AGENDA ITEM
Subject: 5-Year CIP Attachments: (X) Ordinance From: Matt Boerger, Growth Management ( ) Resolution ( ) Supporting Documents/ Contracts Meeting Hearing Date
August 7, 2019 ( ) Other
REQUEST
Staff is requesting approval of the second reading of Ordinance #03-19 amending the City's 2019 Five-
Year Capital Improvement Program (CIP).
PURPOSE
The City is required by Florida Statutes Section 163.3177(3)(b) to update its Five-Year CIP to reflect its
planned capital improvements over the next five years.
CONSIDERATIONS
Section 163.3177(3)(b), Florida Statutes requires that local governments review their capital
improvements element on an annual basis and provides that modifications to update the five-year
capital improvements schedule may be accomplished by Ordinance and are not deemed amendments to
the comprehensive plan. Upon final adoption of the Ordinance, a copy will be filed with the Florida
Department of Economic Opportunity Division of Community Planning, Development and Services.
The proposed Five-Year CIP does not change the existing, current-year budget, approved by City Council
and is contingent upon funding and Council approval. This does not obligate the City to spend the money
as it is a planning document only.
COST/FUNDING
N/A
RECOMMENDATION
Approve the second reading of Ordinance #03-19.
IMPLEMENTATION
The Five-Year CIP must be updated every year. This plan will be evaluated next year and amended accordingly to meet the City’s adopted budget and future plans within the new five-year window. ATTACHMENTS Ordinance 03-19; Exhibit A (5-Year CIP)

FA City Council Meeting City of DeBary
AGENDA ITEM
Subject: LDC Updates Attachments: (X) Ordinance From: Matt Boerger, Growth Management ( ) Resolution ( ) Supporting Documents/ Contracts Meeting Hearing Date
August 7, 2019 ( ) Other
REQUEST
Staff is requesting the approval the second reading of Ordinance 05-19 amending sections of the Land Development Code: Sec 1-10 Notice Requirements, from 200 feet to 1,000 feet; Sec 5-86, Tree Preservation, removing exemptions for tree removal permits for single-family homes within a PUD; and Sec 4-82 Streets, allowing exemptions for minimum right of way and asphalt width requirements.
PURPOSE
To increase public awareness of land development entitlement requests; to fairly implement the tree removal permitting process across all residential properties; and to apply logical exemptions to existing developed areas where the right of way and asphalt widths don’t meet the street design requirements and where the Development Review Committee determines adequate infrastructure is already in place to serve future infill development projects.
CONSIDERATIONS
Sec 1-10 Notice Requirements: As the City of Debary continues to experience growth pressures, existing residents want to be aware of proposed development entitlements. For amendments to the Land Development Code, Zoning Map, Special Exceptions, Variances, PUD Major and Minor Amendments, a certified mailing notice shall be sent to adjacent property owners providing information on scheduled community meetings and public hearings by City Council. However, 200 feet captures very little adjacent property owners for notification purposes. Therefore, an increase to 1,000 feet is recommended to capture a more sufficient area of the surrounding neighborhood.
Sec 5-86 Tree Preservation: The City of DeBary Land Development Code requires developers and existing residents to apply for a tree removal permit and to mitigate existing trees planned for removal. However, the Land Development Code, Sec 5-86, provides an exemption for single-family or two-family homes located in a Planned Unit Development. This is contradictory to the intent of the code due to the fact that new developments are required to install trees throughout a new subdivision and to preserve and mitigate a certain percentage of existing trees on a site. Additionally, all other lots in the City that are not within a PUD are required to obtain a tree removal permit. Therefore, it is proposed to remove these exemption criteria from the code to ensure all single-family and two-family homes in the city are treated equally and that the City’s policy of tree preservation is continued.
- 2 -
Sec 4-82 Streets: The City of DeBary Land Development Code requires 70 feet of right-of-way and 24 feet of asphalt on rural sections (roads without a curb and gutter) of roads. However, many of the rights-of-way and asphalt widths within the older portions of the City do not meet this requirement. For example, many, if not most, of the rights-of-way in Plantation Estates (the “Vista Streets”) are less than the code requirement (example, 50 feet of right-of-way rather than the required 70 feet). The City receives permit applications for new single-family home construction on rights-of-way in this area, which is an older, platted subdivision, where most of the other homes have been constructed decades ago. It’s unrealistic to expect new in-fill developments such as single-family homes at the end of un-paved rights-of-way to achieve this road development standard. This is a technicality in the code that is being proposed for correction by allowing the Development Review Committee to determine whether adequate rights-of-way and asphalt width is available for existing and future infrastructure.
Findings of Fact
Increasing the notice requirements distance will capture more properties in the community allow for more public awareness of development entitlement changes
Removing single-family and two-family residential properties within a PUD from the exemptions section of the code will create more equitable treatment of the tree removal process for all residents
Allowing the DRC to evaluate adequate right-of-way and asphalt widths on a case by case basis during development application reviews will correct inconsistencies between the Land Development Code requirements and the existing built environment.

