EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Meeting Date: November 9, 2015 Public Hearing Agenda Item: Tampa: Comprehensive Plan Amendment TA/CPA 15-07 Presenter: David Hey, Jr., AICP (extension 375) Action Necessary: Yes

SUMMARY: The Tampa Comprehensive Plan is the official document guiding the long-term development of the City of Tampa. The Planning Commission is required to make recommendations to the Tampa City Council on all proposed changes to the Tampa Comprehensive Plan pursuant to Chapter 163, Part II, Florida Statutes and Chapter 97-351, Laws of Florida as amended.

Plan Amendment TA/CPA 15-07 is a privately-initiated request to amend the Tampa Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Plan Map. The subject site consists of seven parcels, consisting of a total of 1.13± acres. The subject site is located at the northeast and southwest corners of the West Fig Street and North Oregon Avenue intersection. The request is to amend the Future Land Use Map designation from the existing Residential-20 (R-20) to Community Mixed Use-35 (CMU-35).

The subject site is located within the boundaries of the West Tampa Urban Village and is approximately one mile west of the Central Business District. Development within the surrounding area, formerly industrial in character, has been trending toward a multi-family residential area with supporting retail uses. The proposed amendment to Community Mixed Use-35 supports the continued transformation of the surrounding area into a more mixed use urban village, supportive of the Central Business District and within proximity to transit service. RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the Planning Commission find the amendment TA/CPA 15-07 CONSISTENT with the Tampa Comprehensive Plan and forward this recommendation to the Tampa City Council.

Community Mixed Use-35 for an approximately 1.13 acre subject site generally located at 405 North Oregon Avenue within the Central Tampa Planning District; and

WHEREAS, the Hillsborough County City-County Planning Commission has reviewed the proposal, has considered existing and expected future development patterns and community facilities in the respective area, as well as the adopted goals, objectives and policies of the Tampa Comprehensive Plan Building Our Legacy: A Livable City as follows:

Objective 1.1: Designate 5 planning districts: University, Central Tampa, Westshore, New Tampa and South Tampa as an opportunity to build a livable and sustainable city. Policy 1.1.11:

Encourage transit oriented, pedestrian-friendly mixed used development in the Westshore, Central Tampa and University planning districts.

Objective 7.1: The number of people living in and near downtown will continue to increase by increasing housing opportunities at all economic levels in mixed-use developments and preserving housing opportunities in neighborhoods nearby. Policy 7.1.1:

Encourage more and diverse housing opportunities for people in and around the Central Business District.

Objective 1.2: A City of diverse, distinct, and well-structured neighborhoods that meet the community’s needs for complete, sustainable, and high quality living environments from the historic downtown core to well integrated new growth areas. Policy 1.2.3:

The City shall promote the design of complete and well-structured neighborhoods whose physical layout and land use mix promote walking, biking and transit; reduce vehicle trips; foster community pride; enhance neighborhood identity; ensure public safety; and are family friendly and address the needs of all ages and abilities.

Objective 14.1: The City shall regulate the levels of building intensity according to the standards and land use designations, in order to accommodate the projected population increase of 92,800 persons and 132,300 employees by 2025.

RESOLUTION PAGE 3 Title: Tampa Comprehensive Plan TA/CPA 15-07 Future Land Use Plan Map Amendment Date of Hearing – November 9, 2015

Policy 14.1.1:

The City shall encourage compact, higher-density development that is compatible with its surrounding character.

Policy 14.1.3:

Create regulations and incentives that encourage high-quality, mixed use development at densities that will support Tampa’s diverse housing needs and public transportation alternatives.

Policy 14.1.4:

Use limited land resources more efficiently and pursue a development pattern that is more economically sound, by encouraging infill development on vacant and underutilized sites.

Objective 15.1: Support the Urban Village designations that produce a distinctive, high-quality built environment whose forms and character respect Tampa’s unique historic, environmental, and architectural context, and create memorable places that enrich community life. Policy 15.1.2: Mix of uses:

Urban villages contain most of the following uses which typically make up what is considered a traditional and livable community: single and multi-family residential, neighborhood serving commercial, schools, parks, a central gathering place, mass transit and safe, walkable pathways that connect people to all areas of the village. Work towards creating a mix and placement of these uses that works for the character of the village and creates a vibrant community setting.

Policy 15.1.3: Economic Opportunity:

Recognize that urban villages are a very livable and sustainable form of development. Continue to emphasize the compact and mixed use nature of these villages. Look for ways to make it easier to create this type of development pattern.

Policy 15.1.9: Choice of Lifestyle:

Mixed use projects that integrate different classifications of uses (e.g. commercial and residential) are preferred over single use projects, and will be incentivized.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the Hillsborough County City-County Planning Commission finds Tampa Comprehensive Plan Amendment TA/CPA 15-07 CONSISTENT with the Tampa Comprehensive Plan Building Our Legacy: A Livable City and recommends the plan amendment be forwarded to Tampa City Council for consideration.

