8 CONTEXT OF PROPOSED CHANGE This privately initiated, small scale plan amendment proposes to change two existing parcels, one approximately 6.76 acre parcel, designated Light Industrial (LI), and a smaller 0.88 acre designated Heavy Industrial (HI) to the Regional Mixed Use-100 Future Land Use category. Existing Land Uses and Typical Development in the Surrounding Area The subject site is the former People s Gas site, located at 1400 Channelside Drive. The site is currently being utilized for storage and some limited operations. The subject site is c lassified as utility (aqua) by the Hillsborough County Property Appraiser. The surrounding area contains a mixture uses, ranging from light commercial (pink), heavy commercial (red), light industrial (light grey), and heavy industrial (dark grey) uses. Multi-family residential uses, including the Tampa Park Apartments to the northwest of the subject site, are shown as brown. Public/Semi Public uses, including Port Tampa Bay and Hillsborough County Expressway Authority property are shown in blue. Significant transportation related infrastructure is present within proximity to the subject site. A portion of the Lee Roy Selmon Expressway runs above the southern parcel while the associated Express Lanes run between the two parcels along the Adamo Drive/12 th Street right-of-way. CSX railroad right-ofway, associated with Union Station, is located directly to the west of the subject site. The TECO Streetcar Line runs adjacent to the subject site within the Channelside Drive right-of-way. Future Land Uses The surrounding area contains a mixture of Future Land Use categories. A large portion of the subject site and properties to the southwest, including portions of the CSX rail yard associated with Union Station are designated Light Industrial (grey). Properties to the south and east contain a mixture of Heavy Industrial (dark grey) and Regional Mixed Use-100 (dark pink) Future Land Use categories. Regional Mixed Use-100 allows consideration for high-rise residential, major office, and regional serving commercial developments. Community Mixed Use-35 (pink), allows consideration for general commercial, service, office, and residential uses can be found to the east and west of the subject site. Numerous properties located to the north are designated Community Commercial-35 (red). Tampa: CPA North Channelside Drive Page 2 of 45 Planning Commission Staff Report

11 Infill and Redevelopment Objective 46.4: Encourage downtown revitalization, urban redevelopment, and infill development in a manner that supports the city form concepts articulated in the Comprehensive Plan, is consistent with objectives to provide adequate delivery of multimodal transportation system options, and mitigates adverse traffic impacts to neighborhoods. Policy : The purpose of the Downtown Revitalization TCEA District is to encourage the highest intensity and density of development within and adjacent to the City s Central Business District in a compact, mutually supportive mixed use pattern where existing and planned multimodal transportation facilities and service can be maximized. Development review and transportation mitigation procedures within the Downtown Revitalization District shall consider the following elements: A traffic impact analysis completed pursuant to standards adopted in the City s Land Development Code; Mitigation of the health, safety, and general welfare impacts of development site traffic consistent with the City s Land Development Code; and; Adherence to applicable overlay zoning and/or urban design guidelines or standards stipulated in the City s Land Development Code. Development within the Downtown Revitalization TCEA District shall be exempt from specific roadway system mitigation requirements and shall mitigate transportation impacts through the City s transportation impact fee ordinance or comparable Review Criteria for Plan Amendment Requests In considering a plan amendment, City Council shall review the following criteria: 1. The requested land use category meets the intent of the general character description of the City Form component in which it is being requested and is otherwise consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. 2. In approving any request for a land use category that provides for an increase in density, intensity or for a broader range of uses, than the existing land use category, City Council shall determine whether: a) a land use category of similar density or intensity is located on at least one (1) side of the subject site, and b) the subject site is within 1320 (1/4 mile) of a designated transit station or designated transit corridor, and c) if the subject parcel is located adjacent to a parcel which has a land use classification of R-6 or R-10, the subject site is located within 660 (1/8 mile) of a designated transit station or designated transit corridor. 3. In the event that City Council determines that the above criteria are not met, then City Council may deny the amendment or make a determination that the existing land use classification is no longer in the best interests of the public. In this event, then City Council may approve the amendment or direct the local planning agency to propose an alternative amendment to the existing land use classification. 4. If a land use is changed based on this criteria, the property owner shall process through a site plan district and, if provided for in the City s land development regulations, shall meet the Development Performance Incentive Criteria, unless the development is w ithin an approved Community Planning Area/Adopted Form Based Code Area, in which case a site plan zoning may not be required, as provided for in the specific plan in the land development regulations. STAFF ANALYSIS The approximate 7.64 acre subject site is the former People s Gas site. For over 100 years, the site has been used for industrial purposes serving the adjacent rail yard and the nearby Port of Tampa. The site has historically been defined by adjacent transportation infrastructure. Currently, the site is boarded by a CSX Railroad right-of-way along the western property boundary. A railroad right-of-way used to run through the middle of the subject site, Tampa: CPA North Channelside Drive Page 5 of 45 Planning Commission Staff Report

