Summary Explanation and Background:
The applicant requests a Small-Scale Comprehensive Plan Amendment (SSCPA) to change the Future Land Use Map from Residential 1:2.5 (RES 1:2.5) on a one (1) acre lot. The applicant has a companion rezoning application, 24Z00068, requesting a change from GU to RR-1. Approval of the request will provide consistency with the requested zoning classification.
The subject property’s current configuration was recorded in the Canaveral Groves Subdivision Survey Book 2, Page 59 dated October 1961.
The subject property retains the original FLU designation established in 1988 by the Brevard County Comprehensive Plan. The Residential 1:2.5 land use designation, which establishes the lowest density of all the residential future land use designations, permits a maximum density of up to one (1) unit per 2.5 acres. The requested Residential 1 land use designation permits low density residential development with a maximum density of up to one (1) unit per acre. Since the inception noted above, the subject property has been substandard to the lot size of the FLU.
The subject parcel is located north of Erie St. on the east side of Shawnee PL, approximately one-half mile south of Canaveral Groves Blvd.
To the north is a 1.02 acre parcel developed as a single-family residence with GU zoning and RES 1:2.5 FLU designation. To the south are three, one (1) acre lots with AU or GU zoning with RES 1:2.5 designation. Two lots are vacant (one with AU and the other with GU zoning) and one has a single-family residence with GU zoning. To the east is a single-family residence on 1.01 acres with GU zoning and RES 1:2.5 designation. To the west is a single-family residence on 1.01 acre with GU zoning and RES 1:2.5 designation.
The Board may wish to consider if the request is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and compatible with the surrounding area.
On February 17, 2025, the Local Planning Agency heard the request and unanimously recommended approval.
Clerk to the Board Instructions:
Once filed with the State, please return a copy of the executed Ordinance to Planning and Development.
