Item 1

Public Hearing * NZVAR 2017-15 Palm Valley Vet. PVZVAR 2017-15 Palm Valley Vet Hospital, request for a Non-Zoning Variance to Section 3.06.04.A.1, 3.06.04.A.8 and 3.06.05.A.7 of the St. Johns County Land Development Code to allow for a flat roof line on a portion of the building, the length of a building parallel, or within forty-five (45) degrees parallel, of a Palm Valley Overlay District Delineated Roadway to exceed the 120 foot maximum and to additionally allow for a fence to be located closer to the Palm Valley Delineated Roadway than the building; specifically located at 3783 Palm Valley Road. NZVAR 2017-15 is a companion application with ARCCC 2017-13; both applications were heard by the Palm Valley Architectural Review Committee on March 28, 2018. The PVARC recommended approval with a unanimous vote, 5-0.

Item 2

Public Hearing * PUD 2016-16 Winding Oaks (FKA Strates Crossing). PUD 2016-16 Winding Oaks (FKA Strates Crossing), is a request to rezone approximately 219 acres from Open Rural (OR) to Planned Unit Development (PUD) to allow for the development of a 252 unit single-family development. On May 18, 2017 the Planning and Zoning Agency held a public hearing on the subject application, and voted 7 – 0 to recommend approval. On June 20, 2017 the Board of County Commissioners held a public hearing on this item and voted to continue it to August 1, 2017. Prior to the deferred hearing, the Applicant requested a continuance from August 1st to a date uncertain to allow more time to address the issues discussed by the Board on June 20th.

Item 3

Public Hearing * PRD 2017-01 Southwind Plantation. Request to rezone approximately 102 acres from Open Rural (OR) to Planned Rural Development (PRD) to allow for the development of 20 single-family residential units, located west of Cabbage Hammock Road and south of County Road 208. The Planning and Zoning Agency recommended approval with a 5-0 vote.

Item 4

Public Hearing * Land Development Code Amendments - Articles II, VI, IX, and XII. First Reading. These amendments would clarify provisions regulating fences on vacant lots, clarifying the measurement of fence height, and modifying the review process for 2APS retail package sales of alcoholic beverages. Other amendments would include removing boat and recreational vehicle parking from Article II, Part 2.04.00 Prohibited Uses and placing the restriction within Article VI, Part 6.08.00 Supplemental Design Standards for Specified Uses. Currently, there are several Pride cases seeking relief from this prohibited use. By removing this section from Prohibited Uses would allow an applicant to seek relief through a Zoning variance approvable by the Planning and Zoning Agency. Finally, this amendment would modify provisions and procedures within Article VI, Part 6.08.00 Supplemental Design Standards for regulating kennels. This amendment would expand upon existing text for kennels by specifying other similar uses and would create a new use for other types of facilities that board domestic animals for a temporary period of time as well as provide other services.

Item 5

Riverdale Park Property Purchase. Recently, the St. Johns County Land Management Department was contacted by a resident seeking to sell property to St. Johns County at a purchase price of $135,000. The property is located adjacent to and contiguous with Riverdale Park (see attached memo and map). It includes 8 parcels totaling approximately 1 acre. If acquired, the property could provide for additional parking at Riverdale Park, which includes a one-lane boat ramp, an associated dock with floating dock, 2 pavilions with benches and a restroom facility. The Park is heavily used by residents, visitors and fisherman. Frequently on weekends, the 25-space parking area is usually at or beyond capacity. The property lies within Park Impact Fee Zone D, which currently has a fund balance of $44,836. Additionally, the property is eligible for a Florida Inland Navigation District Waterways Assistance Program Grant. In order to qualify, the County would need to pre-acquire the property, then seek reimbursement through the grant program for 50% of the acquisition costs. Grant applications are due in April 2019. Here, Staff seeks approval by the Board to move forward with obtaining an appraisal, and negotiating a proposed purchase and sale agreement. If negotiations are successful, the proposed agreement will presented to the Board for final consideration.

Item 6

Palm Valley Landing Wharf Easement. At the direction of the Chair of the Board of County Commissioners, during its last regularly scheduled meeting, this item is presented for the Board's consideration. The Ponte Vedra/Palm Valley Greenway Alliance (Alliance) seeks to construct a 2,000 square foot wharf at the end of Canal Blvd. in Palm Valley. The wharf will allow for public access to the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway in an area where public access is limited. The Alliance has a contractor that is willing to donate the materials and labor needed to construct the wharf, and will build it to industry standards. The Alliance will be solely responsible for securing and maintaining all required permits necessary for completion of the project. In order to gain access to the proposed construction site, the Alliance seeks an easement for ingress and egress over the County's right-of-way. Upon completion of the project, the Alliance has proposed transferring ownership of the wharf to the County. Alternatively, the Alliance seeks a continued easement that will provide for public access to the wharf. Here, Staff seeks Board direction regarding: (1) granting the requested ingress/egress easement for construction and access; and (2) acceptance of the proposed wharf.