12 along the present Adamo Drive/12th Street right-of-way. Rail was also located on the southern property boundary, currently where the Lee Roy Selmon Expressway is located. One of the long term goals of the Comprehensive Plan is to provide additional density and intensity within proximity to Downtown Tampa and the significant infrastructure investments that have been placed to serve the City s core (Policies 7.1.1, 7.1.3). The subject site is located within the boundaries of the Downtown Revitalization TCEA, Downtown CRA and the Central Business District Periphery Bonus Area. These areas are identified as areas where redevelopment is encouraged due to the proximity of the Central Business District (Policy ). The plan amendment site is located relatively proximate to the Ybor City Local Historic District. The boundary of the local historic district bisects the roundabout located to the north of the subject site and then continues to move east, away from the subject site, and turns south along 15 th Street, about two blocks east of the subject site. The National Historic District, at its closest point, comes within two blocks of the plan amendment site on the north side at East 5 th Avenue. Issues that may be related to design and sensitivity to surrounding development should be adressed through the rezoning process. During the rezoning process, the development should be assessed as to its relationship to the surrounding development pattern with flexibility taken into consideration due to the unique nature of the plan amendment site (Policies , ). Significant transit investment has also occurred within proximity to the plan amendment site. The TECO Streetcar Line, which connects Downtown Tampa to Ybor City, runs adjacent to the subject site along Channelside Drive. Also, a number of transit routes run within proximity to the subject site. HART Routes 8 and 46 also run adjacent to the subject site along Channelside Drive, providing connections between Downtown Tampa, the Westfield Brandon Mall, and the neighborhoods of Palmetto Beach, Progress Village and South Brandon. Additional transit is available in proximity to the subject site along Nick Nuccio Parkway as HART Routes 9 and 12 provide connections between Downtown Tampa and the University Area, including the University Mall and the University of South Florida. The Comprehensive Plan encourages additional density and intensity within areas served by transit. (Policy ) Over the years, Downtown Tampa has grown in size. A hundred years ago, downtown Tampa was mostly centered north of Kennedy Boulevard with it s spine located along Franklin Street. Industrial uses and associated rail lines were not only located throughout the Channel District but also south of Whiting Street and where Curtis Hixon Park presently exists. As downtown grew and the Port of Tampa continued its growth south of Garrison Channel, along the east side of the bay, these industrial uses made way for office buildings, hotels and other downtown-related uses. The Channel District continued this evolution as warehouse uses related to the Port made way to mid and high-rise apartment and condominiums. Overall, the proposed Regional Mixed Use-100 Future Land Use category provides the opportunity for a more appropriate use of the plan amendment site in keeping with the long term transition to higher density residential and mixed use development. The Regional Mixed Use-100 designation for this plan amendment site is a lynchpin, creating a viable urban neighborhood that bridges the gap between Downtown Tampa and the historic Ybor City neighborhood. Increased density and intensity on the site provides an opportunity to not only support the transit investment made within proximity to the subject site but will also provide additional opportunities for residential development that potentially will become future patrons to those businesses located within the Ybor City Historic District, Channel District and Downtown Tampa. Agency Comments (See Attachment B) City of Tampa Land Development Coordination staff has objections to the proposed plan amendment due to the subject site s proximity to the Ybor City Historical District and the potential for a development pattern that would not be compatible with the scale and context of the Ybor City neighborhood. Hillsborough County Public Schools has concern that the elementary and high schools serving the proposed amendment do not appear to have capacity at the current time. All of the schools are projected to have capacity in the next five years. Tampa: CPA North Channelside Drive Page 6 of 45 Planning Commission Staff Report

13 RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the Planning Commission find the proposed land use designation change for Tampa Plan Amendment TA/CPA from Light Industrial (LI) and Heavy Industrial (HI) to Regional Mixed Use-100 CONSISTENT with the Tampa Comprehensive Plan and forward this recommendation to Tampa City Council.

