III. Annexation/Zoning History: The approximately 1 acre subject site was annexed into the City of Greenacres as part of the 7.53 acre case ANX-05-01 on January 27, 2005 through an interlocal agreement (City Resolution 2005-02, County Resolution 2005-0160). The Future Land Use designation was changed from Palm Beach County Low Residential 1 (LR1) to City Residential-Medium Density (RS-MD) as petition CPA-09-12, through Ordinance 2009-35 on December 7, 2009. The zoning designation was changed from Palm Beach County Agricultural Residential (AR) to City Residential Medium-2 (RM-2) as petition ZC-09-11, through Ordinance 2009-36 also on December 7, 2009. The property had a single-family home on it at annexation but this was subsequently demolished on March 29, 2006 and the property has remained vacant since that time. On January 29, 2013, the Zoning Board of Adjustments and Appeals approved petition BA-12-03 granting a variance for the reduction of the landscape buffers and use of the daycare center parking requirements of the general Zoning Code. On February 4, 2013, the City Council approved a Special Exception to allow a Child Care Center/ Preschool Facility within a Residential Medium-2 (RM-2) zoning district as petition SE-12-03 through Resolution 2013-02. Subsequent to these approvals, an updated survey revealed that the parcel is actually located approximately 33 feet west of the typcial west right-of-way line of South Jog Road and clarified the site boundaries thus changing the actual site area from 43,369 sq. ft. to 43,681 sq. ft.

Staff Analysis: Background: The petition is for Site and Development Plan approval to construct a one-story 6,369 square foot Child Care Center/Preschool Facility and associated playground and parking. The facility is proposed to accommodate 130 children and will utilize playground areas totaling 13,647 square feet. All playground areas will be enclosed with fencing for safety. The center will also include a drop off area accommodating 4 cars near the entrance. A dry detention area is located on the west side of the parcel, and landscape buffers will be included on all perimeters, as well as internal landscape within the site. There is one (1) ingress and egress point from South Jog Road and one (1) ingress and egress point from Dillman Road. A pedestrian connection will be provided to the South Jog Road sidewalk and, as conditioned below, a new sidewalk will be constructed along the project's Dillman Road frontage and a pedestrian connection provided to it. The activities and building on site have been arranged to place the playground away from Jog Road as much as possible and the drop-off area to protect the children while at the same time using the dry retention area and the landscape buffer with a 6 foot masonry wall and a 5 foot aluminum fence in the LWDD easement to separate the playground from the adjacent residential zoning district. The daycare building will also help mitigate traffic noise and activity impacts from Jog Road upon the residential zoned property to the west. The applicant has provided architectural elevations depicting equal architectural features on all four elevations, including a prominent entry porch and a standing seam metal hipped roof over the building. Air-conditioning equipment will be effectively screened in a recessed well at the center of the roof.
