 9 Street, West oft aylor Creek and East of Block 51. The property has a FLU of SF and a Zoning of H. The recommendation is to change bo e FLU and Zoning to Industrial. The parcel is not suitable for any oer zoning due to it's proximity to e railroad and adjacent existing Industrial uses. Board consensus was in agreement wi e Planner's recommendation. No. 13 a., is acres located at 1200 NE 12 Drive, and is e Ground Water Treatment Plant for Okeechobee Utility Auority {OUA). The FLU is Industrial and has a Zoning of H. The recommendation is to eier rezone to IND to be consistent wi e FLU map or change e FLU to Public Facilities (PF) and rezone to Public Facilities (PUB) as suggested by e OUA. Consensus of e Board was to change e FLU to PF and rezone to PUB since e property is owned and operated by a governing agency and has protected well heads.