27 CITY OF TAMPA Bob Buckhorn, Mayor Growth Management & Development Services MEMORANDUM TO: CC: FROM: LaChone Dock, Urban Planner I Gloria Moreda, Zoning Administrator Catherine Coyle, Planning Manager Abbye Feeley, Planning & Development Coordinator Mary Samaniego, Urban Planner II DATE: March 30, 2015 SUBJECT: Comprehensive Plan Amendment Review (Small Scale) I. Overview TA/CPA15-01 (Palma Ceia West) Existing Land Use: Requested Land Use: Light Industrial (LI) Regional Mixed use-100 (RMU-100) The subject property consists of one parcel totaling 7.31 acres located at 1400 North Channelside Drive and 717 North 12th Street. The property is currently zoned Industrial-General (IG) and Industrial Heavy (IH), which are the two industrial zoning districts in the City. The subject property is adjacent to commercial uses to the east and north, an active railway to the west, and light industrial uses to the south across the Crosstown Expressway. The character of the surrounding neighborhood is primarily commercial and industrial with multifamily on the periphery. Please see Attachment A for additional information concerning the Light Industrial Land Use Category. II. Existing Future Land Use Designation The current Future Land Use designation of Light Industrial (LI) allows for commercial and industrial zoning districts including CN commercial-neighborhood, CG commercial-general, CI commercial-intensive and IG industrial-general. The commercial districts provide for various retail sales, personal services, office and institutional uses, accessory uses as appropriate thereto and compatible supporting uses, as well as selected special uses, all at appropriate intensities and in locations in accordance with the Tampa Comprehensive Plan. The IG district provides primarily for areas of light manufacturing, wholesaling, warehousing, assembly or product processing, heavy equipment and vehicular repairs and other light industrial uses. The industrial general district is established to provide areas for industry in locations, which are served by major transportation facilities and adequate utilities, but are not feasible nor highly desirable for heavier industrial development because of proximity to residential, recreational, commercial or related developments. The district is to permit development compatible with uses of residential property adjoining or surrounding the district, with suitable open spaces,

28 landscaping and parking area, which emits limited noise, odors, or light which can be detected on surrounding land. III. Proposed Future Land Use Designation The proposed future land use category of Regional Mixed Use-100 (RMU-100) would allow for the consideration of any of the allowable zoning districts from residential through commercial. The most intensive development could occur with the CI commercial-intensive zoning district which provides for intense commercial activity, permitting heavy commercial and service uses. The maximum FAR for the CI district is 1.5 (with parking structure). F or residential development the most intensive zoning district is RM-75 residential multiple-family. This district provides primarily for high density multiple-family residential development. Such high density residential structures shall be located in close proximity to regional shopping, employment and public transportation opportunities. T he RM-75 zoning district has a maximum density of 75 dwelling units per acre. It is important to review the current request in relation to those uses currently permitted and the intensification of the property that could occur if the future land use designation is changed to the RMU-100. IV. Evaluation of Historic Development Pattern The long establish development pattern in this immediate area is varying types of commercial and industrial uses. The Crosstown Expressway and the active railroad form distinct boundary to the south and west respectively. The Ybor City historic community area is to the direct north and east of the subject property while the Channelside District is further to the south cross the Crosstown Expressway. This specific area does not fall within an urban village or an overlay zoning district as far as specific development direction. Therefore, the appropriate development direction would be to steer this area to be a link between the Channelside District and the historic Ybor City community. However, because of the boundaries created by the Crosstown Expressway and the railroad, greater compatibility to the Ybor City District should be encouraged as far as scale and density when compared to the Channelside District character and development standards. The RMU-100 category states that the maximum height is the Ybor District should be 70 feet which is approximately 6-stories. The development potential for this site at the allowable density and intensity of the RMU-100 land use category (100 du/a and 3.5 FAR) is not compatible with the scale and context of the Ybor City historic community.

