FROM: Laurence Leeds, AICP, Director
Growth Management
RE: SP-65-99: Request to Amend Site Plan Approval Conditions for
Tanger Shopping Center (200 Gulfstream Way — west of CSX Rail
Line)
DATE: July 25, 2000 City Commission Meeting
On December '14, 1999, the City Commission approved the site plan for the Tanger
shopping center subject to several conditions contained in Resolution No. 252-99,
attached.
• The applicant has submitted a building permit application, but has yet to address the
December, 1999, approval conditions. Applicant has been notified on at least two
occasions that approval conditions must be addressed prior to issuance of a building
permit (see attached letter).
Condition (b): The approved landscape plan shows Foxtail Palms (in clusters of
three to five) along the north face of the building: On the opposite side of the access
driveway, located in parking lot landscape islands, are Crape Myrtle trees.
Condition (b) appears to require the middle tree of each Foxtail cluster to be replaced
with a Royal Palm. Staff was not present at this City Commission meeting to verify if
this is the case.
The revised site plan shows some Foxtail .clusters (3 or 5 trees) with a Royal Palm as
the middle palm tree. Other clusters have been replaced entirely by a "stand alone"
Royal Palm. On the opposite side of the access driveway, most of the Crape Myrtle
trees have been replaced with Royal Palm's on a "one-to-one" basis. The applicant has
requested this arrangement in her substitution language for Condition (b), attached.
Condition(c): Condition (c) indicates the "stone treatment" provided on the front
wall (north face) of the shopping center should be continued around the side and then
along the rear wall (south face) of the shopping center.
•
TANGER SITE PLAN AMEND072500.doc
• Applicant says the Commission had requested the stone treatment to extend only
around the side of the building not the rear. Staff was not present at this City
Commission meeting to verify if this is the case. Applicant has submitted (attached)
new Condition (c) language indicating that the "stonework will not be required along the
rear of the building."
On the original landscape plan, dumpsters were shown at the rear of the building. On
the revised plan, the dumpsters have been replaced with trash compactors, which are
larger and take up more space. The landscaping has been modified accordingly around
the trash compactors. The revised building elevations show no stonework or other
treatment on the rear of the building.
RECOMMENDATION
Condition (b): Staff recommends that that the landscaping directly adjacent to the
building show the three and five cluster tree clusters, with the middle tree to be a Royal
Palm, and the remaining trees to be Foxtail Palms. All other aspects of the revised
landscape plan are acceptable.
Condition (c): Staff recommends approval of the revised landscape/compactor
arrangement, subject to providing some sort of architectural or painted wall treatment on
the rear of the building.
• PLEASE NOTE: The Growth Management Department has incurred costs in the
processing, review, and analysis of this site plan amendment. The City is expected to
incur additional costs in reviewing "permit drawings" to assure compliance with
Resolution No. 252-99. As such, staff requests that the applicant to set up a $2000.00
cost recovery account within 10 days of approval. All unused funds shall be refunded to
the applicant.

RE: Dania Beach (Fort Lauderdale) Tanger Store
Dear Mr. Dillon:
On April 4, 2000, City staff indicated on the Plan Review Checklist that no site plan or
landscaping plans had been submitted with the construction drawings. Three sets of
site plans, excluding landscaping, were submitted on May 24.
• Chuck Griffin contacted me on approximately three weeks ago to inquire about the
status of the plan. I confirmed that I had not yet received the landscape plan, and as
such, was unable to confirm compliance with most of the site plan approval conditions
(see attached resolution). These items were noted on June 16, 2000, on the second
City Plan Review Checklist.
It is now July 5. 2000 and we still do not have a landscape plan. We also do not have
evidence of compliance with those approval conditions "unrelated" to the site plan.
Failure to provide required zoning information will delay approval of your foundation
permit. As such, we urge you to act now so that we may expedite zoning review.
Please note that you will be charged a cost recovery fee based on the cost of zoning
plan review by our planning consultant. This fee is due prior to issuance of any building
permits.
Please contact me directly if you have any questions.
Sincerely,
CGS

Dear Leigh:
Attached is a copy of the revised site plan addressing the comments issued by Molly
Hughes of Hughes Hail Inc. A good number of her.continents were satisfied since her
initial review (plans submitted in October). Others have been addressed for the.first
time on the attached plans. A copy of this response and the revised plan is being hand
delivered to Hughes Hall Inc.
The following is our response, paragraph by paragraph, to the comments issued in the
December 3, 1999 Hughes Hall Inca letter:
There is no demonsrrarion as to how rking requirements have been mei. The revised
site plan contains a parinns requlred/provided.table. Please note on sheet SPI that the
future development parcel's parking is based on 50.000 square feet of building, when in
reality the site will contain closes to 20,000 square feet.

have added annotation to the plan that identifies the breezeway between the Tanger
buildings and the.pedestrian walkway in front of all the Tanger shops. Pedestrian ramps
have also been annotated. Traffic signage has also been added to the plan where
appropriate.

