Summary:
The applicant is requesting Major Site Plan and Building Design in order to construct approximately 64,000 square foot three-level venue with a restaurant, bar, entertainment and event space including three climate-controlled, partially enclosed levels of golf ball hitting bays and an outfield with electronic targets. The proposed location of the facility is abutting Race Track Road, Lucky Lane, and Isle of Capri Blvd and is currently a vacant site with trees and water retention. The site area (11 acres) is part of a 222-acre Planned Development that is partially developed. The total lot coverage of the site is 11.8%.
The property has a Regional Activity Center (RAC) land use designation and a Zoning designation of Planned Commercial Development (PCD), which permits the Commercial Recreation and Accessory Uses. The site plan was most recently reviewed by the Development Review Committee on April 20, 2022 and received Development Order from the Architectural Appearance Committee on June 7, 2022.
The district was rezoned to a Planned Commercial Development with an adopted master plan in 2020 (Ordinance 2021-02). The following are ongoing/ active developments consistent with the master plan, with the status:
• A Future Golf Facility (21-12000046) is on this same Planning and Zoning Board Agenda for consideration of the major site plan.
• The Industrial Site Plan development (21-12000035) of the PCD was approved by the Planning & Zoning Board at the meeting in May 2022.
• The Casino expansion is ongoing (Smoking Terrace, Building Addition, Rear Deck Enclosure), and the Parking Garage (20-12000004), which is nearly complete.
• There are two projects for the internal roadway improvements (Lucky Lane and Palm Aire Drive), which have received Minor Development Orders and received building permits.