29 Regional Mixed Use City Form Guidelines (Chapter 3, Page 139) Key city form characteristics for Regional Mixed Use include: A mix of low-, mid- and high-rise buildings (5 to 24 stories) that creates a varied and defined skyline ; (Building height in local historic districts should be limited to 100 feet unless approved by the ARC. Maximum height in Ybor Historic District should be limited to 70 feet unless approved by the Barrio) Building heights that step down to not more than one story higher at the property line than permitted in the adjacent neighborhood unless separated by a roadway, rail corridor, or other setback or buffer; Buildings that are sited to positively define the public streetscape and civic spaces; Building facades and entrances that directly address the street and have a high degree of transparency on street-fronting facades; An interconnected street system that provides greater distribution of traffic and route flexibility; Vertical and horizontal integration of residential uses; Public parks and open space areas within walking distance of local residents; Parking that is integrated into buildings or placed in separate structures; Minimal or no curb cuts along primary street facades, with side or rear access to parking and service functions; Broad sidewalks with appropriate pedestrian amenities/facilities; Street design that integrates safe pedestrian, bicycle, transit and vehicular use and incorporates traffic-calming features and on-street parking; and Consistent planting of street trees that provide shade and enhance character and identity. Areawide mix of uses 50% residential, 75% non-residential. Regional Mixed Use Development Standards This designation provides for high density/intensity single-use commercial or residential development or horizontal and vertical mixed-use development that includes: Retail, service, office, and/or residential uses; Gathering places such as a plaza, courtyard, or park; High density residential (by either density or the floor area ratio (FAR), whichever calculation is more beneficial to the development); Professional office; General and Intensive Commercial development; Compatible public, quasi-public, and special uses; Lot coverage that generally does not exceed 90 percent; Maximum Density Units/Net Acre; Maximum FAR 3.5 FAR (mixed use preferred). V. Review Criteria for Plan Amendment Requests City Council must consider the following criteria as set forth in the City of Tampa Comprehensive Plan when deciding the request for a Comprehensive Plan Amendment; both staff s professional opinion and factual information is provided in bold-italics below: 1. The requested land use category meets the intent of the general character description of the City Form component in which it is being requested and is otherwise consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. Per the Comprehensive Plan excerpts provided below, What is Tampa s specific City Form? (Chapter 3, Pages 49 50), the proposed future land use 3

30 change does meet the intent of the City Form for this area east of the Tampa International Airport. What is Tampa s specific City Form? (Chapter 3, Pages 49 50) Tampa s form is and will continue to be shaped by historical development patterns. The City has developed over the span of 150 years, and is influenced by the building patterns that occurred during three significant periods of time as described below. In general, Tampa has developed and redeveloped as an urban city, with a defined urban core, regional and community centers, and established residential neighborhoods. As an urban city, Tampa has a defined city form that encompasses many components, such as business centers, urban villages, mixed-use corridor villages, transit stations and neighborhoods. The growth management strategy established in this Plan focuses on establishing sustainable and livable environments in areas with diverse needs. This will require sustained efforts to improve the mix of land uses. The sustainability and livability of Tampa s city form relating to future growth and further redevelopment relies heavily on the natural evolution of all of the city form components, coupled with survival and protection of the established residential neighborhoods. 2. In approving any request for a land use category that provides for an increase in density, intensity or for a broader range of uses, than the existing land use category, City Council shall determine whether: a. a land use category of similar density or intensity is located on at least one (1) side of the subject site, and There is Regional Mixed Use-100 land use category to the east of the site. b. the subject site is within 1320 (1/4 mile) of a d esignated transit station or designated transit corridor, and The Crosstown Expressway is a Transit Emphasis Corridor and Chanelside Drive is a Primary Transit Corridor. c. if the subject parcel is located adjacent to a parcel which has a land use classification of R-6 or R-10, the subject site is located within 660 (1/8 mile) of a designated transit station or designated transit corridor. N/A 3. In the event that City Council determines that the above criteria are not met, then City Council may deny the amendment or make a determination that the existing land use classification is no longer in the best interests of the public. In this event, then City Council may approve the amendment or direct the local planning agency to propose an alternative amendment to the existing land use classification. Based on the historical development pattern of the area and the location of the subject parcel in relation to the Ybor City district, staff believes that the transition to the RMU-100 land use category is not in the best interest of this area and the City as a whole. The long establish development pattern in this immediate area is varying types of commercial and industrial uses. The Crosstown Expressway and the active railroad form distinct boundary to the south and west respectively. The Ybor City historic community area is to the direct north and east of the subject property while the Channelside District is further to the south cross the Crosstown Expressway. This specific area does not fall within an urban village or an overlay zoning district as far as specific development direction. Therefore, the appropriate development 4

