March 12, 2012

WHEREAS, the Hillsborough County City‐County Planning

Commission has reviewed the proposal and the adopted goals, objectives and

policies of the Comprehensive Plan for the City of Plant City as stated in the staff

report as follows:

Future Land Use Element Policy 2.B.1: The City shall encourage the development of shopping nodes rather than scattered unplanned commercial development in order to limit the number of curb cuts and to reduce conflicts in land uses, particularly along collectors and arterials. Objective 7.A: In all actions of the City, urban sprawl shall be discouraged and a compact urban pattern of development shall be provided for in a manner which will

promote the conversation of energy resources, the reduction of greenhouse gases, the

full utilization of existing public infrastructure, and allow for the orderly extension

and expansion of municipal facilities in a fiscally responsible manner within Plant

City.

Policy 7.D.4: The City shall give priority to neighborhood and commercial

redevelopment projects in those areas where conditions of physical, economic, and/or

social blight exist.

Policy 7.D.5: Development and redevelopment shall be integrated with adjacent land

uses through: creation of like uses; creation of complementary uses; or mitigation of

adverse impacts.

Policy 7.E.1: Ensure that the location and timing of new development will be

coordinated with the Cityʹs ability to provide public facilities through implementation

of growth management measures such as development phasing, programming of public

facilities and zoning and subdivision regulations.

Policy 8.A.16: One of the implementation strategies the City shall use to attract

business and economic investment is to build an appealing and livable city. Some of the

elements of an appealing and livable city include: economic opportunity, a sense of

place and community, attractiveness, mobility options, feeling of safety, a mix of uses

and open spaces.

Public Facilities Element

Objective 1.A: The City of Plant City will continue to implement procedures to

ensure that at the time a development permit is issued, capacity, consistent with the

level‐of‐service standards, is available, or will be available, when needed to serve the

development.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the Hillsborough County

City‐County Planning Commission finds the requested plan amendment

CONSISTENT with the Comprehensive Plan for the City of Plant City and

recommends PC/CPA 11‐11 – Thonotosassa Road and Baker Street be

approved.


City of Plant City, PC/CPA 11‐01 Page 1

Comprehensive Plan for the City of Plant City:

“Embracing the Future, while Preserving our Past”

Plant City: PC/CPA 11‐11 – Thonotosassa Road and Baker Street

I. Description of Plan Amendment Request

This privately initiated map amendment of 2.31± acres is located on the east side of

Thonotosassa Road just north of Baker Street in the City of Plant City. The current land

use category (Residential‐12) does not permit the potential range of uses desired by the

owner, specifically commercial and office development. Therefore, the applicant has

requested a small scale map amendment to change this parcel’s land use from

Residential‐12 to Light Commercial/Office.

Background

The applicant is

requesting a Light

Commercial/Office

Land Use Plan

Category intended for

areas where limited,

less‐intensive

commercial/office uses

are more appropriate

than those uses

permitted in the

general “commercial”

land‐use category due

to the area’s proximity to residential, institutional and/or recreational areas.

Appropriate sites for these types of uses, include areas where it would enhance existing

or planned development patterns, adequate public facilities are available or will be

available concurrent with development and is expected to meet existing or future

market demands within and around the City of Plant City. Light Commercial/Office

uses are most commonly neighborhood serving uses, such as personal service, small

office, low‐intensity retail, where manufacturing, wholesale distribution, warehousing,

outside storage or other visible signs of intensive‐commercial enterprise will not be

permitted. Examples of light commercial/office uses include:

PC/CPA 11‐11, Plan Amendment Outlined In Purple

Page 2 City of Plant City, PC/CPA 11‐11

Professional business offices for low‐traffic professions, such as attorneys,

accountants, professional engineers, mental‐health professionals, small‐practice

medical offices (not multiple medical‐discipline clinics), etc.

Low‐traffic personal‐service establishments, such as barber and beauty shops, nail

salons, photography studios, dry cleaners, mortgage companies, insurance agents,

interior decorators, electronic‐equipment repair, shoe repair, daycare centers, etc.

Low‐volume retail stores, such as florists, quick‐print shops, cell‐phone outlets,

bicycle shops, locksmiths, etc.

Small‐scale, limited‐seating restaurants and sandwich shops (not fast food and/or

drive‐through‐service establishments).

Worship‐only small churches and synagogues.

