MEMORANDUM NO. PZ 24-027 STAFF REPORT TO: Mayor Ty Penserga Members of the City Commission THRU: Amanda B. Radigan, AICP, LEED AP Planning and Zoning Director FROM: Luis Bencosme, Senior Planner DATE: November 7, 2024 PROJECT: Seacrest Sound Apartments, (Variance, ZNCV-2024.06.52374) Requests: Approve the request for a Variance from Part III, Chapter 4, Article III, Section 31.3 — Building and Site Regulations (Table 3-20), to allow the 2.97 -acre subject property to be rezoned to Planned Commercial Development (PCD) district, which requires a minimum lot area of 3 acres, a difference of 0.03 acre. Applicant: Alfredo Borges, Seacrest Apts Property Owner LLC BACKGROUND The Seacrest Sound Apartments project proposes an affordable apartment complex on a vacant 2.97 -acre parcel located just north of the C. Stanley Weaver Canal on the west side of North Seacrest Boulevard. The applicant is requesting approval of several concurrent applications for Seacrest Sound Apartments (see respective staff reports). The first two applications, a Land Use Map Amendment (FLUM-2024.06.52374) and Rezoning (REZN-2024.06.52374), seek to amend the land use designation from Low Density Residential (LDR) and Recreational (R) to Local Retail Commercial (LRC) and rezone the property from Single -Family Residential (R -1-A) to Planned Commercial Development (PCD). The third application (NMP -2024.06.52374) is for a New Master Plan (Exhibit "B" — Master Plan) consisting of 89 affordable residential units and associated site improvements. Pursuant to Part III, Chapter 4, Article III, Section 3.F.3 - Building and Site Regulations (Table 3- 20), the PCD district requires a minimum lot area of 3 acres. The subject property is deficient by approximately 0.03 acres; therefore, the applicant is seeking approval of a Variance request (ZNCV-2024.06.52374) to obtain relief from the minimum lot area requirements in order to rezone the subject property to PCD. C:\Users\DeJesusM\Downloads\Staff_Report_-_Variance (1).docx Seacrest Sound Apartments (ZNCV 2024.06.52374) Memorandum No PZ 24-027 Page 2 PROPOSAL The applicant is requesting approval of a Variance due to the subject property's lot area being 2.97 acres, rather than 3 -acres, which is required for the Planned Commercial Development (PCD) district. The 0.03 -acre shortfall prevents the property from meeting the PCD district's lot area requirement. Approval of the Variance would enable the subject property to rezone to the PCD district, in conjunction with the Master Plan (NMP -2024.06.52374), which proposes the construction of 89 affordable apartment units that will be income restricted for households earning up to 120% of the area median income (AMI). ANALYSIS The City Commission has the authority and duty to authorize such variance from the terms of a city ordinance as will not be contrary to the public interest when, owing to special conditions, a literal enforcement of the provisions of the city ordinance would result in unnecessary and undue hardship. In order to authorize any variance from the terms of an ordinance, the applicant must demonstrate that the request meets the following criteria (a -f). The applicant's justification and response to these criteria is attached (see Exhibit A - Justification Statement). a. That special conditions and circumstances exist which are peculiar to the land, structure, or building involved and which are not applicable to other lands, structures or buildings in the same zoning district. The subject parcel presents a unique set of circumstances that are not applicable to other properties in the same zoning district. Originally, the subject property was a part of the church located at 1390 N. Seacrest Boulevard, and was dissected by Seacrest Boulevard, resulting in the formation of two distinct parcels. The smaller parcel, situated west of N. Seacrest Boulevard and currently undeveloped, is now the subject property. The subject property abutting the canal to the south and Seacrest Boulevard to the east is shaped like a rectangular with the narrow front lot line, which makes hard to design single-family lots. The total area of the subject property is 2.97 acres, which falls just short of the 3 -acre minimum lot area required by the Planned Commercial Development (PCD) district. As a result, the applicant is requesting approval of a Variance (ZNCV - 2024.06.52374) to allow for the subject property to be rezoned to PCD district. The approval of this Variance is critical, as it directly impacts the Future Land Use Map Amendment, Rezoning and Master Plan applications, which are necessary for the proposed development to proceed. b. That the special conditions and circumstances do not result from the actions of the applicant. The special conditions and circumstances affecting the subject property have not resulted from any actions taken by the applicant. As outlined previously, the lot area of the property has remained unchanged since the original tract of land was bisected by N. Seacrest Boulevard, a division that occurred long before the applicant's involvement. This roadway split resulted in the creation of two distinct parcels, with the subject parcel remaining unimproved for years. The recent Lot Line Modification, approved through the City's process, simply formalized the separation of this smaller parcel from the larger church property, enabling its potential development. This action was a procedural step necessary to allow the parcel to be C:\Users\DeJesusM\Downloads\Staff_Report_-_Variance (1).docx Seacrest Sound Apartments (ZNCV 2024.06.52374) Memorandum No PZ 24-027 Page 3 developed in alignment with current zoning and land use regulations. The applicant is now seeking a Variance to address the deficiency in lot area. c. That granting the variance requested will not confer