31 direction would be to steer this area to be a link between the Channelside District and the historic Ybor City community. However, because of the boundaries created by the Crosstown Expressway and the railroad, greater compatibility to the Ybor City District should be encouraged as far as scale and density when compared to the Channelside District character and development standards. The RMU-100 category states that the maximum height is the Ybor District should be 70 feet which is approximately 6-stories. The development potential for this site at the allowable density and intensity of the RMU-100 land use category (100 du/a and 3.5 FAR) is not compatible with the scale and context of the Ybor City historic community. 4. If a land use is changed based on this criteria, the property owner shall process through a site plan district and, if provided for in the City s land development regulations, shall meet the Development Performance Incentive Criteria, unless the development is within an approved Community Planning Area/Adopted Form Based Code Area, in which case a site plan zoning may not be required, as provided for in the specific plan in the land development regulations. 5

32 Attachment A Industrial Land Use Categories (Chapter 3, pg. 147) Industrial lands promote the City s position as a major regional employment center through continuation of existing operations, promotion of new industries, and improvements in job accessibility. They provide for the continued growth of the City s existing businesses. These plan categories provide for new manufacturing, research and development, flex space, industry incubators, professional office, and similar uses that range from high intensity, mixed use office parks, large business parks, warehousing, and distribution facilities to manufacturing and other heavy industrial areas. The potential for Clean industries in the twenty first century can be encouraged that feature light manufacturing, research and development, and high technology uses in business parks and other sites with attractive architecture and landscaping to take advantage of the education and skills of the City s existing and future population. Policies throughout the Tampa Comprehensive Plan promote improvements to make all employment areas accessible to pedestrians, bicyclists, and transit and encourage the integration of additional employment support uses such as retail, services, and in some cases, mixed-use residential areas. Light Industrial City Form Guidelines (Chapter 3, Pg. 148) Key city form characteristics for Light Industrial include: Building heights that generally range from 1 to 5 stories; Lot coverage that generally does not exceed 60 percent; Building entrances oriented to the primary street frontage rather than to parking areas; Sidewalks along all streets to accommodate pedestrian movement, with connecting walkways from sidewalks into individual sites; Bicycle lanes along key roadways; Transit stops near business park entries; Location of surface parking behind or to the side of buildings rather than between primary street and primary street facade; Transit stops within office parks; Location of outdoor storage and production yards so that they are screened from public view by buildings, fencing and/or landscaping; and Easily accessible support uses. Light Industrial Development Standards (LI) This designation provides for employment generating uses that generally do not produce loud noise or noxious odor including: Light manufacturing, heavy repairs and workshops in various types of processing; Research Corporate Parks; Flex-space (industrial structures converting to office or research and design uses) ; Office uses; General and intensive commercial uses; Compatible public, quasi-public, and special uses; Maximum FAR 1.5 FAR. 6

33 Wastewater Department Memo To: LaChone Dock From: Jeff Hilton, P.E. Date: March 25, 2015 Re: 2015 Plan Amendment Submittals The City of Tampa s Wastewater Department has reviewed the 2015 Plan Amendment Submittals and provides the following responses: TA CPA With the current land use for this property, the estimated wastewater generated from the parcels is 26,750 Gallons per Day (GPD). Based on the potential build-out allowed under the proposed land use category, the estimated wastewater generated from the parcels will be 45,750 GPD, which results in a 19,000 GPD increase in wastewater flow. The wastewater generated from the parcels will discharge into the Interbay. The current available capacity for this district is 28.8 Million Gallons per Day. The proposed amendment will not impact the level of service established in the Wastewater Element of the City s Comprehensive plan. There is adequate capacity in the existing six (6) inch sanitary force main located in North Rocky Point Drive for the potential build-out of the parcel for the parcel. TA CPA With the current land use for this property, the estimated wastewater generated from these parcels is 1,500 Gallons per Day (GPD). Based on the potential build-out allowed under the proposed land use category, the estimated wastewater generated from the parcels will be 182,750 GPD, which results in a 254,350 GPD increase in wastewater flow. The wastewater generated from the parcels will discharge into the Main Outlet. The current available capacity for this district is 27.5 Million Gallons per Day. The proposed amendment will not impact the level of service established in the Wastewater Element of the City s Comprehensive plan. There is adequate capacity in the existing eight (8) inch sanitary gravity line located in North Channelside Drive and East 2 nd Avenue for the potential build-out of the parcel for the parcel Page 1

