ISR/ Proposed 85% / 84% P Max. Bldg. Ht. /Proposed 75 ft. / ±20 ft. P The proposed restaurant with a drive-through is consistent with the Growth Management Plan (GMP) and with AC-1 zoning. The request is also consistent with all portions of the Land Development Code (see below for further details on needed adjustments to the site plan for the proposed use). Drive-In Facilities (LDC Chapter 58 Part 4E) All Drive-in Facilities shall provide on-site waiting areas for vehicles awaiting drive-in service, in accordance with the following standards: Location - Ordering areas shall provide convenient or continuous access to the drive-in facility, and must be located at or before any speaker box or the like, if included in the Drive-in Facility. By-Pass Aisle - Is required. Design - All waiting spaces, aisles and other related vehicular use areas must be designed in accordance with the applicable off-street parking design requirements of LDC Chapter 61, Part 3.

(f) Other uses: As determined by the Zoning Official. The following additional drive-in criteria are provided, with staff responses following, in italics: Any Drive-in Facility located along an arterial street shall be subject to the unified access and circulation requirements of LDC Chapter 61, Part 1. The parcel in question fronts on Millenia Blvd., which is a collector roadway per the City s Revised Thoroughfare Plan. However, unified access and circulation is being provided within the overall Gardens on Millenia develop ment site. The subject use will not have a direct curbcut onto Millenia Blvd. but will have access via a side street (Power Center Ln.), which connects to Millenia Blvd. and also to other retail uses within Gardens on Millenia. All speaker boxes located within 300 ft. of any residential use shall be oriented away from the residential use. The nearest residential use (multi-family) is located +280 ft. to the south, across Millenia Blvd. The speaker box for the restaurant will be located on the north side of the building, with the building and roadway noise blocking any speaker noise. All Drive-in Facilities shall be so located and designed that they will not create a traffic hazard or nuisance in relation to similar uses, buildings or proposed buildings on or adjacent to the building site, and the traffic patterns from such uses or buildings. In addition, Drive-in Facilities shall be so located and designed as to minimize turning movements in relation to their driveway access to streets and intersections, and to minimize turning movements across sidewalks and pedestrian access ways, which may disrupt pedestrian circulation within activity centers. The site plan for the proposed restaurant with drive-through has gone through many iterations, all geared toward elimination of pedestrian/traffic conflicts. The restaurant is being located on its own parcel and is designed to not create traffic hazards or nuisances relative to adjacent uses (retail uses to the north and an elementary school to the east). Transportation As previously noted, vehicular access to the proposed restaurant with drive-through will be from Power Center Dr., which is accessed from Millenia Blvd., with additional access to other parts of the overall Gardens on Millenia property via Gardens Ridge Way. Per the approved Gardens on Millenia master plan, minimum 5 ft. wide sidewalks are required parallel to all streets and an interior sidewalk needs to be extended from the proposed restaurant southward, across the front drive aisle, to connect to Millenia Blvd. Parking. A minimum 21 spaces are required, per Table 3 at right, with 57 spaces proposed. The site is also required to provide no less than five (5) short-term bicycle parking spaces, with location to be verified during permitting of the project. Transportation Impact Fees. A Transportation Impact Fee of $176, will be due at the Ratio - Min./Max. (spaces per 1,000 sq. ft. of gross floor area (GFA)) Table 3 - Parking Requirements (per LDC Section , Figure 27)) Restaurant - min. 5 sp. / 1000 sq. ft. GFA; max. 20 sp./1000 sq. ft. GFA Area (sq. ft.) Required Spaces (min./max.) Proposed Spaces ±4, / time of building permit issuance, subject to change upon final permit plan review. Any additional impact fees will also be due at time of building permit issuance. Urban Design/Phasing The subject parcel is vacant and ready for development. The overall Gardens on Millenia site is being developed on a parcel by parcel basis, with this parcel and a similarly sized parcel to the west being the next to last pieces of the overall development site. The applicant provided building elevations and a landscape plan (see pages 9 & 10). Landscaping. Per the AC-1 zoning, the overall site impervious surface ratio (ISR) must not exceed 85% (is proposed to be 84%). Required perimeter landscaping for the proposed restaurant site is shown in Table 4 (on the following page) and will be installed per LDC Sections &

6 Page 6 Signage. All signs must be consistent with LDC Sections &.202, General Sign Standards. Based on building frontages on three streets, the proposed restaurant with drive-through will be allowed ±260 sq. ft. of total sign area. A sign master plan was approved as part of the Gardens on Millenia development in 2014 (see LDC ). Per the approved master plan, the proposed restaurant with drive-through is allowed a monument sign not to exceed 8 ft. in height and maximum 37.5 sq. ft. per sign face. All signs must be issued a building permit prior to fabrication and installation. Table 6 - Landscaping Requirements - LDC Section Yard Landscaping - Minimum ; Proposed Front (Milllenia Blvd.) East Side (Elem. School) West Side (Power Ctr.

A dumpster to serve the proposed restaurant use is shown at the northwest corner of the lot, where it can be readily accessed by solid waste trucks without interfering with the ingress and egress. The dumpster will be in a corral/enclosure matching the materials being used for the restaurant, with landscaping around said enclosure. School Impacts The proposed restaurant with drive-through will be a non-residential use. No further school concurrency/capacity analysis is needed.
