BACKGROUND:
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
Please note this report will cover both the CUP 24-000202 and SDP 24-000200. The applicant withdrew the variance petition referenced in the application and cover letter.
An application has been submitted for approval of a conditional use permit to have three (3) two-bedroom units (mixed use) on the upper level at the building located 287 N. Collier Blvd, Marco Island. A companion site development permit application has been submitted for 287 N. Collier Blvd, Marco Island. The applicant’s request also includes an Off Street Parking Lease and Pedestrian Interconnect Agreement (the “Agreement”) between the owners of both 287 N. Collier Blvd. and 297 N. Collier Blvd. (the La Mesa Taqueria Site). The La Mesa Taqueria Site development plan was previously approved for 84 seats. If the CUP and SDPA are approved, with the proposed Agreement, the Owner of the La Mesa Taqueria Site would be allowed to increase the seating capacity at the restaurant to 120 seats. Any changes to 297 N. Collier Blvd. to allow for the additional seating would require a separate application and a separate approval. Please find attached the applications, plans and draft Agreement.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of the conditional use permit CUP 24-000202 application for the property located at 287 N. Collier Blvd., Marco Island, with the following findings and conditions:
FINGINGS
1. The proposed conditional use will not adversely affect the public interest. This site meets the requirements governing the individual use.

3. The existing building has ingress/egress, and the parking area is sufficient to accommodate the traffic generated from the business and proposed residential on-site.

5. The physical building will not be changed and will remain as the building currently exists, and as the building has existed for decades since construction. The aesthetics of the existing building is in-line with the times in which it was permitted and is not measurably different that the nearby structures.
