Development Review Committee Minutes May 22, 2025
A. Dairy Queen and Restaurant - Final Site Plan Approval - 2953 Howland
Blvd.
Brandon Hatch spoke regarding Final Site Plan Application SP24-0010, received by staff
on July 1, 2024. The application proposes the construction of a 2,617-square-foot Dairy
Queen restaurant and drive through with a 2,042-square-foot sit down restaurant, located at
2953 Howland Boulevard within the C-1, Retail Commercial Zoning District. After five
rounds of review, staff, the City’s traffic consultant, and Volusia County have deemed the
Final Site Plan acceptable for approval. Staff finds that Application SP24-0010 complies
with the City of Deltona's Land Development Code, Comprehensive Plan, and applicable
Florida Statutes.
Staff recommends approval of the Final Site Plan, subject to the conditions outlined in the
revised Development Order, which includes updates based on Fire Department comments.
7. NEW BUSINESS:

Applicant Felipe Silva stated that he intends to construct a tiki hut to be used as a dining
hall, with a food truck on-site to prepare food and juices.
Brandon Hatch, Planner I, informed the applicant that a Combination of Lots application
would be required. He advised the applicant to review applicable sections of the Land
Development Code. Mr. Hatch also explained that a fully functioning, permanent restroom
facility would be required, and portable restrooms would not be permitted.
A discussion occurred regarding security of the tiki hut. The applicant stated that all
supplies would be securely stored inside the locked food truck.
Deputy Utility Director James Parrish advised the applicant to contact the Volusia County
Health Department regarding septic system requirements, as sanitary sewer service is not
available in the area.
B. 561 N. SR 415 - Storage Facility and Retail - Pre-application Meeting
Applicant Daniel Petroski stated that he would like to construct a storage facility. He
expressed that he is not interested in annexing into the City of Deltona and has concerns
regarding the permitted uses within the Osteen Mixed Use Village (OMV) zoning
designation.
Planning Manager, Matthew West explained that a warehouse or storage facility is not a
permitted use under the Joint Planning Agreement (JPA) zoning for the OMV area.

Development Review Committee Minutes May 22, 2025
Member Smith informed the applicant that the City is obligated to adhere to JPA standards
in coordination with Volusia County. He advised that annexation into the City would be
required if the applicant intends to connect to City utilities to support the proposed
business.
Deputy Utility Director James Parrish informed the applicant that both sanitary sewer and a
water main are located near the property. He added that a private lift station would be
necessary to connect to the City’s utility infrastructure.
C. 605 Courtland Boulevard- Commercial Building with Drive-Thru -
Pre-Application Meeting
Alternate Entwistle explained that a Subdivision Exemption application would be required if
the applicant wishes to create a standalone parcel. She also advised the applicant to
review Section 75-1 of the Land Development Code for Final Site Plan submittal
requirements.
Discussion took place regarding parking and the connection to potable water.
Member Grosvenor discussed the applicable parking and drive aisle requirements for the
proposed development.
D. 210 Little Palm Drive - Single Family Homes - Pre-Application Meeting
Applicant Piercyn Sanchez proposed a residential community consisting of lots ranging
from 40 to 50 feet in width. Chair Wallace confirmed that the property is located in
unincorporated Volusia County and noted that she was unaware of any formal approvals
from the County.
Deputy Utility Director James Parrish explained that utility service would be provided by the
City of Deltona and would need to be extended to serve the proposed community.
Mr. Sanchez inquired whether staff would support an increase in site density.
Member Smith stated that the proposed lot sizes are inconsistent with the surrounding area
and that the development must comply with the Enterprise Local Plan. He indicated that
staff would support a rezoning to either RE-1 or RPUD, with a minimum lot size of one acre.
Discussion followed regarding setbacks, lot size requirements, and the process for
submitting a Comprehensive Plan Amendment and Rezoning application.
Chair Wallace opened public comment.
Steven Becker, a resident of Sheryl Drive, stated that his property is near the proposed
development and expressed that the proposal does not align with the Future Land Use

designation of the area.

B. 561 N. SR 415 - Storage Facility and Retail - Pre-application Meeting
Background: Applicant: Daniel Petroski
Project Name: N/A
Project Type: Annexation
Project Acreage: 0.34-acre
Current FLU: Volusia County Osteen Mixed Use Village
Current Zoning: Volusia County Osteen Mixed Use Village
Reference: N/A
Tax Parcel No.: 9207-05-00-0027
Property Location: 561 N. SR 415, Osteen, FL 32764
Background: The applicant is interested in building a storage
facility with RV covered spots and retail shop.
Staff Comments:
· Access and FDOT permitting. As currently functioning, the site
is limited to right turning movements. To introduce left turning
movements would require FDOT approval to modify the median.
Without a median modification, large RVs and boat trailers
would need to make u-turns at the median openings north and
south of the site which is not desirable. A median modification
to allow left turning movements does not appear to meet FDOT
median opening spacing requirements.
· Coordination with Volusia County regarding the JPA is
City of Deltona Page 3 Printed on 5/20/2025
Development Review Committee Agenda May 22, 2025
necessary.
· Architectural standards may be applied to proposed buildings
on the site. Architectural standards may include building colors,
façade treatments, roof design and glazing.
· PUD zoning would be the appropriate zoning process. RV and
personal storage, however, do not appear to be uses consistent
with Mixed Use Village land use. Staff is not likely to support the
storage use. Any development on the site must be consistent
with the Osteen Local Plan.
· Wetlands and water appear to cover the eastern portion of the
property. Further environmental analysis will be required during
the process.
· The following code sections should be consulted to process the
annexation, rezoning, comprehensive plan amendment
and site plan applications:
· Chapter 75 - Site Plan requirements.
· Section 110 - Zoning Permitted Uses
· Section 110-1101 - Amendments to the Official Zoning
Map and Comprehensive Plan Amendments Procedures.
· Section 98 - Wetland Protection regarding wetland
buffers and requirements.
· Section 110-319 - PUD’s which has new requirements.
Staff can provide that to you by email, as it has not been
updated online yet.
· Will require a Final Plat application for a subdivision,
review Section 106-31.
· Section 74 - new requirements for a community meeting
before any public hearings can be scheduled.
· Section 110-808 - Landscaping requirements
· Section 110-828 - Off-street parking and loading
· Section 110-829 - Off-street circulation, parking
dimensions, and loading facilities.
