SUBJECT:
Live/Work Units in Suburban Mixed Use Developments
NATURE OF REOUEST
Town & Country Homes - Florida Is requesting that the City initiate a code review for
amendments to the SMU Suburban Mixed Use development regulations to allow Live/Work units
as a permissible use within the SMU district, subject to criteria.
BACKGROUND
Live/Work Units are generally described as buildings or spaces that are used jointly for
commercial and residential purposes. The idea Is not new; throughout history there are
examples of "living above the shop." By creating opportunities for this type of activity in
residential areas within mixed use developments we also provide additional opportunities to
reduce dependence on the automobile to reach some business and professional services. When
regulations for the Mixed Use-High Intensity and Low Intensity zoning districts were amended in
2004, provisions were included to allow for live/work units; however, in that instance, the
emphasis was on limiting the "live" portion of the structure In the commercial center of the
coastal area. With the request under consideration, the emphasis Is focused on limiting the
"work" portion of the structure.
There are numerous examples of live/work regulations across the country, particularly In larger
cities. In Palm Beach County, three examples were examined, notably West Palm Beach, Delray
Beach and Jupiter and are briefly discussed below.
West Palm Beach allows "limited office uses" In specific redevelopment areas of the downtown,
specifying that the uses are secondary to the residential uses and limits them to no more than
35% of the net Interior area of the structure. The allowable uses Include offices for agents,
architects, artists, brokers, dentists, doctors, lawyers, and other similar uses. The parking
regulations require a minimum of one space per dwelling unit and an additional two spaces for
the limited office use.

CORY 05-002
live/Work Units In SMU
Delray Beach has adopted a "Residential Office" zoning district to be used as a transitional use
between commercial or Industrial districts and residential districts, or used as an Incentive In
older residential districts needing redevelopment. The regulations allow business and
professional office uses. Structures In the district can contain either a residential use, and office
use, or a mix of uses; however, the appearance must be residential In character. The City also
has regulations specific to the Old School Square Historic Arts District, that allow a broader
range of commercial uses, including restaurants, retail specialty shops, and art-related sales, as
well as single family residential uses. Residential and commercial uses may be located In the
same structure or on the same property, provided the owner of the parcel occupies either the
business or the residence, or an employee of the business occupies the residence. There are no
size limitations on either the residential units or the commercial spaces.
Jupiter's regulations were developed for the Abacoa development, which is similar in nature to
the Boynton Beach Suburban Mixed Use developments. Jupiter limits the number of live/work
units to 3% of the total residential units In a neighborhood and requires that they front on a
central neighborhood public square. The work portion of a townhouse dwelling Is limited to the
ground floor and must meet the Florida Industrial Building Code requirements at time of
construction. The commercial area Is limited to 1,500 square feet. One of the persons who
work in the commercial operation must reside full-time in the residential portion of the
townhouse and up to four other persons may work In the unit. Verification of residency Is
required upon annual renewal of the Occupational Ucense for the unit. Deliveries to the
commercial use are limited to 9:00 am - 6:00 pm and parking requirements are based on the
square footage of commercial use plus the required parking for the residential unit.
ANALYSIS
The proposed live/work regulations for the SMU district (Exhibit "A'') limit the area of the "work"
portion to 30% of the unit or 400 square feet, whichever is greater, restricting It to the ground
level and not allowing it to occupy garage or living spaces. The space must meet the Florida
Building Code requirements for mixed occupancy buildings. locations are limited to the
perimeter of the residential project or along the project's principal roadway and, where possible,
adjacent to perimeter or external roadways to minimize Impacts on the greater neighborhood.
"Work" uses are limited to professional or business services or tutoring as listed In the
ordinance. Employment for each unit Is limited to two on-site workers at anyone time, In
addition to resldent(s) of the "live" portion of the unit. The worker residing In the unit would
maintain the occupational license for the business and must acknowledge the employee
limitation at the time of application for the license. "Work" units may not be rented separately
from the living space. In addition to the two parking spaces required for the residential unit,
one additional parking space would be available for each two "work" units and may be located
either on the lot, built Into the structure or within 300 feet of the unit. Slgnage Is limited to one
wall plaque, two square feet In copy area.
RECOMMENDAnON
It Is staff's opinion that the proposed amendments will prOVide an additional opportunity for
locating small and low-Intensity commercial uses In residential portions of mixed use
developments, which may be more Intense than typical home occupations, but because of the
Page 2
CORY 05-002
lIve/Work Units In SMU
size limitations, are not as Intense as the full range of uses permitted In the office commercial
district. The proposed regulations and locatlonal criteria are sufficient to provide adequate
controls to ameliorate any negative effects. Therefore, staff recommends approval. If changes
to the proposed amendment are recommended by the Planning and Development Board or
required by the City Commission, they will be added as Exhibit "B".
