Ms. Anders then thanked the Board members on behalf of the committee. 6. Discussion Re: Mixed Land Use - Todd Peetz. City Planner. Todd Peetz, City Planner, advised that the Board had discussed mixed land use for the Comprehensive Plan two to three years ago. The mixed land use district was approved, but not transmitted to the Department of Community Affairs because the applicant 'vvithdrevv' their application. He explained that there is renewed interest in mixed land use districts and based on this interest, the matter is coming back to the City to possibly create a mixed land use district(s). He noted that this issue was not driven by any property owner or developer. He referenced articles and studies contained in the Board packet. Chairperson McNeely commented that the City should develop its own codes and regulations without being developer driven. John Fredrickson spoke against mixed-use. Shannon Roberts, Council Member, advised that the Business and Cultura! Development Board's survey touches on innovative ideas. She advised that the Mayor and City Manager attended a workshop recently in Winter Springs regarding mixed-use. She asked the Board to consider innovative ideas, including walking to parks and shops in a town square type environment. The Board held discussion regarding acreage of the remaining unimproved properties throughout the City where this concept might work. Todd Peetz, City Planner, advised that the City has only 106 acres of vacant land remaining that could be developed for this type of concept. Ray Osborne, citizen, advised that he knows an architect that is very familiar with mixed-use who may be willing to come in and speak to the Board and answer any questions or concerns regarding mixed- use. Discussion followed. Following discussion, Chairperson McNeely asked Todd Peetz to provide the Board with facts of where this concept is successful within a City that is two square miles, with a population of 11,000. The Board also requested direction from City Council. Planning & Zoning Board Meeting Minutes January 24, 2007 Page 6 7. Elections: Chairperson and Vice Chairperson.

The City Council at their February 6th meeting provided additional input and guidance requested by the Planning and Zoning Board re-evaluate the application of mixed land use districts in the City. Summary Explanation & Background: The Planning and Zoning Board had discussed mixed land use for the comprehensive plan two to three years ago. The mixed land use district was approved, but not transmitted to the Department of Community Affairs because the applicant withdrew their application. There is renewed interest in mixed land use districts and based on this interest this matter is coming back for the Cit'j to possibly create a mixed land use district(s).

I Exhibits Attached: , #1 Write up on Winter Park Village, #2 Write up on Baldwin Park and #3 Guidance for making community changes "neighborhood-scale planning tools to create active, livable communities". I I Planning Official's Office Department Winter Park Mall, located in the heart of Winter Park, Florida, was hailed in the 1960s as a symbol of progress. The Mall was designed to compete directly for customers with nearby Park Avenue, the City's traditional Main Street. During the 1980s and early 1990s, however, Winter Park Mall steadily declined in sales and lost tenants, while Park A venue maintained its vitality and grew stronger. Park A venue is now known as "the Main Street that killed the Mall." In 1997, a consultant team from Dover, Kohl & Partners, Glatting Jackson, et aI., and Gibbs Planning Group devised a plan for the redevelopment of the Mall. Created on the City's behalf, this plan was worked out in consultation with the prospective developer. The developer has since constructed the first phase, transforming the Mall into the new Winter Park Village. 1 The Dead Mall Winter Park Mall was a vintage example of 1960's single-use retail planning. Its low-slung, The Mall mostly one-story structure was set in the midst of a huge unbroken expanse of asphalt. Its stores in 1997 faced inward, presenting blank wal1s to the public realm. An urgent objective during redevelopment was to establish an urban sense of place; the interior of the development in the near-tenn scenario was designed to function like a normal pali of an urban village. Shaping Public Space Even though it is focused in only a small area in the near-tenn scenario, the plan established coherent, legibly shaped public space between the buildings. The fronts ofbuildings were deliberately placed in certain locations to generate a sense of spatial enciosure. This sense of shaped public space is a constant feature of successful urban villages. 1000 1/// Redevelopment .~ F rants and Backs 3 In the plan, care was given to create a "public side" and a "private side" to each building site, wherever possible. This is because, in the real world, buildings do have fronts and backs. The fronts are for things like doors and storefronts; Long Term the backs are for loading and mechanical rooms and Prospects dumpsters and, where appropriate, midblock parking courts. The front side is the presentation face of the building, so it should face the streets! Jt sounds simple, but this principle is often ignored. T-nt.o-r,.'n.111..,.o0t~"f'irT thA i.1.l\..\"..I.LVVLl.ll\,...lvL.UJ5 Ll1'-' Street Network The plan showed how to reweave the circulation pattern originally intended for this area of the city. An interconnected network of streets and rationally shaped blocks is now being built. The new streets that divide the parking lots and mall site into blocks are detailed as "real street-like streets." This means they are constructed with sidewalks, street trees, on street parking and curbs, with urban cross-sections, and their intersections have pedestrian-friendly, small comer radii. Practica]]y speaking, some of these streets will function like drive aisles in parking lots during the near-term phase, but their urban appearance will have a traffic calming effect and wi]] make infi]] proposals possible.

As national physical activity levels decrease and obesity rates increase, local leaders arc looking for ways to incorporate smart growth or livable communities principles into their general plans so people can safely and conveniently walk and ride a bicycle for transportation and exercise. They arc also using these concepts to reduce congestion, air pollution and automo- bile dependence. While many communities subscribe to livable communities principles, they often encounter difficulry implementing them. All too often the broad smart growth objectives in a general plan lack the detail that is needed to guide actual development and are not translated into the zoning code. The result is development that is less compact, and less conducive to walking and bicycling than was originally envisioned.

Planning Proactively vvith Neighborhood-Scale Planning Tools The Ahwahnee Pcinciples encourage local governments co prepare neighborhood-",ale plans that refine general plan policies and plan proactively for new development. All too often, however, these neighborhood-level plans - whether specific plans, precise plans or master plans - are simply glorified versions of the broader comprehensive plans and fail to provide sufficient detail about the overall design of the community - the location and width of streets, sidewalks and parking, the location and massing of buildings, and the relation of buildings to the street and to one another. To implement smart growth concepts, these plans need to establish standards and guidelines to provide elected officials, residents and developers with a dear picture of how future development will look and feel. The process of producing a neighborhood-scale plan also provides an important opportunity to engage stakeholders in a more detail-oriented planning process. When prepared and administered effectively, neighborhood-scale planning tools can help to: D Create old-style walkable neighborhoods with nearby retail, pedestrian-friendly, shaded streets and a variety of housing types. D Ensure that large greenfield sites are developed in a coherent manner. D 1Ylake certain that new development complements and enhances the existing community. D Identi!)r and address contentious planning and design issues at the neighborhood scale.
