REVIEW COMMENTS 7.C.l ECKERD DRUGS @TARGET (COUS 03-001) CONDITIONAL USE DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT PLANNING AND ZONING DIVISION MEMORANDUM NO. PZ 03-086 TO: Chairman and Members Planning & Development Board FROM: Michael Rumpf Director of Planning and Zoning Eric Lee Johnson, AIep 4k Planner (f THRU: DATE: April 17, 2003 PROJECT: Eckerd @ Target Commercial Center / COUS 03-001 REQUEST: Conditional Use approval for a drive-through facility PROJECT DESCRIPTION Property Owner: Andrew Berger / American Development Corporation Applicant/Agent: Erik J. Wilczek / Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. Location: 1895 North Congress Avenue (see Exhibit "A" - Location Map) Existing Land Use/Zoning: Local Retail Commercial (LRC) / Community Commercial (C-3) Proposed Land Use/Zoning: No change proposed Proposed Use: Pharmacy with drive-through facility Acreage: 98,745 square feet / 2.27 acres Adjacent Uses: North: Remainder of Target shopping plaza, zoned Community Commercial (C-3), farther north is right-of-way for Gateway Boulevard; South: Catalina Shopping Center, zoned Community Commercial (C-3); East: Right-of-way for Congress Avenue, then farther east is Motorola, zoned Planned Industrial Development (PID); West: Remainder of Target shopping plaza, zoned Community Commercial (C-3). Eckerd at Target Shopping Center - COUS 03-001 Page 2 Memorandum No. PZ 03-086 BACKGROUND Erik J. Wilczek, agent for Eckerd is seeking conditional use / major site plan modification approval for pharmacy with a drive-through facility. The applicant proposes to occupy an existing one (1) story 11,786 square foot building currently occupied by Rack Room Shoes and previously occupied by Barnes & Noble, and Bookstop. The existing building is located on Parcel "A" of the Target Commercial Center. Parcel "A", which is 2.27 acres, is comprised of the subject stand-alone building as well as a number of smaller in-line bays (14,200 square feet). The Target Commercial Center is comprised of three (3) main parcels, namely Parcel "A" which was already described, Parcel "B", which is the Target store, and Parcel "C", a stand-alone Carrabba's restaurant. The fourth parcel (Parcel "D") is subordinate and is comprised of the buffer and swale area of the shopping center's perimeters along Gateway Boulevard and Congress Avenue. The proposed pharmacy is a permitted use in the C-3 zoning district but the drive-through feature requires conditional use approval (see Exhibit "D" - Justification). The drive-through facility would be located on the east portion of the existing stand-alone building on Parcel "A", facing Congress Avenue. The facility would have one drive-through lane, running much of the length of the eastern fa~ade. This drive-through lane would eliminate ten (10) parking spaces. The parking is shared throughout the entire shopping center (all three (3) main parcels). Unlike a Planned Commercial Development (PCD) such as Grove Plaza or BJ's Wholesale Club, the Target Commercial Center is not a master plan. However, the modifications proposed to Parcel "A" impact the entire shopping center. Therefore, a major site plan modification (MSPM 03-003) to the Target site plan is being processed concurrently with this conditional use application. If approved, the construction of the drive-through facility, the proposed building fa~ade enhancements, and the installation of plant material would occur in one (1) phase. STANDARDS FOR EVALUATING CONDmONAL USES AND ANALYSIS Section 11.2.D of the Land Development Regulations contains the following standards to which conditional uses are required to conform. Following each of these standards is the Planning and Zoning Division's evaluation of the application as it pertains to standards. The Planning and Development Board and City Commission shall consider only such conditional uses as are authorized under the terms of these zoning regulations and, in connection therewith, may grant conditional uses absolutely or conditioned upon the conditions including, but not limited to, the dedication of property for streets, alleys, recreation space and sidewalks, as shall be determined necessary for the protection of the surrounding area and the citizens' general welfare, or deny conditional uses when not in harmony with the intent and purpose of this section. In evaluating an application for conditional use approval, the Board and Commission shall consider the effect of the proposed use on the general health, safety and welfare of the community and make written findings certifying that satisfactory provisions have been made concerning the following standards, where applicable: 1. Ingress and egress to the subject property and proposed structures thereon, with particular reference to automobile and pedestrian safety and convenience, traffic flow and control, and access in case of fire or catastrophe. , Eckerd at Target Shopping Center - COUS 03-001 Page 3 Memorandum No. PZ 03-086 Comparable to outparcels located in Planned Commercial Development Districts, this project would utilize existing access drives of the Target Commercial Center. Currently, the shopping plaza has two (2) main points of ingress / egress. One of the two points is an access drive that is shared with the Catalina Shopping Center to the south. The other point of access is located on Parcel ''8'' along Gateway Boulevard. None of these access points would be altered as a result of the proposed site improvements. 