The Project will not create physical blight The Project's design enhances the surrounding
neighborhood, provides 1 66 acres of open space that serves as landscaping buffers along
Wabash Avenue and Citrus Avenue The Project does not conflict with the predominant uses
present in the surrounding areas, as the Project site abuts established residential developments to
the north, west, and south, and provides improvements that blend in with and enhance the
surrounding conununity through the use of landscaped buffers along the public right-of-way, the
maintenance of open space, the preservation and relocation of Canary Island Date Palin trees
within the site, and the planting of new trees on the Project site
The Project developer will make improvements to facilitate implementation of the
Project, including the widening of roads along the project for Wabash Avenue, Highland
Avenue, and Citrus Avenue
The Project would upgrade water, sewer, and stone drain infrastructure and provide
comnections to existing City infrastructure Utilities will be placed underground The Project
developer is required to fund its fair share allocation of any necessary public infrastructure
associated with development of the Project
As determined i1 the Socio-Economic Cost/Benefit Study, annually, the Project will
provide an annual "new net" revenue of 580,637 to the City upon occupancy, and annual
ongoing costs of approximately 550,720 This equates to a revenue/cost ratio of a positive factor
of 1 59 For every dollar it spends, the City will receive 51 59 m revenue
Because the Project will expand the City's economic base by increasing property tax
revenues, and provide for the development of new housing within the City, provide the
infrastructure necessary to meet Project needs in an efficient and cost effective manner, and
place an emphasis on design and landscaping, the City finds that the Project will not create
unimitigatable physical blight within the City or overburden public services, including without
limitation police and fire protection services
B THE BENEFITS TO THE CITY RESULTING FROM DEVELOPMENT OF THE
PROJECT OUTWEIGH ANY DIRECT COST TO THE CITY THAT MAY RESULT
The Socio-Economic Cost/Benefit Study demonstrates that, annually, the Project will generate
"new net" revenues of approximately $80,637 and approximately $50,720 in cost and have a
positive balance of$29,916 For every dollar the City spends in providing services to the Project,
the City will receive $1 59 in "new net" revenue
The Project would provide for the development of forty (40) residential lots and
landscaped buffers along the public right-of-way Schools will be enhanced with the payment of
school fees Further, with the additional revenue provided to the City through increased property
tax assessment, and the payment of development impact fees, direct and indirect funding will be
provided for cultural enhancements, downtown district enhancements, park enhancements,