RE: Tanger Factory Outlet Center
HHI Project No. 99023.06
Dear Lou Ann:
® We have completed review of the site plan (dated 11-12-99) and Traffic Operations Analysis
(dated 11-27-99) for the Tanger Factory Outlet Center. Our review was concerned with the internal
traffic operations of the site as well as the potential offsite access-related impacts of this proposed
project. The first concerns addressed deal with the potential for onsite or internal problems.
There is no demonstration as to how parking requirements have been met. The City has a
standard of one space for every 250 square feet of retail space provided. The question is, how within
the overall site has this standard been met while providing for the needs of the remaining uses.
A very significant concern deals with the lack of provision for pedestrian traffic within the site.
We are concerned with how people will travel from parking areas to the shops, as well as from the one
area of shops to another. The plans should better define pedestrian and handicapped routes
throughout the site. This is particularly troublesome when considering the automobile drive-through
which separates one end of the center from the other. Thousands of pedestrians crossing the three
lane drive-through could prove to be dangerous.
It is incumbent upon the applicant to analyze the volume of pedestrians and vehicles crossing
this point in order to better define the magnitude of the problem. The results of this analysis will then
allow for a more definitive approach arriving at definitive solutions.

The travel way between the south side of the buildings and to the north side of the
southernmost parking should be more clearly defined. There is too much undefined pavement area.
It appears that there may be adequate area in which to construct a two-way travelway adjacent to the
building's south side, with room for a raised median to accommodate pedestrians, and then for a two-
way travel aisle within the parking area.
Along the rear of the southernmost buildings there are curbed islands projecting into this
undefined travel way. These islands should be reduced by approximately fifteen feet and the turning
radius enlarged to more gently accommodate vehicular turning movements.
At the southern terminus of the center drive there is a dumpster location which would affect
the safe line of site for traffic headed for the southern most parking spaces. This dumpster should be
more appropriately located.
The truck-only lane mentioned above, which is shown along the western side of the
. westernmost building, needs further consideration if it is to be a truck-only travelway. If travel along
this roadway is to be one-way southbound, signage and pavement markings are needed to indicate that
this road is one-way and for truck traffic only.
Along the eastern end of the outlet center there is an extensive area of undefined paved
travelway. In order to more clearly define travel, the double loaded parking aisle parallel to the
easternmost shops should be closed at its eastern end. An opening further to the west could be
established to replace this access point. In addition, the easternmost parking, which parallels I-95
should be separated from through traffic by a raised median. The traffic flow serving this parking
should be made one-way with traffic flowing south to north. The parking itself could be angled.
There are nine parking spaces shown on the site plan which would require the users of these
spaces, when leaving, to back into the primary travel lanes. There are seven spaces in the beginning
of the fourth row of parking parallel to the easternmost buildings and two handicap spaces in the next
row to the north that represent this condition. These spaces should be eliminated. In addition, the
terminal islands at the western ends of these same two parking aisles have been reconfigured
in a way that give them undesirable tuming radii. They should be reconfigured similar to the
existing islands, which will eliminate two parking spaces.
There are no fire lanes along the front of the buildings. Provision for them should be shown
• on the site plan.

What controls would be put into place that would insure that the access off of Tigertail
Boulevard would be limited to employees and truck traffic only? The site plan contains a notation to
this effect but nothing is shown-'indicating how this condition would be met.
The applicant's consultant has conducted a Traffic Operations Analysis of the impacts of the
proposed development upon surrounding roadways. Particularly, they have analyzed the Griffin
Road/Anglers Avenue intersection and the Anglers Avenue/ Gulfstream Way intersection. The
conclusion reached in their analysis is that "... the only potentially deficient movement that would be
impacted by future traffic is the westbound left-turning movement during the Saturday peak hour."
We concur in this finding as well as the applicants consultant's recommendation that "... re-
examination of system signal timing/phasing for Saturday and Sunday operations be performed in
order to accommodate anticipated increases in westbound left-turning traffic during weekends with the
opening of the new retail facilities." It is recommended that the applicant's consultant proceed with
this analysis in coordination with Broward county and utilizing Transyt-7F Software. This analysis
should include the signalization of the I-95/Griffin Road Interchange as well as the first signal to the
west of Anglers Avenue.
Also, the applicant is planning on utilizing Tigertail Boulevard for employee and
truck traffic
but the consultant did not include this intersection in their analysis. The impacts of the employee and
truck traffic utilizing Tigertail Boulevard should also be analyzed by the applicant's consultant. This
analysis should determine the potential impacts on the intersection with Anglers Avenue as well as to
the project entrance off of Tigertail Boulevard.
Prior to any final approvals of this site plan, all concerned should be satisfied with the way in
which the problems that have been identified are proposed to be addressed.
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me.
