Summary Explanation and Background:
The applicant is requesting a change of zoning classification from RU-1-7 (Single-family residential) to RU-1-11 (Single-family Residential) to develop a single-family residence. The subject property is 0.45 acres and is located on a county maintained right of way.
The area is established with older homes built prior to 1971. The Brevard County Comprehensive plan was established in 1988 and designated the area as RES 4. This request will recognize existing development trends and provide consistency per Sec. 62-1255 with the Future Land Use (FLU) designation. RES 4 is not consistent with the RU-1-7 zoning classification.
The adjacent property to the north is owned by the same owner; however, it is the subject of a separate application made by a different applicant who is requesting the same zoning classification (application 24Z000048).
North of the subject property is a 0.30 acre vacant lot with zoning classification RU-1-7. It is being considered for a rezoning under application 24Z00048. South of the subject property is a 0.46 acre vacant lot with zoning classification RU-1-7. East of the subject property, across Orange Ave, is a single-family home built on a 0.33 acre lot and built in 1961 with zoning classification RU-1-7. West of the subject property is a 0.22 acre vacant lot improved with a single-family home built in 1961 and zoned RU-1-7. Also west of the subject is a second lot 0.23 acres in size and improved with a single-family home built in 1961.
RU-1-7 classification permits single family residences on minimum 5,000 square foot lots with minimum width of 50 feet and depth of 100 feet. The minimum house size is 700 square feet.
The proposed RU-1-11 classification permits single family residences on a minimum 7,500 square foot lot, with a minimum width and depth of 75 feet. The minimum house size is 1,100 square feet. RU-1-11 does not permit horses, barns, or horticulture.
The Board may wish to consider if the request is consistent and compatible with the surrounding area.
The Board of County Commissioners will consider the request on Thursday, December 12, 2024, beginning at 5:00 p.m. The meeting will be held at the Brevard County Government Center, 2725 Judge Fran Jamieson Way, Commission Room, Viera, Florida.