The Light Commercial/Office Plan Category allows for mixed‐use development and

provides for intensities of up to 0.35 floor area ratio (FAR) and residential densities up

to a maximum of 10 dwelling units per gross acre.

Characteristics of the Category:

Does not allow general highway or intense commercial uses.

Perimeters should be buffered from adjacent residential, institutional, and

recreational areas.

Relationship to the Street System:

Uses shall be limited to light commercial or office uses, which have limited

transportation trip‐generation attributes and parking requirements, and that

have negligible impact on adjacent non‐commercial uses.

Light Commercial/Office areas shall have direct frontage on arterial or collector

streets, or shall be accessible from arterial or collector streets via connecting local

streets that do not pass through existing or planned residential areas.

The potential build‐out for this parcel under its existing and proposed land use is

shown in the table on the next page:


Potential Build‐Out based on Future Land Use Plan Category Designations

Existing Potential:

27 Dwelling Units

Potential If Amendment Is Approved:

23 Dwelling Units

or

35,218 sq. ft. non‐residential uses

(or a combination thereof)

The following report analyzes this proposed amendment within the context of the

municipality’s future “vision”, its compatibility with surrounding lands, the availability

of public facilities, compliance with current legislation and professional planning

standards, and its overall consistency with the Comprehensive Plan for the City of Plant

City.

Amenment Site

Amendment Site

Amendment Site


II. Vision and Context

Big Picture ‐ Vision

Based on Plant City’s Strategic Guide, along with interviews with elected and appointed

officials, the business community, staff and local residents a Vision Map was developed

for the City of Plant City. The Vision Map provides a generalized big picture view of the

future of the City of Plant City. The Vision Map

is not intended to be detailed, but rather to

provide guidance and support the policy

direction contained within the Comprehensive

Plan for the City of Plant City.

On this map, to offer a greater variety of living

and working environments, a major activity

center is envisioned at Thonotosassa Road and

Interstate‐4, in close proximity to the parcel

addressed in PC/CPA 11‐11.

Within the Context of the Comprehensive Plan

for the City of Plant City

Through policy direction and planning

techniques, Plant City promotes compact mixed‐

use and infill development that encourages

walking, biking and establishes activity nodes.

Through mechanisms such as these, Plant City strives to live by the motto of “Embracing

the Future, while Preserving our Past”.

The Comprehensive Plan for the City of Plant City encourages commercial and office

activity centers in nearby settings such as the Historic Downtown, the Midtown

Redevelopment District and interstate interchanges where available land,

transportation and other public facilities provide a suitable environment to develop

services to support the population of the City of Plant City. The amendment site,

PC/CPA 11‐11 is located near the Thonotosassa Road interchange with Interstate‐4

considered a “Community Activity Center”. As mentioned previously, the applicant is

seeking a Light Commercial/Office Future Land Use designation; a category that is

complimentary to both residential neighborhoods and commercial areas surrounding

the identified activity center at Thonotosassa Road/Interstate‐4. It should be noted that

the municipality does not want to be a bedroom community for the Cities of Tampa and

Lakeland and values the entrepreneurial spirit of the residents of Plant City. The

Plant City Vision Map


jurisdiction’s employment base is forecasted to increase by 7,860 under the current

planning horizon of 2025, with the majority of this employment occurring in regional

and local service uses commonly associated with the Light Commercial/Office Future

Land Use Category.

Surrounding and Adjacent Lands

The amendment site currently consists of two vacant buildings totaling nearly 3,500 sq.

ft. last used as a place of worship. Areas to the south and west of the map amendment

site (PC/CPA 11‐11) have a Commercial land use category permitting a range of uses

more intense than those of Light Commercial/Office. Those Commercially designated

properties to the west are also within the Strawberry Festival Special Use Overlay

District. The lands to the north and east are currently designated Residential‐12 and

are comprised of a variety of residential uses including single family detached and

townhouse development. A townhouse development is directly north and a

commercial business is directly south of the site.

III. Plan Amendment Impacts/Issues

Potable Water and Sanitary Sewer

Plant City has adequate capacity to serve the potential development associated with

PC/CPA 11‐11. Reference the attachments for a more detailed analysis of potential

water consumption and wastewater generation, as provided by the Plant City City

Engineer.

Solid Waste

There is adequate capacity at Plant City’s solid waste transfer facility to serve the

potential uses allowed by PC/CPA 11‐11.

