The applicant, Port of Palm Beach District, has concurrently applied for approval of a future land use map amendment (LU-16-02), a zoning map amendment (RZ-16-02), a site plan (SP-16-13) and a plat (PA-16-02), associated with the property known as 105 Broadway, parcel control number 56-43-42-33-00-000-5140, which is approximately 5.2 acres in total land area.
This real property was acquired by the Port of Palm Beach District from the Florida Department of Transportation on November 30, 2011, as recorded in Palm Beach County Official Record Book 24882, Page 0566, with associated restrictions and a reverter clause. The Port of Palm Beach District desires to utilize 105 Broadway for storage of rolling and bulk cargo.
The property, 105 Broadway, is adjacent to the jurisdictional boundary of the City of West Palm Beach. Due to this fact, specific property use restrictions were developed through coordinated tri-party meetings with designated staff from the City of West Palm Beach, the Port of Palm Beach and the City of Riviera Beach. These restrictions have been provided on the site plan and identified within the conditions of approval associated with this resolution.
The Planning and Zoning Board reviewed the site plan application (SP-16-13) on September 28, 2017 and recommended approval to the City Council. City staff recommends approval of the site plan application (SP-16-13), in conjunction with the future land use map amendment, LU-16-02, zoning map amendment, RZ-16-02, and plat, PA-16-02.
