Inc.,respectfully request your approvai of the applicant's proposal to amend the Village of Tequesta's
Future Land Use Map and Rezoning Map for the property located at 691 US Highway 1 in the Village

This request is necessary in order to propose a mixed use development in a prime location in the

Note, this Ncrrrative ONLYaddresses the Future Land Use Map Amendment/Zoning Map
Amendment of the application. The Unity of Title/Site Plan Review justification have been
submitted under separate cover.

On December 16, 2017, at the request of Village staff, Gentile Glas Holloway O'Mahoney &
Associates, Inc. presented the applicant's proposal for Pelican Square to the Village Council. The

With Village Council's approval to abandon the alley, the owner can now utilize the entire site to
create a functional,harmonious mixed use development. Additionally,the owner will provide a public
access easement through the site for the general use of the public.
COMPATIBILITY WITH SURROUNDING PROPERTIES:
Although the subject properties along the eastern corridor of US Highway 1 are all zoned G2, mixed
use zoning and land use designations are directly west of US-1,confirming that the applicant's request
will be consistent with the surrounding zoning and land use as shown on the chart below.

.IUSTIFICATION:
As previously stated,a land use and zoning map amendment is necessary to yield the above referenced
development program. It is the design team's position that the proposed development will serve as a
transition from the commercial uses west of the US-1 to the single family residential to the east.
Further, as the US Highway 1 Lane Reduction and Resurfacing project has commenced, the property
will be well situated in a place that can take advantage of buffered bike lanes,pedestrian signalization,
and patterned pavement crosswalks, ALL of which will promote walkability, and aid in creating a
sense of place. Further,the change to a Mixed Use Land Use and Zoning designation will foster a low
impact development that is intended to complement the existing uses, as opposed to a more intense
commercial use, that could potential pose adverse effects on the surrounding community.
LAND USE MAP AMENDMENT TO MIXED—USE AND CONSISTENCY WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE
PI.AN:
By proposing the land use map amendment, the applicant will remain consistent with the following
Goals, Objectives, and Policies of the Village of Tequesta's Comprehensive Plan.
Goal: 1.0.0 — Provide for the development of suitable and compatible land uses which will
preserve, enhance, and are within the established character of the Villa�e of Teq uesta.
Applicant Response: The proposed land use change to Mixed Use will offer a transition fi•om the
commercial uses west of US Highway 1 into the single family residential to the east. The proposed
development will serve as infill development in a prime location in the Village of Tequesta. The
development will be modest and remain within the estahlished character of the village of Tequesta.

Additionally, the residential uses shall comprise no less than 20% and no more than 80%of a mixed
use district.
Applicant's response: It is the intent of the applicant to remain within the thresholds stipulated by the
zoning code. The site plan, which is also being reviewed, does not exceed 18 dwelling units/acre, and
the nonresidential uses of the project does not exceed a FAR of 2.0 Additionally, the residential uses
will not comprise arry less than 20%and no more than 80%of the mixed use site.

Applicant's Response: The purpose of the proposed land use map amendment is to provide the
applicant the opportunity to build a modest, small-scale pedestrian oriented development in a prime
location in the Village. The development proposal will provide numerous opportunities for potential
users of the site to interact and engage with the surrounding areas on a pedestrian level. As stated,
the LIS Highway 1 resurfacing project will aid the proposed development in creating a sense of place.
Policy 1.3.6 —Require adequate parking, suitably arranged and attractively landscaped, in all
developments.

proposed that serves to create a visual screen to the adjacent residential homes to the east.
Policy 1.3.7 — Strive for compatible developments that will benefit the Village and compliment
the aesthetic character of the community.
Applicant's Response: If approved, the proposed future land use map and rezoning amendments to
Mixed Use will allow for the development that will be not only compatible, but beneftcial to the nearby
community, as the surrounding commercial properties will provide commercial services in near
proximity to the development, thus aiding in the creation of a viable communiry with social and
economic well-being.
Policy 1.3.12 — As part of the Site Plan Review process, compatibility with adjacent land uses
shall be demonstrated. Compatibility is defined as consistency with the Future Land Use Map
and compliance wit6 Village land development regulations.

Applicant's response: Under the site plan review process, the applicant will demonstrate that the
proposed development will not cause an adverse effect on the surrounding properties.
Objective 1.11.0 — Implement innovative development and redevelopment concepts such as
Planned Unit Development, overlav wning, transit oriented development, and mixed use
development through the land development re�ulations and other appropriate mechanisms in
order to reduce automobile de[�endency and �reenhouse �as emissions, increase energy
efficiency, reduce sprawl and promote more efficient development patterns.
Applicant's response: The applicant believes that the above objective is directly applicable to the
proposed development. On a basic level, mixed use developments are intended to foster infill, and
should aim to create neighborhood developments with the purpose of lessening the need for additional