South Bound Thonotosassa Road North Bound Thonotosassa Road


Stormwater

When this site is redeveloped, adequate stormwater storage and treatment facilities will

need to be in place to comply with the rules and provisions of the City of Plant City, as

well as the Southwest Florida Water Management District (SWFWMD).

Transportation

No capacity issues are forecasted by the proposed amendment. No improvements are

programmed within the Plant City Capital Improvements Element for the immediate

area. The complete transportation impact analysis can be reviewed in its entirety, as

part of the Attachments.

Recreation and Open Space

The municipality will continue to maintain its adopted level‐of‐service for parkland, as

noted in the recently adopted Recreation and Open Space Element of Plant City.

Intergovernmental Coordination

Staff requested cursory review comments from 1) Hillsborough County: Development

Services; Fire Rescue; Sheriff’s Office; Solid Waste Department; Public Works

Department; Recreation Department; 2) City of Plant City: City Manager; City Attorney;

Fire Department; Planning and Zoning Division; City Engineer; Community

Development Department; Police Department; Public Works Division; Parks and

Recreation Department; 3) Other Agencies: School District of Hillsborough County;

Hillsborough County Aviation Authority; Environmental Protection Commission of

Hillsborough County; Florida Department of Transportation; Tampa Bay Regional

Planning Council; Hillsborough County School District; Southwest Florida Water

Management District and Tampa Bay Water. Other than those comments already

noted; no significant comments on this map amendment have been received as of

February 24, 2012. Comments received to date are included within the Attachments.

IV. Relationship to the Comprehensive Plan

The plan amendment request is consistent with the following objectives and policies of

the Comprehensive Plan for the City of Plant City:

Future Land Use Element

Policy 2.B.1: The City shall encourage the development of shopping nodes rather than scattered

unplanned commercial development in order to limit the number of curb cuts and to reduce

conflicts in land uses, particularly along collectors and arterials.


Objective 7.A: In all actions of the City, urban sprawl shall be discouraged and a compact

urban pattern of development shall be provided for in a manner which will promote the

conversation of energy resources, the reduction of greenhouse gases, the full utilization of

existing public infrastructure, and allow for the orderly extension and expansion of municipal

facilities in a fiscally responsible manner within Plant City.

Policy 7.D.4: The City shall give priority to neighborhood and commercial redevelopment

projects in those areas where conditions of physical, economic, and/or social blight exist.

Policy 7.D.5: Development and redevelopment shall be integrated with adjacent land uses

through: creation of like uses; creation of complementary uses; or mitigation of adverse impacts.

Policy 7.E.1: Ensure that the location and timing of new development will be coordinated with

the Cityʹs ability to provide public facilities through implementation of growth management

measures such as development phasing, programming of public facilities and zoning and

subdivision regulations.

Policy 8.A.16: One of the implementation strategies the City shall use to attract business and

economic investment is to build an appealing and livable city. Some of the elements of an

appealing and livable city include: economic opportunity, a sense of place and community,

attractiveness, mobility options, feeling of safety, a mix of uses and open spaces.

Public Facilities Element

Objective 1.A: The City of Plant City will continue to implement procedures to ensure that at

the time a development permit is issued, capacity, consistent with the level‐of‐service standards,

is available, or will be available, when needed to serve the development.

V. Analysis and Conclusion

The proposed plan category supports the overall vision of the Comprehensive Plan for the

City of Plant City. All public facilities (i.e. water, sewer, transportation, etc.) are in place

and adequate to serve the potential maximum build‐out of PC/CPA 11‐11.

The proposed plan amendment furthers the policy direction and planning techniques as

expressed within the Comprehensive Plan for the City of Plant City; and will promote

compact mixed‐use and infill development, which in turn encourages walking and

biking, along with supporting the activity node at Thonotosassa Road/Interstate‐4. The

Light Commercial/Office designation does allow for the consideration of a mixed‐use

component that is complementary and targets areas for future job creation and


residential growth. In addition, this small scale map amendment supports the concept

of promoting development where adequate public facilities are currently available in

Plant City. A Light Commercial/Office designation located in proximity to a

Community Activity Center and Downtown appears to be a logical choice to provide

greater redevelopment options for the area as well as a less intense transition to the

nearby neighborhoods. As a result, the propose change is supported by policy direction

contained in the Comprehensive Plan for the City of Plant City.