34 at 1400 North Channelside Drive. The developer will need to construct adequate sewer at the parcel at 717 North 12 th Street. TA CPA The Wastewater Department has no objections to the Text Amendment Request. TA CPA With the current land use for this property, the estimated wastewater generated from the parcels is 416,250 Gallons per Day (GPD). Based on the potential build-out allowed under the proposed land use category, the estimated wastewater generated from the parcels will be 758,750 GPD, which results in a 342,500 GPD increase in wastewater flow. The wastewater generated from the parcels will discharge into the West River. The current available capacity for this district is 47.7 Million Gallons per Day. The proposed amendment will not impact the level of service established in the Wastewater Element of the City s Comprehensive plan. There is adequate capacity in the existing sixty (60) inch sanitary gravity line located along the Hillsborough River for the potential build-out of the parcel. TA CPA Estimated wastewater generated from the parcels would remain essentially unchanged. There is adequate capacity in the existing sewer system in this area. Page 2

35 CITY OF TAMPA Transportation and Stormwater Services Department Stormwater Engineering Memorandum To: From: CC: Randy Goers Michael Miller Alexander Awad Al Hoel Date: March 18, 2015 Subject: Comprehensive Plan Amendment TA/CPA The Stormwater Engineering Division has been requested to review and comment on the proposed comprehensive plan amendment TA/CPA received March 16, 2015 for the properties at 1400 North Channelside Drive and 717 North 12 th Street in the City of Tampa. This is a privately-initiated plan amendment consisting of two platted parcels located on the southeast corner of N. 12th Street and E. Adamo Drive. The site lies just to the west of Channelside Drive and is presently used for office and open storage.. The applicant is requesting a land use plan amendment for a total of 7.31± acres from Light and Heavy Industrial (LI & HI) to Regional Mixed Use 100 (RMU-100). This amendment will allow a potential of 664 dwelling units and a maximum of 1, 012,334 square feet of commercial, office or residential use. The plan amendment summary document has been reviewed and the LOS for the Parcel has been evaluated. The department s comments are as follows: The stormwater runoff from the subject property is serviced by a system of ditches and pipes owned and maintained by the City of Tampa and located within the Adamo Drive right-of-way and along the southern property line of Folio The existing drainage system is presently at capacity and some flooding has occurred in the vicinity. Because the northern parcel, Folio # , is almost entirely impervious in its present state, additional runoff would not be expected to the system. Development of these properties must comply with all appropriate requirements for treatment and attenuation of stormwater runoff as outlined in the Stormwater Technical Standards. The Stormwater Division has no objections to this amendment. The Transportation Department has no objections.

37 MEMORANDUM To: Tony LaColla, AICP From: Amber K. Wheeler, AICP Department Manager, Planning & Siting Date: March 31, 2015 Re: City of Tampa Comprehensive Plan Amendment CPA Amendment would convert a 7.31 acre parcel from Light Industrial (LI) and Heavy Industrial (HI) to Regional Mixed Use (RMU-100). Up to 731 multi-family dwelling units could potentially be developed on the site. Based on adopted Student Generation Rates the amendment could potentially generate 93 students in the kindergarten through 5 th grade level, 47 students at the 6 th through 8 th grade level, and 48 students at the high school level. The elementary and high schools serving the proposed amendment do not appear to have capacity at the current time. All of the schools are projected to have capacity in the next 5 years. The amendment area will be served by Just Elementary School, Madison Middle School, and Blake High School. The capacity and projected enrollments at the three schools are as follows: FISH Capacity Reserved for concurrency Students generated by amendment Enrollment Available Capacity Projected Enrollment Available Capacity School Just Elementary Madison Middle Blake High , This is a capacity review, and is not a concurrency determination. A concurrency review will take place prior the preliminary plat or site plan approval.