on the applicant any special privilege that is denied by this ordinance to other lands, buildings, or structures in the same zoning district. Based on the City's official Zoning Map, there are seven properties zoned PCD (Planned Commercial Development), all located west of 1-95, an area historically considered suburban. In recent years, the City has not received any applications for rezoning to PCD, and there is no other vacant land with this zoning designation. The proposed rezoning would be the first in several years and the first PCD -zoned property east of 1-95, in the Urban Area. Since no other undeveloped properties in the vicinity are zoned PCD, and this rezoning effort is unique in its context, granting this Variance application does not create any special advantage or set an unfavorable precedent. The variance merely accommodates development of the subject parcel within reasonable parameters, while promoting the affordable housing. d. That literal interpretation of the provisions of this ordinance would deprive the applicant of rights commonly enjoyed by other properties in the same zoning district under the terms of the ordinance and would work unnecessary and undue hardship on the applicant. The proposed Future Land Use Map Amendment, Rezoning, and Master Plan are all contingent on approval of this Variance request. The subject parcel measures 2.97 acres, which is just 0.03 acres shy of the 3 -acre minimum lot area required for the PCD (Planned Commercial Development) district. Strict enforcement of this minimum lot area would disqualify the applicant from pursuing the proposed development, despite the fact that the requested relief is minimal. Denying the variance based on such a small lot area difference would not only halt the development but also prevent the construction of much-needed affordable housing. This outcome would create an undue burden on the applicant without any substantial benefit to the public, as the parcel's size is otherwise appropriate for the proposed use. Approving the variance would allow the applicant to move forward with a project. Additionally, approval of this Variance request would support the proposed development as it aligns with the City's Comprehensive Plan, which emphasizes housing diversity, redevelopment, and protection of the nearby residential areas from incompatible uses. Specifically, the following Comprehensive Plan objectives and policies: Objective 1.11 The City shall promote the development of a variety of rental and owner - occupied, single- and multi -family housing for a broad range of income groups, diverse cultures and for groups with special needs, and strive to protect residential environments by preventing or minimizing land use conflicts. Policy 1.11.1 The City shall continue efforts to encourage a variety of housing choices by allowing a full range of residential densities to accommodate a diversity of housing choices including, single family, multi -family, manufactured and mobile dwellings and group homes.

That the variance granted is the minimum variance that will make possible the reasonable use of the land, building, or structure. The requested variance represents the minimum relief necessary to allow for the reasonable use of the subject parcel. The parcel measures 2.97 acres, just 0.03 acres short of the 3 - acre minimum lot size required for Planned Commercial Development (PCD) zoning. This small deficiency in lot size is the only factor preventing the applicant from proceeding with a proposed multi -family development, which aligns with the City's goals for housing diversity and redevelopment. Without this variance, the applicant would be unable to use the parcel as intended, despite the fact that the proposed project is appropriate for the area and compatible with the surrounding uses. Therefore, the approval of this variance would provide the minimum necessary adjustment to allow for reasonable use of the land while maintaining consistency with the overall intent of the subject ordinance. f. That the granting of the variance will be in harmony with the general intent and purpose of this chapter [ordinance] and that such variance will not be injurious to the area involved or otherwise detrimental to the public welfare. Granting the requested variance will be in harmony with the general intent and purpose of the PCD (Planned Commercial Development) district. Furthermore, the Variance will not adversely impact the surrounding area or be detrimental to public welfare, but enable to improve a long -vacant parcel, contribute to the revitalization of the area and enhance the community's quality of life. This variance is a minor adjustment to the minimum lot area requirement, allowing for development of the project that aligns with the City's goals for housing diversity, redevelopment, and compatible land use. The associated Master Plan (NMP -2024.06.52374) supports the objectives of the City's Comprehensive Plan by providing income restricted affordable housing. At the time of site plan, the design of the proposed development will be required to complement the existing character of the neighborhood and may not introduce any incompatible uses or negative impacts. RECOMMENDATION Staff has reviewed the proposed Variance request (ZNCV 2024.06.52374) in accordance with the applicable review criteria. Approval of this Variance request by the City Commission is contingent upon the approval of the associated Future Land Use Map Amendment (FLUM 2024.06.52374), Rezoning (REZN 2024.06.52374) and New Master Plan (NMP 2024.06.52374) applications, and the project must satisfy all conditions indicated in Exhibit C — Conditions of Approval. Any additional conditions required by the City commission shall be documented accordingly in the Conditions of Approval (Exhibit C).