VI. Recommendation

Staff recommends that PC/CPA 11‐11 be approved, amending Residenital‐12 to Light

Commercial/Office Land Use Plan Category finding the proposal consistent with the

Comprehensive Plan for the City of Plant City, Future Land Use Element, Objectives and

Policies 2.B.1, 7.A, 7.A.4, 7.D.4, 7.D.5, 7.E.1 and 8.A.16 and Public Facilities Element,

Objective 1.A.

Executive Planner DATE: December 28, 2011

RE: Plant City Plan Amendment November 2011 Cycle

The Planning Commission County Group staff has reviewed the proposed text plan amendments to the Plant City Comprehensive Plan’s Future Land Use, Housing, Transportation, Capital Improvements, Public Facilities, Public School Facilities and Intergovernmental Coordination Elements, Definition Section and two (2) Plant City Future Land Use Map amendments. Staff recognizes that the proposed text amendments are intended to update the Plant City Comprehensive Plan and finds that the changes are consistent with the County’s Comprehensive Plan. In addition, staff finds the two (2) proposed Future Land Use Map amendments consistent with the County’s Comprehensive Plan. PC/CPA 11-10 Karen Drive proposes to change the Future Land Use designation from a County Future Land Use category (Residential-2) to a Plant City Future Land Use category (Residential-4 – The lowest density designation in Plant City) in order to recognize an existing, residentially developed lot annexed in to the Plant City city limits. The change has no impacts to the surrounding area as the site is developed with a residence and is part of established residential subdivision. PC/CPA 11-11 Thonotosassa Road proposes to change the Plant City Future Land Use designation from Residential-12 to Light Commercial/Office. The site is located approximately a mile from the Plant City city limits and poses little impact to County land uses other than potential transportation impacts which will be addressed at the site plan review stage of development. In conclusion, the Planning Commission County Group finds the proposed changes to the Plant City Comprehensive Plan consistent with the County’s Comprehensive Plan. Thank you for the opportunity to review these plan amendments. If you have any questions, please call me at 272-5940.

From: Gena TorresSent: Monday, January 23, 2012 9:01 AMTo: Jay Collins; Mark Hudson; Mark HudsonCc: Beth AldenSubject: RE: Plant City PA NOV.11 review document

Gentlemen, Thank you for the opportunity to review the Plant City Plan Amendments. From the standpoint of multimodal transportation, the text changes do not appear to impact the ability to move people safely and efficiently in the city. The amendment on Thonotosassa Road (PC/CPA 11‐11) was not of great concern. When land use changes from residential to light commercial/office, I like to review it in the context of employees and/or customers having the ability to access the site on foot, bicycle, or via transit. There are shoulders along Thonotosassa Road which are adequate for bicycling (bicycle LOS is a B on this segment of Thonotosassa). Although the Pedestrian and Transit LOS are very poor, there were no proposed sidewalk, trail, or transit projects along this section of roadway in the 2035 LRTP Cost Affordable. The sidewalk on the southbound side of Thonotosassa on the Walgreens property is almost directly across from this site – a midblock crossing here is unlikely, but may become an issue as development increases.

Re: November 2011 Cycle CPAs

The City of Plant City Engineering Division has reviewed the potential potable water

and sanitary sewer impacts for the amendments listed below:

Existing Capacity

Water

Permitted Capacity: 7.389 MGD

Existing Available Capacity: 2.512 MGD

Sewer

Permitted Capacity: 10.0 MGD

Existing Available Capacity: 4.3 MGD

Proposed Demand Calculations

PC/CPA 11‐10 (Karen Drive)

The maximum build out for this map amendment is 1 dwelling unit.

Using 350 gallons per day (GPD) for residential:

Water Demand = 350 GPD

Sewer Demand = 350 GPD

PC/CPA 11‐11 (Thonotosassa Road)

The maximum build out for this map amendment is 23 dwelling units or 35,218 sq. ft.

non‐residential uses (or a combination thereof).

Using 350 gallons per day (GPD) for residential:

Water Demand = 8,050 GPD

Sewer Demand = 8,050 GPD

Using 15 gallons per 100 sq. ft. non‐residential per day:

Water Demand = 5,283 GPD

Sewer Demand = 5,283 GPD

Conclusion

Maximum total demand of 8,400 GPD for water and sewer can be met by the existing

available capacity of Plant City.
