Joe Grade cutting through what was still dense pine and scrub forest. Until then, it had been a narrow road called St. Palm Coast Parkway was last widened to four lanes west of Belle Terre Parkway in 1980. “Obviously we don’t want a 100-foot restaurant,” he said. “This is a medical campus,” Chiumento said, with some retail and commercial uses–classrooms, a bagel shop, “possibly even a hotel to support overnight stays.” He said the 100-foot use would be limited to a hospital. Michael Chiumento, the Palm Coast attorney representing Allete, said the project has been in the works for a year, though Tuesday’s step was only the first before the council, what he compared to a 30,000-foot view of what’s ahead. Everything else in the agreement will be “interpreted in light of those two terms, medical campus, and that will be enforced by the city, because any development out there has to be consistent, as you see in your ordinance, with this agreement.” “The market tends to dictate what uses come.” (Any site plan that’s over 100,000 square feet would have to be brought to the council for approval.)īill Reischmann, the city attorney, said the development agreement is a contract between the developer and the city that sets out–and limits–uses on the acreage, as outlined in the agreement. The uses on the property are “consistent with what’s found on Palm Coast Parkway already,” Jose Papa, the city’s lead planner on the project,m said. “Any building 100 feet tall in this town, unless it’s a hospital, I don’t see the need for it, I need that to be clear, or clarified.” “I would like to have some guarantees that we’re not going to build anything other than health-related buildings,” he said.
The development agreement drew little discussion or questions from council members, with Eddie Branquinho’s exception.
1, are early markers in the city’s eventual expansion west. The medical campus, like Sawmill Creek, the residential development at the north end of U.S. 1 a decade and a half ago and approved three developments of regional impact there: as older lots fill in within the previous boundaries of the city, those developments are expected to sprout. The city annexed vast swaths of acreage west of U.S. The project is called South Palm Coast Park, though as as Perry Mitrano, a city resident who addressed the council to applaud the proposal, said, the designation is a bit of a misnomer that could confuse residents, since it falls in the area that the city itself designates as West Palm Coast. (See below.) A reference to an allowable sheriff’s operations center was deleted: no such development is projected there, and the sheriff is not looking for an operations center location, having settled on a parcel in Bunnell. The development may include “a mixed-use commercial development comprised of (i) a medical campus, which may include but not be limited to a hospital, medical offices, laboratories, primary care center, urgent care center, a wellness center, outpatient surgery center, educational facilities, other medical-related uses, and ancillary retail and restaurant uses,” according to the development agreement. Tuesday’s step was the ratification of a development agreement, which outlines the actual uses, standards and conditions for development of the property. It has since been rezoned to “master-planned development,” giving the city an additional measure of control over development there. The acreage was previously zoned industrial, and under that designation would have developed as a mirror of Hargrove Grade’s light industrial zoning a few blocks north. The land is owned by Allete properties, the developer–through Jeff Douglas of Douglas Properties–of several projects in Town Center.
