Recommendation to City Council Re: Proposed Ordinance No. 11-2012 - Adoption of the
A1A Economic Opportunity Overlay District.
Barry Brown stated that the Board was here tonight to review and make recommendation on the
A1A Economic Opportunity Overlay District (EOOD). He explained that last year it was
determined that the City would create an Overlay District for a specific area that encompassed
the North part of A1A and parts of Central Blvd. The Overlay District is intended to spur
economic development and job creation; support quality development; remove barriers to
preferred types of development; maximize development potential and taxable value of
properties in the district; increase potential for the types of services and uses that the residents
desire as expressed in community surveys and the Community Visioning; accommodate mixed
use development, such as a town center project; create a sense of place and identity for the
area; create architectural design standards; create an area that is more pedestrian and bicycle
friendly; and that would implement the objectives of the Community Visioning, as well as
support the objectives of the coming SR Al Multimodal Plan.
Barry Brown explained that in an effort to accomplish these things, Staff created the EOOD,
which includes: architectural design standards; allows for increased building heights; increases
of the number of hotel units per acre; revises building setbacks; enhances landscaping; and
attempts to make the EOOD area more inclusive rather than exclusive by adding new uses and
providing for a process to approve Planned Developments.
Barry Brown advised that Staff distributed a copy of the proposed EOOD, dated May 18, 2012,
to the Board members last Friday. Subsequently, Staff has made revisions. Additionally, Staff
has provided the Board members a draft process for to adopt a Planned Development (PD),
which follows the process that already exists in the Code for a Residential Planned Unit
Development (RPUD). Andre Anderson, Planning Design Group, presented the revisions.

149 Sem llQ~58D.-Purpose.
150 The purpose of these design guidelines and standards are to provide flexibility in the uses and
151 design requirements for the /\lA EO{]C\ while setting minimum design standards to fod|kote
152 quality development. These standards will guide future development and redevelopment within
153 the City of Cape Canaveral so that it creates more vital commercial cores and corridors, protects
154 adjacent residential neighborhoods and neighborhood commercial centers, promotes the use of
155 quality building materials, enhances the streetscopeon all public streets, and continues to improve
156 the image and pride inthe city.
157 Sec. 110 -589. -Goals.
158 The Al,4 Economic Opportunity Overlay District (E(}{)D) provides design guidelines and
159 standards which are intended to promote and enhance the identity of the District. Specifically, the
160 goals ofthe E(]{}0are:
Cape Canaveral EOOD DRAFT (6/01/2012) Planning Design Group Page 1 5
161 (1) To create attractive, functional, and lasting buildings and places.
162 (2) To encourage the design, construction and operation of buildings and places that are
163 environmentally responsible, sustainable and healthy places to live, work, and play.
164 (3) To promote development and redevelopment that preserves and enhances the physical
165 appearance of the corridor and contributes to the District's unique sense of place.
166 (4) To encourage the use of quality materials in development and redevelopment.
167 (5) To encourage development that adds to a pedestrian friendly retail environment and
168 contributes to the safety and comfort of both pedestrian and automobile traffic.
169 (6) To provide direction in site planning and to ensure a high degree of design quality in
170 development within the Al A EOOD through the use of Design Guidelines and Standards.
171 (7) To enhance and protect the commercial corridors and primary entrances into the City of
172 Cape Canaveral.
173 Sec. 110-590. -Objectives.
174 (1) The design guidelines and standards are intended to address the built environment within
175 the City of Cape Canaveral and to recognize aesthetic design as an integral part of the
176 planning and development process.
177 (2) The guidelines and standards are intended to ensure that the appearance of new
178 development, infill development, and redevelopment is representative of the City of Cape
179 Canaveral's Community Vision.
180 (3) The guidelines and standards will enable development to occur in a manner that is not
181 only beneficial and worthwhile for the developers and property owners, but the
182 development will also have a positive impact on the surrounding properties,
183 neighborhoods, citizens, and the entire city.
184 Sec. 110-591. - Design principles.
185 The A 1 A Economic Opportunity Overlay District (EOOD) is based upon a set of design principles.
186 These principles are:
187 (1) Consistency: The Al A Commercial corridor features a mixture of development types
188 including office buildings, hotels and convention facilities, strip -commercial centers,
189 neighborhood -serving retail, nighttime entertainment uses, attractions, and restaurants.
190 Design of these structures has been influenced by use, age, and site dimensions. Within the
191 context of these constraints, developments can achieve the principle of consistency through
192 selection of colors, exterior surface materials, scale, rhythm, proportions, landscaping and
193 sign programs.
194 (2) Activity: Active street life, which can be enhanced by design considerations, is a major
195 component of thriving pedestrian commercial districts. There are many opportunities to
196 insert options for increased street -level pedestrian activity along AIA. Through building
197 orientation, circulation, storefront design and landscaping, development can further
198 promote the principle of safe pedestrian activity.
199 (3) Pedestrian Orientation: Pedestrian orientation can be achieved through storefront
200 ornamentation, reduction of blank surfaces, building articulation, proportion, rhythm, color,
201 and texture. Guidelines and Standards based upon this principle address wall surfaces,
202 windows, awnings, signage, and architectural treatments.
203 (4) Safety: Public safety is critical to the success of a commercial district. Public safety in this
204 case refers not only to safety from criminal activity, but also creating an environment in
205 which pedestrian and automobile traffic can safely coexist. The design and development
206 of commercial centers and the public open space adjacent to them shall include
Cape Canaveral EOOD DRAFT (6/01/2012) Planning Design Group Page 1 6
207 considerations of public safety. Public safety issues can be addressed through she
208 planning considerations such as the location of parking lots, lighting, signage and
209 landscaping.
210 (5) 5 Design Guidelines and Standards for the Al/4 Economic Opportunity Overlay
211 District shall provide for public convenience by clearly identifying the nature of the
212 business and communicating points of ingress and egress for pedestrian and automobile
213 traffic. These issues can be addressed through architectural treatments as well as through
214 site planning considerations such as the location of parking lots, lighting, signage and
215 landscaping.

386 (2) Proper site planning shall promote harmony between new and existing buildings and shall
387 be sensitive tothe scale, form, height, and proportion of surrounding development. Good
388 design with complementary landscaping is o major component in creating vibrant
389 commercial areas that foster m pleasant and desirable character, pedestrian activity, and
390 economic vitality. Factors such as the size and massing of buildings, the orientation of
391 storefronts, and circulation greatly influence the quality of the pedestrian experience.
392 (3) Within the /\l/\ Economic Opportunity Overlay District site planning and design of new
393 buildings and the rehabilitation of existing buildings shall promote continuity of the historic
394 context of buildings (os shown in historic documentation) in relationship to the existing
395 pattern and scale ofstreets, sidewalks and parking. The guidelines and standards below
396 reinforce the existing historic development patterns (os shown in historic documentation)
397 and provide o site planning framework for both infill developments and rehabilitation and
398 revitalization of existing buildings.
