Motion passed 4-0. III. PUBLIC HEARINGS 1. VC-010-21: The applicant, Lawrence Kramer, on behalf of the property owner 800 Old Griffin, LLC is requesting a vacation of right-of-way for the portion of NW 3 Place located between NW 8 Avenue and NW 9 Avenue. Assistant City Attorney Eve Boutsis swore in Assistant Director Community Development Corinne Lajoie, Planning and Zoning Manager Richard Lorber, and Senior Planner Anne -Christine Carrie. Senior Planner Anne -Christine Carrie gave a PowerPoint presentation stating that the property was in the Marine Zoning District (MA) and land use was Regional Activity Center (RAC). The applicant was proposing to vacate approximately 300 linear feet of right-of-way (ROW) on NW 3 Place between NW 8 Avenue and NW 9 Avenue. This request was being made before Site Plan approval for redevelopment of the site. If it was vacated, the owners would then own the full width of the ROW. The Land Development Code (LDC) was where the vacation process was identified and required the applicant to provide evidence of notification to all public and private utilities that may have an interest in the proposed vacated area. The LDC stated that the City Commission could approve, approve with condition, or deny a request to vacate a ROW based on certain criteria. Ms. Carrie went over the criteria and stated that the applicant demonstrated the request was consistent with all the criteria. The vacation application was reviewed by the Development Review Committee (DRC) and that the vacation request required two City Commission public hearings. Tonight, the Planning and Zoning Board was to make a recommendation to the City Commission. She told the Board that the applicant was online to answer any questions. Albert Jones asked about the width of easement and Senior Planner Carrie explained that it was a 9,000 sq. ft. public road and not an easement. This owner would have 9,000 sq. ft. added to its property. She further answered that the utilities were notified that the vacation would come forward and to her knowledge, none of the utilities expressed interest. Chris Burke, applicant, was sworn in by Assistant City Attorney Eve Boutsis, and testified that all the notified utilities came back with no interest in having continuing access to the roadway. There were no current easements on the roadway except for City water and the City would maintain having that easement. Albert Jones also wanted to know the value of the street being vacated and any future vacation value amounts. City Attorney Boutsis explained that in this case, they originally gave us the land. By the vacation, this was being returned to the original property owner. Vice Chair Harris stated that based on the pages in the packet and all the applicant's due diligence, this would be a marine inspired business that would create some type of revitalization on the Old Griffin Road corridor. This was a job creator and a business creator that was consistent with the post- COVID recovery program in the County and in our City. He would like to move the item, if there were no more questions/comments. As no other board members wished to speak and no members of the public had questions/comments or wished to speak, the public hearing closed. Motion was made by Vice Chair Harris to recommend approval of this agenda item (VC-010-21) to the City Commission and was seconded by Derrick Hankerson. Motion passed 4-0. IV. BOARD ITEMS 1.