The Property is comprised of the portion of two (2) parcels referenced by parcel control numbers 08-43-45-21-00-000-1010 and 08-43-45-21-19- 000-0010 that is generally located on the west side of North Seacrest Boulevard and on the north side of the Boynton Canal within the City of Boynton Beach ("City). The Property is designated LDR, Low Density Residential — 7.5 Dwelling Units per Acre, on the City's Future Land Use Map and is located within the R -1-A, Single-family Residential, zoning district. The Property is vacant and serving no beneficial use to the City or the surrounding community. The population in the City is steadily growing, particularly post -pandemic with many moving to the City from out of state, and housing costs rising astronomically due to high demand and low supply. While the City has worked hard to increase affordable housing inventory, the existing housing stock within the City does not provide sufficient affordable housing opportunities for the projected population to live within the City. At this time, Petitioner proposes to develop the Property as a residential development comprised of eighty-nine (89) dwelling units (+/- 30 dwelling units per acre), one hundred percent (100%) of which will be provided as affordable housing units for households earning up to 120% of the AMI in accordance with the Live Local Act ("Project"). The Property is in a unique location between an established single family community to the north and east and a mix of water management (canal) and institutional uses to the east and south, and as such is appropriately placed to provide either a neighborhood serving commercial establishment or a transitional residential use with higher density. The City's standard residential future land use designations do not provide sufficient density to create a feasible affordable housing development and the mixed- use future land use designations are inappropriate for the proposed use of the Property. As there is not a more appropriate residential future land use and zoning district, Petitioner proposes to amend the future land use designation and zoning district to commercial designations and establish the intended affordable housing residential use through the Live Local Act. In order to ensure transparency in the process, Petitioner also proposes to utilize the Planned Commercial Development District and provide a Master Plan illustrating the proposed residential development. Pursuant to discussions with City staff, the Master Plan and Site Plan will be reviewed in accordance with the MU -2 property development regulations and design standards. In order to develop the Project, Petitioner has submitted applications requesting approval of the following development applications: t +1 (561)405-3300 & +1 (561) 409-2341 0 www.miskelbackman.com 9 14 SE 4th Street, Suite 36 Boca Raton, FL 33432 Future Land Use Map ("FLUM") Amendment from the LDR, Low Density Residential 7.5 Dwelling Units per Acre, FLUM designation to the LRC, Local Retail Commercial, FLUM designation; Rezoning from the R -1-A, Single-family Residential, zoning district to the PCD, Planned Commercial Development, zoning district; and Master Plan Approval for an eighty-nine (89) dwelling unit Multifamily Residential development with one hundred percent (100%) of the housing units provided as affordable housing in accordance with the Live Local Act, and development standards in accordance with the MU -2 zoning district. The City's PCD zoning district establishes a minimum lot area of 3 acres, which the Property is just under. As such, Petitioner respectfully requests approval for the following variance: Variance to allow a minimum lot area of 2.97 acre in lieu of the 3 -acre minimum lot area required for the proposed PCD zoning district. VARIANCE CRITERIA Petitioner will demonstrate below that the requested Variance complies with the City's adopted variance criteria. a. There are special conditions and circumstances that exist which are peculiar to the Property, and which are not applicable to other lands, structures or buildings in the same zoning district. As noted above, the Variance is to allow minimum lot area of 2.97 acres in lieu of the 3 -acre minimum required for a PCD. The Project entails affordable residential development through the Live Local Act and the PCD zoning is proposed only to ensure full transparency in the approval process for the proposed residential use by requiring that a Master Plan be approved by the City Commission for the residential development in conjunction with the requested FLUM Amendment and Rezoning. As such, the minimum lot area that is typically required for a planned commercial development is not necessary. b. The special conditions and circumstances do not result from the actions of Petitioner. The Variance is necessary to allow for the PCD zoning to be established on the Property in order to create the requirement for a Master Plan for the proposed residential development. This special circumstance is not due to the actions of Petitioner; rather, it is to ensure the most transparent development review process possible for the Project. c. Granting the Variance requested will not confer on Petitioner any special privilege that is denied by this section to other lands, structures or buildings in the same zoning district. The City would provide the same consideration to any affordable residential development seeking Master Plan approval. Page 2 of 3 d. That literal interpretations of the provisions of the ordinance would deprive Petitioner of rights commonly enjoyed by other properties in the same zoning district under the terms of the ordinance and would work unnecessary and undue hardship on Petitioner. As noted above, this Variance is necessary to provide the proposed residential development through the City's PCD Master Plan process. e. The Variance granted is the minimum variance that will make possible reasonable use of the Property. As noted above, the lot area reduction is 0.03 acres, which is the minimum variance possible to make possible the use of the Property as there is no abutting land that Petitioner can acquire to meet the 3 -acre minimum. f. Grantingthe Variance will be in harmony with the general intent and purpose of the City Code and will not be injurious to the area involved or be otherwise detrimental to the public welfare. As noted above, the Variance is necessary to provide a PCD Master Plan for the proposed residential development, which will serve a significant benefit to the City by creating a modern affordable housing opportunity to serve the current and future residents of the City, and helping to address the ongoing housing crisis. The PCD Master Plan also provides the City Commission the opportunity to review the general details for the proposed residential development through the public hearing approval process, which would not otherwise be required if the Property were rezoned to a standard commercial zoning district. As such, approval of the requested Variance will ensure transparency in the review and approval of the Project as a whole. In consideration of these details, granting the Variance will be in harmony with the general intent and purpose of the City Code and will not be injurious to the area involved or be otherwise detrimental to the public welfare.