The surrounding area contains a wide variety of land uses. Multi-family uses are represented by the brown color. Purple represents educational uses. Additional uses located within the surrounding area single family detached residential (yellow), two family residential (orange), light industrial uses (light grey), light commercial (pink), and heavy commercial (red).

Future Land Uses The surrounding area contains a mixture of Future Land Use categories. The subject site and properties to the east, south and west are designated Residential-20 (Camel). Areas to the north and east are designated General Mixed Use-24 (Light Purple). Areas to the northwest and west are designated Community Mixed Use-35 (Pink). Further to the south, located along the West Kennedy Boulevard corridor, are properties designated Urban Mixed Use-60 (Dark Purple).

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.

Tampa: CPA 15-07 (405 North Oregon Avenue) Page 5 of 26 Planning Commission Staff Report

STAFF ANALYSIS The approximate 1.13 acre subject site is the former site of the New Salem Missionary Baptist Church. For almost 100 years, the site has been used for religious assembly, serving the adjacent single family residential uses found within this portion of the City of Tampa. In early 2015, a fire destroyed the historic church building and the site is currently vacant. The surrounding area, over the past fifteen years, has been moving away from its predominantly single family and light industrial past to a more urban, mixed use neighborhood. A number of plan amendments, within proximity of the subject site, have been approved for Community Mixed Use-35 (CMU-35). Currently, the Community Mixed Use-35 Future Land Use category can be found to the west of the subject site, across North Oregon Avenue. The General Mixed Use-24 Future Land Use category can be found on parcels surrounding the site. In 2011, the City of Tampa began creating a master plan for Tampa’s Center City, spanning from downtown to Ybor City on the east, Armenia Avenue on the west and north along historic Nebraska Avenue to Hillsborough Avenue. The City of Tampa, working with the Urban Land Institute and AECOM, an international planning firm, sought public engagement to develop a holistic and comprehensive vision, not only for the Central Business District, but the entire Central City area. The InVision Plan recognizes that to develop an active 24 hour, mixed use and culturally active downtown, the surrounding neighborhoods must provide a mix of housing types and styles at varying densities. The Comprehensive Plan also promotes the redevelopment of neighborhoods surrounding the Central Business District so as to contain a mix of housing types and densities to serve all segments of the population (Policy 7.1.1). The privately owned subject site, located just under 1 mile from the Central Business District, provides a unique opportunity for redevelopment and would assist in the revitalization of the area that would further the vision outlined within the InVision Tampa Plan. The subject site is located within the boundaries of West Tampa, which is identified as an urban village in the Tampa Comprehensive Plan, due to its unique characteristics and historical significance in the development of Tampa as a City. West Tampa has a unique heritage, represented by its early beginnings as a cigar community and early home to much of Tampa’s hispanic population, becoming more diverse in later years being represented not only by Hispanics, but by African-Americans as well. It has become an area known to be rich in culture and history and proud of its diverse minority population. Overall, the proposed Community Mixed Use-35 Future Land Use category would provide for a development pattern in keeping with the long-term vision outlined within the InVision Tampa Plan and the Tampa Comprehensive Plan. Additional residential density and neighborhood scaled mixed use development would be encouraged at a more appropriate density than what is currently developed onsite. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the Planning Commission find the proposed land use designation change for Tampa Plan Amendment TA/CPA 15-07 from Residential-20 (R-20) to Community Mixed Use-35 (CMU-35) CONSISTENT with the Tampa Comprehensive Plan and forward this recommendation to Tampa City Council.

REQUEST SUMMARY CPA 15-07: Existing Land Use: Residential-20 (RES-20) Requested Land Use: Community Mixed Use-35 (CMU-35) The subject parcels contain 1.13± acres or 49,140 square feet, and is located in the general vicinity of the North Oregon Avenue and West Fig Street intersection. The subject properties are located within the West Tampa Overlay District and Urban Village. The current zoning is Residential Single Family (RS-50.) This location is part of the Central Tampa Planning District.

EXISTING FUTURE LAND USE DESIGNATION The current Future Land use designation of Residential 20 (R-20) allows for uses between lower and medium intensity uses, including: • Small-lot single family units (duplexes, condominiums, townhomes); • Multifamily dwellings; • Limited neighborhood-serving commercial uses consistent with Locational Criteria

for Neighborhood Commercial and Residential Office uses; • Compatible public, quasi-public, and special uses (for example churches, schools,

recreational and daycare facilities) are allowed consideration; • Lot coverage that generally does not exceed 65 percent; • Maximum Density 20 units/net acre; and • Intensity: FAR 0.5/2.0 in Ybor City. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES West Tampa Urban Village A distinguishing characteristic of Tampa is the presence of successful and diverse mixed neighborhoods in close proximity to each other. This variety of urban environments provides people with a choice of lifestyles, and retaining and enhancing these distinctive community characteristics will ensure that they remain vital and successful communities. Urban villages contribute to a livable City by supporting: • Diverse housing and employment growth; • Pedestrian and transit-oriented communities; • Provision of services and infrastructure targeted to support sustainable

redevelopment; and • Enhancements to the City’s cultural diversity.

