AIA EOOD Certification of Consistency
PDG No.: 14-009
Dear Chairperson Wasserman:
Planning Design Group (PDG) is currently under contract with the City of Cape Canaveral to provide
continuing professional planning services. This letter wit[ serve to provide documentation and
recommendation of our review of the proposed subject development.
The request before the Cape Canaveral Community Appearance Board is to consider Approval of the
proposed Sunbelt Cape Canaveral Hotel pursuant to the requirements of Chapter 22, Article Ill,
Sections 22-36 thru 22-47 and Chapter 110, Article X of the Cape Canaveral Code.
The subject property is comprised of approximately 3.54 acres with parcel id# 24-37-15-00-26, which is
located at 9000 Astronaut Bou[evard, Cape Canaveral, Florida 32920.
The request is to develop the property with a six story 153 -room hotel with associated parking,
required retention pond, and other on-site amenities in the C-2 zoning district. The subject property is
located within the Al A Economic Opportunity Overlay District and is subject to the provisions, of
Chapter 110, Article X of the Cape Canaveral Code.
I have reviewed the site plan and color rendered elevations for consistency with Chapter 110, Article X
of the Cape Canaveral Code. Please note, only the mandatory requirements of the code section were
reviewed in order to make a consistency determination. Optional components were considered, but
their omission in the site plan were not used as a basis for consistency determination.
Based on my technical expertise and qualifications as a Certified Planner, my 26 years of professional
planning experience, and my familiarity with Chapter 110, Article X as the author of that portion of the
Code, it is my qualified professional opinion that the proposed development is CONSISTENT with the
intent of the AlA Economic Opportunity Overtay District pursuant to Chapter 110, Article X of the Cape
Canaveral Code. Therefore I recommend that the Community Appearance Board APPROVE the
proposed Sunbelt Cape Canaveral Hotel.
If you have any questions, please let me know.
Sincerely,