2. Off-street parking and loading areas where required, with particular attention to the items in subsection above, and the economic, glare, noise, and odor effects the conditional use will have on adjacent and nearby properties, and the city as a whole. Required parking for pharmacies is one (1) space per 200 square feet of gross floor area. The existing building that Eckerd would occupy is 11,786 square feet in area. No building additions are proposed to the existing structure. However, the proposed drive-through lane, proposed along the eastern fa~ade would eliminate ten (10) existing parking spaces. The existing building, coupled with the other commercial portion of Parcel '~" totals 25,986 square feet. Therefore, Parcel '~" requires 124 parking spaces and 130 parking spaces are provided. However, the elimination of 10 parking spaces (due to the drive-through facility) would eliminate all of the shopping centers excess parking spaces. The shopping center would require and provide 769 parking spaces. 3. Refuse and service areas, with particular reference to the items in subsection 1 and 2 above. The dumpster enclosure would remain in its current location at the rear (south) of the building. According to the demolition plan (sheet C-3), the existing enclosure walls, pavement and concrete walk would be removed and replaced with a new dumpster enclosure and loading zone area. This refuse and service area would be enhanced and is currently located in an area that is unobtrusive to pedestrian and vehicular traffic and unnoticeable from Congress A venue. The dumpster location is positioned in such a way to facilitate efficient removal of trash. 4. Utilities, with reference to locations, availability, and compatibility. Consistent with Comprehensive Plan policies and city regulations, all utilities, including potable water and sanitary sewer are available for this project. 5. Screening, buffering and landscaping with reference to type, dimensions, and character. Much of the landscaping of Parcel '~" would remain unaltered except for the elimination of 222 square feet of pervious area due to the drive-through lane and other site improvements. This loss of pervious area represents an insignificant change to the total amount of pervious area in the entire shopping plaza. The landscape plan (sheet LA-1) proposes the addition of four (4) Live Oak trees, nine (9) Sabal palm trees, five (5) Crape Myrtle trees, and two (2) Cat palms. Additional hedges and groundcover would be provided as needed. Additional landscaping would be required along the east property line to screen the drive-through facility. The intent of Chapter 9, Community Design Plan, Section 11.H. is to screen the drive-through feature as much as possible from the adjacent right-of-way (Congress Avenue). This chapter requires that drive-through windows that face rights-ot-way be screened or hidden through architectural design and specific landscaped areas (such as a berm). The landscape "It, Eckerd at Target Shopping Center - COUS 03-001 Page 4 Memorandum No. PZ 03-086 plan (sheet LA-i) shows the proposed landscape material and cross-section of the drive-through facility in relation to the eastern portion of the site. Staff has determined that the cross-section is inadequate and the intent of Chapter 9 is not fully met. As a result, the applicant would be required to provide additional landscape material or substitute plant species as a condition of approval. This would be required within the proposed landscape island directly east of the drive-through as well as along the eastern perimeter buffer. At the time of permitting, these buffer areas shall be enhanced to the satisfaction of the City Forester/Environmentalist to ensure compliance with intent of Chapter 9 - Community Design (see Exhibit "C" - Conditions of Approval). 6. Signs, and proposed exterior lighting, with reference to glare, traffic safety, economic effect, and compatibility and harmony with adjacent and nearby properties. This conditional use application proposes three (3) wall signs for the Eckerd drug store. Two (2) of these wall signs are proposed on the front (north) fa~ade while the third is proposed on the east building facade. The ''Eckerd'' wall sign proposed on the front fa~ade would be 30.47 square feet in area. The second wall sign on the north fa~ade ('Drive- Thru Pharmacy") is 32.29 square feet in area. The ''Eckerd'' wall sign proposed on the east fa~ade would be the same as the one in the front (30.47 square feet in area). Collectively, all wall signs would be 93.25 square feet in area. This would comply with Chapter 