C ITY OF F ORT P IERCE P LANNING D EPARTMENT REBECCA GROHALL, AICP, PLANNING MANAGER COMPREHENSIVE PLANNING DEVELOPMENT REVIEW HISTORIC PRESERVATION URBAN DESIGN URBAN FORESTRY ZONING TO: THROUGH: FROM: RE: Robert Bradshaw, City Manager Nicholas Mimms, Deputy City Manager Rebecca Grohall, AICP, Planning Manager Kori Benton, Historic Preservation Officer 1920 Seaway Drive Public/Private Partnership Proposal DATE: December 1, 2014 Overview The City Manager s Office received a letter, sent by Jim Burg the Owner of Square Grouper Tiki Bar, seeking to engage in a partnership with the City of Fort Pierce to complete infrastructure improvements upon a portion of a City owned property located at 1920 Seaway Drive. The request further explores the sale of a portion of the subject property for future commercial development. The requestor has a Site Plan and Waiver of Distance application, for development of a tiki bar and restaurant immediately to the west of the subject property, scheduled for consideration by the City Commission at their December 15 th, 2014 meeting. The development plan encompasses approximately 6,600 sq. ft. of floor area for a restaurant, bar, and four studio apartments to be served by 51 automobile parking spaces, 12 motorcycle spaces, and 6 short term bicycle spaces. The level of parking provided exceeds the City Code requirements; however the significant demand for parking at Jetty Park and the surrounding establishments encourages the exploration of expanding parking to accommodate increased use by citizens and visitors. The present request proposes to allow the requestor to continue parking improvements from Jetty Park to the parking area of the proposed Square Grouper project, ensuring the improvements are consistent with the design of the existing park, featuring similar landscaping, lighting, and drainage while achieving the addition of 33 improved parking spaces. The remaining land, +/- 9,000 sq. ft., not utilized for the extension of parking and drive aisles is proposed for purchase to facilitate private development consistent with the C- 5, Tourist Commercial zone. The presented concept for the acquired property is the construction of no more than 4,000 sq. ft. of retail/restaurant uses, such as a coffee shop, neighborhood bistro/cafe, restaurant with retail and fishing pole/surfboard rental. The goal is a business model that presents a complimentary demand schedule for parking in hopes of achieving greater parking capacity through differentiation in peak parking demands. The requestor seeks to complete the parking improvements on the City parcel simultaneously with the construction of the Square Grouper site to maximize efficiency in construction costs. The property in question was acquired by the Fort Pierce Redevelopment Agency (FPRA) in July 2009, to contribute to the Jetty Park project as well as the construction of a roundabout at the intersection of 100 N.

DECEMBER 1, 2014 PAGE 2 Seaway Dr. & South Ocean Drive. The FPRA later transferred the property to the City of Fort Pierce, which subsequently deeded a portion of the property to FDOT to complete the roundabout, retaining the remaining property. The property is currently utilized as unimproved, overflow, parking for Jetty Park and neighboring businesses. History and Review The City Commission, in July 2009, granted Conditional Use approval to allow Jetty Park improvements to extend to the subject property. The FPRA purchased the 1.04 acre property in July 2009 for the consideration of $1,200,000, and the relinquishment of code liens applied to the property. The FPRA transferred the entire property to the City of Fort Pierce in January, 2013. The City of Fort Pierce deeded.31 acres of the property to the FDOT in August, 2013 in order to complete a roundabout, sidewalk, and landscape improvements. The City of Fort Pierce has retained the remaining.73 acres, grading and roping makeshift parking spaces is 2013 to provide overflow parking to the public. The following items or issues identified may require additional information or discussion: When the FPRA acquired the property and transferred ownership to the City, were any restrictions placed on its use or disposition? (Perhaps the Attorney s office can research and provide input). A significant portion of the subject property is located within a FEMA Zone VE, placing additional requirements upon future improvements or construction. City Code Section 22-33 (b) (1) requires a minimum lot area of 10,000 sq. ft., minimum lot width of seventy (70) ft, and minimum lot depth of ninety (90) ft. in the C-5, Tourist Commercial zone. City Code Section 22-33 (c) (3) requires that every lot within the C-5, Tourist Commercial zone abut a street other than an alley for at least fifty (50) feet. The City of Fort Pierce Comprehensive Plan contains various Goals, Policies, and Objectives related to the acquisition, maintenance, and sale of property or right-of-way that provide access, and/or views of the waterfront. It is noted that the Inlet Linear Park has been established to the north of this property, securing access to, and views of the Fort Pierce Inlet. The Planning Board is required to review and offer a recommendation of any property disposition. Disposition of the property, or a portion of the subject property may result in job creation, as well as increase ad-valorem tax revenue due to private ownership. Recommendation Staff is respectfully requesting the City Commission give direction for pursuing a Request for Proposal (RFP) for the sale, lease, and/or development of this property as a public/private partnership.

Jupiter's Original Watering Hole --===~~ dn:a 18H 7=~=- Jim Bur9 Square Grouper Tiki Bar 1111 Love St. Jupiter, fl 33477 Nick Mimms, P.E. Deputy City Manager City of Fort Pierce, Florida 100 North U.S. I Fort Pierce, Florida Nick, Thank you for taking time to meet with me to discuss the Square Grouper project I'm proposing on the Inlet within the City of Fort Pierce. I'm looking forward to being a part of your community. I am committed to developing the 4,800sqft building and fifty two parking spaces on the Square Grouper parcel. I would like to propose a public/private partnership on the City of Fort Pierce's adjacent parcel to the East. I would like the City to consider a proposal to allow me to continue the parking area that has been constructed at Jetty Park and connect it with the parking area of the proposed Square Grouper project. The improvements would be consistent with the design of the existing park and would include landscaping, lighting and drainage as well as the addition of33 parking spaces. In addition, the proposed uses are consistent with and exactly those uses contemplated under the C5, Tourist Commercial Zone. For this improvement I would like to take ownership of+/- 9,000sf of the Northeast comer of the property for the purpose of constructing no more than a building(s) with a total of 4,000sf of retail/restaurant uses. Example of uses may include: a Coffee shop, Neighborhood Bistro/Cafe, Restaurant with Retail and Fishing rod/surfboard rental. A deed restriction will be recorded not allowing alcoholic beverages to be sold on this parcel. A shared parking analysis has determined the peak parking demand for the uses proposed for the parcel east of the Square Grouper are in the am and early afternoon and the peak parking times for the Square Grouper are late afternoon into the evening. These two p~rcels will have complimentary demand schedules for parking and may provide for additional capacity thereby alleviating some deficiencies at the current Jetty Park. In the interests of saving time and expense, it would be beneficial to have this project completed simultaneously with the construction and completion of the parking area for the Square Grouper property. The completed proposed project will create connectivity and a seamless transition from the existing Jetty Park and the Square Grouper through a cross access agreement. Lastly, these new businesses will add to the City's tax rolls and help create new jobs in the area.