39 Memorandum TO: FROM: Mr. Tony LaColla, AICP Principal Planner Hillsborough County City-County Planning Commission Linda Walker, Planner II Hillsborough Area Regional Transit Authority (HART) DATE: March 20, 2015 RE: TA/CPA Future Land Use Map Change Former Peoples Gas Site HART has reviewed the proposed plan amendment to the City of Tampa Comprehensive Plan for the future land use change from Light Industrial to Regional Mixed Use-100. Existing Service Bus service to this location is provided on Route 8 (Progress Village/ Brandon) and 46 (Davis Island/ Brandon). A transit stop is located at the front of the property. The routes connect to the Downtown Tampa Marion Transit Center and the Westfield-Brandon Transfer Center providing connection to 30 routes including routes travelling to Pinellas County and Pasco County. The TECO line Streetcar system travels on Channelside Drive connecting the Channelside District to the Downtown Esplanade/ Franklin Street Mall. The closest streetcar stop for this location is the Port Authority Station located in the vicinity of the southeast corner of McKay Street and Channelside Drive. Planned Improvements/Future Needs The major update of the HART Transit Development Plan identifies the following transit needs for Route 46. Add weekend service Increase weekday frequency Extend weekday service hours Recommended Capital Investment for Enhanced Transit Connection The proposed uses will create a need for alternative travel options on Channelside Drive and State Road 60. The following needs are identified to facilitate transit and other alternative travel modes. Internal pedestrian/ada and bike connections to the sidewalks that link to this development. Provision of additional easement for the installation of a transit shelter. The shelter could also serve as a trailhead facility connection to the Tampa Riverwalk and the MacKay Bay Trails.

Road Name From - To Number of Lanes Adopted LOS Standard Current LOS Channelside Dr. Adamo Dr. to 4 th Ave. 2U D B N. 12 th St. Channelside Dr. to E. 2U NA NA Twiggs St. The property is bordered by Channelside Dr. to the east, N. 12 th St. to the south, and the rail extension for the Tampa Train Station to the west. There is a round-a-bout connecting Channelside Dr., 4 th Ave, and Nuccio Pkwy. to the north of the property. The train track restricts access along the west, and N. 12 th St has limited access at the intersection of Channelside Dr. What is the current level of service for pedestrian and bicycle travel on roadway facilities in this area? Road Name From - To Pedestrian LOS Bicycle LOS Channelside Dr. Adamo Dr. to 4 th Ave. B C N. 12 th St. Channelside Dr. to E. Twiggs St. NA NA There is a sidewalk on both sides of Channelside Drive, but none on Adamo Drive in front of the site. The Selmon Greenway runs through this area. What is the current level of service for public transit in this area? This area is served by HART bus routes and the HART Streetcar system. Adamo Drive also is designated as a Transit Emphasis Corridor. Are there any planned or programmed improvements in the area? There are no roadway capacity improvements in this area in the current 2040 Long Range Transportation Plan or the current 5 year Transportation Improvement Program.

42 Since the potential impacts of the proposed amendment would increase allowable residential development, there would be an increase in the bicycle and pedestrian impacts. It is important to provide continuous, accessible and well maintained bike facilities as well as sidewalks and high visibility crosswalks at intersections where it is safe to cross. A Traffic Impact Study should be done for this project to identify traffic and pedestrian circulation and pedestrian issues. Are there any planned or programmed transit service or facility improvements in the area? The MPO s current adopted 2040 Long Range Transportation Plan (LRTP) identifies a need for transit improvements in this area, recommending expanded bus route service and Fixed Guideway rail service. Is the property located in an area where the population is particularly reliant on public and/or non-motorized transportation modes? This area is not identified in the MPO s Demographic Analysis for Environmental Justice Purposes as an area having a high density of minority populations. What is the impact of the proposed plan amendment? The proposal is to change approximately 7.31 acres of Light Industrial (LI) to Regional Mixed Use-100. Existing Scenario Maximum Buildout: Light Industrial Existing Category Avg Pk Hr Dir Trips 7.31 Acres of General Light Industrial (ITE 110) 50 Proposed Scenario Maximum Buildout: CMU-100 Proposed Category Avg Pk Hr Dir Trips 798 dwelling units of Apartments (ITE 222) 175 or 1, ThSqFt of General Office (ITE 710) 870

43 Based upon maximum buildout scenarios, the existing land use category could generate up to 50 Average Peak Hour Peak Direction Trips. Based upon maximum buildout scenarios, the proposed land use category could generate up to 870 Average Peak Hour Peak Direction Trips.
