SUBJECT: AMENDMENTS TO ZONING ORDINANCE 89-2665,
SUB-SECTION 6-8/TECHNICAL AMENDMENTS III-C -
(INCLUDING OFFICES ON LINCOLN ROAD) SECOND READING
ADMINISTRATIVE RECOMMENDATION
The Administration recommends that the City Commission approve on second reading these
proposed amendments to Zoning Ordinance 89-2665, Subsection 6-8, in light of the
recommendation for approval from the Planning Board and the approval, as amended, by the
Commission on June 3. The Ordinance has been amended to reflect the change proposed by
Commissioner Pearlson relative to retail uses in CD-3 zoned oceanfront properties in the
Architectural District.
BACKGROUND
On September 24 and October 3, 1991, the Planning Board held a public hearing on a package
of amendments to Zoning Ordinance 89-2665, otherwise known as Technical Amendments III.
The Board voted to recommend approval of most of this amendment package, including those
amendments to Sub-Section 6-8 of the Ordinance. Said action was duly transmitted to the
Commission which then scheduled a public hearing on October 9, 1991 to hear the Planning
Board's recommendation. After this first reading, the Commission voted to approve the
amendments to the Ordinance.
At the City Commission's second reading of this matter,held on October 23, 1991,the Technical
Amendments III package was approved; however,the Commission also voted to defer a vote on
the amendments to Sub-Section 6-8 with the stated reason that further consideration and
deliberation was required. It was understood that the amendments to this Sub-Section would
necessarily be reviewed and voted upon by the new incoming Commission.
On February 5, 1992, the new City Commission held a public hearing on the proposed
amendments to Sub-Section 6-8. The Commission voted to defer this item for three months and
referred it back to the Planning Board for reconsideration since the statutory time for approval
from the original date of approval recommendation had elapsed. The Commission also
expressed a desire to hear from the Transition Team Committee on this issue during this
intervening period.The Planning Board held a new public hearing on the proposed amendments
on April 21, 1992 and voted 7-0 to recommend approval to the City Commission.
The City Commission, at its first reading hearing on June 3, 1992, voted to approve (7-0) the
proposed amendments to Subsection 6-8, subject to a change suggested by Commissioner
Pearlson exempting new retail or office areas of less than a total of 250 sq.ft. in Architectural
District oeanfront properties (in the CD-3) from the rehabilitation requirements.

ITEM.
DATE —1 'q 2—
ANALYSIS
The following provides a brief analysis of the proposed amendments:
Under Sub-Section 6-8A.2, the permissibility of oceanfront properties to have retail and/or
office areas has been clarified to read as it was intended as it relates specifically to the
National Register Architectural District;in these instances, the building must be rehabilitated
according to the U.S.Secretary of the Interior Standards for Rehabilitation and Guidelines for
Rehabilitating Historic Structures as well as all other cited codes and standards. Properties
which would be affected by this amendment are those east of Collins Avenue, between 16th
and 21st Streets. With the new language vis-a-vis new retail/office areas totaling less than 250
sq.ft., introduced and adopted by the Commission on first reading, these uses would not trigger
the requirement for the entire building to be rehabilitated. As per other sections of the
Ordinance, retail and office uses outside the National Register Architectural District are
permitted in oceanfront properties without this rehabilitation requirement.
Under the same Sub-section, new language is being recommended which would permit offices
on the ground floor of buildings located on the closed portion of Lincoln Road, as long as they
are back 75 feet from the storefront. This amendment would allow ground floor space which
has long been vacant to be used for offices, without impacting on the retail character of
Lincoln Road itself; retail spaces would still be required for the front 75 feet depth of all
buildings.
Under Sub-Section 6-8A.3. a new reference is provided for conditional uses for proposed new
development restrictions on Lincoln Road requiring compliance with a new Sub-Section 6-8A.5.
This new subsection requires that all apartments,apartment/hotels, hotels and conditional uses
located on that portion of Lincoln Road closed to traffic limit their entrances and lobbies to
only 20% of their total street frontage; the balance of frontage must consist solely of
commercial (retail) uses.
CONCLUSION
These amendments are part of a larger package which was prepared for the City
Administration by the Planning and Zoning Department. As such, they are seen as necessary
to clarify issues, correct errors and refine ordinance language so that it is in keeping with the
evolving development goals and objectives of the City. The Administration concludes,
therefore, that the amendments to the Zoning Ordinance are of benefit to the City and the
approval process should proceed.
