Growth Management Director, Will Allen addressed the board to give an overview
of the requested 14.84 acre perimeter plat which is to the south of Griffin Rd.
(south of NW 10th Street), west of the F.E.C. R.R. and west of U.S. 1. The
location map was displayed for the board and the property was described as
having a zoning of C-3. The surrounding properties were described as IRO and
RD-6000. Mr. Allen explained that this property was previously the Trail's End
Trailer Park property and that all of the trailers have been auctioned off and are
presently being removed. A perimeter plat is requested to save the trips that
have been associated with the property from the mobile home park. Currently
there are 201 mobile homes, a duplex and 3 garden apts. on the site. The
proposed use on parcel "A" is for a 16,450 sq. ft. rental car facility and parcel "B"
would be used as open space, driveway and buffering (landscaping). Mr. Allen
explained that a rental car agency is a special exception use in the C-4 zoning
district, so zoning, special exception and site plan petitions would be reviewed at a
later date. Variances could also be reviewed if necessary. The access point on
NW 10 Street was displayed. The plat shows access of 100 feet on NW 10 Street
with a 60' opening on the corner of NW 10th Street to allow for an additional
access off Griffin Rd. for the property to the west. The petitioner would have to
pay for any excess trips required for a rental car agency. Mr. Allen concluded his
summation stating that staff recommends approval of this perimeter plat as it
conforms to the platting requirements, the City's code and State Statute. It is also
recommended that the right-of-way, that would be granted through the property
and serve as the driveway for the proposed rental car agency, serve as the
access to the adjoining property which currently has limited access. Leigh Kerr,
Planning Consultant representing the property owners to the south, addressed the

board with concerns of access to their property. For the record, a letter from
Leigh Kerr and Associates dated March 9, 1995 was submitted in regards to Trails
End FLL Airport Plat 5 and Airport 10 access. Mr. Kerr stated the concerns his
client has in obtaining access to their site. Hearing no one and seeing no one
further Chairman lacino closed the public hearing. At this time the petition was
brought back to the board for discussion. Linda Strutt from Williams, Hattfield
and Stoner addressed the board to answer any questions the board might have.
Ms. Strutt explained that they were shooting for sometime in June of 1995, for a
final approval and then 18 months to record. Motion made by Robert Harris to
recommend approval of PL-02-95, seconded by Tim Mc Leod. Motion passed on
the following roll call:
Tim Mc Leod - yes Robert Harris - yes
Cliff lacino - yes
Mr. Allen displayed for the board a prepared sketch of the proposed project and
briefly discussed the concept. Barbara Monahan, representing Broward County
Attorney's Office, addressed the board and stated that the mobile homes on the
Trail's End site had been auctioned off and should be removed, and the property
cleaned up by March 30, 1995. Linda Strutt stated that as soon as the plat can be
approved and recorded, this property will return to the tax rolls.
2. LU-03-95 - Request by Berry and Calvin, Inc. on behalf on VSTNMIF Oakridge
Partnership to change the future land use designation for the Banyan Oakridge
Commercial Plat at the Southwest corner of Griffin Road and SW 31 Avenue. The

The City Of Dania, Broward County, Florida.
Will Allen described this proposal as a request for a Land Use Amendment to
change the designation of 24.1655 acres at Griffin and SW 31 Avenue. The
present zoning for the entire 29+ acres was described as B-3 (which is
commercial) and has a land use of commercial. The request is to change the land
use designation for 24 acres of the property from commercial to residential
(medium 16 units per acre). This property had a previous land use change for the
entire property (29+ acres) to commercial and was platted for a 300,000 sq. ft.
shopping center. Five (5) of the acres in the north corner will remain commercial
to stay consistent with the zoning along Griffin Rd. The surrounding properties
were described as a golf course, which no longer exists, and a small strip center;
Key North is directly to the south which has a land use of medium 16 and which
zoning allows approximately 15 units per acre (R-3). The process for adoption of
a land use amendment was discussed and it was stated that this is the
"Transmittal" stage. A public hearing is held by the City Commission which
recommends approval of the transmittal and of the land use change. The
proposed land use is then transmitted to the State of Florida, Department of
Community Affairs, the Regional Planning Council, etc., comments are made in
relation to feasibility and is then reviewed by staff and brought back to the City
Commission for adoption.
Staff Recommends transmittal with a recommendation to approve the amendment.
The recommendation is based on the proposed use being compatible with
surrounding uses. This change will not have a negative impact on the site or
neighborhood. It is consistent with the comprehensive plan goals, objectives and
policies. Medium 16 units per acre is consistent with the Key North development
to the south.
Robert Harris questioned the previous density of the property prior to the first land
use change. Mr. Allen responded stating the previous land use was Multi-family
10 and commercial recreation. Information was relayed in reference to the plan
meeting concurrency requirements, having adequate levels of service provided
and generating significantly less traffic than was previously approved (13,000 trips
less per day). As a residential development, land would have to be provided for
parks or an impact fee would be collected to provide such land. The demand for

solid waste will decrease significantly. Water and Sewer usage will increase, but
there is capacity to serve these needs through Broward County Utilities.
Discussion about the future use of the property was made and Chairman lacino
called the public hearing to order. Attorney Edward Stacker addressed the board
for the petitioner. Mr. Stacker addressed concerns of past and future land use by
the board, and future plans for the site. Dan Smith, project manager representing
the owners addressed the board relaying the need to change the land use due to
the negative response received in obtaining lessors for the property. He also
discussed the future residential, as well as the piece of remaining commercial,
plans of the site. Hearing and seeing no one further Chairman lacino closed the
public hearing. Motion was made by Tim Mc Leod to recommend approval of the
proposed transmittal of the land use change, seconded by Robert Harris. Motion
passed on the following roll call:
Tim Mc Leod - yes Robert Harris - yes
Cliff lacino - yes
Chairman lacino announced to the board that after 6 years, the last 2 being Chairman,
his intention to retire from the Planning and Zoning board. Chairman lacino expressed
his enjoyment on serving. Immediately following adjournment, pictures were taken.
Motion made by Tim Mc Leod, seconded by Robert Harris to adjourn. Motion passed
