Summary Explanation and Background:
The applicant is requesting a change of zoning classification from RVP (Recreational Vehicle Park) on 19.8 acres to BU-2 ( Retail, Warehousing and Wholesale Commercial) to build a mini storage facility with an office and RV storage yard. The applicant states the proposed finished site would include 357 covered RV parking spots, 96 mini storage units, and one 300 sq. ft. office building. The property's current configuration has remained the same since the earliest recorded deed available from February 11, 1982. The subject parcel has access to Tucker Ln., a county-maintained roadway.
There is also a Small-Scale Comprehensive Plan Amendment (SSCPA) companion application, 25SS00005 to change the Future Land Use Element from Residential 15 (RES 15) to Community Commercial (CC). This request, if approved, would provide consistency with the requested zoning of BU-2.
The RVP recreational vehicle park zoning classification encompasses lands devoted for recreational vehicle, tent, park trailer and cabin use together with such ancillary structures as allowed to promote a recreational type atmosphere for both park owners and/or their guests. Outdoor storage of an RV is permitted within a designated area on the property. RVP zoning does not allow for mini storage facilities.
The BU-2 retail, warehousing and wholesale commercial zoning classification encompasses lands devoted to general retail and wholesale business, contracting and heavy repair services and warehousing activities. Outdoor storage and mini-warehouses are permitted with conditions. BU-2 zoning classification requires a principal structure of at least 300 square feet.
The proposed zoning can be considered an introduction and intensification in the area, as the abutting classifications include GML, AU, GU, and RVP. The Board may wish to consider mitigating the potential incompatibilities and introduction by limiting the use to only a storage facility with an office building and RV storage.
North of the subject property is two (2) parcels: one is developed as an RV park, 12 acres with RVP zoning classification and RES 15 FLU. A second parcel is 6 acres, vacant with GML zoning classification and PUB FLU. South of the subject property is one parcel, 20 acres, vacant property that has a lake, with GU zoning classification and RES 15 FLU. East of the subject property is one parcel 8.16 acres, developed with a detached garage and a lake with AU zoning classification and RES 15 FLU. Also located east is Tucker Lane. West of the subject property is one parcel 39.89 acres, vacant with AU zoning classification and RES 15 FLU.
Since the submittal of the application, the applicant has informed Staff of their intent to submit a Binding Development Plan (BDP) that limits the BU-2 use to outdoor storage and mini-warehouse, while retaining all BU-1 uses. The Board may wish to consider if the request is satisfactory for mitigating FLUE Policy 2.2. compatibility and if it’s consistent with the surrounding area.
The Board of County Commissioners with consider the request on Thursday, August 07, 2025, 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.
