Leeds,AICP, Director Date 06/20/2000 Growth Management Department City Manager Date STAFF REPORT GROWTH MANAGEMENT DEPARTMENT TO: Michael Smith, City Manager FROM: Laurence Leeds, AICP, Director, Grcwth Management Department RE: Site Plan Amendment to Request a Substitution of Landscaping (Property located east of 280 Bryan Road along the south property line of the Ocean Waterway Mobile Park) Date: June 23, 2000 (June 27, 2000 City Commission) Applicant: Broward International Commerce Center The site plan for the Broward International Commerce Center ("BICC") was initially approved with a continuous six foot ficus hedge and shade trees adjacent to the Ocean Waterway Mobile Home Park. The ficus hedge and shade trees were to be located between the Mobile Home Park and Phase II of the BICC. BICC Phase I (north of the FPL transmission wires) has been completed for some time. There are no permits pending for Phase ll. The existing hedge is uneven and of varying heights. The applicant has requested permission to replace the ficus hedge with Areca Palms intended to grow to a height of 5' to 6'. The applicant indicates the Mobile Home Park neighbors have requested this landscape substitution. The City's consulting landscape inspector indicates that the Areca's will provide approximately 70%-80% of the screening provided by the ficus hedge if properly maintained. It will take two or more years for the Areca's to reach six feet in height. The president of Ocean Waterway requests that the Palms be allowed to grow to a height of 10 to 12 feet. Staff is concerned that removal of the ficus hedge will provide less protection from blowing dust and sand. 10 years ago, prior to construction BICC Phase I, substantial amounts of fill were being removed from the adjacent lake. As a result, staff received continuing daily complaints from the Mobile Home Park concerning blowing sand. The fill operations have long since ceased. However, anticipated nearby construction (DCOTA Phase III, DCOTA Phase IV, BICC Phase ll, and Grand Prix) will create some potential for blowing dust and sand, albeit less than the late 80's fill operation. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Based on all of the above, staff does not object to the landscape substitution if the applicant provides a written statement from the Mobile Home Park Association of "support" or "no objection" to the proposed landscaping.

I Soo Old Griffin Road Dania Beach,FL 33004 Dcar Clairc: Recently we have researched options for maltttaMTS and/or"placing the ticus hedges on the north side of our property that border yow mobile home park. We have found that it is nearly impossible for the current hedges to be tut to a height that could be continua*maintained by our lawn servicc. Therefore,we p)an to have them cut do"entirely to ground level,and choose a replacement hedge. At this time we are considering planting 3 gallon Arm Palms(approximately 3 to S feet apart)along the enure property line. They would be planted approximately 4 feet off the fence eo that our lawn service can walk boNnd them. They grow to be very loll,bushy plants at the base and can reach a height of 10 to 12 feet. In time,they wilt create a beautiful hcdgc4ike view. At the bottom of this letter,please let us know what you think about this solution as we would like to proceed ® soots. We VAII then noti&you when the tree cerviee can acbedule the work so that you can inform your home owners that they might need to gain)socess in their baclgrsrds to remve the Pious. Wishing you and sU a very Happy and Safe New Millennium! We look forward to your response. Sincerely, dam;- Christine Kerr Manager We hereby(t4 agree j disagree with the above.

(� IM AY 2 6 2000 Mr. Larry Leads J I� City of Dania Beach 100 West Dania Beach Blvd. Dania Beach, FL 33004 Dear Mr. Leads: Per our conference call today with Jim Danto, as the existing ficus hedge on the north property line of our project was planted on the fence line by the previous owners and has become impossible to maintain, and as our neighbors have requested that we replace the ficus hedge with something nicer, we would like to request the following. Per our site plan (see attached segments), we would like to remove the ficus hedge and replace it with Areca Palms (3 gallon),planted approximately 4' south of the existing fence line at approximately 3' apart. • This was recommended by our lawn maintenance people and our landscapers as a better solution for easy maintenance and a more appealing plant. As the rainy season is approaching, we have been advised to plant them as soon as possible so that by the end of the summer they would have grown to make a solid hedge and reached a height of 5'-6'. In addition, this change would allow the existing live oak trees to grow to their potential height and fullness. We do feel the above is the best solution to this problem, and request your approval to proceed. Sincerely, Christine Kerr Manager cc: Jim Danto, President • , //+r 11 I �O � ♦ �A 11 —..i 1 I o o _. z 1,�J?TM7 o I I �- - • + y 1 o n D I g I � O { 3 1 08 I D AE I ^ * N ' w uJ H y � � ` k � ♦ Y I l i C mrn m I ^ D 1.1, R _ w I I !