Goal 15: Create a city of distinctive and memorable places.

Policy 15.1.9: Choice of Lifestyle. Mixed use projects that integrate different classifications of uses (e.g. commercial and residential) are preferred over single use projects, and will be incentivized. This site is located within the West Tampa Urban Village and the requested CMU-35 land use category is consistent with this

City of Tampa – Planning and Development Comments

policy and will allow for development which furthers the objectives and goals of this policy.

Proposed Future Land Use Designation The proposed future land use category of Community Mixed Use-35 (CMU-35) would allow for suitable mixed-use development, including general commercial, professional office, and multi-family development (by either density or floor area ration); gathering places such as a plaza, courtyard or parks; and compatible public, quasi-public and special uses. The current land use category of Res-20 will not allow for a mix of uses such as commercial and multi-family development. This site is located in the West Tampa Overlay District, the West Tampa Urban Village, and the Central Tampa Planning District which all encourage development which attracts private investment and supports commercial and mixed uses. The requested CMU-35 land use category will support these goals and promote the following city form characteristics. Key city form characteristics include: • A development pattern with moderate lot coverage limited side yard setbacks, and

buildings sited up to the corridor to create a consistent street wall; • More intense mixed-use development at intersections with stepped down residential

uses in between; • Building heights that are generally 2 to 5 stories; • Building heights that are highest at major intersections and lower when adjacent to

neighborhoods unless near a major intersection; • Lot coverage that generally does not exceed 60 percent; • Building facades and entrances that directly address the street; • Buildings with pedestrian-oriented uses such as outdoor cafes located at the street

level; • Integrated (vertical and horizontal) residential and non-residential uses along the

corridors; • Parking that is located to the side or behind buildings, or accommodated in parking

structures; • Limited number of curb cuts along arterial streets, with shared and/or rear alley

access to parking and service functions; • Attractive pedestrian streetscape with sidewalks designed to accommodate

pedestrians traffic that includes appropriate landscaping, lighting, and pedestrian amenities/facilities; and

• Public and semi-public outdoor spaces such as plaza, courtyards, and sidewalk cafes.

How the Plan Categories Work with Mixed Use Areas Mixed use categories provide for and contribute to the intensification, redevelopment, and revitalization of the City’s districts that are defined by their common functional role, mix of uses, density/intensity, physical form and character, and/or environmental settings as places for commerce, employment, entertainment, culture, and living. These areas also integrate community serving uses, such as public meeting rooms and

daycare facilities in key activity areas. The categories policies ensure that their development is consistent with adjacent neighborhoods through the siting of buildings, transitions in scale, and land use mix. This site is adjacent to a Planned Development (PD) which is bordered by Carmen and Fig Streets to the north and south and Rome and Oregon Avenues to the west and east. The PD has been developed with residential multi-family structures and the building heights do not exceed five stories. The requested CMU-35 land use category will allow for development consistent with existing uses and which would not be allowed in the Res-20 land use category. 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. 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 location of this request is within the West Tampa Urban Village and is 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 Councils 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 existing Community Mixed Use (CMU-35) to the northwest of the property on Gray Street and Oregon Avenue.

b. The subject site is within 1320’ (1/4 mile) of a designated transit station or

designated transit corridor, and This site is located in the North Hyde Park neighborhood. There is a transit emphasis corridor, to the south, within ¼ mile to the site; along West Kennedy Avenue which runs east-west through this neighborhood.

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 exiting land use classification is no longer in the best interest of the public. In this event, the City Council may approve the amendment or direct the local

City of Tampa – Planning and Development Comments

4

planning agency to propose an alternative amendment to the existing land use classification. Based on the location of the subject parcels in relation to a core neighborhood of the City, staff believes that Community Mixed Use-35 (CMU-35) land use category is in the best interest of this neighborhood. The requested modification would allow for the continuation of mixed use neighborhood orientated developments in this area. Currently mid-rise residential has recently been developed just west of this site and commercial uses exist to the north.

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. Acknowledged.

Amendment 15-07 would convert a 1.13 acre site from Residential 20 (RES-20) to Community

Mixed Use 35 (CMU-35). Up to 39 multi-family dwelling units could potentially be developed on

the site. Based on adopted Student Generation Rates the amendment could potentially

generate 5 students in the kindergarten through 5th grade level, 3 students at the 6th through 8th

grade level, and 3 students at the high school level. The elementary and middle schools serving

the proposed amendment do not appear to have capacity at the current time, but appears to

within the next 5 years. The high school serving the proposed amendment appears to have

capacity at the current time and within the next 5 years. The amendment area will be served

by Gorrie Elementary School, Wilson Middle School, and Plant High School. The capacity and

projected enrollments at the three schools are as follows:
