Requested Action        (Identify appropriate Action or Motion)

The applicant, John Pindar, is requesting approval of a parking variance from Section 265-50 for a property located at 2 South Federal Highway.

 

Description of Action

The subject site is the old Bank of Dania building located on the southwest corner of Federal Highway and West Dania Beach Boulevard.  The property has two adjoining buildings onsite. The other building is occupied by a cigar lounge and retail shop.  The overall site is non-conforming with regard to parking.  The total onsite parking count is ten spaces.  The subject building was previously occupied by a cellular phone retail store, which would have required a total of 4 parking spaces.  The current tenant is proposing to use the space for a school for bartending and casino dealing.  The proposed use is a specialty school which is permitted in the CC zoning district, but requires a much higher parking rate than retail.  Based on the floor plan provided, the school requires 11 parking spaces.  There does not appear to be adequate room to provide additional onsite parking spaces.  Therefore, the applicant is requesting a variance for the 7 additional parking spaces required by the change of use.
