Staff presented report to include the City welcoming Public participation, specific standards of
notification, courtesy notices vs required notifications, State standards (the City exceeds the

Facility (MGF) and associated improvements,to include new entrance features, a new restroom
facility, associated parking, utilities and concrete promenade located at 7920 Orange Avenue
(Parcel#24-37-23-CG-P).
Department: Community Development(CD)
Applicant/Owner: City of Cape Canaveral
Summary: This application is for site plan approval for the development of a two-story,23,837
square-foot MGF and associated improvements to include entrance features, a new restroom
facility, associated parking, utilities and concrete promenade located at 7920 Orange Avenue.
The subject parcel is owned by the City of Cape Canaveral, is 5.0 acres in size and is zoned R-
2. The proposed use is consistent and permitted in the R-2 zoning district. The Comprehensive
Plan Future Land Use designation for the parcel is Public/Recreation.
Zoning surrounding the parcel is R-2. Land use surrounding the parcel consists of single and
multi-family structures, to include two-story structures to the north and east. Adequate public
utilities to meet the demands of the proposed improvements are located on/adjacent to the parcel.
The project will be constructed over several phases. The initial phase, includes the
demolition/removal of an existing clay ball field and concrete pads and construction of the MGF
and associated improvements, to include entrance features, a new restroom facility, utilities, a
concrete promenade and landscaping.Future phases,which may include a splash pad,skate park
and playground expansion(s), are indicated on the site plan as well.
The proposed improvements, shown on plan sheets C-101 and 102, are consistent with
minimum setbacks and dimensional requirements associated with the R-2 zoning district. The
application shows a total of 112 parking spaces. The proposed structure has a median height of
32 feet, which is under the allowed 35 feet.
The parcel is located in Flood Zone X, which indicates that the parcel is outside the 100-year
flood zone. There are no jurisdictional wetlands on-site.The project, as designed, denotes a 6.52
percent impervious surface, under the allowed 35 percent.
As required by Section 110-221(1) of the City Code, any new commercial development must
submit an application for Site Plan Approval and be approved prior to its construction. Section
110-223 establishes the process that must be followed. In general, the application is first
reviewed by the various City review departments to determine its consistency with applicable
rules and regulations. The application is then considered by the Planning and Zoning Board and
a written recommendation is forwarded to the CD Director for a final decision.
Section 110-222 of the City Code establishes criteria that must be addressed by the Site Plan
Application package. Attached is a Site Plan Checklist (Attachment 2) that inventories the
submittal's consistency with these criteria.

Sections 110-567 and 110-686 and 687 of the City Code establishes landscaping requirements
that the project will be required to meet. Notably, standards for tree planting throughout the
parking area and around the perimeter of the project. The landscaping plan, which is consistent
with or exceeds minimum standards, is shown in the site plan set on pages L-104 and 105.

provider as indicated on page C-105 of the site plan set. Stormwater will be treated via a series
of swales and retention facilities as indicated on pages C-103 and 104.

applicable. However, many of the Overlay design standards were incorporated into the overall
project. See below:

repetitive architectural detailing to maintain visual organization on the building's
facade.

visual interest, and complement the community vision for architectural style of the

differentiated from the rest of the building facade with treatments such as change

remainder of the wall area may incorporate other materials.
Sec. 110-669. - Surface parking.
1. Locate surface parking in the rear or side of buildings and provide pedestrian access
from the parking to the building and street. However, due to the nature of certain
uses, the director of community development or designee may approve up to one
row of parking between the front of a building and street.

SUBJECT: Multi-Generational Center Review Comments
The following review comments reflect construction drawings dated April 5, 2019 and received
for review on May 30, 2019. In general, these site plans look good with minor items considered.
1. The east side building swale system on Sheet C-104 is not in agreement with Sheet C-103.
On Sheet C-103 will bio-swale plantings be considered within low(6.5 elev.) areas? Also,
Sheet C-104, and L-107 do not agree with C-103, as they have different shapes.
2. Sheet C-103: Will garbage bin drain out the side, or back with weep holes (currently sloped
to back)?
3. Sheet C-103: The 3 stairs along east side of building; is there pavement proposed on top of
stairs?
4. Do we know how long new sod in splash area will be before splash area constructed? Also,
will any hardening of discharge edge of splash pad to swale be considered?
5. Will the eastern swale along the building have any overflow for major storm runoff, other
than the northern Type E structure? Also,the permeabilities (although tested at 4'-5') appear
very slow (i.e., 3"-5"per hour).
6. Minor cadd items: Harrison avenue misspelled on C-102, C-104, L-102. Also, what is
symbol LO—solar lights? On Page 101 "ARK" missing P.
7. Is restroom finish floor at 8.15 high enough? History of coaching at this field showed slow
drainage. Also, can 6" sewer line slope to existing line? Note dugout finished floor.
8. Sheet C-103; other than promenade walk, are any other sidewalks going to have vehicles, and
if so, would 6"thick segments be considered for them? Thinking mostly about C-104.
9. The proposed temporary grade across the future splash pad is about 0.4%. With grass, this
will not drain well an may be a damp area until splash pad is constructed.
10. Sheet C-704: What is the Lease Parcel (4.04+/- acres). Also, Harrison Avenue misspelled in
site plan (minor cadd).
11. Sheet L-101: Might check proposed trees against book titled Stormscaping (Florida
Gardening series,Vol. 3). This ties to your current Hurricane programs.

May 31,2019
Follow up comments from review on November 17, 2018, not answered:
12. Sheet C-001: erosion note 5; do we want to cover overnight stockpiles?
13. Sheet CD-100:
a. Will construction fence (and construction access be noted or shown on plan?
b. Will little league fence be temporarily removed to allow construction of swale?
c. Have not seen architectural plans for archway vertical clearances.
14. It is understood that a drinking fountain around the splash pad may be added later.
