Cotleur& Hearing I= LAND PLANNING LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTURE TRANSPORTATION 1934 COMMERCE LANE SUITE 1 JUPITER, FLORIDA 33458 E,,,561.747.6336 g561.747.1377 Village of Tequesta Conceptual Presentation january 12, 2023 Property Location: 358 South Cypress Drive Tequesta, Florida 33469 Property Control Number: 60-43-40-30-03-001-0050 PROJECT INFORMATION Nate Albers, Principal of South Cypress Drive Properties, LLC, is under contract to purchase a 0.4-acre property located at 358 South Cypress Drive in Tequesta, Florida. The property is east of Cypress Drive and directly adjacent to the FEC Railroad. The site is within the Village's C-3 General Commercial Zoning District and contains a 6,350 square foot building. The building, constructed in 1970, 52 years ago is in great need of cosmetic care. The building is currently occupied by an auto repair establishment providing paint and bodywork services. There have been multiple Code Enforcement Violations issued in connection with the property's existing conditions and operation. Vehicles in various states of disrepair can be seen in virtually every parking space. To say the least, the existing conditions are not indicative of the image of the Village of Tequesta. PROPOSED IMPROVEMENTS Mr. Albers intends to renovate the property by improving the architectural fagade, increasing green space, and enhancing landscape areas. The award -winning architectural firm Birse Thomas, located in Palm Beach Gardens, has been hired to redesign the existing fagade. Cotleur & Hearing will evaluate opportunities for additional green space and develop a landscape plan to complement the proposed architectural design. PROPOSED USE Mr. Albers proposes to utilize the building as a small personal office and display space for his personal collection of automobiles, art, and other memorabilia. The use of the space will be private and will not be open to the public. On a limited basis Mr. Albers anticipates using the space for small philanthropic fund raisers and invitation only showings. Special Events, if proposed, will be conducted in strict compliance with the Village of Tequesta regulations. The space will also feature flight and golf simulators for personal use. Section 78-178 (b) of the Village Code identifies the permitted uses within the C-3 General Commercial Zoning District. Auto Repair Establishments are listed as a permitted use however Page 252 of 396 Agenda Item #13. Private Car Museum — 358 South Cypress Drive Conceptual Presentation January 12, 2023 the existing code does not identify a use that adequately describes the proposed use. The Village planning department has suggested the use could be best described as "Indoor Storage," however the Village code only allows Indoor Storage as an accessory use to another permitted principal use. The occupancy of buildings for "private car museums" has become common in Northern Palm Beach County. These facilities are often constructed with a very high level of finish materials and often themed, such as the Staluppi's Cars of Dreams Museum in North Palm Beach, which has a Cooney Island theme. There are several similar uses within the Jupiter Park of Commerce. Based on our research most municipalities have classified this use as Indoor Storage which is generally permitted within Industrial Districts; such as the Jupiter Park of Commerce. The Village of Tequesta does not have formal industrial zoning districts. The C-3 General Commercial Zoning District is the closest representation to an industrial zoning district as it permits Automotive Repair Establishments, Gasoline Service Stations, and other similar uses. REQUEST The applicant is seeking direction from the Village Council for the following Options: 1. A Zoning Text Amendment (ZTA) to allow "Private Car Museum", not open to the public, as a permitted or special exception (SE) use and the incorporation of a definition for "Private Car Museum" in Section (78-4) of the Code of Ordinances. 2. A Zoning Determination that the proposed use fits within the Village's definition of "Museum" and consideration of a Zoning Text Amendment (ZTA) to add Museum to the list of permitted or special exception (SE) uses within the C-3 District. Museums are listed as an SE use within the Village's C-2 Community Commercial District. 3. A Zoning Determination that the proposed use fits in within the Village's definition of "Indoor Amusement" (without a fee or an admission charge). Note: Indoor Amusement is listed as a special exception use within the C-3 General Commercial Zoning District. A few of the relevant definitions from Section 78-4 of the Villages Code of Ordinances is provided Below: Museum means a nonprofit noncommercial establishment operated as a repository or a collection of nature, scientific, or literary curiosities or objects of interest or works of art, not including the regular sale or distribution of the objects collected. -2- Page 253 of 396 Agenda Item #13. Private Car Museum — 358 South Cypress Drive Conceptual Presentation January 12, 2023 Indoor storage means the keeping of any goods, materials, merchandise or supplies as an accessory use to any retail, office, or service use. Any retail, office, or service use shall not devote more than 35 percent of its gross floor area to indoor storage. Indoor amusement means establishments engaged in providing entertainment indoors for a fee or admission charge, including such activities as bowling, pool, billiards, or arcades which feature coin -operated or token -operated devices, such as pinball and video games, with three or more devices. SUMMARY In summary, the applicant desires to substantially improve an existing, deteriorated property for personal use as a Private Car Museum. The applicant commits to work with the village to upgrade the property, including substantial architectural and landscape enhancements, with a focus on the building's orientation to Cypress Drive. Additionally, the applicant desires to enhance the landscape within the 50-foot-wide parcel of land contiguous to the eastern boundary of the site and the FEC Railroad. Enclosed are conceptual site and architecture plans, as well as aerial and ground level photos of the site. -3- Page 254 of 396 Agenda Item #13.
