BACKGROUND/HISTORY
Page 477 of 1430
On July 25, 2018, at the request of Commissioner Ricky Arriola, the City Commission referred
a discussion item to the Land Use and Development Committee (LUDC) pertaining to the
proposed designation of the International Inn at 2301 Normandy Drive (item C4K). On
September 28, 2018, the LUDC deferred the item to October 31, 2018; the item was then
deferred to February 20, 2019. At the February 20, 2019 meeting, the item was deferred to the
April 3, 2019 meeting. At the April 3, 2019 meeting, the Committee deferred the discussion to
the May 22, 2019 meeting.At the May 22, 2019 meeting, the item was deferred to the June 12,
2019 meeting.
On June 12, 2019, the LUDC discussed the item and continued it to a date certain of July 24,
2019. Additionally, the LUDC reviewed drafts of a proposed development agreement and City
Code, Comprehensive Plan, and LDR amendments. The LUDC also heard testimony from
representatives of the Police Department regarding public safety issues and related activity at
the Property and calls for service. The LUDC requested that the Owner meet with the Police
Department to address ongoing issues at the Property. Additionally, the LUDC recommended
that the proposed amendments to the LDRs be further studied, particularly as it pertained to
required parking, as well as outdoor entertainment and outdoor bars.
Following a discussion on July 24, 2019, the LUDC recommended that the subject City Code,
Comprehensive Plan, and LDR Amendments be referred to the Planning Board, with the
following modifications:
1. Create a mechanism to permit outdoor ambient entertainment.
2. In lieu of waiving minimum parking requirements increase the maximum distance for off-site
storage of vehicles.
On September 11, 2019, the City Commission considered the proposed Development
Agreement at First Reading (item R7D). After a lengthy discussion and based upon concerns
pertaining to the operation of the existing hotel, the City Commission deferred action on the
Development Agreement for six months.
On May 13, 2020, the owner of the International Inn made a presentation to the City
Commission, including an update on the operational and public safety issues associated with
the existing hotel. Following the presentation,the City Commission directed the administration to
schedule first reading of the proposed Development Agreement on June 24, 2020.
On June 24, 2020, the City Commission approved the Development Agreement at first reading
and referred the proposed ordinances to the Planning Board for review and recommendation
(Item R7 D). On July 29, 2020 the Development Agreement was adopted by the City
Commission.
ANALYSIS
PLANNING ANALYSIS
As noted above, the HPB has recommended in favor of the designation of the Property as an
historic site. The Development Agreement contemplates certain amendments to the City Code
(specifically, at Chapter 6, entitled "Alcoholic Beverages"), the Comprehensive Plan, and the
Land Development Regulations (LDR).
Page 478 of 1430
The following is a brief summary of the proposed LDR and City Code amendments proposed
herein:
1. Allow for a hotel as a main permitted use with accessory uses, on properties within the RM-1
zoning district located north of Normandy Drive that have a lot area greater than 30,000 square
feet and are designated as a local historic site. Currently, hotels are a prohibited use in the RM-1
zoning district.
2. Increase allowable building height from 55'-0" to 80'-0".
•
3. Relax the maximum distance requirement for providing required parking off-site to 2,500 feet
within the City limits or within one (1)mile for any off-site parking provided outside City limits;
4.Allow restaurants serving alcoholic beverages as an accessory use to a hotel.
5. Subject to conditional use approval, allow for a neighborhood impact establishment, ambient
outdoor entertainment performances, and an outdoor bar counter(as accessory uses to a hotel).
6. The lobby bar, and any other bar on the property, shall only be permitted as an accessory use
to a restaurant.
7. Outdoor and open-air ambient entertainment shall be subject to conditional use approval from
the Planning Board.
8. The hours for outdoor ambient entertainment shall be limited from 10:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m,
unless modified by the Planning Board through the conditional use process.
9. Conditional use approval shall be required for an accessory outdoor bar counter.
10. Create an exemption from distance separation requirements for establishments selling or
offering alcoholic beverages for consumption on-premises.
Pursuant to the Development Agreement, if the proposed amendments are adopted, the owner
would agree to voluntarily consent to and support the designation of the International Inn as an
individual local historic site. From a sequencing standpoint, as requested by the owner, the
Development Agreement provides that the proposed amendments would be presented to the
City Commission for adoption prior to the adoption of the Designation Ordinance.
In conclusion, the proposed amendment will allow a balanced approach to ensure the long term
economic and cultural viability of a desired historic asset. The International Inn represents an
outstanding example of post-war modem architecture and is a gateway icon into North Beach.
In order to accommodate the 30-day review period required for the companion comprehensive
plan amendment, second reading and adoption of the ordinance is recommended to be set for
November 18, 2020.
PLANNING BOARD REVIEW
On July 27, 2020 the Planning Board held a public hearing and transmitted the ordinance to the
City Commission with a favorable recommendation by a vote of 7-0.
Page 479 of 1430
UPDATE
The subject ordinance was approved at first reading on September 16, 2020,with no changes.
APPLICATION FEE WAIVER
The subject amendment was referred on a comprehensive, citywide basis, and not on behalf of
a private applicant or third party. Pursuant to section 118-162(c) of the Land Development
Regulations of the City Code, amendments to the City Code require the payment of the
applicable fees in section 118-7 and Appendix A. These fees may be waived by a five-sevenths
(5/7ths)vote of the City Commission, based upon one or more of the following circumstances:
1. The City Manager determines, in writing, that the proposed amendment is necessary due to a
change in federal or state law, and/or to implement best practices in urban planning;
2. Upon written recommendation of the city manager acknowledging a documented financial
hardship of a property owner(s)or developer(s); and/or
3. If requested, in writing, by a non-profit organization, neighborhood association, or
homeowner's association for property owned by any such organization or association, so long
as the request demonstrates that a public purpose is achieved by enacting the applicable
amendment.
The City Manager has determined that the proposed amendment is necessary to implement
best practices in urban planning.
CONCLUSION
The administration recommends the following:
1. In accordance with section 118-162(c) of the City Code, the City Commission waive the
applicable application fees based upon the legislation implementing best practices in urban
planning.
2. The City Commission adopt the subject ordinance.
