Summary Explanation and Background:
The applicant is seeking to merge an existing 112-unit PUD, River Fly-In PUD, which is under construction together with a 15.47-acre riverfront tract to provide an 18 wet-slip residential/recreational marina (17-power boat slips and 1-sailboat slip) as an additional recreational amenity for that community. Residents will access the marina via existing 5-foot and proposed 6-foot-wide elevated boardwalks. The current PUD was approved with a Binding Development Plan (BDP) for short-term rentals that clarifies the uses in the PUD, consistent with Section 62-1841.5.5 of Brevard County Code, concerning Resort Dwellings use. That BDP was approved by the Board under 20PZ00019 on May 20, 2020, and was recorded in ORB 8746, Pages 182-187. This site includes two previous BDPs recorded under ORB 7182, Page 1198 on August 6, 2014, and ORB 5648, Page 7252 on May 22, 2006. The PUD’s existing residential tower was developed at 8.6 units per acre upon the original 13+ acres. No new residential units are proposed within the expanded PUD. The Code states a residential/recreational marina can provide community dockage serving subdivisions, condominiums or private organizations having three to 30 slips, inclusive. No fueling, wastewater pump out or repair facilities are associated with these marinas.
To the north, across Cone Road, is a developed county park, Veterans Memorial Park (approximately 34.75 acres) and immediately abutting the property are three single-family lots; two zoned General Use (GU) and one zoned Single-family Residential (RU-1-11) (3-residential lots of total approximately 0.9 acres). To the south is a 12.89.76-acre parcel with IU zoning developed as office/industrial use and a 106.95-acre airport. To the east is the Banana River.
To the west, across Kemp Street, is an 8.4-acre Brevard County facility with GML zoning; site uses include park maintenance and Brevard County Sign Shop.
The Board may wish to consider whether the request is consistent and compatible 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.
