It is requested that the Planning and Zoning Board conduct a public hearing to consider a zoning classification change from RU-1-13 (Single-Family Residential) and RU-2-10 (Medium-Density Multiple-Family Residential) to RU-2-15 (Medium-Density Multiple-Family Residential).

Summary Explanation and Background:
The applicant is requesting a zoning change for two adjacent parcels from RU-1-13 (Single-Family Residential) and RU-2-10 (Medium-Density Multiple-Family Residential) to RU-2-15 (Medium-Density Multiple-Family Residential) to permit the development of up to 17 multi-family units. The combined area of the two parcels is approximately 1.14 acres.
Currently, one parcel is vacant, while the other contains a single-family residence that the applicant intends to demolish if the rezoning is approved to accommodate redevelopment. The properties are located on the north side of Coral Way East, a county-maintained roadway, approximately 477 feet west of North Highway A1A.
Both parcels are part of the Plat of Eden Estates, recorded in Plat Book 10, Page 29, of the Brevard County Official Records on December 5, 1950. The properties were reclassified to their current zonings under Ordinance 73-13, adopted on August 7, 1973. If the request to RU-2-15 is approved, both lots will be in compliance with the minimum required lot width, depth, and size requirements.
RU-2-15 encompasses lands devoted to medium-density multifamily residential purposes, together with such accessory uses as may be necessary or are normally compatible with residential surroundings. RU-2-15 permits multiple-family residential uses or single-family residences at a density of up to 15 units per acre on 7,500 square foot lots. Resort dwellings permitted use in the RU-2-15 zoning classification.
Residential 15 (RES 15) was the original Future Land Use (FLU) designation for the subject property as established by the Brevard County Comprehensive Plan on September 8, 1988.
The subject property is within the septic moratorium area. The subject parcel may contain aquifer recharge soil. The mapped topographic elevations show that the property falls within a Type 3 Aquifer Recharge area, which is subject to impervious area restrictions. The applicant is hereby notified of the development and impervious restrictions within Conservation Element Policy 10.2 and the Aquifer Protection Ordinance.
North of the subject property is a duplex on a 0.18-acre parcel zoned RU-1-13 with RES 15 FLU, and a duplex on a 0.18-acre parcel zoned RU-2-10 with a RES 15 FLU. South of the subject property, across Coral Way East, is a six (6) unit condominium on a 0.4-acre parcel zoned RU-2-15 with a RES 15 FLU, and a four (4) unit townhome development on a 0.4-acre parcel zoned RU-2-10 with RES 15 FLU. East of the subject property is a single-family residence on a 0.57-acre parcel zoned RU-2-10 with RES 15 FLU. West of the subject property is an undeveloped, 0.57-acre parcel zoned RU-2-15 with RES 15 FLU.
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, July 09, 2026, beginning at 5:00 p.m. The meeting will be held at the Brevard County Government Center, 2725 Judge Fran Jamieson Way, Building C, Commission Room, Viera, Florida.
