ANALYSIS
HISTORY
Page 555 of 868
On March 13, 2019, at the request of Commissioner Ricky Arriola, the City Commission referred the
discussion item to the Land Use and Development Committee (Item C4Y). On April 3, 2019, the
Land Use Committee discussed the item and recommended that the City Commission refer the
attached ordinance to the Planning Board. On April 10, 2019, at the City Commission referred the
attached ordinance to the Planning Board (Item C4 AA).
PLANNING ANALYSIS
The attached draft ordinance has been proposed by a property owner within the Collins Park area, and includes
strategic reductions in off- street parking requirements, as well as a reduction in the minimum hotel unit sizes, for
properties located within the Convention Center District, bounded by the Atlantic Ocean on the east, Washington
Avenue on the west, 23rd Street on the north and 17th Street on the south. Specifically, the proposal would reduce the
minimum unit size for hotel units to a minimum of 200 square feet. Currently, the minimum unit size for hotel units is
between 300 and 335 square feet. Additionally, the proposed ordinance creates parking district no. 9, and sets forth
the following minimum off-street parking requirements for this district, as follows:
1. Hotel units: No parking requirement.
2. Restaurant, outdoor cafe or bar: No parking requirement for an individual establishment of less than 100
seats, provided that the restaurant, outdoor cafe, or bar use is vvthin 1,200 feet of any parking garage, vthether
public or private. If a restaurant, outdoor cafe or bar exceeds 100 seats, the parking requirement shall be one
space for every four seats or bar stools or one space per 60 square feet of space not used for seating in
excess of the foregoing limitation.
3. Retail store, or food store, or personal service establishment: There shall be no parking requirement for
individual establishments of 2,500 square feet or less, vihether as a primary or accessory use, provided that
the use is vuthin 1,200 feet of any parking garage, vthether public or private. If the use exceeds 2,500 square
feet, the parking requirement shall be one space for every 300 square feet of floor area in excess of the
foregoing limitation.
4. Any building or structure erected in parking district no. 9 may provide required parking on site as specified
in parking district no. 1. Such required parking, if provided, shall be exempt from FAR, in accordance vuth the
regulations specified in chapter 114 of these land development regulations.
The administration is supportive of the proposed reduction in the minimum unit size for hotels, particularly since the
district contains a number of historic structures, and is within walking distance of the recently renovated convention
center. With regard to the proposed parking regulations, the administration is supportive of the creation of parking
district no. 9, as well as the proposed minimum parking requirements in the draft ordinance.
In order to provide a more streamlined review process, and allow for regulations that can be applied and
administered more effectively, at the April 3, 2019 LUDC meeting, the administration proposed the following
modifications for the parking requirements in district 9:
• Restaurant, outdoor cafe or bar: No parking requirement for an individual establishment of Tess
than 499 200 seats, provided that the restaurant, outdoor cafe, or bar use is within 1,200 feet of any
parking garage, whether public or private. If a restaurant, outdoor cafe or bar exceeds 400 200
seats, the parking requirement shall be one space for every four seats or bar stools or one space per
60 square feet of space not used for seating in excess of the foregoing limitation. Such parking may
be satisfied by paying an annual fee in lieu of providing the required parking in an amount equal to
two percent of the total amount due for all the uses within the proposed building.
Page 556 of 868
• Retail store, or food store, or personal service establishment: There shall be no parking
requirement for individual establishments of 278499 5,000 square feet or Tess, whether as a primary or
accessory use, provided that the use is within 1,200 feet of any parking garage, whether public or
private. If the use exceeds 27500 5,000, square feet, the parking requirement shall be one space for
every 300 square feet of floor area in excess of the foregoing limitation. Such parking may be
satisfied by paying an annual fee in lieu of providing the required parking in an amount equal to two
percent of the total amount due for all the uses within the proposed building.
The LUDC was supportive of these proposed modifications recommended by staff, and they have been
incorporated into the draft ordinance.
As noted in the attached parking utilization report, the demand for parking within the existing area has trended
downward. Additionally, the completion of the Collins Park Garage on 23rd Street will provide additional off- street
parking. As any new construction utilizing the reductions herein is not expected to become operational until, or after
the completion of the Collins Park garage, the administration does not anticipate any negative impacts associated
with the reduced parking requirements proposed.
PLANNING BOARD REVIEW
On April 30, 2019, the Planning Board held a public hearing and transmitted the ordinance to the City
Commission with a favorable recommendation by a vote of 5 -0. The Planning Board evaluated the
different parking exemptions proposed for retail and personal service establishments, based upon the
sizes of 2,500, 3,500 and 5,000 square feet. The Board recommends 5,000 square feet, as it allows
for maximum flexibility for the uses proposed.
UPDATE
The subject ordinance was approved at first reading on May 8, 2019, with no changes.
CONCLUSION
The administration recommends that the City Commission aadopt the subject ordinance.