FA City Council Meeting City of DeBary
AGENDA ITEM
Subject: Mobility Plan Attachments: ( ) Ordinance From: Matt Boerger, Growth Management ( ) Resolution (X) Supporting Documents/ Contracts Meeting Hearing Date
August 7, 2019 ( ) Other
REQUEST
Staff is requesting the City Council to approve a new task order with ACi for the expansion of a mobility plan currently being drafted for the TOD area.
PURPOSE
To expand the Mobility Plan area to ensure that the adequate transportation infrastructure is in place
concurrent with new development projects in the areas of the City anticipated for new growth.
CONSIDERATIONS
A master transportation improvement plan needs to be established that considers the necessary improvements for the build-out of the TOD and surrounding areas anticipated for new growth. The establishment of a mobility plan will create a menu of transportation improvements that can be implemented as construction of individual projects commence over time. The process will replace the City’s existing concurrency process for the areas under the mobility plan. The current concurrency process slows down the development approval process. Additionally, it creates a more contentious process for ensuring that the developers pay their fair share to the impact on the city’s transportation infrastructure. A mobility plan with the associated mobility fees will resolve this issue.
The City has previously budgeted money to establish a Mobility Plan for the TOD area so that transportation planning and implementation in this area considers a multi-modal approach. A mobility plan for this area has been underway. However, staff is proposing that the area being considered for a mobility plan be expanded. The expanded area, as identified in the attached map, would include the US 17-92 corridor south of the SunRail station to the St. Johns River and west of the SunRail station along the entire Ft. Florida Road corridor up to W. Highbanks Road.
A presentation was made to a previous City Council on whether to establish a mobility plan and mobility fees for the TOD area. At that time, council directed staff to pursue it. In 2018, Council amended the budget to include the required $27,000 in funding for a mobility plan. Drafting of the original plan is almost complete. However, since then, the City has been able to identify its road improvement needs to keep up with existing and future development that could have been funded by a proposed ½ sales tax. Since the ½ sales tax failed the referendum in May, 2019, it is now determined that expanding the Mobility Plan would be in the City’s benefit to include areas anticipated for new growth in order to help pay for some of this infrastructure. This will allow for future development to pay mobility fees to off-set
- 2 -
its impact to the city’s transportation infrastructure plans. A task order through ACi and their sub consultant, New Urban Concepts, is now being brought before city council for consideration. ACi has a continuing professional services agreement with the City though September 30, 2019. The terms of the Nue Urban Concept Scope shall apply to ACi as well.
COST/FUNDING
$13,000.00. This will be funded through the TOD Department which has adequate funds for this project
and no budget amendment is necessary.
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council authorize the City Manager to execute the proposed Scope of
Services and the expenditure of funds for $13,000.00:
IMPLEMENTATION
Nue Urban Concepts will expand the Mobility Plan area consistent with the attached Scope. Once
completed, the plan will be brought back to City Council for consideration of adoption.

July 27th, 2019 Mr. Larry Adams, AIA Principal-‐‑in-‐‑Charge ACi Architects 955 North Pennsylvania Ave Winter Park, FL 32789 RE: EXPANDED BOUNDARIES MOBILITY PLAN & MOBILITY FEE – CITY OF DEBARY Dear Larry: NUE Urban Concepts (NUC) is pleased to provide a scope to ACi Architects (CLIENT) to expand the assessment area for the current Mobility Plan and Mobility Fee being developed for the City of DeBary. The current assessment area is limited to the area designated in the City’s Comprehensive Plan for a Transit Oriented Development (TOD) Overlay District. The expanded Mobility Plan is an opportunity to integrate multi-‐‑modal oriented land uses, people focused complete streets, and innovative parking strategies that encourage walking, bicycling and other multi-‐‑modal transport within the TOD overlay and reduce overall dependence on automobile travel. The current approved scope to develop a mobility plan, mobility fee and an implementing area will be expanded to include the expanded assessment area as shown on the attachment to this scope. The following are the task to be undertaken: I. SCOPE OF SERVICES
Task 1: MOBILITY PLAN: Expand the Mobility Plan to include improvements for the expanded assessment area above those identified for the currently adopted TOD Overlay District.
Task 2: PROJECT GROWTH & FUTURE TRAVEL DEMAND: Future travel demand
shall be based upon the build-‐‑out of the expanded area based upon the comprehensive plan and projected future development potential for the area.

improvements included in the Mobility Plan and the future travel demand based on trip generation and person trips from the build-‐‑out of land uses with in the expanded assessment area and the TOD Overlay District. The Fee shall be consistent with case law and statutory requirements. The land use schedule for the Mobility Fee will be streamlined to allow ease of implementation. The assessment area shall be the entirety of the expanded area and the TOD Overlay District.
