Emergency/Executive Order 2020-04.
4. The Petitioner and/or Petitioner's representative executed the Hybrid Virtual Quasi -Judicial

Page 1 of 5
simultaneously run online via Zoom to allow for remote participation. The meeting
commenced at 5:30 PM with a presentation designed to explain of requested Conditional Use
and operational characteristics of the proposed facility
6. The Petitioner and/or Petitioner's representative presented the Petition, followed by County
staff and then public comment. One letter of support was submitted into the record by the
owner of a recreational vehicle (RV) stored on land adjacent to the subject property. One
nearby resident (whose residential boundary is no closer than 600 feet from the subject
property) spoke during public comment and expressed safety concerns, such as lightning and
vandalism. The applicant produced an expert with more than 20-years of experience working
with liquid propane storage and distribution, who satisfactorily addressed the operational and
safety concerns including lightning and vandalism.
7. The County's Land Development Code Section 10.008.1) lists the criteria for evaluating and
granting a Conditional Use. The Hearing Examiner acting as the Planning Commission may
grant the Conditional Use if it will not adversely affect the public.'
1. Section 2.03.04 A. Lc of the LDC permits conditional uses in the Industrial (I) Zoning
District.
The record from the public hearing reflects that the requested use for a LP gas storage and
bulk distribution facility, SIC Codes 5171 and 5172, is expressly allowed as a conditional
use in the Industrial (I) Zoning District subject to the standards and procedures established
in LDC section 10.08.00 - Conditional Use Procedures.
2. Consistency with the Land Development Code (LDC) and the Growth Management Plan
(GMP).
The record from the public hearing reflects this request is consistent with the growth
management plan (GMP) and, with the conditions proposed by county staff as reflected in
this decision, this project will be in compliance with the applicable provisions of the LDC.
3. Ingress and egress to the property and proposed structures thereon, with particular
reference to automotive and pedestrian safety and convenience, traffic flow and control,
and access in case of fire or catastrophe.
The record from the public hearing reflects that ingress and egress to the subject property
is by way of two full access connections to Basik Drive at its northern extent; Basik Drive
connects to westbound Tamiami Trail East (US 41) at an existing full access opening. The
traffic impact study (TIS) submitted by the applicant indicates that the adjacent roadway
network has sufficient capacity to accommodate this project. This project will not adversely
impact the surrounding roadway network.
'The Hearing Examiner's findings are italicized.
Page 2 of 5
4. The affect the Conditional Use would have on neighboring properties in relation to noise,
glare, economic or odor effects.
The record from the public hearing reflects that the LP gas storage and distribution facility
use is in an area that is sufficiently isolated from properties that may present compatibility
concerns. The subject property is along a road and within an area that is comprised of all
industrial uses, an asphalt and concrete batch plant and an automobile salvage yard,
outdoor recreational vehicle storage and other similar uses. The use itself does notproduce
glare, odor, or noise. Traffic coming in and out of the site is minimal and there is nearly
no activity on the site as it is unmanned. Security lighting is to be minimal with no off -site
spillage.
5. Compatibility with adjacent properties and other property in the district.
The record from the public hearing reflects that the proposed use is extremely passive in
nature. There will be nearly no on -site activity and very few vehicles entering and exiting
the property. The facility is not a retail distribution site. The subject project is setback at
least 700 feet from Tamiami Trial. A large water retention pond and RV storage area
separates the facility and the closest (low density / large lot) residential property. The
closest residential property boundary is at least 600 feet from the proposed facility and the
homes built on the residential properties are even further away from the facility. The
facility will be enclosed by a fence and buffer.
ANALYSIS.
Based on a review of the record including the Petition, application, exhibits, the County's staff
report, and hearing comments and testimony from the Petitioner and/or the Petitioner's
representative(s), County staff and any given by the public, the Hearing Examiner finds that there
is enough competent, substantial evidence as applied to the criteria set forth in Section 10.08.00.D
of the Land Development Code to approve Petition.
