Subject: Proposed text amendment language to allow for a
rehabilitation facility in the Mixed Use District.
Attached is an Ordinance amending the Villaqe's zoning code to
allow rehabilitation facilities as a special exception use in
the mixed use zoning district and a text amendment application
from GMH Tequesta Holdings, LLC.
This proposed Ordinance and text amendment application
incorporates the directives given to staff during the December
2n Village Council Workshop.
The Ordinance creates a new definition for Rehabilitation
facility, amends the existing definition of Residential use,
adds rehabil.itation facilities as a special exception use in the
Mixed Use Zoning District, creates conditions to be met by all
rehabilitation facilities, limits density and adds Parking
Regulations for rehabilitation facilities.
I will be happy to answer any questions you may have concerning
this proposed zoning text amendment.

Regarding the Petition:
Please describe the petition being requested. (Include reason[s] for petition and intended uses for subject
property. Also, include the specific existing zoning classification[s] of the subject property proposed and the
proposed zoning classification[s], as well as the specific code sections and text proposed to be amended.):
The applicant is hereby requesting certain text amendments to the Village of Tequesta code as more
particularly described on the document entitled "GMH Proposed Text Amendments--Village of
Tequesta Code", attached as Schedule B. The current comprehensive land use designation is "Mixed
Use" and the current zoning district is "Mixed Use". No change is proposed to either the land use or
zoning district. However, one additional special exception use ("Rehabilitation Facility") is proposed to
be added to the "Mixed Use" zoning district together with a definition and ancillary code changes to
accommodate the additional use being requested.
Page 2 of 6
SECTION III
Please address (in written form) the criteria listed below:
When considering a rezoning or Zoning Code amendment petition, the Village Council/Planning and Zoning
Board shall consider the following limitations on amendments:
1. The Village Council shall not pass any amendinent except on substantial proof that it is in accord with
the Comprehensive Plan and sound zoning practice, and will serve to promote the purposes of zoning as
provided by State law;
2. No amendment to rezone property shal] contain conditions, limitations, or requirements not applicable
to all other property in the district to which the particular property is rezoned;
3. Whenever the Village Council has denied a petition for rezoning of property, the Village Council shall
not consider such request for rezoning for a per•iod of six (6) months after denial, unless the Council
determines that the public interest shall require it to do so.
The following items for an amendment or rezoning should also be considered by the Village Council:
1. If the proposed change is consistent with the established land use pattern.
Applicant Response: The proposed text amendment and addition of the Rehabilitation Facility as a
special exception to the Mixed Use district is consistent with the neighboring land uses of assisted living,
commercial and multi family residential. Tl�e use of the subject property as a Rehabilitation Facility, which
request will come as a separate application, would satisfy the requirements of the Mixed Use district and
would be a primarily residential facility consrstent with the adjacent uses. '
2. If the proposed change would adversely impact an adjacent or nearby district.
Applicant Response: The proposed text amendment (and subsequent use of the subject property as a
Rehabilitation Facility) will not adversely impact adjacent uses or nearby districts. Note that no change is
proposed to the zoning district in which the subject property is located.
3. If the proposed change would alter the population density pattern and thereby reasonably maintain, or
concurrently increase the availability of public facilities such as utilities, streets, etc.
Applicant Response: Neither the requested text amendment nor the subsequent use of the subject
property as a Rehabilitation Facility would alter the population density pattern or significantly affect the
availability of public facilities.
Page 3 of
. .
4. If the proposed cliange would be consistent with the Comprehensive Plan.
Applicant Response: No change is proposed to the zoning district. Accordingly, the requested change is
consistent with the comprehensive plan.
S. If changed or changing conditions make the passage of the proposed amendment necessary.
Applicant Response: Tlle proposed amendment is necessaiy because of the changing condition of the
subject property, which has been in a state of disrepair for several years. If the requested text amendment is
approved and the proprty is ultimately approved for use as a high-end Rehabilitation Facility, the property
will be substantially improved and maintained in a superior condition.
6. If the proposed change will maintain or positively influence living conditions in the neighborhood.
Applicant Response: See our answer to question 5 above. Clearly, the requested amendment and
ultimate use which will be requested wili rid the area of a major eyesore and will positively influence living
conditions in the neighbohood.
7. If the proposed change will maintain or improve traffic conditions, or otherwise address traffic-related
public safety issues.
Applicant Response: The requested change should have little or no effect on traffrc conditions or traffic-
related public safety issues. Ultimately, the request will be to convert an existing building to a use similar to
the use for which the building was originally constructed in terms of a living facility. �'
8. If the proposed change will maintain or improve drainage conditions.
Applicant Response: The ultimate proposed use should improve drainage conditions since completion
of construction of the site will include completion of drainage facilities on which construction began but
was not completed.
9. If the proposed change will relatively maintain, or allow for appropriate light and air conditions to
adjacent areas.
�lpplicant Response: There should be no change with regard to light and air since the building is already
existing.
10. If the proposed change witl maintain or improve property values in the adjacent area.
Applicant Response: Due to the current condition of the property, the improvements contemplated by
the applicant (should the requested text amendment and ultiinate use be approved} cannot help but enhance
the value of the properties in the adjacent area.
Page 4 of 6
11. If the proposed change will promote the improvement or development of adjacent property in accord
with existing regulations.
Applicant Resporzse: Most, if not all, of the adjacent property is already developed. The requested
amendment and ultimate requested use will not affect the development of the adjacent property.
12. If the proposed change benefits the public welfare as opposed to resulting in a grant of special privilege
to an individual owner.
Applicant Response: The requested amendment and ultimate use will benefit the public welfare in that it
will improve a u'ilapidated parcel of property, increase the Village's tax base and provide a service which is
vital in any community, but at a vety high Ievel. No special privilege would be granted to the applicant by
appoving the requested amndment and ultimate use.
13. If tl�ere are substantial reasons why the property requires a change from existing zoning.
Applicant Response: No change to the existing zoning is being requested. However, the applicant will
be requesting a special exception for the Rehabilitation Facility presuming the text amendment request is
approved. Without the requested change to the code, the use is not pennitted.
14. Whether the change suggested is to scale, or appropriately balanced with the needs of the neighborhood
or the Village.
Applicant Response: The requested change will have no effect on the scale or balance of the
neighborhood. The building is already constructed.
I5. After using reasonable diligence, the Petitioner can demonstrate there is a reasonable lack of alternative
sites available in the Village for the proposed use.
Applicant Response: There are currently no sites available in the Village for the proposed ultimate use as
a Rehabilitation Facility. The use is not in the code, thus necessitating the requested text amendment. With
regard to the subject property, it is especially suited to the ultimate use as a Rehabilitation Facility (to be
requested in a separate application) for several reasons. First, the building was constructed to house an
assisted living use, a use similar in the sense that it is also general community living with private sleeping
and living accomodations and with community dining and activities. Second, the building and property are
in a terrible physical state, a condition that will be remedied should the approvals be granted. Finally, the
location lends itself to the privacy the rehabilitation clients, the owner and the Village will want to see
maintained with regard to sucll a use.