21, Article IV, Section 3.C 7. Required setbacks and other open spaces. The proposed canopies and drive-through lane would meet all setback requirements of the C-3 zoning district. No open spaces are being diminished as a result of the drive-through lane. 8. General compatibility with adjacent property and other property in the zoning district. In general, the proposed use is compatible with the commercial uses of the existing shopping center and the C-3 zoning district. There would be minimal on-site impact and no adverse effects would occur from the pharmacy use. The construction of the drive-through lane would eliminate ten (10) parking spaces but would not cause the shopping center to fall below the development standards. The drive-through facility would have little or no impact on the adjacent properties or the surrounding area. The proposed building alterations, colors and roof material are compatible with the existing buildings in the shopping center. 9. Height of building and structures, with reference to compatibility and harmony to adjacent and nearby properties, and the city as a whole. The maximum allowable height for the C-3 zoning district is 45 feet. The building was originally designed and would remain as a one-story structure. The top of the parapet wall would be 20 feet tall and the peak of the large parapet, when scaled, is nearly 28 feet tall. These building heights are proposed well below the maximum height allowed by the C-3 zoning district. The building height is compatible in comparison with the neighboring commercial properties. 10. Economic effects on adjacent and nearby properties, and the city as a whole. The proposed pharmacy and drive-through would constitute additional convenience and choice for the City residents. The existing building currently fronts on a major arterial (Congress Avenue) and Eckerd at Target Shopping Center - COUS 03-001 Page 5 Memorandum No. PZ 03-086 is in close proximity to Interstate 95. This, with its close proximity to neighboring residential development makes the proposed site an ideal location for this type of use. The closest stand-alone pharmacy is located at the southeast corner of Hypoluxo Road and Congress A venue. 11. Conformance to the standards and requirements which apply to site plans, as set forth in Chapter 19, Article II of the City of Boynton Beach Code of Ordinances. (Part III Chapter 4 Site Plan Review). With incorporation of staff comments, the proposed project would comply with all requirements of applicable sections of city code. 12. Compliance with, and abatement of nuisances and hazards in accordance with the performance standards within Section 4.N. of the Land Development Regulations, Chapter 2; also, conformance to the City of Boynton Beach noise Control Ordinance. With incorporation of all conditions and staff recommendations contained herein, the proposed pharmacy with drive-through facility would operate in a manner that is in compliance with the above- referenced codes and ordinances of the City of Boynton Beach. RECOMMENDATION It should be noted that the preferred location of the drive-through window is at the west side of the building. However, staff acknowledges that the elimination of parking spaces west of the building would have greater impact to the in-line stores, opposite the project, due to the limited number of parking spaces at this location. Therefore, based on the discussions contained herein, compliance with development regulations, and consistency with the Comprehensive Plan, staff recommends that this request for conditional use be approved subject to satisfying all conditions of approval as contained in Exhibit "C". Furthermore, pursuant to Chapter 2 - Zoning, Section 11.2 Conditional Uses, a time limit is to be set within which the proposed project is to be developed. Staff recommends that a period of one (1) year be allowed to initiate this project.

Since this is shared parking and the proposed drive through would eliminate 10 parking spaces, it would cause the entire development to fall below the required standard. Either create 10 additional parking spaces to compensate for the loss of spaces or apply for a variance from the parking re uirements of the Land Develo ment Re ulations. 35.

Kevin. -----Original Message----- From: Johnson, Eric Sent: Thursday, April 10, 2003 1:10 PM To: Hallahan, Kevin Cc: Rumpf, Michael Subject: Eckerd landscape Kevin, I was reviewing your additional conditions of approval (see below). I wanted to make sure that you are okay the conditions and plans as they are presented. I am making the following assumptions: 1. You are satisfied with their plans as they are presented and that you will require the comments referenced below at the time of permitting. 2. That the items requested below will not require major site changes afterwards, should the CC approve the plans. Future major site changes, in itself would require Commission approval. I make these assumptions because major changes are easier to deal with now rather than later. Please respond. Thanks.
